still "Exeeutive Mansion"

The widely-circulated story that Presi- dent Roosevelt has discarded all the of- ficial stationery bearing the old and fa- miliar legend. "Executive Mansion, Wash ingt on," and caused to be substituted for it stationery bearing the heading, "The White House, Washington" is not borne out by letter from the Presidents sec- retary dated October Is. 1901.
 This letter from Secretary Corteiyou has been received by Hon. John w. O'Neill of Birmingham, and at the top of the first page Is the old-time "Execu- tive Mansion. Washington" The en- velope and paper are of deep mourning.

He Will Do 1t Aoaln.

Chioago, October 20. - (Special) A Washington correspondent of the Inter Ocean telegraphs his paper tonight as fol- lows:
 President Roosevelt is only amused at the criticisms in Southern papers becausa he chose to invite Booker T. Washington to dine at his private table in the White House. The Southern papers that are oenounclng this act as an outrage simply show the narrowness of their own editors in trying to regulate the life of the Presi- dent of the United States A Memphis paper declares that this is the most damnable outrage ever perpetrated by any citizen of the United States If that is to be the attitude of the Democratic press of the South they will have many provocations in the future
 President Roosevelt will not be guided by Southern prejudices.. He is not seek ing to placate the South by the appoint ment of Southern Democrats to office. He is simply seeking to put partisanship aside when he appoints Federal officers, naming the best men he can find, and where there are few Republicans of the legal training to be qualified for Federal judge, as in the South he will appoint Democrats. That was what the Presi- dent did in appointing ex-Governor Jones of Alabama to the Federal bench. The President was amused at some com ments of the Southern press on that ap- pointment, assuring him that he could not win over Democrats to Republican policies by patronage bribery.
 "The invitation to Professor Washing ton to dine at the White House was not a new departure on the part of President Roosevelt. The two men have dined to- gether before and he will invite him to dine again.
 President Roosevelt has no desire to irritate the South, but he will not ask the Southern editors to define for him the conduct of a gentleman. Had Wash ington been invited to a state dinner there might have been some excuse for the Southern criticism as expressive of the attitude of one section of the coun- try toward a public act of the President. But when Southern papers denounce the President for inviting a negro to his private table they show how narrow are their prejudices, and the President will pay no attention to such criticisms. He comedies to his opponents the right to critcise his public acts, but he regards as impertinence the criticisms of his private courtesies." ..

action of President Roosevelt in inviting Booker T. Washington to dine with him. everyone comedies that, while Washing tons self advancement and his efforts to elevate his race are commendable, the President aimed a direct slap at all southern notions when he placed negro at the same table with his family. To a man the white Republicans here refuse to discuss the matter. Walter Johnson, an officeholder and chairman of the Re publican State Executive Committee, was the only one to even say two words about the affair. He said.
 Everyone has right to do as he pleases in his own house. You need not ask me about the political phase. as do not care to discuss it."
 Governor Candler was outspoken in his denunciation of Roosevelt, saying:
 No self-respecting Southern man can ally himself with the President after what has occurred. The step has done the Republican party no earthly good, and 1t will materially injure it's chances In the South. The effect of the Jones appointment Is largely neutralized Still, l guess 1t is like the old woman when she kissed the COW. As a matter of fact. Northern people do not understand the negro.

JAPANESE COINAGE.
WHEN Japan adopted the gold stan

WHEN Japan adopted the gold stan
w dard it did so, not by limiting
its silver coinage, which was in very ex-
tensive circulation and almost exclusive
employment among it's people, but by
decreasing the weight of its gold coins
until be ratio between the two was as
80 to in place of lG to l as before. This
ratio at the time (Oct. l, 1890 repre-
sented correctly the relative values of
metals expressed III terms Of gold. But,
since then, silver has advanced serious
ly in price, and Japanese silver coinage
can now with profit be melted and sold
to China or India for gold. And, as a
matter of fact, such a process is going
on, so that coin for trading purposes IS
already becoming lit scarce, and
something will have to be done by the
Mikado. This is one of those incidents
that demonstrates how futile it is and
always will be for governments to at
tempt to regulate the value of substances
by law In Europe the treasures and
banks can only retain their stocks of
gold by paying interest on them, or by
locking them up in burglar proof vaults
with time locks and destroying the COM
binaton of the latter, SO that the Lord

the yellow metal works it's way out In
India, after seven years trial, it has
been found impossible to force it upon
the people. even at the point of the bay
onet They simply wont have it. In
the Unit ed States where we have largely
gradua ed from the metallic money idea

Of both the precious metals in the banks
and treasures has grown to such an eX-
tent that here is hardly enough real es-
tate unoccupied in the District of Column
ba for proper storage facilities, and the
cost Of new vaults is actually becoming
a serious question: And now in Japan
where the people must have silver coin
because as mass they do not and will
not use gold any more than the Chinese
or Hindoos) the white metal is disap-
pearing just about as fast as the coin

The Highest Market Price for Voters.

It seems to be settled that the state of
Montana affords the best market for
voters of any state in the Union. A
party who recently came from there
says that any man who wanted it could
get twenty dollars for his vote. That
was the ruling price. The prices were
paid by either Clark or the representa-
tives Of the late Marcus DAILY. The
voters who didn't sell voted either the
republican, prohibitionist or socialist
tickets
Mckinley got 25,373 votes, Debs got
70S and Woolley got 29S votes. so that
there seem to be something over 10000
men in the state of Montana who will
not sell their franchise any rate not
for 800. But just think OF candidate
having to pay $40 vote for say thirty
tnousanc votes. The ordinary Kansas
candidate would last IN that sort of d
game just about thirty seconds Topeka

THE OLD AND THE NEW.

TN behalf of the retiring county
l. officers it is not improper to state
that the taxpayers of the county are
graf eful for the efficient services rem
dered, and while others have been chosen
to take their places yet there are great
many of the prominent residents of the
county who acqniece with regret to the
popular verdict. The late officers dur
ing their respective terms served the
county faithfully and the efficiency with
which their several offices were conducted
Is appreciated and recommends them to
the kindly consideration of the public
in the future.
Daniel Arms, the retiring clerk and
recorder has made Il record for himself.
He was d capable and obliging officer,
ever ready to please and accommodate
the patrons OF his office He is gentle
man in whom anyone can contide.
Many citizens of the county when in
need of advice concerning public mat
ters wade it a practice to seek Dan
Arms, and they never left disappointed
they always got the information sought.
Few counties ever had such all efficient
. and Conscientious clerk and recorder,
and while the people voted to change he
will be missed nevertheless His sue
cessor, John Neu. Is young business
man who will no doubt make every en-
deavor to follow the worthy example
set by his predecessor, and 1t is hoped
that he will succeed to endear himself
to the public in as marked a degree as
did Dan Arms. Mr.. Neu takes hold of
the Office with everything in tirst-class
condition and will experience no odlcul-
.iv in keeping the county's records of the
future in line with those of the past.
a. A Fairbairn, the retiring clerk OF
the court, has served the county for a
number of years. He had been an
officer of the county since its creation.
The first office held by him was that of
treasurer, which he filed with fidelity
for two terms. During the past four
Years ne served as clerk of the district
court, ano it is pleasant to state that no
official duties have ever been performed
in I, more business like manner than his
He was ever prompt and faithful and
3eft no work undone that came under
his official jurisdiction. The public will
aver bear kindly feeling for Mr.. Fair
BARN and he will no doubt be remem-
hpred in the future. He surrendered
his office to J. Z. Abbey, his successor,
in first class condition, and with the
work all up to date.
:. Josiah Shull surrendered the Office of
county attorney to his successor, Judge
-. NJ. Durfee Mr.. Shull's record for at
torney of Granite county is an excellent
one. Aided by his counsel the county
has steererl clear of litigation, old claims
vera amicably adjusted and many
dollar was saved to the county through
his good Judgment. If the county will
in the future do as well the public will
be quite contented.
J.. H. Wells, the retiring assessor, was
"a conscientious public servant, He en-
lpavored to serve all alike and his as
aessnents have been us uniform as the
average human being could make them.
