THE PRESIDENTS UNCLEs.

Some of the Grand Army of the Re-
public people are once more viewing
with alarm" Considering how easily
alarmed these veterans are, it is a
wonder that they fought as we'll as
they did three dozen years ago. The
object of their present solicitude is the
President of the United States. They
are apparently afraid that Theodore
Roosevelt of New York is going to
turn back the hands of time and revive
again the dead issues that led to the
war between the states, himself TAX
ing the part of the South. Isn't it
ridiculous? But what else could Capt.
F. II. Challis have meant when he
addressed Louis Bell Post. G. A. R.,
of Manchester, N. H., in these words:
Il confess that it was with some mis-
givings that l read the letter which
President Roosevelt wrote to a South
ern friend, in which he said that he
was proud of the fact that two of his
uncles served the Confederate cause,
one as an admiral in the Confederate
navy, while the other had fired The
last gun on the Alabama. / confess
have some misgivings as to the flu.
ture. I don't like to see the pendulum
swing that way"
The President has taken notice of
the matter, and through the medium
of Private" Dalzell of Ohio, has made
reply to his New Hampshire critics.
He reafirms his pride in his uncles,
and gives good reasons for his kindly
feeling towards the South, as one of
the great geographical divisions of the
country. This. however, is without
undue bias, and is totally lacking in
significance respecting political issues
of forty years ago.
And the President has reason to be
proud of his uncles They were
sturdy Americans, as true as steel TO
their duty and devoted to the cause
which they believed to be right. They
gave their time and talents, and would
freely have given their lives, for the
furtherance of that cause. In addl-
ton to devotion, they brought brains
to the service. One of them was the
financial agent of the Confederate
government in London, in which
ity. He met and mastered difficulties
that would have overwhelmed less
resoureeful and persistent man. The
other uncle took part in one of the
most famous naval battles in the his
tory of our country, in which he con.
Quoted himself like the intrepid Amer
lean that he was.
President Roosevelt is proud of his
uncles because of their intrinsic per>
sonal worth. They had deep convic-
lions respecting the merits of the strug-
gle between the states. and they cast
their lots with their native land. The
President honors them for the courage
of their convictions, no doubt. He had
no other reason in mind. His pride
in and honor for his uncles,
however, would not commit him
to their Confederate policies, even
II those policies existed. But the war
has been over for nearly the length
of an average lifetime; its issues are
forever buried and the country is re.
united That being true--which none
can deny-these vaporings in Louis
Bell Post Of Manchester N. H., are not
. short Of Stiffness.

THAT ALARAMA APPoINTMENT.

The comment on the appointment of
/ Ex-Gov. Jones of Alabama to the po-
sition of a United States District Judge
that is appearing in the newspapers is
interesting. No doubt President Roose-
welt finds it so. Strange as it may seem
1 even the Republican papers appear to
I think he did the right thing. Ordi-
| narily they would criticise a Republic
can President for appointing a Demo-
/ crat and an ex-Confederate to so re-
! sponsble and honorable a position.
Some of the Democratic papers. par
ticularly Democratic papers in the
South are specializing as to the reason
for the Presidents course in this mat
ter One of them wonders If he un-
derstands the negro question and made
the appointment in the light of such
understanding. Another feels certain
that the appointment will have the eff
feet of giving the Republican party
better standing in the South-will. in
fact, have a tendency to cause the
white people of the South to divide po-
litically.
take into account these various things
which the newspapers are now suppos-
ing he did in making the appointment.
In the first place, it must be remem-
bered that the President Is an ardent
civil service reformer. He is a firm
believer in the merit system-that the
offices should be given to the very best
10 T.
place, when he became President he
declared that he would administer the
great office to which he had been called
so as to promote the welfare of the
whole people.
Gov. Jones was recommended by both
Democrats and Republicans. Nobody
had any fault to find with him. It
was admitted that he possessed the
ability to fill the office successfully, and
the President himself knew that he
was a man of high character and that
he had a clean record. In fact lead
ing men in Alabama of all politicl
parties united in saying that a better
man could not be found than Gov.
Jones for United States District Judge.
OnueF the CIRCUMSTANCES the HTeSl-
dent was certain of doing the right
and the proper thing by appointing
him. Both the white people and the
negroes of Alabama are satisfied, and
the President has carried out his pol
icy of appointing the applicant best
qualified for the position. There is
therefore no occasion for hunting for
other reasons for the appointment.
1t is doubtful if the President had
any idea of strengthening the Republi-
can party in the South by the appoint
ment or of showing that he had a bet
ter understanding of the negro ques-
tion than some of the other leaders of
his party. Indeed, it is a question
whether the appointment will have any
effect whatever on the political situa-
ton in the South, except to strengthen
the belief of the Southern people that
it is the purpose of the President to
put good men in the offices, even if
he has to seek for them in the ranks
of the Democratic party.

Even the Alps Are Up-to-Date.

pice of st. Bernard" said Mr.. Gates.
When about an hours climb from the
pass he was stopped by a dense fog
He waited gleefully, expecting to be
rescued by the dogs, and so be able
to come back to us with a thrilling
story. The dogs did not come, however,
and the fog partly lifted. So he re-
sumed his climb, and finally arrived
at the hospice, where he was welcom-
ed warmly by the brothers. His first
question was:
Why did you not send the dogs
out in so dangerous a fog?"
He nearly dropped from his chair
when one of the brothers said:
You did not telephone u.s.
Telephone you? he calculated.
Yes was the answer. You see,
shelters have been built all along the
climb, and each shelter has been pro-
vided with telephone. If fog comes
up all one has to do is to go to the
nearest shelter and telephone. We inn
mediately send man and dog to that
shelter. The dog carries bread, cheese
and wine. AS we know at just what
shelter the climber is no time is lost
in looking for him."

From the ST. Louis Republic.
He was just a good for nothing,
An encumbrance to the earth,
And there seemed no slightest semb-
lance
OF a reason for his birth;
He was lazy, old and shabby,
And the work that he had done
In his life you might have crowded
In the time from sun to sun.
He would sit around and idle
When he knew at home the larder
Was empty-'twas the period
When he seemed to loaf the harder;
So his angry wife had left him
Many years before my song
And the neighbors said they wondered
How she'd stuck 1t out so long.
He was lazy, old and shabby
And his friends were very few,
But he loved the children dearly,
And the children loved him, too
And tho he wouldn't labor
In the ordinary way,
For a little man or woman
He would slave the livelong day.
He could make a bow and arrow
That would shoot most out Of sight,
And the sailing boats he fashioned
Were wonder and delight;
And he told the finest stories.
While he whitfield at his work,
OF gorillas, wolves and grizzlies.
And the wars against the Turk.
So when he died the children
Wept as tho their hearts would
break,
And I'm sure he's gone 10 heaven,
If it's only for their sake
He was lazy. old and shabby,
And a ne'er-do-well, l know,
But the Judge above is lenent,
And he loved the children so.

A Timely Old Story.

A Frankfort, KY, man, lunching last
Saturday with a party of dry goods
men at the Arkwright Club, says the
New York Commercial, got engaged
in a discussion of the ley-Sampson
matter and before the controversy got
very heated or acute he was reminded
of a tale that has been circulating
down in the blue grass country and is
known as the Proctor Knott rabbit
story"
'EX-Gov. Proctor Knott and John
Yerkes," said he, having agreed to tell
the tale, were discussing the claims of
Sampson and Schley to the credit of
smashing Cervera at Santiago. Mr..
Yerkes took the ground that all the
honor of that memorable conflict be-
fonged to Admiral Sampson and was
Inclined to entirely ignore Commodore
Schley's part in the affair.
The Governor listened until his COM
panion had finished, and then, with that
characteristic twinkle in his eye, said:
My dear sir. it is exceedingly graft
Tying to me to hear you take the posi-
ton you have in the matter. 1t is like
balm to my conscience and settles a
point that has worried me many a
day. I was walking through the woods
once with a boy friend of mine when
we saw rabbit run into a sinkhole.
We stood around the hole awhile; then
told the boy to watch while l went to
get some fire to smoke the rabbit out.
When | returned the boy had the rab-
bit. l took it away from him, claiming
that it belonged to me because l told
him to catch it if it came out That
was over fifty years ago and you are
the first man who has ever agreed with
me that the rabbit was mine. I feel
now that I was right in taking it and
my conscience is at rest

moments, then smiled a feeble smile

named, shall be marked and inclosed,
and the announcement was recently
made that the grave had been located
under the direction of the Daughters
of the American Revolution. But now
comes along the Rev. George G. Smith
of Vineville and says that there never
was such a woman in real life as
Nancy Hart; that the story of her he
roic deeds is merely fiction; that it
was forcefully told by a clever writer,
and thus got into history. Appleton's

Sir Thomas Upton has given out
some figures of the approximate cost
of his attempts to lift" the cup. Many
guesses have been made respecting Sir
Thomas expenditures. some of them
going above 100000 for the two ef-
forts. They were all too big, however.
Sir Thomas says that his cup hunt
ing expedition of 1899 cost him about
100000, all told. In that sum, how
ever, is included the cost of the SPLEEN
did steam yacht Erin, 100000. which
should not properly be charged in the
first ShaTHrocks expense account. The
second Shamrock was more expensive
than the first one, owing to the higher
grade of material used in her body,
and the hollow steel mast and spars
employed. The increased cost amount
ed to about 100000, making the new
boat represent an outlay of about $780,
900 for building and expenses up to the
end of the series of races. The actual
cost of the boat itself was in the
neighborhood of 1926. 900, or about twice
the cost of the Columbia.
