NO FIGHT LIKELY OVER THE PLATFORM Change in Management at the Glen- Feeble- Made wood Institute for Minded e Wednesday. (From a Staft Correspondent.) DES MOINES, June i8.—(Special)—The present outlook for the republican state convention of this week is that it will be one of the best ever held. A large number of the prominent men of the party are to be present. George D. Perkins will be temporary chairman and E. W. temporary secretary. Among the promi- nent delegates already selected, many of whom will be here tomorrow, are Becretary Wilson of Tama, Congressmen Smith, Hedge, Haugen, Thomas, Hepburn and Birdsall; Speaker Eaton, ex-Speakers Bow- en, Bryers and Funk, Colonel L. B. Ray- mond, Grand Army of the Republic de- partment commander; J. W. Blythe, Bur- lington; George W. Clarke, Adel, probably the next speaker of the house; National Committeeman Hart and about a dogzen of the district judges. The candidates for superintendent have arranged to open head- quarters on Monday and begin a campalgn. Speaker Eaton of Mitchell county will have charge of the candidacy of Superintend- ent Barrett tendent Riggs will be managed by N. E. Kendall of Albla, and it appears that there | belng to run it on a regular schedule for 1s some doubt about the management ot the Adams candidacy. In regard to the platform nothing new has developed. A systematic effort has been made to get the old factions In the party at loggerheads again and to induce the members of the convention to break loose and insist upon a platform different from that which will be reported by the committee. It is belleved, however, that there 18 no possible way that a fight can be had cn the platform. Will Appeal for Assistance. Colonel L. B. Raymond, department commander of the Grand Army of the Republic, arrived in the city today from Hampton. He will tomorrow send out to the posts of the state an appeal from the national headquarters for assist- ance for the comrades in Kansas.

It is earnestly desired that this department show their comrad- ship to our comrades in Kansas by imme- diately responding to their appeal. Re- member, he gives twice who gives prompt- ly. Let every post give something. One dollar from each post will aggregate quite a sum, but of course many posts can give more.

The Elks lodge of Des Moines closed a week’s fair at midnight last night, having | had & week of the finest weather and fairly §00d crowds, though not many from out of the city. The carnival or fair had a fine line of features and fireworks, but the Elks' managers are today figuring up and settling accounts, and find that they have made very little or no money by the weok's work.

PARIS, June 28.—(New York World Ca- blegram—Special Telegram.)—Queen Helene will be France's guest with her husband when the king of Italy visits Parls. There was some objection to this plan at first, the argument being advanced that a presi- | dent's wife does not participate In his func- | tions as head of the state, hence the queen's visit would not be altogether appropriate. But the czarina's visit was cited to parry this and it was decided that Queen Helene shall come to Paris with the kin; FORECAST OF THE WEATHER Partly Cloudy, with Probable Showers Monday and Tue: Nebraska. ay in WASHINGTON, June 2.—The forecas!

OFFICE OF THE WEATHER BUREAU, VISIT SCENE OF BURNING Thousands of Morbid People Trafup Over the Field Where it Ocourrdd. CHURCH STANDS FAST BY ITS PREACHER‘: Strong Endorsement of Man Whose Sensational Sermon is Held Re- sponsible the Wil mington Horror. for WILMINGTON, Del,, sands of persons today visited the scene where George F. White, the negro, burned last Monday by a mob for the mur- der of Miss Helen Bishop. They came from all the small towns in this vicinity and hundreds journeyed to the execution | place from Chester, Pa., and Philadelphia. A trolley line runs within three-quarters of a mile of the scene and 'bus drivers and others owning vehicles did a thriving busi- | ness carrying passengers to the place and explaining to them the events of the last two weeks. The burning took place in a freshly-plowed fleld about fifty feet from the roadway, which is hidden by high bushes. The fleld has been tramped almost as smooth and hard as asphalt by the thousands of persons who have visited the farm. The only evidence that remains of the work of the mob are three cobble- stones, on one of which this inscription has been placed in indelible ink: ‘“Here is all that remains of White." The bushes behind which the murder oc- curred have been cut down for a distance of several yards and carrled away by relic hunters. Many of those who visited the scene today, among them a large number of women, carried away a sprig or branch of the bushes. Discussion of the events of the last week 1= rapidly ending, although the subject was the text of some clergymen today. Preachers without exception condemn the Iynching, notwithstanding the fact that public sentiment is overwhelmingly on the side of the lynchers. Stand by Preacher. Rev. Robert A. Elwood, the Presbyterian minister who has come in for much criti- cism for his sermon of last Sunday night, as suggesting lynching In case the negro escaped punishment at the hands of the law, did not refer to the lynching or the criticlsms today. These criticisms were an- swered by his congregation today when the following resolutions were read dur- ing the services: We, the officers and_ members of the Presbyterlan church, Wilmington, = Del., Tealizing the unjust criticism being made upon our beloved pastor, Rev. Robert A. Fiwood, by & large proportion of the pub- lic press, do place ourselves on record i e’ following reslutions: First, we express our firm belief in our pastor's honesty, integrity and christianity our appreciation of his ministerial labors fn every congregation and our admiration of his manly, Christlan courage as ex- Jressed by his pulpit messages and his life fa our. miast. 'Second, we record our bellef that his message of last Sunday evening was both timely. and true, sensible and scriptural and in no wise can the actions of the citl zens on Monday night be chargeable to that sermon. Third, we order a copy of these resolu- tions placed upon the sessional records, read in the church services of the coming Tord's day and given to the press for publication. Wilmington remains quiet. The police department, however, has not relaxed its vigilance and is prepared to meet almost any emergency. It is not belleved that any | further trouble will be started by either | the whites or blacks. Arraigns White Man, Rev. Mostrose W. Thornton, colored, pas- tor of the First African Methodist Episco- pal church of this city, preached a sensa- tional sermon to his congregation tonight. He said in part: | The white man, in face of his boasted | civilization, stands before my eyes tonight | the demon of the world's races, a monster | incarnate, and insofar as the negro race | is concerned, seems to give no quarter. | The white man is a heathen, a flend, a | monstrosity before God and is equal to any “ act in the category of crime. 1 would sooner trust myself in a den of hyenas | than in his arms. With the court, law and | officers of the law In his hands, the dl‘" spised negro can expect no mercy, justice or protection. The negro. is unsate any- | where in this country. He is the open prey at all times of barbarians, who know no restraints and will not' be restrained. | There {8 but one part left for the perse- cuted negro when charged with crime and when innocent. Be a law unto yourself. You are taught by this lesson of outrage to save yourself from torture at the hands of the biood-seeking public, Save your race from insult and shame. De your own | sherift, court and jury, as was the outlaw | Tracey. Die in your tracks, perhaps drin ing the blood of your pursuer. Booker Washington's charity, humanity, advice of | forgiveness, love, industry, and so forth, will never be recipracated by white men.
