We were not all statesmen and the thousand on the other side were neither fools nor traitors. We concluded they were right. y

THE WAY OUT IN ALABAMA:
Negro Electors Will Be Replaced by
 White Men on Republican Ticket.

White Men on Republican Ticket.
 BIRMINGHAM, Ala, July 28.-The Re- publican managers in this state think they see good opportunity to catch many sound money Democratic votes for Mckinley if they replace the two ne- groes now on the Republican electoral ticket with white men, This has just been done in Georgia and it is said that National Chairman Mark Hanna will be called upon at once to arrange for the change in Alabama It is said further that the negro electors are ready to do the biddiug of their leaders. The change is expected to occur immediately after the August state election The result of the Populist convention at St. Louis meanwhile has served to prevent q fusion of the Populists and Republicans on an electoral ticket in this state, hence Re- publican managers have begun to turn their attention to the direction of the sound money Democrats whose votes they will make every effort to capture.

ris, i'll which he is quoted as saying:
 ''The Kansas plan is for Populists in their state convention at Abilene, Aug ust 5, to indorse Bryan and Sewall elec- tors whom democrats will name at Hutchinson the preceding day"
 Continuing, Harris said: ''It is gen orally understood there will be fusion in Kansas this year, although there has been no conferences on the subject and consequently no plans have been formu- lated, but fusion is in the air We will nominate our candidates for state off cers and telegraph Democrats the result. They will endorse our nominees and we will endorse theirs
 Ex-Congressman Jerry Simpson of Kansas, who was present during the in- teryiew, is quoted as saying there is nothing else to do but accept such Q plan, and ex-Congressmen Jeff Hudson voiced the same sentiments.
 Under Topeka date The Times prints an interview with ex- United Stat 8 sn- ator John Martin who approves the plan as far as it goes. He, however, would have a conference of the committees ap- pointed by the Hutchinson and Abilene conventions to arrange details,
 Populist ex-Governor Llewelling of Kansas, ill published interview, also approves the plan of fusion. Senator Peffer was interviewed as he passed through the city enroute home from the St. Louis convention, said 'The mass of the Populist party wishes to see Will liam J. Bryan the next president and no matter what differences of opinion may arise nothing can prevent him from car rying every southern state. He will also carry every western state" He added slowly: He will carry Kansas by 5o,0oO majority

SMITHEE IS WRATHY.
Has a Redhot Editorial Tn
 His Paper.
IT IS SEVERE ON THE PoPULIsTs.

He Says Few Demagogica1, Selfish
 Leaders et the St. Louis Convention
 Sacrificed, Murdered and Crucified
 Monetary Reform-Roasts Texas and
 some Other Southern Delegations.
 LITTLE ROCK, July 28.-Colonel J. N. Smithee, editor of the Little Rock Gazette, who was closely associated with Senator James K. Jones, chair man of the Democratic national com- mittee, Hon. Thomas Patterson of Col orado and other Bryan leaders at the Populist national convention, has re- turned to the city. Colonel Smithee is thoroughly disgusted with the action of the convention and gives vent to his feelings in column article ill The Ga zette. The article says in part
 s'Let no Populist ever again open his head to claim that he belongs to the only party that fayors the restoration of silver. If ever great and holy cause was sacrificed, murdered, crucified on the ambitious cross of 8 few demagogi- cal, selfish leaders it was monetary re- form at St. Louis. Free silver received stab by the national convention from which it staggered and reeled like 8 drunken man. Murdered i'll the house of its friends
 s'It will take time to recover from the blow, but recover it will and woe be to the men who betrayed the holy cause of the honest yeomanry of the country.
 1.-The narrow, contracted, selfish lead CTS have doomed the Populist party They have pulled down the structure over their own heads The wi1deyed, loudmouthed Texans, aided by the ca lamityshriekers, would not heed the ad- vice of the wise, conservative men of their party. They insisted on rushing to their own destruction.
 "They hissed the venerable white haired Senator Stewart of Nevada. who has done more than all others to bring to the attention of the people the wrong done by John Sherman and his cocoon. spirators against silver; they hissed Hon. Thomas NJ. Patterson of Colorado, who refused to support Cleveland in 1892, and threw his influence to General Weaver ill that campaign and carried his state for the Peoples party ticket ] they hissed the brilliant young Colorado ex- congressman, Lafe Pence, whose bright record i'll congress did more than that of any other man to give respecta- biIity and standing to the Peoples party i; even Jerry Simpson, the veteran Peoples Party advocate of Kansas did not es- cape their jeers. This, too, from the ehivalric south. But the Texan, the Mississppian, the Arkansan, the Geor- gian and other middle of f-the-road south erners were in the saddle, and they rode to the death of their party. If ever men proved their incapacity to govern, they did.
 "The westerners, who have electoral votes at their command, were voted down by men who not only have no electoral votes to deliver, but no con- gresslnen nor anything else. The nom- ination of Bryan against his will with q new running mate in the person of ex- Congressman Watson of Georgia, will not save the Peoples party. It does not dAserved to be saved. n
