1t is a most gratifying evidence Of
a'return to sanity upon the part of
our former cities in the North when
such q typical Republican newspaper
as she MS=YYor ri, T-:Lune comraends ur-
stintedly the progress theSouth is max
ing in education through the medium
OF common schools. It is even more
significant when it openly recognizes
and justly estimates the great difficult
ties we have to meet and surmount in
broadening our educational systems
and minimizing our percentage OF illit-
eraoy. More gratifying still is the
fact that the Tribune believes that the
leaders Of affairs in the South, having
taken up this task in q determined
manner, will perform it in strict JUS
tice and impartiality. .

The President Of the United States
has started on another huge swing
around the circle Which he modestly
calls IAN unprctentious little outing
Tor the purpose of avoiding public
lty. Let us see about that. The
schedule calls for abor. 200 speeches
and the party accompanying the Presi-
dent consists Of two secretaries, one
doctor, three stenographers, two secret
service men, one poet-naturalist, rep
resentatives Of three illustrated pa
pers, representatives Of three press
associations, one official photographer,
and two telegraph operators. What a
delightfully."- original way Of avoiding
publicity. 1t is surprising that ne
did not take along a brass band with
which so hunt those beara. The truth
OF the matter is that the gentleman
who occupies the highest civic posi-.
ton in the country is never so happy
as whea he is 10 the limeligtt on the
front Of the stage. This trip is q
stumping tour pure and simple. He
wants that nomination a heap moro
thap he wants those bears, aud he is
no overlooking any bets that will pile
up the blue chipsiu front ofhim.

From many persons the complaint
is heard that the cost Of living is in
crcasiug. Year by year rents have
been rising, building material has be-
come dearcr, while priccsof foodstuGs
have steadily advanced, beef especial
ly being too expensive for people Of
moderate means. What we're former
~ considered everyday necessaries are
now classified as Injuries. Persons
disposed to be economical find it neces-
sary to live on the plainest fare.

To oisinfranchise Neoroes.

Memphis, Tenn, Sept. l5.-United
States Senator Carmack explained
last night that his purpose In propos-
ing to introduce a bill at the next SEES.
sion of congress for the repeal of the
fifteenth amendment, thus ~disfranchis-
ing the negro, is simply TO open dis
cussion which will contribute to a So
luton of the race problem. To Sena-
tor Carmack's mind the surest plan
of solving the negro question. as il
affects the white race. both socially
and politically. lies in the negro's
elimination from politics. Should the
fifteenth amendment be repealed, the
question of treating with the negro
would be left To the states.
Another view entertained by Sen.
ator Carmack. is for the separation of
the races. But how to proceed. or
how long il will take, he does not at.
tempt 10 say. He believes. however,
that the races would be better con.
ditioned if they were separated. He
believes the black race Is a failure
and that it owes what little il has
achieved TO its association with the
white race. As to the enfranchise-
ment of the negro Immediately after
the war began with the states, the
senator regards that as a mistake
for which the repeal of the fifteenth
amendment would be an entirely i'm
partial reparation.

The amusements of the Filipinos
will form a feature of the exhibit of
great interest to the visitors. A Fill
ipino theatre will be constructed, in
which performances will be given by
the natives. A typical orchestra will
be provided, operas presented, and
vaudeville performances rendered.
A battalion of Philippine scouts
will be attached to the exhibit. A
battalion will consist of four compan-
les, and will be under the command
of a regular army officer. The four
principal Filipino tribes will be rep

and Ilocanos.
An interesting feature of this mill
tary exhibit will be the collection OF
weapons, many of which were taken
from the native soldiers when wal
was in progress. Some OF the bolos,
war clubs with heads at either end
are deliberately carved. The spears
too. death-dealing in war, make splen

The Originator of Range Horse Sales
Billings, Mont, Oct. Io-74 1908.
Two Good Ends and a Middle

The above are the requirements for
a first-class draught horse; they are
also the requirements for a first-class
range horse sale. First. 1t is neces-
sary to have a large supply of good
horses. Second: 1t is necessary to
have plenty of good buyers from
every section of the country. In the
third place it is equally necessary to
know how to conduct the sale. My
many sales during the past years
have proven that | have all of these
requirements at every sale.
| have never yet advertised a sale
and failed to have plenty of buyers
for all the horses that were there. |
have just completed a sale at Sheri-
dan. Wyoming, at which prices for
horses were higher than they have
ever been at my former sales, and |
believe higher than anyone has ever
sold horses for on the range.
Conditions are most favorable for
the sale of these horses in every Sec
ton of the country, Canada and all
the northwest country contains good
buyers for all horses suitable for their
trade. Nebraska. Iowa and Missouri
have abundant crops and farmers are
all anxious for horses fit to feed out
for spring trade. The demand in the
east for horses ready for service is
equally good. and the demand for
small horses in the south, where cot
ton is selling for from ten to twelve
cents a pound. where in former years
It has sold for four and four and a
half, is unusually strong.
am confident that this sale at
Billings will be one of the best sales
that | have ever made and that you
will not have a better opportunity to
sell your horses. Remember the date
and get your horses ready as soon as
possible.
For further information address
A. 3. CLARKE,
Billings, Mont.

horses in this sale and still wish to
dispose of them. write me.

will embrace the Manila plant, a ba-
mana tree bearing inedible fruit. Its
fibre produces the strongest ropes and
cables made. II will include ramie,
and all the fibre plants grown in the
archipelago. The great numbers OF
varieties shown, and the actual pro,
cess of transforming the fibrous
plants into the finished product, will
be an interesting revelation. and will
regards this n industry.
There will be a large herbarium,
representing the whole range OF bot
anical specimens in this line, and a
full collection of fibres in various
stages of manufacture. All sorts of
manufactured fabrics from vegetable
