WASHINGTON LETTER.
From our Resu Cerrespendent. |
President Roosevelt's plan
for a non>partisan financial
bill has suffered a humilia>
ting defeat and it's impracti>
cabillty has compelled it's a.
abandonment. There was to
be a political symposium.
German and Bailey were to
agree amicably with .Aldrich
and Allison. The democratic
Donkey was to hob mob with
the Elephant. But the latest
and most authoritative news
from Oyster Bay and Provi-
dsnce. the home OF Senator
Aldrich, is to the effect that
hope of drafting a financial
bill on which even the repub-
liean leaders of both houses
can agree has been all but a.
bandoned and the President
has been forced to give up
the idea Of making any sps~
cife recommendations affect.
ling financial legislation in bis
message to the Congress
v which will be called in special
session on Noy.9. The failure
is charged to the rapacity of
Aldrich and the interests
lit would be ludicrous to say
the State-he represents. Re
that as it may, the republl-
can leaders of the Senate and
the House are even farther a.
part in their views than they
we're when Congress adjourn
ed last March.
Some OF the shrewdest re-
publican politicians are be.
ginning to believe that there
are breakers ahead for t h e
President because OF his rela'
tions with the labor unions
His advocacy of the cause o'
the laboring men at the time
at the anthracite coal strike
embittered the capitalisti'
classes in the East, while biz
recent stand against discriu
lination bet union q n {

all in their power to disabus

pense of the Indians and it is
disclosed that during Presi-

tion Secretary Hitchcock
made representations to the
President OF the incompati-
billty OF Tams Bixby, Chair
man of the Commission, hold
ing his position as such and
at the same using bis knowl-
edge and influence as a direc-
tor of a land investment com
pany. At that time, Bixby
brought such strong politi'
cal influence to bear that no
action was taken on Mr..
Hitchcock's representations.
1t is also shown that Secreta
ry Hitchcock has himself
been neglectful of the rights
OF the Indians, in that he has
omitted certain precautions

has failed to pursue m Q n

ton, that of becoming lieu

ously discussed by promi-
nent members Of Congress,
eoth democratic and republi
can. 1t is proposed to enact
a law abolishing the grade oi
lieutenant general, this law
to take effect when the last
Civil War veteran eleglble to
that Office shall have retir-
ed, which would bring it to
the date when Wood will be-

The opposition to Wood il
based on the fact that, with
in five years, he has rise I
from the position of surgeon
with the rank of captain, te
that of brigadier general, al
though he has seen but thir
ty days war service. and un
der ordinary circumstances
he would have but the ranl

1t may not have been a crime
but it was one of those blum

The Charleston News ahd Cou
rier quotes the Brooklyn Ea.
gle on that point and then
submits some remarks OF it's
own:
Commenting on the Presi-
dents letter on lynching the
Brooklyn Eagle says:
Unfortunately the whole
subject is bound up with the
revival of tho negro question
in politics, a question McKin
ley laid to rest. We wish we
could acquit his successor of
more than the intent to re
vive it. He did not intend to
revive it-but he revived it,
because of the error of push
ing academic propositions
and constitutional rights a
eainst natural conditions
which make havoc OF both"
That is true. every word ol
it, and President Roosevelt
is directly responsible for the
greater part of the fraction
existing between the races
not only in the Southern
States, but in all parts OF tht
country. His determination
to force his theories OF race
upon the white people OF tn
country have been resented
BY the white people to th'
great detriment OF both ra
