WHERE MR.. HOLTON STANDS.

Some talk having been made over the
matter of the standing of ]. B. Holton of
Charleston on the school question, and
letter from Mr.. Camp, asking Mr.. Holton
to defend his position, having appeared in
this paper, we give the following Jas the
substance of Mr.. Holton's answer, togeth-
er with letter from J. S. Sweeney, reli-
able citizen of Charleston:
eff my friend Camp had been correctly
informed relative to the canvass in our
town as to my position on the school
question, his article in last weeks MONI-
TOR would have been entirely uncalled for,
for certainly did not make the school
question an issue to further my cause, and
I further publicly declared at the caucus
that, if elected senator, I should expect to
carry out the wishes of the majority on
the school question, and defined my posi-
tion clearly.
1 have been member of the school board
in this town ever since the present system
came into existence, and for quite pro-
portion of that time have been chairman
of the board, and I think that the citizens
of our town will bear me out in the state
ment that I have done all that I could to
make it a success. / believe in giving the
present law a far trial. J.B. HoLToN."
Charleston, June 25th, 1896.
Mr.. Editor,-My attention having been
called to an article in last weeks MoNI-
TOR by D. M. Camp, relative to Mr.. Hol-
toms position on the school question, I
wish to say that, as one of the strong sup
porters of DR.. Human, and in justice to
Mr.. Holton, that I had personal talk
with Mr.. Holton early in the canvass in
relation to the town or present system of
schools, and asked him this question-if
he thought the school system ought to be
changed? His answer was, No, do not
think the school matter ought to be tam
pered with this year. He also publicly
stated at our caucus that if he was elected
senator he should carry out the wishes of
the majority of the county on the school
question. j. S. SWEENEY.

WAS FROM A CIGAR BUTT
START OF a FIRE IN LUCAS BROS
MILL OFFICE.
Furniture and Papers Destroyed -
Good Worw of Chemical-Alarm
Sent from Inter Island Wharf

\ few minutes after twelve Wednes-
day night, \. w. Keech, telephoning
at the Inter Island dock office, turned
in an alarm of fire. The whistle called
promptly.
The fire was found to be in the rear
Office at Lucas mill. When the en-
gines reached there the fine walnut
desk, chairs, loose books and papers
and the floor were abaze. The flames
reached to the ceiling. A stream from
the chemical engine extinguished the
fire in few minutes.
1t seems clear that the fire started
from cigar thrown into a wooden
cuspidor containing saw dust. From
about o'clock to $3.50 in the after
occupied the office. The floor took fire
at the spot where the cuspidor was
left when the Office was closed for the
night. The furniture, etc, evidently
caught from the same place.
The damage to the building is slight.
Repairs were made this morning. The
fine walnut desk was destroyed and
the balance of the furniture damaged.
Books and papers left out of the safe,
some of value, were also destroyed
One loss, regretted most of all by the
Lucas brothers, was several pictures
which belonged to their late father.
