VOL. XXI. No. 30 Easter services at Mother Zion Church last Sunday were far above the average and reflected credit alike upon the choir and the organist-directress, Mrs. Minnie Johnson, and the floral committee headed by Mrs. Mannie Diggs. The music was superb. The singing by the choir was animated, the singing of the orchestra was artistic, the handling of the organ by Madame Johnson was all that could be desired. The desserts of waving palms, huddling lilies and other flowers greeted the eye in magnificent profusion, naking the chained a veritable fairyland, Prof. George Johnson and his orchestra discoursed pleasingly at all times and the rendering by the choir of the selections, "Rejoices This Holy Easter Day." "By the Thorny Waves of Sorrow," "Christ, Our Passover," "Christ Is Risen" elicited warm words of praise, Miss Irish Moorman was the soloist at the morning service and gave an artistic addition of a classic excerpt which charmed all who heard her. Mrs. Delilah Hunter Thomas as the soloist in the evening service thrilled her audience as the rich strains of her sweet and melodious voice filled the gran' auditorium and won for Lauvis as a singer of no mean ability. But the distinct feature of the whole days' exercises, aside from two able sermons of the pastor, Dr. McMullen, two of the very best sermons he has ever preached in the church, and the awake singing of the Junior Easter Lily Club, Mrs. Johnson's effort in training them for this occasion was able repaid by their singing "Christ is Risen." The children made a splendid impression and their service in a like capacity will in all likelihood be in demand in the church afternoon by the Sunday school were replete with many brilliant performances by the members of the coming church.

Mrs. Sarah Chack Jackson and Mrs. Sadie Lockett had the program in character. Larry brought the spacious church all days and many bishops and beautiful bats were welcomed among the worshipers. Had the weather been more propitious than larger crowds would undoubtedly have been easy. Ralph Johnson's effort was bap-tiful.

The church was tastefully decorated and special praise is extended for the choir. The choir is extended of the choir for the appropriate music rendered at intervals. The choir is 50 per cent. of the life of the church. We will not forget the little lady, Miss Cora Carle, whose fingers are never tired in compelling the organ to discourse sweet. The collections were very large. The Children's Church was largely attended at 11 a.m. on Sunday last. The special music rendered by the choir under the leadership of Mr. W. H. Taylor was superb. Mr. Henry M. Archer preached the sermon. The pastor William S. Holder, was in good ministerial style, and preached a very inspiring sermon on Matthew 28: 6: "He is not here; for he is risen, as he said. Come, see the place where the Lord lay." In part Rev. Holder said: "It was on this day that the resurrection hell hould enlarge. Through the resurrection man's redemption has been assured. The tomb or sepulchre has been no badly shattered that no trouw of earthly masonry can repair it. Earth has no hiding place sufficiently secret or remote in which to find the toww of earthly lord of lords." In conclusion Rev. Holder made a strong appeal to his hearts to live a better Christian life, and ever keep in mind the suffering, death, burial and resurrection of our blessed Lord and Saviour. Jesus Christ. Abraxasia needs to be proud of the progress she has made in her life, preparing to celebrate in dazzling style her centennial. She should also be congratulated upon the acquisition of having as pastor of the junior church a THE MUSICIAN young man of intelligence, note and character." We learned that Rev. Holder has spent many years in preparation for the sacred task that has fallen to him, in the study of the human mind, in expert stenographer and typist. More such young men are nestled in the min- ```markdown ``` injury and should be encouraged by all concerned. Rev.

Helping t BISHOP GAINES TALKS SENSE Declares His Intention to Stand By Republican Party JUSTICE FOR SOLDIERS His Counsel to Leaders of Rage Not to Stir. Up Racial Strife Meets Approval of Conference—Thanks President Roosevelt. WASHINGTON, D.C. April 20—Bishop Ginny in an address that evidently met the approval of the Conference declared his intention to support whether the Republicans nominate for President, saying he was a Republican and that party was THE NEW YORKER "The ship will also the sea" as far as the Negro was concerned. He said: "I am not of that crowd of us who call themselves Republicans, and yet would support a Democrat candidate for President because of a mistake made by the President. I believe in fighting the the Boys and battle within our party, and in voting for its nominee though he may not be our choice. "It is not right for us to be bitterly denouncing the leading white people of the party and South, and South, unites against us our condition would be hopeless. I know many fine men who are Democrats but the traditions of the party, are against us. We are under 10,000 obligations to the party of Abraham Lincoln as it broke the fettle on our land and I. I must lose our heads, or go too fast and, thereby make a mistake. "I pray God that the Brownsville matter will be adjusted, and I want to see the bill to reinstate the discharged soldiers passed. I believe President Rosevelt matter and that he will testify the mistake. "I must thank the President for his effort in trying to secure our better accommodations on railroads in the South. A few months ago I was a passenger on the Annapolis Short Line Railroad and the company, much less other conventions; I was one of those, who protested to the Interstate Commerce Commission against the accommodations some of the roads provided for our people, and we are grateful to the President for his assistance, have the railroads provide for us suitably. A DISASTER. J. C. Anbury, Editor of the Odd Fellows' Journal, Talks Soberly Concerning the Recent Racial Conference in Philadelphia. PHILADELPHIA, Apr. 20—We clip the following from his paper, The Old Fellow's Journal. Mr. Ashuray was on the grounds and had a change to get the inside fets covering this much heralded convention. The National Negro Conference, held in this city this week, has been from a racial point of view a disaster. In the first place among the few who attended there was much discord. For a time such a well-known race champion as James Hays was denied admission. Hays had an early train ride to Raveney Ramsey, a railroad that has been likened to Wendell Phillips, "folded his tent like the Arab and as silently stole away." The reduitable W. Calvin Chin, of "The Washington B. Calvin Chin," held a meeting of faithfuls who followed him in the basement of Zion Church while the Simon-purse was in the room. The Simon-purse would be harmed for many seasons. It was advertised extensively and yet no real leaders of the people attended, except a few whose views are well known. It demonstrates to the white politicians, who are always belittling us, that after all there are no colored leaders who have followers. If those present had recorded them, they probably would have been appalled by the Presidential nomination and appealed to their colored brethren in the South to elect delegates who are opposed to their action would have been intelligible. But when they declared that in the event of Taft's nomination they would support the Democratic party they took a position which they knew they could not maintain and at the same time would seek the right of the gentlemen who composed this conference to oppose the nomination of any candidate for the Presidency, but when they make idle threats which they know they cannot carry out they subject the leaders of the race to ridicule and contempt. The white men who now believe that these men can do as they say, and that they can faith in all Negro leadership. These can know better and should stop their ridicule. Providence Notes. On Palm Sunday a large attendance characterized the services in the various churches. Rev. Erik Groce presided at Holy Mary's church. Rev. H. Holly notion was administered at Allen Chapel by Rev. W. H. Turner. Miss Ethel Davis addressed the Lycum of Bethel Church and Rev. Harrison conducted the service at the Pond Street Baptist Church.

These are the homes of Adlerman William Williams, ex-City Veterinary Surgeon Henry Lewis and Mr. Ford. Four colored people, Miss Georgianna Lewis, a Chelsea school teacher, and her brother, and Mrs. Short and son perished in their homes, while several more are still missing.

Washington's address. In his highly pleasing and practical address to these cultured and conservative teachers, the great Negro educator spoke very pointily on the position and the mission of the teacher and how he should communicate with the teacher in his community with the life of his community. In this lesson he paid a happy and admirable tribute to the service and self-sacrifice of the Southern school teacher. The officers of the Association are Prof. William F.

At the annual election of officers, held before the address, the deposed, disgruntled fraction of wind-jammers, made by the credited "native show," was again overwhimily "sat upon" by the common-sense people of Boston. The high-handed dictation of this section in the Boston Historical Association, formerly respected and respectable, has finally driven all of the able and cultural support away from the organization and being fresh and organized, minutes of all outrage of the election here was at no time in doubt.

Wealth the Basis of Power The power which wealth has come to exercise in the affairs of mankind is well illustrated by the impotence of impoverished China and the strength of the plethora of Japan, which is by far smaller in territory and population than China, or by the impoverished decadence of Spain, once the wealthiest of states, and the alliance and strength of Germany, one of the youngest of European States. Russia was regarded as a wealthy, therefore a strong State, until the war with Japan dislodged the emptiness of its treasury. The moment a nation is known to be financially weak it is no longer respected by its neighbors, which treat it with contempt or despil it if they will. However we will, wealth is rated as the basis of power, as far as States are concerned. There need be no appeal from the dictum, however immoral it may seem, as the wealth of a nation is necessarily based upon the intelligence, industry and saving but its of its people. It is the same with people as with States. For the most part the richest man in every community is held in highest respect or fear by his neighbors. How he get his wealth is soldom considered; neither is the character of the man inquired into too closely. In the main, the deference paid to wealthy men because they are wealthy is hurtful to the morals of a community. The wealth development and accumulation of the United States in the past half century has been one of the marvels of modern industrialism. The abolition of slavery was the signal for an industrial movement covering all of the States; and, strangest of all, the movement in mine and factory growth has been greater in the late slave States than in any of the others. Slavery blights everything; freedom lights everything. In how far have the Negro people taken advantage of and been benefited by this growth? It has been only of recent years that they have shown any evidence of taking advantage of it, aside from agriculture; they have been benefited from the beginning as wage earners. It is to be hoped that they will continue to engage more and more in the business mastery of the development as well as benefited as wage earners. The Financial Panic The Financial Panic It is a subject of general interest that in their Monthly Financial Circular for April, issued by the banking house of John H. Davis & Co., it is stated as a conclusion that the panic begun in 1907 has so far culminated as to permit of a calm review of the causes which produced it. We have had few panics to which it was more difficult to trace the causes. When it began the country's industries were never more productive and its credit better. Capital had pritable investment and labor had remunerative employment. The high condition of prosperity, instead of leading to stability of credit and enlargement of industrial development and product, led rather to reckless speculation in the gambling exchanges and legislation by the Congress and several of the States, and to conquest demoralization in all directions. When frightened investors run to cover in a demoralized financial situation the banks can do nothing but shut their doors or refuse to accommodate those who have securities as a basis of business operations and enlargements. The character of securities is of various sorts. The safest and easiest of cash conversion are national and State bonds, while the most difficult are real estate mortgages and real estate held for speculation. The banks depend upon what are "1 savings of the masses more than any of the working deposits of large business concerns; indeed, the money of the former is the mainstay of the latter. When these savings are withdrawn because of panic conditions the banks close down on loans and big business operators, being unable to a cure money on collateral security, have to shut down operations entirely or curtail expenses. Then the laborer, small grocer and the butcher feel the pinch, and idle men and hungry women and children become as muddled as poor Barnaby Rudge sitting by a British coal pit, bereft of everything. We have lived through many pains, including "Black Friday." They may be unavoidable, as business operations and banking are ordered; but if the Federal Government alone should issue money and establish postal banks all over the country, and if stock gambling should be outlawed' and made criminal, panics would become well nigh impossible. Gambling in foodstuffs and fuel products, at least, should be made criminal. Unsafe Leaders So much has been said of late by the leading Negro newspapers condemning the erratic and circus-like methods of some of our so-called political leaders that Ting Ace hardly thinks there is need of an expression from it on unsafe leaders. While the spectacle of a few of our professional politicians making fools of themselves would rival any attraction that the Barrum and Bailey circus might advertise, at the same time there is a serious feature to their conduct, aside from the laughter they provoke. To pose as leaders of a race and yet do things that characterize them as infants—both physically and mentally—does the race no good, when you take in consideration that there is always some susceptible white man who is apt to listen to such infantile vaporings and form a conclusion that such men are really race leaders. When impressions are formed that such irresponsible persons are race leaders—men who go about and endeavor to incite the Negro voters to hold the Republican party at a national election—one can try readily imagine just what an estimate is put on the entire race. THE AGE joins hands with the many Negro newspapers that are denouncing such iconoclasts as onmines of the race whose motto is rule or minion. Truly, if they call themselves "blood" they are without a doubt trusted in the strongest songs, and should be captured and caged before they make two discursive a spectacle of themselves. We Are From Missouri "To New York, Val ought to be some kind of a millionaire when it gets through rolling in the slums and growing up the two pipes for Tait" - Linda, S. C. Light. Whenever a charge is made with an idea in the form of issuing the good name of a person or thing usually the "mind-singer" has "strong evidence to produce to substantiate the blood assertions made. As The Light has made the above charge it will be consistent with its name and throw some light on the subject. We would like very much to have a million dollars; in fact, a thousand of, and if the editor of The Light will point us the way to make a million dollars we will appreciate the effort. THE AGE is for Secretary Taft because he is the most available candidate the Republican party has at this time in the running. He is more of an ideal candidate than any of the other Republicans who aspire to receive the Republican nomination at the Chicago convention. We do not take kindly to Democracy, and we regard with suspicion Negroes who advise members of the race to vote for pronounced enemies of the Negro St. Louis Board of Education Thanks to the majority of members of the St. Louis Board of Education, the half-million dollar building will be built for the summer high school on the site originally intended. This decision was reached after several public hearings, held at the request of a number of white people who were opposed to the Negro high school being built on Cottage avenue, between Goode and Pendleton avenues. Messrs. Lockwood, Moore, Schroers, Taussig, Woodward, Colonn and Johnson should be congratulated by the Negro citizens of St. Louis for the stand they have taken throughout the controversy. An Announcement Early in May the African Meth district Episcopal Church will assemble in General Conference at Norfolk, Va. During the same time the African Meth district Episcopal Zion Church Conference will assemble in Philadelphia. We have arranged with special correspondents to cover the work and important features of each one of these gatherings during the whole time that they are in session. No one who wants to keep ahead of the progress of the race should fail to read 101. Ard during the sessions of these conferences. A letter from each conference will appear each week. Now is the time to substitute and prepare yourself to keep informed as to what these two important organizations are doing. Few, if any, religious organizations have more importance to us as people than is true of these two. We shall also print letters from Baltimore covering the work of the M. E. Conference so far as it relates to the interests of our people. THE ACE will keep itself abreast with all that is going on in the country in the direction of constructive work among our people. A Plain Talk with Our Readers Since the time the presh management took charge of Turt Ace we have tried to be plain and frank with our readers and supporters. Some months ago we made an appeal to our readers to assist us to increase the circulation of Turt Ace to at least fifty thousand during the present year. Since this appeal was made we have gone forward toward the reaching of our goal. To be exact, we have added to our subscription list since we took charge and since this appeal was made nine thousand new subscribers. We question whether any of Afro-American paper in the countr has ever made such a growth. We THE NEW YORK AGE: THURSDAY, APRIL 23, 1908. are not satisfied, hower, and we wish to add at least ten thousand more within the next two months. Will our subscribers and readers help us?

No one can accuse Governor Pinchback of want of loyalty to the race. No one can accuse Governor Pinchback of want of courage. He has stood by the race when it meant real danger. He has risked his own life on many occasions in defending the rights of the Viro-American. When a man of Governor Pinchback's position and record speaks as he does, surely others can afford to follow where he leads. Public Policy and Personalities Public Policy and Personalities It is time that the educated members of the Afro-American race should learn how to discuss matters relating to public policy and disagree upon them and at the same time leave aside personal class. White people all through the country have their political differences. They also disagree on many matters of the policy, but in most cases they rearrange friends. The Afro-American child learns to follow the same course there is no need of going into excited waters and personal vilification every time two people cannot agree on some political candidate or agree on some initial question. Praiseworthy Work in Mississippi Under the leadership of Bishop E. Cottrell, of the Colored Methodist Episcopal Church, the Afro-Americans in the state of Mississippi have raised in the last few months over sixty thousand dollars for the building of a college at Holly Springs, Miss. This is a record calculated to make the race feel proud of its black citizens in Mississippi. It also indicates that Vardaman nor no other force can keep the black people in Mississippi in ignorance.

That was a magnificent speech delivered by Senator Forker in defense of the Negro soldiers. We feel all the more sure that since Presid in Roosevelt has read this speech that he feels, sorry he was led into acting as he did with the Negro soldiers. The Ace has said many times that it believes that the President made a mistake in discharging the Negro soldiers in the way that he did. It repeats this utterance. No one can read Senator Broker's calm, strong, logical and local argument with an great trust for the man and without being overcome by a trolling of regret that a different course of reference to the soldiers was not put in. We believe, however, that in his way the President will see that justice is meted out to the soldiers. We hope that no Lily White delegate will be recognized at the Chicago convention. The time has come when Lily Whitism in the South must be over with. The Republican party cannot afford to put itself on record as drawing the color line in the case of any individuals or classes of citizens. White men who do not want to affiliate with black people in county and state conditions should go into the Democratic office, where they belong. Bishop I. B. Scott, who has his headquarters in Liberia, Africa, returned to America a few days ago, and is lived a hearty welcome at the hands of friends in New York. Bishop Scott is one of the strong forces of the race and has the respect and confidence of all who know him. He will receive a hearty welcome wherever he goes in this country. The protest of the bishops against unequal accommodations on the railroads in the South went a long way toward stirring the President and others up to act in securing justice in this important matter. --- Some of the strongest men in the race will soon assemble at Norfolk, Va., and Philadelphia, Pa., to meet the General Conferences of the African Methodist Episcopal Church and the African Methodist Episcopal Zion Church. These two organizations exert a powerful influence upon the welfare of the race. The same is true of the Colored Methodist Church. WHAT THE NEGRO PRESS HAS TO SAY Secretary Taft has a strong lead throughout the country and his nomination is an assured thing—Topka Plainlander. President Roswell has made it plain in conversation with a number of members of colored men that Congressman Hiram Johnson of the authorities at the White House, The fery Alabama has sown to the wind. Verily he is reaping the whirlwind—Pensacola Sentinel. The more the saler, sensible citizen looks into the character and meaning of the men who assail and blase the Negro, the cheap motiory, which they so persistently seek, is but an effort of men who are at heart the most arraunt cowards—Newport News Star. The President has read a lesson to the railbonds of the South and has impaired the federal to enter impaired suits against the account of direct complaints. If we are compelled to have separate accommodation and have to pay the same fare, the accommodations should at least be equal. - Navanach Triton. Hon. Wm. H. Tatt is still gaining with the people. There is no need to ask his nomination. It is expected that he will receive the nomination on the first ballot. We believe that Mr. Tatt is a pious man, and he will be a great get in line and save our grand old party. Let us look at the mistakes of the party as a family affair and adjust them likewise—Birmingham Reporter. S. Laiting Wittmeyer of Chicago has been appointed by President Kennedy, Assistant United States Attorney for the Northern District of Illinois, and will have charge of the naturalization business. This is an important high office given a colored term. The law has been broken in the past and Rosenveld can be credited with doing things. Springfield (HL) Forms.

Texas Freedom The Moor Guide came out in strong editorial condemning those who are talk about bolting the Republican party in case Tatt is nominated by the Presidency but not nominated by the Republican Party. Tatt a lot better than Tatt we are the standby leader of the country we are with him to the finish. Let us do our fighting beforehand and if we are defeated, get in the band wagon and do as much as any body for the party.

We can only salvation to the Republican party and it is there where we stand and stand. <u>Vancouver Appreciation</u> It is with hope that we have read that suggestions have been made by certain men of the Negro race that it Feekra should end of nomination at the House. We say no, principally because the Democratic party does not want us. There are brave South men who we know care that the Negro should be allowed to vote but they are not the entire Democratic party. As we look at it, the platform of the Democrat party is still strong. The Republican party has been reminded and there are still stalwart men in the state standing on a broad platform. If Feekra is nominated still be reminded of the importance of Certification Southern Reporter. The Democratic Negro Conference called by Montgomery for Boston Mass, and Reed by C. W. N. Scott of Boston, his Man Friday, was the greatest victory that has ever been attempted by a Democratic candidate. The Democratic candidate and the colored people in the country are wounded against him. Montgomery Trotter and W. H. Scott are known Negro Democrats, and it is strange to see colored men who might be Democrats. The representative colored men in this country don't take any stock in this Democratic side show. Cotchers and his followers have devised their allegiance to Brown in the event of W. H. Griffin's nomination. The statement of those who will support the nomination of the party Washington Bee For some months past it seems as if there is a studied and systematic effort to arouse the race fearing of the Negroes of this country against the President and the administration because of the action of the white man. This effort to arouse the race fearing is becoming too bitter and it should be stopped: For argument sake let us admit that the President acted hastily in the matter, does it follow that he should be held up with such viperation as the white man unreasonable oppressor and hater of the race. When a man takes the action is a man who, in the whole history of the country is the most conspicuous defender of the rights of the Negro. It would seem that the more intelligent of the race feels from the concession of President Roosevelt, as an error-only, and not the occasion for condemning him and so naulting his administration with such violent denunciations...Lexington (Ky.) Standard. Mr. Taft insists that the laws must be enforced against whites as well as blacks; that the forces which are working for economic reform in the South are all moving toward this principle, and that the laws should be settled in consonance with the constitution and its amendments. That position is impregnable and should have the effect of allowing certain doubles with him to be held in the light, and the stands simply for republication, which means that he stargets for law and justice. This as we understand him, is his doctrine. And we agree with him that the laws should be in the nation's bosss with us, in large measure, with the counterpart—the recognition by honest white men of honest black men to place in the footsteps as representatives. Secretary Taft has said the right work on this issue. - Omaha Enterprise. JUSTICE FOR COLORED SOLDIERS (From the New York Sun) Independent Pleased With Toft. We need to add no follow-up word or phrase to the measured and admirable article in which Mr. Clark has set forth the services. Mr. Taft has tendered to the country. It is a rich country, rich in man, that can offer so many suitable candidates for its Presidency; and it is a worthy country in which not one candidate appeals to the whose character and record do not appeal to the highest moral convictions of humanity. No loitering Maries and Sylla, no loose Methods can place our people. Every candidate could stand with Aristides the Just. Policies may divide the citizens, but they are one in their valuation of character. There is no evidence of that moral decay which has appeared when nations have fallen. We offer no present choice of one candidate over another, but we have the right to say that for wise experience and proved wisdom, as well as for stainless character and high ideals of the country, no candidate can surpass Mr. Taft. The officer may prove more available, and some may prove to be an equally wise President, but the nation will be fortunate if Mr. Taft is nominated and elected. He has wisdom and prudence and weight enough to be his own man, to guide his Cabinet, to avoid hasty decisions, to give good counsel to Congress, and strongly and wisely to conduct our foreign and our still more important colonial relations—New York Independent. NEGRO VOTERS FOR TAFT Citizens of Middle West Depot Impress- ment placed in the Knot—Our Next President. WASHINGTON, April 20—An impression, studiously created in the East, that Secretary Taft is opposed to the interests of the colored people of the country and that the colored people as a whole are opposed to him, has been largely disbelieved as a result of his trip, during the Middle West, where he was acclaimed as "Fourth President." On that trip he met and conferred with many of the leading colored citizens of the country through which he travelled. He asked him questions concerning his attitude toward them and he was quick to respond in a way that appeared to be entirely genuine. He said that he was not in favor of their disfraternization in the South, that he had been interested in their problems from his experience in the United States utilized with the highest levels of their race. At Louisville several hundred of them joined in the welcome extended to him by thousands of citizens of that city, by thousands of the galleries at the theatre in which they filmed the movies. They explained him again and again when he urged that the "grandfather" clans in the franchise laws of the Southern States were unconstitutional, and that such laws, if enforced at all, would have been against the whites as against the blacks. He made no reference to the race question in his addresses in the North, where that question is less vital, but to the representation of the audience at Louisville he debated at the University of North Carolina, progress in the acquisition of education and property by the great mass of colored people in the United States since the Civil War. Not the least of the owing given him at the conclusion of his speech were present. As Chloe is a large part of leading social services called upon Secretary Tatt in his apartments at the Auditorium, Amry and were asked a welcome by him. Though he was almost com- poned with amputes, periphrasms and connotations he told them he was glad to give them some of his time. He was frank with them. "The truth is, he told them, 'The rase question has occupied me ever since I was born, and I have been deeply on the subject and I was brought up with views which in the South would be considered radical. When I went to the University, I was told that the question of the proper settlement of rase differences and prejudices is one that I have had a great deal of interest in, and that it has been more important in its outweaves with that rase which has assumed to be superior, and in many cases has been more unjustifiable in a Christian herderry. "The progress that the colored race is making furnished ground for encouragement that I think we will have a right to feel. As they demonstrate their value to you, you will be able to earn a position which is recorded to them not because of sympathy with them. It is not sympathy but justice that you want. When you can impel respect and applause your values, you will earn a position which is recorded to them you can take to be about proper respect between the races is to make it to the interests of the white race to record to the colored race that position is earned is to make it to the interests of the black race. I am a lawyer of Chicago, one of the parties of colored men, informed Mr. Taft that the impression had gone abroad that he was in sympathy with the disfranchisement of the colored people in the District." "Not in the slightest," responded Secretary Taft. "My position is this, that the Southern men are obliged to keep within the Constitution, and if they do not they under the Federal Constitution are under the property qualification. There is neither the colored nor white race in the North has a right to compel, provided the law which is imposed shall be equally opposed against both." "We don't object to that," said Mr. Carey, "and we are ready to support any one for the President who will endeavor to that this is done. Of course we do that." "Of course, it is not," continued Mr. Tait. "I have and so before and will reiterate it now. If you will read my speeches you will see." Of course, if you take a part of a speech and leave out the audience who have not been quite as willing to be bring out the truth as they might have done in circulating parts of my speeches, my attitude may be misunderstood. You will refer to my friendships you will see that this is my position. I don't want to criticize the white citizens of the South so long as they remain within the Constitution but in applying that rule they have no right to respect the respect to the ignorance of the white men as compared with the ignorance of the colored men, for they both have to be evaluated on the same ground. When you do that you have no right to complain. I think you find that I in the slain lady lack in aced with you on that subject." The members of the delegation molded their present and the Secretary continued: "The truth is that they are most anxious to continue the continuation of fraud and violence in the disbandment of colored voters where white voters ought equally to be disbanded, says the moral foundation of the Constitution of fraud and violence to be disbanded in one thing and have the moral virus creep into their veins in everything else. I believe they are committed to the point that the law will be the colored men who have property or education will be given all the rights they are entitled to under the law that is constitutionally grandfathered because the constitutional government again, after a law may seem to be legal on its face and be enforced by an election officer in such a way that when colored men are told that no man about the Constitution that no man can answer, and then when a white man comes up just have him read a sentence. I don't mean an attorney but an a law firm formed that when it is executed it will apply equally to both men. "I have talked with a good many Mississippi in a man who appreciates the injutive done to your race and the necessity for changing conditions in the South in that regard. When I was a judge on the bench I came into contact with a lawyer who believed that a better feeling toward you was the white men in the South is growing, and that more and more they are in favor of an equal application of the law. When that is done—and that is what I will do—he will be given an opportunity to make himself valuable under any rule of franchise that applies equally to both races." We are satisfied and are with you," said the delegation of colored men as they NOTEP AND COMMENT "Tell it not in Gath! Publish it not in the streets of Akdson!" Congressman Livingston, of Georgia, advises the Democrats of his State to oppose the adoption of the Constitution, saying they may not need "Nego in the near future to defeat Tom Watson and his Populistic sambill poor white trash. That is a famous argument and should serve to vote the death out of the undemocratic Constitution of America, headed son of Cottonus in American politics the Negro voters of Georgia would like a chance to defeat in his ambition it is the Thielson stateman. Why? He used them once, as did Senator Tillman, whom he supported them from since, More strength to Congress in Livingston, arm and may the sweep of it paralyze the distrusthishing proposition with confusion! The Democrats of New York State have fallen 'ar from the masterful leadership of Martin Van Buren, Samuel J. Tilden and William J. Bryan, an outsider, to nitrate the difference between them growing out of their State convention. The man who thinks the world needs him and cannot go along without him is more numerous among Negroes than any other sort of people, especially in this country. A quiet thing about it is that all Negroes imagine that they are thinkers and leaders and that the world of movement is still and refuse to think and lead. And so the blind lead the blind and fall into the pits together. --- EDITOR MOORE AT POUGHKEEPSIE Glives an Interesting Addressee the A. M. E. Zilon Church. **(From the Poughkeepsie Star)** **Industrious Press** April 2-21. R. Moore, the founder and publisher of *The New York Times*, and publisher of the Colored American Magazine, who was the creator of the celebration of Loss's surrender to Grant, which was held April 14th, M. E. Zion Church spoke to the audience in a room opened with the singing of "The Star Spangled Banner" by the Queen City Glee Club. After prayer by the pastor, the group followed the Moonlight on the Lake in a plaza room, Mr. Moore, who was afterward introduced, made a most instructive address on how the colored people should use their privileges and opportunities as citizens, and addressed the address to his address with the closest attention. The Glee Club closed the overviews with the selection "Star of Night." A course supper was served at the address, the direction of a committee member. NEGRO VOTERS TO BE REPRESENTED It is gratifying to note the election of the Hon. Charles W. Anderson as alternate at large to the Republican Convention at芝加哥. He was the first time in history the Hon. Anderson of New York State that the Negro has been elected to such a representative position, and it goes to show that the G. O. K. of this State is appreciative of the Negro. He has been an alternate at large marks on the beginning of a new era in party organization. Mr. Anderson has been the leader of the Negro Republicans of New York State for the past 18 years. The race for the nomination will be the white Republicans on his selection. In the seventh congressional district of King's county Mr. Fred R. Moore was elected alternate delegate to the Chicago election from his election having been made without obstruction. The Anz. is glad it is able to make known to the Negro voters that the Republican party is giving them representation to which they are justly entitled. Members of Taft Colored League Address Letter to Voters of the Country. Boston, Mass., April. HOSTON, MASS., April To the Colored Republican of Massa To the Colored Representation of Massachusetts and the Country at Large; While not presuming to instruct, much less dictate to our heirthen, as to their duty in the present contest for the Republican nomination for President, yet duty to ourselves and the welfare of the race, and the still higher considerations of public policy, urge us to make the following statement: The colored people of the country have been accustomed more or less in times past to look toward Boston and Massachusetts for advice and counsel in every great crisis and fear. This is the natural difference paid to New England, in view of the fact that the anti-slavery agitation beginning here over a half-century ago led to their emancipation, and the cause of equal rights which finally found expression in the national Constitution had its strongest advocates here, and Massachusetts, to her fractions and institutions that abolished a law on an unlightened public sentiment could do so, every distinction of race and color. There is a grave danger, however, that many of our colored brethren throughout the country may be ill-advised and misled by a small coterie, professional agitators directed by a thoroughly discredited editor of a colored ("yellow") Democratic sheet, who seizes upon every incident in current affairs to the detriment of its best interests, and assume to speak for ten millions of American freemen. The campaign of the past 12 months, and more particularly the contest waged in the Republican conventions to choose delegates to the national convention of the Republican party, has been a serious effort to the real position of no insiderable number of respectable colored here and elsewhere. The wise, ill-considered, intemperate abuse and denunciations of the administration of President Roosevelt finds no response or favor, and is absolutely disapproved by a majority of the party. We must not wait for what President Roosevelt and his administration have stood for, for our allies will be for the whole country of which we are a part. One unfortunate incident of a long and ill-disposition administration should not blind our sense of justice and fair play to one whose genius is so broad and general that he can be broad gained and geniused. The President has not only shown himself friendly and well disposed toward the colored citizens, but has enlightened in every way to inspire them with the highest ideals of good citizenship, with hope and courage for the future by leading public opinion to the support of the detriment against any man on account of his color; that each individual, regardless of race, should be treated and dealt with upon his merits as a man and citizen." The spondial determination and courage with which he stolwed by Dr. Crum for collector of the port of Charleston, South Carolina, sending his nomination to the Senate time and time again until it was finally confirmed, should not be forgotten, that the Southern State is directly the for right and justice is to be found in the Indiana post-office affair, where he closed the office rather than surrender the right of a woman of color to hold that office. The prosecution of the numerous prolapse cases by district attorneys under the direction of the Attorney-General of the Southern State directly the for his own initiative. He has not only appointed colored men to offices previously held by them under other administrations, but he has really broken new ground in the matter of Federal appointments by naming colored citizens to high and responsible judicial positions, notably Judges D. C. and S. Carroll of Washington, D. C. and the department of Government W. H. Lewis at Boston, Mass.; James A. Colb. at Washington, D. C.; and S. Laing Williams, of Chicago, Ill. The appointments of Charles W. Anderson to the responsible and important office of Collector of Internal Revenue for the Southern District of New York, and to the District of Columbia, Ohio, Auditor of the Navy, are only other notable instances of his policy of treating each individual upon his merits. It would seem to be unfair, unjust, and ungrateful for our colored citizens, because of the single Brownville instance to literally turn their backs upon a good friend as has occupied the Presidential chair since Lincoln. What we may be able to do is to be generally as to the injustices of the Brownville incident, no fair-minded person can believe for a moment that the net of the President as commander-in-chief of the army of the United States in discharging certain members of the 24th Colored Infantry was aimed at the race of the people generally. We observe that the Brownville incident raises no race issue; the President would have made the same order if the individuals had been members of any other race or nationality. We deplore the attempt, persistent, distant, noisy, on the part of certain colored men to make a race issue of it, a common feature of certain politicians who have been using the incident to play the game of politics for their own personal interests. We should not forget also that the President sent the troops to Brownsville disregarding the protests of the people of the place, thus showing his intention and his ardent desire to treat colored soldiers just as any other American soldiers. It is important to remember that with regard to the new famous order both in and out of Congress, by politicians and race agitators, that no word of complaint or criticism has reached the public car, coming from the soldiers themselves against the President or any of their superior officers. They have shown themselves to be good soldiers, applauding the President for his good order and discipline in the army. We believe in the end that the Brownsville incident will be finally settled to the satisfaction of each individual concerned. We have been advised by gentlemen who assume to speak for us on all occasions that, in the event of the nomination of any man for President who is supported by the present administration, we should oppose him to the extent of voting for the democratic nominee. In the part of wisdom gained in view of the attitude of the national Democratic party and more particularly the attitude of the local Democrats in the Southern States with regard to all great questions of civil and political rights which concern ourselves as a race? Has the Democratic party offered to restore the soldiers to the rolls of the army? If so, we have not been informed of the fact. Does the Democratic party propose to give us more rights and more representation in the affairs of the Government in the Public domain? If so, who has promised it? Lincoln no doubt said that the middle of the stream was no place to swan horses. We have been urged by many self-ordained if not divinely appointed leaders to oppose the nomination of Hon. William H. Taft by the Republican party for President of the United States, solely and absolutely because of the Brownville incident. He has been found by ancestry, character, attalism, and experience to If they believe with other American citizens that Secretary Taft is the best appointed man by capacity, training, personnel, and experience for the high office of President, they should support him just as other citizens. Most of all, we compose our brethren not to lose courage and trust. The signs of hope and promise for us as American citizens were never better than now. Let us not forget our friends or in a moment of passion immobly surrender to our enemies. In the words of Lincoln, "With malice toward none, with charity for all, with firmness in the right as God gives us to see them. In us strive to prove ourselves worthy of American citizenship."

FASTER AT ST. PHILIP'S Although this page is devoted chiefly to "Music and the Stage," in this week's issue space will be given to St. Philip's Church, and it is hoped that the serious-minded won't set up a cry of sacrilege. Then, too, there was enough pretty music to be heard at St. Philip's Easter Sunday morning to warrant the musical program presented coming under the "Music and the Stage." It was in doubt, the musical program was truly entertaining, which deserves mention on any dramatic page. Easter Sunday is the one day in the year when most all the people (not just a few) go to church. It is the one day out of the 365 days when people live they are thirty-born and so themselves to worship and assist in appreciate Easter services—always beautiful, always impressive. Some person was mean enough to easily say last Sunday that those "one-year" churchgoers would not attend church even on Easter was it not that they wanted to show their new clothes, but such a remark is not entirely of sarcasm and it may not have been had the speaker worn new clothes. But to return to St. Philip's Church, despite the showers that threatened to do injury to new hats and dresses, many who attend church every Sunday and many who go to church every fifteen Sunday, relating, of course, from East to Eastern, pursued to St. Philip's Church to participate in the annual Easter services. There are some Sundays when you have no difficulty in getting a seat at St. Philip's, but last Sunday it was different. The S. K. R. O. sign was in evidence and seats were at a premium long before services commence, who were not as infrequent as to fail to set inside the church and were unable to go elsewhere. Many young ladies who were pretty Easter bonnets were compelled to stand in the rear of the auditorium throughout the entire service. One young lady that the young ladies had been late in dressing was much enough to ininter that she remained away late on purpose in order to have a grand march down the aisle all by herself in order to show the members of her sex what she had new for Easter. If such was the young lady was compelled to remain in the rear until communion was administered. Then all were too lonely engaged in the services to notice what the folks were wearing. It was not so hurtin' and discouraging to some as it was in others who were compelled to wear. To have a new hat new dress and stand was not half so bad as to have just a new pair of shoes and stand. Especially nowadays when many forget all about arithmetic, when they go to the shoe store, at least when they are to pay their rent which is now a new job in the real world of clothes going into four; there is little wonder that there were many souls dressing on such an impressive occasion. From newspaper accounts congregations throughout different parts of the country experienced the same difficulty as did men at St. Philip's Church in New York. The ushers were at their wits and to seat their Easter congregation. Paws usually accoumlating six persons would hold no more than four, providing the four wore "Merry Widow" hats. It is bad enough when wearers of the "Merry Widow" hat are seated, but fainting several females in front of you wearing two feet three in diameter, beckoned with a miniature flower garden. Under the above conditions you will not only find it difficult to see them, also cut them in a difficult way. Widow's hat in a difficult give you a merry time if you chance to widen two or three feet of one. A lady's parasol is not in it. As has been said before, Easter services are always beautiful and impressive, and last Sunday was no exception to the rule. Roy, Mr. Shop's sermon, in which he spoke of the importance and logical discourse. In his pointing of pictures he was always in keeping with the cheerful and bright surroundings, superimposed by the presence of sweet-scented flowers whose aroma wafted to and fro, by lighted candles that cast a mellow light around the altar to say nothing of the daily-dressed congregation. Choirmaster and Organist Holin should be congratulated on the musical program, whose mass is beautiful to hear, but requires more than one rehearsal on the part of the choir to sing it effectively. To teach a choir composed in part of boys, to sing Gounel's mass is a praiseworthy piece of work on the part of Choirmaster Holin. To sing a mass is far different from singing an ordinary song that is written for commercial purposes solely. During congregation "Holy, Holy, Holle" was sung by the choir, with instrumental accompaniment, and it was, indeed, a musical treat aside from any of the other numbers. While the members of the congregation doubtless expended large sums for Easter attire, nevertheless they remembered that they were expected to give an Easter offering in the form of coin of the realm. That they did not leave every cent they possessed on Broadway the day before was evidenced by the amount collected in the morning: Over $800 was realized in this offertery alone. St. Philip's Church was not the only Négro Church where Easter services were held. In every church in New York appropriate sermons were delivered and beautiful music sung. But the writer wended his way to St. Philip's church, and that the hour had been for weeks rehearsing for the occasion and had prepared an A1 musical program; partly because he found himself in a crowd making for St. Philip's Church, and partly because he knew he would appreciate the Easter services in toto. On Sunday at St. Philip's should inspire all those who go to church only once a year (as has been charged) to attend with more regularity. Post-Lenten Season Helps Business at Pekin PEKIN, April 22--Both the two act burletta "The Follies of 1908" and the "merry musical mix-up" "The Rehearsal," seem to be well liked by the patrons of the Pekin Theatre. In "The Follies of 1908" Shotton Brooks and Marshall as Billiams and Baker, respectively; Jerry Mills as Floor Ends Right, Ras Jones as Fighting Bob Revs, Charles Gilpin as Ned Rover, Allie Gilliam as Mr. Budley, Nettie Lewis as Peaches Brighteyes, Lottie Grady as Ida Overton Balker, Elvira Johnson as Mell Havis and Josephine Doyne as Bell Jack Black do especially and get all out of the parts that could be expected.

Location A. Brooks and Terry colored players from Chicago several weeks ago with a new to experimenting as to the possibilities of installing a Negro play-house in this city for good. They have put on a number of plays, notably the queen of the Jungle" and the queen of the forest "Norfolk," and seem to have caught on immensely with the public. Although their patronage is not solicited, several white persons can be seen in the audience at each performance.

Elks' Vaudeville Entertainment and Ballo Big Success On three different occasions Monday evening did it look as if the vaudeville performance at Madison Square Garden, conducted under the management of Manhattan Lodge, No. 45, of Elks, would be Dan Michaels was the first offender when he impersonated Bert Williams. He seemed to particularly please the large audience in his dancing, and it was necessary for Black Carl to announce that the program was too long to warrant enclosure. Outstreet No. 2, game along when Jack Johnson was introduced as the next champion of the world. Twas then nineteenth of the people, women included, across the masses and cheered so insistently that it was found necessary to stop them for a crowd would arrest all for disturbing the peace. Johnson made a short but effective speech in which he informed the members of his race that he was going to Europe to challenge Burns for the championship of the world that he thought would be his. He accepted and hosted the best man would win. It was some time before the people got over hysteria, and after they had been quieted spasm No. II took place after the Memphis students had performed a musical stunt or two. Under the direction of Joe Johnshe these well-known performers, including the popular patented assisted by Hattie Hopkins, Tom Fletcher and two dancing girls. Several vocal and instrumental numbers were introduced, and the finale was a red hot M. MAZZIE BUSH, BANDANNA LAND CO. finish with dancing and music. There is no reason why the Memphis student should not enter vaudeville. They would in all probabilities make a decided hit. There were many other good acts on the program which were enthusiastically received. Among them Irving Jones, Mortal Ringel, Williams and Geppelt. The latter is位ating George Walker, N.

The vanderbilt entertainment and ball was given by the local body of Elks to the vanderbilt endowment fund. The entertainment committee, composed of Will A. Humphries, chairman; William K. Banks, F. S. Baumann; Wintfred 4' C. Thomas; Harry Martin; Jackson, should be appointed to their successful management of the affair. "Bendanna Land" In Brooklyn Monday evening Williams and Walker opened at the Majestic Theatre, Brooklyn, for a week's engagement, and at their initial performance books all records for attendance. Even standing room was at a promenade, and every box in the house was occupied. From present indications the week will be the largest in the history of the Majestic Theatre. The musicians are playing to Broadway prices. Smart Set to Close Season in Atlantic City CINEMAS, PN. April 22 - All Chester was theater wild the first three days of this week as S. H. DuPuy, who owns considerable property in the town and is interested in other business enterprises here, appalled with his Soar' Set Company and the musical comedy the "Black Publician." The company did big business the three days it was in Chester. It is in Atlantic City the variance of the week, closing the season there. "Black Patt' Co. Touring Indiann. Prent, IND.

The Smart Set closed here Saturday night to what was the biggest week of the season at the Columbia Theatre. The company made a big hit with the Jerseymen, commencing with its initial performance. The S. R. O. sign was in evidence several times during their engagement. An event of more than unusual importance was the banquet given by the citizens of Newark in honor of the Smart Set Company. The affair took place on Thursday evening at Randolph's banquet hall, and was attended by over 300 people. Caterer Garrett served one of his most enjoyable supporters, and the whole company was unanimous in voting the affair a great success. After dinner dancing was inudged in until the wee small bours. Henry M. Randolph, one of the leading citizens of Newark, was the moving spirit in this event, aided and ahetted by Dr. James A. Wormley, Thomas Wallace Swan and James H. Woodley. Rosalini's "Stubat Water" (creditably Nunn.) BOSTON, April 22—Rosaini's "Stabat Mater" was rendered last Thursday evening at Ebenezer Church, West Springfield street, under the direction of Theodore Drury. It was a very creditable rendition and the large audience appeared to be highly pleased. Drury was quiet and difficult, yet the solosists did themselves proud. Miss Duisy Allen, of New York, was the star of the evening. The work of Mrs. Ida Itoins, Miss Goins, Messrs. T. Wilcott Swan, George McMahon and Fred P. White also deserve favorable mention. Misses Porta Bird, Bessie Lee, Bessie V. Mottor and Counts Farley were users. "Dr. Jekyl and Mr. Hyde" under the direction of Mr. L.

On Easter Day the 5 and 6 o'clock celebration were well attended. Though it rained, at 11 o'clock the direction of Mr. D. J. Elledge never better and members of the choir certainly did credit to themselves and their instructor. The children's service at 4 p. m. was of special interest though carols will be sung next Sunday at 3 p. About 15 minutes before service in the evening there was scarcely a seat to be had. The rector preached at the church and in the evening on "Life After Death." It was indeed a glorious Easter for St. Philip's and the services of the day were freely spoken of in a most gracious manner by the large crowds who witnessed the. G. F. S. Branch of St. Philip's Church surprised Miss Harriet Willey, their most dearly beloved associate, on Easter Monday night. The members of the church engaged in social enjoyment with her in St. Philip's Parish Hall. She was presented with a purse with which to get something which she can keep as a constant reminder to her of the love and appreciation with her members and rector have for her. MARRIED.

Bunch, of Bad, Performers—Many Names and Many Guests PHILADELPHIA, Pa., April 14—We have been studying during the last two days the performances of the animal circus which has been exhibiting in this city. It is called by various names Afro-American National Relief Association, Afro-American National Protest Association, Afro-American National Graffier Congress, and what not. The performers in this circus are the same who exhibit regularly in New York, Boston, Philadelphia and in any other city where they can get money to pay car fare. A few of the names of the principal performers are familiar to you reader; the two trotters, S. I. Corothers, Bishop A. Walters, James H. Hayes, B. W. Arnett, J. Max Barber, Byron Gunner, W. H. Scott of Boston and on to the end. These people have been in the business by the end of antics, for the last six or eight months, and there was nothing new on the program in Philadelphia. It was the same old thing. It was given out that same twenty-seven States were given out in this meeting who could represent any number of States without difficulty. J. Max Barber could represent Georgia and all the States between Georgia and Illinois, and all the States between Illinois and New York, in fact, Mr. Barber who is an editor without a job, is ready and willing to represent any State and anything on any occasion where he can be involved in the jumping-jack W. H. Scott, of Boston, another gentleman without a church or without a job or without viable means of support, can do the same thing. It is said on the ground that anyone who is willing to exhibit again in Chicago and in other cities, but pudding by what we hear whispered in the air, is a question whether the money will be forsomething much longer to pay for. That those who are responsible for the hard cash are beginning to see that no results except bluster are forthcoming. Crocus. LAKE SHORE NOTES.

Miss Eun' Burleigh, a teacher in a New york school, is in the city spending her Easter break at the residence of her relatives. Although she enjoys her activities. Although she enjoys her activities. New York, a visit to her old home in Erie is well appreciated by her. Quite a number of social functions were given in Easter at Sagertown, Pa. THE WIRZ MONUMENT. that many ex-Confederate have protested against perpetuating the revocation of Wira: but we were already quite sure that no Southern man—at least no Southern man who bore arms for the erection of a monument to a common male-factor. Of the 50,000 prisoners under Wira's care, fully a third died in the dreadful, bathsome pens where they were kept, and the rest of Wira is not that he gave them insufficient food. At a time when General Lee's own soldiers were nearly starving, it was evident enough that abundant food could not be furnished to captive enemies. But when General Lee allowed his victims the enjoyment of fresh air and pure water. Instead of this he budded them together under conditions of indescribable filthiness, enclosed the brook which ran through the town, and he saw the wretched skeletons with hair and beards matted with ordeal and dying by the hundreds every week. he glanced over their misery, and declared: "I am killing more Yun-chao here than Lee is killing at the cont." We commend these facts to the Georgia Daughters of the Confederacy, and we would remind them of something else that is a matter of the past of the Union prisoners in 1861, that a distinguished Georgian, Mr. Alexander H. Stephens, Vice President of the Confederacy, wrote to another well-known Georgian, Mr. George Cobburg that the prisoners be released and sent North under a strict parole, since to keep them in Andersonville was infamous. To this suggestion General Cobburg represents the opinion of humane and honorable men who were Southerners and Georgians. When the Georgia Daughters of the Confederacy wielded their monument, it will not be a memorial to Witz, but rather a lasting proof of the vindictiveness, the narrow-mindedness, and the ignorance of which fact, we do not for a moment suppose that the Georgia Daughters of the Confederacy care anything for Witz. They have singled him out to use the memorial as a marker and all through the North, and they wish to gratify an undying feeling of resentment. When they hear what Northern men and women are singled out for lighted; for they will have done just what they meant to do—that is, to touch us on the raw. Nevertheless, we may venture to point out to them that they Witz's an excuse for reviving bitter feelings. There is another man connected with the story of the Civil War who is a Confederate soldier. His name in fact is never spoken of except in fact. We are surprised that the Georgia Daughters of the Confederacy should have overlooked him, and more lofty monument to him. His name is John Wilkes Booth. CONCORD BAPTIST CHURCH. Larre Attendance, Fine Music and Gene- ronics. Contributions. Make Easter Easter.

THE NEW YORK AGE: THURSDAY, APRIL 23, 1908 JUSTICE IN FLORIDA COURTS Court Rules That Negro Had Right to Have Members of His Own Race on Jury. There is an impression shared by many that the relation between the white and black races in this country is becoming less amicable and more and more uncharged with injustice. The basis for this unchargedness is the traumatic and sensational events, in particular the riots in Springfield, Illinois, and in Atlanta, Georgia. The memory of those events is becoming faint in the minds of many. The court remains. A dramatic event will have an effect upon public opinion which statistics, more significant but less picturesque, will altogether fail to produce. In the horrors at the work of a black man from the annual number of lynchings is forgotten. The fundamental mistake in this is in picking out a startling episode or a reckless utterance and regarding it as typical of the way the Black Hand assassin does not furnish a true index to the Italian character. Aaron Burr is not an exhibitionist, but a man of the way. So, if we wish to find out what an assassin can democracy has done with the Negro, we do not search, if we are wise, into the chain-gang of Georgias or into the life of a booker whose achievements of a Booker Washington or a W. E. B. DuBois. This is not that hopeless optimism that refuses to see the something that is so difficult to understand wisdom which whether it is applied to the cultivation of fruit or to the breeding of live stock or to the education of a race of men, sees in the most advanced progeny the present The presence of two distinct races, diverse in social heredity, separated by differences in moral and social development, may lead to opposing possessing, under a democratic government, equal civil rights before the law, has created a problem quite without precedent. The conditions should bring injustice at times upon the members of one race and embody at times a menace to the civilization of the other. In determining the solution of this problem we are not to take counsel of those who are swayed by a grievance or governed by a fear. We are rather to make concessions in accommodation to those who have made the greatest progress. If those at the front falter or retreat, the prospect is omnious; but if they advance, we may be sure that the It is such coerciveness as this, that the ruffian or the mob, in what direct or American people are moving, The Outbreak. Register Vernon and Dr. Washington. NASHVILLE, TENN. April 2—The Hon. William T. Vernon, register of the United States Treasury, has been to Nassau here to warn the students how to deliver the principal address to the graduating classes of Medbury Medical College. Tuesday evening, March 21st. This school is the leading institution for Negroes, and its exercises, which took place in the spacious Ryman Auditorium on Summer street, were probably the best ever seen here. Early in the morning, a group of Negroes could be seen making their way to this building. By 7:30 clock, the selffire which has a best quality of 10,000 was comfortably filled. The program began by a grand processional march and 108 intelligent-looking colored men and women marched gracefully from the reception Fishpik Isaac Lane, D. D., of the Colored Methodist Church, then led in a fervent prayer. Following the prayer an excellent choir music was presented to the address of the pastor. When the latter had finished and had taken his seat, all at once a deafening prolonged and applause went up and the people, who by this time had been so exhausted by the building of its kind in the South, saw for the first time in hospitable Nashville the sutely Vernon. Anid an applause unprecedented here this dignified gentleman, who was the first to be seated and were seated the dean and president of the institution, the Hon. J. C. Napier, Bishop C. H. Phillips, D. D., LL. D., Dr. R. F. Bord, the South's most eminent physician, Teen H. Hom, T. W. Binford, of Alabama; Dr. J. M. Harris, Missouri's leading physician, and other prominent men of Nashville and vicinity, were issued with this incident and finally the pharmaceutical valedictorian proceeded with his speech. The dental and medical valedictorian then had their say—the latter pinnning a delightful rose upon the left lap of the coat, which again brought forth applause. Dean G. W. Hubbard then, in tense language, introduced the man of the hour, the speaker of the evening. It was some 10 minutes later, when the man finally ended, however, and the Hn. Mr. Vernon delivered an address of 28 minutes directly to the class. All who heard have reached the common verdict that at all times choice and in his tribute to our common country he indulged in a flight of florid rhetoric, the most beautiful expression possibly ever pronounced. The man was frequently and loudly applauded and the press of Nashville was profuse in its praise of the effort, which countryside shown the Washington square is a most excellent 4 clock dinner at the beautiful and costly Greenberg's MACY RE Hair Tonic and DandruffCure, Macy Re Massage Cream and Skin Food, Mme.

REPROACH OF WATERTOWN Merted Rebuke to a Prejudiced National Guard Organization, There are Watertowns in the south, but the Watertown where a National Guard organization refuses to parade on the occasion of a visit of the Governor of the State because the marching music is to be furnished by a band of the Twenty-fourth Infantry, a Negro regiment; is in northern New York. The band, it is admitted, can play patriotic music probably as any band in the United States or as any band in the United States of uncommon excellence; Nothing could be urged against the repute and efficiency of the regiment with which the band is connected. Indeed the Twenty-fourth in the army. We should like to call to the attention of the good people of Watertown, some of whom no doubt distinguished themselves in the Spanish War, an occasion that is still remembered today. Twenty-fourth Infantry sounded very sweet in the ears of grateful white soldiers. Perhaps some of them thought of Watertown. It was in the late summer of 1863 that a group of 188 men, all that was left of it, was leaving the fever camp at Silicon and the land was playing, under the roofs of the national colors, the familiar airs as a farewell to a some duly glorious man, such, however, there is cared for any record. There was, it is true, nothing special about the performance of that duty. It consisted only of nursing the sick, and brushing pestilence. Twenty-four of the men, no more, reported well every day. Of sixty-five who originally volunteered to nurse the sick there was hardly one, but the unmuffered the fever and others stepped in their place with good will and uncomplainingly. Some of the officers died, and more of the men "They bore all bravely and patiently, faithfully doing what the could, said Mary." The men now a brigadier-general on the retiree list. In the fight at San Juan the Twenty-four, forming with the Ninth and Thirteenth Infantry, Wikoff's brigade, came to the aid of the Ford Kent called it with admiration in his report—had lost eighty-eight officers and men in killed and wounded. The very day of the capitulation, the first hill, the Twenty-fourth was ordered to the fever camp and marched at one down the trail. The duty done at Siboney no man can regard without a thrill. The officer was finer than that which was displayed and glorified on the field of San Juan. What would the American people have done if the Twenty-fourth Regiment when it silenced behind, but not its memoirs? Lenten Social at Waterbury The service in the A. M. P. Zion Church was well attended. Rev. C. Fairfax, A.M., D.D., preached an inspiring sermon at 10.30 a.m. m.
