HAS THE NEGRO A RIGHT TO

The above question was propounded
10 the editor by a representative citi-
xen Of this city lew days ago in an
seriousness. We think there is no doubt
about the Affirmative side OF the propo.
snioB. II - automatic that a man has
. right 10 do anything that does not
infringe upon the rights oi Others The
possession OF right ~ the abstract.
however. - no argument in favor OF its
exercise. A man has a right 20 refuse
20 shave his lace or cut his hair or TO
pare his finger nails. but the exercise
OF that tight might be the height oi
folly. So IN the matter OF party aiilia-

unquettluned right TO support the Dem

ward with Dread TO the
Journey.

Muzaffer.ed-Din's Journey 20 the
countries of western Europe is an event
OF great moment TO the poor creatures
along the line of his progress. The Nor
Oar, an unimpeachable authority on
Persian affairs, describes the manner
Of his majtsty's journey from Teheran
60 Djulfa, on the Russian frontier. Ac-
cording to this newspaper. the
wretched peasantry may well look for
ward with terror TO the appearance Of
the king of kings and his huge convoy.
Says the Nor-Dar: ''In every village
and hamlet of the provinces through
which Muzaffer.sd-Din will shortly
pass on his journey to the west there
Is just now activity in the collection of
great stores of provisions of all kinds

Such acquisitions are imposed upon
the unfortunate people in virtue Of a
legally sanctioned and ancient Persian
custom, according TO which the shah,
whenever he visits the provinces. makes
the satraps responsible for everything
he and his retinue require, and the
last penny at the cost of the peasantry.
Hence, the imposing progress Of the
Persian monarch through his own
dominions, accompanied by great
bodies OF infantry aud cavalry and an
enormous personal encourage. costs

padiShah, aud. secondly, for the grind

satrapy at an imperial auction. Thus
the governors Of Kaxvik, Chamsa and
Asrrbaishan were recently commanded
by the shah to provide all that was
required for the fitting reception Of
himself and the hest Of his convoy on
his passage 20 Djulfa. That order was
sufficient TO sink the peasantry of
those provinces into the lowest dspths
OF tribulation. knowing that il will
take them years TO recover by thrift
and industry the substance they must
now lavish upon the hungry horde Of
the shah's convoy.
Crowds of these distracted peas

their voices. anxionsly assailed the
correspondent II the Nor-Dar with the
question whether the shah would-re-
turn by the same route or would he so

THE PENSION ROLL.
Nearly 100, 900 Certificates Were Is
sued During the Last
Fiscal Year.
Democratic Administration Reduced
the Amount Paid 10 Old soldiers
by Nearly SI7.o0O,OOO In
One Year.

No ruling of the pension bureau has
EVER evoked as much criticism and con-
domination among pensioners and 9TH
ers Interested in the work Of the bu-
reau as orders 225 and 229. issued dur
ing the administration Of President
Cleveland.
Order 225 directed that all cases al
lowed under section z OF the act Of
june q. 1890. be drawn from the adj
Iniited files as rapidly as practicable.
and that they be examined for the pEr-
pose of determining whether the al
lowanreE were in accordance with law.
Under the operations of this order the
names Of many thousands Of pension
ers we're dropped from the rolls and a
great many pensioners had their pen
sions reduced.
The revision OF claims referred 20 has
not been done at ell during the admin
istrHtion OF Commissioner Evans. On
the contrary. many of those who have
been dropped under the former adj
ministratioBs have been restored 10 the
rolls and = large number Of those who
were reduced have had their pensions
increased.
Those who are familiar with the
workings Of order 229 will readily re-
call the difficulties produced in the
preparation Of testimony and the many
vexatious delays caused thereby. One

The number OF unsettled claims on
file In the pension bureau june 20, 1897.
was $4,000; the number on file June
30. 1899, was 1890. With the advent
Of this administration many thousands

year OF 1899 was I64.ssi, while for the
fiscal year ended June 20, 1898, the mum.

Notwithstanding this avalanche OF
claims, which was added 20 the hale
million claims pending when Commits.
tioner Evans assumed charge OF the bu-
reau, the work OF settling claims has
been prosecuted with such diligence
that at the end of the fiscal year of
1879 only A7T,R39 unsettled claims re.
manned in the pending files Of the hu.
reau, and only iT2. 1917 Of these are origi
nal claims, the balance being claims for
increase or additional allowance.
In fact the work Of the bureau - now

can be settled as fast as they are com.
pleted by the claimants by furnishing
the necessary evidence.
This result has been accomplished
notwithstanding the fact that about
