THE PRESIDENT
STANDS FIRM
HPUr.3 TO HI3 CBITICSJ-RACE
OR CREED NO GAR
OFFICE.
'Atlanta, Oa., March 2. A letter
from President Itooiievelt to the edi
tor of the Constitution in reply to a
request for an expression concerning
'.he recent letter from Harry Btlllwell
Edwards of Mac;on, in which Edwards
made a statement of tne president's
josltlou in the mattor of federal ap
iclntments in tho South, holding that
ino president had been misunderstood
President Iloosevelt says In part:
"In making apiiolritnientg I have
sought to consider the feeling of tbe
people of each locality so far as I
could consistently do so, without sac
rificing principle. The prime tests I
have applied have been those of char
acter, nu.CHH and ability.
"I certainly will rxt treat mere color
as a permanent bar to holding oflice.
any more tiian 1 could so treat creed
or Mitiiplace always provided that In
othi r reni-ei.ta the applicant or incum
bent Is a wuithy and well-behaved
American citizen. Just an little will
1 treat it us conferring a right to hold
office. I have cear.t sympathy with
the man of mere theory, who refuses
to fane facts; but do you not think
that In the Ions run It Is safer rcr
everybody If we act on the motto,
'All men up' rather than on that of
'Some men down?'
"I have consulted freely with your
own senators and congressmen as to
tho character and capacity of any ap
pointees iu Georgia concerning whom
there was question.
"I may add that the proportion of
colored men among these new ap
pointees is only about one in a hun
dred. "In view of all these facta I have
been surprised and somewhat pained
at what seema to me an incomprehen
sible outcry In the South about my
actions an outcry apparently started
in New York for reasons wholly un
connected with the question nomally
at Issue. I am not in the least angry,
and still less will this attitude have
the effect of making me swerve one
hair's breadth to one side or tbe other
from the course I have marked out
the course I have consistently fol
lowed In the past and shall consist
ently follow In the future."

FIELD AT BAY
BY A WOMAN
SHERIFF'8 WIFE 8ECURES REVOL
VER AND RU3HE8 TO JAIL,
PREVENTING OUTBREAK.
Olympla, Wash., March 2. Christ
Benson, a grand larceny prisoner in
the county jail, yesterday afternoon
killed Jailer David Morrell and made
his escape. Benson left open the in
ner and outer doors of the jail. Mrs.
Jessie Mills, wife of the sheriff, ar
rived on the scene with a revolver
In time to prevent several prisoners
from gaining their liberty.
Benson, who was considered a quiet
prisoner, was placed in an anteroom
off the main entrance of the jail. In
the night Benson wronchod loose a
piece of lead drain pipe and concealed
it In his clothing. About 2 o'clock
yesterday afternoon the prisoners were
given their riilililay meal in the main
corridor and then Jailer Morrell start
ed to lock all but Benson and a trusty
named Kahia into the steel tank. He
had bis hack to Benson and was lock
ing the door when Ben3on struck u.m
on tbe head.
The door of the corridor was open
and Benson ran out into the main
entrance with the jailer In pursuit.
Benson failed to get the outer door
open and the two men clinched in tho
main mtrance. It is supposed that
Morrell drew hia revolver and that
Benson succeeded in getting It away.
There was a desperate fight, in
which Morrell was struck on the head
four times with the pipe, shot in the
body twice and through the head once
and left lying dead on the floor. Ben
son got the outer door open and, cov
ered with blood, ran up one of the
main residence streets of the town and
disappeared In the brush.
Kahla, who had been scared Into
hiding, ran to the sheriff's home near
by, but found only the sheriff's wife.
Mrs. Mills, however, secured a revol-'
ver and reached the jail in time to in
tercept the tank prisoner on the door
step, where they were held by her un
til an officer appeared.
