NASHVILLE GLOBE. VOL. VI HOLD CONFERENCES IN ALABAMA AND MISSISSIPPI Utica, Miss. and Tuskegee Entertained. MEN AND WOMEN GATHER AND TELL WHAT THEIR EXPERIENCES HAVE BEEN—EXCHANGE OF THOUGHT—NEARLY TWO THOUSAND AT TUSKEGEE—EXPERTS DEMONSTRATE THE SCIENTIFIC POINTS IN FARMING—INTERESTING STORIES TOLD ABOUT THE BARNYARD. Utica, Miss., Jan. 13.—A strong, common sense address to Negro farmers by William H. Holtzclaw, principal and founder of the Utica Normal and Industrial Institute, remarkable stories by individual Negro farmers, who told of their efforts to purchase land and educate their children, and a sane, conservative public address to the farmers and visitors assembled were the principal features of the seventh annual Farmers' Conference which was held at the Utica Institute yesterday. In his address to the farmers which began the exercises, Prof. Holtzclaw explained the object of the conferences to be an honest effort on the part of the institution to be of some service to the people of the community. He gave some polite advice to his race. Shiftlessness, idleness, being always in debt, were strongly condemned by the prominent educators, and on the other hand he told his audiences if they wanted to enjoy prosperity they must get it just as other people. "The price of success is industry, thrift, economy and morality. With these you must mix a good degree of foresight." He said, "For nearly fifty years you have been renting lands and you have worked it until you have literally worked it to death; yet there are some in this house today who are not worth one cent more than they were forty-eight years ago. We got into the habit of believing that the world is against us, that the white man is making an effort to keep up down. There is nothing in the world to keep the high-spirited Negro from measuring up to the highest standard of citizenship. In this effort we have always the personal assistance of the best white people in the various communities. I have never found one white man, whose opinion amounted to anything in the community, who was opposed to Negroes being respectable, progressive citizens. On the other hand, I know them by the thousands who have helped the Negroes to buy and attain respectable places as citizens." The personal experience of many of the unlettered Negro farmers, who have been inspired by the institution in its efforts to relieve their conditions formed by far the most interesting portion of the conference program. Several hours were taken up in the personal experience of various farmers, most of whom declared that they received their inspiration from the school teachings. Pleasant McGadney, Isaiah Marshall, Daniel Lee, Daniel Griffin, Henry Samples and many other farmers who have struggled hard until they are now in comfortable situations gave such testimony. The following seemed to be the general opinion of all those present: "It cannot be expected that Negroes remain on the farm from year to year receiving scant wages, and getting this only once a year with no educational opportunities, because their teachers are poorly paid. All this can be changed to a very great extent. The Negroes of the state of Mississippi make up fifty-eight per cent of the population, yet they only receive twenty-four per cent of the money for education. We do not even suggest that the white children of the state have one per cent less than they already receive for their education, but we do believe that: the best interest of the whole country will demand that the Negro receive more." NEARLY TWO THOUSAND GATHER IN CONFERENCE AT TUSKEGEE. Tuskgeege, Ala., January 18.—Nearly 2,000 Negro farmers from Georgia. NASHVILLE, TENN., FRIDAY, JANUARY 10, 1911. JOHN H. HARRIS 7.7. J. P. CRAWFORD. Grand Chancellor. Under the wise generalship of Dr. J. P. Crawford the Knights of Pythias of N. A., S. A., E. A., A. & A. Jurisdiction of Tennessee has come to the forefront by leaps and bounds, until now the membership is above the twelve thousand mark. The resources reach away into the forty-thousands. We are not in the habit of throwing any undeserved bouquets, but we are forced to frankly confess that Dr. Alabama and Mississippi and educators from many parts of the country were present this morning at the opening of the twentieth annual Negro farmers' conference. Booker T. Washington, Principal of Tuskegee Institute, opened the meeting with a speech in which he urged the Negro farmer to strive for better methods of cultivating the land. He dwelt especially upon the evils of the mortgage system and declared that the Negro was unable to get adequate instruction in scientific farming. "Colored farmers," he said, "might as well understand from now on that the old methods are passing away and new ones are to take their places. I refer especially to the old habit of mortgaging the crop and animals for the money to live on while the crop is being raised. * * * The time has come when the Negro farmer should be so thrifty, so industrious, so full handed that he can live for a year or longer without having to go to somebody to supply him with food and implements while the crop is growing." In the declarations of the conference a plea is made for the Negro to build school houses and lengthen school terms, see that better teachers and ministers are engaged and for the acquirement of more land and better homes. Liquor is strongly condemned. BAPTIST MINISTERS The second meeting of the Baptist ministers under the new administration was held Monday morning at the usual time. It was noticeable and commented upon that the Baptists are carrying out their New Year's resolution to meet and get down to business. It is said that they are preparing for a vigorous campaign of revivals and that they are going to work hand in hand with the other denominations in helping to drive out the soft drink evil, the hullabaloo and the many joints with their dens of vice that are making some parts of the city a disgrace to the reputation of Nashville. One of the ministers declared that the police record of arrests among Negroes was appalling. It was announced further that some visiting divines would be in the city to hold the winter revivals. The collections, or at least the financial reports, from the various churches showed that the people took advantage of the beautiful day Sunday to be out in force. OFFICERS ELECTED. Class No. 10, of Mt. Olive Baptist Sunday-School, of which Mr. S. P. Harrison is teacher, had a business meeting Sunday morning, January 15, and elected the following officers: President, Miss Odelia Adams; Vice President, Miss Florence Davis; Secretary, Miss Georgia Gray; Assistant Secretary, Miss Florence Davis; Chorister, Miss Odell; Chairman of Sick Committee, Miss Idella Harrell. Crawford has led his hosts wisely and well and that his own personality is a very safe asset, needing no vanguards to boost him. The Endowment Board of the organization meets to-morrow and our estimate of Dr. Crawford will be amply verified. His ever generous disposition to help the deserving and his cherry "Howdy-do" is proverbial of the man. GOV. PATTERSON SENDS HIS LAST MESSAGE TO THE ASSEMBLY. MAKES STRONG PLEA FOR EDUCATION — RECOMMENDS REFORMATORIES FOR BOYS. To the Honorable Members of the Senate and House of Representatives. Gentlemen—All that a state, so richly and variously endowed by nature as Tennessee needs for certain increase of population and a high order of permanent development is a system of wise and liberal laws approved by the enlightened opinion of the people who must be governed by them. It may be accepted as a universal fact that liberal and prejudicial laws which harrass and perplex, which are destructive and not constructive in their tendencies, will surely retard our growth, while those which give the people the largest measure of freedom and the widest scope to pursue their activities will as certainly expand, enlarge and increase the importance and dignity of the state. Education, Normal Schools, Indus trial Schools. It must be a source of congratulation to all that the education of our people has been placed on a firm and enduring basis, and that we are fast recognizing the truth that in the proper training of youth and the diffusion of knowledge among the masses, we have the best guarantee of good citizenship and solid property. The change from the old system to what is known as the County Board Law, which I recommended and which was adopted by the Legislature of 1907, has had a wonderful vitalizing influence, and has given to our public school system that efficiency and uniformity so much desired and has resulted in increased attendance, longer school terms and improved methods of teaching. The last Legislature authorized the State Board of Education to establish four Normal Schools, one in each grand division of the state, for the education of white teachers, and also one for the education of colored teachers, the object being to train teachers and fit them for their duties and responsibilities. The Legislature also authorized the counties and municipalities to issue bonds and make donations of land and money to build and equip these institutions. The State Board has selected Memphis in West Tennessee, Murfreesboro in Middle Tennessee and Johnson City in East Tennessee as the three sites of the Normal Schools for white teachers, and Nashville as the site for the one for colored teachers. The value of the donations of land and money which have been made for these schools and secured by the Board will amount approximately to $1,000,000, which insures with the amounts which the state will pay, a very complete system, second to none in the country, and will afford a full complement of trained teachers for our public schools. I recommend that these institutions receive such aid from the state as may be necessary for their proper maintenance to the highest standards of excellence, and also that the appropriation for general school purposes be as large as may be possible, consistent with our revenues and state liabilities. I recommend the early establishment of at least two industrial training schools, one for the white and the other for the colored children, for one defect in our development as a state has been apparent in the lack of the technical training which such schools will supply. INTERDENOMINATIONAL PUBLISHES TO MEET. There is no doubt but that the meeting of the Evangelical Interdenominational Publishers' Association which is to hold its first annual meeting at the new Hermitage Hotel, in Nashville, is attracting much attention. The very fact that it is a religious gathering of publishers means that four Negro publishing concerns, which are all that the Negroes have notwithstanding the many branches of their religious faith in the United States, are expected to represent. The publishing concerns among the Negroes that should represent in the council are: the African Methodist Episcopal Zion Publishing House, located at Charlotte, N. C., Rev. Dr. Bird, Secretary; the Colored Methodist Episcopal, at Jackson, Tenn. Rev. Bullock, Secretary; the African Methodist Episcopal, of this city, Prof. Ira T. Bryant, Secretary, and the National Baptist Publishing House, this city, Dr. R. H. Boyd, Secretary. Just how many of these are going to avail themselves of the opportunity to meet this conference of religious publishers, in order to keep in touch with the new ideas advanced and the many good things to be obtained from experienced and well established denominations, is not yet known, but it is a fact that only one of the four went to Philadelphia when they met in December, at which time the organization was effected. The Secretary of this meeting, the Rev. E. Morris Fergusson, of Philadelphia, has been sending out letters and invitations urging the denominational publishers to join him in making the meeting a success. Rev. A. J. Rowland, known by thousands of Negroes as the Secretary of the American Baptist Publication Society, is Chairman of this meeting. Among those from Nashville who attended the meeting at Philadelphia were Rev. J. M. Frost, of the Baptist Sunday-School Board; Dr. Van Ness, the Editorial Secretary, and Dr. R. H. Boyd, of the Publishing Board. It is said that Dr. Boyd was appointed on the Committee of Postal Laws and Regulations, in an effort to keep in touch with what the government desires in the way of keeping the second-class laws regulating postal rates by these publishers. Such publishing concerns as the David C. Cook Co., Barber and Smith Co., the American Baptist Publication Society, and, in fact, the greatest religious plants in the United States will have their special representatives here. The time of the meeting is January 25-27. Dr. Boyd, in speaking to a Globe reporter, said that he was very anxious that these four Negro publishers should acquaint themselves with every phase of the publishing work by attending this meeting. BULLETIN Order of business, subject to change at the Council's pleasure: 9:30 to 12:00—Council Session. Roll. Approval of Printed Minutes. Other introductory business.

Four interesting meetings are being planned for—Educational, Editorial, Extension, Publication. (Continued on Page 4.) No.3 SHOWS WHY MOUND CITY CANNOT HAVE FIRST-CLASS NEWS PAPER—BUSINESS MEN WILL NOT ADVERTISE — PROFESSIONAL CLASSES WILL NOT SUBSCRIBE — SOME NEGROES WANT TO BE WHITE—EXPECT PATRONAGE OF MEMBERS OF RACE—FOOD FOR THOUGHT. It has often been asked by strangers, "Why can't St. Louis afford a good Negro paper?" After two years in the newspaper business in St. Louis we are prepared to answer the question with truthfulness and with shame. To begin with, we will take up the savings of some of our oldest citizens who claim that The Central Afro-American is the best, the cleanest, the most up-to-date Negro paper ever published in this city. Next we stand ready with proof positive that it has never missed an issue since it was first published and besides coming off the press with systematic regularity, it has published a half dozen Extra Editions. The Central Afro-American offers the St. Louis postoffice department's record as to the proof of its circulation. No other paper ever published in this city has so ardently fought for the rights of Negro manhood and citizenship. Always fearless and truthful, it has ever stood for the motto: "All men up." Its record for printing more live news than any four Negro papers in the state of Missouri will stand for years to come. Now, we will go into detail as to its business prosperity. Follow us closely, reader, that you may not be deceived. Six Negro Groceries in St. Louis—Two of them advertise in the Central Afro-American. Yet they all expect Negro patronage. Fifteen Negro doctors and only five of them take the Central Afro-American. Four Negro Druggists, none of whom advertise and only one of whom subscribes for the paper. Eight Negro Lawyers; just Two of whom take The Central Afro-American. Of the sixteen Negro pastors, eight of them are regular subscribers. We wish to call attention to the fact that after we had sent the paper 6 months free to Rev. J. W. Sexton he refused to subscribe for it from one of our agents, who is also a member of his church. Rev. Sexton is pastor of St. Paul Chapel, which is reputed to be the leading church of the city. Of the six dentists, Doctors Cathrell and Anderson are our only subscribers. Of the lve Negro undertakers none of them advertise and only three of them subscribe for the paper. There are 154 Negro teachers employed in our city schools at good salaries. Out of this 154 only 15 of them take the paper, yet all of them take a white newspaper. These teachers are instructing Negro children for What? We presume that they are schooling them to support the white man's industries. We wonder if the hardworking mothers and fathers who are striving to educate their children can hold out any tangible hope for the future of their little ones who will grow up with a brain full of knowledge and nothing to apply it to. You cannot expect the white merchant to make positions for colored young men and women. There will appear in the white papers no, advertisements for Negro bookkeepers, Negro salesladies, Negro cashiers, Negro clerks, Negro reporters, Negro stenographers and Negro traveling men. But it will always be as it is now, plenty of places for educated Negroes who can scrub, wash and iron, cook, clean cuspidors, do housework and other mental labor. Now, as for The Central Afro-American, we can say this: We have paid out in salaries and commissions since January 1, 1910. $1,539.10, almost an average of $130.00 per month; this money was paid to Negro collectors, solicitors and clerks and it was paid by a Negro newspaper—not a white newspaper. There are estimated to be over 200 Negroes in some kind of business in (Continued on Page 8.) CHURCH DIRECTORY. --- 2 PENTECOSTAL CHURCHES. Holiness, 62 twelfth Avenue, N.-Rev. James B.

PROTEST AGAINST INDUSTRIAL FARM Louisville, Ky., Jan, 17, 1911.—The plan of State University to purchase a farm near Anchorage, eleven miles east of Louisville, has met serious objection from the white citizens living near the proposed farm. The whites claim that if the college be allowed to purchase this farm in the name of industrial education, that it will be a question of a very short time before the College proper will be moved on the ground to the menace and hurt of their property, and therefore they have called a mass-meeting and appointed committees with full power to prevent if possible the University from consummating its plans. Be it remembered that the same kind of a howl went up from the white people when the trustees of Berea College proposed to buy a tract of land near Shelbyville, thirty miles east of Louisville, to establish the Lincoln Institute for the industrial education of the Negroes. It seems that if there are such things as human scarecrows or bug-bears, none are more potent to scare the life out of the white people living in the immediate viability of Louisville than a Negro institution of learning. The effort to stop the plans of the Lincoln Institute was without avail. State University should see to it that this protest is without avail. The Negroes -must be allowed to have some out-let and some privileges for the betterment of the race. It is the opinion of many that it would be better for the white people as well as the Negroes, if they be given a fair field and an equal chance in the race of life rather than try to hedge them in on all sides. VALUABLE ADVICE FOR ALL NE GRO WOMEN. New York.-The following notice has been issued by the National League for the Protection of Colored Women, of which Mrs. Wm. H. B. Haldwin, Jr., is chairman, to young colored women who propose coming north in search of employment: You who have lived in the country or in small towns know nothing of the dangers of the larger world. Here are some things you should understand before coming north. 1. Do not think of coming until you have learned to do good housework, as there is little demand nor untrained women. 2. The wages are higher in the north, but so is the cost of everything. 3. The climate is very severe on the colored people, causing much illness, which is increased by the crowded tenements, where the air is bad, and temptations to vice abound. 4. Have extra money with you, securely hidden so that no one can steal it on the way. You will have to pay fare in the street cars, and for the cartage of your trunk to your lodging house. You will find that you must use more money than you ever dreamed would be necessary. 5. The employment - agents, north and south, are often dishonest and men of the worst character, who hire young women away from their homes, steal their money, and charge them exorbitant prices for transportation and lodging. Their money being gone, the men have the women in their power, and can take them to disreputable houses where they are used for immoral purposes, and end by getting into hospitals and prisons. 6. Have the address of the place where you mean to stay written distinctly on a card before you start, and keep this pinned on you. Only by this means can you find your way in the street cars and about the great cities. SHOT FROM AMBUSH Special to the Globe Somerville, Tenn., January 12,—Mr. John Jordan, who resided seven miles northeast of here on Capt. Brinkley's farm, was shot while in company with several others hunting. While all were standing talking, Mr. Jordan standing near a stump apart from the others, suddenly a report of a gun was heard in a distance and Mr. Jordan became the victim of a well-directed bullet which entered the back of his neck and disappeared through his shoulder. The news reached Somerville late in the aternoon. However, a posse of deputy sheddiffs accompanied by the sheriff of Fayette county was soon upon the scene. The bloodhounds were sent for, which arrived early Friday morning and took trail from a tree and went to Mr. Freel's (white) house. Mr. Freels was brought to town Friday evening and gave bond of $5,000 until Monday, when a preliminary trial will be held. Mr. Jordan leaves a wife and several children to mourn his lost.

It is promised by the manager that nothing but the best and highest class attractions will be put on at the new place of amusement, and that the theater will be conducted on the very highest plane. Mr. Jeff Bunch will be associated with his father in the management of the theatre. It is said that this theater will be one of the finest of its kind controlled by colored people in the South.

An editorial in the Herald-Democrat of Leadville, pays a high tribute to the colored porters who were shot by bandits on the Southern Pacific a few night ago. It says: "Score one for the colored brother, and let the score be so plain that all men may read. There is lying in the morgue at Ogden, Utah, the body of a man. His skin is black. He belongs to a race that in a large section of the country is considered 'inferior.' This black man occupied the humble position of porter on a passenger train. The train was boarded by two bandits. Of all the hundreds of persons on that train, including crew and passengers, only two men, the dead man and another of the same color, made the slightest attempt to resist the two desperadoes. "It is rather an odd thing when one comes to consider the facts. "One Negro tried to prevent the bandits from entering the car. He was shot. His comrade promptly rushed to his rescue and was wounded. There were several white men in the car at the time. Had any one of them possessed one-tenth the 'sand' of either of these blacks they might have overpowered the desperadoes then and there. The blacks furnished the chance. One of them paid for it with his life. The other received a severe wound. But the white men were as sheep in the hands of the shepherd. "Such incidents as this are chastening to the white man's vanity. They do not prove any ethnological fact. They do not establish any social theory. But the incident of the Overland train robbery is always well to bear in mind when the loud-mouthed bloviator is abroad telling of the supremacy and superiority of the white race. The white man is a superior being, all right, but we still fall short of ranking with the angels and—well a few flowers are due at the funeral of the black man who dared."

FRIDAY, JANUARY 20, 1911. Lawlessness. For a month and better Nashville has been infested by a gang of thieves and robbers. They have operated with the boldness of lions. Women and men have been relieved of their money and valuables at any hour of the day and in the most frequented portions of the city. And the worst of the whole affair is our police and detective forces have not been able to detect them. Think of a robber snatching a lady's purse on one of our uptown thoroughfares in midday and making good his escape. It seems impossible, but it has been done within the last sixty days. On one occasion a lady's purse was snatched in the transfer station and the malefactors were not detected. Men have been robbed in all parts of the city, not only of their money, but they have had their clothes taken from their backs. Not satisfied with that the perpetrators have in many instances shot, cut and beat their victims into insensibility. We are experiencing • a terrible reign of lawlessness, and it is time steps were taken to rid the city of the guilty parties. The citizens can aid the guardians of the law in this matter. Every citizen should become interested in the conditions that confront us. We should concern ourselves about those fellows who do not work. They ought to be pointed out to the authorities, and it should be seen to that these idlers are looked after. The people cannot afford to ignore this matter any longer. The safety of our homes demand that action be taken now. Discretion. Of the many traits possessed by mankind, none is more to be desired than discretion. He who possesses this admirable quality will be shown that his principles of sound judgment are applicable in any case. In many instances the lack of discretion on the part of some one, to whom has been given the power to speak for the masses, has been deplorable. When a man, by virtue of the confidence placed in him, has attained a place of pre-eminence, he should not let imprudence take the place of discretion, but should rather, --- NASHVILLE GLOBE, FRIDAY, JANUARY 20, 1911 in token of the appreciation of that very confidence, be conscientious as to what is right and proper under the circumstances, without fear or favor. The Negro race has need of men who can with discretion argue the pros and cons of questions of racial import. Instinctive perceptions of what is wise and proper, united with caution, gives one the right to be placed in the rank of leader and inspires in his followers an appreciative sense of his worthiness to be followed. Reckless Statements. The Washington Bee had the following to say anent the public schools of Washington, D. C., of which Mr. Roscoe C. Bruce is assistant superintendent: Rather than have Roscoe C. Bruce any longer the Assistant Superintendent of the colored schools—and it seems that it is the desire of Superintendent Stuart to reappoint him, against the wishes of the people—a petition is being circulated which will be presented to Congress, asking that the office be abolished. If there ever was a man so much disliked by the teachers and the people of this city it is Roscoe C. Bruce. The colored schools are on the downward grade. They are not what they used to be. If there is not an immediate change in the schools, Mr. Stuart will be held responsible for the bad condition of the colored schools. Any child can see that the colored schools are in a fearful condition. How can a man succeed in such a position with almost every teacher against him? If Bruce had been a success at Tuskegee Dr. Washington would have never allowed him to leave. Deliver The Bee from these so-called Harvard, Yale and Amherst graduates. Show the Bee one that has been and is a success. The colored schools are being filled with these "hoboes." There may be cases sometimes where it is necessary to abolish an office, but since there are so few places open for the many Negroes who are able to fill any position along educational lines, we should be the last to ever concede to the abolishment of a single one. It would be better to remove the cause. If Mr. Stuart is at fault remove him; if Mr. Bruce is at fault use the same method in his case. No good can be derived from such a muddle of affairs as our contemporary says exists in the capital city's schools, but it is surprising that the Bee is willing to rob the race of such a position and deprive the children of the benefits to be derived therefrom because one man proves unsatisfactory. And again, is it possible that all the graduates of Harvard, Yale and Amherst are failures because Mr. Bruce does not measure up to The Bee's expectations as assistant superintendent of the Negro schools of Washington City? Well, no; there are any numbers of graduates from these institutions who are making themselves felt in the world, while The Bee is urging the abolishment of an office of which it should be the strongest advocate. Above all things, let the office remain and the people agree upon a suitable man for it. Farmers' Conferences. The Negro farmers of Alabama and Mississippi particularly are assembling in their winter conferences. At these gatherings the men and women from all sections meet and discuss farming in all of its phases. They tell in their own way just what they have accomplished during the year, and in return men who have made a scientific study of farming instruct them how to get the best results out of the soil. Many interesting stories are related at these gatherings, but no one can attend a farmers' conference as they are conducted in the states named and go away without having been benefited. The Nego o farmers of Tennessee are suffering for just such instruction. There are scores of them who are doing well, and on the other hand there are scores of them who are not. All of them can learn something if they had the opportunity to meet in such a conference as those held in our border states. We hope that the present State Assembly will take some steps along this line. Every dollar spent for the benefit of the farmer is a dollar spent for the benefit of every citizen in the state. Next Wednesday Governor Patterson will give the reins of the state government to his successor, Capt. B. W. Hooper. At his retiring Tennessee will lose an able executive, and the unfortunate prisoner will lose a friend. The name Malcolm R. Patterson will ever live in the hearts or the people of this commonwealth. In the January issue of the A. M. E. Review, the editor discusses at length the uniting of the Negro Methodists into one body. Such a union would make a strong church, and would also strengthen the race. It is an encouraging sign to have the people from all sections of the state express their approval of the location of the state normal. The spirit of unity will always lead to success. The editor of the Richmond Planet seems to have made a rainbow of that journey. He certainly went some. He saw lots, too. Here is hoping he will live to tell the whole story. EDITORIAL CLIPPINGS. LOCATED AT LAST. LOCATED AT EAST. As seems to have been predetermined without rhyme or reason, the state education board has located the colored normal at Nashville. Among the other regrets naturally arising in East Tennessee touching this decision is one that the board should have taken so long a time to do what it might have done eighteen months ago. Chattanooga was in all respects the best bldder, but that did not avail, because it did not have friends enough on the board. Now that the institution has been lost to them, the colored people at Chattanooga who subscribed so liberally and self-sacrificingly to the fund should transfer the same to the Y. M. C. A. foundation and go in for the donation offered by Mr. Rosenwald, Chicago. Now is a good time to strike for that enterprise, to which we believe the white people of the city will subscribe liberally.—The Chattanooga Times. IT'S COMING SOON. The ferment of Negro segregation from the Methodist Episcopal into a new denomination has begun to work, this time with greater significance than ever before, because we are now given a definite plan by Dr. J. W. Jennings in the Central Christian Advocate, which plan has drawn the important fire of Dr. I. B. Scott, the only Negro bishop in that church. Most important of all is that Bishop Scott does not protest against the separation at all, he objects only to details of the proposed plan, accepting the separation as inevitable and, under the circumstances, desirable. There will be some protests, of course, but it is settled—separation will come—it is nearly here. No man can say that the separation of God's Church into denominations on race lines and for prejudice's sake is godly or Christian; but Christianity of the twentieth century, side-stepping, dodging, specious, sophistical and dogged kind will have its way. It is content to deal with God in the matter at "some more convenient time," so let it go at that. Dr. Jennings hopes to bring together all whites into one Methodism and all blacks into another; a closer classification, we suppose, would put all yellows in another and all browns in still another. But nobody really proposes that. After all God's white sheep are herded on one side of the Psalmist's "green pastures" and all the black ones on the other. Dr. Jennings seems to think that they can be led "beside the still waters" along opposite banks of the creek under the guidance of the Good Shepherd and that "goodness and mercy will follow" them ever after. May be so; that is the way things have been run in America for some time. If there is no hereafter, or if God is really a "lily white," it will be all right. Certainly, Bishop Scott is on a safer side of the division proposition than is Dr. Jennings, because the bishop is trying to commit a compulsory sin in the easiest, most graceful and, racially, yet most profitable way, while the doctor voices the conscience and voluntary act of Caucasian Christianity; one must, because the other will. The old phrase, "qui bono?" comes in here. What will we accomplished by the segregation? Negroes can have their own bishops! But they could have that without segregation, if the church chose to give it. The Negroes desire it, some say. Then why has it always been a white man who discovered the desire? But why choose a subterfuge? It is to be so, because the stronger will have it so, and that is the long and short of it—"de gustibus," or words to that effect. Bishop Scott does not believe that all Negroes can be brought into one huge "United" Methodist Church, nor do we, for they have their divergent histories, traditions, associations and preferences and cannot be run together like senseless metal in a mould. If the white brands of Methodism can be so coalesced, it is because of the unity of race prejudice rather than the openness of heart they possess. Does some one point out the inconsistency of an African Methodist sticking pins in a movement for race separation in the church? There is none, for African Methodism was born as astronomers tell us the planets were—by being flung off into space and left to find a new orbit. Richard Allen never started a race church; the pastors and members of white St. George's Church in Philadelphia did that when they attempted to pull him from his knees as he knelt in that edifice to worship God. And to this day, the African Methodist Church has never excluded a member because of his race or color. The African Methodist Church has one other point of difference—it will elect Negroes to any position in it and Mother Methodism will not. But looking at the whole matter in another way, in a kind of "makethe-wrath-of-men-to-praise-Him" way, this proposed segregation will bring some grand and deserving men, like Bishop Scott, R. E. Jones, P. O'Connell, M.C.B. Mason, W.H. Brooks, and others into the places they have long since earned and been kept from because of their color. We, the Bethelites, the Zionites, the C.M.E.'s, await your coming, brethren, and shall give a house-warming when you come, for God is permitting what selfish men are committing, and you will ultimately be blessed in being rejected that the Mother may sing in reality and without stultification, "Now wash me and I shall be whiter than snow." So any plan, or no plan, come on and come early.—A. M. E. Review for January. "THE NIGGER." The play "The Nigger" has come and gone, and it is well that it has. While there are many good points in the play showing the unfairness that often takes place in the South between the white and colored people, it is yet to be known whether these points are sufficient to overbalance the sensational vulgarisms that are likely to be caught up in a cosmopolitan audience. It shows clearly that men who commit crime in a debanched and drunken state are not so much to blame as those who sell the liquor. In this case the saloon seems to be the seat of the crime. If there were no saloons or distilleries, there would be no drunks, and consequently fewer crimes. It may be that "The Nigger" has a moral thread sufficiently strong to react in harmony, sympathy and peace for two races living side by side, yet we doubt that its sensational and commercial purport will allow it to reach that acme for which similar plays have been designed.—The Advocate-Verdict. Colored people who are disposed to be despondent should remember that this condition hinders rather than helps. While the outlook at times is gloomy, still at other times it is bright. We owe more than we ever did, and we have less civil and political rights than we ever had. Our expectations are that with wealth will come power, and with power we shall be able, we hope, to get back all of the political rights and privileges of which we have practically been divested.—The Planet The census returns indicate a steady growth of our urban population. The Negro element is even more pronounced than it has hitherto been. It may be a general tendency but is nevertheless a bad one. "Back to the farm" is a slogan which spells Negro longevity, Negro health and many other valuable things.—The Durham Reformer. THE MAN WHO MAKES GOOD. The world of to-day is commercial in its nature. It brooks no failures. It looks for results. It sympathizes but little with the man, who has nothing to offer. This situation is peculiarly adapted to the colored man. The world is the best bookkeeper yet. It gives to every man all that he is worth, not a penny more, not a penny less. The great throng which passes by, from day to day, heed only the efforts of the man, who makes himself heard and who strives. It is clearly up to us to take the initiative; to do something on the market, worth while not only wants but needs. Get busy, not only wants but needs. Get a busy, brother, and inject into the world efforts and results, emanating from brain and when you have done this, you have been a contributor to humanity, and you have made the world better for having lived in it—The McDowell Times. W. J. HALE, PRESIDENT. The state board of education yesterday elected W. J. Hale, principal of the Fifth district colored grammar school in this city, to be president of the new state normal to be built at Nashville. The selection is an expert one. Prof. Hale stands high not only as an educator but as a man of sterling worth, a genuine friend of his race and a safe leader. He has built up a most enviable reputation in this city by his mode of life; his studious habits and his efficient service. He understands and recognizes the tremendous difficulties of the problem facing such as he in their efforts to solve rationally, acceptably and ultimately the problem of the races. He avoids much of the difficulty by counseling caution, meantime educating and preparing by manual and technical training the young Negro for usefulness in his present station in life. He believes in tackling the issues as they arise, leaving the future to itself, confident that the outcome will be right if the present is employed rightly. We congratulate the state board, as well as Prof. Hale. —Chattanooga Times. HAMILTON, CONGRATULATES DAVIDSON. Chattanooga, Tenn., Jan. 16, '11. To the Editor of the Nashville Globe. Nashville, Tenn.: Dear Sir: Will you give space in your splendid paper for a few statements from "the city located by the side of Lookout Mountain?" If so, permit me to say: That Davidson County deserves unstinted congratulations on her splendid success in the fight for the Normal and Mechanical school for Negroes. We, the colored citizens of Hamilton, understood from the very beginning of the fight that we were going up against men who believe in pushing the battle to the very gates and winning the laurels of every contest. We recognized that we were going up against brain, dogged determination and tireless activity! We gracefully and magnanimously tip our hats to The Citizens' Organization that brought the results of a perfect mechanism. We say: Long live your noble chairman, Mr. Ben Carr, whose unswerving faith and tireless efforts brought you to victory! Further, although disappointed, we are not disheartened. Our showing has made a splendid impression upon our white neighbors. The impression made counts not only in favor of the Negroes of Hamilton county, but in favor of the Negro race. We are all standing in better light since our fight. There is a feature that redeems the darkest of occasions from absolute blackness. This is true in our case. We did not get the Normal, but we got the presidency of the Normal. We feel highly honored in being called upon to furnish the first president of the first state school for Negroes in Tennessee. We are highly pleased with the man whom the State Board of Education has elected to that position, and feel that the citizens of Davidson County will soon discover his sterling worth and learn to love him as we of Hamilton County know and love him. He is a valuable citizen, a man of positive and strong convictions, a man that has exhibited special executive and administrative ability, a man that is plain and genial and affable. While he is in the front ranks of educators, the humblest can secure from him the most respectful consideration. This transaction brings Davidson and Hamilton face to face and heart to heart. Yours for race progress and development. CHARLES AUGUSTUS BELL. Pastor of the First Baptist Church. INTERDENOMINATIONAL PUB LISHERS. (Continued from Page 1.) 8:00 to 10:00 p. m.—Open Council Meeting.

A set consists of one flagon, two goblets and two bread plates. If the church wants more goblets or plates, they can be furnished at an additional cost. The commemoration of the Lord's Supper is a very sacred ordinance. The custom for centuries has been to have special vessels for this occasion. Thus a communion set becomes an important part of this service. Many churches have used the old style communion set while others use an individual set. Both are appropriate and well-recommended. One is no reflection upon the other. FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONCERNING PRICES AND TERMS. WRITE TO THE 523 Second Avenue, North. NASHVILLE, TENN. her home.

PETWAY OUTBATS COBB. There has been much discrimination of late as to the ability of colored ball players, but figures are what count, so the followers of Lloyd Petway and Dad Johnson, who will manage the Philadelphia Giants next season, can be very much elated when they look at the record of games between Detroit American League, Habana and Almendares, in Cuba. It will be noticed that Petway outbatted the mighty Ty Cobb. This Petway is none other than the tall boy developed on the common of Nashville. Following are the results of the games and the batting, fielding and pitching records: Record of Games Nov. 10—Habann vs. Detroit, 2-10, pitchers, Pareda and Summers. Nov. 13.

Mr. Harry Burleigh, of New York, was to have taken part in the musicale, but his services could not be secured at this time. The Art and Craft Association is making an effort to purchase a Settlement House for the colored boys and girls and are already engaged in social work and uplift among the children. Mr. J. C.

Some time ago word came from Paris that the offer which a French boxing club had made—an offer of $25,000 to fight before it, meeting the winner of a Jeanette-Langford battle—had been definitely accepted by Johnson. This report undoubtedly was due to what Johnson said in Chicago when informed of the offer. He said he would accept the offer if his share of the purse—that is, the $25,000—was posted in the hands of a man he named in this country before he sailed for abroad next spring. Since that time Johnson apparently did not worry his head about the matter. He was willing to wait, and it is safe to say that if he really intends to fight the $25,000 will have to be up in this country before he makes any plans to go to Paris. Johnson is just about as shrewd a business man as ever was connected with the pugilistic game in any capacity. white and colored, and is very anxious to have all the people attend this musicale, not alone for the financial help which the Association will receive, but for the rich treat in store for them. It is their desire to give the public more than value received for its money before one penny is solicited. This is one reason such a high-class musicale is being put on for such a low price. Many of our white friends and the business houses have already purchased from two to ten tickets each and an invitation is extended to them to attend. A section will be reserved for them. One has only to take a peep into the homes of the lowly and on the streets to know how much a Social Settlement work is needed here. If we succeed in securing this home it will place Nashville third in line in Settlement work in America among the colored people and the first city in the South, there being only two other cities with colored Settlement houses, viz.: Philadelphia and Chicago.

To an audience composed of students and friends of Meharry, at 3:30 p. m. Sunday Dr. C. V. Roman, Professor Diseases Eye, Ear, Nose and Throat, made an inspiring address. The doctor used as his subject, "Faith in God as an inspiration to a useful life." He narrated on the word faith, first giving the definition as it appears in Heb. 11, but finally settled on the following: "Faith is the characteristic of great minds." Dr. Roman's illustrations were vivid and had a regular bearing on every-day life. He said all mankind was made up of three qualities, these he pointed out in a measure that could never be for gotten. He gave us a premise for the beginning of useful careers. Six Telephones. Dr. G. W. Hubbard is absent from the city in Louisville on business of importance. Mrs. Hubbard, who for several weeks had been confined to her bed, is able to leave her room. We feel confident that our prayers have been answered in thus having her restored. The hospital authorities are busy preparing for Dr. Daniel Williams' week of clinics which begins with January 31. All patients are making unusual progress in their recovery. Miss Mickens, of Walden, who had been ill for the past week or more, was able to attend her classes again. Miss Mickens is active in the religious work among the young ladies of the university. The students are all frowns, being filled with anxiety as a result of the examination on Monday and Tuesday of this week. It seems that the classes in geometry are leading the list. We are delighted to have Miss Grace Hammond, of Oberlin, in our midst as teacher of English and German literature. She comes surcharged with information. We wish her a year of unusual pleasure mingled with success in her new position. WOMAN'S AUXILIARY MEETS. An interesting meeting of the Woman's Auxiliary to the Tennessee Colored Fair Association was held last Monday, and it appears that the women are not relaxing their efforts in making the coming Fair a more brilliant success than heretofore. They have adopted a plan of taxing themselves, a sort of voluntary taxation. It is reported that at Monday's meeting a neat little sum was taken up and deposited in the bank to the credit of the Wowan's Auxiliary. A campaign for membership is to be inaugurated next month, and every woman who has the growth of Nashville at heart will be asked to co-operate and join the ranks of this organization to make the Fair a success STOCKHOLDERS WILL MEET. A special call meeting of the stockholders of the One-Cent Savings Bank has been made by the President, R. H. Boyd, and the Cashier, J. C. Naplier. The meeting is to be held in the rooms of the bank February 13 at 7:30 p. m. OFFICERS O FCLASS 16. The annual election of officers of Class 16 of Mt. Olive Church, which took place at the meeting was held at Mrs. A. S. Rucker's residence on Harding street last Friday evening. The following report of officers elected was made to the Sunday-school Sunday morning: President, Miss Addie G. Henley; Vice President, Miss Sarah Jones; Secretary, Miss Nellie E. King; Assistant Secretary, Mrs. A. S. Rucker; Treasurer, Mrs. H. A. Boyd. The membership reported for 1911 is 62.

The next meeting will be held at the home of Mrs. G. H. Binkley, Jefferson street, on the third Friday evening in February. CHAUTAUQUA FOR NASHVILLE. The people of Nashville are to be favored for the first time in many years with a summer Chautauqua, in connection with which there will be a camp meeting, yet it is the Chautauqua feature in which so much interest is being manifested. Full plans for this great gathering have already been drawn and work is now under way which guarantees that the meeting is assured. Greenwood Park, the most beautiful park owned by Negroes in the United States, will be the scene of the Chautauqua. Invitations have been sent to some of the leading speakers throughout the South and North, and programs with special letters announcing the plans will be mailed next week to hundreds of people. The exact date for holding the Chautauqua has not been announced and will not be until some time in February. Bids for the grandstand and other improvements at Greenwood Park have already been let; tents will be secured either from the state or government, and ample provisions will be made for visitors from everywhere. That this meeting will be a success is a foregone conclusion. The very fact that the street car service is perfect and that a five-cent fare will carry one passenger from any part of Nashville to the park means that thousands of people will go out day and night. The promoters of the Chautauqua say it is their intention to interest every church in the city in the religious feature and the camp meeting. Rev. Preston Taylor is at work and has with him, in making these plans, some of the best people of the city who are not hesitating to give to Nashville this summer meeting in which the talent and culture of the race purposes to gather. The railroads will be asked to give reduced rates. Military companies, brass bands, uniform ranks of secret orders will add to the occasion. The Chautauqua, it is supposed, will last about ten days. PLAIN FACTS. (Continued from Page 1.) St. Louis who do not value a Negro paper enough to advertise; yet if anything occurred to these men and women, if they were to suffer insult or injury from the Caucasian through prejudice or race hatred, this paper would be expected to come out in the defence of their manhood and rights as American citizens. What is fair for one is fair for another and we wish to tack this onto your memory, dear brother, that "You should do unto others as you'd have them do unto you." Support your colored paper and let it make a place for some Negro boy or girl who is competent. Read your colored paper which does not rant and rage about lynchings, burning and murder, but which seeks to tell you of the progress and successes of your people. Get yourself together and do what you know is nominational Publishers' Association right and you will not only get value received but you will be making the way possible for those who are to come behind you.
