BOOKS TO CLOSE
ON NEXT TUESDAY
ONLY TWO MORE DAYS LEFT
IN WHICH TO QUALIFY
FOR PRIMARIES

hnarclis. Mr., April 2.-The Diggee
bill for the disfranchisement of the
negro in all states and municipal elec-
tions in Maryland passed the senate
late last night. The bill did not go to
the house of representatives where its
large Democratic majority in that
body.
Ii is not proposed to attempt to pre-
vent negroes voting at congressional
or presidential elections, the restric-
tion applying only to state and muni-
cipal balloting. The original draft of
the plan was amended by clause by
which negroes owning property assess
ed at five hundred dollars may vote,
provided they are possessed of prop
erty thus valued two years in advance
CT their registration.
1t is proposed to repeal the present
registration law and TO have new
general registration next year, refus-
ish the spring election in Baltimore,
carrying forward these elections until
the state election in November fol
lowing.
Being refused registration if the
bills are enacted, the negro will be un-
able to vote on a measure when it
comes tefore the electors in Novem-
ber. 1911. in the form of a constitu-
tiOnal amendment
The Democrats did not insert the
property qualification in the registra-
ton bill, they say, because they will
conduct the election under the state
constitution, from which, it is claimed,
the word white" has never been ex-
plunged.

JUDGE PARKER
DECIDES TO GET
INTO THE RACE
:iftE '.l@,..-
HIS FRIENDS CLAIM HE WILL
ANNOUNCE FOR CONGRESS
THIS WEEK


Judge T. A. Parker, of the Way
cross circuit, formerly judge of the
Brunswick circuit, will oppose Con-
gressman Brantley at the approach
ing primary and his announcement
may be made public during the next
few days.
That is the report now current over
the district and which is being cir
culated by the closest friends of the
Waycross jurist. 1t is current in var
iOus sections of the district, and
though it was considered false runner
at first, it is now stated that Judge
Parker has stated to his close
friends that ne has finally decided to
seek congressional hOnors.
1t is a well known fact that efforts
have been made in certain quarter
to get Judge Parker to oppose the
Brunswick congressman. There are
few politicians over the district anX-
ious to see Mr.. Brantley have opposi-
ton, not that hey believe he can he
defeated, but just to antagonize him,
and Judge Parker has been urged by
these people to enter the race. For
a time he refused, but that he win
run and that his formal announcement
will be made during this week is prac-
tically a certainty. p
Judge Parker has served as judge
of the Brunswick circuit for several
years, resigning the first of the year
to accept the iadgeship Cf the new
Waycross circuit. He has made an
excellent record as presiding judge,
is popular in every cofnty of the cir
circuit, is a good speaker and a mixer,
but whether or not he can make it
even interesting for Congressman
Brantley remains to be seen. The 10
cal congressman is easily one Of the
leaders in congress, he is an eiGqueht
and fOrCeful speaker, popular in every
nook and crook of the Eelevnth dis
trict, has friends who will get out and
work for him, and it is not believed
that there is a man in the district who
could even put up strong race
against him.
However. Judge Parker evidently
sees it differently. and if the state
ment of his closest friends is to be
considered, he is practically at pres
ent a candidate for congerss

Pittsburg People Declined to Hear
From the Mayor of the City.

Pittsburg, April 2.-In rebuke to the
political grafters in this city a mass
meeting was held at Exposition hall
last night and Mayor William Magee
who endeavored to address the crowd
was hissed off the stage.
With several pleas for order by
Chairman Well, Mayor Magee at
tempted to explain his action on many
local matters, especially the case of
County Delinquent Tax Collector Max
Leslie who was recently acquitted of
charges of perjury in connection with
the graft cases.
Mr.. Well said that when Leslie was
on trial in Criminal Court the mayor
gave him aid and counsel. The mayor
denied the charge to the accompani
ment of more hOCts. In the midst of
further explanation of traction mat
ters, he said; I'D like to speak all
night and go into every detail"
Kisses STOPPED the mayor there, and
he was compelled to desist.

Lies battle cries the strong man;
Lifs's a picnic laughs The fool,
Where each one gets what run hs
can,
Bat e me it seems a school
Men and women, pain and pleasure
Teach the eager scholar there
Lessons precious beyond measure,
Aspirations pure and fair.
Yet the learning heems so futile.
Ever more and more to learn;
Scarce truth is seen. as true till
A thousand others We discern.
Forty years I've striven for knowledge
In Lies strenuous school;
Yet boy that's fresh from college
Sometimes makes me feel fool.
He has delved in depths of science.
And philosophy has scanned;
Knows the use of each appliance
In praetieed hand.
He can scribble Greek and Latin,
Talks Of Euclid glib and gay;
All the poets he is pat in.
Knows too much to pray.
But one truth no book can teach us,
Nor the search Of skies above;
Hearts must bleed ere it can reach us
That the greatest Truth is Love,
Life's stern rod this heavenly knowl
edge
Taught me in his strenuous school
Lacking this, the man from college
Crammed with learning, is the fool
