As to the Presidents manner and
presentation: who is 1t to gainsay his
polished and affable treatment to all
He is popular, and justIy SO, both at
home and abroad, for it is . notable
fact that as Chief Justice Of q great ns-
tion, however difficult it may be, he is
personally interested In the fair, r,pIsy,
impartial and just treatmentof each in
dividual case brought before him.
In the White House, at his post of
duty, he knows no man - q favorite on
account of race, color. or politics. That
he is fearless, out spoken and firm in
his deal ng with things aud fsc's, and
that HE lie HIMSELF the PRESIDENT,
no one will deny, and ell men admire.
He is broad-hearted, whOle-soul bu
man'ta-isn, who desires the freedom
the happiness a nd well-being of slI the
people the rich and the poor the black
and the white, alike: OF course, on &C.
count of his absolute freedom from he
sinful aid unpardouab!e pr +Judice
which exists with some hide-bOu
people against the COlored race, he is
o some little extent, being rldiculed,
but this seems to De the only accuse
ton his opponents are able to br ng
against him.
Will not the cry arise from every
camp among the masses: Away witt
such silly and frivolous stndictments
sesinst this good maj? We find no
fault in him.

Six young men have resigned their posi-

made manager and consequently their

Der Of the firm, on last Wednesday

nouncing the promotion of Miss Hentshel.
The young lady was invested With au-

dismissal the proper conduct of the busl-

The male employees OF the store were
much surprised and after conference
among themselves addressed the append

Mr.. s. s. Rosendorf, City:
We, the undersigned. after reading the
bulletin of this date, have come to the
conclusion that we cannot work under

CROWDINCi TOO MUCH,
The young men say It Is bad enough
for women to crowd men out of work as
much as they do now, but for them to
be placed over the heads of men is Just
n little more than they could stand.
Mr.. Rosendorf said the elevation OF the
young lady became necessary because OF
the customary conduct OF the young men
and the proper conduct of his business,
In explanation. he said that the young
lady's desk was In the center OF the
store. while those of the young men We're
in the rear. When n customer came In
it was often necessary for the lady to
ask one of the young men to the front,
Frequently the person addressed would
reply: II am busy" and several such
was, therefore, best in his Judgment to
give to the young lady sufficient au-
thority to have such requests compiled
with at once by the persons to whom
they were addressed.
Mr.. Rosendorf declared he will stand
by his action.
The young men say that some of their
had been at the store longer
than the young lady and therefore should
have had the promotion Mr.. Rosendort
denies this, hut says he made the promo
