Achievement Will Rise Superior to Prejudice Finally
Fort Russell and Cheyenne Happenings
Twenty-Third Year Fort Rus and Ch Ha
FORT RUSSELL, WYO.
In the baseball game between the Ninth Cavalry and the Sunrise Miners, Sunday afternoon, the horsemen showed that they were superior to the Miners in every inning. The veteran, White, who was on theiring line for the horsesmen, was in rare form, letting the fast Sunrise sluggers down with four hits, one base on balls and striking out sixteen of them, while the Ninth horsemen got 21 hits and a total of 34 bases, resulting in a score of 18 to 3 in favor of the warriors. Dunlap put up a great game at center as "sub" for the veteran McClare. McClare got two hits out of four times at bat. Tinsley has been given his release. Aid man Reed has replaced the truck horse Wilson on first. Old man Reed electrified the fans by poling out a double with two men on bases. McClare is playing a fair game at short as
Telgles is picking with the chickens in Cheyenne. Our standby, Hurt, made one miscue in this game. Bailey Caldwell has come into his own again, and is poling out singles and doubles as of yore. This game made the Ninth split even again with the Sunrise, as the horses lost to the miners Saturday.
Pitcher Dunlap deserved to win his game Saturday, but bone-head plays and rotten base running lost it.
Wilson won fame in the cup series.
Little more team work, Captain Jeff, and less bone-head base running. Everytime Tug missed a ball at first the fans sent up a howl for Captain Jeff, but old Captain Jeff was having troubles of his own at third. He slapped and booted and kicked and finally wound up with a throw to Frontier park, Saturday, but he came back strong Sunday, getting everything in sight.
Old Captain Butler has found his batting eye—once a man and twice a boy.
About 1500 fans were out Sunday to see the horsemen split even with the Sunrise Miners.
Well, we have silenced the Eleventh Fot and the Fourth Mule, so we can have some peace as far as baseball goes.

Wednesday evening Professor Hammond gave a band concert and lecture in the barnracks of Troop D. The concert and lecture both were very highly enjoyed. The lecture was on music and bands as gained by the professor's experience in his recent travels through Europe.
What is the matter with some of our old bandmen that they are getting so discontented lately? Are they sore because the three Filipinos were taken back into the band? Of course, it is known that nearly all musicians are cranky among themselves, but they manage to stick together somehow. Not so in our band. The writer has heard about fifteen bandmen say that they are either going to quit the band or quit the army. There is no use in doing this. Stay with us, and let our band preserve its good name
CHEYENNE, WYO
Everybody here is busy getting ready for the conference. The residence at which each minister will stay during the conference week has already been selected. It is being arranged so that each clergyman will enjoy himself just as if he were at home. There are only a few colored people in this city as compared with the number in other towns of the same size, but those who are here believe that their number is large enough to cope with any situation that may develop during the conference so far as looking out and taking care of strangers is concerned.
As evidence that all Cheyenne people are busy preparing for conference, listen to Uncle Joe Perkins' tale. Said Uncle Joe:
"The other night I went by Mally's house and stopped awhile. The first thing I noticed on entering was that all trunks had been emptied. What does all this mean, Mally,' I asked. 'What are you doing? Where did you get all those pretty dresses? I have never seen them before—this one I know,' pointing to a purple ne.
"Oh,' said Aunt Mally, 'I have had them a long time, but I have never had any occasion to use them since the last revival. I am pressing them up now for conference. This purple one, I am going to put on the first day, as I have never worn it at all."

Mrs. Peterson spoke before the Negro League on Monday night at the hall on North Commercial street. The hall was filled to its utmost capacity. This noble woman was at her best and gave out many practical thoughts that were both inspiring and elevating. Mrs. Peterson again appeared before a graceful audience at the A. M. E. church on Tuesday night. This was indeed a time that will long live in the hearts and minds of both young and the aged. Mrs. Peterson is a truly devoted woman to the cause of temperance. She spoke at St. Paul Baptist church on Wednesday night, at which time the W. C. T. U. was organized with a full corps of officers, and the good work will be the means of our race in this part of the country becoming educated along the lines of the various evils that confront the race elsewhere. Mrs. Lenox, the district superintendent of Sunday school of the A. M. E. church, made a lasting impression upon the minds of the good people of Trinidad. She was, aside from her own official duty, a great help and guide to Mrs. Peterson. Never was there a time when any two women of any race were more joyfully received and more royally entertained than were these two ladies in Trinidad.
They both felt for their homes Thursday morning. They were the guests of Rev. and Mrs. J. H. Brown while in the city.
The concert at St. Paul Baptist church Thursday night was a rare treat. There was a large audience. The program was on the richest order. The refreshments were in keeping with the needs, as there were many hungry who had money to spend.

Major Cunningham's Work Appreciated
The colored people of Cudiz, O., were quick to recognize the efficient services of Major David Cunningham, member of the Ohio state constitutional convention in his contention to have the word "white" stricken from the new constitution, which will come up for adoption at the fall election this year. Major Cunningham is a believer in equal rights and justice for all citizens without regard to race, color or creed. His success in the convention is the success of all Americans who believe in justice and equality according to law. Hon. Harry C. Smith also serves much credit for the part which he has taken in co-operating with Major Cunningham in matters of legislation

CAMPBELL CHAPEL
To the stirring music of the Olympian Band and the untiring energy of Campbell's great church workers belongs the lion's share of the success of our mid-summer carnival. The band was at its best and its members showed themselves legitimate descendants of their noble sire, Jubal. The Stewardess, Church Aid and Willing Workers' board, under Sisters Hattie King, Mary Findley and Fannie Johnson, respectively, brought things to pass in the cafe, and the flower booth by Mrs. Pope, the candy kitchen by Mrs. Berry, the ice cream parlor by Miss Fitzhugh, the grab bag by Miss Oacre, the soda water fountain by Mrs. Caldwell, the lemonade well by Miss Tucker, the fish pond by Mrs. Rice were attractions that never failed to attract.
Only two Sabbaths remain before the pastor will take leave for the annual conference at Cheyenne, Wyo., and it is earnestly hoped that every loyal member of Campbell will pay his Dollar Money next Sunday, and thus help to maintain the honor of our great church.
On Friday evening, September 6, Campbell will present Rev. T. H. Wiseman in a high-class musical. Rev. Wiseman has recently hailed from Kansas City, Mo., where he served as assistant pastor of Allen Chapel and assisted in providing entertainment for the recent session of the A. M. E. General Conference, and is now pastor in charge at Boulder. He possesses considerable musical ability and he has sung with telling effect before a number of large audiences. He will be supported by some of the best local talent. The public is cordially invited. Admission, 10 cents.
The public is invited to hear Rev. J. B. Rice, who will fill Campbell's pulpit at the evening hour, Sunday.

Growth of the Locus Street Social Settlement. HOW IT REACHES THE MASSES
What the Homemakers' Club of Hampton Is Doing to Better the Condition of the Home and Community Life of the People-It Wields a Wide Influence.
Hampton, Va.-The Locus Street Social Settlement in this town was founded about twenty years ago by Mrs. Harris Barrett, a graduate of Hampton Institute in the class of 1884. The work, which began with a few girls of the immediate neighborhood, has reached out into every section of the community. There are clubs and classes for boys, girls, mothers and grandmothers. Sessions are held every afternoon and evening eight months in the year.
The Women's club, known as the homemakers' club of this organization, has several departments, all of which work for some phase of home improvement. Each woman works in the department in which she is most interested. All come together, however, at intervals to work out and discuss problems of equal interest to all. The child's welfare department has two divisions. In one talks are given to young mothers on the care and feeding of infants, treatment of colds, care of sick children, the dangers of soothing sirups and patent medicines. In the other talks are given on the care and management of children.

MRS. HARRIS BARRETT.
how to make the home attractive and how to keep girls and boys off the streets. Other departments are poultry, home garden, flower lovers, quilting and plain sewing. In the latter department simple garments are made for children and house aprons for busy housekeepers.
At the Hampton institute farmers' conference, 1912, this latter department took first prize for the most practical and convenient house aprons. Instructions are given in cooking, rug weaving and work among boys. A country fair is held annually under the management of the Homemakers' club.
When we hear one speak of social work one is apt to think only of the larger things with which it concerns itself, such as government, public health, reforming of criminals, etc., but in this organization valuable social work is done in the home and immediate neighborhood, and the methods and systems used are in reach of every man and woman who is interested in home improvement.
In the plain sewing department many simple garments are made for children out of old garments as well as new cloth. These are a great help to the children's welfare department in carrying out its plan of keeping the children in school. These garments are sold to parents for a small sum with the understanding that such parents see to it that their children are sent to school.
The work of the organization since its inception has proved the wisdom of its founder. It is supported for the most part by voluntary contributions and entertainments. Mrs. Harris Barrett, besides having the management of all of this work, is also president of the Virginia Federation of Colored Women's Clubs, which is doing a great good among the masses of people throughout the state.
She is also second recording secretary of the National Association of Colored Women's Clubs. A more diligent and painstaking woman would be hard to find in any organization. Hampton is proud of her, as it also is of hundreds of graduates scattered throughout the country, so that it may be justly said that notwithstanding the many industrial schools and institutes for higher learning for colored people Hampton institute is the mother of them all.

CANDIDATE FOR THE ASSEMBLY
Harlem (New York) District For James H. Anderson.
HAS FINE PUBLIC RECORD.
Mercantile and Financial Times Pays Splendid Tribute to Editor of the Amsterdam News—What His Election Would Mean to the Race In New York.
New York.—The following statement in a recent issue of the Mercantile and Financial Times, published in this city, concerning the political aspirations of James H. Anderson, founder and editor in chief of the Amsterdam News, is worthy of more than passing notice. The subject is worthy of the tribute, and the facts are not in any-wise overstated. The Times says:
"When James H. Anderson, the editor of the Amsterdam News, with offices at 17 West One Hundred and Thirty-fifth street, this city, announced the other day his candidacy for the
A. B.
JAMES H. ANDERSON.
assembly from the Thirty-fifth assembly district a considerable stir was caused in Harlem politics. Should Mr. Anderson be successful in his ambition—and it is hoped he will—it will be the first time that the colored population in New York will have a member of their own race in the legislative halls at Albany.
Mr. Anderson, who has been a resident of New York for the last twenty-nine years, has taken an active interest in all matters pertaining to the bettering of municipal conditions. He established the Amsterdam News on Dec. 4, 1909, and ever since this weekly publication, which is alive with the news of the day, has made a strong headway.
Mr. Anderson was for a time the assistant sexton in Henry Ward Beecher a church in Brooklyn, and that noted divine took a great interest in the young colored man who was a member of his congregation. During the twenty years that Anderson has been an active figure in public life he has taken a considerable interest in literary and debating societies. He has always worked for the improvement of human conditions, and this work he will continue in a greater degree should he be honored with the election to the assembly.
This aspirant for political honors stands squarely for equal protection for all and special privileges to none. He told a representative of this publication the other day that in case of nomination and election he will not only look after the rights and interests of his own people, but will fight for the welfare of the people in general.
It is no more than right that matters coming before legislative discussions in reference to the privileges of the colored people should be debated by a representative of their own class. Mr. Anderson realizes perhaps more than many others that there are many local matters relating to the colored population in this city that need immediate attention. With a stalwart representative in Albany the colored citizens here could rest assured that they would receive the fullest attention in the legislative body. The colored man needs more of a political and industrial recognition, and by placing one of their own race in the lawmaking body the colored voters would acquire more civic pride, to which they are entitled.
Mr. Anderson is a man of broad ideas, and it would be difficult to find a more level beaded man from the Thirty-fifth assembly district than this aspirant for the position of assemblyman.
This district can boast of over 6,000 colored votes, which would be more than necessary for the election of Mr. Anderson, who is a Republican candidate. It is to be expected that both Republicans and Democrats will rally to his support, and in doing so they would display good judgment.

Howard Confers Divinity Degree Upon G. F. Miller.
MADE HIS MARK AS SCHOLAR
Some Facts In the Busy Life of Rector George Frazier Miller of St. Augustine P. E. Church in Brooklyn—His Career as Student, Voluminous Writer and Author Briefly Told.
By Mrs. M. C. LAWTON.
Brooklyn.—Rector George Frazier Miller of St. Augustine P. E. church, in this city, is a native of Alken, S. C., where he was born about forty-eight years ago. His parents were Alfred A. and Ellen Collins De Reef Miller. His grandfather on the maternal side was Richard Edward De Reef, a prominent merchant of Charleston, S. C.
The elder De Reef's parents were natives of Santo Domingo. They emigrated to the United States during one of the insurrections on the island many years ago. Mr. Miller's preliminary education was acquired in the public and private schools of Charleston. His father died when young Miller was only six years of age. His mother was a woman of great ambition and self reliance. With the assistance of her father-in-law, a man

of considerable means, she was able to continue her son in school. After completing the normal school course Mr. Miller matriculated for college, entering Howard university in the fall of 1881. By due diligence in his studies he was graduated with the degree of bachelor of arts in 1888.
In the fall of the same year he entered the General Theological seminary in New York, being graduated from this institution in the class of 1891. The degree of master of arts was conferred upon him in cursu in 1893, the thesis of the time being a philosophical discourse upon the subject "The Value of the Moral Argument of Thelsm."
In 1901 Mr. Miller entered the Graduate School of Philosophy of the University of New York, taking a post graduate course and devoting especial attention to the philosophy of religion, logical science and metaphysics.
While pursuing these studies he wrote a syllabus of logic (unpublished) which was approved in toto by Professor James E. Lough, Ph. D., of the department of logic and psychology. He published a work entitled "Adventism Answered," a philosophical discussion which treats on biblical and ethical grounds of Christian liberty in the observance of days and makes answer to the ancient Sabbath claim or duty of Saturday observance.
He has written numerous tracts and essays, and his recent pamphlet, "Socialism and Its Ethical Basis," written as a concise statement for the Hannibal forum of Brooklyn, has called forth words of high commendation from men of state in different parts of the country, many of whom hold the economic principles of other schools of thought.
The professors and other authorities at Howard university had watched Mr. Miller's career for twenty-four years. They hold him in high esteem as an alumnus who had honored his alma mater, so they felt that the time had come for the university to honor him, with the result that at the commencement Bishop Thirkield, the retiring president, invested him with the dignity, honor and title of doctor of divinity.
Encampment of the Order of Moses. The various tabernacles of the Grand United Order of Moses in Brooklyn will soon begin preparations for entertaining the delegates and visitors to the grand annual encampment of the order, scheduled to meet in Brooklyn, Tuesday, Oct. 15.
Erects New Baptist Church Edifice. The newly finished Baptist church edifice in Chilekasha, Okla., erected at a cost of $50,000. reflects credit upon the entire denomination in the state. It is pastored by the Rev. George W. Sherman.

WORK OF A GREAT SOCIAL ORDER
Ancient Knights and Daughters of Africa Meet In St. Louis.
NOTABLE POLITICAL TRIBUTE
Colored Congressional Candidate In a Missouri District Strongly Supported by His Own Race—Chance For Negro Workmen to Advance Offered by a Street Railway Company.
St. Louis.-The Ancient Knights and Daughters of Africa, an organization which is strong among our people in the middle west, of which William Herbert Fields is the grand master, held its grand session recently, with the annual sermon delivered by Dr. W. Sampson Brooks, at St. Paul's chapel.
The feature of the occasion was the address of welcome by Judge Hugo Muench of the circuit court, who told the 2,000 persons present that with faith in themselves, co-operative effort in business and the trades, coupled with the unexamplied triumphs of the race in the acquisition of property and education, which the future would see grow and augment, no force of circumstance, no bigotry or prejudice could withstand their onward march to the heights of progress.
Young men and women largely make up this order, and the clarton voice of the judge, white haired and venerable, rich in wisdom and experience, was a trumpet call to duty and achievement.
Fairness of United Railways Company.
The United Railways company, the monster corporation which controls the street railway system of the city, opened the door of opportunity to the colored laborers by offering employment to all who wanted to work at a daily wage of $1.75.
The men will be given transportation to and from labor, with chance for advancement to those who proved most efficient. These rifts in the clouds evidence that the sun of favor still shines.
Happenings In Political Circles.
The failure of Dr. Charles Henry Phillips to secure the nomination to congress from the Twelfth congressional district is what might be termed a fruitful failure - fruitful in that it demonstrated the fact that 2,000 colored men could support a member of the race who sought political preferment through the medium of their support. True, hundreds could not see their duty clear and therefore voted for the successful white man, but it was a notable thing that the young manhood of the race stood to their guns, polling a vote for Phillips that has won the respect of the politicians as never before.
OHIOAN FIRST CONTRIBUTOR.
Secretary of Freemen's Aid Society Receives Encouraging Letter.
The first contribution received by Dr. J. Garland Penn for the work of the Freedmen's Aid society since he became secretary was from a woman in Ohio. The donor expressed the belief that under Dr. Penn's administration the work of the organization would enter upon a new era of prosperity.
Certainly the educational institutions under the fostering care of this grand old abolitionist the society should take on new life and vigor by reason of the great good which has come to the race from this source in the past.
There are twenty-three schools in the south looking to the Freedmen's society for financial support and administrative guidance. They are located in important centers where the masses of our people live. The young men and women of the race should flock to these schools for instruction where they may obtain a good education which will fit them for safe and sane leadership.
NEW BUSINESS CONCERN.

In the government service in order to devote his entire time to his own business.
The need of such an enterprise among our people in St. Louis has been long felt. Mr. Pittman is a man of large experience and will no doubt succeed in his new line of work.
As an employee of the revenue department of the federal service for many years Mr. Pittman made a splendid record. There is room for scores of men of his type to engage in business in all sections of the country. The movement indicates thrift and self reliance and will do much to encourage other members of the race to launch on for themselves.
THE COLORED GYPSY SMITH.
Dr. S. P. W. Drew, Who Conducted One of Washington's Greatest Revivals.
Washington.—No spectacle in human history is more dramatic than that of a man who stands single handed and alone against a machine or combination. Hannibal, the Carthaginian general, by the sheer force of its transcendent genius crushed and annihilated one Roman army after another and almost humbled the pride and broke the strength of Rome, the one imperial city in the annals of history. Demosthenes by his tongue alone for seventeen years held at bay one of the greatest generals Greece ever produced. Napoleon Bonaparte, a foreigner and a soldier of fortune, at the head of the army of France changed the map of Europe, made and unmade kings and for years successfully defied the combined strength of Europe and only met his Waterloo through the failure of one of his generals to appear at the crucial moment.
In our own day we have the spectacle of Foraker, single handed and alone in the face of a hostile administration and an indifferent senate and country, winning a great victory for the discharged colored soldiers. These thoughts occurred to the writer recently as he sat in the pulpit of the great Cosmopolitan Temple Baptist church in Washington. Packed from the altar to the door, it reflected that it was the personality of Dr. S. P. W. Drew, the colored Gypsy Smith, which drew the crowd together.
Dr. Drew came to this city about eight years ago, a stranger in this city, and conducted one of the greatest revivals ever known in Washington, where over 670 persons gave their names to join the church in four weeks time, and the good people gave in return to Dr. Drew as a free will offering $650. Since then he has organized and now pastors one of the largest and most influential congregations in the

city, where senators, representatives and other distinguished citizens have spoken.
Among those who have aided Dr. Drew's work might be mentioned the following: Representative William B. McKinley of Illinois, chairman of Taft national bureau; Senator W. Murray Crane of Massachusetts, Senator Henry C. Lodge of Massachusetts, Senator Weldon B. Heyburn of Idaho, Senator Charles Curtis of Kansas, Representative Samuel W. McCall of Massachusetts, Representative Frank B. Willis, Representative Edward L. Taylor, General Joseph W. Kiefer of Ohio, Senator Moses E. Clapp of St. Paul, Minn.; former Senator John B. Henderson, author of the Thirteenth amendment to the constitution; Mrs. John Hay, wife of former Secretary Hay; Hon. E. H. Warner and others.

The dining room was converted into a lake (Palmer Lake) and delicious refreshments were served on the train.

The "chic" event of the season was the Miscellaneous Linen Shower tendered Miss Senora Finley, Saturday, by Mrs. Jonathan Richard Contee, at her beautiful home in Franklin street. The interior was decorated suggestive of bride's elect—from each chandelier a white dove was suspended holding in his mouth a spray of orange blossoms; from each corner of the rooms leading to the doves curd's reins of white ribbon, hearts all sizes, even one that cupid's dart had pierced adorned the hall and living room. In the dining room the letters "F" and "L" was a becoming background, with cut flowers everywhere in abundance.
The amusement prepared for the entertainment of the guest was a musical romance which brought forth much merriment. When the wedding march was played, little Miss Bonita Scott entered the parlor, a miniature bride, with a train orange blossom veil, etc., with all the dignity of a grown-up. She passed the gifts, which thirty-five friends of the bride-to-be had brought in response to the hostess' kind invitation. Then each person showered Miss Finley, with rose leaves, blessings, and good wishes for her future happiness.
Visiting ladies present were: Mrs. John Sanders of Los Angeles, Calif.; the Misses Wooding and Russell, Wash., D. C.; Miss Anna Logan of Omaha, Neb.; Mrs. Julia Reed of Colorado Springs.

I want to give you a short history of my condition so that others who have the same trouble I had may know there is a cure for rheumatism. In July, 1909, I noticed that I had inflammatory rheumatism. In health I had weighed 152 pounds; I dropped to 120 pounds. After being confined to the bed for two and a half months a friend recommended Bates' Twentieth Century Wonder Powder. In the summer of 1910 I began to take it. At this time, April, 1911, I have been well and robust for five months. My appetite is good and my weight is 140 pounds and not a trace of the old trouble remains. I have taken six bottles of the Twentieth Century Wonder Powder. If you want to refer anyone to me I will gladly express the merits of this medicine.
Yours truly,
A. J. LYLES,

Gentlemen: I received your check for $1.00, much to my surprise. While the amount is very small, it means much more than its value in the satisfaction of dealing with a company that aims to satisfy. Sec. 10 of your policy appeals to me, where the injury requires medical attention and is not serious enough to cause loss of time.
Very respectfully,

CONSUMPTION
I was a lunger, suffering for a long time. A benefited friend endorsed Bates' Twentieth Century Wonder Tea. I took several packages of the tea and have not been troubled with my lungs since. That was several years ago, not being troubled with colds as I was theretofore. I most gladly recommend the Twentieth Century Wonder Tea to all lung sufferers.

"I regard the Tuskegee Institute as the most considerable educational invention of modern times," writes Professor W. L. Thomas, professor of sociology in the University of Chicago.
Industry is the spirit of Tuskegee —industry and discipline are made a habit. The choice of some 40 trades are offered young men and young women. Tuskegee graduates are earning from $50 to $80 and $100 per month as academic teachers, farm managers, steam and electrical engineers, tailors, teachers of domestic science, nurses—in fact, the demand for men and women trained in all the trades at Tuskegee is far beyond the supply.
The academic work is vital and real; it is close to realities. The school seeks soundness and efficiency; the academic and industrial work are closely correlated.
The spiritual work of the school is strong. It ranks fifth in the United States in number of students studying the Bible. It is guided by a Chaplain and a Secretary of the Y. M. C. A., and through a Bible Training School.
Morning drills for boys; special gymnastic training for girls; swimming pools for boys and girls; attractive grounds; more than 100 buildings—large, comfortable, airy, electric lighted; 186 teachers.

THE STATESMAN—6
FORMER HOWARD STUDENT NOW MEMBER OF FACULTY.
Among the young college men of the race making good in life is C. C. Robertson, one of the instructors in mathematics at Howard university.
Mr. Robertson is a promising young man and is amply prepared to take a high place in the educational ranks of the race.
He was born in Hampton, Va., near the great industrial school in that town. He received his early education at the Spiller academy and Wayland seminary of the Virginia Union university in Richmond, Va. After his preparation for college he entered the Virginia Union university, from which he was graduated in 1910.
He was among the leaders of his class and was prominent in college activities, especially as a Young Men's Christian association worker. In further preparation for his life's work he entered Howard university, doing work in the Teachers' college.
He did special work in mathematics and German and received his degree of Pd. B., 1911. His work in mathematics at the university attracted the attention of the authorities, and on the completion of his course he was offered the post of instructor in mathematics. Mr. Robertson is among the youngest members of the faculty. He believes in thorough preparation. He has matriculated for the master's degree at Columbia university in New York.
Concord Literary Reopens Sept. 12. The Concord Literary circle, in Brooklyn, will reopen for the fall and winter season on Thursday, Sept. 12. President Walter K.

A business session will be held at Odd Fellows' hall the morning of the second day, and in the afternoon a big street parade will take place, followed by a prize drill at the baseball grounds. Four prizes will be awarded, and a big banquet will take place at night.

The numerical and financial status of the National Association of Women's Clubs, as reported at its recent biennial convention at Hampton, Va., is as follows: Number of clubs, 800; total membership, 10.908; money collected since last biennial meeting, $82.424.66. The cost of property owned by the various clubs is estimated at $61,845.15. The present valuation of properties owned and controlled by the organization is placed at $113.332.25. Wilberforce, O., was selected for the next biennial meeting.
Socialist Party Nominates Russell. The Afro-American members of the Socialist party in Greater New York seemed to be much pleased with the nomination of Charles Edward Russell for governor. Mr. Russell contributes special articles to the Crisis Magazine and is also one of the founders of the National Association For the Advancement of Colored People.
Rounding Out Fifty Years of Freedom. Judging from the many evidences of thrift and intelligence among Afro-Americans, in all fairness one must conclude that the race is on the up grade. It is rounding out its fifty years of freedom with cheering signs of its ability to conquer the difficulties of the past and the harder problems of the future.

THE "PORO" SYSTEM of Scalp and Hair treatment is based on the latest scientific and sanitary methods, effecting a healthy scalp thus promoting a growth of beautiful hair.
The "Poro" preparations used in connection with the treatment are made and sold exclusively by myself, having the exclusive right to that name; and I, alone, know the secret of the composition that bears that name. Our claim has always been that when the hair begins to grow as the result of the use of "PORO," it will continue to do so if only the scalp and hair be kept clean. This sanitary method of treatment is also having the desired effect in helping to prevent the spread of diseases, for it is a fact that hair in an unsanitary condition carries the germs of disease which often prove fatal to innocent persons coming in contact with them.

THE STATESMAN—8
OFFICIAL RANK IN WASHINGTON
Afro-Americans In Federal Service Prove Their Worth.
FAITHFUL IN EVERY DETAIL
Group of Business and Professional Men of Known Ability Who Are Acceptably Filling High Positions of Trust—Duty to Government First. Taft's Ipse Dixit.
Washington.—There are more colored federal officeholders now assembled at Washington in representative positions than ever before. The representation under the present national administration is the equal both in quantity and quality of any so far enjoyed by the race. The type of men now in office ranks among the highest ever called to serve the government.
These men, too, represent various callings. For instance, Judge Terrell of the municipal court, William H. Lewis, assistant attorney general; J. A. Cobb, assistant district attorney, and Henry Lincoln Johnson, recorder of deeds, are lawyers, J. C. Napier, register of the treasury, is a banker; Ralph W. Tyler, auditor for the navy, and Cyrus Field Adams, assistant register of the treasury, are newspaper men, the former for many years on the staff of an Ohio white daily and the latter an editor of a newspaper published in Chicago.
Whitfield McKinlay, collector of customs, is a real estate broker, who operated on a large scale. While political advantage is usually the aim in making appointments to office, these men were selected for the positions they occupy because of fine reputations as citizens, professional and business men established before being called to fill presidential offices.
Men of Splendid Executive Ability.
None of these officeholders are mere officeholders as the term to many persons in like positions applies, but are rather public servants who know and administer the duties of their offices as
C
acceptably as any of the best white officials. By so doing they have not only reflected great credit upon themselves as individuals, but they have earned for the race highest respect and greater confidence in the ability of colored men from their superiors in office and the public that has to transact business with it.
President Taft himself has indicated in his federal appointments that the primary aim of a public official must be to acceptably serve the government. And he has also indicated both in speech and acts that duty to the government comes before duty to party. It is not infrequent that we hear complaints from colored men out in the states that this or that officeholder is not a good representative simply because he has not secured a number of minor appointments, such as clerkships, messengerships and laborers' jobs for his colored constituents.
The fact is that the civil service has so completely blanketed all such positions or jobs that even a United States senator or a cabinet officer cannot secure such places, much less colored federal officials. There is but one way now, and only one, to secure a position of clerk, messenger or laborer, and that is by taking and passing the civil service examination and then waiting your turn for certification when vacancies occur. Colored officeholders who fill their positions with signal ability are doing the race far greater service than their predecessors under the old spoils system.
Diligent Force of Public Officials.
Strict attention to the duties of their office characterizes every man holding a federal position in Washington. There is J. C. Napier, register of the treasury, who seldom leaves his desk except for the most urgent demands by the public for his services in matters of importance.
Judge Terrell of the municipal court is regarded by white and colored lawyers as one of the ablest, fairest and most punctual judges on the bench. Cyrus Field Adams gives such close attention to his duties that he is rarely ever seen outside of his office. Wil-
TUSKEGEE'S GREAT FARM.
Variety of Food Products Raised at the Alabama Institute.
The industries at the Tuskegee (Ala.) institute are grouped into three departments, the school of agriculture, the industries for girls and the department of mechanical industries. The courses in agriculture are given in Milbank hall, a modern building erected in 1909 at a cost of $26,000. Farming was the first industry started at the institute, and the school farm in thirty years has grown until it embraces 2,300 acres. Of this eighty acres form a truck garden on which is raised produce for the school, eighty acres constitute an or chard, 840 acres form the tract for general farming, while 1,300 acres comprise an area given over to pastures and woodland.
The dairy herd contains 227 head of cattle, breeders, yearlings and calves with 105 milk cows "at the pail." The farm also has 562 hogs and 145 horses mules and colts, while the poutry yard contains 3,000 fowls. The farm work is carried on by 228 students, forty bred men and eighteen instructors.
Last year 632 tons of ensilage, 12,000 bushels of sweet potatoes, 3,500 bushels of corn and 3,050 bushels of oats were grown on the general farm, while the truck garden yielded 115,453 pounds of greens, 1,116 dozen bunches of lettuce, 465 bushels of onions, 3,570 watermelons, 358 bushels of beans, 35 bushels of beets, 783 bushels of tomatoes, 321 bushels of rutabagas, 3,150 dozen ears of green corn, 2,004 melons and cantaloupes, 57 bushels of white potatoes and 258 bushels of peas, this enumeration being given as an indication of the variety of the table at Tuskegee and the manner in which the pupils are being saturated in one of the many ideas of Tuskegee that one indication of civilization is a variety of food products.
"One of God's objects in surrounding us with vegetables, with grain, berries and flowers," says Booker Washington, "is to help us to make our bodies better fitted for the uses of life, to make our bodies stronger, to make them more healthful. When I go to church and hear people preach for hours on all kinds of subjects, especially in country districts, where the soil is fitted for growing all kinds of vegetables, all kinds of fowl, how much I wish the minister would take a few hours and teach the people how to fill their bodies with some of the beautiful things with which nature has surrounded them."
National Educational Association.
The National Educational association will hold its next annual meeting at the Temperature Industrial and Collegiate institute in Churemont, Va., in 1913. President John J. Smallwood of the above named institution is vice president of the national organization.

There is only one really safe, harmless, sure relief for suffering, and that ONE relief is SANATITE. Ever hear of SANATITE? Then lienttent SANATITE is different, foot reliefs—it's in a dry form, in a powder puff. Simply dust it on the feet morning and the bed, happy and bright for you. Bear this in mind: There's no fussing or mussing with water and foot bathing with SANATITE. It's an instant's work—JUST DUST it.
SANATITE—through its wondrous antiseptic healing qualities—takes the sting out of sore, tired, burning, blistered, aching feet—with feet worked. And, Reader, it never hurms them—their sanitary and ANTISEPTIO. If your feet perspire, dust them with SANATITE—it deodorizes—refreshes—but OES does stop perspiration. It gives the pleasing sensation applied elsewhere on the body, and is used constantly by refined men and women.
SANATITE is the greatest healer and pain destroyer. You won't win the recommendation of physicians and nurses—it will do likewise with YOU. Always remember this. Reader: If your feet suffer, the REST of your body suffers. Neglected sore feet cause bodily injuries that may ruin your health for life.
Now go to your DRUGGIST and get a 250
package of SANITATE, and dust it on
the floor.
