"SAYS S THE NEGROES MUST 0. Open Letter on the Race Question Fr General M. C. Butler. New York Sun. former United States senator, has ing with the race problem. It is of negroes at Greenville. “I am no apologist for lawlessness at the hands of any claes,” he says, “but public meetings and denuncia- : tions will not cure this disease. isin the blood and will break out somewhere else. You must strike at the root to eradicate it. “The{poor white men who have to earn their bread by the sweat of their faces, can not compete with cheap negro labor. To attempt to do so implies their degradation and ultimate destruction or expatriation. One race must go to the wall, and with the kindest feelings of good will toward the negro, I must side with my own race. Two races can not live together in peace, on terms of equal civil and political rights, and the sooner we realize that the better for both races. “The separation of the races is the only solution of the terrible problem. It is very easy for Tillman and others to denounce tne lawless- ness of the ‘one gallus, wool-hat crowd. Let Mr. Tillman and those who join him as the guardians of the negro put themselves in the poor white man,s place and walk between plow handles from sun up to sun- down in competition with negro labor at $2 a month, a peck of meal and three pounds of bacon a week. “Some justification for this law- lessness may be dug from the depths of poverty into which cheap labor has plunged many worthy whites. Cheap labor is the curse of any country. The trials of white men for whitecapping would be a farce and lawlessness would not end. “The government of the United States ought to appropriate $100,- 000,000 and duplicate it as often as necessary to assist the negroes ia settling a colony to themselves. This was done for the Indians when they could not live at peace with whites. A temporary inconvenience by the negro leaving the country might re- sult, but the whites would meet the emergency. “The wild harangues of men who openly advise the murder of the Tolberts and keeping the negro in a state of quasislavery deserve the execration of right-thinking men. That is not the way to bring peace and order into a country. “The methods of the negro do not justify an attempt to lift him up by increased wages. So long as the races are in immediate contact on present terms lynchings, whitecap pings, mob law, every form of law lessness, will constantly society, obstruct progress and keep up a state of anxiety.” Tabler’s Buckeye Pile Ointment relieves the intense itching.

SHOT SEV A Rough Rider’s Rough Experience at San Juan. “Yes,” said a gentleman from | Vinita, I. T.,“\I knew Tilden Dawson and all the other Rough Riders who |left our town during the Spanish war. Our people are arranging to erect a monument to Tilden Daw- | son’s memory. : “Most of our boys brought back wounds to show that they had been in the thickest of the fray. One of them Tom Isbell, now with Buffalo Bill’s Show, caught seven Mauser ballets in his first fight. He is about 22 years af age and is the son of the well known deputy U.S. marshal He also enjoys the distinction of bowling over the first Spaniard kill- ed in that memorable attack. He was one of a line of skirmishers who volunteered for this particularly dangerous service. In speaking of the affair, he said: ““<We were considerably in ad- vance of the command. Our orders were if we saw any considerable number of the enemy to fire at them, but if only one man to hold our fire. I caught sight of a Spaniard and I felt so sure of getting him I could not resist trying ashot. I bowled him over and then h—l opened. I don’t know how many shots were fired at me, but it seemed to me the entire Spanish army was shooting right at me. In less time than you can bat your eye, I caught seven Mauser bullets, and of course sank in my tracks. It seemed to me that a million bullets were flying about me. It was more like a swarm of bees than anything I can liken it to. My comrades came up on the double and passed by me as I lay and you know the rest.’ ” Pennies, Nickels and Dimes. Washington, Aug. 31.—“Dimes, quarters and half dollars are turned out by all the mints as rapidly as they can be produced, said an officer of the treasury to-day. ‘‘The demand for fractional currency and silver dollars is unprecedented. The re- quests do not come from one section of the country, but from every sec- tion. It is estimated that the orders received at the Treasury department will average over $60,000 in frac- tional currercy a day.” Treasyrer Roberts said that the demand was due to the activity in business. An order was issued to the California mint August 1, he said, to turn out $150,000 worth of dimes, quarters and bulves a month until further notice, only for the use of the Pacific coast. Another thing mentioned by Treasurer Roberts was the increased demend for pennies in the West and South where but comparatively few of these coins have previously been used. He attributed the increased use of pennies to the war revenue act which requires the use of internal revenues stamps on telegrams and checks.

Y¥. | only thing I’m | Is IN NEED OF A HUSBAND. Woman's Failure toSWed Clouds Title to} Her Legacy. | Macon, Mo., Aug. 30.—A singular | suit was tried before Judge J. W. Roberts in the probate court here today. The plaintiff was | Elizabeth Quinsberry of Kansas City, and she sued her sister, Miss Mary Hill, aged 52, of Caldwell county, to recover $2,500 in gold from her father’s estate, which she accused her sister of embezzling. The court, after hearing the evi- dence, found for the defendant. The plaintiff's counsel then filed inter- rogatories and the trial will come up on its merits before a jury. A large farm near Macon was deeded to Miss Hill by her father a long time before his death. In the deed was the curious clause, how- ever, that it was only to be hers on condition of her marriage. She failed to perform the condition and is still unwedded. In spite of this, however, she took possession of the land at her father’s death, which occurred last February. The land, which is a -few miles west of Macon, was sold recently and Miss Hill retained the proceeds. The sister raises the; point that not having complied with \the matrimo- nial condition of the deed, Miss Hill can claim no title to the land, and if the court takes this view the maiden defendant, whose hair is now shot with silver, will have to hunt upa husband soon or hand oyer the money she received for the property bequeathed her by the father to whom for over twenty-five years she had given constant care and atten- tion.

Ex-Senator Mantle of Montana, recently retired by an unappreciative constituency, is a bachelor, and has long been regarded by the managing mammas in Washington as a very desirable “catch,” for, besides wear- ing the toga, he has some mining property that yields him a pretty income. Society was somewhat electrified, therefore, when he an- nounced at a dinner given in his honor shortly before he left town that he was delighted at going, because he wanted to see his sweet- heart from whom he had been separated for a long time. “Your sweetheart!’ exclaimed those near him. “Have you had a sweetheart all this time? Do tell us about her.” “Yes I have a sweetheart” answer- ed the senator frankly, “and I have not seen her since I jeft Butte in the fall Dear woman, she’s all I’ve got and I’m all she’s got.” “What’s her name?” ‘Is she pretty?” How old is she?” were some of the questions the blushing senator was pressed to answer, but he held his peace until a pretty thing of whom the senator had been sus | pected of being rather fond, said: | “Now, senator, please do tell us) about her for we can’t congratulate | you until we know something of| your fiance ” “She's not pretty,sbe’s beautiful,” | i responded the senator finally, bis| face growing tender, ‘‘and she’s not} very young, somewhere between 70 and 80, and her name—her name is the same as mine—Mantle. sweetheart is my mother.
