Organize and Work.

Senator Jones, chairman of the
democratic national committee, in
his speech at Lincoln last Monday
to large ana enthusiastic throng,
composed of democrats, populists
and silver republicans, says the
Kansas City Times, gave his audi
tors to understand that it takes
more than a splendid ticket, an un-
assallable platform and unbouLded
enthusiasm to win victory at the
polls-lt takes intelligent, earnest,
unremitting work.
Said the senator: "We have no
child's play before us in the cam.
paign in which we are about to
enter. / believe that the democrats,
the populists, the dissatisfied repub.
licans, whose hearts are made sick
by the imperialistic administration,
and abhor the idea that the govern.
ment of the United States shall be
controlled by great trnsts, will
carry us to victory. Each man
must do his duty. Each man
can do his part. Every man
owes it to himself aud his family to
do all that he can do and do that at
all times, day and night. for our
SUCCESS, You can do il in more
ways than one. Yon can do
1t by talking to your neighbors and
your friends, by writing letters and
by contributing to the campaign
fund. five will oil stand together
in this present contest, / believe we
will win, as much MS ! believe that
God in heaven is directing our des-
tinies.'

and will doubtless be followed by

throw of Hannaism and the restora.

The situation in China grows
worse every day and all hope of
saving the foreign legations IN
Pekin has been abandoned. The
allied forces are hard pressed and
being driven back by the Chinese.
Realizing that something must be
done quickly, the powers interest
ed are hurrying troops an munitions
Of war to the scene of trouble as
fast as possible. From latest news
il is learned that the allied forces
are fighting hordes of Chinese day
and night but are unable to beat
them back. No quarter is given
or asked. That the Chinese torture
the wounded who fall into their
hands frightfuliy and barbarously.
During the retreat of the Pekin
reliefexpedition, Admiral Seymour
was compelled to shoot his own
wounded to save them from the
tortures of the barbarous heathens.
Being SO hard pressed that they
were unable to take them to place
ofsafety, the wounded men begged
their commander, with tears stream
ing down their cheeks, to give them
an honorable death under their own
flag. The civilized world is bein G
aroused as it has not been for many
years and d terrible vengeance will
visit that benighted country.

the trust idea is maintained, but all

who is light weight compared to
Fields, used buggy whip, or rath-
er the butt end of broken whip,
over the head and shoulder of the
barber. Ferguson, who has been
drinking heavily, has a shooting
reputation, coming here from West
Tennessee, under a cloud Of having
used his little gun on negro. 1t
is claimed that Fields, since the
trouble In the morning had made
threats that he intended killing Fer
guson and the boys around town
tried to keep them from going to-
gether again. Fields, by the way,
bears hard reputation, which came
with him all the way from Bollinger
county. his birth place, through
Stoddard and Mississippi county,
where several years ago, he killed
William O'Bryan. At the above
hour, Fields, with his coat on went
into the Turf saloon and the pro-
prietor tried to get him not to go
IN, as he knew Ferguson was in the
room, adjoining the barroom, in the
rear. Fields, however, replied to
him that the matter was settled and
was allowed to pass in. La the

Legation of the United States Of Amer.
lea. Picking. China, Aug is. 1S00.--Dear
Sims: have only time for line. We
came out of our living tomb on the 18th, re-
lieved by the arrival Of 10 900 foreign troops.
l would have cabled you. but the minister
notified the department and asked that you
be advised Our position for two months
has been terrible beyond words. Ever
since June 20 we have been besisged in the
English legation, fired at day and night
with shot and shell by Chinese troops Our
legation guards number in all some $50 mo-
rines, many of whom have been killed. or
wounded. Our daily bread has been horse
ana mule meat and rice. Mary and are
both safe and we'll. She is much worn by
the terrible strain, as all the ladies are, but
wnl recupsrate soon. We have witnessed
awful scenes. and know from personal ex-
,perience what war Is. We had to hold out
or be massacred. Peking is scene of ruin
and desolation I hope and believe that
Just punishment will be melted to those re.
sponsible for what has been done and what
they tried to do. wish you would extend
our greetings to all our friends at home
and assure them that their Kindness has
often been our thought when death seemed
near. Sincerely yours,
