The BALTIMORE SUN says: "Fair
play is jewel, which high-minded
men will preserve without regard to
consequences" But is it fair play for
man to 60 into party convention on
az equal footing with others, and then
to bolt the action of that convention
because it does not exactly agree with
all of his own ideas? Is not such q
man like the one who plays cards to
win, but refuses to pay when he

ONE OF the distinguishing character.
istics Of foolish people is their inability
to know when they have got enough.
Notwithstanding the sockdolagers Gov.
ernor O'Ferrall has received, and
which he needlessly provoked, he has
put himself in a position to get another,
and worse one, which will doubtless be
inflicted in due time. Why man 30
VIGOROUSLY vulnerable as he is, should
invite retaliation is passing strange to
those who don't know him.

WHAT WITH the garbage from Wash
ington that is dumped on the opposite
Maryland shore, and the night.soil de-
posted on the truck patches, and the
pig sites, south of this city, why real
typhus, instead of typhoid, fever,
doesn't prevail here is what provi-
dence, and not the police authorities,
may be thanked for. The continued
evils referred to are a shame and re-
proach to the city government and

A SENSATIONAL ENCoUNTER.-A
rather sensational difficulty occurred
in Lynchburg on Saturday afternoon
between two prominent citizens. They
were Major Stephen P. Halsey, VOL
known tobacconist, and Mr.. o. B.
Barker, senior member of the whole
sale hardware house of the Barker.Jen.
nings Hardware Company. Mr.. Bark.
er was one of the members of the jury
who in the trial of the suit brought by
Major Halsey against T. P. Jose and
Sons, of England, refused 10 agree in
giving Major Halsey damages. Satur-
day afternoon Major Halsey went to
Mr.. Barker's place of business and be.
gan using language in regard to MIR.
Barker's attitude on the jury, that Mr..
Barker resented. In the course Of the
difficulty that followed, Major Halsey
was knocked down two or three times
and then Mr.. Barker held the Major
while policeman was sent for. Before
the officer arrived, however, Mr.. Bark
or released Major Halsey and the lat
ter took his departure. The affair was
reported to the police authorities and
summons will be issued for the appear
auce of the two gentlemen at the May
or's court on Tuesday or Wednesday
morning.

MONDAY EVENING. SEPT. IS 1897.

1T Is REPORTED that the new U. ..
minister to Spain is instructed TO DE-
msnd that this government shall be al
lowed to take part in etfecting settle
ment of the differences that exist be-
tween Spain and her insurgent subjects
in Cuba. If this be so, then 1t is more
than likely that he will be given his
passports at once, for few governments
able to resent an insult, would patiently
submit to such an one. This govern
ment pretended to look upon the Con-
federates as insurgents. The war the
latter maintained was of much longer
duration than that wsged by the negro
and scalawag Cuban insurgents, but
what would have been thought IN
Washington if any foreign nation had
demanded part in the settlement OF
the differences between the North ana
the South? But foolish people can't
nut themselves in others places.

GOV. o'FERRALL's REJoINDER

GOV. O'FERRALL'S REJOlNDER.
As stated in Saturdays GAZETTE
Governor O'Ferrsll has published re-
joinder to Senator Daniels reply to the
Governors recent interview concerning
the Senator's course at the Chicago
convention.
The Governor takes issue with Sen.
ator Daniel in the latter's statement
that the Chicago platform did not con-
denim President Cleveland's course in
sending troops to Chicago in 1894;
makes long argument in support Of
his side of the contention; refers to
Senator Daniels attitude regarding
criticism of the Supreme Court, and
sums up what he terms the Senator's
inconsistencies, as follows:
He discarded his greenback and fiat
money theory, which he insisted was
the only salvation of the country, and
adopted the silver miners forty or fifty
cent dollar as the panacea for all the ills
OF labor and agriculture.
He cast aside the idea of repeating
the internal revenue act and allowing
the protective tariff to stand in behalf
of which he made numerous speeches
and accepted the true democratic doc
trine,
He now forsakes the tariff plank of
1892 and clings to the tariff plank of
the Chicago convention, denounced as
unsound by Senators Vest and Mills.
He endorsed the State platform of
1898 for q good silver dollar by and
through International agreement or
legislative safeguards, and instantly
took the stump in favor of throwing
open our minis to all the silver of the
globe at 16 to / without agreement or
safeguards. He fought populism in 1898
and 1895, coalesced with it In 1896, and
at the Roanoke convention in 1897
quietly sat by and heard q populist put
in nomination and receive 298 votes for
the place of lieutenant governor on the
ticket.
In conclusion the Governor says:
"Free, unlimited aud independent
coinage oil silver is doomed, and no
strong political party of the present or
future will ever put itself to death by
declaring for it in national convention.
The democratic party will return to her
mOOrings,"

Their case is at present "sub judice,"
legal condition which prevents any.
thing being done until further advance
is made. The prevailing sickness
on the island WAS touched upon. Both
yellow fever and smallpox are carry
ing off many victims at Havana and
through the interior, and the week be-
fore General Lee left there were thirty
deaths from yellow fever at Havana, of
which far the greater number was
among the troops. AS to whether Gen.
Lee will return to Cuba. no definite in
formation could he secured. 1t is said
to depend much on circumstances
which have not yet developed, and it
ia probable that neither the Consul
General nor the officials are as yet GER
tain. concerning his future movements.
AS the Cabinet meeting will be held to.
morrow. it is thought that Gen. Lee
will not be called to Washington until
Wednesday or later.
Judson Lyons, the Georgia negro
member of the republican national com.

mastership at Augusta, Ga. He denied
published reports that a conference was

in favor of W. II. Stallings, and to
Lyons subsequent appointment as Reg.
lister of the Treasury. He stated that
he was still candidate for the Augusta
postofice and for that only, and that he
had not contemplated Withdrawing or
seeking Treasury position. W. II.
johnson, of Atlanta, o. 8 marshal, con-
frmed Lyons's statement. The various
parties to the controversy were at the
Postof1ce Department. The Augusta
has been in allegiance since
last March owing to the contest.

Miss Inez Hill, is years old, who left

September 9Th, and who the Washing

Twenty.four persons, mainly specta-
tors of the great blast at Panuetas quar-
~, on the Vera Cruz Railway, Mexico,
were instantly killed on Saturday. The
blast went of and the people rushed
forward to see the effect, when gases in
the air ignited, causing an explosion
with terrible results. Two cavalry
men were on guard and were killed
with their horses. Many people were
wounded. The quarry supplies rock
for Vera Cruz harbor improvements.
It is more than probable that the
body found in Kellogg's woods, near
Laurel, Md, is that of Mark A. G.
Cliff, IT,, son Of Mr.. Mark A. G. Cliff,
of Baltimore. Cliff, who drank heavily
at times, had been employed in Nor
folk, and on the morning of August 1st
left his wife, who was then i'll, saying
that he would return later in the day.
Since then she has seen nothing of him.
The wife thinks death resulted from
exposure. Gift and his wife had spent
three weeks in Laurel several years
ago.
