BULL MOOSE RAMPANT
 IN CAPITAL THIS WEEK
FIGHT OVER EXCURSION OF NE. GROES IN CONVENTION WATCH.
 ED WITH INTEREST,
CaI. |. W. Files Formerly State Aud it0r, Joins With tie Third
 Party AdherentS.

Little Rock, July 29-The Bull Moose is rampant in Little Rock this week. The s<ate convention called by J. A. Conner A. $. Fowler, w. $. Holt and others, representing nearly every county, meets July 30 to select delegates to the national convention in Oh cago next Monday, August 5. To the Democrats the most interes,- ing feature of this political side-show is the split in the ranks of the third party itself over the negro question, which prom sel 70 spread from the counties to the state convention. It is the cid question of lilly whitism", which has been potent cause of di- vision among the Republicans for years. The negro, holding the bal ance of power, has always won out. In the present cris's, the negroes are divided, the majCrity of them going with the Roosevelt faction, and now a minority of that faction would purge the new third party of the Sen egambian element.
 The split was accented in the ePu- laski- county convention when prop osition to exclude the negro was vot- ed down, 36 to 27, the negroes them selves casting 20 vc..es. The Lily white faction then boltel and held a separate convention. Contesting delegates were elected to the state convention, one of them being all white men, and the ether containing five negroes in 22 delegates. Several men who have been Democrats are in each delegation. J. M Connor, a ne- gro, recently elected Bishop in the A. M. E. Church, is one of the deie- gates.
 It is an interesting fact that one of the delegates in the pro-negro convention, and a member of the central committee, is Col. A. W. Fl es who was the Democrats State Audi tor from 1SS3-1SS7, and was subse- ouen..ly the Populist nominee for Governor and for years the leader of the decadent Populist party Col Files admitted that his action pre- sented some what unusual specta- cle. and said:
 "You may think it is funny to see an old dyed n-th-Wool Southerne1 like me, former shareholder in the days before he war standing up here shaking hands across the chasm with these cid carpettbaggers, but have become interested in this new party movement and want to see il succeed"
 l Sid B. Bedding, clerk of the U. s District Court, has declined to align h mself with the third party move ment, although he was one of the original Roosevelt supporters, ane and the nominee of the boilers fol National Committeeman to succeed General Powell Clayton. He stayed with the opposition until the nomlna. ton at Chicago, and then announcet ! that he would go no further bu would support Taft and sherman He favored the nomination of Roose welt, but did not approves "a third party and would snot desert z the 2 regulal organizations.. He declined to slgl the cell for the state convention, ant will not participate ill it's proceed ings.
