foolishness From Atkinson.
pittsburg Dispatch Republican.

The published assertion of Gov
ernor Atkinson, of West Virginia,
that the trial for the Goebel murder
in Kentucy is "the hanging Of men
without due process of law with
intimations of "bloodshed' on nc
count of it, is lacking alike in ac-
curaey and good judgment.
1t is always a sign Of poor judg-
ment in any man, much more in the
Governor of State, to threaten
bloodshed, and it is especially poor
Judgment for Republican cam
paigner to indulge in that talk in
behalf of men tried for notorious
act of political assassination. More
over, there is distinct want OF YER
acity in the assertion that the con
victions are without due process OF
law. If they were it would be the
duty Of the United States Supreme
Court to set them aside. The fact
is, we believe, that the highest trib-
unal of the land has passed upon
the first conviction as having been
made 10 accordance with the due
process OF law.
There is no dispute that Goebel
was shot, that it was not the result
Of an accident. and that the support
ers of Governor Taylor, in the State
House at the time, were in posi-
tion to know who did it. If they
could prove that anyone did it other
than those charged with the offense
they have had ample opportunity to
produce the evidence. 1t would be
calamity to the Republican party
to have it saddled with the charac-
ter Of unfolding immunity for po-
Etical assassination. The party
cannot be loaded with that burden,
even thoagh hot heads like Atkin-
son do their utmost toward it.

an absolute certainty that In case he

for armor plate while it was selling
the same plate to the Russian govern
ment for 1885 a ton.
The officials In Cuba who have been
amassing millions at the expense OF
the Cuhans will be reduced to beggary
in the event of the election of Bryan.
Brother Abner will be prevented
from taking many OF the fat con-
tracts which will be his in case Mr..
Bryan be defeated.
Secretary Alger will be ruined land
will not be able to dispose OF thous-
ands OF cases OF canned beef which he
has in stock.
One thousands trusts to control
everything including the air and the
sunlight will not be organized.
Men like Bynnm will be forced to
seek an honest livelihood instead OF
being retained in office constantly in
return for having changed their poll
ties.
The plans for corporations to de-
spoil Porto Rico, Cuba and the Philip
pines under guise OF extending our
commerce will be foiled.
England will be compelled to re-
linquish the territory ceded TO her by
Mckinley In Alaska and will sever the
alliance which she has so benignantly
bestowed upon us leaving us todrift
TO our fate.
None OF deals made with the trusts
and other combinations for plumber

NOTHING In IT.
Alleged Coal Deal In Preston County
Depending on McKinley's Election is

A few days ago an esteemed con-
temporary announced with great
flourish of trumpets that million
dollar coai deal was to take place in
Preston county IL Mckinley was
elected. A representative OF this pa
per was talking to some coal men
when the subject came mp.
Capt. f. L. Parker one of the
staunchest Republicans in the coun-
ty booted at the idea and stated that
such a Claim was the veriest rot.
There is nothing whatever in it
and / am astonished that such a
claim should be put out by sensible
people, said Capt. Parker.
Il happen to be in position to
know what l am talking about and
the alleged deal is moonshine. 1t

NOVEMBER is

Dr. Fitch the Post Master Given AS
surances of This by the Department
Vacations interfere With Its Start
ing ON Schedule housekeeping
is ia Readiness for the Improvement.
Free delivery will be established
here about November 10th. This is
the cheering Intelligence that has
been brought back from Washing
ton by Postmaster j. P Fitch who
has been down there looking after
the after and inquiring about the
failure of the department to start it
here when it was authorized to be
established.
1t should have started up at the
beginning Of the present quarter but
the time has come and gone for it to
have been established without any
sign from headquarters. The result
of the examination which was held
for clerk and carriers has never been
sent in and nothing whatever has
been beard on the subject.
DIR Fitch went down to Washing
ton to inquire about the matter. He
found that many of the clerks in the
department. which had it in charge
were away on vacations. They had
allowed their work to pile upon them
until they could not get it done in
time.
However they are coming down to
US as fast as possible and it will be
only a short time until our case is
reached. When that is done we shall
be given the improvement. The de-
partment assured the postmaster that
this would be by November Is.
They told him before when raral
delivery would start and it was start
ed on time. This is the first time
that any date has been set for the e.
tablishment Of free delivery ia t wn
and it will more than likely start on
the date named,
Everybody will be glad to know that
there will be no further delay in the
matter. We are ready for it. All OF
the towns are numbered and the
streets are named. The mail boxes
are here but they have not been put
up. All the other furniture needed
has been received by the local Office

DESTRUCTION AT HITCHCOCK.
A Letter Telling of the Damage to
the Texas Coast.

GALVESTON, Tex, Sept 1s.-Edgar
Fordtran has received letter from
Hitchcock, from which the following ex-
tract is taken:
II see in the Houston Post a report
of two killed in the storm at this place.
Prof Williams has made a list Of thirty
killed in Hitchcock and vicinity. On the
place adjoining me the man and wife
were both killed Charles Robinson's g
son was killed, his daughter crushed, and
Robinson had one leg injured. They are
at the Houston Infrmary. The distress
around here is appalling. Houston has
kindly sent some relief Everything is
wiped out on my place. The buildings
were not only blown down, but washed
away and covered up with dirt. We had
eight feet of water to contend with. The
sight we saw when daylight came beg
gars description We were surrounded
by dead cattle, telegraph poles, railroad
ties, bales of cotton, and sacks of cot
ton meal with 'sanmoors' marked on
them which told US that the wharves of
Galveston had been swept and the city
flooded
Fifty per cent Of the buildings in the
coast country were destroyed The main
land dead viii number, perhaps, 800 The
forests north of Dickinson are SCARED
and ragged. Great trees were felled and
the whole country shows how the storm
Travelled with destruction. The stencil
from rotten carcasses Of cattle comes
over the prairie and the wind from the
northwest Is Hnbearable.
This tragedy is the greatly far the
greatest-of the century,
