Judge Newman has hitherto held that
the state courts had jurisdiction OF
these cases. Judge Newman expects

ply with the wishes OF the church peo-

The fight between the temperance
people and the preacher over the
Dodge case grew warmer and finally
resulted in a request for Mr.. McDon'
aid to resign the pastorate unless he
would either expel Mrs. Dodge from
membership or induce her to stop SELL
ing liquor. Mr. Mcdonald resigned.
1t was understood at that time that
Mrs. Dodge told him that she would
Lsee that he lost nothing by standing
Gus tor her. She advanced him money
to educate his children, and sent the
children presents frequently. In her
will she made numerous requests of
small amounts to relatives in Maine.
Mr.. Mcdonald was designated by
the will al executor of the estate, and
he was instructed as such executor to
provide out of the funds Of the estate
for the education of the Mcdonald
children.
After the requests to relatives the
will provides that all the rest and res
idue OF the property of every kind and
nature owned by the testatrix at the
time of her death shall become the
property of Mcdonald, who is referred
to as her friend.

EXPERTS MAKING MONEY.
Bad Coins Coming in Large Guam
titles from China.

Some experts over in China are still
unconviuced that the free and unlimit-
ed coinage Of silver is not good
thing. They are said to be making
coins in imitation of quarters and half
dollars of the United States and ship
ping them in quantities to this coun-
try.
The amount of silver in half dol
lar is worth about 30 cents, so that
the coiners are making profit, ex-
elusive of freight, of 20 cents on each
coin.
The workmanship on the coins is
said to be pretty nearly perfect; so
nearly as good as that of the mints
that only an exper: can tell the bad
money from the good. Quantities of
these bogus halves and quarters have
neen received in San Francisco and
Seattle.

70 HELP COTTON FARMERS
SULLY SAYS HE is GOING TO GIVE HIS
EFFORTS TO ASSISTING THEM
Spectator Says He Will Introduce I'm
proved Methods of Cultivation and
Handling That Will Be Beneficial.

Mr. Daniel ]. SullY, who won noto-
rlety as Spectator in the cotton
market, and who recently failed for
100000 or $3,OO0,00O, says that he
is now going to give his tiwe and en-
ergies to assisting the cotton farmer
to get better returns for his cotton.
he is going to introduce methods of
cultivation that will bring q larger
yield, and of handling that will pre-
vent waste and get the cotton to mark
ct In better condition.
These promises, says the Savannah
News, will of course be received by
the farmers with feelings of gratitude.
Ihey are always glad to receive as
SlStance that will enable them to get a
better net profit out of their crop,
but what is it that MIR. Sully proposes
10 90; II will, be recalled that not
long ago he said one reason the yield
tNA eSNl = w oS LOO ioi was
mat the seed was deteriorating. His
contention was that the best grade of
'ne seed was sent to the cotton oil
mills and the inferior grades planted.
we see it stated in the dispatches
mat he is going to manufacture an
improved machine for baling cotton
anu new cotton gin for which he has
secured the patent. The company
'nSt Is going to manufacture these
machines has a capital of $4,000, 900
@nu Is to be operated under New
Jersey charter.
from the foregoing we infer that
MI SoIly hopes to help the cotton
i@rmeF by means of these machines.

CRUM WAS NOT CONFIRMED
NEGRO APPOINTMENT HAS AT LAST
GOT ROOSEVELT IN HOT WATER.
Negro Voters in Close States Have Be-

Republicans Much Uneasiness.

Republicans Much Uneasiness.
The Crum appointment at Charles
ton has at last got President Roosevelt
and the republic leaders of the SEN
ate into deep hot water.
News has been received at the white
house that the negro voters in the
doubtful northern states are exceed
ingly angry because DR.. CrUm's APP
pointment has never been confirmed.
and though the president insists that
the republicans in the senate shall
confirm the appointment there is not
the least chance for such action to he
taken.
Wherefore there is much alarm in
republican ranks today. DR.. Crum has
been repeatedly nominated for this of
fee, but has each time failed to secure
confirmation by the senate. He is
consequently compelled to serve with
out compensation. A vote on this con-
frmation has never been reached.
The negroes in the north advance
the claim that whenever a negro is app
pointed to good federal Office in the
south he is prevented from deriving
any benefit from it by the failure of
the republicans in the senate to obtain
his confirmation.
A few determined democrats always
are successful in defeating action.
The president has urged the republic
can leaders in the senate to secure
final vote on the Crum nomination or
bring on such fight as will convince
the complaining negroes that the dem
ocrats have prevented action through
a stubborn flibuster.
