PHILADELPHIA, April 23.—Miss Anna P. Jones of this city, by deeds of gift deposited last Monday, created an endowment fund of $1,000,000 in perpetuity, the income from which is to be applied toward the maintenance and assistance of elementary schools for Negroes in the Southern States. It is said to be by far the largest single gift for public elementary school purposes ever donated by any chapelist in this country.
Doctor T. Washington, president of Trussell Institute, and Hollis Burke Prison of Hampton Institute are appointed trustees of the fund, while the Pennsylvania Company for Insurance on Laven and Granting Annuities of this city is appointed the focal agent of the trustees.
The following is the text of the devine: Know all men by these present: That I, Ann T. James, of the City of Philadelphia, trusting and believing in the practical and far-reaching good that may result from the moral for Negroes in the Southern States, taught by reputable teachers, so hereby make, constitute and appoint Booker T. Washington, of Tuskegee, Alabama, and Holly Burke Friend, trustee in the trust appointed and created as herafter directed, the trustees of an endowment fund in perpetuity of One Million ($1,000,000) dollars, which is hereby to be made to the Bureau of Schools for Southern Negroes, the income thereof shall be devoted to the sole purpose of assisting, in the Southern United States, community, country and rural schools for the great class of Negroes and North American schools are alone available.
In consideration of the premises therefor, I hereby give, grant, transfer, set over and assign unto the said Booker T. Washington and the said Hollis Burke T. Washington and the said Hollis Burke T. Washington absolutely all and every, the security and cash to the amount of one million dollars, set forth specifically in the list hereunto annexed and made a part hereof, marked "Exhibit A." The empower, and direct the Booker T.

And further, I request that both the said Booker T. Washington and the said Hollis Burke T. Washington be the members of the said board of trustees.
Should, however, the said Booker T. Washington or the said Hollis Burke Prinsell die or decline to serve before they shall have established the board of trustees of said endowment fund, or if for any reason, the same shall not be constituted by them within a period of six months from this date, then, and in that event, I request and empower the trustees of the Hampton Normal and Agricultural Institute and the trustees of the Tuskege Normal and Industrial Institute to select and create from members of their own boards a special board of trustees of such number as they may deem best, to act as trustees of the said endowment fund in perpetuity hereby created; and I direct that such board apply the income upon the said fund in like manner solely toward the maintenance and assistance of rural, community and country schools for the Southern Negroes and not for the other benefit of large institutions, but if the purpose of rudimentary education hereinabove referred to and to encourage moral influence and social refinement which shall promote peace in the land and good will among men.
In witness whereof I have hereunto
appended that this 23d day of

ANNA T. JEANES.
The following statement has been made by the trustees:
It is impossible to express in proper terms the gratitude of the Negro people as well as of the whole country, to Miss James B. Moore, the principal in giving one million dollars to assist in the education of the Negro children in the South in the small rural schools. This fund will greatly aid local communities in the education of the Negro children in the South; it will, however, induce other people to give money for the same purpose.
Through the wise use of this fund, we believe an object lesson in the way of the best education in many counties in the South. The interest from this fund can only aid a few schools in each State, but these being made object lessons can influence the character of education throughout a single county.
While we cannot speak definitely, we feel quite sure that it will be the aim of our work to sympathize and close cooperation with the county and State officers in assisting schools, and that it will be the policy of the trustees to use the interest of this fund not replace local schools, but supplement the money being appropriated by Southern States toward the education of the Negro. The States, we feel sure, will be encourage because of this gift.
We think it cannot be too emphatically stated that not one cent of this money will go to help the Hampton Normal and Agricultural School, the Normal and Industrial Institute, and will in no way relieve the pressing needs of these institutions, but every cent will go toward helping the rural schools, according to Miss Jeanne's wish and directions.

THE NEW YORK AGE.
Washington, April 21—It has come to pass that distinguished Afro-Americans cannot call upon the President without having the object of their visit misstated by the newspaper. Only a short time ago a statement was sent out that the President had called upon several bishops of the A. M. E. Klan church to have their sight on the President headed off on account of the Brownsville order. Bishop Walters and Bishop J. W. Smith deny the whole story. Now The Washington, Post of the 18th instant comes following dischernay by Bishop A. Grant:
Bishop Abraham Grant, presiding bishop of the fifth Episcopal district of the A. M. K. bishop, and president of the Episcopal church, now in union in this city, was much surprised to read in an afternoon paper a statement regarding his visit to the White House with Bishop Galine and Register servant. The afternoon paper, which was written in the Episcopal bishops are men of influence, politically and otherwise, and are said to be willing to undertake the task of dictating the New York vote back to the Administration. "Because of the President as to me and those accompanying me," said Bishop Grant. "We indored Rev. O. J. W. Scott for a chlamyline in the army, but his appointment was not approved." Bishop Galine said that independent our visit ended. "I did not express myself regarding the colored vote of the country. The entire story is white, and I argue that a place of worship should be White." Bishop Galine made the occasion for a disposable discussion in a daily paper, and that I should be placed in the attitude of opposing Senator Foraine, for whom I have a great interest. Bishop Galine is one of the best friends the Negro has in America to-day. Such has been his record for the past thirty years. Vice-President Falkbanks is a fellow town clerk in the Episcopal church, whose high character and acknowledged ability I much admire.
BISHOP WALTERS LECTURES
AT ZION A. M. E. CHURCH
Makes Fine Address Before Large and Euthanistic Audience—Social Notes
HARRORD, Conn., April 23—Bishop Alexander Walters, D. D. of Jersey City, N. J., spoke at the A. M. E. Zion church on Tuesday evening, April 10, before large and enthusiastic audience. His object was "The Saving of a Race." The fearless Bishop talked in the most aggressive and scathing manner of American social and political forms, in answering how the white people can earn a moral race. He in turn said, "I have come to believe since reading the rottenness of the Thaw trial that there is something radically wrong with the white people, whom came to see me and white Negroes." Speaking of the Negro's relation to his political advisors, Bishop Walters said: "The Negro has followed the advice given him to be brutal to acquile property and business interests. There is the straight Republican ticket. But I am tired of doing all and getting nothing, and the Republicans take our votes but the chance even comes. I am going to get the votes, but does not help us when it can!" It is a sign of the times to see one of our race who can be reckoned as a public man stand up and boldly defy the Republican party. We would heartily second Bishop Walters' sentiments, but it would be private matter, too strong to use publicity for fear of endangering their positions or future prospects. Bishop for his sterling address, and is quit sure that when he withdraws his support from the Republican ranks he will have plenty of company. Too many African votes have been thrown away. Let every one count when another chance is given.
On Thursday evening last the Zennic Arrests Tent, No. 208, gave a reception to its many friends and admirers at City Mission Hall. Those who attended enjoyed the utmost the program given by the little members of this society. It would be hard to find a prettier picture than that these children with their dinners, arranged in double rows to form a horsehow with Mrs. M. Y. Harrington, G. Q. M. of Cambridge, Mass., in the robe of her office, seated on the platform. Great eredit is due Mrs. Ella Daniels, Queen Mother, and Mrs. Elizabeth Christian, V. Q. M. for their work with the children. Ten years of hard work and patience on this site have been organized to try great efforts in an organization to be proud of. No work among our people can be so fruitful or satisfying now or in the future as the developing of the talents and the characters of our younger minds. It is next to impossible to have our men and women see the necessity of united action. The reason the men of our race today are so well organized to try great efforts because they did not know what collection meant until manhood was reached. Let those among us who are fitted devote their time and energy to preparing our children for that time when they shall become active factors of our race. Now is the time to try and place our race on a solid basis: let us give the best that we have to the children, teach them the value of the children, and the future of the社群 of saving money, and the future of the Negro in American civilization will solve itself.

COMMISSIONER
The only men who are not in wailing distress are those who voted for the de-
fense. These men, and there is a considerable number of them, have the courage to say that they would do the same thing again, same kind of principle were in-
rolled.
Trustee R. C. Bedford passed through the city last week on his way to Tuskegee. He had just returned from Topeka. When the news came to the city, he had an opportunity to make a note of the meeting. The August meeting of the National Negro Business League, to be held in Topeka. Mr. Bedford says that the preparations for the leagq meeting are most generous and the indications are that the meeting is a great success. The meeting is attended to at the attendance and importance. It seems that the whole State has become interested. The white as well as the colored are showing much interest in working together for its success. The officials of the城市 business联盟 are told that the meeting was for entertaining the delegates with much enthusiasm. Mr. Bedford also reports as a result of close observation that there is everywhere manifested a most cordial feeling between the races. The meeting was held in the city of Topeka, where the use of their magnificent rooms for a meeting of the Afro-Ameriens business men of the city, which was addressed by Mr. Bedford. The Tuskegee representative was amazed to find such a large numbness of the city, which was the result of various kinds of business enterprises. The Topeka League is arranging for several executions to nearly points of interest. Among the places to be visited is Lawrence, the seat of the Kansas State University. The meeting was also attended to by a number of Western people who went there under the leadership of John Brown. The State University located in this place will be a great surprise to the people of the city. The meeting was wonderfully interesting, and is perhaps more typical of Western ideas and the Western spirit than any other university in the country. The number and variety of things taught in this great university are so great that it is hardly possible to contain in the curriculum of Tuskegee and the higher things of Harvard. The school is not only big in the extent of ground covered, number of buildings and its thousands of students, but the number of students in the college is so high as to represent a great majority of the people. There are about sixty colored students, there now and those who have graduated have proved themselves to be among the most progressive and up-to-date young men of the higher grade. Prof. Place, a color of the same color as the color of the city, and has an enviable reputation among scientific men as a botanist.
It is certain that the visiting delegates to the Topekon convention are to meet with many pleasant surprises. The colored men who are make and virile citizens. The spirit of thrift, of enterprise and self-forth that has characterized the pioneers of this Western country, has not been possessed wholly by white men. The men who are make and virile citizens than a quarter of a century ago can be easily traced in a manner that reflects great credit upon those first pioneers of dissatisfied colored people. In every direction the people deal of city property and are engaged in many kinds of business enterprises, and seem to be thoroughly abreast with everything that spells progress. They have taken good advantage of all the school and university facilities to the great university. They have their full share of the rough and hard work in taming the wild West. They have helped to build the railroads that traverse every direction in this boundless empire. They have made the cities and villages and have made the mountain side and valley bloom with the fruits of their industry. In all these Western States delegates will find collaboration and experience earned by the exhibition of the very best quality of manhood. Hundreds of our young men and women who have taken advantage of the exceptional educational privileges have gone South to the cities and villages to raise the race. Of course the National Business League has learned much of the secret of raising potatoes through the potato king, Mr. Groves, yet it will find that other things quite an interesting and pleasing experience that awaits the delegates to the coming convention in August.

Hahn Fired Out of County Committee for Parrell. Wow!
Chairman Herbert Parsons will still reduced the Oddell-Quiggs forces in the Republican County Committee last week in the Thirteenth Assembly, and getting the Parsons delegation headed by John J. Farrell.
Gilchrist Stewart, the Negro politician who became known through his activity in to Brownysville, Tex., to make a personal investigation of the conduct of the diminished Negro troop, and who is a member of the ousted delegation, devising digging from the White House, and an example of "Lily White" political methods practiced in the South.
Mr. Stewart declares that it was the first time a colonel was digged by the Republicans of the city. The district represented by Hahn has the largest Negro vote of any in the State, and contains San Juan Hill, the ninth settlement on the west side, above Fifty-ninth street.
"I know that orders have been issued direct from the White House that my political activity be curtailed," he continued "the Big Chief dislikes the action I took in the Brownsville matter, and he also downed Taft and to work for the great Republican Senator, Joseph Benson Foraker. The Big Stick at Washington hasn't been able to shut me up and I am not going to shy at any little sticks. I ask you to forget that I am working for Foraker. The Big Stick at Washington has been Brownsville matter, and do justice in this matter. I once though Mr. Parsons was too much of a reformer for his job, but now I doff my hat to him, for he can give all the old-time politicians cards and spades in rough-housing it. All the Newspaper district in the State voted for Theodore Roosevelt. Now not one of them would vote for him."

THE ORIGIN AND GROWTH OF THE
ALPHA PHYSICAL CULTURE CLUB
Only Club in New York Tweeting Scientific, Physical Training.
The Alpha Physical Culture Club held a celebration on Friday, April 19, at Palm Garden, in honor of the completion of the third year of its existence. During this period the club can point to a remarkable experience. For its participatory work in a new field and to men less deterred by obstacles would have been insurmountable.
In the spring of 1904 a few young men were discussing with Dr. John Morgan the fearful ravages of consumption and pneumonia during the past winter. A cycle in New York daily paper had statistic from statistics of groves in the North suffered more from these diseases, proportionately, than did the whites. This fact was not due to unsanitary living, for the colored woman is an excellent housewife. But as there were no opportunities among colored peoplethey had no physical exercises tending to develop strength, the chest and lungs, the disease germs found them ready victim.
So it was decided to form a club which would afford some opportunity to our people of scientific physical training. And although this big city teems with athletic clubs of all kinds, recreation center gymnasiums, Y. M. G. A. gymnasiums, Settlement gymnasiums and places and schools gave, in this club, was the first, in New York, with only one of its kind in a community of hundreds of colored people. Hence its name—Alpha.
With five or six members, and a room in Rev. II. Miller's church house, the club began its career. Regular exercises were taught, and talks on physical culture given to the members. Then dumb, Indian club and calisthenic work were taken up. When the weather permitted outdoor exercises were performed, and long walks and runs enjoyed.
So, with the time of their first entertainment there were 25 members in good standing. The club had a name—the
In April, 1806, the second year of its growth was celebrated. Many vicissitudes were passed through and yet the members were in the thirty-five, and a small sum was paid to the treasury. The chief difficulty to be surmounted was finding of suitable quarters. The club struggled on, gaining ground continually. The members were indefatigable.
Finally, about four months ago, suitable accommodations were secured. In C. C. was last at the Alpha P. C. was at last at the plans. There they have at last succeeded in equipping a gymnasium. This is given a medical examination to determine. Then he is set to work at such apparatus will best benefit him. At certain nights each week regular class work is taken in gymnasium through exercises with the dumbbells. Intense or wands. These drills are scientifically arranged so as to use and develop every $80 to $40 for such exercises in the private gymnasium.
Then, should he desire, the novitiate can wrestle, box, fence, and so forth, to his heart's content. Music is provided in the gymnasium by the club's piano, and the whole place is lighted by electric lights in the rear the men are furnished with skates and after the entertainment, hot and cold will be installed. Opportunities for reading and enjoying quiet are also afforded in the sitting room.
All the members belong to the best claim of colored people in New York and surrounding cities. In another article we will tell some of the plans for the future.
WASHINGTON. April 22.—Several days ago the architects of the Treasury Department asked that the Secretary dismiss all kinds of infuriate American architect. All kinds of infuriate American architect. Secretary Correlson and President Roosevelt get to them to consent to a transfer or dismissal of this Afro-American, but Secretary Correlson and the President and meet the whole matter has quieted pressure and met the President is at his post and will remain there.

Many persons ask, What will you do

of like character. My general answer to
all these questions is, that I am very

men to-day, and while strength lasts
I shall continue to work with my might.
I am planting potatoes, all sorts of
tables, including grain, setting out fruit
trees and shade trees, laying out walks
through the woods, chalking ducks and
pigs, and above all breathing freedom
to the full.
According to Oster, I should now wholly retire, drink hemplock or take chloroform, or else quietly await the summons to lie down amid pleasant dreams; according to Steward, I shall do neither. I enjoy life too much to be in haste about putting it off, and when I keep still I get sick. How delightful it is to work until one is really tired and then fall in bed and sleep like a log to be awakened, as I was this morning, by the eminent song of the brown thriller; to pass the day in company with the larks, the robin, the yellowwheeler, the greedleans and the bluejays, without their swift and graceful movements and twisting to their varied songs and conversations. And then, one forgets, she, ago, his life and himself as he sees all nature clothing herself in her beautiful garments preparatory to the trimming with flowers soon to come. Ah! nature's dreammaking and military, who can sufficiently admire them?
All things earthly move in cycles, and to this law man's life is no exception. Released from the army and temporarily revert to youth as normally as the rabbit doubles to his form. I start out again as I did at first over forty years ago. Amid a thousand reminiscences this second beginning is not less interesting than the first, and parents, around me loving brothers and sisters, and before me an inviting prospect; now, I have in my possession the reminiscences of byeone years, with my brothers and sisters, sweet remaining, and around me still amoving brothers and sisters and friends of my early days with hearts yet young and gay. To compensate for that bounding of my heart, I have new the immense golden capital of tried and proved friendship.
No: I have not retired to pawn the days in vain regrets, nor merely to "learn to labor and to wait": to but live, labor and enjoy, and to preach Jesus by exhibiting the goodness of God, and be ready to give the helping and the glad hand to my fellow man.
I accept the cordial congratulations which have come to me with profound thankfulness, and I desire to send out. to all my friends and wish wonders my most good friend with the motto: Labor on till the close of the day. T. G. STEWARD.
Mann Meeting at Bethel to Aid Georgia Institute.
Several speakers pleaded fervently for the Negroes of the South, more particularly for the younger generation who are being borne at Atlanta, Ga., at a mass meeting held in Bethel church, in West 25th street. Bishop Derrick of Ohio and Pennsylvania.
"The fight to free the black man in the past was a great one," the bishop said. "It will be as nothing to the conflict of the future. The future will be a fight of the black man to the rest of the black man must be to render skilled service, not to work merely. Any horse can work. The thing is to work with skill—have mind behind it. Do you wantpathy; demand justice. If any man offers to let you carry some coal into his cellar for a dime or go to his back yard and get a meal free, carry down the coal. He a man. Earn your money then dominate. Don't be jealous of your race or your color. I found a young man blubbering in a Southern city once. When I asked him what he was crying about he answered, "I'm sorry you were overburn." I reply, "You might be as white as I replied. You might be as big a fool as you are now." D R. D'Simon, vice president of the Morris Brown College, explained that the Morris Brown College was founded in 1881 by the colored people of the State of Georgia for training colored youths and girls. The institution, he was located in the Eastern section of Atlanta.
"The object of Morris Brown is to reach the boys and girls from the plantations," Mr. Stinson explained. "It is not our intention to make society people who are not interested in functions or rush them into the cities, where they are too often destroyed by the temptations, but return them to their homes in the country from which they came, that they may become tillers of the city, and that they may be good girls, an rule, prove to be most worth our schools, especially those who have been reared upon the farms with good honest Christian parents. The girls, as a rule, make the best women, housekeepers, or do the work for themselves, but in the service of others." It was explained that $40,000 is greatly needed for a dormitory for the boys, and a model home and laundry for the girls. Carnegie has already promised $12,000 to the remainder of the $40,000 is obtained. A collection for the fund was taken up. Prof. William L. Bulkley, principal, made a practical and interesting talk on the accomplishments of the colored people of the plantations. Frasier of the New York bar road a stronger paper on "Education the Factor in the Substantial Uplift of a Race." The large audience listened attentively and to be greatly in sympathy with what was being done and done for the good of our people.
Some of the larger contributions were: $200 given by Mr. J. F. Thomas, who is in the employ of Harry Fisk and Sonny Rears; Mr. M. L. Franier, $150; the Metropolitan Merchant and Realty Company, $125; Mr. Philip A. Pavton, $45; Henry J. Griffin, $48; Mr. Henry D. Klein, $48; Mr. D. Klein, $48; Dr. J. F. Mitchell, $5; Mr. Addlin Boyd, $5; Mrs. Anne Lloyd, $5; Mrs. M. S. Smith, $5; and a table collection, making the total $1,017. Dr. T. W. Henderson, and his congregation are to be held in Morris Brown College and Dr. Simmon.
The Southern Negro Congress convened in Gree- ville, Miss. April 6, in the court house, with President and Mrs. W. Scott of Greenville, Miss., as secret. It continued in session three days, discussed the development of the N. race. It would be well to see a co- ordination of the N. race and the error Vardaman to let him see that nothing can stop the development of the Negro. law on the nameless crime scene to have been modified somewhat later in Mississippi. Herefore if a man was accused and convicted of rape, or attempted rape, the penalty had to be either death or if the imprisonment of the man in the crime scene was the jury's命en him to the mercy of the court, it is discretionary with the judge to sentence him to the penitentiary for a few years. The crime scene is instantly convicted with Philip Keller, colorless, convicted of attempted rape on Miss Savannah Nell, colored, and upon the recommendation of jury was sentenced to five years in the prison. The man then been white and the man black the man would have trampled with contempt this law under its feet and burned or riddled the Negro with bullets. Any man, black or white, with a rape or attempted rape, should be legally even the severent punishment of the law.
Dr. E. W. Lampton, the brainy and successful financial secretary of the A. M. E. church, is quite popular with his ministers, and he is the most popular of all. He is a “empireal lightning will strike him at his next general conference.” The South with cheer is lining up for him. He is worthy. The Memphis Commercial Association, the South of his name, is the most of a large number of representative Negroes, held April 17, at Clarksdale, Miss. Charles Banks, cashier of the Negro bank at Mound Bayou, Miss., and E. J. G. Gundry, the head of the American Institute of the Religious Freelances to the general conference of the A. M. E. church, which meets in Norfolk, Va., 1808, to elect three new bishops. Resolutions were adopted inforcing Dr. E. W. Lampton of Washington, D. C., as one of the first to have aన్నిధి of his class.
A Negro lawyer, E. M. Johnson, outwitted the sheriff and created quite a stir in the Circuit Court of Jackson, Miss., last week. He was fined 3100 by Judge L. S. S. for a year of good conduct, and being to pay it was jailed. Next morning when court opened he was on hand. The judge was surprised and asked the sheriff why he had liberated. Johnson before he had worked in some peculiar way to get what was supposed to be a “supersedensors bond” to secure his release from jail, and he, the sheriff, thinking it was all right, was called to the court for a year of good conduct. The judge then asked the colored lawyer to his authority for such a bond, and he said he found it in the law. “Then it is a question of who is supposed to know the sheriff?” he asked. “The law should not be read by a man who has a judge. It is all right to say that, with such a latitude, and you will stand committed for contempt until that fine is paid. Mr. Sheriff he is in your custody,” and the sheriff doubtless feeling that this shrewd man should be a “prodigal,” he said. “The law is much more margled him back to jail.”
As the brainy and aristocratic Hon. John Sharp Williams continues to swipe with refinement and cruelty the keen sword of Damocles for the shaggy gore of his men, and the vitally bloody, the conviction in Mississippi among leading white and colored citizens continues to grow that Mr. Williams will win out in the race for United States Senator. Mr. Vardaman, in his first campaign, around in his shirt sleeves with one gallon on and the other hanning down, among the white farmers and other laboring men, mounted the platform and, in his fierce campaign speeches, mixed cautious and large doses of burglarizing for the Negroes, prophecying that he intended to make them work for white people for nothing, which fine promises dazed the voters and caused man who was ever overly proud of man Mimiissimin. Since he could not carry out his promises, the voters have but little if any faith in his promise to have the fifteenth amendment repealed if he could not have done so. What Abraham Lincoln said about some and all the time, come vividly before them.

Have you read the above interview carefully? Whenever the salaries of those who are teaching the higher education are reduced, and those who are teaching the industrial in the same school are raised by white women, Nicewomen to sit up and take action. Straws show which way the mind is blowing. Mississippi, under the administration of Governor Vardaman, met the pace. Let us see if any other Southern State will follow in its wake. Education will follow in its wake. The governor, the governor, and Adolmity intended for Governor Vardaman to tell the cell just as much as He did for the Negro. We can prove our point as easily as he can prove him.
PROPER HOUSING IN PHILADELPHIA
Political Insights Brought to Bear on an Economic Problem.
From The Philadelphia Courant
The proper housing of the Afro-American population in Philadelphia yet remains a challenge. Our reference briefly in the last issue of the Courant to the matter has been cause for favorable comments from many of our readers respecting the suggestion of the Courant of some of our Afro-American Realty companies and restoring the tie to Afro-Americans.
The success of the Afro-American Realty Company of this city, which has recently declared a dividend after only one year's existence, convinces us that there is money to be made in such a venture, and the nation of interest properly and judiciously directed can accomplish.
This is similarly evidenced in the success of the Metropolitan Mercantile and company Company of New York, both of which instances prove our contention and
situations where race variety in this city is so heavily housed, or pays higher rentals, and leaves less accommodations and comforts than the Afro-American. As a result of this, this has been an increased mortality rate among African-American companies refuse to take risks these at excessive rates. The Afro-American people of this community are suffering, not only in this particular, but many and varied other disasters. Property values, it is claimed, depreciate in value, school facilities and accommodations are circumscribed, employment is being denied, rents advanced, all on account of congested population of Afro-Americans in certain localities into which they are forced. This comes from the fact that houses are hard to rent in desirable and respectable localities, excepting where colored people are living and have a monopoly, and that is limited.
While this is an economic problem, it has a political significance that is far-reaching, which the Court wants to emphasize, which the Afro-American population, if the Afro-American population used, could realize, might, if properly used, effect a greater present and future conditions, so far as we are concerned, and somewhat, if not solve, the problem of house-setting in Philadelphia, providing the Afro-American voters who supported the Republican election last February have as much power and influence as they assume or assert. For example: More than a half dozen leading white Republican leaders in the Twentieth Ward own most of the tenement house in a certain section of the Seventh Ward, and many of their houses in other parts of the city. They willingly rent Afro-Americans homes in the Seventh Ward, but instruct their agents not to rent Afro-Americans houses anywhere else. The reason is plain and self-explanatory. This is a condition not only existing in this particular section, but is general all over town, notwithstanding much of this accumulated wealth and power of these large property owners and agents has been possible by these same Afro-Americans.
Another case in point of a former City Treasurer, dyed-in the wool, Republican, so owned blocks of two-story houses in the city, but not only refused to rent, but absolutely declined selling to Afro-Americans. This is the condition in part at present, at least in Philadelphia, so far as the house of Americans is concerned. To change it.
While these are cold and uncompromising facts, they must be settled by the Afro-American through his political power and influence.
On the 10th, it was we went to White Plains to take a view of the motor road and the motor. There we found Mr. T. J. R. Faulkner and Mr. Newman hard at work for the company, trying to get things in order for general use. We took a walk up the road and found a very good road for the purpose for which it was built. The next day was Sunday. Mr. Faulkner entertained us that day. We took a ride on the motor car. Mr. Faulkner handling the motor. It is a very convenient and helpful improvement to that part of the country.
Mr. Newman, an engineer from England, came out to regulate and put the machinery in order and he is to return to England. He is quite a clever man.
Mr. Faulkner is the company's general engineer, and not only that but he seems to be the general depending all those who are launched in Monterredo. Thus, by the Government launch was inactive for months so much so that an engineer from the steamship was called to examine the launch. He did so and advised that the engineer be boxed up and sent to the top for renites. For that advice he
ASBURY PARK, April 21.—Open warbitter, unrearing war with the dogs looses and the alternative of a universal strike in the ranks of the Asbury Park fire department, hangs on the disposition of a petition presented to council last night by Howard Hulick, organization from the department organization of the colored company of Springwood avenue (Burke), which was described by Mr. Hulick, the only colored fire company in the State.
There was very little of the mincement variety in the plain unvarniashed and unapologetic discourse of the spokesman, who recited the disaffection of the white firemen and their unalterable determination to stop down and out if the colored Burekas were longer recognized or continued as a constituent part of the department.
On the other hand, it was apparent from the impressive colored representation in the council chamber that deep resentment and possibly practical reprisal would follow any attempt of council to omit the Eureka company from the plan of reorganization. Though the colored representatives were quiet and dignified and subdued in their reception of Mr. Hulick's alternative, it was evident that they felt strong to the raising of the color like their own probable suspension from further corporate existence of the organisation which, with great success, assisted by William H. Leonard; had fought the fire fend for 12 years not only in the colored district but throughout the township.
As Mr. Leonard expressed it in slow, deliberate and impressive manner: It is true we are black, but we have feelings and comes day you may be the back faces they you now seek to turn from your doom.
Mr. Hulick in presenting the case dwelt with solenm emphasis upon the implacable opposition of 95 per cent. of the white firemen to further association official connect with the color community, and that, while the color movement was drawn, the present movement was instituted to bring about a greater degree of efficiency in the department. The members, he said, of the companies represented by the committee before the meeting will present reks socially and they will refuse to perform fire duty in their company.
"Unless this petition is granted," said Mr. Hulick impressively, "there can be but one result—the Eureka will perform the duty." Dr. Ike B. Behnett, who was asked to speak in support of the petition, said the case had been fully covered and that he had no remarks to make. He was asked for the other side of the question there was a momentary hush.
Thomas Parotte, foreman of the Eureka afflicted, said there were taxpayers in West Park who ought to have rights and who should be heard before the Eureka company was disbanded. "It is only the color line," he added sadly. "The Eureka company was disbanded and they fought him 12 years before we were annexed to Ashbury Park. This will show us who our friends are in the council. We are ready to produce testimony regarding the character of the Eureka members."
Mr. Leonard, supporting the speaker, his voice trembling, said: "It is an awful thing to have it cant in our faces that we are black men. Yes, we are black men. Yes, we are black men. We think and work and act like white men. There may be a time when these black faces will be of some service to the men who are trying to put us out of business." The satisfied continent was apparently satisfied to leave the matter with council without further discussion, and as there was little more to be said on either side, Mr. Carton moved that the question be referred to the fire and water committee to thresh out at its leisure much more. "Not much," explained Mr. Minot with sudden energy. "We are only three and this is a matter for the whole council to decide. If you like we will go into executive session." The executive sessions for me" interrupted us in Spain excitedly. "I protest against it and will not go into executive session. This question belongs to the people. I am not afraid to let the people know where I stand." "Either am I," said Mr. Winkeler. "Well, let us decide it in open session," said Mr. Minot. "It is all the same to me."
Mr. Carton insisted that the petition called for a reorganization of the fire department and was therefore expressly the province of the fire and water committee.
"Very well," said Mr. Minot, "we will accept the responsibility under that understanding and will endeavor to arrive at a fair understanding."
The committee will report at the next meeting.
By many it is thought that the proposed disbandment will cause a sharp division of the colored vote and that politically council is up against a stiff proposition.
WARNS SOUTH OF RACE DANGER.
Ex-Gov. Northern of Georgia Says Lawless Spirit is Alive in the Courts.
Amy Carter, ex-Gov. Speaking before the Atlanta Eaglez Legislature, the Negro question, ex-Gov. Northern, who has been going over the State in an effort to bring about a better feeling between the races, declared that "government is concerned. He said.
"The white people hate the Negroes and the Negroes hate the white people. There is a deep grained antagonism there in the court. The Negro is concerned the white people are all ready to cry, with Ben Tillman, 'To bell with the law!' This spirit is alive in the courts. I receive wrote to me to remember the Supreme Court asking if they did not consider lynching nothing less than murder. I failed to get an answer, and it was the same way with regard to the sheriffs. The court wrote that the officer coined an insulting reply from a Baptist minister. I believe every one of a mob a red-nosed murderer, whether he be the tail end or the head of a police opinion that all people connected with a lynching, whether they be only lookers or not, should be sentenced to the penitentiary. I consider people who burn Negroes as savages but from hell. Many are trying to helpless this great question. It is greater than all the other problems come into barricade and our civilization is slipping from us. Something must be done."

It Has Stimulated Business Activity Everywhere TOPEKA NEXT AUGUST
The League Will Mret and the West is Striving to Make it the Best Ever.
It is not worthly that greater interest is being in the work of the National Negro Business League in direct attention to the wisdom of giving support to those of the race engaged in business and the professions. The press of the country should be a unit in backing up this work. When Negroes support their own enterprise they will result in giving confidence to those who have money and ability to start enterprises more varied than are now in operation among us.
The National Negro Business League is spreading this doctrine of race support not alone through the distribution of literature, but by holding meetings in various parts of the country, including each of the country in opportunity of telling of the success of its people, individually and collectively, and each session has been an improvement over the preceding one. Little was really known of what Negroes were doing into the language being the best of their life. The stories told were not alone by polished orators but the plain, hard-seased brother were remarkable evidences of the progress that had been made, and one of the pleasing features of these meetings is that men and women can be more than the claim of the old and slipment language. The next meeting was held at Chicago and was largely attended. Then the convention the next year went to Richmond and an opportunity given to see What Southern homeliness really really been and the greatness of the world. Richard the white press and the people were most cordial, doing everything possible to make the stay of the delegates pleasant. The next year the convention went to Nashville and the white people took the greatest interest in the second-generation city of the city. The citizens the hospitality of the city. Indianapolis was next visited and the Hoosaiers did the honors in true Western style. The sessions were of more than usual interest, and the attendance large. The XYZ line was the city's only active, it is so far has the record in point of attendance and general interest. More prominent characters and some of the strongest white friends the race has attended and spoke at the different sessions when the same time for a visit was the delegates continued to for the and washed that the sessions could be prolonged. Atlanta was next selected and the sessions there were full of interest. The white citizens who spoke were cordial and there was a warmth of feeling in their expressive form for the same time. The old and washed that the session would be while the better political campaign that had been waged for over a year, in which the Negro was held up to his detriment, vilified and abused, to help along the success of the man elected, it can be truthfully held that the line is not the company's best, but the old and the world have been worse than they were and would have come to pass before they did.
Topeka has now the honor and the citizens of that city are working to have the most successful meeting yet between They are the leaders of the Eastern that they are not in it when it comes to push and business enterprises. All who desire to see what a business league really is should attend the sessions August 14, 15 and 16. While the declaration of the National League stands for financial and financial development of the Negro, the National League stands for race progress along all helpful lines, seeking to instill race pride, and to emphasize the importance of race support of the business and profession men with whom this city ties up with us in agitating the importance of this propaganda. If you have not a league organize one and see that it is active. If one exists join it and if it is not doing effective work, help to make it do it—Get the doctors, lawyers, newspapers and all others interested and advise all to see the wisdom of race co-operation.
NEW PARTY, MAYBE.
Graves'. Proposition Might Work Out
That Way.
From The New York Evening Post.
John Temple Graves's proposal that W. J. Bryan should nominate Roosevelt at the next Democratic convention illustrates the Brownsville affair, and other methods, the President has won the South. When the most rabid anti-Negro editor in Georgia thus acclaims the man who asked Roosevelt to nominate him, he thus apply to the Democracy. To turn it over to the Republicans bodily would, however, not mean the delivery of its true soul—of the soul which inspired it in the days of Cleveland, and long before. An American men and corporation managers this may be, but that fact leaves a few political stories still unsettled—individualism as opposed to State and national management, and the iniquities of the tariff. In other words, the Democratic or some other party still ought to continue the fight for justice and equality as against the State and the iniquities of partnership of the Government with certain individuals, for the latter's enrichment. It may be that a new party will carry on this old contest. If so, Mr. Graves was as an app of hastening its formation. Unfortunately for him, his reputation is such that few will take him seriously.

A new method of evading payment of commissions earned by a broker was disclosed in a suit tried yesterday before Judge Joseph and a jury in the Eleventh Circuit of New York. Chriseen E. Hutchinson, a real estate broker, was employed by Haber, Dworkowitz & Haber, real estate operators, to procure a purchaser for the property at 25 and 27 West 134th street. The broker worked with Haber, who bought the property. After the contract was signed the sellers' lawyer handed a paper to the broker with the request that it be signed by him. The broker, thinking that it was but the usual grover, worked with Haber in the deal and that commissions shall be payable on the passing of title, signed it without carefully reading it. Afterward it was discovered, however, that this paper provided that the commissions should be paid on passing of title, by our broker. When title passed the broker demanded his commissions from Haber, Dworkowitz & Haber, but they refused to pay it, saying that Abraham Gelberg was to pay the commissions, and all information as to the broker. Abraham Gelberg was refused the broker.
Thereupon Mr. Hutchinson instituted suit through Lawyer Jacob Friedman of 302 Broadway again! Haber, Dworkowitz and the lawyer again! Haber, Dworkowitz, the lawyer, Lawyer Friedman contended that as Haber, Dworkowitz and Haber had employed the broker it was immaterial who was the actual owner and furthermore, the broker was the actual owner. Haber to Abraham Gelberg offered by the defendants was merely colorable, the real owner remaining these operators. This was not the case. Haber rendered a verdict for the broker for $140, the full amount claimed, with interest.

The Problem of Living in the North and the South.
The problem of living, of bread and butter, is the most difficult of solution the world over. To-day we have famine in Russia and famine in China, and 9,000 European immigrants came into the Port of New York last week seeking for better conditions of breadwinning. The Malthusian theory may be correct that the pressure of population upon subsistence is always disastrous; that is, that population everywhere in given centers outruns the production of the subsistence necessary to sustain it. The congested condition of population of the European States has sent millions of people to America in the past century, and the same conditions in Asia would fetch us like millions if we did not bar them out because they are not white.
The Southern States are the natural habitat of the Afro-American people as far as such can be true of Occidental climates, and the labor of those States belongs, in the main, to them. It has been a question ever since the war as to whether they would hold and control that labor. Competition with white labor was inevitable. That has been growing sharper and sharper every year, with the advantage on the white laborer's side, simply because he understands the fine art of organizing and holding onto what he has by mutual understanding, the fine art which the Afro-American appears to be utterly unable to understand. The question of control of the skilled trades of the South had been
the skilled trades of the South has been settled in favor of the white man. The unskilled labor is still to be conquered by him, and he is working to conquer it. It is of vital importance that the Afro-Americans hold on to the unskilled labor of the South and seek tirelessly to reconquer the skilled labor.
For this reason, and because the labor conditions of the North and West are so controlled that Afro-Americans have very small opportunity to break into them, we have always taken the position that they should not come into the Abroad and West unless they were sure of bettering their condition; that is, unless they had positions guaranteed to them before they leave the South. The fact should constantly be borne in mind that Afro-Americans can never dominate the labor situation of the North and West, and that they can and should dominate that of the South.
What they have lost in the skilled trades they can regain; what they have in the unskilled trades they can and should hold on to.
In Boston, New York, Philadelphia, Pittsburgh, Indianapolis, Chicago, the increase of the Afro-American population has become a serious economic problem; the people finding it a difficult matter to secure the labor necessary to provide them with the necessaries of life. Afro-Americans cannot expect to dominate the labor situation of the Northern and Western States; they can dominate that of the South. Should they not direct their efforts to do so, rather than running away from the field? We ask that they give the matter good consideration:
Jamestown Exposition and Off
Color People.
We do not believe there is any truth in the Washington go-sip, as outlined in a news' dispatch, that Hayti wants to hire or borrow a gunboat of some power, to serve as the flagship of her Vice Admiral at the Jamestown naval review The New York Sun's dispatch says: Whether the story is true or not, it has caused much comment here and naval officers who have heard it are inclined to be put out over the prospect of having an officer of the black republic present at the review who would be senior in rank to the review, the president of the state fleet, Bear Admiral Robley D. Evans, Japan is the only country to participate that has notified the United States that she will send a Vice-Admiral, but there is no objection to an officer of that high rank coming from Japan; in fact, it is regarded as a compliment to this Government. A Vice-Admiral to the japeness of the occasion, and the idea of a borrowed vessel to carry him is just rubbing it in.
It is a shame that any such feeling should exist in naval circles, a feeling which does not exist in the naval circles of any other country. If Hayti had a navy and could make a fitting display at the naval review we would expect her to be represented by the blackest of her ranking naval officers, so that we should see what we should see, while the rest of mankind could make a note of it; but as she has no sufficient navy she will not seek to borrow a gunboat or appear in the review.
It was given out some time ago that Brazil had decided not to allow any black mayor among her crews who are to take over the Jamestown naval�. It was not. It not afford to run.
will get in trouble at Norfolk, Portsmouth and Jamestown, and other nearby town of Tidewater Virginia, when they run up against the color-line laws and opinions with which that part of the country is placarded.
What a miserable thing this color prejudice is.
The Bright Side of Life.
For a long time after the system of slavery had been crushed by a great war the story is told of a man in Charleston who lived so completely in the past that the present had no attractions whatever for him. He was wrapped up in the Lost Cause and the system of society which went to smash with it. A Northern acquaintance of this man was visiting him. They were seated on the spacious veranda, in the moonlight.
"What a glorious view we have here," said the Northerner.
"Yes; it is."
425. it is very beautiful," mourned the Southerner, "but you should hev seen it befo' th' wah, sah." "How to
How sweet the music of those cathedral chimes are," said the Northerner.
"Yes; it is very sweet, and I always enjoy it. But, my friend, you should hew heard those chimes befo' th' wah."
"But this moon and its glorious effects—we have nothing like it in the North."
"No."
Yes; people from away always speak about it. But you should hev seen it befo' th' wah."
This man was in the same boat with the class of Afro-Americans who are always sick. Take any specimen of this class.
"How are you this morning, Uncle Jo?"
"I jes' tolable, sah; jes' tolable."
"What's the matter?"
"Nuthin', sah, 'cept de rewmertiz. I allers has it."
Similarly, many educated Afro-Americans can see nothing in life but the dark side when they talk or write or make cartoons or preach sermons for public consumption. From their point o view everything is wrong and going to the bowwows. They can see no improvement in conditions over those of the past. All is gloom now with utter obscuration in the distance.
It is very dolorous, and makes one feel deuced weary and mournful.
Discrimination in the Southern Education Board.
We have watched with interest a feature of the development of the Southern Education Board and the Conference for Southern Education, the two working hand in hand, which has not been emphasized at all by the newspapers of the North and the South, and which now seems to be creeping into the policy of the General Education Board. The point is 'this: The Afro-American has been cut out of the meetings of the two first institutions from the first, and we can't for the life of us see how they can do the work they were designed to do if quite a third of the people of the South, and the most necessities, have no voice whatever in the conduct of the public meetings or the general work of the Boards.
At the meeting of the Southern Education Board at Pinehurst, N.C., recently, there was no Afro-American present nor was the subject of Afro-American education given any attention whatever, so far as we have been able to discover by the reports we have seen.
Who is responsible for this extraordinary, if not scandalous, condition of affairs? The Afro Americans constitute quite a third of the total population of the Southern States. Why should the eminent educators of these people be ignored in the meetings of these Boards, which were made possible and are supported by the money, in the main, of Northern people, and when it was originally intended that the work of all of these Boards should cover all of the people of the Southern States? A very queer and ominous condition of affairs has developed in the working out of the ideas of these Education Boards, which was not dreamed of in the plans of those who brought them into life and nurtured them into fatness.
The New York Police.
The people of New York are very much surprised to learn that the police force does not own their city, but that they, the people, may, after all, own themselves. If this shall be shown to be the case, by the workings of the law governing the police department drawn by Police Commissioner Bingham and just adopted by the legislature, will be great rejoicing all over the city. There is no reason, except politics of the lowest character, why New York should not have the best police system in the country. When a police system is governed by methods which have so long been winked at in New York, demoralization and corruption in many directions, with tyranny of the police as a part of the system, are bound to result. The Commissioner of Police should have control of his force, with responsibility for maintaining law and order and when he shows that he is not equal to bin ticket the Mayor should be able to re- him. That is what we shall Coffee in New York and we should results in many

THE NEW YORK AGE: THURSDAY, APRIL 25, 1907.
It was occasion in Catholic circles in the United States that the Pope would name an American Cardinal among the number made last week, but they were disappointed. Archbishop Ireland, one of the strongest and best citizens of the United States, and one of the most scholarly of the Catholics prelates, has been frequently spoken of as a possible Cardinal. The Catholic membership of the United States is very large and contributes enormously to the revenues of the Church, but it has but one Cardinal, the noble, and lovable Cardinal Gibbons of Baltimore. The difficulty appears to be that the Pope act uniformly on the rule that the supremacy in the government of the Catholic Church must remain in the hands of the Italian prelhood. That may be good policy, but the increasing number and wealth of non-Italian Catholics in all parts of the world make the rule, unwritten, of course, more and more difficult to maintain. The Catholic population and wealth of the United States are large enough to justify them in having four Cardinals.
There have been no many lawless acts committed by Italians of late in Greater New York that the police went out last week to capture all Italians found to be armed. More than a hundred human arsenals were rounded up. Some of the deadly weapons uncovered are said to be all that could be desired of them for killing purposes. The Italians claim that the people who have been creating the condition of lawlessness that led to the police order are not Italians, but Sicilians. There are plenty of good Italians as well as bad ones, and the good ones are very angry at the bad ones for the disrepute they have brought upon their race in New York. A six-foot Southern "gent" came here last week with a two-foot gun in his hip pocket and was taken in by the police. He claimed that he did not know he was breaking the law, as everybody "carries a gun down South, sah!" It made the Southern "gent" very tired to have to rest in a common cell a long time.
General Jose Miguel Gomer declares that when Cuba has another chance at independent government there will not be another miscarriage. We shall see. But Cuba has got to get another chance before prophecy can be put to the test, and that it will get it is not written on the broadside of present indications.
Instead of responding favorably to the exhortation of John Temple Graves of Georgia, that he nominate Theodore Roosevelt for President in the National Democratic convention next year, and necessarily stir up sentiment for the nomination of the Rough Rider until the convention aggregates its units, William Jennings Bryan has redoubled his efforts to get the nomination for himself. Mr. Graves should have anticipated that. It is a fair guess that William Jennings Bryan will be a candidate for the Presidency until the last word leaps from his tongue. As President Roosevelt has appropriated to himself all of Bryan's political capital, except the money standard, and Government ownership of railroads will not go, Mr. Bryan has taken up the initiative and referendum nonsense.
The French Government did a very handsome thing through its representative at the Peace Congress in New York last week, in conferring upon Mr. Andrew Carnegie the Order of Commander of the Legion of Honor, as a recognition of his service for world peace and his interest in the elevation of mankind. The Cross of the Legion of Honor, which is a much-coveted distinction, has been conferred upon few men more worthy of it than Andrew Carnegie.
An earthquake movement set in last week in widely separated parts of the globe, extending from Mexico to the Philippine Islands. These movements have been more or less active during the past four years, beginning with the Mount Police shake-up in Martinique, which culminated in the Sun Francisco and Kingston upheavals. There does not appear to be any doubt that something radically wrong exists in the bowels of the earth, but scientists have not as yet been able to determine what the nature of it is.
The Florida legislature does not like the Fourteenth and Fifteenth Amendments to the Federal Constitution, and would nullify them by joint resolution. The proposition was fathered by Senator Board of Escambia county. He thinks that the Federal Supreme Court would on appeal declare that these two amendments were unappointed because illegally adopted. "The country will finally understand that what the white South is striving for is the re-enslavement of the black South. When the program has reached the fighting point to which the Southern reactionists are forcing matters there will be plenty of fighting.
College sports should be encouraged in our colleges and institutions. There are enough such schools in the South to have well organized teams of baseball, football and the like, with inter-collegiate associations, and there are enough Afro-Americans in the large cities of the South to enjoy such sports and to pay hand somely for them. They should have their own grounds, and no discrimination on account of race should be made against white people who attended such and paid the same sort of money as other people. We are opposed drawing the color line on white people. They should have the same treatment from us as black and yellow people. Because a plan is white is no reason why we should draw the color line on him.

THE HIGH KICKERS OF WASHINGTON
Why Don't They Seek to Correct Their Home Grievances?
CIVIL RIGHTS BILL PAT
Yet Discrimination Based on Color Curses the District in Every Direction.
Special Correspondence of THE AOR WASHINGTON, April 20.—Nowhere else in America can one find a place which is so profitable for discovering what effect the mere passing of laws will have upon a race as here in Washington City. No one can study conditions here without being convinced that a race, in order to succeed, must have something that is deeper and broader than statutory laws. A race must have something within itself. For example, the Civil Rights bill is in full force here in the District of Columbia. Afro-Americans often bemoan the fact that this bill was declared unconstitutional so far as the States are concerned but as one studies the actual facts here in the District, where the intelligence and wealth of the Afro-American are centered, and realizes how the bill is not enforced, it is no wonder that it could not have been enforced in the far Southern States.
The Afro-American in Washington spends much time and energy bemoaning the condition of the Negro in the South, but he seems to overlook the fact that he should, himself, set the example here in Washington in seeing that the law is enforced. Here in Washington we talk much and eloquently, but rarely act; as a result we are kept out of hotels, restaurants, have separate schools and are often kept out of places of amusement, or are assigned to separate places in these public places. It is a further fact that in all Southern cities, Negroes can hire a theatre for entertainments, but here in Washington we cannot secure one for any purpose. Separate cars are run in portions of Washington and we are subjected to other discriminations at almost every turn.
Your correspondent insists that the law was formulated in the Charles Sumner Civil Rights bill is in full force and effect here in the District, and I would like to know what the leaders, such as Prof. Kelley Miller, J. F. Cook, L. M. Hershaw, Mrs. Mary Church Terrell, F. H. M. Murray, Archibald and Francis Grinke, Henry Bailey, Whitfield McKinley, Rev. S. L. Carothers and others, are going to do about it. Will they still continue to content themselves by giving advice to the Southern Negroes or act right here at home?
Nowhere does one find so many inconsistencies as here in Washington. Many of the leaders here are opposing the Jamestown Exposition because it has a separate department for Afro-Americans, but right here we find many of these opposers actively engaged in seeking to get places for themselves or their friends in the Afro-American department of the public schools of the District.
What is the difference between recognizing a separate Negro department at the Jamestown Exposition and a separate Negro department in the public schools? Is it any more distinguished for an Afro-American to be at the head of a school in the Negro department of a school here in Washington than it is to be at the head of the Negro department of the Jamestown Exposition? The same principle holds in both instances, and your correspondent insists that nowhere in the country, as here, can one find such a frumful field of study, so far as the Afro-American is concerned.
WHAT DOES THIS MEAN?
NO MISCENEGATION LAW HERE
Convicted of Violating Public Decency by Concealing to the Marriage.
From The New York World.
OLEAN, N. Y., April 19—Fred Hitchcock, white, who permitted his daughter Bora, aged fifteen years, to be married to Arthur Jones, colored, by the Rev. W. F. Bora, a few dawns ago, was tried to before Justice Charles Carter and a jury. Hitchcock was found guilty of violating public decency and sentenced to serve six months in jail and pay $50 fine. A large crowd cheered the verdict.
The court is handsome, was in court. The clerkman has already been held for the Grand Jury for violating the marriage law.
EUROPEAN THEYES IN AFRICA
Dispute Over Imaginary Boundary Line to Be Settled.
From The New York Sum.
The curious blunders sometimes made by boundary commissions in Africa owing to misconceptions of African geography are illustrated by an entanglement which two nations are now trying to unravel. Congo Free State agreed that the thirteenth meridian east of Greenwich should be the boundary between their possessions in the region of Lake Albert Edward. Both countries believed from what they passed through the middle of the lake, and so it was satisfactory to both States as the boundary because it would give the eastern half of the lake to Great Britain and the western half to the Congo State. He has been discovered only recently that the real position of the meridian is so much to the east of its supposed place that the point on the British frontier nearest to the main lake is twenty miles away from it. The lake cannot be seen farther in the distance, nor narrows into a ribbon at its northern end.
In view of this discovery the two countries, not being able to narcise to the interpretation of the boundary treaty, have just sent out a joint commission to make direct boundary calls or in any way bind their respective Governments, but will merely report on their survey and the question will then be dealt with diplomatically.

They Hang Together Socially and in Business and Politics and Succeed.
Many, colored Americans, some of whom are leaders, look upon any movement that savors, much less means segregation, notwithstanding its peculiar suitability to and essential helpfulness of the needs of the colored people in any movement, in the community, as it takes place in the pathway of the race that should be killed. Segregation in its origin is deeper than human prejudice. Its cause is among the things basic in the matter and human nature. In the philosophy of race, matter is in itself of a law that brings likes together. Notwithstanding the common likeness of the races' humanity there is an affinity peculiar to every race and which, even under most favorable circumstance, shows itself.
In our large municipalities the Germans, the Jews and the Italians have the newspapers, the community with their newspapers and public representatives. They are not satisfied because they are white to be scattered throughout the city to have a diverse population of businesses and representatives. By a voluntary segregation they are in control of the property, the businesses, the courts and the certain sections of some of our great cities.
The unions, which seek to control labor, started a practice of segregation, which, if it had continued in the spirit they began, would have, in proportion as they got control of skilled and common labor, closed the door of opportunity for those in the macro workmen, who are their equals in the trades and an common labor.
And to today, there are great exclusive walls against Negro employment with the exception of a breach here and there. Let the Negro work at the bureaucracy until the Negro system has wrought a caste system in American society with the Negro the bottom stratum, and notwithstanding the wonderful progress of race, and the brilliant individuals, the system is still well intact. The infrequent reception and entertainment of prominent colored citizens are not regarded as social recognition. Their training is fully appreciated by society proper is one of individual taste and personal affinity. But what the Negro has accomplished and achieved as the result of aggregation astonishing the world and a credible incentive to the Negro in incentive and inspiration to marvelous results. It has given him landlocks, creditable business enterprises, great educators and great preachers. By the Negros of a voluntary segregation by the Negroes in the North and West for political purposes. To be
seen and heard and felt in the city councils, in the State Legislatures and in the halls of National legislation, is as helpful a factor, as the church, the school and the going into business, in the right settlement of the race question.
The Negro needs not be ashamed or at all segregation. Its spirit is everywhere, and where, and when, it does not appear at times that it does not appear in force or unpleasantness, yet sufficiently pliable to yield and strong enough to resist. This is the reason why he might be greater than his brethren, preserve his father's house and save a nation. Segregation is the refiner's test, and he must be prepared to prepare him like Joseph for honor and great service. W. R. LAWTON.
MR. RYAN'S AFRICAN CONCESSIONS
Regarded in Europe as Evidence of Our
Increasing International Influence.
from the New York Sun. Brussels, April 12, appoints prominent banker and capitalist of Paris, one of the group interested in the exploitation of the French African colonies, stated to a correspondent that the entrance of Mr. Thomas K. Ilya and his associates into the French development, was regarded as one of the most important movements in many years.
"Although there is some of the usual talk about the 'Yankee invasion,'" he European investors in foreign reasons why European investors in foreign countries are glad of this movement. For one thing, we regard it as evidence of confidence in the commercial and financial stability of our countries. We afford us the opportunity to demonstrate to the Americans the need of reliable and responsible government in the undeveloped parts of the world in the European or American capital may be invaded.
"For example, when Americans have substantial investments in any of our African countries they can better appreciate the desire for government in Southern American溶性, where some of us have very large interests. We know that the Americans have substantial investment in Africa, so that their commercial interests will be well positioned and will stand related to the European powers exactly as our commercial interests across the Atlantic are related to American power. Hence we feel that Ryan's investment will help us somewhat of a guarantee of a substantial nature for fair play all around." An English capitalist largely interested in Africa when told the views of the Paris financier practically agreed with him.
"We have found Americans very useful to us in South Africa," he said, "especially such men as John Hays Hampton and Gardiner Williams. The American man with Gardiner will arrange for studying economic geological questions not possessed by any European power at home, and so they are especially competent to help discover the resources Africa. It is likely that American interest in the development and conservation of government and immigration in many ways. Some Englishmen have professed to see in this movement only a clever ruse of King Leopold to checkmate possible British hostility, but it is the American Government will allow itself to be entangled in African affairs because of the interests of a few capitalists. As a matter of fact there is much British capital interested in the richest mineral port in Africa, and their interests will probably be identical with the Americans as far as our relations to the Congo Government are concerned."
It is expected in Brussels that the American expeditions will reach the interior of Africa about the first of June. In addition in charge of Mr. Verner will begin his expedition having been obtained for its use, and a new town is to be laid off somewhere near Stanley Pool. The members of this expedition are Messrs. Pope and Andrews, Americans, and Bertrand and Argans, besides others to follow soon. The latter will be accompanied by anological Survey under S. H. Ball, late of the United States Geological Survey, has secured an expeditionary chief R. Dorey Mohm, formerly of the United States Navy, and for several years an officer in the expedition. The latter expedition will be occupied a first in general reconnaissance work, to prepare for actual exploitation later.

AFRO-AMERICANS ARE ARTISTIC
Should, However, Be Cultivated—Chapter on Efficiency in School Teaching. JEFFERSON Criff, Mo., April 20.—The junior class, smarting under the fact that a sophomore won first prize in the recent spelling match, has issued a challenge to be able to spell it again"; and the contest will, in all probability, take place within a few days.
The long hall of the main building presents a very beautiful appearance, decoration, color and pastel, all the work of students in the art department. Several of these students possess real talent for art, and already find a ready sale for their purchase. The art department, in the signature, President Allen, members of Jefferson and many of the numerous visitors have from time to time purchased pictures on the real merit of the work, the desire to help the students financially, the amount of talent for the fine arts within our race, which in many instances needs only a little opportunity and inspiration to make it a power in race elec- tion. We are a people, artists seldom art. The art instinct, and the monar- tic instinct, somehow did not harmoniously blend, the Greeks, as an illustration formerly, against the Phoenicians to illustrate the latter.
The Negro has already demonstrated his power in music, oratory and literature; and he is rapidly forging to the front in sculpture, architecture, etc. To a certain extent we must develop within our young people the commercial spirit that permeates American life, but at the same time we must keep alive and to inspire the artistic impulses which are gifts from heaven and which alone make life worth while.
President Allen recently requested the members of the senior class, the majority of whom hope to begin the work of teaching, and whose applications have already been made to county school boards, to read with great care that excellent article in the April Atlantic, by Professor Palmer of Harford, titled *Ideal Teacher*. It was a tawdry request, young people seized upon the article with a desire its utterances appeal to every live educator, and to all in any sense connected with or interested in the education of children ought to mean "all of us". Personal personalism to the following line of thought. There are nothing especially new in Professor Palmer's alleged four fundamental characteristics of the teacher, namely, "Aptitude to teach, already accumulated wealth; an ability to follow through knowledge; a readiness to be forged". But, it is in the expansion of these statements, each one giving rise to four Secorites: birth-giving questions, that the teacher and value of the article lie, and that make it a veritable treasure trove.
The pen-pictures are graphic illustrations, as the teacher's face, "megare, worn, sacrificial, anxious, powerless, is exactly the opposite of what it should be, so I can read these words that face is a familiar light, especially at this season of the year.
One of the strongest pleas for the higher education of teachers, irrespective of sex, previous condition, etc., is in Professor's statement: "In preparing a lecture I fill always have to work hardest on the things I say, probably the experience of every public speaker. Bringing this experience up or down to the teacher, as you like, he cannot teach right up to the edge of my knowledge, a fear of falling off. My pupils dislike it. Their fear and my words are ineffective. The influence of what I do not say." And so on it is throughout its length, every statement a sludge-hummer blow against each day one design or cause thought that will lead to definite activity on the part of the teacher who desires to grow in professional ability.
Two Louisiana deputy sheriffs have been arrested on a charge of manslaughter growing out of their failure to save a prisoner from a mob. If they are conceived like this, that other peace officers in the State will lack their resources for protecting prisoners, they evidently enlarged. Nothing more effectively addresses a public official to enthusiastic performance of his duty than the probability that he will go to jail if he neglects that duty.
The Willing Spirit
Winston Churchill, the novelist, described at a dinner in New York the life of ference between realism and romanticism in fiction. "To make my meaning clearer," Mr. Churchill ejected, "I will take the case of a young man and a girl sweethearts. The young man, a romanticist, said passionately to the girl: Darling. It shall be. My life's one purpose to surround you with every comfort and to anticipate and give life, your every wish." The girl, a realist, smiled faintly as she answered. "I know now good of you, and all on 80 a week too." —Argonaut.
MEMORIAL to R. S. SMITH
Mrs. Cooper Gives the Reading Circle a Paper on Her Travels in Europe.
WARNINGING, April 22.—A reading circle composed of sixteen young ladies and gentlemen, most of whom are teachers, organized this Winter for the purpose of pursuing a systematic course of reading, beginning with an analytic study of prose fiction. The circle has just completed its second school, a model of the romantic school of English literature, and at its last meeting, Saturday, April 20, at the home of Miss McGwin. 510 T street, was peculiarly fortunate to have as guest of honor Mrs. Anna
Mr. Cooper gave a most delightful and interesting talk on her visit, a few years ago, to the region of England rendered famous by Sir Walter Scott. dwelling especially upon the beautiful country of the Lakes, the famed Melrose Abbey, Tinton Abbey and the various "locks" of Scott's stories. So enthusiastic was the club's appreciation of her descriptions that the charming lady took us with her on a flying trip to Paris then Rome. The club's members visited the Forum and visited Virgil's Tomb, and thence to Venice, ending with the ascent of Vesuvius. After an hour and a half of globe trotting the club returned without even a pang of scarcness in crossing the Channel, impressed by the vision of the Giuseppe, the Greece and the grant deed that was "Home."
At the close of the travel talk Miss Harriet Brooks, in behalf of the club presented Mrs. Cooper with a huge cluster of carnations surrounding a silhouette of a woman, and expressed it, the many young persons who have galued inspiration for higher, nobler and purer lives from the example of the noble woman who sat in our midst. A tender little response and social chat. The McGwin, president; Mrs. Cecilia De Nolltz, secretary; Miss Harriet Brooks, Miss Marie Smith, Mr. W. B. Hartgrove, executive committee; Miss Maud Dowling, Miss Anna De Mossier, Lewis Grecpy, Walter Dyson, King, Mitchell, Mucklevoy, De Keefe and Joseph Allen. Mrs. Rosetta Lawson left the city on last Thursday night for the South and North Carolina, where she will be engaged in the work of the W. C. T. U. of which she is the National Organizer among Afro-American, Mr. Edward Lawson, who has been visiting his parents at the vacation season, has returned to school.
The meeting of the financial board of the A. M. E. church brought to the city some of the ablest and best known clergy, including Bishop Abram Grant, Bishop Wesley J. Gaines and Bishop W. B. Derrick Dr. A. J. Kearshaw of Tallahassee, Fl. Dr. G. W. Kearshaw of Memphis, Dr. John Kearshaw of Memphis, Dr. T. W. Henderson of New York, Dr. H. T. Johnson of Philadelphia, nDr. O. J. W. Scott, pastor of the metropolitan A. M. E. church, is to begratulated on his appointment to the faculty of the church family. April 20, at 5 p. m., at 1453 Corcoran street, the Library Committee will have an evening of music and pleasure for the benefit of the A. M. E. church who has been visiting her daughter, Miss Emma, for the post week, for home on Saturation last. Miss Nellie Houston of Cambridge, Miss, who has been spending a few weeks with friends here, left for home on Saturation, M. Y. C. is a very much encountered in the effort to raise the $25,000, and young music committee is making anticlergy committee work like Troopers and end up. The outcome is the success.

Mini Association held memorial service
in honor of the late S. Smith
!
be class of 'S2 on Sunday evening, cty 21, at the Lincoln Memorial Concerts hall, the impromptu mark of Mr. Smith, various members of the District bar, and a very appropriate musical program as rendered by the church choir.
Mr. Smith was one of the best known musicians in the bar and a man lightly, respected by the members of the profession and the public generally because of his many sterling qualities. It was very fitting that the services should be under the auspices of the Howe Company, composed largely of the members of the bar, since Mr. Smith was a graduate of that school. The committee in charge of the arrangements for the memorial services consisted of Messrs. Thomas J. Price, G. Gregory and Benjamin L. Gaskin.
The famous Pen and Pencil Club was the recipient of a courtesy which from the point of absolute enjoyment has never been surpassed. It is one of the leading physicians of the District of Columbia, invited the club to his handsome home, 1575 S street N. W., on last Friday evening, April 19, to see him in dismaying bed with all of those things which would appeal to the epuree, and the buffet was stocked with the products of the most choice vineyards. Those who know this club will appreciate the beauty of the vines, joyed and the buffet was tended to the only physician who knew how to diagnose the illness of the club. Reside at Willingham these present with a copy of the book, H. Hudnell A. Lincoln Brown and George Scott and the following members of the club: William L. Pollish, C. Burles, A. S.

SOUTHERN RY. WRECK KILLS TWO.
Passenger Train Hits' Freight and Wrecking Train Runs Into the Debris. BIRMINGHAM, Ala., April 21. - A fast train from Birmingham to Southern Railway run into a freight train going in the same direction at 3 Glocken this morning at Wooddawn, four miles from Birmingham. The train, the freight train and a rail car, were amphibious.
A box car was thrown across a parallel track and this was struck by an east-bound wrecking train, causing a second wreck. Caldwell Harrison, colored, fireman, and Beverel, colored, brakeman, were led, and the passengers were ejected. Eighteen passengers were more or less set but none damaged.
RELATION OF FULL FREEDOM
TO A FULL STOMACH
Mrs. Clifford Stoeks to Make Mor Postion Cleaner.
To the Editor of True New York Age:
Please, may I call your attention to one or two mistakes which I think you made in our very thoughtful editorial of April 4.
You are entirely right in showing that court decisions have invariably gone against us, owing to a lack of a strong compelling public opinion which, if we were to be wrong, would be to which we are entitled by law, and of which we are unjustly deprived.
I do not believe that material possessions will gain for us this opinion. 'I believe that by the sheer force of our passionate longing for liberty, by ceaseless contempt for the oppression of the plATFORM, on the stump, there will be created a sentiment in the breasts of the liberty-loving Americans favorable to the Afro-American. I believe this sentiment will be strengthened through intellectual attainment rather than through experience. This experience that teaches us to lay greater stress upon material 'progress' or any other thing, than on human liberty, is wrong. I believe from all I saw in the South that this is the kind of teaching many leaders in their different communities are accustomed to teach. I believe the effect of that teaching is being felt in the North. I have heard Southern Negroes in the North say "Jim Crow" cars were not so bad, that conditions in the South were as good as in the North, and invariably lay great stress on the money a Negro could earn in the South. Aside from being untrue, this kind of talk is most harmful. White people think and say, if the Negro doesn't want liberty or manhood right, if he is satisfied to work under such conditions as exist in the South, then the Negro will feel encouraged to cut off a right here or a privilege there.
It is my ardent desire to inspire the young people with the loftiest ideals, the chief of which is human liberty. This is a hard thing to do in this most materialistic age, and harder still when full of the counts of wealth, of money, of possessions, of material independence. When men big in the public eye are constantly shrieking in effect, "Get money," when all progress and all advancement is measured by dollars and dimes; when nowhere is the young man told of those things he may care beyond which so man can measure and which no money can buy.
I am sure you must be perfectly aware that a rich life is in no sense dependent upon a rich living. On the contrary, the richest lives are those which have flourished on the scantiest of living. Often deliberately chosen poverty in order that they might abundantly have a rich life. Jesus Christ is, of course, the greatest example. Regarding a full stomach, I will say I believe it is utterly impossible to possess the so-called "sweet people" as closely could be induced to spend less time filling the stomach, we could move mountains. My soul may not be very full, but, at any rate, certainly will not have a full stomach. All of the rules of health are against to say nothing of the refined effects of such a life, its disastrous effects upon the soul life. Gluttony is to me the chiefest of sins. Too many men are supremely content so long as they have a full stomach! Thomas Nelson Page says, "they can be fed for a long time, knowing full well often the Negro is made satisfied on a good meal.
Now, I believe that the chief reason we have so far not shown the proper organizing ability is because we have not had proper leadership. I find from experience that men lose sight of the general welfare in personal welfare, and these two things generally conflict. The leader which the Negro needs is one freedom, who is willing to risk all in an effort to secure it.
Then, again, we have not had the proper teaching. No systematic effort has been made to teach the Negro, and especially the Negro of the South, his true relation to life, to the Nation and to his race. He has simply been a tool, either for designing members of his own race or for the whites; and of a truth I believe he has and still does suffer as much at the hands of his own people (either because of ignorance or knowingly) as from other causes.
As a journalist you have it in your power to do so much in leading the youth of the race right. De Berry's letter shows the harm that Southern Negroes do in the North. Also the Alabama correspondent politely tells us to let them alone that they are quite satisfied. In their foot's paradise, "And Virginia comes out strong with its big financial statement."
The South would almost persuade us that it is a much better place than the North. However, I see only the "Jim Crow cars and the spirit which operates in the South." The law, the bench laws and the convict lease system and the pittance paid for labor, of which the black laborer is robbed in the end. The fault in the past has been not only with the man behind the gun, but with the generals as well. There are generals in the South who generally is a good deal like the general. We must create first in the Negro himself a passionate desire for liberty, and when he himself desires it, he can infect others with the desire. Because we have not done is no reason why we can not be free. We are Yorrs for the race. CARRIE W. CLIFFORD, Cleveland, Ohio, April 7.
UNCONSTITUTIONAL CONSTITUTION.
From The New York World
The Florida Legislature disapproves of the Fourteenth and Fifteenth Amendments to the United Constitution and proposes to nullify them by the convenient device of a joint resolution. The wonder is that in all these forty years nobody ever before thought of this simple amendment, so much easier than passing roundabout laws with grandfather clauses and educational tests.
South Carolina attempted merely to nullify certain nets of Congress. The Florida method is more thoroughgoing. An unconstitutional law would not be its success so much easier than passing roundabout laws with grandfather clauses and educational tests.
Every State from time to time can select such posts of it as it may choose to obey and discard the rest as offensive to local prejudices.
Now that Florida has taken the lead, who knows but California will abolish the jury system and institute a drumhead jury? Or will Florida be the State? Pennsylvania believes in ultra-protection. If the Constitution is unconstitutional, why should not its Legislature lay duties on imports from other States? And, of course, Massachusetts could authorize Nassau Lodge to make treaty with Newfoundland and so to President Roosevelt carry through his treaty.
One of the difficulties in the way of the disfranchisement of the Negro by Southern States has been the threatened reduction of their representation in Congress. The Southern States have guarded against that danger. They abolish the whole of the Fourteenth Amendment. While they were at it they might have made their position impregnable by abolishing the United States Slavery Constitution created by the United States Constitution.
THE NEW YORK AGE: THURSDAY, APRIL 25, 1907.
South Carolina Jurist's Talk to Grand Jury
EDUCATION A REMEDY
Forcible Address on the Acquittal of Sheriff, Tried for Allowing Mob to Take Lynch Prisoner.
COLUMBIA, S. C., April 20.—At the Dorchester court this week Judge George W. Gage of Chester, delivered a vigorous charge to the grand jury on the subject of the recent acquittal at Orangeburg who was tried for misdemeanor in the Negro to be taken from him and lynched in day time by a party of about a dozen because the Negro was accused of having fired into a residence. A transcript of the scenographer's notes shows that the Negro was following his charge which is said to have made a profound impression:
"I desire to present to you some reflections upon the spirit of lawlessness which has manifested itself in your actions, your actions, your actions, your actions, nor yet in the spirit of unkindness, but with plainness of speech
I want to burn into the minds of this jury, and into the minds of the people of this county, that the willful taking of human life is an awful crime, hateful alike to the people who are in a mind and the people of the eyes of God; and the people who persist in that practice are bound sooner or later to sink to the level of the lowest civilization, if they have civilization at all.
"Crime is progressive in its nature; the violation of one law begets another, until a community comes finally to scout the law."
"A few months ago at Orangeburg, it was my duty to preside at the trial of your sheriff for willfully allowing a prisoner to be taken from his custody in the jail at Dorchester and murdered by a mob. The testimony in that case revealed a shocking state of public opinion in this town and county.
"It is possible to believe that in a county like this, in daylight, in the public streets, a mob of unmasked men could take a prisoner from the county jail and lead him out to slaughter, and the identity of some of the mob be not known. Yet after the grand jury of this county had indicted the sheriff, when he was arrested for trial, the man of the community came forward to tell who did the crime against the State.
"What is needed here and everywhere else in the State is the existence of higher ideals among the people; better standards to the people; the actions of a man's duty to his followers and to society; higher ideas of truth.
"Until a right public opinion is grafted and formed the lawless man will continue to do his infamous work; and he will only do what he does in doing what he is made to know that in angry public frown upon him.
"There are two ways of breaking up lawlessness. One is to convict and punish the breaker. At best this is a method; but the other is to do for those trained for the commission of crime. Let the grand juries find true bills, let the petit juries find verdicts of guilt, let the judges impose adequate penalties and let them be suffered.
"In the case of part of the law's machinery. Taxes are levied on the citizen's property to erect schoolhouses and to pay the teachers. The teachers are elected by the public, and the whole system has now grown to be as large as the government as are the public schools.
"A reference to statistics shows that there are 6,000 whites and 10,000 Negroes in Dorchester; that only 1,600 white teachers in Dorchester; that only 100 white and of those 500 do not attend; that the school term lasts only five and a half months and that the teachers are paid only $15 a month. If these figures show that one half the white children of the county are not in school at all; that the terms are too short and that the teachers are not in school at all; then this jury has the right and duty to interpose and correct the wrong.
"I rue the day will soon come in South Carolina when there will be a school for every child, and every child will be on the school. May you be an efficient cause, and not a torture, if the education is not for my light it may bring."
FIFTIETH WEDDING ANNIVERSARY
Celebrated by Mr. and Mrs. Benjamin F. Jones of Port Jefferson.
Pont Jefferson, April 22. The celebration of the fifteenth anniversary of the marriage of Mr. and Mrs. Benjamin Franklin Jefferson was held the most brilliant affair ever held on this end of the island by any of our people. Mr and Mrs Jones are highly respected in the community, both having lived here for more than fifty years. They own and occupy the land, and the occasion brought together the whole family, consisting of three young men and one daughter, all of whom are married and doing well. A granddaughter of twelve summers is the comfort and joy used in the marriage, and handsome and useful presents of gold and glass, including $50 in gold from the children and friends. The evening was pleasantly spent in games and conversation. At midnight the call was heard summoning the assessee of the house, D. Jacksess of Robert A. M. E. church performed an informal ceremony and congratulated the pair.
Among these present from out of town were: Mr. and Mrs. Samuel Jones, Ansonia, Conn.; Mrs. John Walker, Amityville; Mrs. Juin Bristol, Smithtown; Miss Elise Cloeo, Babylon; Mr. Arthur Northport; Mrs. Caroline Northport; Mr. and Mrs. Grant Solls Mrs. Catherine A. Woodhull, Mrs. Ann Hunter, Miss Florence Bristol, Mrs. Martha Mitchell, Mrs. Solah Hart, Setakui; Mrs. Nelson Combs, Stony Brook
WHAT "ANGLO-SAXON" MEANS.
Mr. Allen Says It Refers to Our Tongue and Defends Its Use for Catholics.
From the New York Times
I read with interest the editorial in *The New York Times* of April 3 entitled Anglo-Saxon Catholics. "The cavalry at the battle of Yorktown indicates a decided bias and narrowness which in these enlightened times is regrettable to see.
"Ivergh," whoever he may be, must know full well that the term 'Anglo-Saxon' is rarely used specifically on this side of the Atlantic it being ordinarily used by a people who speak the Anglo-Saxon tongue and those of other tongues.
We Americans speak the English language and are frequently alluded to, here and everywhere, in the broader scene as Anglo-Saxons. Under these circumstances I fail to see the "tendency or absurdity" of this "hyphened" apprehension.

Services at 51, Luke's Church—Bethlehem League Coming Concert—New Letter Carrier.
NEW HAVEN, April 22.—After a year of silence it was thought that the Colorado-Taylor Choral Union had undoubtedly gone out of existence, but the union made its second annual appearance last Tuesday evening, 10th instant, at Warner Hall.
This organization is composed of colored vocalists and has been coached all the winter by Professor William Hacecse of Xale. The concert was attended by an unusual large and enthusiastic audience. The program composed of selections of special merit, from the best authors, and was presented in a finished manner, showing application to study and efficient training. Moreover, the facility in execution, received the commendation of the house, as well as much favorable comment. The soloists were: Miss Jessie Muse, Mrs. Baptist Mayo and Mr. Bertram Jones. Miss were accompanied and Mr. C. R. Fowler were accompanists.
Archdeacon Eugene Leon Henderson of the diocese of Georgia, formerly rector of St. Luke's P. E. church of the city, St. Luke's, conducted the McGouin of the diocese of Arkansas, conducted the services at St. Luke's Sunday morning, at which time there was a good congregation in attendance to hear and meet with the clergy. In fact, the services were never made more reverend and dignified than on this occasion both archdeacons wearing the girdle in the processional and recessional. Archdeacon McGuire preached a sermon which brought out in glowing terms the quality that belongs to a whole-souled Christians, not part, mind, body, God. He also preached at 7:30 p. m.
Archdeacon Henderson announced that Mr. McGuire's visit East was only of a week's duration, combined with business incident to rest, that he would offer for sale the bishop's office will ill present the bishop of Arkansas at a meeting held in that city before returning. While in the city Archdeacon McGuire was the guest of Archdeacon Henderson at the rectory, 356 Crown street. A sacred concert under the auspices of Bethel League, No. 1, will be held on Sunday evening, 28th instant. The program is an follows: Organ prelude, Miss Effie Grant: hymn, "Coronation," league and congregation; prayer, Rev. William St. A. Lynch; vocal solo, Mr. Arthur Smith: reading, "The Soul of the Soul," Miss Joseph: solo violin, "Afraternation," S. C. John: trio "Give Thanks to the Lord," Miss Pearl Tatten and Means, William and Frederick Tatten: reading, "A Child's Faith," Mrs. J. Butler: vocal solo, "Prayer," Mrs. C. C. Grant: poem, "Purity," Mrs. S. L. Bonner: solo, "Face to Face," Mr. William Tatten: bass solo, Mr. Charles Moore: chorus, "Art Thou Weary?" league
Mr. Samuel Taylor of Orchard street, received a telegram from Petersburg, Va., last Thursday, stating that his mother was very low. Mr. Taylor left at once for her bedside, but a second telegram from Petersburg passed away. Mr. Taylor's friends here expressed much regret that he did not reach his home in time to see his mother alive. Among the six new letter carriers appointed by Postmaster James A. Harworth was Joseph B. Fisher, who was sent to Petersburg to catch Fisher in certainly a lucky man to catch such a route so favorable to himself.
WHERE REFORM PARTY FAILED.
Grabbed All the Good Things in Sight as Usual.
From The Philadelphia Pilot.
We had as well frankly face the fact that we had a well-known party of performers regarded the City Party as a medium through which they could secure better personal advantages for themselves or their friends, a majority of college students, and a minority through which they could secure better personal advantages for themselves or members of their race failing to obtain which advantages many colored men also put the party in deserved position, written pleaded with colored voters to rise above mere crave for personal advantage in politics, and to support the reform cause for the sake of the principles involved in trusting to the system of what ever political reward such support might merit.
We believed then, and we still believe that in such a course colored voters would be better able to respect that in the end would have won them far greater political prestige than they can ever hope to gain by making it appear that their desire for political favors outweigh their desire for political
But a majority of colored voters have clearly demonstrated the fact that they are not little disposed to self-assertion and are not the majority of white voters. The mistake of the reformers has been in expecting colored people to support the reform party for the mere sake of reform, without holding out to them the possibility of affiliating with the way of office, either elective or appointive.
Hind the City Party showed enough interest in and respect for the colored voters, and honored a member of that race for some office of sufficient dignity and prominence to command the attention and respect of the masses of colored voters, instead of giving chief use for the colored vote to strengthen the party of reform—and elect white men to office—colored support of the City Party would have been far more obvious and spontaneous than was the case.
No party, other than the Republican to which, whether it be in the ruck or in the back, the voters are the abject slaves) no matter for how high a principle such party may hold, nor for the confidence and support of the masses of colored voters, unless it proves to colored people that its interest in them is much higher than the mere obtaining of their votes.
LIKE FATHER LIKE SON.
DANIELLEM, Va., April 21—While masquerading in male attire, Ellen Elliott, a young Negro woman, was killed late night by a crowd of white boys. The woman was walking down a road in a Negro settlement just beyond the corporate limits with a Negro in town, whom she came up. A few words passed between them, and stones were thrown. The woman, it is declared, pulled a pistol and began firing. One of the white boys fell her to the ground with a beer and ran away. The woman kicked. Joseph Baugh acknowledges that he plunged a long dark times into her, but asserts that he acted in self-defense. The companion of the woman ran away. Thomas Walker, J. Haugh, Oscar Newman, and John E. Tabbur are in jail charged with the murder. They confess that they were implicated.

Great Hair Straightener and Grower
Most Wonderful Discovery ever made for curly, kinky and knotty hair. Makes hair grow long, straight soft, and silky; cures dandruff and stops falling hair. Kink-ine acts like magic on the hair.
Kink-ine Is No Experiment. It was discovered by R. Roberts, a famous English chemist, who has made a study of the scalp of coloured people for the past 30 years, and who, after much time and experience, has prepared this great toilet for the colored people.
This chemist says that his experience and study have taught him that the scalp of the colored people require a special treatment and after laboring and testing many years he, has discovered the greatest REMEDY the WORLD has ever known for the HAIR of colored people.
KINK-INE will make the hair GROW from one to three inches per month, if the directions and instructions are carefully followed out. We have many cases on record where the above results have been obtained, and we do not hesitate when we make these claims.
KINK-INE is the only safe preparation in the world that is guaranteed to make the hair straight and make dry, hair smooth and stop it from breaking off and falling out; takes out all the kinks and knots, cures dandruff, makes the hair soft and silky, and by nourishing the roots gives it new life and vigor, restoring it to natural color.
READ what Miss Elizabeth Jones of Chicago says of KINK-INE: "My hair was not more than three inches long when I commenced to use Kink-ine six months ago. I have used it steadily since that date and has grown on an average of two inches each month and it is now more than fifteen inches long. Begins, my hair has become almost straight and I fully believe by the end of the year I will have the most beautiful head of hair of any colored lady in the world."
SPECIAL OFFER—To prove the quality and superiority of our goods over all others, we will call one full-size bottle of Kink-ine, price 25 cents, one cake of Kink-ine Soap, the best shampoo and Toilet Soap in the world, price 50 cents, both for only 20 cents, or six bottles and six cakes of soap for $3.00.

A Trip to Name
Crossing the great Atlantic, and pearling the Strait of Gibraltar, first the bold cild elf into view. On the south coast, Vincent come into view. On the coast, the lighthouse and algal station, and in a few hours more the ship, and in a few hours more the ship, seen the stations of the coasts. Northwest of us is plainly seen dear old Africa, there is seen the lighthouse which was the mooring place of the roco, and which is maintained by the commercial nations of the world, the United States bearing her part of the expense of the lighthouse at the entrance of the Great Seas.
The Mediterranean trip is indeed beautiful, but no less beautiful in the City of Rome, where Nature or the work of man, everything is seen quite different from what it is in the Italian city. The fountain gate, as it is called, through which entrance is made to the city. The building is guarded by massive towers, which flank the building on either side. The buildings are usually the Greekian design. The city is filled with art, with the most beautiful parks and drives. Naples, Pompeii and Venice are equally beautiful, in comparison. Zimbabwe P.

I'll use for Human Venture
From The Portland office, Adocate
moves it to the general office, even if the
general office among Portland men can be found several who have a bank
account of $1,000 to $2,000, and still
have a good position as though they were dead up against it. Apparently they have the busi-
ness to launch out in business for themselves, but
are contented to work for somebody else
looking for a sure thing, and are not willing
to take the chance in a business ven-
tue. They are average fixed wages. Not until the colored
man learns to invest his money in business
enterprises and the like can he ever hope
to make a living. And he reckoned among the great
powers of this country, or any other, for
something he called the motto of the race.
Work of Clyde Leagues in Georgia.
From the East Macon Tenth Former Governor Northern makes an interesting response to his last visit to form Chile Leagues throughout the State.
Gatifying progress has been made; he has enlisted the assistance and support of seventy-three counties, and hopes eventually to bring all into the life. He states that the general thing he finds opposition among politician and more editor. This is significant. Here is one of Georgia's most influential citizens going over the State to devise plane to make mob violence impossible and regard for law and order characteristic the people of both races of the State. It would seem that such an undertaking would appeal to all the citizens of the State, but what is revealed by the former governor makes it clear that all are not yet ready to remove every obstacle in the way to observance of law and race harmony.
But this election will not always be able to withstand the progress of the times which is in the direction of order, good government and human advancement. It needs no proof that it Georgia and the South could inequate origin lasting years and good will better the race great as is the advancement of this election. It would be immensably greater.
Finda Fault with the Scientists.
Always and forever these scientists are tinkering with things that don't amount to anything! Who cares whether Dr. Willey can make first-class alcohol from any old kind of sawdust? Can he make a plate of beans out of a handful of excelsior? Or a charlotte russe out of a healed straw berry basket? Or an sirloin steak out of a discarded umbrella handle? Or a dish of lecern out of an old for cap? Or a balsch of potatoes, out of a broken down lawn mower? Or a chicken salad out of a car of old shoes? Or a well, anything all that is worth while out of the fifteen thousand old traps that clutter up our house? Until he can, I wish he would stop fishing.
Governor Jelka Refuted.
What will the Honorable Governor John have to say of the Bible paid to the late Secretary of the Treasury? The Bible is the only source of his administration at Rice University, these works were used "made the best president Bible ever had" and "were white men, equivalent for secular skills and executive ability, we are forced to declare that the best teachers of Negroes are white people."

BURHAMON, Va., April 22—Several months back there was organized in this city what is known as the Ex-Prisoner Aid Society. The association which is chartered, has upon its board of directors some of the city's most influential and representative white men. The object of the organization is to aid prisoners whose records while in prison were good and who after having served their time and given their liberty evidences a desire to become useful citizens. This work has been confined solely to white ex-prisoners up to the present, and with most gratifying results. Now that the work is fully under way the association has decided to extend its work to Afro-American ex-prisoners. To that end Mr. J. J. Daly, a young Afro-American of high Christian character, has been employed at a regular salary to superintend the colored portion of the work. In this work Mr. Daly will have the hearty cooperation of the Afro-American people of Richmond and the other large communities of the State for in it can be seen a better future for our people, especially here in Richmond, as most of the ex-convicts upon their liberation from prison drift into the slums of the city to live a life of dissipation and crime.
To the efforts of Mr. A. B. Williams, the big-hearted humanitarian who is president of The News Leader company and a member of the staff of the work in behalf of the Afro-Americans. The best white people of the State are giving their aid and influence to the work. Governor Swanson, Superintendent of the State, and others are helping to push the work.
It does seem strange that while one class of white citizens is putting forth efforts to reform the fallen of our race another class is working with might and main to put down what the prosperous class is putting up. These attacks upon his progress are usually made by the substrate white man, who can lay but little claim to gentility and refinement and who, if in business, has made a success solely from the fact that he is a resident in a neighborhood where Afro-Americans live and who are his only patrons.
In a certain street in Richmond and within a stone's throw of other are they a white man, a black man, an Afro-American the other by a white man. The white man's father kept the place when the present proprietor wore waddling clothes. The place of business being well patronized by these men. By this means the father was able to educate the son, who, too, in time became a pharmacist. The younger (the present) son was married and unto his son was born the old gentleman disdain, leaving his husband that son. The son prospered by the patronage of the people who had been enabled to educate his son, the turn became a pharmacist also. Completing his course in pharmacy, he applied himself to the study of medicine and is now a physician, with much practice among his father's and grandfather's patrons.
Within the past twenty years, three other drug stores have sprung up within a radius of a few blocks of this store, and they are owned and operated by Afro-America and no little of the patronsage of the Afro-American patronage has gone their way.
Now this white druggist, who has fattened and grown rich off the black man, is envious of the Afro-American druggist whose place of business is nearest his house, to place him in trouble. A few Sundays ago this Afro-American druggist received a 'phone message from another Afro-American druggist asking him if he had a bottle of Duffy's malt. The reply was for sale, as he had bought it for his own use. But the former said he was compelled to have it and begged to be accommodated. All right, was the reply. The office boy was given a dollar and told to save time, goes to the white man's place of business, which was nearer, for the malt. He does not get it; then goes where he was told to go; of course he got it, as had been promised. Returning, the druggist asks him in the take, takes the money and answers the boy if he paid for it, and being told yes, he asks the boy his name and his parents' address. The boy not suspecting anything wrong, gives all the information asked. The white druggist then 'phones for a sale' and the store is told the story of the sale.
The policeman gets one of his Negro stool-poole, gives him a dollar and sends him to the Afro-American's store for a bottle of malt but he does not get it, and he asks the policeman then goes to the office boy's home sees the boy and questions him about the bottle he got. Upon this information the officer swears out three warrants against the Afro-American drug. Sunday, selling liquor without a license. In court the policeman told how he had botten'a tip on the transaction; but for that it would not have been known who was the cause of the warrants, as he did not know of the white druggist. The white druggist was not in court, as it was not his intention to have it known that he was the instructor of the trouble. In court the Afro-American told a straight store concerning a dollar for the bottle, but that it was not in the nature of a sale, as it had cost him a dollar and as it was for personal use he thought he had a right to dispose of it as he did not gain or suffer any penalty.
if there was no intention to violate the yet the law had been violated and could be committed to impose a fine, minimum, with penalty story is pretty long drawn out, but old to come to what extent the sub-whitie prejudiced against the case out of the bag when the old his story in court, and general benefit on, and it that the profits that will American drager be because it beoyon its neighbor, have already the twenty-five dollars and Leonade Mundie Friday Evening Art and the Ladies-Home evening.

That a Negro charged with criminal assault upon a white female should be tried in the city of Danville, State of Virginia, and escape not only the gallows, but be found not guilty and be permitted to leave that community, one of the oldest and oldest ninety cents, has called forth the poetic quotation which graces the commencement of this article.
The case is a remarkable one and to the spirit of fair play, inherent in the better claim of white Virginians, is due the fact that two colored men are alive and will be murdered. Miss Gladys Shelton, aged 18 years and daughter of Mr. B. R. Shelton of Ambernt county, Virginia, alleged that she had been criminally assaulted by a colored man, or rather as they state it, by a Negro during the absence of her parents. She was placed during the day at about 3 o'clock. The white girl has broken the record by identifying two colored men as being her assailant. She said that she believed the Negro who assaulted her was Peter Hutson. He was arrested and with Herriot's assistance, the authorities, and was also held by the authorities. This white girl did not at first identify Hutson, but later said that he was the man. The authorities had, however, such a clear case of an alibi for Hutson; that is, proof that when the crime was committed, he was somewhere else, that they did not press the case against him.
The grand jury did not find a true bill against him; but a true bill was found against the other colored man. Herbert Amherst Court House necessitated the use of State troops, so wrought up were the citizens of the county over the outrage. The law requires that where troops are present, the judge must be granted; that is, the prisoner must be tried at some other place in the State. Judge A. M. Aiken was the presiding judge at Amherst Court House presiding at the place of the jurist who was sick. He transferred the case to his own district at Danville. While he is one of the ablest and most accomplished jurists in the State, Danville's reputation in all matters affecting the Negro is known throughout the country and that Steptoe had a chance for his life was not for a moment believed by many to be a failure with the surrounding circumstances.
The prisoner was represented by Attorney William Beasley of Lynchburg. Although this country white girl had alleged that but one colored man had criminally tried Peter Hutson as the man who had committed the crime, and although he had been released and Herbert Stouten arrested, she gibly swore that Herbert Steptoe was the man who criminally assaulted him. Iry this time the white folks had become disgusted. Even the jurors seemed to tire of the job. For if Peter Hutson had established the fact by reputable witnesses that he was somewhere else at the time the crime was committed, Herbert Stouten said he evidence too conclusive and convincing to admit of a moment's doubt. As a result the jury brought in a verdict of "not guilty," and the distinguished presiding judge not only declared that the verdict of the jury was in accordance with the evidence, but he commended them for their action.
"Right is right, as God is God, and Right the day will win. To doubt would be disdainly. To falter would be sin."

DOUGLASS HOSPITAL
Governor R. B. Glens, of North Carolina Maligns Race at Southern Club—Baptist Conference
PHILADELPHIA, April 22.—Work on razing the old buildings on Lombard street below Sixteenth, to make room for the creation of the new Frederick Douglass Memorial Hospital has commenced; it is desired to lay the corner-stone in the early summer. It will be an occasion for a great demonstration, as it will be made a National affair and many prominent Afro-Americans have decided to be in attendance from all parts of the country. The old hospital located at 1512 Lombard street, under the efficient management of Dr. N. F. Mossell, has outgrown its usefulness, it being impossible to accommodate all of the patients. During the past ten years it has taken care of over 30,000 patients of all races. The new building when completed will be able to meet all demands made upon it. It will be modern in every respect.
The Legislature reported the following appropriations on Tuesday: the Aged Colored Women's Home, Williamsport $2,000; Home for Aged and Infirm Colored Women, Pittsburgh, $4,000. The annual meeting of the Friend's Freedmen's Association was held last Tuesday evening at their meeting house, corner and Arch streets. The report of the board of officers was sent to officers and board managers to serve for one year were appointed. An address was made by Edgar A. Long, the acting principal of the Christinburg Institute, and the board plished by the late Charles L. Marshburn toward the solution of the Negro problem. Mr. Long went on to tell of the work now going on at the Institute, and the African-American to good citizenship.
Olive Cemetery, adjacent to the Home for Aged and Infirm Colored People is on the lookout for American-born Afro-American diggers. An afraid of bones or work. The Afro-American diggers diggers quit a few weeks ago because one of them struck some bones with his spade. The bones were found to be those of a horse, but the men were not sure. The diggers hired, but when the clay soil filled with water and the digging got hard they quit. Since then Isaac Scott, the aged superintendent, has been doing a good deal of work. A call was read out on Sunday morning at the First African Baptist church, by Charles H. Brooks, an attache of the sheriff's office, for a meeting to be held on Tuesday evening, to try and perfect for the establishment of a savings bank.
In his address Wednesday evening on "North Carolina and the South," at the Southern Club, Governor R. B. Glenn of North Carolina, paid a glowing tribute to his audience to advise young men to go South and take up a business life in the land of sunshine "Horace Greeley," said the distinguished speaker, "once advised young men to go West and young men to help young country which is only just recovering from the blow dealt it by the ravages of war between brothers. We are blamed for not treating the Negro race fairly. If we do not want Negroes to vote it is knowing them fear should they once get control of the Government, the return of the troubles which followed the close of the war. We do believe, however, in dealing fairly with the Negro, but we do not are not willing to permit him to change the Nation into the troubles it went through after the war. We believe that the white race is the greatest in the world and that it should not be contaminated by barbarism with the blacks." His addresses were with enthousiasm by members of the club.
Rev. C. F. Withrow, on Thursday night, at Wesley African M. E. church, took exception to the above statements made by Governor Gleem of North Carolina, at the Southern Club, and repudiated the statement for all the troubles in the South and declared that he is very much manigned. In part he said "The conduct of the Negro after the close of the Civil War did not cause any trouble in the South. Did not cause any trouble in the communities, faithful in the homes of the white masters, and loyal to the flag after the enamination. There can be no fear that the right of suffrage will place the Government in the Negro's hands. It is not the right of the Government to then ever enter his mind. And the danger of his running the Government and running it into trouble is not the Negro's dream, much less his delusion. History shows that the course of the Negro has changed the Government and defend its rulers. All the Negro wants is a chance. But the man who points him in the wrong light before the world is not proving himself a friend. That is not giving him a fair chance. To judge his reputation for North Carolina, he would seem to mean both in discourage the Negro and drive his friends away.
For the love of their Alma Mater, the two hundred students of Lincoln University with their own hands will erect a new $40,000 power plant upon the uni-
versity campus. The plan was suggested by President John R. Rendall, and all else construction work and the trenching will be done by the students, many of whom will be involved in the construction of the constructing architects and engineers. The proposition was unanimously adopted by the board of trustees, and half of the money has already been contributed. The trustees are president, Dr. J. B. Rendall. He has stepped naturally into the place left vacant by his uncle, who for fifty years was the foremost authority upon the education of the Afro-American race. He sports strides in every direction and now ranks in equipment and standard of scholarship among the best of colleges in this section. This year's graduating class includes Samuel J. W. Battle, Samuel J. W. Battie, Firmin J. W. Meaney, M. Hino, Houry V. T. Taylor, Lewis M. Upperman, Thomas H. H. Ferrell, Uriah N. Johnston, Legrance M. Onque, William L. Sallman, John W.

Onque of New Jersey, who spoke on "The Influence of Christianity upon Civilization"; and William L. Sallman, who spoke on "Good Example the Inspiration of Right-Living"; by Sallman W. Well of Jamaica, on "Go Forward"; and John W. Thompson, on Pennsylvania, upon all to Home Eaglesman, the alumni hold to the Estate Trust Company, corner and Chestnut streets, Lincoln University will receive nothing whatever from the will of the late Mrs. Almena Cummins of Wallingford, who made the university her own. She posed that over $100,000 would be received from this bequest, but the failure no impaired the assets that the entire amount was used up by the direct bequest. The business interests of this are well presented by graduates of this university.
One of the most elaborate weddings of the season was celebrated recently at 1916 Rainbridge street. The bride was Miss Flora Lewis, daughter of Mrs. Ida Gordon Lewis, and the bridegroom Mr. Alexander Elliot Makel, proprietor of one of the largest gents furnishing stores in the city. There was a profuse decoration of flesse, and the marriage ceremony, at which the Rev. Dr. William Fickland and the Rev. William A. Creditt, O. D., afflicted, was accompanied by a fine choral service. Miss Lewis made a very pretty pride in her rich gown of glory, white satin, trimmed with duchess lace, and her veil was fastened with orange blossom, while she carried a large blossom of white roses. Her sister Miss Hermet Lowis, was her maid of honor, was the more a white batiste trimmed with Valenciennes lace and pink satin ribbon. She carried a haughted of pink brides made so. Mrs. Herbert Brown was best man; 1287 invitations were issued. The presents were numerous and costly. They will be at home, 1543 Federal street, on and after Sunday next from 5 to 7.
EMPLOYMENT CONDITIONS IN
BOSTON AS IN SPRINGFIELD
But instead of causing the Country We Should Make Conditions.
To the Editor of Tur New York Ace,
I am grateful you for your information and to Haiti, the bill prohibiting marriages between the races in the District of Columbia. Mr. Grimke explained it in his interesting letter of the following week. I am glad to see that you have been so fearlessly, of the evils and injustices that are being continuously hounded upon the people of color in this country, from the President of the United States down to smaller towns. There are of more "watchmen on the towers" to keep such knowledge before the whole people, particularly before the people of color, to prevent them from becoming too desipl in love with, and too afraid of their "birth" not of their adoption.
I was interested in the communication of the Rev. Berry of Springfield. I think that the Southern Negro Industrial Brotherhood are perishing. If the gandhi organization of business according to their varied capacities, just the same as are open to all other people here, he is not at all cognizant of the facts, within a thin area of business, and answered two "tools" for chemical help in offices, and in each instance was promptly "turned down". This party well understood her capability for the situations, and employed as a clerk in a widely-known lawyer's office, which she was finally compelled to leave on account of the sickness of her father; her employ also appeared to control the situation in one of the offices, gave her the very generous suggestion for a probable assurance of success by inquiring of her if she would be going to take a situation in domestic service.
And so it goes, right here in the city of Boston. I think it would be an impossibility for any young man or woman to color in the city to obtain any post in the city, but I think that applications from now until next Christmas time whatever their capabilities, but everybody whose confidence does not betray him, or who can deny his country by speaking another language than English, will be permitted to parentage), has a right to expect "good luck" to come to him if he will only wait patiently.
"The riddle of subdued laughter" that the young woman named Nina in Springfield, definitely the degree of retirement and the low stratum of common decoy to which these same women had attained, and the insults to which our young people are subjected in their attempts toward working out the problem of self-support here in the North.
There are opportunities and opportunities. Opportunities to lie; to cheat, to beg, to steal, to murder for the sake of others; to be a victim of others and a long list of others besides; but which the people of color as a whole do not seem to appreciate. So long as the discouraging and heart-breaking conditions exist as hard as they are, Springfield at us do our best to instil in the minds of our young people that these United States are in every way unworthy of their love; respect and patriotism.

Boss Republican Politics
WASHINGTON, April 20. A political sensation has been created here by the discovery that Frank H. Hitchcock, First Assistant Postmaster-General, has been agon on tour through the South for the purpose of rounding up the organization politicians and determining how serious is the opposition in that section to Roosevelt's control of the National Convention of 1908.
The first intimation that Mr. Hitchcock had been detached from his official duties by the President and sent on a purely political mission came in despatches from Atlanta and other Southern cities where Mr. Hitchcock is holding long consultations with Federal officeholders and other Republican politicians. For a long time it has been known that the policy pursued by President Roosevelt was not acceptable to any of the Southern factions. There has been especial protest against the apparent disposition of the Administration to recognise the comparatively small group of white Republicans, while ignoring the large number of black Republicans there. It is pointed out that in spite of disfranchisement laws in most of the Southern States the black members of the party are not involved and the former protest vigorously at being excluded from participating in its policies. For some time it has been self-evident that the President is going to spare no opportunity to use patronage power in the country to further his political plans.
The defiance of the Wadsworth faction in New York, the demand for the resignation of Internal Revenue Collector Robert Hughes, has been unfavorable to the policies of Governor Hughes, the announcement that Hughes will be the dispenser of Administration putnamage in the Empire State State, and the publican "boss" in Louisiana, and now the sensational development that Mr. Hitchcock has been sent to Georgia to visit. Mr. Hughes will also investigate conditions in South Carolina and Florida before his return, all point to the conclusion that an aggressive warfare has already been opened by the administration and that its opponents have kept exceedingly busy from this time on.
From The New York Sun
WASHINGTON. April Despatches from Atlanta, Macon and Charleston, telling of conferences in those places between Frank H. Hitchcock, First Assistant Postmaster General, and Federal officials do not cause any surprise here. The despatches say that Mr. Hitchcock's mission is to provide for getting Taft delegates at the Republican convention next year. The official explanation is that that man is the first of his health and is incidentally inspecting post offices. As to his conferences with officials who are not postmasters, it is explained that these are the Republican referees of the Administra- tion, necessarily consulted Mr. Hitchcock received to the appointment of postmasters.
Mr. Hitchcock was connected with the Republican National Committee in the campaign of 1901, when George B. Corlton became President. Before that, while Mr. Corlton was Secretary of Commerce and Labor, Mr. Hitchcock was chief clerk of the department. When Mr. Corlton became Postmaster General Mr. Hitchcock was appointed Secretary of Commerce, and it became known about the time that Mr. Corlton became Secretary of the Treasury that Mr. Hitchcock would be appointed Assistant Secretary of Commerce. As Assistant PostmasterGeneral Mr. Hitchcock has kept in close touch with Southern Republicans, mainly on account of the large amount of patronage he had his disdain in the way of bossing political, and it is expected that as a result of his trip through the South postmasters will be appointed who will be able to assert considerable influence in the Republican convention.
There is considerable uncertainty as to the Republicans in Southern States. One story is that Vice President Fairbanks has made great headway in arranging for getting delegates. This is denied in some quarters, where the Republican is outfitted Senator Knox as a Presidential candidate. It is claimed also that Senator Foraker is strong with Republicans in the South on account of his opposition to the wholesale dismissal of a battalion of Negro soldiers, and that by the same reason Roosevelt and Secretary Taft are work. In view of what is happening in New York State, it would not surprise anybody here who has some idea of the purposes of the Administration if many Southern officers were compelled to resign and their places filled by indulgence. Roosevelt and his desire to have as his successor a man who will carry out the policies he has inaugurated.

As you have so generously opened the
columns of your paper to the Republi-
cans of Mississippi, I desire to have a
word to say about the Republican con-
ference held in this city in March, to
which you have referred frequently in
your editorials.
I was one of the few who issued the call, and in the meeting was elected secretary. A reader of your editors' will likely get the wrong impression as to what the final results at last close. In signing the call for a conference, I had nothing in view save to see the triumph of my convictions, for which I have fought since I was a child. I would like to grot get full recognition in the party, by the parts as a party man—a condition which has not existed in Mississippi for the last few years, at least. We should have all that I had in view in issuing the call. If we are to have no recognition

After the Presidential nomination as Republicans constituting 55 per cent. of Republican voters, we had better know it, and get out, or do something else.
I was surprised when I heard the address of Dr. Rodmond, who was elected chairman at this conference, asking for an endorsement of Senator Foraker for President, and criticising the Roosevelt Administration. The resolution to endorse Senator Foraker was voted down, and in the address to the country all reference to Foraker for President or any criticism of President Roosevelt was initiated, therefrom, before the committee on address would report it favorably.
Any information which you have received that the Negro Republicans of Mississippi have been so foolish at this time to endorse any man, for the Presidency is untrue. I believe that Senator Foraker would have the support of the Republicans of the State, so far as the Negro vote is concerned. But the office holding Republicans are white, and they are non-committee and took no part in the conference, other than send spies and lentements to see what happened.
The tight which we have on our hands now is not Foraker or Taft or anybody else for President, but a fight to get control of the party machinery in the State. The president, in words you may say to us or for us will help in the cause. You fully understand that here the President has referents, consisting of two Republicans and one Democrat, the latter having the greatest weight, hence no Negro need apply for position. Your truth.

GEORGIA REPUBLICANS
ORGANIZING OPPOSITION
ATLANTA, April 14.—The opponents of President Roosevelt among the Republicans of Georgia are moving to capture the party organization and to send an anti-Roosevelt delegation to the Republican national convention next year. He is said that this movement is ready in the interest of United States Senator Forkaker.
On the surface the anti-Rosewell movement is sponsored by the Georgia Republican State League, which is largely controlled by the Rosewell League is organized in every Congressional district in the State and represents the voting strength of the Republican party in Georgia. Mr. Rosewell is moving against Mr. Rosewell on the ground that he has appointed too many Democrats to Federal office in Georgia and has ignored Republican applicants. The League is sending circules through the State attacking the Rosewell appointees and calling on the faithful to take charge of the party. The circular is especially severe on the "straddler" of the Republican office by "straddler" of the office of the officeholder of the party as opposed to the common people. If a man is a Democrat, says the League, "let him be a Democrat, and if he is a Republican, let him be a Republican." These "straddler" have given over the Republican party to the Democrats in Georgia.

ATLANTA, April 19.—Moved by the report that the friends of Senator Foraker are organizing to capture the Georgia delegation to the Republican National Convention next year President Roosevelt, Postmaster-General Frank H. Hitchcock to this State to block the Foraker game.
Hitchcock's coming was surrounded with considerable secrecy. It was known that he informed Roosevelt's friends by letter that he was coming and warned them to keep the news of the visit from becoming public.
Mr. Hitchcock reached here late Wednesday night. All of Thursday and Thursday night had in conference with the officeholder, the conference was held in United States Marshal Walter H.

GEORGIA REPUBLICANS ANGRY.
Over President Sending an Emissary to Line them Up for Taft.
ATLANTA. April 21—Members of the Georgia Republican State League are in high dugout over the recent visit to Atlanta of First Assistant Postmaster-General F. D. Hitchcock, who came, it is said, as President Roosevelt is emissary in the interests of the Taft boom. In the struggle of the Republican party in Georgia, and they announce that they propose to see that no Federal officers go to the next National Convention. President Sisternum and Secretary Sisternum are in reality Democrats, the officers are in reality Democrats, pointed for some good service performed in favor of the Administration or for some personal consideration. President Sisternum said to day:
"The administration of men panned for office in Georgia by Roosevelt are Democrats and it is outrageous for him to send Hitchcock here to line up these Democrats to tell Republicans what to do. The Republican League proposes to have charge of the party and officers will delegate to the National Convention.
"Ritsevelt has disregarded the Republicans in the Sifte in favor of Democrats in the Senate. He has the hardihood to send Hitchcock here to tell Republicans what to do. The President and his Democratic office cannot be controlled any longer. Republicans cannot be controlled any longer."
