HoNoRs EoR A NEGRO.

When the grand parade of the
Grand Army of the Republic passes
along the streets of Denver next sum
mer a negro will ride at its head. For
the first time in the history of the or
ganization a negro has been elected
a department commander. This hon
or has been conferred upon James II.

Of Massachusetts. By an unwritter
law Of the Grand Army the annual
parade is led by the department from
which comes the commander in chief

ers of posts composed almost exclu'
sively of white men. He is also the
first man of his race to be appointed
on the staff of a commander-in-chief
Color has not figured in the part
which Commander Wolff has played
in the organization of veterans in
which he now holds high rank. The
men with whom he fought through
the awful days of the sixties did not
deny him a place in their serried
ranks because he was black; and
those same men, forty years later
find color as unimportant a factor in
peace as they found it in war. Com
mander Wolff has won for himself al
enviable position in Boston's profes
SIGNAL circles, being a prominent ant
successful lawyer. His life recort
has been an honorable one, such as
to entitle him to the high place he
now occupies.

U OF REVISION

William F. Draper, former congress,
man and n time minister to Italy,
devotes much space to a discussion
of tariff revision and the results
which, in his opinion, would come
of a general revision Of the duty
schedules, in an article published in
a current magazine. Mr.. Diapers
views are set forth IN the following
paragraphs:
ct would cause commercial depres-
sion while being made.
1T would lessen our general pros,
perity after it was made.
1T would lower the wages of labor.
ut would not aid in solving the
trust problem.
"The clamor, such as there is, is
really not for a general revision, but
for a reduction in certain schedules
and might be easier to consider and
act upon if there was agreement on
the schedules to be reduced. I have
discussed this question with business
men from all sections of the country
and have been unable to find any
strong sentiment for general revis
ion, though it is not difficult to find
men who favor reductions that would
seem of advantage 10 them individu
ally if no other changes were made.
A few New Englanders Qike Govern
or Douglas) ask for free hides and
free coal, or, like Mr.. Foss, for free
iron and free agricultural products
The westerner might favor lower du'
ties on manufactured goods, If there
were no reduction on goods that com,
pete with his section. The south
erners would be satisfied with q
general reduction, outside of those
engaged in some industry that needs
protection, and there they stand pat
Short sighted manufacturers may
clamor for free raw material in their
special lines, but the producers OF
so called raw material feel that il

LACEY ON THE RATE BILL.

The Congressional Record publish
ed in full the speech made by Major
Lacey on the Rate Bill, which recently
passed the House. Copies OF the Rec
ord have reached his constituents here
and the text of his talk has proven of
interest to all. Mr.. Lacey points out
several flaws in the bill, but In the
main supported the measure heartily.
Among other things he said:
"For ten years under the Interstate
commerce law 1t was generally believ-
ed by the railroad companies and by
the people that the right to fix a rate
by the commission after the railroad
rates had been held to be unjust or
discriminatory existed.
"The law worked better then than 1t
did afterwards. 1t did not confiscate
anybody's property. It created no very
serious disturbance in the affairs OF
carriers and shippers. The PROPOSE
ton now is to give or restore to that
commission the power that it vas held
was not embodied in the old interstate
commerce law. That Is practically all
there is in this bill. " = /"
"The committee having this matter
in charge has been earnestly working
from the first day of the present con
gress trying to get a bill in form upon
which they could agree and which
could receive a favorable action of the
House. / intend to vote for the meas
ure as proposed by them and in the
form in which it received the endorse
ment of the republican party. Every
man upon this floor no doubt has had
his ideas as to some particular point
in which the bill might be modified
and at the same time improved. Our
legislative experience has taught us
that all legislation must be the result
of more or less mutual concession. In
this bill it is provided that the sche-
dulles can be changed by the commits
sion pending an appeal upon a re-
view," but not afterwards. That in,
wolves a difficulty of administration.
The Oskaloosa herald., 1905-03-09

These are but a few OF the inter
national and internal events with
which the president was connected
during his first term. Important as
they were, probably there was no
one incident that made the presi-
dent more personally popular with
the masses Of the people than his
interference in the great anthracite
coal strike Of 1902. Starting in the
Pennsylvania coal fields May 10 OF
that year, the strike lasted more
than five months and caused wide
spread suffering, the closing of
many factories and the loss of mil
lions Of money. The situation was
becoming intolerable, when, on DC,
tober l, the president offered his
good offices to end the strike. He
got the representatives of both the
miners and the operators together
at the white house to discuss the
trouble, and finally, after two weeks
Of conferences, induced them to re
fer their dispute to the arbitration
of a commission which he appoint.
ed. The coal blockade was at once
lifted, and the business of the coun
try resumed its former channels.
On the presidents earlier history
1t is unnecessary to dwell. A puny
child, by careful training he grew to
possess a vigorous body and equally
vigorous mind. He graduated from
Harvard in 1880 and became a mem.
Der of the New York state assembly
two years later. During the three
years that he served in that body
he took a prominent part in the pas.
sage Of certain reform laws. In
1886 he was the Republican candi.
date for mayor Of New York City,
but was beaten at the polls. Three
years later, President Harrison, at,
tracted by his activity as a reformer
in politics, made him head of the
United States Civil Service Com.
mission, and for the next six years
he waged such a vigorous war on
the spoilmongers as to attract more
than national attention. The bene-
fits of the civil service laws we're ex.
tended oyer 10000 government oflc.
es during his term as commissioner.
In 1895 Roosevelt became presi.
dent of the board " police commits.
sioners Of New York City. By fear
less and strict enforcement of the
law he succeeded in making him
self the worst hated man in New
York among the law breaking ele.
ment and among habitual strikers
Of duty. Coming back to Washing
ton at the beginning of President
McKinley's first administration as
assistant secretary of the navy, he
set about Sharpening the tools OF
the navy" rs he termed it. His
open activity in preparing the navy
for fighting at a time when rela-
tions, with Spain were already
| strained caused some CONSERVATION
among his superior officers, but he
made Dewey's victory at Manila
possible by sending him the neces'
sary ammunition in time.
Elected with Mckinley, he presid.
ed as vice presidnt over the short
session Of the senate following the
Inauguration, and on SEPTEMBER IA,
1901, following the death of Presi-
dent Mckinley, by the hand Of the
assassin Czolgosz, he became chief
magistrate.
