He did not err IN the exhibit of his
political resources. His letter, in this
respect, was the frank declaration Of
a man who knew his place, and who
wished to show that there we're plenty
of friends who were in sympathy with
his contention He knew that inderse-

card in a live newspaper would solve

to stir up further friction between the
races, but the facts may as we'll be ad-

peace when there is no peace. It is
worthy of note, however, that the ''good

were the competition removed. This
gives rise to broad discussion, with
much to be said on both sides. The
competition of women in all walks OF

of the chapter, but we ara of the opin-
ion that larger wages for men and
more comfortable home life provided
for women would promote marriage
and the instinct of home.making that
that lies at the very root of organized
society, government and civilization.

should be given for the able m anagers
