Roosevelt has been frequently char
acterized as “no politician,’' and that
he was impulsive, honest and straight
forward was accepted even by those
who differed with him politically.
The Charleston gentlemen who wrote
to him their objections to the negro
Crum’s appointment, labored under
this delusion. They ignored the politi
cian and addressed the white man, giv
ing their reasons honestly.

A STARTLING SURPRISE-
Very few could believe in looking at
A. T. Hoad ley, a healthy, robust black
smith of Tilden Ind., that for ten years
he suffered such tortures from Rheu
matism as few could encure and live,
but a wonderful change followed his
taking Electric Bitters. “Two bottles

Very Sensible Views From a Northern
Source.
The New York Times, in discussing
the matter of the appointment of the
colored man Crum to the collcctorainp
at Charleston, lias this to say :
Reason and the teachings of experi
ence stand opposed to the theories by
which President Roosevelt attempts to
justify his appointment of a colored
man as Collector of the |>ortof Charles
ton. Manifestly it cannot be for the
good of the customs service that the
office of Collector at that port should
be held by a man whose appointment is
distasteful and offensive to nincty-nine-
hundredths of the persons having busi
ness to do at the custom house. It is
equally manifest that there is no ad
vantage for the administration or the
government in an act that embitters an
entire community against the Presi
dent. Plainest and clearest of all, the
colored race, either individually or as a
whole,has nothing to gain by obstinate
persistence in a policy which intensifies
race feeling and confirms the resolve of
the whites of the South to re***st bj
every means in their power the poui.-
cal advancement of the ! lacks
The Pres dent ■•ogiu d.sregard all
these things, he in.gut, take tiic r> 55*v cliiti
incur the inconvenience of bitter feel
ing and intensified race prejudice, if
only he vtere convinced that by contin
uing the policy of appointing blacks to
office, little by little prejudice would
wear away, opposition diminish, and a
time at length come when the appoint
ment of a black man in South Carolina
would attract no more attention than
it would in Massachusetts. He might
furthermore feel that the policy was
justified if it was really helpful to the
colored people, if through political rec
ognition they were elevated mentally,
morally, and as men, and were making
visible progress toward better citizen
ship. That is his theory, but the facts
of forty years’ experience confute it.
He is trying by the use of the power of
appointment to efface the distinction
between the whites of the South and a
race w-hich they universally regard as
inferior. In this attempt the adminis
tration is dashing its head against a
granite wall.
STARTLING BUT TRUE.

us but a single night; but long enough
for a great number of hogs to be slain.
It was received gladly, for everybody
was anxious to kill hogs. It snowed a
little on Thursday, thus giving the boys
room for high hopes of a “big snow;”
but they were disappointed.
There have been an unusual number
of real estate transactions this year.
The report is current that Mr. A. \V.
Cushman has bought Mr. W. O. John
son’s home place, and that Mr. Johnson
has bought Mr. C. L. Weeks’ place.
There are also some other minor trans
actions.
