Senator Foster Wanted a Migrating Bureau Against "Jim Crow" Cars. But After Continuing Senate Found What Impostable—Thinking Hole Land. Better Than None, No Urged Wrong. Accommodation? Class= After-Americans' Opposition Anted- cident Friendly Sentences. Special Correspondence of The Aon. WASHINGTON, D. C., June 28—An in- surning letter on the Rate bill legislation has been written by ex-Senator Henry W. Bink to the Boston Guardians which that paper will hardly dear publish, as it puts Miller Trotter in a hole. The letter is a strong argument for the Warner amend- ment, which The Guardian has sensation- ly opposed; but also clears Mr. A. H. Bink and Prof. Foster from the chap- le of the book by The Guardian. The Washington Bar, of advocating that amendment. The letter is very valuable, as it gives the inside information as to the game, development and defeat of the Warner amendment; and also as to the companion attitude of Senator Foraker and other friendly Senators who, having been convinced that they could not get a whole loaf, practically endeavored to secure a half-loaf in the matter of opposing Jim Crow" cars. The letter follows herewith: To the Editor of The Guardian: For the last month of February last, Prof. Kelly Miller and Archibald Grimek, Esq., called upon me and requested to aid them and the col- lation in the Rebate Bill which should curri- lall the rights and privileges of colored people as passengers on Interstate Com- passenger common and Pullman cars. "I immediately examined the bill with all the amendments then pending, commenting on the subject, and was assured that it had been proposed amendment bearing upon the bill or proposed amendment bearing upon the subject, and was assured that it had not be desirable to be agitated at that time. There was a general determination to let it go no far as this Rate bill was concerned." Letter, however, I learned that Senator Foraker, at the request of several representatives, was instructed to introduce an amendment to the bill, which was then pending in the Senate, which should secure the utmost that the Senate would allow it to pass the bill, to protect colored interstate usagers in the enjoyment of equal rights, and I corresponded and conversed with Senator Foraker with a view to making proposed amendment more specific to the interests of the best friends of the colored people in the Senate, and assured me that the Senate would allow the best friends of the colored people in the Senate, and assured me that the Senate would allow the best friends of the colored stronger; and he felt, I did that as of the utmost importance now to get one affirmative provision into the bill, subject matter upon the Interstate Commerce Commission; for if this comprehensive bill once became a law, it would be obligated to obtain subsequent relief or legislation. "My own enquiries satisfied me that he was correct" to the feeling in Congress; he prepared three forms of proposedendment to the bill and submitted them. Messy, Miller, and Grinke, who were in charge of the amendment, be a diligent effort to secure theintroduction of one or the other of them,acong to the impression made by theirappeon the Senator applied to,butunable to secure the introductionofus of them ator Foraker approved proposed neat text on copied below— the form used in the book.

I considered its adoption by the states as transportation which has occurred for the colored people since the Civil War. It compelled the railroads to furnish good cars to the whole ten million and South, and opened the way to the destruction of the "Jim Crow" car business throughout the country. areas from those for whose benefit it was intended, was and is to me incomprehensible. Prof. Miller and Mr. Grimke both joined me in this matter latter feared that the colored people might be making a mistake; yet he felt that I must be wrong about it, in some way, and that the race must be united; that the Government did not the God sent provision out of the bill. "The fact that cratty Southern Senators, who well knew that the only way to favor it, acquiesced with seeming satisfaction in its passage, was taken by the colored people as a conclusive argument, and the dictionary and the plain meaning of the word is an all inclusive word. It is that which is rendered by the servant to the master, 'equally good service' prohibits discrimination upon the ground of race or color. "That Senators Foraker, Warner and Hopkins, Grane and other, whose names the interpretation placed upon their efforts, is a mild characterization of it. The obnoxious blessing out of the bill; and it is out, and I fear will stay out, of National law for many a long year to us, as all hope that in this last in my words. "As for myself, I expressed, to all who cared to inquire for it, my opinion of the amendment, and refused to the part it was proposed to take." I "write this, and ask you to publish it, as an act of justice to Prof. Miller and as an act of justice to the accused of responsibility for the Warmer-Foraker amendment, and also to bear testimony to the anxious and able efforts of the people to secure the best possible protection of all interstate passengers in the enjoyment of equally good service and accommodations who may the same compensation throw for it." "One great good has been accomplished: The colored people have demonstrated their courage and strength, they can carry their point, for them never forget this great lesson, which teaches them that in union there is no place for the oppressed, pede the Republican party. But this makes it all the more necessary to be sure you are right before you go ahead." "HENRY W. Blair," Colorado Building, Washington, D. C., June 27, 1806. INDUSTRIAL COURSES AT HOWARDS W.P.

The only way to do this was to exact liberation based on the maxim, "Equally good service for the same compensation," and hence the Warner Amendment. Our idealists, who wanted everything or nothing, were at once up in arm. They claimed to use in the amendment a threatened action by the National law of the whole "Jim Crow" system. But this fear was pooled with by some eminent men, including ex-Benator Henry W. Blair of New Hampshire. Behind, two facts were brought forward. "Jim Crow" cars, being already in full operation in the South, would not in reality be confirmed here by the explicit approval of the Federal Government. On the other hand, as prejudice is not likely to ever make men these nor the North, men these forget the increased expense of "Jim Crow" cars, they are not at all likely to be made much more popular by a dubious recognition on the part of the Federal Government. According to these practical men, we had nothing to lose in fact, but something definite to gain by the Warren Amendment. The Afro-Americans in the South have not been slow to see that their interests have been sacrificed by the defeat of this amendment. A significant instance is that Senator Foraker has been informed, since he undertook this fight, that seven hundred proud fathers, Southern Afro-Americans, have christened 'their community' Benjamin Foraker. It might be well, as there is so much doubt about this subject, to reopen it fully. If we made a mistake, we should know it that we may take steps to repair it.

McClellan is founder and head. He made the address to the graduating trainee nurses, which address The Avery Institute, in its Sunday edition, giving up about four columns of its space to it. We beg to express to that paper our high apprehension of the contribution of valuable space to this subject. This Hospital and Training School for Nurses deserves more than a passing word for our hands, for it is a singularly useful institution in the active brain and generous heart of one man in the fall of 1886. That man was Dr. A. A. McCleann, who named the training school for the necessity for a school of some sort for the training of colored nurses. The vocation of the trained nurse is not only highly useful, but also highly able as well. The exclusion, the injust exclusion of the educated colored man and woman from employment as teachers of the training school, the system of Charleston has closed this door of opportunity and usefulness and employment to a goodly number of our students, and another door of opportunity and usefulness and honorable employment for such a class became then under such unwarranted importance. And this the Training School was intended to effect and actually effect in the cases of sources of skilled and intelligent young women, trained in the art of nursing, sent out year after year for nearly twenty years by this school established by Dr. C. Woman and his own and able corps of nurses, and a generous aid of many friends of both races. In the beginning of the enterprise Dr. McClellan and his assistant essayed to connect the students with without hospital connections. He had to provide advantages which offered, and those advantages did not include, necessary as it to the efficiency, to the success of the school, and to include any hospital connection whatever. An effort was made by the brave man who was at the head of the school to the River Axleman for infirm and aged colored people, offering to the Commissioners of public hands to furnish medical attendance if they would establish that a institution if they would establish that a ward for the treatment of its sick inmates. But the Commissioners did not open such a move, and therefore rejected it. The ward was then made to obtain a ward in the City Hospital to be placed in charge of the students of the training school. "But effort was also talked by the authorities. House Speaker Paul D. Pelosi used in National Review to To the Bailout of Tum New York Am: The American Lender, a local firm of the Afro-American Lender, which appeared in Tum New York recently. This article is certainly on the right trail, for he calls attention to local leadership. Here certainly is the root of our political troubles, our almost total political failure. To show the importance of local leadership, let me ask a question: Can you point out any member of the present National Congress who does not largely, depend upon local leaders? The genius of an army depends upon his subordinate officer, and they must act in union if they depend on the national economy. The prime ple calls loudly to our local leaders today. This political inactivity of ours, especially in Northern State, where we have a fighting chance, hurts us in more ways than one. It has a tendency to cool the ardor of our political friends, for they see we could not be depended upon in case we were not in the fight. We have to make if they attempted to advocate our cause. It gives the lukewarmness we see no danger in demeaning no from our activity. It gives courage to such men as Tillman, Bacon and Halley, because it their open read and without opposition. Once upon a time man did things from the force of necessity—financial or personal. If you do the same things from the force of necessity—financial or personal. If you do his financial interest to do a certain thing, he will not do it. regardless of his principle he may sacrifice in refusing rop. The Afro-American North has his vote, or the privilege to vote: in Illinois, Indiana, and Missouri he holds the balance of power. Now, in any of the States named, if we were organised by counties under a State delegate, we would be ruling State politics. We could force consultation; could dictate to State delegates what would be done; should have to do our bidding; look for another job. We could make such men as Senator Forster do very different things in the bill. The Afro-Americans in Pennsylvania have had a very bright chance since Mayor Weaver split the Republican party and if they will only form independent political clubs in each county, guided by a State executive league, they will be in charge of coming on. These clubs and legions ought to be independent in order that they may be liberty to vote for whom they please or be a position to dictate to their own party. As far as my knowledge goes, there is only one town in the Union that has near 5,000 inhabitants and no city government. Now, if they would organize, backed up by the rest of the Afro-American people in their district—do you see how easily they could make a man talk in Congress? They wanted to hear or get another job, they gentlemen in the States named above have the chance to change the political condition of the race; you have lined above, or improve on it if you like.

The ous probands is with the one who first makes the letter to your correspondent received from exMayor Thacher, in which it is stated that he—John Boyd Thacher—had sailing with Columbus on his voyages; hence, Prof. Stafford would have us suspend judgment relative to the prescriptions of the letter with Columbus on his voyages; hence, Prof. Stafford would have us suspend judgment relative to the prescriptions of the letter with Columbus on his voyages; hence, Prof. Stafford would have seen that the author himself would have seen that of Negroes sailing on the Columbian voyages.

Hence I will not Beginner Correspondence of The Am. ATLANTA, Ga., July 2-7: was the first American to visit the United States of Georgia. In it Mr. Fleming before the element of the State University of Georgia. In it Mr. Fleming occasion to pay his respects to the would-be distracters of this State and to show them that the thing was not only unconstitutional but also unworthy of white men. It was the kind of open and manly talk that caused him to be defended for Congress by that small heir politician, Thomas W. Hardwick, who now represents the district once represented by Mr. Fleming. He was the first of Hardwick's friends that at his boastfully proclaimed that if he were elected to Congress he would not rent contented until every Afro-American in the United States was distracted. In spite of the House for several years, his beast has not been made good. But Mr. Fleming is even defeat when he believes the cause he advocates is just, and it is a lasting shame that a man of his brilliant parts is replaced by a man of Hardwick's stamp. Mr. Fleming has, on several occasions called attention to the fact that it is easy for registrars to put questions to white men whom they opposed, that are impossible to answer. His contention is being proved that the registrars asked the applicant the following questions: "When does the Bureau come have original jurisdiction?" and for what reasons? Of course nobody but lawyers and only a few of them could off-hand answer questions of this kind and even then the registrars could answer them. The answer is a generally feature of it that registrars are generally men of limited education. Of course it was expected that the unanswered questions of the registrars applicants only, but when business got dull because none of these would apply, knowing the unessentiality of the report, the registrars and studied out a few white men against whom they had some personal spleen. When one of these would be voters applauding the unessentiality of those technical legal questions. He happened to be no lawyer, but a Presbyterian minister, who gave more attention to the question of the legal questions, and yet, if the truth were told, he knew more law than any registrars in Virginia. But he was a marked man in the county, who was making a desperate effort to be Governor on a disfranchise plank, says it was right for this "milieu" of the Smith of this county, who is making a desperate effort to be Governor on a disfranchise plank, says it was right for this "milieu" of the Smith of this county, who had come to live in Virginia and who was not to be trusted. These registrars are clothed with higher authority than most of the courts of the state, and they decide just what any paragraph on their State Constitution means. As is well known, there is always diversity of opinion among lawyers themselves as to the meaning of certain words in the Constitution. Courts of last resort frequently reverse lower courts on such questions. In fact, we frequently have the spectacle of a divided bench on constitutional questions. But the registrar is not always from his decision there is no appeal. It is just now beginning to drown on the leaders of the Democratic party that men claiming to be Republicans or Republicans, might get places as registrars and let in only such people as they desire. All in all, it is a peculiar condition that the African-American disfranchising of the Afro-American. Nobody seems to believe that those prescriptive laws will always stand, and there is a standing fear that they will be unconstitutional. In that event conditions will be worse for the Southern white man that if he had not resorted to them. HERBERT URGES REPUBLICANISM Review Party's Benefits to Afro-Americans in New Jersey. At a recent meeting of the Afro-American Republicans of Newark, Hon. Rene Herbert of Trenton, responding to the toast, "Our Present Duty," advised the Afro-American people to stick to the Republican party, whose good works in New Jersey be rehearsed, particularly the institution of mixed schools, which are in danger in parts of the State. Mr. Herbert said in part: "Sometimes it seems to me that, in the growing audacity and malignant hate of the Southern Democracy and the growing indifference of Northern Republicans, we are facing an antislavery agitation and four years of bloody war remain secure. I drop from among those which are in danger the immortal principle of liberty. That, thank God, is "It is our duty to preserve untouched and unharmed that principle writ into the legislation and of effort, which gives to our children equal opportunities for education, respect to which they reside, under which hundreds have graduated from city high schools and the Normal school at Twinton and from other schools, common schools, open to the children of all the people alike. It is an impermissible partnership and the fame of its sponsor, the late Senator James C. Youngblood. It is one of the proudest memories of my life, and I am confident in securing its passage. After over twenty years of successful operation, its benefaction able than any resultant from legislation which we have yet secured in this State. Its worth has been proven. It is our duty to hold fast to it. It is good. "This boon came 'to us through the party of Hobart and Sewell. Murphy and he to the many reasons why we should continue to support the Republican party, to support the ship carrying our hopes and aspirations, freighted with our interests and our rights. As Frederick Douglas once said: 'It is our present duty to preserve the modicum of civil right, of political power we yet possess, to insist upon our right to work, to work at any trade, in any mill, factory or workshop for which we are employed, to work at any right to work at any trade, in any mill, factory or workshop for which we are employed, to work at any right to support faithful and contented wives and bright-eyed, laughing, happy, little children in comfortable, honest homes. To the effective power of organization." "The big, black fist of effective organization will act as an preventive of prosecution and justice. Organization, then. I take it, is our permanent present duty. May we have the wisdom and the courage, to persevere, to persist, to opportunity and go far toward giving us that 'white man's chance in a free country' which is the ultimate goal of such a multicultural Afro-American citizen—an aspiration dear to our hearts. And I believe that we eventually must motion wishes and believed in by the majority of it African people and by that protect us well and punish us."

J. Jervill Quinn School Board of Baptist Congregation. To the Letter of The New York Asc. Your representative at Boston, is reporting the case of the person of the New England Baptist Convention, little in town. The New England Convention is already a member of the National Baptist Convention. Last year at the Brooklyn session Dr. C. R. Morris of New York suggested the name or merger of the District Convention comprising the New England State and the New England Convention; and under the guidance of Dr. Morris they adopted this idea of union with the First District Convention. Since that time the author of the letter has been the sole member and at the meeting held in Cambridge simply led the force back to where he found them before the Brooklyn meeting. The largest body of Mennonite members of the National Baptist Convention are members of the New England Convention. The largest body of Mennonite members of the National Baptist Convention; and in three days of "compact organization" there is no priest preacher of average intelligence in trying to divide our great Baptist family.

VALUE OF ORGANIZATION. Jurgened Over Flight of Disbanded Philadelphia Afro-Americana. From the Philadelphia Court. With no thought whatever of forcing our belligerents to agree, we are here to accept it. it is our candid opinion that unless the Negroes in Philadelphia, as well as elsewhere, begin to encourage Negro enterprise conducted by members of the race and create a recognized leadership, there is little if any hope for the black man to succeed like other race varieties along any lines, be they professional, commercial, industrial or political. It is useless for us to continue to complain about discrimination and other disadvantages to which we are put to from the beginning, and to blame the accident of birth in being born black instead of some other color. We are an intelligent organized movement of black men and women of character, ability and integrity to champion the cause of the race, when it is not the case. What a sorry plea that Negro is in Philadelphia at the present time, without a single civic, industrial, professional, or managerial effort! He is practically without leadership. This comes about from the fact that the Negro is not a victim of injustice — in his faith to the minister in the pulpit, the doctor, lawyer, publicist, newspaper editor, and so forth, far as the Negro is concerned. Everybody seems to be sovereign to speak, act upon even the most vital liaison affecting the race, just as they so feel inlined. A condition can never amount to very much. What is needed is a getting together of the real and true representatives, and we have them, men and women of character, wise and well-versed, and vise and plan for the best interest of the Negro in *Philadelphia* along practical lines. Things are *growing* so critical, we sound this torain of alarm for the very great need for intelligent, systematic organization among Afro-Americans in *Philadelphia*. We refrain from suggesting more at this time, but appeal to all Negroes to begin to think, then act. FORES COMPLIENT WASHINGTON. Amnest He Could Have Prevented All Evilhs New Raw Survivors. He could have prevented all Northern Negroes are not well advised when they permit themselves to be carried away by the ferror of some of their orators' denunciation of Booker T. Washington, one of the greatest and certainly the most influential member of their race. They should be calmly and sensibly, and then ask themselves whether he could better it by stepping aside from his noble mission and battles that would be absolutely futile. At a meeting in Boston the other evening, Mr. Cornell, of New York, voiced the customary order of the Booker Washington, and the colored people indored his remarks by their applause. Washington had been "currying favor with the whites"; under his leadership, Washington had been "franchised in seven States, and even denied riotors of the South the perverse leader had not seen fit to raise a hand," and now the Negroes are paying for his blunders. The trouble is that the Northern Negroes have expected Washington to be dead out of the land of social bondage, warrior to win their battles by some mysterious power; a statesman so overwhelming and so in influence at the policies of the Confederacy that he could not believe that he could have prevented disfranchisement and "Jim Crow" laws down there, had he tried. It is an entitlement of the man and his mission in life. Booker Washington is doing a remarkable work for his race. He is turning men and women of useful accomplishment and of great financial influence is over for a real, a practical power among Negroes; the power of thrift, industry, culture and good citizenship; the power of fighting among the colored folk of the South, else were all training vain. It is less noisy and spectacular than denouncing legislatures and, inciting to hatred, but it is more powerful than the vain strirlings Rev. Mr. Morris and his followers seem to desire.

Proportion. All women have it in their power to remain young and beautiful. It is an easy thing to do if you want to do it; you can stay young forever if you wish to do so, or you can grow, and, honestly on your behalf, is a gift which is almost at your own disposal. Staying young and beautiful is not hard work, just that care and neatness that every self priding woman should have. There are women of 50, who begin to look old. They are not charming as to hair, teeth or complexion. They do not understand the art of self preservation—they keep clean an cleanliness is understood—that is a matter of course—but they do not know how to make the most of themselves. To regain a good complexion and make oneself beautiful is a most pleasing tank for one who understands her job, and it is a tank from which no self-respecting woman should shrink. Any one who will take the pain can make themselves beautiful. Read what Miss Sarah Smith, of Washington, D. C., writes of our Face Bleach: Prof. D. Roberts, Dear Sir!

In now, and always has been, a true friend to the colored people and has always been a great friend from them. Please read the following. Please Read the Following: New York, Feb. 5, 1903. *Dr. Dr. Ellarne* I will pen you these few lines to my book, much to much, without ache or pain, feeling fine. Feel like a sixteen year old girl. When I think of how long, suffered before I came to you, I will tell you that your kindness and for what you have done for me in bringing back my health. I remain yours truly, Sarah E. Cox, The Scholar, corner 52d street and broadway, New York. 30 Arlington Street, Newark, N. J., March, 1903. *It gives me pleasure to certify to the excellent curative quality of Dr. Ellarne, been sick for a long, time, and had taken all kinds of medicines for my complaint, and none did我 any good. I have been Dr. Ellarne's mediciner. I have trusted Dr. Ellarne's been greatly benefited—Henry Gaines. I wish to add my testimony as to Dr. Elliard's marvelous power. By some reason I was less upon my back, unable to speak, or move hand or foot. By Dr. Elliard, I was made able to walk around in less than a minute, raised from the dead—Mr. Thomas Mitchell, 224 Seventh avenue, Mt. Vermont, Brooklyn, May 3, 1923.—I went to Dr. Elliard when I was so sick I thought I would die. Dr. Elliard cured me and I was thankful to the good spirit that led me there and to God for pointing me to such a good friend to give me such reverence. 422 Hudson avenue, Brooklyn, N. Y. Newark, Sept. 14, 1902.—I wish to state that I was sick with a mysterious trouble and distress for a long time, and I understand my case. I went to many doctors, but none of them seemed to know what was the matter. None could tell me what to do. The more dful, works being done by Dr. Shea, the last few years, I thought I would call to see him myself. I found Dr. Shea and gone, and I found in his old rooms Dr. Shea and kind and sympathetic physician of wonderful insight and power, who in a short time cured me sound and well. I would recommend Dr. Ellierson to all those in sick dfuls of any kind—Moses Jones, 13 Camp street, Newark, N. J. Ellison can show thousands such as that he is educated in the best Medical Schools. Dr. Ellison's success is wonderful in Anatomy, Athropathy, Tumors, Cancer, Sore Eyes, Acupuncture, Ague, Dyspepsia, Tape Worm, Liver, Complaints, Deafness, Catarrh, Droppepsia, Difficulty in Disease, Consumption, Diseases of Women and Children, Fits, Kidney, Strangling and mysterious diseases which cannot be treated. All diseases, no matter what they may be. Nothing but honorable for Dr. Ellison will honestly tell if you can be cured. Has all new remedies and new successes. Has had ample experience in public hospitals and private Clinics. No trifling with human life. Call at 800-255-1200. A physician Diploma hangs in Paris. A new remedy for rheumatism just discovered, not a illnment. Hopeless cannot cure especially solicited to call. You cannot do business with Dr. Elmison mail. Owing to her large office practice, you must send swer letters. So please do not write, but call and see the doctor personally, or send some friend's name and place.
