impedimenta like Byron's marriage are
role gated to the background where they
will do least harm, and the brilliant life

Of romance, which, like yesterdays dis

WOMEN UNFIT TO VOTE.
Marie CoreIi Scores Herr lex for

Chicago.-A special from London to

Marie Corelli through her profound
contempt for man in every aspect re-
mains undiminished, does not beleve
in woman suffrage. She claims that
she can direct so mems votes at cleo
ton in any way she schooses, but her
power would be destroyed if she had
a vote of her own
eff" she says, woman has the nat
ural heritage of her sex, the mystic
power to persuade, enthrall and subJu-
gate man. she has no need to come
down from her throne to mingle in any
of his political trays"
She scores women remorselessly for
allowing herself to be given away in
fashion papers.
There" she says, man sees woman
as the fool rampant She is depicted
as semibald.. holding her wig in one
hand, ready to put it on. She is shown
| in half nude state, thin and scraggy,
but again unbIushingly holds artln-
cialIy nodded plump portions of her
bcdy. which nature failed to supply,
| in readiness to fasten over the hollow
places. She is exhibited plainly and
pililessly as a swindle.
do women imagine that men ever
look at such papers? Never perceive
the bold, prominent challenge of the
degraded advertisement which in

left to work out its problem in its own
way, subject only to three amendments
to the constitution. There is little dis
position to interfere with the work.
The proposition to reduce southern
representation in congress on account
Of the disfranchisement Of ignorant
negroes receives no popular support
anywhere In the country.
The south has free hand. Every
state has a white mans government.
Every state has full power to enact
such laws as 1t pleases, provided they
do not conflict with the constitution Of
the United States. The administration
Of the law is entirely in the hands Of
the whites. Such negroes as happen
to be Federal officers do not and cannot
interfere with the liberties Of the
whites. For all practical purposes the
southern states have their white mans
government as firmly established as
they had during the period Of slavery,
and the north Is well content that 1t
should be so. There Is not the faint
est glimmer of a possibility that any
state in the Union will ever again be
subjected to negro rule.
Then why all this hysteria? Why
these persistent and un-American ef-
forts to fan the flames Of a natural
race antipathy and bring on all the
horrors and terrors OF race war?
Does Senator Tillman think the south
is too prosperous and that life and
property are already too secure? Does
he believe the south would be better
and happier IL the streets Of every city
and village and the roads OF every
township ran red with the blood of
white men and black men locked in a
deathgrapple?
With all due respect to Senator Till
man. the World Is curious to know
what useful purpose he can possibly
think he is serving.-New York World.
Yorkville enquirer. [volume] (Yorkville, S.C.) 1855-2006, 1906-11-30

SENATOR Tillman is quoted as saying
that President Roosevelt transcende6
the law in discharging the negro SOL
diers, the innocent along with the
guilty. 1t is quite probable, Of course
that the senator may have been mis-
quoted, but II not we are inclined to
think that he is mistaken. In this par
ticular case civil law would have been
practically helpless. With the accused
and their friends and associates refusing
to testify there would have been nc
way to get at the facts. But with
military law 1t is different. The COM
mander- in chief has the power and au-
thority to use his discretion. The
president became satisfied as the result
of investigation that the negroes were
guilty and that they would not tell
what they knew. There Is nothing
wrong in the action he took and had
he acted otherwise he would have made
a grave mistake. If any Of the negroes
should be able to prove their innocence
by facts it would be nothing but right
to reinstate them and the probability
is that this is what would be done. But
as matters stand the burden Of proof as
very properly on the discharged ne
groes. If the president reverses him
self in the light of further facts, there
will be no just ground for criticism.
But If he should yield to the mere
clamor that is being raised by the ne
groes throughout the country and to
their friends he will be deserving only
Of contempt.

address he has made on a commercial
topic since his return from South
America has contained a part in earn
est advocacy of the payment by the
government of ship subsidies. He says
II will strengthen materially our rela-
tions with foreign countries, particu-
larly those of South and Central Amer
lea, and, inasmuch as the United
States Is to control the Panama canal,
he believes 1t highly important that
our merchant marine be put on assured
bottoms by the payment Of subsidies.
Senator Frye Of Maine, will champion
the measure In the senate and indica-
tions are that 1t may have less trouble
in that body than in the house. How
ever, II is understood that Speaker
Cannon, who hitherto has been opposed
to the legislation, will no longer stand
In its way and that he will carry with
him several other western members
who have opposed 1t in the past. In
any event and whatever may be the
outcome, the fight for the subsidy
measure promises to be one Of the
most interesting and important Of the
approaching session. .-..
