The things that Theodore Roosevelt
says are not so much calculated to iDjure
business as to wound the vanity of lot
of money hogs who have no concern for
the country or the race, says the Punxy
Spirit As, for instance, statements like
this: "There is not in the world more
ignoble character than the mere money

duty, regardless of every principle, bent
only on amassing fortune and putting
his fortune only to the basest uses
whether these uses be TO speculate in
stocks and wreck railroads himself, or to
allow his son to lead life OF foolish and
expensive idleness and gross debauchery,
or to purchase some scoundrel of high
posIiion, foreign or native, for his

AS USUAL, the political Prohibitionists
in Maine had ticket in the field to help
defeat the Republicans, who gave them
the prohibition law there, thus making it
possible for the Democrats to take the
first steps toward undoing the work of
the psst.-Franklin News. Alas, how
oft has this been the case. Complete
prohibition is not what the professional
prohibitionist wants. 1t ruins his busi-
ness.

SOME nervous editors are asserting that
Roosevelt is building a way by which he
can again enter active politics, losing
sight of the fact that he will be almost
forced to flee again to African Jungles to
keep his myriads of friends from forcing
him into politics of the most active sort
that of again becoming President of the
Uuited States.

LIGHTNING AT CHURCH HILL
Town Underwent Veritable Electrical
BOmbardment Sunday, July 10

Town Underwent Veritable Electrical
Bombardment Sunday, July 10
The little village of Church Hill
passed through veritable lightning
bombardment Sunday afternoon, July
10, about six o'clock, four separate
and distinct places within a radius
of 250 yards being struck by the
fiery bolts. The first place struck
was the belfry of the Academy build
ing. The damage here was slight,
ard repairs can be made for about
S25. The bolt after striking the
belfry passed into the inside of the
school with its usual assortment of
pranks, such as the driving of splint-
ers into the walls, upsetting desks,
etc. A tree in the yard of Mrs.
Mary c. Walls, about so yards from
the school house. was the next
victim and a few seconds after
third bolt crashed into the stable of
c. E. Smith, on New Street. The
damage here was slight also. A tree
in front of Mr.. Smiths house was
badly splintered a few minutes after.
Although no one was injured, it was
barely short of a miracle, as many
severe flashes of lightning came
which either grounded or otherwise
passed off without harming life or
property. The storm seemed to have
centered directly over the town and
the oldest residents were treated to
the worst electrical storm of their
lives.

GEORGETOWN FUGITIVE ENDS
ALL BY TAKING HIS LIFE
W. j. TURPiN CHARGED WITH
MURDER DRINKS CAROBLIC ACID
One of the Crowd Who Broke Jail Re-
Gently Took His Own Life Rather
Than Be Recaptured

Eluding the entire force of State
authorities and numerous organized
posses, William J. Turpin, the negro
murderer, who with four other prison
ers, made a sensational escape from
the county Jail at Georgetown, on
Sunday morning, returned TO Seaford
and ended his life there early Thurs
day m orning, by drinking carbolic
acid. Turpin, who was being held
in the prison to await trial for the
murder of Joseph Elliott, a Seaford
negro, was a notorious gambler and
"speakeasy" operator, who, it is
said, was wanted in South Carolina
for string of crimes, including
murder. Turpin came to Seaford
about two years ago and Immediate
ly engaged in running gambling dens
and "speakeasies. - He was ar
rested several times on various
charges but always managed to es-
cape punishment. 1t was very evident
that he would have been arrested
many more times had not residents
known of his desperate character and
feared he would be freed and kill
them. Constable Curtis j. Steen,
with his brother, made the arrest.
Just as they entered the house where
Turpin was lodged he dropped an
empty pint bottle and told them he
had taken carbolic acid. He told
the officer he was tired of living and
did not want to be hanged as a
murderer and was glad he could end
it all with poison brought him by
his sweetheart. Physicians were
summoned to the scene but were
GOO late to do any good and the des-
perate criminal died in fearful agony
a short time later.

WOMAN SUFFRAGE IN IDAHO
United States Senator Borah Says it is
Not Universal Panacea
NE more enthusiatic advo


The more enthusiastic advocates of
woman suffrage seem to claim that
when women shall have been given
the right to vote, most, if not all the
evils of politics will speedily disap-
pear, says William E. Borah, United
States Senator from Idaho in The
Delineator for August. The more
earnest and distressed opponents of
woman suffrage, on the other hand,
insist that to extend the right of
suffrage to woman, and thus beguile
her into politics, would demOralize the
home, give US coarse aud mannish
women, and perhaps disturb domestic
tranquility, besides many minor evils
follow. AS usual, the truth is to be
found in the temperate zone which
lies broad and tranquil between the
extremes.
Woman suffrage will not eradicate
all the evils of politics or guard
wholly against all mistakes of gov
ernment, but it will tend in that di-
rection. Whatever is accomplished
will be for the good and not the bad
in politics. 1t will not make women
less refined or less womanly. In
fact, l think a seasonable "mud
bath" of politics would perhaps have
a cleansing and elevating influence
upon the social cafe life which pre-
walls to such an extent in some of our
social centers.
Idaho extended to her women the
right to vote in the early days of
her Statehood. We do not become at
all excited over the effect of woman
suffrage in our State. But we do
declare it to be our deliberate judg-
ment that her presence in politics,
armed with the power to enforce her
demand has been substantially aud
distinctively for the benefit of politics
and of society. 1t has aided mater
iallv in the securing of better laws
along particular lines; especially
has it tended to cleaner politics in
particular and essential matters.
Our women have not always been so
active in politics as they should be,
but it has been observed that when
moral question is up for considera-
tiOn, the majority vote of the women
has been power upon the right side.

"WHITE man HAS
GAINED VICTORY"
President TveitmOe of Exclusion
League Praises Ruling Of
Commissioner

1.-The white man has won a decided
victory and the contention of theNbuild-
ing trades and the labor council of
federal department of commerce and
labor in Commissioner General D. j.
Keefe's overruling of Hart North's
declaration that Hindus might land at
this port" said President O. A. Tveit-
moe of the Asiatic exclusion league
yesterday.
The Manchuria deported yesterday
the 35 East Indians whom North had
admitted to California soil contrary to
the law, and the laboring men of the
state have scored a notable advance
in the stand taken by the chief of the
bureau. North's conduct in this matter
will be rigidly looked into. Our com
mittee, consisting of three men from
the labor council and three from the
building trades, will inquire under
what guise this encroachment on de=
cent white labor by railroad companies
and railway contractors has been
furthered. Norths actions in the mat
ter will have to be explained.
THE Calls exclusive account of the
beginning of this matter sounded the
alarm. and we propose to ferret out
the intricacies of the combination
which has been working to deluge our
state with this Hindu horde. These
men are not able bodied laborers, yet
they are landed here with no place to
go and with no means of support They
are worked for 80 cents or a dollar a
day as long as they can stand up under
it, and then are turned loose by the
companies that exploit them TO become
a public charge.
Commissioner Keefe's ruling is en-
phatic notice that we don't want that
kind of men here to degrade labor and
to sap the character OF our future
population. These poor devils will
never make American citizens. They
have been brought here for no other
purpose than to furnish cheap labor
and to create pauper conditions for
labor, and we now have the strong arm
of the federal government raised to
keep back the invasion"

BEATS BOTH ENDS
And The Middle
Schwerin Occupies Suite Paid
for by Keith Spalding, but
Refuses to Refund

Los ANGELES, April ga moot
point in law affecting the rights of
steamship companies will be passed
upon in a suit for $612 filed in the SUI
perior court today by Keith Spalding
of Point Iona, Cal, son of A. G. Spald-
ing, the sporting goods manufacturer
against the Pacific Mail steamship COM
pany.
Spalding engaged passage from San
Francisco to Hongkong on the steam
ship Korea, with the Exclusive right
to occupy suite G and H and stateroom
No. IA for the trip beginning August
5 last year Before the date of sailing
he changed his plans and returned his
tickets to the company, which, he al
leges. promised to reimburse him if the
tickets could be resold. The company
afterward refused to give back his
$612
1t Is alleged in the complaint that
General Manager r. P. Schwerin of the
steamship line occupied the quarters
reserved for Spaldfng. The latter con-
tends that in having utilized the suite
and stateroom the company rendered
itself liable to the recovery of the sum
he paid for accommodations.
