IS URGED
IN NEGROES EDUCATION
G. M. Thomas of This City Talks to
Farmers Alliance of North
ern Virginia.

Active cooperation with state and
federal authorities as regards edu-
cation was urged upon the Farmers
Ailiance of Northern Virginia Nero )
meeting today at the Manassas Indus
trial Institute, Manassas, Va. by
CHARLES NJ. Thomas, chairman of .le
executive committee of the Teachers
Association of the Dis ,rict of Colu1.iL IA
The subject chosen by Mr.. Thomas,
who is also one of the staff of the
Washington Normal School for Colored
Youth. W; The Negro and the late"
lie set forth the special work being
done II the colored normal school here
for those of its students who pre-
pairing for work among the 1868 ne
gro pupils of Virginia, so per cent OF
"hom are in rural schools.
Where Weakness Exists.
The alliance was shown that weak
ness exists in any state which induces
one-sided development by imposing
areincial conditions. such as over en-
phasfzing any single pursuit.
Such states, declared Mr.. Thomas,
develop castes" instead of permitting
men TO distribute themselves in vari-
Gus occupations according to their
capabilities and preferences.
Members of the alliance were advised
10 make themselves and their people
SO valuable an asset to Virginia that
their opinions respecting the trend and
interests of the state would be asked
ratner than NEGLECTED.

Not a German VassaI.

The claim that Turkey is bound to
pass under the sway of Germany is
absurd. Have Austria-Hungary and
Italy passed under the sway of their
powerful ally in the alliance?
The matter of foreign schools is sim
pie enough. We propose to give these
institutions the status enjoyed by them
in the United States. the management
continuing to be independent. All we
wished to accomplish by the abolition
of the capitulations was the elimination
of the small states within Turkey
created by the capitulations.
"I do not assert that these will never
be needed. but the time has come when
Turkey is anxious to extend to all with
in her borders the protection and guar
antees given by other governments.
Apprehension in that respect would be
equivalent to denial of all we have ac-
complished in the past six years. Our
critics overlook the obstacles which
have been met with success by the
strong, rejuvenated Turkey"
The grand vizier answered questions
in excellent English, directly and terse-
ly. The interview was over coffee and
cigarettes and the grand vizier's de-
meanor was exceedingly pleasant and
most democrataic.

Ward, took first place. Cornell. how
ever, is never really beaten, accord
ing to the tradition that prevails on
the hilltop at Ithaca. Defeated one
year, it turns to and tries harder the
next season. Coach Courtney never
loses faith in his successive oarsmen.
He is training now the second gen.
Grafton of Comedians, but yesterday
he was too i'll to see his lads pull
out ahead of the remarkable young
men from the west, the Leland Stan
ford crew., newcomers on the
Poughkeepsie course, the heaviest
and tal1est crew on the river this
year, and possessing great power in
the boat. 1t is now recognized that
it was doubtless Cornell familiarity
with the course that won the race,
and that the Stanford boat would
perhaps have been showed over the
line ahead but for too long a post
ponement of the final squirt. How
ever this may be, this years race
brings promise of an even more thrill
ing contest next year, and meanwhile
no one will grudge Cornelrs four
tenth win.

Open Trailers.

Making permanent the suspension
of the mo trailer" rule, the public
utilities commission has conceded a
material point to the traction COM
panies, which claimed that it was i'm
possible prohtably to operate trailers
with separate conductors. If this
privilege is confined to the open cars
there will be little danger to the pub
lie. The closed car trailer, however.
is different proposition, and it is
questionable whether it can safely be
permitted on the basis of one conduc-
tor for train. With open cars one
conductor can command view of all
the entrance points, particularly if
passengers are kept off the running
boards as at present. 1t is desirable
that each traction unit should carry
as many passengers as possible with
out dense crowding. Owing to Pc
culiar conditions of existing track
age it is doubtful whether the head
way between cars can be materially
reduced during the rush periods
By using the open trailer a larger
number of people can be carried on
the same Roadway. and this is emf
nently desirable. No rule, however,
should be made which adds to the
dangers attendant upon car opera
ton,

Indiana.

Those election scandals in Indiana
, have been very dislocating. so to say,
in the matter of political ambitions.
Dom NJ. Roberts. convicted at
! Terre Haute and now in prison, was
an aspirant for governor and thought
to have an excellent chance for the
democratic nomination. His politi-
. cal career is at an end. He over
reached himself in an effort to
strengthen his machine, and lost all.
The indictment of Thomas Tag

Cornell Wins!

Cornell wins" Again the familiar
call sounds forth from the historic
Poughkeepsie course. where for TWEEN
ty-one years crews representing
American universities have been ply
ing their oars in gallant struggles for
supremacy. Fourteen times now has
that call been sent forth after the
boats have crossed the finish line.
For the past two years, however, it
was not heard. for Cornell was beat
en-, in 1913 by Syracuse and in 1914
by Columbia. Once before it had
happened that another crew had won
twice in succession, in 1899 and 1900,
when Pennsylvania, under the coach

hees played the part. and with much
success. Hendricks, Mcdonald and
VOORHEES, reached the Senate, and
Hendricks also the vice presidency.
,, English sought both places. but
failed. He was Gen. Hancock's run
ming mate in 1880. His ability was
! of high order, but his temperament
was too cold and unresponsive for
campaign purposes, as both he and
his party discovered.
Marshall, Shively, Kern and Tag
CART have composed the later big
four. They rescued the state from a
long republican control, and have
been we'll rewarded. Marshall is
where Kern strove to be as Mr..
Bryan's running mate in 1908. Kern
and Shively are colleagues in the Sem
ate, and Taggart has a national repu-
tation as a party manager. He con-
Quoted the Parker campaign in 1904,
and is now a member of the demo-
cratic national committee. Every
member of the quartet has had as
surances of appreciation at home.
If the charges now pending should
permanently impair Taggart's influ-
ence and force him out of his pres
ent prominence in the party, there
would still be left a big four to the
Hoosier democracy. Gov. Ralston
would step into the vacancy. He has
made friends while in Office, and is
ambitious. In fact he is thought to
have his eye on the Senate; and if
Mr.. Kern is transferred to the fed
eral bench and the state remains
democratic Gov. Ralston may reach
goal.
Indiana has not been so stirred in
long time as at present. Not only
have many men of prominence been
brought under grave charges, but in
designations threaten others. The
end is not yet, and there is no tell
ing what the situation will be when
the end is reached.

The Summer Camps.

Washington must maintain its
charity summer camps this season,
as in the past. There can be no re-
treating from this advanced position
in the campaign against disease, no
Encouragement of lines" OF all the
benehcent enterprises sustained by
the capital this is one of the most
necessary, and it should be the pride
of the citizens that this work. which
has saved many lives during the few
years of its continuance, is develop
ing season after season to include
larger numbers. But it should also
be a point of pride that the funds
necessary for them are supplied
promptly and voluntarily. There
should be no necessity for urgent
calls, for emergency appeals. 1t should
only be required to announce that
the summer camps are soon to open,
and that they will cost such and such
a sum of money, to have that money
supplied speedily and without pres
sure.
The annual charity demands upon
the people of Washington are not
heavy, for there is comparatively lit
tie distress here, owing to the fact
| that this is not an industrial COM
munity, subject to the fluctuations OF
fortune that result from the employ
ment of large numbers of people in
the trades. These demands. such as
they are, constitute no serious tau
upon the purses of those who are
blessed with a margin beyond their
actual need. They have become SO
systematized that it is possible TO,
| the charitable citizen to make an an
nual appropriation, so much for win
ter distress calls, and so much for
summer needs, and another amount
perhaps for individual cases. There
are those who prefer to give their all
in winter. when the cold is severe
and employment is at an ebb. but
the summer charity is equally urgent
| for the heat is as bad as the cold
and in certain conditions of life il
takes an even heavier toll.
Let the summer camps this year
be financed fully from the outset, Sc
that those who are in charge and are
responsible for the care of the
women and children sent to them will
be assured without anxiety regarding
the meeting of bills.

The Collar.


That collar, oh, that collar!
1t is worth at least a dollar
To behold thing so gloriously gay
How its wearer would regret it
Should cyclone ever get it
And pick him up and watt him far
away!
1t looks, somehow or other,
As if some ones little brother
Had been parted from his pretty
Sunday suit.
As they spread it out and trim it,
That new collar is the limit
In the way of mems apparel. sweet
ly cute.
That collar, oh, that collarl
It's enough to make you holler
As it floats along the street in jaunty
pride.
1t is fashions new creation.
It's paraded with citation
And modern summer man is just
inside.
We thought his trousers funny
Were too little for the money
As they showed his ankle half way
to the knee
But that collar is a wonder,
And it makes the man in under
Look like sailboat drifting out to
sea.
