Delegates Should Be Elected and Transportation Bespoken in Plenty of Time. It was decided at the annual session of the National Negro Business League held in Atlanta, Ga., in August, 1908, to hold the eighth annual session in the hosting city of Topeka, Kan., on Wednesday, Thursday and Friday, August 14, 15, and 10, 1907. The National Negro Business League of Topeka, in active co-operation with Mr. Ira O. Guy, first vice-president of the National organization, is already at work planning its arrangements for the entertainment of those who will attend. The fate of the representatives in the state Capitol building has been secured for the sessions of the League. Governor E. W. Hoch, the Topeka Commercial Club, and the leading citizens of the city and State, who joined in the invitation asking that the coming session of the League be held further and region where great opportunities are opening to our people and where constructive agencies should be set in motion to the end that our people may avail themselves of every means of rooting themselves in the business opening. We are assured of a rate of one and one-third fare plus 25 cents from all parts of the country for the meeting. Local Negro Business Leagues are urged to elect delegates as early as an opportunity and to the corresponding secretary of the range of such delegates. It is especially urged that arrangements be completed as early as conveniently possible, and coach accommodations to Tupeka. Privacy and comfort will be secured if delegations are organised in each of the four Tupeka campuses. A way as to have Pullman service provided for them to and from Tupeka. Mr. C. F. Adams, transportation agent, 8510 Tupeka Road, Tupeka, MN 55075. He is pleased to co-operate in any way possible in making such arrangements. Where local leagues do not at present exist, their formation is urged. A well-organized and wide-scaled local league, be of the same size as the town city in which it is organised. Some of the things that are powable for it to do, aside from stimulating business enterprises, are the following: the young men and women who are intelligent, trained, and qualified to fill responsible places as clerks, accountants, salesmen, janitors, powerers, etc. A league can do much good in setting suitable occupations for as many as possible, especially in the Northern States. 2. In protecting the community against fraudulent schemes, such as false stock companies, that are gotten up solely for the purpose of defrauding the business owner, fostering interest in civic affairs, such as sanitation, clean yards, cultivating pride in making attractive in appearance the home districts of our people, and in other ways showing an interest in community life. There are certain live subjects for discussion which affect in every way the moral and civic growth of our people throughout the whole country wherever our people are in large bodies, will prove of incalculable service in moving forward our progress. Such subjects are to unify the colored people in the business interests of the community. 2. What the professional men, ministers, teachers, doctors, lawyers, etc. can do to make businessmen can do to assist professional men. 4. Patronizing Negro business enterprises. 5. What new businesses can be established in the community. 6. What businessmen can do to assist established be improved? 7. How to secure additional country trade. 8. If a bank does not exist, can one be established and supported? 9. If not exist, can one be established and supported. 10. If a shoe store or gents' furnishing store does not exist, can one be established and supported? 11. If a drug store does not exist, can one be established and supported? The National Negro Business League stands for the elevation of the Negro people in business and commercial directions, but recognizes fully the necessity for work also in other directions; such work, for instance, as being done in the numerous religious and secular organizations. During the brief period of its existence the league has given the race new hope and new light and added faith. It has stimulated the entire race in business directions. Largely through its influence nearly 200 local Business Leagues have been organized, businessmen have been organized, merchandising, banking, real estate dealing, manufacturing, connecting, and others have been started. There are now about thirty-one banks in the United States owned and conducted by Negroes. Twelve of them are in the state of Mississippi in the Gulf coast, two each in Tennessee, Arkansas and Indian Territory, and one each in Alabama, North Carolina and South Carolina. We must strive for a greater number of the highest expression of business development. The officers are ready to co-operate in every way possible with those interested in expanding their business and be pleased to forward a little booklet, "Hints and Helps for Local Negro Business League," whenever requested. Booker T. Washburn, chairman Executive Committee; Emmett J. Scott, corresponding secretary. Speaking of the league and its work The Outlook of New York says Concise instances of individual education often throw more light upon the avenues of human progress than at other times. In New York, America are moving upward in civilization; not is sometimes discussed with regard to the birth-rate, the amount of education, the proportion of illiterate population, and the like. THE NEW YORK AGE. pronches the subject of Negro advancement from another point of view. It excludes men and women who have succeeded materially in some occupation, to bring before the race at large the narrative of their experience and stimulate others by their examples. "Agitation against wrongs and injustice and for better conditions it leaves to closely to the record of progress that has been made in spite of obstacles and under existing conditions. It has therefore, within itself the power which is creatively used in meetings never take the form of combative discussion, but rather of instructive suggestion. In the years in which the committee is working in a single parliamentary wringle. It is not to be inferred, however, that all the speakers assumed that every problem connected with the material advancement of the other, American was solved. "Happily, the way out which Dr. Washington indicates is comparatively unstructured. Fertile land in the South is waiting cultivation. Opposition is not directed against Negro landowners in a man who wishes to buy a farm can have his wish gratified. If he has the money to buy it with; and if he has not the money, he can borrow it on terms, which other men enjoy. No one objects to purchasing the products of Negro agricultural man who wishes to buy a farm which stands, as it were, imploring Negroes to use it. The story of one Negro farmer in Arkansas, which was unfortunately cut short by lack of time, is the sort of story that could be told of any other colored man who would use the land to grow crops. This farmer has several thousand acres. He told with some detail as to figures the exact profits which he had from his land, and estimated out of his own experience how a man with industry could, by borrowing money own his land, buy the land. This gospel of agricultural success ought to be preached to Negroes throughout the whole South. Together with this gospel, however, needs to be announced also the warning that a day of judgment is at hand. If the land is there how so cheap will the price and become less easily obtainable. If the Negroes fail to possess it, Italianes, Hungarians, and other aliens may occupy it. Those who are conceived for future of the Negro race this country ought to be colored people immediate action in getting possession of adequate farm land. "The men who compose the National Negro Business League are undoubtedly exceptional, as all really successful people are. The great service that the league can render down not lie in the exaltation of any particular class of Negroes, but in the power of the Negroes the way toward attaining the same kind of success that their fellows have won. The words which are spoken at the meetings of the league reach comparatively few of the nine or ten millions of colored people in the United States, but they will bring real prosperity to the Negroes. Their three words will carry the message to the regions where they dwell and reiterate it there." FORAKERN PROMPT DEFIANCE. Won't Be Bound by Declaration of Ohio State Officer's Right Tact "To be specific, I emphatically present his dictation and give him notice that my choice for the Presidency will be named by the next Ohio Republican convention, and that I will be the officer, and that so far as I am personally concerned I shall abide the action of that convention as to whether I shall be a candidate again for any office, and if so what that office shall be." Senator Foraker's attitude means that he will oppose the selection of Taft to delegate to the State convention should disfear for Taft and elect and instruct four delegates at large for Taft. LUKE E. WRIGHT RESIGNS. The Tennessee Democrat Tires of Japan new Job. WASHINGTON, May 15. Lake E. Wright of Tennessee, Ambassador to Japan, has tendered his resignation to the President, to become effective on September 1. It is probable, however, that Mr. Wright's return before that time and continue on leave until his successor qualifies. Although no announcement as to Mr. Wright's future is made, it is said that his retirement is entirely voluntary and for personal reasons. Although it was generally understood that he will be appointed as Ambassador to Japan was made in recognition of his valuable services as a member of the Philippine Commission and later as Governor. His successor as Ambassador will be Thomas J. O'Brien of Michigan, now United States Minister to Denmark. No decision has been made regarding Mr. O'Brien's AN AFRO-AMERICAN JOURNAL OF NEWS AND OPINION NEW YORK, THURSDAY, MAY 23, 1907 A NOTABLE CONFERENCE INFORMATIVE representatives. PHILADELPHIA, MAY 21.—Last week there met in Philadelphia a gathering of gentlemen and ladies as important in purpose and as unique in personnel as it was small in numbers. About thirty invitations were sent out to persons skilled in social investigations and statistical interpretation, to meet at the Eighth Ward Social Settlement House. 22 Locust street, over which M. R. R. Wright, Jr., is the directing influence, requesting that an evening might be given to a candid and informal discussion of the main American problem, under the subject, "The Point of View of the Negro Problem." There is nothing remarkable in the meeting of a body of intelligent citizens to talk over such a subject, I grant; but participants and the manner of discussion remain unusual and I may say, remarkably helpful. First, I noted the presence of Prof. Carl Kelsey, Professor of Sociology in the University of Pennsylvania, an author and investigator of vigor and originality. He has been a long-time graduate men, very near in authority to Prof. Samuel McQuine Lindsey, late Commissioner of Education for Porto Rios, and of Sociology in the University of Pennsylvania, a work, "The Negro Farmer," after a visit to the Southern field, that is in excellent spirit and earnest scientific vision; and the home of the良工 Workers' Club, the School of Philanthropy (New York and Philadelphia) and to make the catholicity complete, is from the State of Iowa. Following him, were the persons below mentioned Prof. Surface, Professor of Political Economy in a Virginia university, an investigator for the Carnegie Institution, and just now resident in Philadelphia, where he is the Chairman of the School of Finances of the University of Pennsylvania, where he holds the chair of Economic Geography. Mr. Smith is a Virginian. Mr. Mangold is Professor of Statistics in the University of Pennsylvania, and was a fellow student with Prof. R. R. Wright, Jr. his host on this occasion, at the Chicago University. He is an Lawman. Mr. T. Emile is an active social settlement worked in Germantown, and is a descendant of one of the old Quaker families that came over with William Born, a wasabi grandfather who gave him the Quaker Institute for Colored Youth, at Cheyenne Park. Perhaps the most interesting figure in this excursion group is Mr. Alfred Hone Stone, a large plantation owner in the state of Arkansas, who is the magnitude of whose farming operations can be grained when I state that he employs ninety-four Negro families on his land. He also has farms in Arkansas. I am told. He is a most engaging perennial in the South, a fine common opinion associates with his kind. I saw nothing of the provincial narrowness that we expect from the native Southern, especially when that Southern is from Mississippi, and that Mississippi, he was broad, cool, remarkably well-informed and capable of valuable deductions. Perhaps I give a tester idea of his thought place among such persons as were assembled, by stating that he is a man of great intelligence and a valuable contributor of sociological matter to some of our best magazines. Completing and informing this group, were two ladies who held their seats, not by courtesy, but by right of high service in the Army. Miss Cornelia Hancock, one of the first teachers to go South after the war for the purpose of teaching Negro children. She went to be a senior member of the Charleston under the auspices of the Pennsylvania Mution Society. The school she established still continues. Miss Frances R. Hartlethorn, a sweet-faced Quinkeys of Connecticut, who went to work in Philadelphia and is unconscious of color differences in estimating the value of men, except to deny the previous American hero; that "will come to us well known to the readers of Tuk". The next group, most of whom will be well known to the readers of Tuk Ago to need any req or color designation, consisted of Bibhna Benjamin T. Tauzer, Levl J. Coppin, Editor H. T. Johnson, C. F. Ferry, James Samuel Strommone, H. T. Koullag, J. E. McGill, Bren, B. W. Watson, B. W. Pirkand, B. R. W. Gee, H. White, Prof. R. R. Wright, Jr., H. C. of her sex in brown, the counsellor, guest and unaccompanied champagne, N. N. P. Moeckl. Here we have all the elements and most of the points of view. the points or viewpoint from the white group, as the discussion proceeded, were that race prejudice was universal and necessary; that it was the incentive or provocation to a rivalry that advanced civilization. The colored group replied that it could not be either a good thing or necessary, but a contrary religion, and was the mother of all that will civilization from slavery to lynchship; that it was not natural, because it only grew by teaching. The white group asserted that social equality was not desirable and that the best colored people did not want it. The black group wanted social freedom and certainly did not stand for a social inequality that always put white at the top and black at the bottom; that such matters were not proper subjects for regulation anyway. The white group wanted social equality was opposed to amalgamation and intermarriage. The colored group pointed to itself as a sufficient refutation of the white man's claim that the misinformation lays of the South were the greatest promoters of amalgamation by removing from the aggreing party the proper penalty for his sin. The white group then took up the economic and social problems of the Negro laborer, both North and South, was industrially inefficient and unreliable; though admitting an emerging class which was rising to economic independence. The colored group added the restriction of the South to the North and fraudulent and brutal methods in the South as both the main cause and explanation of this condition. Mr. Wright then suggested that the black group should state the points of agreement between the two groups as representatives of the two races. The summary of views upon this point was: 1. That there is a growing element in the South standing for justice to cooperation with and protection of all its citizenship, regardless of color. 2. That this better element is not in practical control of the South, as the spokesman of the Negro laborer, Vardaman, Dixon and Dath proves. 3. That the Negro must not only have protection, but participation in politics, as well as in business and society. 4. That the full unambled must be admitted, according to standards, and steps taken to protect it. 5. That universal education, higher, professional and industrial, according to the law, must be accorded and encouraged for the Negro as well as the white man. The meeting close with a mutual and intimate respect on the part of the groups each for which the Negro had been learned from each side, with an infinite supply of ignorance still to be disposed of by some future renewal of the conference. OPPOSED TO IMMIGRATION. Georgia Farmers Protest Against Movement to Import Labor—Wow! ATLANTA, May 15. The Farmers' Union of Georgia, with a membership of 5000, today went on record as being demanding foreign immigrants into the South. At a largely attended convention a resolution was unanimously adopted denying the immigration movement and asking the Legislature to make no approvals. The Union opposes immigration on the ground that undesirable citizens will be brought into the State; that they will crowd the native Georgians out of the city; that they will and that the admission of so many will increase the production of cotton and lower the price. All the speakers paid tribute to the Negro as a laborer, and stated that the was infinitely preferable to foreigners as it was proposed to bring South. NEW BRYAN ORGANIZATION Progressive League to Rush Out the Democratic Latency The Bryan boom which has for its purpose the nomination of the Portraits One for the third time for President in 1806 another boost yesterday when the New York City mayor, James K. Bryan, engaged in the Astor House. About fifty men were present, most of whom were old time followers of Bryan and conspirators for their continuous devotion to the obsession of the obskuran but there were others there who also seen so frequently in Bryan gatherings. When the tentative constitution came for adoption Col. Alexander S. Tropp of Connecticut said that it was modelled on the larger organization in New England and that its object was purely educational. "We do not intend in any way to interfere in the work of the regular State committee," said he. "What we want to do is to make the real work of theocratic principles long before the actual work of the real campaign begins so that Democrats may be on their guard against the distortion of the principles by their Republican opponents. The work will be done by the press, literature and the press." ELECTED DEMOCRATE Protest Against Household Action in the Bronxville Case Bartimore May 5 The Negroes of Baltimore are responsible for the election of the Democratic ticket, and Brownwyns made the case of it. The statement is made in the speech of the vote, but did not vote but those who did go to the vote were Republicans, and they voted to a Democrat as a protest against President Reagan's action in the Brownwyns. Now the question arises whether the Negro vote all over the country will be affected as it has in Baltimore. If it should be, the calculations of Taft Republicans in Ohio may have to be revised, as a colored vote in that State of 5000. (Quarto-Genesial Seminario). Lone College, Jackson, Tennessee, will hold its twentieth anniversary exercises on Friday, June 15, 2014, at James A. Bray is president. The annual commencement exercises will be held in the college chapel. Thursday morning at Lone College, Annual address by Rev. W. Justin W. Washburn. WASHINGTON, May 20.—Our letter which we sent to THE AGE last week from Pine Bluff, Ark., was concerning the Arkansas Legislature and its inhuman treatment of the Negroes of the State. We have a little more to say about it because, like a mad bulldog, it has and is still biting and shaking them ferociously, painfully, and with a persistent dogged infernalism. If possible, to crush their aspirations, manhood and womanhood. There are a lot of white people in this country with an overweening sense of their importance who feel that they are born to muggle Negroes like dogs and boss and rule them despotically. Museum managers should keep their eyes on all such persons, for the young generation of Negroes now in the wicked treatment that the slaves took and thousands of Negroes to-day are taking. We stated in last week's NEW YORK ACE that the Arkansas Legislature had recently repealed the entire civil rights chapter, which has been a dead-lettle law that has been used to deny the Negroes equal rights or accommodations with the white people in hotels, salons, theaters, railroad and other public places, the *Little Rock* (Ark.) Democrat, and we print the following stuff and answer how we would send sounds of white people are afraid of the Negroes and will be read with disgust if not interest by every sensible Negro: An absolute separation between the white man and the Negro, without equity toward the latter, but marked by a dividing line which cannot be overstopped because of the existing conditions, is the ultimate object of the various legislators who have worked hardest for the Negro. And they would have this separation complete and extending in every condition of life, social as well as in a business way. The bill is prompted, not so much by a desire to down the Negro, but rather to protect the white man from what one of them appropriately called 'the black peril.' "One Senator said: 'I have nothing personally against Negroes. God put them here, and we cannot exterminate them, nor banish them from the land. A normal cause for the repealing of this charter is fear of the ultimate amalgamation of the race; fear that, because of this amalgamation the time may come when a man will no longer be able to a tell a white man from one who is not white. Now his sounds harsh. I admit—it sounds unnaturally, but it is nevertheless, our duty to banish and prohibit that theories, and we may as well call the thing by its name." "In brief the idea is to let the Negro live in a Negro community, have his own enjoyment, his own prosperity, his own business, his own social distinctions, if only, and let him do as well as he is able to, but let him stay away from the gist of his own society." The A. M. E. Zion Philadelphia and Baltimore Conference of eighty ministers and thirty lay delegates, presided over by Bishop G. W. Clinton, L. L. D. convened in its 9th annual session in Washington, the 15th inst. Bishops C. R. Harris, A. Walters, J. S. Caldwell, and J. W. Smith were present, and dD. C. R. Franklin, L. L. Blackwell, and J. L. Coffey, M. M. Morrow, and J. W. H. Chambers, J. H. White, J. R. Dangertfield, and S. C. Harris. Prominent visitors like Drs. R. T. Vernon, register of theत्र try, L. G. Gland, Penn. F. J. Grimke, Walter Brooks, O. J. W. Scott, recently appointed an army chaplain. A. J. G. Cooper, Professors Bruce Evans, L. R. Moore, and others serve especially and particularly for the service of L. R. McGrigory. This conference, which will meet the third Wednesday in June, 1908, has raised for all purposes this year $7,200. Bishop G. W. Clinton delivered a thoughtful and stirring annual address on religious and racial topics. The following are some of the things he said: "The American Republic has had many difficult and perplexing problems to solve. Some of these have been seriously and particularly solved to the benefit of the Re public. There are yet several problems of a more or less far-reaching character which concenct the entire Nation and upon the solution of which depend not only the wall being of a large part of our territory but also the best institutions, but also the ability and perpetuity of our present form of government. Among them, the following are of special concern to us: (1) The race problem, (2) the liquor traffic, (3) the education of the masses and (4) labor question. Among the category of discernance placed demimal, without bounds of the regiments located at Brownville, Texas. "Of all the problems with which the Nation has had to deal, the one which seems to be the most perplexing and out which has grown the most bitter conflict between the foremost place and has continued longer before the public. The continued agitation of the race question by politicians, office seekers, influential writers and sentiment-making lecturers, the passions of humiliate and hamper the Negro population of our Southern States without regard to the principles of justice or fairness and without respect to the earnest measure up to all the requirements of qualified and honorable citizenship, and the spirit of race prejudice in every section of our country are matters which do not further propitious open to those who are willing for a chance for the better. Such outbreaks as the Atlanta, Springfield, O. Springfield, Mo., and plots on a smaller scale in other places, are among the occurrences which come unbidden to our memories, as we consider the race question. "The newspapers, magazines and published literature of the race in book and newspaper farms coupled with strong arrests and public publications, the increasing fairness of the white press when dealing with the race question, and the courageous and outspoken attitude of some prominent race officials, have helped North, are hopeful signs of the times which the race must not allow itself to overlook. While the Atlanta and other roots prominent race officials have the incident have given a stunning blow to many of the most hopeful, we only need to watch the trend of subsequent events and the signs of much that reach well-founded conclusions that those afflictions are destined to work out more exasperating favorable results than could have even been surmised when these startling happenings occurred. While all the race officials have been harsh dismissal of the three Negro battalions stationed at Brownsville without a thorough, patient and fair-minded investigation, was a most important occasion in the race. It is if the best course to pursue to continue the wholesale and unqualified criticism of our Chief Magistrate and to couple with this criticism the charge that he has created from his love and righteous attitude toward and a friendly interest in the race. "It must not be overlooked that our President, though a great, strong and resourceful man of high sins and of evilness, must and must with some of the weaknesses to which all men are more or less heir. Despite the fact that he has done some things, that I would rather he had Negro but matters which concern the Nation. I still believe that he is prompted by motives which he believes to be for the well being and best interest of the nation, and by health and healthy influence against awfulness of whatever character and fair play to the deserving without regard to race or color, and by a fact that he hopes to have a fact for which he deserves the thanks of all leaders of good government. Now that the Brownstein case is in the hands of a competent court, and is being hope for a fair-minded man, I think we would do well to wait until this committee has reported, and see how the President deals with this report, before passing further measures." - Buston J. W. Suturn. Mrs. Washington's Reformatory Work Promoted Good. From The Chattantoga Times no enterprise for the betterment of her people that could engage the activity of the wife of Booker Washington to greater or higher purpose than that she is now promoting industrial reformatories for waryward and virious Negro youth to reflect upon the scoury Negro youth to reflect upon the scoury boys and girls have for getting the right of early training must put every right thinking person in a frame of mind to help in the work Booker Washington and his wife are promoting. The reformatory properly organized and efficiently and faithfully conducted will help the kid and penitentiaries of the future, Booker Washington should therefore meet with the sincerest and most substantial encouragement. A Chicago Manufacturer Who Has Furnished Employment for Many Young Women. CHICAGO, May 21.—Mr. Raymond Robbins, of this city, who with her distinguished husband is prominently interested in social settlement work, has written a strong and stirring appeal to the public in behalf of the working girl. The significant point of her plan is that the wages of these girl workers, who have no homes, should not be less than $12 per week. The girl who receives less than this in constant peril. The girl who is entirely self-supporting and practically homeless, and who takes her place with an army of workers like herself, is the only girl, live, military and respectable quarter and legitimate taste for innocent assessment and recreation cannot get along with less than $12 per week in these big cities. Mrs. Robbina's timely plan has reached the attention and should bring good results. Nothing in the present day efforts for better conditions in the social life of the people is more important than the growing anxiety and tender interest shown in the work of the unemployed and who must support themselves. In Chicago, as in other cities, every possible thing is being done and planned for the saving of homeless girls from despair. Associations, girls' hotels, with all possible comforts and refinements, girls' rest rooms in the business districts of the city, special lunch rooms with many meals, and other facilities vided on every hand to protect young women who work for a living in store, office and factory. All this heart anxiety displayed in so many ways is a fine tribute to the hard work of women who chivalry and woman worship form a large part of every day human life. The true measure of any generation is shown through protection and exaltation of womanhood. To honor womankind is civilization. The serious fact is that our homeless and penniless girls of the big cities must be protected and helped if we would save the race from the scandal that the Negro is indifferent to the fate of its women. A race of men and women capable of building up and protecting its own social life must awake to a consciousness of their responsibility. Save our young women and everything else will be saved as a reward, and those who more than else we have will be worth counting to our credit. There are now a lot of some hopeful things that send a gleam of hope through the shadows of our misfortunes. It will never do to come to the doleful conclusion that the time has come to come. It is no longer a moment of dishonest and unkind. In the love and confidence of mankind, Simee weeks ago a young colored man of this city appealed to a paper box manufacturer to give employment to the idle young women of his race. I unexpectedly the manufacturer of the paper box, I expected to give employment to the would be glad to give employment to as many competent girls as would apply and gladly gave the assurance that he would treat them in the same way and pay them the same wages that white girls received. He even went further and that he would be able to get a job, especially if they could. They could earn all that was possible as clerks, bookkeepers, operators and forewomens. The work is clean, healthful, somewhat artistic, and such as no young woman, however ladylike in her tastes and notions, must be ashamed of. It is not a man who is not a man who puts to work at one other, and their work was proven very satisfactory to their manager. The only complaint is that we have not been able to supply the number of girls needed. There are some young women among us of course who are well-trained, and the fact is that the work of our girls is perhaps asking too much of our girls to be strong against this sort of fear and shobbishness. Our young women do not easily learn that idleness is the thing that blights and puts her beyond the pale of love and sympathy. She may be a fashionable dressed in ill-gotten clothes and even, down the street in her-rowed manner, but do one is deceived thereby. The young man who presumes to worm the girl who is willing to earn her living by any sort of honest work is a pouncing man whose good opinion is not worth the girl of bleam heart and sweet minimus can afford to do anything that her hands find to do and her coworkes approves.

New Brist, N. C., May 21—Every Afro-American laborer receives a compensation for his earning capacity, therefore at the end of each week he should have an account showing a net gain after paying his living expenses. This is the laborer's side of the question—now the Afro-American business men have a duty to perform. They must be hopeful of obtaining their wages, and the banks, shoe stores and other enterprises, in order that the laborers may become hopeful and invest their money in Afro-American enterprises. Then, again, the laborers should be made to see the necessity of saving from each week's earnings, since there is a general division of employment in communities throughout the South, these communities create an absolute demand for banking institutions owned and managed by Afro-American. These institutions must have the latest methods and facilities to successfully prove to the community their ability to manage their affairs. This community is not unlike other sections of the undeveloped South in natural advantages for a successful growth of Afro-American enterprises, because the Mutan oil industry began March 5, 1890, with an authorized capital stock of $10,000, with the privilege of increasing the capital stock to $100,000. This institution was not recognized by the State as an institution in an embryonic state, but the bank had to meet the same requirements as the oldest and richest white banks of the State. It had to drive from the toiler's mind the old ghost—suspicion, and create a new confidence and all of the qualities that make the toiler's mind a valuable asset. That are given employment to his educated daughters and sons. The promoter of this institution were the leading men of affairs in this city—men who by close application to their affairs were able to inspire confidence by their homely to protect the depositors and stockholders. The management is judicious, mastering every detail of the business and accepting every opportunity to reach the laborers in the fields, mills, on wharves and wherever they were employed. The security during the breadwinners in this section was not as general as it is today, therefore it was not an easy task to secure the financial support from the class that is the main pillar to commercial movements; yet an unusual awakening of the classes for the substantial advancement of such an indispensable institution had its effect. Its business was placed upon VIRGINIA INDUSTRIAL INSTILUTE HOLD ANNIVERSARY EXERCISES 24th Year of School Celebrated by Interesting Program—Many Graduates. PRESENTATION. Va. May 21.

Rev. Dr. C. T. Walker of Augusta, Ga., the founder of the branch, and for three years its chairman, will be leading the organization's university address. The others are aiming to make the occasion one of the most notable in the history of the organization. The feature of the meeting at the branch last Sunday afternoon was altogether new and startling. Mr. Dildoow Twee, of Liberia, and now a student in a Commercial College in Cambridge, Mass., conducted a collegial exercise and sustained himself adamantly under the men's organization that were asked Mr. Twee are the following. "To what extent has Christianity advanced in Liberia within the past ten years?" Does Liberia maintain any diplomatic relations with any foreign power? If so, with what government What are the social relations between the Americo-Liberian and the natives? Does the population show any tendency among the natives to think the solution of the race problem will be brought about on the migration of the Western Negroes in Africa?" Mr. Twe has very positive convictions about West Africa. He claims that the methods and standards formerly maintained by the American Negroes in Liberia were largely responsible for the slow progress that Liberia has made. The country, said Mr. Twe, has been priested Nearly everybody who assisted to the mining was a preacher in the church, and legislated largely for themselves and their friends without any regard for the welfare of the natives. Mr. Twe also criticized the class of representatives that the American government has sent to Liberia as ministers. Every one says he has been a preacher who had little or no knowledge of statuescraft. Instead of sending such men as Dr. DuBois and Kelby Miller, the government has invariably sent preachers who in many instances have been more zealous to promote the cause of their demons.

General Kuroki and the other Japanese visitors in the United States have been having a royal time. We are glad of it. They deserve it, because they have shown in war and in peace that they are men every inch. And this reminds us that when the writer was in Japan a very intelligent native cynically observed that the white race was a queer lot, as they worship the war god and pay little attention to the high development of other people in the arts of peace. Before the Japanese showed their valor and high mastery of the art of war in the fight with China and then with Russia, the white races took small account of them, but since those historic events there is nothing too good for the Japanese. And this is the way of the savage in all lands, which proves that civilization has failed to eradicate the source in redeem, the race from the savage in him. Will it ever do so? The vast armies and navies of the world lead to no such conclusion. Cowper has well said, "War is a game which, were their subjects wise, kings would not play at." But mankind are not wise. They are still essentially savage. Confusion in Party Alignment. The line of cleavage between Republican and Democratic opinion in the State of Maryland, as far as Afro-Americans are concerned, is so indictant as not to be readily perceptible to the naked eye. In Baltimore last week the Democrats were successful in regaining control of the city government, and it is said that the result was due in large part to the action of Afro-American voters, who are disatisfied with the conduct of the leaders of the Republican party. We are not surprised that they should be disatisfied, but we are surprised that they bolted the party and sought to teach it the only sort of lesson that it can understand. Afro-Americans do not usually act in that way, as past party loyalty and race disaster in politics too painfully proves. Here in New York it has been during the past thirty years impossible to get Afro-Americans in considerable numbers to act wisely and for their own interests in politics. They have stuck to the party label long after the goods it marked had been changed in every respect. But if in Chicago and Baltimore Afro-Americans can resent party bad faith it may show that we are entering upon a wiser and healthier condition of affairs. Long Spring and Short Crops. LONG SPRING AND SHORT CROPS. There is a cry all along the line that the wheat crop will be short this year all over the world, at the same time the backwardness of spring, in the lap of which winter lingered long, it is feared, will make a shortage in all of the other crops upon which mankind depends. In this latitude the small farmer, who should have begun planting away back in April, has hardly been able to do so in the last half of May. What short crops mean to the world at large may be inferred from the fearful famines which now prevail in Russia and China, and which in other years have prevailed in Ireland and East India, as a result of drought and short crops. In this country we are not familiar with famines as they have them in Europe and Asia, so far we have escaped that worst form of calamity, mainly because our country is comparatively new, its resources vast and diversified and its people reasonably intelligent and industrious, making hay while the sun shines and holding on to some of it against the rainy day. But we are fast ceasing to be a new people, in the common acceptance, our population is becoming dens, our occupied lands are growing less in age. There are more months to food and as these months multiply by natural increase and by our vast volume of immigration it will be increasingly hard to till them. Indeed, the cost of living now is far beyond what it should be considering the enormous production of food stuffs, the increase being due to bad tariff laws which have created and fostered monopolies in food stuffs, as in other commodities, to the advance in land values, to the variety of farm labor and to the abnormal increase of city population; which produces none of the food stuffs it must have, but is a large consumer of such. The hard conditions of living which prevail in Europe and Asia, due to density of population and to bad governmental conditions, but mainly to the largeness of population as it relates to production, is gradually becoming the same in this country. In a large city, like New York, wages are good when work can be got, but living is high to cut up most of the carnin of wage workers. The unemployed part of the population is always large and ever increasing. The amount of food stuffs necessary to feed a city population of three million people," like New York and its suburbs, would be an interesting problem for the readers of The Age to think over. People live higher, more expensively, in this country than in Europe and Asia, but every year their ability to do so is growing less, especially in the large cities. People who live in the country districts and raise their own food products are much better off in the mere matter of living than those who live in the large cities, but it is difficult to make the ordinary person believe that. There is a constant rush to the cities, and the amount of suffering caused by it is never fully disclosed by the societies maintained to ascertain and relieve it as far as possible. Because the conditions of life are constantly growing harder we have maintained for many years the policy of advising readers of THE AGE to remain in the country districts, when possible to do so, and to purchase and to hold on to farm lands as far as possible, because the life of the farmer is the most independent and healthful and because the acreage of farm lands for sale is constantly growing smaller, while the price of it is steadily advancing in all parts of the country. A shortage in food production is among the greatest of the calamities which can overtake a people. It is hardly possible, from present indications, that this country will experience any such the present year, but that there will be a great shrinkage in production, and consequent greatly increased cost of all such, appears to be possible. Southern Endorsements. It is gratifying to learn that there are enough Republicans in two Congress districts in Alabama to hold conventions, and it is not surprising that both of these conventions endorsed President Roosevelt for a third term. The white Republicans of the South are mostly Federal office-holders, while the blacks do the voting for the most part—except in Virginia, North Carolina, Kentucky and Tennessee, where there are a great many white Republicans. Under the rule of President McKinley and President Roosevelt an effort has been made to build up a Republican party out of Southern white Democrats by giving them the Federal offices, or the disposition of them. In the State of Georgia, it is said, ninety per cent, of the Federal officers are filled by Democrats, while in North Carolina most of them are filled by the clan of Jeter C. Pritchard. In Mississippi the Democrats have most of the Federal offices, or the control of them. It will be a new thing in politics if the Democrats holding and controlling the Federal offices in the South should attempt to hold Republican conventions and elect delegates to the next National Convention of the Republican party. The Afro-American people who have kept alive the spirit of the Republican party in the South have been side-tracked, by the leaders of the party in the Nation, and it is up to them to fight for their political existence in the party. Foreigners in New York: The Russians in New York must be few in numbers, but they are going to have a newspaper of their own. The Germans, French and Indians of New York all have daily newspapers of their own, and the Chinese have several weeklies, one of them, The Chinese Reform News, being located in the same building as T100 Acr. Most of the papers published by the small number of foreigners, in New York have but a small population to draw upon, but they are prosperous because the few support them. The Staats Zeitung is a great news paper, one of the members of public opinion in the broader sense, and under the management of the late Oswald Otto-boer wielded an influence to no New York newspaper. Mr. Herri man Rodder has also been able to keep up the high character of the paper. And these papers are able to be great and influential because those in whose interests they are published support them. "It that were true of a third of the Afro-American people I do. No, would have one of the largest circulations in the United States and be able to give employment to thousands instead of to a few. They succeed in politics and business who stick together. We have yet to earn that lesson. Oklahoma's Hotten Constitution, The Republicans were pitied not immiled in the recent constitutional convention of Oklahoma, and as a consequence the constitution adopted under the enabling act of Congress is one of the most remarkable documents of its land which has been produced in this country. Whenever the Democrats control any thing they usually mold it so that no body wants it. There are persistent remorses from Washington that President Roosevelt may not approve of this constitution, and in that event the State cannot come into the Union until it has another constitutional convention and adopts an acceptable constitution. Singularly enough the Indian, deci- gates in the convention took sides with the white Democrats on all propositions to restrict "the rights, privileges and immunities" of the Afro-Americans of the proposed State. The Indian is a queer animal, anyway. Unless he has a mix-ture of white blood he is mostly an indifferent sort of man, and when mixed-blooded he shows a disposition to turn up his nose at Afro-Americans, who have always been better friends of his than the whites. The white races are united against the darker races, and the latter are divided among themselves everywhere. Why? ROOSEVELT AND FORAKER An Analysis of Census Leading Up to Their Retirement — They Are Temperamentally Allies in Fighting Hard—What the President Owes the Senator. From The New York Times. WASHINGTON. May 17.—There is a personage in Washington who figures in the papers as a man who has been licked. In point of fact, he has been well licked. He is to be finished off, soon to be "put to sleep" for good. By an adoptive dodger he has succeeded in positioning the evil day when the final consummation is to be met out to him. It is a liberal education in English to hear Mr. Roosevelt's policies, character. The Senator now proceeding at the Court who had the experience of a judge in the Senate when ordered the discharge from the colored battalion involved what heights the Sergeant has mounted with a spinner, with two spindles and holy relic characteristic of the pro-hero in those who One of the neatest compliments ever paid an Afro-American by any President was the appointment of Mr. Whitefield McKinlay on the Board to beautify the city of Washington. This is the first time where an Afro-American has been put on such a high commission and in a place where he will constantly come in contact with men of high character and position. The AGt does not fail to disagree with the President when it thinks he does that which is wrong, but when he does something of this character it stands ready to commend him. By the appointment of Mr. McKinlay to this high position of distinction and honor, and Mr. Ralph Tyler to a like position, the President has done much to change the opinion that he is drifting away from the interests of the race. The Hon. George Bruce Cortelyon, at present Secretary of the Federal Treasury, is a very extraordinary American, having reached his present high place in public affairs from the position of stenographer by force of character and ability. A New York newspaper insists that Secretary Cortelyon is a candidate for the Presidency, and that he is opposed to the radical policies of President Roosevelt and to the aspirations to be President of the Hon. William Howard Taft. Mr. Cortelyon is a very secretive citizen. Just what he believes as good Republican policy has not been formulated, we believe, but that he has discharged with marked ability the high positions he has filled, all will have to admit. In every community the race is making unimpressed progress along some lines. We very much desire that the correspondents of THE ACE would tell of the growth of the communities from which they write; tell about the securing of land, the building of homes, the building of school houses, the organizations of churches and other moral agencies, and the growth of business enterprises, and of development generally. Let us hear about this kind of progress. The average correspondent who writes to a newspaper is likely to give opinions. We can manufacture opinions here in the office. What we want is news, and in order to get news one has to get out and hustle for it. The drift toward radicalism in the conflict of government is not only the most marked tendency in the politics of the United States, but of Europe and Asia. In the latter continent there has long been a reaction from the old order in Japan, so that we now have the "new Japan" and in China there is constant protest against the old order. In Russia resolution is steadily progressing. In this country it would be difficult to forecast how far radicalism will proceed it we judge by the tremendous rapidity with which it has advanced in the past ten years, but that great changes in the old order impend thrills the political atmosphere. The Hon. Joseph G. Cannon, the Speaker of the House of Representatives and a Republican of high degree, is not a candidate we believe, for the Republican nomination for the Presidency, but there is a lot of loose talk in his favor and Illimos is behind him. He is an old line Republican, and that sort is no longer available in the radical conditions which have hitched themselves alike upon Republican and Democratic politics. There is always a certain type of white man upon whom it pays to keep an eye, and it is the white man who has lost his influence in his party and with his own race, who attempts to lead the Afro-American. This sort of a man would wield more influence and have more weight if he could first wield some in the presence with his own race. A great many readers of Tire Aot will be surprised to find by an article in Tire Aot, today that Mr. T. McCants Stewart is now in Liberia, West Africa. A few years ago he went to Hawaii and became a power in the life of the territory, but a year ago he left it and went to Liberia. Get ready to attend the Business League meeting in Topika, in August A. AESTE POCKET CONSTELLATION Southern Democratic Methods Tried In Whighouse From The Oklahoma Safety Guard The all-absorbing question now contorting the people of the new State to the Constitution as made by the Democrats. Shall it be adopted or shall it not. The Democrats have completed and approved the Constitution, but they won't turn it a loss so the people can change it at it. Bill Murray, the president of the convention, wants to keep it in his yet pocket, and carry it around for the people to read it. He thinks in this way he will be able to present the convention feature as he may have them pointed out to him as he goes around. This will not deceive Governor Frantz and Secretary of State Ellison. They say their people shall not vote for a Constitution sight unseen. Now who is right Murray or Frantz? That question is a question of United States to see that the rights of the people are protected and not stolen by a set of Democratic politicians. The Democrats have stuffed bait boxes, bulldozed voters, disfranchised Negroes, and dismantled the complete control of the South, and so legislated to their solitary ends that there is no chance to get them out. Now they come West and play that game game. It is time to stop them, and the Republican party must see to it that they are not going to be a Negro stealing a chicken and now here comes Bill Murray trying to steal a whole State in broad daylight. An Analysis of Cause Leading Up to Their Retaliation — They Are Preventorically Allied in Fighting What the President Gives the Scenario. From The New York Times. FROM THE NEW YORK TIMES WASHINGTON. May 17—There is a personage in Washington who figures in the papers as a man who has been licked. In point of fact, he has been; he has been well licked. He is to be finished off soon—to be "put to sleep" for good. By an adopt, dodge he has succeeded in postponing the civil day when the final consummation is to be meted out to him. But that civil day is not far off. The degree has gone forth. Irrevievable deom in on his track. He is to be "eliminated." What, makes this man particularly interesting? What, makes the sentence against him is being executed. In this connection certain historical episodes occur to the memory: There was of old time an Israeli named Samson. He was a mighty man and had slain thousands. At last they got him, put out his eyes, and he did not kill him. Then one day he got his hand on the pillars of the banquet hall where they were all gathered and pulled them down, perishing himself in the midst of so many of his captures that they made a proverb that slain more in his death than in his life. Once again, much later, in profane, very profane, history, there was a man named Conkling. In an hour of elation and prosperity, when there was no opposition, he was the most powerful man, was hard-tempered and domineering, was driven out of his party. The next year his State turned over to the enemy, and two years later the candidacy of the most brilliant and popular man of his time, the marry party from defeat at the hands of an obscure mayor of an unimportant city. Joseph Benson Foraker has neither the long hair of the giant of Gaza nor the pity, petulant point of the former Semenah, but the man of a capacity for trouble-making in which neither of those worthies excelled him, and he has, in the judgment of many, excellent excuse for exhausting that capacity in making forever more politic his own last days in office. Senator Foraker, "dead one" though he is said to be, is interesting furthermore because he is the only surviving former senator in the country, only man who has dared defy the lightings from Jaws' high house across from Lafayette Square. That he, impious, wretch, lives at all; that he breathes and lives in peace; that he is enough to make him a marvel for the devout. With the "elimination" of the senior Senator from Ohio no man will be left in the Republican Party who dares to challenge the political policy or of personal opinion. Not one. Senator Foraker is himself almost august in his isolation, and his last day, when most marks the end of the perverse and the impious. American political history has been full of dramatic surprises, but it would be difficult to find in it a parallel for the course of events which has brought about the rise of the modern world of Theodore Roosevelt and Joseph P. Roaker, and which has created the curious conditions prevailing today in National politics. A master spirit of irony has been working for years to convince the situation. For the politician whom the President is bending every energy to destroy was the original Rossevelt man. If any of the former Forker was entitled to its events did much for Mr. Rossevelt. To a remarkable degree has he been a favorite of the former Forker. Hamlin's control of the Ohio Convention of four years ago and forced that body to demand the nomination of Theodore Rossevelt for President. Forker did not want to be a former president, but instead on the action of that body it depended whether Rossevelt was to go into his history as a bereft termed presidential President, himself which he has so magnificently imputed. That was Forker, not fortune. Without Forker, it is safe to say Rossevelt would not be in the White House, and now Forker is to be "eliminated." Not that any sympathy need be elicited by this prophethion. It is an offending moral exercise to call to mind the fact that many men have been toward many who have befriended and added Mr Rossevelt Washington correspondents of philobolizing disposition have prepared long lists of men who have been toward them on which they served him. But in the case of Senator Foraker the service was carried of that beautiful self-sacrifice, and disinterested variety which is so striking in the nature of his service of the human heart demands should be lovingly rewarded. No Mr Foraker was not actuated by pure friendship for Mr Rossevelt and admiration of his stature. The case was something like Foraker, who had been the popular old of Ohio Republican since 1895, and expected to succeed to the eminence of the party, was appointed the appearance of Mark Hanna as a political boss. He had indeed secured a Senateorship through a bargain with Hanna, made at Zanesville in 1895 on the advice of Senator John McKinley. Hanna hated Foraker to the end of his days, though he tried up to his contract with him. His hatred was intensified when a little girl named Bessie was introduced to be a Senator Under Hanna's influence. President McKinley blacklisted Foraker. It was the fate of the Ohio Senator to count for nothing with an Administration which he had made yes. Then came the tragedy at Ruffalo. With the elevation of Mr. Roswell Senior Foraker thought he saw his chances. He cultivated the new President midshipman, and he became the first lieutenant around the time in these days was held by Aldrich, Spooner and Lodge, all enemies of Foraker, nor were Haun's warnings altogether unregarded. Never before had he shown any friendship for Roswell. He gave the supreme proof of it in 1898 when he sent out to meet Haun and all the secret societies of the President at the Ohio State University, to test his tute and, by the help of Roswell's famous telegram declaring that those who opposed his indisposition there were no friends of his, secured the vote which made inevitable the nomination and election for the term which is now serving. Senator Foraker's friendship for Mr. Rosewell did not long survive the failure of a president to acknowledge it substantially. The simple fact is the two men are by nature enemies. They are much alike. Both are men of strong opinions, imminent threats, and a strong desire to be essentially leaders; both are joyous fighters. The public questions upon which they offer affair an explanation for public disbelief are not really personal and practically instinctive. Senator Foraker is a pretty good hotter under ordinary conditions. His wrath against the President has been tenfold and his hatred to keep it bottled up so long. It is a liberal education in the possibilities of English to hear him characterize Housewives' policies, behavior, and characterization upon the Brownlee hearing now proceeding at the Capitol, and those who had the experience of hearing him in the hearing ordered the discharge from the service of the colored battalion involved may imagine to what heights the Senator's rhetoric has been declared胶员hip. hlp As for Mr. Roosevelt, no man in American public life has ever been able to find for his personal animosities the sanction from on high which strengthens Mr. Roosevelt's lairets with a sort of inspired and holy zeal. It is a curious characteristic of the present President that he sees in those who differ from him not merely mistaken persons, but moral offenders. To disagree with the President is not a sign of folly; it is an evidence of wickedness. To oppose him is to sin against God. Against the sinner, therefore, the hand of punishment must be stretched out, not to correct, but to stay. The eagerness with which the President pursues his enemies would, in any one of less moral earnestness, appear as intolerable vindictiveness. And vet Mr. Roosevelt is not the fighter that Foraker is. The President has been known to yield. Only the other days by the nine gods he swore that he would give these Scholars who loved the Necklace wanted; he would appoint Ralph Teter as vicector at Cincinnati. But he didn't; he appointed Amrit Smith. The Foraker's mug. On the other hand, Fornker has never surrendered. He has been defeated—only in many times—but a white flag is a piece of unrest—he has been刀cut down, own and the old. Sennator has used it. He went into the Civil War as a private, and he liked fighting so well that he has been at it ever since. They made him a captain, and when he came to the top of the�, he had a good edge. He was too peaceful and he was so pleased. They put him up for Governor, and he was whipped. That was in 1883. Holding that we were kafed to fight better. He was a man who had been put in the agot. This time he went to put him back in 1884. About this time President Cleveland fought it would be a nice idea to restore the captured Southern war standards. The States, from which they came. Five years later, he followed the State by shouting, "No relief flag," shall be returned while I am Governor. It was not worthy of a Roosevelt. Nobody came, however, to take the rebel flags away from Captain Fornaker, so, to keep the war from the other side of the States, running for Governor every two years. He was kicked in 1889 so bully that, owning the Legislature and realizing the necessity of capital to a politician, he went into the capital. He stood and the street car lines of Cincinnati and had a bill passed it was repeated the following session, empowering Ohio cities to at an fifty year franchises. He got a meeting in good shape at Cincinnati and the system to the Widened Elkins industry. Here we get a view of a difference between the two men. It is inimpenetrable that Mr. Resewell could ever engage in a transaction like that. He would probably regard it as highly humorous. Mr. Resewell would be conversant with politics, constantly reports to political manoeuvres of which the most sophisticated politicians are a little ashamed. His memory is poor, personally as to his own words. His opinion of religion is slight. Yet he can be confident that all men are a deep and sincere moral purpose. It may take the form of a conviction that he is the country's divinely appointed leader, and that all means are fair to register to the country's good. He is the moral question, and let us on the right side of them. Now, Senator Foraker bears no commission from Hawton to settle the big questions. He is not known to be especially frankly not beyond the point at which he can advance plausible reasons for his party's position upon them. As to political morals, he is rather above the average, and he is not particularly believers in getting all you can while keeping within the law. But Foraker won't be, and won't sell, and won't forget a trivial. He has a constitutional right to be a good friend. He finds it hard not to be candid. By instruct him to "separate" and though elevated sentiments are not on his line, he has a certain manly side that makes him somewhat more certain of the President's own experience. He has the temperament and the experience. He speaks with vigor as great as the President, but with far more confidence. He is a man in four occasions made at National Conventions speaks mammating Presidential candidates, two of them successful ones. He is a big fan of an gathering at the White House on the floor at the stump he has written. On the other hand he has no capacity for organization in Ohio he picked out an organization in Ohio he picked out to make one. Later he had made of Charles Kurtz When Hanna died Dekk succeeded to the super organization which that astute politician had built up Dekk came to the Senate. He was not a politician but rather as a statesman or a politician. He married to Taft a wife, but gave him up. Soon the antagonism of the Administration led him to make common cause with Foraker. What was supposed to be Foraker's role in the war was put into the service of Senator Foraker the President's enemy in one of the most important States of the Union, and what made it more important was that whom the Senate chose to nominate for the succession Secretary Taft. Senator Foraker was prompt to pounce the issue. The word of defence had been spoken in however, when Faraker found himself in a position he had been shattered by the mere prospect of battle. He went out to Ohio and discovered that opposition to Taft was impossible. Foraker had been whipped with the fun of a light dy dependence on a machine, and the moment proved absolutely worthless. It is probable that Foranker understood from the start that the war which was declared would be a fight to the finish. For a week it looked as if the defeated Senator might be spared, but he himself has been under an illusion as to Mr. Roosevelt's money. Two weeks ago George B. Cox admitted the proposal that to be held the discussions in Ohio Republican ranks, the next State Convention be asked to inform Teff for the Presidency. Foraker for a return to the Senate, and Governor Harris for another term at Columbus. The impression was allowed to go forth from Washington that the proposed terms atisfactory. Whereupon Senflor Dick was determined, the Republican State Executive Committee issued a call for a conference to be held on Wednesday last. For it were invited the State and Executive Committee, the court cheirmen, the Republican Congressmen and State officials. It was expected that this conference would act in accordance with the Cox harmony program. But the call for the conference had surely been issued when the friends of Senator Frank were given to understand that the Administration had not consent to an indorsement of the Senate. It wanted Teff indorsed, and it wanted and would have nothing more. The Administration idea of harmony himself and monotonous the marker. He did it. ting the orchestra together to sound a single note and call it harmony. Though he realized how good and pleasant a thing it is for bethren to dwell together in St. Peter's felicitation that he would rather dwell, in lieu than to be the door-mat outside the entrance to a Taft love feast. So he raised his voice and called on his friends to stay away. On Monday Senator Dick rowdowed the call for the conference, and the State Committee, the chairman of the State Committee, joined in calling off the conference. Without Brown's acquiescence the calling off would have been imperative. Brown is understood to be a Taft man. What would he mean? They meant first, that Forker didn't propose to let Taft have an indulgence without getting to one himself, and second, that the Taft managers, after studying the field for twenty-four hours, were sure that they could get a Taft indorsement with that they could get with while with Forker's friends sulking. It is true that Foraker is clearly afraid of a test of strength; he has abandoned all hope of downing Taft by means of the Dick organization. But it is also pretty clear that the Taft outfit is aware that Foraker can make trouble in the shape or form of an Ohio indomption for Taft has yet been obtained. The postponement of the conference postponed the "show-down" at which Foraker will be forced out of the game, wiped off the map, and so forth, but it also postponed the bestowal upon Taft of the opportunity to rise in indomption upon which all his plans would A week ago the Taft outlook was unclouded: only golden, roses hite of summer dawn were in the air. Himself a forceful, trusted, and admired figure; with no bleach upon him, and with an indomitable spirit, he was one of the Presidency; with Mr. Rosenvelt his campaign manager and no opposition in sight, he only waited the final endorsement of the Buckeye State of his favorite son to begin his progress to the office. When he with that indomitable force, which Wow, had been set, still ungrenued and wan likelihood that it will soon be made something of a chill steals on the air. The "misapprehension" as to Ohio's wishes is still unallayed, and other canaries are grinding their loins. Mr. Taft's eventual rejection of Vorya as a Republican with such a name must be a man of much force of character), said the other guy: "All over the country the Taft sentiment is strong, but the prospect of his success has has been somewhat clouded by a notion that he could not get the solid vote of Ohio. Representative Theodore Burton, another leading Administration man, who had been booked for Former's wait, said, the number of the handicap created by the law is a part of the people, or a small fraction, against a man in his own neighborhood. Franker is only waiting for the date of his funeral to be announced, and Dick's finish is in sight—but meanwhile the president's plan for Taft is making no more progress, and but things do happen, even against the best-buddah plan of Presidents who desire to name their successors. It is certainly unfortunate for Mr. Taft that his candidacy be burdened with the Presidential succession. In a reason why the Secretary of War should not accept indemnity at the hands of a conference which at the same time commended Senator Forker. It was Mr. Roosevelt's unforgiving unity for Forrest's succession, the formal launch of Ohio's favorite on Wednesday under the happy anxies. That opportunity came, the scene in Ohio for the next twelve months will be one of war. "Ritimuation" is bloody business. Senator Parker has never been used to it, but he is going to take it hard. Without presuming to question for a moment the result deposed by the Administration, it may be allowable to inspect the field for a moment and ask what the situation is in a Republican party in Ohio when the situation is in. The Ohio State Senate consists of 18 Republicans, 18 Democrats, and 1 Independent who usually vote with the Democrats. The House of Representatives consists of 22 Republicans, 57 Democrats, and 1 Independent. In other words, the Republicans have 80 votes and the Democrats, 75 with 3 Independents who are likely to go to the Democrats. In other words, the present Republican majority on point ballot is 2 votes. But it is not the present Legislature which will elect the next Senator. That will be done by legislators chosen at the state level. Now, five of the present Republican members of less than 100. One had a margin of 3 votes, those of his three sons. And he not only also voted for himself, his opponents would have been elected. Another member voted for 1 vote; still another by 2 members. The Senator was chosen by a plurality of 50. Politics That Are Personal What kind of politics is it for a National Administration to allow the risk of party war in a State as close as that? What is the risk of party war in a State as close as that? How to secure for Mr. Taft in the National councils of his party, that, so far from being a man who can guarantee his State to the Republican column, his candidacy is part of a war of elimination which is easier to divide and must inevitably entail a war of victory in that State? This is surely what the elimination of Foraker means. What then is Senator Foraker's of those? What evil courses have thus brought down on his head and on the voted president? Ohio Republicanism the best. As described yesterday by a friend close to the Senator, they are in chief, these three. He desigued with the President as to the necessity of a new railroad rate enactment, he disgusted with him over the terms of the Statehood bill and he duly with him over the Howneville issued. "Are not these, and this friend, 'matters upon which a United States Senator is free to have an opinion?' What he matters upon which a United States Senator may be punished by the President for having and giving utterance to opinions not agreeable to the President? Two of these matters he wholly within the field of politics, and outside the sphere of the President's functions. The Brownlee matter presented at least a fair and honest question as to whether the Executive action had no strictly constitutional. It was a question which Congress was bound to ask. "No question of party politics was involved in any of these matters to exercise the President for administering discipline with every prominent Senator of his party? He was claimed as a party measure when the President was in dispute at one time or another during its consideration with every prominent Senator of his party? An enemy of the railroad regulation policy because he thought no new legislation was needed when you remember that not a single action has been brought under the new law that every proceeding thus far has been under the old of the Ekinsoy act." But what await it to discuss the ostensible grounds upon which the President justifies the "elimination" of the man who secured him Ohio in the critical hour of 1833, when everybody known to him was a mutual antipathy which, whenever the result for party, friends, or country, must work its ruthless instinct? W. B. H. A Nice Muddle It Man Got itself En From The New York Times A Constitutional Convention nominally controlled by a Democratic majority, though actually neither Democratic nor Republican, but intoxicated with the fashionable blend of Roosevelt-Bryan ideas, has offered to the suffrage of the people of Oklahoma a State Constitution so greetable, and malformed that, as it now appears, Statehood will be deferred until Congress takes further action. The Constitution has held. This is made tolerably clear by dispatches from Washington during the last few days which report a good deal of surprise in satisfaction with the new Constitution. Copies of the Constitution which found their way East some days ago awakened no little curiosity as to the state of public desiring to live under an organic law so remarkable. It was a very bulky Constitution, and dealt with a multitude of issues, including the Legislature for embodiment into statute law. It dealt with the corporations in a spirit of the most advanced latter-day sternness. Among other matters, it estimated the judgment of a State court should forfeit its charter. This was pretty wild, but no wilder than some of the estimates Mr. Townsend made into their ratemaking bill: no wilder than Mr. Garfield's ill-fated anti-injunction bill. In laying out legislative districts it is impossible to imagine the imposed upon the State a perfectly shameless gerrymander, and an injunction has been granted, forbidding the calling of an election in Wood County under New Constitution before November, 1935. It is reported in the Washington dispatches of The Evening Post that no authentic copies of the Constitution have been given out. Those received have been given out and the Federal government, even, is unwitting the receipt of his copy. It passes understanding why in so serious a matter as preparing for Statehood is resort should be had to such base deceptions. On the advice it has received, the provision of the Constitution will be disinlined to connection and promulkate the instrument even if adopted by the people. Gossip has been prompted to use political motors of the country, and approval from the new Constitution. Oklahoma will have seven Electoral votes, at all will be a Democratic State. The Republican party is very fond of power, and we do not suppose that now any more will be the result of the defeat of the out of their way to hasten the admission of a State that would give no much aid and comfort to the enemy. But if Washington reports of the character of the new Constitution, we look out, if it is not necessary to work for political for Federal rejuvenation to admit into the Union a new State under such a crazy-quilt of organic law. If the people of Oklahoma want to escape from the territorial election they have a duty to them-policy which they have to be quickly perform. The first duty of course, is to make public their proposed Constitution at least they must see the propriety, the necessity even of transmitting a certain lawless law. The first duty that their chosen delegates have been so all-advised as to engrain their Populist ideas upon the instrument to a degree that makes it doubtful whether a republican form of government would be supposed under the law. It is not to reassemble their Constitutional Convention if that be possible. They are at present in very great sense of seeing their hopes of Statehood deferred at least another year and, perhaps, indolence to the Republican government would be required to make the decision. WAGE: SLAVERY AND CHATTEL SLAVERY. From The Weekly People Elsewhere in this issue will be found an article entitled "The South." The gist of this article is a quotation from a letter on free speech under Southern chattel slavery, published in The Crown Journal of Mary Washington, William E. Dodd of the Randolph-Macon College, Ashland, Va., on April 15. The Dodd's long delay in publishing the letter can only be accounted for on the ground that its deep significance, Written in a deep manner, yet withal fearlessly, the Dodd letter proves the correctness of the Socialist theory that it is the prevailing mode of production and distribution that moulds social institutions. When chattel slavery was prescribed, it would not do to spread a knowledge of chattel slavery by word of mouth or printed page. Such a course would end in teaching the chattel slaves a knowledge of their power, and give a knowledge of the old Southern fear of a slave urinating. ```markdown ``` Under wage slavery, it is no different. The private ownership of land and capital makes it necessary to maintain an army of wage slaves in ignorance. Knowledge, percolated through the various societies, must be understood under the present precapitalist understates make them revolutionary, in brief. So once more are the tongues of the teacher and the legislator curbed. Once more are school and State subservient in maintaining the prevailing mode of production and distribution and the social institutions. The acts of chattel slave appear in a new form under that of wage slavery. The special virtue of the Dodd letter is that it is specific. Not only does it detail the agencies by which the old tradition is also imposed, but also by which the new ones are being imposed. Among the latter are the railroad companies, the tobacco trust and J. P. Morgan. The sincerity of the so-called Dodd letter is another general Educational Board of New York and the subsidiary Southern Education Board, are also questioned; while Northern colleges are not exempted from the blinding indifference of the interests of the students, the seem that we have no such thing as academic freedom in America, and there are not a few who openly assert that such is the case. Now the *Entering Post* hesitated to force publishing the Dodd letter. Significant letters require significant action. SQUARE DEAL IN LOS ANGELES. From The Western Outlook founded the Westminster Book Los Angeles Mayor Harper would gladly leave determination on the places, and at his loft the city connect made an effort in that direction this evening. The mayor submitted a special message on the subject, suggesting an ordinance making it a misdeeme- ment in a salon, theatre or restaurant signs that Negroes shall not be served. The ordinance was passed. The above dispatch shows that Los Angeles has city officials who believe in giving insulted, needlessly, and the way things were getting in the Southern topics was such as to cause one to f ashamed of California. We are pleas to see the stand that has been taken we are satisfied that it will work beautifully to promote, feeling of civic foothold. All. Mayor Harper: The Sort of People Needed in the Country FARMERS IN DEMAND Those Who Go to West Africa Must Be Prepared for Pioneer Life and Work. To the Editor of The New York Age: I am reading in this mail a letter to Mr. Alexander, of Alexander's Magazine, in answer to a letter from him, informing me that he is assisting Mr. Francis II. Warren of Michigan, to send out here next September nearly 600 young men, and requesting me to write an article for his magazine. If you think what I am saying to him is of sufficient public interest, you may run it out in Titic Ace. I send this line to you, because, if I am to break word, I desire to do so through you as well as through Mr. Alexander. I watch with great interest the fight which you are making in the United States for equality of opportunity. But we are jealous of Africa and am surprised that African-Americans turn their faces toward Liberia. If they come here they will have a cordial reception from the President and will give them the warmest kind of welcome. Outside of a small political class, it is generally admitted that we need some fresh blood, and Liberia would profit greatly if people of the right stamp would come out here. there to make homes, have to contend with difficulties a million times greater in which confront the newspaper Larry Linney, the country fail who have no innate habits of industry. They have no disposition for industry. They have no disposition for the general education of their children both in our schools here and in schools abroad; they have no disposition to work in industry. They have no ingenuity of a State of their own. And, because the climate is gnoidal and nature beautiful, they lose the little energy and life of their children here, and become indolent, idle, worthless. This country needs primarily farmers. If men will come from the States and from the West Indies to till our soil, to build up such farms in the Eastern and Western parts of the United States; and, if they bring a little money, and some antibiotics and anti-miitrial medicines, especially quinine; and, after they come, they will buy them from the United States to raise profitably anything which grows in the Southern part of the United States, or in the West Indies. And they will find a profitable market in Europe for them. And, more, a cleaver works well when it is actually force the opening up of communication between the United States and Africa direct. In the beginning, only one steamer a month, or one steamer in two or three months, would be a Philadelphia, or Boston; but it would not take a long time to develop a volume of trade to require a gradual enlargement of this merchant marine. In such an enterprise, the New York Liberians, would take a profitable hand. Our homes on both sides of the Atlantic would be comfortable and elegant our children would be well educated, and we ourselves in later life would enjoy the presence of travel books and other things. I have emphasized the need of farmers, because any man of energy enterprise and continuous industry can succeed in the production of the soil, as no large capital is needed. But there are other simple lines of industry, which could be profitably followed, such as catching, brickmaking and theivation of the soil, as no large capital is needed. I wish in conclusion to emphasize this statement, that no good results accrue to or to Negroes, who come here immigration to this country is entered in the countryside and avenues lighted by electricity; cognition; school houses and spacious church edifices; street cars andance balls; hotels and eating salons; warehouses and avenues from wages or salaries, or from other sources of industry for purposes of eating and drinking and daming; for purposes of wearing fine clothes and patient dress; for purposes of working generally, let the Negro star in the United States, where, under the leadership and domination of the white man, Kaypt. have been established on every hand. Here, in Liberia, is self-demanding and ork, and the serious, business of house-building and nation building. The people of Liberia are very creeps. But the Negro fails, who, to use Bigop Payne's expression, "is ruled by his back and his belly." He is no good country and he is not wanted here. No one most fear making any insurmountable difficulties in the climate of Liberia. I do not like to make a personal effort to help you. But if you are my second residential experience in Liberia, I have here over a year now, and I and my family are in perfect health and vigor. And my case is not an exceptional case. But this is the life of the African can Legation, who has recently married a Liberian young lady, enjoys perfect health here, and has gone so for over five years. You will soon have a visit from the President of the College of West Africa, and editor of *Liberia and West Africa*. You will find that he and his cultured wife are in as vigorous health as anybody in the United States. Here, who comes possessed of a pioneer spirit, prepared and willing to "take pot luck" in the country as he finds it, and to use his muscle as well as his hands. But such a man can accomplish much for Liberia. But a man who comes here simply to make his mark in politics, or merely to exploit the country, is likely to become disappointed, to lose heart and to lose confidence. He is the class of people who return to America and share Liberia. Yours truly. T. McCANTY STEWART, Mercorvia, Lilleboro, April 15, 1807. T. Theodore Talbot, t. T. Talbot of Buffalo, N.

Result Attributed to Disinfection Over Brownville. From The Philadelphia Pilot. To the utter surprise of the political savants, the recent election in Baltimore went Democratic. Negro voters of that city, voicing their displeasure over the Brownville affair, are held directly responsible for this result. The statement is made that the majority of Negro voters in the city oppose the politician that those who did go, although they were Republicans, voted the Democratic ticket. This intractability on the part of Negroes is, of course, causing no little unintention to matter what the final outcome may be, there is no question but that there has been a great miscarriage of justice with the brownies. Negroes who are more American should be held to account, not especially by Negroes, but by the great American consciousness of right. This is why we applaud that army of Negroes who are the most dignified way of registering their protest against the Brownies injustice, for which the Republican party chose to stand sponsor, remained away from the issue, and is difficult to understand by what process of reasoning. Negroes conclude that they are actually rebuking any party, and that they are directly for that brand of Democrats who are more unanimous in upholding the Republicans with reference to this affair than they are in upholding them in any other 11. Negroes desire to use their suffrage as a means of protecting against "Brownsville," and in a manner which will neither robawd upon them nor make them appear robawd of thun, wing of the Republican party which stands for the injustice, nor for the Democrats who applaud it, but rather through the support of some party, such as the Prohibition, or Socialist, which is above such injustice, or through not voting at all. REMOVED FROM THE PIE COUNTER. Official Deceptions That Were Approved in Tennessee From The Colored Cumberland Presbyterian Mission The Hog, Arch Hughes, the postmaster at Columbia, Tenn., and the Hon. Joe Billon, the Collector of Customs at the Nashville postoffice, both have their own office. The Collector of Customs has their office. This is as it should be and will meet the approval of all the local Republicans of Middle Tennessee, both white and colored, who have the best interest of the Republican party at heart. The Executive Committee of Davison county that Mr. Dillon knifed for Mr. Evans, the Republican candidate for Governor, who was the nominee of the party for the Hon. state, and rumor has it that the Executive Committee has hired his district. Both of these administration officers utterly refused to contribute their influence and financial assistance in helping to bring about a Republican victory in Tennessee, but rather aided the Hon. H. Chy Evans for Governor. The Postmaster-General is to be congratulated for his timely action in the Hughes case, as well as the Secretary of the Interior in the removal of Mr. Dillon. A few more such removals from the Reps. are to be great help to the faithful Republicans, who are working hard to keep the party organized and united. BROWNSVILLE AGAIN. The Story Has Been Told and the Order Was Wrong. The Brownville case is an agam. It is still the Brownville mystery. Sources of witnesses have been examined in Texas and in Washington. The testimony submitted by the soldiers, the innocence of the soldiers, Army officers who in the beginning believed the soldiers guilty have followed carefully every move in the proceedings, the correctness of their earlier opinion, and a considerable number are confident of the innocence of the men. The hearing before the private commissioner of the district government some six weeks ago was decided largely to an examination of the man of the accused battalion. Special attention will now pay to the evidence of the president of Brownville. All of people have been examined several times before by other authorities, there is not enough probability that they will throw away light on some of the people have testified some vaguely and some quite directly, to their identification of the shooting party as colored soldiers. Testimony is impossible if not to the actual impossibility of such recognition on the right of the occurrence. Other parts of the testimony given by civilians are simply admitted during the committee hearing. It is unfortunate that both politics and race prejudice plays a large part in the decision to appoint a senator. Though has been formed to show beyond any reasonable doubt the entire innocence of a large number of the accused men. Meanwhile they remain under the guardianship of the senator. It is to be hoped that before the hearings are over the guilty may be delimited, and the accused will be convicted, and the innocent released of the burden laid upon them by an order now shown to be overgross and not properly warranted. It appears at present is that Senator Foraker, who stands for a square deal for the soldiers, and Senator Warren, who gets as counsel for the Administration, has a large and difficult job before them. L. L. L. GRAND LODGE. It Now Has a Charter—Good Work of the Order. DAYNYON, Ohio, April 29. The L. L. U. Grand Lodge of Dayton, Ohio has been granted in Charter by the Government, which improves of the aims and objects of its members. This is the union which grants full protection to our race in raising their wages, advancing their conditions and protecting them during sickness and death. The Grand Lodge is celebrating the fifth anniversary of the order during May, and the various subordinate lodges throughout the country are holding appropriate exercises and commemoration services in honor of the event. The Grand Lodge is also celebrating the order for the month of April, 1907. Thirteen new lodges were formed, also one new district council, and one lodge was reinstated, thus making a total of fifteen added to the list of the month of April. The 50,000 members initiated up to date, and the good the order is doing among our people is increasing every day. So far this year, a net increase of more than $10,000 per week has been gained in the members of the union, of which goes directly into the pockets of the members.

NO ROYAL ROAD TO SUCCESS They Who Make Good Must Humble All of the Time—What the Racer Has Accumulated in the South—Grab Opportunity. From The Portland (Ore.) New Age. Booker Washington continues to preach the gospel of hope and good cheer to the colored people and advises them to turn to God for guidance and agreeable and disappointing side of their life and look upon the progress they have made. Such advantages and opportunities are their fate, and the possibilities of continued success and disappointment. What he says is in fact good advice for any race or class of people, but it is his mission to speak specially to the people whom he is the one who gladly and give need to his good advice. Mr. Washington addressed a large audience in Indianapolis one evening last week, and he invited them to colorful people when he told them what the Negro is doing in the Southern States as farmer, grower, and businessman. He impressed the impressive statement that at a model estate colored men are paying upon over $M(M)(MM) worth of property in the city by operating in "high finance," but by the investment of small savings gained as a rule, by manual labor. Commenting on this The Indianapolis News "The lesson for the Negro North and South lies right there—the lesson of industry and thrift. "A the North, through no fault of his so many revenues of employment, has so many workers that this there is no lack of work. No Negro need be idle if he cares to be occupied at nummerical labor. Everywhere there is a demand for work that he can do. It is not the lack of money, wages and a share of the harvest may be his if he will take them. When he has saved his money and invested in land or other tangible property he acquires a share of the harvest. He can get in no other way. One Negro who succeeds is an inspiration to many. Mr. Washington urges them to set aside example, but he also has upon these students the responsibility of uplifting and encouraging the weaker members of their race and keeping them from idle and vicious ways. It is a responsibility that they should take. It is a responsibility for the weaker element of the crowded population does the entire race harm. All are judged by it to a greater or less degree, and however unjust this sweeping from it is to work toward the detriment of the brother, who cannot stand alone. NOTES OF THE ORANGES In Opportunity Nearly Least-Church and Social Hampstead. The Rev. Dr. Jackson, who for twelve years the National Baptist convention, occupied the pulpit of the Calvary Baptist church, P.E.T. Dr. Jackson, I.D. Travis, I.D. pastor, Dr. Jackson graphically portrayed the life and customs of the people to whom he ministers in Africa and told of the result of his work. The close of the service a collection was taken up and presented to the doctor to assist him in his work. The energetic young minister of the A.M. E. church, Orange, is being talked of as the successor of Dr. Brown of St. Paul's church. The church is to be congratulated on being that pressure to be removed Rev. Dr. Brown is possible for him to abandon his prosperous businesses and devote that energy which is responsible for his great success to the conversion souls to God and mingle with the nation of civilization, culture and refinement. The Oranges need more modern and energetic minister leaders who are ambivalent in being handcapped or burdened. The missionary fair field in the Calvary Baptist church, East Orange, last week was as usual, an inspiring success. The work was as usual, the president of the land is deserving of the chance of self-shrinking as well as successful efforts during the period of her presidency. Mrs. Clark's local as well as general work in line of endeavor was the most successful of the May pole drill on Thursday night was the feature of the fair. Under the direction of Mrs. William Curtis the young ladies who took part showed the dedication of the construction by drilling like soldiers. The team acts in charge of Mr. William Clark was a unique as well as paying feature. Rev. Mrs. Travis, together with Mrs. Curtis were the managers and are responsible for the graduation, because of the showing made. A meeting of the Afro-Americai etiens of the Orange is called for Thursday afternoon in the auditorium of the St John's A. E. church to consider plans for the building. The plan will be organized which shall have for the purpose of its existence the welfare and bet्емment of the race in the Orange's settlement, one in which politics shall delay little or no part. The rapid accumulation of properties and homes by our own people will be made in the agreement, in various businesses, and the high standing of individual Afro-Americai pupils in the public schools, emplate to the need of a civic organization to uphold and protect those who are making good as well as to whip into line the timberstone men's mills, who each spring. Like the robin come to the Oranges to nest again. The Misses Belle and Harriet Berry, Miss G. Miller and Mees, Louis Hey, per Benjamin Berry, Harris of New York city and H. Hamilton Travis were the zesters of Mr. and Mr. A. Tray's of diner on Sunday last. The Workingmen's Industrial Club of East Orange is saying nothing but working quietly, buying property and going ahead. Few know of its existence, but all will know when they build their large apartment house. Mr. Pleasant Jones's work workers serve credit for their good work. What has become of the Women's Industrial Association and the adoption of a plan for a Working Girl's Home, as suggested by the writer when an interview with the organization was advised that a charitable white gentleman of wealth asked to have submitted to him the plan for the organization and operation of the Home, and if some met his approval he would build it and prepare a new organization. This opportunity Grasp it by the fordeck and let the clikers kick. Let now if we can be of any help. Too bad! Too bad! But, wives, be all to your husbands to all things. Remember you are his helppet even if he is not your husband. Scandal is the one rolling stone that gathers much moss. Don't gossip. "Of course they were all working women."

When the resuscitated Republican party of the South rided up to the poorly eaten upon the back of the Negro, it is to be hoped St. Peter will not invite the rider inside and tell him to high his steed outside. LAWLESSNESS IN THE SOUTHLAND. When one reads about the acts of lawlessness in some portions of the Southland, together with the utter helplessness of the police, one is tempted to apprehend and punish the real perpetrators of the crime, he is led to repeat the malignant but impressive question of the brilliant T. Thomas Fortune of New York, whom he asked. "In the white South civilized?" When it is noticed that some fiends set off a charge of dynamite or some other high explosive, the boor of two and a half clock hours is 12, at Ruston, Louisiana, blowing the house to pieces and killing Mr. Samuel Cook and four other colored people sleeping in the front room, the time for the question of the questioner comes to be at hand. Mr. Cook's body was blown 80 feet away and was nothing more than a mass of flesh and house. It was found lodged in the floor, and wires of the colored woman who was in the house were blown a hundred feet or more in the air, falling through the branches of a high tree and snapping wires of the telephone ground. Even the body of a young baby was blown into a street nearby and two girls were blown into a fence corner some distance away. The latter once alight. The latter lingered short time before she, too, passed away. The entire town was shocked by the explosion, which partook of the nature of an earthquake. The authorities are endeavoring to fect out the guilty party, but the authorities are not in this section of the country, will be a closed chapter. Those who know dare not tell and those who do not know dare not investigate too closely for four of a similar fate. Wonder if President Roosevelt, whose indication was so thoroughly armed over the alleged shooting up of Brownsville, Texas, has read this account of fieddishness in the sovereign State of Louisiana. He has lectured us on some crime he have to relate to this latest phone savagery in this sister State to Texas? Here, is man-murder, woman-murder and baby-murder. It was not done by Negroes and white people were not the victims. They were not the Ages and find a more intriguing outrage than this one could to be. President Roosevelt could "blood" out of the army of the United States colored men convinced them even the blissfulness of a hearing, but here he has a case where men, women and children, innocent of any wrongdoing have been ordered into eternity. This occurs too in a State where the Negroes are disfranchised and jealous. They have practically no legal rights that a white man is bound to respect. They have no rights that a black man is minded white men of the old school, who will at times hear their pleas and come to their defense. In this case they were not given the opportunity to breathe a new life in the cradle was not even spared. But President Roosevelt does not seem to stop to consider these things. The plan of justification for the Negro, and the plan of justification for the white, he boarded his "hit man." One thing we know and it gives true belief confidence. God has promised to bring all things right in His own time and He has assured us that Eternal Justice will surpass the laws of on the guilty and "set the captive free." There is a wall and a mean now being board over this sunny land and to the throne on high. The terrible outrage that the Negro has committed against the murderers will not be apprehended until the morning of the General Resurrection, but it does seem to us that a distinguished statesman of the Roosevelt type should be able to help the murderers and the gash statesman long enough to do simple justice to men who were once his comrade-in-arms. The seven pieces of the templar has been forgotten and reestablished that he was doing right and do it now. If the revel of this bloody happening in Louisiana does not bring him back to his primitive attirees and reestablish him upon the podestal of his former master, so far as he is interested in heretics. Colored men must protect themselves and they must possess the necessary skills to defend themselves. Let them in a lawless section of the country, surrounded by many envious white elements and the support and encouragement of many of the better class of South African whites and South African Jews. We can at least be brave. Let us look to God and depend on our own weak efforts to stay the tide that has steadily set in motion. Colored men, do not be disheartened. Let us go forward. Let them deny us brave. Let them take from us protection. Let them dynamite our houses. Let them burn down on the gallows. Let them burn us at the stake, but let us remember that the persecutions of the present have no purpose in intensity; we brutalizes of us. We must remember one and we can live through the other. The annihilation of the entire race at one fell swamp can only check our prog- GEN. KUROKI AT WEST POINT. Japanese Commander Received by Detachment of Black Troopers. When General Kunoki visited West Point last week he found drawn up at a wooden troop box, armed troops their foes shining with the moisture. Commanding them was Captain Francis C. Marshall of the Fifteenth Cavalry. There was a ringing order, a brief and jangle of subway and just as the cavalry froze and faced the cavalrymen every shining colre flashed out in salute. The cavalry of horsemen and carriages swept round the drive, past soldiers and faced the reception halls where cadets were too busy grinding out work even to look out of windows, past the mess hall and finally swung to the corner of the great green parade ground in front of the Captain Marshall swing his column of fours and trained it out at the angle of the road, a strangely skillful swinging line of fours, and a solidly solid sitting line of fours, as the general's carriage reached the corner the salute of seventeen guns began to crash out with triphammer thuds. The fours were bobbing and their foot dancing, but with the lightest touch on bridle the Negro troopers kept them at night. Captain Marshall sang out an order and the easy march of the Kuroki's carriage whirled round the corner and went to the Officers' Club, every Japanese in the company returning to the station. Colonel Scott entertained the visitors at lunchroom immediately. Von Japanese waiters are employed at the foot and the face of the little sententa fairly beamed with delight as the visitors are scouted to Memorial AFRO-AMERICAN REALTY This Company has as its principal object the better housing of the Negro Tenant Class. As a result of its operation for a period of a little over a year, it can point to the control of twenty-five (25) New York City Apartment Houses, valued at over Nine Hundred Thousand Dollars ($990,000). Nine (9) of this number the Company owns, and the other sixteen (16) dollars by the Company under long lease. These houses rent for Ninety Thousand Dollars ($990,000) a year.

GUILD ON THE RACE QUESTION. His Address Before the Roosevelt Club of Manchucunette. From The Springfield Republican. Where should we expect resistance to special privilege if not from those who with the inherited instinct of the seals of their ancestors, from the days of the French Revolution, from the right of the tilter of the soil to an amiable enjoyment of the fruits of his own frugality and toil? Where should we seek for opposition to irresponsible anarchism in Massachusetts, from the right of property if not in a race that has long to religion even when the lee of the hedges and the caves in the mountains were their churches. Republican party here in Massachusetts is in the foundation, can and must oppose any support of my church by the state. It can and must so conduct the state to deserve the support of all the people in Massachusetts or religion as the ground for appointment to public offices. No man should be released public office on the ground of race in the history of the commonwealth, a skilled attorney of African blood sits at Massachusetts court for we are being to that time in the confluence of the state board of Massachusetts. For the first time, I believe, in the history of the commonwealth, a skilled attorney of African blood sits at Massachusetts court for we are being to that time in the confluence of the state board of charity. The first judge of Italian blood, the first two Jewish judges to sit on a Massachusetts bench, are exercising the functions of the court on the state board of charity, however, has been made than by the latest accessories to public office of men of your own race. No man has brought to the municipal bench of Boston a higher degree of sympathy for the unfortunate and the erring, than Michael J. Murray. After some forebodings in certain quarters the excise board has laid out the means from societies of citizens organized for the support of order have taken the place of complaints. The legal member of the commission that has done these things is, as you know, Samuel Hudson. Bring your Job Work to The New York Age New Type. New Press. New Outlet. Telephon, 017 and 018 Mariem.

Opportunities in Louisiana. From The Louisiana Searchlight. If there's any place in Louisiana that holds out to the Afro-American more opportunities for advancement along the lines of industry, business or otheres- tices, does Frison it remains yet to be known. If the Afro-Americans of Louisiana could realize the great opportunities that are offered in Frierson, that place would be the greatest city in the South for the colored man. The encouragement given the colored to buy and own land at a ridiculously low price is indeed gratifying. Some of the progressive men that I met in Frierson were Moses, Joe Clement, L. H. Hill, real estate dealers; F. R. Good, jeweler; J. E. Williams, merchant; Joe Denn, R. C. Mitchell and J. C. Gillard, planters; P. Burke, Husse, his chaps, advisers; and a great number of others who are operating various kinds of business. The school at Frierson is destined to be one of the best in North Louisiana. The people are industrious, and one fact is notable that the truck farm that is owned by them is Joe Clement is evidence that the soil is adapted to truck raising in and around Frierson. The *Name All Over.* From The Portland New Age. If the colored men of Portland were to make their voting strength known, they would be more respected by the politicians.

After the sermon, Dr. Clinton, of Morris Brown College, Atlanta, Ga., addressed the organization in behalf of the school and as usual the boys lived up to their charitable reputation and donated quite a neat sum.

The quartet by Gillian Bailey, Bessie Morris, Lilian Hall and Lilie Bell was especially good. Little Fannie May Golding gives praise and the recitation by Jessie Nicholson impressed one that she would win signal honors as an elocutionist. Much credit is due Mrs. Mary Hall who so ably directed the affair which was a success from every standpoint. Mrs. Amanda Sloan of Salisbury, N.C. is in the city, the guest of her daughter Mrs. Tina W Henderson, 1312 Elm Street. The Afro-American of Portsmouth is at the grounds of the Jamestown Exposition by his absence. The only interest that has been asked to is that is shown in the Naval display. A few enterprising people have captured handsome steamboat and are making regular and special trips to the historic Hampton Rounds. They are known as the Afro-American Steamboat Company. By their generous and courteous treatment of all, they have already endeared themselves to the best people of this community, the following parties; Monday, the Y. M. C. A.; Tuesday, Miss Ethel Riddick for the benefit of the scholars of her school; Friday, the Cannon Ball Volunteer Fire Company. Almost the entire Afro-American population of this section have announced that if they should attend, Expedition will be for the Crown" but will patronize their own enterprise. It is as it should be.

Bylington Greenhouse furnishes the community with beautiful flowers at all times during the 27 year. Rose, carnations, hyacinths, panicles and daffodils are some of the flowers now in blossom. Easter lilies will soon be in blossom. It is the plan, just as soon as possible, to move the barns out on the farm and thus save considerable expense in connection with the agricultural operations of the school. The benches have already been to the school football. The truck garden is now furnishing the school and families of the neighborhood with onions, beets, cabbage, lettuce, collards, turnips and parsnips which are a good vegetable supply for this time in the year. Potatoes, English peas, kale, mustard, tomato, and other seeds are now being planted. During the present school year 1,620 students have been enrolled; 1,065 of this number are boys and 555 are girls. There are four courses being taught in cooking atuskewe Institute, and 270 being taught sewing, including dressmaking. One of our Trustees has recently spent considerable time visiting the graduates and former students of the school in the South and finds that they are making most satisfactory records in the various lines of work in which they are engaged. Most of them are working at the trades and industries learned at the school and are identified with the potent influences for good in the various communities in which they are located. The demand from the white people of the South, to say nothing of that which comes from the Negro race, for the services of men and women in various industrial operations, is greater than can be satisfied. This is the case. Our annual Commencement Exercises are to be held toward the last of May, as usual. We count ourselves especially fortunate in securing Right Reverend W. A. Candler, Bishop of the Methodist Episcopal church, South, to preach the Commencement sermon, and Honorable Charles W. Anderson, U. S. Collector of Internal Revenue, New York City to deliver the annual commencement address. Binding upon the old man of the lightened and generous men of the great church with which he is connected; Mr. Anderson is a comparatively young man, and one of our race who has won high honors for himself and his people in so hard a place as New York city. In former years we have found, under the old method of bedding sweet potatoes to secure the slips, that in some seasons planting was delayed quite a number of days. This year, however, the students constructed a hot bed with steam connections to form the growth of the sweet potatoes was delayed quite a number of days. During April 250,000 of the little plants were drawn from the hot bed. We plan to set out about 100 acres of land in sweet potatoes. The visit to this institution by Miss Margaret W. Tantum, in company with her aunt, Mrs. Myra V. Frees, and their pastor, Rev. J. Calvin Killian and wife, was the most interesting and satisfactory event of the past month. It was very interesting and instructive with respect to aunt and pastor and his wife. The exercises in connection with the dedication of the Tantum Memorial Building were simple and impressive. The address made by Rev. Killian was in every way in keeping with the importance of the occasion. A good friend of Irish posters has been grown in the trunk garden this year. The demand for dairymen trained at Tuskegee Institute is much greater than the demand for dairymenhip the students in this division, the following apparatus are needed. 1 Starter vat, $20; 1 receiving can, $8; 1 rotary water pump, $10; 1 butter printer, $25; 1 milk heater, and cooler, $100; 2 cheese vats, $75; 1 card sink, $25. Other apparatus needed to the dairy, we are having made in our sheds.

The purpose of the meeting was to set before the parents the various courses of study the school has to offer, its work, and the general requirements, with a view to their better selecting for their children, according to their individual tastes.

The play, which was written for the occasion, Misses Maude K. Griffin and Jessie C. Sheet was produced under the auspices of the Literary Committee of Hope Day Nursery. It is estimated that no less than 5,000 were present, and though at times the crush was uncomfortable, the crowd was never beyond control. The lauded sets on the main floor were at the back and sides where even a chair could be placed or it was possible to find standing room, hosts of men and women sought points of vantage from which to see the play, while the balconies were equally crowded. Beginning with a prologue with Miss Graze Brown, of Newark, as "Herald" the performance was preceded by the Crossroad Chorns of Brooklyn and New York, under the direction of Prof Win R.

KINK·NE 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. Roberta, 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 tonic for the colored people. This chemist says that his experience and study have taught him that the scalp of the colored people requires a special treatment and after laboring and testing these 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 it has grown on an average of two inches each month and it is now more than fifteen inches long. Besides, 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."

Bowles, Mgr. tag 18-19 Served by a Brave Methodist Matter From The Southwestern Christian Ad- dress One of the strongest assets of the Negro people of this country is the sympathy and Christian helpfulness of the Methodist Episcopal Church. This church has been sensitive to the crises of the oppressed everywhere and particularly has it been friendly disposed toward the cause of the Negro. Representing the church, The Advocate with rare exceptions have been faithful pleaders for our cause and over on the alert to withstand contagion of the virus. The Lutheran church has been The Pitttburg Christian Advocate, whose editor is one of the strongest men of the church. Senator Tillman spent a night in Pittsburgh recently, and Dr. C. V. Smith of the Advocate, pays him the following rhyme: "Senator Tillman lectured in this city last week on the race problem. In fact, his speech is simply a severe and unreasoning attack on the Negro race. It is a conspiracy over the race, a conspiracy abomens and vulgar assault. It is said that the organization which brought him here is made up chiefly, if not exclusively, of men representing the Protestant Epicopal Church. Bishop Whitehead was announced to introduce the Senator to the race, but to his credit it must be said that he refused to so far indorse the performance. We congratulate the Bishop on his good judgment and taste. He no doubt saved himself humiliation, for it is said that the Senator so and so felit in some of the statements that ladies felt compelled to retire from the hall. We are surprised that thoughtful, and even Christian, men can lend themselves to the encouragement of such things. No one is more likely to be encouraged, some money, and they thought the violent fire-cating Senator would be a paying investment; but thoughtful people should not be willing to make money in that way. We are not encouraged to be encouraged by any respectable people. We have frequently said, and here repeat, that this race problem is a most serious matter for the country, both in terms of the public and in the most careful attention of the whole people. It should be frankly and fairly discussed, to the end that we may all have a clear understanding of its difficulties, and we have the best possible thought to it solution. "We believe it would be well to have it discussed fully before the Northern people by speakers and writers from the south, the subject of which I have not yet addressed. But those who present it must be reasonable and moderate people, who take counsel of their reason and conscience and not semeless undeapte who rail and fume whenever they approach the subject, and not framed clean well elucidate the subject, and aid in its solution; while those of the Tillman type only make matters worse. It is not the discussion of the race problem the people have, and whenever we have less and less maneuver in which such men deal with it. "Before Senator Tillman came to this city there was considerable talk in the papers of possible violence by the colored people; this was all unwarranted. One no one had any thought of disturbing him. Our colored people are law-abiding. Some of them went to bear the Senator, to see what foolish people could say, and that was all there was of it. "We suppose there is no way to put a stop to this permeating disturber of the relations of the races. So long as he can contemplate his hatred of the colored race, and at the same time fill his packets with the presses of his outbursts, he will do so; and so long as the packets will invite him, the hope of both races is the sober, thoughtful people who will not be parties to such things." Pamale Harpealage. The marriage of Rev. C. C. Ringgold and Miss Emma Dorsey is set for June 5 at the home of Miss Dorsey, 35 Main avenue. The concert hold at Bethel A.

Representatives who were present, to keep the proposed bill from becoming a law. We are thankful to say that the better judgment of that body prevailed, and we have been spared the penalty of being posted in many of the other States. The success which attended our efforts upon this occasion indicates clearly that with organization throughout the State and discretion management we can do much toward creating a healthy public opinion among the interests of our race.

The Democrats have again come in possession of the control of affairs in the city of Baltimore, and the result is due to no refusal of the Negroes to vote. We are now in favor of the lukewarmness of the Negro voter and for his failure to enthuse over the Republican candidates, but no matter which is right, the fact that they did something out of the usual shows conclusively that the Negro is certainly better than the white, and does the same sort of thinking next year there will be some trouble in many of the doubtful Stutes. The election in Baltimore demonstrates another thing with the Negro. It proves that he is not afraid to entrust the affair to the Democrats, and when the Republicans continues him that they are not any better to the Negro than are the Democrats, and when the Negro reaches this point he will certainly gain the respect of all parties. The Negro also, shows that he knows how to vote for measures and not for iron, no matter to what party they may belong. Hampton's Nonfires for Council From The Fishermen's Net The voters of the Third Ward have done the proper thing in nominating Messrs. Alkins and Robinson for Council. The TPCB has been elected by Negroes, many of whom are among the most progressive of the race in the town of Hampton, with large business interests, and therefore are entitled to the Election. W. E. Arkins and Mr. William H. Robinson are representative citizens of the town and the ward who are fittingly interested in the work of the town and ability and every voter of the ward should interest himself in helping to elect these two men. The 13 ward is badly in need of municipal attention and we beware of the people who would do all in their power to see that it of the desired intention. Recreation Centres' Gauges. The recreation centres, of which there are nineteen for boys, held their second annual championship at the sixty-ninth regiment armory Tuesday night, May 14.

Younger, a colored runner, whose training has been done in Recreation Centre 25, Manhattan. It was a close race and the former collegian was extended to his limit to win by a scant six inches.

I read in the papers last week of the grand time the Japanese have been having here. The American people have shown their devout. They do not care any more for the Japanese than they do for the colored man; but the Japanese are not like us. They can and are demanding what they are receiving from the Japanese. From them we can do the least of what he only can do, especially the American white man. We should be glad to see a dark race of people come up like the Japanese have. Have we learned from them what we can do? Should we who have learned less see the great need of a government of our own. We should encourage emigration to Liberin and Hayri and make them strong. Not all they can then we demand. We will all WALL Network N. J. May 19, 1907. The Ippish, Ignorant Sort Who Make a "Problem." BINGHAMTON, May 12.—While traveling from Albany to Binghamton to attend the funeral of his legal adviser, Ernest Wilson Huffett, Gov. Hughes, accompanied by the military secretary, Col. Treadwell, occupied a seat in a day coach. At Scholurie, Junction they stepped out to send a telegram. When they returned they found a large colored "aunty," with her voluminous skirts spread out, occupying the entire seat. "My dear mudam," said the Governor politely. "This seat contains my�ise, umbrella and oversent. Will you be kind enough to take another seat?" "I feel I won't," said the intruder, in a voice that filled the car. "All I have you to understand, did I see you as good as anybody," an "Aunny homns nint'n a 'gwin'e't'budge for nobody. You've taken you'd'd'd an' go." The Governor transferred his belongings to another seat. The "aunty" was Mrs. "Nate," Thomas, of Cobleskill, and she was much disturbed when she learned the identity of the man she had defied. An Appreciation of the Editor of The Age. From The Iowa State Rystander In the midst of a busy life in a busy world we seldom pause or think of the great men of our race who are wielding the pen in defense of our struggling race. Therefore it is a pleasure for us to present to our readers in the middle west the picture of T. Thomas Fortune, the best and oldest and best colored journal published in America. For 30 years the pen and voice of Mr. Fortune have defended our race in the great dailies, magazines and upon the rostrum of America.
