But Of course the p1otters can not see it
that way. Hoke Smith and Boykin Wright
will never forgive the leaders of those who
brought the p1otters to grief. Hence the con-
tinual nagging at Joe Brown hence the con-
tinual abuse and misrepresentation of Wat
son and hence the underhanded work against
the primary of June 4, 1908.
In spite of all this malice and mean1ess,
however we confidently expect to see the peo-
pie of Georgia rise above all appeals to political
passion and prejudice. Our future welfare de-
ponds upon the sacred observance Of good faith
in standing by the White Primary and it's
nominees.
Insidious attempts have likewise been made
against the Dsfranchisement law. When
Hoke Smith slipped that amendment through
the legislature this year, changing the law of
last year, and postponing the date at which
the law should go into effect to January +,
1ooo-whereas the law as passed last year pro-
vided that it should go into effect in October,
1oo8-his obvious purpose was to give the ne
groes at least one more chance to dictate to the
whites.
If the white voters should desire to throw
the electoral vote of Georgia to native Geor-
gian, they will not be able to do it unless they
can overcome the negro vote which Hoke's
recent amendment invites to the polls
By the compact of 1906 put into law in 1907,
the negroes were not to vote in the November
election of 1908.
After Hoke was defeated at the June pri-
mary this year, and after Watson entered the
race for President, Hoke changes the law and
brings the negroes back, to control the whites
But Notwithstanding this phenomenal piece
of bad faith repudiated contract and spite,
we urge every one Of our friends to vote for
the disfranchisement amendment.
Let us keep Our word, although the other
fellow doesn't keep his. Let us do what we
think is best for the state, sinking every per-
sOnal consideration into that.
When Hoke brings the negroes back to the
polls, by his change of the law and contract
he does harm to the state, but he hopes to
taste the sweets of revenge on Watson.
Bah! How childish.
Watson will take the nobler revenge. of
standing by the contract which Hoke has VIC
lated-for the simple reason that he will there
by do good service to the state.

THE CHILDREN,s HOME.
Annual Meeting and Election of SUI
perintendent and Directors.

f>'A0Os..9
perintendent and Directors.
Sioux Falls, S. D., July 18.-Con-
siderable business of interest to the
people of the state in general was
transacted during the annual busi-
ness meeting of the board of direc-
tors of the South Dakota Children's
Home society, which has Just been
held in this city.
w. B. Sherrard, founder of the
Children's home and for the past
fifteen years the head of the insti-
tuition, rendered his resignation, but
the board refused to accept it. The
resignation was due to the failing
health of Superintendent Sherrard,
who is one of the best children's
home managers in the country. The
directors were very anxious that he
continue at the head of the insti-
tuition and he was unanimously re-
elected to the position which he has
filled so well for so many years, the
directors promising MIN they would
have him relieved of much of the
routine work. ~
The following officers were elected
for the coming year: President, Geo.
Schlosser, Sioux Falls; vice presi-
dent, Col. Thomas H. Brown, Sioux
Falls; secretary-treasurer, Mrs. A.
,Beveridge, Sioux Falls; scribe, ]. J..
Allen, Sioux Falls. Seven members
for the directorate board of twenty
one were elected for terms of three
years, as follows: Rev. J. o. Dobson,
Mitchell; R. L. Brown, Aberdeen; r.
P. Peck, Sioux Falls; Mrs. A. Bever-
idge, Sioux Falls; DR.. A. Zetlitz,
Sioux Falls; l.. D. Hetland, Valley
Springs.
Rt.- Rev. William Hobart Hare,
Episcopal bishop of South Dakota,
presented his resignation for the re-
mainder of the term as one of the
directors, giving i'll health as his rea-
son, and George A. Pettigrew, Of
Sioux Falls, was elected to fill the
vacancy. Rev. w. H. Thrall, of
Huron, also resigned as member
of the board of directors because of
his inability to attend the board
meetings, and E. ]. Miller, of Miller.
was elected his successor.
The matter of a new residence
building at the children's home was
taken up during the meeting, and
it was decided to erect the building.
A committee was appointed with au-
thority to arrange for the erection
Of the new structure, which will be
conducted in close proximity to the
state home.

There will be Several to Come Up
Aside from Other Questions
at the Election.
The voters of South Dakota will
be called to vote upon two constitu-
tional amendments at the November
election. One is in relation to in
creasing the salary of the attorney
general from $1,000 to $1,000 per
year, which places that official on a
par with the other state officials.
It was four years ago that the same
question was submitted to the voters
but they voted 1t down. The
chances are that this state OIL

One of the five cannot qualify on
account OF being a member of the
town board, another refuses to quail
fly, while the third does not want to
do so. The school district will be
greatly handicapped by the fact
that the school board does not con-
tain a majority and is unable to
transact business. The tax levy for
the enuing year remains to be made,
and this cannot be done by anyone
