representative of the womanhood OF
our state. Woman has always been
a most potent factor in all conditions
of civilization, they have taken an in.
telligent part in forming the annals
OF our country. In war and in peace
in sunshine and in shadow, in Joy
and in sorrow, woman has been the
inspiration of all that is best in its
history. Your presence here suggests
to me the home. 1t is your part to
preserve the home-to preserve lis
sweetness. its purity. In all this bright
southland, from north to south and
from east to west, it is by you that the
homely virtues are nourished and ten

OF our children; the little ones who
are the inheritance of the bravery

you make our lives.
Il welcome you, also, as Daughters
of the Confederacy. Yours is proud
heritage heritage as daughters OF
heroes Should this fair country OF
ours ever become a monarchy, here
will be found an order OF nobility al

ity could be desired than can be
drawn from the ranks of those men
who marched to glory with Stonewall

fire with ]. E. B. Stuart; who sailed
into the foreign waters of the Atlantic
and the Pacific with Admiral Semmes,
and sat upon the deck of the Alabama

home and loved ones; who died to
win the appreciation or that pureSt,
best and greatest man who ever lived
General Robert Z. Lee? 1t makes no
difference that this new order of no
bility would be poor as the world
counts wealth. They are the inherit
Ors of those better riches which are
theirs forever-of truth, principle and
honor.
But this glorious republic of ours
will never be a monarchy. The names

These charges are untrue. We simply

years when our fathers laid down
their lives for what they believed
to be the right. We love to feel on one
day OF the year, that family touch
of kinship as We gather around those
spots hallowed by sacred traditions Of
that mighty struggle in which our
fathers died. When, as little boy,
my mother led me TO that far-off spot
in Virginia where lay the remains OF
my father removed from the battle
field of Ga,nes's Mill. she did not
speak to me of hatred. She spoke of
fathers love of honor, and his devo-

ARKANSAS WILL GET
 S313.68 FROM FORESTS

Washington. Aug. 19-Figures just made public by the Forest Service show that under the new law requir- ing 23 per cent of the gross proceeds of national forest business to be paid over to the States and Territories in which the forests are located to be used on public schools and roads, the last fiscal year will yeild these States $447 ,06379. The amounts which go to each vary from $313.6S for Arkan- sas to more than $75,O00 for Montana. The small amount for Arkansas is because the two national forests in that State were created so recently that they have not yet got fairly un- der way. Oklahoma, with one small national forest, receives $554; Kan sas $664, and the smallest after these is Nebraska, with $2,250.

With a negro committeeman Muskogee
 county will be mill on the management i of party affairs in the state.
 "A still more humliating circum-
 stance is the nomination of negro
 for the legislature in Logan county,
 the county in which the state capital | is located. And the white Republi- cans of that legislative district will either have to vote the Democratic ticket Or elect a negro to represent
 them in the legislature. If there is
 one thing above all others that will
 cause the state legislature to promote plan to move the capital away from Guthrie it will be the presence of a negro in the legislature.
 There are nineteen of the seventy five counties of the state that have less than 100 negro population. There are thirty-three that have over 1000 negroes, five that have over 5000. Muskogee county leads them all with 11,773 There are two counties that have no negroes at all, Harper and side. Ottawa county has only three negro voters and there is not town in the county where strange negro can remain all night There are only three in Adair county, and Delaware claims a like number.
 Ut is in the counties where the negroes have population of over 1000 that they are giving the poli- ticians trouble on primary nomina tions, for the negroes all vote, no mat ter whether it is a primary Or a gen. eral election. Their work in the pri- maries is more effective because such a small percent of the white voters get out. Prominent Republican leaders fear that unless they find some way to eliminate the negro vote Tn the pri- maries their party organization will be entirely broken up"
 From this it will be seen that the party which has fondled the negro and made much of him for motives purely selfish finds itself in the power Or at least threatened-by Frank enstein, and if the revolting monster accOmplishes its own and it's creators destruction it will be but repetition of history and much in the nature of a just retribution

AMERICA NOW HAS
 FASTEST CRUISERS

London, Aug 19-In commenting upon the steam trials of the three American scout cruisers, the Birm- ingham, Chester and Salem, the naval expert of the London Times says that as matters stand the United States na- wy possesses for the moment the two swiftest, most powerfully armed, and best sea-keeping scout cruisers afloat in the Chester and the Salem. He says that the Chester and Salem are fitted at full power, were we'll illustrated in the trials, and that the turbines gave an increase of 1.62 knots in speed and in indicated horsepower of nearly 5,600, or about 36 per cent, with small economy in coal con- sumption.

FRANkENSTEIN. N.

The Graphics attitude toward the negro in politics is amply justified by the facts, and events now current go far toward proving the soundness of the Graphic's views on the question. Late adyices from Springfield, H., lave a tendency to show that the de- r'orable state of affairs now eXtant in that city is due almost wholly to desire on the part of the white popu- lation to eliminate the negro from matters polite. The sentiment which inspired this fearful outbreak is un- questionably commendable, but the method of it's manifestation can not be approved by sane public. Illinois, when in state of idiotic frenzy, de- clared that all men were equal, and admitted to it's most sacred councils a race which dwelt in darkness and saVagery for unnumbered wears. and but for the magic touch of the worlds highest civilized influence would still be wearing it's gee-strings and count ing its wealth by the number of grin ming souls in it's hut of reeds and oyfh made to suffer, and We have no doubt that when the unsettled conditions in that state reach final adjustment the two races will occupy their proper relative positions and the superior race will come into its own.
 Oklahoma is also having it out with itself upon this question of equality and the following dispatch to the Ft. Smith Southwest American from Mus kogee not only sustains the Graphic $ position but fully explains the cond- tions existing in that state:
 
 The primary system of nominating candidates for state and county of- fees has proved distinct shock to the Republicans of the state, because of the power it has shown the negro voters to possess. This is evidenced in the election of Archie V. Jones, a negro, as a member of the Republican state committee from Muskogee coun- ty over w. C. Franklin, a prominent young lawyer. This places the Repub- licans of Muskogee county in a very awkward position Muskogee city and county are supposed to be Republican and Muskogee is the second city and Muskogee county the second county in population in the state, and up to this time has been an important element In the affairs of the Republican party

 Maggie Ryan had slept or tried to sleep on the hard. bare confines of the matron's room. Usually dogs-real. for sure dogs-are not admitted to the sta ton. but something in the womans $ wistful face caused the matron to let this little dog in. He curled up con- tentedly at the foot of the hard cot where the woman lay. And when she got up in the night and paced the room he walked at her side.
 In the morning the woman divided her rough breakfast with the spaniel. He was q hungry little dog.
