ALBANY, y. Y. June Ex-Governor
Hughes sent to the legislature last
night a special message urging the
passage OF constitutional appOrtion.
ment before the final adjournment.
The governors message as is fol-
lows:
recommend to Your most serious
consideration the importance OF max
ing constitutional apportionment Of
senators and members OF assembly be-
fore the Legislature adjourns.
The necessity Of new apportion-
meht Is obvious. The appOrtionfnent
act OF last year has been set aside.
and it would be not only inconvenient.
but most unjust, I'm view OF the
changes in population. to have an cleo
tion upon the basis Of the apportion-
ment fixed I'm 1895. The alternative Is
TO have a new app0rtionment i'm ac-
cordance with the requirements of the
constitution. and this should be pro-
vided without delay.
lit lis undoubtedly important that the
present session of the legislature
should no longer be- protracted. am
informed that cral hundred bills
have been passed and are awaiting ex-
ecutivc action. and IL is practically i'm
possible that they should be disposed
OF save during the Period allowed for
that purpose after adjournment.
Il present Che matter to You as one
Of paramount public obligation. and I
deem It my duty respectfully to urge
ON immediate response TO the Just de-
mand Of the people OF the state"
Each side seemed disposed to regard
the message as rebuking the obstinacy
of the other.

Is there a man who has read MIS-
tory, who does not realize that this
is the only course for free. patriot
ic people to pursue? His ANALYSIS
of the testimony thus far taken in
the Brownsville investigation does
credit to him. He showed concIu-
sively that the Official lynching by
the War Department headed by Sec
rotary William n Taft and endorsed
and approved by President Theodore
Roosevelt was without justification
or excuse. 1t is evident that any
Republican. Democrat, Prohibition
list or any other member OF any 9TH
er party who approves this treat
ment OF the gallant Twenty-ffth In
fantry will be condemned by the col
ored voters in the northern states.
The fight has just begun. The
treatment OF the colored soldiers by
the citizens OF Brownsville, Texas
was bad enough. but their punish
ment at the hands OF the War De-
Dartment and the President was much
worse. The doctrine OF Furnishing
even the innocent with the guilty is
repugnant to every principle OF A.
merican liberty.
We do not believe that there are
enough colored leaders in the Unit
ed States or white ones either for

please a certain element OF white
folks. who had not been used TO
anything and who from the outlook
Will not learn by experience.
The better class of white people
and the better class OF colored peo-
pie in this state were getting on we'll
together and the close proximity OF
one TO the other did not concern
either II was just as reasonable TO
carry this discrimination 70 the
streets and parks or the city. But
TO the point. Mr. Gordon whose case
was heard in the Police Court last
Wednesday morning contended that
he could be moved only when it was
necessary for a conductor so to DO
and as there were no colored PEG
pie on the seat he occupied at the
time the conductor had no right to
make him move.
IL was recognized at once that il
this position was tsnable then tae

Car law was at an end. for colored
folks. occupying seats IN the forward

boarding the car to fu an Of the oth-
or seats and 20 occupy at least a
portion of the one on which they
were sitting. and then they could
not be made to move unless pro-
visions were made TO give them a.
mother seat.
Justice Crutchheld was not slow
TO see the significance of the arEu-
meut and the usual order To- give
me $1,000" was suspended and DE
took the matter under advisement
for the purpose of consulting emil
neut counsel Mr.. Gordon was REL
presented by Air. Henry Pollard and
ar. James r. Cannon aud the Vir-I
Eiuia Passenger and Power Company
was represented by mr.. Eppa Hum
ton and Capt A. p. Guieon
That the case will De carried Co a
higher court Seems evident If Mr.
Gordon is fined. It Is evident that
pressure is being brought 20 bear
on Mr. Gordon 20 have him retire
from the controversy. But then
how can the President of the Rich
mond Chamber OF Commerce submit
TO q fine and how can Justice Crurch-
field avoid hniug him. IL he is 90 live

These are pertinent questions. III
