SEVERE FIGHTING

THE recent engagements in the
Philippines have been sharp
4 and decisive. Our forces
have charged the works of the en-
envy whenever found and always
routed them with severe loss. We
have suffered some loss, having had
fifty or sixty killed and wounded in
the series of engagements. An eff
fort is now being made to surround
and capture or destroy the main
body of their army at Calumpit.
Our forces are marching on the
town with two columns from differ
ent directions and hope to trap the
wiley savages. So far in the march
ing fight they have captured and
killed about 600 of the insurgents
and hope to make the coming en-
gagement decisive.

NAKED PROTECTION

THE Secretary of India has done
for that great dependency,
L without consulting Parliament,
exactly what has been steadily de
MED to the West Indies. He has
announced the imposition of coun-
tervailing duties on all sugar impor-
ted into India that is protected by
bountics. The objection of the
measure, said Lord George Hamll-
ton, was to prevent vast indigenous
trade in India, based on free enter
prise and industry, from being I'M
dermined by the subsidized products
of foreign countries. Exactly.
Naked protection. And if that is
right for the East Indies, how can
the same Government refuse the
same relief to the West Indies? That
is a question the planters on this
side of the water will now press
home with irresistible effect.-Buf-
falo Commercial.

The State Convention of Select

week had very profitable and pleas
ant meeting, They held their meet
ings in the Odd Fellows Hall and
seemed to have quite a goodly number
of delegates present
The last meeting OF the session was
a social Thursday night where all had
a good time.
The following resolutions were adj
opted at the close Of the meeting:
Whereas, the members of Noble
Lodge No, 30 Order of Select Friends

extended to the delegates of the Order

Be it further resolved, that we un-
conditionally Surrender to the well
drilled and talented team of Noble

The committee also adopted the fol-
lowing resolutions on the death Of

laborers "not demand over much in
the way of increased wages or les

siderable experience with that same

THE BRITISH WAY

THE Duke of Deyonshire, in an
address delivered a short time
u since before the shareholders
of the Furness Railway, referred to
the fact that, as he put it, "even
the most enterprising of English
firms, with well-equipped works ex-
pressly put down at the coast for ex-
port trade, have been underquoted
in their own country by American
made rails" and said: Excessive
care must be taken not to demand
overmuch in the way of increased
wages or lessened hours, lest pro
duction be made so dear that the
foreigner can cut in below our coun-
trymen."
Americans have no quarrel with
this attitude on the part of English
statesmen, especially SO as the poll
cy advocated is not likely to result
in the shutting out of American rails.
We are more than willing to let the
English manage their own affairs.
Yet one cannot but marvel at the
economic bigotry which perfers to

SERVED HIM RIGHT
THERE is quite stir being
made through the papers about

THERE is quite stir being
made through the papers abou
n the torturing and burning al
the stake of the negro brute at Crit
fin, Georgia.
Our own private opinion about the
matter is that, could the punishment
have been made a thousand times
more severe it would not have been
adequate to the crime. Not because
he was a negro, but because he was
a fiend in human form. We believe
all such characters white or black
should be treated in a similar man
ner, north or south, such hendish
deeds as his surely make anyone
think that if there is no hell of fire
aud birthstone, there should be one
specially prepared for just such
brutes
a young farmer, in whose employ
the negro had been, was sitting at
his supper table enjoying all the fan
cled security of home, when this
negro quietly slipped up behind him
and split his head with an ak. He
then jerked an infant from the young
mothers arms and flung it on the
floor in the Blood of its dying father
and checked the mother into insen
sibility, flung her down on the
bloody floor and glutted his evil
passions.
Think you his punishment was too
severe? No, no, could the same
punishment extend ten thousand
years and be ten thousand times as
severe, he would not get justice.
Yet, mob-law is wrong in princi-
pie and geatly to be deplored. Once
started it is liable to lead to exces p
ses that are worse than the crimes it
seeks to check. Crimes like this
committed by this negro are becom
ing entirely too prevalent and her
ole treatment in a few cases seems
to be the only remedy.
A lynching is disgrace to any
community, but what are we to do
to check such dastardly crimes?
With the uncertainties of punishment
held out by the tecnicalities of the
law manipulated by shrewd attor-
neys, there is not the proper safe
guard thrown around life and the
chastity of our homes. Could the
criminal classes once understand
that speedy death is the inevitable
penalty of such heinous crimes we
would soon have less cause to resort
to barbarous lynchings.

element in fusion, have been gaining in
vigor and power and increasing the num-
Der of offices held. If the fusion ticket in
full had been elected yesterday not a
Republican would have been left in the
county court house. AS it is the Republi-
cans have stemmed the advance of the
Democrats and have turned it and have
not only retained all cney had in the
county building but have gained two and
possibly three Offices.
There were many surprises in the way
the vote came out.
Charles Simmons in his race for sheriff
made a wonderful race. SURPRISING all his
former records, after a hard fight had
been made upon him and many fusionists
thought they had him beaten.
A. S Marble, whom the fusionists be-
lieved they had beaten, made a great
fight and rolled up a big majority in the
city.
John Chain. who had & good strong
man against him, ran strong from start
to finish, much stronger than was antici-
pated.
A big majority was expected for Dan
Boone. and he came up to expectations.
Coroner McCoIIister surpassed himself
as a runner, and was still running last
night
Judge Balderston made a good fight, as
did Mr. Mundevello but the opposition
was concentrated on them, and they had
TO bear the brunt of the attack.
The same old difficulty of delay in re-
ceiving returns from the county was met
with. while the city did exceptionally
well in this respect The city returns
were all in at midnight and added up
and the city building, where they are re-
ceived. was dark and deserted. The town
ships as usual were slow in getting in
although the new telephone lines helped
in some instances.
BY noon today all the townships viii
be in complete, and the final tabulatons
will be possible.
A. great deal OF interest was taken II
the local election. A large crowd gath
cred about the Eagles bulletin boards
and in the Republican headquarters as
the gains began to pile up Chairman
Herman and the others there were al
smiles. At the Democratic headquarter:
there was a good deal Of sorrow appar
ent on the countenances and early in thu
! evening the fusion forces recognized thei
/ defeat.
