James It. Garfield, former secretary
of the interior, in a speech delivered
Monday night to the newly
formed Progressive Republican
organization of Cleveland set forth
the platform upon which the insurgent
element of the Republican party
will enter the fall campaign in
Ohio.
Mr. Garfield announced his acceptance
of the appellation of "insurgent.
" Mr. Garfield declared
that the nation stood today in a
critical situation so that confronting
the country v, as the problem w hether
the fight of the progressive was to
he carried to a successful Issue or
whether they were to surrender and
admit that government for and by
the people was a failure, lie said
in part:
Like the prodigal youth, we as a
nation, have wasted our resources,
sold our inheritance, acquired evil
habits, hut, fortunately, we have realised
the ueed of radical changes in
time to save ourselves.
"At the coming election we are to
choose between two great national
parties. The Democratic party, while
declaiming against special interest
has, whew in power allied itself with
i ii t v VI :i ii v el" ils leaders
liave been and are the recognized
je preventatives of special interests,
lu our stale the Democratic governor
failed to he on the people's side
in the fight tor phblic utilities and
the Democratic senators defeated
'that measure. In the recent Democratic
convention the 'progressive'
Democrats were ignored. I can see
no hope for better tilings from Democracy
as now conducted.
"Mow is it with the Republican
pafty? It likewise has among its
lenders some who are allied with, or
represent special interest; but, on
the other hand it lias progressive,
aggressive leaders who are the people's
representatives.
"The country owes a debt of
gratitude to the insurgents in Congress
who made the fight against the
domination of special interest and
who placed the common good high
above party regulation.
'"The real friends of conservation
relied upon insurgents and their
progressive allies for the protection
of the public domain against the assaults
of special interests.
-? .. .1
Insurgent senators pre v emeu
the passage of I he Alaska hill which
tfi its original form, might have given
over the ntitold wealth of Alaska
to a favored few.
Dealing in a general way with the
Rational problems and continued
his eulogy of the insurgents, Mr.
Garfield took up special state proh4eons.
The recall, regulation of corporations,
wok men compensation
act, the strengthening of child labor
laws and the development of a
canal system were t.he principal
planks in the platform which he put
forward.
.In regard to" the recall, Mr. Garfield
said:
"There is one method of dealing
with public service which demands
osf most earnest consideration,
namely, the recall. 1 believe it to
he the most direct, most efficient
way which people have of dealing
with t.he unfaithful servant. It is
said that the recall makes cowards
of public men. 1 ask whether it is
any more injiiiious to the public
welfare V> have nil officer afraid of
the people than to have a public officer
the servant of a special inter-1
est."
Mr. Garfield concluded his general
defense of the Republican party
with a warning against t.he reactionary.
"The real danger to the party,"
he said, "comes from the reaction
tt! y vvlio is controlled uy spcnm ?ncatise
il is the easiest wny, in willing
to return to the weak policy of
La if He? !?\?fre To follow such
leaders means disaster.

DEMOCRATIC PRINCIPLES. |
Some Things tliut the Party Has
Long Stood For.
Here are some of the Issues of the
coming campaign as outlined by Senator
Overman of North Carolina:
Down with Connonism! Down
with plutocracy! Down with unlawful
trusts and combines, chief beneilciarles
of tariff legislation, purchasers
of elections, debauchers of the
ballot. Down with those who would
1 Alexieu i/e t.ii., republic and destroy
i.beities of the people.
Hack to the slogan of IS7<>: retrenchment
and reform. Turn the
j rascals out. Clean out the Augean j
sin Dies. a now orooui sweeps tieau,
A tariff for revenue only, so adjusted
as to operate alike upon all
classes, all sections and all industlies.
The rights of the states shall not
he impaired.
The people shall rule.
Enforce the laws against the tinlawful
trusts. If it is right to indict
t.he hulls, who keep up the price
of cotton, indict tlie bears, whose
business it is as representatives of
English manufacturers to keep the
price down as low as possible.
The republican party, Senator Oberman
declared, would go into the ;
campaign not only badly discredited,
but badly divided. A revolution of
great import, he said, was going 011
in its strongholds.
The administration's record was
attacked by the senator, who declared
it had been one of bad faith, 1
broken promises and higher tariff.
The Payne-Aldrich law he referred to
as "the most iniquitous ever known
in the world's history," declaring 1
t.he public had been "buncoed" by
an upward revision.
Any dissension in the ranks of democracy
the senator minimized, declaring
that the Democrats might
differ on maters of detail or merely
moral policies, hut they were shoulder
to shoulder 011 the fundamental
princples of the party,
IMiAOKl) IN JAIL.
Chningntig Doss Charged With Mur
<ler of Prisoner.
Thursday afternoon W. H. Woodward.
superintendent of gang No. 2
of the Aiken county r.haingang, was
carried to Aiken and lodged in pail,
carried to Aiken and lodged in jail,
Mitchell, a convict, who died at the
camp several weeks ago. The warrant,
on which Woodward was arrested,
was sworn out by Anderson
High tower, father-in-law of James
Mitchell.
At the time of Mitchell's death the
jury of inquest rendered a verdict
to the effect that Ylitehell came to
his death from being compelled to
work while sick. The inquest was
not entirely satisfactory to all parties
concerned, and Coroner Johnson
reopened the inquest, and reempaneled
the jury, which rendered
the same verdict a second time.
Mitchell was sent to the gang for
a short term. After working a few 1
hours he is alleged to have been
whipped. After striking him a few
times, it is said, Mitchell told Mr.
Woodward that he was sick. This
was the first time Mr. Woodward
knew of his being sick, he states,
mill lw? iin 111 Mili?iti?lv Kent .him to the
campHe
remained too sick to work
that day, and the night following
Dr. W. S. Kubanks was sent for to
administer to him. That was Saturday
night, and he died about
o'clock Sunday morning. Mr. Woodward
is now in jail. He will be given
a preliminary hearing before a
magistrate shortly. *

VALUE OF COTTON CHOP.
Interesting Facts Presented by Gov.
eminent Keport.
Interesting facts for the farmers
are contained in a bulletin lately issued
by the Census Bureau ou the
value of the cotton crop of the past
year together with other valuable information
in connection with the
season's production.
T.he estimated value of the crop
of the year reached the sum of
$S 12,089,000 as compared with
$681,230,000 for the preceding year.
This difference in valuation was due
to the higher prices at which cotton
was sold and not to larger production.
The value increased IS.2 per
cent, w.hile the product, expressed in
bales declined 21.1 per cent.
Cotton, valuable as It was to the
Southern planter, was worth only
about half as much as the corn crop.
It was worth about $100,000,000
more than the wheat crop, and seme
$100,000,000 more than the production
of oats, leaving corn king among
agricultural products for the year.
Speaking of the value of the crop
to the individual, the bulletin says
the planter who received about $00 4
fcr twenty bales in 1 898 sold the
same number of bales last year for
$1,080, which means much in the
general progress and prosperity of
the South. The value of a bale of
cotton, including the seed, was $84.31
in 1909, as compared with $30.32
in 1 898. The lowest price for
cotton was recorded in 190S, when
the average for the year was 4.9,
compared with 13.29 cents in 1909.
The average between is about 1 1
cents, which was crossed in the year
1907.
It is pointed out that the production
of Sea Island cotton did not
change materially in 1909 as to the
amount proluced or the price. This
is grown only in a limited area, and
the bulletin makes a strong argument
in favor of increased acreage, so as
to compete more fully with t.he Egyptian
product. It is said that many
parts of the South are favorable to
the production of long-fiber cotton,
much of which sold last year at ;?u
cents to the pound. The bulletin
shows that the Southern planters
could inucrh improve their financial
condition by resort to raising Sea
Island cotton.
I>F.1?KM> ON Ol'It COTTON'
The Great Value of the Smith's Staple
to the Nation.
From official sources running back
to 1790, the Southern Commercial
Congress has correlated statistics
that show the dependence of the nation
upon cotton in maintaining the
credit of the United States in world
commerce.
The total value of all exports from
1 790 to J u ne 3 0 1909 was $-17,- '
991,224,405. The total balance in
the favor the United States during
this period has been $0,436,114,560.
The total value of raw coton exported
during the same time has been
$13,598,353,086. These figures are
for raw cotton alone and are low valuation.
They leave out of consideration
manufactured cotton and cot*
iinfc
inn tn;cu |/m/uuwio,
The purpose of the compilation
is to life cotton products out of consideration
as solely Southern interests
and give them their rightful
place as National; for without cotton
the nation would appear a debtor,
instead of a creditor, on the
world's balance sheet to the extent
of $7,000,000.

That the cotton bulls ha he won a
victory over Attorney General Wickersham
and that the latter withdrew
the indictments against them
.because .he has seen the error of
his way is the opinion of Senator K.
I). Smith. He points out the fact
that cotton has climbed a dollar a
bale in spite of the closing of mills,
I curtailment and all other bear influence.
He predicted that cotton
will continue to rise until the
prices in October would make the
present rates look cheap.

Continued llot Weather (,'ausrs Many
Deaths in Cities.
The torrid heat wave which nas
swept the country during the past
three weeks has been taking a heavy
toll of human life, especially in the
large cities, wJiere, in the crowded
tenement district, there is not a
breath of air from one week's end
to the other. New York, Philadelphia
and Washington, in the Kasl,
have been especially hard hit, and
the number of deaths is now close m
to the 100 mark.
The only refuge t.he people of
these cities have from the heat is
the parks, and these are literally I
crowded with humanity every hour '
of the twenty-four. And of these
the chief oasis in the desert of .heat
is Coney Island, near New York city.
Coney Island is now crowded day
and night, crowds averaang 15,000
persons sleeping on the beach every
night.
Coney Island is one of the most
famous seaside resorts in lie world,
and its popularity is just as great.
It is Karl's court Olyinpia, Seheveningen
and a good part of Boulogne
rolled into one, with some of the attractions
of Brighton and Troutville.
Millions of dollars are invested in
it, and it pays a high rate of pro (it,
even if it is busy only a few months
in the year.
Caused by Law's Delay.
