is the interview:
Il believe that President Roose-
welt is thoroughly honest in the pol
icieS he advocates and that he is de-
termined to bring about the reforms
on which he has declared himself.
They are good Democratic doctrines,
and it is therefore the duty Of the
people of the South to assist him in
every way possible to bring about the
desired ends.
Even if the president has stolen
our thunder, it is good thunder, and
we should not stand back simply be-
cause he is a Republican president. |
believe that the president has made
thousands Of new friends during his
recent tour Of the South, and the peO-
pie in this section understand him
better than ever before. He is a
great man and deserves our support in
the reforms he is advocating"

A COURAGEOUS JUDGE.

Judge Sam G. Cook, of the eleventh
judicial district, did a very courageous
thing while holding court at Tunica
last week. He suspended the sheriff
and appointed some one to act in his
place, and also dismissed six members
of the grand jury, whom he believed
to be playing a double role, and ap.
pointed others to act in their places.
Judge Cook acted wisely and very
properly if he believed the sheriff and
grand jurors were in league with law
leSsneSS. 1t takes an officer imbued
with the spirit of giving the best and
most patriotic service to his state to
do what Judge Cook did in this case.
If he had been a timid shrinking char
acter he would have never disturbed
the sheriff and those grand jurors.
Give us more Judge Cooks, and
grand jurieS will cease to be places to
smother prosecutions.

c. o. D. WhlSKEY.

At various points throughout the
state afidavitS have recently been made
and the proper officers have seized
the G. O. ID. whiskey found in express
offices upon the theory that the Ship
ment OF The whiSkey and the collect
ing for same here was a sale here, and
hence a violation OF law. We are not
prepared to discuss the matter from a
lawyers view point, but we must say
that the common sense Of the PROPOSE
ton is, that the whiSkey is sold
wherever the money is paid. But be
that as it may, it does appear that
the people, in this land where major
tiles are supposed to rule, should be
entitled to control. They have voted
out the sale Of whiSkey and this should
mean literally out. And a way will
be found to keep it out. The class of
citizenship who are behind this move
ment never undertook anything yet
and failed.
We are indebted to the KoSciuskO
Star Ledger for citing the following
federal statute, known as the Wilson
Act, passed by Congress in August,
1891, which we think clearly covers
the points now being discussed:
AN Act, to limit the effect of the
regulations Of commerce between the
several states and with foreign u
tries in certain cases:
BE it enacted, that all fermented,
distilled, OF other intoxicating liquors
or liquids, transported into any state
or territory or remaining therein for
use, sale, consumption or storage
therein shall, upon arrival in such
state or territory, be subject to the
laws of such state or territory enacted
in the exercise Of its police powers to
the same extent and in the same
manner as though such liquor or
liquids had been produced in such
state or territory and shall not be ex-
empt therefrom by reason if it being
introduced therein, in original pack
ages CT otherwise.

ROOSEVELT AND THE CONFED,
CRATES.

President Roosevelt is still paying
his most affectiOnate respects to the
Confederate soldiers as he JOURNEYS
through the South. He was most
chivalrouS in his greetings Of Mrs.
StOnewall Jackson, and touched hel
heart by paying a high compliment tC
her grandson, Jackson Christian,
whom he appointed to a cadetship at
West Point. In his speech at Char
lotte he referred to the incident, and
declared that I'VE of this united coun-
try have a right to challenge as a part
of the heritage of honor and glory in
each American, the reunion Of one
people, Americans who fought in the
Civil War, whether they wore the
blue or whether they wore the gray.
the valOr shown alike by the men OF
the North and the men of the South
as they battled for the right, is now
part of what we, all of US, keep with
pride" In Richmond he said that
next to the men who wore the blue he
honored Of all men those who wore
the gray, and he was not satisfied I'M
til he had gone out to the Soldiers
Home and greeted the veterans of that
institution face to face.
Entertaing that view, holding in the
highest honor the soldiers of the Con-
federacy, looking upon them as men
who did their duty as they were given
to sec it, as patriots and not as rebels
and traitors, We cannot but believe
that Mr.. Roosevelt would like to be-
stow substantial favorS upon such of
them are now disabled.
We know not what he has in mind,
we know not if he has anything OF
the sort in mind, and we should be
the last to ask the Federal govern
ment to bestOw favOrS upon Confeder-
ate soldiers. But we may go so far as
to express the opinion that any such
recognition on the part of the PreSi-
dent Of the United States and the
Federal government of our disabled
COnfedcratcS would do more than all
else to wipe out the last veStige CT
sectional feeling in the South and
make the Southern people feel in very
truth they are part and parcel of the !
nation. Richmond Times Dispatch.
