WAS VICTIM OF POLITICS.
Dr.. nartzos no Longer President of the UnIve'
sity Of Arkansas.


Dr.. Henry S. Hartzog, formerly presl-
dent of Clemson college, and until recent
ly president of the University of Arkan-
sas, has lost his place as the head OF that
institution, all because of politics, accord
ng to the Memphis Commercial-Appeal.
The Appeal says:
While the men in control Of the public
schools of Arkansas have been fighting
nobly to keep politics at distance, there
is serious charge that the removal OF DR..
81. S. Hartzog from the presidency OF the
state university is due to this source.
The Springfield News, which is pub
lished in the home county Of the univer-
sity, makes the direct charge. 1t claims
that the scholarly educator who has done
his duty so faithfully was removed because
of demonstration of students favoring
Wood for governor over Davis.
Whether true or not, the following
comment which the Appeal makes is GER
tainly full truth:
If this be true Arkansas is sowing a
crop of politics in places that will most
certainly raise harvest of deplorable re-
suits in the near future. The education
of the youth of the land should be abso-
lutely free from political control. No
man may do his duty as an educator if his
position is to be endangered at the whim
of every ignorant, but popular individual
who may be advanced to high places in
the politics of the State. When politicians
of this sort appear upon the horizon the
people shonld take warning, for they are
of the calibre that builds machines which
will roll over and fatten out all liberal
views and all individuals.
It is hard question, which is the worse
to have politicians run school from the
outside or from the inside. Take the case
in point.-Spartanburg Herald.

Philadelphia Ledger.
 report made recently by the Brit ish Board of Trade on the naval ex- penditures of the leading powers for the latest available year presents tn- teresting figures. The report deals with the year ending March 3l. 1903. From the exhibit 1t appears that the United Kingdom spends more on its navy than Russia, Germany and France spend on their combined fleets. The British na- val expenditure is more than double that of the United States. Russia 8 naval expenditure for the year named was five times as large as Nnut of Ja- pan. Russia spent less than per cent of her revenues on her navy. Japan spent per cent of her revenues in this way. The country which now spends most on it's navy next to Great Britain Is the United States. The British mercantile marine exceeds in tonnage that of Russia, Germany, France, Italy, the United States and Japan put together The mercantile marine tonnage of Great Britain reaches 10,26S, 60As tons.

County Conventions to Be
 Held.
COmmisslOner of Agriculture AttemDtS to Unite Planters of Alabama to Hold for Higher Cotton
 Prices.

Undertaking to unite the people of Alabama behind the movement for the salvation of the Cotton States inau- Convention. Commissioner of Agricul- ture Robert R. Poole yesterday issued a general call for assemblies in every precinct in the State on February II. 1905, at 1 o'clock in the afternoon.
 The date of these meetings and their purpose were fixed at the Convention in New Orleans. In order to effectu- ate the earnest intentions of the con- vention, however, the Commissioners of Agriculture in the cotton-growing States feel in a sense responsible for emphasizing in the minds of the farm CTS and bankers the necessity of their cooperation.
 At the meetings on February Il a County chairman and a precinct chair man will be elected for each precinct in the County. Also- committees of three on acreage and membership were provided for in the New Orleans plan and they will be appointed on the date of the precinct assemblies.
 This Committee, the Commissioner of Agriculture requests, will proceed tm- medIately to get the signature of ev- cry cotton grower in their precinct to q pledge to reduce his acreage 2S per cent under that of the previous year ?.
 The precinct meetings are also en- joined to elect three representatives to a County Convention to be held at each County seat on ThurBday, Feb- ruary 1G, 1905, which will elect it's own officers and elect one representa- tive to a State Convention at Mont gomery on Tuesday, February 21, 1905 Commissioner Poole urges that good judgment be used in the elections.
 The call of the Commissioner is as follows:
 Department of Agriculture,
 Montgomery. Ala, Jan. 21, 1905. To the People of Alabama:
 The time has come for action; iu unity now is your only strength. The movement inaugurated at New Orleans by the Commissioners of Agriculture of the cotton growing States is the hope now for the accomplishment oi lasting benefit to the cotton sfower iI the South, and to reap the full bene- fits of that meeting and to successful- ly carry out its purposes it is abso- lutely essential that we have organI. zation in every precinct in Alabama.
 This action on your part is earnest' ly urged and it portends much req, benefit to the people of Alabama, es. peeialiy to the producer, if we will but do our part now. The people of ths cotton growing States are aroused tc the inpeFativs necessity to do some, thing, and the line of action marked out at New Orleans, after free and full consultation between bankers merchants. brokers, professional mer and farmers. is the guide for us tc follow and we must be enthusiastie detcrmined and must not tolerate ans hesitation or deviation from its de.

prosecution was conclusive of the guilt of the negress, both in circumstantial and direct evidence. She was turned over to the County authorities for con- tinement in the County jail pending an investigation of her case by the grand jury. That body meets Monday and after their action and that of the courts, Montgomery will probably be rid of the unique parsonage of wo- man burglar.

How it Waa aatfInd.

Kansas City Journal (Rep.1
 It is said that never until the present month was a negro ever called to serve upon Jury in civil or criminal court in this county The absence of negro jurymen here was not due to any freak of luck in the jury wheel IT was dua to the long established practice among the sheriffs to return all summon8es non est inVentus which happened to contain negro names. The presence ef a negro on the panel this term was an accident resulting from the awkward ness of newssheriff who was not onto his job.
 The affair for time bIockaded the machinery of the law. The white turymen became mutlnous and protest- ed directly to the judge. This presented a clean cut issue on the race question for the judge to decide. What was he to do? Here was case with pre1udice pulling on one side and the law on the other. But he proved himself veri- table Daniel brought to Judgment. He quizzled the protesting white jurymen and soon received from them a deciara- tion that they could not give a fair and impartial verdict In any case with a negro sitting, beside them. as their thoughts would be so occupied in think ing of the negro that they would be unable to give proper attention to the facts in the case. This frank confess sion showed the judge his way out of an unpleasant predicament, and he lost no time in taking advantage of it. He promptly excused the negro juryTuan from further sefviee. The negro. hav- ing got his per diem and other fees seemed not only willing. hut anxious, 60 go and he went, singing: "Naught is naught
 Figger is figger:
 All for the white man, None for the nigger." This incident doubtless win furnish a precedent for the guidance Of all future judges and jurymen in Jackson Coun- ty Although laws may declare all men equal. they cannot make them SO nor remove racial pride and preiudicss. Therefore 1t is no use trying to execute laws too severely against human nature as such course can only breed trouble.
