TREASON BY DEMOCRACY.

The key note OF the Democratic cam
paign was sounded by Wood Daley,
chairman of the Charleston convention
when he gave utteranee to the following
remarkable declaration:
"The Democratic party has not tried
to run counter to the DEGREES of God
Almighty and that when God made
white men and black men and made
them unequal no Democratic conven-
tion will ever try to wipe out that
Divine law"
The race question is what that means.
An effort TO return to slavery is wat
it signifies. An intention to disfran.
ehise the negro is what they have.
In this enlightened age, in tbs Chris
tian civilization, who in West Virginia
will subscribe 10 the doctrine certain
Democrats hold that the colored people
are without souls? What Christian will
consent for political party TO say
that God made a human being without a
soul' What man of enlightenment will
say that the negroes are mere brutes of
the field and should be permitted to live
only as beasts of burdeng
With such astonishing doctrine as this
taking hold of a political party, it is
nigh time that the people of the country
should first gather enmasse at the polls
and fight hard against such dangerous
movement to corrupt and disrupt the
fabric of our civilization, of our free.
dom of our religion, and. if necessary
We should take up arms to defend our
country and our flag. Treason seems to
be fast taking hold of certain Democrat.
ic leaders, who have beer anhungered for

and outlawry to accomplish their ends.

FOR LONG CONTEST.
Supreme Secretary ColweIl Says the
 Order Will FiGht.

A suit has been brought against tLe Knights of Columbus by Che heirs of t. ex-Mayor CoUghlin of 8a l1g- port. It is for the payment of a death benefit of $1,0O0, which the plaintiffs allege the organization re- fuses to pay, giving as its reasons that MT Coughlin was not in good standing, being a Free Mason.
 The suit is brought by James A. Coughlin, Jane Coughlin, Celia 1T. Coughlin, Alexander F. Coughlin, Elizabeth Coughlin, Frederick Cough lin of Bridgeport and Robert +. Coughlin of Annapolis, and Henry E. shannon, administrator of the estate of the late Ellen Coughlin, all heirs of the deceased.
 The complainant claims that MT Coughlin joined the order in 1886 and continued member until the time of his death, last February; that he paid his assessments and at the time of his death his estate was entitled to the sum of $1,0O0 from the organization. This, 1t is claimed, the organization refuses to pay and suit for $1,200 is brought.
 Daniel Colwell, head of the Knights of Columbus, said, when asked about the case last night:
 ''Yes, the Coughlin estate has brought suit against the Knights of Columbus. The case will come up in the courts and we will fight it to the finish.
 'In 1886 MT CoughIin Joined the Bridgeport council in Bridgeport. He signed a paper at the time stating that he was a Roman Catholic, under which oath he was admitted to the order. He was insured for $1,000 and at the time of his death 1t was learned that he was a Free Mason. Had 1t been known at the time he applied for membership in the Knights he would have been refused by all means. A practical agreement was made with the heirs that the organization would refund the amount of dues which MT Coughlin had paid, which amounted to about $500. This they agreed to and nothing more was done until the Sher- if served an attachment upon the Knights of Columbus in behalf of the Coughlin heirs. Now we will fight and I don't think they will get nearly as much as they would have had they stuck to their agreement and taken the $500.
 "A similar case was brought in court not long ago and the court up held the organization. The plaintiffs in this case will find the Knights have plenty of money with which to fight the case and it promises to be a long contest"
 MT Colwell stated that Attorney Stiles Judsen of Bridgeport will be counsel for the Coughlin heirs and that Attorney James ID. Mcconnell of Fltchburg, Mass, will represent the Knights of Columbus.

 Tn stating his position upon the issuea formulated in the platform of his par ty the nominee declares:
 That constitutionalism versus impe rialism is the paramount question to be decided by the people.
 That the tariff should be reformed and revised by the friends of the masses rather than the friends of ita benefciaries.
 That official extravaganza is officia. crime, meriting swift and certain pun. lshment.
 That dourishing the big stick over South American republics is un-Ameri can and long stride toward admins trative tyranny at home
 That the method of acquiring tho Panama canal Is questionable
 That he accepts the challenge oi President Roosevelt In relation to ex ecutive pension order No. 7S, and thai if he shall be elected he will revoke the order and endeavor to compass the end desired through legislation by con gress.
 Finally Judge Parker says:
 ''The people must decide"
