NASHVILLE GLOBE. VOL. VI. PRES. JONES MAKES REPLY TO AN ARTICLE IN LAST WEEK'S GLOBE Says Turner Normal Will Remain WHERE IT IS NOW LOCATED— THINKS REPORTER HAS BEEN MISLED — CHARGES THAT STATEMENT AS TO LOCATION IS FALSE—CLAIMS THAT THE PEOPLE ARE SATISFIED WITH SHELBYVILLE— APPOINTMENT OF COMMITTEE A COMPROMISE —DOES NOT APPROVE OF MEMPHIS—SCHOOL WILL NOT BE MOVED AT PRESENT HE SAYS —OTHER STATEMENTS. Dr. J. A. Jones, president of Turner Normal College, at Shelbyville, takes the Globe reporter to task for statements in last week's issue concerning that school. He says in full: Mr. Editor: In justice to the cause which we represent as the official head of Turner Normal College, you will please do me the kindness of replying to the article appearing in your paper, last week, under the caption, "Nearly $4,000, Turner Normal." Your reporter was doubtless mislead, in that he made statements which were altogether erroneous. I would not ask for the privilege of a reply but for the reason that the article in question is damaging. I hereby invite a refutation of what I will say. First, your reporter states that the "matter as to the location of Turner Normal was left in a tentative state." That statement is false. The matter of location was definitely settled. Secondly, your reporter says that "it seems that a majority of the ministers favor a change" of location. That is certainly untrue; for if it was so, there is nothing on earth—no law among the sons of men that could prevent them from doing so. He further says that "it was evident from the expressions of the several speakers on last Tuesday that the question of a location is not yet settled by any means." That may be the conclusion reached, by the biased mind of your reporter, but the truth is, there is absolutely no sentiment among the people who own Turner Normal College, to change its location. I admit that there are some of the best men in the church, who have all along preferred that a different place might have been selected for the school. But every one to a man who holds this opinion, is some one who has come to Tennessee twenty years after the work had been established, or, being residents of Tennessee, had nothing to do with the present location of the school. They cannot possibly have the same kind of feeling for the institution as those of us who have made the school at its present location, a part of our life's work. I am willing at any time, to test the majority vote as to whether or not the people want to tear up our well-begun work at Shelbyville, and attempt to start afresh anywhere else in the state. Your reporter truthfully said that the Building Committee is charged with the duty of investigating "whether or not the Trustees have the power to erect a building at Shelbyville under the present charter." But that was conceded as a compromise proposition, in order to save time, and give the opposition no further excuse for delaying the work of real progress. By this movement, we have made ourselves ridiculous in the eyes of the world. For who does not know that the trustees of an institution have the authority to improve the property, intrusted to their care. One brother did go so far as to offer a resolution to carry the matter back to the annual conferences, and get their consent before we proceed to build. This was done in the face of the fact that the annual conferences had each assessed themselves NASHVILLE, TENN., FRIDAY, AUGUST 4, 1911. for four years, consecutively, with the view of raising moey to put the building up, and were really complaining that the work had been so long delayed. Now, it would be interesting to us all to know who that "one trustee" was, who was heard to advance the idea of "giving the people a chance to vote on a location." Great scheme, that would be, to ask the people whether or not they are bothered, when they have shown no signs of disturbance or dissatisfaction. Your reporter states, further that "several cities and towns have been bidding for this school for years." If you will publish the name of one town or city that has made a "bid for this school in a thousand years, I will agree to take the libel, Shelbyville, excepted. There you are. The people are perfectly satisfied, and I challenge any statement to the contrary. Of course, I understand that you know what a "bid" is. You named Memphis, Clarksville and Nashville. But that was newspaper talk. Name the "bids" of these cities which have so much desired this all-important institution. You also mention what the men from the western part of the state say with reference to the large local support the school would get if it were located in Memphis. That is true, and what they say, is true. I believe that if such a school was located in Memphis that city would fill it up in a "jiffy." But is that what we want? Do the African Methodists of Tennessee mean to operate a school for the special benefit of any certain community? If so, then I say let us go to Memphis, and let the rest of the state take care of itself. Colleges are not established for the benefit of certain communities, especially church colleges. Public schools are located with special reference to benefiting the youth in certain communities. The difference is, the public schools go to the people; the people go to the college. I have no prejudice whatever, against either Nashville or Memphis. God forbid! But is the A. M. E. Church in Tennessee prepared to attempt to do the work in those cities which the Boards of Education ought to do? Grant that either of these cities would do the very thing that the Memphis advocates say they would do—fill up the school with local patronage, what is going to become of the rest of the children of the A. M. E. Church throughout the state, who are supporting the institution? Now, in conclusion, your reporter makes the statement that the matter of changing the location "is in such an unsettled condition" etc. I do not know where he got his information. I want to say the school will never be moved till the conferences become filled up with a class of men who are nothing for the interest of the church in the state, who would as soon tear up as to build up. When the constructionists are displaced by the destructionists, and when self-seekers take the place of self-sacrificing men, then, and not until will our work at Shelbyville be scattered to the wind, and Tennessee educational efforts be a thing of the past. Yours for the Cause of Christian Education, J. A. JONES, President, Turner Normal College. Shelbyville, Tenn. MRS. KENNEY DELIVERS AN ADDRESS Mrs. Maria C. Kenney remained over Monday after the State Convention and delivered one of her favorite lectures on "Heredity," touching upon other subjects, under the auspices of the Missionary Circle of the Fifth Ward Church. Hundreds were present. The lecture was received with the wildest enthusiasm, and evidently marks the beginning of a new awakening of Christian work among the women of Clarksville.

DISTINGUISHED LADY SHOWN THE CITY—HIGHLY PLEASED— RACE PROGRESS NOTABLE— ADDRESS TO LARGE AUDIENCE IN MEHARRY AUDITORIUM— OFF FOR MEMPHIS. Meharry Auditorium was crowded to overflowing last night to listen to the address of Miss Elizabeth C. Carter, of New Bedford, Mass., president of the National Federation of Colored Women's Clubs, and was the guest of the City Federation while here. The committee on Thursday in the foremonto took the distinguished visitor for a drive over the city. Many places of interest were visited and when the party returned Miss Carter expressed herself as highly pleased with the progress and thrift evidenced by the Negroes of Nashville. She was especially impressed with the number of homes owned by colored people and the manner in which they are kept. When the president announced that the exercises would begin, the spacious Meharry Auditorium was filled with Nashville's elect. The enthusiasm of the assemblage attested to the high esteem in which Miss Carter THE CURIOUS WOMAN [Name] [Name] MISS ELIZABETH C. CARTER is held by the local club women. The speaker was introduced by Mrs. A. O. Kenney, who gave the audience a glimpse of what was to follow. Mrs. Jackson read a short paper on club work in Nashville. Miss Carter arose gracefully, and in a modest, quiet, but forceful manner poured into the hearts of her hearers her knowledge of club life among the Negro women of America. The speaker reviewed the work of the various women's clubs from their organization down to the present, and the work being done by the Negro women is truly worthy of unstinted commendation. Miss Carter made it clear that it was a false statement made by a white man from the state of Missouri that caused the women of New England to organize the first club, and that the large number of dependent Negroes in the East and the continual influx of raw recruits from the south made it necessary that the women's clubs be maintained. Coming to Nashville the speaker said she found much to interest her, but was alarmed to find no rescue home nor reformatory for youthful offenders. She urged the women of this city and of the state to get down to actual work and do something tangible. She especially urged the women to be united and work unselfishly for the uplift of the people. Miss Carter left Friday morning for Memphis, where she is to speak Friday night. Miss Elizabeth C. Carter, one of the leading colored women of today as a club woman, has a reputation as such from the Pacific to the Atlantic. As --- president of the National Association of Colored Women, to which office she was elected August, 1908, she ranks with the leaders of her race in the United States. Miss Carter is the only colored woman who has graduated from the Harrington Normal Training School, and was the first woman of her race to be appointed as a public school teacher in New Bedford. It is here that she was born, and after graduating from the New Bedford High School she taught for a short time in the Howard Colored Orphan asylum in Brooklyn. MASS CONVENTION There will be a mass convention at Hortense hall under the auspices of the United Helping Society of Tennessee for the purpose of organizing a stock company to purchase 1,350 acres of land at Hortense in Dickson county.

Fugerson, of 1116 Jackson street, left the city last Tuesday for Oklahoma City, Okla., to visit her sister, Mrs. Wm. Vivett, whom she has not seen for several years. Mrs. Vivett, formerly Miss Allison, has many friends and acquaintances here, having lived here years ago. While in the state of Oklahoma Mrs. Fugerson will visit Norman, Okla., and other points. Mrs. Vivett was here seven years ago. MARTIN-BEAL Miss Janie Beal and Mr. Edward Martin were married at the residence of Mrs. Martin, 1002 Fourth avenue, North, August 2 at 8 o'clock p. m. The bride was handsomely gowned and the groom wore a suit suitable for the occasion. The house was beautifully decorated with all of the season's flowers. The Black Art Harmony Quartet furnished music for the occasion. ODD FELLOWS COMING NEXT WEEK. Special to the Globe. Chattanooga, Tenn., Aug. 2. The news comes down in the line that all things are ready for the coming grand lodge of Odd Fellows, which convenes here next week. Grand Master Fort gives a glowing account of the rapid growth and state-wide interest manifested by members of the Order. He has just finished a tour of the state. He laid the corner stone to a new hall at Mt. Carmel, Tipton County, and visited lodges at various points. He reports a large and commodious hall being erected at Martin, where, it will be remembered, the lodge lost its hall about one year ago by fire. Plans are on foot at other points for new halls. The political arena is full of those who wish to serve and ere the host curls the flag for the homeward march many of those who "also ran" will be found a few paces from the stake. Rumor has it that things are so mixed and the campaign so quietly waged that the slate maker fears lest his labor go to naught and the boys in the trenches teach him how futile are the efforts of the forecast. Amid it all the genial grandmaster goes on visiting lodges and assisting them to clear up the inconsistencies of past ignorance, explaining recent enactments and changes, suggesting such reforms in internal management as will help, and giving inspiration to the weaker brother.

Chattanooga, Tenn., Aug. 3.—The forty-first annual Grand Communication of the Most Worshipful Grand Lodge of Ancient, Free and Accepted Masons for the State of Tennessee and appendant bodies began their meetings in this city last Sunday at Wiley Memorial Church, Where Rev. E. H. Forest, the pastor, preached the annual sermon to the Grand Commandery Knights of Templar and visiting members of the order. The sermon was well attended by the Masons and the general public. Rev. Forest preached an excellent sermon and eulogized the order to the highest. On Monday morning the annual Grand Conclave of the Grand Commandery was held with Sir W. O. Smith, the Grand Commander, presiding. At three o'clock p. m., the grand street parade took place. The streets of this historic city were astir all day with members of the fraternity, getting ready for the grand celebration, and by the time for the march to start the assemblage presented a striking appearance. The line of march was taken up, headed by a brass band. They marched through the principal streets of the city, headed by Grand Master Henry, of Chattanooga. The line of march was fully a mile long and wound up at the Auditorium on East Ninth street, where the Grand Lodge sessions are being held. Little business was done in the Grand Lodge in the afternoon other than assembling and getting ready for the work of the week, after which adjournment was taken for supper. At eight o'clock p. m., the Grand Commanderies assembled in the Auditorium for a drill and reception. This feature of the meeting was carried out to the satisfaction of all. The drill of the Commanderies brought forth applause of the large assemblage on many occasions and it was hard for a popular verdict to be rendered. At 8:30 o'clock p. m., Tuesday the annual grand banquet was held at the Cherry Street Hall, to which all members of the order and prominent citizens were admitted. Ample arrangements had been made for this affair by the local committee under A. S. Scruggs, Chairman, and C. W. Hamilton, Secretary. The hall was beautifully decorated and a scene that cannot be excelled for beauty and symmetry greeted the eyes of the hall door was entered. From 8:30 o'clock till the wee hours of the night the delicacies that had been prepared for the occasion were enjoyed by all present. Speech making was indulged in and the members of the order enjoyed themselves and for the time being forgot the arduous task that lay before them for the next day. Tuesday morning at 8:30 o'clock, the Grand Commander of the Most Worthy Grand Lodge assembled, Grand Master J. A. Henry, presiding, and Grand Secretary W. S. Thompson, of Nashville, called the roll and the delegates at once got down to business. The Grand Master delivered his annual address, which was full of wholesome advice and encouragement. He reviewed the work of the year, which showed that the Grand Lodge of this state was in a prosperous condition and that harmony existed from one end of the state to the other. The speaker was constantly interrupted with applause (Cotinued on Page 8.) Out of Town Notes. 2 The Sunday-School Convention of the Paris District Central Tennessee Conference, A. M. E.

San Antonio, Texas, August 1, 1911. At an enthusiastic meeting of the citizens of this city, in which some of the best known men of San Antonio participated, it was agreed that for first time, this historic commonwealth would be represented at the coming session of the National Negro Business League, which is to be held in Little Roek, Ark., this month. Plans have already been perfected for the permanent organization of a local league. The determination to have this league organized became more pronounced at the smoker tended to a former Texan at the Odd Fellows Hall last week when Henry Allen Boyd was entertained. While the organization is really embryonic the determination is so well known that already the consensus of opinion is that J. T. Walton, M. D., the power behind the throne and the moving spirit of the Walton Realty and Construction Company will be selected to represent the Negroes of San Antonio at the coming National Negro Business League. Dr. Walton's report on the doings of the Afro-American will be an eye opener, as the progress in this section of the state has been phenomenal in the last seven years. Quite a number of the members of the Business League, in the person of Mr. R. C. Moore, the National Organizer, W. E. King, of Dallas, and R. C. Houston, of Ft. Worth, have visited San Antonio giving advice with much encouragement to its citizens. DR. ELLINGTON RETURNS FROM JACKSON. Jackson, Penn., Aug. 1. The Berean Baptist Church, of Jackson, celebrated her pastor, Rev. T. J. Goodall's, first anniversary, Sunday, July 30th. The celebration was the fitting closing of a splendid year's work, under the progressive leadership of Rev. Goodall. The church is enjoying an era of great prosperity, both spiritually and financially. Pastor Goodall has the respect of his community and the love and confidence of his members. He has paid off the church debt, and is now preparing to remodel, enlarge and beautify the church edifice. The members are delighted with the fact that the Baptist State Convention accepted their invitation and will hold its next annual session with them, October, 1912. Rev. W. S. Ellington, of Nashville, Editorial Secretary of the Naltonal Baptist Publishing Board and pastor of the First Baptist Church, preached Rev. Goodall's anniversary sermon, Sunday night and delivered one of his popular lectures to the citizens of Jackson last night. He returned home highly pleased with his trip. Y. M. C. A. NOTES. The meeting at the rooms, last Sunday, was a largely attended one, and many took part in the discussion under the topic "What We Need Most." Prof. John Ira Watson made the principal talk. To a large degree the thoughts were in accord with last Sunday's Bible lesson. These meetings are of great help to all and each man should take the opportunity to attend. On next Sunday Mr. E. T. Keller will lead in the discussion of the topic "Launching Out Into Y. M. C. A. Work." All men are invited. Meeting at 4 p. m., at 447 Fourth avenue, North. One hour only. The Religious Work Committee, headed by Prof F. N. Green, held a very successful meeting last Monday --- NASHVILLE GLOBE, FRIDAY, AUGUST 4, 1911 evening, at the residence of Mr. J. P. Porter. Mr. A.

WILLIAM KING, A FRIEND TO THE SLAVES. Who died in Chatham, Ontario, Canada, January 5, 1895, was born in Londonderry, Ireland, November 11, 1812. Although born in Ireland, was of Scotch descent; was reared in Ireland; received a liberal education and entered the Presbyterian ministry. Upon coming to America he located in one of the Southern States, where for a time he was a teacher in a young ladies' seminary. He became a staunch advocate of anti-slavery. Later on he married the daughter of a planter who subsequently inherited six or eight slaves. These were brought to Canada and liberated. They settled at Buxton, Raleigh township, in the county of K nt, Province of Ontario, where he purchased several hundred acres of land. The house which he purchased was greatly enlarged after his coming and is still standing. It is an immense one story log structure, the roof being broken by dormer windows and even now in its delapidated state gives one an impression of hospitality. It stands well back from the road facing the broad, high posted gateway and in sight of the gate stands the lodge, a relic of Southern ideas. Rev. Mr. King did much to assist escaping slaves to reach a point of safety. His work in fact was the beginning of the historic "underground railway" which ran from the Ohio These runaways were supplied with river across lake Erie into Canada. These runaways were supplied with land and in time many of them acquired deeds of their holdings. Hundreds came to the Buxton settlement and descendents of them are still there, with an occasional ex-slave still surviving who delights in relating the virtues of the Rev. Wm. King. With funds received from sympathetic friends in Great Britain he built the Presbyterian church at Buxton and being a man of original ideas and possessed of surprising energy he inaugurated many movements for the betterment of the community. So and favorably known was he among those active and prominent in the anti-slavery movement that visitors of note often visited him. Harriet Beecher Stowe once visited him at Buxton and it is said on good authority that the character Clayton in her novel "Dred Scott" was in part a portrait of Mr. King's early life. He was a man of great influence not only among the colored people but among all who knew him and with his death passed a noble character whose name will long be cherished by all who had the good fortune to claim him as an acquaintance. Many of the descendants of those slaves whom Mr. King helped have become prosperous farmers and successful business men in the nearby towns. It is understood that Mrs. Annie Straith Jamieson, Ashbury Park, New Jersey, has written the history of Mr. King's connection with the Elgin association which was largely instrumental in assisting the runaway slaves. The book has not yet been published but undoubtedly will be in the near future and it should prove a very interesting story. PRESIDENT BUCHANAN AND FAMILY ON A VACATION TRIP Normal, Ala., July 25, 1911. President Walter S. Buchanan of the Agricultural and Mechanical College at Normal, Alabama, with his wife and little son, Councill, accompanied by Mrs. Ellen M. Darnell, sister of the late Mrs. W. H. Councill, left Normal Monday to join the special pullman party of teachers from Birmingham to attend the National Association of Colored Teachers at St. Louis. President Buchanan is to address the St. Louis meeting on the "Distinctive Work of the Agricultural and Mechanical College." From St. Louis, President Buchanan and family will go to Cincinnati, where Mrs. Buchanan and the baby will spend several weeks at the home of Dr. M. C. B. Mason. President Buchanan will go on from Cincinnati to Chicago, thence to the East in the interest of the school. He reports that the school is in better shape than ever, that the academic and industrial faculties are stronger and that the general facilities are more adequate than has ever been true in the history of the school. Owing to a lack of funds with which to maintain it, it is very likely that the night school at the Agricultural and Mechanical College will be discontinued. This is to be regretted because many of the most promising and deserving young men and women of the Institution have been enrolled for the past two years in this department. President Buchanan has made a praiseworthy effort to put a common English education and a trade within the reach of every ambitious Negro boy and girl of push and purpose who is willing to work for the development of his brains. It is a sad blow to the cause of Negro education when poor, but worthy young Negroes are denied such excellent educational opportunities as President Buchanan opened to the students of Normal two years ago. Many worthy men and women among the Negroes got their education under trying difficulties and through their own sweat and labor and against what in many cases seemed to be overwhelming odds. This was true in the case of President Buchanan himself, who seventeen PIANOS BEAUTIFUL MANY The finest piano the produce, extra massive ished; made only in the burl walnut and finely quarter sawed oak; and out, is what the lishing Board offers in pianos.

No doubt there are among the one hundred twenty-five night school pupils at Normal many young men and women who are just as earnest and anxious and deserving as were any of the men and women who stand in the front ranks of this country's most progressive citizens of today and it is to be hoped that the night school which offers them their only opportunity for getting an education and a trade will not have to be closed because President Buchanan has not the funds with which to keep it open. Five thousand dollars per year will establish a Student Labor Fund for the purpose of paying poor students for the services which they perform for the benefit of the Institution in their efforts to work their way through school. This amount will also be sufficient to pay for the fuel, lights and salaries of the night school. President Buchanan feels confident that if he can but make the needs of his Institution known among them, philanthropic friends will make it possible for the night school to remain open. The night school pupils work at their trades during the day constructing buildings, roads, fences, water works, sewerage systems, cultivating the farm and doing other things for the permanent improvement of the Institution while at the same time they are learning a specific line of work by which they wil earn their living when they leave school. Thus it is seen that the night school serves a double purpose; first, it enables poor students to work their way through school; secondly, it enables the school to get certain permanent improvements which it could not get without such labors as these students render. President Buchanan and his work have the unqualified endorsement of city officials of Huntsville, Alabama, which is the market center just four miles from Normal, and of county officials of Madison County and of eminent representatives of the state, while Booker T. Washington, Robert C. Ogden, and Congressman W. A. Richardson of Alabama, are lending their moral support. * * * * * FOR SALE STYLES IN GRADES. at money and skill can be case, extra finely fin- he best fancy figured by figured mahogany or double veneered inside National Baptist Pub- n their many styles of 5, 6, 10, 12 and 14. instruments is unexcelled. tone is clear, liquid, trained and affords in all my clear and equal, and nature which, under the houses the enthusiasm of les and terms are with- Publishing Board, VENUE, NORTH, TENNESSEE. 89 ```markdown ``` NASHVILLE GLOBE.

FRIDAY. AUGUST 4. 1911. Business Opportunities There are numerous opportunities for Negro men to do business in Nashville. This can readily be seen by anyone who will take the time to visit the portions of this city where the Negroes live in numbers. In some cities in our country, especially those bordering on the Mason and Dixon Line and farther north and east, we often hear of attempts to segregate Negroes. All of these attempts are of course met with stubborn opposition, and in some cases the tide is turned in the favor of the black man. But in Nashville there has not as yet appeared any cause for such a move on the part of anyone. The Negroes of this city show by their actions that they prefer to segregate themselves and as a consequence, they are buying homes in certain localities, and the amusing part of it is they are actually forcing white people to move out of their communities. They are not asking that a law be enacted or an ordinance passed to accomplish this, but they have, instead, adopted the progressive home-buying method, and recently whole blocks of white renters have been forced to pack up and move. These communities of home-owning Negroes offer exceptional opportunities for the Negroes who are commercially inclined, to do business. Grocery stores, drug stores, laundries, ice-cream parlors, dry goods stores, milinery stores and such like are businesses that communities necessarily must have, and it need not be thought that any community will suffer for them. Somebody will be there to supply the wants of the people, and while the Negroes would prefer to have Negro merchants in their communities, there is no law that will bar the white man out and he will be there with the goods to sell if the people are there to buy. But those Negroes who intend to do business owe it to themselves and to the race to seek out these communities where there is promise of success and get in on the ground floor with whatever business they intend to engage in. For example, a stretch of territory, extending from Eleventh avenue, North, on the east to West Nashville or Newtown on the west, between the Nashville and Chattanooga R. R. and Jefferson street and at some points two blocks north of Jefferson, is settled now largely by Negroes, who are home owners, and they are buying homes in that portion of the city at a rapid rate. These people must be supplied with the necessities of life. There is not a drug store nor a first-class ice-cream parlor and only two groceries in the whole stretch of territory owned and operated by Negroes. There was one drug store, but that has recently been sold to a white man. So the opportunity is there and if the Negro does not grasp it the white man will. There ought to be a first-class, up-to-date drug store, with a modern soda fountain and ice-cream parlor attached, where every want in that line could be supplied. The same thing should be true in the grocery, millinery and dry goods line. There is also a splendid opening for a large steam laundry right in that territory. The people are there and they are there to stay, and if Negroes, who intend to do business, do not take advantage of the opportunity, white men will. As proof of this fact, it is only necessary to cite the drug store referred to above that was purchased at a faney price by a white man because he knew what was in store. He realized that Fisk University and the State Normal School would be great feeders for such an institution. Real estate men are buying property in that vicinity by the block. One of the white laundries of the city is preparing to make a special effort to control the Negro patronage. White men are investing largely in parks for colored people only. They are going out after the business and unless the Negro prepares to take care of it himself the white people will. The claim that the Negroes will not patronize Negroes is all bosh. They will patronize a black man more readily than they will a white man if that black man gives them as good service, as they will be compelled to pay him good money. But, unless the service is as good as the money the patron will gradually pull away. All things being equal, any Negro prefers to trade with another Negro in preference to a white man. But, a Negro should not expect Negroes to pay him 50 cents for an article that he can purchase from a white man for even 40 cents, for the Negro does not get good wages for his labor and circumstances force him to economize in every way he can. So when he would pay his brother in black more for an article than he is compelled to pay a white man, he cannot do it for the simple reason he is not able. These business opportunities exist in Nashville and elsewhere, and if the Negroes do not grasp them now the time will come in the near future when they cannot. Pay Your Poll Tax. In a few days a supplementary registration will be held in this county. All Negroes who have not registered, or who have moved since the last registration, should seek out the places of registration and qualify to that extent to exercise the elective franchise. Also every Negro man ought to pay his own poll tax and fully qualify to vote in all elections. There will be held in this city in the fall the regular city election and every Negro ought to vote. We do not say for whom; that, we believe, should be left to the individual. But we do say it is the bounden duty of every man to cast his ballot on election day for some candidate for every office in the city, county, state, or nation. Negroes are charged with some things of which they are not guilty. Recently much has been said about the Negro's attitude towards the prohibition cause. The truth is not told in many instances, but the charge is made, nevertheless, and is being repeatedly made. The charge the supporters of the prohibition cause seem delighted to make is that eighty-five per cent. of the Negroes vote against prohibition, and in all contests where the liquor traffic is in danger a large majority of them vote with the whiskey interest. Nobody has been able to prove this assertion to be true, but every indication points towards its refutation. Negroes, however, should not allow these charges to frighten them, or to daunt them in the performance of their duty. All fair people look at the prohibition cause the same as Governor Wilson, of New Jersey, does, for when he was recently approached on this subject, he flat-footedly refused to lend his political influence to the aid of the prohibition cause and he gave as his reason that: "It is not sound policy to allow a political party to be wrecked on the rocks of prohibition." So declared Gov. Woodrow Wilson, who was sought to aid the approaching campaign of the Anti-Saloon League in New Jersey. The Governor so declared to Rev. Thos. B. Shannon. Superintendent of the League. parlor in that same grocery, and G. Rowland Monroe, its counsel. The Governor added htat in his opinion the liquor question had no place in politics, and it was purely a moral and social problem. weeks with her of Columbus, O. Messrs. S. L. W. Owen, of U. Sunday. The position of Governor Wilson is proper, and if the supporters of the cause in Tennessee and other states would take that stand, the cause would not suffer as it has. But the vital status of this cause in Tennessee is that those people who are fighting for prohibition are at the same time slyly, but surely, laying plans to put the Negroes out of politics. They have used him well and will use him again, but all to the one end, namely, that they may get full control of the political machine in this state, and if they accomplish this they will then throw off the mask and stand up in the open and declare that we are the "Lilly Whites," or in other words, this is the white man's party and the white man's victory. They will deny even as they do now that the Negro had any part in helping them to gain their eminence. The only way to ward off this danger is to pay your poll tax, register and vote with your friends. Senate Dumping Ground. From all accounts it seems that Vardaman has been elected to the United States Senate from Mississippi. Another pal for Ben Tillman. It would be a wonderful quartet if Hoke Smith could be persuaded to take the job he worked so hard to get. Think of it! Ben Tillman, Jeff Davis, Hoke Smith and L. K. Vardaman. Wonder what they will do when they all get there? The states that have sent these fellows up are not to be laughed at after all, but the august body of lawmakers will blush in shame when they awake to a realization of the truth that the Senate is being used as a dumping ground by the states for the undesirables. We do not see how the election of Vardaman will affect conditions in his state to any extent, for the Census Bureau has just given out that 60 per cent of the farms in Mississippi are operated by Negroes, and it is reasonable to suppose that the crop yields will be even better with Vardaman out of the state than they would with him at home. While Admiral Togo is in this country our naval officers will be as quiet as mice, lest the old man from the Hermit Kingdom get to shooting. He who robs a newspaper man of his cash getteth nothing, for he is always shy; but he that steals his thunder taketh that he should get by "credit" only.

The above is the picture of Prof. J, F. Booker, of ‘Trenton, Tenn,, who has an enviable record'in the edu- ‘cational, fraternal and _ business world. His reputation for energetic endeavor will bear favorable com- parison with any Negro in Tennessee. Prof. Booker went to Trenton fifteen years ago to take charge of the city school. He has held the position for fifteen years, winning the esteem of all people of both races. He is easily the leading educator of that Section and ranks with the leading ones of the state. He is eagerly Sought by county superintendents and teachers to hold the various teachers institutes. He was conduc- tor of the State Teachers’ Institute formerly held at Union City. As a business man and financier he stands out pre-eminently. He has prov- en his worth to the citizens of Gib- son county by his safe and sane meth- od of “doing things.” When he first came to Trenton, just out of school and head over heels in debt, litthé was it thought that fifteen years later al) debts would be paid, leaving a balance on tht right side of the ledger of over ten thousand dollars. Prof. Booker owns valuable property, both city and county. On his farm, which is the acme of excellence, you fnd the best strains of live stock and the most improved methods of farming.

MeGann has just been highly honored, having been appointed Dean of the Gilbert In- dustrial College, at Baldwyn, La. This school is one of the best known in the state of Louisiana, being located in Bayou Teche county, which was has seven large buildings, brick and frame, and has in its own right 1300 Longfellow's Evangeline. ‘The school fertile acres of cane and rice land. It also operates its own electric light plant, in fact it is one of the best schools of the Methodist Episcopal Church, according to the information received in Nashville. Miss McGann is the first woman to be thus honored by the Methodist Episcopal Church to uch @ position. It will be remember- ed that she is a graduate of the Pearl High School of this city, and that she is related to some of the leading families of Nashville. It is stated hat Miss McGann was not an appli- vant for the position, but that the osition sought her. She has been onnected with the school for the past 3 Sonal worth at stake to insure the Success of the same. Among others were T. P. Turner, of Pulaski; Levi |Orr, of Memphis, and W. 8. ‘thom. son, cf Nashville. These men joined him in making the five thousand dol- lar bond to the State of Tennessee, which tht $2,500.00 sinking fund put Into operation this most excellent plan, which has been a God-sent to destitute and homeless wives and children of departed brothers, He first saw the light of day in “old Maury,” which has always been the home of past masters in politics. He was taught in the political schools ot Whitthorne, Hughes and Carmack, thus learning to be a judge of men and methods. Heisknownas a good forecaster of political results, in nine times out of ten he is right. As in politics so he is in fraternal contests, invariably choosing the winner long before the contest takes place. : Prof. Booker has been appointed special deputy by Hon, G. T, Taylor, Treasurer of Tennessee. His duties are to examine the books and papers of all Negro fraternal societies doing an insurance business in the state. Associated with him in this work is Prof. W. S. @hompson, of Nashville, This is an abpointment of much re- sponsibility, requiring a man‘of very high character and business ability. This appointment has been well re- ceived by the colored people. We congratulate Mr. Taylor as having shown much wisdom in the selection, as Prof Booker will go straight to the bottom of things and do strict and impartial justice to all concerned. He will be a candidate to succeed himself as Endowment Secretary at the meeting of Grand Lodge G. U. 0. of O. F., which meets in Chattanooga the 8th ray of August. five years.

Alsup, who are now residing in Chicago, but who formerly lived in Nashville, have reached here, announcing the approaching marriage of their daughter, Sadie Mai, to Mr. Everett Radford. The wedding is to take place Tuesday evening, August 8th, 1911, at 8 o'clock p. m., at the residence of the bride's parents, 3702 State street. DOBSON-WALKER. One of the most beautiful weddings of the season was that of Mr. Wesley Dobson and Miss Mattie D. Walker, which took place Saturday evening at the home of the bride's mother, Mrs. Annie Walker, on the Stone River plike. The house was beautifully decorated with cut flowers and ferns. At 8 o'clock Mrs. J. H. Hale began to play the wedding march, the groom entering through the hall into the reception room, meeting the bride before an altar of ferns and palms. Miss Eugenia Walker, the bride's sister, was the maid of honor and Mr. Isaac Battle, best man. The bride wore an all-over embroidered blue net over blue silk and carried a bouquet of bridal flowers. Her veil was caught with orange blossoms; her only ornament was a brooch of pearls, a gift of the groom. The maid of honor also wore blue net over blue silk. After the ceremony the guests were served an ice-course. A number of presents were received. while delivering his address and at the close the body arose en masse and gave him a Chautauqua salute. The Credential Committee was appointed and made its report, which was received and adopted. It was well in the afternoon before the meeting adjourned for dinner. NASHVILLE GLOBE, FRIDAY, AUGUST 4, 1911. MASONS MEET. The harmonious spirit that pervades the assembly indicates that there will be but few, if any, changes in the roster at this meeting. It seems to be the concensus of opinion among the members of the order to let well enough alone and the slogan seems to be that Masonry shall be pushed vigorously that she may hold her place in the fraternal ranks in this state. The opening session of the Grand Chapter O. E. S., Grand Patron J. H. Adams, of Nashville, presiding, was held Tuesday morning. The session was largely attended and great interest was manifested in the work by the delegates present. Grand Patron Adams delivered her annual address, which was received with applause. The Grand Chapter Royal Arch Masons, Grand High Priest E. R. Bynum, presiding, will be held Friday morning, at which time a royal reception awaits the members of the craft connected with this department of the work. The trip to Lookout Mountain on Wednesday evening eclipsed all features of the entertainment that has been so well arranged by the general committee. A large number of the delegates took advantage of this opportunity to visit this historic spot and to say they enjoyed themselves would be putting it mildly. Grand Master Henry is very much in evidence at every turn. He is seeing to it that the delegates receive every attention at his home city. This spirit is not a surprise to the members of the Order, for after years of contact with the man they have learned to know him as a sympathetic brother and one who will go the full length for the comfort and protection of his brothers. The sessions will come to a close Friday night and on Saturday morning the forty-first session of the Mason's Grand Lodge of Tennessee will have passed into history.

New York, August 2.—Another round-up of "white hopes" is planned with a view to picking a challenger for Johnson. The National Sporting Club of America here issued an invitation to heavyweights yesterday to attend a tournament on August 10. The winner will be matched with Al Palzer, who won the first "white hope" elimination tourney here recently. [Name] DR. SAMUEL D. COTTERELL. Dr. Samuel D. Cotterell, one of Nashville's physicians, who receives appointment from Governor Ben Hooper to represent the State of Tennessee at the National Negro Educational Congress, to be held at Colorado August 12th, 13th, 14th and 15th. Dr. Cotterell has made good since his coming to Nashville, both as a preacher and in his medical career. We think the appointment a well merited one. [Picture of a man in a suit with a bow tie]. A. THOS. HILL Pulaski, Tenn. Prof. A. Thos. Hill is Secretary of Endowment Bureau of the Knights of Pythias of Tennessee. His report made to the recent Grand Lodge at Chattanooga was a most excellent one. Showing that $36,045.78 had been received and $15,989.91 disbursed during the past year. Total amount on hand July 1, 1911 was $32,496.37. The whole Jurisdiction has every reason to be proud of the manner in which Prof. Hill handled the affairs of his office. His books are always open for the inspection of those who may desire a peep into the financial affairs of the Endowment Board. His method of bookkeeping can not be improved upon, his pensmanship is all that can be desired as to neatness and legibility. Prof. Hill is a shrewd man and a ripe scholar. He has been principal of the Pulaski public school for twenty-two years, giving eminent satisfaction to all concerned. [Image of a man in a suit, seated and looking slightly to the side.] MR. CALVIN L. McKISSACK. The many friends of Mr. Calvin L. McKissack will be very glad to learn of the honor that has recently come to him, in that he has been appointed by Governor Ben Hooper to represent the State of Tennessee at the coming session of the National Negro Educational Congress to be held at Denver, Col.. August 12, 13, 14 and 15, at which time some of the greatest Negro educators of the country will be brought together. Mr. McKissack, who is the youngest son of Mr. and Mrs. Gabriel McKissack, of Pulaski, Tenn., is still in his 21st year and he is probably the youngest man ever accorded such honor. It came to him totally ungo-licited and as a surprise. Although Mr. McKissack is yet a young man he is well prepared to fill the position. MRS. WM. H. FRANKLIN ENTER... TAINS MRS.
