The Office Of Recorder.

The office of recorder of deeds
is the best paying official posi-
ton within the gift or the people
of Charlton county, and the preo.
edent of permitting any one
man to hold it for a longer term
than four years should come to
an end, and We know of no better
time tu begin than in 1910.
In the first place the recorders
office is one that any intelligent
15.year.old boy can fill, and in
the second place the large
amount of fees realized by its
holder justifies the conclusion
that he ought to be satisfied with
one term.
Rotation in office is one of the
principles of the Democratic
party, and we are csndidlY of
the opinion that it would be
nothing more than fair and right
for. some other worthy Democrat
to be nominated and elected re.
corder instead of the present
incumbent.
The editor Of the COURIER is
for any competent Democrat who
will make an honest endeavor to
break down the former custom
of giving the recorder two terms
and if no one else can be in.
duced to try conclusions with our
friend, Wayland, the editor of
this paper will make the race in
the hope that he may get ''the
dear people, to look at the stu
alton as he does. But we real
ize we would not have the time,
perhaps, to make anything like a
thorough canvass of the county,
and for that reason would pre-.
fer another candidate and would
be glad to give him our cordial
support,
Who wants to be recorder?
This is q free country and you
have q perfect right to run for
that or any other office to which
you aspire.

PLOT TO DITCH KAISER
DISCOVERED IN BERLIN

Berlin, May 17.-Considerabie comno-
.ion has been caused in political and
court circles by the publication Of a
book. German Rulers by former I'M
perial Councillor Rudolph Martin, in
which the author indicates that a court
plot existed in 1908 to dethrone En-
peror William, or. at least, to deprive
him of all power and to make the crown
prince regent.
Martin u Prince Won Buelow,
then German chancellor, of engineering

privy councillor, Won Holstein, the most
powerful foreign officer Germany had
in many
Tor Buelow was responsible for the
famous London Telegraph and DR..
William Bayard Hale interviews given
out by the kaiser, the latter for publi-
cation in the Century Magazine, which
was suppressed by the German govern
ment. The publication of the london
Telegraph interview, in which the
kaiser took the English to. task for
doubling the integrity Of Germany's
intention, caused a political explosion.
The chancellor, according to Martin,
induced the kaiser to give out these in
terviews by telling him that they would
win English and American support for
Germany, whereas he knew that they
would stir up a storm of wrath against
the kaiser, which, he hoped, would re-
sui la lhiS LIS . WV W. liC
chancellor's retirement from his office,
Martin intimates, was an unexpected
development in the plot. the chancellor
essaying a martyrs role and assuming
the responsibility for the interviews,
in the hope that the public would see
in the supposed sacrifice added cause
to arraign the emperor. To this end
the chancellor made it plain that the
kaiser was responsible for the inter-
views, but that he accepted RESPONSE
bility through patriotism.
Martin charges that Won Buelow
even arranged the hunting trip hat
the kaiser engaged in at that time,
knowing that his absence from the
capital at such a momentous time
would increase the feeling against him.
The chancellor wen went so ar as
to sound the crown prime. regarding
the regency, but only angered the later.
Martin say that Von Buelow's ambi-
ton was to be known as one of the
great pioneer figures in the move for
German democracy, All the German
officials who are by Implication in
yolved in the alleged plot have already
entered the strongest denials.

RUSSIAN " ARE
EXPELLING The JEWS
Official Order Against Long
Prosecuted People Is Being
Enforced.

Kiev. Russia, May 16.-The expulsion
Of Jews residing Illegally in Kiev will
be resumed tomorrow. m some in
stances a delay has been granted tc
permit a settlement Of their affairs,
but all Of those marked for expulsion
must leave the city before June IA.
The order was issued as a result OF
an agitation which began in the duma
and originally provided that the ex-
pulsion should take place on April %
last. Subsequently the order was sus4
pended by Premier Stolypin to permit
a further examination OF Jewish claims
of residence.
The order applied to other cities and
towns where Jews are residing with
out the pale and local commissions
were appointed to revise the list OF
those affected by the order with the
expectation that a large proportion
would be allowed to remain undis.
turbed.
The Kiev commission has con-
sidered thus far about 1000 cases, OF
which $50 have been found to be sub
ject to expulsion. The governor gen
eral has reviewed the decisions of the
commission and confirmed the ax-
pulsion of 700 of those listed.
The Jews remaining in Kiev will be
allowed to occupy summer villas tut
side the city only through special per-
mission granted in Individual cases.

Effort to Secure Dismissal Of

Washington. May 17.-The ndict-

of Oklahoma, in the so-called town lot
indian land cases. will be pressed by
the department of justice, according to
a decision reached by Attorney General
Wickersham. today after a conference
with President Taft. 1t is the plan Of
the department to have a jury pass on
the matter early in June.
Senators Gwen and Gore and con-
gressmen from Oklahoma recently re-
quested the president to select some
disinterested third party Of unques-
toned standing in the country to in
vestigate the cases in Oklahoma from
an impartial standpoint, and determine
whether there was sufficient ground to
continue the prosecutions or not.
Attorney General Wickersham takes
the ground that as the prosecutions
begun under a former administration,
the only thing to do was to have a jury
of Oklahoma citizens pass on a typical
case at the earliest possible moment.
