Eddy's Idea of Reoublicaoism.

We we're asked on the street this
week what republicanism and the
repu blican party stood for.
The-old settlers of this city, will
remember that in the fall of 1857
Hon. Sam Beeman. the fiery little
hunch back statesman from St.
Charles, Mimi, delivered a political
address in the building now occu-
pied by Hanson & Emerson as a
drug store. We were boy Of II
years and it was the first political
speech we ever listened to- A. man
from the audience inquired, "What
does Republicanism stand for?'''
With flashing eyes the orator re-
piled: ~. -.r-.:=.. -. ...~ ...y=
Republication stands for the
country's flag against all enemies
within and without; for absolute
equality of all persons before the
law; for the right of every legal
voter to cast his vote and have IL
counted if it takes every dollar in
the treasury and every able bodied
man.ins the nation to protect him in
thatright; for an equal distri button
Of the nations favors, and an equal
division of the nations burdens
among all its citizens; for, honesty
ii administration Of public affairs;
for rectitude and righteousness il
the performances Of public duties;
for right and justice; nothing more
and nothing leas."
In our Judgment this declaration
Of what Repub icanisn1 stands for
never has been and never can be i'm.
proved upon, and =if it stands for
nything else the sooner Republic.
anism becomes a rerniniscence the

Only Son Died

But fate had seen fit to take away
the boy. The latter, like so many
thousands of sons of the new south,
had responded valiantly to the call to
arms when the United States decided
to lift the tyrant's yoke from bleeding
Cuba, and enlisted, to fight for the
flag which his father, a generation
ago, fought against. The boy re-
turned; but he was not the chap who
left so gayly, animated by high pa
triotic fervor-shattered of limb and
with the deadly diseases of Cuban
and Philippine swamps consuming his
vitality he fingered with the old people
while and then passed to the realm
where the beat of drum and the sound
of bugle are never heard, and the
father, broken in spirit and weighted
with the infirmities of old age, was left
to bear an all too heavy burden.
The amount, 5000, sent by draft, he
wrote, represented the careful savings
of long period. 1t was too small
to be of any avail by itself, and acting
upon the advice of the mutual friend
who had told him of the handsome
profits made in western mining stocks,
the Virginia veteran sent it to Mr..
Robinson to be invested according to
the latter's discretion, and with the
fervently expressed hope that the re-
suit would be fortunate enough to
enable him to save his home, the last
bulwark between himself and the aims
house.

Last Shot in Mohawk

Mr.. Robinson promptly invested his
fellow Virginian's funds-"his long.
maybe, last shot'-in Mohawk min
ing stock, which had already been
largely placed with the Robinson COM
pany clientele at so cents per share
Mr.. Robinson had inside Information
regarding the value of the Mohaw<'s
property, and on that information
based confident expectations of the
stocks great appreciation AS the
world now knows, results have sur
passed all expectations. Under Mr.
Robinson's advice the Virginian clung
to his Mohawk stock until 1t reached
SIS on the San Francisco Mining Stock
exchange. then he sold his 400 shares
bringing him $500, or just $1,000 more
than he paid for them.
The 'long. maybe, last shot" had hit
the mark. The following excerpt from
letter received by Mr.. Robinson yes
terday made that gentleman feel as
good as though he, himself, had won
the Shot"
II do not know words warm enough
TO thank you for the honest and wise
manner with which you invested my
all I'm cash, my only possible resource
/ have been able to absolutely clear
my property from indebtedness and
have enough left not only to purchase
the adjoining land put the latter and
the old place into cultivation that /
am pretty sure will pay but also to

Large Sum Realized by Placing
5000 in Nevada Mining Stock
Story of Human Interest.
IL. n. Herald. NoU. rs, 1906,

How many absorbing human inter-
est stories lie behind the cold, COM
monplace quotations of the stock ex-
change, especially when those quota
tions mirror a market at flood tlde
What stories Of riffs i'm the clouds,
of uplifts from the depths Of despair
to the heights Of hope, of transitions
from the ruts and chuclxholes of Hard
Luck lane to the broad, smooth, shin
ing pave of Easy street. are hidden
in figures that signify ascents in mar
ket values of hundreds and thousands
of per cent within comparatively short
time!
What debts may be paid; what long
cherished plans may be at last exc
cuted; what hopes deferred so long
that the heart became sick may be
realized; what comforts and luxuries
may be bestowed upon loved ones
How immensely, indeed, how meal
culably the sum of human happiness
has been augmented out of stock prof
its that within month massed into
millions, as the profits in a long list
of Nevada mining stocks have of late.
Profits of 5000 Per Cent
In the last half year this list of
stocks has shown advances in actual
market values up to 5000 per cent, the
appreciation of the last three weeks
as shown by the transactions on the
San Francisco and Goldheld mining
stock exchanges, approximating in the
aggregate s7,OOO,OOO, the tumultuous
rise in values rivaling anything of the
kind occurring In the storied days of
the Comstock lode development.
If the princely profits could only be
followed to their respective recipients
and their significance CLEANED themes
fit for the pen of William Dean Howells
would be found in plenty.
One Of these themes cropped out yes
terday in the course of a conversation
with R. D. Robinson, president of the
R. d. Robinson Company of this city,
house heavily interested in Nevada
mining enterprises.
A Friend in Need
Early last spring Mr.. Robinson re-
ceived letter, accompanied by a draft
for 5000, from a small town in Virginia,
which, by the way, is Mr.. Robinson's
birthplace. The writer went into con-
siderable detail concerning his affairs,
excusing himself for thus trespassing
on a busy mans time by stating that
he had been advised to do just that
4 thing by a MUTUAL friend who had re-
Gently returned from California and
who, while in the Golden state, had
been much in Mr.. Robinson's COM
pany. He explained that he was one
of those who in early manhood had
followed the stars and bars oft to VIC
tory and at all times in honor, if,
ultimately, to defeat The vicissitudes
of war and the reconstruction period
had left him a fraction of a large
patrimony, a small plantation, a rem
nant of a great one on which he had
been born, and even that little pos
session had been mortgaged for $4,000,
an incumbrance so heavy that there
was absolutely no probability of it's
liquidation when due, which would be
about the last of this year. When the
mortgage was incurred, many years
ago, the writer was sanguine that with
the help of bright boy, then just
emerging into a lusty manhood, it
would be paid at maturity.

AFTER LYNCHERS
JUDGE DIsQUE DELIVERS SOUND
PATRIOTIC CHARGE.
Says He VIII Direct Every Grand Jury

Until Guilty PersOns
are Found.

Gadsden, Sept 17--{Special. i'm the
opening session of the Gadsden CITY
Court this morning, Judge j II. Disque.
the presiding Judge. ordered tho grand
jury to make1a rigid investigation or
the Bunk Richardson lynching which
took place February 18th OF this year.
He urged them to use every means
in their power to bring the guilty to

had exhausted every means in their
power to find the guilty parties. but
that they could not find one scintilla

The same jury were recalled later
to investigate homicides but were not
ordered to make another investigation
of the lynching. The present grand
jury Is composed of some of the best
citizens of the county, the foreman
being Thomas Ewing of the Ewing
Hardware Company of this city. and
is a man of the highest integrity.
The September term of the City
Court of Gadsden convened this morn
ing at 10 o'clock. After the usual for
r1alities Judge Disque delivered an
able and comprehensive charge as to
what duties and obligations devolved
upon the grand jury.
He first admonished them as to the
sacredness of the oath they had taken,
particula. stress being laid upon muir
der in particular. He said that'he be-
,lieved that the failure to bring the
perpetrators of lynching to Justice was
the cause of so much crime In this
county, as II had the tendency on the
part Of the Individual to take the law
in his own hands
He said that 1t was his intention
to instruct each succeeding grand jury
to investigate this lynching until the
guilty parties are apprehended.
He called attention to gambling and
asked that this, too, be thoroughly in
vestigated. Attention was called to the
recent primary election and asked that
