last Tuesday. 1t would have been had
Alonzo Phillips been treated fairly in
convention. And its success could have
been insured later on in the campaign if
it hadn't been for few men whose dis
reputable tactics prevented settlement
of the question as to whose name should
be placed on the printed ballot as the
nominee of the Democracy for sheriff

That Nestor of Minnesota Democracy,
Hon. Michael Doran. of st. Paul, was Il
Lind. He wagcred $4,000 that he wouIh
carry the state by 10000 majority over
Eustis, and won $4,000 from cnthusi-
astic supporters of the latter in this
city. No man in the state equals Mr..
Doran as a prognosticator in politics
We congratulate him on winning so
much Republican money in Mime
apOlis.

LIND TRIUmPHANTLY ELECTED.

For the first time in forty years the
Republican party of this state has fail
ed to elect it's candidate for governor
Last Tuesday the fusion forces, who
combined to rescue the state from the
control of rapacious horde of I'M
scrupulous politicians conceded in elect
ing honest John Lind by almost 10000
plurality-a victory which is hailed with
intense qualification by the citizens of
the state irrespective OF political at
fliations.
1t is to be regretted that the people
did not elect state legislature in SYM
pathy with the principles of the reform
forces. and it is to be regretted more
deeply that change was made on the
supreme bench by electing corporation
attorneys in preference to impartial,
able and fearless judges like Mitchell,
Canty and Buck AS it is the election
of John Lind is a matter for congratll-
lation. AS far as in him lies he win adj
minister the laws justly to all interests.
He will stand ready to veto any meas
ures passed in the coming session of
the state legislature that are calculated
to give further privileges to corpora
tions at the expense Of the producing
classes. and his presence in the exc
utive chair will have restraining in
fuence upon the representatives of the
plutocracy. who cannot carry things
high-handed as in former years with
out being exposed by a vigilant cover
nor, who will act as the guardian Of
the peoples rights and protest against
any encroachment upon them.
1t is useless to discuss why John Lind
was elected by such large majority
when the judges for the supreme bench,
the ticket were beaten by Republicans
The Eustis papers attribute it largely
to the Swedish-American vote. I'm
doubtedly that cut quite figure, but
Mr.. Lind did all he possibly could to
keep the nationality question out of
politics. In his last speech in Mime
apolis on the eve of election he spoke
for every candidate on the ticket from
the highest to the lowest and said:
Let us stand or fall together" The
men Of his race certainly took pride in
voting for John Lind, and there is
nothing rcprehcnsble in their action
They did no more than any other ma
tionality would have done under the
same circumstances 1t is human ma.
ture and nothing more.
The Irish Standard is delighted to say
that the IrishAmerican voters stood
loyalty by John Lind from the opening
to the close OF the campaign The fol-
lowers of Eustis expected many Irish
American voters in this city on the ma
tionality claim. but they were doomed
to woeful disappointment. Despite all
efforts to sway them from Lind's sup
port they stood by him faithfully to the
last and worked enthusiastically for the
entire fusion ticket. entirely oblivious to
the religion or race of the candidates
thereon. The Irish Standard feels
highly complimented in having it's ut
teranccs carry such weight with its
voting readers in the campaign, and it
takes this opportunity to thank them
for their adherence to principle,

ENGLAND PREPARING For WAR.

Despite the fact that Frarce has given
up Fashoda there is yet every indica-
ton of proximate conflict between
England and France. In his recent
speech the Marquis of Salisbury ex-
planned that the evacuation of Fashoda
by Maj. Marchand was only in the ma
ture of oil on the troubled waters, thus
lntlmating that peace between the two
countries was not yet assured. Though
France gave up Fashoda she still in
sists on retaining her rights in the Bahr-
El-Ghazal region. Henry Norman, the
London correspondent of the New York
Times, writes of that province as con-
tanning large, healthy, fertile territories,
while it's inhabitants form magnificent
recruiting ground. A traveller there has
declared that Africa could be conquered
by an army raised in Bahr- -Ghazal.
Here Marchand has established seven
posts with armed garrisons, under the
French flag. He has proved that not
only from Tambura but even from Braz-
zaville, on the French Congo, there is
open water communication via the
rivers Yobo and Such to Heshra- El-Rek
the port of the Bahr-El- Ghazal province
whence the way is free to Fashoda,
khartum and Cairo, except one break
OF seventy-siX kilometers between Mere
and Tambura and for this distance he
has constructed rough road, ready to
receive a light railway.
France has lost nothing by departing
from Fashoda, which is described as a
pestilential swamp, swarming with huge
and poisonous mosquitoes where white
mon have to keep their faces and hands
smeered with black stuff for protection
from the pests.
England is arming in hot haste and
France is doing likewise. Saxon and
Celt are likely to engage in naval con-
tlict at any time over African territory
to which neither of them have any legi-
innate title. France is in hysterical
state over the Dreyfus affair, and it is
hard to say what the ministry may do
to prevent it's own dissolution. The
popular course for it to pursue is not to
back down for "periidious Albion" The
sympathy of the people of Ireland has
been expressed with France in the I'M
pending struggle; that of the Mckinley
administration with John Hay as secre-
tary of state would undoubtedly go to
England, but there is no danger that the
United States will take any active part
In the European strife by being an ally
of England against the land of Lafay-
cite and Rochambeau.
England under Salisbury. will try to
avoid any trouble with France. He is
a weak premier, whom Bismarck COM
pared to "a lath painted to look like
iron. The strength of the English
claim rests upon the contention that
the region occupied by the French col
ony belongs to Egypt, and that any tenn
porary alienation from that country by
the successes of the Mahidi gives the
right to France to assume dominion
over it. Up to present writing no dis
position on the part Of either power has
been manifested to yield their preten-
sions to the territory in dispute. One
or the &ther must give away or war be-
tween them is inevitable at any mo-
ment.

4 The Minneapolis Tribune, which is
by all odds the most consistent organ Of
Republicanism in Minnesota, says OF the
governor elect: Mr.. Lind is personally
unobjectionable. He is a man of intelli-
gence, shrewdness and education. If he
make up his mind to be governor of the
whole people. and not of race or 4
clique. he may have successful admin
istration."
Mr.. Lind, in his speeches, declared
that he would be the governor of all the
people and those who heard him be-
lieyed in his sincerity and honesty. He
made no bid for support on the plea OF
race, but spoke as an American patriot
from beginning to end.

The Small Pox Scare Over.

For the benefit of those interested
in GreenvilIe, the people. institu-
tions, business and general affairs of
the city we wish to say that the
smallpox scare is about over. Pa
rents throughout the State who have
children in our schools in Greenvlle
need not feel the least anxiety.
Those students who anticipated COM
ing to GreenvilIe need not fear to
coae any day. We do not believe
they will run any risk; certainly we
would not encourage them to come
to Greenvllle if we thought there was
any danger at all
In view Of the exaggerated rumors
that have been circulated about this
sickness, we wish to state few facts.
About the middle of December case
of smallpox was reported; physicians
visited the patient Several physi-
clans pronounced the sickness small
pox, several others said it was not
These physicians still differ, while a
number of physicians have never ex-
pressed an opinion on the subject
Several members of the family where
the sickness first appeared were
taken down, and the same malady
appeared in another house in the
same neighborbood All these per-

The Wrong Title.

1t is not for us to assert that the
verdict Of the jury in the Newbold

submitted that the title of the case
Estate against Newbold' was in
correct. When the attorney general.
two solicitors, two sberiAs. the su-
perintendent of the penitentiary, two
high dispensary officials and other
minor officials. gathered from various
sections Of the State, ali forming
large part of the government of the
State. are present at trial in the in
terest Of man under felonious
charge, the expression Estate against
=" seems almost absurd. 70 be
sure, it may be answered that these
officials were commanded to be pres
ent as witnesses but it was such
"cloud of witnesses" as never gath-
cred in court room before, we dare
guess, in South Carolina 1t is
strange to us-though there may be
explsnation-tbat these witnesses
should have come so exclusively
from official circles It is moreover,
passing strange that in behalf of this
man who is late of Texas, no afida-
Wits were introduced bearing upon
his reputation in Texas. We should
naturally suppose that man occupy
ing 80 lofty position in the esteem
and, we may say, affection of the
most distinguished South Carolinians,
