Raise for Judge Parker.

New York, May 3.-Today's Tribune,
in front page story, says:
August Belmont, ex-senator David
B. Hill, Senator McCarren, William
T. Sheehan and Cord Meyer plan to
raise in this city compaign fund of
S5, 600, 000 for use next summer and
fall in New York, Connecticut, New
Jersey and Indiana.
The work of raising this fund will
fall almost entirely upon Mr.. Belmont,
who has indicated that he is willing
to assume responsibility for financing
the campaign if Judge Parker is nom
mated at ST. Louis If Parker is not
nominated, Mr.. Belmont and his CO.
workers will not overtax themselves
in raising funds for the national COM
mittee.
The money will be spent by David
B. Hill and Senator McCarren.
Probably any request that Mr.. Belmont
may make with reference to spending
the money after he has raised it will
receive respectful consideration, but
Hill and McCarren will be the real
managers Of the campaign and will
decide where the money is to 60.
This campaign fund Of S.. 000, COO will
be larger, approximately, by 81, 500, 900
than the Cleveland campaign fund of
1892. There was raised in New York
that year So, 500, COO, and the greater
part of this was spent in New York,
Connecticut, New Jersey and Indiana.

a HIGH COMPLIMENT.
Assistant Adjutant General Patrick Says
Graded School Company is Next to
Best Drilled Company in State.

Col. j. NJ. Patrick returned from
Sumter yesterday where be inspected
the military company of the Sumter
Graded School. The boys of the
four higher grades have adopted
the military feature and have guns
and uniforms. This, it is said, is the
only graded school in the south which
has military feature.
There were &c boys in line yester-
day for inspection, and although the
ages ranged from nine to Is years,
Col. Patrick says it is the best drilled
company, with possibly one exception,
in the State. Cadet Captain Manning,
son of State Senator Manning, is due
the credit for the success of this boy
company. The citizens of Sumter are
proud of their graded school and its
military character. Prof. S. H. Ed
munds is the superintendent. The

Winchester, Tenn, May 5.-Henry
Judge, Joe DELPHI and John Evans
were hanged here today for the mur-
der of.Simon Bucher and his wife last
August. The three men exhibited
the same Indifference and stolidity
that marked their condcut during the
trials, and walked without assistance
to the scafolds. Each of them made
a short speech, expressing prepared
ness. All said their only regret was
that they were leaving their wives
and children. None of them made any
reference to the deed for which they
paid the penaly.

A Question of State Rights.

Washington, May 4.-The only in
formation the Department Of State
has touching the reported friction
between Mexico and the State Of
Texas over the question of cattle quar-
antine, is contained in short tele-
gram from United States Consul Gen
eral Hanna at Monterey, saying that
Texas has threatened a quarantine
against Mexican cattle, that the Mex
can cattle are free from disease and
that the proposed acion might lead
to retaliation The matter may in
volve an interesting question as to the
supremacy of State and National quar-
antine laws. The Department of
Agriculture, through the bureau Of
animal industry will probably take
part in the investigation likely to be
made.

Bryan and Parker.

According to The New York World
Mr.. W. j. Bryan held very different
opinion of Judge Parker so late as
last year from what he pretends to
think of him now. That paper pub
fishes two of Mr.. Bryan's expressions
of opinion Of the New York chief JUS
tice, the one made last year the other
in his Chicago speech of last week:
81 consider Judge Parker an able,
conscientious and energetic statesman,
broad minded and full of progressive
ideas. ''-Bryan in an interview with
J. T. Woods Merrill in 1900
"Judge Parker is not fit man to
be nominated either by the democratic
party or any other party that stands
for honesty or fair dealing in poll
tics. Bryan in speech delivered at
Chicago on April 81, 1904.
Mr. Bryan in 1900 went on to say
Of Judge Parker to his friend Merrill /:
"And with him We could be sure
Of New York, Connecticut and New
jersey
The World says Mr.. Bryan wanted
Judge Parker to occupy the second
place on the ticket with him in 1900.
Mr.. Bryan should tell the public
what the New York chief justice has
done in the last four years to cause
him to so change his opinion of the
latter.

ed the everlasting gratitude of every
music lover of this country, by his
audacity in taking up a fight against
long odds and transplanting ''Parsi-
fal, - that remarkable and so sacredly
guarded work of Richard Wagner on
American soil It was great ven
ture and it is doubtful whether it
could have been accomplished at all
by any other uan. 1t is even more
doubtful whether any other manager
could have succeeded in making the
performance of "Parsifal' On Ameri-
can soil as dignifed an artistic sue
cess as Mr.. Conried made it.
Another theatrical event of impor-
tance took place during the past
week. The old partnership of Joe
Weber and Lew Fields, which has
been in existence for over twenty
eight years and has made the Weber
& Fields Music Hall the incubator of
many remarkable comedy successes,
has been dissolved. Fields has given
out that he will be associated with
Fred r. Hamlin and Julian Mitchell
in new theater to be built on Broad
way and Forty third street by Nathan
Stein, Louis Beers and Charles Rein
hardt. It is expected that the new
house will be built by next year and
that it will be used for the production
of spectacular shows and big musical
comedies.
AS was expected the bottom has
dropped out of the Hearst boom,
which, for a while at least, caused
some of the democratic candidates
and party leaders sleepless nights and
uncomfortable hours during the day.
The managers of the Hearst boom in
the East have recognized the fact
that the boom, so far as the east is
concerned, has ANONYMOUSLY col
lapsed like soap bubble. The un-
sophisticated West, or at least some
disgruntled Democratic reformers in
the West are still holding out, but it
is merely a. question of time, when
the Hearst boom in all parts Of the
country will be as dead as a door
nail. The frisky would-be candidate
should have remembered the golden
words of the lamented president Lin
coin concerning the possibility of
fooling all the people all the time.

The New York Tribune says that
Mr.. John Sharp Williams has at q
single session of Congress demonstrated
his special fitness for the position
which he holds on the floor of the
House as Democratic leader He
has the temper and qualities. says the
Tribune, of an admirable floor man
ager and the intelligence and force to
hold his own in any parliamentary
struggle. No Democrat since Randall
and Carlisle has led his party in the
House with the dexterity and tact
which Mr.. Williams has so far exhibi-
ted.' That is high tribute from a
Republican newspaper to Demoratic
leader and is signi6ant Of the better
temper Of politicians and political Or
gans in this day and generation. Time
was when the New York Tribune would
have thought of praising Judas Iscar-
lot as soon as it would have thought
of praising a leading Southern Demo
crat.-Richmond Times-Dispatch.
