The Central American republics are
not badly off because they have die
tators but because they have weak
ones 1t seems impossible for the mix
ed Latin and Indian races in that part
of the world-or in any part, for that
matter-to govern themselves. They
need to be giverned. Mexico advances
by leaps and bounds under Diaz who
has been its ruler since 1876, except foI
one term, and while ne lives and reigns
it will be a prosperous and orderly COM
monwealth More Diaz's are needed

HGEIl ROADS.

Gen. NC. Butler has recently
made speeches in Augusta, at tht
Charleston Exposition, at Raleigh,
N. C.,and elsewhere in advocacy OF
a public awakening Oh the road
subject. Here is something he said
at Raleigh, which should command
attention in Edge6eld as nowhere
else:
eff something is not done in my
section of the county, do not
know how it is with you-the de-
population of the country districts
will be complete; the people are
not going to live where they can.
not get about. The young men will
come to the towns and cities: the
tendency ls everywhere towards the
concentration of population and
the depopulation of, the country
districts; but decent roads will OBJ
viate this to e great degree.
l have recently been trying to press
this important view to the atten-
ton of the people of Edge6eld
county. Asl have before urged,
and az Gen. Butler says, if some
thing is not done soon "the de-
population of the country will be
complete" I cannot understand
how some people can sit down and
gee their property depreclating in
value every day and be unwilling
to do anything to stop it. AS | have
before called attention to the fact,
in many parts of our county there
are fewer white people now than
there were before the war. The
county along the railroads though,
have generally increased in popula
ton. Land in the interior of the
county worth twenty years ago $40
and $12 an acre, with the people
rich who owned large plantations,
now goes begging at $5 and less.
Why ? Because the people have
shifted some land has gone up
(on the railroads aid interior
land has gone down. Because of
this decline in value our people
have been impoverished to great
degree great many Of them have
had to mortgage and sell their
land, som has b Q n sol d
by the sheriff, bringing little tor
their all. This is because. of the con-
dition of the roads - the transpor-
tation facilities. AS Gen. Butler
says, people are not going to live
where they can't get about. They
gradually go to better localities in
rl,o;r own county or elsewbe-r. The

FIRST MEETING.

What may be very proper
ly called the first campaign
meeting was held at Don
ald's, Abbeville county, on
Saturday last at which the
candidates for governor, for
the United States senate and
for congress spoke. t h e
meeting was not as largely
attended as was expected.
Everything passed off quietly
and pleasantly. The candi-
dates discussed measures in
stead of men. The cause OF
education, especially the COM
mon schools, was champion
ed by every aspirant for CUB
ernatorial honors. This is
we'll. We trust and !, lie
that much good will
this agitation of ti;e 81, i
school que ton. If this, the
first meeting of the campaign,
is a fair specimen of what
those that follow are to be,
much good will result from
them instead of much evil, as
has been the case for a dozen
years and more.
The first campaign meet
ings according to the regular
schedule were held on yester-
day-State in Sumter, FEEDER
eral in Columbia.

report that the Burlington had call
ed off the proposed building of a line
from its terminus at Billings to Great

abandon its construction, and says
there is a probability of the line be-
ing built further than Great Falls.
General Superintendent Calvert said
That the Burlington had given no
orders to stop work on the line being
surveyed from Billings to Great Falls.
He received orders several months
ago to survey such line and at once
put engineers in the field. The work
IL now about done. although one
party, working not far from Great
Falls. will keep in the field for ten
days yet.
He has as yet received no orders tn

for that work may come at any time.

PERCY DE WOLFE AGAIN.
Charged by His Counsel That He Was
Not Tried Fairly.

Attorney James w. Freeman, coun-
sci for Percy De Wolfe, who at the
last term of court was convicted of
bringing stolen horses into Cascade
county and was sentenced to a term
Of eleven years in the state peniten-
tiary, has filed in the district court
the longest bill of exceptions that has
ever been recorded in the court OF this
county. 1t covers II pages of type
written matter and, in part, furnishes
q sensation.
In this latter respect it contains an
affidavit by l.. l.. Harmon, a well
known carpenter and builder of this
city, to the effect that on October 81
while the affiant, Frank Wocasek and
E. r. Race, the latter two of whom
were jurors on the trial of De Wolfe,
we're walking in the corridor of the
court house, in answer to question
whether or not he knew De Wolfe
Wocasek replied, "Yes, damn him! ]
know him better than anybody" or
words to that effect.
1t is also charged that at the time
the jury in the case was called there
were twelve names which should have
been in the box which were not.
1t included an affidavit from De
Wolfe to the effect that at the time he
is charged with bringing the horses
into Cascade county he was being
married to the daughter of Henry Pow.
ell at st. Mary's on the Blackfeet re.
servation.
There are many other allegations
set forth in the bill, including all the
objections made by Attorneys Free
man and Bremen of Kalispell in
charge of his defense.
De Wolfe is at the present time in
carcerated in the Deer Lodge peniten
tiary.
During the time of his trial he was
confident of acquittal and shortly af
ter the verdict was returned he at
tempted to take his own life by swal
lowing cyanide in the court house
closet, which he had been permitted
to enter by Deputy Sheriff Emerson
at his own request.-Tribune.
