ro the Editor of The Herald and News:
In 1876 the leaders of the Democratic
party after an uninterrupted succession
of defeats were in great doubt as to
who to nominate as standard bearers in
the election of that year. On the 9th
lay of June, just before the party met
in convention, the writers in a letter to
the Charleston News and Courier, sug
Testedl the nomination of Tilden of New
York and Hendricks of Indianc as the
strongest ticket that could be named.
rlhey were nominated and elected, but
through the timidity of Mr. Tilden to
say the least they were counted out by
mie vote.
The party leaders seem now to be
more at sea than they were in 1876 as
o who to nominate as our standard
earers in 1904. The paramount need
s nominees who are learned and emi
mently practical and successful business
rnen, and who are in sympathy with us.
EIon. Wim. C. Whitney of New York
md Mayor Carter Harrison of Chicago,
[I1., possess these qualifications and
ieedl to the full.
Mr. Whitney has invested largely in
Aiken county and has spent January,
[i'ebruary and March there for a num
ser of years. He has identified himself
.vith us. He is one of us by choice.
EIe was secretary of the navy during
Vir. Cleveland's first administration of
;he government when he laid the founda
;ion of our splendid navy that swept
spain, then regarded as a world's
>Ower, from the waters without loss.
Mayor Carter Harrison of Chicago
ias served several terms as mayor of
~hat great wecstern city and has given
reat satisfaction to the people.
Both of these eminent citizens are in
~he prime of manhood and the pleni
~ude of their intellectual powers. In
hecir hands the peace and prosperity of
>ur southland and the glory of the re
>ublic will ntot only be safe but will be
rojected upon a sublimer career than
3ver before. Let the people of South
?3arolina when they meet next year in
~onvention instruct their delegates to
~he national convention to cast the solid
ioto of this State for Whitney and
Ilarrison first, last and all the time.
[ invoke all the southern States to do
ikewise. If they do this, States north
Aill fall into line. With Whitney and
[larrison as our standard bearers in
L904 President Roosevelt, the little fel
ow with the vagaries, will not know
1e is running. Whitney wvill beat him
200,000 votes in the State of New York.
A Decmocratic administration of the
~overnmnent will be assured for eight
years. So splendid andl satisfactory
will b)e the a< ministration of Mr. Whit
ricy's first term ho will be renominated
for the second time by acclamation.
The writer spoke in New York State
in three p)residential campaigns, '68, '72
and '84. In 1884 he spoke for eight
weeks in New York State gratis for
Mr. Cleveland under the auspices of
Tammany Ilall. lie knows what he is

ing the surveying and is also personally
superintending the work. The exten

Caldwell street at Scott's creek. Thence
it will run across alongside the new

SHB WAS A NATIVB OF NEWBERRY.
Daughter of James Kilgore,- Formerly of
Newberry, Shot In Washington by
' Her Husband, Who Suicides.
The Washington Post of Sunday con
tained news of a shocking. tragedy
which occurred in Washington on Satur
day, and which holds a deep interest
for the people of Newberry. Mrs.
Willie Mae Denham, daughter of Mr.
James Kilgore, now of Washington, but
formerly of Newberry, was shot and
killed by her madly jealous husband,
who then sent a bullet into his own
demented brain, killing himself in
stantly.
Mr. James Kilgore, the father of the
unfortunate young lady, was a native
of Newberry, and lived here until 1888,
when he moved to Washington, carry
ing his family with him. At that time
the daughter whose life was ended by
her husband on Saturday, was a beauti
ful young girl of about thirteen years
of age.
Mr. Kilgore lived in Helena up until
the time of his removal to Washington.
He is a nephew of the late Andrew J.
Kilgore, of Newberry, and consequent
ly a first cousin of Messrs. John B.
Kilgoro and Jesse Kilgore, who now re
side near the city. He was for several
yeai% clerk in the law office of the lon.
Y. J. Pope, now Chief Justice of South
Carolina, and was connected with the
office of the Clerk of Court during the
incumbency of Clerk of Court E. P.
Chalmers, 1877-1884. He hap visited in
Newberry during recent years.
Mrs. Willie Mae Denham was the
third child and the second daughter.
She was twenty-eight years of age and
only six years ago in Washington mar
ried the.man who on S.turday perpe
trated the horrible deed which ended
her life.
Following is the account of the
tragedy which appeared in the Wash
ington Post of Sunday:
STORY OF THE TRAGIDMY.
"Failing in one attempt to kill him
self and wife four nights ago, Herman
F. Denham, a letter carrier, of 426
Eighth street, northeast, made careful
preparations early yesterday morning
and shot his wife, Mrs. Willie M. Den
ham, as she slept by his side. Then he
sent a bullet into his own brain. Both
died instantly. The police made a care
ful investigation, but the only motive
they could discover for the (eed was
that Denham was insanely jealous.
"The Denhams made their honie with
Mrs. Denham's parents, Judge and Mrs.
Jamct Kilgore, at the Eighth street
house, and Judge Kilgore was the first
to discover the tragedy. His wife heard
the shots, which seemed to come from
a vacant lot in the rear, and sent her
husband to investigate. On the way
down stairs he smelled powder smokeq
and as knocking brought no response
from his daughter or son-in-law, he
burst open the door of the back parlor
on the first floor, which was their room.
Both were lying on the bed, dead. The
smoking revolver, which wvas even then
slipping from Denham's relaxed hand,
told the story but too plainly.
"Judge Kilgore ran to No. 9 precinct
station house5, two squares away, andl
gave the alarm. Sergeant Falvey, in
charge, and Policemen Smith and Curd
hurried to the house, picking up Drms.
Boswell and Cole on the way. After
examining the bodies, the. physicians
statedI that both D)enham and his wife
were dead, and that death must have
been instantaneous.
ASLEP wHEIN SHOT1.
"Mrs. Denham was still lying as if in
sleep, and it was evident that death had
come to her without a struggle. Her
husband was in a more rigid position,
the revolver, a 32 caliber hammerless,
lying on the bed beneath his hand.
"Sergt. Falvey, sent the patrol wvag
on to the residence of Coroner Nevitt,
andl he was on the scene before 6
o'clock. His investigation showecd that
Mrs. Denham had been shot through
the left temple, wvhich was the side
nearest her husband. The wound which
caused the latter's death was in his
right temple, and the revolver hadl been
held in his right hand. The coroner
concluded that Denham murdleredl his
wife and then committed suicide. Cer
tificates of death were given according
ly.
,,The previous attempt which Den ham
made to kill himself and wife was on
Wednesday night, when he turned on
thegasin the room after his wife had
gone to sleep. Mrs. Kilgore, on that occa
sion, dletected the odor in time to prevent
a serious endling. Denham 's explanation
that he must have turned1 the cock while
walking in his sleep was acceptedl as
plausible, for at that time there was no
hint of his intendedl deed.
Nor wvas there anything in his deC
meanor on Friday night to indicate even
the possibility of such a tragedy. D)ur.
ing the evening all the members of the
two families had been at the D)enham's
home for a social time and game of
cards, and1 when his guests departed,
Denham walked to the, door andl bade
all farewell. When they retired Mrs.
D)enham ap)parently went to sleep at
once, but it is presumed that he stayedl
awake and brooded until dawn, for it
was just 5 o'clock when Mrs. K ilgore
was awakened by the shots.
ALWAYS .JA)oUS 0O' 1[En1.
"'Two wveeks ago D)enham, who had
been connectedl with the p)ost-office for
over twelve years, t ok his annual leave,
andl with his parents, his wife's parents,
and D)r. andl Mrs. Philip Wisner, a
brother-in-law, spent two weeks cam
ping at Colonial Beach. At that time
nothing out of the ordinary happened,
save that D)enham displayed marked
jealousy, but. this neite(l no ommnt,
as he had during his whole married life
been swayed by the passion. The
members of the two families declare
that he had no reason to be jealous.
"It is evident now, though, that his
continued watch of his wife's every
look and act finally produced the form
of insanity which could have no other
outlet than the destruction of himself
and all that he hold most dear.
"Herman F. Denham was a son of
Thomas S. Denham, a painter, of 702
Ninth street southeast. Six years ago
he married Miss Willie M. Kilgore, a
daughter of Judge James Kilgore, a
law clerk in the Treasury Department.
The Kilgores' former home was in
Newberry, S. C., and the murdered
woman will be taken to the family
burying ground there for interment.
Denham will in all probability be buried
in the Congressional Cemetery here.
Definite arrangements for the two
funerals have not yet been made, but
it is thought they will be on Tuesday
or Wednesday.
"Denham was thirty-three years old,
and his wife, who is described as being
a beautiful woman, wias twenty-eight
years old. They had no children.
"It was stated last night by a mem
ber of Denham's family that certain
facts in coinection with the tragedy
were being inquired into, and that the
result would be made public within a
few days. No intimation as to the
nature of the promised developments
was vouchsafed."
