A Blessing to Befea.

I eff this case reaches the. higher
courts and the views expressed in
this opinion are sustained and upheld,
It is the personal view of the judge
II this court, that the act of the leg
islature which is now so vigorously
assailed by the defendant will prove
to be a blessing to Berea College, and
to the colOred as well as to the white
youth Of Kentucky. Instead of the
usefulness Of Berea College being
hampered, it is the opinion of the
judge of this court that its power for
good will be greatly extended and
enlarged. If it should be determined
by the trustees of the College, as the
judge Of this court hopes and believes
1t will be, to continue the college at
Berea for the reception and educa-
ton of white boys and girls, and to
establish at some other point in Ken
lucky, beyond the prohibited distance,
a college for the reception and educa-
ton of colored youth, the prejudice
which has heretofore existed to some
extent in some quarters and from
some persons against Berea College,
because of the cooperation there of
the two races, will completely vanish,
and the generous Open-handed peo-
pie of Kentucky will extend their
sympathy to, and give substantial aid
and encouragement to both institu-
lions to an extent to which many
tKentuckians have heretofore been un-
willing to do. These views, of course,
do not affect the legal questions in
volved in this case, but they cause
the judge of this court to be better
satisfied with the conclusions reach
ed as to the legal aspects fthe case,
than be could be, did he not believe
that benefcent results will surely fol-
low a cheerful compliance and ac-
quiescence in the Day Bill by the de-
PENDANT.

An Impossible Thing.

Berea College was by the Day Law
forced, as it were. to do an impossi-
BILE thing, namely to do for two groups
of students separately what it had
been doing for them together. This
could only be done by large addi-
tional resources, and Berea must
stagger under the burden till the 'Ad-
justment Fund" is raised. The his
tory is peculiar.
Berea was started before the war
by John 6. Fee, Cassius M. Clay, and
John Rogers, for the mountain people.
After the war a few colored students
were admitted as at Northern
Schools, and Berea was at once over
whelmed by the task of training
teachers for the new colored public
schools. Many gifts at that time
came through interest in the 'colored

President Frost Speaks.

President Frost then took the floor
and explained his mission. The prin-
cipal part of his address was an ex-
PLANTATION of what the school would
be and statement of the amount of
money already subscribed and the
amount needed. Already there has
been $340,000O0 given for the school
outside of the State by such noted
giyers as Andrew Carnegie and Mrs.
Russell Sage and other philanthro-
pists on the condition that the re-
naming $60,000.0O be raised in Ken
lucky.

DIR. Frost said the agreement that

have responded so nobly to the call
to give this amount provided we raise

to meet promptly.

LURTON FAVORED
TO WEAR ERNINE
TenneSSean Said to Be De
cided Upon for the SUI
preme Court.
By J. C. wELLIvER.

A letter has been received in Wash
ington from a Nashville, Tenn, poll
tician, who is a close friend of Jus
tice Lurton and OF former Secretary
Luke Z. Wright. declaring that t may
be set down as settled that Justice
Lurton will be appointed TO the Su-
preme Berch.
The information Is regarded as pc
euliariy reliable, so far as it has to
do with the impression which Judge
Lurton and Secretary Wright enter
tain.
Judge Lurton probably is closer Ito
President Taft than anybody else now
IN public life. The story goes that
Mr. Taft wanted President Roosevelt
TO name Judge Lurton to the Supreme
Bench instead of Justice Moody; but
Mr.. Roosevelt would not do it. It was
Judge Lurton who first introduced Sec
Rotary Taft and General Wright; and
in the present juncture. according to
the advices from Nashville. General
Wright is looking after the interests
of Judge Lurton IN the judicial matter.
The information. therefore, may be
said to come directly from both Judge
Lurton and General Wright, that they
are confident OF the appointment OF
Judge LurtOn. They think, moreover,
that the appointment viii be made i'm
mediately after President Tafts re-
turn from his trip. in order TO pre-
vent the possibility OF a long and en-
barrassing consideration.
The President is. in fact, getting all
the advice he needs or wants, just
at this time. being subject to the inn
portunities of the big Congressional and
gubernRtOrial party that is accompany
ing him down the Mississippi. There
has been suggestion that an appoint
ment to the Supreme Bench at this
time is Of such Importance, in view
of the close division of the court In
recent decisions, that there is certain
10 be a careful consideration of any
nomination before confirmation is OBJ
tanned. Judge Lurton viii have an en-
thusiastic support among the lawyers
of his own circuit; but some of il
comes from lawyers who declare frank
II that they Will be pleased TO see him
of the circuit bench of the Sixth cir
cult.
Organized labor is especially bitter
toward Judge L5rtOn because Of his
decision under sthe employers liability
act. It Is regarded as hopeless TO at
tempt to secure ultimate rejection Of
any nomination President Taft may
make; but il is known that some de-
termined work IS now in progress, aim
ing to make up a showing of the judi
cia1 record of Judge LurtOn with a
view TO dissuading the President from
appointing him.

IN the furtherance of this plan the

conditions of the nation show a big
Improvement.
There is such a lack OF unity in
