and the eangressmen in nearly every case lead the way to the presence of the president.
 The wonder is if the country knows how much hard work goes on in the White House, not only in the presidents office, but in all the adjoining offices If anyone envies the private secretary his position perhaps he would throw envy to the winds after watching Charles Dyer Norton go through one days labor. The assistant secretary works just as hard as does the chief secretary and in the office communicating with the room of these two hard-working is room filled with stenographers and clerks hard at work.
 There is White House clerk who has most painstaking job. Invitations to the semi public White House receptions of course are en- graved, but the name of each person invited must appear on the engraved ticket of admission which accompanies the invitation, one line or the ticket must be left blank because the engra- wing of 4000 individual names, one to go on each card. would be endless task and tremendous expense It Is the duty of one of the clerks to fill in the and to do 1t so that the writing shall look as though 1t were engraved. This he does in way that deceves the ordinary eye sight. A card of admission to one of the White House receptions looks if 1t were all the work of the engraver, fine Is the handicraft of the man who fills in the vacant line with the tracing of his ordinary pen.
 About year and half ago the clerk who did this engraving died and it became necessary to find some to take his place. It was supposed that this would be hopeless task, or that at the best the services of man must be obtained whc after long practise might be able to accomplish what his predecessor so successfully had done. To the surprise of everybody the first cards of invitation that went out were just as deceptive as far as engraving and handwriting were concerned as were those that had gone from the desk of the man who for years had labored at the task and had arrived at perfection which it was supposed no one without months of practise could reach.

adopt the Roosevelt policy of getting rid of his visitors because the two constitutionally different in at least respect It must be said, however that the Roosevelt plan of receiving guests has done a good deal to save the tempers of White House visitors and the time of MT. Taft.
 As everybody knows, addition was made to the White House offices time ago. In the Roosevelt days callers went into the cabinet room and from there either ushered into the adjoining room, where the president sat, waited while MT Roosevelt out and made circuit of the cabinet room, speaking to one caller after another and getting through with his work quickly and yet without giving offense.
 Now President Taft has circular room all to himself, and while the visitors allowed the two big outside, it is from these rooms they find there way to the presidents presence, being let in eight ten at time, and not at a time, was the case when Mr. Taft first took office.
 The president has adopted the Roosevelt method of passing from visitor to visitor learn ing the wants of each and trying as sest he can to suit each caller and to get rid of him as quick ly courtesy will permit. President Taft, how ever, is so good natured and is humanly inter

TITLE BY LITTLE President Taft has come into direct line with one of the Roosevelt policies, and he will follow it in the future as be has been following it for some weeks. It will be the rule at the summer capital at Beverly, Mass, as it is today the fixed rule of procedure in the White House.
 The Roosevelt policy which President Taft finally has adopt ed as his own is the method of receiving visitors which was in force during the eolonel's tenure of office. It is possible that Pres fdent Taft never will be able to

Maryland Negroes Disfranchised.


The MARYLAND legislature has dis
franchised over $4,000 negroes so far
as state and municipal elections are
concerned by the passage OF the bills
of Deleaate w. Mitchell Digges. OF
Charles county. It is the most sweep
ing method of disfranchisement ever
attempted in any state. and even lead
ing statesmen of the far southern
states have expressed a doubt as To its
constiuti0n9lity But the scheme is
so ingeniously worked out that no real
test can be made in the courts until
after the next state election.
The bills were passed by both the
houses and will be sent to the gov
ernOr
There are four bills in all The first
repeals the existing registration laws:
the second enacts a new registration
measure providing that none but white
men shall be registered in the future
as voters; the third carries the con
stitutional amendment designed to re
strict registration for all time to the
white persons OF the state. as IL pro
hibits any future legislature from eX-
tending the registration privilege to
negroes. except those owning $500
worth Of property.
This amendment will be voted upon
in the fall Of 1911 by white men only
A provision has been inserted which
will permit the white voters. if they
so desire. to extend the privilege or
registration and the ballot box to ne
groes owning and paying taxes on $500
worth of property. It was thought best
to insert this provision. as the Demo
cratic leaders desire to shut out only
the thriftless and ignorant negroes
and are willing to admit to the ballot
box those who have sufficient thrift to
accumulate $500 worth of property
This property qualification is
thought preferable to an educational
qualification. because il is believed
that the negro who has accumulated
property will prove better worthy OF
the franchise than the educated negro,
who may be weighted with all the
shiftlessness of his race.
The fourth bill etXends the terms OF
the mayor and other municipal officers
or Baltimore city. so that their success
sors will be chosen at the November
state election. spring elections being
abolished. The bills are based upon
the assumption that the Fifteenth
amendment is void and it is declared
in the preamble that the exercise OF
the elective franchise by the negro Is
not consistent with his own best in

CANTERBURY, No %. needs every
thing attention from it. school committee
and from the teachers After coming
from series of clean, well-kept schools to
the two rooms at Canterbury, where dirty
floors and unkept conditions prevail, it
was disheartening. The state pays two.
thirds ofthe running expenses of this and
other rural schools, and to have children
herded in crowded rooms without any
preteuce of keeping those rooms clean
and attractive, is an outrage. The build
ing is abused by battering OF the weather
boarding, the plaster Is broken some, and
above all the girls and boys need to be
taught to have a pride in keeping the
school clean and attractive. IL has good
pump, wood house, fair water closets,
maps and furniture, but the blackboards
are very poor. Mr. Hodson and Miss
Schultz are the teachers, and these con-
ditions must be remedied, or the County
Commission will be compelled to take
steps to force the local school committee
to meet SANITARY conditions at least. The
whole building needs a general cleaning
and painting inside and out.
WOODSIDE, No. II, needs recitation
benches and but little else, other than
better conditions as to cleanliness. The
first floor room was very dirty for lack Of
sweeping. Paper was scattered over the
floor, the sand must have been days in
accumulating, and the conditions were all
together unsatisfactory. This school is
not in as good condition as it was year
ago.

parents of Camden will persist in heating
