Roosevelt's Southern Policy.

Mr.. Roosevelt is th' one Presl
dent since the Civil War who has
been willing to ignore the mere
political aspects of the Southern
race question, and to consider the
situation broadly and with deep
sympathy tor both races. He has
seen the difficulties of the prob
lens which must find solution
by the people who have to live,
and work, and maintain clviliza-
tion in those Southern States. 1t
is a curious fatality, therefore, that
the white Democrats of the South
should be SO unappreciatlve of
Mr.. ROosevelt's position; while. on
the other hand, il is q great mark
of the Presidents magnanimity
that he Is not so much swerved
from what he had originally con
ceived to be the broad. historic
path of duty by the casual circum-
stance that his policy does not tor

"Ail eyes Iii Denver are now
turned upon the supreme court.
which now has Under considera
ton the validity Of the Rush
amendment. While the discus
sion OF that measure and It's effects
has grown TO be an old story. tho
tie-uo which the uncertainty caus-
es continues to be no less general
in its effects. There Is almost
nothing being done by ihe courts,
The city government Is doing as
little rs possible iu view oil the un-
certainty surrounding its official
acts, and the condition has brought
Il depression also INTO nearly all
liues OF business. The amount Of
money tied up is liz the hundreds
of thousands OF dollars, and every
day The situation becomes more
trying.
The supreme court. being very
august body, remains silent but il
Is known that all of the judges

reach an agreement they will at

clusion, and Will later hand do:n
more extended opinions.

The Importance of the Bureia
