DOWN WITH THE TRUSTS.

Even Bryan has very little. argu-
ment for Bryanism, his henchmen
have less, and when 1t seeps down to
sire ct corner politics, Organizes have
nothing. Nothing except their dog
gedness. Doggedness is good thing
as far as 1t goes, when it goes along
the right way, but it is neither theory
nor proof, and makes poor show be-
side the republican facts, figures, and

REPUBLICANS NATIONAL TICKET
A NEW SOUTH.

The south will have to think out its
problems for itself. These are new
days for every southern state. The
south is at the dawn of an enormous
advancement in every industry, If its
politics are right, or it will dawdle
along for another generation with
painfully slow increase of power, If its
politics are mistaken.
1t is not exactly a question of repub-
licauism or Organism, it is som ething
deeper than partisanship or prejudice.
Neither will serve . man these days.
The issues are new and full of vital
meaning, particularly to the south
and west. 1t will not do for q man to
vote heedlessly On the industrial issues
shat are caught in national politics.
Without naming any names the Balti-
q platform for the "Progressive
South
"Whereas, In the course of Ameri-
can politics the South has reached the
point where foolhardiness will mean
loss and decay, while common sense
will mean prosperity and progress:
therefore be IL
'Resolved, That the progressive
South is opposed to dead issues; that it
Is not afraid of ghosts, and that it is
not looking backward.
"Resolved, That the South ia oppos-
ed to men and measures appeal
Ing to ignorance, passion and
prejudice, that tend to array
class against class, and that
can present no more practical reason
for their support than the desire and
purpose of individuals to retain or
gain public Office.
''Resolved, That the South favors
the politics that will encourage and
protect Investments within it's borders,
will raise more chimney-stsckso of mills
and furnaces, will strengthen and ex-
tend railroad systems, will open more

THE Cuban teachers at Harvard may
be cited as another living proof OF our
degenerscy as q people and our desire
to trample on the necks Of the island
ers, of our new oppression, and OF our
wringing every possible profit from
their misery and degeneration. Thir-
teen hundred Cuban teachers are being
Hospitality entertained by Msssachu-
sets people. Harvard students have
placed their rooms and Harvard pro-
fessors have put themselves a. the
disposal of the teachers. The summer
courses of Harvard are offered free to
the island teachers. It Is An example
ment to foster the experiment., to desire
to 60 to the bottom of things and try
to educate the rising generation OF Gu
bans to meet the responsibilities OF
life and government. It is an example
of the prompt generosity and broad
mindedness of one of our great colleges
that it opens it's doors that education in
Cuba may profit by the successes of q
education in the United States, and it is
an example of the high mindedness Of
the every day people of our cities that
they will welcome these strangers of a
strange race, to their homes, and
make honored guests of them, in order
to help along the schools of Cuba.
Bryan and demopopulism may read
dishonor, degradation, selfshness,
tyranny and corruption in this page OF
the history of our days, but right
minded people can only interpret it
as q glorious observation-disclosures and
sympathy and the highest charity.

4 Lives Wiped Out.
Special Daily States.


Shreveport, La, April 81. The
lumber mill of the firm of Allen
Bros, & Wadley, at Allentown,
was yesterday the scene of a MUIR
der, suicide and two executions.
At about 8:25 yesterday morning
JEFF Riston, a negro lumber gra-
der in the employ of the company.
quietly left his machine and
sneakiug to position q few feet
30 the rear of Foreman w. T..
White, who was seated at his desk,
drew revolver and sent a bullet
into the bo,ly of the unsuspecting
foreman. Then stepping to one
side he fred again, the bullet en-
tering the brest. White fell for
ward to the ground, while the
thied bullet fired by the assassin
missed its mark and embedded it.
self in the wall of the building.
Riston then ran to a cabin near
by and evidently for the first time
realizing the enormity of his crime
and its certain consequence, sent
a bullet through his own brain.
The news spread rapidly through
the country and soon number of
white countrymen had gathered
at the mill. From the circum-
stantial evidence which presented
itself, the crowd came to the con-
clusion that the assassination was
the result of conspiracy among
the negroes. Accordingly, they
made a thorough investigation and
liked upon two negroes. John
Hughey and Ed Amos, accompli-
ces of the assassin Riston. It
took but few moments to lead
the two unfortunates to a place
some 800 yards from the mill.
where they were made to stand off
q few PAGES. The thirty or more
members who composed the crowd
levelled their revolvers at the ne
groes and in few moments two
bullet-ridden forms were stretch
ed upon the highway. The crowd
then quietly dispersed to their
homes in the neighborhood.
The assassination is thought to
have been the outcome of repri.
mand given by White to Riston
on the previous evening.
White was popular lumberman
throughout the State and. was
highly priced employee of the com. |
