HOSTON, June 15—Las: Thursday afternoon June 11, at his splendid home, 528 Columbus avenue, Mr. Joseph Lee, inventor of the bread machine and the proprietor of Squamatum Inn, passed away. After having gained a business reputation second to none for shrewdness, resourcefulness and square dealing, a member of that old and passing school of Negro business men always pointed to be friends of the race as an example of Negro capability, the ability of Negro Lee in the field of professors business when he had hardly passed the prime of life, is a distinct loss to the race.
Coming to Boston over thirty years ago he has invented the break-making and the bread-crumbling machines which he daily used to bake biscuit trust. He has been the proprietor of several of the large and far-famed hostories hereabout, such as the Woodlawn Park Hotel in Auburnale and the Fashion and Design and an outing resort for political meetings. At different times in his busy career he has owned and managed a large and busy catering establishment and as an outing resort in Normansea. Park and at the Mechanics' fair. For many years he was treasurer of the St. Mark's Literary and it was larger than the popular expence he inspired that St. Mark's just became the race institution in Boston that it is. At the time of his death he was president of the Bachens, the exclusive organization of Boston's colored
Mr. Lee, born in Charleston, South Carolina, would have been sixty years of age on the 4th of July. He was married on May 12, 1921, to Miss Harold, a baltimore teacher, who has ever been his cannest helper, and one of Boston's social leaders. Four children have been the result of the union: Mr. Howard Lee, Harvard 1893; Miss Gesson Lee, St. and maturing school; Miss Teresa Lee, School of Physical Culture, 1894, and at present teacher in the high and manual training schools of Washington, D.C.; and Miss Marka Lee, a graduate this year of Toxton high school. He is survived by numerous children in Boston, New York and Charleston.
Boston School Graduates.
This has been the work of high and grammar school graduations in greater Boston. There is scarcely a school in the Hull without its quota of bright and promising Negro students and of these a good number are graduating. Hildes and Ganderson seem to be popular and prominent in their class affairs, for example, in the High School graduating classes one is a class president, another was captain of his school football team, winning still another class award, and still another was class president. The first of these high schools to hold exercises was the Cambridge English High School in Sanders, Theater, Harvard University, last Tuesday night. The colored students graduating were Miss Harriet Baker, Miss Harriet Shaw, and Mr. Levynch Whelan.

His brake, which can be adjusted to elevated, street level, has been patented. He has piven his merit. The inventor claims both economy and greater traffic protection for his invention. Mr. Jackson has already been offered a considerable sum by a Canadian corporation, but nothing near its real value. He has the League headquarters on Chandler street. The home of Court Officer Win.

Greely contest.
Warmth was Governor of Louisiana—a carpet-bagger in 1872 Pinchback was Lieutenant Governor. They were both in New York to attend a "band dinner," an election bill that would take the election machinery out of the Governor's hands. If it became a law, Warmth would lose control of the State, in all probability. Grant would suffer. Pinchback was the Pinchback man wanted the bill signed. Pinchback, as Lieutenant Governor, could sign them in the absence of the Governor. He shipped out of New York, unknowingly to Warmth, and burgled the law, not what it is now. He was delayed six hours in Pittsburgh and 12 hours in Cincinnati, waiting for a train. Warmth did not learn of his Lieutenant Governor's dish for home until the next day. He then chartered a special bus to visit it. A result finally won for Warmth.
When Pinchback's train reached Canton, Miss., a train messenger announced a telegram for him. The Lieutenant Governor, not suspecting the trick, demanded the telegraph, but the messenger had to leave to go to the depot office to get it.
Pinchback hurried into the station, and as he stepped inside the door was shunned, shut, and bolted. He re realized what it meant, and dashed for a window. He could not he get up his train as Pinchback arrived on the platform cursing in the most picturesque Southern style. Governor Warmth's special pulled in. "What you old sounded," yelled out Warmth, alighting from his train, "what in h---I are you doing here?" Pinchback looked up and shouted: "What in h---I are you doing here?" am after you," said the Governor. "What am I got me," sorefully said Pinchback.
"It was a dead heat from there to the capital," laughed Pinback black yesterday, "the heat nothing," said Warmth. "And heat ended," chuckled Pinback, "the greatest handrail race ever pulled off in the Unit." States. Pinback was afterward Governor of Louisiana, since losing Warmth, and was asked to step down, but never took his seat. The contest lasted for three years and finally Pinback was defeated by 4 to votes. Governor Warmth, who was an Illini, remained in the South after the reconstruction period and is to-day one of the big plantation owners south of New Orleans. Pinback finally drifted to New York and is now here helping to boast Secretary Taft—Chicago Inter-Ocean
RACE MEN PRESENT
Marked Improvement in Personnel of Negro Delegates "Anti-Talters" Furnish Spectacular Side of Situation
CITACO, June 18.—The field of politics has been crowded with dramatic incidents during this week preceding the Republican National Convention. It is said that for since the Blaine-Grant contest of over twenty years ago has so much interest and enthusiasm in pre-convention politics been displayed.
On the streets, in hotel corridors, in the vestibule of the Coliseum annex, where the contest cases are being fought out, men of all conditions of life are joining each other, sometimes good naturally and other times with a seriousness that borders on the benignment. It seems as if every name that you can mention among the big men who are asking for history here and is doing something either in harmony with or antagonistic to the many things that are being done. Sometimes long-standing venerans in government authority, jailers and "political

backs" whose car fare has been paid by some ambitious stateman, freely mingle with each other in true democratic fashion. It is a more interesting scene and is well worth a long distance travel, just to be here in a backpack on a journey of mobs and harbours for a standing place in this the greats of Republics.
This is one hour when the Afro-American feels the full importance of his importance, talks to formerly about and admires him, makes him a part of and in all things he is competent and equal.
There is a position among that society as indeed in that society as in attendance as delegates one of a higher grade than Germany. E. Governor Pinebock, Prof. R. K. Wright, of Georgia, J. E. Bish, of Arkansas, J. M. Mason Vance, of Louisiana Walter Cohen, Lawyer Johnson, of Alabama, and others all declare that there is a marked improvement in the personnel of the present group of attorneys, in the substance of intelligence and character of Lawyers, doctors, bankers, school teachers, business men and college graduates constitute the majority of those who are part in the Assisting grade politics.
The spectacular sale of the situation is supplied by the news presence of the anti-Taft continental, of colombia, whom What they back in manners they make up in noise and fistfulness. The news man, the Negro democracy are here and are doing their utmost to be heard for their much speaking" and to render an account of their stewardship to their generous managers in the East. Some of these talk like men seemed to be possessed by a great indignation meeting every hour and if they should accomplish all that they promise there will be but little left for the National Convention to do. They seem to have a little money which they do not claim to have earned by honest toll. They have large men of who have to tomorrow to their career of usefulness. The deep absorbing and traditional sentiment of the American Negro is not thus to be trilled with and charged from home to hour as temporary occasions demanded. The American Negro does not help to the Republican party, but rather to the Negro people in this country. Republican principles and Republican history is the one force or thing in American life that solidifies and holds together the Negro people in this country. In nothing else are they so individually united. In nothing else are they so strongly a member of the National affairs. A race that can be saved from its political moorings by
some fancied-wrong or temporary offence will never be counted on by other races as fit for fellowship in the big undertakings for human advancement. In the case of the skinned states take one feels reminded to say: "After the Browns audif, the deluge!" On the theory that nothing is impossible $\hat{a}$ is possible for an American Nekro to be a Democrat, but it is hard to believe that such a one can escape the horrors of the American system, almost inhuman, to love and trust your enemies, despite the Biblical injunction to the contrary. This does not mean by any means that the Republican party monopolizes all the virtues, or has done so with some day, when men and women of large political sense are in control and in obedience to its own deep sense of self respect, be able to be a more intimate and compelling part of the Republican party, masters and leaders, intimately of mere beneficiaries as we are today.
The political sense of the American Negro has not grown and crystallized into strong agencies for offensive and purposes defense so as to render an American and economic forces of the day. Frederick Doughlass used to impressively say: "It is a foul bird that will dole its own nest." We have helped to make and keep the. Buildiful part of the American people in the civil and military and maintenance has been vital and important to the history and development of the American people. We all feel the need of some big man of state-manlike grasp of things that are important to the real Negro state-man has not yet appeared. Since the death of the great Doughlass the Negro has had many political opportunities in his grass, but we have not yet learned how to use them. It is necessary to look to the South as the only place where Negro Congressmen can

CENTENNIAL ANNIVERSARY OF RELIEF SOCIETY
Two Hundred People of New York and Vicinity, Including Members and Guests Listen to Brilliant Addresses by President E. V. C. Eato, Counsellor Webster, Collector Anderson and Others
The impinging and dignified service at St. Philip's P. E. Church on Sunday evening, June 7, last, inaugurated a celebration which established an epoch positively unique in the history of the Afro-American in the city of New York.
It was the beginning of the centennial anniversary of the New York African Society for Mutual Relief, which was followed the next night by a formal meeting at St. Philip's parish house and on Wednesday, 10th inst., with a banquet at Carnegie Hall.
Between and 8 and 9 p.m. on carnegie tables, emptied their occupants at the hall, and the care and expense entailed by the absolutely charming gowns which beckoned the ladies was a matter of remark. The banquet hall was a bower of flowers and the care and expense entailed by large pants, gave the place almost an Oriental charm. The men wore the conventional evening dress and when Toastmaster Charles H. Lansing called upon the Rev. William T. Dixon to bless the asshole, the picture of flowers, filled with names, data and detail that only could have been secured after much research. Jerome B. Peterson responded

In "Charles W. Anderson, in speaking for the Empire State," sustained his well-known reputation as an orator and scholar, and praised the State and the country in truly patriotic fashion. He showed that our hundred years ago this country had but fifteen States, while there were 45; that the State had a population of 900,000, of which 15,000 were slaves, while to-day it has a population not less than 125,000 of which all a fraternity of 12,000 has held of the times both financially and morally.

Master Anderson J. Campbell Jr. opened the feast of reason and wit with a violin solo, and earned an encore. Then to Mr. E. V. C. Eato, who for one-quarter of a century has been the president of the society, the toastmaster gave the task of hostility and humiliation to many trials and tribulations of his organization. President Eato happily showed that the founder, among whom he mentioned William Hamilton, James Cheeseman, Ray Varkin, Carmen and others, built wider than those bows, were really contemporaries with the founding of some of our churches. As an evidence of the thrift and financial side he said that in eight years the society paid $5,430 to him and that in twenty-five years no member had left its meetings in anger.
With this money they purchased a flat in 61th street, and other reality, which he said to day at a fair appraisal, heesti drew a portrait of himself, drawing an annual interest of 11 per cent. It was then shown that the society had lived during the rise and fall of Napoleon and Lincoln, and worked with Garrison, Summer, Bonglass and Brown, the history of the United States, and in 1827 observed the State change her black laws and emancipate her slaves. He then compared the city with twenty churches and missions, 75 preachers, and more than a baker's dozen of lawyers, more than a doctor's dozen of lawyers, and confessions, holding approximately a million dollars in real estate. He closed with a short sketch of the life of one of his members, Curtis Alexander, who died in Harlons, and which was the first relicous, of the wealthy in this city, and earned honorary tory of New York.

ON UNCLE SAM'S PAY ROLL
Forty-eight Negro Carriers and Clerks in Mobile Postoffice.
MOBILE, ALABAMA. June 15—It may not be known to the general public how well Negroes are recognized in the Federal service in this city. For the general information of the readers of THE AGR, however, your correspondent sends the following information as to the number of clerks, carriers and employees of other grades in the Mobile postoffice and their salaries in the applegate. The total force employed in the Mobile postoffice consists of 65 persons, 23 clerks and 22 carriers and substitutes, whose total salaries amount to $77,200 annually, divided as follows: Thirty-two carriers and substitutes, all of whom are Negroes working annually $28,700; Negroes working annually $28,700; Negro total $12,100. Negroes employed receiving annually $12,100. There are 17 white clerks, receiving annually $8,100. The postmaster, Han P. D. Barker, has always proved himself a loyal friend of our people. Whenever residents of this city get on the civil service list he does not overlook them simply because of their color. Postmaster Barker takes them whenever vacancies occur. Members of the rices are also employed in the Custom House and in other departments of the Federal service here, perhaps more largely than in any other department. Theographer to the Collector of Customs is a Negro who has proved his fitness by hard work.

"I in my judgment," Mr. Anderson replied, "they were very largely inspired by an organization in New York known as the Humphreys, a branch in this city, John E. Miholland is president and A. B. Humphreys is secretary. I believe. It curiously happens that nearly all of the colored men in the Taft conventions belonged to bolts from Taft conventions were men whose names had been distinctly associated with the Constitution League and its management for the last two months. Most of these colored men are Democrats.
"The editor of the Boston Guardian, which is apparently the official organ of the Democrat, and his father before him was a Democrat. A colored physician from Philadelphia, a colored lawyer from Boston, and an attorney of whom he was being advised the colored people to vote the Democratic ticket in the event of the nomination of Secretary Boosey, or the renomination of House委员, and all currently reported and generally believed to be in the employ of the league."

Doubless they were not put up on air, and it would seem quite proper to believe that they were not altogether financially financed."

ing out the instructions of their employers and are seeking to defeat the nomination of Secretary Taft by threats now that it is plainly apparent that he cannot be trusted. In other words, in other army, it is the old game of the Chinese army throwing stink water. Two small boys stealing a ride on the rear of a wagon and one boy happening to fall by the side out "whip behind!" There is nothing new about it and nothing novel.
"Are the Negroes of this country arrayed against Taft?" I "don't think that the Negroes are or can be arrayed against Secretary Taft." The Negroes in the civil war would mean disfranchisement and Jim Crow cars in the States of Delaware, Maryland, West Virginia, Arkansas, Kentucky, Missouri and possibly Kansas, for most of those States. Not all of them were carried in order to elect A. Democrat President.
"The Jim Crow cars and the disfranchisement, law dogs the footsteps of Democratic victories. This is a sorry question because the first New York, the first Southern State is Delaware, but it is a Republican State, and there are no Jim Crow cars there and the Negroes are not disfranchised, nor is the state is Maryland, but Democratic State. The Jim Crow car and the Negro partially and soon to be totally disfranchised. Further South we find West Virginia, but a Republican State, and the Negroes are not disfranchised. Thus we see the question of the manhood rights of the Negro depends upon Republican or Democratic success. Take Oklahoma, for instance, which was the first state to allow itsORK bill, I believe, but immediately after its election of a Democratic Governor and Legislature a Jim Crow law and a disfranchisement law were passed and the new talk of instituting separate telephone boots for Negroes in the larger cities.
"Even in the District of Columbia an attempt was made by Congressman Helfin, of Alabama, to place Jim Crow cars on the streets of Washington and Baltimore, and to appoint a member of the House of Representatives with the exception of one New England Representative, and opposed by every Republican member of that body. "So far as the Brownsville episode is concerned, "don't believe the thought[al] Newton will vote against the Republican party because of it. What has the race lost by the dismissal of the colored soldiers? One battalion of colored soldiers was dismissal of another; and another dismissal of colored soldiers was dismissal into its place. If these men had
been dislambased and their places filled with white soldiers, or if the places had been abolished or filled with colored soldiers at an earlier compensation, or rather a rerun of the same loss would be substantial and important, but if any one can explain to me how the Negro has suffered any considerable loss, except a sentimental one, when the place of every dismised soldier in the same race, I should will have to be done by a system of philosophy quite unfamiliar to me.
"The trouble is that the newspapers provided an opportunity for every little inch high personality of our race be interviewed and repaired. The fellow in the backyard will have to stop in time of stress. They remind me of the backyard of a New York tenement house during a wind storm when the washing of ten or fifteen families is hung out to dry. The wind gets into the within and seems to be the apparel of a race of giants. The undergarments of some enunciated tenement house denizens assumes almost dropical proportions. But when the good housewives rattle them in the house, the ironing these same garments shrink at once into their forerunner insignificant proportions.
"It is equally true about some of the noisy little followings to my race," concluded Mr. Anderson. "You will remember that although Givesley Summer supports Givesley Grant, and Givesley had been fighting the battles of the Negroes for a lifetime and had given lavishly both of his time and treasure to the abolition movement, the Negroes refused to desert the Republican party for the right to advise his people to support Givesley, and the old man element, with that unfailing sanity which characterized him, answered for his people: "The Republican party is the ship and all else is the raging sea; they were when uttered by Mr. Douglas; and I feel confident that the Negro will not follow Ryan where he refused to follow Horace Givesley.
"I am not at all frightened by the noise made by the agitators and howling derivatives of my race, especially when making it at so much per noise and so much per blow. They don't represent the thought."
R. A. C. COWAN
Counsellor Cowan also enjoys the distinction of being the only colored lawyer to appear in condemnation proceedings in which the city has acquired property for the war. Mr. Cowan has had some of the most complex, intricate and difficult questions of law to unravel in order to place his case properly in the record. The commission submitted its reports to the Supreme Court for confirmation on June 29, 1908. Counselor Cowan represents four parcels full, industrious, soler, sensible millions of the race who do the voting but don't talk. "These men are like a theatre crowd; they may till the house with noise at a host performance, but they don't draw at the desk other." Mr. Anderson was then asked: "Do the Negroes of New York, Ohio, Indiana and Illinois hold the balance of power in national, State and Congressional elec
"In this day of slipped speaking" was his reply, "most men would probably say yes. I don't think that the Negro vote constituted the balance of power in these States in either of the McKinley campaigns or the Roosevelt campaign. I don't think that the Democratic vote and decide a large number of Congressional elections, but as to the precise extent to which they control those elections I am not prepared to say."

An event which will ever be conspicuous in the annals of the history of Negro progress in the city of New York and which marked the beginning of a new era in the Metropolitan Mercantile and Realty Company's building, on the corner of forty-sixth street and Eighth avenue, last Wednesday evening, June 10. Fully 2,000 stockholders of the company met in the large hall on the second floor and the permanent offices of the company, speakers and the dedicatory address by the Rev. W. A. Creditt of Philadelphia.

kins, treasurer and manager of the company, was the first speaker and his remarks were received with cheers and from then on the enthusiasm waned high. He was the first to speak from his humble and discouraging incipiency to the present proud moment, brought forth choir after choir. After listening to the statement of C. Irwin in the conclusion of the company, scores of the members present pledged large sums of money in order that the entire structure might be completed in a short length of time. The company was given a masterly effort and his remarks were enthusiastically received. Other speakers were the Roy, Dr. William H. Brooks, Mr. E. R. and Ms.詹姿, architect of the company, and Mr. Joseph, a man of confidence was given to the management by the stockholders.
This splendid piece of property. In the heart of the great business section of
the West Side, was secured by the Metropolitan Mercantile & Realty Company about a year and a half ago.

Liber has now found in possession of natural resources of fabulous value and the commercial forces of Europe's most powerful nations are anxious to get hold of valuable outlying strips, with a view of exploiting them to their own advantage, and the Liberians fear that the integrity of their republic is thus endangered. The United States have no legal interpretation of the library's appeal for moral assistance and international influence in inducing England, Germany, and France to abandon their policy of aggression. A purpose scarcely second in importance in connection with the future of Liberia is to lay before the capitalists of this country the vast possibilities that lie in the development that country will be able to build of manufacturing plants, and preparing the republic along industrial and educational lines to take a high place in the commercial affairs of the world.
President Russell Sullivan with the closest attention to the representations of the commission, Vice President Desson setting his case with remarkable clearness and with dignity and diplomatic graciousness, gave an impassioned speech, interested in the vivid description of the rich agricultural and mineral resources of the black republic, and was visibly impressed with the attractive picture painted by the commissioners of the natural benefits that they thought would certainly grow out of the development of the country. The exclusive rubber, coffee, timber and cotton lands of their country. The country has a population of about 2.5 million; 400,000 are civilized, none are savage, and the untamed natives, led by the intelligent and ambiguous element, can be built into an industrial army capable of protecting the garden of plenty. Mr. Desson says with the introduction of modern machinery and the training of the people in industrial and agricultural pursuits, backed by the necessary funds to finance manufactures and mines. Liberia, would be the face of the globe. After the usual exchange of courtesies the delegation departed, feeling assured by the President's sympathetic manner and numerous evidences of warm friendship that they had made a favorable impression upon the Chief Executive and that they might even be appointed to the office of the president, with proper regard for international county and diplomatic standards.
Still accompanied by Dr. Washington the party made a call upon Secretary Taft at his handsome home on K street, where a similar warm welcome was accorded to the student of the colonial affairs of the African continent and has given Liberia special consideration as the legitimate child of the United States. He was therefore pleased to greet the Liberian commissioners and in the interview planned much information the day before. The day, under sword of Dr. Washington, a round of the departments was made, and AGE—35 35 35
a call of special significance was made upon Secretary of Agriculture James Wilson. Among the many notable figures the famous Haitian patriot, who was in the city on business, in company with his secretary, a distinguished looking young man, with a big monstacle, General Fermin, gifted and unusually affable, talked volently in English, with a delightful touch in French, and a proud of the progress the American Negroes are making along all lines of endeavor.
Thursday night, a public reception was tendered the Liberian envoy at Lincoln Temple Congregational Church. The general arrangements were in the hands of Lawyer Thomas J. Caliwayo, who so successfully engineered the grip of the envoy to the commission at Tuskegee Institute, so few days ago. The church was the first to be commissioned by the vision of Mr. Henry Lasseter, who is a veteran in matters pertaining to public assessee duties. The American colors predominated, and in a conspicuous place, suspended from the ceiling, was a large Liberian flag, made especially for this occasion. The edition was crowded to the dogs long before the meeting was called to order. Standing room was at a promenade, and the crowd cramped with people unable to gain admission. As the reception was held in connection with a special session of the Washington branch of the National Negro Business League, the preliminary portion of the program was carried on by the officers of that organization, and the newly elected officers were installed with appropriate economies. Retiring President A. A. C. Smith and the new president, Mr. W. Sidney Pitman, who spoke briefly, Dr. Booker T. Washington, was asked to preside over the reception proper, and he came forward amid a sea of applause.
Mission Indented by Dr. Washington
Preparatory to introducing the several Libertarian candidates, Dr. Washington made an effort to help the endorsement of both the men and the women was hearty and sincere, saying in part:
"I am glad to be with you to tonight and help welcome these estimable and lovable men and women. They are here in Washington on an official visit, set up representations of the entire Negro race. To a vast degree we are deeply interested in affairs affecting them, as they must necessarily be interested in our welfare and admiration.
"To have degree their success in our counsels and their failure is our failure. If their country succeeds, so much in that, degree does the race succeed. And if their country fails, so much in that degree does the race fail.
"They need the support they ask for, and should have it for the reasons mentioned. Their mission here is a noble
"It is a gratification to note and realize how well these men have been received here in Washington, the cordial relations which their pleas have been listened to and the interest manifested in their mission, which I trust will be realized to its fullest extent. These men have been to the White House, the State Department, the Treasury, the Department of our government and their welcomes has been pleasing and cordial.
"Formally I have never met in the comparatively short time that I have been with them more lovable or more grateful men. Each of them has endured himself to me by his seal, his faith, his affection and in his counselling. They have found a deep and lasting place in my affections."
Enyours Explain Their Cause.
With a stronger bond between the two countries, the envoys stated, would come the revival of trade with the United States, which was greatly lended for by the citizens of the republic, and the investment of American capital in the country. The Liberians stated that practically no industrial advancement had been made in the country because of the national poverty, and there were oppersions against it, and the small or large sums of money, in marketing the natural resources of the land, such as ivory, ginger, coffee, tropical fruits, mahogany and the palm and bamboo products. Industrial Education Needed in Liberia. As indicating the need of industrial development, the envoys stated that none of the natural resources of the country could at present be profitably marketed. Norther in the interior than from 35 to 40 miles because of the enormous cost of transporting the natural resources all of which would mean immediate profits to the investor.
In speaking of the internal affairs of their land, the envoys asserted that though their government had not made any vast strides toward national improvement, the country and purposes of the fountains of the republic had not been in failure. All needed now was capital to drive them further on the path of national development. The state one-fourth of the public revenue was devoted to education and the civilization of the alqarjines, both meeting with promised success.
The envoys ended by making earnest pleas for more material interest in their country on the part of all Americans, concerted efforts that they might take the fullest advantage of internal business opportunities offered and divert the foreign trade of the country, controlled by the English, Germans, Dutch and Portuguese.
They stated they turned to America, their mother country, for the material aid so much needed, for the paternal interest she has shown the country in, for the future, for the world would be aroused in the future, and, lastly, with the hope of gradually stamping out and currating the enervations of European powers, which have been increasing steadily year after year.
A brilliant musical program was rendered under the direction of Dr. Amanda V. Gray, choice selections being presented by Mosses, C. Summar Wormily, D. Arnese, Cameron White, H. Loused, Cameron May, L. Europe, following the public session at Lincoln Temple, a toothsome collation was served to the envoys and invited guests at Gray's in charge appointed cafe. The committee in charge of the reception, by designation of the Business League embroidered W. Sidney Plinn, president. Thomas J. Lalloway, corresponding secretary; J. A. Lankford, retiring president, and the following prominent citizens: Judge Robert H. Terrell, Rescriber J. C. Daney, Assistant District Attorney J. A. Cobb, Rev. Sterling N. Brown, Rev. P. J. Grinke, Major C. R. Douglas, Whitfield McKinlay, Auditor R. W. Assing, Superintendent W. Schools R. H. Calvin Chase, Rev. J. H. Welch, Dr. Amanda V. Gray and Dr. William H. Davis.
Mother Zlen Nete
At the morning service, Rev. Dr. Orley, of Long Island, laid a most interesting discourse. The S. M. C. A. held exercises in the afternoon and at night the secretary and clerk was divided into financial secretary of the A. M. E. Zion Church. His effort was spalited and it made a great impression. The Sunday school and Christian Endeavor both held interesting exercises at their usual hours. It will please the many friends of Mother Zion in part because that the R. M. McMullen has been returned to that church for another year, this being his fifth. Dr. McMullen has proven himself highly acceptable as a pastor and has done and is doing a wonderful work in the upper part of the city. Coming to New York, he had just moved up town and it was rather difficult to face a new church in a new place which made altogether a new condition, but Dr. McMullen was not dismayed neither did he become discouraged. He put his shoulder to the wheel and by hard, consistent work, keeping community on the move the company was moving in the city. The membership is steadily increasing and a general interest is actively manifested all around. His clean life, high moral standard and eminent qualities have placed him along side such pastors as Dr. Brooks, Rutler, Henderson and Mr. Bishop, who have been devoted financial and affective churches. The bishop's desire to please the people of Mother Zion by

the appointment of Dr. M. Mutton, whose return they had strongly petitioned too. Highly appreciated and this is certainly looked forward to as being the most successful year in the recent history of Mother Zion. The objections he made over the body of the lads James W. Mutton, only son of the late Dr. M. Mutton, are impressive ever held in Mother Zion. The entire audience was deeply touched by the pathetic scene and the mother's brief widow never be forgotten. Bishop Clinton, an intimate friend of the family, who married them, christened James and after whom James was named, delivered a funeral. The them, pieces were extremely handsome. He was taken to Akron. Other Tuesday evening.

The Plane Street Presbyterian Church held children's service in the afternoon. The school was addressed by one of the elders from Dr. Granger's church.

THE UNPROVEN CHARLES OF
RADICAL EDITORS
Of course it is no great surprise to us to hear the radical papers which have been advising the Negro voters to support the Democratic ticket in the event of Secretary Taft's nomination to set up a cry of "Subordinated press." As irrational as have been their ranting for the past six months we would hardly be surprised at anything they might say.
This cry of "Sunsilized Press and "The Need of an Independent Press" and other similar talk that is being set up by the editors of papers who were so voluminous and rattled in their attacks on Secretary Taft that they now find they have gone to far into the mine to get back to terra nima without submitting themselves to deep illumination. It has been openly charged time and time again that THE ACE has been the leading Negro paper in the interest of Secretary Taft's nomination. If such is true, a charge of which the paper is not admitted. We have advocated the nomination of the big Secretary because we have all along believed that he was the most available candidate the Republican party could put up; we believed and still believe that he possesses a regular fitness for the Presidency.
All talk about THE WE being brought or submitted is not. If those radical "know-it-all" editors who make such charges know something about this paper being brought why don't they make a news article out of it and comment on it at length in their editorial columns. It should prove interesting campaign reading at this time. We believe in the principles of the "Republican party and don't intend to comment, suicide or advise the Negroes of the United States to do so because of any grievance we may hold, which we think can be ultimately righted in a conservative and dignified way. We are not like some of our editors who take up all the "isms" that cranks bring out; who yell for single tax, then for some other "ism" and finally return to the Republican party to make trouble which they would if the people regarded them seriously.
All we have to say is let the sem-
tational editors who make jobs ob-
stinate them or forever hold them
tongues.
"LILY-WHITES!" RECEIVES
"BLACK-EYE," AT CRICOAC.
The Alabama contest of the regular Republicans in Alabama against the "Lily-Whites" was the first considered by the National Republican Committee in Chicago. It is good news that the wives living us to the effect that the "Lily-White" faction of Alabama was completely heaten in our district, and in the State at large having a place to hang on.
We have said that our purpose is to inform that we were victorious in President Roe v. Wade and Secretary Lloyd M. McMullen to consult "Lily Whites" in the South, and what the National Committee has done in the Valley, even more than justifies our position.
THOUGHTFUL WORDS BY THE
ENJOYS FROM LIBERIA
many respects, in far from ideal. Saturday evening we were privileged to meet a number of your leading Federal officials. We were charmed with their easy, gracious manners and ready flow of conversation upon the issues that affect the race and nation. The reflection could not be restrained that the future of no people on this continent is seriously imperiled as long as you have such a capable, intelligent and thoroughly led leadership as we found evidenced. We have the official, professional, ministerial and commercial life. We are delighted with America, and with her people and her institution, and it may safely be said that the American Negro is just really entering upon the civil exaltation that is to be his in the current of the years.
2021 WEEKLY
The Charleston News and Crier very recently carried a special despatch from Columbia, S. C., to the effect that thirty-three English people had been brought into South Carolina and located as servants in and around Columbia. Edgefield, Albemarle, Greenville etc.; also setting to the white-sale discharge of Negro servants because of the incoming of these English women. The despatch has been copied in several newspapers and is not served pretty generally upon the Negroes that wholesale English immigration is going to live the servant prince in South Carolina.
Now we do not believe anything of the kind. A short while ago a number of immigrants were brought into South Carolina on the sponsorship Wutinkland, and it was published all over the country that Negro form laborers were to be displaced by this. It turned out, however, very soon that everyone of these immigrants either returned to their homes in Louisiana or else went to other parts of the country, as they could not stand the treatment meted out to them in the South Carolina forms. We look for something of the same ending to this present effort to import English servants. It is perfectilly for these South Carolina Indians to think that English women, German women, or any other class of women are going to put up with what the long suffering Negro women have put up with. The best way for them to solve the servant problem in South Carolina and throughout the South, for that matter, is to treat their client helpers with some degree of consideration and humanity and pay them a wage in keeping with the services rendered. It is well known that much of the present locomotive in the South was about because of the failure on the port of that section to provide anything any something decent school accommodations for the Negro children and because of the insufficient wage which is paid for almost all kinds of domestic and unpaid service.
We have not the slightest faith in the present movement. It is deserved to future well in advance of its beginning

THE VICTORY OF THE "BLACK AND TAN" DECLARATION.
Again the Republican National Committee has put itself on record as being against any form of "Lily-Whiteism" in the South. Despite the fact that the "Black and Tan" delegation from Louisiana was not instructed for Secretary Taft, while the "Lily-White" delegation was instructed for the Secretary, the committee effected a compromise, giving each side half a vote in the convention.
With the Taft people evidently in control of the National Committee the "Lily-Whites" anticipated a walk-over when the Louisiana contests were called. But they were given as severe shock when the committee refused to seat a solid white delegation from their State.
While the decision of the committee was pleasing to the "Black, and Tan" delegation, it was as equally displeasing to the other side.

"The criticism of Mr. Taft for speaking of the weakness of General Grant is entirely uncalled for. When Mr. Taft spoke of that side of the General he did so simply to illustrate how great men overcome their weaknesses. For this man, great as he was, possessed all the weaknesses of any other man; but when the opportunity presented itself he was able to overcome them and climb to fame and success as chief of the Army. He would have been so great bad he possessed no weakness. When a man puts from him all of the little shortening he ceases to be human, but rather a mechanical man. In General Grant we see a man whose weakness has been seen and discussed, but when duty called him as a citizen of the United States to act for his country he did so by burying his body to the Union might be preserved. Was this not rising above human weakness?
We do not find a man every day who can rise above the level as the General dlib and mount an army to victory as Ps 26. The victories achieved by General Grant are among the greatest that not believed that Mr. Taft meant the slightest harm when he pokes of the post-life of our General, St. Louis Palladium.
If the Republican party sets itself squared and unapologetic as determined to enforce the Constitutional amendments intended to make the lately occupied people secure in the enjoyment of their rights, it will need to enact the additional laws necessary to bring this result about, then the only reasonable or possible thing for us to do will be to stand squared by the Democrats and to line up on this question as it might, then we will have to take chances a lot what we will do.

From all accounts it appears that the General Conference of the Methodist Episcopal Church, which has just ended its meeting at Baltimore, has significantly failed to colored bishop. In the earlier stage of bishopting, the Rev. Dr. M. C. R. Mason, of Cincinnati, the colored candidate, ordained. But now he has dropped away behind, with about 130 cotes. It looks as if no colored person will be elected, in fact, the formal withdrawal of Dr. Mason from the church. There is certainty that such will be the case. Aside from the uniform good treatment accorded the colored members of this body, there is yet anything of special importance to Afro-Americans to report.
Rev Dr. R. Cooke, of New York,
one of the delegates to the Conference,
realized at one of the gravity of the sit-
tuation and offered an amendment to the
church constitution by the terms of which missionary bishops for Africa might hold conferences of colored Methodists in America. The amendment was pigeon-holebed. Securing the impossibility of a federation of African bishops in the M. E. Church in the United States, Dr. Cooke's object was to have Missionary Bishop Scott, colored, of Liberia, Africa, to come to this country and hold conferences among his own congregation in the United States, been asked why are there no colored bishops in the United States in the M. E. Church? Doubtless the fear is that a Negro bishop may in time preside over a white congregation, which might have a white congregation, bringing the range into closer relationship—Mouphis (Tenn.)

Little Wille Trotter, of Boston town, like little H. C. S. Cleveland, is in the cause, not for any personal reasons, but because he loves the "dear people." Willie is such a soulful (pr should we say shoofly) writer. His chief stock in trade is his ability to call people names. 90% Willie can call people such sweet names. They are music to the ear.
Willie's flow of names may be classified into two general heads. The one may be "the dear people"—"few and far between" who come under that head, a group of people whose words are reserved. There is no other requirement—character, intelligence, honesty—to get a half column of those favors "see as I see"—or at least "see as I do."
The other general head may be termed "not as I see," and for this class little Wilkie has an ice chest filled with choice in gourmet wine, cigar and vintail. He dispenses the with indiscriminate gladness to educators, ministers, bishops, editors, legislators, congressmen and bureaucrats. He fact, every body who does not belong to the "see as I see" class, and their name is legion. But it's a father generous and noble way. Now, to the point: All those who do not belong to the "see as I see" class are, in Wilkie's holy and righteous eyes, gracious. They are kind, gracious, trusting and gracious, proud and gracious" or some kind. But Wilkie is none of these, oh, no.

THE OPPORTUNITY OF THE PRESS.
An Set Porth by Jerome B. Peterson
for the Centennial Celebration of
the New York African Society for
Mutual Bellett
A pertinent suggestion of your amiable and accomplished toastmaster provoked the question: "What is the Opportunity of the Press?"
The answer came in the one world—service.
The greatest opportunity afforded by the press is that of rendering service to the country, to the race and to the battle, to the most esteemed all of all to one of fellow men. This service requires to small things as well as to great ones. In fact, there seems to be nothing too small in the affairs of men and nothing too great in the affairs of men. This list the devoted service of the press.
The members of the Fourth Estate, as newspaper men are sometimes called,itute my unofficial class of public servants, and the amount of official position, not bound by any vow of service like the lawyer,inspects the newspaper man is nevertheless public and private interests, often without out money and without price. No better field could offer for the atrisk or an opportunity to serve his fellow men.
With the close of the Civil War the number of race journals increased so rapidly, that it would be almost impractical to notice. Notable among these later issues were the Sunbarn, in Brooklyn, edited by the Rev. Rufus L. Perry, who afterward published the National Monitor, the National War Journal, James L. Schoenman and John R. Lynch, the Legislation by P. R. S. Pinchbeck, and the Progressive American by John L. Freeman, the last named being with the collection of many present there to right.
Before leaving this phase of the subject, it seems proper to recall a name familiar to all the members of this society, the discoverer that he actually conducted a rigorous himself, although a practical pioneer, yet there is evidence that he was a vive-prize and zealous supporter of the society. He was a pioneer in field P. to the late John A. Zinn. A wider t.3.1 of service opened to the race papers, established after the war. The anti-slavery struggle has been brought to a point where there came an unanticipated unplanning of a new citizenship. The questions of labor and education have been initiated and main subject, requiring the考察, evaluation and careful handling of the subjects needed more than a rightful share of attention. But, in spite of all the magical novel and material upifting of the passport has ever been the prime motive of the Afro-American people. From the seed of the single sheet planted by Rosswarren in 1827, there have sprung up evidence at the press, 300 weeklies, about 20 months and three or four quarterly publications.
In the ability of the newspaper to serve others, but seldom himself, he might be likened to a doorkeeper with the idea of opportunity to assist the client to enter himself without deserving his past. Nevertheless, the position is not without its rewards. There is the satisfaction of serving ones fellow man or fellow citizen, and the idea of argument to the weary and oppressed; of spreading wide the gospel of work; of exulting the good and of denouncing the things that work for evil. This is no mean return for the carpenter and nurse, but a return for the consummation workers of the press. Then with the material and intellectual growth of the masses whom they serve, the material compensation of the workers of the press furnishes opportunity; for employment to many classes of our skilled labor; pressmen and composites, typetwriters and stenographers, bookkeepers, reporters, correspondents and centersales workers. Material growth comes the opportunity for the investment of capital in newspaper enterprises on a purely business basis. This would increase the avenues for the employment of the rising general public, and make a reasonable return on the capital invested.
Even those who may not adopt newspaper work as a lifelong vacation, will find in it a splendid training for most any business or professional calling. Many of our leading representatives in professional life and in official station are their public experience with the press in one capacity or another.
To sum it up: the opportunity of the press is—to serve one’s fellow in greater or lesser degree to furnish a suitable employment to our skilled labor; to serve as a training school for other department of life work. And as the years progress the secretary’s existence, let us hope that it will continue to be one of the most pleasing functions of the press to point to the historic career of an amateur honorable man than an incentive to inspiration to all organized effort toward the progress and uplifting of the race. May its existence also remain a standing refutation in any good work is lacking amount our moral assets as a people!
Tunkreee Men in the Soudan.
From New York Tribune
In December, 1901, three graduates of Tuskegee Institute, in Alabama, went to Africa to introduce American methods of cotton culture among the natives in the Sahara. They were Poindexter Smith, a blacksmith; C. W. Tiptlett, a carpenter; and John P. Powell, a teacher in the agricultural department. They were employed by Leigh Hunt, an American capitalist, who is said to have large interests in Mauleuchura and Corea, and who had some original notions as to the possibilities of cotton culture in Africa. They were also after two years Smith died.
Powell has recently returned to recover from the globalization effects of the tropical climate. He expects, to go back again. He gives an interesting account of his experience, where Mr. Hunt has leased 40,000 acres of land from the Egyptian government. The company, which has erected expensive irrigation works and buildings, has an present 3,000 acres of land cleared, and an existing 3,000 acres of ants. The land yields as high as 800 pounds of lint cotton an acre, under the method of culture employed and averages something over one bale an acre. Zizibar, where the plantation lies, is a few miles above the junction of the Nile and Algeria. It was in the plain formed by the junction of these rivers that Merces, the ancient capital of the Nile, was situated. It was here that Mr. Powell mounted in the New Testament lived.
"There are three distinct methods of irrigation in use along the Nile," said Powell the other day. "The first and most amount is that objectifying the water management such as buckets or rangelands, such as sometimes there in the old fashioned wells—a beam on a pole, with a bucket on one end and a weight on the other. You see a great deal of irrigation by this primitive method in both the lower and the upper sections of the river, an arrangement of buckets on a wheel, which is moved by a team of bullocks. The third method is the steam pump. The irrigation at Zedidah and the three other plantations conducted by Europeans in the Sudan is by steam pumps, which it is necessary to import coal, as is hardly any wood in the Sudan."
Powell stated that large quantities of sand are spread over the country by sandstorms, and that he has been trained to carry six hours by sand pallet across the track. I became very well acquainted with the natives during the three years I was there. Shortly after I arrived I was to digging a canal which was to be the opening of the river to the gation of the whole tract of 40,000 acres. For a long time I saw only the natives for weeks at a time. After I became well enough versed in their language I freely with them used to go sometimes with their husbands. They used to ask me all sorts of questions about my people and the country from which I came. They wanted to know if we had a sun and my country as they had in the Nordian.
"I found them very dexterous in weaving and in making the few articles of furniture and of dress they use, but they were not worth much as laborers, and they had 15 cents a day, and that No. 10 generation was quick to learn. The younger generation was quick to learn. Worked a great deal better than the older people. What they need is schools. While Triplett was there he started a school for the natives and the rest of the Delaware parity supported it. The triplett degree party supported it. The triplett went away several of the days could speak pretty good English and read and write a little.
"The difficulty in the Soudan is to get value. The tribal wars have almost deserved it. The tribal wars have heard it said that during the 10,000,000 the Soudan was under the Khalifa the population was reduced from 10,000,000 [www.wwww.com] have frequently plagued in the form of tribal tigers homes of Soudan women and children who had been killed in some of these attacks. I have seen, in going about country, hundreds of empty villages. It is country, in itself, a country with arable lands of the Soudan until it is possible in some way to repopulate the country. There has been something said about the country with colored people from America. I do not think any one who knows the Soudan has thought seriously of that. We need and there, for the most part, to American methods of growing cotton.
"I do not know how much cotton is now raised in the Souland, but it is considerable. The natives have always raised cotton for our companies, encased in cotton cottons. We have natives and ship it to Liverpool. We have no gin, but ship out the wool cotton in 300-pound sacks. One of the natives worth about $2250 in Liverpool. The natives hold a fair every year at which it is shipped to natives for the best cotton. These fairs are held in four or five of the larger cities of the Souland. In 1907 I served as inspector at one. We had thousands of exhibitors. There was a good deal of American goods with the Egyptian at this fair, and sorts of vegetables. We have found that while the American cotton has not so long a tapic as the Egyptian, the plants seem to thrive better in the Souland than any other.
One thing we had to contend against was the fever that came after we had woken up the next morning. She through our system of irrigation. The up and downing of this soil seemed to be on fevers which for a time were there. There was a time when we buried a child in the ground of all most every day, and sometimes not only but two and three. I was sick for six months with slow fever, and got so low that I would have to get out if I expected a life of health in a few years Zeidah will be as healthy as any other part of the Sojdan." I thought I brought back with him a number of inquiries showing the character and quality of the dustries and has made several contributions to the Tunkegree Institute campus to which other graduates of the university who visited Africa have also made gifts.
NOTES OF THE GREATER CITY
Y. M. C. A. Celebrates Seventh Year of Existence at Mother Zlon Church—News of Saint Mark's Lyceum New York is looking forward with much pleasure and, delight to the coming of the National Convention of Colored Doctors to meet in this city in August. This convention is very significant since it means the coming together of such an interesting group of men and women, as members of the medical professions. The
committee to look out for the comfort of the physicians is sparing no pain in making the necessary preparations for the convention while the meeting is in this city. New York is highly favored in having this convention this year. Every colored man and woman ought to take an especial interest in the coming of such a worthy and representative group of men and women of the race. The convention holding its sessions in the metropolis of the nation will do a great deal toward bringing it to a state of order. It is thought that in the neighborhood of three or four thousand delegates will be present.
St. Mark's Lyceum.
Next Sunday afternoon, June 21, at the St. Mark's Lycée hour an educational meeting of annual interest will be held to discuss the educational and economical situation of the Negroes in America. This meeting is an annual occurrence, and is looked forward to with much pleasure and delight. Need more information among them will be Mrs. A. W. Jiamon, a noted Association worker who will speak on the Association work as an educational factor. Mrs. Jiamon is an interesting speaker. The teachers of the city will be requested to be present and participate in the meeting. G. G. McGill will be one of the most interesting meetings of the year, and those interested in education should be present.
The musical feature promises to be unique and of a high order. The exercises will begin a half hour earlier in order to complete the program.
Last Thursday evening the excerpts at the St. Mark's Lycamina were unusually good and interesting. The program good was of a musical and literary turn, was one of the best of the Lycamina year. A good-sided and appreciative audience attended the program. Mr. John Williams was in charge. After the usual song service conducted by Prof. Leon S. Alger, and the devotional excerises, the program opened with an original poem by Mr. A. N. Walker, "What is Success?" followed by a swootty numbered soprano sola by Mrs. Eta Fawers, Mr. Ambo Tabor, two basses, Mr. John Williams, Caffine, followed by another soprano sola, and an interesting paper by Mr. C. C. Allison, subject "Opportunity." After Mr. Allison's paper, Mr. A. D. Wood, one of the old members of the Lycamina, gave an encouraging and in-spiring five-minute talk, Mr. Wood spoke of the possibility of maintaining a library of the great work St. Mark's Lycamina was doing in New York, and the work that was being done by the Rutherford Library Society of Washington, H. C.
Thursday evening at the Lawn the auxiliary of the Business League will be taken in the Northwestern Federation of Clubs Miss. A. W. Hamilton secretary Young Woman Christian Association will be one of the members of the Wiley, the president of the Northwestern Federation. This association of women is doing a great deal of good and is composed of some of the most intelligent members of the race. This meeting will doubtless be interesting as it is of an important nature. Some of the noted women of the Fayette interested in club work are the Fayette Barter Club, Mary Church Terrill Miss. Elizabeth Frazier, Mrs. A. W. Hamilton, Miss Eva Bowls and others.
The Lyceum singing class has registered quite a few young men and women, who have expressed a desire to join the class. This will be an interesting feature of the Lyceum week, and will keep the Lyceum together.
Y. M. C. A. Notes.
Last Sunday afternoon at Mother Zion A. M. Church an interesting meeting was held in the interest of the Young Men's Christian Association. The meeting was well attended, and the audience evidenced great interest in the meeting. The occasion was the seventh anniversary of the A. M. G. A. and an opportunity was held to see just the kind of work that the Y. M. G. A. is doing among colored young men of New York. Doctor E. P. Roberts presided and opened the meeting, and the welcome such a large gathering of friends of the Association. He spoke of the struggles of the Association, and how it kept abreast of the time. The program opened by the congregation singing "Coronation," and selection No. 1 in the Church annual Rev. J. Prentice read offered prayer, followed by the reports of the different committees. Cleveland G. Allen read the report from the Social committee. Mr. Samuel Morgan read from the Library of the Abbé club, and Mr. R. II. Bentley read from the Literary society. Each report from the orally received. The reports of the committees were followed by the general report of Secretary T. J. Bell. His report dealt with the general phases of the work and the great effort the Association had put forth the past year. His report was a clear statement of the work and was well received. The program continued with a solo by Abdulphis A. Haston, followed by the anniversary address by Mr. Bentley, a well known Bible speaker, and began his address interesting speaker, and began his address disappointing that he was somewhat disappointed in seeing ladies present. He said humourously that if he had known that ladies were present he would have put on another coat. (Laughter.)
He spoke of the pleasure derived from living an unmodified Christian life. He also praised the race for the great progress they have made in the last forty years. Keep in touch with God, he said, and things would come out for the best. He addressed an inspiring one to the young and wise members of the address was followed by the correspondence collection, which amounted to $29. The notices of the week were given, and the big anniversary meeting came in a close. The Young Men's Christian Association has the good will and kindly feeling of all. It is interesting to see with what peace and harmony the different churches of the city work in conjunction with the Y. M. C. Church Sunday afternoon Rev. Dr. Kyns of the Park Presbyterian Church will be the speaker for the afternoon. His subject will be the "Great Problem." Dr. Kyns is looked upon as one of the strongest men in the New York clergy and
a strong lecture is looked forward to with much light and pleasure.

Last Sunday morning at St. Mark's M. E. Church the Rev. Dr. Love of Baltimore, Md., preached an interesting sermon to children. He referred to the little ones as the future citizens of tomorrow, and the leaders of the church of the future. The sermon was very enjoyable and the little ones evidently enjoyed it, judging from the close attention given the Destroy while preaching, the Destroy while preaching, the Day exercises in the afternoon. The church was beautifully decorated with dame roses and Easter bibles appropriate of the occasion. The exercises cofessed of children's Day songs and recitations.

there are hundreds of pefformers “up
in the air,” so to speak, when ques-
tioned-as ta their future plans, The
usual answer one gets these torrid days
in June upon asking a variety per-
former what he intends to do’ next
season, is: “Well, you know the vau-
deville situation is a complex. one just
now. and Iam waiting to see how
things will turn gut.” .
This time last summeg the majority
of performers found th® vaudeville sit-
vation complex, enough, but aifairs are
even worse this year." There is more
talk of opposition and ativther vaude-
ville war ig iniminent. ‘Then, business
conditions ‘in the commercial world
were much better at this time last year,
Which necessarily meant’ “a better
patronage of the theatres. ~
William Morris, booking agent for
Klaw & Erlanger, until they cifected a
compromise, whereby the United Book-
ing people ‘took over all the Klaw &
Erlanger acts,.is establishing a circuit
Of theatres in opposition to the United
Booking office. He claims that he will
have a circuit by September which will
give performers booking for irom tii-
teen to forty weeks. In’New York he
will “run vaudeville at the American
Theatre. A report is in cireultion that
the Circle Theatre will also be a Mor-
Tis_house.
Philadelphia and Boston will he two
other cities where Keith & Proctor will
have opposition, Tn fact, Morris as
serts that io every large city where
Keith & Proctor ‘have houses he will
establish q vaudeville theatre.
Variety ptrformers are wondering
what cifect the probable vaudeville war
Will have on the question of salaries
Last summer Klaw & Lrlanger and the
United Booking people vied with each
other in paying well-known acts large
Salaries. Even the small vaudeville nets
benefited by. the condition of” affaire
whenever they Roan. opportunity to
work. ie
Usually opposition in vaudeville
means more money for the performer,
but only temporarily.” The performer
reaps a harvest. as long as the war
lasts, but invariably there is trouble for
a short time only—then a commromise.
After. the rival heads get together and
arbitrate their differences the result is
the: salary of the performer is in many
instances even lower than heiore the
war started. Small acts are usually
affcéted more so than the large ones.
Such was true when Kaw & Er-
Tanger aiid the United Booking people
settled tSeir differences, . the“ latter
agreeing t take care of all the acts
under contract with Klaw & Erlanger |
providing the hig firm would go out of |
vandeville
Then the supply was greater than the |
demand, “resultmg in Rroadway and,
Sisth Avenue being crowded all winter
with performers — out of work. The
Keith - Proctor - Williams - Hammer-
stein combination was compelled to take
cere of the Klaw & Erlanger acts, and
attempted to do $0, much to the loss of
hundreds of acts. |”
Many a performer daring the winter
worked for half the. salary he received |
heritefore, and at that was very glad to
get_it,
Owing to the conditions arising after
the Kliw & Erlanger-United Booking
deal, the performer is wondering
Whether he ‘will be Venelited hy the!
Morris cpp sitien. William Morris has !
been over in Europe for weeks in!
search of fereign acts. it is said, and
had it not been far the hundreds of
foreign acts brought ever by Klaw &
Eflanger conditions during -the winter
wold ror have been x4 stzairetl
Tt is well and geod for William-Mors
ris to bring over Jarge numbers of
foreign nets ii he intends to remain in
the field. tur if he consolidates with the
large rin within a few months the con-
dition of afadis wil be as bad, if not
worse, than st winter and spring.
Rar the Morris opposition is not the
only clement that ic furnishine ford for
theneht and cosip on the Risto Ad
movement is on foot to ereate an art-
ists’ investment: fund, which propasi-
tion ‘invalves an independent hooking
agent tind the consolidation of the small-
er cirenits in the East.
The scheme, which is being fostered
Dy vaudeville artists, is outlined as fol-
ows: To band together the smaller
circuits of the Fast: to estaldish an in-
depemlent hooking ageney with an.office
on Broadway: to invite all vaudeville
managers to join the body under prom-
ise cf immunity from weekly payment
for the inrnishing of bills, and a prom-
ise’ to adopt a ‘trict policy of charging
only ive per cent. commission.
The proposition further provides for
& guarantee to managers allicd with the
other hooking agents that their profits
shall not be Tese than the amount made
during the season ef 1908-7. The sea-
son of 1948 has been eliminated on ac-
court of the poor showing the smaller
manazers have: made with the larger
hooking arencic’ up to dite. It is said
that three hences have already heen se-
cured, bit The promoters’ refuse to'dis-
close their respective locations, °
From a reliable source it hat been
aleaneyt pat the, ‘White Rats" are
deeplysmterested in the scheme, and that
the raising of the “Investment Fund” is
the result of long agitation. Just what
the outcome of this“scheme will be is

Performers. .
William Norris ‘looms up a formid-
able contender in the vaudeville field be-
cause associated with him in his enter-
prisé are theatiical: promoters _ worth
thousands of dollars,” Up to this writ-
ing the Morris syndicate had leased a
number of theatres, while the latest and
iost authentic information regarding
the investment fund is that “the plans
of the Investment Fund are rapidly
maturing.”
: Of course the reader wants to know
what part the Negro performer will
play, in vaudeville during its present
chaotic state. ‘That is, however, a difi-
‘cult question to answer, for the Negro
performer docs .not know himself. This
is one time when he is doing morg
thinking than talking. for he appreci-
ates thet whensthe tine comes, he will
have“to make a stand.
From the looks of. things the Negro
performer is going to transact husine=s
on a strictly business basis, Those who
can ‘secure good booking through the
United Booking otiice will do so with
avidity. Those who have been com-
pelled to) stand -around the booking
offices in the St. James ‘Building day

cast their lot with the Morris people,
providing they can” secure honking.
