AISer and Thurston Reciprocity.

AI1er and Thurston Reciprocity.
When a speaker of either political
party is invited to Detroit, he is treat
ed to the best there is in that ancient
western city. There is, too, certain
exhilaration about the atmosphere of
Detroit that has led many orators to
fall into IMPORTATION and this may &C
count for the extraordinary hyperbole
INDUCED in by ex-senator John NJ.
Thurston in that city. He said:
Blind as bats in the serene sun
shine of his success, they have swarm
ed in the darkness and flung their
puny ink-blots at the shining splendor
of his stainless shield. But the coun-
try knows, and the world knows, and
impartial history VIII declare, that the
war administration of Russell A. Alger
stands first in all annals of recorded
time"
With the taste of the embalmed beef
still lingering in the minds of the
boys and remnants of the coat of
whit ewash that was laid on so thick
that the stainless shield of Alger and
Corbin are still encrusted with 1t, we
certainly have no record to match 1t.
The Thurston utterances must be at
tributed to the lavish entertainment
that the General had with his usual
prodigality poured out to his old
friend. the ex-senator. Thurston,
though filed up with the Detroit at
mosphere and other things, knew he
could not lay it on too thick for Alger
ana he just ''let 'er fly"
The statement made that the eulogy
cost Alger a pretty penny is all rub
bish. Next winter when Congress is In
session and Thurston is attending to
his railroad or trust clients interests,
then Alger can fully repay him for his
burst of eloquence by a vote in com
mittee and no one need be the wiser.

STATES EVIDENCE IN
TILLMAN CASE ALL IN
Nine Witnesses for the Defense on
Stand During the Day.

LEXINGTON, S. c., Oct THE de-
Tense in the case of J. H. Tillman en-
tered upon the presentation of it's tes-
timany today. Solicitor Thurmond
announced when the trial was resumed
that the state had no further evidence
and would rest. Nine witnesses for
the defense were heard. 1t is esti-
mated that the defense will consume
the remainder of the week with it's
witnesses. Juror Sharpe, who has been
sick for the past three days. was able
to take his seat today, although court
was adjourned an hour earlier on his
account
The defense first renewed the motion
to have the jury instructed to disre-
gard all testimony relative to the pos
session of a weapon by the defendant
a day Or two prior to the shooting, con-
tending that no connection had been
shown between that and the shooting
The court ruled that the testimony was
competent, in view of other testimony
given by witnesses for the state
Editorials from the columns of the
State relating to ]. B. Tillman were
then read and offered in evidence by
the defense.
On ruling on a point of controversy
affecting the Introduction of editorials,
the court stated that the purpose for
which the editorials was submitted was
to show the feeling existing between
the defendant and N. G. Gonzales.
James Davis, the last witness call
ed, had but begun his testimony when
Judge Gary ordered an adjournment,
that the sick juror might not be over
taxed

DEEP-DYED CRIMINALS.

The man least tolerant of lynch law
would not sorrow if the dastards who
have been threatening and plotting
outrages along the line Of the North
ern Pacific railroad should be caught
and summary dealt with. There is
not the slightest need of burdening
the courts with the trial of miserable
wretches such as these, nor is there
any penalty short of Immediate ex-
ecution that would fit the crime.
These matchmaking villains have
been for weeks demanding money from
the railroad company under threat of
destroying its property. Batches of
letters have been received in which the
company was held up and it's prop
erty menaced with destruction. That
this is no empty bravalo has appeared
from actual Injuries done from time to
time. Plans to destroy track or trains
have been foiled, but bridges have been
injured, and on Monday night por-
ton OF track was destroyed near Hell
ena and the d1tching of a train was
narrowly prevented.
This passes all the outrages of the
ordinary blackmailer. These scoun-
dreis are willing to jeopardize or de-
stroy the lives of many people to bring
the railroad company to terms. The
company has taken the proper position
In declining to be blaekmaiIed at any
cost, in giving the facts to the public
and in setting itself to capture the
villains. Once pay blood money to
such as these, and no railroad and no
industry In the country would be safe
for an hour. We hope to see the mis-
creants caught without delay and shall
express no regret if any accident should
happen to them on their way to the
nearest jail.

petitors" Mr. Chamberlain is certain
ly cheerful optimist and has neglect

petitors." Mr. Chamberlain is certain
ly a cheerful optimist and has neglect
ed the study of human nature.
The colonies would gladly welcome
any preference granted to them over
their competitors in the British mar
ket. They would probably be willing to
give some reciprocal advantage in
their markets to smother country's
products, but Mr.. Chamberlain knows
less of the colonial spirit than we
think he does if he dreams that any
new country, stimulated by the chicane
of the protective system, would delib-
erately agree not to start certain in
dustries in order that even Great Brit
ain might monopoliZe its markets in
that commodity, and retain a complete
control Of prices.
There is no compromise between
right and wrong and no halfway house
on the road of protection which leads
down to Avernus. The programme that
Mr.. Chamberlain has arranged is the
dream of child, or. the carefully pre-
pared artifice of a disingenuous states
man. 1t is adapted to the ignorant.
1t may possibly persuade the British
workingman, who knows nothing in
his own experience of the working of
protective tariffs who has not the
economic Knowledge, taught by the his
tory of other peoples, that would ex-
pose it's fallacy. The amazing feature
of his campaign, as far as it is adj
dressed to intelligent men, is the fatal
Inconsistency with which he holds a
little tariff to be national blessing
and a national necessity, while tariff
full fledged and of perfect proportions
would be an abomination and a curse.
1t seems impossible that the people
of Great Britain, looking across the
seas at their kin in this country, ia
vored and assisted by everything that
nature could do for them, yet stagger--
ing and writhing under the iniquities
of the protective system carried to
logical completeness, should not refuse
to be bought by the cheap promise that
Mr.. Chamberlain holds out or should
jeopardize their own future by a step
which would be one of the most Ia
mentable ever taken in the develop
ment of British legislation and English
industry.

FERRIS WHEEL MAY BE
TAKEN TO ST. LOUIS FAIR
Big Attraction of Chicago Midway Co.
ing Into Commission Again.

CHICAGO, Oct. THAT the famous
Ferris wheel has been rescued from
the junk pile and will be taken to the
st. Louis exposition is now believed
to be an assured fact. Men are at
work on the North side dismantling
the wheel for local wrecking COM
pany. 1t is said that the company will
be allowed to retain the first $780, 900
of the receipts at the fair grounds.
The cost of the removal and setting
up of the wheel is estimated approx
mately at 100000. After the amount
named in the concession has been re-
ceived, it is said one third of the profits
will go to the owners of the wheel and
the remaining two-thirds to the treas
ury of the exposition. The value of
the wheel as junk is estimated at $780,
600, but because of the expense attend
ing it's removal the present owners are
said to have obtained the wheel for
$500.
The history of the wheel abounds
with legal complications. Time and
again there have been reports of sale
and projects for its removal. After the
worlds fair the wheel was taken to
its present situation on the North side.
The patronage there was too small to
make the running Of the wheel profit
able.
