Russian complications may lead to
the resignation of Mr.. John Hay as
secretary of state, says a Washington
press dispatch.
The probability OF such retirement
is being discussed in Washington and
MANY believe that it is the only solu-
ton by which the secretary can be re-
lieved from the embarrassing position
in which he has been placed by the
stand openly taken by President
Roosevelt in the Jewish petition and
Manchurian question.
President RooseYelt's declaration
that the petition will be forwarded on
receipt and that Russia will be called
to account for Manchurian aggressions
was made without consultation with
and in direct opposition to the wishes
of Secretary Hay.
The pet project of Secretary Hay
ever since he entered the cabinet has
been to bring about an open door poll

PROMISED THEM PRESENTS.
Long They Waited, but Presents
Did Not Show Up.

The arrest of couple of white men
at Thomasville last week on a
warrant sworn out by parties at
Valdosta reveals another instance in
which intelligent people are gulled by
itinerant fakirs. The men were
charged with cheating and swindling,
but the people who bad them arrested
were willing to drop the prosecution if
the men would restore to them their
"hard earnings" AS the evidence
was hardly sufficient to convict the
men the court officers thought best to
drop the matter and let the men go.
The evidence which was to be intro
duced showed that the meh had been
selling medicine in the county, and
that they had hundreds of customers.
They would sell the medicine, collect
the money for it and promise the buy
err handsome present to be sent from
the factory later on. This is what
caused the trouble. None of their
customers have received their pres
ents. One man was promised an S6C
organ as a present to accompany S.
worth of medicine, which he bought
and paid for. The medicine was de-
livered on the spot, but the present
has not been seen since.

MISSISSIPPI VIEW OF CONGRESSMAN GRIGGS
Stateourna Says He Justly Regarded One
the AbIest Men and Most Profound Statesmen the
Democratic Side of the House of Representatives

and are brave enough to face the
truth.
Mr.. Longino keeps on saying that
the race issue has no place in the dis
cussion incident to campaign for the
| United States senate. MIR. Money in
sists that the negro problem is the
most important question with which
the publicist, the statesman and lover
of his race has to deal. The constitu-
tion of 1890 did not solve it, because it
is not confined to Mississippi; nor, in
deed, is 1t confined to the southern
states; its ramifications are infinite,
and it makes its manifestations in Del
aware and Oklahoma, in Kansas and In
Illinois, as well as in Texas and Mis-
slssippi. But Mr.. Longino says that
there is no race issue, because the
constitution of Mississippi in 1890 pro-
vided an educational qualification for
suffrage, and doubtless our governor
would cheerful!y assure Mr.. Griggs
that if Georgia would adopt the same
panacea there would be no need for
any further discussion of the subject.
And we will add that we believe that
our governor would be entirely honest
in that assurance. We can imagine
Mr.. Longino from his place in the SEN
ate, if such place were conceivable,
when the negro problem in it's sec
tional. social and national aspect came
up, as it constantly does, for discussion
cheerfully assuring the senate that
''the constitution of 1890" finally set
tied this question. and it was not
worth while to further consider it !
Congressman Griggs lives in state
where there is no Constitution of
$780," yet the negro has no more po-
litical power or influence there than
in Mississippi. He says that the ne
gro problem is the stupendous problem
of our civilization. Mr.. Money lives
under the aegis of the constitution
that Mr.. Longino scurries behind, and
out of profond thought and patriotic
solicitude he takes the same view that
Mr.. Griggs does. But Mr.. Longino
ehirrups that he does not see it, and
therefore it does not exist. Is it pos
sible that the governor hopes to i'm
part his blindness to the people of
Mississippi, and in the darkness thus
induced find his way TO seat in the
United States senate?

OUR PACE TOO FAST?
A Physician Says Fast Living

Leslie's Weekly: The New Haven

everything by the clock and rushing
from one appointment to another at
literally electric speed. "If we are

"unless we are seriously i'll, we fight

something very much like it has often
been said before, but the warning

by, some will hear and heed before it
is too late. With all our many and

AN INTERESTING STORY.
Why Cleveland Was Not Put on
Strike Board.

The following story from the New
Yord Evening Post is good one
whether it is true or not:
ga hithero unpublished story of the
Anthracite strike settlement is now well
worth telling. When he made up his
list of the members of the commission
for submission to the coal operators AMI
to President Mitchell, President
Roosevelt did not have the name of
Judge Gray at the top. He had there
the name of Grover Cleveland. MIR.
Cleveland had been communicated with
and had consented to serve. The pres
ident was delighted with this selec-
ton for chairman. He believed the
appearance of the former president at
the head of the strike-settling body
would command the respect and ad-
Therefore he was very much surprised
when one of his advisers suggested
that the selection of Mr.. Cleveland
might be a political mistake. The
president asked what he meant by that
II mean," said the gentleman, "that
Mr.. Cleveland is presidential POSI-
bility. If he serves at the head of the
commission it will bring him very
prominently before the public and may
end in making him the democratic
nominee in 1904"
"Nonsense!" exclaimed the presi-
dent.
At that moment Secretary Root ap-
peared, and the president asked him
what he thought of it. Mr.. Root
stroked his chin during few moments
of meditation, and then replied:
II agree with the gentleman who
has just spoken"
Without another word President
Roosevelt grabbed lead pencil and
drew a line through the name OF
Grover Cleveland.

The following editorial from the
Meridian Miss State-Journal in ref
erence to Congressman Griggs will be
of interest to News readers:
Congressman Griggs of Georgia is
justly regarded as one of the ablest
men and profoundest statesmen upon
the democratic side of the house:
he has been abundantly discussed
as Mr. Williams strongest riv-
al for the minority leadership; he be-
longs to that remnant of thoughtful
and earnest men who still strive to
sustain the traditions and reputation
of the old south in craftsmanship as
differentiated from politics. When
such man speaks on large questions
the nation listens to profit by what he
says.
A few days ago Mr.. Griggs delivered
an address before the Georgia School
Technology on the race issue, which
is commended to the perusal of Mr..
Longino and others who deny the ex-
istence of such an issue. In effect, the
distinguished Georgian treated the
question as the most serious and diff
cult that ever summoned the genius
of the Anglo>SaxOn race to solution;
he dealt with it seriously, analytically
q nd f1vs hn ,,nf,,5nl 70 %nll he
educated young men that the negroes
place was permanently fixed in our
economy, and that no task-work in
this direction would be required of
them; but on the contrary he admon-
ished them that the question loomed
larger than ever upon the horizon of
the present and future, and must needs
demand all of their strength, their in.
telllgence and their patriotism to set
tie it Alright.
Men not brave enough or strong
enough to grapple with any social or
political menace and try to avert it,
men who shut their eyes to truth be-
cause it is unsightly, may chirrup
away and deny the existence of danger
and facts; but that does not alter the
memorable procession of events nor
the final catastrophe that must be the
inevitable sequence of the chirruping.
Will the people of Mississippi listen to
this complacent hedge-row music or
open their eyes and ears to the truth
propounded by the men who think

MOULTRIE TO VOTE ON BONDS.
Want to Erect School Building
and Put in Sewage.

Moultrie will have bond election
at an early date. The exact date has
not vet been determined but the city
council passed resolution at its meet.
ing Thursday night to order an cleo
ton for the people to vote on an issue
of bonds to the amount of $4,000.
The council entertained committee
from the school board, which asked
for bonds to the amount of $4,000 to
build new school building. The re
quest was granted and when the ques~
tion is submitted to the people, they
will also be called upon to say wheth~
er an additional $4,000 In bonds
shall be sold to extend the light and
water service and to put in a system
of sewage.
There has been sentiment in the
city for some time in favor of bonds
for sewers. There has also developed
opposition to the scheme.
1t is supposed that the citizens Of,
Moultrie are practically unanimously.
in favor of bonds for a school house.
However, an election will determine
tie whole matter. 1t is probable that
the order for the election will be franz
ed by the city attorney and submitted
to the next meeting and will be acted
upon at once.-Moultrie Observer.
Moullrie is a new but progressive
little city and she has already spent
considerable money tor public improve
ments. She has the spirit that wins.
