This Is malicious, If not a DELHI
crate misstatement, for SAID man is
only an ordinary member of the club,
and received absolutely no compensa-
ton or benefit in a financial way as
result of said membership.
Ia school number two is the init
nation that members of the Belle
vile Democratic Club have received
promises of the candidates that GER
tain appointments will be distributed
among them. The falsity of this is
apparent from the fact that not one
of the candidates is an active mem
Der of the club. That is, not a single
one ever attends a meeting and so
are evidently prevented from making
these much Haunted promises"
This letter is presented by the vote
of the Belleville Democratic Club OF
a meeting held last night, and they
desire it distinctly understood that
Mr.. DeGraw's remarks were made
either without any investigation of
statements which may have been

tack on the Belleville Democratic

SAVING THE SEMINOLES

Since that time of peril, sickness
and death and unremitting devotion
the Seminoles have given their abso-
lutte confidence to this medical mis-
sionary. In witness of the great
moral conquest, note this peculiar
tribal enactment of June, 1908. At that
time the Seminole shot-ca-taw or
green corn dance. was held, the most
important of their yearly festivals,
marked, also, by the annual council
of the tribe. Here the chiefs, assem-
bled around the council fire in solemn
conclave passed a remarkable decree
lifting the immemorial inhibition
which forbade their people to receive
instruction in the white mans way
or religion. One of the leading braves
was ordered to proceed as a messen-
ger Of state to Glade Cross, convey
ing the tidings that this ban was
formally removed, and the Seminoles
might henceforth hear the gospel and
receive baptism IL they SO desired.
Since that time a few converts have
been baptized. notable men of the
tribe in each case. and numbers have
come In from the glade converts to
gather about the wilderness cross and
listen with earnest attention to the
psalm, prayer, litany and sermon.
They are singularly devoted to music
and have learned to join in many of
the hymns, which DR.. Golden accom-
panies on a little melodeon.--Chris-

In the year 1906 DIR. w. j. Golden,
an Englishman by birth, but Florldian
by several years adoption. was in
installed at Glade Cross in the
Florida everglades as medical mis-
sionary. Before the doctor had been
here many months he had MS endur-
ance and zeal in the cause put to
severe test. An epidemic of measles
with attendant pneumonia sent a
great number. of the Indians to the
mission at one time. a number far
in excess of hospital capacity, equip
ment or service.
In this epidemic the doctor treated
twenty-seven of the pneumonia
cases, and out of all there were but
two deaths, both directly attributable
to the carelessneSS of the patients
themselves. Through the long and
severe ordeal the doctor was cook,
nurse and chambermaid, some times
also washerwoman and seamstress,
as well as attentive physician and
devout missionary. But 1t marked a
crisis, even an epoch, this little period
of peculiar Developments. One pair
of stout hands, one alert, intelligent
and trained mind, and, backing all,
one heroic soul, saved the day, and
the issue may yet prove that they
saved an historic racial remnant
from impending extinction.

Woman Suffrage Sex ldealism

..xvornan movement" Her virtuous
demands essentially for her own ben.
eft. as she conceives, are opposed
to natural law" he says.
I do not think that Mr.. Heape I'M
derstands the modern woman'S atti-
fude towards morality. 1t Is no.
where better expressed than in the
American woman's attitude toward
divorce. Every now and then some
foreign critic denounces what he
terms the loose ties of family life IN
the United States: the frequency OF
our divorces. particularly In the
West.
Two-thirds Of the divorces granted
in the United States are given to
women. but, far from regarding this
fact as a shame to America, have
always looked upon it as the most
hopeful sign of our times!
For 1t proves that women are de-
manding from men fidelity to the
vows they make at the altar, and
that they refuse the base compromises
which hold together the whited sep
ulchre of the European home. For
every household in which a single
high standard of morals does not pre-
vail is sepulchre reared over the
dead soul of womanhood!
w NAT Which, tOdhy - AOel
as Mr.. Heape declares, that men shall
conform to a moral code which he
holds to be opposed to natural law.
We say to men. ''You make the law.
Obey Ii is we obey it. If the law you
have made is. indeed. opposed to the
law of nature. then change it-that
the hypocrisy which poisons our
souls and our bodies and the souls
and the bodies of our children shall
come to an end!"
That is all the most fervent FEM
mist desires-identity between the
law and the facts.
The woman's revolution is a revo-
luton in morals. as Mr.. Heape de-
clares. But 1t is not rooted in sex
antagonism but in sex idealismi
Marriage, the life union Of one man
and one woman in purity and love. 10
the most beautiful ideal which has
ever been conceived by the human
race All women want is to take that
ideal off the book shelf and make it
a part Of daily life of men. as well as
of women. We are tired of morals
for women only!

Mr.. Dana took no stock in John
Swinton's advocacy of kind OF So
cialistic labor reform, but he knew
that Mr.. Swinton, whatever his per-
sonal views We're upon special ques-
tions, would never permit them to IN
fuence his Judgment respecting the
poiicy of Mr. Dana. In the afternoon,
about half an hour before MIR. Dana
quilted the office, Mr.. Swinton would
come IN, put on his skullcap. and then
he and Mr. Dana would stand side by
side. each with a foot resting upon
the window sill, and look out over the
City Hall Park while they chatted or
while they twitted one another In
good nature or while they discussed
more seriously some phases of edi-
torial management.
Mr.. Swinton could have written a
most entertaining and Instructive
book containing anecdotal reminis-
cences of Mr.. Dana as an editor and
as man. He certainly was fond OF
telling stories of that kind to his
friends and he told me many.

ing to me about q report OF duel
which had taken place in France and
of which a meagre account had been
cabled the night before to the Amer
lean newspapers. He said:

to read an account of duel, and the
more tragic or dramatic the greater

BY NIxoLA oREELEY-sMITH

| Mr.. Walter Heape, a scientist who
trails half the letters of the alphabet
after his name with the proud con-
seriousness of a peacock unfurling his
chief claim to distinction, has written
book on "sex-Antagonisnl,' in
which he undertakes to prove that the
universe is soon to be governed by
old maids! Lest this statement of his
case be suspected of bias, I quote
| from the book.
1T is clear that the present wom-
ans movement has its origin in sex
antagonism" writes the scientist,
gloomily. mo matter what each of
the various sections of that move
ment declares, no matter what is the
| ayowed object of the actions of any
one of them, 1t is obvious that the
| driving force is engendered by desire
to alter the laws which regulate the
| relations and therefore the relative
| powers of the sexes.
THE bulk of those who take an
active part In the movement are I'M
doubtedly spinsters, a dissatisfied and.
we may assume, an unsatisfied class
of women"
Mr.. Heape adds that, should women
obtain political power. legislation by
| oplloLSiS WOuiu NC ulI CcJly anLdROn-
istic to the interests of wives and
mothers.
Just why the interests of unmarried
women and of mothers should be any
more antagonistic that those of
bachelors and married men is not
made clear. Moreover. whatever the
perils of spinster domination, we can
never knew them, for wives and
mothers will always constitute a ma
| jority. While arguing that because, of
woman's greater variability, mo man
may claim properly and completely to
understand any woman" Mr. Heape
urges that man shall continue to rep
resent her politically--in other words
that he shall continue to do the think
ing and the legislating for fellow
being whose needs and whose point of
view he fails to grasp.
This author believes apparently
that woman's desire to. impose her
notions of morality upon man Is re-
spons'ble for what he calls the
