that one so young and with a young

useful future, should, be cut down.
We exclaim. "Why should , the great
enemy of Man have hUrled his In
satiable dart against this young, inno

Reaper gather in the beautiful blade

till the golden grain should appear?."
But virtue and' mnocenco do not shield
apainst the attacks of the great
enemy.
If the anxious prayers of friends
would have availed, .then this great
grief and sorrow would not have come
to these parents hearts. But the great
and Good Being had determined for
a purpose wise to Him now, and whose
wisdom shall appear, to us hereafter,

the. lightning flashing and striking in

of the devastation - caused by the
storm. , It is awful to" contemplate
the suffering that will follow this sad
visitation, as many"of-the tenants were
farming on shares.
31r. A. P. Branch, one of Wilson's
most prosperous farmers, was per
haps the greatest jlooser. The damage"
to his. tobacco crop alone will amount
to six thousand dollars. White his tre
mendous acrease of cotton and corn
will not yield more than a half crop.
His loss will be at least seven thou
sand five hundred dollars. He was
cultivating a -fourteen-horsn crop.
Forty acres of the tobacco Will Te cut
down and the only revenue! to. be "de
rived from this fine patch will be from
the stubble, - should conditions be fa

loser. He hadthifty-five acres of as

county. This will all be. plowed up
and corn planted. , iASt. season 3Ir.

ney-General Wadef I. . Kllis of Ohio.;
who was a meniber of thecommittee"
on resolutions to the Republican tik
tional. Convention, issued..' tonight re
plies of th criticisms: JfT the. plat
form . made by W. J. Bryan.' The?
attorney-general's statement . in part
follows: - 5
"The charge made by- Mr. Brjan
that the Republican declaration with
respect to ' the use 'of the wfit of '-Injunction
wan designed to "deceive 'the
laoring; man. Is : unworthyrof u candi
date for President and J tho- further
charge, that this plank merely declares
the c-xtstlng law and Will give no re;
llef In tho?e cases in which, there has
'been, an abuse of discretion? ;or l the
apprehension of it,- is unworthy of
any lawyer who, has 'examined this
question. 7 The anti-injunction resolu
tien -is a frank, clear, statement 'of
the; Tiepublican party's position on a
question : on which others; .have L been
attempting to deceive labor. The sole :
basis of any rational complaint as
toVthe Issuance of injunctions in labor
c.ases has been ' the - use eft the writ
without, notice and the long delays 'in
some instances which have inter
vened before a hearing of the case.
The present statute does not require
any notice at all before the granting
of a temporary order. land .it is en
tirely within . the discretion -of 7 the
court to postpone to any time the
judge may see - fil, the hearing upon
the: question of an : injunction. - The
Republican plank simply declares that:
notice shall always be given unless an
Irreparable inlur will result from de
lay, and. In that case, there shall be
a speedy hearinfr; provided, -in other
words, the platform declaration is
designed to give assurance that what
Is now the general practice In the
Federal courts' .will be made universal
by statute. In order that hereafter no
cause of complaint or misapprehen
sion shall; remain. This may not
satisfy the, extremists on either Hand,
but it. was not expected to do that.
It will meet the approval of every
right thinking man, whether an em
ployer .or an employe. . : . .' ! 7
""Mr. Bryan objects further to the
pase in; the Infunction plank which
proclaims confidence In the integriry
of, the courts. It is true, ; perhaps,
that; the convention which ' , Is . yi to
meet at Denver," rather than that,
which has. 'ust -adjournel at ChlcaK.
should express faith in the integrity
of the courts; but in view of the
Democratic attack of 1,898. and the
fact that the same forces which then
controlled that party are once- agafrr
in' supreme (command. It would seem
entirt ly appropriate for . the Repubr
lican party not. oily to ' remove any
possible cause of complaint " in ' the
use "of the writ of injunction, but to
make it clear that it would resent
again, as it did in . 1896 ; an attempt
to assail the Judiciary. '.
ah that any one - wants la that
powers of the Federal courts wlthr re
spect to tie use of . Injunction shall be
accurately defined by statute, , to. th
fhd' that all' occasions for ! complaint

been rare in the past, shall disappear
altogrether In the future. The Re
publican plank points to a -simple
and. straightforward way o' fachievlng
this purpose." 7 ' - . . . ...
