with some other great patriotic songs.
Mr.. Stone suggested that the Missouri
Daughters of the Confedsracy take the
matter in hand and rewrite the song
in more appropriate words.
Shouts OF disapproyal greeted the
motion. Scores of veterans were on
their feet in moment protesting
against any change. Then some one
started the rebel yell, and the whole
crowd was at it for several minutes
The yell did more than much Argyll

CHARLES JEFFCOAT MEETS
AWFUL FATE.
Shot to Death While Resisting
Arrest I'm Alabama.

The closing chapter in the life
of a desperate known as "the
South Carolina Tracey" was en-
acted yesterday In Alabama,
when Charles Jeffcoat was shot
by two officers of the law. A
dispatch received last night by
The State reads as follows:
Andalusia, Ala, March s.
Charles Jeffcoat, alias Charles
johnson, who was wanted In
Swainsboro, Ga, for the murder
of j. O. Flanders, deputy sheriff
OF Emanuel county, was shot to
death today near Watkins bridge,
on Yellow river, by Deputy Sher-
ifs Prestwood and Dunson. who
were attempting to arrest him.
Jeffcoat was also wanted in South
Carolina fer murder. There is a
reward of $1,000 for his capture
from Georgia. Deputy Dunson
WAS shot in the leg by Jsffcoat.
Jeffcoat's career while q law
less one was nevertheless pie
turesque.
On July 16, 1902, he was being
pursued by = posse near Midville,
Ga, headed by Deputy Sheriff
Joe Flanders who was endeavor.
ing to arrest him for the murder
Of man named Wilson at Hsrn-
don, Ga. The crime had been
committed some four months
previous and during the inter-
vening time Jeffcoat had been
eagerly pursued. As Sheriff
Flanders was almost upon him
the desperate turned and shot
him escaping into the Ogeechee
river swamp.
A few days later Gov. Nc
Sweeney was notified of q gang
OF horse thieves operating near
Wagners in Aiken county and
offered rewards for their capture.
They were hotly pursued by
Sheriff Alderman of Aiken coun-
ty. Dogs were placed on their
trail and the thieves were closed
up with. The pursuit narrowed
to q small settlement near the
river and the posse came in sight
OF Jetfcoat, who turned and fred
broadside at the two officers,
Sheriff Alderman and his deputy,
Mr.. All. The latter was shot in
the back by the outlaw who again
escaped. A new posse was Or
ganized and the chase renewed
towards the southern part of the
State. he was thought to have
entered Lexington county and
the governor and the sheriff's of
Aiken and Lexington counties
kept up a constant telegraphic
communication. Extra cartridges
were sent to the officers and fresh
dogs were obtained. But on
July 26 all trace of Jeffcost
was lost, though the man hunt
continued.
He was traced to Dixiana, in
Lexington county, and from there
entered the Oongaree swamp.
The swamp was thoroughly
searched but no trace of him
could be found. From that time
he has been unheard Of in South
Carolina, though there were fre-
quent rumors of his appearances
in this city, as he has brother
living here. Most of these stories
were, however, myths.

DIFFERENCE BETWEEN Nc
KINLEY AND ROOSEVELT.

Senator Tillman Gives Out a
Statement Severely Critici-
sing President Roosevelt's
Southern Policy.
Special to The State.
Washington, March 2.-Taking
exception to President Roosevelt's
letter to Clark Howell, editor Of
The Constitution, which was
published in the press dispatches
this morning, Senator Tillman
tonight gave out statement
severely critlcising the presi-
dents Southern policy and con-
trssting it with that of President
Mckinley.
In this statement he says ::
There are some facts concerning
the attitude of the present ad-
ministration in this matter of
Southern appointments as COM
pared with the Mckinley admin.
istration which are not brought
out by that letter. Mr.. Roese-
velt has departed absolutely and
entirely from the late policy of
the martyred Mckinley. Prea-
dent Mckinley at the beginning
of his frst term followed tho
customary rule of his Rspubli-
can predecessors in regard to
Southern patronage. This was
largely controlled by the chair.
man Of the national committee
and the party workers who had
rounded up the delegations in
the national convention were
given the customary number of
places.
"These places were often given
to colored men. But after the
Spanish war had demonstrated
that the southern people were as
loyal and patriotic as any other
citizens of the republic, and after
President Mckinley had sisitsd
the south and captured the hearts
of our people by his broad, liber.
al, generous utterances, there was
a change in his policy. think
that an examination will show
that during the balance of his
term few if any colored men were
appointed to Office in the south.
As | recall it, President McKin-
ley went to Tuskegee and in his
speech there at Booker Washing
tons school he advised the ne
groes to leave politics alone, to
cultivate friendly relations be.
tween themselves aud the white
people and to look after their ma
terial interest as the only road
to worthy citizenship. All the
good work which had been done
by Mckinley toward the cultiva-
ton of mutual friendly senti.
ment and towards the elimina-
ton of the pestiferous negro poll
tician as fac tor has been undone
by the present executive. Race
feeling is today, therefore, rum
ming higher than at any time in
the past 10 years. The result
can only be injurious to both
races, but the negroes will newt
ably suffer most"
