Waterbury Democrat., 1902-07-24

Governor Aycock of North Carolina seems to be of a different type from most southern governors He is a red hot friend of the negro and has started a fund to be used for the arrest and detection of lynchers. According to a North Carolina correspondent, says the Outlook, 'tthe fund made available for the detection of lynchers is about $40 GOO dollars. During the past session of the legislature Governor Aycock showed the same spirit in resisting the attempt to divide the school funds so that the poorer race should only get the benefit of the school taxes paid by it's own members. The governor in- formed the supporters of this reaction ary step that if their bill passed the legislature he would veto it, and if it repassed the bill over his veto he would resign and make a campaign for re- election on the issue so raised. The determination that he showed carried the day, and the bill was not passed. Tn both these matters the governor $ attitude in favor of the rights of the negroes is an attitude in favor of the shonor of the whites. The lynchingl of negroes. as we remarked last week! is -incomparabiy more degfading to the race which inficts than to the one which suffers the wrong. And the starvation of negro public schools would in the long run create negro class schools which would educate in the negroes the very spirit the south wishes to eradicate. Indeed, the closed schoolhouses would, from the very out set, prove the most effective of all edu- cators in this spirit. Governor Ay- cocks position, therefore, is not merely that of humanity, but of statesmanship as well.'

 A writer on 3. New York paper, dis. cussing the work of congress, says that the platform of 1900 also promised leg sislation in the interests of labor ssWe cannot go on much longer with the sort of private war by which labor and capital adjust their differences. For there is civil war going forward in our coal mining districts, and not only labor but the community is suffering from it. We are. not far from the point at which capital must be obliged to abandon its extreme exercise of the rights of property, and to recognize that the community cannot consent to have the supply of a necessity, like coal, made dependent on it's keeping the peace with it's employees. It is the part of a wise government to so adjust both legislative and executive action as to prevent struggles of this sort be- coming acute The British government some years ago exercised sort of civil coercion upon the operators of the English coal mines to put stop to a
 
 strike. Is our government less able to do this? If so, it will suffer for it's in competence. When things become in- tolerable, the public ceases to listen to excuses and explanations. It calls for action, and it punishes those who can- not or will not act. It will do so with in the forms of law, when this is prac- ticabIe, as when it turned out President Van Buren and the democrats In 1S4O. But if the forms of law are found too narrow, 1t will step outside them with no more seruple than our national gov ernment did in 1S61-65. Are we watt ing for that? On the whole, the nifty seventh congress has been a neglectful and unfaithful stewart of the nations means and opportunities, and has so impressed the country. If it be re- elected it win not be on it's merits, but on the demerits of the opposition.s

SPRINGFIELD, III, July 24.-A portion of Lacy levee at Havana has been washed away by flood waters of the Illinois river, and 12,O00 acres of land, 5000 of which were under culti- vation, are now inundated by water varying in depth from five to ten feet. Just previous to the breaking of the levee the water stood at nineteen feet, one inch above low water mark, and the water is still rising. Alarm whis- ties sounded warning to the farmers in the flooded district. No lives were lost.

For state senator from this dis.
trict the republicans nominated Dr.
q. B. Wilson, genial and public
spirited citizen of Pullman, a man
well qualified to represent his con-
stituency in the state senate. He
is a longtime resident of Whitman

and with the ability to properly
present those needs to the state leg

higher education, and especially of
that branch represented by the ag-
ricultural college, in the we'll being
of which institution he will bend
his strongest endeavors.

PRESIDENT ROOSEVELT'S siren
uous efforts in regulating the trusts
can only be effective with a repub-
llcan house and senate. One of the
weakest points in the ,ie-..4e'erarrc
is the fact that even were
the people to return a democratic
majority to the house it would be
for the democrats to en-
act any antitrust measure i'll accor-
dance with their views. There is
no possibility of the democrats Sc
curing control of the senate until at
least two congresses, after the fifty
seventh, shall have expired. There
fore, the only hope Of antitrust leg
islation is the election of a safe re-
publican majority i'll the house.
With the president and congress
both republican there is reason to
anticipate that some conservative,
but efectual remedy, not destructive
Of the trusts, but corrective of the
trust evils, will be placed on the
statute books. Moreover, with
some democrats still shouting "16
to l." others lavoring measures
which are essentially socialistic, and
still others advocating gold stand
ard, there would be no hope of SEN
sible legislation from that party

A STRONGER candidate for the
important Office of county school
superintendent has probably never
been nominated in Whitman coun-
ty than Miss L. l., West, says the
Enterprise. Her strong physique,
temperament that is a stranger to
irritation or fatigue, together with
her long and successful experience
as an educator among the people
she would serve admirably fit her
tor the position, The story of Miss
Vests work is long one, and is
so generally known thot it does not
call for recital here. Always a
prominent figure at county and
state educational meetings through
pioneer days down to the present,
her knowledge of our school system,
its strong points and its needs, is
most complete. There will be no
in electing Miss West to
the office of county superintendent.

Gold I'm NIuscatIne.


Some graders i'm Muscatinc Tues
day struck a. gold mine. They were
loading a wagon with dirt, when the
shovel of Phil Fahey struck "a tin
can which was embedded i'm the
earth about 20 inches. As he raised
his shovel full of Garth the can rolled
off and quantity of gold coin was
spilled ON the ground. which attract
ed the attention of the other man.
and soon they were all piled in
heap each anxious to gather the
glittering coin of the realm. As soon
as the money was gathered up an in.
voice was taken. and it was found the
can had contained just S191.3O. There
were three S1.O0 gold pieces, several
$3.50 gold pieces and the balance
were of the denominations of 50, SO
and 500 in gold. There were also
three silver dimes. The money had
been placed in Il cocoanut shell, the
top of which was covered with the
lid of fruit jar. and this was placed
i'm tin can. The place where the
money was found was among a lot
of gooseberry bushes, and IL could
not have been buried many years. as
one of the coins bore the date of loss.

GENERAL RULES
ON SHOOTING OF THE DUCK

The following decision i'll answer
to an inquiry in relation to duck
hunting has been rendered by At
torney General Hamlin:
Replying to. your inquiry as To
what construction should be placed
upon that part of section l. chapter
81, of the revised statutes of Illinois
being an act to provide additional
remedies for the protection OF
game, wild fowls and birds, etc.
which reads as follows:
land it shall further be ,unlaw-
full, at any time. to hunt, kill, entrap
or ensnare, or attempt To hunt, Kill,
entrap or ensnare, or otherwise de-
stroy any wild goose. brant, duck
or other water fowl from any fixed
or artificial ambush beyond a nat
ural covering of reeds, canes. wild
rice or other vegetation above the
water of any lake, river, bay or in
let. or other water course, wholly
within this state, or in such part OF

within this state, or with the aid
and use of any device commonly
called sneak boat, sink box, or other
device used for the purpose of con-
cealment in the open waters of this
state. l beg to reply:
THE evident intention of the por-
tion of the statute quoted was 70
provide all water fowl therein men
toned with place of sanctuary or
rest. Without such provision by
statute any fixed or artificial am
bush could be erected upon the rest
ing or feeding grounds of such
fowl, in the middle or
any other part of the open waters,

fowl in manner which would leave

he came from Sweden three weeks
ago. President Andreen will prob
ably take up the matter with the
gentleman when he reaches Chicago
and an invitation -vill be extended

would have an added significance
from tie attendance of the repre-
sentative of the crown.
While in Chicago the entertainment

the editors and publishers of the
Swedish newspapers in the city.
On the night Of April 4 Mr.. Sund-
beck will give Il lecture before the

The PrudentIal,s Annual statement.

No other life. insurance company
whose age is the same as the Pru-
dentials has ever made such an in
crease in its business in any one
year as has been shown by the Pru-
Dental Insurance Company of Amer
lea for the year 1901. Over S273 ,000,-
900 of life insurance was written and
placed, making the total amount of
insurance i'm force over sos, 100000.
Big increases are shown in the
amount paid TO policy-holders; in
the assets of the company; in the
yearly income; and i'm the surplus of
assets over liabilities.
Altogether the first year of the
new century was most successful
one for the Prudential. 1t is quite
clear that such results have been
achieved only by the most vigilant
and the most upright
and honorable business methods in
carrying out the work of providing
life insurance protection for the peo-
pie. Write 10 the home office of the

THAT the prohibition of that por-

tent of the statute been to absolutely
forbid the use of any fixed or ar

provided without qualification and
would, in SO many words, have pro-
hibitcd the use at any time or place
of any such fixed or artificial am
bush. Neither can the words i'm the

tificial ambush be not placed or To-
Gated in the open waters beyond the |

tation grows, furnishing Il natural
covering.
No sneak boat, sink boat, sink

in the open water of this state, but
this clause does not prohibit the
making or use of any pit or sunken
device if the same bc used within
