New York.—The loss of his left arm and left leg did not prevent Ludger Gagne, Jr., of 20 Wesland avenue, Boston, from being an expert swimmer or from saving Miss Louise King of 25 Salem street, Winchester, Mass., from drowning at Revere Beach last summer and eventually winning her for his bride. When twelve years old, just half his present age, Gagne's swimming and diving records were considered marvelous. Then he fell beneath the wheels of a train and lost a leg and an arm. After his wounds had healed and although Boston harbor was full of whitecaps and storm signals were set he swam without trouble to Boston light, six miles out. Gagne was talking to a life guard at Revere Beach last summer when cries for help came from the water. A girl was struggling a considerable distance from shore. Gagne reached the girl first. She was Miss King. Gagne and Miss King became engaged. Her parents favored the match, but advised the young couple to wait until Louise was twenty-one. They vetoed the suggestion, however, and were married by Deputy City Clerk Cruise in the municipal building chapel, this city. NEBRASKA'S CONVIGTS MAY GO TO THE FRONT They Are to Be Drilled In Tactics by the Warden In the State Penitentiary. Lincoln, Neb.-The state penitentiary is to be turned into a military garrison for a part of each day, and the state's prisoners will become soldiers if necessary. Warden Fenton has decided on military drill for practically all the convicts as soon as sham wooden guns can be made. Prison Secretary O'Connell, a member of the First Nebraska regiment in the Spanish-American war, will be drillmaster in chief. Should the war with Germany reach such a stage as to become a drain on the citizens of the country Warden Fenton believes the younger prison inmates may be called to the front. He says is adopting the military drill as one of preparedness. The warden will himself take the training with his charges, and if the convicts are summoned to war he will offer his services. He is popular with the men, and they say they would want no better leader. Many have expressed their eagerness to enlist—three-quarters of them—the prison authorities say. There are about twenty former soldiers and sailors in the prison, and these are expected to act as aids to Secretary O'Connell in teaching the war game. The warden says he will see to it that the men lack nothing in knowledge. He has issued a call to the three cooks in the prison that they show their patriotism by complying with the request of President Wilson with respect to wasting of food. The penitentiary farm is to be enlarged materially. HOARDING IS UNPATRIOTIC. Boston Man Says Those Who Lay Up Food Are Traitors. Boston.—Henry B. Endicott, executive manager of the Massachusetts committee on public safety, issued a statement asserting that the person who hoarded money and large quantities of provisions for an indefinite period "should be pointed out as a traitor to his country and to his fellow men." "Certainly nothing could be further from patriotism or helpfulness to other people," he said, "than for a set of men who have money and credit to selfishly purchase an unusual amount of supplies for themselves and by so doing inflict upon their less wealthy neighbors the burden of unnecessarily high prices." Durham, N. C. — Vegetable gardens bordering the railroad tracks is a new idea in North Carolina to add to America's food supply in the world war. The Durham and Southern railway, owned principally by the Dukes, wealthy New York tobaccoists, has offered its right of way for planting. It has furthermore offered free seed to encourage the growers. ++++++++++++++++++++ VOL: 33. NO 42 TO STOP WASTE IN ARMY CAMPS War Department Prepares Plans to Enforce the Most Rigid Economy. SOME USE .FOR EVERYTHING Effect of New Plan Is to Turn Into Large Profit What Hitherto Has Been a Very Considerable Expense. Washington.—The war department has taken elaborate and comprehensive precautions to prevent waste in the army cantonments, which will soon contain more than 2,000,000 men, and in the embarkation camps. In the feeding of the mep waste will be minimized through the fact that the food will be prepared under the direction of mess cooks, who will be trained by special courses in army cooking schools. The officers' training camps have not been under the control of the war department so far as the food supplies are concerned, and the waste in those camps has been due to the lack of skilled management in the handling of food. A committee representing the war department and the United States food administration will also assist in dealing with problems of eliminating waste. The food administration has received from the secretary of war an announcement of a thorough-going plan for conserving all the waste material of the National army camps, which will result in salvaging many thousands of dollars. Collecting the Waste. The army's first consideration in planning this work has been the sanitary and hygienic problem. At each cantonment the wastes will be collected and transported to a single "transfer station" under the direction of the sanitary inspector. Through the use of the two-can system, wastes will be tightly enclosed throughout their collection. Sterilized cans will be substituted for the filled cans at the kitchens, the nulsance of disagreeable odors and danger from files being reduced to a minimum. Every step in the process of recclamation and utilization is carefully safeguarded and is under the absolute direction of a sanitary force, each contractor being placed under heavy bonds. At the transfer station, the wastes are turned over to a contractor, who will remove them to a point at least three miles distant from the reservation. There the wastes will be completely sorted. Bottles will be sterilized and sold for commercial use. Tin cans will be baled and the solder, tin and iron reclaimed. Paper, which is estimated about five tons per day, will be baled. Bones will be kept separate and ground for fertilizer. The hides of dead animals will be removed and the carcasses "reduced" for grease and fertilizer. The chief items of waste will be the garbage and the manure. It is estimated that there are 1,200 animals at each cantonment, producing 120 tons of manure per day. At the date of the report the manure from 11 cantonments had been sold for $240,900 annually. Big Saving Through Garbage. The greatest element of saving is through the garbage. This has been sold for an annual price of $446,394.57. The garbage from 13 of the cantonments will be used for feeding swine. It is estimated on the basis of experiments conducted at the Chillicothe cantonment, that the garbage waste from 10 to 15 men will feed one hog and enable it to add to its weight one pound per day. At this rate, the garbage from these 13 cantonments will produce 18,980,000 pounds of pork per year. When not used for feeding, the garbage will be "reduced," that is, cooked at high temperature, the grease extracted, and the remainder ground and used for fertilizer or feeds. By the method of incineration formerly in use, not only would all these valuable waste materials have been destroyed, but it would have cost approximately $700,000 for the installation of incinerator plants and an annual charge of approximately $553,000 for their operation. When we add to this saving the amount annually received by the government from these wastes, the net saving the first year amounts to $1,707,840. The effect of this new plan, therefore, is not only to conserve large quantities of valuable food wastes, fertilizers, etc., but to turn into a large profit what has hitherto been a very considerable expense. Germans Deceive Chinese New York—German propagandists kept the Chinese from knowing the truth about the war for more than a year, said Dr. J. Preston Maxwell, head of the Yungchun Hospital of the English Presbyterian church, Amoy. "They were told that Paris had fallen," he said, "and that England had been invaded by a great army which had London in its grasp. "The climax was the announcement of the German peace terms. Over night the walls of many places were placarded with these terms printed in Chinese characters. They were certainly wonderful terms with Germany getting all the best of it" Food Grown Along Railroads FINDS WEDDING RING LOST FOR SEVEN YEARS Wilmington, Del. — It is not only the proverbial bad penny that frequently turns up, as is proved by the case of a long lost wedding ring. Seven years ago Mrs. Frank Carey of 1802 Gilpin avenue lost her wedding ring in the yard of the house in which she was then living. Recently it was returned to her by the present occupant of the house, who discovered it while planting flowers. ST. PAUL AND MINNEAPOLIS, MINN., SATURDAY, OCTOBER 20, 1917. HOW SHALL WE PAY FOR THE WAR? A Constructive Criticism on the House Revenue Bill. LOANS BETTER THAN TAXES Five Reasons Why Excessive Taxes at the Outset of War Are Disadvantageous—Great Britain Example Worthy of Emulation—How the Taxes Should Be Apportioned. By EDWIN R. A. SELIGMAN, McVickar Professor of Political Economy, Columbia University. On May 23, 1917, the House of Representatives passed an act "to provide revenue to defray war expenses and for other purposes." In the original bill as presented by the Committee of Ways and Means, the additional revenue to be derived was estimated at $1,810,420,000. The amendment to the income tax, which was tacked on to the bill during the discussion in the House, was expected to yield another $40,000,000 or $50,000,000. In discussing the House bill, two problems arise: 1. How much should be raised by taxation? II. In what manner should this sum be raised? I. How Much Should Be Raised by Taxation? How was the figure of $1,800,000,000 arrived at? The answer is simple. When the Secretary of the Treasury came to estimate the additional war expenses for the year 1917-18, he calculated that they would amount to some $6,600,000,000, of which $3,000,000,000 was to be allotted to the allies, and $3,600,000,000 was to be utilized for the domestic purposes. Thinking that it would be a fair proposition to divide this latter sum between loans and taxes, he concluded that the amount to be raised by taxes was $1,800,000,000. There are two extreme theories, each of which may be dismissed with acent courtesy. The one is that all war expenditures should be defrayed by loans, and the other is that all war expenditures should be defrayed by taxes. Each theory is untenable. It is indeed true that the burdens of the war should be borne by the present rather than the future generation; but this does not mean that they should be borne by this year's taxation. Meeting all war expenses by taxation makes the taxpayers in one or two years bear the burden of benefits that ought to be distributed at least over a decade within the same generation. In the second place, when expenditures approach the gigantic sums of present-day warfare, the tax-only policy would require more than the total surplus of social income. Were this absolutely necessary, the ensuing havoc in the economic life of the community would have to be endured. But where the disasters are so great and at the same time so unnecessary, the tax-only policy may be declared impracticable. Secretary McAdoo had the right instinct and highly commendable courage in deciding that a substantial portion, at least, of the revenues should be derived from taxation. But when he hit upon the plan of 50-50 per cent., that is, of raising one-half of all domestic war expenditures by taxes, the question arises whether he did not go too far. The relative proportion of loans to taxes is after all a purely business proposition. Not to rely to a large extent on loans at the outset of a war is a mistake. Disadvantages of Excessive Taxes. The disadvantages of excessive taxes at the outset of the war are as follows: 1. Excessive taxes on consumption will cause popular resentment. 2. Excessive taxes on industry will disarrange business, damp enthusiasm and restrict the spirit of enterprise at the very time when the opposite is needed. 3. Excessive taxes on incomes will deplete the surplus available for investments and interfere with the placing of the enormous loans which will be necessary in any event. 4. Excessive taxes on wealth will cause a serious diminution of the incomes which are at present largely drawn upon for the support of educational and philanthropic enterprises. Moreover, these sources of support would be dried up precisely at the time when the need would be greatest. 5. Excessive taxation at the outset of the war will reduce the elasticity available for the increasing demands that are soon to come. Great Britain's Policy. Take Great Britain as an example. During the first year of the war she increased taxes only slightly, in order to keep industries going at top notch. During the second year she raised by new taxes only 9 per cent. of her war expenditures. During the third year she levied by additional taxes (over and above the pre-war level) only slightly more than 17 per cent. of her war expenses. If we should attempt to do as much in the first year of the war as Great Britain did in the third year it would suffice to raise by taxation $1,250,000.00. If, in order to be absolutely on the safe side, it seemed advisable to increase the sum to $1,500,000,000; this should, in our opinion, be the maximum. Defective Page RABBIT SAUSAGE IS LATEST Farmere' Wives in Oklahoma Are Advised to Turn Pest to Good Use. Oklahoma City, Okla—Jack rabbit sausage will be a new delicacy in Oklahoma as a result of the war. In fact a few farmers in the western part of the state last winter found a substitute as palatable as the real article. At a meeting of farmers' wives in Kloka county, Mrs. Ida Gregory, country woman agent, discused the efficacy of canning soy beans. One woman suggested that the beans were hard to raise owing to the raids of rabbits. This objection was quickly discounted by another woman, who exclaimed: "Keep the rabbits away until your beans are a foot high; then get a shotgun and let them come. Last year we had jack rabbit sausage the season through. By mixing a bit of pork the sausage really is better than that made entirely from pork." STEAL MORE CHINESE SEALS Prominent Official of the Republic Disappears With the Presidential Stamp. Peking.—Peking is much agitated over the disappearance of official seals. When President Li Yuan-hung was forced to give up the presidency, Gen-Ting-Kwan, the keeper of the presidential seals, took them to Shanghai. Another prominent official has now disappeared with the seals of the house of representatives. When the attempt at monarchial restoration had been defeated and Premier Tuan Chijul declared the republic had been restored, there was much consternation because of the disappearance of the seals of the republic. Gen. Ting Kwan was arrested in Shanghai, and after a hard legal struggle was brought back to Peking, together with the missing presidential seals, and is to have a hearing before a Chinese court. SCORNED, MAKES SPY CHARGE Widow Proves Undoing of Kampman, Formerly in German Consulate in Chicago. Los Angeles.—A scorned woman and an elderly one at that—proved the undoing of Dr. Maximillian Kampman, aged only twenty-eight, formerly of the German consulate in Chicago, who was arrested here on a presidential warrant as a German spy. At least go declared Dr. A. S. Ash of Los Angeles. "A year and a half ago Doctor Kampman was treating a widow," said Doctor Ash. "He took a great deal of interest in trying to restore her health—so much so that it seemed she became infatuated with him. He tried to wave her aside, but in vain." WORKS FOR LIBERTY LOAN Copyright. Underwood & Underwood A striking example of the value of women in helping America in the great fight is Miss Antoinette Funk, a member of the woman's committee of the council of national defense. The photograph shows her hard at work in her office in the treasury building where she is doing wonderful work in the interests of the Liberty loan. She is executive vice-chairman of the women's Liberty loan committee, of which Mrs. McAdoo is the chairman. She was asked to take the post by Secretary McAdoo because of her powers of logical appeal, her ability as a speaker and her uniting activity in any work connected with the great cause for which America is fighting.

SATURDAY, OCTOBER 20, 1917 WAR SAVINGS CERTIFICATES The new war savings certificates will bear 4 per cent interest, will run for a term of five years and will be issued in denominations as low as $5. They are to be just what their names indicate, "savings" certificates, a means of investment for small savings, so that the money will be safe and profitable and at the same time affording the government the use of it. It is planned to sell the certificates to the public on the installment plan by using stamps that may be purchased and pasted in a book for that purpose. When there are sufficient stamps to cover the cost of a certificate the book can be exchanged for one. The stamps will be placed on sale in every town and city in the country. The individual who has money laid by for a rainy day need have no hesitation in converting it into war savings certificates, since the government will redeem them at any time upon the request of the holder, allowing interest at 4 per cent. Under this arrangement the investor in these certificates will have the satisfaction of knowing that if any emergency should arise in his family, such as sickness or death, he could immediately realize upon his certificates. It is a safe prediction that the war savings certificates will go like "not cakes." Their small denomination, the good interest rate, the terms upon which they may be purchased, the fact that they are not subject to taxation when held by persons of small means—all will make them an attractive investment. Working people whose margin of income above expenses is narrow at best will find in them an excellent incentive for beginning the prudent habit of saving. They will be popular for Christmas presents. School children will be able to invest part of their little weekly allowances in certificates. As a result many millions will be transferred to the Federal Treasury and through it will flow into the channels of trade, while the people of small means will be made to feel that they, too, are doing their share toward helping their country win the war. CONVERTING THE ESKIMO. CONVERTING THE ESKIMO. Christian missionaries seem to have made little headway in converting the Eskimo in the far north, according to Donald B. MacMillan, head of the THE MAN WHO DARES I honor the man entious discharge o stand alone; the w intolerant judgmen the countenances o averted, and the he cold, but the senses be sweeter than the world, the counten- the hearts of friends I honor the man who in the conscientious discharge of his duty dares to stand alone; the world, with ignorant, intolerant judgment, may condemn, the countenances of relatives may be averted, and the hearts of friends grow cold, but the sense of duty done shall be sweeter than the applause of the world, the countenances of relatives or the hearts of friends.—Charles Sumner. Crookerland expedition, who has recently returned to New York, after four years in the Arctic. Contact Mr. McMillan was in daily contact with the Eskimos. He finds them lovable and easily managed. The members of the expedition trusted, implicitly the little colony of six families at Eta, base of the expedition, on the northeast shore of Greenland, and never suffered a loss by theft. Yet the same understanding of the Eskimo character has made Mr. McMillan skeptical as to the power of mission ary work to better their social standards. "I don't believe the missionaries will be able to change the social customs of the Eskimos very greatly. They are a happy, care-free, jovial people. They are continually laughing. If they see a man in serious thought for more than a few minutes at a time they think something is wrong with him. And, really, they have all the necessary virtues right now. They love each other, they care for each other's welfare, and they protect each other. If one is hungry all are hungry. They have a perfect socialism. "And they are absolutely honest. Our supplies at Eta lay on the ground in plain view of every one in the settlement for four years, and no one over touched them without permission. In New York after dark they wouldn't remain four minutes before being stolen. "Piblocktoo" is the word that expresses what the Eskimos think of the world at war, Mr. MacMillan said. It means "run amuck; gone clean crazy." The Eskimos believe that all the white man nations have gone "piblocktoo." "I tried to explain," Mr. MacMillan said, "that the war started because Germany wanted to acquire more land, but they wouldn't believe it; they only shook their heads and said: No; that's impossible. There is plenty of land for everybody." When we were getting ready to leave Eta they begged us to remain with them. "Why go back there?"—meaning civilization—the asked us, "where everyone is piblocktoo? Stay here with us and be happy." THE APPEAL believes that the missionaries who are trying to "convert" the Eskimos are "piblocko," especially those from the United States, who are trying to impose the American brand of jimcrow Christianity on them. If they have all of the necessary virtues right now, why waste time and money teaching them the murderous Christianity of America? The latest jimcrow idea is segregation in the galleries of the Capitol at Washington. It is almost unbelievable that such a condition could exist, yet reports from Washington say that American citizens who desire to listen to the deliberations of the law makers of a democracy are separated on the basis of color. --- In a recent speech ex-Senator Elihu Root said: "America's great opportunity was slipping away, but at the eleventh hour we grasped it and found opportunity to restore ourselves, Through it we shall find our national soul and I have faith in God's people, for they are the earth's democracies." The New York mayor's committee for National Defense will start a campaign this Fall for the Americanization of the foreign-speaking people of the city. The slogan is to be: "One city, one loyalty, one people." "The melting pot must be made to melt," said committee members.

The colored man has a large part in raising cotton in the South. More than one-third of the cotton farms are cultivated by colored men, either as owner or tenant. Segregation ran up against segregation when the white residents of McCulloch street in Baltimore objected to the proposed jimrow Y. M. C. A. building being erected in their street. It seems that the suffrage pickets in Washington have won President Wilson, Secretary of Treasury McAdoo and Secretary Tumulty. It is said that all will work from now on for suffrage for women. More than 7,000 colored men, women and children marched through the principal streets of Newark, New Jersey, recently in a silent protest against the wrongs, injustices and gallice race prejudice now so rampant in the United States. Federal Judge Oscar A. Tripp is deep in a study to determine whether a Hindu is a white man or a black man or neither. Diwan Singh wishes to become a citizen of the United States and the laws it is claimed limit citizenship to aliens of either the Caucasian or African races. The members of the Eighth Illinois Infantry, the only regiment of colored men with colored officers, contributed $92,150 to the Camp Logan Liberty Loan Fund making them stand second in that division. Col. Denison promises that his regiment will raise $115,000. How is that for loyalty? The National Woman's Party which has picketed the White House during the recent session of Congress will "shadow" every Congressman about to start on speaking tours of their home districts and will speak from same platform in favor of woman's suffrage. Here's a hint for the colored people to make known the many wrongs under which they are crushed and humiliated. Uncomplimentary references to Irishman in an edition of "Illinois in 1818," recently published in an edition de luxe for circulation among state officials, libraries and universities, has aroused opposition and criticism on the part of many Irishman, because of the following paragraph: "Not a few drunken profane, worthless Irishmen were peramubulating the country and getting up schools; and yet they could neither speak, read, pronounce, spell nor write the English language." Some of the prominent Irishmen of Illinois took up the matter and the offensive paragraph was removed before the book was put on the market. COLORED DIVISION Of Soldiers in the New National Army, Washington, D.

Only Colored to Labor Army orders today authorized immediate organization of 24 labor companies by voluntary enrollment of their mobilization, or, if audited, not obtained in this way, by voluntary enlistment of colored men—no white men to be enlisted in labor companies.

Houston, Texas—Lee Sparks, the Houston police officer whose alleged assault on Sergt Baltimore, a colored trooper of the Twenty-fourth infantry, is said to have preceded the riot of three troopers on August 23, in which seventeen persons were killed and twenty-two wounded, has been indicted by the Harris county grand jury on two charges. One indictment charges him with aggravated assault on Sergt Baltimore. The second charges him murder in conjunction with the death of Wallace Williams, a colored civilian who was shot to death on the Sunday following the riot. COLORED TROOPS Baker Says They Will Be Trained in States Where Raised. Washington, D. C.—Secretary Baker of the war department has announced that colored troops drafted into the United States army will receive the same consideration and treatment before given them under the rules that the Army has set for colored troops drafted in states having canteen their own will be trained in them, which means that the Illinois contingent of colored troops will train at Rockford. Units from other states are assigned and trained with their state troops as separate organizations, the same as is now done in the regular army. Will Be Called Separately. "The rule of the regular army in the matter of the training of the colored troops as separate organizations will be postponed until the call for colored men will be postponed until one of the latter calls, so that they are called at a separate time, thereby giving officers at the camps to assemble the organizations of which they are parts substantially at all one time. They will be called separately, but they will be called separately. May Volunteer for France. "All colored men called in a state which has a cantonment in it will be organized and train there. Provision made for the assembling of colored men in those states which have no cantonments, that no man been made. An opportunity will be given to both white and colored men among the selected forces to volunteer for service and training in certain organization organizations, which is necessary, hoped that an adequate number will volunteer for this military but non-combatant service, but there will be both combatant and noncombatant organizations, just as there are white organizations. Those who volunteer for this service, it is said, will have an early opportunity to go to France." Why Did They Prefer "Colored?" (From the New York News.) Worse to Ask for Jim Crow. We agree with the editor of the N. Y. News: It is bad enough to have segregated (or "ifm crow") military training camps FORCED on us by the government, but infinitely worse to ASK for them.

(From the Amsterdam News.) Editor Amsterdam News: Sir: I cannot too heartily congratulate you on a recent editorial discouraging the use of the word "Negro." There is no greater delight enjoyed by the people of the United States today than to unfortunate term. Why? They realize that it is the most potential factor at work at the present to bring about both a physical and mental use of the people of color; its use is on the increase in the speakers and writers, especially Do Bois and Washington feel that its repetition, ad nausea, is necessary to good will of the masses. The term "Negro" is not inaccurate as applied to millions of colored people, but it is also alarmingly injurious, for the following reasons: It has never stood historically or in the present, anywhere in the world, for anything noble or uplifting. Most high-grade Africans repudiate it. b. in Africa and out of Africa it was no longer to the higher types, but to Guinea, Sudanese and Sengambians only. c. its derivatives, "Negroism," "Negrofy," and its compounds, Negrofly, Negrofy, Negro-monkey, are all clearly, in their associations, degrading. d. Its feminine form, "Negress," is justly and correctly used to define your wife and daughter and sweetheart, who favor the use of the masculine term. e. It has been the word used by the Southern whites for two centuries, when formally speaking or writing about an unworthy or criminal man against the race. For when he speaks of the worthy he invariably says "colored." f. It is not differentiated in the mind and thought of the whites from their favorite and generally used (themselves) terms, "Nigro" and "Nigge." g. As stated by an eminent Japanese diplomat it has an unquestioned influence in cutting us out from the thought, sympathy and co-operation of millions of colored Africans, Asiatics and Islanders of the Yonder world. Very truly yours, OWEN M. WALLER, M. D. Hates the Term "Negro." "I hate the term Negro because it is being used in terms of hatred. It is the cause of the segregation of the Negro in the United States in public places; it is an excuse for disfranchising him; and it is an excuse for lynching him. Only one person of the colored people in America can be descent to Africa, and there is no more right to call all colored people Negroes to to call all white people American to Ex-Assistant United States Administration. Wm H. Lewis, Boston, Mass. Must Judge A Group by Its Best No one can be said to know any class of people who has not been in intimate and sympathetic relation with the best as well as the worst of the men. We compare many persons who live in the South, and think they know the color of people and those others who have had no such contact, who have come into intimate and sympathetic relations with large numbers of that race whom their Southern friends have never known; and of the other people we should ask that the second group of people be better than the first. They have relations among them that the others do not know, or, knowing, do not enter into and appreciate; they know capabilities by direct contact with the other people which others are obliged of; they know respect and sympathy can bring out; they know possibilities to which others by their very acquaintance are blinded. If those who know the colored race through the mass and the individual possibilities could know what individual possibilities are stated in growing numbers of the elect, and would be courageously candid with themselves, they would revise their judgments and possibly soften their prejudices. At any rate, they could credit to those on whom they charge their influence race the values that come from knowing how many of that race are the GOD GIVE US MEN. God give us men!

I do not propose to be cooped up or shut in in my love and criticism to mere geographical places. I apologize people on a planet. This place is mine as it is, when one considers the height and depth—the starry height and depth—of the human spirit that Warner and Shakespeare, Toledo and Mollerre. Though the cathedrals quarrel together and sing praises with sage-guns to their own little foothold and bombs on each other's naves, I love by the great bells ringing in their towers, by the souls of their poets overriding the years, by the praysers and sons of their heroes, artists, by the mothers and the little children. We are all in the same world. We are all alike. I will not say of any others; and will not say of the others; and will not say of my man what I will not say of myself. Agreed to Be "Set Aalde." (From the Eagle, Washington, D. C.) No, the colored delegates to the M. E. General Conference, held at Sarasota, Fla., recently, did not "walk out." They are now arranged to be "set aside"—to be segregated into a "colored general conference, to be presided over by a member, being denied the privilege of directorship, to the Master's vineyard. Two years from now the two wings of the M. E. church, North and South, will unite in separation of the colored members of the college, refusing to honor the 350,000 colored militants are designed to clear the way for the approaching "love feast." No parity in the assertion that, in its principal assertions, the church is a social organization, with religion as a by-product.
