The Party Will Not Force.


 "Is 1t not lamentable that two great dailies like the Mobile Register and the Montgomery Advertiser should show so much temper because theyacan force the democratic party of Alabama to dis card Capt. Joseph F. Johnston as a can didate for the nomination for governor Captain Johnston has been an openly de- clared candidate for the nomination for oyer month, and if he was not accept able to the great majority of the party Is 1t not reasonable to suppose that there would not have been opposition devel- oped ere this, particularly when these two great dailies, in the language of a contemporary, have been scraping the state with fine tooth comb to find some candidate to oppose Captain Johnston? This is the best evidence to our mind that Captain Johnston is the first choice of great majority of the democratic party for governor, and this fact will be fully developed when the state con- vention assemblies, despite the powerful influence CD of the before mentioned dailies. Hurrah for Capt Joseph Fo Johnston. who is unmistakably and overl whelmingly the choice of the democratic party of Alabama for governor.

CHARGES OF FRAUD.


10 InVestlgate the Charges.
 Jackson, Miss. Dec. 13.-A sensational squabble is likely to be had before the legislature, which meets in January, and all on account of a state law which re- quires the seventy-five counties to con tract every five years for books to be used by the public schools These con- tracts were awarded a few weeks since, one big book concern, the American, cap turing the lions share Rival concerns now claim, however. that many of the contracts were secured through fraud and bribery. and will endeavor to have them set aside by the legislature. Each county has a board of school book con- tractors, and some of these it Is charged, were paid large sums of money for their votes. An Investigating committee will be asked for.

TITUsvIbLB NEARLY WIPED OUT
Two Merchants Are Under Arrest and Are
 Heavily Guarded


 Heavily Guarded. Jacksonville, Fla, Dec. 13.-The town of Titusville, in Brevard county, was nearly wiped out by fire about 1 o'clock this morning. The fire originated in Hamburgs store in the business centre of the town, and before it was gotten un- der control thirty-one buildings were de- stroyed. All efforts to control the fire were in vain until dynamite was used to blow up buildings. During the progress of the fire a MT. O'Brien entered a burn ing building to secure SIS, which he had left in his room.. He got the money, but was so badly burned that he died in short while. The total loss is estimated at $10O,00O, partially insured.
 The opinion is general that the fire was incendiary. and Messrs. Hamberg and Garner, merchants, have been arrested on suspicion and are now in jail. The fire originated in Hamberg's store, and the circumstantial evidence against the men is said to be strong Many threats have been made against the men today. and lynching was feared tonight To prevent this many special officers were sworn in, and the jail is now thoroughly guarded

An Unholy Warfare.

Says the Huntsville Argus:
 Never in the history of the state has such an unfair, unjust and unrelenting warfare been waged against any man within his party as has been kept up without ceasing by the Montgomery Ad- yertiser against that peer of any in his party, Capt. Joseph F. Johnston. It's venomous, blind and persistent assaults would be cruel if. they were not hurtless. The democrats of Alabama will submit to no such injustice. Within the last few days it has become manifest that no means will be deemed unworthy of use which will tend to effect the cherished end-the defeat of Johnston. But, mark you. the people believe all the more, from these desperate tokens,s that he is the man of all others who should be made governor of Alabama."
