COLONEL SANGER RESIGNS.
Cen. Robert s. Oliver Will Be Secre-
 try Roots Assistant.

Oyster Bay. N. Y., July la-President Roose- welt has decided to apoint Brigader- General Robert Shaw Oliver of Albany. N. Y., as as- sistant secretary of war to succeed Col VII liam Cary Sanger. resigned.
 The appointment was agreed on today at A conference between the President and secre- tary Root. It has been in contemplation for some time as 1t has been known that Colonel Sanger desired to retire from the War Depart ment on account of i'll health Of Mrs Sanger. His resignation was placed in the hands of the President to be accepted soon as con- venient.
 General Oliver has had military career of distinction. He served in the Civil War as a volunteer officer and subsequently, served as an officer of the regular army. For many years he has been identified with the National Guard of New York and now is a grigadfer- general in command of the brigade whose headquarters is at Albany General Oliver is engaged in the iron business and is as promi- nent in commercial circles as he is in mili- tary affairs.
 It has not been decded definitely when Gen. eral Oliver will assume his new office. but as Colonel Sanger desires to relinquish his duties as soon as possible the probabilities are that General Oliver will undertake them as soon as he can arrange his business affairs.
 The appointment of General Oliver, 1t can be said. is satisfactory to Senators Platt and Depew. who were consulted regarding it.
 Secretary Root is still the guest of Presi- dent Roosevelt. He will leave for Washing ton tomorrow morning. He and the President have considered the Alaskan boundary aues- ton with some during the visit. The secretary will leave for London Aug. 23rd The sessions or the joint commission will begin on Sept Sfd.

WASHINGTON'S WORDS
THE NEGRO EDUCATOR SPEAKS
 IN ATLANTA.
Says in Every Manly Way Should Care Be Taken to Promote
 Harmony Between
 the Races.

Atlanta, Ga., July 13.--Booker T. Wash ington tonight addressed an immense au- dience in the Peoples Tabernacle. the oc- casion being the thirty-sixth anniversary of the First Congregational Church (col- ored). A letter was read from Governor Terrell and an address on behalf of Mayor Howell was given by his private secre- tary.
 Professor Washington spoke in part as follows:
 Every decent white man and negro in the South Is glad that the time will soon be at an end when a negro will be popu- lar with his people in proportion as he curses the white man; or when a white man can be promoted to positions of trust and honor in proportion as he has been successful in unfairly condemning the me- gro. Let us all rather learn a lesson from one of the greatest of Southerners, Wade Hampton of South Carolina, when, on his dying bed he uttered the words: God bless all of my people, white and black
 The time has come here in the South when. believe, the very highest type of Southern white men and women are going more and more to take a hand in the elevation of the blacks at their doors. They are going to feel that 1t Is surely their duty and privilege to life up the me- gro in the South as to raise up the natives in Africa or China. In many sections this work is alre ady in progress. and we hail 1t as the dawning of brighter day.
 Whites and blacks are to reside to- gether in this country permanently, and we should lose no opportunity to cultivate in every manly way the greatest harmony between the races. Whoever North or South, black or white. stirs up strife need lessly. by word or deed, is an enemy to both races and to his country. While making our appeals for help and sym pathy we should not forget that in the last analysis the most effective appeal will consist in laying our cases before the community and State in which we re- side, nor that usefulness in our own homes will constitute our most potent and lasting protection.
 T appreciate from the bottom of my heart the tremendous and trying strain that Is now upon us and how difficult 1t is for us to make progress under such circumstances; but believe that the mo- mentous period through which we are now passing will draw to our support the good will, the sympathy and helpful CO., operation of larger numbers of white men in the South as we'll as in the North if we only exercise due patience, self-control and courage"
