restrain themselves, that great principles

Oxnard wrote to Palmer on July |,
1908:
After going over the situation. with
our friends here most carefully it was
deemed best that | should not put in
an appearance at the Denver conven-
tion and l feel that it might be better
if you stayed away also. 1t Is all right
for Morey and Cove to be there. But |
feel that our presence would do no
good and might do some harm with our
republican friends at Washington next
winter"
Another written from Chicago on Oc-
tober Z, 1907, to OXnard said:
"Wakeman was with Uncle Joe for
| four hours and feels that he accom-

Haze No Relish
For White Me,,

Cannlbals seldom eat white captives
and then without xest, says . scientific
report on the subject to the German
government by DR.. Hoffman. formerly
q consul In Africa and IN authority
on the subject Of tribal customs.
Writing OF the recent murder Of the
German-American mineralogist. John
Henry Warner. by natives OF New
Guinea, DR.. Hoffman asserts that the
abstention Of cannibals In Africa and
Guinea from the flesh Of white men
Is not because they fear the spirit Of
the white victim or bis powers Of mag
ic, as has been assumed, but because
they consider that It has an unpleas-
ant taste due to use OF sharp spices
and condiments and of salted dishes In
the diet Of the European.
DR.. Holman cites an article printed
several years ago In a journal Of L.
IBERIA in which It was said that the
cannibals In the Liberian territory eat
white man only when he falls into
their hands alive. Then the victim 10
immersed to the neck in . running
brook and held there by bonds for two
or three days, ON much the same prin-
ciple that an oyster II "noated" IN
fresh water after being taken from
tho beds. DIR. Holman has connrma-
ton of this from a former eannibaL
cannibsiIsrs etiIi FisurtshiRV.
The reported killing and eating Of
Mr.. Warner In Papua by the natives
has called attention to the fact that
cannibalism Is by no means stamped
out in New Guinea. Warner believed
that rnduim could 30 found In Papua
and fell . victim to his own SEAL II
10 reported that his two native COM
panions escaped his horrible fate,
news of which they brought to the
coast.
At ono time o0lcial circles believed
that cannibalism was q thing Of the
past in British New Guinea. bot clear
evidence that It has persisted into tho
present decade has been provided BY
witnesses. In = hook
published last year J. n. p, Murray.
governor and chief judicial
ohlcer Of Papua, has much 10 say
about tho practice Of cannibalism
among the natives In the island. He

many years ago were used for cooking
