LOUISVILLE OFFICE, No. 312 W. Jefferson St Room 3 which they fail to use, they are grudg W. V. PENN, Manager. SATURDAY, MAY 25, 1901. It seems that some folks, actually, can continue to make a statement which is, and they know it to be, ab solutely false, until they believe it themselves. For instance, Gov. C. B. Aycock, of North Carolina, in a speech made at the annual dinner of the North Carolina Society in New York the other day, said: "That the suffrage law amendment to the con stitution of the state was not really aimed at the Afro-American as an in dividual." But the governor is wrong. Suppose the legislature had made a law that only red-headed men could vote, would the auburn-haired, white haired, black-haired and blonde-haired men believe that such a law was not aimed at^ them? The fact is the whites* of the South, having the power do so, have determined not to be ...ur to their Afro-American brothers, under any circumstances. ?f It is understood that the main''ob- ject of the Alabama constitutional convention now in session is to frame a suffrage provision which will ex clude from voting just as many Afro Americans as possible while affecting as few wfiites as possible^ The alleged fear of "Negro domina tion" is a mere bugbear used to scare I the ignorant whites. There never has been any such thing and no such thing is likely to ever be. There has never been anything like a fair, equitable share of the political plums given to the Afro-Americans of the South,, nor of the North. The white man wants it all and that's the dause of the trouble. In the South the voting strength^ made it possible for the Afro-Americans to help themselves to some of the things they wanted, so the whites want to stop them from voting- and divide the plums among themselves alone. In the North, while in many cases the Afro-Americans ac tually hold the balance of power, ingly given just enough sops to keep them from open revolt. Nothing is ever settled until it is settled right, so will it be with this "vexed prob lem" and the sooner the whites, who are the trouble breeders, come to this conclusion the better for all. They are' not going to have alto gether smooth sailing in the Alabama constitutional convention if there are only a few delegates like General Wil liam C. Oates, who says: "The suffrage clause should not, in terms, exclude any one from the elec tive franphise en account of race, nor require an educational or property qualification, but intelligence and good character should be made the test. And, in order that no injustice be done, an appeal should be given from such decision to the courts. J'The disfranchisement of the whole Negro race would be unwise and un just. The Negroes constitute a large majority of our state population over 800,000. Among them are many honest, industrious, and good citizens, capable of understanding the issues of a campaign. Such men are patriotic. 'When volunteers. are. wanted to fight our battles they furnish their quota. "Who will say that Booker Wash ington, Council, Grant, Calhoun, and hundreds of other citizens of Alabama shall not vote if they choose? Shall they be excluded merely because they belong to the colored race? I say, UO." V.'"' ""_ HeI told Miss Anne Teelc, in a joke, that when she gmlled it was all I could do to keep from kissing: her. SheWhat did she do then? J1 HeShe went into hysterica. To which the APPEAL says, amen! The twentieth anniversary exercises of the Tuskegee Normal and Indus trial Institute, Tuskegee, Ala., which rtakes place May 26 to 30, ought to 'furnish an object'lesson to the'members of the constitutional convention which will be of value to all parties con cerned. Few, if any other, institu tions in the state can show like prog ress in the past two decades .as this one managed by the people they say are too ignorant to exercise the right of suffrage. There is a feeling of gratitude throughout this land for the improved condition of the first lady of the land, Mrs. Wm. McKInley. Avarice starves its possessor to fat ten those who come after, and who are eagerly awaiting the demise of the acTen cumulator.Greville. NJKGRO BLOOD BARS WKDDIN'i- New York, May 19.Fashionable circles in Jersey City were stirred yesterday by the announcement that' Par the engagement between Miss Lizzie Rector and Dr. Thomas Tucker Wil kerson had' been broken because the doctor had Negro blood in his veins. Miss Rector refused to be seen by any one, but Dr. Wilkerson said the story was true: He said they became engaged last fall and that no time had been set for the wedding. Last February Mrs. Rector.asked him for some particulars about his family. "I told her the truth about it," said he. "I have some Negro blood in my veins, not much, but just a trace. I have never posed as anything but a man and had no need to tell any one that I had even a trace of Negro blood in me, but when Mrs. Rector asked me, I thought she had a right to know. Then she and her daughter decided to break the engagement, and I coiild make no objection." I Dr. Wilkerson is a graduate of the dental school of the University of Pennsylvania. He received his diplo- Mr^ in RSt 6 an ENVIABLE JohnnyDon't wisht was this sun? Torn TerryWhy? Johnny'Cause it's been loaded fer twenty years.

Our news came to us by telephone from our offices in New York. W had hoped great things of the, telegraph, but they did not materi alize. An operator looked too long upon something or other when it wa stable. Sh Knsa afteprovidings th doe oaccomplish- the war ed a greaat work in for the Frepr men of Kansas after the close of the war 3 redor b*own and the .result was telegraphic chaos, and. I think, the calaboosefor Mm. At any rate we could neither send nor receive news by telegraph. When we were told, at ten minutes after 10 o'clock, that the result was as sured, that there was no doubt of the election of the Republican ticket and that the Democratic managers had given up the fight, we drove to the governor's house. It was a long drive in the dark, and I remember that it was much colder than I had expected it to be. I had taken no overcoat with me. I bor rowed a coa'chman s-coat from the liverv Every window in the house was bril liantly lighted when we arrived. A din ner party had just risen from the table, and all were in, evening dress. The gov ernor met us at the door, and we toid him the g:ad news in the hallway. A newspaper correspondent muit be non partisan, but I think that he, as well as the other Republican managers, had been mucia nearer to worry' over the result of tlie election" than they had been willing ta acknowledge. He was greatly delighted. Under the abbreviated tail of his dinner coat hi hands worked convulsively as he marched around the room, and said: "I ain.glad! I am very glad!" Each'word was chopped off as all his words are, and the smile on his face was pleasant to our sight., then took us all into the parlor.' and asked us for fewer, details than we had expected. We had really made an effort to get all the news we could, but he did not seem to care about knowing other than the lesul.t in general. Then came the occurrence which made ma think of that Inauguration day oc casion, when the small son's cheer had seemed to mean more to him than "the fact that he'was about to be inaugu rated governor of New York. He sudden ly turned to the Sun man, while we were both frying to get bur election figures ready for him, and demanded: "What was the score of th'e football game?" The matter of his election to the vice presidency was over. He knew that he had been etected and that settled it. was no longer interested in that. He wanted to know how the football game had turned out. A curious thing happened earlier in the dry wien he went to vote. He was dis t'nctiy worried, and nervous, as he had been before the battle in Cuba began Tie forgot that it was necessary to take a blank ballot into the booth with him after he Had reached the polling place and so when he got inside he could not \ote. The reason for this did not come to his excited mind. He simply knew that there was something wrong, and asked for help. A kind hearted citizen of Oyster Bay came aJong" and showed him how to prepare and cast his bal lota thing which he certainly knew f-s well as any one could, but he was rat tled. And that is the man. is nervow and excitable. The little things of life thinks not very much about. The big things are the things on which he con centrates his mind. And he does them. -Edward Marshall, in Atlanta Constitu tion. The Jtfedlclne Habit I England. Cieorge R.
