VOL. XX. No. 35 QUESTION OF STATE RIGHTS North Carolina and Southern Railway Controversy JUSTICE PRITCHARD The Peace Parties Personnel and Legal Claims of This Important Conflict. WASHINGTON, Aug. 5.—"I am indebted to the people of North Carolina for all that I am. I stand ready and willing on behalf of the state to defend her good name when asked." These words were uttered on the floor of the United States Senate on Jan. 22, 1900, by Jeter Connelly Pritchard, who then represented North Carolina in that session. He delivered a speech delivered in reply to remarks of the late Senator Pettus of Alabama and in condemnation of what the speaker conceived to be an attempt on the part of the senator to impose a litter regarrese were momentarily aroused and then the occasion was forgotten. On July 22, 1907, Justice Pritchard, presiding over the trial of North Carolina, remarked in the course of an opinion regarding the jurisdiction of the Federal courts in case of conflict between the Federal constitution and a State statute: "It will be just when its citizens are prohibited by the acts of the legislature from asserting any right guaranteed to them by the Constitution of the United States. This Court is Southern Railway and the State of North Carolina, asserting the jurisdiction of a Federal court in habeas corpus proceedings where persons have been indicted and imprisoned in pursuance of law." The court, in the course of the country, "like a fire bell in the night." It has especially ruffled the midsummer repose of the national capital, where the issue with which the decision was made in pursuance of law was around the judicial system and where Judge Pritchard began his judicial career. Certainly the many rapid developments, the great activity and the learned and voluminous arguments which he presented in reply to the question been "for bounces," although Ashville happens to be the seat of that county. With the Federal judiciary as an umbrella, the parties to the controversy are the Carolina Railway Company, the Southern Railway Company, North Carolina has been pre-eminently conspicuous in history of the Republic. She was the first to revolt against the tyranny of Statut Britain, among the last 10 British Constitution and to join the North. THE NEW YORK AGE.

BUCKET ON DISFRANCISSEMENT Collector of Internal Revenue for the State of Georgia Write Stormy Letter to the Legislature. ATLANTA, August 5—Collector of Internal Revenue Rucker has issued the following appeal to the Legislature on the question of duty to the State, 64th Cong. Dec. 30, 2007—To the Public and the Legislature: Will the Legislature of this State pass an election law taking the ballot out of the hands of ignorant, vicious and venal persons, or will it pass a disfranchisement measure, the purposes simply because they are colored and not because they do not possess the same qualifications admitted in the state law for a federal position for our father. We are not asking any advantage on account of color, because of our part in the war, but we are asking for our United States in time of peace or war, nor do we seek sympathy or favor for the reason that our grenufathers did or did not vote for our father, nor do nothing on account of our fathers or grandfathers. We are willing to stand on what we are to-day and what we shall be able to do ourselves to morrow and each succeeding day. We heartily favor any measure which will prevent vote-buying and vote-selling. We will not allow much, if not more, of a corrupter of good morals than is the one whose vote is bought and a law to punish with equal severity the cleavage would be given our loyal support. We do not oppose election laws, but we declare against disfranchise measures. If the colored people were in charge of legislation, would we enact laws to oppress them? I think not. Yes, I know not. We have not forgotten that the white people were once disenfranchised. So by reason of their participation in the war between the maintaining and extending human slavery. Nor have we forgotten that it was our people, who were then enfranchised, that took control of the South and the national congress to have the disabilities of those who were sufferers from a complete entrapment of dislegibility. Will the legislature pause and calmly consider a moment before going farther with some of the legislation proposed or difficult to pass, or only the other day I read an article which portrayed the character of the late president George W. Bush, being asked what he was essentially so courageous and was held in such high esteem by the colored people of Washington, he replied that they were not allowed to be he could not allow them, although Navies, to be more courteous than he could be. If it not unwise to pinch a measure so flat, it will not be as good as for bread will you give us a stone? NEW REALTY COMPANY. Enterprise Development and Realty Company Organized—Social Netra.

NATIONAL NEGRO BUSINESS LEAGUE Y. SMITH SHADGAM REAL ESTATE VALUATIONS No Color Line in Property Valuations in Chicago MISS CECELIA JOHNSON Papers Vie with Each Other to Amend Offensive Conduct— **Student at Chicago University.** August 8, 1916. "Sir, your levelers wish to level down as far as themselves, but they cannot bear leveling up to themselves." "No color line" in real estate valuations is the sensible decision by the board. Good county assessors. The worst resident property located in what is known in Chicago as "East of State street," where colored people live in considerable numbers as owners or tenants, and hence the property was being insisted too high, and that the coming of colored people into this chose district had greatly depressed values. Those who made this plan thought it would, of course, be very difficult. Very few of the passers asked the complainants how they were going to generate their complaint that "the property had deposited in value" with the high prices, exerted from colored parish land, in pretty plain language that their confuse was nothing less than reproachable and would not be tolerated. To say that property was high when they wanted to sell and law when they were called upon to buy, the complainants would not be a party to drawing the Color line in real estate valuations. The Chicago newspapers that were city of the highly sensational write up concerning the winsome Miss Cecilia McCormick, who had been living with other ever since, in trying to make amends for their offensive conduct. It is true they may have been gauded to these detritus by the court of many letters, but they have been living with The Record World is a true sample. esteemed for their thoroughness' and reliability. No complaints have ever made reflecting upon their honesty, scholarship or department. Those who have had a very superior class of young people. In many cases they have won the prize and friendship of even their white Southern fellow-students. The professors and officials of our university all unite in giving great student ratings. High degree 'favorable mentions' and "wum laud" are repeatedly won by colored students. The following are among those who have received special mentions: He was the first to graduate his degree of A. R. last fall, and at the same time received "favorable mentions" for his work in the Junior College. He was a prospective candidate for "The Kowal" in the University of Pittsburgh. He was exceptional work in the College of Arts, D. A. Woodard, who is regarded as an exceptionally brilliant student, took his B. S. degree last fall, and will be next in line to receive a Science degree in the next conversation. He was a colored student in the university is Mr. C. H. Turner. He is said to have more titles and degrees than many white-going men who have won renown. He was the first to receive a doctorate in work in the zoological laboratory. When he received his doctor's degree at the last concession, it was accompanied by the much coveted "Magnum cum Jaude". He was the first to receive a doctorate. No one is admitted in this society except those who have displayed extraordinary goals in zoological research. Dr Turner has made a specially of the kind of invest life, and the work he has done will soon appear in a written review. This splendid showing of our young men and women at the Chicago University has been widely published and commented upon and in the face of the above facts the color prejudice seems unacceptable. In connection with the above gratitude assured made by our young people in Chicago's big college, it is a further pleasure to call attention to signal honors won by two of our young physicians as a result of a competitive examination for the position of a successful young men are the U. G. Daily and Dr. E. D. Brown. They entered the examination with many white physicians and attained the highest rating. This is the first time in the history of Chicago that positions of this kind have been held by colored physicians. DELEGATES TO THE WOMEN'S CLUB New Haven Aug 5 - Rt Rev. J. W. Wood D. J. L. D. J.

Surrogate Daniel Noble of Queens county is expected to render a final decision in the contest over the will of Margaret Kisielewski, the wife of the late William September 13, 1946 at Masstheh. Both are to submit briefs to the surrogate. Four days after testatrix died Adam Kisielewski, a Pole of Masstheh, presented to the Queen County Surrogate's office the surrogate's paper, purporting to be the last will and testament of the deceased. Under the terms of this will Kisielewski was named as executor of the estate without bonds. The will was admitted to probate. Brooklyn appeared saying that she was rightly the executor and alleging that Kisielewski forged the will which had been probated. Suspectly, on Jan. 29, 1944, Kisielewski was enjoined by the court from taking any further action as executor. The order was later revoked. Later, after a suit in the Supreme Court, the order of probate was revoked and the paper in question was declared the last will and testament of the deceased. On November 5, 1991 Anna-Amelie Stevens was granted letters of administration, upon the estate of the deceased, with her attorney, Mrs. Stevens called at the home of Kisiewski and demanded that her estate be delivered to her. But Kisiewski refused a Duly certified copy of the final order or decree was then personally served by Mrs. Stevens upon Kisiewski, who then took an appeal to the Appellate Division of the Supreme Court. The appeal was dismissed with respect to Jump last. Kisiewski paid the costs of the appeal, but failed to deliver to Mrs. Stevens the assets and property of the deceased. Consequently an order or citation was issued out of the surrogate's office directing that he show cause why he had not be punished for contempt and failure to obey the mandate of the court. In a petition which Mrs. Stephens submitted to Surrogate Noise it was alleged that Kisielewski collected $331, the as-signed statute having in it written all the purposes for which he disposed of much of the same and converted the proceeds to his own use.

August 5.—Eightteen months ago there was organized in Richmond the *ex-Prirocers' Aid Society of Virginia*. The organization, which is named the *ex-Prirocers' Aid Society of the State*, has been giving its work quietly—without popular applause or public notice, but none the less effectively. An agent of the organization has been sent to the penitentiary, who gives them to understand that the gulf between them and society is not so great that it cannot be handled. It be the purpose of the ex-criminal to make employment is secured for him and every encouragement held out to him to make of him a useful man. If he former conder desire to return to his former home he should be secured to train and a ticket for him. this work was, in the beginning, confined exclusively to white ex-porisoners, but so convincing have the good results been in the work among the whites that Colonel Alfred B. William suggestion of Colonel Alfred B. William, the *Thorna Leader*, who is a member and secretary of the board of management of the institution, it was decided to extend the work among the Afro-Americans. Through the recommendation of the Rev. Sara Sturgeon the secretary of the Young Men's Christian society than whom no Afro-American in Richmond is more favorably known and highly respected by the whites, Mr. A. D. Daly was appointed to look out for the colony work of the society. Young men capable and reliable young Afro-Americans and its doing a great work. The first month of his work he met thirty-one men at the penitentiary gate, and in every case a straightforward talk was given the ex-porisoner, and if he was going to leave the train, as in the case of his whirl ticket purchased to his destination, and impressed to believe that the society was his friend and wanted him to become a good citizen. When the man stopped here a place of labor was secured, and placed him in the purpose of keeping in touch with the society bringing him under the influence of the law-abiding Afro-Americans of our city. Each month the work has gone gradually along new and hitherto untried, it is done with success and is making, out of what good be a dangerous criminal element, good and useful members of society. That this case has excited unusual interest is evidenced by the fact that Federal Judge Edmund Waddill, Jr., in a case involving the carlson airlines, he has assigned the receivers for the company, has issued an order defining the powers of the conductors, regulations for the setting of passengers and how arrests are to be made, and the legislation of Virginia in obedience to a substrate white element of posthouse politicians and demagogues who stand always ready to push stumbling stories of American willow of progressive Afro-American writing is seen on the wall in this order of Judge Waddill and the quiet acquiescence therein by the receivers of the company. American citizens of representative Afro-American citizens was held at the Young Men's Christian Association last Friday evening, to take under consideration the advisability of holding a "Richmond Negro at the Jumstown Expositor Major George St. Julien Stephens acted as secretary. There was a full and free discussion of the question, Drs. W. F. Graham, Z. D. Lewis, D. Webster D. Baker, W. F. Donny, George W. Loyle, Captain W. I. Johnson, R. T. Hill and others joining in the discussion. By an unanimous vote, Monday, August 12, was agreed upon as Richmond Negro Day" chairman; George St. Julien Stephens, secretary; Dr. W. H. Smith, treasurer; Dr. P. H. Ramsey, Major I. J. Miller, Benjamin Jackson, T. H. Jackson and A. O. Moon were appointed a committee to complete arrangements for a proper observance of the day. The work of the conference will have the support of the leading Afro-American business and pro-people of the city, the pastors of the churches and the best element of the race. At the meeting of Capitol City Lodge of the I. B. P. O. Elks last Tuesday the senator, who was examiner, was present, who, with the assistance of District Deputy, Walker W. REV. A. E. EDWARDS Pastor of Fifth Street Church Loses Position by Ten Votes—Social and Personal Notes. RICHMOND, August 6—By a vote of 327 to 317 the longstanding troubles between the Rev. Dr. A. E. Edwards and a portion of the congregation of Fifth street Baptist church and another portion of the congregation on the opposite side were brought to a close last Monday night, when the opposition to the pastor won by the narrow margin of ten votes. The meeting was held under an order of Judge. Griman of the Chancery Court, who had appointed the Rev. Dr. A. J. Willingham (white) to preside over the meeting. The meeting, which was a stormy one, lasted from 8:30 p. m. till 4:00 a. m. Dr. Edwards will quietly assemble in the decision reached, although he and his faction contend that the clerk in making up the roll of the church membership had left off the names of fully one hundred and twenty-five members were present, and they been allowed to vote should have voted for the retention of the master. A peculiar incident in connection with the meeting was the refusal of the sexton, Mr. Edward Coleman, to admit your correspondent, who is on the reportorial staff of a white newspaper, because he was not a communicant of the church, while he readily admitted white reporters. It is believed that both factions will get together and work for the spiritual as well as the financial upbuilding of the work. Already the young people of the church, the Sunday school workers, under the lead of Professor B. H. Foyton, are getting things in shape for the sending of a large delegation to the National Baptist Convention, which meets in Lynchburg the latter part of the present month. Under the lead of the minister in charge, Rev. Charles L. Somers, the congregation of St. Philip's Protestant Episcopal church, are giving the church chapel house and factory a thorough overhauling and renovation preparation to the opening of the general convention in October. The Rev. Mr. Somers has done a great work here in the three years he has been in charge of St. Philip's, having paid off a debt of more than two thousand dollars on the church building, at the same time doing needed repairs and keeping the dental expanse in good condition being out of the hope of the congregation that it may be consecrated during the meeting of the general convention. Afro-American churchmen of Richmond heartily favor the proposition before the church, the petition to the general convention of 1894, from the "Conference of Colored Workers," requesting the general convention to organize the Afro-American congregations of any two or more dioceses, which may consist of it, into a missionary district. Afro-American churchmen, processing the same rights and beliefs as are at present by the territorial mission bishop, reporting directly to the board of missions and subject to the jurisdiction of the general convention. There are many good reasons why we do here in Virginia wish this change chief of which it would stimulate us to do greater work, being thrown upon our own responsibilities just as the work is being done by the several branches of the African Methodist church. Among the Afro-American church there is most excellent material from which to choose and it strong men in the Rev. Dr. George P. Bragg of Baltimore and Archdeacon George P. Bragg of Arkansas are selected, great progress will be made in church work among Afro-Americans. The Afro-American people of Raleigh are enthusiastic over the proposed Raleigh Negro Day at the Jamestown Exposition. Committees have been appointed looking to the warring out of the arrangements planned to make the day a success. The St. Luke and True Reformer organizations are lending their authority to add to the success of the movement. Professor Charles E. Mitchell of the West Virginia Colored Institute passed through the city last week on tour to the Jamestown Exposition.

MANDO. American's Most Named Musical Artist, Instructor and Companer. Albert F. Mando has come to be recognized as the leading colored musician, director and composer, through long years of hard study and faithful work in perfecting himself in his chosen profession. His music is familiar to all. Personally he is known to a large part of the population of New York, and his reputation has been spread broadcast through the country wherever good music is appreciated. From his personality it seems certain that he would have made as great a success in any other walk of life had he chosen some other than music. Honored by musical societies at home and abroad and without regard to nationality or color, he stands unique among our colored writers and pulvers of music. Professor Mundo is of Spanish descent, was born June 18, 1846, at Troy, N. Y. His father was Thomas Mundo, his mother Catherine. She died January 28, 1812, at the age of 80 years. Prof. Mundo's first introduction to music was THE MUSICIAN ALBERT F. MANDO by his father, who played a violin for his own amusement and love of music, and from whom the professor inherits his talents. The fur-faced Hollinsville Institute saw him as a boy, the first of our race to enter it. He played the piano for three years while a student, being the only one qualified among 2900 white students. He graduated and qual- ified to teach school. There was a call for teachers from the Southland, for the Negro had just been made, and in 1958 Professor Mandoe then a young man, came to New York with the intention of following his profession of teaching. He passed the examination of the Freedman's Board as a teacher, but changed his mind, and where the South lost, New York gained. His musical ability manifested itself early, and when yet a youth, he took twenty-four vocal lessons and could read music of the most difficult kind at sight. His many features studied were under Professor John T. Krause. Professor John T. Douglas of this city was his instructor on the violin. His vocal training was under the late Walter Rulkley of Lansingburg, N. Y. Harmony and theory were studied under Professor Schumann of New York. He taught music in the white churches and Sunday schools of Lansingburg and was choirmaster of Shibish Presbyterian church of which Rev. H. H. Garnett was the professor. Professor Mantle opened the Mozart Conservatory of Music in this city, in 1890, the only one of its kind in the city. State or country, under the direction of a colored musician. His pupils are among many of the best leading music families in this city, many of whom are at present playing in the leading orchestras and theatres. Populating the ensemble class obtain the practice of orchestral playing and musical business. He has made classic music a specialty for many years, and as a violinist and conductor stands in the head of his race. He perhaps is the only Negro whose general ability as a musician is recognized by the masters of the second of music. He generates and encourages the Technicolor Thomas of his race, and it can be truly said that his efforts for the higher education in classic music entitle him to even greater distinction. As a composer his works have taken high rank on account of their brilliance and rhythm. He is the author of the "Carnival," "The Grand Festival," and many other works of great merit and through his compositions have touched the lives of classic concert music and a peculiar taste and interest in them. From white musicians and composers he has received the very highest tributes and praise. He is an honorary member of the Society Universelle Lyrique of Paris, Milan, London, Berlin and New York. He was selected for the honor by the late Munich Gram the greatest American opera managers. He has been presented by the society with a set books consisting of five volumes, consisting all the great operas. These books are valued at $E.00 and were bound especially for Professor Maudie. He is a delegate member of the Music Teachers' National Association which meets at Columbia University, New York city. December 1907, and a member of the People's Symphony Society of New York. He is a lower class musician and takes no stock in "rag time" emphasizing the fact that his talent is to educate the real rather than the feet. The Conservatory Concert Orchestra, which he is also the director and head of, is organized by him in 1856 and has been consisting success. The orchestra has been based on many of the principal holding cities and more than one hundred high-class concerts and perthals have been given, and during the term of years more than 2000 musicians have been instructed in the instrumental and ballet. The Mande Mouze Conservatory of Music at the pres-sence ranks among the best in the musical art. This orchestra, which has proven its acumen, is composed of selected students of his conservatory of acknowledg-able ability.

More importance will be attached to the chorus by the Afro-American shows the coming season than ever before. Hereafter, the chorus has played an important part in the general make-up of a production; but for the season of 1907-8 there will be given an exhibition of choral work by the Williams and Walker Company, the Ernest Hogan Company and the Cole and Johnson Company that will make some of the managers of the big Broadway productions feel like asking Oscar Hammerstein of the Manhattan Opera House, and Her Courier of the Metropolitan Opera House, for the loan of a number of the best choral shows. As given in the white shows there will be "beauty choruses" than "songing choruses". To quote a well-known Broadway stage manager it is by far easier to get a pretty girl with stylistic grace than it is a chorus girl who possesses fair books and a good voice. Then, too, it should be taken in consideration that the rule of supply and demand should be applied when comparing the choruses in the white and colored shows. The supply has been greater than the demand, relative to securing talent shows, than in securing it in case of demand greater than the supply, where white productions have been concerted. Taking into consideration the natural talent of the Afro-American race as singers, the large number of good ones available throughout the country and the activity displayed by the managers this season as well as the careful selection of members for the chorus this summer, is proof positive that an educator will be made to make the chorus more of a feature than ever before. In his book several Broadway shows in the last week several Broadway shows compared with that I listened to last Friday, which is being put through some strenuous work under the tutorship of Will Marion Cook. According to this well-known music writer and director the best choral work was done by Ernest Hogan's show last season. He modality states, however, that after he is through with the chorus for Williams and Walker "In Bandanna Land," it will be second to none and does not except the Hogan show or any of the white-light musical productions which Ernest Hogan belongs to the author, so far as colored shows are concerned, will be in evidence this season in at least the three shows mentioned above. In that direction the white chorus has the colored ones excelled by far. It has been somewhat difficult to teach the chorus in an Afro-American show how to sing, and at the same time show activity with grass, but they are fast rounding out as singers who are also able to move about the stage, "making every move a picture." For a chorus girl to sing possibly do a little dancing, but note is required of her. You little importance is given a chorus girl or a chorus man to their respective positions. Many members of a chorus think just because they have no speaking parts they are not considered a valuable asset to a show. The owners and managers of productions would not pay salaries, make costumes and pay railroad fares all over the country unless they thought the chorus was something worth a chorus people should remember that the majority of stars in musical shows come from the chorus line and it is by hard work and the value they place on the position that will make them rise from the ranks and succeed in getting in the cast. Ada Ovation Walker is an example for all girls with ambition to shine in the theatrical world to follow. She was one a chorus girl, but tried to be a good one as the result to day there is no better dancing and singing southerly in the stage. Regardless of personal feel there is no manager in good chorus worker down and if he wanted to it would be utterly impossible if the good chorus man or woman determined to go higher in the profession. While dwelling on chorus people and the opportunity they have to rise, I must speak of the "make-up." I notice from time to time used by some chorus girls. None of the Mio American shows are accepted when it comes to some of their members in the chorus looking like talse faces. Too many of them have a desire to come before the footlights looking more like white performers than what they really are. They forget how their bodies look when they need to see a colored show and not a white one, that the more fact of them being colored is the main cause of the theatre being patronized. Sometimes it is hard to recognize the same girl on and off the stage, due to her desire to sing and cater on the stage with an all-white whit-wash makeup. I think it would be a good idea for stage managers to pay more attention to the manager in which some of their chorus girls blend their grease paint and apply their powder. In invariably the daily papers in commenting on a colored show will speak of light compaction of some of the mean bass and I have heard such expressions of the chorus girls' time and time again. As I said before, as the members of colored shows are hired and given employment because they are colored and why should it be that they affect an appearance that often brings forth an impurity as to the social identity.

Boat Capable and Three Are Drowned Boat Down in Storm (16) Newark, August 6.—The joint excursion of St. John's M. E., St. Paul's A. M. E., and the Union Baptist churches of the Oranges, to Boynton Beach, on Friday morning, was a very pleasant affair and largely attended. During the day, however, a drowning accident occurred, which startled all concerned, when it was known that two young men and one woman had been drowned and another woman from Plainfield was rescued from a watery grave. The drowned are Homer Heed, 44 Parrow street; William Gray, 11115 South street; Orange, and Anna Peterson of Plainfield. Eva Heirry of the same place was rescued from the water in a half-drowning condition. Different stories are related as to how the accident occurred, but it seems that a party of young people went out in a rowout on the river and William Gray started to rock the boat. At the same time swells from the ocean, and the couple fell into the little craft and it quickly capized Reed and Gray locked arms in a death struggle and finally both of them went down. Peterson soon become helpless and sank before the rescuers arrived. They did, however, succeed in reaching Eva Henry and her brother, and finally got them to the shore. Immediate steps were taken to rescue the bodies of the drowned, which were secured the same evening, and the Tappansville State University Island. On Saturday morning undertaken J. E. Churchman of Orange conveyed the bodies to their homes. William Welch of 5 Bollivee avenue, running to board a trolley car a few evenings ago at the corner of Jay street and Central avenue, failed to see the approach of the car coming in the opposite direction. He was struck by a trick and dragged the whole width of the street. The calf of his left leg was ground to pulp, his skull fractured and he suffered internal injuries. The young man was conveyed in the ambulance and died on entering the hospital. Mr. Welch is a constrictor of Hepatitis B, the pastor of the Washington street Taherine street, corner Jay street and Central avenue. The police made another raid on Saturday night of the well-known club room kept by William Gains at 70 and 72 Academy street. This has been watched for a long time by the plain clothes men, and a tip was given them on Saturday evening that a game was in progress. The bluescouts surrounded the place and batted in the rear door. The crowd for the game, the majority of them were white. When arranged before the criminal court on Sunday morning the alleged prophet, William Gains, was held in the sum of $1,500 for a hearing, and one Peter Hains, who is said to be the president of the club, was held in the same amount for the same purpose. The others are all held as witnesses for the ground jury, under bounds of $250 each. William Gains to furnish bail for $40 for his appearance, but was refused and he strangely objected being placed in a cell as a common prisoner. He was overruled and took his place with his comrades. Some time ago Gains' place was raided and he was fined $80 at the Higher court, and was let off on probation for two years on condition that he was to pay $200 a week during that time as a guarantee of good behavior. This was a regular contract, but it has all probability he will get an extra sentence for longer time. Miss Kate Burts, 213 Plume Street, is spending her vacation at home this summer. Her sister, also a teacher, is summering at Ashbury Park. The Union excursion to Beilwood Park will occur on Thursday, August 15. This pleasure trip is under the auspices of the three most prominent churches: Bethany Baptist, St John's and St James' Union Street. DOLGLASS LITERARY SOCIETY.

INCIDENTS OF CRIME WAVE. Police Avert Threatened Lycheing in Brooklyn—Other Cases. Romeo Hankins, who resides at 432 Hudson avenue, was arrested, last Thursday night upon the charge of feloniously assaulting Mary Quigley, 14 years old, of 424 Hudson avenue, by attacking her with a cobblestone upon the forehead, resulting in a fracture of the skull. Hankins was in a fight with James Williams at the corner of Myrtle avenue and Navy street. Hankins asserts that William attempted to cut him with a razor, whereupon, to save himself, he picked up a cobblestone and hurled it at his opponent. The stone missed Williams and struck Mary Quigley. Thinking that this was another case of the kind which seems lately to have grown so prevalent, an enraged crowd of two thousand people gathered, ready to lynch Hankins. They slung a rope over the elevated track and would no doubt have been struck by the strenuous efforts of policemen William Green, had it not been for the arrival of other policemen. Robert Anderson, 35 years old, husband of a white woman, was before Magistrate Dooley in the Butler street police court last Thursday, on a charge of criminal assault on Igna Johnson, a 12-year-old white girl. The police learned of the case through a letter written to the Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Children. The girl's parents, it appears, were trying to keep the matter a secret. Anderson's home is at 22 West, 9th street, near Coney Island, but Anderson made himself scarce. According to the police, he was in the Anderson domicile about a month ago. Mrs. Anderson was in court when her husband was arraigned. She announced that she would stick by him. John Willingham, aged 21, of 247 Navy street, was charged with having caused a panic and came near killing a conductor on a Fulton street car in front of the Orpheum theatre last Thursday night. The car was crowded and when a fight started on the rear platform several women were there. There was a boy troubled by an alleged insult to a white women on the car, but it appears that the immediate cause of the trouble was an argument over the payment of fare. Conductor Andrew Sergent tried to make Willingham pay, but after some argument the latter suddenly slung a heavy iron chain and sent it crashing down upon the conductor's head. The conductor was overheated and placed in the custody of a pollenism. Successful Excursion. NYWS, Aug 6. A happier lot of excursionists, than those who went from several places, along the lower Hudson last Thursday to Rayton Beach is rare. It was the union excursion of the A M E Zion churches of Nyack Tarktown and Yankers under the name of the Eynglish Association of Westchester County. It was a remarkably or daily affair. The large threedock steamer Tolkester was chartered for the occasion and arrived at Nyack Wednesday night.

A number of 170 in number and the New Amsterdam band, at Nyakers with 400 more people aboard, made a party of over 700. The boat then proceeded down to Rayton Beach, where a jolly time was enjoyed by all Games were played and a general merry time spent until 6 o'clock, when the Tolkester started on her homeward trip, arriving at Nyack at 11:45 p.m. In other McGowan of the police force of Yankers, who was on duty on the excursion, said that he had been on the force thirty-five days, and all kind of excursionists, but had never seen a more excursion along the river at any other place white in color.

Everybody else gets excited and stays excited in these summer days, including William Jennings Bryan, but President Roosevelt, who filled the world with his talk all the winter days, has spoken nothing "for publication" since he left Washington for Oyster Bay. And the big stick stands in the corner whispering: "There'll be a hot time in the old town" when I begin to talk again. And that teaches us that there is a time for everything, and the wise Japanese peeps around the corner and is also mum. It may be the lull before the storm, or it may not be. Playing to the Gallery. The conflict of authority between the Federal courts, and the courts of North Carolina in construing the railroad rate law, adopted by the State, involves a principle upon which all of the legislation of Congress regulating interstate commerce and combinations in restraint of trade pinches, and especially the Elkins rate law. Indeed, we have as an issue to be decided again "State Rights," which was settled by a bloody war and clinched by the adoption of the Thirteenth Amendment; to the Federal Constitution The Brooklyn Daily Eagle, which usually keeps a cool head in a storm, accuses the President with playing to the gallery in the North Carolina case, where a State law conflicts with Federal laws. The question at bar is simply whether this is a Nation with sufficient power to regulate those affairs which touch all of the people of the country, or whether it is a confederation of weak States without power to protect itself from the exactions of transportation and other combinations in restraint of trade and personal librarians. Are we to accept in our national life the constitutional interpretation of John C. Calhoun, which sighed itself to death at Appomattox, or that of Abraham Lincoln, which placed the Federal Union above the States in such matters of National interests and personal liberty, and which won 1,000,000 human souls to freedom at the sacrifice of priceless human life? The Brooklyn Daily Epic and all papers of its way of thinking may as well understand once for all that the American people are with President Roosevelt on this one question, because he is right and has not turned aside from it, and that they are not with William Jennings Bryan, who is a demagogue without fixed principles and who has persistently played to the gallery in order to win public favor and endorsement at the polls. President Roosevelt's actions in the Brownsville affair and in his attitude in his last message to Congress on the Afro-American have not had our approval, but our condemnation, and yet we favor him and "my policies" rather than any Democrat or his policies now before the American people. What Is Man Anyhow? Mr. W. P. Livingston, in an article in The North American Review, has disposed of the West Indian Negro as summarily as Thomas Dixon, the ministerial misfit, who struts about in space clothed in the lavery of heaven the better to serve the purpose of earth by consigning him to a place of Nature not ordained by God. And Mr. Livingston thinks he knows it all. And there are others. When, however, he runs up against the stonewall of wisdom and not of knowledge, he will not know whether he is going or coming. Mr. Livingston very much agrees with many of the learned men of his time that the Negro people have their place, which is the one that man and not God ordained for him, but his attempt to define what this place of negation without the context of the Negro is one of those mistakes of man which provoked the Great Reformation, and brought Bonaparte out of the obscurity of Corsica to be the agent of God in bringing about these reforms in society and government which are still working in all land. Mr Livingston thinks that the mixed Negroes of the West Indies are a better and higher type of man than the pure-blooded ones, and there are a great many people in this country who believe the same nonsense; but if Mr Livingston was suddenly called upon to separate the pure blooded from the mixed Africans he would have just as much trouble as if he should apply the same logic to the pure-blooded and mixed-blooded white people of all lands. All things show. peoples of all lands. All skies look alike, if you have eyes to see which is which, and all blood looks alike by the same token. The race problem everywhere is solving itself by the inter-commingling of blood, and it is not in the power of man to interrupt the purpose of God in this matter, any more than it is in any other of the phenomena of nature about which he thinks he knows a great deal and about which he really knows nothing. Where on all of the earth is to be found a worse mix-up of the three sons of Noah than in the United States? Now let the wise men of the land, who sit at their own feet and seek inspiration out of their toes, answer that, and echo will reply; but if they seek it out of their heads they will get the correct answer out of their tongues. Capital and Labor Issue Agents. The determination of trade unionism arbitrarily to dominate capitalism, and to fix wage rates on individual rather than merit service, is as much robbery of consumers and employers as the arbitrary exactions of productive capital in overcharges of rates, rebates, prices, and the like, to the strangulation of competition and therefore of proper business conditions. However the matter he regarded, the consumer has to pay for the destructive conflict between capital and labor. This latter are now fairly groused in all lands, and they are wise who will read "the handwriting on the wall." What is needed and must come to pass is even-handed justice to all—to invested capital, to producing capital and to the vast army of consumers. The Federal electorate and Genius of Evolution demand so much and will accept no less. The party and candidates of party which disregard this principle of Divine equity will be crushed by the relentless car of Juggernaut. Awarding to the New York dailies the word of the Governor of Florida was not good in the Jefferson Market court last week for the parole of A. J. Angle of Florida, who was charged with having cut an elevator boy with a punikine on Sunday night at the Herald Square Hotel. The Governor was not present, Major Dapray presented the court with the compliments of Napoleon Bonaparte, Governor of Florida, and asked Magistrate Barlow to parole his friend, Mr. Angle, on the word of Gov. Broward that Mr. Angle would be on hand when wanted. The judge said he would have to have New York real estate for $1,000. Mr. Angle got bail. All of which goes to show that notwithstanding the insidious methods adopted to push the Southern propaganda in the great metropolis, there is still a chance for justice before the law. In the Federal Court at Chicago last week Judge Landis imposed a fine of $29,240,000 on the Standard Oil Company for violating the Anti-Trust law in 1,462 counts. The Standard Oil Company can afford to return in this way some of the money it has unjustly expected from the people in roles and otherwise to crush competition, as it has got net earnings in twenty-four years of $779,000,000, and in paying it will set an example to be headed in the long run by all those in high places who have taken undue advantage of the people. But what will the Appellate Federal Courts do? The people want corporations of all sorts properly regulated by the Congress, in the end that evenhanded justice may be done to all; and they will get what they want. "There is a Divinity that shapes our ends rough, how them as we may, and there is also a Divinity that shapes our ends rough, how them as we may. And that's no joke. When the American school teachers in the Philippines begin to teach the Philippines how to get out of the soil what there is in it in a scientific way, and Congress takes the tariff if Philippine exports there will be some results worth while. There would be no need of a competing telephone system in Greater New York if the existing company were properly regulated by law and compelled to save the public on a basis of actual capital invested at five per cent per annum over operating expenses. All such public utilities should be regulated by law, and violation of the law should carry with it no time at all, but imprisonment for convicted offenders.

In the new luxury Walk, the Flush. hope most Walk the Plank. DEMURGE. I. T. August 8.—The approaching meeting of the National Negro Business League at Topeka, August 14, offers a splendid opportunity for a trip to this wonderful rich and growing country, and it is with a desire to interest your readers that this letter is written. To begin with, let it be clearly understood that the delay in the development of the Indian Territory came not from the fact that the soil was unproductive, the climate bad, but solely from the fact that this land was held in common by the various tribes. The action of Congress and the councils of the five civilized tribes, followed by the allotment of lands in severity, have completely changed the situation and at the present time land is being purchased, railroads and towns built, gas and oil wells drilled, and an era of development inaugurated, the equal of which has never been seen even in this land of surprises. Very many Negroes, chiefly from the Southern States, have come in and done well, but we must have more and must have them from all sections. To the farmer there is the inducement of cheap lands upon which may be grown the products of the Northern States and the southernmost northern products. The crop of peaches, apples and pears now on the trees will convince anyone as to the possibilities of fruit, raising. The climate is about like the temperate climate of further north it sounds strange to speak of being able to plow each month of the year. Good water for drinking purposes may be had in wells, twenty to forty feet from the river. A village, a district, is found throughout the country. To the business man with some money much pluck and a fair degree of common sense here indeed is the chance of a lifetime. In many parts of the State of New York, business men holdings of lands by Creek freeway and Negroes, who have purchased, insured permanency of a class of people that will remain and form the nucleus upon which solid business enterprises may be built. General stock of merchandise, machinery and equipment is owned by many other branches of business may be opened in localities which are just beginning to be developed. No great amount of capital is needed at first, but careful attention to the wants of the people and businessmen is required. Years, plus the average business man firmly on his feet. The real estate, loan and banking business offers unqualified opportunities to the man of keen percept and quick action. The professional man has here a rich field, both as to knowledge and those able to pay for services rendered. When Statehood is consummated there will be a cell for hundreds of thoroughly prepared Negro teachers, and since the Congress has made ample provision for them, we must have the best, teachers and normal school and colleges have prepared. These, briefly, are some of the facts we hope to get before the Negroes of the country, and in Upper Canada this hand of tomorrow who had originally from every State in the Union. They are here bustling and for the most part making good. They will choosefully give information and ideas of conditions. But we want personal visits from as many as possible. Many in the older States are established and do not care to begin again, but in every community there are young people looking for making a change to all such an urgent invitation is given to investigate. Now, a word as to conditions social and political. The writer is Northern born and record and has therefore from time to time received not a theory but a theory confronts him, he has wished decided to want more energy than possible. The country is rough rather than tough. Social conditions are in a chaotic state and the future depends solely upon the amount of energy directed now. Politically, the same effort to eliminate the Negro that obtains North, South East and West manifest itself here. Without any allusion to political parties, we would like to impress upon the reader this fact that the free black situation is not and far apart of the heder prevalent in Oklahoma. The provisions of the enabling act and the fact that so much of the landed interests are held by Negroes will always present the ultra Southern from embodying the ultra Southern from embodying the states of the new State. Here the two waves of conducting ideas ideal meets. The proximity of the Territory to Texas and Arkansas gave the possibility of sectionalism the early advantage; but the men who do things alone are more likely to come from the other direction, and while the process may appear slow, herbariism must walk the plank. Here there is the call of the West, the challenge to the progressive Negro who has prepared himself and asks for a man's chance to be a leader, and of the co-inhabitant in his stairs. To the personal knowledge of the teacher there are young Negro men and women in several Northern cities, well qualified from an educational standpoint, and with a strong interest for education in business, compelled to accept mental positions, when if they were only imbued with the spirit of the pioneer and willing to bear a main's port of the burden, they would be able to secure United State by the foundation of an honor able and useful career. There are homes and opportunities in the Creek Nation alone for 50,000 indi- vations progressive or host of all come and be on consort. J.E. POURTER. Jersey City Notice. Mrs. A. J.

August 5.—The Institute for Colored Youth, Cheyney, Pa., closed its third summer session Wednesday, July 31. The institute and bodies of instruction were so open and beneficial that many teachers were sorry when closing time came. Unfortunately the management was confronted by the same problem of lack of accommodation this year as last. A large number Southern teachers who have not had the opportunity for the best professional training are anxious to get such training and show their anxiety by applying for admission to the summer school in num- The Anna Jeanne fund holds out much hope to those engaged in Southern work. They now feel that something of equipment and remuneration will come to their work and thus enable them to work with the children of their life to which they have conserved their lives. But this desire (or professional improvement) is not confined to Southern teachers. The aggressive teachers of the Middle States apply in large numbers, thus showing a strong commitment to the advanced thought along the lines of their work. One who has not come in contact with summer school teachers cannot appreciate the earnestness of effort they put forth. More and more do they seem to realize the great import of their high school education, which does not behold some new effort put forth or some new task done. To meet the demands of such teachers is a problem that rests primarily with the devoted board of management and the faculty of the HSE. That every need might be met and fully satisfied, they are careful to select instructors who combine intelligent preparation with practical experience. In the faculty are represented some of the most experienced instructors: College, Columbia University, Chicago State Normal, University of Pennsylvania and Smith College. Efficiency or the power to do as stressed as the students shown in both the summer and regular courses. The dining hall and dormitory are managed most satisfactorily by graduates of the school. The order and precision with which everything is done are apparent to all who visit the institution. The course of instruction for the summer school includes the manual activities of drawing, domestic art, domestic sciences, card and cardboard construction, woodworking, and woodwork under the academic, English, geography, nature study and geometric under professional, general pedagogy, primary methods and graded Sunday school work. Every subject that calls for a course is taught. In domestic science the food when cooked is served in the model dinner room, fitted up for this purpose. Several of those taking the course occupy seats at the table and one of the number is the one of the instructor. When it is over criticism are called for by the instructor and many helpful directions are given. A primary method a class of children is present each day for the purpose of illustrating to the teachers how a subject should be taught. The regular work of the summer course was supplemented by a series of special courses in the professors Spind, Superintendent of Schools, New Castle county, Del. These became both interesting and instructive. Prof Spind is widely known as a writer and lecturer on all phases of The school was especially favored this summer in having had a number of distinguished visitors, among them being Dr. James Keeing, president of the church; Dr. Isaac Sharpless, president of Havenford and member of the Advisory Board of the Institute for Colored Youth; Prof. H. Keeing, editor of the book; Prof. H. Keeing, H. Sunny the principal of the Row's Restoratory School; Virginia Henry Lincoln Johnson Eas. of Atlanta Ga. Prof. Goss, Houston, Texas, and Dr. Talbot Williams, editor of the *Philadelphia* Dr. Williams delivered an address to the faculty and teachers that was most helpful in fruitful suggestion and on encouraging in hopeful aspirations. He distinguished characteristics of the Japanese race and holding up their achievements as examples of what disadvantaged races can do. Dr. Williams said in effect that a race would contribute to the world's worth in its achievements, and that each race possessed some quality not possessed by another and which if developed would contribute to the world's worth in its achievements. Dr. Williams said that while the Japanese got what they could from other civilizations, it was all interpreted in terms of their own thought and feelings and modified in such a way that their abilities of cleanliness, sanitation and devotion to homes, schools and country have caused them in a half century from a comparatively unknown to one among the most advanced kind. Dr. Williams spoke with an enchaperne born of conviction and sincerity emphasizing the fact as is shown in the life of the Japanese that as with them they have been subjected to substantial progress tests with itself and that the responsibility of proof upifts rests upon its own leader of educational thought, those who are one with it in temperament, sympathy and appreciation words were seeds sown in good ground. The work of the summer school was out on exhibition and photographed. It was inspected by many visitors from India and Europe. The management is now trying to find some way that will enable the next summer to accommodate the hundreds who apply each year, but cannot be received on account of lack of dermatitis.

The outlay when complete will be worth about $150,000. MORE NOT WEATHER POLITICS A New Jersey Editor Palminster Against Taft. From The Brooklyn Daily Eagle. H. W. Hewlett, the jailor-lawyer-editor of *The Navy Yard*, freed his mind verbally this morning upon the manner in which the Negroes generally have been treated by the Republican party. Newlett says he has been a victim of the police which will appear in the next june of the Square Deal denouncing Timothy L. Woodruff and the Republican party for neglect of the Republican colored voters. The Square Deal has just been established in Cranford, N. J., and although a foreign publication so far as this State attorney proposed to show his race the light that was. "I'm a Republican dyed in the wool," said the fanion-lawyer-editor, with great literalism, "but I want to warn the Republican party that unless it accounts for the more serious treatment, there will be more disaffected colored voters at the next election. The Republicans used to think that a Negro could never be anything else than Republican. They have filled us full of a lot of gush about Abraham Lincoln because the one that forced him and his party being that now for forty-two years or so, and it doesn't go now. Why, it was the Republicans that first imported slaves into this country from Africa. They tried slavery here up North, but the Negroes sent them both way cotton didn't, and they sent both way Down, where the Democrat live. "Now, the Democratic party has all always opposed any measure giving equal rights to the Negroes, but they were accorded better treatment under Grover Law, and they were under Roosevelt. Roosevelt is handling a lot of jobs to us right now, but he has shown his attitude toward us in the Brownies affair. We would not have had anything to say in that connection either. If the Fourth Cavalry had been in charge of the crime than that alleged to have been performed by the Negro troops at Brownies, "Foraker is our champion, but he is not presidential timber, because he couldn't get the Southern Republicans. Roosevelt too hot-headed and impulsive, but he is still standing for Taft. My paper, the Square Deal, will support any Republican candidate but Taft; if he is the nominee, I'll stop. And although a Negro can't logically be anything else than a Republican, he has to possess a consideration. I'll turn Roosevelt over to a whole lot of others. We can't be worse treated politically than we are now." FEATURES OF LEAGUE PROGRAM Corresponding Secretary Emmet J. Neff Issue Program for Topkicks Trio.

Growth of the Work Founded by Elizabeth E. Wright From The Boston Transcript The Vouress Industrial School of Denmark was founded on April 18, 1871, in Eichstaff, Denmark, by the architect of Tallabone, Ga., and a graduate of Telegraph Institute. The school is based one and a half miles from the village of Denmark on 400 acres of fertile land, the gift of the late Mahl Vourss, the founder of the school, and paid for two brick and three frame buildings. The entire property is valued at $4,000, and is free of all debt. It is undemolished and has no permanent source of support, but is dependent upon the support of the school. It is the object of the school to furnish education to worthy boys and girls of the rural districts who are willing to work all days on the farm or at some trade and attend might school. Most of the students are very little clothing. This year there has been an enrollment of nearly 400 students, 120 of whom boarded on the campus. There are seventeen teachers and others connected with the work and education. In the death of the principal, which occurred December 14, 1905, the school has sustained a great loss. She raised it the money with which to pay on the work.

SPIRIT OF THE BUSINESS LEAGUE Washington Men to Build a Pleasure Resort and an Industrial Center WASHINGTON, August 6—The spirit of the National Negro Business League has reached Washington at last, and intelligent Afro-Americans are realizing as never before the necessity of training the business and efforts in a business way. The Bureau of Statistics is the only hope for Afro-Americans in the borough of Columbia. The movement among the taxing colored citizens here to purchase 50 to 100 acres of land somewhere down the Potomac River for the purpose of building a city to be named and offered housing to the crystallized into a solid entity, and 250 acres of the best land in Prince George county, Md., have been purchased. The idea is to make it an industrial center as a secure resort. The movement is backed by the city and best-known colored men in the city. Mr. Lewis' Jefferson, manager of the stormer "Jane Moseley," is an active spirit in the project. Speaking of the proposed city, Mr. Jefferson said: "There summer sort somewhere near Washington, the Nation's Capital, where respectable colored people can go and spend a day or a work out in the woods and away from the heat and confinement of the city. They see a place now. On account of race, the people (except servants) are denied admission to all resorts in and around Washington and down the river. The places on the river where the colored expeditionaries are permitted to land have speak of and are not equipped for the experience of pleasure seekers." Mr. Jefferson on continued: "There are something like 100, colored people in Washington, and my past dealings with them as manager of Jane Moseley convince me that they will be more interested inprise their moral and financial support." "The idea is to lay out a modern city with streets and avenues named in honor of our prominent colored citizens. Restrict the selling of lots to only respectable companies who will agree to build a cottage and keep it in the city. There will be a central park with all modern attractions and equipments—amphitheatre, swings, flying Dutchman, a modern hotel for transient guests and villas and cottages for stockholders and owners of lots. A truck farm to supply vegetables, etc. A poultry farm to supply eggs and poultry, and a dairy farm to supply fresh milk and butter. Mr. Jefferson thinks so well of it as a business proposition that he has secured an option on the land by making acreage in Washington is growing in popularity as a convention city. A few years ago the National Afro-American Council met here last year the Young People's Conference, and the National Baptist Convention will meet here bringing to the Nation's Capitol more than 10,000 delegates and members. Where can they go for a day's outing? The services of Mr. W. Sidney Pittman, the well-known architect, have been secured to design the new city. In addition to drawing a plan for the laying of the city, Pittman will design the amphitheater, the ball courts, the new hotel and cottages, Mr. Pittman is best known as the architect whose designs for the Negro Building at the Jamestown Exhibition was selected. The city is a competition, and of which mention was made in the last issue of the paper. OHIO COMMITTEE OUT FOR TAFT. Foraker's Plan for Non-Action Rejected by 15 to 6. Cottman, S. O. July 20. By a vote of 15 to 15 the Republican State Central Committee to day adopted a resolution declaring for Secretary of War Taft for the Republican Presidential nomination in the State. The action was the climax of a long and strenuous fight between the Taft and the Duck*Foraker elements of the party in the State. The resolution declaring for Taft was made after the time of a statement made before the committee by R. M. Motoy of Cohoston, that Senator Foraker, a view of his open letter issued last night, was to be considered a candidate for President. Taft people take credit for having tacked on at the end of the resolution a complimentary notice for Senators Foraker and Dick. The population follows "The it is resolved by the Republican State Committee of Ohio That we believe the great majority of the people of Ohio convicted of the high character, abuse and distinguished services of Senator Howard Taft be presented to the Presidency, and further, we declare that the Republicans of Ohio overwhighly desire that the name of the Hon William Howard Taft be presented to the President and that the Republicans of Ohio States be invited to cooperate with the Republicans of Ohio to secure his nomination, but he is further declare that The Senate should be informed that the Republicans of Ohio are opposed to the elimination from public life of Senator Forsaker and Dick, where services the party and State are distinguished by ability and wisdom and participation."

Archbishop Desires Them to Learn to Live for Their Country. MANHATTAN July 20, The Most Rev J. J. Harty, Archbishop of Manila, said today. The need of the day is honest patient, humble labor. I want the people to be employed to possess modest farms and to have money in the bank. The Filipinos have been ready to die for their country. They should love for her develop her resources and make her the garden of the Philippines. The Americans have welcome the Archbishop as the highest type of citizen and promoter of the welfare of the Philippines. The Business League meeting at Topokan, August 14, promises to be an interesting and instructive as well as pleasurable gathering of the only organization of its kind among the Afro-American people. PHILIPPINES ELECTION QUEST MANILA, July 20.—The election in the Philippines to-day passed off peacefully. The full results will not be known for about three weeks. The early returns seem to indicate that the government is in immediate independence, as opposed to the Progressistas, the party satisfied with American rule, have won the day. Incomplete returns from the provinces are these results: Thirty-one Nationalist, Progresistas, 8 Independents, and 1 Catholic. All the provinces, of which there are fifty, had candidates excepting Hengque, Lepanto-Bonte, Suvae, and others. At the majority of the population in these provinces, who would otherwise be entitled to vote, are non-Christian, they were not entitled to representation in the Assembly. These number sixteen, 58 candidates distributed as follows: Nationalist, 68; Progressistas, 33; Independents, 46; Immediatestas, 23; Catholic candidates, so called, including five priests of Cebu Island, 8; Independents, 49; Alphonso, 8; Bishop Before the election it was the general belief that the Progressistes were the best organized. "They had only one candidate in each district, whereas the Nationalists had two candidates in several of the districts. The platform of the Progressistes, in demanding immediate independence and reduction of the salaries of American officers. The Progressistes advocate good roads, readjustment of the tariff, wider public education and the enforcement of sanitary laws. "We will willingly wait until Uncle Sam is ready to grant independence." The Progressistas had something resembling a party organization, but the others were loose aggregations resembling bands devoted to some idea. Their candidates were chiefly self-appointed, here being members of the activist organizing committees to put them before the people. The total registration in Manila was 7,927. The total vote was 7,250. Many conservatives and representative merchants did not vote, being satisfied with the present administration. A large proportion of voters belong to the barely qualified class. Incomplete returns indicate that not 2 per cent of the civilized population registered. Probably the total vote will be increased in municipal elections of 1903, when 110,000 registered and 118,000 voted, although the suffrage has been unchanged since then and the Trabalo law, transitional to Trabalo and Iocano, was distributed thoroughly.

Referring to the obituary of Captain William Budd in The Sun of July 31, he was a unskilled man in saying that he was the first officer to command a crew of Negroes. No doubt the writer had in mind the river expedition composed of colored troops which Captain Rud accompanied with his two guns from his own ship. This expedition, which was undertaken to break up and dislodge a camp of Confederate soldiers, was a very important one as it settled conclusively and affirmed the military circles whether the Negro would fight or not. For the first time under fire these raw, unisoned troops behaved in such a soldierly manner as to win the commendation of the officers of the army and navy who directed their movements. Captain Bould once expressed his regret to the writer that he did not "embalm" in his official report the name of the pilot who was killed and exposed to the constant fire of the Confederates from the banks of the stream, directed the pilot from the roof of the protected pilot house as to the pilot who was killed and exposed to the perilous position in this deadly open, the old Negro escaped with our serious injury. It may be of interest to mention the fact that Captain Bould who discovered and raised the famous yacht America, which on the breaking out of the Civil War had been converted into a blockade runner and had been sunk in the United States Government. After being used by the navy she was sold at public auction to General Butler. By the will of the late Isidor Wormer Taskejne Institute benefits by $1,000, as does the Roman Catholic Orphan Asylum. These two institutions are the only ones not Hebraic which were remembered by the restitor and it must be attribed to the high estimation in which the restitor is skewed Institute. Mr Wormer was a member of the well known New York banking firm. His estate is valued at $1,320,000. Afro-American Business on Firm Footing THE COREY INSTITUTE A Leader in the Crab Industry—Carpenter and Builders' Supply Store—Chas. Bell & Co., Tailors Postmouth, August 6. Having arrounded very great interest, and, it is to be hoped, a healthy interest in the character of the letters now being furnished by your correspondent, I am continuing along the same lines. Mr. E. W. Darden, successor to W. Darden & Son, conducts the leading crab industry in Tidewater, Mr. Darden's father established the business, over a quarter of a century ago, and by honesty, with a veracity of true business methods, has taken rank as the leader of this line. How well he has succeeded is shown by the following figures: In a business year of seven months he handles over 3,000 He has an agency at Richmond and at Petersburg, making daily shipments to each place. One of the brightest features of this business is that Mr. Darden employs over fifty people as pickers, helpers, cooks and peddlers with a weekly roster of customers. A substantial help to many of the race. Mr. Darden is a young man on the right side of 30, and has the most handsome residence in Brighton, a suburb, which is shared by a charming wife and four children. It is not hard to see that Mr. Darden is forging ahead and wiping away the shame that baneful bugaboo "race presidents." It is well-nigh certain that one can readily distinguish the place of business conducted by the Afro-American, firstly, by the outside appearance; secondly, the condition of the interior; and chiefly by the goods capers owned, ever, such is the case of the business conducted by Messrs. Holly & Ferry; hardware; carpenters; and builders; applies, and an up-to-date 5 and 10-cent counter of useful notions and novels. One cannot help being impressed from the handsome two-story brick building. Councillor Cooke streets, and note the well-arranged stock and neat display of crockery and glassware. Mr. Pierce, the senior member of the firm, is a stepson of Mr. Holly. He is an inspring and deal up-to-date Afro-American. In his early twenties, he owned a business which was evidenced by the decision to buy the land and build his store for cash and placing therein a stock of $1,500 cash. The motto: "Goods as good as the least; prices as cheap as the cheapest." Shoot draw to these men the undivided group of businessmen. Corey Memorial Institute, named for Dr. Charles H. Corey, president of Richmond Institute for 30 years, was chartered September, 1906, for the literary and Christian education of Afro-American courthouse is supported by the Bank of Richmond, a federally funded Va.

Mr. Bell is a practical workman, having a Hampton apartment. They carry a full line of pointers and domestic weavers, trimming and everything pertaining to the merchant tailoring business. Business is in a flourishing state, and Mr. Bell represents the back end of the business. Here is a splendid opportunity for the products of our numerous training schools. He also states that it is well high impossible to get a bad job to apprentice to a tailor, and that the host of young boys living around this streets and dives of iniquity, preferably to/learning how to become useful citizen, he is compelled to ask himself: either are they drifting? Bell & Company are the climbers. M. Zion Japstin church. J. Maurice Armistead. Dr. D. pastor, was organized in 1861. The present structure was erected in 1881.

Dr. Armistead has served as pastor twenty years, was given in this column previously, has done a world of good. M. H. HACKSON. BROOKLYN VOTERS RESTIVE. Name Old Cry About Race Being Inherited in Distribution of Patronage. A reliable. Brooklyn daily newspaper ventures the assertion that when the Hon. Timothy L. Woodruff returns to the colony, he explains to the colored Republicans of the First Assembly District why he has not handed out to them any of the succulent political plums which they say he has been bestowing lavishly upon the white men. Dr. F. M. Jacobs, a member of the Republican General Committee from the First Assembly District, and the only colored member of the committee, is quoted as saying, "I had good to do some thing done, but every time I do something approached offered some subterfuge. Each would say, 'I will see what I can do,' and that was all there was to it. Politics was narrowed down these days to an interest in rewarding for his services while the colored worker, who is as good as he, and is worthy of his fire, receives no reward. I don't want anything in politics, but I want to be as dumb as an oyster and therefore as a worker of the labor and head working politicians are considered." "It is a fact that the feeling of the colored epitaph as learned by daily contact and conversation is becoming more and more omnious and presages a particular attitude toward the thoughtful and comparative men whose political leadership especially needy at this time at apparent breaking up of the raceyalty to the party of its friends and of Robert E. Wadell, president of the Art Assembly District Colored Republ Club, said: "The situation is such the colored voters that whatever country to be done to give a clear and unambiguous feeling toward the local party be done and at once. Then it rshould be our duty to inform the leaders that it is unjust for them to expect us to bring about the same degree of success and grand victories we have won in the past. For one I'm tired of the colored leaders not being consulted as to candidates, especially when a leading factor. I am also tired of being called upon to vote for party candidates regardless of their prejudices against the Negro. SERMONS FOR WAITERS Grand. Union Employees Hear Sermons in Dining Room.

TWO HURT IN RACE RIOT How Over a Ref Stairs Big Fight in Harlem. A fight between a Negro and a white man over the result of a bet on a baseball game played at Olympia Field Fifth Street, between 13:30 and 13:57th streets. Sunday, best bet to a pit in which scores were bent and two persons injured so seriously that they may die. As a result of more than an hour's bombardment from rock and wind, 13:58th Street was hit by a pit. John McCarthy and Matthew Marthorn, both white in the Harlem Hospital with fractured skulls, Simon Mocano, collared in the hospital bed, were there. The pitcher's pointers were catched out and after fighting a way to the center of the mob arrested all taking part in the melee whom they could lay hands on. On several of the prisoners' brace knuckles and rappers were found. In the night court were held in $1000 bail for each trial.

JACKSON & BEEKAM, Props. 108 West 30th Street J. D. Ballard a Member. ANSWER PARK, August 6. The thirty-second annual convention of the New Jersey Dental Society was held during the latter part of July. A feature of one of the morning sessions was the election of thirty-two members, including Dr. John Baldair, Dr. Robert Orange, and Dr. Ballard. The name was called with the others there was a single objection which at once precipitated an argument on a motion to elect the applicants en masse. It was evident, however, that the great majority of dentists in the meeting room was with the applicant. Dr. Stockton said if the only objection to Dr. Ballard was his color, he thought there should be no distinction in the vote. He was decided finally to vote for the majority of dentists in the character that the names should be voted on separately. The proposition was accepted and gave the opportunity to Dr. Ballard's sponsors to testify to his high standing, professional ability and personal integrity. Richards and Fisher of the same town. Each gave glowing triumph to the character and worth of, Dr. Ballard. Dr. Adams said the applicant was brought up and educated to the profession in his own office and had shown marked ability. It appeared further that Dr. Ballard was a member of the present grand jury of Orange, and that his standing in the community in which he resided was above reproach. When the ballard was taken it was fainted. Dr. Ballard was elected by an overwhelming majority, only two negative votes being counted. Autonomement of the result was received with applause.

Spending Pennies and Receiving Dollars Will be the net result ofurchasing one or more of the 232 lots which we are now offering for sale at West New Brighton, Staten Island, First Ward, Borough of Richmond. WEST NEW BRIGHTON is the most exclusive residential section of Staten Island, commanding an excellent view of New York Bay and the surrounding country. West New Brighton is just thirty-five minutes from the Battery via the new Municipal $5,000,000 Ferry. Trolleys pass this property. Besides this, the property is well situated, nice high ground, good drainage, and has all the improvements, such as sewer, water, gas, electric lights, macadamized streets, excellent schools, churches of all denominations, and social life not to be found in the city, where one does not know his neighbor across the hall. This is a very desirable place for residence on account of its accessibility and its surroundings. Considering its nearness to the Borough of Manhattan, it is perhaps a surprising statement that the climate of Staten Island is radically different from that of Manhattan. The air is possessed of invigorating properties, the effect of which is felt in the first hour. The explanation is not far to seek. The ocean and the beautiful hills of Staten Island perform the selected tasks. Here instead of bricks and mortar, radiating at night their accumulated heat of the day, the trees and shrubs and well-kept lawns send forth their cool fragrance, as a tonic to the tired person. New York has all the population it can hold, rentals have increased out of all proportion to the accommodations furnished, and the flat dweller has been compelled to turn to outside territory to secure a suitable home. Hence all suburban localities have been benefited by Manhattan's prosperity, but none to such a remarkable extent, nor with such infinite possibilities as Staten Island. Remember there are only 232 of these lots, and we are selling them for $250 to $500 each, which does not represent a half of their real value. We will make terms to suit the purchaser, therefore be quick and write, or phone.

BRYAN'S RETREAT The Democratic Presididator Bills Up on Government Ownership of Railroads Issue, and His Initiative and Referendum Issue Having Been Repudiated He Is New Imperial. From The New York World. Wednesday, Aug. 20, 1908, William Jennings-Bryan arrived in New York from a trip around the world. He was greeted by delegations of Democrats from every section of the country and hailed as the next Democratic candidate for President. The night after Mr. Bryan's arrival he made a appeal to an immense audience Madison Square Garden, in which he elaborated his policy of government ownership of railroads, defined a dozen or so other issues and introduced new elements of discord into an already discordant party. In an editorial printed the morning before Mr. Bryan's speech The World warned the Democrats of the country against the folly and stupidity of their performance and the long-term closing the door of opportunity upon themselves two years in advance of the campaign. It told Mr. Bryan frankly that his railroad policy was "the most propositional theory of government ownership that was ever promulgated for a democracy—a scheme of State socialism, also revolutionary." It informed the Bryan presidential demonstration in New York as "the most mysterious blind pool ever organized by misguided politicians"; as the "most impolite, foolish abdication of power on the part of a great political organization ever recorded in the history of the United States." We had no expectation that the warning and protest would make an imminent impression on Mr. Bryan or his enthusiastic followers, and we were not deceived. Mr. Bryan made his government ownership speech; all the shouters applauded the Democratic party was committed to government ownership in Mr. Bryan's discretion and the campaign opened. Saturday, July 20, 1907, 10 months and 22 days after the Madison Square Garden speech, Mr. Bryan was immediately commissioned in a formal statement he says: "Government ownership is not an immediate issue. 'A large majority of the people still hope for effective regulation. While they so hope they will not consider government ownership. While many Democrats believe, and Mr. Bryan is one of them that public ownership of the problem will help solve the problem, still those who believe that the public will finally in self-defense be driven to ownership recognize that regulation must be tried under the most favorable circumstances before the masses will be ready to try a more radical approach. If the government is frequently tried within the next year, there is no desire anywhere to make government ownership an issue in 100%." Mr. Bryan has been hearing from the country, since Aug. 30, 1906. He has found that neither the South nor the East will accept his revolutionary policy because it would insignificantly even in the West. So as a concession to the principles of true democracy Mr. Bryan consents to withdraw the issue. He says in effect to the eastern and southern Democrats, "Don't be alarmed; you give me the nomination and I'll concede that the time is not ripe for government ownership." Mr. Bryan has had experience in this kind of political traffic. In 1806 he muzzled his tariff opinions in order not to offend the silver Republicans who were supporting him. In 1800 he agreed that anti-imperialism should be called "the paramount issue" as a concession to such gold Democrats as sought an opportunity to return to the party in spite of the reaffirmation of the Chicago platform. Since the Madison Square Garden speech Mr. Bryan has taken up a new political toy, the initiative and referendum, which he made a cardinal issue of Democratic faith in his Jefferson Day speech at the University of Iowa in his "What is a Democrat?" letter to The World while carefully ignoting the government ownership issue for reasons now better understood. What new populist or socialist issue he will have by 1905 for the Democratic party to subscribe to is beyond the ken of Benjamin Franklin. Run in view of all the circumstances The World may be pardoned if it repeats two questions which it asked in its editorial of Aug. 30, 1905, entitled "Mr Bryan's Rimful Pool." If the American people considered Mr. Bryan unsafe in 1895 and in 1890, where he served, in what respect he is a cooler seller or a wiser leader than he was then: SHAW WILL CASE BEFORE COURT. Ten Eyck Helra are Still Fighting the Shaw Will Care Lawer Alfred C. Cowen, of 206 Broadway, New York city who represents the Ten Eyck bears in the contest that they are making to overthrow the will of Mary E. Shaw, naked briefs on the 30th instant, in which some very interesting legal points are involved. Catherine Ann Ten Eyck died in 1893, and gave Mary E. Shaw the interest in her property for life, with the power to dispose of it to such person, or persons as she might choose by will. The heirs contend that Mary E. Shaw did not properly exercise the power which was repossessed in her by the terms of the Ten Eyck will, that Mrs. Teresa Eyck did not have the right to the Ten Eyck will to dispose of the property to corporations where the Ten Eyck will said that she could give it to "person or persons." Second, that the loestest made to the Tuskegee Normal school was contrary to the statutes of this State, at the death of Mrs. Ten Eyck, in 1932, to the effect, that a foreign corporation could not take real estate by devise in this State at that time, and the fact that that disability imposed on foreign corporations by the statutes of this State having been removed by the passage of an act passed in 1934, giving a foreign corporation the right to take and hold real property in this State, devise property be made by the Tuskegee Institute, as that disability was removed after the death of Mrs. Ten Eyck, or in other words, it being "to post facto law" and thereby does not affect devises made before its passage. Third. That by the terms of Mrs. Ten Eyck's will, Mrs. Shaw did not take the fee, neither did Mrs. Ten Eyck intend that she should take the fee in her estate, but only the interest for life of the feet and her profits therefrom. On the other hand, the fees content that they took in a remainder, and out of a certain amount, subject, however, to being divested by Mrs. Shaw upon her properly exercising the power conferred upon her by Mrs. Ten Eyck. Fourth. If their contention should not be sustained they claim the right to raise the question that Mrs. Shaw left a living husband and that she gave more than half of the estate to corporations, in vioce of New York. That there is no decision in this or any other State, holding that person or persons and a corporation are the same, or synonymous terms.

Near Greenville, Miss., Major Millman spins a plantation of 250 acres, coupled by 20 tenants, some 15 people in all. It is in one of the richest agricultural areas the Milkman plantation in the United States. Up to 1890 he had a white overseer and he was constantly in trouble of his kind or another with his cattle. When the price of cotton dropped, he decided to dispense with the overseer entirely and try a rather during experiment. In short, he planned to trust the Negroes. He got them together and sold. "I am going to try you. I'm going to give you every possible opportunity; if you don't make out, I will go back to the overseeer system." In the sixteen years since then no white man has been on that plantation except as a visitor. The land was treated directly to the overseer and turned what we have both landlord and tenant a reasonable profit. "Did it work?" I asked. "I have never lost one cent," said Major Millaps, "no Negro has ever failed to pay up and you couldn't drive them off the place. When other farmers complain of shortage of labor and tenants, I never have had any trouble. Every Negro on the place owns his own house, barn and is out of debt. Every family has bought or is buying a home in the little town of Leland near by, some of which are comfortably furnished. They are all prosperous and contented. How do you do it? "The never be said, "is to treat the Negro well and give him a chance. I have found that a Negro, like a white man, is most responsive to good treatment. Even a dog responds to kindness." The trouble is that most planters want to make too much money out of the Negro; they charge him too much rent; they make too large profits on the supplies they furnish. I know merchants who expect a return of 50 per cent, on supplies alone. The best Negroes have known are those who are educated. Negroes more educated of the right kind—not less, it will repay us well if we give it to them. It makes better, not worse workers." I asked him about the servant problem. "We never have any trouble." he said. "I apply the same rule to servants as to the farmers. Treat them well, don't talk insultingly of their people before them, don't expect them to do too much work. I believe in treating a Negro with respect. That doesn't matter in the North don't make sums of your white servants." Then he told a striking story of Jefferson Davis. "I got a lesson in the treatment of Negroes when I was a young man returning South from Harvard. I stopped in Washington and called on Jefferson Davis, then United States Senator from Mississippi. We walked down Pennsylvania avenue. Many Negroes bowed to Mr. Davin and he returned the bow. He was a very polite man. I finally said to him that I thought he must have a good many friends among the Negroes. He replied: "I can't allow any Negro to outdo me CONTESTED BY RELATIVES John Wilson Prepared to Hold His Own —Tina and Their Givers. PHILADELPHIA, August 8, 2005—As a reward to the thirty thousand dollars in real estate inherited by John Wilson, an Afro-American, from Mrs. Sarah Waln Hendrickson, an aged Quakerer, counsel for relatives have begun suit to set aside the deed and to prevent the disposal of the property by Wilson. Mrs. Hendrickson, who was member of old and promising family and many of whose Philadelphia's blue血漆, lived in the old Waln homeestead. John Wilson had been in her employ almost since the death of her husband, in 1855. Matthew Jefferson, a Camden lawyer, served upon John Meiers, a nephew of Mrs. Hendrickson, who is also a prominent lawyer, and who drew up the deed of transfer of her property, a rule to be used an injunction should not be issued by Mrs. Meiers and Wilson and Mrs. Ellen Richardson from disposing of the personal property of the dead woman, who Richardson the housekeeper, who has been a member of the still household in the dwelling with Wilson. The rule was granted by Vice-Chancellor Leaming, and was tabled in September 3. Two bills were filed, one applying for the injunction, and the other for the injunction, and the real estate property, comprising the old Waln farm and grist mill and other possessions, is valued at $200. Two weeks ago, when the fact that Wilson had become the possessor of the Waln ancestral home, with its antique furniture, silver plate, family paintings, Mr. Meiers said "that he had drawn up the deed only at the urgent request of his great-grand, Mrs. Hendrickson, who had told him that she was Wilson in wards of her husband, Mrs. Richardson $1,000, which Wilson has paid off. Meiers and Wilson deny that any pressure had been brought to bear upon the aged woman, and that she adopted the expedient of transferring her property to Wilson as the only means of paying her debt to him; there is also a mortgage of $800 upon the property, this Wilson was to pay off. Other relatives of Mrs. Hendrickson, in which she were shocked at her act, it was denied that the Fair first became public that suit for the recovery of the estate was to be made. Wilson will hold his own to the bitter end. "Tips please the customer as well as the waiters," said one of the Afro-American head waiters in a big hotel yesterday. Many a man gratifies his own vanity in giving a tip and thinks he is inducing the waiter to imagine he is either great or rich, when in reality he may be neither of these, but imagines the waiter doesn't know it. Accordingly you will find men who are the most lavish in their tips are not the men of real wealth or established standing. Men of the latter class are fairly generous, kindly and steadfast. They understand their gratitude they receive, and proportion their gratitude to it. The big tips come from the suddenly poor, but temporarily "tooth" person out on a bark. These would present the abolition of the custom of tipping as much as would the waiters themselves. Souvenir post cards of Philadelphia views are for sale everywhere, but they seem lacking in the picturesque pretiness which a dweller in the quiet city would expect to find. Some traveling friends from Detroit and Grand Rapids were staying for a week with me, and they showed me a pretty new wrinkle in the post-card line, and at the same time made me acquainted with the beauties that are to be found among the realities, business houses, etc., of our own people. These friends brought cameras along, also a big supply of prepared postcards. They went everywhere and snapped everything that belonged to Afro-Americans, and then put the pictures on the cards. Some they mailed home to them, while others went to swell them the own collection. The result was a fine collection of the work belonging to All-Americas of this city. Arbithippe Ryan of this city, was in Baltimore Tuesday to attend a meeting of the executive board of the Bureau of Catholic Afro-American and Indian Mission, at the residence of Cardinal Gibbon. Matters relating to the Afro-American Mission were under consideration, and the formal appointment of Rev. J. B. Burke, rector of the Afro-American Catholic church of St. Benedict, the Moor, New York, as director of those missions was made. J. H. GRAY. FRATERNAL NEWS OF THE ELKS. The Two Branches of the Elks in the United States. We have always felt very strongly that if the Caucasian Order of Elks in America paid less attention to inimical legislation, endeavoring to erase sacred Elkdom from the Afro-Americans, their results would prove more favorable and elicit intelligent comments and practicable suggestions for temperament and the development of effective environments in behalf of their fraternal organization. Furthermore, we are thoroughly convinced, however, through the public interest, that the most convincing way for the reading public to become more enlightened on the peculiar condition of the so-called problem of Elkdom in America today, is to read more frequently intelligent comments in connection with the older, especially comments by the Antlers who are necessarily in a position to discuss intelligently the merits and demerits of Elkdom in America generally. The Caucasians who are identified with the fraternity have raised the all-powerful race issue as the "second burden" on the white man's shoulders, and they are as much determined to make it the paramount "problem of the hour," as much as the Southerners are on the "social equality" problem of the Afro-Americans. One unique feature of the Caucasian order as a qualification requisite for membership, is "white male citizenship of the United States of America." This is a written law of their fraternity, however, and not an artifact of people who believe. This law is unintitutional, especially so in this country where the supreme laws of the Nation create every man free and equal. Then, they is illegal and class legislation by an organized band of its citizenship, who are organized for class legislation for fraternal purposes. This law will be tully tested on its demierrs. Our white friends across the border line in Canada have instituted a Canadian Order of Elks, but it is in no way connected with the Caucasian Order in America by affiliation or ritualistic analogy. Moreover, the professions the Philippines, Hawaii and Porto Rico—have lodges, and were represented by delegates in the National Convention of Caucasian Elks at Philadelphia. Thus it can be readily seen that their architectural constituency is rather cosmopolitan than purely American. It proves beyond a shadow of a doubt that the only thing requisite is to be a foreign or an American Caucasian and you are immediately eligible to be a foreigner. The American succeeded in securing the secrets of Elkdom, a "problem" arose on the horizon and a tremendous howl voiced its displeasures in the press. We can say conscientiously that we have the first time to claim them as "brothers" or have we ever endeavored to seek affiliation or recognition, yet we have met some gentlemen among them during our daily vacations, who have extended the hand of brotherly love with fidelity. It has been our pleasure to discuss fraternal matters with individual members relative to our loving cards on their request, have parted in the best of relative to the two branches of the fraternity. It is proper here to mention that we are perfectly satisfied to dwell together as Afro-Americans, and we are justly proud of our race. Its history as a race reads loyalty to the Stars and Stripes, in peace and war. We have never been traitors to our country by adoption and birth. Can the Canonian say as much? The official name of the Canadian Order is the "Benevolent and Protective Order of Elks of the United States of America." The official title is the "Imperial Household and Protective Orders of the World." Any made citizen of the United States of America or of the world, of good moral character and possessing the necessary physical qualifications, between twenty-one (21) and fifty (50) years of age is eligible for membership in our order. We use the word "improved" on account of the many improvements adopted in our rituals and so in importance order in the States of New Jersey, Virginia and New York. A large percentage of the subordinate lodges are incorporated in the different States. Our emblems, insignia and rituals are much different also, and we use more Latin and have more degrees. Our individuality as an order is established and indefatigable. The right to wear our insignia and emblems is undeniable and legal as much so as any other secret or benevolent organization expressed suitably into the of the Caucasians we think their attacks upon our order undignified to us, the least. The unwarrantableness of their race arguments has a tendency to strongly in crease class legislation throughout this country, especially where class legislation is the strongest. They have as much as endeavored to establish such inimical sentiments in Europe, but with very little success. We say the forgoing with all sincerity that if Elddon isn't beneficial and profitable to the Afro-Americans, we say again with candor that it is also unobeficial and unprofitable to the Caucasians. We are all members of the human family, and more, citizens of this great country our citizenship being guarded by the Constitution of the Nation; and therefore, what is good for one class of citizens or race is equally good to all others, especially the Afro-Americans. Ethically, legally and otherwise, we have a better right to use the word "Elk" than any other race of people. No body ever saw a "white elk." All elks are dark in color. Our order will pay $200 for all the "white elks" presented to us between now and Christmas, 1967. The original order, that is, the original members, who are the first elks in New York City. February 10, 1967, have any "Jim Crow" invasions in their by-laws and constitution. This latter clause was added after the good Southerners began to take special interest in the fraternity. We have read the many sensational proclamations, developments and peculiarities of the Philadelphia convention, and some of the various artistic analysis projected by a body of intelligent citizens, which, to our way of thinking, problematical, to the least, more so, when one considers that our representatives inform us of the status of things; and it is a further delight to know that they escaped detection. It is like this, how can they possibly prevent such when Afro-Americans are composed of such a compulsive race of people; and again, we have both races in our fraternity and are in full possession of all of its secrets.

John Sharp Williams More Than Common From The New York Sun Some of the opponents of the Hon. John Sharp Williams have urged that he is too old to be elected a Senator in Congress from Mississippi. They judge him perhaps, by the studied unkemptness and disrepair of his appearance, by the grime and patina of him. He is 52. "As to any mental deceptive" said the man who introduced him at a meeting in Natchez. "You may judge as to shut when you hear him." Those who read his Natchez speech have the same privilege. This passage may be thought to show Mr. Williams' habitual broad-mindedness and reluctance to descend to claptrap and demagogy. "To (The Negro) may have a soul to be saved, and so may other animals. I know the darky is another animal, but I do not hate him. I do not hate the rat, nor the beaver of his snake-taint snake nature, nor the nigger for his nigger nature. God made them both, so let it go at that. Though Why He made either the nigger or the rattlesnake I do not know." One of the speakers, untrue to the Peerless, called Mr. Williams "the great commoner." In truth, it might be hard to find anybody more common. The Treatment of Australian Blacks Horrible. From The Westminster Gazette. A few weeks ago a cable message from Melbourne told us that a sensation had been created by an article written by Dr Gibney, the bishop of Perth, Western Australia, on the treatment of the blacks by the whites in that part of the commonwealth. The full text of the article is to hand by this week's mail. Bishop Gibney says extensive areas in Western Australia are being taken up by settlers with sheep and cattle. The kangaroos, oposums and wild fowl, on which the blacks subsist, are disappearing before this white invasion. If the blacks remain they must starve; if they kill sheep for food, they are chased, captured, chained by the neck to the horrors of sometimes taken to the nearest prison, a journey of a journey of miles. This chaining of the blacks the neck Bishop Gibney rightly denounces as "a relic of barbarism" and "a blot on the reputation of Western Australia."
