From Superintendent Titles East

he is a little inclined to park beauti-

The Democrats sprung the great

BROTHER IN BLACK.

Senator Prichard of North Carolina
says he does not believe that Presi-
dent Roosevelt said what the Asso-
ciated Press dispatches report him as
having said to Bishop Clinton a few
days ago concerning the Republican
party in the South and the Negro
voters, but, says the senator, whether
true or not will make no impression
on me-" We believe it was Senator
Prichard that first started the move
ment to disfranchise the Negro in
the Republican party and he seems to
be sticking to his text
The Negro voters of st. Joseph, Mo-,
have come to the conclusion that it
is best for them to go it alone and

TONY DIEGO A SUCCESS.

The Italian in this country has
proven himself to be a huge success
in nearly every walk of life in which
he has allowed his steps to wander His
habits and customs may not be Of a
kind that are conducive to bring about
social relationship between himself
and the effete American, who believes
that cleanliness is next to goodness, y
nevertheless he does a class of work
that no American will permit himself
to do, and for that reason he is paid
well for it, and though the American
has to hold his nose while he is paw
ing him, he nevertheless pays him,
and that is the milk in a cOcOanut.
Very few persons in the United States.
especially American born, would ever
think OF gathering up the garbage of
city, as do the Italians, regardless
OF how well it pays, and yet those who
are engaged in it are making small
fortunes out of it. No one begrudges
them what they make because it is a
fortune we'll earned But when the
Italian has made his fortune and sets
himself up in a palatiaI residence he
is at once transformed from a garbage
HEAVIER into an American gentleman.
His money gives him prominence and
position in the community in which
he lives, his former occupation to the
contrary Notwithstanding. The Ital-
ian boot black is no less a success
than the garbage gatherer and the
Italian labOrer for the most part can
always show you something laid away
for a rainy day because he is frugal.
lives cheaply and puts away piece
Of money for a time when he will not
be able to make any. On the whole it
can be safely said that the Italians.
though their calling be low from an
American standpoint, make very &C
ceptable citizens The gardening in
and about Seattle and most all West
ern towns is given up almost wholly
to the Italians and here is another
class of the Italian colony that is MAX

pie.

THE STRIKE Is SETTLED

The country by and large is pleased
beyond measure at the settlement of
the great Pennsylvania coal strike.
which has lasted for so many weary
weeks. Regardless of who was right
or wrong in this case the people were
the sufferers therefrom and the people
are glad to see the strike settled and
the miners returned to work that
there be no scarcity of coal for the
coming winter, which has already to
some extent put in it's appearance.
What the result would have been if
the strike had continued throughout
the winter no one could have even
family predicted. That hundreds of
persons would have suffered and per-
haps died from the effects of an INSULT
Gent amount Of coal there is no doubt.
and even now that the miners have re
turned to work it will require many
weeks before sufficient supply of an
thIacite coal can be taken from the
mines to supply the demand in order
to prevent suffering among the poor.
as coal will necessarily be extremely
high for a number of weeks vet to
come. Regardless of whether the
miners or the operators have won
their point in the settlement of this
case, both sides have lost enough fl.
nanciaily to require years to wipe out.
This is especially true Of the miners.
Though they should get the increase
they demanded it would require five
years constant labor for them to earn
as much as they have lost since they
hrst went out on the strike. 1t is
very doubtful, however, if they have
won their point and it is highly prob
able that in the end they will find
themselves working for just the same
figures as they. did before the strike.
President Roosevelt is to be com
mended for sthe manly stand that he
has taken in the matter, even antag-
onizing the greatest financiers and
capitalists in the country in his fight
for the laboring man He has popu-
larized himself with the people and
If nominated he will be overwheIm-
ingly elected.

ITALIANS ARE COMING.

commissioners report that during the
fiscal year just closed in the neighbor-
hood OF 1000 Italians came to the
United States for the purpose of MAX
ing this country their home and evil
IDENTIFY to better their social and finan-
cial conditions Few persons realize
that such a stream OF Italians were
pouring into this country, unless it
was those persons that happened to
be living in New York City and then
happened to be so situated as to be
able to observe the hOrdes of Italian
immigrants as they passed through
Castle Garden. Just what is attract
ing SO many of those people to Amer
lea at the present time is rather
perpleXing question, nevertheless, they
are coming and coming in boat loads
almost every day in the year For the
most part they are drifting to all
parts of the United States, and even
the South, strange to say, is catching
quite a few of them 1t is believed by
many OF the Southern land owners
that the Italians will prove to be val
liable acquisitions to the agricultural
sections of that country and may per-
haps supplant Negro labor, as they
make good cotton pickers and it is
thought they will be able to convert
the hill districts into vineyards equal
Iy as valuable as those of their native
country. The success, however, of the
Southern Italian on the cotton farm
and his success on the higher lands
as vineyardists are prOblematical and
it will take actual experience to prove
the e.ulness of either.

Miss Portia Washington, daughter of
Booker T. Washington, the well-known
Tuskegee educator, has been turned

To that end any erring brother who

there are or not it is not in the pro-

corporal punishment on men and wo-

ACTUAL LOSS AT MINES

to business men in the region, $751;
100000; losses to business men out
side the region, $9,S0O,O0O; cost of
maintaining coal and iron police, ST.
100000; cost of maintaining nOnunion
men, 100000; cost Of troops in the
region, $550,000; damage to mines and
machinery, $6,5OO,O0O; grand total,
