JUDGE THOMAS G.. JONES of Ala
bama has also dined with President
Roosevelt, and followed it with a
lengthy interview in which he declares
the president is brimful of love for the
south. A feature of his statement IS
the rather apologize way in which he
tries to smooth over the Booker
Washington dinner. Judge Jones is

favor of the president, is occupying a
snug republican berth, and it is posi-
BILE that he has mistaken himself for
the south.

state would have an executive of whom
it might we'll be proud.
