OREGON MOB LYNCHED
CORPSE OF ITS VICTIM

MARSHFIELD. Ore. Sept. 19.-Alonzo
Tucker, colored. who assaulted Mrs. Den
mis- near Libbey Wednesday, was lynched
yesterday. body of coal miners. heavily
armed, marched into town last evening.
The marshal who had Tucker in Gus
tody, attempted to take him from the jail
Just as the miners entered, and a rush
was made for the negro. He managed
to give his custodian the slip and jumped
under the wharf into the mud flats, and
eluded both officers and mob until yes
terday. The miners stationed armed
guards at every point of egress from the
city. The patrol was kept up all night.
and at one time there was loud talk Of
lynching the officers who allowed Tucker
TO escape.
Every corner of the town was searched
and finally two boys located the fugitive
under a store. The boys fired at him with
air guns and drove him from his hiding
place AS he emerged a ball from rifle
caught him in the right leg.
Tucker ran into the store and was fol-
lowed by the miners. who started to
string him up In the store, but they de-
cided to take him to the scene of the
crime. A start was made. but the negro
died from his wounds and the mob hanged
him to a beam on the South Marshfleld
bridge. There was not masked man in
the crowd. and everything was done in
broad daylight.

NEW ROAD TO BE
MADE OF A., K. AND N.

Extensive improvements on the road
bed Of the Atlanta, Knoxville and North
ern railway will be made by the Louisvllle
and Nashville railroad. the company
which acquired the A. X. and n. several
months ago.
The work of improvement will begin at
once, and II is understood that the line
will practically be rebuilt from one end
to the other. The officials of the A. X.
and N. have made extensive improve
ments in the state of Tennessee and
most of the new work will be done be-
tween Marietta, the southern terminal OF
the road, and the Tennessee line.
Ilhe grade will be cut down, new bridges
will be put in, stone culverts will be built.
new rails will be laid, and 1t is very like
ly that a through train service will be
inaugurated. 1t is understood that the L.
and N will have through trains from
Cincinnati to Atlanta by way of Jellico
and Knoxville, using the A. K. and n.
For this reason the roadbed is to be
changed about considerably and put in
condition for fast trains.
There is considerable talk as to the ef-
feet the requirement of the A. K. and n.
by the L. and N. Will have on the state
road. now leased to the N, c. and st. L.,
which is a part of the L. and n. system.
When the lease expires sixteen years
from now the L. and N. will have line
of its own into Atlanta. and will not in
all probability release the State road or
purchase H.. Then the property OF the
state will be bottle- up.

.RINGGOLD TO soon
HAVE COTTON
FACTORY
$4,000 HAS ALREADY BEEN SUB
scRIeED BY THE PEOPLE OF
THAT TOWN - CAPITAL
WILL EE 100000.

RINGGOLD, Ca. Sept. 19.-The cotton
factory for Ringgold is now an assured
reality.
The application for the charter has al
ready appeared in the local paper, and
as it contains, as petitioners, some of the
most prominent citizens of Ringgold and
Catoosa county, everyone is sure that at
last Ringgold will rank as she once did,
one of the leading manufacturing towns
in north Georgia..
The promoters OF the enterprise hope to
secure among local capitalists about
$4,000 the remaining $4,000 will come
from other sources. Already numerous
letters have been received enquiring the
price of stock.
The general offices of the corporation
will be located in the city of Ringgold.
This will necessitate the erection of
handsome brick building on presumably,
Nashville street. Then will come the
building of the mill. and the cottages Of
it's employees.
The factory will produce cotton goods
of almost every variety. Among the va
rious kinds will be hose, cotton cloth.
underwear, etc. About one hundred people
will be employed in the mill and, as the
volume of business increases, other de-
partments will be brought into use, thus
necessitating the increase. of the laboring
force.
The splendid water power, as yet IN
developed in this county, will be brought
into requisition and as the time rolls
on, other factories. encouraged by the
success of this mill, will locate in and
around Ringgold, making the metropolis
of Catoosa one Of the busiest and most
enterprising little cities on the state
road.

COOK TELLS
Of ERROR ON
BLANKS
SUPREME COURT PLACES ARE
SEPARATE AND DISTINCT.
HE GIVES THE PROPER FORM
OF BLANKS.

Secretary of state Phil Cook says that
the form of the state ticket published in
The Journal Thursday contained an error
where the names of the candidates Tor the
supreme court occurred. The candidates
were placed under one head Thursday
when they should have appeared under
two. as the two positions to be filled are
separate and distinct. Justice Samuel
Lunlplxin and Justice Andrew ]. Cobb are
the nominees of the democratic party FOR
the full term, while the candidates VINO
have recently announced are not the nom
inees of the party but are simply candi-
dates before the. people and besides are
running for an unexpired term.
In explaining the matter today Secreta-
ry of State Cook says:
''In your issue of Wednesday afternoon
Q7th Instantly, you produce an article
headed Form of the Official Ballot is An
nounced Today by. Secretary of State
Cook" fs ss {24.
/ have nothing to do with the form Of
the official ballot; have no authority to
prescribe a form, and have not done so.
/ have sent out election return blanks
to be used in the general election on Oc-
tober /, and from this fact your error
probably arises.
In the list of offices to be filled by pop
ular vote, your issue of Thursday reads:
For Associate Justices of the Supreme
Court (three to be elected) Samuel Lump
kin. A. ]. Cobb, John S. Gambler. Richard
Russell, w. r. Hammond. John p. Ross,
Julian williamson Making IL appear that
the seven candidates named are all run
ming for the same office; the full term OF
six years, while it should read as fol-
lows:
For Associate Justice Of the Supreme
Court-For full term Of six years (two to
be elected). Candidates: Samuel Lumpkln,
A. j. Cobb.
For Associate Justice of the Supreme
Court-(To I'll unexpired term Of H. I.
Lewis resigned). Candidates: John s.

SIGHT OF DEATH TRAP
MADE PRISONER RAVE

NEW YORK, Sept. -9.-Peter Hernia
was hanged in the county jail at Hacken-
sack, N. j., today. for the murder Of Bar
ney Kanter, a butcher, but before his ex-
ecution was accomplished. Hernia made
desperate fight.
him to strap him arms. he suddenly tore
off two brass brackets on the side Of his
cell and getting into the corridor, leaped
over a partition. He then tore off piece
of lead pipe and crouching in a corner
shouted that he would brain any one that
came near him. BY this time the jail was
in an uproar.
The sheriff and his deputies were at first
puzzled as to how to deal with the muir
derer and disarm him. 1t was finally de-
cided to turn a hose on him. This was
done and as Hernia put up his hands TO
ward of the water from striking him In
the face, a deputy sheriff leaped over
and grabbed the hand of the murderer in
which was the lead pipe. Other deputies
quickly rushed IN. Hernia was finally
overpowered and securely strapped. He
was then placed in a chair and carried
to the gallovs, his clothing dripping wet.
He was lifted from the chair and the
moose quickly adjusted about his neck.
The sheriff then asked him If he had any
thing to say.
He replied In a weak voice:
''Goodby all. Excuse me-"
The drop was then sprung and Hernia
died of strangulation. The condemned
man during the night asked frequently
for whisky and this morning he refused
to eat his breakfast. When whisky was
refused he smashed chair in his cell
and two priests who were with him had
great difficulty in calming him.
Hernia shot Kanter on March 4th last
because thesIatter would not sell him .
cents worth of dog meat. Kanter explain
ed that his supply was exhausted, but
Hernia pretended not to be;ieve him and
upon a second refusal later in the day
shot Kanter, who died that evening from
the effects of the wound.

ENGLAND GLAD
OVER NOTE
Of Hay
NOTE ON HEBREW SITUATION
FURNISHES SUFFICIENT EVI-
DENCE FOR ENGLAND TO BE-
COME VERY ENTHUSIASTIC.

LONDON, Sept 19-Secretary Hays
note to the powers which were sigma
tories to the Berlin treaty Of 1878 on the
subject of the treatment of the Jews in
Roumania, which was received in London
about a fortnight ago, was welcomed in
British official circles. The tone of the
formal acknowledgement of the receipt
of the note here indicates British APP
prevail of American initiative in this mat
ter and confirms the idea that Great
Britain welcomes the continued interview
ton of the United States in affairs in
which Europe is more directly concerned.
in the belief that such intervention tends
to indirectly strengthen the hands of he
british government.
Apart from this, the question of ex
clusion and anti-immigration laws are de-
manded on many influential quarters. So.
the government is In sympathy with Mr..
Hays protest In the hope that the whole
sale export of undesirable emigrants from
Eastern Europe may be checked.
The newspapers here continue to COM
ment on the United States note. The St.
James Gazette in a semi-humorous refer
ence to it, says:
THE European governments to whom
it was addressed must have been agree
ably surprised, for the note furnishes
fresh evidence of the growing disposition
of the United States to take a seat in the
orchestra. or the European concert, Wnlcn
some performers view with uneasiness.
After declaring that 1T is difficult to un-
derstand what President Roosevelt hopes
to gain by sthe appeal to the Signatures
of the Berlin treaty. The st. James Ca
zette concludes that the chief American
motive, is humanitarian. and says:
This indicates a spirit of knight err
rantry, which. however, creditable to a
great civilized power, is likely to give
the Americans plenty of occupation with
out increasing their popularity. with the
governments of the old world"
Mr. Hays contrast of the enlightened
system of America and the intolerant tyr
amy of the surviving principalities of Eu-
rope is referred to by The st. James Ca
zette as mot devoid of self-complaisance
and as intended at edi1cation of man
kind" The paper refers to Mr.. Hay as
IAN American Hamlet" who says:
Look on this picture and then on that
and consider whether old Mother Europe
s-ould not be ashamed of herself"
The St. James Gazette suggests that
South Africa would welcome the Rou-
manian' Jews, for whom the American
government is so solicitous and yet so un-
willing to welcome"
The British foreign office this evening
gave the Associated. Press the authority
that his majesty's government had COM
municated with all the signatory powers
of the Berlin treaty with the view Of de-
veloping their attitude and purpose in re-
lation to the Roumanian Jews as called to
the attention of the powers by Secretary
Hay. ar
