It has a pathetic significance, and in a certain respect might be construed as an expression of utter hopelessness. It is a melancholy thought that every woman who wants a mate cannot be mated, but the figures over which the members of the Southsea conference pondered seriously and sadly demonstrate convincingly that more than a million women in Great Britain are facing not a theory but a mate-less condition. There ought to be in every country enough marriageable men to supply the demands of the fair sex for conjugal partners. "Ill fares the land to hastening ills a prey" wheji a woman can't get a husband because there are.

not enough men to go around. Yet a woman is not necessarily "superfluous" because she is unmarried, although we are frank to gay that the majority of the gentler sex do not indorse that view. If she cannot herself realize the greatest happiness of life, she may, if the spirit moves her, devote her life to good works, to unselfish service, to the promotion of the happiness of others.

TUESDAY, NOVEMBER. 2, 1909. SIXTEEN PAGES. IAST WORD WITH THE IX- TELLIGEXT WHITE VOTER. Today, Mr.

Voter, you arc called upon to decide an issue of great Importance to the State of Maryland and the city of Balti- more. That Issue Is the suffrage amend- and business-like manner to suit the in- i dividual convenience of each customer. i 3 ment. -M Today, Mr. Voter, the power to make MEMBERS OF i i -Ti mtYur I unci ASSOCIATION 1 FOR OUT-OF-TOWN SHOPPERS' the State of Maryland a white man' State, and the city, of Baltimore a white man's city, is in your hands.

You have it in your power either to bind an illiterate and vicious negro vote forever upon the State of Maryland of to make that electorate a i free, white and intelligent one. JwSw GOMPRECHT BENESCH Do you want your vote in the future a vote which you cast after due considera- iion and reflection to be killed by the ts vote of an. Ignorant negro who always votes the same ticket, regardless of that ri ticket's candidate, regardless of Its policies Do you want to raise the standard of the electorate by eliminating a factor which even the Republicans themselves must admit Is In Itself a bar to a more lntelll gent suffrage? The only excuse offered for the continuance of this factor the il literate negro vote Is that it Is the bal ance of power. Is not that excuse In itself an insult to honorable and Intelligent voters? i Is the Illiterate negro vote necessary as a check on the white citizens? If it is, why do the white Republicans oppose a direct primary? It Is because they fear negro domination in their own party, except at general elections. If a negro is not lntel- Hgent enough to vote in a Republican primary, why should he vote in a general 't election? Today, Mr.

Voter, you can purify the electorate by voting for the suffrage amendment. You can make Maryland a white man's State, and make each and every white man's vote count instead of being I killed by an Illiterate negro's ballot. A LIFE WORTH LIVIjVG AND REMEMBERING. There died in New York on Sunday last I--- a man who was of the highest type of philanthropist, and yet he was compara tively unknown to the public outside of the metropolis. John S.

Kennedy was born in Scotland in 1830. Since 185T he had lived iin the United States. He was 79 years old 'at the time of his death; he had amassed great fortune in manufacturing and in banking, and it is said that he gave to charity more than $100,000 for every year 1 of his life. Yet his benefactions were not to the four corners of the earth. i-His last donation was intended to signalize the fiftieth, anniversary of his wedding.

It a gift of $1,000,000 to one of the great hospitals of New York, and Mr. Kennedy, it is said, asked the reporters not to men- tion it. While Mr. Kennedy gave as secretly as pos sible to charitable institutions in New York, he associated himself openly with the work i and management of several institutions. lie believed in employing trained lntelll gence in the work among the poor co-operation among the charitable agencies of New York.

At his own expense he erected Z. a building in the metropolis In which the leading organizations for the relief of the poor are provided with offices practically 3 free of rent. He built and endowed a home for nurses. He established a permanent endowment for the training of charity "There is," he wrote, "the same need for knowledge and experience in re KTT.R RAVEH -ojifo rf th Wilson S. Boyer.

WILLIAMS SHOE CO 103 W. Baltimore sU a pound made the heart of Kansas bleed with jealousy. With the fleecy staple up at this dizzy altitude Dixie's prosperity might throw the agricultural riches of the Jay-hawker State into the shade. But a report on the poultry industry in Kansas has restored confidence to the Jayhawkers. It is estimated that the hens of that State are turning out a net profit monthly to their owners ranging from $1.61 to $1.78 per hen.

When every housewife in Kansas has her poultry yard stocked plentifully with hens of this amazingly fertile breed, there will be a colossal addition to the wealth of the State. On the strength of the profits derived from wheat and corn Kansas farmers, it is reported, are making the automobile factories work overtime to supply their demands for the latest styles In autos. With the average hen adding $20 a year to the wealth of her owner Kansas may be able at an early day to enjoy luxuries which will stagger the imagination of the old-time Jayhawker. WILL THE NEGRO COME OUT OF THE WOODPILE TOMORROW? In one respect the Republican politicians of the grade that prefers to appeal to Ignorance for support rather than to intelligence have conducted their campaign against the amendment adroitly. They have kept the negro out of sight." They have kept him carefully concealed in the woodpile.

But if the amendment Is defeated today, will be come out of the woodpile tomorrow? Would he consider the defeat of the amendment a victory of his race over the white race and conduct himself accordingly? MARYLAND MUSINGS. By. the Bextztown Bard. Miss November. Arching instep, clicking boot heel, Leather gauntlet, jaunty hat, Miss November walks on Charles street With a lavender cravat Rosy cheeks and lips of laughter, Skirts that swing above the boot, All the golden weather dancing To the tinkling of a lute Autumn afternoon on Charles street, And the blithe crowd on parade; Like a rush of whirling leaflets In a brown November glade.

Lady Laughter, how she sparkles Dashing spirit, how she gleams Through the street a noble vision, Down the lane a flame of dreams. Miss November walks on Charles street, And the heartbeat of the throng Wakes again with youthful passion, Sings again an April song: Queenly phantom, sprightly shadow, And the old street like a mile Of the golden gates of Eden, With the roses there to smile Miss November out on Charles street, Purple matrons rolling by Mistress Mansion busy shopping, With a golden day to buy Prudent Papa promenading, Stepping spry and glancing quick With his little green Fedora And his silver walking stick Up the hill the fountain splashing High and solemn over all Washington upon his column, And the steeple of St. Paul Up and down, a weaving shuttle, Threads of youth and threads of song; Here the Cardinal out strolling, With a holy thought along Gay Miss Morning, with her mother, Tripping to a sweetheart tune, And a kid glove on the corner Bowing to Miss Afternoon Autumn in the drowsy valley, Miss November in the street, And a sound of golden laughter, And a click of whirling feet Lady Lissom, Lady Jocund, Breath o' bloom and sweep of air Miss November walks on Charles street, And the heart forgets its care Arching instep, clicking boot heel. Leather gauntlet, jaunty hat, Arm in arm with silver footstick And his lavender cravat Ah, the lady hath her magic, And the dear street, how it stirs When she passes in the autumn In that golden grace of hers Mint to me only with thine eyes I Regular autumn weather, feels as it used to do Under the mists of the meadowlands where the sunshine sifted through Regular autumn weather, with glory on every hand, Painting the trees for the festal of the harvest-home of the land Regular autumn weather, and merry the songs that fall When love beats time to the golden chime of the fiddle upon the wall. Freezer makes the heart grow fonder.

Amend early and often SUNBEAMS. Vote early for the amendment. What will the earth be to us when 220 East Baltimore street is no more! This Is the day to lift the electorate of Maryland to the white man's level. Let the good amendment work go on. Get the hookworm disease and be in fashion.

527 South LaKewooa avenue, on Thursday afternoon, at 2 o'clock. Relatives and friends are resorctfnllv $ti- vited to 1 attend the services, at Zion LuthRn Church, avenue aua union street. a house in the, block between Twentieth and Twenty-first streets, then what would happen? Every house in that block would be va cated by the present occupants as fast as they could haul their furniture Then each house in that block would be cheap enough for a negro to buy or rent. The loss of value on 15 or 20 houses would be enormous. Not long ago some negroes were nego tiating for the purchase of a beautiful house on the corner of Lanvale and Me-Culloa streets.

White people living near there had to buy the house to save their property. The house adjoins the Western High School, and the negroes were trying to buy it to use for a boarding house for colored people. This thing is going on all the time. The defeat of the amendment would be notice to all outside negroes that they are needed here. "to maintain the equilibrium be tween the parties" to Insure good government, to restrain the white people.

These are the only considerations in the nature of arguments that the opponents of the amendment have offered. Of course, there are some persons who think that the white race is incapable of self-government and that if there were no negroes to restrain them, monkeys should be taught to put bal lots in the box. This is a matter of opin ion, and each man has a right to his opinion. The negro in Washington, Virginia and jlsewhere will have the right to believe, from all that has been said here, that the defeat of the amendment would be an invitation to him to come to Baltimore and help to give the city and State good government. Each1 family that moves here will need a house to live in.

The exclusive and opulent citizens who live in a block where houses cost from $15,000 to $75,000 are safe for the present. But sup pose the incoming negro family settles down where values are not so high, in a row occupied by white famllies what then? OPERA AND SYMPHONY OR CHESTRA FREE TO MR. HEARST'S AUDIENCES. Mr. William R.

Hearst has introduced an Innovation into political campaigning in New York for which many voters will rise up and call him blessed among candidates, albeit they will not give him their support at the polls today. Mr. Hearst closed his campaign on Sunday night with a meeting at Madison Square Garden. Candor com pels the admission even on the part of his political foes that it was a very large meeting. A due regard for the truth also requires the explanation that the Garden was crowded not because of Mr.

Hearst's magnetic qualities as a spellbinder, not because the voters are in sympathy with his candidacy, but for other reasons. To be brief, Mr. Hearst gave a free concert to the public and availed himself of the opportunity to deliver an oration. There was singing by two women famous in the world of opera. There was an orcnestra renownea throughout the land.

New Yorkers usually pay about $2 a seat for the privilege of hearing such a concert. On Sunday night they were admitted free. Of course, they had to put up with Mr. Hearst's speech, but they were willing to comply with this condition in consideration of hearing stars of grand opera in a repertoire of thrilling music. In combining the features of a first-class operatic and orchestral performance with his spellbinding Mr.

Hearst has made a palpable hit with the music-loving voters of Gotham. They will crowd Madison Square Garden whenever he offers them this inducement. A dull speech is an af fliction, to be sure, but it can be endured when the song birds of opera and a sym phony orchestra of the first class are added as a compensatory feature. Mr. Hearst has made no reputation previously as a philan thropist.

He has loomed before the public merely as a man with an incurable pro pensity to run for office. But if in his cam paigns in the future he sticks to the precedent which he established on Sunday last, his candidacy will be robbed of its terrors, he will always be assured of an audience, and he may even take rank with the altruistic benefactors of the human race. There will be thousands of New Yorkers ever ready to take advantage of his generosity, to lend him their ears for half an hour while he speaks, and to forget all that he said in the delights of a high-class musical performance. To be sure, stars of opera and symphony orches tras might be used to a better purpose, but as the public gets a great deal for nothing and Mr. Hearst gets the mitten on election day, there i3 no basis for serious protest.

Indeed, the New York public is to be con gratulated upon the opportunity which Mr. Hearst's yearning for office affords it of hearing music of beauty and uplift without paying tribute at the box oflice. VOTE FOR THE AMENDMENT FIRST. The appropriate square for voting for the franchise amendment is printed on the extreme right-hand 6ide of the official ballot. The ballot may be so folded that the voter will not see the amendment square when he first unfolds it.

It will be pru dent, therefore, for him to' open the ballot to the full width and first make the mark for the amendment, and then turn back and vote for the candidates. The ratification of the amendment was the paramount issue in the campaign and Is the paramount question to be settled by the voters today. It, therefore, deserves the first place in the voter's mind and thoughts when he goes in to vote. More than this, each voter should remind his friends and acquaintances of 'the amend ment. When the Poe amendment was sub mitted four years ago several thousand voters ignored it altogether, voting for the candidates but not on the amendment.

The ratification of this amendment is the most momentous question which the voters of this State have oeen called upon to decide since the submission of the Constitution of 1867. That Constitution relieved the white people of Maryland of the disabilities and disfranchisement put upon them by the Republican party. This present amendment will relieve them from the thraldom of the negro vote. It will relieve the southern counties of the great and humiliating load that the brave and high-spirited white people of that section have carried upon their shoulders for forty years. It will relieve them, as well as some of the wards of Baltimore city, from a blighting condition put upon them by old Thad Stevens Congress in Reconstruction times.

This may be the last opportunity for relief. If the amendment is defeated today, it may not be in the power of the white people of this State ever again to rid themselves of this burden. In a few years following, if the amendment should be defeated, such an inrush of negroes may take place that it will require a white majority of 100,000 to relieve the State of the burden, and that would be out of the question. The time may shortly come, if this amendment is defeated today, that thousands of white people tcho voted to defeat it will have occasion to repent bitterly of their action. "SUPERFLUOUS WOMEN." A "National Conference of Woman in session at Southsea, England, has been trying to plan a better future for the "superfluous women" in the United Kingdom.

In Great Britain, according to the London Mail, there are exactly 1,244,558 more women than men a distressing condition, it appears, in the judgment of the fair The term "superfluous womeu" ia ought to be great, for they are of the salt of the earth. To describe them as "super fluous" is wanton mockery of the purest and noblest of the sex. AN OPPORTUNITY TO REBUKE AN UNFAITHFUL SERVANT. Voters in the Fourth legislative district have the opportunity of a lifetime today to demonstrate the value of the ballot box. They may permit the negro voters of the district, voting era masse and unthinkingly, to send Mr.

Albert M. Sproesser to the State Senate or it is in their power to keep that gentleman at home. If Mr. Sproesser has made an able, alert, progressive City Councilman the white vot ers of, the district can have no quarrel with the negroes' choice. But if he has disappointed his constitu ents, if he has failed to aid them at crit ical times, when the very life of Industrial and -x home interests in his community seemed at stake; if he has ignored and in sulted the leading business men and em ployers of labor in South Baltimore, xas they assert with great positiveness that he has; If he has turned his back upon the hundreds of owners of small homes and given a deaf ear to their appeal, as they charge that he has, then it will be a sorry com ment upon the independence and public spirit of the.

white men of the district if they permit the negroes of the Seventeenth and Twenty-second wards to force upon them, as their State Senator for four years, a man in whose public usefulness they have lost confidence. It is a peculiar situation that confronts the white voters of the district. If they meet the issue In the right way, the thundering protest of their ballots, a long step will be taken in the direction of se curing better representation both at Annapolis and in the City Hall. MR. STEAD'S LAST BID FOR Notoriety.

Mr. William T. Stead announced his pur pose recently to summon the spirit Of William E. Gladstone from the "great beyond" to assist the Liberal party in Great Britain in its campaign to retain control of the Government. Mr.

Stead now says Mr. Gladstone responded cheerfully and with alacrity to the call. Yesterday the London Chronicle published several columns purporting to be a stenographic report of an interview between Mr. Gladstone and Mr. Stead, obtained through the instrumentality of a "medium." Thoughtful English men pronounce the interview nonsensical to the last degree.

Mr. Stead maintains that it is simon-pure, unadulterated Glad-stonianism, that the "Grand Old Man" of British politics is quoted literally. He is represented as making a savage onslaught on the House of Lords and as giving the following battle cry to the Liberal party: "Away with this inert mass of unrepresentative opinion. Let my people, let my old warriors, appeal to the country on this definite issue." The striking characteristic of Mr. Gladstone's pronouncement is that in spirit and in form it is in exact accord with Mr.

Stead's previous declarations on the subject. Mr. Stead is regarded in England as the most solemn-visaged sensationalist in the. British Empire. He is a man of innumerable fads and "isms," and spiritism is his latest diversion.

He professes to be able to communicate with the shades of the departed through a medium whom he designates as "Julia." This woman, with alleged supernatural powers, brings about long conversations between Mr. Stead and illustrious statesmen who in life would have walked miles to escape the briefest kind of an Interview with Mr. Stead. With suffragettism, spiritism and the German war scare Joh4 Bull is having a terribly hard time keeping his wits about him. LIMITATIONS ON NEGRO SUF FRAGE IN MARYLAND TOWNS.

In the last few years various local laws have been enacted by the Legislature restricting the suffrage In Maryland towns. Nearly all the negroes in Annapolis, in Frederick, in Snow Hill and in Belair have been deprived of the ballot at town elections. This the Legislature can do. But it cannot restrict the suffrage in State or Federal elections without a change in the Constitution of the State such as is embodied in the pending amendment. Today the people of the State will decide whether this amendment is to be ratified and become a part of the Constitution, or whether it shall be rejected.

In arriving at a decision a consideration of the result and effect of negro disfranchisement in the towns we have mentioned should be helpful. The testimony which has come to us is all favorable to the experiment of disfranchising the ignorant negroes In the town elections. Not one voice, from either Democrat or Republican, has been raised against it. The Stjx has been informed that any proposition to restore the suffrage to those who have been disfranchised in those towns would be opposed by Republicans as well as Democrats. The general opinion is that the limitation of the suffrage to the white people and to those, negroes -who own property has been a benefit to every Maryland town in which it has been tried.

So greatly has this restriction of the suffrage commended Itself to thinking people that in formulating a plan for establishing a town government in Catonsville a restricted suffrage has been recommended. A committee of which Mr. John C. Rose, United States District Attorney is chairman, recommended in a report that no man be permitted to vote In the town elections except those owning property worth at least $250, or whose wives own that much. This provision would disfranchise almost the entire negro vote of A man who is not to be trusted to vote for Mayor and Council of a small town, surely is not to be trusted tq vote for Governor, judges, Legislature, County Commissioners; for those officials who make and construe and execute the laws, levy and disburse taxes and exercise the police power.

Another important matter which tends to justify the disfranchisement In the towns is the fact that those negroes who have lost their votes at the town elections are not resentful nor dissatisfied; but accept the law with complacency and contentment. They are intelligent enough to know that they share In the benefits of the improvements and better local government which has followed the elevation of the electorate. THE KANSAS HEN AS A SOURCE OF WEALTH. A few days ago cotton jumped to 15 cents a pound and there was a flutter of excitement in all countries dependent upon the United States for their supply of this staple. In -Kansas the news of the advance in cotton seems to have aroused a spirit of envy among the farmers of that State.

They have made good crops of wheat and corn and are getting top prices Everything or the Home.

It is a great moral question, a ques tion of good citizenship, of patriotism, of quiet, intelligent," orderly government. It fis a question of the selection of public (offi- cfals by the people upon their merits of rthe decision of political questions upon their merits rather than by appeal to race preju and the fear of negro crimes, negro disorder and negro domination. The rati- of the amendment will purify our politics as nothing else. It will enfran chise the two political parties and enable them to be independent. It will enable white men to vote according to their con science- and not be driven by their fears i and race prejudice.

Every white Republican who loves his State and desires her progress, her peace 'and her prosperity should vote for the amendment. He has a double incentive to cast his vote for this great and beneficent reform. If he is a sincere believer in the principles of the Republican party, he knows that by voting for the amendment he will not only be aiding his State, but strengthening and emancipating his party, 1, In the western counties of Maryland the. Republican party is a white party. At "all local elections it is a matter of indif-' ference to the taxpayer, as a taxpayer, which party wins.

In either event his property is safe and he is sure of decent government. Would it not be best for the Republican party in all the counties to be in that situation? This Is the opportunity for sincere Re publicans, who are sincere patriots and good citizens as well, to free their party from negro domination and the ignominy a tick attends its.
