IN VULCAN FREED FROM THE WREATH WHITMAN IS VICTOR IN NEW YORK STATE Republican Candidate Is Elected Governor Over Glynn, Democrat, Sutzer, Independent, and Davenport, Progressive. PENROSE RE-ELECTED IN PENNSYLVANIA Senator Is Returned to Upper Branch of Congress by a Large Majority, While Brumbaugh, Republican Candidate for Governor, Is State's Executive. New York City.—Charles S. Whitman, Republican, was elected governor by a plurality of 129,642 over Martin H. Glynn, Democrat. James W. Wadsworth, Jr., Republican, defeated James W. Gerard. Democrat, by a plurality of probably 55,000, and the Republicans were given control of both branches of the legislature in a great Republican landslide which swept New York state Tuesday. CHARLES S. WHITMAN. The Democratic representation in the house of representatives was reduced from 31 to 23. The state senate probably will contain 32 Republicans and 19 Democrats. The new state officers who will go in with Gov. Whitman will be: Lieutenant governor, Edward Schoenke; secretary of state, Francis M. Hugo; comptroller, Eugene M. Travis; treasurer, James L. Wells; attorney general, Egbert E. Woodbury; engineer and surveyor, Frank M. Williams. Emery A. Chase was elected associate judge of the court of appeals by an estimated plurality of 40,000. REPUBLICANS WIN IN PENNSY Philadelphia, Pa.—Pennsylvania Republicans swept into power by such a landslide in Tuesday's election that the Washington party, the name of the Bull Moose contingent in the Keystone state, is practically wiped out of existence. Indications are that Senator Boies Penrose was elected by four times as many votes as were SENATOR BOIES PENROSE, polled by Gifford Pinchot, the Roosevelt candidate, and A. Mitchell Palmer, the Wilson standard bearer, combined. For governor the Republicans gave Martin B. Brumbaugh as large a vote as they did Penrose for senator. The Democratic candidate was Vance C. McCormick and the Progressive was William Draper Lewis. The result is considered especially significant in view of the fact that President Wilson came out very strongly for the election of Palmer to the senate, while Theodore Roosevelt made especially strenuous efforts to insure the election of Pinchot. Saratoga, N. Y. — F. Augustus Heinze, copper king and financier, died at 5:30 o'clock Wednesday at the home of Judge Nash Rockwood, Mr Heinze, whose legal residence was in Saratoga although he spent most of his time in New York, came here Tuesday afternoon to vote in the state election. He went to Judge Rockwood's home as a guest and was suddenly stricken late in the afternoon, growing steadily worse through the night and being unconscious most of Wednesday. THE GAZETTE WILLIS' PLURALITY OVER COX IS 30,000 Warden G. Herding Is Elected United States Senator by a Plurality Over Timothy S. Megan of About 75,000. HOME RULE AMENDMENT IS ADOPTED Republicans Elect Majority of Their Twenty-eight Candidates for Members of Congress, Capture Both Branches of Legislature and Put in Office Entire State Ticket. ELECTION RESULTS IN OHIO. For governor—Congressman Frank B. Willis, Republican, elected over the present incumbent, James M. Cox, Democrat, and James R. Garfield, Progressive. Republicans carry 13 out of the 22 congressional districts. Republicans elect the entire state ticket. Amendment asking for state-wide prohibition defeated. Amendment asking for woman suffrage defeated. Amendment asking special tax levy defeated. Amendment asking for home rule, a recognized wet proposition, adopted. Columbus, O.—Frank B. Willis of Ada has been elected governor over James M. Cox by a plurality that appears to be about 30,000. Warren G. Harding has been elected United States senator by a plurality over Timothy S. Hogan of about 75,000. The rest of the state ticket was carried to an easy victory in the sweep. Not only was it assured that Frank B. Willis was elected governor over James M. Cox by a net plurality of approximately 30,000 votes, and that Warren G. Harding has defeated Timothy S. Hogan by probably 75,000, but it appeared certain that Republican had elected a majority of their 22 candidates for members of congress, had captured both branches of the general assembly and had swept into office the Republican candidates for county officers in probably 50 of the 88 counties. Home Rule Amendment Carries. When Hamilton county rolled up a majority of 68,000 for home rule the day was saved for the amendment. Early returns indicated the defeat of the amendments, but the returns from the country districts against home rule have not been heavy enough to offset the big majorities rolled up in favor of the amendment in the cities. At wet headquarters it was estimated that home rule will win by 10,000 at the least. The Anti-Saloon League issued a statement admitting that the returns still to be heard from cannot overcome the lead attained by the advocates of the amendment. 1910 The suffrage, tax and prohibition amendments were decisively deafed. Republicans have probably elected, moreover, their three candidates for members of the supreme court, Frank Taggart of Wooster, candidate for chief justice, and Thomas A. Jones of Jackson and Edward Matthias of Van Wert, candidates for associate justices. The election of Jones and Matthias by large pluralities over Phil M. Crow, Kenton, and J. Foster Wilkin, New Philadelphia, Democratic nominees, is assured, but there is still some doubt of the defeat of Chief Justice Nichols, the Democratic candidate. If the three Republicans are elected the number of Republicans and Democrats on the supreme bench will be equal. Judge R. M. Wanamaker, the seventh member, is a Progressive. Cox Congratulates Willis. The election wrought a complete change in state affairs, ousting the Democrats, who have been in control Blind, But Casts Ballot. New York City.—Perhaps the most unusual method of voting used in Tuesday's election was that invented by a former traffic policeman who is now totally blind. He procured a sample ballot the same size as the regular ballot. Holes were cut in the sample ballot in the squares where the former bluecoat wished to mark his crosses. Entering the polling booth with the regular ballot the blind voter placed the sample over it and marked his crosses through the holes. ESTABLISHED AUGUST 25, 1883 AND ISSUED EVERY WEEK ON TIME SINCE. DR. SCARBOROUGH DEFENDS SCHOOL DR. SCARBOROUGH DEFENDS SCHOOL President of Wilberforce Replies to Magazine Article. EXPLAINS TRUE SITUATION. Unwarranted Attack on Noted Ohio Institution Greatly Displeases Alumni and Undergraduates — Wilberforce University With All Departments is Simply One Institution. Wilberforce — The indignation of Wilberforce university and a large body of alumni and undergraduates at the article under the caption "The New Wilberforce" found in the Crisis for August compels a reply, though we well know that unsigned articles anywhere usually merit only silent contempt unless the editor gives a tangible hold by becoming sponsor for them, says President William S. Scarborough of Wilberforce university. In such an article we are accustomed to seek at once the motives inspiring it. In this case we are wondering whether it was inspired by a malicious desire to strike the college department in particular, to belltake what it has done and injure its standing and work for higher education, or by a piqued spirit which sees an opportunity for retaliation, or by a spirit which thus repays personal favors through questionable eulogisms, or was it real, unadulterated ignorance steeped in egotism? We must leave it for readers and those generally acquainted with the situation to judge. One thing is true, however. No one is a real friend to the university or to any of its individual departments who DR. W. S. SCARBOROUGH. would strive thus publicly to magnify the work of any one department at the expense of another. And for any one to cull deliberately, isolate and twist facts to make it appear that there is but one department at Wilberforce that is worth while and to try to convey that it is not a part of Wilberforce, but a distinct school, is, to speak mildly, an unmilitated attempt to slander the whole institution, no matter what the motive. It becomes an attack that cannot be overlooked. Wilberforce has done much recently to honor the scholarly editor of the Crisis, and it has always stanchly upheld the cause and the association his magazine represents. Not three months ago it invited him to be one of the speakers during its commencement, and it readily acquiesced in his selection as one of the lecturers in the summer school (for the second time) in the department he eulogizes at $175 for five lectures. Wilberforce university is indeed courteously (?) repaid for this by the grateful editor. One thing we state at the outset. The "New Wilberforce" has been a verity for some years. It is Wilberforce university—the whole institution with all its departments and not simply one of them. No part can be greater than the whole. The determination of enemies, internal and external, to try to swallow up, to ignore, to misrepresent the very department that is the genesis of the whole, giving birth to all the others and fostering their growth, the part that stands for higher education—this determination all authorities here are agreed must not only be condemned, but put down. The department the article in the Crisis seeks to put for the whole and which calls forth such effusive praise was placed here by the state of Ohio in 1887, because it wished to help Wilberforce university, and this was the only way it could do so, and because it was just and right for it to be of service to us as we did not receive a share of the agricultural land grant under the Morrill act, which properly belonged to us, but which share went to Ohio State university. It was never intended to be an independent department, and it is not one now. The authorities, one and all, recognize that Wilberforce university with all its departments is a unit and not a conglomerate—n unit with but one bead, and that one the president of the university. The article in question is full of distortion. Facts are partially stated or omitted or put in wrong relations. The jumbled confusion of statements of the work done, of buildings, of cuts, of culled quotations—all seen seemingly used to mislead a public ignorant of the true relations that exist here and of the true work and workers. For example, the fact that the financial office of the C. N. and I. department is combined with that of the superintendency is due to no one's personality. It was so fixed by law some time ago, as was the bond to be given, and it has obtained for years. The sum mentioned as given in the last four years by the state includes moneys appropriated before that time for building purposes, but not available until later. We are proud of our senior cottage, arrangements and appropriations for the building of which were completed some years ago by the state, but one would infer from the writer's article that Emery hall was also a creation of the department he enologizes. This is not so, however. The funds—over $50,000—were raised by the efforts of the president and friends, and this dormitory for the girls of the college department is the one especially considered by all authorities to be the "most completely equipped dormitory to be found anywhere in any Negro institution." The military wing of our university, a cut of which embellishes the article in the Crisis, is a department that any institution may be proud of, but it is no creation of the department picked out for special laudation, as those unacquainted with the facts might regard it from the connection made. The United States government is pleased to maintain it still under the best of Negro instructors, paying all expenses, and has recently appointed Lieutenant B. O. Davis of the Ninth United States cavalry for the second time to take charge of it. The paragraph referring to enrollment is marbled so as to present a false idea. Figures certainly have no inherent power to falsify, but they may be made to say anything. Our enrollment for 1913-14 was 403. We do not pad our rolls. But there was no such increase as 16 per cent in any department to the knowledge of the president or the faculty. We have increased our enrollment yearly, we are pleased to say, and this increase has been most largely from without the state (over 300 last year), and the greatest per cent of increase anywhere is found in the college classes. The state of Ohio helps Wilberforce university by sustaining a department which has been gradually built up since 1887 through long years of labor and earnest work of those in charge. We are gratified at this confidence shown by the state in our entire work. We hope for more help. It is true, however, that the college needs funds. So does every institution for higher education in the land. It is no crime to need money. It is an easy matter, however, to sit down and spend money under direction or without it when one does not raise his hand to get it, but no recipient of such favors should congratulate himself upon unusual ability because of this condition. nor should he use the situation to "crow over" or to hurt any department which has to hustle to gather funds from philanthropy for its work. With such an attitude and similar statements from overzealous friends (?) Wilberforce university is apt to be more hindered than helped in its work. It can well exclaim, "Good Lord, deliver us from such friends." BELIEVES IN SCHOOL'S WORK Liberal Policy at the Wilberforce (O.) University Highly Commended. Wilberforce, O. President W. S. Scarborough, Wilberforce University: Dear Sir—The members of the board of education of Xenia school district and others who accompanied us on our delightful visit to this great university desire to express our high appreciation of the singular courtesy shown in our invitation. In our reception and in our entertainment. We desire to express also our firm belief in the importance of the work which the university is doing and in the faithfulness and ability with which it is being done. Particularly do we express our gratitude for the opportunity so generously afforded to pupils of the Xenia high school to pursue work in the university. XENIA SCHOOL BOARD. Manager Newport News Star Resigns H. C. Young, who has been serving in the capacity of business manager of the Star at Newport News, Va., for some time, has resigned. In speaking editorially of Mr. Young's leave taking, Editor Matt N. Lewis of the Star says, "With this issue of the Star, Sept. 25, our manager, H. C. Young, severs his relation with this paper and goes back to Norfolk to take up the work which he left when he came to us. We are thoroughly convinced that newspaper men who make a success must be born to the work and the practice, but increase their innate efficiency. All we can do is to hope that we may be able to find the person who shall be the star office and carry it on as efficiently and successfully as Mr. Young has done during the several months he has had the management." Big Victory For Anti-saloon League. At the September election in Virginia the Anti-saloon league of the state won a great victory over the liquor interests of the state. The law against the sale of intoxicating beverages in the state goes into effect the 1st of November. 1916. Women's Christian Temperance unions throughout the country are rejoicing over the victory of the Virginia organization and will fight the liquor sellers in their respective communities with renewed determination. ECONOMY IN USE OF SCHOOL FUNDS Progress of a North Carolina Institution Noted INFLUENCE OF GRADUATES. Agricultural and Mechanical College at Greensboro Shows Increase in All Departments—Success of President James B. Dudley as Educator and Defender of Human Rights. By GEORGE F. KING. Greensboro, N. C.-The North Carolina Agricultural and Mechanical college in this city, for the education of colored youth, begins the fall term with an increase in all departments. The faculty is composed of well known educators, and the school ranks among the best in this section of the country. Graduates of this school are to be found among the leaders of the race in many states. They are holding positions of trust and responsibility and are making good along lines of useful endeavor. Through the good work P. DR JAMES B. DUDLEY. which the alumna is doing the school has become wildly known throughout the state and the nation. The funds provided by the state for the use of the institution are economically and wisely expended. The president of the school, Dr. James B. Dudley, is a man of great executive ability, and his influence in the south argues for much in favor of the amicable relations existing between the two races in this section. He has been at the head of this school for the past eighteen years. Dr. Dudley is devoting much time and energy at the present time to the movement in this state having for its object better accommodations for the colored people on the railroads. He takes a manly stand against anything which tends to degrade or in any way retard the progress of the race. Some time ago, when the attempt to segregate the colored farmers was made, Dr. Dudley was foremost in defending their rights against this jim Crow policy. He does not seek to stir up strife, but bases his efforts on the law as it relates to each citizen's rights to pursue his chosen calling without being molested, so long as such rights do not infringe upon the privileges of others. He has a host of friends among the masses of both races and is a true exponent of the gospel of fair play for every man, regardless of race, creed or color. He believes in law and order; hence his wise counsel has been of great service to the colored people in this city and state. Wherever there is an attempt in any part of North Carolina to supplant members of his race by the employment of foreign labor Dr. Dudley is at the front pleading the cause of the colored laborer against injustice and race discrimination. Industrial education is impartial in the bestowal of its blessings. It offers its gifts to the people of every race or clime without restriction, and to the colored people of the south its offerings have a peculiar significance, says Dr. Dudley. The older men of the race who were leading men, hants and workmen among them wrought well in their day. They were masters of the art of getting good results. With the disappearance of the old guard the field for the Negro mechanic has been greatly reduced. They are being displaced in many sections by foreigners. This is a serious loss to our people, yet there is encouragement in the fact that we have it within our power to arrest this serious loss by thorough preparation which will enable our people to compete with any class of workmen that may come among us. Efficiency is the watchword of the age. The prepared man gets the job, and the man who can fill the requirements in promptness, exactness, honesty and reliability will not only get the job, but will hold it. The progress of the race thus far is due almost entirely to the fact that we early grasped the split of education and industrial pursuit, and if we continue to cultivate this spirit our future progress will be far greater. Hard training for special lines of work, a better knowledge of values and the courage of honest conviction will do much to sustain us in the great struggle of the survival of the fittest.

Willis: "I congratulate you upon your selection to assume the executive affairs of the greatest commonwealth and the most splendid people in the world." "Please accept my sincere thanks for your cordial message of congratulation," was the answer of the governor-elect.

All of which is very pleas- ing-and encouraging for the future. ‘The gain In the Congress representa- tion (in both branches) ig the best thing for the business of the country ‘that could possibly have happened. ‘The success of the Ohio Republican ticket, particularly the election of Governorelect Frank B. Willis and U. 8. Senator-elect Warren G. Hard- ing, our former colleagues in the Ohio Legistature, {s ‘all that is needed to enable “Buckeye” . Republicans to “come back” and swing this grand old Commonwealth back into the Republt- ean ranks to stay for another long term of years. The State Assembly has been regained, too, and will have a working Republican majority: in both branches. Ohio will have be- twoen ten and fifteen, if not more, of the twenty-two Republican members in the lower house of the next Con- greas, instead of only three as at present. Tuesday was indeed a glori- ‘ous. day. ‘The only “crimp” in our joyous feel- “ing is the failure of Columbus and Cleveland to elect their Afro-Ameri- can candidates for the Legislature. We need some gne of the race, 80 greatly, in that august body, these days, While Franklin county elected a few of its Republican candidates, thin Cuyahoga county, elected an = tire Democratic delegation to the State Aasembly as well as county tleket. ‘There are at least two causes: & poor ticket and poorer management of the campaign. This last caused (largely) the Democratic state ticket, particularly Gor. Cox and Attorney General Timothy Hogan, candidate for U. S. Senator, to carry the county by pluralities ranging between 15,000 ‘and. 20,000, In all our many years’ residence in this city, as a voter, we have never knawn Afro-Americans here-to vote s0 freely and openly for a Democratic candidate for governor as they did on ‘Tuesday last. ‘This can be traced, and easily too, to miserably poor manage- ‘ment, doubtless the result primarily of ignorance of political methods, etc., on the part of the individual of color charged particularly with the super- vision and care of our vote not only in Cleveland but throughout the state. Tt ought to be a lesson to those (whites) in the Republican party, here in Cleveland, responsible for the foisting of the individual on the Af-| rorAmericans of Cleveland and Ohio, | as well as on the Republican party of | the state, as a local and state political | adviser (member of the State Repub- | ican Executive Committee). Messrs. Harding and Will's, be it sald to their everiasting credit, endeavored to avold this very thing and would have succeeded but for the action of one | Harry L.

Harry C. Smith of Cleveland, Colleague of Hon. Frank B. Willis in the Qhio Legislature. ‘The gifted Colored Republican ora- tor of Cleveland, Harry C. Smith, came into Warren County Inst Friday and made three memorable addresses, one in Henderson Hall, Lebanon, one at Harveysburg. and the third at Waynesville. All three houses were packed to their utmost capacity, but not a man left until the last word was spoken. Mr. Smith was a member of the General Assembly for three terms, serving in the House with Frank B. Willis. He is a stalwart Republican and one of the best platform speak- ers in the state. If he returns to Lebanon he will easily fill the Opera House. It ig of great credit to the Colored race that two of the greatest orators who have appeared in the county this year were of their race. We refer to Mr. Smith and to the Rev, Mr. Wil llams, pastor of Allen Temple, A. M. E. Church, Cincinnati, who spoke for Prohibition some weeks ago, and who will return next Saturday for an af- ternoon meeting here and an evening meeting in Harveysburg. They would be @ credit to the people of any race. —Lebanon (O.) Western Star, Oct. 29, 1914. COLORED ATTORNEY SPONSOR. For the First Time One Introduces a White Colleague to the U. 8. Gianms Court: Washington, D. C.—For the _ first time in the history of the U. S. Su- preme Court a colored attorney, last. week, moved the admission of a white attorney to practice before the court, William R. Stewart, Esq., of Youngstown, ©. was admitted to practice, on Oct. 28, in connection with a damage suit brought by James Welsh, of Youngstown, against the Erie Railroad, and, Oct. 29, Stewart moved the admission to practice of Emil J. Anderson, another Youngs- town attorney. Until recent years there have been very few attorneys admitted to practice in the highest court, Each year, however, records an increasing number of colored at- torneys of sufficient caliber to have business before. the Supreme Court. For a’ colored attorney to stand spon- sor, however, for a “Caucasian” seems to have been without precedent.

Frederick Tay- lor, Indjanapolis pastor, on Oct. 27, told ministers (white) assembled at the interdenominational Institute at the Ninth Street Baptist church “the practice of ministers going from house to house making afternoon calls on church women while their husbands gre at work causes more trouble for the church than it does good. This calling business may pos- sibly suit some men but not me,” he said with much vigor. “I wish I could meet the man who started it. There is nothing about afternoon calls in the Scriptures. I go downtown to see the men in their places of business. ‘You cannot get this sort of fish with @ net, you have to use a hook and Iine—but, when you do land him, you feel that you have done something. ‘The other way is harmful.” A Founder Dead.

Condition of the School Laid Before ‘Trustess by Principal Washington. Dr. Booker ‘T, Washington's annual report to the trustees of the Tuskegee | (Aln,) Institute for the fiseal year of 1914, recently issued, covers 1a detail every phase ot the institution's activ- ftles. At the very outset Principal Washington. says: ‘While both the efftenston and pub- Uelty work are costly,’ nevertheless from every point of view it ts believ- ed that such work pays. |Our justif- cation for large expenditures in these two directions {s found In the fact that bit for the activity of Hampton and ‘Tuskegee in keeping the cause of Negro education before the people in the north and south interest in the subject would be waning instead of waxing as it is. In a word, every dol- ar that these two Institutions expend fn extension work sind publicity is helping all the Institutions in the south and the whole subject of Negro education. Indeed not a few of the most prom- inent white people in the south have expressed the opinion both in private and in public that both races in the south are constantly indebted to these Institutions for, newer and better meth- ‘ods of education, At tho close of the school term, May 28, 1014, we had registered total en- roliment of 1,§27—806 men and 631 women—who came from thirty-two states and territories and seventeen foreign. countries or colontes of for- eign countries. In addition to the at- tendance in the institute proper the average attendance at the Children’s House, our training school, was 201; tha average attendance during the agricultural short course was 275, and the average attendance during the summer school dast year was 412. During the past en years the cok ored farmers of the south have made the greatest progress since emancipa- tlon in getting farm property. ‘The re- sults of investigution show that in the single state of Alabama the Negro owns 1,500,000 acres of land, an in- crease of 250,000 acres in ten years. ‘The value of domestic animals which they own in the south Increased in ten years from $85,215,337 to $17,273,785, ponltry from $3,788,703. to $5,113,756 and implements and machinery from $18,586,225 to $36,861,418, The values of land and buildings have increased from $09,636,420 to $273,001,065. From 1900 to 1910 the total value of farm property owned hy the colored farma- ers of the south increased from $177, 404,088 to $492,808,218, ‘The new hospital at Tuskegee ts demonstrating its usefniness not only to the stndent and teaching body, but to the colored people In many parts of the south. Among the purposes It 1s serving are disease prevention, train- ing of a large number of nurses, op- portunity for young colored internes to be trained, and furnishing a place where colored people, especially those demanding surgical treatment, can re- ceive the best attention. ‘The urgent needs of the institute, says Dr. Washington, are $00 a year for annual scholarships for tuition for one student, the student himself pro- viding for his own board and other personal expenses inl Inbor and cash; $1,200 for permanent scholarships; money for operating expenses in any amounts, howeyer small; $1,500 for tencliers’ cotages; $40,000 for a build- ing for religions purposes; $16,000. to complete the boys’ trade bullding; $50,- 00 for a boys’ dormitory; $90,000 for a girls’ dormitpry; qn addition of at east $3,000.00 to the endowment fand. ‘The effectiveness of the work of the institute would, be many thmes in creased if funds’ for a new dormitory for boys'to cost nbout $50,000 and $5,- 000 for veterinary hospital could be secured. Legxcles paid in part or in full during the year amounted to $38,417.90. Other legacies, notice of Which was not recelyed prior to June, 1013, which also have been pal in full or ih part, amounted to $86,018.06. The total Feceipts for the year, in- cluding current expenses. were $473,- 764.92. The endowment fund at the present time Is $1,942.11208, For fur- ther details of the school’s Snancial condition Dr, Washington refers to the Sensiner’s Teport. His Alphabetical Family. Assistant City Prosecutor Souhrada of Chicago, in explaining his late at tendance in court told the Judge that "the stork supplied the letter ‘D' to may alphabetical tamily this morning.” “How's that? asked the court. “Well, we've got all the letters up to ‘H’ now. ‘D’ was missing, s0 we named the new arrival Daniel. He's fas fine a boy as you ever saw.” He named bis children over for the Judge. They are: Albert, Bernadetta, Charles, Daniel, Elsie, Frank, George and Helen. “When will Z be represented?” asked the court. “T give it up.” laughed the prosego- ter. SSA CLP a' @. .

The "dry" parade given by members and friends is several local Aro-American churches, Monday evening, with unique demonstration. The Christian Missionary Alliance band headed the procession to Cory M. E. church, where able and enthusiastic speeches were made by Revs. H. C. Bailey, Charles Bundy, G. V. Clark, E. A. White, Dr. Geo. W. Southwell, president of the C. E. Union and assistant pastor of the First Baptist church, and others. Spirited music was led by Messrs. Carroll Scott and Saul A. Lucas.

Smith's Ohio Civil Right's law, for discrimination against him in the skating ring at the "Republican Day" picnic last July, was compromised, last week for the minimum penalty. Messrs. Carver and Johnson (white) were Mr. Hill's attorneys. The latter is said to be one of the star fancy skaters of the state This is a good beginning. Now let our people keep it up until they wipe out the "color-lines" at Luna Park. The Du Bois Literary club met at Mrs. Rogers', E. 63d Et. Wednesday afternoon. The following persons were elected to active membership: Mrs. Della Eubanks, Mrs. Jas. Tilley, Mrs. Hattie Fairax and Mrs. Elizabeth Gordon.

The organization desires to thank all who contributed to the success of its recent concert at Cory M. E. church, when Miss Walker was presented. * * * Dr. Frank Johnson of Cincinnati and B. F. Stewart of Norwalk, who has a job as messenger in one of the state offices at Columbus held for several months by his son, were the speakers at the Afro-American democratic meeting held in Teutonia hall, last week Friday evening. It was the largest est race meeting held in this city during the campaign, completely overshadowing the three meetings held in Woodloft (ideal) hall, the past three months, in which public candidates. That doubtless accounts for the astonishingly large support given Gov. Cox, Timothy Hogan, Sheriff Smith and other democratic candidates, up Central Ave., on election day. Fleming, as a member of the Executive Committee, local and state, was so marked a failure that it is a matter of common comment in that vicinity as well as elsewhere in city and state and the twenty bars of the Ideal hall, the twenty evening, came near precipitating a riot and practically broke up that Afro-American Republican upet it is said. Only two speakers (white) were in attendance and they got out in a hurry. No wonder Gov. Cox got such a surprisingly large vote in this county, and the local democratic ticket was elected to a man, Tuesday. Harry L. Davis (white) is responsible for the appointment of Fleming as member of the State Republican Executive Committee. In preface Q, ward 12, in the heart of the Afro-American district (at Central Ave. and E. 12th St.), Sheriff Smith received 40 votes for re-election against Stannard's 36. HOW ABOUT YOUR Personal Appearance—Have You Pride In It—If So, Give This a Trial. The advertisement of the Nelson Manufacturing Co. of Richmond, Va., which will be found in another column takes a pride in their personal appearance. They are the originators of Nelson's Hair Dressing, a preparation that is sold in every state in the Union. It has been on the market for nearly twenty years and, today, has probably the largest sale of any preparation of its kind. Such a remarkable success will be possible unless the article had real merit. Many of our readers have no doubt used it and know of its value. Those who have not used it and would like to test it, can do so without cost, as the manufacturers offer to send any reader of this paper a liberal free sample, if they will enclose a two-cent stamp to the postage, and mention this paper. They will also benefit from Skin & Complexion Soap. Write today and get these samples and give them a personal test.—Adv. MILITARISM HAS NO PLACE Stern Indictment of Existing Order of Things Put Forth by Writer of Authority. The world shudders and lifts a hand that trembles from the very awfulness of war. An armature follows, the poets think that had been men—lovers, husbands, fathers—are gathered in all their hideous, mangled loathsomenes and buried. Ten men sit around a council table. The issue is still the shame, right is right, wrong is wrong. Both sides give and take. A treat settles what a thousand battles could not solve. Debt, taxes, pensions, be reavement and poverty, follow in an awful train, and so nations build an another army and navy to insure and protect peace. And the world hugs it mad deusion and squanders the suitance of its people for a life; for a life, either way you view it. If we are truly civilized, really, the product of the constructive forces of thought and intelligence, then militarism has no rightful place in our scheme of things And if militarism is by any possible argument justified, then we are not civilized; we are savages disguised by a veneer of culture; we are barbarians and patrons of the earth, shreds and patches."—Dr. Thomas E. Green in "Imbecility of Militarism." HAD TO PROVE THE HABIT Man Who Had Allowed Himself the Practice of Keeping Left Eye Closed, Got in Much Trouble. Physicians of Birmingham, Ala., recently called attention to the case of Thomas Armstrong, a boy of twelve years, who uses his hands as well as his feet for locomotion instead of walking erect. He has never known any other way of getting about. The juvenile court took the boy in charge in the hope of teaching him normal walking methods. Charles Appleton of New Orleans was the subject of illustration at a lecture given by a physician in that city not long ago. He had contracted the habit of closing his left eye. He said it rested his sight, he fancied, the left eye being the weaker of the two. The habit grew until he was not using it for reading purposes. At the lecture 'it was recited that everything had been done to break him of the habit, but without success, until he met with an adventure on a street car that ruffled him considerably. A woman boarded the car on which he was a passenger. He had his left eye closed as usual. She casually glanced at Appleton and remarked the closed eye without there seeming to be any cause for an apparent affliction. She looked once or twice again and made such an impression on Appleton that he was startled out of his habit and opened his eye. The woman looked, started, denounced him as a filtrer, complained to the conductor, waxed angrier the more she thought of the affair and finally had Appleton arrested. He had to prove his peculiar habit in order to escape WORK OF LAND GRANT COLLEGES Educators to Hold Meeting In Washington. WHAT THEY WILL DISCUSS. Representatives of the Various Schools Which Receive Government Aid Eager to Know South's Attitude on Smith-Lever Bill—Commissioner P. P. Claxton Among the Speakers. By N. BARNETT DODSON. Washington—The fourth annual conference of the representatives of the Negro land grant colleges will be held in Library hall on the campus of Howard university in this city on Wednesday and Thursday, Nov. 11 and 12. Professor Byrd Prillerman of West Virginia, chairman of the conference, is making an effort to have all the land grant schools represented. The subject of special interest be- fore this conference will be the Smith- Lever bill, which was passed by congress last winter. This bill makes ample provision for extension work among the farmers of the country, but, unlike the Morrill and the Nelson bills, it makes no special provision for the Negro. The distribution of this fund is left entirely to the states. Just what attitude the southern states will assume toward the Negro in the distribution of this fund is being watched with a great deal of interest, since it affects the interest of at least 7,000,000 colored people. The Association of American Agricultural Colleges and Experiment Stations will meet in the New Willard hotel Nov. 11, 12 and 13. The representatives from the Negro land grant colleges are eligible to membership in this association and will attend its PETER B. BURKE MAJOR R. R. WRIGHT. meetings mornings and evenings. Hon. P. P. Claxton, United States commissioner of education, has been invited to address this special conference of the Negro representatives in Library hall at Howard university Wednesday afternoon, Nov. 11, at 2 o'clock. Chairman Byrd Prillerman, president of the West Virginia Colored institute, will preside. The address of welcome will be delivered by Professor Kelly Miller, dean of the College of Arts and Science, and the response will be made by Professor W. C. Jason of Delaware. Following these addresses the representatives from the various schools, sixteen in number, will make brief reports concerning their work for the past year. The subjects and speakers for Thursday afternoon will be: "What Standards of Scholarship Shall We Expect of the Negro Land Grant College?" Led by President R. R. Wright of Georgia and President R. S. Wilkinson of South Carolina. "The Purpose of Industrial Education — Vocational, Educational, or Both?" Led by President James B. Dudley of North Carolina and President W. S. Buchanan of Alabama. "What Industrial Courses Are Most Profitable Educationally and Vocationally?" Professor F. H. Cardozo of Florida. "What Industrial Courses Are Most Popular With the Students?" "What Should Be the Minimum Requirements in Scholarship For Admission to These Schools?" "What Benefit Will Your School Receive From the Smith-Lever Bill?" will be discussed. "The Negro land grant college is the outgrowth of the congressional land grant act of 1882. This measure was introduced into the United States congress by the late Senator Justin Smith Morrill of Vermont in 1857 and finally passed in 1862. The bill granted public lands for the founding of state colleges to teach agriculture and the mechanic arts and allied subjects. An additional grant was made by an act introduced by Senator Morrill in 1890, which provided that in states and territories in which separate schools were maintained for white and Negro youth an equitable distribution of the fund be made between the two races. The act carried with it an appropriation of $25,000 a year from the federal government. The Duke's Question. The delicate operation of separating the French Slamese twins, which has just been successfully performed recalls Lord Houghton's story of a duke of St. Albans who went to inspect the original Slamese twins. The tale is retold in the London Express. The duke looked at the two boys, and then turned to their showman. "Are they brothers?" he asked. The showman's reply has not been preserved.
