Sketch of Mr.. Slater's Life.

The Tribune correspondent found Mr..
Slater a very modest and retiring nan, whose
chief anxiety was that his name should not
be paraded before the public. "If it's neces-
sary to mention me at all - he said,"I hope
nothing more will be said than that I've
been successful business man,
From other sources something further In
regard to Mr.. Slater and his career was
learned. John Slater, the father of John F.
Slater, came to this country in 1903. Samuel
Slater, his uncle, came here in 1889. Both
were practical cotton spinners, and, with the
firm of Almy & Brown, of Providence, were
the first to introduce cotton spinning in
America. In 1906, through their influence
and aid the village of Statewide was started
John Slater lived there until his death,
which occurred in 1843. His brother Samuel
founded the town of Webster, Mass, large
manufacturing place. Samuel Slater also
had large share in building up the Amos
keag Mills Company of Manchester, N. H
John F. Slater's father became interested in
the Jewett City Mills in 1843. In 1840 he
came to Norwich, but still retained his in
terest in the Jewett City Mills. On the death
of his father in 1S43 John F. Slater and his
brother William s. inherited considerable
fortunes, and went into partnership, selling
the mill at Hopeville Conn.,, and buying OIL
the heirs of Samuel Slater in Slaterville. In
1872 they divided the property, and William
S. took Statewide and John F. took the
Jewett City property. In 1859 Mr.. Slater
in connection with some Providence capital
lists, started the Ponemah Mills, which an
among the largest of their kind in the coun
try. Mr. Slater is still connected with al
these mills and is interested In many rail
roads and other institutions, in many o
which he occupies important positions. HI
has one son, William A. who was recently
graduated at Harvard College.
In personal appearance Mr.. Slater is tall
well-built man, though of rather slender fg
ure, carrying himself erectly, with squar'
shoulders and of somewha at stately bearing
A smooth face, which does not show tn
burrows Of time, although Mr.. Slater says h
is an old man, is set off by short gray sid
whiskers brushed out from his face. Ii
manner he is affable and kindly. Christia,
Recorder.

Especial to The Chicago Tribune. ]


When Benjamin H. Brewster was ap-
pointed Attorney General of the United
States the people had no idea what an in
sidious enemy of the Democratic party he
was. One of the first acts of his administra- a.
ton was to employ Saunders and Ker, two
Democratic lawyers of Philadelphia, as
special United States Attorneys He sent
Saunders down to Charleston to help the
District Attorney there in the prosecution
of the persons who had been indicted for
ballot-box stuffing and other violations of the
election laws. Saunders had not been in
Charleston fortnight before he professed
his utter disgust at Democratic practices as
illustrated by the proceedings of the South
Carolina Bourbons. Ker was sent down a
week or ten days ago to assist in the prosecu-
tions, and he passed through Washington
last night on his way home to Philadelphia.
He said that he was not obliged to remain
long in Charleston before he became
THOROUGHLY INDIGNANT WITH THE METHODS
used by the Democratic politicians of that
State. The hotel where he stopped was
bombarded with stones last Wednesday
night by gang of desperadoes known as
the Bulldog Gang" and all the windows
in the lower part of the building were
broken. He was openly insulted in the
streets because, although Democrat, he APP
peared in behalf of the Government to pros
ecute election frauds. The Democrats of
South Carolina don't think any Democrat
respectable or decent who is willing to assist
in prosecuting good, honest Democrats who
have done nothing except to stuff ball t
boxes or commit other frauds for the benefit
of their party. Ker says that the Demo-
cratic party in the North will remain in the
minority until the Southern Democrats

Professor Greener's declaration of oppo-
sition to the coming of the Chinese into this
country reads very curiously in connection
with the declaration which Immediately
followed in his conversation, vigorously
contending for the equality of the negro
race with the white. 1t is very significant
fact in this whole anti Chinese agitation
that the strongest feeling is manifested by
persons who are not Anerican-born, who
seem anxious to confne the privileges and
opportunities of American citizenship to
themselves"
We clip the above from The Christian
Union. Nothing gives US more regret.
Professor Greener, as we view him, can in
no way SO soon and so easily blast the bright
future that seems to op before him,
as by linking his destiny with those
who demand the exclusion of the Chinese.
He may say as he did in Sullivan street.
New York, that he opposes them o. he would
oppose the wholesale influx of any harba-
rians, but the fact that this whole movement
has its only strength in race prejudice will
prove his mortal hurt. Balaam, found in
the company Of the Lords enemies, was slain
with them. Strange that one usually so
clear-headed does not see that neither the
history nor the present status of the colored
people of this country warrant them insiding
with oppression of any kind. Christian
