Senator Ingalls, has bscn delivered OF
his great speech In opposition TO the
colonization In equatorial countries Of
the coloresi people and Is supposed to bc
doing we'll. but the race question ts as
FAR from solution ~ ever. Senator
Butler proposed To encourage the emi.

matchlcss clcqucnce pleads that they
MOULD remain In the South and that MI
expe,iient, yet untried, justice to the
colored people, will solve the race prob.
lem. II might here he answered. that
the expeiient WAS tried from 1858 10
1916 and that II proved most disastrous
70 all. Tho negroes had full sway At
the ballot box. They elected all the
officials In the greater portion OF the
South, and the result WAS = government
which, for corruption, rapine, robbery,
anarchy aud infamy, the world has
never equaled.
In that country, 1t Is q question Of
who shall rule, the negro or the white
man, and that Is all there Is " the ques.
ton.
According to the spirit aud intent Of
our institutions, the majority should
rule, but the majority in several Of the
Southern States Is colored. The white
people cannot permit that majority to
rule again. What is tho rsmedyf No
one. not even senator Ingalls, has, or
can suggest o remedy short Of a sepera.

GONE MAD ON RELIGION.


Extraordinary Influence of a Woman Who
the Devil"
Mrs Maria b. Wordsworth, the evan
gelist, has been conducting revival in
st. Louis in big tent capable of
sheltering nine thousand people. The
meetings have assumed highly sensa-
tional character. During the past week
it has been a nightly occurrence
to see from fifty to $50 men,
women and children stretched
on the ground, or on tho
big platform, writhng in religious
frenzy, or stupefed from exhaustion,
while other hundreds danced shouted,
sang and swung their arms about. DR..
Wellington Adams and DR.. Theodore
Diller, authorities on insanity and
neurology, after an investigation. un-
hestatingly pronounced Mrs. Wood
worth to be an insane woman of great
hypnotic power. The frances into which
she throws her victims are they say,
simply hypnosis. They declare she is
doing great harm to thousands, that she
is creating evils for which there can be
no cure, and that the State should inter-
fere and lock the woman up Mrs.
Woodworth claims to have convcrsed
with God, Christ and the Trinity and tho
devil many times. Over fifteen thou
sand people were at the river front Mon
day to witness the baptizing by her
of more than one hundred persons. The
scenes were of the most sensational
character.

THE GERMAN FLAG
Creates Disturbances in the Pitts
burgh Labor Day Parade.
Torn From the Bakers Ranks by Mem
bers of the Junior Order of Amer
lean WOrkmen.

There was but one incident to mar the
celebration of Labor Day in Pittsburgh
A riot occurred in Allegheny over the
presence in the parade of a German flag
carried by the Bakers Union. At North
avenue an aid was prevailed upon by
some members of the Junior O. U. A. M.
to order the obnoxious flag hauled down.
The bearer refused and raised the BAN
ner higher and unfurled it to the winds.
There were large number OF
Junior Order men around and
they were particularly incensed. They
called back the aid and insisted that
the German flag be removed. The Of
ficer thus urged rode into the ranks and
took hold Of the banner. He tried to
.s.cs II AVA from, the sturdy man Who
carried 1t. The men in the ranks quick
ly surrounded the aid and essayed to
beat him off. Policeman Diebold, of
the Allegheny force, was incensed
at the indignity offered the flag Of
his fatherland and dashing into the
thick of the fight, beat the horse and
rider with his mace. Canes were -four
ished and brought down upon the heads
of any one who was in striking distance.
Fists were used with good effect as
shown by the number of black eyes no.
ticed when the trouble was at an end.
Many of the participants in it
had their clothes torn, and Police
man Diebold was roughly handled. De-
spite the efforts of the bakers and the
policemen, the flag came down. The OPP
ponents of it did not mind kicks and
cuffs. They just pushed forward and
something had to give way, The part
the Jun ior order men secured had the
banner on it. In about one minute all
semblance to country's emblem was
gone. The silk was torn to shreds, then
the angry men trampled it under foot
and the parade proceeded.

A Perilous Voyage.

The Dominion Line steamer Van.
couver, Captain Lindall, from Liver
pool, arrived at Quebec, September T.,
after rough passage. She was buffet
ed about by waves for three days during
which terrific gale lasted. She weath-
cred the storm all right, but it had no
sooner moderated than the vessel was
enveloped in thick fog and surrounded
by icebergs, which are numerous in the
straits. She was running very slowly,
when she struck an iceberg about mile
in width, but, fortunately, owing to
careful handling, escaped serious dam
age. The steamer carried six hundred
passengers.

CLiNCHlNG THE FACTS.

Iroof Brought From south America to
show That Our Manufacturers Sell More
Cheaply There Than at Home-How Sem
ator Vest Put a High Protectionist Col
league "In Hole"
The facts about the special discounts
made to foreigners by our manufacture
ers were first made public on an ex-
tended scale in the pamphlet OF the
New York Reform Club. This pamphlet
was extensively quoted in the debate
on the Mckinley bill in the House of
Representatives, and Mr.. Smyser, a
protectionist representative from Ohio,
denied that foreigners are favored by
our manufacturers at the expense of the
'home market"
1t was felt by the protectionists that
the facts set forth in that pamphlet
were of so damaging a character to the
cause of high protection that they must
be fatty denied. This was done in
Congress and in the protectionist
organs. The American Economist
the organ of the American Pro-
tectlonist Tariff League, pooh
poohed the whole matter as
mares nest" and got denial from
two or three sources, only one of which
was named, and then boldly claimed
on the strength of these denials that
American manufactured goods are
not sold to foreigners more cheaply
than at home. A party organ usual
ly sees things crooked; but it is a
case of stone-blindness when the Econo-
mist makes broad denial like this for
all American manufacturers, and sup
ports that denial with the word Of only
two or three men, mentioning only one
firm by name, That kind of talk will
not begin to ''go down.
The latest chapter in this matter is
even more interesting than the first,
When Mr.. Lindquist the tariff expert
of the Reform Club, was at work collect
ing the facts for the pamphlet in ques-
ton, he tried his best to ge. o copy of
the foreign edition of the American
Mail and Export Journal, as he had rea-
son to believe that the foreign rates on
American goods, as quoted in that jour-
nal were even lower than the export
rates he had collected here. The ra tes
as given in the pamphlet were lin every
case obtained from the manufacturers
| Themselves" .s.. .-.,.
1t was, however, particularly desired
by Mr.. Llndquist to make comparison
between these rates and those printed
in the foreign edition of the American
Mail and Expert Journal, before pub.
fishing the pamphlet; but it was found
imposs Bile to obtain copyin this coun-
try, although the paper is printed in
New York City within few minutes

1t is thus seen that while high pro-
tectionist politicians are prating abou
"the insignificance of the foreign mari
ket as compared with the home mar
ket" our protected manufacturers are
making special efforts to get into the
foreign market even to the point o.
offering their wares for sale there al
greatly reduced rates.
This copy of the Mail and Expor
Journal has had an interesting histor,'
since its arrival in this country. Afteis
some of the wood-cuts in it had beer
photographed for use in several OF thu.
leading papers in the country it waI
turned over to Senator Vest, OF Mis-
souri,, for use when the proper occasion
should come.
That occasion came. In his speeclI
in the Senate debate on the Tariff bill
Mr.. Vest paid special attention to th,|
attempt of the trainers of the bill I'd
throw dust in the eyes of the farmers
and he scored point by showing tina
American protected manufacturers wer,|
now selling every kind of agricultural
implement in South America at pricel
from 20 to 70 per cent. less than the,
demanded from American farmers
He made this bold statement withoul
at first giving any proof for it, which
was evidently trap set by the 81.
Senator to catch some unwary protec
zionist Vest had calculated Will
shrewd foresight; and when Senate
Aldrich, of Rhode Island, got up ane
denied his statement the Missouri Sen.
ator drew forth the papers obtained from
Beunos Ayres and from this country ii
which the same implements were ad
vertised by the same firm at low pric.
in the foreign country and high price
here. At this the Rhode Island Senate
could only sink back into his sea
crushed by the willy Vest. 1t is to b
hoped that Aldrich, who is helping t..
engineer the high tariff bill through tn,
Senate, was forced by that little occur
renee to indulge in some fruitful refec
tions on the beauties of protection.

THE SAN FRANCISCO.
Successful Trial Trip of the New
War Vessel.
she Does Extraordinary Work In Going
Through Maneuvers.

The U. S. cruiser San Francisco
which had a successful trial trip in San
ia Barbara channel Wednesday, return
ed to San Francisco Friday, having
made trip up the coast at speed rang
ing from thirteen to fifteen knots. She
was given an enthusiastic Welcome as
she passed up the bay to her anchorage,
and her fog siren was blow almost con-
stantly in response to salutes from the
steam whistles. During the trip up the
coast the new cruiser was given num-
Der OF turnings, reversing and steering
tests, and naval officers aboard pro-
nounced her manuvering qualities won
derful. These tests we're all made
while she was running at rate Of
thirteen and one-half knots. One engine
was suddenly reversed and. the = i'm
thrown hard over In six mins tes Gid.
two seconds the cruiser turned a
complete circle, the diameter OF
which was less than her own length.
She also turned complete circle
without reversing one engine in five
minutes and thirty-two seconds. While
going ahead at full speed both engines
were suddenly reversed and in forty
two seconds the vessel was moving
backwards, having changed her direc-
ton within her own length. She was
also given an eight-hour trial with but
one boiler in use under forced draupht.
the other three boilers not being used.
During this trial she averaged
thirteen or fourteen knots and
consumed approximating between
eight and nine tons of
coal per hour. The actual speed made
by the San Francisco on her trial trip in
Santa Barbara channel Wednesday morn
ing has not yet been determined, and
it will probably not be known definitely
until after the board appointed to con-
duct the trial has submitted its final re-
port. Calculations have not been COM
pleted yet and considerable work is
necessary to determine the minntest
detail. 1t is definitely set.
tied, however, that her maximum
speed was 006 knots, and that this
rate was maintained during the last ten
knots of the run. Commodore Irwin,
the president of the Trial Board, on his
arrival at San Francisco Friday morn
ing, received dispatch from Secretary
Tracy, stating that the San Francisco
had "broken the record" The San
Francisco will remain at the Union Iron
Works about twenty-five days more be.
fore she will be turned over to the Coy.
ernment and sent to Mare Island Navy
yard.
