himself with seeking to undo what the
government has done in this respect
without being asked. The duties OF
the secretary of war are clearly de-
fined, and we see no good reason why
he should not at this time address him
self to the discharge of those obliga-
tions in the interest Of peace and the
welfare Of all the people. Another
point in this connection is the fact
that experience has shown that 1t Is
a dangerous thing to direct the affairs
channels at variance with the policy,
principles and established customs Of
the party in power. 1t is not natural
for a true Democrat to advocate Re-
publican principles. Both oil and wa
ter will show resistance even when
mingled together in the same cup. II
a person sits astraddle of a suspended
pole and loses his balance he will more
than likely fall on the wrong side.
Tampering with the established law
Of the land breeds strife. The Negro
wants his rights as a citizen respected
In common with all other citizens. He
does not seek any special legislation
other than that which will apply with
equal force to other persons or races
which live under the flag of our COM
mon country. In the civil war which
was waged primarily to keep the fed
eral government unit and which re-
suited in the freedom Of the enslaved.
Negroes from Africa, Haiti, the West
Indies, Cuba and Santo Domingo as
enlisted soldiers fought bravely in the
federal armies for union and liberty,
and it is not fair at this time to ask
members of his race TO vacate the
country which he helped TO make free.
Lawlessness perpetrated by lawmak-
ers or by those who are sworn to see
that the law is enforced is, to my
mind. treason of the first magnitude.
Race prejudice. strife, anarchy, lynch
ings without regard to race or color,
cause or provocation, will continue in
the United States as long as this gov
ernment fails to assert its power, pun
lsh the perpetrators of such crimes
and until the officers of the law them
selves are made TO obey the law, for
herein lies the whole trouble. Legisla-
tors make or enact laws to be enforced
by those elected by the suffrage of the
people. These elective officers often beg
the question when 1t comes TO enforc-
ing a law which Slterferes with their
own personal likes or dislikes.
Again we say that il is not because
the Negro has failed = make substan-
tial progress or that he is making rap
i'd advancement that causes prejudice
against him, but on account of the de-
PRAYED condition of the mind of those
who wrongfully discriminate against
him TO deal fairly by him.

FIND RICH AUNT AT LAST
Brooklyn Kin Threaten Suit to
Test Aoed Woman's Sanity.

Paterson, N J.. June q (SpeciaD.-Mrs.
Jennie Sloan disappeared from the Flat

IL doing that.
Mrs Sloan was worth 600 when her
husband died a decade ago. She owned q
fine place in Glenwood Road, Fiatbush.
Her relatives knew nothing of her where
abouts after she disappeared. What she
has been doing all these years Is as much
of a mystery to ner family as her disap-
pearance but they have learned that she
married John T. Sanderson, who died a
few years ago.
When Mr.. Harmon and Mrs. Nellie Sloan
called at the TOtowa house they were met
by Albert c. Cannon and his wife, who
offered objections to letting Mrs. Sanderson
get out of their sight. They said Mrs.
Sanderson lived with them and had been
very good to them, and even had decided
the house in which they were living TO
them Moreover, she was a generous
woman, spending money freely among her
neighbors. Mrs. Sloan declared she would
have Mrs Sanderson's sanity inquired into.
She has instructed her counsel to take steps
to have a writ of habeas corpus issued.
