Mr. Park Marshall, Chairman of the Commissioners of Elections, has issued the following which should be read carefully: "To the Judges of Election—When a man offers to vote on his property qualification on the city bonds and franchise questions and you find him qualified, let him first fold his ballot backward at the place just below the name of the last candidate, so as to show the judges all that part of the ballot where the names of the candidates appear, and show the judges that no name is marked; but no part of the rest of the ballot shall be shown. Let the ballot then be refolded in the usual manner and voted without being taken away from the immediate presence of the judges. "At the same time let the clerks enter the name of the voter, and write after his name the words "City Only." "No one voting on his property qualifications can vote for any candidate at the same voting place. Some Laws on the Subject. "First—No person living in any ward of the city and being a general voter in any ward, can vote in any ward on property qualification, for he should vote in his residence ward on his general qualifications. Nor can anyone vote in the city on property qualification unless he be a resident of Davidson County for six months, and of the state twelve months. "Second—The voter must be duly registered on his property qualification, and can vote in only one ward. "Third—He must have owned real estate twelve months in the ward when and where he votes. "Fourth—He must have paid poll tax as other voters must. "Fifth—If you mark 'voted' on his tax receipt, add the words 'City Only.' "Sixth—If a man vote in the city on his property qualification he may afterwards vote at his country precinct for the candidates; and if a voter first vote at his country precinct for the candidates, he may afterwards vote in the city on his property qualifications. The elections on bonds and franchise on the one hand, and for candidates on the other, are different elections, and for different purposes, though held at the same time. "Seventh—It is not unlawful to show an unmarked ballot to the judges in a case like this one. "PARK MARSHALL, "Chairman Commissioners of Election" To the White Voters of Davidson County. The interest of Nashville and Davidson County is the thought that is foremost in the minds of the people at this particular time. The Negro citizens are especially solicitous that the white people of this county continue to give the mtheir support in the moral uplift of the race. They believe that the elimination of Black Bottom will remove great evils, crimes, temptations and a spot from the city that breeds crime and criminals. Hence, we appeal to the whites to solidly support the proposition that is to be decided by the voters next Tuesday for the elimination of Black Bottom. We are further asking that you give to the Negro youth an opportunity for him to acquire an industrial education. We want our people to train the hand as well as the head. We especially appeal to you for your support on the Negro Normal and Agricultural Bond Issue of $25,000.00 proposed by the City Council. The county has already voted $60,000.00, the Negro citizens have raised their pro rata. The Morrell Fund awaits this cause, and if the $25,000.00 is authorized by Nashville, this Industrial School for Negroes will be located in Davidson County, bringing thousands of dollars to the merchants and business men. We hope that in helping our people the white voters in the city and county do so for common justice as well as for the uplift of our Greater Nashville. The vote that you give at this election for either of these two propositions will be a personal favor to the Negroes of this county as well as a duty you owe to see to it that our city is made more beautiful, pure and less sinful.

The game between Pearl High School and Burrell Academy last Saturday sprung the second great surprise of the season and showed conclusively that football is like other athletics, a game in which the honors change. A large crowd was on hand to cheer the high school boys on to victory, but to no avail, Burrell was there with the goods, and while the Pearl boys deserve great praise for the fight they put up and the brilliant game they played, it must be admitted by all that in the Burrell eleven they met their superiors. The game was replete with spectacular playing on the part of both teams and as exciting as it was, there was none of that ruffian spirit exhibited. Whn the smok of battle MISSISSIPPI PYTHIANS WIN. Greenville, Miss.—In a sweeping decision handed out by the court of this county the Negro Knights of Phthias of the state of Mississippi are entitled to and have a right to maintain an organization known as the Knights of Pythias, jurisdiction of North America in this state. The Supreme Attorney, Sir Knight F. A. T. Watkins, gave out these facts this week after having spent about ten days here in the interest of the legal matters pertaining to the State Grand Lodge, which it is his duty to look into for the Supreme Lodge.

Doxey and little Pauline, of Henderson, Ky., visited their sisters, Mrs. Irene Doxey Robinson and Miss Alice L. Doxey, last Sunday. A three-course dinner was served in their home to the following ladies and gentleman: Mr. and Mrs. F. B. Doxey and little Pauline, Mrs. Carrie White Brown, Mr. John E.

Jordan Stockard, and "Hallowen" by George Frazier. Discussions by others. The club was very highly honored by the presence of two visiting friends, Messrs. Porter and Williams, the former very prominent as the president of the Y. M. C. A., and the latter also connected with the same association. Both offered some very valuable and inspiring advice. The next meeting, which will be given to the acceptance of new members and also a lengthy program will be with Elmer D. Winston, 2023 Almeda street, Monday evening at 8 o'clock THE CITY FEDERATION. The City Federation is called to meet Friday afternoon, November 11, at the First Baptist Church at 3 p.m. All members of the Federation and all persons interested in the work are urged to be present. The President, Mrs. Tyree, and several others had the pleasure of visiting the afternoon Sunday-school which is being conducted by Mrs. W. O. Tate with Mr. Keller and Miss Work as assistants. This Sunday-school idea is a department of real Federation work and we are glad to know that this, the first one, is a decided success and no word of praise is adequate to express the real appreciation we feel toward these workers and which their work really merits. We hope for a widespread movement of this feature of the work, and if there are more churches who wish an afternoon Sunday-school, a notation to the Federation stating their desire is all that is sufficient. We hope to send workers everywhere. They are wanted and will be appreciated. MRS. G. L. JACKSON, President. MRS. A. M. TOWNSEND, Secretary. McMINNVILLE WEDDING. Rankin-Cope.

Office of News Agency, 905 South Ninth street, Philadelphia, Pa. At the Union Baptist Church Rev, Dr. R. H. Boyd, Secretary of the National Baptist Publishing Board, of Nashville, Tenn., on being introduced to the Baptist Ministers' Conference in the midst of cheers to-day said: "You have some of the best men from the South coming to the North as pastors, and where good zoos, bad will follow. I used to think that the dark man was lost here in the North, but not so, I saw many on Lombard street, and there are so many here that they have turned the town dark. "Some of our people do not like the name Negro, but my mother, who is now 88 years of age, taught me that I was born with my present color, and therefore I was never 'colored,' and I do not wish to be called by that name, but you suit yourselves, and change all former names and call this dark race legion, for they are many. You need every facility in Philadelphia to guide this dark race to well doing. I shall go home with a different opinion, for I have changed my mind regarding your needs here in the North."

Macon, Ga.—In the death of Grand Chancellor Charles D. Creswell, who died in this city Monday of this week, a national character passed into the beyond. Mr. Creswell was at the head of the Pythian organization, being a man who had fought tenaciously every move made to encroach upon his organization: he was also supported by the Supreme Lodge throughout the country as a candidate for one of the highest offices. The late Sir Creswell served the Pythians of Georgia in almost acceptable manner and was regarded as a possible successor to the office made vacant by the death of J. W. Strauther, of Greenville, Miss. Aside from being Grand Chancellor of the state, he was Brigadier General of the Uniform Rank K. of P., of the United States, a member of the Law and Supervision Committee of the Supreme Lodge and one of the most successful men in the state. His loss will remove from active life an individual whose place will be hard to fill. Funera, arrangements had not been made Tuesday when the news reached out; office. 2 The Nashville Globe.

FRIDAY. NOVEMBER 4. 1910. Election Day at Hand. Next Tuesday will bring to a close one of the fiercest campaigns that has ever been waged in Tennessee, and we hope it will be a long time before the citizens of this state will have to go through another such ordeal. These differences of opinion will come and the only fair way to settle them is through the ballot box, and when the majority of the people speak, that ought to settle every difference, and we should accept those whom fortune favors, and every man should put his shoulder to the wheel and lend his best energies to the interest of the general welfare. The Globe has supported those candidates in this campaign that from a logical point of view seemed in the best attitude to serve the people of this great state. We have no apologies to make for the stand we have taken. We are still of the opinion we were in the outset, that those democrats who have stuck to the old party principles for the most part, are the best qualified to administer our laws. We believe that the governing of the state can best be done by those men who have not fused with another party. An adulterated party is as bad as an adulterated product—it will spoil with time. The republican and dissatisfied democrats who have combined in this campaign are just as certain to part company as water is certain to continue to course downward. Whether successful or not in this election, the break must come, and it can mean nothing but confusion, for which the people will suffer. We have advised as we believed to be best, not for money, but because we desire that peace and prosperity continue with all the people. We have not worked as hired servants, for not one penny have we received, and we are as free to-day to speak what seems to be right as we were before the campaign started. The Globe is not a "slush fund" paper, but the servant of the people. No man knows what the final outcome will be, therefore every one should feel it his bounden duty to go to the polls and cast a vote. We hope a majority of the voters in the state believe as we do; if they do not we will consider that they have made a mistake, and time will have to convince us that we are mistaken. THE NASHVILLE GLOBE, FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 4, 1910 TWO VITAL PROPOSITIONS. TWO VITAL PROPOSITIONS. In next Tuesday's election the Negroes of this city will come face to face with two propositions that concern every man, woman and child, namely: the establishing of a Normal School for the youth of the State of Tennessee and converting Black Bottom into a city park. This does not come as a warning, for there is not a sane man in this city or county who would oppose either the Normal School or the elimination of Black Bottom, but in face of the great excitement in the campaign some might overlook one or both of them, and thereby commit a crime against his children and against his children's children. It is silly in any one to say that there are enough schools in Nashville for Negroes. There are many kinds of schools, and the State Normal is the kind the Negroes are deprived of, and they need a school where the boys and girls can be taught the industries as well as literary studies. You will not only benefit the youth of Nashville by voting for the Normal School Bonds, but those in every section of our State. Black Bottom! the very name has a horrifying affect. For years and years this sections of our fair city has been a menace to the peace and happiness of our homes. The opportunity comes now to wipe it out. Will you join other law abiding citizens and put an end to this infamous rendezvous? As to where the people will go who are now living in Black Bottom is a matter for them to decide. If they will choose to change their way of living it will be an easy matter for them to find localities to live in, and we believe that many of them would do that very thing. One thing is certain there is no place on earth worse than Black Bottom, and these people could not be forced in a worse condition than they now live under. Let every man be up and on the alert. Vote the Normal Bonds and Black Bottom elimination yourself and see to it that your fellowman does the same thing. The People's Case. The perplexities and uncertainties in Tennessee politics have been many this year. It would take the citizens of maturer years to remember when the state has been in such an upheaval before. It is a strange condition, and hard to understand; in fact, it is doubtful if those well schooled in politics know or have a reasonable conception of what the final result will be. When Governor Patterson withdrew from the race it cast a shadow over the whole situation, but after his position was fully stated it was well understood, and he was recognized as a hero. The situation was then thoroughly discussed by sober-minded men, who have the interest of the state at heart, and from the outside it appeared for a time that the warring factions were getting together, and that harmony would once more be restored, but recent developments fail to substantiate the belief, and it seems that the war will not end until November the eighth, when the people will make the final decision. This has been a strenuous year politically in Tennessee. For about six months we have had little of anything else. We have hope, however, that after the election is over matters will strike a normal stride and the people of the state will return to their many pursuits and we will have peace and quietude. The Wheeler Realty Company, a local concern, had an advertisement in one of the daily papers recently in which it was stated that in selling lots in a suburban locality they would have three specific restrictions, one of which would be "Negro restriction." The advertisement also stated that the company would sell lots on Sunday. The Negroes of Nashville had better steer clear of that company, for they are too wicked to trust anywhere at any time. We agree with all the "Tennessee and American" has to say about draft vehicles going through Church street. But why the fling at the Negro? Ignorance is ignorance regardless of race or color. It is a mistake to try to substitute race for fitness in the qualification of citizenship. --- The citizens of North Carolina may congratulate themselves on having had in their midst Dr. Booker T. Washington. His presence is a balm to the downcast and his words are an inspiration to the ambitious. Straight Democratic Ticket Straight Democratic Ticket REPRESENTATIVE IN CONGRESS JOSEPH W.

Mr. Enloe, in a speech at Springfield, stated that he favored the extension of the Dortch law and an amendment to the constitution to disfranchise the Negro. Such is the running mate of the republican coalition or fusion nominee. THE HON. R. L. TAYLOR'S CREED. I believe in honest government and enforcement of the law. If I am elected governor, as I am going to be, I will do all in my power to enforce the laws as I find them on the statute books until they shall be repealed by the legislature. I believe in temperance and civic righteousness everywhere. I believe in preserving purity of the church of God at any cost, but I believe in the separation of the church and state as the foundation principle of our free government. I believe in the establishment of public schools everywhere, and the education of the people, both white and black. I believe that the Negro is capable of development. I believe that education hurts no man, whether white or black, and tendency of education is to make better citizens of any race of people. We have the Negro here among us, and I want Tennessee to do what she has been doing ever since the war—taxing herself to build schoolhouses for her Negro brethren. I would not see him oppressed. I believe in the movement to build good roads through the length and breadth of the state. Next to the church and education, they are essential to prosperity of the state, and especially of the farmer. I would not object to Uncle Sam helping us a little in that way. TO NASHVILLE LABORERS an of Tuesday next is fraught with the laborers who are employed by the city pays its laborers $2.00 hours. It used to be that the coars' work. Under a democratic The election of Tuesday next is fraught with grave importance to the laborers who are employed by the city of Nashville. The city pays its laborers $2.00 for a day's work of nine hours. It used to be that the city paid $1.25 for ten hours' work. Under a democratic administration the wage scale has been increased sixty per cent. The nominees of the democratic party for the legislature are pledged to maintain the present $2.00 per day rate. The Independent candidates are for a commission form of government which will increase the net cost of governing the city about eleven thousand dollars. The city engineer's report shows very conclusively that Capt. Cleary and the street force build streets cheaper per mile and build them better than contractors who pay their hands $1.25 per day for ten hours' work. Thus, it clearly follows that the only way to get the extra $11,000 to be paid to the five commissioners would be to cut the wages of the laborers and others employed by the city. These commissioners will have power under the charter to hire, discharge and cut the salaries of all. This will bring the schools into politics. A vote for the Independent ticket will be a vote in that direction. It has been frequently said by a hostile press that the criminal element of the Negroes was lined up solidly behind the regular democratic ticket and that all of the respectable ones were for Hooper and Enloe, but investigation shows among the followers of Senator Taylor colored men who are heavy tax payers; men who contribute to the material welfare of the State and county, and who are believers in civic righteousness and purity in social life.

Among the many eloquent and very beneficial addresses that have been delivered at the headquarters of the Y M. C. A., the one heard last Sunday took its aim at the vital spur of the listeners and struck the mark. "Ambition" was the subject from which Mr. W. G. Upshaw, of the senior class of Fisk University, spoke to an appreciative audience. At the outset Mr. Upshaw said in part: "This work is combining young men everywhere. It brings us closer to the realization of the brotherhood of man." The speaker called attention to the fact that it should be the chief object of each one to serve his fellow man.

BURRELL TAKES TWO. The game between Pearl High School and Burrell Academy last Saturday sprung the second great surprise of the season and showed conclusively that football is like other athletics, a game in which the honors change. A large crowd was on hand to cheer the high school boys on to victory, but to no avail, Burrell was there with the goods, and while the Pearl boys deserve great praise for the fight they put up and the brilliant game they played, it must be admitted by all that in the Burrell eleven they met, their superiors. The game was replete with spectacular playing on the part of both teams and as exciting as it was, there was none of that ruffian spirit exhibited. Whn the smok of battle MISSISSIPPI PYTHIANS WIN.

Gry St. and 8th Ave. R. L. MAYFIELD ATTORNEY As the years go by the name of William Washington Browne shines with greater lustre. Never was this more fully shown, than in the magnificent meeting held in Moore Street Baptist Church Thursday night, the occasion being the celebration of the 61st anniversary of his birth. The addresses were of a high order and were a just tribute to the memory of the pioneer financier and organizer of our race in America. Browne's life is an open book to the American people, his wonderful success brings the result of a sterling integrity and indomitable push and pluck. It was a truth when several of the speakers at Thursday night's meeting declared that it was Browne's successful venture into the fields of finance that had given encouragement to the promoters of the several financial enterprises being conducted in the several cities of Virginia and other Southern States. "Though dead, he yet speaketh." His name will ever remain green in the hearts of tens of thousands of his race who call him "Blessed" because of the great work he founded. As long as the Republic endures, as long as men honor the great and good of their race and their most gifted writers sing their praises, so long will the name of William Washington Browne be revered. There can be but one Browne among the race, for he, the pioneer of finance, will always stand along. "Age cannot wither nor custom stale the memory of his name. We cannot be a Browne, but let us hope that as the years bear us on to eternity, we, too, may be able to make an imprint upon the hands of time that may be lasting—Reformer. G. S. S. B. A.

Creswell, who died in this city Monday of this week, a national character passed into the beyond. Mr. Creswell was at the head of the Pythian organization, being a man who had fought tenaciously every move made to encroach upon his organization; he was also supported by the Supreme Lodge throughout the country as a candidate for one of the highest offices. The late Sir Creswell served the Pythians of Georgia in almost acceptable manner and was regarded as a possible successor to the office made vacant by the death of J. W. Strauther, of Greenville, Miss. Aside from being Grand Chancellor of the state, he was Brigadier General of the Uniform Rank K. of P., of the United States, a member of the Law and Supervision Committee of the Supreme Lodge and one of the most successful men in the state.

Bisop Clinton presided and Mayor T. W. Hawkins delivered a felicitous address of welcome. At Concord. The party reached Concord early Saturday morning and was escorted to Scotia Seminary by the local committee, headed by Dr. John Fuller. This is one of the best schools for girls in the country, and here an elaborate breakfast was served. Dr. Washington talked encouragingly to the 265 students there. At the opera house a large audience greeted him. Mayor Charles Wagoner's welcome was cordially sounded, the object of the tour was heartily commended. At Salisbury. Salisbury, the intellectual center of the A. M. E. Zion Church, was reached at high noon. The chairman of the local committee, Dr. W. H.

Nov. 3, 1910.—The tour of Washington and party came to close here last night after a most successful and enjoyable trip. SHOULD BE READ CAREFULLY. Mr. Park Marshall, Chairman of the Commissioners of Elections, has issued the following which should be read carefully: "To the Judges of Election—When a man offers to vote on his property qualification on the city bonds and franchise questions and you find him qualified, let him first fold his ballot backward at the place just below the name of the last candidate, so as to show the judges all that part of the ballot where the names of the candidates appear, and show the judges that no name is marked; but no part of the rest of the ballot shall be shown. Let the ballot then be refolded in the usual manner and voted without being taken away from the immediate presence of the judges. "At the same time let the clerks enter the name of the voter, and write after his name the words "City Only." "No one voting on his property qualifications can vote for any candidate at the same voting place. Some Laws on the Subject. "First—No person living in any ward of the city and being a general voter in any ward, can vote in any ward on property qualification, for he should vote in his residence ward on his general qualifications. Nor can anyone vote in the city on property qualification unless he be a resident of Davidson County for six months, and of the state twelve months. "Second—The voter must be duly registered on his property qualification, and can vote in only one ward. "Third—He must have owned real estate twelve months in the ward when and where he votes. "Fourth—He must have paid poll tax as other voters must. "Fifth—If you mark 'voted' on his tax receipt, add the words 'City Only.' "Sixth—If a man vote in the city on his property qualification he may afterwards vote at his country precinct for the candidates; and if a voter first vote at his country precinct for the candidates, he may afterwards vote in the city on his property qualifications. The elections on bonds and franchise on the one hand, and for candidates on the other, are different elections, and for different purposes, though held at the same time. "Seventh—It is not unlawful to show an unmarked ballot to the judges in a case like this one. "PARK MARSHALL, "Chairman Commissioners of Election." JOS. L. JONES SUGGESSOR TO THE LATE JOHN W. STRAUTHER. Announcement Made Wednesday Morning. PICKED FROM A FIELD OF PROMINENT MEN FOR VICE CHANCELLORSHIP OF SUPREME LODGE KNIGHTS OF PYTHIAAS—SEVERAL STATES WERE SUPPORTING CHOICE SONS—POSITION ALSO CARRIES SUPREME WORTHY COUNSELLORSHIP. MAJOR JONES WELL KNOWN. The question of a successor to the late John W. Strauther, of Greenville, Miss., who was Supreme Vice Chancellor of the Knights of Pythias will no doubt be decided this week, says a special from New Orleans. The appointing power lies in the bands of Supreme Chancellor, Green, of this city. There are a number of aspirants for the position which carries with it the two-fold duty of Supreme Vice Chancellor and Supreme Worthy Counsellor of the Courts of Calanthe. It is understood that Georgia, West Virginia, Arkansas, and Ohio are making desperate efforts to bring sufficient pressure to bear on Sir Green to appoint their candidate. Those aspiring for the position are J. M. Hazlewood, Grand Medical Exchequer, of Charleston, W. Va.; John Jefferson, G. W. Counsellor, of Parkersburg, W. Va.; J. T. Warren, Grand Worthy Counsellor, Hot Springs, Ark.; Maj. Joseph L. Jones, of the uniform rank K. K. of Cincinnati; the late C. D. Creswell, who was Grand Chancellor of Georgia, was also an applicant. Mississippi was in the race, so it is stated, but withdrew her candidate because of some local trouble among the state officials, and partly because of a contest about the constitutional rights of the existence of her state lodge, which was up in the courts of Mississippi, and was won by the Pythians last week. Georgia, it is said, has withdrawn owing to the death of Grand Chancellor Creswell. As it now stands, it looks as though West Virginia, Arkansas and Ohio, with possibly Tennessee, must fight it out. After a talk with big Pythians of this state and from dispatches from other sections, it seems as if a compromise will be effected by which this appointment will go to the East or North. If such be the case, in all probability Major Joseph L. Jones, of Ohio, will be the winner. The fact that he is conducting one of the most influential Pythian papers in the United States, and his being head of the uniform rank with an enviable record, makes him almost a certainty—in fact, it is hardly expected that the contest will be long drawn out, as it is understood that the Ohio candidate has easy sailing and that his appointment is almost sure. He has the support of the solid North, East, and West, as well as many of the Southern States. JOS. L. JONES APPOINTED. Special to the Globe. Cincinnati, Ohio., Nov. 2.—Mr. JosL. Jones, president of the Central Regalia Company of this city, was this morning appointed Vice Supreme Chancellor and Supreme Worthy Counsellor of the Knights of Pythias of the world. Mr. Jones is highly respected in this city and is widely known throughout the country. REGULARS OF MURFREESBORO, Murfreesboro, Tenn. Nov. 1— The Central Colored Independent Republican Club, recently organized here, will hold their second meeting Friday night., at Odd Fellows Hall. Dr. J. W. Whitfield, Chairman of the Colored Independent Republican Party will address the meeting. This club has endorsed Senator Robt. L. Taylor and Hon. J. W. Thomas for Governor and Railroad Commissioner, respectively, and also favor the elec dio not Col. Hugh L. Preston, of Woodburry, for Senator and Jesse C. Beesly, of Murfreesboro, for Representative. The political outlook for the success of the straight Democratic ticket on November 8, from present indications in this section is very bright. Mr. Beesly and Col. Preston are favorably known by the colored people here and doubtless will draw a large support at the rolls from the colored voters. REV. HOWA D RETURNS TO THE CITY AS PASTOR. Rev, S. L. Howard, the new pastor of St. John African Methodist Episcopal Church, was born in Henry County, Tenn., in 1884. He joined the West Kentucky Conference if the A. M. E. Church in Owensboro in 1889. He served fourteen years in that Conference, working from the smallest charge up to the office of presiding elder. Rev. Howard came to Tennessee in 1901 and was sta- [Name] REV. S. L. HOWARD. tioned at Hartsville, where he remained four months, when he was called to Nashville to take charge of Bethel Church, succeeding the late Dr. T. B. Caldwell. His work at Bethe stands as a living monument. During a pastorate of five years he remodeled the church at cost of $4,500 and paid off all indebtedness. When he took charge the membership was one hundred and thirty-six, when his five years was out it was four hundred. He had signal success at Columbia, where he pastored four years. St. Paul Church was remo- uled and cleared of debt and the membership increased from two hundred and forty-one to four hundred and thirty. The people of Nashville hall with delight Dr. Howard's return to this city. BROWNE'S NAME REVERED. Speaking of the former leader of the Order of True Reformers, their official organ says: As the years go by the name of William Washington Browne shines with greater lustre. Never was this more fully shown, than in the magnificent meeting held in Moore Street Baptist Church Thursday night, the occasion being the celebration of the 61st anniversary of his birth. The addresses were of a high order and were a just tribute to the memory of the pioneer financier and organizer of our race in America. Browne's life is an open book to the American people, his wonderful success brings the result of a sterling integrity and indomitable push and pluck. It was a truth when several of the speakers at Thursday night's meeting declared that it was Browne's successful venture into the fields of finance that had given encouragement to the promoters of the several financial enterprises being conducted in the several cities of Virginia and other Southern States. "Though dead, he yet speaketh." His name will ever remain green in the hearts of tens of thousands of his race who call him "Blessed" because of the great work he founded. As long as the Republic endures, as long as men honor the great and good of their race and their most gifted writers sing their praises, so long will the name of William Washington Browne be revered. There can be but one Browne among the race, for he, the pioneer of finance, will always stand along. "Age cannot wither nor custom stale the memory of his name. We cannot be a Browne, but let us hope that as the years bear us on to eternity, we, too, may be able to make an imprint upon the hands of time that may be lasting—Reformer.

This morning, October 31, at 6:30 o'clock they departed on the steamer Shiloh for Johnsonville, thence by railroad to their respective homes. The people of Savannah, both black and white appreciate this meeting here on account of the tendency it has in upbuilding humanity religiously, financially, morally and otherwise. it is the general opinion that the conference will be a "boomerang" to Savannah—come back in the near future and give another push along the lines of progressiveness. REVIVAL. A series of meetings will be conducted at Lea Avenue Christian Church by Elders A. W. Davis, Kentucky, and D. M. Keeble, of Clarksville, beginning Sunday, November 6.

A True Type of the Progressive Men of the Bluff City. The one aim of my business has been to give the public the best service, prompt and polite attention. To this end I have employed only the best trained men and practical embalmers. My establishment is manned with perhaps the best talent in the South, and the expressions from pleased patrons of the uniform and courteous treatment they received from the hands of those to whom I entrust my affairs repays me well for the pains I have taken in this respect and the outlay I make to employ only first-class men. The demands made upon me for the gradual enlargement of my establishment warrants the assertion that I have the confidence of the public whom I have endeavored to serve faithfully. This enlargement enables me to have all my equipment under one roof, so that on emergency calls we perhaps have the fastest service in the city, night or day. My stock is perhaps the most complete carried in the city. In this department we carry on hand almost every necessity, so that selections may be made directly from the goods and not from a catalogue; thus the patron gets what suits his individual taste, and mistakes and misunderstandings are thereby avoided. This determination of mine to carry on hand a complete line of caskets, robes, trimmings, etc., etc., necessitates an expenditure of thousands of dollars. This is faithfully done, however, as the time and energy saved on the part of the person who does the selecting is worth the outlay. In a handsome brick and stone structure, a few minutes' walk from the heart of the city, purchased at a cost of sixteen thousand dollars. Here will be found every modern convenience. On the ground floor are situated the offices, the chapel and the stables; on the second floor the trim J. J. SCOTT. Capt. J. J.

The Chapel is beautifully furnished, with appropriate altar for the minister and everything that goes to make its appointment first-class. My department of embalming is under the efficient management of Mr. James H. Moore, whose native ability, experience and careful training, well qualify him for the important position. Associated with him in this department are Messrs. S. W. Qualls and W. A. Hart, who are both licensed embalmers. The equipment of the department is complete in every particular.

His financial growth has been marvelous and a source of wonder to the whole community."—Bright Side of Memphis. "Mr. Hayes is beyond doubt the most popular man in Memphis; and the volume of his business almost equals that of all the colored undertakers in the city combined."—E. L. S.

Not only business matters occupy his attention but the affairs of the church, the school, the state, in fact, every thing that tends to the welfare and the uplift of the Negro race. Captain Scott is president of the Fraternal THE BROADWAY Savings Bank & Trust Co., which he was largely instrumental in building up to its high standing in the financial world. In a meeting recently held in Washington, D. C. by the Committees of the Administration Republican Club, he was elected National Committeeman from Tennessee.

UNDERTAKER STREET VIEW, SCOTT, WILKERS ON & SCOTT'S ESTABLISHMENT. While in the city of Memphis, which is the metropolis of the State, we had the pleasure of meeting some of the leading business men and personally inspecting their various commercial interests, chief among which was the mammoth firm of Scott-Wilkerson & Scott, Undertakers, 362 Beal avenue. We were quite favorably impressed with the wonderful success of that great establishment; which is not only one of the very largest in the South, but one of the finest in the United States. The firm is composed of three (3), of the most energetic and conservative business men in the city. They began business as a partnership and continued as such until, three years ago, when it was incor- UNDERTA STREET VIEW, SCOTT, WILKERS porated for twenty-five thousand ($25,000) dollars, with Wayman Wilkerson, President; E. F. Scott, VicePresident; J. Jay Scott, Secretary, all actually engaged in the work. In looking over that very creditable establishment, we found an office, a sitting-room, a parlor, a show room, and a work shop that far surpass that of any other in the South. Their rolling stock which is the most complete in the country, consists of two black, one steel gray and one white funeral car, ambulance and a number of the best storm buggies all of the very latest style and make. Their live stock is of the finest Kentucky breed, and acknowledged to be the prettiest in the city. --- MR. T. H. HAYES, Memphis, Tenn. On entering their large barn, you will see a beautiful span of white, a handsome span of steel, or dark gray and stylish span of jet blacks, all of which would take first prize at any fair. They carry a stock of the finest caskets the market affords. They are held in the highest esteem by all, both white and colored, and are quite prominently connected with the financial, fraternal and spiritual interest of the great city, being largely responsible for the largest and most successful Negro Bank in the state of which Capt. J. J. Scott, is president; Mr. Wayman Wilkerson, Second Vice President and Mr. Ed. F. Scott, a member of the Board of Directors and Executive Committee.

ON & SCOTT'S ESTABLISHMENT. a fashionable part of the city where they are quite comfortably situated in their beautiful homes with their devoted, energetic and industrious wives and angel-like children. We are informed from a reliable source that these gentlemen came to this city less than three years ago with quite a limited amount of cash, perfect strangers, not knowing one street from the other. They entered business against great odds and strong competition, they have slowly, but surely, forged their way to the foremost position on the financial world. The Globe representative asked a member of the firm, by what course had they been able to work out such --- a marvelous success, against such odds. He said: " Our success has been due largely to the policy of our firm, from the very beginning our slogan has been 'service.' We endeavor to give ideal service. We make it a point to please our patrons, and next we endeavor to give the very best service for the smallest amount of money possible to sustain our business. Next, we love the business we are engaged in. We have no desire to become rapidly rich. You see there are a great many of our people who are not able to order a high priced funeral for their loved ones, yet, they want and are justly entitled to the very best patient service. That is what our firm gives them, and that is where we get our greatest enjoyment. Thus, you can see what a company of honest, energetic, industrious gentlemen who are determined to treat every man, woman and child, as they would like to be treated; and deal perfectly square with every firm, or individual can do in a short space of time if they will. The Scott-Wilkerson & Scott Co., is decidedly a success. Y.M.C.A. Among the many eloquent and very beneficial addresses that have been delivered at the headquarters of the Y M. C. A., the one heard last Sunday took its aim at the vital spur of the listeners and struck the mark. "Ambition" was the subject from which Mr. W. G. Upshaw, of the senior class of Fisk University, spoke to an appreciative audience. At the outset Mr. Upshaw said in part: "This work is combining young men everywhere. It brings us closer to the realization of the brotherhood of man." The speaker called attention to the fact that it should be the chief object of each one to serve his fellow man.

FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 4, 1910. Election Day at Hand. Next Tuesday will bring to a close one of the fiercest campaigns that has ever been waged in Tennessee, and we hope it will be a long time before the citizens of this state will have to go through another such ordeal. These differences of opinion will come and the only fair way to settle them is through the ballot box, and when the majority of the people speak, that ought to settle every difference, and we should accept those whom fortune favors, and every man should put his shoulder to the wheel and lend his best energies to the interest of the general welfare. The Globe has supported those candidates in this campaign that from a logical point of view seemed in the best attitude to serve the people of this great state. We have no apologies to make for the stand we have taken. We are still of the opinion we were in the outset, that those democrats who have stuck to the old party principles for the most part, are the best qualified to administer our laws. We believe that the governing of the state can best be done by those men who have not fused with another party. An adulterated party is as bad as an adulterated product—it will spoil with time. The republican and dissatisfied democrats who have combined in this campaign are just as certain to part company as water is certain to continue to course downward. Whether successful or not in this election, the break must come, and it can mean nothing but confusion, for which the people will suffer. We have advised as we believed to be best, not for money, but because we desire that peace and prosperity continue with all the people. We have not worked as hired servants, for not one penny have we received, and we are as free to-day to speak what seems to be right as we were before the campaign started. The Globe is not a "slush fund" paper, but the servant of the people. No man knows what the final outcome will be, therefore, every one should feel it his bounden duty to go to the polls and cast a vote. We hope a majority of the voters in the state believe as we do; if they do not we will consider that they have made a mistake, and time will have to convince us that we are mistaken. THE NASHVILLE GLOBE, FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 4. 1910 The People's Case. The perplexities and uncertainties in Tennessee politics have been many this year. It would take the citizens of maturer years to remember when the state has been in such an upheaval before. It is a strange condition, and hard to understand; in fact, it is doubtful if those well schooled in politics know or have a reasonable conception of what the final result will be. When Governor Patterson withdrew from the race it cast a shadow over the whole situation, but after his position was fully stated it was well understood, and he was recognized as a hero. The situation was then thoroughly discussed by sober-minded men, who have the interest of the state at heart, and from the outside it appeared for a time that the warring factions were getting together, and that harmony would once more be restored, but recent developments fail to substantiate the belief, and it seems that the war will not end until November the eighth, when the people will make the final decision. This has been a strenuous year politically in Tennessee. For about six months we have had little of anything else. We have hope, however, that after the election is over matters will strike a normal stride and the people of the state will return to their many pursuits and we will have peace and quietude. The Wheeler Realty Company, a local concern, had an advertisement in one of the daily papers recently in which it was stated that in selling lots in a suburban locality they would have three specific restrictions, one of which would be "Negro restriction." The advertisement also stated that the company would sell lots on Sunday. The Negroes of Nashville had better steer clear of that company, for they are too wicked to trust anywhere at any time. We agree with all the "Tennessee and American" has to say about draft vehicles going through Church street. But why the fling at the Negro? Ignorance is ignorance regardless of race or color. It is a mistake to try to substitute race for fitness in the qualification of citizenship. The citizens of North Carolina may congratulate themselves on having bad in their midst Dr. Booker T. Washington. His presence is a balm to the downcast and his words are an inspiration to the ambitions. Every Negro who fails to vote for the Normal School bonds, the Black Bottom bonds and the Gas Franchise will be abusing his individual self. Ministers should remember to announce to their congregations the importance of the Normal School, Black Bottom and Gas Franchise propositions. EDITORIAL CLIPPINGS A Matter of Warning—That's All. This journal during the past few weeks has been in receipt of a number of letters, some commendatory and some condemnatory of our exposure of a certain publishing company in this city known as the Banner Publishing Company. All we have to say in reply the "Courant" has always felt that its cause was right, and am of no less opinion at this writing. As we have urged and cited cases wherein we have shown the rottenness of the concern, under its present management, and how utter impossible it was for anybody to expect it to ever be put upon a paying basis. The report is conclusive evidence and it was our only purpose to warn the Pennsylvania Baptist State Convention from using the poor people's money in trying to carry on a private corporation whose heart and soul meant only to use everybody's money and give nothing in return on the pretext that it was for the benefit of the Baptist denomination in the North, when as a matter of fact it was not, but purely and simply a private corporation that can never become in control of the convention The whole fact of the matter, a clear deception. Whether the members of the convention will heed or not is a question. —The Philadelphia Courant. NOTICE.

MEMORIAL EXERCISES AT ME- HARRY AUDITORIUM. At three o'clock Sunday next at Meharry auditorium appropriate services will be held to commemorate the death of Mrs. Collin Brader and Miss Kate Lynn Lyons, who departed this life during the months of June and August respectively. The friends and relatives of the deceased are invited to attend. Brief addresses will be delivered pointing to the occasion. A meeting of the Geo. W.

A full attendance of members is requested. The treasurer will present his financial report. Those who have subscribed to the Hospital fund are asked to pay before the date so that their subscription can be reported at this meeting. Good progress is being made on the Hospital building, and it is expected that it will be ready for use on or about December 1. The Boiler house is now under process of construction and heating apparatus furnished by the American Radiator Co., has already been delivered. It is fitting to note the arrival of coach Ransom who so gallantly led the Meharry team to victory during the foot ball season of 1909. His presence is only indicative of a recurrence of the past providing he obtains the assistance of his army. He has our best wishes for success in this effort. Lovers of Meharry are asking to help make his stay a pleasurable one. At 3:30 p. m. Sunday last we were favored with an eniment address by Prof. Geo. Haynes, of Fisk University. His subject, "Ambition for service," was ably handled. His many pointed references only served as stimuli to every one present. Such men as Prof. Haynes and others too numerous to be mentioned are performing the great work of saving fallen humanity. Our doors are open to all bringing such stirring messages. During the past month a series of critical operations were preformed at the Wilson Infirmary, in which the members of the senior class were invited to participate. The most critical was that performc don Mr. Hocket, of this city, for a fracture of the skull, recessitating a loss of speech. For this the doctor trephined removed the injured bony tissue, and the patient is now gradually regaining that sense. Z. G.

TO NASHVILLE LABORERS selection of Tuesday next is fraught with gale to the laborers who are employed by the role. The city pays its laborers $2.00 for nine hours. It used to be that the city p hours' work. Under a democratic ad The election of Tuesday next is fraught with grave importance to the laborers who are employed by the city of Nashville. The city pays its laborers $2.00 for a day's work of nine hours. It used to be that the city paid $1.25 for ten hours' work. Under a democratic administration the wage scale has been increased sixty per cent. The nominees of the democratic party for the legislature are pledged to maintain the present $2.00 per day rate. The Independent candidates are for a commission form of government which will increase the net cost of governing the city about eleven thousand dollars. The city engineer's report shows very conclusively that Capt. Cleary and the street force build streets cheaper per mile and build them better than contractors who pay their hands $1.25 per day for ten hours' work. Thus, it clearly follows that the only way to get the extra $11,000 to be paid to the five commissioners would be to cut the wages of the laborers and others employed by the city. These commissioners will have power under the charter to hire, discharge and cut the salaries of all. This will bring the schools into politics. A vote for the Independent ticket will be a vote in that direction. It has been frequently said by a hostile press that the criminal element of the Negroes was lined up solidly behind the regular democratic ticket and that all of the respectable ones were for Hooper and Enloe, but investigation shows among the followers of Senator Taylor colored men who are heavy tax payers; men who contribute to the material welfare of the State and county, and who are believers in civic righteousness and purity in social life.

Fite Theo W. Eckhardt Marry L. Albright The Nashville Globe. There appeared in your columns last week a communication which reflects upon me in some of the statements and demands from me a defence. First, I was not born in Nashville. I had no option in that matter at all and deserve neither praise nor censure. I am an embalmer and undertaker and my ability and equipment have demonstrated that I accept no place except the front ranks. I ask for patronage, not on ancestral lineage, social standing or sectarian and fraternal prejudice. Competency makes any man a leader and I am superlatively competent and the people who want the best professional service and are free from ties employ me and I am succeeding. Other men in the profession here succeed, and there is sufficient business in Nashville for a living unless a man's petty greed forces him to the conclusion that he owns all the people and they have no right to employ any other man. There isn't a new idea promulgated but what I give it immediate investigation in my line. Friend and foe know my outfit and know I am a leader, not an idle boast, but a plain fact. I am willing, anxious and waiting to serve any home that calls me in the undertaking business. I have embalmed bodies and the gentleman who utters his complaint has buried these people because they were induced to make the change which was their prerogative. I have taken charge of bodies from other undertakers and they have taken my cases and I have accepted the situation. I don't bury people for spite. I furnish funerals as a business. The plain facts in that case are these. Mr. Alex Johnson died Thursday and the gentleman complaining was called in to take charge of his body by the landlady with whom he is reported to have been boarding and lodging for some years. He had a lawful wife, so acknowledged by him, his mother, his brothers and sisters and in legal papers signed since by the lady with whom he stayed. His wife, mother, brother and sister gave us a written order to get his remains. They came to our place of business and engaged our service. We asked them where was the body and they said it was at the lady's house who was not his wife, but who had usurped their authority and who was running over them and who had refused to give up the body, but had taken charge and proceeded as if she were the lawful wife and made preparations for the funeral. We could not see how the law would stand for such conduct and said so. I know no person has a legal right to take possession over a man's remains over the protest of his wife, mother, brother and sister. Mrs. Matilda Johnson said she had employed a lawyer, seen the Justice of the Peace and what she needed was an undertaker and that I was the undertaker she wanted because the other undertaker was a friend to the woman and told her to go along and be quiet. I simply got up, took my men and got busy. Mrs. Johnson got her replevin Warrant and with a deputy sheriff took charge of the remains of her husband, turned them over to us and the funeral took place Sunday afternoon from our chapel under the direction of his mother, brothers, sisters and wife. Ministers of the gospel officiated, the choir from Mrs. Johnson's church furnished the music. The services were certainly solemn and impressive. Impressive to people who disregard the rights of a man's family. The remains were conveyed to Mt. Ararat Sunday afternoon and placed in vault to see if the family would buy a lot, and on Monday order was given to bury the body. All concerned—every one—conceeded in legal form that Mrs. Johnson was his lawful wife and acted within her rights. Monday afternoon the gentleman who complains took the Lady* and Mr. Johnson's daughter out to Mt. Ararat with the intention of opening the casket in the vault. That body had Robt. H. Fite Theo W. Eckh Fite, Eckh GENERAL I NASHVILLE Phone, Main 602 --- been tuned over to me by the law and the family and I was in legal possession of it until it was buried. I told the keeper of Mt. Ararat that if any one came to interfere with that body to refer them to me and let no person handle it. I had specific orders from the wife not to let the woman look at her husband's body, but to bury it. "If the daughter had asked me I would have obliged her. In fact I hurried out to the cemetery to let her see her father's remains, but she had gone and so had my competitor. No undertaker has any right to interfere with another undertaker's bodies. There was no other body in the vault except Mr. Johnson's and no undertaker had any right to trouble it. I would not dare open the casket without getting the consent of the undertaker who had the body. It is said that the party was informed that they might see the body if they asked me. It is reported that the reply was they would see Johnson dead and in h—before they would ask me. I shall not die nor go to hades to accommodate the good people. No need in blaming the management of Mt. Ararat. I gave the orders from Mrs. Matilda Johnson and the keeper did not keep the maddened trio away but those orders from the wife. It is a beautiful thought of keeping the death chamber sacred by even an undertaker. My friend has a poor conception of what is sacred when he calls that situation sacred. Where a man dies and his wife and kin are denied his body. Sacred indeed. If at any time I am called to a similar case I shall be as ready to respond as in this case. The other undertaker was called in and performed his services. He will not deny that I stood up and defended his account and halted not until the lawyers agreed to pay him every cent of his bill. The hearse carriages, robe, embalming and damage to casket as assessed by him was agreed to be paid by the lawyers upon my urging. I stood by him like a man and I do not feel warranted in being charged with doing the unmany thing and disturbing a "sacred death chamber." I have nothing against the person with whom the deceased stayed. I have nothing against the undertaker whom she employed. I am decidedly under obligations to the wife and family of the deceased for employing me to serve them, and they say they are under many obligations to me for the splendid services. I rendered them and there is no dissatisfaction on our part whatever. I am the lone independent undertaker standing out by myself. I am in no combination to crush out any undertaker and no man or set of men give me my orders what I should or should not do. As for rumors and slanders, they run their course. I want the good opinion of the public and try to merit it by what the public see and not hear of me. I use my time in keeping up with all the information I can add to my store of knowledge of embalming and undertakery. I am constantly adding new features to my elegant business. Our Private Ambulance, for instance. I am taking an interest in public affairs and my people in general, and they are seeing and knowing me, my method and service, and I am succeeding just as I believed I would and as good people tell me I will every day. Dependable service will win. I am fully assured, and the people who want the best don't care when and where you were born nor what is your social statues, the vital question is "We want the service;" can you deliver the goods? Certainly we can. Mrs. Mattie Perry spent a few days last week visiting in Union City. Mr. and Mrs. Caldwell have returned to the city from Chicago, where they went on their bridal tour.
