The Ohio Democrat. (Logan, O. [Ohio]) 1886-1906, 1902-05-29
Hon. Robert Sharp.

Perhaps not more fttingly has
candidacy presented itself in this
district than that of Hon. Robert
Sharp of Fairfield for Congress
That great and historic county is
the new accession to our battered
and bleeding Eleventh, and comes
as new light upon the horizon of
the passing of GrosvenoriEm, and
not more graceful could be the
compliment than for one of her il
lustrious sons to be rendered the
Democratic nomination for con-
gress. In the personality of her
proposed standard bearer there
seems to be no mistake. AS Rep
rese ntative Of Fairfield, Hon. Rob-
srt Sharp has perhaps made more
slsepless nights for the infamy of
republican skulldugery in the state
sfrices than any man for years. He
saw the state treasury looted and
the spoils dished out unlawfully in
startling quantities, and being a
true citizen and an American rep
resentatiye of this American peo-
Pile, he introduced bill for an in
vestigation Of state offices, which
bill was defeated by Republican
votes because they were afraid of
such investigation. But the voice
of Robert Sharp so lifted the roof
from the state house and let the
people look in, that the state Off
ces have been partly arrested from
the looting, and thousands of dol
lars saved to the state.
With this record for right comes
old Fairfield presenting her son to
the Eleventh for congressional can
didacy and from the hills of Hosk-
ing she will hear loud "Amen,"
and we stand on tip-toe Ind bear
on and up her flag for Hon. Robert
Sharp, and we have every conf
dsnoe that the time of Grosvenor
rottenneSs and disgracsis at an end.
We are for Robert Sharp for this
nomination and we will make old
Hooking ring with the glad tidings
that y new district has been born
and upon its banner is inscribed
Democratic vistory, and the illus
trleus son Of old Fairfield, Hon.
Robert Sharp, will be our next rep
yeSentative in Congress.

CHARLESTONIANS DECLARE
THEY DON'T WANT CRUM
The President Will Have Trouble Over the Col.
IectorShip of the Port

Washington, Nov 1S.-When Presi-
dent Roosevelt returns to Washington
from his tramp through the Mississippi
jungles. after bear, he will find some
interesting correspondence awaiting
him, in connection with the appoint
ment of eolored man as. collector OF
the port of Charleston. 1t is under
stood the President. just before he
started on his cunning expedition, re-
ceived a dignified, but vigorous and
logical protest against the proposed
selection of DIR. Crum to preside over
the Charleston Custom House.
The protest was signed by nearly all
of the leading citizens of Charleston,
including many of the gentlemen who
were conspicuous in promoting The
pleasure and the comfort of the Pres
ident and his wife, on the occasion of
their visit to the Charleston EXPOSE
ton. The President wrote to several
of his personal friends in Charleston.
who Joined the protest against DR..
Crum, and asked them to give him

should not be appointed.
In Difference to the Presidents re-
quest TO be specific, his friends in
Charleston have replied with due cour-
tesy, but marked frankness, and it is
possible that after he considers the
subject further he may have differ
ent view of the situation in Charleston.
1t is also possible that he may take
a different view of the "colored" ques-
ton In the South.
Some of President Roosevelt's most
consistent and loyal political support
ers frankly confess that he has "wab-
bled" considerably in trying to shape
what might be termed his Southern
policy. There is no question in the
minds of those who discussed the sub
ject with him less than three months
ago, that it was his desire and expecta-
ton to assist in Improving the social
status of the Republican party in the
South He did not expect to establish
a Republican party in the South. which,
to quote an expression of former At
torney General Griggs, "Wil be all
white, but objected to it being etern-
ally black"
In justice to the President it must
be stated that he has persistently de-
clared that in making appointments to
federal Offices. North, South, East and
West he would not consider a reput-
able mans color bar to his selection.
At the same time he did not hesitate
to tell some of his political friends
that he was not favorably impressed
with the personality of the average
colored Republican politician from the
South who came to Washington seek
ing to control the federal patronage.
Unless Senator Pritchard' and other
white Republicans from the South, who
discussed the upbuilding of the
Republican organization in their
respective states, misunderstood
or misconstued the statements
The Savannah morning news., 1902-11-19

of the President the latter
has so far reversed himself as to leave
Senator Pritchard and his associates in
an extremely awkward position before
the country.
That the President has experienced a
change of political heart. regarding the
/ Southern situation, at the instance of
| Postmaster General Payne and John S.
Clarkson, Is generally conceded. II is
| not unreasonable to expect Postmaster
| General Payne, who Is a postmaster in
The art of partisan craftiness, to WELD
some Influence with the President. but
| 1t is beyond the comprehension Of many
of the most influential members of the
Republican organization. why the Pres
ident for a single moment should heark-
en- TO the advise or suggestions Of John
s. Clarkson.
Mr.. Clarkson was thoroughly dis
credited and repudiated by the Harri-
son administration for alleged treach-
cry TO his, chief He went to the Min
neapolis convention, supposed to be at
the head of the Harrison forces While
there It is known that he Joined the
anti Harrison movement engineered by
Platt Of New York. Quay of Pennsyl-
vania, Foraker of Ohio, and others
who, after. falling to defeat Harrison's
nomination with Blaine made a futile
attempt to stampede the convention. for
MCKINLEY who was chairman of the
convention. McISinley's courage pre-
vented the plot being carried out.
AS result Of Clarkson's disloyalty
TO Harrison, he lost his job as First
Assistant Postmaster General, and be-
came political Wandering Willie"
until he was recently brought forth by
Boss Platt. and appointed surveyor of
the port of New York. His official du-
ties are light, but he is expected to
do some heavy manipulating of colored
delegates from the South to the next
Republican convention. His task in
that direction seems to be fully under
stood and appreciated by the colored
leaders In the South, for they are fall
ing all over themselves in their en-
deaNors TO get next" to Gen. Clark
son. whom they declare is a very supe-
rior gentleman and very shrewd DO
litical organizer.
Postmaster General Payne is a
chronic agitator of the proposition to
reduce the number of Southern repre-
sentatives In Congress because of the
alleged ACKNOWLEDGMENT of certain ne
gro citizens. 1t has been his hobby
ever since he became a member of
the Republican National Committee
He has tried to drag the subject
before every Republican National Con-
Vehllon Tor the past ten years. He
tried to induce the late President Nc
Kinley to aid him in getting the sub
Ject before Congress. Mckinley and
the other leaders of the party would
have no part in Payne's plan to re-
vive sectional feeling, which the Span
ish War did much to wipe out. Now.
Foxy Grandpa" Payne is supposed to
have caught the young President in a
receptive mood and enlisted his SER
vices in an effort that is to be made
to renew the fight for a reduction of
the Southern representation in Con-
gress, IN the interest of the colored
brother.

WOMAN'S STRANGE STORY
OF Plans Formed to Assassinate the
President.


:. New York, Nov. 1S.-Mrs. Leno Dox-
heimer, who says that until she became
a member of the First Methodist Epis-
copal Church at Hoboken, two years
ago, she was associated with an anar-
chistic society of that place, and whose
mental balance is questioned, is re-
ported to have related to the Mothers
Club and the pastor of her church, a
story of alleged anarchist plottings
against the life of President Roosevelt
According to Mrs. Doxheimer, there
have been in the last fourteen months
three persons assigned to the task of
removing" the President. One OF
those, a Frenchman named Mellow, she
says, she persuaded to return to Paris,
where he was killed by a street car.
She processes to believe that he out
himself in the way of death in order
to spare his relatives the humiliation
of regarding him as a suicide.
Next, according to Mrs. Doxheimer
the assassin's task was assigned to a
man named Muller living in Avenue
b. this city, who a few days later,
died of poison, self-administered.
The last of the three designated for
the murderous work, Mrs Doxheimer
alleged. was a Mrs. Schroeder of Har-
lem, who also ended her life by means
of poison
Mrs. Doxheimer asserts that among
the plotters were several millionaires.
Her conception of what constitutes a
millionaire is indicated by her state
ment that these men owned houses"
Mrs. Doxheimer SAYS that recently
she has been under suspicion of her
former anarchistic associates. and that
they have followed her and her hus-
band about from place to place, so that
they have required the protection of
detectives.
Rev. Charles t. Meade, Mrs. Dox-
neimer's pastor. will make no state
ment regarding the so-called confess
sion.

New York, Nov. 1S-The second day
of the annual horse show at Madison
Square Garden brought out the same
large gathering as yesterday and pre-
scented an equally diversified pro-
gramme.
The morning was practically devoted
to the judging of hackney and trotting
breeding classes, neither of which was
very we'll filled. These hackneys were
generally acknowledged to be of poorer
class than usual.
In the afternoon Miss Alice Roose-
Welt was an attendant at the show, sit
ting in James w. Hyde's box. Miss
Roosevelt was also present at night.
An accident occurred at the show to-
day, in which Sidney ] Holloway was
severely hurt. He was riding his bay
gelding Allister during the exercise Pc
riod. when he was thrown from the
saddle. The horses hoof scraped his
nose and his wrist was severely
sprained. Mr.. Holloway narrowly es-

COURT AT VALDosTA.
Criminal Cases Receiving the Con-
sideration of Juries.

Valdosta, Ga, Nov. 1S.-Judge Han
sell is closing his career of Judge Of the
Southern Circuit. so far as this county
is concerned. this week. The Novem-
Der term of the Superior Court is be-
ing held, though only criminal cases
are to be tried.
The first criminal case on the docket
was against Mich Brice a young ne
gro. who was accused of killing Tom
Candidate at Hahira some time ago.
Brice set up a plea of accidental kill
ing and had several witnesses to bear
out his theory, though 1t was proven
that two or three shots were fired.
Brice had his rifle and was going to
shoot negro who had offended him.
when Candidate tried to prevent the
trouble While Candidate was be-
seeching Brice not to shoot the other
darkey, the rifle accidentally" went
off a couple of times, and Candidate
was killed.
The case went to the jury at little
after 10 o'clock this morning, and the
jury has been out ever since.
Another case to be tried will be that
of Arthur Wright, who killed a little
negro boy in the upper part of the
county. This was another accidental
killing, Wright protesting to believe the
gun was unloaded. He pointed il at
the boy and told him he was going to
kill him.
The grand jury will probably inves-
tigate a shooting scrape at Chambers
still last Saturday night About mid
night negro named Phillip Cooper
went to Mr.. Arthur Chandler to set
tie his account. stating that he was
going to work at another still. A row
ensued, and young Chandler emptied a
load of shot in the negro's thigh. Coop
er got hold of gun and broke it over
Chambers head, both men being Sc
verely wounded. The sheriff was
summoned to the scene, but found
everything peaceable.
