AUTOS VS. "JIM CROW" CARS FOUR MACHINES BOUGHT TO CONVEY NASHVILLE AFRO-AMERICANS. R. H. Boyd and Rev. C. H. Parrish Agents of Union Transportation Company — Enterprising Movement in Campaign Against Separate Street Cars — Nashville Afro-American Have New Seventy Wagons in Use and With Autos Will Believe Total Proscribed Population — The Nashville Clarion on Debt Owed Rich, Public-spirited Men Like Mr. Boyd. Four large automobiles were purchased here on September 12 by R. H. Boyd, president of the Penny Savings Bank of Nashville, Tenn., for use in a new street line there for Afro-Americans. A company, recently incorporated there as the Union Transportation company, with a capital of $25,000, is organized and owned by Afro-Americans, and will be run in the interest of Afro-Americans, in self- protection against the treatment which they receive on the street railways in the city, where they are permitted only to sit in certain separate seats, and where conductors have power of police to remove them, even from those seats, if they see fit. The Rev. Mr. C. H. Parrish, of Louisville, Ky., an Afro-American educator, and a stockholder in the new company, said: "The law granting the conductors of the street railways power of police to remove passengers from any seat in the car, and to arrest whoever refuses, was passed several months ago. It is worded to apply both to the blacks and the whites, but it is really directed only against the blacks, and since it was passed, several Negroes have been arrested for refusing to obey the conductors. As a result, the receipts in fares have fallen off $500 a week since the law was passed. The Negroes immediately organized a company of their own, and began by using wagons. They found that they owned among themselves seventy vehicles which they could use for the purpose." The enterprise has prospered, and yesterday I went with Mr. Boyd to purchase four large steam automobiles, which will be run in place of cars. The purpose of the company is to give the Natives of Nashville equal rights with the whites as passengers. Only God and ourselves know what we have to submit to sometimes. It is not our purpose to exclude the whites, and as automobiles are something of a novelty in Nashville, we expect that the whites will patronize our company." The Nashville Clarion, an Afro-American journal which has bravely kept in the front in the fight against Nashville's "Jam Crow" street cars, points out the debt with the poorer people owe to the promoters of the Union Transportation The systems of Nashville should be prepared for the Union Transportation company because of the prompt manner in which it has come to their relief. They certainly need deliverance from some serious threat to the impiances of the Jim Crow streetcar system. It required an amount of thousands of dollars to furnish this relief. The investment of this large sum was in the nature of an experiment. Success was it that the large shareholder of the Union Transportation company evidently made up their minds to do missionary work if it were in order to relieve their people. The small shareholders in this company were the ones who had the skills and the sense of emphasis, we must have special attention to the men who made their money by the hundreds and thousands, in order to relieve them and we are endeavoring to help the people whom they are servicing accordingly grateful to the process of this transportation scheme. When the automobiles arrive every New York town should take a ride on one dollar for the first ride, in a nickel. This would give the an additional forty thousand dollars with which to do its business. It would charge the obligations now pending it and put twenty more motor on the streets of this city. The Curtion feels that it should insist that New York who does not hold stock in the industry make a free offering of dollars and the government who have come to their rescue so far. The motor cars are an absolute security. Our people must have method of conveyance to and from the city. The Jim Crow law is an eternal distance. It was never intended by the business for any other purpose than to hustle, degrade and stigmatize the Negro. Happily, the Negroes in Nashville have enough manhood and culture, society and self-respect to defeat this purpose by leaving the corner seats in these vacant. A few people in humble circumstances who are not able to buy tickets or conveyance have been in some compelled to ride. These be as in lieu of the humble laboring men and in affairs with the need of labor, distances have been too in some cases for them to understory to walk. It is to these humble tolls those men who must necessarily ride public conveyance, that the corporation company is a relief. It will be no question about the Ne- patronizing them. There is not a will of doubt in our minds that the white Jim Crow' shack will be left as was the famous deserted vil- charles Dickens' story. It is to be said to the credit of the man in Nashville that they have man- womanhood which prompts an insult and to protest an injury. Their protestations that the mob should know they are not of anarchy or revenge they make any threatening actions. They feel that salvation a man's own efforts; that the comfort of a race are preserved from diligence. For that reason it is needed to make convoyances --- McGraw Hill Address Monitor League Addresses Monitor League of the Monitor League on September 12, at their 217 West 61st street, the was treated to an address by Mrs. Grennin.

Quigg in now, as he has consistently been before, opposed to the policy of tying up the local Republican organization with any old thing in the shape of an opponent of Tammany; and is particularly averse to the alliance of the Republican party with Mr. Hearst's Municipal Ownership league. In an interview last week with The Sun, Mr. Quigg declared his unalterable opposition to this alliance: "It is doubtful whether the Republican voters of New York city are ready to have their organization become the political agent of socialism. So long as there was a possibility of uniting the Tammany opposition on lines familiar to the Republican party it was the plain duty of the county committee authorities to promote that interest, but they would better not get too far away from their Republican moorings. clear-headed among its exponents, may be admitted to have many attractive phases; and, of course, everybody will say that a municipality should be at all times for the profit of its treasury and the benefit of its population in control of the use of its highways; but the Republican party is full of men who have not yet abandoned the old-fashioned American idea that these governments of ours, whatever their scope, were instituted to instruct the nation, as Jefferson put it, that "the government should govern the least, or, to give the same idea another expression, that the government is mainly a policeman and as little as possible a patron. "It is the first business of a political organization so to conduct party affairs as to poll its full party strength and preserve its party integrity. It is not authorized to do much experimenting. Republican sentiment is naturally conservative, and it cherishes two ingrained prejudices which would render ineffectual its indorsement of a municipal ticket supposed to represent the socialistic idea. The first is the notion that the government, so far from competing with its business enterprises, should leave every business establishment, opportunities and capacities hindering him only when he contravenes the law. The other is a dread of increasing the governmental establishment. When New York has entered union municipal operation Tammany Hall will be more impregnable than Gibbital." RACE ISSUE IN RICHMOND STRIKE. White Printers Allege Attempt to Fill Their Places With Afro-Americans. Richmond, Va., September 18.—A strike is on with the white printers employed in the job offices of Richmond. The printers are demanding an eight-hour day with nine hours' pay. This the bosses have refused, and hence the strike. An interesting feature of the strike is that several of the big firms have been trying to secure the services of several of the printers in Afro-American plants here. This leaked out, and the union was trying to make capital out of it and create sympathy for the strikers by stirring up the race issue. The bosses at once gave out a statement that the Afro-American printers on The St. Luke Herald had offered their services, but the tender had been declined with thanks, as they were not seeking colored men to break the strike. The men on The Herald say they offered their services independently of their paper, thinking to put in work at night for the other firms, which would be profitable to them individually. Their statement absolves the management of The Herald from any participation in the controversy. It was also said that John Mitchell, Jr., editor of the Planet, had made offers of help to the boss firms, but Editor Mitchell at once put a quietus on the report by appearing before the union at its meeting Thursday morning, where he made the following statement, which appeared in an afternoon paper: "John Mitchell, Jr., the proprietor of the Planet, the colored newspaper, appeared at the union meeting and reported that an effort had been made by a dum whose printers had quit for him to do some composition for them. He had declined to do so, he said, and he was in trouble. He explained that one of his, machining men, had union supplied him with a man to help get his paper out. "I am a union man," said Mitchell, and if there was a union of colored printers my men would be able to union supply him to see the right prevail. I ask you to give me a man for a few days. He will get eight hours and will receive the pay called for by the union. "A machine operator, a good one, said he was willing to help out under the circumstance that he was loudly cheered as he volunteered." While there is no strike in the colored offices, yet the strike materially affects the working of these offices. The patronage which they receive is no great that they are forced to go to the white job offices to turn out some of their work. As long as the strike is on they will be handicapped. ENGLEWOOD CHURCHES ASTIR. Exciting Revival, Sacred Concert and Many Addresses Edify the Inhabitants. ENOLEWOOD, September 18.—A very excitable revival is in progress at the First Baptist church. Several conversions have been reported. The attendance at the concert at Shiloh A. M. E. Zion church last Thursday night was small, but the program was very interesting. The Bethany Presbyterian Sunday school hold a most interesting session last Sabbath. The school was addressed by Mr. Christi, the township secretary. The Christian endower was conducted by Edward N. Laws. The topic, "A Whole sale Surrender," was interestingly discussed by the members. Rev. C. H. Jenkins preached a doctrinal sermon on "The Resurrection" at the evening service. R. H. Rutherford, president of the National Benefit Association, addressed the citizens at the chapel on September 12 on the benefits of his association. After the address refreshments were served by Ed. N. Laws, the agent for the association, assisted by the Queen Esther circle. Wedding bells will begin to ring next An Afro-American Journal of News and Opinion. PROFESSOR JAMES M. GREGORY. TO TEST N. J. CIVIL RIGHTS LAW. Justice Scotland Institutes Suit Against Olympic Park. NEWARK, September 18.—In the court of common pleas of this county, a test case has been instituted against the proprietors of Olympic park by Justice Scotland and Revs. H. P. Anderson and John W. Freeman, through their attorneys, Messrs. George A. Douglas and Alfred B. Cosey. The suit is a culmination of repeated denials to Afro-American citizens of their civil rights by the management of the park. The exclusion of Afro-American patrons from places of public amusement in this State is guaranteed by statutory laws in the amended act of 1894, to the effect that no persons of good character shall be denied the right of admission to places of public amusement by land or by water on account of their race, color or previous condition of good character. The purpose for such discriminations under the Civil Rights act is $300 and costs or imprisonment. In the declaration of the suit, Mr. Scotland has set forth that in company with the two other gentlemen above named, he was intercepted by one of the hired agents of the park who informed them that because of their color they would not be admitted to the park and otherwise intimidated their progress. After the ticket box was reached Mr. Scotland offered to purchase three tickets of admission at 10 cents each, and was told the tickets were $1 each. After some remonstrances the complainant offered to purchase one ticket for $1, but was told by the agent who had stopped the trio that they would have to pay $10 for each ticket, and used abusive and insulting language. The case is being watched with great interest, and the case will in the lower court. For an appeal the judge has appointed their willingness to take it to the supreme court of the United States for a Federal decision. The lecture term of the Forum will begin on October 1, 1971 which time it is expected that consular Wilford H. Smith of New York will deliver the opening address. During the recent heated primary contest for senatorial honors of Hon. Eyrett Colby against the regular county Republican organization, Mr. Leroy Batter, a dental student, took a prominent part in the struggle as a junior manager of the Collyfaction's headquarters.

Peterson, of Maryland, and Messrs. W. O. Murphy and A. D. Hamilton, of New York, to make brief addresses, congratulating the colored people upon the broadening of their activities, as evidenced by the growth of the Y. M. C. A. work in different cities.

Star Concert at Mt. Olivet Church. The star concert given at Mt. Olivet Baptist church, West 32nd street, Thursday night, September 14, was a rare treat. Much revered was expressed at the inability of Mr. Harry Bunleigh to appear. Mime Marie Jackson Stuart in her most dramatic rendition of the *Charles Race* and *The Boots Story*, with the Chieftain *Charles Boots*, with the house apel-bound, *Miss Mamie Boyd* and *Miss Reppo*, came in for their share of appreciation. "ABYSSINIA" MAY NOT APPEAR. Reported Disagreement Between Will- iams and Walker and Dochattader. There is a report that "Abbessinia," the magnificent new play in which Williams and Walker were to star this season, will be delayed and perhaps may not be produced at all. Williams and Walker were to be managed this season by Low Dochstader, and got together a $30,000 production, scouring the country for the best Afro-American play. Dochstader has decided to give out $12,000, and for this sum, it is said, Williams and Walker refuse to take the show out. SUICIDE IN NYACK. Mrs. W. W.

Zion church, who preached in the afternoon, and Miss Hall, the lady evangelist, who preached in the evening. The result was very satisfactory to pastor, trustees and people. SUCCUMBED TO APOPLEXY. Then Abram L. Johnson's Sister Died of the Shock. NEWARK, N. J., September 18.—Mr. Abram L. Johnson, an old citizen of this city, fell from an attack of anpoplexy on his way home from the St. James' church on Thursday evening last. He was removed to the city hospital and died on Monday.

About 10 years ago she was brought to Brooklyn and placed in that noble institution for the aged, where she was nicely cared for and received marked attention. On Monday last the body was taken to Stonington for interment in the family plot. Chief Lee in the Saddle. F. B. Lee has been elected chief of the United Colored Democracy. Age. One of the most successful picnics of the season was that given by St. Philip's Young Men's Guild at Suller's Harlem River Park on Friday evening. September 15. Ideal weather conditions prevailed, and nothing occurred to mar the pleasure of the record-breaking through which gathered.

MINISTER POWELL MAY QUIT. Says He's Awfully Third of' Dodging Having Bullets. PHILADELPHIA, September 13.—William F. Powell, Minister Plenipotentiary and Envoy Extraordinary to Haytil and Santo Domingo, announced in Camden to-day that he will probably tender his resignation to the State Department in a week or so. He seems to be weary of dodging the bullets of revolutionists who occasionally make things interesting in the Negro republic. For the past two months Minister Powell has been among Camden friends. He will return to Port-au-Prince in a few days, he said to-day, but before his departure may formally notify the Washington authorities of his intention of giving up his hazardous post. He declares he will only remain in Haytil until his successor is appointed and assumes office. "During my eight years' experience as Minister to Haytil I have witnessed about fifteen revolutions." Mr. Powell said today. "I have had several narrow escapes during the uprising of the natives. On several occasions I nearly became the mark for stray bullets. I am afraid the next time one of these bits of lead might find its mark. I have not yet presented my resignation to President Roosevelt, and if I do it may not be accepted. In such event it will be a question for later consideration." Minister Powell was, previous to his appointment, one of the supervising principals of Camden's public schools. ELIZABETH, N. J., September 15. William Francis Powell, United States Minister to Haiti, is not going to resign, but will sail for Port-au-Prince and go back to his post as soon as his short leave of absence expires. His denial that he intended to resign and a statement that he had been misquoted recently in departures from Camden, where he is spending a vacation, were contained in a letter to United States Senator John Kean which was received to-day. ALTIMORE REPUDIATES GORMAN. Victory in Democratic Primaries for Opponents of Diffranchisement Scheme. HALSTON, Md., September 18.—In the Democratic primaries held here today to name candidates for the legislature, Senator Gorman's diffranchising amendment received a severe setback and the Democratic machine was derailed, by the defeat of a number of organization candidates in the heads of rivals who made their fights in opposition to the amendment. In the Third word, for instance, William Garland, who is popular with the Poles, Bolequians and other foreign elements, defeated Andrew Burns, the machine's man. Garland made his fight by using a machine, which is againstismagic victory is considered significant as indicating the foreign element's hostility to Gorman's disfranchisement scheme. U. S. ARMY DOORS CLOSED. No More Afro-Americans Wanted, Recruiting Agents Are Instructed. A special dispatch to The New York Times from Austin, Tex., states that Captain George H. Spencer, who has charge of the recruiting stations in that city, has notified the recruiting officers to assist no more Afro-Americans for the United States army. The pretext for this measure is the assertion that the Afro-American regiments are full, owing to the large number of Afro-Americans who have been enlisting during several years. Rey, Henderson Announces Formation a League to Demand Offices. At her service in the Bedford A. M. E. church, in West Twenty-fifth street, last Sunday night, the pastor, Rey, T. Wellington Henderson, urged his congregation to become a factor in the coming Mayoral contest, and announced the formation of a society among the Afro-American voters called the Colored Men's Municipal Association, Rey, Henderson said: "In the past we have done our full share of voting, but have we had any share in administering the affairs after election? In Chicago there are between two and three hundred colored policemen, in Philadelphia nearly two hundred, while in New York we have not one. "Why is it that only Irishmen and other foreigners are allowed to police the streets here? It is because we do not demand our share of the offices. We must put a stop to that. We must tell the parties that ask for our votes that simply giving a few leaders a dollar or two will not satisfy us, and that hereafter we are going to vote for only such men as will recognize us after they are elected." SURPRISED BY HER HUSBAND. Mrs. F. Stevens, Jr., Given a Party and a Diamond Pin. Browns YONKENS, September 18.—On last Wednesday evening Mrs. F.

ASK AID FOR SUFFERERS. YELLOW FIER QUARANTINE AT VICKSBURG CAUSES DISTRIB. Prominent Citizens Beg Assistance for Laborers and Servants Cooped in City Without Employment or Means of Subsistence — Employers Have Fled, Business Is Closed Down and It means Death to Try to Get Out to Cotton Fields—Cotton Crop Can not Be Harvested or Brought to Market —The Situation Calamitown. THE AGE has been requested to publish the following appeal from representative and trustworthy citizens of Mississippi in behalf of those Afro-American citizens who have been reduced to distress by the yellow fever quarantine at Vicksburge: "VICKSBURG, Miss., September 18.—Vicksburg, with 22,000 inhabitants, about 12,000 of whom are Afro-Americans, mostly belonging to the working class, is locked up in a quarantine. Large numbers of her colored population are engaged in domestic service, and a still larger number depend for a livelihood upon work on farms in the vicinity of this city. For fifteen days this city has been and for the next forty days certainly will be surrounded by quarantine Guards who allow no one to pass out. The only way to get out of the city now is on a through train with a ticket as far North as Chicago. The attempt to stop at any Mississippi point would, in many instances, mean death. "The large numbers of the people who employ servants left some time ago. Many of the enterprises have had to shut down on account of the fact that the people who are engaged in running them have left the city. The cotton fields in which these laborers usually make their living in the fall and winter are waiting for them, but it is death to attempt to get out to them. A very serious situation confronts more than one-half of the laboring classes in the city and its environments. Local effort has been largely taxed in employing them to clean up, oil and furnish, and little or nothing can be expected, except from abroad. The cotton upon which all life depends cannot be harvested or brought to market and thus one calamity has brought another. "We appeal to you to do what you can to assist these fortunate. The members of the committee naged below, composed of representative men in all walks of life, including all the fraternities and denominations, give personal assurance that every cent contributed will be devoted to the relief of distress, and all contributions will be publicly acknowledged through the press of the country. Your contributions can be sent to Mr. H. L. Slaughter, who is the treasurer of the committee.

THE ROCKY RIDGE IS THE BORDENTOWN INDUSTRIAL JUDGING BY ITS PAST. Its Growth in Ten Years Under Principal James M. Gregory Phenomenal—Its Lovely and Subtle Stir—Impiring Connection With Notable, Such as Joseph Bonagente, Parcel, Clay and Webster—Elegant Stress on Indebted and Littary Boundaries—Benefficient Briendship of Gov.

If one should take a steamer at Tenton and travel six or seven miles down the picturesque Delaware, as the vessel rounded the bend just above Bostown town, he would suddenly enter the wide expanse of water a bluff rising high above the river cowning, its highest point among the giant trees a magnificent brick building constructed, in the simple but graceful colonial style. This is the Bordentown Industrial school's new administration building, containing recitation rooms, dining rooms, office and chapel, with modern equipment throughout. A little to the left he would see the spacious dormitory, for girls which in now being thoroughly renovated, newly papered and floored and fitted for steam boat. Still further to the left is Stewart-cottage, the boys' dormitory, a beautiful granny slope. It also is being repaired and given a modern equipment. This is the site and these are the buildings of the Bordestown Industrial school. The location is renowned far and near for its natural beauty and healthfulness. The site is the envy of several well-known schools and of some who desired the place for a residence. Indeed, at the time of the purchase of the estate, one who was interested in a famous school was ready to outbid what the State was willing to give and was only restrained by his interest in the Industrial school and his close relations with those in control. The beauty of location is not surprising when it is known that grounds comprise the famous Harnell House, the home of the Admiral Stewart, the Commander of the Irossia or Constitution. With ample means, he selected the most favorable spot on the Delaware river. Here, too, lived his daughter, Mrs. Dolia Parnell, mother of the famous Irish leader. In the mansion were entertained Joseph Bonaparte, the regal exile in Bordentown, Henry Clay, Daniel Webster and other famous men. So the estate is rich and inspiring in its associations. The school was started as a private institution, but is now under the supervision of the State board of education, and under the immediate direction of a special committee of that body. In its early years the school was an appropriation of $3,000 from the State, but largely through the efforts of Gov. Edward C. Stokes, then State Senator, this appropriation was increased to $5,000 and then to $6,000. He was the champion of the school in the Senate and BORI in combination with Senator Biomedical H. Munch, introduced that legislation which resulted in the participation of the state and the creation of the administration building. The school, of course, is essentially industrial, it being the equipment to give every graduate a trade which will be practically used in the home or as a profession. For the boys are the course in carpentry and a manufacture. For the former branch there is a well equipped shop, and practical experience is given in repairing the buildings. During the coming winter it is expected that the boys will commence the erection of an industrial, building. The two hundred and twenty-five acres of fertile soil give unsurpassed facilities for practical instruction in agriculture. This year the authorities propose to utilize these splendid fields with greater effect than formerly. It has been the policy of the school to perfect one department at a CONNECTICUT MASONS MEETING. Fine Reception in Feature-Wm. J. Hargett Again Grand Master. New Haven, September 18—The Windows' Son bodge, Ancient Free and Accepted Masons, hold a reception and promounce at Music hall last Tuesday evening in celebration of the 324 annual session of the most worshipful grand bodge of the State of Connecticut. In spite of the unpopulous weather the attendance was large. The entertainment opened with a brief timely address by the grand master, W. J. Hargett; this was followed by a fine exhibition drill by St. Paul's commandery, No. 9, K. T. of New Haven. The grand march preceded the dance, with the grand master and Mrs. William J. Hargett in the van, followed by one hundred couples. The dance was on and continued till 2 g. n. The adult netted over one banned dollars, there from all parts of the State and accepted from New York State. They were in session two days, and were fed at Monsieur temple and entertained at the homes of the boothen. Willing J. were relected grand master.

It is recognized that without thorough literacy training, the pupils would be poorly trained for any line of work. Hence instruction in the English language and literature, mathematics and the sciences is given. Where a pupil shows aptitude there is sample opportunity for advanced work under the competent corps of teachers. ent principal was appointed and herdition now. In 1880 the school was cated on a back street in Bordentown occupying three unvisiting frames with contracted book yards. They were about 8 or 9 pupils and a teacher. Now, an assured school occupies a manufacured cottage 225 acres, has three fine buildings. A few weeks ago there was received at the school an elaborately engraved certificate from the Superior Jury of Awards at the World's Fair, St. Louis, stating that the institution had been awarded a bronze medal for the excellence of its exhibit at the fair. The work is now on view at the State House, Trenton, N. J. This is sample evidence of the high character of work done at the Bordentown school. The literary, social, athletic and religious organizations of the school are encouraged. It has been found beneficial to permit a limited amount of social intercourse among the young folks. The extensive grounds give every facility for exercise and athletic contests. When the weather permits the boys are instructed in military tactics. In so far as possible, the students are subject to military discipline and are required to wear the school military uniform. The institution, while not denominational, is distinctly Christian. Above all, the school management endeavors to develop in the students RDENTOWN ADMINISTRATION BUILD BORDENTOWN ADMINISTRATION BUILDING socialization is required that character is the first Negro of all living success. Consistently, identity there is a constant care that honesty, trustfulness, pride, industry, in show, most daily high ideals of right living are included. In fact the sympathetic discipline of the school is equivalent to home training as a gave. In fact the graduates of the school who have become teachers of the school who have become carpenters, dressmakers and wives show the high qualities of heart and mind and with them have been fostered in this institution. It therefore they have invariably become good citizens with desired purposes. In the early years of the school there were Zone who were skeptical of the school of such an institution in the North, the school but the rapid growth and the increasing in support show the egregiousness of this York position. The Industrial school has always been crowded to its utmost capacity. Last year there were over a hundred changes in attendance. More and more much Mrs. Ain Moore and daughter Mrs. John Henson have returned home after a lengthy visit with her daughter, Mrs. Alice Rhoe of Providence. Mr. Henson from Saratoga joined his wife here and they will pass the Matur- nage with her sister, Mrs. Wendy Ward of Kentucky. If things prove favorable their intentions are to make this their per- manent home. ALSO REV. GRANDISON ON "SAMMIE."

In 1858 the school was located on a bank street in Bordermann, occupying three univinishing frame building with contracted book yards. There were about 8 or 9 pupils and a few teachers. Now, as noted above, the school occupies a magnificent estate of 255 acres, has three fine buildings, over one hundred pupils and a large corps of teachers. But, best of all, it has risen to a position of density in the school system of the State. The signal prompt in the past points most strongly to increasing success in the future. It is almost needless to say that the success of the institution is largely due to the principal, Prof. James M. Gregory, and to the preceptress, his wife. For nearly ten years both have labored unintently and patiently with a self-sacrificing spirit to build up the school. For years struggling with a poor equipment and inadequate funds, they are being rewarded by the provision of amplifier facilities and by a brighter outlook. Prof. Gregory is widely known as an educator. All his life has been devoted to his profession. For twenty years he was professor of Latin at Howard University and for a number of years was a professor of the American District of Columbia. He founded the American Association of Educators of Colored Youth, which for so long was a LDING. passed away in the education of the Navy, and for his years was a president. With this wide professional experience, he is well intended for the management of this new important institution. Mrs. Gregory has shown that qualities as presenters. The conduct of the girls, their absolute discipline, yet affection for her, certify to her strong meditatively control. The principal and preceptors have been made by an earnest and capable corps of teachers. It is confidently expected that the 20th of September, 2015, will usher in the most successful year in the history of the school. Of courses the applications are mostly from New Jersey, yet the students of neighboring States show an increasing desire to enter. New York has always sent a large contingency and this year will probably be no exception. The old pupils will find in the changes in the buildings and grounds much to surprise and please them.

The librarians are the only ones in the Vault. You are the only one in the your future husband, with age and date of marriage, and tell whether the one you love is true or false. Reader, do you ever notice that some people seem to have good luck all the time and no matter what they do they seem to prosper, while others, yourself and others, seem to be in trouble, long and no matter how hard they try, they find at the end of the year they are no better off than when they started? This Is because they have not consulted the right Medium, while the successful people in all probabilities have been to one of the genuine mediums and obtained advice. If you are unsuccessful in business, have bad luck, things go wrong with you, then you should have Lady Gaga's help and Mme. ZARRETTA. They stand at the head of their profession. In test they tell your mother's full name before marriage, the names of all your family, their ages and description, the name and business of your present husband, the name of your next if you are to have one, the name of your present wife on you, the name of your future husband, and the day, month and year of your marriage, how many children you have or will have; whether your present sweetheart will be true to you and if he will marry you; when you will have one and his naughty business and date of acquaintance. All your failure will be told in an honest, clear and plain manner and in a dead trance. Mothers should know the success of their husbands and children, young ladies should know about their sweethearts, or intended husband. Do not keep company, marry or go into business until you know all, do not let silly religious scruples prevent your consulting. There are some persons who believe that there is no truth to be gained from consulting a Medium, but such beliefs are contrary to the teachings of such a discrimination that such a inclusion can be reached. It is not everyone who places himself or herself as a medium that can stand the test of what he or she claims. And a person of an inquiring mind may ask the reason why. It is simply that these advertisers do not take the trouble to study human nature so they do not spend their time in a museum or a museum art of pharaohology and André branches that will have a tendency to make the pathway to the road of the business clear and devoid of all obstacles. To get the secret out of a person by unplastic and pliable means in the art must be many untreated Mediums, but to take hold of the hand and gain control of the mind thereby is a matter of impossibility to most of them.

Special Correspondence of The Am. Boston, Mass., September 16.—We have noticed, we cannot say with surprise, the hulabaloo in certain quaters' which has been kicked up relative to Mr. Oswald Garrison Villard's paper on the naval problem in the South and the remarks made by Judge Terrell at its close on the same subject. We were not surprised at this exhibition of fatuity and conduct, but we were sorry all the same. It seemed to us uncalled for under the circumstances. For all who know Mr. Villard know very well or ought to know very well that we have to-day no truer or steamer friend among the white man is life. He surely does not need to prove the security of his friendship to the colored man. He has done so on more than one occasion. He is doing so steadily in the columns of his great newspaper, *New York Evening Post*. And he is doing so quite as steadily in private. We who remember what The Erowd Post was under the editorship of Mr. Dodkin and how much it was responsible for the radical change on the Negro question, gradually passed over the field of the North after the war, will be position the better to appreciate the radical change back to the Negro side question which has passed over the under the editorship of Mr. Villard, the right about-faced on the Southern question, and is doing to-day manfully, what in it lies to change sentiment at the North in favor of Negro to secure for him freedom and respect rights in the Republic. Loving Post stands to-day, because Gerrison Villard is its editor, for rights and opportunities for race, North and South alike. What there any doubt about all this to Mr. Villard? Is there one intelligent doubter relative toness of this young man's for the race? We do not think that case why may he not what is in his true heart to say phase of this many sibil If he has thought about line upon the problem is from us his thoughts, best and some hypersensitive in this particular phase of Is he to give us only what want, what we ourselves feel in this tremendous what is the sense of his talk of taking to us at entertainment, our thought, is to thought, without in their expression or the crossing of a Villard, if we mean the freedom of their friendship the freedom of the race most frankness of custom of thought, it with such freedom, becomes for the non- makes his own and becomes his not false to us, to become he says things to hear. He is not because he puts an primary or secondary the great subject of which we are not all. Far from that such is one be a possess no bush, a prowl of Garrison Villalood pools. But all the same Mr. grandfather, who was a child and who was now a Lord Garrison, will be with W. the grandson want to England continent which during these all other conflicts it. It came about Mr. Garrison's fame as possessive him in England by Thomas Larrall, W. the grandson. affirming that Mr. McCormick is the chief of his compulsive devotion to in- formation of himself with the work. For such he is not that The Evening Post blown successor of The Literary Post. It is not. But this we are glad to announce a chip of The Book and is trying in difficulties to make his neither unworthy of its service from The Librator. He high praises, and might to the law and trust proudly to publish his doing with his might for him with such means as he has The Evening Post is a very emotional proposition on its personal sides from The Lib- rary journal today is a high competition. It has its busi- ness at other ends, but the busi- ness is biggest, bigger and put together. It is one man, but by many men, comes into it and expect to and large returns upon their is no philanthropy in one newspapers, any more in a bank, a railroad, or a in sharp competition with for increased circulation, for advertisements, and for other works which shall be nameless, this policy is not de- termined, we consider rations general good by com- sioning to its own pay? is the great que- nity which the directors grumble to "Is it right?" It is and simple with the low and all that that means of the average newspaper in this one respect all body are alike, and come kind of average newspaper, interests of the country, political—and in an indis- like ours, business is poli- ticism is business—well, the of the country gather for union for mutual profit about and they form combina- bilities which civic right- hoods it hard to beat, find impossible to heat. Rule has no more in- such partnerships than it average church of to-day. Add the more money he calls of Lady Jane Mining Ideas for the Implementation of Independence. The Golden Rule is not business any more in the Implementation of Independence, but the trouble of distinctions and dreamers, say they all, if not in no many words, then surely in so many acts which have a way of opening leader and more to the point than more words; however brutally put. In short, the newspaper in a business venture to make money and the man who edits it has got to make it pay in dollars and dividends. It will be done out by the manned interests which lie back of him, and underwrite the paper as a business proposition. Now, such was surely not The Liberator. It was at no time in its life a business proposition in the sense that it made for its editor money, money enough for even its own maintenance without all from friends. The Liberator was in truth the simplest and sublime proposition ever launched on the sea of journalism in America. It had from beginning to end but one idea, but one purpose and that was the one idea, the one purpose of its editor, wiz: the abolition of slavery, the one purpose, it was devoted without thought, a business venture. It was founded to free the slave, not to make money, and so dollars and dividends never entered into its journalistic scheme or policy. This one thing only it did and that mightily to the exclusion of all mere material interests and considerations. It therefore never tempered, never compromised, never entered into questionable or other alliances with Wall street or State street, never retreated a single inch from its chosen ground, but held its straightforward and sublime way over all opposition, and peril to the goal of National justice and righteousness, in the teeth of poverty, persecution and prison itself. There was but one Liberator in America, there William Lloyd Garrison. The mound in which the great editor was cast was broken at his death. And the mound in which the paper was formed was locked within the soul of the founder, and so was lost to mankind when he left us twenty-six years ago. Yet, nowwithstanding this world-wide difference morally between The Liberator and the American newspaper of to-day, Mr. Villard has by the sheer strength and purity of high principle and purpose been able to pull a conservative journal like The Evening Post, supported mainly by a highly conservative constituency, into a radical treatment of the race question in America. He has made a powerful paper practically friendly and sympathetic with the Negro's side of the controversy, that when very paper had been one of the most influential factors in creating the present period of National reaction and criticism so hostile to the Negro's claims to equality of rights and opportunities in the Republic. He has therefore written if any white man has lived during the last decade, the idee of plain speech with and to us as a race and about us on our phase of the race question. To the North he talliplantly enough in our behalf. And in our behalf also he must be allowed ourselves the freshest discussion of topics with which we ourselves are mainly concerned or ought to be mainly concerned. Being a friendly outsider, he can see better than many of us on the inside can possibly see our mistakes, our faults, our industrial needs, let us say, in the struggle in which we are now engaged not only for our rights but for bread, for existence itself in America. He sees that the battles of life for us is not at any one point of the field merely, like the political, but is raging along the whole field, covered by a race's total existence and activity. And he perceives quite clearly in a general engagement like the political, that our emancipist and transportation facilities must be scouted to the morale, to the fighting quality of our troops. For the battle is going on in every position however obscure or widely separated from some other apparently more brilliant post, wherever any group of the race, however humble and ignorant, is fighting to retain old places of employment or to gain for itself new ones. The servant problem, if misogyny by the extent of the breadwining area covered by it for the race, is surely of sufficient tactical importance to the whole race, to the servant, class and to other classes as well, to warrant on our part the most careful study and the finest and greatest effort offered to our servant and our ground occupied by us to do to other classes better equipped than necessary to hold and maintain how ever humble it may be. No we have got to hold what we now possess in the world of breadwinners, however humble they may be, hold it faithfully, rapidly, and so out of its very smallness and humanity guide for the race stopping stones to large and bigger things in the world of breadwinners, whose equality and friendship we one and all pursue as a race, and for it each of us in his own way ought to be striving with might and mind.

The section of the Citizens' Union in withdrawing from the Fusion movement in Greater New York, has brought the whole Fusion movement into confusion. It is probable that Mr. R. Fulton Cutting, the autocratic Boss of the Citizens' Union, intended that such should be the case. Now, the question is, will the Citizens' Union go it alone? If it should it will be mighty lonely going, we believe. The Republican party still couplesting with the Hearst League, a Socialist aggregation of indescribables, and the German-American organization, but whether a Fusion ticket will grow out of this remains to be seen. Hon. Lemuel Eli Quixc, one of the strongest Republicans in New York, has entered his protest against any Republican alliance with the Hearst Socialists and thousands of good Republicans will join in the protest. Municipal control of public service corporations is a dangerous issue, at variance with the time-honored principles of the Republican party. Let the Hearst Socialist go it alone with that hobby. The Republican party should none of it. Help Fever Sufferers On the first page of THE AGE to-day we publish an appeal for aid for yellow fever sufferers at Vicksburg, Miss. The appeal is signed by Mr. W. E. Mollison and other reputable men of the race, some of them well known to us personally and by good report. These men would not appeal for outside assistance if the exigencies of the situation did not justify it. The readers of THE AGE should make a ready and generous response to the Vicksburg appeal. It is incumbent upon us to give assistance to those of us who may be in distress when it can be done. A scorpion like the yellow fever cannot be properly understood by any one who has not lived through one. The distress of all the people under such conditions is wretched beyond the power of description. And, remember, he who gives quickly multiplies many times the blessedness of his giving. Mr. J. C. Naplér. We notice that, since the meeting of the Afro-American Council, in Detroit, recently, there have been one or two unjustifiable thrusts made at Mr. Napier on account of some remarks which he made at Detroit. Mr. Napier's remarks were not pleasing to all of his hearers, but he stated the facts with reference to the conditions in the South, which he was discussing and no man is in a better position to know the facts or to state the facts in a given case than Mr. Napier. We gain nothing by attempting to gloss over disagreeable truths. The wisest course to have the facts, however disagreeable, plainly stated, and then all should take hold of them and seek to correct them in so far as they may be wrong and hurtful. There is no man of the Afro-American people, in the South or in the North, to whom the race owes more, and who has stood more like an immovable rock during all these years in the best interests of the people than Mr. Napier. Hundreds of young men and women who have graduated at the colleges and universities in Nashville know how Mr. and Mrs. Napier have stood by them in darkness and in sunshine, and it will be hard to make any same Afro-American feel that whatever Mr. Napier says is not true, and meant for the best and highest interests of the Afro-American people. Wherever Mr. Napier goes his words command instant respect, and whatever he says the masses of our people believe. He has earned this position not by cheap talk, but by honest work. Whenever money is to be spent, or a sacrifice of any kind is to be made in the interest of the race, in Nashville or a thousand miles from Nashville, Mr. Napier can always be depended upon to do his duty. Our people should be very careful how they attempt to weaken the influence of men of the character of Mr. J. C. Napier of Tennessee. --- Gov. Wright Falls to Make Good in the Phillipines. We reproduce in another column of THE Age to-day, under the caption "American-Filipino Row Oyer Wright," two editorial articles which accurately reflect the prevailing attitude of the American and Filipino minds towards each other in the Philippine Islands. El Renacimiento, from which we quote, is among the strongest and most outspoken of the native newspapers. Its editor is now under indictment for alleged libelling of an American officer. The Philippines Gossip, the American newspaper from which we quote, is all sorts of an American newspaper, much on the order of Toson Topics, the New York newspaper which gives decent folk the cold creeps whenever they get near it. But The Philippines Gossip is, perhaps, no better and no worse than the other American newspapers published by Americans in the Philippine Islands. It is a fair conclusion from the attitude of hostility to the natives and na- tive insurances of most of them that it would be better for all concerned if most of them were not published at all. St. Benedictine declares that the confidence in the Philippine government and good feeling among the people developed and fostered by Gov. Taft "has not only disappeared, but has been replaced by a feeling of discontent and distrust which is general among the people." And why? Because, as Justice states it bluntly, "Mr. Wright, as Governor of these Islands, has been and continues to be a failure." The Philippine Goods declaration, on the other hand, that the native newspapers are, for the most part, "worthless and execrable sheets," "a large number of whose readers really do not know what they want, or how they want it." Now, the whole business sounds just like The Aur fireing hot shot into the unligament of the Southern States and The Washington Post or The News Orleans Times-Democrat jawing back at the Aur. That is to say, the American newspapers in the Philippines treat the Filipinos just as they would Afro-Americans, if they were published in a Southern State instead of in Manila. It is very instructive. The point of it all is that the thoughtful Filipinos consider the Philippine government as dominated by Luke W. Wright of Tennessee to be a failure. A plebiscite of the Filipino people would show this to be true. This being the fact, and we dare say Secretary Taft will confirm it when he reaches the country. Gov. Wright should be recalled at once. Speaking of the appointment of Gov. Wright THE AGE said, on October 1, 1952: In the Republican party so poor in administrative material that it is compelled to place a Southern Democrat in charge of a government ten thousand miles distant, clothed with greater power than the President of the United States? The Governor of the Philippine Islands is an Autocart, pure and simple. Personally Mr. Luke Wright is an esthetician man; there are thousands of Southern Democrats like him in the Southern States, and those of them who have been called to administrative offices in the past twenty years, with race exceptions—"as in the case of Governor Northen and Governor Nancy Atkinson, of Georgia, Governor Longnep, of Mississippi, and a few others—have shown that they cannot rule fairly and justly mixed races and have small respects for all such. They have failed to govern themselves fairly and justly, and it is therefore impossible for them to govern others justly and fairly. But there is a wide distinction between the government of a Southern State and the government of the Phillipine Islands in itself and to the west of mankind to give the Phillipine Islands the very best administrative talent in the Republic. Are we to concede that Luke E. Wright belongs in that class? His heredity and education are against any such concession. Luke E. Wright of Tennessee, should not have been appointed Governor of the Philippine Islands. After two years of him as such he should be recalled. Afro-American Auto-Car Line. When the separate street car law went into effect at Nashville recently, we advised the Afro-Americans of that place to walk rather than submit to the law; the thoughtful men of the race at Nashville gave similar advice. They did more; they organized the Union Transportation Company, with a capital of $25,000. At first the company used ordinary vehicles to meet the transportation demands of the people; these proving inadequate, the company has just purchased in New York four large automobiles, which are described further in our news columns. When a similar law went into effect at Jacksonville, Fla., the Afro-Americans built a surface car line of their own, and adequately met the transportation demands of the people. It was by using this surface road as a basis to work upon that our faithful lawyers, Wetmore and Purcell, were able to test and secure a decision from the highest court of Florida against the constitutionality of the separate car line. God helps those who help themselves. And an ounce of nerve and hustle is worth a ton of slink and whine. At the primaries Tuesday the Republican district leaders were all reelected. Why should Prof W. H. Council rush on his stomach to Governor Jelks of Alabama with abject, grievous protestations that the Afro-American people do not want social equality? What does Prof. Council know about what they want? And what has Gov. Jelks got to do with the matter? --- The announcement in the public prints that Mr. William F. Powell intended to resign the post of Minister Plenipotentiary and Envoy Extraordinary to Hayti was promptly denied by Mr. Powell. He does not intend to resign. We judge from Mr. Powell's latest utterance on the subject that he intends to hold on to his job until the President removes him. The United States recruiting officers in Mississippi and, presumably, throughout the South, have been notified by the War Department not to accept for examination for Army service any Afro-American who is not an ex-soldier. The reason for this order is not given. The War Department has promulgated and enforced a peculiar body of rules concerning the Afro-American people which we should be glad to see published in book form. If we had one real friend in either branch of the Congress we should ask that such publication be made. The Civil Service Commission has discovered that the white-people of the South do not object to Afro-Americans serving as mail carriers but that they do object to them serving as mail clerks; thereupon the special agent in charge of the investigation suggests that Afro-Americans specify on their papers that they wish to serve as mail carriers. What will the Civil Service Commission do with a crazy recommendation like that? Why not suggest that Afro-Americans be barred entirely from Civil Service examinations? That would be the only way to prevent them from beating the Southern whites in the examinations. All Respondence Charges His Regimes With Moving Allied and Involved the Native—The Philippine Group Replies That Beliefless Native Journals Should be Suppressed. When THE Ack, about two years ago, denounced the appointment of Lake E. Wright of Tennessee as governor of the Philippines on the good and sufficient ground that he, a bird-in-the-bone Southerner, would inevitably alienate and exasperate the Filipinos by treating them as he and his ilk were used to treat Afro-Americans in the Soult, our prophecy was pooh-pooed by many influential white papera. Nevertheless, it has come to pass. Let any doubting Thomas read the following editorial from El Henacimiento, the leading Filipino journal, which lays at the door of Governor Wright the present discontent of the Filipinos and their growing distrust of the American Government; and then read the intemperate editorial of The Philippines Gossip, an American weekly published at Manila, which rushes to the defense of Governor Wright with the advice that the native press be "suppressed" and "cleaned out": "About three months ago we gave a resume of what, at that time, appeared to be the political situation and the situation to-day is not materially changed in any respect, the statements made then being applicable now in summing up the situation, which, if anything, is even worse than it was. "The situation at present is best summed up in the words: Utter lack of confidence. "When, a year and a half ago, Mr. Taft transferred to the present incumbent the reins of government, a general air of confidence prevailed among the Filipinos; confidence in the just and benevolent intentions of the American government. This confidence has not only since disappeared, but has been replaced by a feeling of discontent and distrust which is general among the people. "When Mr. Taft left the islands, it was stated that the plans of the government as then organized or in process of organization, would be continued, in full force. With him in charge of the imminent war, he would have virtual control of the policy of the officials here, this seemed to be assured; and yet, who will venture to say that there is not a wide-spread belief to-day that changes and radical ones have taken place. "While Mr. Taft, with his diplomatic hand, had succeeded in bridging the chasm between the two far different peoples, had established a common ground, taken vast strides toward establishing a feeling of cordiality, which promised shortly to make the two a harmonious whole, we find that to-day this confidence of the people in the government has been shown." Mr. Taft, in conformity with his instructions from President McKinley to establish a government here, not for the Americans, but for the indigenous element and suited to the needs of the nation. The Philippines for the Philippines, Mr. Wright, as soon as he had taken possession of his chair pronounced as his: "Equal opportunities for all." We admit that the latter may be more difficult to achieve, the practical application thereof likely to result justly and equitably? "We believe not, for this reason: The American and the European too, for that matter, with his great fund of practical knowledge and productive qualities, with his strong commitment to competitive development, familiar with modern methods and having a full understanding of the effects of the present legislative and commercial conditions, has an incalculable advantage over the Filipino, who first must be trained to start apparently on equal terms with the others finds himself, in a short while, so handicapped as to be greatly distanced by his competitors and "equal opportunities for all, soon come to mind that Mr. Wright assumed the management, the jingoistic press broke out in hallucinations and prophesied that he would specially change things and that Mr. Taft's policy would soon be done away with. These prophecies inform us that every large, faithful member of the cause of a great deal of the present discontent. "We said three months ago that great discontent prevailed and that this was greatest among the thinking element. This fact can certainly be no matter of indifference to the government. The great mass of people will always demand larger, more effective government for assistance in political and economic questions. To estrange these, therefore, as has been done in the case of the Federal party, which eighteen months ago comprised the snakehead supporters of the government, is surely a grave blunder. The fact that in this space of time the members of that party have been forced to suffer into hostiles ought to be sufficient barometer index of the general feeling. "Except for the indrone situation, which is somewhat improved, everything is in a worse state than it was then. But even with regard to this we may be surprised now that they were. Judicial and official records, however, we think, will not have changed much. "The manner of securing these results has extended the people until they are not but secretly hostile to the government." "We said then, and we still believe, that the change of methods has had an evil effect rather than a good one. Mr. Wright is credited with benevolence, justice and rightness. This is no new matter, we are not with the intention to make in the August number of Austria to the effect that Mr. Wright, as governor of those islands, has been and continues to be a failure. Justice says that he has failed to accomplish what might easily have been done, and the enlightened class has been estranged; that he has lost opportunities; has witnessed the complete change of front of the Federal party, largely through a lack of tac; that the Filipinos have seen great sums of money expended in the war; that the method of treating the indronep problem has created a feeling of resentment which will shoulder until a new governor is appointed capable of effecting a consolidation; that the insular government has been too reluctant to acknowledge the case of Judge Sweeney; that the people have lost all desire to make complaints because these come to nothing. "The article in Justice closes as follows: 'It is really discouraging and disheartening that the President: Secretary Unfit, and most of the people of the United States are that a policy he pursued here which will win the confidence of the people and then unfit, all through the lack of the necessary tact and ability. A change Would no doubt move whitness and be swallowed by the people. And if anything, are drawn too mildly. PASTING GRIP ON SOUTHERN SOIL After-Americana, Rejected by Outton NOTE AND COMMENT. Small minds dwell in a small world cannot escape from it however. Gaming of Native Press Urged. In reply, The Philippines Goes hosp to receive discord and restores harmony by suppressing those; native journals which dare to criticise the insular government. It is significant that The Goesip, while lavishing on uncomprehensible "nonsense" and "Taft for bias, pro-Filipino sympathies. To proceed with its article; "While The Gossip's policy is averse to decrying the Fillipino and his hopes and ideals, in the abstract, it is obvious to the most casual observer that the native press has long exceeded all limits of pressure." "But the 'abuse heaped by them in their mud-slinging at the governmental administration of the archipelago cannot for, one moment be accepted as a reflection of the sentiments, of the mentally well-balanced or right-thinking Fillipino—of the unbalanced or who ever stops to think even a little bit." "Instead of being a power of favorable influence and good for the good of their people, and helping along the progress of the lost attempts made for the welcoming of the positive press, in many instances, does everything possible to retard the progress of the government in its work. "For the sake of effecting a larger sale of the worthless and exasperate sheets directed at the government, the words of promiscuous and indiscriminate insolence and disloyalty, some of the so-called public educators simply cater to the agitator class of Filipinos, and this element of the archipelago, in their efforts to fortify their knowledge of anything readable in any tongue, take things just so, because the miserable publications pay it, and deify themselves and the writers of the blatant, bosh with self-placed halo of patientness, because of which they are densely impotent. "A large number of these readers really do not know what they want, or how they want it. They may open their mouths as wide as the gash of a cross-cut saw, howling for independence, and imagine that they can do fine things with it. The beauty of it is that the very one yelling loudest for any old thing is the one who does them as an inherent right, are the person able of handling any problem or situation by which they can do any possible good for themselves or any one else. "Under the crude semblance of a cold and impartially critical review of things as they see them, may be readily seen the cynicism and covert sceptre that can alone emanate from a malignant hatred of the administration which is trying to work in our best interest. It is easy to see the cloven hoof of a filthish dislike to anything and everything pertaining to America or Americans, whom they regard as the usurpers of their rights. "The Gossip office is almost daily in receipt of jibotic letters from woguy natives possessing a zigzag knowledge of the English tongue, but we have yet to get the full picture of the nation of horse sense in presenting a plausible argument for what they imaging is needed. "Whatever may be the ultimate outcome of the El Renacimiento case of libel preferred by Colonel Baker, it will serve as a wholesome lesson in thinking before speaking, and will show these native tintpot journalists that a certain guard must be trained to deal with libel. The hood is not transformed into truth just because a few random conjectures and heated dislike to the government say so. "The Philippines government is doing the very best it can for the Filipino, and the intelligent native realizes this. Many Americans think the government is too weak to handle the pressure to press for help things along rather than retard it. If they are unable to do anything but vomit forth venomous abuse upon the government, the duty of that government is clear. Suppress them. Clean them out. Establish press censorship and reduce the power of evil to a minimum. A handful of hysterical writers have been the source of actual damage to law and good order than all the Felizardos that ever happened. "With few exceptions, there is very little the spirit of anything like loyalty to be seen in the voice of the native press. When the government is forced to pretence of ultranolitude for the whoring wolfage of the government machinery, but underneath the whole thing there is nothing apparent but a latent spirit of collisions feeling and unrest. That spirit is being inoculated into the people who read and know not how to think." WHAT'S THE MATTER WITH AFRO- AMERICAN! To the Editor of THE NEW YORK AGENZ: I wish to call the attention of those of our people who are in authority, such as pastors, lawyers, doctors, teachers, editors, speakers and newspaper correspondents, who can help us if they will be helping to be the American colored people and not the name of Negro. Negro is known to the American people, and people would allow it but we colored people. The term Negro takes from us every time it uses his self-respect that all other people only use him. Negro holds up our race to the whole world as nobody, leaving us the very last. The Negro is the most wars are up against us every day in the week. Our ancestors came from Africa, but because they were told that Negro is right we find today the falsehood. So long as the form Negro keeps the heat of the race at the foot of the hill, we are more self-respect from the leaders of the tribe than to use it. We are American colored people. May this appeal reach the heart of every race. BALL, Lawrence, Mass. Sept. 11, 1992. DID NOT ENDORSE LYNCHING. From The Texas Freeman Mr. Grimke's Leadership Article Endorsed by Prof. Miller. To the Editor of THE NEW YORK AGE: Permit me to congratulate THE AGE upon Mr. Grimke's masterly article on "Right-Affore-American Leadership." It airs the alp hump on the head and drives it deep into the heart of the truth. I propose the following platform upon which all colored men can unite: "As Courageous as Right; as Conservative as Truth." Yourrs truly, KELLY MILLIA. Washington, D. C., September 16, 1905 Regular Correspondence of THE ACM ATLANTA, Ga., September 18.—The building of cotton mills and other man- ufacturing plants in the South which has received renewed impetus within the last few years has redounded to the good of the Afro-Americans of the section. This is true not because these factories and mills employ them but, paradoxically as it may seem, because 'black labor is rejected and can find no opening in any of these industries except in the most mental and underpaid capacities. The small towns of the Carolinas, Georgia, Alabama and Texas fairly bristle with newly built cotton mills, the capital for which is furnished partly by Eastern promoters and partly by local investors, the idea being to put the mills as near the fields as possible, thereby obviating the cost of transportation, and middlemen's and factors' profits on the raw material, which several items, when totalled, mount far in excess of the cost of transporting the manufactured article. The prospects have been so promising that many Eastern capitalists, contemplating the erection of mills in Massachusetts, have abandoned their original idea of location and are financing similar projects in Georgia and other Southern States, with good results, it appears. The Afro-American rejoices in the opening of these plants because it gives him a chance at the soil. The mills are male and female, and only white men, women and children are on the eligible list. Farms are depleted of their tenants for miles around in the search for help and are given over to the care and management of the mills go whole white families, even young children not being spared. The landowner is left no alternative but to contract with Afro-American tenants. He has long since moved to the mills and is now his children the benefit of school facilities and let his family enjoy that social life which was denied them on the farm. He is probably running a store or engaging in some other kind of pursuit, but the mills are not the only place given over to the Afro-American tenant to make the crops. After a few years this same tenant timely approaches the landowner and offers to buy the farm together with all the stock and appointments. Much land is passing into the farm. American land is moving, the reasons and the actual control of the making of the cotton crop is concerned, that is fast becoming the peculiar duty of the Afro-American. It might be stated, inferentially, that there is very little likelihood that the landowner may ride for a score of miles in some sections that are thickly settled and never see a white face, where once only white people lived. They have answered the call of the mills and for some inexplicable reason seem to prefer that sort of land. Possibly the strongest reason for this is that they are paid off weekly or monthly and do not have to wait until crops are sold for money. This, however, ought not to be any special inducement, as credit can be obtained at any of the towns, or even on the farm. Another reason, and doubtless a good one, is that it is hard work on the farm with little of the sights of the world to be seen, while things are not so dreary around the towns. But, whatever the reason, the fact remains the very nearly a monopoly of the farming interests, and this hold is getting stronger with the erection of each factory or mill. Thousands of acres of the best land are gradually coming into their ownership and thousands of other acres are under charge. The Afro-American can regulate the production of cotton in this country. The southern Jew, or rather the Jew that comes South to live and do business—the two terms are synonymous to him—is a born diplomat. It is remarkable to see how he adjusts himself to racial conditions. First he finds himself a lover in a neighborhood where Afro-American men tended. When his store door is opened he is always at the front smiling and offering the glad hand to his colored neighbors. All sorts of devices are resorted to in order to show that neither race nor previous condition of servitude color nor previous condition of servitude color he eschews with almost religious consistency, and great municipal events awake no interest in his breast. If a lynching occurs he is as silent, as a clam, pretending that his limited knowledge of English prevents his understanding of the course, he thinks it was all too bad. This first and greatest duty is to sell to the Afro-American at his door, and this he does with ever increasing fullness to his leather pocketbooks, frequently forcing his Afro-American competitor across the hill. He by and by the benefit of his creditors. By and by the benefit of his multated a sufficient amount, he sells out to another Jew and himself moves up town and opens up a place where he does not have to depend entirely on Afro-American trade. But the old store with which he does business at the same stand. They do business in South, these diplomatic Hollows with the humility of Fire Heep and the sagacity of Russell Sage. Cross-roads stores are run by them and mountainous packs are carried by perspiring peddlers to the very bottom of the pine forest. Not alone on the pine forest are the African merchants, but even they who have an undisciplined contempt for them. All the same, they are selling their goods and mostly to Afro-Americans. In one of his always interesting letters, Hon. A. H. Grimke in a late issue, the Ann spoke of a white woman who wanted to be a slave, and the slaves, Mr. Grimke's comment on the contemplated project was timely and full of sound reasoning. A venture of the same nature has just been launched or if it has been, no brewing, no publicity has been given it. He has above mentioned in that it looks to the erection of a monument to the Afro-American soldiers in the Civil War. The plan seems to be to ask Congress to make a bill to pension the old slaves that was once introduced in Congress but on which the owner was and probably never will be taken. DOGS IN THE MANGER From the stoning (tay) cabinet: "It done wrongs attack indeed when Sereno attacks Dr. Washington (Dr. Washington) so severely. If the would publish his good acts and achievements as freely as they do this then one might listen with at least a show of respect. Until they do this it seems to me that the problem of jealousy—If I cannot, you shall ask." Small minds dwell in a small world and cannot escape from it however, they wiggle. To what sort of monstrous thing shall we like the Afro-American who would seek to tear down or cripple the National Negro Business League! The Post Office Department should deny the privileges of second-class mail matter to K. Lamalty's Harpoon, newspaper published at Austin, Texas, by the man. The issue of that newspaper dated September 1, 1905, is too vulgar and profane to be allowed to circulate among people. We cannot see what editor Banner expects to reap from the need of race hatch which he sows broadcast over Texas. No good thing, of course, but, what? The New York Times suggests that Dr. William Demas Crum be relieved of his agreeable duties as collector of customs at Charleston and seat as Envoy Extraordinary and Minister Plenipotentiary to Holland in succession to Mr. William F. Powell, who has announced his readiness to go, although if he does do so he will about his resignation being accepted. Did you ever! It is up to Mr. Powell to appoint the President with his resignation. * Balth the Scriptures: "To him that hath more shall be given, and to him that hath not shall be taken away even that he hath." This is of the same character as the parable of the talents. Those who have much are in the main disposed to add to it, while those who have little often fail to properly value it and sometimes allow it to slip away from them. It is therefore true that most of the great fortunes most of the phenomenal successes of whatever sort, had their foundation in a wretched regard for small things. The National Afro-American Council has a place in the confidence of the people which cannot be shaken by any amount of prevarication and sulphurous rhetoric. The men and women who stand for the council and give it character and strength have made a place for themselves in the life of the Republic which cannot be taken from them by brass statements bespattered with malice and falsehood. The council will stand, where it has always stood, for the best interests of the Afro-American people. So much in written on the broadside of the past and present. A Missouri newspaper of much reputation is clamoring for the Southern Democrat to assert themselves and nominate a man from their section for the Presidency. This is a clean bid for the nomination of Governor Fok, who is the only Southern Democrat who has made a place in public life in the War who would have a ghost of a show at the head of a National ticket empire if not a bad sort of Southern Order State Senator. The Governor Douglas of Massachusetts was put up by the Democratic party they would make the Republican candidates insist from start to finish. The number of Afro Americans in New York doing business of a creditable character was an agreeable surprise to the delegates to the National Negro Business League, who, like a great many other people, had an idea that the Afro-Americans of the great metropolis were simply bent of wood and drawers of water. It is probable that we have more white awake business men and women in New York than any other city of the North and West Very soon Tupa Aux hopes to give readers a series of Illuminating articles on this subject. The Citizen's Union, which has been the imperious head and front of the movement in New York, has bolted itself and it is probable will go it alone.ert Fulton Cutting, the autocrat of the Union, would not stand for it and found on a show down that he could dictate the nomination of the candidate for Mayor, Mr. Cutting started a long time ago to help reform the government of New York city and to be an imperious and petulant political machine who instilled in his way all the time, or smack books now as if he had smacked and if it should prove so we shall tears to shed. We now have a white man's party in Virginia, and Judge Lee is Republican candidate for Governor, taking up the shoes with the sword. "We have white men to fight." Communities all this the ever faithful Spartan of Leaf Republican says: "The note of exhilaration in the Liberian remark is not ignored by the demonstrators and press. They have to support if the judge is not glad that he has in a white man's party, now that the Negroes have been so largely disfaced and if he does not regret having had the disfranchisement proceedings. It is doubtful whether the judge can present a satisfactory answer that would be competent with his attitude in the Virginia campaign. Very transparent is his hope. Yet his hope of strengthening the Liberian Issue in the Old Dominion, Negro Issue eliminated, may be disappointed at the hope of other states in the State of Georgia having same political conditions. In Mississippi, Louisiana, Alabama and South Carolina, Negro vote has been constituted, yet no progress seems made in those States in building the publican party." We have received as pamphlet the professor Kelly Miller entitled, "The Leopard's Spots"; An Open Letter to Thomas Dixon, Jr." This style of this article, as compared to conduct and style of Mr. Dixon's article in The Saturday Evening Post, one of the most disabling wounds seen to the doctrine of "race" and of which Mr. Dixon is the author of Miller's sarcasm, in its nature that of Junius, without that at theor's rancor and venom. Like Miller's Prof. Miller can rise to Impress and poetic eloquence. After addressing Mr. Dixon as "the high priest of anarchy," the author apostrophizes him: "You preside at every crossroads in the lingering of a helpless victim; wherever night murderer rides with your sword in quest of the blood of his black friend you ride by his side; wherever the rider of the crucified victim go up to the floor the crackling flame, behold you cross the women and children, the ghoulish gile, dance around the pyre and mock the death grim of the fellow-man and fight for chastity you have your part in the infliction of all."

SAUL FREY FULL LINE OF HARDWARE House Furnishing Goods and Toys All kinds of Repair Work 2221 Eighth Ave., Near 190th St. 6 WASHINGTON, D. O. 10 September 18—The Government printing office has received a large share of public attention for the past month owing to the controversy growing out of the order for seventy-two Lanton typesetting machine, incurring an expense of nearly $200,000. The Keep Commission appointed by the President found many things it was not looking far, and the result of its report was the dismissal of Public Printer Palmer and the appointment of Mr. O. J. Ricketts, his foreman, as Acting Public Printer. The Government printing office is said to be the largest print shop in the world. It employs more than 5,000 persons and its weekly pay roll amounts to nearly one hundred thousand dollars. The Afro-American is fairly well represented bureau of the Government, about four hundred being regularly employed. The positions held by them range from laborer at $50 per month to clerks, stenographers, pressmen and composers, whose duties are to perform the job with the endoil opportunity is given to study the real progress of the race along mechanical lines, for whatever the white man is doing the colored man is doing it with equal credit. The color-line is tightly drawn here and the colored man rately gets up and out of the room when he is doled out to him. This is due not so much to the heads of the various divisions as to the fact that the working force of the office comes from the middle and lower strain—the ware-carrying and trade union classes. These classes oppose the affluence of the owner, whom when once they get inside of the great printery. The oldest colored printer in point of years of service is Mr. William H. Lava-lette, who has been connected with the printer since Mr. R. F. Chisolm, whose service began in 1857. There are about twenty colored compositions all told whose pay $4.00 per diem, seems principly to the printers on the outside. In the office of the public printer Mr. L. Butcher, clerk, at an annual salary of $1.000; and Mr. Theodore Jackson, doorkeeper at $1.50 per diem. The head messenger in the chief clerk's office is Mr. James Jackson, who has a large number of duties. Mr. W. White, Christian is the only colored time clerk in the office. When he was certified for appointment and it was learned that he was colored it came near creating a panic among the whites. In one hundred presses are in operation, one colored man, Mr. Edward L. Carter, holds down a press, and Miss Goodwin Savoy is the only colored press feeder. There are a number of others in the job press room, more than one hundred young colored women are employed. These women earn not less than $2.00 a day and when Congress is in session many of them earn $2.00 per day on piece work. Miss Lazzie and Mrs. Rubie are the only having full power to operate stitching machines. The L. R. Charke school for dress-making, millinery, domestic science began its fall session this week with a lesson from a teacher from a number of States.

APRO-AMERICANS IN THE NORTH. "Charities" to Get Out Special Edition on This Momentous Subject. Charities, "a weekly journal of philanthropy and social advance," announces as follows an Afro-American issue to be published early in the blog: "In thrashing through the Southern situation, the community life of the Negro in the cities of the North has been too largely overlooked. But the swelling migration of colored men and women from the small towns and country districts of the South makes it high time for the leaders of the race, as well as those interested in social conditions in general, to get at the facts. One-half the counties of Virginia have less colored population today than they had ten years ago. Where have they gone to? What sort of houses and streets do the Negroes live in? What sort of occupations are they shut out of? Do they have a square deal in the police courts? What part can they play in good government? What of the Negro strike breaker? What are the lodges, the churches, the schools, and the other married only and for the Negro, accomplishing for the good of the community? "Answerers and half answers to these and a score of other questions will be found in a special number of *Charlize* papers early in *Kooper*'s life; the last is weekly round of *Charlize* and social advance. It has published within the year special numbers on "The Italian in America" and "The Slay in America", which have put what lies back of the life of *Charlize* into picturequeque, intelligent way—better than a dozen books with a trip to Ellis Island thrown in. In the same spirit this special Negro number has appeared in *Charlize*'s group of men and women who know their fists first hand. These include Mrs. Dannie Barrier Williams of the Fredrick Douglass center, Chicago; Dr. Thomas Jesse Jones of Inupitau; Prof Franz Keller of Columbia; Prof John Bois, at Atlanta; R. R. Wright of Trinity mission, Chicago; Principal William L. Bulkley, of public school. No. 80 New York; Prof Carl Kebley, author of *The Negro*; Angus A.

This Science Wrote in the Egyptian Name of the Ethiopian War Speech to Greece and Arabia—its Modern Development —Interesting Achievements of Illuminated Modern Negro Physicians. At the convention of the National Med. Association of Physicians, Surgeons, Dentists and Pharmacists in Richmond August 22-24, the following paper was by Dr. P. A. Johnson of New York. The Development of Medical Science and the Relation the Negro Sustains to In speaking on the development of the practice of medicine, I assume that the evolution expects me to make some allowance to its origin. Any intelligent practice of the science must be sought among people who attained some appreciable development in civilization, and were capable of evolving and pursuing some rational system of procedure. I shall, not allow the dim, light of doubtful tradition to attempting to speak of medicine's main among pre-historic nations, but will follow the course marked out by historic history, as it records the movements of peoples upon whom it is its soul of recognized civilization. We are informed by Strabo that the most attempt at systematic diagnosis of diseases was made by Egyptians, whose practice antedated by Hippocrates by about one thousand years. According to the same authority, people of Egypt, afflicted with malady, were exposed in public so that passers-by who had suffered from afflictions similar to those of patients exposed might give their advice to the benefit of the afflicted. Thus able to trace to the African the starting point of clinical and dietary practice. All who were thus required to go to certain temples at a subsequent date for the purpose describing their symptoms and treatment, which were carefully recorded and served for future reference. This customifies conclusive evidence of the condition of the physical diagnosis of the day by means of subjective and objective symptoms. A person who had never would recognize in a patient a malady from which he suffered and would thereby incur a subsequent date for the purpose describing their symptoms, thus exemplifying by objective symptoms. Eriod diagnosis by subjective symptoms given when the person described to the priests. The priests must custody of all records which they comply with and in this way formed the beginning of a medical code of which law took organization by regulating the nature of the priests. The penalty of death for misuse of life on account of this code. This regulation of the practice of medicine by law is the earliest glimpse of that nation's law with medicine which concludes modern medicine jurisprudence. The earliest known record of an august given by Pinyu who informs us of kings of Egypt permitted the use of the medicine for the cure of the diseases that which also had been issued a very high under the Ptolemaic African, one of men and the most celestial physician of his time, deliberately numbered of transactors of Monte Casino, Alicante, of his death in Delft, and India, and for three years, the learning of learning into Europe and medicine so he could be on the High The main domination. The central of the eastern of the universities of the universities of the ancient rale who employed it as means theirognosis. The was that of allowing a fall into a vessel with stone to favourable prognosis but if such an precipitant the blood was pumbed. In the time among the ancient important to mention that procedure was based on the blood on tablets were used of the temples. The first to practice the procedure followed out the establishment in these the combination of clinical medical school, in clinical consultations and public hospitals, medicine. Simulations were also in clinical numbers of medical foundation which the school in the domain of the study of the structure of the brain out as contribution to the the process of the tem- perature of the brain performed via section of the brain and not through motions and of mineral springs first to use them as it must be very evident it was not appreciably de- tinct since their respect of their dead a rigid re- sistance was unfavourable to dissection. It is how it remark that the Hip- lopean, which comprised a com- munity of plaques of amount of plaques of included a definite part of the Vesicularia and Pergonias and most ancient authentic mon- umental science. The classif- ion into internal or medical, and or surgical, is not modern, but, purely anecdotal, and in the words of Hippocrates. We know our knowledge of the description of diseases into the medicine, epidemiology and endemic forms. To him there must also be added, as his conception, the division into acute and chronic. We are indebted to Galen, for having divided the body into three cavities: the cranial, the thoracic and the tor, and what are known at the present day as the fluor and tarsonex muscles were named by him. What Zano, Plato, Epicurus and Aristotle were in the domain of morals, physics, and metaphysics, Galen was in the domain of medicine, for his were the generally recognized and accepted principles of his day. Alexander of Trakai and Paul of Ecurei are the two most famous physicians, who serve mention for the valuable contributions they made to the development of medicine. The former was the first to report a case of excessive hunger and pain due to intestinal worms. He also wrote a treatise of twelve books which dealt exclusively with non-surgical infections. The latter became famous on account of his successful original treatment of hypospadias, for he furnished the then medical world with a description of varicoses aneurism, and he finally to apply the method of Autyllus by performing successfully the operation of bronchotomy. While Arabian physicians made no direct contribution to the development of medicine in the form of original or constructive work, northeless the services they rendered to the cause of medical science are not the less vital and appreciable; indeed, they have put each successive generation that has profited by their work into the hands of them and established an unquestionable bond to their gratitude. The interference and opposition of the Christian church in the Empire of the East resulted in the disorganization of the medical schools established and controlled by Pagan scholars; and thus the arts and sciences were lost to Greece, which then entered on the period of its general decline. The torch described in the book which Geoffrey lighted and kept burning is brilliantly, was not allowed to be extinguished, but was kept afloat by the Arabs from the second-burning of the Alexandrian library by the Saracens in 640 A. D. to the beginning of the fourteenth century. It was these Arabs who, having become masters of what was the Empire of the east, collected and preserved be accumulated of life's treasures of the Greeks; thus the priceless tribulations which the latter had made to the development of medical science were not permitted to be lost. "While we are under perpetual obligation to the ancient Egyptians for the elements which constitute the foundation and framework of the structure of the science of medicine, and while the Greeks also have made us their debtors for their material contributions which have tended to develop and beautify that structure, is to the modern workers in this vast field that we are to look for the most notable and most important contribution to the medical treatment. The strictly modern development of medicine begins with the revival of letters in Europe, dating from the fifteenth-century, which ushered in the period of the Renaissance. We are indebted to Jacobus Sylvanus for having first arranged all of the muscles of the human body, explained their functions, and named and described those which had not been known before. Also he showed the values of the large muscles and was the very first to demonstrate the then unknown histological value of the study of the blood vessels by means of colored injections. Although the honor of the discovery of the circulation of the blood is generally credited to Harvey, yet it is only fair to state that Columbus of Cremon, born in 1444, was thoroughly convinced and dilatation of the arteries was by the systole and dissolve of the heart, and that arterial blood is conveyed through the pulmonary veins. He also first articulated the fact, well known at the present day, that the blood leaves the right side of the heart and passes into the lungs, and returns by way of the veins to the left arches. It was Columbus who first determined that the pericardium of the arteries was the principal inward and distal factor which constituted what has been subsequently presented as the arterial circulation. Columbus is regarded by very many as being entitled to the eruditiously bestowed snow Harvey. The accidental discovery of the medicinal value of cinnamalus in Peru, through the Commerce of Cinnamalus, has given to medicine medical use of the most valuable and effective therapeutic agents known to modern medicine. The next discovery which involved a detailed advance in medicine that that of the Cinnamalus, that that of the Mucuna, that that of the oral graphic description of the entire digestive system. The sensible stimulants which the following contributions gave to the general advance of medicine and the practical advantages derived by the profession the reform will readily convey us of the important part they play in the modern development of the science of medicine, the science of the human body, and the phenomenal birth of the seventh, eighth and nineteenth centuries. Wharton discovered the submaxillary duct; Glisson, the cauldle of the liver; Stenson, the eyecord duct of the parietal gland; Rivains found the sublingual duct; Payer Schrathwiesen and Brener discovered the intestinal glands; Wirsing, the excretory duct of the pancreas. Hearn the sympathetic glands. Coward the small intestine and the other glands of the prostate; Barbalin, the other glands of the labia; and Meibohm, the small glands of the eyelid. To Snider we now the description of the mucous membrane of the nose, and the clinical and anatomical demonstration of the fact that the mucous discharge is secreted, not by the brain, but by this membrane during the flow of the discharge from the nose. "The value of these discoveries lies mainly in the additional light they have shed on our knowledge of the physiology of the glandular system. It was during these centuries that the efforts of scientists then culminated in the development of those glandular agents which have been developed so great a boon on mankind, mainly because of the complete and intelligent control, which they give to the physician over the manifold fills to which the human body is liable. Among these anesthetics, hypnotics, analgesics, antiseptics, antipyretics and antitoxins take very high rank. Not to mention the name of Jenner would be a slight to one of the greatest benefactors of the human race, as well as a culpable indifference to one of the most apprehensive of medicine to the development of vaccines. It is who has developed the lasting gratitude of succeeding generations for laying matik possible to render humanly immune from one of the most bountiful and deadly sources. "The relation which the African sustains to the development of medicine may be distinished under three heads: First, foundational or illinitiatory. i. c.; he laid the foundation on which has been erected the structure of every phase of successive developments; second, schooling. c., by his achievements and virtues, schools or institutions of medical learning he has maintained, and increased the standard of his prowelling, and thereby rendered himself valuable and efficient in the field of practical service; and thirdly, instrumentally. i. c., he has been used as an instrument of opportunity in manifold instances, whereby some of the most eminent American practitioners have been enabled to make such discoveries and verify such theories do have studied by further develop the admission to give additional leisure to the profession by increasing the sum of our knowledge and to diminish the number of innovable diseases, which discoverer have also to render them internationally known. "It is scarcely 200 years since the Negro has emerged from his long night of intense mental darkness in which he was imprisoned by relentless fate, and again grazed upon the life-giving sunlight of intellectual opportunity. Whatever have given his achievements in the field of medical science in modern times, a just, legitimate thereof must be made with due regard to the limitations to which he has been subjected; and which have operated greatly to his disadvantage. His reapparence after a lape of so many centuries made him virtually a new hero; "Our knowledge of the achievements of the modern Negro physician is mainly confined, to the Western hemisphere. What the Negro has accomplished since the beginning of the nineteenth century has the necessity for speculation to his history, and to his pared with that of other races. Nature has so constructed him that he has been able to overcome such difficulties and obstacles in his struggle for knowledge as would have driven any other race, similarly circumstanced, into the retreat of despair and inaction. The door of every college in this land was closed against him until near the end of the last century. He has used well and creditably every opportunity which has been accorded him, and in numerous instances has so acquitted himself as to have earned the footfront of his fraternity. The following illusory examples of some of the most conspicuous examples of the just claim our race has established to be recorded high rank in the activities of the profession. "Dr. Martin R. Delancy and Dr. J. McCune Smith are the first of the pioneer Negro physicians of the United States to stand out prominently as a skilled practitioner, and to show the capacity and possibilities of the Negro in this department of mental development. To Dr. Martin R. Delancy, a native of the United States, we give credit for having established the psychiatric faculty which has been admitted to be scientifically true, that the pigment which makes the complexion of the African black is essentially the same as that which makes the raudy complexion of the European that of the African being concentrated close, which is black. Dr. McCune Smith, a native of this country, having graduated with an unusual distinction at the University of Exeter, he practiced and practiced his profession. He was one of the pioneer Negro physicians of the United States, where his eminent professional services gained for him a remarkable reputation for skill. He was the first Negro that established a pharmacy, and it is due to his high character to say that his professional work did not preclude him from rendering very material assistance to his profession. Dr. Samuel Lyman Herbert, Dr. Henry E. F. Ford of British Guiana and Dr. Dexsey, Dutch Guiana, S. A. each obtained the highest percentage earned by any student at Kings College, London, up to their time. Dr. Herbert is said to have been a phenomenon as a surgeon and physician. He won every scholarship for which he competed in the University of Oxford, and was the prize man in the third year of his course. He was the recipient of a flattering enquiry for his extensive classical learning from the celebrated Prof. Quain of London, who told him that he thought he had made a mistake in selecting the medical profession for his career, and expressed regret that he did not continue at the university of Oxford, where he was already a graduate. Dr. M. R. F. McCune, a graduate of the University of Exeter, would have gained for him a chair. The title of associate of Kings College was conferred on him. No practitioner, white or black, in British Guiana had before or ever since received that distinction. This was conferred in recognition of the valuable contributions he made to surgical science during the first years of his career. He was also a member of the Royal College of Physicians. S. A. H. He was selected by the British government as its secretary commissioner to investigate the etiology of the Rubin plague which was at that time ravaging and first disseminating the colony of British Guiana. "12. Doses of the Island of Barbados, having distinguished himself at the University of Eindhoven, and after having received very many titles for his excellent work, volunteered in the French army in the service of the French army, his medical services endured him to the Ferguson people especially, who, at his death, extended their very high estimate of his medical and surgical ability by explaining, 'Our good black doctor is dead.' As a further evidence of their high respect for him, the government suspended hospitalities until his inference, which was carried out with military honors. "In view of the marvelous possibilities of the race on the various fields of intellectual progress, as is obvious from his performances from time immemorial and his manifest destiny to be conspicuously identified with the several processes and civilization of the world, I cannot conclude my remarks without reminding my colleague that, that, the memory of fulfilling that destiny, the memory and proportion of our development as well as the degree and lustre we may shed, both on our great profession and on our race, will be in proportion as we rise to the level of liberalism, sympathy, miscellain and mutual interest and broad fraternal solidarity, and as we create and utilize opportunities. We must be animated by a sentiment of brotherly devotion, and discover everything that tends to produce a positive and productive life, the superior and tolerant hand of sincere unity and broad minded professional confraternity, for on the practice of these basic and elementary virtues must be erected the superstructure which shall redound to the credit and glory of our potential race." CIVIL SERVICE SUBTERFUGE. Afro-Americans Compelled to Resign "Voluntarily" Southern (Cerkshams, Near the New York Evening Post) From The New York Evening Post. That seems a peculiar arrangement by which the Civil Service Commission is to belong it that about Nigros in the South are "voluntarily" to rollplush the clerkships in post offices which the "will not be allowed to hold." Having investigated several cases in which black clerks had been forced to resign, sometimes by unfortunate the event of the commission to force them to know that they cannot retain such positions. But the objection to them as mail carriers is not so strong; consequently, if those who pass the examination then be required to know that the commission not as clerk, there will be "no discrimination against an antislide because of his color." Well, if the Negro or white man could not reason better than that he ought to common sense, is required. All you have to do, it seems to be thought, is to, make "voluntarily" mean "communally" and the problem is solved. And, of course, when Southern men forbidding black men to be carriers, some equally the verbal shift will be invented to explain away the discrimination: This is the strangest version of the commission. Compete a man to accuse a crooked duck, and that make it square. Regular Correspondence of The Am- Chicago, Ill., September 18.—The great gathering of the National Negro Business League has had a bracing effect on the local league in Chicago. The Chicago league has returned to the city with the determination to make the local organization more active and important as a factor in the business enterprises of the city. Plans are being considered for the establishment of permanent headquarters for the league, to make a careful study of the various kinds of business enterprises now being carried on by our people and of devising waves and means to promote worthy projects that need financial and other aid. In a former letter to THE ACK, mention was made of the large number of smaller business enterprises that have been successfully carried on since the National convention of the league was held in Chicago four years ago. Some of these small shops and stores have been encouraged and inspired to increase their stock and enlarge their places of business in many ways. There is also an increasing disposition on the part of the colored people to patronise stores owned and operated by colored shop-keepers. They are already finding out that if they keep a first-class shop, store or factory, there is no color line visible in their patronage. Chicago is a liberal town and the success of Smiley, the caterer, Theodore W. Jones, the transfer man. Howard, the shoe-pollinist manufacturer? Haynes, the successful razor-strop manufacturer, and Jones, the grocer, as well as many others who might be mentioned, shows that the right kind of man as a merchant is able to win all kinds of patronage. The man or woman who sets out to carry on a colored business for colored people will, in due time, find that he has more color than dollars. Somehow the best things, in spite of prejudice real or fancied, attracts people of all colors. They are after the best things. Who has them? That is the only question asked. There is a big restaurant on State street owned by a colored man, but his service is so up-to-date and the food so well prepared that the white man who is hungry never stops to inquire as to the color of the dress. What is true of this and other restaurants of the same grade is true of every drug store, printing shop, real estate office or livery owned and managed by colored men and women. In business at least the main thing is to be a good businessman, and success is an asset of the term, and success is agile. One of the striking things said by Mr. Villard in his notable address on "Domestic Service" before the New York convention was that there is no reason why colored people should not be the leading hotel keepers in the country. What the late Mr. Wormley easily accomplished in Washington can be accomplished in any part of the country by a man correspondingly endowed with bionic arms. Boston has accomplished the same thing by the same methods and is a further demonstration that men of color have done and are doing many things that most of us falsely assume cannot be bled by colored men. The miserable habit of self-preservation is responsible for numerous than race prejudice. The man who plays a limitation upon himself does not deserve to succeed and in fact will not. His failure should be charged to himself and not to the slave. The majority of our business people do not and cannot succeed by being wholly independent of white persons. This fact obtains in almost every part of the country. Some one said in the New York meeting that "in dollar bill has no prejudice." The saying, then, that the money with which we do everything through smoked glasses, the conclusion of the whole matter is, don't try to run a colored business, go into business, if you know everything, and let the coin take care of itself. In The International Quarterly Review, Vol. I, Dr. Washington Gladden contributes a stirring article on "The Church and Social Problems." The very nature of this title leads the writer to the consideration of a wide range of questions and quite inevitably to the Negro problem. This eminent theologian treats the whole question like a man who is not afraid of questioning. He asks, "Is not Christian object obscure in its treatment of human relations? Is it not possible to draw from the teachings of Christ some simple, illumination, decisive principles governing our duties to our fellow men upon which we can stand together?" Dr. Gladden forcibly says, "It ought to be clear to all responsible Christian men that such a conflict of opinion about essential morality, as that which divided the churches North and South before the time of Christ, is again the Christian church." Again, "If Christian morality is so indefinite that honest men with the same New Testament in their hands can hold opinions so diametrically opposite on a question which is no nearly fundamental to conduct as any question can be, then Christian morality is of no particular value for the guidance of reasonable men. Such a conflict over such a question does more to weaken the appeal of the church to men, more to lessen the respect of men for the church, then the question is that Christian morality is that "the question is one that affects vitally both the church and the social order and some serious effort, ought to be made to reach a reasonable agreement upon its merits." It is well and timely that a churchman of Dr. Gladden's nuance should speak out thus boldly. If the church is to be dragged down to the low level of politics in dealing with human relations in government, then the Christian church must lose its hold upon the souls of men. Dr. Gladden rightly calls it "scandalous" that the Christian church of America should hold the Golden Rule in its application to the relationship of men and women of differing complexions. FANNIE BARRIER WILLIAMS. Sag Harbor Choir Makes a Hift. Sao Hammond, September 18—Some worthy white ladies visited the A. M. E.

Yellow, shone the sunlight down on glen and glade; over olds and mendows, two young lovers m娘ed; Underneath the Apple Blossoms, blowing high above; Rested they together, telling tender tales of love.
