I could cite many other cases to show that a strong anti slavery sentiment prevailed in the South during the early days of the Republic, and prevailed very largely for the same reason that made it strong in the North—because with the growth of the Republic it was ceasing to be profitable. It was not until after Eli Whitney, a New Englander, invented the cotton-gin, did slavery again become profitable in the South and became the cherished policy of Southern LES W.

COLLECTOR CHARLES W ANDERSON statesmen The Republican and the Democrat s tatesmen Greens "In association with this general subject, perhaps you will be interested to know that a justice of the Supreme Court in the State of New York, in setting aside a verdict for damages in an action brought for false imprisonment by a colored man recently, announced that imprisonment, in his judgment, was not as humiliating to a colored man as it was to a white man. He was subsequently sustained by one of the Appellate Dismissions of the Supreme Court. This Appellate Court contained seven judges, four of whom were Republicans and three were Democrats. Two judges distrusted from the opinion, and certainly enough of these dissenting justices was a Democrat and the other a Republican, who was born in the South while the three concurring Republican justices were born in the North. I believe to them all, I must say that I think the verdict was excessive and should have been set aside but the reason given for it struck me as being somewhat fantastic to say the least. There are many others adduced in stances to show that race prejudice is not contended to the men of any particular section of this country. "Napoleon once said that sentiment ruled the world. He knew what he was talking about for although he was one of the most secretly practical of men, and believed in the strongest battalions. he was one of the greatest manu- centers of public sentiment that ever walked the earth. When not engaged on leading his ever victorious army against some nation he was busy writing stirring proclamation as composing inscriptions and the art and erecting commemorative monuments. If this was true in his day how much more specifically true is it to touch when Czars and Sultans have lost much of their old time power. This country is not ruled by Congress or the courts or the President. It is ruled by public sentiment. And the people, all of the people, are plain you-and-I, every-day sort of people, as well as the rich and powerful. Leading Negro Newspaper vOL. XXII. No. 38.

Negro Has Friends in Both Sessions. As to the sectional feature of it, we cannot quite forget that in the great Presidential campaign of 1801, Aaron Burr the Northern candidate, did not care a sixpeace about the liberties of black men, while Thomas Jefferson, the candidate of the South, was distinctly anti slavery in his sympathies. Paul Jones, a Virginian by residence, liberated his slaves in 1776, and brought them North and found homes for them in New England families, while Dr John G Palfrey a Lousianian, on the death of his father in 1838, refused a settlement of the estate which would leave the slaves to be divided between the other heirs, but sternly demanded his rightful share of them and at once gave them their freedom.

BAPTISTS OF NEW ENGLAND Hold Thirty-Fifth Annual Convention in Boston Elected President After a Hard Fight—Next Convention to be Held at the Abyssinian Baptist Church, New York. Special to THE NEW YORK AGE. Boston, Mass., June 22.—The thirty-fifth annual session of the New England Missionary Baptist Convention convened at Ebenzene Baptist Church on Thursday, June 17, and was in session for five days, the convention adjourning last Monday. A banquet was held in honor of the visitors Monday evening, which was largely attended. The convention adjourned to meet next year at the Abyssinian Baptist Church, New York City. On the opening day of the session the meeting was presided over by Rev William A. Creditt, vice-president, and services were conducted by Rev John Brown, of Newark, N. J. Rev. E. W. Roberts read several passages from the Bible, and Rev J. R Brown offered invitation. Rev W H Scott, of Woburn, delivered the address of welcome in behalf of the Baptist Ministers' Conference He was followed by Rev J. Francis, of Rush A M E Zon Church, who cospel for Greater Revton Rev Charles Campbell of the First Baptist Church, Cambridge, welcomed the delegates on behalf of the white Baptists of Boston, and Rev Mr Shaw on behalf of the Negro Baptists. In responding to the preceding speakers Rev J. C Love made some pleasing and interesting remarks to Baptist churchmen At the conclusion of the opening service Vice-President Creditt appointed the following committee. On enrollment, Revs W B Reed, T J. King, S W Smith, H A Booker, D. C Thomas, Mrs L B Leath, on nominations, Revs P T Moore, E L Gunningham, E E Jackson, G L P Taliafero, George Morrins, A Gordon, H H. Mitchell, A C Powell, E W. Johnson, L J Brown, H Powell, N W.

Norton, L J Brown, H McDonald, on new bodies, Revs S W Smith, H N Jeter, W S Holland, J H Wiley, J W Fisher, Brother P W Johnson, C B Norris, Sister Alice Weeden. At 3.30 p m Rev S W Smith, of Providence, led the devotional exercises, and the audience responded lustily when he asked them to join in singing "Blest Be the Tie that Binds" Rev Arthur Gay offered the Scripture reading and Rev W W Brown the prayer At this point Dr Creditt introduced Rev J E Harris of Norwalk, Conn, who had been chosen to preach the 33th annual sermon. He took as his text the following passage from the 20th Psalm "Some trust in charrots and some in horses, but we remember the Lord our God, the house of the servant our Name. Van Hearn led the congregation in a solo and chorus entitled 'God is Marching On' Rev J C Love made a motion that the rules be suspended, and the vice-president he given power to appoint the committees until a president is elected Prof I R L. Diggs, A M, of Lynchburg Seminary, was next introduced, and he told interestingly of the work being done at his school. Then followed the most important feature of the session—the report of the nominating committee and the election of officers. The result was as follows: President, Dr W. A Credit, vice president, Dr A C Powell, treasurer, Dr R D Wynn, recording secretary, Dr A Marks Harris, corresponding secretary, Dr W A Harrod, board of managers, Dr Wm A Creditt, Dr A C Powell, Dr R D Wynn, Dr A Mark Harris, Rev J C Love, B D, Rev S W Tins, Dr L J Brown, Rev H A Booker, Rev G Hunt, Rev W H Morton, Dr E H McDonald, Dr W H Hill, Rev B T Moore. At the evening session Rev S W Smith again conducted the devotional exercises, Rev W O Harris offered prayer. After a selection by the choir President Wm A Credit declared the convention open. Then followed a series of welcome addresses, Dr Theo L. A McCurdry, on behalf of the church, Rev J L. Campbell, D D, president of the Ministers' Conference, on behalf of that organization, and Rev Geo L. White, D D on behalf of the A M E Zion Church. The duty of responding to these addresses fell upon Rev G L. P Talafero Following this response came the sermon de luxe of the convention. This was preached by Rev G. L. Davis, of Nicetown, Pa. who was selected to deliver the educational sermon. His discussion of the topic from Romans 1:20 was a masterful effort and reflected the deep thinking capacity of the speaker Rev W H Phillips, of Philadelphia, offered a prayer at the close of the sermon, and was followed by Prof J R L. Diggs Rev I A Parks, chairman of the trustee board of the Downington Industrial School and College, followed Prof Diggs who called upon the North to take advantage of its golden opportunities. President Creditt appointed the following committee on new bodies: Rev S W Smith, H N. Jeter, W S Holland. A large following desired Rev. A C. Powell, D. D., the popular pastor of Abysinian Baptist Church, New York City, for president of the convention, --- and another large following made a choice of Rev. R. D. Ryden, and on Friday morning a strangulous effort was made to rule the election of Dr. Creditt out of order. Both Dr. Powell and Dr Wynn declined the nomination, and Dr Creditt's election stood. Dr W B. Johnson, Dr W. B. Reed, Deacon P. H. Fisher, Wm. Birchett, Rev. A. rothey was the committee of five appointed to that full prince. Saturday morning was devoted to the reading of letters and correspondence. On Sunday the visiting ministers occupied the pulpits in various colored churches, and great throngs were in attendance.

ALBANY, Ga., June 21—The grand jury in the United States court last week returned a no bill in the case of Minor E. Jackson of Mitchell county, charged with peonage. This is a case that attracted a good deal of attention at the time of the arrest of Jackson, who is a member of one of the most prominent families in this section. He was given a commitment trial shortly after his arrest and bound over under a $5,000 bond. Local Business League Busy. President Mr. L. C. Collins of the local Negro Business League is making strenuous efforts to have individuals engaged in business join the local organization which meets the first Tuesday evening in each month at the Hotel Mercer. The local league also is making efforts to have each man and woman engaged in business in Greater New York to communicate with the league, giving kind of business engaged in and its location. Plans Are under way for the organization of a state league, and the president invites correspondence from business men in the various towns and cities looking to the organization of a branch and arranging for a State meeting. Communications sent to L. C. Collins, 66th street and Bighthaven will respond to a request attention. The National Negro Business League meets in Louisville, August 18, 19, 20. New York should be largely concerned. MR. WALLING'S LAMENTATION T. Thomas Fortune Rehearses Some Political History WASHINGTON'S POLICY His Policies, and What They Are.—A Review of an Inclusive Article Published in New York Independent In The Independent for June 17, William English Walling has an inclusive, if not a conclusive, article on "Science and Human Brotherhood." It is the chiefest handicap of science, as of philosophy, that it never says the last word; therefore, it must be accepted always with the reservation that what it proves to-day it may disprove to-morrow. As exercise in rainbow chasing scientists and philosophers have more employment and confusion among themselves than other sorts of people. In Mr. Walling's inclusive bits of "science" is the following dogmatic statement of fact. The exclusive endorsement of Booker T. Washington's Negro policies, now universal in the North, is tantamount to a postponement of the demand for immediate political and social equality of the race to make a special effort now to obtain the ballot, to extend his higher education, or to demand equal rights. As these are the only rights universally denied by the Southern whites, this is equal to a general postponement of the Negroes' claim for political and social equality." As Mr Walling appears to have been the chief moving spirit in the recent conference for Negro uphift, held in New York City, and as he undoubtedly has at heart the good of the Negro people, it is worth white to correct his errors, lest he stumble and fall in the good work whereto he has set his hands, I will therefore take him up in sections (1) In the first place, it is customary for a man of Mr Walling's ability and pretensions, writing for a periodical of the character and standing of The Independent, to place the affix or honorary title before a man's name, as a matter of courtesy, to which he is entitled. Mr. Washington has a master's degree, conferred upon him by Harvard University. Southern newspapers habitually refuse to affix any title whatsoever to a Negro's name—man or woman, bishop or plowman, or the like—so that the point, though small in appearance, is big with consequence and was the direct cause in compelling Bishop Lampton to desert his home city in Mississippi but recently (2) Mr. Walling who is a Socialist, I believe, whatever that may be, ignorantly confounds "social privileges" and "civil rights." It is a lape usual among Southern white men, with whom the madness is method designed. Civil rights are inseparable from citizenship and are defined and regulated by the supreme power in the State. They are defined with minute particularity in the Civil Rights bill of New York State and by the Summer Civil Rights bill, covering all of the territory of the country under Federal administration. No power rests in Federal or State constitutions to regulate or control social privileges, which are the exclusive prerogatives of the individual. He will make his own associations, and he will make them after his kind, whatever his kind be, and he will not be forced in the dong of it without protest. Sir Walter Scott had "Marmion" express it, as Blackstone has defined it, in the following Luctiferic lines "My castles are my king's alone From turret to foundation stone. The hand of Marmion is his own. And never will in friendly grasp The kind of such as Douglas clasp." (1) Dr Washington has no Negro policies. The assumption that he has injures him and his work and places the Negro people in a false light. The policy of industrial education, which he has made a power for good for the Negroes who adhere to it, is not his policy. It was inaugurated by General Samuel Chapman Armstrong at Hampton Institute, at whose feet and of whom Dr Washington learned, but long ago Herbert Spencer had elaborated the policy of the co education of intellect and hand in order to best fit men for the work of life. In a letter to Mrs Harriet Beecher Stowe, before Hampton was instituted, Mr Frederick Douglass endorsed and elaborated the policy of such education for the Negro as needful and good. While others have been earnest workers for the higher education of the Negro, making it their special work, Dr Washington has as earnestly worked for industrial training, coupled with such academic and moral training as was necessary. The mammoth work of Tuskegee Institute demonstrates this year by year, and it demonstrates more—Tuskegee Institute gives more employment to Negro graduates of colleges and universities in the country and I defy Mr Walling to cite one sentence from the sayings of Dr Washington in which he has proclaimed against higher education. In laying emphasis on one sort of education he has not underrated the other sorts. But he has attended to his business of making the Tuskegee Institute policy a success, "in the Black Belt of Alabama," as he phrases it, and has left Mr Walling and other of his critics free to uplift the Negro by such policy as they may have, or think they have. (4.) It is a dubious tribute to Dr Washington to ascribe to him responsibility for the disfranchisement of the Negro citizens by the Southern States, and the acquiescence in the policy such disfranchisement made possible by Republican Presidents from Rutherford B. Hayes to William Howard Taft. "Let us have peace!" exclaimed General Grant on his dying bed, and that has been the keynote of Republican policy ever since Dr. Washington had nothing whatever to do with making the policy. In his letters to the constitutional conventions of South Carolina and Louisiana he pleaded earnestly against the proposition to disfranchise the Negro citizens. When the proposition was adopted by those States, and by the other Southern States, when what they had done was acquiesced in by the Federal Congress and affirmed, in so far as the question has gone to it on appeal, by the Federal Supreme Court, as Constitutional, did it devolve upon Dr. Washington to seize the jawbone of an ass and, as Samson did with the Philistines, beat into jellybub the offending Southern States, the acquiescent Congress and the Republican Presidents seeking to make the best out of a bad condition? Mr Walling evidently thinks so; Dr Washington does not think so. He seeks to make the best of the bad condition, politically, which he did not make and which he has not the power to unmake. I have known, personally, every President from President Hayes to President Taft. Every one of them, including President Cleveland, who was the only Democrat of the seven, strove diligently to do the very best by the Negro people which the Congress and the public opinion of the Republic would countenance. I did not always agree with them or their methods, and in each such dissent I am on record, and have nothing to retract Dr Washington has had influence with only three of the seven Presidents President McKinley's policy was moulded by Senator M. A Hanna, President Roosevelt moulded his own policy and bowled down and out any one who opposed it; President Taft also has his policy, and is a strong, experienced administrator grounded in the theory and the practice of the law. When these Presidents have done Dr Washington the honor to consult him on the Negro question, or the Southern condition, he has invariably advised what he considered was good for the Negro and the South. Is he less qualified to judge in either case than Mr Walling, who is tangled in the mazes of theory, which flouts condition and will none of fact? I think not. Is Mr. Walling honest in what he thinks the best way to serve the Negro people? I think so. Is Dr Washington? I know so, for we have labored and reasoned together for twenty years. Let us render unto Mr. Walling the things that are Mr. Walling's, and unto Dr. Washington the things that are Dr. Washington's. WOMEN OF VIRGINIA Meet in Richmond at Second Annual Convention of State Federation. Sponsored to the New York Age RICHMOND, Va., June 11.-The second annual convention of the State Federation of Colored Women of Virginia was held in Sharon Baptist Church Thursday and Friday of last week. The gathering was a large one, representative of the culture and progress of the women of the State Mrs. Harris Barrett, of Hampton, president, presided during the deliberations of the body. At the opening session, Thursday morning, after devotional exercises, introductory remarks were made by Mrs. M. L. Burrell, chairman of the local body, after which she introduced Mrs. Maggie L. Walker, president of St. Luke Bank, and secretary and treasurer of the Independent Order of St. Luke, who made the address of welcome. Mrs. Walker spoke in a most felicitous vein, placing particular emphasis upon the fact that the work of the federation meant something more tangible than elegant papers, beautifully framed resolutions and pretty speeches. It meant, she said, the exercising of every talent that God has given them to help raise the girls and women of the race to higher planes of living, thus making the race purer and better. The response was made by Mrs. Lotter days of Hampton. the I. Davis, of Hampton. The address of the president, Mrs. Harris Barrett, was a review of the work of the federation, and what it was doing in Virginia for the moral, mental and material uplift of the women, and educating them especially along those lines of sanitation in the home and the neighborhood, which will prove beneficial to the public health. During the several sessions a number of excellent papers were read and discussed among the women, Barber, Norfolk, "Mrs. and Sanitation," Miss Matter Cabaness, head richmond Hospitn. The necessity of Public Play grounds, Mrs. Ida Paey, Norfolk. The Difficult Problem of My Country" club presidents. The papers and discussions which followed brought out many useful suggestions and facts that were highly beneficial not only to the members of the federation but to the large number of visitors that were present at every session. Friday the Richmond branch gave a public musical and literary, followed by a reception, in honor of the State Federation. The program follows Music, Richmond Musical and Drama Association, recitation, Mrs Pearl Bland, solo Mrs Malired A Cross recitation, Mrs Jeanette Torrester, piano solo Mrs Ileen Bowler, recitation Mrs Mary Smith, paper, "Woman's Work." Mrs M A Johnson, music Richmond Musical and Dramatic Association, paper, "Our Work—Its Relation to the Church." Mrs Ora B. Stokes song, "God Be with You Till We Meet Again." The reception followed. Officers were elected at the afternoon session of Thursday as follows: President, Mrs. Harris Barrett, Hampton, vice-president, Mrs. Lottie P. Davis, Has Largest Circulation PRICE, 5 CENTS TILLMAN IS ATTACKED By Press of the Southland Because of Views on Tariff Declares The Charleston News and Courier, which says Newspapers Made the Senator FOREIGNMADE CLOTHES Sald to be Worn by South Carolina Senator, which is cited to Show His inconsistent Argument Against "Free Paper" Special to THE NEW YORK AGE. CHARLESTON, S. C., June 23.—Senator Tillman is "in bad" with the Southern press because of some of his views expressed last week in the Senate on the tariff, in which it is inferred that he is an ingrate. He is also charged with purchasing clothes outside of the United States. Particularly is the Charleston News and Courter bitter against the Senator's stand on the tariff, and declares that the newspapers have made him. Following is one of the articles published by the Charleston News and Courter. "Senator Tillman is said to have stamped his foot in the Senate yesterday because the newspaper publishers have asked for the removal of the duty on wood pulp and other articles going into the manufacture of paper. 'These very papers that are asking for free paper, the Senator is reported to have said, are the very headlights of Protection, and they deny me the opportunity to buy this coat or these shoes; yet they want free paper.' "It was evident from the way he stamped his foot that he would like to have his coats and shoes free of duty—we do not know but it might be found that at the very time he was stamping his foot he was wearing a coat bought by him when he was doing the art galleries of Europe last year. We think that he and all of his assistants ought to have the privilege of buying their clothes where they please, without paying more than they are worth for the benefit of the wool growers and manufacturers in this country; but because Mr Tillman's coat and shoes and iron and lumber are taxed 'in restraint of trade,' as it were, we fail to see why he should object to free paper, and particularly when so much of it is used every year to hold what he says. "Upon a little reflection he will probably conclude that he might be charged with ingratitude, if any one would take the trouble in this weather to hold him responsible for anything, for he has been largely made, as he himself has almost confessed at times in the heat of argument, by the newspapers of his own State and of the country. Besides, as we have been told, the tax on paper is a tax on education. It is not limited to the tax on what is called 'news print' paper, but upon all qualities of paper, whether used in the stationery of the Senate, the printing of the Congressional Record, the making of school books, or the wrapping of bottles sold at the dispensaries. If Senator Tillman would wear a free coat, why shouldn't even the headlights of Protection ask for and receive free paper on which to print the Senator's speeches?" SUFFRAGETTES OF BROOKLYN. Tender President Big Reception—Only Two Male Guests Present Two Male Guests Present. The colored suffragetes of Brooklyn gave a reception to their president, Dr. Cerina Morton-Jones, last week at the M. A. C.

"Washington does not want the Negro to make a special effort now either to obtain the ballot, to extend his higher education or to demand equal civil rights. As these are the only rights universally denied by the Southern whites, this is equal to a general postponement of the Negroes' claim for political and social equality." This statement, characteristic of socialists, in its fallacy and malice is the misstatement of the position of Booker T. Washington by William English Walling in his article on "Science and Human Brotherhood," in the last number of the Independent These words, as illogical as they are untrue and unjust, should not pass unnoticed Mr. Washington has never consented to a "postponement of the Negroes' claim for political" equality and any course of reasoning leading up to that conclusion is false and treachery. Each year Mr Washington insists upon the male eligible residents of Tuskegee Institute voting. More than a decade ago he made his eloquent appeal to the Louisiana Suffrage Convention not to disfranchise his race. Instances, too numerous for mention here, ever since that time could be recalled when he has asked in no uncertain tones, that his race have equal freedom in the franchise. But a few days ago at the mammoth Negro meeting in Mother Zion Church here the leader of his race declared his aversion to Southern political injustice. But over and above all this, Mr Washington urges his race to stress its energy upon that sure road of economics to racial respect, political and civil equality. Republic. Constant and peremptory demands by the race beneath for human brotherhood and manhood rights, without the power to enforce those demands are childishly and foolishly futile. This is apparent to all but purblind socialists. The recognition of this has been the basis of Mr. Washington's policy The charge of Mr. Washington's opposition to higher education is equally false and foolish. Tuskegee has always employed more Negroes from Harvard than any institution in this country. Mr. Washington is a trustee of Howard University at Washington and has spoken time and again for Fiske University, the two leading higher institutions for Negroes Actually, not bombastically, Mr. Washington is leading the cause of higher education as well as industrial education for Negroes. Walling will hurt the cause of the Negro infinitely more by trying to asperse the straight and strong stand of Booker T. Washington for the "highest development of the Negro without let or hindrance"—to quote his own words—than he can ever thus help him --- DERELICTION OF DUTY. The Negro churches of New York are not meeting, nor are they making the effort to meet the neighborhood conditions that they should. That the initiative in the improvement of slum conditions among Negroes is being made by white organizations, with one or two praiseworthy exceptions is a fact as true as it is reflective upon our local pastors. The districts such as those centering around Thirty seventh street and One Hundred and Thirty-fifth street seem never to have occurred to our churchmen as fruitful fields in which they are in duty bound to labor. There are Negro churches in this city amply able with wealth and workers to establish active and powerful missions in these districts. But for an occasional exception they have done nothing. Such work as Bethel A M E. Church has done in the maintenance of a rescue home where in the last six months they have saved a score of young women from their lives of wretchedness, every other large Negro church in New York could and should do. True it is that these pastors are already burdened with responsibilities. But like Bethel, like the white churches which have established missions through able and willing associates, rescue homes and mission meetings may be easily established and maintained. These are the added duties which metropolitan life imposes upon Negro churchmen especially. They may not abandon their fallen to the pity and more often the oversight of white charity workers. They may not rest content with preaching the word to those who chose to come to them It is for them to follow the lowly Nazarene into the by-ways and hedges. He said, "Go ye forth, and preach the gospel." LAMENTS HIS LEAVING. In thinly veiled language, the New Orleans Picayune thus lament the fact of Negroes leaving the Southland: The Negroes cannot be kept from swarming into the Northern States, and the census of 1910 is going to show a vast movement of Southern Negroes northward. They are going constantly, not in great hordes and multitudes, but in quiet, unceasing migration. That such a movement has set in operation a southward flow of whites is one of the most noticeable facts of the day in the Southern States and possibly nowhere do these immigrant appear in greater numbers than in Louisiana and Texas. But the two counter-movements are occurring everywhere in the South Rebuking the Picayune for its lament, the Washington Post asks 'Why should the Negro confino himself to one section?' Should he do so, it would be a confession of a hopelessness that would be a perpetual pleasant class. It would be for the good of both races if 3 000-000 Southern Negroes were transplanted to the North and 6 000-000 Northern whites take up their abode at the South.' With the Post we agree thus far. The Negro should not confine himself entirely to one section, nor should he nail himself to the soil, a perpetual peasant class. The Negro is doing neither. But the transplanting of Southern Negroes in such large numbers is not now desirable. For ambitious, capable Negroes to work out the problem on the spot is no confession of inferiority. It is an exhibition of the highest courage and common sense. The Negro, plodding onward in the South, bearing the burdens of political disfranchisement and social ostracism is developing and hardening his character. Facts prove that the Negro, suffering the South satanic, dastardly oppression, is not being hurt so deeply as his white oppressor Hannis Taylor in a recent North American Review points out that the ranks of able Southerners is becoming rapidly thinned. The successful Southern business men in New York City are conspicuous by their fewness The Southern Negro is actually growing in citizenship. He is owning the land which he cultivates, building a home, rearing a family, educating his children and paying taxes. He is there learning the arts of trade and business. He is building a sure and safe foundation of normal racial development. For so many Negroes, acclimated to Southern climate, with Southern and inferior training, to settle in the slums of the great Northern cities would be a race disaster. The South is the natural home of the Negro. There he must and will win VITAL ISSUES IN GEORGIA. Of great import to the Negro, the South and the Nation, are the issues to be settled by the just named arbitrators of the Georgia Railroad strike. Ex-Secretary of the Navy, Hilary A. Herbert, Congressman Hardwick and Bishop Warren, A Candler, representing the railroads, the strikers and the public respectively. It will be noted that all three are Georgians and that all have had such high position as to give them the opportunity for large and far-sighted views on the situation. As their decision under the Erdman act must be accepted by both sides, their word is final not only in the present crisis but will settle for good or ill all the issues involved therem As the Negro does and must furnish the bulk of the manual labor of the Southland, the arbitrators doubtless recognize that to drive the Negro from manual labor on Southern railroads will be to strike a great blow at the South's future prosperity. To discourage the Negro industrially by refusing him this opportunity of becoming firemen and senior firemen means encouragement in the same degree of Negro idleness and crime. To grant this mad demand of the strikers and their rabble sympathizers sets a precedent to be invoked and followed in all future Southern strikes, whenever the cry of "race" shall be raised by walking delegate or demagogue. It means future friction many fold the present in area and bitterness. It means eternal rancors in the vessels of Southern peace. To lose sight of these vital issues, to grant the heretical boon to Georgians of suppressing the Negro industrially as well as politically means encouragement to the deprived and lazy poor whites, who base their claim to superiority not on work and worth but on color. This would mean if carried to its logical conclusion, the abandonment of industrial training and uplift and hope for the Negro. In short, it means the perpetuity of the present "poor white" and the "idle and ignorant Negro" classes. It means with reasonable sureness the perpetuity of a lagging Southland Few boards of arbitration in this country have had so great, so delicate and yet more simple a task The Georgia arbitrators may either be courageous and benefactors for all time of the Southland, or they may be cowards postponing indefinitely Southern progress. They may be statesmen or they may be demagogues. But the interests of peace and prosperity for present and succeeding generations, the best interests of Southern white and Negro labor demand that the Negro be not deprived of the right to work. THE NEW YORK AGE, THURSDAY, JUNE 24, 1909. "AR GOOD A COLLECTOR." Gracious and reassuring was the compliment paid Collector Chas. W. Anderson at the Washington High Schools' commencement by President Taft "As good a collector as he is orator" Mr. Anderson must indeed feel complimented, for few orators of the present day are so gifted with pleasing and putty utterance, with happy presence of mind and such melodious eloquence. In addition to a native ability of rare and full endeavour, Mr. Anderson has had a political experience equaled by few in extent and class. Conservative, far-sighted, industrious, patriotic in the highest degree to his country, no less loyal to his race. Mr. Anderson is the inspiring and constructive political leader of his people. I many a campaign has he resolved to serve to the Republic, but never in his long career had he stood in so strategic a position both as his race and to his purpose in the last national campaign. He is with which he acquitted himself. He told in the fact that there was no considerable detection among Negroes from the rank. Assisted his post during the present administrator Mr. Anderson will continue his effective service. More than a hundred Negroes in New York owe their present position in the Federal service to the direct or indirect efforts of our collector. This is one of the many concrete things Collector Anderson has done for his people and the undeleted Negro race is genuinely proud of him. Still in its infancy and yet the most powerful and persistent organization of Negroes the country has known, the National Negro Business League actually is working wonders for the Negro race. We carry constantly in our columns items from correspondents from Connecticut to California, from Washington to Texas, concerning the strenuous efforts put forth by the small bands of Negro business men to stimulate the two to greater commercial activity. These efforts are bearing abundant fruit. Word comes from the national capital that the Business League there will charter a special car to the convention of the National League in August at Louisville. Word came to us last week of the splendid businesses in every line of commerce the Negroes in Louisville have. The National League has had its national organizer in the community of Louisville for some time, and it seems that the Negroes in that section are stirred and enthusiastic as never before. Splendid and remarkable as have been the annual gatherings, as at Baltimore and in this city, the Negroes of Louisville are expecting the greatest convention yet held. The Negroes of Mississippi, holding their local league convention in Okalona next week, have been inspired to greater progress by the Business League than the Negroes of any other State. The invitation upon our desk to attend shows how this league has affected public sentiment in that "most southern of Southern States." Not only will the mayor and leading white merchants address the league but this in turn will listen to representatives from the eleven Negro banks of Mississippi. We, too, would like to co-operate with the citizens of Louisville in making the coming convention the biggest and best one. We urge every Negro business league throughout the country to send representatives, and as many as possible. We urge every Negro of light and leading in the country to attend and confer upon the commercial future of the race. We say: "Let the good work go on! LITTLE AND LARGE THINGS patronage of a Negro doll factory in Nashville. Negro Elks, we are told, are enjoined by their order to patronize their brothers in business. Every other fraternal organization should follow this splendid example. These are the little and yet the large things that Negro conventions may do. They will add to the popularity and prestige of Negro organizations. They would put and save countless thousands of dollars in the pockets of the Negro race. These are great opportunities for Negro conventions to aid the race EDITORIAL AFTERTHOUGHTS. Just as we predicted, Bishop Lampton is going back Men of the holiness and haughtiness of that fearless Mississippi stalwart don't scare an inch According to report, several score of African society belles, out of more curiously disgusted themselves, Xs men and enlisted in the party of President Roosevelt The chivalrous American needn't have been shocked, for "girls will be girls," and one can never tell where they'll be next. It is officially announced that Hon William H Lewis, head of Boston's Immigration Bureau, is booked for retention Aside from the record of the brainy attorney, there is no man who has sat down so good and hard upon the lid of Boston's hot-air box The way I Thomas Fortune has been coming back with his old logic, masterful and incisive, at those who have recently taken nasty flings at him, is a caution, never kick a man until you know he is down and out. "The old Nestor of Negro journalism is back onto the job," is the placard Trooper Lutter, of Morgovia, Liberian in Boston filling up on the "spirit of 1726." It is rather significant that the Liberian at this official crisis in Liberian affairs should make his first step at the Cradle of Liberty. But if the Liberian really wants to and his people, we think he will leave the lungs of the nation, Boston, and go to the local Washington The New York daily papers have been saying in unison that a Negro millionaire is the thing for the Negro race. The dailies could not be expected to have our inside information, for we could name a hundred Negroes who have so much money that they don't know what to do with it. Press reports say the audience cheered wildly when President Taft told Collector Anderson that he needn't hand out any more "Taffy" to hold his job. The statement was somewhat ambiguous, and if he had meant what he did not mean, well, the circumstances would be too dreadful to contemplate MISSIONS AND SALARIES Correspondent Says Small Part of Mission, Money Reaches Africa. To the Editor of the New York Age: Mission has of recent years become foreign house and personal missions The pleas made for the stupid African in his ignorance will not less be needed some day by the fellow who makes them to help him out to the sloth pond of sin, for having robbed God and his black brother One of the great secretaries files a report like this. Seventeen Home Missionaries raised for foreign missions $17,542 65, and out of this amount raised, not one cent reached the foreign fields, as he so stated. It took all of this amount for the salaries of the same, notwithstanding this secretary must have and does get all of this amount, save 25 per cent, which is allowed each worker as his salary. You may figure for yourself 25 per cent of $17,542 65 in a neat sum to be swallowed up in victory. One missionary who is saying she gave her life for Africa raised $0.55 29, and not one cent went to Africa. But the secretary so states it was raised for salary, while the missionary said it was raised for Africa. There were $18,727 66 raised and $174,526 65 was buried beneath the dews of America, while $1,185 01 stepped out on it way to the four and one-half million starving souls in Africa. One thousand one hundred dollars and two cents of the $1,185 01 was given in one place, which leaves $83 80 for the salaries of the missionaries on the foreign field There is, as stated, seventy-seven missionaries and helpers, all of whom are down for pay for what they do. The total sum raised was $27,700 70, of which less than $200 reached the foreign field. The secretary in meeting his exchange board raises his most favorite hymn, "I Must Tell Jesus," and it is well he did, for the burden of theft was growing heavier and heavier, while the members sang with joy. "I wish you would tell us," this secretary writes "of the deplorable conditions of his people in Africa, because his ministers were "not allowed to perform the rites of the marriage ceremony, and to him he declares this was one of the saddest things, which the work was confronted with in darkest Africa" While at the same time in the light of America and facing-all of the new and old Testaments, the Stars and Stripes, he himself was using Africa's money, trying to keep out of the clutches of the law, running from the righteous wrath of his own family. From all reports on the sister's side, he is now engaged to several maidens, not in Africa, but in America. Do the whites contribute to this great cause? The majority of the men and women who receive salaries per month are all paid by the white boards to help faster this great graft syndicate. We can say it pays to continue to write up the workers in the missions. We are doing pretty nicely. The secretary also gives great reports of monies raised on the foreign field. These, he says, would overbalance that of the home field and doubtless they, too, are all used the same way as it could not get away with much satisfaction to the shores of Africa. "Dom Wm. Knowe."

Of course that man was very nearly risky, and he could have added with assurance that the neighborhood he had built thirty years ago was torn apart. Georgia to be sure is a place on the Coast of Gulf Coast where devotion is surpassed of apprehension as Georgia The Star of Zion. In this same issue we should speak briefly to President Laft to the graduating class of Howard University. And we sing at the colossal men who have devoted the feeling of the President to the future of the Negro road this year. Last year it was a long time since I felt I had felt justified that the nation needed the success of the land a right to mountain a great institution of which it belongs must be trained.

That I shall not subdue for any daily superior that thanks me of the criminal Negro that of the positive element and misuses upon him the moral element and misuses upon the best colored citizens who are its subscribers. The Nashville Clarion. In our judgment this League does not consider the best interest of the Negroes in other world men more of the best interest of the black men and are anxious to get even with the President whom they claim is immical to the Negro. Negroes have no spare time to be fooling with such recalcitrants. Let them have their meetings, and invite Democrats to address them. We cannot not be used for the purpose of furthering their interests--The Lexington Standard. Last Saturday to my mind the climax of our prepure war was arrived when the Presidential party arrived in this city. Congressman Burke's big car was put at the disposal of the President, but because Congressman Burke's chauffeur happened to be a Negro the white Norio was allowed to lead the paddle and last the President of the United States. How much further will the American white man carry his prepure against an oppressed and downrotten people. The Pittsburgh Pioneer Chapman, W. W. Glidden of the 21st Infantry has been serving as a member of the Board of Inquiry by designation of the Secretary of War, to describe ways and means for increasing the efficiency of charships in the United States Army. The settings were held at Fort Leavenworth Kansas and the suggestions put forth by Dr. Glidden were given a very attention and cordial hearer for the board and the first of the race to be called upon to act in such a capacity. The Richmond Reformer There are those who allege that education is improbable in the proper direction of the Negro and that it makes him more immoral and more criminal. On this point Bishop Galloway replied I present well, all the emphasis of my argument, to the Negro in the mineral and criminal.

WISE AND SAFE COUNSEL Transcript Lauds Washington's Advice to Narcissus to Homan South. to Negroes to Remain South. Few graduating classes this year are likely to receive more significant counsel from those selected to offer it than the colored student of Lincoln University were given at their commencement this week by Booker T. Washington. This institution must not be contended with the one of the same name at Cumberland Gap. It is located in Pennsylvania, and its large in the list of higher institutions of higher education, less graduated twenty young colored men, earnest and well trained to deal with the problems of life. Among them with three Zulu graduates of the legal department who leave for their homes in South Africa to become missourians using their own people. The thought which Mr. Washington sought to impress upon his hearers was that the South was the place for the Negro. Perhaps he gave it more emphasis than the public platform, though he has shown his faith in that position by his own life work. He does not believe in trying to work out problems by running away from them but chooses his field of service where the appeal is the strongest directed to the least more particularly whose assistance he desired in the general work of uplift, he yet believes that in that section lie the best hopes for development and advancement, not only for the leaders, but for the industrial army, whom lowly are honest and genuine. His situation is in interesting and wholesome contrast to that of Bishop Henry Turner, who has been directing much of his zeal and energy to a movement that contemplates the self-banishment of his race to undergreat nameless haven of refuge, there to undergreat nameless and unimagined experiences. It is true that the black man at the South must make his black struggle against the handicap of social political, and to a somewhat less a tent industrial and to a somewhat less a tent industrial and to a somewhat less a tent industrial and to a somewhat less a tent industrial competition where else in the world could he find the same leverage for reaching the goal toward which his best impulses and aspirations include him?

There his ideals are constantly broadening and clarifying, and his unanimous he is raising in the act of making him would the moulding influences of civilization keep so firm a grip upon him.

NEGRO SCHOOLS NO BURDEN. Southern Educator Concides on Southern Dereliction in Negro's Education. PART III "There is no doubt about the alarm and distress felt among our farmers and planters of southern Mississippi and northern Louisiana over the recent exodus of Negroes to the region of Mississippi, where it appears attractive inducement has been out to them. We will probably not only appraise the Value of it, but as the dependable labor of it, we lose him, and it we will this lesson from the situation of Mississippi and Louisiana we will take up our minds that we at least lose him." On the surface of the letter (N.C.) Observer of Journal, 1909, sat: It is a singular fact that the pro- cess most antagonistic of the Negro and most destructive of the hum are often the very the longest show when the depar- ting of his own labor agent undertakes to from one Negro to another counters him present up by strong pains within similar acts to those most toughly beaten states, laws, world living labor are unequivocal It is not merely that the found immediately at hand the Negro place for many of those most toughly beaten by deeds) upon keeping the Negro almost will he, in the oppose or the further out of the impregnate from without. They will be aired to who it be he is to be at all does not cause a complaint of formidable ethics. Complaints against the Negro as a burden and a curse are forgotten in longer complaints of another sort who may attempt to injure the two In 1891, the Negroes of North Carolina listed $5,015,416 worth of property. In 1905 they listed $21,716,922 or 171 per cent increase in secession. The property listed to whites was only 30 per cent during this period. In other words, Negro property increased during these 50 years only twice in property to white property. In Georgia, in 1891 Negroes listed $14,190,716. In 1907 they listed $7,004,822, an increase of 52 per cent. White property during the same period increased just 9 per cent. This indicates that the ratio of increase for Negro property during the last sixteen years has maintained a race increase more than twice the rate of white property. Such facts give an impression of the hard facts of Negro and white justice in hoping that senseless race prejudice which has for its own sake the ineffectual enshancement of Negro children will soon pass away. In hope for the blessings of heaven on those for the blessings of heaven on children, it bridges more light and chances for those or an interruption. W H D DUGRO'S INFINITE WISDOM. Dugro More to Be Plitted Than Ceaured, says 'Correspondent. To the Editor of THE NEW YORK ACE, The assertion of Justice Dugro, in the appeal of the court of a Pullman porter, the accused and imprisoned for the theft of a pocket book to the effect that a Negro does not suffer as much in mind and repression as a white man from a false charge of theft and because of this should not be awarded damages against his accusation, an amount as large as would have been his just due had he have been a white man was certainly just cause for our comment. He speaks with almost infinite wisdom and reveals to the world the huge charge that the Negro has ever high his caliber to him or he owes him his reinforcement, culture and intelligence suffers as much from an equal injustice as a white man, no matter how low the calibre of that man. This is perhaps another instance of a mortal being in close and confidential communication with the Almighty and having had revealed to him the proper place intended, by the Great One, for the Negro in his scheme of racial production and relation. It seems that the justice is of the number who are unable or unwilling to grasp the idea that the racial and physiological characteristics which differentiate the Negro from others who go to make up God's great human family do not place him outside of the realm where higher sensibilities and finer feelings are known and possessed. He seemingly does not know that the development of a free people is a process of natural selection, the gradual unfolding and unbending of the inherent potentialities of the race. If they are capable of progress, advancement culture and intelligence, they will mentally progress, advance become cultured and intelligent, if they are not they will just as inevitably fail and fall. This is one of the laws of racial progress and growth and no barriers temporarily created can permanently affect the operation of this law. In spite of the fact that the justice based his discrimination upon color alone (every honest man) must admit that there are Negroes (can it be that His Honor has never had the pleasure of contact with such) who would suffer the fullest humiliation and mental torture if they were placed in the same position as the accused porter Romer A.

To Settle Big Railroad Controversy in the State of Georgia Falls To Arouse Enthusiasm Among Negroes.—Hardwick, of Georgia, Known for Anti-Negro Attitude in Congress W. N. D. C., June 22.—After many discussions, appointments and the Arbitration Board at the Georgia Railroad Commission, in which the Georgia Railroadmen, in which the Negro firemen shall be at the railroad company, at the art and Congressman Harvey of Georgia, the first two men on the board, for days to agree on the third arbitration, after conference was held to no good purpose. As we having a difficult time agreeing the third member, they were on the board of Mediation at the expiration of midnight, no decision had been reached at the matter, under the Erdmann, that have to be referred to the Mediation. At Mediation consists of Charlott A. Knapp, of the Interstate Commerce Commission, and Dr. Charlott Netho, Commissioner of Labor. At hour the two members of the Arbitration Board selected Bishop W. A. Candler, of the Methodist Church, of Georgia, to fill the Bishop Candler did not it was possible for him to take the controversy, and decline the arbitrator. He gave as his reason not serving that his brother of the Georgia Railroad's Mr. Hilliard court and Hardwick again four times in a quandary, but instead of long arguments for days, as he waterized their actions before the court of Bishop Candler, they again appointed David C. Barrow, Chairman of the University of Georgia, collection of Prof. Browar was a member of the Board of Mediation. The court of Arbitration will hold its trial meeting this week, and under the law the controversy must be covered within thirty days. It is said that the personnel of the Arbitration Board has aroused great dismay among the Negroes throughout the country, as there is not one of the board that is an outspoke advocate of "a square deal" for the Negro. Congressman Hardwick, of Georgia, has opposed many bills introduced in Congress in behalf of the race, and has made several bitter anti-Negro speeches. Hilary A Herbert is a Democrat of the first water, and served as Secretary of the Navy under Grover Cleveland. He is now practicing law in the capital city. It is said that Chancellor Barrow is about the most favorably disposed of all the members on the board relative to giving the Negro opportunity. Peteraburg, Va.

MAYOR TO WELCOME NEGROES Venro Business Men and Bankers Sons Gather In Okolonk Conven- tion New al to The New York Okolona, Miss. June 22 — This city is already taking on a convention air in its busy preparations for the annual conventions of the Mississippi Negro Business League, the Mississippi Federation of Colored Women's Clubs and the State Negro Press Association, all to hold on June 29 and 30. Plans have about been perfected for the sessions of the Business League, which will doubtless be the most popular in the history of the State League. The citizens and the local branch co operating will tender to the visitors, which will include a large delegation from Mound Bayou and Jackson, a mammouth banquet. Word has been received from nearly all of the dozen Negro banks in this "most southern of Southern States" to the effect that representatives of their institutions will be present. Charles Banks, president of the State organization and first vice-president of the National organizations ably seconded by the tar-fained Isaiah T. Montgomery, are going to be present to lead this banner convention in its highly promising effort for a general business awakening among Mississippi Negroes. Hon H. L. Morrison Mayor of Okalona, in behalf of the city and one of her foremost white citizens and merchants, Hon F. J. McDonnell, in behalf of the white population will make the leading addresses of welcome to C W Carter, a large Negro merchant will speak for the local league, and Roy A. Battle on the part of the local churches and schools to the successor Negro worker of Vickeryburg T G Fwing, C A Greene of Holly Springs, and W I Latham, of Jackson. Successful, wealthy Negroes in every line of business from every corner of this State, from Natchez to Jackson will address the convention during its two days' interest. Interest will especially be urged in the national convention at Lousville in August. On this point the prospectus of the State organization says Because of the activity of the Mississippi branch of the league, and the general advancement made by us in this State in business, it has been decided to give one entire day at the National League this year for the discussion of progress made by us in this State, and will be known as "Mississippi Day." The persons who are to represent us in addresses etc. on this occasion at Louisville next August will be selected during our session at Oklahoma. This will be the first time in the history of the National League that an entire day has been given over to one State. Mississippi should show their appreciation by sending a larger delegation to Louisville than ever before." DEPOSITORS OF FREEDMAN'S BANK Likely to Receive a Part, If Not All, of MONEY--Attorney-General Active. WASHINGTON. D C June 22—United States Attorney General Wickersham is taking an active interest in plans for settling the affairs of the long defunct Freedman's Saving Bank, an institution in which thousands of Negroes were induced to deposit their money after the Civil War. Negroes throughout the United States are interested in the Freedman Bank case, and there is a possibility of those who lost their money in the venture receiving at least a part, if not all, of their deposits. Rev J. L. White has had a conference with Attorney-General Wickersham with reference to the disposal of certain money that remains undistributed in the United States Treasury, but belongs to depositors or their heirs. When the concern failed it owed $293,925.22 to 61 131 depositors. Under a Federal Commission dividends aggregating 62 per cent have been declared and of this $1,648 181 72 has been claimed. This leaves $1,291 744 50 still unpaid. Dr White called the attention of Judge Taft to this matter before he became President and Attorney-General Wickham's action is believed to have been inspired by Mr Taft.

The vestry of the Protestant Episcopal Church of the Redeemer in West 130th street at a meeting held last week decided not to sell the church site to St. Philip's Protestant Episcopal Church, now in West Twenty-fifth street, which had made an offer of $50,000 for the property It has been reported that Blahop Greer advocated in a communication to the weary of the Church of the Re- deemer the acceptance of St. Philip's offer. The Rev. W. W. Davis, the pastor, said that Bishop Greer had not urged acceptance of the offer of purchase, but had merely recommended that the vestry consider the proposal. This the vestry had done. There was no divergence of opinion and the vestry had decided not to sell. This decision had been reached partly in view of a more promising financial outlook. Col. James Lewis to Rettire.

Will Rule the Country, says Independent We have been told that the South is the paradise of the Negro; that there the people welcome the Negro to all sorts of labor, as mechanics as well as scavengers and porters. But here was the attempt to forbid just this ordinary humble sort of service. It represents the ill-will to the aspirations of the Negro folly by the lower class of white men. The trouble has been fomented among the country poor white along the lines of the railroad. It is a fine defilement of the engines and boosten them. They would drive the Negro back to the soil. Well, let them try it. Even their success would be the greater failure. Those that own the soil in the end own the country. If the whites go to the cities and the blacks to the country, in the end the latter will be the winner. If the whites that are crowded out of the country, and in the end the successful and wealthier blacks will go to the cities also. The great black belts will have their mechanics, their merchants, their bankers, their men of property and culture, and they will find their level, and they will be the most well-educated an important conference in the city at which Professor Wilder, of Cornell, and other anatomists and anthropologists have shown most clearly that there is no skull or brain structure by which we can tell a white man from a Negro, and this is the present conclusion of science. The great black men, and the great men, and no class prejudices can permanently shut out a race from its opportunity. But even now, a great hope for the Negro in the South is the growing sense of justice among the whites.

"Blanco Posnet" is the title of the new piece written by Bernard Shaw, which has provoked no little discussion among the playwrights, players, managers and officials in King Edward's domain. Strange to say, the play portrays a group of people who take delight in lynchings and breaking the law, a set more closely associated with the life of communities situated in the United States than in any other part of the world. It is not surprising to learn that the Britons are strongly opposed to the presentation of a play which depicts a people who rever] in lynchings and lawlessness, as mob law is more of an American institution than a European one. When Bernard Shaw presents "Blanco Posnet," to the American public, the writer wonders if we, the people of the United States, will have our finer sensibilities shocked as was the case of the English officials, or will we, knowing so much about lynching, North East, South and West, regard the piece as a thing of beauty and joy forever and herald it as a great production. While on the subject of lynching, we would like very much to have Bernard Shaw come to America and write a play on mob law, not taking the residents of a backwoods community as the principal characters of outlawry, but people who live in what is supposed to be an up-to-date community reflecting the culture and progress of the citizens of the United States. Where Scenes for a Play could be Lait. The writer will not go back to the Springfield, Ill., lynchings, and suggest that the scene be laid there. We will be more up-to-date and lay the scene in New York City, the metropolis of the United States. Bernard Shaw could style the drama "Almost a Lynching," and could get an inspiration for writing such a play by reading the New York morning papers of June 22. The next sight of the gaze of the writer Tuesday morning was the headline, "Lynchers Mob a Negro They Seize from Policeman—Two Thousand Persons Brutally Beat and Kick Prisoner." According to published accounts of the incident at One Hundred and Twenty-sixth street and Amsterdam avenue, a mob of 2,000 took a colored man who was supposed to have assaulted a white boy from a police officer, and had it not been for the opportune arrival of a squad of police another lynching would have been recorded in honor or dishonor of the United States of America. The mob was led, it is said, by members of the Olympic Club, which has rooms at the intersection of Manhattan avenue and One Hundred and Twenty-fifth street. To visit this locality one would be impressed with evidences of culture, but we believe the word veneer should be coupled with culture so someone merrier. Here is some of the dialogue that should make good material for a dramatist: "For God's sake, men, this is not the South; this is the North Give the man a chance," which was spoken by one whose father was formerly Commissioner of Public Works, and a small man. "To hell with him and to hell with you'L Lynch the nigger. We'll lynch you, too, for being a friend of a nigger," said to have been uttered by a big, tall man As said above, the writer can readily see why a play with people who find lynching a pastime would not appeal to the Englishman, and we are wondering what manner of a reception will be given the production in this country. The writer suggests that if there is a lynching scene in the piece that it be made very realistic, as there is a possibility of it being termed "not true to life" by some of the theatre-goers who have been a part of a mob Shaw Talks About His New Play. Bernard Shaw in speaking of the censor's prohibition of "Bruno Posnet" in England made the following statement: "I shall allow the play to be performed in America. "I shall publish it. I should not do that if I shared the King's opinion of it. I do not know why the play has been declared unfit to exist. It is a very simple, even crude, melodrama with absoluteive no sexual interest whatever. It represents a little community of violent, cruel, sensual, ignorant, blasphemous, and bloodthirsty backwoodsmen, whose conception of manliness is mere brute puency, and whose favorite sport is lynching "Into this welter of crude, newspaperized savagery there suddenly comes a force, not mentioned, in 'The Merry Widow,' to which they give the name of God—the slightest regard for which they make it a point of honor to despise as mere weakness of character. That force, nevertheless, at the crisis which is the subject of the drama, makes them do fa will and not their own in a manner very amazing to themselves, and, I should hope, not altogether unadifying to the spectators. "I am given to understand that the introduction of this force into my play as a substitute for simple cupidities and concipences of 'The Merry Widow' is the feature that renders the play unfit for performance. It was precisely EDITED BY LESTER A. WALTON the feature which made the play worth writing to me. "What is called the struggle of a man with God is the most dramatic of all conflicts—in fact, the only one that makes a really good drama—but our royal rule is that the conflict with God cannot be permitted on the stage. Handel's 'Messiah', for instance, is unfit for performance in the theatre because the chorus bursts into fierce derision of the divinity. They shoot out their lips and wag their heads, reviling and killing Well, my hero had shout out his lip and wag his arm. He went to his salvation as St. Paul did, kicking against the spiders, and not at all as Mr. Peck-siff went to his damnation. And that, I understand, is why the King will not allow him to be exhibited on the stage in England. He could have been seduced by 'The Merry Widow' with imputity." P ALPHA COMEDY!FOUR Sitting: W. H.

It was the first time the management had presented a colored company to the white patrons, and doubt was expressed as to whether they would stand for a colored production. However, the show opened to a large audience, composed of some of the leading whites of the South, and the colored performers drew large crowds up to the closing performance. The success of the Whitney Stock Company proves that the Southern whites will accept colored musical productions. S. Tutt Whitney was by the management for department of the performers. The company had the pleasure of listening to Dr Booker T. Washington deliver an address on the "Education of the Negro," and the members were personally presented to the great educator.

BIRMINGHAM, Ala, June 19-On the evening of June 14, the Advance Club Minstrels gave a highly entertaining show at the Jefferson Theatre, and despite the fact that the show lasted two hours and thirty minutes, the production was void of long stage waits. The minstrel first part was well staged, representing a lawn party. The members of the chorus were seated around the various tables and were being served by waiters. The members of the chorus were dressed in black coats, white trousers and straw hats, while the end men, as waiters, were dressed in evening clothes. Transmagnificentannuality was very good. In his droll song, "I'm Goin' Away", his gestures were funny and he gave a dance that "brought down the house" "Sim Dimpsey's Visit" was given by Beaman, Malone and Thompson with considerable success. The buck dancing was most appreciated by Shafer and Harper in their act, "Breaking Into Society"ome feats by George Beiser and Dr A M Brown gave a monologue that lasted for twenty-five minutes in which he pleased his hearers with his original jokes. The performance was concluded with an after piece entitled the "Blackville Strutters' Ball" the entire company taking part. Dr J C Johnson as "Leary Perry Winkle, the Man with the Record" was good. Dr Brown as "Rebecca Ribootfoot, and J Beaman as "General Beasley" deserve special mention. A large audience witnessed the performance and the principal criticism was that the performance was too short. Mr J. Beamman had charge of the show.

HERE is a news item from the Boston correspondent of THE AGE: ton correspondent of THE Age: Jack Johnson, heavyweight champion pugilist of the world, sprang an innovation in Boston by appearing before an audience in the role of a lecturer. He gave a talk last Friday evening at Cypress Hall Cambridge, for the benefit of Rush Dixon Church. The attraction and the object even to liberal-minded Boston seemed incongruous, and people hereabouts are still debating the propriety of a church organization encouraging prizefighting by exhibiting gladiators. We agree with Boston that the propriety of prizefighter making an address on prizefighting in the interest of a church body should be questioned. With all due respect to the champion fighter of the world, there are many other deserving institutions for which a pugilist can give talks on the fistic art and his accomplishments than on behalf of the church. We have not been informed by our correspondent as to the champion's text before the religiously inclined gathering, but we feel sure he talked at some length about his career in the prize ring. But Jack Johnson should not be criticised for appearing as an attraction in a church. The pastor and the members of the congregation should be condemned for adopting such a course. Evidently the champion thought he was doing the church a great favor. It is most likely that in their zeal for collecting nickels and dimes the pastor and members temporarily forgot that there was a spiritual side which should never be overlooked. Surely the church has not come to the point where the idea of "get the money, no matter how you get it" is applied. Let the church remain free of any alliances that will tend to lower its high moral tone. Dispatches were sent throughout the United States that Champion Johnson was to box for the benefit of the church. It was not that bad, but it was bad enough. Greene Pitches Great Ball, But Com- mercial Leans. "Pete" Greene, the sensational young colored pitcher of the New York Public School Athletic League, did all in his power last Saturday to pitch his team—the Commercial High School of Brooklyn—to victory, and again win the championship of the league; but the Morris High School had something to say about the match, and in one of the hardest fought amateur games seen in New York the Morris players defeated Commercial High in a 12-inning game by the score of 3 to 2. The game was played at Washington Park before thousands of fans, and great interest was manifested from the beginning. Both Morris and Commercial were tied for first place in the league, and it meant the championship title for the winner. Commercial after twelve innings was forced to turn over the title to Morris. Both Greene and Yule pitched great ball for their respective teams. In the first six innings only eighteen boys faced Greene, who appeared to be in the best form he has shown this year. Not a hit was made off him in this time. Yule was doing nearly as well, and was showing particular strength when the bases were occupied. Things looked blue for Morris' rooters in the sixth, when Bascom, the first boy to the plate, slammed out a triple between Driscoll and Polley. Yule retepped to cope by making a sensational set of Baldie's scoaching drive Pancoast was safe on the grounder because Wendell tried to catch Bascom off third. "Pete" Greene stepped up as the man of the hour and made good by ripping off a Texas leaguer that scored his two teammates. The young colored twirler was pitching so well, however, that it seemed impossible for Morris even to score. In the eighth the chance came when Polley led off with a single. Kelley duplicated the feat, advancing him a base Wendell then turned off a pretty sacrifice which sent Polley and Kelley a notch nearer home. Grossman bunted a slow one along the first base line and on Bayer's fumble Polley came home. Taking advantage of the temporary ascension, Kelley tried to steal home. He was caught between bases, but while attempting to run him down "Pete" Greene, who was covering home plate, muffed the ball and Kelley tied the score. In the twelfth St. John opened with a double Driscoll and Elliife both fled out, but Polley again came to the rescue with his third hit, and that scored what proved to be the winning run.

Larry Hesterfer, the former slab artist for the Newark Eastern Leaguers pitched for the Valleys, but was not effective against the colored players. Had it not been for the extreme fast fielding of his teammates, the score would have reached the teens. This is the first defeat for the Orange Valley this season, and so Manager Harris is justly proud of his men. With the line up of Sunday he can meet any of the amateur and semi-professional teams in this vicinity, and would be pleased to hear from any desiring games on Saturday or Sunday. Pope Green pitched for the Athletics and treated the spectators to a rare exhibition of heady pitching. As usual formmy Washington was catching and hounding too in the fifth innings. Sam Hayes had made a pretty two base drive, sending Ransley home with the first tally, and Hayes had stolen third, Washington laid down a pretty bunt, and before the ball could be fielded Hayes was safe home. The game was won in the seventh inning, when with bingles by Ransley and Hayes and Washington, a two-sack drive by Bradford, a single by Smith, and a long fly by Stewart into deep centre, the Athletics tallied five runs, making a total of eight The Valleys made two runs in the third, one in the fifth and three in the sixth Jimmy Taggart, who was signed with the Jersey City "Skeeters," the first of the season, was put in to bat for Hesterfer in the last inning, and received quite an ovation from his white friends, but struck him out with three pitched balls the joy of the colored fans knew no bounds The line-up was Ransley, centre field, Epperson, second base, Hayes, shortstop, Washington, catcher, Bradford, left field, Smith, right field, Stewart, first base, Bland, third base, and Pope Green, pitcher, with Daley and Sparrow, subs Final score Athletics, 8, Orange Valleys, 6 Peculiar Baseball Law in Jersey City. A large crowd of baseball fans journeyed last Sunday afternoon to witness a match between the Royal Giants and one of the leading teams of that city. The fans were disappointed, however, for an injunction had been served on the manager of the park preventing a baseball game being played on Sunday. The city has never peculiar laws. While the authorities refused allow Sunday games in one section of the city, in other parts of the town matches were being pulled off. Thousands attended the game between the Jersey City and the Rochester nines, yet no injunction was served. --- The West Point Cavalry Detachment team went down before the Olympian Royal Giants of Boston in a well-contested game on Bunker Hill Day by a score of 14 to 10.
