Scarcely day passes without

This is a sign which shows the

everything is for the cleaner and

Pullman is the recognized con-
vention center of eastern Wash
ington. Even Spokane falls far
short of Pullman in the number
of conventions held. Farmers
organizations, fruit growers,
stockmen, religious societies and
lodges come to Pullman to hold
their conventions because of its
central location and it's facilities
for entertaining visitors. The
college is also great attraction
for drawing people to Pullman.

REUNION OF ExssLAVEs.

A movement Is on foot which
promises to result in the most
remarkable reunion ever held in
the state.
w. f. Bailey, an ex-slave, now
living at Lagrange, is making an
effort to arrange for a reunion
of former slaves to be held in
Macon during the state fair this
fall, and he is asking the CO.
operation of the white people as
well as of the surviving ex-slaves
themselves.
Whatever may be said of slav-
cry as an institution, it is a
known fact that much of the
sentiment in regard to the old
south clusters about the fidelity
and devotion of the slaves for
their master. who. in a vast ma
jority of cases, understood them
better than anyone has ever I'M
derstoOd them since. and treated
them well.
This fidelity was particularly
true of the body servants, and
it is this class of ex-slaves which
Bailey is especially anxious to
assemble for the reunion. Many
of these slaves, like Bailey him
self. went through the civil war
with their masters. 1t was an
incident unique in history that at
home in the south the slaves re-
manned on the plantations, indus
triOus. quiet and devoted. or fol-
lowed their masters to the war
with equal devotion. when in do
ing so. they were-aeeording to
the theories of the doctrinaires-
opposing their own interests.
The old-time slave is passing
away rapidly. Only a few of the
type survive to attend the forth
coming reunion. and it is hoped
that they will be given all posi-
BILE assistance in getting to this
reunion. Indeed. it is hoped that
they will succeed in the further
movement of estab fishing a home
IN which the surviving ex-slaves.
and especially the old-time body
servants, may spend the remnant
Of their days.
