"RIDING" WOOD.

It seems the war department is en- deavoring to make things as uncom- fortable as possible for Major Gen. eral Leonard Wood. Not only was General Wood kept out of the war and compelled to stay in the United States, but the postwar duty that recently has been wished" on him is an unusual one.
 General Wood has been placed in charge of the troops who constitute the military occupation of Gary. Such an action is unprecedented. A captain, a major or a colonel at most generally is given such an assign ment, but the war department has put Wood on it and there's nothing for Wood to do but obey orders or resign. Strike duty is about as unpopular a thing as could be assigned to an off cer.
 Can it be that the war department heads believe that in placing General Wood in charge of the Gary strike situation, they will lessen his popu- larity with the people? It can be. Moreover, it is, it seems.

Hines Outlines
 Railway Problems

Topeka, Kan, Oct. 13.-The nu- merous problems confronting the railroad administration are out lined in a long telegram received to- day at the general offices of the Santa Fe Railway company here from Walker D. Hines, general di- rector. Abnormally heavy traffic, doubtful conditions requiring con- servative improvements and labor troubles have combined to create the present congestion, the message said.
 He stated the wheat situation in Texas is particularly acute, because the crop is 25,000,000 bushels larger than last year while there is a scar city of local storage facilities. This situation is being met, he stated, by increasing vessel shipments from Galveston and increasing permits for car shipments to Galveston, 50 to 100 per cent. Efforts for fur ther relief in wheat shipment will be discussed at meeting of railroad and grain corporations officials in Chicago this week, he said.

A DANGEROUS ORGANIZATION.

In the face of conclusive evidence that the uprising in Phillips county was an organized effort on the part of certain black and white men to overthrow white rule in the county, the Society for the Advancement of Colored People of New York has the effrontery to charge that nothing of the kind occurred. The society as- serts that the failure of certain ne groes to get proper settlement on their crops was the whole cause of the trouble. A correspondent, the society says, is authority for the in- formation.
 While it may be very true that there have been recent instances of negroes who suffered from the fail ure of white landlords to settle with them, nothing of the sort caused the Phillips county trouble. Evidence obtained by the Helena officials, the committee of seven, the newspapers, Judge Kerwin of this city, who represented the federal government, and others, point conclusively to the fact that the uprising was the result of a plot. The evidence is in; some of the miscreants have confessed. There is no argument on this point.
 The trouble is that this so-called negro betterment society, spending huge sums and spreading propaganda throughout the country, can do as much to create the impression that the whites caused the Phillips trouble as can the facts in the case, properly and truthfMly set forth by the citi- zens committee.
 The society in question ought to be dissolved. It is the same organiza- tion that sent Shillady down into Texas. It is putting out line of lit erature on social equality that will cause trouble every time a gullible negro reads it.
 It is seeking not for the better ment of the negro, but to bring about his ruin. It is trying to create trouble where ever there is no trou- ble. The white men who are rum ming it ought to be put in jail and the general offices and printing es- tablishments should be junked
 Incidentally we ought to call to ac- count any white men who are not giving the negro square deal. One act of injustice on their part weighs more in the minds of uniformed northern people than all the bcnevol- ent acts of the vast majority.

A FRANK STATEMENT NEEDED.

The report has been published that President Wilson has suffered les ion in the head that will permanently affect him and make it impossible for him to continue to perform the du- ties of his office.
 This report comes by way of New Hampshire, having originated in d letter from Senator Moses of that state to friend of his at Manches- ter.
 Dr. Grayson and the other physi- clans who are taking care of Mr Wilson at the time the report was issued had given no intimation that such was the case.
 Questioned, since the report was issued, they have neither admitted il nor denied it. Grayson has con. tented himself with the statement that he will confine the public's in. formation about Mir. Wilson to the official bulletins which he is in the habit of issuing. These bulletin. merely state the presidents condition at the hour they are issued. They dc not discuss his illness.
 Consequently the public is left il the dark. Uninformed, the people arr likely to believe any of the unauthor ized statements about Mir. Wilson Believing these, they are uneasy They have a right to know just how bad off the president is. If Dr. Gray

Washington, Oct. 13.-Denial that "a military censorship had been es- abolished at Gary, Ind, where feder- al troops are on duty because of the steel strike, was made in telegram received at the War Department to- day from Major General Leonard Wood.
