They are representative, and the result shows some Interesting ths sscst significant being that who bolted Bryan la 1000 are coming back to Barker, and that laboring men show a growing fa voritism toward Watson and Debt. People in all the walks of life were ■sen. Wall street sentiment was test ed by means of a oanvaas of tbe Broad Biebange building. On Sunday porters saw members of the Central Federated Union at theii meeting. Saturday afternoon 400 persons cross ing Brooklyn Bridge gave their choice for President, and Monday at tbe noon boar a canvas was made of the em ployse of the Uneeda Biscuit factory .

Effort was made to get the vote of 1000 aod the contemplated changes, In the Broad Exchange Building Judge Parker makes heavy inroadis Into the McKinley oolnmn of 1900 The same Is true as to the voters who Ashy cross the Bridge. Among the la boring people Parker does not com mand tiie -fell Bryan strength, bat Boorerelt does not reap a correspond log advantage.

H'a mother’s father was a professor In Franklin college la Georgia and after oeing taught by private Inst rectos he entered the Presbyterian Theologies seminary at Columbia, where be grad uated In 1874. He taught school in Co lumbia for some time and In 1875 be became tbe correspondent to The News end Cour.er, serving this pap* r until 1879, when he went to Washing ton as its correspondent. He continu ed to act in this capacity until 1881 when he went to Charleston to accept a position on tbe staff. He was tbe author of “An Appeal to Pharaoh,” an argument for deport? ation of negroes to Africa which at- attaoted much attention and uhicb first appeared anonymously and 1 attributed to Henry W. Grady and others. It was warmly commended by tbe late Sir Henry M. Stanly In a personal letter to tbe author. Some of his poems have been widely quoted. He was a distant relative of the late. President McKinley. Mr. McKinley married Elizabeth H. Bryce, daughter f Campbell R. Bryce of Columbia, May 18, 1876, who with three sons and one daughter survive him. Justice Pope, after a few mio- utes thought, Instructed the attorney general to prepare an order fixing Wednesday, August 31, at 4 p. m., as tbs day and hour for final hearing and remanding Butler Holt to jalHu New berry county until that time. Ths attorneys for the defense made no further objection and the order was drawn and feigned. F. H. Mi Master. DIH0CA4TS COVFIDIKT. CONFEDERATE SOLDIERS. Da Mac Have to Pay License Fees to Carry on Bnasineaa. « saeri On account of tbe many inquiries which the comptroller general has xe- cwved as to the recent law exempting Confederate soldiers from license taxed he has asked the attorney general for on opinion. Assistant Attorney Gener al W. H. Townsend Tuesday sent tbe following opinion to Mr. Jones: “Answering your Inquiry to the at torney general, I beg to say that In my opinion, the act to exempt Confed erate 1 soldiers and sailors from paying license fees'124 statutes 441) gives a personal prlviledge which cannot be transferred to others. The effect of this personal exemption 1$ the same as that of a person paying tbe license tax n question. If a person paying the loense tax could employ others to carry on the business under him, then the soldier or sailor exempted oonld do so likewise. This depends in eaeb case upon the terms of the statue or ordianoe Imposing the license tax.” The act is ss follows: “An act to exempt soldiers and sailors from paying license. “Section 1. That all soldiers and sailors of the Confederate States, who enlisted from this State and who were honorably discharged from such ser vice, shall hereafter be exempt frooi the charge of any license for the car Khd rvir g on of and business or proferelon within this State, or any city, town re village therein: Provided, That such soldiers and sailors shall file with tbe clerk of the court of the county In which he resides the proper evidence of his service In the Confederate war: Provided, further, That no partner ship shall exist in any such busloess or profession, with any person not a bona fide soldier «r sailor of the raid Con federate States. “Approved tbe 25th day of Febru ary, A.

Mr. Smith sp >ke in the borough of Queens in amwer to a speech of Secretary Shaw, made a short time before. The New York paper* were enthusiastic over Mr. Smith* presentation of t ie Demo cratic idea, and such leading papers as tie Biuoklvu E gle, New York World, New York Tunes aud others editorially approved Lis speech. Mr. Smith vlilted Judge Parker, whom be has long known intimately, and says that tbe judge is In the ber, of health and spirits and feels confident that (4he peep’s of tbe country c inuot fall to endoiae the sensible, char, and constitution*! plab.o.m set forth by the Democracy. Mr. Smith Is very jubilant over Democratic prospects, and among tbe encouraging things he says: “Judge Parker Is receiving loads of letters every day from Republicans voluntarily proffering their support. They say that they desire to le .urn to a government of the fathers, a government administered In accor dance with tbe law of tbe land and tbe oonetitution.” Speaking of New Jersey Mr. Smith says that the Democratic managers are onfident of tbelr ability to carry it for Parker ai d Dav.'a. Mr. Smith tilked with Chairman Taggart aod la certain of Mr, Tag gart's ability to carry Indiana. Mr. Taggart says if he don’t carry Indiana he will quit poiltlca forever. Mr. Smith feels more 10 fi lent el out tbe result than he baa since 1602, and says. * “If we drn't win this lime I am tbe worse fooled man In the world. The conditions are very almllar to thoee of 1892, and all the regular Democrata of the country aa well as the Independents are against Roose velt. The independent press la unani mous for Parker; the independent vot ers are all for Parker; tbe happily re united Democracy is a unit for Par ker; -Tammany Is enthusiastic fo Parker; and I cannot ace for him a possible defeat." A LETTER FROM RU8KIN. How He Would Have Nettled tbe MM Wee DleaDDolnted. In the baby i EbtIb American Slave question. It is sometimes Interesting to hark back a few decades and bring back some of tbe forgotten episodes of the great War Between toe States. The recently published letters of John Ruskln, tbe great Eaglish writer and tritle, reveal some of his Ideas about the gigantic struggle that was going on this side tbe water. The letters were written to Charles Elliott Norton of Boston and the following la a good sample: ■ “The mleerablest idiocy of the whole has been yonr mixing up & fight for dominion (the most insolent and tryannloai, and tbe worse conducted, in all history) with a sol distant fight for liberty. If you want the slaves to be freer let ttastr masters go free first, In God’s name. If they don’t like to be governed by you, let them govern tbemselyee. Then, treating them as e stranger State, If you like to say, 'You shall let that black fellow go or' —etc., aa a brave boy would fight' another for a fag at Eton—do so; but yon know perfectly well no fight could be got up on thoee terms; and that this fight Is partly, for money, partly (as those wretched Irish whom you have inveighed into it show) for wild anarchy and tbe devil* cause and crown everywhere. As for your pre cious proclamation (emancipation)— ‘A gift of that which is not to be given “ - By til the assembled powers of earth and heaven.’ "if I had It there—there’s a flue north wind blowing, and I would give.it. to tbf first boy I met to fly It at his kite’s tall.” This was written In 1863, and while tbe issues of that day are now almost ancient history It la interesting to southern people to recall bow one of he moat eminnet English scholars and thinkers regarded the position taken >> tbe north, and what he thought of he proclamation of emanelpstion. Thera were many great men In Eog- rho thought as Ruskln did, though they did not at all times ex- press themselves In such plain lan^ uage. •> y- OP \Af '4, CLINTON, BOARD, ROOM-RENT and TUITION for Collegiate Ye*r fat 1117.50.

At Newport, R. 1., It became known Wednesday that while the submarine boat Shark wee being prepared for a submerged ran near Bretoo* Reef .lightship! Monday afternoon, she sank to the bottom In a hundred feet of water and remained then for aoae time before tbe crew could move her. After forty minutes tbe crew succeed ed by the use of hand pumps, In bring ing her to the Bttrffece. The boat apparently was not damaged. Frank James, ex Confederate, ex bandit and lifelong Democrat, says the New York World, at Indepen- deooe.-Mo., in hia address to the sur viving members of Quantrell* band of brush fighters, exploded a political bomb which all but disrupted tbe meeting. Not only did the bandit renonuoe allegiance to the Demo cratic party, but to bis own native state as well, which was considered by tbe war-acarred veterans as little less than treason. — Had not some pf his friends forcibly poshed him from the crowd, the. court bouse yard in tbe Independence might have been the scene of a conflict re calling border days. It has been known among his friends that since the Missouri legisla ture four years ago refused to elect James door-keeper of tbe lower hou*e be has been sore oxer the defeat. Holding hia hands above bis heal Wednesday, he shouted to tbe bid- time Quantrell fellowers: “1 nave been in Ohio, Pennsylvania aod other states we had learned to hate because they gave birth to tbe Federal troops we hated so well, and tbelr people have treated me like a man. But here In Missouri, among my own people I am unhonored. ~ “Then why should I net turn to the belief of the people who have In my declining years proved my friends. I am an ex-Oonfederats and an ex- guerilla, boys, but I am no longer a Democrat. This year I vote the straight Republican ticket from Roosevelt down the line, the same as the people will vote It who have been my friends In Ohio, Pennsylvania and other states."— So deep was the Itodnd that James Inflicted on the veterans that when the old followers of Quantrell held their annaul election of officers later, they refused to honor the ex-bandit with the title of captain.
