Lafayette from a progressive
point of view has made very salts
factory progress. The Lafayette
of ten years ago, or even five, is
a very different Lafayette from
what it is to-day, but we must
not rest content with our ex-
cellent achievements so far. The
good work should go on. We
can't stand still: it is either go
forward or backward. BY all
means let it be forward. And to
accomplish this we must secure
more railroad facilities and as
many industries as possible. Il
will take persistent and united
effort and Lafayette is ready for
it. Will the Progressive League

The Platt resolution for the
/. reduction of Southern repre-
6entation in Congress, introduced
BY request of a Republican club
ofNew York. is meeting with but
scant encouragement from the
leaders, who look upon such
agitation as tnwise and are in
clined to ask. of what use is the
Measure. Under existing rules
OF the Senate the Democrats
could talk it to death and block
needed legislation, and that is
far from desirable. Besides
many of the members prefer to
leave the Southern States to
work out the 9ace. problem in
their own way.

The Southern Question in the
North.


the tone of the leading Northern
ne wspapers that the majority of
the people of that section of the
country would much rather that
the political solidarity of the
South be dissolved than it's rep
resentatiOn in Congress and the
Electoral College reduced. They
realize, however, that its solid
arity can be broken only by the
withdrawal of the pressure
which has caused it, hence there
are unmistakable signs of the
crystalization of a strong OPP
position in the North to the pas
sage Of any measure by Con
gress that will interfere with the
suffrage laws adopted by the
Southern States. The intelli-
gence Of the North now fully un-
d~erstandS that the restriction Of
the suffrage in the South was a
necessity. and as it could not be
accomplished constitutiOnally
on the color line" it had to be
done by educational and
property requirements. These
tests meet with the approval of
a very large body of the
Northern people, because they
believe that it will serve as an in
centive to the better class of me-
groes to qualify for the suffrage
and thus separate themselves
from the ignorant mass of their
race.
There is another fact that has
greatly impressed the conserva-
tive element in the North,
namely. that in States where the
negroes outnumber the whites
and where there IS ever present
the memory of the terrible ex-
perience of black rule under
Northern leadership. the mere
thought of the recurrence of
such conditions as existed dur
ing the period of reconstruction
Is sufficient to keep the white
men of the South constantly on
the defensive and compel them
to resent any attempt to enforce
even encourage the idea of
equality which really
means negro domination. The
Philadelphia Ledger which un-
questionably reflects the senti-
ment of the intelligent classes of
the North is earnest and out
spoken in it's opposition to the
scheme to reduce the South's re-
presentation in Congress and de-
that the best interests of
the country will be promoted by
it as quick as possible.
In commenting on the suffrage
laws which it is proposed to at
tack by the bill which Senator
Platt has introduced in the
Senate, the Ledger says:
If they are in error in treat
ing the negro as a negro and
iisqualifying the race as a race,
the error is much greater of
recognizing the negro purely
Is a negro and appointing him

is not pretended that the
black men who are given Federal
positions in the South are the
pest qualified citizens of their
districts. Such appointments
ire given distinctly as a recogni.
ion of the race rather than of
Individual desert. They inevi-
ably recall to mind the reign

President Roosevelt recon.
mended in his message that the
powers of the Interstate Com
merce Commission be enlarged.
That he is pressing the matter
vigorously the following extract
from a special to the Times
Democrat shows:
1t is understood the President
said this afternoon that the need
Of a law which would prevent
the railways of the country i'm
posing con the people was the
most pressing of any of which
he knew. He told his callers
with the utmost emphasis that
such a bill must be enacted. He
declared that the Republican
party would have to encounter a
radical socialist party four years
hence unless something was
done in a Legislative way for the
r0lief of the masses of the people.
he thought a law giving to the
interstate Commerce Commits
sion the authority to regulate
the rates charged by railways
would prove the most beneficial
act that Congress could under
take.

Since the first hearing before the
governor OF the petition to GUST the
sheriff Of Iron county, Wis, many
wonderful Sidelights OF life in Hurley
ARE being brought to notice. A profess
sional gambler from Minneapolis
heard OF the harvests to be reaped
in the northern Wisconsin iron town
and went there to start a gambling
house. Like most gamblers, he did
not often get drunk, but the first
time he became hilarious in Hurley
was enough to make him quit the
place as too tough even for him. His
spree lasted -four days. and when he
became sober he was presented with
a bill from one Of his competitors in
the loan and gambling house business
for 81 300 for wines and liquors dis
pensed at his word during the prog
reSs OF the spree. Other wet goods
dealers came in with claims aggregat.
ing 2,300 He refused payment and
the claimants joined in bringing suit
In the circuit court 20 collect their
bills. The gambler was able to show
in court that the bills presented
against him amounted to more than
the value OF all the wines ana liquors
In the entire city OF Hurley at the
time OF his celebrated spree. In this
manner he escaped being lleeced by
his fellow business men, but he dis
continued operations In Hurley.
The proprietor Of treveling variety
show determined 10 settle down TO a
quite life in the village OF Hurley and
he purchased the Hurley theater for
50, 800 in cash lie then rented the
gambling department TO the former
proprietor and received back con
siderable sum for rental. After a few
days the proprietor relaxed and went
ON drunk, meanwhile patronizing
generously the roulette wheel OF the
former proprietor and left Hurley
with 50 cents in bis pocket. lie was
acquainted with the conductor OF the
train that took him to Minneapolis,
and was able 10 be trusted for his
fare.
