A REFERENCE TO VIRGINIA.

According TO the report of the Aud.
ltor of Public Accounts the value of the
property of the colored people both real
and personal in 1900 was SIS, $50, $40 and
In 1907, 1t was Sl6,S22 eli, an increase of
S966,04l in 10 months.
The number of acres of land owned
by the colored people in 1900 was gg3.
oil acres and in 1901, il was / .O(;6. 3O9
acres, an increase OF 20, 762 acres in 10
months
The whites owned $50, $40 acres less
in 1901 than they did in 1900. 1t shows
that the land of the common wealth is
slowly but surely passing into the
hands Of the colored people. In Rich.
mond, the value of property, both real
and personal owned by colored people
IN 1900 was $1,i16, 659 and in 1901. il
was 81 1927 an increase in one wear
OF $4,000. Mr.. Mitchell then spoke
OF the Mechanics Savings Bank re-

phenopenal success and the necessity

enterprises and employ one another.
INCREASES ANIMos1TY.
1t is this progress, Mr.. President.
which is increasing the animositv of
the poor whites and to an extent al
least, increasing the jurisdiction
and power of Judge Lynch.
Will a retrograde movement lessen
the evil? Will yielding up OF our ma
terial wealth, the REIMBURSEMENT of onr
hopes for the future cause a cessation
of the evils from which we now sufferS
Will 1T cause an indefinite adjournment
of the court of Judge Lynch and give
us some peace on this side of the ,Jor-
dan?
1t might do it, Mr. President, but the
results following would be worse than
the evils from which we now suffer.

MARBLE it in their carols and even the dew

Judge Lynch and his victims will live
only In song and story as a horrible

our backs upon the past and look to the

The whole state, Cavalier eoun-
ty included, is able to give an ap-
preciatiye reception to the issue of
Colonel Lounsberry's North Da-
kota Record for the present
month. The number deals largely
with descriptive reading matter,
we'll illustrated, relating 20 North
Dakota's real estate interests. In
addition to sixty odd pages of sub
ject matter, is to be found big
line of advertising, half a dozen
Cavalier county dealers having
prominence in this latter feature.
The number of the Record for the
present month is one of the best
things IN the way of immigration
literature that has yet come to our
notice.

In his speech in the senate, SEN
ator Hoar declared he bad reoeiv-
ed many requests asking him to
support the proposition relating to
the election of senators by the
people. But Senator Hoar said
that these requests bore the ear
marks of worked up sentiment"
Senator Hoar should know that it
is very difficult matter to 'swork
up sentiment" where sentiment
does not really exist; and he should
not forget that when he declared
that the sentiment of the Ameri-
can people is opposed to the policy
of imperialism, he was met with
the charge that the letters. and
petitions which served as testi-
mony ON that line In support Of
his claim bore the earmarks of
worked up sentiment" But it
Senator Hoar really has any doubt
as to the sentiment of the people
upon the question of election of
senators, he would obtain valuable
information by consulting the
daily newspapers of the country

fifths of the metropolitan newspa.

THERE is strange admixture
of city, county and state politics
in the row at present pending owe,
at Devils Dake, which got it's start
q week or so ago at the time that
Judge Cowan roasted the Devils
Lake city authorities for the re-
ceiving of fines from blind piggers.
Devils Lake is the town where the
polical bosses are supposed to bow
the knee to Senator marlborough
and the digging of a deep grave
for the burying of Cowan's soma

next thing to be anticipated.
