DON'T WANT DEMOCRATIC REC.
OMMENDATION.

The law requires the President to
name Democrat to succeed Judge
Fuller on the Court of Private Land
Claims. The day after the burial of
by Senator Pritchard for a Republican,
Spencer g. Adams. The President told
Mr.. Pritchard that the law compelled
him to appoint a Democrat. Then
Pritchard and his crowd determined
that they would name the Democrat and
not consult Senator Simmons or either
of the seven Democratic Congressman
from North Carolina. That is their idea
of playing smart politics"
In the meantime Senator Simmons
had written to the President that as a
Democrat was to be named, he and the
Democratic members of the House
would like to be heard and would doubt
less join in recommendation. Sena-
were ready yesterday to go to Wash
ington when the news came that the ap-
pointment had Leen made. After the
courteous request, the hasty action was
equivalent to the President saying: Il
do not care to hear from you about the
proper man to appoint to a position
that must be filled by a Democrat. /
prefer to let Senator Pritchard pick out
Democrat than to listen to the desire
of the Democratic Senator and Demo-
cratic Representatives from North
Carolina" And he made the appoint
ment on the day before the Democratic
congressman had announced that they
would be in Washington.
Heretofore when the law required the
appointment of Democrat in any State,
enough respect was shown Democratic
Congressman to give them at least a
hearing, upon the presumption that
they knew who would be the best rep
resentative of their party. In most in
stances Republican Presidents in such
cases have followed their recommends
lions. In this instance, the President
makes shameless haste to prevent Civ
ing even consideration to any man they
should name, and leaves the whole thing
to Senator Pritchard. That's his idea
of the manner of selecting a Democrat
when the law requires him to name a
Democrat 1t is nothing less than an
insult to the Democracy of North Caro-
lima to look to Senator Pritchard to Sc
lect the Democrat who is to befappoint-
ed as the representative of the Demo-
cratic party. even going to the extent
of denying the courtesy of granting a
hearing to them.
THAT is Rough Riding" sure
enough.
This article is written without any
reflection upon Mr. Osborne, who has
been a lifelong Democrat The action
of the President and Mr.. Pritchard
would be open to this criticism, no mat
ter what Democrat had been selected.

Judge Avery For Senator.

Mr. w E. White, of Alexander county,
in a communication to the Statesville
Landmark, urges Judge A. c. Avery for
United States Senator, saying:
"a Senator ought to be man of UNI
question ability and of unsnllied public
and private character; man of mature

fairs: statesman and a patriot in SYM

This is combination of qualifications
that is of very rare occurrence, but we
have man in the very centre of the west
who fills the bill to the minutest detail.

The Republican and Fusion press of
New York, led by Plat and Low, have
been particularly severe upon Mr.. Shep-
ard because he declared that he would
not promise to remove Devery without
hearing. The Sun, the meanest paper
ever published, has been particularly
raspng on Mr.. Shepard because he would
not promise to dismiss Devery. The
tables were turned on Low and the Sun
when the Typographical Union of New
York asked Mr.. Low to pledge himself if
elected not to give any printing or pat
ronage to the Sun save such as the law
says shall go to all papers," Their reason
is that the Sun has been the unrelenting
foe of organized labor. Here was Mr.
Lows answer:
The question on which you wish me
to pass judgment is one upon which as a
candidate | cannot properly speak. Both
parties to the controversy must make
their own inferences from my public rec
ord as to the action l am likely to take
in the event of my election
That answer puts Low in a nine hole
and gives a black eye to his hope of get
ting the vote of organized labor. Incl
dentally it makes ridiculous Mr.. Lows
denunciation of Mr. Shepard because he
declares he will not pledge himself as to
his action on the police department, ex-
cept to say that 1t shall be conducted
along the lines that comport with his
ideas often expressed of an honest, just
and fair administration
Mr.. Low and the Sun are in hole.

Washington, May 2.-The legation
guard at the American legation at
Picking will not be subjected to the
Srder Of any foreign general. Official
reports ef the latest phases Of the
negotiations at Peking as given IN the
press dispatches have not reached
Washington. and it is suggested as a
possibility that the demands of the
generals are not unqualified. Still If
they are the American legation guard
will retain it's independence even if
1t is necessary to that end to remove
it from Peking and from China. The
latter course might become necessary
in ease one Of the powers formally
declared war on China ard exercises
its right to cause the withdrawal Of
all neutral forces, but under existing
conditions the guard probably will re-
main.'
Germany was one of the powers
that subscribed heartily to the sug-
gestion of the United States that no
nation make private arrangements
with China for the enlargement or
acquisition of concessions, so the OFF,
cials here are surprised to learn that
the Germans have taken steps to ac-
quire concession at Canton. 1t is
believed here that it was without
doubt the insistence by the United
States upon the force of this argu-
ment that checknated Russia's de-
signs upon Manchuria for the time
being.
