Urgent Requests
from Asotin

In compliance with an urgent
request from the citizens of
Asotin, the Washington State
College Club will continue it's
session of activities this year
and will make a trip at the close
of the present week to Idaho,
where engagements have been
made for Lewiston and for Aso-
tin.
The club will leave Pullman
Friday morning, playing at Lew
iston on that night and at Asotin
on Saturday night. This trip
will be taken in addition to the
ten days tour of the state which
was just completed by the glee
club a little more than a week
ago.
In addition to the concert part
of the pogram, which will con-
sist of a number of glees, a solo
by Mrs. Kuria Strong, soprano,
piano solo by Prof. Karl E.
Tunberg and voilin solo by
either Prof. Lionel Gittelson or
William Charles, an opperetta
will be given by the club. The
piece being played this year met
with great success during the
recent trip. The name of it is
1.-The Doll, " an adoption by Prof.
W. B. Strong, director of the
glee club, from the famous
German opera known as die
Puppe." Rehersals will be con-
tinued daily throughout the pre-
sent week and a more finished
program will no doubt be pre-
sented at Lewiston and at Asotin
than at any of the towns where
the club has appeared this year.

Glee Club Draws
Crowded House

man auditorium on Wednesday
night of last week, following the
return of the organization from
a ten days tour of the state. The
fame of the club was well known
here even before the first APP
pearance and the student body
and a great many townspeople
turned out with a great deal of
enthusiasm.
In spite of the fact that many
of the young men had not yet
recovered from colds contracted
on the trip, the concert was a
spledid one and great credit is
due Prof. w. B. Strong, director
of the club, for the manner in
which he has turned out such a
good club this year. Prof.
Strong has given the young men
a program of sufficient variety
to keep up interest. Such pieces
as the Pilgrims Chorus from
Tannhauser, the Lost Chord"
occupy prominent places on the
program while the encores are
responded to by lighter things
such as Moon Man., the
Sword of Uncle SAM" 1.-THE
Monks of st. Sebastion" etc.
The concert part of the program
opened with the singing of the
college song. the words of which
were written by F. F. Nader
and the music by Prof. Strong.
In addition to the glee num-
bers Mrs. Strong rendered a
beautiful soprano solo, respond
ing to hearty encore. Prof. Karl
E. Tunberg's solo brought forth
some finished work, showing
that Prof. Tunberg's five years
of study abroad have made him
an excellent musician. Owing
to the illness of Prof. Lionael
Gittelson, Will Charles, one of
the members of the glee club,
rendered a violin solo in his
stead, receiving a merited
encore.
THE Fashion Plate Trio" sup
piled little diversion by giving
a humorous bit of nonsense,
mixed in with a few fancy steps.
The MONS de plume of the
members are Dick (Cawkins)
Jones, Bud (Michaels) Jones.
and Bob (Yancey) Phillips. The
trio was accorded an enthusiast
ic, vociferous and fearful recall.
At the close of the concert part
of the program the club gave
beautiful little operetta entitled
"Alesia". "Alseia" is an adap-
tation by Prof. Strong from the
famous German opera Die
Puppe." which met with phe-
nomenal success in Germany.
Mrs. Kuria Strong played the
part of the doll in a finished
manner, acting her part with
perfect ease, while her beautiful
voice added greatly to the effect.
Ralph RAIDER, tenor, carried the
role of Launcelot, the bashful
and pious monk and was a de-
clded hit in a difficult part.
Clifford Cline took the part of
Maximus, the father of the alb
hey. his singing being one of the
most delightful parts of the eve
nlng's program. Charles Talbot
successfully carried two roles.
that of Basilius, a pious monk.
and of Jack, the happy-go-lucky
young Dutchman. Hamilton
Montgomery was another hit in
the part of Belthasar, the bluff
and hearty old monk. Robert
Phillips ably took the part of
Hllarius, the aged genius and
dollmaker.
A splendid orchestra furnished
the accompaniment for the
songs, as well as music between
acts and assisted greatly in an
altogether delightful program.

TAFT CLUBS AND NEGRO SUI
ERAGE.

a Mr.. Anderson, of Richmond, has
been to Augusta to see Mr.. Taft about
organizing 'tindependcnt clubs for
Augusta says:
Mr.. Anderson went back to Rich
mond tonight and he will probably
undertake the work in hat State. 1t
is expected that other Southerners
who ave expressed an interest in tho
plan will visit Augusta before Mr..
Taft leaves.
The independent clubs as suggested
by Mr.. Anderson would be made up of
Democrats who believed in Mr.. Taft's
expressions that the South should no
follow the Democracy as a blind
tradition but vote as it thinks.
Through these clubs that doctrine
would be preached through the
South"
1t will be observed hat the promo
tiers of these clubs are careful to sup
press al reference to Mr.. Taft's let
ter d~enouncing the pending suffrage
amendment in Maryland-a denuncia-
ton that every action by
Southern States looking to the puri-
fled suffrage by which alone the South
ENJOYS good government and peace.

c'"hs in the South would be: up With
Taft and Down With Southern Suf-
frage Laws. The Southern White
Man Is AS Good AS the Negro if He
Lets All the Ignorant Negroes Vote"

HOW TAFT SHOWS 1T.

The States of Louisiana, MISSISSIPPI
South Carolina, Virginia. Alabama.
North Carolina and Georgia passed
suffrage amendments denying the bal
lot to ignOrantS1egrO voters.
All these amendments became laws
under the administrations OF Harrison.
Mckinley and Roosevelt. Not one Of
those Republican Presidents deemed 1t
any concern of his or assumed to write
a public letter denOuncing the state
amendments as unjust and unfair and
calling upon Republicans to oppose
them. But. now that Maryland for
self-protection has framed a law k
that of the other Southern states. Mr..
Taft feels called upon to use the m
fluence he has obtained to call upon
the voters of Maryland to defeat the
bill to purify the suffrage. That is the
first fruits of his widely-heraided
friendship tor the South.
If the Maryland amendment is "un-
fair and unjust SO is that of other
Southern States. Is Mr.. Taft to show
the South by re-opening the question
of negro-voting and restore another
Southern hell of Reconstruction?
1t is Maryland's business to pass It's
suffrage laws without waiting for the
aid or consent of any President-elect
Massachusetts has the same right.
Island has q system of reprc-
sentation that is grossly unfair, but
tina is q matter with which Maryland
has not ing to do. Mr.. Taft has 10th
ing to do with the'local regulation of
suffrage in Maryland, and his attempt
to keep all the negroes at the ballot
box Will do he South more harm
than all the honeyed words he can
uSp for his whole term.

HOKE SMITH TALKS SENSE.

At the educational meeting in At
lanta this week, there We're some of
the usual theatrical essays about the
education of the negro that showed
lack of knowledge of practical cOndi-
tons and little appreciation of the
negro and his position in the South.
Governor o Smith, replying to the
silly sentimentalism, talked sound
ense. saying, among other things:
The first step toward the develop
ment of the negro is elimination OF
friction etwee the white man and
the negro. The Negroes character and
capacity must be built by his white
neighbors and white employers. The
negro universities are all right, per
haps, but we must not forget how few
of them have ever seen the inside Of
these colleges. These school just
touch the edge of the problem. The
real problem is among the masses.
Il do not believe in prejudice and
] do not believe in hatred, but | resent
with all my sou any denunciation of
race prejudice. which denunciatiOn
really aims to obliterate the lines of
distinction between the white race and
the negro race.
The great bulk Of the negro ace
is engaged. and must continue to be
engaged, in the humber walks of life
and in the humber lines Of labor. The
real problem is to teach them to do
that work well. to do it thoroughly,
and then, later. we can teach them to
do something batcr. We are not try
ing to the race. We are try
ing to see the truth and to really help
them, the negroes.
ut is the Southern mans burden
and the Southern woman's burden.
real problem is ours. We know
the egro better thar anybody else"

THE PRACTISE OF TEMPERANCE

The going into effect Of the State
Prohibition law should be the occa-
sion for a revival of preaching the
evils of i~ntoXicants. The Tarboro
S~outherner truly says:
IF every citizen who voted for
State prohibition will practice indi-
vidual prohibition. North Carolina
will have the soberest population TO
be found outside of a Mohammedan
country"
Many voted for the State prohibi-
ton law who have contracted an APP
petite for strong drink. Their pur-
pose was the best-to remove telnpta
ton from themselves and their neigh
borS. They have succeeded in clos
ing the bars and shutting down the
stills. They still have a harder task
for the New Year II that is to ''prac-
tise individual prohibition" The drink
habit has done more to impoverish the
people of North Carolina han any
a society where drinking was general
and have contracted the habit neon
%sciously. Now that the bars and sa-
looms are closed and there is no place
where it can be legally sold. why
should not there be a general New
Year resolution not to drink intoXi-
cants for the year 1909? This would
be a good resolution for those who
voted against the law and those who
voted for it. Except for medicine, no
good comes from intoXicants, and
hardly a family has escaped heart
and woe from excessive indul-
gence by some owed one.
We have legal prohibition. Now
let us have practical prohibition and
let every man who voted for the law
set the right example.
