! inch Of Republican victory In the late po-
lidcal battle we have conformed to the
| teachings Of the lowly Nazarine and re-
turned good for evil This is q step far
in advance Of any party. But let Us not
tarTy in this movement of reform. let US
up and be doing, ever pushing forward
to the goal for which we have so nobly
aimed. Let US carry out the grand prin-
ciples 50 recently adopted by the chair
man of the Republican central committee
of Woodward county and the territorial
committeeman Of this county and give
the postofiees, land Offices and, in fact
all the offices throughout the land TO men
that are staunch advocates OF democracy
and have been thrust back from the pie"
counter by the ruthless hands Of the more
ambitious leaders Of the party What
matters it if they have been denied prom
inent positions in their party? they are
Demicratsl simon purel And now that
we have so grand an opportunity let US
spread the banquet and invite them to a
front seat at the pie counter.
while the blood of battle is yet upon
our brows and our limbs ache from the
strife let Us decorate the banquet halls
with Republican endorsements, pile up
the spoils Of victory we fought so hard to
gain, arch the entrance-way with placards
bearing this inscription. Republicans
may pay the bills. Democracy thou art
welcome" and 60 out in the avenues and
alleys, in the highways and byways, IN
the fields and sand dunes, gather them in
and place them high up on the front seats
of the nation in positions Of honor and
trust.
The above is a simple and apt Illus
tration of what we may expect if we fol-
low the unprecedented example set by the
Hon. Territorial Committeeman Virgins,
and Chairman AcGrath Of the Republican
central committee Of Woodward county
by endorsing Democrats these gentle
men have violated the trust reposed in
them by the party and set at naught the
long established custom Of allowing the
victorious political party the spoils Of Of
fee. This is not merely q trivial matter
Of local import but one of serious conse-
ouence that would not only prove an en-
barassing detriment and permanent in
jury to the Republican organization of
the territory of Oklahoma but the per-
nicious precedent established, If persisted
in, would relegate the national Republi-
can party to a long and silent Obscurity.
And men holding positions of trust in this
political organization that win SO flag
rantly violate the time honored custom
and endorse, urge and secure the appoint
ment of Democrats 10 federal positions
that should be held by Republicans are
not only subject to severe criticism but
their Republicanism and motives are i'm
pugned.
Republicans, It is Up to you. Now is
the time for action, or will you sit idly
and let your rights be usurped and bring
shame, reproach and ridicule upon the
grand old party Of Republicanism? Act"

A Prominent Druggist Says.

Office of ]. T. Shuptrine, Wholesale
Druggist and ACKNOWLEDGEMENT. Ga,
July l, 1s96.-Mr. A. B. Girardeau, 6avan-
nah. Ga.-Dear Sir: In reply to yours
asking me for statement giving my ex-
perience with Johnsons Chill and Fever
Tonic. will say that since 1882 when 1
made my first purchase of four dozen,
have bought in lots varying from 10 to
100 gross. until I find that my total pur-
cfrases have aggregated the enormous
amount of 10000 bottles.
During my long connection with the
drug trade, covering more than 20 years,
1 cannot recall any article that has had
such a run and that has so steadily in
creased in sale.
have always called the attention of
the buyer to the guarantee placed on the
Tonic and explained that l would give
the money back whenever a complaint
was made. Yet, out of this vast amount
of medicine, 1 do not think more than 20
complaints have ever been made.
This seems surprising, but with my
own experience with the medicine in the
complaint is ever made. In my own fam
lily have used the Tonic in severe cases
of fever and always with the tappiest eff
feet. l use the medicine myself and take
pleasure in recommending its use to 9TH
ers. Yours very truly. ]. T. Shuptrine.-

DAY WITH THE MILITARY.
Part Companies Played in the OBJ
servance of the Fourth.

The military played a part in the OBJ
servance of the Fourth in Savannah. In
specific celebration of the day there was
but one military demonstration, the sa-
lutte fired by the Chatham Artillery early
in the morning in the military parade
ground
Savannahians were awakened at z
o'clock by the detonations. platoon of
the guns was out, commanded by Lieut..
II. S. Dreese, and the noise they made
was enough to arouse the most enthu-
siastic sleeper. The hour at which the
firing took place was voted universally as
being early enough, thought 1t had been
the intention of the Chathams to give
the salute even earlier. They wanted
to make II a sunrise event. but camp
habits had left them and they were not
able TO get out quite as soon as when
they were at cambridge.
The Chathams made a visit to Tybee a
feature of their day. They went to the
Inlet Club, the quarters of which the
battery formerly owned. A number of
ladies' accompanied the artillerymen. and
a good time was enjoyed by all. Music
was at hand, and dancing enlivened the
event. The Galatians and their guests.
after expressing their pleasure to the off,
Dreese and Lieut.. Alex Krenson, who
were the hosts, for the good time they
had spent returned to the city at late
hour last night.
The Emmett Rifles went to the Avondale
Rife Range in the afternoon for practice
at the targets, The command was IS
strong, not including the three officers.
Capt. +. A. Leonard was in command,
and the conduct of the Emmets on the
fhpir trim hack n
city. only confirmed the excellent reputa-
ton as soldiers that they have estab-
hshed during their short existence. The
shoot was the first general event at the
range In which the company participated.
No Bmmets were qualified as marksmen
or sharpshooters as the ranges were not
all tried. Shooting was confined 10 the
go and 800 yards targets, and some thirty
men made records sufficiently high 10 adj

FOURTH ON THE RIVER.

Day to Celebrate.

Donkies stopped and Negroes Got n
Day to Celebrate.
The spirit of "the Fourth" was as ap-
parent on the river front yesterday as
elsewhere about town. The vicinity Of the
wharf front is the center of manual la
Dor, and of the sort it is difficult to keep
going when fire crackers are booming
and others are having a good time. With
but few exceptions therefore those in
charge of the shipping recognized the de-
sires of the men to take a day off and
allowed them to go.
Here and there in the harbor were yes
sells with their colors flying in honor Of
the day on which the declaration of
of freedom was signed. American schoon-
ers were particularly prominent for their
colors, which were bright and attractive.
Herbor Master James Mcbride found
little to engage his time as there were
no arrivals up to O'Clock last night,
and with no prospect of their being any
before morning. This let him off, though
he remained at his office a part of the
day to look after any business requiring
his attention. Most of the shipping Of
fees gave their clerks a day off, or at
least gave them the afternoon.

Miss Christina Scott. aged Is years,
whose death was announced in the
Morning News yesterday and whose
funeral took place yesterday morning

complexion waters. 1t is probable that

The death certificate stated the young
woman died from malarial poisoning.
Miss Scott had a quantity of the waf-
ers, which are said to contain arsenic
and disposed of some of them to her
friends. She used a number herself.
Coroner Keller will be asked to exhume
the body to-day and ascertain by a post
mortem If arsenic was the cause of
death.
The matter was reported to Superin-
tend of Police Reilly and an effort will be
made to secure one of the waters and
have 1t analysed. The poison broke out
on Miss SCOTS finger tips and she COM
planned, too, of soreness in her throat A
physician reached her too late to be of
service and Coroner Keller was notified
of her death. His investigation at that
time was followed by the granting of
the burial certificate.

opened FIRE on the Marshal of the
Island but Got Worst of II.
A negro waiter at the South End pa
vilion at Tybee, was shot last night about
midnight by the marshal of Tybee, r.
Hunter. The shooting occurred just be-
fore the midnight train left the island.
The particulars are meagre, but from
what can be learned two negro walters
at the pavilion had a row, and the mar
shall and some of his deputies were try
ing to get the matter Strengthened out,
and had one OF the belligerents under ar
rest. AS they started off with their pris-
oner. the third man, who later was shot,
appeared on the scene and opened fire
on the marshal and his assistants. The
fire was returned and one bullet took eff
feet in the head of the negro. He was
put on the train to be brought to the
city, but by the time the postoffice was
reached. it was found that his wound was
not a serious one, so he was taken off
the train and to the lookup. The shoot
ing occurred near the extreme south end
of the island.

KILLED WITH BIRD SHOT.
Dispute Over Money Responsible for
Louisville Road Tragedy.

LOuhsv1lie ROAD Tragedy.
A negro supposed to be named Blount
vas shot and killed by an unknown ne
gro on the Louisville road. about five
miles from the city, yesterday morning.
The shooting was reported to DR.. F.
Wahl when it occurred and the physi-
mans wounds.
Blount only lived a short while after
the shooting and the physician could do
nothing for him. A load of birdshot.
fired at close range, had torn large
hole in the left side of his stomach and
ne did not speak after he had been shot.
The physician learned that Blount and
another man had been engaged in a dis
pute over some money matters and that
both became angry as the argument was
prolonged. The stranger finally lost
his head and fired the contents of his
gun into Blount. The strange negro
lost no time in leaving the neighborhood
and his identity was not learned by the
physician.
The homicide was reported at police
headquarters during the afternoon by DR..
VAIL. but none of the city officers went
out to the place. Superintendent Reilly
said that the crime had not happened in
his baillwick and he really did not have
a man whom he could spare. All of his
force was engaged on other cases and he
could not permit any of them to leave
the city.
The superintendent made several efforts
to communicate with some of the county
officers during the afternoon, but was un-
able to reach any of them until last night.
At that time it was too late to make an
investigation of the killing. Coroner KEEL
Ter was not notified of the tragedy until
a late hour and will leave for the scene
of the crime this morning. In the mean
time none of the city or county officials
know who did the killing. The sheriff sell
dom pays any attention to matters OF this
kind.

CASINOS BANNER DAY.
Elaborate Display of Fireworks at
ThunderboIt Resort.


ThunderboIt Resort.
The Casino at Thunderbolt entertained
several thousand people during the after
noon and evening, and those who went
out at night enjoyed an elaborate display
of fireworks. Manager Nelson had the
grounds beautifully illuminated and after
the performance the patrons of the rail-
way company were entertained with the
fireworks display.
The auditorium was taxed to its capac-
ity at both performances and those who
attended seemed pleased with the produc-
ton. A delightful breeze was enjoyed dur
ing the day and no trouble was experience
ed with mosquitoes.
General Manager McIntire was unable
TO state last night just what the receipts
for the day had been, but large crowds
were handled on all of the lines, and it
is believed that the day was a record
breaker. The belt lines were literally pa
tronized, and a car on the Abercorn and
Barnard belt line showed that nearly 1900
fares had been collected on it during the
day There were no break-downs at the
power house, and the cars were kept 60
ing until after midnight.
