A very few years ago the Increases alone would
have been considered a remarkably good four
months work. Records OF the frame through the
Sault ste. Marie Canal show two thirds going East
and one third going West. Domestic freight to the
extent OF s,4oS,7co tons passed through the Detroit
River In April. About so per cent. Of the Great
Lakes traflc. In tons, was made up OF coal. iron and
copper, perhaps the most important Of our in.
dustrtal "sandbys." Those shipments mean busy
factories and many more well Allied pay envelopes.
which means busy butchers. bakers. grocers
savings banks. real estate men, and all
other lines OF activity. ,

THE NEGRO QUESTION.
A Protest Against Southern Prejudice and
q Plea for Tolerance,


10 THE EDITOR OF H SUN-Sir: The
negro question: IKE Banquo's ghost, will not
down. Sooner or later 1t must be settled In
q sane and logical manner, and without re-
gard 70 the absurd prejudice which has its
FOUNTAIN head IN the south, and which In its
ramlhcations extends to the uttermost con.
] nhes OF the country. Under present condi'
/ tions the United States OF America presents
70 tne world the RIDICULOUS anomaly OF q
nation Which has declared. with bell. book
and candle, that all men are created equal
ana are equally entitled TO the advantages
OF llie, liberty and the pursuit OF happiness.
and yet denies to an element comprising
IL per cent. OF its population all but the bare
essentials TO the dragging out OF q miserable
existence.
We are all' familiar, OF course. with the
antl-nfero line OF reasoning. The negro.

Good American Business.

Gold dust OF the value Of 81. 500, 900. representing
only part Of the winter cleanup at Tanana, Alaska,
was sent this month to the assay office. Pros
pcctors. nlnciS and supplies tAmorcan goods
are pouring Into the Territory. Settlers are also
home stealing. All these will both produce and
want.
The port OF San Pedro. Los Angeles, is shipping
American goods to the Orient. and receiving Orien-
tai goods for use In this country. The steamship
Bessie Dollar. 10000. left Mol. Japan, on May PEI
for San Pedro. with passengers and $500 tons
OF cargo. on the anne day the Steemship Hazel
Dollar left San Francisco heavily laden for the
Orient, and on arrival will load O cargo for San
Pedro, These ships belong to the Dollar Steamship
Company. and these saillngs begin a new service.
The shipping freight agent says: THE rail facilities
OF Los Angeles are superior 10 those OF other coast
cities. and the harbor Of San Pedro, Los Angeles,
Is not excelied," The port will probably also be
the southern terminus OF the S,camships Buchanan
and Watson. 1t Is already doing a Pacific Mexican
business.
Ten years ago the United States was selling
British Australasia $8,0 900 a year. and buying
s4.OOO. oOO a year. Now the figures are $40. ooO, 700
and 81 ooh. 900 respectively. We sell the a~ntlpodes
Iron and steel manufactures. oil. tobacco mostly
plug, paper manufactures. boots and shoes. farm
ing Implements chiefly. We buy Just what We need
namely. raw wool. gums. hides, furS. block tin
and other crude material.
The Alaska Club OF Seattle, a good authority. SAYS
that the gold receipts from the Territory In 1905
will reach s2i,OoO,o 600. an excess Of s~s,OOO.OoO over
1905. Considering that we paid only 81. 200, 600 for
the Territory and that II has paid It's way since,
that gold return In n single year Of nearly three
and one half times the original cost Is remarkably |
American business. to say nothing OF
the many millions we have received In former
years In gold, Ash and furs. The probable pronts
for the future are beyond estimation.
Week ended May %, -four shipments by rail from
Chicago Increased eS,'H barrels over the same
week OF last year; grain shipments increased s2i, 900
bushels, and provisions increased 2.s2o tons.
The same week Lake shipments OF grain were
l,o7? 900 bushels, an increase OF 49,. O0o bushels
over the prior week and 2l,000 bushels more than
the same week OF last year. The -four increase
over last year WINS gle barrels Of a total shipment
OF 1851 barrels.
American commerce on the Great Lakes makes
a new recori for the four months ended April 80
as well as for the single month Of April. For
the month It amounted to 5,sis.+si net tons, = gain
over April, 1905, OF 1854 net tons, according
TO the Bureau OF Statistics. For the four months
the gain WIS l,S1c,6S net tons. The classification
of the four months s%hipments with the Increases
over the same months OF 1905, is as follows:

all over the country, and the general result Is

Fortune OF Empress Eugenie.

II has over and over again been stated Of
late that Princess Ena of B~attenberg will in
herit a large fortune from the Empress Eu-
genie, and one romancing journal announced
that the new Queen OF Spain will receive a dot
of SO. 900, 900 francs from her godmother, a
accepted as a fact by many OF the Spanish
newspapers! .a
The re- fact Is that the fortune Of the
Empress Eugene will be divided at her death,
one-half going to her grand nephew, the Duke
OF Albany, and the other half TO the Princes
Victor and Louis Napoleon.

NOMINATIONS GO OVER.
to Bonaparte Holds Up
Whole List in the Senate.

Washington. Dec. 10.-Opposition to
Charles j. BOnaparte as attorney gen.
eral prevented the confirmation of
William II. Moody as associate justice
of the supreme court of the United
States when his nomination was called
up today in executive session of the
Senate. The objection to Mr.. Bona
parte was based upon a speech made
by him in Chicago in September, 1893
before the conference held there to con-
slider the trust question.
In this speech Mr.. Bonaparte declared
that legislative action in regulation or
restroint of combinations was undesir-
able. When the Moody nomination was
placed before the Senate today, Sena-
tor CulberSon called attention to the
fact that the position he is to vacate
will be filled by Mr.. Bonaparte and lat
then read extracts from the Chicago
speech in support of an argument that
Mr.. Bonaparte is not qualified to TAX;
the responsibility OF enforcing anti
trust laws.
Senator Knox, formerly attorney gen
eral, said he had talked with Mr.. Bon
aparte and had found him thOrOughty
in sympathy with the administration
IN breaking up combinations of capital
which operate in restraint of trade. He
also remarked that probably there were
few men in the Senate chamber whose
minds had not undergone some decide,
change on many great questions since
1899. when conditions were far differ
ent from what they are today.
Senator Rayner started to reply t,
this speech when Vice President Fair
banks observed that the nomination
before the Senate was that OF Mr.
Moody and not Mr.. Ponaparte. 1hi.
| had the effect OF Curtaiing the speech
making, but Senator Teller said tina
it was customary for all nomination
| 10 go over one day after being report
ed from committee and he therefore oh
| jected to further consideration.
