NASHVILLE GLOBE. BAPTISTS DEMO DR. MORE Re-elected by Aclamation Over Delegates and Visitors at Open stration at Gre BAPTISTS DEMANDS DR. MORRIS' SERVICES Amid thundering applause and waving of handkerchiefs Dr. E. C. Morris was re-elected Wednesday afternoon under a suspension of the rules, president of the National Baptist Convention the twentieth consecutive time. It was right after the president had finished his annual address, in which he fired the hearts of the delegates with an appeal for equal justice in the land. It was a masterful address, and coming as it did upon the event of the emancipation celebration brought cheer after cheer from the great multitude. Ten thousand Negros, led by Dr. N. H. Pius and the National Baptist Publishing Board band, sang "Steal Away to Jesus" at the opening of the opening of the thirty-third annual session of the National Baptist Convention this morning in Ryman's Auditorium. The convention brings to Nashville fully ten thousand Negroes from all parts of the country. Dr. E. C. Morris, of Heelna, Ark., who has been President for the past nineteen years, called the convention to order at 10:30 o'clock. He was delighted with the large crowd present. He said: "This meeting of the National Bap DR. E. DR. E. C. MORRIS DR. E. C. MORRIS. tist. Convention came to Nashville by accident, but the joke which Dr. Boyd tried to play on the committee was taken seriously, and the vote resulted in Nashville being chosen as the place. Few of us knew of the ability of the colored people here to provide for such a great meeting, and fewer still knew what there was a Negro man in this community who owned one of the finest parks in the South, and that he is one of the wealthiest Negroes in the country. "The National Baptist Convention owes a special debt of gratitude to Rev. Preston Taylor for the use of that park, which he so generously tendered without money and without price. "The Rev. Mr. Taylor is not a Missionary Baptist, but he is closely allied to us by doctrine as well as by practice, that we count him one of us. He is truly a good and great man and is an example of what can be accomplished by a level-headed, common sense, energetic Negro man here in the South." He introduced the Rev. G. B. Taylor, of Nashville, chairman of the local committee, who presided during the delivery of the addresses of welcome. "Thank God Almighty I'm Free at Last" was sung and the entire audience stood chipping hands and many who shouted "Amen" were heard through the large audience. Rev. A. L. Patterson, of Tennessee, who has been preaching for the past seventy years, conducted the opening divine service, assisted by Rev. Geo. H. Dwelly, of Georgia. "Next President of the United States" brought forth an enthusiastic ovation to Governor Hooper this morning in Ryman Auditorium when he addressed the Negro Baptists. He was introduced by Dr. E. W. D. Isaac, of the National B. Y. P. U. Board. Dr. Isaac said: "My friends, it has been conceded that the South belongs to the Baptists and Democrats and we, like them, believe they have a d'vine right to split. The Democrats had While some may white and black HAGEVILLE OFFERS OPPORTUNITY VOL. VIII. an extremity which was the Negro's opportunity. Then they needed a strong man and they found an industrious, scholarly young man who had the strictest regard for law and order and an unprecedented reign of temperance. The Negro didn't get any credit for it—it does no good to think that the Negro is on the side of the lawless. There are good on both sides, Benjamin W. Hooper, Governor of Tennessee." Governor Hooper said: "Mr. President and Members of the Convention—I came here this morning not for the purpose of delivering an address, for I have not the time, but for the purpose of extending to you in hasty words a greeting of Welcome for Tennessee and all her people. "I expected to see a great convention, but I confess that I am astonished to find such a great body of earnest men and women, aged and young. "I take a peculiar pleasure in addressing this convention, because I believe in the same gospel faith that brings you here today. I have been a member of the Baptist church ever since I was a boy of fifteen years here we will all look alike up there." 1 "I wouldn't undertake to say that I've lived up to the doctrine of the Baptist Church of all the time for part of the time I have practiced the Methodist doctrine of falling from grace, and I expect if the truth were known some of you have done the same. "Sometimes it is said the Negro race is a religious race, and that is true, and thank God for that sentence, and if any race needs God to look after them the Negro race has needed it. "It is fortunate for you that you are a religious people. It means that your impulses are good and your ambitions true. Often carried astray, but, on the whole, I believe in a man who is moved by good emotions more than the cold, phlegmatic man having no imotions and impulses. "I heard of a man sitting in a revival meeting as cold as an iron wedge. One said to him: 'Don't you feel that I've love Jesus?' and he said, 'I've nothing against him.' That is far from religion; but with a man of that sort and the Negro, give me the latter. "Another thing of emotion: It prevents them from being swept away by every strange man that comes to the land. Upon the great religious faith of this nation depends the great success of whites and Negroes. That is the taking of the Bible for what it sys. "We Baptists have not accepted the higher critics in their belief of the Bible. "The Baptist Church has stood for religious liberty, and we stand together, white and black, just for what the Bible says. "I welcome you on behalf of the good citizens, white and colored, of this city. "There are good and bad in all. "I tell you the mistake of the sensational white press: They make the mistake of measuring the Negro race of this country by the worst speci- to serve my race and denomination, and I rejoice to know that I have lived to see this convention grow from Continued on Page Eight. NASHVILLE, TENN., FRIDAY SEPTEMBER 19, 1913. HILARY HOWSE RE-ELECTED LYLE ANDREWS IS SUCCESSFUL Run-Off Between Elliott and Stainback Sept. 25---Present Mayor Defeats Both Judge Meeks and Noah W. Cooper by Mejority of Nearly 800 Andrews Defeats the Field for Commissioner of Finance and Revenue—Municipal Election Comes Off in All City Wards without Any Serious Trouble Mayor Howse and His Friends Jubilant. Mayor Howse and Lyle Andrews fell into office under the commission form of government in Thursday's election by a majority of 775 and 965, respectively; and Bob Elliot cither fell just short or just received enough votes to put him into office, too. The unofficial figures tabulated by The Democrat show that Elliot just missed a majority over all the candidates by less than two hundred votes. His supporters claim that he won. As soon as the vote began to come in from the first few words it could be plainly seen that Howse would lead the ticket, and within two hours PUBLIC SCHOOL BEGIN WORK THOUSAND OF CHILDREN CROWD IN OPENING DAY.

HOWE. after all the boxes had been closed it was certain that he would not need a run-off. The first reports for Lyle Andrews were not as encouraging, but he gained strength steadily and he closed with the largest majority of any of the three races. Judge Meeks ran a very much weaker race than had been anticipated Cooper, on the other hand, ran a strong race right from the start and finished with a greater vote than Dr. W. C. Gillespie was given two years ago when he ran against Howse. As Howse received a few more votes than he did two years ago, the Meeks and Eakin vote was practically the strength of the new vote that participated in the election. The total vote of each candidate in all the races was as follows: Mayor's Race Howse. 7,548 Cooper. 5,241 Meeks. 1,433 Eakin. 99 Howse majority 775 Commissioner of Revenue and Finance Andrews. 7,294 Worke. 3,287 Cohn. 2,902 Wilec. 140 Anderws' majority 965 Total vote cast 13,623 Commissioner of Waterworks, work- house and Street Cleaning.

A large number of people were out, and it was particularly noticeable that the young men were buying lots very rapidly. This was probably due to the fact that Mr. Bransford hs announced that he will not open any more colored subdivisions. The property sold Monday night is very desirable property, and the young men are takin advantage of the opportunity to buy a lot that will be worth something to them in the future. Muscle by the North Nashville band and ice cream and lemonade furnished free by the realty company added to the pleasantness of the evening. PUBLIC SCHOOL BEGIN WORK THOUSAND OF CHILDREN CROWD IN OPENING DAY. With Smiling Countences They Greet Their Teachers—Outlook for Good Year most Promising—People Proud of Public Schools Free Text Books Highly Appreciated—Tribute to Prof. With bright smiling countenances and happy beating hearts the youth of the city responded to the ringing of the school bells last Monday morning calling them in from a long vacation, where books were forgotten, while they chased the butterfly, rolled the hoops, frequented the parks and play grounds with out a thought of care in the school room, they are now a happy set, ready to take up the next year's wrestle with teacher and problems. Some, however, are disappointed because the teacher of their choice could not follow them to the next higher grade, others sorry to see their former school mates leave them for other buildings, but all should be made to remember that all is well that ends well. Those who were left in their grades last year can profit by remembering the mistake and start out with a determination to make up the lost ground this year. All of Nashville is proud of the system of city schools. The advantages offered by the schools here can not be surpassed in the South. The recently adopted feature of furnishing free text books is proving a blessing to all. So many are relieved of a strain that justified pride placed on them. All mothers appreciate this advantage and are showing a willingness to healthily co-operate with the teachers in having the pupils take the very best care of the city property in their hands, especially the free text books. As a result of the compulsory educational law the indications point to a much increased attendance this scholastic year. The board of education in contemplation of this increased attendance has provided an annex for Clifton, Ashcraft and Lawrence schools. Many of the teachers have enjoyed pleasurable and profitable vacations and are back at their places full of vigor for another years work. Others have felt the hand of affliction, while into some of their homes the grim monster has entered and claimed some loved one. The sympathy of all parents and teachers go out for such unfortunities ones in their distresses. According to the call of the superintendent, the teachers assembled at 11:30 o'clock last Saturday morning to hear the assignments. Superintendent Keys, in his characteristic happy vein welcomed the teachers back to service, and hoped that this year's work should be the most prosperous in the history of the schools. He impressed with great emphasis the close relation between the home life and the school life, and the necessity of correlating home duties with school duties. He also encouraged the teachers associations, noting the helpfulness of such organizations in the management of the schools. The superintendent referred very feelingly to Prof. W. S. Thompson, who on account of illness, must be from his post of duty for a term at least. We hope for him a speedy recovery that he might be spared for many more years of valuable service. Among the changes announced were the following: Miss Laura Coleman from Knowles to Ashcraft; Miss Emma J. Cockrill from Knowles to Lawrence; Prof. Battle from Lawrence to Knowles; Prof. W. F. Reynolds from Hadley to Napier; Principal Battle from Napier to Belleview; Principal Watson from Belleview to Napier. MRS. WM. KEY RETURNS HOME. The home of Mrs. W. G. Cartwright was a scene of dazzling beauty last Friday evening when Misses Willie Burkeen, Joanna McAdams and Elain Nixon entertained a limited number of friends. Miss Corna Davidson standing behind amount of ferns and cut-flowers, dispensed punch to the guests as they arrived. Dancing and games were enjoyed until a late hour when the guests were ushered into the artistic dining room where a delicious ice-course was served. WOMEN HOLDING GREAT MEETING AT SPRUCE ST.

FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 19, 1913. MEMBER NATIONAL NEGRO PRESS ASSOCIATION The Election. Our first primary under the commission form of government has been held, and as usual the Negro voters are charged with having thrusted upon the city an undesirable candidate for Mayor. Nobody is surprised that one of the daily papers, namely, the Nashville Banner, should make such a statement. But the Negroes who voted for Mr. Howse have no apologies to make for it. Aside from having been their friend they consider him the best man for the place. Not that the other men are not good men, but that it is the duty of every citizen to support the man for public trust who in their judgment will serve the people best. The Globe stood alone in this fight. Every daily paper and the Clarion thrown in for good measure, opposed the present Mayor, but that did not deter us from doing what we believed to be right. We would not be frightened even by Mr. Willie Crawford, who stood up in the Lyric Theatre and denounced the Globe, and dared the people to read it. It will be remembered that this same gentleman was at one time on the Nashville Fire Department, but talked himself out of a job, and from the returns it seems that he has talked himself still further from that job, or any other that the city may have to offer, not excepting the position of Truant Officer, the position so generally sought by the reformers. This is the third time a majority of the voters of this city have said by their ballots that they have confidence in Mr. Howse; that they can trust the affairs of the city in his hands. But notwithstanding there are certain papers that persist in saying that these people do not know what they want and that only the hoodums and Negroes vote for him. But figures count, and the Globe is well satisfied to be on the majority side. We submit that some reforms are needed in this city, as in all other cities, and we believe that Mayor Howse will do all in his power to bring about these reforms. We are willing to trust him, with the aid of the majority, who put him in office, to remedy the evils that exist, and to keep up the tide of prosperity that Nashville has had under his previous and present administrations National Baptist Convention. The annual session of the National Baptist Convention that is the guest of this city this week has brought together perhaps the largest body of Negroes ever assembled in a religious gathering. It is estimated that over five thousand delegates were present at the opening session Wednesday morning, and others will be coming all the week, which makes it reasonable to calculate that more than 10,000 delegates and visitors will come to the city by the end of the week. This great outpouring of Baptists is probably due to the fact that added to the regular routine of business this year is the celebration of the emancipation of the slaves. But NASHVILLE GLOBE, FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 19, 1913. be that as it may, it is a great meeting, and represents the intelligence and progressiveness of the race in the fullest sense of the term. ```markdown ``` Great strides have been made by the Negro Baptists in this country. Fifty years ago they were poor and ignorant: they had no churches, no schools that they could call their own; no publishing houses; fifty years ago they were wandering from place to place, but not without a leader, for they were then as now trusting the God of the universe to guide them, and the evidences in Nashville show that the trust has been abundantly rewarded. Today as is shown by the reports of the president and secretaries of the various boards, the Negro Baptists have millions of dollars worth of church and school property; they, have men who can measure arms with the most learned of the world; in President Morris they have a leader the peer of any man in the country; in Dr. R. H. Boyd, the secretary of the National Baptist Publishing Board, have a business general who has the ability of a Wanamaker; and we could go on naming men in the denomination who have made their mark in the world until a book of many pages would be filled, but space will not permit. NEW AND INDEPENEDENT STREET CAR COMPANY. The NASHVILLE TRACTION COMPANY Ordinance upon which the citizens of Nashville are to vote September 25, 1913, guarantees more street cars and more modern street car service, reaching parts of the city not now adequately served. And to operate large, modern, easy riding cars of large seating capacity. To reduce car fares, namely, School-children, round trip for 5 cents, and to all citizens, six (6) fares for 25 cents. To give a cross-town car service, and transfers at any street corner, so that passengers can quickly and conveniently reach any part of the City without crowding in a station, and avoid delay, inconvenience and congestion. Suffice it to say that fifty years of freedom that the Negro Baptists of this country have enjoyed have made plain to the world that these people are a great people, and are doing their share in working out the destiny of a great race. Their great numbers make their task great, but under the leadership of great men and the guidance of Jehovah they are measuring up to the fullest requirement. And in addition to a regular ad valorem, to pay into the City Treasury for the general use of the city 3 per cent of the gross car, light and power receipts, for the purpose of helping to reduce your taxes. To make competition for furnishing lights and power. "THE NEGRO WOMAN IN BUSINESS. Washington, D. C., Sept. 18.—Last Saturday Madame C. J. Walker, of Indianapolis, Ind., the race's best-known hair cultist, concluded a ten days' visit to this city. The nation's capital has myriads of sojourners within its borders in the course of a year, but no woman has ever come to Washington and made a more profound impression in a short time than this wonderful business genius from the Hoosier metropolis. Like Caesar, "she came, she saw, she conquered." Reviving old acquaintanceships and making hosts of new ones, Madame Walker's itinerary in and about Washington was a veritable march of triumph. The Madame, in company with Miss Alice P. Kelley, her assistant, (formerly an instructor in the Eckstein Norton College, Cane Springs. THE NASHVILLE TRACTION COMPANY Ordinance grants a limited franchise which reverts to the City, so the City can then own and then operate its own street car system.

Ky.) and her private chauffeur, Mr. Homer West, motored all the way from Indianapolis to New York City, thence to Philadelphia, to attend the fourteenth annual session of the National Negro Business League, taking in later Atlantic City and the Pythian Encampment at Baltimore, and finally reaching the capital. The Madame uses a 60-horse power Cole, costing over $3,000, and the excellence of the machine is shown in the fact that it traveled all kinds of roads in all kinds of weather, without a breakdown or accident of any character. She is the soul of generosity with reference to this splendid car. It seats seven persons comfortably, and since leaving home she has invited all classes and conditions of humanity to share it with her taking clergymen, statesmen, journalists, society people, old folks and little children out for long and joyous rides through the city and country places, by night and by day. The car is naturally an "easy rider," and the smooth asphalt streets of Washington and the fine roads hereabout-made the trips a source of unalloyed pleasure. "The Negro Woman in Business" Mme. Walker is essentially a business woman, and no matter where she goes or on whatever errand, she talks business. She is an ardent believer in the philosophy of Dr. Booker T. Washington, and never loses an opportunity to emphasize to her sisters the importance of their Continued on Page Five. If so VOTE FOR THE NASHVILLE TRACTION COMPANY, on September 25, 1913. A $200,000.00 Bond has been executed, filed with, approved and accepted by the City Council and the Mayor, guaranteeing to build the road, and that it shall remain independent, and to carry out all the provisions of the Ordinance.

Now within a radius of 10 miles they own more than 10,000 acres in farms ranging from 25 to to help the people of the community. in which people lived when the School was started, have been re- placed by cottages with from two to five rooms, public school houses and church building, of which there none have been build.

Rain prevented the games Tuesday and Wednesday between the American Giants of Chicago, and the Capitol City League teams. Mr. Foster, manager, in order that the visitors might have a chance to see the games consented to remain in the city until today and play a doubleheader. The first game will be called at 2 o'clock. The great Rube Foster will pitch one of these games. Petway will do the receiving, which means there will be something goding all the time. GIANTS DEFEATED ALL-STARS BY 12 TO 1 SCORE. Despite the threatening condition of the weather a large crowd turned out at Athletic Park Monday afternoon to witness the initial game of the series between the All-Stars and the Capital City League and Rube Foster's American Giants, who are reputed to be the fastest team in the world. The game was called promptly at 3:30, amid cheers for the Giants as well as the home team, and from start to finish the game was interestingly watched by hundreds of admirers of the American pastime. Not that they expected the All-Stars to win, but more because of the pleasing spectacle presented by the actual playin gof the American Giants, were seen in action here for the first time since earning the reputation of being the fastest team in the game. Interest increased as the game proceeded, and notwithstanding the final score was 12 to 1 in favor of the Giants, all seemed pleased and expressed surprise that the All-Stars were able to score at all. It might have been otherwise had Petway's throw to second in the fourth inning gone lower, preventing Allison from going to second and Ferrell from scoring the only run of the game. A double steal was executed in the off-throw. Petway has a wonderful whip and the boys stood in awe of it, only a few venturing a chance to be cut down almost in their tracks. The game was won on infield work, at which the Giants are pastmasters. Gatewood's fadway was a puzzle for the boys, one declaring that he was tempted to strike twice at the same ball. Rube Foster will pitch in today's game. He is acknowledged to be the greatest curve artist in the game. All-Stars . . 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 0—1 6 5 Giants . . 6 0 1 3 0 2 0 0—12 14 3 It is rumored that a new athletic has made rapid stride as an amateur runner and he hopes to deafest the local champion of the South on the 27th of September although he is assured that it will be a contest from start to finish. His aim is to defeat A. Russell Stockard, Jr., the present holder of the South's (best) champion amateur long distant runner. Willis Williams as a local boy about six feet, ten inches in height and he is known for his swiftness on feet. Let Nashville wack up and see this take place. He believes he can win without a doubt.
