OGDEN IS ELECTED PRESIDENT 1 ? Ur. Alderman and Dr. Mclver Re sponsible for the Beginning of the i Present Revival. Richmond. Va.. Special.?The attendance at the meetings of the Conference for Education in the South was large and enthusiastic. The following officers were elected for the ensuing year: President. Robert C. Ogdon. of New York; vice president, Edgar G. Murphy, of Montgomery, Ala.; secretary, B. J. Baldwin, of Montgomery, Ala.; treasurer, W. A. Bialr, of Winston-Salem, N. C. The executive and resolutions committees are: Executive: Chairman, B. B. Valentine, Richmond; J. G. Brown, Raleigh, N. C.; R. B.

Snider, South Carolina; committee on resolutions, Richard Watson, Gilder, editor of The Century; United States Attorney General P. C. Knox; E. C. Bronson, Georgia; State Superintendent Joyner. North Carolina; E. C. Sanford, Knoxville, Tenn. Dr. Lyman Han, or tne ueorgia institution of Technology, was the first speaker at the morning session. He declared facetiously that if the movement continued its work, the people of the South would be talking of "Darkest New England,' 'and referring to "illiterate Boston." He took a most encouraging view of the future of the South educationally and industrially. The next address was by Josephus Daniels, editor of The Raleigh News and Observer, and a member of the national Democratic committee from North Carolina. He started out by saying that there have been four obstacles to educational progress in the South: 1. The negro, enfranchised against the protest of the people, who were forced against their will to pay | taxes to educate him; 2. Poverty, j grinding poverty, following war and | reconstruction such as this generation knows not of; 3. The lack of qualified teachers and the lack of inducement to capable men and women to become teachers; 4. Geographical difficulties. The greatest of these obstacles has been and is now and must be at least in this generation, the negro. He has been the lion in the path, the ever present and often insurmountable obstacle to public education." Mr. Daniels took a hopeful view as to overcome all these obstacles and touching the greatest, said In part: "There is a class, and in that class, I believe most of the thoughtful people of the South are to be found, and feel that, whatever may be the result, they dare not shut the door of hope and opportunity to any people anywhere?the negro in the South, the Indian in the West, the Filipino in Manila. They hoped, they believed, they trusted, that eventually it would prove beneficial, because they have faith that light and knowledge will surely bless wherever they abound. The last speaker was Dr. J. H. Kirkland, chancellor of Vanderbilt University. who made an interesting talk on teachers and the State. The conference then took a recess until 3:30. The fine audiences attending the sessions of the Conference for Education have continued to the end. The Academy of Music was again thronged at night, the members of the conference and the ladies with them being re- . enforced by many of the most prominent people of the city, not only educationally speaking, but as respects society, the professions and all lines of business and industry. The speakers were Dr. Walter B. Hill, chancellor of the University of Georgia, who spoke on "Negro Education at the South," and Hamilton W. Mable, associate editor. and Dr. Lyman Abbott, editor, of the Outlook, New York. Dr. Abbott's theme was "Impressions at the South," and he spoke eloquently of the revival of education represented by the conference. The highest education, he said, Is that for service. Industrial training, instead of being looked down upon, should, and would, eventually, he believed, be regarded as of the highest type in its direction. He paid a glowing tribute to the hospitality of Richmond and expressed joy in' the growing unity of the country. The civil war, he said, taught the North and South to respect each other as they had never done before. Refer ring to the suffrage, he quoted Henry Ward Beecher to show that many men in the North believed that placing the bollot in the hands of the negro could not be a success until the black man should fit himself to exercise the privilege intelligently. The ballot is a prerogative and a responsibility, he said, rather than a right. Manhood suffrage is the thing, he continued, but it must be remembered that manhood comes first and suffrage second. Dr. Abbott closed with a beautiful forecast of what the present educational revival will result in, of what the twentieth century will effect in the way of perfecting manhood. He attributed the beginning of the present revival, by the way, to a certain evangelistic trip made some 14 years ago through North Carolina b ytwo young men.

DENOUNCE THE BILL Pennsylvania Editors Hot XJver the New Libel Law ARGUED IT BEFORE THE GOVERNOR Representatives of Every Important Newspaper in the State Appeared in Opposition. Harrisburg, Pa., Special.?Every im portant newspaper in Pennsylvania was represented at the hearing on the Grady-Salus libel bill by Governor Pennypacker in the nail of the House of Representatives. Attorney General Carson sat with the Governor throughout the hearing, but neither indicated what would be the Governor's action on the measure. The opening speech was made by Charles Emery Smith, of The Philadelphia Press. At the outset of Mr. Smith's address Governor Pennypacker took exception to his use of the word "Insolently" and suggested that it would be well for the speakers to omit strong adjectives. Mr. Smith accepted the suggestion, saying at the same time that he spoke strongly because he felt strongly. Mr. Smith said in part: "This bill is utterly powerless to stop the particular kind of publication which it aims at, but it encompasses legitimate publications with an unlimited network of embarrassment and vexation; it would cripple and curtail the presentation of the regular and proper news of the day; it would start up a whole swarm of speculative Shysters and curbstone blackmailers; it infringes the just and constitutional liberty of the press and would impair that valuable protection for public morals and public rights which is found in the searchlight of publicity; it is special legislation in undertaking to make a law for newspapers while excepting the weekly newspapers from its operations; it perpetrates a gross wrong in seeking to fasten the principal's responsibility upon the agent, where the agent not only does not commit the offense but where he has not even the power to prevent it." Alexander Simpson, Jr., and Richard C. Dale, both of Philadelphia, spoke in favor of the bill, and Thomas V. Cooper, a member of tho Legislature and Cyrus G. Day, an attorney, against it. The libel bill provides that civil action may be brought against any owner or managing editor of any newspaper published in Pennsylvania to recover damages resulting from negligence on the part of such owners or managing editors in publications af iccuug me cnaracter, repuiauou or business of citizens, and that compensatory damages may also be recovered for "the physical and mental sufferings endured by the injured parties," and whenever such publication is given special prominence by the use of cartoons, etc., the jury shall have the right to award punitive damages against the defendants. It also provides that every newspaper published in Pennsylvania shall publish on the editorial page, the name of the owner, or owners, together with the name of the managing editors. Strike Lender Killed. Charleston, W. Va., Special.?Another tragedy growing out of the battle between striking miners and deputy United States marshals at Staniford City last February occurred near that place Tuesday, when John Harless, one of the strike leaders, was shot and killed by John Liang, and a man named George, who went with Deputy Marshals Cunningham and Summers to arrest Marless. Cunningham and Summers went to the house of Harless, accompanied by Laing and George. As they approached the house the two latter were stationed some disntrtn TJorloee in rocn h O IciULc a n txy iu ocup Aictuvoo, ?u vuwv should try to escape. Harless, seeing Cunningham and Summers approaching. made an attempt to escape from the opposite side of the house. Laing and George called on him to halt and as he continued to run they killed him. Harless is said to have been one of the strike leaders at the Staniford City fight. Further trouble is feared as the result of the killing of Harless. An Extra Dividend. New York, Special.?The Central Trust Company has declared an extra dividend of 20 per cent., payable May 1, in addition to its regularly quarterly dividend of 15 per cent.

The bill was passed. Voluntary Raise in Wages.
