SAYS HE DID NOT MAKE STATE MENT.
Thinks Globe Wants to "Start Something"—Board Did Not Send For Him—Went on Another Mission—Brought up High Himself—For Others.
Prof. F. G. Smith, principal of Pearl High School takes exception to the article that appeared in the Globe recently relative to a statement made by him in regard to the location of a new High School. Prof. Smith's position is clearly stated in the following article:
To the Editor of the Nashville Globe:
In the issue of your paper of September 20th there appeared an article which I think was very unkind and very unjust. I have been trying to discover a motive for the article and to see what good the Globe hoped to accomplish by such a sensational write-up. The article was headed:
"Recommends Black Bottom. Prof. Smith thinks that the place for High School." The following is a quotation from the article:
"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 it 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."
Now Mr. Editor, there is not one word of truth in that quotation, which can be proved to you by every child and teacher in the Pearl High School. I told you this in our conversation over the phone, and I cannot see why you publish the rumor except that you wanted to start something or desired to go out of your way to give the High School Principal an undeserved rap. I wish to say to you again that the Board did not send for me, they did not ask me to point out a suitable palce for the new High School, I did not state to the Board that the present location was the very best that could be found in Nashville, and I did not say that the new school would be erected on the present site. To begin with, Mr. Editor, I wish to state that it is my opinion that a new High School for Negroes is too far in the future for us to waste words about a site. Save your ammunition; you may need it in the next five or ten years. The matter has never yet been brought before the Board in its meetings and they have never even discussed it officially, so you see an argument over a site is premature. I am glad to see that the Globe is deeply interested in the High School. It wields our people to great advantage, if it adopted a constructive policy and its efforts were properly directed. On the other hand, it could do untold injury if it adopted a destructive policy, showed poor judgment and allowed its efforts to be misdirected. With your permission, that the public may know all the circumstances and be able to form an intelligent opinion as to whether I recommended Black Bottom or not, I will rehearse the details of my visit to the Superintendent. Three new text-books were introduced into the high White School course of study that I felt should have gone into the Pearl High School course—West's Ancient World, in the History Department, Hawkes-Luby and Touton's Algebra in the Mathematical Department and Milliken and Gele's Physics in the Science Department. I called at the Superintendent's office to confer with him and to advocate that these books be used by the Pearl children. I had already talked with the clerk about it on a previous occasion, had interviewed the Superintendent over the phone about it and was now making a personal visit to still further do all that I could in behalf of the children to get these books introduced. I succeeded in having the order held up for the children to buy the old books from Thursday until Monday, when
"A Struggling Race Facing a Crisis," will be the subject of Rev. W. S. Ellington's discourse, Sunday morning. An interesting program is being prepared for the B. Y. P. U. meeting Sunday night from 7 to 8.
GOV. PATTERSON OPENS GAMPAIGN
SPEAKS TO LARGE CROWD AT AUDITORIUM.
Goes Over Record As Governor—Tells Why He Pardoned—Better to Err On the Side of Mercy—Candidate for Senate—Stands For Humanity's Cause.
Ex-Governor M R. Patterson opened his campaign Thursday night, September 6, at the Ryman Auditorium as a candidate for the United States Senate. Over 3,000 people were present and the address of Mr. Patterson was well received. He said in part:
The truths that Jefferson taught have become the epigrams and ideals of liberty. They have never been finally realized, and may never be in all their strength and meaning; but as our religion becomes purer the nearer we approach its source, so our Democracy will become more secure and more completely fulfill its mission the nearer we bring it to the service of the people; for from the people all the power of Government comes, and in them all the power of Government should remain.
That immortal maxim of Jefferson, "Equal and exact justice to all, special privileges to none," is the substance of all civic virtue and the foundation stone upon which our Republic is built, and has been the battle-cry of the Democratic party since its birth.
The Hamiltonian or Republican idea of paternal government is founded upon the inequalities of men, where the strong control the weak, the wise play upon the ignorance of the masses, and the few are blessed at the expense of the many. I believe in progress and in a progressive party with progressive ideas and principles. Stagnation is decay, and we must go forward to meet new conditions as they arise. Change is the universal order of nature, and without it all created things would perish. But change itself does not always mean progress. An oak may be caught and blasted in the arms of the storm; a river may overflow its banks and swerve from its true course, spreading terror and destruction in the wild rush of its waters, and a social and political revolution may overthrow established order and obliterate all the landmarks of reason and experience. If the change improves and uplifts, the progressive idea has been met; but if mere change alone is involved and results have been for the worse rather than the better, then it is not progression, but regretionism.
Record as Governor.
I have twice served the people as Governor, and while my critics have never been in a frame of mind to give proper credit to the accomplishment of my administration, yet, in spite of the difficulties which beset me, I remained true to every promise made the people, and the advancement made in all departments of the State was marked and rapid. Nearly $700,000 of the State debt was retired, the public credit was fully sustained, and pensions to Confederate soldiers and their widows were increased. Our agricultural interests, upon which so much of our prosperity depends, received my attention; and laws were passed to protect the farmers from impure seed and their live stock from misbranded and adulterated feeding stuffs. An Experimental Farm was established in West Tennessee, at Jackson, now operated under the control of the State University, which has proved itself to be of the greatest value to a knowledge of scientific farming and soil conservation. A State Department of Mineralogy and Geology was created.
The inspection of the mines was in every way satisfactory—there being little loss of life from explosions; and a law was passed giving a right of action to injured miners from accidents growing out of the negligence of foremen.
In the interest of the health of the public, I advocated a Pure Food and Drug Law, fashioned after the National Pure Food and Drug act, which was passed by the Legislature. As Governor, I called the first Good Roads Convention ever created in the State, and started the movement to build the great highway from Bristol to Memphis.
Important penal reforms were also inaugurated, among these being the law which required all executions to take place at the penitentiary at Nashville—thus relieving communities of the horrors which always attend the infliction of the death penalty.
In order to separate young offenders from hardened criminals, and to save them from the dread evil of such association, I also advocated the establishment of the Juvenile Reformatory, and such a law has passed by the Legislature.
The State acquired under my administration valuable additions of real estate, the Capitol Annex, the Governor's mansion, a farm connected with the Central Asylum and an

COMMITTEE OF MANAGEMENT

Grand Master Makes Good Report—
Recommends $20,000 Investment
—After Free Discussion It Is
Accepted—Purchase State
Bonds—Growth of Order.
Special to the Globe
Little Rock, Ark. Sept. 24.—After considering the reports of the national officers, the National Committee of Management of the Mosaic Templars of America, in session yesterday at Bush hall, Ninth and Gaes streets, ordered the investment of $20,000 of the surplus of the Order in Arkansas securities. A Health Bureau also will be established to teach the members how to properly observe the laws of hygiene and ward off disease. The Mosaic Templars of America was founded in Little Rock thirty years ago by C. W. Keatts and J. E. Bush, two Little Rock men. C. W. Keatts died some years ago, but Hon. J. E. Bush, who at present is receiver of the United States Land Office, is serving the association as the national secretary.
Committee Hears Reports.
The committee assembled yesterday morning at 9 o'clock. The first report considered was that of the president, William Alexander, of Litle Rock. He called attention to the growth of the order from a lodge of 15 members in Little Rock, 30 years ago, to more than 1,100 subordinate branches, located in 26 states, the West Indies and Central America. The feature of the report, which was adopted by the committee, was the recommendation that a Health Bureau be established under the supervision of the physicians of the order. The duty of those in charge will be to reduce the death rate of the endowment department by teaching the members of the order to properly observe the laws of health, and thus ward off illness and premature death. President Alexander also recommended that $20,000 of the surplus of $51,000 belonging to the order be invested in Arkansas securities. This recommendation brought about considerable discussion from J. E. Bush, S. A. Jones, F. K. McPherson, G. W. Mills and D. G. Hill. The recommendation was finally approved by the committee and the Executive Committee, composed of William Alexander, E. E. Bush and S. A. Jones, was ordered to invest the $20,000 in first mortgages on Arkansas real estate.

FORMAL OPENING OF TURNER
NORMAL
Turner Normal at Shelbyville opened probably under more favorable conditions this week than at any other period : the history of the institution. As early as Thursday of last week the students began to arrive. By Sunday morning the dining-room was half full. Representatives came from all parts of the state. Two young ladies came from Chicago and one from Highland Park, Ill. Every train Monday brought new arrivals, and by Tuesday morning the buildings were fairly well filled. The formal, opening took place Tuesday, exercises beginning at ten o'clock. Many citizens from the city were present, some of whom took part in the exercises. The principal speaker was Mr. R. L. Mayfield, of Nashville. His address was in many re- (Continued on Page 4.)
POULTRY EXHIBIT OUTSHINES
ALL OTHERS.
Many Breeds of Poultry Shown—Visitors Highly Pleased With the Shows—One Pullet Valued $50.00—More to Be Interested Next Year.
The best displays of thoroughbred poultry made by Negroes exclusively was seen last week at Greenwood Park, being the first annual exhibition of the Tennessee Colored State Poultry Association held in connection with the Colored Fair Association. Thoroughbred poultry of many varieties was displayed. The thousands who visited the Fair are loud in their praises of this one department. The aisles were thronged from early morning to closing time each day. It was indeed a pleasant surprise to the many visitors. It served to show that the Negro is keeping up with the time. No one before this would have thought that such high-class poultry was owned by Negroes as was displayed, which represented many in the hundreds of dollars. It was further seen that there is a vast field yet to be covered, and the Negro is getting himself in line to receive his share of the business.
The market is now demanding poultry of a standard type, and the question of who raised it is never considered by the purchaser. Conferring with the many exhibitors, it was learned that they find no trouble whatever in disposing of their stock, whether it is of the show bird class or of the utility stock. Their complaint seemed to have been that they were unable to supply the demand, and only regretted that more Negroes are not in the same business.
Mr. L. Landers, who is one of the largest Negro poultry raisers in the state, and if not in the entire South, and who is also President of the Tennessee Colored Poultry Association, stated that the poultry market will never be flooded and no one need ever fear of it, but push up their sleeves and wade into it with their minds made up to succeed. He further stated that his orders are not confined to the city and suburban towns, but that he ships both young and old stock and eggs all over the country, and that during the hatching season his orders for eggs have been about all that he could handle. Mr. Landers is now going into the business on a very large scale, having purchased a tract of land about three and one-half miles out on the White's Creek Pike, which he is now getting in shape for the raising of standard thoroughbred poultry. It will be known as the Landers Poultry Farm. At his present location, it was learned that he turns out baby chicks by the thousands, and he stated that his orders for broilers last winter and spring were far more than he could handle, and he had to transfer some of them to other breeders. Some of them were received for as many as seventy-five, weighing from one to one and a half pounds, which he stated were easily produced in six or eight weeks, and that the price received from such was indeed handsome. At present he is engaged in raising the standard of the singled-comb Rhode Island Reds and the Indian Run Ducks, but will soon put in some of the other standard varieties. Mr. Lander's display attracted must attention at the Fair. The judge, who is a competent one, placed a handsome value of $50 on one of his pullets which was only six months old, hatched the 22nd day of March. His winships were as follows: first and third pullets, first and second cockrels, first Pen, second Cockbird in the Rhode Island Red class. The competition in this breed was the strongest in the room. In the ducks, first Drake, first Hen, first Pullet and first Pen. The yards of the Lander's Poultry Farm are open to visitors at all times.
Mrs. J. P. Crawford, proprietress of the Crawford Poultry Pen, had a fine display of single-comb Rhode Island Reds. Their winnings were second, fourth and fifth Pullet, first second, third, fourth and fifth Hen and second Pen. In the Ducks, second Pen. It was found in conversing with them that they were doing a nice business, only regretting that they did not have core space in which to enlarge the field, yet they are making some improvements. have more space in which to enlarge the field, yet they are making some improvements. Mr. T. M. Lytle won first singelcomb Rhode Island Red Cockbird. In the line of Black Minorca he swept the deck. Mr. L. K. Thomas, though a young beginner in the poultry business, came out with two wins, winning first trio in the Reds and second Cockbird in the Orpington class. Rev. N. H. Plus, proprietor of the Plus Pen, with his fine display of White Orpingtons, and who is regarded as one of the best informed Negroes in the country on the White Orpington breed, had a beautiful display which attracted much attention.

DR. J. A. JONES BEGS TO DIFFER
DOES NOT THINK $5,000.00 TOO MUCH.
Educational Assessment of African Methodist Defended by President of Turner College—Takes Issue With Mr. Bryant On The Subject.
Dr. J. A. Jones, president of Turner Normal College at Shelbyville does not agree with Mr. Ira T. Bryant in his position on the educational assessment placed on the membership for the benefit of Turner College at Shelbyville. Dr. Jones says:
I regret very much that my good friend and brother, Prof. Ira T. Bryant, in his fight on Bishop J. H. Jones, has found it necessary to drag into print, the educational assessment feature of our Church in Tennessee.
We are the best of friends, and even this discussion will not in any sense, mar that friendship. Mr. little
Bryant and I, are connectionally known as bosom friends. But we see things, sometimes, as friends, in a little different light. I have nothing whatever, to do with the forensic combat going on between Mr. Bryant and Bishops of the A. M. E. Church. I suppose they are all old enough to take care of their own cases. But it is the reference to the part that our people are expected to take in the educational interest of the state, that I wish to discuss.
I admit that there are quite a number of our people, especially the educated class, who think with my friend, Bryant, that $5,000 a year is to much to pay into the coffers of the church, for educational purposes. And yet for more than forty years, our people in Tennessee have been contributing to the support of other schools founded by other denominations. Four years ago, the African Methodists of Tennessee, through their representatives, decided to do something for themselves, as a denomination, in the way of the education of our people, by erecting suitable buildings and providing proper equipments for carrying on the work of a college. They levied an assessment upon the membership of just $5,000 from a membership of about 25,000. They think that 20 cents a year is too much. Indeed my friend calls it "lynching the church." I grant that the collection of this 20 cents per member, for the cause of education, is a hard job. I know as well as Mr. Bryant does, that many people regard it a heavy burden, grievous to be borne. But is it a fact that it is burdensome?
The majority of men consider the paying of both property and poll tax, a burden. And yet they know that somebody ought to pay it.
There are not five men out of a hundred, who cheerfully pay any kind of tax. It is the most unwilling, and disagreeable debt that the majority of men pay. They often make it the very last debt that they make up their minds to pay; and then they do it under penalty of the law.
A man may have the right to accumulate and hold as his own, a million dollars worth of taxable property, and we often find him dodging the "tax collector." It is no new thing for people to cry out against taxation. And this in the face of the fact that they know full well that no government can be built up, no cities could be maintained, no public school system could be operated without taxation.
Now, I grant, also that there are hundreds of members of the church, such as old and infirm members, and children, who might not be "able to" to pay even the 20 cents per year for education. That is always understood; but there are scores and hundreds of young men and young women, who are the beneficiaries of other people's benevolence, who have had the advantage of the best of education, and are now occupying lucrative positions, as a result of this charity, who could, if they would, make up for this deficit and not be hart in the least.
The truth is that the average educated, and wealthy Negro hardly ever sees his own race when it comes to lifting them up. They give largely to white institutions, or those operated by whites, but when they are asked to contribute to a real Negro enterprise or institution, they count it a "burden."
How many well-to-do Negroes have you ever heard of giving anything at their death to a Negro institution? A prominent Negro died a few months ago in your city, who left $7,000 to a white institution of learning. And he was a member of this tax-ridden church that my friend is so ably defending.
Thousands of dollars are pouring into the coffers of Tuskegee constantly; but Tuskegee is not a Negro institution. It belongs to another race. Deny it, who will.

ALL DEPARTMENT IN SPLENDID SHAPE.
Enrollment Continues to Increase—Athletic Teams Being Organized—Faculty and Students Visit Fair—To-day 'Clean Up Day'—People Invited.
Things at the A. & I. State Normal School are still booming. The work in the departments of Music, Business, Industry, Physical Training and Academic is in full blast, with a large enrollment in each. The students in all departments have entered into their work with great enthusiasm. The enrollment continues to increase.
While the school i san advocate of work, it is also a promoter of play and outdoor games as a means of recreation and physical development of the students. Already the young men have organized an athletic team. A great deal of time and energy have been spent in getting the Athletic in readiness. The young women as well will be interested in outdoor sports. The young men have worked faithfully getting the young women's tennis court in readiness.
The faculty and students are highly appreciative of Rev. Preston Taylor and the Fair Association for their kindness on Friday afternoon. Mr. Taylor admitted the entire school free to the State Fair, held at Greenwood Park. In addition, Mr. Taylor furnished special cars for the free transportation of the entire party. At the park the school made a demonstration of its appreciation by sending up yells for Mr. Taylor and Greenwood Park.
On Saturday evening at 7:30, at the main hall of the Administration Building, was held the first regular social of the term for students and teachers. The special committee on entertainments planned ver y successfully for the occasion.
All day Saturday was spent by the industrial teachers and students in building a coal bin and roads on the campus.
Friday, October 4th, at one p. m. is "Clean Up" Day at the Normal. All friends and patrons of the school are invited to participate. Already a large number have expressed that they are coming. The president wants one hundred persons in addition to those on the campus. They are desirous of clearing up the campus from the main building to the pike. There are gravel walks to be made and repaired, holes to be filled up, weeds to be pulled up, and trees to be trimmed up. Those who can give the service of their teams, shovels, hoes, or picks will be highly appreciated. Dinner will be served on the campus for all those who give notice beforehand of their coming. The larger the number, the less work for each one. Three hundred persons, each pulling up ten weeds, means that three thousand weeds will be pulled and no one overworked to do it.

WILL MARRY IN FLORIDA
Miss Alma L. Stevens, sister of Mr. Leslie G. Stevens, a railway mail clerk, will be married Sunday, October 6, at the home of her sister in Jacksonville, Fla. Miss Stevens was at one time a student of Fisk University and was also an employee of the Baptist Publishing House. She gained many friends while in Nashville, who wish for her a long, happy and prosperous life. The marriage is to be a quiet affair, only the contracting parties and members of the family and a few intimate friends will be present. Miss Stevens will marry a Mr. Dawson, of Jacksonville.
country, are contributing largely to their alma maters, helping them to grow. This is perfectly natural, and should be so.
White people do not give largely to Negro schools, and if the Negro would have colleges of his own, he must be willing to tax himself, and paddle his own canoe.
I fail to see that $5,000 is too heavy for 25,000 members, with their friends to raise for education, annually. And if the membership in Tennessee has considered it "lynching" no one yet has so expressed himself through the press, or in any other public way.

MOORESVILLE NOTES
the most of the enjoyable social events of the season was the banquet given by Prof. J. B. Jones to the McKenzie School base ball team last Tuesday evening, at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Henry Moore's on the Mooresville road. The school boys and girls enjoyed themselves by playing games and singing songs. The color scheme of red and white was carried out. At a late hour refreshments were served. In the center of the table was a miniature base ball diamond with teams in the field and at bat. All this was artistically arranged by Miss Cora Moore, the gifted daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Moore. Quite a large crowd was present to do honor to the occasion Toasts were given by each member of the team. The McKenzie school nine has not lost a game this season by defeat. They have played Lewisburg High School five games this season; won four of them and forfeited the fifth on account of rotten decisions of Lewisburg's unpire. We claim the championship of the county. Our school defeated Cornersville on the 28th to the tune of sixteen to four. This is the second time McKenzie School has defeated Cornersville this season. The picnic and educational rally given last Saturday was a grand success. Our school here under the management Prof. Jones and Miss L. M. Smiley is moving along nicely. Rev. A. Phillips of Lewisburg recently spent a day visiting Prof. Jones and school. While here Rev. Phillips delivered a very eloquent and timely address to the school and a large number of patrons who came out to hear him. We hope to have Rev. Phillips with us again. Miss L. M. Smiley attended the wedding of Mr. John French and Miss Ethel Braden at Laury's Chapel last Sunday. Mrs. Lou Hill and children of Nashville are visiting relatives here.

During the tour of the Agricultural
Special Train over the State, I made
the statement to thousands of farmers
that there was no time devoted to the
crop that paid better than seed selec-
tion, and that there is just as much de.
velopment in field seed ag there is
im live stock. I an: well aware of the
fact that a great many did not credit
this statement with its true sixmfi-
cance, so I am going to follow up my
line of argument: with corroborative
evidence. 1 will try most respectful-
ly call your attention to Bulletin No,
57 of the Virginia Department of Ag:
riculture, which has an article “Im-
Prove Your Seed Corn.”
The farmer should give as much
care and attention to the Improve.
ment of his seed corn as he does to
the improvement of his live stock. It
will pay him ust as much. No farmer
wa ts to breed from live stock that
has @ larger mixture of scrub blood,
Neither should he plant seed corn that
has a large mixture of pollen from
nubbins and barren stalks, for this
Kind of corn will produce nubbins and
barren stalks just as certainly as
scrub blood will shw from breeding
stock with scrub blood in them.
Then why nt plant a seed corm plot
off to itself and breed up your seed
corn year after year? In a few years
you will increase the yield of your
corn crop ten bushels or more per
acre without any extra cost.
The simplest kind of a seed corn
plot is one handled in the following
manner: In the first place, select the
best ears that you can find with which
to plant it; select ears of the type
that will yield the most in the average
season; ears of medium length with
a deep kernel, with straight, even
rows, and which are well filled at butt
and tip. Then test these ears to see
if they will germinate well. Then
Plant a plot from these ears just as
though you were planting an ordinary
field, and throughout the year give
it good, ordinary cultivation. If there
‘ig possibility that you may not give
‘a plot like this good care, it had bet-
‘ter be located on one side of the big
field than by itself. The time to give
especial attention to his sort of a plot
Is in the fall, at seed corn picking
time. By all means this crop must
be harvested and the corn dried and
stored in the best manner possible.
This sort of a seed corn plot is not
truly a breeding plot, It is just sim-
ply a plot of ground planted from the
best ears, given good cultivation and
to which special attention fs given at
harvest time. ‘The advantage of this
sort of seed plot to most farmers sim-
ply is that when they have a particu-
lar plot that they call their seed corn
plot, they are more likely to give spe-
cial attention at harvest time to pick-
‘ing thelr seed at the right time and
properly caring for it than when all
‘the corn is in a big fleld together, ‘The
benefit is more from proper harvest-
‘ing than from any true breeding, In
[this sort of & plot the character of
the stalks may also be taken into con-
sideration in picking seed,
A breeding plot takes but little
more time and trouble than the or-
| dinary plot, and in a few years pro-
duces much better results. In its sim-
|pllelty it is as follows: A number of
the best ears are collected as above.
‘The ears are numbered and each ear
{s planted in a row to itself, This, of
| course, takes extra time and trouble
at planting tlme, but is time for which
lin the end good pay is sure to be re
|ceived. Men who try this ear-to-n-row
| Planting for the first time are always
|astonished. One row, for instance,
that was planted from what appeared
to be tho best ear, may not do at all
well. The plants may be noticeably
shorter than those of the surrounding
rows, and yield less at harvest time.
Another row may tassel out three
or four days before any of the other
Tows and produce an earlior matur
ing crop. A man who will observe
this ear-to-row corn breeding will
learn much, and receive gdod pay
| for time so spent. Ordinary care is
given until tasseling time; then just
| a8 the tassels are coming out, go over
every other row of the entire plot
| and pull out all the tassels. It may
| be necessary to go over the entire
plot several times in order to get all
the tassels of every other row. In
the fall, seed corn will be selected
only from the rows which were detas.
seled. This is important, for it has
been proved beyond all doubt thet in-
bred corn, that is, corn whose ears

seed corr for planting the entire croy

erably of course, from the high yiela-
ing ones. This method means that
care must be taken at planting, tas-
seling and at the harvest time,
Breeding of this sort must be kept
up for several years before the results
are felt to any great extent in the
neld; but improvement is bound to
come and may result in the increase
in yleld of all corn on the farm of
as much as ten to fifteen bushels to
the acre. Such increases which’ are
due to breeding alone are net profit.

PROF. F. G. SMITH EXPLAINS,
(Continued from Page 1.)
ent and I were alone and he did not
seem: to be in a hurry. I felt that
the hour was favorable for me to
bring up the matter and put in some
good licks on a subject that was dear
to the heart of every Negro in Nash-
ville—the new High School. During
the conversation the Superintendent
asked me where did I think the school
should be located when the time came
to erect one. The question came
without warning and I had given no
thought to the location, so I replied
that; the present site I thought would
be' satisfactory if enough land could
be bought on the South and on the
north of the building to give us space
enough. This was not a recommenda-
tion. It was simply a reply to a.ques-
tion between two people, and the lo-
cation mentioned was the present
site, where the school has been lo-
cated long before I was made Prin-
cipal and I have never heard hefore
of the Globe raising any objection to
it. Black Bottom covers a wide ter-
ritory. It is bounded on the north by
Broad street, on the south by Pea-
body, on the east by Front and
the west by Fifth avenue. The
Globe is unfair to me when it states
that I recommended this area, It
is unfair when it states that I think
Black Bottom the best place for the
new school, because that statement
leaves the impression that anywhere
in Black Bottom will do. I spoke
only of the present site, ‘The white
High Schoo! was built on its old site
and the present site of Pearl is about
the only site in the center of the city
that would not create race antagonism:
and criticism. ‘The white people have
become used to the school being lo-
cated here. It is very painful, Mr,
Editor, and also discouraging, to think
that while 1 was fighting the battle
for the chiidren, protecting thelr in-
terests, single-handed and alone, and
going as far as prudence and good
Senso would allow in looking efter
their interest that you should write
me up in such a sensational way.
Did you feel hurt because you were
hot consulted? I know it is a cus-
tom with some people to jump on the
teachers and Jambast them when there
is nothing else to jump on, They feel
that teachers are ‘seared of their jobs
and won't strike back. This is a
wrong attitude, Teachers as a rule,
are hard-worked and poorly paid.
They need the sympatay and help of
all citizens. ‘The Globe cen help us
in our work a great deal if it will.
On» more thing, and I am done,
The Globe says Black Bottom is the
home of murderers, gamblers and
drunkards. It is described as one
worst dives in the country. ‘This may
all be true. I accept the Globe as an
authority because from personal
knowledge I know very little abont it,
But what has the Globe done to puri.
fy it or make it better? I not Black
‘Bottom largely inhabited by our own
‘People? The truth is, Black Bottom
1s what it is because of the Negroes
‘there and the few white men who eam
aliveliiood from them, -Does the Globe
know that it may not be possible for
us to keep the present site of Fear!
High School, even, if all the Negroes
in Nashville agree to it? 1 under-
stand that another movement is to be
launched to wipe opt Black Bottom
and to build a park there. When this
ig done, there is some talk of using
the present Hay Market spot for an
athletic fleld for the new white High
School. Pearl may then be moved,
It was the thought of the removal of
Pearl that caused me to mention to
the school the question asked me by
the Superintendent as to where 1}
thought the new school should be Io
cated. Some one had complained to
the Superintendent that my pupils
were going three and four abreast. ot
the sidewalk and taking up the whole
pavement on the way to and from
School. I was lecturing the school on
street behavior and advised them tc
be circumspect in thelr conduct. Ir
the course of my remarks I statec
that Pearl was the only Negro schoo
situated in the heart of the city an¢
that it was the cynosure of all eyes
All other schools were situated in the
suburbs, or in the outer rim of the
circle. I wanted my children to a
act, and to be 80 careful and s0 con
siderate of the rights of others that
if the school was ever moved, no ac
cusation could be made that they
were the cause of it I then re
marked that only the other day the
Superintendent asked me about a sit
for the new High School, and repeat
ed my reply.
Now, Mr. Editor, T ask you to pub
lish this communication that this
“tempest in a teapot” which you have
| raised may be sotled. Of cours
that part of your aiticie about “tears

Nashville Negroes aroused” wa:

house servants has always been re-

Southern planter-baron held the same
relative social position as that occu

no one could ctaim to be a member
of the social elect except he employed
colored servants, The South set the

NASHVILLE, TENNESSEE.
First, the South has lost its social
ascendeney and the presence of col-
ored servants no longer indicates
that their employers belong to an ex:
chusive social caste,
When our ultra fashionables began
te go abroad they began to ape
foreign manners and methods on
their return home. ‘The time soon
came when things in the line.of do-
mestic service to be first-class had to
be “English, you know.”
‘A second cause that operated con-
currently with and perhaps more po-
tently than the first was the fact that
‘the house servant ceased to represent
the social elite among the colored
people themselves as they formerly
did. Indeed, there was a time when
the more polished house servant did
not hesitate to discriminate against
‘his farm-hand brother; and the well-
known fact that very often these ser-
‘vants were related ‘by blood to the
master of the house tended to sustain
|this snobbish attitude, ‘The training
that was imparted to the old house
|servants undoubtedly dfd add a polish
jto their manners that was calculated
‘8 render them distinguished for
courtesy in most any company. Hay:
jing won such distinction besides hav-
ing a sort of hereditary training for
\the work, it was very easy for colored
|Persons of a certain type to get em-
ployment as domestics until the be
\fore-mentioned forces, working to
|gether, brought the change in connec:
tion with which it abpears that the
|master lost quite as much as the ser
vant,
| ‘The son of the mechante and farm
er, on the other hand, never having
\had much aptitude for the work o}
‘house servant and less taste for
|mmediately after emanctpation
turned his talents to trading and the
\professions, with the result that th
house servant soon lost his socta
|prestige aifd preeminence. ‘The mor
ambitious colored youths, therefore
no longer aspire to be house servants
and will follow the calling only tony
enough to secure sufficient education
or money to do something else, ‘Th
rapid transition of the brightest an
|most competent colored men from th
{position of waiter, for instance, ha
given great Impetus to the emplo3
hient of forelgners, who tend to loo
uvon the work asa lifetime calling
‘This is especially noficeable in th
case of hotels and cafes operated 0

system demands as much qufcknes

BASKETBALL AMONG COLORED
PLAYERS.
By Bawin B. Henderson, Physieal pl
rector Colored High Schools, Wadh-
igton, D. D,, in the Amsterdam
News,
Alcendy baskejtall players tn New
York City are dropping the Inflated
sphere through the ring and get in
hotly contested games, while their
tore Southern brothers will hardly
clazh on the court before the knell of
football season around ‘Thanksgiving
time, In our colored schools and col-
eges foothall takes so many of the
‘star baskethall players that little at-
tention 1s given the game until later.
‘That basketball will be more popu-
lar than ever this year is assured.
From the standpoint of both scholas-
tic and ameteur basketball the game
|will be given a boost. In collegiate
circles the newly organized intercol-
leglate Athletic Assocfation wih,
through {ts rules and government,
make for keener competition and
jmore interesting sport. Last. season
marked the entry of colored colleges
Jin the field of basketball. ‘Three of
|the big four in the Middle Atlantic
district met, Howard University
team had played the game for a long-
Jer time and carried experienced men.
Lincoln University was not so favored
{nor was Hampton, but it was up to
Hampton to put ‘the first crimp in
the crown so long won by the Blue
and White team of this city. No one
had heard of Gurnoe, the Indian, un-
til Howard went to Hampton, and
then much discussion arose as to the
comparative merit of the—for a long
time—incomparable “Huddy” Oliver
Jand the “Redskin.” Lincoln played
|Howard in the old True Reformers
{Hall at Washington and did little bu’
|watch the ball switch for Howard
'|Hampton is the only one of the col
-|leges in this section that has a gym
‘Jnasium and wil’ be a big factor in
,Jeollegiate basketball. Lincoln Unt
versity is not favored with a good
-|practice court, but is In a fleld offer
_|ing splendid practice competition with
"|the many and good teams in Phila
.{delphia. When Howard erects 1
gymnasium a better varsity aggregs
‘tion will exist than now holds premfe
honors, In the far South, ‘Tuskege
won an unbroken string of, victories
while in the West Wilberforce me
t{and defeated the few colored team
.}in its nelghborhood. More sport wil
s {be observed in these two sections dur
.}ing the coming term.
y| In Washington City two series 0
1/games will be conducted for second
{ary vechool teams, one to be for th
{ |interscholastic championship and th
- jother for the public school champior

among the youth of the grat
schools of the city. Unfortunately
the Board of Education of Baltimore
has adopted a most non-progressive
stand in regard to school athletics;
that of refusing to permit athletic
teams to officially represent the
schools, It is bad that a looge con-
struction cannot be given a rule that
1s. 80. largely responsible in keeping
schoolboy athletics among colored
boys far behind what it should be
in a elty where the colored popula-
tion is proportionally so large. How-
‘ever, the efforts of the young men of
the Dunbar Club may be the means
‘of bringing Baltimore to the fore-
front.
The lack of newspaper publicity 1s
jal that prevents Philadelphia being
considered a hot bed of basketball
activity. The Stentonworth Athletic
Club is the championship organiza-
tion, with the Y. M. C. A., the Wissa-
hickon Boys’ Club, the “S” Club and
other runnersup in their various
classes.
In Pittsburg the Monticellos have
made themselves famous in the East
by trimming a crack five of Howard
University that essayed to win West-
jern honors in the Smoky City. This
team will be brought to Washington
this year and may be tempted to take
the trip North. From all angles it is
a first-rate basketball team and will
make things hum around the elreutt,
| It might be well in this article to
alr a few points of discussion that
jmight bring benefit to the game
among us. First, a lover of the game
‘hates to read of the almost annually
occurring wrangle among many of the
"leading clubs in the elty of New York.
‘It seems to be the result of too
,/many independent clubs running bas-
‘Ketball almost entirely from their
||own points of view. Editor Hebbron
of the A. A, U, Handbook deplores the
, tendency to run basketball teams {n-
dependently, and suggests that there
| |be more league formations. Were a
;|commission formed to classify teams,
arrange a schedule, make rules of
eligibility of players, with men acting
‘|thereon solely for the good of the
game minus the influence of compet
;|ing clubs, a model situation it would
~|de. Many colored schools were once
j|in the habit of putting teams in vari
{ous sports only when it was definitely
; assured that the team had a winning
Jchance, with the result that a reall3
; {800d team was selflom or never bull

treatment from a physician but was growing worse. After using LUNG
VITA a short time, I was able to return to work, and have not lost a day

colored teachers in Nashville.
‘These have all been built and dedi-
cated to the great cause of educa-
tion, and are today instructing young
men and women how to teach the
youth of Tennessee; and I shoul
want no more noble monuments to
my memory than this service my po-
sition enabled me to Fender the Slate
and humanity,
Ignoring the important pub!to ser-
vice I have rendered, every effort
and ingenuity has been employed to
poison the public mind; and my par-
don record, for which I should haye
received the unstinted praise of the
Christian men and women of Ten-
nessee, was seized upon as furnishing
ground for attack by those who
could not use me, and whose ideas
of government and questionable poll-
tical methods I was forced to com-
bat.
Pardons,
My countrymen, I have made mis-
takes; for no one man can lay claim to
infallibility; but I have challenged in
the past, and now challenge, anyone
to show’ a single instance where I
have abused the pardoning power,
acted from any unworthy motive, or
received the slightest personal bene-
fit.
From my study ‘of the criminal
law, long before I was Governor, I
came to the conclusion that its ad-
ministration was too often uncertain,
that our system of punishments was
‘gjeruel relic of barbarous days. and
unwortliy the civilization of a
Christian people. When I was
clothed with the power I made a
firm resolve to relieve those, wher:
ever I could, who had been aban-
doned by the world. So I went
among the prisoners in the peniten:
tiary and at the mines, talked with
‘them, found out their conditions and
‘got from them a history of thelr
‘cases, Many of these I found’ appeal
ing and piteous objects of humanity,
sick and disabled, without hope or a
‘friend on earth who could ald them;
‘and I could not steel my heart to
‘their eries for mercy. I would never
‘let an immature boy, white or black
‘remain in prison; and I thank Goi
that I gave them all their only chance
|for redemption.

I come before you as a Democratic
candidate for the United State Se-
‘nate, for the long term beginning
jon the 4th of March, and my candi-
idacy is subject to the will of the peo-
ple, to be expressed in a preferential

if any candidate has no opposition at
that date, I will be the nominee of
the Democratic party, and my title
|will be as clear as if the opposition
had continued and the primary had
deen held.
If I should not be your choice, no
man will do more to seo the will of
the people properly recorded; and,
if 1 am selected, my best efforts and

|be given to the service of my State

In times past the South has not
‘|received her proportional share of
improvements of a public charcter,
/nor has she been sufficiently self-as-
‘|sertive in making her demands for
| just ‘recognition.
‘We need extensions of the Rural
-|Free Delivery service, more and bet-
‘|ter public buildings, and enough
.|money appropriated, in a continuous
‘and definite way, to open the Cum-
.|berland and Tennessee rivers to na-
|vigation the year round.
| Tf these streams had been located
-|in a Northern State that had been
in the habit of voting the Republican
ticket, they would have long since
been ‘opened up to continuous com-
merce, and the inexhaustible stores
jot timber and mineral wealth bound-
jing their shores on elther sfde—
now lying dormant and unexplored—
would have been developed and en-
tered into the trade markets of the
world,
Then, too, the Government owes
the duty of the Mississippi River
which it can no longer neglect, Ris-
ing in the farthest North, it tra-
verses the continent, it recelves al!
the waters from the Rocky Moun-
tains on the West and the Allegantes

which the lowlands have passed, on
both sides of the great river, from
Cairo to the Gulf, were almost in-
deseribable, Ruin ‘and hayoc follow-
ed the fearful rush of waters and the
richest portions of the United States
were at their mercy.
‘These great areas lof land must
‘be protected and reclaimed, for they
fare capable of supportinng not Only
an enormous population, but of re

sandfold more than the cost of thelr
