RvESViLLE, Jan. 3.-fn the West
Virginian of recent date we see the
name Of Mr.. Charles Watts, Of Fair
mont, as wharfmaster and we say
success to the old war horse Of the
sixties and think no better man could
have been selected for the position.
But Rivesyille cannot easily keep
from holding a little grudge at the
captain for various reasons, as the
following explains:
Some time ago a certain fellow who
had always known Mr.. Watts, but
whom the old soldier had not seer Tor
a long time and had about forgotten,
approached him at the wharf and
said, Hello, here. old man, do you
know how far it is to Ri~vesville?'
Eyes, sir" was the quick reply, -four
miles; and this boat leaves for there
in ten minutes, are you going on it?'
About that time the boat gave every.
body in Fairmont a reminder OF what

or get out Of my way" says the wor
ried old rebel shooter. Say, please,
who are the leading citizens down
there?" asked the insignificant nuts.

me to locate?" Eyes I do, the town

GIVE TEDDY NO CHANCE
OKLAHOMA ASKED TO KEEP RACE
ISSUE OUT OF THE CON-
S~TlTUTiON.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 3.-One un-
looked for result OF the Brownsville
affair has just become known. For
several days past the Democratic
leaders in the House and Senate have
been writing imploring letters TO the
leaders in the Constitutional Conven-
ton of Oklahoma begging them to
keep all mention OF the race question
out OF the new States Constitution.
The Democrats carried Oklahoma
en the race issue. They planned Jim
Grow cars and all the other means of
scgregating the races which are in
vogue in the southern States. The
leaders here are pleading with the Ok
lahoma leaders to leave it oIt of the
Constitution and do 1t by legislative
enactment.
The reason the leaders give is that
II Oklahoma adopts such a Constitu.
ton the President will undoubtedly
seize the opportunity thus given to
square himself with the friends of the
negroes in the north, whom he has
alienated by his action in the Browns.
vile matter. They are certain that he
would send in a message full of square
deal epigrams. throwing the Constitu.
ton out or the ground that It does
not square with the Constitution OF the
United States.

SENATE COMPROMISE
on IMMIGRATION BILL
INSPECTION ABROAD PROPOSED
IN LIEU OF EDUCATIONAL
TEsT-sPEAkER IN IA.
voR OF IT.

WASHINGTON, Jan. IA tentative
scheme has at last been patched up
for getting action on the Immigration
bill that has been pending in confer.
ence since the adjournment OF the last
session of Congress. The hitch has
ben all along on the educational quail.
h%cations inserted by the Senate at
ter the House had registered the
speakers opposition to 1t by dropping
IT out of the bill as reported.
There have been several confer.
ences In the last few days between the
speaker and some Senators, with the
result that a compromise agreement
has been reached which will be pass
ed upon by the conferees at an early
meeting. This agreement eliminates
the educational test, but substitutes
for It a modified form OF the old con
sular ~certification. 1t proposes to es
tabfish abroad a corps Of Immigration
Inspectors who shall be physicians
They will be stationed at the ports oil
embarkation for immigrants.
All immigrants will be expected tc
pass their examination. not only as tc
health, but also as to other considera
lions of ~desirabiiity or undesirabiifty
as immigrants. The inspectors will
certify to the steamship companies the
results Of their examinations, and will
forward copies to the immigration off
Gals at the ports of destination of the
emigrants. Naturally, the STEAMSHIP
companies will refuse to transport
persons reported upon ~unfavorably b,
the inspectors.
There has been some doubt on The
part OF the Senators interested as tc
whether foreign countries would per
nit the establishment of such a corp.
Of inspectors within their territories
aside from the point Of constitutional
ity. Both objections have been waiv
ed. and an effort will be made to have
the plan adopted by Congress.
The further objection is made to /
that 1t would place in the hands of coi
rnpt inspectors a tremendous oppor
tunity for graft and an arbitrary pow
ct OF rejecting immigrants who nigh
be In all respects desirable. But the
compromise has the sanction Of the
speaker, and that settles it as far q.
the House is concerned.

WASHINGTON. Jan. John Sharp
Williams has declined the Presidency.
The Industrious booming of him
throughout the south, ant ever the
enthusiastic Endorsement by Chair.
man Griggs, fail to move him. Within
the last few days this southern boom
ing has reached the National capital,
and considerable talk OF Williams for
President has developed here. He APP
preciates the honor offered him by his
boomers. but he cannot accept 1t be.
cause the White House is too damp
and Kit and Sallie might catch cold.
II scarcely deem 1t necessary at this
time to issue a formal statement OF
declination." he said to a reporter to-
day, bat you may say for me and by
my authority that ] am not taking
any steps whatever toward securing
the Presidency. The fact is, you may
say that I have decided not to take
the place
Mr.. Williams was seated in the par
lor of the house on Vermont avenue,
where he boards. He raised his big
spectacles from the point of his nose,
placed them high up on his forehead,
and drawing his two forefngers with
an outward movement beneath his
deep gray eyes. he gave his reason in
his solemn drawl.
NO" he said. II will not deny that
I have had an idea of accepting this
place. for / believe It is about time
for some returning sanity in the neigh
horhood OF the White House. But. as
you know, I am q man of family, and
have several small children. Mrs
Williams and ! have talked the mat
ter over, and 1t is her opinion hat the
atmosphere of the White House is toe
damp. Some OF the children might
take cold. So out OF difference to Mrs
Williams, I have decided not to take
the place.
But what will your friends think Of
this?" was asked. Some one mention
ed Charlie Edwards, the minority com
mittee's secretary. and the secretary
OF the late Democratic ongress Cam
paign Committee.
"Well, when | was in mind to &C
cept the place." he replied, again rub
bling his eyes, II tried to get Charlie
to oppose me SO that l might have
some chance of election, but since
have decided not to take 1t on account
OF the dampness of the White House
| am letting Charlie support me-"
The Democratic leader seems mex
orable. AS he walked down the steps
he turned to the reporter, and looking
over the big spectacles N pointing
his finger in the way so well known II
the House of Representatives, said
Mind you, now. put 1t on that ground
1t is not my fault. I should have ne
special objections to it, so far as ! an
personally concerned. but Mrs. vii

she feels sure that Kit and Salli,
would catch their death of cold NJ
