|heen suggested that this can be done
through the Governors OF the south
ern states. If not hrougn them
through the cooperation OF the repre-
sentative educational Institutions IN
the .south. and IL not through them
though the unta association OF
a large number of influential citi-
zens. When ii is Accomplished Il VIII
be found that there Is q general de-
sire for agreement awaiting the toucn
of opportunity. and that there u I'M
der the froth of agitation ana variant
individual opinion q sense
and a common will that can be ascer-
tanned and pronounced, n that there
Is in a land and among a people as re-
sponsive as ours To the standards of
the Christian gospel and conscience 10
support a program Of basal righteous
ness.
The situation OF the negroes now af-
ter fort years brings about he same
issue hat was present in the period
between emancipation and disfran-
chisement. In Georgia at that time
the white man, through their Legs
Iaturc Of 1866, passed a special series
OF laws defining the status and pro-
yiding an understanding for the freed
men. These laws were born u OF 4
high regard for truth and righteous
ness. and their effect at the time upon
the negroes Of Georgia was altogether
good. The negro is now in the S0utn
neither a slave nor a voter.
Is there no appeal in this historical
recurrence to thoughtful SOutherners
for a movement to promote something
thai lies in the direction Of a South
ern program? What have we to fear?
viii the North object? The best men
of the North are waiting for the South
to do something constructive. VIII
the negroes resent it? ON the contrary
the negroes would be greatly treasured
if the best sentiment of the South
could get expression and the lines OF
their limitations laid down inteiligentiy
and definitely. A Southern program
would clear the air, promote conf
dence, and discourage confusing dis
cussion, issue the influence of re-
straint upon the lawlessness of ire
sponsible white people, and ten TO
draw them into the ranks of orderly
citizenship. 1t would create an era
Of currents instead of the present era
of eddies. A period of construction
instead Of our period of confusion. 1t
would lay down a line in sympathy
with which the press, the pulpit and
the people would begin to hew with
definite intent. 1t is a movement that
must be realized.

rights in connection with these ques-
tons, by the people who know that
the States can not with justice to
both sides practically control the cor
pOratiOns, and who therefore advocate
such control because they do not ven

is that there shall be no control at all.
Honest and fair dealing railway cor

who invoke the doctrine Of State
rights to protect State corporate crea-
tons in predatory activities extended
through other States are as short
sighted as those who once invoked the
same doctrine to protect the special
s~laveholding interest. The States have
shown that they have not the ability
to curb the power of syndicated

of the people, it must be done By ma

OLDEST OF LIVING TREES,

One of the sixty Species Known "a
BE 2,1G5 Years Old.
This bo tree (the ficus religiosa) ID
probably the oldest living thing in the
world Of which record has been kept
by man, and, with the possible excep-
ton of the sequoia, the Oldest of living
trees, says the Century. 1t was brought
from India by the Princess Sangha-
militia, and was planted by King De
wananpiya Tissa in 2s8 B. G. It is
therefore 2,195 years old. The preser.
walton iof this tree has been an object
of reverent solicitude to- successive dy-
nasties and either through superstitious
reverence or because Of its worthless
ness to plunderer, 1t has been spared
amid all the havoc Of repeated inva-
sions- AS recently as "a. D. 1T29 1t
was endowed with lands by Kaja
Sinah, Kandian chief.
The DO trees age and identity are
matters Of absolutely faithful record
and when one recalls that In the rig
orous climate Of northern Germany, In
Hildeshelm, there grows rose bush
which is, 1000 years old. 1t does not
seem SO remarkable that in the balmy
climate of Ceylon this tree should have
lived twice as long. 1t Is gnarled and
unsymmetrical, because many Of Its
branches have been cut off and sent
to distant temples. This DO tree Is
a branch of the tree under which Gau-
tama Buddha sat when he attained
Nirvana and BuddhistsS say the pas
sion through which he passed COM
municated itself to the tree and caus-
ed all the leaves to tremble.
Each Of the millions Of pilgrims
who have toiled along the sacred way
which leads to this shrine has hoped
to bear away with him leaf from
the sacred tree, and happy is he at
whose feet one falls.
The leaves hang on slender stem
and are easily stirred by the slightest
breeze, so each petitioner is rewarded
for his pilgrimage by feeling that the
tree responds to the fervor Of his soul ;
but few take home a leaf. Many bring
offerings to the tree and on a number
of the lower leaves are sheets OF gold
placed there by jewellers and other
wealthy worshipers.

ssHurrah.O


The history Of many race may be
Of the Japanese, the "Faghaghballah I"
of the Irish, and our own "Hurrah -
have found their origin far back in
history.
Although many authorities have de-
clared that the word '"hurrah" Is de-
velopment of the Jewish "Hosannah,"
the consensus of opinion now Is that 1t
Is corruption Of the ancient battle
cry of the wild Norsemen, "Tur ale !"
meaning, 'Thor aid us" Formerly the
word was spelled "Huzza" and pro-
nounced Murray" In one form or
another 1t Is used by almost every
nation.

SECOND WIFE MUST BE DUMB.

Widower Says No. Kept Her
Tongue Going Every Hour.
A twelve months trial of life as
widower has proved unsatisfactory to
Roger Manchester and he Is looking for
a second wife, but the requirement Is
such as to make the search difficult,
says the Pine Ridge Is. d. correspond
emit of the New York World. His first
wife was an interminable talker, and,
he says, her chatter was continuous
from the time she arose in the morning
until bedtime.
Manchester says the woman he seeks,
and he will take no other, must be
without the power of speech, but she
may have her hearing; he would pre-
fer her that way. He began his search
two months ago and has even Travelled
all over the State In his quest. Dumb
women, he says, are not at all plenti-
full. He wrote to several matrimonial
agencies setting forth his needs and
begging them to send him at once the
names and addresses of as many dumb
women Of marriageable age as they
had listed, SO that he might place him
self In communication with them and
make choice.
At the time they received his letter
the matrimonial agencies had no dumb
women listed, but they have promised
to make a diligent effort to supply him
with tbs names Of some, and he Is
now waiting with as much patience as
he can command, to hear from them
further.
Manchester Is reticent man. some
where in the forties, Is well to do and
Is fairly attractive in physical aspect
and In manners. He admires good
looks In woman and he says he hopes
the woman he WEEDS may be comedy.
He likes sweet, sunny temper also,
and he expresses the hope that bis
second wife may be of sweet. sunny
temper.
