number of the members of Uie house
who opposed the motion had been
the guests of the president on his
southern trip. Democrats contend
ed that when the president found
his appropriation exhausted he
should have declined further invi

In the Sunday school workers'
convention at Washington the color
line was temporarily buried when
they elected Booker T. Washington
a life member of the organization,
subscribing the necessary $1,000 for
that purpose. A white delegate from
Kentucky nominated Mr. Washing
ton, saying: "We may all have our
own ideas of how the negro problem
is to be worked out, but we owe it as
a tribute to, the Christian nagroes
of the world to make Mr. Washing
ton a life member." "I carried a
gun marching with Robert B. Lee
for three years," shouted another
delegate from the floor, "and I'll give
a hundred dollars for that name."
Tho subscription was quickly made
up. William II. Taft, Theodoro
Roosevelt and W. J. Bryan were- all
elected life members of the Sunday
School Association, $1,000 being sub
scribed for each one of them by their
various champions in the convention.
