It Is no _man’s fault and the amendment does not pupish him for it, He can regis- ter just as if born in lawful wedlock. The registrars are all so instructed. The man who registers under the grandfather clause will have his name on & permanent roll and never be sub- -Jected to the trouble of ftgistering again. In answer to a question we -will state that no mulatto can register under the grandfather clause by claim- ing to be the son of a wuite man who could vote in 1867. No mulatto can vote under the grandfather clause, un- less the son of a white woman, and then he yotes through his mother’s father.”—Exchange. eee Noble Sentiment. There are 28,000 white children em- ployed in the cotton factories of the ‘southern states, working for starvation _wages, while the factories are coining ‘money. These white children; like their elders, refuse to allow black shil- dren to work in“'the factories with them. And, yet, our sympathies go out to the little white slaves, who should be in the school houses instead of the factories tolling for a pittance. ‘Their proud parents should be ashamed of themselves, but they are not.

It Is under- _stood that this request will be backed up with affidavits upon which true bills against a number of individuals can be found.

But there is an unseen“hand—the Provi- dence of God, which rules and presides over the destinies of men, and will as surely revenge the innocent blood slain by the lawless mob. It will come, too, when we are not looking for It. If the posaibility to escape created a necessi- ty for such hasty action, there would be some excuie from a humon point ot view. But those who constitute the mobs have the law in their own hands, and can mete to each and all sharged with crime, their justice by law. Secretary Root is appealing to the powers of the world to join in with the United States in protesting against the treatment of the Jews, five thous- and or more miles away, while right under his own flag, in the boasted “Land of the free and home of the brave,” the innocent blood of Amer- tcan cltizens {s crying from the branch- es of trees, telegraph poles, lamp posts and log cabins for protection, while other charred forms at the stake are attesting the fact of, and protesting against the barbarous treatment of the- Negro in this country.

Five hundred policemen and all tho ambu- lances In the city were instantly sum- moned and the dying and those most seriously injured were removed to the hospitals. In addition to these many of,the wounded were taken by friends. Nine mer in charge-of the fire works display were placed under arrest im- mediately after tho explosion. ‘The densest portion of the throng that packed the square was gathered along Madison avenue closo to the place reserved for the discharge of fire works. Along the border of the square facing the avenue were arrang- ed three groups of cast fron mortars, twenty in each group, and loaded heay- ily. A few minutes after 10 o'clock the first row of mortars was touched off, but before the discharge took place, one of them fell over on ‘ts sido and the next Instant the bomb: was shot into the thickest of the crowd, where it exploded and hurled the peo- ple into heaps. = The fall of the mortar and the con- cussion of the explosion knocked down the rest of the roW of mortars and a thundering yolley of huge projectiles plowed through the crowd, oa Almost instantancously the ,second group of twenty mortars about 100 feet farther up the avenue discharged their contents into the crowd, and a moment later*the third group, evidently ignited by the showers of falling sparks, ex- ploded in the same manner. Thousands in Panic. In the panic that ensued thousands ran blindly across the square, tripping over the seats and benckes, and, fall- ing, were trampled upon. The police on duty were carried along by the rush and for haif an hour the wildest cotifusion reigned. After the smoke of the explosion had cleared away sixteen persons were found lying on Madison avenue be- tween Twenty-third and Twenty-fifth streets. Scores of injured were scat- tered about the avenue and the s@lare. Among the dead was a policeman who was standing close to the mortar and whose body was frightfully mangled. | A force of 500 policemen were soon on the spot and upwards of one hun- dred physicians and 200 nurses were summoned from the hospitals, every avatlable vehicle being pressed into sersico for the transportation of the wounded.

TREASURER ROBERTS REPORTS Officlal pilates Glowingly on immense Cash Balance and Great Hold Ings of the Yellow 5 Metal. oe Ellis H. Roberts, treasurer of the United States, in opening his annual report says that the magnitude of the available cash balance and the unpre- cedented holdings of grdss gold are the striking features of the condition of the treasury at the close o the fiscal year 1002, ‘Tho available cash balance in the treasuty July 1, 1902, was the largest net balance {n our history. It amount- ed to $362,187,361. The gold rescrve is counted in as it is available for the redemption of legal tender notes. Nearly one-half of the available cash balance July 1 was. in gold coin and | certificates; $108,801,290 over and -above the gold reserve of $150,000,000, and by October 1 it became $136,124, 771. AS a measure of the financial strength of the government, the report says the fact deserves mention. By October 1, 1902, available cash balance, exclusive of the reserve, was $221, 253,304, and owing to the large meas- “ures for the relief of the money market it was reduced by November 1 to $206,- 421,870. Of this sum $146,885,012 was ix national banks. To the gencral stock, of money {a the country, an addition of $80,198,681 “was made during the fiscal year. Of ‘this $67,955,527 yvas in gold coin and builion, There wes also an increaso of $19,785,259 in standard dollars and of $7,360,991 in subsidiary silver. United States notes ~emained under the law unchanged, Treasury notes fell off $17,783,000. National bank notes received an increment of $2,851,- 589. The gold coin and bullion Octobex-1 exceeded all other kinds of money, @x- cluding national bank notes, by $200,- 268,433, In five years the ratio of gold in the country to total circulation has run up from 26.52 to 46.45 to the hundred. ‘The growth in the volume of moncy fn circulation during the year was 374,082,589, cerrying the per capita from 27.98 to 28.43. The clement of gold coin and gold certificates wes the largest part and the increased reached $61,956,174 and advanced from 40.3@?per cent of the total to 41.73 per cent. In silver of all denominations, Including certifi- cates, there was an Increase of $25, 226,146, of which $6,426,014 was in sub- sidiary coin. The-reduction in treas- ury notes of $17,677,800 is due to their withdrawal. INDIAN LOSES WEALTH. Highwaymen Used Decoy and Secured $22,000 In Gash, A dispatch from Missoula, Mont., says: A wealthy Flathead Indian named Matchell has been robbed of £22,000 in cash, the money consisting 6f $100 bills and $20 goht pieces. Matchell visited the town of Plains and ‘turing his absence at night,'a man dressed as a squaw visited his honie on Camas Prairie, and engaged in con- versation with Matchell's squaw. Mrs. Matchell noticed that the visitor was not an Indian squaw, but a White man and her suspicions were, aroused, when she saw two men run from an outbuild- {ng where the wealth had been stored and carrying something with them. The robbers jumped on their horses which were nearby, the man that had been talking to the squaw joined them, and the three hurried away, leaving no clue. . Matchell is the wealthiest full blood Indian on the reservation. He has large herds of cattle and horses, and was always known to have money, which he kept in an old trunk in an outbullding.

New York reelected Governor B, 3, Odell and the entire state ticket, though the falling off In the republican plurality as com- pared to’ 1909 was enormous.

In Pennsylvania former Governor Pattison has materially edaced the republican majority, but the odds | against him were tof. great. In Ohio, Mayor om Johnson, of Cleveland, who has led the democratic forces, seems to have met a Waterloo defeat. His candidate for secretary of state, Bigelow, has been defeated by a majority approximating 100,000. The aim of Jobnsor and his lleptenants was to make a‘ material reduction In the normal republican majority, but they failed. This may in some degree be at- tributed to factional differences Inside the democratic party. ‘The republicans have held thelr own in the middle and western states, and made some gains. In Delaware, the democratic candi- date for congress has been given a good plurality. The official vote will probably be necessary to determine the complexion of the legislature, which may have the opportunity of electing two senators. The democrats of Massachusetts, under the leadership of Colonel Gaston, made decided gains, but there yas no hope of carrying the state. The election of the democratic can- didate for governor of Rhode Island fs one of ‘the big surprises. NEW “JIM GROW” LAW.

D., conducted the services and spoke in a feeling manner of the deceased. President Wright and Rev. Simms also spoke. Mr. Thomas was a young man about twenty years of age. He gave every promise of being a useful and able man. He had a large circle of friends and all liked him and unite in sorrow at his death. At Rochelle the patrons of the school were very appreciative of his services. It was only a few weeks ago that. THE TRIBUNE published an article from that place commending Mr. Thomas for the work he was doing. His death is indeed a sad blow to the mother, father and the family. In their bereavement they have the heartiest sympathy of the entire community. The pall-bearers consisted of a club of the young men of the College. State Convention. The State Convention of Congregational churches will convene with the First Congregational Church commencing Wednesday evening at 8 o'clock with devotional exercises conducted by Rev. J H. H.

Proctor. Retained Its Reputation. The Forest City Glee Club lost none of its well earned reputation at its musicale on Tuesday night at the Beach. The musicale was given for the benefit of the First Congregational church. The program as published was carried out and each number elicited applause. The crowd that greeted the club was large and select; one that appreciates such a program as was presented. This institution deserves the unstinted support of the community. Persons desiring to secure their services can arrange for the same by calling on the manager, Mr. T. A. Milledge, 514 Hartridge street Mrs. Madden's Death. Mrs. Madden, the beloved wife of Mr. C. B. Madden, the efficient railway mail clerk, died on Sunday last. Mr. and Mrs. Madden lived at Dublin prior to moving here and since coming in our midst they were liked by all with whom they came in contact. Mr. Madden has the heartfelt sympathy of all his friends in this, his very sad bereavement. If you want your work done promptly consult the Poerless Steam Laundry Co 206-210 Pr k Ave. East.
