Tlio cvc of the election furnished a suf
ficient excuse for a slight Injection of politics
Into the iircccodlngB of tbo Hoard of Educa
tion last night. At least Rcvornl members
declared In unmistakable terms that It was
politics , but Liml , who W B rosvonslble for
the trouble , os vigorously flsserled that there
was no polities' In It whatever. The difference
of opinion arose In reference to a resolution
which wan Introduced by Lunt toward the
clnso of the meeting. The pi-tumble rcclt&d
the ndvintngcs of civil uorvlco reform as
applied to school board affairs , and also the
allegation that the present majority of the
board was In favor of that principle. It then
declared tliat certain members of tbo bo&rd
who wcro candidates for re-election were male-
Ins tholr campaign on the Usuo of divorcing
politics from the schools that they should
bo gratified and that some sort of civil ser-
vlfio reform should bo Instituted , Lunt moved
iho addition of the rozoliUlon and also that
a upcrdal commlttcu of three bo appointed to
make A rc-fxjrt on the matter at the next
n.eothu ; .
Anderson vigorously objected to the
rrfnrenpR to mr-mbsra who wore candidates
for re-election. JIu declared that It was at
ILASI Improper to bring uch matter Into the
board , ana ho denounced what he termed
< IH an "Insinuation" aimed at these can-
dldaieo. Ho movpil that that part of the
[ irtamblo bo stricken out. The matter was
debated at sotno length and with considerable
beat.
I lint declared that ho had not Introduced
the resolution from political motives but that
iho charge had been repeatedly alleged In
.varJ moztlngs that the present majority had
wasted the school funds and need the posi
tions In the service of the board as rewards
for political st'iiport.
ANDERSON'S MOTION DEFEATED.
A few rather | icr onnl remarks were exchanged -
changed during the debate ami at the end
Anderson's motion to strike out was defeated
( ) j n strict majority nnd minority vote :
Ayus AuJerson , Gratton , Jordan. Moore ,
Penfold 5.
Noes lcnnl , Hess , Irey , Soire , Van Gil-
dor. Winter President Lunt 7.
The original resolution was adopted by tbo
same vote reversed , the minority explaining
lie opposition by the atatemcnt tha1. It was
Ir. favor of the l rlnclplo of civil ucrvlce as
applied to schools , but would not vote Tor
the resolution while It contained a covert
reflection on the republican candidates for
Membership In the board , llamlh.iucr , Irry
and Winter were designated as tbo commit
tee.

The matter of the appointment of Judges
and clerks of election was brought up Just
before the board adjourned and for a time
) t lookci is though the matter would bo
Allowed tii go by default. There wan
KOir.o question whether under tha new law
the solo power of appointment lay with the
count } ' judge. Attorney Covall advised the
board that It did not and that to neglect to
make the required appolntmonts might In-
val.iilnte the election as far an the school
uoird WOB concerned. Hess said that Judge
IJaxtor had asuured him that the board must
not take any action nnd Ponfold's motion
to approve the Hat of Judges and clerks as
appointed by Judge Daxter was defeated by
a tlo vote , President Lunt voting with the
minority. There was a vigorous protest from
the members who were sandldites , but a
motion to adjourn was put and carried. Hut
the minority carried on the campaign and
President Limit Immediately ctllc-d the board
to order tn special session. Irey and Sears
Dually changed front and the liat as sub
mitted was approved.
During the routine proceedings the report
of Secretary Gillan In regard to nonresi
dent pupils was read and referred to the
secretary and superintendent of Instruction.
ANOTHER JANITOR 'RESIGNS.
The resignation of Frank Hcacock as Jan
itor of the Columbian school was accepted
nnd Hen F. Ackers was elected as his suc
cessor.
On rccommcndivtlon of the High school
committee the secretary wss authorized to
expend ' 120 for swords and belts lor the
commanding olllccrs of the High school cadet
battalion. This was In response to a request
from Lieutenant Ord , who suggested that
tilnco 'tho ' cadets had raised sumclcnt funds
to equip three companions with arms the
board ought to help them out to the extent
of the officers' equipments.
Thcro was n long and tedbus debate over
the request of a number of patrons of the
Windsor sihool to have their children trans
ferred to Park. This transfer was granted
toy Superintendent Pearse at the beginning
of the year , but they were afterwards sent
back by the committee on teachers and ex
aminations. This action brought out n vig
orous protest from the parents , which was
referred to the same committee. Last night
the committee presented a report sustaining
itself and this was the subject of the debate.
The report was practically nullified by the
addition of an amendment which provided
that tranfers could be Issued In casts In
vhlch they ucro desired , and -it waa then
adopted.

night listened to an address by Miss E. C.
Carter of New Orleans , who described the
llfo of "Tho lllack Woman of the South. "
( Miss Caitcr Is herself of African descent
and spoke from a life-long acquaintance
with sootherr. ccndltlcns , She graduated a
few years ago from the Now Orleans uni
versity , nn Institution supported by the
iFroediren's Aid and Educational society of
the north , and his a I nee gained some dis
tinction among her people ai a lecturer.
After the Invocation by Rov. C. F. Hates
of South Omaha , the double quartet of the
church was heard In a well-rendered selec
tion. Ilev. J. C , C , Owens , thu resident pas
tor , then Introduced Mlas Carter , who epoke
in a crnvlnclng and pleasing way.
MlMi Carter gave a sketch of the condition
of her countrywomen thirty years ago. She
said that the iHiitantvvonian of Europe , who
might have be r > iraV ; id with cattle In the
fields , felt JiwjiM'MSlilca fall when she
reached our uhoro Nct so with the negrcss ,
vlio was doomed'from birth to a llfo of toll
and shame , 'She ' could hold no relationship
.inviolate and was the mother only of pro
duce for the Held and auction block , Mlts
Ctarter traced the uplifting of her down
trodden sisters until now , she said , no ex-
coptlon need bo made tin their case when It
waa said that the American women wcro the
/IIK'St in Iho world. Instances were given
to show that negro women were the peers
of any as tcachors , waiters rnd homo-keepers.
A distinction was made between negroes
nnd colored pecplb. Miss Carter said that
lit 18UO tliero wrro &u , uuu or tun latter lu
America an ! 4.000000 ncgroca , The negroes
were the field hands and laborers , whllo
their brothers of mixed descent were house
servants. The women of the latter class
worn the nurses of the children and the
confidents of the youth. The BO thousands of
mixed race owned more property than tbo
millions of the other class. Now , said Mlsa
Carter , dlutlnctloivi were abolished and all

South Omaha News
The last republican rally rally of the
ircscnt campaign was held nt Plvonka'a ball ,
Twenty-fourth and L streets , last night and
[ he Imll proved far too small to accommodate
the voters gathered to hear the addresses of
Senator Tliurston and others. Quito a number
of ladles were In the audience. Frank
Strykor , chairman of the republican city cen
tral committee called the meeting to order
and announced that as Senator Thuraton , the
speaker of the evening , would be a little late ,
: io would call upon others to address the
isscmblage until Senator Thurston arrived.
Mr. Cutler of Omaha was the first speaker.
Ho said that a year ago ho worked and
made speeches In South 0 nah a In the Interest
of the free sliver ticket and had helped to
organize the German American Free Silver
club. Since that time he had seen the fallacy
of the free "silver movement and had
returned to the republican party. In con
nection with local politics Mr. Cutler said
.hat the object was to get good men In olTlce.
The republicans , ho said , hid nominated nine
good men and ha hoped tt see them elected.
John C , Wharton was then Introduced and
stated that he was glad to welcome his friend
Sutler hack to the republican ranks. Ho
thought that many moro who had strayed
away a year ago would como buck Into the
'old this fall , as they had seen by this tlmo
.ho ' utter worthlcfisness of the free silver
lartlcs. Mr. Wharton made a strong talk
'or the exposition bonds. He told of the
necessity for Douglas county to be loyal to
the exposition. "Don't let It bo said , " ex
claimed the speaker , "that the voters of
Douglas county have no confidence In the
exposition. Good times arc coming , Vote
the bonds by all means. " The speaker then
called attention to the fact that each prop
erty owner's share of the tax would bo very
Ight , considerably less tnan $1 , Such an
opportunity , In his opinion , could not afford
.0 bo lost , an In case the bonds carried there
would be plenty of work for all. Speaking
of the election today Mr. Wharton s-ild that
t was a. grand cpportnnlty for the voters of
this county and state emphatically ex
press their confidence In the present republi
can administration. Ho talked of what
10 termed the mongrel ticket nnd urged
; hose present to stand by their colors
and vote the straight republican ticket. The
mongrel ticket , ho s-ild. stood for humbug
and deceit. At this point In Mr. Wharton's
remarks Senator Thuraton entered the hall
snd wan heartily cheeral.
After being Introduced by Chairman
Stryker , Senator Thutstor. acknowledged the
greeting offered and then said that some one
had told him that there were no republicans
In South Omaha. A voice from the audience
cried , "Ho told you a d d lie. " When the
cheers from thla slight Interruption sub
sided , Senator Thurston raid that In his
opinion South Omaha was the very place
where men ought to be republlcora now , no
matter what they had been before. A po
litical party , said the senator , that does net
interest Itself In bringing better time ? Is not
worth belonging to. When the people find
that there Is a party that gives them better
times worklngmen ought to stand by that
party. The speaker odd that he could liot
understand how It was that people that
v/orked for a living could be fooled twice by
the democratic party. The democratic talk
of low tariff , paid Senator Thurston , was all
very well for the farmer , who was told that
as ho sold his wheat In Europe he should be
able to purchase necessaries there at a
greatly reduced cost over the same articles
produced at home. That kind of 'talk was
very well for the farmer , but how the work
lngmen bad been led to believe such stuff
was moro than ho could see and never could
understand. The republican iparty always
brought prosperous times , because it stood
for the plan that labor to be performed for
the people of the United States should hi
dorw by the people here. It was not until
President Cleveland's second term that the
people witnessed the condition of affairs
brought about by the low tariff. FIve years
ago there was moro < demand for labor thnu
over before , more machinery was rattling
nnd moro wages paid. All that was changed
when Cleveland's low tarill policy went Into
effect and this condition of affairs remained
until a short time ago. Six months ago ,
when the policy of the government was
changed , times began to bo better , and In tile
opinion of the speaker -would continue to
Improve. This change had been brought
about lr > a measure by the passage by con
gress of the Dlngley bill. Some of the argu
ments used 'by free silver speakers a year
ajo were token up by the speaker and dis
cussed , the audience being shown the fal
lacies of these arguments. The free silver
question , said the senator , would never again
bo a serious Issue before the American pee
ple.
Senator Thurston said that It was Impossi
ble to get back In six months where wo were
before the depression as there had been too
much loot. Every factory could not be made
ready to run full time In the short space
of six months. Things were gradually shap
ing themselves so that a great revival In
business would soon bo upon us. There lane
no excuse for any man voting the democratic
ticket this year and especially the fusion
ticket. Why any man would want to vote
the mongrel ticket was moro than he could
understand. The fuslon'sts had recognized
the fact that a degenerate republican wna
far better than members of their own party
and had placed one upon the ticket to
strengthen It. Ho told of the nominating
convention held at Lincoln by the fuslonlsts
and explained how the populists got the
worst of the deal all around. Every law In
the Interest of labor Introduced In the con
gress of the United States had bcon pre
sented by members of the republican party.
Reverting back to his remarks about the
coming of prosperity Senator Thurston said
that In the face of all the good tlmrt here
and now In sight Ilryan said not three days
ago that the first six months of McKlnley'a
administration had bcon the most dlsca-
trous In the history of the country. "Whit
do you th'.tik of the political honesty of a
man who will make a statement llko that ? "
naked the spalier. In closing ho urged
every voter to do his duty today by voting
the straight republican ticket. If tha ! wan
done Nebraska would bo redeemed and would
go back Into the republican column. Then
there would bo millions of eastern money
seeking Investment In this state ,
The address was loudly cheered.
Judge Baxter was Introduced and spoke on
local Uaucn for a few mlnutcw. Ho also
urged republicans to do their duty at the
polls today.

that , therefore , "Tho Star Spangled 'Banner" '

The other address of the afternoon was by

presenting tno conditions surrounding the
nobility , the freeman , the surf and the slave ,
anij dwelt upon its good effects , not the least
among which was the stimulus It gave to
polite literature. Then she traced Us de

Has laughter gone out ? Are we never
again to have the honest guffaw the loud
lnugh , which , as the poet says , bespeaks the
vacant mind ? Is this really a true account
of the rationale of cachlnnation ? If so , prob
ably 'It ' has gone out , at any rate In polite
circles , writes Lewis Morris in the Forum.
Because wo are nothing now. If we are not
cultured and refined ; and to bo vulgar and to
bo Ignorant are worse offenses than any moro
explicitly forbidden In the Decalogue. And
yet It almost seems a pity , too. It Is not
well , surely , to lose any Innocent and , hap
pily. Infectious expression of pleasure a
world so bedeviled as ours.
Alas ! I fear there Is no doubt that the
power of Irrepressible laughter is the gift of
youth , nnd youth only , whether In nations erin
in Individuals. Passing the drawing room
door the other afternoon I could hear Insldo
peal uftcr peal of silvery , glrllah laughter. It
was Miss Ethel , who was entertaining her
school fi lends with tea and bread and butter
and Jokes. That Is the time of life for laugh
ter. I 6are say the Jokes would not have
made me smile. But when the springtide Is
blossoming , nnd the sap Is running upward In
the trees , and the vcrr.al woods are bursting
Into leaf and echoing with song , and , wher
ever you look , all Is verdure and Joy , almost
anything can move quick laughter. Or there
Is nn earlier stage , when baby 'Is being tickled
by mamma and crows with delight. Or ,
though this , It is true. Is often silent , there is
that most beautiful of all sights the little
blue-eyed boy or girl who lies In the white
cot at dawn and smiles , and ripples with
laughter at scmo 'Innocent , childish thought.
It Is good to hear laughter , It Is good to
watch these baby smiles.
But laughter can bo not only grotesque ,
but very dreadful as well. To hear a maniac
laugh Is one of the most terrible experiences.
To hear a hundred laugh , as one does In near-
InK the Isola del Pazzi at Venice,1 Is * fore
taste of the lower regions.
Farther on In the downward path of llfo ,
when the end Is very near , the failure of the
mind 'Is often proclaimed by violent laughter.
The old man Is back again \y \ the scenes of
boyhood , and la going over In a dream the
days of long ago. I remember well , lying
awnko In London lodgings , through an other
wise still Juno night , unable to sleep for the
loud , Incessant laughter pealing from the
room above , where the old man of tbo house
lay dying. When It ended , Just before dawn ,
Iho old llfo ended with It ; and 'In the morn
ing his daughter came In to announce tho'
fact and to express the hope that I had not
been much disturbed. The old man , she as
sured mo , had been In no pain , hut bid been
going over his boyish days again ; the old
brothers , long years dead and forgotten , were
with him ; and they were cricketing , * or gath
ering apples , or swinging , or swimming to
gether across the old brook , all that sleep
less night. Ono was glad It was so ; but the
laughter had an awful sound.
Too Dorp for \Vorilx.

BUFFALO , Nov. 1. From 2 o'clock this
afternoon to 7:30 : tonight the delegates to
tha National Women's Christian Temperance
union held a continuous session behind
closed doors I nnd discussed with much
warmth the report of Mrs. 'Matilda U. Carss
of the Chicago temple.
SIIss Sarah 0 , Johnson , financial secretary
ol the temple , presented her report , ot which
the following Is nn abstract : Balarre on
hand November (1 ( , 1890 , $23,129 ; Amounts re
ceived In gifts November 1 , 1S96 , to October
18 , 1S97 , ? HS10 ; Interest , $23.89 ; notes , $500 ;
total , $38,404 ; various expenditures , $9,073.
Mrs. Kathcrlnc Lento Stcphcnsoii of Mas
sachusetts , ono of a committee recently stnk
to Chicago to hueitlgato the temple matter
along with the other affiliated Interests ot
the union , reported that thn Income of iho
temple. If It was entirely rented , would bo
$176,000 a year. Its annual cxeptnso. In
cluding Interest , would bo $125,000. About
one-fourth of the building had been unrcnted
last year nnd about one-third this year.
MItS. CAUSE'S UKPOUT.
Mrs. M. ill. Oiree , In her report on the
temple , attributes the crisis In Its affairs
to the financial condition ot the. country and
"The determination to revive the enterprise. "
She declares that had nil unions responded
ns did -a few the slock would have been In
possession of the union without Incumbrance.
She quotes from previous reports showing
the receipts ar.d expenditures and the par
tial subscriptions , and adds that of over
$200,000 subscribed $141,000 Is still In her
hands. She Is entering Into negotiations
which promise to be most successful and will
Insure at least $200,000 with what she al
ready has. She Incorporates In her report
a paper signed by Lyman J. dago and ten
other , prominent business men of Chicago ,
made after an examination of the affairs of
the temple the first year. This report de
clares :
That aside from the moral value In the
Woman's Christian Temperance union mo
are fully convinced that If the friends of
the Woman's Christian Temperance union
are willing to put Into ytjur hands the sum
of pM.OUO within six d- twelve months ,
as > o , that you may stop the present outgu
ot the interest charges , you wilt obtain
control of the building and the Income from
which may be expected to Increase from
year to year with the nnnl re-suit of an es
tablished Income to the Interests you rep
resent.
Mra. Carso continues.
Wo are told the scheme should be aban
doned ; f.ift It is dishonest to longer con
tinue to support it. I think It most dis
honest and unbusinesslike for us to stop
at thla juncture when we have iput In HO
much money nnd now that business pros
pects u'ro returning- the country to let
go our hold of that which Is within our
grasp. I beg of you , dear delegates , to
stand by the pledge which the national
olllccrs sent out In November , ISM , which
contained the follonlnc words : Wlillc God
reigns In heaven and white ribbon hearts
beat steadfastly on canhwo will never
desert tills enterprise or take a backward
step.
step.Mrs.
Mrs. Susan Fesscnden of Massachusetts
moved to refer the entire temple matter tea
a committee ot seven. This was defeated ,
as also was a motion 'to ' refer to ths execu
tive committee.
"Let's settle the matter now , " said n
dozen delegates as fast as they could secure
recognition. The motion to adopt the mo
tion ot Mrs. Carso was piled three deep
with amendments.
"I ask the president to state the plans , "
said Mrs. Hounds of Illinois.
MISS WILLAUD'S SCHEME.
Miss Wlllard objected , but finally said : "I
have no great plan. I believe we must not
give up the temple. I know It would bo
death to some of us. I Just thought I would
go to some rich people who have been a lit
tle frlendlv with me and ask thom to help
us , I do not know about owning the tcni-
ple. but I , do want to keen a controlling in
terest In It. I believe It Is going to pay a.
line margin. If I did n&t I would not try
to raise the moiiev. I thought I would go' '
out am ] sec what I 0111 do , I am not goiug
to make any appeal to the local unions , but
of course. It they sit up nights and hanker
to give well , then all right. "
One after another the complex amend
ments that had piled uo were cleared away
end the vote came on the original motion to ,
adopt the report. It was carried by an easy I
majority.
Miss Wlllard suggested Miss Corrialla Dow
as custcdlan of the trust fund and the con
vention approved. Then came a resolution
offered originally by Mrs. Marlon H. Dun
ham of Iowa , pledging support In- the worker
or raising the monov. After passing through
a scries of amendments and codifications It
was adopted as follows :
"That. In vlow of the nleJgo of support
of our leader and from the fact that Mrs.
Carso has $123,000 pledced. with promises
of $200,000 , wo pledce our support nnd co
operation to secure $300.000 to bo given SUM
Douaa custodian to hold until she aboil
have enough monev to retire the bonds. "
During the session Mrs. Carse reported for
the Woman's Tempcranco association and
Mrs. Caret Inglchart nf Illinois presented
the report of the National Tenipeianco hos
pital , both of which were adopted.
