STANDING BY THE NEGRO.
President Roosevelt Gives the
"Lily White" Republicans
a Setback.

WASHINGTON, November TO-
The President to-day removed
Julian H. Bingham from his posi-
tion as collector of internal revenue
for Alabama, and appointed Jo-
seph A. Thompson, Democrat, a
brother of Congressman Thomp-
son, to succeed him. The signif.
canoe of the appointment lies in
the fact that Bingham is the Re-
publican national committeeman
for Alabama, and his removal can
not be construed except as a rebuke
by the President of the attempt to
eliminate the negro from the
political field in the South. Mr..
Thompson's appointment had the
Endorsement of Prof. Booker T.
Washington, and represents, there
fore, his opposition to the attempt
to exclude his race from participa-
ton in politics. In fact, Mr..
Thompson may be considered the
practical appointee of Prof. Wash
ington. The action in this case
follows closely the removal of
William Vaughan, United States
attorney of Alabama, who was
succeeded by Mr.. Routhac, gold
Democrat, who had the indorse-
ment of Prof. Washington also.
Mr.. Vaughan was removed because
he had been instrumental in pro-
noting the white mans Republican
party scheme.
Postmaster General Payne visited
the White House to-day and as he
left the executive offices made
public the following statement:
"The change in the Office of
collector of internal revenue for
the district of Alabama in nowise
reflects on the integrity or ability
Aof Mr.. Bingham, the incumbent of
1 She office. 1t is one of those
things which occasionally happens
in politics. The position taken by
the Republicans of Alabama at
their recent state convention, as
understood by the Republicans OF
the North, is looked upon as q
perversion of the fundamental
principles of the Republican party
and Mr.. Bingham is in measure
held responsible for that action
hence the change.

implements; by buying less and
producing more of what we use on
our farms; by diversifying our

cereals, of vegetables, of fruits,
etc. that more of our young peo-
pie be urged to undertake the cul-

in many localities the soil is pecu-
llarly adapted to the culture of the
grape, the berry, the apple, etc.
"Resolved further, That we thank
Pres. B. F. Allen for calling this
convention and promise that we
shall do our utmost TO carry out

"Whereas we are living in state

Three Lenten weddings enlivened the
monotony somewhat this week, with
out them the social wheels would have
ceased to revolve. Thus far Hymen
has not announced any similar events
for next week so there is likely to be
absolute stagnation.
At an engagement dinner recently
given in New York occurred pretty
little ceremony which might well be
taken for an example. After the mother

of the bride had formally announced
the favored young man, the future
father-in-law rose and presented the
young lady with a silver door key, the
key to his home, saying that he want
ed her to feel perfectly at home in his
domicile, and hoped that she would
cross the threshold often and unbidden
The key was hung from a silver chain
with a silver ball at one end. The ball
was to be drawn through the belt that
the bride might wear her household
keys upon the chain.
