His Views On the Face Question

Country Anxious.

washington. Special. l.-EI- Senator
James X. Jones. chairman OF the Dem
corSiic national executive committcpn
expressed his approval of the action
OF Senator German in making the race
issue the paramount question in the
maryland campaign. In speaking OF
the subject. Mr.. Jonla said: II think
that Senator German and his asso-
clateS who are Interested in Democra-
TIC success in the Maryland campairn
made no mistake in giving prominence
TO the race question, as DISTINGUISHED
by attitudes between the two parties
MI German is perfectly right i'm as
suminS that The race question is one of
the mcst important before the neonle
OF this country at this time. 1t is n
vital question and must. sooner or
later. he settled for all time. The
democratic party. according to reports
which have received from nerocrati,
ilchds and advisers there. certainly
has the better hand of the situation up
TO this time. l think the country at
large is anxious for a verdict unon thc
proposition. and the sooner II is sub
m!ttcd to the whole vote the hettc,.
FOR the Democrats of Maryland to win
next week viii. of course. give an i'm
pctUs to the matter all over tho ratio-
ana the general decision will not he
lcn& in coming forth. The fact that
the question has been passed forward
III tHc Maryland campaign means. OF
course, that the issue viii figure I, =
considerable extent in the national
cam palSn next year. 1t will certainly
be given prominence then. when the
republican and Democratic candidates
are brought before the people for q
SCicction. believe that the sentiment
OF the country is opposed to negro
DOMINATION and that no reasOnably
minded person believed in equality he
tween. or the amalgamation OF. tho
races. The white man was horn to
rule. and 1t shall ever be thus. There
can be no other outcome. I think the
state of Maryland will vindicate the
i ~. nocrat policy upon this question
ms In my opinion. will be followed
oy general Endorsement from the
county at large.
For MI. German and lis fellow
democrats to win in the fight in
maryland next week" continued MIR
Jones will. OF course. serve to adl
preStlge to the probability OF the Nary
rand Senator's choice for the Demo-
cratic presidential candidate next sum-
meT. No other logical outcome could
be expected
at present | do not believe. how
ever in deciding upon man for :he
nomination Let us get our national
platform together first. and then
choose a man TO fit that platform. Mr.
Horman. 1T Is needless for me to say.
IS In every way qualified for the Office.
Yet do not think it wise at this time
ior Democrats to fix upon a candidate
~ should be case of the best man for
ire platform, and no attempt should
DE made at this early day to arrive at
any conclusion as to a candidate"
