Tom Watson's Campaign.

Thomas Watson, of Georgia, can
didate on the Populist ticket for the
Presidency, made a campaign speech
before small audience at Jackson,
Miss, on Tuesday of last week.
Mr.. Watson said the Populist
movement was on it's feet again, and
that it would continue before the
American people until it was tri-
umphant. He said that there was
no difference between Roosevelt and
Parker, there being but one disagree
ment, that on the pension order
He said that it was matter of in
difference to him whether the Popu-
lists were hurting the Democratic or
Republican party the most, explain
ing that the reason he devoted most
of his attention to the Democrats in
the South was because it was from
this party he expected to poll votes
Mr.. Watson finished his letter OF
acceptance while in the city and left
for Birmingham.

Compiling the Confederate Rolls.

Col. M. p. Tribble, of Anderson,
has at last completed the work of
compiling the Confederate rolls for
this State. Some months ago the
War Department decided 20 ask all
of the Governors of the various
Southern States to file with the de-
partment roster of all those who
saw service in the Civil war. Gov
ernor Hayward appointed Col. Trib-
BILE for this State, and since then the
work has been started aud many
difficulties in getting names and
companies were met with. The
work, however, is now complete and
the rolls have been sent on to Wash
ington to be copied and returned to
the owners, and the book receipting
for them has been turned over to the
Governor. Over 200 new rolls were
discovered, and as near as can be
ascertained, there was a total of
6S,447 men in the service, not in
Guiding those who were in reserve at
Home.

A Card from S. K. Cannon.

Lavonia, Ga, September 26.-Edi-
tors Kuowee Courier: In last weeks
issue of your paper notice that
your correspondent from Gainesville
stated that the Populist offices have
been chasing men to fill them since
nominations were made some four
weeks ago. He further states that j..
w. Mcfarland declined to accept
the nomination for county treasurer.
Then it was offered to Mr.. Jordan,
who declined then to S. X. Cannon,
who, it is claimed, has accepted.
AS to the above, if there is any
truth in it at all | do not know it ;
but in reference to myself as ever
having the nomination rendered to
me or my accepting the same, take
this method to denounce as false and
malicious. presume the Popullsts
of this county will be able to find
enough men in their party to accept
all their nominations.
Yours truly,
S. Il. Cannon.

Great Cotton Picking Record.
[Anderson Mail, September 2s.-

Anderson Mail, September rs.
Rev. l.. f. Campbell, one OF AN.
derson county's most popular citl-
zens, was GO years old last Sunday.
He couldn't very well have a birth
day celebration on a Sunday, so he
waited until Monday and went out
into the field early in the morning
and picked 1875 pounds OF cotton by
dinner time. Mr.. Campbell is as spry
and active as many man of 40
years old, and says he is just as young
as he looks and feels. The Baptists
of the State have a plan on foot for
each member of the church to give
one days work in each year to the
support of the Connie Maxwell or.
phanage at Greenwood. MIR. Camp
bell will count his cotton picking as
half days work for the orphanage,
and will do another special half days
work for the orphanage later on and
send the money to that institution.

STATE HOUSE DOME STILL UNDER FIRE.
Commission Does Not Accept the Report Of
Kort Berie-Employsd Other Experts.

"The commission not having been
satisfied with the report OF kort
Berle upon the dome of the State
house, had it examined by other ex-
perts, who confirmed the report made
by G.. G. Wilson as to the safety of
it's condition. The commission, there
fore, has decided to- do no further
work on the State house than what is
now contracted for, the plant for
heating and ventilation, and will
make full report to the Legislature
of the reasons for not carrying on the
work"
The statement above was given to
the press last night by the committee
appointed by the Legislature to pro-
vide for the completion of the State
capitol. This commission was to
contract for such repairs as might be
found necessary and to install new
heating plant. The members of this
commission are: Senators j. q.
Marshal, and Geo. III. Won kolnitz,
Jr., and Representative Altamont
Moses, g. j. Colcock and S. II. ID.
Lancaster.
The commission met yesterday, in
$, ected the extensive arrangements
for installing the heating apparatus,
and seemed to be pleased with the
work. No statement III regard to
any proceedings of the commission
could be secured from any of the
members except the above quoted
official announcement.
This will come as surprise 10 the
people of South Carolina. The
commission asked Gov. Hayward to
get an expert to decide between the
contention Of G. G. Wilson that the
dome of the State capitol is unsafe
and the claim of g. p. Milburn that
it is safe. Gov. Hayward complied
with the request of the commission
and asked the secretary of the treas
ury to send one of his best men here.
Kort Berle was designated to look
over the work at the capitol. His
report, published some time ago, was
favorable in every particular to MIR.
Milburn and contained number of
sarcastic references to the calcula-
tions of Mr.. Wilson. The commits
sion based its appeal for expert in
spection on the ground that it was
desired to place in the main lobby of
the building handsome steel cell
ing to take the place of the one put in
by the contractors under Mr.. Mil
burns directions. 1t was declared
by G. G. Wilson, the architect
employed by the commission, that
the dome of the capitol is now
resting on imperfect support,

Pickens, September 2S.-The large
barn and contents, belonging to Dis
penser b. G. Baker, were burned last
Tuesday night. The barn was on
Mr.. Bakers farm, about two miles
from Pickens. The tenants in charge
OF the farm did not notify Mr.. Baker
of his loss until early next morning
and there was then but little chance
of satisfactory investigation. There
is hardly reasonable doubt but thai
the fire was of incendiary origin.
Mr. Bakers loss was between $500
and 5000. Four thousand bundles
of fodder, SO bushels of oats and
about 10000 feet of lumber were de-
stroyed. Mr.. Baker is at loss to
know why any one would intiict
such malice upon him, and will offer
"A liberal reward for the apprehension
of the guilty.

WHAT WILL RAILROAD SENA
TORS DO?

The presidents of fourteen railroads
met recently, in New York. to decide
on ways and means of defeating the /
Presidents recommendation to Cou- |
gress in regard to giving the Inter
State Commerce Commission power
to fix rates.
Nobody expected the railroads tc
''lie down" and let the Presidents
just recommendations become law. They
will fight. of course. and if they ceu-
troll enough members of the Senate
to block this legislation it will not be
enacted. 1t is well known that the big
railroads elect men to represent them
in the Senate in other States than
in the face of a public demand, sucn
as the present. these railroad Senators

1t has been the subject of special in

Courier Democrat., 1904-08-04

CAVALIER COUNTY is honored by the
democratic state convention held at
Grand Forks having selected j. B.
Boyd, of this city to head the list of the
four presidential electors. The entire
ticket from top to bottom as nominated
is strong one and is one on which the
voters of the party can put up cam
paign with every prospect of victory.
Every candidate is man who can be
depended upon to work for the success
of the ticket. The dissension that has
existed among the rank and file of the
republican party in this state, since
the high handed action taken by the
bosses in their state convention gives
reasonable cause to expect support from
many over the state who realize that
this year the democratic party is able
to give relief to an existing condition OF
affairs that at last has become unbear-
able to the common people.

VOL. Xxx, NO. I.

The present issue of the COURIER
DEMOCRAT is No. l, of Volume Xxx, and
marks the beginning of the twentieth
year of the publication of this paper,
giving 1t an age and priority over any
OF the newspapers published in the
county. Aside from this fact the
COURIER DEMOCRAT feels that it can
justly lay claim to having succeeded
fairly we'll in keeping abreast with the
growth and progress that in the past
twenty years has given this county such
prominence along every line with the
older counties in the state. The wide
circulation which the paper has attained
since the first establishment of the
COURIER in 1885, we feel satisfied has
come largely through an honest effort
to give the readers the best newspaper
that is possible, especially from local
and county news point. To our readers
one and all, we hope that the futnre
may have a goodly share of success for
each and all. In the meantime we
shall continue to try and make the
COURIER DEMOCRAT the best local news
paper printed in this part of the state.

MORE than $1,000 people will register
for chance to secure quarter section
of land in the Devils Lake Indian reser-
vation this month. While many of
those who register really want land
upon which to live and make a liyeli-
hood, the majority register because the
element of chance appeals to them.
The land drawing is nothing more nor
less than a gigantic lottery conducted
by the government, with chances Of
drawing prize fewer than in the old
Louisiana lottery of evil fame. Thous-
ands will be drawn to Devils Lake and
Grand Forks, the registration points,
by the appeal to the gambling spirit.
II the government has any more land
to dispose of it is to be hoped that some
other method Of disposition will be
evolved. The nation cannot afford to
sanction virtual gambling games like
the Devils Lake Indian reservation
drawing.
