approached upon the subject are heart
lily in favor of the project.

WOOdmen lodges of Topeka, Nos. 536-
1913 and $500 form the battalion. The

CATERS AGAINST
 THE LILY WHITES
A PROMINENT REPUBLICAN OF. SOUTH CAROLINA SAYS ELM NATION OF NEGRO IS NOT CON- slsTENT WITH GOOD GOVT.

Charleston. S. C.. October 1s.-In view of the action of the republican party in Alabama and North Carolina on the ne gro question and the holding of repub- lican conventions this week in the con- gressional districts in this state, Captain John G. capers, United States district attorney and republican national com mitteeman from South Carolina, was asked today what was the position of the republican party in this state on the negro question.
 He said: "The organization and opera ton of political parties upon purely racial classification is, to my mind, wholly in consistent with the spirit of our govern ment, requiring, as our government does. well defined duties and responsibilities from all of it's citizens. In the exercise of citizenship when the negro asserts a right and demonstrates that 1t rests upon intelligence and character rather than upon race prejudice or fancied and un- earned distinction, his rights should be respected as an American citizen, regard less of his color.
 "In politics the negras trouble in the south comes in a large measure from the advice he receives from his northern colored brother, who ruins the effect of a protest against a white mans party in the south by practical demand for a black mans party. There is no good req son why the republican party in the south shall be all white and there is every reason why 1t should not be all black

AUBURN TEAM WILL
 ARRIVE TONIGHT
Had Their Last Practice YeSter-
 day and Feel Confident
VARSITY COMES TOMORROW
If the Tuscaloosa Boys Do Not Ex- hibit Stage Fright They VIII
 Put Up a Great Game.
 Large Crowd Expected.

Auburns football eleven, coachers and followers will reach the city tonight at o'clock. They held their final practice game yesterday afternoon against the scrub, and Coaches Kent and Harvey expressed themselves as well pleased with the afternoons work.
 Tuscaloosa lined up as usual for a hard practice with the scrub This afternoon they will have light practice, run sig nals and perfect a few tricks for Satur- days contest.
 The varsity will reach here Saturday morning and will no doubt find plenty of orange and blue mingled with crimson and white on their arrival.
 Auburn has had week longer In which to practice than Tuscaloosa. They have also had the benefit of two of the best coaches in the south and a student body of over 400 men from which to select team. Tuscaloosa has only 200 students from which to select a team, and has had only one coach to round out an eleven. But that man was Eli Abbott, and it seems that "Old Elr' has performed nis duty well.
 Tuscaloosa Team Is Strong.
 Experts agree that Tuscaloosa mas the strongest team since '94, which. by the way, was the year they defeated Auburn by a score of IS to 0. Ell coached the team on that occasion, and Tuscaloosa enthusiasts expect to see him keep up his winning record.
 Last year Auburn and Georgia played tie game and the Tuscaloosa Georgia game was a tie, yet Alabama defeated their sister college by a score of IS to 0. This seemed to be due in measure to stage fright on the part of the Univer- sity team. In the second half of the game, after Tuscaloosa had recovered from her nervousness. Auburn was un- able to score.
 Tuscaloosa has as a rule defeated Au- burn in games of baseball. but Auburn has returned the compliment when the football season rolled around This year Tuscaloosa hopes to make a clean sweep. Auburn has said very little and what they have given out has been of dis couraging nature.
 Auburn Is Foxy.
 Foxy Auburn their game against the Techs shows they are in condition and are playing fast ball, and that is what counts. Auburn has only played one game, that against the Techs in Atlanta. They won this game by a score of IS to 6. Tuscaloosa has played two games, one against a picked eleven from Birming- ham, whom they defeated by a score of 57 to O. The other game was on Monday last against the Marion Military institute, when they ran up score of sl to O. Both of these teams were weak, so the large score has not great deal of significance. Judging from the number of reserved seats sold and the enthusiasm created. West End park will be taxed to its ut- most capacity tomorrow when the ref cree blows his whistle for the beginning of the annual struggle against the two rivals sure enough football game is in store for Birmingham enthusiasts.
