LATER DISCLOSURES.

When the discussion in the United
States Senate was under way, those
Senators who were defending the ad-
ministration were careful TO say that
the suspension of the members of
Companies B. c and ID of the TWEEN
ty-fifth Infantry was not visited up
on them as a penalty or as a punish
ment- 1t was realized that to say so
would be to acknowledge that Pres
ident Roosevelt had violated his oath
of office in general and the Consti-
tuition OF the United States In par
ticular.
Article ". of the Constitution of
the United States reads:
No person shall be held to an
swer for capital or otherwise In

The Alexandria, Va Horizon is of
the opinion that the Socialist Party
platform is more liberal in its atti-
tude towards the Negro than is the
Republican Party platform We
have read both and We have reached
another point where we cannot agree
with our able contemporary. II
deals in generalities, while the Re
publican platform is specific. The
most serious charge against the lat
ter instrument is that il does not
mean what IL says and fails to say
what IL means.
The Horizon is supporting Hon.
William ]. Bryan and is calling for
one hundred colored men TO pledge
$4,000 each for the support of the
journal during the campaign.
Messrs. F. II. NJ. Murray. l.. M.

MIR. TAFT AND THE BROWNS.
WILLIE ORDER.

The disafection among the color
ed voters Of this country with refer
ence 20 their relationship TO the Re
publican Party is widespread and ON
nous. Never in the history of the ma
tion has there been so many colored
voters. who are outspoken in their
disapproval OF the attitude and pol
icies OF those leaders. who are now
in control OF the national organiza-
ton. IL will take the ablest colored
men in the country TO even in a meas
ure counterfeit this feeling. II is so
deep and felt by a class of colored
voters that money will not have any
effect upon them. 1t will take argu-
ment. IL must be shown that the
course now being pursued by those
opposing the Party and its leadership
the kindliest races OF people on the
face of the globe
President Roosevelt has shown
contemptuous disregard OF the rights
and privileges Of the Negro and he
has gone over with boots and bag
gage to the enemy" Colored men
Will find more sympathy with the lib
eral elements in the Democratic Par
~ than it will with him. We say
this after a careful review of the sit
uation.
He is turning the Republican Par
~ OF the South over to the Demo-
Gratis just as absolutely as President
Hayes ever did and he seems to be
careless as to the consequences OF his
own actions. He has placed every
colored soldier in the country under
that race discriminating Southerner
Gen. Luke r. Wright, whose blum
ders in the Philippines with refer
ence TO the race question made him
hated from one end OF the Islands
TO the other.
That the Republican managers are
beginning TO scent trouble seems ev-
ident and that this apprehension has
reached President Theodore Roose-
welt at Oyster Bay. New York seems
to be equally evident. What else
can the following authorized publi-
cation mean? Here 1t is:
