For years the position of register OF
the treasury has been given to a ne
gro. This job has been looked upon
by the republicans as a compromise
position for the colored voters of the
counfry.
Southern senators have in years
gone by fought similar nominations,
but as the democratic party was so
far in the minority it did little good
But today a L.fferent story is told.
Why President Wilson, a Southern
man by birth, should have stirred up
the fighting blood Of true Southern
congressman by sending over to the
senate the name of a negro for such
a job, cannot be learned. That Sena-
tor Gore was responsible for persuad-
ing the president to send in Patter-
sons name is freely admitted. AS
Oklahoma has a great number Of ne
gro voters it is believed by some that
Gore did it in hope of clinching the
support of the negroes in his State
when he comes up for reelection.

on placing a couple of these crabs

the way in which they change their

A ROMAN SLAUGHTER.
Daniel iNebster's Deadly Work With
the Anciens proconsuls.

49, SNA~'~''~ 'PSsSpsGtSs
Daniel Webster bad accepted the
office Of secretary of state, but did
not meet the new president in Wash
ington until eight or ten days before
the Inauguration. 1t seems that he
had prepared an inaugural address
for General Harrison. One day,
among other arrangements, he sug-
.gcsted to the new president in as
delicate a way as he could the fact
that he had sketched an inaugural
address, knowing that General Har-
rison would be overwhelmed with
calls and business after his election
and he himself having leisure to
write. The general at once replied
that it was not necessary; that he
had prepared his own inaugural.
"Oh, yes. said he's have got all
that ready"
'Will YOU allow me to take it
home and read it tonight" asked
Mr.. Webster.
Certainty" the president replied,
"and please let me take yours"
So they exchanged their docu-
ments, and the next morning when
they met General Harrison said to
Mr.. Webster:
"lf ] should read your inaugural
instead Of miae everybody would
know that you wrote it. Now. this
is the only official paper which /
propose to write, for | do not intend
to interfere with my secretaries, but
this is sort Of acknowledgment on
my part to the American people of
the great honor they have conferred
upon Inc in eIevating me to this
high Office, ana, although. of course,
it is not so suitable as yours, still it
is mine. and | propose to let the
people have it just as | have written
it. must deliver my own instead
of yours
Mr.. Webster was a good deal an
noyed, because the message was, ac-
cording to his judgment and taste,
inappropriate. 1t entered largely
into Roman history and had a good
deal to say about the states of an
tiquity and the Roman proconsuls
and various matters of that kind.
When he found that the president
was bent upon using his own in
augural Mr.. Webster said that his
desire was to modify it and to get
in some things that were not there
and to get out some things that were
there, for as it then stood it had
no more to do with the American
government and people than a chap
ter of the Koran. General Harrison
rather reluctantly consented to let
him take it. Mr.. Webster spent a
part of the next day in modifying
it. Mrs. Seaton remarked to him
when he came home rather late
that day, that he looked rather ia
tigued and worried, but he replied
that lie was sorry that she had
waited dinner for him.
"This is Of no consequence at all,
Mr.. Webster" she said, "but | am
sorry to see you so worried and
tired. | really hope nothing has
happened"
"You would think that something
had happened" he replied, "if you
knew what / have done. I have
