NASHVILLE, TENN., FRIDAY, MARCH 16, 1917.
As we go to press it seems that the nation-wide railroad strike that has been hanging fire since last September will take place on Saturday the 17th. The only thing that will stop the strike will be the intervention of President Woodrow Wilson. The chief executive of the nation seems to think at this time that there is no way in which he can stop a stop to the action of the "Big Four," as the four unions of railway employees are called. Nasville is a railroad center, and there are a number of Nero employees in the transportation departments of the Tennessee Central Railroad, the Louisville and Nasville Railroad and the Nashville, Chattanooga and St. Louis Railway. Some of these men live in the "Jock City" and some lodge here on their rovers. As the railroad brothecels have completely lingered the Neo in their organizations, it is a matter to conjecture as to how he will stand in this matter. Throughout the whole south there are a large number of Negro firemen who are competent to pull a throttle. As to

MILITARY TRAINING CAMP
FOR COLORED OFFICERS
Dr. J. E. Spingarn Explains His Reasons In a Futsle I
1. No one could make a greater mistake than to think that the Army wants colored men to join this camp. The Army officials want the camp to fall. They refuse to set a time or place until two hundred men apply because they know that this makes harder to recruit men for the camp. They merely want to be able to say that they have given the colored people a fair chance and the colored people refused to take advantage of the opportunity. The last thing the Army wants is to help colored men to become commissioned officers.
2. This project is intended to FIGHT segregation in the Army and not to help it. If there were enough men fit to be officers it would not be necessary; we could fight for a wide-over army with that material. But there are not enough men. The New York Negro reservation could not find recruits to fill the commission. Who war comes, we do not wish to be in the same position. We want to be able to save: Are are colored men fit to be officers, and you have got to be stop the game. The who think that a large number of officers could be obtained from the regular colored recruits simply show their importance of the Army and of the enormous amount of "paper work" an officer has to do. A good soldier is a man who has military training; a good officer is a man who has military training ability to lead and a GOOD EDUCATION. Few men who have not had at least a school education can ever hope to pass the written examination that is necessary to become an officer.
4. Some of my friends say that a few scattered colored men in a white
whether they will stick by their white beard or take his place, remains to be seen. Of course there are a few, a very few, Negro engineers in the whole south. It is highly probable that these been will stick to the Brotherhood of Locomotive Engineers and Firemen. Should these few men not stick by their organization they will be all of the benefits that are given by the organization, death, loss of hands, feet, eyes or fingers.
According to an authoritative source the strike will not become general on the first day. It will include the men in the freight service of a group of railroads or which several Southern railroads, including the Louisville and Nashville railroads are a part. On the second and third day these other groups will be called on. If before this the transportation managers of the railroads do not effect a compromise on the fourth day the men in all four departments will be called on strike.
It is hoped by Negro railroad employees that the matter will be settled without a strike. In the first
P
camp would be neglected and passed over, while colored men in a camp by themselves would all get a fair chance. I do not go quite as far as that. I regard the camp as a temporary expedient forced on us by circumstance, lasting only four weeks, but possibly able to alter the fate of the colored men. I have a special opportunity in a great crisis. Colored men must get officers' training as soon as possible, and there is no other way with the whole army against them.
5. The South does not want colored men to get any kind of military training, nothing frightens it more than the thought of back millions disciplined, organized and dangerously effective. That is why Vardaman is so bitterly opposed to universal military DR. J. T. PHILLIPS, L'eut. Gen. for Division B. training. That is why the General Staff of the Army has decided to exclude colored men from the training and has reduced its original estimate of 900,000 to 500,000 men. That is why the colored man who refuses to take advantage of this hardwon opportunity to get officers' training is biting off his own nose to spite his face.
6. If there is a real war, there will be conscription of all able-bodied men. All pretty talk about volunteering or not volunteering will have to cause; all men will have to go. The choice will no longer be between volunteering and not volunteering, but between CONSCRIPTION and REBELLIION. If conscription comes, will the leaders of the colored race help their Southern enemies by preaching treason and rebellion? Or will they face facts
place, they are only paid for the actual time they work and they cannot afford to lose the money. And then again they are between two opinions. They do not wish to go against men, some of them with whom they have been working for years under friendly conditions. In talking with a Globe man, a Negro employee who has been sixteen years with one company and who would not give his name for publication, said that he thinks the situation is more serious than it looks to the surface. He advises the Negro to work in jobseekers and not take the jobs controlled by the Big Four. He also says "If the Negro should accept a higher position at the behest of any railroad company officers, at the end of the trouble the companies would not back him up in case of trouble, but would use every means to put him back in his old position, if not to discharge him entirely." This strike will also effect several thousand Pullman porters who will be strained away from home. This will work a hardship on both the men and their families.
now, and prepare themselves to go as leaders and officers instead of follow March 14, 1917. (Seventy-two men and privates? have already applied.)
MT. NEBO RAPTIST CHURCH NOTES
The Sunday school of Mr. Nebo is making fine progress with the aid of their superintendent, Rev. E. L. Cleggett. The Metaka and Melaia Classes are now wearing the class buttons. Of course this has added much to their advancement. The church service Sunday was very well attended considering the inclement weather. The pastor, Rev. H. A. Alfred, delivered an excellent sermon at 11 a.m. also at 3 p. m. There are three weddings in the membership of our church last week, at which the pastor was kept very busy. The Girls Club is now planning their great work to begin in spring. The Home Mission Society met at Sister S. A.

CONGRESS SECREATY IN VIRGINIA
H. A. BOYD SPEAKER AT MASS MEETING
Norfolk, Va., March 12, 1917.—Twelve Sunday schools were visited in a whirlwind campaign here yesterday morning which was conducted under the auspices of the Sunday school forces of Greater Norfolk and which culminated in a Sunday school mass meeting at the celebrated Bute Street (First) Baptist Church at 1 p.m. Not in the history of this city has there been so much interest evidenced in the Sunday school work as was shown in this special campaign. The arrangements which had been made some time ago and which were under the personal direction of Revs. R. H. Bowling, D. D., and C. P. Madison, D. D., were carried out with the clock-line precision. The Congress secretary arrived in the city Saturday and during the afternoon and night of Saturday was entertained by a host of friend, including Dr. D. W. Byrd, the popular physician of Norfolk, and Dr. G. Hamon Roncke of Berkeley. On Sunday morning at 6 o'clock the program proper opened. There was an automobile placed at the disposal of the Congress secretary with a special committee consisting of Mrs. Madison and Bowling who once began their trip. This flying squadron visited the following Sunday schools and churches in their order named.
Jerusalem Baptist Sunday School; Dev. A. Hobbs pastor; John Dowtt, superintendent.
Boyd to visit Eastern North Carolina on an extended tour. Among those visiting ministers who were present were: Rev. J. J. Armstrong, Rev. J. W. Williams and Rev. J. A. Melone.
Petersburg, Va., March 14.—Rev Henry Allen Boyd, the secretary of the Sunday School Congress, who resided at Nashville, Tennessee, spent today in the city the guest of Prof. J. W. Candy at the Normal School Free and Dr. Mrs. J. B. Larden it was learned that Rev. Mr. Boyd was here on business in connection with a tour through Virginia. While he was not by Rev. Brown of the Cattlefield Baptist Church, Rev. Carter, the State Missouri, and Rev. T. J. King, the Secretary of the National Baptist Convention (unincorporated). The Rev. Mr. Boyd left this morning for Nashville.

They were enthusiastically received at each and every stop. Many more Sunday schools had kept their schools over and in waiting but on account of the condition of some of the streets it was impossible to reach them in time. At 3:00 o'clock in the afternoon the spacious auditorium and gallery of the Butte Street Church were a mass of eager humanity to hear the special address. At 3:30, the mammoth pipe organ that was recently installed at the cost of five thousand dollars sealed toth "Holy, Holy, Holy." After this, devotional exercises were conducted by the secretary of the Young Men's Christian Association, who acted as master of ceremonies. There were a few remarks made by the Rev. Dr. Bowling, the pastor of the church, who in turn introduced Mr. B. Young, the editor of the Norfolk Journal and Guide. He in turn introduced the Rev. Allen Boyd, who spoke for one hour who was applauded throughout. After the meeting adjourned it was impossible to get the congregation to disperse, they seeming to want more about the Sunday school work. Today, the Rev, Mr. Boyd is the town talk everywhere, and it is learned after the meeting that plans are already under way to have him make a return trip to Virginia and the Carolinas.
Elizabeth City, N. C. March 13, 1917. Last night was Sunday School night in this city. The celebration was set at the Olive Branch Baptist Church, pastored by the Rev. C. M. Cartwright. The guest of honour was the Rev. Henry Allen Boyd, of Nashville, Tennessee, who was here to deliver an address to the Sunday school forces, and although the Rev. Dr. Cartwright had been indisposed for the past week, a large audience was present to listen to the address, Rev. W. E. Sandlerlin opened the meeting, while Rev. J. C. Lassiter acted as master of ceremonies and introduced the speaker, who delighted the audience for more than an hour. At the conclusion of the services an invitation was extended the Rev. Mic are authority on Sunday School Methods. He has done, and is doing, untold good in his line of work, and his conducting these schools is filling a long-want felt in the preparation of our young people for Christian service.
On the evening of the graduating exercises, which will begin promptly at 3 o'clock, the principal address will be delivered by Dr. P. E. Burroughs, Secretary of Education, Baptist Sunday School Board, Southern Baptist Convention. There will also be other addresses, and special music for the occasion. Invitations have been sent to the various pastors and the r churches to be present. Rev. Mr. Sharp is hoping that they will avail themselves of the opportunity to be present and that it will serve as an incentive for higher and greater participation along the line of Sunday school endeavor. The public is invited to witness these exercises.

Petersburg, Va., March 14.—Rev. Henry Allen Boyd, the secretary of the Sunday School Congress, who resides at Nashville, Tennessee, spent today in the city the guest of Prof. J. W. Candy at the Normal School here and Dr. and Mrs. J. B. Barden. It was learned that Rev. Mr. Boyd was here on business in connection with a tour through Virginia. While here he was met by Rev. Brown of the Guildfield Baptist Church, Rev Carter, the State Missionary, and Rev. T. J. King, the Secretary of the National Baptist Convention (un incorporated). The Rev.

oil, was really one of the best ever seen in the city. The room was one of great beauty and too much praise can not be given to the directors for their effort to bring before the public true evidences of real art. Many of leading women of the city had exhibitions. Miss Carney of Fisk University had perhaps the oldest exhibit on the list. There was a confirmation robe, and made in Switzerland over two hundred years ago. Accompanying it were two or three beautiful lace veils over one hundred and fifty years old. The most unique exhibit was the candy flowers and log cabin. The owner of this exhibit is a culinary artist in the true sense of the word.
The china painting on exhibit was really one of the best ever seen in the city. For a number of years at various times, Mrs. Southall has given lessons to classes in painting. Her scholars have produced some almost perfect work. Mrs. Southall herself had on exhibition a chocolate set that was worth about forty dollars.
Mine Overton's exhibit of the latest in spring wear solicited much favorable comment. It is hoped by the public that these exhibits will be made annual affairs.
Rev J. W. Gardner is now in the city engaged in a series of meetings with Rev. Lewis and will be from his church for several days on account of the flood. His church now stands in water up to the side windows.

"I have been bothered with weak lungs for five years and had tried everything that I could think of or hear of, but got no permanent relief until I Lung-Vita," said Mr. Ike Johnson, who lives on Route 1, Neptune, Tenn. in a letter to us the other day. "I have used four bottles and the soreness is all gone out of my breast and lungs and I have gained twenty pounds. I feel good and want all who read this to know that I am cured. But I will let you judge yourself. Come out to see me and let my appearance tell the story." I knew just exactly what would be the end of every cold you catch, they would not be dangerous.

PUDDING PAN.
This two and one-half quart pan is fine for making puddings, baking breads and cakes. An excellent milk dish.
KETTLE COVER.
A kettle cover that is made of hard, thick aluminum lasts a lifetime. The ebonized knob is heat-proof and well riveted with an aluminum rivet that never rusts nor comes off.
PRESERVING KETTLE.
An aluminum preserving kettle has exceptionally good qualities. The heat is distributed evenly over the entire utensil, and stirring is therefore not necessary, and the foods do not burn. Aluminum has no enamel to chip off and is not affected by the acids of fruits.
COMBINATION COOKER.
This combination makes an excellent cooking outfit. Its old uses are not filled so well by any other utensil. The ears of the kettle are of a special improved design holding the ball in an upright or lowered position as desired.
SELF-BASTING ROASTER.
Delicious, well-browned, juicy roasts are the result of this roaster. Perfect self-basting is produced by the steam condensing on the cover and dripping back over the roast, thereby making it juicy and appetizing.
Read, Consider and Act
Every woman enjoys beautiful cooking vessels or utensils. Arrangements have been made with one of the largest Aluminum Manufacturers in the United States, whereby we will be able to offer to our patrons such

STRAINER OR COLANDER
It is very handy to rinse berries,
lettuce, etc., with this strainer. It also serves as a strainer or colander.
CASSEROLE OR BAKE DISH.
An ideal pan for baking apples,
beans, escalloped potatoes, macaroni,
and similar foods.
BERLIN KETTLE.
This attractive Berlin Kettle is unexcelled for cooking and stewing vegetables. The bulged sides are a big advantage as they make it easy to pour liquids from the vegetables. They prevent the food from sliding out when the kettle is tilted to draint off the liquid. When used as a Windsor Kettle, it turns out delicious pot roasts without grease or water.
STEAMER SET.
This combination is exactly what you need to properly steam potatoes and corn on the cob. The pan is large enough to contain a large meal and the perforations throughout the entire bottom insure uniform and thorough cooking.
CORN POPPER OR CORN FLAKE
TOASTER
CORN POPPER OR CORN FLAKE
TOASTER.
How often it happens that you
need a utensil to do such odd little
things as popping corn, restoring the
crispness to corn flakes, roasting coffee,
etc. This answers these purposes nicely.

After the heavy rainfall, we are having some nice weather now. Excellent services were held here Sunday at each of the churches. At the M. E. Church there was a fine service which was enjoyed by all. Rev. F. Harrington preached for Rev. Barham and at 3 p. m. there was a Union service held at the A. M. E. Church, where the Rev. J. E. Edwards, is pastor, and he is conducting a revival. Rev. Barham, pastor of the M. E. Church has added five members and the church is very much revived and moving on to success. Rev. Dixon was at his post Sunday. He is pastor of the Baptist Church. Rev. Dixon is a good man and loved by all who know him. The high waters have caused some to move, and likely some more will have to move also, for the river is still rising, but has not done very much damage. The Rev. Barham is making big preparation for Easter with the assistance of Miss M. B. Mayberry, Mrs. C. C. Biffel and others of his church. Mrs. Barham is planning great things for the little folks.

TURNER COLLEGE, SHELBYVILLE.
The two graduating classes, English and Normals, have organized. The final test of the English class was made last week. Class honors for the speeches will be bestowed this week for selection. Two names are in preparation to be rendered in the near future. The plays are "A Ruined life" and "The only girl," and they are both under the direction of Miss Ella L. Jones, Mrs. Vitula Clemmons, of Paducah, Ky. has been recently added to the faculty, as music teacher, in place of Miss Commons, resigned. She is taking a hold of the situation like a veteran, and the students are delighted with her services. Mrs. Clemmons comes highly recommended from her home town, and from the institution where she has been trained. Her work is giving splendid satisfaction. The annual Student-Teacher Rally campaign was inaugurated last week, with the following captains and lieutenants at the head of the boosters: the purples —Mr. Tom L. Jones, captain, and Mr. Egleston Wisman, lieutenant; Miss Beatrice Brown, captain of the oranges; Miss Lucina Clayborne, lieutenant. The rally is to terminate on the first Sunday in April. The students are aiming to make an exhibition of self-help in this rally. The concrete floor in the basement has been completed, and the new dining room in the new building will be formally opened with a grand banquet in the near future under the auspices of the Turner College Boosters. The city people will be invited out to affair, and a great time is anticipated. Two visits to Nashville, recently on special business in the interest of the institution. His task has been unusually severe this year, but he has held up remarkably well. The loss of the boys' building at the very beginning of the school session, together with other disturbances which now and then befall institutions, have worked a hardship and proved a considerable handicap, but the student body and the corps of teachers are courageous, and the work is going forward with a most gratifying outlook.
Our school closed Friday night with an excellent program. Prof. S. G. C. Dameron made a business trip here Saturday. He is the efficient principal of the Henderson High School. Although he is a product of McNairy, of which all are proud, he has been offered the position here as principal. He is also a graduate of H. M. Kindle left for Memphis to take the civil service examination. Mrs. Amie Dauck is improving. She has been on the dick list for several days.

BROWNSVILLE NO.2.
Mrs. Lella (Smith) Hesse entered into rest Friday evening, March 2, 1917, from the home of her parents, Rev. and Mrs. Hardin Smith, of Jefferson street. Mrs. Hesse, who had resided in Chicago, Ill., for several years, where she had been ill for some months, was brought to the home of parents on February 2nd by her devoted husband, Mr. John Hesse, who remained with her for more than a week and then returned to his work. The constant care of her physician and tender solicitude of husband, parents and friends were of no avail; and when the final summons came with clear mind and trusting faith of a Christian she bade those at her bedside "Farewell" and peacefully tell asleep. She was born September 11, 1887. At the age of 11 years she became a Christian and thereafter lived a consistent and the World's Baptist Church of which her father been the pastor for more than fifty years. She was educated at the Dunbar High School and became one of the prominent teachers of Haywood County, when finally Rev. and Mrs. Smith moved to our city, Brownville, their daughter, Lella, became one of the leading spirit in the activities of church and Sunday school, and being one of the leaders in the Young People's Improvement Society of the First Baptist Church. She was married to Mr. John Hesse on December 20, 1909. One child was born to this union. She was kind and frank in disposition and loving manner, hence those who knew her only knew her to love her. Character was blameless. As a wife, she was kind, generous, patient and affectionate; as a daughter, loving and obedient; as a neighbor, unselfish and easy to aid those who needed her service; as a teacher, she was patient and zealous. The funeral services were impressively carried out at the First Baptist Church on Monday at 4:30 p.m., by Rev. A. A. Parr, who was the pastor of the church was Rev. 14:13. "And I heard a voice beamed the dead which die in the Lord from henceforth, Yea, saith the Spirit, that they may rest from their labors; and their works do follow them." Subject, "The Blessed Rev. Parr gave a beautiful sermon on the life of the deceased, drawing a picture of her activity in the church and giving his personal knowledge and observation of her life, bringing out many striking features of same. Just before the sermon the Rev. Mr. S. P. Morrow pastor of the C. M. E. Church, ofered a very touching prayer, the choir then sang her favorite song "Hide Thou Me." immediately after the sermon a solo, "Die is only a dream," was most affectionately rendered by Mrs. Maud Donnell Curtis, with Mrs. J.

ly attended by her pastor Dr. J. Q. Johnson and Rev. Collier, pastor of the Presbyterian, Church. Last Sunday at St. Paul was "get-together-day" and it was a success to say the least. The church had the honor as well as the very great pleasure of having Bishop Evans Tyrce with them. He preached one of his soul stirring sermons to a large and appreciative audience. Bishop Tyrce is a favorite with Columbians, regardless of denomination or race as they were some of the better class of white people of the city present. Dr. Rickes, pastor of the first Methodist church, (white) led in prayer at the opening of the services. Miss Leora Barton of State Normal, snelt the week end with her parents, Mr. and Mrs. William Barton. She had as her guest, Miss Mable Myers of State Normal. Mrs. Lue Chisam and Mr. Cal Neece were quietly married at the home of her parents, Mr. and Mrs. Bowden on South Glade Street. Rev. Henderson, pastor of one of the Primitive Baptist churches officiated. Sunday afternoon several friends besides Dr. J. Q. Johnson accompanied Bishop Tyrce to the station to see him off. He left at 6 p.m. Mr. Thomas Graham is seriously ill at his home on East 10th street. Miss Corine and Annie L. Booker entertained at their home. March 6th will be held. Mr. P. E.

Mrs. Emma Carter and Mrs. Maggie Doyle, entertained at dinner, Sunday at their beautiful home on North High street in honor of Bishop Tyrce.

Those seated at the table were, Bishop Evans Tyrce. Dr. J. Q. Johnson, Miss Maggie Green, Mrs. A. M. Kelly, Mrs Emma Carter and Mr. and Mrs. Ran Kindyole. Mrs. Oliver Nicholson has been quite sick, but is improving and will be able to be out again.

KANSAS LEGHSLATURE APPRO-
PRIATISED NEGRO
A bill has just passed both branches of the Kansas Legislature, appropriating the sum of $73,850.00 for the maintenance of the State Industrial Department at *Western University*, Quindaro, Kansas, for two years. Out of this appropriation, a new department will be opened to give instruction in Auto repairing and Machine construction, to be ready for the opening of the fall term. The school has recently purchased a motor
truck from the firm of C. R. Patterson and Sons, Norgroo builders of motor cars, of Greenfield, Ohio, and will purchase others shortly. While no money were allowed for new buildings, the appropriation carries with it increased maintenance, supplies. This amount is several times and dollars above the last appropriation of two years ago.
MOREHOUSE COLLEGE
The baseball team began the season last Saturday by winning the first game from Clark University by a score of 10 to 6. A bunch of new material is on hand and it appears that several will demand regular places on the team. Only two players of last year's team participated in the game. Next Saturday we play against Atlanta University on their grounds. The Athenaeum Publishing Co. of Spelman and Morehouse gave the second annual concert at Spelman the past Friday night. It was a success. President Hope is now away on a trip to Boston, Mass.
S. S. ALLIANCE HAS ROUSING MEETING. FIGHTING FOR TEMPERANCE.
The regular second Sunday meeting of the Methodist S. S. Alliance, at the A. M. E. S. S. Union Building, was to say the least, a "ronser." The theme of the program, was "Temperance." It was Bethel S. S. Day, the program being furnished from that school. Good music was rendered by a lady's quartette, using Temperance songs set to the tune of familiar and popular music. One interesting feature, was a blackboard presentation of the states that have gone dry, alphaeotically, drawn in puzzle form, by the Superintendent of Bethel, Mr. Shackleford. Miniature flags bearing the words, "Goodbye, Saloon," were given as souvenirs.
The banner school for attendance Sunday was Bethel, which led with twenty-seven other. Other schools represented were St. John, St. Paul, Scrovel Street, St. Lake, and Trinity. Those not present were St. James, Payne Chapel, Salem, et al. We mention those because we have at times had attendance from them.
Next second Sunday will be St. Paul Day, and we are expecting great things. She will have charge of a demonstration from Intermediate Department.
Dr. C. V. Roman and Mr. Ira T. Bryant spoke briefly on Temperance, urging that proper credit be given the women of the country for pioneer temperance work. Dr. Roman asked that we remember and learn more of Frances W. Harper, a colored woman who swept the country in temperance campaign work, and stirred the nation with her temperance poems and songs. Don't forget the next meeting. Pub

CHATTANO
Recently there was written an article by the above named Doctor under the caption, "Let Us Have Peace." I have read it with a great deal of care and wish very much that his heart could be fashioned thus. Now how can that peace be obtained and realized throughout the denomination? This question causes wonder to me and all the rest of us. In fact I do not believe that there will ever be any peace until these men leading the fight against the Publishing House get what they want and they must have it, if keeping people on the dark side of the question will get it, and give the Publishing House to them. We all know beyond a doubt that the split in the National Baptist Convention was not on an count of the Publishing House; in fact the Publishing House was not mentioned so far as I observed and I was present throughout the meeting in Chicago.
But on the other hand, that numerous charter which was intended either to mothbite or depopulate the real workers of the denomination and subjugate the business affairs of the denomination into the hands of seven men, whose business would have been to dethrone whom they might and to put in places of honor and responsibility those whom they choose to put in so that all the rest of the denomination would have nothing to do but see the "bosses" rule is the REAL cause of the split in our denomination.
There are a large number of ministers who are striving to keep the real issue from the people, but I as a Baptist minister of the thing settled right until the people are the intelligently informed; and that the Baptists should and ought to have a voice in the affairs of the denomination. For one I shall always stand alone whenever the right of the majority to rule shall be taken from Baptist polity.
When I was a boy I was my father's hog feeder, and how well do I remember that when I would pour a basket of corn in the pen it was satisfactory to all in the pen. I stood many a time and watched them eat with satisfaction and these hogs were always fine looking and well-fed. But there were those on the outside keeping up a russ and trying to break into the pen and they woud never cease hollering and biting the rails until they got corn. As soon as they got corn then peace came. So it is in this peace drive of Dr. Eason. You must either give somebody some corn or put it where they can get it or peace will never come.
I am willing for them to have it if it is right that they should, but I will fight long and well it is wrong. These men have no more right to break into the Publishing House, and take it by strategy than any one else has. In fact, when Baptist bodies adjourn there is an authority or power left with any set of men to make or coerce a man or of men bow to them or do their bidding. In fact, these men who are trying to get into the Publishing House and tear up the Board, I be content to tell them that I quarters of the denomination from which all the power authority and rule must eminate. This condition and kind of action was not existent and done under Paul's administration; Jesus Christ never ordered it, and there are some Baptists who will never consent to it during this life because it is an Baptistic from every angle.
And as long as these things are as they are, there shall be a submarine or Truth that shall run through the high seas of irregularity and at least a respectable majority will see to it that the truth shall continue to go marching on. That the Baptists shall be free and not dismembered shall be their watch-word through time and through eternity.
I want it understood that we stand for the people's rule in the Baptist church, and that all our convictions and associations are slimy, mutual, pious. Bring it over God's inheritance is hard to do. I pray it to Pope, Bishop or bench of Bishops will we as Baptists ever how to. We detest and hate the strife engendered in this controversy, but we must have peace by righteous means or we shall never have peace unless by mutuality. Possibly we have gone into this unreasonable controversy because the commission did not

prayerfully go into it, and hence—no peace.
—The People's Defender.
GOD WRESTLING WITH MAN.
Text: "And Jacob was left alone. And there wrestled a man with him until the breaking of the day." Gen. 32:24.
Jacob's context here with the angel of the covenant represents the strugghing process between God and man. Jacob at Bethol was convinced of God's power, but he had never been convinced of this own weakness and dependence. Therefore God met him at Jabab when he was by himself and contended with him in a wrestling combat of a threefold nature, of physical, mental, and bird, spirit, and the became fully conscious of his own weakness and dependence, and sought divine aid. Then he blessed him and depaquet.
I. Men who seek the divine aid from God must be truly conscious of their physical weakness.
There is a combat in which two men can engage that will more thoroughly test, their physical strength than wrestling. It exerts every joint and strength every nerve. No strong man can be conscious of his deficiency when he comes in contact with one mightier than himself, but when the strongest of men come in contact with God they find more than a match. In physical strength God is incomparable, for there is none like unto him. For he rideth upon the heavens in the excellency of the sky and looks out upon the mighty works of creation and they all say there is none like unto him in strength. The Holy Bible tells us that in six days God made the world and all things therein, and what a mighty power he must have been! What is p corman in the hands of such a God? This is what men must consider and know. He must not only know that God is strong, but he must also know that he, himself is weak. God is wrestling with men of today that they may know their business to cause some men's business to fall because they know their weakness. He sends dues and takes away their relations that they may know their weakness. He sends upon nations earthquakes and pestilence that they may know their weakness, and just as he touched the hollow of Jacob's thigh so he touches the hollow of nations and individuals that they may know their weakness.
II. Men must not only be convinced of their weakness, but they also must be fully conscious of their ignorance. Man must know that God has all wisdom as well as all power. That he is ignorant as well as weak. There is a way that seemeth right unto men but the end thereof is the ways of death. This is men's way of ignorance which he must know before he can see God's way of wisdom, which is life eternal. God lets the ignorance of men upset religious bodies and get things in a tangle that they may know their ignorance and also know that God has all wisdom. God lets nations lay plans in ground upon upset and turn the government updown down they know that they are ignorant. Education is a great thing and the world cannot do well without it, but it is hurtful and dangerous in the head of a grand rascal, for he that is more ambitious for honor and tame than for usefulness in life is a hypocrite.
III. Men are not only weak and ignorant, but sinful and wicked, and this they must fully recognize before God's divine aid is given. For God is not only powerful and wise, but he is righteous. He is the very aime of perfection and this men must know, and not only this, but they must know that they are sinful and that all of his righteousness in the sight of God is but little rage, and this all men must truly acknowledge before they can obtain God's help and divine aid in whatever work or business they may be engaged in. Men be today are wrestling with God in trying to work under new plans or church government and trade to move the old lankmark, and they will in ignorance continue to try until God as did Jacob touches the hollow of their thigh end they will go limpine. But God has always and will always have a people that will stand fast in the faith and content for the faith that was once delivered to the saints. The real Christian will realize the fact that there is no victory without a battle. They still hear the cry coming from the pulpits of God's ministers, saying "Flight the good light of faith for there remaineth a rest for the people of God but not here and not now but in the world beyond the well of fears."

BULLY BILLY BOOKER THREATENS THE LIE OF THE EDITOR OF THE PEOPLE'S DEFENDER.
While the editor of the People's Defender was quietly entertaining several gentlemen and brethren in his office last Tuesday morning, March 6, he was called to his door by a raid that proved to be that of the young man whose name appears above. Upon inquiry as to what was desired, the serious threats alleged were made because of the editor's position in our educational and state work.
The editor of the People's Defender simply calls attention to this in order that if any untoward circumstances should take place, that his brethren would not be without a alice, and also, to warn the brotherhood that if any untoward thing should happen to the editor that some young man of both courage and ability should take up the pen where it is snatched from his hands by cowardly assassins, and proceed uncompromisingly with the work of the denomination; and cease not until the Baptists shall have been

So far as the editor is concerned, he shall continue in the even tenor of his ways to defend the cause of the people and the church, to expose the wrong and defend the right, with this as a matter of principle, with malice toward none but the perfect fear toward God only.
moment black their difference, or stop pressing the collar, for the victory while in sight is not yet complete.
Wherever these words may fall into the hands of any of our brethren, let them know that it is a message of encouragement. The editor of the People's Defender feels that with such man as J. P. Robinson, R. R. Porter, G. A. Long, B. R. Williams, N. Nichols, J. S. Steele, J. E. Bryce, T. S. Elmore, G. F. Small, G. W. Millsaps, Wm. Hurt, T. L. Lawson, J. A. Steel, E. L. Harris, E. D. McDade, J. E. Brown, W. M. Hill, B. H. Haynes, A. H. Gentry, F. H. Cook, these with a host of others that space will not permit us to mention, coupled with the great women with whom they are associated such as Sarah J. Porter, Emma Russell, Gertrude Dennis, Laura Jones, Mattie C. Gaines, Mrs. Wm. Mack, Mrs. G. A. Long, Mrs. E. B. King, Mrs. Callie Duncans, Mrs. Carrie Johnson, Mrs. Ida Johnson, and Hattie Carmichael, with these, we say, the editor feels that the work is in safe hands and will by no means suffer, but let us begin now our spring and summer campaign, that is to wind up next fall, and push it with oil of the vigor of our souls until the baner of one Lord, one faith and one Baptism and Baptist regularity and majority rule, the National Baptist Publishing House support shall have been planted in every vale, and on every hilltop, but to do this we must work unceasingly. Don't forget, work, work, work. Be not intimidated, nor thrown off your course because of fear, for God has said: "Fear not man who can only kill the body, but fear him only who can destroy the body, and send the soul to hell."
—The People's Defender.
BAPTIST CHURCHES, SIT UP AND TAKE NOTICE.
If the People's Defender stands for anything, it stands for the defense of the people, and by this we mean the people of regularity against those who are irregular, for the people who may be humble against those who are arrogant, for the poor in spirit against those who may feel themselves considerably inflated from the standpoint of personality and sociability. The People's Defender hopes to stand as a watchtower with the light of Gospel regularity and church purity in its hand, waving the path of right that none of the way-farers searching for our Master's kingdom may be lost, therefore it sounds the warning that Baptist churches should sit up and take notice.
They should take notice first of un-Godly Baptist preachers—preachers who are out for a dollar without regard for the well-being of the souls of men, or for the good and propagation of the Master's kingdom on earth. Men who are out for the dollar, and if they cannot get it honorably, will get it dishonorably. If they cannot get it righteously, they will get it unrighteously, and by dishonorably and unrighteously, we mean in that way and manner not guaranteed or vouchsafed by the Scriptures and the New Testament church, and the code of regulations governing the Master's kingdom on earth.
The editor of the People's Defender regards when a man gets money, that is a preacher, when he gets money from a church by a legal process especially if that obligation involves, only pastoral dues, then he gets that money dishonorably and unrighteously; for the preacher who pastors a church and fails to be able to raise the necessary amount of revenue to fit and fill bills of that particular church goes beyond the divine law and thus becomes a law-breaker when he resorts to the courts to give him such revenue. The churches therefore are advised to look out for all such preachers, and when they discover that they cannot keep

up with the amount that they have agreed that the minister should take out of what he raises, they should dismiss him, or they may be inviting a lawsuit and humiliation upon themselves. The salary of a Baptist preacher amounts to nothing more or less than that he is given the charge of the people, and per agreement is permitted a certain per cent for his hire, for his sustenance; of what he can through his influence cause the people to get up. Nothing more nor nothing less belongs to him. It is his indispensible duty when he discovers that he cannot raise sufficient means for his hire and cannot afford to sacrifice that he should seek other fields under divine direction.
The second thing concerning which the Baptist church should sit up and take notice is the bread and butter preacher, the preacher who is out not for principle but for what he can get out of the church. A man who will enter the church and say to that church whatever side you line up with is all right with me. I'll go with you, whether you line up with the Progressives or the Old-liners, whether you line up with the regular racial and denominational enterprise as it applies to our Sunday school literature and publishing house, and whether you line up with irregularity at 409 Gay street, headed and fostered by those who are irregular, matters not with me. I'll line up, and go whichever way you go, this kind of preacher is unworthy of the pulpit of any Baptist church. He is a man without a principle, and as such should be driven as a mad dog from your door. There can and may be some extenuating circumstances for the man who assumes the wrong position, or for the want of light and intelligence gets upon the wrong side of a question, but stands tenaciously there even until he is convinced, but there is no excuse, no extenuating circumstances, no quarters ought to be shown or pity given to the man without convictions, to the man without principle. The preacher should lead the people right and when the people become so hard-hearted and given over to evil opinions that he cannot break them down, rather than go with them and consent to them in their wrong and error and sin, he should shake off the dust of his feet and depart to other cities, knowing that God has said, that it will be more tolerable in the days of judgment for Sodom and Gomorrah than for that city.
There are a few such preachers in our district and state, men who claim they are not going to have anything to do with anything until the Baptists get right; they are not going to take sides with anybody; they are going to, so they say, simply preach the Gospel without taking sides with anybody. This position is untenable, unChristian, unmany, wicked and sinful, is only the position of a coward, of a bread-and-butter man. The real Gospel preacher will take a stand knowing that, he is responsible to the great head of the church for the lead of the people, he will take a

THE NASHVILLE RAILWAY & LIGHT CO. ARE TAKING EXTRA PRECAUTIONS TO AVOID ACCIDENTS IN HANDLING CARS, BUT THEY MUST HAVE
YOUR HELP
TO ATTAIN THE HIGH DEGREE OF SUCCESS POSSIBLE IN THIS WORK
DON'T get off until the car stops.
DON'T jump on or off a moving car or vehicle.
DON'T put your head or arms out of the window.
DON'T block the aisles with baggage or bundles.
DON'T allow your children to play on the streets.
DON'T allow your boys to steal rides on the cars.
DON'T rush or crowd in getting on cars.
DON'T fail to look in both directions when crossing behind cars.
DON'T drive out of a cross street without first seeing the road is clear.
DON'T attempt to get on cars except at stations located for that purpose.
DON'T fail to move to the front on entering a car; others want to get on.
DON'T take chances; don't let a misstep cost you an accident or perhaps your life.
DON'T fail to practice safety yourself; others will follow you.
Once more I call attention to our work. Since the winter has past and spring is in my wake, let us make one strong will for the Master. The future outlook for our work is very promising. The Lord, has given us faith and he has promised us the victory if we only trust him. Our glorious victory in the past and our iron strength of will which the Master has given us should be encouraging to us and we are ready for all sacrifices for the God who gave to our fathers freedom and liberty and who will give to us the victory if we only trust him. And those who would be our enmies he will make our friends. So let us have a local B. Y. P. U. in every church. This is progressive and if we do this you will see a church filled with workers for the Master. Our work is to be pushed this year as never before, so let us make a united effort with every lover of the work. To the officers of the B. Y. P. U.: Let us get busy and where there is no local B. Y. P. U., with the consent of the pastor let us organize one and not wait until near our annual meeting to begin work. Let us get busy now and when the meeting time comes in November all that we will have to do is to make our report. So let us get busy. The State B. Y. P. U. missionary will start on his tour of the state Sunday, March 11th and we hope for him much success in his work. We hope that every pastor will receive him gladly. The missionary, Brother J. E. Brice is a hard worker in B. Y. P. U. work, so let us all be at our post of duty when he comes.
Always look over your left shoulder before stepping from the sidewalk. Then if it is safe to leave the sidewalk, when you are near the middle of the street keep looking to the right.

Thus they have ordered the doors closed for they know that is the only means of their salvation, is to shut out the truth. That is truly the policy of satan: His policy is to keep the truth from the world, he does not want the simple truth of Jesus Christ preached to the world, for he realizes that the truth makes man free, that the truth breaks his hand, that the truth puts him out of a job, that the truth destroys his wicked emoluments, therefore his chief endeavors in the world are to keep the real truth from the world. So with our brethren, they close their pulpits, they do not want the real truth as it relates to the regularity of the church discussed before their people. They do not want that the people shall hear that they are fighting the Publishing House not because they want the ownership or that the ownership does not inhere in the people, but because they want to get their hands upon the filthy lucre; their itching palms, their shaky arms are struggling to get hold of the financial end of our denominational work. They do not want that brought out. Mr. Moses says, "Close them up, shut them out, close the door, don't hear them," but it is to be hoped, it is to be believed that the door will swing wide open, and the truth will be told, and the work established by the fathers will be maintained. By all means, let the people have the light, then whatever their judgment may be, let it obtain for the voice of the people is the voice of God.

to reason. He never closes the door so that he cannot hear argument. He invites criticism, thought, argument in order that if there be anything illogical or unreasonable in his own position that he may be brought to see it and therefore abandon it, for every real good man desires to carry his point, but he does not desire to carry his point at the expense of right or righteousness. No real Christian man would permit himself to go up at the expense of truth. There is not a real righteous man living upon the face of the earth today but what would rather see his individual self subjugated, humiliated, cast down than to see the real principles of Jesus Christ and racial development go down, and therefore being a creature of failibility in his very soberest thought and highest judgment may be mistaken, and therefore if he is reasonable, he will always leave room for conviction, for argument, for research, for recantation. He never closes the door and shuts out argument, but that is the policy adopted by our brethren, that method is argued, and urged by our brethren from the National Baptist Convention down through the State Conventions, down through the district associations. Their policy is to shut out, close the door against the brethren who may have different opinions without giving their brethren an opportunity to hear those opinions, or themselves an opportunity to hear those opinions; but more miserable still, they close the door and prevent the God's great church from hearing, and judging and thinking and deciding for themselves. Their policy as advocated by Dr. Moses, the scholarly prince of Philadelphia, advocated by the president of the National Baptist Convention, incorporated, that policy adopted by the State Baptist Convention at Hot Springs, Ark. that policy adopted and affirmed by the little split-off wing of the Union District Association and by other associations in the state. It is truly a policy of wickedness and fear, for wickedness always genders fear. The wicked fleeth when no man pursueth. The man who has not an argument, who doubts his position, who is afraid of his evidence does not want to go to court, does not want, the evidence picked to pieces before the judge and the jurors because he realizes that according to his evidence in hand, he must receive an adverse decision. The man whose evidence is all right, who is sure of his ground, recognizes that he is right, fears not, for he anticates pates before an impartial tribunal that he will obtain the favorable degree. So with our brethren, they fear the tribunal of the people, they do not want that the people shall hear an impartial portrayal of all the evidences that enter into this great controversy that is so agitat
Text: Sam. 19:32: "Let no man's heart fall because of him thy servant will go and fight."
1. Confidence in God is a source of the highest and noblest courage. We think that we can do all things through Christ. All things are his subjects. All he wills to do he does. Therefore confidence in God is a source of joy. Confidence is the most self-sacrificing devotion to duty. Confidence gives us that go forwardness and most exalted virtue. Confidence, its depth, its breadth, its height cannot be fathomed out because it goes down in geology beneath the stratered race. It ascends into astronomy and deals with jupiter and Mars. It takes its flight back and farther back till it gets host in wonder and in amazement. A human track does their would. It concludes conclusive evidence that a human foot has trod that desert. 2. Pass experience of the readiness and power of God to help encourages men to trust in him and to expect from him in the future all which they need. That is why David said "Let no man's heart fail because of him. Thy servant will go and fight."
3. The heart is the center of attraction or vital part of man. The heart is made strong through past achievements. David had killed both jion and the bear. He said, "What is this uncriticised Phillis-tine that he should defy the armies of God?" The Progressive Baptists of Arkansas are made strong through past achievements. The lion and the bear are its prey. Who is Goliath that he should defy the church of God? 4. The breastworks we have to fight behind are the will. David said, "The thy servant will go and fight." Let us encourage will-power; let us will to do right and do it with all of our might; let us will to fight for the cause once delivered to the saints. If the Son make you free ye are free indeed.
WHAT IS THE FUTURE?
To the Lovers of the Progressive B.
Y. P. J. of Arkansas:
(a) Getting down in the trenches and fighting. And Saul put his armour on, David his helmet on, but he refused to go with them. He took his sling and five stones which he picked up in the brook and fought the giant and killed him. It is not highgh onons' given to us by men at all times that cause us to win; but it is the confidence in God. Jesus my Saviour said, "Lo, I come in the volume of the book: it is written of me to do Thy will, O God." (b) Our tictacs of warfare are toight the good sight of faith and lay hold on eternal life. 1. Sword of the Spirit which is the word of God. 2. Helmet of salvation used to save men from ash.
Bronzeplate of righteousness our frontlets should be of righteousness. Shield of faith to turn the bury darts of satan. Faith, confidence and trust in God. Have confidence to believe we can win and prove it by perseverance. Let no man's heart fail because of him. Thy servant will go and fight. The People's Defender.
SUPPRESSION AND NOT ARGU-
MENT THE METHOD.
The methods of evil, the methods of wrong have always been to suppress, to resort to foul, wicked oppression to carry its point. This is due of course to its inherent weakness caused by the indwelling germ of sin. The man who regards himself right, conscientiously so, the man who loves God and truly wants to see right triumph is always open

JUBILEE CONCERT MARCH 23.

The distinguishing feature of the concert this year will be that the receipts from the sale of tickets will be the Colored Y. M. C. A. and Fisk University equally. This combination of organizations for the up-building of society (for a benefit to a part of society) will mean a general gain for the whole) should be a double incentive to hear the concert. Do we not all feel happier when our own desires fulfilled bring benefit to others? In addition to hearing the beloved plantation melodies you will this year have an opportunity to hear the Tennessee Industrial Band and see the boys' new instruments. Another emulation for upbuilding. The Board of Trade announces also a Jubilee Day on March 23 when

BETHEL A. M. E. CHURCH.
We wish to say that we are progressing nicely amid the changeable weather. Last Sunday was the closing of our second quarterly conference in which each department of the church worked hard to make same a success. Having with us on last Sunday at 11 o'clock, Rev G. W. Allen, at 3 p. m., Rev W. A. Anderson and at 8 p. m. our worthy P. E. Rev. G. L. Jackson, Sr. Each sermon was inspiring and helpful. At 9:30 a. m. the Sunday school held its regular service which was very interest. At 20 p. m. the A. C. League was as active as ever. Monday, March 12, the business part of the quarterly conference was held. All reports were good. The Trustee A. B board leading the quarter. All boards have started another quarter for hard and earnest work in peace and harmony, feeling under the guidance of God, we will accomplish much. We have lost this quarter three of our members. We hope our loss is heaven's gain. You are welcome to come and worship with us.
The Ladies Guild of Clark Memorial Church met Thursday night, March 10th at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Thomas Black, 12 East Hill St. The president being absent, the meeting was presided over by the vice president, Mrs. Lovd Matthews and was opened by singing, "What a friend we have in Jesus." Miss Mattie S. Jones presided at the piano, prayer was of force by the pastor, Rev. W. R. Stevens, Scripture reading by Miss Exie Muny. After verses were said by all, each month was reported and quite a neat sum was realized. We planned to have what will be called a Big Ball at the parsonage, 50 Lea Street, Thursday night, March 22nd. After all business was transacted a two course menu was served. The hostess was assisted by Miss Maggie and Beulah Ridley. Quite a large number of both members and visitors were present. The visitors were, Miss Exit Muny, Miss Geneva Handcock Mrs. H. W.

The friends of Fairfield Baptist Church Volunteer Band have been wondering why the club issue does not appear.

Each member responded with dues and a quotation. The meeting was largely attended by the members and visitors, some taking part with the club, words of encouragement were spoken by different friends concerning the club work. The president made a short talk and asked each member and friends to turn out on the fourth Sunday in March to a rally at the church; business of various kinds was discussed after which an ice course was served.

It was quite interesting to see such a little toit imitating a young lady of long ago. Mattie Mae recited "Little Brown Baby with Sparkling eyes." She handled her dolly a.

CASCARA BARK
BLUE FLAG ROOT
RHUBARB ROOT
BLACK ROOT
MAY APPLE ROOT
SENNA LEAVES
AND PEPSIN
In LAX-Fos the CASCARA is improved by the addition of these digestive ingredients making it better than ordinary CASCARA, and thus the combination acts not only as a stimulating laxative and cathartic but also as a digestive and liver tonic. Syrup laxatives are weak, but LAX-Fos combines strength with palatable, aromatic taste and does not gripe or disturb the stomach. One bottle will prove LAX-Fos is invaluable for Constipation, Indigestion or Torpid Liver. Price 50c
