Fer Sweet Charity

The Philanthropy committee of the

ity ball to be given under the auspices
of the Club Cd the evening of the Sth
of February at the Yuma Theatre for
the purpose Of raising % fand to be dis
pensed for the relief Of the sick and
poor.
Almost numberless appeals are made
every year to the charitable people of
the town through these ladies and
others for assistance for the worthy
poor. This has usually been done by
means of collections and subscriptions
for each individual case. The result
has been that few people-usually
the business men of the towl-are
called upon to bear the burden. 1t is
greatly to the credit of the business
men of Yuma that their responses to
such appeals are always prompt and
liberal
1t is to forestall the necessity of these
frequent and sometimes annoying col
lectious that everybody will be asked
to patronize this charity ball and enter
tainment given by the Ocotillo Club
AS is well known, the affairs given
under the auspices of these ladies are
always frst-class, and this particular
function will be something to remem-
Der. a short musical programme will
be given in the early evening. Then

terspersed. Tickets of admission will

honor with liberalism that led him into
frankness of speech which created a
sensation in old Guild hall. As the former
head of a country that once paid tribute
to Great Britain, the American statesma n
gave the motherland some bold advice as
to her duty toward her most troublesome
dependency in Africa. 1t was. Mr.. Roose-
velt said, either right or not right for
Great Britain to be In Egypt and estab-
lish order there. If it was not right she
should get out
Mr.. Roosevelt eulogized British rule in
Uganda and the Sudan. He also declared
that Great Britain had given Egypt the
best government that the country had
had In 1000 years but in certain vital
points it had erred. Timidity and senti-
mentality, he said, might cause more
harm than violence and injustice
"Sentimentality,' he added. SIS the most
broken reed upon which righteousness can
lean"
Mr.. Roosevelt denounced the nationalist
party of Egypt as neither desirous nor
capable of guaranteeing primary justice.

the excuse being made that the adop-
tion of this amendment would open
the way for the insertion in confer
ence OF section II, which has been
stricken out and which authorizes mer-
gers and traffic agreements, The dem
ocratic conference on the whole came
after the executive session this after
noon and developed a difference of
opinion.
A pool developed OF about 16 democrats
who believed the bill fundamentally bad
chiefly because of the court of commerce
feature and are convinced the wisest par
ty policy would be for the democrats to
vote soidly against it. Others, among
them Senator Bailey of Texas. think that
the insertion into the bill OF the .'long
and short haul provision. the 'Cummins
amendment shifting the burden of proof
to the railroads to show why a rate Is
reasonable and other good features in
serted through insurgent and democratic
votes, Justify the democrats in voting for
the bill on the final position, urging that
the party should not be placed In posi-
tion of voting against a measure con-
tanning these provisions simply because 1t
emanates from republican sources and Is
indorsed by the republican administra-
ton.
There was considerable argument over
these two points OF view and the agree
ment was finally reached to hold gem
eral conference of democratic senators to-
morrow morning at 10 o'clock and that at
that time majority of those present
should decide upon the party's attitude.
The conference, it Is understood, Is not
to be in any sense caucus and will have
no binding effect upon the individual at
titude of senators. II will. however, ex-
press the judgment of a majority of the
democrats and it Is believed most of them
will abide by that judgment.
