Purdy's Mission Discussed

In some quarters the action OF the Pres
ident i'm sending the assistant 10 the Attor-
ney General, Mr.. Purdy, and a party of
officials 10 Texas 10 secure afidavits and
general evidence regarding the Browns
willie incident. Is regarded as weakening
The administration position.
IF the President was not certain Of
what he was doing, in the light of the
evidence already at hand, why did he 90
% such extreme lengths2" il the question
which is being asked by those who view
the case from that standpoint.
Still another view is that the matter Of
Interference with appointments by Con-
gress, on which the Supreme Court Of the
United States has passed, has no appli-
cation in the present instance. Enlisted
men in the army are not appointed, it Is
pointed out. and the question now pre-
scented Is altogether different from the one
involved in, for instance, the case of Gen
/ Ainsworth. VINO. in an act passed by Con
gress. was appointed 10 d place created
/ BIZ that act. which President Harrison
vetoed.
The Washington herald. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1906-1939, 1906-12-25

President Roosevelt reiterated 10 a Wis
itor yesterday his declaration Of intention
to veto a bill restoring the discharged
negro soldiers If Congress passes such
measure. Also, he let il be clearly under
stood that the programme he will follow
IN the event Congress passes bill Of that
kind over his veto viii be as outlined il
The Washington Herald on Sunday.
Some members Of Congress express he
opinion that if the Presidents attitude
in the premises had been disclosed before
the lawmakers adjourned for the holidays,
OF if it had been postponed until after the
holidays, the Senate and House might
have been disposed to accept the implied
challenge. As it Is, many observers be
lieve that when Congress Ieassembles tae
matter viii have been forgotten TO an ex-
tent which viii minimize the chances OF
any extreme action.
II is thought 10 be extremely unlikely
that a serious effort will be made 10 en-
act "a law restoring the dismissed negroes
20 the service. Congress will do nothing
al all, in the opinion Of most observers
/ The Senate may order an investigation by
/ the Committee on Military Affairs, and
when the investigation is concluded, ;h'
matter will be permitted TO drop.
