TOPEKA PREPARED FOR NEXT BUSINESS LEAGUE MEETING Representative Men Active in Making Meeting a Success. TOPKEA, Kauaa, April 28.—Everything is lively in the capital city of Kauaa. Aside from the 'ordinary affairs which engage the attention of the people, there seems to be but one thought and purpose in their mind; and that thought is the coming meeting of the National Negro Business League next August; while the one purpose in the royal entertainment of the delegates and visitors who will be present at this meeting. The average place of business of the colored people in Topkea is kept in Al Ain, where they are the only changes and improvements are being made by the various merchants of the city. Present indications point to 500 as the number of enrolled delegates who will attend as in Kansas and the adjoining exclusive of the visitors. In no other section of the country where the League has been held have there been more farmers and business men who were in shape to attend as in Kansas and the adjoining exclusive of the visitors. The membership committee of the local League is making an active canvass to increase the membership to 300. The committee on "Home and Location" listing has decided to delegate mets summer. It has been wisely decided to place the price for lodging at $1 per day during the League meeting. The "Advertising" committee has decided on a button to be worn by all delegates mets summer. Mr. Ira O. Guy is in receipt of a communication from the venerable Judge M. W. Gibbs of Little Rock, Ark., formerly of Topkea, and who owns valuable real estate. He also said that "God willing, where the gentle roll is called all he will be to League meeting." Among the attractions which are being planned for the National League is a choir, the Odeo. They are chosen to the best music talent in the country and promise to render these fine music. Mr. C. C. Lyle, secretary of the local Business League, has been recently appointed to the Court of Topeka. Mr. Lyle is an unusually popular and promising young man. BROWNSVILLE NOT FORGOTTEN. Afro-Americans in Ohio Urged to Recent President's Summary Action. SPRINGFIELD, Ohio, April 24. The President's dismissal of the Negro troops from the United States Army without a vote in the Senate for a contested contest in this State for delegates to the Republican National Convention. It is in no sense a race question, but there is considerable feeling among old soldiers and the African-American summary dismissal of the Negro soldiers. All soldiers, white or black, and whether Union or Confederate, have a fellow feeling for one another and the other. Russell did not give a square deal to the Negro battalions stationed at Brownsville. Harry C. Smith, former member of the State Legislature from Cleveland, in an address last night at the North Street African Methodist Episcopal church, urged the colored people to stand fast in the support of Senator Foraker. Foraker said that a man the audience promised to stand by him. Smith declared that Secretary Taft favored the dischirmishment of the Negro, and in the case of the Brown-sville Court Russell did Rosenville himself. vell 'Can't Buy Them Off With Officers' CUMMERTON, Ohio, Ohio, April 24. Dr. S. S. Jordan, the Grand Chancellor of the Colored Knights of Pathys of Ohio and the State, has come out openly for Senator Foraker for President as against any man that President Roosevelt may select. He says that with few exceptions all the leading colored men in America felt the same way, and that "a few policy positions that he offered are aimed at Sen- tator Foraker, who has always bour- their friend." "The appointment of a colored man to a Federal office here or any place else" said he, "will not atone for the great injustice of the color prejudice of the military officer. I would have had little regard for my people if they could be bought so cheaply. I have been in communication with the leading colored man all over America, and I find that the majority of the colored men are not injustice, and that Sepator Foraker is the only true friend the colored man has had during the entire controversy. There are, of course, a few prominent colored men who are against Foraker and have some religious preferment. "I know it is said of Senator Forkum that he is working in the cause in a selfish interest, not because of any regard for the Negro. I have known Senator Forkum for some time, but I am not our friends. He had the courage to go into the South and pour lynching long before the Brown's life was ever heard of. Besides, even if this were not true, is not President Roosevelt this very time trying to buy more land for his white hibiscus by flipping out a few paltry NEW YORK, THURSDAY, MAY 2, 1907.

A. Modern Method in Cuba SANTA CRUZ, Calif., April 24. — The death of a young man at the age of 170 years. Despite his great age, the greatest record in modern times, he sacrifices unimpaired to the end. It is said to have been born in 1575, not on the beginning of the Ame. revolution. The White Man Is Hard and Cruel and Fills the Natives with Terror of Him. From The Literary Digest. John Flake remarked in one of his works on early American history that while we may speak of uncleviled tribes as "vavages," there is no one on earth so savage as the white man, and his savagery is most apparent when he is dealing with the black people, this name, Professor Starr, too, the Chicago anthropologist who recently visited the Kongo, says that when he came back to civilization he could not help noting the hard, cruel features of the black people, and he knew the hearts of the black people even before they find they have reason for fear. Mr. C. H. Norman, who writes in The Westminster Review (London) on the white man's rule in Africa, quotes Abraham Lincoln as saying, "He is good enough to govern another man without that other man's consent." Thus is explained the horrors of slavery. Thus it is that in the colonial debate in the British Parliament using the details of German oppression in Africa; that the Kongo debate in the Belgian Chamber of Representatives revealed such sickening cruelties on the part of the Belgian speculators in the Free State; that the British session was forced to listen to terrible tales of British militarism in South Africa. The classic historian Meldred that there was always something new heard from Africa, but black races, their invasions wards, are unfortunately becoming an old story; and the great question of humanity to-day, the great problem for colonizing governments to salve, says Mr. Norman, is the only from barbarism but from the oppression of civilized people. To quote: "The history of the nineteenth century is the history of the rise of democracy, but its last years, and the opening decade of the nineteenth century, are full of warning for the admirers and supporters of democracy. "The democracies of the world, if called on to account for their treatment of their worker birthright, would have to be rethought and most abandoned despot that the world has hitherto known. What judgment would be passed by the Kongolee on Belgium by the Herversos on Germany, by the Principe of Naples on Thome and Princine Islanders on Portugal, by the Hoyas on France?" FACES LIFE IMPRISONMENT Mot N. Horton, N. J. April 24. *Goron Phillips, a crippled Negro of Burlington, who because he owes Barlington county $ for poll tax and $1.75 for costs since been held a prisoner in the county jail here. The arrest was made under the provisions of Section 700 of the Revised Statutes of New Jersey, passed under that law the tax delinquency will have to remain in jail until his is paid. The old Negro has not, the $2.75 necessary to obtain his release, and has no opportunity to earn any money while in jail. The record shows that he was crimsoned for life unless some charitable defined person comes to his rescue and pays his debt. The records fail to disclose any other purpose for such money in the history of the county, and it might be presumed that this old Negro is the only poll tax delinquency in the county. However, the county would require a jail several times larger than the Wall Street Jersey State jail to the wall tax delinquency, the law enforced against them, it has been against this man. Dr. Washington at Carnegie Hall. The twenty-ninth anniversary of the establishment of the Wall Street church, on West 53rd street, will be celebrated at Carnegie hall. Sunday night, May 5, with appropriate exercises. Dr. Matthew W. Gilbert, the pastor, has worked to make the building fit the needs of the event. He and the officers of his church count themselves most fortunate in securing the presence of Dr. Booker W. of the Tuskegee Institute for the NEW BREW'S NEW CHURCH WASHINGTON, April 29- The Cosmopolitan Temple Baptist church, one of the youngest, largest and most prosperous congregations in the city, has just had plains and specifications drawn for probably the most magnificent and largest church edited by Negus in America. It is of a beautiful design, purely classical and of the Roman style in and out. The front elevation is to be of Select No. 1 impervious pressed brick, trimmed with granite and marble. The main entrance will be through a three door Roman colonnade into the restroom colonnade which will have marble to the rear. Large polished granite columns with Incle trimmings and a Vermont gray granite base. The entire building will be trimmed out in oak, walnut and maple. It will have first and second galleries in the main auditorium, altogether which will seat three thousand people. Dr. S. P. W. Drew, the pastor, has shown his ability in more than one city and church as an evangelist, organizer and financier. It is said that he raises more money in higher-collections than any minister in the city. He seems to possess a natural magnet and never falls to have a good mull one whose gifts the architects have been studying Dr. Drew's scheme for sometime. They have made a special study of many of the great churches of the world and as near as possible this edition is planned after the great Cathedral of Rome and Spergium's great manshade of London. It will be another great ornament to the National capital, and also a living monument to the skill, brain and hand work of the early fifty thousand persons are estimated to have been converted in different parts of the United States through his preaching. He is also president of the National Negro Baptist Evangelical Convention of America and president of the William McKinley Normal and Industrial PRESIDENT GUSH AND MUSH IN JAMESTOWN ADDRESS Confederate Traitors and Union Patriots Look Atkie to Him.

Dean of the Teachers' College of Howard University Washington, lectured, last Monday night at the Mount Olive Baptist church, thirty. Dr. Moore's lecture touched upon the importance of education for Negro people in America showing how they had developed during forty years of freedom in building homes and churches and in amassing taxable property. He emphasized the need for the development of millions of dollars. He emphasized the value of the Negro in American life today by showing how he has become from year to year, a more important community factor in the development of the country. In closing he advocated are extended educational advantages to cultivation of self-control and the sense of unity, virtues and manhood important in the building up of an race or nation. The lecture was enthusiastically received by a large and appreciative audience was held at the close of the lecture. Serious Error Committed. HATON ROUGE, La. April 15.

Successful Application of Technical Training Frederick Douglas Center Makes Worthy Extension in Establishing a Home. CHICAGO, April 29.—A few days ago a large box containing twenty-one large and small patterns was shipped to the Jamestown Exhibition by the McGuire Car Company of Paris, Illinois, one of the largest car companies in the West. Before the box was shipped scores of newspaper men, engineers and business men were permitted to inspect what is said to be the most complete and most valuable exhibit of the kind ever sent to an exhibition in this country. The thing of special interest to us is that the contents of this precious box is entirely the work of a colored man named George A. Harrison, Mr. Harrison in the pattern maker of this large manufacturing company, and the managers regarded the work of this man as the best possible advertisement for the company make. Mr. Harrison is one of the highest salaried men on the pay roll of the company. He makes all the patterns for all of the steel, brace and iron castings for the company. He graduated at the head of his class sixty members in a pattern making establishment in Chicago. The Frederick Douglass Center, of which previous and frequent mention has been made in Titz Aux, made an important contribution to the work of the reck by opening a Settlement House right to the midst of what is known as the "black belt" of Chicago. The work is in charge of a strong committee of capable women, connected with the Douglass Center, and important roles are confidently predicated on the life of work undertaken in this field. How the work is degrading and debasing influences that beset them is to be answered by women, white and colored, who have been willing to throw aside pleasure and love of ease and in a spirit of real helpfulness work in the face of everything that may need them. It is an inspiring sight to see white women who are a part of the best life of Chicago and colored women of culture and refinement and accustomed to the best of everything, go at this work with the welfare and happiness depended upon it. Nothing of this kind has ever been carried to a success in this city. The neglected white children in every quarter of this city are being looked after, protected and saved lives of usefulness, but ours are the scenes of crime and immoralities, "with no eye to pity or arm to save." They live and grow up among scenes and surroundings that fit and train them only for hospitals and pails. The women who are sentimentalists, they are terribly earnest and willing to make almost any sacrifice to save our boys and girls. They are students of social conditions and have the cooperation of those who are helping to better social conditions among the less fortunate people of our large cities. If our people are to be saved from the charge of making it easy for a large criminal class to grow up and flourish amongst us such work as this which is being undertaken by the Frederick Douglas Center is of the utmost importance. REMEMBERS FAITHFUL SERVANT, Nechmiah G. Gorman Leaves Nearly ALL His Keejat to Aged Negress. Batonfort, Conn., April 29.—The will of his son, Sun, was filed for probate to the day. The bulk of his estate, estimated at $25,000, is left to Ann G. Wright, an Afro-American who entered Mr. Gormham's employ at the time of his marriage more than half a century ago. He is a maid to Mrs. Gormham and served her up to her death about fifteen years ago. Then she became housekeeper for Mr. Gormham and in his last illness gave her the speech in his will of her fidelity to her duties in her fifty years of service. Mr. Gormham gives her $6,000 in cash, the old homeestead at Stratford and all of his fifty years of service. He left $200 to the First Ecclesiastical Society of Stratford and a like amount to his relatives. Mina Wright is now alone over 60 years old and she has known all her days in the Gormham homeestead. Raising the Standards of Women as Domestics WANT TRAINED HANDS Paper Read by Mrs. L. R. Clark At Last Meeting of the Business League at Atlanta. I have had under my supervision for more than four years an employment bureau in connection with my training school. The bureau was added for the purpose of fur- nishing work for students who were not yet self-supporting, and at the same time of giving an opportunity to those wishing to earn a living for themselves along domestic lines. I could readily find suitable work for students already in training, but a ma- jority of those who applied for work and who were compelled by circumstances to earn their bread by their hands were utterly unprepared to do the work they ought When those conditions presented themselves to me a very natural thing suggested itself. It was this: "Why must a cooking department in connection with my dressmaking and millinery department where these persons who are seeking employment without knowledge in the arts and the rudiments of cleaning, cooking and the general requirements of domestic life?" I believed that the difficulty lay not in the unwillingness to work, but in the lack of training. I appealed to the housekeepers of Washington for their cooperation in establishing a cooking department. I am glad to say they heartily responded and encouraged me to listen to the school. Through the efforts of this committee a number of five and ten dollar subscriptions were received amounting in all to $450. With this we were able to hire a highly trained Jones, a high-quality, whole-souls, race-joining woman, an expert cook of considerable reputation in Washington, gave her services as teacher for one year. Thus the cooking department was placed on a basis. I want to make an appeal to you, the best thinking men and women of the race, to encourage the training of our young women and to recognize the dignity of the service. There are so many people in this work, there is support by this kind of work, and as we are largely judged by the class of women who come in daily contact with the white people they serve, it behooves us, therefore, to encourage and foster this kind of training, thus raising to a much higher plane the standards for our women as domestic and wives. I believe that every woman, black or white, rich or poor, should be trained in the art of the domestic service, with a special care of family in order that the household machinery may run more smoothly, as the happiness of the entire household largely depends upon the domestic helper. We should, so the domestic helper is to the home. We were a time in the history he world when the demand for trained domestic helpers was so great as at present "deserted" as well as "trained Mind." I no reason why the trained servant should not receive the same respect and consideration that the trained nurse, doctor, or any other professional woman receives. Our women cannot hope to reach the higher plane of usefulness of the home life they should wait until this great change occurs. They will never be solved until the relation of servant and mistress becomes more coral and considerate. We have many reasons to be encouraged by the domestic conditions in Washington. We have sent out through our employment bureau more than five hundred domestic helpers. And among that number, we have hired and hired a record of only three serious complaints. By being careful as to the class of servants placed in homes through our employment bureau in Washington we have given proper places to the consultation of a committee of white women who have pledged themselves to take more interest in their servants, seeing that they are given proper places to sleep, proper time for recreation and self-improvement. The white women we have interested are perfectly willing to encourage their help in recreation and self-improvement. Servants in homes should receive more consideration than any other class of working women because they have longer hours and are mostly confined are worked harder and are deprived of nearly all social advantages. It has been said by one of our most noted leaders that it is one thing to work and another to be worked. Their work is working but drugged in being worked. Conditions have changed rapidly during the past year. The white women are best realizing that the only way to get involved is to be kind and considerate. The worker is not wholly responsible for conditions. Mothers are often forced to leave home in order to earn a living, thus neglecting their children. From my experience, I have been able to study both sides of the question, and am compelled to say that my sympathy is with both the housekeeper and the doer. I am aware of the cases that the young experienced housewives, by not having the proper training along this particular line, have been responsible for the great deal of friction be it with the housekeeper or with me. I am more than glad to say through the movement of the Intermunicipal League for Household Research of New York the housekeepers all over this country are able to肩 their attitude toward the domestic help. It is my chief aim to create a higher ideal of domestic life, in its relation to society, and to fit and prepare our young women for a more useful career. Many food in the kitchen, and time in search of work, without friends or acquaintances, without means of support, without the training that would enable them to earn a livelihood, and in consequence of the conditions naturally fall into the moral quicksands so common in large cities, with a few of these, and provide them with some means of moral industrial salvation. I shall feel that one of the highest purposes of the training school will have been accomplished. I believe much good care be brought along line by patience, perseverance, thoroughness and hard work. I do not wish to have you feel that I would hold out no other advantages to you to save that of domestic helper. But since this work now SARAYANA BRUSH, April 30, Rev. Bobt, J.

ATR Threé centuries ago, May 26, 1607 Jamestown was settled by a handful 0 English adventurers, and by accession: from time to time ‘the States of the “South were settled by the same sort o} people: Cavaliers they like to be styled but with a large percentage of tougirs and regular consignments of convicts to furnish Ixbor for the colonists, until the introduction of African slavery, at Jamestown, ‘in 16"%, or 1620, when the consignments of convicts ceased. The celebration of the settlement of Jamestown was begun last week. with President Roosevelt as the main attrac- ion, and .a‘vast naval display. The Exposition grounds and buildings are far fron: completion, Jt was right'and proper that no dis Gingrished Afro-American was assigned a vart in the opening of the Exposition ‘2% woud have been good for the Re pablie if Jamestown had‘ never Seer acttled, ur had been settled by other sorts of people than it was. ‘The civil ation built up’on the Jamestown settle: ment has been and is a curse to the Republ& rather than a dlessyyg. The arrogance and insolence of “the original Cavalier stock and the lawlessness off the convict and: the servility and ob sequiousness oi the slave stock, after three centuries, are still the dominating imfuences in the life of the civilization planted in the soil of Jamestown—a civilization which has been as a yoke about the neck of the Republic, provok- mg bitterness and” strife, and out. of which have sprung the red flames of ene gigantic civil war threatening to destroy the greatest Republic in the history of mankind. . * It is because Jamestown and what it stands for in the history of the-Re public has been a curse, and is a curse. rather than a blessing that we refuse to enthuse over «the Exposition intended to celebrate the settlement of it. ‘The Troubles of a President.

Now, then, if President Roosevelt should be renogjnated, or if aman named by him should be nominated. could he be elected? We doubt it And jo say that. Roosevelt: is stronger to-day than he was four years ago is equival- ‘tnt to whistling down the wind. _ But President Roosevelt is one of the ‘most intellectual, resourceful and cour- ‘geous men who ever acted a conspicu- ous part im American ‘politics, and we are bound to admire him, even when we are compelled to differ from him on matters of policy, and to believe that he is honest and sincere in any matter of public concern with which he has to deal. We have admired him for twenty years and supported him when we! thought he was in the right and differee from him when we thought he was ir the wrong, and ‘we shall continue te do so to the end, because we carry our manhood under our own hat, and shalt do so to the end. ‘Gacestany Paits Maem ta che Geen, | ‘the Taft boom for President got ov! | in the National open last week wher Congressman Burton of Ohio, who i }'an Admistration spokesman, mage ar address at ‘Trenton, N.

In an un- guarded moment he became a Rough Rider and although he never saw any service thereby made himself an in- divisible part of the fortunes of Theo- dore Roosevelt, Recently a vicancy oc- curred in the Civil-Service Commission and the President appointed the tabasco man to fill it, and by so doing made the Commission a Democratic instead of a non-partisan body. Mr, Mellhenny: soon discovered that white Southerners did not go in for the civil service examinations in num- bers to suit him, and that black-and-tan Southerners made the most of the ex- aminations and got most of the ap- pointments; thereupon he got angry, and decided to make an investigation on spots of the South about it. Incident ally it is understood that the examina tions, which have always been in com? mon, so that the papers would not show she color of the applicant, will be sepa- rate; that is, the whites will be ex- amitied in one room and the black and tuns in another. Did you ever! A like tule holds in the War Department, that applicants for positions in the civil serv- ice for Porto Rico, Hawaii and the Phil- ippines must file photographs with their papers.

Press The Boston Evening Transcript. I see through the columns of your valued paper that General J. Warren Keller of Ohio has introduced in the House of Representatives a bill providing for the reduction of Southern representation, giving as his reason for so doing "the action of the Southern States in disfranchising the Negro." The preamble to this bill is as follows: The States aimed at in General Keifer's state are Alabama, Arkansas, Florida, Georgia, Louisiana, Mississippi, North Carolina, South Carolina, Tennessee, Texas and Virginia. Two related admissions are made in the preamble: (1) The admission that there has been and is disfranchisement in the above-named States. (2) That Congress is satisfied of the correctness of the admission. Assuming that Congress is made up of men of average intelligence it is indeed time that it should be satisfied that there has been and is disfranchisement in the Southern States, for such has been the case for thirty years. The mischief was begun in 1876 when the Negro was denied the right of suffrage by fraud and intimidation, by within the State, have been brazen enough to disfranchise their Negro citizens by making and enforcing ingrulous laws which are construed to mean one thing when applied to black men, applied to black men, Mississippi, Louisiana, Alabama, North aged as a point Indirect Virginia. "character qualification." "employment qualification." "understanding." "and grandfather" clauses for no other purpose than to perpetuate the civil and political inequality of the state in the making of execution of laws, by excluding him from the jury and by subjecting him to injustices and inequalities which a voteless citizen is too apt to receive, the Southern denegacy has the Negro as a victim, the women were gagged and bound, hands and feet. In view of these conditions, in my opinion, it would be a compounding of felony for Congress to reduce Southern representation as provided for in this bill so that a right admission that the South has a right to disfranchise the Negro because he is a Negro. This conceded and the Negro Amendment is nullified. This done and the South is committed. The Reagan Newman said of the leper colony in the Hawaiian Islands: "A pitiful place to visit and a hell to live in." I predicate that such results would follow a reduction of Southern representation from my view to that of those who think that the Southern States, rather than have their representation in Congress reduced, say from 98 to 81 members, would restore to the Negroes the right of suffrage, oudoftheir right to vote. Southern statesmen are always on the lookout for an opportunity to pose as martyrs. What could bring to them so great an occasion to show their martyr spirit as the commander of the $20,000 salaries and return to their homes—and to oblivion? Playing the role of a martyr would be much more agreeable to them than the acknowledgment of a wrong—a moral lapse unknown to the community. This does not mean that the Southern whites in toto are in sensible to the wrongs which are heaped upon the Negro. Far from it. Some of them are as broad-grained and as good as any, anywhere, but they are in a hopeless minority. In the second place, the Southern white man, with his present intellectual and ethical outlook, is invincible of giving the Negro a right to vote. The Negro is the postulate of all of his thinking, and he cannot understand how this "inferior" can be granted equal political rights without granting him also the land of a white woman in marriage. The martyrs your daughter?" is the question fired at him who is hold enough to advocate political equality for the Negro. But the Fourteenth Amendment commands the South to choose between granting the Negro political equality and accepting the Congress." I believe that the South would prefer the latter. In the third place, the South is becoming restive under what many are pleased to term the "white man's burden." Seeing its inability to defend the Negro, on its principles of law, morality and equity, the South stands ready to shift this "burden" to other shoulders. What a delightful opportunity to shift this "burden" if Congress were to step in and say, "You have been held and are robbing the Negro by your him or we will punish you by reducing your representation." To this the South would answer: We have done the best we could for the Negro. We cannot do more. If you wish to punish us for doing our best we will accept the penalty which your best we can bear without thanking task of bearing this "burden." I do not believe that the most bribe Northern marchants would run the risk of bringing about such dire results for the gain of the state and another than something must be done if this Government would ever be a "government of the people, for the people of the people," only by the Constitution which power in Congress, and if Congress is brave enough it will right the existing wrong by enforcing the violation of the provisions of the Fifteenth Amendment is the Pandora box from which have sprung forth the political scents that bitterly sting the Negro. This The right of citizens of the United States to vote shall not be denied or abridged by the United States, or by any State, on account of race, color, or any condition of servitude. The Censor shall have the power to enforce this article under appropriate legislation. The language of this article is plain, direct and unequivocal, and all laws of States that conflict therewith are unconstitutional and should be abolished of meeting Southern republicans' penalty for disfranchising the Negro in violation of the Fifteenth Amendment, Congress it seems to should, may to every man who comes from a congregational citizen of a civilized citizen has the right of suffrage because of his race of color: We are the sole judges of the elections, returns and qualifications of our members. We are "satisfied that the right to vote for male inhabitants of the district, of age and citizens of the United States, at election therein for some or all said officers, has been and now is denied, or in some way abridged," in violation of the Fifteenth Amendment; we are the judge set your election and shall order a new election. That Congress has the power to say when, where and under what regulations its members may be elected is clearly pressed in Article 1. See the Constitution of the United States, which follows: The times, places and manner of holding elections for senators and representatives shall be prescribed in each State by the Legislature thereof; but the Congress may at any time by law by law make as to such regimen as to the places and senators. By taking this stop, Congress, no doubt, would find it necessary to hold Federal elections at different times and places from State elections and Federal elections for long period of time. I firmly believe that the results obtained would justify the experiment. It would at least be interesting to compare the number of votes cast for Federal officers with those one. State officers. This would, would be an effective way to deal with the existing situation. It may sound radical, but it is not the United States enrols. Here great opportunity for greedy to threaten the life of this republic. Will it do it? The stars may know; I do not. Mars may know I do Cambridge. ORB W. TEA. LAWYER SPRAGGINS. An Afro-American Who is a Credit to the New Jersey Bar. From The Mercantile and Financial Times. The death of ex-Judge J. Herbert Potts, one of the most notable men—one who served the people ably in many important capacities—was briefly, though feelingly and frequently referred to in judge notices, well-known and highly-esteemed colored lawyer of Jersey City. If we are not mistaken, to Mr. Spragginia belongs the distinction and the honor of being the first member of the judiciary to die the sad event. That such should be the case is not, however, surprising, as such incidents are characteristic of Mr. Spragginia's highest admiration for Judge Potts, which feeling was sincerely reciprocated by the Judge, who upon more than one occasion went out of his way to speak in the court, and Mr. Spragginia's sterling abilities as a lawyer. It is now some years since Mr. Stranggins was admitted to practice at the New Jersey Bar and during all that time his course has been used as a course of study, but the sixty-seven admiration of the bench and of his fellow members. He has often been connected with important cases and his conduct of the same has been such as to have made him a lawyer. It is lives such a his that justify the expectations of the future of the colored race entertained by Booker T. Washington and others. The career of Mr. Stranggins shows that he is a great energy be he circummised by prejudice on the so-called "color line." TILLMAN CLULATES IN PITTSBURG. Interruptions Cause Him to Denounce Europeans. PRINCETON, Pa. April 24. As a precautionary measure twenty-two detectives and a squad of uniformed policemen were stationed in the Carnegie Music hall tonight during the address by Senator Ted Cruz of South Carolina, who discussed the rage problem before the Park avenue (Allegheny) athletic club. Several exciting incidents occurred, but no trouble resulted. There were but ten Negroes in the which filled the Negro Hall after overflowing. At the close of the address, in which he declared the races in the South were gradually becoming more opposed to one another. Senator Tillman declared that he would not whether the Negro was the equal of the white man. The entire audience, except the teenagers, voted in the negative. One man took exceptions to Tillman's statement, and interrupted his interruptions. Tillman made him admit that he came from Europe and he hitherto denounced Europeans who undertake to judge questions concerning this country. In discussing the Negro can be handled by Senator Tillman declared that Booker T. Washington was the harbor of refuge and safety to which people flee when other places fail, and that Booker T. Washington was, but one Negro ten million and was half white. DELAVAL BERESFORD'S WILL Housekeeper Claims Larger Share of the Estate Than He Left Her. E. Paso, Texas, April 24. -- Creditors of the estate of Lord Delaval Berfordson who was Killed in a train wreck in North Dakota last December, have filed an application in the district court here for the appointment of an administrator and prosecution. Among the plaintiffs is Flora Wolff, the Negro housekeeper of Beresford, to whom he willled $10,000. The others are persons whose claims in a New York lawyer, representing the Beresford firm, are not discount. The estate is valued at over a million dollars, and consists of lands and cattle in Mexico and Canada. After bequeathing $10,000 to Flora Wolff the testator left the remainder of the property to his two brothers, Admiral Marcel Beresford, and Admiral Marc Beresford. The Wolff woman declined to accept the amount left her, claiming a wife's share under the laws of Mexico. Admiral Beresford, when here a few weeks ago, failed to reach compromise. Flora Wolff, and left her other claims be adjusted by his attorney in New York. THE NEW YORK AGE: THURSDA NORFOLK'S YOUNG BUSINESS MEN Branch of Business League Much Needed—Commercial Characteristics Being Recognized. NORFOLK, Va., April 29—The efficiency of the productive element of the Afro-American people in this section is constantly rising to a higher standard. Any person who is optimistic and not lastingly losing faith in the capabilities of her husband admit that the unbounded possibilities of an increase of wealth through acquiring the fertile soil, capital and skilled labor will keep Afro-American peoples above the threshold of civilization. Young Afro-Americans must contribute largely to this increase of production if we are to counteract the impending crisis. A number of Norfolk's young Afro-American entrepreneurs are adding to the marft of commerce, so much so that their competitors consider them as men possessing commer- Mr. W. T.

College. GREENSBORO, N. C. April 25—The and M. college students closed the most successful sessions ever held in its history, and a class of nine young men graduated with honors this afternoon. The students exercised, opened Sunday with the annual sermon by Rev. Augustus Shepard, D. B. of Durham, N. C. The sermon was instructive and full of inspiration, and their exercises On the most interesting features of the commencement was witnessed Wednesday evening when a drama, "Burring the Barriers," was presented by a number of young men for the first finish, and entertaining fright and finish, and interesting fright and finish in thousand people. It was written by Mrs. J. R. Dudley, the wife of the president, and who has a National reputation as a writer. Her work has been printed in many papers and magazines of the country, and on the opening day of the race. The drama, presented, shows the progress made by the race along all lines since their coming to this country by special invitation. The agricultural feature was brought out in the last act, for young men who had germinated from the institution and were visiting the institutions of their important people, in structuring them in farm work, and at the same time teaching them manhood and womanhood. The real work was shown up. The author had in mind the interest of her race when she wrote the drama and it will certainly make convenient for Thursday was the real commencement day. The day opened in the morning with an address to the young men by Charles Stewart M. M. Charnley, followed by the commencement exercises in the afternoon. A program was rendered by the graduating class which consisted of chorus, "The Old North State"; prayer chorus, "Stepping Together"; artion; and W. W. Williams; solo, "The King of the Main"; C. L. Foster; oration, "Roles as an Inspiration to Mechanis"; J. C. Truman; quartette "In Vocal Combat"; Willeke Kock solo; quartette "Wearth the White"; C. G. Davis. The annual address was delivered by Dr. A. C. True of Washington, D.C. director of the experiment station on the Agricultural University, and he good inspiration to the young men. He discussed "Industrial Leadership." Dr True is a man of wide experience and ability, and he brought to the audience the importance of declaring that unless they paid attention to the agriculture of the South in the future and prepare to meet the demands, they would find themselves supplanted by others. His address was full of good things. President Budley delivered an address and awarded diplomas. He offered some good advice to the graduates. He is doing a great work in the State.

A new phase of the give question developed here to day with the strike of twelve Negroes leaving the town and forced to working along white men. When the manager of the Footie Babe down the morning he found that his No. 2 laborers had framed up articles of protest against "murdering" the race in The protest was presented by a black and greedy spokesman. The manager of the company made a statement to make themselves source or 24 to work. Eleven of them chose the latter course.

It is really discouraging to see and hear of so much "hot air" exploitation of our position in the music industry as our actors when they have an occasion to pop off, especially when they will not substantially encourage our young men who are really doing something materially. I consciently believe that the young men in our school of the would-be leaders would spend more time in trying to cultivate an unselfish spirit and allow the young men to deliver their marketable wares. Why is it that Norfolk cannot have a local Negro school? Norfolk must establish another bank, printing and other mercantile establishments and cut out this good time and depending upon the agreed ones to foster and encourage Afro-American business concerns. This gospel must be preached to our students in Norfolk to diligent in his business he shall be able to stand before kings.

From The Wilmington Daily Messenger. It always gives me pleasure to notice actually commendable work in one of those that most especially if it is one who has taken advantage of the opportunities offered by the State for the education of the Negro. This pleasure is twofold: first, it is a pleasure to know that the State is doing a good work in the offering to Negroes the opportunity to better their condition, and again, it is a pleasure to chronicle instances of Negress taking advantage of those opportunities themselves to do otherwise would be able to do. Therefore we publish with pleasure the following from The Greenboro Record giving an account of the success in his chosen all-time graduate of the Mechanical college for Negress at Greenboro: "The worth of the Negro Agricultural and Mechanical College is being continually demonstrated by the success of a main truman training of the Record has been called to the creditable record Prof. G. A. Edwards, of the class of 1801, is making him immediately upon graduation was appointed head of the mechanical department at Radbeth which department was organized by him. After making a satisfactory and creditable record there he was appointed teacher of natural science and superintendent of the men's industrial school of the oldest and most prominent Negro schools of the country. The industrial department under Professor Edwards, has grown so rapidly that a new building is being erected under Prof. Edwards supervision and direction, and also he has been given the work of designing and constructing a five thousand dollar addition to the administration building to the Ether Hall of Shaw University. The society which controls Shaw University and other schools throughout the South has given recognition to Prof. Edwards ability as an architect, greater than that accorded to a Negro architect. "It is gratifying to note that while there is quite a demand for the graduate from other States, that the majority of the young men trained at this institution, like Professor Edwards, are remaining," she added, and reflecting credit upon the school. The mistake many people make is that they judge the Negro race by its worst element. This is not right. We have in every community beaten, uprooted, who are demons. We have to elevate them to the highest level. We should have the moral aid of the white people, and it is as unjust to the better class of Negroes to judge their race by the low class as it would be to class all white people with the criminals of the lower class. We have to live together—for many years to come at least. Then is it not better that there should be peace and harmony between them, brought about and fostered by efforts on the part of the better class. It is an unnatural morality and honesty among those of the lower class? There is among the Negroes a class who realize the shortcomings of their race and who are striving to lift it to a higher plight. It is an unnatural work with the lower class. They look to the white people for this. Duty and self-interest alike of the white people demand that they shall give it. Four White Persons are Injured and Brevical is Broken Up. ASUITAN, Ky., April 24.—At Sutton, near Grayston, a free-for-all fight last night between the Patrick, Sutton and Haney boys broke up a revival service. The affair was staged by the group, holding the meeting of Albert Haney's sweetheart, Haney struck Jim Patrick, and their friends took sides, starting a battle that literally "cleaned out" the church. Jim Patrick's skull was crushed, and he cannot survive. The girl, who was the innocent cause of the wounds, was struck with a painful knife in the combatants' arms. Two other combatants were injured. The principals are under arrest. Real Estate-For Sale and To Let. ELEGANT FLATS To Let Handmade Apartments with all improvements at Medford Rentals.

CIVIL SERVICE IS A HUMBUG THE VIRGINIA TEACHERS Are Deprived of Their Rights by Arbitrary Rules in Salary and Summer Normal Benefits. RICHMOND, Va., April 29—There are to be found in Richmond and all through the Southland 'Afro-Americans who see more of the darker side of life for the race than the brighter side. To these the more optimistic are advising a cessation of whining and complaining and above all, a 'discontinuance of airing through the mouth of the crowd' among their persecutions and the "thousand and one" prescriptions and persecutions to which they are daily subjected. This advice may sound like a yoke of oppression and discrimination, but for him who faces the burden, the answer goes back to the optimista. "$ pray these, cease thy counsel which calls our ear as profit-seeking in a safe." These optimists even tell us, in many instances, that the "difficulty" is in us, and if we would but take the trouble to search it out, we would lose it. We know that the remedy ourselves. From whence comes their information or upon what authority they speak, I know not. We down South know the cause of race prejudice among us, and teach us to be brave in the North, East and West and wherever the Southern makes his habitation. The Southern white people are an orthodox people, wedded to the tendenza and teaching of the Southern people, which they are loathe to depart. Long uses give color of right, and arising as these uses have from a period dating back to within half a dozen years of the time of the people upon the Jamestown peninsula, the three hundredth anniversary celebration of which was so magnificently inaugurated a week ago in historic Hampton Roads, the Southern whites these long users have become authority. And what was the cause that led to the uses which gave this color of right and authority? There is but one answer—African slavery, those of it existed from the day the slave was master and slave; the relation of the slave to society and to civil government, and the true philosophy and practice of African slavery in the South, as it existed from the day the slave was master and slave in the Dutch, down to emancipation, know why the Afro-American of to-day, it matters not how highly cultured or refined he may be, is condemned; it is all because his origin can be traced back to who tells us slavers. was a blewing in discourse; "blessing" it may have been, but ignominious treatment of the fathers has been cited upon the children from generation to generation. And these orthodox sons of the South have carried with them their doctrine of age and class and race and color where they are born, in race and abroad, and wherever they can secure an auditor or get a reader. They have sown the rankest seeds of falsehood, until from one end of the country to the other there are thousands of orthodox sons of the Afro-American's emancipation and citizenship. Seekers after truth have been told by these orthodox sons that the worst elements of the race are those who are not measured. Seekers after truth, when they come among us, are not taken in hand by those orthodox sons and taken to our schools and colleges, nor to our local churches, pastored by men who possess that higher Christian education so essential to the moral and spiritual uplift of a people, no, on the contrary, to the weed, plaintine hymns and plantation medodies of slavery days. "Sun do more mermons" was the source from which they formed the idea that the intrinsic worth of the Afro-American is theocracy. And as the Afro-American rises in the scale of moral, religious, intellectual and material being, the greater become these prescriptions and discriminations, with the aim that they be "whiteness" and "firm-crowm" everywhere. One of the best evidences of "white-ishism" is in the condition of affairs now existing within the ranks of the Republican party organization in the State of Virginia. The only white-ishism leaders are not content with working it in the party ranks but have carried it into civil service appointments. It is done in this way. Under a recent ruling on the eligible poster for clerk or carrier in the postoffice can at the discretion of the postmaster be transferred from the one list to the other. As a general rule in the South young white men who have entered the examination can secure more lucrative positions and with less arduous work vit hireprivate concerns, hence they do not enter the examinations. The white men who have entered the examination can scholarship of the average Afro-Americans who enter, consequently the Afro-Americans usually head the lists. The law says the lists of eligibles shall be posted in a conspicuous place, but this is not the case. If a list is pose the list. If a clerk is needed, a sufficient number of Afro-Americans are transferred from the clerk list to the carrier list till the name of a white man has been checked. If a white man carries the same list thearies are assigned to and in that way the whites are all selected before their year of eligibility expires, while the Afro-Americans are left Here is still another artful dodge against the intelligent Afro-American teacher. The announcement has announced the time and phases for the holding of the summer normal schools for teachers. Ten of these normals are for white teachers and one for Afro-American teachers. Those for white teachers will be held in the State and the State will and will be easy of access for the teachers. The one for Afro-American teachers will be held in the Virginia Normal and Industrial Institute, Petersburg, accessible conveniently only to the teachers. The Tidewater and Middle sections of the State. It is further announced that the county boards have agreed to increase the pay of all teachers five dollars per month the next normal, the full four weeks after normal, the full four weeks after return to the county superintendent a certificate of the conductor of the institute attended, certifying to the fact. The presponder in the number of normals for white teachers, thus carrying the normals to the former, shows the rise to which the State school authorities have reported to increase the pay of the white teachers. But for "the Jim-crowism" Afro-American teachers, thus carrying the normals to the former and profit by an increase in pay by more fabric of the people. When he speaks out against "illly-whiteism" the cry is that he is trying to disrupt the Republican party; not so, he is only asking for a vote in the general election, with a ratio proportionate to his voting power in the general elections. "Lily-whiteism" and "Jim-crowism" are the twin evils of twentieth-century liberalism, and the one about which aloud be called whining or whatnot, let it be taught in the schoolroom; let it be sounded from the pulpit and the rostrum; let it be heralded by the other; let it be told to the other; yea, "tell it in Gath and publish it in the streets at Akselon," until its iniquity is known everywhere, and until it shall rise as an asterisk to the brill of a liberty free people. GEORGE ST. JULIAN STEPHENS. SEASON OF ENTERTAINMENTS AND CONCERTS AT TAIRYTOWN This Hudson River City in the Midst of a Social Wave. TARRYTOWN, April 29. — A very serious affair happened on Wednesday evening, April 24th Edward immony, one of the tried to commit and assault on the person of Miss Julia Flemming. As Miss Flemming, who is an Afro-American, was leaving Selliger's drug store in Fountain Square, about 10.30 p.m. he marked to which she paid no attention and started on her way home, as she worked for postmaster James Requa Timmery followed her and overtook her at the corner of Hammond place and the street to prevent her outcries and threw her to the ground. Miss Flemming resisted and struggled fiercely but he was getting the best of her, when his hand slipped from her throat then he threw the hand to the throat and distressed can. Officer Delaney heard her cries and ran to her assistance, thus preventing the villain accomplishing his distasteful deed. Timmery was arrested for $500 bill, which was furnished by his mother; Lawyer George C. Andrews will represent him. Not long ago William Green was assaulted by five white men and nearly murdered, and no arrests were made. American had committed this act on a white woman, that the whole town would have been aroused and a lynching bee would have been next on the program. The saddling of our race should use force and see that justice is carried out. At the last regular meeting of Lincoln Lodge, No. 4429, G. O. of, O. F.

Interesting Exercise at A. and M. College GREENBORO, N. C., April 25—The anniversary of the Y. M. C. A., was observed at the A. and M. college last night. On account of indecency of the weather the audience was small. At eight o'clock in the morning the music from the piano. The choir sang the hymn, "Now the Day Is Over." The choruses and solos were well rendered. The emotion by C. B. Reid was very fine, and the paraphrase of the Y. M. C. A.'s crowning feature of the program was an address by the Rev. J. W. Mureb, of Wilmington. He said, "Self realization is the chief work of Christianity, the young men come to the college to learn from this organization to go along their brothers, organize, systematize and Christianize those with whom they come in contact. His address was very formal. The audience joined in singing the college song, after which President Dudley spoke of the work of the school and of the effort of the students to help themselves in order to show to the friends of the college how much they have received and that there are also willing to do something for themselves. THE NEW YORK AGE: THURSDAY, MAY 2, 1907. Live News from Different Parts of the South — "The Clansman" Repulsive. The daily papers say that a Negro porpoise clubbed to death by whites at Trevant, Tenn., two weeks ago for becoming inattentive. The parrhive have not been attacked. The Mayor of Columbus, Ohio, has immortalized himself by refusing to accept anything that he does not done nothing to earn it. We wonder if Tillman, Vardaman, Dixon & Co., who have no twinge of conscience or blush of shame, will accept the peace, will take the hint, and follow suit? The Macon (Ga.) Telegraph, a white daily, pays the following compliment to Prof. Council: "We do not know a normal man, nor a Normal, near Huntsville, Ala., but the utterances of W. H. Council, its president, have repeatedly shown him to be one of the wisest of the Negro educators, first at Bunkie, La., to stir up race hatred and cause a race riot occasioned by the lynching of a colored man charged with criminal assault on a white woman, and to have the lynchers lynched the lynchers claimed they were fired on by a crowd of Negroes who had hidden near the jail for the purpose of either rescuing or defending the prisoner. Finally, a thorough investigation was made by the officers of the law, and the story was branded as untrue. The general belief is that when the prisoner got away from the jail, several shots were found scatteringly by the mob, which hit and wounded some of its members. If shooting of this fashion would continue when the drunken man assassinated, molls would soon be a thing." The Charlotte (N. C.) Daily Observers, which says would like to tie the Senator Tillman and Mr. Garson over a clothes-editorially says, "More disheartening than lynchings to Mr. William Lloyd Garrison 2d as a friend of equal rights is the acquiescence of such men as ex-convict Harvard and Bishop Lawrence of Massachusetts (all desirous of uplifting the colored race), in the mutilation of the Fifteenth Amendment and the maintenance of his faith, hope and courage of his father, who being forty years ahead of the people in the denunciation of slavery, said to the mob, "I will be heard, since I am of the slaves shows that he was heard. The white people of Louisiana have another serious but sweet Negro problem on their hands, and this is the way, according to the Associate Press Report, "NEW ORLEANS, April 22—Announcement was made to night that nine Negro inmates of the parish jail will be used by the U.S. board of corrections to determine whether sugar losses as it has been manufactured in Louisiana for heavy years is injurious to human health. Sulphuric acid is used in the Louisiana process, and the use of this acid will be used to determine the interpretation of the pure food law. The experiment consists in feeding the Negro plants of molasses and making blood tests. President Irion of the State Department said that harm could come to the Negros and that the Washington authorities are not participating in the experiment." The whole country will watch for results. "The blackness is intended to be a bit back at 'Uncle Tom's Cabin,' and which endeavors to portray events which belong to the days of Reconstruction, is still getting it in the neck of his mouth. The plague, who severely criticize it and prohibit its production from their theaters because it has a tendency to increase racial hatred and keep busy the bloody mob. Such plagues and mischievous light to make them look bad will not deter an agitator rattle loudly in his body." In The New Orleans Times-Democrat of April 20, 1907, Dr. Cyrus Townsend Bradley, a noted Southern author of several denning "The Clansman" had no intention of approving that which it portrays or condemns. In no way, shape or form do I approve of the oppressive measures of a reconstructive period. The point at issue is neither a suppression of history nor the horrors and miseries of reconstruction. While Mississippi, possibly, raises the most cotton, Louisiana leads all the States in sugar cane and sugar making. Thousands of Negroes work the great sugar plantations, grown down, carried to the mills and crushed between the giant rollers until the sweet juice is squeezed out. This juice is then boiled until it forms into solid sugar. In regards to the cotton, the plantations were carried into oil as clear and pure as olive oil. It is made into hard cakes, ground with cotton seed meal and used both as a fertilizer and feed for cattle. The plantations were moved to the African-American in the Black Belt of the South and as the land is divided up into great plantations and put by the white owners under the superintendency of white agents who in slavery had to work hard to have something to say on these matters in a future article. BIEHOR J. W. SMITH. WHY CAPTAIN ORGANO WAS IMPRONED IN EAST AFRICA Hard Times in Great Britain and Growth of Socialist Doctrine. LONDON, April 10th.—The snow and ice of winter have passed away in England, and the cold East winds of spring have taken their place. In England that Englishmen—the proud men—have been glad to take on jobs at Hamburg where the Germans were on strike. Parliament has reassembled, and enthusiasts in East Africa thought to wish in the city with blood. The affair, which is causing many Negro bathers to write letters to newspapers, happened thus: A Captain Grogan whipped, what he calls, his rickey and his evil ladies. It is thought, though, that the Captain did the whipping in the hope that the Kikuyu tribe of 50,000 spears (and many acres of land) would revolt and give him a chance to become not only a Government, though, objected this time to a Negro blood baptism and had the Captain imprisoned. But some Englishmen are trying to get the Captain rejoice for having imprisoned an Englishman for whipping Negroes. The Labor, or Socialist, party added by such preachers as the Rev. R. J Campbell of the City Temple, London, and the Country, would never be Christian without Socialism. Therefore there is no "Christian World"; but there may be a "dementies mundus christians" as the leader of the Labor party, and the leader of the Labor party would recount in a speech at Liverpool, "There is no hope for England outside of Socialism. The nations of the earth are being ground under the host of oppression, and until they are freed from the country they belong to, and the industrial capital they manipulate, they are bound to the sort of a class, "The Thaw case has been much talked and rattled in the country. The Time says: "The Thaw trial is a public灾害." The "Indy Trial" reads: "There is no question of stainless knights and angel children in those who favour the Labour party. And Thaw been a Negro his millions would not have kept him from the "chair" or being lynched. Until the Anglo-Saxon became a Socialist nation, there will be a law for the rich, the poor, and a special law for the Negro. I thank Mr. Fortune for his ideas concerning "the redemption of Africa." A SATRICAL DRAMA IS "THE FPIFNDS OF LABOR" Has No Woman Parts and No Love, But Political All. Julius Houp's four-part satirical drama, "The Friends of Labor," which deals with political corruption in America and its effect upon the labor movement, has been adapted to the Kahn Knickerbocker building, and the first presentation in English will take place on Tuesday, May 21, at the Kahn formerly the Windmill theater, on the campus of the entire work and arrangements have been made to send it on the earth. Julius Houp is the founder of the Progressive Stages society, under whose auspices the entire work and arrangements have been given during the last three years. In "The Friends of Labor" Houp presents the Socialistic view of present political conditions in America and the hardships of the dramas in the fact that they are the parts and no love story. The characters are all drawn from life. Politicians, the bosses of political parties, labor leaders, Socialists, Democrats Republicans, etc. are all drawn from the fact that the meeting of capitalists and labor leaders arbitrate grievances of the street car workers; the second act is a meeting of the Central Labor union; the third act is a meeting of the National Labor union; the fourth act is a strike and riot after election. OHIO SITUATION AGGRAVATED. To Boss Southern Republlican Situation THE HANDO OF PRITCHARD Program to Get a Lillywhite Delegation for the National Convention Apparent. From The New York Times. WASHINGTON, April 26.—It has become clear that the Roosevelt Administration recognizes in the South its weak point, politically speaking, and is addressing itself with its usual energy to the capture of that region. Amistant Postmaster General Hitchcock's Southern trip has been followed by new developments. The first is that ex-Senator Marion Butler of North Carolina has been chosen as the Administration General for the South. The second is that in at least one Southern State, and presumably employed as in Wadsworth's New York district and in Ohio—namely, the employment of Federal patronage to crush the President's enemies. The State where the Wadsworths are employed, where the Evans faction has been recognized as the Administration organization, and the Brownlow men are being put out of office as fast as possible, because of the fact that reason that Wadsworth is in New York and Foraker and Dick are in Ohio—that is, he is supposed to be in the plan to nominate a "reactionary" candidate to the presidency and thus thwart Mr. Roosevelt's policies. Marion Butler was elected to the Senate as a Populist. He was elected, however, by a combination between Republicanism and a different footing from what it was in Kannas and the Populist States of the West. In the Western States of the West, the Republican party in the South it was aimed at the Democratic party, and Republicans were its natural allies. Since Butler left the Senate he has been practiced as a Republican and thoroughly a Housewife. He was the youngest man in the Senate when he served there, and was recorded as a man of brains and political skill that the strongly intertwined Democratic party of North Carolina has given to many persons the idea that he is well equipped to advise the Administration on Southern Carolina, but practices law in Washington. He has never lost touch with his home State, however, that in 1902 when the President was planning to be nominated in 1804, James S. Clarkson of New York was made general manager and delegate-getter in the South. The position which he then held by Clarkson, Whenever a Southern Republican comes to town to discuss the political situation with the President, Secretary Corvellon or Assistant Postmaster General Hitchcock, he is always sent to Butler and instructed to report to him. WHAT IS A DEMOCRAT? WILD CHASE FOR DEFINITION Republicans as Well as Democrats Seem to be in Same Boat. From The New York World, It was in no frivolous spirit that The World raised the question "What is a Democrat?" Under Republican institutions the power down of a great power, which is in power in operation, is no trifling matter. Theoretically the differences in the Republican party are quite as great as the differences in the Democratic party. The gap between Senator Aldrich and Senator M. Follett is as wide as the gap between Senator Ted Cruz and Senator Bryan and Mr. La Follett are closer together on all economic questions than are the two long Republican Senators from Rhode Island and Wisconsin, but these Republican differences do not affect the solidarity of the organization and do not influence the immediate future of the party. The new Republican National Convention will be dominated by Theodore Roosevelt. He will either be nominated himself, or he will name his successor, with his own renomination. He will be supported by both conservative and radical Republicans, the republican Republicans because they are in sympathy with his corporation policies as far as they go and the Republican because they cannot help themselves. But the Democratic situation is vastly different. There is no solidarity of or organization. There is no candidate in sight whose nomination would effect even a temporary tie between discounted candidates, or a diplomatic apparently on which all Democrats would nominally unite even for a single campaign. The World must agree with that aggressive and uncompromising political Thomas E. Wattson, that it is "prior to a plight in an area so profoundly momentous." But what is to be done about it? The immediate hopelessness of the situation cannot better be described than in the next forthcoming election. The way out for the Democratic party or better, the way in is for the really Democratic people of the States to send really Democratic delegates to the next National Convention of their party, charged to make a truly Jeffersonian application to present political conditions. This is highly entertaining, like a dog chasing its tail, but it gets nowhere. Who are the real democratic people? What would be the real democratic people? What would be a truly Jeffersonian declaration of principles applying to present political conditions? If the Democratic party could slough off the Western populace, it would be the Eastern populace elements, as it is sloughing off its Debt-Henry socialistic elements, it might be less difficult to recognize $ \mathcal{E} $ the real democratic people. But parties have to be as they are and not as they might be. The World for one does not believe with Mr. Heart and his socialist followers that the Democratic party has put no effort no longer an excuse for visiting. That they are more serious to day as it ever was unless we are prepared to say that the individual should exist for the government rather than the government of the individual. We should not organize a democratic party into a coherent, militant organization as a work of paramount importance in American politics. But before such rehabilitation can take place, we must generally accept an offer to The World's question: "What is a Democrat?"

Taylor, the intercollegiate quarter mile record holder and the mainstay of the University of Pennsylvania, one and two-mile relay teams, was unable to compete for strained a tandem in his leg on Wednesday while he was sprinting with two of his team-mates. Trainer Murray who was in another part of the field, knew nothing of the accident, as Taylor continued when Taylor started to do any easy 600-meter sprint. He had hardly started when Mike Murray noticed that something was wrong with the champion and called for him to stop. On examination it turned out that a tandem in his right had been strained, and Mike ordered the rest.

DEMOCRATIC CONGRESS MEN AND LEADERS INTERMEDDLING Interference in Southern States Has Brought Dismaster to Party Effort. From The Southern American. Intermédiailing of Democratic Congressmen in the South in the Republican policies of the South, to the extent that even Republican administrations at Washington give heed to this Democratic interference in the South, to the extent that the South wrought no little wreck and disaster to the Republican party effort and Republican party leadership in the Southern States. There is no other one thing that has done much to dishearten, to disorganize, to disrupt and to debauch the Republican South than this getting in of their hands in Washington by Democratic leaders from the South in Republican leadership, to disrupt and to debauch the political to the Republican leadership and the Republican effort in the South. The fighting zeal has been taken out of many a zealous Southern Republican because the ambitions of Southern Republicans in the South of Democratic antagonism at the White House and in the Departments in Washington. These are cold facts, they are unawareness facts, and The Southern American knows that the Republican Nation shall have an understanding of them. "The shame of it all is that Bourbon Democrats from the South have been called upon to advise a Republican administration at Washington on matters of Republican policy in the South. The shame of it all is that Bourbon Democrats are done, from the Washington end, to bring into prominence or to encourage promotion to important position, any Southern Republican. In the while of all this, there is an acquiescence to this condition that has followed from either a Southern Republican or a spirit of cowardice in submitting to this state of things without protesting against it. To any extent, at whatever cost. The Southern American proposes to stand for Southern Republicanism and for Southwesternians as against this present situation.
