HOPE FOR APPALACHIAN RESERVE.
Plan Devised to Bring the Bill Before the
House Again.
rFrom The Tribune Bureau.l

Washington. April 11--Sorle hope is revived that
the bill 10 create an Appalachian and White Noun
tain forest reserve may be enacted the present
session OF Congress. Representative Henry, OF
Texas and other nc rabers OF the Judiciary Com
rnittee who favor the measure, have devised plan
by which they hope to bring the bill before the
the next meeting Of the comnlitte motion will be
made refer the bill 70 the Committee on Rivers
and Harbors, with the request that II the project
is found necessary preserve navigabe streams it
be reported favorably to the House.
The bin has been for many weeks in the pigeon
holes OF the judiciary Committee. where II was re-
ferred early in the session in order that It's cons-
-1tionality might be passed Mr. Henry be
eves that II will continue in its present moribund
condition unless some action is taken speedily. In
the minds Of several members Of the committee the
whole question hinges the effect such a law
would have on navigsbe streams. as II is held that
II the effect is beneficial the government has the
you1er 70 create such a without infringing
m th. rights OF the states. In the arguments be-
fore the committee many decisions supporting this
mint were cited and the only difficulty which now
oonrronts the committee is the lack OF an author-
tative statement that navigabie streams viii be
affected

prove thoroughly effective, must he supplemented
by state legislation. The great reform that is to

tion OF the last few years must be accomplished
by national and state legislation" He quite
sure he said that any attempt 70 include within

FORAKER TO NEGROES.
Says Their Case VII Be Carried
to the Chicago ConUentiOn.

washington. April 11.-An enthusiastic greeting
was given to Senator Foraker to-day by the Balti-
more Conference Of the African Methodist Episeo-
pal Church, in session here In introducing the
Ohio Senator Bishop Gaines spoke of him as the
friend and defender Of our people"
Senator Foraker said he had been engaged all his
life in preaching the gospel Although" said he
you are engaged as religious men in preaching the
gospel you and / nevertheless are aco-workers in
preaching that morality which makes for good gov
eTnn1enI He referred TO the work Of the Church
in uplifting and making better the black race in
the last forty years and said it has everything
guaranteed TO it except some political rights"
You see" he added II try to stick to my text
but before know II I lose my religion in talking
10 you. lost it when I heard of the butchery at
Atlanta a short while ago. lost it again when I
heard Of the Brownsville affair. l would not have
referred 10 that unhappy blot if you had not in
sisted upon II. And lost II only a few days ago
when read OF the action Of the Virginia Repub-
hcan Convention at Lynchburg that ignored the
delegates Oh your race. I think it was shame
and don't care who knows it. I do not care to
crItcise my party, but I do condemn those who
misrepresent it The question that was raised in
that Virginia convention viii be carried settle
ment TO the next national convention at Chicago.
We will find out there whether the party OF Lin
coin, of Grant and of Mckinley is a Lily White
party. If it is you that there will soon be
new parties in the field which will stand for the
rights Of humanity Religion and that kind Of
politics go hand in hand.
I have been quarrelling with my friends South
for forty years because OF their grandfather
clauses, their prohibition and other heresies. II I
have quarrelled with them Tor forty years I Ger
tatnly have the right quarrel with those who
misrepresent the Republican party. According to
the law the negroes are entitled in Virginia
when the Democrats vote and they are protected
in that right Why. then. have they not the right
10 vote when the Republicans vote? I don't belong
10 party and viii disclain any party that stands

STATEMENT FROM OHIO NEGROES.

Washington. April IA letter addressed to Rep
resentatve Rainey Of Illinois, by Walter S Thonl-
as, chairman Of the Ohio Afro-American League,
was read in the House to-day. AIr. Thomas de-
clares that the negroes Of Ohio refuse TO be led
like dumb driven cattle 10 the voting booths and
there cast their ballots for President Roosevelt,
his Secretary OF War, or any man he may mt
70 support for President OF the United States at
Chicago The letter asserts that a grave tn
justice was done his race in the Brownsville sf-
fair, and states that the negroes will support no
candidate for President who does not stand square
y on the broad principles Of justice. IN concIu-
sion, the letter says:
We have almost reached that point where we can
say thank God for Senator Tulnan, for We believe
him TO be al least honest in his expressions, and
we believe MIN square in his life | am absolutely
convinced OF this one fact, thar should Secretary
Iaft be nominated Chicago for President Of the
United States the colored voters Of Ohio and OF
the whole United States. 95 per cent Of them. at
the least calculation, would cast their votes for
the straight Democratic ticket for President re
main away from the polls, thus making the cleo
ton OF Democratic President absolutely certain.

PAYNE ON ANTITRUST LAW BILL.
WAYS and Means Committee Chairman Un-
certain About It's Operation.

Representative Serene E Payne. chairman Of the
Ways and Means Committee. says that Congress
will adjourn some time in May. At the state con-
vention yesterday, in answer TO questions about
the situation, he said:
Il think the House will adjourn in MAY. There
is still good deal 10 do before We get away. We
have just passed the employers liability bill de-
sired by the President, and the amendment 70 the
Sherman antitrust law has been referred TO com
rnittee. Just when IL will get out Of committee is
a matter Of conjecture said the Representative,
with a smile.
The scope Of the amendment makes IL prob
Ierlatical whether IL would work successfully. II
is sometimes difficult tell whether a trust is
good trust or a bad trust and the aim OF the new
law is 10 give the federal government authority TO
say whether a trust is good bad

No Nature Fake.

You certainly run up against funny
things in the country" said the young
man who had just returned from down
state, where his uncle has a large
farm. "On the way up to my uncle's
house l had to pass the stock yards.
where he kept lot of pigs. AS |
passed those hundreds of pigs seemed
to be having regular stampede or
panic of some kind-they were rush
ing madly about, apparently looking
FOR something. l watched them for
quite while, but could see nothing
but small woodpecker sitting on the
fence. When l got to the house
asked Uncle Jim what on earth was
the matter with the hogs, they seemed
so excited.
THAT so? Well, it was this way
there was a spell back some weeks
when l had bad cold, lost my voice,
and couldn't call those critters to their
feed, so l got the idea of bringin them
TO the trouHhs by tappin' my stick on
the wooden fence, and ever since them
pesky woodpeckers came round the
hogs just go crazy, thinkin' I'm callin
them to give them somethin' to eat :"
