A WORTHY OBJECT

Another effort is being made to erect
building for the Young Mems Chris
tian association in ST. Paul Several
times, after the fairest prospects, the
project has fallen just short of compile,
ton. Again it has been taken up, and
this time we hope it will be crowned
with success.
The Clio b e has already published
the statement of the directors Of the Y.
M. c. A. with reference to their need.
These are men of great business expe-
rience and of high standing and much
weight in this community. They feel
that the enterprise is an exceptionally
important one. They are sufficiently
impressed to give their time to the
raising Of a large sum of money, and
to engage in a labor that is always
arduous and generally unpleasant.
They ask of our people a sum of $780,
900 to provide an adequate home for
the association.
these gentlemen, but to the cause
which they represent, to respond with
liberal generosity ito their appeal. st.
Paul stands almost alone among the
many cities of it's size with respect to
the Y. M. C. A. work. Elsewhere it has
had encoura cement, been provided
with ample quarters and enabled to
enlarge the area of it's splendid benef-
cence. Here it has been cramped and
narrowed, and rendered partially in
effective by the inadequacy of it's ac-
commodations and support. He who
gives to the committee soliciting for
this work will give wisely, and should
give as abundantly as his means will
permit.
Also, it would appear, M. Maxine
Gorky is a much more effective talker
than you would think after reading one
of his novels.

RUSSIA AND THREE BIRTHDAYS

it0OStH HtN1 If6A y
1t is worthy of note that now, as the
final consummation of the Russian
popular movement for reform and rep
resentative government is in its first
stages, the birthdays of three pioneers
of democracy come sin bunch" They
are:
: Jan. %, Lord Byron, who antago-
nized his own aristocratie class to the
ultimate profit of the common people,
and who died for Greece.
Jan. 25, Robert Burns, in whose eyes
the accidents of birth, wealth and sta
ton were as nothing in the scales with
personal worth, the immortal foe OF all
despotism, crowned or uncrowned.
Jan. 20, Thomas Paine, who was
hated by George the Third and every
other king because his pen gave keener
edge to the sword of Washington.

THE COLOR LINE IN KANSAS

THE COLOR LINE IN KANSAS
= In Kansas, where the grass grows
high and the poet attunes his lay to
the note of the cicala, where the spirit
of liberty roams at large and every
man is candidate for the presidency,
they are inclined to war a little over
Booker T. Washington. In Wichita,
that state, notable as the home of the
Wichita liar, the head of the Tuskegee
institute was denied admission to the
hotels. In Topeka Mr.. Washington
was invited to address the legislature
and was personally honored by the
governor. Wherefore there is a row
on.
Unfortunately the war will not be to
the death. In Bleeding Kansas con-
versatlon, even of the most heated
character, is no more fatal than it is in
other sections of the country where
hot air is not regarded as a Iethal
weapon. More's the pity. 1t would
rejoice the rest of us exceedingly if the
Kansans would get out and make
good after the fashion of the Ken
tuckians. But we know they will not.
There will be an academic controversy
couched in language more Kansas than
academic, which will be terminated
when Mrs. Nation or some equally dis
tinguished Kansan makes a pro
nouncement which is to be accepted as
the utterance of the concrete wisdom
of the state.
Mr.. Washington is very respecta-
bic man. He is engaged in very
commendable work. The man and his
work have received the Endorsement
of people of undoubted Judgment. He
has been given the cachet of social ap-
proval by the White house. Still it is
entirely matter of taste in the indi-
vidual as to whether or no one should
sit at table with Mr.. Washington. But
that the keeper of a Wichita hotel
should object to entertaining him
that is to laugh at. The remarkable
thing is that a man who has Travelled
so much as Booker T. Washington
should want to stop at Wichita hotel.
Was there no stable handy, no depot
restaurant where he could obtain the
Wherewith to keep the breath in until
he could get to some place? Of course
it is possible that the hotelkeepers re-
fused to entertain Washington because
they feared he would write home and
tell the folks what villainous hotels
they kept. But that seems like expect
ing too much Of the intelligence of a
Wichita hotelkeeper. And now the
row is on. And much bad language
will be used by the heroes who fit and
bled to the end that the negro might or
| might not be free, as the case may
have been.
If it is true, as somebody said the
other day, that Kansas is the meat in
the national sandwich, it is too bad
that the stuffing of the lunch was not
embalmed-or perhaps the microbes
living in the meat might be chloro-
formed.
