On November II, after day Of intense

mons, the Earl Of Derby, director of re-
cruiting, made this statement:
eff young men physically fit and not
indispensable in any business of natural
Importance or any business conducted for
the general good Of the community do
not come forward voluntarily before
November 30, the government will, after
that date, take the necessary steps to re-
deem the pledge made November 2.
"Whether man is indispensable or not
to his business will be decided not by the
man or his employer, but by competent
authorities and tribunals which are being
set up to consider such cases."
The pledge Of November 2, referred to,
is that Of Premier Asquith, who announced
in the house Of commons that if young
men did not come forward voluntarily and
enlist, "other and compulsory means
would be taken before married men were

CHURCHILL QUITS BRITISH CABINET
AND GOES TO WAR

1t was officially announced on Novem-
Der II, that Winston Spencer Churchill,
chancellor of the Duchy Of Lancaster had
resigned from the cabinet and would join
the army in France.
At the outbreak Of the war, Mr. Church
i'll was serving as first lord Of the British
admiralty, and filed that office until the
formation Of d coalition cabinet in May.
He has been severely criticised in con-
nection with the Dardanelles campaign,
receiving blame for the failure of the ven
ture. While relegated to a position of
less responsibility in the cabinet on tide
of disapproval, it is now generally con-
ceded that it was Churchill who saved
England from defeat at sea and perhaps
invasion in the early months Of the war,
through the fact that two months before
the outbreak of hostilities, he had mobil-
lied the scattered British feet and kept
it modified.
The former lord of the admiralty has
accepted full responsibility for originating
the campaign against the Dardanelles,
and adds
eff there has been any operation in the
history of the world that, having been
taken, it was worth while to carry through
with the utmost vigor, fury, sustained
flow Of re-enforcements and utter disre-
gard Of life, it is that operation so daring
ly begun under Ian Hamilton by the i'm
mortal landing at the Dardanelles -
Mr.. Churchill states, however that in
stead of pushing operations vigorously,
the British army, on the peninsula, had
dallied along all summer ''within few
miles of decisive victory" He states
that an advance there would have
squelched Turkey, determined the policy
Of the Balkans, and forestalled the pre-
sent German drive in that region Serbia
would have also been saved. He places
the blame for the ill-fated Antwerp relief
expedition, for which he was also CEN
sured, entirely upon the shoulders of Lord
Kitchener.
Mr.. Churchill believes that it will now
take two years more to win the war.
In rendering his resignation, he said he
could not occupy a position of general
responsibility for war policy without any
effective share in it's guidance and con-
troll, and did not feel able in times like
these to remain in well paid inactivity.

VACCINATION CAMPAIGN
LAUNCHED IN CHICAGO

It is reported that "heroic efforts" are
to be made to Immediately vaccinate
10000 children in the public schools of
Chicago. This decision was reached by
Health Commissioner John Dill Robertson,
after a conference in his office with as
sistants.
The health commissioner admits that
but one case of smallpox exists in Chicago
at the present time He pleads, however,
that in Hammond, Indiana, and other
places in the vicinity of Chicago, the dis
ease prevails and that every child in the
city that has not been vaccinated must
Immediately submit to the ordeal, in or
der to prevent an epidemic.

SIMPLIFIED SPELLING ADOPTED
BY MANY PAPERS

There has recently been a rapid growth
in the adoption Of the twelve words pro-
posed in 1898 by the National Educational
Association, for use in slmplifed spelling.
The list, which was also endorsed by the
Illinois Teachers Association, is as fol-
lows: tho, altho, thru, thruout, thoro,
thoroly, thorofare, program, prolog, cat
alog, decalog, and pedagog.
Less than'a month ago, simplifed spell
ing was adopted by the Illinois Newspaper
Association, and it's members urged to i'm
mediately put the twelve forms in use.
Several of the leading papers of the state
have since made the change. Some of the
largest agricultural and industrial papers
in the country have adopted their use,
and it is believed that it is only question
of time until the old spelling Of these
words will become obsolete.

where some prominent men are opposed
to Negro advancement, the achievement
seems little short Of the miraculous. The
gist of DR.. Washington's teaching was
this:
"Success depends upon ability to do
something useful, to perform some kind
Of service that the world wants. Teach
the negroes how they may best help them
selves; then no one will need to help
them"
Instead Of railing at the whites and
calling upon the colored men to assert
their rights, he applied himself to the task
Of eradicating those negro characteristics
which are the greatest obstacle to their
advancement His idea was that they
should prove their worth and win the re-
spect and confidence Of the whites, and
they would then have little difficulty in
procuring their rights. He taught that
every negro should be in Independent cir
cumstances, have his own property, and
keep out Of debt.
Dr. Washingtons work was practical,
and he has done more to solve the negro
problem and alleviate the condition OF
his race than any other man. He was not
only known throughout America, but to
the entire civilized world. He numbered
among his friends three presidents of the
United States
The question which arises is, where is
there another man who can take his place?
Mrs Ida B. Wells Barnett has said:
"Our race has lost it's greatest leading
man. Booker T. Washington was great
not only as a race leader but he was one
Of the greatest orators-I mean oratory
in it's broadest sense, and he was the peer
of any publicist before the country today.
GAS constructive force on the lines of
industrial education he was the equal of
any living educator. We are wondering
where we will find his successor. There
is no negro before the public today who
has the confidence of the influential white
people that DR.. Washington had and that
is what makes our loss so great.

NO WARNING GIVEN ANCONA,
STATES ITALIAN GOVERNMENT

Reports relating to the sinking Of the
Ancona are so contradictory that it has
been very difficult for Washington Off
cials to learn the exact truth The Ital-
ian ambassador in a written statement to
Secretary Lansing, positively asserts that
the liner was sunk without warning of
any kind Austrian officials, on the other
hand, state that the submarine gave notice
by firing shot across the bow of the ves-
sci, and that the liner crowded on all
speed and attempted to escape.
Two other Italian liners, the Frienze
and the Bosnia, have since been sunk by
submarines flying the Austrian flag.
Particulars are lacking, but it seems that
each carried but small number of passen-
gers.

GREAT BRITAIN WARNED OF
BANKRUPTCY

Premier Asquith has asked the house of
commons for another vote of credit
amounting to $2OOO,OOO,OOO He said
there was no reason to believe expendi-
lures during the next two months would
exceed $2O,OOO0O0 daily, and that the new
vote Of credit might be expected to last
to the middle of February.
In the house of lords, on November 10,
Baron Davenport said that Great Britain
could not go on indefinitely, as she had
been, and maintain financial solvency. He
added that the situation was one OF great
gravity. He expressed the belief that the
country would have to resort to forced
loan. "There is no doubt that the next

BRITISH HOSPITAL SHIP SUNK

The British hospital ship Anglia was
sunk by mine in the English channel on
November II. One hundred men, most of
them lying seriously wounded in their
cots, lost their lives
The collier Lusitania, which was nearby
at the time Of the accident, upon going
to the assistance Of the hospital ship, also
struck mine and foundered
The Anglia had 385 men aboard, among
them being 13 officers. It will be remem-
bered that this was the ship which recent
ly conveyed King George home from the
war front, after his meeting with an ac-
cident in France.
At present writing, reports are meager
and indefinite, but it is believed that the
mines which sunk the two ships we're
among the many which broke adrift in
the recent great storm.

ANTI-TIPPING LAW BELIEVED
UNCONSTITUTIONAL

Municipal Court Judge j. J. Rooney. of
Chicago, is quoted as saying the present
anti-tipping law is "absurd and cannot
be enforced" for technical reasons. He
has dismissed cases to test the validity of
the law, when the assistant states at
torney declared that the law was uncon-
stitutional.
In discussing the matter, the assistant
states attorney said:
"What is the use of meeting popular
clamor by the enactment of such laws.
The legislature ought to have committee
of lawyers to pass on the legality and
constitutionality of bills before they are
submitted''
