SOME OF HILLS SAYINGS

David Bennett Hill on the 25th. ult.
made bis first speech in this campaign at
the Broome County, N. Y, Agricultural
Fair. Among other things he said:
1.-THE Democratic party, which estab-
lished the present currency system, can
safely be trusted whenever the necessity
shall arise to make such changes as are
necessary for the best interests OF the
people,"
This is news sure enough. We always
thought the Republican party established
our present currency system, According
to our Recollection the Democrats have
been for State bank money and free sil-
YER currency. They have recently been
converted to the gold standard. When
the Act establishing that standard came
up in Congress nearly every Democratic
representative In the House ana oeDate
voted against its passage. Every Demo
cratic Congressman and the two Senators
from Virginia voted against the bill es-
tablishing the gold standard.
Mr.. Hill said in this speech that the
difference between the Republican and
the Democratic parties is that the Repub-
lican party stands for private purposes and
the Democratic party for public purposes.
Of course this Is true, as is shown in the
life of Mr.. Hill. He has never used poll
tics and Office to advance private interests
or purposes.
Mr.. Hill also said that President Roose-
veit is "a fraud" That settles it. Every.
body has the most perfect confidence in
the truth of anything David Bennett Hill
saws.

RED GUM WOOD.
Long Neglected, Ills Now Being Made
of Use as Lumber.

Birmingham Age-Herald.
Because it warps and stains in season
ing red gum was long neglected, but now
go per cent of the barrels and boxes MADE
in the south are made of red gum. The
wood is also shipped to Europe, where 1t
is made into furniture, and it is also used
there in paving blocks. When steamed 1t
is easily bent, and it thus becomes avail
able for carriage rims and carriage wood
stock.
Il has been found that lumber from logs
that have been in water for six weeks
stains very little, and steam kilning pre-
vents both warping and staining. The tim
Der is thoroughly soaked in live steam for
forty EIGHT to seventy-two hours, and is
then dried by steam radiation The boards
are then air-dried from tTo to three months
This method enables lumbermsn tosupply
good grade of red gum, and this is why
the use of the once deSpised wood is ex-
tending.
The bureau of forestry has q timber-test-
ing laboratory at Lafayette, Ind, and red
gum hes there been subjected to various
tests. 1t has there been demonstrated that
red gum has high degree Of strength. 1t
is almost wholly free from knots, and
joist ofired gum, it has been ascertained'
will carry as great load as a joist Of North
Carolina pine.
At present ts use is chiefly confined to
narrow boards, but if 10 larger sizes warp
ing and twisting can be prevented the
wood will come into general use, supplant-
ing in many cases hickory, oak and ash
The bureau of forestry says that swampy
bottom lands should be kept planted IN
red gum trees. The tree is rapid grow
er, is not subject to fire waste, and 1t lf
probable that no crop on lands subject to
overflow will pay better, for it is already
we'll established that red gum will soon be-
come commercially valuable. 1t will have
to serve to lengthen out our stock of hard
woods.

The Lynchburg News in commenting on
the refusal of ex-senator Pettierew to sup
port Parker and Davis says the Republic
cans may be expected to crow over his de-
lection. Our Lynchburg contemporary
does seem to think it means that Mr.. Pet
tigrew will be followed by numerous
crowd Let us wait and see. The News
also claims that there are more OBJECTIONS
of prominent men FROM the Republicans
than from the Democrats. The News EVIL
IDENTIFY is thinking about the Gold Demo-
Gratis who voted with the Republicans In
the last two Presidential campaigns. 1t
cannot count as many prominent Repuoll-
cans as there are fingers on one hand that
have refused TO support Roosevelt and
Fairbanks.

Civilization ObIItsrated.
Schenectady.

Nashville American" (Dem.)
The burning of the negroes near States
boro, Ca. is a reflection upon our clviliza'
ton. The sayages in the early days Of
this country scalped and tortured their
helpless victims, but the rude pioneers OF
that time, more humane, though they sut-
feredmore than have any four people from
any danger, actual or impending, did not
retaliate an eye for an eye and tooth for
a tooth. Their suffering only served to
bring them to higher state, and make
them more generous to the ignorant and
brutal. But the mob that burned the me-
groes in Georgia, because they had murder
ed and burned family Of white people,
obliterated their civilization and by their
horrible act, sank for the time, tothesame
degradation as the brutal savages who had
murdered and burned.
Such scenes as these make us shudder
for the progress of our civilization and
doubt, indeed, whether it lie progressing or
retrograding.

VERY INCONSISTENT.

Our esteemed contemporary, the hich-
mond News Leader, reports that there Is
an ugly and dangerous situation at Clare
mont, Va. 1t says: Something ike
popular uprising against negro postal
clerk is threatened and a negro mail car
rier has received warning letter which
frightened him so that be resigned"
After remarking that 1--WE want no busl-
ness of this kind in Virginia" that there
is no sense in it, nothing to be gained by
it, that 1t is not heroic for number OF
armed white lnen to jump on couple oil
negrous, it says:
1.-THE present government of the United
States seems to be determined to force
the negro issue and to provoke and try
the Southern people by every means poesi-
Bile by striking at the most sensitive chord
in their nature and attacking their civili-
cation at it's most vital point. ~ Our
urgent advice to the Olaremont people Is
to let the negro postal clerks and carriers
alone. y y n The way to work against
them is by regular, lawful, constitutional
methods. Let those who resent their
presence express that resentment by vot-
ing and working against Mr.. Roosevelt,
who put them there"
Our contempory gives the people OF
Claremont some sound good advice, and
then proceeds to destroy its commendable
courseon that line by trying to use for mar
row partisan end the situation it is writing
about. The News Leader ought to know
that postal clerks are appointed under the
Civil Service, and that mail carriers receive
their appointments in the same way or I'M
der contract with the Government after
putting in bids. There have been such
negro mail carriers in this part of Virginia,
under Mr.. Cleyeland's administrations as
we'll as others, and no objections have been
raised to them by men of any race or
party,
Even if Mr.. Roosevelt had appointed
the negro postal clerk and the mail carrier
at Claremont, we are surprised that our
Richmond contemporary should make 1t a
ground of objection to the President.
The News Leader was an ardent advocate
of the nomination of Mr. Cleveland not be-
cause it loved him but wanted MIR. Cleve'
land s'as an issue"
! /Our contemporary knows that Mr.. Cleve-
land appointed number of negro post
\ masters in Virginia, that he appointed two
negroes Recorder of Deed. in the District
of Columbia, and made various other APP
pointments OF negroes to office that were
more Objectionable to what our contem-
porary calls the most sensitive chord in our
mature.
Can it be possible that our Richmond
contemporary is SO blinded by craftsmanship
that it can believe thing is right when
done by Mr.. Cleveland and that it is wrong
when done by Mr.. Roosevelt?

italian BrIpaudaue In the United State,

Chicago Record Herald"
It is not surprising that in the large
Italian population Of this country there
should be men of the type who fill the
ranks of the Malta and Camorra in South
ern Italy, and who aspire to similar GRIM
inal prosperity here, Nor is it surprising
that they should attain oonsiders BILE suG=
cess, since their method is that Of organic
ed terrorism aud their victims are almost
entirely men of their own nationality.
Nevertheless they will surely find, and that
in no long time, that America furnishes
them no favoring soil.
Statistics show that in Italy the number
of murders average about twenty times as
large as in England and Wales, with APP
proximately the same population. The
Italian brigands are responsible for large
part of this awful record. Organized crime,
such as the Italians here and there attempt
to establish, most certainly will not be toll
Grated.

MAYORS ORDER
STANDS

Rumor says Mayor Boyd has de-
termined not to require the removal
OF the women who occupy quarters
on Front avenue and In that vicinity.
The mayor previously announced that
these women must move from tile
neishborhood of Front avenue and
Mil street by the hrst of July. In
vestigation reveals the fact that the
women have made no preparations
to move. and now comes the report
that the mayor is going to change his
mind.
Some Of the business men of the
city have expressed the belief that
there should be no disturbance of
present conditions. M. M. Cowley OF
the Traders National bank expressed
the sentiment of some of these when
he said today it was question where
to send the women II they are dis
turbed.
II do not know where they could
be put" said he. They ought not
to be allowed In the blocks. They
should not be permitted to go into
the residence portions OF the city nor
any nearer the business centers of
the town. No one seems disposed
to find them new quarters which
would be less conspicuous. so do
not see how they can be moved to
advantage"
The Press IL glad to say the mayor
has not rescinded his order as yet.
