ere was a great and important gath
r. of Democrats in New York last
fr. It was the quadrennial conventio u
:e National Association of Democratic
Is, and it brought together the flower
10 Democracy. ^Nearly 2,500 dele
t, representing organized bands of j
ocrats in all pasts of the country,
there, and besides hearing words of
om from party leaders they profited
~ ,~ferences winch will enable them
tarn to their bom es better equipped
than ever to carry on tbe campaign to
victory. The convention was of impor?
tance and value, because it brought
together young and enthusiastic men
from nearly all the States and Territories.
They exchanged ideas and learned much
of the way in which tho campaign is
being carried forward in New York.
Tbe delegates were given to understand
plainly that the Democrats of New York
were united and earnest in their support
of the Democratic candidates and princi?
ples and this assurance they will carry
back to the people they came on to rep?
resent. Grover Cleveland addressed the
convention. The very sight of the candi?
date as he came into the Academy of
Music filled the delegates with enthusi?
asm. All of the party leaders were
warmly welcomed, but the greeting given
to Mr. Cleveland was an ovation. From
the time he walked upon the stage until
after he had concluded his speech and
left every mention of his name and his
every ntteranco was applauded and
cheered, so much so that at one time be
found it necessary to remind tbe dele?
gates that they were there for business.
SOLID, AS USUAL.
Last week Florida rolled up a Demo?
cratic majority of nearly 25,000 for the
party.
On last Wednesday Georgia Democrats
voted and voted until their candidates
had received a majority of more than
70,000.
Maj. J. C. C. Black will likely beat
Tom Watson in the 10th Georgia District
by over 1,500 votes.
In both States the Third Party strength
was insignificant. Tbe Democracy arose
in its strength and Republican and Third
Party combinations were beaten over?
whelmingly and grandly.
We congratulate both States on their
splendid records and especially the 10th
Georgia District on the prospect of getting
rid of the pestiferous Watson.
The ides of November will find tbe
South as solidly Democratic as ever, and
coming elections will likely find her as
firm in the Democratic faith and as solid
in the Demooratio oolumn as now.
A SIGN OF THE TIMES.
I Jadgo Walter Q, Gresham, of Illinois,
hitherto a staunch Republican and a
\ formidable candidate for the presidential
nomination before tbe Republican Con?
vention in 1888, has deolored bis inten?
tion of voting for Grover Cleveland. He
believes that the Demooratio party is the
people's party, and his better nature has
revolted at the corruption and venality
of the Republican [ arty.
Wayne MoVeagh, of Philadelphia, who
was President Garfield's Attorney Gen?
eral, and therefore an influential Repub?
lican, has seen the error of his way and
has come into the Democratic fold. He
has written a letter setting forth the
reasons for his change of opinion, the
two main ones being bis opposition to
the iniquitous McKinley high tariff bill
and the force bill. He thus closes bin
admirable letter:
"As I believe, for the reasons I have
given, that the true welfare of the coun?
try would be promoted by Mr. Cleve?
land's eieotion, it is my duty to vote for
him, and as I recall tbe capacity, tbe
fidelity and the courage with which be
has heretofore discharged every public
trust committed to bim, the duty be?
comes a pleasure."
Judge Cooley, an influential Republi?
can, of Michigan, has deserted tbe sink?
ing ship and will cast bis ballot in No?
vember for Grover Cleveland.
Judge Columbus B. Harrod, of Indi?
ana, a strong Republican, will vote tbe
Demooratio ticket next month because of
the Republican party's position on the
tariff.
These changes promise well for the
Democracy. It is an encouraging sign
in the political sky. The wonder is that
it has taken these intelligent gentlemen
so long to find the right party.
How to Make Corn.
From the Newbcrry Observer.
Mb. Editor :?I have been requested
by quite a nnmber of persons to make a
statement of corn raised on my brag
patch of one acre.
I made 751 bushels, costing me 31 cents
per bushel after paying all expenses, as
follows:
Hoeing.$ 1 05
Manure. 3 15
Plowing. 2 10
Feed for Mule.. 1 25
Pulling Fodder. 2 15
Gathering Crop. 90
Seed Corn. 25
Interest on land and mule, taxes,
wear of gears and plows for one
year. 9 05
Total.$20 50
By shucks and fodder.18 00
Net expense.? 2 50
If I could get the old prices once paid
for shucks and fodder and if I lived in
the country, where land and labor are
cheaper and taxes less, I could make it
pay all expenses.
I have my manure made now for
another crop and will make enough to go
over all my farm.
Any farmer who has ten acres in wood
land has a phosphate mine if he is not too
lazy to work it.
I cannot bring the soil of Texas here,
and if I should ever go to tho old red
bills of Georgia, I shall always improve
the soil, and not kill man and beast in
cultivating land six by six feet for one
little ear of corn.

White Caps in Lexington.
Mr. Cal Caugtnan of Lexington County
was in the city yesterday and reports that
County as very much excited over a
series of whippings administered to
Prominent and influential -white men.
'hursday night three white men of prom?
inence and possessing considerable prop?
erty were taken from their homes and
severely lashed with trace chains. The
two nights previous eight men were given
a like dose, and others are in deadly fear
that they will be whipped.
There are about twenty in tbe gang, I
and it is said that nearly every member
is known to be such. There is little
attempt made to conceal their identity.
They consider that they have a mission
to perform, and are going at it in earnest.
There are many men of prominence and
influence in the Dutch Fork?the Irmo
section-who are living in undue inti?
macy -with negro women. These men
have determined that this must stop.
They bold meetings and select the men
they will "reform." He is addressed a
note ordering bim to discontinue bis
practices. If he does not instantly com?
ply the ?Vhito Caps visit his house at
right and take him into the woods and
administer a severe flogging. In some
cases tbe men have been blistered from
head to foot and are confined to their
rooms from the effects.
This gang of regulators have been duly
organized for some months and have
whipped a large number of white men
and negroes for offenses they believe
needed correction.
They claim that the law only reaches
the poor and lowly, and that the grand
juries fail to indict the wealthy offenders.
Thus they have taken the matter into
their own hands.?Columbia Register.
No Third Party in this State.
New Yobk, Oct. 7.?In an interview
with a New York limes reporter, Gover?
nor Till m an of South Carolina says: The
present statutes in South Carolina is about
au follows: There is some Third Party
sentiment in the State, as there is in every
S ;ate where tho Farmers' Alliance has
disseminated its peculiar ideas, and the
Third Party is strong in some counties.
There is some feeling, a sort of hopeless
feeling of resentment, at the other end of
the line, among the Haskoll faction?
among the old ring?but from present
appearances there will be scarcely any
votes cost for Weaver and the Third
Party national ticket. There is absolute?
ly no Third Party organization in the
State. Some of tbe Haskellites will
probably signify their displeasure by
remaining away from the polls in No?
vember.
The large bulk of both Democratic fac?
tions, however, will vote the straight
Democratic ticket. The Tillma nites will
eat Cleveland crow and the Sheppardites
will eat Tillman crow and the goose will
bang high. i
Desperadoes Bite tbe Dnst,
Parsons, Kansas, Octi 5.?This morn?
ing, shortly after the First National
Bank of Coffoyville opened its doors, five
mounted men drew up before tho bank,
and three of them entered, and, with
drawn revolvers ordered the cashier to
hand over the money in tho safe and
vault. The cashier drew a revolver and
fired at the robbers.
A number of citizens were attracted by
tbe unusual sight of five mounted men in
front of the bank, and when the sound of
the revolver shots was heard they rushed
to the bank, and a general fusilade fol?
lowed.
The robbers retreated from tho bank
and attempted to gain their horses, at the
same time firing their revolvers at tho
citizens who were attempting to kill or
capture tbem.
In the fight several citizens are reported
to have been killed, and four of the rob?
bers were captured. Two of the latter
aro mortally wounded. They are mom
bers of the famous Dalton gang.
Later reports state that four of the gang
were killed and fatally wounded. Three
citizens were also killed ; two fatally and
one seriously wounded. Tho names of
the killed and wounded are Bob and
Grant Dalton, Tom Heddy and an un?
known man. Emmet Dalton is fatally
wounded in his right lung. The names
j of the citizens killed are City Marshal C.
i T. Conley, Charles Brown and George
! Cubine. Cashier Thomas G. Ayer of tho
First National Bank, Lucas Baldwin,
Thomas Reynolds and Alfred Diet aro
seriously wounded.
It appears that the robbers entered the
village at 9:30 o'clock this morning, and
separated, two of them going to Condon's
Bank and four going to tbe First Na?
tional. At Condon's Bank the men wero
] told by the cashier that the safe was lock?
ed by a time lock and could not be open?
ed until 10 o'clock. They covered him
with Winchesters, and told bim tbey
would wait.
In tbe meantime tbe other quartette
went into the First National Bonk and
ordered Cashier Ayers to hand over the
money in the vault. At first he refused
and attempted to reach his revolver.
One of tbe gang fired a shot at him. He
then banded what money was in tbe
safe, and after placing it in a bag the gang
left and tried to rejoin their confederates.
Tbe alarm had been given and citizens
quickly gathered and attempted to cap?
ture the robbers, who were immediately
recognized as members of the Dalton
gang. The robbers fireel at the crowd of
citizens and tbe shots were returned with
effect. Tbe fighting became general and
bullets flew thick and fast.
When the smoke of battle cleared away
four of the Dalton gang were lying dead
on the ground and three citizens were
also killed. Two of tbe robbers were
wounded and three citizens had received
serious bullet wounds.
One of the gang succeeded in escaping,
but a mounted posse is in pursuit, and it
is certain that be will be captured, and in
all probability will dangle from tbe end
of a hasty improvised noose.
Tbe greatest excitement exists, and it
may be tbat the wounded members of
the gang will also be lynched.
Who'll Get the Flams.
The coming session of the Legislature
is already beginning to attract tho atten?
tion of the politicians, now that all other
political food has been taken away for
the present, and the Third party skeleton
is successful !?*. still keeping in tbe back
ground, perhaps for the purpose of as?
tonishing the natives at the last moment
by "busting a cap."
Tbat the next session is to be a lively
and interesting one there is ho doubt.
The principal thing that is creating in?
terest just now is the offices that have
to be filled at this term. There 1b a con?
siderable amount of lively "hustling"
being done by those who are after these
offices, and their friends are kept circu?
lating among the newly elected mem?
bers,
Tbe only circuit judge whose term ex?
pires this year is Judge Kersbaw, and
ibis will cause one of the prinoiple fights.
General Kersbaw will be a candidate for
re-election and he will be opposed by
Ernest Gary, of Edgefield. There may
be other candidates for this office to
appear in tb.9 field as the time draws
near.
Ira B. Jones will doubtless be re-elec?
ted Speaker of tbe House of Representa?
tives, no opposition having as yet been
indicated.
AS already stated all tbe present mem?
bers of tbe Railroad Commission will be
candidates for re-election together with
several individuals who are desirous of
getting a share of the spoils.
There are already six candidates in the
field for the Superintendency of the Pen?
itentiary: Capt. Jarnegan, W. A. Neal,
N. W. Brooker, and others. Neal is said
to be at this time in the lead.
Still another scramble will be for the
positions on the board of penitentiary di?
rectors.
The offices about tbo legislative balls
will be eagerly sought for this session
also, and some changes will likely be
made. At any rate the entire corps of
clerks, etc., will bo reorganised, this
being a new Legislature.
As to measures, the coming Legisla?
ture will have to wrestle with the county
government bill again, but the main
question that will worry them will be tho
Snrohibition matter. That will be the
feature of the coming session, and there
is to be a huge battle in tbe Legislative
halls.?Columbia Stale.
A Minister Killed.
Rev. J. T. Crocker, a minister of the
M. E. Church South, was killed on a pri?
vate railroad crossing near JameBtown
by the South bound vestibule train.
He had just I itched, up and was start?
ing for Greensboro. Tbe crossing is not
more than 200 or 250 yards from the
house, and is approached by a road run?
ning along by the side of the railroad,
being down bill, with a fence on one side
and a deep cut on the other. The only
egress is across the track ; there is not
sufficient room turn around or drive to
one side. Mr. Crocker of course did not
hear tbe cars approaching until after be
had come out by the side of the track,
when bis horse became frightened and
..-an away, crossing the track just as the
train reached there. The pilot of the en
jine bit the buggy squarely in tbe mid?
dle and threw Mr. Crocker up on tbe en?
gine together with the fragments of the
buggy, and carried bis body nearly half
a m?e before the train could be brought
to a stop, it being down grade for several
} miles near the scene.
His remains were carried to the resi?
dence of Dan. Moore at Jamestown. It
was found that his left arm and left leg
were broken, his cL0st crushed and brain
fractured. Death must have been in?
stantaneous. The horse was not hurt.
Mr. Crocker had charge of tbe circuit
comprising Jamestown, Friendship and
Muir's Chapel. He was a native of Ran?
dolph county, and lived for many years
in Asbeboro whero he practiced law,
which he abandoned for tbe ministry,
where be was doing good service. He
leaves a wife and several children.? Win?

Death From a Knock-Oat,
Memphis, Oct. 9.?Diok Nolan, a light?
weight prize fighter from Birmingham,
Ala., died to-night from the result of a
knock-out in a fight with Jack Davis,
before tbe Young Men's Athletic club in
this city Saturday night. Death was
caused by concussion of tbe brain, and
came twenty-four hours after Davis gave
bim the blow tbat sent bim to tbe floor
like a log.
Nolan fought at 121 pounds, and was a
much stronger man than bis opponent,
who is now behind the bars charged with
murder. Tho result of tho mill has cre?
ated a great sensation in Memphis, for
the Athletic club is a huge organization,
owning a seven story club bouse, and
the fight was the first professional one it
had given.
No publicity was given to the fight,
and hundreds of prominent men and
officials saw it. Mr. W. Williams, a big
cotton buyer, was referee at the mill,
Mike Conley, tbe Ithaca giant, and Bob
Lee, a prominent saloonist, were Davis's
seconds.
Lee was arrested to-night, but released
on $2,500 bond. Other of the interested
parties are getting under cover, and there
is a nervous feeling in the club circle, for
fear Judge Duboso, who is severe on
sports, may make some examples.
Dr. Porter, the millionaire banker, is
president of tbe club, although he did
not attoud the fight.
? A man who mot with shipwreck off
the coast of Cuba, and had to take to an
open boat, tolls of the peculiar hallucina?
tion, called by Bailors tho "Paradise
oraze," brought on ty exposure to the
torrifio heat of the sun's rayB. He says:
"The sea appeared to be transformed into
a mighty meadow, bright with flowers
and musical with songs of birds. Cool
springs burst from crystal rocks and
triokled over golden sands, and men and
maidens danced beneath the trees. They
seemed beckoning me to join thorn, and I
plunged over the side of the boat into
forty fathoms of brine. The bath brought
me to my senses, and I reached tbe Cu?
ban coasi more dead than alive. The
mania is of frequent occurrence in tropi?
cal seas and is ofton referred to by tho
poets." - '
Four and a Half Wanted.
New York. Oct. 7.?Governor Tillman
of South Carolina and W. T. C. Bates,
Treasurer of the State of South Carolina,
it is understood, are obtaining the views
of New York capitalists upon the ques?
tion of refunding the Stato debt, which
amounts to about $15,000,000.
In connection with tho visit of Gover?
nor Tillman and Treasurer Bates to this
city a well known authority of Southern
States' securities says: It is true that
the objecD of the Governor in coming
North is to arrange for tho refunding of
?5,442.019 of brown consol sixes of 1874
and $118,800 of green consols, both duo
July 1,1S93. I think the bonds can be
funded at 4i per cent, for thirty years,
provided tbo State would agree to apply
the revenue of the phosphate fields an a
sinking fund for their redemption. Of
course the syndicate advancing tho mon?
ey would cxaot the usual commission.
Tho syndicato would probably demand
that the State make some disposition of
the 80,000,000 of non-fundable sixos.
The sinking Fund Commission should
be composed of tho Governor, Treasurer
and tho proper Stato officials, together
with tho presidents of tho leading banks
of Charleston or Columbia and the presi?
dent of National Park bank of this city.
To Raid the Mountains.
Washixoton, D. C, Oct. 8.?Acting
Commissioner Wilson, of the intornal
revenue bureau, received a tolegram to?
day from Collector Munn, at Nashville,
stating that in tho fight with moonshiners
Deputy Caldwell was mortally wounded,
that Deputy Collector Nather was killed
instantly, and that Deputy Sparrior is
still alive, but is seriously wounded. He
also rooeived a telegram from Special
Agont Knisely, at Knoxvilie, saying that
ho will start at once for the e-ceno of
action for the purposo of executing the
instructions of the department for the
apprehension of the moonshiners con?
cerned in tho killing of revenue officors.
Acting Commissioner Wilson says that
the departmont is determined to punish
the porpetrators of the outrage, if possi?
ble, and to that end instructions have
been given Special Agent Chapman, of
the Georgia and Alabama district, and to
Special Agent Knisely, of the Tennessee
and Mississippi district, to place their
entire force at the disposal of Collector
Munn, of Nashville, in running down
tho moonshiners and socure their pun?
ishment.
The Battler's Deadly Bite.
Anniston, Ala., October 9.?Two chil?
dren of F. H. Asbmore, a farmer living
near Knucklesville, in Cleburne County,
met a horrible death yesterday morning
from the bite of a rattlesnake.
Tbo children, Albert, aged seven, and
Lucile, aged five, were playing in a piece
of woods near where their father and
older brothers wore picking cotton when
tbey overturned an old log, under which
the rattler was concealed.
As soon as it was disturbed the reptile
struck the little girl on the calf of the leg.
Her brother jumped to her rescue, and
tried to kill the snake, but before he suc?
ceeded in doing so was bitten twice him?
self. The wounded members immedi?
ately began swelling and tho children
called their father, who came and carried
them home. Some mixed household
remedies were applied, but in vain, and
in two hours from the time of the bites
both children were dead, the little boy
dying first.

Blot at a Negro fievlval.
Fulton, Mo., Oct. 4.?Three men were
killed, a woman fatally woundod and
several persons shot, but not mortally, at
a colored revival meeting at Stephens
Store, a small town twenty miles north?
west of here, Sunday evening. As soon
as the fracus was ended the participants
scattered, and it has been impossible to
secure particulars of tho "hooting.
Saturday a colored youth, Mike Turner,
whipped another colored boy. The lat?
ter swore vengeance, and Sunday after?
noon he entered tho meeting, and draw?
ing a revolver began to fire at Turner.
His first shot pierced the abdomen of a
colored woman named Keys and his
second shot mortally wounded her hus?
band. Several of the men present drew
their revolvers and took sides for and
against the boy who started the shooting.
Tho woman screamed and fled in all
directions, while the men were blazing
away at each other.
When tho smoke cleared away two
men were dead and several were wound?
od. Keys died yesterday, and Mrs. Keys
cannot live. It is learned that one of the
negroes was cut to pieces with a razor.
? It is becoming the fashion in Eng?
land to give domestic animals as wed?

married Queen Victoria, instead of tho
customary Indian shawl, sent her a beau?
