JUDGE cArrEr's VIEWS.
He Comments on State of Politics and Tells of Motives That Induced
 Him lto Run for Governor.

AAnA to nun tOh oSVSA
 Birmingham Age-HeraId.
 Judge A. E Caffee's announcement that he is . candidate for Governor IS natur. ally the subject of much comment. but his friends declare 1t is what they have pee been urging him to do all ai1nE ,n1n. lie Srs was ing the day from friends in various sec ttone of the State wishing him success In his campaign and assuring him or sup port
 It is understood that the anti-Jelks fac ton has determine1 to call conference in Montgomery, at which fuli ucket will be put in the field and supmit.eo .o the primaries If the Democratic Execu- tive Committee decides in favor or pri- maries.
 Regarding this proposed conference, Judge Caffee saids in an interview last night:
 My claim Is that there Is no practical difference between the objections 10 convention and the objections to a con ference, for both bodies may be manipu. lated in the interest of few men, ana the people would not have their choice or officers. but would be tied down to cast their votes for candidates selected Dy conference or convention that may have been healed by the best traders and
 '.1'his is the cause of my candidacy. I simply want to vindicate the truth. hon esty and sincerity of the fight l have made for the people in The ,s nsonIs te
 
 secure their choice of candidates, and that is to give them chance to vote for them in primary. This same argument applies to honest elections"
 Judge Caffee stated further that he had understood that the rumored intention of calling a conference had deterred Colo iiel Quarles from announcing for Gov ernor. Continuing on the subject of the conference, he said:
 ''It may be that this conference will prove a useless affair, as I have heard from reliable sources that the State Ex- ecutive Committee will not act on the primary question until the last of Sep tember and then they will call a straight old-fashioned convention. If this desper- ate game is played by the politicians, 1t is my honest belief that the people of Alabama will rebel against the authority of this party and political warfare will ensue with Democrat arrayed against Democrat,
 Any candidate who wants to be Gov error ought to be willing to go before primaries of the people. They are the only means of securing absolutely fair and honest elections. As I say, I have been for primary from the start and my candidacy Is but a vindication of the posi- ton I have maintained through the col un ns of The Alabanisn."
 Judge A. D. Caffee will leave tomorrow morning for Shelby Springs to be gone for three or four days.

The oleomargarine bill was a queer bit of legislation, but it's interpretation and enforcement bid fair to discount any thing in the bill itself. For example. if man colors oleomargarine so as to re- semble butter, he must pay a tax of ten cents pound. He can color butter as highly as he chooses without being sub ject to the tax, but If he mixes colored pure butter with the oleomargarine the ten cents a pound tax hits him again There is likely to be as much mixing in the law as there is in the butter com pounds.

The Tilden Club Meeting.

Brooklyn Eagle.
 The main speeches were made by Grover Cleveland and David B. Hill. Each spoke after his kind. The first approved himself to be the political philosopher and the second the prosecuting attorney of the Democratic Party. Mir. Cleveland showed his remarkable power of generalization, with his apt art of dissecting out the one issue which is to him not only convic- tion. but a passion. MT. Hill, on the other hand. ploWed the whole field of issues and went to the limit of partisanship. The words strong, broad and candid came to the mind as MT Cleveland spoke that moved in the thought of all as defi- uitions while MT. Hill was talking. Each may be regarded as characteristic-Mr Cleveland with the telescopic and MT. Hill with the microscopic vision.

Some of his enemies are fond of ale luding to the ''ponderous phrases" of Mir. Cleveland. apparently oblivious of the fact that these same expressions al- ways mean something. For words of learned length and laundering sound' which have neither meaning nor influence the ex-President has little use. Some of his most prominent critics might initiate him in this respect with decided advant- age

votion of the old-fashioned kind.

FLYING JORDANS
UNDER NEW NAME.

Leon Alooser. who came here last sum
mer as advance agent for the Flying
Jordans. has been in Manila, where he
was arranging for dates for the Baroufs-
Iii circus. The Flying Jordans evidently
are trying to achieve fame under d new
name. The Manila Times says:
NJ. Leon Mooser is at present in town
and is making arrangements for the
forthcoming visit to this city of the Ba-
roufski Circus and Variety Company, of
which he is the advance agent
It is stated that the company Is a
strong one, comprising some 100 artists
and artistes, among whom are no less
than % ballet dancers. The company
achieved considerable success in the
Muscovite capital and in other cities OF
Russia: and undoubtedly the visit of an
efficient and up-to-date company, as the
present one is said 10 be, VIII De great
ly appreciated by the Manila public. This
is the first tour of the company outside
OF Russia.

CHINESE TO ORGANIZE A
CONFUCIUS ASSOCIATION
Young Men of the Colony Will Study the
Teachings of the Great Philosopher
Backed by Wealth.

The young reformers among the Chi
nese OF Honolulu yesterday effected
the preliminary organization of the
Confueius Religious Society, about a
hundred Chinese being present The
meeting was held in the rooms of the
Chinese United Society on King
street, Mr.. Ng Fawn being chosen tenn
porary chairman, whose duty it will be
to extend general invitation to all
Chinese here to associate themselves
with the movement. When sufficient
numbers are enrolled another meeting
Will be held, when the society will be
organized on a permanent basis and
the study of the teachings of the great
Chinese philosopher Will commence
Yesterdays meeting was enthusiastic,
and about a dozen orators spoke in
favor of all Chinese learning more of
the philosophy of Confucius, which was
at low ebb in the Hawaiian Islands.
1t was stated that in China the youths
of the empire who went to school
learned the rudiments of the philoso-
piers teachings, but in the Hawaiian
Islands little had been done to con-
lluue diOIlS the lines ldlQ
down by Confucius. At the conclusion
of; the discussion it was decided that
an invitation should be generally ex.
tended to the Chinese young men to
enter the proposed society
A large number of wealthy Chinese
are behind the movement, and will aid
the organization with their means and
influence. In order to bring the matter
publicly to the attention of the Chi
nese community, the hackers of the
organization have arranged with the
publishers Of the Sun Chock Kwong
