Richmond Planet

GREAT ARGUMENT BY ATTY. H M. SMITH, JR.-EDITORIAL TENDED TO ELEVATE AND NOT TO CORRUPT. Judge Waddill's Ruling in Journa Case As a Basis—Questions of Law Submitted—Prominent Citizens Present. The United States District Court, His Honor Edmund Waddell, Jr. presiding was the scene of one of the most interesting cases ever argued be force that tribunal. It was a hearing on it not on to quash the indictment against John Mitchell, Jr. for publish in the encopade of ex-Pollegian Culling worth, who was found with a woman in the toilet of a poach on the excursion of the Rotall Grocers excursion last summer and who was tried before Chief Louis Werner, adjudged guilty and dismissed from the police force for conduct unbecoming an officer and a gentleman. APPEALED TO THE MAYOR. He appealed to Mayor George Alnallie, who sustained the findings of the Chief and his associates. He endeavor to make a further appeal, but under the ruling of City Attorney H. R. Pollard, he could not do so. The editorials in The Planet condemned the officer for his act. Upon ruling of the authorities action was begun in the United States District Court. Under the law, Attorney H. M. Smith claimed that in order for the matter in the Planet to come within the limitations of the statute, it must have a tendency to corrupt the youth. THE MOTION TO QUASH. It was on this phase of the subject that a motion was made to quash. Judge Waddill, one of the ablest jurists upon the district bench of the country set 3 P. M last Tuesday and the court-room was filled with the leading colored citizens here and many prominent white ones. The feature in the case was the fact that a ruling and a decision had been handed down in the case of the Richmond, Va. Journal, which published the proceedings of the celebrated Beatle case. The account was revolting and indecent. MUCH TIME DEVOTED. In handing down his decision and in sustaining the motion to quash the indictment in this case Judge Waddell showed that he had devoted much time to the subject and his decision stands in the nature of a classic. It was on this case that the celebrated criminal lawyer, H. M. Smith, Jr., relied for a favorable decision in this case. United States District Attorney Richard H. Monn, one of the ablest attorney before the Virginia bar, assisted by brilliant Assistant Attorney Hiram M. Smith handled the case in an admirable manner for the government. Attorney H. M. Smith opened the argument after reading the two articles. In question He read copions extracts on previous rulers and quoted at length Judge Waddell's word up on the subject. He insisted that the law was never intended to apply to causes of this kind and character, where the wrong act was held up to scorn and ridicule. He read from the causal criticism to show that the intention of the writer was to make the of offense disguising and to preclude the idea of a similar affair happening again. 1 IN SAME ISSUE. He called attention to the fact that both editorials were in the same issue of the Planet and when the editor had completed, his comment, he was through. Some of the expressions had been better left unused and were to an extent coarse, but the offense was unusual. He created some amusement when he declared in the language of a famous jerk that the police-officer did not go in that toilet to say his prayers. NO ATTACK UPON POLICE DEPARTMENT. It was no attempt to attack the police department, but on the other hand commented the editorials for wounding out the mind of mankind at the endings, the very same District Attorney Richard H. Moore commented the editorials and asked what he desired to do to eliminate mischief, which he declined to allow. one interpretation. Judge Waddill interrupted him to say that these extracts must be considered in connection with all of the other matter in the editorial. MANY AUTHORITIES CITED Attorney Mann declared that it was an attack upon the police department Judge Waddill mildly remarked that he did not think so in view of what followed. The District Attorney read from law books to sustain his content on the right of his Honor, to quash the indictment and asked that it be submitted to a jury. He said that he would not read further from authorities, but would submit a list of them to His Honor for his consideration. He said that the law had been amended since the decision in the Journal case. HIS HONOR HAD RULED. Attorney H. M. Smith, Jr., arose to reply. He called attention to the fact that the word indecent was cited by His Honor in the Journal case, which showed that this case had been passed upon since the law had been amended. In the Journal case, Judge Waddell ruled that the Journal publishers were within their constitutional rights and he dismissed the case. He was of the opinion that a conviction of the editor of the Planet upon such a charge could not stand and he cited a case of where in the Warringer case an editor had used language a hundred fold worms and the Supreme Court of the United States had reversed the ruling of the lower court against him. JUDGE WADDILL SPEAKS PLAINLY He also showed that the language used in condemnation of this wrongful act did not come within the statute. He quoted an extract from Shake speare, which according to the position taken by the District Attorney would bar that standard work and many of our best authors from the use of the mails. He included the Holy Bible as another great work that would come within the limitations set by the honorable District Attorney. At the conclusion of the remarks, Judge Waddill stated that he had always stood for the constitutional rights of the press. WOULD DECIDE LATER. However, he would examine the authorities submitted by the District Attorney and give his decision later. He was busy now and he did not suppose that there need be any hurry about it. The crowd filed out, while the distinguished Virginian, Hon. H. M. Smith, Jr., was congratulated by his many admirers upon the admirable presentation of the case. It had been expected that if the motion to quash had been overruffed, the trial would have taken place before a jury upon Wednesday morning. HOTLY CONTESTED The case had promised to be one celéire, in manuach as every step was to be hotly contested. Judge Waddill had had before him cases, which have attracted the attention of the civilized world and his decisions have been generally sustained. He is a close student and popular alike with both bench and bar. At the conclusion of the arguments in the Mitchell case, in the United States District Court last Tuesday, Judge Edmund Waddill, Jr, said from the bench: "It is hard to have one case exactly fit another. In the Journal case, we had questions raised which were ruled upon then. I have tried to protect the newspapers. In the Journal case, the case was so bad that the News Leader, that had also been indicted, came into Court and pleaded guilty and paid the fine. CONSTITUTIONAL GUARANTEES PREDOMINANT. "The Journal did not do so. The constitutional guarantees of the press are such as to make it a very serious matter to prevent any newspaper from having the free use of the mails. The test was to decide whether the article was understood to incite the incessious passions in the youth. "I couldn't see that in the testimony that this was any intention to corrupt the youth. I couldn't see anything to excite a desire. On the contrary, it was just the reverse. In this article there are certain expressions that had best not have been said." "I'd rather look at it again. I'll rather take it under consideration and examine authorities and see if it comes within the ruling in the Journal case. It certainly hardens, pretty clearly upon that which would exite, hostilities." "I have much to do and I do not suppose that you are in any hurry. I'll double it as soon as I can." RICHMOND, VIRGINIA, SATURDAY, OCTOBER 28, 1916 EDITOR MITCHELL'S TRAVELS Federal Prison at Leavenworth—A Haze Hall Game—Prisoners Jubilant—A Question of Race and Color—Fast Automobile Ride—Graphic Description. I took dinner at the residence of Judge I. F. Bradley and his charming Madame. Their accomplished daughter, Miss Ruth, acted also as hostess. The presence of Dr. S. H. Thompson and his accomplished Madame and their children added to the pleasure of the evening. The repast was very fine, and I reluctantly entered Dr. Thompson's Hudson car for the return trip. We were to attend another entertainment that night. WITH JOYFUL ANTICIPATION. I looked forward with joyful anticipation to a trip to Leavenworth on the next day with Undertaker John W. Jones as chauffeur, in his new super-six Hudson. Dr. Thompson took good paints to leave his car in front of his office. The distance was approximately fifty miles for the round trip. Undertaker Jones is a six footer easily, and except for complexion, resembles Undertaker A. D. Price, of Richmond. I went to bed that night with the gruesome knowledge that I would be absolutely in the hands of this skillful embalmer. THE QUESTIONS UPPERMOST. What could he do with an automobile and what would the automobile do with the passengers? This was the question. I was ready to try the experiment, and so on Saturday morning. I hurried over to Kansas City Kansas, via street car line, made a few additional purchases and I was at Ds. Thompson's office to the minute, in order to meet the party for In Memoriam. In loving memory of our dear father, Wm. H. Carter, Sr. who died two years ago--Oct. 25, 1914, and our dear mother, Elsa R. Carter, who died seven months ago--March 24, 1916. We miss their gentle love. We miss their tender care. But God had need for them. So they live with Him over them. Gone, but not forgotten. No, never can you be. We daily long for your presence. And hope to live with thee. Their children. T. W. Taylor Gene T. W. Taylor, son of the late Rev. William L. Taylor, was buried last Wednesday at Dossell. Va. in the family plot. Something Extra!

BAPTIST CHURCH The Seventieth Anniversary Services of the Second Baptist Church and the 27th Anniversary of the Pastor, Dr. Z. D. Lewis, began last Sunday morning under prospects most favorable. Announcement having been made that Dr. Walter H. Brooks of Washington, D. C. would preach the initial sermon of the week's series, the people came out to hear him in such large numbers that in the large auditorium of the church standing room was at a premium and hundreds were turned away. This most gifted son of Virgin in delivered a sermon of rare eloquence and power from 1 John 4:7. Subject "The Tests of Love for God" He declared that our love for God was the evidence of the new birth. Some of the tests by which God determines our love for Him: viz. the world test or our attitude to the world—the pleas are test, or our love for pleasure; the heart test or our love for each other; the test of obedience, or our doing of his commandments; the service test, or the work we are doing in the cause of Christ. In his great sermon he made no reference to the good feeling which is commonly spoken of as the evidence of the new birth by those who are not instructed in the teachings of the Bible. At night a crowd equally as large turned out to hear him on the theme "The Bible in the Home." Due: 6:3-6. He urged the importance of having the family altar in the home, where parents may pray with their children and teach them the word of God. Deacon M. Denee read a splendid paper, subject, "Some Beacon Lights of the Deacon Board." On Monday night at an early hour the church was filled to her flowing to hear a burning message from Dr. R. V. Peyton, the eloquent pastor of the Sixth Mt. Zion Baptist Church, on the subject "Our duty to praise God." Ps. 135:1-12. His words were punctuated with loud "Amenes and tears he told of the marvelous grace of God in preserving the church through a period of seventy years and keeping a captain at the head of the great hosts of Second Baptist Church for 27 years. He was a companion by his deacons and other officers. Deacon, Shelton, Branch and Meyers succeeded in raising a collection of $36.75 Prof. Thos M. Crump read a well written and instructive paper subject, "Our Choir and Its Leaders." On Tuesday night Dr. William Alexander, of Balt Md., and Secretary of Lott Carey Foreign Mission Convention, was expected to fill his number on the program, but failing to to so, Rev. L. O. Lewis, B. D. of Lynchburg, Va., preached a strong sermon from the theme, "Courage" 2 Kings, 6:16. "The rise and progress of our Sunday School" was the subject of a splendid paper read by Miss Corn L. Bright. The church is brought up to a high pitch of enthusiasm over the occasion as evidenced by the large attendance at every service. The services will close next Monday night, Oct. GRAVES-HOUSTON.

Rev Dr. Brooks, of Washington the Central Figure—History of the Past—Large Crosses The Second Baptist Church began celebrating the 70th anniversary of the church and the 47th anniversary of its pastor, Rev. Z. D. Lewis, D. D. Rev. Walter H. Brooks, D. D. pastor of the Nineteenth Street Baptist Church of Washington, D. C., who at one time was pastor of the church, was present to deliver the sermon at 11:30. A brand new brass rail with posts to match had been placed around the pulpit. It had been polished to almost golden brightness. ADDED TO THE CHEERFULNESS. Green plants added to the cheerfulness of the scene. A cloth had been stretched across the pulpit, being supported from the sides, and told that it was the anniversary of the church. Every member of the large choir, under the leadership of Choir Leader Thomas M. Crump, seemed to be in place. On the sides of the galleries were placards giving historical information concerning the church. It was not long after the regular hour that standing room was at a premium PRELIMINARY ENERCISE Rev. Dr. Brooks always draws a crowd in Richmond, and this, supplemented by the special occasion, caused hundreds to seek admission. Prayer was offered by Rev. Dr. J. H. Hinford. Rev. Z. D. Lewis, D. D., gave out the hymn, "I Love Thy Kingdom Lord." After the singing he gave a brief history of the church. It was organized in April, 1846. The name of the organizer were on the cards or placards around the church. THE WORK OF ORGANIZATION The meeting was held at 3 o'clock on a Sunday afternoon. Letters were read and certain minutes were adopted. A constitution drawn by the white people was adopted and arrangements made for the church to work under a committee of 24 white people. Rev J H. Jeter preached the sermon, and Rev Love prayed. The condition of organization was that the church should first purchase a home of its own. This requirement was complied with, said Rev. Lewis, and the Second Baptist Church was the first colored church to purchase its own property without outside help from any source. A FIGHTING PREACHER Rev. Lewis told a story on Rev. Jeremiah Porter, who pastored from 1846 to 1854. He beat one of his female members. When he came to church on Sunday, one of the members said that they did not want a pastor who would preach to them on Sunday and beat a woman on Monday. So they put Rev. Porter out that afternoon and later secured another pastor. Rev. J. H. Binford then in a brief, but appropriate address, introduced Rev. W. H. Brooks, D. D., who delivered a sermon from I John, 4:7 "Every one that loveth is born of God." His subject was "World Teste." AN ABLE DISCOURSE The sermon was able and scholarly and held the congregation spell-bound. He quoted from I John 2:15, James 4:4, I Timothy 3:16, I John 4:20, I John 1:17-18, I John 1:18. He declared that there was no fear in love. He impressed the audience with the necessity of living godly lives and with loving one another. He analyzed the test of love, the test of faithfulness, the test of obedience, and he declined to discuss the test of feeling. As this trained, eloquent and argumentative pulpit orator discussed the tests, St. Jennifer Miller responded. ENCOURAGING THE SPEAKER Her expression varied to suit the points he made. They were "Tell the truth, son! Everlasting God! Amen. I know you are preaching myself! Tell that thing right good!" Dr. Brooks did not mind these interruptions, but cited copiously from the Scriptures. He concluded with the service test. Then the choir sang after Rev. Lewis' had announced that he had been dispointed in securing the service of the white divine for the night's service and that Rev. Brooks would preach again. AGAIN CROWDED. At 5 P. M. the editions were again wrapped and Rev. W. H. Brooks, D. D. was as eloquent and as impressive as before. The exercises have been in progress every night except Saturday night. UNION TROUNCES ST. PAUL. Union amashed all records for more-pilling when she succeeded in amassing 91 tallies to a goose egg against the St. Paul Institute's cloven in Hovey Park Saturday. The contest was decidedly Union's through out; the visitors were unable to make a single first-down during the game, and only once crossed their line of scrimmage. Union's team was the superior one in weight, speed and versatility. The home team's greater efficiency was displayed in every department of the contest. Her record is replete with long spectacular runs, successful line plunges, long, gain-setting forward passes and thirteen touchdowns. The first line of defense was in excellent condition. Wright and Puryear (captain) played stellar stuff in right tackle and guard respectively, while Watts and Brown come in for merited mention on the opposite side of the line. Banks, on left end was the feature of the game; although a gerrit, if he continued to make such a record of tackles as he did Saturday. Thanksgiving will find him in the constellar class. Union's backfield played phenomenal ball is a unit each man having several long runs, line bucks and touch downs to his credit. In spite of all these overwhelming odds the plucky visitors played a consistent game throughout. For the visitors, Bragg and Bublock easily capture the hands. Summary: Field Goals, Huckles, 5; Bowle, 3; Gregory, 2; Daniel, Goal kicks, Huckles, 6; Daniel, 2; Safety, Wright. Rev. Hector's Thanks. Richmond, Va., Oct. 20, 1916 Hon.

Craw- ford In Stirring Address Takes the Church to Task for Failing to do It's Duty (Allen's, Nail, Neck, Burger Lenox Avenue) New York City, Oct. 16. The Colored National Campaign Committee which is made up of industrial colored Republicans from every section of the country, and which will have for its aim the teaching of the colored voters of the country for the Republican ticket, is waging a campaign that will spell defeat for the Democratic ticket so far as the colored voters are concerned, and which will do much to restore to the Republican ranks the large number of voters who left the party in 1912. The Colored Committee is leaving nothing unloved to reach the voters throughout the nation, and to overthrow the Democratic ticket, and bring back to the nation the prosperity it once enjoyed under the old G.O.P. regime. Your correspondent called at the headquarters last week and found the campaign paying the campaign as it will pertain to the Negro. The colored committee is a part of The National Republican Committee located at 511 Fifth Avenue, and has been given expanded quarters on the eighth floor. A suite of rooms splendidly fitted up, with every convenience for the work has been not坠 as for the Colored Bureau, and the atmosphere charged with work, work, work, and is just as active as any other part of the work. The Republican Party realizes the importance of the colored votes and the necessity of having trained men to reach them, and as the committee is to reach the colored voters, is made up of some of the best trainees in the country. Your correspondent made a close study of the personnel of the committee and was impressed with the earnestness which they manifested in the campaign, and the fine detail work that they were putting in the campaign. The detail work has been placed in the sketch of every lines, and before the campaign, away the merits of the work, the details will be put into place and the elements of the Wilson constitution will be placed before every other officer of the ballot. Making up the colored committee are well known men of national finance like Lincoln A. Johnson, one of the most representative men of race, who has been placed at the top of the political department. Mr Johnson is busy reaching the publica tions throughout the country will carefully prepared matter forth the merits of the Republican party. In addition to reach the new papers, he is preparing tract pamphlets for distribution and more matter which will be used in the campaign. In addition to prepare the country and tell our correspondent that he fell sure that the Negro voter would realize the importance of voting the Republican ticket, and to restrain some of his lost political practice. He was formerly Recorder of Deeds and was the last of the Negro office holders to be the victim of the Witkower rule. Mr Johnson is assisted by T. Thomas Fortune, the well-known journalist, whose keen journalistic sense and fine experience in preparing copy, will do much towards presenting the colored voter the issue of the campaign. Mr Fortune is one of the most enthusiastic workers at the headquarters, and expressed to the writer his belief that in the face of conditions as they confront the Negro it would be an easy victory for the Republicans. The New York Age will be the most one of the most dependable part of the race is also a busy worker at headquarters. He is giving his best support to the success of the work, and the committee is finding valuable help in the New York Age. The editor of the New York Age will be a big figure in the campaign and will bring to the work a fine experience, based upon a long career. One of the most important departments of the campaign work will be the work of the Speakers' Bureau. This department is under the direction of Charles W. Anderson, perhaps the most noted and influential politicians in the race. He has been honored by the Republican party in a most pronounced manner, and placed in positions of the highest rank and power in the situation as perhaps few men do, and already he is making the department he is at the head, one of the strongest features of the work. He has selected a group of well trained speakers, who are educated on the issues of the campaign, and who will carry to the colored voters throughout the nation, the issues in a most compact and forceful manner. In talking to your correspondent, Mr. Anderson said that he would send prepared speakers to every section of the country, and that before the campaign was over, he would the "what it means to be unknown the Democratic ticket." His meetings throughout the country are already being planned, and this country promises to be the scene of some old time Republican rallies that were so conspicuous in the days of McKinley, Roosevelt and Blaine. Inplications point to a livly campaign, and a visit to the headquarters will convince the visitor that the work of the committee is well under way. Well-known men of the race, high up in Republican ranks, like Ernest Lyons, have called at the hondquarters and kept the committee informed on the situation as it pertains throughout the country. The writer has been informed from good and rollable sources that Chairman Wilcox of the Republican National Committee, and Hon. Herbert Parsons, who is in charge of the work among the Negroes, is pleased with the work of the Colored Committee. The work of the Colored Committee has been well organized with the following departments and heads appointed. Charles W. Anderson is Chief Director. A staff Director, James A. Cobb, of Washington; Secretary, Perry Howard, Committee of Speakers; Ralph, Langston, of New York; Secretary, and Committee on Literature. T. Thomas Fortune. The committee is impressing upon the colored voters that this is the most favorable year in the political life of the Negro, and that returned prosperity would come with Republican victory. MRS J. L. CRAWFORD OPENS FINE MILLINERY SHOP The pride of the colored women of this city is the beautiful military shop, which has just been opened by Mrs Jennie L. Crawford, at 160 Lenox Avenue. At the shop may be found the latest creations in women's headwear, as well as one of the most fancy embellished military shops to be found anywhere in the city. Your correspondent visited the shop last week, and was pleased to note the fine discrimination so evident in the makeup of many styles of hats that he saw. The shop was formerly owned by a prominent Jewess, who built up a fine trade. Mine Crawford, since passing the shop, has not only kept the former trade but has added to it a large degree. She is one of the most prominent women in the city, and is an expert in her blue. Her store is one of the show places of the city and women who visit this city who desire the latest in headwear will do well to visit her. She gives employment at this site to two capable young women. Mme Annie Jackson and Edith Marty. The success Mr Crawford has at tained ought to a lave as an inspiration.

Broadcast VOL. 107 by OPENLINE Until further notice, the parties declare in Maryland very soon the State Board of Health is approving that that State will have to be included in the area affected which Virginia has established partial quarantine. Health Commissioner Williams is in daily communication with the health authorities of Maryland, is receiving formal reports of new cases, and is hoping that the situation in that State will improve. In case it does, drastic action may not be necessary and the present quarantine may be raised at no distant date. During the general outlook to day, Dr. Williams made the following statement: "The original of danger in New York appears to have practically ran its course, but some of the epidemics that probably had their origin in New York are still active. We have watched these carefully and have modified the quarantine time as our experience justified, but we do not feel that all danger is past by any means. The most hopeful aspect of the epidemic is the ease items to abate or at least to lose some of its epidemic forms when cold weather comes on. This may merely mean that trouble is postponed until next summer, in which case immediate action will be necessary." "The United States Public Health Service recently published the returns for infantile paralysis during September in all the States. Virginia had fewer cases by far than any other State on the Atlantic seaboard, with the possible exception of North Carolina, which did not file a report. Inasmuch as Virginia has the most stringent quarantine of any of these States, it is reasonable to suppose that quarantine has been responsible for at least a part of our relative immunity, so no of our weapons have employed the same other States have neglected and it can hardly be a coincidence that our morbidity was no low. The board cannot afford not to read its warning from this situation and would be recurrent in its duty if it took chances. "The board will dislike having to quarantine against Maryland, but if the situation in Maryland does not improve, we must take those precautions which our experience leads us to believe have protected us from the disease as it has appeared in other States:" WORK AND SAVE UP. PLANET OUTSURES AND GET IN UNDERRELL OR A PROTAGRAPH. WE ARE GOOD. SEE ADVERTISMENTS IN THIS ISSUE AND START TO WORK IMMEDIATELY. ALL ARE EJIGIEN A TRIBUTE TO DR. WILLIAM T. ANINGER. (By Lee L. Brown.) A short timg ago Mr. William T. Amiger, former president of State University, left Kentucky to reside in Pennsylvania, at that time very little was said regarding his going. D-Amiger served Kentuckians so well as an educator that we feel that we will be termed as ungrateful if something is not said in reference to his going. It might be who to give a brief sketch of so useful an educator, especially an account of his career before coming into the State: We quote here from the Baptist World, a magazine published by the white Baptists of the State in reference to him. "Dr. Amiger was born in Culpeper, Va., in 1700. After being trained in the public schools of that city, he went to Wooden New York. In 1895 he entered Lincoln University, from which school he graduated in 1899. In 1902 he graduated from the Theological Department. He pastored a church at Springfield, Mass., where he served successfully for five years. In 1908 he was called to the prefecture of State University, Louisville, Ky., to succeed President Diggs. HIS CAREER AT STATE UNIVERSITY "During his administration at the university, the school took on new life. He found it poorly equipped with a heavy debt hanging over it. He traveled in nearly every county in the State soliciting funds in order that the debt may be erased. The result of this 'promotional effort was, that he equipped the Girl's Dormitory at an expense of $2,000; beautified the grounds repaired the old buildings, placed modern plumbing. He organized the white friends of the State resolving a promise from them that they would pay the institution of debt, a part of this money has already been raised. He left the university almost out of debt." Dr Amirer has already been offered a number of very responsible positions throughout the United States. We wish to quote here a number of extracts from papers throughout the country. The American Baptist, of which Mr Wm. H. Foward Chairman of the Board of Trinity of State University, is an editorial of Amirer, which he saw the need to issue of fellow articles as President of State University, Dr William T Amirer has covered his relations with the institution to enter into the hold of service. Co-founders have changed since Dr Amirer came to Kentucky he will carry with him the esteem and recognition of the people for the among them have been exemplary and charismatic. The Western Baptist, one of the leading white religious papers of the country has been the oldest of the twelve Presidents of State University has endeared his reputation. We have been a member of the University a period of years and have learned to cope and have loved his work since. E W Mullin, President of the Southern Baptist Theological Seminary of Louisiana, T with Amirer has been a member of the retirement of Dr Amirer. He is a man of much experience and knowledge. AN VITAGE BY THE CHAMPION MAGAZINE A blast that they are there and are not there is not the same as one of the valuables we up and the character of articles that we found in it. We were well acquainted with the time Prof. F. F. Johnson, Johns and know him to be an avid student with a thorough understanding and a young man who will be the topmost round of the ladder of fame at a rapid rate. We first met him while he was associated at State University during the war with a great deal of experience with a great deal of initial number, but it was with the deepest regret that we found a very unliked item regarding the career and usefulness of Dr. Amister. The attack was modified for, and could have been left out of the initial number, as it was presumed probably by some sort and difference between Dr. Johnson and Dr. Amister. Whatever these differences were, they did not interest or concern the public. Ken. Toukens received the attack, and especially the Dr. Amister's career. State University. The university was not conditions, probably, at State University that were not caused by any action or management of Dr. Amister. We repeat that we believe that the article was uncalled for and that our friend was a little hasty in opinions. In the words of the Moderator of The General Association, we wish to say frankly that we believe that Dr. Amiger's connection with State University, that he has added tone and dignity to the university and that the State has suffered a great loss on account of his going away from Kent County. In writing his little tribute to Dr. Amiger, I have been prompted by the same pride that all Kentuckiana possess when her sons or adopted sons and daughters are spoken of in an unkind way. PLACARDS FOR SCHOOLS. Richmond, Va. Oct. 18. (Special)—The State Board of Health has just issued, as a part of the educational campaign against preventable disease, a placard for use in the schools. This consists of a brief illustrated warning to the children against putting their fingers and their pencils in their mouths and is regarded as of especial importance in the fight to prevent the spread of infantile paralysis. Experience has shown that much diphtheria and many like diseases are spread by direct infection from the fingers, etc., and educators join with sanitarians in efforts to break up the untidy habits of childhood that make this possible. Copies of this placard are being sent to all the public schools and can be had upon request. (By Henry C; Conway.) With cool weather and the feel of frost in the air comes the call of the gridiron. The knight of the Mole-skin, guardian of his college's gridiron glory, will hold forth until Turkey-day. Will Hampton, winner of last year, again land at the top of the heap or will this fall bring out a new contender, and champion? Hampton, the champion of this section last year, and in truth the most capable aggregation in the opinion of the writer, representing any Negro institution last year, will have a hard time retaining her high standing this year, this granting that she will again have a strong team. Howard will, again, have a representative team and will play a harder and longer schedule than last year. It is well, however, that this is true, because it is a limited that coach Marshall has quite a task, with the material at hand, to develop a first class team. The team will, of course, be headed for Hampton Thanksgiving. It is believed that Lincoln will once more be a prominent factor in deciding the issue this year. For the past two years she has not done so well. However, remembering the many hard fought battles of previous years, all football lovers are pulling for a strong Lincoln team this year. Virginia Union University has been coming strong for the past few years and ought to be better this year. Coach Robinson will, no doubt, have his system more thoroughly developed this being his second year in charge. He was defeated last year by both Heisman and Heisman who really possessed considerable potential strength, which, under Coach Robinson, who is very capable indeed, will certainly materialize this year. Throughout the Middle States football will very likely be even more popular than before. The various teams have longer and better balanced schedules. And also the colleges will be represented by better teams and with but few exceptions be better coached. The coach problem is being solved splendidly by a majority of the largest institutions which are said to apply to the secondary schools which are commonly are more fortunate than formerly in having among their faculty some one capable of teaching the game for that is really what the coach in a secondary school must do. There can hardly be any real excuse any more intersection games are not played between Nero institutions. Properly advertised these games would create much interest and draw large numbers. Howard against Bldg. Lincoln vs Lingstone, Union vs Knoxville College, Hampton vs Atlanta, Shaw vs Wiltshire would read O.K would Virginia Normal and Industrial Institute Virginia Seminary and College and a large number of secondary schools are getting into shag. Prominent among the latter are S. Warren College of Law, Marianne Morgan College of Law, Van Wassan Manassas Industrial Manassas, Van Armstrong Manual Washington, D. C. and Storer College, Harpers Ferry, W. Va. In the Old North state thirteen are to look closely. Shaw, A. & M. Livingstone and all are work for hard and expect to give hard battles to their opponents this fall. Koehler, J. and G. Koehler are working with the staff of this institution. Y. M. C. A. NOTES.

Times-Dispatch) Motion to quash the indictment against John Mitchell, Jr., editor of the Plaintiff, a Negro Publication, charged with sending obscene matter through the mail, was set in abeyance yesterday afternoon by Judge Edmund Waddill, Jr. of the United States District Court. Judge Waddill said that he would give careful consideration to the case and consult the authorities quoted by both sides before rendering a decision. On account of the amount of court business with which he is now confronted, he could not name a date upon which he would hand down his opinion. When the Negro Editor appeared at 3 o'clock the courtroom was largely filled, the greater part of the rear benches being filled with people of his own race. He was represented by Attorney Harry M. Smith, Jr. The government was represented by United States District Attorney Richard H. Mann and Assistant United States District Attorney Hiram M. Smith. Motion to quash the indictment was made by Attorney Smith, who, after reading the editorials which the indictment has placed in question as to whether they come under the prohibition of the Federal statute which forbids the sexuality of the mails for the purposes of objection matter, said that they were not as refined as they might have been and contained some coarseness. SAYS ARTICLE SOUGHT TO ELEVATE PUBLIC MORALS He argued, however, that the whole tenor of the articles sought, not to criticize the Police Department, a former member of which was their subject, but to elevate public morals. The articles were devoted to a discussion of the actions of a former policeman on an excursion train to Buckeye Beach. The officer was afterwards dismesSED from the force. Mr. Smith argued that certain sections of the editorials could not be considered exclusively, that they must be considered as a part of the whole, and that if taken in their entirety they could not be construed as being conducive to the lowering of public morals. He quoted from several authorities, etting the decision of Judge Wadditt in the case against an afternoon paper during the Beach trial, in which the indictment was crushed, and recalled passages in the Scriptures, and in Shakespeare. In reply, United States District Attorney Mann said that the fact that the articles were written by a man regarded as a leader among his race made worse the offense and stated that the case cited by Mr. Smith in regard to an afternoon paper contained only a restatement of facts brought out in court, which is not the case in the present in stance. He argued that the evidence that Mitchell did not mean to be suggestive was not sufficient to question the question under the articles of exigentive and, therefore deleterious to morals. He said that the Negro Editor painted a scene instead of capturing himself to known facts and facts of record. JUDGE WADDLL, HOLDS WHOLE ARTIST, WILL BE CALL CONSUMER Judge Waddell agreed that certain parts of the two articles ought not to have been published, but he thought they should be considered in connection with the entire subject matter, and whether they could be considered as having had a deleterious effect "If he put in certain gratuous sentences calculated to create harmful desire," the court continued, then the articles come within the prohibition of the Federal act. If the court takes the case from the jury it ought to be very plain. Only plain cases of this sort should the newspapers be harred from the mails. The question is whether the articles tended to violate the law. Continuing his argument, Mr. Mann urged that anything, whether it be in part or in whole, which tended to corrupt would be within the purview of the law. He argued that the articles should be construed as suggestive and as calculated to injure the minds of certain classes. He too, was not lacking in historical and literary reference. Urbanna, Va., Oct. 23.—Last Sunday was a big day at the Lebanon Baptist Church, the occasion being the 25th anniversary of the church. Rev. P. E. Young, of Lancaster, preached the anniversary sermon. Subject: "The Highway." In the afternoon, Rev. Young preached from the subject, "Go work in the vineyard." Both sermons were excellent, and greatly enjoyed. The church was packed all day.

Mr. Friendly may I speak to you "She; I spoke to you at the church" He; "But I have a message for you" She; "What's it?" He; "May I go home with you?" She; "No; I have two ladies for company."

President Wilson yielded to the dictation of the heads of the Brotherhood, and made no effort to find out whether the demand was right or wrong. He made no effort to find out whether it could be compiled with without raising freight rates. He made no effort to find out all the equities in the case; those affecting the men, those affecting the stockholders, those affecting the shipers. He took his orders from that one of the parties in interest which he most feared. He insisted that the law be passed without inquiry. And then he deferred the operation of the law until after election, which, of course, could only have been done for political reasons. * * * The question at issue was not that of an eight hour day at all. The question was whether President and Congress should enact a law, without investigation and without knowledge, to give increased wages to a certain portion of the body of the wage earners. The labor leaders on this issue, without regard to the right or wrong of the matter, first covered the President, and then with his aid covered Congress. The question at issue was not one of the hours of labor. It was one of wages. And it was settled by the President and Congress without investigation and without knowledge. The settlement was due partly to fear, and partly to hope of political profits. From the Speech of Colonel Roswell at Battle Creek, Michigan, in behalf of Mr. Hughes.

He was puzzled to find a place to hide it, so he scratched his head and thought and took a drink. He found a place and took a drink; this place being unsatisfactory, he changed his mind and took another drink. He finally discovered an excellent hiding place and set down to concentrate himself and took some more drinks. A hurried call was sent later on that day for the ambulance to come immediately.

CHAPTER XVI. MEANWHILE Collis kept a vigilant eye on Silent Saunders. The other, somewhat sully, but efficiently, attended to his work. Collis's vigilance was rewrapped unexpectedly and rather disgracefully. One day, as he stood smoking Black Boyar's neck, he happened to glance across the yard. Saunders was saddling one of the horses in the corral. Locis attitude Boyar, spoke to Collis of some detail of the ranch work, purposely prodding the conversation. Something of the Collie of the Oro litle he had vanished. In its stead was an inexplicable but positive quality of masterfulness, apparent in police and murder. His grave dark eyes, upturned to her face as he croused Boyar, were disconcertingly straightforward. He seemed to be drinking his full of her beauty. His quick smile, still boyish and altogether irresolute, faded as she spoke humorously of his conquest of the outlaw cott Yunn. "I learned more riddim" that capture at the barroom for two minutes—then I ever expect to learn again in that time." Remembering that she had been first to reach him when he was thrown, the fresh bloom of her cheeks deepened. Her eyelids drooped for an instant "One can learn a good deal quickly, sometimes" she said. "Then added, for he had smiled again." "About horses." "And folks." He spoke quietly and lifted her gamut-tied hand, touching it lightly with his tips. So swift, so unexpected had been his helpless that she did not realize it until it was irreversibly paid. "Why, Collee." "Because you wasn't ashamed to help a guy in front of the others." "Please don't say 'buy.' And why should I be ashamed to help any of our loyal?' she said. Laughing. She had quite resented herself. "Course you wouldn't be. But this is kind of a 'good letter.' I was going to ask you to tell the letter to Overland Red. I told long that that I was coming." "We are sorry that you are leaving," said Louise, "I think, Walker said you had spoken to him." "It isn't the money. I could wait. But I don't feel like taking all that money and not doing anything for it. I guess Red needs too. But I say I'm a God to quit here now. Melbie I am. I like it here, the work and every thing." Samuel, watching them, saw a little give Louise a letter. He saw it took it in her wrist and took it forward toward the gate. As Collie came toward the corrals he noticed that Saunders had saddled the pinto Rally. He was a little surprised. Rally was Walter Stone's favorite saddle the horse and used by him but him. He knew his employer was absent. Perhaps Saunders had instructions to bring Rally to the station. Collie paid no further attention to Saunders until the latter came from his quarters with a coat and a blanket roll which he tied to the saddle. Then Collie became interested. He left the road and climbed the hill back of the corrals. He watched Saunders assemble the pinto as he opened the gate and spurred through without closing it. That was a little unusual. On a rise far below was Black Boyer loting along easily. Colle saw him stop and turn into the Old Meadow trail. He watched for Saunders to appear on the road below the ranch. Presently out from the shoulder of a hill kept Rally. Saunders was plying quirt and spur. The pluto was doing his best. "Something's wrong. I'll just take a chance." And Colle ran to the corral and roped the Yuma colt, for he had seen Saunders disappear on the Old Meadow trail. Collie whirled the pony round and down the hill. Through the gateway he thundered. The steel sinewed thanks stiffened and relaxed rhythmically as the hillside flew past. The Yuma colt, half wild, ran with great leaps that ate into space. They swept through the first ford. A thin sheet of water spread on either side of them. The outlaw fought the curb all the way up the hill beyond. Pebbles clattered from her hoops and spun skyward as she raced along the level of the hilltop. Down the next grade the pony awung, taking the turns with short leaps. On the crest Collie checked her. The road beyond, close to the valley, was empty. He examined the tracks entering the Old Meadow trail. He had not been mistaken. Saunders had 'ridden in. Mounting. Collie spurred through the greasewood, trusting to the pony's natural activity and sure footedness. Louthe, sitting on the dream rock in the old meadow, gazed out across the valley. Black lover stood near, with trailing baddle reina. Despite herself the girl kept recalling Colle's face as he had talked with her at the ranch. Admiration she had known before and many times, adoration never until that morning. For a long time she dreamed. The shadows of the grasswood lengthened. The air grew cooler. Louthe ended her solitude by saying alone: "Why, come!" "He's a nice boy, though. I do hope he will keep as he is." Boyar, lifting his head, nickered and was answered by Kelly, entering the meadow: Silent Saunders rode up hurriedly. "Why, Saunders—what is it? That's Rally! Were you going to meet Uncle Walter?" "No, miss. I'm in a harry. Just hand over that letter that young Colle give you at the ranch. I want it. I mean business." "You want the letter? What do you mean? What right have you?"— "No right. Only I want it. I don't want to make trouble." "You! A western man and speak that way to a woman! Saunders, I'm ashamed to think you ever worked for us." "Oh, I know you got nerve. But I'm in a burry. Hand it over. Then you can call me anything you like." "All right. I got to have it." The girl, her gray eyes blazing with indignation, backed away as he stroked toward her. "You'd dare, would you?" C. B. Brack She Cut Him Across the Face With Her Quilt. And as Samuel's laughed she cut him across the face with her quilt. His face strained with the red welt of the fawn hide; now white as he contri- ted his anger. He leaped at her and had his hands on her when she struck him against with all her strength. He staggered back, his hand to his eyes. A wild rush of hoofs, a shock, a crash, and he was beneath the plunging feet of the Anima coll. The pony flashed past her head forking up, because saw pigeon leap to the ground and come running back. Samuel, rolling to his side, reached for his bolster, when he saw that in Collie's hand which precluded fur- her argument. "Don't get up!" said Collie quietly. "I never killed a man, but I'm going to quack, if you lift a finger." Saunders, left still, Collie stopped around behind him. "Now, get up, slow," he commanded. When Saunders was on his feet Collie reached toward and secured his gun. "I'll send your check to the store," said Louise, addressing Saunders. "I shall tell Mr. Stone that I discharged you. I don't believe I had better tell the men about this." "Best it Saunders," said Collie, laughing. "You are leaving here afloat, which suits me fine. Red would be plumb happy to know it." "Red's goin' to walk into my lead some of these days." "That's some day. This is today," said Colla. Baunders, turning, gazed covetously at the photo Rally. Collie saw and smiled. "I missed twice. The third trick is goin' to be mine. Don't you forget that, Mr. Kid," said Saunders. "Oh, you here yet?" said Collie, and he was not a little gratified to notice that Saunders limped as he struck off down the trail. Louise drew off her gauntlets and tossed them on the rock. Collie saw the print of Saunders' fingers on her wrist and forarm. "I ought to 'a made him kneed down and ask you to let him live'" he said. "I was afraid at first. Then I was just angry. It was skeeling to see the marks grow red and swell on his face. I hit him as hard as I could, but I'm not sorry." "Sorry?" growled Collie. "He takes your brand with him. He didn't get the letter. I got to thank you a whole lot for that." "But how did he know I had it? What did he want with the letter?" "He saw me give it to you. He's one of the bunch, the Molaje bunch that's been trailing Red all over the country. When I redd disappeared up in those desert hills, I reckon Saunders must have got hold of a paper and read about the Betaway Here at the Moonstones. He just naturally came over here and got a job to see, if he couldn't trace Red." "You are thinking of joining Mr. Summerm at the claim?" "Yes. The eastern folks are gone now. I hate to go. But I got to get busy and make some money. A fellow hasn't much of a show without money these days." Louise was silent. She sat gazing across the valley. Collie approached her besitatingly. "I just got to say it—after all that's happened. Seems that I could, now." Louise pailed and flushed. "Oh Collie," she cried entreatingly. "We have been such good friends. Please don't spoil it all!" "I know I am a fool," he said, "or I was going to be. But please to take Boyar and go. I'll bring rally. I was wrong to think you would listen a little." But Louise remained sitting upon the rock as though she had not heard him. Slowly he stepped toward her, his spurs jingling musically. He caught up one of her gloves and turned it over and over in his fingers with a kind of clumsy reverence. "It mighty little—and there's the shape of your hand in it, just like it beads when you hold the reins. It seems like a thing almost too good for me to touch, because it means you. I know you won't laugh at me, either." Louise turned toward him. "No. I understand," she said. "Here was where hed and I first saw you to know, who you was. I used to hate folks that wore good clothes. I thought they was all the same, you and all that kind. But, no, it ain't no. You looked back once, when you were riding away from the jail that time. I was going to look for Red and not go to work at the Moonstone. I saw you look back. That settled it. I was proud to think you cried even anything for a tramp. I was mighty lonely then. Since I got to thinking I'd be somebody some day. But I can see where I stand. I'm a puncher, working for the Moonstone. You kind of liked me because I had hard luck when I was a kid. But that made me love you. It didn't wrong, I guess, to love something you can't ever reach up to. It didn't wrong to keep on loving, only its awful lonely ones not to ever tell you about it." "I'm sorry, Gillie!" and Louise gently. "Please don't be sorry. Why, I'm glad! Maybe you don't think it is the best thing in the world to love a girl. I don't ask anything but to just go on loving you. Seems like a man wants the girl he loves to know it, even if that is just all. You said, I love horses. I do. But loving you start me I love horses. Red and said once that I was just living like what I thought you wanted me to be. Reds, who when I take his time to it. But now I'm living the way I think I want to. I won't ask you to say you care. I guess you don't that way. But if I ever get rich then." "Well, you must not think I am different from any other girl. I'm just as solitary and stillborn as I can be. I almost feel unloved to love you think of it you do. Let's be silent about it. You know I like you. I'm glad you care for what you think I am." "That is it. You are always so kind to a fellow that it brings me feel meant to speak like I have. You listened and I am proud of that." He turned and smiled by Boyar's bride Marjorie. He winked at Yinan and Kaili. Shawna Cohen and the girl grinned the smile to the lips of the summit. Shawna they stopped down the descent into Mineola. At a land in the past the pioneer would tell that a well-bred and identically shaded mountain the girl and she stood away. He glanced up quietly. "No, I'm not about at the top of the mountain. He felt strongly pleased that he had taken away from him when he was the old friend ship. He put on a new and something even more important to the earth. They made the whole scene of our heart meet him with love and love. Her eyes were so bright and then blind. His eyes were with unintended beams. He left pounded until it almost chewed him. He bit his lips that he might be beaten. The glow of the evening sunlight on her hair. The tumble of her wrist as she held the tears in her apparent unconsciousness of gaze and things enthralled him. A smile being pounded him like a mist. Biting and battling all cleater thought. And because Louise knew his heart, knew that his homage was not of book, but of his very self, she fingered in the dream whose thread she might have snapped with a word, a gesture. Generously the art blamed herself that she had been the one to cause him They Rode Through a Vale of Enchanted. sorrow. She could not give herself to him, he his wife, as she knew he wished her to be. Yet she liked him more than she cared to admit. He had fought for her once and taken his punishment with a grin. She felt joy in his homage, and yet she felt humility. In what way, she asked herself, was she better, cleaner of heart, kinder or cleverer than 'Collie? Why should go He made distinctions in a breeding or wealth when a humane or physical excellence Leont so much more? "Collet!" she whispered, and the touch of her fingers on his arm was the touch of fire—"Collet." She drew one of her little grey gauntlets from her belt. "Here," she said, and the word was a curse. But he put the proffered token away from him with a trengling hand. "Don't!" he cried. I tried not to want you! I did try! This morning before I told you—I could have knelt me, prayed to the glove. But now, Louise, Louise Lacharme, I can't. That glove would burn me and drive me wild to come back to you." "To come back to you!" The words sung themselves through her consciousness. "Come back to you!" He was going away. "You care so much?" she asked. There was a new light in her eyes. Her face was almost colorless. So she had looked when Saunders threentened her. She awayed in the saddle. Colle's arm was about her. She raised one arm and flung it round his neck, drawing his face down to her trembling lips. Then she drew away, her face burning. Across the end of the canyon a vagrant sunbeam ran like a bridge of fairy gold. It polished the gray wall with a million particles of mellow fire. It flickered, flashed knew and lauded. The ponies drew apart. The cow Yuma grew restless. "Goalily!" estimated Leesse. "Like the sunshine!" he said pointing to the cliff. "It is gone!" She wilde period, shivering a little as the sun's draw down. "It will never be." He said, shudging. Without a word, the street closed. L. J. HAY Manufacturer of Medicine TO CURE ALL DISEASES 220 W.

In view of recent events the following formula overboard in a hotel veranda may be of interest: The Wilson waltz, one step forward, three steps backward, hesitate, then sidestep. The Administration is depressed by the reflection that under no circumstances can it postpone election day. Wilson insists that he will never recognize government by assassination, but he hasn't cut off relations with those who have associated Americans.

MEMBER All communications intended for publication should be sent as so as much as by Wednesday. Enclosed at the First Office at Richmond, Va. as second class mailer. I pray to God early and late. It will help you to withstand the forces of evil. Be sure you are right and that, you mean right, then fear no evil, but march onward. Some folks are so mean that you can see the meanness oozing out the porous of their skin. Lack of common sense is as much in evidence in some white folks as it is in some colored ones. Southern white folks have their peculiar ways, but if you make them your friends, they will stand by you to the end. Self respect and good manners will get you out of many close places and relieve you from many embarrassing situations. A colored citizen who has won the respect of the white and colored people of his community cannot be crushed by any action or orders from outside sources. Do not forget that! Some white folks, who may not have the nerve to come out and speak openly in your favor, can do you a world of good by the good things that they may speak privately about you We have been fighting the powers of evil for well enough thirty years. We are just a little bit tired, but we can go on lively gall now when the bugle calls. Some of our friends get uneasy about us at times, but we fear to danger. As long as we strive to do right, there can be nothing worse than death, and death ends all of our troubles. Colored folks, do not be discurraged. Raise your children in the fear of God and tell them the right way and show them the right path, even though they decline to follow your instructions. Be manly, be patriotic, be respectful Let the white people with whom you come in contact notice your good breeding, and be especially good natured and respectful to them When you do this regularly, you will follow the same line of actions to ward colored folks, and you will be able to get along easily in this world. Rev S. P. Harkins has filed a suit of $10,000 damages against Rev Du. R. H. Boyd, et al., for alleged defa- mation of character. This emphasizes the fact that the Baptists believe in fighting, while the sinners are find- ing their way to hell. Rev Du. R. H. Boyd is fighting, too, and so this worldline, which has crept into the church is affording satisfaction to the powers of evil. FRANCIN H. WARREN, Esq., the brilliant colored attorney of Detroit, Mich. has the unique distinction of having been nominated as candidate for state senator in the democratic senatorial primary held for the purpose. He won out over two white competitors. The friends of both of the white men seemed to prefer Mr. Warron as against either of the other two white candidates. Strange things are happ ning now, but there does not seem to be anything more strange than this. Attorney Warren is healthy and gives no sign of a desire to shirk the job. He has won the nomination and he will stand for the election. --- It looks very much now as though JUSTICE CHARLES EVANS HUGHEN will be elected President of the United States on the seventh of November There, can be no doubt or question but what PRESIDENT WOODROW WILSON has succeeded in putting more constructive legislation upon the statute books of the country than any other President since the time of PRESIDENT GEORGE WASHINGTON. DOG CONE IT ALL Another Stray! Why DO they hang around here? WATCHFUL WRITING TOO PRONO TO WORF —Cartoon by Wendell in Chicago Daily News The trouble is that this legislation has failed to effect the purposes for which it was enacted. The question of tariff has been discussed and it was alleged, that the lowering of duties upon imported articles would reduce the cost of commodities in this country, that what we eat, drink and wear would be cheaper. As a matter of fact, it has had the opposite effect and prices are higher now than ever before. When the tariff was reduced, the benefit did not reach down to the consumer, but tended to make the rich man richer and the poor man poorer. Theory has taken the place of practice and the results have been disappointing. President Wilson has kept us out of war, but we are paying war taxes, with no war. We are having our sons sent to the front, with no war. We are having business houses embarrassed and men in all avenues of industry handicapped by the sending of needed laborers to the border to lounge and to engage in military pursuits. PRESIDENT WILSON means well, no doubt, but he is an opportunist, a "trimmer," a politician as ephac as he is a state man. He makes promises and when he finds that he has made a posse the mistake, the disregards the promise he has made. He has surrounded himself in many businesses with a lot of who are incompetent for the job they hold. They draw salaries and they blunder on while the matriarch pays the cost of their expensive affairs. He may be elected President of the United States, but his disregard of vital fundamental principles would seem to say otherwise, and the outlook in the country is that the people have gained upon a change. It is now well-nigh universally conceded that New York State will go Republican. The Democratic managers are arguing that they can win without New York. They are claiming Ohio, Illinois and Pennsylvania. It must be admitted that if their claims are realized that they will win. But who believes that they will carry those States? The optimist in the Democrat party 14 indulging in "pipe dreams" and those kind of dreams have never carried an election or landed a candidate in the White House of the nation. YONKERS NOTES Mr. Willett, president of the Morpeth School, is the author of the Morpeth School's annual interim report on the benefit of the school, reported last Saturday in the school board meeting and was later sent to write an annual report. The night we took and stormy Mrs. Green and all our class at her post. Mr. John R. Green of the School, with an attentive student or graduate from Yorkers to Mount Vernon, N. Y., had a week. He was thrown in the air, his coat being in threads, but very fortunate to escape with most wrises and a general shake up, which we hope will not be serious. NATIONAL COLLEGE LEAGUE Thirty thousand college alumni have enrolled so far in the Hoghes National College League, 511 Fifth avenue, New York. The oldest living graduate of Brown University, which graduated Governor Hughes, enrolled this week. He is the lter, John Hunt of Springfield. Ohio, ninety-three years old, Brown, 1812. The league challenged the Woodrow Wilson College Men's League this week to join it in "having any reputable audit company in this city check up immediately from the original cards your actual enrollments of Princeton alumni and ours, your total enrollments and ours, and your enrollments from any college you may select and ours." The college men in the National Guard along the Mexican border are joining in drives, according to the officers of the league, and many have written in to signify their discontent with the Administration's handling of the Mexican situation. William R. Moody, son of Dwight Lyman Moody, the famous evangelist, wrote to the league offering his assistance in East Northfield, Mass., and said: "I am among those who feel very strongly that it would be a National disaster to have the present Administration continued another season, feeling deeply the illumination to which our country has been subjected in the sight of the world, by the lack of any foreign policy, and by the vacillation of its dealings." Housewives in need of pork recipes should address the Wilson administration. EDITORIAL COMMENTS. Mr. Wilson used four pens to affix his signature to the Adamson bill, a souvenir for each of the brotherhoods' chiefs. The public's souvenir will be in the form of an added tax amounting, say, to fifty million dollars a year, or fifty cents a head for every man, woman and child. T. R.'s grin when he compared Watchful Woollow unfavourably to Pontius Pilate was devoted by the censor. With Mr. Roosevelt likening his "neutrality" to that of President Wilson and the Houston Post coupling his most famous act with that of a Democratic Congress, the late Mr. Pontius Pilate must be having an uncomfortable time in his grave, if he has a grave. The President used four pens signing the increased wage law, highly representative of the different humors of his variable mind In speech to 2004 grocers at Nashville, Tenn., Mr. Hughes said: "We want honesty with respect to the ballot. I want an honest and a pure ballot. I say to you that I stand, if I stand for anything, for equal and exact justice to all. I stand for the maintenance of the rights of all American citizens regardless of race or color." The saddest and sortest people in the land are the negroes who voted for Wilson four years ago. And there were a lot of them. ELECTION OF HUGHES MEANS PEACE WITH HONOR—NOT WAR, NOT PEACE WITH INFAMY "We have found a recent day that the alternative of the policy of the present Administration is war. I think the alternative of the present Administration is peace with home. I am a man devoted to the pursues of peace. We cherish the ideals of peace. We cherish the threat of aggression. We are not cowards, women are not exploiters but we are Armed men and American rights must be maintained throughout the world. That is the cornerstone of our security, that is the essential pillar of peace. We are not exploiters but we say these are worthless things that we have been deprived of a posed of national homeland. "Worst citizens have been murdered, their property destroyed and our community is interrupted. The alternative of a weak and vandalizing policy is not war; it is a firm foundation on known rights in a world where all nations desire a friendship and we desire the friendship of all, and where only a sensible blunder could threaten us into crises." — Charles E. Houghton at Union League Hall, the city in New York city to bear it. "Cumberland, Va., October 23, 1916. Mr. John Mitchell, Jr., Dear Sir: I am an "Old Normal" girl but my bark is run on rock and it seems in all this world there is no one to lend me the push to get to sell again; No one to help me help myself. I have tried from preachers to social uplift workers to the United States President and Senator. It seems to me social uplift is a mockery and preaching a farce, and no reality in religion. The Afro-American League, of Westmoreland County, hold their second annual convention in Greensburg on Thursday last, in Odd Fellows Hall. The meeting was called to order by Warrick Anderson, and addresses were made by Mayor Snyder and Col. Robbins White, of Greensburg, and Mr. Alex, Panghaum, of Monessen, Pa., one of the leading colored business men, made the response. Many out-of-town guests participated. John S. Kidd, 24 years old, an Alabama colored man, who recently came to Monongahela with a construction gang, and being employed with several hundred others on the erection of the new pumping station of the Edgar Thompson Steel Works, and housed in the Monongahela river at the foot of 11th Street, Braddock, started out Saturday night to "clean up" for all Northern Negroes. He was hurled from the barge and was saved from serious injury at the hands of the Northern colored men in the job, only by the arrival of the police, who arrested him. He is now in the hospital. The Freeman's and Planet's correspondent was the guest of Mr. and Mrs. Peter Saunders at their residence, 468 9th Street, on Sunday last. Musical selections were rendered by Miss Eva Saunders and James Warmack. A pleasant afternoon was enjoyed. Robert James, colored, was sent to fall in default of $200 bond on Friday last, by Justice J. Clyde Miller. Are not my three girls worth helping before they sink or fall? Or do they get more credit in Heaven for getting them out of the lowest depths of degradation? Are my four little boys worth considering now or would they be better after they have committed some crime? I earnestly wish you would read this through. I know if I continue to cook Madam ——— meals I will have three substantial meals but it is small comfort to me when I know my little ones are needing one or more meals each day. Nor is my burden lighter when I go home at seven P. M. and my ten-year-old boy, who is foreman on a paper and who has been in a print shop since he was five years old, is still held at work and not allowed, time even to come to go with me home. Inactivity has one eight-year-old boy down with articular rheumatism. The ten-year-old is stoop-shouldered. But to work, I do not object. I only ask to get in position to demand regular intermission and see that they have it and three wholesome simple meals regularly each day. I cannot, unless I furnish them. Ask Mr. _____ how we are herded into one room, how I was anxious to have his agency to help out an existence here. Now the owner has added on more room but we are not to use any of the added room, my husband forbids. My children, if they dare to show love and respect for their mother, are cursed or worse for it, and if they show resentment for hearing their mother cursed for going out to work for that which she was told she could not get at home, more curses. My oldest girl is twelve years old beginning to make what other people have and what is lacking at home. Just joined church and is asking mother for somewhere to say, "Our Father which art in Heaven," in concert and not hear "G — — — — —" at the end; where prayers instead of curses may be had in mornings, and I want to be equal to that demand NOW. I can do it and make good. I want a poultry and egg farm. I can plow and work. I can buy a place here and fix to keep Summer boarders, run my poultry farm, regulate my children's work hours, give them decent sleeping quarters, if I can borrow money, to start out. I would buy for cash and fix what I need to have and give a dood of trust on it all to secure the lender. Would not it be fair? Is that so unbusinesslike? That is what I am asking. I do not wish to enter deeper into the family affairs than this, but if it is necessary I will. Please answer. At least $1,500 will do all I need and all I ask is time and I will pay it all back. Please show me something. DR. TIMMS INSTALLED AS THE PASTOR OF COOL SPRING BAPTIST CHURCH . Franklin Va.

Miss Annie Saunders will shortly open a mail order business for ladies' goods. Mr. Alex.

He is the president of the Monesan Literary Society, who will tender an excellent program at the A. M. E. Church this (Thursday) night. Some people get sore because the Planet's correspondent tells the truth when writing news. There is one thing sure: there is no use sprinkling flowers and cologne where soot and stench should be; so get a copy of the Planet every week from James Reasby, General Agent, 306 McKean Avenue. I see Jim Gill has started tearing the paper off the walls of the Orioles Club rooms. I know it won't be long now before the place will be rederated. After three days, in jail, the law took its course with that young man who acted so disgraceful to the race on Saturday week last. Too bad that Titus did not get those two fellows that wanted to start a fight at the Saturday night dancing class at the skating rink a couple of weeks ago. Get a copy of the Planet each week and know what's going on—at 306 McKean Avenue, Donora. Uree, the proprietor of the restaurant which was recently raided by the police in this city, only got four month's and costs. Very lucky and wise in the young man to plead guilty and save the county the expenses of a trial, for there was certainly a bunch of indictments framed up for him had he not. Milton Johnson has been on the slick list for the last two weeks. We wish him good luck and a speedy recovery. We notice "Windy" had his rain-coat on last Thursday. I wonder what the victim's disease was—natural death—or was it an accident? Rev. Tautlon, of the First Baptist Church, was a caller at the Equitable Newspaper Exchange on Thursday last and complimented the directors, Messrs. Madison and Reaby, upon their new enterprise; also wishing them unbounded success. Mr. Oliver Manley and E. Datcher were visitors at the Orioles club rooms on Thursday last. Harry Harrington, colored, who held up and robbed Ralph St. Clair of Pittsburgh on October 4, was sentenced to no less than, eight nor more than ten years, in Criminal court on Friday last. Some minksters ought to stop "bull dozing" their congregations, because they don't attend his church. That method, to the wise-thinking man, is antique and he should remember the old saying, "you can catch more files with molasses than you can with vinegar," and, as my mother used to say, "you can lead a horse to water, but you can't make him drink." Judre J. C. Haymaker, in criminal court in Pittsburgh on Friday last, sentenced Chas Buckner, colored, to three months in the workhouse, for obtaining a fellow workman's pay envelope by misrepresenting him self. A grand celebration and parade was held under the auspices of the local judge K of Pis. of Greensburg last week. A grand parade was given at 3:30 and many out of town visitors were seen. The Colored Newspaper Exchange wishes to thank the many visiting friends for their appreciation they have shown by stopping in the new office. The Richmond Planet is the paper that should be in every home in Donora, and the agents are doing everything possible to do so in the county of a few weeks. We feel safe in saying that the Richmond Planet will be found all over. till they till the valley.

At Winston-Salem, Pa. He is given a stipend with the room of Linda Johnson, held in the 6th Avenue, and to have a spare wrist watch. Samuel Gondek, white, on his way to work in the wry mill, was struck Wednesday morning last, by an automobile driven by Earl Cuthbert, of Wobster, the accident occurring at Meldon Avenue and 6th Street. Cuthbert turned out to poke a car in front of him, hitting Gondek. The Cuthbert car dashed across the street, bringing up against a pole before the Indiana Hotel, knocking down the pole. Three of Gondek's ribs were broken and he was taken to the Monongahela hospital. The Ladies Mite Society met at the Quinn Chapel A, M. E.

Some people smile sometimes at the stories of the lures which endanger young girls; they seem to think that is a girl's fault if she attracts unwelcome attention. It is noticeable that in most cases the men you would least suspect of any wrong intentions are the most fake. The firtiatios men are not the most dangerous, for their cars are well on the table, and all a girl has to do is to say "NO." It the grandfatherly old boys and the man who wants to be a brother, that lead a self-respecting girl into misfortune.

The Pastor learned that the Church started from whiskey selling and that certain elements in the Church were in an uproar for over twenty years now.

The funeral services of Mr. George Stanfield took place Thursday evening, two o'clock, at the Mt. Zion Baptist Church, the pastor, Rev. W. W. Hicks officiating. He spoke in most commendable terms of the life and character of the deceased and highly commended the young men of Roanoke to take example or him. The funeral was very largely attended, as the deceased was widely known throughout the city, having been born here. The floral designs were very beautiful. The efficient undertaker Mr. W. F. Highes had charge of the burial. The family wishes to extend thanks to all who assisted and loaned their sympathy in the hours of distress and trouble. Mrs. Jones will leave for her home in Pittsburgh, Pa. October 29th at 12:30 o'clock. The Revival Services at the First Baptist Church closed Monday evening with Baptizing and a Convert's Rally. More than two hundred souls were happily converted during these meetings. The Church was crowded to overflowing and many were turned away. Dr Butler, the Evangelist, gave some very wholesome instructions to the Convert's as to Christian Growth and Christian Living, saying among other things that he was glad no pews were broken during the meetings, yet all who came felt the power of God but worshipped Him with the Spirit and with the Understanding also. Mr. John H. Smith, the Singer of Louisville, Ky. is the most effective Gospel Singer that Roanoke has ever listened to and has been in great demand by both white and colored.

A "Nail Service" was given at the First Baptist Church by Mr. Smith on Friday evening and was attended by the pupils and teachers of the two colored schools in a body, which filled the church. The service was both interesting and instructive. Miss Eva Allen, of 716 Galinsboro avenue, left the city Sunday, October 22nd for Pittsburgh. Pa.

Declaring that the campaign of 1910 is as important as the campaign of 1896 and resembles that campaign in that the Democratic party and its candidate are seeking a vote of power for disingenuous, unsound, but alluring reasons, William II.

The power they acquire may, however, become of great as to tempt to serious abuse and public injury, and they have done so. Hence, we have had the anti-trust law and the interstate commerce law, directed chiefly against combinations of capital but effecting in some measure combinations of labor. Late leaders have sought exemption from such laws as a privileged class, and in some cases they have been successful. While Mr. Wilson in one of his memorandums attached to an appropriation bill awarded his opposition to such class legislation, he united with the Democratic Congress in passing, at the demand of the unions, the Clayton Act, which, the labor leaders claim, takes unions out of the limitations of the Trust Act. Unwise subservience to the demands of leaders of organized labor finds its crowning instance, however, in Mr Wilson's dealing with the threatened strike of the Railway Orders of conductors, engineers, trainmen and switchmen. The Orders claim to control 400,000 men, who run the freight and passenger trains of the country, which constitute the arterial circulation of commerce, and are necessary not only to the business but to the health and life of the people. Were these men able to tie up the railways of the country, as they said they could and would, it would mean enormous loss in business, and great profit to the public. It would not antanUros.

The Railway unions said to the railway president: "We wish an eight-hour day with ten hours' pay, and if we work more than eight hours, we demand 60 per cent, more an hour for the extra hours. If you do not give us this, we will not only injure you, but we will bring disaster to the country." The railway managers refused the demands, but offered to submit it to arbitration. They said it would increase their cost of operation $00,000,000, and that this would have to come out of the pockets of the railway stockholders, by a reduction of profits, or out of the shipping public by an increase of rates. The labor leaders said they had had arbitration in the past and that it was not satisfactory, that now unless their demands were fully granted, no power under heaven could prevent the strike, with its disastrous consequences. Under the duress of the threat, the President of the United States and Congress of the United States succumbed. It was one of the greatest national humiliations to which the people of this country have ever been subjected. It struck more a blow at the principle of arbitration for the settlement of industrial disputes. Mr. Wilson as a publicist attacked the enactment of a federal child labor law as an absurd extravagance, and a departure from constitutional limitations, and now within the last sixty days he has personally visited Congress to urge the adoption of exactly such a measure. anUmbrella Company will go to reduce its length and to the Umbrella.

Dixon preached at the Baptist Church Sunday, arriving from Alexandria on the morning train. He preached a splendid sermon from the subject, "Religion"—Luke, 10-42. At two o'clock he preached the funeral of Stater Maria Lee, one of the members of the Primitive Baptist Church. Mrs. Lee departed this life Friday morning, at the age of 63 years. She had been a consistent Christian for 35 years. She leaves to mourn their loss one son, one grandson, and a host of relatives and friends. A good woman gone.

At 8 o'clock he was at his post of duty, using the 106th Psalms 7th verse: "Our Athers understood not thy wonders in Egypt; they remembered not the multitude of The Sea, but provoked Him at the Sea—even at the Red Sea." The sermon was full of thought. During this service a young man who is aspiring for the ministry, in the person of Brother Chas. L. Randall, of Washington, came in.

WE PROSPER BECAUSE THE HOME MARKET IS OUR OWM When Peace Comes and Foreign Commercial Confederations Look Hungrily Toward America. We Should Deserve What Happens to Us If Provision Is Not Made Against Disaster by a Tariff Quite Different From the Underwood Folly There is the particular subject with which the United States must deal in order to meet the record in production and trade which will will accomplish the chief of the great war. That is the Tariff. It there is very general agreement that when the demand is increased to the army in the field has been great numbers of men will return to productive employment in the army and great numbers of open positions are thrown out of employment and will have to find other work which will have little money to be heavily in debt. She will be using strong compulsion to pay her debts and selling goods. She will be on a basis of strict nomination in her organization and she can sell well cheaply. The United States will have an atomic defense of munitions and vast military power. Our enemies have a large base attractive to them. It will be far from the other the war. It will be a great that even England will have a protective tariff, that will meet prots of war. What will be the result? We will protect ourselves from the lunar invasion and our work will be 1.

The case was found to be the first of the case. Many mills and factories were closed or running but a port of the time. Great numbers of laborers were thrown out of employment, and the market for American products was still further reduced by the destruction of their purchasing power. Enterprise halted, discouraged and apprehensive of the future. New enterprises were no longer attempted. Old plants were no longer enlarged. The Industrial war in Europe began. That war furnished and continues to furnish to American production the most absolute protection because it has to be great a degree stopped proofs in Europe. So long as the war lasts our producers have practically no competition in our home market, for Europe does not make the goods to sell here. At the same time, while the war lasts our producers, have an enormous market in Europe for the things that Europe can't produce in sufficient quantities. When the war is over that condition will cease, and we shall deserve what happens to us if we do not provide against that time by a tariff quite different from the Underwood tariff and made by men who do not consider a tariff for revenue only an article of religious faith. - From the Speech Elthan Root Delivered at Carnegie M. New York City, October 8, 1910. --- Editorial Comments If the Democratic leader who advocates putting dyes on the free list to encourage the industry were a surgeon his method of setting a broken limb would be to amputate the patient's leg at the neck. Optimism is what makes the Democratic party, which has fooled some of the people only three times in fifty years and has never yet fooled all of the people one of the time, think that it can now fool all of the people all of the time. President Wilson hasn't been able to figure out yet whether he is going to be on the stump for one. If the paper shortage comes much more seriously the first thing we know the authorities of the State Department will be coming to an abrupt stop. Then, according to the Democratic Party, book that among the more important constituents of the Wilson Administration may be mentioned Walter Charliss and the Ten Commandments. Secondly the field converses gibly in terms of blood until it comes time to write a campaign contribution, when it does of that all he really knows about that matter is $2000.

WILSON TOOK PLEAS URE IN EXTENDING THE HAND OF WELCOME TO CARRANZA One of these "unrestricted" acts was committed in September 29th, when some of Carranza's soldiers captured an American trooper, killed him and cut off his head and ears. Exactly twenty days later, on October 10th, Mr. Wilson expressed "pleasure" in informing Carranza that he recognized him. Since the recognition, Carranza's troops by his orders have treacherously attacked and murdered American soldiers on at least two occasions. If the acts above recited—which are merely samples of the course of conduct Carranza has already pursued—do not constitute "intraguard and assassination, treachery and violence," then the words have lost their meaning. Mr. Wilson took "pleasure" in "extending the hand of welcome" to Carranza, whose own hand is red with the blood of murdered men and women of his own nation, and whose hands, unlike the hands of Huberta, were also red with the blood of murdered Americans, of murdered American civilians, and of murdered American soldiers wearing the American uniform. But President Wilson cared as little for the deaths of these men as he cared for the honor of the uniform. He with "pleasure" "extended the hand of welcome" to the man guilty of their murder.—From the Speech of Colonel Roosevelt at Battle Creek, Michigan, in Behalf of Mr. Hughea. ```markdown ``` The Administration ought to be able to take a comfortable rest.

With the department more than paying expenses, it would seem that the executive officials could afford to keep on the payroll members of the National Guard who responded when the President called out the Organized Militia for duty on the border. Evidently Mr. Wilson has made up his mind about something. He refers in his memorandum to "the sovereign authority of Mexico." He may have decided to whom he was referring. Less than two years ago he was not sure whether it was the soldier bandit Villa or the grueer grafter Carranza. It's not to be wondered that Thomas A. Edison favors Wilson's reelection.

SATURDAY.....OCTOBER 28, 1916 AVIATOR KILLED IN AIRSHIP SMASH Student at Essington School Crashes to Death. Society Man Was Taking Last Trip Over the Delaware to Qualify for a License. Alexander Brown, noted polo player and wealthy aviator, of Risemont, Pa. was instantly killed at the aviator's school at Esington, below Philadelphia, when his machine balked in mid- air. The hydroplane skidded at an altitude of seventy-five feet above the Delaware river as Mr. Brown, miscalculating the distance to the surface made too sharp a turn as he headed toward the Pennsylvania shore near the end of Tinicum Island. With the planes almost vertical and offering virtually no resistance, the machine suddenly fell, plunging to the water and diving with terrific force below the surface. Mr. Brown was almost instantial killed. It is beloved. Mechanicians in a motorboat, which was following the aeroplane on its pilot's course, rushed to the scene and divers recovered the body, which was crushed by the engine. The body of Mr. Brown, who was forty-two years old, was taken to Darby to Coroner Charles H. Brees, of Darby, who will hold an inquest later. The flight was the final one of a series that would have qualified Mr. Brown for a diploma of the Philadelphia School of Aviation. He was making the turns on the pilot's course when the machine wheeled too sharply. Mr. Brown is survived by his wife and three sons. It is understood that Mrs. Brown was opposed to his activity in aviation lines and always feared that he would meet with a trafic death. Robert Johnson, head instructor of the aviation school, described the accident. "I noticed something was wrong," he said. "It looked as though a different man was flying entirely. He was making the rounds of the lot's course. I noticed that he was taking the turns too sharply, the angle of the machine giving him a support from the air." "Right at the end of Thuleum Island," continued the instructor, the turned too sharply. The machine started to fall from the height of seventy-five feet. Mr. Brown was dead when we reached him." COAL CO TO SUE STRIKERS Declares They Broke Agreement and Are Liable for Damages. The Rochester and Pittsburgh Cow and Coke company, whose mines are Punzantawney, Pa., are closed by a strike of 2500 miners who presented a new scale after the company had signed the scale of the United Mine Workers of America, anounced that suit would be filed against each miner, and the local unions of which they are members, asking damages because of the suspension. The company's lawyers are framing the petition, which alleges that the men violated their agreement signed on April 15 last in Philadelphia, when they quit work demanding a new scale. It contends that the United Mine Workers are just as liable for breach of contract as any responsible corporation or individual. The suit officers of the company said, was biased on the decisions in the Danbury batters' case. STRIKING MINERS MOVE AWAY Demand Right to Shoot Coal in Way Contrary to Law. Many of the 1500 bituminous coal miners in the East Broad, Top region near Huntingdon, Pa., who have been on strike, two weeks, are moving to other fields. The strikers demand the right to shoot the coal as they please, but as the method they have adopted is contrary to law, the companies are powrless to acquiesce. Efforts by the state authorities to adjust the differences have failed. Five Hurt Fighting Mine Fire. An explosion of gas occurred in the gangway of the fifth lift of the Primrose vein of Lyle colliery at Pottisville, Pa., and five of the men engaged in fighting the fire were burned, two of them seriously.

On the Serrama front there is activity. River floods are intertwined with the movement of troops.

Storm swept Lake Erie gave in another fragment of the story its "black Fell"—another was pounded to pieces in the water, fg gate, and grinding water carrying twenty-one men to the deaths. The last vessel is the Clyde land owned what he called James H. gate. Its long survivor, adrift for a little four and a half hours on a tide brought the story alive. Half from two nights and a day spent tured and tinned by the seas, he was carried off a rescue ship at Cumberland Ohio. He is Captain Walter Grawlaw, Cleveland, master of the vessel which went down at 10 o'clock a day night off Long Point, Canada, post Erie. Every one of the crew wore two one perched on the instant the big boat founded in the storm and two added to the roll when exhaust exposure and the rotations way washing over the roll that carried their stomach washed them off w/ their stomach gave way. The two steamer Maritime and Rescuer No. 2 picked up the captain off Dend a Canada, opposite Cleveland. The Colgate went down the air of what came to be known as "Fifth Friday" in maritime circles. Steam were lost when the steamer, Filer so in Lake Erie on Friday. Only Canada, Matttson was saved. Earlier that sat- storm night the steamer Marshal F. Butters founded, but its crew thirteen men was saved. Less than an hour after the Pile sank the Colgate, by far the largest of the three victim vessels, we down miles away. The twenty-one her crew who died raised "Black Friday's" sea casualty list on Lake Erie to twenty seven. Grashaw, who had been master of the Colgate for only two weeks, was able to tell where his ship had run and that his crew had been lost. The he became unconscious from the reaction of his long fight for life, an remained so during the six-hour trifle of the rescue ship to Comcast. It is in a hospital there, his wife at his bedside, in a critical condition. Captain Grashaw could be seen by his rescuers prostrate on the raft number hands wrapped around the ropes twined across it, his body lasting in the waves. His fight at the moment, to hold out until help arrived was as nothing compared to his strut gle and that of his companions during the previous thirty-four hours. Negres Kill Policeman. John L. Bolsser, a Pennsylvania railroad special policeman was killed, and Harry L. Chubb Harrisburg, Pa., also a special policeman, dangerously wounded by two negroes whom they were attempting to arrest near West Palyview for illegal train riding. A pose of railroad employees and residents of the neighborhood was hastily organized and chased two negroes to the shore of the Susquehanna river, where they were arrested. They were immediately taken to the hospital and confronted with Chubb. The railroad officer asserted that one negro, who gave the name of Archie Miller, of Charleston, S. C., had done the shooting. Miller admitted that he had shot several times. The other negro, who gave the name of Joseph Fletcher, of Greenville, S. C., denied shooting. Both admitted that they had thrown away revolvers. Ask Aid for War Victims. Governor Brumbaugh brings a press lamination to the people of Pennsylvania urging them to help the Armenians and Syrians who are facing famine as the result of the war. The proclamation follows: "Whereas, it has been brought to my attention anew that more than four million people, non-caucasian war-oppressed, living in Armenia and Syria, are in dire distress, factional, disease and death as they collect over their stricken in response to the call of these people for war. I should touch every philanthropic in patriotic heart, and I cannot, a killer people of Pennsylvania to make such contributions as the provisional God and their own industry has made possible to succer these most deeserving people." Man Frightened to Death. A page of a man literally frightened to death was reported at Newport R. I. Gustav Ljunvall went to Brenton Reef lightship as an assistant keeper that Wednesday, but before he had time to become accustomed to his sun roundings the wind became a pale, as compelled by great acents. In a fright he tried to jump overboard. His vengeance increased and the crew, after struggle, put him in an improvised straightjacket and kept him there until he died Saturday. To Be Paid for Studying Following a conference between Vice President W. F. Roberts, of the Bethlehem Steel company, on Superintendent A. H. Blythe, of the South Bethlehem, Pa., public schools, the school board decided to add a four year industrial course to the curriculum of the high school. This action is perhaps the most important ever taken by the school board, and is unique in that the students who take the course will study part of the day in various department of the great steel plant to gain practical knowledge, and part of the day in the new $185,000 high school, where theory will be studied, and they will be paid for doing so. The lad can stay in school, and at the same time actually serve an apprentice in any department of the steel works they have a bent for, and while at service receive wages. Woman Commits Suicide in Prison. Prison officials in Treaden, N. J. refused to permit Anna Ricket to wear fancy clothing she brought to the prison, and she committed suicide by hunging. The woman was serving a sentence of four to seven years for far more committed in Essex county. She came to the prison January 29, 1915, and had been troublesome since her incarceration. The woman engaged in a controversy with the matron, over wearing the prison garments. Later Headcoach Richard Hueche admonished her for abusive talk to the matron. She was found about an hour afterward dead on her cot. She had chosen to death with a stirr of muslin pulled tightly about her neck. Pennsylvania's Wheat Crop Pennsylvania's wheat, rye, oats and buckwheat crops failed in Iowa in early estimate made in April, curtailing a summary of crop reports issued by the state department of agriculture. The wheat crop is estimated at 35,070,000 bushels, against 34,900,000 last year. Rye is estimated at 34,400,000 bushels, compared with 34,200,000 last year. The oat crop is estimated at 32,570,000 bushels, against 32,500,000 last year. Late estimates put the buckwheat at 35,000,000 bushels, with fallows, as the figure for the corn crop of 45,000,000 bushels are detected. --- Girl, 13, Killa Father Lena Hammill left little, care was taken to follow her with her father, Frank Hammill.

HARVEY REDHOT FOR HUGHES Espousal by Distinguished Editor of the Cause of the Republican Candidate a Significant Campaign Feature. ORIGINAL WILSON BOOSTER He Takes This Action Not Because He Is the Victim of Ingratitude But Because Wilson-Stands for Wilson First and Col. Harvey Cannot Assist in the Betrayal of His Country for the Gratification of Personal Ambition—A Democrat's Patriotic Stand. The avowal of the cause of Mr. Hughes by Colonel George Harvey is one of the distinct features of the present campaign. It would be significant in itself that a man of his prestige, who had always trained with the Democratic party, had espoused the cause of the Republican candidate. But in Mr. Harvey's case the significance is very much greater, as well as the importance of the event. He has been not only a Democrat, but a Wilson Democrat. Moreover, he was the first man of prominence to advocate the election of Woodrow Wilson as President, and for many years one of the closest friends and advisors of the present occupant of the White House. Mr. Harvey not only proposed Mr. Wilson for the Presidency, but an early as 1910 interested United States Senator, a Democratic leader of New Jersey, in Mr. Wilson, and this resulted in the Wilson nomination and election as Governor of New Jersey. PAGE SEVEN Mr. Harvey not only comes out for Mr. Hughes, but gives very intelligent reasons for his action in the current number of his "North American Review." In his judgment there are two vital questions to be answered before election. One is, which of the two great parties at this particular juncture in our progress as a nation is the better equipped and the more likely to render the highest public service? The other is, which of the two designated leaders is the more certain to preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States? Such an issue as the Democrats claim, that Mr. Wilson has kept us out of war and therefore is entitled to re-election, is Grushed aside as something that has no proper place in the mind of the voter of this year. In Mr. Harvey's judgment, only the most insane partition would venture to sing gest a possibility of Mr. Wilson or Mr. Hughes inclining or inviting war with any European or Asiatic Power, and therefore there is no fair issue between them on this question. There are three elements that are involved in the answers to these two questions, those of military and industrial preparations, government by and for the people and national honor and opportunity. So far as all of these are concerned, the answer is the same: Mr. Hughes is the man who should be chosen from each and every standpoint—both as the representative of the Republican party and as an individual. The best interests of the country are to be served by his election. Mr. Harvey calls attention to the fact that the utter absence of self-seeking on the part of M. Hughes throughout his entire career, confirms the belief that he does, in fact, from the very nature of his being, stand for "America first." On the other hand, no less surely and most disappointingly, happenings of the past two years culminating in the betrayal of his country for the gratification of personal ambition, prove incontestably that Mr. Wilson stands for Wilson first. That is Mr. Harvey's opinion. In his judgment WILSON STRIKES WHEN THE IRON 18 COLD President Wilson refused to speak in Independence Hall on the one "hundred, and twenty-eighth anniversary of the signing of the Declaration of Independence in that hall, and he so refused because inasmuch as over one hundred of our men, women and children had just been murdered on the high seas he regarded it as "the very moment when he would not care to arouse the sentiment of patriotism." Mr. Wilson has a positive genius for striking when the iron is cold and fearing to strike when the iron is hot. If one hundred and twenty-eight years ago Washington and Jefferson, and the other men who signed the Declaration of Independence had felt the same way about patriotism, and the same way about fighting as Mr. Wilson does, we would never have had a country. Had Lincoln felt the same way, there would be no such thing as the American Republic now in existence.—From the Speech of Colonel Roosevelt at Battle Creek, Michigan, in Behalf of Mr. Hughes. ```markdown ``` ```markdown ``` WILSON FORMERLY ASSAILED THE LABOR UNION. The President is now a candidate for office and speaks well of labor. Until he became a candidate for office, and as long as he was President of the University, he, with entire safety, ignored or assailed the labor Unions, indeed, he was then that bitter, ungenerous, and often unjust critic. At the People's Forum on February 25, 1905, he said: "Labor Unions drag the highest man to the level of the lowest." In an address at a dinner in the Waldorf-Astoria on March 18, 1907, in speaking of the capitalists, he said: "There is another equally formidable enemy to equality and betterment of opportunity, and that is the class formed by the labor organizations and leaders of this country." In a letter written January 12, 1909, he said: "I am a fierce partisan of the open shop." In June of the same year, speaking at Princeton, he said: "The usual standard of the employ in our day is to give as little as he may for his wages. Labor is standardized by the trade unions and this is the standard to which it is made to conform. I need not point out how economically disastrous such a regulation of labor is. The labor of America is rapidly becoming unprofitable under this regulation. Our economic supremacy may be lost because the country grows more and more full of unprofitable servants." I have no question that when Mr. Wilson thus speaks he expressed his sincere convictions. Less than two years later he was in public life and immediately his attitude changed. There is no reason to believe that his convictions changed. From the Speech of Colonel Rosevelt at Battle Creek, Michigan, in Berthalf of Mr. Hughes. "President Wilson settled himself in his chair." News, item. Well, he has settled something, anyhow. PHILADELPHIA — FLOUR—Qulet Winter clear, $6¢; 6.50; city mall $8.75¢; 9.25.
