1t will be a matter of the gray.

1t will be matter OF the grav-
est regret to many of President
Roosevelt's sincerest friends if he
becomes involved in the strike of
the Chicago teamsters, The cir
cumstances attending that strike
bear no analogy to those which at
tended the famous anthracite coal
strike. Then suffering humanity
appealed to the president. Thous.
ands of poor and sick and miser-
able people were threatened with
the hardship and suffering as a re-
suit of the scarcity of fuel, and
even thosh who felt that there was
no legal warrant for the presidents
interference respected and admired
the broad humanity which prompt
ed his course. Now, however, q
totally different situation EXISTS.
The Chicago Transfers Union has
been long noted for the tyrannical
character of its demands and its
conduct, while no lives are at stake
except possibly those of the strik-
ers and of those bystanders who
persist in disobeying police regu-
lations and thus rendering doubly
difficult by their presence the eff
forts of the police to maintain or
der. Of course the president has
not agreed to interfere. He has
merely expressed his willingness
to receive a petition frsm the strik.
ers and that is in accord with his
we'll understood policy of granting
hearing to any citizen of the
United States who appears to have
seriencc grievance fsr which he
cannot obtain redress through the
usual channels. 1t would not oc
casion great surprise to those who
know the president, if were to re-
ply to the position of the striking
Transfers with a severe reprimand
for their conduct: but it would
prove a source of disappointment
and grave regret if his sympathies
should be worked on to an extent
which led him to undertake to set
tie the differences between the
strikers and their employers

The Greenville Banner pays a
beautiful tribute to Southern gen.
eral when it says:
"The death of Gen. Fitzhugh
Lee will bring thrill of sorrow TO
the whole country. To the South
land because he so CALAMITY wore
the gray and battled for the Con,
federacy. To the North because he
afterwards wore the blue and up
held the reunited country against
the Spanish armies. Gen. Lee was
living representative of the union
of the blue and the gray, just as
Gen. Joe Wheeler is now. Gen.
Lee was a brave soldier in what
ever cause he fought His death
will bring sadness to every camp
of Confederates in the country"
