up strife between the races. and en- gphasIzed his welI-known position. u at the South Is the best place for tfe negro
 Among other things he said: "Some of my people object to the statement that the South is the best place for the negro and that Southern CTS are his best friends; but must fsay if you place as many negroes in Indiana. Ohio or Pennsylvania as there are in Arkansas, Louisiana or Mississippi, the conditions will be ten times worse. For when a Yankee does hate a negro he hates him mo,e cordially than any Southerner can. Fully two- thirds of the white people of the South are friendly to the negro. MT. vardaman, Mir. Davis and other rabid public men donot represent the best sentiment of the South and are doing 1t more harm than good. count myself much better friend to the South than either Mir Vardaman or Mir. Davis. 1 was born in Mississ- ippi and am rock-ribbed Mississippi an. Whatever effects that state af- fleets me. I shall help In every way can to make the state of Mississippi the best state in the Union. We pay too much attention to the remarks of the professional politicians in the South. who harps on the negro for political purposes.
 "No professional politician who is shrewd enough to know that by vilify- ing the negro certain element of Southern white men will vote for him | is fool enough to attempt to carry out the blanks of the platform upon which he was elected. We must remember that political platforms, like railroad platforms, are made to "get in on" and not to stand on.
 SOCIAL EQAuLrTY Nor DESIRED.
 There is practically nothing in this 
 matter of social quality. The negro does net seek it. It is only the low down negro and dirty white man who desire to mingIe socially. have seen on an Illinois Central train in Mississippi a half dozen drunken ne- gro men and two or three low-down white men ningling socially in the Jim Crow car, drinking whiskey out of the same bottle. In one instance the bottle was passed to three negro men and the white man was the fourth man to drink from the mouth of that bottle. The mixing of this re- prehensible class of white and negro people in the south constitutes the most serious phase df the problem. For this same white man, who has made himself brute on the same level with the negro drunkards. would Ebe the first and foremost in mob to lynch negro. No woman wants such defender.
 "Our women can help us in this matter by resenting every insult offer ed them by white men. For heay- ems sake do not sell your womanhood for silk dress or fine hat. had rather be able to call myself an hon. est woman. pure and virtuous wom- an than revel in the luxuries bought by life of shame. "

VAN AUKEN GETS
TEN YEARS
Noted Forger and Jail Breaker
Will Have Time to Ponder on
his Method of Living.

Manager E. J. Whitney of the Grand
Rapids Hotel Co. received a communi
cation from Atty. Virgil I. Hixon, OF
Manistique, Prosecuting Attorney for
Schoolcraft County, Michigan, in
which he is informed of the trial, con-
viction and sentence of Harry Van
Auken the notorious forger and jail
breaker. In thanking Mr.. Whitney
and the stenographer in this city who
wrote the letters for Van Auken, for
their valuable assistance, Mr.. Hixon
takes occasion to state that Van Au-
ken received an indeterminate SEN
tence OF from two to ten years in the
state prison at Iona, Michigan, and
not from one to four years as was
reported in the newspapers of that
state and Wisconsin.
The checks and letters written and
forged in this city and which aided
materially in the severity of the SEN
tence imposed, were returned to Mr..
Whitney in the same letter, and that
gentleman remarked as he folded
them carefully and deposited them I'M
the safe: 81 will wait ten years if
necessary to use them.

COMMITTEE AT WORK

At the last session Of the County
Board committee was appointed to
Investigate the present condition of
the poor farm, estimate the cost of re.
pair, and if found advisable look over
other sites for the purpose of purchas-
ing, II it was thought best to change
the location. The committee during
the interim between the last meetin g
and the present time have been busy
attending to the duties imposed on
them. but it is not probable that any
statement will be given until the re-
port is made 10 the County Board at
the meeting in November. A number
of people think the cost of repairing
the present quarters would be waste
OF money, and they desire to purchase
new location and sell the present
farm. The sentiment among the
supervisors was about evenly divided
at the last session, and the chryStaliza-
tion OF this sentiment either for or
against will depend largely upon the
recommendations of the committee.
