DEMOCRACY A CREED

Senator John T. Morgan Says Elimination of Black Vote
 Will Not Affect the
 Party in Alabama.

Washington, D. C., May 17.-Senator Morgan was asked this afternoon:
 How will politics be affected by the elimination of the negro?"
 with the Democrats of Alabama democracy Is a creed" he said. Tt was born into the territory of passed century; it has grown up in the State; it enters into the formation of char acter by inheritance. education, tenn perament and bent of philosophy; this creed forms a part of the character of our people.
 The idea recently advanced that the elimination of the negro is going to give birth. to, new Republican party in the South Is not based on an under standing of the real sentiments Of our people. -. t.
 Tt is assumed that we are coopered together by the negro question, brass bound with hoops tightly sinched; and that when the negro is removed the slaves will shrink, the hoops fall off and the whole thing go to pieces.
 .HThe intelligent men of Alabama vote their conviction. I know of no man who is a Democrat merely on &C., count of the negro.
 "There are some Republicans who vote with us on State matters for ie- spectability's sake and for the protec- tion of their families and their busi- ness, but they vote the Republican pa- tionaI ticket and maintain their party loyalty. The elimins tlon of the negro will enable these men 70 vote for Re- publican State officers without sacrific- ing their self-respect. Democrats will still be Democrats and Republicans still Republicans.
 "The democracy of Alabama is based on reason. is a matter of political phil Iosophy. It has a certain definite creed. as a religion. and our people do, not look with favor upon any depart- Ire from it. whether it be toward the doctrines of the Republicans or of Pop uIists or any other not strictly and to inc letter those of democracy. They are extremely sensitive in their faith"

A WAREHOUSE BURNED
MORE THAN ONE THOUSAND
 BALES QF COTTON CONSUMED.
A Fire Spread Rapidly and the Entire Building Was Ahame When
 the Fire Department Arriv-
 ed on the Scene.
Advertiser Bureau.

At 10 o'clock this morning the ire alarm was given and a great stream of people rushed toward the corner Of ChurcR and Water Streets, where 1t was found that the warehouse Of J. J. Babcock was on fire. At first only a small column of smoke could be seen to ascend above the warehouse, but In a few moments q volume of smoke burst forth.
 The warehouse was an open building, with sheds around the walls. and more than 1000 bales of cotton was stored there. piled up along the, walls under the sheds The doors of the warehouse on the Church Street side were opened and a wind blowing from the south made the opening act as 8 funnel ana the flames leaped from bale to bale a& if powder had been spread over the cotton.
 An effort was made to get some of the cotton out of the building. but the fire proved to be so hot that only four bales were rolled out on the trucks be- fore the door was mass of flames and the place was too hot for any human being to go near 1t. The wooden plat form out side the warehouse also caught fire and the flames ran out to the edge of the sidewalk on the wood work and that of itself would have prevented any more cotton being got- ten out, even if the entrance had not been a boiling, seething mass Of flames.
 It was fully eight or ten minutes after the fire was discovered before the alarm was turned in. All this time the flames were making headway and by the time the two hose companies ar rived on the scene the flames were bursting from under the metal roof along the whole length of the building on Lauderdale Street. It soon spread to the offices on the Water Street side and there was hardly time to take out the desks and chairs before the flames burst through the doors and the of- fees were nearly as hot place as the storage rooms in the rear.
 When the water was turned on the fire boys did good work and by F o'clock they had the flames under con- trol and were standing on the walls of the building playing four or five streams of water on the cotton and the roof that had fallen in.
 The cotton is almost an entire loss This cotton was owned by the differ ent merchants and planters who had it stored there, and some was insured and some was not. None of 1t was in- sured to its full value. The loss on the building and the cotton is estimat- ed at $50,00e, in round numbers.
 A fire wall ran through the centre of the building and there were 800 bales stored in the northeast side Of the building. The wall was thick and the fire did not break through. If tt had gotten through that wall the 300 bales would have been consumed and the old Wailes & Cory building at the corner of Water and Lauderdale Streets would have gone up in smok , with the rest and the business portion of lower Broad Street would have been threatened.
 About 12:3o the Uncle George" en- zine was put to playing stream on thA fire but the cotton was still smok : ino and seething and 1t was several

A BITTER FIGHT IS ON
CITY OFFICIALS AND BOARD OF
 HEALTH AT OUTS.
Some Red-Hot Resolutions Passed by the Dallas County Board of Health at a Meeting
 Thursday.
Advertiser Bureau,

a AosCEtiScI buTe&u,
 Selma. May 17.
 There have been a good many cases of smallpox among the negroes of Sel. ma during the past month or two. Mayor Mcleod requested the Board of Health to call meeting yesterday to consider the matter. but he had to 10 to Montgomery on business and did not meet with 1t. This seems to have angered the Board of Health. and after waiting awhile for the Mayor to show up the members passed the following resolutions:
 "Inasmuch as the Dallas County Board of Health has absolutely no au- thority. but is simply an advisory board to the City Council; and
 Whereas. The City Council has sel- dom seen fit in the past to accept our recommendations; and
 Whereas. The Board of Health is being censured for not stamping out epidemic diseases.
 Resolved. That the Board of Health refuses to make any further suggee- tions to the City Council; be it further
 Resolved. That no steps be taken to prevent the spread of infectious dis eases unless the City Council gives this Board full authority and control in all matters relating to public health.
 xkDoOhvGus AhGS - NSRy VI ehCcV ASo- olutions be furnished the Mayor and City Council and the daily press"
 These resolutions have naturally aroused the ire of some of the city fathers and they are not in a very pleasant frame of mind. A member of the Council, was seen by an Advertiser representative and he expressed him. self very vigorously about the matter.
 T was surprised at the tone of the resolutions" said the councilman. "in view of what the City Council has done. The Board of Health has not made a request of the City Council in two years that I know of. The last time that they made request was when they asked that a physician be employed to vaccinate everybody, which was done. We elected a phy- sician to do the vaccinating and sent a policeman with him to compel those to be vacclnated who objected to 1t. We not only paid the physician what he charged for doing the work, but sent a committee from the Council be- fore the Board of Revenue and got that body to appropriate some money to have the suburban population vacci- mated.
 "The Council Is directly responsible to the people for the manner in which we spend their money. We do not in- tend to let the Board of Health get up and say it wants $1,000 to stamp out smallpox and then spend the money as 1t sees fit. The Council has some rights in the premises and we intend to enforce those rights. We are per- fectly willing to cooperate with the Board of Health, but think those resolutions uncalled for." f-A-..
 The resolutions may cause fight be- tween the City Council and the Board of Health unless cool heads take charge of affairs and smooth matters over. A good many think that the Board of Health has acted hastily. as Mayor Mcleod, in calling the body together. was acting for what he thought was the best interests of the entire city and had no intention of offending the phy- sicians of Selma.

ammunition for Chilli, and her subse- quent surrender to the United States cruiser Charleston, constituted one of the most stirring events of the Cbilian trouble of 1891. As set forth in the official papers submitted to the Con- mission, the Itata was chartered by the provisional government of Chilli to transport small arms for the land forces under that provisional govern ment. which is held to have been the lawful government of Chilli at that time.
 The Itata proceeded to San Diego, Cal, and soon after took on a cargo consisting of 2,500 cases of rifles and 200 cases of ammunition. The ship ment was made at a point near the Island of San Clemente on May 8, 1891. Just before this the steamer was boarded by one Spaulding, said to be an officer of the United States, who had come to take possession of the ves- sel. He was sent ashore by the officers of the Itata on the ground that he was unable to exhibit any authority as an officer of this government. The 1tata then took her cargo of arms to 1Que- que. After she started. American ships were sent in chase of her. and a famous race down through the Pacific ocean occurred between the pursued and her pursuer.
 At the same time. Admiral McCann. Commander-in-Chief of the United States naval station in Chilli, notified the Chilian Government that the later in procuring her cargo of arms within the waters of the United States. was guilty of violation of our neutrality laws. The document adds:
 "IJpOn these representations of Ad- miral McCann, and because of the de- mand of the government of the United States, accompanied as they were by the presence of large naval force, the Itata was surrendered under duress, to the representative of the United States"
 The Itata was then brought back by the Charleston. under command of Captain Remey and was given over to the United States Marshal at San Diego. She was libelled as being in the possession of the Congressional party of Chili. then attempting revo- lution against the Republic, and of

hours after the flames were out before the fire compan nies stopped pouring wa ter on the smouldering ruins.
 One stream was kept busy at the rear of the building to protect the res idence of Mrs. Boggs. This was a small brick building and 1t was in great danger several times. The fur niture was moved out for fear that the house would catch on fire. Fortunate. ly 1t escaped with a slight scorching.
 The origin of the fire is unknown. A negro employe of the warehouse came running out of the storage department yelling fire. He did not know how the blaze originated. It is supposed. how ever. that some one threw a match or cigar stump near some lint cotton and that it was famed into flame by the stiff breeze blowing In at the open door.
 At present 1t is impossible to get list of the number of persons who had cotton In the warehouse. the number of bales each one had and the amount of insurance carried. The loss will be heavy, however, as a good many car ried no insurance whatever. By toe morrow an estimate of the losses of each individual can be given.

VERDICT FOR CAR COMPANY.
Peculiar Case Decided by Court in Mobile

Mobile. May 17.-(Special)-In the Circuit Court today in the case of Francis T. Pegkins ys. the Mobile Light and Railway Company, the jury returned verdict in favor of the de- ferdant company. The question in- Volved was the right of passenger to change from a trailer attached to 8 motor car to the motor car without paying an additional fare. Perkins was riding in trailer of the defen- dant company, and after paying his fare on the trailer climbed over to the motor car. where the conductor ap- piled for his fare. Perkins said he paid fare on the trailer and was informed that made no differences; he would either have to pay another fare, get back on the trailer or he would be placed under arrest. He submitted to arrest. but when brought to the police station it was decided not to place him on the docket. He sued the company for damages with the above result.
