that Bryan has abandoned the states
which were for . long time known as
the silver states. This is very un-

able to force his 16-to-l in the Demo-

AHARDsHIP ON VOTERS.

There IS some complaint by Democratic
voters of the action q the State Demo-
cratic Executive Committee requiring reg
istration in 1900 as a qualification for vot-
ing at the primary to be held on May
15 This requirement is hardship on
voters who live at a distance from the
county seats of their respective countles-
The committee, however, is not TO blame
for it, The law requires registration
The committee simply stated the require
ment of the law II could have fixed a
later day for the primary, but that would
not have been of much benefit to voters
1t is true, probably, that farmers have
a little more leisure in the summer than
in the spring. but the committee doubt
less had very good reasons for fixing May
IS as the date of the primary.
The only way to avoid the hardship
complained of is TO so change the law
as to permit of the opening of registra-
ton books, for a few days prior to an
election, in different parts of each of the
counties If that were done many citi-
zens who do not now vote at all would
register and vote. II is certain that
comparatively small percentage of those
who live a long distance from the places
of registration will incur the expense and
go to the trouble of registering, especially
for a primary election.
The election laws ought to be so amend
ed as to make voting less a hardship on
the rural voters day for registering,
a day for voting at the primary and
day for voting al the regular election are
more days than the average citizen is
willing to give to political matters. And
yet, it is important that citizens should
be encouraged to take an interest in pol
itics. BY neglecting to vote they open
the way for ring rule, which means high
taxes and inefficient public servants.

4 GREEN puCHEss.

Heretofore Mrs. Hetty Green of New
York has been known to the people of
this codrltry chiefly because Of her wealth,
her penuriousness and her contempt for
Joseph Fl. Choate, now the American Am
bassador to England The newspapers Of
New York never weary of telling of how
Mrs. Green lives in a $15 fiat and moves
her residence on an average of once a
month, to escape the tax collectors; how
she takes free lunches in the bank of
which she is a large stockholGer, 10 save
the expense of dinner, and how she
loans millions to prominent men and cor
porations that are hard up, taking gilt
edge security and eXacting robust rate
of interest Mrs. Green, in short is the
feminine Russell Sage of New York, and
If all of the stories that have been printed
about her "closeness' during the past ten
years were pasted together they would
make a string that would surround
Greater New York.
But, according to reports, Mrs. Green is
about to acquire, with or without her con-
nivance a new distinction, which may in
deed carry her to the front ranks of New
York swell society. 1t is reported that she
is to become the mother-in-law of
a duke-a real duke. from Europe, with
title as long as ones arm and lineage
that runs back to the primordial pro-
toplasm. The duke hasn't much else be-
sides his title and his lineage, but other
American heiresses have married dukes in
no better circumstances, and have been
transported in consequence into the Ely
sian fields of select society by 50 doing;
hence why should not Mrs. Green's daugh-
ter do so likewise? She is somewhat the
rise of 80 years old-old enough to know
her own mind; and she has 100000 in her
own right settled on her some time ago
by her mother who had got tired of
having her children come to her every
day for car fare and lunch money. Miss
Green Sylvia by name), is remembered
by New Workers as a rather plain-looking,
specialized young woman who used to be
a frequent witness in the lawsuits insti-
tuted by or brought against her mother.
Recently, however, it is said, she has be-
come more of a devotee of fashion, and
is frequently seen at the Waldorf-Astoria
i'm company with the Count De La Tore
of Spain, whom rumor says is to become
her husband and accompanied by a
chaperon who was formerly a protege of
Mrs. Paran Stevens. AS the millionaire
molher-in-iaw of the Duke De La Tore
and the mother of a railway magnate of
Texas, Mrs. Hetty Green ought 10 have
little difficulty in becoming a social light
in Gotham, if she has a mind in that
direction.

THE PLACE FOR THE NEGRO.

In his testimony before the United States
Industrial Commission on Tuesday Gov
Gambler said that he thought the place
for the negro was the farm. In the opin-
ion of the Governor he is more useful
there than in any other place
The inference from this is that the Gov
ernor does not think che negro would be
a success in the cotton mill or the ma
chine shop. He makes a good laborer in
coal and iron mines and probably in iron
and steel mills, and he is a competent me-
chanic, but it is certainly that he is bet
ter off on the farm chan elsewhere.
But how is he to be kept on the farm 9?
The tendency of both the whites and
blacks is towards the towns. The cotton
mills have no trouble in getting all the
white operatives they want and they
draw them from the farms.
The truth is life in the country is bare
and lonely. There are comparatively few
schools and churches in the remote dis
tricts and organized societies for the pro
motion of social Intercourse are almost
unknown. There is nothing to look for
ward to when the days work is done and
Sundays and holidays offer little that sat
isles the craving for social pleasures.
1t is probable that che negro would be
more willing 10 remain on the farm if
there were more in rural communities 10
satisfy the social side of his nature. If
the leaders of his race were to busy them
selves in organizing societies there such
as exist in the towns-church societies,
ph IA
amusement-they would render him a
great and appreciated service There is
no doubt that the negro is far better off
in the country than in che towns. He is
healthier and freer from vice, and if in
dustrious can live better. He wants TO
get to the towns because of the lack of
ways in the country 10 satisfy the social
side of his nature.
How 10 bring a bout a condition thar
would make him satisfied with the farm
is a problem that is yet to be solved. II
ought TO be studied by the teachers of
his race. He is here to stay, and is an in
creasing source of trouble. If the coun-
Try were made more attractive to him. it
is probable that in the course of dine he
would become more thrifty. The way is
open 40 him to become a farmer and land
owner. There are some negro farmers
now. The number, however, Is small But
as a farm laborer his condition is better
than as laborer in the towns. where. as
a rule, he disregards all sanitary rules
and his standard of morals is low. The
Industrial Commission might render the
| country a service by giving the negro
| question thorough study while pursu-
ing its Investigation in the South.
