 A prominent government official says President Roosevelt Is not going to pay any attention to the request of J. B. Syphax. a former negro member of the Virginia Legislature. to break up negro Republicans against gathering in the South. It will be recalled that few days ago. syphax suggested to the President that these organizations are demoralizing to the negroes. and that the white Republicans Of the South use the negroes solely to benefit their own political fortunes. This of ficia lsays the President realizes there is not much hope for Republication south of the Potomac. and he Is not go- ing to worry about his party's troubles in the South.

Attorney General for
 Supreme Court.
HE IS ,ROOSEvELT'S CHOICE
Will Give Massachusetts Two
 Representatives.
Name of Successor to Justice Brown Will Be Sent to the Senate When COnGress
 COnvenes.

Washington. Oct 24.-while no off, cial statement Is obtainable. unofficial information confirms the report that the President will appoint Attorney General William H. Moody of Massa- chusetts to the vacancy on the Supreme Bench. made vacant by the retirement of Associate Justice Henry B. Brown.
 The announced intention of the Pres ident to appoint MT. Moody to the Su- preme Court bench came as a surprise. as 1t was generally understood that he had eliminated the Attorney Gen. eral from consideration in that connec- tion. because of the fact mainly that Massachusetts already has represent ative on the bench in the person of Associate Justice Holmes.
 MT. Moody's nomination will bo sent to the Senate when Congress con- venes, but the general expectation is that he will not take his seat on the bench until about January 1, when. as previously announced, he expects to re- tire from the Attorney Generalship.
 Pleased at Strauss's Selection.
 New York. Oct 94.-"President Roosevelts proposed appointment of Mir. Strauss to a place in his cabinet is most gratifying" said Jacob H. Schin today. Tt Is singular and very agreeable coincidence that the an nouncement comes almost simultan- eously with that of the appointment of General Picquart, wuo championed Dreyfus, to the portfolio of war in the new French cabinet.
 II take 1t that MT. Strauss's ap- pointment Is not only a we'll deserved compliment to the man and his quali- fications. but at the same time a de- sire on the part of the President to recognize the good citizenship of the Jews of the United States"

REDS TO CORRAL HORSES
The Umatiiias Are Now Making Annual
Roundup.


One of the great annual events in
the lives of the Indians on the Umatil-
la reservation was scheduled to take
place yesterday, when the work of
rounding up between 5000 and 1900
ponies was started.
According to Major Moorhouse, Of
the Pendleton Tribune, the Indians
have about 5000 head of ponies al
together, and the annual roundup of
the animals is about the keenest sport
afforded the ever restless red man in
this day of civilization. It could not
be learned whether or not the full
number would be corralled at the end
of the big drive which began yester-
day, but it supposed that the major
portion of the 5000 will be included.
The corrals into which the horses
will be driven are located on the head
waters of the Mckay and are about
twenty-five miles from Pendleton. Ii
spite of the great distance quite mum
ber of the people have signi6ed their
intentions of going out to witness th'
| fun.
It is peculiarly fitting just at thii
time when the big Spokane and Port
land papers are exploiting the driv
which is now taking place in Easter
Washington as the last of its kind tha
will ever be held in the West, tha
the Umatilla Indians should begin o.
their annual roundup, which contain
nearly as many horses in the dIiv'
which is being heralded around th
world.
