THE NEGRO
A FOOTBALL
Mr.. B0rdh Den0ulCeS The
North's Use Of Him
DIRECT. VOTE RESOLUTION
Iowa Senator's Opposition
to the Sutherland Amend
ment, Which He Believes
Intended to Alternate Sup
port of Southern Senators

Washington. Feb. 16-That the pre-
l j9iice against the negro was just as
| intense in the north as in the south
and that the north plays the hypOcrite
in it's contentious to the contrary. was
boldly and bluntly asserted in the SEN
ate today by Senator BOrah. Of Idaho
Mr. Borah's declaration regarding the
negro was made at the close Of a pro-
longed speech in opposition to the
Sutherland amendment To he resolu-
ton providing for the election of SEN
ators by a popular vote.
The amendment would have the eff
feet OF giving congress control over
senatorial elections. The Idaho sen
atOr's prOnOuncement on the race ques-
ton was made in response to a recent
assertion by Senator Root that with
out the Sutherland provision the reso-
luton would deprive the southern ne
grOes of federal protection i'm the ex-
ercise Of the franchise. M BOrah
dissented from the New York senator's
view and in doing so used the language
which elected congratulations from
many senators.
Notwithstanding Mr.. BOrah's notice
that he would ask the senate To sit
today until a vote could be reached on
the resolution, the proceedings were
confined to his own discussion of the
question. He succeeded however, in
getting a concession that the resOlu-
ton should be taken up tomorrow after
routine business.
Mr.. Borah contended that the resolu-
tiOn as it now stands. gives the state
10 iCl for ia1
elections. and the legislature still would
have the right to interfere for the pro-
lection of any citizen whose right O
franchise had been interfcrred with.
The Idaho senator expressed deep re-
greet that the race question had been
brought into the controversy and he
asserted that its introduction was in
tended only to imperil the resolution.
Il wonder how long the north is go
ing to play the hypocrite and moral
on this question:" he said. He
insisted that a call of the roll of the
northern states in which there was an
appreciate number of negroes would
demonstrate that the north had not
dealt more lenientily with the negro
than had other sections.
The northern states have exhibited
the same race prejudice that has been
shown elsewhere" he asserted. I'm
the north we burn the negro at the
stake and there. as in other sections.
we have our race wars. We push our
negroes to the outer edge of the indus
trial world. We exhibit the same pre-
judice. the same weakness and the
same intolerance that is apparent in
the SOUTH
In conclusion he said: The negro
has been used as a political football
about as long Os our own sense of
1eeency and his developing intelligence |
will permit"

Oceans

Washington, Feb. 16.-Amer:can in
genuity and effort should be concen-
trated to prevent the commerce of the

canal, in the opinion of w. James
Porch, who addressed the Pan Ameri-
can commercial conference today on
behalf of the Progressive Union. the
board of trade, and the Merchants and
Manufact urers' Association of New

Mr.. Porch referred to the project of
the japanese to build vessels TO trans
port goods directly from the Atlantic
coast of the United States via the Pan
anna canal to the Orient and likewise
from the Pacific coast of this country
to Europe and South America. He de-
clared that the charge that the Ameri-
cans could not build steamships as
cheaply as foreign countries was not
true.
Excitement was develop d early in
the day by the remarks of Francis j.
Low of New York who read an affi-
davit charging that the bureau of sta
tistics of the Department of Commerce
and Labor was giving out misleading
statistics on the export trade of the
United States.
o. p. Austin, chief of the bureau of
statistics, denied the charges and a

the Heels of a Hero.

Arkansas. speaking in the general de-
bate on the naval appropriation bill
in the house. tonight made an attack
upon Commander Peary, denouncing
him as a fakir and declaring that he
had been driven from the naval SER
vice.
The bitter words used by Macon
called out a quick reply from Peary's
friends. Mr.. Moore of Pennsylvania,
after vainly attempting to interrupt
Macon, finally got the floor in his own
right. He characterized MacOn's at
tack as unjust, outrageous and Of
fensive"
He said that always some one would
be found to suspect every PERFORM
ance by men of genius and courage.
He referred to HObsOn's exploit with
the Merrimac and Dewey's victory at
Manila bay. Heroes like these, said
Mr.. Moore. have not time to stop and
deal with every dog that barks at
their heels"
Macon, who evoked laughter in the
house several days ago by announcing
that using the language "wilful. DELHI
crate liar dirty little pilferer of
words" and contemplate little ass"
he had gone as far as Fellowship in
the Methodist church permitted" add
ed some new phrases to the history
of debates in the house tonight.
He declared that Peary's whole
story was fake. pure and simple
He said he had a contempt for fake
heroes" and he intimated that he put
THE hero of San Juan hilP' in that
class. Macon denounced the Peary
Arctic club and charged that it main
tanned a paid lobby at Washington.
He said that President Taft's judg-
ment in the matter could not be &C
for he had congratulated Cook
as heartily as Peary.
Paying his compliments to the edi-
tors of the New York Times and the
New York Evening Post. Macon char
acteriZed them as "unblushing, know
all tidbits and pea-eyed. pin-headed.
putrid- tongued infinitesimals."
He referred to Peary as FUR
trader" and pictured him as self
self-opiniOnated, up
near-hero." and he finally denounced
him as an "unfaithful servant. an idle
Ioafer. who ought to be driven from
the service instead of being promoted.

case of Pantchenko on account of ex-
tenuating circumstances.
De Lassey was sentenced To penal
servitude for life, and Pantchenko to
fifteen years imprisonment

est and developed startling testimony.

which he accused de Lassy Of hiring
him to poison Count Vassili. the heir
To Gen. Bouturlin's millions.
DeLassy's wife is the daughter of
Gen. Bourturlin and the removal of
Vassili would let the generals estate
go TO his daughter. on the witness
stand Pantchenko denied his confess
sion and made many erratic state
ments until il came to be thought
that he was insane. Much evidence
was adduced. however TO show that
he and deLassy were intimate in their
dealings. and at the end of the trial
deLassy was overcome He attempted
20 make a speech to the jury but
ended abruptly, saying: II cannot
talk. / leave the fate of myself and
my relatives in your minds and your
hearts"
Pantchenko. in an incoherent speech
said that he did not repudiate his con-
fession but he wished to verify his de-
gree of guilt. He said that the ques-
ton now was whether a Russian ply
stefan was capable Of such dastardly
crime. To this he proudly answered
no. Petropavolosky, he declared was
wishing fame. and as author of the
poisoning story i'm the newspaper it

DeJassy did not expect me to pOis-
on Bouturlin." continued Pantchenko,

poisoned him, told the magistrate so.
But this confession seemed too little
for him. Continually he drummed in
my ears to confess and suggested
