ssThe Saunterer'' in New York
Tovn Topics speaks the whole truth
in the following paragraph: "Repeat-
edly have reminded the Hanna ad-
,ninistration that the appointment Of
negro oficeholders in white communi-
ties in the South would result in
criminal outrages, and / am glad to
know that my remonstrances have
prevented several such appointments.
The cruel murder, last week, Of a
negro postmaster in Lake City, a
South Carolina hamlet, emphasizes
my objections. Nobody can defend
the ignorant whites that lynched this
negro, but the whites are not so much
TO blame as the reckless Republican
managers that sent the negro to GER
tain death. There are sections OF this
city, Of Chicago, Philadelphia, Boston
-of every American city-in which a
negro official would be no safer than
he is in South Carolina. The admin
istration is paying off the negro dele
gates that nominated Mckinley and
calls it building up the Republican
party in the South It seems to me
more like killing off the Republican
marty. -

and they were on their way home.
The survivors say the Specdwcll,
which is a small vessel of about TWEEN
ty-fvc tons, was making slow head
way this morning against heavy
wind. About : o'clock Capt. Collier
was at the wheel and the Nichols
family and the Collier children were
in the cabin asleep. Suddenly \
squall came up and the BOAT was
turned over. Collier. the deck hand,
and Mr.. Bates were swept into the
sea, but caught the rigging in time to
save themselves. The men lashcd
