1t is thought that the elimination
of the negro vote as a consideration
in many of the southern states will
have the effect of causing many
democrats 10 join the republican
party. AS long as there was a pos
sihillty of negro rule in the south
there was congealing Of the white
vote under the democratic banner,
but now that there is no possibility
of the negro gaining the ascendency
the protectionist element of the
democratic party will 80 over to the
republicans and the political fights
will hereafter be among the whites.

Unlike the many mine owners.
when a great calamity overwhelms
them, the Daly.West company is
meeting the issue mani lily and
paying off all death claims that re-
suited from the terrible explosion
of the powder magazine in that
property two months ago The
basis of settlement agreed on is
1,00O$ for each single man; 2,000$
for widows and 5OO$ for each child.
The great number of men killed
left large families and these will
receive from three to six thousand
dollars. The aggregate of the pay
ments will run up into the thou
sands. 1t was terrible calamity,
but the company is smoothing the
way for the orphan and widow to
the best of its ability.

If you would attract attention to
the fact that you have mines for
sale you must advertise. Newspa-
pers are doing all they can to bring
the industry of the county to the
notice of the outside public, but the
aid of mine owners is necessary to
keep the newspapers going. An
adv. calling attention to your mines
will not be out of place in the news
p pers. Put it in and make a
noise about it. You have the best
mines on earth, but the purchasing
public may be unaware of it.

The county commissioners of
Arapaho county, Colorado, (Den-
ver) are up against a criminal as
well as civil action on account of
a printing contract on par with
the letting of the printing contract
in this county. The steal was SO
flagrant that the district attorney
filed an indictment against the
board and now they are defending
themselves on criminal charge.
The board here are in the same
boat and the charges will be pressed
against them at the next session of
the district court. Steals of this
kind may go through once in a

come to grief.

Washington, Feb. 6-By far the
most significant expression which
has so far come from any member o.
Congress regarding the effort to Sc
cure,tariff concessions for Cuba is al
interview which the New York Trib
une prints with Senator Platt, o.
Connecticut this morning. Senator
Platt has proved himself to be one o.
the most stalwart OF high protection
lists, but the cold, calculating New
England mind sees the danger to his
party and sounds note of warning
To drive the warning home the dig
nitied Tribune, which has never in.
dulged in typographical gymnastics,
prints the interview in black type on
its first page. The Tribune has new.
er faltered in it's advocacy OF protec.
ton, but here is the interview which
Senator Platt dictated and the Trib-
une conspicuously displays:
Il am a protectionist and have
been SO much 40 that | have been call
eda partisan am as strong pro-
teetionist now as ever, but believe
that proper and reasonable tariff
concessions ann no noda IN Cuban
products in return for Cuban tariff
concessions on American products,
which would greatly benefit the trade
Of both countries and not appreci-
ably injure any American industry.
| think the cause of protection is be-
ing wounded now in the house of its
professed friends, and that the free
tradercannot injure the cause oipro-
lection as much as protectionists
Who Insist upon unreasonable and
unnecessary customs duties"
The warning Senator Platt sounds
means that unless the protectionists
heed the wishes of the people and
come to the relief of Cuba, either n
Congress will be elected which will
topple the protective policy over
board or that Republicans from the
agricultural districts who mnstrome
up for reelection in the iall, will, in n
desperate effort to placate their con-
stituents, make in onslaught ON the
tariff schedules which are supposed
to befounded on what the trusts have
built.

Riot Follows Revival.

Carthage. No. Eehrnary-6-Rex,
Sidney Motley, an evangelist, who
has been holding revivals in the
southeastern part OF this county and
in the northeastern part of Newton
county the past three months, Great,
ed n good deal OF excitement that
eliminated in a riot by expressing, it
is said, the belief that there is no
scriptural justification for the Eman-
uei church, the church in which he
was then preaching, eight miles south
east of here, The reverend gentle
man followed up his assertion, it is
alleged, by ridiculing the membership
OF the church. This is said to have
aroused the ire OF the Pennsylvania
Dutch OF that neighborhood, anC
they summarily elected him from tn,
church and closed the doors. In the
hand-to-hand contest that followed
several persons were knocked down
and a number of knives and pistols
were drawn, amid the screams of the
women and cries of the children. The
Evangelist got number of his con
verts together and adjourned to Pine
schoolhouse, three miles away.

him General Funston's future. Mr..
Scott told Mr.. Roosevelt the general
had expressed desire to remain in
the United States and suggested that
he be assigned to some Western fort.
The President exhibited great inter-
est in Funston's welfare and inquired
particularly for his health. Mr..
Roosevelt said he would like very
much TO see him and inquired if he
would be in Washington. Mr.. Scott
said the general had written that he
would be here next week. Its under
stood that he will not be ordered
back to Manila.

The Craze For Gambling.

Harry l.. Sears, a travelling man,
said to Mexico lntelligencer repre-
sentative Friday morning of last
week:
II never saw anything like the ex.
citement at Montgomery City, Mo.
1t seems that the people-some OF
them-are going crazy over options
and they are being ruined. 1t was
told that between $135,00O and
$150,000 have been taken out OF the
county recently through the bucket
shops. There are now two bucket
shops in Montgomery City; one isn't
enough. went into a store there to
sell the proprietor some goods and
he said:
81 am sitting here waiting for my
creditors to come and take the store
| have lost everything
81 heard of another citizen" said
Mr.. Sears, "who has lost everything
and is ruined. His wife is prostrat
ed"
This bucket shop speculation is a
most seductive plan OF getting rich
quick. A venture OF a hundred dol
lars gained on a lucky deal, more
chance than judgment, and the evil
work is done. The nibbler becomes
aplunger and ten to one, a bankrupt
or ruined business man in a short
time.

Saved BY Reinforcements.

Victoria. b. C., Neb. 5.-Manila pa
pers received by the steampship En-
press OF China have particulars efthe
recent attack by bolemen on a com,
pany Of the Ninth infantry in Samar,
which resulted in the death of seven
ofthe eighteen attacking and wound
ing of eight others, five seriously.
A detachment of Company + was
struggling through the thicket near
Dapdad, Pueblo, when a large band
OF bolemen rushed upon them. A
bloody hand to.hand combatensued.
The detachment eluAAea their. rifles,
and, standing back to back, they
swung them at the heads of the enc

bring their rifles into the play, and
the bolemen gradually fellaway, leav-
ing the small force OF Americans with
but four of them unwounded. The
bolemen lost heavily.
\ detachment Of native soldiers at
tracted by the sound of the firing,
hurried to the scene, but arrived too
late to take part in the combat. 1t
is believed the unexpected arrival Of
the achievements caused the bole-
men to retreat, thereby saving the
detachment from humiliation.

CHISM FOUND GUILTY.
Illinois wife-Murderer Given Seven.

llllnOlS hiie@huIOeTeI OlNen seven
teen Years IN Penitsntiay.
Bloomington, ILL.,, Feb. 5.-Deduct-
ing seven years and three months for
good behavior, the time to be served
by Merritt Chism, convicted WIFE
murderer Of Mclean county, will be
but nine years and nine months. The
verdict brought in this morning fix
ing the punishment at seventeen
years in the penitentiary created
general surprise. 1t had been gen.
orally supposed that the jury would
hang on the question Of capital pun
ishment or a long term in the peni-
tertiary.
1t developed that the iurymen IA
voring a mild punishment were in
majority and had their way. The
insanity theory was rejected at the
outset, which is crumb OF comfort
to the prosecution, which fought
this plea with earnestness. The jury.
men we're unanimous that Chism was
in his right mind when he killed his
wife, but they looked upon the alleg'
ed disposition Of the woman as offer
ing some mitigating circumstances,
partially justifying his treatment.
The further fact that Chism would
not long survive the penitentiary, he
being 90, and not in good health,
was also considered. Chism heard
the verdict with apparent unconcern
