DEATH O EJoHN 7. ROBINSON.

The morning papers of August PC
published an account of the accidental
killing of John T. Robinson by a Rock
Island train Friday night, the 25th,
and those of his acquaintance were
shocked at this sad occurrence. Mr..
Robinson was in declining health and
his eyesight had almost failed him.
His relatives of Trenton, Mo, were
notified and his sister and the two
Henry brothers came Sunday morning
and took the body to Trenton for in
terment. On Sunday afternoon at 3
o'clock quite a number of teachers
and officers of Allen Chapel Sunday
school and friends met at Countess
Undertaking Parlors to pay the last
tribute of respect to his momory. Rev.
Talton read a s%criptural lesson, prayer
by Brother Fry. after which several
spoke of Mr.. Robinson. his worth
and usefulness among those who
knew him. Mr.. A. NJ. Wilson read res
olutions from Allen Chepel Sunday
school, also the Sunday school sent a
floral offering. It was one of the
simplest services and yet very impress
siye. There was hardly a dry eye
among those present. Words of cheer
and comfort were spoken to the rela,
tiyes present and at 5:55 p. m. the

PHIL H. BROWN APPOINTED.
To Have Charge Of Publicity End Of
the National Committee for
Negro Newspapers.

The Right Man in the Right Place
and The Sun Warmly En-
dorses This Selection.
One of the most gratifying and sat
isfactory appointments yet made by
the National Republican Committee
was the selection of Phil H. Brown
of Kentucky, editor of the Hopkins
vile News, as Publicity Secretary of
the Western Division of the Commit
tee. Phil Brown is one of the ablest
writer's of the race and can listen
with more apparent interest and a
less than any colored man we ever
knew; but, o my, when he tran
scribes it to paper, his style, cogent
reasoning, and unanswerable deduc-
lions cannot be surpassed. He is
one of the most genial, courteous and
honorable men we have ever met and

Committee upon its selection.

USELESS WASTE OF WORDS

The Dispatch discussing tho school question in Alaska and the party declarations on it says;
 The federal law governing school in Alaska makes it necessary for there to be 2l children ot school age before district can be established. The Territorial law trying to correct this abuse was declared void by the Department of Justice Therefore. the Re publicans in their Territorial and their Dis trct platforms devoted one Of the longest blanks to the need Of better school facli- ties. The Democrats on the other hand briefly refer Co the need Of improvement in this line. as though the plank was of second ary consideration. The Republicans want not only schools placed in the isolated sections ot the municipalities, but desire that the Ter rtory shall have the benefit of all the high CT courses necessary for fitting It's residents
 for tasks iu life on an equal basis with chl- dren in other States and Territories It must be remembered moreover that each and every member of the Republican district legis- latiye ticket is pledged to work for this plank 0r1-aGd every plank in the Republican platform" and lot more Of similar stuff
 Pifne,
 The Organic Act specifically provides that the Territorial Legislature cannot amend the school laws. Let us assume that the Republican legislative candi- dates are the five greatest educators in America give them place above all great university presi dents and public school experts-yet they would be poweress to under the peculiar form of govern ment that Delegate Wickersham has given us and insisted that shall retain
 The Democratic platform strikes at the very root oI the question when it says:
 'NOtning IS more important than the euu- cation oi children. Our greatest duty Is to pass our experience and knowledge on 10 those who follow us. and to grant the coming generation every possible advantage in order that learning may increase and the hap pness and well being of our people progress. The Organic Act iorbids the people Of Alaska and their Legislature any control over its school system. This glaring injustice should be at once remedied"
 Any further declaration on this subject would be a useless waste Of words. The school ques. ton in Alaska. like most of the other problems that confront the Territory. is a question Of seltgovern. meut.
