The higher court to which appeal

ln Washington city in April and Sep

he would permit would be:
"In any cane ln which the jurisdic

(Special Diapitch to Tb Jonrntl.)
Washington, Nov. 16 Because use is
being made by opponents of the admin
istration of the Brownsville affair to in
fluence the negro voters against the
president and Secretary Taft, A. H. Hill
a prominent negro educator, president
of Shorter college, Arkansas, and editor
of the Voice, a publication run ln the
Interest of the negro race, has started
an inquiry respecting whether or not
there is reason why the negroes of the
country should resent the action of th
president in dismissing three companies
or tne xwenty-nrtn inrantry.
Among those to whom he has written
on the subject ia Ralph W. Tyler, aud
itor for the navy department ln the
treasury of tha United States,
Tyler's reply is about the clearest
statement of the matter from the stand
point of an intelligent negro that has
yet Deen presented. His letter to Presi
dent Hill Is. ln part, as follows.:
''Dear Sir I have your esteemed favor
pf recent date, requesting matter per
taining to tne presidents side of the
Brownsville affair.
"As I view it, 'the president's side' is
a rather erroneous phrase; since the
President's order in this matter was
ased on the findings of officers whose
sworn onriciai duty it was to ascertain
tne racts, ana upon wnom tne presiden
relied for an impartial report, whloft re
port, aa transmitted to congress, you
nave aououess reaa.
"Our . Interest, aa a class, ln the
Brownsville affair is predicated upon
the discharge or xnese soldiers because
of the color of their skin. If we can
produce no proof that their racial iden
tification waa responsible for the order
of dismissal, then our interest in the
Brownsville affair can only be the ordi
nary interest any one, without reference
to color or race, taxes in any executive
or governmental action.
"If the discharge of white soldiers
would have been passed unnoticed by
us, as a race t wnicn wouia nave been
the case), then it is decidedly incon
sistent that we make a race affair out
of the Brownsville order, with no proof
to onrer that race ldeniincatlon was tha
real basis for the order,
"I challenge any onof our race to
produce one single bit Bjr evidence that
the president's action was promoted bv
race enmity.
"I. challenge any one of our race to
offer one slncrle bit of evidence to la-
prove the claim that the course of
President Roosevelt with respect to our
race has been oner of uniform, practical.
cordial friendship.
"ir he has ever differentiated as be-'
tween white and black, it has been In
favor of the blacks. Every utterance
of his since becoming the president and
oerore. wnne yet nut a private citizen,
has been redolent with hope and en
couragement for our race.
What president haa ever accorded
the race a representation In office avnn
nearly approaching that accorded tha
race by the preaent chief executive?
What president has ever expressed
so often and so forcibly ln public speech
and in private conversation his belief
that our race is entitled to and should
receive the recognition due American
cltlsensT And that la all we have
right to ask.
"With these incontrovertible facta
standing out in bold relief, how can any
negro charge that the Brownsville order
waa predicated on col or T and if not
predicated on color, what right haa the
negro, simply as a class, to criticise the
act aa an act committed against the
race?
"There are unquestionably times when
honest criticism and even unqualified re
sentment is proper, but it should be dig
nified, and the object of auch should
never be those who by their very acts,
past and present, demonstrate that
whether his akin be bleached with the
hue of Caucasian or be clouded with
the ahadowy livery or the burnished
sun, to them 'a man's a nan for a'
that'."
Tyler haa been for years a leader of
negro sentiment ln Ohio, and his letter
is likely to have great weight with the
negroes or mat ana otner states.

Saturday night next. Mr. Way, who
is an electrical engineer by profession,
was himself deaf for 25 years and it
was to relieve his own trouble that he
devoted his genius and skill to solving
the problem of an artificial aid to
hearing. His theory that the human
ear is only a delicate piece of mechan
ism has been proven true, and it is in
teresting to see Mr. Way remove from
his ears the little devices he invented,
and without which he is as badly off
as those who are daily consulting him
for defective hearing. All who are
deaf should visit Mr. Way while he is
in the city, as his success with the
Way Ear Drums in relieving deafness
is unquestionable.
