"BRAVEST MAN"
Lays Greatest of Arctic Explorers,
"I Have Ever Known, Would
Not Go North Without Him."
Has Been Peary's Companion On All Nine Trips
—Born in Maryland—His Wife is Now in
New York Awaiting His Return.
"When Peary discovered
the Pole, I'll bet Matt. Henson was at his side. That big, husky colored man knows as much about the Arctic as any explorer, though of course he can't get it down" —Statement by Anthony Fiala, the noted Arctic explorer, in New York.
M. H.
This is the tribute which Anthony Fila, an Arctic explorer, himself of world-wide reputation, paid the Negro companion of Robert Edwin Peary on of his nine polar expeditions, including his last successful dash to the Pole. That this tribute does not do the Negro explorer too much honor is attested by the own words of Commander Peary himself, who, when asked before sailing from Oyster Bay on July 7, 1908, what he thought of the ship's husband, Matt Henson, said: "He is the bravest man I have ever known. Fear is not in his composition. I would not go North without him."
In his wireless telegram to the New York Times from Battle Harbor, Labrador, last Friday, September 10, the commander said in behalf of his companion, "My party might be regarded as ideal which had now come to realization—as loyal and responsive to my will as the fingers of my right hand. Four of them carried the technique of dogs, sledges, ice and cold as their heritage. Two of them, Hensen and Ootam, were, my companions to the furthest point three years before. All had blind confidence so long as I was with them and gave no thought for the morrow, sure that whatever happened I should somehow get them back to land. Henson in the field and Percy as steward were the same as ever, invaluable in their respective lines."
For twenty three years on every trip Mathew Henson has been the companion both in trials and triumphs of the most-noted of Arctic explorers. Before the sailing of the Roosevelt ship which carried the party to the north, and which is now returning to American waters and will arrive within a month, Commander Pearl Faye this biography of Henson, together with the roster of his entire crew.
Matthew Henson, Commander Peary's person, assists in the born of Negro care at Washington, D.C. August 8, 1857. He is 41 years or age. 2 inches to height, and weighs 180 pounds. At the early age of 18 he first came in touch with Commander Peary in his work in Nicaragua. Already Matt has knocked about considerably, having made a trip to China as cabin boy. He has been with Commander Peary on every one of his trips, and has been in Commander Peary's employ either in the tropical regions or at home almost continuously for the last twenty years. Since the last expedition he has remained aboard the Roosevelt in the capacity of ship's husband. Although a tropical origin, Matt is as much at home as the ship, as any one of the dark skimmers,狄摩 themselves, and is of valuable assistance in all the field work. Matt is married, and leaves a wife at his home in New York City anxiously awaiting his return.
The New York World speaks in the following glowing terms of the services and character of this Negro who reached the North Pole, with its discoverer,
THE NEW
MATTHEW HENSON ABOARD THE "ROOSEVELT"
under the caption: "Peary's Man Friday Whom Explorer Calls Bravest Man I Ever Knew"
AFRICAN UNION STIPS COMMO
Matt Henson has been the explorer's constant companion on all of his trips to the Far North.
Who is Matt Henson? He is Peary's man Friday. He is a crack shot, a blacksmith, a good carpenter, a better cook, can do more with a bunch of snapping, fighting sleigh dogs than the "huskies" themselves, can handle a boat, and even figure out "a day's walk" as the reckoning of a ship position at noon is called. He has been Peary's constant companion for twenty-three years, not only in the vast silences of the North, but in the steaming malaria lade tungles, of Nicaragua.
Henson is not a full-blooded Negro. He has a tinge of white blood in his veins. A native of the Eastern Shore of Maryland, he is as tough as drawn wire nails and as active as a fine steel spring He is an ideal type for arctic work Here is what Peary said of the faithful black "He is the bravest man I have ever known. Fear is not in his composition. I would not go North without him."
School Segregation Meets Stubborn Opposition—Attucks Home and Lawyer McGhee.
Special to THE NEW YORK AGR.
St. PAUL, Minn., September 14.—The first step in this city toward the segregations of colored school children has just been met and defeated by the colored people of St. Paul. The effort arose out of the opposition of the white parents of the Mattock School district to having their children attend school with the Negro children of the Attuck's Industrial Home nearby. The School Board then decided to divide on race lines the Mattock school. A colored teacher, Miss Johnson, of Duluth, separates rooms and playgrounds and a high board interning fence were provided. Thereupon the colored people almost as a unit, led by lawyer F. L. McGhee, arose in determined protest.
Mayor Lawlor was first won over by the delegation, including Rev. A. H. Lealted of St. Philip's Episcopal mission; Rev Horace Graves, of St. James' colored M. E. church; Dr. G. James, Sunday school superintendent of the colored Baptist church; Dr. Valdo Turner, Dr. J. W. Williams, Rev. Joseph Strong, R. C. Minor, J. H. Dillingham, F. B. Parker, grand master of the Brotherhood of Friendship; Joseph Sherwood, grand master of the colored Masonic order, Mrs. Lillian F. Turner, president of the state league of colored women's clubs, and F. L. McGhee.
The school board was next met by the delegation and shown Minnesota's drastic statute of 1877, in which sections 1402 and 1403 bear directly upon segregation. The first section makes liable to the injured party in the sum of $50 any school board officer who shall vote for, or being present when the vote is taken, shall fail to vote against, the exclusion of any pupil entitled to admittance to the public schools of that district.
Forbids Separation.
The next section provided that no district shall classify its pupils with reference to race, color, social condition or nationality. A district so offending shall be cut off from its appointee.
The result is Matlocks school will probably be care of by one teacher this coming year. It will not be divided. Colored children will not segregated—so say members of the school board. They are convinced that segregation be against the law. Thus far the colored protestants have day.
won the day
On the other hand the school board is convinced that a large proportion of the colored children in the Attucks home are non-residents of the school district.
Some are non-residents of the state.
An investigation will be made in each, and unless the child is entitled to school privileges in that district, he will be excluded. It is said there are children in the Attucks home from Georgia and from Texas.

CLEVELAND, O. September 14—It has just been learned that Mrs Ethel Chestwilly, the wife of Mr E. C. Williams, who goes to take charge of the High School in Washington, will teach in Tuskegee during the winter
AFRICAN UNION STIRS COMMONS
LIBERAL ORGAN, INDIA
Laments England's Approval of Race Inequality—Public Divided on Proposed Act.
LONDON, Eng, September 9—No question of colonial government has stirred the English public and parliament for many years as the union of the British colonies of South Africa has for the last fortnight. No phase of that many sided matter has received such attention, and the question of the franchise for the natives. The draft constitution adopted by Cape Colony, Orange River, Transvaal and Natal, while it does not provide for Negro or native disfranchisement, leaves the question open. The act does provide against native election to the federation parliament.
In Cape Colony, where there are many educated Negroes, and which is radically pro-English, the natives have the franchise, and the draft act gives to that colony the balance of power in the union. But in the three other and originally Boer colonies the natives have no franchise privileges, and if these ant Negro colonies should combine solidly they could muster the necessary two-thirds vote to repeal the native franchise in the Cape Colony. This act would be irrevocable by the imperial parliament, and hence have arisen the acrid debates and stubborn division in parliament. Although the Draft Act passed the second reading a few days ago it is being fought stubbornly by many eminent members who profess to see therein a radical change in England's policy. They declare England thus gives her sanction to face inequality and disfranchisement. Among these protestants in parliament, Sir Charles Dilke and Mr. Ellis Griffith are leaders
India, a great organ of the Liberal party, voices the sentiment of the opposition to the passage of the constitution as it now stands in the following pointed words:
"Regarded from any point of view, the situation is extraordinary. A scheme for South African Union is drawn up by representatives of the four colonies, approved by the Colonial Parliaments, and submitted in the form of a bill to the imperial legislature
"It contains two provisions which embody a principle hitherto unheard of in the British Empire, namely, that persons of color, persons not of European descent, shall be deprived not only the right to vote in the elections for the Union parliament, but also of the right to sit as elected."
the matter is here. The bodes does not leave it to the discretion of South Africa to decide whether Africans or Asiatics shall be not, now or in the future, be given the franchise or permitted to be in the Union parliament. That would be an arguable position, or an theory many times asserted during the debate, that South Africa must be given absolute freedom to manage its own affairs and to find its own solution of racial and other difficulties. What the bill does is to lay down that the colored citizens of the South African Union shall be deprived, apparently for all time, of the elementary rights of citizenship. The embodiment of this principle in an act of imperial legislation represents a change of the greatest possible moment in the relations between the colored races and the British Empire."

GAPRISON. THE YOUNG HEAD
Son of Great Abolitionist Jacob Jacques Defender of Negro Discrimination of 71.
LEXINGTON, Mass., September 13.—William Lloyd Garrison, one of the great Abolitionist, and uncle of Osward Garrison Villard, died at home in this town yesterday at the age of 71.
Mr. Garrison had been for six months, and some time since was operated on. Death was caused by an internal malady.
The death of Mr. Garry removes a man who was not only of historic name and of activity but a conspicuous figure in the stress circle.
By nature and inheritance, M.F. Garrison was a reformer tutor in a merchant, though he took no part in public affairs, either as a speaker or writer until several years after the death of his father in 1870. Later he wrote and spoke frequently in behalf of the Garrison, free trade, peace, fraternization of women, anti-intellectualism, and especially the single-tax agreement as inaugurated by Henry George. In a letter last year to the Boston Transcript he made a notable defense of and tribute to Booker T. Washington, against whom Boston Negro movements had essayed to pit him on the shore of the Negro's franchise.
Special to THE NEW YORK TIMES
GREENVILLE, S.C. September 13.—Superintendent E. L. Hughes, of this city's public schools, has come out in what is often termed a revolutionary speech for a compulsory education law for South Carolina, thus knowing the weight of his influence on the Swearing-in faction as against the Tillman faction. The State Department the followers of the State Education Superintendent and those of the "Fitchfork" Senator growing every year and the accession of this city to the superintendent to the state legislature has been enthusiastically welcomed. Swearing-in has been called a corner of the state, which is the most important it throughout the state opposing compulsory education on the score that it will mean Negro education and eventual Negro domination.
The following are in part the words of warning of Superintendent Hughes in his speech at Waterloo on Friday night:
"We have in our midst a sleeping giant who might arise some day, and, grappling the pillars, throw down the temple of our liberties till it lies a shapeless mass You cannot hold the Negro down without staying down, too. You can't hold him down and walk off. You must stay with him. The white race is the superior race, although God Almighty created 29 races and they are all His children I have no doubt of my race This is a white man's country I do not believe in colonizing of the Negro
'I do not believe that if you educate a Negro you spoil a farm hand, for this is not true. Raise the laborer and you will raise the standard of labor. It is a mistaken idea that labor is degrading. We have an example of what brain and brawn can do in our truck farms. It is better for all of us if we can uplift the lower race and make life a little better for them. The argument has been advanced that we are not yet ready for compulsory education. Other states have it and it is good for them, so why not ours?' The only way we can get the white children in the school is compulsion. All law is compulsion.
MINISTERS CONDEMN HOTEL-
KEEPER.
Dr Mason Was Made to Wait for Second Table by Propreter in Wisconsin.
KENOSHA, Wis. September 13—The ministers of the Wisconsin Conference of the Methodist Episcopal Church have taken a stand relative to the colors, due to a local hotel making Dr M C B Rason, secretary of the Freedman's Aid Society, wait for the second table service him.
Dr. Mason uttered the sentence he held in his mouth and when he asked the proprietor refused to serve him until all the white guests had eaten. This aroused a storm of protest from the ministers, who, during the session of the conference, passed a resolution condemning the action of the hotel keeper.
CLEVELAND, O. September 13 - At the Republican primaries last Tuesday, Thomas W Fleming was nominated as one of the six candidates for Councilman-at-Large, being the only Negro nominated Mr. Fleming's colored opponent was William Green, son of Hon John P Green. Mr. Fleming, however, won out by a big margin, easily defeating Mr Green. Both men are lawyers. Fleming had the advantage because of his wider acquaintance, and the fact that he was a candidate two years ago. He has been very active in local politics. Colored men throughout the city will work hard to secure his election in November. Mr. Fleming will served on the Republican State Executive Committee last fall.
1,000 PASSING IN WASHINGTON
Identity of Great Number of Negroes Unknown at Capital
NAVY AUDITOR TYLER
Tells, in Ohio State Journal Article, How Negroes Go For White in City's Life.
BOROUGH TO THE NEW YORK HALL
Columbus, O. September 13—In a recent issue of The Daily Ohio State Journal an article was published of which Ralph W. Tyler, auditor of the Navy, was author, wherein he made the charge that in Washington, D.C, there are at least one thousand Negroes who pass for white at all, times, and who never associate with members of their race.
The article has occasioned no little comment here, as the assumption is that if such a statement is true, there are hundreds of Negroes passing for white in other cities
The article in part is as follows
In Washington there are, no doubt, a greater number of people, arbitrarily classified as colored people, who are passing for white than in any other city on the American continent. It is estimated that there are one thousand colored people in Washington who pass for white at all times, and who never associate with or recognize those of their own race. And it is estimated that fully two thousand colored people of Washington occasionally pass for white to gain admission to theatres, cafes, or to secure "equal" consideration in the stores and shops.
"It would appear reasonable to presume that in those white people who sit at the same table, in a restaurant, or in a theatre with a colored person whom they assume is white or who serve in store or shop, with all the courtesy a genteel patron, a colored person whom they assume is white, there ought not to be kindled any feeling of sentiment, or aroused any feeling of discrimination should the same person be met later, in the same places, with the full knowledge that they are colored. But also for the varying means of the whif man. He has delight, delight, in biblical ignorance of what his companion is, but assumes an arm of righteous incarnation, wounded feelings when blissful ignorance is illuminated by the knowledge of what it is.
Race discrimination and race prejudice, I am sufficient of an optimist to believe, is not a disease of the heart, but rather of the brain. Down deep in the recesses of his heart, the white man harbors no hatred for the colored man because he is colored. This hatred, this race prejudice, is but the occupant of one of the brain cells, which, when the brain becomes as true as the heart, will disappear along with other idiosyncracies that education and progress have relegated to the past. For race prejudice as but an idiosyncracy
Some of the colored people of Washington, who are passing for white, ignore their own race uninterrupted, and assume a doubtful place among the proud Caucasians Some, in order to possess privileges that ought to be the unquestioned right of every man or woman claiming citizenship under, and allegiance to the constitution, only at times pass for white It is tragic, this being a man, upright and law-abiding, industrious and intelligent, this being a woman, possessing and practicing as the purity and culture of undefiled womanhood, and yet being dismine- against because, forsook through the veins runs a wee bit of Negro blood. Those who just occasionally pass for white, simply to secure just recognition, and the privileges the laws vouchsame, an American citizen, should not be censured highly. An unjust "scrimination, a forced and unjust segregation drives them to practice deception
Passing for White a Trying Experience.
"There are colored women in Wash- uen, whose skin is as fair as the lily and whose cheeks are withdrawn with the delicate pink of a ripened peach. There are some with skin as rich in color, and eyes as dreamy and tress- ing, straight and blu- as ever beautiful as the Hour as chatter, as s- wise, and as cultured as an English duchess, who, if amusement managers but knew that when at home they as- assume a place among their own people the colored race would ruthlessly cee from certain seats and restaurant keep- are would den, them a meal
"But it is an awful experience to pass for white. At all times fear,—the fear of detection haunts one. No thief, hungging his ill gotten gains, no murderer fleeing from city to city like a deer chased by the hounds passing night after night in but fitful slumbers ever was haunted more by fear of discovery or lived in greater suspense than the colored man or woman who passes for white.
Like a grum monster, this fear enters every scene at the theatre makes a comedy event a tragical one. It lurks in every dish served in the cafe, makes the most delicious desert as sour as vinegar or as bitter as gall. It sits beside one on the railroad train, through the South, and makes the palace car far more uncomfortable than a freight car. It is a constant companion remorseless, soulless and compassionateless "Those who turn their backs upon their own color, own race and own relatives to live a life of fear, of dread, and almost isolation just to pass for
white seven days in the week, while regarded with utter contempt by their colored race, really are to be pitted, when it is known how heavy is the burden they carry, and how much they suffer in silence"
ROOSEVELT WARNS WHITES
In Africa Against Injustice to Black-
Predicts Great Future for Country.
NAIROBI, British East Africa, September
1—Theodore Roosevelt and his son
Kerrit were the guests of honor at a
public banquet given at Nairobi. Frederick J Jackson, governor of British
East Africa, was chairman, and 178 persons sat at table
Mr Roosevelt, in reply to the toast proposed by Gov. Jackson, said
"I am immensely interested in the country and its possibilities as an abode for white men. Very large tracts are fit for a fine population and healthy and prosperous settlements, and it would be a calamity to neglect them.
"I am convinced that this country has a great agricultural and industrial future. It most certainly presents excellent openings for capitalists, and ample inducements should be offered them to come here. The homemaker and actual settler, and not the speculator, should be encouraged
"Remember that righteousness and our real ultimate self-interest demand that the blacks be treated justly. I have no patience with sentimentalists, and I think that sentimentality does more harm to individuals than brutality. Therefore, I believe in helping the missionary, of whatever creed, who is laboring sincerely and disinterestedly with practical good sense."
GOVERNOR NOEL'S IRE AROUSED
Mob Lynches Innocent Brother of Innocent Negro - Governor Investigates
JACKSON, Miss, September 13.—Governor Noel, of Mississippi, has at last had his fighting blood aroused against lynch law. He has ordered an investigation into the unjustifiable lynching last week at Duncan of a Negro who was assisting his innocent brother to escape. The brother was accused of having Policeman Marshall, of Clarksdale, and is now in jail here for safe keeping. It develops that the Negro did not kill the policeman, but that he was killed by the policeman who was firing from the opposite direction.
Gov Noel has notified the Sheriff of the county that he will have the War Department test the bullet and the pistol of the officer who is said to have killed the policeman to settle the controversy and clear the Negro who is innocent.
LILY WHITES DOOMED TO FAIL.
In Their Efforts To Banish Negroes From Government Service.
WASHINGTON, D C., September 14.—Current report here in Washington is to the effect that the Lily White Republicans of Louisiana, like the Lily White Republicans of Texas, are making an effort to exclude all colored persons holding office under the government from any continued recognition at the hands of President Taft.
The present efforts of the Louisiana Lily Whites seem to be directed against the continuation of Walter L. Cohen as Register of the Land Office in New Orleans. Fortunately, they are likely to have their labor for their pains, as President Taft has assured Mr. Cohen most definitely on one or two occasions and several of his friends as well, that it his intention to continue Mr. Cohen in his present position
If they should succeed in their purpose, it would mean that practically all the colored Republicans of Louisiana would be removed from the federal service, and none of the thinking colored people of Washington believe that it is President Taft's intention to comply with the wishes of these men in Louisiana who call them themselves Repuuncans and who speak more time fighting Negroes than they do trying to get new men into the Republican Party
COLLECTOR LOEB'S LATEST.

Virgil H Parks, an ex-owner of the Tenth Cavalry, was appointed on Sunday as a clerk in the Twelfth Division of the New York Custom House by Collector Loeb Mr Parks was certified by the Civil Service Commission Aly praiser of Parks as a stockholder and an Appraiser Wannamaker he could not be, although he was the head of the list Collector Loeb who had become greatly interested in the young man, was no currently disappointed at the failure to plead his case he arranged for his own offer of appointment promptly followed. The case of Mr Parks was brought to Collector Loeb by Collector of Interna. Lester Charles W Anderson. Since Collector Loeb has been in office about six months he has appointed three colored men as inspectors with a total of $2,500. This is a significant point of material importance and official prestige in the Empire City.
Employment to Negro Girls.
ATHENS, Tenn. September 9—It is rumored in Athens that the large hosiery mill being conducted here is considering the addition of a department in which colored girls can be employed to manipulate looping machines. The machines are used in closing the toes of stockings, etc. If the experiment proves to be a success, it is possible that colored girls and women may be employed in other institutions of similar kind throughout the South. There are few opportunities of this character offered to the colored people, and there is enthusiasm among them here in Athens because of the opportunity which it seems they are to have, to engage in this profitable employment.

Special to THE NEW YORK AGE.
AUGUSTA, Ga., September 14.—In the just closed session of the Georgia legislature a covert attempt was made by some Negro-hating malcontents to undo the work of the Georgia Railroad Strike Commission which settled the disastrous race strike of June in favor of the Negro. The bill as introduced required railroad companies to hire a white fireman or assistant to the engineer, "being not to prevent railroads from employing Negro firemen but as an additional to safeguard public travel." The conservative legislators immediately recognized the attempt to revive the black spectre and voicing the desire of their constituents, overwhelmed the proposal for the reconsideration of the commission's findings. The commission was composed of Hon Hilary A. Herbert, of Alabama, ex-Secretary of the Navy, Chancellor Barrows, of Georgia University, and Congressman Thomas Hardwick, of Georgia, the last of whom decided in favor of the strikers. When the majority's settlement of the situation, widely regarded as the most threatening and vital for the South and Negro since the Civil War, was threatened, ex-Secretary Herbert sent the following remarkable statement to the Augusta Chronicle:
"Partly because Chancellor. Barrow and I, who recently, as arbitrators of the question involved in this bill, did not publish any opinion giving the imminent why we found that the question was not read with certainty, public, and still more because abiding interest I have in this bill ask you to publish this communication: "I am an intense Southerner, to have fought alongside of Walt Whitman glorious brigade under Lee. Have you read the over the Negro is illustrated forty years, and have been, and am now, heart and soul with the people of Alabama, Georgia and other Southern States in their every struggle for the political supremacy of the white man. The completeness of our supremacy in the over the Negro is illustrated by the fact in the image at Atlanta, the right of the Negro to earn a living by working as locomotive fireman was argued and decided when he was not present or represented by counsel. The majority of the board decided that the Negro was competent, and that his application was safe, affixing as an addition that he should be paid the same price as the white fireman."
"It appears that for years on the Georgia Railroad, many of the firemen were Negroes working harmoniously under and in subordination to the engineers, who were the spring representatives from the last spring representatives from the North of the Bhoodof of Loc Firemen and Engineers appeared upon the scene. Then the trouble began, a strike came on; many rumors filled the air, and the firemen sentatives of the Federal Government went to Georgia and brought about an arbitration under the Ferdman Act.
The main issue was whether the Georgia Railroad should be permitted any longer to employ Negro firemen. The only way by which the Brotherhood could get rid of the Negroes was to show that they were not competent, and the wonderful record of the Georgia Railroad was that during a lifetime of sequestration only one passenger liner ever been killed. For eligibility a number of these years the board got in the face of this record, the task of training out the Negroes was boldly essayed. The strikers had with them an witnesses and an inmate in the litigation two officers of the L.I.F. & F.I. one from Toronto, Canada, the other from Chicago. These officers, with them many animals and books for their amusements which in the latter part of the board had little hearing on the case, and which, if I remember correctly, were little if any of the strikers counsel in argument. The strikers were represented by Mr. Dickson of Brownsville, national attorney, in Brothhead, who made a letter speech and their leading counsel was Mr. Arnold one of the foremost lawyers involved in Mat Cumming and Mr. Standee McDaniel Mat Cumming making the only speeches and I need not tell Georgia how I live.
All Engineers Admit Competency.
All Harlem Adults Amount to the chief witnesses for the warriors of the attack on the officers mostly from Warehouse Railroad, upon which no tracer ever lost his life by the carlosess of a freman. The testimony of many of those witnesses was the stereotyped answer that the assage white man was superior to the average Negro which, of course all know. Others testified more specifically that the white man made a better freman than the Negro all admitted however that some Negro were entirely competent, and two of them admitted that they had asked for particular Negroes as freman officers in the witness all of them intelligent and I believe truthful, was mainly from this opinion formed from (Continued on Page 8)

Complaint against this woman was made by Pastor Wisher to the agents and janitor. For this he was threatened and abused in the vilest language. The matter was brought to Court and the woman ordered to appear August 27. The Judge there gave her a severe reprimand, and she and others were ordered to move.

BOSTON WANTS N. N. B. L.
Po Convene in Hub Next Season—
Visitors Go Home
Regular Correspondence of the U.S. Acr.
Boston, Mass., September 11—There is a strong feeling among the people of Boston that the next meeting of the National Negro Business League should be held at the Hub. They insist that in the same way that Boston is the mother of great men, the home of great institutions, the home of great people, the reaching movements for the ultimate good of the Negro as well as for the nation, it is in no less degree the home and mother of the National Negro Business League an organization that represents many of the most important and thrifty and industry to the square such than any similar national organization ever instituted among colored people
The league will reach its tenth milestone, so to speak, next year, and its tenth anniversary should be celebrated in the city and home of its birth, is only one year away. That should be this. This is the argument the Hub people are raising in putting forward their claims in the matter. The feeling is about unanimous The Washington and anti-Washington forces are about a unit in their eager desire to have the tenth anniversary of the league's birth. Mr. Washington will visit Boston next month, and the executive committee of the league will meet in New York in January to decide upon the league's next meeting place. The people of Boston want their claims put before Mr. Washington when he visits the Hub, and they will have their claims placed but before the league when it convenes in New York.
The inability of Dr. Courtney, and Gilbert *H* Harris to attend the last meeting of the league in Louisville caused a great deal of dismay and wrath with their invitations to present to the league from the Governor of Massachusetts, the Mayor of Boston and the Chamber of Commerce to hold its tenth session and celebrate a tenth anniversary. Dr. John B Hall of Boston, has been appointed by the Grand Exalted Ruler of Elks as District Deputy for Massachusetts. The announcement of his appointment made him a member of the Lodge of which Dr. Hall is a member, which was held last week.

When Robert Edwin Peary found the
North Pole on April 6, 1909, Matthew
Henson, his faithful Negro assistant on
all mine of his Arctic trips, was by his
side. What Marshall Ney was to Na-
poleon, says a reliable literary friend
of Henson's, and what Friday was tc
Robinson Crusoe, says a great daily of
this city, Henson has been to Peary. As
ship husband, as a scout in the Geld,
Peary himself in his latest dispatch says
his services “have been invaluable.”
‘Whatever place and credit in the dis-
covery history may assign Henson,
‘Peary has given him due credit and
imperishable fame, when he said before
Weaving: “He is the bravest man I have
ever known. Fear is not in his com-
position. I would not go North without
him”
But Henson is only the last of a ong
line of Negroes who must be credited
ty impartial history in the exploration
and discovery of America, On our last
really importint expedition, that of Fre-
mont into the West in 1845, a free young
Negro accompanied the expedition, and,
according to the Georgia commander
himself, “performed his duty manfully
throughout.” Captain Clarke, of the
Lewis and Clarke expedition to Oregon
in 1805 and 1808 had a fearless and re-
sourceful Negro with him after whom
they named York's Dry River, now Cus-
ter’s Creek, in the Yellowstone. Damel
Boone had some Negroes with him on
his expeditions and on his settlement of
WKentugky in 1774. The lamented Dean
hale§, in his History of Kentucky, says:
“A Megro servant was killed, Captain
“Welty, one of the leaders of the party

Sealy Mdgreatest Negro name in Amer-
fscaa Waedvery, discovered Cibola, the
Mand of the Zuni Indians. now New
-Metleo, in 1539. Many histories credit
Galera De Vaca with this discovery,
vwhich both Cortez and Coronado had
vviinly sought, and in which the Negro
wioneer lost his life, but Bandelier has
shown quite conclusively that De Vaca
never saw New Mexico, and that he was
absent from the country at the time.
‘Three bundred Negroes accompanied
Cortez in 1523 on his celebrated expedi-
tions in Central and South America ac-
cording to George Parker Winship.
‘The same author tells of the Negroes
‘who accompanied Coronado on his im-
portant and difficult expedition to Kan-
325, A Negro slave on Coronado’s ex-
pedition of 1840 was the only man in
the country whom Hernando de Alar-
con could induce to carry a message
across the hostile Indian country to Cor-
onado in New Mexico in 1540 Captain
Arrelano, who discovered the ocean
route across the Pacific to Amenca in
1564-6, had his vessel “steered by a mu-
lattot pilot,” aceording to Professor
‘Chamberlain in the American Anthro-
pologist
Similarly we might continue at great
Jength narrating the exploits of the Ne-
gto pioneers with Balbog in the discov-
‘ery of the Pacific in 1513, with Hernan-
dez in Peru in 1830, in the founding of
tthe first city in the United States, St
Angustine, Fla. in 1565, and with Vas-
aquez De Ayllon in bis exploration and
settlement of the Virginia coast in 1528
Hodge, editor of the American Anthro
pologist, says in the New Series (vol 4,

1S COMPRTENCY RYTANTISIED
The review of the Georgia Kar'roat
Strike hy ex Secretary Hilary A Her
bert, a member “f the arbitration ro
mission, 1s one of the most remarkable
tributes to the industrial worth of the
Negro ever penned hy a Southern white
man Ne er, he says, was a contro-
verted fart mor: completely established
than the compet y of the Negro fire-
man
For seventy {se years the Georgia
railroad has been » operauon, and for
the last thirty-eight year there have
been Negro firemen -mployed, yer tut
one person has bees killed during all
this time by the road. The officials,
including the master mechanle and in-
‘spectors, testified not only as to the
eomplete satisfaction of the Negro fire-
tan, but that there hed beet ne con
= against their efficiency. Even the
cers themselves, witnesses for the
strikers, bad to admit they had.;good
black firemen, some even having asked
for them. Then, capping the climax of
overwhelming evidence in favor of the
Negro firemen, the officials of six other
Southern railroads testified that long ex-
perience had fully justified their em-
ployment in part of Negro firemen
Some of the latter'even declared the su-
‘periority of the Negro fireman because
of his endurance:
It is not surprising, therefore, that
this commission, having two of its three
‘members conservative Southerners,
should decide not to eliminate such
workmen or should award them equal
pay.
Mr. Herbert pertinently asked the
South what would she do with her 10,-
000,000 Negroes if they were not al-
lowed to do the work in which they
have proven their fitness. And when
the spokesmen for the strikers said,
“Drive them to the fields,” he rightly
appealed to the {armers if they realized
the tragic meaning of this for them.
The settlement of the Georgia railroad
strike by the brave and sensible South-
ern commissioner has given powerful
sanction to the Negro’s right to earn
a living. It not only placed high ap-
proval on his past services, but perma-
nent encouragement to his future oppor-
tunity
THE STORY OF TRE NEGRO.”
In the Outlook for September 4 ther
appears the first installment of a serie
of six articles by Dr. Booker T. Wash
ington, on the history of the Negro rac
in America. These articles, as it ap
pears from the announcement, are part
of a book, “The Story of the Negro,’
which it is understood 1s soon to be pub:
lished by Doubleday, Page & Company
There have been histories and his
tories of the Negro, most of them are
hard to read, and the facts they relate
are neither pretty nor pleasant
Most of the books about the Negrc
treat him as a kind or abstraction—a
problem that 1s to be solved by statis:
tics and by theories of one land or an-
other.
The Negro is always on the sociologi:
cal dissecting table. For a hundred
years he has suffered all the horrors of
vivistetion at the hands of his. friend-
and of his enemies. The results of the
vivisection have been drawn out into
endless volumes of discussion, until, of
the Negro as a human being, there is
scarcély a shred left.
During all this time most people have
forgotten that the Negro has been en-
gaged in mortal struggles to rise and
make himself a man—that, in short, he
has a history.
No one knows how to tell a story
better than Dr. Washington, and no
one knows better than he the story of
the Negro’s struggle to rise. It is safe
to say that in this book the Negro will
be presented, not as an object for dis-
section, but as a person—living, hoping,
aspiring, and, above all, getting on, mak-
ing his way in the world.
Dr Washington is fond of telling
white people and colored people that
he is proud of the race to which he
belongs It’s a good thing, on the whole,
that “The Story of the Negro” has been
written by a man who believes in his
own people, a man who says he wants
the world to know that he doesn't be-
long to a “down trodden,” but to an
uptreading race
It's all right to know the story of our
wrongs—and heaven knows that the
chapter in our history has been sufi
ciently exploited—but it is pleasanter
and more profitable to read of what we
have achieved
Dr Washington says the Negro has
made remarkable progress, greater than
any people in the world has made, in
the same space of time. It is safe to say
that the man who wrote “Up From
Slavery” will have a good, wholesome
and inspiring story to tell of the rise
of the American Negro

‘The Negroes of New York should
avail themselves of the Hudsoa-Fulton
celebration to show their state pride and
their gratitude for what the Empire
sate bas done for them. The celebra-
tion from September 25 till October 9
commemorates the founding of New
York in 1609 by the Dutch and the one
hundredth anniversary df Fulton's
steamboat on the Hudson,
From the earliest times New York
has been among the most cosmopolitan
and democratio of American settlements,
Though it was the Dutch ‘traders that
brought African slaves to Jamestown in
1619, it must be remembered that New
York was among the first to free her
slaves at the time of the Revolution.
Here among a host of knightly and de-
voted friends of the Negro, John Brown,
Frederick Douglass and Harriet Tub-
man lived and wrought. Taken all in
all, New York is to-day as tolerant as
law and an enlightened public sentiment
can make it. The Southern and foreign
immigrant and the unsettled parvenu
who have not as yet been assimilated
‘make the discrimination.
The Negro should teach bts children
the significance of the celebration. Re-
hearse to them the history of the state
and of the heroic struggles of her black
and white heroes Let them take part
in the parades and spectacles as other
children» Open wide your doors that
the strangers within the gates may enter
in. Show to the outside world that in
this cosmopolitan body politic that the
Negro 1s not a sulking, but a progressive,
part. This 1s the opportunity afforded
New York Negroes by the Hudson-Ful-
ton celebration
CUBA BY AN ENGLISHMAN.
Sir Harry Johnson, at the end of his
travel through Cuba, gives an encour:
aging account of the little republic's
progress under American intervention
Where Cuba was distracted and des
perate under Spain, she 1s now con:
tented and happy, formerly disease-rid-
den and dechning in population and in
industry, she 1s now healthy, receiving
immigrants and flourishing
Sir Harry pays a high tribute to the
Cuban Negro when he says “Alto-
gether, materially and socially, I have
felt that in Cuba I saw the American
Negro at his best so far as an average
can be struck Nowhere, of course, 1s
there the intellectual ‘development of
the United States Negro in his higher
types, on the other hand, I did not see
any real squalor, stupid barbarity, ag-
gressive noisiness or ill manners” But
his prophecy, if credible, 1s somewhat
discouraging: “Yet the Negro is losing
ground, politically and socially, and un-
less he is content with his present status
of farmer laborer, petty tradesman,
minor employee and domestic servant,
there will arise a ‘colour’ question here
as in the United States.”
Here, we believe, the Englishman 1s
mistaken. Nowhere in Spamsh coun-
tries is there the antipathy to Negro in-
dustrial equality found in our own
South Despite the increasing Amer:
can immigration, the greater natural in-
crease of Cuban Negroes will likely
keep pace with the Caucasian increase.
One-third of Cuba's 2,000,000 population
is classed as colored, and actually one-
half or more have Negro blood in their
veins. They have proven their superi-
ority, as Sir Harry states, in war They
will eventually maintain an equality in
the arts of peace.

those operations were to be performed
they were lined up against the walls of
‘the respective hospitals in aghich the

tors ‘Phese ‘stutements carry the fmpu-
tatlon of pordidy and deception, not only
fob the part of the hospital authorities

treated as most graciously, but also on
the part of the Chairman of the Surgi-
cal Sections and the local hopltal com-
mittee. But the Implied charge. is ut-

he was told by the Hoston hospital au-

be expected that we would be accorded
privileges withheld from all other out-

"MR. LODE OF KOAL," A BROADWAY SHOW
FTER having witnessed a performance of "Mr Lode of Koal" at the Garrick Theatre, St Louis, last week the writer does not hesitate to state that Bert A Williams' new show comes nearest to bearing the earmarks of a real Broadway production than any other musical piece ever presented by a colored company. When the show reaches Broadway it should enjoy a long and successful life. When in St Louis last week "Mr Lode of Koal" was in the second week of its existence, yet the show was given with a degree of smoothness that agreeably surprises. Of course, as is the case with all new shows, many changes are in order. However, they can be easily made. There is entirely too much talk, which becomes monotonous at times, this being particularly true in the first act. Then there are several characters that could be easily eliminated, and two additional catchy songs would help to make the production one that can vie with any musical show in the country, which is saying much
"Mr. Lode of Koal" is a production entirely different from any colored show ever put on the boards. In writing the book Messrs Shipp and Rogers were not in a serious mood, having put together a vehicle that is known on Broadway as a children's show. It is mythical in its thematic construction and appeals greatly to the imagination, the story dealing with one Chestor A. Lode, who goes to sleep in the first act dreams in the second act and wakes up in the third. There is much what might be termed character to the show. Do not attend a performance with a show to seeing the male members strutting about in up-to-date clothes or the male contingent posing in Fifth avenue creations. If you do you will be greatly disappointed. The costumes, while elegant and in the same class with the scenery—good to look upon—particularly those of the young women are in keeping with the boundaries of the piece. In writing women also show up strung this season from a pleasing to the eye standpoint.
J. Rosamond Johnson has been as successful with the composing of the music as have the writers of the book. He has done him-it proud, some of his ensemble number being out of the ordinary, especially the opening number of the second it, which is one of the best things in the chorus is because it is so pleasing to the pieces in the lams been in and who strong and well and Writes and Walks uses.
All for the success of Bert A. Writes ever in his career agrees with them. In new the comedian has up to the proportion of being one of the few that That he is responsible for twice as many laughs as he has been guilty before is due to the fact that the stage twice is long to Mr. L. L. Koal."
A question being asked by a jury is whether George W. Walker the other talented member of Williams and Walker, who has returned from the stage for a year, is greatly missed. There is not a theatre guest, who has seen the well-known team who does not have a musical picture of the two comedians working together. After appearing successfully as a team for over ten years, it would be unnatural for us at this time to think of Williams without associating the name of Walker When Bert Williams made his initial appearance in the first act the writer at once thought of Walker, as he has been seeing the two make their first entrance together for years. But the writers have so constructed the piece that as the momentsly Bert Williams and his personality come to the fore, and from then until the drop of the curtain in the last act he is, to use the lines in the show 'the real big smoke' and proves that he is capable of starting alone successfully.
The cast supporting Mr Williams is a strong one Alex Rogers, as "Buggy," has the second part of importance in the show and makes good in it. Tom Brown's presence in the company, playing the part of "Gomit," greatly strengthens the cast. Then there are J Leubrie Hill, Surene Nesavar, Lotte Grady, Hattie McIntosh, Hattie Hopkins, Matt Housley, James Lightfoot, Charles Moore, and a host of others. Individual mention of the rest of the members of the cast will be made in the New York review of the show.
Bert Williams' principal songs are "My Old Man," "The Christening" and "That a Plenty," and he "goes big" in all of them Jose DeVance songs "The Harbor of Lost Dreams" in the first act. She as a young soprano who bears watching, and if she continues to improve will some day gain the reputation of being one of our leading solos. Ada Guguese gets all that is possible out of "To Far Off Mandelay," but we fear the song will never be a strong one the writer has a similar opinion of "By Gone Days in Dixie" which is sung by Henry Troy. New numbers should be substituted for the two songs herein referred to. We are unable to find an excuse for putting "song about
Date in the second act, which is entirely out of keeping with the environment Brown and Nevarro appear in a song "Chink, Chink, Chink, Chink, Chimman," in which they introduce their Chinese specialty, which is one of the clearest bits of work done in the show Miss Nevarro also appears in several characteristic dances, which are productive of applause. The writer was pleased to note that many of the members of the chorus have been given bits to do, among whom is Arthur Payne, who has a bass solo to which he does justice.
The "Lode of Koal" Company is made up of the following persons this season Bert A Williams, Jesse A Shipp, Alex Kogers, Tom Brown, J Leubrich Hill, Charles Moore, Henry Tray, James Lightfoot, William C Fkins, Lloyd Gibbs Arthur Payne, Matt Housley, Chester Hawks, J M Thomas, Charles Eoster, W H Holland, R M Cooper, L H Saubury, G Henry Tapley, Walter Hillard, Sterling Rex, Edward Loliver, Clarence Redd, William Chapell, Charles McKenzie, Siren Neyarro, Hattie McIntosh, Lottie Grady, Hattie Hopkins, Minnie Brown, Lavania Rogers, Inez Clough, Josephine DeVance, Ada Guguese, Miss Gonez, Maggie Davis, Ida Day, Adah Bankes, Mrs A Payne, Jessie Ellis, Katie Jones, Bessie Vaughn, Effie King, May York, Ence Lewis, Anta Bush, Bessie Thomas and Florence Brown The executive staff consists of Jack Shoemaker, manager, Clarence D Parker, business manager, Jesse A Shipp, stage manager, William C Ellkins, chorus director, William Spedick, trap drummer, Harry S Stafford, master mechanic, Robert R Craig, master of properties, D F Reeler, electrician J A Shipp, Jr master of transportation, and Lizzie De Masey, wardrobe mistress

IN THE SPORTING WORLD
(BY LESTER A WALTON)
Jack Johnson a Wise Old Owl.
INCBC Champion Jack Johnson so easily disposed of N. Kaufman in the West last week one would be led to presume that the majority of sporting writers have been devoting most of their time to the Cook-Perry controversy about the North Pole so silent have they been about a probable match between Johnson and Jeffries. The ten round bout last Thursday has consumed the sporting writers andighting enthusiasts of two things: First, that Johnson is a great ring general, and secondly, that when he is 'trying' and takes things seriously he can whip any man to today who claims to be a close artist—jeffries included
While Johnson may not have the money, financial properties or a Carrier license, he must be given credit for being a wise old oil. One thing about him is that he has made up his mind to tighten according to his own ideas and not in the manner oftimes desired by the white writers and the public progo is lost words, he presumes that socially, and business and will not this present state rights, etc., not according to his way of thinking.
Although the champion had Kaufman at his mercy at all times, we do not think he entered the ring to score a kickout. He not planned to give a great chance in what he could at this time. And the crowd favored Kaufman over we all. I hope we all know that he is a man of great character.
We at the school. He has done
the training in any of them.
I will give you a copy easy has
when the day is very early in the

match we will train and light accordingly.

signable surprise party.

Is Colby the crack rightfielder of the Detroit baseball team has one more come into the time light for rufusism. About a year ago he resigned an aged colored man who asked him not to walk a newly made street crossing. Last week Colby assaulted the old watchman at the Euclid Hotel in Cleveland, and a warrant was issued charging assault. From tretet the wrist comes that the matter has been patched up the Detroit Club agreeing to pay the expenses of George Stantell, the right watchman. A certain sum will all he given him for having let the ball player beat him up.

Prof. Mimma's Successful Excursion
of the largest and most successful
expedition of the season was that of Prof. Mimma Mimma to Orkney Beach
township three miles up Long Island Sound
in Labor Day Fair and it was the most
pleasant excursion taken from this city
to the summer. His police service
worked like a clam. The day was pleas
and it brought out many who had not
been on the water for years.
Mimma led the Mimma for the
expedition, the only colored man in the city
to undertake such a large affair and
make a success of it single handed.
Plans have already been made by him
for his second monster excursion next
year, and he says it will surpass the one
given this year. His mentor wishes it to be known
that it was not his fault that the musi-
clans did not play at the grove. As soon as the boat reached shore Prof Mimms and his officers went ashore. The musicians played one serenade and then disbanded. Prof Mimms had a deal of annoyance and embarrassment. Some of the people were a little angry about it, but it can be readily seen that it was not the fault of the professor. He did his part to make the excursion a success. However, the people have the assurance of Prof Mimms that nothing like the above will ever occur again. Prof. Mimms announces his fancy and evening dress ball at Manhattan Casino, where he will arrive on Friday. October 15. Tickets. Music by the New Amsterdam Orchestra.

The sad lesson learned in noting the efforts of this boy to raise money to get his patent is our difficulty in receiving help from each other for such purposes. According to the document issued on every Negro of wealth he could think of in Pittsburg, and was refused by all.
---
Having heard of a white man who advanced money to a boy on drawings for a self-cleaning cupidler, Arter called on the same man, and a few days thereafter received $100 from the country. He was using inventions of Pittsburgh boys. White men will control their management and will in all probability receive, the greatest benefits. All notes for publication in THE AOE should be sent to 404 Kirkpatrick street to inform publication in the current issue. Nothing should reach this place each Friday.

a novel. The story of his struggles
through slavery, poverty and obscurity
assisted by sheer force of character, native strength of mind and heart, is one
that could easily be woven into a thrill-
ing story that would pass as good lit-
During his twenty-five years of church work in Chicago he has established three strong congregations. Each church that he occupied has speedily outgrown its membership and a community of membership and an enlarged church office became imperative. His present church is entirely out of debt, but is too well for the throng of people that eagerly attend the ministry, and after a period of occupancy a new church being planned for.
F. Thomas belongs to the heroic group of churchmen that is now fast pass away. He enlisted in the Union army during the War of the Rebellion and served until 1863. During the bloody war of reconstruction he took a heroic role in fighting the horrors that attended that period of American history. He has always been a leader in building up and extending the apostle fraternity.
On this anniversary occasion promul-

classes of Chicago citizens assembled

Dr. A. J. Carey.
Music was rendered by the choir and special solos by Madam Blanche Wade Dorsey, Miss Pearl Hoover, Miss Mayme B. Thomas and Mrs. W G Hynes, of Nashville, Tenn.
The crowning event of the occasion was the conferring of the degree of D D. the presiding of the course of money and forty-two American beauties by the ladies of the church.
Following the platform exercises a choice collation was spread in the parlor of the church, which formed a fitting conclusion to a most interesting occasion
HARTFORD TEACHERS' SCHOLARSHIP.
To Columbia for Faithful Work—Successful Pastor Honored.
Regular Correspondence of The Aor
HARTFORD, Conn., September 12—Miss Mary F. Anderson, one of the highly esteemed young women of this city, has received a scholarship for a special teaching course at Columbia in New York. Miss Anderson was born in Hartford, educated in the public schools, and graduated from the Hartford High School and the New Britain State Normal School. Through the recommendation of her teachers she was chosen to be a teacher of the Calhoun School, Calhoun. Ala. For ten years she worked faithfully in this school. It is this excellent teacher that has inspired her. She deserves. Miss Thorne, the principal at Calhoun, realizing her worth, used her influence to secure the scholarship for her. Miss Anderson will leave for New York next week. It is the unanimous wish of her many friends and acquaintances that he remains will continue to support her.
Dr. Matilda Althea Johnson, of Philadelphia, Pa., has been visiting our city and surrounding towns the past week, the guest of her aunt of Wolcott street, resident of our city, being a graduate from the Grammar and High Schools here. A quartet of Atlanta students, with Manager B. W. Burke, gave a concert Friday evening, September 10, at the Grammar Church. The musical program was made up largely of old familiar plantation melodies, which were effectively sung by the quartet. A lullaby composed by Professor John Work, of Flask University, was one of the works in the constats of F. V. Wilson, R. M. Smith, A. G. Gill and W. H. Watson.
Miss Jesse Peters, of Brooklyn, N. Y., is the guest of Miss Elizabeth Minor. The Union Baptist Church was the scene of one of the most interesting events in September 9, a day evening, September 9. A very large audience filled the vestry, gathering to show their appreciation for the pastor, the Rev. Walter Gay, who completed his ninth year of service as pastor last July. As a token of their high regard for him the vestry was prepared for the speeches by Rev. Johnson of St. Monica P. E. Mission; W. A. Harrod of Shiloh Baptist Church, and Dr. S. W. Swain, of Zion A. M. E. Church, Rev. Gay was called to the front and presented with a large silver loving cup. Mr Gay was not aware of the nature of the gathering, and was so surprised that he could hardly respond to speeches and the good things said of him.
Mr Gay came to Hartford in 1900 as pastor of the Union Baptist Church, who were worshipping in the Wooster Street Chapel. They now have a fine office on an attorney street. Deacon Charles H. Phillips was master of ceremonies, assisted by Deacons Deshmonde, Willis, Thomas and Blackwell. The indices of the church presented Mrs. Gay with a valuable dress pattern Mrs. Russell made the presentation

ASBURY MORTGAGE BURNING.
Mayor Appleby Speaks at Notable Zion Event—Bishop Clinton Present.
ASSURY PARK, N. J., Sept 10—Monday evening, August 23, was a great event in the history of Zion A.M. E. Church, a Jewish community, among others, the debt was wiped out and the mortgage burned. Appropriate exercises were held.
Among the speakers were Hon. F. Frank Appleby, Mayor of the city, and Hon. Thomas Winkler, president of the City Council, who made good short addresses and complimented the pastor, W. Bishaw, a bishop of Walters Hall, and W. Clinton at his best and his address was full of spiritual balm. The history of the church was presented by that Jersey orator, John H Richardson, in pleasing eloquence. The musical part of the exercises was superb. Mrs. C. T. Harris, soprano, and Mine. W. Johnson, prime soprano, with Te-Wanka, the famous dramatist in the "Wild Gypsy," gave a high-class concert in conjunction with the widely known choir of Zion. Mrs Marv Hubbert, who had charge of the affairs, lighted the mortgage, while Thus. Harris, soprano, held it and gave a short address. Other speakers were Rev. W. H. Wallace of Mt. Morish Baptist Church; Father Jensen, of St. Augustine Episcopal Church; T. E. Franklin, Rev. C. D. Hazel, Dr. J. John H White and Rev Harrison V. John A Herbert. The banquet was extended to Bishart Clinton and Mrs. Clinton, and the pastor, Rev. J B Walters.
MISSOURI NEGROES SLATED
Demand that Pre-election Patronage Promises Kept—Negro Police.
May 13, September 13 — Albert Burgess, assistant state prosecuting the regime of Zeigenheim, has been endorsed by the City Republican Central Committee for assistant state prosecuting attorney, and from indications will get the position. Of course some opposition is being encountered by some whites who have forgotten their promises and want to get everything, little thinking there is to be another election, but the Republican Central Committee is insistent that the Burgess appointment be made. Bradley, who did effective work during the paigns, has also been endorsed for an important position in one of the city departments, which he, too, will likely get after a hard fight. A few minor appointments have been already made.
The state officials do not seem to be even as active in keeping their party pledges as the St Louis leaders Governor Hadley is said to have declared himself enthusiastically in favor of having uniformed police in St. Louis, as there are about six plain clothes officers who were appointed under the Democratic administration. In Missouri, however, the Republicans appear at times to be easily frightened at what the Democrats will say about them if they keep their pledges to the Negro voters.
Shortly after election the Democratic papers drew a dark picture of how St. Louis would be with Negro police in uniform, and although they have colored police officers in many of the large Northern and Southern cities, the proposition has been handled with kid gloves by those who have such appointments in charge ever since.
NEGRO CALLED COMPETENT
(Continued from Page 1)
the few Negro firemen who had been under him individually. No concrete facts were given which, in my opinion, could be used to prove that general conclusions drawn from instances are only considered valuable when derived from many facts, and the more the better, let us look first at such facts. The cases comes from the Georgia Hallroad slope.
"The witnesses were the general manager, the master mechanic and other officials to whom reports were regularly made about the conduct and value, and particular about the defects, if any, of duty of every engineer examined, and of the many other engineers who were not examined, as it has been for years of their predecessors, to report especially upon any derelictions from duty of the engineer, to those doing the under them. Each of the official successes was, therefore, through their reports, in touch with all of the firemen on the road, and the experience of such officials. If truthfully related, was therefore of more value than that of all the engineers who were employed to use each engineer in touch only with those who have been opened to be under him. What adds further to the testimony of these officials is that the general manager and directors of this carefully managed railroad, from all reports, have adhered for years to the employment in any of the firemen Self-interested in managing railroads as it does other persons. If experience had shown that Negro firemen endangered the safety of the traveling public the railroad company would have given them up. Everybody knows that the safety of the railroad company occurs from the incompatibility of railroad employees. The case of the Georgia Railroad was established by the evidence from that corporation alone.
Southern Bonds Agree with Georgia R. R.
"But besides the evidence of the Georgia R. R. officials, the board of arbitration had before it also the testimony of officials of six other Southern railroads. All of them justified that experience extending back for six other railroads, and that their servication for long periods of all their firemen justified them in adopting and adhering to the policy of employing in part Negro firemen. Never was a controverted fact more abundantly established by evidence than was the fact he had been. Negro firemen were Negro when properly selected, will perform well all the duties of a fireman. Some of the testimony was that the Negroes were more efficient than whites, because they endure better the heat of the climate. But further appeared from the climate that Negro firemen would be taken on as firemen by some of the companies were it not for a desire to train an oneach read a certain number of firemen for engineers. No one of the companies make Negro engineers, wisely drawing the line here just as the people in the company make positions men whom they would not choose for Supreme Court Judges. If the Politico-Economic question. If the Negro is not competent to do the duties of fireman under the immediate supervision of a white engineer, what IB he fit for? What would a Negro fireman be in Negroes in the South? The able counsel of the fireman saw the necessity of some

"Of course, Mr. Arnold has as high regard for the white farmer of the South, who works with his own hands, as I have, and I am sure that he did not see all that this question would imply. In the white farmer the only white man in the South with whom the Negro is to be the competent. These white farmers and the blacks should be sympathy with these labor unions who wish to drive the Negro out of other occupations, should take notice of what all this means. For one I should be glad if we never had a Negro in America. He has been the cause of unspeakable strife and bloodshed. He came; yet it was against him. He was brought here against his will, and he served faithfully as a slave, especially during the Civil War.
"The Negro is here to stay with us, there is nowhere to send him, and no money to transport ten millions of them, we we could find for them by home. Can we find them by home? son and Calboun and Lincoln, and live peacefully with the Negro all over the South, in the black counties and in the white counties, during the long future of the United States, in the experience of the last ten years seems to show that we can, if only hereafter we continue, as heretofore, to be just to the Negro and allow him to work in the South, in the hope that he can get employment. If left to myself, we would strike out the conditions attached to the award of the majority of the arbitrators in the Georgia Railroad case.
Labor Unions scored.
"We will not be doing justice to the Negro if we allow one labor union to come down from the North and exclude him from railroad work, then others to come and exclude him successively from carpentering and blacksmithing and sawmilling, etc., and exclude him from oil mining, interfering with even domestic service. We all approve of labor unions when they confine themselves to their proper spheres. They have undoubtedly accomplished much good, but it is difficult to see how public opinion at the South can approve their course uprise between the races. The white man of the South has nothing to fear from competition with the Negroes, as we all believe. The Negro is not anywhere his equal. When idiences and crime are justly complained of against the Negro it is strange that thoughtful men of the South have him of work he is fit, for. This tends to take away from him all hope, all incentive to become a useful citizen, instead of a burden on the community."
