Price 5 cents DR CRUM'S APPOINTMENT COMFIMED Thrice Rejected by the Senate Wins after Bitter Fight Tillman Fought But Lost Washington, D. D. C — Senator Ben Tillman is now in bed and it is because he lost his fight against Dr. W D Crum, a colored man appointed by President Roosvelt to collectorship of Charleston S C The Senate, in executive session confirmed the nomination by a vote of 33 to 17 Dr Crum had been nominated by the President three successive times and has received three recess appointments Tillman made a speech devoted almost entirely to the question of the constitutional right of the president to make a recess appointment, When Dr Crum receives his commission he will be entitled to receive the salary which has accumulated since his first appointment, In the fight the republicans have kept faith on party pledges, thus demonstrating the fact that the party knows no color, and that all men are equal. The colored people throughout the country will hail with unbound delight these glad tidings, while Negro haters will brood over the dead past and mourn the decay of Confederate ideas. ```markdown ``` Cascades Caribou Catastrophe, the most wonderful medical discovery of the age, pleasant and refreshing to the taste, act gently and positively on kidneys, liver and bowels, cleansing the entire system, dispel cold cure readiness, fever, habitual constipation and bilirubinosis.

Poor fool it is a pity that was he born; Within a few weeks the campaign for four aldermen of our city will be on, and the Negro voters will again be called to duty. It is whispered that Alderman Scally may be a candidate for reelection, should there be a citizen ticket, Well, that may be alright, but if Mr Scally are anyone else can be nominated and elected on a citizens ticket in the First ward or rather the "Negro ward" we can't see why some Negro can't be. Someone went through the state during the campaign telling the campaign telling the Negro voters "If the repubicans should carry the state or get a majority in the legislature, that there would be plenty of appointments available to the Negroes." So lucky it was that the repnbticans has everything but the Governor. But see how unlucky the thousands of Negro voters are, there has not been a --- single appointment of high ranks given to one yet A petition is now being circulat ed among the republicans asking for a primary election to decide a choice for postmastee, of which we think is a good method and it will give every candidate a fare chance at the pie, Among those of whom we here are candidates are, E E Coddings, U S Stevens, Lewie Rickey.

Under President Allen the Institute is becoming a great school.

The girls were all loud in their praise of the Institute and in their deportment and general manners said they showed that at Lincoln Institute they were living in an air of culture and refinement. --- Prf. G. L. Coleman, is a candidate for re-election of Supt. of Public Schools. Although there has been no official announcement, but it is loudly whispered that he is a candidate never-the-less. The people of this county have had enough experience with the Professor to be well acquainted with his excellent abilities and intrinsic worth to the people as county superintendent; and it will be an easy matter for him to find a sufficient number of friends who will gladly support him and return him to the superintency. The office is non political and unlimited, and the president may be elected to an indefinite term if the voters so decide and it is hoped that they will in case of professor G. L. Coleman, Joseph Guy who was appointed as janitor of the court house, will begin his work February 1st. We are proud that a Negro was given job because it long sence been due them. Mr Guy is a nice, honest christain gentleman and a man of experience in this work, but has never taken an active part in the battles for our, only that of voting. While we believe that he will make an excellent janitor in every particular. We believe "that to the victors belong the spoils" are rath en those who fight and win the victory should cerry away the loyals. If this is true then there no reward or returns for those who do fight year in and year for the success of the republican party. in our city county or state politics The following is taken from the Advocate, Fortland Ore.—Which is a suitable advice to many of our Sedalians—As men grow older they are supposed to grow wiser. Just how old a man must be before he begins to get wise is very hard to tell, for we have seen some old men who had not reached the point, while some quite young men seem to know a thing or two. However, keen observation and long experience will generally bring the average mind to clear convictions and study actions We have often wondered why our people do not see the error of so much fun of the high priced sort. There are many others that nothing comes too rich for them—not even the automobile can shut them out. We wear everything that comes out.

We are losing jobs all over the country and finding no new way to get ahead, Our people must get into the habit of saving their money, and of making business for themselves. No man who makes less than $75 a month can afford to keep up with the social whirl. We are socially spoiled.

And up with my breast till the breath of the West Is smitting me—knight of the plain! Ah, give me a gleam of your eyes, love, a dream With the kiss of the sun and the dew, And mountain nor swale, nor scorch nor the hail Shall halt me from spurring to you!

"Some men like to be fussed over, and some don't," said the communicative barber. "Some of 'em think they are not getting their money's worth unless we give 'em hot towels, face massage and all the other fancy trimmings, while others want a quick shave and seem to grudge even the few minutes that it takes. It's hard to size up a new customer until you get used to his whims. One of my regulars is so stuck on getting shaved that he comes in twice a day, morning and evening, and he hasn't a heavy beard at that. Every other day would be enough for him if it wasn't that he takes a delight in lying back in the chair for half an hour or so and just being prinkled up," he wants everything that's going, even to the electrical massage, which few men will stand for. Although I'm a barber, I don't see where it comes in myself; but there is no accounting for tastes." Philadelphia Record. EFFECT OF THE ANTHEM. Somewhat Startling Until the Whole Line Was Sung. It was a new anthem, composed by the village organist, and this was its effect. The soprano started off with the very laudable, though rather starting, announcement—"I will wash." Straightway the alto, not to be outdone, declared she would wash. And the tenor, finding it to be the thing, warbled forth he would wash. Then the deep-chested basso, as though calling up all his fortitude for the plunge, bellowed forth the stern resolve that he would wash. Next a short interlude on the organ, strongly suggestive of the escaping of steam or splash of the waves, after which the choir, individually and collectively, asserted the firm, unshaken resolve that they would wash. At last they solved the problem by stating that they proposed to "wash their hands in innocence."—London Tit Bits. Vegetation on the Moon Whether or not there really is vegetation on the moon's surface is a matter of some dispute. Prof. Pickering believes that there is, basing his belief upon observations of what he has called "variable spots"—portions which exhibit a rapid darkening, beginning shortly after sunrise, followed by an equally rapid fading toward sunset, accompanied by a diminution in size as they darken. From the peculiar character of the variation observed, Prof. Pickering concludes that organic life resembling vegetation is the only simple explanation of the changes which he has observed. Considering the long lunar day as a miniature terrestrial year, the theory of such life becomes colorable. The vegetation, if there be any, shoots up, flourishes and dies in a lunar day just as it grows and withers on the earth in a terrestrial year. PATENTS WOULD HAVE LET THEM DROWN Silight Change Critic Suggested in Young Author's Book "At your request," said the kindly critic to the young author, "I have read your book from beginning to end." “So good of you,” returned the young author. And now I want you to feel that you can speak frankly and tell me just what you think about it. I suppose you saw a great deal in that you would change if it were left to you.” “No-o,” replied the kindly critic, thoughtfully. “On the whole I think I may say there was very little.” “Really!” exclaimed the young author, delightedly. “Do you know, I had an idea you’d tear the whole book so pieces, figuratively speaking, of course. I can’t tell you how pleased I am. But of course there are some changes that you would advise relative to the publication of a second edition. What are they?” “There’s only one that’s of mouch importance,” said the critic. “And that?” asked the young author inquiringly. “Why, that’s where the hero jumps from the yacht into the ocean to save the heroine from drowning.” “Is it to thrilling? Wouldn’t you have him jump after her?” Inquired the young author anxiously. “No, it’s not too thrilling,” was the reply, “and of course I would have him go in after her, but, you see, they are both rescued. I would not have that.” “You—you wouldn't have them rescued?” “Certainly not. Let them both drown.” “But this happens in the first chapter—almost the first thing in the book.” “Precisely. That’s just when it ought to happen.” The Boy Next Door. Oft I've enved goodly people that could boast a model for The kind that will not fight or shout or break each costly toy—the house has Who never tracks his muddy boots about playthings, nor things. And they did all these things! And whenever I would hide him, and his reckless ways deplore I would always bid him pattern by the boy that lived next door. Yet the playthings would get broken in the careless little hand. And my head was the high to bursting when he brought his peate band To tear the house to atoms—while I talked and talked in vain To keep the small hot fingers from my sitting window pane. When he's a new trousers of his ruffled shirt he tore He would say he didn't want to hear of that good boy next door. Now at last I've perfected quiet—there is stillness every day: And my window panes so grimly have grown clear and bright for a year. And I'm a little eyes to find the slightest mud to print on the floor- But alas—my house is spotless as the boy's that lives next door! How I listen—till my longing ears do ache—to catch a sound; And it only could find a shoe or broken toy around! But, ah no!—only hearken, hearken vainly evermore. And I only hear the laughter of the boy that lives next door. —Harper's Bazar. Tract Has Bloody Record. On the six miles between the two rivers, North and South Canadians, there have been forty-two lives lost, all being in good health at the time of their death. On this six miles of railroad and wagon road, running parallel with the railroad, seven negroes, twenty whites and thirteen Indians have been killed one way or another. Twenty-four of these went the gun route, one committed suicide, two were killed by being run over by wagons, three by driving on the railroad right-of-way, two were killed by horses on right-of-way, a tramp was burned to death, a bridge hand met death by falling off a bridge, one, a woman, not known how she came to her death, one boy was killed by a horse. Out of this great lot of killed only seven were killed by officers; two by Creek Indian officers, who were executed by shooting. In this lot of deaths there was no accidental shooting; they all knew that the gun was loaded and used it to kill.—Kansas City Journal. HUMPHREYS' OIL Piles of Hemorrhoids Fissures & Stultas.

I will now give you and his history of my case, to be used at your discretion. About five years ago, my right car began to sing, and this kept on getting worse, until I lost my hearing in this car entirely. I underwent a treatment for catarrh, for three months, without any success, consulted a number of physicians, among others, the most cientent car specialist of this city, who told me that only an operation could help me, and even that only temporarily, that the head noises would then cease, but the hearing in the affected car would be lost forever. I then saw your advertisement accidentally in a New York paper, and ordered your treatment. After I had used it only a few days according to your directions, the noises ceased, and today after a few weeks, my hearing in the diseased ear has been entirely restored. I thank you heartily and beg to remain. F. A. WERMAN, 730 S. Broadway, Baltimore, Md. Our treatment does not interfere with your usual occupation. Examination and advice free.
