SWALLOW AND
CARROLL NOTIFIED.
Our Splendid Leaders are formally APP
prised that they have been chosen
to lead the fight. DR.. Swallow
will take the stump.


Correspondence. - Pro h bitionists
from a dozen states gathered here to-
day to notify Swallow and Carroll of
their nomination for President and
Vice President The gathering took
place in great Tomlinson Hall, where
the National Convention was held.
The weather was perfect, the feeling
good and the candidates were received
with much enthusiasm. DR.. Swallow
is more than popular, he is greatly be-
loved; and when he delivered his
speech of acceptance, brave and true
in tone, the people were drawn to
him more than ever. This document
demonstrates political foresight and
wisdom and will win thousands Of
temperance Democrats and Populists
of the West to the Prohibition party.
DR.. Swallow is man of the people,
who believes in fighting all that is
wrong and he therefore stands in his
life record for sweeping political re-
form. He is good political leader
and is sure to grow in strength with
the masses as the campaign goes on.
He reported his wife somewhat bet
ter, but in such poor health that he
will find it difficult to leave her for
any length of time during the cam
paign. He expects, however, to make
a number Of speeches and visit many
states in the fall.
Mr.. Carroll represents the business
interests of the country He is plain
and most successful business man and
is declared to be the best citizen in
Texas. He is not a public speaker.
His letter of acceptance was brief and
to the point. The Prohibition party
may well be proud of it's candidates
this year. They make strong ticket.
National Chairman Stewart presid-
ed. Wolfenbarger Of Nebraska never
made better speech than this after
noon, when he notified DR.. Swallow of
his nomination. Castle, of Pennsyl
vania, is always popular, but in his
splendid Grafton exceeded even his
brilliant past. The speeches occupied
most of the afternoon. A band enliv-
ened the proceedings. The National
Executive Committee had two ses-
sions. Plans for the campaign were
discussed. The best thing of the day
was the wfping out of all differences.
This will result in absolute peace and
harmony during the campaign and will
cause thanksgiving in every Prohibi-
ton home in the land.
At night there was another good
audience In Tomlinson Hall. It was a
splendid ratification meeting. Mr..
Stewart presided. The speeches were
short, crisp and good. Among the
speakers were A. A. Stevens, of Penn
sylvania, F. T. McWhirter, of Indiana,
J. B. Cranfill and Cyclone" Davis, Of
Texas, F. ]. Sibley, Of Arizona, DR.. D..
G. John, of Wisconsin, and DR.. Swal-
low. 1t was feast and fittingly
closed this great day for the Prohibi-
tion party.

On Monday a sensational dispatch
was published at st. Petersburg to the
effect that Japan, China and Korea
have formed a triple alliance against
Russia.
1t is reported that the Russians at
Port Arthur are demoralized. Several
officers have committed suicide, and
fifty men were shot for attempted de.
sertion. Food is very scarce and the
cold ia terrible.
Sixteen thousand Japanese troops
are reported to have advanced from
Ping Yang, and now are north of
Chong Chang river within three days

Russians retreated before the Japanese
advance, but battle is expected the

An innocent Negro Served Sentence

Gov. Hayward yesterday perdoned

murder op the public square in Barn.

The pardon was the result of q death

Marshal Owens, and it Ia likely that
but for this justice would never have
come to the negro, although several
responsible white men saw Owens fire
the fatal shot.
The account of the killing is given in

dorsement of Nix's petition for pardon.
This le peculiar case of the pun.

was white man who kept secret his
Ofense until on his death bed, when
other white men of position and un-

corroborated the statement of the
guilty man now dead.
"AG the time of the conviction I had
no doubt Of the guilt of the defendant,

ing in reckless firing on the streets.
Me-, hSEe7or. knowing well the char
acter OF the men making affidavits for
the pardon and bearing talk by others
who saw Owens, the town marshal, fire
the fatal shot, l am convinced beyond
the shadow of doubt that Nix was
not responsible for the death of the
slain, and inasmuch as he and Owens,
the self confessed murderer, were not
acting in concert, Nix is guilty neither

The Veterans Denounce Lynching.

Memphis, Tenn, March 2O.-A
special to The Commercial.Appeal
from Grenada, Miss, says:
An anti-lynohing crusade has been
inaugurated by the w. R. Barksdale
camp, United Confederate Veterans,
of this city. The following signif
can't resolutions were adopted at q
largely attended meeting Of the camp:
First. That we are unalterably op-
posed to the lynohiDg Of human be-
ing, save perhaps for the one unmen-
tionsble crime.
Second. That as Confederate vete.
rams and law-abiding citizens Of Mis-
sissippi and of the United States, we
are violently, ,vehemently aud eternally
opposed to the practice of burning q
human being for any crime whatsoever.
Third. That we appeal in thunder.
ing tones to eli Confederate veterans,
their wives and daughters. and to the
great and glorious organization, the
Daughters of the Confederacy, one
and all, to arise in their might, and
by precept and example, voice and
pen, moral force and influence, help
to put stop to this diabolical, bar
bario, unlawful, inhumsn and ungodly
crime Of burning human beings.
Fourth. That we heartily approve
Of and applaud the action Of Gov.
Vardaman in his recent successful ef-
forts to save criminal from mob
bent on burning.

TRADE OUTLOOK UNCERTAIN

: The business outlook has become UNI
certain during the past week it is
impossible to forecast future trade
conditions with any accuracy. This
unsatisfactory state of affairs is due
wholly to the complications in Europe
and Asia. 1t is easy enough to see
that If a general war breaks out among
the great European and Asiatic la
tions and this country keeps out OIL
h hostilities there will be an enorm
Gus call upon us for all sorts of army
and navy supplies. which Will produce
abnormal business activity n high
prices throughout the country; but if,
unfortunately, the United States should
b. drawn into the conflict there is no
knowing what may happen in a com
mercial way. Everybody sees this, for
the handwriting on the wall is plair
possibility of knowing just what thi ;
country will feel itself called upon Il
do creates a feeling of doubt and I'M
certainty that has already affected the
speculative markets and may soon af-
feet general trade itself.
At present, however. we are gaining
rather than losing by the Russo-Jap-
enese war and its concomitant disor-
ders. Both countries are ordering
goods from US, especially on the Pa
cihc coast, and h prospects of a strife
lasting some months has led to sharp
advances in the cereals. but the de-
pressed condition of the foreign bourses
on which International securities OF
every kin have been declining, has
cast a damper on our own stock mar
ket. Money has thus far escaped ser
ious stringency, but 1t Is slowly har-
dening in Europe. Speculation in
stocks and bonds has fallen to a low
ebb, both here and abroad. as is quite
natural under the circumstances. No
body wants the bonds of a nation
plunged into a devastating wal unless
the standing and power of that nation
are so high and p~uissant that its con-
tinued prosperous existence after thu
war;, no matter how 1t results, is prac-
tically assured, n ever the bonds
of such nations do not tempt invest
ors.

weakened, while Russian and japanese
issues have declined daily and Bulgar-
ian bonds have been unstable. The
Europe have felt the strain of uncer-
tainty and have reported business light
and extremely sensitive to every vague
rumor. Wall street stocks have come
to a standstill and the whole arena of
stock speculation, both in this country
and abroad, reflects the hesitating and
dubious signs of the times.
Though this country is thus far COM
paratively free from any prospect of
foreign ENGAGEMENT there is little
doubt that If the present complications
were confined to Russia and Japan
business would be much better than it
is. Our crop prospects are good, our
produce excellent, our national treas
ury amply supplied with gold reserves
and our banks carrying large amounts
of cash. Our foreign trade. while
more or less affected one way or the
other by the war, Is of large volume

comparatively high prices. Collections
are reported good all over the country

and confidence pervades all classes of
