FLORA SUSTAINED
Big Loss BY FIRE

Jackson, November ia portion
of the business district of Flora. eight
cen miles north of here, on the Y. &
NJ. v. road, was destroyed by fire yes
terday.
Four business houses, large lum-
Der yard, three cotton seed ware
houses, and several small frame struc-
lures, were swept away by the flames.
The confiagration started shortly af-
ter midnight, and for a while it looked
like the entire business district of the
town was doomed, owing to lack of
fire-fighting facilities.
A telephone message was sent to
the Jackson fire department asking
that assistance be sent to the scene,
and. special train was standing in
readiness to carry two engines and a
corps of firemen to the scene, when
word was received that the volunteer
bucket brigade had managed to get
the blaze under control.
The total loss is estimated at from
$4,000 to $4,000, partly covered by
insurance. Nearly all the policies
were written by underwriting agencies
in Jackson. The principal buildings
destroyed were as follows:
Hammack & Mcdowell, general
store.
DR.. F. ]. Jiggits, drug store.
Sebulski Brothers, general store.
Hawkins Brothers, general store.
Martins lumber yard.
The three seed houses were owned
by the oil mills of Jackson and Yazoo
City, and located ON the Y. G M. ".
right-of-way. Neither these houses or
their contents were covered by insur-
ance
Two of the four large business
houses were frame structures. Sebul-
ski Brothers carried stock valued at
fully $4,000.

The South with it's $50 or more un-
pledged electors could dictate terms
and secure by political manipulation
what it might take centuries to ac-
complish in the ordinary course of
events.
The plan is not bad one. We are
all agreed that the repeal of the Fiji
teenth Amendment would be worth
more to the South than all of tie
political achievements in a generation
and the vardaman idea may yet point
the ultimate solution of problem that
has baffled the. craftsmanship of the

WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER II.
The Murder of
Senator Carmack.

The whole country was shocked yes
terday morning 10 learn that Senator
Edward w. Carmack, of Tennessee,
had been killed in what was termed
street duel but which may prove
to have been a diabolical assassina-
ton. Indeed there are many facts
that point to the belief that Col. Dun
can B. Cooper and his son Robin ].
Cooper, awaited themselves II the
first opportunity to put the ex-sena-
tor out of the way.
The fact that the Coopers saw him
when he was smilingly meeting lady
friend and that they called to him
not to hide behind lady, shows that
the Coopers were waiting for him
with murder in their hearts, well pre-
pared to do their bloody work.
Sdh dHyOhS DellSNS loI uOmeuI
that Senator Carmack, meeting lady
friend, and lifting his hat to her, had
any idea of shooting the Coopers?
Such proceeding would be contrary
to his well known chivalrous nature,
for Senator Carmack was a gentleman
of the old school, and if the pub
lished reports are true, he only at
tempted to defend himself. He was
not the manner of man to do other
wise in the presence of ladies'.
1t appears that he was the victim
of a corrupt political machine whose
exposure burned like hot iron into the
souls of the gang" They knew he
was not afraid-they would not meet
him man-to-man, and in his very death
he exemplifed his bravery by wound
ing one of his antagonists.
1t is true that Senator Carmack al
ways expressed himself in vigorous
language, but in the article complained
of there was nothing that would war
rant his murder. The article was sar-
castle, but it was not abusive, and
even if it had been, the Coopers had
ample recourse through the law.
Senator Carmack was one of the
great men OF the South. He was loyal
to its every interest and his speeches
In both houses of congress won him
national fame. He was man of de-
cided convictions and was not afraid
to express them. AS an editor, he
ranked among the highest of his pro-
fession and he was never daunted or
made afraid by the threats and coarse
innuendoes that were hurled about his
head. Where duty pointed the way
he went, regardless of the eonse-
quences. He was a moral man and
advocated moral ideas and in this re-
spect he was power for good.
Senator Carmack had his faults, as
all human beings have. but when he

now he is charged by his wife with
being incapable of managing the
News-Scimitar, which she alleges owes
