TunneIed ont az .Tntf.

APLING, Ga. Feb. 26. Four prison
ers confined In the county Jail here
have made their escape from prison by
tearing up a portion OF the Jail floor
and tunneling path to the edge of the
building. A pile of sand and dirt found
under the Jail steps showed that the
men had been working for some time
to effect their escape. A note left to the
jailer said the men had been working
on the tunnel since the 10th of Febru-
airy and declared that all efforts to eff
feet their recapture would be futile.

The Democrat is not yet ready to
believe that there is one man. or a
body Of men, be they politicians or
demagogues," in the city that would
keep the strike question on edge for
their own special benefit liz there
are such men in town, as has been hint
ed at by our two contemporaries, show
them up. Why keep firing shots in
the dark? We have no doubt but
what many, yes, very many of our cit
liens sympathize with the strikers and
are with them in all reasonable and
just demands, but that is no reason
why they should be denounced as poll
ticians and demagogues, seeking to
further their own ambitions. This is
a critical time in the affairs of the city,
and no body OF men should be allowed
to Cypress any number of their fellow
citizens, whether it be the officials of
the trolley company or the friends of
the strikers, and neither should edi-
tors of papers be too quick to stir up
animosities in the editorial columns of
the paper, or under assumed names.
This is a time when good Judgment
should be used and cool heads should
be at the helm. If any body Of re-
putable citizens feel that they have a
grievance, and desire TO get together,
why denounce them as lawless citi-
Gems and disturbers OF the peace? This
is a free country and the men that
gathered at City hall last evening were
within their rights. III It Is proposed
to foist an Objectionable law over
their heads, why. have they not the

LONDON, Feb 26.--All this morn
ing's papers dwell in their editorials on
the remarkable fact that the Irish de-
bate in the house Of commons passed
off without single harsh or defiant
expression. Such an occurrence is re-

parliament, and the hope is expressed
that the present may prove mo-

-Four Lives Lost and Several People
Injured.
Aberdeen, Wash--FIre which burn
ed from O'Clock in the morning IN
al 2 in the afternoon, caused at least
four deaths and destroyed property
valued at approximately s1.o00.000.
It practically wiped out the main bust
ness street Of the town. which Is built
mostly OF wood. In the burned district
are included ten blocks Of business
houses and residences. Not more than
one-half Of the loss is covered by In
gurance, for the reason that the in
surance companies have refused to
carry any greater risk on account Of
the innammable material OF which all
the buildings In Aberdeen are con-
structed. Every business in Aberdeen
is a loss, whether by FIRE. water. re-
moval breakage, or loss by theft. Not
anticipating that the flames could get
beyond the fire departments control
many waited until the FIRE was close
upon them before starting to move
out. The streets were soon strewn
and Uttered with all kinds OF ma
terial and the rush and haste Of teams
and people in every direction caused
great confusion.
The fire started in the old Mack
building on Hume street, owned by
Oscar l.. Grain, which has been re
garded as IRE trap and dangerously
constructed building. II was three
stories high and was occupied by nu-
merous single meA who cooked their
own meals, chiefly On oil stoves. II
was in a room OF the third story where
the flames started, and the interior
of the building was q mass Of flames
when an alarm was sent in. The build
ing was leased by Louisa Selberg, who
had Just fitted It up with new furni.
ture. She escaped with her children,
saving no clothes.
Four lost their lives in the fire. They
