BISHOP STEWART OF C. M. E. CHURCH SUSPENDED.
Charged With Irregularities in Accounts—Meeting Held in Birmingham Early in October—Christian Index Publishes Decision of Committee — Matter Will Go to General Conference in 1914.
That the recent suspension of Bishop G. W. Stewart, of the C. M. E. Church, was upon the demand of three hundred laymen of the church is the information that has come to the Globe recently from a most reliable source. It is said the lay members went in a body and demanded his suspension, and that they made it clear that such action must be taken at once. The report of the findings of the investigating committee, taken from the official organ of the C. M. E. Church as follows:
Bishop Stewart Suspended.
Theirgood Temple, Birmingham, Ala., Oct. 9, 1912.—At 10 a.m. m. religious services were conducted by Bishop M. F. Jamison. Rev. R. M. McKenzie was elected secretary. The following charge was read by the President, Bishop M. F. Jamison, to the committee of investigation, as follows: "Bishop G. W. Stewart, Presiding Bishop of the Seventh Episcopal District and Treasurer of Miles Memorial College, is hereby alleged to have misapplied school funds for the year 1910, 1911 and 1912."
Committee: Revs. W. J. Turner, L. D. Fletcher and J. H. Howard. The following ministers were appointed by the Presiding Bishop as members of the committee: Revs. J. T. Speed, R. B. Martin, L. W. Whitmore, M. Lewis, F. M. McPherson, H. C. Frederick, F. P. Wheelis R. A. Jones, J. H. Hughes, R. F. Fulwood, J. B. Battles and R. L. Langford, Revs. S. J. Elliot and F. A. Bailey were the council for the defendant. Revs. W. M. Crain and W. T. Turner were the councilmen for the Church.
For two days Brother L. B. Wallace was kept at the blackboard adding and subtracting amounts of moneys claimed to have passed through the hands of the Bishop, and the amounts claimed by the Bishop to have been paid or sent or ordered sent by him to their rightful places—$4,000, and some over in all was claimed by the council for the Church to have passed through the hands of the Bishop, including general and special mission, Epworth League, Education, General and Church Funds. After carefully examining the checks, receipts, etc., the investigating committee found $43,01.82 or thereabouts accounted for by the Bishop; unaccounted for, $10,68.18. About 8 o'clock p. m. on Thursday, Oct. 10th, 1912, Bishop M. F. Jamison charged the committee and dismissed them to go and make up their verdict. After they had been out the following verdict: "We, the Committee of investigation in the case of Bishop George W. Stewart, after carefully examining checks, receipts and documents of the Bishop, find the charges on the indictment sustained; we therefore, recommend a trial of the Bishop necessary." Signed—J. T. Speed, R. Martin, L. W. Whitmore, M. Lewis, F. McPherson, R. C. Frederick, F. P. Wheellis, R. A. Jones, J. H. Hughes, R. F. Fulwood, J. B. Battles and R. L. Langford. Bishop M. F. Jamison then declared Bishop George W. Stewart suspended until the sliding of the General Conference, 1914. Thus ended the First Chapter—The Investigation—of one of the most epigramatic or dramatic scenes we have ever with nessed or read of in the circles of the Methodisms of the world. This news will come as a shock to many of the members of our Church. Now let us say to the members, however much we may regret the affair and wish it had been otherwise—twelve ministers of our Church have rendered their decision. This is final in the investigation so far as the law of the Church is concerned. Suppose we cease from further discussing of the matter through the public press and wait for the final hearing and verdict of the Trial Committee of the General Conference, 1914.—From Christian Index Oct. 17, 1912.
NAME IN LEIBER'S CODE.
The new Supplement just issued to the Leibers Standard Telegraph Code of the world which has just reached this city, gives the National Baptist Publishing Board a name and a place in the Directory they claim the most perfect cipher code in the world said to surpass the Western Union used by more different countries outside of the United States. This advance step of a local firm is calculated to bring more attention to Nashville from the old world. Their address in the code is "Baptist Tennesse," which in the code cipher is equivalent to "National Baptist Publishing Board, 522 Second avenue, North Nashville, Tenn." Another record is thus established.
BUSINESS AND PROFESSIONAL MEN HIGHLY COMPLIMENTED.
Great Crowds Throng the Street from Noon Till Closing Hour—Electric Display a Marvel of Beauty—Every Concern Gave Souvenirs—Flags, Flowers and Bunting Galore—Free Show at Majestic.
Thursday of last week the business and professional men on Cedar street, between Fourth and Fifth avenue, held their first annual celebration in a most creditable way. The business places and professional offices were profusely decorated with flags and bunting. From Fourth avenue to Fifth was wrapped in the grand old colors of the nation. The celebration began at 12 o'clock and continued until 11 o'clock at night. As the shades of evening approached the electric button was touched and the treet from side to side was illuminated in red, white and blue. The electric display was as beautiful as has ever been seen in the city. The celebration was a revelation not only to the Negroes of Nashville, but to all of the people in the city.
It was not dreamed that Negroes were as patriotic as was evidenced by this display. Unheralded, without the beating of drums and a deal of hilarity, a group of business and professional men got together and decided that they, with their meager means, would show to the world that they were interested in this city. The like has never been witnessed heretofore, in fact, it has never been attempted. The Negro business men have been content to allow the white business men to advertise Nashville. They have had fairs, carnivals and other entailments, but in every case an admission fee was charged to help defy the expenses. These business and professional men got together and took ahe money out of their pockets to defray the expenses and gave to the people a free exhibition. In every place souvenirs were given of various descriptions that the people who visited the various business establishments could take home with them as mementoes.
Starting from Fourth avenue, the first building reached was the Brown Building, the upper floor of which is occupied by professional men. This building was elaborately decorated inside and out. The next building was the People's Savings Bank & Trust Company's building. Here was to be found the Bank, the Star Realty & Investment Company, the Negro Board of Trade, and several professional men. Next was the Liner Tonsorial Parlors, conducted by M. Dock Liner, the popular tonsorialist and teacher of Terpsichore. The next was the New Majestic Laundry, Lecture Bureau and Employment Agency, conducted by Prof. W. G. Hynes. Then the Capital City Barber Shop owned by Mr. W. F. Robertson, which was neatly decorated in an appropriate and unique style, then the J. Ralston Kenan Printing, Publishing and Binding establishment, which was running in full blast, each visitor being given a souvenir air right from the press. The A. N. Johnson Undertaking establishment was lighted from cellar to garret Here was the finest display of funeral supplies ever exhibited in Nashville by Negroes. D. Wesley Crutcher's Gent's Furnishings and Tailoring shop pre
MR. R. L. MAYFIELD WILL SPEAK
AT PULASKI SATURDAY.
Special to the Globe.
Pulaski, Tenn., Oct. 30—It has just been announced that Mr. R. L. Mayfield, of Nashville, will speak here Saturday night. Mr. Mayfield will discuss the principles of Democracy. He invites all out to hear him. Mr. Mayfield believes that all voters ought to be willing to listen to both sides of a question, and for this reason ne asks the Negro voters of Pulaski and Giles County to come out and learn the truth that they may be better prepared to conscientiously cast their ballots.
BISHOP I. B. SCOTT WILL PREACH

Bishop Scott will soon sail for Africa to take up his work there for this guardennium.

In the party were Mrs. Watkins, Mrs. York, Mrs. Baily and Mrs. Hart. The trip through the country was highly enjoyed and the party was royally entrained at Mt. Pleasant by Mrs. White.
NASHVILLE, TENN., FRIDAY NOVEMBER 1, 1912.
Disfranchise the Negro Says Independent Chieftain
In Address at Franklin, Col. Enloe Accuses Ex-Governor Patterson of Breaking Pledge
Negroes Have Only Iron Spoons to Eat With
In Franklin Monday to an audience of several hundred, Col. B. A. Enloe, Railroad Commissioner, who is running on the Independent-Fusion-Hoopercat ticket to succeed himself, laid bare the plans and intentions of the fusion crowd. After scoring Ex-Gov. Patterson and Ex-Gov. McMillin, and taking to himself and his crowd every good virtue. Mr. Enloe recited what he calls an indictment delivered against Ex-Gov. Patterson, at Hartsville, Tenn. on the 28th day of June, 1910. Among the long list of pledges that he charges Ex-Gov. Patterson with having broken he mentions three that refer specifically to the Negroes or Tennessee.
The first pledge was as follows: "Pledge to favor a constitutional amendment to keep the Negro out of politics." Col. Enloe says that Ex-Gov. Patterson broke this pledge. It is well-known to the citizens of Tennessee and of the country that if such a pledge was made, it has not been carried out, and it is not believed that Gov. Patterson made any such pledge; but if he did the people will applaud him for having the courage to break it.
The second indictment recited by Mr. Enloe was that Gov. Patterson took ninety per cent of the Negroes out of the Republican party and brought them into the Democratic party to establish Patterson supremacy instead of white supremacy. The third thrust made at the black man was that Gov. Patterson called out the regulars, including the colored troops, to suppress the traitors.
This address is made on the eve of the election. It is not known why Col. Enloe waited so late in the campaign to make this lengthy speech. The indictments made by him, if true, it seems, should have been made earlier in this campaign. Every other candidate made his opening speech in the beginning. But this "apostle of justice" has waited until the last moment to spring this great document, and in it he has wrapped up three daggers for the Negro. He shows that there is lurking around in the breasts of the independents and fusionist-lilly-whites a deep-rooted hatred for the black man, and after all the greatest indictment they have against Gov. Patterson and the regular democrats is because they would not legislate the Negro out of politics. This is the same crowd that many Negroes are following around and landing to the skies as the apostles of civil righteousness and the defenders of the rights of the Negro. But the
Recently a party of sightseers visited the State Penitentiary. They were sown through in the usual way, from one department to the other. It was near meal time and the tables had been prepared. The guide showed the party the dining-rooms. On one side it was noticed that at each plate there was a knife, fork and spoon and on the other tables there was nothing but a
THE TENNESSEE BURIAL BOARD OF MOSAIC TEMPLAS OF AMERMEETS IN THIS CITY.
The Burail Bordr Department of Mosaic Templars of America, for the jurisdiction of Tennessee met at the office of the department, Saturday morning, Oct. 26, 1912. Aside from the members of the Board, there were present other members of the order from the other states, viz: W. M. Alexander, National Grand Master, L. L Powell, Grand Master of Ala., W. H. McConico, National Auditor, Little Rock, Ark.
The Grand Master of Tennessee, J. W. Harris and the, Secretary-Treasurer, W. S. Thompson reported a collection for the fund of $1128 from October 1 to date. This is reported as very encouraging, since this is the initial collection of this department and only three-fifths of the Temples and Chambers had reported. By Nov. 15, the time for closing the collection will be about $1600.
The National Grand Master stated that the national office in Little Rock, Ark. reports the amount on hand to the credit of the Endowment Department, ending Sept. 30, 1912 is $15000.
people are not deceived. They know the independents well. They know that there are good men in that faction, but they know that the controlling men among the independents and fusionists are the bitterest enemies the Negroes have in Tennessee.
The ninety per cent, racket was hatched up by the Hon. Tillman when he was so roundly thrashed by Gov. Patterson. He declared that ninety per cent. of the Negroes voted against him and defeated him. It will be remembered that in that memorable campaign the Negro was not taken into consideration by any party. The republican party, led by that stalwart East Tennesseean, Senator, Newell Sanders, did not have time to bother with the colored brother. He was too busy building up that famous lilly-white party. Doubtless he had a vision of the future that came to be a reality in 1910, when by bringing about a split in the democratic party he was able to push his man into the Govenor's chair, and later himself into the United States Senate. It was in that year that the Negroes grew tired of the republican hypocrisy and without any invitation decided that they would vote the democratic ticket and administer an everlasting rebuke to the republicans. From that time until now the number of Negroes who support the democratic party has increased until a great army of the leading Negroes in the state are lined up behind the democratic candidate for governor.
Since Col. Enloe delivered his speech in Franklin thousands of Negroes throughout the state have changed their opinion of the fusionist crowd, and Tuesday, November 5th, will cast their votes not only for Governor McMillin, but for the whole regular democratic state ticket.
Col. Enloe is willing to disfranchise every Negro in Tennessee, not excepting those who are running over the state making speeches here and there trying to persuade the Negroes to vote for Gov. Hooper and the Hoopercats. The Hoopercrat Negroes are down and out. They have hollowed Hooper so loud and long that they are ashamed at this late day to change front. They are trying to muster up courage enough to continue telling the people to vote for the republican fusionists. Everywhere you look you can see a group of Hooper Negroes with their heads down like chickens with the cholera. "They cannot face their people now and tell them to vote the republican ticket since Col. Enloe has raised the curtain and exposed the tricks.
big iron spoon. Upon inquiry it was learned that the white convicts have knives, forks and spoons, but that Negro prisoners only have a big iron spoon and their fingers. This is the condition that is found in the state prison, under a fusion administration. When McMillin is elected this will be changed and all convicts, white and black, will be treated alike.
and not one death claim unpaid; that the order now operates in twenty six states and territories including Central America and the West India Islands, that the total number of lodges male and female is 1762, with membership of 330,170. The order although comparatively unknown in Nashville is now in its thirty-first year. In order to increase the membership in Nashville, a special dispensation has been granted to the two Temples and the three Chambers in this city to receive applicants for $2.00 each and grant the policies and medical examination free. Dr. S. S. Caruthers has been appointed the medical examiner and has the blanks for examination of any one male or female who may apply to him.
D. A. Hart, the master of Nashville Globe Temple No. 889 visited the meeting of the Board, and promised the aid of his Temple to secure 40 members by Dec. 1, 1912.
At the A. N. Johnson Hall, Saturday night a banquet was tended the distinguished visitors, and members of East Nashville Chamber, Clarion Chamber, Melntosh Chamber, Hermitage Temple and Nashville Globe Temple were in attendance. A number of candidates were initiated after the banquet and speaches were heard from the general officers.
$10,000 FOR DE TENTION HOME
HUMANE COMMISSION ASKS THIS AMOUNT FOR NEGROES.
Prays City Council to Make Appropriation—To Be in Budget for 1913
—Annual Report Submitted—Home for White and Colored to Be Located in the Suburbs—Mayor Howse's Recommendation.
Including in its recommendations an item of $20,000 for a detention home for white boys and girls, including infants, in the custody of the juvenile court and commission, and half as much for a colored institution of the same kind, the huncane commission presented to the city council Thursday night its estimated budget for 1912. The total was $33,980. The budget went to the finance committee.
The commission's report was as follows:
"We submit herewith for your consideration and approval statement covering the appropriation which this commission asks and recommends shall be included in the 1913 budget prepared by your honorable body.
The items hereinafter set out are necessary in the opinion of this commission for the proper maintenance and conduct of this department of your city government:
G. W. Brown, probation officer,
salary ..... J. J. Killen, Juvenile court
judge, salary .....
"His honor, Mayor Howse, has recommended a board of charities to be established and maintained as a department of the municipal government, this that all the people of Nashville should contribute to the expense of maintaining those people instead of as now leaving them dependent upon the charity of a limited number of the property owners and citizens of Nashville, operating through a limited number of the good women and men of Nashville. This commission is of the opinion that in the establishment of these homes we should provide ample space not only for the present, but for many years ahead in the life of the city.
"We trust that your honorable body will unanimously join the commission in this necessary step for the proper care, education and maintenance of those of our city children herein above mentioned, and as well also for those dependent upon the charity of the city. In submitting this report and budget, we are pleased to state that we have fully conferred with his honor, Mayor Hilary E. Howe, in regard to these matters, and are gratified to say that he readily and heartily approves of the plans and recommendation herein contained of this commission.

McMILLIN WILL WIN IN A WALK
FROM EVERY PART OF STATE
COMES ASSISTANCE.
Fusionist Have Stage Fright—Many Schemes Undertaken—Regulars Standing Like Stonewall—Increased their Speed While Chieftan was in Distress. All Leading Negro Will Vote.
Throughout the different sections of the state sentiment has strengthened the belief that Gov. McMillin's plurality this year will be larger than any governor has received in Tennessee for many years. From every quarter news comes in daily that the voters are flocking to the old hero. The more the independents talk, the more voters they drive from them. Their tricks and schemes are being unearthed, and the people are sick and tired of their hypocracy. Every day a deal is exposed. Lilly-white republicans attempting to trade with independent democrats. This thing has gone on until it appears that Gov. Hooper and the Hoopercaters have lost sight of all that is of interest to the people of Tennessee and are bent only upon winning the election.
Furthermore, old trucks that have been kept a secret for two years are being brought to light and the record of the present administration, as it is held up to the public gaze, becomes as thin as tissue paper. The regulars have shelled the Woods until the forest is cleared of all imaginary things and the real records are exposed to the people. It is evident that all is over now but the shouting. On Tuesday morning the regular democrats of Tennessee will be joined by the sober thinking and patriotic Negroes of this state, and the great host will march to the polls and settle in an old-fashioned land-slide way, the fight that has been kept for several months.
Negroes everywhere are proud of the part they will be able to play again setting Tennessee in the route of progress. The sentiment is the same from Memphis to Eristol, and East Tenn., where Negroes have always voted solidly for the republican party, will register a great break never before heard of in this state. It is noticeable that this change has come about in the minds of substantial citizens, farmers, school-teachers, and the men who earn their bread by the sweat of their brows at daily toil, and who are anxious that this grand old state may again take her place in the ranks of progress, which can only be done by putting out of power the fusionist crowd. Tuesday. November 5th will tell the tale. Not that there is any doubt now as to what the result will be, but the tale to be told is how large the majority will be.
Gov. McMillin was compelled to re-leguish his vigorous campaigning owing to the illness and finally the death of his only son, but the brave heroes of Tennessee have not allowed the battle to cease, and they have worked more determinedly since their leader has been out of the fight than at any time previous. Their hearts went out to him in deepest sympathy in his hours of distress, for other fathers realized just how he loved his son, and how his heart is burdened. They know that he is anxious that the interests of the state be taken care of; and they know that had not the illness of his son interfered with him he would have touched many points where it is impossible for him to reach now. But the valliant-hearted men of Tennessee will march to the polls on the 5th day of November and prove to the world that the grand old Volunteer State stands for progress and for the uplift of all her people, though humble they may be, so long as they are honest and industrious.

The board had quite a harmonious and business-like session. They disposed of business in a way that would be surprising to the most technical critics, especially so when the able counsel and experience of our late Dr. R. F. Boyd. Our Worthy Counselor, Mrs. Sanders showed to be commended for the way she so well filled the position, this being her first time to preside over the board and it is surprising to us to know how well she has prepared herself and has made such an excellent start in the discharging of the most responsible duties which have fallen upon her. In our opinion the order will continue in its prosperous condition and success which it has already achieved. Rev. M. C. Skillen has been elected pastor of a church in Decatur. Rev. J. M.

New Orleans, La. Oct. 30—After having remained in the United States several weeks, during which time they covered a great portion of the South, Rev. R. H. Thorbourne and his wife, Mrs. Bessie. Martin-Thorbourne, sailed from here Saturday on the steamship Parisianna for Panama. They go by way of Port Limon, Costa Rica, and will probably spend one or two days there as the guests of Rev. W. H. Forde. They are due to reach Panama City about the middle of next week. They came here Monday morning from points in Alabama. Mass meetings at the Austerlitz and the Progressive Baptist Churches, under the auspices of the Baptist ministers of this city, have proved to be the most successful demonstrations ever given to any religious workers. The entire city appeared to be interested in the success of the meetings. It was the one occasion that almost obliterated denominational lines in so much as interest was concerned in the affair. Accompanying these two missionaries, who appeared to a great advantage was the Secretary of the Home Mission Board, Rev. R. H. Boyd D. D., who has been with them on their short itinerary, taking in West Tennessee, Alabama and Louisiana Such ministers as Revs. D. E. Sims J. L. Burill, Jackson Acox, A. Hubs and others made it possible, by their co-operation and by furnishing their individual congregations, for the two mass-meetings to have attained the proportions that hey did.

In an address delivered by Col. B. A. Enloe at Franklin, last Monday, the "cloven foot" of the Independents and illly-white Republicans of Tennessee was plainly exposed. All through this campaig some of the leading Negroes of Tennessee have labored night and day to impress the Negro voters of this state that their salvation was wrapped up in the Republican party. It has been argued that this party was the only one in the state that stood for civic righteousness, and that every damnable scheme to rob the Negro of his franchise was wrapped up in the regular Democratic party.
The Globe has contended all along that this claim was erroneous and misleading, but that there was a viper lurking in the dark. It has been known for several years that the white republicans of Tennessee harbored a desire to build up in the state a white man's party. The idea was conceived that if the Negro could be thrust out of politics a Republican party could be built up stronger than the regular Democratic party. The republicans have made no attempt to conceal their belief, and some of them have boldly declared that the Negro voter was a millstone around their necks. But the Negroes could not be made believe that such a spirit existed in the hearts of the white republicans. So they clung to the old party. They were kicked and buff fetted around, but they would not let go. Every time their white republican friends would say, "Come on boys, let's thrash the democrats," they would line up and go into the fight; and every time, if the republican were defeated, here and there a voice would be heard to declare that it was due to the presence of the Negro. That he was a menace to the welfare of the state and ought to be put out of politics. Despite these declarations year in and year out, the Negroes, and especially the leaders, would find some excuse for remaining with the "grand old party."
In 1910 an alliance was made between the lily-white republicans and dissatisfied democrats whereby they agreed to throw their strength together, and if they could win a victory they would divide the spoils. This agreement was brought about in view of the fact that in 1908 so many Negroes deserted the republican party and voted the straight democratic ticket. This was thought by the lily-white republicans to be the opportune time to throw the Negro overboard. So a contract was entered into between the lily-whites and disgruntled democrats. Victory was won, the results of which are well known to the people of the state. For two years these same factions have planned and schemed to continue their compact. It has been devised to use the Negro, if possible, to win another victory, and it was considered an opportune time, this being a National election year. It was thought that Negroes could not be persuaded to vote other than the republican ticket in a National campaign, but little has been said about it by the white republicans. The job has been turned over to a few leading Negroes and the state has been flooded with in flammatory literature, skillfully prepared by the National Republican Committee.
All of this has been done to deceive the Negro and hide from him the deep-seated schemes of the fusionists. But on the eve of the election, emboldened by what they believed to be success, the champion of fusionism, and the arch-enemy of the Negro, had the temerity to utter in Franklin three sentences that laid bare the "cloven foot" of the enemy. Col. Enloe chargea that Gov. Patterson promised to favor a constitutional amendment that

would put the Negro out of politics. He is honest enough, however, to admit that Gov. Paterson did not carry out that pledge. Tennessee Negroes cannot be made to believe that Gov. Patterson made any such pledge; but granting that he did, it must be admitted that if out of the greatness of his heart he had the courage not to carry out the pledge he must be recognized as a brave man with a just heart, and with the courage of his convictions. "It is a wise man that changes his mind; fools never change." The second indictment, that Gov. Patterson took "minesty per cent of the Negroes out of the republican party and put them in the democratic party," is not true.
When the Negro voters of Tennessee turned their backs on the republican party Gov. Patterson had no more knowledge of it than an unborn baby. No Negro approached him on the subject. No Negro approached any democrat in the state. They did not even hold a mass meeting among themselves and agree that they would support Gov. Patterson. But the Globe exposed the hypocrisy of the Sanders machine and the Negro men individually decided that they would no longer follow a party of hypocrites. And without any solicitation whatever they supported Gov. Patterson. This was not done because he had promised any favors, but because he had made a splendid governor of Tennessee. He had been the governor of all the people, fearlessly and courageously. When it appeared to him that a black man was being unjustly treated, as governor of the state he came to the rescue, and he has never asked him for his vote, but the Negro had sense enough to recognize a friend and to appreciate just treatment on the part of a governor. The truth of the matter is, illy-white republicans and the fusion democratis do want to put the Negro out of politics, and if the truth would be acknowledged, and all the secrets could be known, somewhere in a dark closet would be found such an agreement between the republicans and the fusion democratis; and if success should come to them in this campaign and they get control of both branches of the General Assembly, they will pass a constitutional amendment disfranchising all the Negro voters in the state.
The utterances of Col. Enloe should convince every Negro in Tennessee of the truth that their bitterest enemy is to be found in the republican party of the state. Every Negro voter should have the courage to put the stamp of disapproval upon this scheme to rob him of his rights. The National election does not enter into our state election. Tennessee will go democratize as it has always done. It makes no difference whether the Negroes vote for Taft, Roosevelt or Wilson. The matter that comes home to every Negro is the situation in Tennessee. Here is where we live and here is where we should be interested most. W cannot hope to have a good nation if we have bad states; and the exposure of the "cloven hoof" by Col. Enloe miking it clear beyond doubt that the rights of every Negro voter in Tennessee are in jeopardy, and that every Negro who votes, for Gov. Hooper and his allies will be voting to distranchise himself.
The suspension of Bishop G. W. Stewart of the C. M. E. Church is evidence that the laity are taking a deeper interest in church matters. Any man who is honored by the people owes to himself and to those who honored him a life that is above reproach.
Tuesday, November 5th, a battle of ballots will be waged. This is a battle that is more powerful than those fought with swords. It is the time when every man should exercise his best judgment. If Tennessee is in a prosperous condition every citizen who has the desire to can be happy and contented. Every man who has children to care for can find a job for which he will receive his wages. School houses will be multiplied and the opportunity to sell the products of the farm as a fair profit will be enjoyed.
When all is confusion and the progress of the state is retarded hard times strike the poor man first of all. The rich man can tide over these seasons of depression. But he who lives by his daily toll must be kept constantly engaged to keep the wolf from his door. The resources of Tennessee are unlimited. They are waiting to be developed. When peace and harmony prevail men can turn their attention to the development of the community. The rich are willing to invest their money in the establishment of new enterprises. Foreign capital seeks investments in the states where there is likelihood of a reasonable return.
All these things tend to promote the happiness of the common people. For this reason the man who earns his bread by the sweat of his brow, the skilled mechanic, the man with the pick, or on the farm—in fact, all—should look well to whom shall be pru

Battle of Ballots.
Mr. B. C. Bingham is a candidate for the State Senate from Eighteenth Senatorial District composed of the counties of Bedford, Coffee and Moore. He was born and reared in Bedford County, and has always been a friend to the law-abiding colored man. He solicits your vote and influence November 5th.
in charge of the administration of the affairs of the state.
It is evident that the men who constitute the regular democratic party in Tennessee are the progressive class. They are interested in everything that tends to the welfare of the state. They want to see Tennessee take her rank with other southern states in the development of her natural resources. They want to see the Negroes of Tennessee become industrious, prosperous farmers. They are willing that they own their farms and they will encourage them to do so. When the time comes for the establishment of permanent or movable experiment, stations in farming they will see to it that the Negro is not neglected. They are willing that he, too, learn to produce more from the soil than he now can. They are willing that every boy and girl in the state shall have a fair education to fit them for better citizenship. On the other hand the republicans and fusionists are concerned more about holding offices than they are about the development of the state.
Which of these factions will you support? You must decide this question Tuesday. If you have not paid your poll tax, do so to day; get ready to cast your ballot Tuesday morning, November 5th, for the regular democratic party. Start with the name of Gov. McMillin and vote the state ticket straight through. It will be better for the Negroes of Tennessee and for every citizen of the con-monwealth that the fusionist party be put out of power, and that the reins of government of this state be delivered to the regular old line democracy which constitutes Tennessee's most valiant men, who have the interests of the state at heart and the courage to do justly by all.
We observe in the Atlanta Independent that the Odd Fellows of Georgia will soon occupy their new building. Under the leadership of such a thoroughgoing chieftain as Ben, J. Davis great achievements come as a natural consequence.
The Detention Home
At the last meeting of the Board of Charities a recommendation was made to the City Council that the Budget for 1913 contain $30,000 for Detention Homes for colored and white. It is asked tsat ten thousand dollars be set aside for the purchase of a home for colored children and dependent men and women, and that twenty thousand dollars be set aside for whites.
This recommendation is one that is far-fetched. Nashville needs these institutions. As is set out in the recommendation, such institutions will place the burden of maintenance equally upon all, and furthermore, being institutions owned and conducted by the city, all money applied for their maintenance will be properly spent and all of the people can share alike in the benefits derived therefrom.
We wish to call the attention of the Negroes of Nashville to the fairness expressed in the recommendation. It is another evidence of the attitude of the white people toward the colored. Nashville and Tennessee are acknowledged to have a more friendly feeling existing between the races than is to be found in any other state. This claim has been made on several occasions by the Globe, and the recommendations, which will be found in another column, substantiate them. It is hoped that the City Council will grant the recommendations and it is believed they will have the approval of the Mayor, for it is learned that he favors the homes, and it is believed that the Council will concur in his approvals. Furthermore, it is believed that all of Nashville, irrespective of party factions, will agree that these institutions are needed and should be established and maintained by the city.
Business Men's Celebration.
Business Men's Celebration.
The Negro business men on Cedar street are to be congratulated upon the signal success of their first annual celebration. It was a history-making epoch in Nashville. It shows that the Negro business and professional men are awakening to the great possibilities of this city. It shows, further, that they realize as business and professional men a part of the responsibility for making Nashville bigger and better rests upon their shoulders. They are to be congratulated also for the manner in which they went about the affair. Too often Negroes, when they attempt such things, first go to the people and ask them to contribute toward the expenses and otherwise help them; but the Cedar street business and professional men were too courageous and too progressive to do
that. They took of their own means and bore the expenses and invited the people to come and enjoy the festivities.
This act stamps them as true business men. They were advertising their businesses, and from the advertisement they expect to gain profits. And since they are to be benefited by the display they realized that they had no right to ask the people to pay for a thing which was to directly benefit them. This should be a tesson to all of the Negro business and professional men of Nashville. And if this spirit is kept up it is believed that all will join the ranks and that when the second attempt is made the Negro business and professional men throughout the city will join heartily in making the celebration a bigger and greater success.
If the election were a few weeks off the "appeal" factory would have to work overtime. Every mail has thousands of appeals to the Negro voters of the country. Even Mr. Mingo Sanders has joined the force.
COMMUNICATION.
"Presidents of Negro Colleges."
Presidents of Negro College.
The Globe, in its last issue, contained a lengthy editorial under the above caption, using as its initial sentence the following: "Is there a Negro anywhere in this country who is capable of filling the position as president of Fisk University?" Without waiting for a reply, the Globe proceeds to discuss the subject, siding with the views expressed by the Fellowship Herald, a Negro journal, published in Chicago, to the effect that this question may readily be answered in the affirmative.
I wish to say that it all depends entirely upon the point of view. The Globe says: "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." In all seriousness and fairness, let us ask, by what course of reasoning does the Globe arrive at the conclusion that an institution owned by white people should be turned over into the hands of Negroes? If Negroes owned such a magnificent educational plant as Fisk University, would they turn it over into the hands of white people or be willing to put a white man in charge? The Herald says and is endorsed by the Globe: "There must be men of the Negro race qualified to fill these posts." That is doubtless true; but that is only one point of view. In order to see an object clearly or understand a subject, it must be considered from every conceivable angle.
Fisk University was founded by white men; it has been fostered by men of that race for nearly half a century; that race has sacrificed some of the best men and women of their day and generation to build up a great school in the Southland. The Negroes and not the whites have been the beneficiaries and not the benefactors. They have not, and could not, pay in dollars and cents, value received for what they, as a race, have been benezed by these good people.
It is true that the work of the famous Jubilee Singers will forever redound to the honor of that band of choristers, who contributed towards the erection of Jubilee Hall, but they were paid well for their services in more ways than might be mentioned here.
What claim has the Negro upon Fisk University? Nothing, more than the privilege of attending it.
Fisk University is owned and operated under the auctions of the Congregational Church through the American Missionary Association. They have schools established throughout the South, but with the shrewdness characteristic of the Yankee, they always know how to control them.
The Negro must learn how to differentiate between a Negro college, and a college for Negroes; how to discern thine-spun distinction between a "president of a Negro college" and a "president of a college for Negroes."
The number of Negro colleges or schools may easily be counted within the range of three figures, but the number of schools for Negroes is legion. Such institutions as Tuskegee, Normal, Fisk, Atlanta University, and the new State Normal in Nashville, are all schools for the education of Negroes, but none of that class belong to the race.
And be it remembered that when schools like Fisk University so outgrow the intentions of their founders as to put a Negro in complete charge, the sun will be standing still in the heavens, ducks will be flying with their backs downwards, and snakes will be holding high carnival on the icebergs in the arctic regions.
The Globe says. "There are men who still hold that it is yet too early to place a Negro at the head of Fisk University." No, it is not "too early," viewed from the standpoint of efficiency. A thousand times, no. But it is too early to think that it will ever be done as long as white men own it; and there is no talk, that we know of, of them selling out.
Schools like Fisk, aside from the charitable feature, which places them among the elemeosinary institutions, have a business side. We might with equal propriety ask why a Negro might not finally be made president of one of the white banks, because the bank has colored patrons; or why a white merchant, doing business in a purely Negro settlement, may not be asked to surrender his business to a Negro. As long as Roger Williams University was owned by the whites, they

kept a white president in charge. Were it not for the fact that, after the old plant was destroyed by fire, and the property (which was owned by the whites) sold out, and the Negro Baptists taken the work up on their own responsibility, Roger Williams would have a white president to day. In other words, the white man sold out his interest in Roger Williams, and there was nothing else to do but put a Negro in as president, or have no more Roger Williams.
When the time comes that Negroes will have at least a controlling interest in Fisk University, then we may begin to talk about a Negro president for that institution. But as long as conditions remain) as they are, it is idle to waste time talking, or waste paper writing about such a thing.
The only way to create Negro presidents of colleges or presidents of anything else in this country, is to create places for them ourselves. That is the crux.

LOWELL. MASS.
Lowell, Mass., is a permanent convention of cotton mills and shoe factories, assembled around the Merrinac river, which puts in overtime every day running them.
For many centuries the Merrinac was allowed to tumble over the rocks unharnessed. In 1822, however, a company built a dam and Lowell began to grow. It is now famous for its factories which stretch along the river loking at night like four and five story torchlight processes. Lowell makes each year enough cotton cloth to tie a 100-foot wide sash around the earth with a bow 500 miles across. It also makes 25,000 shoes a day, a train load of socks and enough patent medicine to cure America or drown it.

Lowell has 119,000 people, most of whom trace their ancestry back to Europe in the first generation via the steerage. Its name is the most American thing about it except the businesslike way in which it makes millionaires. French newspapers in Lowell print baseball scores in French while the city boasts eleven miles of power canals and calls itself the Venice of America. This is Kinder than it would be to call Venice the Lowell of Italy.
Lowell is not at all exciting in its business section. It has no skyscrapers and business is not congested except on Saturday night. Lowell has one of the biggest Saturday nights in the country. It costs less to live in Lowell but it does anywhere else in America, which is lucky, because few f its people carry their wages home in wheelbarrows. The city has many parks and plenty of farm land on all sides, but most of its workmen still live in tenements and when the tariff went up recently the plumbing in the said tenements didn't improve any. Lowell has some fine old New England families, but not enough to influence its voting. For the rest it sounds on holidays like the Babel building trades union out for a holiday, and the storekeeper in Lowell who wants to succeed must be able to talk 150 words a minute with his hands and arms.
CANNED TOMATOES.
Scald the tomatoes and remove the skins. Drain off all juice that flows from the vegetables while skimming them. Put the tomatoes into the preserving kettle, season with salt, and simmer steadily for twenty minutes.

BRILLIANT YOUNG WOMAN

Mrs. Manyey Hoffman-Greer, died Thursday evening, October 24th at 6:20 o'clock at the home of her mother, Mrs. Kate Hoffman, 1805 Heffernan St. Mrs. Greer was the only daughter of the late Rev. R. T.

to sing for the convention which was to be held there last summer. She organized a chorus of 350 voices which under her directorship won the applause of both home and foreign nations. It was during this stay of the summer months in Mississippi that her system was filled with malaria and the latter part of July she was compelled to take her bed. After three weeks of illness at Mound Eayou she decided to come home, arriving here on August 5th. From the time of her arrival she was given special medical attention, but continually grew worse until the end came. Funeral services were conducted by Dr. C. H. Clark and Rev. A. O. Kennedy, Saturday morning, October 26, at the Mt. Olive Baptist Church of which she was a member. She leaves a devoted mother, two sweet little children and a host of friends to mourn their loss. W.

ABOLISHES COLLATION AT MEETINGS.
Because of insufficient time to look after business and at the same time give thirty minutes' time to the study of the lesson of the following Sunday, Galeda Class No. 16, by unanimous vote, abolished the collation that has been in vogue at the monthly meetings since its organization and served notice that, at stated intervals a social meeting would be announced. The president of the class, Miss Mary L. Clark, in approving this action, declared that the class would show signs of improvement. At the same meeting the new Galeda pins were adopted and given outfl which is taken to mean that seventy-five gold-plated Galeda pins will be worn if every member of the class takes advantage of the opportunity to get one. Mrs. Henry Price, of Eleventh avenue, North, entertained the class on Wndnesday night. It was by far one of the largest meetings.
MISSIONARY MORK DISCUSSED BY MRS. L. LANDERS.
At the recent meeting of missionary women a paper was read by Mrs. L. Landers that met the hearty approval of every one present. Mrs. Landers discussed this all-important subject in a practical and common-sense way as follows:
"Members of the Ladies' Aid Society:
"As soon as we hear of missionary work, we think of home and foreign missions, both fields of which the 'harvest truly is ripe, but the laborers are few.' Let us talk on home missions
"In the heart of every Christian woman ideals have always found a welcome and a home. The character of her ideals has depended largely upon the time and place in which she was living. In the earlier days their scope never extended beyond the bounds of her own individuality and her own home, but as years passed, and women began to take wider views of their duty, they wean to include within the reach of their responsibility their neighbor and their neighbor's children. They came to the conclusion that ignorance is the fruitful mother of degradation, and that no nation whose God is not the Lord can long survive or serve the highest needs of the world. So the host of Christian women in this new land have united to declare, "Our land shall become the home of intelligence and righteousness." From such union Sunday-schools and every day schools were organized; the first part played by the women in the home missionary work.
At the close of the war, what did we as a race know about home-making, about economizing, about nursing the sick properly, about training our children to become thrifty wives and housekeepers? Practically nothing. By a united effort a handful of missionary women, with God as their leader, undertook the task of teaching home-making, among our mothers. They were taught to sew, to cook properly, to economize, to nurse and train their children to become thrifty wives and housekeepers. How well they have succeeded can best be told by the hundreds of thousands of homes they keep.
If they in those dark days taught that much, what ought we now be doing in the way of missionary work? We have a large field here at home, not mentioning Africa and the islands of the sea. Carlyle says: "Do the duty that lies nearest to the. The second duty will already become clearer." So it is with us.
The schools have been organized and built; are we helping to fill them? Poorly clad and equally poorly fed children are running in our streets daily who ought to be in school. Some parents are not able to send them, others care not. Are we giving anything to get these children in school and to keep them in school? Can we not as a missionary society, in name, be a missionary society in deeds? Christ once said, "He who giveth to the poor lendeth to the Lord," and how much we all would delight to be in His debt.
There are invalids in our communities. Do we visit them? Do we cheer them either by word or deeds? Do we make an effort to impress upon them the importance of living right? Ah! my missionary sisters, there is lots of work for us to do, and home missionary work at that. The Catholics say, "Give me your child from infancy until he is seven years of age, and we have them." Why can't we say the same? The trouble is with us we don't get the child at all, and then of course it is hard work to get the grown-ups. The little ragged urchin on the streets would, gladly come to us if we show a willingness to have him come.
Missionary work, to my mind, is not giving to those who do not need it, but it is giving to and working for those who stand in need of it.
The effort of our society lately to donate to one or two of our schools is a most noble undertaking, and we feel that the angels of bright glory smiled upon us for it. Would God that we would do more of just, such work and do it often. We need not be afraid to venture upon such deeds, for one writer has truthfully said, "If we acknowledge God in all our ways, he has promised safely to direct our steps, and in our experience we shall find the promise fulfilled."
Let us then be up and doing,
With a heart for any fate,
Still achieving, still pursuing,
Learn to labor and to wait.
MISS ALMA PETERS DEAD.
Shocking was the news of the death of Miss Alma Peters, the daughter of Dr. J. L. Peters, which occurred in Virginia, their home, last week. Dr. Peters had only recently returned from the bedside of the deceased, being assured by the physician that her turn for the better during his stay meant a complete restoration of health within the course of time. But Wednesday morning a telegram came from Staunton, which is the home of Dr. Peters, announcing that she had passed away, and that it would be impossible to hold the remains for his

arrival. Miss Alma Peters was fifteen years of age, an accomplished musician and a splendid singer. In the spring she had finished a commercial course in stenography, typewriting and bookkeeping. Although young, she had been looked upon as one of the accomplished young people of the Old Dominion.
BAPTISTS CLOSE SESSION.
Jackson, Tem.—Tennessee was equally divided in the official plums handed around at the Baptist State Convention, which has just closed its sessions in this city. East Tennessee, with Knoxville as the coveted spot and A. D. Hurt the candidate, captured the presidency after a thorough yet very close contest, defeating West Tennessee, which was strongly divided. Middle Tennessee put forth her candidate from Nashville for secretaryship and was an easy winner. Dr. A. M. Townsend being elected, while West Tennessee held for the treasurership, being located at Memphis, giving it to
The institutions located in the various sections of the state shared an equal division, proportioned according to popularity, attendance and seniority in the educational field. All in all it was found at the close of the sessions that Tennessee had enjoyed the most prosperous session of a Baptist gathering ever held. Many new propositions and plans were enter. One of the greatest of these was a plan to have the numerous associations throughout the state collect their monies throughout the year for the State Convention proper, reporting to the annual session each October. The movement that was on foot to change the sessions of the convention from October back to July failed on account of insufficient majority, but the plan to make the Roger Williams Educational Campaign state-wide was the one stroke that turned into electricity and captured the entire convention. The reports of the officers and the general gathering of the Baptists throughout the state with the mass-meeting at the County Court House on Sunday afternoon, notwithstanding many of the leading ministers and laymen had gone, was the closing of a convention that marked a successful annual session of the good Baptist brethren.
ATLANTA BAPISTT COLLEGE
AFTER FISK'S SCALP
Special to the Globe.
Atlanta, Ga. Oct. 28—"We are going to Tennessee to invade the capital city and to bring back the scalps of Fisk University dangling from our football belts," is the declaration of the husky, stalwart football team of Atlanta Baptist College, this city. It was said to-day that although the team was a green on, having only one of last year's players on it, they have been coached by Prof. Archer so well that those who have watched the practices and games declare that any team that attempts to stop their onward rushes will be hurled back with the same force. It is a known fact in this city and recognized throughout the South, that the school on the hill has furnished a champion team for the past five or six years. Many of the old stars are out, but the spirit of play-ball and the ferociousness of the football records established by individuals that have played on the team have been handed down to these husky boys.
The record made by the team last year was an enviable one. They played seven of the best colleges in the South. They lost one game, but they went through the season with the distinction of not having their goal line crossed by any team. The one game lost was the one played with Tuskegee, goals being kicked from the field. "We will show Fisk a thing or two as we did before when they came here confident of victory," said Coach Archer on Monday morning in discussing the coming event. He also gave out the following schedule: College vs. Morris Brown, Nov. 2. Atlanta Baptist College vs. Atlanta University, Nov. 9. Atlanta Baptist College vs. Clark University, Nov. 16.
Atlanta Baptist College vs. Tuskegee. Nov. 23.
Atlanta Baptist College vs. Fisk, Nov. 24.
Prominent Atlantans are contemplating joining the party. There will be President and Mrs. Hope, Dr. and Mrs. C. H. Johnson, Mr. Ben J. Davis, Mr. Wm. Driskell, Dr. Nash, and possibly a dozen other enthusiastic foot-
Memphis, Tenn.
ball supporters. A special car from Atlanta is being arranged for and it would not be surprising if two coaches of enthusiastic football supporters did not invade the Athens of the South and establish a new record for Atlanta.
FELLOWSHIP MEETING Y. M. C. A.
Smashing record in point of enthusiasm, interest and attendance was the general expression heard on all sides concerning Sunday's meeting of the Y. M. C. A. at the Majestic Theatre. The meeting had been thoroughly advertised as a fellowship meeting it was a day set apart where men would meet men and where they might know each other better and where Christian young men who had found Christ as a living Savior would meet their less fortunate comrades and offer to show them the way. At the same time the meeting was not to be diverted from the regular Young Men's Christian Association channel, in other wrods, using the words of Secretary Sanders, "A new beginning of well established plans in the Y. M. C. A. work was the object of Sundays meeting." When the chairman of the Y. M. C. A., Mr. Hardy Kleith, called the meeting to order, about four hundred, sprinkled here and there with a few ladies, sang "All Hall the Power of Jesus Name." A well directed program had been outlined for the occasion. Addresses were to have been delivered by H. A. Boyd Wm. Crawford, Dr. S. S. Caruthers T. B. Hardiman, E. N. Green and Dr. A. M. Townsend, but Dr. C. V. Roman, who was also one of the men on for an address announced that these addresses and the gentlemen who had been assigned would all gladly surrender their part of the program to giving way to Bishop W. R. Lambuth who had just returned from a trip of twelve months in Africa. Hence, with the rendition of several selections by the Meharry Quartetto and the introduction of Rev. N. D. Shamberger, D. D., of North Carolina, and Rev. R. H. Thorbourne, of the Republic of Panama, the entire evening was given to the address of Bishop Lambuth, who spoke for over an hour, entertaining, uplifting and inspiring his audience on what he had seen and had to undergo while in Central Africa. A very large map was used by the Bishopp in explaining the geographical locations of the principal portion of Africa where his church, The Methodist Episcopal church South, and its protege, the Colored Methodist Episcopal Church, were endeavoring to establish their missionary work. He paid a high tribute to Prof. Hawkins, recently of Payne College in Georgia. Others speakers were Rev. J. E. McCullough, Secretary of the Inter-Church College, Rev. A. B. Clement of Galloway Memorial Hospital The evening wound up with the presentation to the public by the Y. M. C. A. of nine men who will have charge of the Y. M. C. A. work among Negroes in the city of Nashville. They are Hardy Keith, chairman, A. M. Townsend, H. A. Boyd, Wm. Crawford, S. S. Caruthers, A. N. Johnson, T. B. Hardiman, E. N. Green and C. V. Romna-It it already well known that Mr. W. N. Sanders, the secretary, is devoting all his time to the uplifting of the men in the organization. This committee has already elected an executive committee consisting of C. V. Roman, H. A. Boyd and A. N. Johnson, who are to support Secretary Sanders and act with him in all emergency cases.
MISS WHERRY RETURNS TO ST.
LOUIS
Miss Helen Wherry returned to St. Louis, Mo., last Thursday evening after having spent quite two months in the city the guest of Mr. and Mrs. A. E. Tittle and sisters of 528 Lischey Ave. Miss Wherry was formerly a resident of this city, but removed to St. Louis about two years ago. She has a host of friends here who were glad to welcome her back to her old home. She reports quite a pleasant stay.
A DISTINGUISH VISITOR.
The Nashville Globe office had a very distinguished visitor Tuesday of this weekin the person of Mrs. M. L. Imes of Beloit, Ala.
Mrs. Imes was formerly Miss Mabel Lewis, one of the original Jubilee singers, and a graduate of Fisk University. She is en route to Tuskegee, where she will be the guest of her nephew, the Rev. Mr. Imes. She will be in the city for a week the guest of Mrs. Preston Taylor.

NASHVILLE GLOBE, FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 1, 1912
FOR PREPARES TO BID CITY
ADIEU.
Rev, 4. H. Jones, the bride of East
Nashville and popular pastor of Lane
Tabernacle C. M. E. Church for six
years, is every day shaking hands
with friends and bidding them adieu.
REV. I. H. JONES.
Rev. Jones is known all over Nashville as the great revival preacher. He is not only a preacher but a pastor. It was Rev. I. H. Jones who undertook and succeeded in building the auditorium of Lane Tabernacle. Rev. Jones will preach his last sermon in Nashville on
SOUTH PITTSBURG NOTES.
OUR Motto: "No Freedom Without Education" Our town is being thoroughly arraised from an educational point of view. The site of the 14th District school is that beautiful terrace where the county school (white) now stands. For the ensuing school year this building will be thoroughly renovated and put in first class condition now stands it is a three room building with dook room and Library. Nature has provided a level tract of land that is very suitable for a ball ground and also the gigantic oak, ash and maple trees are as huge umbrellas on the children for play under the hot season. This is one of the most beautiful sites for school purposes in this Marion County. Mrs. Hawkins is intensely interested and the children have carried their enthusiasm into everyone. It is only a question of time when the 14th District and two or three other schools will be consolidated and this ideal site will give the community a graded school of the first magnitude. Prof. F. C. Green of the city school deserves special mention in the manly way he has cooperated with Mrs. Hawkins in her effort for education. The city school and the 14th District held a union rhetorical Friday last week which was greatly enjoyed by both pupils and teachers. This was held at the 14th District school house Another similar meeting will be held at the city school building Friday afternoon when Mrs. Hawkins will accompany the student body of her school to the city school building. These meetings are great incentives to the children of this community to attend school it seems and other good objects are being touched. Educational Rally day Sunday Nov. 10th at 2 p.m. M. Bethel Baptist Church Rev. Wm. Simmons pastor. Four prizes are to be given. The Wilson-Baunagartner prize for the married ladies The Oklahoma prize for the young men or boys. The Sartian Drug Co. prizes to the girls or unmarried ladies and a prize for the men all are offered to the girl, boy, woman or man who raises the highest amount of money. Halloween parties are being given this week by the A. M. E. and M. E. churches Thursday and Saturday and Saturday nights respectively, at the Pythian Hall and Old Fellows Hall. A most enjoyable time is anticipated. The A. M. E. congregation is preparing to build a parsonage on their new church lot. A worthy effort is being put forth by the members. Mrs. W. L.

THE NEGRO QUESTION
The following paragraph was taken from an article in the Virginia Pilot, issue of September 15, from the pen of Charles Stelzle. In the article Mr. Stelzle makes a survey of the facts concerning the national Negro question, and there are many truths expressed in the same. However we quote the following paragraph: "The fact that the Negro is dying in such large numbers of tuberculosis and other still more frightful diseases is, of course, due to his ignorance and to other reasons for which he is largely responsible, but we cannot forget that it is also to be charged to the fact that he is compelled to live in the worst sections of our towns and cities, often without drainage or sewerage or garbage service, without water within a reasonable distance, and scarcely any of the sanitary conditions in houses or yard or street which whites consider an absolute necessity. We drive the worst forms of immorality into the Negro quarters and then curse the Negro because of his moral weakness. We subject him to the severest test of our city life—physical, moral and political—and then cynically declare that the "nigger" is no good anyway. Let's give him a square deal—a men's chance. Neither race hatred nor mawkish sentimentality will settle this delicate question. The South cannot settle it alone, and the North cannot do the work for the South. The North and the South, the city and the country, must tackle the thing together, for this is a national problem."
All the Negro needs is a square deal, a fair chance. Some of those who harp on the Negro death rate and his moral status do not stop once to consider the existing conditions by which he is surrounded. The Negro does considerably well considering his disadvantages compared with those of his white neighbors. If the whites are anxious to solve the race problem they should do more to alleviate the conditions mentioned by Mr. Stezle and stop laying all the blame at the door of the Negro for his short-comings—The Journal and Guide.
We have had but few presidential years like the present one. There has usually been some financial depression to accentuate the arguments o f the respective parties. But the best crops in the history of the country have taken the question of food and prosperity out of the hands of the politicians. This is as it should be. The prosperity of the country really depends upon the farms and the allied industries and government is good or bed in proportion as it protect these. It does seem that the farmers of the country have been receiving some special pledge of safety or protection as the results of the year's crop increase indicate that the grains have exceeded by many million bushels the output of any previous year. In case of tobacco alone the figures indicate that there will be an increase in the year's returns of more than 72,000,000 pounds. Even the prospect of a large tobacco crop has not, however driven down the price as all the tobacco raisers who have sold any tobacco are wearing the smile of satisfaction. The same may turn out that good farming has more to do with the country's prosperity than the election of president.
The Negro democrats of Virginia, funding that they could not get recognition in the regular democratic organization, met some time ago and endorsed Roosevelt. It is possible that this means that they are going to

vote for the colonel, it cannot mean that they are going to have any influence over the colored vote in the state of Virginia. The same retusal of recognition which took place in Virginia has taken place uniformly in all the party counsels of that party. The democrats of the country have said plainly that the Negro is not wanted. Not only has the party acted in this wise but has never been known to advocate a single principle which was known to be of benefit to the Negro race. Yet we have the spectacle of a leading Negro of the country advising the Negro to vote the democratic ticket and one with a record of many years of devoted service to his people being recommended by Ben Tilmau as one of the democratic orators. There may be a point somewhere but the trouble is to find it.—Durham Reformer.
