ticular court, and the appointment is
a Wanton outrage upon the voteless,
volceless residents of the Capitol, as
well as the general public.
On the heels Of this gross blunder
comes the announcement that the
Senate has passed the measure per-
uniting the Brownsville troops to be
re7instated in the service of the army.
1t is all a question Of playing poll
ties with the negro, without regard to
the ultimate and awful consequences.
Members Of the negro regiment at
WatertoWn, n. Y, are not permitted
to enter the town without a pass,
oWlag to the ill-feeling brewing there.
1t IS suspected that a member of this
regiment committed an assault upon
girl in that vicinity. In Pittsburg,
Pa, the negroes have been in defiance
Of the police for months, and the wo-
men are terrorized. In Iowa and
throughout the middle west the same
feeling prevails.
Our brilliant and far-seeing Wash
ln8ton statesmen are rapidly evolving
a civilization which is unable to pro
tect its own Womankind or to remove
the continual provocation to resort to

pick, as so full of human
perversity which would not allow the
status of affairs to remain fixed from
one week to another. One proposed
adjustment no sooner promises defn-
rte peace than some development arises
to put new phase on the matter
And there remain the SHOWS of win

DESTROYS play for time. With the on
coming Of spring, what may be the
outcome? From this distance it seems
but the merest matter of common
sense to adjust it all. Why any of
the nations interested should precipi-
tate war is hard to understand. Yet
the tense feeling is there among the
people. Particularly is this true of
Servla, where perhaps every male
citizen and even many women are un-
der arms, drilling, and expecting the
storm to break. Just that old human
nature which diplomats and powers
may play upon and deceive for time,
is apt to break all bounds so soon as
the maneuvres Of war would be phys
ically possible.

Gen. Luke E. Wright, Of Memphis.
Judge Dickinson was counsel for the
U. S. in the Alaskan boundary case
some years ago. He is known as
"Taft Democrat whatever that
means, but thus far his Appointment
seems to be viewed with mild APP
proval. Gen. Wright denies that he is
likely to be elevated to the Supreme
bench, and stated he will return to
his former practice of law at home.

say Let us see-didn't Roosevelt

CAPTAIN ARRESTED.
One of SpeTry's Chief Officers Accused
of Being Drunk

Gibraltar, Feb. 2.-The captain of
one of the battleships composing the
fleet under Rear Admiral Sperry is to-
day under arrest on board his own
vessel and will be tried by court mar
tial on a charge preferred by one of
the rear admirals of the fleet that he
was under the influence of intoxicants
at reception given on shore few
days ago. This captain was relieved
from duty by the rear admiral i'm
mediately after the reception and the
executive officer was placed in COM
mand. The ship was brought into
Gibraltar by the executive.
Admiral Sperry after considering
the report of the rear admiral decided
the members. The head of the court
is Rear Admiral Seaton Schroeder and
Major Dion Williams of the marine
corps is judge advocate. The court
will meet on board one of the battle
ships tomorrow.
the captain in question denies the
charge. His defense will be that
fatigue was responsible for his ap-
pearance; that he was under a heavy
strain during the last run of his yes
sci on account of rough weather; that
on the day of the reception he had
been on the bridge since 4 o'clock in
anything during the day, and partook
sparingly of the wine served at the
dinner which preceded the reception.
This affair has been kept quiet; but
none the less it has created a painful
impression as it is the first charge pre-
ferred against an officer of high rank
since the beginning of the cruise.
It is expected that the court will
render a decision tomorrow, as only a
few witnesses are to be examined.
The name of the accused officer is
Edward F. Qualtrough, captain of
the battIeship Georgia The charges
were preferred by Rear Admiral
Wainwright, commander of the sec
ond division Of the battleshiD squad
ron. The Georgia is the flagship of
the second division of the fleet.

Mr. Burgess has lived in Topeka
the greater part of his life, his early
boyhood having been spent at his
parents home in North Topeka. For
the past four years he has travelled
for the Smith Drug company of
Atchison and for a number of years
prior to that time was employed in
the drug store of George w. STAINS

of his death. Mr.. Burgess has been
a, member of Topeka lodge of Elks,
