A majority of the Supreme Court, Nov. 30, joined in an opinion that the Oklahoma 'Jim Crow,' law proviso permitting railroads to furnish sleeping, dining, and chair car accommodations only to the white race was unconstitutional, but they did not so decree because of imprefections in the petition on which the case reached the courts. The case was one in which five Afro-Americans, claiming that the entire law was unconstitutional, sought an injunction to restrain five railroads in Oklahoma from enforcing it. The Oklahoma Federal courts dismissed the petition, holding the law constitutional. The majority of the court affirmed the dismissal because the Afro-Americans had not shown they had applied to the railroads for accommodation under the law, or that the railroads had notified them that they would be refused certain accommodations. The majority of the court, through Justice Hughes, stated, however, that they could not agree with the lower court that the proviso as to sleeping, dining, and chair cars was constitutional. A minority, consisting of Chief Justice White and Justices Holmes, Lamar and McReynolds, concurred merely in the order of affirmance, but expressed no views on the constitutional question. In the opinion of the majority, Justice Hughes stated previous decisions that laws for separate coaches for the two races was constitutional were not to be questioned. He then set forth the reasons for the opinion that the lower court was wrong in holding the proviso constitutional. The reasoning is "that there may not be enough persons of African descent seeking these accommodations to warrant the outlay in providing them." This argument with respect to the value of the traffic seems to be without merit. It makes the constitutional right depend upon the number of persons who may be discriminated against, whereas the essence of the constitutional right is that it is a personal one. The Justice then pointed out that defects in the petition presented an insuperable obstacle to the granting of the injunction. The court gave no intimation as to whether in a proper case it would merely hold the "luxury" car section unconstitutional, or whether it would decide that this section being unconstitutional, the entire law must fall. The five railroads in the case asked the court, when the case decided was argued to hold the entire law unconstitutional if the "luxury" proviso was annulled. Washington (D. C.) Sun. When will our people, es- The Denver Star ESTABLISHED 1888 pecially our lawyers learn the necessity of going into the U. S. Supreme court, in such cases, with legal representatives of U. S. Supreme court caliber? Case after case of vital importance to the race because they affect our citizen rights, have been lost in that court as a direct result of the failure to do this very thing. It is high time to stop permitting our personl, professional or race pride to result in the loss of such very important cases. When in this city, this week, Dr. Du Bois of the N. A. A. C. P., told the writer that Boston's great lawyer, Mr. Moorfield Story, called Attorney William Harrison's attention to the weakness in his petition on which the U. S. Supreme court based its refusal to grant the injunction asked and thus pass favorably upon the unconstitutionality of the Oklahoma "Jim-Crow" car law. But a small "crumb of comfort and satisfaction" can be extracted from this case.—Cleveland Gazette. Mme. E. Azalia Hackley, the Nation's Charming Singer and Musical Educator.

Hilliard, who will address the People's Sunday Alliance, Emancipation Day, June 1st at the People's Presbyterian church. Let everyone come out and hear what we may expect of our newly elected Congressman. DENVER, COLORADO, SATURDAY, JAN. 2, 1915 Balancing The Ledger. Watchman What of the Night. "Fifty years is not a long span of time measured by the history of the world, but all the more for that reason does the phenomenal success of the Negro in the United States give us the right to form another and this time a wholly favorable expectency." "Since the Emancipation Proclamation, January 1, 1861, the Negro has proved to the world what he can do by doing. Whereas 70 per cent of your race were illiterate, now 70 per cent are literate, far surpassing the countries of Russia, Portugal and Southeastern Europe. You have accumulated property to a total of $700,000,000, $5,000,000 of it being in rural property. Nearly a fourth of the Negro farmers of the South own their farms. During this last census period, the percentage of farm ownership increased 17 per cent for Negroes against 12 per cent for Whites. The Negro has accomplished much, and much of his work has been steadily uphill. The largest and most important part of the Negro's tasks are ahead of him. The mass of our race must be fitted for the practical pursuits which are before them. This year more so than last, more education into the sanitary and hygienic living should be given our people, so that prevalent diseases which are sapping our strength might be checked. This year we must instill into our race more respect for contractual and moral obligations, now woefully lacking. We must persuade our people the exact and intrinsic worth of humble beginnings, in which too many of our people are now negligent. We must be more active and alert in discouraging and scourging vice and dissipation from our ranks this year. This year has demonstrated that the young blood of the Negro race is fastly coming forward and asserting its manhood. He is refusing to bow, scrape, apologize and beg his way through life, but has begun a determined, systematic course of firmly and impressively demanding exact justice and consideration and contending for his own until he receives his just due. Color and race segregation have awakened his race consciousness, for he has learned of the uujst operation and the arrogancy exhibited in the baneful ultimate effects upon the humil ated class or race. Color and race prejudice is each an iniquity in itself. It has shown itself to be destitute of all reason and human consideration and in its operation this year among Negro men, women and even little children. It has actually refused to countence fair play, human tenderness, and filial love as an appeal from its unreasoning and vicious tendencies. Let us speak with the june Crisis of 1912, when it says for a New Year's resolution: "I am Resolved." in this New Year to play the man to stand straight, look the world squarely in the eye, and walk to my work with no shuffle or slink. "I am, Resolved" to be satisfied with no treatment which ignores my manhood and my right be counted as one among men. "I am Resolved" to be quiet and law-abiding, but to refuse to cringe in body or in soul, to resent deliberate insult and to assert my just rights in the face of wanton aggression. "I am Resolved" to defend and assert the absolute equality of the Negro race with any and all other human races and its divine right to equal and just treatment. "I am Resolved" to be ready at all times and in all places to bear witness with per, voice, money and deed against the horrible crime of lynching, the shame of the "Jim Crow" legislation, the injustice of all color discrimination., the wrong of disfranchisement for race or sex the iniquity of war under any circumstances and the deep damnation of present methods, of distributing the world's work and wealth. "I am Resolved" to defend the poor and the weak of every race and hue, and to especially guard my wife, my mother, my daughter and all my darker sisters from the insults and aggressions of white men and black, with the last strength of my body and the last suffering of my soul. For all these things, "I am Resolved" unflinchingly to stand, and if this resolve cost pain, poverty, slander and even life itself, I will remember the words of the Prophet when he sang: "Though Love repine and Reason chafe, there came a Voice, without reply, it is man's Perdition to be safe when for the Truth he ought to die!" Strong Man Saves Woman as Auto Stalls on Track. Brnnswick, Ga., Dec. 27 William Houston, a colored man, saved the lives of four Brunswick women when, seeing the peril of the 'mobile party he rushed up to the machine and shoved it across the railroad track just as a fast moving freight train went past. In crossing the railroad track the machine was slowed down, and just as it mounted the rails the engine went dead. The freight train was only a hundred yards distant. Honston, who was standing by, rushed to the car, gave it one hard push and it crossed the track by only a few feet as the train went by. Du Bois Speaks in Behalf of Woman Suffrage. The S. R. O. sign hung out yesterday afternoon at the Tremont Theatre where the suffragists held a big mass meeting, with Dr. W. E. B. DR. W. E. B. Du Bois. Who pleased a large audience at a Boston theatre. Du Bois, director of publicity and research of the National Association for the Advancement of the Colored People, as the principal speaker. Miss Maud Wood Park introduced Dr. Du Bois as "a leader of a race that has tasted—and still tastes—the injustice of race discrimination." Dr. Du Bois said in part: 'When opposers of suffrage say that women suffrage brings in an ignorant vote the answer properly is: 'Then why shut out any intelligent woman?' In a question of property, it is fairly answered that many women hold property. If a question of fitness that women today perform much work of far greater roughness and do men's work. If a question of color, that white women should not be deprived of the vote. "Here in New England, they used to—and I fear they do now, sometimes—tell the workingman what he ought to do—how he ought not get drunk on Saturday night, and how he ought to save and become a millionaire. But we know better today. After the shameful things that organized industry has been doing to the laboring man, we have come to the realization that we can't tell the workingman what to do. Two men have got to sit down—the employer and the employee—and talk things over. "Europe today is not fighting one race with another There are greater race animosities in each country itself than between for two. They are fighting any the spoils of the Colored race for the ivory, the diamonds, the grains, the gold, the jewels and the trade of the domains of the Colored peoples. "Many say that when this war is over, there won't be an other. When five dogs fight the Denver Star FIVE CENTS A COPY. for a bone, and they are all through, the bone is still there. They'e going to fight for it until somebody gets it. The only way to keep them from fighting for the bone is to put teeth on it. "This bone—the spoils of the Colored race—is still there, and until some means is devised to eliminate the 'dogs after a bone' situation, the wars will continue." Dr. Du Bois spoke of the natural sympathy which drew women and the Colored people—still disenfranchised—together in a fight for the rights of Americans, without respect to sex or color or creed. A large sum of money was collected by the Colored girl ushers.—Boston Post. True Love Knows no Race Line, Southerner Remembers Common Law Wife. Memphis, Tenn., Dec. 25—CoI. A. H. Jennings, of Pearl, Shelby County, wills his entire estate, estimated at $80,000, to Mr. Bettie Hicks and her seven children. He had no white men for his associates. He was well known, but never made any attempt to seek the association of those of his own race. Nearly fifty years ago he came here from Tippah County, Miss., bringing his brothers and sisters. His brothers and sisters married and moved away. He remained with his mother. Fortune prospered them. The farm was extended and a nice home built. Mrs. Jennings died. After his mother died he left his home and went to a small cabin in a far corner of the farm. Mrs. Bettie Hicks was there. He acknowledged in his will that he was the father of her children. For more than 20 years he lived in that cabin. Jennings was never on good terms with the remainder of his family, but about two years ago, it is said, when his brother, D.C. Jennings, was in trouble with the courts in what Judge J. P. Young described as one of the worst cases that had ever been tried before him, he came forward with a check for $10,-ooo scribbled on a piece of old bag, to help his brother save his land from being sold to satisfy a court judgement.

Beginning with the Christmas Tree Thursday evening right straight through the Watch night service, the exercises were skillfully rendered and greatly enjoyed by the big audiences which flocked out to witness them. Perhaps the most talked-about service was the early Xmas morning program when the choir thrilled its audience through and through with the latest Christmas music. So sweetly were strains of music sent forth through the stillness of morning that persons passing the streets were captivated and drawn contrary to their plan, into the auditorium. From all sides comes a word of praise for our choir. Our service Sunday was also a splendid one, the offering ran up to $60.00. Our pastor desires to thank most heartily, the members of his congregation for remembering him and Mrs. Pope so generously during the Xmas season. CENTRAL BAPTIST CHURCH.

E. church, in this city, so designated because it is the oldest church of that denomination in the connection, began in its new house of worship on West One Hundred and Thirty-sixth street Sunday. Dec. 20, and will continue until Sunday, Jan. 3. Mother Zion church was founded in 1796. The first church was built on the corner of Church and Leonard streets in 1800 and rebuilt in 1820. The first annual conference was organized in 1821. In 1830 the church was destroyed by fire and was rebuilt in 1840. The Sabbath school was organized in 1845. In 1850 the membership had so completely outgrown its quarters that the congregation moved its home to the corner of Bleecker and Tenth streets. Here it prospered until the business interests in the downtown section made another change necessary. As rents downtown were so exorbitant it soon became evident that the congregation must move uptown, which it did in 1904, at which time it built a magnificent structure at a cost of $90,000. When our people began to settle so thickly in the section known as Harlem the church soon discovered that if it would hold what it had gained, if it would keep in touch with its large membership, another change in its location would be necessary; hence the congregation set out to find a suitable site nearer the majority of its membership. To the present pastor, the Rev. J. W. Brown, D. D., is due the credit for the completion of what at first seemed a complicated undertaking—moving to Harlem. The new church is a splendid stone structure with all modern improvements and is beautifully situated. FARMERS' ANNUAL MEETING. Features of Conference to Be Held at Tuskegee, Ala., Jan. 20. Tuskegee, Ala.—The annual Tuskegee Negro conference will be held at Tuskegee institute, in this town, beginning on Wednesday, Jan. 20. In addition to the meeting in the institute chapel an agricultural parade, to start from Millbank Agricultural building at 10 o'clock, will feature possibilities of agriculture as carried on by the Tuskegee institute, and the farm demonstration work of the national government. A series of contrasts will indicate the agriculture of the past with the present. A beginning in this direction was made last year, but the parade for 1915 promises to be more thoroughly instructive and will include many features not included in last year's parade. The conference program has been arranged with special reference to assisting the Negro farmers to get in a position so that they can best co-operate with the agencies which are working to improve farming and financial conditions in the south. The morning session of the conference will be held at 11 o'clock, in the chapel, and the subject decided upon for discussion is "How I Am Meeting the Present Hard Times." SAVE JONES' LIFE.

M. C. A. at 2800 Glenarm Place, the bringing together and sticking together the public and charitable organizations of the city and the perfecting and cementing into a closer fraternal union of the ministers of this city, as well as the establishment of a physician's conference composed wholly of the colored doctors who can and will discuss their difficult cases round some dinner festive board—all of these things Denver could accomplish this year. Will she take advantage of her opportunity and do it? Who will start the formation of the National Association for the advancement of Colored people in Denver? Who will make it their year's business to do only organization work among the kindred organizations. Let the Slogan be "Get Closer Together," and organize the organizations and next December will find more complete and positive harmony, real progress and happiness than words can foretell. The Kansas City Sun had this to say in a recent issue; Negro women need a great many things worse than they need the ballot. They need to be inspired with a deeper sense of domesticity and a more sacred regard for maternity. These are the virtues that make for sound citizenship and guarantee real happiness. Let others spend their time upon fads and folbles. We are yet in our infancy and should first solve the elementary problems about us. We need better home life, better trained children, better refined tastes, and a higher appreciation of such virtues as punctuality, economy and sincerity. The same argument is always made when injustice and impartiality want to gain or delay an advantage. This procrastination "Manana" (tomorrow) is the tyrant's argument. It is not a question whether a woman needs this, that or the other things, but does that right lawfully belong to her. Is it right then that she have it? If so, why not grant it? It is not for the Kansas City Sun or any other paper to arbitrarily fix a woman's needs any more than it is for the South to limit the Negro (or women, if you please) to industrial education. The same argument against higher education for women and Negroes was made so the Sun has not emitted any new light on "the right of woman's suffrage" especially where the Negro women are breadwinners. Who should fix and regulate their hours of work; who should regulate their sanitary and working conditions better than themselves? The Western man knows it is unjust to keep women out of their chance to better their conditions through politics and therefore has given them the right to protect and preserve themselves. We venture to say that there are as many women pay taxes in Missouri on realty holdings as do men. The Negro man is the last person, who even by his pen, should encourage the denial of anything of betterment to anybody. The Star hopes the Sun will see its mistake. PASSING OF A LAND-MARK. WAS A PIONEER IN DENVER. The passing of Mr. Charles Hall on the 9th of this month, whose remains were laid to rest in Fairmont Cemetery, Tuesday last, took from our midst one of our most widely and best known citizens and deprived us of one whose family, for twenty-five years, has been one of the potent factors for good in the life of our people in Denver. He was born in Franklin county, Missouri. Early in the seventies his parents moved to White Cloud, Kan., where he grew up, being one of fifteen children. The permanent value of Christian home influence was manifested early in his life, leading to his conversion to the Christian faith, when he joined the African Methodist Episcopal Church in the above named city. It was here he met Miss Unity White, who in 1883 became Mrs. Union Hall with whom he lived happily until the time of his death. About twenty-five years ago, he moved to Denver and united with Shorter Chapel Methodist Church, of which he has since been a faithful member, having served as Steward and Class Leader for twelve years and as janitor for fourteen years. Not only was he interested in the church, but he took a hand in things temporal as well. He believed that the preparation needed to live well hereafter was to live well here.Hence, shortly after coming to Denver, he began to purchase property and at the $2.00 1.00 .50 rate, all subscriptions must be paid ation.

Only 1-cent and 2-cent stamps to THE DEN-VER STAR. On must be newsy, upon important sub side of the paper. No manuscript re- age. At the postoffice in the city of Denver. time of his passing he was a representative tax payer of whom the race is proud. Mr. Hall was the father of two sons, both of whom were very popular in Denver. Mr. Chas. R. Hall of Chicago, Ill., and Mr. Lloyd Hall of Salt Lake City, Utah. Mrs. Unity Hall, who survives her husband, is widely known for her relief work in the city. Having been for a number of years, President of the Deaconess Board of Shorter Chapel; she has done a telling service in reaching the unreached and rescuing the fallen among our people. Her health having failed, some months ago, she was advised by her physician to go East to regain it. It was while she was thus away visiting relatives in Cincinnati, O., that Mr. Hall took down with pneumonia and ere she had reached his bedside he entered the land of the blessed. His closing hours were so peaceful and beautiful that scarcely will those scene. The funeral service, held Sunday the 13th, was beautiful, impressive and largely attended. In the eulogy, Rev. Robert L. Pope, his pastor, portrayed most vividly his splendid life and labors and paid him a high tribute for his greatness of soul and richness of character, stressing the fact that while he kept his feet firmly planted upon the earth, at the same time he kept his soul in heaven. "He stood but with his starry pin- Stripped for the flight and ready to be gone." With the pastor were associated, who were witnesses ever forget the Revs. D. E. Over of Zion Baptist Church; Jas. Washington of Campbell Chapel and A. E. Reynolds of Bethlehem Baptist Church. The choir was out in full and the music was consoling, reassuring and sweet. Mrs. Olive Elliott, a life-long friend of the family, also sang very tenderly. The officers and a number of the auxiliaries of the church made floral offerings and read suitable resolutions. Mr. Geo. C. King read for the Official Board; Mr. J. C. Porter, Usher's Club; Mrs. Frances A. Early, Women's Mte Missionary Society; Mrs. Mary E. Wade, Class No. 6; and Mrs. Lillie Lewis, Deaconess Board. Messrs. F. T. Bruce, Chas. A. Burton, H. F. Smith, Harry Jones, E. C. Snadon and Anthony Lowe served as pall bearers. Owing to the inability of his sons to reach the city earlier, the remains were deposited in a vault until Tuesday when interment was made at Fairmont Cemetery; the Douglass Undertakers being in charge. Thus ended the earthly career of one of Denver's most beautiful and useful characters. "WHY JESUS WAS A MAN AND NOT /. WOMAN." This book, which is just from the press, is the third book by Mr. Tapp, inw hich he interprets the Sex-Law of the Bible. His first book on the subject, "The Truth About the Bible" came from the press about two years ago. About a year after that, his second book, "Sexology Of The Bible" followed. In these books, Mr. Tapp contends that all sin of the Flesh is in the Sex-Senses and that is the reason that Jesus did not have a natural father. He is a lawyer and has done a great work for the inspiration of the Bible and the Divinity of the Christ. He has answered all the school of the Ingersol's, etc. He shows that the fall of man was a matter of the Flesh and the Sex and that the Christ had to be conceived without a natural father in order to be the perfect man and Redeemer of the world. His idea is, The Law of Sex is the Key of the Bible. The idea is arresting the attention of the great thinkers of the world. The books may be secured by addressing Sidney C. Tapp, Kansas City, Mo. They should be in every home and library of the world. The Denver Star is indebted to Mr. Monroe N. Work of Tuskogec, Ala., for the Negro Year Book for 1914-1915. It is an excellent annual encyclopedia of the Negro's doings. LA BEATRIX Corsets are the best and most popular priced corset, and for wear, style, comfort and perfect fit they have no equal.

KEEP IT HANDY FOR RHEUMA-TISM. No use to squirm and wince and try to wear out your rheumatism. It will wear you out instead. Apply some Sloan's Liniment. Need not rub it in—just let it penetrate all through the affected parts, relieve the soreness and draw the pain. You get ease at once and feel so much better you want to go right out and tell other sufferers about Sloan's. Get a bottle of Sloan's Liniment for 25 cents of any druggist and have it in the house—against colds, sore and swollen joints, lumbago, sciatica and like ailments. Your money back if not satisfied, but it does give almost instant relief. Buy a bottle today. Everybody who heard Shorter's 5 o'clock Xmas Song Service was profuse in their praises. It was a great credit to the choister and organist. Mrs. D. C. Caldwell of St. Louis, Mo., left last Saturday for DuQuoin, Ill., where she will bury one of her friends who died in Denver.

If you don't believe it, ask Jonas. Miss Golden Smith entertained Mrs. Celia Stewart at a "farewell" part Saturday night. Mrs. Stewart and son, Chas. Glenn, left for Indian- apolis, Sunday morning at 9:30 a. m.

Miss Eliza Miller recited "Mother Goose Stories;" Mrs. Willie Smith and her husband gave a "Midwinter after dinner Pose;" Mrs. Adah Smith sang "Mine 'till Full" and "I'm Wearying for a Glass;" Deacon Patrick collected all the insurance available because of the anticipated sickness from over eating.

Brown & Hughes, Coal Men UNIVERSITY OF WEST TENNESSEE Thy School In Mompis Exerts Wide Influence, LOCATED IN FINE SECTION tainments Are Well Known. Memphis, Tenn.—Among the educa- tional institutions of the country that are rendering valuable service in the development of the Negro race is the University of West Tennessee, located in this city, which has made a splendid record in the educational work of the race. This institution was founded by Dr. M. V. Lynk in 1900. The various de- partments include medicine, dentistry, pharmacy, law, nurse training and en- gineering. Students in these depart- ments are doing excellent work, Each year finds the school's elevat- ing influences embracing a larger sphere of usefulness and a larger num. ber of ambitions youn men and wo- men. This year's student body num: bers persons from fourteen different states in the Union and some from Ja maica, Central America and Africa. ‘Where are five commodious buildings ‘on the campus, The Negro Baptist hospital, with capacity for a hundred ace 5 _ 5? 3 oo ee a eee patients, is situated two blocks north and furnishes clinics for the medical department. The school bas a_ well equipped faculty of twenty-five instruc: tors. Dr. M. V. Lynk, the founder and president of the institution, fs a man of rare scholarly attainments and exe- cutive ability. [le ts the author of “The Afro-American School Speaker and Gems of Literature” und “Black Troop: ers, or Daring Deeds of the Negro Sol- diers In the Spanish-American War.” Both of these books are in great de- mand and ure widely read, having run through several editions. In 1802 Dr. Lynk began the publica- tion of the Medical and Surgical Ob- server. ‘Chis was perhaps the first medical journal published by a mem- ber of the race in this section of the country. He is one of the founders of the National Medical association, which was organized at Atlanta during the cotton states and International expost- tlon in 1896. The University of West Tennessee 1s deservingly fortunate in having at Its head such an able man as Dr, Lynk. He is recognized by both educators and physicians as one of the best qualified men in these professions among us. Although young in the management of a school which takes such high rank in the different grades of higher education, Dr. Lynk has thoroughly demonstrated bis capacity for mastering the wide scope of In terests covered by the institution. Over 200 graduates of this school are scat: tered in various parts of the state and country and are doing fine work as leaders among our people in business and the professions. Mme. V. E.

Send stamps for INDICATIONS OF SOCIAL UNREST Patrlole Action For Future Betterment Is Suggested, MESSAGE FOR THE NEW YEAR TURES SARSLOS soe ecm ee omc By RALPH W. TYLER, Columbus, 0.—On down the corridor of time has come that bold, defiant, fearless declaration of Patrick Henry, “Give me liberty or give me death!” and it has uroused from inaction to militancy thousands of men who be- fore had been reconciled to the futility of fighting the world; who now, thrill- ed by this defiant declaration, believe and say one had best be dead than live shorn of constitutional rights and priv- ileges. Back from a period of 2,000 years, frelghted with the fragrance of peace, something divine-like whispers to us, “Blessed are the meek, for they shall inherit the earth.” And as these di- vinely Inspired words seize, hold and envelop us we hesitate between ag- gressive force and patient submission, wondering all the while if the promise will be fulfilled, doubting if the red corpuscles of courageousness should be permitted to crystallize into the shrinking spirit of a slave. We have met the enemy and they are ours!” sent over the blue waters of Lake Erte in 1812, has ever inspired brave men to battle in blood and to death midst the boom of cannon and the shriek of shells for the honor that comes to those who dare to fight against Might for the right. We fear neither the legions of earth nor the minions of hell when our rights are as- sailed and our liberties curtailed. Timorously, from out between the covers of that Book of Books, shrink- ing behind “the word of God,” there comes to us, “If any one smites you on the right cheek turn him also the left,” commanding us to suffer, but not strike back. But what monamen- tal courage, what a wonderful spirit of forbearance It requires to give heed to such a command even from him, when inspiring martial music, the buz- zas and the crowns and the honors await those who dare to fight with thelr blood and their Hyves injustice that stripa them of citizens’ rights and privileges! “The survival of the fittest” arouses within the manly man all that fighting spirit needed to sail his bark over the tempest tossed sea to the quiet barbor yonder where sets the glorious sun, or to make one’s way through an unyield Ing (in thelr prejudices) throng of ar bitrary, bitter foes who insist, In spite of every achievement recorded, that we are but a little higher than the patient, burden bearing ox—no better than a dog. When one has girded up bis loins, stasped the battling ax firmly and with grim determination prepared to hurl himself against the hated foe, deter mined on “an eye for an eye and 4 tooth for a tooth,” determined to con- quer or perish, how the hard bands clutching the battle ax relax and the hot blood cools and the spirit of Christ- Mike humility charges anger from its throne when from out the long gone past, serenely down through the ages, comes “Do unto others as you would that men should do unto you.” Torn by dissensions, distracted by the babble of voices, the militant and the submissive; urged on by the cray- ing for the honors and glory that are the reward of the returned blood stain- ed, conquering hero and dissuaded by the siren song of peace in a faroff fu- ture, we pause to ask, Which road must we take to reap the largest mead of praise-and the most lasting and com- forting peace? Which? Who can sure- ‘tw, Whieae Mek ee coe AMERICAN NEGRO ACADEMY. Holds Annual Meeting In Washington. Noted Men Among Speakers.

Edge Hill (Pa.) Congregation Thrives Under Rev. Brandon's Leadership. Edge Hill, Pa—The growth of the Antioch Baptist church In this town, @ suburb of Philadelphia, is attracting the attention of the Baptists of the state. Its membership is small, but very active and ambitious in its efforts to sustain in this part of the com- munity a place of worship to tneet the growing demands of the population of our people, which fs constantly increas- ing. The members have contributed liberally of their means for the maln- tenance of the church and are now planning to raise funds for a new chureh edifice. ‘The Rey. J. B. Brandon, pastor of this church, is one of the most indus- trious men in the ministry to be found anywhere in the state. He was born in Halifax county, Va., in 1870. His early education was obtained In the public schools of his native county— namely, Oak Grove, Mountain View and South Boston. After advancing far enough to receive a teacher's cer- tiflcate the Rev. Mr. Brandon taught for a time @ private schoot in Nor- folk, Va. In 1896 he became a resident of Philadelphia and worked at his trade Ae > # aia P if aes ee enon as an upholsterer and cabinet maker. Feeling called to the ministry and be- ing licensed to preach, he succeeded {n building a small church at Sbaron Hill, Pa, at the same time improving his mind by private study under Dr. William A.

SOME HSTORIGAL FACTS, | ARCOM ISNEO CRO: CMmancipaton yee mation which had for its object the abolition of slavery in the United States, the colored people have held celebrations on the first day of each succeeding year in honor of the event. It was not, however, until after the surrender of Lee at Appomattox Court House, Va., on April 9, 1865, that the act of Jan. 1, 1863, became truly ef- fective and a general freeing of the slaves throughout the country took place. The first slaves were landed at Jamestown, Va., in 1619, said to be twenty in number. At the close of the civil war this number had increased to 4,000,000, and fifty years later, or reck- oning from Jan. 1, 1863, to the present time, the colored race in America is variously estimated at from 10,000,000 to 12,000,000, It is therefore of his- torical interest to note that between Jamestown, where the first slaves were landed, and Appomattox Court House. where Lee surrendered, a great expo- sition is to be held this year near Rich- mond to commemorate the fiftieth an- niversary of the freedom of the colored people and to show what progress the race has made along different lines since 1865. ‘The exposition will be held under the auspices of the Negro Historical Asso. ciation of Richmond, of which the Hon: | Giles B. Jackson is the president and who is also the recognized head of the commission appointed by the governor of Virginia to arrange for and carry out the celebration. Mr. Jackson is a man of wide experience and is known throughout the country as a man of | ability and great capacity to handle successfully such large undertakings as the coming exposition. ‘The progress of the race has been quite phenomenal considering the cir- cumstances under which this progress has been made. A glance at the suc- cess of the race in agricultural pursuits which follows here will give the reader a very clear idea of what the Negro | has accomplished as a farmer and the | circumstances under which he has 1a- | Bored to bring about such marvelous results. | From 1865 to 1872 there was a very | large emigration of Negro workers | from the country into towns. The movement did not cease when normal | conditions were re-established in the south, though it is now in the nature ofa natural current toward the towns. about equal in degree to the parallel! movement on the part of the white population and due to analogous causes. But while the number of Negro agri cultural laborers has been diminishing relatively by comparison both with the number of Negroes employed in other occupations the opposite is true of the other classes of Negroes engaged in agriculture. Relatively the share crop: pers, tenants and proprietors are fn- creasing. = ‘This is a reassuring circumstance, as it shows that the tendency is for the Negro to improve bis position. He rises slowly and gradually from the lowest form of share tenancy, which fs really only a method of hiring labor, the laborer being kept on the land by retaining until the crop is harvested that part of his salary which fs paid In kind, up to the more developed forms of share tenancy and finally to tenancy with complete responsibility. Whereas in 1861 the few free Ne- toes living In the United States own- ed but an insignideant amount of the total farm land, the census of 1900 gives the value of the property owned by Negro cultivators as about $230. 000,000, and the following census in 1910 places the value of the agricul tural property (and and buildings) be: longing to colored farmers in the southern states alone at $272.900.000 As against $106,600,000 In 1900. This result must be considered re. markable when it is remembered that fifty years ago the Negroes possessed nothing. neither Inherited land nor the money to acquire land for themselves, To reach the point at whieh they are today the Negro farmers have had to exhibit powers of working and of say Ing which might In some eases with Justice be eallcd herote. The various axricultural associations which exist, mniting as they do the scattered eforts of the worthtest rep resentatives of the race, have contrib uted much to the progress of the Ne gro in agriculture. Equaily admirable has been the work of the federsi zoy ernment and of the separate states, 0 universities, of retigious tustitutions and of individual patriots and phitan | thropists. With the help of all these forces the Negro farmer is making rapid progress. “not only economically, but intellectual- ly and octally as well.
