wins Favored jerome.
OF the thirty-seven members of the
executive committee a dozen were in
favor of Mr. Jerome, and insisted that
he should be renominated for the Office
which he now holds. The balance of
the committee was bitterly opposed to
his candidacy. AS no satisfactory ar
rangement could be arrived at a mes
sage was sent to William WINS, the
nominee for mayor, inviting him TO ap-
pear before the committee and express
his views. Mr.. WINS made a long
speech in favor of District Attorney
jerome, saying that he was very anx-
ious for the selection of Mr.. Jerome as
his running mate in the campaign.
Did Not Want to Dictate.
1t would afford him great personal
qualification, he said, but even so, he
added he did not wish the members
TO feel that his personal feelings should
rule, and he would be willing to abide
by their vote. Several other members
spoke in favor of Mr.. jerome. Among
these was Chairman Halpin, who urged
that Mr.. jerome should be selected. a
vote was taken on the proposition and
il resulted in tWenty-seVen TO eight
against Mr. Jerome's nomination.

On the call for nominations in the
county conventions for district attor-
ney, Charles A. Flammer was placed
in nomination by Abraham Gruber. The
mention as a candidate Of William

the convention in an uproar, but when
the roll was called Jerome received only
nine votes against 257 for Flammer.

Destruction Was Total.

colonnade entrance surmounted by a
half-dOzen angelic figures. which stood
out spectre-like against the gloom OF
the night.
How the fire started is a mystery,
which viii perhaps remain unsolved
The flames were first seen by a youth
who was walking near the ruined build
ing. He Immediately turned i'm the fire
alarm. which summoned the exposition
and city fire departments to the scene
The secret service agents are working
on the theory that fire was of incen-
diary origin, and that it started among

just in the rear of the building awaiting
the period Of dlsmantling Of the Mis-

formal closing Of the exposition tomor-
row night.
Probable Origin.
The superintendent OF the building
Ed c. Crumbaugh of Columbia. No, the
only person within the structure at the
time of the fire. has another and more
probable theory. He stated TO the AS
sOciatCd Press after the CONFEDERATION
that when he discovered the fire. the
wall of the building at the base of the
dome and between the kitchen and the
dining room was a mass of flame but
he is positive that there was no fire
nearer than fifteen feet Of the main
floor. Crumbaugh is Of the opinion
that the fire had its origin in the same
faulty electrical construction which has
been the case OF the several ineipient
blazes which have occurred in different
buildings during the fair Three-quar-
tiers of an hour after the first alarm
was sounded the Missouri building was
in ruins. That the flames did not
spread TO some of the adjoining build
ings was dIe TO the almost complete
absence of wind. and TO the marvellous
work of the fireme1 who fought the
fire desperately TO save adjacent ex-
hibit palaces.

With % disrepect TO him we beg
leave to state thai Mr. Stuart hasn't
been in the Republican Party long

two Republican blsllots and one of these
was in municipal election. In the

also an inside history to the DR.. CRUM

United States, the Congress . of the

for the white southsrners, why should
we not be permitted to throw few bou-
quets upon the deserving ones Of the

Dr.. HARVEY JOHNSON AND THE
SOUTHERN WHITE FOLKS.

Rev. HARVEY JOHNSON, D. D., OF
Baltimore, Maryland sends us another
communication which we publish in.
this issue. He labors under the i'm
preston that we have been apologizing
for the lynchers, the white cappers, -
''white leaguers" etc., when as a mat
ter of fact. we have bitterly opposed
them and their sympathizers.
On the other hand, we have com.
plended the liberal minded white men
who were opposed to such lawless or
CARNATIONS and who were using their
best efforts to wipe out such outrage
Gus practices IS have disgraced this sec.
ton for nearly half century.
No one can cite an utserance, or spec-
lily a lire emanating from the writer
shat gave the shadow of an excuse for
the charge that we have been condor.
ing crime or apologizing for the muir
derers who committed it. We are looking
for results and it matters little to us
whether the white man who saves a
Negroes life is an ad mirer of the race
or simply an advoca te OF justice.
If we are TO expect the majority Of
white people Of the Southland to sud.
denly become humanitarians and Ne.
gro-lovers, we deceive ourselves. They
may be willing to deal out fair-play
and mete justice to a Negro while on
the other hand. they would be equally
DESTROYS of placing the length of a..
side walk between themselves and
the beneficiary of their efforts.
The question then is, should we con-
denim all of the white people in the
southern states because the majority of
therl either commit or condone out
RACES upon oolored people? Rev. DR..
JOHNSON in his previous communities
ton virtually answers, EYES," asking
who are the good white people of this
section. and where may he expect TO
find them?
We answered, No and cited the fact
that this was the very policy that the
Negro-haters had adopted in dealing
with us.
Should those white people who con-
denim crime in ell Of its forms, includ
ing those outrayes against the Negroes
be commended for their efforts? Should
they be encouraged when they adopt
drastic measures to punish the lynchers,
"white cappers" and white leaguers"
and be encouraged in their crusades
against them?
We answer, Yes. Rev. DR.. JOHNSON
answers, ono"
Rev. DIR, JOHNSON calls upon the
good white people of the South to put
down the lawless practices in their Sec
ton, and when they do so, he criticizes
the man who commends them for so
doing. He then proceeds to argue in a
circle with the point Of discussion in
the centre of the same.
The result is that he is no nearer a
onclusion at the finish than he was at
the start.
