Very strange things are happening
these day, Among them is the fact
Of the appointment Of two Negroes on
the inaugural committee. It may be
said, however, that the two appointees
are straight democrats and will rem
der service in housing the colored
people who may attend the Inaugural
tion Of the next president Of the
United States. It is very fitting that
this recognition should have been ac-
corded colored democrats. Their la
bors throughout the campaign were
most effective in aiding the triumph
of Governor Wilson at the polls and
this light recognition OF their valua-
bic services is deserved. The south
ern papers have not noted the fact as
yet but doubtless will when the time
comes.-The Durhma Reformer.

MISFORTUNE.

has destroyed its main building. II
is sad news to the graduates and
friends of this school. For the past
two or three years, under the ener-
getic lead of that untiring worker
and able president, DR.. l.. M. Dunton,
great efforts have been made to raise
an endowment fund for Claf1in. A
fire at this time in particular was
most unfortunate. Instead of direct
ing all energies to the endowment
fund, attention now must be given to
the where withal to erect again a
main building. The building will be
erected. The president says so and
with him saying means doing.
Friends of education should help will
lngly, for Clafiin has certainly justi-
fed her existence by her splendid
work.-The Southern Indicator.
THE STAR has always c~ontended,
sees no reason to change it's views in
the premises, that no political party
can succeed in the United States
without the aid of the Negro.
When the Progressive Party drew
off from the Republican Party, it car
ried with a great majority of the Ne
gro voters throughout the land, but
when that party saw fit to repudiate
the Negroes support in the South, it
drove thousands Of these voters to the
support of the party which has al
ways been considered the Negroes
worst enemy, and when Governor
Woodrow Wilson assured Bishop Wal
tiers that the Negro should be treated
fairly, he won their support and
was triumphantly elected president of
the country.
Today the Negro considers that he
owes fealty to no party, except the
party, which will vouchsafe to him
all the rights and privileges guaran-
teed to all other American citizens,
and no matter what has been the poll
cy of a party in the past, 1t will hold
out no inducements to receive the Ne
gro's uspport in the future, unless
that party shows that it recognizes
the Negro as a part of the country

considered the organization in each

countries. The establishment of an in

which would coordinate the studies
was another matter taken up.

HE Future of Mexico.

A foreign contemporary observes:
During the long reign of Porfirio
Diaz Mexico earned the reputation of
being prosperous and conservative
country. Property rights were care
fully guarded, and foreign capital en-
tered with confidence the Mexican
field. rightly trusting in the protection
afforded by a wise and strong govern
ment. The Mexicanss themselves came
10 trust in other forms of investment
than land, mines and mortgages. In
a. word, the country gave every token
of holding its place. and maintaining
its prestige as the premier Spanish
American nation. But with the politi-
cal change brought about by the
Madero revolution and the introduce
ton of constitutionalism for which
the nation was not prepared, perfect
saturnalia of brigandage and other
forms of crime set in. Mexieo,s sad
case illustrates the folly of interrupt
ing peaceful development by the in
lection of crude political ideas. 1t is
a record of destruction that Mexico is
now making. Will she ever return to
the peaceful policy of the exploitation
and conservation of her resources ?
Has the temper of the Mexican people
become DESTRUCTIVE?

tossers tossed and swatted the sphere
And the score, oh, yes, that's i'm
portant. With the aid of a few of the
more skilled in mathematics who held
consultation at the close of the con-
test. it was found that the knights
of Columbus lacked by one tally of
scoring a quarter of hundred runs.
while the X. P's. said their whitfield
stick showed two inches. However.
no one disputed the score or the scor-
ers and all went home happy. the

they had won, and the brother order
