THE RICHMOND PANET VOLUME XXXVII, NO. J REPUBLICAN LEAD IN SENATE NOW MORE THAN SCORE While Revised Figures Indicate 150 Majority in Lower House, New York, Nov. 4. As almost record snapping electoral vote for Sonor Harding topping the 400 mark and Republican majorities of more than a score in the Senate and 150 in the House, were assured from virtually complete returns tonight from Tuesday's elections. With the Democratic strongholds of Oklahoma, Missouri and Tennesse definitely swept into the Republican ranks by the party's crushing victory the Harding Coolidge ticket had 236 votes, exclusive of the five from Montana, where the Republican State ticket was victorious and the presidential ticket ahead. The Republican landslide tonight had given the Republican fifty-eight Senate seats as against thirty-seven for the Democrats with late returns undermining the seat of Senator Beckham, Democrat, Kentucky. His Republican opponent, Richard E Erust tugged ahead in a nip-and-tuck fight for the only Senate fight left unsettled. GIVES BIG SENATE LEAD. Of the thirty-four Senate contests, the Republican won twenty-five and the Democrats nine. Among the Democratic Senators who today went down to defeat were Senators Chamberlin, of Oregon, former chairman of the military committee, Senator Smith of Arizona, who lost to former Representative Ralph Cameron, and Senator Henderson of Nevada, who was defeated by former Governor Olddie. Final returns from a few congressional districts still were belated to night, some due to close races which upset a few previous announcements and others from isolated sections. With these missing districts, the Republican rail in the House had climbed post 285 to 135 for the Democrats. Among House members whose reelection was reported definitely to night was Representative Volstead of Minnesota, author of the Volstead prohibition enforcement act and chairman of the House Judiciary Committee a position he is scheduled to retain. BECKHAM SEEMS BEATEN Election of Richard J. Ernst, Rep pulhaneh candidate for United States Senate from Kentucky, seemed as sure putight when the vote from all but twelve precincts in the State gave him a lead of 7,228 over the Democratic opponent J. C. W. Beekham. Governor Cox, however, had if majority of 3,958 over Senator Harding wish but nine precincts missing in the presidential contest. The vote in 3,217 precincts gave Harding, 458,623 Cox 462 581. The result of the voting in one precinct in Kentucky probably will not be known. A fight ensued at the polls and the ballot box was stolen according to telephone reports here today. This was in Breastbitt County the heart of the mountain district. 3. 4. 5. 6. MENACE OF THE KU KLUX. Patriotic Americans will view with profound misgivings the spread of the misguided movement of those Georgia zealots who have sought to revive the Ku Klux Klan of infamous memory in reconstruction days. To condemn this revival it is unnecessary to reopen, the controversies that have raged over the responsibility of the original organizers of the K. K. K. for the atrocities later committed in its name. It is enough that the present is a secret political or gratification ooly professing as one of its purposes the promotion of race antisociation. It were well if the American people reified, the extreme danger of aggression on the port of intelligent and educated people that tends to embitter the Negro population, already if only a portion of the enforced disabilities under which they live and aware of the latent power they possess, should they decide upon aggressive methods of meeting and mitigating their rights as citizens, in political equality under the constitution and under every righteous principle of humanity and justice. There is no room in our system for secret political parties and organizations, just as the K, K, K. was made the vehicle for gross tyranny and cruel oppression, there are already evidences that the revived Klan which made the older organization a criminal conspiracy, outlawed by every consideration of justice and decency. If there are no laws to check the spread of this new message to the peace and good order of the country, there ought to be no dela yon the port of the Congress. Legislatures in supplying the deficiency. No one is deceived by the gran diliquent pretensions of the modern & K. K. or its professions of Americanism and of patriotism. The opportunities for crime offered by the so ercey of its membership are enough to condemn it, even were its political purposes not so transparent. (Philadelphia, Pa. Ledger, Nov. 3.) TWO WOMEN ELECTED JUDGES IN CLEVELAND Cleveland. O. Nov. 4. — Two women have been elected to the bench in 'n this section. Miss Florence E.

And the mate of the Nancy Brig. And the Boatswain tight. And the midship mite And the crew of the captain's gigs.

Further tabulation of return- today bore out the report of late June that the twelve Republican Assembly nominees in Hudson County had been elected. --- A LETTER We have received a most interesting letter from Mr. Archil Johnson, who is now located at Terrtel, Canton Vond, Switzerland. He asks us to cone to the Planet's his address and among other things says: I have been and an still, under doctor's expenses for treatment for pulmonary trouble. The climate of England is vile for the first complaints, Fogs, mists, perma dampness gives one not born there perpetual trouble, if he would stave off consumption. First, I had bronchitis. I went into the Holborn In Primary and got over that. I came out and the doctors ordered me to the south of France to avoid pneumonia. I went. I am still threatened with double pneumonia and have been ordered to the dry, bracing air, of the Swiss Cantons, where I am. I may have to stay all Winter. My expenses are great; yet, I do like to know how goes the battle with the people of my race in America and W. L. and Bermuda, where I was born. I can only say I am an honest man and will live up to my objections. At present, I am making a fight for life. I do like and appreciate the Planet.

She voted for Cox. Some seventy-five Negro women were permitted by the Republican Election manager to cast ballots in the Sixth Ward in Atlanta over the protest of the Democratic manager, but it was announced later the ballots which were specially marked were thrown out when counting started.

HALF MILLION BOLLAR PURSE PUT UP FOR HEAVY BATTLE. ```markdown ``` New York, Nov. 5.—Jack Dempsey and Georges Carpentier signed a contract here today to fight for the world's heavyweight championship for a half million dollar purse. The date and place of the contest is not specifically stated in the agreement, but in other respects the contract is complete and definite. Dempsey is to receive $300,000 for defending the title. Carpentier, who holds the European heavyweight championship, will receive $200,000 as his share of the purse. Each fighter in addition is to hold 25 per cent of the moving picture corporation stock while the other 50 per cent goes to the three promoters, Tex Rickard, Charles Cochran and William A. Brady. ONE HALF MILLION PERSE The $100,000 purse is to be deposited with a bank or trust company located near the scene of the battle, at least 24 hours previous to the contest and will be divided between the principals immediately after the termination of the fight. Each pugilist, through his manager must post a $50,000 forfeit on or be late November 20, to be divided equally between his prospective opponents and the promoters if he fails to keep his part of the contract. The promoters also agreed to deposit $100,000 on or before the same date, to be divided equally between the pugilists should the promoters fail to carry out their part of the contract. The promoters agree to notify the principals not later than January 1, in case the fight is to be held during the month of March, 1921. If it is decided to stage the bout between May 29 and July 4, Dempsey and Carpenter are to be notified not later than March 4. The contract also calls for a contest ranging from ten to fifteen rounds to be held at a place to be selected later, either in the Unit 41 States, Canada, Mexico or Cuba. Numerous minor conditions linger upon the rules governing boxing in the place finally selected. These include the weight of the gloves, referee and judges, boudages and manner of awarding the verdict. --- BOTH BATTLEERS WILL FIGHT BEFORE BIG BOUT New York, Nov. 5:—Regardless of the fact that the promoters who signed Dempsey and Carpenter for the world's championship title presented a clause in the contract that neither should fight before the time scheduled for the big bout, it was waived, as the French champ, who calls for Prince today, is scheduled to box at Monte Carlo, while Dempsey personally announced he would battle Jess Wilford again on March 17. ```markdown ``` NEW RICHLAND CIRCLES GROWING IN MISSOURI Brought to you by: Harding: 120,000 Ahead; 13 Representatives Elected. St. Louis, Nov. 4. — Returns from sparsely settled outlying districts in Missouri, which only in recent years became even "doubtful" in its Democratic tendencies; today served to increase pluralities for nearly every Republican candidate. Only three counties had not been heard from tonight. Their returns were not expected until the official count, and political observers said there was little chance that they would change the status of any candidate. In the election to the House, with five precincts normally Democratic missing in the Fifth District (Dem) led Ellis (Rep) by 276 votes. Senator Harding led with a plurality of more than 120,000 but Senator Spencer running again; Breckenridge Long for the Senate fell behind his ticket, although his plurality was expected to be nearly 100,000. Thirteen Republicans and two Democrats were elected. Representatives a pair of eight for the former. One apparent Democratic victory was turned into defeat when an error of 2,000 votes in the First Congressional District gave the election as Representative to Milwaukee. Republican, when Romine, Democrat appear early had been reelected. Following closely on the defeat of Champ Clark, Democratic stabby in the Ninth District it became apparent today Captain's Milligan had lost in the Sixth, Milligan was elected to succeed Representative Alexander when Alexander became a member of President Wilson Cabinet. The election brought nationwide attention, being fought on the League of Nations issue. IN MEMORY In memory of my brother, Sam Henderson who departed this Life, November 8th, 1918, two years ago. Deep in my heart, that aches with the repression And strives with plenitude of bitter pains. There lives a thought that clamors for expression. The funeral of Dr. John E. Merkweather took place last Monday at 7 P. M. from his late residence, $20 N. Second street. James W. Poe, former editor of the Reformer, who died from a stroke of apoplexy was a former resident of Washington and his remains were carried there.

Louisville, Nov. 4.—Richard J. Ernst Republican candidate for United States Senator went into the lead today and with twenty-one precincts out of the entire State missing, he had a majority of 7,768 over Senator J. C. W. Beckham Democrat. The vote from 3,205 precincts out of 3,226 in the State gave Ernst; Republican, 462,019; Beckham Democrat 454, 281. Gov. Cox however, was still the leader in the State and with eighteen precincts missing in the State no 401,263, votes against 457,811 for Senator Harding. The swing of votes to Ernst began when mountain counties in the Tennessee and Eleventh Congressional districts began sending in returns. Earlier, relations indicated that Senator Beckham and befitted his opponent. At no point however would Republican State headquarters concede his prediction. They based their claims of 20,000 majority for Ernst on reports of estimate of majorities in the mountain districts, in which exact figures were not available. The result of the voting in one precinct in Kentucky probably will not be known. A fight ensued at the polls and the ballot box was stolen according to a telephone report here today. This was in Breaththill county, in the heart of the mountain district. Result of the vote in Wolfe county where there are nine precincts could not be learned tonight. There are no telephone or telegraph lines in the county.

I later taught school in Staunton—in the church of one notorious Derrick, late defunet A. M. E. Bishop. And that and Luray is the nearest, I have been to Richmond.

ONLY ONE WOMAN'S VOTE JS COUNTED IN GEORGIA ELECTION. Jn Unexplained Manner, Mrs. White Registered Under 6 Months' Requirement. Atlanta, Ga., Nov. 4.—Only one woman voted in Georgia, according to reports at the State Capitol today and she was Mrs. Mary Jarett White of Stephens County, who paid her taxes and registered at Toecca six months before the election thus complying with the State Law. Other women were barred by the six month's registration law, but there was no explanation of how Mrs. White managed to get her name registered before the nineteenth amendment was adopted. She voted for Cox. Some seventy-five Negro women were permitted by the Republican election manager to cast ballots in the Sixth Ward in Atlanta over the protest of the Democratic manager, but it was announced later the ballots which were specially marked were thrown out when counting started.

HALF MILLION DOLLAR PURSE PUT UP FOR HEAVY BATTLE. --- New York, Nov. 5.—Jack Dempsey and Georges Carpentier signed a contract here today to fight for the world's heavyweight championship for a half million dollar purse. The date and place of the contest is not specifically stated in the agreement, but in other respects the contract is complete and definite. Dempsey is to receive $300,000 for defending the title. Carpentier, who holds the European heavyweight championship, will receive $200,000 as his share of the purse. Each fighter in addition is to hold 25 per cent of the moving picture corporation stock while the other 50 per cent goes to the three promoters, Tex Rickard, Charles Cochran and William A. Brady. ONE-HALF MILLION PURSE The $500,000 purse is to be deposited with a bank or trust company located near the scene of the battle, at least 24 hours previous to the contest and will be divided between the principals immediately after the termination of the fight. Each pugilist, through his manager must post a $50,000 forfeit on or before November 20, to be divided equally between his prospective opponents and the promoters if he fails to keep his part of the contract. The promoters also agreed to deposit $100,000 on or before the same date, to be divided equally between the pugilists should the promoters fail to carry out their part of the contract. The promoters agree to notify the principals not later than January 1, in case the fight is to be held during the month of March, 1921. If it is decided to stage the bout between May 29 and July 4, Dempsey and Carpenter are to be notified not later than March 1. The contract also calls for a contest ranging from ten to fifteen rounds to be held at a place to be selected later, either in the Unit4 States, Canada, Mexico or Cuba. Numerous minor conditions hinge upon the rules governing boxing in the place finally selected. These include the weight of the gloves, referee and judges, bandages and manager of awarding the verdict. BOTH BATTLEERS WILL FIGHT BEFORE BIG BOUT New York, Nov. 5:—Regardless of the fact that the promoters who signed Dempsey and Carpentier for the world's championship title presented a clause in the contract that neither should fight before the time scheduled for the big bout, it was waived, as the French champ, who sails for France today, is scheduled to box at Monte Carlo, while Dempsey personally announced he would battle Jess Willard again on March 17. REPUBLICAN MIGRITES GROWING IN MISSOURI. Harding 120,000 Abad; 13 Representatives Elected. St. Louis, Nov. 4.—Returns from sparsely settled outlying districts in Missouri, which only in recent years became even "doubtful" in its Democratic tendencies, "today served to increase pluralities for nearly every Republican candidate. Only three-counties had not been heard from tonight. Their returns were not expected until the official count, and political observers said there was little chance that they would change the status of any candidate. In the election to the House, with five precincts normally Demo-cratic missing in the Fifth District Plain (Dem.) led Ellis (Rep.) by 256 votes. Senator Harding led with a plurality of more than 120,000 but Senator Spencer, running against Breckenridge Long for the Senate fell behind his ticket, although his plurality was expected to be nearly 100,000. Thirteen Republicans and two Democrats were elected Representatives a gain of eight for the former. One apparent Democratic victory was turned into defeat when an error of 2,000 votes in the First Congressional District gave the election as Representative to Millspill, Republican, when Romine, Democrat apparently had been re-elected. Following closely on the defeat of Champ Clark, Democratic stabby in the Ninth District it became apparent today Captain Milligan had lost in the Sixth. Milligan was elected to succeed Representative Alexander when Alexander became a member of President Wilson Cabinet. The election brought nationwide attention, being fought on the League of Nations issue. IN MEMORY In memory of my brother, Sam Henderson who departed this life, November 8th, 1918, two years ago. Deep in my heart, that aches with the repression And strives with plentitude of bitter pains, There lives a thought that clamors for expression And loses its undelivered force in vain. The funeral of Dr. John E. Merkweather took place last Monday at 3 P. M. from his late residence, 820 N. Second street. James W. Poe, former editor of the Reformer, who died from a stroke of apoplexy was a former resident of Washington and his remains were carried there. Mr. Isaiah Love of New York City arrived at the city last Sunday to attend the funeral of his step father. Mr. David S. Lee, of Lancaster County, Va. paid a flying visit to the city last Sunday. Mrs. Lucie E. C. Scott, Associate Major General visited Waterbury, Md., to the interest of the Uniform Department of the I. O. of Good Samaritans. Rev. L. R. W. Johnson, A. B. of Lynchburg, Va., conducted a successful Bible Institute at Fifth Street Baptist Church this week. —Mrs. Ella E. Hill, 525 N. Harrison street Fine Hair Dresser, also Scalp Treatment. The Commercial Bank and Trust Co., is located in the new Southern Aid building, 529 N. Second street. The opening Saturday, October 30th, was an imposing affair. An orchestra was employed to render selections. The equipment is very attractive and inviting. Prof. T. C. Erwin is the President. —Mr. George W. Rison of Danville Va., was in the city this week and called. TOURING PARTY Mr. W. Howlett Jones and party en route on an automobile trip home stopped here last week. They had visited Danville, Lynchburg, and many other places in this State. In the party were, Mr. and Mrs. Howlett Jones, Miss M. L. Gladman, Miss Clara Brown, and Mr. W. Pone. WANTED AT ONCE—A registered Druggist. Apply to Harrison Drug Co., 203 N. Union Street, Danville, Va. KENTUCKY ELECTS REPUBLICAN SENATOR. Cox Still Slightly Leads Harding for President. Louisville, Nov. 4.—Richard J. Ernst Republican candidate for United States Senator went into the lead today and with twenty-one precincts out of the entire State missing, he had a majority of 7,768 over Senator J. C. W. Beekham Democrat. The vote from 3,205 precincts out of 3,226 in the State gave Ernst; Republican, 462,049; Beekham Democrat 454,281. Gov. Cox however, was still the leader in the State and with eighteen precincts missing in the State had 401,263, votes against 457,841 for Senator harding. The swing of votes to Ernst began when mountain counties in the Tenth and Eleventh Congressional districts began sending in returns. Earlier, returns indicated that Senator Beckham had defeated his opponent. At no point however would Republican State headquarters concede his reelection. They based their claims of 20,000 majority for Ernst on reports of estimated majorities in the mountain districts, in which exact figures were not available. The result of the voting in one precinct in Kentucky probably will not be known. A fight ensued at the polls and the ballot box was stolen according to a telephone report here today. This was in Breathitt county, in the heart of the mountain district. Result of the vote in Wolfe county where there are nine precincts could not be learned tonight. There are no telephone or telegraph lines in the county. PRICE, FIVE CENTS FULTON NOTES. The rally at the Mount Calvary Baptist church will terminate on the fourth Sunday in this month and each member and friend is requested to make a creditable showing on that day. Our pastor is doing fine these days along the Spiritual success of the church. The 40th Anniversary of the church and the first of the pastor, which ended last week, was a numerical, financial and spiritual success. All of the ministerial brethren preached well. On Friday night Dr. Ransom of So. Richmond gave to every one presents thus the kind of food they needed and every one rejoiced in receiving their portion. Sunday morning everybody was eager to hear Rev. R. S. Brown of Mullica Hill, N. J., one of Calvary's own Sons. As he preached our hearts burned within us, because of the Powerful message coming from our Brother. The spirit of God really did manifest itself during delivery which was selected from the 33rd Chapter of Duet, and part of the 16th verse: "And for the good will of Him that dewlt in the bush." Our brother also administered the Lord's supper at 2:30 P. M. During both services a large representative of our brother's old acquaintance were present and went away better prepared to do more for the Master and His Kingdom. We must confess that the Mt. Calvary Baptist church of which our brother is pastoring in N. J., has in the person of Dr. R. S. Brown a real Gospel preacher. May the Lord bless him and his flock. Some of the sick are: Mrs. Rebecca White, Pearl Johnson, Sister Street and sister Bullucks. Sir Artenius Yates of the Fultora Lodge No. 42 is sick at his residence in South Richmond, Va. Rev. Alexander Hardgrove, of the Union Level Baptist church is conducting a Mission on Second St., Fulton. Let us encourage the young man by giving him our support, he cause he feels it to the Lord's work. GALA NIGHT OF ENQUISITE SONG CULTURE. Madame Savilla E.

In praying remember that faith without works is dead. Colored folks as a rule either deand demand too much or ask too little. Some people mistake their own notions for fundamental principles of right Colored people, who "look up," are becoming more numerous than those, who "look down." Going to heaven is all right, but too few of us consider what we expect to do when we get there. A person born wrong cannot be made to live right either in this world or in the world to come. Some people are so mean and ill natured that they cannot keep their own mouths straight. Teaching children properly when they are young will save a world of trouble in teaching them when they are older. A dog is man's best friend. A good woman is man's next best friend and a bad woman is undoubtedly his worst enemy. Some people are worried about the people living on the stars. Most of us are worried by people living on this earth. The outlook for harmony inside of the Democratic Party is about as favorable as the outlook for peace in Europe. Some women's greatest ambition in life is to get a husband and after they get him their fondest desire is to get rid of him. When a man gets tired of a woman, he is so tired and when a woman gets tired of a man, she leaves him forth with, if not sooner. Going down a hill is much easier than climbing the same elevation. That is why so many people prefer going down a hill. If you are polite and obliging to white folks, you will naturally be polite and obliging to colored folks and vice-versa. Colored folks, make friends with the write folks and keep doing it. The time is coming when we shall need both their good-will and their support. Controlling one's passions is the most difficult task in this life and yet some people can control their passions as absolutely a they do the fingers on the hand. The most difficult part of this life is living successfully and the easiest part of it is dying on short notice. In this particular case everybody seems to be seeking the most difficult part. Confidence is the outgrowth of friendship and love is the outgrowth of friendship. You can destroy all 3 by a lack of common sense and the exercise of down-right foolishness. The agitators are urging the rank end file of our people to go to Africa. Those of us who regard ourselves as "citizens of the United States, that's all" cannot see our way to emigrate to a foreign land. No colored man was elected to Congress during the recent land-slide and once more, we shall have an "all white" House of Representatives. We did get representation though in some of the legislatures of some of the northern States. Hon. William J. Bryan is happy over the fact that at no time during his control of the Democratic Party has he been guilty of securing such defeat as Governor James M. Cox secured. Most colored folks like a good time and they spend all of their earnings in having it, but there are thousands of others, who enjoy themselves and at the same time save some of their money for "the rainy day." President Woodrow Wilson is getting out of the White House and he does not seem to be worried because Senator Warren G. Harding will get there. He offered him a government vessel and the use of his private yacht, the Mayflower for his present trip, but he did not accept Hon. William J. Bryan's suggestion to offer him the White House, before his time to get there. --- The death of George W. Stevens, President of the Chesapeake and Ohio Railroad removes from this life one of the best men, it had been our pleasure to meet. He was able, resourceful and influential. In his dealings with his subordinates, he was kind, resourceful, impressive, and convincing. When he closed his eyes in death, that great railroad system lost an official whose place it will be difficult to fill. Peace to his ashes; rest to his soul. The defeat of Hon. Champ Clark, of Missouri is one of the tragic events of this election. This distinguished statesman had served his people well and his retirement will be universally regretted by all who have had the opportunity to observe his spectacul lar career. While disagreeing with President Wilson, he obeyed the party call and as a result, he has paid the price for his devotion. --- What we would like to know is how Senator Warren G. Harding can expect to get on with Hon. Harry C. Smith and Hon. Ralph W. Tyler living in the same State. We have no doubt that Harry can tell how it can be done to the absolute satisfaction of the Republican voters of the Buckeye State. All he has to do is to consult with the able editor of the Cleveland Gazette and follow the advice given. Brother Smith will insist that any colored leader, who can poll about sixty-thousand votes in a Republican primary, should be entitled to he heard and all others should keep silent—until he is heard. The Ku Klux Klan that has been holding nightly meetings on Stone Mountain in Georgia will read with trepidation and fear the announcement of the land-slide in this country to Senator Warren G. Harding and Governor C. D. Coolidge. In the mean time, the colored folks of the country are rubbing up their shot-guns preparing to go hunting as the time for hunting season is here. Let us have peace and a plenty of it. A WORD ABOUT MR. BRYAN. You may say what you will, but Hon. William J. Bryan of Nebraska has revolutionized affairs in this country and has been the indirect cause of well-nigh breaking up both of the political parties. Col. Theodore Roosevelt, during the years of his strenuous career embraced many of THE RICHMOND PLANET, RICHMOND, VIRGINIA the theories and advocated many of the policies, which were directly traceable to Mr. Bryan. The trouble with the distinguished Commoner is his disposition to lead and to be too far in the lead in the advocacy of radical ideas. He gave the laboring movement its greatest impetus and he sent the trusts of the nation into discard. He advocated woman suffrage and the constitutional amendment was enacted as a result of his steadfast advocacy of the movement. He took up tory and the result was a victory for the Prohibition Party in side of both of the dominant parties. The temple he had built up, he went in this year to tear down by a negative opposition and as a result the Democratic Party under the leadership of President Woodrow Wilson has met its greatest defeat. In language that is ironical and caustic, Mr. Bryan calls upon President Woodrow Wilson to resign and to permit Senator Warren G. Harding who has just carried the country in the recent "solemn referendum" on the League of Nations issue to enter the White House of the Nation and to carry out the demands of the people at the earliest possible moment. It will be seen and realized that this is an indirect way of rebuking President Wilson for saying one thing and doing another. He has been advocating a world democracy and yet when the voice of the people has been heard and registered, he refuses to obey the mandate encouched in this voice and which has been registered at the polls. We take it that Hon. William J. Bryan being above want is now devoting the remaining years of his life in completing the reforms that have constituted his work of a life-time. Certain it is, he will yet prove to be the veritable stumbling block that bars the way to Democratic success and he can only be removed by a recognition of his power and by the adoption of the principles that he advocates. Until death removes the one or the other, it will be Bryan and Wilson and Wilson and Bryan. President Wilson has not accepted as final, the verdict recorded at the polls and from his recent utterances will make an effort to reverse that verdict as the years roll by. A FURTHER REVIEW OF THE RETURNS. Some of our people seem to labor under the impression that in some one of the wards in this city, the colored people had a majority in the number of votes cast and accordingly could elect a representative to the City Council. As a matter of fact, every ward in the city went Democrat and every precinct, but two went the same. Those two were the Fifth Precinct in Lee Ward, which out of a total vote of 682, gave Attorney J. P. Pollard 530 votes and First Madison, which out of a total vote of 629 gave Pollard 450 votes. Will the National Republican organization recognize this racial discrimination within the Party and will it make it necessary to have another appeal to the Party, when the national organization again assembles 4 years hence? It seems to us that there are stormy times ahead and it will be a "foot-race," and not a walk for recognition at the hands of the Republican Party's leaders. Refiring from the regular Republican organization will leave the present racial oligarchy in control. Can coolness, skill and good judgment be exercised to the end that the dominating Negro-hating element may be over-thrown? Hon. Henry W. Anderson promised much and succeeded in doing little. The showing in this State is not such as to lend encouragement to the plan for the over-throw of the Democratic machine in Virginia. Hon. C. Bascom Slemp seems to have built a Chinese wall around the Ninth Congressional District for the Republican Party. but outside of these limits, Republ canism is still in discard. DEMOCRATIC STATESMEN VINDICATED Senator Thomas P. Gore, of Okla homa will no doubt review with ab solute satisfaction the returns, which tell of the defeat of the Democratic Candidate for United States Senate The administration sent its agents to that State to defeat him because he opposed the League of Nations and the Versailles Covenant. As a result Oklahoma that did not have an opportunity to vote for the blind Senator voted for a Republican, who was virtually his proxy, in that he holds the same view relative to this Treaty that Senator Gore has so ably expressed. By the vote Senator Gore has been vindicated and his opponent discredited and the reverberations of the election returns are still to be heard in Washington. While the issues are not so clear Senator James A. Reed of Missouri, who was denied a seat in the National Democratic Convention after having been duly elected by his constituents is experiencing a similar sensation in that his State has gone overwhelmingly against the Wilson League of Nations and has overturned the Democratic machine in that State, which machine was in the hands of the Wilson Democrats The building up of personal machines inside of the great national parties is becoming deservingly unpopular. Politicians under the guise of statesmanship have been saying one thing and doing another and the people have gotten tired of this kind of deception. TWO WHITE, FIVE COLORED, DIE IN BALLOT FIGHT. Wholesale Lynching Follows Raco Clash in Florida Orlando, Fla. Nov. 3.—Pive Negroes have been burned to death and another hung to a tree as the result of a fight which started at the polls at Ocoee, near here, last night, after election officials had refused to permit Mose Norman, a Negro, to vote on the ground that he had failed to pay his poll tax. Two white men were shot and killed and several others, including a former police chief wore wounded in the fight which preceded the whole sale lynching. The Negroes burned met death in houses in which were fired. The sixth Negro killed was taken from a jail early this morning by a mob. According to accounts received here Norman left the polls after being refused a vote and returned later with a shotgun in his automobile. He was alleged to have made threats against the election officials and finally was knocked down when he reached for the gun. He escaped into the Negro section where it was reported the Negro were gathering in crowds. Later when an attempt was made to arrest Norman fire was opened from the house in which the man had taken on refuge. Lee Borgard and Elmer McDaniels, whitq men, were killed. An attempt was made to run the Negro from the house, which finally was fired. One Negro, Jules Perry, was arrested and he was the man who later was lynched by the mob.

In praying remember that faith without works is dead. Colored folks as a rule either demand too much or ask too little. Some people mistake their own notions for fundamental principles of right Colored people, who "look up," are becoming more numerous than those, who "look down." Going to heaven is all right, but too few of us consider what we expect to do when we get there. A person born wrong cannot be made to live right either in this world or in the world to come. Some people are so mean and ill mature that they cannot keep their own mouths straight. Teaching children properly when they are young will save a world of trouble in teaching them when they are older. A dog is man's best friend. A good woman is man's next best friend and a bad woman is undoubtedly his worst enemy. Some people are worried about the people living on the stars. Most of us are worried by people living on this earth. The outlook for harmony inside of the Democratic Party is about as favorable as the outlook for peace in Europe. Some women's greatest ambition in life is to get a husband and after they get him their fondest desire is to get rid of him. When a man gets tired of a woman, he is so tired and when a woman gets tired of a man, she leaves him forth with, if not sooner. Going down a hill is much easier than climbing the same elevation. That is why so many people prefer going down a hill. If you are polite and obliging to white folks, you will naturally be polite and obliging to colored folks and vice-versa. Colored folks, make friends with the write folks and keep doing it. The time is coming when we shall need both their good-will and their support Controlling one's passions is the most difficult task in this life and yet some people can control their passions as absolutely a they do the fingers on the hand. The most difficult part of this life is living successfully and the easiest part of it is dying on short notice. In this particular case everybody seems to be seeking the most difficult part. Confidence is the outgrowth of friendship and love is the outgrowth of friendship. You can destroy all 3 by a lack of common sense and the exercise of down-right foolishness. The agitators are urging the rank end file of our people to go to Africa. Those of us who regard ourselves as "citizens of the United States, that's all" cannot see our way to emigrate to a foreign land. No colored man was elected to Congress during the recent slide and once more, we shall have an "all white" House of Representatives. We did get representation though in some of the legislatures of some of the northern States. --- Hon. William J. Bryan is happy over the fact that at no time during his control of the Democratic Party has he been guilty of securing such defeat as Governor James M. Cox secured. Most colored folks like a good time and they spend all of their earnings in having it, but there are thousands of others, who enjoy themselves and at the same time save some of their money for "the rainy day." President Woodrow Wilson is getting out of the White House and he does not seem to be worried because Senator Warren G. Hairding will get there. He offered him a government vessel and the use of his private yacht, the Mayflower for his present trip, but he did not accept Hon. William J. Bryan's suggestion to offer him the White House, before his time to get there. 9.3 The death of George W. Stevens, President of the Chesapeake and Ohio Railroad removes from this life one of the best men, it had been our pleasure to meet. He was able, resourceful and influential. In his dealings with his subordinates, he was kind, resourceful, impressive, and convincing. When he closed his eyes in death, that great railroad system lost an official whose place it will be difficult to fill. Peace to his ashes; rest to his soul. The defeat of Hon. Champ Clark, of Missouri is one of the tragic events of this election. This distinguished statesman had served his people well and his retirement will be universally regretted by all who have had the opportunity to observe his spectacular career. While disagreeing with President Wilson, he obeyed the party call and as a result, he has paid the price for his devotion. --- What we would like to know is how Senator Warren G. Harding can expect to get on with Hon. Harry C. Smith and Hon. Ralph W. Tyler living in the same State. We have no doubt that Harry can tell how it can be done to the absolute satisfaction of the Republican voters of the Buckeye State. All he has to do is to consult with the able editor of the Cleveland Gazette and follow the advice given. Brother Smith will insist that any colored leader, who can poll about sixty-thousand votes in a Republican primary, should be entitled to be heard and all others should keep silent—until he is heard. --- The Ku Klux Klan that has been holding nightly meetings on Stone Mountain in Georgia will read with trepidation and fear the announcement of the land-slide in this country to Senator Warren G. Harding and Governor C. D. Coolidge. In the mean time, the colored folks of the country are rubbing up their shot-guns preparing to go hunting as the time for hunting season is here. Let us have peace and a plenty of it. A WORD ABOUT MR. BRYAN. You may say what you will, but Hen. William J. Bryan of Nebraska has revolutionized affairs in this country and has been the indirect cause of well-nigh breaking up both of the political parties. Col. Theodore Roosevelt, during the years of his strenuous career embraced many of THE RICHMOND PLANET, RICHMOND, VIRGINIA the theories and advocated many of the policies, which were directly traceable to Mr. Bryan. The trouble with the distinguished Commoner is his disposition to lead and to be too far in the lead in the advocacy of radical ideas. He gave the laboring movement its greatest impetus and he sent the trusts of the nation into discard. He advocated woman suffrage and the constitutional amendment was enacted as a result of his steadfast advocacy of the movement. He took up the cudgel against the liquor interest championing the movement with his formidable with the historic and invincible oratory and the result was a victory for the Prohibition Party inside of both of the dominant parties. The temple he had built up, he went in this year to tear down by a negative opposition and as a result the Democratic Party under the leadership of President Woodrow Wilson has met its greatest defeat. In language that is ironical and caustic, Mr. Bryan calls upon President Woodrow Wilson to resign and to permit Senator Warren G. Harding who has just carried the country in the recent "solemn referendum" on the League of Nations issue to enter the White House of the Nation and to carry out the demands of the people at the earliest possible moment. It will be seen and realized that this is an indirect way of rebuking President Wilson for saying one thing and doing another. He has been advocating a world democracy and yet when the voice of the people has been heard and registered, he refuses to obey the mandate encouched in this voice and which has been registered at the polls. We take it that Hon. William J. Bryan being above want is now devoting the remaining years of his life in completing the reforms that have constituted his work of a lifetime. Certain it is, he will yet prove to be the veritable stumbling block that bars the way to Democratic success and he can only be removed by a recognition of his power and by the adoption of the principles that he advocates. Until death removes the one or the other, it will be Bryan and Wilson and Wilson and Bryan. President Wilson has not accepted as final, the verdict recorded at the polls and from his recent utterances will make an effort to reverse that verdict as the years roll by. A FURTHER REVIEW OF THE RETURNS. Some of our people seem to labor under the impression that in some note of the wards in this city, the colored people had a majority in the number of votes cast and accordingly could elect a representative to the City Council. As a matter of fact, every ward in the city went Democrat and every precinct, but two went the same. Those two were the Fifth Precinct in Lee Ward, which out of a total vote of 682, gave Attorney J. P. Pollard 530 votes and First Madison, which out of a total vote of 629 gave Pollard 450 votes. Will the National Republican organization recognize this racial discrimination within the Party and will it make it necessary to have another appeal to the Party, when the national organization again assembles 4 years hence? It seems to us that there are stormy times ahead and it will be a "foot-race," and not a walk for recognition at the hands of the Republican Party's leaders. Retiring from the regular Republican organization will leave the present racial oligarchy in control. Can coolness, skill and good judgment be exercised to the end that the dominating Negro-hating element may be over-thrown? Hon. Henry W. Anderson promised much and succeeded in doing little. The showing in this State is not such as to lend encouragement to the plan for the over-throw of the Democratic machine in Virginia. Hon. C. Bascom Slemp seems to have built a Chinese wall around the Ninth Congressional District for the Republican Party but outside of those limits, Republic canism is still in discard. DEMOCRATIC STATESMEN VINDICATED Senator Thomas P. Gore, of Oklahoma will no doubt review with all solute satisfaction the returns, which tell of the defeat of the Democratic Candidate for United States Senate The administration sent its agents to that State to defeat him because he opposed the League of Nations and the Versailles Covenant. As a result Oklahoma that did not have an opportunity to vote for the blind Senator voted for a Republican, who was virtually his proxy, in that he holds the same view relative to this Treaty that Senator Gore Las so ably expressed. By the vote Senator Gore has been vindicated and his opponent discredited and the reverberations of the election returns are still to be heard in Washington. While the issues are not so clear Senator James A. Reed of Missouri, who was denied a seat in the National Democratic Convention after having been duly elected by his constituents is experiencing a similar sensation in that his State has gone overwhelmingly against the Wilson League of Nations and has overturned the Democratic machine in that State, which machine was in the hands of the Wilson Democrats. The building up of personal machines inside of the great national parties is becoming deservingly an popular. Politicians under the guise of statesmanship have been saying one thing and doing another and the people have gotten tired of this kind of deception. TWO WHITE, FIVE COLORED, DIE IN BALLOT FIGHT. Wholesale Lynching Follows Racel Clash in Florida Orlando, Fla. Nov. 3.—Five Negroes have been burned to death and another hung to a tree as the result of a fight which started at the polls at Oceoe, near here, last night, after election officials had refused to permit Mose Norman, a Negro, to vote on the ground that he had failed to pay his poll tax. Two white men were shot and killed and several others, including a former police chief were wounded in the fight which preceded the whole sale lynching. The Negroes burned met death in houses in which were fired. The sixth Negro killed was taken from a jail early this morning by a mob. According to accounts received here Norman left the polls after being refused a vote and returned later with a shotgun in its automobile. He was alleged to have made three's against the election officials and finally was knocked down when he reached for the gun. He escaped into the Negro section where it was reported the Negroes were gathering in crowds. Later when an attempt was made to arrest Norman fire was opened from the house in which the man had tak en refuge. Lee Borgard and Elmer McDaniels, white men, were killed. An attempt was made to run the Negroes from the house, which finally was fired. One Negro, Jules Perry, was arrested and he was the man who later was lynched by the mob.

MILLDR, Highland Park, Richmond, Va 1 on ) STRENT, RICHMOND, VIRGINIA, OVER THREE THOUSAND HAYTIANS MURDERED AND THE REPORTS SUPPRESSED (New York Herald) For almost two years the Wilson Administration deliberately has suppressed full and accurate information of deplorable conditions brought about in the Republic of Hayti by the American occupation. The evidence shows clearly that the slaughter of 3,250 natives by the marine corps in the last two years, which was admitted officially only after Senator Harding laid bare the Haytian scandal, is due chiefly to the strong anti-American feeling engendered in the island republic by the methods of the American occupation, which has destroyed any vestige of independence there. These conditions are described by an eye witness who is now in Washington ready and eager to give his testimony already long in possession of the State and Navy departments, to the naval court of inquiry named by Secretary of the Navy Daniels after the attention of the court was brought to the itation in the little black republic by Senator Harding. This man is the Rev. Dr. L. Ton Evans, a Welshman by birth, with letters of recommendation from David Lloyd George and from prominent Americans, including the late Theo deere Roosevelt. He is a naturalized American who for twenty-five years had been engaged in Baptist missionary work in Hayti. FIRST REPORT MADE IN 1918 The New York Herald correspondent has in his possession documents which prove that Dr. Evans first brought this deplorable state of affairs in Hayti to the attention of the State department in the fall of 1918 more than three years after the American marines were landed there. Other documents show he repeatedly has called the attention of the Navy Department and other branches of the government to conditions there. Absolutely nothing has been done, so far as can be learned to better these conditions, and a specific request made by Dr. Evans for an unbiased non-military and non-political commission toquire into the Haytian wrongs under American occupation was ignored after repeated informal "promises" to do something about it. Statements from Secretary Daniels and others representing the Administration that they acted as soon as any irregularities in Hayti or any complaints were brought to their attention are disproved. Dr. Evans came to this country from Hayti in 1918 to bring to the attention of President Wilson and the Government authorities at Washington this state of affairs in the island republic He could not believe these conditions would be permitted to continue if once they were told to the responsible government officials in Washington. LETTER FROM STATE DEPARTMENT. The following is a letter showing that he laid the facts before the State Department at that time: Washington, Nov. 2, 1918. Dr. I. Ton Evans, 226 Chestnut street, Kingston, Pa. Sir: The department has received your memorandum upon conditions in Haytli presented on October 21, addressed to the President of the United States and wishes to inform you that it is receiving the serious consideration of this department as well as of the various other branches of the Government concerned' The Department will be pleased to communicate with you at a later date after the careful study of the matter contained in your memorandum is terminated. I am, sir, your obedient servant, for the Secretary of State. ALVEY A. ADEE, Second Assistant Secretary Everything indicates that the "careful study" given to the matters mentioned in Dr. Evans memorandum consisted of pushing it into some already over full pigeonhole or old letter file and forgetting all about it. If indeed it was not thrown into a State Department waste basket which is cleaned out by the janitor every evening. This memorandum mentioned by Assistant Secretary Adee's letter of November 2, 1918, was handed in person by Dr. Evans to an official of the State Department a Mr. Stabler, then in charge of the Latin-American section of the State Department and especially detailed to handle Haitian affairs. The facts were at the same time held before Senator Hiteckeck of Nebraska, then chairman of the Senate Committee on Foreign Relations. Since that time Dr. Evans has encoveered repeatedly, but without success, to get this Government to recognize the situation in Hayti. He has several times notified Secretary Daniels, his last letter being dated as late as October 5, 1920. Dr. Evans insists that a mere naval board of inquiry never will be able to get the facts before the American people. He said to day, that the American military representatives—the marines and the so-called genders—officered in many instances by renege white men from the States, have so overawed the natives that they cannot be made to tell the truth; that they are afraid of their lives of uttering a word in criticism of their white superiors or of any of the black native policemen in the pay of the white officers. As evidence of this state of affairs be told about his own arrest on trumped up charges as the result of a conspiracy formulated by a white captain of gendarmes, against whom he had made a personal protest in the private office of Col. Russell, who was in supreme command of the marines, because of the bad example this captain was setting the natives in a certain village by his mode of living. When the case was brought before the high court it was at once dismissed for want of even a scientific of evidence and the officer who made the arrest and kept Dr. Evans in a vile native jail for thirteen days with the Negroes was informed abruptly there was no authority in the first place for the arrest of Dr. Evans. Nevertheless on his release he again was compelled by the same officer under threat of rearrest to go in an open boat at night a long distance to another point on the island to face again the same charges which again turned out to be groundless in every particular. It is the firm belief of the native population, as the result of the American occupation since July 28, 1915 that the United States is trying to reestablish the system of slavery which their forefathers know. Dr. Evans believes it is high time the American people were fully informed of what is being done by their Government in Hayti in order that this helpless little black republic have the sort of civilizing and humanizing it deserves' Dr. Evans says the amazing number of indiscriminate killings of natives to which the Marine Corps officials have confessed and which is the subject of the present investigation is but a small part of the case. More important than anything else in his opinion is the terrible blow being given to American prestige not only in Hayt1 but elsewhere in the Latin American countries to which stories of the American military moths are getting abroad, despite every effort on the part of the military overlords to keep everything unfavourable to their regime from reaching a friendly channels. DOCUMENTS REVEAL SCANDAL The New York Herald is able to present hereditary extracts of the documents in the possession of various departments laying bare the whole Haytian affair and which will be brought to the attention of the Daniels inquiry board and elucidated by Dr. Evans himself. Dr. Evans is waiting in Washington for this purpose and is willing and anxious to appear before this committee or any other that may be named and to go with the committee to Haytyl. He expects to have counsel to assist him in presenting the case in an orderly manner. Dr. Evans in a memorandum suitmitted to the State Department after consultation with Senator Hitchcock and which bears the date of October 21, 1918 makes it clear there is no animus behind his charges. At the beginning of this memorandum Dr. Evans assures the President and State Department of the "goinear gratitude shared by every loyal and patriotic Haytian native, both educated and uneducated alike, because Admiral Caperton landed his American marines at Port-au-Prince, thus rescuing them from the Iron grasp and selfish greed of Germans who for years have financially and murderously exploited them by aid of Berlin money and ammunition." SUMMARY OF THE CHARGES Here briefly is a summary of the charges quoted verbatim from Dr. Evans memorandum of October 21, 1918 as submitted to the State Department. In order to make his statement more impressive these charges were embodied in an affidavit sworn by Dr. Evans before notary in Washington, a copy of which is in the possession of The New York Herald correspondent: "1. The forcing of a new constitution upon the people under military pressure of armed gendarmes (native police) of the American occupation on the 12th day of June last, so as to put in a clause in favor of the white man and foreigner, and accom plishing this by methods which have been declared in the United States and all civilized countries to be both illegal and fraudulent. The intelligent Haytians connected with the Government of American occupation, who in fear and trembling were com pelled to vote or be dismissed or im prisoned if they refused, very aptly described these humiliating processes as 'thrusting a dagger at the very heart of our own Negro republic. 2. The closing on two separate oceans of the Senate and Chamber of Deputies at Port-au-Prince; the turning out by military forces under the American occupation of the Haitian people's only representative bodies and the locking of the doors again them, just as the late Czar did with the Russian people's Duna and while these officials were openly friendly to the United States and favourable to our American occupation, merely it is said because they protested and opposed as illegal and unconstitutional a change of what they felt to be the vital clause of their constitution namely, the clause which withholds the ownership of land from the white foreigner and the speculaor' Haitian judges who declared this to be illegal are said to have been either driven out of office or in prisoned or both, in spite of the fact that under the old Haitian constitution foreigners, white or colored, could hold real estate in Haiti by be coming citizens of Haiti. 3. The taking through force and with much brutality by ignorant, immoral and drunken gendarmes in the employment of the American occupation of innocent men and women even native preachers and members of their churches, from their simple small habitations or from their work and cruelly roping them tightly together and marching them as Afri can slave gangs to prison. The writ or and others were eye witnesses on a Sunday morning in June last to the treatment of the wounds of prisoners who had undergone this experience, by the occupation doctor- wounds which had gone unhealed for many weeks and months. The white American doctors said those cases were very frequent. 4. The arresting of natives in large numbers in their homes and on the small farms and making them work on new roads under armed gen darmes for merely a gourd (20 American cents) a week without furnishing them with food. ROANOKE NEWS ROANOKE, VA., November 9.—Rev. James S. Hatcher, B. D, spoke to the people of Mt. Zion A, M. E. Church Sunday morning from Jeremiah 8:22; subject, A Cry for the Balm of Gilead. This learned prelate explained the wonderful effect of ALL PROTESTS ARE IGNORED. Failing to move the State Department Dr. Evans finally turned his attention to the Navy Department and to Secretary Daniels, the official in control of the United States Marines who have been acting jointly with the State Department in the Ameri can occupation. He wrote to Mr. Daniels on March 27, 1920, calling attention to the fact that he had ap prised the State Department in the fall of 1918 of what was going on in Hayt without anything doing done about it. He said more than seventeen months before he had sugested to Mr. Adee the appointment of an unbiased commission to inquire into the situation, and was in formed by letter that the Department was "seriously considering the grave conditions set forth" in his memorandum. In the same letter he told Secretary Daniels that Mr. Adee had promised to let him know the result of his investigation but had never done so. The New York Herald correspondent quotes the following extracts from this remarkable letter from Dr. Evans to Mr. Daniels on March 27 last: "Over seventeen months have elapsed since the receipt of the above assurance from Mr. Adee with not a word from our United States Government. 'In the meantime, however, conditions have been allowed to grow rapidly worse among these suffering oppressed, enraged and terror strict on people—as evidenced even by the riots between the marines and genders not to say the more frequent and daring raids by the so-called bindits, or cacos, who are daily growing in strength and numbers and who are at the same time gaining ing the real sympathy of more and more of the moderate intelligent, educated and better class of Haitians who have lost respect for our American occupation. With our influence therefore, on the wane and our prestige and power ai; but gone and our motives and integrity as a democratic, civilized, not to say Christian, nation suspect ed and impugned it is no wonder that a staff correspondent of the New York World, who visited Haytia a little over a month ago, should state: "It should be remembered that there are many educated and substantial citizens of Port-au-Prince who are no more cacos than Henry Cabot Lodge is a feather duster, who none the less desire a complete change of administration and the ending of the present occupation. Since the letter of March 27 Dr. Evans has had other correspondence with Secretary Daniels on the subject of Heytli and up to the last few days he apparently continued to have faith that a proper inquiry would be made and the conditions improved. He sent Mr. Daniels under date of October 5, 1920 an exhaustive resume of the whole matter' ELEUNES INQUIRY BELITTLED In his letter Dr. Evans said: After a careful reading of the quotation from the official statement or report of Gen' John A. Lejeune's hurried visit to Hayti after my letter to you of March, I find they fall even to touch the vital points. I candidly state that if I had not been anxious from the commencement, three years ago, to keep entirely out of party politics in missionary and Hayti matters, and if I had not in spite of the strong criticism and the severe condemnation of the President and the Secretary of the Navy still firmly be believed that you both sincerely wished to right all the past and present wrongs of this Administration in poor Hayti. I would certainly after reading this morning's statement, have immediately given a startling reply to the Associated Press and at once directed my steps to Marion an the headquarters of the Republican party disappointedly convinced that further efforts on the part of Hayti and myself were utterly futile and a mere waste of time. The New York Herald correspondent has before him a complete copy of the detailed and painting state of Haytian conditions brought up to date and mailed to Secretary Daniels on October 5, 1920, by Dr. Evans. It contains upward of 6,000 words. It will be undoubtedly placed in evidence before Mr. Daniels's naval board, and if any attempt is made to suppress it there it will be brought to light before a Congressional inves tigation committee.

Hayden of Remarkable Care—Doctors Had Given Her Up—A Few Bottles Accomplish Marvelous Results. J. J. Hayden, Richmond, Va., Dear Sir,—A grateful heart and an appreciation of your medical skill prompts me to make a statement of my daughter's case. I can truthfully say I believe your medicine saved my daughter's life. When she began your medicine she had been given up by several doctors, and my friends had lost all hope of her recovery. She had suffered seven months with dropical trouble and Bright's disease her body swelling to an enormous size, totally blind for several days at a time, also delirious at her worst stages, finally going into spasms, as many as twenty-five or thirty in one day, going from one right into another; her skin peeled off, also losing her finger nails, and continuing in that condition for months. Such was her condition when I commenced on Mr. L. J. Hayden's remedies. After using his medicines only nine days she began to improve, and now at the end of two months there is no symptom nor sign of the old disease. Be assured that whenever I have it in my power I shall recommend it your invaluable remedies. I thank you a thousand times for what you have done for my daughter and for the kindness which you have extended to me throughout. Wishing you long and continued.

BRYAN WANTS BRAND NEW PARTY. Washington, Nov, 4.—Complete re: organization of jhe Demoratic party and, failing in that. the oranization of an entire new party will, be con sidored at a conference of Democrat je leaders opposed to the domination of President Wilson and Gevernor Cox in Washington, between the tonth and fifteenth of November, 1 was learned from an authoritative source today. ‘The call was issued a week before the election. Although William Jennings Bryan was not resnonstble for the eall_and auece § of the venture is nop entirely dcpendent upon him, the commoner, it was stated today, as it means {rouble for democracy will be ono of the most active participants in the conference. Mr. Bryan is convinced, as he has heen ‘ever since he left the eabinel, that the domination of President WS fon has been so disatrous that. tho Democratic party in reality no long er oxists and that It must be reorga nized under a different name. He is Jeath, for sentimental reasons, it fs understood to altogether abandon the name “democratic.” An effort will also be made to seek affiliation with certain elements in the non-partisan leagite which has oon spreading with great rapidity through North and Sonth Dakota Minnesota with the Farmer-Labor ;Party which is showing — ineroasing i strength. | ‘ine folowing statement kas been made by Bryan: “While Uhe majorities are larger than even the Republican leaders ex pected, a Democratic defeat was in Cvitube and he blaine fs easly pie ed. ‘The President laid tie foundations for the disaster aad Governor Cox completed the structure. ‘The President attempied lo drive out of pubtic. ite every Democrat whe dared (o dilfer from him, even in minute deuwt white he made no clort to strenghten the Demeera's who made hin the keeper of thelr consetonee, Ho alionated all Repablican sup pert and invited partisan opposition by his appea. Just before the election of 1918 he asked for a Congress text Wold support his personal leader ship and then, though knowing fall well hat the ‘majority Inthe. nation Was against him, he refused to deal with the Senate as a coordinate branch of the government. “Instead of recogntaing that the constitutional provision requiring a two-thirds majority for ral(ification compelled compromise, he insisted up on diolating Ure terms upon. whieh ratifleation could be had, and. then, on che 10th of March stubbornly re fected the ratification with reserva- tions, even when Senator TMarding and ‘some thirty-five other Republi: cans wero willing to accept the Teague as he wrote it with the few changes upon which they ‘insisted. Governor Cox Instead of “repairing tho imauiry done by the President ag gravated the situation by the manner { which he nvolded ‘domestic issues and misrepresented he position of tae Republican party’ on’ the leagwe isu which he declared to be para. mount. He dodged the Uquor ‘ques tion, seeking to create tin the West the ‘imprassion that he favored pro Uibition, while attempting to hold the wet! vote of the East by his wet record. He sought to eonelliate Wall Street by advocating the. re- peal Of the excess profits tax, while he appealed to the West against the reactionaries. Mis allempts to put the Democratic party in the atl tude of being the sole guardian of peace were rlazetous.”” BRYAN CALLS ON WILSON TO RESIGN AND MARSHALL 'TO GUL OUT IN DECEMBER, 3 Chicago, Nov. 4.—Wiliam Jen Nings Bryan here today suggested that as a result of the election, Pre: ident Wilson resign immediately, a lowing Vied\President. Marshall 4 assume the office, ‘Marshall Bryan said, should ap ‘point President-clect Harding as Se rotary of State and thei ajso resign when Congress meets in December in order to allow Harding to start carry ‘ing ont Wis program immediately. j Tho laws regulating succession tc the President would put Harding i the President's chair if the program Was carried out and Marshall resigt ed. ‘The peopte voted against the Wa son league and for the association of nations, endorsed by (he Republicans said Bryan in an exclusive interview with the United Pross. It would seem proper therefore that the President accept that vor dict and aid in carrying it out by re signing at once. He surely will find it no pleasure in combating a Re publean Congress. It would also ena ble Vice-President for a short time, an honor which he has well earned. “Morshall then should appoint Hard ing as Seretary of State and offer his own resignation when the Congress Meets in December. ‘The laws regu lating the — succession would — then make Harding President and with a Republican Congress to support him he could carry the Republican plas of international co-operation ."" | Bryan declared that he knew nothing of any proposed conference of Demoerats to plan a new Demo cratic program. ‘There is no doubt, however, but that there will be a conference wher the Democrats ave a chance to Ko! together,” he said. The Democratic party is, and has heen, a progressive party,’ Bryan satd The San Francisco convention did not represent the rank and file o! the party. It was under a Joint cor tro which had a special interest oth er than party reform, “Phis joint control represented: things: Wirst—Tho wets who sought tc jade the Con titution and the ‘er Commandments for heer with a kick in it. | Second—Wall Street. ‘Third—tdolators and office hold hers. | Bryan, explaining why ne aid no campaign for Governor Cox, said 1 | as because Cox and Tarding ovate j the Hquor issue, CLOUSE DERPEATS HULL OPBRICIAL, COUNT SHOWS, Democratic National Committeeman for ‘Tennessee Loses to Repub- lican Opponent.
