DISTURBING THE HARMONY OF

Crowded with Negroes.

Frankfort Special to Louisville Cour-
Ter Journal
The twenty second annual meeting
of the Kentucky Department of the
Grand Army of the Republic. being
held here for two days past. came to a
close shortly after noon today amid
much bitterness between the Lilly
Whites" and the Negro" factions. which
will result in an effort by the members
of at least one post-Whitaker Post,
OF Louisville-to cut themselves COM
pietely away from the negro veterans,
If this Is possible, when the national
organization meets at Boston this year.
The trouble began yesterday when
the candidate of the Louisville Post
for Department Commander for Ken
lucky, Jacob Seibert, OF that city, was
defeated by William Bowsmith. of
Bellevue who received the unanimous
negro vote under the direction and as
Stance, Seibert's friends claim, of Col.
Mike Minton and other members of
Thomas Post of Louisville. The ne
groes to a man voted with Minton for
Bowsmith. and also carried through
a list of officers who were on the slate
arranged, and three of whom, accord
ing to the other faction. are negroes.
The majority faction also refused
consideration to the resolution offered
yesterday afternoon by Judge o. S.
Deming, of Robertson County, urging
the National body to call upon Con-
gress to erect at Washington a monu-
ment to the memory of Gen. Robert E.
Lee, of the Confederacy. thereby de-
feating It. 1t was never allowed to
come from the hands of the committee
of the body to whom it went yester-
day. The resolution was presented
~ lie
ly by that side, and they were much
at the failure of the Ken
lucky Department to adopt 1t.
Entitled to a representation in dele
gates of five hundred there were only
about one hundred and sevent-five
delegates in attendance upon this an
nual meeting. and of this number be-
tween ninetyfive and one HUNDRED were
negroes. The Lily Whites" number

gates present were lined up with the

great metropolitan dailies.
II is true that a good deal has been
said about cotton speculation and the
hardships to which the mill owners are
being subjected by the prevailing
prices. The general opinion seems to
prevail that high priced cotton Is a

that prosperity and progress will be

The Dixie Chapter, Montgomery.

On Wednesday, June LIST, the after
noon sunshine, shifting to and fro
through the whispering leaves. fell on
the members of the Dixie Chapter, as
sembled on the vine-clad portico of
Mrs. ]. Lewis Cobbs for the last meet
ing of the season.
After the President called the body
to order and approved the minutes of
the last meeting. the Secretary, Mrs.
william A. Gayle, offered several let
tiers to the consideration of the Chap
ter. In response to one from Miss
Louise Frabue of the r. e. Lee Chap
ter of Ohio the President appointed as
a committee Mrs. Forney Stevenson,
Miss Arlington and Mrs. Louis Moore
to send, for the 18th of June, a box of
ribbon grass, Magnolia and Pomegran-
ern flowers for the graves of the Con-
federate dead in Camp Chase Cemetery,
Ohio.
The resignation of Miss Martha
Wood having been regretfully received.
Mrs. Louis Moore accepted, much to
the qualification of the Chapter. the
Office of treasurer, now offered her for
the second time.
After the regular business had re-
ceived due attention. the President
made a very interesting report of the
proceedings or the convention OF the
State Division. recently held at Green's
boro. One fact always asserts itself
in the conventions of women. l. e., that
the rush of social entertainments
leaves not enough time for the regular
business for which they have assem-
bled. Ouery-Why are women in their
conventions so besieged by social at
tentions that they find it'd ificult to
transact the business of the conven-
ton, while men are permitted 90 to
make business their first consideration
and pleasure a side issue? Are women
more social by nature and education, or
men less attractive or-fearful sugges-
tion-are men less easily beguiled from
work in hand? An observer mildly
suggests that an additional day be ap :
pointed for the sessions of the conven.
ton of the Alabama Division and that
this third day be devoted entirely to
convivial enjoyment
When the clock was on the stroke Of
7, and the President had cooled the ar
dor for business by delicious ices, the
members of the Dixie Chapter bade one
another a reluctant farewell until oc-
tober.
