NEGRO TROOPS ALL ExILED.
Taft Orders coIored Resi-
ments 70 Philippines.

Washington, D. c, Jan. s.-(Spe-
cial-)-All Negro troops in the United
States army are to be sent to the Phil
ippines for service. Orders to this eff
feet have been issued by Secretary Taft,
with the full approval of the president.
Three Regiments TO 60.
The regiments affected by the order
issued by Secretary Taft are the Tween
ty-fifth infantry three companies of
which were dismissed on consequence of
the Brownsville affair, and which is
now distributed among Oklahoma posts:
the Twenty-fourth infantry, which is
in the Moro country; the Ninth caval-
~, which is divided up among Forts
Sheridan, Riley, and Leavenworth. and
the Tenth cavalry, which is distributed
among Forts Robinson, D. A. Russell,
and Washable. Regarding the action
taken, Mr.. Taft issued the following
statement:
The present assignment of the Col
ored regiments to the Philippines is
merely for an equal distribution of for
eign service. They have not been there
for four years. 1t now becomes fair to
them and to the other regiments that
they be assigned to the Philippines in
due order.
Foreign service. it should be stated
increases the pay of the men 20 per cent
and counts double time for retirement.
1t was pointed out at the department.
therefore, that the idea that these orders
were prejudicial to the Colored troops
or were made on account of the
Brownsville affair, was utterly absurd"
Sailing Dates arranged
The Twenty-fifth infantry will sail
from San Francisco for Manila on April
5. The Nineteenth infantry, which will
be relieved by the Twenty-ffth, sails
from Manila for home on May Is.
The Tenth cavalry, with the exception
of two troops, will sail on March 5. The
two remaining troops will go on June 5.
The headquarters band and First squad
ron OF the Ninth cavalry, now at Fort
Riley, Kas., three troops of the regiment;
now at Fort Leavenworth, and three
troops now at Fort Sheridan, will de-
part on May 5. This leaves one troop
at Leavenworth and one at Sheridan.
both of which will sail on Aug. 5.
The outgoing regiments will sail as
follows. Twenty-ffth on April, Twenty
sixth on June 5, Thirty-ninth on July 5

THE PEKIN.

In Zululand" which the Pekin is
offering this week is a delightful little
musical comedy by AIDE L. Man with
music by Jordan. Cook and Brymn.
The very capable ]. Ed. Green has
merited great praise in bringing so
much success to this play. Deserving
Of special mention are Harrison Ste
wart as Jack Pot, and afterwards as
the King of Zululand, Lawrence Chen
ault as Prince Marso, lover to Lottie
Grady as the charming belle of Zulu
land, Jerry Mills as Grow, the lawyer
and J. F. Mores as the U. 8. Consul at
Zululand. There is a strong chorus
with plenty Of good music. Special
mention in the music line can safely
be made Of the romantic rendition Of
the little romance vivid De Moon" by
]. F. Mores; the finale Of the End
act king Of Zululand" Is remarkable
in dramatic force. Taken as a whole
the show is possibly the best ever put
on the Pekin stage.

THE REAL WIcKEDNEss Of THE
PRESIDENTS MESSAGE ON
THE RACE QUESTION.

When The Informer perused the De-
troit Free Press last Sunday and saw
the picture of the President and his
persent Cabinet in council at the
White House, and then turned over
another page of the paper and saw the
wife of a Jew that is to be a mem
Der of the Cabinet after Jan. 1, and
further remembering the incidents
brought out in publishing the com
munications between President RoOse-
welt and Bellamy Storer and wife, the
real wickedness Of the Presidents
message to Congress on the race prob
lem very strongly manifested itself to
us.
In his letters to Mrs. Storer the
President stated that he wanted all
classes represented in his Cabinet as
near as may be. To that end he
sought to have a Catholic member Of
the Cabinet appointed, and pursuant
to that idea he has appointed Cath
Ollie, Mr.. Bonaparte, and now he ap-
points a Jew. Surely we have no OBJ
lection to this idea being carried out
by the President of the United States,
and in fact it is a capital idea; but
what is astounding to us is that over
ten millions OF the most faithful citi-
zens Of the country are directed to
watch each other to prevent them
from committing crime, while all 9th.
CT citizens are given the Just recogni-
ton they are entitled to in Cabinet
appointments.
The time is now long since past
since the Negro race should have been
represented in the PRESIDENTS Cabin
ct Of these Unitd States. There are
no more faithful or patriotic citizens
in the whole country than our Negro
citizens, and most emphatically are
there no more representative Ameri-
cans than may be found with the Ne
gro race. Instead Of yielding to the
wishes of the Southern liars who char
acterize us as a race Of criminals, II
President Roosevelt had selected a
Colored gentleman, of whom we have
plenty equally as capable as other
Cabinet officials to fill the high posi-
ton Of adviser to the President, and
in fact some of whom are employed
as such unoficially, we say had he ap-
pointed one Of these to a position IN
his Cabinet, and IL Booker T. Wash
ington, for instance, could be spoken
Of as Secretary of something in the
Presidents Cabinet, 1t would have
done more to lessen crime and inspire
the Negro race with true racial pride
and self-respect begotten of a feeling
OF importance and responsibility that
could be gained In no other manner.
His words therefore acknowledging
the truth of the Southerners' charge
OF bestiality against the Negro race,
Ike two-edged sword cuts both
ways. 1t has greatly retarded our
progress in obtaining our civil and
political rights from q friendly source
on the one hand and furnished our
arch-enemies with a club with which
to beat us down and stiie our ambl.
tons on the other.-The Informer De-
