FRANKFORT. The summer home of Mr..
George Peirce on the hill out of the village,
on the slope of Mt. Waldo. was destroyed by
fire Thursday night, Nov End. The house
has not been occupied for a month or six
weeks, Mr.. PIERCE having removed to Bangor
with his family as usual to pass the winter
Most of the furniture and effects had been
taken from the house, but considerable
amount of household effects was lost. The
fire started, apparently, in the rear end of
the barn, and quickly spread until the whole
set of buildings was in flames. The fire
made great blaze which was seen for miles
around. In the barn were some I2O tons of
hay, carriages, harnesses, etc, and all went
up in smoke. Three years crops of hay were
stored there for high price. Mr.. Pierce
had an insurance of $500. He has made
no plans about rebuilding. The fire was
incendiary.

THE NEGRO PROBLEM IN BROOK
1NN

New York city has adopted The policy
of educating white children and black
children in the same schools There was
no discrimination against the negro, eithe,
as pupil or teacher. As a necessary con-
sequence OF such a system, a negro has
now been designated TO take charge Of a
white school in The city Of Brooklyn and
"a storm Of indignation has been raised
among the whites The white teachers
are threatening to resign in body and
the patrons of the school are in a state
OF rebellion.
The incident will teach New Workers
lesson. and that is what public schools
are for We Of the South have set our
faces firmly against mixed schools and
we have tried as far as possible. TO
keep the two races from coming into com
nict in any department OF life. We have
pursued this course because it is the
course Of wisdom and safety. The races
cannot be mixed in the South without
causing a serious clash. The peace and
prosperity Of the South demand that the
races be kept apart. The South has
adopted an ironciad rule. from which
there must be no departure Let one eX-
ception be made and there win be The
beginning Of trouble.
If New York is going 10 have mixed
schools and mixed teachers it must. logi-
cally. have negro teachers for white chill
dren. Worse than that, If this system be
kept up and carried to it's logical conclu-
sion. there will be social equality and mix
ed marriages. The white people Of Brook
Ign are now coming face to face with the
negro problem, and we are frank TO say
that we are not disposed to shed tears in
their behalf. They have gotten them
scves into ridiculous predicamcnt. ana
they do not know how TO get out of it
But II they will hear word of counsel
from the South. We tell them that in deal
ing with the negro question they must
not adopt halfway measures. There must
be complete separation or a general mix
ing up.

irolhd BY the Rockefeller Money Trust.
In short tho Journal warns the people
| that the money interests OF this country
/ VIII soon be controlled by one great bank
ing institution.
| We DO moi pin our faith TO anything
that We see In the New York Journal. IL
Is "A sensational newspaper and cannot

/ or n may not be true The probability
is that It Is bit Of Journal sensation
| and nothing more. But whether il be
| truo or not the silver Democrats, whom
shc Journal has for so long a time repre-
scented. claim that there is a great money
trust in this country, and that the people
Of the country are slaves Of 1t. They
say that the passage OF the currency bill
now before the Senate. in which the gold
STANDARD is declared. will simply strength
en- the hands OF the money trust and still
further tie the hands OF the people.
But what do the silver Democrats Offer
as q remedy for this alleged evil? They
propose that the government shah he
converted into the greatest money trust
OF all and that the supply Of money
which his trust is to control shall be in
creased by the coinage OF an the silver

eminent shall issue the money. and the
banks Of the country sGll have no au-
thority whatever to issue and circulate
their notes in their own locality or else
where.

try on silver basis and bounce the

knows that It is simply impossible under
present conditions for the Democratic
party to win in 1900 with Bryan as the
nominee. and with Coin Harvey as the
editor of Democratic literature. The
people in this country have lost conf
dence in the Democratic party as now
organized. and the party is in no position
TO give relief which It's leaders say the
country needs. The party is gathering the
fruits Of the folly Of 1896. In that famous
campaign it forsook its principles and its
best friends, joined itself to the Populists
and Free Silver Republicans of the West
and lost the confidence Of the public
which it had for so long a time enjoyed.
II in that campaign the party had stood
by It's old-time principles, It might have
been defeated. but it would at least have
preserved its integrity. and to-day It
would be in good lighting trim with every
prospect of gaining the victory next year
But the Democratic party is and will be
powerless to save the country from the
danger with which Mr.. Bryan says il is
threatened.

\ LESSON FROM PASSING EVENTS

The statement published yesterday from
the Director Of the Mint In which ne
argued that the recent Wall street panic
was due to over~speculation in stocks
contained some undeniable truths. though
II did not state the whole Of the case.
II is undoubtedly fact. that in normal
times the banks and other holders Of
money encourage spectators TO buy
stocks upon margin ana that the specuia-
tors rush in and borrow every dollar for
that purpose that they can get their hands
upon. 1t is also undoubtedly fact that
when this process has gone TO certain
extent the unsubstantial fabric topples and
the spectators are sold out with most
6t.astrous results to themselves.
= table published in the report OF the
Comptroller of the Currency sheds a
strong light upon the way ina which this
speculative use Of the money Of the coun-
try is growing. 1t is as follows:
