coLoRED GOODS EXPLAIN
Not Seeking Social Equality at Cor
NELL but Convenience

Ithaca, N. Y, April 5.-Miss Paul
inc A. Ray of Geneva and Miss Rosa
A. Vassar of Lynchburg, Va, the col
ored students at Cornell University,
whose application for rooms in Sage
College stirred up the goods, have
issued statement in which they set
forth the reasons why they desire to
live in the women's dormitory.
The colored students deny that
they consulted any other negro stu
dents before making their applica-
ton, nor do they desire to start trou-
BILE. They say that when they APP
piled for rooms the Dean of Sage Col
lege, Mrs. Gertrude A. Martin, said
that after a consultation with EN-
mons Williams, the treasurer of the
university, they had decided that it
would not be expedient to allow the
girls TO room in the building
1--WE want a nearer and more con
venient place of residence" the girls
say in their statement. I'VE don't
seek social equality. Our present
rooms are mile and a half from the
campus. If we could live at Sase col
legt, as far as convenience and com
fort goes, we would be as one with
the rest of the girls, but in all things
social we would be as separate as
two fingers on one hand.
I'VE leave it to the trustees and
believe they will give us justice, but
we know that if Henry w. Sage were
alive we would get Justice"
Henry w. Sage gave Sage College
to the University.

MILWAUKEE SOCIALISTS LOSE
Candidates for School Board Seem
Beaten by Catholic Ticket.

Milwaukee, April Am outpouring
of women voters, especially those be-
longing to the Catholic church, aided
by a non-partisan movement to OPP
pose the Socialists in their efforts to
capture a Circuit Judge and gain
membership in the School board, has
resulted, according to early returns,
in a defeat of the Socialist Party,
which has been in power in Milwau-
kee for a year. No municipal offices
were to be filled, the election being
for five members of the School Board
for a full term 1.-TWO to fill vacancies)
and for Judges one Circuit Judge and
one Civil Judge being opposed for re-
election by the Socialists.
The entrance into the field of a
Catholic ticket, used as the chief Is
sue of the campaign by the Socialist,
proved a boomerang. The Catholic
Social Union nominated four candi-
dates. The Socialists charged the
church was trying to control the pub
lie school. The Catholic Union declar
ed that the ticket was not so much a
church ticket as a ticket designed to
get out the Catholic vote to defeat
the Socialists. That this was true in
part is shown that the five leading
candidates whose names appear first
on the ballot include names approved
by the Voters League, Catholic, and
by several of the local newspapers in
an anti-Socialists state. In the list Of
those apparently nominated for the
school board are three on the Catho-
lie ticket, one being a nonCatholic,
and one a Jewish woman. The Soci-
alists candidates, limited to two by
the primary which eliminated the
other three, happened to rank on the
list of candidates on the voting ma
chimes, and are apparently defeated.
The women voted ballots and the
men by machine. The non-partisan
advocates claim that the apparent de-
feat of the Socialists is evidence that
the reign of Socialism has not proved
satisfactory to Milwaukee voters. The
fact that a Jewish woman and a Pro
testant are among the victors refutes
the Socialist claim that the Catholic
church won the victory.

TO ELECTRlFY BRANCH LINE
N. Y, N. n. g. n. r. r. Plans to Build
Up Towns Near Springfield

Springfield, Mass, April 5.-The
New York, New Haven & Hartford
Railroad will eleotrify its TariffviIle
Branch, eighteen miles in length, run
ming from Springfield to Tariffville.
The line passes through rich farming
districts but the houses are few and
far between. Through electrifcation
the traffic will be moved with greater
frequency, and the territory is expect
ed to be built up in a way that the
steam road has failed to accomplish.
The plans for the change have not
been completed, but it is expected
that the road will be turned into a
trolley line to accommodate modified
trolley cars. The Tariffville Branch
is famous in railroad annals because
of the fact that when first opened as
a part of the Hartford & Connecticut
Western it was necessary to lay four
miles of track to span a distance of
31S feet right of way which the
road neglected to obtain and which
the owner obstinately refused to sell.
