BOOKER WASHINGTON
Says Education Is the Way to Stop
 Lynchng.

Boston, November 23.-Booker Washing ton said last night regarding the recent lynching of negro In Colorado: "The same class of people who begin to break the law by lynching negro will soon begin to break the law by lynching a white man."
 'I think" said Washington, that the Colorado lynching emphasizes the fact that the only way to stop such outbreaks is in the first place to bring about such general education, not only in books, but in indus try and thrift as will make such acts IS that which provoked the lynchers fewer, and then to educate public sentiment up to the point where people in all parts of the country will see that we can only have the highest civilization, if the law is enforced, regardless of race or color.
 Wherever people begin to lynch for one kind of offense they are soon led into the temptation of lynching for other kinds of offense.
 Aside from the injustice that is perpe- trated upon the individual put to death' without legal trial, we must bear in mind that there is a permanent degradation which comes to the individual who takes part in and witnesses such an outrage as occurred in Colorado"

GOODBYE.

Philip Bourke Marston. Goodbye, good-bye! It is the sweetest
 blessing
 That falls from mortal lips on mortal The weakness of our human love confess

 May God be with you! Why do we say it when the tears are start

 Why must a word so sweet bring only

 And then we feel 1t impotent and vain
 May God be with you! Oh! may He guide and bless and keep you He who is strong to battle with your Whoever fails, His love can fail you never, And all your need He in His wisdom

 And from our sorrows heavenly com forts spring, If God be with us! Goodbye, goodbye! -,h latest breath wa

Governor IOhnston's Veto Message.

Governor Johnstons veto of the guberna- torial succession bill need not disturb any one, for it has neither good law nor good policy behind it. The bill in question is merely explanatory of the clause, "or other disability" in the fifteenth section of article five of the constitution. It explains disability"
 Tt is hardly to be presumed" says Gov ernor Johnston. that the framers of the constitution failed to provide for some one to exercise the power and discharge the duties of Governor in case of a vacancy in that office from any cause whatever" This position is eminenty correct; they did so provide particularly in the phase, "or other disability" And they provided that the peo- ples choice, instead of an unauthorized hold-over, should fill the office, and the gu- berna torlal succession bill. which Governor Johnston has gone out of his way to veto, makes this provision so plain that he who runs may read.
 Governor Johnston very carefully refr1ins from discussing the pharse, Cor other dis ability" It is the rock he goes down on and he should not as human nature is consti- tuted, be expected to discuss it. He fioun- ders along discussing other features of the fifteenth section but he shuns the words, "or other disability" as he would fire. He should not be blamed for this, for the words in question destroy hIs fictitious case, and are the cause of his undoing.
 Governor Johnstons irregular eXtra-ju- dicial court, and his proposition for an inn mediate and extra constitutional election are merely grandstand plays and need not be considered. The Will of the People will be obeyed. If William J. Sanford be alive on December he will by order of the peo- pie become Governor; and If he be not, then William D. Jelks, by order of the peo- pie, constitutionally acting through con- stitutional representatives freshly and con- stitutonally chosen, will become Governor and that is all there is of this matter.

wage reduction in New England cotton
mills is contemplated. The report could

is under consideration in Fall River,
but as yet no decision has been posi-
lively announced, though mills repre-
senting 100000 spindles have agreed

reduced in that city, it is thought many
manufacturers elsewhere may take up
the wage question, but as far as can be
learned here, no action has yet been de-
rided upor.

There is no longer doubt in Europe
of the primacy of American athletes.
The victorious course of our amateur
athletes in the worlds championship
games at Paris affords ample proof
of their superiority. The margin Of
advantage was so considerable, more
over, that there was no room for a
claim that at another meeting less IA
yorable results might be attained. 1t
is fair to assume, accordingly, that the
American race is physically stronger
than the Old World stock from which
it sprang-no slight advantage in these
days of strenuous and unremitting per-
sonal endeavor.
