GORMAN'S CANDIDACY

Senator German has evidently de-
cided not to wait the issue of the
Maryland election before deciding upon
his candidacy for presidential honors.
He is working this week as an avowed
candidate for the democratic nomina-
ton. His platform has been outlined,
the principal issues being opposition to
the Roosevelt policy In the matter of
appointing colored men to office in the
southern states and an appeal to cap
ital to oppose Roosevelts alleged radi-
cal disturbances of business conditions.
With German in the field on these
issues, Roosevelt has nothing to fear
Gormans candidacy on any platform
will never be acceptable to Bryan and
his followers. The issue raised as to
colored appointments in the south
would have no material effect as the
southern states are hopelessly demo-
cratic for years to come, and the issue
concerning an appeal to capital to de-
feat would only rally the people to
Roosevelts banner and elect him be-
yond question. The platform as an
nounced does not reflect great credit
upon the political sagacity of Senator
German.

America and Russia at Peace
(Globe Democrat0

No sensible American will get ex-
churian difficulty. The open ports
which the United States was promised
on October are not yet opened, and
may not be for some months. But they
will be opened eventually. Russia is
in Manchuria to stay, and the world
may as well look this fact straight in
the face. Russia will never get out of
that province unless she is put out by
force by some coalition of powers. The

The first electric railway line in the
northwest has been installed between
the city of Spokane and the Occur
d'Alene district. This is the pioneer
movement in a development that is
sure to be repaid in a county where
natural water power is as abundant as
it is here. 1t solves the transportation
problem for isolated sections where the
topography of the country makes steam
railways an expensive luxury. Lew
iston hopes soon to enter the field with
the opening of the Lewiston & South
eastern Electric railroad connecting
this point with Grangeville and Nez-
perez.

republican and democratic, are init
mating or declaring that the Roosevelt
administration is lax in not sending an
ultimatum to Russia on the evacuation
and the openport question. The ad-
ministration wisely disregards all this
wild talk. President Roosevelt and
| Secretary Hay have, in our dealings
with other nations, accomplished
good deal for the country in diplo-
matte way in the past few years. The
methods which have thus far sue
ceeded are the methods of civilization,
and they will not be abandoned. There
is some craftsmanship, of course, in the
democratic attacks on the president for
not threatening to declare war on Rus
STA unless she gets out of China at
once and throws the promised ports
open. The democrats are rather
pressed for something by which they
can assail the administra ton. No mi
nority party in the history of this coun-
try ever had so little just criticism
as the democrats have at this time
Therefore, they are resorting to the
illegitimate method of attack, in the
points. They will fail on all of them.
On the Manchurian question, as we'll
as on other foreign issues, the admin
istration has an intelligent and con-
sistent plan, which will be followed to
the end.
Let nobody imagine that a single
legitimate interest of the country will
be sighted by the Roosevelt admins
tration. Russia has made certain
promises to us in the way of opening
ports in Manchuria. Every one of |
them will be kept. The government in
Washington, as we'll as the government |
in st. Petersburg knows this. Russia |
is anxious to keep on the best possible
terms with the United States. The
United States feels in precisely the
same mood with regard to Russia.
Neither jealous rivals of both these
abroad nor domestic enemies
of the administration at Washington
will disturb the friendly relations be-
tween the two nations President
Roosevelt and Secretary Hay are in
dulging in no clustering. Not a
threat has been made officially by any
member of the administration against
Russia since the Manchurian issue
came up. None will be made. Wash
ngton and st. Petersburg understand
each other on that question. Every
which has ever been of

trade in Russia's new territory will be

masters of the situation.

Another Race Problem.

The Birmingham Age Herald
calls attention to the fact that the
only race problem in the south is
that stirred up and fermented by
political demagogues for their
own personal benht, and it also
calls attention to the fact there
is race problem which is going
to give the people Of this coun.
try trouble. On this score it says:
"The race problem in the south
is confined to demagogues and
politicians. Scarcely a Southern
state is troubled by it, and if the
demagogues would keep quiet
there would be no disquiet what
ever over the issues in the south.
At any rate it is deep and con-
plex problem calling for great
periods Of time and material
change or solution of it, and the
agitation Of it by demagogues
creates friction and discomfort
ment without advancing any
solution particle. What we need
is an elimination, not Of the negro
but of the demag0gues. We need
negro labor but we can spare the
demagogues, who are mostly
whites.
The only race problem in the
country has no color line in it.
1t relates to the immense emigra-
ton drawn from Italy and Eou-
mania and the Balkan provinces
of Russia and Hungary, and even
from Syria, Greece and Arabia.
These newcomers are not new
comeis are not Americans by q
long shot. They are drawn from
the least intelligent and progress

stay in the large cities of this
country to a considerable extent,

State and national issues, explain

CongressI nen and Senators should

favored a amendment to the tar

AN INSATlATE NAV.

A good deal has been said about
kin folks in this campaign, but the
half has not been told. Senator
Money is candidate for re.elec.
ton. He has been in Congress long
enough to draw nearly $3.50, 900,
including mileage, and not to
mention the salaries of his sons
who have been on the pay rolls
first and last. Mr.. Money is the
father'in~law Of Hon. w. S. Hill,
the member of Congress from the
Fourth District of Mississippi.
Mr.. Hill was long District Attor-
ney before he was elected to Con
gress. Money is first cousin to
Vardaman who is a candidate for
governor. Hills law partner, Mr..
Sisson, is candidate for District
Attornt y, the place formerly held
by Mr.. Hill. Sisson is related to
at least one of the above tribe.
Gov. LoDginO, SO far as this pa.
Eper knows, or believes, is not re-
lated to any State officer or to any
man who is running for an Office
in Mississippi. This is one of the
reasons, coupled with the magnfi
cent administration he has given
the State, why the people are GO
| ing to elect him to the United
States Senate. With Money re-
elected to the United States Sen.
ate, Hill in Congress, Sisson Dis
trict Attorney, and Vardaman
Governor, there would be an oil
carey to "beat the band" But
this is not all. 1t is reported that
Hill is to succeed Vardamau as
Governor and tiat Vardaman is
to succeeded Money as Senator
and that Sisson is to succeed Hill
in Congress. Delta Democrat.

Brave Women DUG Grave.

The same heroism that inspired
the women Of the Confederacy
has been recently shown by two
|daughters of DR.. Fisher. of Rich

from smallpox and blistered their
hands with spades and sh0vels in
order that little child might
have tender nursing and Chris

young officer, who lost his life

McClellan's army, and whose
burial, at which the service was
read by a woman, took place Just
across the Rapphand0ck river
from the spot where the Misses
Fisher assisted their father in the
burial of the little child who had
fallen victim to smallpox last
week.
It was in the family of Mr.. Dec

recently located near Welford's

dispute these days and what is the
result? We read in the press col
umns the next day of the murder
of a man, when perhaps not more
than 10 cents was involved as the
cause, or probably slight re.
mark in a political campaign, The
time is ON when the pistol toting
habit -one of the greatest of all
!evils-must be broken up and
kept down, for as it i good men
are forced to carry them to pro-
tect themselves from bodily harm
by hOOdlums and rOustabOuts who
are raised on pine top whiiky and
rim'fre cartridges and who lurk
around after the sun goes down to
carry out their motives from an
Ill feeling they have against you
and your welfare. If there was a
law to fine every man $500 or one
year in the penitentiary who was
caught with pistol on his per-
son, the manufacturers of the gun
would have to 60 out of business.
Men would settle their difficulties
without resorting to arms. Why
should the legislature look into
this matter and PASS such laws as
would best hinder the carrying of
concealed . weapons? Children
read of murders in all the daily
papers and it is becoming com,
mon reading matter to them, har-
dening their hearts and degrad-
ing their moral natures. There
