Col. Theodore Roosevelt, the ex-ough Riding President, struck town last Thursday evening in his swing around the circle and on the eve of attending a banquet, which was given his honor at the Hamilton Club, by his members. Like a Czar of Russia, he stirred up the animals by putting his big feet down hard and in an angry manner he declared in a loud voice like a prize fighting bully that inasmuch as the Hon. William Primer had opposed "His Policies," while he was president of the United States, while the blond Senator was member of Congress, that he should not be permitted to occupy a seat
Col. Roosevelt, for when he ran for president in 1904, he was well aware of the fact, at least shortly after his election that "the head officials of many of the large life insurance companies, had robbed the widows and orphans, out of several hundred thousand dollars, in order to turn their ill-gotten gains over to the managers of his campaign and being two or three times a millionaire he never has offered to reimburse those who lost so much money which they sadly needed to support them, which they had been fleeced out of by the thieving gentlemen, who expended it to assist to make him president of the United States.
Notwithstanding this fact, Col. Roosevelt, has the unmigrated gall and nerve to pose as a saintly God and that he is too pure in heart to permit Senator Lorimer to touch the hem of his garments, simply because he "Oposed his Policies" and as Col. Roosevelt has not yet become the king of America, but he would like to be, he had no moral right to dictate to the officers of the Hamilton Club whom they should or should not invite to come near unto him, while he was enjoying its free doings. Col. Roosevelt is proving himself to be one of the most blatant fools in this country and he is fast becoming the most dangerous man in the United States, for his uncouth conduct in relation to Senator Lorimer, unmistakably indicates that he is bitterly opposed to free speech that at all times he is ready and willing in his bullying way or manner to crush down and trample under his feet anyone who may happen to cross or differ with him on all public questions.
The returns from the election held in Maine on Monday, fall to furnish cheering news to the Republicans, for the Democrats swept the state from end to end, electing two and possibly threse out of its four Congressmen, capturing the Legislature and for the first time in 30 years a Democrat will be elected to the United States Senate.
Preventive methods were at once vigorously applied, and with the result that this dread scourge to human life has practically been wiped out of existence in the United States.
One hundred years ago there was scarcely a woman in London, whose face was not scarred with small-pox and every year this terrible disease numbered its victims by thousands.
Today, thanks to vaccination, it is unknown in epidemic form and the few cases we have are only those of persons too ignorant or careless to have themselves protected by being vaccinated. Before vaccination was discovered and practiced as it is today, small-pox killed more soldiers in the armies of Europe than were killed by bullets. Today in the armies of the old world, this disease is unknown.
So, you see, prevention pays and pays big. Money spent along these lines pays better returns than any other forms of investment. If there is any knowledge we should be eager and glad to get, it is the knowledge of how to prevent disease and how to keep well.

Vol. XV
Col. Theodore Roosevelt, the ex-Rough Riding President, struck town last Thursday evening in his swing around the circle and on the eve of attending a banquet, which was given in his honor at the Hamilton Club, by its members. Like a Czar of Russia, he stirred up the animals by putting his big feet down hard and in an angry manner he declared in a loud voice like a prize fighting bully that inasmuch as the Hon. William Lorimer had opposed "His Policies," while he was president of the United States, while the blond Senator was a member of Congress, that he should not be permitted to occupy a seat around the banquet table, that his presence was so offensive to him that he did not even want him to hang around the Hamilton Club rooms, while he was its honored guest.
It appears that Senator Lorimer is a member in good standing of the Hamilton Club, that he always pays his dues promptly, that part of the money he had chucked into it to help maintain it, was expended for the purpose of entertaining Col. Roosevelt, who seemingly delighted to openly insult him in what might be called his own home.
It simply shows the ill-breeding of Col. Roosevelt and his coarse conduct was on a par with that of an ignorant country tom-boy who entertains the mistaken idea that he is the whole green rank cheese or show, and his conduct which was not that of a highly refined gentleman, has gotten all the big Republican politicians up in arms against each other, thereby participating a very bitter fight among them and it is hard to tell what the outcome or the result will be.
Senator Lorimer since being grossly insulted has resigned as a member of the Hamilton Club, which was the only honorable course that he could pursue, and as he has not been convicted of any wrong doing in the eyes of the law, he is not a criminal and if anything he is a much better citizen, and far more honest than
PREVENTION COUNTS.
Nothing is truer than the old saying "An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure." And when applied to disease, it becomes a golden 'xt of Health Gosepel; a text that cannot be too often quoted or too often preached from.
It is only in recent years, however, that the real value of prevention as applied to many diseases, has been made possible. The discovery of the fact that the dangerous contagious diseases are caused by germs nas made it possible for us to find the means for their prevention. We have learned that fresh air and sunshine are the deadly foes of germ life. We know that fifth, dirt and darkness are the conditions most favorable to its growth and development. We know that contagion is spread by the mingling together of the sick and the well. And knowing these few simple, yet basic facts, helps us wonderfully in our efforts to keep well.
About ten years ago it was discovered that a certain species of mosquito transmitted yellow fever.
CHICAGO, SEPTEMBER 17. 1910.
[Name]
Put one over on the gang of sore heads and the few unsavory Colored Republican politicians in the second ward, by attempting to defeat him at the primaries on Thursday by running far ahead of his ticket, be receiving 4,101 votes, as against a few hundred votes for, his so-called opponent Frank Hamilton.
NEXT INTERNATIONAL TUBERCU
LOSIS CONGRESS.
In Rome, September, 1911—American Delegates to Carry Fine Report.
Official announcement of the Seventh International Congress on Tuberculosis was made today from the American headquarters by the National Association for the Study and Prevention of Tuberculosis. The Congress will be held in Rome in 1913 from September 24th to 30th. This gathering, which meets every three years, and was last held in Washington, D. C. in 1908, will be under the direct patronage of the King and Queen of Italy. The Secretary-General is Professor Vittorio Ascoll, and the President Professor Guido Bacell.
It is expected that an American Committee of One Hundred will be appointed as the official body representing the United States. Estimating on the present rate of increase, the National Association for the Study and Prevention of Tuberculosis announces that the American Committee will be able to give a most flattering report at the Congress. They will be able to announce that the number of tuberculosis agencies in this country has tripled in the three years since the last International Congress, and that more than twice as much money is being spent in the fight against consumption-by private societies and institutions, and also that the appropriations for tuberculosis work by federal, state, municipal, and county authorities have quadrupled.
The Congress at Rome will be in three sections, that on etiology and causes of tuberculosis; on pathology and therapeutics, both medical and surgical; and on the social defence against tuberculosis. The names of the presidents of these sections will be announced in the near future.
The Republican Municipal Court candidates winning out at the primaries, Thursday are: John C. Scovel, 47,000; John H. Hume, 46,000; M. Bruggemeyer, 42,000; Stephen A. Foster, 46,000; McKenzie Cloeland, 46,500; Michael F. Girten, 40,000; John W. Houston, 41,000; John R. Newcomer, 50,000; Frank Crowe, 42,000
The Broad Ax in its issue of September 3rd, seems to be quite furious at the nose, and steamed awfully at Booker T. Washington, and the Negro business men of this country, who support Mr. Washington's views. The writer does not know what Mr. Washington has done to The Broad Ax, but from the fire, smoke and lava heaped upon Mr. Washington from its volcanic passion, it appears that he has done a great crime. The Broad Ax charges Mr. Washington with saying that "Negro Newspapers are of no service." That is a charge strange indeed, to lay upon Mr. Washington, who has been editing a paper for nearly twenty years. Perhaps when The Broad Ax quoted Mr. Washington, it did not give the contexts of his sentence or sentences, and only printed that part in which was the statement "Negro Papers are of no service."
An Infidel trying to impress his child that there is no God, from Bible evidence, showed the child the phrase "No God" but kept his finger on the context of the sentence, so that the child could not see that "The fool hath said in his heart there is no God."—The Peoples Relief Jackson, Mississippi.
Brother Bryant, if you will re-read our article intelligently on "Booker T. Washington, respecting his views, as to the Negro press, and understand the true construction of sentences, you must admit, that we did not add to, nor take away, one word or line from what he had to say in his lecture delivered in this city in April 1807, in reference to the Negro press.

It goes without saying that the "Big Five" Republican machine of Cook county is the best organized political machine in existence. For every candidate selected by its managers and engineers to make the race for the various offices in Cook county proved to be on easy street, and the slate tickets selected by the big five passed through the primaries Thursday without receiving one single scratch, thus showing the masterful management on the part of the bosses of the well-oiled Republican machine.

THE FENCE POSTS OF IOWA
Washington, September 14, 1910.—The U. S. Department of Agriculture estimates that the farmers of the single State of Iowa use every year $1,400,000 worth of new fence posts, which cost the equivalent of $600,000 for setting them in the ground. Further, the Department officials believe that a part of this expenditure might be saved.
The opportunity for economy is found, first, in using the kinds of posts which, taking into account both cost and durability, are cheapest in the long run, and, secondly, by treating the posts to prevent decay, particularly those which decay most quickly. When a farmer sets a post which will have a comparatively short life, he loses not only through having to buy a new post, but also because of the additional labor involved in setting it. It is true that in both cases no money outlay may be involved, for he may set the posts himself after getting them from his own woodlot. Of the posts used last year in Iowa, seventy per cent, it is estimated, were grown on the farms where they were used, or were obtained than other farms or woodlot owners, and only thirty per cent were bought from lumber dealers. Nevertheless, the farmer is out his labor and the part of the product of his woodlot which is used up, even though he does not pay out any cash.
The facts concerning the use of fence posts in Iowa were brought out by an investigation which the Department of Agriculture has been making through inquiries sent to farmers Several thousand replies have been used in compiling the figures, which, combined with statistics issued by the Iowa State Board of Agriculture as stated to be fourteen years and the acreage, furnished the totals. According to these totals about 10,000,000 posts are called for yearly to build and repair fences on 209,163 farms, of an average size of $158\frac{1}{2}$ acres each.
The average life of a fence post is stated to be fourteen years and the average cost 13.7 cents. There is, however, great difference in the lasting properties of different woods. Osage orange lasts more than five times as long as willow does, and for length of service it heads the list of post timbers in the State. The comparative life of other posts is shown in the following list, ranging from the longest period to the shortest: Red cedar, locust, white oak, northern white cedar (or arborvitae), catalpa, black walnut, butternut, red oak, and willow.
The average cost of posts varies for different woods, and for the same woods in different localities. Red cedar is most expensive, at an average of 26-34 cents each, and willow the cheapest, at 6 cents.
Taking into consideration the time a post will last, and the cost of buying it and setting it in the ground, the conclusion must be drawn that the orange orange post is the most economical in Iowa, followed by white oak, locust, catalpa, red cedar, black walnut, butternut, willow, white cedar, and red oak, in the order named.
Comparatively few posts of some of these woods are used. Catalpa and butternut together do not constitute one per cent, while white oak exceeds forty per cent. From white oak, the highest, the numbers used
---
range down in the following order: White cedar, osage orange, red cedar, willow, black walnut, locust, butternut, and catalpa. A few posts are cut from other woods. Nearly or quite one-half of all the posts were round, indicating that most of the trees cut were too small to split. The low place attained by black walnut and butternut, generally rated high in lasting properties, is probably due to the fact that the posts were round and small, and therefore largely sapwood which decays quickly. The life of such posts would be much extended by giving them preservative treatment. Preservative treatment increases the life of all wooden posts and more than doubles the period of usefulness of those which are mostly sapwood. The two million dollars spent yearly by Iowa farmers in buying and setting fence posts might be materially lessened by putting into practice the well-known methods of wood preservation. It costs much less to treat a post than to buy a new one and set it in the ground, and in addition much wood could be saved for other purposes. The Department of Agriculture has made a special study of practical methods of preserving farm timbers, so that it is able to inform interested inquirers how to do this for themselves.

The Women's Alliance held a reception Thursday evening at the Negro Fellowship League rooms, 2830 State street, in honor of Mrs. Tina Johnson, mother of John A. Johnson, 3444 Wabash avenue. Mrs. I. B. W. Barnett, Mrs. C. Mason, Mrs. J. E. Johnston and Mrs. Irene Golns, had charge of the affair. Quite a number of ladies and gentlemen were present to meet Mrs. Johnson.
Attorney James A. Scott, 185 Dearborn street, who has always worked hard for the success of the Morris and Hanecy, crowd of cheap politicians in the 2d Ward, broke away from them and made many speeches in behalf of the candidacy of Edward D. Green and against their candidate Frank Hamilton, and as, Mr. Scott, was able to tell which way the wind was blowing and he is again on top in the 2d Ward.
"The experience of history shows that free government, once established, can be preserved only by the individual standing upon his rights, or more pointedly speaking, keeping government . . . at arm's length.
This is a thing . . . entirely consistent with the highest loyalty to government. A small encroachment of arbitrary power by government leads quite inevitably, if suffered without opposition, to great and greater ones, and to a growing multitude of them. . . . ending in the temporary or permanent destruction of free government.
"The first invasions and encroachments upon the rights and liberties
of the citizen appear at first harmless and commonplace, yet they are germs pregnant with the destruction of free government."—Mr. Justice Wm. J. Gaynor, of the Supreme Court of New York in the North American Review.
Wednesday evening, Mr. and Mrs. E. W. Carter, 5025 Armour avenue, entertained Mrs. Jennie Collins, sister of Mrs. Carter and Miss Bertha Williams, both of St. Louis, Mo. It also marked a happy event in the lives of the most and hostess, it being Mr. Carter's 31st birthday and the third anniversary of their wedding. Whist was played and a most joyous evening was spent by all present. A very fine and delicious luncheon was served. The table was beautifully and tastefully decorated and flowers added to the beauty of the evening, and when the guests departed all joined in wishing the host many more birthdays and the happy pair fifty years more of married life. Those present were: Mr. and Mrs. Collins, Mr. and Mrs. Evans, Mr. and Mrs. Pagg, Mr. and Mrs. Boyd, Mrs. Washington, Mrs. Whittenberg, Mrs. Duigurd, Mrs. Taylor, Miss Beulah Jackson, Miss Bertha Williams, Miss M. Lucas, Mr. Clarence Parker, Mr. Dan Carter, and Mr. Boyd of New York.
Tuesday evening Mrs. Elizabeth McDonald, 6130 Ada street, delightfully entertained many of the most prominent club women in honor of Miss Josephine Holmes, principal of the Normal department of Wiley University, Marshall, Tex. Miss Holmes has been in the city for almost two months, taking a special six weeks course at the Chicago University and she leaves Monday morning for Indianapolis, Ind., on her way home to resume her duties. Miss Holmes is highly cultured and very intellectual and brilliant. Mr. Moss, assistant chief clerk of the Juvenile Court; Mrs. oRchester, of Toledo, O.; Mrs. P. G. Lewis, Mrs. Macon, president of the I. B. W. Club; Mrs. Dr. White, James Edgar French, Mr. Wear, Mrs. Caldwell, head of the volunteer workers and Mrs. Elizabeth Lindsay Davis, president of the State Federation of Colored Women's Clubs were among those who made short talks highly commending Mrs. McDonald, for the noble work she is doing, and at the same time pleasantly greeting Miss Holmes and praising her for her great educational work in the south. At the close of the speech making a most appetizing luncheon was served in the dining room where the table was most artistically decorated and choice cut flowers lent their fragrance to the occasion. It was one of the most enjoyable affairs of the season.

LIVELY TIME FOR ODD FELLOWS
Large Attendance Expected at Coming Meeting In Baltimore.
NEW OFFICERS TO BE CHOSEN
Citizens of the Oriole City Are Making Elaborate Arrangements For the Entertainment of Delegates and Visitors to the Biennial Session of the Order. Who Will Be Grand Master?
By FRANKLIN F. JOHNSON
Great preparations are being made by the citizens of Baltimore for the entertainment of the fifteenth biennial movable committee of the Grand United Order of Odd Fellows, which will be held in Baltimore from Monday, Sept. 12, to Saturday, Sept. 17, inclusive.
The Baltimore lodges of the order have appointed a committee of arrangements, of which Councilman Harry S. Cummings is chairman. This committee will look after the comforts and needs of the visitors. It is estimated that the number of delegates and visitors will exceed 6,000.
The secretary of the committee, Jesse L. D. Nicholas, district grand secretary for Maryland, has been basly engaged at headquarters, 1540 West Biddle street, arranging for what will probably be the greatest session in the history of the order.
William McCard, a successful lawyer of Baltimore, is chairman of the entertainment section of the committee.
The session will open at Sharp Street Memorial Methodist Episcopal church on Monday. Sept. 12. at 10 a. m.
Addresses of welcome will be delivered by Governor Crothers, Mayor Mabool of Baltimore, Councilman Cummings and others. Responses will be

made by Rev. Dr. William A. Credit of Philadelphia and other men of note from in and out of town
In the evening Parliarchie No. 1 will drill at Center Market hall, where all of the business sessions will be held.
Along with the Odd Fellows will be 700 members of the Household of Kuth, the women's section of the order, and 200 members of the Past Grand Masters' council and the Parliarchie.
Through the generosity of the mayor and city council of Baltimore the Center Market hall has been given over for the session, and $400 has been appropriated for the illumination of Druid Hill avenue from Biddle street to Lafayette avenue, a distance of five blocks.
The outing down Chesapeake bay will be made in the iceboat Latrobe, which has been granted for that purpose. Other social features will include an excursion and crab feast to Brown's grove and a big ball and reception at the Lyric on the evening of Sept. 16.
A parade will precede the ball in the afternoon, which will wind up at the Eastern league baseball grounds, where a competitive drill for a prize of $150 will take place.
There will be a new deal among the officers at this session, as the terms of all the officers have expired, and by law nearly all are denied the privilege of immediately succeeding themselves.
W. L. Houston of Chicago, who has been grand master of the order for the past five years, has made an enviable record, and progress has been general throughout the order during his administration.
Among the candidates to succeed him are E. P. Jones of Mississippi, Edward H. Morris, one of the most successful lawyers, white or colored, in Chicago and past grand master of the order, and John C. Asbury, editor of the Odd Fellows' Journal, Philadelphia.
Autumn Festival of Hope Day Nursery.
The annual autumn festival of the Hope Day Nursery For Colored Children will be held at Manhattan Casino, New York, on Friday evening, Sept. 16.
The organization has done a most helpful and beneficial work in its chosen field for the race and is carried on by women who are truly interested in the uplift of the youth of the race along all lines.

CHURCH HONORS ITS MINISTER
Union Baptist Gives Rev. Dr. Lawrence Grand Reception.
WHAT HE HAS ACCOMPLISHED
Well Known Clergyman, Who Has Achieved Success In Many Fields, Is Feasted and Presented With Large Purse Before Going on Extended Trip South-Called Sunday School Pastor.
By N. BARNETT DODSON.
The testimonial reception given by the Union Baptist church, Orange, N. J., on Thursday evening, Sept. 1, in honor of its esteemed pastor, the Rev. William P. Lawrence, Ph. D., was in every way commensurate with the high character of the man and the services which he is rendering the people of his church and the community. Dr. Lawrence accepted the call of the Union Baptist church three years and a half ago. He was then pastoring in Elizabeth, where for six years he had met with marked success. As a pastor he has had a wide experience. Among the ministers of the New England Baptist missionary convention his advice in matters which require the most careful and thorough investigation is eagerly sought and relied upon by men many years his senior in the ministry. Dr. Lawrence may be justly called a Sunday school pastor. He is not only interested in the school of his own church, but in Sunday school work generally. He has successfully led the Sunday school forces of the Baptist denomination in New Jersey for the past nine years as president of the state Sunday school convention.
During his three years' pastorate at the Union Baptist church Dr. Lawrence has added 510 persons to its membership, put in new pews, a large pipe organ and a new lighting plant. These improvements are paid for.
In addition to the above, a new parsonage has been bought, upon which

principal debt on the church at the rate of $700 a year. The total sum raised by Dr. Lawrence and his church for the three years amounts to over $15,000.
The church has a membership of about 915. The morning congregation and the Bible school are more largely attended than those of any other church in the state.
Dr. Lawrence will leave within a few days for New Orleans, where he will attend the annual meeting of the national Baptist convention, which convenes on Wednesday, Sept. 14.
The literary program, which was presided over by the Rev. George E. Morris, D. D., of Morristown, N. J., was both interesting and instructive. The address of welcome was made by W. H. Corbin, president of the board of trustees.
"What I Saw and Heard In Europe" was the subject of a most timely address by the Rev. Dr. J. C. Love, pastor of the Union Baptist church, Montclair, N. J. who has recently returned from an extended trip abroad.
Other speakers and their subjects were Rev. M. W. Vaughan of Plainfield, subject, "Dr. Lawrence as a State and National Worker," Rev. R. L. Harris of Hackensack, subject, "Dr. Lawrence as a Pastor and Leader," Rev. J. C. Dunn, pastor of St. John's M. E. church, Orange, subject, "Dr. Lawrence as Viewed by Other Denominations."

The vocal solo by the Rev. Dr. J. Alexander Patterson of Orange, N. J., was received with much applause. Professor J. H. Buford and choir discursed appropriate music throughout the evening, which gave evidence of careful training and exceptional ability.
New Form of Door.
One of the oldest of human inventions is the door swinging on hinges at one side. Some weaving insects, such as trapdoor spiders, employ a similar device, but nothing is too old or too good to escape the efforts at improvement of modern inventors. A Belgian inventor has devised a door of a new type consisting of two triangular parts which close together on a diagonal line running from one lower corner of the door opening to the opposite upper corner. The two parts, or leaves, are pivoted in such a manner that when opened they swing into partitions in the ceiling, leaving an entirely unobstructed passage. Being carefully counterbalanced, the leaves require slight force to move them.—Chicago Record-Herald.
Standard Color Vocabulary
The Wall Paper News puts in a timely plea for a standardized color vocabulary. Every season the French dyers and colorists issue a list of colors, shades and tints to serve as a style basis for the season, and to these are arbitrarily affixed names that bear in many instances no relation to the colors they designate.

This habit, it is asserted, has become so general that today we have a nomenclature of color that no man living can ever hope to master.
A Bell Puzzle.
Workmen who were putting in a new floor in a store at Rockland, Me., found underneath the old floor a large bell, which was afterward recognized and claimed by Alfred Murray. Years ago Mr. Murray kept a store in the neighborhood and had the bell mounted on the roof. Every time the sales amounted to $10 the bell would be tung and the person making the last purchase received a present of 50 cents. The bell was stolen a number of years ago on a Fourth of July night and so effectually hidden that it has only just now come to light. Now every one is wondering how the boys got the bell under the flooring of the neighboring store.—Boston Globe.

"Fine! Girl! who flutters the feather duster in my room makes me think I'm seeing 'Chantecel.'"
Making Things Worse.
"That excuse only increases the awkwardness of the case," said Mayor Gaynor of a political flasco. "That excuse reminds me of young Dr. Start. "Dr. Start a short time after he began to practice was summoned to attend a banker suffering from typhoid. Dr. Start pulled the banker through. Then in taking leave for good he congratulated his patient and himself and said he would just call once more in the course of the week to make sure that no complications had set in. "He called five days later. The banker's brother met him at the door with a very long face. "Poor George is dead,' he said solemnly. "Dr. Start turned pale. 'How am I to get out of this?' he thought. 'I must exonerate myself somehow. What negligence have I shown?' Then he said: "Well, on the whole, I'm not surprised. This isn't the first case of typhoid convalescence, nor will it be the last. A clot, it is clear, formed suddenly at the base of your brother's medulla, the diastole was disordered, and the usual heart failure ensued. "Dr. Start rattled on for several minutes in that strain, but at the end of a long and involved sentence, when he paused to take breath, the dead man's brother said solemnly:
"No, Dr. Start, you are wrong. That isn't what killed George. He went bathing at Coney Island and was carried out by the tide."—Louisville Times.

"What an absurd question, child!"
"Oh, I only thought you might be as sorry at night as you were during the day," ventured Ethel.-Harper's Bazar.
Too Thorough.
"My first wife married me to reform me."
"I should say. I've been married twice since."—Cleveland Leader.

mate in the matter of ill health. Repeatedly for this reason he has had to cancel lengthy engagements worth scores of thousands of pounds. An attack of spotted fever five years ago caused him to lose a three months' tour in America at a fabulous salary. This was followed by a railway accident, necessitating two operations.
One of Paderewalt's minor worries is the persistent autograph hunter, who gets terribly on his nerves. George Grossmith once came to his relief when he was being pestered by the signature seekers. Grossmith ruffled his hair to make it like the musician's picturesque mane and rushed wildly into the ball of the hotel, screaming, "I can sign no more; I will sign no more."

State the rooning measures:
"The enforcement of the constitution,
to stop disfranchisement and peonage.
"The passage of a national anti-jim-
crow car law.
"National aid to education with the
same opportunities to all children.
"National legislation against lynching and mob law.
"The restoration of the discharged Brownsville soldiers.
"To candidates of any party who pledge themselves to these measures we pledge our own votes and the votes of all black men whom we can persuade to stand on their manhood and vote like freemen."
Governors Harmon of Ohio and Deeen of Illinois were commended for their course against lynching; harmony among the race rights organizations was urged and a hearing for Rev. Harvey Johnson on his Texas purchase plan urged. A committee of seven was appointed on the fifthth anniversary of emancipation to confer with other bodies. The executive committee is composed of members representing forty states. The next annual meeting of the league will be held in Boston.
