The people of Conway, through their city council and Board of Trade, ought to extend an invita- ton to the entire membership of the general assembly to visit this city and make an inspection of the new State Normal school. The legislators will be called upon to appropriate a sum of money for the maintenance and improvement of this institution, and in no other way can they become so well ac- quainted with its needs as by a personal investigation. The mat ter should be taken up at once, as the busiest part of the session is all ways toward the close, and the members later on might be unwill- ing to spare the time that they would now cheerfully give.

The Memphis Commercial Ap- peal is one of the great newspapers of the nation, and its editorial page is one of he few that is always worth reading. During the recent contest over state wide prohibition in Tennessee it waged the most brilliant warfare against the meas ure that we have ever witnessed. Its fight was worthy of a far nobler cause. And yet, after the bill pro- hibiting the sale ofliquor had been passed and then re-passed over the veto of the governor, the Com mercial Appeal said editorially that it stood for the enforcement of the law-impartially, absolutely; that there would be no blind tigers or boot-leggers in Memphis, if the power of its publicity could pre- vent it. The Commercial Appeal $ attitude is an instance of journalistic statesmanship.

PLAN PLEAsEs SUBSCRIBERS.


 The subscribers to the weekly
 edition are apparently as much
 pleased as we are by our policy re-
 quiring cash in advance for their
 subscriptions. It is rather re-
 markable fact that many subscrip-
 CTS who were not previously on
 our books have come to us since
 the plan was announced and stated
 that they were now willing to sub-
 scribe, las there is no danger of
 running up a bill against them
 after the expiration of their time.
 On the first of January we discon-
 tinued the paper to considerable
 number, but continued sending it to several hundred who were only slightly in arrears, informing them that ttheir names would also be taken from the list unless their re- newals were received by February I. More than two-thirds have re- sponded, and the present indica- tions are that only few will have to be cut off. We are advertising this week that beginning February I, 1909, NO SUB s C R B E R WILL OWE US ONE CENT FOR ANY COPY OR COPIES OF THE WEEKLY LOG CABIN DEMOCRAT THAT HE MAY RECEIVE AFTER HIS SUB HAS EXPIRED. This means that we intend to treat everyone exactly alike and that the richest man in the county cannot obtain the paper without paying for it in advance. The same policy is pursued with mail to the daily edition.
 Our reason for taking this step, which has already been explained, is simple. We can easily afford to furnish our weekly paper for a dol lar year, provided we get the dollar. But if one-fourth of the dollar must be expended to collect 1t and, for various reasons, another fourth is never collected, 1t is easy to see that we can realize scarcely fifty cents a year on the credit plan. Our only recourse, then, would be either to raise the sub scription price or to secure pay ment in advance. The first plan, while it has been adopted by many papers, is manifestly unjust, as it causes the good-paying subscriber also to pay the debts of those who fail to pay. It seems to us, there fore, that the plan we have adopt ed is the only fair one to all parties concerned, and, as we said in the our subscribers seem to agree with us.

DEATH OF MRS. L. A. PEACH.

Mrs. l.. A. Peach, one of the most
widely known ladies of Denver, died
at Mercy hospital last Sunday of
pneumonia and Bright's disease, after
only a few weeks illness. She had
been East on business and contracted
a heavy cold, so she hurried back to
Denver, where she received the best
of attention, but to no avail, as pneu-
monia had taken a firm hold on her
constitution. Mrs. Peach was very
progressive woman, imbued with great
ambition, and had she lived she no
doubt would have made her mark in
the musical world. Mrs. Peach was
buried Wednesday afternoon from
Shorter's A. NJ. E. church, of which
she was a member. Rev. Williams OF
Campbells A. M e. church conducted
the services. Interment was at Riv-
erside cemetery.
She leaves a husband, large num-
ber of relatives and many sorrowlng
friends to mourn her early demise.

PROGRAM OF THE PEOPLES SUM-
DAY ALLIANCE FOR DEC, 1909.

The board of directors of the Alli-
ance feel that in keeping with the
spirit of progress and advancing
knowledge that the Negro should be
as intelligent on all questions as any
other American citizen. There is not
question demanding our attention
that is more vital than the present
ravages of consumption. And we as
the greatest sufferers should be ac-
ouainted with the conditions and seek
to eradicate the disease that is deci-
mating our ranks. Consequently, the
board have arranged with our local
colored physicians to read series Oh
papers on this subject endeavoring 10
acquaint the people with dangers ana
warn them to flee the consequences OF
ignorance. The papers will be the
same as that read before the Colorado
association for prevention of tubercu-
losis.
