BOTH HOPEFUL
FOR PARKER
These Two Together with Bel

Stony Hearts and Make
the Money Gush Forth

NEW YORK. October 29.-There
are two noted democrats whose in
fluence Is active and effective in ac-
celebrating the campaign for Parker
and Davis. and yet they are seldom
seen by the everyday visitors to the
National Democratic headquarters
In this city. These men are Senat.
or Arthur p. German OF Maryland
and ex-Secretary OF War Daniel s.
Lamont. Each has assured Candi-
datc Parker OF his belief that the
chances OF democratic success In the
approaching election are fair and
each Is working In his W way to
bring about such success. German
and Lamont appreciate each Others
political qualities. and to that extent
they are friends. Lamont knows
perhaps better than any other man
how much German did toward bring
ing about Cieveland's election to the
Presidency In 1884, and Senator Cor.
man knows Just how much Cleveland
and tho democratic party owe to La.
mont's tact and intuitive knowledge

New Workers Justly pride them
selves on the completeness OF their
telegraph and telephone service in
these days. All the same there vas
a very efficient means OF communica-
ton between the early Dutch set
tiers before the years 1900. It might
be called the first wireless system
used in America, though there was
no electricity about It and the poles
were the Dutch windmills. The
windmill appeared In America al.
most as 0 o as the Dutch set foot On
Manhattan Island. In q few years
there was such a mill on every bit

the same signal with the upper half
OF the mill door open heralded a

a great variety. The signals could
be read a long way off, and by being
repeated on each mill a message could
be sent throughout the island in a
very short time.

Power House Burned.

The old power house on Hall
street, formerly used for generat-
ing power for the electric light
system, took fire Tuesday evening
at $50, and, but for the quick
action Of the fire brigade and the
absence of wind q general confia-
grafton would have resulted. As
it was, the hose companies had two
powerful streams OF water flowing
into the building and soon had it
under control. The lights went
out at once, aud it was thought
that we should be in darkness for
q month, but yesterday the lights
were rnnning as bright as ever all
over the city, except in the south
end, and they win probably be in
order again this evening. The
necessity for hook and ladder
apparatus was made evitlentin this
fire in order to cut hole in the
roof Of the burning building and
give the hose a chance to be con.
veyed directly into the heart oi
the fire among the rafters. The
building will stand, but it is q
total wreck, together with the
three transformers and other ap-
paratus, such as the dynamos. The
building and contents were partial.
ly covered with insurance.

Editor FREE PREss:-
This town is enlivened somewhat
on account Of the completion of the
wagon road and from ten to twenty
6-horse teams, loaded with machin-
cry, ETC., are arriving daily. The
only draw back the freighters ex-
perience is shortage Of feed. Oats
are very high here and it is almost
impossible for them to carry enough
grain, with full load Of freight,
to do them on their trip. The
Sunnyside Co. feel confident in
getting their mill machinery in be-
fore the roads become nnpassable.
The stores and mining companies
also feel sure of getting in plenti-
full stock before winter. There
was quite an excitement here yes
terday on account of Dan Cotter
making q remarkable strike in his
shaft between the Dewey and Sun
nyside mines. He was running in
Porphry and struck streak which
was perfectly impregnated with
free gold. The extent of this
streak is not known as we have
been unable to learn of any later
developments.
There is to be a newspaper start.

"Thunder Mountain News.n and

The first publication is supposed to
be out by October l.
The political attitude here al
present seems to be on an equa'

it will be democratic, on account
of their being principally miners

Sentences Awarded.

At the opening of court on Tues
day morning, Judge Steele SEN
fenced Wetter, the murderer, to
be hanged by the neck on Decem-
Der 1st, and in awarding the ut
most penalty of the law the Judge
stated that in all his legal career
he had never heard Of more fla
grant and cold blooded murder.
The prisoner will, in due time, be
conveyed to the State penitentiary
at Boise, where the sentence will
be carried out.
On the same occasion the Judge
sentenced Dick Crea to term of
four and one-half years, and in his
remarks said that the sentence was
more in the nature Of an example
than q punishment, as so many
good citizens had testified to his
previous good conduct, and there
was undoubtedly more or less
provocation for the deed. This is
the same sentence as before.

We take pleasure in reproduc-

last Mondays News and Courier
signed ga Visitor" which gives
a very nice description Of Man
ning's industry and progress,
and with the exception of a cou-
pie of immaterial errors, it is
very correct. Usually we do
not disclose the name of an anon
ymous writer, but in this case,
we feel so grateful for the valu-
able :'write-up," that we wish
our readers to join US in appre-
ciating the kindness of Mr.. Ros-
well T. Logan, an eminent
member Of the News and Cou-
rier's staff, who spent few
days in our town on a visit to his
brother-in-law Mr.. Jesse S.
Plowden. Mr.. Logan married in
1868. Miss Alice Plowden of this
county, and this was his first
to Manning since that time.
It was our pleasure during
Mr.. Logan's short stay to make
him acquainted with some OF our
people, and what was being done
here, and knowing his devotion
to the News and Courier which
he has served beyond an ordina-
ry lifetime, we gave him all the
information we possessed, being
satisfied that ne would do just
what he has done, given to the
country at large the information
that there is in South Carolina
a town, beautiful and healthy,
firmly established and growing,
and this Mr.. Logan has done in
a concise. comprehensive man
ner, calculated to attract atten-
ton wherever the widely circu-
lated News and Courier goes. In
behalf of ourself and the citizens
of Manning we sincerely thank
Mr.. Logan for the valuable ad-
vertisment he has given our

The great State of New York
has had its convention and al.
though it was not a harmonious
one. it nevertheless demonstrate
ed the utter failure of Tammany
to control. The delegates head,
ed by former Senator David B.
Hill are instructed to vote for
Judge Alton B. Parker for Pres
ident, and we now look for a
majority Of the States to follow
New York's suit and that Judge
Parker will be the nominee OF
the Democratic party. The fact
of Parker and Roosevelt being
from the Empire State, will
make the battle in New York a
fierce one and the Republicans
over the country will have the
fight Of their lives to win. Judge
Parker is popular and without a
record to attack, while Roose-
welt has made many enemies
and has a record that is con-
stantiy being attacked.
When the convention assem-
bles at ST. Louis. the Bryan ele-
ment will oppose the naming of
Parker, and will makea vigorous
fight for Hearst who has alread-
" a number of States instructed
for him. In our opinion South
Carolina will favor Parker, but
it's delegation will go uninstruct.
ed, in fact, it would be the part
| of wisdom not to instruct.

It is with reluctance that we Under
take to send you any news from here
! this week, but we feel that through
justice to the town we must do so. We
see news from almost every other sec
ton, and we can't afford to be behind
the times. Ours is one Of the mos up
to-date towns in the county. AMI we
propose to keep up-to-date.
Our farmers are going around with
long faces waiting for the weather to
turn warm again. They are thinking
how hard it will be to undertake to
plant their whole cotton crop over. We
hope this will not be necessary.

Mr.. W. G. johnson who has been
sick for the last day or two is able to
be up again. Mr.. johnson is a Jolly
good fellow, and we are glad indeed
that his illness was brief. Even as it
was we missed him very much. His
illness caused a standing engagement
to be broke which could not be filled by
any other. We have no doubt though,
that the lost time will be made up as
soon as he is able.
Mr. J. P. Meehan spent-yesterday at
his home in Columbia.
Mr.. G. NJ Mason of Foreston was in
town last week. He is a knight of tile
grip. We didn't know this, but when
he shook our hands we knew he was a
man with grip. We didn't know him,
but he soon made himself known. and
told us that he was a candidate for
Clerk of the Court. He is about the
cleveaest drummer we have had.
The other fellows had better get to

Senator Tillman's condition ha:

Senator Tillman's condition has
not improved since his return to
Washington. He will come
back home, and on account of
his indisposition the Crum nom
ination has been postponed, and
will hardly be acted upon in the
present session. It is thought
however, should the Senate
fail to act, the President
will reappoint him during the
recess, thus continuing Crum in
the Office. It does strike US that
the Senate should dispose of this
appointment one way or another.
If it does not want to confirm
Crum it should say SO, and re-
lieve the President so that he
can make an appointment which
will be approved by the Senate.

who was charged with bartering
a postofice appointment, and Vi
olation of law with regard to the
rent of a building, was tried in
the United States court and
found not guilty upon a techni-
cality. The press of the country
was very severe on the Senator
for taking advantage of a loop
hole. The Senator insisted upon
his innocence and demanded a
thorough Investigation by the
Senate: this has been had, and
the committe consisting of three
Republicans and two Democrats
make a unanimous report declar-
ing Senator Dietrich guiltless of
any corrupt or unworthy con-
duct. It is very evident that the
Nebraska Senator was victim of
political spleen, and had it not
been for his determination to
have full light thrown upon his
transactions, his enemies would
have succeeded in casting stig-
ma upon his character,as tits, he
comes out of the fire unscathed
