ALCORN VERY SORE
 ON THE PRESIDENT
MISSISSIPPI REPUBLICAN SAYS HIS HEART SINKS AS HE SEES THE HUMILIATION BROUGHT UPON PEOPLE UF SOUTH.

New Orleans. November S.-(Special)- The New Orleans Picayune prints in telegram from Clarksdale, Miss.' letter from William A. Alcorn, Jr, member of the republican state committee of Mis- sissippi in response to a request from A. J. Hyde for an indorsement of his ap- plicaton for reappointment as poStmaster of Meridian, Miss. MT. Al>9rn says:
 T am republican from principle, patriot devoted to my state and country, and would suffer most anything if con- tributed to it's honor and glory, but when I see such a man as MT. Roosevelt in the executive chair at Washington, doing, i seems to me, all he can to bring shame and humiliation, not only upon the people of Mississippi and the nation, but upon the south and the nation my heart sinks.
 Tt is unnecessary for me to enumer- ate the many things he is constantly do- ing to fan the flames of discord, disorder, sectonalsm, and party disintegration; for as public and party man you should be familiar with them ana should be the last man in the world to ask him for a favor.
 Suppose I should indorse you by writ ing MT. Roosevelt-what would it amount to? Would he not immediately respect fully refer it to Edgar S. Wilson, dem- oerat, a referee-Roosevelt referee-for approval? And what would Mir Wilson think of the indorsement? It would amount to nothlng-absolutel nothing for unless Mr. Wilson, the democrat, was your friend and wanted to give you the
 
 position you would not get 1t, even though every republican in the state indorsed 1 you and asked that you be appointed Think of that A referee in politics! A democrat as republican referee-a demo- crat who Is the right-hand man, the man Friday of a republican President of the United States.
 "Quite an innovation, isn't it? It cer- 1 tainly is to the old republicans who have fought in the ranks and stood the steel the gaffs, that have been plunged into them because of their fidelity. How can l you or any man that bears allegiance to the republican party stand such thing 1 or approve of such a thing by asking for office or indorsing q man for office l while such a President sits in the eXecu- l tive chair?
 "When our lamented and much-loved Mckinley was President the white people and the negroes got along peaceably and on the very best of terms, and there was no race prejudice or other things that caused strife or trouble, and had he lived the party in the south would have grown and prospered and all would have been well. Indeed, 1t was a common thing to hear stanch, rock-ribbed democrats say that as their principles were embodied in William Mckinley, they were in fact republicans, and you know that many l of the best democrats in the state and nation voted for him in his two cam paigns for the presidency. He would have republicanized the south"

made by the officers for the purpose of arresting the Indians. He added that he would go to Newcastle and investigate the Indian uprising.
 Senator Warren said in his telegram that six Indians were killed, six wound ed and about the same number cap tured. He confirms the report of the death of the sheriff. One of the Indians of the party named Smith, was a former student at the Carlisle Indian school. There were, he says, two fights, one on Friday or Saturday, and the other on Sunday evening. The other sheriffs posse is still in pursuit of the Indians and the latter have been reinforced Tt looks squally," says the senator in his mes sage, and I fear further trouble"
