NASHVILLE GLOBE. NASHVILLE OFFERS OPPORTUNITY Vol. VII. 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 NASHVILLE, TENN., FRIDAY OCTOBER 4, 1912. COMMITTEE OF MANAGEMENT TRANSACT BUSINESS. 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. Members in Attendance.

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. (Continued on Page 4.) 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. The alumni of Fisk.

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.

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. J A. JONES. 2 CORNSVILLE NOTES. Mrs. O. C.

L. Garrison, Chief Feed and Seed Inspector 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 selection, and that there is just as much development in field seed as there is in live stock. I am well aware of the fact that a great many did not credit this statement with its true significance, so I am going to follow up my line of argument with corroborative evidence. I will try most respectfully call your attention to Bulletin No. 57 of the Virginia Department of Agriculture, which has an article "Improve Your Seed Corn." The farmer should give as much care and attention to the improvement of his seed corn as he does to the improvement of his live stock. It will pay him ust as much. No farmer waits to breed from live stock that has a larger mixture of scrub blood. Neither should he plant seed corn that has a larger 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 swim from breeding stock with scrub blood in them. Then why nt plant a seed corn 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 is possibility that you may not give a plot like this good care, it had better 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 simply a plot of ground planted from the best ears, given good cultivation and to which special attention is given at harvest time. The advantage of this sort of seed plot to most farmers simply is that when they have a particular plot that they call their seed corn plot, they are more likely to give special attention at harvest time to picking their seed at the right time and properly caring for it than when all the corn is in a big field together. The benefit is more from proper harvesting than from any true breeding. In this sort of a plet the character of the stalks may also be taken into consideration in picking seed. A breeding plot takes but little more time and trouble than the ordinary plot, and in a few years produces much better results. In its simplicity it is as follows: A number of the best ears are collected as above. The ears are numbered and each ear is planted in a row to itself. This, of course, takes extra time and trouble at planting time, but is time for which in the end good pay is sure to be received. Men who try this ear-to-a-row planting for the first time are always astonished. One row, for instance, that was planted from what appeared to be the 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 rows and produce an earlier maturing crop. A man who will observe this ear-to-row corn breeding will learn much, and receive good pay for time so spent. Ordinary care is given until tasseling time; then just as 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 detached. This is important, for it has been proved beyond all doubt that inbred corn, that is, corn whose ears have been pollenated by pollen from the same plant or from brother plants will not produce nearly as much as cross-bred corn. When harvest time comes, the product of these detasseed ears is weighed separately, and it is determined which ear yielded best and produced the most sound corn of a good type. Of course, it is from such rows that the seed for future seed corn breeding plots will be selected. The seed corn for planting the entire crop of the next year may be selected from any of the rows in the plot; but pref- erability of course, from the high yielding ones. This method means that care must be taken at planting, tasseling 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 yield 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.) the matter could be gone into. It was then decided by the Superintendent over my protest that we should continue temporarily to use the old books. It was on this visit that I thought I saw an opportunity to speak in behalf of a new High School for Negroes. The Superintendent 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 Nashville—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 recommendation. It was simply a reply to a question between two people, and the location mentioned was the present site, where the school has been located long before I was made Principal and I have never heard before of the Globe raising any objection to it. Black Bottom covers a wide territory. It is bounded on the north by Broad street, on the south by Peabody, 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 School 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 located here. It is very painful. Mr. Editor, and also discouraging, to think that while I was fighting the battle for the children, protecting their interests, single-handed and alone, and going as far as prudence and good sense would allow in looking after their interest that you should write me up in such a sensational way. Did you feel hurt because you were not consulted? I know it is a custom with some people to jump on the teachers and lambast them when there is nothing else to jump on. They feel that teachers are scared 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 sympathy and help of all citizens. The Globe can help us in our work a great deal if they One 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 about it. But what has the Globe done to purify it or make it better? Is not Black Bottom largely inhabited by our own people? The truth is. Black Bottom is what it is because of the Negroes there and the few white men who earn a livelihood from them. Does the Globe know that it may not be possible for us to keep the present site of Pearl High School, even, if all the Negroes in Nashville agree to it? I understand that another movement is to be launched to wipe opt Black Bottom and to build a park there. When this is done, there is some talk of using the present Hay Market spot for an athletic field 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 I thought the new school should be located. Some one had complained to the Superintendent that my pupils were going three and four abreast on 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 to be circumspect in their conduct. In the course of my remarks I stated that Pearl was the only Negro school situated in the heart of the city and 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 so act, and to be so careful and so considerate of the rights of others that, if the school was ever moved, no accusation could be made that they were the cause of it. I then remarked that only the other day the Superintendent asked me about a site for the new High School, and repeated my reply. Now, Mr. Editor, I ask you to publish this communication that this "tempest in a teapot" which you have raised may be settled. Of course that part of your article about "tears streaming down the cheeks of the children" and "indignation of the Nashville Negroes aroused" was highly colored and inserted for effect to make the Globe sell. Nashville people understand the Globe pretty well. In conclusion, allow me to say that if in my seal to help the children and to see that they received the benefit of every improvement introduced into our course of study I have made any mistakes, it was an error of the head and not of the heart.

FRIDAY, OCTOBER 4, 1912. Emancipation. From many parts of the country we observe news relative to the celebration of the 60th anniversary of the Emancipation of the Negro slaves in the United States. It is the opinion of a large majority that the proper time to celebrate this anniversary is the first day of January, 1913. Some, however, chose the 22nd day of September. Be this as it may, it is befitting that the Negroes of this country take cognizance of the fact that fifty years ago their conditions and surroundings were far different from what they are now. There are many yet living who remember well the scourge of slavery, and there are more who have observed the progress made by the race in later years. No one has cause to be ashamed of that progress. Fifty years ago there was not a Negro doctor south of the Mason and Dixon line. To-day Meharry Medical College, located in the city of Nashville, can boast of having graduated more than a thousand doctors. Fifty years ago Negroes were not allowed to read books south of the Mason and Dixon line. To-day that state that would attempt to deprive its black citizens of all school privileges would be frowned upon by the entire nation. Fifty years ago Negroes did not own their own hands south of the Mason and d Dixon line; not even those who were called free Negroes, for they were under certain restrictions that made them only part free; to-day it is a criminal offense for any man in this nation to hold an other man in bondage. Many and great are the changes that might be enumerated, but space will not permit. In its final analysis, the difference in fifty years ago and now is sufficient to warrant the Negroes of this country in celebrating the fiftieth anniversary of their freedom. And they owe it to themselves and to the world to show what they have accomplished in that time. Nashville and Tennessee not seem to be fully alive to the importance of this occasion. Doubless thousands are thinking about it, especially those who were old enough at the close of the civil war to have sufficiently suffered the lash of the slaveholder, and those who know something of the bitter experiences of Ku Kluxing; but the rank and file of the people in this state have not shown that interest that should be shown by a people who have been so wonderfully blessed. There are some Negroes who want to forget slavery and who endeavor to keep a knowledge of those times from their children. There are those of fewer years who have a desire not to know of slavery time and who do not like for their parents to tell them of their hardships. The late Frederick Doug lass, speaking before an English audience on one occasion, asked them not to judge the Negroes of the United States by the heights to which they had climbed, but rather from the depths from which they had come All races and nations in the world who have risen to lofty heights have done so by struggling, by enduring privations and hardships. In Holy Writ we are told how the children of Israel, when being led by Moses, ate bitter herbs on their departure from the land of Egypt, and that when they crossed the Red Sea on that memorable occasion, they took stones from the bed of the river and built monuments to which they might refer in years to come, to teach their children the cost of liberty. In all countries to-day we will find statues and monuments erected in memory of some bitter struggle or great achievement. These things are necessary as an encouragement to unborn generations to teach them when troubles NASHVILLE GLOBE, FRIDAY, OCTOBER 4, 1912 come and obstacles confront them, that all nations have had to endure the same. The Negro in America cannot hope to make progress and to establish himself as a factor in the nation unless he is willing to acknowledge all of the privations that his foreparents endured, and to give the glory to his maker that his condition is such today that he can at least feel that he is a citizen of a free country. The Negroes of Tennesse have played well their part in the great drama of educating and training Negroes of this nation. The splendid educational institutions located in Nashville can point to all parts of the world and say: "That star is the product of our labors." And as a publishing center Nashville leads the black people of the world. Dotted here and there from the east to the west of the state are to be found farmers, manufacturers and business men who take their places side by side with other Negroes and form that great army of men and women who are contributing their part to the uplift of this great people. In view of these facts, Tennessee Negroes should not be behind the Negroes of other states in celebrating, in an appropriate way, this memorable occasion. It should be gone about in a proper way. No city or section of the state should feel that the right to do this belongs to then; but a movement should be started with the intention of creating an interest, that would make the people of this great state work with one accord, and thereby cause the Negroes of Tennessee to fully review the progress they have so nobly made in these fifty years of freedom. Negro Voters. The fall of 1912 will long be remembered in the history of this nation for its political strenuosity. There has been no time in this country when the Negro voter had the opportunity to play such an important part in the policy of the nation. The professional politicians are laboring night and day to carry a point. Every fellow is presenting the bright side of his view of the matter; and there is some truth in the platforms of all parties. This campaign will be remembered as an independent crusade. No one is able to predict at this stage what party will succeed. It looks bright one day for this party and the next day it looks bright for the other; but the reports in newspapers do not express always the sentiment of the voters. The first great duty the Negro owes to his country in this crisis is to prepare himself to exercise his franchise right, whatever the qualifications are. Every man should pay his taxes, register, get his receipt for his registration and poll taxes and put them away where he can find them on the morning of the 5th day of November; and then he should study the many questions that are being discussed by different parties. He should lose sight of the man; no difference who started the party, for those who were the fathers of a party may all be in the great beyond, and those men who are asking to be the administrators of government may be as far from the principles laid down by the early fathers as the east is from the west. Conditions are not now what they were fifty years ago, and it is the present day condition that should be given consideration. It is being preached to Negroes that the republican party is his ship and that all other parties are a raging sea to him. This is all false and does not deserve a minute's consideration. For if the republican party is a ship fifty years old, it may be moth eaten now and unable to stand the great storms raging upon the political sea. What this nation wants is a modern, well constructed ship, made to meet the twentieth century conditions, and a party that is supporting a platform based upon surh principles as will best serve the nation. There are some collectors and insurance agents in this town who have not yet learned how to approach ladies. May the day come, and that soon, when Negro housewives will learn to shut the door in the face of any collector or agent who starts in her house with a big pipe in his mouth and his hat on his head and essays to address her as "Amr" or "Sarah." Presidents of Negro Colleges Since the resignation of Dr. Gates the question has again been asked: "Is there a Negro anywhere in this country who is capable of filling the position as President of Fisk University?" The Fellowship Herald of Chicago has the following to say on this subject: FISK UNIVERSITY'S PRESIDEN. Fisk University, according to the Nashville Globe, is without a president. President G. W. Gates having resigned because of ill-health. It will resigned because of ill-health. It will now be in order for Negroes to say that the time has not come for a Ne gro president at Fisk, just as they said when the presidency of Howard University was vacant. A second rate white preacher who had retired from the ministry with no especial reputation for executive ability, was elected to fill that vacancy, with the acquiescence of Howard University's Negro constituency. So it will be with Fisk, and yet these things could not be if the Negro as a unit would say: "After forty years of education there must be men of the Negro race qualified to fill these posts. We demand that they be given a chance to show what they can do, thus get the necessary experience and develop executive ability.'—The Fellowship Herald. The Globe is in full accord with the opinion expressed by the Herald. We believe that the time is opportune when the administration of affairs at Fisk University should be placed in the hands of a Negro president. The men who have been at the head of this institution have, without exception, been able and worthy men. The name of the late Dr. Cravath will always be revered by the Negroes of the South and the nation. Dr. Merrill, who succeeded him, was an able man, and a big-hearted, Christian gentleman. All regretted to see him leave the institution, and today he is as deeply interseted in Fisk University as he was when active president. Dr. Gates, who succeeded him, was a man with ripe experience, and the trustees were very fortunate in securing him as a successor to Dr. Merrill. And now, broken down as he is in health, he is also broken hearted because he cannot continue the work so well begun. It must be admitted, however, that white men who can fill such positions as president of Fisk University can in most cases find positions that will pay them better, and which will not deprive them of their social standing with their own race. It is not human nature for men to love other races more than their own, and right here lies the danger pointed out by the Herald when it says that in the case of Howard University a retired, broken down, unknown preacher was elected president of that university in preference to an able, strong, energetic Negro that could have been found. There are men who still hold that it is yet too early to place a Negro at the head of Fisk University. Such persons are without courage and wise foresight. There are Negro men who are thoroughly able to guide the destiny of that institution. There are graduates of Fisk who have been recognized by the leading educational organizations of the world, having studied in the highest institutions of this country and in the Old World. They have spent their lives preparing themselves to lead their own people. They are acknowledged to be the peer of the ripest scholars in this age. They have proven their executive ability, and yet there are some Negroes who are so blind as to say that these men are not capable of filling the office of president of a university. They are compelled to admit that their opinion is wholly suppositional. No Negro has failed as president of that institution, for no one has been tried The idea that Negroes cannot collect money for educational purposes should not be advanced, for they have proven beyond contradiction that they can do so. And if they are able to collect money for other educational institutions, both for higher learning and industrial training, why is it a Negro man cannot be found who can do the same thing for Fisk University? The time is ripe for such a move, and there is a great host of Negroes who are anxious and who are praying that the trustees of the university will arise to the demands of the times and place at the head of this great institution one of the many Negroes who have fitted themselves for so lofty a position. Our Young People. With the approach of fall and the closing of outdoor places of recreation comes a retreat to the places of amusement in the city. And with this change of case comes a new evil. Young people who have been accustomed to spending their evenings in the parks are now found in the clubrooms and on the street corners. It is a pitiable sight to stand on the corner of some up-town streets and watch the young people loiter around. Girls of tender years and boys in their teens can be seen in drows going to and fro and huddled on the street corners in aimless gossip. Lit. the children are also seen at late hours of night running at will. What can the parents of these young people hope for them, and why should they complain when they find their children in the clutches of the law? It is hard for grown people to keep themselves in the paths of rectitude, and it cannot be expected that the children and young misses and lads can do so who do not realize the dangers in the paths they are frequenting. The minister of the Gospel is often censured for not speaking against these evils. The Sunday-school teachers and superintendents, the teachers in the public schools are censured for not training young people in the right method of living. But all the preachers and all the teachers cannot rear the children of the people. This duty devolves upon the parents. They alone can be equal to the emergency. Too many parents allow their children to run at will. Many of them are living upright lives themselves. They are church members, honest, hard-working people, and they desire that their children follow in their footsteps; but they get too busy to look after them. The great desire to make money and in the struggle to buy a little home and accumulate a few dollars for a rainy day they overlook the great importance of properly training the children for whom they are tolling. The greatest asset of any home is the child; and they will become valuable in proportion to the pains parents take to properly train them. Many parents spend night after night at the church and the lodge, but forget that after all it is all for the benefit of the children, but the time spent in the lodge and the church is ill spent when the children are neglected. Parents in Nashville, and everywhere for that matter, must awaken to the fact that they owe their first duty to the home. We do not mean to impress anyone that they should not give sufficient time to the church and to all institutions that are for the uplift of the community, but we would have it clearly understood that these institutions cannot survive unless the offsprings of those conducting them are trained to lead to be worthy of leadership in these institutions. It is not sufficient to say that the child is educated and ought to know right from wrong. They do know right from wrong; but may choose to do wrong. Young people are more given to yielding to temptations than old people for the simple reason that the cares of life have not yet evolved upon them, and with the best training and careful attention some children will go wrong after all; but if parents will give the proper attention to their children and will make themselves their companions, in most cases they will emulate them. Aside from those who desire that their children make good citizens, there is a great host of people who are mothers and fathers of children, but who have no care for their future. In fact, they have no care for themselves. They never give the future a thought. It is simply a matter of living today. Their children come in contact with the children of those parents who desire that their offsprings be citizens of the highest character, therefore the upright men and women have a double battle to fight. They must train their children to take care of themselves and to take care of other children who are neglected by their parents. The situation in Nashville is alarming, and unless the parents awaken to the full sense of their duty, the day is not far distant when the Negro citizenship in this city will drop to a low depth. EDITORIAL CLIPPINGS As times goes on we are more and more impressed with the idea that the element of colored folk who refuse to patronize their own race in a business are a positive evil in the community. We have weak and feeble business everywhere, scattered over the country which should be strong and vigorous if our leading people would patronize it. It would mean much if they would. Our children could get work, such of them as are worthy.—Savannah Independent FORMAL OPENING OF TURNER NORMAL (Continued from Page 1.) specs the ablest that has been delivered on such an occasion.

First, the South has lost its social ascendency and the presence of colored servants no longer indicates that their employers belong to an exclusive social caste. When our ultra fashionables began to go abroad they began to ape foreign manners and methods on their return home. The time soon came when things in the line of domestic service to be first-class had to be "English, you know." A second cause that operated concurrently with and perhaps more potently 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 servants were related by blood to the master of the house tended to sustain this snobish attitude. The training that was imparted to the old house servants undoubtedly did add a polish to their manners that was calculated to render them distinguished for courtesy in most any company. Having won such distinction besides having a sort of hereditary training for the work, it was very easy for colored persons of a certain type to get employment as domestics until the be fore-mentioned forces, working to gether, brought the change in connection with which it appears that the master lost quite as much as the servant. The son of the mechanic and farmer, on the other hand, never having had much aptitude for the work of house servant and less taste for it immediately after emancipation, turned his talents to trading and the professions, with the result that the house servant soon lost his social prestige and pre-eminence. The more ambitious colored youths, therefore, no longer aspire to be house servants, and will follow the calling only long enough to secure sufficient education or money to do something else. The rapid transition of the brightest and most competent colored men from the position of waiter, for instance, has given great impetus to the employment of foreigners, who tend to look upon the work as a life-time calling. This is especially officilease in the case of hotels and cafes operated on the European plan, where the check system demands as much quickness at figures as a clerk in any ordinary business house would need. But the type of colored men who might easily keep the pace or lead under this system will not follow it after leaving school, for it appeals to them no more than it does to other native Americans. Still no people as a whole have been more helped by a given sort of employment than the colored people have been by the calling of the waiter. Fully ninety per cent, of their first professional and business men secure their education or start in life as waiters. From this common starting point they have branched out in all directions. And while the race may be losing some prestige as house servants, they are more than making up the loss in their new fields of endeavor. Those who leave domestic service accomplish a two-fold good. They create new callings generally of a higher class to give hope and inspiration to those that follow and at the same time they leave more room for those who cannot, by reason of defective education or otherwise, get beyond the pale. There are some who could never be anything else but good waiters, and if there are poor lawyers and doctors who might be good waiters, it is better on the whole to have them practice law or medicine than to have them crowd the other good waiters to the wall. So far as public or hotel waiting is concerned, the good waiter is just as important to his employer as the good clerk, and, indeed the employer requires quite as much intelligence in one case as the other. The position of house servant is stigmatized be- 424 Cedar St., OUR CREDIT SYSTEM IS THE BEST IN NASHVILLE THE COLORED HOUSE SERVANT. By George W. Mitchell, Esq. By George W. Mitchell, Esq. The number and character of one's house servants has always been regarded as a sort of index to his social standing. In days gone by, when the Southern planter-baron held the same relative social position as that occupied by our trust magnates of to-day, no one could claim to be a member of the social elect except he employed colored servants. The South set the pace for lavish entertainment and hospitality and thus the fame of the colored cook and house servant be came national. The position of the colored house servant is far different to-day, and the change has been brought about mainly by two things Why Not Make Your Children Happy on Christmas Morning?

And while some foolish persons may still take a servant's courtesy for servility and some prideless servants may still snivel too much for a tip, the time has long since passed when house servants are slaves, and, sooner or later, the world must recognize that fact and learn to regard the hotel waiter, for instance, as it does a grocery clerk. water side and everybody was in happy.

Henderson, Physical Director Colored High Schools, Washington, D. D., in the Amsterdam News. Already basketball players in New York City are dropping the inflated sphere through the ring and get in hotly contested games, while their more Southern brothers will hardly clash on the court before the knell of football season around Thanksgiving time. In our colored schools and colleges football takes so many of the star basketball players that little attention is given the game until later. That basketball will be more popular than ever this year is assured. From the standpoint of both scholastic and amateur basketball the game will be given a boost. In collegiate circles the newly organized intercollegiate Athletic Association will, through its rules and government, make for keener competition and more interesting sport. Last season marked the entry of colored colleges in the field of basketball. Three of the big four in the Middle Atlantic district met. Howard University team had played the game for a longer 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, until Howard went to Hampton, and then much discussion arose as to the comparative merit of the—the for a long time—incompatible "Huddy" Olver and the "Redskins." Lincoln played Howard in the old True Reformers' Hall at Washington and did little but watch the ball switch for Howard. Hampton is the only one of the colleges in this section that has a gymnasium and will be a big factor in collegiate basketball. Lincoln University is not favored with a good practice court, but is in a field offering splendid practice competition with the many and good teams in Phila delphia. When Howard erects a gymnasium a better varsity aggregation will exist than now holds premier honors. In the far South, Tuskegee won an unbroken string of victories while in the West Wilberforce met and defeated the few colored teams in its neighborhood. More sport will be observed in these two sections during the coming term. In Washington City two series of games will be conducted for secondary school teams, one to be for the interscholastic championship and the other for the public school championship. The existence of three suitable courts for basketball creates an almost ideal situation. True Reformer's Hall will be the most inferior court of the three. The Y. M. C. A. gymnasium and the Armstrong Manual Training School gymnasium are ideal in playing arrangement, although not so many spectators can be accommodated as could be crowded in the old hall. Two of the best scholastic players in the city will enter Howard College this fall and should make some of the other players hustle to hold down their jobs. Both Lafayette of last year Academy team and Holland of M Street High School's championship five will be seen on the metropolitan city courts in a year or two. Rector, formerly of the Smart Set aggregation, improved enough to make the M Street team in his first year there, and this year is given the honor of leading that organization. The Armstrong team with a new and capacious gymnasium in which to practice will make a strong bid for championship honors in the coming season. P. S. A. L. elementary school boys in Washington have been tossing the sphere about at the various city playgrounds all summer, and in many backyards a paper ball with dimensions of a basketball and an old barrel hoop are affording practice to youthful aspirants. A red-hot series is predicted in the struggle for division and city honors in the light and heavyweight classes. Club teams representing the government department are forming a league, and the Y. M. C. A. court will be the battle ground for many a series of games. It is very likely that a strong Y. M. C. A. quint will invade the northern and eastern cities this year. The Dumbar Club of Baltimore is one of the most serviceable of athletic clubs. This organization not alone puts a team in the field of various sports, but spends most of its energies in developing athletics among the youth of the graded 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 loose construction cannot be given a rule that is so largely responsible in keeping schoolboy athletics among colored boys behind what it should be in a city where the colored population is proportionally so large. However, the efforts of the young men of the Dumbar Club may be the means of bringing Baltimore to the forefront. PARADE BANNERS FOR LODGES. The lack of newspaper publicity is all that prevents Philadelphia being considered a hot bed of basketball activity. The Stentonworth Athletic Club is the championship organization, with the Y. M. C. A., the Wissahickon Boys' Club, the "S" Club and other runners-up 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 Western 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 circuit. It might be well in this article to air a few points of discussion that might 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 city of New York. It seems to be the result of too many independent clubs running basketball almost entirely from their own points of view. Editor Hebbron of the A. A. U. Handbook deplores the tendency to run basketball teams independently, 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 therone solely for the good of the game minus the influence of competing clubs, a model situation it would be. Many colored schools were once in the habit of putting teams in warriors sport only when it was definitely assured that the team had a winning chance, with the result that a really good team was soild or never built up. It is a poor constructive policy to run along such lines and is typical of poor sportsmanship. It is questioned in my mind, whether good comes to the game when it is dependable upon a following dance to draw supporters, and I have always regretted more the seeming necessity to find a suitable hall for the game with adjoining saloon privileges, especially where school, Y. M. C. A. or college teams are playing. In this city a determined effort is to be made to run games without the attraction of a dance to follow in hope that basketball like football will be appreciated by all who attend from love for the game itself. In Washington last year we found it a paying policy to severely criticize lack of sportsmanship and perpetual contentions on the part of players in the news columns in the local players. It was seldom that such comment failed to bring about a better state of affairs. Lastly, it would be well for the game everywhere if impartial competent officials were always secured. With league organization it is possible to train officials, and when once a good man is gotten he should be amply paid for efficient service. I am sure that this will be a banner season in basketball with many bene ficial results secured to player, school college and club.

When Coach Davis called the first practice, twenty-nine candidates took the field, including many of the old stars among whom were Scruggs, Perkins and Brooks, who played on the famous team that defeated Summer High, from St. Louis, Profs. Cameron and Washington resigned the head of athletics at the close of the 1910 season, and football was abolished last year. This year the whole student body has expressed great desire for football and they have engaged a staff of coaches. One of the fastest teams that has ever represented the Cherry and White will be on the field. The line is heavy and unusually fast. The average weight from tackle to tackle is about 165 pounds. All the candidates are showing up better and it will be hard for Coach Davis to select an eleven. The boys deserve the heavy support from all the citizens and fandom because they are all the city's youth. It is Nashville represented by Nashville's boys. Captain James Perkins will have his boys out every afternoon at their grounds, corner Fifth avenue, North, and Jackson street. The Globe calls the attention of its thousands of readers to the advertisement of J. C. Johnson, room 4 Steger Building. Mr. Johnson and his Lung vitae" are doing much good for the sufferers from asthma and consumption of Nashville. The writer is conversant with many remarkable cures effected. Read the affadavit appearing in another column of this paper. Such testimony almost sounds like the voice of those from the tombs, the evidence of men snatched from the very jaws of death, and it is evidence that cannot be gainsaid. Here is a new era dawning upon a new hope illumining the horizon of the hitherto hopeless, the greatest boon that humanity can hold in closest embrace. To speak of Mr. Johnson as a public benefactor is but employing a stereotyped form of speech; he is a savior and deserves to be ranked the greatest man of this or any other age. What is the discovery of the North or South pole, no matter how considered in reference to science, in comparison to the discovery of Mr. Johnson? Nothing. To him suffering humanity will turn as the world has turned toward the sacred emblem of the holy cross; to him will saved and rescued humanity pour out a continued libation of praise and thanks and posterity will enshrine his name in the halls of fame along side those who have labored for and conferred inestimable blessings upon mankind.

Under the management of Mr. W. H. Shackleford, superintendent, and the Sunday-School Board a massmeeting was held with the parents and adults as special guests. To arouse enthusiasm and encourage the work of the Sunday-school was the object. The lessons of the past quarter were ably reviewed by Dr. Miller, Misses Murrell, Claybrooks and Scotch while excellent music was furnished by the choir. Prof. Bryant delivered an interesting discourse in the form of an appeal to the parents for better support of the work. Dr. Roman, in his characteristic entertaining manner, closed the meeting with an excellent address. There was a large crowd—old and young—and every one enjoyed the services. LADIES' AID SOCIETY. The Ladies' Aid and Missionary Society of the First Baptist Church, Eighth avenue, North, met in the church Monday afternoon at the uswell attended and much business wasual hour with Mrs. W. O.

After the regular business, Mrs. W. C. Lewis, of Jefferson street was introduced by the president. Mrs. Lewis, told the Society many things to encourage them in their work; how it inspires others to work when they see their neighbors busily engaged lending the helping hand. The Society was beautifully entertained by Mrs. J. C. McCauley in the Lecture Room of the church. The Society will meet Monday, October 7, at the usual hour in the church. GOVERNOR, PATTERSON OPENS CAMPAIGN. (Continued from Page 1.) other building which was added to that institution. When the reign of law and order was threatened in Obton County and other parts of Tennessee I promptly called out the military and effectually suppressed the fast spreading spirit of mob violence. Many other needful measures were advocated, among them a law creating the office of State Auditor one requiring the deposits of the State to draw interest, an employers' liability act and a law preventing free transportation and issuance of passes by railroads and other transportation companies. My very best efforts were given to bringing about educational reforms, and these have been far-reaching and enduring. I urged a complete change in our school laws—proposing to the Legislature a substitution of the county board for the old director system. This measure was bitterly fought, but I stood firm for what I thought was the better judgment of the school men of the State, and the result was that the cumbersome and wasteful system, under which we had labored for so many years, was completely revolutionized, and when the bill became a law, more real reforms were brought about and more genuine good accomplished than all of the so-called moral agitations which have embroiled our State for the past four years. While my critics were railing at me this work was being done; and every barefoot boy and girl in Tennessee, and every other child who must get its education in our public schools, has received the benefits and will continue to receive them in the years to come. The educational plan, however, was not complete until Normal schools were established to prepare young men and women for the great calling of teachers. So an act was passed empowering counties and municipalities to make donations of land and money to build these schools, and the result was that the Board of Education received more than a million dollars in bonds and real estate; and three great Normal schools were established for the education of one each in Johnson City, Murfrees A. W. A. W. STARNES A. W. Starnes, M. W. G. M. of the Free and Accepted Ancient York Masons, left Monday for the National Grand Lodge which convened at Oransburg, S. C., last Tuesday. He will be absent about two weeks. He will meet during his stay some of the most prominent men of his craft from every state in the Union. The National Grand Lodge meets triennially. The public will be pleased to know that the forty-second session of the Most Worshipful Prince Hall Lodge of the Free and Accepted Ancient York Masons has just come to a close. The personnel of the delegates in attendance was indeed high. Much important legislation was enacted. The financial condition of the order was reported to be in an excellent condition. --- Mary Steward, who resides at 108 Fifth Avenue, North, and works for Mrs Eula Campbell, who lives at 111 Seventh Avenue, North says: "Just two months ago today I began to use LUNG VITA. I was in a bad condition; I was having hemorrhages almost daily, I was taking a 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 work since. I feel as well as I ever did in my life. I have never had another hemorrhage since I began using this medicine. I hardly know how to thank J. C. Johnson enough for what he has done for me. When I began the use of LUNG VITA I weighed 115. I now weigh 135. Anyone who doubts this statement can see me any day at 111 Seventh avenue, North [Signed] MARY STEWARD." "State of Tennessee, Davidson County." "Personally appeared before me, R.

The report shows that the great white plague is far in the lead of other diseases in the death rate. During this 3,242 people perished from this dread disease. boro and Memphis, and one for the colored teachers in Nashville. These have all been built and dedicated to the great cause of education, and are today instructing young men and women how to teach the youth of Tennessee; and I should want no more noble monuments to my memory than this service my position enabled me to render the State and humanity. Ignoring the important public service I have rendered, every effort and ingenuity has been employed to poison the public mind; and my pardon record, for which I should have received the unstinted praise of the Christian men and women of Tennessee, was seized upon as furnishing ground for attack by those who could not use me, and whose ideas of government and questionable political methods I was forced to combat. My countrymen, I have made mistakes; 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 benefit. From my study of the criminal law, long before I was Governor, I came to the conclusion that its administration was too often uncertain, that our system of punishments was a cruel relief of barbarous days and unworthy the civilization of a Christian people. When I was clothed with the power I made a firm resolve to relieve those, wherever I could, who had been abandoned by the world. So I went among the prisoners in the penitentiary and at the mines, talked with them, found out their conditions and got from them a history of their cases. Many of these I found appealing and piteous objects of humanity, sick and disabled, without hope or a friend on earth who could aid them; and I could not steel my heart to their cries for mercy. I would never let an immature boy, white or black remain in prison; and I thank God that I gave them all their only chance for redemption. There were others convicted of trivial offenses or violations of the misdemeanor laws, upon whom heavy fines and jail sentences were imposed altogether disproportionate to their offenses; and when I remembered that, in nearly every such instance these were poor and ignorant people, sometimes with large and helpless families who would be the sufferers, and when I thought how many thou ```markdown ``` A.

It is easy for those who sit in their homes, surrounded by the comforts of life, with freedom to come and go, to suspect and heap meledictions upon the man who is helping fallen humanity at the sacrifice of his own ease. But, my friends, at last in the world, where the best of us are not all good nor the worst of us all bad, it is much safer to err on the side of mercy than to err on the side that men call justice.

I come before you as a Democratic candidate for the United State Senate, for the long term beginning on the 4th of March, and my candidacy is subject to the will of the people, to be expressed in a preferential primary to be held on the fifth day of November, next. The field has been open, and the office of United States Senator is one that may well fill the measure of any man's ambition. I announced as a candidate and two other gentlemen also entered the primary. I asked for no favors, only a fair deal, and an honest expression of the people's will. My competitors have withdrawn and I am left without opposition, and if I am declared the nominee on October 1, as the primary plan provides 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 been held. If I should not be your choice, no man will do more to see the will of the people properly recorded; and, if I am selected, my best efforts and whatever ability I may possess may be given to the service of my State and country. In times past the South has not received her proportional share of improvements of a public character, nor has she been sufficiently self-assertive in making her demands for just recognition. We need extensions of the Rural Free Delivery service, more and better public buildings, and enough money appropriated, in a continuous and definite way, to open the Cumberland and Tennessee rivers to navigation the year round. If 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 commerce, and the inexhaustible stores of timber and mineral wealth bounding their shores on either side—now lying dormant and unexplored—would have been developed and entered into the trade markets of the world. Then, too, the Government owes the duty of the Mississippi River which it can no longer neglect. Rising in the farthest North, it traverses the continent, it receives all the waters from the Rocky Mountains on the West and the Allelenges on the East. The flood through which the lowlands have passed, on both sides of the great river, from Cairo to the Gulf, were almost indescribable. Ruin and havoc followed the fearful rush of waters and the richest portions of the United States were at their mercy. These great areas of land must be protected and reclaimed, for they are capable of supporting not only an enormous population, but of restoring to the Government a thousandfold more than the cost of their erdemption. In the steady and complex march of modern civilization our republic is brought into daily closer communion with the world powers, and questions of international importance will more and more arise, calling for the highest qualities of statesmanship for solution. Our guardianship of Cuba, our acquisition of the Philippines, problems growing out of the building of the great isthmian canal, have given a new direction to American activities and brought new duties and responsibilities. These conditions, whether we want them or not, have forced our country from its place of isolation, and we must be ready for any emergency which may arise.
