Early yesterday morning the de-
partment was called to the rear of
the Greek fruit and confectionery
store in the Windsor block, where a
blaze had started in the lean-to in the
court, used as am ice cream factory.
There was a half dozen freezers, and
quite an amount of extracts stored
therein, which were destroyed. The
lean-to was burned, and the window
easements and door above it were
quite badly scorched. The fire might
have been a bad one if it were not
for the prompt work of the fire de
partment. The damage will not eN-
coed 500. although the Greek when
questioned concerning his loss re-
piled that it amounted to $500.

"Negro Domination"

The republicans of Maryland are to be
congratulated on the promptness with
which they have accepted the democratic
challenge about negro domination" There
Is of course not the slightest reason for
raising such an issue In that state. The
whites outnumber the blacks as the statis-
tics show. four five to one. and have
always shaped the states affairs. But the
race cry is supposed to have more or less po-
tency in all of the old slave territory, and
1t is invariably uttered whenever a bit of
campaign material is badly needed.
If those who insist that the race issue
cannot be solved care to be convinced of
their error let them look at Maryland
There. as elsewhere. the negroes, as rule,
vote the republican ticket. But they do so
under a leadership which is altogether
worthy, and in that way they become at
the polls an instrument for good. White
men of the highest grade and character do
not feel themselves abased by accepting
the suffrage OF the negroes. and when in
power seeing that their rights are pre-
served. They abide by the law of the land
The result has been that one of the best
state governments Maryland has ever
known was voted into existence by the aid
OF the negroes; and in the national cam
credit was seriously menaced they were a
factor In the recording of the state in favor
of sound money. And In the two national
campaigns thousands of democrats in the
state voted the same way. and never felt
themselves injured by the association.
If the city of Baltimore were threatened
with destruction by fire, would the assist
ance of its negro population be refused on
the score of color? If the city were threat
ened with despoilment by a monster mob
would the authorities reject volunteers to
help save its wealth and beauty on the
score of color? If war with a foreign
power were declared. and a call to arms
laid the burden upon Maryland of putting
as her share hundred thousand men into
the field, would volunteers be rejected on
account of color? The answer to these
questions is as plain as pikestaf In all
three cases the direction of affairs would
be in the hands of competent white men
and all that would be necessary to get ex-
cellent service out of the negroes would be
capable and worthy leadership
Mr.. Williams whose nomination for gov
ernor was we'll received when made, is prov
ing himself TO be man of excellent iudg-
men; and courage. and is making a cam
paign on the race issue and all other issues
worthy of the best days of the common
wealth.
