 rade Will Be Monster One.

The arrangements committee of the Birmingham Trades council is making the final preparations for a due observ- ance of Labor Day, which event occurs here on Monday.

The many trades organizations of the city will turn out, Webers and other bands will be in line, the mayor and aldermen and firemen will swell the list, and the trades display will complete the pro- gramme, making the parade an attractive one.
 The ministers of the city have been re- quested to announce from their pu1pits that Dr. J. l.. M. Curry, noted Alabama divine, will make an address, and the fol- lowing letter is one of the replies received in answer to the. request:

TO MAKE 1T ALL WHITE.
CoIored Republican Electors May Be Pulled Off or the Entire Electoral Ticket
 May Be Taken Down.

The republicans were reticent about giving oub to the public just what their executive committee did at the meeting held in this city Thursday. The commit tee was in session several hours, and 1t was apparent that there was something more to consume their time than the con- sideration of a campaign committee, ap- pointing an advisory board and general discussion.
 It leaked out yesterday that plans were discussed looking to taking off the elect oral ticket the two colored nominees and putting on white men. The advisability was also discussed of taking down the entire electoral ticket and throwing the full republican strength to the democrat ic bolters, provided they would agree to vote for Mckinley as between Mckinley and Bryan in case it developed that Palmer and Buckner stood no show for election.
 It will be remembered that this latter act was in keeping with an interview with Bill Stevens recently published in the State Herald, who stated openly that such orders had their origin at the ma tional republican headquarters.

Ba1timore.Chicago.

Baltimore, Sept. 4-The champions won the first game from Chicago today, and after apparently losing the second con- test played to a draw. All kinds of base ball was presented during the afternoons performance, the first contest being one of the scrappiest and most exciting seen here for many days. Members of both teams eXerted themselves to make things interesting for the umpire, and many close decisions made numerous kicks pos sible. Anson was put out of the game for objecting to Emslie's rulings, and mo- ment later ejected from the grounds. The second game was called after the eighth inning on account of darkness. Clarkes thumb was split by foul tip in the sec ond inning. Attendance, 5597. Scores:

WHOM SHALL We BE

The campaign prevaricator is
much in evidence these days.
A man who reads both sides
only has his doubts multiplied.
1t is a strange thing that men
and newspapers that wouid
scorn to lie for money or sup.
press important truths when
public interest demanded their
utterance become absolutely
1nendacious when they deal
with politics.
For instance, the republican
leaders and newspapers declare,
10 the most positive terms, that
the free silver "craze," as they
term it, is on the wane. that
Bryan's speeches amount TO
nothing; that the revolt against
the classes by the masses is
only an evanescent thing, here
today and gone tomorrow. and
that before the ides of Novem
Der the free silver movement
will have run its course and
gone down forever.
On the other hand. the fret
silver men grow enthusiastic
and some Of them declare tina
Bryan will carry every stat
in the Uuion; that the free sill
yer movement Is sweeping To
country like wildfre; ths
nothing can stand before it o
check its progress.
Now, anybody who pom Ter
all this and thinks for a me
ment knows that the extra
VACANT claims put forth b
both parties are without found
alton in tact. The campaig
prevaricator is abroad in th
land.
The fact is the fight hetwee
