Washington, the speaker of the day. The various railroads entering the city gave reduced rates for the occasion. Dr. Washington came to Augusta at the invitation of the Lincoln Dugas, of which Dr. R. G. Williams, a prominent physician and former student of Tuskegee, is president. Great preparations had been made for his entertainment during his stay in the city. He and his stenographer were entertained at the residence of Dr. Williams. The parade was the largest and most representative in the history of our city, and the entertainment during the day was assisted by a number of competitor aides.

The procession passed through some of the principal streets of the city and South Carolina during the entire line of march. The exercises were held at the Thankful Baptist Church, which has the largest existing capacity of any church in the city. Long before 10 o'clock the church was closed and drums were turned away. The devotional services were conducted by Bishop R. S. Williams of the C. M. R. Church. After the reading of the Proclamation, Dr. Washington was introduced by Dr. Willis. The church was cement, able, elegant, and latently practical, and the people listened attentively to it as a wholesome instruction. A crowd of people of all ages and chance pushed the way to the front to shake Dr. Williams. The congregation followed through the street by a multitude or people, old and young, seeking an opportunity to get his hand. The afternoon of Monday was spent by the guest driving through the city and writing the diary and business houses of colored men.

Stoney, the Nester of Negro physicians of this city, and toastmaster. The hall was beautifully decorated and music was furnished by Walton's orchestra. Rev. C. T. Walker responded to the toast "Our Guest." Mr. H. C. Young, one of the leading merchants of the race, discussed the progress of the Negro community and spoke on the press. Bishop R. S. Williams responded to the toast "The Negro Pilot." Dr R. C. Williams represented "Negro Physicians," and Miss L. C. Laney, principal of Haynes Institute, responded to the toast. Our Educators, which was wise and full of encouragement, Dr. C. T. Walker, introducing "Our Guest," said: **Booker T. Washington is a great man great in heart, great in soul, great in good works. He is indeed the Muses of our country, the millions from the house of bondage, and Washington is the leader of ten millions from ignorance, vice and superstition. Moses was not grandest and most glorious when he stood in the court of Pharaoh, but he was the leader of the caravan across the Red Sea, nor was he grandest when he stood amidst the thunderings and ligatures of Sinai's smoking mountains; but he was most of all the leader of half of his despair and rejected people. So has our modern Moses turned away from the lucrative inducements and chosen rather to suffer affliction with his despair race in the black belt of the south than to government or hold a political offer.

BRUCK'S ORATION Dead Young, Mr. Baldwin WIN Live in Memory a Youth—His Services to Society—He "Bought the Active Good"—His Love for Man Not "Painted by a Black Skin." Special Correspondent of The Art TURNORK INSTITUTE, Ala., Jan. 7. — The faculty and students of Tuskegee Institute were plunged into grief by the news of the death of Wm. H. Baldwin, Jr., the benefactor and friend of the institution. Dr. Washington was deputed by the Executive Council to represent the Institute at the funeral and to bear to Mr. Baldwin and her children the sympathy of the teachers and students. Exercises in memory of Mr. Baldwin were held in the Tuskegee Institute chapel on last Thursday evening. Mr. Roscoe Conkling Bruce, director of the academic department, delivered the following notable address: *Mr. Baldwin's death Tuesday morning brought to the heart of every one of us here poignant grief. Last year with the budding spring he came to us, rejoicing in abundant life and strength and hope. The cold breath of wister has now (overborne all) his promise and perseverance year. He died young; and he is spirit and outlook. "The secret of Mr. Baldwin's leadership—and he was always and everywhere a leader—lay. I think, largely in this abundance of life. It made him a power in industrial organization, a leader of a railway and of a company. He threw the tremendous force of his personality into the reorganization of the Southern Railway system, doing the active work of rejuvenating the real play of the company and it led him into the more diverse fields of social activity. He will be remembered not one bit more for his career as railway manager, financier, director of more than 40 power companies, in the settlement of an infinite variety of labor disputes, to civic rights高屢 as chairman of the Reform Committee of Fifth Avenue in New York city, and is the South Carolina governor and people as president of the General Education Board and trustee of Tennessee Institute—services which giorified his leisure. Whatever the matter in hand—in 89 fighting the rioters on the U.S. border and in enterprises of connecting the Long Island Railway with the Pennsylvania system by tunnels under the North and East Rivers and under Manhattan island, or assuring the maintenance and increasing efficiency of his power in the management of his power with a radiant enthusiasm and delight in indebodably contagious. "He was a man without fear or reproach. Goodness is pathetic unless it possess an affirmative, a dynamic, a constructive quality. Baldwin does not set before us as the guard of the enduring pleasures in substantial blamelessness; he rightlessness. A man may be at once blameless and lifeless. The merely blameless citizen deserves no lots of credit for the election of Mayor Low Reform administration and the Tammany Hall; it was the Baldwin type of man—eager not to contemplate and innocuously complain, but to do promptly whatever his hands found to do—it was the man and men of a stamp which bought the right feeling to its bounding vigor sought always the active good. "His heart was not more ardent than his head was clear. The emotions of a great nature may be likened to the energy of water, which is an inert material; an ineffulgent jet of water 200 feet in the air or to the steam whose ordered energy is utilized in a modern locomotive. William H. Baldwin, Jr., was a man of powerful emotions, but his magnificent intellect was also a man of troubled and directed by consecutive thinking and most uncommon common sense. "He was your true philanthropist; in a wholesome way he loved men. There are those who passion for human discipline, for the individual man. Contrariwise, there are those whose regard for particular persons absorbs their whole attention, and the reasonable demands of the race, of humanity at large, go unheeded. And for men as palsied by a black skin, whose enthuisiasm for humanity comprehends merely the white-faced fraction. William H. Baldwin, Jr., recognized manliness and as a man of manliness, the essential qualities, he bowed his head. Black men he standfastly believed as human as white men. To us here at Turkgee he was not alms but a friend—the best of many noble friends. He won our hearts and memory will hearten and strengthen and beckon many generations of Turkgee students to vigorous goodness." Newman Memorial Church No services were held at the Newman Memorial M. E. Church on Sunday, Jan. 8, as the building was closed by the trustees for the purpose of completing the work of remodeling. Through the kindness of Rev. and Mr. Chas. Waters of 569.

Geermann, the Nebraska senator and warfighter, has announced that the Senator, on his seventy years old, will not be a candidate for re-election to the Senate if he can go into asemble so as to characterize his last convention, but that even if he does not stand for re-election he will keep his willfulness gag on the Democratic nominee of Maryland, and strive to get through his pet debate to disaffect the Afro-American élites of that State. Governor Warfield is opposed to the disaffecting scheme, and has so far been able to block it, the question of submitting the amendment to the popular vote being now the course of the State. Governor Warfield is therefore likely to give Senator Geermann all the trouble possible if he should decide to stand for re-election. To as one of the profoundest riddles in the Divine economy is why such men as Gorman should be born, and two to be old even unto the limit set by the prophet, and be allowed to occupy high and honorable places in the affairs of men and acquire large wealth. To those who know the long record of this Semester, which has been characterized by corruption in political management and obstruction of all that made for National glory and prosperity and the enlargement of human rights, it is a fair conclusion that he has not only lived too long but that it would have been better for the Republic if he had not been born at all. There will be few outside the circle of fire demanding Democrats who will regret it when age and timidity cut short his perennial activity in American politics. And we announce in advance that we have no flower to place upon his new made grave. In all ages men of his stamp have been a corner to the race or the nation afflicted with their existence. "The Way to Prosperity." It is said that there are some 10,000,000 "immediately poor" people in this country. Perhaps there are. "The poor we have always with you," says the Good Book, and perhaps it will always be that way, for some will save and some will spend; some will always look out for the rainy day and some will always back in the sunshine and think that it will always last, and live in "a fool's paradise" until the storm breaks upon them and they are unable to shelter themselves from its fury. The fact that there are so many poor people in this country is accounted for by the wintime by reason of the large foreign immigration, which has aggregated some 12,000,000 since 1890. The Saturday Evening Post says completely, "It is amazing how rapidly we teach the newborns hope and the way to property." We teach these people hope, we grant, but we cannot teach them "the way to property." They come here with most of the knowledge they need on that score and can, as we have observed them, give native Americans lessons. We might as well claim that, we teach the Chinese or the Japanese "the way to property," "these people who have reduced toll and self-dental to an exact science. What constitutes the knowledge which makes plain "the way to prosperity," which the masses of Europe and the Orient have no mastered that they have nothing to learn of us? Simply to know how and to be willing to labor to the utmost, with the smallest possible expenditure for the necessities of life, to save from however little made a fraction of it against the evil day. These foreigners labor in their native lands with Little hope to encourage them; they are plundered on every hand by the State and the unscrupulous agents of the State. If they possess wealth they exhaust their ingenuity to conceal it, let they excite the cupidity of the tax gatherer. They know the way to prosperity, but the door of opportunity is shut against them. When these foreigners come to the United States they find the door of hope and opportunity opened wide to them and their children. They are protected by the laws in their right to labor and to accumulate as they will; and by acting on the principle of hard work and rigid economy, imbibed with their mothers' milk in their native lands, they rapidly follow the "way to prosperity" and to an honorable status in the land of their adoption. Not all of them do this, but by far a majority of them do. They rapidly grow rich by simply saving what native Americans squander on clothes, food and drink. A small colony of Italian in a nearby community familiar to the writer of this article, railroad laborers and junkmen for the most part, have acquired more real estate and developed more business interests of one sort and another in the past four years than have ten times as many Afro-Americans in the same community in the past forty years. The Italians had no more opportunity and they earned no more, but they made the most of their opportunity and moved something of what they earned, as they had been taught by hard experience and the Parallele of the Talents to do, for so we have often said before. It is not the dollar made but the dollar saved that means. We can open the door of opportunity to these foreigners but we cannot show them the way to prosperity. The Afro-American people can study to advantage and profit the industrious and thrifty habitats of the foreigners who live in their commissaries. There are not many厉害 in New York, comparatively speaking, but they have banks of their own and a prosperous daily newspaper; the name is true of a small colony of Philadelphia and of Germany. Even the daunted handful of Oblique in New York are to be found in all avenues of business effort, and have their banks and a daily newspaper. They are a positive influence, their熏陶, in the business and in simple because of how close, so the they are not understood, an Alaskan nurse is by the public. They are considered in all public services. They cover places on all branches of public service and are represented in all of the departments of the public services. They have their criminal and illegal elements of course, which are common to all men, but there are overweighted in the popular attention by the idolatry and thealty elements. "There is no reason why the Alaskan people should not be used in the manner. The whole matter, as it affects the Afro-American people, reminds the writer of a story he once heard when in Atlanta. The court-house at Athens, in the suburbs of Atlanta, is situated in the public square. The jail is on the lower floor. The citizen, in crossing the square, walk by the court-house and the prisoners usually look out on them through the grates of their calls. One morning a good pastor, going by, looked up and was surprised to see his best demon behind the hawk. "Wy, Er's Jones, wn't yo'丹is in da place?" "I can't nails' nuthin'," said the docon, easily. "Wy, man," said the pastor, "they can't keep you, in d'ree fur dun' nuthin'," "I know they can't, pastor, but they is do' it." Now, the excuse of this man is a common one among us. We remain poor, or we get into trouble, and straightway accuse the white people of keeping us down, of preventing us from making and saving money, or from living respectable lives. The trouble is in ourselves, and not in others; not in all of us, but in too many of us for the good standing of the race. Let us study the industrious and thrifty ways of the foreigners among us, and profit by them as much as possible. A Southern Black Stink Pot. Pref. W. H. Council president of the Agricultural and Mechanical College at Normal, Ala., is an Afro-American of very bright intelligence, who knows how to shape his words to please those who put bread in his mouth. He speaks often on the race question, sometimes in the Northern and Western States, but we have never read an address, or parts of an address, of his which was not so marred by false statement of fact and a subservient and apologetic stutter that we did not feel as if he should be soundly kicked. So habitually is he an offender against high and fair discussion that we have come invariably to, approach anything that he may as we approach a Chinese stink pot, and the result has usually justified our precaution. On this page of THE ACK today we reproduce some outgreaves by. Prof. Councilc to which we call the thoughtful consideration of our readers. What he says of the antipathy black men of white laborers from the North who settle in the Southern States is true, but it is equally true of Southern white laborers, especially in factory and mine work and most of the skilful trades, and almost to the same extent as the Northern and Western States. It is the matter of our exclusion from manual and skilled labor employments on account of race and color no one section has anything to boast of over another, all sections being governed in the main by the trade unions regulations, in the making of which it is a matter of record that Southern whites have forced their views in the face of a large Northern minority opposition in every trade convention. It is very rare indeed that any Southern white man has stood up in any of these conventions for a square deal for all men, regardless of race. Prof. Councilc knows this as well as we do, but while we condemn race proscription as practiced in all sections of the country, he would excuse the whites of the South and shoulder all the blame upon the whites of the North. Why? The Afro-Americans in the Northern and Western States who keep up a persistent fight against the injustice practiced on the race in the Southern States are, for the most part, Southern men born and educated, with the added advantage of being free from the atmosphere and the blighting prejudices which make Prof. Councill and men of his sort cowards and snakes and apologists. Moreover, we of the North protest against that injustice because we are made to suffer from it as well as our Southern brethren. In the Northern and Western States we have our troubles, and they are many and grievous to be borne; but they pale into practical inconsequence by the side of those which afflict our brethren in the South. And the contention that the people of the Northern and Western States complicate matters by condemning wrong and injustice as they prevail in the Southern States is the opinion of Southern white men, and in adopting it as his own Prof. Councill simply and basically plays to the Southern white gallery. We do not question his right to do so, and he will not question our right to regard him as of the nature of a Chinese stink pot for doing so. The contention is entirely false, and has sufficiently refuted by all history, especially by the history of our own country. If there had been no Northern and Western interference with slavery and the abuses which thrived upon it the chances are that Prof. Councill would still be a slave in fact as well as in soul and spirit, for that he has the soul and the spirit of a slave he has sufficiently demonstrated in acts and words. The writer of this article is a man born and educated in the South, and he thinks he know as much about Southern conditions as W. H. Councill, and he knows that he has the courage and fairness to state those conditions as they are, not in any spirit of malice and ill will, but in the end that "error may not prevail" and justice be eventually. Mr. Councill has not now, never had, and will never have the courage and fairness to do this. As the fourth of March approaches the office-helders quake and the office-reckers jubilate. One man's quest is another man's poison. And now the Pueblo Indians are beginning to offer an opportunity to live here on the Pueblo Plains. The first Afro-Americans indeed do not yet go to be showing for a chance in this quarantined, he does not, neither舍得 touch on anything. He is the most enthusiastic mortal in all covenants. And mankind, discontent, is the technocrat of human achievement, of human program. William Jennings Bryan, who can kick up more rumpus in a political party than a ball can in a china shop, is still building all of his energies to the task of re-keeping the Democratic party. "If there is nothing to re-organize Mr. Bryan should devote his bright intelligence to the task of creating a new Democratic party. The El Paso (Taxes) Are Light thinks that Tex. Aux knows a thing or two about conditions in the southern States. And we rather think that way ourselves, and it would be strange if we did not. SHOULD WEST AFRICANS EMBRACE ISLAMISM From the Lawn (West Africa) Weekly Herald No one who realizes the great feeling of unconscious which has seized upon the peoples of West Africa and pervades the whole country will fall to recognize the important and apparent fact that Mohammed is destined to exert a powerful influence and become a potent factor in shaping the future of West Africa. Under the Christian oppose of Europe, the religion of Islam adapts itself to dittoes and so produces no violation and disruption of the customs and habits of its converts. On the other hand, the civilized Christianity of Europe aims to disrupt and displace the customs of the pro-Christian peoples of Europe and interfere with the political, social and domestic system undermines and impairs everything which makes for life and health with a people. It is this difference mediation as compared with the Christianity of Europe; such preference arising from the rational and natural conviction that no religious teaching, whatever spiritual or religious, can be offered, can command itself where it jopearizes the primary consideration of life. Besides, the religion of Islam embodies that chief and vital principle of genuine Christianity gives practical reality to the faith, and the virtue of once a Moslem and you become a brother in every scene, irrespective of race or color. On the other hand the Christian religion, as exemplified in the life and teachings of Jesus Christ, does the doctrine in prosec but fails immanently when the test comes to invest it with any practical force. And so, while we bear a good deal of equality in South Africa, an amount for whites in South Africa is an amount for blacks in South Africa as regards the fate of the blacks in that country, who outnumber the whites by more than ten to one. It is not to be wooled at then, that the religion of Islam is enumerated, is making such phenomenal progress in West Africa, and acquiring a deep and strong hold upon the people. The process implies not only the assurance of unity and strength which is bound to stand the people in good stead. Only those who are wives are able to appreciate the effect which the present rapid world movements are calculated to pro- duce. The shock of these movements therefrom. The brushed throughout every part of the world, and even the pikones in the dense forest of this continent have not escaped the development in Europe given to men's minds in response to and the operation of a uniformly aggressive policy on the part of the great civilized nations must necessarily have some bearing on that policy; and the statemanship of the people must be kept in a state of apathic indifference still prevails, lacking lamentably a right conception of the situation. The changed conditions accrue a different line of policy from that of the previous century, and the consequent success for the imperial idea of ex- pansion which so largely obtains with the nations; and to that nation will accrue the greatest measure of success whose statesmen endure to regulate their policy to meet those conditions. Meanwhile Mohammedanism, as a great living force, is quietly and unostentiously, yet, rapidly and irreasibly, it has become a powerful force with it a power of social and political development, the congenial elements of which render its consolidation assured by yond any doubt. The intelligent native Mosleh process itself more and more daily, while the keenest interest, while to the masses of the population it offers the only solution of and rescue from a situation fraught with fear, suspense and consequences that threaten its existence, seems to be no doubt that in time, as the native of West Africa comes to realize more fully the peril of the situation, he more repudiate those rebellious teachings as he attempts to "improve" him off the face of the earth, and will as a people throw himself into the arms of Islam. This would possibly save salvation for him in more dire circumstances, it would imply a uplifting and a solidification of the people in one great public power possessing enormous power for cooperative effort. This result alone will be an encouragement to the adopt in of Mohammedanism by the natives of West Africa. The January "Southern Workman." The January number of the "Southern Workman" (published by the Hampton Institute Press) contains an important article on "Teaching Farming in the Phillip plane" by the Supervisor of Schools in the island of Cebu. By means of excellent illustrations a clear idea is given of the work of the Supervisor in the islands of the Pacific. Another illustrated paper describes the weaving of coverlets in the Tennessee, Mountains, and still another shows how the practical instructors can teach through Manual Training School of Washoe. Can his people at once for self-support. One of the most primitive tribes of Indians, in the world is described in an article on the Borovo of Brasil, while foreign life of a different sort is pictured in a dramatic story of the Bulgarian insurrection of 1896. The author is Pusolf. "Er-Governor Flacher of Uruguay makes a plea for the red man and the change of Indian Communism is notied officially, as is also the recent educational conformance in Norfolk. One of the addresses given at this meeting, published educational conformance in Norfolk, is by Dr. Mitchell of Blackwood College, is published in full in this the "Southern Workman." The implantation of a life nobly lived in the best habitat which any man can bequeath to humanity. It has been true in all ages that the built of mankind have been placed down in the soil and deprived of their powers of intelligence while the exceptionally good have devoted themselves to solitary advancement and apprehension of their personal interests. So far are those who have held devoted loyalty to their own and the general interests, who lived for others as well as for themselves, that they have been able to make an impact on the degree of the right hand. This is not failing, but our common human nature, but it is accrued with the conclusion that selflessness is the predominant feature. The few man who stood out in history as having lived, for others as well as for themselves, whose sympathies were, as comprehensive as mankind and who the betterment of the condition of society at large rather than the betterment of the selfish condition are not only the beacon lights to alight and noble living but they reden our common human nature from the selfishness of selfishness and consequent brutality. Highest in the roll of those who labored that the lot of gerrism might be beaten, is of course, the Divine Nazareth, who gave more abundantly. He must be instanced as the type of the unfaithman man, who has accordingly formed himself at variance with the times in which he lived, and who, in turn, has been martyred thus enlailed to the high places of power. Such man have necessarily been on the unpopular side of every movement to ameliorate the condition of the world. The type of this sort of man was Wendell Phillip, who was born to affluence and a position in society which placed the highest honors in the gift of his fellow-citizens. Dr. Crick Douglas, he was born in the purple, so to speak, born to dominate the masses of his fellow citizens by his incomparable gifts of intellect and soul and an eloquence that the masteres of Gloucus and Rowe, William Lloyd Garrison, belongs to this class, also, in the largest sense; he was a born reformer, out of joint with his times, who was a great supporter of the opinion of the whole Republic and to deep the seed which should fructify into the greatest of civil wars and the consequent emancipation of the whole race, which should "have a new birth of freedom." It is worth a great deal to any man to be born in the environment that surrounded VILE STATEMENTS-- FALSE CONCLUSIONS From an Address by W. H. Cornell. I do not fear Southern opposition half as much as I do the invasion of white Northern labor, which comes with its social prejudice, which comes often plead for the right to work. The color line was never carried upon brick walls, to the carpenter's bench, in all the other industries of the South, until Northern white labor carved it there. The colored men of the North make a great difference to the South alone and look to your own neglected opportunities and correct your own wrongs. You are driven from nearly every decent wage gaining position, whipped from the hacks and the drays, united against your face, labor unions against you, and sympathy of hitherto white friends slipping away from you. I appeal to the white men of the North to think more kindly of both black men and the South. Every bonest Negro heart is loyal and true to the South. We need and want the sympathy of every section of our country, but there is a kind of unfriendly maddling which in a hurry has led to Negro. We have strong men of both races in the South who are capable, and have the righteous inclination to fairly adjust the problems growing out of our new racial whites who come South as a disturbing element. They are hypocrites, staging one tune to the Negroes and another to the whites. They are many mistakes in our own social life which we as a new must correct and which we alone can correct. Our women and children are left unprotected by fishers; mothers and sisters are deprived, ignorant, or hard, who often leave home to live in the streets and criminals. The great majority of our boys are not in school, do not attend church, are growing up false, idiotic, ignorant, or hard, hardest, most ill, most unfortunate. The great majority almost alone, is fighting of the grandest battles in the streets of men with the cook pot, the wombboard, sowing seeds, brooding hands, crumb brush; she has the power to appropriate others, educate her daughter, or provide husband or an unworthy man. Mr. Baldwin, to be educated at Harvard, the best memory of learning in the public, and to have some of paternal blood, was a man of great influence and the State and his society; but it is worth more to mention that he devoted his life unceasingly to the public and the social world in such wise as to publicly the philanthropic efforts that he felt to share he turned over and ever again to that they multiplied themselves, almost magnificently against the time when the "human" came to join the business world, and the business of shade." It is well, high stakes devoidable that a man so burdened with business obligations as Mr. Baldwin was can only join so much of his development in the business world. Bedford being president of a great railroad system he was a director and trustee in eleven of the greatest financial corporations of all time, and of all other cities and associations of a scientific and social character. But over and above all of these his heart seemed to be most in Southern educational work, in the schools, in his apprentices in his apprentices for the betterment of the educational, moral and maternal condition of Southern black men as of Southern white men, and the schools, in his apprentices, with other good men, the Southern Education Board and the General Education Board. He was also interested in the work of the Armstrong Association and the Institute of the American committees of the board of Trustees of the Tuskegee Institute. There is no more beautiful chapter in the life of Mr. Baldwin than his entire devotion to Dr. Booker T. Washington and his interest in the work of the Tuskegee Institute. Between the two men was a friendship, and it is possible that Dr. Washington never had a more devoted and helpful friend and advisor. Mr. Baldwin entered no discreetly into the life and work of the students of Tuskegee that he was taught with unquestioned by the officians and student body of the Institute. Mr. Baldwin, unlike many other Northern philanthropist, believed not only in educating the head, heart and hand of the poor, but also in opening the door of opportunity for them in the industrial and business avenues controlled by him or in which he had a voice. He made his name by being called Collee P. H. Huntington, who knew made ability to perform certain work and not color the test for employment. And in 1897, the time is even now, and will be even more so in the future, when the opportunity to earn a dollar will be more available than before, and the opportunity to earn an education the better to be prepared to earn the dollar. Mr. Baldwin perceived this fact very clearly. The New York Evening Post has very "In many respects a typical New Englander, Mr. Baldwin had the sensitive New England conscience with none of its it would be hard to find. No creed, no color, and no race ever affected, his judgment or debarred anyone from his hospital, and it would be impossible for him to understand the striving of men of the handicapped races as could few others, and to become so useful offender in a case containing representative men of the South, that he to see the need of an educational revival in the South. Catering to none of the familiar Southern prejudices, belief that the South must forever be an inferior person, condemned to hew wood and draw water, Mr. Baldwin was yet able to perform some of the tasks of the South, not because of a readiness to compromise, but by reason of his tact and his familiarity with every situation. Tuckeee and Hampton; and similar schools to him can never be repaid. His share in the establishment of the General Hospital was also held in the educational unification of his true day be recognized at its true value." I close this tribute of love and admiration for the man, and in measuring the strength of the African people in the Afro-American people in particular have sustained in the death of Mr. Baldwin, I close it as I began. The inspiration which any man can be brought to positiv THREE GREATEST MEN IN THE UNITED STATES From the Boston Daily Adventurer From the nation today, Mr. Merloy, John Merloy, the noted English statesman, after his visit to this country told a friend that the three greatest men he had met in the United States were Theodore Roosevelt, Booker Washington and C. W. Elliot. This will not make Morley popular in the South, but one can see easily enough that Mr. Morley has reason enough for his judgment. The President is the big force in American politics to day. The big pressure is that we suppressed energy is hunting for energy and is going to make the history of American politics in the next four years. Booker Washington will make history in the solution of the race problem of this country, by making it work be worked out. Pres. Elliot makes military by sending into every field of work young men who carry out the training he given them; and also the Harvard president, by the force of his own personality, impresses him into touch with him—so that Dr. Elliot is constantly putting big ideas into circulation among all classes of Americans, until they work out into National movements that affect all the people. No dynamic power that drives resist easily out of the office of the president of Harvard college. White Rose Notes The drama, "Country Kid," was the greatest success yet achieved by the young people of the White Rose Home for working girls, and kept the audience roaring with laughter from start to finish. The entire cast was in such good form that to pick any one out for special mention is difficult. The attendance at the regular meetings and classes of the Home during the three months ending Dec. 31 was 1938. If we were to attend the meetings and classes the attendance reaches 1719. The express which were not during this time were $78.90. More than 160 pieces of clothing were given out, and $78.10 for relief. The same time this week for the Home Study Class now being made up. The expo will extend to May. And first. "What I say unto you I my wife all, and what need I to be told over and over again—develop as far as possible the self respecting element among the people of your state. This must be done by静静, by industry and economy, by steady industry and honest life are sure in the end to gain recognition. Third: The colored people of intelligence should stand rights, so far as can be done without too much effort, all in order to maintain the rights which link their equal civil rights. They cannot forcibly claim equal privileges where laws forbid it, but just so far as the letter of the law allows they should be allowed to vote, and they should press the matter that they secure honest registration. Every Negro that has the right to vote should seek the privilege of voting, and should be allowed to vote, tax or the trouble of securing his privilege. If his legal rights are denied him he should repent the demand at every opportunity, and use all his influence to see that the laws should take pains at all local elections, so far as may be, to vote for the very best best man and let it be sure that he is independent in such matters. In such circumstances he should be afraid to vote for a man of his party. Fourth: Negroes should be particularly careful to be obedient to the law. I can imagine nothing more shocking than that of one of their own race. It justifies all lynching. All violence is in be so sterile forbidden. The only cause that would justify a Negro using violence are those men, the men, such as the protection of his own life or the honor of his women. But after all that can be said the substance of it is character. If the white people of the South all had character and not the best white men, so be no trouble. It is the vulgar, drunken, worthless, ignorant white men and the same sort of colored men that make the fun, the best white men in the South, the best white men in the South, have not any too much courage of their opinions, but they are a growing element, it is the loud mouthed, noty Negroes who have never learned the quiet restraint of Negroes toughest the people. Claim your rights at a suitable opportunity and deserve them. THE "INDEPENDENT" WITH US. It Also Opposes Reduction of Southern Representation. From the Independent Dr. Crum Confirmed. From the New York World St. David's P. E. Church Large congregations gathered at St. David's P. E. Church on last Sunday. At the morning service Rev. H. M. Joseph of London delivered an almsgiving on sermon "The Wisdom of the Wise Men." At the evening service Rev. H. W. Johnson, formerly professor of theology at Bishop Payne's Divinity School. The vowed chair rendered a beautiful program. On next Sunday the university ministry service at 2:30 p. m. At 8 p. m. will occur the regular monthly vaper service and sermon. I was a passenger on a Washington airplane on our other day. When I sat down I found myself in company with a Chinese man and a Japanese leasing agent. We pointed him for about a block of the terminal land, to my account, took an airplane, who probably bad on an airplane to see to see the Great White Shark and in the crusade of destroying whiskey by the limbbless person. Then we sat, the Indian openly staring at men, the Chinese and Japanese shooting dry planes at the Indian and the white man, the Indian and the Japanese, in his heart. The Indian man was wondering why and popular functions were neglected the follower of Confucius, the son of Nguyen and myself in the white man's mind, to try to signify in his own mind why the Indian and not regarded as the white man in this country, while the white man, smiling and stroking his knee, was supremely satirized, thought that he was by every consideration, away above the rest of us. **If then all of us except the couple looked at the white man, now pliably disgusted we apparently angry. The Indian felt faint and scared. The Japanese Jap felt infinitely interested and looked in every line of his face, the Chihuahua felt scared, judging from the bulging of his almond eye, and I—well somehow I felt so good that I jumped off the car and walked to the door. He always told me what to take to clear up my throat when I was in Washington.** The January "Voices of the Negro." The current issue of the 'Voice of the Negro' is on the whole, the best yet published. The contents have been planned with much intelligence. A number of portraits of illustrious friends of the Afro Americanimate the page. The proof reading is almost impersonal. The general improvement extends even to editorial columns, whose usual note verbosity is noticeably molested. This reform has been accomplished chiefly by the addition of new words which are new almost as scores as they were formerly redundant. There is scope, however, for further improvement. In the 'Year', for instance, occurs the most preciate anti-climax ever printed. The new century has just stopped and taken us back to the 1900s. We should ask our leaders 1906. Mrs. Mary Church Terrell contribute an article on "Samuel Coleridge Taylor," who would be more interesting than the subject. He would be more interesting than the subject. An interesting feature is a symposium, "Messages to the Nero Race, in which three Southern white militants, Independent, Dr. W. R. B. Dulois, Prof. Kelly Miller, and Prof. W. H. Courcel participate, Dr. DuBois sits up the dry bones by speaking of "an aroused race of men who are not so long in no longer possible for any Nero to dare tell an American audience that Negroes ought not to vote until they are perfect, cars until they own friends, or that Nero ought not to go to college until they are rich." He said that we need "more courage, more patience, less cowardice and more confidence," Prof. Miller aspires his specialty, straddling. The first installment of "The Welding of the Link," a story by "Garden Golliwog," promises very interesting content worth this month many times its price. President Stands Pat Special Correspondent of the Act WASHINGTON, D. C. JAN. 9 - Booker T. Washington, of Tuskegee, spent some hours in Washington recently seeing his friend. In the evening he was with President Roosevelt for an hour and a half discussing matters bearing upon the interests of the race in this country. Some have expressed the fear that the President is likely to change his policy toward the Afro-Americans, but no one who knows him need to have any fear at this point. The President understands thoroughly that the whole country has endorsed his policy if it is endorsed that of no other President Washington, and he is not likely to fly the track at this late date.
