opinion, bases II on other grounds

Now, this decision means peace

Negroes Of the better sort do not

legos, The Southern states tax them
selves to educate the negroes; the
greater part of the support OF the
negro schools comes from tho white
mans taxes. There are many negro
institutions OF higher education in
the south
The policy OF the South toward
the negro is to educate him sepa-
rately; to give him all political
rights OF the Southern election laws
which disfranChise the ignorant
whites also, except the very few who
in some states vote under the
grandfather clause; to give him
justice in the courts and the equal
protection OF the law; TO give him
work; to help him and encourge him
in every way. treating him kindly,
but absolutely denying him social
equality and keeping the races sep
arato and apart in this respect sternly
depressing any attempt to Ignore the
color line.
Only in this way can the races live
peaceably together in the South. The
North has come TO recognize this.

hear from the negrophile trouble
makers, who do the negro much
harm in a spirit of mistaken phi
lanthropy.

INVALID SENATOR
APPEARS in COURT
SEQUEL TO SENSATION sulT.oF
MAE WOOD IS STARTED.

New York, June 29.--United States
Senator Thomas g. Platt was wheeled
in a chair into the grand jury room
In the criminal courts building today
to testify In the ase of Mae Q. Wood,
who Is charged with perjury in her
suit for allege ddivorce from the sen.
ator, which collapsed several weeks
ago.
Edward Roland, the senator's ex.
valet, and Edward q. Hafeley, q
printer, were also witnesses before
the grand jury today.
It was chiefly Mr.. Hafeley's evil
'dence which caused the failure Of the
woman's case against the senator and
brought aboutaher arrest. MI. Hafe-
ley printed the blank forms Of the
marriage certificate which Miss Wood
offered IN court filed out to prove
that she had been married to the sen
ator. He testified that the blanks
were not printed until after three
months after the date on which Miss
Wood alleged that she was married.
Mo action was taken today by the
jury. More witnesses will be
examined tomorrow.

sNuBBING EASTERN MONTANA.
It looks very much as though the
democratic delegates from eastern
Montana to the state convention,
which will convene in Bozeman to-
morrow, are scheduled for a snubbing.
There are several capable and promi.
ynent eastern Montana democrats who
are deserving of honors at the hands
OF the democrats who would like to
go to the convention, but it looks
very much as II they vii be turned
down. The contention Of this paper
that It IS not the intention Of the
democratic machine to give eastern
Montana any recognition is borne out
BY the Anaconda Standard OF last Sun
day, In which a list Of democrats
whose names will be presented to the
convention as candidates for dele
gates is printed. It reads Toole,
Walsh. Clark, Con Kelly, Tom Nc
Hague, Charles Hartman, Bob"

picion that they are purposely ignored.

OF the statements made Id the text

"a baby was once killed BY wash

that contains alcohol Is a poison to
hurt and at last to kill; a boy who

drinks such as root beer to children
an appetite for alcohol may be culti-

Of poorer quality and longer subjec-

Of wheat to the acre. In Austria and
Hungary the average was II bushels;
In France It was 1913, in Germany
PIG, and in the United Kingdom, 32.2

"The figures for barley, oats and
other crops show the same contrast.
As an Illustration of what can be
done here under intensive farming It
may be stated that In Yellowstone
county, Montana, the following yields
per acre have been secured: Wheat,
SO bushels; oats, 1853 bushels, and po-
tatoes, 1,213 bushels, while 1,420 tons

RUSSIAN JUSTICE.

Russian justice Is q travesty. The
innocent are convicted and the guilty
SO free. An example OF the style Of
Justice, which is meted out in Russia
is given in the report of the trial Of
rioters, who two years ago killed 73
Jews and injured 50 more IN Bialy-
STICK, Russia. In the trial the judges
gave credit to the reports Of Jewish
aggression. The public prosecutor de-
claredg that the Jews has Instituted a
1srein of terror" the evidence was de-
clared to be Contradictory" and
some Of It from the assertions Of the
officers Of the court was preposterous.
The strange thing about such a
trial Is the result. Under such pro-
cedure i was not to be expected that
anyone would be convicted. One. evi.
IDENTIFY so prominent in the slaughter
that his responsibility could not be
denied, was sent to prison for three
years, ID were sentenced to terms OF
2 year or less and is were acquitted,
Their could hardly be a more appaall-
ing evidence that sympathy with
murder and abuse Of the Jews en-
tended even to the judges and officers
OF the law than this deliberate effort
to minimize q wanton slaughter.
Such q trial as was given the MUIR
"A ~.
derers Of the Jews Is certainly q tray-
esty ON the name Justice. It reads
dike q story from the dark ages and
not news report OF a murder trial

a FOURTH WITHOUT NOISE,

4 E%aE-IWE - Te-SEff=. fttttH-l
The annual crop OF editorials
lagainst the shooting Of Are crackers,
the making Of noise and the celebra-
ltion Of Fourth Of July in the good old
fashioned way is being harvested. The
near approach Of independence. day
has called forth scores OF editorials
on the d%esirability of a sane and
safe Fourth" The editorial writer's
seem to want the small boy to cut out
the crackers the toy pistol, the tor
pedo, the fire works and those things,
which made the Fourth the delight Of
ltheir own boyish hearts, a generation
ago. Such editors evidently forget
that they yer onc boys, who en-
joyed the pleasures OF a real live boy.
II they had not been real boys, boys
who loved the Fourth and enjoyed her
customary pleasures, they would not
have developed into men capable Of
writing editorials or holding positions
where they could advocate a sane
and safe Fourth"
Probably at times there is need Of
curbing the noise on the Fourth. But
as for eliminating it and depriving the
small boy aof the pleasures enjoyed
when we were boys, well, we don't
believe in it. Why, the fire cracker,
the torpedo, the toy pistol and the
customary noise and fire makers
used on the Fourth are as dear to the
American boy as any time honored
custom patriotism has established.
Editorial writer's may urge against
the fire cracker, but it will be in. vain,
for it will prove an. impossibility to
wipe out by legislation, editorials or
otherwise the observance of the
Fourth of July in the good old fash
toned way.
As for US. We hope every boy in.
America can have his fire crackers
and celebrate the Fourth of July as.
we delighted to observe 1t and as we
hope patriotic instinct may cause his
children to want to celebrate it in the.
future.
