THE DISMISSAL OF THE
NEGRO TROOPS.

The following is an authentic ac-
count OF the trouble between the peo-
pie OF Brownsville, Texas and the
negro troops, which resulted in the
dismissal OF three companies from the
standing army. The story is from the
pen OF the editor of the Brownsville
Daily News:
Before midnight all business places
were closed and most Of our people re-
tired for the night At half past IL
O'Clock a young peoples party. held in
the house of l.. II. Cowen, broke up and
forty children returned TO their homes.
This house is within fifty yards Of the
GARRISON of Fort Brown. At few min
utes before - o'clock a shot was fired
from the post, apparently a signal, for
Immediately thereafter a volley was
fired and n body of soldiers, from six
teen to twenty-five in number, jumped
the GARRISON wall, brick fence about
three feet high, under a commissioned
officer, whose commands were heard.
rushed into town and continued firing
Unfortunately into the houses Of the
citizens. The shots were fired point
blank TO kill, most OF them at the
height of a man above the floors.
"On their way up the street they en-
countered the chief Of mounted police,
fired volley at him, killing his horse,
and shooting off his right arm at the
elbow. 4 little further they killed
Frank Natus, a barkeeper, who was
rushing TO the rear door of his saloon
TO shut it. The door is in the brick
wall. The murderers halted at the
open door and shot young Natus in
side of the yard. A citizen standing
nearby had bullet through his cloth
ing. Most of the houses along the lines
they took up town were fired at or
into.
"At no time before or after the raid
was shot fired by any citizen of
Brownsville at or toward Fort Brown.
Two shots were fired by policemen as
alarm shots after the firing by the
soldiers commenced. No provocation
of any kind was given.
They fired into our houses wanton-
ly, endangering the lives Of our women
and children. Their officers appeared
TO have no control of them, and con-

TILLMAN.

Senator Tillman made his speech in
Chicago, just the same. Bluff who?
Why, Mayor Dunno. The negroes
worked the rabbit foot on him. all
right. A little putty might strengthen
his backbone. 1t needs it. Some men
may be bluffed by a lot of arrogant
negroes or fool white people, but such
a gang are not looking for a Tillman.
1t has come to pretty pass in this
free country when an American citizen
and United States Senator must ash,
the consent Of lot Of negroes to make
an address, in an American city, par
ticularly when asked to do so bv a
number of leading and prominent
women for a charitable purpose-a
pretty pass, indeed Protests" from
negro conventions and councils against
the actions of white people are becom-
ing frequent Of late. Nothing pleases
them. Even President Roosevelt and
his officials must ask their advice be-
fore taking important steps, or hear a
lot OF protests" afterwards. THEY'LL
learn some sense by and by. Senator
Iillman's speech in Chicago did great
deal OF good. 1t shows who's who IN

AN HONEST MAN.
c plltenporary

The newspapers are making n big
to-do over eX-Mayor Seth Lowe. OF
New York. He sent n check to the
Comptroller for S27 1897 back taxes
which he had withheld from the gov.
eminent through mistake of the as
sesor. When the mistake was discover
eel by Mr.. Lowe the amount was
promptly forwarded to the treasury
Why make a "miration" over such m
act? Has a man any more right tc
cheat the government than he has m
individual? Mr.. Lowe, it seems. was in.
formed that he was exempted. under
the law, from taxes on certain mort
gage of 4OO,000,and after several wears
had passed found out the mistake. anc
promptly made reparation.
1t is difficult to figure how a con
science which will not allow a man e
defraud or steal from an individual
will permit this same man to defraut
the government, and yet it does in
hundreds OF cases, everytime the as.
SCISSOR comes around, and perjury is
added to the crime, too.

The New York World says that 1.-the
North will never consent to the repeal
OF the fifteenth amendment" The
South don't care SO long as the North
attends TO it's own business. The South
is now governed, and always will be,
by it's white people, and getting along
alright. The time will come when the
North will be clamoriDg for the repeal
of said amendment, which has given
them so much trouble, and is likely to
give more.

SHAKE UP THE DRY
BONES.

of our Democratic fellow citizens de-
plore the loss of 'he Ninth District let
them stop their fool primaries, declare
against the poll tax qualification and
shake up the dry bones of worn out
and discredited organization. ''-Poca-
hontas Headlight.
Draw the line at the poll tax qualifl-
cation. So far as putting stop TO the
STOOL primaries, and shaking up" OF
a worn and discredited organization
goes, go on with the shakin', but the
poll tax qualification is ali right. The
only trouble with it is it is not strict
enough. II let's in too many incompe-
tent and unworthy men, while it keeps
out none who really amount to any
thing. The money goes to the schools.
Any man, rs we have often said, who
does not care enough for the educa-
ton OF his children and the welfare Of
the country to contribute $3.50 for its
support, is unworthy a place on the
roll of the citizenship OF this country,
and if the Republicans want TO pay
these poll taxes and swell the Demo
cratic treasury OF the state, let them
do so-the money goes to the schools.
In this way, and this way only, do the
the schools get money out OF "a large
number of the people OF this district
As TO the Gloss of the Ninth Dis
trict," this is really a small matter.
and We'll get it after while. We are
reducing the majority rapidly, and the
Republicans will tire of buying so
many of their own people year after
year.
The payment Of the poll tax should
be futher guarded perhaps, but if its
purchase cannot be stopped by law let
the Republicans keep on buying. The
price of $3.50 is cheap, compared with
former prices. Bascom got the drop
on us little this time, but the future
IS open, and We may get him yet. No,
sir, let the poll tax qualification stand,
win or lose. Few people want to re-
turn to the old plan. Everybody can
vote now who really desires to, and
the DISTINGUISHED are becoming fewer
in number each year.
Let the poll tax stand. From this
source, and the small increase in the
school levy, teachers in Tazewell are
getting better pay, schools are running
for longer terms, except in Maiden
Spring district than ever before. Let
the poll tax alone, dear "Independent"
contemporary.

scribed local remedies, and by const-
antly failing TO cure with local treat
ment, pronounced il incurable. Science
has proven catarrh to be a constitu-

LOCAL SCHOOL is HIGHLY
PRAISED BY INSPECTOR.
Bemidii "Hish" Has Advanced With
Great Rapidly, Says State
Inspector Alton.

George B. Alton of st. Paul, in.
spector of the state high schools,
visited the Bemidji high school IN
his official capacity yesterday
and made a thorough inspection
of the school and the manner il
which it is being conducted BY
Superintendent Ritchie and the
principal, Miss Bright.
Relative to the conditions here
as he found them Mr.. Alton said
"Bemidji has made most excel.
lent progress towards higher
education, and her high school
can boast of advancing more
rapidly than any other high
school in this part of the state.
Bemidji has solved the educa.
tional problem, and you have an
excellent corps of teachers to
work out the more dvanced
schemes of teaching. You are
certainly to be congratulated
