and given his reasons therefor. Men
have declined to participate in certain
matters of legislation when their per-
sonal interests were of far less impor-
tance than Mr.. Stevenson's in the case
referred to. The rights Of the corpor-
alton and those Of the people ought to
be equal under the law, but everybody
knows that in these latter times cor
porations have to be strongly held back
from encroaching upon the rights Of
the people. Here their interests are
generally considered antagonistic. Mr..
Stevenson recognized that principle
when he resigned to become candi-
date. Note the fact that he consider
ed that necessary even before he asked
the vote Of the people. Why should he
do this unless he knew that the people
and the corporations at the same time?
Yet, Mr.. Stevenson was speaker and
railroad attorney at one and the same
time. AS we said on previous occa-
sion, he could not serve both honestly.
If he served the people, he was recreant
to his duty to the railroad, If he served
the railroad, then he betrayed the trust
confided in him by the people. There is
no getting around the logic Of the sit
uation, and whichever horn Of the dill
emma Mr.. Stevenson chooses to hang
upon, he proves himself unfit for the
position to which he aspires."

TI1LMAN STIRs THE IRIsH.-"We wan,
to fight against this tyranny by ply
sical or moral forces. Stick together
arouse public opinion, and make a fight
for it. Pull together and you will win.'
This was the advice given by United
States Senator Benjamin r. Tillman. OF
South Carolina, to Irish Nationalist
assembled in annual picnic yesterday
Three thousand people, gathered in Os'
wald grove, Sind and Halsted streets
endorsed the sentiment with theiI
cheers.
"The Irish are like team Of horses.
continued Senator Tillman. "They are
prone to pull in a zigzag manner. One
pulls and then the other. If you, the
Irish-Americans. and the Irish of other
countries, contribute your moral forces
and your physical forces the question OF
Irish independence would be solved as
soon as you could pull together. Take
Johnny Bull by the throat and force
him to his knees.
God did not make Ireland slave to
England any more than he made the 1;
colonies slave to the same country, and
some day Ireland will throw off the
yoke, as did those brave men in 1776.
II don't see what can become Of this
agitation for Ireland in America unless
some action is taken. Back your reso.
lutions up with action. I think that
England should be made, forced, to fee
public opinion in every possible way
She has no longer the right. nor never
had, to put Ireland under the heels OF
English landlords and mobiles and grind
her to death. h."-Chicago Tribune.

COL. U. x. GUNTER,
Candidate For Attorney General of
South Carolina.

Candidate For Attorney General of
South Carolina.
"Mr. U. x. Gunter, in his candidacy
for Attorney General, has laid special
stress upon the fact that his opponent,
Mr.. Stevenson, was not the man for
the office, because of his connection
with a railroad as an attorney, and that
position is we'll taken. AS a corpora
ton attorney, Mr.. Stevenson Is sup.
posed to have thoroughly studied cor
poration laws and naturally his inter-
probation Of that law was favorable to
the corporations. He must have con-
vinced himself that such Interpretation
is proper, and naturally the bent Of his
mind is in that direction. The fact
that he has resigned his position as a
corporation attorney could not possi-
bly, have changed an opinion which he
has held for years, and neither would
his election as Attorney General trans
form his mental attitude toward such
questions so that he could view them
with an unbiased eye. This is natural,
and however honest man might be,
and however much he might intend to
do what is right, he would under such
circumstances always be badly handi-
capped by a previously formed opinion.
This fact is recognized in law, for
when a man is put upon his Voir dire
in a trial, If he says he has formed an
opinion as to the case, 1t Is considered
sufficient generally to reject him as
Juror, notwithstanding he may express
the belief that after hearing the evil
dence he would render an unbiased
verdict. Lawyers are afraid to risk
such a man, however honest he might
be, and the people Of South Carolina
will no doubt look upon Mr.. Stevenson
in the same way. AS to what Mr.. Stew
enson has done, it Is q fact that while
speaker and a railroad attorney he ap-
peared before a committee which had
some matter connected with his rail-
road under consideration. 1t may be
true that he was sent for by the COM
mittee. but under the circumstances
It was extremely impolite and improp-
er for him to have accepted the inVi-
tation, and it would have been emf
nently correct for him to have declined

PuSS AND HER BABY RAT.

She Refused to Eat the YOungSter

spring.
Tabby, our old cat, lived in the barn
with her family of kittens. She made
her home in the stall of Dandy, one of
the farm horses and the kittens were
always under his feet. But Dandy was
fond of cats. and in some miraculous
way avoided harming his guests.
One day I noticed young rat. about
the size of n full-grown mouse, run
ming about the stall with the kittens.
Surprised that Tabby did not notice 1t,
I caught her and held her nose down to
it. She licked its face and then walked
away. One morning, perhaps week
later, I found Tabby and her family
established on flower bed near the
kitchen door. l gathered the kittens
into my apron, and as I lifted the last
one uncovered the rat. 1t was taking
it's breakfast just as naturally and con-
tentedly as the kitten, but when Tab
by got up the little thing scurried
away unto the sweet peas.

and put them in corner on pile OF

Tabby, after laping 1t moment,
called her family. The kittens res

darted from it's hiding place under the
sacks and scrambled over the edge OF
the saucer, head foremost into the
milk. When it climbed out Tabby at

drinks oil night"
LET some one SO to the Rose tavern,
then. and quickly. Captain Crowle, we
will 20 to the Crown while inquiries
are made. Gentlemen. there Is great
suspicion that an abominable crime
hath been committed and this young
lady hath been forclbly carried away
for the sake of her fortune. take
blame to myself for not making sure
that was placing her in her own
chair. This is my business. But l ask
your help for the honor Of the spa and
the company"
A dozen gentlemen stopped forward
and offered their help and their swords,
If necessary. Among them was Colo
mel LanyOn.
Come, then: let US adjourn to the
Crown and make inquiries. Be Of good
cheer, captain. We will find out which
way they took. If they have nothing
but the chair to carry her away, we
can easily catch them up"
II know my girl" said the captain.
1T Is not one man who can daunt her,
nor will a dozen men force her to mar
ry against her will. If they try, there
will be murder"
IF we cannot find the way they took,
we must scour the country"
At the gates of the garden they learn
ed that the keeper had seen the chair
20 out and observed that it was closely
followed by gentleman whom he
could only describe by his height,
which was taller than the average.
Now, Tom Rising was six feet at least.
At the Crown, in Lord Fylngdale's
room. they held a brief consultation,
after which the gentlemen who had
volunteered their help went out into
the town to make inquiries.
In q few minutes they began to re-
turn. 1t was ascertained that Tom
Rising was not Mt his lodging, nor was
he at the Rose tavern. nor could he be
found mt any of the taverns used by
gentlemen. This strengthened the sus
picion against him. Then one remem-
bered the strange words Of the early
morning in which Tom Rising had
promised his friends that he would be-
fore the next day was done be the rich
est man in the county - rich enough
to play with them until he had stripped
every man rs bare as Adam. Those
words were taken as mere drunken
rawlings. But now they seemed to have
had meaning. Where was Tom Ris-
ing?
Another discovery was that Of the
two men belonging to the chair In
which Molly was carried off. They
were found In one Of the low taverns
by the riverside drinking. One Of them
was already too far gone to speak;

tracing much attention. Mr.. Davis is
running for the Democratic nomination
upon the profit-sharing plan. That
there may be no mistake and that the
people of his county may know all
about his platform, his candidacy and
his principles, he is patronizing the
pers literally. In one Of the leading pa

he has adopted to bring about his elec-

To the People Of Wayne County
L. M. DAVIS,
The Peoples Candidate for Circuit
Clerk:
Office sharing Is my platform. Quail
fication, experience and true Democra-
cy are my recommendations.
If I am elected to the Office of Cir
cult Clerk Of Wayne county will give
to the people Of Wayne county the sum
Of Fourteen Hundred Dollars 81, 100000
as follows:
TO THE CHURCHES $500.
Believing that the churches are the
prime factors for good, and in order
that some public good may be accom-
plished, II elected to the office of Cir
cult Clerk Of this county, I will give
Dollars, a sum equal to one-half years
salary of said office. Each and every
church organization Of all denomina-
tions will receive an equal amount OF
said money which will be prorated
among all sending in their names.
TO THE PEOPLE $500.
To the person making the closest es-
innate Of the total vote that will be
cast for Circuit Clerk Of Wayne coun-
ty in the coming November election,
will give the sum Of $600.00 as follows:
First nearest, $500; second neares, $50;
third nearest, $25; fourth nearest, SIS;
fifth nearest, $40; next so nearest 81
each, 500; next 100 nearest, 81 each,
$100 Total prizes, 1855; total amount OF
prizes, 5000.
TO TAXPAYERS $500.
And to the taxpayers I will give the
sum Of Six Hundred Dollars. That Is
to say, If I am elected I hereby author
ize and direct the County Court of
Wayne county to hold back the sum OF
$100 each year from my public salary
for six years, amounting to $500, and
place the same to the credit Of the
county. Thus, you see. I agree to do
the work for $500 per year instead of
s4OO, as Is now paid as the public sal
ary of the Circuit Clerk. This saves
the taxpayers the sum of 500 for six
years, or $500.

caucus probably will be held Wednesday.
There is som feeling against a caucus
on the part Of the republican senators who
support the reciprocity plan and on ac-
count OF this sentiment there is q growing
possibility that no caucus will be held. No
one doubts that the reciprocity advocates
will be in the majority in a republican

vision. II is the wish Of the leaders to
avoid this exhibition If possible.
The beet sugar men show no disposition
to weaken. They held a conference last
night and again pledged themselves to
stand solidly against the senate bill. They
say as a result Of that conference that
there are no fewer than nineteen republl-
can senators who will announce in the

against the bill for a reduction OF the
tariff. There are some who are willing TO
