Fire Loss.

dry kilns belonging to the Sawyer &
Austin Lumber Company and situat-
ed on their grounds in the western
part OF the city, had narrow es-

The fire doubtless originated from
the fire which is constantly kept

consumed. The loss is estimated at
about $500.

Another element which will be
somewhat OF novelty as an inde.
pendent force will be the negroes.
There is a probability of meeting
being held IN Little Rock in tie
near future for the purpose of put

ticket composed entirely Of negroes.
This movement has the support OF
the Peoples Herald of Little Rock,
and the Herald. of Pine Bluff, of
which ]. { Duke, the negro who
nominated ssar. e. F. Auten for
governor ia the Republican conVen-
ton, is editor. There has long been
very evident desire on the part of
one element of the Republican party
70 minimize the Importance of the
negro from a partisan standpoint,
aud no one proposes to rebel. The
Peoples Herald sounds the keynote
of the opposition il the following:
The lily-white Republicans in
the state have prescribed, lnsnlted,
outraged, prosecuted, eaioled aud
belittled the black Republicans un-
til their manhood has rebelled
against the diaoolism Of the lily
whiteism. They have set at def
ance the basic idea Of Republican
ISM, declaring that the negro should
vote but not be voted for. They
have suited their actions to their
base conten tons in preventing the
negro from holding any office, hiss
ing him both in the league and state
conventions wher he dared to say
Z believe that the negro should
have recognition. Will we submit
to them or aid them ia their foul

On the other hand there will be
very considerable number of the
race who will remain loyal to the
party aud will support the ticket

most earnest addresses at the state
convention were delivered by such
negroes as E C. Morris, of Phillips,

left word for him to come at once on
his return. He also bought bottle of

he hoped would give some relief until
the doctor should arrive. In few
hours he returned, saying the doctor
need not come, as the child was much
better. The druggist. Mr.. Otto Scholz,
