nations or states, or, at least by
towns and counties. We try to vote
in prohibition and morality and vote
out drunkenness and crime: we try
TO vote in prosperity and happiness
and vote out the hard times and suf-
fering-when the fact is. temperance
and righteousness can be established
only in the individual and prosperity
and happiness must be born in the
shop or on the farm. We may elect
presidents by ''blocks of five" but we
cannot educate the people or make
them happy in that way. The worst
result of universal suffrage is that
it promotes this false idea. Six out
of every ten Americans are practical
politicians at least for three months
out of every year. and their politics
is limited usually to national and
State affairs. The average man is
far more excited over the election of
a Congressman TO GO to Washington
to Legislature about things that only
remotely concern him than he is
about the election of Il teacher TO
train his children. National politics
is as baneful to the township and
county as it is TO the city. We want
home rule in the country as well as
in the city. In fact. the political
boss with his machine is the curse
of our entire country. Witness Ken
lucky today
My first message, then. to the
Southern farmer is, be sure you at
tend to your home and county af-
fairs. The road that passes your
gate. the school your children 90 to,
the church you attend on Sunday,
your village and its every interest,
require your earnest and conscienti-
Gus attention and support. Why
should politics influence YOU in de-
Gliding who shall survey the road or
select the teacher or keep order in
the village? And yet, eight times out
of ten. the party convention or boss
will decide your vote even in the Sc
lection of school director For your
own home interests YOU want the
best. most efficient and most faithful
person in each place. But for the
sake of helping to maintain an or
ganization which aims to elect con-
gresham once every two years. or n
Governor once in four. you will sac
rifice interests that affect the pros
perity. comfort and intellectual and
moral advancement of your family as
these officers can never do. COnSid-
er your home interests first. the in
terests of your home. church. the
school, and roads and everything that
makes the home blessed. prosperous
and happy. Consider that boy first
and the Congressman or even the
Governor last

Will send liberty and equal rights as
rapidly as they can comprehend them to
the people Of Porto Rico and to the people
OF the Philippine Islands.
IT APPLIES TO THE NEGRO.
Now cur position in regard to the ne
gro is exactly that of the Republican
party as outlined by Mr. Grosvenor in re-
gard to the Flipinos. We know the negro
is an inferior race; he holds that the Ma
lays and Chinese are inferior. We be-
leve that if by the Constitution suffrage
is extended to the negro it is also ex-
tended to the Porto Ricans and the Fill
pnos. He is willing to give the inhabi-
tants of cur colonies political rights when
they have been properly educated. while
we believe the negro should be educated
up to suffrage before the unrestricted bal
lot is placed in his hands. Where we
differ is simply in this, that Mr. Gros-
venor is willing that one inferior race
should have the ballot, but the other
should not, while we think the same con-
ditons should apply equally to all Sub
stitute the word negro for Malays and
Chinese in Mr.. Grosvenor's remarks and
you would fancy you were reading the
speech Of a hot blooded Southerner on
negro domination"
THE VIRGINIA TEST
1t is because Of the interest in this
general subject that the coming poll in
Virginia the latter part of the month on
the question of Constitutional Conven-
tiCn is attracting so much attention at
the Capitol. 1t is felt that if the conven
ton is held and a new Constitution is
adopted some reasonable method will be
found for disqualifying at least a large
percentage of the illiterate coored vote
and that ether Southern States will follow
the lead of the Old Dominion-Mississip-
pi Louisiana and South Carolina. The
threats of curtailing the representation
of the South in the Electoral College and
in the lower branch Of Congress it is as
serted will be Of no effect. 1t is thought
doubtful whether there would be any serl-
Gus attempts to carry out such threats.
Even If so Southern members do not
hesitate to say it is Of much more ac-
count to them TO have local government
under which they can live with peace and
security.

A Tribute to Mary Duke.

The following tribute to Mr..
Dukes only daughter is by Rev.
DR.. Yates. His intimate acquaint.
ance with her has enabled him to
truthfully deliniate her virtues:
His only daughter, Mary, was
a small girl when her mother
died, and at the age OF y years,
after her fathers return at the
close of the war, took charge of
his house and became the house.
keeper. She soon developed every
trait Of character that qualified
her for the position. Economical,
industrious and wise, she became
the power behind the the throne,
and her advice aud counsel helped
on the success Of her father and
brothers, which, in a few years,
became conspicuous and phenom-
email. AT the age OF Is, she mar
