THAT Mr.. Roosevelt is determined to
humiliate the people of Charleston, 5.
c.. is shown by his action in the Crum
case. The President nominated Crum to
be collector of the port of Charleston and
the Senate committee towhom the noml-
nation was referred, approaching the
feelings of the South Carolina people,
reported adversely upon the nomination.
This would have given Mr.. Roosevelt an
opportunity of withdrawing Crum's
name and appointing white man to the
nosition. but he sternly refused TO do so,
and says the Senate must act. In case
the Senate should vote to reject the
name, it is not certain what the Presi-
dent will do. but there is no uncertainty
as TO his future action in case the Senate
declines to vote on the question and al
lows the matter to go over without action
until after the 4th Of March. In that
case it is given out that the President
will Immediately designate Crum as
recess appointee to the Charleston col
iectorship, and Crum VII take the oath
of office and enter upon the discharge Of
his duties. Why white man whose
mother was a southern woman, should
delight in appointing colored men
to high positions in the South against
the earnest protest of the white people
of that section passes all comprehension.

Few PEOPLE are simple-minded
enough to imagine that there's any value
in antitrust legislation emanating from
such trust advocate as Senator Eiki"s'
Of West Virginia. When he has any
thing to do with antitrust legislation,
sucb as that which has just passed under
his authorship, says the Philadelphia
Record, it may be taken for granted
that the object is to obstruct legislation
that might have some substantial effect
in restraining the greed OF monopoly.

STONE MAN FOUND IN RIVER
Dyersburg, Tenn, now has genuine
sensation on show. A few days ago a
petrifed man was found and dug out of
the bank of the Forked Deer river, a
short distance below town. He was
found by one of the residents of the
county while he was rowing down the
river in a skiff. The rover saw the
mans feet sticking out of the bank and
went and procured the aid of some of
the nearby jewellers, dug out the man,
put him in two-horse wagon and about
the first thing he did was to offer to sell
the specimen-as fine a specimen of
petrifaction as was ever seen-for the
sum Of $50. The finder soon found
purchaser to pay him s25 for hall
interest, but the crowds gathered around
his wagon in such numbers as to awaken
him to the suspicion that he had made
valuable find, and he sold the other half
interest for considerably higher price.
