THIRTIETH YEAR. NO. 6. ARCHBOLD TELLS OF CONTRIBUTIONS SAYS HE WAS GIVEN TO UNDER STAND ROOSEVELT KNEW WHERE CASH CAME FROM. MONEY AIDED 1904 CAMPAIGN Standard Oil Magnate Says $100,000 Went to Republican National Committee and $25,000 Was Paid to Penrose for State Committee. MAIN POINTS IN ARCHBOLD'S TESTIMONY. Paid Cornellus N. Bliss $100,000 for national Republican committee in 1904 with understanding it would be acceptable to Roseveff and that he know of it. Paid Senator Penrose $25,000 for Pennsylvania campaign. Paid in currency rather than check to avoid publicity. Aked to $150,000 more by Bliss, but refused to pay it. Cortelyau sent Bliss to Archbold for second donation, saying it was "inadvisable" for Cortelyau to come in person. "Outrageous attacks" on the Standard by Roosevelt dated from refusal of second donation. Archbold and H. H. Rogers visited Roosevelt at White House later and were told by Roosevelt that there "had been some criticism of campaign contributions but it couldn't be avoided." Rogers, Tillford and Barstow of trust firm died during 1909, "worried to death." William Flann Flann of Pittsburgh sought Ambulance and gave seat in senate after death of Senator Didn't hear anything about the Standard's money being refunded and never got it back. Washington, D. C.—John D. Archbold told the senate committee investigating campaign funds that the Standard Oil Co.'s $125,000 contribution to the Republican war chest of 1904 was made upon assurances from Cornellus N. Bliss that "the contribution was acceptable to Colonel Rosevelt and that further contributions would be acceptable." Archbold appeared on the stand before the sub-committee of the senate investigating campaign contributions, to explain the controversy between Colonel Roosevelt and Senator Penrose over the question. Mr. Archbold explained that $100,000 went to the Republican national committee and that $25,000 was given to Senator Penrose for the Republican state committee. Gave Penrose $25,000. Too. When the committee assembled, Mr. Archbold was sworn and Senator Clapp asked him what contribution the Standard Oil Company had made to the campaign of 1904. With two contributions to the Republican campaign in 1904, one to Cornelius N. Bliss of $100,000 and the other to Senator Penrose of $25,000," replied Mr. Archbold. Subsequently to these contributions Mr. Archbold he talked with Mr. Bliss, not later than October 10, about further conditions. He thought Mr. Rogers might have been at one of them. He remembered that no one else was present. "What was the result of these conferences?" asked Senator Clapp. "We decided not to make the further contribution." "Did you have any conferences with any one except Mr. Bliss, whom you knew or understood to represent Col. Roosevelt?" asked Senator Clapp. "No. I talked very frankly with Mr. Bliss. I told him we wanted to make this contribution, but not without the knowledge of the powers that be. We wanted it understood and appreciated by Col. Roosevelt. Mr. Bliss smilingly assured me that this would be done." TEDDY BEITERATES DENIAL Oyster Bay, N. Y.-Col. Roosevelt sat on the porch at Sagamore Hill for an hour and a half and dictated a statement in reply to the testimony of John D. Archbold before the senate investigating committee. He reiterated his declaration that he knew nothing of a contribution by Mr. Archbold or the Standard Oil Co. to the Republican campaign of 1904; declared that he did not "for one moment believe that Mr. Archbold's testimony is truthful"; and charged Mr. Archbold with a "wicked assault on a dead man." He added that during many calls which Mr. Archbold made upon him while he was president to urge him not to prosecute the Standard Oil Co., Mr. Archbold never referred to any contribution to his campaign fund, and concluded with the suggestion that the senate committee should make both Mr. Archbold and Senator Penrose testify at once concerning their relations while Mr. Penrose was member of the industrial commission. In his last word Col. Roosevelt thanked both Messrs. Archbold and Penrose for "making it clear beyond possibility of doubt that I am the man the Penroses and Archbolds of the country most dread in public life." Bride Arrested at the Altar Perth Amboy, N. J.-Mrs. Mary Pfeiffer King was arrested at the altar and cast off by her wealthy husband of a moment, Paul King, when he learned that his bride was charged with forgery. Just as the minister pronounced King and Miss Pfeiffer man and wife, officers stepped into the church and placed the woman under arrest on complaint of Charles K. Seaman, a banker, who accused the woman of obtaining 1400 on a forged order. She said the toesy was used for her tresseau. BRITISH MONEY BAGS Figures Show Wealth of Nation to Be Enormous. Country is Said to Be Worth Six Times as Much as It Was a Century Ago—Money Unequally Distributed. Within the last twenty years over 120 millionaires have died in the United Kingdom. Between them they have left over 230,000,000 pounds, or an average of nearly two million sterling each. These are huge sums, but the income of even the most indulged of millionaires is a trifle compared with the income of the nation as a whole. Among us, official figures show, we inhabitants of the United Kingdom are making some two thousand millions sterling a year. Our national capital works out at the useful sum of eleven and a half thousand millions. The eleven thousand millions represents private property; the half-five hundred millions—is the estimated value of public property such as government and municipal buildings, warships, public parks, etc., down to the postoffice public inkpots. How does Britain's wealth compare with that of the Britain of a century ago? The answer is simple. The Britain of 1912 is worth just six times as much as the Britain of 1812. The official estimate of that year made the nation's wealth rather less than two thousand millions. How much does the kingdom possess in hard cash? Very little in comparison. If an Englishman as rich as Rockefeller decided to turn all his wealth into golden sovereigns and half-sovereigns, nobody else in the kingdom would have one. There is only a hundred and thirteen millions in sovereigns and half-sovereigns in circulation, only twenty-four millions in silver, and only three in copper—a total in all of a hundred and fifty millions, which is a trifle in comparison with the nation's capital and annual income. The explanation is that paper—in the form of checks, drafts, bonds, etc.—plays a very great part in our national finance. Its importance is shown by the fact that though Britain possesses only a hundred millions' worth of gold, some thirteen thousand millions' worth of checks go annually through the London clearing house. As for the wealth possessed by Britons individually, there are, according to the official estimate, nearly 300 people who are receiving over £4,000 a year, some 800 people are the lucky possessors of incomes of between £20,000 and £40,000; nearly 3,000 people have incomes of from £10,000 to £20,000, while those who get from £5,000 to £10,000 a year number about 7,000. In all, between 11,000 and 12,000 people are enjoying incomes of over £5,000 a year. To deal with less fortunate people, there are some 1,200,000 income taxpayers—1,200,000 people, that is, are in receipt of incomes or salaries of over £160 a year. For every person in receipt of an income of over £5,000 a year there are twenty-nine who are making between £700 and £5,000, and eighty whose incomes lie between £160 and £700—London Answers.

Cruel Laws of a Past A Cruel Laws of a Past Age. It is almost impossible to hang a woman in this country, but in old time England this was not the case. King George III, once offered twenty-three women offenders an alternative to hanging. They might, should they choose, be transported instead. Six of them voted for hanging. Many women were then hanged for less crimes than smashing windows. George Paston, for instance, notes the fate of a woman left husbandless by the press gang: "Rendered desperate, she entered a shop and took up a piece of linen . . . but laid it down again. For this she was condemned to death, and was hanged, we are told, with her infant at her breast." Agriculture in Alaska. Although the Eskimos know next to nothing of agriculture, there is no reason why good crops of grain, vegetables and fruits should not be grown in Alaska. The government has three or four experiment stations there, and all the evidence goes to show that farming can be carried on with success to a more or less limited extent. A number of good strawberries, which yield well, have been developed, and winter rye and wheat can be grown wherever the snow fall is deep enough to protect it from the severe winter temperature, which means from $2\frac{1}{2}$ to $3\frac{1}{2}$ feet. Good potatoes have been grown and herds of cattle and sheep are doing well. ESTABLISHED AUGUST 25, 1883 AND ISSUED EVERY WEEK ON TIME SINCE. NATIONAL SOLONS QUIT THEIR WORK NATIONAL SOLONS QUIT THEIR WORK FILE OUT OF WASHINGTON AS SIXTY-SECOND CONGRESS COMES TO AN END. DEFICIENCY BILL AGREED TO Measure as Reported by Conference of House Is Adopted by Senate and Signed by President—Penrose Resolution Goes Through. Washington, D. C.—With members tired and peevish and less than a majority in attendance in each house of congress, the second session of the Sixty-second congress was ended at 4:30 p. m. August 26. The next session will open in December, unless some great crisis should arise that would justify President Taft in calling a special session during the fall. Tired out from their all night vigil and angered by the action of the senate in delaying adjournment, only about 50 members of the house gathered on the last day out of the total of 330 to take part in the closing work and these were in fighting mood. Ignoring the chaplain's prayer for peace, Representative Focht, Republican of Pennsylvania, got the floor on personal privilege to reply to Representative Burnett's criticism of an immigration bill advocated by Focht. There was blood in Focht's eye when he characterized some of the statements by Burnett as "false" and "maliciously false." Speaker Clark issued several warnings that more temperate language must be used until Garrett of Tennessee moved finally to have the whole matter stricken from the congressional record. By agreement no action was taken on the immigration bill and Representative Carlin. Domestics of Virginia, made a demand the peace by the house, the senate reservation for the next month's pay for employees in the face of opposing Democratic caucus action. After causing cold chills by a threat to demand a quorum to suspend the rules, he was restrained by Underwood and Fitzgerald held the floor until adjournment. Last Day in Senate. The end came in the senate amid profound peace. All the fight with which a number of senators bristled previously disappeared during the day and it was a comparatively easy matter for those whose duty it always is to "fix things" to obtain an agreement to stop the filbustering and permit congress to get away. Realizing the impossibility of dodging a vote on the Fenrose investigating resolution, those who secretly opposed it made the best of a bad situation and let it come to a vote. It was dismissed briefly, opposed by Bailey once more on constitutional grounds, and then adopted by a viva voce vote. With that portion of the filbuster over Chairman Warren of the appropriations committee turned his attention to the general deficiency, the last of the great supply bills. The group of half a dozen senators, who had threatened to stay here when the snow flies before they would yield to the house and re-enact the state claims the senate had inserted in this bill, thought better of it after they had talked with their colleagues. Each of the group sang his swan song telling how just these claims were and how he yielded only because those whose items had been agreed upon ought not to suffer because a few could not obtain fair treatment. One by one they withdrew their opposition and that filbuster was over. The deficiency bill as reported by the conferences was adopted, the house had its way and the last snag was removed from the pathway of final adjournment. President Signs Bill. The president, smiling and happy, sat in his room signing belated bills and resolutions. The moment after he put his signature to the big appropriation bill the committee of the two houses awaited upon him to inform him that congress was ready to adjourn unless he had some other communication to make. As a matter of fact the resolution to adjourn at 4:30 was agreed to before the president was notified. That made no difference to the president, for it was with every evidence of joy and satisfaction that he informed the committee he most certainly had nothing to communicate. Whereupon the president, accompanied by his staff, was whirled away to the union station to the special car attached to the federal express, which took him to Beverly. The acting vice president was solemnly thanked by the senate for his services. The gavel then tapped out the life of this session. Many important appointments made by President Taft in the last few months were left unconfirmed. Among the more important are those of Judge Richard E. Sloan of Arizona, Maj. Gen. W. W. Witherspoon, Brig. Gen. John McClernand and Judge Clinton W. Howard of Washington state. Tried and Fined Over Phone Washington C. H., O.—Arrested, tried and fined over the telephone—such was the experience of Dr. C. L. Pollitt of Erie, Pa. here. The local police received a message to arrest Dr. Pollitt, who had exceeded the speed limit in Hillsboro and made a getaway. He was arrested here and taken before Mayor Smith, who called up the mayor of Hillsboro. Dr. Pollitt was placed at the phone, pleaded guilty to speeding, was fined $14.90, which he turned over to Mayor Smith to be forwarded to Hillsboro. LADY CONSTANCE IS EXILED BY THE QUEEN Lady Constance Stewart Richardson, barefoot dancer and otherwise at ocate of the terpsichorean art in costumes that are barely described by the word "scant," will return to America from London in a few weeks, this time to earn her living as a professional. MARGARET Few of Lady Constance's friends in England believe that much will be seen of her in her native land again. Not openly, but in whispers that might be heard across a ballroom by a person with good ears, it is said that the titled dancer has so offended the well-known Puritanism of King George and Queen Mary that she is persona non grata at court and her name has been erased from the calling list of many of England's peeresses because of the attitude of the sovereigns. Especially has Queen Mary cause for feeling "muffed" at Lady Constance, for in that person's latest escapade it was her majesty in person who received an affront. The titled dancer, swimmer and sportswoman in that incident was not only guilty of the unpardonable crime of failing to recognize the queen, but she was guilty of gross rudeness in telling her to move aside and not obstruct her view in an art gallery. Of course, the queen hasn't forgotten the incident and it is probable that she won't care if Lady Constance doesn't come back. Her coming appearance as a professional dancer recalls an incident in the life of King Edward that was the cause of a great deal of comment at one time. Lady Constance danced as "Salome" at a house party at which his majesty was a guest. When she finished the mad whirl the king applauded, and carrying out the conceit of the dance, asked in the words of King Heod: "Now what may I do for you?" "Give me the head of Sir Ernest Cassell on a charger," was the quick retort. The king was reported to have been very angry at the lack of taste of this allusion to his financial adviser. PRINCE OF WALES WILL MAKE A VISIT TO U. S. The prince of Wales, who is now the guest of the marquis and march- ioness de Breteuil, in Paris, has written to King George and Queen Mary urging that he be given permission to make his visit to the United States in September or October instead of deferring it until the following fall, as was previously planned. An incident which happened recently at liness de Breteuil, in Paris, has written to King George and Queen Mary urging that he be given permission to make his visit to the United States in September or October instead of deferring it until the following fall, as was previously planned. An incident which happened recently at Bevilliers is responsible for the boy prince's sudden desire to see the new world. The marquis and marchioness de Breteuil are both very fond of the society of young people and the park at Bevilliers is a favorite happy hunting ground of lads of good family on a visit in France. The young son of an American millionaire was recently invited to make an excursion to the park by a boy friend, a nephew of one of the high officials at the British embassy. He voted the chateau a "bully place" and was soon on the very best terms with his host and hostess, who introduced him to the British heir apparent, preserving, of course, the latter's incognito. But the millionaire's son placed the prince at sight and jolled his royal highness to the top of his bent. King George's son enjoyed it, made much of his American acquaintance, showed him through the gardens, and, in short, proved himself the fine, manly spirited boy he is, extracting from the lad from over the ocean a mint of information about America and Americans. "You've got to see the states," said the American boy. "I'm going to," said the prince. "Come this fall and I'll try to show you 'round." "That's a bargain," returned the king's son and the two youths "shook" to seal the compact. That is why the prince of Wales is so eager to hasten the date of his American tour. Good Idea In New York. A "vocational analyst" has been engaged by a New York city benevolent association to assist boys in "finding themselves" industrially. Boys usually simply drift into "jobs" without any knowledge as to their adaptability for them, and the vocational expert will try to get the human industrial misfits into places for which they are psychologically and physically adapted. As it is estimated that two-thirds of our youths make a mistake in their first choice of a vocation, there is evidently plenty of work for the vocational analyst. Oh. Joy! "This summer resort is deadly dull, but I am amply repaid for my trip." "As to how?" "My pooodle has gained an ounce and a half." LIKE FINDING MONEY Government's Entries on Right Side of Ledger. Almost Every Fire or Other Disaster in Which Property is Destroyed Has Its Compensations for the Nation. The obvious fact is recalled when the Titanic plunged two miles below the surface of the sea, the great ship carried with her an immense amount of wealth in various forms, among these a good deal of ready money, and of this money a considerable sum in United States notes, were promises to pay on presentation and demand, which shall not be paid, as they can never be presented. How much of this kind of money, or of any other kind, went down in that ill-fated ship can never be known. But the catastrophe brings to mind the cognate fact that there is scarcely a day in the year in which the government does not make money by the destruction of some of the evidences of its liability to be asked to pay. Where a government bill is mutilated, any portion of it may be presented for redemption. Provided three-fifths of the note can be identified, the full face value is returned to the owner, but if less than three-fifths can be identified only half is paid. Of course millions of money, or rather evidences of the government's obligations to pay money, are swept out of existence altogether. This happens every time a ship goes to the bottom of the sea or, a great fire occurs. Two Little Birds Stowaways Two Little Birds Stowaways. I waa riding along the shore of Great Bear lake in Utah one afternoon, and coming suddenly over a rise of ground, surprised a grebe in the edge of the tules. She swam into the lake, turning and calling repeatedly. Then two little grebes appeared and, swimming low with only their heads and backs visible, hurried after their mother. As they overtook her, each one reached out and, catching the feathers of her back in their beaks, they drew themselves alongside and quickly huddled under her wing, completely hidden. Had I not been a spectator to the act, I should never have suspected her of carrying two little "stowaways" as she hurried off. —J. Alden Loring, in the Outing Magazine. Forgetfulness Causes Four Deaths. A terrible accident occurred the other night at a level crossing on the line from Paris to Tours, France. A woman who kept the crossing gates forgot a new express service which began the evening in question, and did not shut the barrier against the public. As the train was arriving at full speed a deaf woman and her little boy aged two went to cross the track. Suddenly realizing the danger, the gatekeeper rushed to the rescue of the woman and child, and a baby which she herself was looking after, ran after her. All four were struck by the engine and killed outright. "Was your wife in the suffrage parade?" asked Morrowby, meeting Jelliffe on the street. "You bet she was!" said Jelliffe enthusiastically. "Why, she is the flag bearer for her chapter!" "Mercy!" cried Morrowby. "Do you mean to tell me that little woman carried the flag all that distance?" "Well—no," said Jelliffe. "My chaufeur and I took turns at it."-Judge. Opposite Causes Same Effect Second Ditto—My wife's in a bad humor; she had company arrive and she wasn't ready. How about yourself? The Frst—Oh, my wife's mad, too.; she got ready for company and they didn't come. AFRO-AMERICAN CULLINGS "Have you a man to take charge of our farm?" "We wish a young woman to teach domestic science in our city school." "We need skilled mechanics to teach carpentry, wheelwrighting and blacksmithing." "Negro nurses, men and women, are in great demand here in our town." These are some of the many calls that assail the principal of Tuskegee Institute at all seasons of the year. It is reasonably so. The change of the trend of education among both white and black: the increase of wealth, and courage to venture into business among Negroes; the higher and higher esteem into which the skilled Negro workmen are rising all make this call louder and more general. At Tuskegee Institute some thirty odd of these industries are taught. There are millinery, dressmaking, ladies' tailoring, upholstering, mattress-making, domestic science, launderer and gymnastics for girls; there are shoemaking, tailoring, wheelwrighting, carpentry, cabinetmaking, thimshimming, printing, harness-making, mechanical and architectural drawing, mechanical, electrical and steam engineering for boys; and there are dairying, swine raising, truck farming, poultry raising, stock raising, floriculture, landscape gardening, veterinary science, fruit growing, and many other branches of industry, both mechanical and agricultural trades for both boys and girls. This again is the modern trend of things. Therefore let no one halt at the idea of young women entering the agricultural trades. Moreover, experience and experiments at Tuskegee Institute are demonstrating that the young woman is just as apt and able a pupil with the machinery in the creamery, with the science of feeds in the poultry yard, with packing and handling fruit in the orchard as she is with grammatical syntax in the classroom, and just as quick and aggressive as is her young man classmate, to whom time and prejudice have hitherto restricted these trades. There have been several failures of co-operative effort to do business of one sort and another in New York in the past few years, but that should not deter our men and women from such efforts. Failures are, in a measure, the necessary step to success, as it is by experience that we learn what is good and what is bad method. As we have few opportunities to learn business methods by growing up with the business we have to get the experience the best way we can, even if it be through the sore ordeal of failure after failure. It is said that Peter Cooper failed at a dozen things before he found the sign of success. Nearly every day we meet some man of the race who, having made a venture by himself, or in partnerships and failed has no disposition to try again. He thus loses the capital he lost and the experience he gained in the losing of it. There is nothing but death in discouragement of any sort. Three men, five men, ten men, with a hundred dollars apiece can start a good business of most any sort, and while letting one of them manage it, earn an independent wage while the business grows. Plenty of them are beginning to do so here in New York and in other parts of the country. Try it, you!—New York Age. Greenville, S. C., is a late addition to the list of southern cities that have passed segregation ordinances. Attempts to place limitations on no-go progress can be only temporary. The eighth biennial convention of the National Association of Colored Women, held at Hampton Institute, Hampton Roads, Va., was pronounced the largest and one of the best in the history of the organization. The convention began last week with a delegation of over four hundred women from various parts of the United States. Miss Elizabeth C. Carter of New Bedford, Mass., was the presiding genius, and among many others seated on the platform with her were: Mrs. Booker T. Washington, vice-president-at-large; Mrs. Mary Church Terrell and Mrs. Lucy Thurman, honorary presidents; Mrs. Josephine B. Bruce, acting chairman of the auditing committee; Miss Ida R. Cummings, corresponding secretary, and the various state presidents. Mrs. M. E. Steward of Louisville and Mrs. Victoria Clay Haley of St. Louis recorded the doings. Mrs. Eva T. Jenifer of Chicago was at her old post in charge of the ways and means committee, owing to the unavoidable absence of Mrs. Katherine D. Tilman of California. Mrs. Mary Handy, president of the Mite Missionary society, which is national in scope, were seated on the platform. We gather from the reports of 1911 the total valuation of property owned by negroes and who paid taxes thereon for the current year in the following states is as follows: Arkansas ..... $20,500,000 Georgia ..... 32,531,427 North Carolina ..... 28,600,000 Virginia ..... 27,000,000 Texas ..... 80,000,000 Oklahoma ..... 662,000,000 The total value of all the property owned by the negroes in the United States will cover more than $600,000,000 Among the problems that the National Federation of Women's Clubs, soon to meet in Hampton, should take up for discussion and make a feature of Federation interest, is the work of domestic service as it affects our women. There are so many sides to the domestic service problem that it is necessary to indicate the special phase when discussing it. The first phase is, of course, the work of the wife in the home, and the work of the daughters as helpmates of the mother and as a preparation against the time when they as wives will have homes of their own. This is the highest call to domestic service. It is the foundation of the American state. It is susceptible of infinite discussion. Every woman has ideas of home education for domestic service and what should be the character and scope of it, albeit the best people are coming to the sensible conclusion that the daughter, however wealthy, should have her education rounded out by a course in a domestic science school, like that of Pratt Institute, in Brooklyn, and such as is included in the courses of our own Hampton, Tuskegee and other institutes. The Woman's Federation could do a good service by emphasizing this phase of domestic service education, as the home life of the negro, which depends so much upon the wife and mother, is of vital moment. But the phase of domestic service as an occupation, as a livelihood, is also of great moment, as so many of our women, both young and old, have to take to it as a matter of necessity if not of choice. To all such the best domestic science education is of the greatest benefit and assures the best positions and wages. There are plenty of indications that negro women are not being attracted to domestic service as an occupation as formerly and that they are not giving the satisfaction the service calls for. The reason for this condition could be considered and discussed to advantage by the Woman's Federation. A real race leader should be a useful man, able to arouse his people to become interested in his fellow men in making conditions better and in uplifting the human race, to see that each and every man enjoys the rights and privileges and blessings, as guaranteed by the state and national governments. We have been troubled too much with false leadership; men that were placed upon the pedestal of honor and "sold out" for selfish interests. They have regarded self aggrandement higher than general good. Such leaders ought to be relegated to the rear and place given to men of honor intelligence, integrity and character. It is a fact that the younger generation is no longer standing by the false leaders and the press and people are up in arms against him. With such a spirit, the coming years will note a change that will work for the greatest good of the race. Let us keep up the fight for true leadership—Illinois Chronicle.

From a Pullman porter to one of the biggest property owners in Brockton, Mass., in five years is the jump which Watt Terry, a negro, has made. When papers passed conveying to Terry the famous Checkerton and Cheston apartments, valued at $150,000, the owner of the $500,000 worth of the choicest property in the city, Terry had has a meteoric career, and where he once made $7 a week he is now making hundreds. Coming to Massachusetts from his home in Virginia when a young man, he took a position as coachman for a well-known physician. Then he went to the Y. M. C. A. as assistant janitor and became interested in the evening school. He enrolled and studied diligently for a long time. Finally he went away and was a Pullman porter for a while; then he returned to Brockton and went to work in a shoe factory, starting at $7 a week. He is superintendent of the Messiah Baptist Sunday school and is active in church work. There is no courage in the display of sorrow; but there is often real heroism in the control of it. In a recent editorial convention a minister was present and offered the following toast: "To save an editor from starvation, take his paper and pay for it promptly; to save him from despair, send him every item you can get hold of; to save him from bankruptcy, advertise in his paper liberally; to save him from profanity, write your correspondence plainly on one side of the sheet and send it in as soon as possible; to save him from mistakes, bury him.

The Chicago Evening World is entitled to great praise and credit, from all fair-minded people, for the splendid efforts it made in recent weeks, to save the life of Virginia Christian, the seventeen year old, half-witted girl, whom Governor Mann, of Virginia, permitted to be electrocuted on last Friday week. This sacrifice of a female child, of unsound mind is an outrage which should very properly disgrace that state for many, many years to come. The editor of The Gazette is indebted to Prof. Elroy M. Avery, former state senator from this county, for a copy of his memorial to his wife, Mrs. Catharine Hitchcock Tilden Avery, who died in December of last year. It is a most valuable and interesting testimonial to the "first woman of Cleveland," and contains a splendid portrait, in colors, of Mrs. Avery. The writer of this, one of her pupils when she was a member of the faculty of Cleveland Central High School, endorses all the memorial contains and the following paragraph from an editorial in the Cleveland DailyPlain Dealer of Dec. 24, 1911: "Many a successful Cleveland man and woman owe to Mrs. Avery their first impulse toward intellectuality. She laid the foundations for more useful careers than even she herself realized. Nor did her interest in a pupil die when he left the school room. On the contrary, it never ceased. She remained a friend, counselor and inspiration to the end." WOMAN'S SUFFRAGE AND LIQUOR LICENSE PROPOSALS. When we have voted, on Tuesday, for proposal No. 24, among others we are going to vote for the woman's suffrage and "liquor license" proposals because they are fair and reasonable propositions. The "liquor license" proposal only provides for giving to the people of Ohio the right to vote for or against the licensing of the sale of liquor in this state. That is all, and it is but fair, both to the people and those who have millions of dollars invested in a business the state has always practically legitimized (in spite of the present and old state constitution) by taxing and of late years, very heavily, too, thereby deriving immense sums of much-needed revenue. In this matter as well as that of woman's suffrage, we must not be narrow, prejudiced or fanatical, but use the common sense and judgment that name breadth of mind, fairness and a desire to mete out to others that justice we are seeking in the adoption of proposal No. 24, which eliminates the word "white" from the Ohio constitution and places us on a plane of equality here in Ohio, in the matter of state suffrage, with all other citizens of "the grand old Buckeye State." The U. S. constitution does this for us in federal elections ONLY—elections for members of Congress and presidential electors. The privilege of voting in state elections is the state's right to grant or withhold, independent of the national government. This is a U. S. Supreme Court ruling of years ago, which continues to be recognized in all of the courts of the country. OUTLOOK NOT ENCOURAGING. President Herbert S. Bigelow of the constitutional convention predicted, Saturday, that Ohio voters, Sept. 3, will approve the L and R, "home rule" and liquor license proposals. He fears the defeat of woman suffrage and said: "Woman suffrage, liquor license and the L and R, in the order named, will be voted upon most heavily. Woman suffrage is doomed. I fear. The opposition all over the state is bitter." Rev. Bigelow had nothing to say of the Cunningham proposal (No. 24),—to eliminate the word "white" from the suffrage clause of the Ohio constitution—but what he said about the woman's suffrage proposal ought to be taken, by us, as a prime warning. He had been in many parts of Ohio, "stumping" for the "home rule" and initiative and referendum proposals, when he came to Cleveland, last Saturday, to speak, and continued his work on leaving this city, Monday morning. Unless our people, throughout Ohio, ALL OF THEM AND NOT SIMPLY THOSE REGARDED, AS "LEADERS" in the various communities of the state, get very busy and keep so, from now until Tuesday, adopting and doing all in their power to secure the adoption of proposal No. 24, it will not take a "prophet or a son of a prophet" to tell what the result will be. Sept. 3, as far as that proposal is concerned. It means, too, so very much to all of us, and those of the race in Ohio who "come after us"—future generations. Remember proposal No. 24 is what concerns us more directly than all else to be submitted to Ohio voters at the special "constitution" election, next Tuesday. Sept. 3. Be sure to vote, and see that your friends and acquaintances do so also as far as it lies in your power. IF YOU do this, reader, proposal No. 24, will be adopted. "CALLED HIS HAND." Murder Narrowly Averted in South Carolina When Gov. Cole Blease Made His Accustomed "Bluff." Gaffney, S. C., Aug. 9—Gov. Blease picked up a little girl who presented him with flowers at the conclusion of his birthday, the next day. Holding her in his arms, he said: "A little child shall lead me." Look at the love and confidence this baby has for me." From the back of the crowd came a deep voice: "Because she don't know and are afraid." Quickly the governor answered: "If you come uptown, you dirty liar, I will give you the worst beating a coward ever got." "No need to upptown," was hurled back. "Come back here and try it now." The chairman of the meeting and policemen prevented the hostilities from going any further. The mother who gave her child flowers to present to such a man as Cole Blease—a mob leader, bribe taker and seducer, by allegation or confession—challenged the honesty of the man who rebuked the foul spirit of the Governor of the State, and may easily have been responsible for a bloody murder if no policemen had been present to prevent it. N. Y. Age TELL "TEDDY" AND TAFT. Wilmington, Del—Soldiers (white) of the coast artillery from Fort Du Point, in camp at the state rife range, Tuesday "shot up" New Castle.

The Cleveland Gazette on July 27 entered upon its 30th year of consecutive publication, which is remarkable. The editor and founder, has proved that grit and common sense can accomplish wonders, even while riding on the hurricane deck of a Negro newspaper—Seattle (Wash.) Searchlight. The Cleveland (O.) Gazette recently rounded its thirtieth year of continuous publication. The Gazette has been moderately successful as a business venture, eminently so as a defender of equal rights according to law for Colored Americans. Editor Harry C. Smith has not been in the editorial language full Presence for naught. Ohio's civil rights and anti-lynching laws and many other helpful measures were enacted through his uniting efforts. -Pittsburg (Pa.) Courier. The statement issued "by the entire Colored delegation of the National Progressive Convention," is just about as inconsistent as Col. Theodore Roosevelt's letter to Mr. Julian Harris, and just about as illogical. After declaring the charge of "illy-whitism," the Progressive Convention was being false, in another breath the delegation unanimously endorses Col. Roosevelt's position in his letter to Mr. Harris, the latter part of which (letter) is the very essence of "illy-whitism." -Richmond Planet. We can't for our life conceive how Negroes can espouse the cause of President Taft. If they can see no good in Col. Roosevelt, and certain it is if they have tried to see it and can't in T. R., heaven knows there is none to be seen in "Billy Possum" (Taft). What about the Prohibition candidate? He's pretty fair, and Eugene Dobbins, a good civil capita, has demonstrated his fondness for justice to the Negro. As we see it; a school boy, born of good horse-sense parents, could flail the life out of a Taft advocate in favor of Roosevelt. We could pulverize them.—Martinsburg (W. Va.) Pioneer Press. We note that the Negro editors are jumping on Col. Roosevelt with both feet, for eliminating the southern Negro from his party, in spite of the fact that he (Roosevelt) welcome the southern Negro into his company. They rightly defend on the principle, that if Negroes are offended in one section of the country, all should be offended, and that an injury to one is an injury to all.—Nashville (Tenn.) Clarion. Col. Roosevelt can take his party and march it on to heaven or to the other place, for all we care. We shall make no compromise with wrong and if the race is injured thereby, today, it will be cured of this injury tomorrow or the next day. Any race of man made by Mr. Roosevelt and his party, deserves no better treatment at the hands of any party—Richmond (Wa.) Planet. Bishop L. J. Coppin, of the A. M. E. Church, advises Afro-Americans not to vote for Roosevelt. In answer to a recent statement, the Comic Association made the Bishops'声明: "I had thought Roosevelt would be man enough to declare for equality and justice for the Colored man. I have always been a staunch supporter of his, until I read this letter. I see now he is not the man I thought he was, and even though I supported him through the war, after all, I will no longer support him. He has read us out of his party, and any Colored man who votes for him after that letter, is voting himelf a free passage to Hades."—Wagoner (Okla). American. Mrs. Nancy Gentry, who claimed to be 106 years old and boasted of having cooked meals for Abraham Lincoln and Gen. U. S. Grant while employed in a hotel at Edwardsville, Ill., died Saturday night at Newport, Ill., near East St. Louis. Her death was the result of a fall several years ago. She had predicted, it is said, she would live to be 125. Her surviving descendants are estimated at 189. According to her belief she had 14 children, 71 grandchildren, 96 great-grandchildren and eight great-great-grandchildren. She owned property in Newport.

J., July 22—A penalty of $500, recovered by Mrs. Minerva Miller, who was excluded from a Passaic theater because of her color, was upheld in the Supreme Court in an opinion filed by Justice Kelsey July 22. The action was brought against the Miller estate, a law firm establishment, who sustained one of his agents in barring Mrs. Miller from the resort. This is the way to put a stop to the dance-hall, roller-skating rink and swimming-pool color-lines at Luna Park, this city. Our Ohio Civil Rights law is alright, says the Ohio Supreme Court. Attorneys Alexander Martin and John M. Anderson have won cases under it; also Ex-State Senator W. T. Clark, who helped the writer to pass it in the State Assembly in 1894. Indeed Mr. Clark has never lost a case under our Ohio Civil Rights law and has had many, very many victories—more than any other attorney in the city. There is no good reason, either, why similar color-lines at Euclid Beach Park and elsewhere in public places, in the city, county and the state of Ohio, should be permitted to exist. All that is necessary is for our people to emulate the example set by Mrs. Minerva Miller of Trenton, N. J. Dr. H. C. Bailley and others of this city, who have very properly and promptly gone into the courts and vindicated their rights in public places, as all womanly and manly members of the race, citizens, should do when color-lines in those places are drawn on them. Our lack of activity, along this line, does not speak well for the race or its value of its citizen rights. We must be far more active and aggressive in contending, in the courts, for them.

Y.-Dr. Frederick J. Bliss gathered the material for his "The Religions of Modern Syria and Palestine" as nearly as possible at first hand. His sources were the priests and elders of the five Christian churches that exist in modern Syria and Palestine and of the Mohammedan church, whom he interviewed at first hand. Doctor Bliss was appointed to deliver the Bross lectures at Lake Forest university, Lake Forest, Ill., in 1908. He instantly went to Syria, which by the way was his birthplace, to gather material. He knew the Arabic language thoroughly, was able to converse with the leaders of the various sects of the country and the following Episcopal Church, Beirout, Syria. December delivered a series of lectures in which nobody could recognize an idea or illustration they recalled reading in any book. "I and interviews," says Doctor Bliss, "with the orthodox patriarchs of Antioch, Jerusalem—Greek, Catholic, Syrian, Maronite—who imparted valuable information. Missionaries, Roman Catholic and Protestant, gave of their knowledge and experience. Moslems of all classes freedly of their religion. "Learned books on the dervilsha have been consulted, but it was through the quaint tales of a gentle eyed sheik in Jerusalem, who left his humble task of scouring pots and kettles to make me a visit, that I learned, past all forgetting, that in spite of the wild demonstrations which travelers witness for a fee in Constantinople and Cairo the controlling motive of the dervish life is the hunger and thirst after righteousness." Doctor Bliss is dean of the University of Rochester. Curious Result of Adder's Pite As the result of an adder bite, recently, the back of the hand of a Cardiff (Wales) boy named J. W.

Thus far, the meetings have been an unqualified success. All are invited. With its issue of July 27 The Cleveland Gazette entered upon the thirteenth year of its continuous publication and all this time under the management of its redoubtable editor, Harry C. Smith. No one who has not had newspaper experience can form any conception of the amount of self-interest in the press, and ten in this long record. In season and out of season he has always contended for equal manhood rights for the race, and while he has accomplished much and was successful in having a civil rights law and an anti-lynch law enacted for Ohio, we do not be lieb his efforts are appreciated at one-fourth of their true value. We hope the appeal he makes to his readers to assist him in increasing his list of subscribers—doubling the same—so that he may enlarge the paper. The Gazette has done more to advertise Cleveland with the race than any other agency, and the one suggests the other. There should be no necessity for an appeal, and we hope that he may be spared for many more years of business and that he may be rewarded by making The Gazette all he desires it to be—Oakland (Cal.) Outlook. The Cleveland Gazette, one of the greatest race newspapers in this country, has reached the thirtieth year of its existence. It is a great thing for Negroes when they can lay claim to possessing such a brave and loyal champion as its editor, Harry C. Smith, and one friend with titillation and natural rejoicing which is his and theirs as a result of The Gazette's thirtieth birthday. During all of this long time Mr. Smith has had many trials that would have utterly discouraged a man with a less determined nature than he, but through them all, he has presented an apparent calm, and kept plodding along, as a permanent and a power in the community where he lives. In truth, Harry Smith is a household topic in Cleveland, and well might be he, for he is always on the firing line, where he is invariably found shooting his literary shafts into the enemy and criticising, when necessary, those of his people who are deserving of criticism. In conclusion, let us say, the man, brother, and know not his superior as a man—Martinsburg (W. V.) Pioneer Press, MUST VOTE FOR PROPOSAL, NO. 24. Ohio will vote on its new constitution, Sept. 3. Proposal. No. 24 provides for the elimination of the word "white" from the constitution of the state. Regardless of all other proposals, amending the old constitution and creating a new one for Ohio, to be voted on, on Sept. 3. Afro-American voters of this state MUST CAST THEIR VOTES FOR PROPOSAL, NO. 24, notwithstanding the fact that Proposal, No. 23, providing for women's suffrage, also provides for the elimination of the word "white" from the state constitution. The Afro-American voter, who favors women's suffrage, and wishes to vote for Proposal, No. 23, providing for the same, MUST Hon. David Cunningham. NOT FAIL TO VOTE ALSO FOR PROPOSAL, No. 24. We cannot impress this too strongly upon all, because, if the word "white" is to be eliminated from the state constitution; every Afro-American voter in Ohio, on Sept. 3, MUST VOTE FOR PROPOSAL, No. 24, regardless of whatever else he may do. Do not be misled into believing that voting for Proposal, No. 23 is sufficient; BECAUSE IT IS NOT! Therefore, let every Afro-American voter in the state of Ohio register, so he can vote "Yes" on Sept. 3, on Proposal, No. 24, and also see to it that every other voter, a friend of the race in his community, whom he can approach relative to the matter, does so, also. THERE MUST BE NO DIVISION IN OUR VOTE WHEN IT COMES TO PROPOSAL, No. 24. Allow no one to even try to make you believe that anything but our SOLID vote for Proposal, No. 24 will do. WE MUST VOTE UNITED LY FOR IT, or it will fail to carry at the special election Sept. 3. PASS THE WORD ALONG! NOT NEAR THE SUCCESS ANTICI PATED. An employee of the Luna Park office says that the Aug. 1 "celebration" had many less people in attendance than it had last year; that 2500 people, largely from out of the city, is a generous estimate of the attendance upon the alleged emancipation celebration of that date; and that the swimming pool was covered and closed to our people on that day, just as it always has been on such occasions in the past. Very little, if anything was made by the Cleveland Association of Colored Men, this year, as a result of that most unfortunate affair. Stay away from Luna Park as long as they discriminate against our people as they do. It will be time enough to go there when they open their dance hall, skating rink and swimming pool to our people, as well as all other pleasures and amusements on the grounds just as they do to representatives of all other classes who go to that resort. A few Civil Rights' suits against the Luna Park management would make them do this. The protest of The Gazette for weeks prior to Aug. 1, with that of our local Ministers' Alliance and the City Federation of Women's clubs, which culminated in the splendid mass meeting held at Cory M. E. church just prior to Aug. 1, were not in vain, but, on the contrary, were most successful indeed in that they kept hundreds, if not thousands of our people, of this community from Luna Park, that day. These people have the satisfaction of knowing that they not only refused to lower their self and race respect, their manhood or womanhood on that day, but that they also refused to enrich, to a greater or less extent, a park management that insults and discriminates against our people in public places by denying them the free exercise of their citizen rights, in the places mentioned, if not others on the grounds. The bottom has fallen out of the silly claim of an exceptionally large attendance, etc., made immediately after the day alleged emancipation celebration was held by the organization that promoted it.
