Should TiIIman be Stopped?

Chicago Negroes made strenu
Gus efforts to prevent Senator
Tillman from speaking at Union
Hospital, on the presumed
grounds that his speech would be
incendiary and provoke race
troubles A committee of Ne
groes waited on the Hospital
authorities and had them change
the senator's subject from the
race question to Shall Cuba be
Annexed, . and the Negroes con-
tinued to clamor for curtail
ment of the engagement. We
are of the opinion that our peo-
pie should not be too radical nor
Iimitless in their agitationS-
they should be swayed by reason
and common sense. AS the hos
pital for whose benefit Senator
TilIman is to speak, opens it's
doors to ALL our people should
not let their imagination sub
merge their reason. Tillman's
SUBJECT has been changed as per-
the request of the Negroes, now
let them acquiesce.

A Social Decadence.

The young people seem to be

Our young people all seem TO be
in state of social lethargy.
: What is the matter with US? Most
of the balls given are on the free

sideratlons and of course, are
not what you would call a social
function We are not prepared
to focus this fault on any one
save we young people ourselves
We ought to be able to put on a
classical play occasionally with
the talent available here in this
city. We should organize our
society and have boundary lines
and limitatiOnS-even though
the lines be ''imaglnary. This
is no fault of the parents nor the
church, but the fault dear Brutus
is IN our stars.

MONTANA FLOODS
STILL A MENACE
Refugees From Other Towns
Pour By Hundreds Into

GREAT RESERVOIRS BREAK

HAVRE, mont. June 9.-The flood sit
uaton. while tho waters are growing
greater In volume, has. 80 far as the rail-
roads are concerned, been greatly re-
lievcd on the Montana division OF the
Great Northern through tho almost su-
perhuman efforts OF Superintendent c. o.

trains on tho line reached Hnvre from

The tracks at Assinniboine are still re-
ported three feet undor water, but en-
Gtneers arc Drawing the food and landing

proper food and shelter. The hotels and
lodging houses are full to overnowing
with what may bo called refugees.
Crowded for Room.
Men OF tho city arc giving up their
rooms to women and children. 1t is an
ticipated, however. that by noon toinor-
row tho whole trouble. so far as direct
railroad trouble, Will be arranged. Tho
Oriental Limited train, bound east, stalled
at Harlom, was pulled back TO Havro
this evening, and later started east, the
presumption being that affairs at Harlem
would present no great difficulties by tho
time OF the return. The Great Northern
railroad bulletin promises that three pas
sengcr trains west bound, two OF which
have tied up at Glasgow and the other
at Harlem, Will manage to reach Hayre
at 8 q. m. Sunday. each one-half hour
apart.
Harlem Is Surrounded.
At Harlem, where nearly all the reser-
Voirs broke and all the irrigation canals
are out of their banks. the wator Is rls-
ing and the city is simply In the middle
OF a sea OF unknown dimensions, though
the cutting OF track has given railway
officials confidence that they can take
trains on TO St Paul on tho still over
flowed tracks as tho precipitation seems
to have ceased.
