Wild Horses Snow-Bound.

It is said that an effort is being made
to capture band Of nearly a thousand
wild horses which have roamed the
hills and ranges of southern Oregon for
years. and which are a. feet as deer
and as equally as wild. This great
herd Of horses is now showed in at
Sican March. not far from Yainax In
dian agency, in the Silver Lake coun-
try. The animals We're caught in the
heavy storm and are now surrounded
by FIVE feet Of snow. As browsing is
poor they will starve unless they get
out before spring. This band of horses
has been increasing for nearly a score
Of years. During recent years, when
food has been scarce and prices low.
many horses Of good breed have been
turned loose by their ownerns and
have joined the band. 1t is reported
that strains of good blood have been
grated in and some of the wild horses
are splendid animals Free

THE
HE APPOINTMENT OF EX-
GOVERNOR JONES.

The appointment of Ex-Gov Jones,
one of the leading Democrats Of Ala
bama, to federal judgeship by Presi.
dent Roosevelt, has been much dis
cussed and variuusly interpreted.
The LEADER concurs in the view ex-
pressed so well by the Vicksburg
Herald, that, while it may have plenty
OF political consequence, it is simple
recognition of manly character and
official fitness, as personifled in the
appointee. The speech that Governor
Jones made in the Alabama Constitu-
tional Convention on lynching, was
alone enough to win him highest
honor. The following extract from
that noble and impassioned appeal is
reproduced, as testifying to the kind
of man the President has chosen for
federal judgeship and as rebuke to
the all paltriness of motive attributed
to the appointment and the app ointee
These mob executions are brutaliz-
ing our children, bunting our religion
and undermining our civilization. Can
any one in the sound of my voice rise
up and say that this is not so? We are
undermining all noble ideals of duty
and manhood. When we surrender to
any local public opinion, which domi-
mates in some places, that a sheriff is
not bound to take any risks even to
loss of life or limb in defense of
VNprcn oh oil Il
bow down and worship false and base
standards Of duty. Why should not
the sheriff die at his post as we'll as
the locomotive engineer, or the priest,
or the doctor, or the soldier? We are
setting baleful example to our young
sons, who are coming up around US, if
we teach that when prisoner is given
to an officer that officer is free to de-
sert his post of duty because there
may be danger in it. 1t is not like
Alabama or the South to tolerate such
a doctrine. Let us declare our faith
as to this in our fundamental law.

President Roosevelt objects to hand
shaking, so when he went to Yale the
other day to accept from that univer-
sity the degree of LII. D. to be con-
ferred upon him, there was lacking the
demonstration of good fellowship or
silent approval, that has been sadly
perverted, like the kiss with which
.ndas greeted his Master a fact that
may have influenced the honest
hearted President. The livery of
Heaven continues to be stolen to serve
the devil in; and the ASS ears still re-
fuse to down; SO, In public life or pri-
vate associations, we are not wholly
bereft of powers of discrimination and
are not compelled, either, to submit to
the fawnings of promiscuous pub
lie. We rather like the attitude Of the
President.

The Clarion Ledger calls attention
to the fact that during the past year
Judge Powell has sentenced to death
more men than any circuit judge in
Mississippi during an equal period.
There are now five prisoners in the
seventh judicial district awaiting legal
execution, and all have their cases be-
fore the Supreme Court on appeal.
Two of these prisoners are in Yazoo
county, two are in the Kinds county
Jail and one, Antonio Dukes, young
negro just convicted of murder in
Copiah.

The Presidents Stationery bears the
legend of the "White House," instead
of Executive Mansion," as heretofore.
He says there is not but one White

sions in all the States. He doubtless
thinks there is also a sutficiency of
billiard rooms in the country, as he
contemplates converting the billiard
hall of the White House into sleeping

A Business AdminiStratiO

The Picayune Jackson correspond
ent says about 900 bales of State
cotton have been disposed of at a
price ranging from SIG to $50 +. o. b.
In this connection the following from
the Meridian Star is germane:
Gov. Longino has played a low down
trick on number of cotton buyers,
who thought to find him mapping.
The governor went into the delta few
days ago to dispose of several hun
dred bales of cotton and found the
brokers Offering to take the supply off
his hands at ~ cents. The governor
took the train for home after Civ
ing instructions to the warden to hold
the staple until he got full market
price. The brokers dropped to them
selves and made rush to buy the cot
ton at from 84 to S1a. All interests
after while will learn that Mississip-
pi has a strictly business administra-
tion this time. The politicians learn
ed it some time ago.

Booker T. Washington alluded to the
fact of his colored brethren having

are living than to the big funerals
