SOUTHERN PROTEST
Is Strong Against Presidents Obliter-
alton of the Color Line

Washington, Oct 21-President Roose-
velt's action in inviting Booker T.
Washington, the colOred educator to
dinner in the White House appears to
have lost him a large part of the sup
port he had gained by his broad-mind-
edness in the matter of appointments
From every southern state has arisen
an indignant protest against this APP
parent breaking down of the color line,
and it is openly affirmed by many who
had previously approved the presidents
policy that he had wantonly insulted
the social ideas of the south upon one
of it's most delicate and sensitive points.
In the capital, however, there is a
marked difference in the viewpoint from
that at first expressed. The southern
politicians, who in the first flush of
their indignation were open in their
denunciation of the act. seem ready to
allow the incident to pass without fur
Their comment on their part. 1t was a
noticeable fact that at least five south
ern Democratic representatives who
criticised the president m st harshly
turned I'D at the White House today
and smilingly presented their claims to
federal Jobs in behalf of Democratic
constituents. Not one of them said a
word to the president about Washing
toms visit to the White House
Senator Bailey of Texas, who is not
known to have Joined in the criticism
of the presidents course in having
-
who SO far as appearance go was not
concerned about President Roosevelt's
personal affairs, spent 10 minutes with
the president and was rewarded by a
promise that Major Luther r. Hare will
be promoted to a brigadier generalShip
for the part he played in rescuing Lieut..
Gilmore and his party in the Philip
pines.
President Roosevelt will pay no at
tention to the criticism of southern
newspapers. Neither will he offer any
explanation of his course to any south
ern member of congress. One of the
presidents friends said that the presi-
dent cannot understand why southern
men should feel aggrieved because ne
invited Mr.. Washington to dinner, in
asmuch as Washington came to the ma
tiona1 capital as the political agent of
Alabama Democrats, who desired him
to use his influence to secure certain
federal appointments.
The president found it impossible to
talk to Washington in his Office and
dealing with all other visitors whom he
desired to confer with. he invited MI.
Washington to dinner.
The president does not draw the color
line when colored men of education and
good mental attachments are concerned.
While he was governor of New York
he entertained the colored half back,
Parish, of the Yale football team at
his home in Oyster Bay. On another
occasion at Albany he furnished lodg-
ings at the executive mansion to a col
ored baritone singer named Brigham,
who was connected with the choir OF
ST. Georges church, New York. Brig
ham found it impossible to obtain
lodgings in Albany and the governor,
hearing of his predicament, took him
once invited Fred Douglas to a White
House reception.

able discharge, forfeiture of all pay and
allowances, and imprisonment at hard
labor for life in three cases, for seven
years in one case and for five years IN

WAS HAsKELL'S DAY.
Beat Kirksville Osteopaths SO to 8 in
Slashing Game.

Kirksville, Mo-. Oct 21.-The Haskell
Indians defeated the Osteopaths Satur-
day afternoon. Score, SO to 5. The Os-
teopaths, in spite of the great odds
against them in weight, won the dis
tinction of scoring the only touchdown
that has been made against the Indians
this season. The Indians line was 20
pounds heavier to the man. The game
was clean throughout, and the visitors
had none but words of praise for the
local management for its treatment of
them. Miguel, the Indians fullback, was
sent over the Osteopaths' line for every
one of the touchdowns, with the excep-
ton of one, which was made by Cap
tain Archiquette, who got the ball on a
tumble of Davis and sprinted down the
field for 40 yards with every man on
Osteopaths' team at his heels, but un-
able to overtake the fieet-footed Oneida.
The OsteOpaths scored in the first half
shortly before its close. Kirksville had
kicked off and Carl. of the Indians,
blocked the kick, the ball bounding back
and a Kirksville man falling on it.
Kirksville then, by phenomenal plays
through the center and the tackles and
guards, made steady gains and Craig
was put over the last five yards for the
touchdown. Crowley missed goal A
number of accidents occurred, neceSSi-
tating changes in both lines. Cleary.
Kirksvilles left guard, was hurt in a
scrimn age and Miller succeeded him.
Johnson was taken out of Kirksvilles
line because of poor tackling and fun
bling and Reese was put in playing a
star game behind the line, Captain Van
dorm playing at quarterback. OF the
Indians, Dugan fell on his left arm
after a tackle and splintered one of the
bones at the elbow joint. Dubois sprain-
ed his left foot in the first half and re-
tired at it's close. Haas and Toma
hawk went it. Balm, formerly of the
Carlisle team, made the greatest gains
for the Indians, and was a host in him
self. The Indians scored three touch
downs in each half and Falls never
missed kicking the goal.

were enough to disgust any football
enthusiast
Outland played with the University
of Pennsylvania and was counted a
star. He was picked by Walter Camp
on the a11-American football team for
1899, and now receives $1,000 for ten

a man certainly understands the rules
of football thoroughly enough to know
that a coach never has the right to
cross the side lines of the gridiron and
to be upon the field or to converse or
argue with the players or the officials
In Saturdays game Outland repeated

with the players of the opposing team

time he and Captain Jenkinson while
on the field called Umpire White, their
man who played under an assumed
name at Kirksville. to one side als1

star player, perhaps he is an excellent
coach, although that has not been de-
termined, but he certainly disgusts
everyone by his repeated violation of
the rules

The DOlds Are Starting a Big
Packing House.
One of the Greatest in the West
to Arise at Wichita.
BIG FORCE is AT WORK.
Intended That Plant Shall Be
Absolutely Fire Proof.
Ready For Business in the
Early Spring Months.

Wichita, Oct 21-The big new pack
ing house of Dold's will begin to rise
skyward this week and by Tuesday 80
brick layers will be raising the walls
of solid masonry that will enclose one
of the greatest packing houses in the
west
The foundation walls are about COM
pleted. The vestibule is built up one
story. The circle saw is being put in
place and two new Ohio trucks are on
the ground with a carrying capacity of
1000 feet of lumber. The big oak tim
bers for posts and Orders will be here
by Tuesday. The preliminary arrange
mentS for the building of the greater
Dold packing house are now completed
and the active work will begin.
A Wichita man has been given the
contract for the iron and bridge that
will connect the killing room with the
i'm mense cooler. His contract for the
steel bridge and steel doors for the yes
tibule amounted to about $1,000.
G. H. Bradford got the contract and
he says the steel bridge is the largest
they have ever built in the west to con-
meet buildings. The span will be 40 feet
and it will be IL feet high, II feet wide
and will be SO feet from the dock.
The contract includes one steel con-
Structed sausage smoke room which
will set % feet above the ground on
four massive steel columns. Also one
steel freprOof veStibule for separating
the cutting room from the chill room.
The steel bridge is warranted to be of
sufficient strength to bear a moving
weight of 10000 pounds. The smoke
rooms will be lined with asbestos and
all openings will be provided with
standard steel doors and will be absO-
lutely fireproof.
The steel bridge will have fireproof
cement floor and the sausage room will
be 16 feet square on the inside and 81
feet high and the floors Will be of arch
ed segments m ade of tile and cement.
Everything about the greater Dold
house will be constructed with a view
to fire protection. 1t will be the great
est packing house in the west and it
will be constructed in such a manner
that nothing short of miracle can ever
destroy it.
1t is the intention of Fred bold to
rush the work so as to be killing hogs
in the early spring. He will also en-
large the cattle cooler and when the
new house is completed the Dolds will
be killing more cattle than were ever
before killed in this city.

WILL TAKE LONG REST.
Ambassador Choate Expects to Re-
main Till New Years.

New York, Oct. 19.-Mr. Choate was
met at the steamship pier on his arrival
by his law partner, A. w. Evarts, and
for a few minutes they walked up and
down the pier talking. After the am
bassador's baggage had been passed by
the customs officials the party fastened
away from the pier Mr.. Choate was
unwilling to discuss the reasons for his
return home, or to talk about the
isthmian canal treaty. He said:
IT cannot talk about this matter, nor
would it be right for me to discuss
possible treaties or the canal question.
I have had a most delightful trip
across and have enjoyed myself very
much. I shall remain here until New
Years, and of course shall go to Wash
ington and confer with the president
and Secretary Hay. I shall not go to
Washington for few days"
number of other questions regard
ing England's attitude on the canal
question were asked the ambassador,
but to all of them he smilingly gave
the same reply-that he would not dis
cuss his affairs.
Mr.. Evarts, who left the pier after
the ambassadors family had driven
away, said that the ambassador had
gone to catch an early train for his
summer home at Stockbridge, Mass.
