An authority on the cotton trade.
the Cotton Gazette of Liverpool, points
out that the exports of American cot
ton to q certain group Of north Europe
neutral countries increased the last
cotton year over the preceding 1853
$40 bales. The figures show increase
from $4,000 bales to 1888, 800 bales.
The question at issue is whether this
increase directly or indirectly bene-
fited one group Of belligerents to the
detriment Of the other group. Sweden.
Holland, Norway and Denmark were
the countries benefited, in this order,
Sweden importing 71O.0sO bales aga INST
29,O5O the year before and Holland
4S6,s20 against 34,130 the year before.
The big increase may be due to shrewd
speculation, for it is conceivable that
the commodity might be cheap In the
United States, yet be scarce and very
dear when wanted over there. Again.
these countries may now manufacture
for home consumption goods formerly
bought abroad and may even be SELL
ing In markets formerly absorbed by
countries now at war. The problem
seems too big to be solved justly
through ex parte proceedings by one
interest involved.

The drift from country to town con-

although country dullness must be TAX
en- into account. The telephone. auto
and machine music have done much to
atone, but there is yet room for i'm
provement in making country life more
attractive. A few widely separated
railroads and good wagon roads show
what communications will do for the
inland regions. Good roads will peo-
pie the solitudes, but no roads will
leave even garden lands uninhabited.
Roadbuilding philanthropy would not
be waste of money.

The majority of the people of this
country have long stood for a firm
peace policy and for small armament.
When the present crisis is passed opin-
ion may revert with greater force than
ever to old ideals. The lesson of the
world war serves to emphasize wars
horrors and the blessings of peace.
Theoretically the civilized world stood
for peace up to 1914. Now England,
France and Russia are preparing to
fight to the bitter end, and Italy frank
ly avows that she fights for territory.
It is not likely that the Teutons will
inaugurate and head a peace move
ment, so the world is practically COM
mitted to the policy Of strife. In re-
casting our thought as to armament it
is well to take into account the world s
reactionary trend today and whether
our geographical isolation is a guar
ranty Of immunity.

world must be lifted. Kingdoms will
rise or fall in proportion as woman
uses her influence. Nations will as
cend or descend in the scale of civil
zation in proportion as woman deports
herself.
The most hopeful sign of racial de-
velopment is that which begins within
the race. Less than twenty years ago
the colored women caught the vision,
and it is leading them on to the perfect
day. The National Association Of Col

ton of this city president, are all united
In heart, concentrated in purpose and
marching In a solid phalanx to the tune
Of advanced womanhood.
The one thing which characterizes
the women's organizations throughout
the country and distinguishes them
perhaps from some others Is that they
are more directly concerned about
character building than any other fea-
ture. They feel that a woman of
moral worth will experience no diff
Guilty in becoming financial factor.
Besides, they feel that the morality Of
the women Of any race must be its cor
nerstone If succeeding generations are
to build successfully on the foundation
as laid. Unless the pedestal upon
which the statue of the race must rest
is properly constructed 1t will crumble
and fall.
The colored women all over this
country have opened the drafts Of
their hearts that the fire Of love may
burn more brightly and that it's rays
may be a lamp to the feet and light
to the pathway of unfortunate woman
hood. That their consciences have
been quickened and their convictions
deepened is evidenced in our great city

WILBERFORCE UNIVERSITY
MAKES GREAT PROGRESS.
Authorized 40 One Of ohio's lnstitv.
tlons For Training Teachers.

The combined normal and industrial
department Of the Wilberforce CO.,
university has been placed on the ap
proved list Of state normal schools.
This announcement was made recently
after an inspection by Mr.. Williams
from the ONCE of the state superintend,
emit Of instruction.
This result is one which the @. N.

emit william A. Joiner, has been work
ing for number Of years. The course
was formerly too short to place the
school on the accredited list. but 1t was
finally brought up to the required
standard.
Graduates Of the normal department
are now entitled to four years pro.
visional certificate without examina.
ton, and after twenty-four months of
successful teaching they are entitled
to a life certificate good in thirty five
states.
Now that the state department of
public instruction has given this de.
partment full recognition as one Of the
states authorized institutions for train
ing teachers. the legislature Of Ohio
has determined to properly equip the
normal and Industrial department for
its work.
The legislature, which recently ad.
journed its session, made liberal appro-

The building Is under the direct su-
