Washington, April 1O.-Tl1e post
office at Panther, Dallas county, has
been discontinued; mail to Dallas Cen
ter.
James III. Davis, of Member has been
appointed an Industrial teacher at the
Sac and Fox Indian agency school
farm.
Iowa congressman have been given
the general impression that Congress
man Haugen is neither displeased nor
startled with the candidacy Of Dun
can Rule. whose candidacy has sur
prised all others in the Fourth district
and Mr.. Haugen speaks of Mr.. Rule in
very high terms. and says that Rule
is his friend" Whether this means
more than the two words simply Is
matter of conjecture. The impression
grows apace, however, that Mr.. Rules
candidacy was foreknown to Mr..
Haugen, and meets with his warm APP
probation. because it might seem to
strengthen Haugen's chances for re-
nomination, as 1t is we'll known that
Rule has no aggressive following In the
district.

WASHINGTON. D. c., November To-
President Roosevelt threw another bomb
Into the camp of the Southern Republi-
cans to-day by removing Julian H Bing-
ham from the orice of Collector OF In
@tcrnal Revenue for Alabama and Hp-
pointing in his place Joseph \. Thomp-
son. 4 Democrat. and a brother of Rep
1esentative Thompson. Thompson was
endorsed by Booker Washington Bing-
bs1n is Republican national committeeman
from Alabama, and the cause OF his re-
moval was his participa ton in the recent
convention. which ixeiuded the negro
from Republican party councils in that
State. This case is similar to that Of
United States District Attorney William
Vaughan. of Alabama, who was replaced
by Mr. Roulhac, Democrat. not long
ago.
In taking this action against the lilly
whites Roosevelt has made complete
change in his policy. When Senator
Pritchard was at Oyster Bay last sum
mer the President gave him to UNDER
stand that the elimination of the negro
from the Republican party in the South
ana the building up of a white mans
rarty there was what he wished
Going back to North Carolina, Senator
P.itchard shut the negro out of the State
convention Later the Alabama conven-
ton was held and Pritchard attended 1t
as specially invited speaker Following
the example of North Carolina and In
spired by the presence of Pritchard, the
Alabama Republicans excluded the negro.
No adverse comment had followed the
North Carolina convention. so they
thought they were not only safe. but
they were carrying out the expressed
wishes OF Roosevelt.

fered. If the fight is made on old lines
it will fail. If new bill is offered, which
is regarded as bad as the other, Gov

No matter who is elected tc Congress in
the Ninth District, it seems the purpose
of each side to pursue the matter to the
bitter end.
Each hour the situation has grown more
complex, and recrinlination has followed
grave charges until the election has been
surrounded with all the bitterness of the.
keenest political aninlosity.
The atmosphere, however, seemed clear
ing and peace lowering near. when the

bitter statements from the Republican

and tampering with the returns. aud still
later reply from Democratic headquar-
ters of recrimination, and the looked for
dove of peace had folded its wings for
more quiet season.
Lastly comes the statement that the
n1andamus to count the votes of the
thrown cut precincts will meet with de-
rnurrer because the Democrats want the
matter settled as a precedent, and the
contest will be transferred to the Su-
preme Court If 1t goes no further.

In view OF the legal questions that have
