MONROE DOCTRINE
DON'T PAY DEBTS
CANNOT BE USED TO SWINDLE
AMERICA is TOLD.

WASHINGTON, Saturday. Dec. co.
Senators who have carefully studied
recent events in Venezuela and read
the correspondence that has passed be-
tween the authorities of Venezuela and
foreign governments whose citizens
have made large loans or investments
in Venezuela, express the opinion that
President Castro and other leaders in
the Venezuela government have ignor-
ed financial obligations with a feeling
of safety merely because they have
felt sure of American protection from
interference.
Senators who are in the confidence OF
the administration declare that before
the present affair is over Venezuela
will be taught a lesson that will pre-
vent any repetition of her course in
respect to her responsibility for loans.
This course is regarded as absolutely
necessary for the protection of the
United States in the future from for
eign complications in relation to South
American republics.
1t is believed that should the United
States interfere in Venezuelan matters
this time without the utmost care in
declaring herself, there would be the
greatest danger that throughout Cen
trail and South America the republics
would become Indifferent to their finan-
cial obligations, and whenever any
move were made to force them to live
up to their agreements they would
treat it with Indifference and merely
cali upon the United States for protec-
ton.

time with the Alaskan and came into
the harbor later in the day. The

coast. She has general cargo for this
port.

WASHINGTON, Saturday, Dec. 20
Secretary Root will retire from the
cabinet about January !, according TO
q statement today coming from an
unusually reliable source. Coupled
with this statement is the further de-
claratiOn that Governor Taft will be-
come secretary of war.

prospective retirement and appoint
ment is impossible, 1t Is known that
Secretary Root has only awaited the
established of civil government in the
Philippines and the completion of the
work undertaken by him in the war
department to resign and resume the
practice of law. This desire has been
intensified by the recent death of Mrs
Roots father.

Negros, the Sufferers.

If the Administration is as anxious
for the welfare of the negro as it pre-
tends to be there ought to be a re-
opening Of the Indianola, Miss, post
Office at an early date, for according
to information received by Senator
McLaurin, the negro population in
Indianola and vicinity is just at pre-
sent suffering more by the Presidents
action than are the white citizens. 1t
seems that the Administration has for
all practical purposes lost in the tight
which it inaugrated on account OF al
legged threats Of violence on the part
of certain citizens unknown against
the postmaster, Minnie Cox. The
President sought to demonstrate to the
population that they would suffer
great inconvenience as the result OF
their attempt to rid themselves of the
negro postmaster. The actual workings
of the Presidents policy has proved
just the contrary. When the President
closed the post-ofice the white ele-
ment of the city combined and engag-
ed carrier to bring the mail for them
from Greensburg, a distance OF thirty
miles. This plan has been followed
since and has worked satisfactorily.
All letters addressed to white citizens
of Indianola left at Greensburg have
been taken from that town to Indian
ola by special carrier and delivered.
It seems that since the Indian
ola Office was closed large number OF
letters have been sent to the Green's
burg post Office addressed to colored
men and women in Indianola and
vicinity. Nearly all of these remain
undelivered, the negroes of the neigh
borhood having made no arrangements
for the special delivery of their mail.
Many Of the letters awaiting call are
said to contain money due to planta-
tions. Recently they have been adver-
tised in the local Mississippi papers as
being uncalled for. This action, how
ever, has no effect and prctically no
calls have been made for them. The
Post-office Department is therefore IN
quandary. Communications have
passed between the Mississippi postal
authorities and the department here
and the result will probably be that
the letters will be sent to the dead let
ter Office. The department is thus
placed in an embarrassing position. In
formation as to the matter was recelv-
ed by Senator McLaurin from citizen
of Indianola today. Mr.. McLaurin
says the only way the tangle can be
Strengthened out is by the reopening
of the Office. He argues that as the
Mayor of the city has given assur-
ances that if the Cox woman returns
she will be protected there is no valid
reason why the Office should not be re-
opened. uisviile-Courier Journal.

Meeting of Board of Education.

The City Board of Education held
a meeting at 6 o'clock p. m., Thurs
day with Chairman E. e. Haynsworth
Messrs. A. 3. Stuckey, M. Noise, n.
O'Donnell and Supt. S. H. Edmunds,
present.
Mr., Noise reported that he had, by
request of the Chairman, consulted the
Daughters of the Confederacy in refer
ence to the proposed erection of a
school building on the north side OF
Monumental square, and that they re-
fuse to permit another building on
that site. The board requested Mr..
Noise to look elsewhere for a suitable
lot.
Supt. Edmunds reported that the
Freedmen Board of Missions of Pitts
burg, Pa, under whose auspices the
Kendall Institute of this city is con-
Quoted had become dissatisfied with
the management of that school. In con-
sequence of this, they had revoked
the commission of the Principal and
had sent their Vice President, DR..
Kennedy to Sumter few days since tc
investigate and report conditions,
with the possible result of closing the
school.
In this emergency Mr.. Edm1nds had
offered to take the Institute under his
superintendence without remunera-
tion. The board has accepted the ofe1
for remainder of the present term, and
given Mr.. Edmunds full authority OF
management. TIE board approved
the course pursued by Mr.. Edmunds.
A petition was presented by colored
citizens for better school building fol
their use. The petition was received
as Information and will be reserved
for future consideration.

congress at the capital.
"I suppose the life in Washington is

starter.
.'Ob, yes" the congressman readily
admitted.
"But it costs good deal more:"
Rather more, yes. ("

though:''
"Oh, yes, considerably.
"You meet very different people,
too?''
"Decidedly.''
"Men OF national reputation are
numerous?:"
Everywhere about the place"
Much bigger men than we have
with us?:''
"oh., yes, or they wouldn't gel
here
"Men of wider scope on all ques
tions?''
"Yes they have to be. -
The state solon was silent for
moment.
"After ALL" he said, with some
show of pride, "do you think they are
much abler men than those who have
not yet reached beyond the limit O.
their state?''
The congressman wasn't silent :
second.
"Well, 1 should say they were" ht
said emphatically. By Jove, I wa:

NEGRO EDITORS WARNING TO RAGE.
Pampering of a Few Leaders Can
not Aid Masses and May Cause
iii Will Between Races.

Washington, Feb. "A Norfolk
telegram to the Times says: John E.
Dickerson, Jr., nergo editor of the
Norfolk News and Advertiser, who
held Endorsements from Bishop Ran
dolph, Episcopal Church, Congress
man Maynard, Gov. Montague and
other prominent Virginians, to be
used when, in the near future, he
visits leading cities of the country to
seek aid in establishing large negro
paper for the dissemination of his
ideas, takes up in today's issue of his
paper President Roosevelt's attitude
toward the negro. He says:
"While there is nothing we desire
more than the advancement Of the race,
we fail to see wherein the pampering Of
a few of the leaders can aid or tend
to the welfare of the masses. And if
such is detrimental to the peace and
good will now existing between the
races of this country, we are plain to
say that, as between a Presidential
invitation to the sole individual of the
negro race and the welfare Of the great
masses Of them by all means let the
Presidents invitation go.
"The News has promised to speak
the truth to its people, not that part
of the truth which they like to hear,
but the whole truth, naked and un-
adorned. We feel and, know that
most unfortunately there is no people
upon the earth less willing or inclined
to sacrifice for the benefit of their
own race than the negro.
where IS the negro great enough
or grand enough to say to Mr.. Roose-
velt: I thank you, sir, for the honor,
but my race is toiling manfully up
ward and I do not wish to disturb
them or hinder them by exciting more
race preiudices?'
"Let the negro look to it that when
he bursts the bonds of ignorance that
he does not enmesh himself with the
far-worse fetters Of false pride and
empty vanity"
