Roosevelt’s latest negro ap

seems.
While Benjamin Ide Wheeler
says that Hay will remain in the

^President Roosevelt intends
to follow the precedent lie set by
appointing the negro forger as
postmaster in South Carolina,

expence by sentencing criminals
to federal jobs on conviction.
In North Carolina a few days
ago a man sentenced to death
for the crime of burglary. He
had, in the dead of night, brok
en into a residence in which
people were asleep. The
assumes that under such
stances the burglar is
to kill and will kill if he is
lested, therefore he is really
murderer at heart and a
ous menace to society.
It was officially stated at
session of the Cotton States
sociation of Commissioners
Agriculture, just held in
Rogue, that, taking short
and long staple together,
value of the cotton crop
this year to $418,358,366.
dent Poole, in making this
ment, went further and
that the planter is now
pendent at last; that he
make cotton as a money
and, after raising all
crops for home consumption,
can make as much cotton as
chooses and hold it for fair
just prices. He said the
will be marketed at the
rate, 10 cents or over.
What a grand condition!
South cannot go backward now.
We are living in the sunshine
complete resuscitation of
energies. President Poole
well have gone farther and
shown that not only has the
planter reached that stage
plantation development when
cotton becomes the money
and he can live at home, but the
orchardist, the miner and
gardener have in the meantime
added to the income of the
South as many millions as have
been spilled from the bolls of
the cotton plant itself.
The day of the South’s
mercial and industrial supreme

ble wealth with which nature
has endowed the section is just
beginning to be developed.
capitalists of other sections and
of foreign parts are resizing
opportunities and

were villages a few years ago,
there are now cities of modern
character. The railroad com
panies have gridironed and
criss-crossed the whole grand
