CHICAGO, October 5.—The first big political meeting under the auspices of the Negro voters has been held and to the sore disappointment of false prophets and calamity howlers, it was a tremendous success. The speaker of the occasion was none other than Mr. Sherman, the candidate for Vice-President on the Republican ticket. So much has been said about the dullness and apathy of the Negro in the present campaign and so much claimed by the anti-Republican few, that there was some little apprehension that the meeting might be a "frost" and attended with hissing and other demonstrations of disapproval of the Republican ticket. But there was an entire absence of these disturbances. The large auditorium of the Bethel A. M. E. Church, where the meeting was held, last week, was crowded almost to suffocation. If the church had been twice as large it would have been the same. The face of Mr. Sherman beamed gleefully on that vast concourse of as fine a looking audience as ever greeted an emperor. Mr. Shu-man seemed to realize from the appearance of the audience that he was addressing people of intelligence and people who have recently been doing some serious and independent thinking as to their duty and responsibility in this campaign. His address was a compliment to any people because he reminded that the people were there to be instructed and not to be amused. Every Republican of both races felt greatly relieved at this manifestation of the old-time interest of the average Negro voter in the "G. O. P." The handful of anti-Republican agitators, who began their noise four months ago felt very much chagrined and cast down over this evidence of the Negro's persistent loyalty to the Republican party. The position of the false proponent was variable one and specially so in this instance. The morbid desire to see things go wrong and old ideals thrown down and discarded, in certain to produce a depression of agitates. The gloomy prognostigator creates for himself a castle of gloom and is generally compelled to live in it all alone. One of the interesting visitors to Chicago during the past week was Lieut. George S. Thompson of the 28th U. S. Infantry. Lieut. Thompson has rendered distinguished service as a scout in the Philippine Islands. He paid a glowing tribute to Secretary Taft. He says that M. Taft's name in the Philippine Islands is a synonym of justice and kindness. He is almost the only officer in the Philippine Navy that knows them liberty and progress. The Lieut. says that Mr. Taft is the one American who seems to be absolutely free from the "hereditary taint" of color prejudice; that he has met him socially in the most exclusive functions in the Philippine Islands, and the Secretary has never exhibited in the slightest degree that peculiar form of American prejudice toward all the dark-skinned men. Referring again to political matters, your correspondent has heard from direct and reliable sources some bad things about the mercenary Negro politician. It is very difficult for the Negro officer to resist a respect to obey any consideration when he comes behind those whose grafting hands are always out for money. It really seems that the ordinary leader is always more interested in "ways and means" than he is in issues. There ought to be some loud protest registered against this so-called political leader. It places the everyday Negro voter in a pititable condition to be represented at headquarters by such mercury fellows. Other races make much of the issues of the hour that may affect their people's interests. Our leaders make much of the amount of money it is possible to get to do things which are not done. For this reason it will be noted that the Negro is never called to headquarters to give his views on political issues. It is to be hoped that in due time there will be found a group of colorful men whose understanding of pro-terrorism will be such that his adypt will well as his paid service will be appreciated in the counsels of the party. I have been told of men, who have been taken up to the Republican leadership with company and introduced as wonderful men in what they had achieved in information, etc., yet came away astonished through the only value placed upon THE NEW YORK AGE. thir importance was the offer of a few dollars or a promise of money to quiet the demands of their follower. 'The formal opening for the winter's work of the Frederick Douglass Center was held last Tuesday evening. Many prominent people of both races were in attendance with a serious purpose to strike the organization mean to strike the people of this Center, than ever before. The program consisted mostly of reports made by Chicago people who had been in attendance at some of the big national gatherings held during the summer months, notably the National Business League, Physicians and Surgeons' National Convention and the National Association of Colored Women's Clubs. Dr. Hall spoke for the Business League, showing what a job Dr. Washington (who was a medical device that tend to make the Negro people a factor in our national development. Dr. A. W. Williams explained the work and progress of the National Association of the colored physicians, and Mrs. Fannie Barrier Williams spoke of the joys and sorrows of the National Association of Colored Women's Clubs, and gave a resume of the program as carried out, and the high purposes attached to it. Dr. William E. Manuel gave an interesting account of her rather strenuous work during the summer in connection with her studies in the Scholz of Cities and Philanthropy. RALPH W. TYLER AS AUDITOR. Han Made Many Promotions Since His Conversion With Navy Department. WASHINGTON, D. C., Oct. 7.—An example of the value of having the right kind of a race leader on guard is found in the unprecedented record made by Hon. Ralph W. Tyler, who as Auditor for the Navy Department, has been able to do a great deal for worthy young Negro men and women in the year and a half that he has held the office. He is generous to a fault, and in many instances has sought out clerks of known competence and without solicitation on their part made it possible for them to secure promotions that for one reason or another, had been denied them. In a single year and a fraction he has appointed five colored clerks in his office, and has had one colored laborer and two messengers promoted to clerkships. He has promoted one colored clerk to 1,000 and one clerk to 1,600, one from $1,200 to $1,600, one from $1,000 to $1,200, and one from $900 to $1,000 per annum, besides saving an accomplished young woman from being dropped from the service by asking that she be transferred to his office. Mr. Tyler took up personally with Secretary of War Taft the case of Chapain W. T. Anderson, of the 10th Cavalry, and secured his promotion to the rank of major, carrying with it an annual Chapain Anderson's hails from Cleveland, O. and is now stationed in the Philippines. Going again in person to Secretary Taft, Mr. Tyler intermediate in the case of Major John R. Lynch, a veteran paymaster in the army, who had been ordered before the retiring board. Through the persuasive powers of the Auditor, Major Lynch was undisturbed, and is still in the service. Later, he intermediate with the Inspector in the Immigration Bureau from being discharged. In the latter incident, he joined with Register W. T. Vernon, of Kansas, and Mr. Whitfield McKinlay, of South Carolina, Mr. Tyler has rendered other conspicuous service for members of his race, but these suffice to clinch the argument that the Negro voters of the country owe it to themselves to keep on guard of their forces. As a prisoner at Mr. Tyler, who can and will take his time and exert his influence to help men and women who are unable to help themselves, in the manner indicated. NEGRO DEMOCRATS ON THE RUN Bishop Clinton says the Waldron-Wallop Movement Has Spent Its Force. NEW ALANY, Ind., Sept. 30.—The Rt. Rev. George W. Clinton, of Charlotte, N. C. bishop of the Fourth District of the A. M. E. Zion connection, is visiting Mr. Thomas H. Johnson, the commissioner of military and political colleges of Southern Indiana. Bishop Clinton expressed himself as pleased with the outlook for Republican success in Indiana and the Middle West, and thinks the rank and file of the Negro voters will rally more and more strongly to Judge Taft as they become more familiar with his friendly attitude toward Negro progress and civic equality. He has been woefully misrepresented in his campaign of bishop-managers are wise, he thinks, in exerting themselves to correct the impression that has been created by the active opposition. He gave as his opinion that the Negro-American Political League, which was organized to defeat the candidacy of Judge Taft, has about spent its force. AGAINST "JIM CROWISM." Procede Against Railroads that Determine Against Negroes. WASHINGTON, D.C., October 7—President Roosevelt has given new evidence that he is determined that the railroads of the country that take advantage of their prerogative to separate the races shall conform to the law requiring equal accommodations to all who pay the same fare. The Interstate Commerce Commission, through its attorney, has instituted proceedings in the Middle District of Tennessee for an injunction, to restrain the Nashville, Chattanooga and St. Louis Railroad from further disobedience to the Commission's orders, and, also, from further discrimination between colored and white passengers by the Railroad, by the President in the early part of the preser year against thin and other railroads which have been most injunct in their discrimination. AN AFRO-AMERICAN JOURNAL OF NEWS AND OPINION For twenty-one years this publication has been issued once a week under the name of THE NEW YORK AGE. It assumed that title in September, 1897, after a more or less checkered career as The Freeman, The Globe and The Nummer. The last named was the original germ or root of the trouble and dated its inception back to 1858. Chief among its promoters was the late George Parky, with a corps of volunteers, embarking W. G. Christopher, F. P. Hayes, T. T. Symmons, Pierre Burgert, J. S. Stokley, Irene B. Johnson and others. With the addition of W. W. Sampom and T. Thomas Fortune on proprietors and the change of name to The Globe, it was put upon a more substantial basis, as a self-containing business enterprise. It grew steadily in influence and efficiency as an organ of race news and opinion, until its suspension in 1864. To its functions and responsibilities succeeded The Freeman, under the sole proprietorship of T. Thomas Fortune, until that changed three years later to THE AGE, with R. Fortune, Jr. and Jerome Fortune, no associate in the management. Fellowship among the management in 1867 came the retirement of T. Thomas Fortune, who was succeeded by Fred. R. Moore. Through all these changes the policy of the paper has been to serve the interests of the race, in such wise as seemed to premise the greatest good to the greatest number. Always advertising and seeking to further these movements and individuals that were engaged in the work of race betterment in every field of moral and material development. The results of such a policy, while slow, have been manifest in the steady growth of THE AGE as a business enterprise. Starting in 1897 with a force of but five men it now requires three or four times that number to do the actual work of getting out the weekly issue. While the four-page sheet containing twenty-four columns has been enlarged to six eight and sometimes twelve pages, comprising fifty-six to eighty-four columns, the advertising has swelled from scant two columns in ten or twelve times that number. In fact, the advertising column alone would furnish a faithful index to the growth of business enterprises and material development among the race in New York City. The mere fact of the existence of such a class paper on THE AGE upon a self-amalgamating basis in such a great city as New York in an evidence of the ability and willingness of the people to whom it enters to support race enterprise. It requires only the multiplication of that support by ten or twenty to give them all that they should have in the way of adequate journalistic representation. For the management of THE AGE is not satisfied with the small measure of growth and improvement it has so far been enabled to score. It is always reaching out to extend its plant and better its service in every possible situation, particularly largely on the measure of support it receives. Interactions and abortions would be an obstacle to its coming of age. THE AGE pledges itself now to the cause of race service and development, and here records its deep sense of appreciation of the stamina support of its many readers and subscribers during the post. That these may continue and multiply as the years increase and so enable the management to produce a paper ever growing in interest and attractiveness, while at the same time affecting more chances for employment to the youth of the race, in an inspiration not altogether natural. Speak—Bryan Quoted in. Recent Cooper Union Speech—Many Able Speakers Address Voters WATERBURY, Oct. 6.—At the rousing rally held under the auspices of the Colored Republican Club in this city, last Friday evening, the Hon. John C. Dancy, Recorder of Deeds, was the principal speaker. Mr. Dancy lived up to his reputation of being an eloquent speaker on several occasions stirred the audience by his oratory. James E. Kefford, secretary of the Negro Business League, presided. In introducing Congressman Lilley, candidate for Governor, Mr. Keford, said: "It gives me very great pleasure to be here to night in the capacity in which I am. I feel that this is one of the most important events of my life. To have the pleasure to stand upon this platform, being the son of an ex-slave, and introduce such distinguished gentlemen as these are here to night who are going to stand down by the immortal Lincoln, and agitated and perpetuated by our Grant, our Garfield, our Harrison and McKinley and that stalwart and fearless American, Theodore Roosevelt, is without question one of the best times of my life. "When my mind runs back 30 years and I review myself a little barefoot, ragged, ignorant boy on a Virginia plantation, living in an environment fully in keeping with my condition, with no indication of future, no intimation of opportunity in life, no advancement in view, and contrast that time with the present, I feel that I have many things to be thankful for. "And I am fully cognizant of the fact that I have been wafted from that condition to this, upon the waves of the high, lofty, time-honored principles of the Republican party and M. J. Byrne, George L. Lilley and William H. Taft all stand for the perpetuation of those principles. Now I take great pleasure in the need of not introduction) but in presenting you the next Governor of the State of Connecticut in the person of George L. Lilley." Mr. Lilley was greeted with a burst of applause and smilingly entered into the spirit of Mr. Kefford's introduction by stating that he himself had led pretty much the same kind of a life during his early boyhood. "Born on a small farm in the countryside, I worked for a living, for I pledged milk from about 8 o'clock in the morning until 8, went to school, returned to do the form chorus until 7 or 8 at night and kept this up seven days a week and 365 days in the year." He continued as follows: "It is a great pleasure to meet this large body of colored Republicans, among whom I number some of my stauchest friends. In the years that I have been in public life they have been my constant supporters, and I am glad of this opportunity again to thank them for the confidence they have had in me. My great success in the Democratic party is great in the from the States. Its leaders there, both in Senate and House, are Southerners of the most fiery stamp. If the Democratic party should be put in power on the fourth of March, next, how much consideration do you colored-men think you would get from 'Pitchfork Ben' Tillman or John Sharp Williams and the forces they lead? "The Democratic candidate for President, William J. Bryan, dare not open his mouth in this campaign on the Negro question. He would like you men to vote for him, but he dare not say a word in your favor for fear of turning enemies, the most Southerning of the party against himself. A thousand hornets would be as soothing balm to him compared with the trouble he would bring down upon himself if he dared to say as much as a single word for the colored man or as much as intimated that he would like his support. THE NEW YORK AGE IS OF EARLY this publication has been issued once in AGE. It assumed that title in September to The Freeman, The Globe and The Times, or root of the trouble and dated its inception the late George Parks, with a corpus of P. Hayen, T. T. Symmons, Pierre Burguer. With the addition of W. W. Sampson and an age of name to The Globe, it was put into business enterprise. Influence and efficiency as an organ of race. To its functions and responsibilities in ownership of T. Thomas Fortune, until that of Fortune, Jr. and Jerome Greenwood as upon the incorporation of the business and, who was succeeded by Fred. R.

The existence of such a class paper as THE city as New York is an evidence of its cater to support race enterprises. It requires ten or twenty to give them all that they are representation.

THE AGE pledge development, and here records its deep penny renders and subscribers during the money increase and so enable the most interest and attractiveness, while at the end to the youth of the race, is an inspirative "The only thing I remember Bryan's having said on the Negro question is that if we were in the South we would do just as the Southerners have done, meaning the disfranchisement of the Negro." John C. Dancy was then introduced. After expressing his "unbounded felicity" at being able to be present at the rally, he referred to his visit six years ago when he was introduced by General Kellogg, father of City Attorney John P. Kellogg. "I am a Republican;" he continued, "and I enjoy that distinction not because I am the son of a slave, but because I was a slave myself. I am a Republican because it was the Republican party which made it possible for me to be anything. We it not for the Republican party. I would still be a slave unless I should have taken the courage to escape across the line to Canada. "Some of my people have told me that the Democratic party has been as friendly to the Negro as the Republicans have. But they haven't stopped to consider that splendid galaxy of men in the Republican party who stood by us throughout the contention that led to the civil strife. On the one hand was the Republican party for slavery, for after all that was the main issue—the Negro. It is true that were other broader governmental lines of argument, but narrowed down to its essence, down at the bottom of it all was—the Negro. "Who took our side? This Republican party. Who opposed us at every crossroad? The Democratic party. And it was the splendid stroke of a mighty pen of a martyred President, a Republican, that caused four million slaves to come leaping out of darkness into light. And arrested against us was the Democratic party.

Recently Advocated Adverse Legislation St. Louis, October 7.—There is great activity being shown in this campaign by the Negro voters of Missouri, who are threatened with...Negro legislation in the event of the election of Cowherd, the nominee for Governor on the Democratic ticket. It will be remembered that only a few months ago Cowherd introduced a resolution at the Democratic State convention, in session to elect delegates to the Denver Convention, which AGE are a week under the name Miller, 1857, after a more of Rummer.

Although the resolution was smothered, it is said that the man put up by the Democrats for Governor will make another attempt to disfranchise the Negro voters of Missouri should be elected. Knowing that the Legislature has also much to do with enacting such farfarious laws no little attention is also being paid to the legislative candidies. On the question of Taft and Sherman the voters are unanimously in favor of the men who represent the Republican party. The Hon. J. Milton Turner, Charles Turner, Wheeler, Nelson Crews, Judge Bradley, George H. Jordan, Attorney Hesion, Dr. T. C. Unthank and others active in the interest of the Republican party, and all predict that Herbert Hadley will be the next Governor of Missouri. John A. Lankford, the well-known architect, has recently visited many sections of Missouri and says he feels confident that the Negro voters will rally around the Republican Lanner in November and assist in placing Missouri in the Republican column for the National and State tickets. The Republicans are in good shape in Missouri, and in selecting Attorney-general Hadley to succeed Gov. Folk and of the strongest campaigners that has been born in the ticket. Having gained distinction fighting corrupt corporations, he has made himself very popular with the people of that State. While in St. Louis, Mr. Lawford met many St. Louisians including the Hop. J. Milton Turner, who has since gone to Ohio and Indiana to speak for the Republican ticket. Mr. Turner is a powerful speaker, and was Minister to Liberia for several years. He went over to the Democracy when Cleveland run in 1808, "but never again for me," says Turner. "To Mr. Lankford he called attention to the radical difference between the decent Democratic party of those divas and the narrow, unprogressive party that Bryan is now leading to another dimestrous defeat. He warns the Negro people against the plausible argument put up by the opposition in favor of division of the Negro vote, to show manhood. He has tried to "divide," but got the worst of it, and like the burat child, dreads the fire this year. Other Republicans at St. Louis who are hard at work for the ticket are A. W. Lloyd, who leads the Pythians; Prof. E. L. Williams, who succeeded the late Prof. Arthur D. Langton as president of the Dauisne School; P. Murray, the veteran editor of the St. Louis Advance, and Paul W. Mosley. NEW CHURCH AT NEW HAVEN. New Haven, Oct. 5.—The laying of the cornerstone of the new Zion A. M. E. Church, Rev. C. S. Whitted pastor, which is in course of construction at Dixwell avenue. and Charles street, took place Sunday, October 4, at 2:30 p. m. Widow's Sons Lodge, No. 1, A. F. and A. M. formed in line at Masonic Temple at 1.65 p. m. and marched to where the ceremonies began. Widow's Sons Lodge was escorted by St. Paul's Commandry, No. 9, K. T. under command of Captain Daniel Tighman, with the Second Regiment Band in the van. The subject began by the reading subject was "Ready to be Offered." Col-This was followed by a selection by the choir. The invocation was offered by Rev. C. H. Yearwood. Selection by the choir. Judge Heaton Robertson then made a warm and telling speech pertaining to the uplift and progress of the church. Colonel U. Illman followed in a very neat and appropriate address. Rev. Dr. A. Clyton Powell came next. He never fails to please his hearers. Attorney G. W. Crawford made a brief speech appropriate to the occasion; selections by the band. Hon. John C. Dancy closed the speech-making by giving a brief resume of the advancement of the A. M. E. Church from its inception down to the present time. The Masonic ceremony was next performed conducted by Brother William J. Hargret, Grand Master of the Ancient, Free and Accepted Marons of the State of Connecticut. The Grand Master was assisted by the Grand Lodge in general communication. Over 4,000 people witnessed the ceremonies. The contributions placed in the cornerstone by Grand Treasurer John W. Ross, Sr., were as follows: Bible, by Miss Edna Biddle; hymn book, Rev. C. S. Whited; discipline, Mr. P. H. Davis; Star of Zion, Zion Trumpet, conference minutes, historic matter, and other church literature; table-able of N. Y., N. H. & H. R. R., by Rev. E. George Biddle, D. D. P. E MEETING A BIG FROST. National Protective League in Binghampton—Things Look Bright for Republmen. BALTIMORE, Oct. 7—Such a farce was the meeting of the National Protective League, held in this city last Friday evening, that the promoters are not through telling those whom they meet just why it was not a big and significant affair as was promised. It is doubtful if they will hold another meeting here soon. About one hundred persons attended. Half of the number were present out of curiosity to see what the league was going to be. It was also noticeable that in the audience were many who are not qualified to vote. The sentiment in this State is for the ticket, and there are but few, if any, who will stray from the Republican party. The Negro voters are registering large numbers, and will do much to make Maryland go for Taft and Sherman. Complete to Interstate Commission of Railroad Accommodations. ATLANTA. October 5.—Representing the Interstate Commerce Commission, J. Edgar Smith, special examiner, on September 17, began taking testimony in the complaint of Bishops W. J. Gaines and Henry M. Turner, of Atlanta; E. W. Lampton, of Washington, D. C.; C. S. Smith, of Detroit, and E. Tyree, of Nashville, lodged with that body against the Seaboard Air Line, the Richmond, Potomac and Fredericksburg, the Southern Railway and the Central of Georgia and the Pullman Car Company. The hearing will be resumed this morning. The complaints are all Negro ministers. Some months ago they went before the Interstate Commerce Commission, commissioned that they be given privileges for which they paid. At the initial session in Atlanta in the federal building a large number of attorneys were present. R. W. Moore, of Washington, with Sanders McDaniel and others, were present to care for the railroads against which charges have been made, while G. S. Fenald, of Chicago, and Albert Howell of Dorsay, Brewster, Howell & Hahman, were ready as attorneys for the Pullman Company. Bishop Gaines, of Atlanta; Bishop Smith, of Detroit, and Bishop Turner, of Atlanta, were examined. Each of these witnesses declared they were not only not given equal accommodations with the whites on train, and that white men should do a white man, they are giving wholly inferior accommodations. Bishop Gaines and Bishop Smith were conservative in their testimony, but Bishop Turner was pronounced, decided and at them radical in his declarations. CAMPAIGN ON IN MANHATTAN Large and Enthusiastic Meeting Last Week in New York GOVERNOR HUGHES Speaks to Negro Voters and is Accorded an Ovation—Cheered Upon Entering the Church MAKES NO PROMISES Ex-Governor P. B. S. Plankhack Mahoe a Rousing Speech—Lincoln Johnson, Rev. Madison Potter, and Others Speak Contrary to the sensational report of a daily newspaper, the most successful political mass meeting of the Negroes of this city during this campaign was the large Hughes meeting held last Thursday evening at Bethel A. M. E. Church, of which Rev. R. C. Ranson is pastor. Governor Hughes and ex-Governor Pinchback were the principal speakers, and their talks aroused great enthusiasm. If the sentiment of the thousand people present is an index of New York's feeling, then Negro voters of this city are overwhelmingly in favor of the Republican party and clean government and will act accordingly in November. A half dozen well-known Negro Democrats with a handful of their hangeron were present to mar the success of the meeting, but their disgraceful as well as faint efforts ended miserably as is usually the case. Held under the auspices of the Republican County Committee, Mr. Arthie Roberts, a member of the Colored Republican Club and a Wetland trustee, met the meeting. In a happy tribute to ex-Governor P. B. S. Pinchback, "as the last of the Old Guard," Mr. Roberts introduced him to preside over the meeting. The old "war horse" holds as unique a place in the hearts of New York Negroes as he did in the political life of the South after the war. Carrying conviction in every word he made a dramatic plea for common sense, judgment and the Republican party—"the party of our friends." From a long and bitter acquaintance with the Democratic party of this country, he said: "I am here to tell you that the Democratic party's slogan—Shall the People Rule?—is mockery and a farce. In the South where the Democratic party rules, the people do not rule, and our people do not' and cannot help it." Holding his impressed hearers under the gell of his cool and experienced counsel, he said: "The election of Bryan means the death knell of our political rights, not only in the South, but in the border States as well." Governor Hughes concluded the meeting following the short and eloquent addresses made by Messrs. Fred. R. Moore, Henry Lincoln Johnson, of Georgia, and Rev. Madison C. Peters. As the Governor came into the church the people jumped to their feet and greeted him with rounds of applause. In character he said: "The people neither sought to soothe the Negro with flattery or friendship; nor did he make any promises to fulfil in the event of his election. He only preached good, straight Republican doctrine, reasoning with his audience, as lovers of law and progress, to support the Republican ticket, State as well as National. During his talk he said: "I am very glad to be with you again. I remember what an enthusiastic Something, has happened to me. We have been on the job. I told you then that if I was elected I was going to give an impartial government, and I have done my best to do so. "If you elect me again, I cannot say that I will do more than that. Sometimes I appreciate the truth of the story Lincoln told on one occasion when he was asked how he liked being President. He replied. It is like a man riding on a rail. It would be better walking if it were for the honor of riding. "There are duties of and an abiding faith in the institutions of this country. We have founded and preserved this government at a great expenditure of blood and treasure. My object is to make those institutions work as they were intended to work, without grinding the political axes of any one at the expense of the public. I have tried to give an honest administration. This election is not a choice of an individual, but will decide whether or not the people are going to rebuke the efforts made in behalf of their institutions." Lincoln Republican House Meeting STATEN ISLAND, N. Y., October 8. The smoker given last week by the Linnette Republican Club of Port Richmond was a highly enjoyable affair. A. J. P. Branniff, leader of the Richmond County Republicans, and Mr. H. E. Boell, interimendent of highways: Memory, D. D. Butts and J. C. Twine. Resolutions endorsing Taft and Sherman and Governor Hughes were mathematically adopted.

Miss Beatrice was gracefully acted as mistress of members. After prayer by Mr. Eto- son Clarke Jones recited. He was encouraged by a piano solo by Sylvester Burrell, a solo by Beatrice Long and reduction by Harold Ellis. The solo by William Trott was followed by a presentation by Madeline Ferguson and a piano solo by Nellie Caldwell.

St. Benedict's Nearly a thousand people made the trip to St. Benedict's Home in Rye on last Sunday, Oct. 1. the afternoon, 4, and every one of them enjoyed a delightful afternoon. It was the seventeenth anniversary of the opening of the institution. One of the pleasing features of this trip is found in the large number of young men and women who were once in the Home, and who go back at least on this one day every year to see the Franciscan Sisters who are in charge. The regular winter services will be resumed in St. Benedict's Church on Sunday, October 11. High Mass with sermon at 11 o'clock and Vespers with sermon at 8 o'clock in the evening.

Robinson was in charge of the exercises, which were interesting and very instructive. The address by Dr. John C. Love, of Montclair, N. J., on "A Need of Real Men and Real Women," was eloquent and practical. The Choral Union rendered "Santus" very effectively. The stirring address by Hon. George E. Witecan, Jr., of Brooklyn, on "Courage, Consciousness and Character," was an able effort, bubbling over with many thoughts necessary as a warning to the men and women at the political crisis through which we are passing. He forced them back because of the time and place. A baritone solo by Mr. A. Watson and a recitation, "The Vesper Bell," given by Miss Daisy Travers, of New Jersey, were pleasing efforts. Beth Tubillah The regular semi-monthly meeting of the Literary Club of Beth Tphillah Mission, 63 West 134th street, was held on Thursday evening, October 2. An excellent program was presented. The meeting was addressed by a Mr. Hendricks, a Yale graduate, who is now at the General Theological Seminary of New York. The speaker's remarks were of a sound, practical nature, and were well appreciated by the audience. The Rev. Charles Martin, pastor, in a few introductory remarks told how the former speaker, in years past, had formulated his ideal, and had worked manfully up to it. He advised all present to have some ideal of attainment, and then work up to it, as ideals without work are useless. The numbers rendered by the recently organized orchestra were fine, and among other choice selections of a varied nature were the song, "Forever," by Mrs. George Hazel; violin solo, Mr. Grimes; clarionet solos, Mr. Withey, and vocal solo, "A Memory."

Boyd and Mrs. Dora Moy Petersom; of Kingston. Rev. Mr. Goba, a Zulu of South Africa, was present, and told of the pleasure he had received from being present at the meeting. He made all present laugh by telling them that he felt altogether at home, "because," he said, "I can see that you look just like my people and your people in South Africa." ] Rev. Charles N.

Sales, J. M. Proctor, J. D. Stevens, D. Estes, J.-H. Accooe, J. C. White, Thomas Chase and A. A. Cooper. Counsellor James L.

Brief addresses were made by Rev. H. H. Pinckney, Brother Wells, John N. Green, Miss Ida Johnson and Miss Gates. Vocal solos were rendered by Reverdy C. Ransom, Jr., and Miss Diggs and a piano solo by Miss Marpone Jones, a graduate of the Conservatory of Music. A warm welcome was accorded ex-Governor Pinchback, who was introduced to the audience by Rev. Ransom. He made a brief address. Bishop Gaines was introduced by Lawyer Curtis. The Bishop spoke of his work and of the affection shown him by his clergy and people, and related his most recent experience in fighting for the rights of his people before the Interstate Commerce Commission in being refused privileges for which they paid. He told of the determination of those associated with him to fight the matter to the end. Five hundred dollars were contributed by Bishops Smith, Turner and himself as a retaining fee to counsel. The Bishop said he was not a politician and did not mix in politics only when he felt that it was necessary, and he felt it necessary at this time that he should speak out in favor of the Negro supporting the Republican party. He urged in strongest language such support. He had no word of condemnation for those of his brethren who disagreed on the subject, but predicted that if the Democratic party was successful the progress of the Negro would be retarded a hundred years. The remarks of the Bishop were warmly applauded. A nice sum was presented him, and he offered to divide it with the pastor. A banquet was served after the talks. Bishop Gaines escorted Mrs. Ransom and Governor Pinback Mrs. Curtis. Others present were Mrs. James C. Thomas. Miss Jones, who is the guest of Mrs. Ransom; Mr. Archie Roberts and Mr. Broughton. All congratulated the Bishop on his sixty-ninth birthday and his fiftieth year in the ministry.

ENDORSE TICKET IN NEW HAVEN Explains Judge Taft's Position on Suffrage Question. Negroes of State United for Nominee of Republican Ticket. NEW HAVEN, Conn., October 5—Hon. John C. Datey, Recorder of Deeds for the District of Columbia, formally opened the campaign among the colored voters of the State last Thursday night. A large crowd turned out to hear the distinguished speaker, and he was given a term reception, and extensive preparations had been made by the local clubs and the meeting was a tremendous success from every point of view. Mr. Daney was interesting and eloquent for an hour and a half. In that time he more than convinced his hearers that the retention of the Republican party in power was absolutely essential to the nation. He explained Judge Taft's position on the suffrage question and read extracts from his speeches in which he took high ground in support of the race and for the enforcement of the 14th, 14th and 15th Amendments to the Federal Constitution. We speaker believed that Taft would make the greatest Presidents the nation has ever had and would rank side by side with Washington, Lincoln and Roosevelt. The names of Lincoln, Roosevelt and Taft engulf the heartiest cheers, and Booker T. Washington and Frederick Douglass came in for a "good hand." Mr. Daney attributed the proess of the progo to the opportunity provided by the Kentucky government and to our sense of duty. The Democratic party always stood like a stone wall against our advancement. The Republican Loyal Legion was organized with the following officers: President, Colonel Edward Randolph; vice-president, J. Oscar Jones; secretary, W. F. Pierce; treasurer, R. H. Musc.

After a preamble setting forth the virtues, and patriotic services of Taft and Sherman, the following resolution was unanimously adopted: "Be it resolved, that We heartily endorse the entire national platform adopted by the Republican constitution at Chicago and pledge ourselves to support the National and State tickets." Connecticut colored Republicans are united for Taft and Sherman and the race throughout the State will do its utmost to hold the electoral vote in line for them. Following are the members of the Taft Club of the Loyal Legion: Edward Randolph, president; vice presidents and secretaries. D. M. F. Allen, H. Smith R. Inee, G. H. Barley, J. P. Johnson, Rice R.

Before a Large Crowd Advises Them to Vote for Taft. A large crowd at St. James' Church, Newark, N. J., October 5. Rt. Rev. Wesley J., Gaines of Atlanta, Ga., praised the Republican party at a large meeting held in St. James' African Methodist Episcopal Church. His remarks upon the political situation affecting the Negro were received with enthusiasm. Bishop Gaines in his speech advocated the election of William H. Taft as a means of furthering the interests of the race. He said in part: "Mr. Bryan and his party offer no reason that justifies the Negro's opposition to H. Taft. On the other hand, the attitude of the Democratic party in Congress and in the country toward the Negro justifies the Negro in withholding from it his suffrage. "No party has a claim upon the Negro that closes the doors of hope against him and that will not go upon record to protect his rights. Mr. Taft and the Republican party are upon record as to the hope held out for the Negro. Taft is interested in the education of the Negro. He is one of the trustees of the $1,000,000 set apart for the education of Negro children in the South. He accepted this trust because of the interest he had in the education of the Negro as the best solution of his problem. "Now the test comes as to whether the Negro will "love himself capable of standing love to the party nominee who he had so far as to his plight." I appeal to you as me to be loyal and true to yourselves and your children and to the best interest of our country. The bishop was in fine voice and his speech made a great impression on his hearers.

TYLER SPEAKS Warmly Received by Ohio Republican Club—New from Washington. WASHINGTON, D. C., Oct. 6—Auditor Ralph W. Tyler was given a warm reception Thursday evening by the Ohio Republican Association at their hall on Sixth street. Some weeks ago the president invited Mr. Tyler to speak before the association, but this was the first available opportunity that had presented itself for his acceptance. The audience, numbering over 1,000 was entirely white, but a more cordial and sympathetic hearing was never given a speaker than that which the gathering accorded to Mr. Tyler throughout the forty-five minutes that he held the stage. Without wasting words in tisseleology of the Republican nominees, Mr. McKenna brought out cogent reasons why they should be elected and why the Republican party should be given a vote of confidence and permitted to go on with its constructive and prosperity-producing policies. In his opinion the best interests of the laboring classes, the manufacturers, the monarchs, the finance, the farmers, the ministers, the railroads and steamships, the housewife and the domestic helper—including the Negroes identified with all of these activities—would be most effectively served by continuing the Republican party at the helm of the ship of state. "As far as the special interests of the race are concerned," said Mr. Tyler, "the Democratic party is without an argument. It has for a century stood like a hungry wolf between the Negro and his vested rights. Whatever has been accomplished for the uplift of the black man, morally or materially, has come through the Republican party; and the future of the race is bound up almost wholly in the success of the party of Roosevelt and Taft in this, contest. The Negro is naturally a Republican, but does not vote for, the party entirely because of gratitude for past favors. He studies the fiscal and economic issues. His growing strength in the arena of music and knowledge of the fundamental principles of the diverse industries are causing him to take of the things that affect the stock market and influence trade and fix values. He is standing by the Republican party, not only because of the abolition of slavery, but because its sound policies make his business interest secure and protect his family from the distress that would be apt to grow out of Democratic mismanagement." Mr. Tyler referred to the proud history of the men who had come up from Ohio and had made an indelible impression upon the nation, and thought that William Howard Tait would be the greatest of the long line of Presidents that the dukeye State had placed in the White House. He was given a rousing encore upon the conclusion of his convincing address. It was indeed "Tyler Night" at the hall of the Ohio Republican Association, and the "glad hand" was extended upon all sides. Mr. John Puryear has gone to Claremont, Va., to enter the Temperance Industrial and Collegiate Institute. Mrs. A. M. Curtis, who has had much experience in campaign work and enjoys a remarkable influence among the women of the West, is identified with Mrs. J. Ellen Foster, of Iowa, in the organization of the women of the country. Mrs. Curtis believes that in the final analysis this campaign will be determined by the women who make the homes and rear THE NEW YORK AGE: THURSDAY, OCTOBER 8, 1908. ROBERT W.

Anderson's Deputy, Taken Polio. Robert Ignatius Plummer, deputy revenue collector under Chas. W. Anderson, committed suicide last Saturday morning at his home, 24 West 134th street, by taking cyanide of potassium. Thought to be exercising in his room when his mother called him to breakfast and he did not respond promptly. At the time, he was a mother found him dead upon the floor. A glass partly emptied of the poison nearby, told the story. The dead man was a son of Robert Plummer. He was 30 years old and unmarried. He was an election inspector in his district and a year ago was Republican captain of the Fifteenth Election District of the Twenty-first Assembly District. He was at one time also a member of the New York County Committee. In addition he belonged to the Manhattan Republican Club to the City, and to the Alpha Physical Culture Club.

WALTON ABOUT THE STARS AND SHOWS Since the opening of the theatrical season the following query has been put to the writer time and time again: "How is Hogan; do you think he will be able to return to the stage soon?" With a view to learning the true physical condition of the "Unbleached American" for the benefit of the many readers of THE AGE as well as for himself, the writer made a journey last Sunday to Glen Gardner, N. J., where the well-known comedian is located on the Banghart Farm with his mother and a niece. He calls the place "Bungaloo Louise," having named it after his mother, Mrs. Louise Crowdus. It can be said that Ernest Hogan is much improved in health. In fact, his attending physician says his patient is in better condition physically to-day than he has been for many months, and that the chances are favorable for his ultimate recovery. Equally as optimistic are Hurtig & Seamon, Ernest Hogan's managers, who believe that it is only a question of months before their most valuable asset will be able to return to musical comedy and make the people laugh as of yore. So far as the comedian is personally concerned, he has always declared that it would be only a question of a short time before he returned to the stage, and he is more confident of so doing since his recent gradual improvement than ever before. In the meantime many want to know if the "Oyster Man" is to go out this season with a new comedian. In the opinion of the writer, Hurtig & Seamon do not intend to give the public a colored show this season, at least for several months to come. They are not making any preparation to do so, and when you ask them their intentions they will tell you they have none on that score. It is true that they made arrangements with Harrison Stewart to head the "Oyster Man" Company this season, but it is unlikely that the organization will be taken out of New York City. Hurtig & Seamon seem to be looking forward to one important event—the recovery of Ernest Hogan so he can resume his role with their large colored aggregation. It is not so much from a standpoint of sentiment that they adopt such a course as it is from business. Ernest Hogan has established himself as a strong drawing card in the best houses of the Stair and Havin Circuit. His appearance over the circuit means money. On the other hand, to take a new comedian into the fold means first, that a reputation has to be made; and secondly, that the same houses would not be given the show to play in but the second-class houses of the circuit. Taking into consideration that this is election year, which is deemed a bad season for the theatrical business until after the first part of November, Hurtig & Seamon have given out that no coloured show will be presented at this time, which shuts up all talk of an immediate rehearsal of the "Oyster Man" company for a road tour as has been rumored. This is a most important year for Williams and Walker, the two comedians who have been for years fighting for first-class theaters—and rightly so. If they secure first-class prices this year and make good it means much for them as well as the Negro performer in general. Since they made their debut in musical comedy these two comedians have done more pioneer work in the matter of demanding recognition for the colored performer than all others. Should they succeed in securing first-class houses for their attractions other colored shows would profit by their efforts. As George Walker admits, it is, indeed, a difficult task to convince the white managers that a colored show should play to first-class prices, despite the fact that Williams and Walker are considered one of the strongest drawing cards in the show business. Then, after the managers are convinced, they do not act accordingly. An example of the obstacles the comedians are encountering was shown in Boston, where the company played to large houses for several weeks and was the hit of the "Hub" city. Before leaving New York it was agreed that they were to receive $1.50 prices at the Orpheum Theatre, which is being managed by the Shuberts. However, they were dismayed to learn that some of the best seats were being sold for $1.00. As the show was doing a big business, it was agreed to let the prices remain unchanged, with a promise that in the future the attraction would play to first-class prices. With the large and expensive show Williams and Walker are carrying it is utterly impossible for them to make the money to which they are entitled unless they play to first-class prices. As they are giving a first-class musical show they should get value received for the goods they are producing. "Bandanna Land" is booked to play the Shubert houses this season, and we await the result with interest. Cole and Johnson have given the public a unique musical comedy in "The Red Moon," and reports from the various cities in which the company has appeared are very satisfactory. In Philadelphia, Pittsburgh and Cleveland the new show greatly pleased the theater-goers, and it The group consists of five men standing side by side, dressed in formal attire. They appear to be in a formal setting, possibly a courtroom or a public event. The men are wearing suits, ties, and hats, suggesting a formal occasion. The background is plain and does not provide any additional context. READING FROM LEFT TO RIGHT TOP BOW—BOS COLE, LESTER A. WALTON, SAM CORKER, JA. BERT A. WILLIAMS, JAMES REESE EUROPE, ALEX. RCJERS. BOTTOM TOP, TOWN, BROW, J. ROBAMOND JOHNSON, GEO W. WALKER, J. A. SHIPP, R. C. MCPHERSON. is highly probable that a very successful season is in store for the well-known song writers and comedians. All who see "The Red Moon" are sure to enthusiastically refer to the scenery and staging of the piece; and Bob Cole has written a part for himself which gives him an opportunity to show that he is capable of doing comedy on legitimate lines. J. Rosamond Johnson is improving wonderfully in his acting and READING FROM LEFT TO RIGHT TO BOTTOM appears to more advantage than in the "Shoo-fly Regiment." This should be a great season for Cite and Johnson. Although the Smart Set Company was booked for twelve weeks in the South, it is now playing in the East. Monday the company opened in Boston for a week's run. For the remainder of the season S. H. Dudley and his company will entertain the public north of Mason and Dixon's line, and it will be a long time before they make a Southern tour again. Forty-odd people are with the show, and with only the colored people attending the performances it was soon found out that the company would be out many thousands of dollars should it remain South for any length of time. Thus the sudden cancelling of the Southern time and the trip East. This season promises to be a profitable one for the "Black Patti Troubadours" the only colored show that can go South and make money. We are also glad to state that Voelckel and Nolan have seen it to give the public a better show than they have presented for a number of years. It has always been a source of wonder to the writer why the managers of "Black Patti" have not written a better story around the great singer, given her a larger company and put her in the best houses controlled by Stair and Havlin. Yet when one considers that at the end of the season Voelckel and Nolan are able to show more profit than any of the other colored shows it can be readily seen that they are out to make money, even if they have to do one night stands week after week. Mme. Sissieretta Jones is reported to be in excellent voice this season, and her thirteenth year under the present management should be productive of many good results. SECOND WEEK AT HURR'S Moore's Mindstress Have Several New Features. Although this is only the second week of the New Orleans Minstrels at Huber's, Joe Moore has seen fit, with the assistance of Al Watts, to give the patrons of that house several new features, including a new after piece and a number of new songs. The management is so highly pleased with the show the minstrels are giving that it is likely they will remain at Huber's for several months. There is more ginger in evidence and the unnecessary talk has been cut. The girls in the show would form a better picture were they to smile as though they enjoyed their work from the beginning to end, instead of making those in the audience imagine that at intervals they were posing to have a picture taken with an a la pensive facial expression. Nettie Scott opens the minstrel first part this week with "Kiss Me Right," and scores. She is followed by De Van, the bass singer who, in his song—"Good Old Georgia," is heard to far more advantage than last week. Mamie Further next sings and acts "Love Me Like I Like To Be Loved." Midgert Price almost broke up the show with her song, "Stop Making Faces at Me," in which she was insisted by the chorus. We did not count the encore. George Bass proves a valuable addition to the company from a comedy standpoint. He is doing some good work, but should not be so busy during the singing of ballads and De Van's song. Laughs are not called for in such numbers and places the singers at a disadvantage. He sings "It Ain't What You Use to Have, It's What You've Got Right Now." The after piece, called "The Dark Town Court," produces many good laughs. The moon song which was THE FROGS TOP ROW-BOB COLE. LESTER A. WALTON. M ROW-TOM. BROWN. J.

Boston Oct 6 - After a jump out over a thousand miles, the Smart Set Company came to this city and opened at the Globe Theatre for a week. This is the first appearance of this company at the Globe Theatre, and Dudley and his people are doing their utmost to make a most favorable impression. Judging from the size of the houses at each performance, the theatre-goers of Boston are not tired of colored shows. Williams and Walker just left the city after playing here four weeks, and the Smart Set followed. THE RED MOON IN DETROIT. At Lyceum Theater This Week—Notice About the Members of Company, "Dexteron, October 6.—This is the sixth week of "The Red Moon" Company, which period at the Liceum Theatre Sunday for a week's engagement.

"The Pathway of Love." Frank Fowler Brown, Fannie Wise, Theo and Anna Pankey and Arthur Talbott have parts in the second act of "The Red Moon," never before attempted by colored actors. Who is who, and why? is the question after every performance of "The Red Moon." The cast and chorus of the show is so well balanced that to say which one is liked the best is positively a pretty puzzling proposition. Although having not a line, Marie Young never fails to attract attention to herself in the part of "Waneta, an Indian girl, by her lifelongness and pictureque appearance in the second act.

From the enthusiasm manifested toward everything in the show it must have been rendered in an enjoyable manner. Miss Irene Gaines is again in our company singing her rich contralto songs and is also understudy for a principal part for which the management has already seen that she is thoroughly fitted. Homer Tutt and Salem Tutt Whitney have an olio number that is out of the general run of entertainments and scores heavy hits nightly.

The tour includes performances in Switzerland, Belgium, Germany and Russia, and she will return by way of Austria, Italy and the south of France, and will appear in a new piece in Paris on January 5. Her repertoire for the continental excursion includes "L'Aiglon," "La Sorviere," "La Tosca," "Les Boufons," "Le Passe," "La Dame Aux Camelias," "Adrienne Lecourreur" and "Phedre." JAMES REESE EUROPE.

Allen and Harry S. Middleton Talk In support of the recent statement of THE Age that New York Negroes are practically solid for Taft and Hughes, facts and figures are coming in daily in support of that contention. The Negro is not being blindly led by his enemies or sentiments as many think and as his enemies' hope. He is practical and sensible to a degree little recognized. But while practical he is not venal. Although safely sensible he is keenly sensitive. In this week's paper might be mentioned the influential pastor of Mother Zion A. M. E, Church, Dr. J. H. McMullen. When interviewed last Saturday Rev. McMullen said: "In my congregation of a thousand members I find no detection whatever from the Republican ticket and Mr. Taft. While not denouncing anybody, if there is any common sense or philosophy in the appeal for Bryan I can't see it. "The Negro is not excited and he has nothing to be excited about. If Taft is elected, and I am sure he will be, he will have the Negro to thank in large measure." Editor T. Thomas Fortune recently said; "Everything indicates the election of Taft and Sherman. It is to be regretted that there is so much dissatisfaction among Negroes of New England, Ohio and Indiana. There is no basis of discontent which could not be safely composed. It is hoped that this will be done in time to prevent any considerable number of Negro voters giving aid and comfort to the Democratic enemy. Everything points to the election of Gov. Hughes, one of our wisest and most courageous Governors. "The success, of a man of Governor Hughes' courage and character is of more importance to Negro voters than others." One of the most influential hotel men in this community, respected by all who know him for his honesty and ability, is Mr. George A. Curry, of the Stuyvestant district of Brooklyn. Mr. Curry has amassed considerable wealth as the employer and director of hundreds of Negroes at hotels in Saratoga and New Orleans. At his home he said: "Taft is going to be elected. The Negro will do his share in electing him, too. From sources which I can trust I believe Taft will be one of the greatest friends the Negro has ever had in the Presidential chair." Discussing the remarkable change that has been wrought recently in the morality of New York State, he said: "With two more years of Hughes, New York State will be thoroughly clean. The people are going to re-elect him." Mr. George W. Allen, president of St. Mark's Lyceum, the oldest and perhaps the largest literary society in New York, said: "Just say for me, the Negro cannot afford to let the Democratic party get in power." Dancing Master M. M. Mimms, a success at his business and with a large following, said: "Every Negro who has a family and children and every sensible Negro will vote for Taft. Every time a colored man thinks of the Democratic party he sees Tillman and Vardaman staring him in the face." Mr. Harry Y. Middleton, president of the Colored Republican Club, the largest and most effective Negro political organization in the country, said Saturday in the palatial club rooms: "At the extreme outside there will not be a five per cent. defection from Taft and Hughes among New York Negroes. The majority of Negroes whom I meet on street corners and in barber shops all state frankly their Republicanisms. Some will express dissatisfaction, but they, with the others, sum it up in some such way as this: 'But after all, I guess Taft's all right. His father was all right—an Abolitionist, you know. He said we were Americans just the same as he is. He is going to get my vote. I want to see if he will protect us and our rights, as he has promised.'" Ask a Negro about the Democratic party and he will say at once: "They don't want you. Some few want to use you, that's all. Did not Bryan say the Democrats in the South had to disfranchise the Negro and he didn't blame her. I wouldn't vote for him for $5,000." A local preacher with a large congregation of the middle classes of Negroes said in his sermon last Sunday night: "It is more impossible for the Negro to be a Democrat than it is for a camel to go through the eye of a needle. Steel will bend and stretch, but the Democratic party cannot stretch enough to take in the black man so long as the 'South is in control." BLACKS FACE TO ROB White Man, Caught by Police With Ear Excused—Carried Iron Bolt and Razor Frustrated in his attempt to waylay and rob Desso Fuchs, who keeps a saloon at No. 1446 Broadway, his former employer, Frank Grandre, a waiter, of No. 31 East 130th street, declared to the police that he had been forced to become a thief because he was unable to obtain work. When arrested Grandre was made up as a Negro with his face blackened and carried a long iron bolt wrapped in a towel and a razor. Until a few weeks ago Grandre had been employed in Schultz's cafe, at No. 1446 Broadway, which is owned by Fuchs, who lives at No. 104 West 130th street. Mr. Fuchs discharged Grandre and since then the latter has been unable to obtain work. A few days ago, the police say, Grandre met Harry Mayland, a bartender in that Fuchs' place, and proposed to him that they hold up the proprietor some night, and after knocking him out, take the heirs of the saloon away from him and rob the place. He explained to Mayland, it is alleged, that Fuchs being a cripple the job would be an easy one. Mayland notified the police and Detectives Little, Walsh and Shea were assigned to the case. Two of the 'detectives shadowed Grandpre, while the third followed Fuchs. Grandpre, when he left his home, wore a frock coat and a derby hat. The detectives say they saw him enter a house in West 118th street, and that when he came out he had on different clothes and that his face was blackened and he had on black gloves, giving him the appearance of a Negro. In a short time Fuchs came along, but the detectives decided to arrest their man before he had a chance to make an attack on his victim, and they walked over, to him. Grandpre saw them coming and ran into a basement. When the detectives followed him Grandpre surrendered. COL RUCKER TALKS POLITICS Han. Sounded Sentiment Throughout Country—People for Tuft. WASHINGTON, D. C., Oct. 5.—Col. Henry A. Rucker, of Atlanta, for nearly twelve years Collector of Internal Revenue for the District of Georgia, was in the city a few days ago and kindly consented to take on a number of pertinent issues for the benefit of the public. Col. Rucker is a recognized leader of thought and action in his State and is one of the best-informed and most highly-regarded men in the country, irrespective of race. His opinions are deferred to by the substantial forces, white and black, in Atlanta, and what he has to say is listened to at all times with credence and respect. In response to a question as to the extent of his travels in the North, Col. Rucker said: "I have touched at a number of points in New York, Pennsylvania, New Jersey and Maryland, and affil only resting here a short time before returning home. I enjoyed every moment of my stay in the North and cannot described how deply I was impressed with the solid prosperity of the men I met at the Baltimore convention of the National Negro Business - League and the scientific knowledge shown by the professional forces at the National Medical Association's meeting at New York. "While in New York I had the pleasure of coming into contact with Mr. Frank H. Hitchcock, the very capable and resourceful Chairman of the Republican National Committee, and found him to be as affable and as genial as one could expect of a man with the great responsibility he has resting upon his shoulders. He knows men and what they can do and no time for chimerical schemes that will not stand the acid test. Yet he is tactful and behind a gracious smile there are evidences of an unusual strength of character, reserve force and natural executive ability. There seemed to be a commendable degree of harmony among the men associated with Mr. Hitchcock, and the headquarters were redolent with that sunshine and cheer which presage a victorious outcome of the campaign they are carrying on." "Did you sound public sentiment during your travels and learn how the Negro voters are feeling about the situation?" your correspondent asked. "Yes; I have talked with scores of our men in various walks of life, and I think I was able to sound sentiment with some assurance of accuracy. Wherever I made inquiries or noted conditions I was gratified to find a marked change of sentiment toward Mr. Taft. Many spoke of him in culeogistic terms, and confessed that they had been led into error concerning him by the clamor of hot-headed persons who had painted him in colors he did not deserve, both as to the Brownville affair and the suffrage. "I think this change of front is largely due to two things. First, the President's assumption of the entire responsibility of the Brownsville episode; and, secondly, our people are opening their eyes to the fact that the Democratic party, not contented with our elimination from politics as far as it is concerned, is now doing its utmost to get the Republican party to drop us. This latter plan would mean our exclusion-from participation in any and all politics and ultimately bar us from all means of protection and defence enjoyed by other American citizens, whether naturalized or unto the manor born." "What effect is the advent of Prof DuBois having upon the political equation?" "Dr. DuBois? He is a fellow-townman of mine, and the people have more respect for his scholarship than for his political wisdom. The trouble with DuBois is that he waited too long to make a beginning in politics. A man, commencing at his age is just as apt to begin wrong as right—offener the former than the latter. He started at the wrong end to serve the race with which he is identified. He is a learned man, and knows much that is in books; but he is a weakling in politics, for of that important and intricate science he knows absolutely nothing. He will be disgusted with himself and with the whole political business when he discovers what a small number of Negroes he is able to mislead and keep misted "There is no widespread result against the national ticket, as far as I can see. The Negro people can have no common cause with Bryan and his followers, for the possible success of the Democracy is necessarily based upon frauds against the ballot box, with the Negro race as the chief sufferer. A Democratic President would name enough Justices of the Supreme Court to give that party a majority of the court—and then we might see the end of Negro citizenship, for it might not be a difficult thing for this tribunal of last resort to decide, in a test case, that the War Amendments were improperly adopted. "We can trust Mr. Taft to do the right thing by us, and I hope every Negro in the sleatable States will cast his vote for the Republican ticket, as the safest way to preserve ourselves from Democratic misrule. There are many excellent Democrats in the South, but they are not the controlling factors, and the record of the party does not commend itself to the Negro's confidence, to put it mildly." "What were your impressions of the National Negro Business League's Baltimore meeting?" "Well," replied Col. Rucker, "I think the recent meeting was a huge success. That was the third one I have attended. I saw marked improvement in both the personnel and in the quality of the papers presented. They were both of a high order and representative of the spirit the race needs to give it standing THE NEW YORK AGE: THURSDAY, OCTOBER 8, 1966 among the world's foremost business men. In the nine years of the League's existence the business of the race has increased to a marvelous extent and it has more than justified the expectations of its promoters. "An increase of the number of banks from two in 1990 to forty in 1998, directly traceless to its influence, is a big father in the cup of the organization. And, I may add, in this connection, that any man who can unite and keep a body of first-class Negro men together, as Dr. Washington has done in the work of the National Negro Business League, deserves the plausibility of the entire American people. I was glad to notice the trend of good feeling toward Mr. Taft, which pervaded the meeting, although no formal expression was made by the organization as such. The League is not a political body and matters touching politics are discussed in private as individuals. As business men, anxious to maintain the high-tide of commercial prosperity, I found the members of the League to be overwhelmingly for Taft's election, and I believe he will come through with a safe margin in November." LA ROSE PAYS BIVIDEND Collapse of "Orphan" Copper Co.—Great Future for Mixed Copper Co. From the developments of the past week it appears that a more appropriate name could not have been devised for a certain widely-heralded, flamboyantly advertised copper company than that of "Orphan" Copper Company. The stock of that company made its appearance on the New York market several months ago. Since then it has been indifferently traded in, with prices ranging within narrow limits. But not until a certain Boston promoter took it up that behind it was seen the hand of rank manipulation. This manipulation was accompanied by great broadsides of advertisements in which were set forth in catchy phrases the great profits that would surely come Jo all who would "adopt" this "orphan." Oh, yes, this "orphan" would reach maturity in a few months, and out of gratitude for past favors he would return at least two dollars for every one dollar bestowed on him in his time of need. Was the "orphan" taken at his word? It appears so, for at least one of the faithful brought his tale of woe to the writer. It was a tale such as it often heard from the lips of those who put their money in "newspaper" stocks—a tale of bitter disappointment and loss. Through sheer manipulation the price of the stock of that Orphan Copper Company was marked up in about ten days from $4 to $25 per share. That is, it looked to the uninitiated as though it was selling at so high a figure. As soon as any quantity of stock was offered for sale the price of the stock tumbled from $8 to $1 per share. What the "orphan" will do in the future remains to be seen. He may yet do all that has been claimed for him, but at this writing it is hard to find anyone who will speak a good word for the "orphan." His lot seems to be a hard one, in that he is severely let alone to suffer all the "pangs and arrows of outrageous fortune." As was stated at the beginning of this series of articles, I wish them to guide the money of those who are disposed to invest into such channels as will prove profit. To that end I have given the history of various properties, each of which will stand the secrest kind of investigation. For instance, I set forth at great length the merits of the La Rose Mine and stated that its earnings warranted the payment of dividends. It is a source of satisfaction to inform the readers of THE ACR that the La Rose mine has just declared a dividend of 3 per cent, quarterly, payable. October 20, to stockholders of record October 2. As the United States Government is buying silver for subsidiary coinage at the rate of 125,000 ounces per week, or 65,000 ounces yearly, this new demand is almost certain to be reflected in higher prices than are now being paid for the white metal. The earnings of the La Rose mine, in common with other silver producers, will be favorably affected by any rise which may take place in the price of silver. La Rose is now selling around $500 a share, but it is expected to sell around $5 within the next six months. Let us now turn our attention to another property which has back it a strong group of financiers and which has all the carmarks of a great mine. The Miami Copper Company is the corporate name of the property, with a capital stock of $3,000,000, divided into 600,000 shares of $5 each. The property is located in the Globe district, Arizona. The eminent mining engineer, I. Park Channing, estimates that the Miami Copper Company has in sight 6,000,000 tons of 3 per cent copper ore. On a 13 cent copper market this ore will yield a net profit of $14,000,000, or nearly five times its entire capitalization. If this be true the outstanding stock of the company is worth close on to $25 per share. The present price of the shares is around $10, but in my opinion the price is a little high for the actual work which has been accomplished. The price was marked up from $5 to $12.75 for the purpose of enabling the company to market 100,000 shares at $10 per share. Now that these shares have been successfully marketed, I believe that by waiting a while the public will be able to get in around $8 a share. If Miami Copper should happen to touch that figure, in my opinion, the stock can be bought for big profits on a long pull. And in this company let me emphasize the point that in investing one must not only take paints to get in a good proposition, but to get in it at the right price. The Calimet and Hecla has made big money for those who bought its stock from $10 up to $400 per share, but what about the fellow who paid $1,000 per share for it? Standard Oil has proved a bonanza for those who bought it from $100 up to $300 per share, but what about those who paid $700 a share for it? Miami Copper Company is undoubtedly a great property, but do not pay too much for it. Wait. You may be able to get it cheaper than the price at which it is now selling, $10 per share. ROBERT W.

To-day the colored men of the country, starting with freedom and nothing else have property valued at $900,000,000. Who made these wonderful achievement possible? The Republican party. "There isn't a single thing he's ever done for the Negro and he's never said that he'd do a thing for us. He doesn't dare to, for his support comes from those Southern States where Jim Crow legislation has been past. On the other hand, that splendid man, William H. Taft, comes out boldly and states that he's opposed to the 'grandfather clause' and that if elected he'll see that every citizen, irrespective of race, creed or color, will, if possible, be secured in the rights to which the Constitution of the United States entitles him. He represents all that is noblest and purest and best in American institutions. There is really no comparison between the men. On the one hand there is the man of executive ability, the trained man, against the dreamer. On the other hand the man ready for the emergency, who possesses a magic wand, waving it here, there and ponder, making troubles disappear, and on the other the man who would do more to harm the prosperity of the country than any mar in a century, a man with a crazy quilt of notions.
