WHAT WILL ROOSEVELT D0'

What will President Roosevelt do In
the event that the Senate Committee
on Military Affairs, which is investi-
eating the alleged raid upon Browns
vile by colored troops, bring in a YER
dict declaring the soldiers innocent?
Will he have the courage to rescind
his unprecedented order OF dismissal
without honor or will he set his own
judgment against that Of the Commit.
tee and with the tenacity of a fanatic
maintain his position, no matter what
the consequences, as 1t was intimated
he would do when it was first pro-
posed that the Senate investigate the
affair.
The Committee on Military Affairs
is composed Of Messrs. Francis E.
Warren, of Wyoming; Nathan B.
Scott, of West Virginia; Joseph B.
Foraker, Ohio; Henry c. Lodge, Mas
s%achusetts; James A. Hemenway, In
diana; M. G. Buckley, Connecticut;
William Warren, Missouri; Chas. w.
Fulton, Oregon; James B. Frazier,
Tennessee; Lee s. Overman, N. Caro-
lima; E.. W. Pettus, Alabama; James
P. Taliaferro, Florida; Murphy ]. Eos
ter, Louisiana. A majority Of these
senators endorse but not in toto the
action Of the President. Hence 1t
would be reasonable to expect that as
far as they can consistently do so,
they will bring in a verdict in accord
with Mr.. Roosevelt's wishes. But If,
after hearing the evidence from
Brownsville's point Of view the Com
mittee should declare that they found
the soldiers blameless, would Mr..
Roosevelt rise to the dignity Of a man
who believes in a square deal" and
make amends for his rash actions in
the case?
President Roosevelt has antagon-
lied more different classes Of men and
more different sections Of the country
than probably any other man who has
ever occupied the executive chair Of
our government. The Crum appoint
ment, the Indianola postoflce affair
the Booker Washington incident
made the South furious; the discharge
of Bookbinder Miller and the theatri
cal declaration that the Government
Printing office was an open shop ruff
fed the feelings Of organized labor
his position on the San francisco
school question caused the volatile
passions Of the citizens of the Pacific
Coast to explode; his activity in thu
legislation for the regulation OF rail
way rates and for pure food estrangeC
capital; his periodic intimation tina
he favors a revision OF the tariff, ha
kent the East continually in a per
turbed state; the unceremOnious dis
charge of the black battalion so ae

the masses have had confidence that
though erratic and impulsive, Mr..
Roosevelt's purposes have been those
of an honest man. If the Senate Com
mittee finds insufficient evidence to
support his actions, will this honesty
of purpose prompt him to do what all
honest men do when they find they
have made a mistake-make amends?

The late MI. Vanderbilt, the railway
colossus of his day, is reported to
have said "The public be damned"
when warned as to the opinion of the
public concerning certain acts of his.
E. H. Hartman, who occupies about
the same position to the railroads of
to-day that Vanderbilt did to those of
his day, said recently that the rail
roads must take the public into their
confidence If they would succeed,
How like Vanderbilt are many Of the

THE PENRoSE CoURT-MARTIAL.

The verdict of the court martial
which tried Major Penrose, OF the
Twenty-ffth Infantry, on the charge of
neglect Of duty in connection with the
,lleged raid upon Brownsville, is in
consistent with the regulations which
obtain in the army, Ma. Penrose Is
innocent of the charges, but the men
IRE guilty of shooting up" the town
Of Brownsville, is the verdict of the
court martial,
II the men be guilty Of the raid,
then the officers who had them in
charge and whose duty It Is to see that
their men preserve the peace, are re-
sponsible for their actions. These
officers have a~utocratic powers for the
enforcement Of discipline and II, with
these powers, they could not prevent
lat least a dozen men" from firing
thirty or forty shots from four guns,
as the microscopic tests made by the
Wal Department show to have been
the case, two of which guns at the
time of the raid were in n%ailed-down
boxes beneath iron cots in the store
house of the post-if they could
not ferret out the perpetrators of this
black and shameful deed, then they
would seem to us to be guilty Of wilful
and inexcusable neglect Of duty. If
Penrose is innocent of neglect of duty,
.and we believe he Is, then the black
battalion is innocent Of wilfully and
maliciously shooting up Brownsville.

Didn't Get Il.

The Enterprise scribe was in Du-
luth the first of the week, being one
of the bidders for the county print
ing for the ensuing year, but al
though our bid skinned some of
the Duluth bunch we failed to land,
the contract going to the Christie
Lithograph & Printing company.
Five bids were submitted, the
figure in total being as follows:
Christie Lithograph & Printing
company, $3979.65; A. E. Pfremmer,
$4198.05; W. E. Hannaford, $4271 10;
Trade News, $4435.15; O. F. Collier,
$4528.4O.
The official publishing for the
county was divided between the
two Duluth dailies, at legal rates,
the law not permitting of considera-
ton of bids for such work from any
newspaper outside the county seat.
The range press, however, will en-
deavor to have this law, which is
a radically unjust measure, 80
amended as to permit of such pub
locations in the weekly press of the
county which furnishes the news
for the great percentage of the
county's population.
Will I'M estigate Nine Inspector.
At the meeting of the board of
county commissioners at Duluth
on Tuesday the board inquired into
charges of incompetency recently
made against Mine Inspector Har-
vey bya Duluth attorney, who in
an address to jury contended Mr..
Harvey inspected the various prop
critics by an occasional visit to the
mine Office.
Mr.. Harvey was present at the
meeting by request, and denied the
charges. He stated that he had
been employed in and about mines
since he was twelve years of age,
and had held practically every po-
sition around a mine from water
boy to superintendent. He declared
that he made regular trips through
the various mines, and that when
aught of dangerous nature was
noted proper notification was serv-
ed upon the superintendent. He
courted a thorough investigation
of the conduct of his Office, and
committee from the board will
make such investigation before the
February meeting.
