works that all the colored employees be
discharged seems TO be an unreasonable
one. and the strike Of the white men on
that ground will not have public approval.
If there are some quarrelsome or bad men
among the colored employees they ought to
be singled out for discharge, though even
then the superintendent should be sure he
was not doing an injustice. There are quar-
relsome and bad white men as well as col
ored. But an indiscriminate demand for
the discharge Of all the colored men is
clearly unreasonable. If there is any ground
for the race feeling which is said to exist
in Haughville now il would be increased by
the wholesale discharge of men on &C
count of color, thus perhaps making va
grants of those who are now wage earners.
Men should be employed or discharged on
their individual merits, and not on account
Of color. IL white men and black men
can serve side by side peaceably in the po-
lice and fire departments, as they do, there
is no reason why the color line should be
drawn in factories.

do that. but it is a much less formidable
task than has been performed in other
islands. The assassination of President
Mckinley has been used, 1t is said, by the
leaders 10 convince the ignorant people
that his death by the hand of an assassin
means the downfall OF the government Of
the United States and the abandonment Of
is causing unrest throughout Luzon that
may result in local disturbances.
ForgetfuI of their declarations a year
ago. some Of The opposition are now dis
cussing the advisability of abandoning the
Philippines to save the loss of life and the
expense incident to control. In this respect
their talk recalls the objections made in
1864 to continuing the war to save the
Union. After the country has Endorsed the
policy of the late President. in what at
titude would the American people stand in
the eyes of the world If the government
hould r%elinquish its sovereignty over the
Philippines. withdraw its armies and leave
the thousands of people who have become
the friends of the United States TO the
mercy OF their foes? We would lose our
prestige among the nations, and our name
would be a term of reproach throughout
the civilized world. Our foes would in
suit us, and nations which are jealous of
our rising commercial Importance would
heap insults upon us to force US into war,
as some OF them even now show that they
would like to do because of the Monroe
doctrine. To sneak out of the Philippines
after we have gone so far, leaving the
islands to anarchy and to be seized by our
commercial foes would be to invite the
sneers and insults of all the nations, and
to sacrifice our self-respect and forfeit our
high position as a controlling power in the
world.
The future Of the Philippines. so far as
their relation to the United States is con-
cerned, is not settled. The foremost nation
in the worlds progressive march, we can
raise the Millions in those Islands TO some
thing like civilization. We can give them
just government, education, freedom, and
teach them self-government. Now that
we have begun the work and made con
siderable progress, we cannot abandon il
and thus confess that we have not the
stamina TO complete it.

NO TINE TO FALTER

A year ago the opponents of the election
of Mr.. Mckinley pushed the issue of the
future of the Philippines to the front. AS
often as these opponents delivered a speech
or wrote an editorial they declared that the
reelection OF President Mckinley would
be an Endorsement of his policy to retain
the Philippines and rule them. By an un-
precedented majority OF the popular vote
the lamented Mckinley was reelected and,
il his opponents were honest in raising the
issue, the country decided to retain our
sovereignty over the PARKWAY islands Al
that time the Philippines presented much
more unfavorable conditions than they do
at present, as most of the islands were
overrun by bands Of insurgents under a
their director. To hold the islands at that
time seemed to invite the sending of larger
armies TO them, with consequent loss of life
and heavy expense. Yet. under those un-
favorable conditions and the hopeless out
come. as presented by Mr.. Bryan and his
followers. the American people decided that
the Philippines should be held.
Since that time all but two or three lead
ers have either been captured or have sur
rendered. Comparative peace reigns in
Luzon. and the most reliable reports indi-
cate that the more intelligent natives ac-
cept the sovereignty of the United States
as the only source of security. The inhabit-
ants of the island of Negros asked for the
rule of the United States more than a year
ago. and its people are now living under a
government OF their own. upheld by Ameri-
can authority. In Samar it is different. It's
people nave never been under any sort of a
government. Spain never having been able
to establish its ~despotism in that island
our authorities did not undertake to exer-
else authority there as early as elsewhere
thus giving the insurgents a chance 10 take
possession OF the island and win the SYM
pathies OF the natives. The success of the
surprise Of a company Of the Ninth In.
fantry has given courage 10 the insurgents
so that more troops are required TO estab.
lish our supremacy. IL may take time tc

REWARDS FOR OFFICERS
NEARLY 300 DECORATIONS BE
SLOWED BY KIN EDWARD.
His Majesty Said tn Look Aged and
Palid-PreparatiOns for Welcom-
ing the Duke of York Party.

LONDON. Oct. 29.-King Edward to-day
personally conferred the insignia Of vari-
Gus orders on $50 TO 800 officers and others
recently decorated. The investiture. which
was held in St. James Palace, was attended
by all the state ceremonial for which the
King is such a stickler. While the route be-
tween ST. James Palace and Marlborough
House is only a few hundred yards long,
King Edward disappointed the crowds to-
day by driving from his residence TO the
palace and back in an entirely closed car
riage. The King looked aged and palid. An
incident which evoked some comment was
the presence of Sir Francis Lakin, the
Kings physician, at ST. James Palace
to-day. Sir Francis left the palace and
drove to his home, opposite MARLBOROUGH
House., just before his Majesty returned
there.

however, are determined that IL shall emu

THE INTERURBAN CONTRACT CUES

The gentlemen who have undertaken to
settle the interurban contract question
have a knotty problem on their hands and
several conflicting interests to harmonic.
The true solution of the problem will be
found in an honest effort to do strict JUS
tice TO every interest, keeping in mind that
as the whole is greater than a part so the
public is bigger han any corporation or
than all corporations combined. Next to
that it should be membere that while
the city should not interfere with the
vested rights or legitimate business of the
Indianapolis Street Railway, it should do
all in its power to encourage the establish
ment of i%nterurban lines, and as their first
object is to promote outside or interurban
traffic, they should not be required to ac-
cept onerOus terms in regard TO local city
traffic. 1t would be very unfair to inter-
urban lines to impose on them such terms
regarding city tickets or city passenger
fares as would seriously interfere with
their outside traffic. for which they are
primarily if not solely built. 1t must be
remembered that the interurban system is
in its infancy and onerous conditions i'm
posed now may prevent future extensions
OF great Importance to the city. Another
matter to be considered is the congestion of
Washington street. No addition should be
made to the obstruction of that street that
can possibly be avoided. Instead of adding
to the number OF cars that use it they
should be decreased IL possible. What
with street cars, private carriages drawn up
in front of stores, and other vehicles, the
busy squares of that street are even now
badly crowded much of the time, and a
little addition to present distractions
would make the street almost impossible.
This congestion might be relieved by the
Indianapolis company changing the routes
of some Of it's cars or laying new cross
lines, as it will have 10 do eventually, and
by the interurban companies establishing
their stations a little distance away from
Washington street without actually trav-
ersing it. This would also greatly lessen
city traffic on the interurban cars. Those
who have the matter in hand should re-
member that they are acting for a large
and growing city. and for the distant fu-
ture as we'll as the immediate present.

ADDRESS TO NEGROES.
North CaroIina's Governor Says They
Cannot Expect Social Equality.

RALEIGH, N. c., Oct. Ex-Governor Ay-
cock to-day opened the negro state fair in
an address in which he urged the negroes
to build up society among themselves,
founded on culture, intelligence and virtue.
In the course of the address he referred
to President Roosevelt dining Booker T..
Washington and saying to the negroes that
their best friends lived in the South. He
told them they did not need recognition
by the President, as it would avail nothing
in the South. He said: The law which
separates you from the white people in
the State socially has been and always
will be ineXorable and it need not concern
you or me whether the law is violated
elsewhere, il never will be violated in the
South. It's violation would be to your de-
struction as well as to the injury of the
whites" He pledged the best efforts of
the whites to aid the negro, but told them
that social equality was an idle dream.
In reply DR.. G. H.. King, a prominent ne
gro minister of the Methodist Church, said
that the negroes did not want social equal
ity; that neither he nor his people wanted
to sit down to the dinner table of the whites
and that they were not in sympathy with
any such idea.

Wants No Industry Sacrificed Through
Commercial Treaties.

BOSTON, Oct. 29.-Chosen to voice the
sentiment of the Home Market Club TO
hasten a moro general reciprocity of trade,
and at the same time to protect the home
market, a committee has reported and the
executive committee has authorized the
publication of the following statement:
Among the most gratifying conditions
of the time, which is attended with so
much prosperity at home, is the fact that
we have already vastly extended our trade
abroad and have conquered so large a place
in the markets of the world. The time is
now suspicious for continuing and COM
pIeting this conquest 1t must go on with
out delay and must be thorough and
permanent. To that end every step must
be wise, successful, unretreating, and must
command and retain the confidence and APP
probation of the American people, We
must injure no existing American industry
and throw no large body of workmen out
of employment.
respectfully request Congress, there
fore, to collect without delay from every
available source full and exact Informal
tion as TO the effect of all roposed treaties
on industries now successfully established.
so that none may be sacrificed, and i'm that
way whatever may be accomplished shall
be both beneficial and enduring"
