Sir Wilfrid Laurier, the premier Of
Canada, whose ministry has been up
held by an overwhelming majority, is
undoubtedly the most prominent figure
In the Casldlan world of politics. The
recent election was most bitterly con-
tested, and the Conservatives were de-
feated largely owing to their efforts to
stir up racial and religious differences
In the Dominion. Premier Laurier,

Mr.. Eckert, after walking around

Block of Frame Buildings made Easy Work for the
 Flames.

NASHVILLE, ARK, Dec. GA fire originating In the opera house build ing today destroyed several build ings before 1t could be subdued. This building was in q block of frame buildings and the flames soon spread to other and adjacent buildings. con suming them very rapidly. It was a very busy day and the town was full of people. As soon as the alarm was given all efforts were bent to- ward saving as much of the stocks as possible and checking the pro- gress of the fire. A favorable south wind prevented the destruction of many houses, which would have oth erwise been consumed, and saved the cotton yards, containing about $200, ,000 wortl of cotton, only about half of which was insured. All the buildings in this block were burned but five.
 The total loss on all buildings and stocks. including damage to stocks saved, will be in excess Of $100, ,000.

He replied, Fifty dollars.

ITO whom did you give the money? the reporter asked. "To my attorney, Mr. King White, , and with laugh the negro added: II don't know what became of the money, but know the case was quashed and I never did go into court.o
 And after this Smith had con- fessed his crime to an officer of Jefferson county. and was ready to confess when placed on the witness stand.
 Hon. H. King White also submit-. ted very gracefully to an interview by the Graphic reporter, and said in part: IT knew it was base outrage, upon Mr.W. B. Sorrells to even in ti- mate that he was innuanced by any money consideration to dismiss the case. On the day it vas dismissed it was clearly understood that it was to save Jefferson county the expense of bringing the witnesses that l ordered here, to attempt hopeless con viction. Mr. King also says he would have 'proved that Smith was in Greenville. Miss, on the night of the robbery" even though Smith had confessed in the presence of five sworn officers of the law. Doe officer vas Constable Stewart who lives in Pine Bluff, and the negroes could both have been convicted without the expense of sending outside of Jefferson county. However, we must admit that if Mr. King convinced the prosecuting attorney of the inne- cence ot Smith and Brannon in the face Of Smiths confession and all the other evidence, then ne's much smarter man than the prosecuting attorney and should be elected to tLat position at the next election.
 On the 23d of November Chief Philpot of Pine Buff wrote Chief Clancy of Helena as follows: II went to Memphis and brought John Branoon back Wednesday. To my utter astonishment I an6 that our prosecuting attorney nolle pros sed the case against aSlick," the negro brought from GreenYille by our constable. am unable to under stand why this was done as the negro confessed the whole thing to the constable and assisted him in re- covering some of the stolen property am afraid without "Slick" we will be unable to convict Brannon. How ever, if you can furnish me the names of any witnesses will see
 that they are subpoenaed."
 It is only necessary to state in conclusion that Brannon was also released withouta trial in Pine Bluff. He is awaiting trial by the circuit court in t6is county and will un- doubtedly be sent to thepenitentiary sent from Phillips for a crime he committed in Jefferson county. Smith is awaiting preliminary trial for the same thing and has already canfessed his guilt. He will surely go to the>walls.
 District Attorney Sorrells couldn' t convict these negroes. We haven | any thing more to say about it and
 nothing to suggest to the people
 who vote in Jefferson county.
