 But the newcomer was out of earshot before the station agent could finish. Down the tracks he went toward the east, walking like fury, with his head down and his little bag swinging in the dim light of the yard lamps till the night swallowed him.

A NEGRO STATE NOT WANTED.

The Washington dispatch, announc-
ing that because of the neyer-ending
revolution in Hayti this government
was considering the question of annex
ing that island to the United States.
must have caused uneasiness to every
one who read it. Hayti is a French
speaking, negro republic, where
white man is not permitted to hold
office, and where the blacks and mu-
lattoes have been fighting among
themselves for the offices ever since
the island was free. No sensible man
wishes to add such population to that
OF the American republic 1t is not
fitted for statehood and would not sub
NIT, except after such a war as is be-
ing waged in the Philippines, to a CO.
lonial form of government.
In Porto Rico there is already con-
siderable friction between the black
and mixed. races. who form a majority
of the population, and the American
rulers of the island. There is a CARPET
bag government. that puts on the frils
and furbelows of a vice-regal court.
The American governor has his body
guard and his cabinet is the insular
aristocracy. A band of music plays
in the palace yard while he plies knife
and fork and the plain people pay for
the fiddling.
The establishment of colonies means
the establishment of privileged classes
and already we have too many. With
l..
and naval aristocracy and the mon
eyed aristocracy of trusts or mo-
nopoies, the republic is fast drifting
from the old landmarks and the faith
of the fathers. The people don't want
any more colonies, and surely no e.
| gro state.

THE CONSTITUTIONAL AMENDMENT
PLAN

Congressman Brantley of the
Eleventh Congressional District agrees
with the Morning News that the Pres
ident's plan for dealing with the evils
of trusts is not likely to be adopted.
The plan, as is we'll known, is con-
stitutional amendment giving Congress
power TO provide for the supervision
and control of trusts.
In an interview published in the
Morning News yesterday Mr.. Brantley
pointed out that it took a long time
to get a constitutional amendment rat
ified-so long that only two amend
ments have been made to the consti-
tuition in a century. With the power
trusts have it would probably take an
other century to get such an amend
ment as the President desires.
1t is worthy of notice that the papers
which are supposed to favor trusts are
not saying anything against the Presi-
dents plan. The trust magnates are
not criticising it. And it is a safe pre-
diction that they will not criticise it.
But if an effort is made TO amend the
constitution as the President proposes,
it is virtually certain that their in
fuenee will be felt against such legis-
lation.
OF course the President is very much
in earnest in this matter. He is under
the necessity for suggesting some
method of dealing with the evils of
trusts. He cannot advocate a reduc-
ton of the tariff on trust-made articles
because his party would not support
him in that. In fact, his party would
not support him in advocating any dis
turbance of the tariff at this time The
only thing for him to do therefore, if
he wants to have a policy in regard to
trusts, is to favor the constitutional
amendment plan, which is practically
no plan at all since there is no prob
ability of its being successful.
There is no doubt that the Demo-
cratic party is on the right line in the
matter of trusts. Trusts must be at
tackled through the tariff. If we have
foreign competition In trust-made
articles it will be impossible for trusts
to rob the people by charging mo-
nopoly prices for their products
If the Democratic party stands by
the position it has taken for dealing
with trusts it will have the people
with il.

STONES PLAN TO END THE STRIKE

Our dispatches yesterday indicated
that the Governor of Pennsylvania had
about made up his mind to call an
extra session of the Legislature for
the purpose of having a compulsory
arbitration law passed. He expressed
the opinion that such a law would be
followed almost Immediately by he
ending of the coal strike.
1t has not yet appeared on what
Senator Platt based his statement that
the strike would be over in two weeks,
perhaps in one week. Doubtless it
was based upon his knowledge that
Senators Quay and Penrose were to
make a supreme effort to get the coal
operators to agree to arbitration.
The senators had a conference with
Mr.. Baer, president of the Reading
Railroad, and it is to be presumed
that they used all of their influence
to get him to agree to arbitration The
conference was a failure and the re-
suit of it, when it became known, cast
gloom over the entire section in which
the strike is in force.
President Baer declared that the OBJ
orators would neither arbitrate nor
make concessions. In other words, the
operators stand by the position they
took when the strike was ordered The
firmness with which they maintain
their position justifies the conclusion
that it is their purpose TO break up
the United Mine Workers Union They
deny, OF course, that they have any
such purpose. It is a fact that they
are taking no active steps against the
union, but II the union loses this fight
the probability is that It will go 20
pieces. Its members win lose CONF
dence In II and will not contribute 10
rs support. To destroy the union
therefore. the operators have only 60

Say what you please about the
bunch, but you can put me down as
believing in it all the time" said an
observant man. whose views are re-
ported in the New Orleans Times-Den-
ocrat, and can understand why it is
men who bet. on horse races and who
play at other games of chance put 50
much confidence in it. Really the
bunch is not a mythical thing alto
gether. There is something in it. 1t
has a history. The bunch is looked
upon as a slang word, one belonging
to the sporting vernacular. While it
is used more by men who bet than
by other classes, yet it is not a slang
word. 1t is not only good English, but
there is a special reason for giving the
word it's gambling significance. In the
dictionaries the bunch is a push or
something of that sort, and the word
is given a variety of other meanings.
How the word originated / do not
know, but we may imagine that the
origin of the word might be found in
the calling of men who are forced to
bend over while pushing vehicles along,
as they do in many places of the world
where men take the place of horses and
other dumb brutes. Here we may find
suggestion as to the origin of the
word hunch-back. The compound
word is descriptive of an attitude. 1t
has in it the idea of pushing something.
showing it along. It's a good thing,
and so on, as they say around the pool
rooms. But the more particular thing
l had in mind was the legend of the
bunch. l do not know how or when
it started, but there is a very common
belief to the effect that the bunch is
d thing of good luck if one will but
make it so. 1t is very much like the
legend in regard to touching a China
man. If you meet a man with
hunchback simply touch the bunch,
rub your hand over it, and you will
have good luck. There was a little
incident a few weeks ago which am
ply illustrates the idea. / was out
with a friend of mine, and we had been
called into a place where we found
man with a hunchback. I had never
paid any attention to the bunch le
gend, and, of course. had no faith in
it. But it seemed to be a passion with
my friend. I must touch that bunch,
he said. and he at once began to make
all kinds of excuses, to get his hand
on the bunch. He finally made up his
mind that the only chance he would
have would be when he took his leave.
| He would pat the man on the back
| and rub his hand over the bunch. He
| ala THIS, ana ne walked out or the
| house a happy man. The curious part
| about the thing is that we had not
walked two blocks from the place be-
| fore my friend found a new crisp one
| dollar bill, and he needed the money
| at the time, as he was a little short
on change. The next day I found a
hunchback, and I thought l would try
| the same thing just for the fun of it.
I did so. Do you know I hadn't walked
! two blocks before l found a one-dollar
bill. That may sound little strange,
| and really it is strange, but I believe
in the bunch now, and somehow 1 am
inclined to think that the men who
bet are not so far wrong when they
| put faith in the hunch."
