speeches at Republican rallies at Bev-

General Moody said that he was in
vestigating the great and powerful
coal and oil combinations" and that
if he found evidence of Illegal COM
binations he would proceed without
regard to personal or political conse-
quences Moody said:
A few weeks ago Mr.. Bryan said
that the trusts were the paramount
issue. am not quite sure that he is
not right He expressly congratulated
President Roosevelt on the step he had
taken on the enforcement of the anti
trust laws.
We are in the midst of great indus
trial activities and prosperity. Great
evils are arising out of this condition
andSPresident Roosevelt is determined
to remedy it il remedy can be found.
The great industries are no longer
conducted by the individual, but by or
ganized capital. Organized capital in
modern industry is a necessity. The
organization of labor and capital are
here to stay, but we have the right to
ask both that they shall obey the laws
of the land.

of trusts-it is the railroad rebate that

Boston Negro Preacher Scores
Roosevelt and Taft as Enc
mics of Negro
AGAINST NIAGARA MOVEMENT
Claims President Has Been Silent on
the Question Of Enforcement of the
Fifteenth Amendment - Says Ne
sroes Are Beginning to Have Their
Eyes Opened.

Harper's Ferry, w. Va, Aug. Is. -
A vigorous denunciation of President
Roosevelt and Secretary Taft was
made here yesterday by Rev. Reverdy
C. Ransom, Boston negro preacher,
in an address before the second annual
meeting of the Niagara Monument, an
organization of negroes working to
promote race equality.
Mr.. Ransom's address was in the
nature of a tribute to John Brown,
declaring that God sent John Brown
to Harper's Ferry ito be come traitor
to the government in order that he
might be true to the slave" He dis
cussed the political rights of the ne
gro.
The present occupant of the white
house." he said, has been absolutely
silent on the question of the enforce
ment of the fifteenth amendment;
while his secretary Of war. has admit
ted the violation of the constitution,
he has recently in notable address
openly condoned if not tacitly Endorsed
1T. Secretary Taft, speaking for the
president, chides us by saying that
the negroes are political children; that
they have shown their incapacity to
maintain their political rights.
1T is true that the negro had a
childlike faith in the republican party
believing that 1t would administer the
sacred trust which the fortunes of
war and the constitution had imposed
upon 1t and that it would not use him
like gamblers stake in the game of
politics.
'4Thank God, at last the scales are
falling from the Negroes eyes. He Is be-
ing disillusioned by the acts Of re-
publican congress, the speeches of
members Of republican cabinet and
the silence OF a republican president.
He should not hesitate to repudiate his
former friends who have betrayed him
nor refuse to fraternize with former
enemies who are willing to give him
aid. While he remains political issue
he must insist upon making his power
felt and his rights respected"
The feature of the days proceedings
was tribute to the memory of John
Brown, and the celebration of the fif-
tieth anniversary of the battle of Osa-
watomie At o'clock in the morning
the members Of the movement, accom-
panied by number of visitors made
pilgrimage to the John Brown fort.
which is two miles from here. AT the
fort an address was delivered by Rich
ard T. Gillner and the pilgrims march,
