HARMONY BETWEEN FACTIONS.

The harmony Of the democratic fac
tons in Wisconsin has not been disturb
ed on the main issue since the Denver
convention The Rose. Ryan and Man
son factions are not in agreement on
anything except the candidacy Of Bryan
and Kern
I'VE have buried the Ratchet and the
gold democrats and the silver democrats
are of one mind on the national ticket
said T. r. Ryan. the Wisconsin member
of the national committee. wisconsin
| Is fighting ground, and we have an even
chance to carry the State for Bryan
Mayor Rose OF Milwaukee shares the
opinion expressed by Mr.. Ryan So does
also II. II. Manson. chairman of the
State committee.
! These democratic leaders are looking
! for big detection from Taft TO Bryan
on account Of the refusal of the republic
can national convention to accept the
La Toilette platform. While they have
not attempted to make a poll of the state
by counties and are unwilling to make
any figures on the result, they are con-
WINGED. they say. that the Denver plat
form will he attractive to thousands OF
republicans who think Ia Toilette didn't
get square deal in Chicago.
There is little doubt that many of the
ultra-La Toilette men in this State Will
vote for Bryan. but the republican leaders
do not think the detection will extend to
the rank and file of the party. Tafts
friends made a campaign In Wisconsin
for delegates last May. La Toilette was
supported as a home candidate. and nat
urally all of the anti-I.a Toilette men be-
came ardent boomers of the secretary or
war In every congressional district eX-
cept one La Toilette was successful.

SPEEDY JUSTICE.
Quick Work in the Trial of Con-
feSSed Fiend.

Committed assault Thursday, ar
rested and jailed Friday, indicted the
following Monday, tried, convicted
and sentenced TO be hanged Tuesday,
is the record established by the
Trazewell, Va, Circuit Court in the
case of the Commonwealth against
Walter Rippey, the convessed negro
rapist. Rippey was tried for assault
on Mrs. Mary Dancey. Mrs. Dancey
testified and in the course of her
story was several times overcome,
and the Court had to wait until she
regained her composure before pro-
ceeding. The recital was one of the
most narrowing in the annals of
crime in that section. The jury was
out short time and when the YER
dict was returned Rippey was SEN
fenced to hang on March 20.
The times and democrat. [volume] (Orangeburg, S.C.) 1881-current, 1908-02-21

ferred to him in my statements be-
fore the Investigating committee.
When 1 testified in June, 1906, Mr..
Lanahau had been advised Of my
having been subpoenaed and Of the
necessity of my testifying to my con-
versation with him if the Court de-
creed that I should do SO; further
more the attorneys representing MIR.
II. II. Evans had been advised be-
fore I testified of the purport Of my
testimony.
AS the intimacy between Mr.. Blease
and Mr.. Evans was well known, l
had presumed that it had been COM
municated to Mr.. Blease what my
testimony would be.
This precaution was confirmed in
my own mind by statements of Mr..
Blease to me. On the evening of my
testimony, whilst Mr.. Haynsworth
and l were supping together at
Wrigbt's Hotel, Mr.. Blease, who had
been taking supper at a table some
distance away, stopped at our table
moment, and after expressing his
approval of the position l had taken
with reference to testifying said IN
effect that he was familiar with all
the facts with regard to the employ
ment Of the party referred to by me
by Mr. Lanahan; that he had no
apologies to make to anyone for Vot-
ing to excuse me from giving the
name, but that in justice to the party
referred to he wanted to say that
that party had not understood fuliy
the service expected OF MIN when he
accepted the employment, and when
he did learn what was expected
he declined to serve furthr, and re-
ceived less than two hundred dollars
for his compensation.
! understood the statement OF MI
Blease to be diplomatic acknowl-
rdgemcnt Of his connection with the
matter, and. as, expressed in legal
terms, "a plea of confession ana
avoidance" Mr.. BleaSe now denies
that he had any connection WITH MI.
Lanahan.
I may add that I am advised by
Mr.. Wm. Elliott Of Columbia, VINO
was my attorney in the proceedings
before the Supreme Court, that Mr.
Blcase made to him practically the
same statement as made above.
In Justice to Mr. Blease himself,
and in Justice 10 the memory OF MT.
Lanahan. Mr.. Blcasc is now, II seems
TO ne. called upon TO say VINO WAS
the high state official, whom VII.
Lanahan had employed. as he mas
acknowledged full acqualntanccSAlp
i, thc matter Whilst / cannot con-
ccivn that | have been mistaken rs 10
statements made to me by Mr.. Lana
ham, still if there he error in what
Mr. Lanahan stated to ne, Mr.. B!ease
can clear it and shonld do so.
Respectfully,
Lewis A. Parker.

TRAIN RAN DOWN BUGGY.
Young Hlan Killed and Father and
Sister Seriously Injured.

Train No. 80, the Seaboard Air
Lines southbound Florida limited.
ran into a buggy containing Mr.. Jerry
NJ. Thomas, of Dentsville, AMI his
son and daughter, Tuesday morning
at about II o'clock, at Waddell, ten
miles north Of Columbia, the accl-
dent resulting in the instant death
of the young ian and the serious in
Jury Of the girl.
The vehicle was smashed to pieces
2nG the mule killed. Somehow the
father escaped with hurts not more
serious than minor contusiHns. The
accident occurred at q crossing Il
little above Wadd~ll where limited
trains run 1T a high speed.
The suDposition is that the proper
siznals were not given or that they
we're unheard. or else disregarded by
the occupants of the bugsy.

READS LIKE FICTION.
Left a Fortune of One Hundred
Thousand Dollars.

A story reading very much like q
tale in novel has developed at Alt
gusta, Ca, in which Mrs. Joe Roger
of Columbia County, has become
heiress to fortune of about SlOO,-
900.
About forty-five years ago her
brother, Col. Elisha Bates, went out
to the Santa Fe country and engaged
as a stage driver. He was pennlless'
hut boarded his little earnings until
eventually he became the operator
of the stage line, and later mace
other successful business ventures.
A short time ago Col. Bates dleo'
leaving an estate of 100000, 10
which Mrs. Roger, now a resident
of the Columbia County, is helress.
The times and democrat. [volume] (Orangeburg, S.C.) 1881-current, 1908-02-21

the conspiracy between him and his
! sci will answer to those people for
Greenville allies and newspaper cor
respondent He will not only an
swer politically, but he will also an
swer to me as man, face to face,
be he governor or be he what he
may"
Senator Blease here read an affi-
davit from Sam J. Lanahan saying
that he never told Lewis W. Parker
or any other person that Cole L.
Blease was in his employ to look
after his interest in the whiskey busi-
ness in South Carolina; and as mat
ter of fact he did not have Cole L.
Blease so employed.
"Now, Mr. President, this affidav-
it was published in the summer Of
1906. Lanahan was then living and
Parker did not deny it, or attempt to
have Lanahan retract it. Now Lam
ahan is dead and cac net speak; and
the Greenville witness shows up.
Why? Because I hit Greenville's Pat
ton and am a candidate for governor
against Greenville's Ansel. Yes, sir,
that is my belief as to the reason.
If a man, Mr.. President, says-if
my good friend, the senator from
Richland says-that the senator from
Bamberg told him thus and so, and
if / go to the senator from Bamberg
and he says that the senator from
Richland is liar, what more can |
do? The fight is between them.
Equally so the fight in this case is
between Lanahan and Parker; and
why did Parker wait until Lanahan
was dead? l do not say that Parker
is liar, but Lanahan says that Par
ker is a liar. If Lanahan said that l
was his agent he lied; and If Par
ker saws that I was Lanahan's agent
he is liar"
Senator Blease then read affidavits
