by two executive committeeman from
each state where the newspapers JUS
tify it. They are to hold their next
executive committee meeting i'll Bos-

This matter will be decided at the
coming Boston meeting.
A throng of colored men and wom-
en-, which packed Bethel A. NJ. f.
church at Baltimore to its doors, was
stirred to conduct an active campaign
for recognition in the state to improve
their health conditions and properly
care for their sick and infirm by sew
eral prominent speakers.
1t was the opening session of the
first public health conference of the
Maryland Colored Health association
under the auspices of the medical and
chirurgical faculty of Maryland.
Resolutions were adopted by unani-
nous vote to petition the next legis-
lature for adequate provision in the
state for the isolation of all classes of
colored people suffering from pulmon-
airy tuberculosis.
Among the speakers were DR.. Will
liam III. WEIGH, one of the leading
medical men of the country, and DR..
Booker T. Washington. one of the
greatest Negro educators in the coun-
try. The meeting was scheduled to
begin at eight o'clock and $50
o'clock there was a crowd outside
the church. Within ten minutes after
the doors were thrown open, shortly
after seven O'Clock, the edifice was
filed. So dense was the throng out
side at eight o'clock that it was neces-
sary to lock the doors. 1t was esti-
mated that several thousand persons
were turned away from the doors.
A direct appeal was made by all
of the speakers to be Clearly and to
guard against disease as well as to
continue to make strides for ad-
vancement. Doctor Washington con-
graduated the Negroes of Baltimore
on their educational facilities. What
you get from the city in the way of
education is in the right proportion"
he said, 'as the total population of
the colored man is Is per cent and
the money spent on the education of
the Negro is 10 per cent of the total
appropriation for schools"

SCHULTZ LOST TO ANsoNs.
Pitcher Suffers From Scarlet Fever
and Nav Never Play Again.

and May never RAY N9d's
The second serious blow to the An
son pitching staff was felt today when
| Manager Frank Richards received
word from Pitcher Schultz that ne
would be unable to report for the prac-
! tice season, and it was likely that ne
might never play ball again, as the
result of an attack OF scarlet 1eVer'
which has so impaired his eyesight
that the physicians fear no can not
recover his vision sufficiently to permit
him to pitch successfully.
This loss, coupled with the desertion
Of Beard, has caused Manager Rich
ards to sign two new moundsmen to
complete his staff. The Anson man
ager has had string on two good
prospects for some time feeling he
should retain grip on the men to
fortify himself against such an emer-
gency as he now faces.
The new men who have accepted
terms are Gus Lehman and A. Gruno.
The first named is husky lad with
q reputation as spit-ball artist. He
is an Indiana boy. and comes on the
recommendation Of Catcher Ryan and
Infielder Anderson. Lehman was
sought by Three-I league managers,
but perferred to come to Marshalltown
with his old acduaintanc.s, who de-
clare he can make good in this league.
Gruno comes from Elgin, Ill., where
Manager Richards saw him work last
fall in a game against Belvidere. He
has great speed and is regarded as a
conner. Belvidere was helpless before
him in the game witnessed by Rich
ards.
The old members Of the staff are all
reported to be in excellent condition,
however, and Richards will have four
tried men on whom he can rely. Stat
terry writes that he is climbing the
Black Hills daily, and was never in
better health. The left hand star is
very optimistic. and believes he will
have the greatest year of his career
Maui, full of confidence and determi-
nation. declares that he Will this year
climb to the majors or he will quit the
game for all time. Richardson has
notified Richards that he is taking
daily workouts and expects to be IN
condition when he reports, here April.
7. Harter, who has written frequently
during the winter, has given his pitch
ing arm attention thruout the winter
months. and declares that he will show
the Central association what he really
can do when in good health and con-
dition.
Manager Richards has been obliged
to release Jude, finding no place to
DISPOSE Of him to advantage and be-
ing unable to retain him under the four

MEN ARE NEEDED.

From The Dallas Evening JournaD
Miss Stearns Of Milwaukee is quot
ed as having declared in the course Of
an address before the Dallas Wom-
ans forum that the day nears when
men and women will unite in furth-
ering civic advancement, instead OF
laboring separately toward a like
end.
There seems small reason why such
concert Of effort Is not now applied.
Men and women work harmoniously
for promotion Of the general veal,
but not in a single organization; yet
neither is able to score hoped for re-
suits without the aid of the other.
To the women, however, must be
accorded the palm Of initiation Of
movements which are designed TO
better the everyday conditions Of the
people, and to their active and un-
tagging efforts must be attributed
much Of the civic Identification, i'm
proved sanitation and pure food
achievements Of the time. Along the
lines the womens organizations in
the smaller cities have labored to es-
pecially notable purpose, while the
men have devoted attention to COM
mercial advancement.
Woman has set a pace in progress
that man would do well to emulate.
Better still. he might accomplish
more by falling in line and Joining
effort with those who have already
given earnest study to many Of the
practical and important problems
which affect the lives Of the people.

history Of the Balkans, this former

~ HE suggestion has been
u made that in addition to
placing a road bonding
proposition on the ballot the
people be given the alternative
of voting for a high road levy.
But there is no way whereby
the people may vote on the
subject of a road levy. The
counties do not have the use Of
the initiative and referendum
except where such powers are
expressly granted by law.
Under the bonding law the
people Of county have a right
to initiate a bonding proposal.
They have no law whereby they
may initiate any proposal re-
garding a tax levy and as the
East Oregonian understands
the law such a step would be
impossible.
Other reasons why the bond
ing plan is regarded as more
desirable than a direct tax are
that it falls upon all assessable
property in the county, includ-
ing cities exempt from regular
road taxes, and distributes the
burden over a longer period.
When work IS done that will
last for a great many years it is
only sane to have the future
bear a portion Of the expense.
The plea that we should not
burden the future generation
i ridiculous TO businessmen.
When such work is done by pri-
vate corporations it is always
through money raised by bond
issues. All our railroads and
other utility companies rely up
on borrowed money for exten-
sions and Improvements. By
its own statement the electric
concern which operates here
and elsewhere in the northwest
Is bonded for more than the
physical value Of its property.
If our public utility corpor-
ations can succeed by burden
ing the future generation"
why cannot a city or a county
safely follow the same prac-
tise to a limited extent, partic-
ularly when the savings TO be
brought about will soon equal
the cost of the work?
