Discussing the coming primaries for
state office the other day, the asser
ton was made that aside from the
race for the nomination for governor,
fully nine-tenths of the voters did not
know the names of the candidates for
other offices, or even what other Off
GERS were to be elected. This called
up an amusing incident in the mind
of one cf the gentlemen in the crowd
A candidate for one of the state Off
ces approached good old country
man in nearby county and handed
him his card, at the same time asking
him to consider his qualifications for
office. Whether the old man could
read the card or not is not known, but
he greeted the candidate with the ex-
pression:
II am for jeff
But" replied the candidate, 81 am
not candidate for the same office
that Mr.. Davis asks for, and l would
like your careful consideration of my
Claims
well, I'm fer jeff responded the
old man.
Again the candidate told him that
his race had nothing to do with the
gubernatorial rcce and urged the vot-
er to accept his card and remember
him at the polls.
NO; don't want your card. I'm fer
jeff, and If he wants you for the office
you want, JEFF can app'int you."

woven in this seasons Fashionable
tintss Glovemakers have dyed tint
to match. Sometimes the shopper
finds herself bewildered, as IN the
case of a mixed fabric, where the
gloves come TO match both tic back
ground and the figure. For instance,
a new French button suiting shows a
parrot-green silk dot on dull brown
ground. and the gloye-malser offers
both the brown and the green tint in
kid. AS a rule, the well dressed wo-
man selects the more quiet color,
leaving the vivid tones, such as green,
orange, rose, or sapphire blue to her
sister who likes startling effects.
However, with the Few, striking tints
such as burnt tomato onion brown
and the peculiar amethyst shadtngs,
the self-tone gloves must be employ
ed, as no other colorins seems to tone
well with the suiting.
There seems to be no hard and fast
rule in the matter of length for street
gloves. American manufacturers are
Offering both one and two-button
gloves, and from Paris come guam
titles Of the three-button length. The
one button glove cal be worn only
when the dress and coat sleeves are
very long. Neither Foster hooks nor
clasps appear on the smartest gloves
and large pearl buttons are used in
stead.
The athletic girl clings to natural
toned chamois for early fall wear
with her jersey or golf vest, and later
will employ the heavy Knit glove,
which this season VIII come in all the
popular tones for suitings and Jerseys.
The tailored girl is now wearing
goatskin or mocha. but aer favorite
winter glove will be the tei:ldcer kind.
She does not permit the top Of her
glove to turn back, as her brother
still does but she buttons it snugly
around the wrist.

NEGRo's NAME AGAIN
TO GO BEFORE SENATE.
President viii Ask Confirmation Of
DR.. William .. crunn as Col
lector at charleston-in-
sists on Decision.

WASHINGTON, D. c., Nov 10
In the first batch of nominations to
be sent to the Senate for confirma-
ton by President Roosevelt will be
that of Dr. William D. Crum, a negro,
to be collector of customs at Charles
ton, S. c.
During the many months this nomi-
nation has been before the Senate
that body has persistently lodged
positive action by postponing con
sidera ton It may follow this course
again, but the opinion is that it will
not. The conviction obtains here
that Southern Senators will withdraw
their opposition to the appointment,
and that confirmation will be speed
lily accomplished.
Sentiment in Charleston has, it is
understood, undergone remarkable
change, and Charlestonians are no
longer disposed to combat the ap-
pointment For this change DR.,
Crum himself is responsible. Hold
ing the office as a recess appointee,
he has carefully refrained from max
ing himself in any manner offensive
to those who have business at the
custom house. Citizens business is
conducted entirely with white clerks,
and Dr. Crum, living simply and I'M
ostentatious1y, abstains from thrust
ing himself upon the notice of the
white residents and business men.
This, it is reported, has disarmed
those who criticised the appointment,
and they are now ready to let the
nomination be confirmed without fur
Their objection.

cHRIsTIANIZED JAPAN.

New York Notwithstanding to a
perfectly credible dispatch from Toxic
to the London Daily Telegraph, a great
religious meeting was held in the ia
panese capital Sunday "to determine
the question of founding in Japan a
church prof. Christian in character, but
on independent lines" 1t is added
that leading Japanese men consider
that "the time has arrived to adopt
the elements approved by the majority
of civilized nations"
These sentences are vague; they do
not mean much in themselves. But
much may be meant by the religious
and philosophical ferment now in pro-
gress in the minds of Japanese think
ers, and by the fact that leading men
among them take this moment to favor
a new departure in the direction of
Christianity for their country's religi-
GUS life and thought.
Nothing could be more foolish and
shallow than to suppose that triumph
of Japan over Russia would set the
wheels of Christian progress in Asia
backward. An increase of Japan's
power and responsibility could only
emphasize the vanity of that country's
dependence on it's old Asiatic religious
and philosophical systems.
The new days for Japan means re-
adjustment all around. The country
is irrevocably committed to modern
progress. Some form of Christianity
which is elastic enough to serve as a
sure stepping stone between the old
and the new is altogether likely to

a POLITICAL Pipe DREAM.

The space writer in Des Moines has
again been busy preparing decoction
which he dished up to the readers Of
the Register and Leader in Tuesday
mornings ISSUE He attempts to re-
vivify the "Iowa Idea" contest that was
amicably and effectually settled at the
recent state convention by bringing out
as candidates for the gubernatorial
nomination Geo. D. Perkins and Major
John F. Lacey of the sixth district
Nearly half column of space is until
lied in an attempt to show that Con-
gresham Lacey will be put forward
as the standpat candidate while Mr..
Perkins will be supported for the place
by the "antis."
While the gubernatorial campaign in
Iowa is too remote just now to venture
any predictions as to it's outcome, con-
ditions in Iowa at this time are such
as to indicate that the outcome will
not be as the Des Moines writer pre-
diets Today Iowa republicans are
united The question which he sug-
gests will divide them in next years
campaign, has been decided by the
rank and file of the party. That there
will at such an early date be di-
vision on this same question is one of
the most remote probabilities.
And again the Des Moines prophet
suggests the name of Major Lacey as a
probable candidate most likely using it
without his knowledge and most GER
tainly without consulting his constitu-
ents. Major Lacey, representing the
sixth district, holds high place in the
affairs Of the nation His service has
been eminently satisfactory to the peo-
pie of his district, and while they are
aware he would fill the governors
chair with success, they would be loath
to part with his services as representa-
