2,100 Cases in One Year—Sentence in Adult Case Severe and Effective—Majority of Cases Involve Afro-Americans.
WARNINOTOR. August 26 — "Don't worry, on kids will stand by you, judge," was the cheery attorney given Judge Lindeny of the Denver Juvenile Court by the defendant at the close of a court, during the trial of which the judge simulated concern for himself by trying to furnish in the mind of the youthful or fonder the belief that if defendant failed to lift up to his promise. It is a typical illustration of the spirit of success of the new form of dispensing justice in dealing with youthful law breakers and other offenders. If defendant failed to maintain justice and inflict punishment, the juvenile court idea is assuredly novel while it is also indicative of the new banks of modern civilization. It is to modern criminal justice that the formal, inflexible and hard-faced rules of the old common law; it is more, for it looks beyond the letter and spirit of man-made law to the human heart and instinctive human mind. Its fundamental law is the principle of love, according to Judge Judey; and the administration of justice in accordance with this law is gradually producing marvelous truth and a blessing him that gives him that takes."
The feeling of duty well done, must surely be the solace of the juvenile court judge and his assistants after a day's work in meeting out justice and opportunity to deal in ordering the lives of adult delinquents who are brought before them. Instead of being exponents of more sentimentalism, they are real missionaries in the field of the seamy life where loyalty prohibits the foundations of character and good citizenship, of the reformation of criminals and the prevention of crime exercise both head and heart. The qualities of the stern judge, the gentle leader, the kindly character and good play with similar naturalness and the spirit of good will and carneliness become contagious. The grimest archim and the most hardened delinquent feels the quickening thrill, produces "What's the trouble with you kids now?" "Come here, my boy," or "snitch up." "I am going to give you follows a chance, and I don't want you to disgrace me, any wonders that the guilty are generous and painful of a boy should respond, "Don't worry, us kids will stand by you, judge."
The juvenile court of this city was established a year ago last July in reward of the earnest and prolonged efforts and labor of good citizens and social reformers, who perceived that the criminal, neglected, defective classes could not be effected by the ordinary machinery of the courts. President Roosevelt stamped their efforts with his approval, and, although the efficacy of such establishments was attested by a score or more, Congress had not established a judge to establish and support a
of this character here. A single of its operation has more than made the claims and realized the antities of its promoters, and the results have been accomplished have been the agencies of social reform, reposition and betterment it takes first and of all the courts of the District columbia. It is the most intertwining to the daily life of all classes of the population congress wages each day in answer to summons, street Arabs, whom mischief or petty crime have lauded in the tale of the law, waits for whom homes must be furnished, and bears in arms for whom husbands and fathers neglect or refuse to provide and others whose surroundings and circumstances require the court's ministrations. Quietly and with pointstaking orderly and deliberate, a word of friendly advice here or of stern rebuke there, a line of searching and often sympathetic questioning which relates to all of the circumstances, conditions, and mode of action, with helpful suggestions or sharp reprisal ends—such is the character of the precedings.
During the year the total number of cases handled by this court was 2,102 and this, too, with an inadquate force and a lack of sufficient funds, the Muru-bergeners, whose Impressaries in charity in Charities and Commons, says in a recent article on the juvenile court: "215 function is to discriminate between punishable acts committed by juveniles and ordinary offenders and to order the former to appear in court according to special rules and applies special punishments and remedies. Among the latter probation occupies a prominent place. Washington's juvenile court tills precisely this function. Prevention is therefore diligently imputed into and when found remedies are promptly applied. Of the cases mentioned above, 506 were dismissed, 447 were paroled on probation, in 71 cases sentence was suspended, in 477 cases inquiry into the Board of Children's Guardians and 383 were sent to reform schools. Of the 447 cases paroled on probation only 68 were right before the court the second time, generally resulted in sentences to imprisonment before the court last year, 276 been support of wife. In cases support and enquiry the sentence court is usually severe and officer William H. Dacey, who pre- the juvenile court of the Na-paif, is a remarkable type of whose task it is to save so- from itself. Young and enthui- tleens in labor and broad guaged powers of penetration into the work- of the human heart and human mind, ought to be almost divinely appointed to work in which he is engaged. He is the boy nature, his good and his end always strikes the right trail in the world. A potential movement.
THE NEW YORK AGE.
The juvenile court system of Washington is especially interesting as a study because of its relation to Afro-American offenders. Excepting Baltimore, Washington is perhaps the only other South American city with juvenile criminals and delinquents. Humane agencies for the care and regeneration of the victims of ignorance, poverty and circumstance have made little headway south of the Potomac through State or municipal encouragement. The only agency that has worked on the salt is that rude, inhuman and cruel modes of treatment prevail in dealing with a certain class of offenders of all ages. Thought for good citizenship rarely finds expression and the idea that speeches should answer and not machine the operation which would result incidentally in the improvement of the character and quality of Negro citizenship verges on heresy. That humanity alone appeals for something of the kind is sadly shown by the Asheville Gazette News of August 13: "T deputy Sheriff Williams left yesterday for Raleigh, having in his custody Jeremiah Walker, and Charley Miller, two Negro sentenced to State prison. Miller goes to the penitentiary for the release of his mortal sins. He was a boy eleven years old, goes for fifteen years."
A majority of the cases which come before Judge DeLacy here in Washington involve Afro-Americans; and, before the establishment of his court, cases of this character were the severity of some of the punishments being for Washington truly shocking. Some of the humane and more enlightened police judges did adopt the juvenile court idea a few years before the new court was established, but there was a lack of initiative in theativo work which Judge DeLacy is now doing with such devotion and with such freedom from anything like invisious discrimination. If the Washington police and the citizens generally, could be as free from bias in their attitude toward the juvenile court officer and offender as are the juvenile court officials, including the probation officers, the work of training in right living and of prevention of crime would be an as-sured success. It is interesting, gratifying and great to see that the justice is being worked by these officials and none can have more reason to be grateful to them than those whom a misstep, or unfortunate environment, or poverty have made their beneficiaries. Perhaps, too, this will lead to more improvidence in the juvenile court. Southern Legislature should be petitioned in season and out of season for criminal reformary laws. J. H. Lovie.

AN AFRO-AMERICAN JOURNAL OF NEWS AND OPINION
Dr. W. T. Vernon's Elequent Plan for the Laboring Men Delivered at St. Joseph—Attendance Large and Gratifying
St. Joseph, Mo. August 24.—The Negro Tri-State Expoion, covering the States of Missouri, Kansas and Nebraska, proved to be a plowing success. The exhibits were many, valuable and varied, and reflected immeasurable credit upon the taste, skill and industry of the colored citizens of this section. The attendance was gratifyingly large, and every one is pleased with the happy showing made. The principal address of the exposition season was delivered by Hon. W. T. Vernon, of Kansas, who holds the responsible position of Register of the United States Treasury at Washington, D.C., and of the Vernon institutionally received by the people. He said in part:
"Fellow-citizens: I feel myself more than honored in coming to you as the President Theodore Roosevelt, to address you, my countrymen, and if possible contribute in some measure to the splendid effort by the management of expedition.
"I address myself to day not alone to the members of my race on purely racial questions, but the presence of these labor organizations impels me to speak in some measure concerning labor and the history of labor. Time was in the history of the world when the gentleman was said to be the man who did not work—when labor was associated with indignity; and society, misguided, had no words of praise for the bonae labor laboring that he did. It is clear that the dignity of labor is now acknowledged and that men have learned to view with pity, and more nearly with contempt, that one who lives upon the efforts of others. From a material standpoint, the ability to work is great. That Providence which decreed that man in the sweet of his face should earn his bread, thereby blessed him; for, from this labor of the individual have come strength of body, strength of mind and the illumined soul which idealize the work of man. That discovery in the arts and sciences, his making of books, his inventions, his overcoming nature, are all the result of labor. His annihilation of space, his utilization of man's strength, his comforts of home, and true happiness, are the rewards of noble effort. Mighty cities, marts of trade, harbors—all the accumulation of civilization and an international oneness of purpose which make this hour the admiration of intelligent people. In the sweet of thy face shalt thou eat breed."
"The Negro as a laborer has done his part in this task of world improvement. He was working in that earlier day when civilization had its birthplace with those who were to keep silent vigil on the banks of the Nile. The efforts of his brain and brawn thread the world's greatest achievements and have seen their fruition in his part in the development of American civilization does most for the race when he teaches his children to labor and prepares them to labor intelligently. Labor is not to loil. Toil is the grinding service task, the portion of slaves, and cannot be where men work, and the most significant effort. The laboring man thinks and works rather than is worked.
"The great mass of our countrymen will always be those who work with their hands. The safety of American rests with the laborers, and the reason the wisest statesman, the trust patriots are those who strive for the education, the protection, and the intelligent cooperation of the laboring class. There is much cause for congratulations to the laborers, and the intelligent organizations. With the efforts for civil, political and religious liberty has grown space the effort for industrial betterment. The nobles and rulers in the extreme of human selfishness, ground down in the night of their oppression these struggled unceasingly for a better day. In the days of Constantine there were no less than thirty-five labor organizations, having for their aim the doing away with the contempt for and taint of labor which from the belief that workers had no soul.
"Through the intervening years, the inhoring classes in secret wrought out a better condition, and the cumulative force of their struggle was seen by the civic and French Revolution, which hade the world book up and hope for a better day. The stretch from Runnymede to the Declaration of Independence had meant much in the lives of nations, but a retard had been set in motion by the introduction of Human slavery and labor unions are not compatible. It was but a question of time that the free labor of the North, seeking to electate itself to a position of competency, independence and amercantile citizenship would, find the Hium of Human slavery and labor unions in South. The conscience of the abolitionist, the Christianity of the good men of America, who sought to do unto others as they would that men should do unto them was reinforced by those who saw the utter futility of driving for lasting peace, and that while millions of American laborers were but serfs and slaves. We are all thankful to day that from these forces freedom and that you of my race here to day, no serfs, but happy, intelligent and prosperous laborers. Our strength, organization steps power and your ability to know your interest, which is but the interest of your country, is evidenced by your organizations. The trades and vocations embraced within labor organizations extend to all phases of the labor force, and augmented easily. As you labor effectively and intelligently, can you demand and hope to receive proper remuneration from your labor. Increased remuneration with economy means the acquisition of homes, the possession of land, bank accounts, education for children, and training in labor, rather than being a public charge, become a worthy and respected citizen.

"I would not have my views impress you that labor can live alone or that the power of capital should be underestimated if you do not understand the most friendly relations and a mutual understanding between labor and capital, will inure to the benefit of both. In this day of compromise, arbitration and compromise, the leader can accomplish untold good. All thoughtful men agree that lock-outs on the part of the management of a great concern, or strikes on the part of labor concerns, can but result in injury to both."

The story of the intimidations, violence, boycots, and all the accompaniment of a great labor war cannot be told. It was at this point that the President of the United States, Theodore Roosevelt, offered a blessing upon the mine owner, the miner, and the whole American people by a settlement of this great strike. It is the earnest wish of all that we may never see a occurrence of such an event all the elements of our industrial life may understand each better, is our hope.
Taking Advantage of Opportunities in Material Growth of the Race—Long List of Business Concerns
PHILADELPHIA, August 26.—As the initiative was made in this city for the education of the Afro-American and the upbuilding of his character, it has always seemed of interest and value that some record should be kept of this local effort at the upbuilding on a race. Shortly after the meeting of the Society of Friends, among the earliest being a "Register of Trades of Afro-Americans," in 1537, and a statistical inquiry into the condition of Afro-Americans of Philadelphia" by Edward Needler in 1540, it was noted that race developed writers of its own. The most prolific writer of the present day in historical research is the Hon. Carl Bolivar, who under the nom de plume of "Bencel Pusher," writes such interesting articles, and contributes to other periodicals. Mr. Mossell, A. P. Caldwell and Prof. H. Keating also are contributors to several of the leading dailies. The interests and activities of the race in this city center around the churches schools charities insurance societies and other business enterprises. They have developed business and professional men, musicians, men of letters, artists, etc. A leading American artist, Henry O. Tanner is an Afro-American painter. He is the leading sculptor of the Jamestown Exposition. Miss Meta Warrick is an Afro-American, and a native of this city. A small collection of men and women of letters resides here. Mrs. Frances E. W. W. Koeing also has a partial competence on the royalty on her publications. James E. McGirt is rapidly forging ahead in the footsteps of Paul Lawrence Dumbar, he having issued two books in dialect, and has another in stress. The brilliance of James Dumbar is rapidly placing him on the highest pinnacle of fame. The American Negro Historical Society, which celebrated the anniversary of John Brown's raid on Harper's Ferry a short time ago, has a small collection of the publications being on the history of the Afro-American race. Mr. Carl Bolivar also has a very large collection, some of which the housing problem seemed the most difficult of the upbuilding of the associations could not surpass but with the aid of the building and loan associations and real estate companies, they have in a few years done a wonderful work iniding them in securing homes in desirability. Among the building and loan associations is the Cherry, the Banner, the W. W. Still, the Pioneer, the Eighth Ward Settlement; in real estate companies we have the Metropolitan, Mercantile, Afro-American Realty; the real estate owned retail from $200 investment in a building and loan association to the estate of the late John Mckeen, which was valued at $1,200,000. With this interest in home building has come also an interest in more independence in voting. The Afro-American in Philadelphia is fortunately situated in many respects, not the least being that he has always had the sympathy and cooperation of the better class of his white fellow citizens in his efforts to raise antagonism from the less fortunate of the dominant section of the community as do those of the race in some sections of the country. In business we have twelve lawyers, auto repairers, 410 music, 1 brass inlet, 2 blacksmiths, 3 bicycle repairers, 5 brookers, 11 boot and shoemakers, 64 boarding houses, 3 cleaning and dyeing establishments, 1 clothing store, 19 custom tailors, 7 cigar manufacturers, 3 chair makers, chirpologists, 2 carpenters, 2 caterers, 2 cemetery companies, 3 carpet cleaning workers, 4 contractors, 11 dentists, 4 dry goods, 1 department store, 2 drums stores, 2 dry cleaning and scourers.
Afro-American children have "for the past ten years enjoyed all the school privileges of the municipality, passing through the primary, secondary and grammar schools and in the high, commercial and fair quoition training schools. We have a fair quoition in institutes to population. Many have taken advantage of the public night schools, Temple College, Dresel Institute, Young Men's Christian Association, the business colleges and other institutions for advanced degrees. We have a department of the University of Pennsylvania Medical College, Jefferson College, Hahnemann College, Polyclinic, Dental and Philadelphia Law Schools have graduates among our race, who have given a creditable account of themselves. A number of them have graduated from the Frederick Hahnemann Delphin Training School for Nurses, the Mercy Hospital and the University of Pennsylvania Medical and Training School. The most important charities are the Old Folks Home for Colored People, Home for Old Day Nursery, Colored Women's Home for Orphanage, Nurse Home for Orphanage, the Association for the Protection of the Colored Women, the Empty Stocking, the Fresh Air Fund, the Colored Orphans' Asylum and the Colored Men's and Women's Asylum. The Old Folks Home for several clubs and the Old Folks Home are building an allsteel building at 127th Street at a cost of $20,000; the Brotherhood has bought on Rainbridge street near 15th, and will fall down and build the most compulsions structure in section of the country; the Elk area located on Rainbridge street, the Citizens' Club, the Rainbridge street, the city, is located on Broad street near South; the Light Star Hall on Pine street near 13th, owned by the Hodarian Union, bought for $20,000, and repairs for $17,000 put on it which made 17th and Kater Street; the Model-Hall at 17th and Kater Street; the first condition for the coming season. Very many Afro-American hold special positions of confidence and merit. J. H. Gair.
Interests and Influence of the League Far Reaching—Well-Known Lawyer in Chicago—T. G. Ewing, of the Union Bank
And thoughts of men are widened with the process of the same."
It is fortunate that the interests and influence of the Business League are so important and far-reaching that some report of its proceedings, and interesting Incidents may easily come into the possession of the absent. The correspondent of the notice is able to report upon some of the significant features of the convention.
It is abundantly evident that colored people are learning some of the *tricks of trade*. An interesting illustration of this is the men of Indianapolis who was a delegate to the National Convention of the Negro Business League in Topakia last week. Indianapolis delegate is a truck gardener. His garden is located about two miles from the city limits. For several years he has followed this business and is now regarded as one of the most successful men in that line in the city, where he has wapped with every modern idea or raising and marketing every kind of vegetants of commission men, merchants and everybody else, until he got his price. For several hours he was the tomato Indianapolis market. When everybody came to his garden the market loose and went back to his garden the proudest man on the street. Everybody knows him now and they will be on their guard, and the next time he will trick it, it will probably be on a scale that will give people something to think about.
Mr. J. E. Hawkins, the best-known colored lawyer in the Northwest, is in the city for recreation. He was in attendance at the sessions of the Negro Huntington Association, which represents Seattle, his home, as one of the most liberal cities in America for Afro-Americans. Prejudice is not a bindsure to any Afro-American who has an interest in the success of Ungar. Mr. T. G. Ewing, cashier of Ungar's Savings Bank of Vicksburg, is an older interesting stranger who is seeking the cool breaches of Lake Michigan. Mr. table indigenous to that soil and climate. He is interested in the assistance of every member of his family and saved considerable money and is rated as well off in ownership of good city property, in addition to his finely-cultivated farm land. All this speaks well for a class once a slave and who never attended school more than three months in his life.

Fortieth Annual Session Hold in Richmond
DR. WALKER'S ADDRESS
Brilliant Speech at Public Meeting—Convention Largest. Attended and Most Harmonious in History of Organization.
RICHMOND, Va., August 27. -The first annual session of the Independent Order of St. Luke has met and adjourned. Its work is now a part of the history of the great organization. The session was the largest and most harmonious in the history of the organization. There were present more than 700 delegates and more than 100 members from Massachusetts, Rhode Island, Connecticut, New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Delaware, Maryland, West Virginia, Kentucky, Tennessee, Ohio, North Carolina, the district of the state, the district of the corner of Virginia and from far away Colorado. The sessions were characterised for the despatch of business, this was due largely to the work as mapped out by the executive of the grand council.
One of the most important acts of the assemblage was the organization of the matrons' board of the junilee department. This organization took place Monday, when 182 matrons of the 204 of the junilee department of the University of the James street. This meeting was preceded over by Grand Matron Mrs. Maggie I. Walker, with Mrs. Emeline Johnson as secretary. The report of the grand secretary showed that during the year just ended that 10,714 new junilee policies had been issued and the work of that department the most successful in the history of the organization.
Tuesday morning the Right Worthy Grand Council assembled, with the Right Worthy Grand Chief Dr. J. T. Walker presiding. After devotional exercises the committee reviewed the entire grand officer responded to his name. The committee on credentials was appointed, after which there was an introduction of strangers. Other committees were appointed and then the right attorney, grand chief delivered his annual address, and the grand officer reviewed the entire work of the order. The report of the grand worthy secretary showed that 81 new councils had been organized during the year; that 31,019 new policies had been issued and 1,500,000 paid in sick and death claims. There were also reports from the St. Luke's Penny Savings Bank by E. C. Burke, cashier, and the St. Luke Heard, Mrs. Lillian H. Payne, manager. These reports showed the organization in a healthy and on the high road to prosperity.
Wednesday morning's work was devoted to routine work and the hearing of the reports of committees. The afternoon session was given over to similar work. The morning session was devoted to "Emergency Fund" question would bring about a wrangle, but so well had this been managed by the right worthy grand secretary and the executive board that there was little or no friction in the grand secretary. Wednesday a public meeting was held in Fifth street Baptist church, at which Dr. H. L. Harris deputy for Richmond, presided. A rich literary and musical program was rendered. The address of Dr. C. T. Walker of Amherst and the "Race Optimism and Possession" or the Bright and the Dark Side of Afro-American Life" was the doctor's theme, and the subject was handled in a most logical and eloquent manner. No public petition, publication or identification of Afro-American audience as did Dr. Walker in this magnificent speech.

A MODEL NEGRO CULTURY
A Study of Wilberforce Anything But Flipping to the Inhabitants.
Wilberforce, Aug. 28.—A leading university of the country is now conducting a study of the little village known as Wilberforce, Ohio, where is located Wilberforce University. The village is not incorporated and has a school district which comes from occupying a school district within the township of Xenia. It is hardly necessary to and that even with the flattering title which the university making the "Wilberforce Community" the matter is anything but pleasing to many of the inhabitants.
The study of sheep and swine, of horses and dairy herds, of poultry and pigs may be all right, because the poor bristle of the sheep is the key to the psychology of babies, for the little wonder-struck darlings do not know what it is all about, but when it comes to be applied to yourself by a little man with a slip and a pencil, who when he sees you come up to your chair, well, you must not give way to your feelings.
However, the work has gone on quietly through the community, with what results we shall know when we read cases Nos. 1, 2 and 3 spread out in the paragraphs of the digified report, as illustrated. The Table X., of value (other than the formal information) of the other important contribution will be made to the fascinating science of sociology.
"When it rains it pours." Announcement is also made that Booker Washington is to appear in a magazine with an amphibian cover, and the magazine is called "Towr." One feels like saying, "And then, too, Brutus?" Well, Mr. Washington knows us perhaps as well as the others do who will write, and he will not make us use of them. We all know when all were answered? Nous verons. We cannot paint ourselves and have not time to pose for a picture, and snapshots are woefully disillusioning. Man in his most natural movements, as we all know, makes a speech, in a most ungrateful animal. We have fancied ourselves quite poetic in our ambulations, and the electorates have given us more confidence, but the amphibian shows that truth is stranger and homelier than fiction.
Willberforce is fortunate in receiving so much attention, and viewed with regard to its natural beauty is in every respect worthy of admiration and done much. From any point within its limits, turn in any direction, and a pleasing prospect greets your eye. The beauty remains all the year, changing only with the varying seasons. There are also well constructed residences, where people can enjoy quiet living by orderly, quiet-loving families. With no officers of the law, the community lives in safety: no dives or sabbos, no drunkenness or arrests disturb its peace by day or night. Good people are welcomed on such occasions, whither than mourn or blacker than chore, any "undesirable citizens."

Properity in the South.
(From the New Orleans Advocate.)
The South is in the midst of an unprecedented industrial prosperity, the demand for labor in the labor shortage is not due, necessarily to the indifference, lack of people, but is due largely to the multiplied industries. The South is not profitable industries of the South at present, and has called from the farm an unusually large number of laborers, largely because better wages are offered. The Negro is enjoying this prosperity but is practically the monopoly of the common labor of the South. This he should hold on to with tenacity and yield not his grip upon the industries of the South, which means his position, social, social, social in the plasters of this city, went on a strike last week, demanding $2.00 per day. Think of it! Common labor in any industry receiving $2.20 per day, and wanting $2.00 per day when a farm earn $2.00 per day he is the wages offered the common labor. Does the Negro really appreciate the advantages that are his? Does he forsee that there is a continuing and awakening in the industries? If he does and awakens in time he will not be succeeded by the foreigners who are coming in large numbers into the South.
THE NEW YORK AGE: THURSDAY, AUGUST 29, 1907
Irwin Beltrone the Purdue Address.
The Guestman New York District Conference of the New York African M. E. church, composed of the churches of Rikkyo in Kansas City and Moravian in Brussels Wesleyan morning at 10 o'clock in the auditorium of the Union Batal African M. E. church (which for about three years and on years has been located at the center of the city) at Genesee Saloh Courtside motto.
There was a large gathering of the pasture and by delegates at the opening session and Preeding Elder W. H. H. Butler, D. D., who for the past fourteen years has successfully supervised the district, and who has impaired the entire conference by tendering his resignation of this, the highest office in the hands of the bishop in the New York diocese, asking for a transfer to the Third Episcopal District, called the convent, where services had been conducted by the Rev. A. W. Saunders, of Bay shore, assisted by Rev. K. S. Farreira, of Glen Cove, and the Rev. J. O. Vick, of Freeport, L. I. The conference organization was perfect, and the session was appalled. The conference sessions will be in progress morning, afternoon and evening.
Preeding Elder Butler's annual address was the feature of the morning at the farewell being, especially patriotic, at the farewell meeting him up. For many months he has proved himself the leader of the New York diocese and at the annual conference he was the unanimous choice to champion the rights of the New York diocese at the eminent Council Conference.
His address, in concluding, was as follows:
"As I have applied for and received a transfer from the New York to the Ohio conference, I have a delivery in suggesting anything which, if acted upon, will prove beneficial. even though I feel certain it would operate most happily for the advancement of the work of the district. I may be allowed, however, to beseech you to make such arrangement and assessment for his support, as will insure that he will be able to meet the amount ready for him when he comes (as the discipline directs), thus sparing him the embarrassment and humiliation of listening to a pitiful appeal to the people. You cannot know till you have served in this office, and experienced the task of being raised up as a mediator, however you put on the presiding elder's patience.
"I cannot close this address without again thankking you for the street obedience, perfect loyalty, and distinguished consideration and respect that has charmed me. I am grateful to the presiding elders with their presiding elders during the past year. And I charge you all, as you would have the people cherish respect for the obedience to the law, that you conscientiously and scrupulously follow the presiding elders in all your official and candidible duties. I relieve the presiding elder from the painful duty of making an adverse ruling and decision which must humiliate and discredit you before your people, or become hippie in an accessory after the fact to a woman, or in an accessory after the fact to a man, of which can be a pleasant task for him."
"And I specially commend to you the superannuated prescribers of the conference, that you provide liberally for them, managing disbursements at conference, continuing the work of the church, their present infirmities and needs, and think the day—cosmeth peace when we (you and I), will be of that man in the active work, for kind and helpful remembrance. But the brethren on poor mission appointments are almost equally deserving, and have as little to do protect their own material interests. Our sons, the soldiers heard, and their names never appearing on the committee of finance. Let them not look and call upon you in vain, do not to them, and they will not fail you in your mission. My own experience in this conference proves that gratitude and trust are not wanting among the men of this conference, and that when they find themselves in the church, their will withhold no hours from him. I commend you to the God of all comfort and grace, and shall pray without casting for a continuance of his blessing. I commend you to the Lord of Christ, which He purchased with His blood, and of which you have been made under shepherds. "Till we meet with men on earth, or there, in our house in heaven. I bid you an affectionate and fraternal farewell."

Prohibition and Disfranchisement
(From the Disfranchisement Plan)
The Legislature of Georgia has decided to amniate the whiskey interests and to disfranchise the Negro. It would seem then that the question of drinking the whiskey in Georgia has been settled to the satisfaction of the cockerer in that State. Of course, the question of disfranchisement does not materially affect us for the reason that our understanding of it is that the Negro is the only one in Georgia all the time, except in those in States where he voted for the man and the party, that disfranchised him. As the matter now stands, the prohibition elements must accept the responsibility for the "man and brother" who was already familiar and disfranchised. It will require much explanation and more talking in the doubtful States to analyze that need to explain the meaning of this most remarkable condition of affairs in Georgia.

DELEGATES Off the Change to Attend Convention - Summer Presented to Manhattan No. 6, Other Noders. No delegates are to be held away. They are to be urged to the closest scrutiny of every fact, whether in society or in the State. Aptitude of democratic ideals and the adjustment to actual conditions which alone can insure lasting success. Prudence, ignorance and tradition are not to be allowed to implant themselves in our midst. We must interpret frankly all the interests of our common fraternity, consequence, to lead progressively public opinion. The Grand Convention is already to embrace within their affection all the interests of our common fraternity to any one faction, and it will not do so. Brooklyn Lodge, No. 32,祝贺 her delegates, one hundred dollars each to cover their necessary expenses during the conference to support the election of Atkinson and Holmes, and each delegate must render to the lodge on their return a report in writing on the proceedings of the Grand Convention. These reports will be placed into the archives of the lodge for future reference.

On behalf of the ladies, Mrs. Exalted Ruler James H. Anderson presented the banner to Manhattan Lodge, with appropriate remarks, and during the course of the meeting, the Manhattan Lodge membership will all always cherish this banner as one of the greatest emblems, and give it the place of honor at all of your gatherings. Never forget the quinon non paratus." The following ladies were instrumental in securing this priceless emblem for Manhattan Lodge, No. 45: Mrs. Exalted Ruler James H. Anderson, Mrs. Deputy P. S. Jones, Mrs. Deputy J. S. Jones, Mrs. Paul Exalted Ruler James S. Williams, Mrs. Master of Ceremonies James S. Battles, Mrs. Daniel Gant, Mrs. E. Burton Crutti, E. R. 32; Mrs. G.

Music by the famous Amsterdam Musical Association, which proved highly successful and delighted the to the taste. After the dinner, the guests were finished up necessary business.
At the last regular meeting of Westchester Lodge No. 119, Tarrytown, N. Y., the group met to discuss safety over the long journey through the wilderness of Elks' mysteries from the "City of Chase" to the City of Elkdom. The group discussed the successful conclusion of their long journey. A number of fresh candidates will be initiated Tuesday, September 17. The meetings of Westchester Lodge No. 119 will take place in each month at Maumee Hall.
The first annual reception of Westchester Lodge will be held on Labor Day evening, Monday, September 2, at Muskell Hall. Music will be by J. W. Roffmann, business adviser, and badges admitted free. See advertisement. This even promises to be the most attractive social affair of the season in Tarrytown, and its citizens are taking only Elkdom and its rapid progress in that progressive little township, and they are making their pre-program of the year. Special arrangements have been made for the 4:32 A. M. express to stop for the accommodation of their New York and out-town guests. Supper will be served by an experienced caterer. Those attendances will be of a good, jolly and social evening, and sweet memories of the Tarrytown Elks.
Dr. Mills, of Norfolk, Va., has graciously informed our officials that he has expressed no opposition to the suggestion that the two branches of the fraternity will work together to help he will work for reconciliation and affiliation at Reading, and hopes to bring about peace. Our Grand Lodge will do likewise, and it is practically the desire of every Anter to make common regular sources of activity, and not an intellectual demoralization as herefore. We recommend parliamentary intervention, public agitation, popular manifestation and a coherent manifesto in relation to the solidification of its principles or the unification of its diverse and warring factions. We are unanimously convinced that constitutional principle must prevail and it will be the paramount question of the future and gleanes of it come from all directions. We shall conspicuously champion the cause to fruitful ends.

To the Editor of THE NEW YORK AGE
St. Matthew's Church, Opening, N. Y.
Rev. E. P. Morris, pastor, is making
great progress. On August 12 Dr. H. A.
Brown, pastor of the Delphia district, held our second quarterly
conference, and the reports were the best
that have been received in the history of
the church. After the conference Dr.
Monroe was tendered a reception at the
parsonage, and all present spent at most
conjurable evening. August 14 and 15
concert, and it was a decided success.
Sunday, the 26th, was a great day with
us here. The pastor preached morning
and evening. Both services were well
attended; also the Sunday School. At the
conclusion of the evening service the offi-
cials of the church gave the pastor a
withdrawal with a vacation. We are going on to success.

DEMOCRATS MAKE GOOD.
Three Men and One Woman Receive
Assentments — Mysterious Warder
Three Men and One Woman Receive "Appointments — Mysterious Murder"
NEWARK, Aug. 28. A murder case was brought to light on Monday morning last by two Italian women, who were raking over the refuse on a dumping ground in Vanderpool street, near Avenue B. Whilst engaged they discovered a dead body, which, upon further investigation, proved to be that of Miss Lissie Lippin吉斯, who had been born in Benton street, Miss Lippin吉斯, born in Benton street, moiety of a missionary, emplaced by the Bethany Baptist Church. She left her home Saturday and was not seen alive again. Physician Elliot, upon examining the body at the morgue, found that death had occurred in the woman's neck had been broken and the body was otherwise bruised. Many arrests have been made so far in the case, but none of those arrested has been held. The woman's neck had been bruised, and good their promises of life. But if the colored voters would help them to win they would appoint several of the race positions. Accordingly three men and one woman have received apportionment of the $2,700, as follows: Halsey Francisco, vice-president of the H. M. Randolph Association, as deliverman for the Board of Education, salary $000 per year; Mr. O. M. Brown, Democratic chairman of the Board of Education, salary $2,700 per year; Halsey Francisco, leader of the Campaign-Quartet, also junior at the Court House, salary $250 per year. A colored lady from the county came to work at the court house, with a salary of $300 per year. It is claimed that this is more than the Republicans of the county have ever done in the history of political patronage, and is given big credit for the efforts of the Afro-American vote this fall.

One of the most interesting develop:
ments in the politics of the times is the
steady growth of public opinion favor-
able, to the nomination of Governot
Hnghés of New York to succeed Presi-
dent Roosevelt. We find this- public
‘opinion cropping out all along the line
im the publications of all parties and in
conversation with all sorts of men all
over the country as we have met them
during the past eight weeks.
Coincident with the development ‘of
the sentiment inimical to the third-
term precedent and to faction candi-
datuses has growa up a sentiment favor-
able toa personality strong enough to
command the confidence of the National
electorate in the tlominating convention
and in the yoting of the Federal elec
torate. We have in Governor Hughes
a man who meets all of the require-
ments of the situation, He stands for
“the Roosevelt policies” of making the
corporations deal straight with. the peo-
ple and for the policy of compelling
trade-unionism to do likewise,
What more does the country wish’ of
a man in the White House than that he
represent all of the interests of all of
the people alike with “the Big Stick"? -

As the people have already expended
large sums of money upon it without
seeing the service improved or the cost
of operation decrease they are now ad-
vocating the abandonment or sale of the
plant and a contract for sccuring light
“from a private company.
The lighting plant of Topeka, Kan,
continues to show such a steadily in-
creasing deficit that the citizens are now
clamoring for a change. They want
better service and their taxes decreased.

the leadership of Dr. Dominador Gomes
in a revival of the fighting organization
known a3 “The Catapunan,” which had
a feverish existence in the Aglapy re-
ligious agitation when the writer, was in
‘the Philippine Islands three years ago.
‘The. hotbed of Filipino unrest now,
as uniler the tyranny of Spain, is in the
Province of Rizal, in which Manila, the
seat of -the Philippine government, is
located, and in which reside the mixed-
blooded people of European and Asiatic
amalgamation, the inhabitants of the
other provinces and islands being of
Asiatic and therefore ansemic or de-
generate stock, the most pronounced type
of which is t be found in the Negroid
pigmics of the Caraballe mountain, over
which we passed in going from the Pan-
rassinan to the Cagayan valleys.
The aspiration of the Filipino people
after indepenience is a latent force in
every considerable number of people
who have developed a tribal relation;
but when this tribal growth has been
re-enforced by a sentiment of. nation-
ality—such as was developed by the con-
stant warfare to keep Spanish tyranny
from hitching itself upon the people of
the archipelago! and the insincere prom-
ises of the American people after the
fantastic war with Spain, over which
we have discharged more- brag and
bluster than we did bullets and blood
in the war of conquest and inhuman
subjugation—the spirit. of nationality
has become a passion which runs through
the life of the whole people.
Until the American people get out of
the “Philippine Islands, rendering back
to Asia that which is ‘Asiatic, leaving in
it the deathless spirit of it, that which
is American, Filipino people will remain

ELIMINATING THE VOTE
Constitutional Amendments and Restrictive Election Laws Have Cut Down Vote—Washington's Address at Vanderbilt.
WARNINGTON, August 26.—In The Southwestern Christian Advocate of August 15, Prof. J. Beverly F. Shaw writes on the "Value of Humanistic Studies for Negroes."
In a recent number of The North American Review W. P. Livingstone has a sluby and bias article entitled "The West Indian and the American Negro—A Rem. Walter Brooks, the eloquent pulpit orator of the Nineteenth Baptist church. Washington, D.C., was a delegate to the International-C. E. Convention, which met at Seattle, and delivered Ebishop W. J. Gaines, of the A. M. E. church, and his minister of the Philadelphia and New Jersey Conference, hold an educational congress and ministerial banquet at Atlantic City last week. He heard on "The Negro, His Education and Human Rights."
At Atlanta on August 23 resolutions indicting Senator Foraker for the Presidency and denouncing the Georgia disaffection and rallies of the Republican State League which was attended by 3,000 Negroes and a number of white Republicans. The white people at Brownsville, Tenn., were not held in court not with Negro soldiers. An epidemic of dengue fever, in which there are more than 500 cases, has alarmed them and aroused the health officers to begin a general mobilization to treat the fever from following in its wake. Some of the Southern papers say that the Necrocs are displeased with President Hoover's仗 for appointing. Pearl Harbor was the site of internal revenue. Why should they not be displeased when Mr. Wright is identified with the "lily white" annuor of the Republican party in Louisiana. The Republican" when they want office?
Prejudice is trying to lift up its deformed head and bowl that the. Negro force in the Treasury Department to the required standard of the department, the examination of the Civil Service Commission not offering the practical tests to the black office, but it is said that officially admitted, but it is said that information comes from a reliable source that had not trouble arisen recently in the office of the supervising architect of color question, the Negro force against color question, that the competence had been alleged would have been either transferred to some other place or discharged. The fears now enveloped either course were the department the charge of prejudice or discrimination would be raised. Under the circumstances, it is claimed, the department is forced to keep them for fear of a misconstriction of its role. The Presidential campaign is coming on.
The Baltimore Sun says: "In a single decade, by the adoption of constitutional laws, the coined vote has been practically eliminated from the Potomac to the Rio Grande. In spite of the fifteenth amendment, only States in which the Nebraska vote is cast solidly on the border. In some of these, like Indiana and Ohio, it might hold the balance of power, if it were not known in the past. In the case of a vote in cast solidly for the Republican ticket, no matter what the issues or who the candidates, the Negro vote, ever since enfranchisement has been generally as an asset of the Republican party.
The Washington Daily Herald is the authority for the statement that in connection with the war on peonage, which began in the Southern States, it is probable that an investigation will soon be made of certain so-called labor bureaus and employment agencies in New York. Assistant attorney General Russell, who has been involved in several States in the South on business regarding the investigation and production of peonage cases, says that laborers are supplied by these organizations in many cases. They are in many cases kept there under false representations. It is represented to would-be employees that they will find labor light, the wages high, and the life of the laborer is good. Of fact, the laborers are frequently kept in a state of peonage. Mr. Russell says that many of the old slave-holding class in some parts of the South bitterly resent the laborers' ability to break up cases of alleged peonage and that juries fail to convict the employers in flazzard instances. One of these cases occurred in North Carolina recently, when Federal Judge Royd severely scored the jury for failing to convict.
Will lynchers he punished? The rumor is current in legal circles in Washington that after waiting for years for an opener, the lynchers determined to give the States of the Union an object lesson in the punishment of lynchers. The Department of Justice admits that it is lending every influence in the award of identification of the members of the murder chain Frank Bailey, a Negro, at Osage, Okla., not long ago, with a view of having them tried on charges of murder. As Oklahoma attorney, the Federal authorities will be charged with the department of Justice has approved the plans of District Attorney Emby, and Acting Attorney-General Russell has given him the services of two special assasins, and ordered the Negro for assaulting a railroad brakeman who elected him from a train.
Prof. Booker T. Washington's able and practical address delivered a few weeks ago to the students of Vanderbilt university, has been published by request in the New York Times, and is good for profitable reading for both students. Are some of the telling shots called from two or three pages:
"In the South the Negro is far in angease of the South African brother, because through contact with the white people, he has been encouraged to degree, taking the race as a whole, wants have been increased, its ambitions have been grounded; the Negro wants he piece of land. After awhile, as more education, he wants to put on that land with three or four in his character; he will want some new care; he will want some books; he will want to educate his children; he will want to build a new church house; he will want to support his ministers; after he will want a bank account, and after he will want a program of education going on in his life and education, his wants will be multi-
black, will he be so ingrusted that he will
be able to live five and six days out
of both wounds.
In the average white family of the South, you will find that the white child spends a large proportion of the life in the home of the mother. In the North, on Negro girl. During the years when the child is most impatientable, when he is at the point most impatientions are perhaps most heating, that child is in the company of this black woman. In the South, the child is most important, in my opinion, for the civilization, for the happiness, for the health of the Southern white people, that the colored nurse shall be intelligent, that she shall be clean, that she shall be contact with that other and innocent child.
"I want to use us get back to the old days where the white ministers will be invited, and if he does not receive the invitation, will ask for the invitation, to preach in Negro pulpits, as was true the day before, and to point to the point where at least once a month every white minister will feel it a part of his duty, a part of his mission, to appear in some of the Negro churches in that community. They have been trained to use their hands, but their hands had not been increased, their ambitions had not been aroused, they are ignorant to the extent that they knew only a few simple and crude things; and they can satisfy themselves about by working three or four days out of the six, and then when they had satisfied all the wants they knew anything about, they naturally argued. 'What is the use of working any longer?'
NO LONGER AN EXPERIMENT.
Reconstructions of the National Negro Business League.
The following resolutions were presented by the committee and adopted by the National Negro Business League at Topkapi, Kan., August 18, 1907. The Negro Business League organized at Boston, Mass., in August, 1900, is no longer an experiment.
"Attendance upon its annual sessions has grown year by year. More than 1,200 persons in the seven years of its existence are allied themselves with it as members."
"There are now 456 local and six State leagues, doing the work and extending the influence of the national organization in different countries of the country. The amount of capital invested in negro enterprises and the number and variety of Negro business concerns are increasing steadily from year to year. There are 31 Negro banks now in active operations. Negro businesses are in process of organization. Eight years ago there were but two. Much of this progress is due to the enthusiasm which the meetings of the National Negro Business League have developed and to the business agenda which individually has been given to business enterprise.
"We emphasise again our belief in our honored president's terse epigram, that "An inch of program is worth a yard of complaint." This is the spirit we want our people adopt throughout the country.
"We would emphasize the value of beginning now the establishment of businesses on no matter how modest a scale. It is not possible at the very beginning to have business enterprises to compare with our business businesses started years ago in humber beginning.
"We would urge our people to secure homes, to root themselves into the soil, and before it is too late, get possession of the land undeveloped in the rural districts, and that there they are to find employment in industries such as it is not to be found in the cities.
"We would be recruit to our duty if we did not urge the most rigid economy in living and steady application to such employment as we are engaged in. The bank account no matter how small, is the sign of an investment. We would urge the starting of bank accounts everywhere."
JOHN RANDOLPH'N AMBITION.
Nipped in the Bud by a Pikkerton Man at the Saratoga Racetrack.
SARATOGA, N. Y., Aug. 26—John Randolph, colored and suave, entered into the automobile business in an entirely new way at the Saratoga track and purported to be the first to drive it weekly. Chauffeurs are admitted free to the clubhouse lawn at the track, but without badges cannot enter the clubhouse or grand stand enclosure. Chauffeurs sometimes wish to bet, especially when they are in good mood. John Randolph thought he saw a way to encompass the evil of not allowing the chauffeurs into the betting ring, so he went out into the ring and collected the badges of bookmakers' clerks for the bet. These he sold to chauffeurs at the cut rate of from $1 to $1.50, and then the chauffeurs were free to speculate.
John Randolph might have been wealthy if his game had continued, but when he cut off short to-day, John Randolph went out of the gate by which the automobiles enter, to stay out forever.
YOUNG MAN GOES INSANE.

He wasjected or had the promise of, but never had received. His parents were notified and took the young man home. They were compelled to commit him to the inpatient and deludden last week.
