Theodore Teitgen, a former resident
of Newton, died at the home of his sis
ter, Mrs. Stoeltipg, in Oconto, where he
had gone recently with his wife for a
visit. Mr.. Teitgen had been in poor
health for some time, but it was not
thought that there was any immediate
danger and the news of his death was a
shock to his many friends here. He was
81 years old and was we'll and favorably
known in this city and the southern part
of the county. He managed large
farm and conducted hotel in the town
of Newton on the Green Bay road for
many years. A short time ago he dis.
posed of his property and removed to
this city. He is survived by his wife
and four sons DR.. Arthur Teitgen, prac-
ticing at the old home in Newton, DR. .
August, dentist in Chicago, Herman
and Clarence and one daughter Miss
Linda of this city. He is also survived
by one brother Emil of this city and
three sisters, Mrs. A. c.. Becker of this
city, Mrs. G.. w. Stoelting of Oconto and
Mrs. R, Kraethe of Milwaukee. The
body of Mr.. Teitgen was brought here
for burial. The funeral was held Tues
day afternoon

the State and destructive of the prin-

The liquor problem will ever be

it not the sanest way to combat its
evils under the present law-regulated
and segregated system than to contend
with it in the form of blind-tigers,
boot-legging and multifarious num-
Der of other evasions? Why
dispense with the five hundred thou
sand dollars arising from the taxation
of the traffic, still have it, and then
make the people go into their pockets
to make up this enormous sum? To
attempt to show good reason for so do
ing is to attempt the impossible-in
short, it is reasoning with a vengeance,
and the people, who must pay the fid-
der, suffer.

AN INDUSTRIAL MOVEMENT.

A number of prominent and public
spirited citizens of the State met Satur-
day, January 16, and perfected an or
ganization to be known as The Ten
nessee Normal, Agricultural and Me-
chanical Association. The object of
this association is to establish a Nor
NAL, Agricultural and Mechanical Col
lege for the training of Negro youth.
This is the right step in the right di-
rection. Let the people interest them
selves in giving it their active and
hearty support and nothing can pre-
vent it from developing into tangible
form. If the people enter into the true
spirit of the project as have the mem
bers of the association, there will be
no such thing as failure.
This paper from time to time advo-
Gated the necessity of establishing an
institution for the instruction of
the Negro youth of the state. 1t
has maintained all along that the
agricultural, mechanical and indus
trial future of the Negro people in Ten
nessee depended largely upon the pro-
vision they would make for the intelli-
gent training and preparation of their
youth. They will be given an oppor-
tunity now to prove whether they do or
do not want a real creditable indus
trial school for their children. What
they do now will mean much, and will
be far reaching in its effect and infu-
ence.
The men behind this enterprise are
thoroughgoing, reliable business men.
They are interested in and may be
counted upon to take an active part in
any worthy effort for the betterment
of the community. AS there must be
a head and front to every successful
the Normal, Agricultural
and Mechanical Association has been
formed to advise, plan, and take the
lead in this movement.
Let there be unity of interest on the
part of all the people, and success is
sure.

LIBERIA WANTS HELP.

The conditions in the republic Of
Liberia do not seem to be at all i'm
proving so far as the management
of financial affairs is concerned
from time to time. There has come
up before them things that have
caused more than one serious refec-
ton. That these conditions are still
serious is shown from the following
dispatch from the National capital.
Washington, January 19.-President
Roosevelt to-day transmitted to Con-
gress with his approval a letter from
Secretary of State Root asking that
authority be given for the appointment
of a commission of three Americans
to go to Liberia and assist that Re-
public in Strengthening its hold on
the reins of government. The Presi-
dent, in his Endorsement of the propo-
sition, asks for an appropriation Of
$4,000 for the payment of the expens-
es of the commission. The Presidents
message on the subject is as follows:
81 earnestly hope that the recon-
mendation of the Secretary Of State
will be approved and that Congress
will grant the appropriation Of
$4,000 for the payment of the expens-
es of commission who shall go to
Liberia to examine into the situation,
confer with the officers Of the Liberian
Government and with the representa-
tives of other Governments actually
present in Monrovia and report recon-
mendations as to the action on the
part of the Government of the United
States most apt to render effective
relief to the Republic of Liberia un-
der the present critical circumstances.
The relations of the United States to
Liberia are such as to make an i'm
peratlve duty for us to do all in our

1t is one thing to hunt the bear, but
quite another thing when the bear
turns and begins to hunt the hunter.
This is true in some other cases. For
instance, if a United States Senator
has an itching desire for few hun
dred or a thousand or so of the
broad, timbered acres of Oregon
lands, he will start on the hunt for
fraud to dispossess the fraudulent pos
SCISSORS, which, by his official influence,
is done; but when fraud begins to hunt
him. how differently does he act. 1t is
a case of vice versatile hunted be-
comes the hunter. The falling from
grace of this last Southern senatorial
paragon Of integrity, truth, virtue and
nobility brings to the South another
blush of shame.

The Senate of the National Congress
of the Republic Of Cuba unanimously
elected the Negro leader, Morua Del
gado President of that body. That
was just and fitting tribute to the
Negro people of the Republic. They
have always furnished the majority of
the heroes upon whom have fallen the
brunt of the struggle for national free
dom. The spirit of the gallant Maceo,
the Toussaint L'Ouverture of Cuba,
must have looked down with compla-
cency on the seemingly tardy honor
conferred upon his people whom Del
gado represented.

Negro Elected President OF the SEN

Havana Jan. 1S.-Sessions of the
Senate and the House of Representa-
tives were held to-day for the purpose
Of electing permanent officers. The
proceedings were perfunctory and
there was not the least suggestion of
fractional friction. Martin Morua Del
gado, the colored leader, was unani-
mously elected President of the Sen
ate. In the House of Representatives
Col Orestes Ferrera, prominent mil
itary leader in the last revolution,
was elected President almost unani
mously. Col. Ferrera is native of
Italy and was Secretary of the Cuban
delegation at The Hague in 1907, but
resigned from that Office in conse-
quence of charges made against him
that he had participated in the an
archist propaganda in Italy prior to
coming to Cuba
Both houses adjourned until We'd
nesday. when they will meet in joint
session to ratify the election of Presi-
dent Gomez and Vice President Zayas.

Mr.. Root says that the condition of
Liberia is really serious. The forty
or fifty thousand civilized negroes,
mostly descendants of colonies from
the United States, find it especially
difficult to control the native tribes,
or because of lack of education, to
conduct their own Government in ac-
cordance with modern requirements.

THE GOVERNORS VETO.

Gov. Patterson sent Senate Bill No.
1, which is the statewide prohibitory
measure against the sale of liquors, to-
gether with his veto message back to
the Senate Tuesday afternoon. In view
of the fact that he had won in the pri-
mary election of his party over an able
and popular opponent holding opposite
views and also in the general election
against a statewide candidate, he
would have been false to the majority
of the people of Tennessee, who by
their suffrage had expressed confidence
in him and approval of his position
had he not vetoed the measure which
neither they nor he approved
The following is submitted, showing
in part the Governors attitude toward
the bill:
''In a message heretofore trans
mitted | urged against the passage of
law that would deprive the people, Of
the communities where liquor is now
sold, of the right to settle this ques-
tion for themselves.
81 pointed out that it was a right
heretofore enjoyed by other communi-
ties, gave reasons why it was neither
just nor eXpedient to make exceptions,
and urged that theonly fair and le-
Ultimate way to deal with IL EN- was in
accordance with established precedent
and under the principle of local self
government as declared by the Demo-
cratic party.
81 recommended that law be passed
giving the people an opportunity to ex-
press their wishes, and stood pledged
and would have approved any legis-
lation which would have carried their
will into effect.
"But the measure presented for my
approval not only denies these COM
munities right to be heard, but arbi-
trarily forces upon them a law which
they do not want and to which they
will never willingly consent.
Where can the justification be
found for thus disregarding inherent
and acknowledged rights which have
heretofore been held sacred and invio-
late?

those which should surround a public
