Mrs. Leland Stanford writes to friends
In Washington that she has now dis
posed of every vestige of the enormous
fortune b~eCueathed to her by the late
Senator Stanford, and has recently
signed deeds transferring all his real
ford university. This includes the lar
gest cattle ranches, horse-breeding
establishments and vineyards in the
world. with various farms. country
houses and large tracts of wild land.
The deed covered sixty-eight pages of
typewriter manuscript and required 81
900 in internal revenue stamps. Mrs.
stanford had previously transferred to
the trustees of the university all her
personal estate. embracing stocks and
bonds valued at SIS. 900. 900. and. so far
as the actual ownership of property is
concerned. she is now as destitute as
the day on which she was born. h
has a contract, however, with the trust
life an annuity OF s25, 600. to be used as
she Dleases. and all her relatives were
literally provided for in Mr.. Stanford's
will.

Gen. John b. Golden, commenting
upon the ave of Southern prosperity

to keep a sharp lookout or else the
manufacturing interests of the South
will overtake and catch them. That
is all right; but isn't 1t about time for
the South to help the North and East?

The Philadelphia Ledger does not
believe that Congress can DO anything
directly to overcome the trusts. 1t
says: There is one method, however,
of coping with monopolistic trusts
without attempting specific legislation
pronouncing them unlawful. 1t would
effectually cripple the power of oppres-
sion exercised by the practical monopo-
lies which are the benefciarles of
an excessive tariff. Should congress
lower the rate Of duties on all products
that are the subjects OF monopoly in
the home market the competition OF
Europe would compel extortlonate
trusts to deal Justly by the American
consumer. This is an eminently prac-
teal plan, which is in complete accord
with the protective tariff principle as
defined by the last national convention
OF the Republican party, which con-
demned equally foreign control and
domestic monopoly"
The next thing. in the evolution fav-
ored by the Ledger. would be to re-
move the tariff altogether from certain
articles. and we should soon have, MOI
only the International trust, which
could defy tariffs. but the whole tariff
and revenue problem would be newl,
complicated. 1t is rather surprising
that Republican papers should recon
mend any such course. They prov,
thereby how really deep-seated the in
dignation against the trusts is, But lie

Any man who wishes perfect health
must be entirely free from catarrh.
Catarrh is well-nigh universal; almost
omnipresent. Peruna is the only ab-
solute safeguard known. A cold is the
beginning of catarrh. To prevent
colds, to cure colds, is to cheat catarrh
out of its victims. Peruna not only
cures catarrh, but prevents it.

RAILROAD TO MENA.
Movement to Extend the Fordyce
Road Assuming Shape.

The movement looking to the ex-
tension of the Little Rock and Hot
Springs Western railroad to point
on the Kansas City Southern, posi-
bly, Mena, or to Paris, Texas, is
rapidly assuming shape. This city,
Hot Springs, Mena and Paris, Tex,
have already given the subject con-
sideration through their CONNER
cial organizations. President W.
S. Mitchell of the Board of Trade
of Little Rock, having yesterday
appointed a committee, consisting
of w. W. Dickinson, James A.
Fones, M, Kirst and Secretary Geo,
r. Brown, to meet at Hot Springs
with committees from the other
cities in the near future to consider
the subject. At the Hot Springs
meeting it is expected that commit
tees from all the points named will be
present be organized into one gen
eral committee to handle this mat
ter. There is a vast area of unde-
veloped agricultural, mineral and
timber land west of Hob Springs
and western Arkansas, south of
the Choctaw route, is practically
without railroad facilities. The
members of the Little Rock com
mittee are among the leading and
most influential business men of the
city, and will spare no efforts tc
open up this new territory to the
Little Rock market. Johl H. Ham
ilton, president of the Commercial
Club of Mena is an activd leader il
the work, his object beingkto make
of Mena the western termhus. He

when Captain Wilson was pros

people in Sumter as a bluff; they
did not know the man, for when
he attempts to do thing, it is
done, and success always crowns
his efforts. For many years a
road was being built on paper
and when Wilson came upon the
ground, opposition sprung up

For several years past it has
been the practice for the voters
to regard the primary the cleo
ton, and when the general elec
ton came on the vote was light.
This was very well so long as the
North was satisfied with having
things her own way in Congress.
but now that her influence IS
gradually diminishing she wants
to cling to her control by reduc-
ing the representation in the
South. Among the reasons given
for the cutting down of our rep
resentation is the small vote cast
in the elections. Our readers
will see the necessity for turning
out on the 9Th, day of November
and casting a full vote. South
Carolina voted in the primary
about SO, 900 votes, and this was
confined to the wl.ite voters,
with the colored vote we should
poll a great many more.
Every man should turn out
and vote, not because there is
any danger to the nominees, but
it is necessary to keep our rep
resentation in Congress.

Hon. John Sherman Of Ohio,
died last Monday morning in the
city of Washington. Mr.. Sher-
man, was one of the most con-
spicuous figures in National leg,
islation since the days of Calhoun
Webster and Clay. His public
career has been long and ardu-
Gus. He represented his dis
trict in the lower house, and for
many years his State in the
Senate, it was here where his
ability made itself felt. He was
the author of the much discussed
Sherman bill'' which demonet-
lied silver and put the money
of the fathers" below the gold
parity. Sherman was Secretary
of State under Harrison. He
was regarded in this and foreign
countries as one of the ablest
figures in financial legislation OF
the age.

PREACHERS AND POLITICS.

The Abbeville Medium having re-
marked that Senator Applet, editor
of The MANNING TINES. has given
some good advice to political preach
ers' and that it is mot probable that
his advice will be taken" by them, the
Chester Lantern comments that 1t
certainly will not be taken bya preach
er who has any regard for his duty.
Senator Appelt is not the kind OF Chris
tian they look to for advice" We don t
know what kind OF Christian Senator
Appelt is, but he is probably as good a
Christian as Senator Tillman. whose
advice on the liquor question number
OF preachers seem to have taken.-Co-
lumbia State.
Senator Applet has never made
any professions of Christianity,
but he is willing that his piety
be measured with that Of Signor
Gonzales, editor of The State,
and he is also willing to take his
chances with that class of pro-
Tossing Christians who preach
Glove thy neighbor," and then
advise a spirit of revenge when
"thy brother" has given them
otense or thwarted them in their
political aspirations.
Senator Applet has a sacred
regard for ministers Of whatever
creed, but his regard for political
preachers is the same as for any
other class of politicians. They
are estimated according to the
number of votes they can pull.
Brother Gonzales may be able
to sing Coward, Christian Sol
diers," but when it comes to
judging of another's Christian
ity, Signor Gonzales sis not the
kind of a Christian to look to for
advice" and we doubt very much
if the editor of The Chester Ian
tern really knows the meaning
of Christianity.

The New York Herald predicts
a landslide for Mckinley, giving
him 282 votes and Bryan 165.
The Herald in politics is Inde-
pendent, with Republican lean
ings. In other words The Her
aid is usually with Wall streets
magnates. It claims that Nc
Kinley will carry every State he
carried four years ago, except
Kentucky, and make a gain of
eleven votes in the electoral col
lege.
The Herald may know whereof
it speaks, and it has fine SER
vice for getting information, but
we do not see how it can place
much confidence in it's own fig
ures, if it reads the Columbia
State, whose editor knows more
than The Herald's information
giving-service can find out; how
ever. we are inclined to believe
The Herald is doing a little blow
ing to please its patron saints on
Wall street. Bryan has got the
Republicans on the run; he is
"jabbing dem in de Stats" on
every turn and if he does not
win he will keep Mark and Ted
dy guessing until after the elec-
ton returns come in.
An old hayseed once was
charged with horse stealing and
the jury convicted him of big

client would get lighter SEN
tence, told him to be quiet,
':there's no accounting for the
verdict of a jury
The Republicans are depend
ing on being in possession of the
election machinery and the
money bags, but if they do not
mind, the jury, who are the peo-
pie, may give them a verdict
that will surprise them.
