south the proposition that white man
one that not only needs no argument.
but actually calls for the immediate
blood of the man who opposes it.
It is true that man should not be
denied equal privileges before the law
because he hapens to be black. He
should be free man, entitled to the
fruits of his labor. equal to all others
in the matter of business contracts and
all laws devised by the people of the
country for the promotion of its Sc
curity, welfare and happiness. But If
Il law that requires a man to have suf-
ficient intelligence to know what he is
doing before the right of suffrage is eN-
tended to him should fall most heavily
injustice has been done. Furthermore
when people is face to face with a
condition in which the white race of a
considerable portion of its territory
absolutely refuses to be ruled by the
black, ii is an act of political wisdom
for q leader such as a president to
recognize the prejudices of the higher
race and in his political dealings avoid
unnecessary insults to the intelligent
White people of the south.
AS an abstract proposition the slight
est discrimination against the black
race because it is black can not be ex-
cused, but as u practical one there are
many existing conditions that make 1t
much better for the public service,
much better for the public peace In
southern states and much better for the
black race itself If race prejudices are
not iniiamed and excited by the ap-
pointment of negroes to petty offices.
II the appointment of a negro as post
master in Georgia town is going to
cause riots, race wars and the positive
refusal of the white population to re-
ceive its mail from black hands, 1t is
an act of political wisdom for presi-
dent to discontinue the appointment OF
black postmasters in such localities.
no matter how inexcusable and incon-
sistent may be the prejudices of the
white people. The Inauguration of the
new policy should greatly further the
peace and security of the southern
states; it will do more to silence the
bitter race wars than anything that has
happened in the south for generation.
The descendants of the old time abo-
litionist will probably cry out in horror
hut conservative men will view 1T all
as fol, the best.

PASSING OF 1He soLIp SOUTH.

Upon several occasions the T.-R. has
called attention to the political move
ments in the southern states and ven
tured the prediction that the passing of
the solid south was near at hand. The
white people of the southern states are
people OF intelligence as well as those
of any other locality. Under ordinary
circumstances they would be a people
of varying views upon political prob
lens and divide in their party allegiance
In much the same proportions as do the
intelligent people Of any other group OF
states. That they have not done so for
the past fifty years has besn due almost
entirely to their race problem. Ever
since the civil war the vote of the solid
south" recorded and counted for the
democratic party and its PRINCIPLES. has
in reality been vote for white supreln-
acy, protest against negro DONNA
ton and the party that should givs 1t
any encouragement. With the advent of
suffrage qualifications adopted in many
of the southern states the fear of negro
rule has been eliminated and as soon
as the new conditions become thorough
" established the intelligence of the
south is going to divide upon questions
Of public policy. The political party
alignment being determined on these
grounds will result In large republican
gains in the southern states.
Recognizing the conditions as they eX-
let in the south President Roosevelt has
inaugurated policy that will send the
new movement forward by leaps and
bounds. He has simply decided that to
appoint negroes to office in the south
does the negro race no good and hurls
insult upon the white people. Where
two races that refuse to assimilate and
become one occupy the same ground one
or the other must be supreme in social
standing and In the southern states the
whites with the advantage of greater
Intelligence and wealth have demon
strated that their color must rule
whether by fair means or foul. To the
theorist or man OF northern education
this view seems pcrversion of Ameii-
can principles, but to southern MAN

WATCHING RAILWAY EMPLOYEES.

An employe of railway entering st.
Paul was discharged recently on less
than twelve hours notice after nine
years service. No reasons were given
by the company, except the usual for
the good of the service" and none was
requested Both sides understood that
the action probably saved the company
several thousand dollars. The Pioneer
Press gives a clue to the reason in the
subjoined statement:
Back of the routine disposal of the
case there was an interesting series OF
circumstances of the kind that enable
railway corporations to prevent pecula-
tons, falsifications and entertainments.
The discharged employe had been under
as strict surveillance for weeks as the
French government ever enforced. The
net result showed that he was about to
enter kind of life altogether unsuited
to his income and that mis- increasing
tendency in this direction was accompa-
nied by decreasing attention to basi-
ness.
On the desk of one Of the principal Of
fetal of the road early last week there
lay a small bundle of carefully folded
documents, each methodically numbered
and prepared for the files. The one at
the top of the pile bore no external
marks, but inside was the notation "A.
NJ. report heading several closely writ
ten typewriter pages. With 1t was a
similar document labeled "P. NJ. report"
with the same mass of typewriter in
formation. Each gave a concise, clear
history of twelve hours Of the employees
life, his every movement and action and
nearly every word being recorded With
the accuracy of map.
The first report spoke OF night at
poker with losses out of proportion to
$3.50 a month salary. Others showed bills
due from tailors and others, and still
others, night carriage rides In auestiol,a-
bile company, little dinners for two with
wine. and flnallygthe maintenance OF two
establishments where family man
needed but one. The official. to whom
they were referred, made penciled
memorandum on the last of the series:
.Dischage Mr.. Blank. Stop reports.
Each railway system in the northwest
uses similar system when employees
chow tendencies marked by experience
as those that lead to extravaganza end
wrongdoing. Sometimes company secret
service performs the work, sometimes
rrivate agencies. In all cases it is done
with the utmost care and absolute Sc
crecy. The reports are seen only by
heads of departments and are after
wards sent to private files. The result
is always the same when suspicious are
we'll founded. A sudden resignation oc-
ours and new man is appointed. The
head of the department figures the ,sx-
tent Of the discharged mans opportuni-
ties and the probable loss the COM
pany has avoided.

a GOOD MOVEMENT.

The railroad commissioners of Iowa
are showing that they can be useful in
more than one direction. They were in
Chicago Tuesday and had conference
with the traffic officials Of the railroads
traversing Iowa regarding rates on ma
terial for constructing and improving
country roads. AS a result of the per-
sistent agitation Of such improvements
by the press and public speakers and
writers great efforts in this direction are
contemplated. In fact much improves
ment in methods of work has already
been accomplished. and now what is
most needed is crushed stone and gravel
in sufficient quantities and at as low a
cost as possible. AS freight carriage
forms great part Of the expense, the
commissioners want the railroads run
ring thru Iowa to assist them by max
ing az low rate as possible on these ar
,ticles. The railroad officials claim that
these rates are already exceptionally
low, but 1t is stated that they will prob
ably make the concession demanded by
the commissioners. 1t is certainly in
their interest and for their good that
they should. for traffic over railway
lines is impeded when country roads are
blocked by mud. Any Improvement
they may assist in will enable shippers
ia reach them at all times and will pre-
vent glut on freight lines when dried
out country roads make it possible for
Everybody to dump their produce upon
them at once.

4 .pENsloN Proposal.

IS Congressman Elmer ]. Burkett, OF
Nebraska, who. by the way. was born
= in Iowa and educated at Tabor College,
has prepared an amendment to the pen
sion laws, which he will introduce at the
opening Of the next session of congress.
BY 1t the different ratings en- account of
disabilities under the new law or the
law OF 1890 will be abolished. The effect
OF Mr.. Burkett's amendment will be to
make minimum rating Of s12- The law
4 OF 1880, commonly called the new law,
pensions a soldier who is unable to per-
form manual labor, in accordance with
the degree of his disabilities and in pro-
portion thereto, from S. to s12 month.
This degree Of disability is determined

ton, who make up their decision from

thus made are not always satisfactory

AS stated by Lincoln correspondent,
Mr.. Burkett takes the position that the
war is now removed almost forty years
and that after the experiences the men
went thru IT mdst be presumed that few
OF them are able to perform manual la
Dor and he thinks the time has come
when it is no longer necessary to have
