JUDGE HAS STRAIGHT TIP
BUT HE REFUSES TO LEAVE THEE
BENCH TO GO AND PLAY II,
HOWEVER.
New York Sun Special Service.

New York Sun Special Service,
Chicago, April S.-Judge Richard
w. Clifford had "sure thing" on one
Of the Oakland races yesterday, but
would not interrupt legal session In
the criminal court building to play It.
The tip came in the form Of tele-
gram brought into the court by a mess
senger boy, just as the judge was in
tent on a knotty proposition In law.
He quickly opened the message and
read:
"Get in on Kitty Kelly. Good
thing. Can't lose"
The judges face expanded into "a
board smile as he turned to his clerk
and said
"This isn't for me. I wouldn.t
think of taking advantage of It,"
An error in the sheriff's office was
responsible for the delivery Of the tel
egram. Early in the afternoon tel
ephone inquiry came from the Vest
ern Union Telegraph company asking
If w. M. Clifford was in the building.
Deputy Sheriff Samuel Palmer says he
answered.: "The only Clifford here
is Judge Clifford. He is holding court
and can't be disturbed. He isn't the
man."
The messenger said he had been di-
rected to deliver the telegram to the
Judge.
Kitty Kelly crossed the wire wins
ner at to 1.

NEGRO ON NEGRO.
Conservative Advice by Thrift, Rye.
putable COl0red Citizen.

OF all the speeches made during the
recent session of the American Bank
ers' Association, none has attracted
greater attention than that of Mr.. John
Mitchell, Jr., a negro, Il respected cit
izen and successful bank president, of
Richmond, Va. He discussed the color
line in the South from a point of view
which gained for him the respect and
hearty applause of the thousand or
more tinanciers who heard his re-
marks.
The sun and substance of Mr.. Nit
chelfs speech vas that the industrious
whites and blacks of the South are
friends, and that there would be no
such thing as a serious race question
i'll the South, but for the good for moth
ing l%oafers, Of which he said each
race has its share. 1T is primarily
the black loafers who cause the trou-
bles which beset III race said Mr..
Mitchell, "and we negroes who are
striving to better our condition and
add to the moral and material welfare
Of our people despise them as thor
oughly as do the whites.' Continuing,
Mr.. Mitchell said: Il an a product
Of Southern soil, was educated in
Southern schools, have been a member
of the City Council of Richmond, and
have had the generous aid of leading
white citizens of that city in building
up the business of the savings bank
of which l nm the President. Speak
ing for myself, l can honestly say l
have never been Disseminated against
Lecause of my color. A bank nan
aged by negroes could not exist in the
South without the encouragement of
the white business men. In Virginia
alone negroes are operating banks
having an aggregate capital Of $3.50
600 and deposits of 100000. Our Vir-
ginia negroes w property valued at
$1S,000,O00, and the crops raised by
negroes throughout the South have an
average value Of $172,000. 900 a year.
When you hear a reputable Southern
white man denounce the negro, you
may in almost very case be certain
that he means the loafer, not the
worker of our race. sis 4s+..~
I'm conclusion let me say. that II l
have created a different impression
from the one which some Of you have
received from other sources. l have
speech was roundly applauded, and Col.
Lowry, President Of one of the ma
tional banks of Atlanta, Ga. made a
felicitous speech in response, confirm
ing all that his fellow brother had said

in a biscuit, bread or cake bakery or
confectionery establishment more than
sixty hours in any one week, or more
than ten hours in one day." Before
this law bakers sometimes worked
nearly twenty hours a day, and slept in
the bakeries, with results that can be
imagined.
One of the most important, and per-
haps the most important, of Judge Par
ker's decisions, was that Of the Ma
tiOnal Protective Association of Steam
filters and Helpers ct al. VS.. James NJ.
Cumming. The lower court had given
Judgment virtually forbidding the
strikers to interfere in any way with
the business of the employer, or to do
any of the things which workingmen
consider they have a right to do in Or
der to make a strike effective. Judge
Parker delivered the opinion of the
Court of Appeals, strongly upholding
the rights of w%orkingmen on strike or
about to strike, and laying a solid
foundation for labor to stand on in all
such matters in the future.
These are but examples of the atti-
luue VI JuuSe tdfke toward LABOR
from the very beginning of his career.
They show him to be labor's friend in
a real and practical sense. His decis-
ions speak for themselves. They
breathe that spirit Of justice, impartial
ity and fairness which is all that labor
asks for in the advocacy of its rights,
and they prove Judge Parker to be en-
tirely fearless in his opposition to those
grasping employers who, if they were
not restrained by such decisions as
those of Judge Parker, would seek to
grind the very soul out Of the working
man.
With Judge Parker in the White
House American labor would have
there a true and tried friend. not one,
like President Roosevelt, who talks
and vapors and then when an issue like
that of the deported union miners in
Colorado is presented to him shirks his
duty for fear of displeasing the rich
Republican corporations that own the
mines.
Judge Parker's record as d friend Of
labor speaks for itself.
Every tgne friend of labor will vote
for Parker. :7e+srl 80 pX

INDEPENDENTS ENTHUSIASTIC
Qualification Over the Strength
of State and National Tickets.

A surprising and gratifying fact 1t
is that almost without exceptions the
prominent Independents in New York
are quite as enthusiastic over the
nomination of Judge Herrick for Gov
ernor as over that of Judge Parker for
President. John E. Parsons, Everett
2. Wheeler, John G. Milburn. Fran
els Lynde Stetson and a host of others
who have supported the Republican
ticket for some years past have pub
licly expressed their intention to vote
and work for the overthrow of Odell-
ism ais well as R~ooseveltism. The
Democrats of New York, being of like
mind, it is considered a certainty that
the Empire State will give a large ma
jority for both State and National
tickets.

SUNSHINE.
Republican Newspapers Never Weaker
in SUPPORT Of Their Ticket.

If any one doubts that Republican
harmony in New York should this year
be spelled with a small H. let him
glance ovcr the editorial columns of
the Republican newspapers of New
York City.
The Sun, Willie it shines feebly for
Bruce, who is running for second place
on the State ticket, declares in the
most cold-blooded way that Higgins
has neither the character nor the abil-
ity to qualify him for the Governor
ship, but he will serve as well us any
one to point the way to overwhelming
and deserved Disaster Just think of
that for Il paper that shines for ALL"
The Press throws fragrant bouquets
to Higgins, but says, An otherwise
excellent ticket has probably been dan
gerously injured by the nomination of
Bruce for Lieutenant-Governor, and
whether Republicans can reconcile
themselves to supporting him in SUI
ficient numbers to elect him will re-
main in doubt" Think of that for a
paper that boasts of its regularity in
swallowing any sort of Il ticket which
the Republican bosses dare put up.
To round out this impressive display
of harmony and brotherly love, the Wall
Street Journal. in a double headed ed
~itorial, pets the whole ticket with
brickbats and decayed vegetables. This
able exponent of Republicanism de-
clares in so many words that the jig
is up. Under the incubus of Odell and
Odelism," it says, 1.-The Republican
State ticket is doomed to defeat"
The poor old Tribune will evidently
be the sole supporter in New York City
of what the Sun is fond Of calling
The Grocery shop Ticket"
Thinking people are disguised with
the clap-trap about "Roosevelt's Wig
orous and courageous handling of the
trusts" If Roosevelt be really the her
cules who is clubbing the life out of
the trusts, why are all the trust mag
mates in favor of his election, and why,
in heavens name, should they be the
chief contributors to his campaign
fund? Mr.. Morgan and his co-workers
are not fools.

Rough Rider President Now Speak
ing Soft But Holding Fast to
His Big Stick. L., t,.>1I:IT4NHI

Speaking of Roosevelt's quiescent
state in the campaign, and Of his sup
pressed volubility and inaction, the
Houston TEX Post shouts a note Of
warning when 1t says: e
"Tle country is not to be deceived.
If Mr.. Roosevelt be elected he will
then have the whip handle and the
party managers and the people will be
the cattle he will drive. We have seen
how he smashed all precedent, rode
down all conservative opposition and
scorned all advice i'll his first term, de-
spite the fact that he was seeking the
nomination.
"There is no reason to doubt that,
with q lease of four years in his own
elective right, he will follow his bent
more impulsively and ruthlessly than
he has done for the last three years.
"All the fire he is now smothering
will break loose then, and woe to the
man, the race, the State, the section
or the nation that brooks his imperious
will"

Frank streat, Of Flint, Mich, ex-
President United Commercial Travel
ers. says: 'There is no class of citizens
hurt more by the trusts than the re-
tail storekeepers. First and foremost,
trusts squeeze wages down to a point
where the customers of these stores
have not the means to purchase any
thing more than bare necessities
of life. and In tens Of thousands of
cases not even these. Only the very
cheapest goods are bought, and these
are bought scantily. Children are
scantily clothed. The trusts are the
hideous offspring of the Republican,
p@rty."

TO BE REDEEMED.
Assuring Outlook For Election Re
suits in Maryland.

The Baltimore Herald, an independ-
ent newspaper Of Democratic proclivi-
ties, but which supported the Republi-
can party in 1896 and 1900, has, been
investigating the political situation in
Maryland and finds ample ground for
the belief that five of the six Congress-
ional districts will be carried by the
Democrats. The sixth district has a
very large negro vote and will probab-
ly re-elect the Republican incumbent.
The Herald says there is no more
doubt about Maryland as to Presiden-
tlal preference than there is as to vir-
ginia. 1t looks for a majority for Par
ker considerably in excess Of that CIV

Like Lodge Also.

There is something in the Roosevelt
letter of acceptance which, with all
its rough rider attributes. suggests
the rancous bumptiousness of Henry
Cabot Lodge. The junior Massachu-
sets Senator was among the first of
the stand-patters. He had a way of
answering Democratic inquiries in the
Senate with insolent mannerisms with
Which he asserted I'VE shall do what
we please in Il own good time" He
took the position that the majority
alone was responsible for legislation,
and interference was brazen imperti-
hence. The letter is almost as like
Lodge as Roosevelt. 1t has the AFRO
gance apd contempt Of opposition Of
both. 1t is easy to surmise a collabor-
alton between these two illustrious
friends.

for the transportation of American
cargoes, but he seems afraid to come
out fiat-footed for subsidies as a rem

berry Of the people than is sanctioned

CHATS BY THE Way.

Governor McAIillin, of Tennessee:
"My information leads me to believe
that Judge Parker will be elected Pres
ident of the United States by a good,

To my mind there is no question as to
how the Empire State will go. 1t
looks to me as II this State was as GER
tain to go Democratic as is Maryland.
New Jersey, Connecticut, Illinois and
Indiana are all. so far as l can learn,
more than reasonably certain to cast
their votes for Parker and Davis"
