President and that

The effort to drag the name of
the dead president into the
affair is treated with contempt
on all sides.
The belief is almost universal in
Washington that Heath's high
in the republican
has saved him from being
brought to account for his gross
misfeasances malfeasances in

Washington arrived in this city
today was immediately closet-
ed with the president, who greeted
him warmly.
It transpires that Washington
has received an invitation front
Lord Gray, of the British house of
lords, and connected with the
great South African company, to
go to South Africa make a
study of conditions English
especially as they relate fee
the African race. The
teacher came to consult the pres-
as to the proper course
regarding the proposition. Pres-
Roosevelt would not listen
to Booker's even thinking of
accepting the invitation, telling
him that bis time and talents
were too valuable for the education
of the colored race in tins country
for him to this country for
length of time which the
contemplates.
When asked about the offer
today Washington admitted that
he had received a proposition from
Lord Gray and W. T. Stead, the
famous English publicist, to go to
South Africa and make a
of his views and observations, first
to the South African company and
second to the English government.
Washington has assured the
president that he will accept
the offer.

that makes it to the contrary is a huge farce.
Another point that may be raised in connection with the bailing
of those who killed Jones, that it was setting aside the action of the
grand jury which had already found a true bill for murder against
them. .
We also observe that Judge Shaw, who is now holding court in
Wilson, decides that five of the prisoners must be tried for murder
in the first degree. So it seems that even among judges there is a
difference of opinion on this case.
