State Of Virginia w ms.

The decision of Chief Justice
Fuller and Judge Waddill. in the
United States Court in Richmond,
Va, on Saturday, in which they
denied Mr.. Wise's application for
an injunction, has given great
satisfaction to Virginia people.
The case instituted by Captain
Wise is regarded as au attack
upon the Commonwealth, and re
sented as such.
Captain WiSe's application,
which the Chief Justice has de-
MED, was for an Injunction to re
strain the State Board of Can
vaSSerS from issuing certificates of
election to Congressman recently
elected in the State, on the
ground that the election held un.
der the new Constitution was not
valid, because large number Of
negroes had been deprived of their
votes Chief Justice Fuller held
that the United States Court had
no jurisdiction in the matter.
Captain Wise stated that he would
appeal to the United States Su
preme Court.
THE writ is not sought in aid
Of jurisdiction already acquired, :"
said the Chief Justice. NOR does
it appear that there is no other
remedy.

A Very Good Idea.

If the President must recognize
the cOlored voters it would he a
great piece of party strategy for
him to appoint them in Republi-
can States. 1t might moderate
the demands of Massachusetts for
cOlOred men in Federal offices,
and it would make it possible to
create a formidable Republican
party in the South. Representa-
tive Bankhead says the Presi-
dents policy "tends powerfully
to solidify all white men under
the Democratic banner 1t is a
case of trading off electoral votes
for votes in the nominating con-
vention.-PhiladeiphiG Record.

built abroad. s'While this may
true" says Senator Clay, "Sena-
tor Frye does not state that the
bill will cost the United States
millions of dollars for time with
out limit. 1t is the old argument
of the protectionists that the
United States can hoist itself by
its own suspenders. 1t will mere
ly result in transferring a portion
of the money which all people are
taxed to raise, into the pockets of
a few who will benefit by the
building and sailing of the ships.
The recent communication of
the President, in which he states
his position in regard to the APP
pOintment of negroes to public
offices, is condemned by members
of his own party without stint.
Not that they take issue with the
principles voiced by Mr.. Roose-
welt, but because they regard his
letter as needless and foolish
utterance calculated to do no
good and possibly to make enc.
mics for himself and his party.
"lt is Quixotic and | suppose it
is honest, but it is foolish in the
extreme, worthy of a school boy
rather than of a politician" said
prominent Republican yester-
day.
AS result of Secretary Moody's
assertion that the duty on anthra-
cite coal was struggled into the
tariff, number OF the "little
mem bers" of the House have has
tened to introduce bills repeating
it. There is, of course, no hope
that they will be considered for a
moment but the members will
send copies of the printed bills to
their constituents with the hope
that they may gain support and
help to mitigate the effects of the
high price OF coal.

Simply a Republican.

Mr.. Bryan's comment on Can.
mems success in the contest for
the Speakership is as follows.
'Uncle joe is simply Re-
publican; he is perfectly satisfied
with the Republican party; he has
implicit faith that the crops will
be good when the Republican
party is in power, that prices will
be high to those who want high
prices and low to those who want
low prices, provided Republican
rule is not disturbed.
"There is nothing that he wants
to reform, and, therefore, he does
not have to worry about platforms
or promises. He is the natural
and logical candidate of those
who accept Mr.. Hanna's doctrine
of Let well enough alone.' If he
is chosen for the Speakership, as
now seems certain, we may count
on the Republicans adopting a
policy of mastery inactivity"

VIR las SUPRA E
CLAUSE.

The following are substantially the
main features of the suffrage plan now
in operation in the ord Dominion,
which is causing considerable comment
at this time: Prior to January l, 1904,
four classes of persons are allowed to
register-namely, soldiers who have
been engaged in any war in which this
country has been engaged; the sons of
such persons; persons who have paid
to the State, for the year preceding that
in which they register not less than
one dollar of tax on property in their
own names, and persons who can sun
derstand and give a reasonable explain
alton of any section of the Constitu-
ton" submitted to them by the officers
of registration. Persons registered I'M
der any one or more of these clauses
will constitute what is called the ''per-
manent roll, " and will not be required
to register again except for the purpose
of fixing their residence. After Janu-
airy l, 1904, new provisions both as to
registration and voting come into OPP

becomes imperative. There will be
only two requirements for registration,
namely, the person applying for regis

years next preceding that in which he

from a legislative viewpoint, by the
introduction of antitrust and tariff
bills Full 20 such measures were iu-
troduced and referred to appropriate
committees. Some of them were offer

offered by Republicans; some were eX-

their provisions. Among them was Il
