VOL. XXII. No. 27. RACES WILL INTERMINGLE Which Will Finally Reduce All Races on Globe to One BISHOP HAMILTON lives His Views on the Negro Question Before Large Body of Young White Deacons Believes it Would be a Piece of Imperitinence For Any Person to Enter an Objection Special to THE NEW YORK AOR BALTIMORE Md. April 6—Bishop John W Hamilton, who presided at the Baltimore Annual Conference of the L.E. Church, held here last week, imposed on white ministers, last Friday discussed the Negro question before a body of young men about to be selected deacons and created considerable comment because of some views expressed particularly with reference to Negroes and whites eating together and the ultimate intermingling of races. During his address Bishop Hamill said, "I do not advocate sociality. That is a matter which will be care of itself. But if a white man chooses to eat with Negroes in his house or in company, it is his own business, and it would be a piece of grossest impertinence for any one object. I myself, once dined with a Negro, doctor of divinity, who was my guest a hotel. An impudent young man angered up behind the table and inured of the waiter what that "nigris was doing there. I sprang to my told him who I was, and inquired he wished to speak with me, but he away like a shot to the other side the room. I know a Chinese preacher in San Diego who had a wife. She is asking that a preacher's wife should their married life leaves nothing untrained. Things like this relate to the solidarity of the race. However, we have nothing to do with these matters—with the equality of races and intermarriage. It is too tough to interfere with an man's marital affairs. But we are to do with one man getting the that he is so much better than his man." Bishop Hamilton was born in West Virginia in 1845. He is a courageous man, as well as an independent thinker taking latter to the Women's Military Society, he said in part "Theople of the war classes mix and angle. It cannot be prevented nor the habits of the various aristocratic classes. The will result in the terming of all the human races, which will reduce the number of races the globe to one. The only hope this complemented race is the march of God. We must fit the members of all these alien races for membership in the big family."

It is intended to furnish teachers with the industrial idea Lincoln Institute will most likely be located near Louisville on a farm of 1,000 acres. The members of the local executive committee have succeeded in raising $34,000 of the $50,000 which they are to secure, and will be able when raised to get $350,000 pledged by Andrew Carnegie and others. This will enable the school to begin work with $400,000, part of which will be used as a permanent endowment and a part for a site, buildings and other equipment LIBERIAN GOVERNMENT Honors Bishop Scott and Minister Lyon Prominent, Men, Attend Rescue: Prominent Men Attend Reception MONROVIA, LIBERIA, March 20 - Dr. Ernest Lyon, the American Minister at Monrovia, gave a reception in honor of Bishop I. B. Scott, of the Methodist Episcopal Church. Wednesday evening, February 17, on which occasion he was knighted by the Liberian Government. This was a brilliant affair and the first that has taken place at the Legation since the death of Dr. Lyon's wife. The Legation was beautifully decorated with palms, flowers and flags. The reception was given at an opportune time for the gathering of men of prominence in Liberia. A very tasty lunchoon was served after which President Arthur Barclay arose and said that he, with the consent of his cabinet, was pleased to confer upon the Bishop the Order of African Redemption. President Barclay is not an orator in the sense of the word but he is an uncommonly pleasing speaker, and, nevertheless, forceful. Among other things, he said that the history of the Church in Liberia was inextricably woven with that of the state, in fact that the Republic was conceived in the spirit of Christianity, that the church was the forerunner of the State that the church had been the most important factor in the development of the state, had trained and fitted men who have filled and are filling most important positions in the government. Bishop Scott made an appropriate response, in which he said that there was no one to make any objection to his receiving such a mark of respect, except perhaps his wife and he felt certain that she would be equally as proud of this honor as he The surprise of the evening came when the President announced that he had another duty to perform another man to knight. When he discussed the fact that he and his cabinet had conferred the same Order upon Dr. Loren Lyon, no one present was more surprised than the minister himself knowing the restrictions the Congress of the United States imposes upon its ministers, ambassadors and other similar bodies in receiving such honors and titles. The President acknowledged the great help the American Minister had rendered the Republic of Liberia and the fact that he had ingrafted himself into the affection of the Liberians as a whole, and therefore he saw no bitter way to express the gratitude of the government than he conferring upon him the Order of African Redemption. Dr. Lyon thanked the president and I am not for this honor. He said however that he would first have to secure the consent of his government to accept the preffered honor of which no man would be proud than he when it should be obtained.

WASHINGTON, D. C., April 11—A delegation of Negroes from Mississippi, headed by Charles Banks, G. Mound Bayou, comprising bankers, business men, lawyers and educators called at the White House last week to tender to President Taft whatever assistance they could render in helping him to work out the policies outlined by him in his inaugural address. The visit had to do solely with the so-called Negro problem in the South. In his address to the President, the chairman of the delegation said: "Like you, we do not believe that any satisfactory and lasting results can be reached without the co-operation of the representatives of the more than ten million Negroes who are the bone of contention, like you, we don't believe that any satisfactory and lasting result can be obtained without the approval and co-operation of the dominant class, the whites, in our section, and any policy that makes for peace between us, that means to bring us more closely together, so far as the public good is concerned, and the general uplift of our section, and in that uplift the uplift of the nation as well, is much desired by us, and our presence here is to assure you that the Negroes of Mississippi will do their part in bringing about the desired ends, and hope not to so conduct ourselves at any time as to embarrass your well begun administration." Negro Republicans Resist, Flight. OYSTER BAY, N. Y., April 1.—The cal organization, composed of integrates cal organization, composed of integrates from every section of Nassau County held a convention in Westbury. The object of the convention is to protect and uplift the Negro, as well as to contend for his civil and political rights. Ebenezer Williams, of Westbury, was elected leader of the league. The Negro leaders of Nassau County are indignant over the discrimination made by the Republican party of Nassau County in fusing to let Negroes go to Washington as a part of the Nassau County delegation to enjoy the opportunity not President Taft. They expect to hold somebody accountable. WALTER L. COHEN TO BE APPOINTED Reglster of Land Offlce at New Orleans, Louisiana REPORTS ARE REFUTED Relative to President Taft's Policy in the South—Negroes Will be Given Appointments Special to THE NEW York Age WASHINGTON, D.C. April 3.—Since William H Taft was inaugurated President many white politicians of the South have been spreading the news that the new regime at the White House meant the political death of the Negro in the South. Even the Southern press has become imbued with such an idea, as have several Negro newspapers hostile to the administration, and who are seeking to impress the Negroes of the United States with the WALTER L. COHEN idea that President Taft is opposed to appointing Negroes to office in the South. A severe shock is in store for many when announcement is made that Walter L. Cohen, the Negro leader of Louisiana, has been appointed Registrar of the Land Office in New Orleans, La. While the appointment has not been made it is well known in official circles at Washington, that Mr. Cohen will be reappointed to the position he has so efficiently filled for two terms. It is reported that President Taft voluntarily assured Mr. Cohen that he AGE. would be reappointed for a third term as Register of the Land Office in New Orleans, and that the latter signified his intentions of accepting the position. The appointment was tendered the Louisiana while here a few days ago in conference with the President and Postmaster-General Hitchcock. Together with Mr Kuntz, white, also prominent in the "Black and Tan" organization of the Republican organization of Louisiana, a plea was made for recognition of that faction in the councils of the party during the Taft administration. It is evident that the two Louisiana leaders were assured by the President that the "Black and Tans" would be taken care of Mr. Cohan's tenure in office has been acceptable to white and black, Republicans and Democrats FOURTEENTH AMENDMENT. To Be Discussed by Senator Money As to Its Validity. WASHINGTON, D C., April 6-While there is little probability of the adoption by Congress of Senator Money's joint resolution directing the Supreme Court of the United States to investigate the validity of the method of amending the fourteenth amendment to the Constitution, it is understood that Mr Money will make the measure the subject of a speech in the Senate The resolution is intended to counteract in public opinion the bills introduced to limit the congressional representation from the South. Mr Money, in his preamble, asserts that the journals of the Senate and the House of the Thirty-ninth and Fortieth Congresses show there was neither a two-thirds vote of the two houses for adoption nor three fourths vote of the States in ratification of the congressional acton, as required by the Constitution. This defect, if such it proves to be, was due to the fact that the Southern States were not, on account of the war at that time, acting as a part of the union If the question should go to the court for its adjudication the status of the seceding States would make an interesting point for decision. NATIONAL BENEFIT ASSOCIATION Teills of Its Big Success in the Insurance Business. WASHINGTON, D. C., April 6.—The officers of the National Benefit Association have issued the following statement relative to the success of the association: To reveal the records, conditions and prospects of the National Benefit Association is to relate a story replete with human and material interest; one calculated to inspire and stir the soul to higher ideals and greater endeavors. It stands conspicuous, not as a lure, but as an illumination over-shadowing the Negro suppressionists and decriers. It is a living testimonial to the fact that we have discarded as a solution of the race problem the fluent speeches which flow as freely as water. The new prescription now on trial is a mixture of brain, character and energy. After a careful analysis it is found that the present results in comparison with the former are as a mountain to a mole hill. The National Benefit Association was chartered as a stock insurance company by an Act of Congress November 15, 1898, subject to all the Federal statutes pertaining thereto. With confidence within themselves and their work the general officers essayed the sea of take finance. After an aggressive effort the then capital stock of $2,000,00 was all sold and the enterprise was then prepared to receive applications for membership. It was now fairly unmanned. Being new, the receipts for the first year were not over $3,375,25 With advancing age the membership and receipts gained in magnitude, the work was extended to another field. Its officers sought to encourage all Negro business enterprises and in keeping with this policy deposited a portion of its funds in the now defunct Capital Savings Bank, the landlord of the building in which the project first saw the dawn of day. But this bank was all fated, and shortly failed with a large sum of the association's money on deposit. This was a heavy blow in more ways than one. The organization rallied sufficiently, however, to change its title as a tenant of one room on the top floor to landlord of the whole building outright. To those who have been fortunate enough to visit the Capital as well as the building of the National Association it is no news that it is located on the Wall street of Washington—at 609 F street. N W. Seeking to live up to the name and purpose of the National Benefit Association—the officers continued to enlarge its scope of operation till it now covers seven States making sworn annual statements to the Insurance Department of each State. In some States the Insurance Commissioners have congratulated them as being the first Negro Company to comply with the laws of their department. They'll out and submit the same balance sheet for the department as the larger white companies do. This report is provided by the Commissioner along with the several companies operating in the State, into a printed book which is submitted to the several State legislatures and is termed the Commissioner's report. Little escapes the attention of the eagle eve Commissioner. Unless the business has been conducted legitimately it is not possible to obtain his license to continue the operations in his State for another year. Being blessed with officers of integrity from the very in capency of the organization down to its present growth—it has passed the most drastic examination by the several States without a blemish. Having no disinclination to assume hurdens, the officers of the National Benefit Association have pushed the work with vim and vigor—might and (Continued on Page 8) Has Largest Circulation PRICE, 5 CENTS M STREET HIGH SCHOOL Has Many Factions, According to The Age Correspondent DISCORD EXISTS Among the Teachers and Many Say That the Discipline of School Is Not of the Best Said to be the Pride of Washington, D. C. Well Known For Its Discipline which is of High Order. WASHINGTON, D C., April 6. The Negro parents of Washington are fortunate in having a man like Capt. James F Oyster as President of the School Board. He is a man of such rugged honesty, so eminently fair, and so considerate of the public schools that were there no Negro representative on the board the Negro schools, pupils and parents, would get a square deal from him. There are no frills or fads about Capt Oyster. The one time that I met him convinced me that he is, in the vernacular of the street gamin around New York, "des simply de goods." Capt. Oyster knows well the needs of the Negro schools, he knows as well as anybody that there is need of a weeding out to bring them up to the required standard. He, perhaps has never said so. He is a rather uncommunicative man--thinks heap but talks little. I opine that he is a man that always packs his goods before shipping. Always plays safe. I said in my last article that in this I would specialize, that is take up the various buildings, and enumerate the defects and the advantages in each. I do not mean to besmirch any one, for, as stated in the outset, this criticism of the Washington Negro schools is far beyond the mud-flinging and asperSION-casting plane. When I say that there are number of incompetent teachers connected with schools, I state what could easily be proven if an examination was held tomorrow Ten per cent of them would fail on the simplest task The Armstrong Manual Training School is, perhaps, the pride of Washington. The discipline there is well inghed perfect. I do not think the head of that school is considered the most erudite principal connected with the Washington Negro schools but everyone with whom I talked agreed that he was a splendid disciplinarian. Some think he is a little too strict—sort of an autocrat. But it must be borne in mind that a manual training school has an attendance, as a rule, that does not practice the niceties by the young men and women who juggle the mumified Latin and Greek languages in the M Street High School. They are a little more rugged class. This fact suggests stricter discipline. With one or two possible changes in the staff of teachers. Armstrong Manual Training School would be a model Can, and will the changes be made? Echo answers inaudibly When you speak of the M Street High School, it's a horse of another color. At least that is what I was led to believe in my talks with Washingtonians. It is rumored, and not subrosa either, that in this particular school is where discipline is a lost art. It is also rumored—aye, in fact they shout it from the house-tops figuratively speaking that here faction is spelled with a capital F, and italicized too. Just who is to blame for the alleged lack of discipline, and the alleged lack of entente cordiale among the teachers I will not state in this article, for the reason that there are some points I must yet clear up, which I propose to do before finishing this investigation. There are so many rumors that it is a difficult matter to get at the bottom. However if there is a lack of discipline in this school, and if there is discord between principal and teachers, or among the teachers, the school authorities should, for the good of the pupils, ascertain it and speedily make amends. I recall, some years ago when I was a teacher in a certain high school, there was a factional feeling and a jealousy among the teachers that grew to such proportions that the Board of Education had to "step in and take the bull by the horns," with the result that several professors were put on the "unemployed" list, and I, although absolutely innocent had to take the count too. However I eventually got back. control pupil, future was a matter of greater concern than the few teachers. When teachers are at "cross purposes" it is only a matter of a short time when the pupils will become inoculated with the virus of faction and the germs of jealously. It is on tapis but breathe it gently to patrits and martyrts that this school is of deep concern to the school authorities. In referring to lack of discipline petty bickering among teachers and jealousy. I want to remind principals and teachers that you can't fool all the people all the time. A failure to seize a bad situation and an inaction that permits matters to drift along in the hope that things will right themselves is like saving at the apogee and letting it run out at the bung Re ee ee nee = eee aE Pata ares rrne a = a TIT nvr Troma TS apae Sa a ae aaa tee pee Fare “7 HENDERSON TO ~ eters ress aes BSt-MORRIS AVENUE Ska PID Oe apes ON GAME: > “HUB” VOTERS |S Serer of seeing, fo gor ity wo LEY RB geen lene Boeros, Mass, April 6—Dr. T.

THE SOUTH'S DECLINE. Senator Elkins of West Virginia, speaking on the Payne tariff bill last week, hurled his phillipic against the North, and especially New England, for its domination and ignoring of the South and her interests. He merely accused the North, he gave no explanation of the decline of Southern power in the nation Twas but a day later that Senator Money of Mississippi answered his accusation. Lake too many Negroes even now, this Southern Ephraim attached to his idols, began the chasing of another phantom of the dead past. The Southern spokesman introduced a point resolution directing the Supreme Court to investigate the viability of the method of amending the fourthenth amendment to the Constitution. The resolution is one of those minutes and regulatory recurring Southern measures. It will probably be shelved but it is atracting considerable attention and Senator Money will surely make it the subject of a Senate speech. The reasons for this revival of a forgotten question are threefold. The South has not yet learned to be practical and present-minded. The agitation is intended to stay if not impair the popularity of the President in the South. It will counteract the influence of the bills in Congress for the reduction of Southern representation. But these also are the reasons why the South's power has declined since the days of Calhoon and Clay. The South has frittered away its time, consumed its energy, dwarfed its mind with the consideration of the single issue, the position of the Negro. For a very similar reason the potential energy of the black race has not become a positive power. By such agitation largely, Negro statesmanship has been made to revolve around the settled issues of the Constitution. The fourteenth and fifteenth amendments are in the Constitution to stay. Let the Negro thinmiss all contrary thoughts from his mind. Let him now work out his salvation under that equal law If the South could only stop bewailing in madness the alleged wrongs done her in the past, but grasp great opportunities at her very door, if she could only stop deploring her bad conditions and, accepting changed conditions, use that energy in improving them, if the South could but turn her face toward the sunrise of her future greatness and from the sunset of her faded glory during slavery, the South's power in this nation would increase. So long as the North uses its brain and the South uses only its feelings, a backward Southland will be ruled --- GEORGIA'S CONVICT SLAVERY. Until the first day of this month the State of Georgia actually sold her convicts—a large majority of whom by reason of Georgia justice were Negroes—into slavery Sixteen hundred human beings sold to the highest bidder were found on that day in Georgia's dismal and dangerous coal mines, her consumption-breeding brick kilns, in the dark and deadly atmosphere of her furnaces Their owners, who had purchased their labor for the period of imprisonment, had driven them by the lash through a miserable fate no less horrible than plantation slavery. On April 1, the State of Georgia abolished its traffic in white as well as black slaves, and transferred them to the counties of their crimes, there to work in the open air upon the public works Georgia heretofore has had no penitentiary, and contrary to the recent agitation, the black and white prisoners will be confined in the same place, but with separate barracks For these reasons, there is general rejoicing throughout Georgia. The State has quit its slave trade and has effected a crying reform in the health of its convicts Graft and private greed and merely a rejoice that been deprived of their greatest source and the State will be benefited and beautified with better public roads. The prisoners rejoice, because of their happier lot. Pathetic indeed is the picture which the report from Atlanta portrays "Though shackled and ironed, the convicts greeted the change with shouts of joy and weird hymns of thanksgiving Negro preachers were at most of the stockades and led the blacks in their impromptu praise service." Only such glimpses of Southern life as these reveal the depths of the South's degradation. Only thus are led the black clouds of impress and cruel oppression when she will plops along. Few can appreciate how gracious is this reform to Georgia's Negroes, whose first offenders and those who have only offended against "white supremacy" have been huddled together with hardened criminals into a bondage truly infernal. But Georgia, setting a splendid example to her sister States, has taken a long step forward. Slowly but surely the South is emerging from the mists of slavery into the sunlight of civilization. THE FIGHT AT FLORENCE An interesting situation has developed around the light for the postmastership at Florence, S. C., at present held by the Negro postmaster, Joshua Wilson. The reappointment of Mr Wilson by President Roosevelt was not confirmed by the Senate and it has been stated that President Taft would appoint a white man for the post One of the three presidential post-master appointments held by Negroes and carrying a $2,100 annual salary, there has been a lively scramble among white applicants for the place. The preferred candidate for the place it appears is a Northern resident in Florence. Upon this phase of the tight centers a sharp controversy between the States' elements as led by the Charleston News and Counter on the one side the Columbia State on the other. The State the medium of the best Southern opinion and editorially last week. But hearing there was a likelihood of the President appointing a Presidential temporary course, to the postmastership, Mr. Hill called upon Mr. Latt and protested. And Congressman Heller is right. An honest respectable and copie Negro of the vantage would be less objectionable than a white Republican who would recall the trying period on Carpet Bag rule." For this that desirable organ of Southern bourbonism the Charleston News and Counter reproaches the State replacing "The only safe rule by which we can live and work is that the best Negro is a worse man in public office than the most unworthy white man can be" "A white skin is the primary qualification for holding office in the Southern States" In behalf of the Negro race we would like to say that one safe rule for the administration to follow will be to ignore absolutely the absurdly prejudiced Southern element, whose sentiment is voiced by the Courier. The only safe rule, as Mr Taft has declared, will be to consider each case on its merits. Under all the circumstances, unless there are reasons at present unknown to the public, we believe that Mr. Wilson's record and popularity as indicated by the Columbia State entitle him to reappointment. THE ROAD TO BETTER THINGS. Among the splendid things done by and for the great Negro population of this great city, you stand out more worthily than the evening industrial schools conducted by Principals William H Buckely and John I Thorne in Manhattan and Brooklyn respectively. None are so promising in their attack upon the untoward industrial conditions of New York Negroes home are so practical in the actual uplift as accomplished At the school on forty sixth street whose closing exercises and exhibitions were held last Thursday night the largest part of the 3000 students have been Negroes Their displays of the dressmaking, millinery and embroidery arts for women and of the handicrafts for men, including architecture electric construction and jammer engineering were splendid, not to say artistic The same pleasing results of the year's work were on exhibition Wednesday night at the Brooklyn school on Bridge street, three-fifths of whose 400 students have been Negroes No truer index of the progressive and ambitious spirit of New York Negroes, could be found than the patient and sacrificing effort which these night students have made to gain a better training. The women, for the most part are working girls, who at the end of a day's drudge, have gone to school to learn to read or to sew. The men in a large degree, are service boys from the Tenderloin hotels who have thus utilized their off duty hours. Three of the women who have learned to read and write in the Manhattan school were past sixty years of age and one young Negro, who was a bell boy last week, sold his design for a cottage to a New Jersey contractor. This splendid opportunity furnished free by the New York public schools is being grasped by Negroes to an extent that is highly pleasing. It is to be men and women whose early training has been neglected will attend. Slowly and quietly, the evening schools with their able and devoted teachers are leading our race in this city along the road to better things --- President Taft has not only broken the spell of the Negro's long wait but strangely enough by the same stroke has produced just the opposite effect upon the over-reliant South of shocked suspense, by honoring Walter L. Cohen with the leadership of the Republican party in Louisiana. We advise the South to now remember that shocks usually come in series. THE LAWRENCE IN LOUISVILLE Reassuring indeed comes the news from Washington that the Hon. Walter L. Cohen, Register of Lands at New Orleans, La., will be reappointed to the third term in that office. It is also announced that as the result of his conference, together with Mr. Kuntz, the white State leader, with President Taft, that Messra. Cohen and Kuntz will reorganize the political party in the Pelican State. The register position is one of the most responsible as well as lucrative posts in the State and it is to the high honor of Mr. Cohen and his race that he has ably and acceptably filled it. The political honor and power of reorganizing the party Mr. Cohen richly deserves. The Louisiana leader, stalwart and aggressive, above reproach in political ideals, is a politician of no mean order. Prominent in the "Black and Tan" delegation that went to the Chicago convention last June, the credit is largely due the Negro register that his delegation prevailed over the Lily-white and went solid for Mr Taft. New politicians in Louisiana are more personally popular, and none could be more safely entrusted with the party's reorganization. But the announcement that the President voluntarily assured Mr. Cohen of his reappointment is especially welcome to the waiting Negro race. It gives a line on the administration's policy as nothing else has done. It is evident that he neither intends to ignore nor help to eliminate the Negro. It is plain that he intends to encourage that first class of whites who are not opposed to the Constitution who believe in Near-ceremonial. Not in a hundred years could Eaft or anybody else play the distinctive post whites of the South or their leaders into a reifiable Republican party. If each there is to be, it must have the thinning progressive and commercial whites for the apex and the large and constant Republican Negro voters for the base of the paramet. Than this the honoring of Register token indicates that nothing is more plain to President Laft. NEGRO MEDICAL JOURNAL The Negro National Medical Association has taken a long step forward by beginning the publication of a quarterly called the Journal of the National Medical Association. This publication has as its editors Dr C V Roman, Nashville, Fenn, Editor in Chief, Dr J A Kenney, Tuskegee Institute, Ala., Associate Editor, Dr W G Alexander, Orange, N J Business Manager, Dr W S Lofton Washington, D C, Dental Editor, Dr Amanda V Gray, Washington, D C, Pharmaceutical Editor. It is issued at Tuskegee Institute, Alabama. It contains much creditable matter. In its typographical make up the magazine is creditable. It is dignified in appearance as well as conservative. The papers and articles are of a high order of merit. We congratulate the National Medical Association. We hope that this quarterly will have a large list of subscribers, as it should have. It means much in the direction of progress when such a publication can be issued by members of our race. EDITORIAL AFTERTHOUGHTS Old Senator Money trying to revive in Congress that ghost of an issue about the validity of the fourteenth amendment shows but the mothid desire of a passing statesman to prick the old sore to see it bleed. We would even like to say that his type die a hard death, but magy of the new school are sons of their fathers The discredited Boston editor of the yellow "mudsnow" at every opportunity, still seeking to besmurch his fellow collegian. Hon W H Lewis has caused many people to ask if his mama does not run in that direction. However benevolent the editor's intentions, Mr Lewis realizes that this is one of his best assets The spendid hall and business property which the combined Masonic lodges of St Louis have bought for a Masonic temple is a timely and splendid move which the Negro Masons of New York could and should duplicate. No offence, but the Masons of St Louis are following the lead of New Orleans Pythians in initiating their members into co operative finance as well as mystic rates --- The Atlanta Independent, a Negro paper published in the Georgia city we must inform our readers, essays to attack Tue Ace and compare the two publications, in one course of a column of cheap billingsgate Now, Brother Davis, impossible comparisons as in your case are always boomerangs Remember the man who instantly takes up what he says are unjustifiable reflections, has never been reflected upon In Louisville, where the National Negro Business League meets in August, the Negroes are faring unusually well under their Republican mayor, Grimstead who has dispensed more than 100 places to them in the various city departments. In place of the dark gloom under the Democratic regime, when the Negro didn't even get the have been there / now grin instead. Quincy Ewing of Louisiana has bared his breast to the poisoned darts of the South in exposing in the Atlantic Monthly "The Heart of the Race Problem." His diagnosis is right, the trou- bility in primarity with the South's heart, and not so much with her head. Long live the education of the head, the hand and the heart! Mr J. Alex.

There are two places where a Negro can get equal treatment, a fair show, and no kick coming. One is the saloon and the other the prize ring. A Negro is now champion boxer of the world, and the white aspirants are eager for a try.

Washington and party through the South is being protested against by some, and for the life of us we can not see any just ground for complaint. His speeches to his race are teaming with good advice. If there are problems in the country to teach the Negro race their proper duty as citizens there would be less crime and a more friendly attitude toward the white man. One of the grounds for protest against Washington's visit to this State is that he praises the black people in the rides in Pullman careds his children to white colleges is entertained by white people at the North. We have also totally nothing to do with that. Besides some people see ht to accept him as a social equal, the honor is all that, for him to honor such a man when he condemns to step upon the same social plane with them but do not let us put obstacles in the way of one doing good. We are fully able to take care of our social affairs and there is no danger of a man Washington attempting to break down the social barrier Manning times. gentle Ridicule for Filter In this connection President Eliot, who can certainly not be accused of an arrogant belief in our national superiority has exposed himself to much gentle ridicule by expressing his belief that even Germans and Americans, and French and Americans, should not intermarry. To this the complete answer is that love between them should be obligatory at locksmiths. The endless number of happy marriage between Americans and Germans, French, Italian and Spanish has resulted in no intermarriage of stock and will enrich the type by the happy admixture of qualities. Furthermore, these intermarriages make much for the understanding between nations. How important these intermarriages appear at a glance. It is similarly impossible to prevent intermarriage with the Japanese or any other race. Natural selection in these matters is the safest and truest guide. When the law for bidding the mixed marriages of blacks and whites was repeated in Massachusetts in the early 19th century, ago, he pressed much help toward much dread for the future of the Anglo-Saxon race. But time shows that, with a steadily increasing Negro population in Massachusetts, the number of intermarriages is ridiculously small, while in the South, where such marriages are a penitentiary of fense, they flourish—but under the name concubinage—New York Evening Post. messaging, member braining, should hold her Child with a caress WHAT THE NEGRO PRESS HAS TO SAY It was a wise man who said: "Strive for right in the singular, not rights in the plural.

Our Methodist children can know their history in how to handle and bind to churches. They have no organization among the pastor—known as members thereof—who are submissively pledged to plant a church wherever they can, and each contributes to a fund to aid in that work. What a splendid example of moral loyalty? How we wish our pastors possess—the same spirit? We are the true sentiment, but poor in practice. The Baptist Sentiment. There are some crimes for which death is the only proper and adequate punishment. Kidnapping is one of these crimes. Such criminals have placed themselves behind the door, and there need be no violence, no mobs, no rots, no lynchings are necessary. Simply let the law with a firmness that allows no delay and a force that is irreversible subtract the kidnappers' life from the sum of human existence. Society will be the victim of the punishment cure. The officers of the law will have done their duty—The Buxton Gazette One of the largest churches in the State of Massachusetts has issued an order that all women refusing to remove their hats before entering the church auditorium be turned from the worship. The contention of the trustees is that the fancy milieu of the church should not much attention that women spend more time looking at hats than they do listening to the sermon. This rule would be profitable if it obtained in all of the congregations of the South as well as those of the North. The Austin Watchman It is indeed amusing to hear some of the supposed leading men of the Negro race, speaking of the difficulty which seems to surround the Negro race. And yet, knowing all this difficulty these same Negro leaders have refused to patronize Negro business men. We have a Negro grocery store in this city two drug stores, and training office with nearly 15. Negro people are painful to know how little these people contribute to the success of these business houses.

In order that we may attain the position where the people will regard us with some appreciable degree of confidence as an accurate index of public opinion, we must appropriately exercise our functions as a narrator or advocate or both. The very absence in Liberia of such forceful opinion-making organs as associations, public speakers and meetings, leaves the former editor vested with an enormous power and authority, and only way to administer justly, forcefully and generously the editorship, is to be thoroughly animated with a lofty sense of patriotism - The Liberian Register Perhaps of all the States below the Mason and Dixon line, Virginia has the clearest record in as far as lynchings and burnings at stakes and other inhuman brutal outrages are concerned, for geometrically justice in that State gets its the course through the proper channels. To avoid this blot upon its character when such crimes which from their nature involve the law into their own hands, Virginia has less severe forfeitive punishments through speed courts of justice. So regulated as to meet the emergences of those crimes which cause the block to cry out for swift punishment it would be a whole bit more important to the other States affected with an unjustified barbarism appetite for resulting punishment than if they would follow Virginia's example. The Portland (Ore.) Advocate We would like to remind our neighbor that the bill as it was finally passed, giving the soldiers a chance of restoration to the army, was not the Foraker bill championed and advocated by the Guardian. Unless the soldiers should forget who their real friends are it might be remembered that the bill was drawn along lines suggested by Ex President Roosevelt who was signed, supported and approved by the Joint Action Force leaving the executive office. This proves conclusively what we have all along claimed, the friendship and desire of Ex President Roosevelt to deal fairly with our people and to give the soldiers security in spite of the Guardians and the nation's policy of seneless agitation, vilification and abuse.

It is to the predominance of communication in his intellectual makeup and to his practical comprehensive understanding of notwithstanding that Booker T. Washington owes his wonderful success as an educator and his fame as a leader of the Negro race. He won this leadership and fame not as an author and theorist, but as a worker and door of things that other would be leaders of the Negroes rejected as beneath their notice and unworthy of their time and talent. He had the genius to discover the ways in which to call it what you may to use and to know, and the courage to preside in his faith, that the stone that the older builders rejected was worthy to be made the choice of the temple dedicated to the chapel of the mission of the Negro problem. And he discovered that honesty and well-directed effort are the essentials to success and advancement, racial as well as individual, but he applied this well-known economic principle to the solution of the Negro problem. And the principle, despite discouragement and active opposition of many of those whom he sought to benefit, and the success that has crowned his efforts, we find that Booker T. Washington's genius. That is far from stands out above all the others. As a public speaker, Bocker T.

His speech was a strong speech, and full of wisdom and good advice, and so accompanied with humor that it appealed to all who heard him. The speech was a good speech, and it was so well conceived to come back to the audience, and to emphasize it so that it will not be forgotten the speech while it was an excellent one, was made worth while only by the fact that back of it stood the personality of the man who has made his place in the world as a leader of nine million people by a lifetime of well directed guidance, by a lifetime of guide their feet in the path of industry, honesty, morality and clean hunt - Sumner Daily Trust. Another Negro Buried in Texas Another Negro Buried in Texas And so in Texas they have buried another Negro. The press despatches tell us that one thousand savages stood by and watched while the flames swept over the hopeless, depraved but brave wretch who gave up his life to make a Texan holiday. It is wonderful to think of strange, almost impossible to believe. This is Texas this the twentieth century and this was an assemblage of persons immensely flattered by being described as "crazy red." And they burned at the stake a human being. One thousand persons presumably with an admixture of women and children stood by watched the horror, gorged their savage instincts, sated their barbarous hates, fainted and regaled upon the sort of spectacle that pleased and edified the wild and untamed Indian. How discouraging it is! How hopeless it is to think that we live in the same country with such people to think God forbid that we may even have such people about us. And yet as to look with horror upon such foreign "soum" as the Russians the Turks and to deplore the pillage and disorder that sometimes mark the affair of their countries. We should hang our heads in shame. We have heard of no Russians burning a man to death at the stake. We have heard of no turbulent Turks straying far from the dictates of mercy and humanity as to do such a deed. Texas Texas! Is no one to be punished for this crime against civilization and humanity?

A most marvelous record. The National Benefit Association earned and paid six per cent on the dollar as a dividend to every shareholder for the first seven consecutive years. The next year it paid them ten per cent and last year the board cut a median of 12 per cent. Its next progressive step is to collage the scope of its business. With this idea in view, the National Benefit Syndicate Committee has been formed, capitalized at $100,000.00, and divided into 10,000 shares at $12,000 per share, par value $10,000. From the statements given above, it is apparent that the association is not pressed for funds to carry on the work if it has an idea of staying in its present territory five or ten years hence. But forethought teaches them that if they are to successfully struggle with their white competitors, if they do not intend to be selfish by making this a closed corporation, that if they desire to issue industrial endowment and whole life insurance for any size policy (at reasonable rates and without discrimination), it may be able to operate in whatever climate one of the members of the race may perchance team then they must carry out the grand and lofty idea already concerned of keeping the foremost Negro insurance company in the world owned and controlled by our people, for our purposes. In this class of form of insurance and they will maintain the sick and accident kind and to be admitted to all the States at the moment it is requisite to have a paid up capital of at least $100,000,000. It is an open secret that over $100,000,000 of it has already been subscribed. The whole sum when raised will be converted into bonds and deposited in some State as a security and protection to policy holders the world over. As yet the others feel that they have reaped but a title of the rivals of possibilities in the business. Fortune will be the day when the National Benefit Association - reorganized, befor- fth giving employment to thousands of our educated young men and women as solicitors, collectors, superintendents, inspectors, bookkeepers, stenographers and showing the benefits of insurance upon untold millions of dependents.

Old India 435-437 Poe Mills Music and the Stage ```markdown ``` PETER A. WALTON IS RAGTIME DEAD? ONLY a few days ago in discussions what is commonly known as ragtime" music. John Philip Sousa gave out the following statement "Ragtime had the dyspepsia or gout long before it died. It was overfed by poor nurses. Good ragtime came, and half a million mutter-spring up. Then, as a result the people were sickened with the stuff. I have not played a single piece of ragtime this season because the people do not want it". Since the announcement by the noted bandmaster that ragtime is a thing of the past, musicians and critics have become involved in a controversy as to the correctness of Sousa's stand. As syncopated music is credited with being of purely Nexro origin the dramatic editor of The Age recently wrote to some of the young and successful colored composers, asking them what they thought of Sousa's utterances on the subject. From the large number of answers received the writer is publishing the following and it will be noted that one colored composer charges that Sousa recently played a piece of 'ragtime' in Boston despite his assertion that he had not been guilty of playing such music all season. (By James Reese Europe.) (Musical Director of Red Moon (v. 1) "John Philip Sousa recently gave our in an interview that 'ragtime' music in dead, and that the public has been in It my opinion there" was any such album of 'ragtime' - 'Ragtime' is merely auklukum or rather a fun name given to Negro rhythm by our Caucasian brother musicians many years ago. The phrase 'ragtime' is dying. Why? Because in these days of theme famine, so many eminent Anglo-musicians have become inculcated with that serum - Negro rhythm (ragtime), and with their knowledge of musical theory embroider the plainne 'ragtime' theme with a wealth of marvelous punctual ornamentation and a marvelous enrichment of coloring and complicated instrumentation, that the primal rhythmical element - 'ragtime' Negro is disguised as a mere blunt of a motif of the 'ragtime' rhythm is lost to the popular ear. No! 'Ragtime' is neither dead nor dying, but is undergoing a vast development, and is more popular now than ten years ago. Mr Sousa always interpreted Negro music administratively, as a composer, he remained immune from its contagion, although he closes a 'suite' of his own compositions with a reminiscence from his Negro rhythmic contagion, and the present day popularity of the 'embroidered ragtime' may be the cause of many of the unwieldable trends of his latter-day marches. It seems in credulous that John Philip Sousa, who a few years ago made the world merry with his masterful rendition of the possibly Negro tenors, would be credited with the unpopular statement that ragtime music is dead. I attended a Sunday organized musical concert of the new world, on February 14 last at Mr. James Hall, the largest auditorium in that city, which was crowded to its fullest capacity. The above mentioned concert was advertised as 'Sousa and the Largest Band in the World', of four hundred musicians. Now, if it was the conservatory opinion of Mr. Sousa that 'ragtime' is dead, and the public had tired of Waybey Hill, the cultural boom a suite of his own composition with a descriptive Negro theme programmed 'Nigerie In A Wood pile' judging from the tremendous applause following the rendition of this number by such a fastulous audience, had there been any doubt in the mind of Mr. Sousa concerning the popularity of 'ragtime' it should have been dispelled immediately. ( B r a d , T i m H e r m p ) (Musical Director of Smart Set Co.) "I am sorry that I have not read Mr Sousa's article climbing that ragtime is dead and that the public is tired of it. There is no doubt in my mind that Mr Sousa's article is interesting coming as it does from a man of such high ability. And I am sure that he offers some good reasons proving his claim. But I can not say that I think the same as he along these lines. To begin with ragtime, or synchronic music is the offencing or shifting the accent of a tone or chord falling on a naturally strong beat by trying it over it. To proceed week beat a tone or chord thus changed is called ragtime. Thus we find in the classes as well as the oldmen soon serve. I am willing to admit however that the low-clas. ragtime sounds that one way are a thing of the past only to be supplemented by a higher or more elastic order. Please Go 'Way and I Me Sleep. one of my most useful composition is often improperly placed in the ragtime category. But in this composition you will find no more synchronic than is ordinarily found in coolish it is, it is not and it places on a strong flavor of ragtime. It has been said by an eminent composer that true American music is ragtime. This to my mind is true. For example, let the age age American attend an opera and hear the classic strains of music from the great masters. When it is over with sounds of these grand strains still recovering he will unconcealed on his way home whistle some light ragtime time. It is in him that he can't shake it. I am told to say that I think the Negro holds a stronger claim to the origin of ragtime than any other race, but, after all, the spirit has been eagerly caught up by all races, and they all fallen in line and are now matching to the happy strains of ragtime. (By (Brile Smith) "Concerning the receipt article by John Philip Sonner, wherein he stated that ragtime music is dead, I wish to say that we have been hearing the same thing for more than ten years. When I first began to earn a living as a composer of the so-called ragtime music, the first song I wrote was "singing, Carrie." Even the poet "to accept this song as ragtime music was EDITED BY LESTER A. WALTON dead, yet when the song was published over a half million copies of it were sold. A little later I wrote 'Shame On You,' a very rough coon song. The publishers said they wouldn't be able to sell a hundred copies, but three hundred thousand copies of it was sold. Three years ago I wrote 'He's A Coin of Mine, and about we have hundred thousand copies sold.' The same year I wrote 'All In, Down and Out,' and over one hundred thousand copies were sold. Last summer I wrote 'You're in the Right Church but the Wrong Pew.' My last statement in January was one hundred and fifty thousand copies sold, and it is still selling in big lots. My latest ragtime song is 'Down Among the Sugar Cane,' and it is fifty thousand copies of it sold. I expect it to sell better than any song I have written. The dealers say it will positively go over a half million, and yet they say ragtime music is "dead." (Dy Will H. Dixon.) "Commenting on Mr Souna's criticism, I desire to say that I disagree with him. For instance, take the melodies of Will Marion Cook, they are more or less full of syncopation or what is commonly termed ragtime, likewise J Rosannond Johnson's Harry T Burleigh, one of the greatest legends of American music, be just finished with a chant cycle, the theme of which is taken from Dudley folk songs with syncopated rhythm. I feel confident in saying that Mr Souna, after reading the score of Mr Burleigh's cycle, would know that it was the product of a master mind. The trouble is there are many worthless compositions thrown upon the market to-day, and for want of a better name they are termed "ragtime" and such composers Mr Souna that such are short lived, but the melodious compositions in syncopated rhythm by such composers as I have mentioned shall never cease to be pleasing to the ear of a music-loving public" (By Thomas Lemonier.) "In answer to John Philip Sonas's statement that ragtime has had its day and that the public is tired of it, then, if such is true the public has tired of nature, the sweet song-birds, the music of the trees, etc. Ragtime music is the only real melody that thrills the heart and moves the feet. The old Southern Negroes knew nothing of notes nor high art, yet they sang, and all who heard them stopped to listen. To such music which no one can listen to, and dance to their hearts' content it stimulates the works of the old composers will not. We don't ask which is the sweeter—the warble of the birds or the sighing of the trees—its all music. So ragtime We often forget grand opera and all that and come down to nature and dance as did the warriors of old from the music of the heart, not of the brain Long live ragtime, and long live the works of the old masters.

Sunday she appeared at the Metropolis Theatre in vaudeville with Dan Michaels, and the team "went big" despite the fact that the members of the team had but little time to rehearse. After their successful performance Sunday night they were immediately booked for Atlantic Garden, under the name of the Merry Michaels, where they are playing this week. What is the matter with the vaudeville players residing in the big city? Those living in Boston seem to be more active. Already they are arranging baseball matches. The Williams and Walker team is in the city and Ole and Johnson will be here within a couple of weeks. Then we expect to see some great games pulled off, from a comedy standpoint. At the Yorkville Theatre last Saturday evening, the Bandanna Land Company closed the season after having been out since August. When the show was out the members of the company were sent a scramble and a letter was read from Gwyn W Walker who was unable to be present. In the letter the well-known comedian expressed regret for not being able to be on hand, but wished each and every member good luck through the summer months. Bert A Williams was now called on for a talk, and he, with much feeling, told his hearers that his one was that when the season opened that his partner would be with him Boston fans are waiting with interest for the ball game to be played Saturday between the Colored Vaudeville Club of Boston and the Unity Club. On the vaudeville nine are Walter Robinson pitcher, Lash Gideon, catcher, W.A.

Dore Henderson, left field The Unity Club is composed of James Allen, age and pitcher Charles Bass, catcher James Small, shortstop Theodore Jennings, second base; Jim Timley, third base Dolphus Clegg, right field, Lawrence Burke, center field, and Judge Hardy left field Jack Johnson was unable to go through his gymnastic stunt at Hammerstein's Victoria Theatre last Sunday owing to the Sunday law, but the occasion instead of proving a drawback, was just to the contrary. With Blanche Deas, of Deas and Deas, he appeared in a hastily written play by the writer Corbett and Mike Donlin are not the only athletes who can earn money on the stage as actors. Johnson gave the audience some good laughs, and his stage presence is good.

WALTON) Courtenay Hearnman Wife Plebs ALTHOIOL H., is not generally known a little cloud has appeared on the horizon that threatens to grow larger proportions and produce a wider impact he to the plight of the International League of Basketball Clubs of America and USA. If such a condition comes about Sol White for many years manager of the Philadelphia Giants will bear the responsibility of having caused the trouble Sol White has managed the Philadelphia Giants for a number of seasons. H W Schlumberger of Philadelphia has been president and secretary of the club. Although the two men started out as joint owners, as is usually the case the whiten became the head of the business in fact while the colored partner became minor factor. This season White will not manage the Philadelphia Giants. He and Schlumberger agree to disagree. Therefore Philadelphia will have another colored baseball club to be known as the Quake Giants, which will be owned and managed by Sol White. Had the International League of Colored Baseball Clubs of America and Cuba agreed to give White dudes for his new team there would not have been any trouble but the league seemed to be averaged such an arrangement. In the meantime White made a personal visit to the owners of the various parks in New York city and virtually where colored tennis are strong attractions and he has been promised slots regardless of the objections of the league. There are colored players of the league I W Connor of New York City owner and manager of the Royal Ganges He and What are very good friends and it is said that the latter is trying to be hired to withdraw his players from the club to the league. It is hoped that Connor can get for Sunday games and show Connor make up his head to join forces with White. It would mean a shift in the International League of Colored Baseball Club. According to reports several of the owners of baseball parks where colored tennis play have given Sol White assurance that in the event of an alliance between the managers will get their support as they will have the strongest attractions Among the parks the tennis players playing along the screen are the Ridgewood Park Brooklyn Laughlin-Lemont Brooklyn Bronx Oval New York City and Manhattan Field New York City. At present Nat C Strong is secretary of the International League of Baseball Club of America and Cuba and arrangements all dates for the respective club. The artist would like to see the colored managers of the East become as strong factory in baseball as they are in the West. Whether failure in the back plan a small part in the management of the colored clubs in the East and yet these clubs are the strongest drawing circles and always bring out hundreds of admirers white and colored.

Billy Ward is at the Collingwood Opera House Poughkeepsie. N.Y. From Washington D.C. comes the news that Manager Hawkins is having some trouble getting a house to conduct a colored moving picture house. Advices from the Capital City are as follows. Immediate steps to prevent the granting of a theatre house were taken by Mr. A M Curtis when she was informed by Tina A a few weeks ago that a colored moving picture theatre would open across the street from her home. She made a campaign among the nearby residents and secured a host of houses to be moved. Meridian those intending to do business have stocked their plant with about $1,500 worth of goods and machinery. They claim that they have as many signers as the law requires and that consequently, Mrs Curtis work will be of no avail. The theatre has not opened as yet the process of getting a license being made somewhat difficult for Mr Hawkins, the manager. If the commissioners do not grant a license, the managers of the theatre may find relief through mandumus proceedings. The formal opening of Barrett's new 27room theatrium on Pine Street, just west of Jefferson avenue, St Louis Mo took place last week. The building is a new, two story brick structure of the latest model for theatre purposes, with every modern improvement and convenience for the comfort and safety of the public and is equal in style and equipment to the best in the city. The Theatrum which has a seating capacity for four hundred is equipped with fine open chairs, carpeted aisles and numerous and spacious exits opening out on the street level. The building is fireproof and well equipped with architectural beauty and utility and a monument to the wisdom and enterprise of the young proprietor who is a native St Louisian Richard D.

White Women and Colored Women Have not barterofors used the same money as the other light in the big fashionable store of New York to see colored women and white women standing together at the same counter for toilet goods, all buying Complexion Wonder Cream. That mirage of chemistry makes white skin whiter and any kind of dark skin lighter. The conspicuous dry goods stores of New York sell Complexion Wonder Cream and the prominent colored women who are the leaders of their own social circle. We regard this as a good sign. We like to see colored people making themselves possessing and presentable. It shows they take pride in themselves. If our readers will write to M. B. Berger & Co., 2 Rector street, New York, they will receive an information book free, which tells how colored people can improve their appearance in a natural and healthy man It is contended that there are about 50% Negroes in Greater New York and allowing such to stand on an average of only 51% is a warrant for the necessities of 50% Negroes spent it directly by the Negro in this city alone. And it is contended that this same is consistently increasing with the nearly million of coloured population and will eventually amount to 50% Negroes in this city alone. The Negro with any intention of business cannot afford to neglect the opportunity to control as much as possible of the large sum which now goes almost wholly to strengthen those who are at host not only in the city but in the field of fortune. It is our belief that a way can be found to organize Negroes in business just as effectively as they are now organized in burles and secret societies. To that this way is the purported objective of National and Local Business Leagues. BROOKLYN A rental and reception will be given by Miss Mugge P.
