Negroes Attack Election Laws.

Washington, Sept. ga bitter fight
against alleged race discrimination in
various sections Of the country is to be
made shortly on behalf Of negroes be-
fore the Supreme Court.
The Oklahoma and the Maryland
grandfather constitutional amend
ments, by which thousands Of negroes
have been DISTINGUISHED, will be attacked
as unconstitutional. An effort will be
made to have the Oklahoma Jim
Grow" legislation annulled. An at
tempt will be made by Tennessee negro
organizations to be permitted to use the
name Knights OF Pythias for negro
lodges, as we'll as white lodges.
Frank Quinn and ]. J Beal, two cleo
ton officials, have been convicted OF
conspiring to prevent several negroes
from voting at the Congressional cleo
ton Of 1910 in Oklahoma. This was
done on the basis that the grand
father" clause was unconstitutional.
The Eighth Circuit Court Of Appeals
has expressed doubt as to the validity
OF the clause and has asked the SUI
preme Court to pass upon the question.
The Oklahoma grandfather" clause
made it necessary for all persons whose
ancestors were not qualified to vote in
1866 in this country to be able to read
and write in order to vote.
In Maryland damages have been re-
covered against two election officials
who refused TO allow negroes to vote.
The officials were enforcing the grand
father" clause.
The Oklahoma Jim Grow" law re-
quires railroads to provide separate
coaches for whites and negroes equal
in every way in comfort and conven-
fence. Five negroes seek to enioin the
railroads from enforcing the law. They
lost in the lower federal courts, which
went SO far IS to hold that railroads
need not furnish sleeping cars for me-
groes il there was not sufficient demand
by negroes for such accommodation.
For several years a fight has been
waged between white and negro lodges
Of Knights of Pythias in the South over
the use Of the name. The negroes have
brought the matter tcsthe Supreme
Court, having lost their cause in the
courts OF Tennessee.

CATARRH SUFFERERS
GET IMMEDIATE AND EFFECTIVE RELIEF
BY USING HYoMEI.

GET IMMEDIATE AND EFFECTIVE RELIEF
BY USING HyoMEI.
Hyomei is natures true remedy for
catarrh. There is no stomach dosing
yotf breathe it.
When using this treatment, you
breathe healing balsams and effectively
reach the most remote air cells Of the
throat, nose and lungs, the catarrhal
germs are destroyed-quick and sure
relief results.
Hyomei often restores health to
chronic cases that have given up all
hope OF recovery. Its best action is
at the start Of the disease when the
breath is becoming offensive, and con-
slant shifting, discharges from the
nose, droppings in the throat or that
choked up feeling begin to make life
a burden. AT the first symptom OF
catarrhal trouble, surely use Hyomei.

The Dignity of Mexican Politics.

There is to be presidential election
down in Mexico in few weeks, but
thus far the number OF candidates has
been surprisingly few. The notion that
the office should seek the man seems to
have vacated all the other countries
where popular preferment determines
such matters and concentrated in Mexi-
co. The result is there is no unseemly
scramble for place down there. On the
contrary, the Mexican politicians are
behaving with rare dignity. Not only
do they decline to thrust themselves for
ward and with shameless egotism urge
their peculiar fitness for the post, but it
is fair conclusion that the average
Mexican, il he saw the presidential Office
headed for him, would vault his caballo
and gallop madly away
Getting away from the average, we
find the exceptional Mexican attitude to-
ward the presidency in the noble expla-
nation of Felix Diaz whom Huerta late
ly told to come back and run for Presi-
dent: II am soldier, said the valiant
Felix, land / obey the commands of
my superior officers" There was no
citation in those words, there was no
vainglory or conceit. Indeed, there was
a touch OF humility as though Felix
recognized his unworthiness OF the honor
conferred upon him.
Since then it is understood that Huerta
either never sent that cable or, II he did,
has withdrawn it. Anyhow, Huerta
now assures the rest Of the world that
he has no candidate for the presidency
of Mexico but, instead, will maintain
neutral attitude. Whether this decla-
ration will dispense the modesty which
hitherto hag restrained Huerta's fellow
countryrnen from obtruding themselves
into the contest will shortly be disclosed.
Our Judgment is that It isIikely to have
an exhilarating effect on the situation
and that in every Mexican city men Of
distinguished parts will be advised by.
their friends to announce themselves as
candidates and enter the race vigorously.
At The same time, without rejecting
upon the sincerity Of Huerta, we inn
agine a good many Mexicans will still
cling tenaciousIy to the sentiment that
they would rather bealiye than be Presi-
dent. st. Louis Republic.

Thaw May be Extradited.

Concord, N. H., Sept. 2S.-A men,
Der OF the Governors council to-day ex-
pressed the opinion that Gov. Felker
would decide in favor Of the extradition
OF Harry X. Thaw. 1t was admitted,
however, that the briefs to be submitted
may change the legal aspect ofthe case.
Should the Governors decision be adj
verse to Thaw, it will merely have the
effect of throwing the case into the
Federal Courts, where the matter would
probably hang fire for several months.
William Travers Jerome, who, ac-
cording to rumor yesterday was on his
way here with q new indictment against
Thaw, failed to arrive to-day and is not
expected now until the end of the week
on account OF the postponement OBJ
tanned by the Thaw attorneys for filing
