vertising Medium it has no competitor.

cording to tenor or purpose.
Mr. Roosevelt and the Colored Voter.
The r. huk, admninistered by the President
to th, so .d 'Lily White'' republicans
of the -~:h was thoroughly well deserved
a :l +'n:ir. ' In keeping with his reputation
for lair pl.> auni honest fighting. He could
nit v,ry w, have failed to take such ac
lion. As a 'itizen he has always affiliated
with th.- ,arty which stands for equal
rigts for ail m in before the law, and as a
saldier In' fought side by side with negro
troops in 'uba and received from them
some viu bh- and tim(ly assistance in the
balti, -f San Ju:an hill. As President of the
t'niteid Stat,s he stands for all the people.
Every i:,-onsidieration, therefore. of justice,
duty. gratitud" and manhood required that
he set his face in opposition to a movement
inaugurated in the name of his party
against a leading principle of the party and
in flat violation of the spirit of our Ameri
can institutions.
In discussing this question it is not neces
sary to go back to the enfranchisement of
an Ignorant and helpless race. But if that
is desired tiere need be no hesitation about
confessing that a very great mistake was
made when :he electorate wan so enlarged.
The gray, st injustice was dor.e both to the
negro and to the white man, and both have
since paid a severe penalty for legislation
t nacted partly in anger and partly in ignor
ance of or contempt for most probable con
sequences.
But thir:y-odd years of freedom and lim
ited opportunity must now be taken into
the account. There are many negroes who
by industry, patience and a correct walk
have made homes for themselves and shown
the proper appreciation of the requirements
of good citizenship. They pay taxes, they
educate their children, they obey the laws,
and they enjoy the respect of their more
reputable white neighbors. What shall be
come of the,se men? Shall they be bracketed
with the thriftless and criminal and un
worthy of their race and cast into outer
darkness?' Have they no claims upon con
sideratin? Will the state benefit by op
pressing such people? How is it possible?
The negro question is national, and
It must be dealt with in a national
spirit and on national lines. In the
south the negro is barred from the
polls. In the north his vote is solicited. He
Is coddlid as election day approaches and
nuie much of. In New York Tammany
Hall boasts of an ally who by reason of his
shrewdness and capacity as a political
worker is known as the "colored Croker."
He histh s among his race for votes for
Tammany's tickets, and he is supplied with
the sinews of war out of Tammany's strong
box. Why this difference? Is this "colored
Croker" a worthier man than the colored
farmer in the south who owns his home
and respeers himself and obeys the laws
under which he lives?
New York Novelties.
Trust New York for novelties. So many
extraordinary things happen there, all the
way from a phenomenal political majority
to a shocking murder case, that the read
ing public is no longer amazed when the
prints tell of some new wrinkle in the way
of sensation. The other night an explosion
of fireworks occurred in the very heart of
a crowd of nearly twenty thousand people.
The marv,I was that more than the dozen
who lost their lives were not killed. Be
hiini that was a more serious question, why
the display was permitted under such dan
g,rous conditions. The answer that it was
th,' New York way seems to have satisfied
the curinsity of the public at large. Now
comes news of the burning of a steel bridge
tower. Last night the East River bridge
structure, under construction, caught fire
and blazed for a long time, with fatal re
euilts and : damage to the work which is
estimated at from half a million to a mil
lion and a half. This is positively unique
and, again. it is New Yorkesque.
The disaste r is serious apart from the im
mediate loss of life and values, for it is
likely to set hack the wor.k of construction
several nmonths, and in the present condi
tion of New York's avenues of communica
tion with B3rooklyn such a delay Is to be
deeply deplored. The transportation prob
lem is acut' now and becoming more so
with every month as the population of the
b>ig city swells and the facilities for carry
lng it from place to place fall to keep pace.
The second East river bridge should have
been in uise a dozen years ago, but it Is
New York's way to delay such proJects un
til necissity crowds the program to execu
tion. For niany' months now the conditions
around the New York entrance to the old
Brooklyn bridge have been so bad as to
cail forth the denunciations of the rnost
conservative citizens. Human life is placed
there ini jeopardy every hour. Yet action
is postponied fro-n time to time while plans
are considered and disputes arise between
engine.'rs and politIcal influences are get
ting In their work. .And each day's delay
adds to the difficulty. For a hustling, busi
tes-like community New York sets a very
slow pace for itself at times and suffers
from niany handicaps by accidents such as
this latest disaster.
The Bennin.g race meet is distinguished by
the usual riadline'ss to sell "expert informa
tion" which would make its possessor rich
If be wouldi keelp it to hImself.
The public will be glad to have a verdict
in the Mlolin( ux case. There are more re
aent sensations with a better cla!m to pop
ular Inter' t.
Comm. rially, this country has decidedly
the b-st of it. No American heiresses are
SLdv'ertising fir F uropecan nioblemeni.
Tammany's Lease of Life.
Thb l'wlan Times cloa,s an editorial on
the Amt ri an ilectionis with the following
solemn obs< rvation:
"it is dliscreditable, and even disquieting,
to discover that Ta'mmany Hall, so often
reported struck idown with a mortal blow. is
more vior4ous and aggressive than ever."
A mortal blow for Tammany? Why Tam
many is immotnrtal. At any rate it promises
:o live as luig as the gover'nment does. It
is a ixedi institution. It, performs defnite
fution hrs. 'rie people of New York appear
to be uniall to get along without it. No
other fe attrc of our political life affords
mort int,r.st or wonder to the student than
this or'gaiz:ation1, whIch, with Its work In
corruption, is yet the chosen instrument re
p.'ateiy of meii of character and conscience
for the. forwarding of their public, and now
anid thin of thi-ir private, aims,
To illuistraute: L.ast year Tammanty was
sco.urgetd from offiee. for offenses so rank
they smilIed from Harlem to the Battery.
Ther.- was a union of effort to get rid of a
rulewhich hail disgraced and was despoil
ing the town. Richard Croker on the out
side was "working for his pocket all the
time," and wnany of his lieutenants on the
inside were quite as Industrious in quite as
outrageous a way. The result was a revolt
on the part of mnany men who had helped
vote Tammany int,o powen, Biir' 3. fa.
was willing to head an oppoSition ticket for
tion, and then supported Tammany. but in
a paper he had published on the subject of
commerslam in politics he had armed
Tammanys opponents in the campaign
with a telling weapon. The city, by a.large
majority, was rescued from a loathsome
clutch.
This year New York smiles on Tammany
again. Mr. Coler in his race for governor
solicits and receives the support of Tam
many. He hobnobs with its leaders before
election, and cordially thanks them by let
ter for their support after the election.
Tammany has not changed since last year.
It is in the main composed of the same
gang of strikers and looters that an aroused
public sentiment then drove from power.
Its rehabilitation next year-and Tuesday's
action is bound to have an influence in that
direction-will mean a reinauguration of
the reign of plunder which was interrupted
when Seth Low took office.
The reason for all this? There seems to
be no reason for it unless that impatience
may be called a reason which leads an elec
torate to willingly return to the foulest of
rules after one It has established for the
purposes of correction has failed to reach
the unattainable heights of perfection.
A mortal blow for Tammany? No, in
deed! The blows, hard as they sometimes
are. which are administered to Tammany
are never delivered with the view of knock
ing the organization entirely out, and they
never have that effect. Walt until 1904 and
see certain men in New York who are now
eloquent in denouncing Tammany lock
shields with Mr. Croker and his lieutenants
and rush into the presidential engagement
upon terms which will inure to Tammany's
benefit in the event of success at the polls.

Democracy and Leadership.
In some of the discussion of the democ
racy's present needs the name of the late
William E. Russell of Massachusetts is
mentioned and the opinion expressed that
if he were alive the opportunity would be
his. Ills leadership, it is asserted, would
be readily accepted, and success with him
as the presidential candidate In 1904 would
certainly be accomplished. Is not this but
another evidence of the rattled condition of
democratic sentiment on the subject of re
gaining power?
Mr. Russell was an attractive and accom
plished young man. His personal popular
ity at home was very great and well de
served. It brought him large returns. He
was three times chosen governor of the
bay state by reason of it. Where other
dernocratic candidates had failed he suc
ceeded. He acquitteq himself well in office.
But it is no disrespect to the office or to his
memory to say that whatever his talents
may have been they were not severely tried
there. The machine of government in that
old commonwealth is so well constructed
it almost runs itself. The head engineer
need do little more than keep an eye on
things.
Now, nothing should be plainer than that
the democracy's present plight in the coun
try at large calls for a man of greater stat
ure than that. The party is not only
divided. but angrily divided, on all the lead
ing issues of the day. And one of those
issues-the line that should be followed with
respect to our new possessions-is both new
and very difficult. The situation, indeed.
with the party out of power and torn with
dissensions, is one to try the skill and pa
tience of a resourceful veteran, trained in
opposition and seasoned by adversity.
No, men of the type of the late Mr. Rus
sell have valuable uses and they play good
parts, but they should never be called to
the helm in the time of a great blow. A
stronger hand and head are necessary
then. The democracy is far from being
bankrupt in the way of leadership, and it
should call upon the right sort of men for
this emergency. It cannot reasonably hope
to regain power through the agency of any
trick, or by simply pointing to a candidate
against whom no charges are laid. The
talk of putting up some colorless man of
business, or some respectable judge with
out a political record, is unworthy of the
occasion. The country has rarely had 9o
much important work on hand; and for a
great party to offer f2r the suffrages of the
people a candidate for the highest office
whom they scarcely know would be to in
vite and deserve and meet defeat. The
play is Hamlet, not Little Lord Fauntleroy,
and a tragedian and great actor should be
cast for the title role.

The Board of Trade.
Last night's annual meeting of the Board
of Trade demonstrated that this organiza
tion is in ex llent shape for the winter's
campaign before Congress for the passage
of the necessary legislation in the District's
interest. The reports of the various com
mittees and of PresIderrt Smith and Secre -
tary Harries showed that last year was ex
ceptionally well filled with important aic
tion and that the Board was called upon
repeatedly for aid In forwarding import4nt
enterprises for the betterment af the Dis
trict. The coming session may not reqtuire
activity upon such a variety of questions,
but those which are now pending are of the
first importance. Some readjustments of
the taxation question will call for hard
work on the part of the citizens, working
either individually or in association, and
the unfinished steam railroad legislation
may require local pressure to prevent a fur
ther delay. The Board of Trade has s:cored
so heavily in the vast in Its strokes for the
District's material advancement that It 1s
gratifying now to find it is so well organ
ized and prepared for further endeavors.
The sugar trust, it is reported, has de
ctded to reduce the price of sugar to 4 cents
a pound in retaliation upon the beef trust
for some alleged infraction of pgreements.
The public will applaud all such maneuvers
and feel inclined to exclaim, with the fron
tiersman whose wife was being chased by
an intruder, "Go it, bear! G3o it, old wo
man"
When a Mormon sta-tesman comes, to
Congress he Is lucky if he succeeds in being
looked on as a man wit.h a past rather than
as a man with a polygamous present.
John Mitchell is a lucky man to be called
upon to deny presidential aspirations so
early in his career, even if they relate only
to the head of a labor organization.
Xfter it is all over Pietro Mascagni will
probably find that he has accumulated
enough material in Amnericatowrite half a
dozen stirring operas.
Mascagni is disappointed In this country.
He Is another victim of the European su
perstition that In America five-dollar bills
grow on bushes.

The Kaiser in England.
Whenever the German emperor vilsits
England a good many people begin to see
things. His present visit is bringing these
people out in a. swelling chorus of discov
ery. Important changes are predicted as
the result of the visit. But why should
they be expected? There are good every
day reasons for the kaiser'~ presen c under
the roof of hIs uncle. Th6'two ,ereigns
get along very wel and just now t

paws of death. lngand ald Germany have
many interests that eonaet, and the twe
peoples are not fond of each other. But
there will be no -war between them whiie
their destinies remain in the hands now
guidipg them. This may safely be assumed;
and so whether there are many or few
topics discussed between the kaiser and thd
king on this occasion, the outsde world
would appear to have small cause fox
worry. The map nowhere is likely to be rad
ically changed through any alliance, formal
or understood, between the two govern
ments.
The Minority Leader.
The speculation about the leadership of
the minority in the next House all playi
about southern men. Not a northern mar
is mentioned, although Mr. McClellan of
New York would fill the place with ability.
But as the south puts forward no aspirants
for the presidency or the vice presidency,
it is probably but fair that this congres
sional honor should go to her uncontested.
It is to be said, too, that the men whose
names are now canvassed in connectior
with it are very worthy and capable. Mr.
Richardson of Tennessee is conservative
and experienced. Mr. Williams of Missis
sippi is a good debater and a good parlia
mentarian. Mr. Underwood of Alabama if
alert and resourceful, while Mr. De Armoni
of Missouri Is criticised on but one score
His tongue is sharp, and he enjoys an en
gagement where such a weapon is effective
This office will be of more importance it
the next House than It has been in the
present one. The maneuvers in the Housi
on the eve of a presidential campaign cal:
for skill on both sides, and the minorit3
leader fully equal to his place frequenti
has some excellent opportunities to seer4
