PERDlCARIS RELEASED.
Bsndit Raisuli Gives Up the Wealthy American
Many hardships.

Tangier, (By Cable) Ion Per
dcaris, the wealthy American, and his
stcpson, Cromwell Varley, an English
man, who were captured by the bandit
Raisuli. have just arrived here.
Perdicaris is very much fatigued
after his long ride, but says he is glad
to get back. He is agreeably pleased
with the reception accorded him by
the townsmeu, who met him in great
numbers.
Perdicaris suffered many hardships
while in the hands of Rasul, although
he says he does not think that these
were the fault OF the bandit chief, and
that he had every comfort possible
under the circumstances.
Varlcy appears to be as cheerful and
bright as If he had just returned from
picnic. Both Perdicaris and Varley
are much thinner, especially the
former, who has aged considerably

house by the authorities, the ad-
miras OF the fleets and numerous
personal friends. His Moorish serv-

clothes.
Much credit is due to the two
Shereefs OF Wazan. Mula Ali and
Mula Hamet. who have devoted much
time in their efforts to secure the
success of the negotiations. Mulai
Ali remained at Raisuli's camp con-
tinuously, thus ensuring the safety of
the lives Of the captives, while Mula
Hamet travelled back and forth be-
tween Tangier and Benairos.
Mulai Hamet says that he arrived
at the camp OF Zelal, governor of the
Benz NJ Sara tribe, AT 3 o'clock on June
2.I, but that the captives did not ar.
rive until the morning of June ~
Nothing unusual occurred duzilg the
exchange of the prisoners, who started
Immediately fort heir respective homes
The delay in turning over the prison
ers was apparently merely a mistake
as TO the date set for their release.

ADVICE TO THE SOUTH.


Congressman T. w. Hard
wick, of the Tenth Georgia dis
trict, a few days ago wrote a
letter to United States Senator
A. O. Bacon asking his views
on the present political situa-
ton. Senator Bacon replies at
length.
The Senator says there is an
effort to Republicanize the
South. He declares that white
supremacy must be maintained
in the South and everywhere:
that the prosperity of the South
is due to white supremacy. The
Senator advocates the repeal of
the Fifteenth Amendment and
insists that unless this is done
the people of the South will be
forced to maintain their propo-
sition of white supremacy.
Continuing, he says
IF there were nothing else
of which to boast, if this were
the sole achievement of the
Democratic party in the South,
the great work which it accom-
plished in rescuing the South
from a fate worse than anarchy
would earn for it the undying
gratitude and appreciation of
all those in the world who
value and prize civilization and
all it's attendant blessings. And
there are none who should be
more grateful to the Democra-
tic party for this tim than Re-
publican party of the North be
cause the Democrats in thus
saving the civilization of the
South, at the same time also
saved the Republican party
from the deep damnation
which would have been ad
judged against them through
all the ages if they had succeed
ed i'm the effort which they
made to convert this whole
Southland into the dissolution
of another Haiti"
The Senator states that the
two most important office in
Georgia under the executive
department, the cOllectorships
at Savannah and Atlanta, are
held by negroes; that the most
important office in the eXecu-
tive department in Washington
held by any one appointed from
Georgia is that of Register of
the Treasury, held by negro.
He summarizes his whole
proposition with the question
"Shall we above all other
things stand for white supre-
macy 2" The Senator empha-
sizes his view by citing the
fact that in 1865 the negroes i'm
the United States numbered
1000, 900; that in 1905 they will
number more than 10000, 900;
that there are children now
born who will in their day see
more than thirty millions of
negroes here.
Rather than have negro rule
Senator Bacon is willing to
accept a reduction of Southern
representation i'm Congress. He
says:
"The repeal of the fifteenth
amendment, leaving TO each
State the power to regulate for
itself the negro question, would
destroy the sectional barrier
which the South so greatly
deplores, and for the removal
of which it knows no other
method. Until this amendment
is repealed the menace which
must ever accompany it will re-
quire that the white men of the
South should stand together
upon the issue of white SUI
premacy, the opposition to
negro rule and negro office
holding. 1t is within the power
of the Republican party, if it
desires to do so, to repeal the
fifteenth amendment within
the next three months by secur-
ing necessary action by Con-
gress and the ratification by
the requisite number of State
Legislatures"

CONGRESSIONAL CONTESTS!

The political advisers of Will
liam II. Jackson met in Balti-
more one day this week to en-
deavor to work the old man up
to the point of contesting the
election of Hon. Thomas \.
Smith to his seat in Congress.
That some of the Worcester Re-
publicans were present goes
with out saying. 1t is necessary
for them to make their excuses,
for they are the sorest lot of the
bunch. They promised Mr..
Jackson great things in Wor-
cester. and they fell down with
deep, dull thud, and their
Uncle Williams money made a
poor showing, for the simple
reason that it went down deep
into the pockets of some of his
worthy henchmen.
Mr.. Jackson should know by
this time that the Chairman of
the Republican party of Wor-
cester County is a rainbow
chaser of the most ardent kind
and that his policy has been to
"claim everything Mr.. Jack
son probably realizes that he is
in the hands of lawyers who
want a job. A good, fat fee for
contesting an election is great
inspiration for the patriots.
We hear a great deal of what
the Republicans have been tell
ing about the election in Wor-
cester County, and about sixty
ballots thrown out in Snow Hill
district because they were not
voted according to law, but we
have not seen the statement
coming from them that the Re-
publican Officials in Snow Hill
District declared in the pres
ence of several witnesses on
the night of the election that
everything had gone along
peaceably and quietly, and the
election was as fair as one could
have been. They declined to
sign the protest sent them by
the Republican leader, and one
openly declared that he was
not going to perjure himself
even if it would be to the in
terest of his party. And now
comes the story that in Berlin
there were Jim Crow polling
booths. All of which is false.
and from Pocomoke some of
the ballots were not marked to
suit the Republicans.
If Mr.. Jackson wants to con-
test this county, the Democrats
will insist upon the ballot box
es being opened. BY so doing
we fully expect to reduce Mr..
Jackson's vote.
Mr.. Smiths majority in Wor-
roster County is larger than
the returns show.
