the way to destroy that incubus. The democratic party has become d chief of sinners It must be made to realize the exceeding sinfulness of it's sin; it must be brought to it's knees with re- morse: it must put in the sackcloth and ashes of repentance: it must die and be reborn if 1t Is ever again to live vigorously and worthily. All it's true sons must strike and spare not for very love. The movement to nominate a third ticket will only interfere with the directness and effectiveness of it's imperative chastisa ament. It is ill., advised for it is futile. It can accom- plish no good purpose whatever am utterly opposed to it."
 MT. Anderson remarked that he thought too rashly have some rabi6 anti-imperialists assumed that Aguin- aldo is the Philippines" and that there was possibility that a majority of the inhabitants of the islands, might want the United States to stay there. Then he added:
 What democrats should be thinking of is saving their country from the dis hOnCr of financial legerdemain and dis honesty and rebdking the maniacs who made and thrust upon them the Chi cago and Kansas City platforms. I would say word to sound money democrats on the local situation. Never has there been a finer opportunity for the organization of new democracy in this city on the lines of the county democracy which MT. Hewitt, MT Grace. MT. Whitney and myself were instrumental in organizing in 1880. If l were twenty years younger I should not ask for more promising or more useful enterprise. Tammany Hall, by its adherence to Bryanism and by it's local errors and misconduct. has opened wide the door of the entry of a right principled, vigorous young de- mocracy."

 Tremendous excitement reigned in New Orleans as the battle went on be- tween the police and citizens and the negro with his Winchester. After the tragedy was over and Charles was dragged out from mud and slush in which he had fallen, with a mob howl ing for the burning of his body, state ments were made that the man killed was not really the desperado who had killed Day and Lamb, but papers found on his person and the fact that he fought so desperately for his life and shot so accurately, seem to leave little doubt that he was the man.
 After it was certain that Charles was dead, the mob entered the yard and | dragged the body into the street There the police and mob emptied their re- volvers into the corpse, while son of one of the murdered men rushed up and stamped the face beyond recog- | milton. The police took the body away | in d patrol wagon.
 The situation here this morn-' l ing was much quieter and 1t | is believed that except for some iso- | lated cases of disorder the authorities
 have the lawless forces well in hand 1 The night passed with d comparative
 absence of violence. except for the atro- cious murder of Hannah Mabry an old
 negro, at her home on Rosseau street.
 Several hundred negroes have left the city.

A BLOODY BEHEST.
Wilhelm Directs the Indiscriminate
 Slaughter of Chinese.

Berlin. July 27-The Lokal Anzeiger says the emperor, when addressing the troops at Bremerhaven before they sail.d for China, said: Every Ger. man has been filled with pride to learn that the highest praise bestowed upon the German warriors has come from the mouths of foreign leaders. The task before you is a great one. That a people like the Chinese should cast to the winds international rights a thou- sand years old and treat with scorn the sanctity of an ambassador and the rights of hospitality in d manner so horrible, is unprecedented in the his tory of the world. Every civilization not founded on Christianity is sure to be brought to naught,
 50 I send you out. May you all prove your efficiency, devotion and bravery. bear joyfully all discomfort and uphold the honor and glory of our arms. You must set an example of discipline, self dominion and self con- control If you close with the enemy. remember this: Spare nobody make no prisoners. Use your weapons SO that for a thousand years hence no Chinaman will dare look askance at any German. Open the way for civ ilization once for all"

EAIBLEMS OF BLOOD.
Roberts Declares All North Carolina
 Aroused for White Supremacy.

Suffolk, Va. July 27.-General w. P. Roberts of North Carolina, state com mitteeman, and consul at Victoria, B. C., during Cleveland's last term, in an interview here today said the political fight in his state is the fiercest since the civil war.
 Tt is a battle for white supremacy" he said, and the election of Demo- cratic Candidate Aycock for governor will mean the disfranchisement of 70. 900 negroes. Race feeling is high. The whites are securing from Virginia towns all the Winchester rifles and other weapons available"
 General Roberts says the colors worn by red d-shirted men and red-ribboned women in the recent parades "are en- blematic of the blood which will be shed if necessary" An alliance of negroes, republicans and populists un- der the present election laws could control the state. but such a contin- gency will be obviated by the adoption of the proposed amendment. Many republicans and populists, whose hate for tfe democrats is less strong than their love for white dominance, will vote for the amendment.
 General Roberts believes Aycock S majority will be nearly 500OO.

THE WEST ALL RIGHT
Good Republican Prospects in Colorado
Senator N. B. Scott on the General Situation in the So- Called Doubt ful States-A Democratic Effort to Avoid Silver.

Washington, July 27.-Senator N. B. Scott of West Virginia. who is on his way to New York to take charge of the republican national committee head quarters, stopped in Washington and spoke most enthusiastically as to the republican outlook. Senator Scott has just returned from a three weeks trip through the west and northwest, al d predicts that those states will be car ried for Mckinley and Roosevelt te- yond doubt.
 This certainty of the final outcome. however does not mean that the repub- ican campaign managers Will take anything for granted" he continued. The opening guns of the campaign will be fired some time between the 18th and 2Oth of August, and from that time until election day the canvass will be pushed with vigor."
 T really believe that the republicans will carry Colorado this fall. I visited Pueblo during my stay in that state, and while there Mckinley and Roose- Welt club was formed. The remarkable thing about this was that sixty-two members of this club voted for Bryan in 1896. This is only one example of the way people are dropping the free silver idea
 The campaign will be fought upon all the issues. for there are none that the republicans wish to evade If the democrats" want to make imperialism the paramount issue We will meet them on their own ground. We will talk about l6 to l, and the prosperity that has resulted from the wise republican legislation. We will stand upon the rec ord of the administration of William Mckinley, in which there is nothing to apologize for.
 Tn Indiana, Illinois, and Wisconsin where the democrats have been making claims of dissatisfaction among the Germans because of the so-called inn perialistic policy of the republican party, l look for increased gains for Mckinley and Roosevelt. All these states are sure to cast thier votes for the republican candidates. The dissat- lsfaction among the Germans exists only in the minds of the Bryanites Kansas can be safely counted in the republican column. The farmers in that state look upon Mckinley as the agent of prosperity and are going to give tho ticket their unanimous support. I aI- so think we have d good chance to carr, Nebraska, and of electing a republican legislature. It is assured that West Virginia will give a plurality for the re. publican ticket"
