GREAT BALTIMORE FIRE.

Nineteen hundred four is making a
startling record for terrible Calamities.
Many fatal railroad wrecks occurred
during the first month. which was ush.
cred in following the most narrowing
theater holocaust in the history OF
America, and now comes the fire in the
city of Baltimore. In magnitude it ex
ceeds the great Chicago fire of 1871; in
loss of life it does not compare.
The latest reports from Baltimore
place the losses at perhaps a third
more than the Chicago fire. or about
$500, 900, 900. Acres of ground were
burned over and hundreds upon hun,
dreds of buildings destroyed. Fire,
proof buildings went down like they
were made of finder and blocks melt
ed away almost in the t%winkling of an
eye. The stupendous loss will appalI
the people of the entire world.
To the finite mind three hundred
millions is almost beyond conception
To grasp the magnitude of the sun
citizen of Wyoming may multiply the
assessed valuation of his state by sew
en- and then have some to spare. 1t
would take 100 cities the size of Lara.
ME to replace the loss.
Approximately. Baltimore has three
quarters of a million inhabitants and
was one of the finest cities on the
globe
The great Chicago fire occurred in
October. 1871. 1t burned $4,000 houses,
extending yer more than 1000 acres
of ground. Two hundred persons per
ished in the flames and nearly one hun
dred thousand We're rendered home.
less. The property burned was esti.
mated at 5000. 900. 900. This stupen-
dous calamity awakened the sympathy
of the entire world. Great Britain and
other countries subscribed freely to
the sufferers. The city was rebuilt in
a style Of great solidity and magnif,
cence within two years.
Baltimore will rise from its ashes
and will be more glorious than eveI
before. 1t will have an opportunity tc
build everything upon modern plans
1t will take years to replace the thou
sands of buildings swept away. but the
skill and the energy of man will in the
end conquer.
Meanwhile the people of America
are bowed down in sorrow.

New Orleans, La. Feb. 9.-Colonel
Henry Watterson spent yesterday here
en- route to Florida. When asked who
he believed would be the democratic
nominee for president, he replied:
q am personally in favor Of Sena-
tor German. but any good democrat of
character and standing will suit me. I
do not expect to be a member Of the
nominating convention"
What of Mr.. Hearst's candidacy
Mr.. Hearst is a master of the art of
advertising his properties. l take it
his candidacy has no other serious
meaning.
Mr.. Hearst may be fairly described
as a figure of speech. He is personally
unknown to any constituency. He has
never had the least training or expert
eDCe in public affairs. He is a rich
man. able to employ others. but no
one knows whether he can write or
speak himself. Though he has a seat
III tOuSIeSS lie IS d stranger 10 tue
house. and will probably remain a
stranger, the very one of his voice
unknown to his colleagues. The
Hearst boom. as it is called, is simply
a barrel with a dollar at one end. and
the picture of Mr.. Bryan at the other.
OF course it is likely to make a great
noise. | do not think hat it will cut
any real figure in the national conven-
ton. when that convention gets down
to a ballot.
IF the democrats nominate a strong,
conservative man (there are many
SUCH. Mr.. German, Judge Gray, Judge
Parker, Mr.. Olney, nor should the two
young mayors of Chicago and New
York. Carter Harrison and George B.
Mcclellan, be left out of the account

election"
