SOUTH CAROLINA ATTITUDE.
Prominent Republican Speaks on
Status of Negro in Politics..

Charleston, 5. c., October 16.-In
view of the action of the republican
party in Alabama and North Carolina,
upon the negro question, n the hold
ing Of republican convention this week
in the congressional districts in this
state, Captain John @. Capers, United
States district attorney and republi-
can national committeeman for South
Carolina, was asked today what was
the position of the republican party in
this state upon the negro question. He
said:
'The organization and operation of
political parties upon purely racial
classification, is to my mind, wholly in
consistent with the spirit of our gov
eminent, requiring, as our government
does, well defined duties and response
bilities from all of it's citizens. In the
exercise of citizenship, when the negro
asserts a right and demonstrates that
it rests upon intelligence and character
rather than upon race prejudice or
fancied and unearned distinction, his
rights should be respected as an Amer
lean citizen regardless of his color.
In politics the negro's trouble in the
south comes in a large measure from
h advice he receives from his north
ern colored brother who ruins the effect
of a protest against a white mans
party in the south, by a practical de-
mand for a black mans party. There
is no good reason why the republican
party i'm the south hould be all white,
and there is every reason why it should
not be all black"

speech in the opera house here tonight
to an audience Of 700 people. 1t was
his first appearance before a Goldsboro
audience and he made a most favorable
impression. His form as an orator had
preceded him and the generous ap-
plause which greeted every climax In
his eloquent Grafton is ample proof that
he fully sustained his enviable reputa-
ton as the leading speaker in the pres
ent campaign.
He made bou the same speech which
he had delivered at other points In the
state and his audience was somewhat
familiar with his subjects, but the cold
character in the newspapers which had
conveyed his thoughts, did not repre-
sen the handsome appearance which
he makes or the graceful gestures. the
fervid eloquence, the ornate descr1p-
ton, or the warmth of feeling
with which the speech was delivered.
His effort tonight not only endeared
him to the hearts OF GoIdsbOro people.

APPROVES OF PLAN
President Mitchell FavOrS
Adoption Of Means for
Ending Strike.

Wilkesbarre, October 16.-From the
time the news from Washington was
received late last night until about 10
o'clock this morning, there vas some
doubt as to how the miners would re-
ceive the modified plan. President
Mitchell was asked to make some eX-
preston on the proposition, but he
s~teadfastly refused. He was pressed
by the correspondents for a statement
and finally at 10 O'Clock he cleared up
the situation by issuing the following:
W~ilkesbarre. Pa, October 16.
"Appreciating the anxiety and impa-
tience of the public and the mine work
crs for some authoritative statement
from this office, [ issue this bulletin
to say that I was unalterably opposed
to the acceptance in the form of settle
ment proposed by the coal operators,
because it restricted the president of
the United States in making selection
of the men who were to determine the
questions involved in the o strike.
These restrictions having been re-
moved and representation given to or
ganized labor, as we'll as to organized
SdpIIdl, Il III " plSpdl GU W SlNS my
personal approval to a settlement of
the issue involved in this strike by the
commission selected by the president,
and shall recommend to the executive
officers OF districts 1, Z and 8, in their
meeting today, that an immediate call
be issued for Il convention, whose au-
~thorization is necessary to declare the
strike at an end.
In the meantime 1 trust that the peo-
pie of our country will be as patient
as possible as we are moving as rapid
ly as the interests of our people will
permit.
(Signed) JOHN MITCHELL.
President u. NJ. w. of A.
When this was IA to the arriving
district leaders and groups of miners
VINO came to headquarters to learn the
news, general satisfaction was express
I'd that Mr.. Mitchell was willing 10
accept the modified plan, and from that
time on there was no doubt that the
strike would be brought to a speedy
close. 1t was not until 2 O'Clock that
the thirty-seven members of the three
districts boards were called in session
which lasted two hours and fifteen
minutes.
There was some opposition manifest
ed in the meeting against certain e
lures of the plan, but after a full dis
cussion of the Objectionable parts, a
unanimous vote was taken to recon-
mend the convention the acceptance Of
the proposition. AS the conference was
held behind closed doors n a bon of
secrecy was placed on every man pres
ent, the specific objections were not
officially announced. These are the
same executive boards which on May
Sth last. ordered the strike to begin,
which action was approved, in the face
of Mr.. Mitchell's opposition, by the
HaZelton convention a few days later.
1t is expected that some objections will
be raised on the floor of the conven-
ton, but the officers are confident that
the opposition will disappear when
President Mitchell explains all the fear
lures of the modified proposition to the
delegates.
