The Salisbury Fair.

The Wicomico Fair. which takes place
at Salisbury next week. promises to be
the best fair in the history of the Assoc
citation.
Not only will the concessions and at
fractions in the novelty line be better
than heretofore, but Secretary White
has enthused new life into the exhibit
tors, with the promise that the live
stock. poultry and farm products ex-
hibits will be the best Wicomico Coun-
tians have had chance to see for many
a day.
Special stress is laid upon the aero
plane flights which will be given daily
during the life of the fair. The con-
tract has been signed up with the Cur
tiss Aeroplane Company calling for
daily flights over the grounds and the
city, and for altitude flights each day
also.
The Hippodrome Races carry from IL
to 10 spirited horses and able riders and
drivers. Chariot races. running races,
high jumping with the horses. and 9th
er exciting events will be given daily.
In the front of the grand stand will
be thrilling aerial feats. The famous
Marion family, consisting of four gen.
tlemen and three ladies'. have been en-
gagged to give daily exhibits. This act
is claimed to be the biggest aerial stunt
in America. Wonderful gymnastic feat
ures are performed by the actors on a
rigging suspended thirty feet in the air.
This is the first real big aerial perform
ance ever given by any Fair in this sec
ton of the country, and should prove
interesting and amusing to all. Con-
sists of single. twisting. and half and
and double somersault to catch and
return, aerial casting, dives and triple
somersault to net.
The races promise to be the best ever
held in this county. The purses for ~
races total nearly four thousand dollars,
enough To attract fast horses. The
course is in fine form. and will be kept
up to speed during the races.
Altogether, the thousands who attend
the fair next week may look for big
things doing each day.

KOOSeVeIt AIlu ne lNcyTO.
Mr.. Roosevelt's position on
the negro question will not
stand analysis. What he says
about the Republican Party
seeking for forty-tive years to
build up a party in the South
consisting almost exclusively
of negroes, and about the re-
pugnance of Northern Republi-
cans to the free participation of
the negroes in the North in
party affairs or party appoint
ments, is all true: but there has
been none among the Republi-
cans who has done as much TO
exalt the negro i'm the South as
Mr.. Roosevelt himself when he
was President. For seven years
he "cottoned to" the Southern
negro in politics. He did not
take counsel of the white people
of the South. He knew them,
as he admits now, that "in act
ual practice the result has been
productive of evil to the col
ored men themselves" He
knows that the colored men
who sat in his own convention
were of precisely the same type,
were, in fact, largely the same
individuals as the colored men
who sat in the recent Republic
can Convention in Chicago. He
knows, no one knows better,
that these were the colored men
whom he encouraged to take an
active part in politics in the
South. to whom he made not the
slightest objection when they
were serving his purposes and
with whom he was in the
closest touch during his two
administrations.
There was Booker Washing
ton, the greatest of American
colored men. who dined at the
White House with Mr.. Roose-
Welt and whom he consulted in
matters of political appoint
ments in the South. There was
the case of the colored woman
who was appointed Postmistress
at Hattiesburg. Miss. against
the wishes Of the white people
served Mt this office and for no
other purpose than to magnify
the colored people of the South
whom he would now exclude
from the councils of his new
party. IL is Il somewhat strange
coincidence, if so it may be
called, that the point against
seating Southern negroes in the
Bull Moose Convention turned
really upon the case of the me-
groes from Mississippi seeking
an entrance into the larger life
of the Nation through this
door of hope"
Take the case of DR.. w. ID.
Crum, who was appointed Col
lector of Customs at Charleston
against the protests of all the
commercial bodies in the town
and State and South, of the City
Council, of the State Legisla-
ture, of a number of commercial
bodies in the north; against the
advice of Charles Emory Smith,
a member of his Cabinet;
against the protests of Repub-
lican Senators and Representa-
tives from the Northern States
An appointment that was
confirmed only after it had been
made three times. There was
no objection made by Mr.. Roose-
Welt TO the Southern negroes sit
ting in Republican Conventions
in those days. There was no
objection to the Southern negro
delegates being rounded up for
Mr.. Taft when Mr.. Roosevelt
was selecting his own successor.
There was no objection when
Gen. James S. Clarkson was
sent through the South, with
the advice and aid of Mr.. Roose-
welt, to keep the Southern me-
