A spark from a defective incandescent lamp wire ignited a quantity of cotton bat- ting which John Martin, the window trim- mer, was using to decorate the large show window of John Beno & Co. for a Christmas display, shortly after 11 o'clock Thursday night. For a few minutes the blaze threat- ened to communicate to the interior of the store, but the prompt arrival of the fire de- partment and the heroic manner in which Mr. Martin tore down the blazing cotton with his bare hands prevented such a dis- aster. Martin was severely burned about his hands and face and will be laid up for some time.

Mr of the charges which have been made by insurance men. He denfes that be ever charged a fee of $250 for two half days' work in making an examination. He says that all the pursuance of notices sent ago objection to his examinations save possibly ip two instances. He denfes that the in- surance companies are leaving the state because of is examinations and exorbitant chary or oppression. A few companies left the state, and the number will probably be four before the end of the year, but these have all left because of the standard policy prepared by the attorney general and promulgated by the state au- ditor.

JUDGE SPEER SPEAKS OF NEGRO DANGER Feurs Nothing from Race Domination, Worth- less Electors Disfranchised in All Parts of Land. but Wishes Ignorant an BUFFALO, Dee, 19.—Judge Emory Speer, speaking before the Independent club of Buffalo tonight, sald in part The history of reconstruction has left an indelible impression upon the minds of the southern people. ~The words ‘negro domination” can invoke a hideous spectre which will not down. In the recent election the government recelved the approbation of the people of every northern and western state; but the solld south Is immovable. Of the 1% repre- sentatives from that homogenous Ameri- can population only sympathy with those measures of the go ernment _through which the people of the | have attained a plane of | United States prosperity unexampled and the country itself the status of a world power at once 80 equable and frresistable that the au- thoritative expression of the people’s will seems to have the force and effect of inter- national law. While this is true, it is also true that multitudes of southern men of the most forceful character are in full accord with these policies. Our reflecting people know that if the economic policies of the adminlstration were reversed a wave of bankruptcy would overwhelm our every interest. Yet they vote with mechanical reiteration against every point. Pass Important Laws, The fear of an imp acy is the only obstacle, to'be as obvious as just. It Is to be found in the enactment of impartial laws for white and black alike which will admit to the franchise the intelligent, upright and responsible of both races and exclude the venal, the Igriorant and the worthless, und such measures need not be confined to the southern states. The polyglot vote of our great cities, because more effective, seems not infrequently not less dangerous to sane overnment than the massed votes of the gnorant blacks. A danger to the welfare of the southern states {8 the possible reduction of the exist- ing number of representatives apportioned to millions of this population whose men of voling age are by state action denied the suffrage, This may any day startle the country as nothing has done since the re- construction era. A majority of congress has the power if it Is so willed. No meas- ure, however stringent, will be effective for 8004 government or stable prosperity If it engenders the universal hostility of a resolute people. But it fs at least timely to stimulate profound political thought among the people which may avoid the necessity of a measure so drastic.
