SOUTHERN BLACKS OUT.
Taft Will Not Appoint Negroes to Of
foes in the South.


Chicago March 13.-The passing of
the professional southern negro poll
tician as federal officeholder by right
of color has been made an essential
feature in the proposed policies of
President Taft. Hereafter southern
white republicans will receive the ut
most consideration in filing the big
places in the federal service below
the Mason and Dixon line. The places
which have been allotted to the negro
republicans as a matter Of custom will
goslto northern negroes rather than to
the southern black men.
News of this complete change in adj
ministration policy arrived in Chicago
directly from the White House.
The information was disclosed in
connection with the candidacy Of
Col John R: Marshall, commanding the
Eighth infantry, Illinois national guard
the negro regiment, for the post OF re-
cefver of deeds Of the District of Co
lunbia.
Colonel MarshalTs candidacy has the
tentative backing of Senator Cullom,
and he is seeking the support of the
republican organization leaders In
Chicago as a necessary step to taking
UP the matter officially with Presi-
dent Taft
The statement was made with au-
thority in the afternoon that Senator
Cullom had discussed the proposition
with President Taft and that the pres
ident disclosed his views on the negro

ingly, it is not claimed that Syrup of Figs

why it is the best Of personal and family

president to leave the organization Of
the department entirely In his hands
was gratifying to Mr.. Wickershain,
and he is now carefully considering ohe
future makeup of the department.
Who Will Succeed Aoyt?
It Is probable, however, that he will
not act Immediately. Henry M. Hoyt.
the solicitor general. has handed in his
resignation, but has been asked to re-
main with the department until Mr..
Wickersham can get line ON the
work. When he retires MIR. Hoyt prob
ably will practice law in Washington.
The office of solicitor general is the
most important post Mr. Wickersham
has to fill and there has been good
deal Of speculation as to who Mr..
Hoyts successor will be. Prior to the
hands off" dictum of the president,
Wade H. Ellis, of Ohio. at present as
sistant to the attorney general, doomed
up strongly. Mr.. Ellis Is prominently
connected with republican national poll
ttics. He wrote that part of the re-
publican platform which related to
trusts when that document was pre-
pared at Chicago last June. But the
removal of the department Of Justice
from political influences forces Mr..
Ellis back with the rest Of the herd.
and he will have to take his chances
without the influence he otherwise
might have exerted at the White
House thru his Ohio friends.
To End Friction.
One of the causes Of friction ut the
department of Justice, which Mr.. Wick
ersham will attempt to smooth over, Is
the appointment of special attorneys
by the interstate commerce commits
sion. Perhaps he can not straighten
this out without q change In the exist
Ing laws, but 1t is understood that he
will make the attempt. The friction
arises at times as result OF the efforts
Of the special attorneys Of the cornmis-
sion to carry their own cases to the
courts. They are appointed by the at
torney general, upon designation by the
commission, to carry on special work.
They gather their material. but In
stead OF turning 1t over to the COM
mission for transmission to the httor-
ney general. they frequently so direct
ly to the courts.

Knox Favors Awakening.
Mr.. Taft has told Mr.. Wickersham
to cut loose. The president wants the
department Of justice to amount to
something, for he expects to do great
things thru 1T, and 1t is UP to Mr.
Wickersham to provide a force of legal
talent that will deliver the goods.
This policy was decided upon by
the president after a conference with
Mr.. Wickersham and Secretary Knox
The secretary of state was called Ii
because he is the presidents adviser
in-chief on questions OF administrative
policy and because he was the most
successful attorney general President
Roosevelt had. Mr.. Knox agreed thai
IL Mr.. Wickersham is to meet with
success in the conduct of the affairs
of his department he should have full
swing. He went over soffie Of the de-
tails of the department work to prove
his theory.
