A Negro CRATER.

An Investigation by the Civil
Service Commission has brought
to light the grating" operations
of the negro Garter, who recently
figured as the appointee to .
clerkship in the postoffice at
Greenwood.
Carter is a teacher in the pub
lie schools of the State during
the school terms. He has passed
the civil service examination for
letter carriers or clerks and man.
ges to get his name on the list
of eligibles in the postoffices where
white women work as clerks, and
where he we'll knows he would
not be allowed to serve as clerk.
When notified of his appoint
ment as extra clerk at such an
office, he goes to the town and
lets it be known to the white cit
izens that rather than have :r0u~
BILE or hard feelings he will re-
sign. He unfolds q hard luck
story and asks for money help
and gets it.
Garter has worked the same
game at Yazoo City and Green-
wood, IN this State, and at Pine
Bluff, Ark.

well filled with firewater, proceeded
to annoy some white camps into
the wee small hours of the night.
Mrs. Scott of Baker City. Oregon
borrowed an empty shotgun, walked
out in their midst and, in persuasive
though forcible tones. ordered them
to depart. They tarried not to par
ley, but Immediately began scat
terment in several directions. One
became entangled in a wire fence,
and while looking in the cleaning
gun barrel. entreated the plucky
woman to "shoot that man, shoot
that man. pointing to a comrade
wallowing on the ground, yet unable
to rise. In five minutes she had
cleaned out the whole posse and quiet
reigned the rest of the night.
If the Indians must have whiskey,

had many of the best singers in the
city of Mcpherson, Kan. as his most
enthusiastic pupils. Miss Bessie

ence with children and is a success

cupied by the Deaconess' Hospital,

Commissioners Let Contract to Se-
attic Firm for Bridge Across

The county commissioners this
morning awarded the contract for the
construction of the Selah bridge, as
1t is known, TO span the NatcheZ

raised by subscription among the
people, who will be most directly
benefited by the improvement, TO APP
ply on the cost, and this has all been
paid in.
There will be two spans TO the
bridge, the first $50 feet and the sec
ond fifty feet in length. and in addi-
ton to this there will be several hun
dred feet of approaches and fill The
bridge will rest upon two concrete
and two pile piers. Work upon it is
to be begun at an early date.
The commissioners considered the
bids for graveling the Mckee road,
several of which were submitted, as
all too high; they were. therefore, all
rejected, and the auditor was in
structed to readvertise for BIDS for
doing work
The auditor was also instructed to
advertise for bids for the improve
ment of the Se1ah grade, which is to
be graded and otherwise improved
with view to making it easier TO
travel with loaded vehicles.
The board is still in session.. but
expects to complete its labors for the
present month tomorrow.
