IN USE HE FAILS Of BALLOT GERMAN KAISER MA Y VISIT THE U. S. WITHIN A YEAR Atlanta Iudepemlant Calls for White Leadership In Politics. Th# Atlanta Independent, the negro paper published In Atlanta, cornea out In an editorial Saturday under the head, "We are for White Leadership, not 'Llly-Whltelam/ " In It the author makes reference to the attempts of certain Republican leaders In Georgia to read the negro out of the party. The most astounding part of the editorial Is In the admis sion that after forty yean of trial, the negro finds himself less'potentlal than when he first received the ballot.

According to prominent local Republicans there will be none but white men on the ticket for any office.

"The negro will moke no attempt to Afrlcanlse the party: he will take a back seat and allow the while man to furnish the party candidates, control the party machinery, and give him even - other opportunity that does not smack or his disfranchisement to make good his boast of doing something tan gible If placed In charge. Hut let ua reserve unto ourselves Inviolable for ever, the right to vote and have a voice In the counsels of our party. So far as the negro Is concerned we have no desire to dominate anything. We recognise the fnct that we have been on trial forty years, and nt the end of that time wc find ourselves less potential In the politics of the state than we were when enfranchised. “Now we nre willing to take u hark t, and' let those who claim to be By Private Leased Wire.

Washington, Aug. 25.—No official notice of the contemplated spelling re form In the government departments has been received In Washington. While several heads of the depart ments are personally In favor of the proposed change, others do not look upon It with much favor In view of the fact- that they believe It will oc casion considerable confusion. Secretary Shaw refused to discuss the change for the reason that he has not been officially notified. A. W. Mur ray, acting secretary of commerce and labor, also declined to say anything for the same reason. Air. Murray was not prepared to say Just what method would obtain In the notifying the va rious chiefs of the contemplated change. In the war, stale, and navy depart ments. the news of the president's phonetic spelling order was received with Incredulity. Officials high and low. refused to discuss the move openly until Informed through the official channels of the chief executive's order on the subject. In their departments more than In any other branches of the government, the "no talk" rule pre vails, and the officials will not discuss new phases of affairs. It Is In the department of state that the new spelling would have far- reaching effects. For instance, If treaties and other communications be tween the United States and England should be embraced In the president's order, the ’ English government might well be perplexed by running against the new mode of spelling as opposed to the old-fashioned method. Officials having charge of records at the department of Interior nnd justice staled at noon that they did not care to express their opinion of the order nnd Its efTect until they received some official communication on the subject. It will give the bad speller a chance,” said one young man In the file department, by wny of comment.
