NASHVILLE GLOBE. NASHVILLE OFFERS OPPORTUNITY Vol. VII. B. M. C. BREAKS UP IN A ROW Grand Master E. H. Morris Renominated. B. J. Davis of Atlanta Thrown Down —Meeting Ran Smoothly Five Days — Election of Officers Signal for War — Georgia Delegates Not Allowed to Vote — Grand Master Would not Hear Roll. Delegates returning from the B. M. C. meeting of the Odd Fellows held in Atlanta, Ga., last week tell distressing stories of the closing scene of that great organization. After having been invited to the city of Atlanta by the Mayor and other officials, and having been assured that the pleasure of the city was theirs, and after a profitable week's deliberations, the final chapter in the meeting was one of the most disgraceful societies ever witnessed in a deliberative body. It seems that all the racket was due to a difference of opinion as to who should be grand officers for the next two years. Georgia was making a heroic fight for her choice son, Mr. B. J. Davis. Other states were opposed to Davis and set about to organize their forces to bring about his defeat. It was thought in the outset that Hon. Morris, of Chicago, the present Grand Master, would not stand for reelection. In fact, at the Baltimore meeting it was understood that an agreement had been reached between the Davis compact and Mr. Morris that in the Atlanta meeting he would be succeeded by Mr. Ben Davis. The tactics employed at the Baltimore meeting are well known to the people throughout the country. It came near precipitating a split in the Order; but it seemed that the old wounds had healed and the disgruntals went to the Atlanta meeting to unhorse the Davis-Slaughter Morris combination. A break occurred between Mr. Morris and Mr. Davis early in the year, when the Grand Master took a trip abroad and when it was charged by some of the grand officers that he neglected to give due notice to the Deputy Grand Master and other officers of his departure. Hence, it was taken that Mr. Morris had broken the compact and the fight grew on from that time. It seems that ex-Grand Master Houston was whipped back in line with the Davis faction and Morris was eliminated. The fight grew more intense as the end drew near. Georgia was confident of victory. So confident was she that boasts were made that Davis would win on the first ballot. It was said that during the meeting the friends of Davis could not convince him that there was an undercurrent working to his disadvantage. They say Davis kept up a continuous fight throughout the session, and that deal of it he was taken up by him in pushing through petty schemes that he hoped to inaugurate under his administration. The first thing that caused dissatisfaction among the delegates was a new credential that Davis tried to force upon the members at a cost of twenty-five cents, when the credentials of the local lodges have always admitted members to the B. M. C. the next thing that was distasteful was a charge of twenty-five cents for programs. It was held by the delegates that this was wrong, as it had not been the custom heretofore. They said a contingent fund was provided for all purposes and that they did not feel that they had been treated fairly in being forced to pay for every little thing offered them. The fight was kept up continuously until the election, when it developed that the Davis forces were not so great as was thought; but that other states had perfected combinations that were stronger than the Georgia combination. It was then that the packet started. Hon. Henry Lincoln Johnson. Recorder of Deeds of the United States, determined that Grand Master Morris should not preside at the meeting. He took charge of the gavel, it is said, and held it by force. Riot was almost precipitated. Sticks were drawn, knives were drawn, and all that saved a general fight was the calling in of the policemen. Henry Lincoln Johnson was presiding and was refusing to give up the gavel to the Grand Master. When the policeman came in. Mr. Morris stated to him that he was Grand Master, but could not get a chance to preside, and that the man presiding was a deputy whose duty it was to preside in his absence; that he was very much present and would like the privilege of presiding over his meeting. The policeman quietly but positively informed Mr. Johnson that inasmuch as Morris was grand master, he would have to recognize him, as it was not the desire of the citizens of Atlanta that the splendid meeting be broken up in a row. Upon taking the gavel it is said that the grand master adjourned the meeting; some say to meet in sixty days; others say that a second meeting will not be held. The straight of matters could not be learned, but it REGOMMENDS BLACK BOTTOM Prof. Smith Thinks That Place For High School. So States to Pupils — Many Sad Hearts at the Thought—Location Most Objectionable One — Principal Expresses His Views—Was not Called by the Board—Matter Came Up Incidentally. The question of a High School for Negroes is becoming a common topic in this city. It was conceded by all that just as soon as the white High School was completed the authorities would become dissatisfied with the inadequate facilities of the present High School for Negroes. And it develops that the opinion entertained was not far fetched. Recently, however, it was said that a statement was made by Prof. F. G. Smith, Principal of the High School, that aroused the indignation of the Negroes of Nashville, and one that is not believed will be accepted by the school officials. It is said that Prof. Smith a few days ago told the pupils of the High School that the Board of Education had sent for him and asked him to point out a suitable location for a new High School. It is further stated that he told the pupils in the school that he told the Board that the present location was the very best that could be found in Nashville, and that the new high school would be erected on the present site. The young people went to their several homes, many of them with tears in their eyes, and all of them with heavy hearts. The present high school for Negroes is located in Black Bottom, a section of the city that has been condemned and that is referred to by every daily paper in Nashville as the most corrupt and most filthy community that can be found in any city. Black Bottom is known far and near as one of the worst dives in the country. And had it not been that too much politics was injected into the election here a few years ago that whole section of the city would have by this time been wiped out. People going through Black Bottom on the cars are always shocked at the vulgarity of the inhabitants. Several committees have visited there and each one has reported of the filth and vice that was found. One young girl, after hearing the statement by the Principal of her school, went home and told her sisters of the same and then told them of the conditions that obtained in the community, how that most every day when they are leaving school for their homes they walk out in full view of men and women as vulgar as it is possible for a human being to be, and who have no regard whatever for the modesty of girls of tender years. This is the community in which it is said the Principal of the high school recommends that a new high school be erected. Of all the communities in the city, it is said that he selected this bottom, a section where it is almost impossible to maintain sanitary regulations. When the water rises it seeps all through this bottom. Business houses there are forced to move their wares, and the people who live in the dives are hustled out like rats. When they leave their quarters the spectacle is sickening, and the drunkards, gamblers, murderers and thieves who are driven out of their homes by the back water and forced into other communities make it uncomfortable for other people; and, worst of all, back waters have been known to come up in the cellar of the school where the janitor resides, causing him to have to look for other quarters until they receded and it is said that it is this community the Principal recommends the Board of Education to build a high school, a new high school, in which hundreds of thousands of dollars will be invested. The people are very much wrought up over what is said to have been a statement by the Principal. Prof. Smith was asked if he had been correctly quoted as to the above and he said he had not. He said the Board of Education did not send for him; instead he went to the superintendent's office to ask him of certain studies that have been introduced in the new High School could not also be added to the Pearl Higgs School course, and while there, he, Prof. Smith, asked the superintendent, if he thought the new high school for Negroes could be provided for this year, and it was then he says he was asked to suggest a location and he suggested the present site. He said the whole mater was brought about by a question asked by himself as he thought of a probability of the school being moved to some corner, but the matter was in no wise official. Is a fact that what was expected to be a grand display of Odd Fellows and a demonstration of the wealth and intelligence of the Negroes of this country came near breaking up in a disgraceful racket. NASHVILLE, TENN., FRIDAY SEPTEMBER 20, 1912. GOLORED STATE FAIR NEXT WEEK All Things In Readiness For The Opening. Many Exhibits Coming from Far and Near—Tennessee Negroes Turning to the Soil—Satisfied Now of Protection from White Caps—Setting About to Improve their Farms—Better and Bigger Crops. The Colored State Fair will open next Tuesday and the present indications are that it will be the greatest exhibit ever held in this state by Negroes. elt is apparent that the spirit of the times is being taken to by Tennessee colored people. There is a great awakening among them as to the importance of the careful study of the soil. They are realizing that the wealth of the nation after all is in the farm, and the tendency to get away from the city and back to the soil is growing rapidly in Tennessee as time goes by. Only recently it was learned that one of the leading Negro lawyers in this state who resides in one of the large cities has purchased a large farm and was planning to go into the poultry raising business on an extensive scale. This war surprising to many. But it only shows the spirit that is taking hold of Tennessee Negroes. This is largely due to the fact that the sentiment of the white people in the rural districts has undergone a wonderful change in the last few years. It used to be that as soon as a community of Negroes attempted to improve their farms, to raise better crops and have better homes, a gang of worthless whites was organized as "White caps," and began to terrorize them. Evidences of that spirit crop out here and there occasionally; but the leading white people of the several communities rise en masse and stamp it out. It is this interest on the part of the white people that has convoked the Negroes of this state that they can engage in agricultural pursuits anywhere in safety, and since they know that they can do that they are now turning their attention to better things, and are setting about to improve conditions and to learn, as far as possible, the very best methods to adopt in getting out of the soil a greater yield per acre. They are also taking an interest in stockraising, poultry raising and in fact every feature of farm life is attracting the attention of the Negroes and they are now gathering for the state fair to exchange views and compare results. Greenwood Park will be a beehive of industry. The management has made ample preparations to entertain all who come. BISHOP TYREE AND DAUGHTER BANQUETED IN THE EAST On Thursday evening September 12th, Bishop Evans Tyre, D. D.

Good Beginning Had Bad Ending—Near Riot at Times—Police Had to be Called—Davis Tactics Not Pleasing—Objection to Charges for Credentials and Programs — Grand Master Morris Bolts. Atlanta, Ga., Sept. 14. (Special)—The 16th Biennial Session of the G. U. O. O. F. America came to a close Saturday morning at 4:30 a. m. amid confusion and contention for the supremacy for the Order. Never before in the history of the Order was there so much bickering dissatisfaction and lack of harmony during an election. When the name of Grand Master E. H. Morris was presented, the delegates from various states marched up and down the hall frantically yelling and carrying banners. It was done to stampede the convention, but this failed. It was thought by the majority of delegates that Col. Morris would not run, and that the name of Mr. B. J. Davis would be the only one presented for Grand Master of the Order. Notwithstanding the fact that Grand Master E. H. Morris stated in his Biennial Address "There would never be a time when disunion would come to the lodges and that the letters' of fire are blazing over the gates' leading to the Temple of Friendship, Love and Truth," yet the scenes on that morning made his address seem just the reverse, for when he refused to have the roll of Georgia's delegates called, disunion, turmoil and pandemonium reigned supreme After the session had gone on smoothly for five days the election of officers was the cause of the convention adjourning "sine die." It came about this way: Morris was nominated and so was Davis. Deputy Grand Master H. L. Johnson took the gavel. States were called. And when it came to Georgia's, Morris took the gavel, and refused to let Georgia cast her vote by the chairman of the Georgia delegation or even to hear the name of each delegate called from the Georgia roll. From every observation it was seen that Mr. Davis had the vast majority of votes for his own state and several Southern states were pledged to him and votes were scattered elsewhere, but Grand Master Morris refused to hear the roll called, and finally decided that the honor was big enough for him for the next two years and adjourned the convention "sine die." The delegates sat in the hail from ten o'clock in the night until 4:30 the next morning. They amused themselves by singing, marching and reciting. Some went out for lunch, and others had lunch sent to them. Every now and then some delegate would yell vociferously "roll call." Again and again conferences were held to harmonize things, but the "old warrior stood pat." With the adjournment, the same men will hold office until the meeting the next two years, the place having not been selected. The most important matter transacted was the retention of the Supreme Court headquarters to remain at Philadelphia and a Bureau of Endowment for the states in which there are none. Grand Secretary reported 10,750 financial branches; 12,627 dispensions granted by the S. C. M. during the last 2 years; numerical strength 492,905; total assets $194,008.15. J. C. Johnson, Grand Treasurer of the Order, read his report, which contained an itemized account of all receipts during the years 1911 and 1912, July 15th. L. N. Porter, Chairman Grand Auditing Committee, read his report. Grand Master E. H. Morris delivered a Biennial address, as well as Hon. Harry S. Cummings, Attorney General for the Order. There was the grand parade with 20,000 people in line. This was followed by a drill at Ponce de Leon Park, where the Patriarchie of Pittsburg won first prize, Indiana second honors and Chicago third. The same night a grand ball was given at the Auditorium which was attended by 3,000 people. The local committee, headed by Mr. B. J. Davis, was responsible for the preparations made to entertain the delegates and visitors. All were greatly pleased with the hospitality and courtesy extended them, and claim that the Biennial session here was the grandest, and most prosperous and successful con-Order. The Odd Fellows in the past two years, from statistics show a greater progress than any period of its history. It has spent more money for widow and orphans, paid out more money for the burial of its members and erected more halls and lodge (Continued on Page 5.) STATE NOR= MAL OPENING Prof. Brister Principal Speaker. Tells of Education of Years Aga and of Today—Present Times Demand Thorough Training — Faculty Members Presented — Citizens Make Short Talks—Meharry, Walden and Roger Williams. The first term of the State Normal opened very auspiciously Monday, with an enrollment of about three hundred students. They came from every part of the state, and the new school was a regular beehive by Monday afternoon. President Hale and the members of the faculty were kept busy all day getting things in shape for the year's work. Tuesday a platform meeting was held, when the citizens of this city and many visitors from other parts of the state assembled to take part in the inaugural exercises. The principal speaker of the day was Prof. J. W. Brister, State Superintendent of Public Instruction, who delivered a very able address on "The New Education." The Superintendent said that the idea of education of a former period was simply the cultivation of the intellect and ignoring the training of the hand and the heart, but that this is all changed now, and that true education incorporated the training and preparation of the whole personality—head, heart and hand—for a life of usefulness. He said education does not mean preparation for a life of ease, or a "good time," as so many falsely imagine, but it means more work, harder work, and more efficient work. And he warned the young people who had matriculated in the school that if they had any other idea, they were mistaken, and should divest themselves of such a notion. The various members of the faculty were presented by President W. J. Hale and each made brief remarks. Among the citizens who delivered short addresses were Hon. J. C. Napier, Register of the United States Treasury; Councilman S. P. Harris, Prof. F. G. Smith, principal of the Pearl High School; Rev. Preston Taylor, Hon. A. N. Johnson, and many others. NASHVILLE LADY WINS FIRST BUTTER PRIZE AT STATE FAIR Mrs. Carr, the estimate wife of Mr. B. J. Carr, won the first butter prize at the State Fair this week.

GREAT BASEBALL GAME MON DAY Monday at Athletic Park, the Greenwood Glants and the N. & C. Stars will play a championship game of baseball.

A purse of $200 has been made up by the admirers of the two teams and the interest is at a high pitch. It is anticipated that the largest crowd that has witnessed a coored ball game in many years in this city will be on hand Monday. NATIONAL CONVENTION DELE GATES Many of the delegates from the National Baptist Convention stopped in the city this week on their return home. Among them were Dr. and Mrs. Thomas and Mrs. Carter, of Chicago; Dr. Walker, Mrs. Taylor, Mr. and Mrs. Pierce, Mr. Jones, Hon. Hayes, of Cincinnati; Mr. Triplet, also of Cincinnati, stopped over from the B. M. C. in Atlanta, Ga. THE Y. W. G. A. The Y. W. C. A. was especially favored last Sunday afternoon to have at their meeting Mrs. W. F. Francis, of St. Paul, Minn., who addressed them in a pleasing manner. All felt it was good to be there. The Y. W. C. A. is growing in interest and bids fair to be an important factor in the uplift of humanity in this city. Y. M. C. A. MEETING NEXT SUNDAY SIMILAR TO THAT OF LAST. Last Sunday the live workers and lovers of the Association met in a brief prayer and song service, and just before the close some practical suggestions from a number of the men present, touching the fundamentals of the work were clearly and forcefully set forth. All present enjoyed the meeting. Sunday afternoon, September 22, at 4 o'clock there will be a similar meeting held in the Majestic, to which all men are respectfully invited to be present. Let us meet promptly at 4 o'clock. TENNESSEE'S LEADING NEGRO JOURNAL No.39 PRESIDENT OF FISK RESIGNS Caused By Bad Health And Injuries. Has Not Been Well Since Railroad Accident—Dr. Geo. A. Gates a Physical Wreck—Now at His Home in Vermount—Board Accepts Resignation Reluctantly — Committee in Charge On Friday, September 13th, in the little town of Glover, Vermont, Dr. Geo. A. Gates, who has been at the head of Fisk University since October, 1909, called his wife to his side and after a serious consultation decided that the time had come for him to tender his resignation to the Board of Trusees of Fisk University as the President of that institution. This decision was reached after the recovery from a relapse suffered by Dr. Gates a short while ago. The resignation was accepted by the Board, reluctantly, because they knew that the start of the man was wrapped up in Fisk University, but they also knew that Dr. Gates has been physically unable to handle the affairs of a large school since last spring. For, it will be remembered that while en route from Nashville to New York he was a passenger on a train which was wrecked in Pennsylvania, and was among the injured. He made every effort to conceal the seriousness of his injuries, but his friends could see that he was not himself. Upon his return from that trip he was advised to take a vacation in the mountains of North and South Carolina. He was away all spring but returned in time for commencement. He looked much improved after having spent a few weeks in the mountains, but it was evident that his vitality was still weak. After the close of school Dr. Gates with his wife went to their home in Vermont, where they have spent the summer. It was hoped by his friends that he would rally sufficiently during the vacation to resume his duties at the opening of school. But as time rolled on it was evident that nature was failing to respond, and while the members of his board regretted very much to give him up, it is said that they were not surprised when they were resignation with the statement that his health had failed him. The affairs of Fisk University will be handled by a committee of three composed of Dean H. H. Wright, Prof. M. V. Metcalf and Prof. C. W. Morrow. It was learned that the outlook for the opening, which will take place on the 23rd, is very promising. Dean Wright representative that they were forced several days ago to stop receiving girl students and that only a few vacancies are left in the boys' dormitory. He said the outlook for the year is very bright. The class of students is of an exceptionally good character, and every indication points to one of the best years in the history of Fisk University. When asked as to who would probably succeed Dr. Gates, Prof Wright said he had not the least idea, as the Board has had not time to take any steps in that direction; but that he felt certaia that a diligent search would be made in the near future and that the Board would exhaust every energy to give Fisk University a man who will be a worthy representative of those who have preceded him. Dr. Gates is the third president of Fisk University. He came to Nashville with many years of experience in school work. He was for thirteen years President of Grinnell College in Iowa and was for seven years at the head of Pomona College in California. Just before coming to Fisk he traveled extensively, and when it was learned in this city that he had been selected to succeed Dr. Merrill it was predicted that Fisk University would be pushed to the front and maintain the enviable position she has held for many years among the educational institutions in the South for Negroes. The vacancy caused by the resignation of Dr. Gates will doubtless bring up again the question of a Negro for President of Fisk. This question is becoming more pertinent every year as was evidenced when a new president was to be selected for Howard University in Washington, D. C. No names have been advanced as far as could be learned, but it is a known fact that the Negroes of this country are strongly in favor of the heads of some of these institutions being members of the race. MISS GERTRUDE BARBOUR VISITING HOME Miss Gertrude Barbour, of Chicago, Ill., formerly of this city, is visiting the Misses Walker, of Jo Johnston avenue.

Nashville receives with many regrets the intelligence that Dr. Geo. W. Gates will not be able to resume his work as President of Fisk University. Dr. Gates is a ripe scholar and a man of extraordinary attainments along educational lines. It was considered very fortunate that Fisk University could command such a ripe scholar and one who had so much experience in school work. He was a man of great force and determination. He had his peculiarities, it is true, but above all of that he was eminently sincere. There were some who differed with him on public questions and many as to his methods of running Fisk University, but no one has been known to doubt his honest intentions and his great desire to make Fisk University the greatest institution in the south for the higher education of Negroes. His many friends hope that he will finally regain his health; that he may give to the world the benefit of his thorough training and many years of experience. This is an age of political independence. The country has never seen the day when so many men think and act upon their own decisions. There was a time when democrats were democrats for the name, and whigs were whigs for the same reason; republicans were republicans because some one else was. And the time is not far distant when all Negroes were republicans because Lincoln was. But the day has passed when men identify themselves with this or that party because of its name; but it is the principle involved now that the voters of this nation are considering. The name does not mean or amount to anything. They care not how long such and such a party has been in existence, or what it used to stand for. The question now is, what does it stand for to-day? Negroes used to be republicans because Lincoln was a republican and because he was president when the shackles of slavery were broken. But that day is past, and the Negro as well as other men, is confronted with the great problems of this day. As a mass they are concerned particularly as to the cost of living. They are beginning to study high tariff and low tariff. It does not make much difference to the masses whether we have initiative, referendum or recall; but it is a matter of whether or not it is right and just for the large corporations and controllers of big business to compel the laborers of this country to pay double price for the stuff they make here as is charged for the same material in foreign countries. Another thing that is engaging the attention of the thinking men is why this nation is unwilling to admit into this country without duty such commodities as are not manufactured in this country sufficiently to supply the demands. Negro voters, as a rule, have not heretofore studied these questions. They have gone along blindly following the party of Lincoln and forgetting the fact that Lincoln and most of his ancestors are dead, and that the inquisitive Pullman car custom was inaugurated by one of the sons of Abraham Lincoln. We refer to the custom of some states of telling the Negroes that all of the berths are taken. It will be remembered that the Hon. J. B. Frazier, of Tennessee, made a trip all the way to Illinois to explain to Mr. Lincoln just how he could keep the Negroes out of the sleepers, and Mr. Lincoln jumped at the idea as a cat would at a mouse; and from that day on it has been a hard thing for a Negro to get accommodations in a sleeping car. It makes no difference who that Negro is or what distance he has to travel, he is forced to take the fare in the jom crow car; sleep if he can, but pay full fare he must. That is the condition that one of the sons of Lincoln has put upon the Negroes of the south. So, to serve a party because it was Lincoln's party is the most foolish thing the people could do. What this age is demanding is that men vote their own convictions, and that those convictions be based upon a sober consideration of what is really best for all the people. In this campaign many questions will be discussed. The army of spellbinders are in training now, and within a few days the country will be flooded with them. We will have the situation from a stand pat republican viewpoint; we will have it from a democratic standpoint; we will have it from a national progressive standpoint; we will have it from a prohibitionist standpoint, and finally we will have it from a socialist stand point. 4 Published every Friday in the year at 447 Fourth Avenue, Nashville, Tennessee, by the NASHVILLE GLOBE PUBLISHING COMPANY.

Monohan Killing. The killing of Clarence Peaks by P. H. Monohan should bring forcibly to the minds of the thinking Negroes of this city the necessity of efforts to establish and maintain stores. Monohan has lived on the hard earnings of Negroes all of his life. When a boy he used to play with the Negro boys and he used to engage in rock fights with them. Some of those who were in the crowd he attempted to drive from the street doubtless have known him all of their lives, but the bare-footed boy they used to play with is now a man, and with the years of maturity has come a change in sentiment and desires. Pat Monohan the man no more longs for the hours to come when he can hustle around the corner to meet his pals, some black and some white, to engage in a game of marbles or spinning tops. As he has grown to manhood he has observed that environment has brought about a great chasm between him and his black playmates; he has observed that his opportunities are more numerous than those of the Negro boys who used to beat him at games; and coming into a knowledge of these things the desire to pull away from the old associates has grown and grown until it has taken possession of Pat Monohan to the extent that the associations of youthhood are not longer craved. The final result: Clarence Peaks is dead and P. H. Monohan is out on a measly bond. The plea is set up that a crowd of Negroes were disturbing his sick mother—O sympathy! how many crimes are committed under thy cloak Clarence Peaks is dead; Pat Monohan is out on bond; Negroes do not believe he will suffer much for having committed this crime. They have about dismissed the incident as closed This is not the first time a Negro has been killed under like conditions, but it was the hundredth time the pitcher had been to the well when it was broken. So it is time the Negroes of Nashville were looking for a remedy for this evil. In the community where the killing took place most all of the people are Negroes. There ought to be a large first-class grocery store opened up in that community by some Negro or Negroes, two or three, not more, and the Negroes ought forever to remain away from the Monohan place. The tragedy should not be forgotten. It should be told from generation to generation. It is useless to suppose that some condition will be brought to bear that will make the white man atone for his sins. He is a born expansionist, and feels that he has performed a holy act when he does something that will be advantageous to him in some way. The white man puts great stress on notoriously, and killing a Negro does in some way make one white man admire another. The best way to prevent a repetition of such tragies is to drive the cheap white merchant out of Negro communities by opening business houses to be owned and operated by Negroes. The Negroes in the vicinity of the Monohan store owe it to themselves and unborn generations to stay away from the place. The peace and prosperity of the community demand it as well. Conkling Simmons. Col. Roscoe Conkling Simmons, the gifted editor and orator, is moving towards the South at a commendable rate. He has got as far as Chicago, and that is some distance from New York. The Illinois Chronicle is to be congratulated that Col. Simmons has taken hold as its editor. Chicago is a great city for colored people, and it ought to have a great journal. Under the touch of Roscoe Conkling Simmons, the great advocate of race uplift, the Chronicle should make great President Gates. Political Independence. The man who is to be a real benefit to his community and to his nation must take all of these views and sift them down for himself and between all decide on the lesser evil. All pol- citizens strain a point when working to an end. They all tell some truth and an abundance of untruth. But the voter must be able to pick out the truth, or in other words, separate the good from the bad, and to cast his vote for those men whom he believe to be the better prepared and mostly inclined to the fair thing for the people. To do this requires thought. It is necessary that the voter read the different views expressed; that he be posted on the different topics of the day, and that he have the courage to support his own convictions. If he cannot do this he has no right to vote. There are many things to be considered, but the principal thing and the most vital thing that every Negro in Tennessee should consider is what is the best thing for the people of Tennessee? What political party has put forward the most plausible platform and the kind of men they have nominated to run on that platform. It is possible sometimes for the platform and the kind of men they have men running on it to be weaklings; and then it is possible for the men to be all right but to be on a platform that is faulty and misleading. It is necessary that the different platforms that have been put forward in Tennessee be studied together and then the men be put side by side and their courage and ability compared. And further that the constituents of the leaders be compared. We have had four years of confusion in Tennessee; all brought about by a split in one party. For the last two years we have been living under a fusionist administration. What the voter must decide is: Can Tennessee thrive best under a fusionist administration or a clear-cut administration of some party? This is political independence, and this is the opinion that is fast taking hold of the affairs of this state and this nation. Burying the Dead. A short while ago a leading minister of this city was preaching the annual sermon of several local lodges. Among other things he touched upon the methods employed by Negroes when they bury their dead. He cited cases where to his personal knowledge families have spent from two to three hundred dollars on a funeral when that same family was living in a rented house and living from hand to mouth. He cited one instance where the mother spent over four hundred dollars on her daughter's funeral and had to go to the washtub the next morning to make money to sustain herself. Money spent on the funeral was accumulated from insurance policies and society endowments, and all of it was put into the ground with a dear sweet girl who had departed this life. The story presented a sad spectacle and one that was void of reason; but Negro people are guilty in too many instances of just that very thing. The accumulating of a life insurance policy does not imply that all that is to be derived therefrom is to be spent on preparing for the funeral. But it is an investment made by a member of the family for the benefit of all the members of that family. If it is a father, he makes the investment for the wife and children; and if it is a brother or sister it is an investment for the other members of the family during their lifetime. It is tomfoolery for people to feel that they owe so much to the dead. As was cited by the divine quoted above, it is incumbent upon the survivors to give their departed a decent burial. But if those who have closed their eyes in endless sleep could only speak to those who are left to battle on in this world, they would say to them, "Bury my body as economically as you can and keep the balance that has been derived from an investment upon my life to help you live in comfort on this earth." Another thing that was mentioned by this same divine was the method of opening caskets in churches. It is an indisputable fact that people are given over too much to this practice. Nothing is to be gained by looking at a dead person. They cannot speak to you and you cannot speak to them. They are dead, and being dead is an evidence that some irregularity has taken place in that body. In most cases it was some kind of disease that ended the life. If the disease was so violent a sto take the life of the individual whose body has been brought to the church for the last ceremony to be performed, if the disease killed that person, it is prima facie evidence that it will kill others; and it does not sound reasonable to suppose that a dead body can be rid of the germs that destroyed the life. The practice of opening coffins in churches and having the people parade around and look at the dead should be stopped. The Globe fully agrees with the minister who advances the idea that people should announce to their friends when a member of their family dies that they may visit the house and look at the departed if they so desire, but when the body is carried FRUGAL BON AIR AND RAVENSCROFT COALS Are the Best and Cheapest We are not superstitious, but we Overton C.

EDITORIAL CLIPPINGS. ARKANSAS TAKES STAND AGAINST DISFRANCHIS- ING The partial returns from Monday's election show that Amendment No. 11, better known as the "Grandfather Clause," has been defeated. This is a signal victory for the Negroes, not only the State of Arkansas, but for the Negroes throughout the country. The battle was a hard-fought battle, but the Negroes have won. The "Grandfather" clause was advocated by such men as Senator Jeff Davis, Governor George W. Donaghey and many Prohibitionist leaders throughout the State. The liquor men assisted the Negroes in the defeat of the amendment, and the Negroes in turn assisted the liquor men in the defeat of statewide prohibition. Both amendments have been defeated, and today Arkansas stands out as a State that believes in a square deal for the Negro. This is the second State in the country that has turned down such an amendment, the first being Maryland, two years ago, when it took the Catholic vote combined with the Negro vote and the assistance of the President of the United States and Maryland's United States senator. The Negroes of Arkansas deserve much credit for the great fight they have made with the leadership of such leaders as J. E. Bush, S. A. Jones, Dr. E. C. Morris, Prof. Jos. A. Booker, Dr. D. C. Gaines, and others. As never before the Negro turned out to the polls and turned his right to franchise. The largest Negro vote ever polled in the State of Arkansas was polled Monday, and many Negroes who were away from home came hundreds of miles to be at home on Monday, that they might cast their vote against this amendment. The Democratic convention refused to the amendment in their platform and many Democrats throughout the state came out against it. The Republican convention condemned the amendment, as did the Socialists, but the Prohibitionists refused as a body to take any stand pro or con; but the same individuals who were touring the State, advocating the adoption of the prohibition clause were also advocating the adoption of the "Grandfather" clause. This only tended to increase the Negro's interest and he at once went to work harder than ever, determined with the assistance of their man, white friends to defeat the clause and the following is the result by counties. This will only show a partial return from some counties, but is sufficient to insure certain defeat. Next week we will give the official Amendment No. 11. County For.

Five thousand pounds await the student who will prove a certain propitiation proposed by the French mathematician Fermat 250 years ago. This prize was offered about five years since, and is to remain open to all comers for a century. Professor G. A. Miller, who tells of it in a recent address on "Modern Mathematical Research," fears that such a large inducements may set all sorts of mediocre mathematicians to wasting their time. The propositio nto be proved is that the sum of no two powers except squares is itself a power of the same degree. Sums of squares ar often squares; for instance, the square of 3 is 9 and that of 4 is 16. Add 16 and 9 and you have 25, which is the square of 5. But this has never been found to be true for cubes or fourth powers, or any powers above 2, and Fermat asserted that no such cases would or could ever be found. He proved it, too—at least he said he had done so—but its prof is lost and no one has ever recovered it or discovered another, although partial profs have been found for definite powers—for instance, for those that are multiple of 3, 4, 5, and of certain prime numbers. Some of the world's greatest mathematicians have been working on this problem for centuries.

MAT WHITE VISITS CHICAGO—CALLS ON JACK JOHNSON Mr. Matt White, the veteran of fifty years' service with the L. & N. Railroad, has recently returned from a trip to Chicago. White in the western metropolis Mr. White was shown many courtesies by railroad officials and other prominent citizens of that city. The following letters will show the esteem in which Mr. White is held by the railroad people: Mr. R. H. Bransford, Contracting Agent, Nashville, Tenn. Dear Bob—Your letter to Mr. Griffin arrived by the Madison White route early Saturday morning. Mr. Griffin being on his vacation I undertook to pilot your distinguished friend in the right direction. I first had the gold badge he wore properly riveted so that none of the light-fingered gentry could remove same from his person unless they took him with it. I also introduced him to the Editorial Staff of the Chicago Record Herald and enclose you the interview of which I presume he will be very proud. Any time you have any more of your distinguished Southern friends visiting in this city kindly steer them up against us. With best regards, I am, Yours truly, CHAS. H. RYAN, JR., Traveling Freight Agent. Mr. R. H. BRANSFORD. Contracting Agent, Nashville, Tenn. Dear Sir—Your letter August 19th, File2, 19-Bat introducing Mat White. I regret I was out of the city while Mat was here. Had I been in the city, it would have been a pleasure to have shown him some attention because of his long service with the L. & N. Co. General Agent. Mr. Matt White, Boss of L. & N. Local Freight Office, Nashville, My Dear Friend Matt: I am today in receipt of a sheet of the Nashville Banner on which I find that noble old face and form of your self, below which is an article stating you have been put on the pension list with full pay. While I am glad to hear you are on this list, and being well cared for, I know it would require a strong log chain to hold you from the office. We have here in my possession a book we call George Washington, in which we paste pictures of all people of note, such as YOURSELF, Milton H. Smith and many others. This book will eventually be stored in the archives of the Louisville & Nashville Railroad, where it can be reviewed by the coming generations of L. & N. officials. So you see while in time that honorable old body of Matt White may be buried from sight, his memory will be kept green. Continue to keep the boys straight. Matt. I will also advise you to occasionally keep an eye on Robert H. Bransford; he needs watching. Truly your friend, W. H. FINLEY. The following is a clipping from the Chicago Sunday Record-Herald of August 25th: NEGRO GIVEN PENSION BY ROAD. Fifty Years in Employ of Louisville and Nashville to Get Full Salary. Mud Nashville, to get run safety. Madison White, a Negro, has been granted a life pension by the Louisville and Nashville Railroad, after having served that company for more than fifty years. White came to Chicago yesterday from Nashville, Tenn., where he has lived, the natives say, for almost a century. The old employee's half century of serviture has left few furrows in his cheeks. If it were not for his hair, which is all white, he would pass for a man half his age. His figure is erect and he is as animated as he was forty years ago. White's pension consists of his full salary. He does not know that it is a pension. He marvels at the reduction in the number of his labors, which now consist of unlocking the cashier's cage in Nashville every morning and locking it in the evening. During the fifty years he has held one position, that of porter, in the general offices of the railroad ephipitoeleneudu rh.Vylgdf C te at Nashville. Mr. White was entertained by Champion Jack Johnson in his private parrons on August 29th. He met the champion on the street and was introduced to him as a pension employee of the L. & N. Railroad, having served for fifty years. And as the champion looked upon a metal Mr. White wore, he grasped the veteran's hand and said: "Two champions have met—a champion of a railroad and a champion of the pugilistic world." He then slapped him upon the back and invited him into his cafe and then carried him into his private partment, where he was introduced to his wife who recently committed suicide. Mr. White says that Mrs. Johnson was the picture of health when he met her, and that he was very much surprised when he heard of her sad death. The surroundings in Champion Johnson's NASHVILLE GLOBE, FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 20, 1912. private apartments were explained by Mr. White to be all that the heart could wish; and he never fires of telling his friends of the cordial greetings the champion gave him. greetings the champion gave him. Mr. White is a prominent character in Nashville. He was a clave in the employ of the L. & N. Railroad before the war. When the warkobre, before the war. When the war broke out he enlisted with the Federauls and took part in the important battles around Nashville and Tennessee, and wears several scars now as the result of that bloody conflict. He stand erect and at the toot of a bugle becomes as spry as a young colt. The L. & N. Railroad gives him a trip annually to any part of the country he wishes to visit, and the cor- respondence quoted above is a fair evidence of the esteem in which he is held.

GOLDEN STAR SERMON The Golden Star Society 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6 held their twenty-first annual sermon September 15th at St. Johns A. M. E. Church. The members of the Order were out in great numbers.

Porter, pastor of the church, from the Star in the East, Dr. Porter gave a striking synopsis of the history of the stars, and said that of all stars was the one that attracted the wise men who followed its course to the gates of Jerusalem. He complimented the order upon having selected the name "Golden Star" for their order. He admonished them to follow the teachings of the One whose birth was told by that great star, and if they would only be governed by those teachings when the final reckoning day comes the "Golden Star" Society, which is now a local organization, will be numbered among the greatest organizations of the world.

DEPARTMENTS--College Preparatory, Academic, Normal, Industrial, Commercial Musical, Domestic Science. MRS. GAZELLA C. JONES, Preceptress. --- ASSISTANT G. O. P. CHIEF OF PUBLICITY, Mr. Phil. H. Brown, of Lexington, Ky., was recently appointed by Congressman Chas. F. Scott, of Kansas, Chief of Bureau Department of Publicity, National Republican Committee, as Chief of Publicity among the colored people during the campaign. His appointment was made over the applications of numerous newspaper men throughout the country, and it is considered to be no small victory for the popular, Knutckian. He has been a successful secretary of the Colored Campaign Committee of the Blue Grass State, and Readig Clerk of the State Republican Convention in Kentucky, and First Assistant Sargeant-at-Arms of the National Republican Convention. Mr. Brown has been in charge of the colored work at the headquarters, Auditorium Hotel, for several weeks. He was endorsed by Senator Bradley, Chas. D. Hilles and J. W. McCulough, National Committee member from Kentucky. Mr. Brown has a number of friends in Nashville who will be glad to learn of the recognition that he has been given by the National Republican party. They know there is no man in the country more deserving than Mr. Brown. He is an ardent supporter of the administration and has fought right along with the old party through thick and thin. If the republicans are successful in the national election, it is predicted by all fair-minded people that Mr. Brown will receive just recognition for the valuable services he is rendering. In his home state of Kentucky the Negroes had practically left the republican party. Lilly-whiteism was about to creep in and the sentiments of Lincoln and men of his type were fast fading away. Mr. Brown came on the scene just at an opportune time. He organized the Negroes of Kentucky, and through a systematic campaign was able to wield them back into the ranks of the republican party, and in the last state election it was said that if the white republicans had been as loyal to the party as the Negroes were the state would have been carried by Judge O'Rhea by an overwhelming majority. It was this work that attracted the attention of the Republicans of the National Council, and they kept close tab on Mr. Brown and recognized his rare ability as an organizer and worker among Negroes of the country.

Medical Observations. he widespread discussion which followed the discussion which followed the series of deaths in Berlin as a consequence of the drinking of liquors contaminated with wood alcohol has again attracted attention to its poisonous character. There has been considerable difference of opinion as to whether the poisonous effect of this substance is actually due to the alcohol it contains shrd due to the alcohol itself or to some impurities which are almost invariably present in all except the most refined products. There is a scarcity of facts regarding the actual behavior of wood alcohol in the human body, so that the underlying causes of its extremely poisonous character are by no means clearly understood. With respect to ordinary grain alcohol, the component of our alcohol beverages, the facts are better understood. Ordinary alcohol is when taken in moderate quantities rapidly burned up in the body. This fact has been demonstrated by numerous experiments. With wood alcohol, however, the case seems to be different, according to the recent investigations in the Institute for the Fermentation Industries, at Berlin. It has been shown that when wood alcohol is administered to animals it may not be eliminated completely even at the end of two days. The repeated ingestion of considerable doses of wood alcohol may lead to a dangerous accumulation thereof in the body. This factor has heretofore not been duly appreciated. These subtle dangers associated with the use of wood alcohol deserve widespread notice because of the increasing danger of its unsuspected entrance as an adulterant of the cheaper grades of distilled liquors and certain medicinal products. The insatiable demand for cheap liquors among certain of the degraded classes, says "The Journal of the merican Medical Association," and the difficulties with which the admixture of the inexpensive wood alcohol is detected provide a constant temptation to the unscrubulous dealer and a menace to the health of certain classes. However objectionable adulteration may be on benal principles, it becomes far worse when some subtle danger is harbored therein. THE VERSATILE PARROT Only Bird That Takes Food in Its Claws. It is not only in imitating human speech that the parrot excels most of the birds. The parrot is atone among birds in taking food in its claws. makes more or less use of that which. With these two characteristics it distinguishes humanity from the rest of the animal kingdom—the hand and the larynx. The monkey uses its hands and the elephant its trunk in feeding. Various animals have a habit of pawing their food. Rodents have serviceable toes. Still, the parrot is pre-eminent among birds in this regard. The secretary bird is said to attack reptiles with its claws, and some observers have said that owls make partial use of their remarkably flexible perching toe somewhat more than does a hen in scratching for food. However there is no other bird which, when presented with a piece of food, will accept it in its claws. Parrts, of course, do not talk, as we use the word, in thir wild state, and are not known to be imitative of neighboring sounds no ro possess the repertory of the mocking bird. It is, therefore, a question whether or not their use of the claws is largely imitative also. The shape of the parrot's beak would indicate that some assistance in eating has always been a part of the bird's characteristics. Like man, the parrot makes its appearance in the world naked and helpless. DAVIDSON COUNTY TEACHERS.
