The Three Friends Not . Pirate.

It IL said at the Department Of Justice
that 1t erroneous to suppose that the al
legged flibuster, Three Friends, In to b
prosecuted on the charge Of piracy. The
accepted legal meaning Of q pirate is .
highway robber ON the seas and an enemy
of all mankind. Even II IL should be proved
that the Three Friends had nred upon
Spanish vessel that In itself would not
warrant her prosecution for piracy, 40
cording to the ofi1cers OF the Department
OF Justice. 1t would, therefore, appear
that the proceedings against this vessel

Mr.. VIM. Coalson, the only
colored man who attended the
Inauguration at Washington, D.
G., last week from our city arrived
home with the Governors party
Monday morning, feeling much
pleased with his trip, having seen
some of Americas natural scenery
in the Cumberland Mountains;
also going through some long tun-
nels, and also the famous Rock
City oil wells, which was awe
inspiring. He left here Monday
night at 9:3o, arriving in chicago
Tuesday morning at S::20, taking
the chesapeak and Ohio Ry. in a
special car, going through India>
napolis, Lexington and cincin-
natti, by night, however. At the
latter place he saw where the
water had been in the depot from
the recent heavy floods going
through Virginia in day time
and seeing the beautiful scenery,
the bubbling from the mountain
streams and sparkling rocks, and
also the old-time log cabins on the
plantations where once the slave
lived and toiled-the old chimney
and white.washed cabins was very
teresting to him. Mr.. g. formed
the acquaintance Of two intelligent
young men, Mr.. Skinner, who
had charge Of the car, and Elwood
Knox, business manager of the
Freeman. He also attended =
swell colored ball through the
kindness of Edward E. Cooper Of
American Citizen. He was per-
mitted to enter and sitin the gallery
and watch seven.hundred of high
Washingtonians waltz. He says
some Of the colored people are
doing extra well, yet the colorsd
prejudice is stronger there than
here, especially as to public ac-
commodations.

Going from Iowa to Illinois at the request
Of the Republican State Central Committee

into the hearts Of the people where ever he

His effective work in Illinois is told in
the following letter iron, the Chairman Of
the Executive committee of>the Republi-
can State Central Committee of Illinois:
REPUBLICAN STATE CENT. COMMITTEE, }
r. 81 Great Northern Hotel, }
s,.g--. Chicago, Nov. 9th. '96. }
Hon. JOHN l.. WALLER, Topeka, Kansas {:
Ny Dear Sir-The Republican State
Central Committee Of Illinois desire to
acknowledge its deep obligation to you
for yonr able speeches made in our State
during the late campaign. We appreci-
atesliighly yonr services. and are profound
.ly grateful to you for the same.
i am. sir, very respectfully.
(Signed) CIIAs. s. RANNELLs.
Chairman Ex. Com.
Before the end Of the campaign Mr..
Waller was called home by the Republi-
can State Central Committee of Kansas,
Where he addressed large meetings at
Junction City, Salina, Lawrence, Topeka,
Horton, Kansas City. Kansas, and Kansas
City. Mo. As we stated in the beginning
Of this article, no colored man in the West
is more deserving at. the hands Of the
republican party than Mr.. Waller. His
work speaks for itself. and while not AFRO
eating anything 10 himself, never having
poised as a leader in any particular sense.
Mr.. Waller Is man who has clearly de-
monstrated to every unprecedented mind
that he is the peer Of any of the leading
colored men Of the country Of today.
The colored people Of the West realize and
appreciate Mr.. Waler's worth, and will
be pleased to know that lie has placed Oh
file at Washington, an application for the
position Of Recorder of Deeds, which is
backed by 4 large number Of the leading
white and colored republicans Of the West,
and even from several of the Southern
States. We have no idea whatever that
any candidate West Of the Alleghanies
will be able to present an application
backed nv n moro y0l,1n,inOus array Of
republican endorsements than Mr.. Waller.
Unless some unknown change is
brought about we predict the ap-
pointment Of Mr.. Waller as the next
Recorder of Deeds TO succeed Hon. e. II.
J. Taylor. We shall therefore watch the
contest with no little interest, while at the
same time urging the whole Iowa delega-s
ton in Congress to use every honorable
means to secure Mr.. Walters appoint

THE NEW CABINE'7,

In another part CT the BYsrAND-
ER you will see the portraits OF
President .McKinley's official ad-
visers. They are all strong men
men Of years Of business and pub
lie experience. They are men
that have made a success in this
life, an honorable record, and
christian gentlemen. Hon. John
Sherman, who is % we'll known
in public and political life for more
than forty years; 3 leader in the
United Strtes Senate for twenty
years; is too we'll known for our
comment. The next and second
important place in the cabinet is
the Treasury portfolio. Mr.. ly-
man Judson Gage, who is called by
the Chicagoans ''the ideal citizen" !"
He was unknown to the public
and political world, but well
known in the commercial and
business world. He was born in
the Empire state and raised on a
farm. When a young man IN
1916, taking Greeley's advice, he
came west to Chicago, and worked
as restaurant boy. He soon
entered the bank, his choice occu-
patton, and has labored so long,
until now he is thu most success
ful bankers in the west, president
Of the largest bank, in the west,
also president of the Bankers As
sociation, and was president of the
Worlds fair in Chicago. He
could have been Mayor Of ohicego
had he said yes. His banks for.
eign business amounts to about
$50, 100000 per year, as all of
their biographies is given on
another page Of this issue.
We only comment on one more,
that is 1owa's representative, Prof.
James Wilson, of the Iowa Agri.
cultural college. Mr.. Wilson
is practical agriculturist, having
made that a special study. He is
a ripe scholar, good public
speaker and we'll known in Repub'
lican circles. He is a valuable ad
dition to that department of the
cabinet and all Iowa feel proud Of
