Fayetteville, Aug. 9. Jim Town son, a negro was stabbed and killed and Clay Johnson, colored, was also knifed in a three-cornered fight in which Adam Smith, another negro, was the third participant, on Blount street, this city, last night. The efforts on the part of the Dem ocrats and insurgent Republicans to put the President "in a hole" ended in a miserable fiasco. President Accomplished WTiat He Set Out to Do. An analysis of the work done shows that he achieved practically everything of importance which he set out to do. The results he at tained are positive, and ought to last, containing the provision for the re call of judges. Congress approved of that provision and he vetoed the j joint resolution. His attitude in this respect has also been sustained, and Congress has expunged the objection able paragraph.

A Democratic 111 uft Game. It is no secret that many Demo crats are just as well satisfied that the President rendered abortive the work of the "unholy alliance," be cause, after all, they are frank enough to admit, though, they are not proclaiming it publicly, that there was merit in the reasons cited by the President in his veto mes- sages. Wiliams Gets Cold Feet. John Sharp Williams, one of the Democratic leaders in the Senate got cold feet and was forced to oppose some of the amendments offered by his party members. When the House bill re-drafting the cotton schedule, was under consideration, and amendments were being offered, Senator Williams said: "Mr. .President, I think we are on the eve of doing some very danger ous things without due consideration. I do not believe that any one man can give due consideration to any great schedule of the tariff bill, no matter how able he is. I have had gome experience serving upon com mittees dealing with tariff questions, and I have, for the most part, found that my own opinion became modi fied very much by the information and suggestions I obtained from 13 or 14 other men serving upon com mittees. Amendments "Iniquitous." "Speaking for myself, therefore, I am not willing to be put on record as indorsing amendments containing page after page of tariff schedules, when I know that they neither have been considered at the other end of the Capitol nor can be considered by the time the amendment reaches there. The rubber schedule Is very inimiitoua in many regards. The sugar schedule, especially that part of it which deals with differentials, is very obnoxious to me. But for my self, I shall not vote to put upon this bill anything except things that have been considered In some com-! mittee somewhere, especially at the other end of the Capitol, or such things as we know would be consid-? ered by the time the amendment dealing with the subject reaches the House. "Of course, when a man here of fers to put coal on the free list, that requires no committee consideration.
