son Dsmoralized.

New Orleans, Sept. 15.-There is no
change in the fever situation since the
official bulletin of the board of health
last night declared Eve new cases of
yellow fever.
Numerous suspected cases are being
/ reported to the board, bnC many of
them are found to show no trace of
yellow fever. On the streets today
there is no semblanoe of excitement
and business transactions generally
are going: on as usual. 1t is only at
steamer landings and railroad depots
that evidence of the fever scare is
found. at the depots very little
freight is being handled and pssen-
ger business has dwindled to nothing.
The Louisville and Nashville took off
today the through train leaving in
the morning and the through train
arriving in the evening. The Missis-
sippi Valley has withdrawn it's regu-
lar day train to and from Memphis.
DR.. Frederick Lober, eminent physi-
clan and head of the Touro inflrmary,
this afternoon reports one case of yell
low fever in that institution.
THEY ARE ALARMED.
Jackson, Miss, Sept. 15.-The city
is completely demoralIzed and busi-
ness is at a standstIll. People contin-
ued to pour out of the city all last
night and today and by midnight
fully two-thirds of the population will
be gone. Fears as to the suspicious
cases of Edwards, 25 miles distant, are
in no way allayed. DIR. Guiteras, the
government expert, arrived at Ed
wards today at 4 a. N. from Mobile on
a special train. He would make no
statement for publication 1t is un-
derstood, however, Gulteras has al
ready reported to Surgeon General
Wyman and that he confirms several
genuine cases of yellow fever. At
II 80 p. m. Mayor Wharton posted no.

they desired to leave at all.

Atlanta, Sept. 15.-Surgeon General
Walter Wyman has taken steps to es-
tablish strict yellow fever quaran-
tine all along the western boundary of
Georgia and Florida to Tennessee. AS
Florida has already quarantined, this
erects barrier to travel from the in
fected districts all the way from the
gulf to the Tennessee line. DR.. G. NJ.
Drake, former chief surgeon of the
Southern railway, received telegram
from DR.. Wyman asking him to wire
list of the railroad crossings on the

tt is to be hoped that no voter of
Wood county, for any reason, fancied

Legislative ticket-three State Senators,
and one Representative OF whom are

that these Offices should be filed by Re-

the fact that United States Senator
from Ohio must be Republican hence a
Republican legislature is absolutely

1t is announced that one of the first
matters to claim the attention of EN-
bassador Sir Julian Pauncefote on his
return to his post at Washington will
be the negotiation of reciprocity trade
treaties between the United States and
the colonial possessions of Great Britain
England itself is a free trade country
Several of its leading colonies, like
Canada, have, however, passed protect
i've tariff laws for themselves 1t is,
therefore, necessary for reciprocity trea-
ties between them and the United States
TO be agreed ON as if they were indie
pendent countries. Such treaties must
be approved by the British home gov

law that makes new reciprocity treaties

were not excellent; but worse yet, he
did not have the chance he should hay e

seven his mother died, and the boy was

A FRIEND TO THE LABoRER.

1t has alwayes been the ambition of
Mr.. Rankey to help the laboring man
whenever an opportunity offered. Dur
ing the year 1890 he saw that the lum-
Der yard and mill was d paying invest
ment and consequently decided to diyide
profits with his employees and conduct
the business on the cooperative plan,
each laborer that could be induced, be-
coming stockholder, and thus not only
shared the profits but took interest in
working for the good of the company.
which was proven a great success.
No other man in Bowling Green has
eyer done so much for the city as ]. r.
Hankey. He has invested his money
literally as will be evidenced by the
large Hankey block and the opera
house. The latter is not q paying in
yestment, but it is a necessity to the
city for to have place to accommodate
large public gatherings, also a place Of
amusement for the people, Another
one of the city's valuable institutions is
the First National bank, of which ]. r.
Hankey is president and heavy stock
holder. In the oil fields Mr., Hankey
also has INVESTED money and has done
much toward testing and developing
large tracts of doubtful territory, from
which he has been SO lucky as to obtain
nice production. Mr.. Hankey's poll
ticial position is known by all. He is
an uncompromising Republican and is
always found working, not for his own
pecuniary benefit, but for the good ol
the party, and giving literally to helI
the cause along. He has served one
term with credit and can point with
pride to his record as "a fearless, upright
legislator who ever had the best inter
est of his constituents at Leart

The only danger of Republican defeat
in this campaign is in the fact that Re-

get the advantage.
