E. chnch Wednesday evening under the auspices of company "D" of the volunteer army of which Mrs W. S Brooks is the captain was a decided success and quite a neat sum realized. The lecture room of the church was appropriately decorated with field corn and jack o'lanterns and after supper some of our most dignified cateries and professional men participated in the old fashioned hollo'ween taffy pulling. The members of the younger social set of the city enjoyed a halloween purge at the home of Miss Ethel Stew art in Highland Park on Tuesday night. The house was lighted by jack o'lanterns and apples were also used as candle holders. The guests assembled at an early hour and music and games were enjoyed. One of the chief attractions of the evening was the gypay fortune-teller who was afterwards identified as Mrs. Bess Hughes. The guests then proceeded to the large orchard where a blazing fire was built and an Indian war dance took place about it. Refreshments were served consisting of cider and ginger-bread, pop corn and peanuts, and all hurried to catch the last car home. NUPTIALS, Married at the residence of D. A.

The democracy is disrupted and on November 6 will be completely routed. The danger which threatens our national life is the democratic disregard for law. The republican party recognizes ability and rewards it accordingly. All Afro-Americans look alike to democrats. "If we can't get the Negro out of politics peacefully and legally, by the eternal gods we'll do it anyway."—Senator Tillman. Take off your coat and work for your republican congressional non-nee until the evening of November 6; then we can shout and yell until we are hoarse.

As the boys in '61 buckled on the knapsack and clutched the gun, resolved that the government should be preserved, so today the same spirit animates them and their progeny. "The republican party is the ship. All else is the sea." - Hon. Frederick Douglass. "I believe I will have fifty or sixty thousand majority," says Governor Cummins. "My reports show that Iowa will have an old time republican majority," says Chairman Woods of the republican state committee. The Republican majority will be near 100,000 is our guess. Does Mr. Bryan speak the sentiment of the Iowa Democrats when he says in substance, that no good Democrat should vote for a man who hopes to win by the railroads influence. The greatest reason that every laboring man should support Mr. Cummins is because the corporation are against him. Every honest man who recalls the conditions of this country when Cleveland was president will vote the Republican ticket. A vote for Mr. Porter is an indorsement of the utterances of Tillman and Vardaman. If Tillman was a citizen of Iowa he would vote for Mr. Porter next Tuesday. When you go to cast your vote next Tuesday remember that A. B. Cummins heads the Republican ticket. Mr. Bryan came into the state thinking he could line up a few sore heads for the Democratic "The white people of the southern states where the negroes constitute a large proportion of the population are determined to nullify the Fourteenth Amendment to the Constitution of the United States so far as they can.

MAYOR'S CLERK MUDDLE. In Thursday morning Register and Leader we saw an article in which Fred German, the secretary of Mayor Mattern, stated that he lost the pleasure of seeing a Negro lynched in Meriden, Miss. Think of such a statement coming from a man who owes his present position to the vote of the Negroes. Had the Negro voters who have always been loyal to the Republican party voted for Mr. Holly, this specimen of humanity, for he is not a man, could not have went South to return with a statement that will insult every Negro that voted for HON. W. L. EATON, For railroad commissioner. Mr. Mattern. A pleasure to see a Negro lynched. Is he any better than Tillman? The colored people should brand such men. There are men in this city who have insulted every Negro in their efforts to convict criminals. Will the Mayor retain this man in his office or sever his friendship with every honest colored person? "I know of the bravery and character of the Afro-American soldier. He saved my life at Santiago, and I have had occasion to say so in many arti- Hon. Jonathan P.

CEDAR RAPIDS Mr. Ed Marshall has been at home from the hospital two weeks and is slowly improving. His friends hope to see him out soon. In the attic of Red Oak is a guest at the home of her mother-in-law, Mrs. L. Brooks. Mr. James Martin was in the city a few days last week, a guest at the parental home. The J. S.

Buxton, Ia. Oct. 29.—For the first time in the year 1906 and since the appearance of our special Buxton Souvenir Number last November, were ye editor permitted to rest his 'cary feet and steady his gull in the midst of the hospitable camp of Buxton. Since our special number, above referred to, there has been several Buxton write up; special numbers, editions, etc., by various works and dailies, and yet one to go each year will find enough new enterprises, new building additions, improvements, etc., to make a good and interesting write up. Perhaps the most interesting and best item was on last Sunday, when the corner stone of another new colored church was laid by the M. W. U. Grand Lodge of Iowa, A. P. & A. M., under the auspices of Cedar Grove Lodge of Buxton, assisted by the visiting brethren of other lodges with an escort of Sir Knights from De Moines. Grand Master, W. H. Milligan, had charge of the Masonic ceremonies, which was well executed considering the short notice in which the Grand Master and lodge had. At 2 p.m. the Buxton Cornet Bard assembled at their hall in the Y. M. C A. building and marched to the Masonic ball in Coopertown, where the line of march was formed, beaded by the band, then came the Sir Knights from Des Moines, Master Masons of Cedar Grove Lodge 18. of Buxton, visiting Master Masons and grand officers followed by carriages and pedestrians. It was a beautiful sight in the bright sunlight. The exercises were opened by music by the band after which Rev. C. H. Mendahlshen read the scripture and Rev J. A. Jackson delivered an able prayer, after which Geo. H. Woodson introduced Rev. J. O. E. Wimbush, the pastor who is building the church. A collection amounting to $23 48 was taken up. Rev. Wimbush stated that Governor Cummins could not be present but sent a letter, which was read by John L. Thompson. Hon. N. E. Kendell, the present representative and candidate for re-election, was introduced and made a good speech; he is always a sequester. John L. Thompson of Des Moines was next to be introduced, and his eloquent plea for better morals and purer leaders with good character and honest intent, held the vast audience of about 2,000 in wonder. The next speaker introduced was Geo. H. Woodson of Oskaloosa, whose wit and oratory always win the audience. He made a strong plea for independent citizenship, manhood and free thought. Grand Master Milligan with his Grand Lodge preformed the balance of the ceremony in laying the corner stone as only Masons can properly lay corner stones. Thus ended the exercises. This church ought to be a great factor in the solution of the mighty problems that confronts our race in Buxton. There are now five colored churches and two white churches here. All now have their own buildings, except the Congregational and the Church of God or Saints. Buxton is a great town to study our race, for here we have the high and low, the good and bad, the educated and uneducated, the law-abiding and law-breaking. There are now about 6,000 people here and fully 5,000 are colored, and since we were here last year there have been some large new buildings built, among which is a large three story frame building for the post office, in which on the ground floor is the pres-room of the Buxton Gazette, on the second floor is the postoffice, which is a large room office; on the third floor is the Justice office, dexius and the composing room of the Gazette. Other new buildings are the Company stone warehouse, new blacksmith and machine shops. Then the new boys Y. M. C. A. building in course of erection, to the regular Y. M. C. A. building, will be another building when completed will be the best equipped Y. M. C. A. building for colored in the world. On the South End are several new restaurants, drug store and etc. Next week we will speak of some of the business men and individuals who are doing well.
