Hon. Wyatt Aiken.
(Mill-Workers' WORLDLY


The Third Congressional District
has q mighty fine Congressman-in
fact, we are not missing a true state
ment very far If we should say that
he Is the best one in the State. Wyatt
Aiken is working Congressman, no
grass growing under his feet. He Is
one Of the most intelligent members
of the lower house, tactful and dis
Greet at all times.
He has done and Is now doing
more good for his district than any
man We could possibly send there.
BY his ,shrewd diplomacy he can get
more Republicans to vote for his bills
than any other Democrat, at the same
time not compromising his political
principles. During his five years in
Congress he has had the following
appropriations made for his district
Public buildings at Newberry,
$4,000; at Greenwood, 100000;
at Anderson, s7O,OOO.> He had not
less than thirty-two bills passed by
the last Congress-more than any
other member. How's that, citizens
Of the Third District? Surely you
are not going to remove this man
simply because another man wants
the job.
Mr.. Aiken made three rafting
good speeches during the last Con-
gress-one Of which was so good,
from the Democratic point of view,
that it has been copied in the Demo-
cratic Hand Book for national dstri-
button.
Say, you mill boys, turn out and
send your good Congressman bacn.
Stick to your old horse. A new one
might throw you.
Aiken is well on to the job He
will get better and better as he gets
more experience. We do not believe
you are going to let that good-heart-
ed, big-hearted boy get left.

that IL her churn is sour 1t will faint the

churn. In the stomach and digestive
and nutritive tracts are performed pro-
cesses which are almost exactly like the
churning OF butter. Ia 1t not apparent
then that II this stomach-churn is foul Il
makes foul all which is put into 1t?
The evil Of a foul stomach Is not alone
the bad taste In the mouth and the foul

fnation OF disease throughout the body.
DR.. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery
makes the sour and foul stomach sweet.
1t does for the stomach what the washing
and sun bath do for the churn-a bsolutely
removes every tainting or corrupting ele-
ment. In this way II cures blotcbes,
pimp'es, eruptions. scrofulous swellngs,
sores, or open eating ulcers and all
humors or diseases arising from bad blood.

dizzy attacks, gnawing or distress In stom-
ach, consiipated or irregular bowels, sour

PAYS PENALrY--UsUAL CRIME.
Negro Taken from Jail, Hanged and
Riddled with Bullets.

peTate HSnt WIN negro named Le-
ander A. Shaw, in her home. near
this city, to-day Mrs. Z. titan Davis
sustained cash across the throat,
was otherwise beaten and her baby
hurt In her struggles to resist the
attempts, OF Shaw to assault her.
When accosted by Shaw Mrs. Davis
secured revolver and ordered the
negro from the house.. He grasped
the weapon, and taking out his knife
drew the blade across her throat and
In escaping from the house struck the
baby.
Two hours later a deputy sheriff
captured Shaw after hard fight.
Mrs. Davis, although in a critical
condition, has identified Shaw. In
tense excitement prevails.
Meets Quick Death Penalty.
Pensacola, Fla, July 29.-Three
men dead and a score wounded, some
probably fatally, is the record of an
attempt tonight by mob to storm
the county Jail and take out the
negro, Leander Shaw, who to-day as
saulted Mrs. Titan Davis near here
The mob numbered probably 100
persons and gathered early, but there
was no apparent indication that the
crowd, which completely surrounded
the jail, contemplated making a rush
until some hours later.
hn
railroad iron was brought into play
by about a dozen men upon the iron
gate Of the jail yard. At the same
moment the entire mob seemed to
catch the spirit, and with yells and
curses dashed for the jail entrance
Some climbed over the tall iron
fence, while others hammered upon
the gate.
The sheriff and half dozen depu-
ties stood in windows upstairs with
drawn revolvers and riot rifles. The
sheriff pleaded with the mob, at the
same time telling them he would de-
fend the prisoner at the cost of every
life present. His words had no effect
and the moment the first blow was
struck on the gate a volley Of shots
flashed from the upper windows of
the Jail. This was answered by the
crowd, which poured volley after vol
ley into the jail windows, wounding
two deputies. The mob was mo-
mentarily driven back with many
wounded and one dead as result of
the deadly aim Of the sheriff and his
deputies.
At midnight the mob, which had
in the meantime been reinforced by
many residents of the surrounding
country, made another attack upon
the jail.
The sheriff and officers were over
powered by some Of the men who had
crept over the rear wall and covered
them with rifles and revolvers. 9th
ers broke down the cell door and
took Shaw out.
The negro was carried to the CEN
ter Of the pla a and hanged to an
electric light pole. after which fully
500 shots were fired into his body.
In this latter aght H. C. Kellum,
street car conductor, was killed
while two deputies and four or five
Of the mob were wounded.
At 1 o'clock this (Thursday) morn
ing everything Is quiet and the mob
has dispersed.

clare our firm-and abiding convic- tion in the principle that all forms of government, national, state and municipal, should always be admin istered for the benefit of all, and with special privileges to none. We pledge the citizens party of Tempe 1 to work increasingly for honest, i'm partial and economical administration of all municipal affairs. We recom- mend as follows: First, that all streets now graded and graveled be maintained in their present fine con- dition, and that the grading and graveling be extended to all other streets as rapidly as the finances of the town will warrant. Second, that all streets and alleys be at all times kept clean of weeds, brush and rub bish of every kind. Third, that the water mains be extended to all streets of the town as rapidly as the demand of the residents require and the finances of the system will per init. Fourth, that the incoming com mon council investigate and deter mine upon the propriety of installing complete municipal sewer system for Tempe. We believe. the present
  nomical in the administration of the affairs of the town. We demand that all taxable property within the corporate limits of Tempe be equit- ably assessed for municipal taxes, and to that end we recommend that the assessor shall hereafter make ac- tual assessments of all property as required by law, and that the prac- tice now in vogue of making up the tax roll from the tax roll of the preceding year be discontinued, and we further demand the prompt pas sage and strict enforcement of such necessary ordinances by the common council of Tempe as will effectually close all saloons and prohibit the sale or giving away of intoxicating H- quors in Tempe on Sunday
 Peoples Party.
 The peoples party in convention assembled does hereby resolve: That it stands for a good, clean, honest, efficient and energetic administration of the affairs of the city, conducted along business lines, conferring equal rights upon all and granting special privileges to none. That its financial policy which has kept the town on cash basis. kept the interest on its bonds paid promptly; given its peo- pie good. clean, well sprinkled. gray eled and well cared for streets, and permitted the building up of sink ing fund amounting to $65OO that is now loaned out, bearing interest, and secured by first mortgage on income bearing real estate, will be maintain ed and strengthened with a view of promptly meeting our bonded indebt-' edness for the water works as such bonds mature. That we endorse with unstinted praise the record made by the present. city officials who were elected by the peoples party at the last regular city election, and point with especial pride to the fact that during the past year every dollar of taxes levied against the real and personal property in the town was collected and turned into the city treasury. and that not penny or such taxes ever became delinquent, showing an efficiency of official ser vice probably without a parallel in the United States.

LOCAL POLITICS.
The Regular Bi-AnnuaI City Election
 Occurs Today.

This is the date of the regular bi-annual city election. It gives promise of being a very quiet af- fair. It happens this year that there has been little or no fight. Two tickets have of course been selected and both have adopted platforms. However. they are practically the same and differ in but one particu- lar. That one particular is the mat ter of Sunday closing, the citizens ticket being pledged to the closing of saloons on Sunday and no mention of the matter being made in the other platform. For the benefit of those who may have forgotten just what these two platforms are, since the time they were first published, both are herewith presented for the second time.
 Citizens Party.
