TO that enjoyed by great number Of
persons at the North.
Take the State of South Carolina
Tor example, where there are 500 900

cans. In that state Afro Americans are
not allowed to vote, and the result is
that the 100000 whites there exercise.

power as do 100000 persons in Illi-
nois. III. 1-s..11 :
Now, it is mere commonplace to
state that such condition is a tray-
esty on representative government. If
that order Of things continues. the
time will not be long before the liber-
ties OF the people, white as we'll as
black, will be disregarded. Such
government may be administered in

IN any sense, be said to be. free. The

"SOUTHERN MELODIES"
PRESIDENT ROOSEVELT.

The Charleston News and Courier
reproduces the valedictory address of
young lady delivered at the com
mencement OF one of the prominent
schools of South Carolina, whose sub
ject was Southern Melodies"
1t is really a very excellent address
and very credible to the young lady,
so far as rhetorical finish is concerned.
She divides these melodies into three
classes: war songs, plantation songs
and love songs, and mentions some of
each class. The war songs are: ''My
Maryland Bonnie Blue Flag" and
Dixie of which only the first is
really a Southern song.
In treating of the plantation SONGS.
the young lady is. historically, much
ftrther astray. She mentions "Old
Black Jce,' Uncle Ned" and .'Suwanee
Ribber, not one of which is South
ern melody or Southern song. but
which are the composition of Stephen
Collins Foster. who was born in the
North. lived in the North and died in
the North. and never lived in the
South at ALL
Foster was born at Allegheny, Pa,
July a. 1926 and died in New York in
1864. He composed Uncle, Ned, in
1S47, "Massa's in de cold cold ground"
in 1852 and "Suwanee Ribber'' in 1851.
and "Old Black Joe" in 1860. So the
last song was composed only three
years before slavery was abolished.
The following picture. drawn. by the
young lady, is all imagination

thought can be conveyed. I speak

myself. We do not care what methods
are needed to prevent a calamity
which appears to be impending; what
ever they are, those methods will be
taken
Now it will be observed that the
mob which Mr.. Ough has organized
ready for business is interfering, not
only with the Afro-American pur.
chasers, but with the white sellers. an
interference with legitimate traffic
which the President has already re-
buked and thing over which the
country has been agitated for several

plantation with their many Negro
slaves, those were happy days. In the
evenings when work was over the

near and gather around the cabin of
Aunt Chloe and Uncle William. The

begin. Chloe's sweet voice would
float over the corn fields and would
be joined in the chorus by that of
William and the rest of their friends.

And for Twenty Years he was chair.
man OF the Committee Having that
Subject in Charge and Worked
Faithfully on it.

Senator Cullom's early senatorial
career was brought most prominently
before the public through his introduc-
ton and championship Of the inter
state commerce bill.
The relation between the people AMI
the common carriers was a subject II
which Senator Cullom had long before
his election to the Senate taken an
active interest.
lie came TO the bar at time when
the corporation, as an institution. was
IN it's infancy. No man at that time
dreamed OF the wondrous growth
which the years of the future would
give it. Important questions with res
pect to vast aggregations of capital
were unsettled. Corporation law, as
such, was waiting for the construction
to be given it by the judges like
Drummond and Harlan and the Sup
rene Court of the United States
The relation between the common
carrier and the people was equally an
unsettled question: and the Senator
early began the study of this import
ant branch of the law.
In the los with the so-caiied granger
legislation and the construction of
State laws for the control of railroad
transportation, began the discussion
which is still before the national Con.
gress as one of the live issues of the
day. During all this time Senator Cullon7
has stood in the front rank in this i'm
pOrtant work.
| AS Speaker of the Illinois House OF
Representatives, he appointed com
mittee of the Lower House of the Ill
inois Legislature. which drafted the
necessary amendments to perfect an6
strengthen the first Illinois law on thu
! subject; and the law as amended b,
this Legislature, stands as the Illinois
law today, and probably goes as fal
as a state can constitutionally e
| toward the regulation of common
carriers
AS Governor he appointed the Iii
pois Railroad and Warehouse Com
mission, which tested the new law ant
put it into practical operation
/ Senator Cullom secured the passa e.
of the present interstate commerc,
law, and for nearly twenty years h,
was chairman of the committee hav
ing the subject in charge.
