Sedalia Weekly Conservator. Remarks gabout Uncle Dan. Rome.25. About Chele Dan D. H. Kawkins, Marshall; Mo. VOL VI Remarks gab D. H. Kawkins Uncle Dar boasts that he is the oldest man in point of service on the "Faculty" having laid brick on the main building, when it was in process of erection. He has been here so long that he has gotten to be a fixture. Generation after Generation of students have come to love him because of the faithful discharge of his duties, his unfailing kindness and deep concern in all that interest the College or student body. By his deep questions he stirred many a budding theologian to real thinking by his unfailing willingness to serve the students in any capacity. He has gotten a Temptation Of Wives. The other day a Brooklyn man a traveling salesman whose business took him to south America for half of ever year, sued his wife for a divorce because she had been faithless to him in his absence. The woman, who is still a young girl and very beautiful, did not deny her husband's charge, nor the bitter justice of the punishment that he meted out to her. She only made the pathetic plea that she was very young and that, with the craving for companionship and amusements of youth, she had not been able to endure the dreary solitude to which she was left alone in a great city. "I do not see how you can scientiously blame me for what has happened," she wrote to her husband on one of the letters introduced in the evidence against her. "You know that if it was not for your business we would be happy today. But what was I to do, left alone more than three quarters of the veir, without any children to console me? I stood it the first year, and the next, but there was a limit." As near as wrongdoing can ever be justified, this letter vindicates the poor, week, pleasure loving, lonely child wife, whose husband failed in his duty to her just as much as she failed in her duty to him. For she had not fulfilled the vow he took at the altar to protect her. He had thrown her in the midst of temptation and left her to stand or fall by her self, and this was the sin as much as hers when she lacked the strength and courage and wisdom to fight her battle alone. The story of this divorce case contains a sermon for every married man, for it brings him face to face with a husband's responsibility that he cannot shirk. --- large place in their hearts. We take it that both, old and new students alike will prize this volume because it contains his picture. The above statements have been copied from the Year Book for 1908 of the Missouri Valley College, a white institution of learning, where the Rev. D. H. Hawkins, an old friend has been employed for a number of years We congratulate brother Hawkins for his good fortune in securing the sincere esteem and confidence of those for whom he labors. Our interest in this good man is heightened, because he is a constant loyal supporter of the Conservator. He cannot ask, as Cain did, "Am I my brother's keeper?" for the answer is self-evident. Every man is his wife's keeper. When he marries he imposes his name upon the woman. He takes her away from her home and people, puts her amid surrounding that are of his selection. The figure of speech that makes us speak of the woman, who marries as giving her life and happiness into a man, keeping is no idle metaphor. It is an actual fact; and this makes the husband responsible for the kind of a woman his wife turns out to be. The law recognizes the responsibility of a man for his wifes' bills, and the higher law equally recognizes his responsibility for her morals. He is bound to look out for both, if it is in human ability to do so. There are a few married women who go wrong because they are innately vicious, but they are mighty few and far between. The majority of women that are hailed in the divorce courts for their delinquencies might justly plead, with the little Brooklyn bride, that they were driven to it by loneliness and by the neglect of their husbands. Yet, notwithstanding this, and that every man who knows the world at all has seen over and over again the acts of folly if not of actual crime committed by silly, heart-sore, vanity sore women, whose husbands have dumped them down in hotelsand boarding houses in the midst of temptations and then gone off about their own business, no man seems to realize the danger to his own in repeating this act of idiocy.— Dorothy Dix, in St. Louis Times. SEDALIA, MO., MONDAY, JULY 20, 1908. PRIMARY ELECTION Selection of Judges for Primary Election By County Committee For Recommendation To County Court. Kansas City, Mo., July 10, 1908. TO THE CHAIRMAN OF THE COUNTY COMMITTEE:--- The legislature of 1907 amended the provisions of the election law relating to the appointment of Judges of election by adding a new section. This new section reads as follows: "Section 7101a. All Judges of election appointed under the provisions of this article, shall be selected by the county court from a list of persons furnished said in form and manner following: The political party that polled the largest number of votes at the last preceding general election, and the political party that polled the next largest vote at said election, shall each, through its central committee, furnish to said county court at least fifteen days before the election, a list of names of persons qualified by law to serve as judges of election, from double the number required for judges of said election, from which said list said county court shall, at least ten days before the election herein provided for, select and appoint the number of judges required to hold said election, taking one-half of the judges appointed from each of said lists: Provided that if any party shall fail to present a list of names as a forsaid, within the time aloarse, then the said county court may select and appoint the requisite number of judges provided by law for said party." It is important that the county committee be immediately called together for the purpose of selecting the persons to be recommended to the county court for judges of election for the primary to be held on August 4th, 1908. Recommendations for judges should be filed with the court not later than the 20th day of July, 1908. Kindly acknowledge receipt of this circular so that I will know this is receiving attention. Respectfully submitted. WALTER S. DICKEY, Chairman Payiug Up The Subscriptions The newspapers are having all kinds of experiences collecting back subscription in compliance with the new rules laid down by the postoffice department. The following is recorded by a Pennsylvania Weekly: There was a man by the name of—say John Doe—who sent us three notices to stop his paper. He didn't want it any longer. We wondered what was the matter. Upon investigation we found that John was short $10. He had never paid a cent and yet he stopped his paper as a matter of economy to us. He did not want us to lose any more by him. A few days afterwards Doe was at church and his melodious voice rang out loud and clear in that old stirring hymn, "Jesus Paid It All." The next day we sent him a receipt in full, begging his pardon for not knowing that he had made an assignment of his liabilities. Local Politics.

This week we are pleased to plan before our readers some im- portant political news which we advise all to note carefully: In securing commedious rooms for headquarters in St. Louis the State Committee has acted wise- ly, And Mr, Walter S. Dickey has suggested a plan of campaign that will be a sure winner, if Lis suggestions are carried out in de- tail. LaFayette County Republicans have given us some consideration that we appreciate very highly, We carnestly desire our LaFay- ette County Republican friends to give favorable consideration to the following gentlemen, whe have announced with us: — U. Phetziag, th2 only Re publican member of the LaFay. ette County Bar, is candidate fo: Prosecutins Attorney. He is ¢ polished and refined gentleman well versed in the theory and prac tive of lave. Every elemantneed ed for aconservative prosecutor he possesses to x remarkalle de gree. Citizens of all parties, clas ses and creeds admire and respec him. If nominated, he will be sure winner. Charles A. Rex, one of the com- mon people, is a candidate for the nomination as Sheriff in the Re. publican ticket in LaFayette Co., Tae colored citizens have gt.a ie spect for him, since he has proven to them that he regards them as his peers under the laws and in business transactions. His long residence fair and honest deport- ment in private and public affairs and his congenial dispasition will make him a formidable candidate for the democrats to defeat, “Rex" is the latin word for King and Charles A, Rex has many elements of character that are truly regal. In selecting a candidate for the representative in the 7th, con- gressional district, the name of Edw. Taubman, the banker and eburchman, must not be overlook. ed, One cf the most prominent features in the present campaign will be the one involving financial and business consideration. There fore in our opinion, no one is bet- ter qualified, by age, business a- daptation and careful study, than Mr, Taubmanof Lexington, Ours isa clese district, inclined to be democratic, Hence to win, we must place before the people strong men, among whom we can count Taubman as the strongest availablo candidate, In our own beloved Pettis Co., we are delighted to speak of out representative men. A fortnight SZo, we were pleased to meet Mr. Charles W Knox, of Smithton, who aspires for the nomination ‘as Judge of the Eastern District From the consensus of opinion a mong his neighbors, we were grat. ified to learn that he is a gvod man, broad-minded, God-fearing and progressive, Asagood busi ness man, he will make an excel- lent County Court Judge, and we urge our friends to remember hin at the polls cn August the fourth because no better can be found | W. E. Houck, an aggresive es- ponent of law enforcement, ix an aspirant for the nomination as(on- stable of Sedalia township, Asa fearless advocate of what he be- lieves is right, Mr. Houck has no superiors and very few peers. By education experience and courage he is well prepared to make a good race for the office of Constable. We ask our patrons to give him a favorable consideration, RE See, Rares: Stee ee ek arene eS column you may observe the card of J. H. Kruse, who is a candi. date for the constable of Sedalia ‘township on the Republican tick- et. He is a good citizen. Mr Kruse came to Sedalia in 1872. cast his first vote here in 1873 and has been a working re- publican ever since, He was a deputy sheiff at the time W, B Conner was presiding judge and the prisoners were worned on the county roads. Mr, Krnse served as street commissioner for two years and was recently appointed sanitary officer by Mayor Babcock, He has alvays been efficient ané faithful in the discharge of bis duties, On his past record and by the earnest solicitation of his friends he asks the republican party to make him its candidate for constable of Seda!ia township. —Agents wacted to handle a high grade household specialty, needed in every home.

There is not a young mar of any degree of responsibility that would be seen walking down the street with a drunken girl, You might search the street with a finestooth comb and then not fiind the voung man who would lock arms and go promenading with a lady who was puffing a cigar or squirting tobacco juice around on the sidewalks, Girls have no hesitancy in accepting the compauy of such characters and too many of them are only to anxious to accept the companion- ship, beart and band of anything that wears pants, Society will become refined when the girls de- mund the boys who wish to pay them attention the same purity of character that the boys demand of the girls, Over the heads of young i of the lan@.baohe the! possiblities of the greatest moral reform that ever awept o- ver this country of ours, | Ex, —1 ___ THE WHITE PRESS, Atlanta Independent. gro sentiment and thought, nei- ther do they essay to concerve the best interest of the race or pro- mote its higher attainment. When ever the white press says anything complimentary of the Negro it is of an individual, and not of the race, invaribly itis of that clas¢ of iudividuals who care far more for self-aggrandisement than for manhood development. In dis- cussing Booker T. Washington this press does not refer to him as an example of the capacity and possibilty of the Negro. but as a prodigy und phenomenon, His unprecedented achievement is not heralded and advertised to the world as a stracking example of the race's developmentif the door of hope stood ajar before us, but for the selfish purpose of convin- cing us, and the world’ that aham- mer and tongs education is the only education the Negro is cap- acitated to utilize. Editorially, every white paper in the South is strenuously and uncompromisingly opposed to a free exercise of the inalienable rights of the black min Ani the press with a unanimity which bas appaled civilization, has coutribut ed more to filch from us the rights of men than any other factor. It is against the ethics of the jour- nalism to refer toa Negro woman or man aga lady or gentleman. ‘But still a majority of our leaders, land especially our preachers, support this press to the exclus- ion of their journals who support them and defend the race from the onslaught of the unfriendly foe. No self-respecting man or woman would associate with a libeller or proverter of the truth. And it is equally true of a Negro preacher or leader who will pay 5cente a day for a morbid white paper and will not pay a dollar a year for a race journal of intelligent cha. racter. We are sometimes forc- ed to agree with His Grace, the Rt. Rev. Henry T. Turner, D. D. L. L. D., that the average Negro preacher is a curse to his race; and the sooner a majority of the cringing hypocrits are dead and in Halifax, the sooner. the race will attain its highest character. The greatest factor in America for good or evil is the press. Pap- ers not only make and unmake men but they build up and destroy nations and kingdmos, and we can never attain our highest develop- ment and racial individuality, un- tilwe build up for ourselves a press, conservatiye m tone, wise 1n policy, fearlessly able to meet intelligently the charges and slan- ders of a rapid and unfriendly ad- vertisesary. A press with precoc- ity andkceness todiscern, Wise enough to take a manly position, and able to manufacture senti- ment to maintain it, All this is easily done, just give one or two Negro papers in each city the support you now give the white papers, and we will not only have journals and magazines, erudite, versatile and in trepid enough to mect every foe, but we will beable to ,ive employment to many of our girls and boys, who are now idle because of their pride, which is the natural outgrowth of their environments. The highest de- velopment, a8 well as the re- splendent virture, of the race, depends upon self-help, Wecan- not rise higher than our resources: Neither legislation by Congees or otherwise, nor the philantaropy of the North, can achieve for us that character necessary to suc- ceed.

Resultless Noise The orators in silver tones Their strident voices raise To tear to shreds some candidate And sing another's praise, But when election day appears The fellows will be heard Deciding the momentous case Who do not say a word. Upon a corner of the street The talking ones hold sway. The people listen for awhile, Then make their getaway. They might as well attempt to prove The moon is made of cheese. The voters listen to the chaff And vote just as they please. The orators are full of noise And loaded to the guards With facts that prove the rich prevail Because they stack the cards. The weary voter stands around And listens more or less. But when he comes to cast his vote He takes another guess. In a republic spouting is A portion of the scheme, It gives the persons bottled up A chance to let off steam, But noise is not the barge on which The greater numbers float. The candidate who wins is he Who has the silent vote. LEXINGTON NOTES. State B. Y. P. U. Lexington, Mo. The Tenth Annual Session of the State B. Y. P.

The State Committee has leased the entire twelfth floor of the Holland Building, Number 211 North 7th. Street, (between Pine and Olive Streets) in the City of St. Louis, for head-quarters. The rooms (formerly occupied by the Elks Club) large and commodious with plenty of light and air on all four sides, are now being prepared for occupation, and the officers of the Repnblican State Committee of Missouri will immediately move in and be ready to recieve all callers. Saturday, the 18th. day of July 1908 will be opening and visiting day at State Head-quarters, and all members of the Party, for and near, will be welcomed and made to feel at home. It would please the officers of the committee very much on that day, to see as many as possible of the present State Officers, Congressmen, State Senators, Representatives, City and County officials, and all Party men who are submitting their names to the approaching Primaries, as well as members of the State Committee, officers and members of all of the various branches of the Party Organization throughout the State; the intention being to have an old-time hand-shaking and thus start the fall work of the State Committee off with a vim Faithfully yours WALTER S. DICKEY Chairman, Republican State Committee RUSH C. LAKE Secretary, Republican State Committee Intelligently Treated By The Republican National Convention The purpose of the maximum and minimum Tarrif, proposed by the Republican platform adopted at Chicago, is to afford this country a means of retaliation against those nations that discriminate against us in their Tarrif laws. The Republican idea is that we should have two schedules, the minimum one of which should be built upon Protection lines—that is, to afford the American producer all the Protection he needs against the cheap labor and inferior products of Europe and the maximum one to be punitive in character and to be used in our dealings with those nations who discriminate against American trade. Some of our Tariff revisionists object to this dual Tariff proposition, the real occasion for their objection being their opposition to Protection. These fellows would destroy the Protection policy entirely, using the Tariff merely as a method of collecting revenue. Republicans, however, as a class are loyal to the Protection policy and insist that the minimum rate to be applied shall have due regard for the Protection of the American producer, whether he live on a farm, operate a factory, or is engaged labor for others. Under such a system it would be possible for the United States to enforce the same character of treatment against other nations that they enforce against us. The Republican platform has a very simple and satisfactory Tariff pia uk. Its pledge of revision contains no hint that the Protection policy is to be abandoned. On the other hand, it is pronounced in its statement that this policy must be kept in view in whatever revision is had. In their dealings with this country foreign governments have not abated one whit their determination to protect their own people in those lines of production in which they are engaged. The only concessions they have made are upon those articles produced in the United States and not produced in the country directly in interest ed. And is the highest class of Tariff intelligence. Under the dual Tariff proposed we might follow the same general plan. The minimum schedules would be applied in every instance and the maximum only where it is necessary to protect or defend ourselves against unfair treatment from for eign powers. The proposition one that will strongly appeal to the man who considers it from an intelligent and patriotic standpoint — St. Joseph (Mo) 'Gazette.'
