not compelled 10 look for gains from the
Democratic party for it's majorities; but that. on
the contrary the Democratic party must win Re

before ~ could expect hope TO be victorious in
an election. New-Jersey he said. Republican,
not by than SlC00 majority. as in 1896 but
by somewhere IN the Heighborhood Of q on. The
ex-Attorney- General paid high compliment 10
Franklin Murphy and thought he would be nom

had earned the nomination over and over again
by his long continued and intelligent services TO
the party. any doubt that he was entitled TO its
loyal support.

STORMS DEVAsTATE ENGLAND.
Fearful Gales and Big Floods
Sweep the Country, Causing
Enormous Damage.

A London special says: Severe snow
storms, deluging rains and furious
gales have created havoc in the
United Kingdom. In many parts OF
the country there have been disas-
trous foods, landslides and washouts.
On all sides much stock has been
drowned. The railroads and high
ways are blocked, buildings and
bridges have been carried off and the
overfowing streams have inundated
miles Of country, while they have SUBJ
merged the streets in some OF the
towns from three to four feet deep.
At Coventry the devastation IS
greater than at any time in the last 80
years.
Many factories have been flooded
and hundreds of inhabitants are i'm.
prisoned in their homes.
Immense tracts of land in several
counties have been transformed into
inland seas, the inhabitants seeking
refuge in the upper rooms of their
dwellings. Many villages are isolated
completely and some towns OF consid-
erable size are without gas owing to
the works being flooded.

WOMAN WRECKS SALOON.

Ardent Member Of W. c. T. o. Destroys
Costly Property Of GroR Shop.
Miss Carrie Nation, president Of the
Barber county W. C. T. o., entered
a hotel barroom at Wichita, Kan,
Thursdsy and with stone destroyed
a $500 painting Of Cleopatra at the
bath and mirror valued at $100.
She was placed under arrest and
sftervard appealed TO the governor,
who WAS In the city, but he refused to
act in any way.
She broke mirrors at Kiowa, Kan,
in two saloons some months ago. She
declares there is no law under which
she can be prosecuted.
Mrs. Nation Thursday night issued
a manifesto ito the friends of temper
ance everywhere" in which she ac-
kpowledges there was method in the
apparent madness"
tI came to the governors home
town." she continues, Ito destroy the
finest saloon in it, hoping thus to at
tract public attention to the fragrant
violation of q Kansas law under the
very eye Of the chief executive of the
state"
The damage to the saloon is hard to
estimate. It was finished with stucco
secured from the worlds fair build
ings, and many blocks of it are shat
tered. The painting of "Cleopatra"
cost,Mr. Noble, its author, nine months
time painting it, aud was still his
property, being rented by the saloon.
It has been seen at nearly all the
street fairs from Canada to the gulf.

SOUTH'S PROSPERITY
Acts as "Loadstone" to Northern
Financiers and Capitalists.
THEIR CONFIDENCE UNBOUNDED
President of Old Colony Trust
Company of Boston Talks of
Encouraging Outlook.

T. Jefferson Coolidge, president OF
the Colony Trust company, of Boston,
is now in Thomasville, Ca, where he
will spend week on an inspection
trip of the Triton, Thomasville and
Gulf railroad.
Mr.. Coolidge, as the head OF the
Old Colony Trust company, one OF the
strongest financial institutions in the
country, is interested in large invest
ments throughout the south, and par
ticularly in Atlanta, where he has con-
siderable capital invested in the EN-
pire building, a sky-scraper which Is
now being built at the corner OF Mari
eta and Broad streets.
On being asked as to the business
situation, Mr.. Coolidge said:
.sThe feeling in the north is that the
Country is entering or has already en-
tered upon period of great prosper
ity. Special industries may, of course,
have temporary setbacks, but there is
q strong belief that all industries will
share in the prosperity OF the next
few years.
seThe greatest confidence is felt in
the industrial development OF the
south. What with the satisfactory
prices obtained for cotton, iron, coal
and its other staple products the south
is realizing many millions month
more than the most .sanguine persons
expected two years ago. Manufactures
are springing up in all parts as the
natural result of the increased wealth
of the community.
''While I think cotton manufacturers
have been erected in some places with
out due regard to the many dificuitles
of manufacture, and there may be
some losses for this reason in that diff
ficult branch of business, yet most OF
the great number Of the manufacture
ing companies which have been started.
up in all parts of the south should have
the advantage of active business for
the next two or three years. And,
when dull times come again, the south
will have reached position OF wealth
and strength which will fit her to meet
all competition.
cit is safe to say that the south has
slipped into the front rank as q man
ufacturing community and she Will
never have to take q backward step.
The result Of. increasing wealth
throughout the south will be shown
by increased values OF all property,
both in the country and in the cities,
and Atlanta will as the leading city
naturally show the most rapid I'M
provement."
