PEACE!
PROSPERITY!!
UNION!!!
IN UNION THERE IS
STRENGTH.
Anyhow it is better to mind your own business, love your fellowmen, and cease transgressing.
Republicanism means opportunity to a great many of us, democracy fallacies mean destruction to the entire country.
It is never a good principle to meddle in anything and besides it shows a very tough disposition even, alto it may be garnished and tinsled.
Remember it is the church and the doctrines for which it stands that condemed us to adecent resuceed us in another century of vast changes.
The colored business me not Helena should remember that they have the Plaindealer as their friend. They should not too soon forget that we are greatly dependent on the other, and that the business men of other races enjoy all the advantages of civilization, and the benefit of long and vast experience over them. This however need not deter their ardent spirit. Let them keep the things in stock the race needs, and the Negro will awake some day and practice better principles. It would not be a bad policy to carry a couple of jack screws on our street railway cars.
THE NEGRO A WORLD FORCE
In the folk lore or history of all the people on earth, none present one more fascinating than htat of the negro.
There is that something indefinable about him that can be gesed at but not explained. It is eternal, so to speak.
He is a mighty force in the world's affairs today and each day brings on more clamoring as to his disposal.
So it was yesterday—that long yesterday, that stretches back to the gray dawn of humanity, and so will he apparently be tomorrow the tomorrow that will fade into twilight only when the race of man is being prepared for its end.
The reasons for which are plain Study his character, and the elements that have made and are making for his eternality are quickly apparent.
---
His quest for industrial justice will not be denied. His longing for an individual free field and a fair fight has become as much a part of him as his religion.
His thirst for knowledge can be likened only to a desert wanderer thirst for water.
And his steadfastness of purpose is equal to the volume of his desires. He will not flinch. He will not quit. That which he fights for today and fails to get, he will fight for again tomorrow. For collectively the negro knows not what it is to surrender. He knows only what it is to be defeated today and to be victorious tomorrow. For he never stops trying until he succeeds.
Otherwise, the negra would long ago have disappeared from the earth. Lacking these qualities he would have gone down before the onslaughters that have been made against him. He has lived only because he has earned it in that fierce arena of struggle and strife from which no one emerges alive but the victor.
And the negro is the mighty force he is in the world today onyl because he has demonstrated in competitive struggle, that he possesses power.
He has had his seat at the council table because he fought his way into the house. We accept no other certificate of election to a seat at this table. We respect no man's views who has not made his views worthy of respect.
Therefore we have in this country as factors in its multiplicative of affairs negroes like Booker T. Washington, W. H. Concille, W. S. Vernon, J. W. Lyons, Chas. W Anderson, W. E. B. DeBois. Ed. Morris, John G. Jones. Thos. Fortman and the late lamented Dunbar. B. T Washington is best known as a man in whose ability and fidelity are so blended that the whole world has united in one accord and called him "Leader" Foremost in matters of educationat, that which effects us most, he has also been the race councillor in all matters as related to the other race. Capacity for public service linked with dog-like fidelity to a trust has made the negro a prime favorite although prejudice has removed countless numbers in recent years.
Of another kind of public service, Lyons and Vernon are the examplers. We have them in countless numbers ar well as the public service.
In the field of finance ethe negor has just begun t omake himself felt. We have no less than half a dozen banks owned and controlled exclusively by negroes. In executive and legislative branches we have had one Governor of a State no less than 5 U. S. Senators and an endless number of Representatives. Robt Tenell is a judge in the District court of our National capital and Boston boasts of her talented negro judge. Se we might go on almost indifinitely enumerating negroes who hold places in America.
Even when he is a climber. To see a peak is with him to conceive a desire to conquer it. Sometimes it is gold that allures him, sometimes it isn't. In many instances it is that stamp of all infinite that lifts all men above the common clay.
We have our poets, painters and singers, all interperters of that which is best in nature.
Who can deny that the songs and words of Dunbar ore not as sweet as those of any singer at any time? Or that the paintings of Tanner are not the artists heart laid bare.
In the face of facts like these there can be no disagreement as to what the negro has done and is doing.
The disagreement, if any, must arise over the question. What is a negro? In the south where negroes live in daily peril of murder it is said that they are only fit to be servants.
For the sake of argument let it be admitted that these charges are true with regard to some negroes. It is unfair to indict a race for the acts of a few of its individuals.
The key-note of success is in this commercial age the power of gold. When we learn to love it as does the Jew and accumulate it, then our real power as a nation will be felt.
The persucation of the Jew the world furnishes a fair example of a much hatred people. Now that they control the money markets of the world theirs is a much happier lot.
In every walk of life they are forging to the front.
What then shall be said of a people who were a proud race before the prymaids were built and time with its changes has not worn out; who stands fast on their adopted soil and will yeild neither to the knout or the sword; who outnumbered 10 to 1 yet furnish leaders and followers for every movement that is launched against the wrongful use of government authority?
To all these titles of nobility the negro can lay claim, for they are rightfully his.
FRED E. SPEARMAN
A PASSENGER FOR THE TENTH FLOOR
By John H. Raftery
"I've been running elevators ever since they first put the old hydraulics into office buildings, and before that I run a 'lift' in a factory," said the elevator boy, whose hair was gray above his ears, but whose alert bearing, quick eye and nervous manner showed that he was yet equal to the work." I don't deny that a few people was killed in my shaft, but there's some people that'd get drowned on top of a mountain or struck by lightnin' in a snowstorm. Don't talk to me about the progress of human intelligence an' all that kind o' guff. If you want to get dead next to the stupidity, all-round cussedness and uncivilized condition of your fellow creatures, hire out as a chauffeur of an elevator. But anyway that ain't what I started to tell about.
"I'd been runnin' No. 4 in the Century Office Building for about three months, when I began to notice a man and a woman that got off at ten. He was a big, quiet, good-looking' fellow, and she was a little, fair-haired woman, with big, gray eyes and a nice way. She always called out the floor, and when we'd get to ten she'd say, 'come on, Charley, and he'd follow her out o' the car. I think that's what first got me to noticing them. I used to get them two or three times a week, and pretty soon I knew where they wanted to stop as well as they did.
"They ain't no use of goin' into particulars about how he got killed, because the damage suit is still goin' on and I'm a witness. It was in my car all right, and I don't mind saying that it was the only time he ever got in without the little woman with the big gray eyes. The cage was full, and two o' them called 'tenth floor," I stopped there good and proper, and was about to slam the door shut and shoot for twelve when he jumped. I didn't know he was blind then. It all come out at the inquest, but the fact is he jumped after the car started and after I had set the door to slamming. Of course he got caught. One
of his shoes pulled off, stayed in the cage. There was two passengers left in the car, and we all heard the sound when it—that is, when he struck the bottom. Oh, yes, he fell all the way, but that isn't what I started to tell either.
"It was about a week after the accident when she came back. You may be sure I noticed her. She was dressed as usual in a kind of gray skirt with a beaver sack, a dressy little hat and a veil pushed back and showing her big gray eyes. She didn't say a word just walked into the elevator and stood still. She didn't have to tell me where to stop. I swung the lever and opened the door at the tenth floor and let her out. She never so much as looked at me, and I was glad of it, for though I knew it wasn't my fault, I felt terrible about the accident. I caught her the next day at about the same time, and for four or five days afterward without my noticing anything queer. Then I happened to strike the tenth floor with only one other passenger besides her. I stopped, let her out and started for the top when the guy in the car says, 'What did you stop at ten for?' " 'To let that lady out, of course,'
"What lady? says he, looking at me kind of funny
"That lady with the fur jacket.
"Ah, get out,' he says, 'they wasn't nobody in the car but you and me.'
"Then" continued the elevator boy, "I began to get leery of the woman with hte fur jacket. I noticed that she went up in my car every day, but never came down in it. You know how men rubber at a woman in an elevator? Well, I began to notice that nobody ever rubbered at her, and she was a swell dresser and as pretty as a peach. For two weeks or maybe three, she kept going up in my car at the same hour every day, just about the same time of day when the accident happened. I got to wondering when she left and what was her business on the tenth floor, so I began to hang around the dispatcher and ask the other fellows if they knew her. I described her as near as I could, but nobody seemed to notice her but me. "The man that got killed off my car was named Whitefield—Horace J. Whitefield—and, remembering that he had been blind, I got to figuring out what his business had been on the tenth floor. There was two oculists on that floor, it was the busiest floor in the house, so, being worried about the woman, I took a day off and spent it finding out. Finally the office boy in Dr. Williams' office put me next to the fact that Whitfield had been a patient of his boss.
"Was Whitfield's wife in to-day?" I asked the kid.
"Nope,' says he, 'ain't been in since the accident."
"What kind of a looking woman is she?' I says.
"Toppy little woman, wit' a fur coat,' says he, 'but I ain't seen her sence th' day her husband fell down th' elevator shaft.'
"I queered myself that day asking questions about Mrs. Whitfield, but I didn't get any satisfaction, so the next day I was back at work, wondering if she'd show up again. Sure enough about the same time—it was about 2 in the afternoon—she comes along quiet and modest as ever and gets into my car. I stopped at ten, and she got out, but when she was gone and I had started the car I looked around and noticed some of the passengers snickering. I think it was the next day that I got into a kind of row with a man who wanted to get off at the fifth floor. She was in the car, and by that time I was getting so I couldn't think of anybody but her. So I carried the old fellow clear up to the eighth floor, and him hollering as if I'd robbed him.
"I stopped at eight and nine, him roasting me all the time, but somehow I clean forgot about letting Mrs.

Whitfield off at ten. I was just topping eleven when I thought of her. You see, I was dead anxious to please her, for besides my connection with the accident, she was such a quiet, uncomplaining little woman that I was more than willing to do what I could for her. So, just as I was topping eleven I thought of her, reversed the lever and looked around expecting to hear her make a ladylike 'kick.'
"But she didn't. Fact is she wasn't in the car. You could have knocked me over with a feather. I stopped at ten and said 'Tenth floor Mrs. Whitfield,' but nobody moved. Then I began to get the shivers. She was there sure as fate when I left eight. I didn't stop till eleven. I hadn't opened the gates, but backed to ten. Then when I looked for her she wasn't among those present. I ran my car to the top and as the last man got out I laid my hand on his arm and says: 'Did you notice that woman with the brown fur coat as we come up?' He said no, but seemed interested. I asked him if he hadn't seen a little woman standing just back of me with a big gray hat and a veil, and where she had left the car, but he swore there had been no such person in the car.
"Now you can't blame me for what I did next," said the elevator boy, looking behind him. "Fact is I went
down with that car, shut the door of it and gave up my job. I knew the name of Whitfield's lawyer, so I went up to his office as fast as my legs could carry me. He knew me right off, for he'd seen me on the witness stand, and the first thing he done was to take me into his private office.
"What's the matter, Blake?" says he.
"I want to get a letter to Mrs. Whitfield,' says I. 'She's haunting my elevator every day like a gost. Now you know I never would have harmed her husband. She ain't doing any good in my elevator and she ain't got any business in the Century Building. But she got me rattled. I ain't fit for work unless she stops coming. She's going to cost me my job. I want to ask her what she——"
"My good fellow,' says the lawyer and I noticed his eyes swelling up as he said it; 'my good fellow, don't you know that Mrs. Whitfield is dead? She died within a week after he was killed. The shock was too much for——"
"Well, sir, I sneaked out of that office like a chicken thief. Explain it? No, I can't explain anything. I don't believe in gosts. But some day, when my nerve comes back I'm going over to the Century Building and get my old car. If she comes again I'll quit again. I'm down at the Montezuma Building now and I'm the slowest and cautiousest man in the cages. No more tragedies for me. Anyhow, the elevators down there are the old style hydraulics."

Beautiful decorated Bee Hives containing a variety of china were occupied by Madams A. Salsburg, M. Simmons, T. Mason and C. Johnson Madams J. Harrison and C. Bramwell. The ladies spaired no pains in making a grand showing, and everybody enjoyed themselves. Each Hive sold quite a bit of china and will make their financial report in the next issue. The B's are alight they never do nothing in halves. Success is the motto. Mr. W. D. Cole was at his best, the solo he sang brought forth roars of applause and encorse. Wm. Mason is O.

Lee's sweet musical voice charmed the audience and held them spell bound, she was assisted by Mr. Dorsey. Mr. Salsburg is O. K. with the guitar, Mrs. O. Howard in her usual way brought beautiful strains of enchanting music from the piano. Every thing was alright. We wonder what the B's will haxe next?
