Louisville, KY, March 2-There
has been a general rejoicing in the
blue Grass State" over the recent
victory Of the republicans, which
brings to pass the prediction in your
strong democratic paper of January
Is, '08. Even the Nashville American
could see the disaster in snap prima-
Ties, conventions and unfair politics
as has been played in Kentucky for
the past several years. Tennessee
must have tasted a dose of the same
kind of medicine. The American said
"In the vote for Senator in the Ken
lucky Legislature yesterday, ex-Gov.
Beckham, the Democrat primary NOM
inee, failed of election by three votes.
This probably means his defeat"
The editor Of this paper foresaw
what was coming, as the election of
Ex-Governor Bradley to the United
States Senate by the Kentucky legis-
lature, defeating Ex-Governor Beck
ham, is regarded here as evidence that
the staunch democrats with the old
line republicans will join hands and
fight out the principles of manhood and
citizens right. The republicans will
wage their battle royal at the coming
state convention against certain ele
ments and factions that have tried to
SOW discord and corruption The true
republican party of this state has
never ignored the Negro vote. They
refuse to be dominated by the office
holders, and the coming convention
will be controlled by delegates chosen
by the people and not by paid lot Of
employees of the administration.
I While the state seems to be in favor
. of Indianas choice son, Vice President
+ Chas X. Fairbanks, it is evident they
Y are not hostile to Hughes or Cannon.
h There is one thing certain, there is no
r chance for a Taft endorsement. Not
n a county or district in the state has
S chosen a single Taft delegate, or in
o structed for him, while on the other
J. hand Hughes and Cannon have been
:. favored Should the other southern
It states prove as hostile to the war sec
e retary, his name will never be pre-
@ sented to the Convention, if the South
h is to be considered his stronghold. 1t
is but common that the Negro vote
It will line up with the conservative and
N Old line republicans in downing the
T. Roosevelt candidate" VIM. H. Taft
,e The tone of the republican papers
,e throughout the South has been hostile
,e to the administration choice, while
of all or most of the democratic papers
G have been in favor of him, devoting
r. column after column towards the ad
of vancement of his candidacy, which i.
ID evident that he is not such a stronl
n man with his party.

declining to entertain the Convention
was on account of the failing health
of the pastor of the Abyssinia Bap-
tist Church, who is Rev. Chas S. Nor
ris, D. D., who worked so hard to cap
ture the meeting; but this rumor has
not been verified. The various Boards
connected with the National Baptist
Convention will no doubt have an
early meeting, possibly in Nashville to
decide on this important question.
The Nashville ministers are pushing,
and it is likely that Nashville will be
strong candidate in the race, to have
the coming session, Notwithstanding
the State Convention and several AS
sociations will meet in the city this
year All of these meetings are diff
ferent, and possibly more burdensome
than the National Convention, because
in the National body, the delegates are
expected to defray their own expenses
and to pay their own board.

"The eyes of the blind shall be
opened" said the prophet Isaiah. A
reporter of this paper was astonished
the other day to see how completely
the skilled oculist can demonstrated
tho wisdom of this holy sage. BY
medical treatment and the adjust
ment of glasses, DR.. Roman, the
Colored Oculist and Aurist Of Nash
Vile, Tenn. transferred a little girl
from the blind school to the public
school
By a surgical operation, wonder
full in it's delicacy and minuteness,
he restored vision to woman who
had been led about for five years.
These and many other things which
the reporter learned quite accident
ally about Dr. Roman and his work

tonishment at the literal fulfillmen'
of the prophecy, "Then the eyes o.

Seldom has such heroic effort on

result in few minutes if the flow of
blood were not stopped Mrs. Charlton
therefore seized the blood vessels with
her own fingers and held them tightly

assault was the result of a stunt which
was termed play, and Louise Charlton
now lies at the City Hospital with her
head carved nearly off. She was cut

the streets win be one of the most august ever given by the order. Prob ably two hundred wearers of the Fex will be in line of march, Some VIII walk. others will ride camel-baek, eie- phant-back. horseback. Floats spe- cialiy adapted for the novftiates are ready. Some unique features will be introduced and the scene will be memorable one.
 Of the initiation nothing has been published of course. The suggestions of the horrors that await the candi- dates as they trudge across the burn Ing sands have been sinister, and just vague enough to arouse the most poignant fears of those who for the first time are marching through the unknown land. A prominent officer of the Shriners' Club said yesterday that the trials and tribulations in store for those who announce themselves ready to be proven are simply awful.
 Unusually elaborate plans have been made for the banquet after the initia- tion. It will close the day for the Shriners. M
 It was said yesterday that at least one hundred Shriners will come from Birmingham and that other cities and towns In the State will send large del egations.

Miss Wood Is either losing ground or reserving her votes for a time when 1t will be more important to be in the lead than at present, However. she will have all she can do to hold little Miss Smith down. as the latter has host of friends who are determined to see her win first prize. Miss Woods friends are aouaIIy determined. and the race between them will consequently be a most spirited one to the end
 The Mobile Menace.
 However. it Is not the rivalry be- tween Miss Smith and Miss Wood that is spurring them on to heroic efforts 50 much as the fear that Mss Williams of Mobile is going to overtake them and win first prize. Miss Williams continues to advance with giant strides. A gain of 22.000 yesterday brought her up to SS,00O. and another iunlp like that will bring her up to inc present level of Miss Smith. It is reallv beginning to look very serious for tbe Montgomery girls. The Mobil- ians would think it fine victory for a vounR lady from that city to win a S1 000 prize away from Montgomery. Ar her present rate of progress the Montgomery maidens who are striving SO valiantly for the automobile. may well be alarmed at the rapid headway being made by the Mobile belle. The time has come when the friends of Miss smith and Miss Wood must do their utmost to keep them in the lead, else the grand capital prize will go to Mobile.
