IS TEXAS Law .SUPREJLE2

A most pertinent editorial on the
act of the government in removing
from here the negro soldiers who
were arrested at Fort Brown on
charge of completely in the outrage
OH Brownsville, is the following
from the San Antonio Gazette:
Are the state courts or the army
supreme in Texas in the enforce
ment of the state laws?
This IS the simple question rails
ed by the latest action of the war
department in ordering that the
negro soldiers charged with murder
a. Brownsville be removed to Fort
Sam Ho 1Ston and it is a question
of the utmost import to the people
of all states in the Union
These negro soldiers were under
arrest on bench warrants issued
by a district judge charging them
with murder. Notwithstanding
this, the war department ordered
the commandant at Fort Brown to
turn them over to the military
authorities at Fort Sam Houston.
This looks very much as if the
war department intended to pro-
tect the accused negroes at any
cost and in defiance of the authori-
y of 4 Texas court.
To avoid a clash the district
Judge revoked the bench warrants.
As a peace measure this was prob
ably wise, but it leaves the ques-
ton open whether Texas is to be
seft free to execute its processes in

THE CALLER SPEAKS FOR
CORPUS CHRISTI.

Commenting or Brownsville
recent trying experience and with
Special reference to the remarks o.
of one of its local contemporaries.
OF The subject, which were SC
insulting to Brownsville, as well
as disappearing the good people
OF Corpus Christi themselves, the
Caller says:
The tragedy at Brownsville has
passed its most acute stage, and
wtile q sense Of wrong rankles il
the hearts of those who have
suffered so much, while we see but
faint hope that the uniformed
thugs who thus furnished the glory
of the American soldier will be
brought to justice, it is better thus
than that the blood of that city 5
best and bravest sons redden
her streets, her women AMI
children exposed to the horrors
of savage warfare, as might
well have been. Unusually
close ties unite the people OF
Brownsville and Corpus Christi.
Though widely separted as society
measures distance, we are near
neighbors in big Southwest Texas.
We are united by ties of mutual
interest and friendship, and through
all this trouble every heart in Cor
pus Christi beat in full sympathy
with the strained and tortured
hearts at Brownsville. So well
understood was this feeling here
that 10 formal expression was deem
ed necessary. Had Brownsville
needed the presence of armed men
most assuredly no place could have
the Corpus Christi con-
tingent in racing for the post of
honor and danger. These things
being so we'll recognized here, it
is rather a painful surprise to learn
that the people of Brownsville are
deeply incensed at and have passed
resolutions bitterly condemning the
idea conveyed by a Corpus Christi
in referring to the
trouble there. For that publication
the Caller does not presume to
speak, but it does speak for the
people of Corpus Christi, and from
its files for the past two weeks our
can CLEAN correct idea
of the feelings of our people with
regard to the Brownsville tragedy.
The foregoing is naturally very
much appreciated by Brownsville.
The Caller IS mistaken, however,
in its understanding that any such
resolutions were adopted by our
citizens. The absurd and insulting
of the sheet referred
to were deemed unworthy of such
notice, considering their source.

is to usurp the supreme authority
/ in this state.
President Roosevelt IS treading
dangerous ground in this Browns
vile affair. The people OF Browns.
vile and of Texas have been mar
velously patient under extreme
provocation, but their patience has
an end. If the state admiuistra-
ton had not acted the part of ST.
pine acquiescence IN whatever the
war department chose to do, this
affair would have been handled by
the state of Texas in no uncertain
manner at the very start.
The Gazette is quite right in its
criticism of the attitude of the state
government in regard to the
brownsville case. Il IS not at all
unlikely that, had this trouble oc-
Cured at any other time than dur
ing the encampment at Austin, the
governor and adjutant general
would have acted more promptly
and independently not only in
sending aid to Brownsville, which
our people vainly sought at Austin,
but also in reseutiug the outrage
by United States soldiers against
the state of Texas, and in demand
ing the promptest measures for the
discovery and punishment of the
criminals. Undoubtedly some half
defined feeling of courtesy due to
the states guests, in the person of
the army officers, aud the United
States soldiery who were particip-
ating in the maneuvers at Austin,
had effect in causing the state Of
fcials to be slow in pressing resent
ment at this gross outrage by
part of the army, and also causing
a greater show of Difference to the
federal authority that the occasion
justified. The result was. instead of
protection being sent to Browns
vile, a company of federal soldiers
was sent, which virtually had the
effect of afording protection" to
the negro soldiers against danger
of attack from the citizens that ex-
listed only in the heated magma
ton of their commanding officer.
Regarding the action of the dis
trict judge, not having been backed
by the state in demanding the sur
render of the prisoners, his act in
revoking the warrants was I'M
doubtedly the wisest thing to do
under the circumstances. While
all must admit that Captain Nc
Donald was entirely within his
rights in insisting upon making
the arrests so long as he held the
warrants, and all must admire the
devotion to duty and courage dis
played by him in his determination
to make the arrests, which he re-
garded as his duty, yet as the
seemed to treaten useless
bloodshed, and as the civil officers
had the word of the government
that the negroes would be held at
Sam Houston, it was undoubtedly
wiser to revoke the warrants.
The Gazette is right, however,
in its assumption that the war
intended to act in de-
fance of the authority of a Texas
court. The orders were to remove
tue prisoners, regardless of war
rants by the civil authorities for
their arrest, and the fact that those
twelve soldiers, who were charged
with murder and conspiracy,
marched through the town to the
train with their guns on their
shoulder and belts filled with am
munitiou, was a bitter humiliation
to our people. The question as to
whether the government did not
violate the rights of the state in
that act is q very pertinent one.
