NOR Not With HA Party.
The Young Mems Republican Club
of Baltimore on Friday night Of last
week, at its club rooms, celebrated
Lincoln's anniversary. Among other
speakers was George r. Gather, late
Republican candidate for Governor
We give below an extract from his
speech:
"On the vital question OF the proper
relation between the races, our party's
position should be defined In the clear
est possible manner. II should be
stated that we favor the protection
of the negro in his political and per-
sonal rights, and we believe In as
suming the burden of the education
of the race, both mentally and indus
trially, for the reason that we believe
that thereby can be ultimately ac-
complished the uplifting Of this race,
and the promotion of their happiness
and prosperity, and necessarily the
reflex benefit that such conditions will
bring about with the race in whose
midst we are living.
I'VE must demonstrate that we be-
lieve in preserving the elective fran
chise to the colored man. not as a
weapon for aggression, but as a shield
for defense. and so that he may not
feel the avenue Of hope closed by any
arbitrary action TO his race: but at
the same time we should make II
known In unmistakable terms that the
Republican party in every section Of
our common country, whether In the
South OF West, and no matter what
the proportion Of the respective races
may be, will stand inexorably and all
ways for the supremacy OF the Ameri-
can civilization, institutions and gov
ernment which were established and
maintained by our foretathers, and for
the conduct and direction OF such
government by the descendants OF
these founders and men allied with
them in racial sympathy.
And lastly, we should convince the
people OF the South OF the fact that,
although the Republican party stands
nationally for the protection OF the
rights OF the negro for the reasons
have stated. yet II Is nevertheless
party which is controlled and direct
ed, In all parts OF our country where
1t has the supremacy. by the influence
and strength OF the great dominant
race to which our country belongs"

GETS SNAKE AND FISH.
Angler, Interrupted by Seven-Foot Racer
While Playing Five-Pound Bass,
Passes UP Neither

FORT WAYNE. Ind, Sept. g.
Charles Paul is the toast of the town
among fishermen. He was fishing at a
small lake near Angola, from the bank
because there was no boat available.
Hooking a bass he found it necessary
to play for advantage in shallower water
to his right. With eyes glued to his line
he did not see big blue racer until the
snake whred itself around his legs and
lifted it's head above his belt.
With Paul it was not a question of
fish or snake. 1t was both. Grasping
the reptile by the throat with his left
hand, he braced his fish rod under his
right arm, while calmly he reached for
his knife in his pocket.
Opening it with his teeth he cut the
snakes throat and disengaged it's folds
from him. Then he resumed his argu-
ment with the bass. Pretty soon he
drew the fish to shallow water and land
ed it.
The snake measured feet 2 inches.
The bass weighed 5 pounds.
Both snake and fish are on exhibition.

Among the animals having the best es-
tablished reputation for longevity are:
The crow, which lives 100 years; the
parrot and the elephant, which attain
an age of $50 years. Carp, on the other
hand, appear to have usurped their repu
tation, which was based on Misunderstood
facts from Chantilly and Fontainebleau.
They rarely become centenarians. The
tortoise appears to be the animal that
lives the longest, and the record Of
longevity is surely held by one weigh
ing $50 kilograms, which was presented
in 1904 to the London geological gardens
bv Walter De Rothschild, and which is
said TO have been born in 1850.
