FIGHT OYER ARMY PAY.
Unexpected Opposition DeUelops to
Bill for Increases.
(From The Tribune Bureau. ]

Washington, Jan. 9.-The service pay bill en-
crossed the attention of the House Committee on
Military Affairs to-day, but little progress was
made To the surprise of those interested in
the bill many objections were brought up by men,
bers OF the committee and the feeling that a
speedy and favorable report will be made was
somewhat dissipated. The committee will meet
again next Tuesday.
The Senate Committee Military Affairs ordered
q favorable report to-day a bill increasing the
efficiency OF the medical department Of the army
by creating a medical corps and medical reserve
corps. The rank which medical officers shall have
is prescribed in the BILL is also the service which
they shall perform. The medical reserve corps is
to be made up of graduates of reputable schools
of medicine, and is to serve in time of war.

GIBBONS FAvORS HIGH LICENSE.
Cardinal Impressed with Futility of Abso-
lutte Prohibition Laws.
tBy Telegraph to The Tribune.

[By Telegraph to The Tribune
Baltimore. Jan 9.-The impending contest IN
the Legislature over local option, high license
and other means of suppressng or regulating
the liquor traffic has caused Cardinal Gibbons
to come out strongly for high license
Il have always been in favor of high license" p"
said Cardinal Gibbons to-day. In a community
as large as Baltimore l do not consider abso-
lutte prohibition practical for there are so many
ways OF getting around legislation. but the high
liduor license I believe to be the proper solution
of the problem. The high license will do away
with the small grog shops that threw out many
temptations for the poorer class of people. and
with the number of saloons decreased the police
will be better able TO enforce the laws"

cay ALOUD.

In every speech Booker T. Washing
ton continues to harp about the Negro
complaining too much. He complains
that the Negro complains, and in that
his speeches are all SO many self
contradictions. No grievances have
been redressed, no abuses abolished
no outrages. punished without some
very loud and persistent complaints.
Many thousands of years ago the Is
raelites were crying aloud against
transgressions; over six hundred years
ago the barons complained of the us
urpations of monarchy and wrested
from King John the Bill of Rights
which has become the Magma Charta
of the liberties of all the most ad-
vanced governments of the earth. The
greatest political reform of modern
times. the American Revolution, was
based on the Declaration of lndepend-
ence, a document prominently of
complaints so numerous that they
sound like the lamentations of Jere-
miah. The Negro must not complain
of peonage; the Italians do it; the
Negro must not complain of brutal
outrages, the Bulgarians do it; the
Negro must not complain of unjust
disfranchisement, either by fraud, VIC
lence or subterfuge, though COM
plants against even individual dis
reimbursement come from citizens in
every state in the Union. The man
struck is the man to cry out. HE
who would be free himself must strike
the blow"
Yet in spite of all these conspicu-
Gus examples of history, Booker T.
Washington is going up and down the
country telling the Negroes to lay
low and keep dark; not to complain
when they are outraged or beaten: to
grin and bear it.
Such teaching belongs to the Uncle
Tom of the slave period, and such
action if INDUCED in would entirely
unfit the race for the freedom to
which they aspire.
Washington, Taft and their con-
geners should remember that the
Negro is a product of the noblest
work of God" and you could as easily
dam up the Nile with bullrushes" as
repress or suppress the irresistible
longings within the Negro for the full
measure of all the rights and privi-
leges of a man.
Washington may pull the wool over
certain white mems eyes by such SER
vile talk, but the Negro will not be
fooled. for every time he is hit you
will hear his loud protest against
outrage and wrong.-The Advance, st.

SAD END OF JAMES PARKER,
HERO WHO DEFENDED
MCKINLEY.

Before a class of students at the
Jefferson Medical College the body of
lanes B. Parker, Colored, was placed
upon the dissection table Thursday.
Parker was the man who beat Louis
Czolgosz to the ground and disarmed
him after the latter had fired two
shots into the body of President Nc
Kinley at Buffalo, on September 6,
1901. At the time of the Presidents
assassination Parker was a Pullman
car porter.
Like many other heroes of the
present day, Parker died penniless.
His death came almost two weeks
ago at the Philadelphia Hospital,
where he was patient in the insane
department. He was removed to the
West Philadelphia institution several
months ago, after having been picked
up by the police.
AS far as known he had no friends
in this city at the time of his death
and the body was turned over to the
State Anatomical Board. In this way
it came into possession of the college
authorities.
Parker was petted by thousands of
persons in Buffalo. Everybody praised
him. and it was thought for a time,
that his act had saved the Presidents
life Senator Mark Hanna, of Ohio,
presented Parker with a check for
$1,000 in appreciation of his bravery.
Parker was well Droportioned and
was six feet four inches in height
In his earlier days he was employed
as a letter carrier In Atlanta, Ga.
More than a year ago he came to this
city, and the last heard Of him before
his death was his arrest in West
Philadelphia
In speaking of his tussle with Czol-.
gosz, Parker said the assassin fought
like tiger and was one of the most
powerful men he had ever tussled
with.
His brain win be examined by, a
noted a1ienist of the city within the
next few weeks and it is expected
that it win prove one Of the most
interesting studies ever made in
Philadelphia.-The Philadelphia, Pa,

HELM is SUED FOR $4,000.
Congressman Who Shot Negro Made
Defendant in Damage Action.

Washington, April 4-Representa-
tive Thomas Hefiin of Alabama was
to-day made the defendant in a suit
for $4,000 damages filed in the Dis
trict Supreme Court by Louis Lundy,
the Mcgee with whom the representa-
tive had a fight on a street car on
March % last. Lundy alleges the rep
resentative kicked him, slapped him
in the face and with great force
knocked him of the car, shot him. in
fiicting a wound above the left ear
and extending backward TO the top
of his head. and that he sustained
bruises on the body and limbs. The
affair grows out of Mr.. Helms TAX
ing exception TO the Negoe's drink
Ing on street car in the presence of
women. Lundy is represented by
four Negro lawyers.
1t appears il all accounts are true
that Louis Lundy did not attempt to
take a drink of whisky, while on
the street car, and If all reports are
true Congressman Hefin, had been
drinking fighting whisky at the time
he shot Louis Lundy-editor.
