THURSDAY, APR. 9, 1908.

There is every prospect that
President Roosevelt will send a
special message to Congress in
the not distant future, looking
to the suppression of anarchy in
this country. Some days ago the
Attorney General was instructed
to institute an exhaustive investi-
cation for the purpose of ascer-
tanning if there is sufficient auth
orlty for suppressing anarchy by
the executive branch of the gov
ernment, and it seems further en-
actmentS are necessary 50 that
special message is imminent.
President Roosevelt recommend
ed legislation on this subject in
his annual message of 1901, and
only limited action was taken,
Congress refusing to make dec
laration that anarchy was an Of
fense against the law of nations,
as the message suggested and
declining to provide for the ar
rest and punishment of Ameri-
can citizens protesting it's prin-
ciples. All will concur in the
Judgment that Congress should
take some such steps at the
present time that will seek, at
least, to prevent the recurrence
of such outrageS as that at Un-
ion Square, New York, ard at
Chicago, upon the chief of po-
lice. Such a course need not
and would not violate the liberty
of individual speech or Of the
press, but it would suppress that
license which induces the weak
minded to commit crime.
1t is thoroughly characteristic
Of Secretary Taft that he should
have undertaken the trusteeship
of the Anna T. Jeanes Fund for
the education Of the negro race,
in addition to his multitudinous
duties as head Of the War de-
partment, the oversight of the
Philippines, the supervision of
the digging Of the Panama Canal
and of the affairs in Cuba, to-
gether with the cares that beset
a candidate for the presidency.
However, Mr.. Taft became a
trustee for this fund at the earn
est solicitation of Miss Jeanes,
before he was a candidate for
the presidential n ON ina tion.
This fund Of 81, 900, 900, the a.
Vailable proceeds of which will
be probably about $50, 600 a year,
was set apart by Miss Anna T.
Jeanes, wealthy and philan-
thrOpic Quakeress of Philadel-
phia, to provide rudimentary ed
ucation for the negroes of the
southern states. Mr.. Taft was
one of the first Of the men sug.
gested for trustees by Miss
Jeanes, her selections being guild
ed by a desire to place the ad-
mlnistratiOn Of the fund in the
hands of men whose executive
and practical knowledge would
guarantee that the money would
be wisely expended and whose |
sympathies were known to be |
firmly and sincerely enlisted in
the uplifting Of the negroes.
