The arrival of Dr. Washington and his party evoked a round of applause. After an informal reception the banqueters were escorted to the hall proper by Mr. J. C. C. editor of the journal, Dr. Alexander, who the toastmaster of the evening. Dr. Washington was accompanied by Mr. Charles W.

Before the remonstration of Dr. Washington to the complimentary remarks of the event, witty, forcible and eloquent, paying an especially high tribute to the work of whom he described as being the womens abused and most lavishly flattered man of the race, yet who was unloved by the one and unloved by the other. Mr. Edwards's speech was applauded to the echo. When the distinguished man in whose honor the elaborate function was planned arcs to speak, the great company stood the Chaundan salute. The pervading strain of the "Wizard's element address of three quarters of 70 been the value of constructive effort in the solution of the new problem greatest need at this time, argued I. Richington, in the dorsed pioneer spirit greatest original opportunities for their careers, that build up something, which would be a position which did not exist be- came creators of wealth, of opportunities, business, promotion things which are daily life. And THE NEW YORK AGE. emphasized with all the force at my command, that the acquisition of hand, the building of homes, the successful management of a bank, dry goods store, or a dairy, the cultivation of a farm, the invention of a useful piece of machinery, will solve the race problem than all the abstract theorizing that can be infused in from now until daytime. When a Negro actually creates something of value to civilization, through the skillful manipulation of black hands, backed by black brains, he has the capacity that cannot be overlooked even by his feet." Dr. Washington said he wished to see the colored business man in the great centers like Philadelphia. Boston and Chicago clubs, and thought it would be one of the most profitable of ventures to arrange a display of Negro genius and material program in some public place where the interest would be greatest. Studying the new Negro are limited, can see for themselves just what is being done. Instead of dwelling on the negative side of problems the initial need would be to find a positive side by showing his creditable achievements. There is nothing but danger when we confine our activities to compulsory work, our advancing failures, limited weaknesses. No enterprise people want to take stock in a sick man or a sick race. They want to deal with success. We must deal with the race problems, to see the race problems, solved on permanent and satisfactory lines, should look forward; not backward, should take note of the bright side, be cheerful, and be sure to front benches and constructive bends where we live in the best age are the destruction of slavery. We must not become discouraged or embittered. Study the objections furnished by our creators of opportunities follow in their footsteps to the heights. Dr. Washington took occasion to state that he was in perfect harmony with a man who was a Negro guaranteed by the Constitution, and believed in no surrender of a single atom of that which belonged to us as citizens of the Republic, but in the effort to secure our freedom. We must travel the same hard road that other races have trodden in their struggle for the riches of earth and the privileges of men. Dr. Washington was agreeably surprised at the magnitude of the business and professional development of the colony, and he helped to uphold that his visit had been most pleasant and instructive. R. W. T. WASHINGTON'S MANAGEMENT OF TUSKBEE VINDICATED Investigation of His Affairs by Alabama Legislature All to the Good. Efforts made by certain politicians in Alabama to discredit the Tuskegee Normal and Industrial Institute, of which Wood Washington is the principal, are clearly malice. These politicians grew tired of hearing Mr. Washington praised, and they resented the implications of the decision, when the success of his institution in raising young men and women of his race to higher levels of usefulness, self-respect and good citizenship, when their antagonism the purpose of the legislation other men were gone enough to insist, in the first place, upon securing authoritative official information as to the exact condition of the plant and of the obtained under the Washington regime. The expert employed by the State Examiner Harrison, has made a report that has confounded the enemies of the school and has endangered the standing than it ever had before Mr. Harrison shows in his report that the enterprise is conducted with far more business skill than most of the schools of the South, either white or black. The report sent to the managers high praise. They are commended for neatness and accuracy, and also for simplicity, and the examiner declares that the system of keeping accounts is the most efficient ever known. As the man who makes this statement is an expert accountant his testimony is the more impressive and the more gratifying to all friends of Principal Bingham and his great mission in the South — Buffalo Commercial, March 13, 1907. In fact, it may be questioned whether Washington and Tuckekee have not found a straight path in our social economy, where men are now foundering wildly—those who think to increase the stature of the people and the happiness of the country of Legislature and political action. The War on Truckekee and consists of starting at the base of all systems of improvement with a steady effort at the advancement of the individual, fourth ought to cherish the Tuckekee—Philadelphia Ledger, March 13, 1907. JAMES PARKER CRAZY. First to Seize President McKinley' Announin. ATLANTIC CITY, N. J., March 22. James Parker, a Negro who says he is the Parker who seized Crocodile when the anarchist assassinated President McKinley at Buffalo, was arrested here to allow detention. He hung through the streets all day, standing on corners and telling his story. NEW YORK, THURSDAY, MARCH 28, 1907. ITALIAN IMMIGRATION FOR THE SOUTH SOUTHERN GENT—"Walat tew buy a fa'm!" ORGAN. GRINDER'S MASCOT—"No wanta farm; wahta peepy." SOUTHERN GENT—"Well, I'll be darn!" AFRO-AMERICAN GENT—"Dat's it, fer ahuh. De Greek done meet de Greek." Demand Party Be Restored to Republicans J.B.FORAKER ENDORSED Democrat Made Referee of Republicans in State Denounced as Unjust and Disruptive of Party JACKSON, Miss., March 14.—An open revolt of the Negro element against the present leaders of the Republican party in Mississippi was declared this afternoon, when a mass meeting of Negroes assembled at the American Theatre with the aawed purpose of wrestling the control of the party from the hands of the men in whom it has been vested during the Roosevelt Administration. The revolt is led by the most prominent Negroes of the State, among them being I. T. Montgomery, Wesley Crayton, L. K. Atwood, P. W. Howard, Charles Banks, Sam Hurst, E. E. Howard, R. A. Simmons, D. W. Gury, W. E. Mollison and others. Roosevelt Simmons, a Negro politician of New York, is attending the meeting. The mass meeting was presided over by Dr. S. D. Redmond, and numerous speeches were delivered, some of which were of deep significance, members of the Negro race being urged to register and qualify for suffrage. The delegates adopted were strongly denunciatory of the Roosevelt Administration, one paragraph being as follows: In conclusion the resolutions denounce the action of the President in discharging the Twenty-fifth Infantry without consent and allowing indorsement of Senator Forker :<sup>1</sup> "We record our highest admiration for Senator Joseph Bennon Foraker, a beloved and brilliant captain of the old guard of our party, rich in great sons, and of the foremost statesmen of him who have served us with courage toward securing for these soldiers such a hearing as was compatible with simple law and justice. He has endeared himself to Republicans and those who love liberty. We send greeting to him from the Republicans of Minimispim, representant of the party who have pride in its traditions and faith in its mission wherever the flag soars." THE DOUGLASS HOMESTEAD AND THE MORTGAGE ON IT The Indebtedness. Constructed After the Death of the Great Commemorer. WASHINGTON, D. C., March 25—Since Dr. Booker T. Washington's appeal in behalf of the Douglas Memorial and Historical Association, with reference to paying off the mortgage of $3,400 on the Frederick Douglas homestead, at Anacostia, D. C., his sons, Major Charles R. H. Douglas have received many inquiries about the truth of the statement that such a mortgage rested on the property at the time of Mr. Douglas's death. It is proper in this case that the property, such mortgage was left upon the property by Mr. Douglas, but was placed upon Cedar Hill several years after his death, and the property and been purchased from the estate. The present purpose of Dr. Washington and the officers of the Douglas Historical and Memorial Association is to show that the property as a memorial of Mr. Douglas and the Afro-American people. PENROSE EXONERATED But Court Finds Soldiers of Twenty- fifth Guild. WASHINGTON. March 25.—The Senate committee on military affairs to-day received from the acting secretary of war a copy of a telegram from Brig-Gen. Mc Caskey, commanding the Department of Caste concerning the Major Penrose court martial. The telegram says that Penrose was ex- onerated, but that the court found that the "shooting up" of Brownsville was done by men of the Twenty-fifth In- firmry. The following is the text of the tele- gram: "Major-Gen. Ainsworth—Major Penrose was exonerated by the court-martial. Brownsville was done by the men of the Twenty-fifth Infirmry. Finding approved by me. McCASKey, Commander." THE "NEGRO" PRINTERS HAVE AN ASSOCIATION New York. Craftsmen Will Hereafter Pull Together.

BONAPARTE'S OPINION Governor of South Carolina',Put Him in a Hole and He Ate Humble Pie to Get Out-'Bah! WASHINGTON, March 22: President Roosevelt has received from Attorney-General Bonaparte a letter containing answers to a series of questions propounded by Governor Ansel of South Carolina, on the matter of promoting immigration. Replacing to the question as to whether it is a violation of the immigration law now in force for a State, acting through its officers, to advertise its inducements and to obtain such documents should be limited to acting for purposes offered by conditions prevailing within the State, leaving the readers to draw their own conclusions. The Attorney-General question, the Attorney-General qualified in other respects, the advertisements to be lawful, in accordance with the answer to the first officers, nor any other, and the wise solicited or encouraged the immigration except by payment of the immigrants' passage out of the public funds provided by the immigration of the immigrants would be lawful. In the third question the Governor asked whether a State, acting as such, through its officers, could accept contribution from immigration department fund, provided the department received from any contract or reciprocal agreement, and with this fund advertise its inducements and prepay the passage of any contract or agreement, come free from any contract or agreement. This question the Attorney-General says: "While the parties providing the money for the publication of the advertisements might be, in my opinion, liable to the present law), the immigrants themselves, upon the hypothesis of the third question, could not be excluded." To the fourth question, whether the former answers the affirmative generally different after the taking effect of the act of February 20 last, which goes into effect on July 1 next, the Attorney-General answers in the affirmative. The prosecution, when it is unable to change the present law in two particulars. In the first place, aliens, solicited or induced to migrate by reason of offers or promises, even when there is no contract between the parties, are liable to the person whose passage money is paid by another must be prepared to show that it was not paid by a corporation, an association, a society, a municipality, or a foreign government. All that, while the payment of the passage money of such immigrants by a State with its public funds is not prohibited, its payment of funds contributed by any society associated with the State is not to exclusion. The same prohibition, however, does not extend to the payment of passage money by individuals, whether directly or through the agency of a State, or indirectly by the agency of a good faith, and is not attended by combination or concert of action. A BUSINESS MOVEMENT IS NOW ON IN NEW JERSEY New York City Business Men Are Wide- awake and Hustling. If the Negro imagines that he is forever to be carried by the white people he should bid himself of that delusion. In the plaintest kind of language the white man has said, "Begin to strike out for the Negro, and to be the slave me by producing." In many parts of the country this kind of preachment is bringing results. The Negroen of the South are starting all kinds of business. Those who have been spending all of their money with white establishments are beginning to see that the Negro is there yet much to be done; in fact, it will take years of work, practical in its way, to get the race to see the wisdom of cooperation. The clergy are beginning to see the wisdom of mixing the material with the religious side, and they can be mighty force in obtaining results. We want all of the friends that we can get. South as well as North. The doctrine that the National Nerm Business makes difference is helpful and inspiring. While many and varied business enterprises are in the increase in the South. Northern Repos are getting on a move and doing things. At Atlantic City a guest furnishing store, under the influence of the local league, will begin operations later this month. An estimated number held by the club of last week. The helms are intending to start a millinery store, one lady offering to put in $500. At Red Bank a local Business League has been organized and after having been invited to have to be recharged with Newark held a splendid meeting at the rooms of the Y. M. C. A. and voted to take out a charter, and appointed a committee to arrange the meeting at an early date. Preliminary meeting, encouraging meeting of the U. G.联赛 was held at the Hotel Macca, Mr. P. A. Payton, Jr., presiding, and plans for a campaign of helpfulness to the business at Union Baptist church, Rev. Sinn, pastor, will be held in April. A local business league was organized in Paterson, and they decided to take a charter, and a meeting agreed upon to, be April 8, the church of Rev. J. W. MacDonald. Among those who are conducting successful enterprises in New Jersey are Mr. Williams, of Newark, has most valuable plant symbolizing, and has carpet-cleaning machines (his own patent) which he sells for $300 apiece; Mr. Williams, of Newark, has a well-established value of which is $7,000. W. E. Hopper, of Paterson, with his are handles. R. R. Tivess, telegram poles and lumber business, having large contracts to supply lumber, building materials, etc., is a lark buyer of material in the South. These men are solving the problem by doing practical things, by making opportunities for the employment of the lumber industry, by increasing the capacity of the race to do. They are the kind of men that are needed, possessing pluck, push and energy. They are all members of the Farm R. Moore Organizer. DELAWARE M. E. CONFERENCE APPOINTMENTS ANNOUNCED CATHERINE FERGUSON MEMORIAL Presbyterian at Work for an Institutional Church Here. At the meeting of the Presbyterian Minister's Association, at No. 156 Fifth avenue, last week, the Rev. John Newman, D.J. District Secretary of Presbyterian Board of Publications, stated that a movement is on foot to erect an institutional church for the Afro-American people of this city, somewhere in the United States, surprised many of his hearers by stating that the first Sunday school started in New York was organized in 1793 by a woman, who have named the cemetery Mount Tabor Presbyterian church at No. 57 West 134th street with this institutional church, which is to be called Mount Tabor Presbyterian church. ministers evinced much interest in the plan. Provisions for highclass lodgings and board, after the manner of the Hudson, would be especially appreciated. It was decided that colored people to secure board except in dianal neighborhoods. Editor Brown Acquitted. HOPKINVILLE, Ky., March 20.--The Afro-American of Hopkinsville have been considerably stirred up over the Parker-Brown libel suit, which was instituted several weeks ago by Rev. G. W. H. Browne in the C. M. K. church, against Phil H. Brown, editor of The Morning News. At the examining trial considerable testimony was introduced showing Parker to have been mixed in several shades. ```markdown ``` The Next President of the United States Is Being Worried Out by the Master of Politics. WASHINGTON, March 31—Here in Washington the long winter is done, and the spring has really begun. Some one said to the writer that the thought the heard the other, the kindled the point of a robin. Perhaps it would be breathed harbinger of spring the heard in her back yard that day, and perhaps it was the song of that "little bird in the air, singing an anonous one." For he is indicted here, and his name is "In the streets of the town is heard and repeated again and again," until the air is weighted and vibrated with the burden and excitement of it. But then they heard the sound of the streets of the town than the sound of the garrulous bird. And there other sounds are the buming and humming of the bees. They, too, have arrived and then so both the Presidential kind, and they have come with both wings. They are waving and buzzing about the White House, and they are waving and buzzing about the War Department. Meanwhile the strenuous occupant of the White House is banging nightly on his combination tin pan, and his plans Secretary of War is toiling warily around the house, and so both the Presidential kind of ultimately capturing the whole burying and buzzing brood of the white and very valuable variety of bees, which are soon to begin to lay up the Presidential honey to either and those two great enemies to either and that between them in the summer of 1806. It would not be matter for much surprise if the strenuous and masterful occupant of the White House should have the busing of this Presidential woman should lend to the body, burglar well an ear on his own account as well as that of his big and pliant secretary of Forc. Mr. Bloockett, but his more mature, well-educated, graffification of his pension for government, for the exercise of the immense energies of his mind and body. Most year he will be just fifty, with his manhood of 77, and body grievous to垂吊 on the Larges on which the manhood of fed, kind, contient it were, during the last eight by our very thought of quittin' dental offence. And in immensely busy work with all sorts and conditions of all sorts and conditions of TOP and retire to private life, most a man sick in the body of him may be taken from the intolerable dullness, the portable weariness of the terrific which will be his in such an appalling situation. And appalling the situation. And for him, if private life awaits him at the end of his present term in the President. St. St.rop The President is by no means indifferent to the peculiar buzs of that rare radiant aparium variety which has got its name from the fact that it is at present haunting the White House, and humming most seductively about the ears of its strenuous occupant. Does he heed the buzz in his ears, and will he hear it? The President is sound of the third-term hummers. The sign seems to denote that the President is by no means deaf to the crescendo buming and humming of the third-term workers, whose swarm, whether by accession or by other means, mixed up with the common variety of Presidential bees, flying and buming about the open window, at which sit and listens in the Army and Navy building the mighty mind, in the mighty body the jovial and plant Secretary of War. Who are those who desire a third term for the President? To be perfectly frank we half suspect that Mr. Roosevelt must, and after him so do the rest of officeholders, and after this big army of officeholders troop that other big army composed of all those who hope to come officeholders under the present president, and after him so do the rest of officeholders under such a generalissimo constitute negligible quantity in party politics this stage of the great game of war, the Republican nomination next; but the president is in possession of the Government, and matters of National party politics session of the offices, possession of power of distributing the National treasury, possession of the renomination of the candidate who, in, or in favor of the nomination of follower of his, in case he, the big chi declines to run for the office again. The president is the covenant power of their common hope fears, and encouraged by the same into prodigious activity in every county and State of the Union in candidate sentiment in their candidate, and "spontaneous" be the formidable force back m talk, the third term mo a force which will ha d with by every candidate for the Republican Pr on next year. For th And so the President is busy these days floating the Taft boom. He will meet with the governors of Illinois, to the White House on this particular business. He has been invited to join the Administration cabal. Ramon does not yet announce whether he will be the President's plans. If he joins the combination the part he is assigned to him in the execution of the deep-limited scheme of Illinois delegation to the National convention of 1908. But no candidate may expect to be strong in another State if he is weak in his own. And so the plot to be successful will be the candidacy of Mr. Roosevelt's pliant lieutenant and would be successor. This cannot be effected, however, without the cooperation of the National convention practically impossible. Therefore the President means to win the support of Ohio for his candidate in spite of the National patronage and by any other means or by co-operativeates of Ohio or may lay his hand on Will be succeed? Well, hardly, not if we know theATOR Foraker and the treasurer. he taz tattoo depicts the arrival of coats of White House now engraved in blowing from his long administrative pipe and infilating swith the fridescent hue of the rainbow of his political hopes and promises.

The idea that the shooting up of Brownville on the night of August 18, 1906, could be fastened on the dismissed battalion of the Twenty-fifth Infantry by firing two cartridges from each of the rifles issued to the three companies and comparing under a microscope the exploded shells with the shells picked up in the streets on the morning after the raid was ingenious, but it may be doubted whether the scientific theory will work out to the satisfaction of the War Department. The test was made at the arsenal in Springfield, Mass., and Lieutenant W. J. Hawkins of the Ordinance Department, and J. C. Spooner, expert inspector of gauges, were in charge of it. After the rifling of a gun "ring bolts" or small scratches, plainly to be seen under a microscope, remain in the chamber. They are said to differ in appearance as human thumb prints differ, and after a cartridge is fired through the barrel the reel is indented by these "ring bolts." Army experts say they cannot be mistaken in associating a discharged shell with a particular rifle when they make the microscope test. After two cartridges had been fired, the reel is indented by these "ring bolts." Army battalion the test showed that the thirty-three tell-tale cartridges picked up in the streets and alleys of Brownville on the morning after the raid which terribly exploded in four buildings must have been exploded in four of the new Springfields issued to Company B. Upon the evidence elicited or extracted by Blocksom, Garlington and Lovering of the Inspector-General's Department, the Inspector-General's Senate court-martial and taken by the Senate Court-martial man can say that a case has been proved against the battalion, while, on the other hand, the evidence that the shooting was done by the riffle of the town is slight, the evidence that the police were shooting at the Negroes who were to take the place of the Twenty-sixth Infantry (white) were not wanted, and that only threats were made against them before and after the shooting at Brownville was of frequent occurrence that there was a feud between the police and the white as well as the Negro soldiers; that the Mexican policemen wore khaki uniforms and that one or more of the takers in the case were 75 per cent. of the residents were Mexicans, many of them of a low class; that commissioned officers give Browningville a bad name, and that there is a conspiracy to fire the direction of the bullets fired in the early stage of the raid, was testified in behalf of the battalion at the Senate hearing. The next step was to connect the four rifles with the four men to whom they had been issued. But according to the testimony given at the Penrose court, the four men were the Company B, who commanded Company B and at the Senate Committee hearing by Quartermaster-Sergeant McCurdy two of the rifles from which nineteen of the picked-up shells were fired (assuming the microphone was not attached to the naked-down box which lay under a pile of iron cots in the locked storehouse of Company B when the shooting began in the town. The evidence on this point was to be exclusive. The Taft admits that neither of these rifles had been given out to men of Company B. The other two rifles were issued to Privates Thomas Taylor and Joseph L. Wilson, who if they were engaged in the real man must have firearms. The Senate Committee has submitted Taylor and Wilson. When examined by Lieutenant-Colonel L. A. Lovering, acting Inspector-General, at Oklahoma City, in the end of September, the evidence given by these men was later submitted to the Senate Committee, a quote from the examination of Private Thomas Taylor: "Q. Where were you on August 13, 1906, when the shooting commenced? A. In bed, asleep; Fort Brown, Tex. Q. What kept you in Fort Brown? A. "Q. Whereabouts is Fort Brown? A. [n quarters. Fort Brown. "Q. Anybody ever abuse you in Brownville? A. No, air; never went around," them. "I were aware that he was asleep when the shooting began, and he also averned that nobody in Brownville had abused him. The ordinance test is further compelled by the history of proving that the thirty-three shells submitted as evidence of the guilt of soldiers of the battalion were used on the night of the raid. There is evidence that empty shells could have been used to kill civilians; cartridges were surreptitiously sold in the town. The shell test having developed features that seem to reduce the raiders' ability to hit civilians that there were ten or more raiders—and the two soldiers indicated having swarm that they were asleep when the town was shot up, the Department has rather deserved than lit mystery by its Sherlock Holmes strategem. False Notions as to Certain Crimes. The attempt of an element of people to make it appear that certain crimes are peculiar to Negroes, which attempt has forbidden for some of them no doubt, by a majority of those who publicly discuss this question, from the President of the United States down, has warned no one that, while it has created a universally false and written against the Negro, the American Magazine which addresses the President of cities, who in turn had innoching still other irresponsible descrasts so solitely about slavery, has been accused of whichever state as to those THE NEW YORK AGE: THURSDAY, MARCH 28, 1907. Break in Not Appreciated—But Why? An advance copy of the unpublished report prepared by the Board of Trustees of the New York State Hospital for Incipient Tuberculosis shows what remarkable results are being obtained by the proper treatment of 108 patients who had incipient consumption when they entered this institution, 96, or more than 84 per cent, are set down as "apparently recovered" of about six months. All told, 108 patients recovered as far as could be determined and 84 had their disease arrested, while only 13 of all the patients treated showed no improvement, and of those in 12 were of advanced and aggravated form when they were admitted to the institution. These results obtained in treating 174 cases would have been declared impossible not everywhere regarded as an incurable disease, but they are results that are being accomplished here and now in New York in way that can leave no real doubt in the event the most identical and conservative. On this point the Superintendent, Dr. M. Win P. Burnham, states, "as a result of the disease at this hospital I find that incipient disease is practically unknown to the profession to our time and we engage in work to close the line and result many cases are referred and admission to this hospital recommended in disease disease is in various stages of advancement." A convincing proof that the cure for consumption lies in fresh air, good food and rest, and not in medicine, is shown in the book "The Epidemiology of We notice an annual expenditure of but $255.65 for medicine out of...a total budget of $108,640.57. The report is a credible document and the institution Bennett is proud of. We are in New York State may be proud of. It is now for them to make use of it to its full extent and to take to their hearts the lesson that it teaches, that within the community, that the Sanatorium of a size more nearly commensurate with the number of patients that should be obtaining treatment and training within its walls, in the treatment of this State have made a good beginning. For the benefit of those who might take advantage of this free hospital situated in the heart of the Adriadocka we quote from the law governing the hospital to the institution in the State hospital shall apply to the local authorities of his or her town, city or county having charge of the relief of poor, who shall thereupon issue a written request to the Superintendent of the institution of such patient. Such request shall state whether the person is able to pay for his or her care and treatment. No person should be admitted as a patient in the State institution without the certification that such applicant is suffering from incipient pulmonary tuberculosis. Such is the simple procedure necessary to secure admission to this hospital. Why not the people of our district, their lives of our daily opportunity? Why do they wait? Consumption can be cured, but its cure is hardly to be effected without skilled medical advice and training. We care that them have to best advantage in a sanatorium. Such is Ray Brook. Supervision for Mission Schools From Columbia Professional World. A bill is now pending in the Missouri Legislature which provides for the appointment of a professor of the State, and the bill should become a law. The college should have more direct supervision and the only practice it has a colored man to work under the direction of the State superintendent. The right man in the position much good for the advancement of the colored man. The principal of the St. Joseph High School, is the originator of the bill. Spring Fever Symptoms in Texas. The nearer we approach the season of the year when the song of the bird is heard and the grasshopper hums his grating wall, the less we are inclined to condone it, the less we are inclined to end up heavy load of responsibility, and to strike back at our faults. Politicians and the Tipping Habit. From The Portland (Ore.) Advocate. A great ticket is being kicked up in some politicians over the tipping habit. It's a very few politicians that have got a kick coming about the matter, for, generally speaking, light in the tipping world<sup>10</sup>. A Pun on the Preacher. Rev. T. W.

It is estimated that the Annex will be willing to pay the Annex.

From The Richmond Planet, We meet Nelson Johnson, well that Mr. Thomas Nelson, Page says, for the reason that he has the ear of the distin- guished occupant of the White House, and feels well suited to his role. The great change that has taken place in this great stateman during recent years, his color is concerned. This brilliant writer is noted for his apparent fairness and his attention to detail, and is capturing the Negro in the category of animals and speaks of him in this vein in language so sympathetic and friendly, as to our own leaders at the South. The Land Owner and the Muscle Owner. From The Google Bantist The white and colored people of Georgia are all Georgians, and all should be interested in each other's welfare. White Georgians own largely all the land, and they live in population. Colored Georgians being about forty-six per cent. of the State's population, give value to the white Georgian's land. The land owner and the muscle owner are should move them to the best of friends. True wisdom would teach the man employing them to be his friend is to his interest do so. The laborers should strive always to tender faithful service, and thus secure not only the laborers' real friendship of his employer. It is to his interest to do this.

Some of Norfolk's Prominent Men of Wealth Production of Necessities to Meet Race Needs Not Equal to Demand—More Industries. Norfolk. March 25.—Vistors from other sections of the country who will buy Afro-American enterprises of this city, while taking in points of interest in this section, will find that the ambitious class of Afro-American Norfolk and african businessmen, in nearly all cases of the wants of the inhabitants. An intelligent Afro-American's wants are infinite, and these wants must be business people and the production of these necessities must be in such quantities sufficient to meet these wants. Labor Afro-American's of Norfolk are not ready to business for their health and LENUEL W. BRIGHT. the pleasure obtainable, therefore, the means of citizenship of Norfolk must appreciate the fact that in order to open the doors of the world, the business must be among the Afro-Americans "a pair of producers working reciprocally," one furnishing the goods, the other buying the goods. "production of material from a free market is well adjusted; there is not enough. Mr. Lennuel W. Bright, a successful, unassuming and progressive man, is a factor in the production of wealth among Afro-Americans. He is always doing business, not in a whirlwind manner, but steadily and systematically; every effort bringing results. His many private estate sections of the city are an inspiration to ambitious people. These buildings are modern in architecture and equipment. Mr. Bright is now BALANCE IN EUROPE I am interested in several letters from Iceland to New York saying the New York papers published an article that the colored man was being excluded from cafes in Berlin. I wish to answer my questions in Berlin, where I have been in Berlin, but I have covered a little over 19,000 miles on this side, touching every principal city and town; in Scotland the same; in England, crossing the Channel to France, from the North of France to the South, of France to the beautiful city of Rome, returning by the way of the Alps and Modane to Paris, where I am at the present time, and I have never been refused as yet. The Champa Elysées is the Fifth avenue of Paris; go to it; do not go at my table in the place, and no one looks sidewise at me or places a screen around me. To endure what I have said I can call upon J. Henry Bailey, who is with the American missionaries in Paris. He is better known in Paris as the Governor of Egypt. If I had a place of business I would reject such persons as are being relied upon. When Afro-Americans come over here let them act decretely, and they will receive as much consideration as other Americans. C. F. TAYLOR. Paris, France. March 8. Bicken Walter's Visit. vacating 18.

Powersworth, March 20.—The joint meeting of the Young People's Christian Society of New York, March 17, was a decided success. The following program was rendered: Invocation, a program of worship, Mr. John William Jackson; coronation, a sacrifice; address of welcome, Mr. Matthew R. Jackson; response, Mr. J.

No race can rise higher than the standard set by its women. is a fact we must acknowledge, so in our upward direction, we must strive to reach them. Schenklady Note. The Crescent Club gave their second annual full-dress reception at Yates boathouse, on the 21st. The hall was very crowded, and the Yates saupper was served by Mr. William Davila, chef at Crown Hotel. The grand march was led by Mr. Thomas Rickles and Mr. Harvey. It was very largely aftered and until three o'clock all enjoyed themselves. Lost No Purge. Professor: "I always forget my pocket knife. I really need a knife in it to prepare me." John O. Nixon came of a large, thrifty and influential family, who, after emancipation, became extensive land owner. John O. Nixon entered Wilmington an ignorant young man with a determination to break down the barriers that stood between him and the public. He had time only to take advantage of the meagre opportunities for education offered in the night schools of Wilmington. But those of his fellow citizens were not so fortunate. What a great intellect was developed, what a great mind broadened and strengthened, what wonderful sensibilities enriched, what useful knowledge moldered and given to the world through that medium. Upon subjects historical, political, philosophical and ethological, John O. Nixon ranked with the best in the country. For many years, and doubtless up to the time of his death, he conducted a large and prosperous business, and was known for his philanthropy. He farnovor for the philanthropy his charisma and consideration for the less fortunate. John O. Nixon was not a politician, yet no man was better informed upon the organization of the Republican in politics, he was independent, was never so strongly allied with the organization as to be blind to its faults, and was not a sincerity of Southern white Republican leaders, and in his arrangement of them he often dipped his pen in vauon. John O. Nixon was not a sincerity of Republicanians he often said, "I seek nothing at your hands, my office is in my store," yet he was called to fill very important the government of the city of Wilmington. Although Wilmington is not ornamented by imposing college buildings it can be truly called the "Athens of the North." The city is that there is a community elsewhere in North Carolina where the craving for knowledge is so universal. In times past no community supported more literary works than the Greek. There the barber could be often seen noring over his law book and profitably dividing his time between his shop and the courthouse. There the Greek test book and the law book were apparently as apparent upon the carpenter's workbench as his compass and square, and no man's knowledge of appreciation, great and high in the law, were apparent by his calling or personal appearance. At the great literary gatherings for which Wilmington has been famous, John O. Nixon had ever been the most conspicuous and most influential Parliamentary law and of the English language he had few equals in either race. As *a* critic, as a counsellor of aspiring young men and women the philosopher in that community. St. Mark's Episcopal church must keenly miss this resourceful, generous and faithful restroom. The Church of St. Mark's and Castle Hayne will miss his kindly welcome at his store, their old rendezvous, where counsel and advice were freely given; where provender for their teams of food and implements was always readily and generously furnished by a trustful and patient creditor. We of the North miss him, miss his always interesting contribution to The New York Age, and involuntarily turn the pages to look "For the sign of a vanquished hand. And the sound of a voice that is still." Dalene League Meeting: Peckakill Notes. John West of Porkhokehee was in town last Thursday visiting friends and signed a memorial season.

One thing which President Roosevelt should sit up and take ‘note of is tha the white soldiers, officers and privates, who have testified before the Senate Committee on Military Affairs, have given the-people of Brownsville a bad reputation, in so far as to leave the _impression that few of them are ft to associate with ; again, that the white sol- iers, in. their testimony, .have for the most part, leaned toward their Afro- American comrades in arms. Indeed, as we understand it, the white soldiers of the army havpthe highest regard for ‘their black comgfades, and the officers of the latter: We invariably given them a good rerfftation. < The bac sodier has Get tess out of the army tan any other race, while ‘contributing his full share to the glory of the serge but it remained for the Roosevelt Magpinistration to undertake to degrade Mp in his honor, the only thing which tM Government could not give him and wich it cannot take away. ¢ soldier gl the army stand together, that g@ the philosophy of the thing, herfthey be black or white.

He gave the Afro-Americans a fair and square deal in his administration, which was a long ‘one, and paved the way for a permanent division of the race vote of Cook county, which had always been Republican in character. If the successor of Carter Harrison had reversed his policy ‘it would have done a great deal toward reconsolidating the Afro-American vote as Republican; but, fortunately, Judge Dunne not only stuck to the policy of his predecessor, but improved upon it. As, 2 result of his position. he has a larger following among Afro-Americans, we are. informed, than Carter Harrison had. Two of the Afro-American news- papers of Chicago and several of the influential pastors are supporting him for re-election as Mayor. As long ago as 1880 the writer ad- yocated the wisdom and the sound pol- icy Of division of the Afro-American. ‘vote in all of the country, but the race would have none of it, and gave the writer a fearful black eye for his ad- vacacy of the principle, which he ad- ered to from 1880 to 1898, but he was in the right. If the policy of division had been adopted by the Afro-American people when it was first advocated, and had been adhered to, there would not to-day be any disfranchising and sepa- ration or “Jim crow” laws in the.South- ern States, because the Northern and Western, Democrats would not have ‘stood for such, and the Afro-Americans im all of the States would not have fallen so low in the policies and coun- cits of the Republican party as to receive no more consideration and have ‘no more respect shown them than if they were so many cur dogs. The plain truth of the matter is that the Afro-American people have lost all ef the citizen rights in certain States of the Republic and all standing and in- fluence in politics by a blind support of, the Republican party. The only way that they can regain. what they have lost is to break away from the Republican party end teach it at the ballot-box that if it can get along without them they can get alor- “Mout i.

Af the Afro-American people are to recover their influence as a politcal fac- tor in the Republic; if they are to recover the respect of the American people as-a voting force; if they are to stay the tendency to male them a pariah class in the life of the Republic; if they wish to réside in this country on equality with other races of the citizenship, they must break away from the Republican party, which deserted them in 1876, and has done nothing for them since, but to leaye them naked to their enemies, and to so vote as.to make their voting count. Tux Acx is sick of the policies of the Republican party, as far as the Afro- American people are concerned, and it is disgusted and nauseated with the policy of the Democratic party. In’ many re spects the one is no better than the other. This is a stinking fact. : ——— Obild Labor:in the South. A very great stir has been made of late over thé use and abuse of chil labor in the Southern States, where the question has not heretofore been a prob- lem. The manufacturimg developmen of the Southern States. has been of such unprecedented character that it was in: evitable that the child labor question would sooner or later engage attention, as it has already done for a great.many years in the manufacturing States of the North and West. By child labor in the South is meant white child labor. The reformers who have the matter in hand care little about black child labor, or black children. The brutality of this view of the matter is brought dut in fearful relief by the indiscriminate plac- ing of children in the chain gangs along ‘with’ hardened criminals, the same as women are, when they are black, of course, The presumption in the South is that measures of reform in any direction should only have to do with white peo- ple; black people being left to look out for themselves, when class legislation does. not facilitate their degradation, or Ko to the demnition bow wows of their own misfortunes, The unusual development of factory life in the South has drawn enormously an the white labor population, which helps to account for the scarcity of farm labor which we hear so much about. as black folks are barred out of mill labor on the pretext that they cannot do it, but really because the whites consider it a higher grade of labor than farm and other unskilled Iabor, and so ar- bitracily reserve it. for themselves. Whole communities of small white farm- ers have been deserted for the factory towns, und all of the members of the family have been draited 8 earn cnough to keep the iamily pot boiling. Any, traveler in the rural South will be able to notice this fact. In a great many instances these abandoned farms have been taken over by Afro-Ameri- cans, We don't care how far this tend- cney goes, as in the end people whe own the land will dominate the people around them who own no land. It is the way of the world: Frank Munsey'e Rotton Washington taminagen: The Washington Times,san evening penny paper, established about four years ago as a contemporary and rival af The Washington Star, one of the inost fair-minded and outspoken of the American newspapers upon the -\iro- American and all other questions, has recently published two short advertising paragraphs that reveal its true charac- ter. The Washington Tsmes 1s owned and controlled by Frank .\. Munsey. who also owns and controls Munsey’s Magazine and The Scrop Book. The paper has from its inception always magnified everything tlat would tend to injure the Afro-American people. in an advertising folder, giving facts and figures for the agents and advertisers, under the caption “Washington's Wealth,” there is this significant para- graph: “Washington, the capital of the Nation, has a population of 335,000, of which 95,000 are colored, and are disre- garded in The Times’ calculations. What is said below, therefore. applies wholly to the white population.” In speaking of the character of The Time? circulation, in pointing out_some of the things that are pertinent, we find. this: "The Times has not only not sought circulation among the colored people, but it has deliberately avoided it, and in its news columns has shown em- phatically that it is a paper for white people.” Same Northern white men when they get into the Southern States seck to make reputation in the community of their adoption hy a display of vulgarity which chould repel rather than, invite the confidence and respect of their new neighbors. [1 is not necessary (0 advise the Afro-Americans of the District of Coluiphia not to patronize Fran Mun-, ey's (Times or other publications; it should he taken for granted that they Nave fenongh self-respect not to do so. But phat does Frank Munsey think of the plicy of his Washington representa- tives Does he know of it and endorse it?

GREENSBORO, March 18. A very able white editor down in the neck of the woods says, "That a bishop of the Nepalese is not a gentleman." I will go him a little further and assert that any man with the un- iversal hatred of ten millions of his coun- trymen and a loss of confidence by half of the balance, is not available for Presi- dent. In this list you might as well pro- tect the War Thief, Secretary Root whole push of Administration candidates. Senator Spooner has resigned. It's the best thing he could have done. I have had a hard opinion of Senator Spooner, as a constitutionalist, and I have had a difficulticulous to a layman in his Brownville speech. If law is based on common sense and I have to hear this denied, there is not a man in the Senate or out of it. We were told that the President's actions in the Brownville affair were illegal, whether those men were guilty or not. His actions were illegal even if every man in the garrison took part in the affair, that has taken place in the South for 40 years, the lynch came to his death by gunshots in the hands of parties unknown to the coroner's jury. Talk about conspiracy of silence, if that be a crime, does four million in the South guilty Governors of States and judges of courts, the American people, as a whole, will not stand imposition even upon the Negro. Some gentlemen will find it out after it is too late. I am sincere sorry that President Wilson will mislead him so far. The Southern whites are the greatest destroyers on earth when Northern men will listen to them. They murdered S. A. Douglas, Daniel Webster and even B. Chanahan. They will lead, and across the plains and there desert him. He hung killed Mr. Roosevelt they do with him. The speeches they make seeming for him are simply conscience easers. He will, in due time, be of power and never again be able to help them. Anything he says now flat. The crocodile teethes and wedding out our arse sincerely. I certainly had great respect for him till I saw him on. If you rent land, you must plant such stuff as the landlord says plant. You must use just as much fertilizers as he says. Now, no matter what the landlord says, the fertilizer money must be paid if it takes every penny. In hundreds of thousands of cases it has left the poor Negro or poor white man with nothing at all. The Negro will want to say that the poor white man is just as bad off. Their conditions are identical. The landlord class in many cases are not much better off than the tenant-cheap he was working at. The Negro will want to leave the farm. The poor whites to the cotton mills and the Negro to the towns. Great effort is being made now to get foreign immigrants in the South to work in the South. If any immigrants can come here and live on these abandoned farms, I say let them come, there is room for tens of thousands of them. Manufacturing is trebled in the South and not on the farms for any one. Let who will try them. There are enough Negro girls and boys in Greenboro and every other large Southern city, living on father, brother or mother, to supply the deficiency for I will ever cut out cotton, not based on fearness, but on personal knowledge, that these Negro girls can do this cotton mill work just as well as the whites here or in Europe, and would be glad to have the chance, appease the Negroes, to cut cotton mills and know full well what capacity it takes to work them. I made a special study of these superior operatives and do not hesitate to say that any ordinary Negro girl can take the places of the world going on in Europe for help when it is at your door. The only reason colored girls are not employed is because of social equality. I suggest that mill owners have separate rooms and that they can easily be done. Another reason the colored people are not drawn upon is in the whites want them reserved for cooks nurses and洗衣 women. There is a silk industry in the South. C. C. colored help. They work some thousand and more, giving entire satisfaction. Another reason for this sudden spell for foreign immigration is to balance the need for labor in the South. The Great State of South Carolina flooding in this, as it has in all other Southern communities. A woman sought in nearly every food district in the South employs, the other Southern States will follow whether it leads to glory or the grave. Take the strawberry industry in Eastern North Carolina. The true grownman clamifies the strawberry business, taking six hands, twelve months in the year to work a strawberry farm of ten acres. It will take one hundred women or girls five hours a day, the rest three days. After the harvest is over the trucker will say to the one hundred girls, you can go to h— fill next year, twelve months since. You have no further chance, there any set of girls in Europe who can substitut, lay around two months for two months' work, if so bring 'em on, the Negroes, the white ones, are looking out for the longest job and the boost pay, Mr. Farmer. Another overworked old theory going the rounds is that the Negroes will eventually die out with consumption if something happens to them. My attention was called to it by an article in the local college paper here. From the 'amount of space given to it, one would think it is a new discovery. Some people have said that the white doctors did this old stunt to a standstill. They proved conclusively that the Negroes would die out in about forty years, and thus the race problem would be solved. The white doctors being taken up revamping rot from prejudiced white writers. Instead of the Negroes dying out, we have nearly trebled themselves and crufted from Africa or anywhere else. Our solicitous white friends can't make such a showing. Advice is not the thing the Negro needs; it's example set by his own people. We have stores of all kinds and then the patronage of the race. This is worth-shiploads of advice. PETR. AFRO-AMERCAN BANKER MURDERED NEAR HIS HOME President and Vice-President Accused of the Crime. NEW ORLEANS, March 23—Edward Howell, an Afro-American, cashier of the People's Bank of Hattiesburg, Miss., was assassinated last week, days after he was hired home by Yellow Pine, a suburb of the town. Joseph Pettus and Joseph Williams, both Afro-Americans, and president and vice-president of the bank, were arrested on Monday. Howell, who was 35 years of age, had riven from a laborer in a turpentine camp an hour become one of the wealthiest Afro-Americans in Mississippi. He was greatly esteemed, especially by the whites, in the evidence by the Negroes in evidence of the law. I now develops that the safe in the batit was opened after the assassination of Lowell and $4,000 in cash the bank several times, and owes the bank taken from it. Pettus and Williams alone knew the combination of the bank vault, Williams is charged with having killed Lowell, Pettus and Williams in the murder, and having robbed the bank vault. THE RHODES SCHOLARSHIP. Two Opinipia Upon Mr. Locke's Capture of the Prince. From The New York Evening Post, a Negro has won the thistles scholarship ship at the University of Pennsylvania this year; yet "at this writing," no news has come of a social revolt in that home of lost cause. In the past, black men with a calmness that would seem perfectly astounding and suicidal to some people in this country. But in one respect the successful candidate, Mr. Hancock, has been a great speaker. He announces: "I intend to devote myself to study while in England." To be a Negro beating white competitors is bad cough; but to be a mollycoddle one's soiling, even the impossible beliefs of Oxford. From The New York Sun It will have to be admitted, even in darker Mississippi, that the award of a Rhodes scholarship for the State of Pennsylvania to Alain Le Roy Locke, a Nebraska graduate, for the examinations and stood the supplementary test of character and deportment is an incident that has something to do with the Negro problem. In an assignment, a selection clause Bain Washington said if that philosopher can feel elation, it will depress and exasperate those Southern public men whose view is that a scel. I or a university is no place for a Negro, because he avails himself with the facilities to prepare for a career of crime. We observe that Booker Washington is not discouraged by the figures of the sociologists, nor can he be brought to understand that the spread of education in the South is an anxious problem. In an address at the Harvard Union on Monday evening, his subject being "The Influence of Education on the Negro," Mr. Washington said: "I am pleased for the most part, in the south are committed by the poor and dilute Negroes, by the black man who cannot read nor write, and who does not have a cent in the bank. Today you have a degree from 'Phi Kappa Iota' Institute." Barker Washington $k^3$ doublesh familiar with the records of his graduates, and his challenge shakes confidence in the infallibility of the sociologists. One aims to tempt him to right the wrongs may help him to asset cease and postpone chase, indefinitely. the twenty-one Negress at Harvard, all of them from other States than Massachusetts, and most of them from the South, may not prove to be enemies of society when they get out. Young Lodge, who is a senior at Harvard, may "make good" when he returns from Oxford with his niece, not knowing of devoting himself "to the bettering of the conditions and general education" of his race. MOB LYNCHES TWO FOR MURDER. Taken Upon Suspicion and Executed on Allied Confermier. NEW ORLEANS. March 11—Clint Harris and Henry Gardner, Negroes, were locked at Monroe, La., early today for alleged connection with the murders and other crimes recently committed in that vicinity. They are said to have confessed to killing two Italians, Frank Lombardo and Joseph Dallin, in an alleged Negro fruit store. They implicated a third Negro, who has not yet been caught. The two Negroes were captured late in the evening on suspicion. They confessed and shortly after midnight a mob of fifty men gathered in the courthouse square. The mob leaders demanded the keys of the jail, and failing to get them broke into the prison, took out the prisoner and set it on fire in the bodies of the lynched Negroes was found this morning the sign: "Bad Negroes not wanted in Monroe."

A Splendid Tribute Paid Her by Mrs. Fannie Barrier Williams at Present Women's Convention at Recent Woman's Convention A half century ago when Frederick Douglass was beset on all sides by oppositions that seemed well nigh overwhelming, he triumphantly said: "I sometimes forget the color of my skin and remember that I am a man; I sometimes forget that I am hated of men and remember that I am loved by God." It is well on an occasion like this to invoke the spirit of the man who thus defied the contempt and scorn of his times. What we need to know in order to be brave is that beyond the every day annoyances of the men and women who oppose our progress, is the ever increasing few of those who love truth and are ever defending it. This memorial service dedicated to the memory of Susan B. Anthony is strong proof that those who work for the emancipation of the souls and body of men shall not die without honor. What narrow "pentu-Utica" was this country of curs when the mind of Miss Anthony was opened to the hateful conditions that threatened with destruction the republic founded by Washington, the Adams and their compatriots. How many splendid things have become possible since the spirit of liberty for which good became larger and more inclusive. My own position on this platform of loving memory has no other significance than that her gracious spirit survives in her followers, and that to-day the women are most in need of her kindly support, the very women for whom she was so much concerned during her public career. When Miss Anthony took up 'the cause of emancipation of American women, she did not know women by color, but by race and by west birth. She stood for the emancipation of women from the thralldom of sex. But it was not only in a general way that Miss Anthony was interested in the condition of the colored people in the society, as the champion of the specific cause of anti-slavery. She became the woman Lincoln in her hatred of slavery and in the service she rendered for its abolition. Her hatred of slavery and in the institution of slavery and non-violent abolition. She did not have to be converted to the belief that slavery was a vile thing and that race hatred was a soul brightening thing. Her love of freedom for man, woman and child was instinctive and during the half century of her unrestricted life she could be so passionate for black men as well as for white women, she never wavered, nor doubted and never compromised. The things she stood for were fundamental and without doubt they could be so practiced curiously and be so appreciated. She held it to a mockery to ask man or woman to be happy, contented or trustful if not free. In short, in the whole sweep of human experience and possibility, Anthony saw no substitute for liberty. It is not strange then that Miss Anthony knew no one by their complexion or nationality or that she need and can be in the anti-slavery struggle. The mighty men and noble women of that period like Garrison, Phillipine, Sumner, Emerson and Lovejoy, Prudence Crandall, Mrs. Stanton, Lucerne Mott, the Grimke sisters and the Jesuits, and comrades of the uncompromising Miss Anthony. She was instantly ready in season and out of season to go anywhere and do anything within human power to change human slavery. Her personal zeal in the cause was so great that she made it her business to know the colored men and women within her reach, who in them were slaves. She found in the Negro race. She found in Frederick Douglas not only the elements of a superior man, but also a concientious champion of woman suffrage. Liberty and equality were nothing. It could not be divided by race lines and sex lines. Had Miss Anthony stood for the emancipation of women, and the entailment of black men the cause of emancipation, it have been the most illogical and discredited issue in the history of moral conflicts. With sublime heroism she faced the issue honestly and with almost superhuman strength. What an awful cataclysm she faced, fighting for the freedom of the colored race: "The Fugitive Slave Law," "The Brad Scott Decision," the Fight for Free Soil in Kansas, the mob spirit that every one of us had applied to, and the color of children in public schools and the murder of Lovejoy! These are only a few of the vexations and conflicts, all of which Miss Anthony saw and felt and part of which she was. In no part of her life she was more earnest, more versatile, more effective and useful to her country and to the cause of the higher humanity everywhere than in those terrible years when she was a child. The military threw of a new birth of freedom. When slavery was overthrown and the work of reconstruction began Miss Anthony was still unwearied and watchful. She can be the model of the proposed amendment and the laws that were to give them force and effect, with unfaltering zeal. She had an intimate acquaintance with the leading and most influential members of the proposed amendment and the advice were respected and heard in much of the legislation that gave a status of citizenship to the millions of alates set free. She contended always for the larger suffrage follow freedom and the consequences will take care of themselves. Such was Miss Anthony's work, her interest and her influence that began with her involvement in the movement. Let it not be understood that Miss Anthony's work was completed when the laws of reconstruction were passed. No one, more clearly than she, saw in after that many of the things gained by the word were to be lost by political surrender." In a remarkably statemanlike letter to General Garfield, during the Presidential campaign of 1881, she spoke of his party's liberty, "the liberty," but complained: "that 'since INTO the party's congressional enactments, majority reports, Supreme Court decisions and party platforms show a retrogue movement, not only in the party, but in the nation, that felt the cost of the Negro freedom was tremendous and to take 'away' from it all the National support built for its protection, which now is less than wicked. We must personally the people for whose liberty she did so much. Most of the colored men and women who became prominent in those dark days before the '60s were proud of their bravery, of their brave hearts, she measured their moral worth and she knew their secret longings to be known and requested as a people who know and felt the meaning of honor. The autumn in which Miss Anthony was held by the colored people of the country increased with their intelligence and the intelligence of their people, and deem. Like the great Lincoln, Miss Anthy could always be seen and heard by our people. If in some places they could not get to her she would the more eagerly go to them. Her wholesome advice, her inspirational optimism, her readiness, her name and memory a cherished heritage to many an aspiring but discouraged woman of the dark race. In one of her addresses she said: "Make truth and freedom the polar stars of your lives and willilie be anything or nothing in the world's estimation; avow your sympathy with the despised ideas and then bear the consequences." At her anniversary held 20 years are in Philadelphia, she said: "I have known for the past 20 years are the struggles for human rights on this continent." in this work of living a basis of intelligence to our progress there is more of sacrifice, genuine heroism, treachery and romance than you can imagine. So great is our passion and anxiety to be known for the good we do and assure to do. Shall then this new woman of our own country be shunned and mistrusted? Is she to come untrammeled into the domain of that more inclusive citizenship for which Miss Anthony contended for her life? Is this woman in whose behalf I speak, and whom I all too feebly represent on this platform of equal suffrage, is after all an American woman. The best instincts of average ambition pulmate in her brain and heart, it is true she is not fair, but she is not true. Her crisis, you will find that these women, who have always been forced into the background, will come forward to save the day to virtue and intelligence. The women of my race have never failed when tested in the things that count in human life. The women of my race are none too rich in the subtleties of supreme merit, and our American music which has not yet reached the classic levels may yet need for their greater variety and deeper soundings that which may yet be written into them out of the self-encintrated race. It is easily within the range of possibilities that the next extension of suffrage in this country will be brought about by the enfranchised women. The colored women will the next generation with their enlarged intelligence, with their fresh enthusiasm to be an effective part in everything that makes life better, and be depended upon to follow the leadership of this organization. You will find that these women will bring to the high cause of equal suffrage not ignorance but intelligenza and partisanship but patriotism, not the spirit of office seeking, but of law enforcing. In conclusion let me, in behalf of the women whom I have the honor to represent, in the spirit of office seeking, again remind you that the men and women who have done most for the Negro in his struggles from slavery to freedom and civil rights, we would invoke, again remind you that the men and women who have been most enabled in our civilization. Indeed, the men and women who fight for the cause of the oppressed in forum or battlefield will all hold the honor places in American history. Let me also in behalf of colored women plead with you not to allow yourself to shrink from the idea of universal suffrage on account of our ignorance. I need to be a political sin in this country, have been committed not by ignorant men, but by men who can read and write, who have been to Sunday school and who are past masters in working out any problem in the algebra of fraud and graft. We have been told that colored women, like the best white women, always insisting upon the rule of the intelligent and competent. We have an ever-increasing number of progressive women prepared to do high service in the cause of justice. In this behalf I confidently invoke the spirit of Susan B. Anthony that we be given a woman's chance to prove our worth in every sphere where the mind and heart can unite to increase the power of love and enlarge the reign of justice in this alliance. BARRIER WILLIAMS. King Menelik of Abyssinin Bestows it on Plus. Rome, March 21.—The Pope today received in solemn private audience in the Throne Room Father Maria Bernado of the Capuchin Order, who presented the pome with an autograph letter from the Menelik of Abyssinin, conferring his holiness the decoration of the Star of Ethiopia. The letter was an answer to a communication from the Pope, who asked the Abyssinian king to protect the Catholic in Abyssinin, and inquired regarding the majesty, and the progenies made by Abyssinin. Cardinal Gotti, prefect of the propaganda, presented Father Bernado to the pontiff and was present during the audience. The Capuchin made a short address, to which the pontiff replied in applause, and visited the papal secretary of State, Cardinal Merry del Val.

A Virginia Democrat, the Charlestown Progress, advises the Democratic party to nominate Mr. Roosevelt in 1908. The swift progress of political tolerance in the South is shown by such a proposal; and still more vividly is shown the absolute bankruptcy of the Democracy. Absolute bankruptcy, for the Democracy consists mainly of Mr. Bryan and his theories; and all of these that have any political value are the result of a practical rival, as good a politician as the Lincoln Lincoln is an emotional actor. Seventeenth as the Virginia proposition may blind it. If the Democratic party is nothing but Bryanism, the Democrats may as well turn to the successful and popular adapter Lee. If the Democratic party is the South has a lingering sentimental attachment, a poetical feeling never amounted to, and a lack of warmth that felt has not yet become so thorough a paternalist as the friend of Government. There is no excuse for two Roosevelt parties; and poor Mr. Bryan is but the mollions of the athlete. If it could be a Democratic party Mr. Bryan and his populistic lust must be thrown away.

Thomas Simms to Deliver One of Class Day Orations. From The Buffalo Express.

Letter Carrier Arranged on Charge of Opening Hall—Church Services on Palm Sunday and Hinson. New Haven, March 11, 1918, whose first visit to the church were assured of last Monday night at their meeting in the church where he was repositioned. The re- stations has not been accepted as yet; in the meantime he has been asked by the church to return it. Rev. Mr. Headerson has been called by the Bishop of Georgia to be a minister. He has held the title incumbent upon him to yield to this high honor which has been conferred upon him. He is well-qualified and appreciated his philanthropic worth, his devotion to his work, and his enthusiasm, but weak symbols in conveying an idea of the deep rebellion of regret manifested by the past. However, it is hoped by the church and community that he will reconsider his relegation. The very selfless, grand and great beauty bids him stay.

Some came to him for Luke's church and in the church of the Ascension (white), and his contribution to the local stage, both colored and white in Luke's church and sang in the choir for a good many years, and at one time filled the church with success. He has the deepest sympathy of every soul who knows him, and they all may be may be able to prove himself virtuous.
