PARKER MAY
STUMP IN
WISCONSIN

Esopus, Aug. 1S-Nearly every dele
cation arriving at ROsemOunt from the
west urges Judge Parker to go on a
stumping tour during the campaign
and visit all the doubtful states. This
was the object of a visit yesterday
from G.. V. Menzies and John Spencer
Of Indiana. So much encouragement
was received that they remained over
night at Judge Parker's home to dis
cuss the subject of a western trip.
Judge Parker determined soon after
his nomination by the st. Louis con
ventiOn that he would conduct a per
sOnal campaign from ROsemOunt, but
since the notification ceremonies, so
much pressure has been brought to
bear on him that he has promised to
give the invitations serious cOnsidera-
ton. The suggestion has been made
that Judge Parker extend his trip to
the st. Louis exposition to take in
number o. cities in Indiana and other
states that are regarded as doubtful
by the democratic campaign managers.

GEORGIA NEGROES WHIPPED,
SHOT AND BURNED.
DRASTIC MEASURES TAKEN
Siatesboro Whites Deliberately Plan
to Free the Locality of Undesirable
Darkies - Negroes not Strong
Enough to Make the Trouble
Race War.

StatesbOro. Ca, Aug. 1S.-The casti-
CATION of negroes concluded yesterday
following the burning at the stake the
previous day. The developments of
the day include:
One negro found dead by the road
side, his body pierced by two bullets.
Two negroes, father and son, shot
in their cabin during the late hours of
Tuesday night by marauders.
A half-dozen cases of flogging, which
are of nightly occurrence, too frequent
to excite more than passing notice.
The scene OF excitement has shifted
from Statesboro to the rich agricultu-
raj region surrounding it. At Biggs
Mill several white planters yesterday
deliberately planned how to rid the
neighbOrhood of negroes. Individual
negroes were marked for lashings and
last night part of the program was
carried out. A black man and a black
woman were marked last night at Reg
lister. Their offenses were disrespect-
full protests against white supremacy.
Their names were given to the Assoc
ciated Press correspondent.
Ii is not race war. for the violence
is all on one side. 1t is a determined
effort on the part of large class OF
citizens TO rid the community of a
class of blacks that is said TO have
made life unsafe. Men of property
and family make no secret of their in
tentions or of their approval of the
drastic measures. If the lash will not
quell the undesirable ones or cause
them TO leave, sterner measures will
follow, so say the leaders.
These facts were made clear to
the correspondent yesterday during
a drive of 20 miles through the coun-
try. A review of the happenings
brings some expression of regret at
Tuesdays violence, while many say
it was "all right" Judge DAILY
yesterday said:

by the governor to call for what
troops I deemed necessary, | had Cut
