THE announcement of the intention
of the President to enforce the laws
upon the plains in reference to the re-
moval OF unlawful fences put up by the
cattle kings appears to have been the
opening passage OF snsuncommonly in
teresting chapter of history. The cat
tie range monopolists, it seems, are
talking OF resisting the law. They are
not content with using public property
for private gain, with violently ex-
Guiding others from the privileges
which they have usurped, and with
detiantly breaking the law in the cree.
ton of fences upon the land OF other
people. They now talk of forcibly re-
sisliug the authority of the nation.
They are trespassers. but they propose
to resist election and to resist ell at
temptJ at lot 9rference with their IN.
lawful practices upon the land which
they have invaded. The full force of
the law should be brought to bear
against these grasping cst.lemen and
that p. d. q. The army could not be
better employed tlan in outtiug them
from the public lands.

to those who have regularly attended
the annual commencements, as they re-
sljze that the place which knew him so
long, knows him no more forever. But
the memory of his noble Christian life,
Doth as minister and professor, will be
precious heritage for the Seminary
snd the church at large, for while be
was a devoted son Of the Episcopal
Church he was purely cstnolic In his
sympathles and loved all who loved and
served Christ.

| the Old Testament division OF this
| committee. 1t will be remembered
that the revised New Testament Was
brought out in 1881 and the revised
Old Testament 10 1885.
Among Doctor Packard's published
writings are the "Recollections OF q
Long Life" which came out In the
Protestant Episcopal Review, for
merly published at the Seminary.
It ia a matter of regret that these have
never yet appeared in book form as they
are full OF interest Dg "reminiscences OF
prominent people known to DR.. Pack
ard as we'll as OF the Seminary and its

SATURDAY EVENING, MAY 8. 1902

The ARREST of colored woman on
an electric train yesterday evening for
refusing to occupy portion OF the car
allotted to people OF her race and the
action of the Mayor this morning in
fining her five dollars has caused con-
siderable comment among many per-
Sous, mostly those who desire 10 see
the Dew law enforced. The action OF
the woman Is believed by many to
have been melted for the purpose Of
testing the validity OF the law, and the
fact that she refused to pay the fine
and told the Mayor be would have to
lock her up until she communicated
with her counsel in Washington lends
color to the impression. As was
stated in the Gazette sometime ago,
the well-disposed colored people IN
Alexandria see no vital principle in-
volyed 10 the new law, and are en-
deavoring to induce ell members OF
their race to respect it, as it works
neither injustice nor inconvenience 10
any one and is destined IN the Interests
OF peace and good order on the trains
The conductors have equal control
over white passengers, and should the
latter refuse to occupy desigustsd seats
they also make themselves ameDsble
to the law. Proprietors OF hotels, com
aon carriers and others have been
conducting business on the same prin'
cple from time immemorial. A man
for instance, enters hotel and asks fol
q room. He is conducted to one bear
ing a special number, and he never
thinks OF demanding the privilege Of
selecting any room he pleases on that
floor. The same system prevails on
Pullman Car trains. The passenger
purchases his ticket and is conducted
to certain Car bearing a name and as
signed certain numbered seat. So fsr
as we have heard DO exceptions have
ever been taken to the rule. On q
steam boat or steamship passenger is
placed 10 a Dum Oered ststeroom and on
transatlantic steamers he is compelled
during the voyage to occupy Dum-
bered seat in the dining saloon. The
electric cars which run between here
aud Washington are all Of the same
class. One affords the same accommo-
dations ss the others, and the fact that
white passengers are compelled to sill
in one end OF the cars and oolored In
another works no hardship, and none
but obdur ts persons would make an
issue over the matter.

Tho Metronolitan Handicap.

New York, May 3.-The official list

10 the early betting today, at to l, but
there are several other candidates for

forty thousand persons will journey to
the track. The race will be run over
the Withers course, a distance OF one
mile, and is worth over $4,000 to the

ton that the American army was not
more responsible for Isolated cases OF

the democratic party for the cruelties,
the killing cure, the sand cure, the
yhipping cure, and the red shirt cure
10 the campaign in North Carolina 10
1898. Senator Simmons answered Mr..
Pritchard and there was hot debate,
which was almost personal at times.
An agreement has been reached to
dispose OF the Rosebud Indian reserva-
ton bill today and the sundry civil bill
will be considered. 1t is not likely thst
the Philippine civil.government bill
will be taken up.
The Senate agreed to the conference
report on the Indian appropriation bill.
HOUSE.
The House passed the anti.conspiracy
bill reported from the judiciary COM
mittse without a word OF debate. 1t
came up rather unexpectedly under the
call of committees after the District OF
Columbia appropriation bill had been
disposed Of. Mr.. Littlefield, OF Maine,
who had filed a minority report on the
bill and who bad intended to offer some
amendments, came In just as it was put
upon its passage, and the vote wss
taken before he understood what was
going on. The amendment providing
the machinery for the enforcement OF
tue personal tax law~ot the District OF
Columbia passed in 1878 was placed on
the District appropriation bill as o
rider, aud the bill was passed. The
bill to provide diplomatic and consular
officers for the republic of Cuba also
was passed, as was the bill to regulate
iDjunctions. The bill regulating issue
of passports to residents of the island
possessions was made special order.
The question of changing the date OF
the Presidents Inauguration was fur
ther discussed by the House judiciary
committee yesterday, but no decision
was reached.
