Is Glad to Ma
Some time ago, in an editorial, The Statesman criticised the Denver management of the Boy Scouts for showing discrimination against the enrollment of colored boys. Our charge coming to the notice of the organization, was taken up and a statement made in the following letter, which is so unequivocal that we publish it both to give the facts as they are and by way of apology. For once we are sincerely glad that we have been wrong. While we did not wrong intentionally, yet we were wrong, we regret it and we make the correction cheerfully.
Denver, Colo., Dec. 11, 1911.
Mr. C. A. Franklin, Editor of The Statesman, 1026 Nineteenth St., Denver, Colo.
Dear Sir: I regret exceedingly that absence from the office prevented my seeing you when you called this morning, as I would have liked very much to have discussed with you the subject raised by your editorial in the issue of The Statesman of November 18 last, and covered in my letter to you of the 28th ultimo.
A meeting of the local committee of the Boy Scouts of America in Denver was held this noon, at which I conveyed to the members the substance of your editorial and my reply thereto, all of which provoked a general discussion. I find that the position taken on the question in my letter of the 28th ultimo to be the unanimous opinion of the local committee.
We gladly welcome the advent of colored boys in the Boy Scout organization, and hope that many will avail themselves of its suplendid training.
I sincerely hope that you have corrected the wrong impression which your editorial has made and the injustice done the members of the local committee. I would appreciate it if you would advise the boys of your race, through the columns of your paper, that they are not barred from becoming Boy Scouts on account of their color; but, on the contrary, are welcome. The formation of patrols and troops is left almost entirely to the boys themselves, and the control of the local committee is merely exercised for the purpose of seeing that a high standard is maintained.
Yours very truly,
F. S. TITSWORTH,
Secretary of the Boy Scouts of America in Denver.
Boys who are interested in this movement, parents who realize what it will mean to their boys, will be directed what steps to take if they will make inquiry at The Statesman office.
BUSINESS MEN OF LITTLE ROCK
Marked Progress Shown In Rise of Two Energetic Toilers. CASES WHERE MERIT COUNTS
Arkansas Afro-Americans Who Have Achieved Success In the Public, Professional and Civic Life of Little Rock—Former Letter Carrier Now Superintendent of City Delivery.
Little Rock, Ark.—A record of the achievements of the colored people of Arkansas, particularly of Little Rock, nighes interesting reading. The struggles some of them have had in order
to gain a foothold and a competency would be more startling than the veriest fiction.
Perhaps Little Rock is the only town of consequence in the country where there is a colored superintendent of city delivery, a man who has worked his way steadily from carrier to the biggest position in that division. Under him work a large number of white and colored carriers and clerks. He is business first, last and all the time. and in the twenty-one years he has been connected with the postoffice he has made many friends among the white and colored patrons of the office
In gaining this position H. H. Garner has simply done as others have done who have forced recognition in spite of color prejudice. He has stuck to his work, working during hours and after hours, familiarizing himself with every detail, and in the end making himself indispensable. It is a hard thing to get around the cold records of civil service procedure, and when confronted with the fact that here stood the logical man for the place, whose knowledge of things and conditions fitted him, besides whose record was behind him, there was but little else to do but appoint him to the position he now holds.
Frank A. Young, grand keeper of records and seals, Arkansas jurisdiction of the Knights of Pythias, is one of the foremost young men in the state. He occupies a position of commanding influence among them, although he has only lived in the state a little over ten years. He has had more to do with the erection and maintenance of the old ladies' home than any other individual, that institution being built largely through his efforts.
Mr. Young owns some valuable real estate, lives in one of the most beautiful homes in the city and was ve-elected for the fourth time to his present position. He served on the finance committee and committee on homes for the Business league and was chair-
FRANK A. YOUNG.
man of the committee on toasts. He stands high in secret orders, among them the Odd Fellows, Masons, Pythians and Mosaic Templars. Before entering the real estate business he served for ten years as a railway mail clerk, and only by economy and close application to business has he worked himself up to his present position of influence in the state.
Young Women's Christian Association. The work of the Young Women's Christian association in St. Louis is progressing rapidly under the leadership of Mrs. Elizabeth Ross Haynes and her efficient band of coworkers. The young women of the city seem to be thoroughly aroused and are joining hands with Mrs. Haynes in an effort to build up a large membership.
BROOKLYN MOTHERS UNITE.
Young Organization of Parents Makes
Its Initial Bow.
Among the more recent organizations under the leadership of the women of Brooklyn and one which promises large results in personal help to the mothers of the various communities is the Mothers' club. The organization had its inception in the thrift and industry of Mrs. Smith Ferebee and Mrs. Adah M. Talbott, who communicated their ideas and plans to several other interested mothers, including Mrs. H. S. Newton, and the result was the formation of the club.
One of the objects of the Mothers' club is to create greater interest in
MRS. SMITH FEREBER
the family life of the community by getting the mothers together often in conference for the discussion of the many problems incumbent upon them in the rearing of their children. In such a discussion consideration will be given to the needs of children at different ages and how to meet them; the literary, moral and religious atmosphere which should pervade the home; the proper attitude of parents toward their children and kindred subjects. A circulating library of the best books for mothers will also be a feature. The first public function of the Mothers' club was recently held at the Carlton avenue branch of the Y. M. C. A. and was a gratifying success socially and financially. An appreciative audience was present to enjoy the spicy literary program, which was rendered by able talent.
Mrs. N. B. Dodson, president of the club, presided over the program, which was as follows: Congregational singing, invocation, piano selection, Mrs. George E. Wibecan, Jr.; introductory address, Mrs. Dodson; piano solo, Master Ackerman Phillips; dramatic reading, Mrs. Mary M. Taylor, and an address by Inter国际 Secretary W. A. Hunton of the Young Men's Christian association.
The officers of the club are: Mrs. N. B. Dodson, president; Mrs. Smith Ferebee, vice president; Mrs. Adah M. Talbott, secretary, and Mrs. Frances Harrison, treasurer.

GRAND JUNCTION, COLO.
The Christmas tree was a great success. Many good presents were handed out from it, while the children rejoiced. Mr. Henry Clay knows what to do with a Sunday school.
The choir of late has been rendering some fine music under the leadership of Mrs. L. A. Morris.
A few weeks ago the pastor performed the matrimonial tie between Mr. Bruce Johnson and Mrs. Ada Wilson of Pueblo, and of course Christmas dinner was in order and truly he was not forgotten. The turkey was there but he didn't gobble—the other fellow did that.
I am glad to say that among the eight papers I read regular, The Statesman is the most welcome visitor. I go out to meet the postman every Monday morning to get The Statesman, and read everything in it. It's newsie.
The death of little Lottie Jane Lee Langon, whose parents are prominent citizens of original duration, was quite a shock to all in the city who knew her. Only twelve years old, yet an extra little Christian, with surprising Christian influence, whose death has caused several to turn to the Lord, attempting to use her little life as a model, she died Sunday morning and funeral was held from the A. M. E. church, where she was a member. Interment in Mesa cemetery on Christmas day. Peace be to her remains and spiritual life to the bereaved.

NOTES OF THE ZION BAPTIST CHURCH.
The men of Zion outdid themselves in the banquet which was served to the ladies of the church last Monday evening, when three hundred sat down to a most delightful repast.
The church auditorium was transformed into a huge dining room with 250 feet of tables, beautiful in white linen, china, glassware and silver. These were taxed to their capacity and a more delightful evening was never spent by the church.
Among the guests of the men were a number of friends from other churches in the city whose presence added to the pleasure and delight of the evening. Each person was served to his heart's content with as elaborate a menu as the city and season could afford. There was roast turkey, brown gravy, French creamed peas, mashed potatoes, cranberry sauce, tender celery, potato salad, bread and butter, black coffee, ice cream and cake and each diner was served till enough was said.
And, ah, the cooking. It is doubtful whether mother herself could excel it. (This is the verdict of the women.)
The service was par excellence. Bro. Bert Ellis acted as head waiter, owing to the fact that Bro. Chas. Muse could not leave his work in time to take charge. Bro. Muse came a little late and rendered most efficient help in making things go. The waiting force was made up of men of experience and never was better service rendered.
The most difficult question the men had to face was to convince the women that the food was actually man-cooked. But it's a fact. The pastor is willing to stake his reputation on it; he actually saw them at it. There was J. R. Green, J. J. Bates, S. R. Elam and Peter Fosseff. These are the guilty parties and a better team never entered a kitchen. However it would be a difficult thing to make a list of all who worked. It is easier to simply say "the men of Zion," assisted by a few of our staunch good friends, that's enough. The women declare that they are going to even up with the men and there is no question of the ability of the women of Zion to do it, though some of the men are doubters.
The pastor is delighted. Again the congregation has shown its possibilities. The good to the church work can hardly be estimated and the contention of the pastor that men fully organized are a power in the church work is more than justified.
On the whole the banquet was very like one seen recently in El Jebel Temple. Zion has against set the pace.
The holidays are now past and the church is considering a series of meetings under the preaching of Dr. Tillman of Wichita, who will probably begin January 14th. Dr. Tillman is one of the strongest men in the country. When a people want the pure, unadulterated gospel, he has it.
Next Sunday is our covenant and communion service, which will be held at 2:30 p. m. We hope that every member possible will be present.

REV. THOS-HAZEKL TENDERS
RESIGNATION.
The congregation of the People's Presbyterian church is up in arms against a sea of troubles. Rev. Thos Hazell has notified it of his having tendered his resignation to the Presbytery. While no cause is given, it is understood that he is led to take this step because of the lack of thorough whole-hearted support from all his congregation. Too many of them have allowed their part of the responsibility to be carried by others. His ambition to make the church a powerful factor in community life, his zeal to hold high the banner of the cross has thus been hampered and he prefers not to preach than to do so without the support and encouragement of all his members. In no sense is his action a protest against the financial conditions in the church
To cause him to reconsider, and to influence all to do what duties membership entails, some of the members are planning a meeting at which the congregation will pledge itself anew to the work of the church.
COLORED BOY LEADS SCHOOL IN SCHOLARSHIP AND DEPORTMENT AND INDUSTRY.
Luther Long of Pueblo set the pace for his fellow students at the State Industrial school for the past year and was rewarded by a $10 gold piece, the gift of Senator Schermhorn.
BACHELOR GIRLS
Possibly the jolliest bunch of girls in the city are the Bachelor Girls. They have kept the holiday season gay with their entertainments and if a few of the real bachelors could have peeped in Miss Morella Josephs home on last Friday they would have been just a bit jealous.
The meeting was interesting from start to finish. Mrs. Bert Patrick carried off the first honors, while Miss Eva Cooper carried home a small deck of cards to console her.
Miss Joseph invited Miss Ethel Burns, Mesdames H. G. Johnson, Bert Patrick and W. E. Parks to meet the girls.
The Eureka Literary Society will have its annual election of officers Jan. 9, 1972. All members and friends are requested to be present. A splendid program will be rendered: Piano solo, Mr. L. Good; vocal solo, Mr. Fred Clements; select reading, Mr. C. F. Starks, piano solo, Miss Edna Freeman; vocal solo, Mr. J. A. Garfield; journal, Mr. F. V. Ward.
Zion Sunday school is going to have a special feature in its work in the way of a projecting lantern which will be used to illustrate the work by showing views of the Holy Land and the llke.

NOTED EXPERT IN SURGERY.
Physicians Praise Skill of Dr. Daniel H. Williams.
MAINTAINS HIGH STANDARD.
Story of Eminent Surgeon Who Has Successfully Performed Many Critical Operations—Considered an Authority by the Medical Profession—Staff Member of Several Institutions.
By CARY B. LEWIS.
Chicago.—Dr. Daniel H. Williams of this city, the eminent surgeon and physician, is maintaining an unusually high standard in the medical world. Since his early rise in the field of surgery he has been called to various sections of the country and has performed the most difficult operations with skill and ability. So successful have been these operations that the great surgeons pronounce his technique as marvelous.
Twenty-five years he has toiled and accomplished until he has been the "open sesame" to unexplored fields of research and means of giving to the medical world a wider knowledge and a better understanding of the laws governing the human body. The large number of critical operations which Dr. Williams has so successfully performed has been quoted throughout by the medical journals and works in surgery. It was a signal race victory when he was placed on the staff of St. Luke's hospital. In fact, he is the only colored surgeon who has done work at a white institution having the prestige which St. Luke's has.
In 1910 at the third annual session of the Indiana Association of Physicians medical men clamored for admission to an operation which he was to perform at the City hospital. Entrance to the operating rooms was a great privilege, never before granted to a colored surgeon. He is recognized by physicians generally as a medical authority. It is to such men as this and to such work as Dr. Daniel Williams is able to perform that the race owes its progress and stability. He is the in-
DR. DANIEL H. WILLIAMS. spiration of the climbing and the despair of those who have but small faith in this people's possibilities. It is very fitting that such work should crystallize in a clinic at Provident hospital. On Tuesday of every week the internes of the hospital and those doctors of the city who desire to attend are benefited by practical illustrations and treatments given by Dr. Williams. Here they are given the opportunity of coming into immediate contact with a master mind and hand in surgery.
Provident hospital cares for a thousand patients annually. Its dispensary treats and relieves over 3,000 applicants yearly. Its district nurses visit and assist a thousand persons annually. From this school a hundred colored women have been graduated as professional nurses. The school's influence upon the race for better citizenship is invaluable. These facts make it the logical place for the clinic and the kind of work it will do.
Dr. Williams has rendered Meharry university splendid service since he has been staff member of that institution. It is here that he brings to the southland a practical demonstration of the ability of the colored man in science. From this institution men go out to all parts of the world the better for the training which he has been able to give them.
Dr. Williams is connected with the leading medical societies of America and takes an active part in them. In June, 1900, Wilberforce university conferred upon him the degree of LL. D. because he had risen to the heights of his profession and referred to as a "great surgeon" without racial modifications.
Conservatory Gains Capable Tutor.
The faculty of the school of expression. Washington Conservatory of Music, has been much strengthened by the recent appointment of Mrs. Carrie Clifford, a student of the University School of Oratory, a lecturer and reader of much experience and an active worker in all worthy race enterprises. Mrs. Clifford is honorary president of the Ohio Federation of Women's Clubs.

ROMAN FOR REVIEW EDITOR.
Claims of Able Scholar to Be Placed Before A.M.F. Conference
Nashville, Tenn.-In the discussion of candidates for the various offices to be filled at the coming session of the general conference of the African Methodist Episcopal church next May southerners are beginning to wonder what about many of their men. Ira T. Bryant at the last conference opened the way for a more pronounced recognition of the merits of the laymen for those positions not calling for particular qualifications appertaining to the clergy.
Not only has Ira T. Bryant opened the way for the laymen, but he has set the pace for clean, clear cut efficiency such as has not been set by any of his predecessors nor beaten by any of the older officials, whatever their capacity or merit. Mr. Bryant's claims for consideration, which will without the shadow of a doubt be met at the general conference in a favorable manner, make consideration for other well known and efficient laymen more favorable. A fellow townsman, a specialist of national fame and a man who has

C. V. ROMAN, PH. D.
made, in the work of editing, a monthly magazine that ranks in its matter with any other of its kind, comes before the church asking to be placed as editor of the A. M. E. Church Review. This layman is Dr. C. V. Roman, eye, ear and nose specialist of Nashville and editor of the Journal of the National Medical association.
At the recent ecumenical conference in Toronto Dr. Roman delivered an address that was pronounced by the Daily Guardian, the official organ of the conference, to have been "the most brilliant five minute address of the entire session and a notable contribution to Methodist theology." Dr. Roman is versatile, a good speaker and known as level headed, such as a man ought to be who edits the official organ of a great church like the A. M. E. Church Review.
H. T. Kealing, who for a long time served as editor of the Review and now serves in the same capacity without pay, has set a high standard for any man who follows him. Of the various candidates Dr. Roman is not only able from the viewpoint of keeping up the high character of its literary merit, but is so situated that he can strike a happy medium for the vast constituency which the Review serves. His candidacy is a worthy one and one that is likely to be regarded very seriously by the men who want to maintain the high standard of the publication.

WORK FOR THE UNFORTUNATE
Much Interest Has Been Aroused by Progressive Afro-Americans In Wilmington Favoring Co-operation With the Red Cross Society—Dr. W. H. Moore Pledges Loyal Support.
Wilmington, N. C. There is a growing interest in this section of the south to conserve movements for the good of humanity, and the better element among the Afro-Americans is quite conspicuous in giving impetus to commendable activities. A notable work that is an essential factor in alleviating the suffering of the lowly element of both races in this city is the Red Cross society. This organization is encouraged by the progressive Afro-Americans. Foremost among them is a quiet, unassuming, but progressive minister in the person of Dr. W. H. Moore, pastor of Shiloh Baptist church.
He is identified with many organizations which are directing the Negro's activities into avenues of higher usefulness. He believes that our people can become a desirable element in any organized body which has for its object the proper development of the masses. "I believe that as a race we should register the fact that we are not aliens to anything that meets the approbation of good citizens. The Red Cross society is doing a good work
A. E. H.
among us, and it is a concrete index to the fact that we must become more public spirited for our good.
"We need in this city many other movements that will reach the element of our race that is left to evil tendencies. What we need is a movement that will reach the class of our young people who have not had the proper kind of environment. There is an encouraging spirit on the part of our leading colored men and women of this state to work for the unfortunate of our young people, such as the reformatory for the youth of the race, which is now the cynosure for those interested in saving the young.
"This organization will prevent hundreds of the youthful incorrigibles from becoming associates of hardened criminals, and hundreds of this class of boys who are sent to the road will become inspired by the principles of the institution in which they will be trained and will live useful lives. I will contribute all that I am capable of giving to any movement that will help us and the community in which I reside," said Dr. Moore when he was asked by a representative of the press what was the inclination of the Afro-American folk in North Carolina toward any effort for charitable purposes.
Dr. Moore is highly esteemed by citizens of both races in this state. He is an optimist and believes in the great possibilities of the Negro becoming a worldwide factor in the advancement

of Christian civilization. He is an im mirer of young men who are interested in themselves to the extent that they will sacrifice much to make material advancement. After receiving his literary training he did pedagogic work in Pender county, this state, and later accepted the principalship of the graded school at Conway, S. C. During the period that he was reaching the lives of hundreds of boys and girls of his race he felt divinely called to the ministry. In 1805 he was ordained and became a power for the advancing of the cause for which he had been especially prepared. He soon became one of the leading ministers in the Middle District Baptist association.

YOUNG WRITER REVIEWS BOOK BY FORMER TEACHER
"Quest of the Silver Fleece" Like Unto
"Uncle Tom's Cabin."
New York. I propose to put aside my notebook on advertising thoughts for the time being and tell you about "The Quest of the Silver Fleece," the novel by W. E. Du Bois. I first saw Dr. Du Bois when I was a schoolboy. He had come to my little Georgia town to deliver an address and stopped for two days at my home. When he left I accompanied him to the station. In after years I met him at Atlanta university as student and teacher.
In the classroom 1 worshiped his philosophy of life, and from the platform 1 marveled at his teachings. I took every opportunity to drink deeply from his knowledge of men and things, upper worlds and lower worlds and of 10,000,000 black people, despised, ill treated and misunderstood. Through these years of direct and indirect association I thought I knew the man, but it remained for "The Quest of the Silver Fleece" to open my eyes to the fathomless depths of his knowledge of human nature and his "inner strivings" for justice to his people. As I had always met his written thoughts in a serious, pessimistic vein I feared I might lose him in fiction, and with a feeling of curiosity I began his novel. From curiosity the feeling rapidly changed to interest and bewilderment, and at the finish the 400 pages seemed but a chapter, and I learned for more to read.
Unlike many books, it will appeal to all men; it is so human. The puritanic New Englander, the busy, indifferent northerner; the hot headed, radical southerner; the patient, thoughtful Afro-American, will find in it some truth he had not known, some thought he had thought and lost awhile and a revelation of real yearning, which is, after all, but a human desire for fair play.
You awaken to find yourself in the black belt of Alabama, dense with swamps and underbrush and denser still with ignorance, vice and superstition. Out of these murky depths there come a black boy and a brown girl, whose fortunes you eagerly follow from this blackness to the light of intelligence in Washington and back again to this same blackness to carry this new light. You see the cotton growing in the fields, you hear the hum of the cotton gins, and you peep into the secret council of moneyed men who control markets.
Every phase of the Negro problem is discussed before your eyes ere you are aware what is happening.
The hideousness of prejudice, jim-crowism and peonage are vividly and truthfully touched in the author's fascinating style, and every once in awhile one feels like shouting. "Oh, consistency, where art thou?" The book will live, and in after years we will teach our children to read "Uncle Tom's Cabin," a story of slaves, and its remarkable sequel, a story of half slaves. "The Quest of the Silver Fleece." These two great books must live together.

Progress of the Christian Recorder Under Editor R. R. Wright. The healthy growth of the Christian Recorder, edited and published in Philadelphia by Dr. R. R. Wright, is worthy of the highest commendation. When Dr. Wright took charge of the paper it had been discontinued for the first time in many years on account of the illness of Editor Johnson. Its subscription list had dwindled to about 3,000. Within less than eighteen months the paper had been enlarged and nearly 2,000 new subscribers added to the list, the circulation going beyond 5,000 regular subscribers and the circle.

of special editions going beyond even 20,000. At the same time the editor, unlike his predecessors, has had to attend to the business as manager. In this, besides keeping the Recorder up to the standard, he has doubled the number of employees, having a payroll averaging over $100 per week, and according to the report, the receipts of the Book Concern have been larger for the past two years than any other two years in its history. Such has been the rare ability shown by Dr. Wright in handling both the business and editorial work of the A.M. E. publication department that his friends are urging upon him to relinquish the business, believing that with his preparation, his experience and natural ability he could, if his energies were directed solely toward editorial work, make the Christian Recorder one of the best religious papers published in this country.
Young Men's Christian Association. Robert P. Hamlin, former secretary of the Carlton avenue branch of the Young Men's Christian association in Brooklyn, is authority for the statement that there are among Afro-Americans in the United States ninety-three student and forty city associations, with an aggregate membership of more than 12,000 men and boys. There are nineteen buildings costing from $2,000 to $32,000 each. The greatest need at the present time is better equipment. Mr. Hamlin was appointed to the international field in June, 1911, and is doing excellent work.
Why "Grandfather Clause" Would Fail. The election of United States senators by the direct vote of the people was the subject of Senator William E. Borah's lecture at the Academy of Music in Brooklyn the first week in December. In answer to some legal point in connection with his idea of direct nominations, the senator said that the so called "grandfather clause" had never been properly presented and if it were it would fail by reason of the fifteenth amendment.

There is a well-defined rumor that in one of the smaller banks of this city the colored help are to be displaced. This comes as a rude shock for the city banks have uniformly employed colored men.

GRAND ART EXHIBITION.
Splendid Collection of Paintings and
Drawing Shapes and Patterns
Drawings Shown in Brooklyn. The first exhibition of original paintings and drawings by colored art students of Greater New York was recently held at the Carlton avenue branch of the Young Meu's Christian association in Brooklyn. There were fifty-eight different subjects in the collection, showing the works of Miss Marion Buckley, J. Clinton De Villis, Ernest Braxton, Robert Lewis, S. R. Franklin, Charles Dawson, Miss Elsie Powell and Percival C. Thomas.
In the collection presented by Mr. De Villis were many scenes along the coast of Long Island, mountain scenes in New York state and the old stone bridge at Hartford, Conn. The landscape scene by Miss Marion Buckley was particularly good. In the list submitted by Mr. Ernest Braxton were "A Modern Philosopher," "D'Artagnan" (water color). "The Tambourine Girl," "A Critical Inspection," "Homeward Bound" and "The Picture Book." Besides two excellent portraits, Robert Lewis showed "A Byway at Bergen Beach," "In the Park," "Grapes and Penches" and "The Fisherman." M. R. Franklin's work consisted of roses, a study in roses of different hues. Charles Dawson's studies from the antique, book cover designs and a class study were very classical.
Miss Elsie Powell presented class studies in charcoal. P. C. Thomas had as foreign scenes "Chinese Junks on the Yangtzekiang." "A Breeze In the China Sea." "South Cape Light and Isle of Formosa." In water colors by the same artist were shown "The United States Gunboat Wilmington In a Typhoon, China Sea." "Japanese Junks at Anchor, Inland Sea, Japan," and "A Winter Day In Hakodate, Japan."
HARDWORKING MINISTER.
Rev. W. A. C. Hughes' Splendid Record at Baltimore Charge.
Probably no young minister in the country is credited with a more successful record as a pastor than the Rev. W. A. C. Hughes, pastor of the Sharp Street Memorial M. E. church in Baltimore. He was not thirty years of age, when he was sent to the church nearly seven years ago. He found that the congregation was a large one and that the church debt was way up in the thousands.
Besides raising the money to pay off the expenses incident to the running of a large church, he has succeeded in reducing the church indebtedness to $17,000 and will pay this year alone $2,500 on the principal and will keep up the interest. The money to pay the various demands of the congregation has been raised by a unique system of rallies, the planning for which was done by Dr. Hughes. In one—the war of the roses—over $3,500 was realized. A successful rally netting $1,200, which was reported during the week instead of on a Sunday, was announced the latter part of November.
During his ministry Dr. Hughes has received many flattering offers from congregations in other cities, and a movement has already started among influential members of his church looking to his return for the eighth successive year. During his pastorate there he has been active in various civic movements and was one of the leaders in the recent anti-disfranchisement campaign
CITIZENS' ASSOCIATION
TAKES FESLER TO TASK.
His Method of Labeling Candidates
For Office Called Unfair.
The Citizens' Association For Civil
Interest in Cleveland, O., recently sent
the following protest to Secretary Mayo
Fesler of the City Municipal association,
in which exception is taken to the
secretary's method of giving the race
or color of candidates for public office.
Dear Sir--The undersigned, members of
the committee appointed by the Citizens'
Association For Civil Interests, in compliance
with your request are sending "in
writing" the protest made recently to you
in person. The association, composed of
leading Afro-Americans of this city, pro-
tests against your "labeling" as "Negroes"
and "Colored." Afro-American candidates
for public office in this city and
country.
First, because this harmful discrimination is done in their case only; secondly, because there is no good reason why any class of citizens should be so "labeled" or designated in your reports. It would be equally unfair and insulting to so "label" or designate Jewish, Irish, German or candidates of other nationalities or classes, and yet if this sort of thing is allowed, it would be another candidate of the different nationalities or classes should be similarly treated in your reports.
It is the merest nonsense to argue in defense of such insulting discrimination that the nationality or class of other candidates is indicated by their names. There are many Jewish, Irish, German and other class candidates constantly before the public whose names do not indicate their nationality or class connection. For Civic Increases protests against such manifestly unfair treatment of local Afro-American candidates and respectfully requests its discontinuance.

SCOTT'S NOTES.
The watch meeting attracted a large and enthusiastic crowd. One person was happily converted and started the New Year in the service of the Master. After the services refreshments were served. Mrs. Anna McPherson donated the ice cream, Mrs. Anna Rice and Mrs. Ada Castry donated the cakes, Mrs. Claudie Pash donated cream for the coffee. We wish to thank the committee who served the people so royally.
The clubs organized for the New Year's Rally are requested to make a full report next Sunday, either morning or evening. Let every loyal member rally to our assistance. We have some pressing obligations which must be met immediately.
Sunday sermon topics: "The Carnal and the Spiritual." Romans 8:6 "Vicarious Healing." Isaiah 53:5 These are subjects leading up to a revival. Let us have a revival for the New Year.
"ePace be within thy walls, and prosperity within thy palaces." Scott's is enjoying an era of peace; let us fondly hope and pray for the prosperity. The elimination still goes on. We hope for the better.
The clubs now organized for the New Year's Rally will remain in force. Work will commence for the paying off the mortgage of the church and parsonage property after Sunday.
Mrs. Ada Gastry was unanimously re-elected president of the Epworth League last Sunday evening. The remaining officers will be elected Thursday evening at the parsonage where a banquet will be held.
The Official Board will be held Monday evening. All officers are urged to be present as business of importance will come before the board.
The choir has put in their new chairs. What organization will carpet the pulpit and the isles?
Club No. 1 will formally organize Tuesday evening and continue its Dawson is the captain. Let the other clubs organize and prepare for the debt-paying rally.
The Widows' Leap Year entertainment netted a great sum for the rally. It will be repeated January 15th, at which time the prize will be awarded to the successful widow.

CANDIDATE FOR REVIEW EDITOR
BISHOP FAVORS DR. BANSOM
Friends of Noted New York Pulpiteer and Race Champion Would Like to See Him In Editorial Harness—His Success as Church Builder and Financier.
By CLEVELAND G. ALLEN.
New York.-At the general conference of the A. M. E. church which meets at Kansas City next May several general officers of the church are to be elected. Besides the three new bishops to be elected, next in importance comes the office of the editor of the A. M. E. Review, which is one of the most responsible and influential positions in connection with the church. Among the candidates for this coveted office is the Rev. Dr. R. C. Ransom, pastor of the Bethel A. M. E. church in New York, who is one of the ablest pulpit orators and race champions in the denomination. Dr. Ransom is well known in the A. M. E. connection and has pastored
P. A.
many of the most influential churches in the large cities of the country with decided success. In Chicago he made a notable record in building one of the finest institutional churches to be seen anywhere in the country. Dr. Ransom came to Bethel A. M. E. church five years ago from the Charles Street A. M. E. church in Boston. During his pastorate Bethel church has become a center of spiritual and intellectual uplift and the scene of many important and historic gatherings.
A marked increase in the membership of the church has taken place, and the $4,000 bonded debt on the church has been paid. As much as $3,000 has been raised at one time toward the defraying of the expenses of the church. At the last quarterly meeting the church had to its credit $1,400 in the treasury with all of its debt paid. Bethel church is one of the best organized churches in the city, and Dr Ransom's pastorate has commended itself to the bishops of the A. M. E church and the connection in general. He was born in Finland, O., and entered Oberlin college, where he studied two years. Leaving Oberlin, he went to Wilberforce university, graduating from the college and theological departments. He studied at the University of Chicago and while in Chicago was employed by the lyceum bureau as a lecturer.
Dr. Ransom has been indorsed for the editorship of the A. M. E. Review by Bishop J. Wesley Gaines, who is one of the most picturesque of the A. M. E. bishops. The A. M. E. Review is one of the strongest church organs. A large number of Dr. Ransom's friends are anxious to see him elevated to the editor's chair of the Review and feel that he would add dignity to the office. Dr. Ransom's reputation as a writer, especially upon subjects bearing upon moral and religious subjects, is well known. The naming of Dr. Ransom for this office was entirely unsolicited on his part.
Moseses to Meet In Brooklyn in 1912. The next annual encampment of the Grand United Order of Moses will be held in Brooklyn, beginning on Tuesday, October 15. There are several tabernacles of the order in Brooklyn, with large memberships. These will co-operate in making the plans for the 1912 convention. Joseph E. Matthews is highly enthused over the matter and may be depended upon to contribute largely of his time and experience when the time comes for making permanent arrangements for the entertainment of the delegates.

A GIRL'S WILD MIDNIGHT RIDE.
To warn people of a fearful forest fire in the Catskills a young girl rode horseback at midnight and saved many lives. Her deed was glorious but lives are often saved by Dr. King's New Discovery in curing lung trouble, coughs and colds, which have ended in consumption or pneumonia. "It cured me of a dreadful cough and lung disease," writes W. R. Patterson. Wellington, Texas, "after four in our family had died with consumption, and I gained 87 pounds." Nothing so sure and safe for all throat and lung troubles. Price 50c and $1.00. Trial bottle free. Guaranteed by all drummers.

THE STATESMAN—6
LARGE DELEGATION PRESENT.
Professor R. B. McRary In Lengthy Address at the Forty-second Annual Session of the State Masonic Fraternity Tells of the Progress Which the Order Is Making.
By GEORGE FRANCIS KING
Greensboro, N. C.-The forty-second annual session of the grand lodge, Free and Accepted Masons, of the jurisdiction of North Carolina recently held in this city was an epoch making event for Afro-American Masons in this section of the country. Over 800 delegates were in attendance. They represented the intellectual and progressive element of the race. It is the strongest fraternity in the state. It has made excellent investments, such as North Carolina bonds, and has over $16,000 in the endowment department.
The well known scholar and capitalist Professor R. B. McRary, who is an excellent example for the young of the race and whose rating places him among the moneyed men of the state, is the most worshipful grand master for the state. Owing to his ability as a financier and business man the order has never before experienced such glowing results.
Colonel James H. Young, the well rounded business man, is the endowment secretary; Dr. O. S. Brown, the well known educator, pulpiteer and public spirited man, is the grand secretary, and A. Middleton is the grand treasurer. These, with W. S. Simmons, are the grand lodge officials. The report of Colobel Young shows that during the past Masonic year $49,700 has been paid to the widows and orphans and a large sum to charitable institutions.
The annual address of Professor McKary was the most mastersy effort ever heard by the grand lodge. He said in part: "Not only are we making our record on the pages of history, but we are making the pathway for our successors to future and much greater achievements. Our march will have no broken hearts in its wake, nor will it be stained with innocent blood. Our object is not war or persecution, but upon our harriers, proudly waving, are inscribed the insignia of the triple alliance—"Brotherly love, relief and truth." These institutions that are summed into existence simply to meet so
A. H.
clevy's transient demands are writing their history in sand. Not so with Masonry. The principles upon which it is founded are fundamental.
They spring from the institutions of our moral, intellectual and social nature. Those who travel this way, as many have done before them, have only to hold themselves erect, as they have been taught to do, and not as the beast whom Sallust tells us "nature hath formed prone to the earth" in order to behold the ever increasing light, whose full influence marks the orient of perfect knowledge.
A Mason should never allow himself to be influenced by personal bias, petty feary or competition in business in an unfriendly way. A Mason should never be a "knocker," lending color to the defaulance of the character and reputation of his business. If he fails to overtake in a fault, remind him in the most friendly manner of his error. I desire to call your attention to a circular letter of inquiry sent out for the purpose of gathering information in regard to the material status of the craft in this state.
Of the nearly 400 letters of inquiry thus dispatched 310 have returned answers. I have prepared a tabulated statement of the same for reference, but I will only give you at this time the several summaries as they now appear. The 310 lodges constitute a membership of 7,303. One hundred and fifty lodges own halls with a probable calibration of $154,170. Number of bedrooms is 4,570, recalling the fact that more than 50 per cent of our homes: 4,234 farmers, and 2,292 own their farms; 715 mechanics, 19 lawyers, 65 doctors, 842 business men, 342 college graduates, 324 professional teachers, 642 licensed preachers and several college presidents; 6,696 church members, well nigh 100 per cent.
I verily believe that Masonry is to play no inconspicuous part in helping on the solution of the vexing problems that are taxing the brains of statesmen, philanthropists and Christian leaders of today. The book to do so of which I tended with the order will live up to its principles and tenets and close our doors to such as will not try to square their lives with such teaching.
The address occasioned a great demonstration. Professor McKary and the other officials were re-elected for another year. The next annual grand lodge will convene in Asheville, N. C.

Wage Earners' Bank Electa Teller. The progress which the Wage Earners' bank is making in Savannah, Ga., is one of the many encouraging signs of the renewed confidence which the race has taken unto itself and in those of its number who prove their ability to safely and intelligently conduct large financial concerns. The business of the bank has increased so rapidly recently that it became necessary for the directors to elect a paying teller. The new official is R. A. Harper, who is known to be well qualified for the position.
Universal Estimation of America. The wholesale lynching of colored people in the United States for and without cause has placed the American people in a degrading position in the estimation of the nations of the world. The unlawful withholding of the ballot from colored Americans in many parts of the country has led to the same denial of the right of suffrage to thousands of white Americans. The old adage "Don't cut off your nose to spite your face" is forcefully illustrated in this instance.
