The New York Press publishes
programme upon which, it says, Presi-
dent Roosevelt and the Republican
leaders in Congress have agreed and
which will be carried out with as little
delay ss possible. Among ether things
1t includes legislation providing for
a reduction of representation in Con-
eress and the electoral college of
those southern States thai have res
stricted negro suffrage by constitu-
tional enactment It is announced
that a an early date such bill will be
introduced by Senator Lodge of
Massachusetts, and that it will be sup
ported by the power and influence
of the Republican admin tration.

notice that political warfare is TO be

next four years, but the threat will

COW, the whip came down viciously,
the animal threw up her head, thereby
saving it from the rushing wheels
which just grazed the skin.
But as though ashamed of this slight
concession, the COW snorted and
walked quickly to the middle of the

lowered her head to the automobile in
