Negroes DIafranchIsed.

Mr.. Roots response was in no wise
evaslve or indirect. Recalling the sub
stance of his previous remarks he said
that he had had reference to the voluntary
surrender by the government of the power
to enforce the protection of the suffrage
privileges Of the southern negroes. Facing
Senator Bacon and speaking with great
elaboration, Mr.. Root enumerated the
peonage system, the lynching of negroes
and the Acknowledgement provisions, such
as the grandfather clauses in the consti-
tutlons of many of the southern states, as
some of the things calculated to deprive
the black man of that equal protection
winch the constitution guarantees.
The people of the United states are
willing to told their hands and wish the
southern people Godspeed in working out
their delicate problem so long as they do
so in kindness but II there should be
such oppression as to call for the exercise
of the power Of the United States to
enforce the amendments that power will
be exercised, and 1t ought to be-" he said.
Omaha daily bee., 1911-02-12
bacon Replies.

Mr.. Bacon replied that such questions
as lynchlug and peonage were in no wise
cognate to the subject under consideration.
lie accounted for lynchings on the ground
of severe provocation, which he said de-
prived men of their reason and made
demons Of them. lie found one cause for
them in the scarcity OF population
and to show that this crime is con
fined to no one part of the country
said there had been a lynching in
New York in which the victim was burned
to death. AS for the charge of peonage,
he declared there was no practice in the
south worthy of that name,
Indicating doubt as to Mr.. Root having
had such offenses in mind, Mr.. Bacon said
he was sure the New York senator was
really inveighing against supposed orfenses
against the franchise.
Am 1 correct?' questioned Mr.. Bacon.
Perfectly" responded Mr.. Root. Then
he added:
IF the constitution should be so amended
as to provide for the election Of senators
by direct vote the national government
must retain the power to make those
elections free and unhampered, Without
this privilege the government OF the United
States surrenders the power OF It's own
preservation"
Does the senator contend for the power
OF congress to annul laws now on the
statute books of the states. such as the
grandfather clause?' asked Mr.. Bacon.
/ without the slightest Doubt" said the
/ New Yorker
! We'll" returned the Georgian, the
senator has certainly put US on notice.
| II meant to put you End also the country
on notice" replied Mr. Root speaking with
/ force.
! Replying at some length Mr. Bacon said
that to change the manner OF electing
senators without giving the states control
was a grave risk. Speaking OF the past
experience OF the south he said;
/ II the southern people had not con-
tended heroicaly against conditions which
confronted them, civilization would have
been destroyed in the south and 1t would
have been but short time before it would
/ have been destroyed in the entire nation. "
! After few remarks by Senator Fletcher
OF Florida regarding tie so-C6iled peonage
system Of the south, the incident closed
FOR the day with Senator Borah's decl2ra-
ton that everybody knew perfectly why
the question OF lynching and peonage had
been brought into the controversy.

stir Among Democrats.

When first made the declaration caused
a visible stir on the democratic side OF
the chamber and the feeling was intensi-
fled by the repetition. 1t at once became
manifest that II anything was lacking to
insure opposition by the southern senators
to the resolution It had been supplied by
MIR. Root
Senator Borah, who has charge Of the
measure, charged that the race question
had been dragged into the case for the
purpose Of alternating the minority.
When Mr. Root concluded his speech
about o'clock he left the chamber Mir.
Bacon Immediately expressed q desire for
Specifications regarding the things which
the New York senator had said happen
in the south which ought to call for
federal Intervention, but the demand did
not reach Mr. Root until after Senator
Beveridge had made a formal reply to the
New York senator's speech and the senate
was prepared to adjourn.
Just before o'clock Mr.. Bacon revived
the southern question. Repeating the re-
marks of the New Yorker, Mr. Bacon ad-
dressed himself directly to Mr. Root and
asked: What are the things to which
the senator refefs?"

Elections In south Raises
Heated Discussion.

WASHINGTON. Feb. 11.-Through the
injection OF the race question into the
hitherto comparatively commonplace dis
Cusson in the senate Of the resolution pro
viding for the election OF senators by d.
rect vote Senator Root Of New York and
Senator Bacon Of Georgia Friday lifted that
controversy 10 a plane Of almost sensa-
tional interest.
The incident arose In connection with ex-
tended remarks made by Senator Root in
opposition to the Borah resolution The
New York senator said the national gov
ernmcnt could not afford to barter away
the privilege OF supervising senatorial cleo
lions in the south, If need should arise for
such supervision.
Also in speaking Of the observance Of
the fourteenth and fifteenth amendments
to the constitution he said that from time
to time things happen In the southern
states which should not be permitted by
the states and which should be corrected.
IL not by the states themselves, then by
the national government. Later he took
occasion to emphasize this statement.

COAL MINE DISASTERS FOLLOW
Relation Between Two Is Init
mate According to Meteor
ologist.

Victoria, B. c., Jan. 2A-That
seismis disturbances have important
bearing on coal mine disasters is the
declaration of F. Napier Denison, OF
the Victoria Meteorological office, af-
ter carefully studying the seismologi-
cal records which he has kept the
last eleven years. He says that the
greatest period of earth unrest was
in 1910, the year which saw the
greatest number of colliery disasters
in the worlds history. These records
he believes, may become of great
importance for, when the swing of
the pendulum on the milimetre scale
is greatest, the miners can be warned
of the probable breaking through of
gas. Another interesting develop
ment is that the swing of the pendu-
lum on the millimetre scale has been
continually rising the last eleven
years, showing an increasing earth
unrest, and if this continues, Mr.. Den.
ison believes, greater earthquake dis
asters are likely to occur than the
earth has ever known.
