American Tar Go. Wants
Franchise Straight Out.
READY TO PUT IN A GAS PLANT
Dr.. Darrin, Member Of Company, in
Town to Look After Ordinance by
Which Franchise May Be Secured.

DR.. c. B. Darrin, member of the
American Tar company Of Fairhaven
and Whatcom, which is seeking gas
franchise from the city council for
the establishment of rival gas plant
in Walla Walla, arrived in the city
this morning to look after the Ordd-
nance by which the company hopes
to secure a franchise. The ordinance
which was introduced in the council
several months ago and laid indef-
nitely on the table was resurrected a
few meetings ago on request Of Coun-
Gilman Mexican and has reached it's
second reading.
It's final passage is said to be held
in allegiance until the company posts
"a forfeit of $1,000 that if the fran
chise is granted that the proposed
plant will become reality. The mat
ter of posting the $1,000 came to DR..
Darrin indirectly, he said. ''No Off
cial notification from the council has
been received that the company would
be required to post a guarantee but
it is understood that several members
of the council have expressed the SEN
timent that some sort of a guarantee
should be posted to protect the city.
If the plant was put in, the guarantee
could be refunded
DR.. Darrin this morning said that
under no circumstances would this
company consent to posting any sum
in return for franchise as a guar
antee of good faith. His company, he
said, stood ready to put in plant at
any time the council saw fit to grant
a franchise clothed with the power to
admit Of them doing business in COM
petition with the local plant, but I'M
der no circumstances would a guar
antee sum be put up.
DR.. Darrin will confer with mem
bers of the council while in the city
and the ordinance as it stands may
come up for passage at the next regu-

THE PERRY LECTURES.

Emma P. Smith Miller from the
Miller school for girls writes Of Mr..
Perrys lectures there:
81 want to thank you for having
given us the opportunity of a visit
from that most delightful bookman-
Mr.. P. A. Perry-with his very re-
markable collection of books, manu-
scripts and missals.
81 consider it one Of the opportunI-
ties of a life time to have had under
our own roof, with liberty to handle
and examine at pleasure, and with
Mr.. Perry to describe and explain,
these rare treasures, such as people
gladly travel thousands Of miles
merely to see-in the glass cases of
same great museum,-and I can but
wish that every girls school and every
woman's club in the country could
have just such a visit from Mr.. Perry
as we have had-for it could not fail
to mark a new era in their culture. h"
The Perry Lectures.
1.-THE world today has greater need
for men capable Of approaching ef-
forts than of criticising results"
The Perry lectures which will be-
gin Friday evening at Whitman COL
lege show the evolution of book max
ing and the accumulated expression
Of art in books for centuries. The
material has been chosen with a
choice discrimination possessed only
by a man of Mr.. Perry's broad cul-
ture, and experience. His deep ad-
miration for dead heroes in the liter
airy world does not blind him to pre-
sent excellence in the work Of living
artists or artisans He has per-
sonal acquaintance with many authors
of books and also the patient, labor
loving binders. Of these interesting
people Mr.. Perry talks in a delight
fully informal fashion, exhibits their
work and reveals the points of excel
lence which is an education in itself.

though his observations are severely

has decided to call Mr.. LONG to the new

Mr.. Long on Editorial Writers.

The Hon. JOHN DAVIS LONG OF Hing
ham, State of Massachusetts, is reported
to have emitted this view Of editorial
articles and their authors:
you read an editorial in daily and It seems
to speak with all tho authority Of a great paper
but think when you read 1t that Il was written by
man In his shirt sleeves with his hat on his head.
in little 7by room and II he should buttonhole
you on the street you would want to get away from
him: and your opinion is Just as good as his"
Possibly Mr. LoN1 speaks with au-
thorty as to the conditions which pre-
vail in the thought-parlors of the jour-
naIists of Buckfeld, Me-, and bingham,
Mass. The heat generated by intellec-
tual motion may well drive the motor
to his shirt sleeves; and these must be
convenient for the absorption of some
of the tremendous eddes Of ink that
whirl in the tempest Of composition,
The correlation OF inward mental
energy and the hat, in position, as its
visible sign, is curious. While the hat
is there the head cannot be lost; that
must be the psychology of it. But why
does Mr.. LONG gibe at this habit or Pc
culiarty? He is Dry. Surely he does
not wish us to surmise that his esteemed
contemporaries in Buckfield and Hing
ham would produce sublimer pieces if
they garAnded their convolutions with
wet towel, wrapped their talents in a

70 CROSS MACOMBs DAM BRIDGE.
Huckleberry Road at Last Gets Its Fran
cfise From the Aldermen.

The Union Railroad Company sue
ceeded yesterday In getting through
the Board Of Aldermen franchise
to lay its tracks across Macomb's Dam
bridge Twice the company's applca-
tion has been rejected by the Aldermen.
The second time was in the early part of
the summer when the Tammany Aldermen
and their fusion allies, led by Tim Sullivan,
voted against it almost in body
Yesterday the third application was
considered by the Board and for some tim.
its passage looked doubtful. II required
90 votes and that number was obtained
only after several roll calls and after AT
least half a dozen Aldermen had changed
their votes
Alderman Sullivan voted for it, although
he explained he did so only because he
had been asked to vote for il by the repre-
sent tatives of The Bronx
Il look upon this franchise as steal,
he said, "The city has spent millions of
dollars on this bridge and now we are asked
to turn II over to company which comes
to us under false colors. There is no Union
Railroad Company. II is owned body and
soul by the Metropolitan. and it is that
company which will get the benefit Of the
franchise.
The franchise was ultimately granted by
vote of 81 to g. The three Aldermen
voting against il were AIT. Wentz and Wafer,
all from Brooklyn.

A New Theory on the Negro Question.

To THE EDITOR OF THE SuN-Sfr: The fact OF
the disappearance In America Of the man and woman
OF pure African ancestry. that race amalgamation
has already proceeded TO such an extent that all OF
called negroes have the blood OF other races
In them principally Caucaslan-is not sufficiently
considered.
1t Is nearly three centuries since the importation
Of the African to this country began and century
since It ceased Since then the only negroes thai
have come to have been fro the West Indies and
In the continent south OF u.s. as is well known race
amalg amation has been more rapid than among us
Admitting that there Is greater repugnance TO
amalgamation with the negro than with any other
OF the colored races, We have the fact that the
process OF black warp with white hilin has prac
ticay eliminated the pure African. Hcnccforward
this process will proceed with greater rapidity. In
a century more the negro blood will be absorbed
into say. thirty to forty millions Of Americans, ard
will shade from light brunette to the quarter
coon" who will then be not!ccaby rare In numbers
AS this proceeds. and In proportion as we realize
thu. the yellow man is mostly white n an, race
hatred will decrease as an element In tho mob fury
that results in lynching Also the Catholic Church
viii gain in influence with the negro and the South
Is going to abso rb larger immigration OF Catholics
in future. That Church viii build into the negro
character both OF men and women, the virtue OF
purity.
To sum up, here my points:
l. We are dealing with negrods not negroes.
2 Assaults on white women are due 10 the mix
turc OF white and the methods Of that mixture.
B. Race amagamatlon Is proceeding more zap
d.ly than ever and will continue to do 50.
T. This amalgamaton and the Catholic religion
Will dlsslpate race hatred
1t is . popular belief that the progeny Of black
and white are than either pure black or pure
white but how can be-reconcied with the fact that
a the notably crcdltablc negro men and women
have white blood in them aS, for instance Douglass
and B. T. Washington The white strain makes the
black man stronger intellectually and physically.
and II Will also be found to dispose him favoTaby
10 tho moral standards OF Christianity when these
are properly presented to him by the Catholic
Church. r. +. MCLEoD.

Hopeful Prudence in the President

We have received letter criticising
and making light Of the careful pro-
visions for the protection of the person
of the President during his recent trip.
when we read of the President rush.
ing across Manhattan Island in the even
ing surrounded by Secret Service men
and preceded and followed by troop
of Gathering guards, says this letter,
"ons wonders if the hero OF San Juan
10 afraid OF his own people.
No reasonable man wonders or finds
fault with the use Of these safeguards
BY the President of the United States in
his travels, when no is surrounded by
many thousands of the people. Mr..
ROOSEVELT, in accepting such protec-
ton, 40 far from indicating unwarrant-
able distrust of "his people, affords
happy evidence that he is listening to the
dictates Of requisite prudence instead of
gratifying merely boyish desire to
pose as Indifferent to danger.
It is the duty of the President Of the
United States to avoid all unnecessary
exposure of himself to the possibility of
assault by malice or lunacy, and to take
every reasonable measure of precaution
against it in the way of official guards
OF his person which the resources Of his
office permit. His people as the ex-
ample of President MCKINLEY at Buffalo
80 sadly demonstrated, include all sorts
and conditions of men, and among them
crazy enemies of the social order to whom
assassination appeals irresistibly as
means of gratifying revenge or acquiring
notorlety.
The President has no right to take any
risk which might bring calamitous re-
suits on the whole people and not on him.
self alone. Even if he is disposed to
make show OF personal recklessness, he
has no right to subject the exalted Office
he holds to the danger Of violent assault.
It was not THEODORE ROOSEVELT, the
individual who was rushing across Man
haitian Island; it was THEODORE RoosE-
vELr the President Of the United States,
on whose safety from attack the pro-
foundest and most widely diffused inter-
ests of this whole republic depend.
Instead OF criticism, Mr.. ROOSEVELT
should receive only commentator for
the wiser counsels Of prudence to which
he is now listening.

LifebOats and Tugs.

The season of gales and ocean turbu-
lence is at hand, and the lesson taught by
the recent wreck of the schooner Henry
p. Mason on the New Jersey coast ought
not to be neglected. When the vessel
had foundered and her people were toss
ing helplessly on the raging sea in yawl
made fast to one of the stakes of a fish
pound off Galilee, the life-saving crews
at that place and Long Branch were un-
able to give any assistance because they
could not take their boats out through
the surf. The people were finally saved
by the Sandy Hook lifeboat, which was
towed down from the Horseshoe by the
tug Navigator.
Only because there were international
yacht races did that tug chance to be in
the Horseshoe that day. Had she not been
there, the men and women in the yawl
must have perished. The character Of
the New Jersey coast is such that in
violent sea it is impossible to send life
boat out from the beach, The bottom
falls away SO gradually that broken
water extends long way out. 1t is not
in human power to row boat through it.
Swamping and capsizing are inevitable
and the boat must be beaten back
Hence, unless the vessel in distress is
driven far enough in to be reached by
the breeches buoy apparatus, the life
savers are unable to give aid. The sug-
gestion offered by the Mason wreck is
that the Government keep tugs at con-
venient places in the stormy season
ready to tow lifeboats to scene Of dis
aster. But while this plan might be
satisfactory in some cases. it could not
reach all. For example, the stretch of
beach between the Hook and Barnegat
Inlet, the next shelter accessible to a
tug, is over forty miles long and from
that inlet to the entrance to Little Egg
Harbor is nearly twenty miles more.
Tugs might be efficient for consider
able distance on each side Of these shell
tiers, but they would not be able to cover
the entire intervening districts. On
the English coasts they are employed
with excellent results and considera-
ton should be given to the possibility
Of using them here. But resourceful
nautical minds might we'll busy them
selves with devising some plan by which
lifeboats can be got off such shore as
that of New Jersey without the use of
tugs.
