THE CASE OF CRANE.

To the ordinary mind the explana. ficn of Secretary Knox of his remark- able treatment Of Charles R Crane. recently appointed Miniser 10 China. is one Of those explanations tat do not explain
 President Taft and Secretary Knox spent several weeks looking for the right sort of men to represent the gov ernnlene al he pekin court, and. hay. ing found him in the person of Mr Crane, they peni more time persuau. ing him to accept the appointment.
 Then the President gave him cer- tain advice which was in the nature of instructions. while Secretary Knox seemed ao lose interest in him, and the Minister actually had to set out for his post of duty wi bout being able to obtain final ins ructions from the Secretary Of State and being com. pelled to have his ercdantials forward ed to him in san Francisco
 linen. as he was ready to embark for China he received a telegram advising him to return immedia.ely to Washington.
 Arriving there, he was practically discharged, he pretext being that ne had probably inspired a newspaper article appearing in chicago news parer. discussing the recent agree mellt between Japan and China, anu the akitude .of the United States wi,A aelation thereto
 AS matter of fact no names were mentioned in those articlas and its subject matter was practically idents cal wi4h informa.ion that had been secrca .Washingion by newsps pers ocrrespoNdents and widely lis. cussed for weeks in advance of the publication of which complaint was made.
 In his reply to the statement given out by Mr. Knox, the deposed Mlns. ter deAls with the difficulties he ex pegienced in attempting to get ir touch with the State Department, which. immediately after appoiatins him, seemed to withdraw from him aIid to deny him access and the op portuniss for ready communications and consultation
 The unusual manner Of his removal while attempting 10 carry out the suggestions made to him by the President has precipltated an awk. ward situation in hat it seems to place the Secretary Of State in the attitude oi humiliating high officer of the government the oflense for which he was punished being no other than his endeavor to carry oul, to the hest of his understanding the direct suggestions Of the President

we were deliciously served with corn

Mrs. McChapin. Haul-a-board was
heard, and again the Limited was

Dr. Booker T. Washington express
ed himself as much pleased with the
prospects of the West. He was very
optimistic over the future of the race
all over the country. Being himself
a success despite the color handicap,
he has good reason for feeling that
we can succeed if we only will. In
this connection he spoke of the pro-
posal to celebrate the 50th anniver-
sary of the freedom of the race in
1913 by national exposition, which
shall represent our progress since
slavery. The exposition is still an
idea to be worked out, but one that
will be feasible if the majority opinion
of the race favors it. The evil that
we do is widely advertised, but the
good is submerged and the racial iden-
tity of the doer is not commented
upon. Such an exposition would
gather up the contributions which we
have made to civilization in this coun-
try and would be designed to adver-
tise them to the white race as well
as to encourage ourselves.
The people of Colorado and the
West are free to express their opln-
ions of the proposal in the columns

University Gen. Howard stands out
before the civilized world as the in

To us who are special beneficiaries

been profoundly moved by the tidings
of his taking-off.
As president of the Alumni Associa-

memorial meetings in his honor in the

number of Howard men are to be
found. In cases where local Alumni
associations have been organized, l
suggest that meetings be arranged un-
