The readers of newspapers
will be kept in constant touch
with the political world from
now on. Both of the great par
ties are making claims that
sound to US like whistling to
keep up courage, but, in our
opinion the Democratic party is
getting in good fighting trim.

between now and November the

BLOODY SHIRT.

The nomination Of Henry u.
Davis Of West Virginia as the
vice presidential candidate for
the Democrats, is a thorn in the
flesh Of Stephen B. Elkins the
Republican leader Of that State.
Elkius is at present United
States Senator of that State, and
one of the principal leaders OF
the National Republican party,
and the nomination finds him IN
the embarrassing position of be-
inc forced to make an active
fight against his wife's father.
If Elkins loses West Virginia his
political career will have ended,
whether Davis is elected or not,
and as self preservation is one of
the first principles of human
nature. Elkins will do his best to
keep his aged father-in-law IN
private life. The campaign IN
that State has already opened
up, and in his speech to the
State convention Elkins said:
The Democracy of WestVirglnla
advocates the astounding propo-
sition should it come into power
in the State, to disfranchise
$4,000 loyal colored Republicans
and rob them from the rights OF
citizenship guaranteed by the
constitution, and for which
many of them and their fathers
fought in the war of the Union.
Here at the threshold Of the
contest, the son-in-lav Of our
vice presidential candidate: has
opened up the race issue, and
waved the bloody shirt, but to
our mind, Senator Elkins will
never save West Virginia by any
such appeal Now that the
Republicans themselves have
sprung the discussion of the
race question, we should like the
National committee to send
Senator Tillman into West Vlr-
ginia to stump that State. Ii
there is any apathy there, Joint
debates between Tillman and Ell
kins will awaken the people, and
we believe that Tillman is the
very man to send into that
: State.

Social Equality.
CAUSES GA5FEsr CHALLENGE
Social Equality.

Birmingham, Ala, Sept 26.-The
Republican campaign leaders IN thia
state are very sore at Capt Richmond
2. HObson, one Of the Democratic prea
idential electors at large, because %
his severe arraignment of President
Roosevelt and the latters administra-
ton in a speech at the Parker and
Davis rally here last Thursday night.
Capt. Hobson charged in effect that il
had been Roosevelt's persistent acr
tion in pushing the negro to the front
late among that race and had melted
numerous lynchings Of negroes by
whites. He pointed out that, begin.
ming with the Booker Warrington
dinner incident, a wave of crime had
followed every one Of these several
acts of Roosevelt in seeking to accord
the negro social recognition.
Hobson was very severe in his crit
icism of the president, and the Repub
! lican managers are SO incensed over IL
that they desire a chance to meet
E.m on the stump and answer him
| This is what inspired Prof. John T.
| Blakemore, manager of the Republican
campaign and one Of the nominees OF
| that party for presidential elector. to
| write to Capt Hobson the following
challenge:

Republican electors of the state OF

It is also said that efforts are be
ing put forth by the Republican leaders
tc get some big guns Of the party from
the north to come to Alabama to an
! swer Hobson's arguments and under.
! take to undo what the former naval
| officer is doing in political way. With
this end in view, it is said that Sec
retary of the Treasury Leslie M.
Shaw has already agreed to make a
date for a speech in Alabama, though
the exact time has not yet been fixed.
Hobson is taking very active par
in the campaign and is doing splendid
service for the Democratic ticket. He
will, it is expected, also visit some OF
| the doubtful northern and western
states and make speeches.
