KlUMliT, The New and Ulw rvtr of the lMh Instant, In a leading editorial advocate the l.oott Hgnlrirtt large corporat Ioiia th;it hi.- enercing and intimidating their einiiloyes into voting for McKlnley. We make the following extract from thu editorial : 'The Democrat! ought to return "sin eye Tor eye." jr a gnat corpo ration, organized to do a legitimate laixineH attempts to control the vote of the men It employs, they ought to ho prosecuted by the ofll corn of the law " "The people ought to take their punlshiiiont In their own hands. "The Democratic National Com mittee has requested to be advised of all firms or corporations that are pursuing the plan of coercion or Intimidation with the view of tellini' the honest people to boy cott all Mich concerns. The India uu Democrats are fully alive to the necessity of meeting intimidation with boycott and have already put it in force." From the above it is clear that the News and Observer heartily en- dorses, nationally, the boycott against corporations that practice control the votes of their employ- es. If It Is right to use the boycott against corporations on account of their damnable methods then why is it not right to use It when iudi viduais Ucical the will or the peo ple by ballot Btulling, coercion, in iimiuaiion, ounaoing, ana vio lencel The principle is precisely the same. The voter by the adop tion of ballot-stulling methods loses his vote and he has no more rights then than the employe who is co erced by the powerful corporation If the News and Observer thinks that tho "Democrats ought to re. turn an eye for an eye" on account of the action of these corporations, in influencing or controlling the votes of their employes by threat eiilng to discharge them. Should that paper complain if the men in this State, who have had their ballots stolen In the Au gust elect ion use in business deal lugs the boycott against the ballot Mtuffors and corruptlonists ? The principle Involved here is precisely the same, and tho News and Obser ver, to be consistent, should turn its lire against tho Simmons ballot stulling machine. That paper does not need to go to Indiana to learn of coercion, intlm idation or fraud In elections. In this Stato the damnable meth ods of the Simmons crowd "smell to heaven." ' Tho peoplo ought to take their punishment in their own hands," as the News as Observer suggests WILL NOT STAXDTItK TKST. Klsewhere will be found an edi torial from the Norfolk, Virginia, Kaudmark. a Democratic paier, de claring it.i opinion that the Supreme Court will declare the 4 'U rand fat her clause" of the Constitutional Amend ment in conflict with the Federal Constitution. The opinion held and expressed by the landmark is in accord with the opinion of many of the greatest lawyers in the United States who have given consideration to the proposition. A great number of leading n'ews lptTH, without regard to political associat ion, have declared that such a scheme of disfranchisement con travenes the Federal Constitution. Hut the mobocracy of this State wanted the offices, and Constitution, law, order, decency or anything else was not allowed to stand in their vay. With them the Constitution and Declaration of Independence were a 'covenant with hell." Tho address of President Venablo of the University was very excel lent, thoughtful and practical. Ho showed la splendid fashion the great work that the University has accomplished, and is accomplishing. This institution, being the head of the public school system of the State, should receive the cordial support of tho people, and they should feel proud of lt great record, which Is a part of the history of the BUle.

Yours Truly, S. B. Hall. The boycott, as a weapon against intimidation and coercion, can used with poworful effect. be Tho greatest of all issues so far as our farmer population is con cerned Is free speech, free ballot and a fair count. Everybody who believes In the prosecution of the principles of free government In this State should vote and work to defeat the present mobocracy. They have no respect for the rights of the common people as was demonstra ted in the August election. Every one who wants good laws and just government in tho State should unite on the Issue of honest eloc tions which is paramount to every other political consideration. The government reports, recently issued, indicate some slight im provement In the condition of the cotton crop In consequence of which there has been a dec. Ine in the price, cotton has been carried to market so rapidly in some sections that the receipts are larger than for last year. This gives the specula tor an opportunity to depress the price. If cotton were maikotod with some system the farmers would be greatly benefitted. The crop is short and farmers should not rush their cotton to market. An unf ir and dishonest election aw should have no place on the stat ute books of this country. Every vote that is cast should be honestly counted. A man who will commit perjury and steal ballots will rob a bank if the same opportunity for escape is afforded him. Every man who be lieves in honesty should use his in fluence to have an honest and fair ballot law enacted when the Legis lature meets. There is no excuse for the present infamous law to remain on the statute books. r Col. Bryan had the largest crowd to hear him when he spoke in New York last week that ever greeted a speaker in that State. It was a con tinuous ovation to him during his brief stay in that eity. He has made a number of speeches in New York State, and many think his chances are good for carrying it. However, the result i New York, where all the big financial institutions are lo cated, it is difficult to forecast with any degree of accuracy. There should be a strong, aggress ive and active Populist organization in every township in the State. If they are not already organized steps should be taken as soon as possible to perfect an organization. The Peo ple's Party is the only hope of the masses of this country, and they should rally to its support. As a party it is opposed to "fraud, force" and ballot-stuffing in elections. If the people's political liberties are to be preserved in this State, they must organize at once to defeat - the mo bocracy now in control. A A FUNERAL SHIP.'

'I' he South and Tbe SuHrK. Norfolk, Va., Landmark. Numbers of Northern papers are greatly pleased with some remarks recently made by Senator 'Tillman of South Carolina, in his frank st and mo tt engaging manner. There is no doubt that Tillman often says im pressive and sensible things. There is no doubt that he is a man of abili ty and force. In spite of the en thusiasm shown by several of our Northern contemporaries, however, we find it impossible to go farther ir praise of tho pitchfork-wielder. What gives his Northern admirers inch a nigh opinion of 1 tllman is seen from the following editorial comment in the Philadelphia Even ing Telegraph: "Senator Tillman, of South Caro Una, is not altogether the 'pitchfolk' fanatic that he is sometimes repre sented as being. He is a shrewd and intelligent observer, and realizes clearly just how far it is safe for him and his adherents to go in the furtherance of their favorite politi cal theories. He has given hia views on the Southern disfranchisement movement in a current interview, in which he displays more common sense and sound judgement than have been in evidence in the recent progress of the conspiracy against the colored voters of the 'lately re bellious States.' In Mr. Tillman's opinion, the ingenious device of the grandfathers clause,' by which the disfranchisement of the blacks has been effected in Louisiana and North Carolina, is such a plain discrimi nation against a class of the popu tation on account of color that it is in contravention to the XIYth Amendment to the National Consti tution, and will be declared uncon stitutional by the Supreme Court of the L'nited States, as soon as it comes before that tribunal for adjudica tion." The Landmark is inclined to be lieve that Senator Tillman is right about the "grandfather clause." We have always said that its acceptance by the Supreme Court is very doubt ful. The South Carolinian ' and Misaisdppian plans, by which the elimination of the ignorant and venal negroes Is effected without any resort to an ancestral qualifica tion, have already been passed upon by the Supreme Court and pronoun- Ced Constitutional. Of course, it is not strictly correct to say that the "grandfather clause'' tffdct8 the disfranchisement of the blacks, and we hardly think that Senator Tillman said it. The object of the grandfather clause is to ex cept the whites from the restrictions which apply to the negroes. Again, the Telegraph is in technical error when it adjudges this clause to be a plain discrimination against a class of the population on account of color." That is the effect, to be sure ; but the legal trouble with the grandfather clause is that it creates a privileged class. When you say to a body of men that all of them who can read and write or can pr jve the ownership of a little property may vote, you do nothing nnfair. Men who are not now able to meet the qualification may qualify them selves before the next election if they are in earnests Oa the other hand, when we say that every man may vote if he can read and write, or can prove the ownership of a cer tain amount of property, or can show that his ancestors could have voted before slavery was dis-estab-lished, then we open to one class an avenue of escape from the educa tional and property qualifications which is barred completely and eter nally against the other class. The fact that one class is white and ha other colored is well-known, j ist as it is well-known that an alternative educational and propert) quahfi;a tion will cat off ten or twenty negro votes to every white one; but the ancestral clause would oe equally nnfair if there were not a negro in the country.

REVOLT AMCKC IMSAJil FATIEtfTS 1V 1 ammtf- f tW Matea !!-V.fmi- All I'ut Vr Hate lir-n i !- turrit. Poughke psle, N. Y, Oct. 21 There was a revolt at the Mat. ash LIE State Hospital for the Criminal la sane, at 0 :f o'cl.ick tonight, wheu six or eight keejs-n were assaulted and uverjHiwered by Uut twenty Ins&nw patients. Some of the pa tients escaped and seven are still at large. One or two of the kep ers are badly bruised as a result of the assault. After the patients bad been given their usual Hunday night supjs r they were taken back to their apartments In company with keepers. Among the unmix t were . or 20 who slei.t in one of the large corridors, this being n cessary on account of the cramp-d conditions at the Institution. In this hall with tho patients wcr dx or eight keepers, who sat on their chairs, watching the inmates as they walked up and down the hall in a restless manner. There were no auspicious move ruenta on the part of the patients to indicate that they had been planning a revolt of kny kind. They looked as they always did, first at one keep er and then at another, but the keep ers did not think that there wm a'jj trouble in the minds of the twenty prisoners. Suddenly and without warning, each keeper attacked si multaneously by two or three per sons and heavy blows fell oa the heads o the surprised attendants. There did not seem to ba any leader of the revolt, and while the patients were assaulting the keepers they would glare at each other occasion allya8 if waiting for the word to make the break for liberty. The keys the keepers had were soon taken away from them and a rush was then made for the door leading from the ball into the dining room. As the patients ru3hrd through the dining room each one of them picked from the table a heavy plate or cup or bowl, to nse as a weapon In case they were overtaken by the keepers. The lights were still burn ine in all tne departments, and tut insane mob bad clear sailing. From the dining room they went through the adjoining rooms, the doors ot which were unlocked, and then into the hallway to the rear entrance. The patient in advance of the others was nervously fingering over his bunch of keys as he ran, looking for the keys to the rear door. The keys were well known to them and the rear door was unlocked without much loss of time. With a yell the mob rushed out of the narrow door, fUht ing with each other as they went, each wanting to be in the lead. In the yard they ran like deer and crowded around the big gate in the wall, while one of their number was turning the key in the lock. When the gate was thrown open they rush ed out of the yard, fairly tumbling over each other in their anxiety to be free again. In the meantime the keepers who had been overpowered h.d given the alarm, and after t chase, all bnt seven were recaptured DISMAL OUTLOOK. The Future of South Africa not Very Promising.

Texas Cyclone Atlanta, Tex., Oct. 21. A tornado struck about half a mile west of Loxli and 15 miles west of here, to day. The path of the tornado was 200 yards wide and the wind swept everything before it. One house in the centre of its path, occupied by negroes, was destroyed, six people being killed outright. Three others are missing and are supposed to le dead. The cyclone traveled from the southwest to the northeast, crossing the Texas & Pacific Railroad at Cami liellsville Spur, a lumber loading station, two miles north of Lodi.

Claudie had been narboring a grudge against his teacher, which toemed strange, for she is pretty, a dainty little woman, and he swore a deep oath that he would get even for past application of the birch while he was turned across her knee. Yes terday morning, taking advantage of the temporary absence of his parentr, he climbed upon a chair and secured his father a revolver from the bu reau. With the weapon buttoned tightly within his little jacket, he strode proudly off to school, trying to make up bis mind in what position of the anatomy to shoot the teacher, should she molest him.
