SECURES FIGURES INDICATING TAYLOR'S ELECTION — WATCHERS OF THE VOTE MAKE REPORT OF RESULT — RETURNS TABULATED UP TO WEDNESDAY NIGHT INDICATE MAJORITY OF 7,000—FIFTY REPRESENTATIVES AND 19 SENATORS ELECTED—LEGISLATURE DEMOCRATIC
Confident of a purpose to hold back the returns of Tuesday's election in East Tennessee until Taylor's majorities in Middle and West Tennessee are definitely known, Chairman Vertrees, of the democratic state committee, today began systematic efforts to obtain figures from all sections supported by affidavits and other evidence, relative to the majorities by counties.
From the reports of watchers stationed throughout the state, Chairman V vertrees has secured figures undoubtedly reliable, which contradict those sent out over the state Tuesday night for publication. Counties reported as giving huge majorities for Hooper are found to have in reality returned only normal majorities and the evidence is conclusive that Hooper has not such a majority in East Tennessee as reported. Maj. Vertrees has pursued a decidedly conservative method in trying to reach an intelligent conclusion. He first tabulated the returns as published by the fusion press. Then as he heard from his watchers he substituted their figures whenever they varied from those published and thus was obliged to continually change his totals.
Special stress was laid upon the duties and rights of the watchers on election day in instructions sent out last week all over the state. To a great extent the watchers have complied. They kept their eyes on the count and when the count was completed took a copy of the totals. These have been sent to Maj. Vertrees from a majority of the counties today. Others will be received to morrow. As the reports arrive and a county complete is thus reported, the watchers' figures are substituted in whatever instances they differ from the published returns.
Using this method, Maj. Vertrees to night has made up these estimates of majorities, all of East Tennessee, except some of the larger counties, being the figures of the fustionists.
West Tennessee nets Senator Taylor a total majority in excess of 11,000. Middle Tennessee's net majority for Taylor will be 13,000 or more. Against these majorities, Major Vertrees figures that East Tennessee will net Hooper a total majority o fless than 18,000. On this basis the chairman is positive in his statement that Taylor has been elected by a majority of appropriately 7,000. Furthermore, he is positive in his assertion that no future development can possibly reduce that majority below 5,000.
ALL TENNESSEE STIRRED BY SUSPICIOUS REPORTS.
Maj. Vertrees is out in a most emphatic statement, in which he declares the democrats have elected nineteen senators and fifty members of the lower house—a majority of both houses. He also charges that a plan is on foot to have fusion election boards decline to issue certificates to five of the senators elected and several of the representatives—at least until the legislature has been organized and a United States senator elected. To provide against such a contingency and collect evidence to prevent a fraud being penetrated, Major Vertrees is thoroughly organizing the state and will be ready for any emergency.
The capital city to-night is stirred as never before over a political contest in Tennessee; interest in the national elections is completely lost sight of over the peculiar situation now existing.
Business here is practically at a standstill and everyone is asking,
NASHVILLE, TENN., FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 11, 1910.
"Have you heard anything yet?" The answer is, "No, have you?" There are groups of politicians and citizens of every walk of life rubbing elbows and intermediate with every other class of men. Anxiety is written on every face and every lip is framing the question, "I wonder if 'Our Bob' is ejected?" It is understood here to-night that the Tennesseean and Banner's statements that Hooper is elected by a safe majority have no grounds for belief other than their estimate of the East Tennessee vote, which is not official. The straight democrats are holding to their belief that Bob Taylor has received a majority of the total vote cast and he is elected over Hooper by a small majority. Chairman Vertrees has made Herculean efforts thus far to ascertain the vote of East Tennessee, but his efforts have come to naught, and it probably will be necessary to send men out to canvass every district before anything definite is ascertained from that section of the state.
NO DETAILED RETURNS FROM EAST
TENNESSEE.
He believes, and is not alone in his belief, that many of the election officials of East Tennessee are purposefully withholding the returns until the outcome of the Middle and West Tennessee vote is certainty known and then to overcome Taylor's

lead with fraudulent returns big enough to overcome his majority in the other two sections. This belief gains ground as the day is passing into night, and nothing either good or bad can be had from certain East Tennessee counties.
Telephone and telegraphic calls bring forth no response other than from friends, who confirm the fact that frauds are contemplated if not already perpetuated.
On the face of the returns recieved by the democratic executive committee so far, the straight democrats have elected nineteen members, a majority of five, in the upper house, and have elected fifty members of the lower house, a majority of one, and the indications are that Senator Robt. L. Taylor has received a majority of the votes cast for the governorship.
It is currently rumored on the streets here to-night that the Hou. B. A. Enloe has been circulating around and hob-nobbing with the antis and secret conferences are being held; that he is now trying to suru b legislative contests in districts where the result is known to be close, and thus secure a majority of both branches of the house, and there is no doubt foundation for this belief.
Sorrow is intermingled with grave determination that this great wrong shall not be consumed by the wily and selfish leaders of the opposition. In view of the great democratic landslide all over the United States in the national elections, determination is doubly avowed that Tennessee shall not be sold out and break the ranks of the heretofore solid south. When asked by your correspondent this afternoon, Mr. Sanders, of the republican executive committee at first said he had nothing to give out, but upon second request, he said: I have nothing to say, except that Hooper is elected by a majority ranging from 15,000 to 20,000, and that we have a majority in the lower house.
NASHVILLE
Votes Nearly Two to One Against it.
CHATTANOOGA SEEMS TO BE THE WINNER—HEROIC EFFORT OF EAST TENNESSEE NEGROES BRINGS HEWARD—HARD FOR BOARD TO DECIDE AGAINST THEM — DAVIDSON CDUNTY'S ONLY HOPE LIES IN WORDING OF BILL—MATTER WILL BE SETTLED SOON.
There is no doubt but that the citizens of Nashville demonstrated beyond any question that they were not favorable to the location of the Normal school for Negroes in this city as they made full expression of their choice last Tuesday. As the situation now stands, it appears that the county alone is making a strong bid for the location of the school. It cannot, however, be construed by the verdict rendered Tuesday at the polls that the Nashville people would not encourage and lend their support to the school, but it rather takes the attitude that the city would not further increase its indebtedness by issuing bonds to the amount of $25,000, as a special donation for the school which when located, regardless of the city, remains a state institution. The state would support it, pay its teachers and keep up every department, yet the only results to be obtained from a financial standpoint would come directly to the city in whose close proximity the school would be located. Much speculation has been indulged in since Tuesday as to what steps Davidson County would take toward pressing its claim. The city and county claim the central location, and thus had pressed their claim for the school.
Chattanooga is Nashville's closest rival, and it is rumored on the streets and throughout the city that the Lookout Mountain people, through their City Council, had authorized a $25,000 bond issue which would augment the amount allowed by the County Court of Hamilton County, making the total $85,000; while some argue that it was unfortunate to have thrown the proposition in with the general election, as many people looked upon the issue as a strong campaign measure.
At the polls and throughout the city the Black Bottom Proposition, like that of the Negro Normal School, was looked upon as a strictly Democratic measure, proposed and fostered by the administration leaders, hence early in the day it was admitted that both measures would meet defeat. It is probable, said a well-informed business man, that the overwhelming defeat met by the Normal School is attributed to the voters in voting the proposition marking their ballots so they were not counted. It is true that some election judges instructed the voters wrong. In one case it is pointed out that instead of instructing a voter to vote with the "X" opposite the yes or no, the voter was instructed to write the word "yes" or "no." Wherever this happened the votes were not counted in the election returns, as intentions are never taken for deeds. Hardly any one now expects a favorable action on the part of the State Educational Board with regard to Davidson County and the Normal School, unless the bill as it passed the House and Senate is adhered to.
The provisions said to have been contained in the bill at its passing were to the effect that there would be three Normal Schools for the whites, one located in each of the grand divisions of the state and one Normal, Agricultural and Mechanical School for Negroes to be located in the middle or central portion of the state. This is the only hope that Davidson County now holds for the location of the first state school ever authorized in Tennessee. The fact that the school has been so much talked of, and that it would fill such a long-felt want, aside from the fact that its location in Nashville would mean much to the future success of the institution, as it would have the
co-operation of the other universities here, is still lending hope to the people who favored the location of the school in this city. It has been said, and may be regarded as true, that Nashville, not having had to make strenuous efforts to obtain the three big schools located here, has lacked that push, that outward appearance of going after things. It seems that they rested upon their oars, relying principally upon the provisions of the bill. However this may be, the verdict Tuesday was emphatic—Nashville will not, at least for the present, issue $25,000 to assist in the location of the school within its own county.
FAUD IN OPINION OF CHAIMAN
VERTREES
Nashville, Tenn., Nov. 9.—Chairman W. O. Vertrees tonight gave out a statement for the benefit of Tennessee democracy in which he gives reasons for his belief that the fusionists are preparing to execute wholesale frauds relative to Tuesday's election and assuring the regular democracy that all possible effort will be made to detect and prevent the wrestling away from Senator Taylor the victory Chairman Vertrees declares he has won. Maj. Vertrees' signed statement follows: "We have elected certainly nineteen out of the thirty-three members of the state senate, and fifty of the ninety-nine members of the lower house. In addition, there are five races for membership in the lower house which are extremely close and in much doubt, and from private information regarded as entirely reliable, we believe we have elected certainly two
[Name]
of these five members in doubt, at any rate, we have a safe majority in both houses and on joint ballot. It is known this afternoon that the republicans are at work on a scheme that contemplates the refusal of the local boards, and of the state board, to issue certificates of election to five of the senators-elect, and to attempt the seating of their opponents, temporarily at any rate and until after the organization of the senate, election of United States senator and state officers. The election of these five senators had already been conceded before this scheme was hatched this afternoon, and it is and will be so palpably fradulent that it cannot and will not succeed. As a matter of fact, there is a limit to what the people of Tennessee will stand, along these lines. There is every reason to believe that Senator Taylor has received a substantial majority of the votes cast for governor, and the intention made manifest before the election, to count him out is right now in process of execution. We are taking all possible precaution for the protection of the interests of the democratic party, but in unearthing frauds of this character, under conditions existing, we are working against difficulties.
"The intention was first made manifest when the election commissioners in so many of the counties, including Cocke county, the home of the reelection officers and did not give to the democratic party bona fide representation. The law specifically requires that both parties shall have representation provides for a division of judges, clerks and officers between the two parties. It is a well-known fact that there were but few, if any, of the ninety-six counties in the state where this specific requirement of the law was respected. In a large majority of the counties, the democratic representation consisted of one judge or clerk in a precinct scattered here and there, and in many counties no bona fide democrats were appointed at all.

twenty-nine in the next house. The
number of democrats elected to con-
gress by a republican is in doubt
The Twelfth Pennsylvania district, also normally republican, is likewise doubtful. The earlier returns indicated the election of Robert E. Lee, and he is carried in the table as representative of this district. Later returns, however, give his republican opponent, Robert D. Heaton, an excellent fighting chance, and the official count will be necessary to determine the result.
Absolute confidence is not felt in the returns for some of the Wisconsin districts, and it is not impossible that the official figures will change the totals of the two parties. The Fifth Wisconsin district is claimed by Victor L. Berger, socialist. Henry F. Cochems, the republican candidate, does not concede Berger's election and a recount may be necessary to decide the election.

SHELBYVILLE NOTES.
The Tennessee Conference of the A. M. E. Church made a change of pastors at this place, and sent Dr. J. Q. Johnson, ex-presiding elder of the Columbia District, as pastor. Dr. Johnson was heartily received by the members, who seemed delighted to have such an able man to fill their pulpit. Dr. F. W. Gardner, ex-pastor of the A. M. E. Church, has been appointed presiding elder of the Shelbyville District, to succeed Rev. H. L. P. Jones. The members regretted very much to give up their pastor, but seem pacified in that they have the brainy Dr. Johnson as his successor.
Dr. J. A. Jones has returned from a trip to Union City, where he went to attend the West Tennessee Conference in the interest of Turner Normal College. He reports that a very handsome sum was given the school by that conference.
Students are pouring into Turner Normal. Some of the latest arrivals are Misses Prossie Dyson and Arlease Dyson, of Chattanooga; Miss Loudella Johnson, of Unionville; Miss Mary B. Smith, of Fayetteville; Miss Lizzie Jakes, of Louisville, Ky.; Mr. Oscar Smith, of Fayetteville; Mr. Horace Smith, of Williamsport, and Mr. B. A. J. Jones, of Chattanooga.
The boys' and girls' dormitories are both filled to overflowing. The president is putting in cots in the rooms which are already filled in order to accommodate the students. Turner Normal seems to be enjoying the greatest season of prosperity in its history. Students are there from six different states.
The students of the college gave a pleasant surprise to the matron, Mrs. G. C. Jones, last Saturday night, in the form of a birthday party. It was a complete surprise. A neat program was arranged. The dining-room was beautifully decorated; a tasteful menu of cream and cake was prepared and then the committee went to Mrs. Jones' room and escorted her down to the chapel, where she was forced to make a little speech to the assembled host. A cake decorated with a number of candles, indicating the number of years of Mrs. Jones' birth occupied a conspicuous place on the table.
The ladies of the First Baptist Church stormed the culinary department of Turner Normal College last Friday night, and when they had gone the matron found piled up on the floor a wagon load of everything in the nature of dining-room and kitchen ware, besides some food stuffs. Dr. Jones states that these things could not have come in a more opportune time.

George W. Hubbard Hospital Club
The George W. Hubbard Hospital
Club held its usual meeting Tuesday
afteroon at Meharry Auditorium.
The most interesting feature of the,
meeting was a lecture by Wi.l Allen
Dromgoole. Miss Dromgoole was
greeted by a large and appreciative
audience, She gave many words of
encouragement to the workers and
congratulatea them upon their un-
usual opportunities for service. Miss
Dromgoole expressed herself as al-
ways friendly to the Negro race and
that she wished for tnem the highest
development that was possible for
any people to attain. Miss Drom-
goole then, gave one of her readings
entitled “The Heart of Old Hickory.”
‘The father of the story, given ip that
charming manner which character-
izes Miss Dromgoole and bas made
her an artist in her chosen line of
work, rendered the story effective and
kept the entire audience spell bound
till she had uttered her last sentence.
She was then greetea with a fitting
round of applause,
After the lecture Mrs. Hale, Mrs.
Bandy and Mrs. Taylor made a re-
port of the results of the autumn
festival . They were crowned with
unusual success netting over one hun-
jdred dollars. All these ladies wish
|to thank their many associates In the

jally responded to these entertain-
'|ments making them such decided suc-
cesses.

Election Over.
The great struggle in Tennessee, so far as the voters are directly responsible, is over, and is now up to those more intimately concerned for final adjustment. The contest was an interesting as well as an exciting one, but happily it passed off without any serious incidents. Every inch of the ground was stubbornly contested by the opposing factions, and Tennessee is to be congratulated on having a citizenship of loyal men who can go through such a contest with the best of feeling toward each other. Losers concede to winners in the election, but all claim an equal interest in the commonwealth.
The part played by the Negro in this campaign, especially the way it was done, is a new thing in Southern politics, and marks the beginning of a better day in Tennessee. In the face of the arguments and the influence of many of the old leaders in politics, and among those leaders wore some of the most substantial citizens in the state, we venture the assertion that fifty per cent of the Negroes voted the straight democratic ticket. Attempts were made by some to bluff these independent voters, but they had made up their minds, and would not be persuaded from their own convictions. These men constituted that class of citizens who had paid their taxes long before the time came to vote and who had made up their minds after a careful study of the conditions in the state.
On the other hand there were on the opposite side—the side that purported to represent the republican party about as many men of just as sterling character who could not be severed from their belief, not so much because of the name republican, but because they believed the fusionists the best set of men to entrust with the government of the state. The Negroes were not afraid to let it be known what side they were on, and they were particular to emphasize that they were no longer an asset to any special party, but rather thinking men who believe that the interest of the state is greater than any party. And the encouraging feature about the whole affair is that a spirit of good will has existed everywhere. No man or set of men have been censured for following the dictates of their conscience.

THE NASHVILLE GLOBE. FRIDAY. NOVEMBER 11. 1910.
And now the election is over, and the people can return to the upbuilding of Tennessee. The contests between candidates, if any do develop, is a matter for them to settle; the voters have done all they could, and in the most intelligent way they knew how, and it is the duty of every official, whoever he may be, or whatever faction he may represent, to do his whole duty by all the people.
If the Case Is Appealed.
The decision of Judge Morris on the Maryland Grandfather Clause has created widespread interest; not only among the Negroes, but whites as well. Many of the Southern states have adopted laws to restrict the Negro, but it was left to Maryland to come from behind the screen and show just what is meant in all the states where such laws have been enacted. The Negroes of Oklahoma may take on new courage in their fight, and their chances for success have been greatly strengthened by the decision in the Maryland case.
The point that is engaging the thought of the Negroes is, what will the United States Supreme Court do if the case is appealed? It is the belief of many that the highest court will reverse the lower, but it must be remembered that this would not be an appeal of the complainant, but the defendant, and a superior court is not as liable to reverse a lower court as it is to sustain a decision coming up, in fact it is desirable to do so. This being the case a ray of hope may be entertained that the decision of Judge Morris will stand.
The Normal College.
Thursday evening of this week the State Board of Education met to settle on a location for the Normal College for the Negro youth of Tennessee. On the face of the returns it looked as if Chattanooga had a walkover, but for some reason after the committees representing Nashville and Chattanooga had each presented their claim the board, after a lengthy executive session, adjourned without having reached a decision.
It cannot be that the board is in doubt as to which city has shown the friendliest attitude toward the institution, for when it is taken into consideration that Chattanooga has put up as much money as Nashville, and in addition has voted in favor of the school while the same proposition was voted down in Nashville, and in addition the Negro citizens have raised several times more money for the institution, and also propose to donate a sight with a building and to bequeath an annual donation of between six and seven thousand dollars, in the face of all this, it is clear that the hesitancy of the board is not due as to which city wants the school most. When the counties are compared Hamilton leads by ten thousand dollars. But the board could not decide on a location Thursday night.
The Negroes of Tennessee know that the State Board of Education is deeply interested in this school; they are endeavoring to do the very best thing for all the Negro youth or the state, and may be forced to do what it seems to the hyman the impractical. Of one thing however, all may rest assured, the Negro youth of Tennessee will have a normal college, and it will be as good as any in the South. Uncle Sam is having numerous spats uowadays with his little neighbors on the South. The latest to join in the mouth making is Mexico. A pretty good sized chap. uncle.
Booker T. Washington should feel highly complimented by the attitude of that race-redeeming league that was organized to save the ten million or more Negroes, but which has made Mr. Washington the whole race, and are sending word to Europe to save him.
Roosevelt and Taft both had their states swept from under them. The laboring men seem to have concluded that it is as well to have an empty pail sometimes as an empty pocket all the time.
Saturday Fisk and Atlanta Baptist College will have a head-pummelling.
Go it, boys; we have undertakers who will take care of you, if they have to garishee you in your sleep.
Christmas is coming. If you have not written to Santa Claus you had better remember to remind him that your "taters" are out.
Black Bottom will be with us a while longer yet. But she received a pretty good jolt for the first time up.
EDITORIAL CLIPPINGS.
Houston and Dallas seem to be vying with each other in making murder records. Several days ago three men were shot in Dallas for saying "all right." Last week a prominent attorney was shot and fatally wounded at Houston for saying "good evening." Pretty wise plan to play deaf and dumb in these two cities and at that you run the risk of being shot for impoliteness.—Dallas Express.
SHOULD APPOINT MR. BROWN.
It has been intimated that the courts will name a second receiver for the Reformer's bank for Richmond, and in as much as the liquidation of that institution effects the interests of as many colored people of the state it is no more than justice that one of the receivers should be a colored man. The friends of Mr. E. C. Brown throughout the state are urging his name for appointment to the responsible position. Mr. Brown is president of the Crown Savings Bank, of Newport News, and of the Brown Savings and Banking Company, Inc., of Norfolk, and his wide experience as a banker and financier eminently fits him for the position. He is known throughout the financial circles of the state, and has a wide knowledge of the banking business. We believe that his appointment would give satisfaction to the bank and file of the True Reformers. In fact many people high up in the councils of the Order are urging Mr. Brown for the receivership.—The Journal and Guide.
We have noticed the fight, and much of it personal, between the New York Age and the Atlanta Independent, and think both organs and parties have aired themselves sufficiently well on Odd Fellow matters. We suggest now that they shake hands and cease the muddle forever or at least till the next election time. The personal reference made by Mr. Moore and Mr. Davis about each other will not do our order any good throughout America, but on the other hand, will do much harm to the outward march of the fraternity. If the allegations could be proven presented by both the gentlemen it would place each of them in a very bad repute as public servants.—The Birmingham Reporter.
Stand Firm. Be Not Dismayed.
We gave notice in our last issue of the Reformer, that the Savings Bank of the Grand Fountain had been put into the hands of receivers.
The accounts of the bank are being audited, after which a full and complete statement will be made. Until this is done, let decisions in the matter be withheld.
Rumors of many kinds may be brought to you; nevertheless you should stand firm and be unmovable. As sure as night follows day, the Righteous Judge of us all will decree and life will again be put into the greatest Negro Institution known to the civilized world. Grand Master Holmes and his officers are working as Trojans to have the institution put in condition to meet every requirement of the law in this and such other states and cities that the Reformer's flag floats.
We appeal to every man of the institution, we appeal to every woman of the institution; we appeal to every friend of the institution, to stand firm in your devotion and love for a cause which you have done so much to make grand and noble. Do not be persuaded to forsake nor leave your institution. But wait awhile, stand firm, be not dismixed, wait until the clouds roll by and you will see the Grand Fountain, like the great Solar System, sending forth her rays of light, carrying comfort, poy and happiness to thousands of homes, as it has done in the past. Let every Fountain member keep up his dues as regularly now as ever; plans are now being arranged for every claim now due, or which may be due, here after. The way we see it now, you have nothing to fear. Go forward to battle, stand to your guns, ready to fire, when our General, A. W. Holmes, gives the order.—The Reformer.
The Negro has successfully met all the tests imposed in the demonstration of his fitness to be admitted to equal participation with others in the rights, privileges and immunities of citizenship. He is capable and will meet further and more strenuous exaction if permitted half an opportunity.—The Demonstrator.
FISK QUARTET WITH SOLDIERS
BY PROF. J. W. WORK.
In was raining in a pour when the quartet, after an all-day ride, left the Vermont central train at Essex, Vermont, and the "downrail of the heavens" continued all through the night. But in spite of it all the church was about full when we began the concert. Among those who braved the elements was a soldier from Fort Ethan Allen. The soldier was evident in his whole personality and bearing; short and thick, with fine head on strong neck, with a jaw bespeaking magnificent determination. He wore a chaplain's uniform which strikingly became his erect form. He was a Tennessean and Mr. Myers and he held a jollification meeting. He was once Rev. L. A. Carpastor of Mt. Zion Baptist Church, Knoxville, Tenn., but now Chaplain Carter of the "fighting Tenth" Calvary U. S. A. We accepted his invitation and visited the Fort the next day, spending all the afternoon and taking dinner with K Troop (as the soldiers say it) and having some of the most wholesome food and the best soup that any chef could produce. The Chaplain and Coporal Thomas, an old Fisk boy, now of "D Troop," showed us around among the quarters, stables and grounds. The "quarters" are all brick houses, steam heated with all modern conveniences. Uncle Sam certainly takes splendid care of his soldier boys. The stables are all large brick buildings with spacious corrals for the outdoor use of the horses. The Chaplain had just bought a fine black charger which was being trained by one of the regiment's experts. Life was leaping and bounding in every fiber of that magnificent animal, as with arched neck he moved nobly about, champing at the bit. Late in the afternoon we went into Burlington for our concert, but not before promising to return the next day to dine with "D Troop" and to give a concert to the soldiers.
The next day, accordingly, we were out bright and early for a whole day's visit to the Fort. Coporal Thomas was our guide this day all alone, for the Chaplain had gone to Burlington to see his mother off to Tennessee. Our dinner with "D Troop" was just about as good as the one at "K Troop" the day before and the soup was all that could be desired. This day we inspected more closely the stables and quarters. Each stall in the stable is masked with the name of the horse and his rider and the saddles and bridles are all kept where the owner can get them in pitch darkness at any time he wishes. In the quarters the paraphernalia are all kept near the neat iron cot of each soldier and everything is as clean and as orderly as in a boudoir. In truth, there is a charm about the soldier's life born of order, discipline and punctilious obedience and fine respect for authority. It just my heart good to witness a conversation between the Chaplain and the Corporal. It sounded and looked like a scene in some fine drama. The same was true when the Chaplain was addressing a higher officer of even a private. Everything is "rank" in the army. Association is based upon rank to such a degree as we in private life can never wholly know or understand, but it is most interesting. This particular regiment, the Tenth Calvalry, is one of the finest and most efficient in the regular army. It has some of the best marksmen to be found anywhere. "Expert riflemen," sharpshooters and marksmen can be found in it and they do not get to be any better than expert riflemen. We saw prizes for accurate shooting and badges for the same. There are also expert horsemen who handle successfully the worst of norses. Coporal Thomas' horse is named "Devil," so much like "His Majesty" is he; but the Coporal rides him and loves him just the same. There is also in this regiment the best machine gun platoon in the army.
We found them in their quarters and were struck with the similarity of their makeup. They were all built for speed on the order of the grey-hound or deer; keen, ithe and alert. For this platoon, it is a custom to pick the swiftest men from all the troops. The aggregation consists of about twenty-two men, a machine, gun and some mules. In time of action the gun is thrown across the mule which is trained to run just as fast as he can to some spot generally masked by trees or some other object. The men take off the gun, paying no more attention, for the present, to the mule, set it up and pour into the enemy from 400 to 600 shots a minute. As hinted before, the machine gun platoon of the Tenth Calvary holds the record for speed and accuracy. It can start from any given spot, mule, gun, and all, dash 100 yards, take the gun from the mule, set it up piece by piece and hit a target 2000 feet away in 26 seconds. It can put the gun up without the running and the mule, and shoot one shot in 9 1-4 seconds. This is the world's record. And it is one of which to be proud.
After our tour of inspection we were carried back to "D Troop" for supper, after which we went to the Chaplain's to don concert regalia. The Chaplain's home is a cozy and comfortable place, on the officers' line. He and his charming wife made us
at home to the fullest. The concert was most enjoyable because the audience liked it so. You know our people, some how or other, never altogether lose their identity and the old songs from the Southland went right to the souls and the selections from Dunbar were just as unerring in hitting the mark and at times there were real Negro outbreak of hilarity and real fun which put us at home, too. He who was Sandy Thompson, the crack pitcher of Fisk team and Marathon rock fighter, sat on the front seat. He is now Lleut. Thompson, of "G Troop," sharp shooter and married man.
Our visit to the "Tenth" was most helpful to us and gave us an added pride in our soldier boys in particular and our race in general.

MEMORIAL SERVICES AT. AUDI-
TORIUM.
The loving memory of Mrs, Callie
Braden and- Miss Kate Lyons, of Wal-
den University, services ware held at
the auditorium at 3 o'clock Sunday
last. Dr. John Kumler, President of
the University, made a fitting refer-
ence to the lives of both characters,
relative to their early connections in
the South and the brilliant part played
by these saintly women on being in-
terested in the development of a race
whose ideal had not been realized. He
spoke especially of Mrs. Braden as the
co.sort of her husband in all his trials
and ostracisms, and of Miss .Lyons
who sacrificed the sunshine of her life
for the redemption of the colored peo-
ple. Brief addresses were made by
Drs. H. W. Key, of Memphis; R. F.
Boyd, of Merey Hospital; Rev. Preston
Taylor, of the Lea Avenue Christian
Church, and Lawyer Crosthwait. An
interesting paper was read by Miss
Vera Lee Moores, sent by Mrs. Mattie
Carr Chavis, of North Carolina, an
alumna who was raised under the
direct view of Mra, Braden. The solo
by+Mr. L. Napier Bass and the rendi-
tion by the Meharry quartette added
to thc solemnity of the occasion, The
seating capacity of the Auditorium
was taxed to the limit, A sign of the
mamer in which these devoted souls
were entwined around the hearts of
the students, ex-students and alumni
and friends of Walden University.

MEHARRY LAUDED BY GREAT ED.
UCATOR,
‘On Wednesday fast at 4:00 p, m.,
the students of Meharry listened to a
‘brilliant and powerful address by Dr.
W. P. Colwell, Secretary of the Com:
mittee on Education of the American
Medical Association, of Chicago, Ill.
Dr. Colwell expressed great pleasure
on being confrontec with such a gigan-
tic institution engaged in the active
work of educating physicians and sur-
geons of the colored race, and made
strong references to the work of Dean
Hubbard, the originator of the prin-
ciples that have made the institution
great. In course of his remarks the
Doctor said: “Of the the two reputa-
ble schools for the education of your
People, Howard and Meharry, you are
blessed on being a member of Mehar-
ry, observing that it hes been built
through the philanthropic and perse-
|vering ‘energy of your Dean. 1 con
|gratulate you on the erection of the
Geo, W. ‘Hubbard Hospital, a necessity
which must be met in order to keep
pace with the onward march of clin-
ieal discoveries and further pray that
the day is not far away when you will
de able to have a building three times
as large. As a member of the commlt.
tee of the American Medical Associa-
tion, I shail do all in my favor to as-
isist in your development.
‘The front and rear steps of the new
Hospital have been completed during
the past week. ‘The boiler-house is

DEPARTMENT OF MATHEMATICS
PEARL HIGH SCHOOL.
‘The first impression given to a vis-
itor to the Department of Mathematics
at Pearl High is the personality of the
teacher in charge. This department
is under Prof. G. B. Washington, His.
Physical appearance is suggestive of
the circle and parabola, a rounded,
well-shaped head which presents a
a capability of containing enough gray
matter to meet and master anything
along the lines of analytical geometry
or calculus. Prof, Washington is one
of the most renowned graduates of
Walden University. He is known
among the undergraduates as “Fess,’
a name which readily suggests the
brotherly feeling and hand of com-
radeship which every boy in Pearl
feels exists for him in the heart of
this much-admired teacher.
In the class-rooms the most genial
good humor exists, and to those who
find algebra an unknown quantity, too
deep for soluton, geometry too full
of angles, circles and ares for a prac-
tical demonstration, his only consola-
tion and fayorite quotation is “Mathe-
matics was not made for the ‘un-
wise.”
There are one hundred and seventy-
nine pupils registered in this depart-
ment. The Senior Class numbers 38,
They ate using Milne’s Higher Alge-
bra and are at present studing Loga-
rithms, a study of these immense
numbers, as puzzling as they seem to
the causal observer seem to give
these pupils the most intense interest

The middle year pupils are forty-
seven in number and the manner in
which they demonstrate the various

more profound problems of real life.
STARTING A CHICKEN RANCH.
By H. B. Greer.
Right now is the accepted time
for the man who is contemplating
embarking the poultry business ex-
tensively to start in. November is
the beginning of the poultryman’s
year. It is thé month when the
early hatched pullets and the early
moulted heng are rounding into
laying trim, and it requires only
good management to start them
aight and to keep them laying
profitably all winter. Then, too,
there is for some reason renewed in-
terest in the poultry industry as soon
as the frost comes, the mosquitoes
go, and the fowls and young. chick-
ens brighten up generally. The ex-
hibition season is also near at hand,
and taken all in all, it is really the
beginning of the new season in poul-
try culture, after the heat of summer
and the idle moulting period.
Out thers on the farm where there
is all sorts of range, where there is
wood land and meadows, and_ hills
and valleys, cleared spots and brushy
patches—ont there is the place to get
active now and make a strike for
profit in poultry the coming winter
and spring.
Here in Nashville the market goes
barrent of sufficient fowls and chick-
ens too often, If one will walk about
the market square at six o'clock of
a Friday evening he will find a few
seattering coops of poultry for sale,
But let him return at eicht o'clock the
next morning and he will see empty
coops only—all gone before the retail
buyors are fairly awake. This indi
cates that there is need of more poul-
let us go back in our thoughts to the
farm again, and outline a plan that
would make dollars grow where there
is now only weeds, grass or wood-
lands. An ideal poultry ranch could
be started and maintained successful-
ly on pearly every farm in Tennes-
foes | would go out farther trom
the house and put up small colony
honses with a yard about each, and
in each house we would put some fif-
teen or twenty fowls, and clip the
flight feathers of one wing in order
to keep them in their respective lo-
calities at first. A dozen or more of
such independent “plants” might be
started on the farms in sections oth-
erwise unprofitable, and maintained
at small expense and little labor. A
heap of straw with grain scattered in
it thoroughly, in the dry, would af-
ford them a feeding place and it need
be renewed only two or ihree times a
week—the fowls to work the grain
out. In a situation like this the hens
would lay, and their eggs could be
either marketed or hatched in an in-
eubator and the chickens colozonized
in the “fireless brooder” which is sim-
ply a weather-proof nox, with a small-
er one inside of it fixed up so as to be
snug and warm for the chicks at
night. It is successful and it is inex-
pensive, and chickens so brooded out
in the open, or under trees or sheds
will thrive and grow quite as well
as with the mother hen, They are
warmed at night by the natural
warmth of their bodies where twenty-
five or more are brooded together,
and they are much more healthy
than where they are put in large num-
bers together in a lamp-heated brood-
er. This fact makes it much safer to
‘use incubators, and more profitable,
too, than it formerly was
On a chicken ranch the birds
should be all of the same breed, so
that there would be no mixing up
when one or more should stray away
from its individual quarters. The be-
ginner should try only a few colo-
nies at first, and increase his plant
with his knowledge of the business.
But every farmer should try a few
colonies on his farm, and in this way
add materially to his income.

DOWN ON THE FARM.
Getting Lands In Shape.
By W. B. Mercer.
OW) NLS eee er ee
One of the great problems that
must be met in all farming sections
is that of getting lands in proper
condition to be farmed with ease and
profit, In many sections this is com-
paratively easy, notably in prairie
sections of the West and Northwest.
In the Southern States there is very
little of the best farm lands that does
not cost a considerable sum of money
to get it in first-class condition to be
farmed to the best advantage. The
annual toll paid by the farmers’ of
the South to stumps, roots, hedges,
‘weeds, grasses and unnecessary wash-
es and waste places would amount
to vast sums. It is safe to say that
not over one acre in ten on an uver-
age is in shape to be cultivated prop-
erly. This must /:e remedied before
‘ve can successfully use the improved
implements that are necessary now
to do up-to-date farming. The labor
problem on the farm has reached
that stage when man power must do
the minimun amount of labor to get
the maximun return in results, We
can never hope to get the best class
ot farm labor until we offer as much
money.for it as the public works and
manufacturing establishments, In
order to meet this additional cost of
such labor we must, by the means of
better preparation, labor-saving tools
and better grade of work stock,
make it possible for one man to ac-
complish results that have hereto-
fore taken the time of two or three
men. This can be done and is being
done in many cases. The trouble is
that too few are doing it. We must
work up the interest in our vocation
to such an extent that the man who
does not do things this way will be the
exception and not the rule as now. We
often hear it claimed that on our roll-
ing hill lands it will be impossible to
use the modern improved imple-
ments, because we have crooked
rows, terraces, cross fences and
smal fields. To some extent this
may be true. We will, doubtless,
never be able to run traction engines
for plows, three row cultivators or
harvesting outfits that will cut 40
acres of grain per day. In fact, we
think these are not necessary to
reach the greatest success on the
farm. Such outfits are rarely sue:
cessful on lands that are adapted to
their use except under the direction
of the best management and with
men who can grasp large things and
have the knack of selecting suitable
help to carry on the details. But it
is absurd to claim that a man of ordi-
[nary intelligence cannot improve on
‘the prevailing system and do good
farming, even if he has to do it on a
/40-nere farm, After all, it is not the
‘mammoth farm that either makes the
greatest success or does the best
farming.
| The first thing to be done is to
clear the land of any obstructions and
any useless growth that may be on it
After this is done see that all washes
ani rough places are checked and
filled in as rapidly as possible with
any brush, trash, straw and other
waste things about the place. When
the land is free of obstructions of all
kinds, begin the plans for the build-
ing up of the soil, if it is thin, or for
improving it, should it already be
fairly fertile, Humus or vegetable
matter is the one great thing that all
agricultural soils must have in abun-
dance, and, strange to say, more poor
soils result from lack of this than ah
other causes combined. When this
method of obtaining this has been set-
tled, the next important paiptis to
have teams sufficient to turn under
this humus to rot and become incor-
porated with the soil and become a
part of it. When the soil is filled
With vegetable matter amd has been
broken deeply, there is less danger of
washing or leaching by the heavy
rainfall. When the proper system of
cropping is adopted there is practi-
cally no danger of loss from washing
on lands that are not very rolling or
hilly. Where the danger of washing
is too great and the deep plowing and
abundant humus will not prove suf-|
ficient protection, some method of.
5
terracing must be resorted to. This
can be largely determined by the na-
ture of the soil and kind of crop to be
grown, In any case the terrace
should be constructed in such a way
as to avoid any loss of land for crops.
If the farm has been thoroughly
cleared of obstructions, furnished with
humus and the soil deepened by prop-
er plowing and fully protected from
any reasonable danger of further lose
from washing the land ie ready to
begin growing of farm crops. The
‘cost of getting up to this int de-
pends on the conditions of ae land at
the beginning, the knowledge of the
man doing the work, and the facili-
ties used in doing it. But whatever
it costs no land is ready for real farm-
ing without it, With the field in this
‘shape, dise plows, harrows, cultiva-
tors, harvesting machinery and other
implements of the most modern de
sign can be run with ease and profit.
The labor bill may be cut in half and
the net returns from the increased
yields will be many times what they
would be otherwise. When all the
land owners of the South realize the
importance of getting all cultivatel
lands in sluitable condition we may
expect a generation of farmers and
not merely planters and land destroy-
ers, ad has too long been the case.

Mr. Horace G. Scales, of Nashville, spoke here Friday in the interest of the Independent Republican Party, which is supporting Hon. R. L. Taylor for governor. His supporters met him at the depot in a double-seated rig drawn by two white horses. This rig was accompanied by about twenty horsemen, riding white horses. They made quite a display. Mr. Horace Scales spoke Friday night to a very full house. No one who desired to be just to each side could do other than condemn this speech. Mr. and Mrs. Wm. Roberson, of South Columbia avenue, were on Monday made happy by the arrival of a bouncing boy. Both mother and son are doing well at this writing.

SPORTING NEWS.
8
Saturday, November 5th, at 2:45 in the Athletic Park Tuskegee's strong line of athletes arrayed themselves in front of the old warriors of the crimson and black, and broke the restless suspense of the anxious fans by sending the ball flying into the camp of the locals.
The first half was characterized by the spectacular end runs of half-back Newbern of Tuskegee, by his star playing. The ball was twice carried to Meharry's eight yard line, but each time the mighty half-back was thrown from his feet by the old boys of the red and black. Each time Tuskegee made hercluean efforts to break Meharry's line but the old line, like a stone wall, disputed every inch of the way, and often all the Alabama boys were so close, yet so far.
At the close of the second quarter the score was nothing nothing, yet Tuskegee had the better of the playing.
After an intermission of fifteen minutes both teams came back with renewed energy each bent on one determination and that was to score.
In the third quarter the honors seem equally divided and much of the fight was pulled off in mid field. Meharry began to show up a little stronger and hit hard the line of the Tuskegeeans which soon showed signs of weakness under the powerful blows of Meharry's awful backs.
About five more minutes of the last quarter were left. Now came the psychological moment. Some how, some way, Scott got through the line assisted by Meharry's interference. With awful strides he fought his way and fell prostrate with the ball across the Tuskegee's goal line. Zuber kicked goal and the score stood: Meharry 6, Tuskegee 0.

The foot ball spirit at Roger Williams is becoming very much in evidence. The young gentlemen of the
BOARD MEETING AT ST. JOHN A.
M. E. CHURH.
Last Monday night the officers of St. John A. M. E. Church met in joint board meeting with the new pastor, Rev. S. L. Howard. The years work was outlined and discussed thoroughly. Every one seemed to be full of hope for the futur; a spirit of brotherly love pervaded the meeting and the pastor said he felt greatly encouraged over the reception, given him by the boards of the church.
Several of the older members said they had never seen so many members present at one meeting. A general heart to heart talk was participated in by the members of the boards and each and every one pledged his hearty support to the pastor during the fiscal year.
MUSICAL CONCERT.
Mrs. Phillip H. Douglas, of 1306 Jackson street, will entertain with a musical concert at her residence Wednesday evening, November 16th. An interesting program will be rendered on which will appear some of the city's best talent. This is one of a series of social affairs planned by the members of Mt. Olive Baptist Church and promises to be entertaining as well as profitable.
Mrs. L. V. Mebane, of Sumter, S. C., who is the District Missionary working under the missionary boards of the National Baptist Convention, was here two days this week.
TAYLOR TALKS; DRAWS CROWD.
Says Regulars Have Legislature and Will Do Business At the Old Stand.
"I am not dissatisfied with the result of the election," said Senator Robert L. Taylor, recently the "harmony" candidate for Governor, this morning, "because we have the Legislature and there is going to be some business done at the old stand."
THE NASHVILLE GLOBE, FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 11, 1910.
Athletic Association are loyal supporters of the team that is representing them on the gridiron this season. The boys have purchased a foot ball outfit at a cost of eighty dollars and more than half that amount was paid cash. This bit of information shows how high the athletic spirit is at Roger Williams in so short a time. This enthusiasm that seems to permeate the student body so completely will inevitably, in the very near future, bring forth a team second to none. Mr. A. M. Jackson, the famous quarter-back of Atlanta Baptist College during the years 1905 and 1906 who towered over 'em all in point of stratagem and generalship, is the coach. He has made a remarkable showing with the material on hand. As a nucleus about which he has built this year's team, he has had but three men; and they of one year's experience only. The rest, picked from about twenty candidates, have been drilled from the very first elementary principles in foot ball to that of building interferences that are hard for the best of them to penetrate.
The first game of the season was that of the 31st of October, at which time the boys of the purple and white locked horns with the husky bunch from Florence, Ala. While the resule of the game, 16 to 11, signallized the Alabama boys as conquerors, yet those who witnessed the game were fully persuaded that if the boys of Roger Williams had had the experience of having played even one game before that one, they would have won in jig time. It suffices to say, however, that the "Wolverines" are an unknown quantity, and are pitted to make trouble for somebody before the season is over.
We regret to hear that halfbacks McConico and Jeffries, Captain and George Branham, center, are on the hospital list this week; but from present indications they will round out in good shape within the next day or so, and will be seen back at their post of duty.
This statement was made by Senator Taylor in conversation with a group of men in the lobby of the Maxwell House, and was heard by not less than fifty men. The Senator was in an affable mood and talked freely to those who gathered about him discussing many phases of the situation. A little later, when seen by a reporter he courteously declined to give out an interview for publication
In his conversation in the Maxwell lobby Senator Taylor said that his principal object in making the race for Governor was not so much to be elected Governor as to secure a majority of the Legislature. He expressed absolute confidence that the "regulars" had elected a majority of the members of both houses.
In the course of his conversation Senator Taylor had a great deal to say about the character of the election, which he designated as terribly corrupt. He said that he was not surprised at the result, seeing that the election was in the hands of "moral reformers and champions of civil righteousness" who did not hesitate to plunge their arms to the shoulders in political filth. He said that in East Tennessee the officers of election held back their returns until they saw how Middle and West Tennessee were going. He asserted that in a number of the East Tennessee counties, Hooper's majority as given out is larger than the entire number of legal voters in the county.
Senator Taylor said that these advocates of "civic righteousness" are now attempting to deprive a number or S nators from participating in the organization of the Legislature, but that the plan won't work.
The New American Minister.
Dr. William D. Crum, of Charleston, S. C., who arrived at Monrovia a few weeks ago, has actively begun his duties as Minister Resident and Consul-General near this Government. Dr. Crum has been engaged in public life for a number of years and has been a prominent factor in his own State as
well as in the National Conventions. He served as Collector of Customs of the Port of Charleston for several years, which position created more unpleasant notoriety than any appointment President Roosevelt made during his Administration. Notwithstanding the constant threats made against Dr. Crum, he held his post and performed the functions of his office faithfully and efficiently. He resigned only a few months ago before being appointed as Minister to Liberia. Dr. Crum is a practicing physician of standing reputation and had an enviable practice in his home city. We are glad to have Dr. and Mrs. Crum in our midst and we feel certain that he will bring his knowledge and experience gained from a long public career to bear in behalf of this Republic.—The Liberian Minister.

LEARN TO CO-OPERATE.
A closer cooperation between the Negroes of the North and South is possibly the most crying demand today. It would beyond question bring a better feeling. If the Negroes of the South could be educated to the extent of appreciating the Northern Negro, and if the Northern Negro could once realize that it was to his material interest to value his Southern brother as his equal and best associate, the greater portion of the work would be accomplished. Croser moral and religious conditions would exist. Commercial affairs would loom up. The rate of progress would be lasting—not spasmodic, dotted here and there. The mutual welfare and actual conditions will never be known until the crisis comes. Now is the time to think, and think well. Great men of this country are making mistakes each day of their lives. Can they afford it? Opportunity may be much welcomed, however, the pressure will not allow time to profit by past blunders. The Negroes North nor South can't afford to array themselves against each other, and the ill will existing among the powers that he should be given a back seat. The journey is hard enough at best Learn to co-operate. not next year but now.—The Kentucky Reporter.
The world moves, in spite of the late Rev. John Jasper. The Hamburg-American and Woermann Steamship lines are to begin a direct service between New York and West Africa, in December, touching at some one hundred ports. The world is after what Africa and the Africans have which it wants, and it is not afraid to go to Africa after it. Will the Africans fall out and knockle under as the Asiatics and American Indians did as the white man advances upon them? It looks that way. The white Europeans allow the black natives among whom they establish governments for themselves no more participation and opportunity than if they were aliens, and are treated as the American Indians were treated and are treated in this country.

CRESWELL IS DEAD.
Like all men who made a mark in life, he died both loved and hated. Loved by his friends for the enemies he has made, and hated by his enemies because of his friends. His enemies, in common with his friends, must admit that he was a man remarkable for his achievements in the light of his opportunities. He loved his friends and hated his enemies. He was a man of some ability and much push and dogged determination. As Grand Chancellor of the K. of P.'s he was a success and rendered the order a great service. He was a man of power and peculiar genius. He had a peculiar hold on some people, whether he used his advantage wisely or directed his power in the proper channels, is a question God must judge and not man. Whether you hated or loved him, you must in candor admit that he possessed, though in the rough

Commenting upon the singing of the songs in our Folk Songs No.1. by a male quartette DR. HENRY E. KREBBIEL, "Dean of American Critics" says:-
"A concert-goer might live a lifetime and never hear such beautiful homogeneity of tone as that which they produce, nor such euphony, perfection of unance and precision. Save for its vital human quality, which lifts it above all musical products, this harmony sounds like that of a well-tuned organ."
This recognition puts our Folk Songs side by side with the world's greatest musical achievements.
This music is suitable for the parlor, the school, the church.

Sample Anecdotes (As they appear in the book).
There was a great lighthouse out at sea. One night the men lighted the lamps, as usual. Some time afterward they saw that there appeared no light upon the water where ordinarily there was a bright lamp of beams. They examined their lamps—they were burning brightly. But they looked outside, and there were millions of light insects on the glass, so thick they could that the light course through. In the morning they counted that a ship had been wrecked close by because the light had been obscured by the insects.
REWARD OF TEMPERANCE.
When Bishop Warren was about to lie down upon the operating table at Buenos Ayres recently, to undergo a very serious operation, the surgeon said to him, "What is you age?" The Bishop replied, "Sixty-nine years."—have you been accustomed to using stimulants?" "No, sir; have not even used tea or coffee for twenty years." "There is a chance for you," said the surgeon, and the Bishop passed through the severe ordeal in safety, and is now in his usual vigorous health. Zion's Herald.

Dr. Washington has been here and his prales are upon every lip. His message of work and peace, if heeded, will prove of lasting benefit to both races. His position that the Negro has his natural home in the South among the people whose influence is helpful, ought to inspire the masses of the race to settle permanently where they are and build on the foundation already laid. This is a good policy and the only one that will guarantee the Negro a permanent place in our country's life and history. "Let down your buckets where you are." All of Dr. Washington's speeches are worth their weight in gold.—The Durham Reformer.

THE HIGHER COURSE.
The Archbishop of Milan, when he learnt that the plague had appeared in the city, went at once to it. His clergy advised him to keep out of the peril, yet admitted that to stand by was the higher course. "Well," he said, "is it not a bishop's duty to choose the higher course?" So into the place of deadly sickness he went, watching over the people in their suffering, visiting the hospital, and by his own example encouraging his clergy in carrying spiritual consolation to the dying.
GLOBIFYING GOD IN OUR HOMES.
A saintly bishop once said: "I never move about my home, I never step out of my house, I never pass along any street or path, I am never anywhere without being likely to be seen by some one who knows me. A knowledge of this fact always makes me watchful of myself and cautious. I am to be so that whoever sees me at any time can see me to see nothing in me that is inconsistent with the character of a loyal and faithful servant of Christ." Such a spirit cannot help glorifying God wherever it is lived. Record of Christian Work.
