CAPT. JOHN G. CAPERS
OUT FOR CONGRESS
Announces that He will R'jn en !tC'
publican Ticket for Congress from
This District.
Cant. John G. Capers, of Greenville,
South Carolina member of the repub
lican national committee, announced
last Wednesday that he would be a
candidate for congress against Joseph
T. Johnson, the present representa
tive.
In an interview at the Gresham ho
tel in Spartanburg, where he wus con
ferring with republicans from several
counties of the Piedmont, Captain Ca
pers declared that be would give Mr.
Johnson a hot race.
"There are 12,000 voters in the
Fourth congressional district," said
Captain Capers, "who have come here
from North Carolina and Tennessee
and are working in the mills. The?e
men will vote for a republican candi
date If he is a clean, decent white
man. There has been no opportun
ity here to vote for a republican of
good repute for 1G years. These men
are naturally republicans and would
vote the republican ticket if there
Were a republican organization and
republican candidate of which they
were not ashamed. As there lias been
no respectable republican party, they
have had to' turn to the democratic
primary.
"Furthermore, the mill presidents
will remove their estoppai if the re
publican party will put forward re
spectable candidates. Heretofore they
have discouraged In a neffectivc way
any movement on the part of their
employes to support the republic an
party, but that was because the par
ty was controlled by negroes and such
men as Joe Tolbert. The mill presi
dents like Lewis W. Parker, of Green
ville, are friendly to me and would
have no objection to their employes
voting for me."
Can (Jet Puhlic Buildings.
Captain Capers said that he esteem
ed Congressman Johnson, but that
the latter was not in a position to do
much for the district.
"If the voters of this congressional
district will send me to congress,"
said Captain Capers, "I will be of
great value to them. I will secure
public buildings, for one thing."
The republican nomination is made
by convention and not by the demo
cratic method of a primary. There
is no doubt, however, of Captain Ca
pers' ability to secure the nomina
tion.
However, the "black and tan" re
publicans may also put out a candi
date. They nominated Tom Briar, a
Greenville negro, for congress two
years ago.
Captain Capers said he was more
interested in the establishment of a
clean, respectable republican party in
South Carolina than in the question
of whether Taft or Roosevelt would
be nominated.
"I will frankly admit," said be.
"that the party in South Carolina as
up to this time constituted, has been
a disreputable organization. I have
bedn in disgrace with my family and
intimate friends for being a repub
lican. And as the principles for
which the republican party stands are
as dear to me as my personal integ
rity, It is necessary for me to remove
the stigma which attaches to the
name of republican in South Carolina
by establishing a respectable party."
Captain Capers said that the title
"lily whites" was a misnomer, as
negroes would not be entirely ex
cluded from the Cnpers-Hlalock par
ty. In some of the coast counties
there are. no white republicans at all,
he said, and It would be" necessary to
have a few negro delegates, but col
ored men of unquestioned respect
ability would be chosen.
lie said that probably six of the
"lily white" delegates to the repub
lican national convention would be
negroes.?Spartanburg Journal.

MISS CLARA BARTON DEAD,
Founder of Red Cross In This Country
Died ut Murylnnd Home.
Washington/April 12.?Miss Clara!
Barton, founder of the American Red
CrosB and probably the moat widely
known American woman of her day,1
died at her home, "Red Cross," in
Glen Echo, Md., this morning at 9
o'clock. She was DO years old.
Miss Barton suffered an attack of!
pneumonia in February, t 11, had a
relapse and the disease became
chronic. Muscular weakness of the
heart developed and for weeks the
condition of the venerable nurse had
been grave. Her bright mind was un
dlminished almost to the last. With
her when the end came were her
nephew, Stephen Barton, of Boston
and Dr. J. B. Hubbell.
The great regret of Miss Barton's
last months was that her enfeebled
condition made it necessary for her
suspend work upon her autobiography.
She bad brought this work down oly
to the beginning of her public career
as a nurse in the War Between the
Sections.
The last years of the great Red
Cross nurse bad been spent in retire
ment. She retired (from the prsir
dency in 1904 and since that time had
had no affiliation with the organiza
tion of which she previously had been
the bead since its establishment,
through her efforts, somewhat more!
than .10 yenrs ago.
Miss Barton will be buried where
she was born, on the sloping of the
little cemetery, in Oxford. Mass.,
with father and mother, brothers and
Bisters, she will be laid to her long
rest.
In accordance with Miss Barton's
wishes, expressed shortly before her
death, her long-time friend, Mrs. John
A. Logan, will be present at the short
funeral service at Glen Echo and will
deliver a euloglum.
Rev. Dr. John Van Schaich and the
Rev. Dr. Curry, Universalist clergy
men, will also offtciaate. Miss Barton
leaned toward Universal ism, but held
membership in no church.
The funeral party will leave here
Sunday evening and further services
In Oxford will be conducted Monday
at noon, by Rev. Win. F. Barton if|
Chicago, a cousin, and Rev. Percy H.
Epler of Worcester, Mass., both Con
gregationalists.
