Much indignation prevails and threats have al- ready been made against Fruit, who has not been seen. Sheriff Mclean, Deputy Frank CaZalas and a number of newspa- per representatives left the city this af- ternoon for the scene. The sheriff had a number of Winchesters with him.

 BUTLER WANTS HARMONY An Effort to Unite Two Political
 Factions.
 .----HH sNH5s. DEMOCRATIC PROPOSITION That the PopuIists Unite With Them in a Pri- mary for County Officers and
 Representative.
PROPOSITION
snecial to The Are.r1ernln.


 Greenvilie, Feb. 1.--There is now feel ing in Butler county that there has been enough political strife. and that it is time for the white people to unite in the cause of harmony and supremacy.
 At meeting of the democratic county executive committee recently a commit tee was appointed to confer with the pop ulst committee. Resolutions embodylng a proposition were also adopted, The plan suggested was that the two parties unite in a primary to select county officers and a representative in the general assembly at the same time, with the utmost pre- cautions to insure fairness. The resolu- tions close as follows:
 ",fhe committee makes the above offers in spirit of fairness actuated by an ear nest and sincere desire to the white people of the county united They feel and believe that we have d common in- terest and that this be best served and promoted by dwelling together in harmony. They depore the fact that in the past there has been turmoil, strife and dissension among the white people of our county. Unless we unite they feel that this state of affairs will continue, and that in the coming election, to argue or attempt to show who has been at fault and who has been right, would simply be opening old sores; that erimination and E reerimination would be the result, and the breach among our people, instead of be- ing closed, would, in the end, be but widened. They believe the people want harmony and not strife They think the plan above suggested will give harmony. They believe it to be the duty of every patriotic citizen to strive to the attainment of this end. The committee trusts and be- lieves that the offers above made will be received and considered by you in the spirit of fairness in which they are made Let us on both sides lay aside all feelings of passion or prejudice and, guided alone Joy spirit of fairness and patriotism do what we can to promote harmony among our people,"

 Sddall being informed by his physicians that he could not recover and in view of his impending dissolution made the follow ing statement before Buah Smith, a mo- tary: 1T met MT. Dock Garden on the street near the little galvanized shop in front of Davis & Bedells store. I was going towards Chambers street en route to the First National bank, and he asked me if had written a paper for Jim Tread well attacking Bill Gardens character for truth and veracity. I told him it was not any of his business what I had done for Jim Treadwell or what paper l had fixed for him. I walked off and left him and had gotten about twenty feet from him when he said: I'll tell you what I am go- ing to do' He walked up to me and struck me in the mouth with his fist, and while was against the post of the veran- da of the Barnes building, l cut at him several times with a small penknife, but don't know whether I cut him or not. He ran off about fifteen feet and I saw the handle of revolver as it come out of his hip pocket ran and he fired shot. I fell down and he fired the second and the third shot struck me while l was lying on the ground. If he fired any more l don't know it.
 Shot in the Back
 q never saw him fire either shot. He was shooting at my back. This is just the exact truth about the matter"
 MT. Charles Taylor asked the wounded man the following questions:
 What was Mir Garden doing when you drew the knife that you spoke about? He replied: "IIe was hitting me in the face with his fist; you see these bruises on my face? I was going to the First National bank to get a check cashed that MT. Wal ter Hoffman had given me-
 Mir H C. Johnson exhibited to him knife which he recognized after 1t had been opened and said it was his knife "l was in a. few feet of the Barnes building when he struck me. I am badly hurt and don't believe will live he concluded.
 The difficulty took place in the heart or the city after 9 o'clock this morning.
