on the other side had any effect in dis
turbing it in the minds of the great mass
OF the people.
1he charge, however, has now been
transferred from politics to law and from
the stump to the courts. In the elevator
controversy now being tried before Judge
Tuley in Chicago, one of the attorneys
has advanced the proposition that the big
elevator men of that city were responsible
lor the depression of the wheat market
In the last few years, and he claims to have
evidence to prove the charge.
1he case will be watched with consider
able interest to see what evidence is forth
coming on this point. On the face it
hardly seems possible that any com bina-
ton OF men could be powerful enough to
AFFECT the price of an article of which the
output is so large as that of wheat. New
ertheless, when reputable attorney comes
into court with claim that he can prove
certain state of things to be true, the
lncredulity of fair-minded men must give
way to determination to review the case
on It's merits and weigh the evidence with
impartial justice.
Ii the attorney comes anywhere near
proving his charges, the result will have
much to do with the determination OF bills
before Congress prohibiting the specula-
ton in what are called futures of staple
products. We may be sure. therefore,
that the question Will receive close atten-
top from large number OF interested
persons, and it seems likely that this
much-disputed point will soon be cleared
up by the formation of definite and we'll

THE MINERS BATTLE.

The statement published in THE CALL
yesterday of ]. f. Halloran, general man.
ager of the Mining and Scientific Press of
this City, was an able and lucid presenta-
ton of the claims of the mining industry
upon the National Government and its
risht to representative in the Cabinet
The statement has more than transitory
value and should be reproduced by the
press throughout the mining States.
Mr.. Halloran points out that at the
present time there is not to be found in
Washington even so much as a response
bic clerk to represent the mining industry,
and as consequence it is almost impossi-
bic to get from the Government a reliable
Interpretation of the mining laws. The
Secretary of the Interior will construe a
disputed point one way and the Land
Commissioner will construe it another.
The United States Government has
done less for mining than for any other
great industry, and, as Mr.. Halloran
points out, we are in this respect behind
otter civilized nations. In Great Britain.
France, Germany and Russia there are
Government departments of mines and
ministers OF mining whose business it is
to look out for the industry and promote
its advancement. Our Government could
we'll afford to follow that example, for the
United States owes more to mines and
can expect more from them than any
other nation on earth.
Like every one else who has given the
subject serious consideration, Mr. Hal
loran sees that the appointment of q Sec
retary Of Mines is not to be easily OBJ.
tained. Nevertheless, as he says, the
horizon of the future widens. The deyel.
opment of the United States requires an
increasing governmental supervision. The
Cabinet in the end must be enlarged, and
it is none too early to enlarge it now for
the promotion of mining.

Rad BLACK GOVERNORS,
A Curious Piece of Connecticut History

Known to Few People.
book little known even to collectors
of Anne ericana is a volume entitled "Hart.
ford in the Olden Time; Its First Thirty
Years." by Scaeva, which was edited by
w. M. B. Hartley and published at Hart
ford in 1858. There is a chapter in this
book entitled "The Black Governors OF
Connecticut" the very title of which will
excite the surprise of most intelligent
people, even in Connecticut, who have
never heard of any black Governors in
the Nutmeg State-except the Governors
of an opposite political faith, who were, of
course, politically black. The title, how
ever. is explained and justified by little
explanation.
Before the revolution and down to
period as late as 1920, it was the custom
Tor the negroes living in the State to hold
an election on the Saturday succeeding
the regular election day, choosing one of
their number as Governor. Som etimes,
however. no election was held, the retir-
ing Governor assigning his office to
another. The man chosen in either case
was usually "of imposing presence,
strength, frmness and volubility, quick
to decide. ready to command ana quick to
fog" He appointed a staff of military
and judicial officers who executed his
orders in all matters pertaining to colored
people, especially questions pertaining to
morals, manners and cerem onies.
The fact that he had no legal status in
the province or State did not at all trouble
him or his subjects, and he appears to
have exercised a very real power, nearly
always on the side of morality and justice.
The Justices of the Peace appointed by
these black Governors were, as a rule, ex-
tremely severe in Furnishing people of
their own color who transgressed the law.
So generally was this recognized by the
whites in colonial times that when a slave
committed some offense it was the custom
to turn him over to the black Justice for
punishment. Such cuprit always Jared
much worse than if he had been tried by
the regular courts.
Among the more notable colored men
who held the office of Governor were
Quaw, negro belonging to Colonel George
WHY'S; Peleg Mott, who belonged TO Col
onel jeremiah Wadsworth; Boston, be-
longing to Mr.. Nichols; John Anderson
and Cuff, who held the office for ten years.
After the abolition of slavery in Connecti-
cut the custom began to pass into disuse,
and at the present time even many intelli.
gent negroes of the State know nothing of

LOTTERIES REVIVING.

The crusade waged against lotteries in
this City diminished the evil but did not
crush it. For a time the dealers in that
unlawful traffic were frightened into
dropping it or forced to carry it on with
a degree of caution which rendered it
comparatively harmless. The fright,
however, seems to have passed away to
some extent, and the takers are becoming
bold again.
So long as newspapers of general circu-
lation publish the advertisements of these
swindling schemes and announce the
drawing of alleged prizes it will not be
possible to eradicate the evil altogether;
but if the efforts of the police be backed
up by resolute public opinion and well
aided by the better class of citizens it can
be reduced to conditions far less harmful
than 1T is now.
The CALL appeals to all law-abiding
citizens TO give an active aid TO the police
in the task of suppressing the swindlers.
These takers rob the people by their
fraudulent schemes of large sums of
money every year. The gold-brick swim
die is as nothing to the lottery swindle in
the extent of It's deception and the num-
Der of its victims. 1t has been shown by
the police over and over again that most
of the so-called lottery com panies whose
tickets are sold here have no drawings at
all, and worse still, many of the so-called
tickets are forgeries. This is reducing the
practice of getting money under false pre-
lenses TO the extreme limit and a man
would derive more profit from throwing
his money into the sea than from buying
lottery tickets with il.
An evil so insidious as that of the lot
terry sharpers cannot be effectually COPIED
with by the police alone. The officers
require the aid of citizens in getting evil
dence to convict offenders, and that aid
should be cordially given. A further
effort, moreover, should be made to pre-
vent the publication of lottery advertising
in the newspapers. II that reform could
he effected the task of suppres sing the
evil altogether would be made much
easier, since the enticements of the sharp
ers would no longer be spread before the
public and in the home, and there would
be too little profit in the trade for them to
venture upon the risk of detection and
punishment.
