The Board of Education of Nc
Mahon Borough, near Pittsburg, Pa.
has stirred up much i'll feeling be
tween the white and colored citizens
by establishing a "Jim Grow" school.
The negroes assert there is no law in
the State to compel them to send
their children to the new school, and
the board, which main aius 1t is act
ing within the provisions of the law
by supplying a school and teacher.
has ordered the truant officer to en-
force attendance. The Afro-Ameri-
can Republican League went into the
county courts and secured writ of
mandamus against the school board,
compelling it to show cause why
negro children should not be per-
mitted to attend white public schools.
The rule is returnable today (Friday).
Pittsburg has been one of the hot
beds for stirring up enmity against
the South for its racial distinctions,
and now chickens are coming home
to roost. All of which reminds us
that at the present rate of negro mi
grafton from South to North it will
not be long before the South will be
laughing at their Northern brethren
combating the harrassing NEGRO
problem"

THE PRESIDENTS TRIP

Richmond has seemingly passed
through the event of this generation
that is, President Roosevelt passed
through there on his trip South,
stopping long enough to let our hero
worshippers "break their necks' over
the occasion.
The President will veni-vidi-yici a
few other cities before reaching New
Orleans. Any really alert and up.
to-date yellow fever NOSE dito willing
to remain awake all day can reach
the President at New Orleans, but
the fact that the President is not to
remain in that city by night removes
most of the danger, as it is at night
the mosquitoes operate chiefly.
Surgeon-General Rixey, who will
De constantly with the President
throughout his Southern trip, saws
1T would be impossible actually TO
screen the President when he was
riding about New Orleans and when
be was speaking. The cars on the
RESIDENTS train, however, will be
carefully screened and fumigated at
frequent intervals. The rooms in
the hotel where the President stays
will be inspected ia advance by DR..
Eixey and other physicians, and will
be screened and fumigated. In case
the President should be bitten by O
mosquito the poison will be cut out
at once by an incision.

SWANSON PLAYED REPUBLICANS

Hon. Claude A. Swanson spoke at
Warrenton Saturday. The Demo.
cratic nominee did not warm up to
his text till he touched upon the sub.
ject of corruption under certain adj
ministrations, and then his language
grew extremely caustic.
at requires monumental gall for
a Republican to allude to corruption
when speaking to Democrat" he
said with evident heat.
lie implied that Republication
and corruption walked hand In hand
together, and sought to substantiate
his statements with facts.
Six years ago Delaware was under
Democratic rule; since then, under
the Republican regime, it has been q
hotbed of vice and corruption.
Taking up the question of the
negro, he said:
at Is my earnest intention to al
ways treat the black man with fair
ness, but owing to his ignorance /
would never have him pass upon
questions OF Importance or submit to
his rule. If l am elected Governor
you will see a man who is deeply in
terested in popular education. l
taught public school myself once
under Republican administration
for $50 per month. l had difficulty
10 securing this sslary after it was
due. 1t is my purpose to give you
better buildings for educational pur-
poses and to pay you higher salaries.
1t is written In a section of our Con-
stitution that poor children shall be
supplied with textbooks. The Re-
publicans have never known of this.
They are about as long on ignorance
as they are on corruption. II you
want to stay home and do your own
cooking and blowing while you send
negro children to school, then vote
the Republican ticket"
he stated how the old Confederate
was being made much of by the other
party nowadays in order to get votes.
"But I've seen the day." he said,
"when they would not give dime to
their maintenance"

NICELY SAID.

With its last issue the VIRGINIA CITIZEN
entered its fifteenth year, and Brother
Lee, IN very modest local, mentions the
TACT. True merit is most always modest.
The CITIZEN has reached a stage in Jour
naiism when it does not have to blow it's
own whistle Its real value is voiced by
its many readers and it's ability IS recog-
nized by its contemporaries. And while
We editor of the Progress has not the
pleasure OF personal acquaintance with
the editor of the CITIZEN, yet-by that free
masonry which exists among newspaper
men, we are proud to call him "brother. y
and while the Progress is only a three
year-old, we look upon the CITIZEN as
''grown-up people," and model for any
young journal to foilow.-Colonial Beach
Progress.
For all that. the Progress is a
pretty lusty youngster. The CITIZEN
does not feel too ancient, and is not
at all so envious as not to recognize
worth in the PROFESSIONALISM the

ducing from our Westmoreland ex-
change from time to time.

PARTRIDGEs IN THE POTOMAC.

A very remarkable incident oc-
CURED last week while Capt. Beauch-
amp was sailing up the Potomac
river. He captured a flock of twenty
eight cartridges swimming in the
river. He brought them to Colonial
Beach and turned them loose. 1t is
supposed that the birds had at
tempted to fly across the river, and
gave out before reaching their desti-
nation. When Captain Beauchamp
discovered them they were almost ex-
hausted, and would in all probability
have drowned in a few moments.
The Potomac can boast of some re-
markable finds having been made in
its waters. Last fall we wrote that
it was furnishing china plates on
which to serve its oysters, and now
it bids fair to be able to supply our
people with quail on toast.-Oolonial.

A VIEW OF SWANSON.

a former Irvingtonian, q man of
wide knowledge and travel, now q
resident of fredericksburg, writes
thus In a private letter to q friend in
lrvington:
Il heard Senator Martin and Swanson
speak few nights ago. They had big
house and well pleased audience. Swan
son ia regular cyclone and whirl-wind
all combined. He twists folks all M In
heap and carries them where he pleases
with his wonderful oratoricai flights Of
Impressive facts. He is gifted man,
with an honest heart, and very foroeful
way OF expressing his convictions to
willing crowd. Ipredict he will make the
best governor Virginia has had in MANY
years, and he will come into Office at a
very important epoch or era in the his.
tory OF the State. His gigantic powers
will be put forth with marked energy In
behalf of tine very best interests of the
State and for the whole people. His
mind Is clear and logical, his ambition Is
ia1daDle and his chief aims are for the
development of the latent interests of
Virginia which will be for the betterment
OF all the people. His thorough knowI.
edge OF the state enables him to look
intelligently to ali of her diversified in.
terests. His broad and manly views and
bis 1ust and refined regard for his fell
bowman will at all times prompt him 20
do good to all. His nomination is not
merely pleasure to me, but is q pro.
found qualification, feeling we can safely
look for much good in his administra-
ton. l think he has the cast of char.
acter and the kind OF sense we need In
the executive chair at this time. His
practical sense will enable him to nut
into action and force his theories OF
political economy and justice. In short,
he has the best interest OF the State at
heart and Is fully capable of holding the
helm aud weathering the storm"

WAR FORMALLY ENDED.
EmperOrs or Russia and Japan Sign
The Treaty.

The Emperors of Russia and Japan
Saturday morning at st. Petersburg
and Toxic signed their respective
copies of the Portsmouth Peace
Treaty. This action officially ter
minated the war in the Far East.
The Russo-Japanese war began
February 8, 1904, with the naval at
tack by the fleet under the command
of Admiral Togo upon the Russian
ships at Port Arthur. The war was
officially terminated October ii, 1905,
by the signing of the treaty.
At the outset of the war there
were few military or naval strategists
who believed that japan could be
victorious, but before many months
had expired 1t became evident that
the Japanese army as we'll AS the
japanese navy was far superior to
that of Russia. Victory after victory
for the arms of Japan came in rapid
succession, and never from the begin
ming of the war until its terminatlon
did Russia gain one victory of any
importance. The Russian navy was
almost annihilated. The Russian
army was driven from its supposedly
impregnable positions on the Man.
churian coast back hundreds of miles
to position in front of Hardin. The
loss of life in both armies wac very
large.
While Japan does not get any in
demnity as u result of her succession
of victories, she does get all that she
contended for at the outset of the
war and much more. The fishing
privileges given her in Siberian
waters is expected to amount in
three years time to a greater sum
than she asked as an indemnity. The
administrative entity and territorial
Integrity of China is assured by the
victory of Japan. The open door in
China is also assured. Through her
defeat Russia apparently loses her
chance of ever obtaining her long,
sought supremacy in the Far East.

AFTER MCCALL.

After John A. McCall's further
confession nothing remains but for
the State of New York to follow the
State of Nevada and to debar the
New York Life from doing further
business as long as Mccall is its presi.
dent and Perkins is chairman of its
finance committee.
But there is q more effective pun,
ishment. District Attorney Jerome
should act ut once. Indictment and
3 prompt trial will do more to help
both popular confidence in the ad,
ministration of justice and in the
cause of good government az EN-.
bodied IN Mr.. Jerome's reelection,
What more can Mr.. Mccall con-
fess /?
He has testified that the public
statements of the New York Life are
false. 1t is a crime for life insur.
ance company to issue false state
ments.
He has testified that money was
paid to prevent the passage Of unde-
sired legislation. 1t ia a crime to
bride public officials.
He has testified that the old policy.
holders money was taken to pay the
cost of obtaining new policies. That
is larceny.
lie has testified that the books OF
account were cooked. That is forgery.
OF course, Mccall and Perkins
must and will go. But that 10 not
enough. Their punishment should
be more than public disgrace. II
should be penal, aud Mr.. Jerome
should see that it is meted out, if not
another indictment is found for the
remainder of his present term.-N

FISH AND OYSTER NOTES.

f. w. Long Il Co.'s shocking house
IN lrsington started up Thursday.
Warrants have been issued for the
arrest of about dozen men accused
OF taking oysters from Nsnsemoud
river fats.
Steamer Euphane of the Gill-Eu.
bank fish works aud the steamers of
the Carriers Creek menhsden wor ks
all "cut out" last week. The season
IN Virginia has been moderately
prosperous.
The oystermen have certainly had
ideal weather since the beginning of
the season, but scarcity of oysters is
the complaint on every hand, and
when the weather gets little bad we
fear there will be little or nothing
doing on the rocks. There is a fair
"strike" AMI small oysters are said
to be plentiful. Such conditions, we
think, necessitate a still greater en-.
forcement of the Gull law and we
trust the inspectors will give this
their undivided attention. Almost
this entire section, directly or indi-
rectly, is dependent upon the oyster
business for livelihood, and we
should watch that business with
"eagle eye" and lend our aid and as.
slstance to the best interest of our
people.-Southside Sentinel.
The Maryland State Game and
Fish Protective Associations execu.
tive committee held an enthusiastic
meeting Friday night ut the Eutaw
House to arrange for the annual
meeting to be held on Friday, Octo-
Der "a, and to discuss proposed legis-
iation at Annapolis during the com.
ing session of the Legislature, saws
the Baltimore Sun. The committee
took up the question of under-size
fish and Endorsed the arrangement
made, by which the shippers are held
for shipping under-size fish, rather
than the wholesaler to whom the fish,
are sent. About $50 seizures have
been made thus far, aud it is proba-
bic that in short time no under
size fish will come to Baltimore. A
committee to prepare and look after
bills for the fish and game protective
association in the Legislature was ap-
pointed.

POLITICAL.

In many of the states today in
which the Republican party has alb
solute sway, mixed schools exist.
What assurance can the Republicans
give us that their success in Virginia
would not be attended with like re-
suits here. We believe that Republic
can supremacy means mixed schools,
and mixed schools in Virginia means
the education Of those who are able
to attend private schools aud that
the very poor children will grow up
IN ignorance. Democrats of Vir-
ginia, are you willing to take the
riskY-Colonial Beach Progress.
Congressman w. A. Jones created
a sensation in Fredericksburg Mon
day when he charged Judge Lunsford
l.. Lewis, the Republican candidate
for Governor with having advocated
miscegenation i'll Virginia. He said
ne had recently been informed of this
utterance, which took place at Ches-
terrified Courthouse about the year
1877 OF 1878, in discussion between
General George j. Hundley, now
honored Circuit Court Judge of the
State, and Judge Lewis. Mr.. Jones
said there was pending in the Vir-
ginia Legislature q bill TO prevent
the intermarriage of the races. Gen.
eral Hnndley declared his approval
OF the measure, and demanded of
Judge Lewis that he state his posi-
ton in regard to it The reply came
that ne, Lewis, was opposed to its
passage and favored allowing the in
termarriage Of the races. Judge
Lewis says the charge is absolutely
false and that the debate he had with
General Hundley was in 1881. Judge
Lewis is indignant over the matter
and makes statement asking if the
charge were true why it has been
withheld so long. Judge Hundley
says it is true.

In widely separated parts of this
country aud Canada. Among them
was the following:
Mrs. Sadie l. Crabbe, aged thirty
five, of Cooper's Landing, Northum-

February IL, 1905, while attempting
to save from drowning Ralph Young

thereby lost her own, life were fully
recounted in the CITIZEN last Feb

this connection we should add that
it was almost entirely through the
efforts of r. S. Brent, Commissioner
of the Revenue for Northumberland.

- THE Holston conference of the
Methodist Episcopal Church South,
at Bristol, last week fixed the price
of stolen kiss at six months sus-
pension from the ministry. This
was the decision in the case of Rev.
w. w. Hicks, of Chilhowie, Va, who
had been arraigned before the con-
ference on the charge of having ac-
cepted a ''dare" to kiss a pretty
woman member of his congregation.
The convicted minister announced
that be would appeal the case. We
can't imagine what stuff the Holston
people are made of. Its decision
will hardly meet with popular ap-
proval, unless there were unmitigated
circumstances attending. and not on
