JEFFERSON AND THE NEGRO.

H. -
l. correspondent of the New York
Evening Post calls the attention OF
that stalwart democratic journal to
the fact that Thomas Jefferson ap-
pointed a Negro to Office more than
century ago. When he was secre.
tary of state he wrote to the Marquis
de Condorcet, under date Of August
80, 1871, as follows:
Lam happy to be able to inform you
that we have now in the United States
negro, the son of black man born
in Africa, and of black woman born
in the United States, who is very re-
spectacle uathe matician, I procured
him to be employed under one of our
chief directors in laying out the new
federal city on the Potowmac. & in the
interval of his leisure, while on that
work, he made an Almanac for the
next year, which he sent me in his
own hand writing, & which 1 enclose
to you. Ihave seen very elegant So
lutions of Geometrieal problems by
him. Add to this that he is very
worthy & respectable member Of So
ciety. He is free man. 1 shall be
delighted to see these instances OF

DIR. CRUM, CONFIRMED.

Last Friday. Afternoon the
United States Senate III executive
session confirmed the appointment
of DR.. D. II. Crum to be United
States revenue collector of GUS
toms at the port of Charleston,
S. c. DR.. Crum and his friends
have had hard fight for contir-
nation. President Roosevelt sent
his name in three years ago and
the democrats made a hard fight
! against him, first alleging one
thing than another against DR..
Crum. Upon investigation it
was found that none of their
charges were true. He was a
gentleman, we'll qualified, high
character aud good morals. It
was found that the real aud only
reason for opposing his confr-
nation was that he is colored
man and the white people did
not want Nego revenue collector
When President Roosevelt found
that was the only cause to oppose
him he then written his famous
letter which was the bravest pub
lie letter5ever transmitted to the
South, telling them in plain
terms that he would not, nor
could not close the door of hope
ofopportunity against the colored
man on account of color. Al
though republican senate re-
fused to confirm him for three
years, yet the President has sent
his name in five times, and at
last he was confirmed and will
now draw the three years salary
of So, 500 per year. All praise to
our brave and true President.
The threats of Ben Tillman and
his gang did not meve brave
Teddy from the path of his plain
duty.
