DAILY PAPER REPORTER WRITES STARTLING STORY.
Nashville Banner Publishes Dangerous Article With Glaring Headlines.
DENIAL OF FALSE RUMOR A FEEBLE EF-FORT. HEADINGS AND ARTICLES AS THEY APPEARED.
On Thursday, June 29th, the Nashville Banner, a daily paper published in this city, came near causing a riot by circulating a wild story. The story with the heading and denial both appear below:
INHUMAN ACT OF TWO NEGROES
Son of R. M. Byrd Tied to Tree With Barbed Wire.
LEFT IN WOODS ALL DAY
When first bound to the tree he raised his voice in shouts for help, but received no answer but the empty echo which floated through the little grove in which he was held captive. Throughout the day from time to time he tried repeatedly to make someone hear, but the spot where he had been left was little frequented, and during the entire day not a soul passed within the hearing of his voice. As the 5 o'clock whistles blew, little Johnnie remembered that some of the men from the Carter Shoe Factory, near there, might pass by the grove on their way from work, and making one last effort he raised his voice, now hoarse and feeble, in a few more calls for help. This time his call was answered and the passer by quickly unloosed the bonds. The rescuer was forced to take the boy home, however, for the child was so weak from the lack of food and fear that he could hardly stand alone.
Loud and Continued Calls for Help Were Without Avail Until Very Late in the Day.
NEGROES CATCH FREIGHT
Seized by two rough looking Negroes and bound to a tree in North-east Nashville, little Johnnie Byrd, aged 13, was as completely lost for a day yesterday, as if he had been left stranded in a desert island. From 7 o'clock in the morning until 5 o'clock in the afternoon his cries were unanswered and every struggle that he made only caused the barbs in the wire to sink deeper into his tender flesh.
Apparently the two Negroes who did the deed had no other motive than that of torture, for they did not rob the boy or beat him, but merely tied him to the tree with two handkerchiefs, a belt and some barbed wire and left him there.
The little boy, who lives at 206 Myrtle avenue with his father and mother, Mr. and Mrs. Robert M. Byrd, was sent by his mother early yesterday morning to get a washerwoman who lived to the northeast of them beyond the city limits. Shortly after he should have returned the washerwoman appeared, and in reply to the mother's anxious inquiry as to what had become of the boy, she said she did not know, that he had come to her house and given her the message and then left. The mother thought at first the boy had stayed along the road to play, but as the hours passed and the youngster did not show up, she became more and more anxious. Lunch time came and yet the boy had not returned, and a search was instituted in which all the neighbors were visited and the neighborhood haunts thoroughly examined for some trace of the child.
FINALLY TAKEN HOME.
Finally at 6 o'clock, when the father, who is employed at Max Firestine's shop at 229 Fourth avenue, South, had come home and was just about to join in the search, the boy was brought home by an emptoye of the Carter Shoe Factory, who had found him where the Negroes had left him ten hours before trussed to the tree. It was merely by an accident that the boy was discovered at all, or rather through his own quick wits.
NASHVILLE, TENN., FRIDAY, JULY 7, 1911.
When first bound to the tree he raised his voice in shouts for help, but received no answer but the empty echo which floated through the little grove in which he was held captive. Throughout the day from time to time he tried repeatedly to make someone hear, but the spot where he had been left was little frequented, and during the entire day not a soul passed within the hearing of his voice. As the 5 o'clock whistles blow little Johnnie remembered that some of the men from the Carter Shoe Factory, near there, might pass by the grove on their way from work, and making one last effort he raised his voice, now hoarse and feeble, in a few more calls for help. This time his call was answered and the passerby quickly unloosed the bonds. The rescuer was forced to take the boy home, however, for the child was so weak from the lack of food and fear that he could hardly stand alone.
Inhuman Deed.
The Negroes met Johnnie as he was going home near the railroad, and after a few whispered words seized him and in spite of his feeble protests bound him firmly hand and foot with two handkerchief. They then stood him up in front of the tree, and taking a belt bound his neck firmly to it. With some barbed wire secured nearby they drapped his body so firmly to the tree that the slightest move was agony. Their work was not finished then, however, for with a knife they cut the words "In Hard Luck" above his head and left the boy to his fate. Except for the passing of the one man who released the child, the boy might have stayed for days.
The two Negroes boarded a passing freight on the L. & N. shortly after they had finished their work, but the boy says he would be able to recognize them both again. The police have notified the authorities in all the nearby towns and expect to catch the men in a few days.
Johnnie Byrd Devised Tie-Up Scheme to Shield Disobedience.
Few men can be heroes for any length of time, but the fall of Johnnie Byrd was quicker than usual and had a sadder ending. Night before last and yesterday morning little Johnnie was the center of attention and attraction in his neighborhood, for it was thought he had really been the victim of an inhuman attack, but yesterday afternoon when the news began to spread the joke was too good to keep, and some of Johnnie's comrades told their parents the real history of the barbed-wire tying. It seems that after getting the washerwoman Wednesday morning little Johnnie was invited by several of his boy comrades while on the way home to go in swimming. The day was warm and the thoughts of the shady pool would not down, so in spite of the parental command to come right home, Johnnie hiked for

BAPTIST CHURCH OF EAST NASHVILLE CALLS REV. BUSHELL.
After having under consideration many prominent divines, and having spent more than two years in their effort to select a pastor, the First Baptist Church. East Nashville, on last Thursday night called to its pastorate Rev. J. Davenport Bushell, D. D., of Mayfield, Ky. It is understood that Rev. Bushell has already sent in his acceptance, with the understanding that he will report not later than
August 20. It will be remembered that Rev. Bushell thrilled many audiences in Nashville during his revival at First Baptist Church, Spruce street, and that his wife, who is a noted soloist, was also a popular favorite, rendering many soul-stirring solos after each service.
Rev. Bushell filled the pulpit of the First Baptist Church on June 10th, on his way from the Sunday-School Congress. Great preparations are already being made for his acceptance by the people of East Nashville.
PYTHIANS MEET IN CHATTANOOGA NEXT WEEK.
Next Tuesday the Negro Pythians of the state will assemble in Chattanooga to review the work of the fiscal year. This meeting promises to be a very important one, and from what can be learned, there will be harmony throughout the meeting. The success of the order has been phenomenal this year, and a healthy increase both in numbers and finances will be reported. It is believed that practically all of the old officers will be re-elected, little or no opposition being in evidence, but it is in this case as in all others, there is no one who can tell what will happen. Grand Chancellor Crawford is very optimistic as to the future of the order in Tennessee. He is of the opinion that unless something turns up that is not now in evidence the Grand Lodge Knights of Pythias of Tennessee will soon take rank with the leading states in the march of progress.
The ladies' department will convene at the same time as the men and in the same city. There is some talk of a general shakeup in the Grand Court, as the ladies feel that more of the offices should be filled by them. There is strong sentiment in their favor, and it will not be a surprise if several of the men do not lose out. The ladies are outspoken in their opinions and the men officers will have to do some tall hustling to hold on.
Chattanoogians are ready for their guests. They have long since pronounced all things ready. Entertainment will be galore, and the many points of interest to be visited will make the visit of the city under Lookout's eve a very pleasant one.
HON. J. C. NAPIER'S NAME PRINTED ON UNCLE SAM'S MONEY. Special to the Globe
Washington, July 6.—The first batch of paper money bearing the signature of Hon. J. C. Napter, Registrar of the Treasury, was run off the presses of the Government Bureau of Printing and Engraving this week. It has been transferred to the Treasury to be stamped and will shortly be out in circulation. The new issue of greenbacks will bear the signatures of Tennesseeans exclusively. The only other signature besides that of Mr. Napier on Uncle Sam's circulation note currency is that of Mr. Lee McClung, United States Treasurer. Mr. Napier will purchase the first bill with his signature to be put in circulation and he will have it framed.
CHARGES PREFERRED AGAINST FIREMAN L. A. WALLACE.
FIREMAN I. A. WALLACE.
Chief A. A. Rozetta preferred charges this morning with the Civil Service Commission against Fireman I. A. Wallace of Engine Company No 4, alleging intoxication, conduct unbecoming an officer, and breach of discipline. The alleged offense took place yesterday at the headquarters of Engine Company No. 4, on Woodland street. It is stated that Wallace was intoxicated and incapacitated for duty, that he used vulgar language, and threatened the life of his Captain. It is also charged that he fired a pistol in the building occupied by Engine Company No. 4. The date for the trial has not been set by the Mayor.
CONGRESS ENDORSED.
A ringing endorsement of the Sunday-school Congress of the National Baptist Convention as it is now being conducted, a request that the state of Tennessee go on record as favoring any improvement that tends to the uplift of the young people of the race and denomination, with an eloquent plea for his denomination to seize upon this as the opportune moment for gathering within it ranks a brilliant set of young people whose future is brighter now than ever before, was the theme and substance of a noble address delivered y Rev. E M Seymour, of Clarksville, president of the Tennessee Sunday-school Convention at the Kayne Avenue Baptist Church last Friday afternoon. The address of President Seymour was a splendid production, and was delivered with much eloquence.

BISHOP PARKS CALLED FROM SICK BED IN CHICAGO—JUDGE SHEPPERD ON HAND TO REPRESENT THE CITIZENS OF SHELBYWILLE — DISCOVERED THAT TRUSTEES ACTED .BEYOND THEIR POWER—PEOPLE DO NOT APPROVE OF THE PROPOSED CHANGE—REAL ESTATE MEN PUSHING THEIR CLAIM.
For several days the committee sent out by the trustees of Turner Normal College to purchase a site for that institution in or near this city have been holding sessions daily in an effort to get themselves out of what appears to be a pretty bad muddle.
When it became known to the people of Shelbyville that the trustees had voted to move the college, they got busy as they had never done before. Propositions came thick and fact, and not only that, ut a thorough investigatio nwas made as to the right of the trustees to buy land and establish a school. The ablest lawyers in Bedford County were consulted and the charter was examined which revealed the fact that under the charter the trustees could not do what they had voted they would do. This information was made known to the real estate men and then the hustling began. The sale of the property that had been selected for the Turner Normal College makes an interesting story. A few years ago the real estate dealers discovered that the territory north of Mt. Nebo and west of the Tennessee Central railroad was equal in beauty and convenience to any locality around Nashville, so they drew a dead line at the railroad and a desirable point south toward Mt. Nebo. This line was just south of the Heffernan site. No Negro could buy property in that select territory. The word was passed down the line, Thus far shalt thou come, and no further. But when the state began to look for a site for the Negro Normal they selected and bought right in the midst of this chosen territory and the paradise that had been selected for white people only, at once became contaminated with Negrophobia. Then came the Turner Normal proposition and hope again beamed out for the real estate mer. If they could locate an other Negro college in that vicinity why, they would have a better opportunity than ever to sell their property at fervent prices. But just when every thing looked rosy, another cloud in the nature of a state charter arose and their high hopes are blasted.
The trustees and the real estate men are now resting on their oars, each waiting to see what move the toher will make. There does not seem to be the least probability of a lawsuit, for all parties agree that they were acting in good faith, and it is believed that all that can be done will be to drop the matter for the time being. It is not believed that the trustees will demand that the forfeit they put up be returned to them, as the amount required was very little, but just what will be done is not known.
In speaking of the matter, President Jones said:
"I wish to say in this connection, that after a second sober thought, and due consideration, our trustees have come to see that we acted hastily, and she now endeavoring to restore ourselves to our normal conditions, and we expect to open school this fall at the same old stand in Shelbyville.
"Turner Normal has grown by loops and bounds with in the last five or six years, as everybody knows, and as in all such cases with institutions of its kind needs more and greater aid."
The news of the decision of the purchasing committee to abandon the further negotiation for the Nashville property is heralded with the greatest delight by the citizens of Shelbyville.

Why We Have Mobs.
The attempt last week of a young lad, of East Nashville, to avoid a punishment he very much deserved when he had his playmates tie him to a tree where he could easily be found, and his charge that two Negroes had committed a henious crime was one of the best illustrations on record of the causes that perpetuate the mob spirit in this country. The act of the boy can be excused because of his age which was reported to be only thirteen, but the point that is alarming is that he could conceive of such a scheme. There is a cause for this boy's hell-inclined mind and it is this that we want to discuss.
In another column will be found the account of the incident as it first appeared in the Nashville Banner, and following right under it the acknowledgement of the error. We have endeavored to reproduce the two articles just as they appeared in the Banner to show the stress put on the tale told by the boy. Any man who can read of such a deed and not be angered to the point of desperation is not worthy to be called a man, and the father who would not shoot on sight a man who would so mistreat his child is not worthy to be called a father. The picture painted in that article would make the blood boil in the veins. It is awful to think about two grown up men taking a little thirteen-year-old boy and subjecting him to such torture, and any two men who would commit such a deed would deserve the severest punishment the courts could inflict upon them. But no one had mistreated this boy. He had not been tied to the tree all day, but only a short while and that at his own solicitation, as will be seen by reading the acknowledgement of error. But to gain the sympathy of his parents and the people of the community this child said two Negro men tied him there in the morning and he had been in that torture all day. As young as he was he knew that if he said Negroes had done the deed he would have not only the sympathy of the the people, but the press of the South as well.
The daily paper reporter is to be condemned more than the boy. Yes, far more; for he it was who painted the town red with a story that he should have had every reason to doubt. But that inclination to inflict punishment upon some Negro, whether guilty or innocent, has been indulged to the extent that newspaper reporters in the South feel that they are not great until they have concocted some scheme that will work up a mob. And the editors of newspapers are no better, for no sooner than they see that the accused is a Negro they set about to make room for the article and on the front page and order a big head written for it. This is a condition that confronts the Negro, what can be done? about it. Is there a remedy?
The Negro has never exhibited the spirit of anarchism, but more and
NASHVILLE GLOBE, FRIDAY, JULY 7, 1911.
more as they become educated they show a desire to respect the law; so that is not a remedy. Some remedy ought to be devised whereby such injustices may be averted. The first thing it seems that the Negroes need is an information bureau, whereby they can understand each other, and through which information can be given in a short time about any attempt at mob violence or race riot, and such attempts be thwarted by making the truth known to the authorities and the best people in the community. It needs to be an organization composed of men and women of unquestioned integrity, and it should be known to everybody just who the members of such an organization are. Some plan must be devised whereby our people can be protected and the mob spirit checked in this country, for until it is done no Negro need feel safe from the mob anywhere in this country at any time.
Importatio nof African Animals.
Dr. G. M. Rommel, chief of the division of animal industry, speaking in opposition to the scheme, strikes upon a point that is vital to the Negro when he says that he sees in the reason advanced by the Louisiana Congressman for favoring the bill a great opportunity for the South. He cites that cattle can be raised in the South at 3 cents per pound and argues that instead of importing from Africa that the southern farmers turn their attention to cattle raising to much greater extent than is now the case.
We see in this suggestion a splendid opportunity for the Negroes of the South to engage in an industry that is profitable, and we would advise that more attention be given to stock raising by the Negro farmers of the South. Especially should the Negroes of Tennessee engage in stock raising more extensively, for no state in the Union is better adapted to this industry than Tennessee.
We have always believed that the genuine democrats of Middle Tennessee would have a genuine democratic paper. The appearance of "The Democrat" will be awaited with anxiety.

WOMEN'S STATE FEDERATION.
Special to the Globe:
Jackson, Tenn., July 6.—There is in session at the Berean Baptist Church the annual meeting of the Tennessee Federation of Women's clubs. The meeting was called to order this morning by Mrs. Whiteman, the president. A splendid delegation representing most of the large cities in the state is present. The meeting is to continue Friday and Saturday, Memphis, as usual, leads in the delegates. The ladies are being entertained by the local club and the citizen's committee.
The home life of the Negro people, protection of young women and old folks and the position of the league on the temperance question are among the important matters that are programed for discussion at this session. It is also expected that the Federation will select a delegate to the National Federation, which is to be held at Hampton, Va.
The Nashville delegates at the State Federation left the city Wednesday morning at seven o'clock. Among those who are attending the meeting are Mrs. G. L. Jackson, president of the City Federation; Mrs. A. M. Townsend, of the Fleur-de-lis Art Club; Mrs. Lewis, Mrs. Cotton and several others interested in club work.
Mr. David Alexander is spending his vacation visiting in California, Colorado and Salt Lake City. He will visit many points of interest while in the west.
COMMUNICATION
PATRONIZE NEGRO BANKS,
Mr. Editor:
I would be pleased for some erudite individual to answer this question: "Why do the Negro fraternal orders put their Endowment funds in white banks?" These societies contain the best Negro brain, are fostered by race-loving men; they do much for the material advancement of our people along all lines of righteous endeavor. Then why do they discriminate against banks which are officered by men of energy? The Negro in all walks of life emulate their leaders; he goes to the lodge of his choice, sacrificing his time, money and influence in its behalf; he works night and day in order that his lodge may have money, but he does not care to follow the lead of men who ignore Negro banks any longer. He seems to think that there is something radically wrong when he is confronted with the cold and unyielding fact that the treasurers of these leading Negro societies will not trust their funds in the keeping of one who has taken the same obligation as himself.
These societies claim to be race-loving, standing for the betterment of the people each day; their officers are supposed to be teaching race pride. Which one of these orders will have race pride enough to take the Negro in its confidence by telling how much money they have on deposit with the Solvent Savings Bank, of Memphis; the Peoples Savings Bank and Trust Company, of Nashville, or the One-Cent Savings Bank, of Nashville? Please tell us where this money is. Is it in some favored white bank, whereby some one gets prestige at the expense of all the best people? Is it in some bank where the treasurer gets so much per? Explain it to the common people so they may know what to expect of their leaders.
The time now is that safe and sane business sense should prevail among Negroes. No institution can long survive when too much favoritism is in evidence, and there seems to be an abundance of it at this time, which blids no good for the race. It seems that the very people who are instrumental in all pending law suits against Negro banks enjoy their confidence to such an extent that all of the Negro treasurers put their lodge money into their keeping. "There is a reason, what is it?" Negro lodges are supposed to teach their membership to support institutions of the race. How can we expect to give our own people employment when our leaders will not take kindly to Negro banks and other Negro enterprises?
The average Negro wishes the banks of his race success. The leaders don't seem to care whether the banks succeed or not. The bank owned by colored men would be more able to take care of the business of its people, if only they would put their trust and money therein.
EDITORIAL CLIPPINGS
LET'S TRADE AT HOME.
The retail store properly conducted is an industry that should have the support of every toal citizen. Our pride in the home town is measured by our willingness to support its merchants and its industries.
It is not necessary to build a Chinese wall around our community to refuse to buy outside when we can do so to advantage. But the man who will send away for something that he can buy at home on as good or better terms needs education and lacks loyalty. Sometimes unfortunately, the very one who should be least liable to this criticism, the local merchant, is given to sending abroad for things which he ought to buy from his neighbors. Then, again, there is the farmer who finds it easier to mail his order to a big city than to come to town. Often he is handicapped by bad roads and thus has a valid excuse. But he ought to be able to buy by mail from our own merchants as safely and as advantageously as from some one at a distance with whom he has no acquaintance. If he is not furnished the facilities it is time for the improvement of our merchandizing methods. And he ought to have good roads that would make a trip to town a pleasure. Much remains to be done in strengthening our local business interests. We ought to give real support to any move that will tend to keep our money at home. —The Boley Progress.
THE SIGNAL CORPS IN SSHERM
MANS GUARDIAN
The most dramatic use of Signal Corps was connected with the successful defense of Allatoona, Sherman's reserve depot, in which were stored three millions of rations, practically undefended, as it was a distance in the rear of the army. Realizing the
utmost importance of the railroad north of Marietta and of the supplies to Sherman, Hood threw Stewart's Corps in the rear of the Union army, and French's division of about sixty-five hundred men was detached to capture Allatoona. With the Confederates intervening and telegraph lines destroyed, all would have been lost but for the Signal Corps station on Kenesaw Mountain. Corse was at Rome, thirty-six miles beyond Allatoona. From Vining's Station the message was flagged over the heads of the foe to Allatoona by way of Kenesaw and thence telegraphed to Corse, as follows; "General Corse: Sherman directs that you move forward and join Smith's division with your entire command, using cars if to be had, and burn provisions rather than lose them. General Vandever." At the same time a message was sent to Allatoona: "Sherman is moving with force. Hold Out;" and again: "Hold On. General Sherman says he is working hard for you."
Sherman was at Kennesaw all day, October 5th, having learned of the arrival of Corse that morning, and anxiously watched the progress of the battle. That afternoon came an unsigned despatch from Allatoona, sent during the engagement: "We are all right so far. Corse is wounded." Next morning Dayton, Sherman's assistant-adjutant-general, asked how Corse was and he answered: "I am short a cheekbone and an ear, but able to whip all h—yet." That the fight was desperate is shown by Corse's losses, seven hundred and five killed and wounded and two hundred captured out of an effective of about fifteen hundred.—From "The Signal Corps in the Civil War," by Major-General A. W. Greely, in the American Review of Reviews for July.
THE HIGH SCHOOL
The city of St. Louis has recently built a new colored high school. The story of the accomplishment of this great work reads like a bit of intrigue at the court of the later kings of France—of so great difficulty is it for colored men to get the least public recognition.
For years the colored high school was housed in the worst part of St. Louis, in the midst of white prostitutes and liquor dives; for years the colored people had to be content with cast-off white schoolhouses and inferior accommodations. Finally, repeated appeals for a larger and better high school brought a decision on the part of the Board of Education to enlarge the old school.
A vigilence committee of six colored men, headed by Charles H Dodge, was formed and they brought in so strong a petition that the board besitched. They could not find or afford a site for a new school, they complained. The committee of six found a site, but two small property owners would not yield. The committee of six sat up half the night with them and finally themselves paid the difference in price out of their own pockets. Then the white neighbors rose in arms. The newspapers flamed, and meetings were held to keep the Negro school house out of decent quarters; finally it was planned to seize the proposed site for a park. The matter came to a vote, the Negroes rallied, and the project was defeated (Does the black man need the ballot?)
At last all was arranged when the chairman of the committee of six was told confidentially that the board stood six to six on the project of the new Negro high school, and that unless a certain man was won over all was lost. Dodge went to see the man. The gentleman's secretary refused him admission. Dodge went to another man and got a letter. The vote stood seven to five, and black St. Louis got a one-hundred-thousand-dollar high school, the best equipped school of its kind in the country. Moral—Heaven and St. Louis help them who help themselves.—The Crisis for July.
WILL TAFT SUPPORT THE DEMO-
CRATS?
Since President Taft has laid a relentless hand on Congress and compelled it to deal with the Canadian bill, it can be no less than appropriate that Congress should pass up to him a series of bills revising Payne-Aldrich schedules, and giving him the responsibility either of approving them or voting them. He had no possible chance to get his reciprocity measure, except as it became the Underwood bill, bearing the name of the Democratic chairman of the Ways and Means Committee. Since Mr. Underwood and his friends have given the President his reciprocity, might they not fairly expect that the President in turn would help them to have their wool bill and their cotton bill, and also their free list bill brought to a successful enactment? There is the more reason for taking this view of it, because it was well known two years ago that Mr. Taft strongly desired the division of those textile schedules. By a stroke of his hand, Mr. Taft could easily qualify as the logical candidate of the Demo-

cratic party for the Presidential nomination next year. He has not been in any sense, on any subject, a partisan President—his original cabinet containing several Democrats; and he has worked more efficiently and harmoniously with the Democratic party in Congress than he has at any time with the Republicans. All of which goes to show that when practical emergencies arise, our parties have become rather a nominal affair and do not seem to stand out very clearly for contrasting programs. Perhaps we are approaching a period of party reorganization—or perhaps partisanship is outgrown.—From "The Progress of the World," in the American Review of Reviews for July.

As was stated yesterday, Johnnie was quick-witted, and he soon thought up the scheme of having been tied up by two Negroes. Barbedwire and all was the child of Johnnie's nimble brain, and he had already been captive for about twenty minutes when help arrived, as Johnnie knew it would. Then came a period of glory and honor—and then ruin, for when his comrades saw how the neighborhood had been aroused and the thorough search was being made by the police they squealed.

He has the distinction of being one of the four carriers appointed when the service was first inaugurated. The bride visited Nashville last summer to witness the graduation of her daughter, who finished at Fisk University with the class of 1910. Rumor has it that this wedding is the culmination of a love affair which began in Austin, Tex., during the childhood of the contracting parties, they having been separated afterwards, only to meet again and renew their romance.

A JAPANESE VIEW OF JAPAN'S NAVAL INADEQUACY.
To sum up: it is the kindly want of Japan's foreign critics to speak of the development of the Nippon navy as more dramatic and sensational than a fireside tale. It is. Still it must be confessed that her present sea strength is for from being adequate for the safety of her expanding empire. To dash one's head against a stone wall of any kind is neither profitable nor comfortable. For Nippon to pound her head against that of her financial limitations has the added bitterness of being foolish. Still she does it. She is doing it every year. This shows how bitterly she feels her gulling needs. And not even all the flattering talk of Captain Hobson and his entertaining school of Japanophobes consoles her troubled soul very much.—From "The Japanese Navy Since the War with Russia," by Adachi Kinnosuke, in the American Review of Reviews for July.

The Sunday-School Convention proper opened at ten o'clock Friday morning. The exercises that marked the opening having already been arranged, was carried out without any marked change. Immediately upon the reading of the President's address the convention committees made their reports. One of the most important of these was the report of the committee on permanent organization. This committee reported unanimously the re-election of all the old officers. Just before this, a motion had been made to suspend the rules and elect Rev. Seymour by acclamation. Rev. C H. Clark stated that he did not believe that Rev. Seymour wanted to take advantage of the situation which was brought about by such an excellent address, to which Rev. Seymour declared that if he was to be re-elected, he wanted it to come in its regular order. This brought much applause, and at the proper time the committee on permanent organization reported, its report being unanimously adopted. Another important committee was on time and place. They reported that the session for 1912 would be held at Whitesville, Tenn.

Opinions on Fisk
Shake Up.
‘We regret to learn, through the
Nashville Globe, that the color line
has been drawn at Fisk University,
one of the leading schools in the
country for colored students. Fisk
was the last place one would have
thought the color line would te
drawn, yet it seems to be a fact that
rresident Gates, of that institution,
did draw the color line during tie
commencement exercises. According
to the accoynt in the Globe the Drea
dent of that institution has drawn the
color line and fs somewhat affected
with color-phobia. It seems that one
Dr. Stowe, son of the noble character
of American letters, Harriet Beecher
Stowe,..had been invited to address
the graduates of Fisk, and in fact
did, “President Gates seemed quite
anxious to have the white citizens
of Nashville hear this distinguished
gentleman, as he was going to dis-
cuss, to some extent, the Civfl War
and the great book written by Harriet
Beecher Stowe promised them sepa-_
rato seats, It was rather singular
that he should be so anxious to have’
the people hear this particular ad-|
dress, as he had never before mani-
fested such anxiety. Yet one need
not be surprised at his anxiety after
they have read the address of Dr.
Stowe. It can be characterized as
a defense of secession and an apology
for the book written by Harrlet
Beecher stowe.
In speaking of the war he said:
“So, is it not perleetly evident that
there was a great rebellion, but that
that rebels were the northerners,
and that those who defended the con-
stitution as it was were the south-
erners, for they defended state’s
rights and slavery, which were dis-
tinctly entrenched within the consti-
tution,” Quite a remarkable state-
ment to be made at this late date.
‘Was it the defense ot secession in a
colored school that President Gates
wanted the people of Nashville to
hear that made him draw the color
line at this Negro university? Is it
possible that the colored people at
their own exercises. and in their
own schools must be discriminated
against? While every one is pleased
to have members of the other race
come among us, yet fhe day has long
since passed when the colot line can
be dravn in colored assemblies for.
the benefit of those who wish to visit
us, If those who wish to come into
the gatherings of the colored people
ate £0 prejudiced that they have to
have special arrangements made for
them, then the: gepherme would be
better honored by their absence than
with their presence.
President Gates, as well as all
who think as he does, well recognize
the fact that the day has tong since
pasted. when he or any other man
willbe allowed to remain at the head
of & colored institution who {s olor
blind, ‘There are too many good men
in this country who can recognize
worth even though {t be beneath @
plack skin, to haye such as his kind
at the head of a colored institution.
He will have to be taught the same
lecdon that was taught Dr. Gordon,
who at one time presided over the)
destiny of Howard University.
Wienever men at the head ot
colored Institutions fafl to recognize
the Negro as @ man and an American
citiven, who is not to be judged by
hic color, but by his worth, it Is time
for them to step down and out, and If
they will not step down of their own
accord they should be made do so.

cause, and it is of the opinion that
it will only be @ question of tins
when all of them will be dismissed.
We trust that this very reliable pa-
wer is in error. We hope that no
such plan is on foot, If the doors
of the Negro's own institutions are
going to be closed against him,
where will he find refuge? If it be
true such a plan is on foot then the
Negro should voice his protest in no

ally in the South, imorms us a
wholesale discharge of teachers has
been made at Fisk University, The
cause of the dismissal was not giv-
en, but there must havs been good
and sufficient reasons for such a radi-
cal change in the faculty. Still we
are pained to learn that after fifty
years of schooling, a Negro institu-
tion is unable to maintam in the
proper state of efficiency twelve per-
sons of their own race, capable of
discharging duties incumbent upon
those who are teaching the youth
of our race, ‘
It is deplorable indeed that six of
the members of this faculty were
summarily dismisse¢ without any
cause being assigned. We have no
faith in any white teacher in the
South who attempts to develop char-
acter in any Negro youth when.it is
the habit and custom in the South to
seek to degrade the manhood and wom-
anhood of our children, to teach them
‘that they are inferior people and to
‘inculcate in their mind, the attitude
of submission, Thanks to the preju-
dice in Kentucky, whose Legislature
forbids a Negro to teach a white per
son or a white person to teach a
Negro. This is a wholesome preju-
dice, for it makes the Negro sélf-re-
Hiant and gives him a confidence in
nis race and furnishes means of sub-
stance to those who, by toll and sacri-
five, have climbed the heights and
left all ignorance and rudeness and
uncouthness far below them,
Fisk University has done a great
and glorious work. It has trained
young men and women to go all over
tus land and in foreign lands to dis-
seminate, the knowledge there ac-
quired, to aid in the sointion of the
serious problems of life and to up-
lift races of mankind ang bring to
them the Divine light of knowledge;
but in this Instance sne has taken a
backward step that her friends
everywhere will hail with a regret
that is deep, lasting and bitter.
No teacher of the white race In
the South, accustomed as they are
to regarding our race with prejudice,
with bias and considerimg us but lit-
tle above the beast of the field, can
ever he capable of inspiring our youth
with the sublime principles of Lib-
erty, Fraternity and Bqpality, ¢
Their induction into Fisk's faculty
will sow the seeds thut will make
the growth which in the course of
time will choke and kill and smother
forever the fairest flowers that ever
Srew within a Negro's heart. No
greater shame can come upon our
rave than this acknowledgement, that
all these years of higher training, we
have to go into the camp of Negro
haters to get assistance to teach
what has theretofore easily beén, ac-
complished by those of our own
rare, What reasons they have for
this great change have never been
made public, but to tne casual ob-
server the reason does not appear on
the surface,
In UMnois and other States, the
position of teacher is contingent upon
merit and general efficiency, and the
color of skin cuts no figure, In
such communities, there is no bad
feeling on account of any changes
in the schools because, like the Civil
Service of the U. S. Government, It
‘is the rank and the abilityand not the
‘complexion of the applicant that de
‘terminés the appointment. These
communities therefore are in a po-
sition to command at all times the
most competent, the most faithful
and the most efficient persons for the
discharge ‘of their high trust. It is
largely for this reason that — the
North so far outranks the South in
general intelligencé and commercial
supremacy. Whoever finds a fact
can tell it to his neighbor, whatever
that neighbor's color may be. Bvery:
body helps to educate everybody else
he meets, and the sentiment that per-
vades every mind as expressed by the
great bard is, that “ignorance is the
curse of God, and knowledge the
only wing by which we fly to heaven

| WRK UNIVERSITY.
Fisk University, of Nashville,
Tenn., closed last week a memorable
year. Great institution or learning,
the training ground of a regiment of
men and women now distinguished
in the affairs of the country, it i
now only in the first years of its
larger usefulness. President Gategy
filled with the spirit and bubling over
with enthusiasm, Aside from his ex
perience ‘as an educator, in a wor!
of another character, of coyrse, he
enjoys the heritage left to him by
Brastus M. Cravath, who, like Samue
Chapman Armstrong, did nothing fo
applause and shiyked no duty. ,
President Gates will find that it will
do him no harm to hold the confi
dence of the colored people of Nash:
ville, to whom Fisk has always beer
the child of their pride. He may gair
all the applause from his white
neighbors, he may have heaped upor
him unstinted praise from the daily
press and the Confederate veterans,
but if he is unfortunate ‘n his r@la-
tionship with Nashville colored peo
ple, he wil! find his usefulness great:
ly impaired. He will find later that
lls work at Fisk is over. The pres!
dent of our greatest seat of higher
education we exhort to the exercise
of wisdom, and judgment, and colored
Nashville to the exercise of patience.

THE NEGRO'S POLITICAL MIS
TAKE.
‘The Negros monumental] politica!
blunder has been his conception ot
civic virtue, He has failed to intell
gently conceive his relative value tc
the government or to make his con
tribut‘on to its support. He has looked
upon politics as a personal asset, and
his party as a vehicle to advance hi
personal ends, Office for self meant
everything to him, and service tc
his country through h’s party has
never occurred to his mind. His po:
lucal rights and the rights of the
race, so far as his judgment went,
consists solely im his ability to get
office, and beyond office, the average
political Negro has not looked The
race has never once thought of poli-
tics as an institution calculated to add
its contribution to the national
growth. ‘The average political Negro
thinks his party is forever indebted
to himh, He never calculates that he
owes the party a service of debt. He
has yet to learn that when he ac-
‘cepts a political place at the hands of
his party, he not only lessens his use-
fulness, ut he ends his influence so
far as helping anybody else.
‘The colored political leader does no
regard increase in public school
funds, public utilities, helpful legisia-
tion, a8 party recognition, he recog-
nizes nothing as political recognition
‘except office, and he is willing to sell
every privilege and every manhood
right of race for office. What the
race needs to develop is, not a set of
hungry officeseekers, but a set of po
litical leaders who do not want office,
but who want political power and ‘n-
fluence only for the purpose of help
ing other men who are Willing to lose

WOMEN'S CLUBS CARING FOR
YOUNG WOMEN.
By Mrs, W. A. Hunton,
The Young Women’s Christian As-
sociation is no longer an experiment,
but has fully proven itself one of the
Keys to most satisfactory success in
the attainment of all that is shighest
and best In the fourfold nature of
womanhood. It is constantty demon-
strating, ité ‘wonderful adaptability to
meet the varying conditions and
heeds of each generatton of women.
It is not i strange, therefore, that
NASHVILLE GLOBE, FRIDAY, JULY 7, 1911.
many of the intelligent colored wom-
en have been quick to discern the
magnificent opportunity offered — by.
this movement for the solution of.
their problems, 5
Some four years ago, while the new
national board of Young ‘Yomen’s
Christian Association of © United
‘States decided to extend its manifoyd
supervision to the work being done
for colored young women, a repre-
‘sentative wag sent to study that par-
‘ticular field, Among other facts as-
certained, it was noted that in four-
teen of our educational institutions,
associations for young women had
been organized, although. hardly half
that number were doing any. effec-
tive work, Several’ city associations
had ilkewise been launched, but only
four .were doing anything apprecia-
ble along Association lines.
In the spring of 1908 Miss Bliza-
beth Ross was called by the national
board to be the first student secre-
tary for work among colored wom-
‘en, and, after some special prepara-
ton, began her vigorous and remark-
‘ably successful labors the following
fall, Whether at Conferences at Sil-
iver Bay, on beautifu! Lake George,
or at work at headquarters in. New
rork, or in college visiting, the mag-
netic personality of thts young wom-
an left its impress, and has proven
of inestimable value in these pioneer
days of Association effort. Sne has
deinontsrated by her splendid powers
the possibility of our college-trained
girls serving their generation in a
new and important movement for
the salvation of womanhood.
Student conferences were held
within two years at Talladega Col-
lege, Claflin, Tougaloo and Fisk Uni-
versities, and fifty-two student or-
ganizations, in as many educational
institutions, quickly supplanted thie
fourteen found in 1908. Those who
were forttinate enouga to attend the
Fisk Conference and to sity in the
various sessions, hearing methods ex-
Pounded and feports read by the en-
‘thuslastic student delegates, or who
could watch the sea of eager respon-
sive student faces as they sat under
the spell of those last hours in the
Meharry Auditorium, will never
doubt the beneficent influence of the
Association movement on the lives
of the thousands of young women
now in school.) ‘The magnificent pos-
sibilities of the Association are most
naturally presented first of all to the
student world because it is from the
output of our higher educational in-
stitutions that we look for leader-
ship in this great movement, From
this rank we must choose the Asso-
ciation secretary, or, better stated,
the’ executive-a woman who knows
and has great sympathy for girls—
who is able to comprehend and meet
the needs in the spiritual, social, ed-
ucational and economic conditions
that surround her. Our largest “need
at present {s mot more associations,
although that need at several centers
is alarmnigly pressing. We must
first find trained leaders. To that
end three young colored women,
graduates respectively of Radcliffe,
Hartshorn and Fisk, will speng the
summer months at the National
Training School, New York City, pre-
paring for future service in Associa-
tion work.
The city Association presents a
fleld of immense opportunity, as yet,
scarcely appteciated.
Four years ago we reported four
associations; we must now mention
five others, with beginmngs in sey-
eral additional cities, and calls for
organization coming from still other
cities. For want of close supervi-
sion, intelligent volunteer service
d@ money, the problem of maintain-
ea city Association rs a difficult
me; but the results already _at-
ained in New York, Brooklyn, Bal-
imore, Washington, Norfotk and St.
Paul prove, without doubt, the pos-
‘ibility and vilue of the movement.
