WATTERsoN ON CLEvELAND.-Henry
Watterson, in an editorial replying to
the Republican press Of the country at
large, declares that his opposition to
Mr. Cleveland rests upon the specific
statements he has made-that Mr..
Cleveland Is an ill-tempered, self -willed
man, having neither the intellectual
training nor the moral and political in
spiration for Democratic fellowship or
leadership; that he knows little and
cares less about tariff reform; that
such sympathies as he mas are not on
the side Of the plain, common people,
and still less with the lowly and poor,
but on the side Of the strong, the
mighty and the great; that he is per-
sonally an migrate and glutton; that,
because Of his selfishness and his brut-
ishness, he alienated every Democrat Of
consequence in congress who would not
serve him blindly; that, in short, he
found the party a noble unit and left
1t q wreck.
Where ne Is best known he Is most
detested, despite the perpetual wearing
of the self-made halo.
1.-The Republicans may have him and
they want him. The Democrats will
none Of him. They know that when he
comes in at the door harmony flies
out of the window. Hence, with De-
mocracy, the word should be this:
Il know thee not, old man; fall to thy
prayers;
Make less thy body hence and more thy
grace.
Know the grave doth cape
For thee thrice wider than for other
men,"

IT is a pity that Senator Joseph
Bailey lost his temper the other day to
the extent of being betrayed into as
saulting a fellow senator. One of the
ablest men in the senate as he is, there
was reason to hope that Senator Bailey
had better control Of himself. He GER
tainly lost in prestige by the assault
and Beveridge gained all he lost.

WHEN Tillman and McLaurin had
their fight in the senate, that body
sought to protect it's dignity by trying
them for contempt. In neglecting to
investigate the y-Beveridge mat
ter, the senate seems to have volun-
tarily placed itself in contempt.

Mr.. ]. w. Smith has called the at
tention of the reporter to certain mac
curacies in the recent statement about
the killing Of John Byers. The killing
occurred on Mr.. ]. F. A. Smiths place,
instead Of Mr.. Sam Smiths. 1t seems
that Byers, who lived at Mr.. Sam
Smiths, had been out during the day
on account Of some work in behalf of
St. James's church, of which he was a
leading member. In accordance with
custom, he had his double barrel
breach-loading shotgun along with him
to pick up chance squirrels or 9TH
er game. During the evening, at
about 8 o'clock, he pulled up at
the cabin of his son on Mr.. j.
F. A. Smiths place and asked for
some water. He took a seat on the
doorstep while his daughter and daugh-
ter-in-law went to the we'll. AS they
were handing him water on their re-
turn, he changed the gun from one
hand to the other. The barrel slipped
through his fingers and the hammer
struck the doorstep. This caused the
discharge. The load entered the heart
and caused death in a few minutes.
Byers was only about AZ or 4S years of
age, and not 60 as stated. According to
Mr.. Smith he was well-thought of in
the neighborhood as a steady-going, So
ber-minded Negro, who knew his place,
gave sound advice to his people, and
was worthy of respect. Many of the
white neighbors sent their buggies and
carriages for use in connection with the
funeral, which was largely attended.
The burial took place in st. James
burying ground on Tuesday.

OF the week have been generally IaVor-
able for the tobacco crop, which, now
ever, has not made rapid growth in the
Middle Atlantic states as result OF
low temperature.
Chairman Dalzell. of the special
committee of the house Of representa-
tives which investigated the charges IN
connection with the purchase OF the
Danish West India islands, submitted
the report of the committee last Tues
day, showing that Captain Christmas
had repudiated the alleged report on
which the charges were based, the
committee sums up the results of their
investigation as follows: THAT there
is not the slightest semblance of evil
dence that any member of congress,
either directly or indirectly, was Offer
ed or received any bribe or was paid
any valuable consideration of any kind
or character to vote for or assist IN
procuring the proposal, adoption or
ratification of a treaty of sale of the
DanlSn west 1lult lSioiluS " shS SiA
ted States 1t Is plain beyond perad-
venture that the bribery alleged in the
report could have existed nowhere save
in the imagination OF Christmas, since
the whole burden of his story is that
he had no money. 1t is in evidence that
he had to borrow in order to pay his
massage home from this country" The
committee then takes up in detail the
charges that large sum of money
was used to bribe American legisla-
tors. Aside from the inherent improb-

FATHER CLEARY'S LECTURE
Describes a Recent Visit to the Emerald
ISle

1916
NEARLY every man of note in Ire
land who has the interests of his
country at heart has served a term
in JAIL said Father J. Nj. Clearly Of
st. Charles Church last Sunday night
in his lecture, "NIidst Irish Scenes"
1.-The people, in fact, suspect them
of heing dishonest q: disloyal if they
lave lever served IL Jail sentence" he
asserted.
''It is now an honor to be impris-
oned on the suspicion of having dis
loyal intentions toward England"
Father Cleary said that before he
left on his trip to Ireland year ago,
lre had letters of Introduction to seven
prominent Irishmen members of the
house of parliament.
He said that when he reached Lon
don he found six of them in Jail and
the other had not been released very
long.
ireland is not prosperous he coll
tinued, because it has nat the oppor-
tunity to make it's own laws. The peo-
pie also have to support I, standing
army of $4,000 men stationed in their
country, and $4,000 con>tabulary.
Imagine an army of that size in the
state of Minnesota, and the farmers
supporting it! Yet that would not be
worse than conditions over there.
'While an extremely large amount
of liquor is manufactured in Ireland,
but very little of i. is consumed py
the peasantry. \ large amount of it
is used by the landlords and peers who
reside in the country.
II was ON the lookout fer signs Of
intemperance among the people and
saw less of it tnan in all o. the cOun-
tries Of Europe. Dublin is freer from
crimes and other d.soldsls tan any
city of it's size in the world
Father Cleary said THAT with all OF
it's natural advantages Ireland is
steadily losing grounu in commerce.
Sa0der than this, lie said, is the fact
that the people are leaving the coun-
try. Last year nearly 100000 of them
emigrated.
Ireland is really the garden spot of
the world" he concluded.
The lecture was illustrated with a
large number of views, which were
shown by a lantern. Mrs. Parks sweet
ly sang several of Moores melodious
lays.
