A WORD OF WARNING
A WORD OF WARNING
VIRGINIA SEMINARY GRADUATES AND BENEFACTORS SHOULD NOT PERMIT DR. BOYD TO USE THEM.
Don't Split the State Organizations of Virginia and Pennsylvania.
(By W. H. Moses, D. D., Zion Baptist Church, Philadelphia, Pa.)
(1) The Union-Review shows that Dr. Boyd and his son, Henry Allen, are attempting to split the Baptists of Virginia and Pennsylvania by endeavoring to take advantage of some misunderstanding between some of the Virginia Seminary "boys," who had agreed to go to Kansas City to see if they could not help unify the Baptist forces, and some of whom at the last moment thought it beat not to go to Kansas City at all; among whom was my brother, Dr. S. A. Moses, who had urged Rev. Bowling and Rev. Madison and King to go with him to Kansas City, and at the last moment, went together to the Savannah Convention. (I say Dr. Boyd and Henry Allen, because no one takes Brother Frank very seriously, as being the far away pastoral editor of the Reviews.)
(a) The article stupidly attempts to array A. A. Galyn, W. D. Woods, J. H. Burks, C. E. Jones, and R. H. Bowling and T. J. King against S. A. Moses, W. H. Moses, J. M. Moses, W. F. Graham, John Mitchell, Jr. Lewis Stokes, Austin, and other benefactors and graduates of Virginia Seminary.
(b) He has more than once attempted to stir up jealousy by trying to make it appear that the Moses Brothers and their friends are attempting to dictate what Virginia Baptists should do in National affairs simply because, after I exposed Dr. Boyd's Board's attempt to take the publishing plant from the Baptist denomination by using us who had opposed the Morrilla administration as a blind. I urged my brother in Virginia as I did all over the country, not to allow Dr. Boyd to use our attempt to help regulate the National Convention, for the purpose of making his "get away" with the people's publishing plant, which we were all trying to save.
(1.)
If Dr. Royd succeeds in splitting the Virginia Seminary graduates and the organizations of Virginia and Pennsylvania, where most of them are pastoring, then Royd must be crowned king of splitters and go down in Baptist history as the most monumental disorganizer of Negro Baptists of his day and generation.
(1) Virginia Theological Seminary and college graduates, and the members and friends of the Virginia Baptist State Convention are proverbially loving and loyal to each other, and to their State organizations.
(a) President Calvin has been a bosom friend of W. H. Moses and the Moses brothers for nearly a quarter of a century, and two of them have pastored with him the greater part of his ministry, and they have never had any semblance of a misunderstanding on any proposition at any time. R. C. Woods and J. C. Austin have been the beloved successors of Dr. Moses and one of Dr. Hall, each always using his influence for the benefit of the others. If Royd can separate that bunch by trying to play each against the other, he is some splitter, for fair!
(b) Then there is Samuel Moses and T. J. King, and Bowling, and Madison, and Jones, and the other Moses brothers, and Burk, and Drake, and Road, and Hall, and Austin, John Mitchell, Jr., Graham, Scott, Ashby, Tarrte, Johnson, Hubert, Terrell, White, Brown, Pannell, Woods, and dozens of other pastors and graduates of the Virginia Baptist Seminary, and friends and members of the State conventions of Virginia, Pennsylvania, New York, and other places, are bound to gather by love and common interests, which, in my opinion, are dearer than anything Boyd has done or can do, and stronger than any national issue. If Boyd can separate them and use them to wreck and neglect the work which they have labored together to build all these years, then Boyd is the slitter of all splitters.
(2) But the graduates of Virginia Theological Seminary and College are not the only members of the State conventions of Virginia, Tennessee, Pennsylvania, Maryland and New York and the New England States.
(a) There is a majority of other pastors from other schools pastoring in this territory mentioned, who have no notion of allowing the brethren to split up over Boyd's affairs. They are loyal to all the denomination waited.
(b) Virginia Seminary has too much at stake in Virginia and Pennsylvania and too much regard for their brethren and the determination to dismantle the wishes of their brethren and benefactors, and allow Board
to use the Seminary men as a wedge to split the Northeast and Atlantic Coast Baptist organizations.
(II.)
I do not believe that Dr. Boyd can either split us or get any of our support or attendance at his Boyd-Jones Convention, which is to meet in Georgia next year.
(1) Boyd does not understand either the independence or hopeless purpose of Virginia Seminary graduates as a whole, or the Baptists of this section.
(a) Men educated under Hayer and trained under Fox, Bowling, Graham and their successors, have the reputation of doing their own thinking, and acting out in the open on all public questions. You may not know that neither of my brothers or Bowling, Madison, nor King, nor any other individual in Virginia or Pennsylvania, was ever approached by me and persuaded to attend the Convention at Savannah in September, they decided to go on to Kansas City and fight it out with you and make you surrender that publishing board to the people and at the last moment some of them decided it was not worth while. They are taking your measure now, Dr. Boyd; not using the "tape," but of either W. H. Moses or "Editor-Frank-Allen-Boyd," of "faraway-Nashville Kentucky," measuring the facts in the light of the history of the reforms of the National Convention, in which we are all interested, and which Virginiaans and Pennsylvaniaans will steadily push forward with their loyal brethren from other sections of our great country, until the people come into their own. Have no doubt as to the wisdom of my brethren's position when they take their final stand between following a convention which has sworn that "it has put no money in, nor has any property interests" in the plant, which the people employed Dr. Boyd and members of his board to operate for them. Because we do our own thinking, we are going to discuss these questions fully and freely in Virginia and Pennsylvania, with each other, and we are going to remain together, or I have intermixed my friends, schoolmates, and fellow workers for a quarter of a century. And we are not going to allow Your agents to slide in and out among us, without discussing the issues before the denomination. I know you hate publicity. I know that there is not a strong man in your whole rank who would dare to debate the issue before the people with a stronger man. And Virginia and Pennsylvania do not follow any leadership which is afraid of the truth.
(b) Do you not know, Dr. Boyd, that not a single Virginia Seminary man or member of the State conventions of Virginia or Pennsylvania has opened his mouth in defense of either you or the Jones' Convention since you betrayed our trust, and swore before the courts that the National Convention has no interest in its publishing plant which it employed you and others to operate? Do you not know
REV. W. L. SMITH.
The Rev. W. L. Smith, who for many years was an advocate of Baptist antisman in the counties of Hanover and Amelia, died at his home Chula, Va. Oct 21. He was born in Bowling Green, Va. Feb. 14, 1849, educated at Lincoln University, Pa. graduating in the class 1883, and licensed to preach the Gospel by the Presbytery of East Hanover. He organized and pastored Mt. Zion Church, Ashland, Va. 10 years, and Albright, Oak Grove, Harper Memorial, Russell Grove and Mt. Hormon 24 years, thus rendering his Lord and the Christian Church 24 years of service. "For what is it whorel ye were inferior to other churches except it be that I myself was not burdenome to you; forgive me this wrong." H Cor. 12:13.
The Mt. Hermon Church was filled to overflowing by his many friends and associates who had come to par-ticipate in the last service—the funeral of Rev. William Lawson Smith. Rev. L. L. Downing conducted the services, assisted by eight of the members of the Presbytery of Southern Virginia, and the Rev. Thomas, pastor of the Baptist Church at Chula. Rev. G. P. Watkins announced the hymn, "Nearer My God To Thee." Prayer was offered by Rev. J. G. Harris. The 90th Psalm was read by Rev. J. A. Wright. "Aleep in Jesus" was announced by Rev. T. E. Montouth. An obituary was read by Rev. W. H. Shepperson. The sermon was preached by the Rev. L. L. Downing. D. D., from 2nd Timothy, 4:6. "I am now ready to be offered, and the time of my departure is at hand." Remarks were made by Rev. W. E. Carr, D. D., Rev. W. H. Thomas, of the Baptist Church, and Elder Archer of Mt. Hermon Church.
The services were beautiful and impressive. The chancel of the church was banked with magnificent floral tribute.
Rev. Smith leaves a wife and a host of friends to mourn their loss. The burial was made in Richmond.

FINE MEETING—MANY FINE AD
DRESSER—DIL MOTON SPEAKS
TO A LARGE AUDIENCE
(BY CHAS. STEWART.)
Roanoke, Va., November 11.—One of the most unique agencies at work for racial uplift and development in this country is the Negro Organization Society, which has just closed its fourth annual session in this city last night, with a mammouth mass meeting in the Academy of Music, with two thousand people of both races present, and two important addresses were delivered; one by Dr. Robert R. Moton, principal of Tuskegee Institute, and the other by Dr. J. P. McConnell, president of the State Normal school, Radford, Va.
LARGE ATTENDANCE
The convention opened Wednesday night in the First Baptist Church, of which the Roy Dr. E. E. Ricks in pastor. It seemed that all Roanoke poured out to welcome the distinguished educators, for they were educators, and practical at that. The object of the organization is to educate the people along the lines of "Better Homes, Better Farms, Better Schools and Better Health." To this end during the year campaigns, are conducted, and there are two men kept constantly on the field doing this particular work.
THE OPENING EXERCISES
Lawyer A J Oliver acted as master of ceremonies Music and furnishing by the choir of the First Baptist Church The Rev J H Burka, D. D. of the High Street Baptist Church conducted the opener, reading the scripture lesson and making the prayer. Attorney Oliver delivered a masterly address at the opening, and concluded by introducing the Mayor Hon C M Brown, who gave to the distinguished men and women the keys of the city asuring them that it was a pleasure to have them hold the session in Roanoke. His interest in the race and its development was based on his "black manners" who had nursed him in infancy into boyhood, and then threw his school days. He declared that if he had the race he would never follow them but continue to do all in his power to en courage and help them in their efforts to rise.
SECRETARY WOODS ADORET

the rest of the family when he visited

extended welcome. Like the other
sisters he had a black mamma,
but it was real he was told by her
blood and flesh, and he loved her
as his own life.
DELEGATES RECEIVED
Proof Gilman, with open arms, received the delights into the homes and hearts of the colored people making them truly welcome in old Virginia style. Following this, theravel was turned over to President Robert R. Moton, who, after a few remarks, introduced R. E. Clay, of Bristol, to respond. Mr. Clay was at himself and delivered an elegant address, as did the Rev. A. A. Graham, of Phoebe, who also responded. The welcome addresses having been delivered, then came introduction of Dr. W. D. Weatherford, International Secretary of the Y. M. C. A., working among the Southern white colleges. The address was fair and conservative in every particular, full of encouragement to the race. He expressed himself as being in favor of human rights. He was strong in the doctrine of the Fatherhood of God and the brotherhood of man.
REPORTS RECEIVED.
Thursday morning the convention at 10 o'clock with impressive song and prayer services, by Roy W. J. Howard, of Washington, D. C. and L. O. Lewis, of Lynchburg. Reports from delegates. This was a kind of a class meeting. It was opened by the Rev. W. J. Howard representing the North Virginia Sunday School Convention. He declared that he was with the Society in its object teeth and the nails—in fact, he was with anything which meant racial development.
EDITOR YOUNG'S COMMENT.
Editor P. B. Young, representing
The State, Negro Business League was the next speaker. He said that the members of the race in Virginia were doing more constructive work and less fault-finding. Not sitting around complaining, but going out doing things. The reports made at the last session of the League showed wonderful progress, and there would be greater things reported at the next session. Among the other speakers were Rev. W. W. Ward, representing the Pulaski district conference of the Methodist Episcopal Church; Rev. M. E. Davis, representing the annual conference of the A. M. E. Church; Thos. J. Edwards, superintendent of the Reformatory, Hanover; Nelson William, of the State Sunday School Convention; S. B. Ragadale, of Halffay County; W. T. Johnson, First Baptist Church, Richmond, and the Shiloh Baptist Association; Rev. C. H. Johnson, Baptist Church, Bristol; Prof. J. H. McGrew, State secretary of the Y. M. C. A., and many others spoke, before turning to the program.
INTERESTING PROGRAM
The first was a symposium, "Beauty in Home Building" (a) "How to beautify the Interior" Miss Eugenia Taylor, of Roanoke; (b) "Better Times Ahead—Cooperative Home Development," by Miss Lizzie A. Jenkins, of Hampton; (c) "Place of Amusement in the Life of the Young People," by Prof. C. H. Williams, of Hampton Institute.
Prof. Williams stirred up the ministers as nothing else stirred them, for in a way he indoors danced, and it was that which brought up the ministers. He believed that dancing and all other amusements for the young people should be under the supervision of the church. It was just like stirring up a hornet's nest. This was, discussed fully one hour and it was not until Dr. Moton allounced that the time had arrived for closing that it was stopped, and even after that several ministers got in a word.
DE STEWART SPEAKS T001
Carter Stewart, A M D D of Churchill, III, was introduced and made a short address. He was given an occasion by the Society.
The meeting Thursday night was held in St Paul Methodist Episcopal Church. Rev S M Beaufort conducted the meeting and the chair of St Paul Church furnished the speaker. The first speaker was a information beverage by Prof T C Drawn showing the proper procedure in the rural area, the result of the cleaning campaign, presenting some beautiful homes owned by members of the race in the various counties. He welcomed the sorry home life.
Mr Agnes D Baldockly executive secretary of the Tibberdian Association of Virginia, delivered the first address on Health but the second address was delivered by Dr James Baldockly of Virginia. Guest speaker of Raleigh County presented the third address. He delivered the first practical and call to good information on the Norfolk Dr R E

Dear Sir, Seeing in "The Planet" of Saturday, October 21, a letter from Balaia, Brazil from Mr. I. S. Moore, I bear to state that I am an African by birth, arriving in this country three years ago from Japan and have been traveling through the Southland for the last two years and as Mr. Moore said, the condition of my people is pliful. I see by Mr. Moore's letter that he has one thousand, two hundred hectos of land, which he hopes to have settled by the colored people of this country, and as I was thinking of going to Brazil, knowing that it is the best country for my people on this continent. I see that Mr. Moore is in need of funds of three thousand dollars to put the movement through. I should like my services, being a preacher and lecturer and have traveled extensively through South America, knowing that South America is the best country, with the exception of Africa for my people of this country. I should be willing to go on a lecturing tour to help to raise the three thousand for Mr. Moore's movement for my people. So, if you believe, dear sir, that I can be of any service to this movement, please notify me at once.
Hoping to hear from you at your earliest convenience, I remain.
Yours respectfully,

DR. BRYAN AT FIFTH STREET.
Dr. R. C. Bryan, one of the foremost white surgeons, delivered a very interesting lecture at the Fifth St. Baptist Church, on Friday night, November 10th, on his experiences while in France, in charge of one of the American, Hospitals established there to care for the wounded soldiers. Many white ladies and gentlemen accompanied, Dr. Bryan to the church and were intermitted listeners. They contributed largely to the splendid silver offering given to against in raising the mortgage from the Church.
Dr Bryan's lecture was exceptionally graphic and interesting. He described in minute detail his observations of a four-month's stay, just behind the tronches in France. The story of his thrilling ride in a French war aeroplane was listened to with rapt attention. He ended with a beautiful peroration, amidst applause. Mr. Henry W. Anderson and Mr. Allen Potts, prominent white citizens of Richmond, were noted in the audience and they came forward and gave thrilling talks of their experiences in the tronches on the British and French fronts. Their addresses were highly appreciated.

My secretary has requested me to inquire what disposition your office will please relative to the lunchtime of the day on Tuesday at Bay City, Texas. We promise you are Governor of the people not understanding what you have not given the matter, which occurred during your administration any consideration. However we felt that this was the most important matters which the president portion of your time will allow on you to understand your position.
We note however that a colored boy escaped from a peonage farm in North Texas, was lynched in your town. We failed to hear a single word from you relative to this outrage. We hope you have a deep sense of justice. The outfit of office which you took as chief Executive of this State, it carried with it the protection of the Negro citizen in much as it did the white Americans in Mexico, which you were so much concerned over. The kind of type of citizenship builds the higher type of civilization. This within itself would guarantee a fair trial for the most humbleest of its citizens.
We would be very glad to get a report from you in regards to these matters as referred to.
A recommendation from you the next legislature to look into these matters and enact some remedy for this growing evil, we are sure would have a far reaching effect all over the United States.
Inasmuch as this State allows in innocent Negroes to be lynched without a protest, it will not stop there—the white man too, must share the same grief, by the same outlaw that have slain the Negro. You're very respectfully. E. C. Branch

TWO COLored CHILDREN ARE
PLENED TO DEATH
Two little colored girls, Edith and Helen, Mellumn and three and seven years respectively, were burnt to death in a fire which destroyed their home, the Real about nine miles from the church. Thursday after noon The children evidently did not detect the fire until late to escape, and their charged bodies were found covered in the alley. The house was owned by their grandmother, Elizabeth "Mellumn. The children lived with her. She is an aged colored woman, and when she discovered the fire it had grown to far that she was unable to handle the situation. The fire started from the back of the house, as well as could be ascertained, and is thought to have caught accidentally.
Marietrate; Ed Oliver visited the place a short time after the fire and made investigations. He learned that the two children had been in an upstairs room when the fire started and had been unable to find their way powerless to help them or to extinguish the fire, and as help could not be summoned in time to save the house, the children were trapped and burned to death. Policeman W. H. Lawrence was rushed to the scene, but could do nothing, and after thorough investigation decided that the fire had an accidental origin. The bones of the children were buried near the home Nov. 11, 1916.

TALKS ON THRIFT
An time goes by the virtue of self-denial is more and more apparent, and the art of doing without more needed. The social faculties of today, the craze for dress, amusements, recreation, automobiling—all the glitter and attractions of a materialistic age call loudly for self control, self-denial and careful living. And those who try to keep pace with the crowd set a pace that kills.
No man ever succeeds who does not learn to do without The very basis of religion of good conduct, or good character lies in the virtue of self-control. It is the highest evidence of self-mastery and the foundation of the moral and business ethics.
Dating without may be difficult at times, but if you come somewhere All you can do is care for and be kind. Upon it Saving money and dating without is a painful process, but the result is hard to prevent. Surprise you never ever and self-delight never popular. But you won't have the big thrills of life if you let upon having those and of the things all the time. The boy who wants to be who must do with out his cool and cool and the like, but he knows his wheel will give him last for pleasure that ever balances the little. Sooner for a purpose in life, difficulty, and self-delight for longer. Sooner becomes a law. It is easier to follow the law. But follow it would bring you to no desirable end.

"The children are provided in suburban that children between the age of four and six shall attend for four less than four months a year. Exception to this requirement apply to those children who have completed the fourth grade of the grammar elementary school, those whose parents or guardians are in destination, those whose services are needed in farm or mercenaries, and those who are mentally or physically incapable. Victors of the law are subject to adjudication."
The desirable results of want of a compulsory school attendance law in Georgia are strikingly evident in the large number of pupils who quit school between the second and seventh grades in the white schools. There were 58,246 pupils who entered the second grade for the year ending December 31, 1915; only 26,578 entered the seventh grade for that year, which shows that 31,650 pupils quit school between these two grades; in other words, Georgia is not giving over half her white pupils a seventh-grade education.
The public school course of Georgia covers 11 years, with the exception of a few of its progressive cities which have recently added the twelfth grade. According to the Annual School Report for the white schools of Georgia for the year ending December 31, 1915 there were 2,045 pupils who entered
THE RICHMOND PLANET, RICHMOND, VIRGINIA
the eleventh grade; this shows that only one pupil in every twenty-eight of those who entered the second grade entered the eleventh grade.
In Illinois, with a state-wide compulsory attendance law, for the school year ending June 30, 1915, there were 127,629 enrolled in the second grade and 103,347 pupils enrolled in the seventh grade; which shows that Illinois is giving over 50 per cent of her children a seventh grade education. For this same year in Illinois there were 15,812 pupils enrolled in the eleventh grade, which shows that one in every seven pupils enrolled in the second enters the eleventh grade It is expected, however, that Georgia will make signal progress in her public school attendance under her new compulsory attendance law, and that with in the next decade public sentiment to that state will demand a still better law. The Atlanta Journal. in the editorial already quoted, pays tribute to the groups that have worked for the new year. In order to make it possible for Georgia to make first stop better, it attained a new law.
It is clearly evident that there is plenty of room for improvement in the public school attendance of both Illinois and Georgia. An improved public sentiment in behalf of a better school attendance will be raised for its prosecution than all the laws that ever be written upon the statute books. The public prosecution is the answer through which we are public service until it will be honoured tolerate the present poor attendance at our public schools through the methods. The comparison above is for the same cases in both States. The public school attendance will be worse year.

Broad streets where an evening paper was dislaying election returns. A very large crowd had gathered and our "braided" friend mixed with the crowd. He never said a word. He could not solve the mystery of this crowd being gathered on the corner, gazing upward with delight one moment and frenzy in another. He had not heard of the Presidential election, possibly he did not think it necessary, in fact, he didn't care anything about it. His bummed intellect could only think of one possible cause for this densely packed corner. Finally he stepped closed and asked one of the "peering ones" "SAY, WHERE'S THE FIRE!"

CHAPTER XXI.
COLLIE, coming from the bunk
mouse, glanced up and saw Black
Boyar standing alone where he
own pony had stood. This vignon
not an invitation, this was during blu
to follow.
He rode into the canyon, half con-
sess of Yuma's tracks ahead of him.
He rode past the tracks as they
saw well toward a grassy level near
the stream.
Let me look beside the sweating Yuma
pat, the pony's neck. Collie
moved to the confluence formally.
Louse was burstheaded. The clear
morning sunlight enhanced her rich
coloring. Against the misty gray of
the canyon wall her head, in profile
as she stood beside the horse, was as
definitely beautiful as that vision that
Imagination knows full well, but may
seldom realise.
"Colle, don't say anything but that. You look awfully glum. Surely not because I took Yuma."
"No. Only I was afraid for you."
"So you followed at breakneck speed to rescue the timorops, the despairing, and so forth."
"I can't joke like that this morning."
"Why? I'm here safe enough. And breakfast?"
"Yes. I wanted to see you about something, loosen."
"All right, was you on purpose so unnatural tall and sexy and judicial atting there on lower. You look almost funereal. Please get down. Roll a cigarette and not natural. I'm not going to scow your skirt."
"I wish you would."
"Why? What have you been doing that makes you look so unhoused of yourself? Tell me."
"You don't get materially Is there something about me that is different Is that it?"
"No. I wish you was different some times"
"You do!"
"No. he said softly. I didn't wish you were different I want to remember her you like you me"
"To remember you!"
"Yes. he whispered 'you remember you'"
He seemed to see together astonished ment, quietly giving griefs to even a blithe of interest in his eyes. But her expression changed so flatly. "I think you have something to remember her by something you asked me for once, long ago. I said it to you. You have never spoken of it we knowledge it. I can't quite give that."
"Your glove I know. I got it here."
And he touched his breast. I thought you would understand."
"I do. But, Colle, a girl always likes to be told that she is understood, even when she knows it."
"I was going to write about getting your glove at the hospital. I guess I was too tired."
"At the hospital?"
"Tea. Red sent it to me. Brand gave it to him to give to me that time."
"Ohl! And Louise fell like retracting a little; but, sweetly perverse, she obeyed sheer instinct. 'Colle, do you realize that I have already asked you to dismount? Shall I have to ask you again? Do you realize that I am standing while you are sitting your horse?"
"I am begging your parden, Louise."
The girl nodded brightly, smiling as she noticed the little scar on his chin, a wound that she had made him blush for when she had adornished him for fighting with Dick Tempow.
She watched the rise and fall of the muscles of his arm beneath his damaged shirt as he lighted his cigarette. How broad chested and strong and whole-

some he seemed in the morning sunlight! There was an unattended grace about his movements, his gestures, which, together with his absolute unconsciousness of self, pleased and attracted her.
"Yuma is a little wild, but she is a fine saddle pony. I'm really jealous for Boyna's prestige."
"I was afraid for you to ride her," said Colle.
"She behaves beautifully."
"Would you take her as a kind of present from me?" he asked.
"Give Yuma to me!" I thought you loved her?
"I do. That's why I want you to have her."
"He would give you away," said Louie, atroxing Yuma's neck. "Give you away just as you're learning to trust him and perhaps even like him a little—and he says he loves you." Let's run away from him. Hummingbird!
"I think I could stand it if you would just be mean only," said Collie "Stand what, Collie!"
He had been watching her shapely hand and simple, rounded wrist as she stroked the peony's neck. Safetyily she turned from the horse and faced him "What, Collie?" "There was laughter in her eyes, a laughter that challenged more than her secret fear. Her lips were smiling. Her coth was tilted provocingly.
His eyes grew wide with misspoken love, unattended by going. He delighted in the delicacy curve of her cheek and of her arm resting on the saddle. Her pulse had an unifiable impression of royal courage, as though it were battling for more than her lips could utter. In her absence he had added

her. Now he forced all that he had meant to tell her in the sensuous delight of her more presence. But even that was not enough. He dropped the pony's reins and stroke toward her. Louise paled even as he drew near, but he saw nothing but her eyes and her lips, lips that moved wistfully, prowling tenderness and love. For an instant Louise held her heart aloof.
"Let me just worship you - a little while - a little while," he whispered.
"Only a little while" she breathed, and the soft rose glowed in her cheeks.
"Just forever," he said.
And Louise Laudartine, more beautiful than the morning, Louise, his most gracious senator, his Madonna of the Rose, lifted her arms to him. Her lifesquivered like a child's tremulous with longing to tell him instantly, as his lips found hers, all that her heart was giving and all the wealth of love it yet should give.
Gently his hands clasped her giden head. His whole being thrilled as he touched her hair, her cheeks, her lips. "Oh, Collie, Collie, love me always!" she whispered. And she drew him down to her breast and cuffed his cheek, sighing and murmuring little endearments and sweet, broken words of love.
Moonstone canyon, coiling beautiful, echoed the heaf beats of the ponies as they walked homeward.
Louise turned in the saddle. "Collie," she said with an indescribable gesture of appeal, "you will always take care of me, won't you?"
"My Rose Girl, why do you say that?"
"I was thinking of my father."
Louise saw his lips stiffen and his chin lift. "Louise, I had no right just now I have it any right—I'm poor. The claim wasn't ours."
"I didn't mean that," she said, smiling wistfully. "But you will always care for me, won't you? I don't care one bit about the claim. It has made trouble and sorrow enough. I can't remember my father. I can hardly think of him as my father. But it is hard, bile to thick of his dring for want be-

cause he cared so much for gold."
"But how did you know?"
"I know," she answered gravely.
"And I know that you are a very, very foolish boy not to trust your friends more than you do. Did you suppose you would be happier or better in leaving Moon to mine again? Did you suppose I would be happier? Colle, you have so much to learn."
"I guess that's so," he sighed. Then his eyes told him with his old time mishear.
"But you begin now to touch the earth like back there in the canyon."
And being of the devilish habit of mind, he told me to be wise and charmed himself to and delicious in strife.
"But how did you know," he asked again, "told me this and your father and me."
"A secret that I share with Overland." She shouted.
"So he told you. When? Not last night. He was a sleep when I came away this morning."
"So he is here, then?"
"Louise, you're soaking. Didn't Red talk to you?"
"No."
"And you know all about it already?" He looked at her curiously for a moment. "Did you know that I said I was going to leave the Moonstone?" "Why?"
"For the same reason that I can't now you. Red and Eily Winthrop and I don't own a cent's worth of the claim now. I don't even own what's in the bank. And I got Yunnan."
"You gave Yunnan to me, Collee."
"I sure did. I haven't even her. But I've got you. Oh, Louise, I can't be here! I could just shout. Can't I have another one, Rose Gill?"
"Must I teach you not to ask?" said Louise.
Colleen took her other meaning as she made a little mouth at him. "Not after this," he said and gave not proof that he meant it.
"More than a wish to be adorned of gold?" she asked at him.
"Produce that you won't speak to
any one about it, either the desert
or my father, but I will you may."
"Of course I will you may."
"Not about you until I tell
you to."
"Never if it will be ever happier."

"Then Collie shook his walle, said Louis promptly, "Collie, 'Will you please let Mr. Simmons take Boyar?' I want to talk with the president of my nine little white." "Don't call Collie, said Overland swinging into the saddle. 'I always was the little little gopher with the ladies. You watch us ride up this trail if you want to see a pair that can ride." Collie shook his fist at the grinning Overland, who had turned as he rode away. "You want to learn to act quick when a lady asks you," called Overland. "You didn't get off this honeys any too spry." Then Collie stooped and picked up a little red flower that had dropped from the bolstered one's offering.
The Marshalls and Billy Winthrop came in their car. The ride through the canyon had been pleasant. They were talking about Overland. They had been discussing the rearrangement of a great many things since the news of Louis's birth and become known.

The salads have been abolished in Virginia, but the whiskey that some of them carried remains behind. We tell this by observing that the color of the liquid is still ever present with one of the former patrons of the bar.
A candidate who can carry New York, New Jersey Illinois and Indiana, even if he loses the rock ribbed Republican State of Ohio, is entitled to another chance. It looks like the Democratic Party will be required to rocken with CHARLES EVANS HYUNS in 1920.
We have our own ideas upon all vital questions concerning the welfare of the nation. The American people seem to have their ideas, and PRESIDENT WOODROW WILSON also seems to know just how to pander to them, be those ideas right or wrong.
Children should obey their parents, but too many parents nowadays obey their children. The result is that the children land in houses of dissipation the fall, and in old age, in the alms house.

what is the Hon. WILLIAM J. BAYAN

GOVERNOR HIRAM JOHNSON, Republican-Progressive in California, or Progressive-Republican, carried that State by two hundred thousand plurality, and President Wilson is said to have carried it by something over three thousand plurality. There may have been a square deal in California for Mr. Hiram—but, gentlemen, the thing looks crooked.

The people are the ones of the People. Here is a story of the heartfelt pep-up of the people of the community. This is a common has done well, and the people of the community are making a difference in the people that they will continue to be living in. This is that cooperation of the better people is a most important feature. The members have a great way to help the money making companies that they are helping to build.
In the last chapter we learned the way to find the way to the top of the staircase and follow the staircase. A person who is interested in history will find the staircase to be interesting to him for the reason of its history. It has an ed for a word and it has been unpublished. It is a staircase that appears in the public school and the college and the university among the colored folks will take an upward climb. Paradox the staircase of the language used, but God knows, is the truth.

BIG TEAMS PLAY TRUE TO FORM
A produced in these contests Howard is dedicated to hard work and a strong havin' spirit on his behalf and a strong havin' spirit on his behalf. Howard was for our class that he would be could be had on the attitudes of the players. Regular form and a few forward passes were told all that Howard excelled. Howard has quite a task before her in meeting Union (W Va.) Institute V N L, and one or two others between now and Thanksgiving. With such a large email however, she ought to pull through and be in good shape for Hampton November 30. Lincoln was even weaker than anyone thought, but quite likely will be in better shape for Hampton November 17. Hampton will win, of course, but hardly by a 26 to 9 score. From Lincoln's performance it would seem that the team has a lack of material and but little scrimmage work.
Manassas Industrial School, contrary to "Dippe" defeated Morgan College in Baltimore without half trying Morgan outwolped M I S, and the backs were fact, but the entire team was weak on fundamentals. Unless the team as a whole takes a brace, it looks like a disastrous year. Baltimore High School does not present a team this year. Lack of material is given as the reason. There appears a general athletic apathy in Baltimore. Agricultural and Technical College of Greenville, N.C. has begun the onward march to the championship of North Carolina by defeating Shaw by the score of 20 to 6. Beasley was
The real star of the game. From his position at fullback he smashed the Shaw line right and left for from five to twenty five yards. A & T. will likely win every game. The record for 19th follows defeated Shaw 7 to 0; High Point, 32 to 0; Bennett College, 18 to 0; St Augustine, 19 to 0, and played two the game with Livingstone College 0 to 0, and 12 to 12.
The Hampton Union game went about as expected. Union brought forth a strong well-balanced team and in great shape for so early in the season. The winners made considerable use of the forward pass against which Union did not have sufficient defense. Union had two valuable players put out of the game through injuries.
In the loss of Hulcs, who received injuries in the Hampton game, Union very likely lost her golden opportunity to win from Howard. Hulcs, quarterback par excellence, and the star of the backs, could not be replaced in so short a time.
That Howard defeated Union 16 to 7 was due to the fact that Hulcs was seriously injured in the Hampton game, cannot be denied. Union really has done well and will win the remaining games, no doubt, with ease. That she scored touchdowns on both Hampton and Howard is in itself indication of power.
Howard has done well so far. It took a good team to defeat Union, even without the services of her star.
The real contest for Howard comes between now and the final game. True, she will not meet a team of her own caliber; nor in all probability one so strong as Union, yet it is quite a task to make such a trip.
M. I. S. meets Armstrong Tech November 24, in Washington, D. C. in what should be a hard game despite the fact that M. I. S. defeated Howards Preps 20 to 0, and Prep had won from Tech by 2 to 0 score. M. I. S. will not win from Armstrong by no large a score as from Preps, if at all. The M. I. S. line is improving and should play a better game from now on. The backs are very capable, individually, but do not work together as a unit. Storer College meets Morgan College November 18, in what will likely prove to be nothing more than a good workout for Storer, unless Morgan has improved wonderfully in the past two weeks.
Virginia Normal will play Howard University at Petersburg November 28. No one can tell just what V. M. I. will do. They are well coached and will certainly fight to make a good shower. No doubt, if they hold

Fear the President's Wife Has "Excessive Social Ambitions."
Fearing the president's wife has "excessive social ambitions" and will reside in the inaugural ball next Marion, the Conference of Union Men for the Mission of St Louis is likely to request to ask President Wilson not to authorize the ball.
The resolution by Rev Marvin T. Maw and Rev Elmer Clark at the convention in Centenary church asked the president "not to reverse himself in a matter which Christian people approve."
Mrs. Wilson's Nephew a Suicide.
Carrol Galt, a nephew of the present Mr. Woodrow Wilson's first husband, committed suicide by poison in Washington. Galt, who was thirty-five years old, walked into a downtown saloon and said to the bartender: "It have taken poison. Call the wagon." A police ambulance took him to a hospital where he died twenty-five minutes later. No cause for the deed is known.

Youth, Subject of Jibes, Shoots Him
self Before Brother.
While his brother and two companions were rushing frantically toward him, Elmer Miller, nineteen years old, of Lorberry Junction, near Tremont, Pa., raised a revolver to his head and blew his brains out.
The act was committed because Miller was criticized for buying a pain of shoes for his sweetheart.
Learning that Elmer was contemplating suicide, his brother and companions ran towards the hill where he stood, the brother shouting, "My God, Elmer, don't do that!" Elmer waited with a smile on his face until the trio were within thirty yards of him and then shot.

Dr. Lewis B. Moore Conting to the Metropolis Nated Teacher at Howard University Will Deliver Address at St Marks Lyceum Colored Campaign Committee Honors Charles W. Anderson; Presented With Handsome Leather Case by Staff That Worked With Him During Campaign One Year Has Passed Since the Death of Booker T. Washington (Allen's National News Bureau 447 Loreal Avenue)
New York City, November 13.—The Metropolis is watching with keen interest the coming of Doctor Lawrence B. Moore, one of the most noted educators of the race, and who for years has stood as the dean of the Teacher's College at Howard University, of which he is the founder, who is scheduled to deliver an address in this city on Sunday afternoon, November 26, at St. Mark's Lyceum. Unusual preparation is being made for the coming of the distinguished educator, and it is believed that when he arrives here he will be greeted by one of the largest and most distinguished audiences that has ever been seen in this city.
Dr. Moore will deliver an address on "The New Science of Matrimony," and your correspondent will say that a treat is in store for those who shall be so fortunate as to hear Educator Moore. He will bring to this locum a message that will do much to inspire its members, and the large audience that will doubtless greet. Dean Moore. He is well-known in this city, where he has been on many occasions, making study of the various educational systems here, and where he has delivered addresses on many important occasions. He has long been regarded the leading educator of the race, and has perhaps done more for the development of the higher education of the youth of the race than any other living man of the race engaged in the field of education. Some time ago he established as a separate graduate school at Howard University, Teacher's College, a department of the university that is devoted to the training of young men and women as teachers, and which has done to elevate the profession of teacher to the dignified plane that it deserves.
Before the establishment of this distinct school by Dr. Moore, young colored men and women were not fully prepared for their work as teachers, and as a result, the best and brightest young people of the race were not attracted to the profession. Teachers' College is one of the most unique features of the educational work of Howard University, and has brought the university great prestige. Dr. Moore has done much to inspire the young men and women to lofty ideals, and he will doubtless be greeted when he comes to this city by large numbers of former students at Howard.
He is a man of fine culture, and erudition, and has been aplendidly trained for his life's work. He is a graduate of Pink University, and the later University of Pennsylvania, where he won the degree of Doctor of Philosophy.
After his work at this institution he made a trip to Europe where he made a special study of the German and other educational systems abroad. Much of his experience gained abroad he has put into execution here. He is well-known throughout the country as a lecturer, as well as an educational expert, where he is known as a conductor at many of the summer institutes for teachers throughout the South. The coming of this great educator to the city will serve as an impetus to the race here, and it will doubtless be one of the events of the literary life of the city.
CAMPAIGN STAFF HONORS
CHARLES W. ANDERSON
The colored campaign staff, associated with Charles W. Anderson at the Republican National headquarters, during the last campaign, presented Charles W. Anderson, who was the director of the Colored Committee, with a handsome leather case valued at ten dollars. last Thursday, at the headquarters. The presentation was made at the suggestion of T. Thomas Fortune, who was the secretary of literature during the campaign, and who felt that this token ought to be shown him. The following persons of the committee contributed to the expense of the case: Rajah R. Lenton, Perry A. Howard, James A. Cobb, Nizie Blumendorf, Dr. Bowen, Mrs. Rovettne, Mrs. Woodson, and Harry Mildinson. Mr. Anderson made a brief address.
ing deeply touched with the affection in which he was held by the members of his campaign staff. There were over ten employees under the direction of Mr. Anderson during the past campaign, and all of them expressed to your correspondent the highest personal regard for him as a leader of men and a capable executive of the finest type. Under his direction, splendid work was done among the colored voters throughout the country

ONE YEAR SINCE DEATH OF
BOOKER T. WASHINGTON
Last Tuesday marked one year since the death of the great and illustrious educator, Rooker T. Washington, and this time last year the leading and most influential newspapers of the country, both the dailies and weeklies, were giving up their editorial columns in praise of the splendid career of this noted leader, and how by dent of his own perseverance he rose to a foremost place in the national life of his country. Memorial services were also being held, where the leading men of affairs of both races, including Theodore Roosevelt, the late Seth Low, Governor C. S. Whitman, Charles W. Anderson, and others of like position joined in paying a tribute to the worth and eminence of this distinguished leader, lamented his death as one of the sorst afflictions that could come to a race or nation.
Immediately after the death of Booker T. Washington, steps were begun to perpetuate his memory, and to keep alive the principles for which he fought and died for. This took shape in the form of a movement to endow the institution which he founded, and which will be indelibly linked to his name. In order to do this, four million dollars was to be raised as the amount necessary, and the reports come from other section of the country that this amount is almost in hand. During the past year, the great educator has been sadly missed, and the influence of personality still hovers over the nation. The first impression of his greatness and influence was seen at the recent session of the National Negro Business League, which met in Kansas City. For years the genius of this eminent man guided the deliberations of this strong body of men and women, as one of the great inspirations of the session. This has been seen in other great movements of which he headed or was part.
Tuskegee Institute, The Farmers' Conference, The Jeanne's Fund, and kindred movements are some of the many potent factors in the upift of the race and nation that sadly missed the great leader the nation is still mourning. That the influence of the late educator has gripped the country since his death, may be seen in the appearance of two books within the past year hearing upon the life and career of Dr. Washington. The two books are "The Life and Times of Booker T. Washington." by Dr. B. F. Riley, and "The Work of Booker T. Washington." written jointly by Emmet Scott, for eighteen years his private secretary, and Lyman Beecher Stowe, the grandson of Harriet Boecher Stowe.
The latter book is of special significance because of the light it throws on the character of Booker T. Washington by one who has had peculiar advantages of close contact with him. As a newspaper writer, one year after the death of the educator, I want to urge the young men and women of the race to take a keener interest in the life and works of this noted leader and study the salient points in his character, which made it possible for him to become one of the great men of his times. Read his life, and some of the books he has written, and hold him up as an ideal that holds out to the Afro-American youth the highest possibility.
THE NATIONAL EQUAL RIGHTS
The local branch of The National Equal Rights League held an inculcatic meeting last Thursday evening at Salem M. E. Church, under the anspices of the Lyceum. The meeting was well attended, and one of the things done was the consideration of plans to form a strong organization here.
Rev. James R. Churchman made his first address as national organiser. He made a plan for a clear entity, and advertised the building up of a strong movement like the League. That will show to the world the strength of the race. Mennon. G. W. Allen and James R. Allen, who were dignitaries to the last congress in Washington, gave impromptu reports of the work of the congregation.

ROANOKE NOTES
ROANOKE, VA., 14. — Last Sunday morning being quarterly meeting day the P. E., Rev. Georgo R. Jones, D. D., preached the sermon of his administration at eleven o'clock from that most wonderful Scripture. "For we know that if our earthly house of this tabernacle be dissolved, we have a building of God, a house not made with hands but eternal in the Heavens." He called to the minds of his hearers the various architects of the world's construction, but when he compared them with the building above alluded to. They all passed away into insignificance, for they are not enduring. But the Heavenly habitation is as eternal as its Maker and Builder. The discourse of the P. E. was the most instructive it has been my pleasure to listen to at any time previous during his presiding eldership on the Roanokö District of the A. M. E. Church. He is telling men the story of Christ.
Rov. G. C. Taylor, D. D. spoke very encouragingly to his people as regards the condition of our people "Hehold, I make all things new," He said that this was a new age in Virginia, made so by the destroying of the sale of liquor in the state, which has been in its existence since the days of the early settlers who landed at Jamestown, Va. The young people would do well to adapt themselves to the new surroundings and make new and strong efforts to prepare for a nobler and better life under more favorable conditions as it has been decided by a majority vote that prohibition is best. Let all the people bow to the will of the great majority and help to work for the best ends attainable under those changed conditions. Let us think of the past and then we will sing and trustfully await what the future may bring forth. Time will tell.
At three o'clock, Rev. E. E. Bicks of the First Baptist Church, his excellent choir and congregation came over to worship with Dr. Taylor and his people at Mt. Zion A. M. E. Church. The Rev. Dr. Howard, of Washington, D. C. was also present. He has a membership of three thousand and has served those people for thirty years. He has been sent by his good people to the Holy Land, and throughout the Eastern countries beyond the sea, even to Vordun where the war is raging now. Dr. Howard is a wonderful man and minister of the gospel of Christ. He loves an intelligent ministry.
The sermon by Rev. Ricke was one of helpful instructions. The choir of the First Baptist Churhe rendered some sweet collections, after the sermon. A collection of $7.15 was laid on the table as an evening offering. Dr. Howard spoke very kindly of the long standing and brotherly relations he had with Dr. Ricke and Rev. G. C. Taylor in past years and the joy it afforded him to find them both about the noblest work ever assigned to men doing the Master's bidding, calling men for the Master's Kingdom. Benediction was offered by Dr. Howard.
Mrs. Charlotte Scott, of 1021 Ror-er avenue, W., died Friday noon, November 10th. Sister Scott had been in falling health for twelve months or more. She was a devout Christian and always had something to say about the Lord and His goodness. She died happy. She had many friends among the white people as well as among the people of her own race and in token of their regards they furnished a very beautiful floral design. The flowers were numerous and very beautiful. She was a member of the I. O. of St. Luke. The remains were taken to Montvale, Va., where the funeral services took place, conducted by Rev. W. D. Woods of Seventh ave.
The remains were solemnly laid to rest amidst the fraternal ties that bind us to one glorious Trinity. The greatest of all, we feel that Mother Scott has gone from earth to Heaven. She leaves one devoted and loving daughter to mourn her loss; but Heaven's oternal gain and a host of kinemon and friends who will sooner or later be called to follow over death's narrow sea, which slightly divides that heavenly land from ours. Let us begin preparing anow, know-

Mr. Albert Jackson, who suffered from a slight stroke of Paralysis, some weeks ago, is somewhat improved on Peach road, North Roamoke.
Mrs. Bessie Stanfold, 66 McDowell avenue was taken very sick last Wednesday. She is much better at this writing, under the care of Dr. J. B. Clayton.
Mrs. Alice Lawson, 314 Tenth avenue, N. W., Mrs. Kizzia Alexander and Mrs. Emma Pannell of Home stead, Pa. wish to thank the many friends who so kindly assisted them during the illness and death of their sister, Mrs. Rosa Dean, who died in the home of Mr. and Mrs. Goina Lawson, 314 Tenth avenue, N. W., November 5th.
The Negro Organization Society which met in Roanoke, November 8-10, was, indeed a grand success and received a hourly welcome from the Hon. Mayor Charles M. Broune of the city, with many of the best white citizens of the town. They proved their appreciation by the way they assisted in helping to foster their cause in the state of Virginia. They furnished their chauffeurs and cars on Friday to show the visiting delegation around the city. Every one who attended the meeting seems to have gathered new inspiration to aspire to better attailments in the future. May the organization continue to do the things necessary to better conditions as regard our people who so much need help. May our people realize that the Negro's progress is slow, under existing conditions, yet we may make sure of the ground we have won along the lines of religion, industry, education, finance, morals according to the measure of our opportunities and chances in this land of freedom.
Miss Estelle Brown, of Wytheville, Va. has been visiting her sister, Mrs. Lloyd Hailston, 502, corner of Fifth avenue and Park street since Sunday November 3rd. She is enroute for Baltimore, Md., after a two-week pleasant stay with her sister, Mrs. Hailston and family.
Mrs. Nicy Gravely has returned from a very pleasant trip to the home of her childhood at Lovington, Rockbridge county, Va., where she reports having had quite a new time and that she is glad to be back in the Magic City of the West once more, where the crystal waters flow from beneath that beautiful mountain south of our city.
Died, Friday last, Mr. Frank Hunter, a well known coachman at the home of Mr. James Wray, of Fifth avenue, N. W. He was an old citizen of Boonoke.
Mr. William Fray, of Philadelphia arrived in Roanoke Thursday. He is a very fine chef and Mrs. Foster of Hotel Roanoke has him at that popular hotel. He looks well. Brother C. H. Howard is still at home, but somewhat improved at this writing. We hope he may soon be out again at his post of duty. The Boston is crowded each night to see the great pictures that they are showing.

alred to hear, and address from the successor to Dr. Booker T. Washington. They were there, and there in large numbers, and Dr. Robert R. Moton just worked his way into the hearts of that large crowd. Prof. J. M. Gandy presided., and in the opening introduced the newly elected president, and announced that Dr. R. R. Moton was made the honorary president.
The address dealt with many phases of the race, emphasizing the motto and object of the organization. An appeal was made to the young men to take proper rest, proper exorcise, declaring that it was utterly impossible for them to stay up all night and work all day. Too many young people were dying, and he urged them to quit dying by using the preventives. Throughout, the address was punctuated with applause.
THE SOCIAL FEATURE.
A thing unknown in the history of Roanoke, the wealthy white people extended the use of their automobiles for a joy ride through the city by the delegates. There were twenty-five machines placed in front of the church and the tour lusted two hours and a half. Forty of the delegates were served dinner at the country home of one of the wealthiest farmers in Virginia, J. D. Oliver. All were fed, and still there was plenty left. Mrs. Harris Barrett, at the head of the home for delinquent girls near Hanover, delivered a special talk to the women Friday afternoon. The selection of the next place of meeting was left with the executive committee.

SOUTH BOSTON (VA.) NOTES.
South Boston, Va.—The Civic Improvement League of South Boston, Va. gave a grand concert on Sunday evening, November 12, in the First Baptist Church, for the benefit of extending the public school term from six to eight months. The patrons had asked for a longer term, so the board has consented to give them a longer term, providing they are willing to share in the extra expense. They are getting busy to give all the assistance they can along that line. The concert was well patronized, and the finance was good. The reporter for the Planet, Mr. Mason, was present, and spoke in the interest of the paper. He emphasized the fact that the people of South Boston wore not supporting, as they should, the Planet, and hope in the future that they would throw their strength to this one paper, to which we owe so much.

HOWARD OUTCLASSES UNION
LINCOLN NEXT.
Union's varsity was outclassed by Howard here last Saturday, the final score notting the Washingtonians 11 points to Union's 7 Union has no legal alibi to offer, for the final result certainly would have been different had she put the fight evidenced against Hampton the previous week. County fumbles, one or two instances of poor judgment on Union's side and superiority in compact line plunging of Howard characterized the contest. Union rang the bell for the first touchdown in five minutes Woods carrying the ball over after a dash around Howard's left end. For the rest of the game Union was almost entirely on the defensive Howard's tactics were altogether different from those used against Lincoln in Washington the previous week, both her touchdowns resulted from hitting the line. Only one successful pass was made during the game.
The strain of the game fell upon 'Union's' line men Howard discovered a weak place in Thompson, but his successor Bird, more than plugged up the hole he was fledish in his attacks upon the enemy's plays Taylor was the sensation of the game; his spectacular tackling bordered on the uncanny. For the visitors, Penderhughes, Stratton and Coloman are the triangular attractions. Stratton's toe was much in evidence, a drop kick is placed to his credit. The Lincoln Union game Thanksgiving Day is the next great athletic feat in Richmond. People from all parts of the state are expected to witness this struggle.
T. R. HAPPY, SAYS HELL LEAVE
HUGGLES ALONE
Oyster Bay, Nov. 7. Col. Roosevelt with his gratification over the result coupled the promise that he would make no recommendations to Mr. Hurhes about appointments or legislative policy. He was told of the undoubted result at 9:45 to night.
I am thankful as an American for the election of Mr. Hurhe's, said the Colonel. "It is a vindication of our national honor. Because of some charge that we have been made, I wish to state now that I will not under any circumstances make any recommendations to Mr. Hurhe with reference to appointment or concerning his legislative policy."
Col. Roosevelt with his son Archie went to the polls shortly before noon. He met there Louis P. Brown, Lighthouse tender at Cold Spring Harbor.
"Here is my idea of a real American," said T. R. "His parents were German. He was outside the harbor of Santiago as a seaman on the Indiana, when I was inside."
His chauffeur, in trying to back against the curb, smashed into the runway of the fire engine house, which served as the voting place.
"Don't break it down!" yelled the Colonel "I don't want to spend to-day in jail."
Oyster Bay township, in which the Colonel cast his vote, gave Hughes a plurality of 53 votes in the total of 438 cast. It has been regarded as a strong Democratic district. The only time it turned over was when Roosevelt ran for President.
The other end of Oyster Bay gave Hughes a plurality of 59 votes.
OBEY 8-HOUR LAW OR FACE STRIKE
THE SWITCHMEN ARBITRATE
Threat Made by Head of Trainmen If the Railroads Fail to Observe the Adamson Measure.
Failure of the railroads of the country to live up to the spirit and intent of the Adamson eight hour law will result in the strike vote of the four big railroad brotherhoods being put into effect. It was announced in New York by William G. Lee, head of the Brotherhood of Railway Trainmen after a three hour conference between brotherhood and railway representatives.
The conference was called to reach if possible, some agreement or conclusion as to working out the provisions of the law, which goes into effect January 1. The strike vote referred to by Mr. Lee is that taken before the conference between the railroad and brotherhood hearts and President Wilson, which was followed by the passage of the Adam on law after the brotherhood had threatened to put the vote into effect at that time. When the conference allurned it was announced by brotherhood representatives that so far nothing had been accomplished. They said they had worked out an interpretation of the eight hour law, but had refused to divulge it, as some of the road had announced their intention to fight it through injunctions. Mr. Lee added that any attempt at subterfuge by the railroads will be met with instant action.
Horace Baker, general manager of the Cincinnati, New Orleans and Texas Pacific railway, said the cost of living applied to both sides, and that the demands had been refused because the roads considered the present ratere fair.
$1 Per Dozen for Eggs.
The Pennsylvania state department of agriculture has received a report that a contract has been closed for eggs in Pennsylvania for delivery in New York at $1 a dozen. The price is the highest ever known in the state, and is twenty-five cents higher than the best previous price on record for a dozen of eggs. The report of the "dollar egg" was made by W. T. theore Wittman, the poultry expert of the department, who sent the name of a man at Jersey Shore, Lycoming county, who had contracted to send a dozen fresh labs Pennsylvania eggs to a New York banker at $1 per dozen from November 1 to April 1 next. Mr. Wittman also reported that other Pennsylvania farmers had contracted for delivery of a dozen eggs in New York at from eleven two to sixty seven cents, and that inquiries were being made in eastern counties for prices on mid winter eggs.

I want to drink the health of my friends. I got so many and such good ones that I danced to infiltrate any particular one. So I say, lookin' at your faces like roses and lilies and—and faces. I say—"Here's to California, the darling of the west." A blessing on those living here. And got help all the rest."
Overlind sat down amid applause. He located his tobacco and papers rolled a cigarette with one hand and grasped across the hills. Glancing up he saw Lotte looking at him. He smiled. "I was settling on a crazy bronze brooch. His head up so he couldn't go to bed. I must stick a little old adobe down in Yuma, Arizona. Then. I'd you ever drift away like that just from some little old trick to make you dream?" At a nod from Aunt Eleanor they all rose.
Louise stepped from her end of the table to where Overland stood garing out across the hills. She touched him lightly on the arm. He turned and looked at her unseemingly. His eyes were filled with the dreams of his youth, dreams that had not come true—and yet. He gazed down into her face. His expression changed. His eyes grew mildly with happiness. He realized how many friends he had and how loved and excellent they were. And as if that he had gained his greatest treasure was his love for Louise for Louise La harine, the little Rose Girl of his dreams. That love lay buried deep in his rugged heart. She would never know of it. No one should ever know not even Cottle.
Locose in an ostomy of affection and pity that she could not understand and doubly fume the air around Overland's neck and kissed him full on the lips.
More than he had ever dared to dream had come true.
VIEWS OF WOMEN ON THE FRANCHISE
Northwestern Federation Makes
Plea For the Ballot.
STANDS FOR EQUAL RIGHTS
Organization Headed by Mrs. Joanna
Snowden Porter Conducte Enthusiast
to Campaign With Votes For Women
as Paramount Issue—Platform Calls
For Effective Legislation.
Chicago.-The Northwestern Federation of Colored Women's Clubs, Mrs J. Snowden Porter, president, has done a noteworthy service in its work to secure the ballot for women. In the campaign just closed the federation adopted and used the following as its platform and plan for fair play:
A group of Illinois women, encouraged as they were by the hope of this new emancipation offered to them by their state and realizing the opportunities afforded them in their work of social service through the ballot, are operating with their sister workers having the same or partial rights in their effort to make national suffrage a fact, thereby giving to all women the power to use the ballot for the purpose of securing such legislation, as will promote the advancement of all citizens of all sections of this country.
"beeds, not worries" is a motto much believed in by this group of earnest women, and they set about the work of organizing women of the "old north-west" and the "new north-west" with these by the first annual
adopted as their platform of principles among other planks, a recommendation for a national child labor law and one for universal suffrage, asking the national parties, which intended to make their appeal to the voting contingency for support, to incorporate these principles or their substance in their 1916 platforms.
This organization has been carefully watching the situation since that time and reacting to the pickles of the parties and their interests, especially those of the Democratic and Republican parties. Washington, Wisconsin and Charlies in institutions. The prominent issue, so far as matters are concerned, is universal sufficiency, for it who is through the course only that we can hope for in legislation, we have continually asked for, which will bring to us all the other progressive measures aimed at social and economic life and assure to the home and the community the security and welfare of the people.
Universal suffrage will make the child labor law secure. We have worked for, hoped for it a long time. Therefore we want to stand by our own platform and urge all women to cooperate with the Nake for women' movement. Such laws we have also looked forward to as a protection to our children and future men and women and a safeguard to the health and happiness of the breadwinner, but when we analyze this legislation carefully, given us in the eighth hour, presumably for political purposes, we find little of it to give.
America is again in travail, the result of what we are hoping and praying will give birth to national women suffrage, that new emancipation to ward which women have been working and hoping for more than forty years, help and working to free themselves from the burden of inequality. As at the time of the emancipation of the Negro slave, so it is now in the affairs of the nation. Men's hearts are falling them for fear of what is coming up in the republic, whatever they may set to the contrary. They are seeking care where for a solution of the problems which are continually confronting them. Wars and tumors of wars destroys by land and sea, but compel them to the task of question many parts of social and human interest, instability, the attention of our wheat and most solar statesmen. They invade the social creation of progress and all they are far from a nation. Our country was never in a made unsettled condition, since its discovery than it is at the present time.
Wherever a man have been given the frail life either partial or in full home and community all lither have been better and more laws have been made better and more secure. Yet as a "naughty" man the city comes the whole lamp that illuminates the city comes only help. We can only help. We cannot and will ad valence the city and the city shall have every part of the city shall have the power to illuminate through the ballast. The city shall come time to illuminate and fall like the old ballast.

Wise Provision of the Founders For the Protection of All the People Allike Has Not Born Complied With—Disfranchisement is Form of Political Slavery.
The government of the United States sprang into being because of the absolute necessity of the banding together of the inhabitants of the American colonies in upholding certain incontestable rights. Among these were the right of government by the consent of the governor and the right to voice in representation where taxation is imposed. The basic control of the government of the United States is the constitution of the United States. This document was instituted "in order to form a more perfect union, establish justice, insure domestic tranquility, etc., says the Hon. Joseph C. Manning of Alabama.
The founders of the government in order to secure a more perfect organization than could have otherwise been secured made certain compromises on the slavery question, but finally the constitution of the United States was no perfeted by amendments as to embrace all its citizens within the folds of its guarantee. "Neither slavery nor involuntary servitude except as a punishment for crime which the party shall have been guilty of shall exist within the United States or any place subject to their jurisdiction."

THE USEFULNESS OF RYE.
Has Many Advantages Over Other Grains Grown on the Farm. [Prepared by United States department of agriculture.]
Because of the marked adaptability of rye to salt and temperature conditions it is one of the most useful grains to grow on the farm, even though in most localities the grain crop is less profitable than that of wheat. It will thrive on gently, acid or poor land. It is hardy and therefore can be grown

for this year to the next into the farm
schedule, especially when weather or
other conditions do not show the farm
or belief in its work. Rye is at
tracked by forage insects and diseases
than wheat. It is less fertilizer,
produces a more valuable straw and,
being carried, makes a better forage
crop. Rye is naturally exceeds wheat
in production value of grain per
in some settings. This was true in
the five year period from 1810 to 1814
in South Carolina, Alabama, Texas,
Minnesota, South Dakota and South
Dakota.
The production of rye in the United States is not evenly distributed, 50 per cent of the average being in the eastern half of the country. Of this most is in Minnesota and the states east of the Mississippi and north of the Ohio rivers. In the last few years, however, there has been a tendency toward the spread of rye culture to new regions. The production in the whole United States is only 3 per cent of the world's production. The largest rye crop produced in the United States was in 1815, when the yield was estimated to be over 40,000 bushels.
Rye can be grown on almost any well drained soil in the eastern half of the United States. One of its advantages is its adaptability. It can be used to fill gaps between other crops. Sown early or late in the fall on land either rough or well prepared, it can be depended upon to make a good growth in almost every instance, at the same time conserving fertility and preventing washing during the winter. It may be given the same fall and winter treatment, whatever use is to be made of it, and the farmer need not decide under spring whether to picture it, cut and feed it green, plow it under or harvest it as a straw and grain crop. Like all other grains rye is best grown in rotation.
Although rye will grow on very poor soils, large yields cannot be secured from soils not of good fertility.
The principal plant pest of rye is wild onion or graft. The onion bulblets are about the same size and shape as rye grafts and reaching maturity at the same time, are often thrashed out with the grain. The presence of the onion bulblets reduces materially the price that may be used for rye. Land badly infested with onions should not be used for small grains. If such land must be used the rye should be sown later, the land being plowed and prepared just before planting.
The diseases which may attack rye include stem and leaf rust, flag smut, anthracnose and ergot. The latter is the most serious. It is dangerous to feed rye affected with ergot to live stock. Treatment of rye seed with formaldehyde as for oats and wheat will reduce the likelihood of the occurrence of most grain diseases. Mortified grains may be removed by cutting the seed through a 20 per cent portion of common salt, the diseased sowing, while the normal white snail.

(Continued From First Page)
that Galvin has too much sense to attempt to do so? Have you ever heard a line or a letter from Dr King whom I helped to elect secretary of the organization presided over by Jones? Quite a number of brethren in the country took the position they did at Chicago because of what I had said about Dr. Boyd being willing to do and would do the right thing about the publishing board, and many of them are blaming me now, because they trusted what I said about Brother Boyd, and because I had to turn after I discovered that he was attempting to get on the band-wagon of our reforms in the National Convention to shield himself and associates in his attempt to take the publishing board from the denomination.
(2). Dr. Boyd shows in the Review that he does not understand the meaning of some of our men refusing to stop buying Sunday school literature from the plant which he is attempting to usurp. So he dreams he has a following in this section of the country among Virginia Seminary graduate-
(a) Without any exception, all of our men hold that the National Baptist Publishing Plant belongs to the Baptists of the National Baptist Convention, though Jones' Convention has endorsed Boyd's statement in court that the convention represented by Jones has no property interest in the plant or franchise. And for that reason they are moving carefully lost the plant be wrecked in the attempt to get it properly in the hands of the denomination. They are going slow about ceasing to give their own publishing plant their support, regardless of who is at the head of it or who may be attempting to use the money from the patronage to fight the people and take their plant from them. My own brother, Dr. J. M. Moses, of Philadelphia, has never changed or stopped using literature from the denomination's plant provided over by Dr. Boyd, but he is in no sense a supporter of Dr. Boyd or his usurping administration. There are several legal supporters of the convention provided over by Dr. Morris who have not changed, or as yet stopped taking their literature from their publishing plant.
(b) They have been expecting that the courts would compel Dr. Boyd and his usurping associates to turn the denomination's property over to those whom the denomination has elected to operate it. That suit has been pending ever since we left Chicago, and, as the country knows, it was delayed on account of the gifted Harry Stokes, who had the case in charge, being engaged in the great outstating case of the Mayor of Nashville, and who was killed during the trial last summer, which kept our case out of the court offer we had paid the retailer's fee; making it necessary for us to collect more funds and get other lawyers, which has been done. Now, the case will be pushed and the people are waiting all over the country to see the outcome. If the court decides that Boyd and his board owns and controls the plant, independent of the denomination, then in my opinion, the people without any exception, will build up a publishing plant which they can control "world without eat."
(c) There are others of us who hold that it is necessary to take the patronage from our board presided over by Dr. Royd. In order to keep him from taking our money to fight us. That, after all, may be a very wise way to take it, and it may not. It will certainly have weight with the courts to know that the people who patronize the plant and those who have refused to patronize it, are all anxious to have the denomination in absolute control of their publishing plant. So, Brother Royd, you need to think that some of us are going to support you simply because we have not ceased using literature from our publishing plant, which you have attempted to take from us.
CONCLUSION
(1) The graduates of Virginia Seminary and friends of the school and convictions in Virginia and Pennsylvania, have top much as stake to allow Dr. Boyd to divide them; even if they were disposed to be jealous of each other, and would take to your attempt to array them against each other. We are locked and interlocked in a way that it would be self-distruction to our interprieture and personal welfare to allow Dr. Boyd to divide us as he has divided other Baptist bodies.
(2) The Moss Brothers, who seem to be giving "Editor Frank-Allen Bond," of Nashville-Kentucky, so much concern, have no personal axe to grind in this denominational controversy, and they can stand any strained relations which Boyd can bring about between the Seminary graduates, members, and friends of the Virginia Baptist State Convention and the Pennsylvania Convention, about as well as anyone else in this neck of the woods.
(3) We are not going to allow you nor your agents to come "pusky-footing" through this section to divide our forces on national issues, without a stabborn protest and a contesting of every inch of the ground from one section of the country to the other. And no fear of dividing the graduates of Virginia, Seminary, or scattering the forces of the Virginia Baptist State Convention or any other convention in this country, will deter us from acquainting the common people with the shameful attempt of "Bryd's Combine of Nine" to keep the demonstration from owning and operating its own publishing plant. Let us take heed in time, men, and close up
our ranks and remains as we have always been, loyal to the letter and spirit of our fathers.

WILSON HAS 276 ELECTORS
The Republican Nominee Has 255.
CALIFORNIA IS DEMOGRATIC
The President's Plurality 'Over Mr Hughea is Estimated at 403,312 Republic's Lead in House.
With unofficial returns from all the doubtful states orough precincts accounted for to place the electoral votes in one or the other column, Woodrow Wilson was reelected president with 276 electoral votes.
Charles Evans Hughea, the Republican nominee, with Minnesota belated returns placing him ahead of his opponent, has 256 electoral votes.
There are a number of isolated districts in New Mexico yet to be heard from, but it is not thought these ballots would materially affect the result in that far off state. The same conditions exist in Minnesota. Hughes maintains his plurality over the president by a safe margin with thirty eight districts missing and the guard vote still uncounted. The result of the balloting by the militiamen on the border will not be announced until next Tuesday, but these are likely to increase, rather than decrease the Hughes total and headquarters feel certain the state is safely Hughes. In three states, however, there were prospects of contests over one elector in each instance. The eligibility of a Democratic election in Texas has been questioned because he is said to be an officeholder and the federal laws prohibit a person holding office from serving as an elector.
One of the Democratic electors in Washington did just before election day and the party managers attached pasters to the ballots, substituting an other name for his. The legality of this procedure has been questioned by the Republican. A somewhat similar case has arisen in West Virginia, where one of the Republican electors refused to run and the Republican responded to pasters bearing another name in lieu of his.
