Elk DRILL TEAM Picnic EIGHTEENTH YEAR. Elk DRILL TEAM ANOTHER (From the Press Bureau.) One more infamous decision has been added to the long list of infamies which have been and are salo groes of America. This case was decided last week by he Inter-State Commerce Commission in the case of Georgia Edwards vs. Nashville, Chattanooga and St. Louis railway. Miss Edwards purchased a ticket from Chattanooga, Tenn., to Dalton, Ga., and entered the car assigned to white passengers, and was promptly removed therefrom to the car assigned to colored people. Through her attorney, under the provisions of the Hepburn Rate Law, she filed a complaint alleging discrimination in the matter of accommodations for white and colored passengers. The commission heard arguments on the case, and held that there had been discriminations in the case in issue and ordered the railroad to correct the matters complained of, and, as in the Dred Scott decision of 1857, which held that a colored man could not be a citizen of the United States, Obiter Dictum, that a colored man had no rights that a white man was bound to respect, passed upon a question that was not before it at all, and held that the Jim Crow Car Laws of the south are legal and proper. That is to say, the commission had only one question before it, and that question was one of discrimination; but it went out of its way and held the infamous laws DARTMOUTH DENVER, COLO., FRIDAY JULY 26, 1907. OUTRAGE of the south to be legal even when they affect inter-state traffic. the law, as well as the law creating the commission, had, so far as we are able to ascertain, only the intention to give to the commission single administrative powers which would naturally arise during the development incident to this line of progress in our rapidly growing country. The congress did not delegate, and cannot delegate, the power to the Inter-State Commerce Commission to prescribe rules and regulations which properly belong within the sphere of legislation. It did not give to the commission, either in the act of 1887 or in the act known as the Hepburn Rate Law, the functions of a legislature. Its own powers in this respect are clearly and specifically defined. "Congress alone shall have power to regulate traffic between the states, with foreign nations and the Indian tribes." This position has been repeatedly affirmed by the supreme court of the United States. It was very learnedly discussed by Chief Justice Marshall, who speaking for the supreme court, held that the congress alone could speak on the question of Inter-State commerce. No state law, he held could be valid when it attempted to speak with respect to the regulation of traffic between the (Continued on page 2) State Historian & Natural History Society ESMAN BLOOMFIELD PARK Nashville Jubile singers we are convinced of his ability musically. When we reflect on the Amphim Glee Club of Washington, D. C., and the S. Coleridge Taylor Choral Society of the same place, of the choral bodies in New York, Chicago and Philadelphia we should have every reason for encouragement of every advantage and the door of opportunity leading to self-helpfulness and eminence and to better equip the negro should be heartily opened and held ajar by all regardless as to the class of music, especially that class so difficult to portray the author's soul revealing his diqerent natures. The Azalia Hackley Choral Society will produce a sacred cantata next Tuesday night at the Zlon Baptist church. The cantata is a rare piece of musical work which shows how well versed the author is on the Bible. The religious enjoyment, the spiritual uplift and the historical review, moreover the dramatic portrayal of those Biblical characters under such terrible conditions, will profit anyone who attends, besides the inspiration and stimulation that your support would give to the musical society who deserves your patronage.

With the eight horses prancing down the streets and attached to a tally-ho crowded with boys and girls bubbling over with life and fun and with six more horses hitched to another tally-ho whose seats were completely occupied including the bugler blowing his many musical solos, made that beautiful Tuesday night, with the moon even seeming to beam forth with a greater light for the "400," such a gladdened spectacle that it will take years to were there and danced at the Hiawatha at Sand Creek, and the grey morning caught the jolly crowd before they wrapped themselves in the arms of Morpheus. The Denver Club boys only again carried out their idea of success in making that coaching party such a memorable affair. SUNFLOWER BOQUET Wednesday night was an ideal night for any outing where the young people assemble in these sultry days for those not from Kansas. Everything some cool recreation. At cool Bloomfield Park with everything quiet and refrsehing because of the green trees and the lake only now and then troubled with a brisk but gentle zephyr, these merry sunflowers gathered to pour out their lifes' radiant joy to themselves in the form of yells, toasts, old college songs and stories of corn-fed hogs and long winged grsashoppers. So perfectly charming was the occasion that everybody present felt in the deepest sympathy for was Kansas, served in the Kansas style by Kansas people who happened to be carried to the park on a car controlled by a Kansas conductor. Everybody was wearing a broad smile because of the joy of that event and much credit was given to Messrs. Davls, Langston, Mallory and Parks, et al, because of the uniqueness of the affair. On Tabor Day, August 12th, the Knights and Daughters of Tabor will run an excursion to Palmer Lake. Excursions from Pueblo and Colorado Springs will meet them.

There were 50,000 in the block and a second lot is now offered. and though the price has been raised to 10 cents, 20,000 are already bargained for.

ELEVENTH ANNUAL CONVENTION The Eleventh Annual Session of the Western Negro Press Association will meet at Topeka, Kansas, Monday and Tuesday, August 12th and 13th, 1907. To the Press: Pursuant to the regular appointment under the provisions of the Constitution, the Western Negro Press Association of the United States, is hereby called to convene at Topeka, Kansas, in its Eleventh Annual Session, Monday and Tuesday, August 12th and 13th, 1907. All proprietors, editors, managers, reporters and correspondents west of the Mississippi river are eligible to membership in the Association and are urged to be there. We cordially extend an invitation to members of the fraternity throughout the country to meet with us in Topeka, Kas., to consider those questions so vital to the welfare of the race of this country. Recent developments, such as the Brownsville affair, Tillman's lectures against us, The Clansman by Dixon, and the publication of books and magazine articles with the avowed purpose of creating sentiment against us, show the need of action on the part of intelligent and thoughtful members of the race, and the press must undoubtedly take the lead. We would again urge upon every paper and its entire staff to make this meeting a personal matter, in order to secure a large and enthusiastic gathering. The executive committee:—Nick Chiles of Topeka, Kas., chairman; W. H. Twine, corresponding secretary of Muskogee, I. T., will apprise all western railroads of the convention and will request them to extend courtesies to the members and publishers of the craft. W. H. DUNCAN, President. D. B. FAW, Secretary.

The demand for the graduates from this department of the Tuskegee Normal and Industrial Institute is so far in excess of the supply that we are offering special inducements to graduates of other schools, and persons sufficiently advanced in the academic branches to come here and pursue the courses in agriculture, including practical farm work, dairying, livestock raising, etc. An opportunity will be given a few earnest young men to work out all of their board while taking a course.

(| ... |... ee ee Cephalopods Photographed by Thelr Own Light In Some Cases, A French writer in a scientific magazine tells of the great ocean depths of 28,000 to 30,000 feet, the temperature tending toward zero, the perpetual darkness reigning below depths of about 1,280 feet. At that level plants, deprived of light, can not exist. The animal life must be carnivorous. The.organs of sight, not being used, have become atrophied and disappeared. Yet there is light even in that sight- less world. A German exploring ship found a fish with enormous eyes at a depth of 6,400 feet. Phosphores- cence is common in these hollows of the sea. Sometimes special organs flash light. Sometimes the phosphor- escence is caused by a mucous secre- tion on the surface of the animal. The crustacean chrysophorus has not only huge eyes, but luminous organs, including what are, in éffect, a re flector and a lens. Certain cephalopods have actually been photographed by their own light. The luminous organs attached to the eyes allow the animal to see its prey. The other luminous organs may per haps be a lure to the prey. The deep sea life that swims sees. The eye less creatures are sedentary and do not need to see. Thus, even in that vast darkness there is sufficiency of light—Everybody’s Magazine. The Ranchwoman. The success of Mrs. W. N. Sherman and the beauty of her hospitable home, the famous Minnewawa ranch in Call- fornia, should be an incentive to every woman to hold fast to the home in- etinct while winning her way in the business world. In the face of much opposition and caustic comment Mrs, Sherman, soon after leaving an east- ern college, bought a large tract of un- improved land near Fresno, deter mined by her own efforts to develop its possibilities. Her success is indicated by the fact that Minnewawa Is valued at over five times the original investment. During the busiest season there are over 400 people at work on the ranch and fn the cannery. Since discovering that by personal oversight of the packing her grapes brought from $100 to $500 more per carload than when left to the su- pervision of others, Mrs. Sherman very sagely concluded that a woman can be a real helper, even though she leave the care of the household to some one else. Mrs. Sherman has not confined her efforts to raisin growing alone, but has a national reputation as a etock raiser and fruit grower.—Pil- grim. Don’t Think You Are Old. A certain amount of social life ts absolutely essential to the old as well as to the young. A woman never grows so old that she ceases to enjoy the cumpany of others, and generally the older she grows the more she en- Joys it. It is always a pity to see a man fall into a state which he ex- plains by saying: “Oh, we're getting old and don't care for so much variety in our lives,” says Woman's Life. In the pure selfishness of his soul he al- ways speaks of “us” and “we” as if it naturally follows that because he is getting antiquated his wife must keep pace with him in his decline. Let him keep in touch with the world, and both he and his wife will be the bet- ter and the younger for it. THE BIGGEST THING OF THE SEASON. GIVEN BY THE _ AND OF AT DAUGHTER KITTIE A.

The very weirdness and uncertainty constitute its chief charm, for thé more uncertain a thing, the greater the satisfaction when it is accomplished. Confirmed fly casters often ridicule the bait caster with the stubby rod, but I have used both and it takes fully as much skill and practice to manage the short rod as the long, whippy one, and bait casting offers a much larger field and larger variety of fishing than fly casting. A surface bait should al- ways be used, as a base strikes at the commotion made by the bait, not be cause he is hungry, but merely be cause he wants to fight.—Recreation, Modern Institutions Critleised. May 25 was the centenary of the death of Archdeacon Paley, who wrote “Evidences of Christianity.” The arch- deacon likened “the divine right of kings” to “the divine right of con- stables” and satirized the institution of private property by the simile of a hundred pigeons in a field of corn. If, ‘instead of each picking where and what it liked, taking just as much as ft wanted and no more,” ninety- nine of them were to reserve only the chaff and refuse for themselves ang heap up the rest for “the weakest, perhaps worst, pigeon of the flock,’ that, said Paley, would be just like human private property.

There is a good opening for a rooming house here if some good person would come and open one. Master John Pleasant was agreeably surprised at the home of his mother, Mrs. Alice Pleasant. A good number of young people were present. All had a good time and after refreshments they departed to their several homes. Mr. Preston Cottermus came home Saturday evening to find his house full of people who had gathered to welcome him on his birthday. Mr. Cotterman will not forget his birthday very soon from the way he uses the pillow when he sits down. Many handsome presents were received.

Man Deplores the Growing Use of Senseless Slang These Days. "I'm not opposed to the idioms of speech, providing they are expressive." said the senior member of a stock-broking firm, of Philadelphia to the Record, "but I certainly do deplore the growing use of senseless slang. I may be old-fashioned in my fears, but I predict that the time will come when pure English will be as unintelligible to the so-called 'up-to-date' people as a foreign language. I'll give you an example. Last week the son of an old friend of mine came to see me regarding some investments. I had met him only once, but this the way he greeted me: 'Hello, governor; I've been tipped that you're the main squeeze in this layout, and I want you to brush me up on the game. I'm shouting that I'd be willing to cough a few cases if you put me wise to a dead-sure thing. I've been bucking the ponies, and the con artists certainly trimmed me to a finish. No mire for mine. I want to stack up against a kid-glove layout where there's a chance to cop out some simoleons.' I didn't know what he meant, and, excusing myself, called out my stenographer. This is the way she translated it: 'Good, morning; I understand you are the head of this concern, and I seek advice. I wish to say that I will gladly pay a commission of a few dollars for advice regarding a safe investment. I have been risking my money on horse races and the bookmakers cheated me so outrageously that you may be certain I will never again gamble in that way. What I seek is a respectable channel of speculation where there is an opportunity to make money.'" New York Language. A New Yorker is never discharged from his position. Sometimes you get a hint of what happened to him when he sinks to the commonplace of saying that he was "fired." This is not often. Along Park Row, a reporter is never discharged. He is "hit by the iron ball." If you look puzzled and press an inquiry, he will say impatiently: "Oh, I got mine to-day!" or "I was lofted!" or again, "I hit the ceiling." Should these expressive verbal shafts fall to penetrate your oraque intelligence, he will look steadily at you for a moment and say: "My dear boy, I was let out—I was divorced from the payroll, and the next time the canonized bones burst their cerements, I will not be on guard to see the ghost walk!" This, of course, makes the situation plain.—Hartford Times. And Still She Brags. Maud—Has your wife been married twice. Miggs—Yea. Maud—Does she make you angry by telling you what a nice man her first husband was? Miggs—Yes. Maud—What did he die of? Miggs—He didn't die. She got a divorce from him because he beat her.

H., always endeavored to smooth over any little differences between pereons brought before him. On one occasion the charge was for a technical assault, and it came out in the course of the evidence that the parties were neighbors and had been on the best of terms for some years. “It fs a great pity,” said the judge, “that old friends, as you seem to have been, should appear before me in such a way. Surely this is a case which might be settled out of court.” “It can't be done, judge,” answered the plaintiff, moodily. “I thought of that myself, but the cur won't fight.” Putting it Strony. The story goes that all the 1906 onion crop of Bermuda has already been sold in advance of production to an Englishman who proposes to bring put a cure for consumption, having onion-juice for its chief ingredient.— BMartéord Courier. Music Halis the Fad. Paris, like London, is deserting the theaters for the music halls. The the- aters are too expensive, the runs of plays too long; the “star” system tends to make the program a or e-per- son affair, and, in brief, the theaters bore the people—the music halls amuse them. Value of System in Work. It ts wonderful to see how many hours prompt peopie contrive to make of a day; it !s as though they picked up the moments which the dawdiers lost. Ard if you find yourself where you have so many things pressing upon you that you hardly know how to begin, take hold of the first one that comes to hand, and you will find the rest all fall in line and follow after, like a company of well-drilled soldiers; and, though work may be hard to meet when it charges in squads, it is easily vanquished if you can bring it into line—Exchange.

Deputy Sheriff Sumner Soule of Kennebec county, Me., was known in Bis younger days as “Sum Soule.” He was not of a very religious turn of mind, but one evening happened to at- tend a revival meeting. He was not entirely at ease during the service, but at the close he listened attentively to th speaker’s invitation for those de siring to be saved to come forward. After repeated and urgent invitations a hushed silence fell upon the congre- gation. Finally, with a despairing ex- hortation, the minister cried: “Won't some soul come forward?” This ap- parently becoming too personal for “Sam Soule,” unnerved him, and, seiz- ing his hat, and with a muttered “Not by a darn sight,” he made a dash for the door.

AN IDEAL COURT PRAYER Commended by Judge for Brevity and Common Sense. Prior to the commencement of a term of court at Manchester, N. H., several years ago, Judge Doe, in his usual brisk way, requested the sheriff to invite some clergymen to make the customary opening prayer, provided one could be found who would be brief. The sheriff, in his quest to fill the bill, met the Rev. Mr. Buckley, a minister who had charge of one of the city churches. The sheriff told him what was wanted, that the prayer must be short, and suggested that the quicker he could earn the $3 fee allowed the more satisfactory would be his efforts. While demurring to the mercenary and commercial spirit of the invitation, Mr. Buckley concluded to accept, and immediately repaired to the court house. A brief introduction to the judge, call of silence by the sheriff, and the minister's dignified form arose. With closed eyes and solemn visage he slowly and impressively delivered the following brief prayer: "Oh, Lord! bless this court and bless these lawyers; make them feel that life is short and time is precious, not to be wasted in empty declamation, for Christ's sake, amen." Judge Doe afterward said this should be adopted as a model prayer for such an occasion. FATE READY FOR HIM. Not Written That He Should Escape Double Collection. A very dear old person, who has no regular church home, but who wanders abroad and takes in the cream of pulpit oratory, was complaining the other day about his hard luck. "It's mighty queer," he said, "but it would almost seem to me as if it was a put up job. It must be fate, though. Every time I go to church nowadays they bring a double collection on me. I don't mind the usual plate a bit, but this matter of slipping in extra demands for gold jars me. It is driving me from the church habit altogether." "Never mind," said the dear old person's dearest friend. "Come to our church and you'll be treated squarely. We've got a good minister and good habits." Last Sunday the man visited his friend's church. And for the first time in the church's history there were two collections. One was the regular and the other was for the benefit of a little struggling church away down South in Marshall, N. C. It was fate with a big F, but the dear one paid up like the little man that he is.—Brooklyn Eagle. Most Useful Book. A Savannah preacher says: "Take a book with you on a journey."

In McCullough vs. the State of Maryland, 4 Wheaton, 316, Mr. Justice Marshall defined the power of the state and of the congress respect. ing the general subject of their inter- relations, and clearly left no room for any other agency to speak with re- spect to the power of congress but the congress itself. Later, in the case of Hall vs. DeCuir, 95 U. S., p. 275, it was held that the regulations of a state could have no force when they attempted to affect inter-state traffic. {put aside from the question of the power of the commission to decide upon a matter properly before it when that decision carries with it a power legislative in its character, it is very firmly established that its attempt to pass upon a question not properly in issue before it can have no legal ef- fect. It is clear that the commission does not aim to act in a judicial ca- pacity in determining the question of discrimination raised by the petition of Georgia Edwards, but that it aims to appeal to a sentiment in the coun- try which ,at the present, seems to sanction a violent propaganda to re enslave the Negroes of the country. What will the colored people do about this infamy? It ia far worse than the Dred Seott decision, in that it comes now, after forty years of quasi freedom; at a time when the colored people of the country have the balance of political power and can decide the political destiny of the country. You are face to face with the slavery which the strong arm of President Roosevelt, through his In- ter-State Commerce Commission, is as was done at Brownsville, forcing upon you. What will you do at this late day when the branch of the executive department of the government de. clares for the legality of the infamous and degrading Jim Crow Cars of the South, and basing that declaration up- on the ground, as pronounced by the commission in the past, of justifiable public sentiment. Whither? The colored people of the United Statse demand the re-instatement of the discharged and disgraced batallion ofthe Twenty-fifth infantry. They will not be satisfied with promises; they must have the re-instatement of the men and the back pay given the men with all of their rights prior to their lynching at Brownsville, Texas. ‘They demand this as a matter of right, and until this is done there will be ‘war to the knife. In the battle there is to be no yelling from the house top, but we are going to strike where it will be felt and remembered. Our cry will be the offenses of the presi- dent of the United States, Browns- ville and the decision of the Inter- State Commerce Commission. Both proceed from the same source and both are prompted by the same spirit —a desire to win the affections of the South and pay the southern senators for their contemptible vote in passing the rate bill. Down with such un- Americanism. The Washington, D. C., Record takes a good and strong position on the Jim Crow decision _of the Inter- State Commerce Commission, It prop- erly designates it as an effort to make us slaves, giving, as it does, a warrant to the country as a whole to place all manner of discriminatory restrictions upon us. We are glad to see the Rec- ord taking this advanced ground on this horrible crime. | It is not well for the colored people to take the “feeler” sent out in the Washington Merald last week about the president making certain recom- mendation in behalf of the~ soldiers too seriously. It is an effort to as- certain the attitude of the colored people in the light of the promise. Keep quiet at the place you will be heard, but speak at the ballot box where you will be felt, and felt in no uncertain way. The colored people of the country owe a solemn duty to Senator Foraker for the battle he has fought for the triumph of constitutional liberty. No man, not even Sumner, ever risked so much; no man ever fought more valiantly, no man ever deserved so well of the people whose cause he is championed. The colored people must defend him, must stand up for him no matter what the cost or how great the danger. For us, no sacrifice is too great to be made; we have entered the fight for Foraker, and we are in it to stay. { President Wilbur P. Thinkield had just as well learn that there is an undercurrent against him in this city which will draw him out to sea. His progressive and aggressive program in dealing with the employes of the university, as well as with the pro- fessors, will give him regrets unless he has a care. It is rumored that he has been very harsh with some of the employees and that some of them on this account have left for a more con- genial clime. This is sowing the wind, Dr. Thirkield beware!

Cassell and Miss Mae Burnett of Prescott, Ariz., were quietly married last Wednesday at the residence of Mrs. R. B. Faucett in the presence of a few friends. Rev. G. H. Byas officiating. Mr. Cassell recently returned from Prescott. He is the son of J. R. Cassell, one of the old residents of Albuquerque, and at one time one of her most prosperous citizens. Cassell, Jr., bears the distinction of being the first colored child born in Albuquerque. The friends of the newly married couple wish them success. D. L. Jackson, the only colored mine owner, to our knowledge, in New Mexico, after a very pleasant visit with his wife, who is here for her health, returned Wednesday to his home in White Oaks. The Emancipation Proclamation will be celebrated with much enthusiasm by the citizens of Albuquerque on August 4th, at Red Men's hall. Everybody is invited to attend. A fine program has been arranged for the occasion. A case entitled Theo. Tompkins vs. Mrs. Green, was tried before Justice of the Peace W. W. McClellan Wednesday morning, and the dismissal of the case was won by T. O. Mason who delivered an eloquent plea in behalf of the defendant. Tompkins brought suit to recover $15 which he claimed he loaned to Mrs. Green on May $1. It was brought out in the testimony that Tompkins had geen keeping company with the defendant and had, upon several occasions given the woman presents and taken her buggy riding. Mrs. Green maintained that Tompkins made her a present of the $15 out of the fullness of a generous heart, and that at the time of the gl he had no intention of asking for it return. Tompkins claimed that he merely loaned the money to Mrs. Green, when she came to him and asked for it in order that she might attend a bargain sale and purchase some articles of wearing apparel. He admitted that subsequently a coldness had grown up between the defendant and himself, but said that his change of sentiment in regard to the woman had nothing whatever to do with his bringing suit for the recovery of the $15. He said he exacted no note from Mrs. Green at the time of the alleged loan for the reason that he respected her and had confidence in her honesty. T. O. Mason, the proprietor of a barber shop on Third street, who defended Mrs. Green in the action, has been studying law for two years and expects shortly to be admitted to the bar. In conducting the defense Mason showed considerable talent. The case was dismissed on the lack of evidence, and the costs charged to the plaintiff. THE STATESMAN. DENVER. COLORADO. Last Monday a bum minstrel tent show from Texas played in our city, and customary to its dirty southern methods attempted to make distinction in color in the reserved seats. Geo. Harrison and Wm. Mosby, two of our most respected citizens, took exception to the action and warrants were sworn out and the managers of the show paid cost of court and the show was delayed several hours. The A. M. E. church is preparing for a grand barbacue dinner to be held in this city August 22. Mrs. Anna Miller, one of our most popular ladies, left Monday for her home in Waco, Texas. Joe Harris, one of our local preachers, became suddenly deranged last Sunday. His min has been wavering for some time, due to his hard study on religious ideas. The friends of Harris are very sorry to learn of his condition and hope for a future recovery of his mind. The contestants of the recent civil service examination passed with comparable ease. On return of their report from Washington it was shown that they all made a very good grade. We are pleased to congratulate them.

C.—His reign was the last the shortest and the most wicked of all the Babylonian kings. He lived in that great city, Babylon, the capitol city of the Babylonian Empire, a city of about 2,000,000 and enclosed by a wall 80 feet thick and 300 feet high. He concludes to give a great feast which is to surpass all previous feasts in points of grandeur and revelry in the celebration of the achievements of his army which has never been defeated, and which at this time is engaged in war with the Medes and Persians (Jews). For this great event he has invited a thousand of his lords, his many wives and concubines. He has also commanded many of the Jews, in derision, whom he holds in the city as slaves, to come and assist in the merry-making, on account of which the Jews are very sad at heart. The night for the feast has arrived. The guests are assembled. The wine is flowing freely and all are making merry except the oppressed and despised Jew. Belshazzar comes down from his throne and calls for the golden vessel robbed from Jewish temple at Jerusalem by his grandfather, Nebucadnezzar, which is regarded as the greatest of crimes. Then the hand-writing on the wall! Now he sees—now the cup falls from his grasp—hushed is the revelry and laughter and song. Now he calls for them agi (interpreters) then for good old Daniel. One event is now crowding fast upon another—now the Persian army storms the city and the proud Babylonian king and all are prisoners.

THE AMERICAN TYPE AS DISTINCTIVE AS THAT OF OTHER RACES. Prominent Features of a Century or More Ago Are Still in Evidence Children of Uncle Sam Easily Recognized. There is as distinctive a type of American manhood as there is of any other country. True, the American people are a mixture. We combine several different races and bloods. But the intermixtures has gone on so gradually, the original American type always prevalent, that the American is a distinct representative of civilization, differing from the Englishman, the Frenchman and the German, as much as these differ from each other. Examination of the portraits of revolutionary times and those of the present date show little if any difference between the men of the earlier times and those of the present day, save in the matter of attire. Dress the people of the present day as were the people of the revolutionary epoch appareled and nothing could be found to establish a notable difference between the American of to-day and the American of the last quarter of the eighteenth century. Food, climatic conditions and occupations have all much to do with the physical peculiarities of a people. The races that have for centuries received no admixture of foreign blood retain peculiarities that seem unchangeable. What people eat and drink, their dwelling places, the soil and climate they inhabit, their worship, amusements and work all determine looks. The American Indian when first met on this continent by adventurous Europeans lived almost exclusively on a meat and fish diet, the product of chase and other adventure. He was tall, thin, muscular and daring. His eye was bright, his hearing acute. He looked the fearless being that he really was. He had to fight wild beast and savage man. He feared neither. The early white settlers, obliged by the peculiar conditions of pioneer times to live in a measure like the Indians, became also tall, thin, muscular, daring. Their eyes flashed with the fearlessness that characterizes the American race of the present. We have a more generous and varied diet than our ancestors. Diet affects personal appearances in marked degree. We are becoming a larger and heavier race, but the distinctive features of a century or more ago are still in evidence. The American is easily recognizable everywhere he goes in foreign lands. He will for a long time present the same type that to-day distinguishes him from men of all other races.—Louisville Herald. 2149 Curtis Street JAS. F. CLARK. J. N. B.

There is a class of Americans whose love of liberty and equality of opportunity before the law is so strong that they want to include all American citizens, even the negro; there is a class of citizens who want the negro to have some rights; that he be let alone, get money, property and make a useful citizen, but make him understand that the Caucasian is his eternal superior and hence has superior rights; there is another class who want the negro utterly annihilated and lastly another who wants him deported. When the negro is compelled to be harrassed eternally with these discouraging circumstances, amid this severe competition of all classes of races when now for his perseverance, welfare and progress, he needs every privilege, advantage and immunity, no wonder he is now pausing to consider his crisis. When rights are being bargained away for party considerations; when it takes papers like Kelly Miller's "Appeal to Reason" to answer the Tilmanic Vardamanisms; when it takes the Constitutional League of Massachusetts to protest against the inauguration of national Jim Crow cars, which history has shown to be first steps to disfranchisement in any country; when it takes strong and pointed letters from A. B. Humphrey, secretary of the New York Constitutional League, protesting to Congressman Knapp of the 28th New York district for his opposition to the quartering of the Twenty-fourth infantry in a New York post; when the white Elks in convention assembled at Philadelphia adopted resolutions appointing a commission to devise ways and means to prosecute the colored Elks and also to confer with congress to find means to prevent the use of the Elk emblem, as well as a resolution reprimanding the Newark lodge of New Jersey for electing a man alleged to be a negro; 2032 Downing Ave. EVERYBODY GO THIS TIME. --- PAGE & THE NEGRO RUBICON. THE STATESMAN, DENVER, COLORADO: TERMS when Ray Stannard Baker has been compelled to go through the South to get information concerning the strained relations of the two races; when a new negro constitutional league of Missouri, of which Bishop Abraham Grant is president, had to be organized for their protection from being Jim Crowed when there was and is a class clamoring not only to temperarily fix the negro's status, but now to permanently fix his place lower than other races, and lastly when these conditions exist and we must acknowledge and sternly face them, do you wonder why we ask, "Watchmen, what of the night?" What do these conditions mean and whither are we going? Does it mean that people who suffer in common must, because of for their protection and welfare If it does, then the poorer classes of the common people with the negro must come together, stnd together and hang together, or else they will hang apart. The Caucasian is organized to do his part and so must the negro, especially when he is passing through such a terrible crisis of his liberty. He had to fight to win his freedom and he will have to fight to win his liberty, subterfuges and compromises to the contrary notwithstanding. THE BEST INSURANCE. Commonwealth Life.

TOO TIOKLISH TO BE MEASURED Affliction That Compeiled sa Irishmen to Wear Old Ciethes. The Rev. Dr. voseph Twichell toi4 a story at the dinner of the Friendly Bons of St. Patrick, which wou him the hearty applause of the four bun- dred Irishmen present. “T was making my first trip about Dublin,” said Dr. Twichell, “and I had engaged a jaunting car. While I went into a store my ‘jurvie’ fell into « cop- versation with another carter, whe was the most tattered specimen of Rumanity I ever saw. When we start- ed driving again J asked my ‘jarvie’ if the other carter was a friend of his. “Shure, an’ he is, yer honor; he's my best friend,’ was the answer. “Isn't he a bit ragged?’ I asked. “Shure, an’ he ain't nawthin’ else.’ “"Is it because he’s so poor? “*Naw, yer honor, he’s plenty of money.’ “*Why, doesn't he buy some decent clothes, then?’ “*Why, yer honor, I'll tell yer, he's that ticklish there ain't a tailor in Dublin that can measure him, eo he has to wear what he has on.’”"-—New Yerk Tribune.
