WHAT PRESIDENT MEANT.
Would Use Troops Only to Protect Jap
nnese From Violence.

Washington, Dec. 5,-The California
delegation in congress has received
what they consider satisfactory assur-
ance that the president did not desire
to be understood as saying in the Jap
anese section of his message that he
would use the military force of the
United States in forcing Japanese in
to the California schools, in which
white children are taught 1t Is said
to have been his purpose to convey
the idea that he would use the mill
tary to protect Japanese against mob
violence. Californlans take no offense
at this Interpretation of the message,
and agree that the chief executive
should do everything in his power to
protect Japanese, as well as all other
foreigners against violence

In His Annual Report the Secretary of
War Dcvotes Considerable Space in
Defense of the Discharge OF the Bat-
talion--Severe in His Condemnation
of the On-CommisslOned Officers
Comradeship Should Not Prevent
Telling of Truth.
Washington, Dec SIN his annual

cradle space to a defense and explana-
tion of the course of the war depart
ment in connection with the discharge
without honor from the military SER
vice Of the battalion Of the Twenty

Brownsville, Texas, last summer. The
secretary details the events az the
night of August 13, involving the
shooting up of the town" of Browns
vile by anywhere from nine to twen-
ty members of this battalion. He is
very severe in his condemnation of the
non-commissloned ofiicen Of the bat
TALON for failing to discover and re-
port the perpetrators of the outrage
and of the enlisted men of the battal-
ion, who, by maintaining silence when,
as he says, they must have known the
guilty parties, connived at the crime.
He insists that no obligation of com
radeship should prevent the men from
telling the truth but indicates that
such of the men as are guiltless may
be re-enlisted.

Washington, Dec. 5.-The house to-
day, waiting on the report of the ap-
preparation bills, began its legislative
grind by passing three measures:
Incorporating the National German
American alliance, authorizing the Sec
cretary of the treasury to duplicate gold
certificates in lieu of ones lost or de-
stroyed, and the bill amending the ma
tional banking laws, permitting Ma
tional Banking associations to make
loans on real estate as security and lin
iting the amount of such loans.
The banking bill has been one of the
vests favorite measures, and the lead
ers in the house from that section lined
up generally in favor Of the legislation,
which, it was asserted would go far to-
ward popularizing the national banks.
The opponents of the bill, democratic
and republican, insisted that real es-
tate was not proper security for a
loan, even though limit was placed
on the loan. The advocates of the
measure were too strong, however, and
the bill was passed. to /.
Representative Hill of Connecticut
took the position that the bill had not
been asked for by many national banks,
and expressed the opinion that it was
a dangerous precedent to establish.
The brief session of the senate to-day
resulted in the introduction of many
bills, resolutions, petitions and memori-

HOW GEN. WHEELER
 MADE HIMSELF KNOWN
Private James (. GOOdwin's Meeting
 With the Famous Warrior.

Private James c. Goodwin of the Rough Riders bears the distinction Of being the only man in this part of the world to whom the late General Joseph Wheeler ever had to introduce himself It happened at Tampa. Florida, in the perilous days of the Cuban war before the tide was turned by the successful charge up the heights of San Juan.
 A train filled with soldiers of the First Volunteer Cavalry had drawn into Tampa. It was feared that the Rough Riders would detrain without authority, and Private Goodwin and several other trusted members of the organization were stationed along the platforms, armed and instructed to see that no one left the cars without au- thority.
 Private GOOdwin's attention was at length attracted by the chatter of horses feet and a body of cavalry rode towards him and came to a stop. The leader a little gray man in blue saluted and said: "I am General Joe Wheeler, and would like to see General Wood" Private Goodwin replied that he was Private James c. Goodwin and would endeavOr to arrange a friendly con ference between General Wood and General Wheeler. It was done.
 MT. Goodwin said that he had a pleasant sensation when he saw tne famous Confederate cavalry leader in his old age clad in blue and serving g under the stars and stripes.

A zephyr, refreshing and cool, Came waiting the incense of sweet
 muscatel That sparlued in many a pool. My senses were soothed by the soft,
 purling song Of a brooklet of pousse cafe, That rippled along over pebbles of To a river of absinthe frappe. Then lulled by the music of tinkling
 glass From the schooners that danced on
 the deep. I dreamily slipped a high-ball or two, And languidly floated to sleep. And then I awoke on k bed full of
 rocks With a bolster as hard as a brick, A wrench in my neck, a rack in my
 head. And a stomach detestably sick. With sand in my eyes and grit in my
 throat Where the taste of last evening still
 clung, And felt a bath towel stuffed into my
 mouth, Which I afterward found was my
 tongue. And I groped for the thread of the evening before, In a mystified maze of my brain, Until a great light burst upon me at
 last I'm off of the wagon again!

Life Insurance Policies.

The national insurance convention which adjourned yesterday recom- mended, among other things. state leg islation, requiring that all life insur- ance policies shall be standard in form. This would greatly simplify the business of soliciting so that it might be carried on by mail or by slot mach inc process.
 The convention might have gone a step farther and recommended sim plicity of form for policies. The pres ent policies are so confusingIy aIIuring that the assured seldom knows pre- cisely how he stands with relation to the company until at the end of the fifteen or twenty year period at which he was led to believe that the company would divide the surplus and various other funds with him he discovers that he misunderstood the enthusiastic agent.
 If the insured is so fortunate as to die before the maturity" of his policy. he goes down to his grave in that peace and bIissfulness which some llIneS come or ignorance. His family brought into possession of the money is unmindfuI whether the policy would have been paid at the end of twenty years or have been merely paid up" Any question on that point is set at rest by the premature maturity by death of the policy.
 It is stated by those who have look ed into the matter that a majority of those who buy life insurance policies do not get what they think they do. They have not necessarily been de- ceived by dishonest solicitors. They merely grasp too much of his explana- tion of the terms of the policy. The policy itself might be made more self explanatory.

PHoENIx. ARIZONA. FEB. 3. 1906
The Postal Business In New Mexico.

We usually find interest and instruc- tion in the observations of our con temporary, the Albuquerque Citizen, which has now discovered that the postal business of this country is not managed as a business man would manage it. The observation might be extended to cover all business at tempted by the government. The Citi- zen finds that $15,OO0.OOO a year is wasted in the rural carrier service alone and that all of it might be saved if the government would consent to combine the freight and drayage busi- ness with the rural service.
 There are two sides of this matter and both of them have been long and widely discussed without satisfactory result. The thing most in mind now is the statement of the. Citizen that the postal business is running behind and that there is a lack of business Judgment in having man and a horse to lug around twenty pounds of mail matter a day.
 But We fear that the Citizens horf- zon all lies within the territory of New Mexico. Not long ago We printed figures from the report of the auditor of the postoffice department in which 1t appeared that New Mexico. instead of being a liberal patron of the post office department stood rather in the light of a boycotter of it. The postal business of that territory was very much run down at the heel. From those figures it did not seem that the carriers of that territory could have collected and delivered even as much as twenty pounds of mail a day. Ac- cording to the showing made by New Mexico on the books of the department 1t Is not wondered that the Citizen should desire to supplement the rural delivery service by the freight and drayage business. The New Mexican carriers might even have been set by the department to planting and tend ing crops along their routes.
 There is a different situation in this territory, especially in the or the Salt River Valley. The carriers AieAN ebOuA all they call QO 10 ulSIri~ bute and collect mail and we believe the receipts of the government from the rural routes fairly meet the ex- penses. Perhaps there is a slight bal ance on the wrong side but it can not be great. The postal system has never been profitable and it was never expected that 1t would be. The ser. vice Is one of the beneficences of the government to the people. If howeve. the postoffice business found nc greater encouragement in any part or the system than it receives from New Mexico 1t would have to put up its shutters. In this view of the case no complaint should be heard from New Mexico of all regions.
