BOLEY, Oka., July 14 — To prove that the Negro town whose population is incapable of self-government, such proud Caucasians as would judge and jury for the race, are want to point to that revolution, then black republic, Haiti, such a powerful country, such a southwest, here in the United States, they would behold the existence in one state alone - Oklahoma - despite the fact that they are conciliantly disentombing the Negro's capacity for self-government, and as a town buildup, Bed Bath Langston, Tatums, Brooksville, Veron and Dentieville, all in the state of Oklahoma, itself acquiescent in constituting a constituent of the American Negro. Boley with its 2,500 exclusively Negro population in Oklahoma, itself acquiescent in constituting a constituent of its 10,000 Negro population within a radius of ten miles, which population is a direct contributor to the municipality of Bed Bath Langston, its 10,000 Negro towns in Oklahoma, and the largest exclusive Negro town on the site of Mound Bayou, Miss, the much exploited Negro settlement.

There is no race discrimination in Boley, a Negro owned and populated town, when a white man puts in appearance at Boley, as is frequently the case, on business discrimination and revolting segregation to which Negroes are so frequently subjected, a white-governed community, a Negro town at white supervision that generous hospitality which must impress him with the Negro's sin. As Plymouth Rock, where the Pilgrim faction had been invading spies save for the hope it offered for freedom of thought and action, so Boiler has dozen years ago, was but a virgin forest. The plessure region that offered no welcome save to those who desired to establish a city, and the fact that "white or black, a man's man for all of that," that the Necro can bear of all the oppression, and that he has the intelligent capacity to defend the department.

A FEW ECHOES FROM RAILROAD DAYS The Results from the Efforts of Dr. Washington to Secure Better Accommodations for Our People OFFICIALS OF MANY RAILROADS PETITIONED! Washington, D. C. While there was no general observance of "Railroad Day" in Washing non committees appointed to wait on the railroads, a few colored ministers of the city preached on the subject of accommodations for colored passengers. Cadiz, Ky. A committee was appointed to present the complaint of the colored people in the state of Illinois Central railroads. A special resolution commending the president and officials of the railroad to the treatment of colored passengers was also adopted. Louisville, Ky. Representative colored citizens called on the general passenger agents of Louisville and other railroad accommodations for colored passengers. The committee was very cordially received and a satisfactory, and lengthy conference was held to discuss the discriminations do exist, but claimed that they are due to legal problems. However, the committee was told that some of the discriminations were contrary to the regulations and they were asked to provide a legal opinion so that steps may be taken to right matters. It was promised that the matter of providing sleeping car accommodations would be taken up with the different railroads, in the hope that something can be done to provide providing sleeping car accommodations seemed to be the difficult one to settle. The committee felt it was encouraged as a result of the conference. Petersburg, Va A small committee met in the office of the Colored Virginian and signed a protest against present railroad factions. The protesters gave colored passengers in the South. Snokane. Wash. The Colored Men's Business League of Spokane addressed a letter to the State Department of Chicago, urging the body to use its influence to improve the conditions complained of by Dr. Washington. The State Department thanked the association for the fact that the conditions complained of by colored men did not exist in the State of Washington. Hattiesburg, Miss. A committee adopted a "bill of complaints" and presented it to the superintendent of Mississippi Central railroads. They mailed copies to the New Orleans & Northeastern and the New Orleans, Mobile & Chicago railroads. On the officials of the first two railroads named, were cordially received, went over the complaints with the officers and were promised that conditions would be Jackson. Miss. It is stated in Jackson that, as a result of Raleigh's filing petitions with the railroad commission, setting forth the contention that the state is colored people in the State are deplorable and protesting against discrimination practiced against their Birmingham, Ala. A large mass meeting of colored people was held in the Metropolitan District on Sunday, June 7, under the auspices of the Birmingham Civic and Educational League to make protests against the present separate car law of the South. After listening to strong addresses on the subject by a number of prominent speakers, the group moved to the nine railroads entering Birmingham, to the State railroad commission, to the state Commerce Commission, calling attention to the many discriminations which are made against colored people and asking for some remedy for the evils complained of. New Orleans, La. The most satisfactory reports thus far seen, however, have come from the department, including their wideawake chairman, Dr. Robt. E. Jones, editor of the Times-Picayune and in the Central Congregational church and issued an appeal to the public and the railroads urging the accommodations of passengers. The Times-Picayune (white) devoted considerable space to a report of the meeting, and an appeal was appointed to consult the representatives of the twelve railroads entering New Orleans. The open meeting, according to the Times-Picayune, were: "It is a matter of no small significance that the New Orleans ship of the true and tried apostle of peace, Booker T. Washington, are gathered and cities to invite national and local consideration of the public humiliation and cities upon the prevailing methods of operating the separate car laws."

From the Combined Protest of the Race Role and Hatred-Engendered Inquiries of in the Southern States—Reports From a Day—Praise for Dr. Washington. paper does not indicate the part which he took in working for the success of Railroad Day; but it shows what was done. He said: "What was interesting and encouraging as we proceeded with the movement to establish a large railroad company, every willingness to give a respectful and sympathetic hearing to our complaints. New Orleans is a railroad centrally located in the city, and the officials of the large trunk lines entering New Orleans but that accepted suggestions and appointed a time when he would be able to complain to the complaints of our people. This in itself was significant. There were those who were interested in the situation at once the replies that came from the general offices were courteous, respectful and cordial and in every case the complaints that could be expected and the complaints were heard and promises were made. Twelve things were apparent: The high railroad officials had not had their attention called to the situation and as soon as the knowledge of the many indignities that we suffer and inconveniences that are heaped upon us by the train crew and others had been put into operation of the train. Again, they do not know but that we were satisfied with the conditions and as soon as the matter was correct, now seem to have been put through in every city in the South with gratifying results." The promise was given that the evils would be corrected, and as soon as the program had been put through in every city in the South with gratifying results," but which was true, nevertheless, was that Dr. Jones and his committee called on representatives of the Pullman Car Company to show that this program could so many dignity and zeal that the division superintendent intended that they send him a letter to be forwarded one of the officers of theuring thaturing care be provided for ousted people, even if the drawing rooms must be split and berths sold at the regular rates. The Race Under New Debt to Dr. Washington. Dr. Washington has done many of them, but if he had done nothing else, colored people all over the United States, philosophical or not, must admit—and they are going to do that freely—course in publicly pointing out the injustices and indignities heaped upon them, all under an eternal debt of gratitude.

The "Judge Turtle Edition" of the Cincinnati Union was a unique contribution to current literature. It is a waste of time to bandy words with a journalistic bonehead who doesn't know the difference between non-partisan news-matter and political advocacy. Whether the so-called business depression is "psychological" or otherwise, it is a significant fact that no Negro banks or big business enterprises have failed. There is too much trouble in our churches when trying to in the "sinner" who is seeking the pleas of peace or the reponse that comes of right cousness. The conspiracy against Bishop Elias Cottrell failed—and it deserved to fail. Sensible churches do not allow useful men to be ruined by unsustainable rumors, C. M. E. is loved-headed connection. All discussion as to the propriety of leaving in or taking out of the marriage ceremony the promise of the woman to "obey" is sheer waste of time. The fair deal continues to do as they please, anyway. No head of a church, school, business establishment or other activity can be held in the church, men and women who are "agreeable" him and who are disposed to work in harmony with him for the good of the cause he stands for. * The 100,000 cottonseed, oil mill at Mound Bayou, managed entirely by Neal Cohen, a civil and industrial establishments of the land.

M. Hershaw, a sometimes critic of the educational policies of Booker T. Washington, is now a stewardish city in stupendous town. To see this remarkable city in the heart of the South's Black Belt is to be converted to the wisdom of the Wizard's practical propaganda, and Proof Hershaw confessed himself a "convert." A writer in a Western paper factiously refers to Washington as "the nation's capital, where unde leisure and kaleidoscopic administrations make for business sterility and suave assemblies. Has the nation been so successful in the seat of government that he should speak of its "culchawed" populace thus cruelly? With Negroes all over the country owning automobiles and stately homes, eating the best in the market, wearing fine dresses and carrying shoes, legged and running banks, stores of all kinds and prospering in the professions and the trades, no one with an ounce of manfettest down." The Negroes of Alabama have built a railroad—not as long, perhaps, as the jenny wag. The wide waist. The master mind that conceived and executed the stupendous task of building this line is William E. Benwalga. The constructive road of Kowaliga in Washington. The road is fifteen miles in length and runs from Kowaliga to Alexander. Dr. C. V. Roman's friends insist that he allow the presentation of his name at the next general conference of the NAACP in Washington, theorship of K. A. M. E. Church Review. He is noncommittal on the subject, offering no enquiry. Dr. Roman's sterling literary qualities, and it should not permit him to say nay, when it calls him to duty. We shall see what we shall see in 1916. N. B. Dodson, the energetic manager of the colored newspaper plate service for the NAACP, elected for the seventh time as president of the New England Baptist Sunday School Association, which met recently and made a highly capable official ad his continuance at the head of this helpful organization and made a keen token of its willingness and capacity to grasp its opportunities for good work. Rutledge Rutherford, the distinguished American ethologist, is out with a theory of the development of the near-human race that thrived in the Lard of Nod at the time of his expulsion from the rebellion of Abel. This eminent scientist also squares the Darwinian with the Bible by a skillful argument at to the evolution of the human race, which catches the Garden of Eden in tropical Africa, where the flora had reached a pinnacle of luxuriance unknown before the subsistence was so easily obtained that the spot was indeed an earthly Paradise, and the subsistence are invited to sit up and take notice. Prof. W. H. Fouse, supervisor of the colored city schools of Lexington, Ky., and the colored city schools of the country. He is said to be a man of fine qualities, possessed of great executive ability and has educational qualifications of the highest professional state license from the State of Indiana, and was for seven years in which he received his A.

Lexington is an accomplished gentleman and scholar at the head of her colored school system. The recent sixteen-page business edition of The Star, of Newport News, Va., has been a classic art. The issue was full of news that reflected the highest achievements of the company, its vertirements indicated that the colored brother, along with his white competitor, was the best of the great shape. The card of the Negro business man is an announcement and the ad. of the white man is an invitation, and of the black man is a cater to the manifold needs of one of the steadiest and most consistent buying groups.

From the external viewpoint, in the contest for United States Senator in Ohio, it would seem that all the co-sponsors would be by Joseph B. Foraker. But internal facts reveal a different situation. The brother is playing a different game, along with the other menmen, and it has been discovered that there is going to be some lively mixing up of candidates. Mr. Harding, of Marion, former Lieutenant Governor of Ohio, has an even break with Foraker, Mr. Harding, of Marion, less and square; and from the practical viewpoint, the brother is figuring that Harding has a better chance to win in every Democrat is an open seat from every Democrat from Governor Cox to Tom Thumb, are working and praying for Foraker's nomination.

The Negro citizens of Atlanta, Ga., are complaining because they have no representative on the police force. It's a wonder that a white policeman would arrest a Negro in that neck of the woods. Well, we guess the color line don't count when performing such a solemn duty. Since they push the color line so hard they might just as well take on some Negro policemen. But they might arrest some white person. Aye, there's the rub! At the invitation of Hon. Payson Smith, State Superintendent of Education for the State of Maine, Booker T. Washington has been accompanying Mr. Smith for eight days through the state of Maine delivering a course of lectures to the public school teachers and others of that state. The principal meeting of the series was held at Castine, Maine, where Mr. Smith has a meeting of all the city and county superintendents in the state at which Mr. Washington spoke. The next annual meeting of the National Negro Business League is to be held at Muskogee, Oklahoma, August 19th, 20th and 21st. The previous meetings have been large and successful. It is thought that the forthcoming gathering will be the largest in the history of the association. in view of the surrounding state, Kansas, Missouri, Arkansas, the Louisiana with their 2,000,000 population, the claim, we think, is not overstated. Then there is a greatly increasing interest in business. Agriculture is claiming a large share of attention. This means that thousands of spectators will go to Muskogee because it will be to their interest to do so. It is being circulated that the Alabama Republican State Executive Committee has sought to eliminate the Negroes from participation in party affairs by adroitness and skill, and that the Bull Moose people came out flat-footed saying, "Taint no use hangin' around!" The Democrats are standing pat, consequently the brother finds himself in an extreme state of lonesomeness. However, he is going right along, making ready for the conventions, electing delegates and so forth just as if nothing has happened. The Bull Moose convention comes off next week. It is anxiously awaited because of what it holds up its sleeve by way of fate for the Negroes. Will the convention have the nerve to carry out its threat? Senator Hoke Smith, of Georgia, recently introduced a bill in the Senate having for its object the placing of the offices of Recorder of Deeds and Register of Wills under the district commissioners, requiring as a condition eligibility for the offices a bona fide residency for the appointee, three years prior to the appointment. The Senator, in support of the measure, said: "The business done by these offices is for the residents of the district. There is every reason why both the recorder and the register should be selected from bona fide residents, and that they should not be politicians brought here to be rewarded for party support in other localities. "I believe too, that offices of the importance of the recorder of deeds and register of wills should be a proper publicity." "Proper publicity;" whatever that is, is all right, maybe. We rather think that the Senator doesn't care very much about a Negro in the office of register of deeds. Colored subjects of France are being tried in noncombatant posts in the French navy with great success. One hundred Sengalee worked in the stokehole of the flagship of the Mediterranean fleet for two months with entire satisfaction to the admiral in command. According to the report the men seized delighted with their companion's guardment of West Africa has undertaken to supply the navy department with a draft of 200 Sengalee annually. The French are persistent in their effort to enlist Negroes in their army and navy. This is a striking fact in face of what is encountered in this country. Here the effort is to put the Negroes under the ban. Perhaps it is not to make such a sweeping assertion, for the Negroes are valued by many. However, there are too see nothing to admire in Negro soldiery because of their fine soldierly qualities. It's the reason, of course, and which we all know. But just the same, France is enlisting a terrible fighting host, and which may mean more for that country than may be thought at this time. Guess it would be extremely provoking to have one's mules stolen if he should be so fortunate as to have them. Guesses an individual feels very much like putting an end to any one who would steal them, but we can't see why the laws are not made to fit the crime, that is, if they are not thought strong enough. If capital punishment is the penalty for mule stealing it should be so "nominated in the bond." News comes this week from Lake Carmorant, Miss., that a Negro was hung for the theft of three mules by a mob near that place. Investigation failed to establish the identity of a single individual taking part in the lynching. Happily, the mob spirit is growing less and less each year. Mobs are getting to be the unexpected rather than the expected, as they were a few years ago. News of lynchings is beginning to sound mighty bad in this great, free country of superior intelligence. Those that feel they must take part in them will have to exercise considerably more skill than those of the past to cover up their identity. The mob is going; it's got to go. It has no place in this new age of the greatest progress. SLOW IN MAKING GOOD HIS PROMISE. it is hardly fair to President Wilson to expect of him the same as would be expected of a Republican President. He is yet human, mortal, which in the last analysis is, that he is a party man in spite of his high code of political morals. He has been reminded of his promise to a delegation of colored men, when it is said that he said that he would replace every ousted colored Republican by a colored Democrat, or at least, by a colored man. A note of complaint had this recently: "How well the President has kept that promise is shown by the fact that he has quickly, and unceremoniously, and without apology, appointed white men to succeed a colored asistant attorney general, auditor for the navy, register of the treasury, asistant register of the treasury, collector of the port of Beaufort, S. C.; consult to Conac, France; collector for the aid of St. Marty, Ga.; collector to the Azores, minister to Haiti; also a member of the District Board of Charities, which is an unsalaried office. Also a number of colored clerks have been succeeded by white clerks." We are not affirming the statement that President Wilson promised to put colored men in all offices vacated by colored men. We know nothing of such a promise. However, we are in for a square deal with the race. Something is due Negroes from the Democratic party owing to support given that party. Mr. Wilson should be, at least, as thoughtful and generous as Grover Cleveland was. If the Negroes must be dealt with as a race, then something is due them as a race. The white men of the country can keep down much of the trouble they think and talk about if they will get right, rather than insist on staying wrong just to aggravate the Negroes. CLASS LEGISLATION PROPOSED We take it that most of our congressmen at Washington are wise men—men of sound convictions and good judgment. We think this is true even when the party whip forces men to choose sides on issues that in their minds are questionable as to civic propriety. These careful men, most of them, give away in the interest of the party; and we find their votes registered on their respective party sides. A few, nevertheless, hold out, keeping faith with their conscience, and we find their names in the list of the few—just like the list of the immortals; it cannot be long in contrast with the possible other lists. Such men, after all, are greatly respected, and are readily returned to congress as the most rampant demagogue. In Indiana we had a Holman, once, called the objector, the cheese parer and other names that meant economy. He was respected because he was held to be politically virtuous—virtuous to a fault. Senators Tilman and Vardaman are not admired outside of their own states. And it may be doubted if they are admired at home. They have a dirty work to perform, and in harmony with the will of their constituents, consequently they are tolerated by them. That they are not loved is shown by their waning popularity. Thoughtful men figure out that there's something wrong with a man who boldly assaults the rights of some other man. Men secretly care for personal superiority, race superiority, just as they care for family superiority; they will not think much of a man who willfully strikes down an individual, a race or family in order to bring up the value of him to race or family. Men reason from outwards inwards; they bring the case home to themselves, where conscience is, and which, when unperverted, is man's best advocate and judge. Sometimes silly men escape to congress just as sometimes very good men "escape" to prison. Men have worn stipes to shield others—died that others might live. O. yes, men have been in prison who would not barter away the rights of men. Congressman Parks, of Georgia, is a recent recruit to the Tilman, Vardman, Blease crowd. He was elected to fill the unexpired term of Congressman Parks, of Georgia, to intensely anti-Negro. This same Roddenberry declared on the floor of the House that he would not knowingly vote a dollar to pension a "nigger." That was a silly expression and wholly unworthy of a man chosen to serve in a high place. Race partisanship, one would say, would compel to think of his speech as sly. But aside from this—race consideration—there are several very strong reasons why he should not have thus expressed himself. The very country was assailed, that it made a soldier of the Negro man. God was assailed in that He thought fit to create such a man. Then if we will have no God in it, then that other unseen agency it is that made the creation of the white men, black men, red men, yellow men, black men, soeer color. That is not all. But Roddenberry is dead. Requestscat in pace. We have to do with living. We have already remarked that Congressman Parks chose to cast his fortune with the crowd that sailed under the banner that reads: "The Negroes have no rights that a white man is bound to respect"—that's the old gag, and may not be especially avowed at this time, but it's the same thing, not figurative, but literal. Nor are we in for war—not in for fragrantly faunting to the breeze every indication of trifling racial indisposition. But we are vitally attacked a few days ago when Congressman Parks introduced the following bill in the lower house at Washington: "Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives of the United States of America in Congress assembled, that from and after the passage of this Act it shall be unlawful for persons of Negro race to be designated, elected, or appointed commissioned or non-commissioned officers in the army or navy of the United States. That all laws in conflict with this THE FREEMAN, AN ILLUSTRATED COLORED NEWSPAPER. Act be and the same are hereby repealed." Address, "The Gospel of Money; Should Churches Exclude Members Who Red Nick, 3b; Gillisple, 1 utility; Spelding. Giving the author of the act the benefit of the doubt, thinking it possible that he could have been acted by a higher motive than is apparent, we yet see him clearly in the wrong. If there is a plausible side, it is, that, owing to the known racial feeling, and owing to the peculiar relationship of army life with its emphasized social phase, thus making for conditions that would not be to the best interest of the country to have Negro officials in the army and navy, nor in the interest of the efficiency of those organizations. All of us will have to admit the danger along this line and which is greater today than it was years ago. Negro candidates for West Point are no longer nominated since Flipper had their slits. It was quite enough to take the run out of those of similar aspirations. However, Major Young met a better fate. He is the last of the Mohicans" and is now doing duty among his kind in Liberia, Africa. In fact, it is the better way to make some satisfactory disposition of such men. They know conditions. They and the government are as parties of the first and second parts, or reversed, and consequently there need be no misunderstanding. The terms are known. If Major Young was a white man he would not be serving in Africa. The major knows this. We are not among those who expect the government to do the implemible things we know. These situations quite as well Mr. Wilson does. We know what he can give in safety. We know what Congress can do in safety. Congressman Parks is not excusable even if he supports his bill after the admitted plausible reason we have set out. No government, especially the Republic of the United States, has the right to array itself against a part of the people. Aliens and "afterthought" classes, who were not in mind at the making of the Constitution, perhaps, do not merit the same consideration. But the Negroes entered the Constitution by special provision, to all intents and purposes, and now to be legislated especially against would not be governmental. The government can continue to manage to get along by doing what's best in any emergency without going to the extreme thing of putting the word Negro in national legislation. We say this as much in the interest of a group of people, as in the interest of our special mission. We can preserve our idealism and yet maintain the friendship of the ten million Negroes. We have referred to such laws as Mr. Parks proposes as, not laws, but proscriptions, and meant to insult those they touch. And Mr. Parks and the rest of them, whoever they may be, may rest assured that, as meek and lowly as the ten million have been, they will see to it, that they do not blossom and fructify into that Dead Sea fruit—Crucifixion.

NOTES OF THE GAME. "Dicta" Johnson and his spitter were too much for the Mohawks Sunday. The team's first win was Foster's pastimers and promises to even up matters for treatment received on their last visit here. * "String Bees" Williams bested the team Monday, letting the hard-hitting easterners down with four measly singles. "Knuckles" James, treasurer and second sacker of the Mohawks, is one of the players in the game, wearing a colt, "Knuckles" wears some jewelry, too, and when he appeared on the avenue he made the lights in front of the Crown Garden Theater look like candlesticks. Dunbar pulled off some fancy stunts in the garden and coupled with Sam Bennett the center, makes a pair that is hard to beat. Cooper at first base came up to expectations, fielding several wild throws perfectly. In Tuesday's game the Mohawks had a feast off of Simpson and "Steel Arm" players, and winners until "String Bean" Villain the visitors hitless and runless. Ben Taylor, of the locals, is hitting like a demon. It takes some nerve to play in on Ben as the ball from his bat goes like a rifle shot. Morris, an old time A. B. C, favorite, played short field for the Mohawks, in absence of their regular man, who is one of the game on account of an injury. 2,500 people witnessed Sunday's game. Mrs. Dottie Wickwair, Mrs. Sade James and Mrs. Sam Bennett, whose husbands are traveling with the team, will know the fine points of the game and do some more "rooting" for their favorites. "Chapple" Johnson, the polished catcher for the Mohawks, won the fans by his fine work. He is one of the best in the business, coaching the team in fine form. "Chapple" is good for many more seasons. The Sunny Dixie Minstrels will open their tented season July 18th, 1814, in the Lakefront lighted by the Rock Island shops. Every night they will take a much needed rest and will happen return to work on the 18th. Our 75-foot crew an entire repair from bumper to bumper will now stand the inspection of the most critical. The Sunny Dixie bunch certainly will stay in Shawnee and the Dixie Minstrels played two games while in Shawnee the first game was on Tuesday and the second was up to us by a score of 5 to 3, and the Dixie Minstrels could beat for money and believed they could beat up the second day and the Dixie was put up the second day and the Dixie score was 10 and 6 in the boys favor.

Write or wire to AN ANGLO-SAXON'S VIEW Of the American Negroes of Today—Touching Upon the Famous "Jim Crow" Car Law. 6 (By J. E. O. Coleman) The colored people of the United States are rapidly improving every day as a race. You and I may not live to see it, but I believe that the colored people of America, before another century will illuminate themselves, and playing a more prominent part at the National Capitol. But, as long as the United States exists as a white wealthy theater manager and a black or African American people who were once their masters. This controversy arose between a wealthy white theater manager and a black or African American people, the predominant whites would have more respect for the Negro. Colored people are too soft, they are not very much one hundred years, and are still a very happy race, indeed. Colored people of the South are badly treated at the White masters, and irresponsible white people, who will tear down Ucorn Sam's high percentage of civilization, as compared with that of the other nations of the Of course the Negroes are Jim Crowed and to a large extent ill-received as citizens and upon their own law, they are often accused of law exists, the colored people should have their own chair car and day coach, as they pay the same amount of money for transportation as any one other. They are also the proper amount of an intoxicant is obtained by some colored people, they will conduct themselves so badly that ten wish there were "first-cars" for the ones who persist in being boisterous and rude. Or, to be a trifle more lenient to them with a sub-divisioned Jim Crowed, they should grove in one part and the second class Negroes in the other.

It looks very hard for the Spaniard, Mexican, Pole, Greek, Pollard, or any other peddler of the white people to receive better public service in this great try of ours, than the colored people, who are, without the slightest doubt, much a citizen of this country as any else, will be out with fairly and squerely sooner later.

He prefers for a ment and said: "White people are sometimes rather peculiar and will proclaim their disagreements against people whom they consider oppressors, even to the Japanese in California, and the Japs are a strong nation." I asked: "How can the colored people get better service on the railway than the Jim Crow carriages, to have together your professors and bishops and the people of your race, unionize them, and make an appeal of your discontent directly to the authorities, and annoy any legislature, where you are sure to lose your case."

Griff.) It pays to be honest in your dealings with all mankind, for you know that from what source it may overtake and from what source it may overtake and some day. Just now the country is learning the efficiency of the teaching of children, who teach them daily. The question that is puzzling the masses is, Are they making their whole duty toward the pupils their care? Are they making the success to be tendency on the children? There seems to be a tendency on the number of those who teach to seek position and promotion and care but many change to the children they teach only for the purpose. We have noticed the scramble for years for several years, also the many changes in some of the given to the patrons by some of the teachers that would not be tolerated old Dallas schools where some real change have prevented the occurrence and the large number of pupils would have vananced their various studies. It is time let them be interested in the public servants and servants become more interested in the kindler feeling in the making and graduating efficiency of pupils to take the places of that class of teachers in the college, make a pay day. A general shaking will come some day and the public will be benefited by it. He bigges Negroes you see in the bumble homes giving timely advice without pay or the price.

Saint Louis, Missouri FREEMAN'S SPORT NEWS FROM POLE TO POLE ALL THE REAL NEWS THERE ACKNOWLEDGED UP TO THE FINAL ANOTHER CHAMPIONSHIP GONE. Freddie Welsh, Britisher, Puts It On Willie, Ritchie. (By Billie Lewis.) In London, July 7 Freddie Welsh, the English lightweight champion, beat Richelle for the world's lightweight championship. The team with no surpasser. The little Englishman was known to have chased Richelle over America, just as Johnsons it necessary to chase Burns over the world, before he could en- Five him that that Ritchie held the title was all that he wanted, as he insisted. Welsh had defeated him long before he had then, too a few weeks ago, White met him and he was defeated by the way White defeated defeat. He put in a pain for the claim of Ritchie would be his later anticipated defeat by Welsh. What Ritchie will not see internationally will not plain to see, but more than likely Welsh will not see by White's claim. Ritchie retained the title because decisions are Welsh. not all, but the defect of Ritchie by White, and his previous defect with the book, was to meet Ritchie, ran the stock up pretty high, the better was that a little English glove, Wishill, was a little English glove, gave demand made by Ritchie, and was as dictatorial as Jack John- so I use his own language: "It seems good to be good to true, that after chasing Bitchie all over America, I am finally able to have a chance to tell her everything I told Hitchie he could would agree to in sight as long as he gave 50 per cent of the gross gate receipts to a guarantee of $25,000, and 50 per cent of what's left after he share and expenses are deducted. But I was satisfied to meet him even if I not nothing." The London audience was also clasely like that of the man who did not come up with a point of brilliancy or numbers. Here at the Olympia, in London, 8,000 persons sat down, while something like 35,000 sat at the Velo. Not much is being said on this side about our hard luck, losing two of the greatest championships and cleans up in the race. we may well exclaim, "Full times have befallen us." Then that automaton will be "absolutely nothin' doin' our line." One gets in the reflective mood and unconsciously finds himself stinging the international ring where it happens, for answer for. It does look as if somebody has got about us for America, an apparent America will have to get together—pool its sport interest—nationalize it and move it to a major event may be directed with system. May be we do not feel the necessity. Well, then, we must pay the penalty. WELSH GAINS DECISION OVER RITCHIE IN 20-ROUND BOUT. American Weeps After Battle--Willie Forces the Fighting--Eight Thoung and boxing Fans See Clash--Dee Forces the Fighting--Blood, but No Knockdowns, Ocgrh. do not intend to make a holer, but I think the worst I should have got was a Welsh was holding all the time and I was doing the fighting. Therefore, I think the decision was not far to me. "Mike hurt his right hand in the bout, otherwise was not much damaged, except for a few bruises on the face." the oldtimers are agreed that the coaters one of the fastest and finest exhibition booths witnessed them London in recent years. They were the opinion that Ritchie would come out on top in a final fight. The coachers were far quicker than the dressing and he preferred much of the time to take lower quartzes, where Ritchie could not. There was altogether too much booth throughout to please the English speakers. Ritchie Carrier Flight During the last four rounds Ritchie was the fighting hard for a knockout, but his clash was plainly trying to win a decisive victory. The success of the affair is likely to create a great interest in the coming games between Gunboat Smith and George Smith, who will be the French champion. Smith was then introduced tonight. given of "Father" Boulier, in medical garb, who was announcer a novice, but the man who appealed to the hands of women flizzied to a mere contempt. The American continent included many theatrical people, others whom the members of the Army and Union body took. Many of the nobility sat close to the impress, and several clergymen.

It was the desire for the big win, the probably cost him the title, for I doubt he would have referee would have decided in favor of the player.

The best Ritchie have drawn for the battle in this country where Welsh has never been a great neighbor of $1,500. He was in the neighborhood of $1,500. He anteceded twice this sum by the London team, and also given the privilege of a librarian, and also given the receipts exceeded a certain amount. "Ritchie was foxy enough, if reports be true, to bind Welsh to a return to this country. In that he showed that he was from being a foolish boy, even though he got rich quick cost him the title of world's champion lightweight. How worry over such the sort who doesn't worry over such the sort as the loss of a championship when the zuma is in kick.

Paris.—French's proposal that boxing be permitted at the Olympic games in Berlin, in 1916, was adopted by large numbers of the international Olympic Congress. The series of competitions is to include eight categories, with the heaviest weights. A subcommittee was appointed to settle the rules and regulations for the contests. The German delegation stopped a number of boxing contests, but suggested that an exception might be made and permission be given for boxing competitions. The delegates rejected the Austrian suggestion that bicycle events should be held decided that bicycle events be held under the rules of the International Cyclist Union. Fencing is to be conducted by the International Fencing Federation. Women are not to be admitted as competitors either in fencing or bicycling. CLEVER MANAGERS NECESSARY TO SUCCESS OF TITLE AS-PIRANTS. Many Medicore Boxers Have Reached the Pinnacle of Pugilistic Fame Through Untling Efforts of Pilots—"Batling" Levinsky Example. (By Tom Thorp.) Fight managers have been referred to as mouthpieces for fighters. While few writers find time or inclination to give them a great amount of adverse criticism. While few writers find time or inclination to give them a most important asset of the modern day fighter. Without the advice and training of a specialist, he would be a ship without a pilot. He might travel all over the fight world to establish a valuable market to exhibit his merchandise. True it is that the manager collects 25 to 33 per cent of his fighters's earnings. He is the manager of the long years of hardship encountered by the up-to-date manager of the fighters' force becoming fully qualified properly to look after the interests of his scraper, the pay can not be called exorbitant. Boxers Need Clever Managers. Many boys have shown that they have the making of fairly good wielders of the glove, but for the reason that they are not equipped with a clev. THE FREEMAN, AN ILLUSTRATED COLORED NEWSPAPER "Billy" Nolan is another manager whose ability to pilot a fighter along the proper road to success, will long be remembered by fight fans. Battling the enemy with financially and otherwise, is due in fine measure to clever handling by Nolan. Tom Jones Classy Pilot. "Tom" Jones, the noisy chap who first came into prominence by managing champion "Aaron" Wolgast into a championship, as well as Tom O'Rourke, who by the way, has no doubt pushed to the top of the league, but the others than any other living man, is a good example of the manager who has by his cleverness placed his charge in the championship. "Billy" Delaney, who developed former champion Jim Jeffries from a sparing partner of Jim Corbett into a real star, "Dan" Stuart, "Jack" Gleason, Jim Coffrother, the late Willus Britt and a hunter men could be included in the list. Smith-Carpentier Bout Attracts. Smith-Carpenter Bourt Attracts. In the proposed fight between Georges Carpenter and the cuttings is cutting considerable figure. The Parisians give Gunboat more than an even chance with Carpenter. In fact, the cuttings are more dangerous less Carpenter keeps a way from Smith and fights at long range that his chances for success will be rather small. The cuttings are more dangerous punch. In England the American is only given the outsider's chance. The bout no doubt will furnish a good comparison of the respective strengths of the two players, being a legitimate candidate from this side of the water and Carpenter the other can put forward, and for this reason the primary interest will center in the fight.

JOHNNY KILBANE IS THE LEADER WHEN IT COMES TO KNOCKOUTS. Kilbane is some knockoutout, notwithstanding the fact that New York sport writers and unfriendly critics in other cities, says W. R. Wostock, in the Cleveland Press. Johnny hasn't been knocking out his opponent, the wholesale, but neither has any of the other champions. Kilbane's tactics have been typical of those of all champions. Champions fight cautiously. They stack up against fighters of whose ability lites is known. The challenger has little or nothing to lose while the champion's crown always is in danger, whether the fight be an exhibition bout or a battle billed as a championship match. That is why champions figure in so many no decision battles. The records show that Kilbane has more knockouts than more battles and any other present-day champion, and that he has more knockouts to his credit than were recorded. As Stall in the two years before he lost his crown to the Cleveland. The Kilbane-McGinty bout is not figured. Like McGinty, heavyweight champion, has fought only nine fighters since he won the title from Tommy Burns on December 26, 1908. In that time he has knocked out only three men. Attell scored six knockouts in twenty-one games over the next 24 years before he was defeated by Killian. Willie Richie has fought fourteen times and knocked out two men since 1910. Johnny Coulon, while bantam-weight champion, had fought twenty times since 1910, and sent six men to dreamland in the words of the fighters—Attell's for the two years before he lost the title, Johnson's since he won the champion. Ritchie's since 1910. Coulon's since 1910. Killian's feated Attell on February 22, 1912. THE FIRST GAME OF BASKET: BALL. CAPITAL CITY LEAGUE DOPE.

INDIANAPOLIS PEOPLE IN CHAR LESTON, IND.—A DELIGHTFUL VISIT TO SCENES OF FOR- MER DAYS. A hike to the woods or some other far off place—to the hills, the streams or creeks, the cool and shade, and where the surging throng and the heat of great cities are not is a most pleasurable contemplation. muddy are those indeed who have the strength to walk through these areas wherewiths to bring such contemplations to pass. A bunch of Indianapolis residents come together to converse with themselves of the hot haunts town, taking themselves off to old haunts and scenes and where they enjoyed a two days' outing to thoseose health influences already mentioned. The members of the party were Mr. J. Wesley Bridges, his wife and young mother, George Joseph Simmons, the Freeman George Simmons who was accompanied by his niece, Miss Lenina B. Smith and Indian Thaddeus Smith. They left Indianapolis Friday July 19 to attend the hour of the 12:15 p. m. The sonulent old town, one of the oldest in the state, and that dead hour of the night, corresponded to the hour to be rid of the hurly-hurly of a great city. They welcomed the silence and loneliness, the silence and loneliness welcomed them. Messrs. Bridges, Simmons and Smith were formerly of Char The visitors, who, more or less are kin, were received at the home of a rela- tioned family, and cared for, and in that good old fashion- country way.

A colle- gium held in his library, was a feature of the scattering of sunshine. A drink at the public spring which is never known in the village, was a feature of the return to town. The pleasure of the party was somewhat marred owing to the fact that Miss Ind., who was sponsored by Princeton, Ind., who was sponsored by Charleston, was called home by telegram which announced the death of a near and dear friend, who was survived, being carried, taking dinner at Mrs. Wilson's home. Reeves' spring and the Indian Cave, a lover's retreat, were visited in the evening and the morning. Command and Thaddeus Smith joined the party at breakfast at the home of Mrs. Wilson.
