One of the important topics under discussion is the extension of Church work in this country, Alaska, Cuba, and in Africa. Bishop Clinton plans to give more attention to the Gold Coast of Africa, and it is likely that a bishop will be sent to take charge of the work. Up to this time the W A J Zion Church has not devoted much attention to Africa. Rev J D Lasker presiding of Liberia, is anxious that more consideration be given that country, which was made known in an address by Bishop Walters, who has charge of the foreign King, King Joseph of the Kroo tribe and a friend from Cape Palms have what to consideration. At least $1000 is needed to carry on the work successfully about $1,500 annually has been committed by the Church in recent years.

NEW YORK, THURSDAY, AUGUST 12, 1909. Congressman Who Shot Negro Beaten With Own Cane CALLED MAN BAD NAME Thought Automobilists should Have Stopped When They Saw He Had Stenned From Curb. Social to THE NEW YORK AGE WASHINGTON, D. C. August 10—Representative J. Thomas Heilin, who March a year ago was the central figure in a shooting escapade in which he was arrested for shooting Lous Lumby, a Negro, has again come into the limelight for ruthlessness. However, this time he was given a whipping with his own cane by Richard Johnson, a government employee in a cate. Bystanders claim that Heilin attempted to give an exhibition of what a great fighter he is, but having left his gun at home made a poor showing. His opponent not only took his cane out of his hands, but used it in a devisive manner, the Congressman's head being the object of attack. According to reports, Heilin and Representative J. M James, of Kentucky, were walking along F street, near with whom an automobile owned by John M Dickson, of 1711 Fourteenth street northwest, came along Richard Johnson was in the automobile, and Mr Dickson at the steering wheel. The machine is said to have grazed Representative James' leg, and Representative Heilin was compelled to jump back a few inches. A few minutes later the two Southern Congressmen came across the automobile in front of a cafe and found the former occupants inside. It is said that Representative Heflin approached Mr. Johnson and called him an ugly man. The latter is reported as having said to the Alabama Congressman: "You have a reputation for being a big man, and I want an apology from you for calling me that name you did You have done a lot for your country, now do something for me." Mr. Johnson then took Representative Hefin's cane from him and struck him on the head several times before help came to the Congressman. Mr. Johnson's Version of the Incident. In speaking of the affair, Mr. Johnson gave out the following interview: "We were not exceeding the speed limit when we passed the two Congressmen. In fact, we were going rather slow. They objected because we did not come to a full stop when we saw they had stepped in and saw Mr. James taking a number of our machine, and when Dickson stopped, I asked why the number was being taken. They both became excited, abusive, and profane. The smaller man of the two said, 'I'm Representative Hefin, of Alabama, and I want to be treated with the proper respect' "I asked him, 'Are you the man with the gun-play reputation?' and he attempted to strike with his cane, using abusive language and calling me vile names all the while Dickson and I finally started off, and the two men walked up the street "I smarted under the epithets and vituperations applied to me, and when we reached the life where we intended diving, I did not eat. I asked Dickson to go to the Riggs House, for I surmised that the two men were going there, as they turned up Fifteenth street "In a quiet, gentlymany way, I approached Mr Heffin and told him I thought he had been unduly harsh and owed me an apology. He continued to call me vile names, and after making several attempts to strike me, he finally succeeded. I said to myself, 'Here where you get a good licking or prove yourself a man.' With that thought in mind I pitched in." TO HAVE ENDOWMENT INSURANCE. Decision Renched at Twenty-seventh Session of Grand Lodge of New York—Officer Elected. ROCHESTER, N. Y., August 9—The twenty-seventh session and Third Biennial session of District Grand Lodge No. 2 G U O O F, of the state of New York was held in the city of August 15 inclusive. There were forty-five delegates in attendance, representing a total membership of over five thousand. In substantial work accomplished for the good of the work is by far the most successful session ever held. The session opened in the day at 11 a.m. August 16, with an opening address by Reefer D. Edward Jackson of Empire Rochester. He very appropriately introduced Rey James W. Brown as Master of ceremonies. Rey Brown was at all times interesting and witty in his introduction of the several speakers. Mayor Edgerton, of Rochester, welcomed the delegates and visitors to the city. In his address he said that his father had been an active abolitionist had worked with Frederick Douglas and the leaders of that day for the emancipation. He called him a man who was still a friend of the abolitionists and because of his facts he was particularly pleased to have the pleasure to welcome the organization of Odd Felix to serve as Mayor. District Grand Master Rev. John C. DesVerey responded to the address of the Mayor and in his usual masterly style assured him that the order in the State through him accepted the welcome and assured him that such welcome was accepted in the spirit in which it was offered and that same would not be abused. He also spoke of the great grit and high aims of the order. Nathan Bette L. de Suscano, National Worthy Recorder of the Households was introduced and made a short but interesting speech and brought the gritting of the Households of the country in closing on behalf of District Grand Household No.1 of the state of New York she presented a beautiful gift to the District Grand Lodge No.1 District Grand Master DesVerney responded appropriately accepting the gift on behalf of the D. G. L. No.2 All the speakers was given the honors of the order. National Grand Auditor W David Binn was introduced and he made a short speech. He urged the delegates to talk well of what would be for the best interest of the empire state and to enact such legislation as would improve the Order and cause it to grow along the right lines, and that he brought the national greetings of the Order throughout the country, of more than two hundred thousand members District Grand Secretary Charles Sumner Lewis, of Brooklyn, then made an address in which he said that the Order in the state of New York was never before in such a new condition that there was a fifty-four financial Lodges with a total membership of over five thousand and that the membership was moving rapidly as there was no club that would soon be made into Lodges with a large membership. He also urged the delegates to attend strictly to business and attend all the sessions. Mrs. O. C. Hall made a short speech of welcome and on behalf of a committee of ladies presented the District Grand Master with a beautiful basket of cut flowers. The following was the committee of ladies: Mrs. O. C. Hall, Mrs M. Lee, Mrs A. A. C. Allen, Mrs C. Harding, Mrs D. E. Edward Jackson, Mrs B. M. Simms, and Mrs H. K. Arnold, all of Rochester. District Deputy Grand Master Joseph P. Smith, of Troy, was called upon to respond to the address of Mrs. Hall and did so in an able and appropriate short speech. The keys and hand was presented by Brother S. J. Johnson, of Empire Lodge, Rochester. Response was by District Grand Treasurer Thesus Poole, of Brooklyn whose speech was witty and elegant. The Master of ceremonies said that by the attitude of some of the delegates he thought that they had already got the keys to the hearts of some of the ladies. This closed the public session and the District Grand Master appointed James R. Dairy Recordings and following Committee on Credentials: W David Brown, S. G. Buchanan, J Thomas Johnston, Theodore C. De Mood and William H. Meyers. An important piece of legislation was the adoption of the endowment plan of insurance as recommended by District Grand Master Des Verney in his address. The proposition of endowment was presented by W David Brown who explained that it was desired to abreast of the times and to do that which would make the order a live progressive order in this state. The final details have not been worked out, but insured for a very small premium in an amount up to $300 which can be increased slightly up to $500 as it is indicated by a total membership of over five thousand which is growing rapidly that the same can be accomplished. The only incident to mar the otherwise harmonious session was the conduct of S Augustus Duncan delegate from Lodge No. 2648 (Frederick Douglas Lodge). He insulted the District Grand Master and the delegates and it was thought at one time that it would be necessary to erect him from the sion. As it was he was used by the District Grand Master until he made a public apology for his conduct. This Mr Duncan used to do unless he could make speech in connection with same and his manner and action was more and more insulting. It was sored that he be silenced during the balance of the session which was carried by a rate of 18 to 23. The session was honored by having present the Grand Secretary of America Hon James F. Needham, of Philadelphia who was present and presided at our session and installed the officers. Rev John C DesVerney was nominated for another term. Although now ending his sixth year as District Grand Master the present good feeling of the Order in the state is shown by the fact that he was nominated for another term by W. David Brown, grand auditor. James F. Adair then nominated W. David Brown for District Grand Master and was elected unanimously. The other officers elected were Deputy District Grand Master, Wm H. Mersesvack, Deputy District Grand Treasurer I. Thos. Johnson in New York City. Deputy District Grand Secretary Charles S. Lewis, Brooklyn Deputy District Secretary Broodle C. DeWond Serraume in 1911. Rev I. W Griffith was appointed District Grand Chaplain and Monz. Reives official correspondent for the Odd Fellows Journal Charles A. Pate was elected Fraternal Delegate to the District Grand Household of Ruth which meets in Binghamton on September 6 James F. Adal was elected Recording Secretary with out opposition. Business League Formed in Frankfort Frankfort, Ky. August 14 Charles H. Moore, National Organizer of the Negro Business League, addressed the citizens of this city at Bethel Baptist Church last week. At the close of his address a local league was formed. The following officers were elected: T. K. Robb, president; T. L. Brooks, vice-president; Prof. W. H. Clarose, secretary, and Prof. J. L. Law, treasurer. In Famous Brownsville Case Sometime in September COURT OF INQUIRY Busily Engaged since March Taking Testimony - Probable That Board Will Go to Brownsville. Social to Tug New York Ave. WASHINGTON, D.C. August 10 -- The Army Court of Inquiry which is busily engaged in the work of determining who shot up Brownsville on the night of August 13, 1906, will conclude its labors about the middle or the latter part of September. At this time the court of inquiry, under the chairmanship of Maj.-Gen. Wood, is busy reading up the records of the famous case. At the instance of the Secretary of War, Congress, before adjourning, appropriated $15,000 to meet the extraordinary expenses of the court, as it was found that additional funds were necessary to meet expenditures not chargeable against the current appropriations for the military establishment. The court has been specially charged to make a searching and most thorough investigation of the affair in all its phases, but particularly with reference to the alleged participation of members of the battalion of the 25th Infantry, stationed at Fort Brown at the time. That entire battalion was "discharged without honor" by President Roosevelt. That action was based mainly on the report of Inspector General Garlington of the army. He charged in effect that about ten or twelve of the colored soldiers took part in the said, that the remaining members of the battalion, about 150 in number, practically defeated the ends of justice by the suppression of evidence presumably within their knowledge. The affair has been investigated again and again by army officers, special commissions of the Department of Justice, the grand jury of Brownville, detectives and secret service men, and, lastly by a special committee of the Senate, without conclusive results as to the identity of the actual perpetrators of the outrage. On the representation of ex-Senator Foraker that it was unjust to punish all the members of the battalion for a crime that was attributed to less than one-eighth of their number, Congress passed an act at the last regular session providing for a reinvestigation of the affair by a regular military board and authorizing the commission, without prejudice of all the discharged soldiers shown to be innocent of participation in the raid or of having shielded any of the participants. All soldiers reinstated under this act will receive full pay and allowances from the date of discharge, and their service will be treated as continuous in regard to retirement and other benefits. On the other hand, if the pending investigation shows that any one of the soldiers was connected with the midnight raid he will be turned over to the proper authorities for prosecution and punishment. Court Has Been Busy Since Last March Since the court was appointed in March last it has devoted its entire time to a careful study of the evidence adduced at prior investigations, including that conducted by the Senate committee The evidence of each witness is separately read and digested by each member of the court and is then discussed by all in a general meeting, after which the essential points established are summarized and recorded for the future information and guidance of the court Owing to the large number of witnesses examined, including many of the soldiers and all civilians known to have any information on the subject, the records of evidence fill many large printed volumes. Daily meetings are held at the quarters of the court on New York avenue, near 17th street, and it is reported that fairly good progress is being made. So far all the sessions of the court have been secret, but it is expected that when the court begins taking oral testimony the doors will be opened to the public. There is good ground for the statement that the members of the court will visit Brownsville in a body in order to make a personal inspection of Fort Brown and that part of the city of Brownsville and the raiders. Then they may be made late in September, before the taking of new testimony. MARYLAND DEMOCRATS SPLIT. On Proposition to Pass Amendment Which Would Disfranchise Many Negro Voters. BALTIMORE Md. August 19. All the Democrats of Maryland are not in favor of the passage of the proposed suffrage amendment, which would mean the disfranchisement of many Negroes. An association has been formed here made up of independent Democrats who intend to work with the Republicans to defeat the obnoxious proposition. The following reasons have been advanced by the association for adopting such a course. "Because the amendment has been trained by a body of intense partisans, seeking chiefly the perpetuation of their power, officeholders. It is their evil purpose to disfranchise such a large body of voters that the present power of the independent voter will be put an end to, and Maryland will become a one-party state. "It is untrue to say that there is any danger of Negro combination in Maryland, for the Negro population is less than 18 per cent of the whole, and this proportion is constantly decreasing. We object to a perpetual privileged class created by the 'grandfather clause.' It is an American and undemocratic. The Democratic party has been pledged to insert an educational test in any suffrage amendment it would put before the people. This plebeia has been violated and a congregation school substituted under which intelligence is entirely disregarded. Finally, we oppose the amendment because we believe it to be directly contrary to the provisions of the Constitution of the United States, which is the supreme law in land in Maryland as elsewhere. The following officers were elected: Chairman, Douglas M. Wylie, treasurer; Henry C. Shurley; executive committee; Douglas M. Wylie, R. Brent, Keyser; Bernard N. Baker, Allan McLane, E. Parkin Keech, jr. John T Jarks, Henry C. Shurley, William H. Perkins, jr. Harry E. Mann, Leigh Bonsal, Lawrason Riggs, Stuart S Janney Washington Lenge Has Made Arrangements With Southeastern Passenger Association. Special to THE NEW YORK AGE. WASHINGTON, D. C., August 11.—Some new data has been given out by those in charge of the transportation of delegates to the Business League Convention, to be held in Louisville next week. The league has been able to secure rates from the Southeastern Passenger Association with regard to territory south of the Potomac, south of the Ohio and east of the Mississippi. The rates within the territory will be one and one half fares, plus fifty cents, and not a face and a third, as various correspondents have stated For the reason that the rates are only good south of the Potomac the special car which will convey the delegation from Washington and the East will start from Alexandra, Virginia, over the Chesapeake and Ohio Railway. It will leave that city at 4.30 p. m., Monday, August 16. A minimum of twenty persons is required in order that a Pullman may be obtained. Delegates from eastern states will have to arrive in Washington as early as 2 o'clock on the date specified, as the trolley ride to Alexandria will occupy an hour from the Union and at least another hour should be allowed by the delegates after their arrival in Alexandria for the writing of their tickets. Special certificates will be given for a full fare to Louisville and a half fare return. The writing of these certificates occupies about five minutes for each person, so that at least an hour will be required in Alexandria before the train departs for this work alone. This car will convey the delegation from Washington, headed by Mr. J. A. Lankford, vice-president of the National League, and Mr. W. Sidney Pittman, president of the local league. FIGHT IN NINTH ASSEMBLY Negroes Have Decided to Elect Member of Hire—Leader Opposes Blake. Bler of Three—Leader Oppose Banker There is trouble ahead for the leaders of the Ninth Assembly District where the Negro vote is approximately 1,600 out of the 2,200 enrolled Republicans. The Negroes in the district have made up their minds that they should have a member of their race as leader of the district and a red-hot primary fight is likely this fall A meeting of Negro voters in the district was held a few days ago and it was agreed to run Dr P A Johnson, of 203 West Thirty-third street, against the organization leader, Michael H. Blake. An executive committee, headed by Attorney Earl L. Lightbourne, has been appointed to conduct the campaign against Blake. No Opposition to Soldiers in Buffalo. BUFFALO, N. Y., August 10—Last week marked the first month of companies L. and H of the Second Battalion, 24th Infantry, at Fort Porter. No comment has been occasioned owing to the stationing of the troops in Buffalo and there as not likely to be any. The soldier in charge of Major I. Laggart who recently was asked if his soldiers had brought about any trouble by being stationed in Buffalo, and made the following reply. "My soldiers cause trouble! I hope not. Little prejudice eliminated here and there would be none of this so called trouble. There has not a man been put in the guardhouse because of intoxication since we have been here. Of course, there have been men confined in the guardhouse for matters arising in the post, but that is natural." President of Rust University Reigns CINCINNATI August 11—The Methodist Episcopal Freedmen's Aid Society directors will this week elect a successor to Rev Frank R English, president of Rust University, a large Methodist institution for Negroes, at Holly Springs, Mass. Bishop Moore will preside. Rev I English declares he was ordered to leave the town of Ethel, Miss, by a mob of 400 men, angry because he shook hands with a colored district superintendent at a colored conference, where he made an address. He did not stop at Ethel, but came to Cincinnati, resigning by telegraph on his way. He was elected president of Rust University only three weeks ago To Prefer Charges Against "Lily White" Postmaster. WASHINGTON, D. C. August 11 — Protests are to be made to the postmaster-general that in some towns in the South the "Lily White" postmasters are not any too zealous in seeing that the Negro residents receive their newspapers. The Ame has received a number of letters recently from the South in which its subscriber letters that very little consideration is given them wherever there is a "Lily White" postmaster. A thorough investigation is demanded. Has Largest Circulation PRICE, 5 CENTS NEGROES FOR FRENCH ARMY NEGROES FOR FRENCH ARMY France to Urge Enlistment of Americans From This Country HEARTY WELCOME Will be Given Members of Race Who Desire to Become Fighters for French Government COLONEL MANGIN Declares the Negro Makes Excellent Soldier and Has Shown Great Courage in Wars United States Dispatches a few days ago from Paris, France, announcing that the French Government is planning to form a big Negro army of no fewer than 200,000 men, and that the Negroes of the United States are to be urged by the authorities to join, has created wide discussion in this country The officials of the French Government at Washington, while not disposed to participate in an extended discussion on the subject, have admitted that the report that France contemplates organizing an army to consist of Negroes and that inducements will be made to American Negroes to enlist is true. Colonel Mangin, expert on African affairs, is credited with the idea, and has obtained the approval of the Minister of War. The plan will be placed before Parliament as soon as the session opens Negroes from the French West African colonies will also make up the black army. One of the principal themes for conversation among the Negroes of New York City since the Mangin idea was made known has been whether it would be advisable for the Negroes of the United States to enlist in the interest of France. Those who are anxious to join the army but refrain from enlisting in this country, owing to the prejudice against Negro soldiers in some parts of the United States, are jubilant over the prospects. French Army Officer Praises Negro Soldiers. Colonel Mangin says his experience has convinced him the Negro makes an excellent soldier, his staying qualities and loyalty being at least equal to those of the whites, while his courage never has been questioned. Writing in a military journal, Colonel Mangin adds that the American civil war proved this over and over, and that the Negro black race has been shown in intellectual pursuits, certainly this has not been the case where the bugle was sounding the charge. "In France, we make no differences, social or otherwise, because of the color of the skim," said Colonel Mangin, the "Negro always has developed rapidly. If he has a special love for show and a melodramatic desire to figure amid moving surroundings, no blame attaches to him. That is merely one of the qualities of his race, marking him as we are marked by other peculiarities "I say, let the American Negro or his comrades anywhere else who are suffering from neglect or inhuman distinctions come to France and join our colored army. Here he will find a welcome, an adequate living, a field for his peculiar abilities and great chances for the future." The subject is receiving much attention in France, because of the supplementary plan to join this army and the Arab troops trained under the same command, to provide 100,000 men, so that in case of our France could count on being able to land about 300,000 men on its own shores within twenty-four hours. To avoid the danger of keeping so many trained Arabs together in time of peace, the idea is to separate them by sending detachments to various points in the French West African possessions. It is estimated that the cost of the Negro army will be $14,000,000 a year and that of the Arab army $9,000,000, but if this will help in a great measure to solve the military situation of France, it is considered that these amounts will not be too large to pay. --- Missouri Phytoplank Elect Officern Missouri Phytibina Bleed Officers St. Louis; Mo.

Pittsburgh, Pa Aug 10 10 Employees of the Pittsburgh post office were shocked last week at the news of the death of one of their number. Mr Earl G Moseby. Mr Mosby was not only one of the most efficient officers here, but he was a representative young man who lived in Washington. Pa his native home, is a quiet little ideal residential place not quite two hours' ride from the city, the majority of whose members of both races represent the very best of our citizen ships. His parents Mr and Mrs J W Mosby reside at 125 Wes: Molden street, in the same house as his mother. The Mosby family is of the oldest and most representative counties in Washington. Mrs Mosby is proprietress of the leading hair store there, and owns valuable property in her home town, as well as in Canada, she is a woman of education, good business sense and Christian party. When first seen she refused talk before she was invited to Turtle Bay in Pittsburg could like of some of the personal characteristics and home life of a boy whose life in their midst had been so exemplary. A. EARL G. MOSBAY as had Earl's, she freely and affectionately pictured his home life from his earliest infancy to the time of his death.

Mrs. Mosby is a member of St. Paul A M E Church Earl, as he is familiarly called in his home town, was a mother's son in the truest sense. The most affectionate of letters a mother to a mother are the letters of this mother to her son. Letters written with the greatest care, asking his mother's advice just a few weeks before his illness, tell in no doubtful way of how he confided in his mother. She was his companion and confidential friend. They were seen together so much that prise has been pressed in some quarrel as his death did not prostrate her. In speaking of her bereavement. Mrs. Mosby naturally showed grief, but has borne with true Christian bravery her great loss. She said she did not consider her boy dead in the sense the term is usually used, and spoke of her again, as he was on a trip to another city. She concluded by saying he was only sleeping in the arms of Jesus. After graduating from the high school of his home city.

He always spoke in the most affectionate terms of his par- Just a few weeks prior to the illness he returned from a trip to Canada, where he and his mother spent a pleasant vacation.

DROPPING THE NEGRO. "The President's experiment would be interesting in any case, it is particularly so because of its daring and its novelty, proceeding from a Republican. The first response it has received is the announcement that the colored voters of Virginia will organize a party of their own. If their brethren at the North follow their example, Republicanism in its strongholds will find plenty to do without troubling itself about the solid South." This observation of the New York World on the political state of mind of the Negro is pertinent but premature. However, it must be said that the Negro does not believe that President Taft either approves or aids the "Lily Whites" of the South in their bold-faced elimination of the Negro Inasmuch, however, as the action of the "lily-whites" has come in response to the President's efforts for the organization of a vigorous Republican party in the South, it is for him to demonstate his opposition to their endangering treachery. The President's words in his speech before the North Carolina Society here in New York, his letter on the Maryland disfranchisement measure, reveal his position on the dropping of the Negro. But heedless of his words, the "lily-whites" of Texas, under Cecil Lyons and the white Republicans of Virginia, have proceeded to ignore his words, working unopposed their evil designs. Without the cognizance of the President, but claiming the sanction of his silent consent, they are causing Negroes throughout this country much skepticism. It is for the President, the leader of the party, to right these wrongs with the measure he has at his disposal. --- The Negro has always and must 68th name to furnish basic material for the republican party. The Negro has fur- nished the black wing of the grand old party. With that wing the party has always reached home. --- BONAPARTE WITH THE NEGRO. The Baltimore suit instituted by former Attorney-General Bonaparte against the constitutionality of the last legislature's grandfather clause, which has disfranchised nearly all the Negroes of Angie Arundel County, commands the ap proving attention of the entire Negro race. Three suits for damages of $5,000 each against the registers of election, have been brought, one of them by a petteran of the Civil War. The most encouraging cause for hope, however, lies in the fact that the suits have been brought by the able and astute attorney, who will leave no ground for the evasion of the issue. The issue involved is not only one of political life and death to the Negro, but to the Republican party of Maryland. The consequences of the favorable outcome of the suits will not only overturn all such make-shifts in the South, but will attack vitally the entire issue of Negro disfranchisement Harris Dixon of Vicksburg, a Southern spokesman, in a current magazine, admits that the Southern sham qualifying clauses are houses of cards. The Negro is meeting their provisions. They will stand neither the test of time nor of law. Therefore the Negro must not be discouraged by his political plight. Therein lies the hope of the Negro. His politics is in the m alestrom of readjustment. If America is to remain a republic, if the Southern States ever attain a "republican form of government," the Negro will have an political privilege. Meanwhile, we trust the Negroes of Maryland should leave no stone unturned in the prosecution of their cause. Neither money nor encouragement should be failing their good friend. Attorney Bonaparte. ATTEND THE BUSINESS LEAGUE. As the meeting of the National Negro Business League in Louisville, August 18, 19 and 20, approaches, we feel the more enthusiastic concerning its success, the more we feel it our duty to urge every Negro man and woman who possibly can to attend. Never yet have we met a visitor to the League meeting who has not been impressed, or who has regretted the expenditure of time and money. The inspiration of race pride, self-confidence and business success there gained cannot be found elsewhere. To the soul of any Negro doubting that his race has made actual progress, doubting the ability of the race to succeed, in doubt concerning the future, the Business League meeting will be an inspiring tone. To any negro in business, whether succeeding nobly or floundering, whether a veteran or a beginner, the Business League will be of help in the encouragement afforded through co-operation with his fellows. There are given the best lessons of successful and modern business methods by those who know from hard experience. To say nothing of the tremendous influence which the League exerts each year upon the public sentiment of the community it visits, it is nothing less than a great and pleasant Negro school in which are taught the principles of practical progress Incidentally, New York's delegates to Louisville are going to urge New York as the next meeting place. Especially is it incumbent then upon business men in this locality to attend and secure as is best and proper this meeting which means so much in money and encouragement. But wherever you are and whoever you are it will pay you many-fold to attend the meeting of the Business League --- THE AGE AND THE TIMES Many a time and oft we have called the attention of the race to the mischievous methods of our great contemporary, the New York Times, in its treatment of race matters. Agreeing with Hoke Smith at the conference of education in the South, the Times made the strange suspicious statement that the Negroes are lacking in capacity for self-elevation. The Times seized upon and distorted to the intended embarrassment of the Negro race every incident in connection with the Liberian commission. The resignation of the Baltimore member of the commission, an alleged discussion between the Southern officers of the commission squad as to the treatment of their prospective guests, a fight between black and white seamen, and the cable canard about the dissatisfaction of the Liberians over the personnel of the commission, all conducted to the Times' petty task of prejudicing opinion against the Negro. The Times ignored our vigorous remonstrances at the time, but adroitly waited, played for a supposedly vulnerable spot in THE ACE In an editorial last Sunday morning The Times thus covertly assails The Age under the caption, "A Lack of Race Pride" "In the columns of our contemporary, THE NEW YORK AGE, which professes to be devoted to the best interests of the Negro race, appears a large advertisement inviting its readers to buy seven cosmetic preparations, etc. The advertisement implies that Negroes should be anhamed of their own features and should by all means mask them into some resemblance to the Caucasian race We need make no defence to the unworthy insinuation as to our professions and our devotion to the interests of the Negro. Neither need we discuss the ethics of the use of cosmetics and their advertisement. The Negro imitates the Caucasian in the use of cosmetics, skin beautifiers and hair lotions. That the Negro has the same standards of acceptable appearance as other Americans, is forced upon him by economic and social conditions. That the Negro seeks to improve his appearance within reasonable limits, by no sort of logical reasoning, argues a lack of race pride but just the reverse. It is only the vainest of the white man's conceits that every Negro wants to be white. The effort of the Times is too clear It can not magnify the Negro's faults and lend its sanction to Southern oppression 364 days out of the year, and on the 365th day seek to cover its iniquitous policy by assailing an organ whose end and aim is Negro uplift --- OUT OF WHOLE CLOTH The "Boston Mud Scow" editor who, whenever he has to travel on behalf of himself—for he never travels on behalf of his race—always has to beg railroad fare to get to the place where race discord is to prevail. The chronic beggar has also the other characteristic habit of lying as for example, that Charles W Anderson, for orator was hooted down by the reception committee for the Tenth Cavalry Had Mr Anderson been suggested at any public meeting held he would have been chosen Mr Anglerson was a royally received guest of honor at the reception, occupying, with the Acting Mayor of New York, the place of honor on the rostrum and escorting the latter to the platform. Of course, the "mud scow" editor told the lie out of whole cloth. But it is now expected that he contribute his bad breath to helpful movements --- SOUTHERN NEGRO REPUBLICANS. We advise our brethren in the States of Georgia, South Carolina, Florida, Mississippi, Louisiana and Alabama to keep their grip on the Republican party. They should attend every township, county and State convention, and not be sidetracked. If they get careless in not attending local conventions they will soon be in the same position that the Negroes are in North Carolina and one or two other Southern States. We say again, keep your grip. CONNECTIONAL COUNCIL, WELCOME THE NEW YORK AGE extends a hearty welcome to the Connectional Council of the A. M. E. Zion Church now setting at Mother Zion To the bishops and general officers and to the executive committee of the Women's Home and Foreign Mission Society, we hope their stay will be both pleasant and productive Both great branches of the A. M. E. Church have our deep and lasting respect for both are doing great and necessary work. The Zion Church has done and is doing a work peculiarly its own in getting near to the hearts of the people. It belies in the attainment of progress where perfection is not possible; in the lifting by degrees. We sincerely hope that it has devised ways and means to extend its home mission work. The great cities of the country present fruittual fields, unlimited and undeveloped in this and every other metropolis there are great masses of churchless Negroes sinking in the slough of despond, whom no one has taught the way of redemption. Gospel meetings, while absolutely essential, must be joined with methods of uplifting them in their daily lives in order to reach the slums. To this work we hope that the Zion Church with others, will devote itself more largely even in the future than in the past. Again we had the leaders of Zion a corral welcome --- AN OTHERS SEE U.S. A few days ago there came to America a white man from South Africa, who has lived all his life in that country, and is at present a member of the Copetown Parhammen. He has taken careful pains to inspect the condition of the Negro in nearly every walk of life in America. After doing so, he states that the American Negro is at least a hundred years ahead of the Negro in South Africa. This statement may prove enlightening to those who also see that the Negro should leave America and return to Africa. --- BISHOP LAMPTON AGAIN. We regret to call attention again to this subject. We are forced to do so. In a recent editorial in the Chicago Conservator it is stated that Bishop Lampton knew nothing of any trouble in Greenville, Miss, before he left home to attend the Wilberforce commencement. The editor of The Conservator in making this statement has been imposed upon. It is not true. We have in our possession detailed facts which show that Bishop Lampton was aware of this trouble before he left home. We did not publish what we had in our office out of respect to Bishop Lampton and because we felt at the time that no good would be accomplished Bishop Lampton himself will not deny that he knew about the impending trouble when he left Greenville. But the most serious part of the editorial is this, and here again we think The Conservator has been imposed upon. The editorial says, "The letter purporting to have been written by him (Bishop Lampton) he knows nothing of, and its postmark bears the name of a station several hundred miles removed." Now here is a serious statement, and we are sorry that we are compelled to discuss it. Below we insert a letter written to citizens of Greenville over what purports to be Bishop Lampton's signature. We also reprint the letter signed by the white citizens of Greenville concerning Bishop Lampton's statement Rev. Stephenson Archer. Greenville, Miss Referring to your conversation at the depot in Greenville the morning I left, in which you advised me of the report that I had insulted or offended one of the young lady telephone operators, or friends of hers, I beg to say that I utterly disclaim having said or done anything intended to offend or insult the young lady or any of her friends, and sincerely regret if I used any expression which would bear such construction, and if so I cheerfully withdraw it and apologize for it "I have never asked for or stood for social recognition or equality. You have known me for a quarter of a century, know what my life has been and can bear me out in this. My home has always been in your community. I hope to spend the remainder of my life there. I believe that the South is the best place for my people, and I would feel that I was false to them and lacking in my duty as a Christian if I ever said or did anything to bring about race friction or cause bad feeling among the white people toward my race. "I earnestly request that you represent the matter in the right light to the community." "To the Public "We are glad to be able to say that the foregoing communication is satisfactory to those interested and the spirit and tone of it is such as to remove any hostility which may have existed to the return of E. W Lampton to Greenville Committee." Does Bishop Lampton mean to say that he did not write this letter, that this is all a forgery? If his name has been forged he gives it to the public to come out and say so. If this is a genuine letter, he owes it to the public to let it be known. There is something wrong somewhere. Either Bishop Lampton has been imposed upon or The Conservator has been imposed upon. Let us have the truth in either case. The truth will do no harm. THE NEGRO AND CENSUS SUPERIVIORUS. Within a few days Secretary Nagel and the Director of the National Census will have the task of selecting over three hundred supervisors who will have charge of the taking of the next census. It has recently been announced that in the Solid South half of the Supervisors will be Democrats, and of course white people Nineteen-twentieths of the Negroes in America who cast their ballots last Fall, North and South, voted for the present administration Nineteen twentieths of the Democrats in the South cast their ballots against the present administration. Will the man who voted against the present administration receive the saque consideration as the man who voted for it? That is an interesting question which will be answered within the next few days. Every President of the United States since the Emancipation has appointed a number of Negro Supervisors. Will the present administration act differently? If it be argued that it will bring Hobbie to appoint Negro Supervisors in the South why not appoint a half dozen in the Northern States? Secretary Nagel lives in St Louis, Mo., where the Negroes stood by him during the last cotton with their ballots. Will he rewild them? We shall see. --- the Chicago Conservator in its new dress with its fresh, up-to-date editorial and news policy, is worth reading. More than this it is worth supporting and we shall be surprised of the people of Chicago do not take advantage of the opportunity to read and pay for a wide awake, up-to-date Negro journal --- EDITORIAL AFTERTHOUGHTS Following hard upon the heels of Senator Stone's successful defense of his airtited dignity, Representative J Thomas Heflin, of Alabama, the knightly champion of Southern chivalry was beaten last Thursday night in a cafe over the head with his own cane by an irate Washingtonian whom he had cursed. Whether those Southern statesmen with dignity who have it in their heads or who get it over their heads predominate, we will not venture a guess One of our correspondents writes us that President Taft has certainly rendered the "Negro one commendable service, in bringing about a reduction of the tariff." Have the American people, including the Negro, reached this consummation in the "all one-body we spirit"? The "Farmer" faction holding the money and the "Gaines" faction holding the charter, the United Brothers of Friendship split in twain at their St Paul convention. When, when, will Negroes awake to the danger of high-sounding titles and the evil influence of names, but even at that the factions split logically, didn't they? Despite the fanciful newspaper scribe who has been sending out the misleading and disturbing stories about the opposition of Vermonters to the coming of the Tenth Cavalry, the fighting regiment has settled down in camp without the slightest friction. Which is the mightier the pen or the sword, is no longer a mooted question Napoleon Bonaparte attacked the enemies of the French Republic and all Europe by his feet. Napoleon Bonaparte has attacked in Maryland the disfans'users of the Negro and the entire South is at his throat, but wait BURLINGTON AND DROWNSVILLE. South Gets Satisfaction From Press Leonard, Sara Ohio Journal All this talk about the unwillingness of the good people of Burlington, Vt., to have the Tenth Cavalry quartered as near them as Fort Ethan Allen, turns out to have had no basis except an article in a Burlington newspaper, which has since explained that the story was largely a mistake. So the impression made upon the South, reflected in so many of the papers of that section, that New England is as violently prejudiced against the Negro soldier as is Brownville will, should be corrected at once. The Tenth Cavalry has a fine service record, and I no one has charged the individuals composing the dashing regiment with being undisciplined or lawless in their everyday conduct in time of peace. If they do overstep the line of solderly hearing occasionally, as their white brethren do, there are ample remedies at hand, with which race prejudice has nothing to do. The colored troopers received a cordial welcome, well meted, in New York the other day, but of course, they were merely passing through. If the colored man and brother were not sure of decent treatment in Vermont when he is temporarily settled there, whither could he turn—Daily Ohio State Journal. NEW CENSUS JODS. Appointments in Doubtful States. BEVERLY, MASS, August 9 — President Taft has fixed finally upon the policy he will follow with reference to census appointments in the South In the states which are so solidly Democrat the President will divide the appointment equally among the Democrats and Republicans. He will insist that the appointees shall not be active partisans, however, but capable men. From the so called "solid South" the President has picked out North Carolina Tennessee, Kentucky and Missouri as debatable States and will treat them on the same footing as Northern States, giving all of the census jobs to Republicans. He will insist in these States, however, that the same standard of objection and character of men shall obtain. The States where the division between Democrats and Republicans will be made are Virginia, South Carolina, Georgia, Florida Alabama, Mississippi, Arkansas, Louisiana and Texas. As to Virginia, the President is represented as believing that the bitterness or the recent primary light in that State between Henry St. George Tucker and Judge Mann for the Democratic nomination for Governor will give the Republicans an opportunity to make an excellent and encouraging showing at the polls in November. Anything he can do legitimately to help the party in the State, it is said, he will gladly do several Administration officers and possibly a Cabinet Minister or two will make speeches during the campaign. OPPOSITION TO BILLBOARD Howard Park Citizen's Association and Its Removal by Commissioners. Washington D. C. August 10—A stroke in the right direction was recently made by the Howard Park Citizen's Association composed of negro citizens of Droit Park and Howard University. The association not long ago asked the District Commissioners to have the ballot removed at what time the闸 entrance to Howard university. It was caused primarily by the reason that the ballot must be brought to the health, and being an Indian art gallery, is a vast all-Indian paper and all-Indian work. While the reasons for the removal of the闸 were not clear, others base many was the闸 reminder of the district. We will be brief, some into details. A notice in this book was advertised there in an annual bulletin and will string pussy-cats representing Ku Klux Klan and fighters engaged in criminal prosecution. Somehow or other the advertiser became so defaced that it had to be removed before it work was out. The tree was put out to the removed poster. Of course this was not the work or installation of the Howard Park citizens Association, as it was not then organized, but it is not out of course that some of the present members of the association still have a grudge against the billboard in this connection. The District Commissioners have revoked the permit for the billboard and ordered its removal. To Organize State Bar Association. Louisville Ky. August 10—Letters have been sent to the leading Negro lawyers of this state requesting that an expression he given as to the advisability of organizing a State Negro Bar Association during the session of the National Negro Business League Many of the answers have been favorable. STONE'S STATESMANSHIP, FISTIC. Baltimore Sun Saya Missouri Should Lead Porter's Reformation. For many years the Pullman porters have conducted all over this country as vast interstate traffic in impudence. They have no monopoly in this commodity, but combined with mulishness, superciliousness, snobishness, and general lack of sense, they have managed to work off more of it on the public than any single set of impudents in the nation. We are firm believers in state's rights as a rule but this is one subject with which it appears the national government can deal more efficiently. Wherefore the time has arrived for government control of Pullman porters. We look to see Senator Stone take up the subject and devote his forty-first power mind to its solution. The great constitutional lawyers of the Senate should be able to formulate a code of conduct and a series of laws that would provide for federal control of the Pullman porter, would regulate interstate impudence, and provide rules for settling disputes and determine the rights of travelers to get what they pay for without being bulldozed or insulted. Then the downrotten passengers may be able to travel in politeness, and peace - The Baltimore Sun WHAT THE NEGRO PRESS HAS TO SAY The example set by Mr. Ter Rease in making a complaint under the statute against Mr. Macwurft for drawing the color line in his theatre should be followed generally when discrimination is met with by colored Americans.

The way Judge Mann and Mr. Tucker are amusing each other may greatly injure the Republican party and may bring the white vote and most even division, and if we are not pledged to either party we can step in on election day and cast our votes and elect the man whom we think will do us the most good — The Newport News Star.

But we shall assume that the President and those in his administration are doing and how to do it and will do it. Cptions criticism of the administration in the absence of facts to sustain it is sometimes attached with dire results. We have a great deal of pro and not a little contempt for men who do not sort of relation to the truth. President Taft is a trained statesman, and a practical politician and it is hardly to be expected that he would willyfully make a tactical mistake in a game which he has been playing successfully for a great period of time. We are very fond of science New Rochelle (N.Y.) League Journal The present investigation into the death of James N. Sutton, U S M C. of this city, at the Naval Academy, Annapolis Md., two years ago, has undoubtedly established the fact that Sutton was numbered in a drunken bravely. This brings to mind very forcibly how a colored cadet was treated in that institution by a number of ruffians. Ears cut open, throat gushed brushed and manned on a horrible number and the outrage reigned. He was a poor, pointless black boy, no court of inquiry and no investigation of the cause was had, and there the matter ended. But not so in this case, for Sutton is rich and a man of great courage. The cause of his tragic death will be fully investigated. The Portland Advocate NATIONAL NEGRO JUBILEE Freeman Semi-Centennial Endorned. Memorial Institute in Africa. to the Editor of THE NEW YORK AGE. At the time Professor E. L. Blackshear was drawing the attention of the public to a semicentennial celebration, as given fully in your July 1 issue, a treat in exhibition of Negro skill and growth in industries, arts, crafts, sciences, another proposal was laid before a leader of his people, Booker I. Washington. This proposal in an elaborated form I now propose before you. The Judges of Emancipation affords a fitting time to call together both the white and Negro men in this country to unite in a true thanksgiving. The Blackshear appeals to the development made by the Negro in fifty years of liberty. Who will finance the exhibition which will make it a success and gain to the race? It is a grand gift and will require a vast outlay to make it a national success. A jubilee thanksgiving will not impress anyone to arouse local and general interest in the Negro as he is, as he has become. Since Abraham Lincoln in the hands of God set him free, showing in a grand assembly the contrast of the past and the actual present: an exhibition in the most natural suggestion. At the same time the jubilee thanksgiving offering for the first year to both white and colored to place the thank offering dollar in a common fund. This fund should be devoted to industrial education, scholarships and loans for handicapped Negro youths both male and female. This opens a door to the free-will offering of the nation. That every State, city or town of 1000 inhabitants be locally represented by a locally appointed agent or commissioner, both public funds interest and to arrange that in local celebration be held is necessary. This jubilee fund should be controlled by one general committee a committee composed of the true losers of the Negro race and might be drawn from representatives of the great leading bodies, the orders. And out of this common fund, which should realize many million dollars, the exhibition might become a reality without being a burden. But from the whole fund the thank-offering of both white and colored men and women—the jubilee fund—which should realign the museum with the institute. I suggest that a suitable portion he set aside to establish in Africa—in a sphere under good governmental oversight—say in British East Africa an industrial memorial institute, this institute to be under an efficient board. The museum of the natives of Africa a thorough industrial archive of lines of Hampton and Tuskegee Institutes—affording scope to energetic and enterprising American Negroes to become acquainted with Africa—to settle in its grand field and to form a link of progress with its yet undeveloped peo- In this way sir I conceive a true jubilee thanksgiving might bless the Negro here, who has reaped all the blessings from being planted on a foreign soul—and the Negro in Africa, who has been a powerful factor in the world's progress. In conclusion I should like Professor Blackshear to draw into his proposal the true jubilee spirit—at the same time let his exhibition stand as a memorial of what is in contrast with what was. I was a Negro not say in truth. I was a slave in the Grace of God I am become a man. Cordially yours, I De II Crookie Brooklyn N. Y.

Last winter, conditions in Liberia seemed to call for advice from without. Advice from America would not be inappropriate, for in 1829 the American Civilization Society put a tract to land from native chickens in Cape Messura for liberated slaves. Other settlements finally accepted the Republic of Liberia. It was modeled on that of the United States, with trading as the official language of the country. English Historians must be familiar and owners of land. Liberia about three hundred and forty-six of the African Atlantic coast, including the African colony of Sierra Leone, was with the French colony of the Louisiana coast. The area of Liberia is about that of Pennsylvania. The natural resources are very great but because of ignorant and careless utilization, the production is not what it should be. The constipation of Lord is very well administered by the Government, but not only by the Six months ago it was received the interior was in a state of well health and even that the Government was in danger of being misuse. On the basis of this report English manners are ordered orders from Liberia and instructed their patrons that it was unwarranted to ship them to the United States without permission again. As a matter of fact, with political demonstrations, there were no revolution and no non-constitutional turbulence—nothing of the Haitian Kulture and nothing that could be compared with conditions in the Dominican Republic. For conditions in the bankrupt and in no danger of bombing the United States and so every other country whose credit is in any degree good Liberia owes something like one million two hundred thousand dollars. Haitian's debt is about thirty millions. And Liberia has what Haitian has in its hands. It has developed a modern industrial and educational system. Honore of Liberia should be put up at attention the European powers we have would gladly but it is not easy to take the amount of the debt. The could be conditioned to be committed to an agreement to the section of U.S. but it was not the short of ready cash with which we agreed what it More Stuned Against Than Stuned America's Clear Duty-Independent. The Americo-Liberans have conducted their own affairs now for sixty years. During this time their internal troubles have been very slight, although the country has never had a standing army. There is no hostility between the Liberans and the native excepting a trivial result on the part of a coast tribe where smuggling prevails. Furthermore, the former state of intermittent warfare among the powerful tribe was practically ended years ago. The Liberans suspect that their present critical condition is due mainly to the aggression of certain too powerful to resist, and they seem anxious that the United States may understand that there is no turbulent element in their populace. They consider themselves full supporters of if they may have the disposition of Austria on their side, and expert advice on their situation. It is our clear duty to give them all the assistance they need, and to send them to receive. We will up the time of Venezuela when we suspect the wrong was it turned out that the right was there and that war was there and that war will be there. Should Have Been Thanked Having established that he is trained a longer time than Saito, Saito was probably illiterate by the time he formed whom he was recruited but one formal organization he had been dispatched with. His first assignment was to court without his thanks these days. He continued favoring the rank of officer. However, the commission is still in charge of some other institution to make remarriage to it dignify. He commissioned Saito thank the Missourian for asserting race supreme but look up the complainant until he personally improve. Just what would happen, however, should slap for slap be returned it is hard to imagine. That same is indignity in especially concrete — Brooklyn, Dally Eagle.

Hav: | ing satd this much by way of mtroduc- tion, I wish to speak briefly upon a | subject which 1 hope will speral to and interest the entire audience before which I stand. It 1s the essential qualifications ‘for successful missionary workers. “T think I speak advisedly when I say that there 12 no cause. which is of greater importance and of more far. feaching helpfulness than the cause 4 missions There is no cause that shoitfd appeal to and receive hberaily the sup- port of every right thinking and benevo- lent hearted person throughout the wide world than the cause of missions ‘This ts so because it has for its high aim the uphft, transformation and Chris uomzation of world-wide humanity For a task so great, so far-reachin and betieficent, the best qualified. aud highest order of workers 15 needed 1 want to speak especially of a treet quahfication which I regard as the most essential “First, there 15 intellectual qualifica- tion needed It 13 a gross mistake to think that anybody will do to. proclain the glad tidings and supply the varied requirements of the work in the all- unportant sphere of mussionary ¢n- deavor If a man can serve God and his fellow men im any degree in his ignorance, it 1s safe to say that, all vther thugs beiug equal, he will render a larger and more efficient service when Ins ngnoranice is thspeled by the dise - phne of intellectual training If God condescends to use our consecrated 1K- norance for His own glory and for the edification of our fellows, it 1 safe to Say that He_ will deigm to. employ to infimtely greater_advantage our conse- crated culture. It 1s a significant thing that when God wanted a missionary for the Gentiles, in the early days of Chris tianity, he selected Paul, a man of broad and varied scholarship, and it 1s also worthy of remark that he accomplished far more than all the other apostles, put together This work 1s far more diffi- cult than the forms of Christian service usually engaged in at home, and there- fore, demands the highest’ intellectual ability and the most thorough prepara tion. “The mission boards under the dire tion of the white churches are alive to this fact, consequently they have ar- ranged classes anil schools for the spe- cial preparation of those who desire to labor in this departmert’ of Chnstian activity We should follow their ex- ample in this We need to encourage and help these workers from among gur own people to secure the highest effi- ciency and the best equipment. Those who would engage in work of this kind should acquaint themselves with the work, its claims and sts needs; and they should familiarize themselves with the conditions which obtain in the mission field This knowledge may be secured by attending classes or schools which afford special training in this direction, and by reading missionary literature “Secondly, there 1s a spiritual qualt- fication needed This work 15 ecsential- ly spintual, and no amount of intellect no amount of culture will compensate for the lack of spintuality and dev tion Bonar nghtfully and beautifully says: “Thou must be true thyself If thou the truth wouldst teach, Thy soul must overflow If thou another soul wouldst reach.” “So, too, if we would perform a work which is spiritual, if we would undertake to develop the spiritual in others, we must be spiritual ourselves. We can only tell others of the love and grace of God strongly, effectively, fer- vently, if we have personally experi- enced that love and grace ourselves, we cay bring others “Before the apostles were fully fitted to go out and proclaim the glorious gospel and teach the religion of Jesus nist, the Savior of men, they ‘must tarry at Jerusalem until endowed with power from above We, too, if we would do successful missionary work, must get a spiritual baptism, 2 special enduement” Some one has said, ‘If che ministers keep the fire burning in the pulpit, the peoplé will come to see it burn and be warned by it.’ It 1s equally ‘rue of missionary workers. “Thirdly, there is a further qualifica- on which’ 1 would call personal conse. ration This is the great secret of effective and successful Christian work This 1s the secret of Paul's marvelously successful labors He consecrated his splendid personality with its manifold powers and possessions to God and His service This is revealed all through nis writings With all his wonderful nitellect, with all his magnificent cul- ure, he would have accomplished but ittle if he had stopped short_of this, Speak of the great work of Carey, of jucison, of Livingstone and others | The greare farce that wrough in the ac- -omphichment of their work was their ronsecrated personality Gel can only Io His best work through us when we fully and unreservedly “give ourselves 0 Him.” ‘When the Connectional Council con- yened Wednesday morning, there were pany bishops and general officers of the A M_E Zion Church on hand and in- fications pointed to a record breaking “THE NEW YORK AGEMEMOMSDAY, AUGUST 12, 1909.

It 1s |a very easy matter to criticise the Bishop for his appointments, but the criticisers have a very poor idea of the responsi- bihty of the Bishop “When your delegate, Brother J. T Jackson, left the conference he had not fixed upon a man for whom he was ready 10 ask On. Saturday morning, with the advice of Bishops Walters and Smith, I fixed upon one of our big men, and he agreed to accept the appointment, but some hours after he and my col- leagues had left for their homes, I re- ceived a telegram from him informing me that he had changed his mind. My advisers were gone and I was left alone to do the best I could with what I had I. found. that by making one or two changes in my plan of appointments I could send Brother R. M.
