TO REPUBLICANS: We are anxious to have every Republican in close touch, and working in harmony with the Republican National Congressional Committee in favor of the election of a Republican Congress. The Congressional campaign must be based on the administrative and legislative record of the party, and, that being so, Theodore Roosevelt's personality must be a central figure and his achievements a central thought in the campaign. We desire to maintain the work of this campaign with popular subscriptions of One Dollar each from Republicans. To each subscriber we will send the Republican National Campaign Text Book and all documents issued by .the Committee. Help usachieve a great victory. James S. Sherman, Chairman. P O. Box 2063, New York. CHAUTAUQUA ENDS WITH ADDRESS ON THE RACE PROBLEM (Continued From. Page One.) come hand and treated as true-Americans while the negro is discriminated against and looked upon as aliens. The Republican party, that he has served so long and faithfully has deserted him in the scramble for money. President Roosevelt is a friend to humanity, and has proven himself but he is no stronger than his party.. I predict a downfall of both Republican and Democratic parties, for they have forgotten to be gracious to the poor, and another party will rise up that . will contend for human rights. This country will need the ballot of the negro to defend its institutions in the near future." Never Produced an Anarchist. "The American white people should do all possible for the education and protection and elevation of this true and tried race which has never produced an anarchist or sought to take the life of the chief executive of the nation. Doth Northern and Southern white people are" indebted to him for faithful service in time of need and both should contribute for his advancement and seek to make a good and useful citizen of him. Past experience shows, that he can be Americanized and Christianized. The criminal element among the negroes x should be punished by law, as well as the criminal element among other citizens. The North and South should know no race or color in the administration of justice and the laws. The white people having had the advantages of civilization for a thousand years .should be an example to the n.egro in all things, especially for the maintenance of law and order. If this is not done the white race is sure to reap "what it has sown," unless history fails to repeat itself and human nature changes." Solution of the Problem. "I present the following brief solution of the race problem: 1. Christian education, and the education to begin as near the cradle as possible with the children. 2. Work industrial education, an education that will fit the negro for the kind of work he has the privilege of doing where he lives. 3. The preaching of the gospel ! among them, and the circulation of the Bible and religious and clean literature among them. 4. A higher standard of collegiate and theological education for the preachers and teachers. 5. Especially the education of the colored -woman, as the woman is the bedrock of civilization, the preserver and conservator of man, the homemaker and builder; tho devine custo-

lian of purity, virtue, religion and pa

triotfsm. C. The establishment of business and commercial schools throughout the South .where those who are in clined to do business can learn the arts and methods by which business is done. 7. The establishment of better school houses and churches in the rural districts, and the maintenance of a Gospel Ministry. The lengthening of the free school terms. 8. The ownership of property and farms, as the property owners of any race are the most patriotic, law abid ing and Christian citizens. 9. To cultivate the helpful and sympathetic relations of the Anglo Saxon race, South as well as North. 10. To abstain from the vices and crimes which come from the practice of intemperance, sports, etc." . "The negro, having the greatest opnortur.ities for a livelihood and growth, spiritually, morally, intellect ually and physically in the South, he should be encouraged to "work out his salvation with fear and trem bling," where he was set free forty years ago. And he should be en cou raged to be contented, peaceable quiet, patient, law abiding and God like. After this is done, God will take care of the solution of the race problem in his own way, and in his own good time." AN UNTITLED ADVENTURER HON. GEO. E. CLARK. OF SOUTH BEND SPOKE ON NAPOLEON. Speaker Severly Condemns Little Cor Poral" for Treatment of His Wife and Touches on Divorce Evil. Although the title of his address "An Untitled Adventurer," did not indicate it, the Hon. George E. -Clark, of South Bend, Ind., who spoke be fore the Chautauqua Monday v after noon, drew some present-day lessons from the life of Napoleon, and im pressed them upon his audience ef fectively. Mr. Clark is an attorney and is a scholarly gentleman of fine appearance. He delivered a stronV address that was not only a deep character study of the life of Na poleon but carried with it some ap plications that were timely Among other things Mr. Clark, in ferring to the divorcing of Josephine by Napoleon, which he characterized as the greatest crime of Napoleon's ife, referred to the divorce evil that s so dominent today and urged his hearers to join in the effort to amel iorate the prepailing conditions. Ac knowledging that Bonaparte was guilty of murder and if nearly every crime in the calendar in order to reach the goal of his ambition. Mr. Clark still insisted that the divorcing of a faithful, loving life, was the greatest crime in his long and bloody career and that it marked the beginning of his downfall. He raised the question of what that quality is in man that when he becomes prosperous and powerful, he often forges the virtues and friends of his earlier life, even to the wife whohas stood faithfully by his side, and puts her aside in order to satisfy an unholy ambition. Calls Him Master of Europe. Mr. Clark pronounced Napoleon one of the most remarkable men in history and the master of Europe. In discussing this subject, which has been so widely discussed by historians, he declared that" his central thought was self-confidence and that uncertainty and fear are the great enemies of mankind. No man or woman ever accomplished anything, he said, whose mind was clouded in doubt. Believe in yourself, he arged, for all who have been if benefit to mankind have believed in themselves. As examples he referred to Columbus and others of the beacon lights of history. Nepoleon Never Rested. As Monday was Labor Day, Mr. Clark took occasion to call attention to the fact that Napoleon never rested a day in his life and that he in sisted on everybody keeping busy. He pronounced him the greatest mili tary character the world ever sawbut declared that he was at fault in his purpose, in his object in life, which merely the satisfaction of his vanity and self-gratification. He did nothing for the benefit of his fellow men. He looked mpon humanity as a mere means to use In accomplishing his ends. No human being, declared Mr. Clark; ever had such -a volcanic energy or ambition. Overthrow the Work of God. No .point of special importance In his career of the Corsican was left unmentioned by Mr. Clark. He call ed attention to the marvelous pre sumption of Napoleon; the complacency with which he placed upon his head the crown that had never before been worn, but by a price of the blood royal; how he planned to con quer Asia and set up at Paris, later greatest government in the world's history. The battle of Waterloo, which was the downfall of Napoleon was pointed out as the direct result of the working of God thriush the manifestations of nature, designed to defeat Napoleon and snatch him from the high place that he had assumed and which he was not properly filling. The speaker here turned aside to call attention to the career of many men in humbler walks who assume power and prerogatives to themselves that are not properly theirs, and who he said, eventually meet their Waterloo. Touched Upon Divorce Problem. Mr. Clark's address was well re ceived by an audience of good size and his remarks In reference to divorce were liberally applauded. He believes the very foundation of the nation Is being struck at in the pernicious practice of granting divorces so indiscriminately and he is giving his influence as a public speaker and as a lawyer to remedying this evil.

F-Nsfafoas Caused by Deformltlea. Of the close connection between fashion and deformity there are many examples. Through illness Philip the Good had to have his head shaved. Shaven heads, accordingly, perforce, became fashionable at his court. The daughters of Louis XI. hid their very large feet in long dresses; hence trailing gowns. The wife of Philip III. set the fashion of high collars in disguising her. long neck with a wimple. Henry Plants genet introduced boots with extravagantly curved toes to conceal a growth on one of his feet. Louis XIV. wore a wig to cover unsightly wens on his head, while James L adopted voluminous trunk hose, aft erward fashionable to hide hip dis ease. - - '

Curious Facts About the People's The treasury; department is the most Important branchy of the government next to the state department. It is the fiscal agency f the people. At its head is the secretary of the treasury, who, for a salary of $22 a day. Is responsible for the collecting and. disbursing of $1,500,000 every r day,'-in: the year and for the custody-jail the time of more than $l,f000,000,000 In cash and bonds. The various secretaries of the last forty years have handled altogether the Incomprehensible sum of $45,000,000.000. What Is more, during all that time less than $250,000 was lost in the treasury department. During any one week of the present year the treasury officials expended more than was required to maintain the entire public service for the whole year 1805. The money collected by the treasury last year, in round figures, was $540,000,000. The total amount expended In the same twelvemonth was $582,000,000. We spent thus $42,000,000 more than we took in, but full $40,000,000 cf the excess of expenditure over revenue is accounted for in the single check given in payment for the Panama canal property. The biggest bill collected by the treasury was $201,000,000 for customs, the second largest bill collected was for $232,000,000 for Internal revenue, then $9,000,000 was taken In for tbe sale of public lands and $37,000,000 for various small matters. The largest bill paid In the same time was $142,000,000 for pensions, then $115,000,000 for our army and $102,000,000 for our navy. To Indians there was paid a little matter of . $10,000,000 and for the interest on the public debt $24,000,000. Finally, the .treasury expended $18G,0C0,000 for mere miscellaneous "items." If we count all the dollars paid out by the treasury since Mr. Roosevelt entered the White House we find that the sum Is equal to the sum of all the money In the country at the present time, or about $2.000,000,000.

"COTTOII IS KING" III EXPORT RECORD

Department of Commerce and Labor Issues Statement for Fiscal Year. IT COVERS ALL ARTICLES COTTON EXPORTED AMOUNTED TO $400,000,000, AN INCREASE OF THIRTY-THREE PER CENT. IN FIVE YEARS. Publishers' Press! Washington, L5ert. 3. "Cotton Is king in the export record of the United States for the fiscal year just ended." This is the introductory sentence of a statement just issued by the department cf commerce and labor. The oflcial statement, says: "The total value of raw cotton exported for the first time crossed the $400,000,000 line and exceeded by far the value of any ether article of merchandise sent out of the country. The exports of breadstufTs of all kinds aggregated but $156,000,000, those of provisons but $211,000,000 and those of iron and eteel manufactures but $161,000,000. The value of cotton exported during, the last five years increased very rapidly. It was not until 1901 that it crossed the $300,000,003 line, and in a short five years period it has grown to more than $400,003,000, .or an Increase of 33 per cent. This growth is due in part to an increase in the quantity exported, but in part also to the advance in prlco, since the quantity exported in 1903 was about 700,000.000 pounds less than in 1903, while the value was $21, 000,000 more than in 1905."
