Governor Altgeld says: During
the war the government contracted
with it's soldiers and agreed to pay
them from $13 to R16 a month.
Nothing Was said about the kind of
money they should be paid in and
the government paid them in the
cheapest money it had. Ii the bond
holders are to Re paid in the dearest
money known certainly common
justice requires that the government
make good 10 the old soldiers the
difference between the value of the
cheap money it paid them and the
dearer money which it now proposes
to give to the money lender.

DEAR SIR:-The Salisbury Orches-
ira gave US, l believe truly, the best
entertainment ever given in Harri-
sonville. Every member is an artist
Of high order. Their music was
superb and very popular. The quar-
tette consists of the sweetest voiced
singers l ever heard.
Another excellent feature is that
they are ladies and gentlemen in the
true meaning of the terms. l do not
believe a better class of people can
be found in the business.
l most heartily recommend them TO
you and guarantee you will want
them to make another date for you.
We could sell over 100 more tickets if
they could come again.
Very respectfully,

Suicide or Accident.

Z. j. Matthias, a commercial tray
eler for the Southern Stove Works,
of Evansville, Ind died at the Tai
mage House in Rich Hill very sud
denly last Friday. The Review says:
Arrived at the hotel, he secured
lodging, and arose this morning at
the customary hour, apparently as
we'll and cheerful as any man in the
house. At $3.50 o'clock he was en-
gagged in pleasant conversation with
one OF the guests. A few seconds
later he was seized with conyulsions
and in 20 minutes more was a
corpse. As soon as noticed that he
was sick, he was assisted to a room
and Drs. Allen and Hulett were
called in.
DR.. Renick arrived on the noon
train and at once proceeded to inves
tigate the tragedy.
The following jury was empannel-
led: J. Fl. Christie, j. A. Payne, ".
G.. Beasley, W. G, Beasley, ". G.
Stonsbraker, s. T. Broaddus and G.
A. Clark.
DR.. Allen testified that the man
had three spasms after he was called
in. Asked if he had been drinking,
he admitted that he had taken
couple of drinks last evening. The
symptoms, DR.. Allen said, indicated
strychnine poisoning,
DR.. Hulett corroborated DR.. Al.
lens opinion as to the symptoms of
death. The man was already dead
when DIR. Hulett arrived.
A post norton examination was
made by Drs. Allen and Truck. A
portion of the contents of the stom
ach were removed and sealed I'D in
a jar for future analysis if necessary.
The deceased was well-built fine
looking man, perhaps 80 to 35 years
of age, and would weigh in the
neighbcrhood of 100 pounds. He
had regular features, light brown
hair and a small, reddish mustacba

ter of John Shine. of that county,
has been coughing for two years and
physicians have been treating her

An Investigation of this substance
revealed q rusty needle point one
eighth OF an inch long, which had
been imbeided in the girls throat

She recollects now OF picking

two years ago, and it is supposed
that then the point Of the needle
became fastened il her throat. Since
she coughed the needle up, she has
been entirely relieved Of her cough.

The New York campaiop.

The attempt to hurrah Colonel Roosevelt into the governors chair has broken down. The enthusiasm needed for such cam paign could not be evoked The state is so composite and so free from mere sen- timentality in politics, and the democratic party is so harmonious and so well led it was found impossible to ride the gallant commander of the Rough Riders into office independent of the real issues of the can- vass. Colonel Roosevelt has been forced to the present canvass. He has been forced to defend the Raines bill and in such discussion, he has not car ried himself with his accustomed dash and and he did not win votes.
 It is plain that the taxpayers, both in city and country, who are thoroughly tired of the canal stealings and manipulations of Plattism, will vote for Judge Van Wyck. It is also plain that the German vote will be cast almost solidy against the man who tried to enforce the Raines law. It is also plain that MT. Platt's nominee will not poll all of the mugwump or indepen- dent vote of the state. Not a single inde- pendent democrat will, it is thought, vote against Van Wyck.
 The democratic nominee is pursuing a dignifed course in the canvass. He has no need to defend himself, for not word has been said or can be said, against him personally. His individual and official record is without flaw. The platform he stands on invites the cooperation and support of every democrat, and of every other man who desires clean, good govern ment. Do not be surprised to hear two weeks from next Tuesday that he has been elected by a majority once deemed impos- Sible

Quarantines Present and to Come.

Yesterday mornings fine frost and continuous low temperature have well-nigh dissipated the yellow scourge and all quar- antines will soon be lifted. The Mississippi board of health have officially declared that state open to both freight and passen- ger traffic. When the mercury fell in the afflicted state below 40 degrees, the states doctors declared all quarantines at an end. In Louisiana immigrants are now admit ted; and if people from across the sea can come in, surely people from other states are welcome.
 The few remaining quarantines will doubtless be removed this week. and the gulf states will at once resume business at the old stands, with a vigor and a will that will astonish the natives. This action is fully month earlier than similar action was had last year. The fact is the pres ence of the fever in the central districts of this state was not officially recognized until about this time in October last year. The gain in time and duration of the re- strictions is very important, and all should be thankful for the low temperature that Providence has sent us of late, bringing relief to every part of the gulf states.
 But we should not go on year after year expecting Providence to intervene in our behalf It is our duty to do the best we can to avoid epidemics. The one step that, beyond sanitation, is feasible is a substitution of an efficient quarantine for the inefficient quarantines that have vexed the land in two successive years. The two epidemics have demonstrated the hope lessness of state quarantines in Mississippi state board of health permitted Ocean Springs to accumulate germs of the dis ease all summer long, until they burst all bounds and inflicted untold injury upon this section of country. This year the same board permitted, by its want of vigilance, germs to multiply in Lafayette county at least thirty days before 1t moved a hand fin defense of the people of the state; and by assuming that the negroes of Jackson were immune, it permitted another viruient focus of disease to spring up in the state. In Louisiana, Wilson and Franklin are in- stances of similar want of vigilance. State boards of health, in other words, stand condemned. They have been tried and found wanting. They have cost the south many valuable lives, and millions of dollars Away with them. A national

Extension in the LeuisIa ure.

When the representatives of sixty-six counties in a proud commonwealth take up the Birmingham extension question, their point of view will be very different from the point of view of few hundred people here and there in Jones valley who desire all the benefits of city and none of it's bur dens. They are charged with the interests of nearly two millions of people in broad state full of natural resources. They are proud of the deposits in the hills of the mineral district of the state. They believe that those deposits are to become bless ing that will carry increased prosperity to every part of the state. They will naturally desire to hasten the coming, or rather the sultant effects.
 Can it be hastened and promoted by talk ing from the central city of the district it's true strength, and letting it be frittered away, so far as the outside world is con- cerned, in half dozen petty municipalitiesf Can it be promoted by letting official fg- ures show that the central town of Ala bama's mineral district is, comparatively speaking, a petty city, while Atlanta and Nashville and Memphis are active, hustling anu populous? For that is the story that the census of 1890 tells, and the census or 1900 will tell similar story if few hand fuls of suburban people are permitted to avoid just taxation for benefits received.
 The legislature will assuredly look at the matter in the clear light that distance and patriotism and breadth of view afford With the representatives of the people of the state, the first question will be, which of the many propositions will most benefit will increase property values here or there, or what will save the people of this or that hamlet a few dollars in taxation, nor will they be apt to balance benefits against burdens; but they will surely ask them selves what will best secure to Alabama the credit and the fame and the reputation abroad that the states unrivalled mineral deposits deserve and should command. This will be the question before the legislature
 Alabamas ironmasters have keen rivals in Pennsylvania, Ohio and Illinois; Alabama coal must contend in the lower Mississippi with Pittsburg coal, and elsewhere with West Virginia coal. Anything that strenth- ems and lends credit to the central city that must bear the brunt of these battles, helps Alabama; and it will be strange, indeed, if mingham of the future must be Greater Birmingham, if the people of Jones valley so will it, and so express their will at the polls.
