LECTURE PLANS
Dauphin Institute Preliminary
Committee Holds
Meeting

In the rooms Of the Delaware His
torical Society yesterday afternoon the
preliminary committee on organization
of the Dauphin Institute movement in
this city met to discuss plans for for
NAL organization in this city.
The committee is; Henry c. Conrad,
A. r. spaid, w. f. Douglas, DR.. w. l.
S. Murray, Or. James l.. France. w.
w Knowles, Caleb r. Berchinal, J. w.
Lattomus. j. w. Riddle, Jr., Arthur A.
Wilmot, T. Leslie Carpenter. Profess
sor A. r. Spaid, a well-known educator
and laborer along this line. was elected
chairman. w. +. Douglas was made
secretary and w. w. Knowles treas
urer.
The Dauphin Institute is designed to
constitute an organized system of edu
cation for the adult. It's work is con-
Quoted principally through lectures de-
livered by eminent educators from uni
versities. Wilmington is fortunate in
having the use Of the High School au-
dltorium for this purpose, which seats
about 1900 persons.
The movement will open its work the
first week of October, When PROFESSOR
Jerome II. Raymond will begin with a
preliminary series on European Capt.
tails and Their Social Significance" His
subjects are:
/ Constantinople; Despotism and Dis
integration; st. Petersburg; Autocracy
and Nihilism; Vienna; Feudalism and
| Democracy; Berlin: Militarism and
Socialism; Paris: Nationalism and
Liberalism; London: Imperialism and
/ Progressivism. Each lecture of the
course is fully illustrated with fine
collection Of hand-colored stereopticon
views
This course may be followed by a
further series of three lectures by
Professor Zueblin on "A Decade OF
civic Improvement." dealing with
oThe New Civic Spirit" "The Training
Of the Citizen" and "The Making OF

which desires to control the Legislature and TO
strengthen their grip on the city III they-suc~
ceed it will be only because of the indifference
OF the voters No voter unless he is brbed with
money or with favors of some sort, or with allur-
ing promise for Office, will announce that he is
or would support a corporation mnion or an adj
vocate of domination by the plundefing public
service corporations. See how quickly Mr.
James Austin Ellison. former empoye Of the Gas
Company, tried to wrggle form beneath the lash
OF the Boss Syndicate. He was quick to dsavow
that he was a stool pigeon of the bosses because
he thought he would lose votes thereby
Ine Syndicate Doss, however, thought it would
be to their advantage to raise a scarecrow that
his opponent was somebody elses man. Syndi-
cate bosses always work by that method. They
never subject themselves to direct attacks. They
are sly, cunning and careful because in such
ways most of the bosses of the syndicate stripe
secure their personal wealth
The whole question before the voters to-mor-
row in this case is whether the Syndicate Boss
shall be permitted to triumph. THE EVEN
ING JOURNAL. is opposed to the coterie that is
forming into a syndicate boss not because OF per-
sonal feeling against the individuals who COM
pose the Syndicate Boss or the ring, but because
we are unalterably against corporation rings, no
matter who may be in them The election to-
morrow will decide whether the bosses are to pre-
vail in the Third Representative District or
whether a man shall be nominated who will not
bow the knee to the Syndicate Boss.

RnssEs oF ALL SORTS.

EAREFUL observers of the developments in
- New York Republican politics attribute
the nomination of Charles +. Hughes for Gov
ernor to the wishes of President Roosevelt. The
nomination of the insurance prober and the 80
cent gas man, was indeed very gratifying to the
President and his message of congratulation
plainly evidenced that the Chief Magistrate was
in sympathy with the movement that resulted in
the selection of Mr.. Hughes. His nomination
was stern rebuke for the would-be bosses of
the Republican party in New York and a victory
for honesty and fair dealing 1t was a triumph
for the fearless and for the right
Upon what basis after all rests the power of a
political boss whether that boss be an individ-
ual or a syndicate of individuals working in har-
mony for one common purpose, that purpose al
ways being plunderl
The power OF boss rests in nine cases out Of
ten upon the assistance given him by corpora
TONS usually public service corporations. In re-
turn these corporations estort from the indvid-
ual boss or the Syndicate Boss favors in the form
of contracts for work or for favoritism in taxes.
In this State, but more especially in Wilmington,
we have a set OF individuals who are trying to
form themselves into a syndicate boss. No in
dividual of them is strong enough or has sufE-
Client audacity to appear before the public and
announce that he is the boss of Wilmington or Of
Delaware. But number of them pool their is
sues and form themselves openly into syndicate

SHOULD DRIVE THEM our.

AT DESIRE TO commend Judge Cochran
w for the very positive stand he has taken
in regard to the disorderly houses OF this city
His formal announcement from the bench that
they will have to go and the city must be kept
clean of such places is distinct victory for de-
cency, good morals and law and order, if his or
ders will only be carried out and those who de-
file our city be made to respect his decree
For a long time it was supposed that the keep
ers of these places were being protected by those
who had the power to drive them out of the city,
but now that Judge Cochran has announced that
his court will take firm and unyielding stand n
regard to these places, there is every reason to
believe that there will be from now on a smaller

The Southern Race Riots.


Editor The Evening Journal.
The American people, as exponents
Of civilization, We're very Indignant at
the Russian outrages. Now, in At
lanta, they have smirched themselves
with the same disgrace Some violent
negroes have committed crimes OF a
fiendish nature which resulted in the
killing OF many innocent ones Of their
race by the whites. We have laws
providing for the prosecution Of the
vicious; laws made by men Of high
standing.
In the light Of justice there is never
cause for numbering the peaceable.
In every instance a race riot makes a
whole community suffer for a part. The
negro question I'm this country is not a
trine. Time and experience has proved
the impossibility of two races Of such
opposite colors to exist without preju-
dice. The white race, as superior
one in civilization and intellect, exer-
cises that superiority freely. which
seems a natural instinct with human
kind. II is in conformity with the
scientific theory OF creation and exist
ence. The smallest offense OF negro
may spread great excitement among
the whites. But why not ask If the
Caucasian race is as clean Of crime
AS a greater elevated people, what car
they show in that matter? Ali this
is never thought Of. Why should the
unfortunate be made miserable for the
offensive2 The law must take It's
course; the question Of right ant
wrong must be debated in the court
and rioting must not be resorted to
but let prosecution be effected as Is
provided Respectfully
