The Cedar Rapids Republican thinks
| 1t Wonderful how the heart of the old
south goes out toward the poor colored
man of the Philippines who has his
stomach filed with water to make him
disgorge who and why and where Unit
ed States soldiers were tortured to
death And equally wonderful is it how
Indifferent the heart of the south is to
the colored man of the south who hap
pens TO be lynched or burned at the
stake"
Speaking of the Registers desire to

"the time is not far distant when SER

never repay, in dollars and cents, the

As the years come and go and the boys
drop out Of the ranks here and there
the person who begrudges them the
small pension received is unworthy the
protection of the flag under which they
fought"

/ AROUSING JURY'S SYMPATHY.
In a case before the supreme court
of Texas, contention that a verdict
should be set aside on the ground that
the plaintiffs condition had aroused the
iury's sympathies, was denied There
was evidence that shortly after the in
jurt the plaintiff had had violent epaep-
tic commissions. and that his conditions
was due to his injuries, and that while
testifying plaintiff fell down in the
lccurt room, floor in Il CONFUSION in the
presence of the jury. Ten thousand dol
lars damages were awarded for the in
jury, and the court held that such an
award did not show that the jury's
sympathies had been aroused and the

for the illegal sale of liquor, in which
he claimed that it was sold under pre-
scription issued by him as a physician,
on being asked if he prescribed for the
purchase before selling the liquor, stat
ed that he always did so. but the pur
chaser. who was corroborated, testified
that he had no prescription when he
purchased the liquor, did not make any
request for one, and did not know

 In the same spirit as this benevolent person who was so eager for the reward of his devotion the Thomas Codlins known as the great powers of Europe are boosting their devotion to a certain Miss Columbia.

Hans Cod Ii sends out word that he rebuked the tempter who tried to make his disloyal to the beautiful girl in the season of her supposed distress.
 Jean Codlin varies the song somewhat. He is concerned principally in disputing the claims of John Codlin and in ascrib- ing the most precious jewel of friendship to Nicholas Romanoff Codlin. to whom he usually plays second fiddle. But he says a word for himself. also. and gives out the distinct impression that if he was not always a-devising pleasures" for Miss Columbia his, influence in the way of pcur-parlers was highly benet- cial.
 Nicholas Romanoff Codlin pays no at- tention to the second fiddle. but is decid- edly amicable on his own account. He knows nothing about any of the other Codiins and cares nothing about them. He is simply extremely desirous that it should be understood that he was in fact the original friend and remains, as ever, friendly.
 All this should be very gratifying to Miss Columbia. of course. but it is only within the last year that there has been a violent agitation within the domains of several of the European Codlins for a grand industrial combination against the United States. and selfish interest has more 10 do than sentiment with all those hurried pronouncements of friendship which might have been left unspoken xalr hau fs1r xvha fhaV are worth, and she does not cotton to Codlin."

That Fool Order.

Birmingham Ledger.
 We, the people of the United States, have an Indian commissioner named Jones. There are thousands of good people named Jones. but this Jones, while he may be good. is not wise. He has. recently issued an order that the Indians must wear clothes and not blankets and must cut their hair and not paint their faces.
 The fool order is as just and proper as if the fellow should order us to quit clothes and wear blankets and to let our hair grow long and plait it and to paint our faces. It is simply an outrage on a helpless set of savages. who die when forced into contact with civilization, much less when forced to change their habits of immemorial customs. They will but die the faster after they are forced to obey this order.
 It is but just to Jones to say that he says his order is only intended for those Indians who have been educated at the schools under government supervision. Still the mere fact that he has issued such an order shows him to be utterly unfitted for his position The Indian Commissioner should always be man who knows something about Indians. He should never be taken from a State east of the Mississippi
 Whenever an eastern man is taken for any office that touches the races of men in America. he does some silly thing like this. A man who knows nothing of a race different from his own, is unfit to govern that race. Usually such men utterly ignore race differences and in their very souls believe that there is no difference between tho races except color and habit, Such men never get over that idea except by actual contact with other races.

Grover Cleveland.

William Allen Whites Summing Up in
 February McClure's.
 Cleveland, as a statesman. will be re- membered as the man who stopped things. He checked abuses; he prevented bad men from accomplishing their schemes; he warded off impending calam- ity; he reduced revenues and saved taxes; he stayed the ebbing tide of public cred 1t: he throttled anarchy; he stopped for eign aggrandiZement on the American continent. Always he was the safety valve. He brought no new doctrine to the people; he had TO theory of govern ment-merelv an ideal of duty for the hour. He founded no institutions; in the political life of his time he constructed nothing. He will be remembered as one who every hour of the working day did what he thought was exactly right, and rent of the public business, but always to see that the business was wisely and honestly done. He was a modest indus trious public servant. who lived so close ly the motto, "A public office is a public trust that people came to believe that he invented it-which he did not. His name was never linked with any policy, and no law on tho statute books of his country is known as Cleveland's law He tried to efface his personality. but 1t was so strong and distinctive and pupgent with masculinity that it dominated every thing he did in spite of his aversion to public politics. Yet he will neVef be hero because he did not live a dramatic life. He must remain to posterity a dis embodied spirit. an ideal of honesty bear tional inspiration toward public virtue.

10 Those Subject to Payment of Poll
 Tax.

Tax.
 Hon. R. B. Kyle of Gadsden, was one of the most earnest workers in the Con- stitutional Convention. His interest in the welfare of the State has not abated since the new Constitution was adopted He has recently addressed the following card through the County papers to the people of Etowah and it Is good reading for every Democrat in every County in the State:
 about disfranchising white men. It was promised by all speakers that no white man who had not, and did not. disfran- chise himself would be disfranchised un- der the new Constitution.
 R. A. D. Dunlap, Dozier Thornton and N. D. Jelks have been appointed regis trars They will carry out the pledges made by the friends of the new Consti- tuition.
 But don't forget, fellow citizens. a reg istrars certificate is worthless unless yon have voluntarily paid S150 poll tax to Mir Barnes. Tax Collector for Etowah Coun- ty. before the 1st day of February. 1902.
 Without Mir. Barnes's certificate you cannot vote. Your failure to pay $15O poll tax before February 1, 1902. is to disfranchise yourself, and no one is re- sponsible but yourself.
 To entitle you tc vote at any election in Etowah in 1902 you must first secure a poll tax receipt before February l. 1902 and also register.
 Every white man in Etowah should make 1t his business to come to Gadsden and pay this poll tax.
 Remepber the Collector gets no fee. He receives your money and Issues your re- ceipt without charge. and he cannot force you to pay. But. no pay no vote.
 Don't complain if by your neglect to at- tend to this matter you arc barred from the ballot box. You simply disfranchise yourself-that is ail there is In 1t.
 R. B, Kyle.

Hysteria Among Protectionists.

 Men with national regulations and pre- sumably with intellects fairly scream with fright at the prospect of exposing of the Cubans and Filipinos. It is a pitiful plight for a nation which boasts of it's commercial supremacy to find itself in. Possibly if we had known in time what a terrible fate we were in viting when we released the Philippines we would have acted otherwise. As 1t is, the protectionist element in the country is in state of hysteria and almost goes into spasms when 1t thinks of theso weak and defenseless United States ex- posed to the competition of Cuba. the mighty, and of the all-powerful Philip. pines.
