Loyalty i. Racial Quality.

Loyalty is a racial quality of the
negro and one OF the most splendid
examples of loyalty in all history was
displayed By them in 1861 to 1865
when they stayed Loyalty by the fam
lilies of the soldiers who fought to
keep them In slavery. Another quail
ity which is a genuine principle OF
christianity. is love. that the negro
possesses this quality, as evidence l
would call to mind the fact that dur
ing the civil war the negro's work
and devotion not only supported the
white families but the southern army.
And in all the south not one woman
in all those homes unprotected by
white men, had cause to fear. The
negro race has been in this country
2s3 years, and through all those years
they have stood outside the inner
sanctuaries of life. There IS no ne
gro child who can say, what every
white boy or girl can say. I can enter
any door which my character and abii-
ity allow me 20 enter Notwithstand-

This spring the voters of the city authorized
two new school buildings and an extension

the expenditure OF $685. 900 for this one item
The public has been impressed with the an
nouncement that Keokuk is doing everything in
it's power to make the city efficient in every de-

ing of the Police Commissioners yester-
day afternoon, that a Christmas tree

city's most prominent residents has been

which to purchase candy, fruit, nuts,
toys and clothing for the children OF
those families who are not able to enjoy
the good things which fall TO the lot of
other children.
Up TO last year this resident had
been placing this money in the hands
of Chief Black because the members of
the police force are better able to pick
out the deserving poor. Last year the
fund was turned over to the community

Allies FIGHT FOR
Line ON WAY TO ARRAS
By The United Press.

PARIS, Dec. advancing along
the La Bassee Canal, the allied forces
are today endeavoring to push for
ward in this region in the general
movement to gain control of the i'm
portant highway from Roulers to
Lille, Lens and Arras.
The German resistance in this sec
tion is reported to have been greatly
weakened by heavy Withdrawals Of
troops which have been sent to the
eastern front or distributed along
other points OF the western line
threatened in the past week.
The German divisional headquarters
have been moved from Roulers to Thielt
as a result of the capture of Passchen-
daele by the British A determined at
tempt of the Germans to retake this
town was successfully resisted by the
British troops who are now said to be in
complete possession of the place and
making preparations for the shelling OF
the German trenches about Roulers.
Along the coast and eastward, through
Dixmude and Ypres, the allies are fore
ing fierce attack against the German
trenches. Despite shelling from the al
lied warships off the coast, the Germans
have shown the greatest tenacity in
holding their lines in that region, but
are now declared TO be slowly giving
ground, withdrawing out Of range of the
guns of the fleet.
Indian and Canadian troops in the
British lines are keeping pace with the
English and French in their advance.
The Indians have stormed several lines,
il is declared, without hardly firing a
shot resorting solely to the use of their
knives and bayonets in driving out the
Germans.
