IA PLEA FOR
 FAIR PLAY

he was convicted It would seem that
 our people possess ample intelligence
 to settle our own internal and local
 affairs without importing agents to
 aid them. Dr. Naples has no personal interest in our people, and is not familiar with our social or political conditions; he
 is simply working for the weekly
 stipend of one hundred dollars which
 is paid him to come here. This sum,
 in this srasping age of materialism, might well be calculated to induce hired orators to make reckless charges that do not exist. We did not bring the negro into this fight nor are we responsible for the prominence it has given him. He was
 brought into it by the prohibitionists, and whatever prominence he obtains is due to them. If they want him in politics, they should not drag him in and lay the fault at our door, The undersigned comprise all the saloon men and dealers in whiskey in Pine Bluff, and we unhesitatingly say that we have not at any time of fered the negro preachers of the coun- ty or city, any sum of money what
 ever, or any other thing of value for
 their influence in obtaining the vote of the negro for license. It is now up to Dr. Naples to give the people something more than the statement of hired speaker in support of the charges that he makes. In conclusion we desire to say that we are citizens of Pine Bluff; that most of us have spent the best years
 of our lives among the citizenship of this city; here some of us have mar ried and raised our families. We have put no blocks in the way to ma l terial advancement of this city, but in our humble way, have contributed in any way that we could to it's upbuild. ing.
 We are citizens, and ask at the hands of our fellow citizens that fair
 and honest treatment which one cit izen may ask at the hands of another.

THE ONE ELEMENT.

The Democratic party Is engaged ,in a great campaign to capture the Presidency.
 The party is united. The people-the common people are with it in it's battle. Every Democrat is going to support it's nominees.
 All signs point to a great Democrat ic victory next November. The people are fully aroused to the hypocrisy of Republican rule. They are tired of it and are only waiting to overthrow it. The Democracy of the nation has every element necessary to victory eX- cept one.
 Money.
 Unable as it is to call upon tariff protected trusts as is the Republican party, Democracy is compelled to ask its members to contribute to its campaign fund.
 And they are responding. Let the good work go on. Let every Democrat send in his dol lar and the day is ours.

Editor Graphic: In your issue of Friday 11th, under the headlines, Startling charges made last night" you report the Rev. Dr. Naples as giv- ing utterance to the following senti- ments upon the prohibition question, we quote:
 The present fight on the license of the saloon in Jefferson county reach- ed white heat last night when the Rev. Dr. Naples on the Court House Square openly charged that the ne- gro preachers of Jefferson county had been brought to the city and attempts to bribe them had been made.
 Naples declared that the effort was to buy up the negro preachers, and through them, to control the votes at the polls Monday in favor of the sa- loon.'
 Dr. Naples does not charge the at tempted, or imaginary attempted cor ruption of the ballot by bringing in the negro preachers to the saloon be the largest beneficiaries of the whiskey traffic, it requires no great stretch of the imagination to bring the belief that he meant that his audience should understand such to be the case.
 Dr. Naples should have dealt hon. estly with his audience, and if he knew the statements made by him to be true, he should have furnished them with proof in support of his charges. Why should the people of Pine Bluff believe the unsupported statement of an unknown man having nothing in common with our people, and having no interest in the issue, except the pay that he receives for the work that he performs? Surely in this country no citizen Or set of citizens will be con- vlcted of any charges until competent proof to sustain such charges has been submitted. We do not know who Dr. Naples is; where he came from; who sent him here, or anything concern ing his life and character, nor do the people of Pine Bluff; but certain it is, that his charges in his public talk Thursday night, September 10th, as printed in the Graphic, to the effect that there was an effort to buy up the negro preachers, at least so far as he declared that the same should ap- ply to those who engage in the whis- key business in this city, is absolutely and unqualifiedly false.
 A short time ago one Mr. Trickett came here advertising prohibition and proclaiming himself generally as an advocate of high morals, and soon af- ter his departure the Graphic and other papers reported him in the hands of the criminal courts in an- other state for accepting money which he was not entitled to receive under the law, and upon this charge

NORTH vAssALBORO.

AT $50 Thursday morning fire was
seen issuing from the VI. F.. Church in
this village. An alarm was at once
sounded by the Mill whistle and three
lines of hose laid which soon drenched
the structure. This church had been
thoroughly repaired two years ago
with steel ceiling and walls. new pews
carpet and memorial windows at an
expense of $500 under the pastorate
of Rev. r. A. Colpitts now of Port
land. The fire started in the vestry
doubtless from lamp although, at 8
o'clock the evening proceeding every
thing was left safe and secure by tho
church officials who held a meeting at
that time. There is an insurance Of
$4,000 while the loss will be $4,000.
Owing to the fire working between the
walls and steel it was difficult fire to
reach but this doubtless prevented it
from spreading to other buildings.
The loss is total on tho chu~oh although
the bell was saved. The walls are still
standing although the roof is all gone.
