THE NASHVILLE GLOBE. VOL. III. TO BE DELIVERED BY BISHOP TYREE Committee Has Secured Distinguished Prelate. TO ADDRESS THE GREAT EMAN. GIPATION ASSEMBLAGE. GREENWOOD PARK WILL BE THE MECCA ON AUGUST 8— THOUSANDS WILL THRONG THE BEAUTIFUL BOULEVARDS AND DRIVEWAYS AND LISTEN TO THE ENCHANTING MUSIC AND ELOQUENT FLOW OF ORATORY MANY FEATURES HAVE BEEN ADDED TO ATTRACTIONS MANY VISITORS EXPECTED IN THE CITY—UNIVERSAL EMANCIPATION. The Committee of Arrangements of the Emancipation Celebration to be held August the eighth at Greenwood Park, has secured that matchless orator and distinguished prelate, Bishop Evans Eyree, D. D., LL. D., to deliver the emancipation address. No man could have been secured who is better qualified from every point of view for the momentous undertaking than Bishop Tyree. Born a slave, and being thrown out on his own resources in early boyhood, without the strong arm of a father to beat down the roughness that attends every boy's way in life, and having nothing to sustain him but the prayers of a kind mother and his faith in his Maker, he had to get his experience early in life. So he knows all about the hardships one has to undergo who is poverty-streken and who has a desire to live an upright life. He has lived through all of this and to-day stands out very prominently as an example of the possibilities of the race. Bishop Tyree is better known to the citizens of Nashville than it is possible to be expressed in these columns, and they will hail with delight the announcement that on August the eighth they will have an opportunity to listen to his eloquent words of wisdom as he carries them over the checkered map of the Negro's brief period of freedom. There will be a street parade in the morning as was announced in the last issue of the Globe, which will be composed of the several uniformed companies of the local societies in this city, and the following have sent in their names: Eight military companies will be in line, headed by Company "G," Capt. Henry H. Bowman, commanding. Mt. Hebron Commandery, No. 4, commanded by Capt. A. B. Bradford. Oppollo Commandery, commanded by Capt. J. A. O. Broughton. Patriarchy Commandery, No. 22, commanded by Capt. A. B. Carter. Uniform Rank, K. of P., commanded by Capt. Robt. E. Gee. Uniform Rank, No. 8, K. of P., commanded by Capt J. T. Shelby. Rock City Commandery, headed by Capt. J. R. Reynolds. Tennessee Commandery, headed by Capt. W. M. Kenzer. Captains Council, No. 2, commanded by Capt. J. D. Clemmons. Knights of Wise Men, headed by W.

The dedication of Greenwood Park is an historic event to the Negroes of Nashville. There are many things connected with the causes that led up to its establishment that is unpleasant reading, but the people know what has passed, but prefer to rejoice in the present and hope for the future. It is the consensus of opinion of the people of Nashville that the eighth of August, or some day in the middle of the summer or early in the Fall should be agreed upon by the Negroes throughout the country to celebrate this memorable occasion, and that the celebration should be one in keeping with the magnitude of the day. MEMORIAL CHAPEL FOR WALDEN Suggestion Meets Hearty Approval of Conference. MEMBERS OF MEETING AT MO MINNVILLE HOLD SESSION. The Emancipation Proclamation marked a new era in the history of the American slave—the dawning for which so many tears had been shed and thousands of lives sacrificed: The unborn generations of Negro boys and girls need to be taught what their liberty cost, and no more fitting memento can be left them than a day to celebrate when their minds can be refreshed on this all-important subject. No day is celebrated in America, other than the birth of Christ to which so much importance can be attached. Therefore the imperative need of a universal celebration. DEATH OF MISS MAGGIE KELLY. Miss Maggie E. Kelly, daughter of Prof. and Mrs. J. H. Kelly, of Columbia, surrounded by the members of the family and sorrowing friends, passed peacefully away about 5:30 o'clock, Tuesday afternoon at the residence of her brother, Mr. John H. Kelly, Jr., 653 Bass street. Miss Kelly was 25 years old, and during the short span of life allotted her had attracted by those amiable qualities which she possessed, a large circle of friends extending all over the country. She was very popular in her home city and the other cities where, in recent years, she has been a visitor. Miss Kelly was a graduate of Roger Williams University before the old school building on the Hillsboro Pike was destroyed by fire. After her graduation she began teaching in the city public schools of Columbia, and remained one of the most efficient and beloved members of the corps until her death. At the close of the school session in Columbia this year Miss Kelly attended the commencement of the Knoxville College, returning by Chattanooga and stopping in this city. In this city she was taking a summer course to further fit herself for her chosen profession. The continual strain on the constitution which had already been weakened by a hard winter session of her school, made her an easy victim to the dread typhoid fever (Continued on Page 7.)

E. Church assembled in its regular semi-annual session at 3 o'clock p. m., in Clark Chapel M. E. Church, McMinnville, Tenn., with Rev. W. R. Smith, District Superintendent, presiding. After devotional exercises, the Lord's Supper was administered to forty-two communicants. The roll call showed the majority of pastors and delegates present. The remainder of the afternoon sesfollows: Rev. E. J. Guthrie, Secretary; Rev. J. F. D. Fenell, Statistical Secretary; Rev. B. F. Anderson, Treasurer. At the suggestion of the secretary-elect, Revs. D. T. Burch and T. W. Johnson were elected as his assistants. The remainder of the afternoon session was used in listening to addresses from the following visitors: Rev. S. M. Matthews, of Cedar Lake, Ala.; Rev. G. T. Speals, pastor of Missionary Baptist Church, McMinnville, Tenn.; and Dr. S. P. Livingston, practicing physician of McMinnville, Tenn. At the evening session the Address of Welcome on behalf of McMinnville was delivered by Rev. D. T. Burch, instead of Rev. A. M. Trawick, Jr., who was absent from the city. Rev. T. W. Johnson, of Clark Memorial Church, Nashville, responded in a very appropriate address. Rev, H. E. Erwin, who was appointed to preach the sacramental sermon, was introduced and took for his text Matthew 11:29, 30: "Take my yoke upon you and learn of me, for I am meek and lowly in heart, and ye shall find rest unto your soul." Second Day—Morning Session. Following the devotionals, and the adoption of the minutes of the previous sessions, the District Superintendent, Rev. W. R. Smith, made his report of the district, which showed that he had labored hard and performed his duty as he saw it. The pastors of the following charges reported: Sparta Station, Sparta Circuit, Bon Air, McMinnville Station, McMinnville Circuit, Hillsboro Circuit, Manchester Circuit, Tullahoma station, Salem Circuit, Eagleville Mission, Christiana Circuit, Murfreesboro station, Hubbard Chapel, Clark Memorial of Nashville, Nolensville Station and Smyrna Station. The question as to whether we should have two District Conferences having been submitted to the different Quarterly Conferences of the district was decided in the affirmative. The District Superintendent then announced that the Nashville District would hereafter continue to support two district conferences. Reports of the local preachers from the various charges were heard. The reports showed marked improvement on the part of the brethren reporting. The exhorters made their reports which were encouraging. The afternoon session of the second day was conspicuous for the lecture of Dr. S. P. Livingston along hygienic lines. He took as his subject: "A Pure Soul is Worthy of a Pure Body." His lecture proved to be very interesting and instructive. Dr. Livingston is a graduate of Meharry Medical College and the only Negro practicing physician in this town. He stands well with both races of the town, and has a very lucrative practice. At 8 o'clock the educational program in the interest of Walden University was rendered. T. B. Hardiman, of Nashville, acted as Master of Ceremonies. Addresses were delivered by Mr. W. B. Ward, of Nashville, whose subject was "Know Thyself;" Miss Mamie E. Braden, of Walden University, who spoke on "Higher Education," and Mr. E. E. Gibson, also of Nashville, who espoused the cause of "Loyalty to Our Institutions." Miss Braden proposed that the district do something toward raising funds to establish a Memorial Chapel for Walden University. The idea was heartily approved and an organization was formed known as the "District Conference New Building Fund." The different charges and circuits of the district together subscribed $348 to this fund. This organization elected as its officers: Rev. T. A. Johnson, President; Prof. J. W. Winrow, Vice President; Prof. T. B. Hardiman, Secretary; Mrs. Dr. I. P. Livingston, Assistant Secretary; Miss Mamie E. Braden, Treasurer. The first part of the third day's session was devoted to the hearing of District Stewards and Sunday School Superintendents' reports. The District Conference Epworth League Convention held a very interesting service in the afternoon. Many papers were read on different phases of the Epworth League work. At 8 o'clock p. m., the Missionary Sermon was preached by Rev. F. N. Collier, of Tullahoma. "How to Get Our Best Men to Enter the Ministry and Lemain There," was set forth in a very strong paper by Miss Mamie E. Braden of Walden University. This subject was discussed at great length by the pastors and laymen of the district. Miss Emma T. Chairs, of Nashville, has made quite an impression on the people of McMinnville and delegates as a soloist. The a. m. session of the fourth day was devoted to the reports from the Ladies' Aid Societies and Class Leaders from the charges of the district. The afternoon session was occupied by the Sunday-school Institute. The following program was rendered: Remarks by the President, Rev. H. W. Rucker. Welcome Address—Rev J. S. Nance. Response—Prof. T.

SECTIONS VYING WITH EACH OTHER AS TO WHICH SHOULD SUPPORT THE SCHOOL-OVER ONE THOUSAND DOLLARS LAID ON THE TABLE FOR EDUCATION - MOVEMENT ON FOOT TO RAISE $5,000 - NEGROES IN TENNESSEE AWAKENING TO THE NEEDS OF THE HOUR - ENTHUSIASTIC MEETINGS OF WOMAN'S CONVENTION. The week's work of the twenty-first annual session of the Tennessee Baptist State Convention was concluded Sunday night, although a board meeting was held Monday morning to wind up the financial affairs. The people of Nashville have had an opportunity to see the working force of the Negro Baptists of Tennessee. They were here from the extreme eastern portion of the state, as well as the extreme western portion. These two sections of the state were joined by Middle Tennessee, and as can be seen from the report of each day's sessions the issue and the interest paramount during the entire session was Roger Williams University, which is a synopsis, so far as the Tennessee Baptists are concerned, to education. It seemed that the missionaries, together with the Woman's Auxiliary, had united in order that the cause of education might be given proper consideration. West Tennessee was content to allow Howe Institute of Memphis, which is by far the largest distinctively denominational school at present in the state of Tennessee, and East Tennessee to let Nelson Merry Academy of Jefferson City, remain in the background in order that no obstacle would be put in the way of permanently and financially re-establishing Roger Williams University on a firm basis. At the close of the board meeting Monday morning it was not definitely known just what the results were, although it was rumored that something over $1,500 was raised at this meeting for the maintenance of the school, which, if true, is far from the amount expected. Yet it is to be regretted that the Negro Baptists of Tennessee, in so large a state convention, with nearly three hundred delegates, could not raise $5,000 more to secure a donation of $15,000, which would guarantee a fine dormitory on the grounds. One prominent Baptist in the state convention declared that if a proposition was made to his section of the state for their school, their churches in the city would have pledged $100 or more each and raised the $5,000 within the corporate limits of the city in less than twenty days. He further states that with the twenty-five or more Baptist churches in Nashville, if put to work, should raise at least $3,000 for such a worthy cause. It might be interesting, however, to note the fact that the best of harmony, good feeling and unity of purpose failed to exist in the Baptist ranks of Tennessee, as will be noted from the failure of one of the leading men in the state to stand for re-election as treasurer, and the division of sentiment among the delegates and officers with respect to the handling of certain funds. The decision of the executive board and the stand taken by some members of the board and the convention, it is said, is calculated to injure rather than help the cause that this convention met here to advocate. There was quite an array of talent and dignity in attendance at this state meeting and Nashville succeeded in capturing four important offices in the convention proper, viz.: president, secretary, corresponding secretary and treasurer. It was fairly represented in the Woman's Auxiliary Convention, taking the first vice presidency and the corresponding secretaryship.

Considerable interest was manifested in the report of the Treasurer by all the delegates and visitors, who were anxious to ascertain just how much money had been raised toward the furtherance of the educational work in the State. creating stated nessee of the pawings, v. to the General York. When it was found by the report of receipts and disbursements that the Treasurer had only received $3,884.05, the explanation was necessary that the Executive Board had collected and appropriated all the moneys since August, 1907, and that no account of the same had been turned over to the Treasurer. Dr. Clark maintained that the constitution expressly stated that all money must be paid over to the Treasurer, who was held personally responsible, and that for the sake of a few friends he did not propose to be held responsible for money that had gone through other hands. The discussion that followed this statement was acrimonious. Rev. E W. D. Isaac, of the Board, explained that three times in succession this had been done by the Board, and that by the custom alone it became lawful. Dr. Clark disclaimed any intention of reflecting upon the honesty of the Board, but insisted that while he was Treasurer of the convention the constitutional provisions with reference to the receipt and expenditure of the money must be obeyed. Rev. I. A. Carter, from Knoxville, one of the Vice Presidents of the convention, who was presiding, sustained the explanation offered by Rev. Isaac, and ruled that the Executive Board had a right to receive and appropriate the money, regardless of the Treasurer. At the morning session the principal feature was the annual address by the President, Rev. Wm. Haynes, of Nashville. The session was opened with Scripture reading by Rev. J. M. Riley, of Columbia, and prayer by Rev. William Thomas. Rev. J. B. Spratlin, of Columbia, spoke on "The Bible Idea of System." The following committees were appointed: Temperance—S. T. Eldridge, J. W.

Henderson were introduced to the convention. Evening Session. At the evening session President William Haynes referred to the report of the Treasurer, Dr. C. H. Clark, and resented the statement that the Executive Board had received and appropriated money without the knowledge of the Treasurer. He stated that it was unfair to the Board that a longer discussion of the report had not been allowed, and defended the actions of that body, stating that every cent had been lawfully applied and that he and other members of the Board were ready to account for every cent. He stated that it would have taken considerable time and occasioned much annoyance for the money for Howe Institute and the other institutions to have been sent to Nashville to the Treasurer before it could be used for the purposes of the convention. Considerable time was given to a discussion of the race question, Rev. Sutton E. Grigs, of this city, calling attention to the necessity of winning the hearts and sentiment of the Southern white people. Other addresses were made along this line by Rev. E. W. D. Isaac, who stated that the Negro himself must go to work to create more favorable sentiment for himself; Rev. T. J. Searcy, of Memphis, and others. Rev. Thomas O. Fuller, of Memphis, emphasized the importance of self-help on the part of Negroes in their own education as one of the most potent factors in the matter of creating favorable sentiment and stated that the Negroes of West Tennessee had contributed $3,000 during the past year for erecting new buildings, which amount was conditional to the gift of another $3,000 by the General Education Board of New York. Friday, July 24. Practically all the business of the Baptist State Convention was completed at the sessions held Friday on the campus of Roger Williams University. The reports of the General Superintendent of missions and the district missionaries; the reports of the Presidents of the three educational institutions, an address by Rev. Sutton E. Griggs, and the election of officers completed the day's work on the part of the convention officials and delegates. To these events the discussion of the tilt between the Treasurer of the convention and the members of the Executive Board added to the interest of the day. On the one hand loud and determined denunciation of the course followed by the Executive Board in handling the convention money was heard, while on the other the friends of individual members of the Board sought to strengthen the position taken by the Board and the President. A large number of the delegates to the convention agree with the position taken by Dr. Clark, and if the matter again comes up for consideration another spirited debate is expected. Missionary Reports. At Roger Williams University Friday morning the reports from the missionary of West Tennessee, Rev. William Collier; that of the missionary for East Tennessee, Rev. J. M. Thompson, and the report of the General Superintendent of Missions, Rev. E. M. Lawrence, were read. The reports of the educational institutions were read at the afternoon session, before an audience of more than 1,000. Prof. J. W. Johnson, President of Roger Williams University, presented the report of that institution. Rev. Thomas O. Fuller, President of Howe Institute, and Prof. G. N. Bowen, of Nelson Merry Academy, Jefferson City, read their annual reports. Dr. Fuller reported for Howe Institute a collection of $3,000 during the year for building purposes, which would enable the institution to receive the gift of another $3,000 from the General Education Board of New York. Addresses of interest were delivered by Rev. George Sale, Superintendent of Education of the American Baptist Home Mission Society, who came all the way from New York to attend the session of the Baptist State Convention. Dr. Sale has been interested in Negro education for a number of years, having been for several terms president of Atlanta Baptist College, a Negro institution of learning in Atlanta, Ga. He assured his hearers yesterday that the American Baptist Home Mission Society was interested in the educational welfare of the Negroes of Tennessee, and that if they persevered in raising the conditional $5,000 the $15,000 from the board would be forthcoming. Rev. Sutton E. Griggs, pastor of the First Baptist Church, East Nashville, delivered a strong address. Dr. R. H. Boyd, Secretary of the National Baptist Publishing Board, delivered a brief address. The corner-stone for the girls' dormitory was laid with appropriate ceremonies. The convention elected the following officers for the ensuing year: President, William Haynes, Nashville; First Vice President, L. E. Carter, Knoxville; Second Vice President, R. J. Petty, Memphis; Third Vice President, H. C. Swayne, McKenzie; Corresponding Secretary, E. M. Lawrence, Nashville; Treasurer, A. M. Townsend, M. D., Nashville; Statistician, J. Thomas Turner. The Secretary of the Convention was elected the first day, W. S. Thompson, of Nashville. Members of the Executive Board: E. W. D. Isaac, Nashville; L. Drane, Chattanooga; J. C. Lott, Nashville; T. J. Searcy, Memphis; C. A. Bell, Chattanooga; E. J. Williams, Memphis; A. W. Porter, Nashville; D. P. Pearson, Murfreesboro; T. J. Goodall, Columbia; G. B. Taylor, C. H. Clark, Nashville. The convention decided to hold its next session, beginning Tuesday before the fourth Sunday in July, 1908, in Memphis. Rev. D. P. Pearson, from Columbia, preached last night and his sermon was intensely doctrinal. The work Saturday was mostly routine work, hearing the reports of committees, and addresses by the general officers. Rev. W. S. Ellington, D. D., spoke on the Sundayschool work, and Dr. R. H. Boyd on "Our Publishing House." Services were held in all the Baptist churches Sunday, but the center of interest was around the Spruce Street Baptist Church, the seat of the Convention. The convention adjourned Sunday night. Saturday. July 25. The feature of the session Saturday was the report of the committee on state of the country. The meeting was opened with Scripture reading by Rev. J. Swift, of Tullahoma, and prayer by Rev. R. W. Winston. Rev. W. S. Ellington, D. D., the editorial secretary of the National Baptist Publishing Board, spoke on the subject, "Sunday School Work," and gave a splendid exposition of the character of literature used by the National Baptist Convention.

Baptist Home Mission Society of New York, was called upon to speak, and he stated that he felt proud to know that the Negro Baptists of Tennessee were making a name for themselves by rebuilding Roger Williams University, and above all, to be owned and controlled by them, while the Home Mission Society was ever ready to help them in any undertaking for missions and education. Dr. B. G. Gordon, pastor of St. John A. M. E. Church; Dr. S. W. Crosthwaite, and Rev. G. L. Imes, pastor of Howard Chapel Congregational Church, were introduced, and made a few brief remarks. The different committees made their reports, and all were replete with high hopes for the success of the convention in the prosecution of its work for missions and education and the uplift of the race, morally and religiously. A mass meeting will be held this afternoon at 3 o'clock at the Spruce Street Baptist Church. The committee on divine services reported where the ministers will preach Sunday. The Sunday-school at Spruce Street Church to be conducted by Rev. Henry Allen Boyd. The business part of the convention closed with the Saturday afternoon session. Sunday night the convention will come to a final close by extending the parting hand at the Spruce Street Baptist Church, singing the familiar song, "God be with you till we meet again," to convene in 1909 in Memphis in the Metropolitan Baptist Church, of which Rev. T. J. Searcy is pastor. The executive board held a meeting Saturday evening and wound up the business of the convention, but will meet again after the mass meeting this afternoon for final action. Sunday, July 26. Religious exercises at the leading churches of the city were held in the morning and evening, and a mammoth mass meeting at the Spruce Street Baptist Church in the afternoon, marked the close of the State Baptist Convention, which has been in session in this city during the past week. Eloquent and forceful sermons were preached by Rev. C. P. M. Bigbee, of Elkton, Ky., fraternal delegate from the General Association of Kentucky Baptists, and by Rev. Thomas O. Fuller, of Memphis, President of Howe Institute. Rev. T. O. Fuller, before a large audience at the Mt. Olive Baptist Church preached Sunday morning from the text, "What manner of man is this, that even the wind and sea obey him?" Rev. T. J. Searcy, of Memphis, was the principal speaker at the mass-meeting held at the Spruce Street Baptist Church Sunday afternoon, and touched in his address of some length on various elements of the race question. Addresses were delivered by Rev. E. W. D. Isaac, Editor of the National Baptist Union, Nashville, Rev. L. A. Carter, of Knoxville, Dr. C. V. Roman, Rev. S. E. Griggs, and others. Considerable business necessary to wind up the affairs of the convention was transacted Sunday night at the Spruce Street Baptist Church, after the sermon by Rev. E. M. Lawrence, State Superintendent of Missions. Mr. President, Officers, Members of the Tennessee Baptist State Convention and Friends: On June 15, 16, and 17 the first effort of the ladies of East Nashville to raise a purse of one hundred dollars for Roger Williams University was begun with a "street fair" on Webster street. From that project the handsome sum of $126 was realized and the neat sum of $63.30 was cleared and placed in the One Cent Savings Bank. Since that time the raising of the balance ($36.70) has not been an easy task; but by persistent labor and uniring effort on the part of a few East Nashville ladies who, assisted by their husbands, have aided me in every movement that I have suggested and urged, and the hearty support received from the good people of Clarksville, Winchester and my many friends of Greater Nashville, I am delighted to present you with this pittance as a mark of appreciation and deep interest which is felt by the citizens of East Nashville in having Roger Williams located on the east bank of dear old Cumberland. I would not fail to mention the fact that this purse has been contributed to in one way or another by boys, girls, ladies and gentlemen from all denominations. The good people of Payne Chapel, Lane Tabernacle and Braden's Chapel have given their hearty support, by contributing money, time and use of their chairs, etc., during our several entertainments, also by freely patronizing them. To them I am deeply indebted. Just here, I cannot feel it out of place to pause for a moment, and from the utmost recesses of my heart thank the Fifth Ward Baptist Church, of Clarksville, and its never-tiring young pastor, who so willingly has aided me from time to time. Especially in this movement I am pleased to say that $9.17 was donated by him and his friends and congregation and I would that special credit be given him and his church. It will also be remembered that on Jan. 30, 1908, amid rain, sleet and cold, a party of "Willing Workers" left Nashville and reported to Rev. Mr. Goodall and his big-free-hearted people for a concert that same night for the benefit of Roger Williams. The party was received cordially, housed and comforted, and as a result of that effort $28.10 was realized and presented to the Treasurer of Roger Williams University through the Busy Bee Club. Then again mention is due Rev. and Mrs. D. A. Townsend, also Mrs. Gertrude Cooley, all of Winchester, who, through their liberality aided to the amount of $6.39 towards this purse. Besides these mentioned, to all the visiting delegates who have not passed me by unnoticed and to all my friends from all the churches, I hereby extend my deepest gratitude for every cent, every little deed, and every word of encouragement; and now to the President and the Tennessee Baptist State Convention, on behalf of the ladies of East Nashville, I present to you a purse of $100.15. Yours for R. W. U., MRS. A. M. TOWNSEND, 614 Webster street, E. Nashville, Tenn. IN MEMORIAM. On Saturday, July 18, just as the curtains of day were being lifted, the Angel of Death swept through our neighborhood and claimed as its victim Rev. Caleb Jarret, a man of strong, sterling, Christian qualities. He was a member of the First Baptist Church, and also pastor of Cedar Grove Baptist Church. It can be said by all who came in contact with Rev. Mr. Jarret that he was a living example of Christianity, always cheerful to his friends and in his home, and that he has now entered into that rest which remaineth for the followers of Christ; entered into that fellowship of the just made perfect unto God. We can but say in the demise of Rev. Mr. Jarret, that we have lost a soldier from our ranks who will long be remembered. But we must bow in humble submission to the will of the Father who, seeing the end from the beginning, makes no mistakes. ffOice: 4418 Cedar St. Office Hours: 10 a. m. to 12 'Phone Main 4150-Y 2:30 to 4:30 p. m. 6:30 to 7:30 p. m.

TAFT NOTIFIED. The average public schoolboy in delivering his graduating speech presents comparatively about one ton of praise to his teacher, one pound to the Board of Education and an ounce to the parents—all for the making of him what he is. Mr. Taft's speech of acceptance reminds one of the graduating schoolboy. There is so much of his teacher and "My policies," while the republican congress and the masses were scarcely lauded for anything. Barring this, Mr. Taft's speech on the whole is a strong presentation of the republican position on the issues before the people. He handled the trust and injunction planks with a broadness that leaves no doubts as to his views on these questions. Then, too, his views are so fair to both capital and labor and to the large corporations obeying the law and the small manufacturer likewise obeying the law, that they will merit if not meet the approval of every man who believes in even-handed justice. On the Negro question, Mr. Taft placed himself square upon his party's platform. We quote in full that portion of his speech referring to the Negro. Under the head of "Rights and Progress of the Negro," he spoke as follows: "The Republican platform refers to those amendments to the constitution that were passed by the Republican party for the protection of the negro. The negro, in the forty years since he was freed from slavery, has made remarkable progress. He is becoming more and more a valuable member of the communities in which he lives. The education of the negro is being expanded and improved in every way. The best men of both races, with the North as well as at the South, ought to rejoice to see growing up among the Southern people an influential element disposed to encourage the Negro in his hard struggle for industrial independence and assured political status. The Republican platform, adopted in Chicago, explicitly demands justice for all men without regard to race or color and just as explicitly declares for the enforcement and without reservation in letter in spirit of the 13th, 14th and 15th amendments to the constitution. It is needless to state that I stand with my party squarely on that plank in the platform, and believe that equal justice to all men and the fair and impartial enforcement of these amendments is in keeping with the real American spirit of fair play." Mr. Taft did not mention Brownsville. No one expected him to do so. In the main he confined his remarks to the republican platform bringing in occasionally democratic platform planks to show what to him seems their inconsistency or impracticability. THE NASHVILLE GLOBE. FR1DAY. JULY 31. 1908. Mr. Taft's speech of acceptance may not have converted any of the doubting Thomases, but it certainly did not increase the number of his enemies. THE INDEPENDENCE LEAGUE. Seven national conventions have named candidates for President. The republicans selected William H. Taft, of Ohio; the democrats, William Jennings Bryan, of Nebraska; the independence league, Thomas L. Hisgen, of Massachusetts; the prohibitionists, Eugene Chapin, of Illinois; the socialists, Eugene V. Debs, of Illinois; the people's or populist, party, Thomas Watson, of Georgia. The socialist-labor convention, composed of less than one hundred delegates, and each delegate an orator of the first magnitude, socialist-labor standard, met in New York and named a candidate for the chief executive office of the nation who is serving a term in a western prison for the crime of murder. He declined the nomination. Later another candidate was found whose record was so unsavory. The campaign when it begins will in all probability narrow itself down to three dominant parties. Here and there sporadic interest will be centered in one of the lesser parties, like Thomas Watson's fight for Georgia, but there will be little interest in the other parties until after the election. It will be then that we will be able to know the growth of socialism, radicalism, teetotalism, and just plain crankism. We seriously doubt if Mr. Hearst's Independence League will carry a single state, yet it is conceivable that in the larger cities it will materially decrease the vote for William Jennings Bryan. Mr. Hearst, with all the sensationalism of his "yellow journals," is a "fine fellow" with labor in the cities where he conducts his papers. He is able, he is capable, he is fearless, he is radical and with the powerful influence exerted by his newspapers, he is liable to play havoc with the Bryan vote in many of the doubtful states. Of the seven candidates so far nominated, the vote controlled by the nominee of the Independence League will be the cynosure of all eyes. PLATFORM INCONSISTENCY. Not a platform maker of all the conventions, so far as we have been enabled to learn, has dared to tackle the Brownsville affair. Not but one national platform has even dared to mention the Negro's name. But three of them have made the following pledge, with a change of verbiage in each case, of course, which we quote from the platform of the Independence League: American citizens abroad, whether native born or naturalized, and of whatever race or creed, must be secured in the enjoyment of all rights and privileges under our treaties and wherever such rights are withheld by any country on the ground of race or religious faith, steps should be taken to secure the removal of such unjust discrimination." This ingenious play for votes by all the parties would be possibly carried out to its letter by any one of the parties successful in the election if the citizen will but only stay out of the confines of his native country. But what becomes of one's rights if he but move from one section of our common country? They immediately become lost in that hazy twilight zone, which Mr. Bryan says does not exist between state and federal rights. Not one party is willing to declare and live up to its declaration that a citizen of our country "whether native born or naturalized, and of whatever race or creed, must be secured in the enjoyment of all rights and privileges" guaranteed them by the constitution, in all parts of our common country. Party pledges are often not worth the paper upon which they are written. The following news item bore no "scare head." It was not given to the Associated Press. Only one of the local dailies so far as we have been able to ascertain published the item. "McEwen, Tenn., July 22.—(Special.)—The citizens of Gorman and vicinity are wrought up over an attempt made on a 14-year-old girl at that place last week. The young lady was walking the public road in company with her brother, younger than herself, when she claims she met Willie Hightower, son of J. H. Hightower, of that place. She charges that he made a proposal to her and followed it up by catching hold of her and tearing her clothes. Her screams were heard by an old Negro some distance from the place and brought him to her rescue. He yelled before he reached the place, and when the old darky yelled the girl's assailant took to his heels. The Hightower boy has disappeared from the neighborhood. The young lady is about 14 years old, while the boy is 20. Both are of prominent families in that neighborhood. A writ was sworn out against Hightower by the girl's mother, the father being sick in bed. The young man, when last heard of, was at a show on Blue Creek, the night after the incident." Why, oh, why were all the descriptive adjectives so frequently used in cases like this left out? Where were the "best citizens," that public sentiment could not be brought to a fever heat? Where! Oh, where! is the praise that should have been bestowed upon the brave, fearless Negro who frustrated the "fiend's designs?" Verily the lynching curse is a "peculiar institution," which only men born under certain conditions may fathom The prison investigations being made by the state legislative committee of Georgia is bringing to light a condition that has been known to exist in some places for many years. The South maintains that the wholesale peonage charges made against certain states could not be sustained and has fought with vigor those who would impugn its good name by such charges. But what can be said in extenuation of the brutalities committed by the whipping bosses in the Empire State of the South? What barbarisms were committed under legal sanction of the lease system? It is enough to make every native Southerner, be he black or white, hang his head with shame for the excesses committed. The lease system as practiced in Georgia is bad. The one ray of hope is that Georgia is behind other Southern states in this matter, and the present investigation will in all probability result in the final wiping out of the system in vogue. Secret societies and men representing them in an official capacity should avoid politics when attending their meetings. As private citizens they are entitled to their own political views and no one will gainsay them that right. But when they attempt to voice the sentiments of an Order towards a candidate at a regular meeting, they are going beyond the pale of their fraternal law and setting a precedent that may some day bob up like the pandora box to their extreme discomfiture. Fraternal societies are organized as a rule to dispense charity. To make them the football of politics is a short-sighted policy which some day may prove detrimental. The Independence League took a firm stand to keep the dissatisfied colored brother from voting for its candidates. it tied John Temple Graves to the tail-end of its presidential kite. Graves will be remembered with Hoke Smith and the Atlanta News as the principal causes of the Atlanta Massacre. Then, again, Graves, among his many vagaries, is credited with seeing numerous and sundry Negro spooks that threaten the life of the country. Occasionally there breaks into the local press men who are so basically ignorant upon the question of education that it would be folly to attempt a serious answer. Let them stew in their own grease. They are only here for a spell and then they pass where all things are made plain so that even the fool may not err. The "lily whites" are searching the tall timbers for a suitable candidate. One faction says Tillman will run; the other is after Asbury Wright, of Rockwood. It does not matter much whom they select—the gubernatorial election is decided now. More homes, better homes, larger homes are more important than who will be the next Governor of Tennessee. Clean premises not only improves the looks of the home but lessens the chances for disease.

"Negro Education." To The Nashville Globe. Some self-appointed critic, writing in the July 28th issue of The American, under the caption "Negro Education," makes a poor and miserable attempt to show that Negro education has been an utter failure. The argument presented was the limpest, the lamest and the most ridiculous that ever appeared in print. It was nothing short of the greatest possible exhibition of ignorance, coupled with meanness and misrepresentation. This would be critic in his piny paragraphs, which doubtless he hungered to see in print, overleaps himself in his frenzy of madness at what education is really doing for the Negro. He is inconsistent to the point of silliness, when what the Negro has accomplished since 1865, when he was turned loose without a cent or a foot of land and ignorant, and 1908, when he is the worthy possessor of hundreds of millions of money, homes and landed property and the liberal patron of education, is taken into consideration. Calamity howlers may rack their empty brains and exhaust their limited vocabulary for suitable invective or abuse to hurl at the Negro for his indomitable push, but sensible people will take no stock in their wild and mad utterances, silly and impotent rantings. Charitable people are more disposed to pity the man who scribbled the communication under discussion than to blame him. Blame only attaches to a man when he is fully cognizant of the fact that what he says about another is libelous; but, on the other hand, when he makes statements that are neither sensible nor reasonable, he is generally considered as a sort of harmless crank that, having nothing to say, says something, anyhow. Any one who read the communication in the American could not have had the least respect for what it contained, nor the honesty of the purpose for which it was written. It is said that knowledge is power; if this is true, then education is its greatest lever or handmaiden as is evidenced by the universal as well as special interest bestowed upon it. Knowledge that has the advantage of education is the greatest force in the world. Education has been the uplifting and developing power of every people since the world began; then, by what process of reasoning can any sane man arrive at the conclusion that it is detrimental to the Negro people, and that, too, in the face of what they have done in the past forty years. When Brutus chided Cassius for refusing to lend him money to pay his legions, the latter denied doing so, and exclaimed: "He was but a fool who brought my answer back." And he who denies the wholesome effect of education upon the Negro is a fit yolk fellow to the messenger who passed between Brutus and Cassius, whom the latter denounced as being a fool for misrepresenting him. The Negro has been misrepresented. Read the following words and judge of the intent and purpose of the writer of them: "Booker Washington says his people are the laborers of the South, and as such they should be educated. I doubt whether he could find in all the South a half dozen of his graduates hired out on farms as laborers. All educated negroes refuse to hire out to work on farms or anywhere else where it requires hard labor. That being true, negro education is a failure." There you have the soul of the man in cold type, and it is not big enough to embrace with patience the achievements of his colored fellow-citizens. He will go a long, long time before he will see a retrograde movement on the part of the Negro with reference to education. He had as well prepare himself to see greater things done by the Negro in that particular department of endeavor. The graduates whom Booker T. Washington is turning out from his institution are giving almost without an exception a good account of themselves as master workmen in their various avocations. So, also, are the educated men and women from the other institutions of learning in this country.

Admission 15 cents. furnishing the leaders in all the departments of racial activities, just as the educated of other races are doing. There are too few educated Negroes and too much elevated or specific work to do for them to leave the universities, colleges, seminaries and high schools, and return to menial occuna tions just to satisfy or comport with what some man or men would be pleased to consider as a useful and profitable education. If rascality is a product of education and that rascality is to be measured by the millions which are stolen (pardon, the more classical word embezzled should have been used) every year, then what people in this country have the temerity to cast the first stone at the Negro people? A half dozen white men every year misappropriate more money than all of the ten million Negroes. If there are any who would put themselves to the trouble, if they so desired, would not need to leave the corporate limits of this city to see that all those who break the laws of health by carousal and debauchery are not Negroes; that all who listen to the sirenic voice of her of whom Solomon spoke, whose ways lead down to death and whose steps take hold on hell are not Negroes. Yet to read a few little lapsed, maudlin paragraphs by some little fellow who hungers to see himself in print, and who always hops upon the Negro, one would be led to believe that only Negroes break the laws of health by dissipation. But such an one should be forced to scribble out his "plunder" behind the closed door of some friendly asylum. --- The Negro is educating himself and has been doing so for some time past. Arkansas passed a bill not a hundred years ago to run Negro schools on money accruing from their own taxes, but, on investigation, those noble (?) legislators found out that Negro schools would run 8 or 9 months on their own school tax, and thousands of dollars of their money which had gone to lengthen the schools of the whites would be cut off, and they fell over each other in their hurry to repeal the act. The bill was passed and repealed during the term of the same legislature. Some fellow offered a similar bill a few years ago in the Texas legislature, but it was smothered by the men of that body who "knew things" before that worthy could say "scat." The Negro, like other men, knows the value of education, and he is fostering it in every part of the country in a most liberal manner, despite the fact that now and then some little fellow goes into print that education is injuring him rather than doing him any good.

We have now on exhibition four different sizes of beautiful colored or Negro dolls, which we shall offer to parents for their children during the next six months. These dolls are being offered as a result of a great demand that has been made for them. The people now want their girl children to have something that will come nearer representing the race. Many of them have declared that if they could get a colored doll to give their child they would do so. The opportunity is now offered. They can be had at a reasonable price. They are on exhibition at the Nashville Globe office, 447 Fourth avenue, North, and at the National Baptist Publishing Board, 521-523 Second avenue, North. A letter addressed to the Doll Department at either place, sending in an order, will be promptly attended to or those who desire to see these dolls can call at either place. They will be shown dolls and given the prices. It is absolutely necessary to place orders in time, as it will take about sixty days to import a supply of these beautiful toys. Every Negro child in Nashville would appreciate one of these articles. The dolls have eyes that open and close, and flexible limbs. They are beautiful in complexion, they are in four sizes, from twelve to twenty-six inches. The prices are from $1.75 to $5.25. Call at once and see them, then place your order for the holidays.

On account of the Baptist State Convention being in session in Nashville last Sunday most of the Sundayschools in the city put on an extra appearance. The usual amount of interest, however, prevailed at Mt. Olive. The classes, while not as full as heretofore, were well attended, and especially was this so by the visitors. Among those who attended Sunday-school on Sunday morning were Mrs. Porter, of Memphis, Tenn.; Mrs. Shaw, of Tullahoma, and Miss Sanders, one of the city teachers of Memphis. The plans now under way include the organization of the school into four distinct departments, viz.: the primary department, with a principal and assistant teachers; the intermediate department, which will take in a great number of scholars not enrolled in the primary department, and will receive first those who are promoted from the primary department; then the philatites organization, which will include most of the young ladies from the ages of eighteen years up. The organization proper will take in the twenty-eight members of class No. 16. Each young lady has already begun work soliciting members for this organization. To become a member it is not necessary to be a regular attendant at Sunday-school. This class has adopted for its emblem an imitation gold pin with the word "Philathea" over the top, No. 16 in the middle, and "class" under the bottom. Last of all will be the adult department on the baracca class, which organization begins with class No. 14, which already has a membership of thirty four men. An effort will be made to maket he number one hundred. FALSE REPORT. Mr. T. Leach wishes to correct the false rumor concerning the mental condition of his particular friend and former teacher, Dr. R.

Mrs. Mary Lamotte, of Clarksville, addressed the Sunday-school last Sunday. The children were very much pleased with the instructions given. MAIL CLERK REINSTATED. Mr. T. S. Cooper, a clerk of the Railway Mail Service, who was suspended some time ago on account of complaints from a small town in Alabama, and was recently acquitted of the charge, has been reinstated in the service. Mr. Cooper began his regular work this week on the Nashville-Montgomery Division. The an- nouncement of the reinstatement will be pleasing to those who have kept informed as to the case. The foundation of the charges was clearly that of color prejudice, and that those who attempted to force him from the service have failed will be a source of much joy to those who believe that merit should win. DEATH OF MISS KELLY. (Continued from Page 1.) which was the cause of her death. The remains were carried to Columbia Wednesday afternoon. The funeral obsequies were held from the St. Paul A. M. E. Church, Rev. S. J. Howard, the pastor, officiating. He was assisted by Bishop Evans Tyree. TO OUR FRIENDS. Again our little family has been invaded and Death has claimed its own. For a short time Maggie was a great sufferer, and on Tuesday, July 28, at 5:25 p. m., her soul passed to God. "Life's fitful scene is o'er, She sleeps peacefully— Safe in the arms of Jesus; Safe in his gentle breast." We have no words that can adequately express our deep sense of appreciation to so many friends that have paid us their respects and given every evidence of that love and kindly consideration in our terrible hour. May God be most gracious unto you; may His providence ever attend you, and his love and mercy never depart from you. The frequent calls at our home, at 653 Bass street; the tender words of love and sympathy, all attest the high respect in which our loving daughter was universally held. But it is our comfort to know that she is at rest. We are grateful to our Heavenly Father who has afflicted us as seemmest best, for "Whom the Lord loveth he chasteneth, and scourgeth every son whom he receiveth." With most grateful hearts to Him and tender thanks to our friends, we are MRS. A. M. KELLY, J. H. KELLY. WEEK END PIT CLUB.

COMM VESSELS WITH THE THE most sacred ordinance that can be observed by all churches is that known as the Lord's Supper or, in other words, Sacrament. We do not think it is in keeping with these sacred ordiances of the Lord's Supper in church now-a-days to try to admin-ister it with the proper vessels. They can have them made out of the best grade of guardruple-plated table silverware if they desire them. The Church Supply Department of the National Baptist Publishing Board has just received from their factory a new lot of this high-class ware, and would take pains in showing them to any one. The Prices are Within Reach of All and Terms are Reasonable. No church ought to be willing to use glass dishes or the like for these ordinances when they can have the best grade of silver at moderate prices. FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CALL OR WRITE THE CHURCH SUPPLY DEPARTMENT OF THE 523 SECOND AVENUE A QUARDRUPLE-PLATED COMMUNION SET. SPORT. Johnson to Meet Ed Martin. New York, July 29.—Finding it hard to get on a fight in England, Jack Johnson has agreed to take on Denver Ed Martin, the colored fighter of this country, and big Ed will sail for the other side in a week to clinch the match. The fight will probably be fought at the National Sporting Club of London in September, as Matchmaker Bettinson is anxious to put on big men at his first show when the club resumes its boxing entertainments. Purse for Champion and Jack Johnson. Ely, Nev., July 29.—It was announced yesterday that $30,000 was pledged at a meeting held here between Tex Rickard and a number of prominent men to secure a fight between Jack Johnson and Tommy Burns, the heavy-weight pugilists, to be held in Ely on Thanksgiving day. Nelson and Gans Fight. San Francisco, July 29.—James Coffroth last night arranged for a forty-five round bout between Joe Gans and Battling Nelson, to take place on the afternoon of September 9 at the Mission Street pavilion. According to the articles 70 per cent of the gate receipts will go to the fighters, 60 per cent of that to the winner and 40 to the loser. ANDERSON INDUSTRIAL SOCIAL CLUB. The Anderson Industrial Social Club, composed of ladies who reside in the North Nashville section of the city, recently enjoyed a pleasant afternoon at the residence of Mrs. Amanda Patterson. Various kinds of games were enjoyed and a collation was served. The following officers were elected: Mrs. Cornelia Young, President; Mrs. Lizzie Carter, Vice President; Mrs. Amanda Patterson, Chaplain; Mrs. Bessie Gordon, Secretary; Mrs. Janie King, Assistant Secretary; Mrs. M. S. Brown, Treasurer. Two visitors were present, Mesdames Nancie DeGraffenried and Jennie Jones. THIRD QUARTERLY CONFERENCE AT SMITHVILLE. The Smithville circuit, pastored by Rev. E. E. Keys, is in excellent condition. Money raised for the quarter, $293.32; accessions, 3; probationers, 2. Our Presiding Elder, Rev. T. W. Haigler, D. D., preached four very able sermons, which were food for the mind, and inspiration for the soul. Dr. Haigler organized the Women's Mite Missionary Society and the Allen Christian Endeavor League Sabbath. Rev. E. E. Keys, pastor, and Rev. T. W. Haigler, D. D., our Presiding Elder, are much beloved, and are achieving wonderful success on this circuit. The people came to the quarterly conference from far and near, and were delighted with the services. Rev. Mr. Keys and Rev. Dr. Haigler visited the public school at Smithville and at Dowelltown and made speeches to the children. MEMORIAL CHAPEL FOR WAL- DEN. (Continued from Page 1.) The Purpose of the Sunday School Board—F. A. Morford. The following officers were elected for the next ensuing year: T. B. Hardiman, President, Nashville; Rev. F. N. Collier, Vice President, Tullahoma; Miss Daisy Killingsworth, Secretary, Sparta; Mrs. S. F. Smith, Treasurer, Snyrna. The Conference social to be given by the hospitable people of McMinnville on Saturday evening was looked forward to with great anxiety. Rev. D. T. Burch busied himself no little to see that all the delegates were comfortably located. Most of our people in McMinnville are owners of their homes, and they are very nicely constructed homes. This can be accounted for when we consider the good feeling existing between the races. The District Conference closed its session Sunday evening, July 26. The District Superintendent, Rev. W. R. Smith, is bringing the Nashville District to the front. OSBORN—BUCHANON. Beautiful in its solemnization and of much social interest was the marriage of Miss Lizzie E. Buchanon and Mr. William Osborn, of Gallatin, Tenn., Monday evening, July 20, at the home of the bride's sister, Mrs. Major Campbell, of Sixth avenue, North, in the presence of fifty guests. The ceremony was performed by Rev. I. J. Edwards and the musicians were Miss Blanche Davis at the piano and Mr. William Smith, vocalist, who sang, "Love me, and the world is mine;" "Some day when dreams come true," before the ceremony. The house was artistically decorated with garlands of the green, ferns and palms. The wedding took place before an altar in the parlor window. The procession was led by the maid of honor, Miss Maggie Lee, and the groom. Following entered the bride with the nest man, Mr. John R. Robinson. The bride looked lovely in her full bridal costume of white batiste princess trimmed with medallions and lace, carrying a bouquet of bridal roses and white carnations. The maid of honor was handsomely attired in white silk with white lace trimming, and carried a bouquet of carnations. An ice course in pink and white was served. The bride and groom received one of the largest collections of presents of the season. They left July 21, accompanied by the best man, the maid of honor, the groom's sister, and Mrs. Sallie E. Goodall, for Gallatin, their future home, where they were entertained by the groom's parents, Mr. and Mrs. Henry Osborn, Sr. PLEASANTLY ENTERTAINED. Mr. and Mrs. George Holmes, of 910 Shankland street, entertained Mr. and Mrs. S. M. Brown, of Muskogee, and Mrs. N. J. Anderson at dinner July 23. A delightful menu was served. N SETS.
