THE RACE QUESTION.

whether or not the president
thought he was doing the colored
race a favor when he invited
Booker L. Washington to the
White house, it is quite evident
that he succeeded in doing the
coiored man a great deal of harm.
NO public man could Justify HIM
self In raising the question of So
cial equality unless he intended
TO follow it up by efforts to SO.
cure that equality. The presi.
dent unnecessarily injected the
question into our political life.
and then left the colored
man to bear it alone, except inso-
far as he has actually embarrass-
Cd him by his efforts to put him
into prominent position in the
south against the protests of the
white people. 1t seems, however
that in the case of Mr.. VIck Of
NorthCarolina"the door of hopen
was not important when it inter-
tered with the political plans Of
the presidents supporters IN
that State.
Ii the president really believes
social equality between the white
and the black man a desirable
thing, he ought to go farther than
he has; if he does not believe if
he ought not to have gone SO far
II he IS actuated by a desire to
help the negro by appointing
hlm to position he might show il
first by making the appointments
where the race question is not
acute; and, second, when he does
make an appointment in the
south he ought to make it for the
help of the negro appointed, and

WANTS PARK TO HIMSELF.

Cinnabar, Mont, April g.
President Roosevelt made an
early start this morning from his
headquarters in the park for an
extended trip through certain
portions of the reserve. There
are a large number of mountain
lions in the park and, as the
authorities are making deter
mined effort to eXterminate them,
1T Ia possible the president may
get few shots during his stay.
Notwithstanding that numerous
notices had been given to the
outside world that no newspaper
men would be allowed in the
park while the president was
there, one enterprising reporter
tried to force hia way in yeater-
day. He rode horse and had a
dog with him. The man was ar
rested before he had proceeded
far and the dog shot. Later the
correspondent was released.

Iillman is such a fruitful theme

Colonel gurpee Says He Has Some
 Startling Evidence.
 Waterbury, Conn.,, March 31.-Colonel Burpee and Chief of Detectives Dodds had conference at police headquarters tonight which lasted for an hour and a half. After the conference Colonel Burpee gave out an interview to The Associated Press representative. He said:
 "When the proper time comes we will present evidence which will be the most startling ever presented before court. There is no doubt but what we have evidence which will convict before the higher court the five men who were bound over this afternoon. The evidence is most conclusive. Furthermore there are four more strikers and also two outsiders against whom we have strong evidence.
 At the present time we are more hopeful than we have been at any time since the murder that the men implicat- ed in the affair which resulted in the death of Policeman Mendelssohn will be brought to justice.
 we have had strikers-who are not under arrest-come to us and offer us evidence but we refused it. We know that some of the young men under ar- rest in connection with the assault were drawn into the affair by others"

 Peoria, Ills, March 31.-The seventh annual banquet of the Kickapoo club was held here tonight. Covers were laid for 53O guests. The decorations were very elaborate. and 4thess list of speakers included Leslie M. Shaw, sec- retary of the treasury, and Charles Emory Smith of Philadelphia. Com- missioner General of Immigration Frank P. Sargent was also present,
 A large oil painting of President Roosevelt illuminated by incandescent lights caused spontaneous outburst of applause which lasted for some min utes. Both Secretary Shaw and MT. Smith were given ovations.
 Secretary Shaw's address was mas- terly history of the republican party from it's inception. He spoke in part as follows:
 The democratic demand for a re- vision of the tariff as a remedy for monopolies is not a new invention nor recent discovery. The remedy, how ever, is on a par with many others. The all-important question whether a given industry is controlled by monopoly must needs be established, before the proposed remedy can be applied. The present prohibitory law against trusts has generally been found adequate whenever the evidence attainable has been found sufficient to establish the ultimate fact. The Sherman law con- tains quite drastic provisions, applica- ble both to persons and to corporations when once proven to have combined or to have conspired to combine for the purpose of monopolizing a business or trade privilege. I would like to have our democratic friends who are advo- eating this remedy explain whether

 Giateiy Resigns.

Charleston, s. C., March 31.-W. D. Crum took charge of the customs house to-day as collector of the port. There was no incident of interest in connec- tion with his assuming office, except the immediate tender of his resignation by the chief inspector of customs, which had been placed in the hands of the deputy collector to take effect on the colored officials entrance to authority. There has been some talk here of possi- ble application to the courts for re- straining order against Crums exercise of the duties of office, alleging that the president may not fill vacancy except with the advice and consent of the sen- ate, where the senate has had opportu- nifty to pass on nominations, as was the case with the Crum appointment.
 It is understood that the matter has been brought to the notice of the may or and it is said he has referred it to the corporation counsel for considera- ton and report, but it is not thought that anything will be done about it.
