Leading Negro Newspaper VOL. XXIII. No. 33. "RESEMBLED AN ARMED CAMP" How the Camden Conference Appeared to T. Thomas Fortune Says, in Letter to The Age, That the Beast of Ephesus Has Hold of Rev. J. M. Henderson BISHOP ONCE A SLAVE DRIVER Writer Declares: "Purge the Church. It Is Not a Question of Men; Purge the Church!" That the beast of Ephesus has hold of Rev I M Henderson, that Bishop Games at one time drove slaves in Georgia and that the Camden Conference, held a few weeks ago, resembled more of an armed camp than a peaceful concession of Saints of the Lord, are a few of the statements made in an article written by I Thomas Fortune in reply to the letter of Rev. Henderson, published in last week's issue of The Age, in which Bishop Games was praised and I Thomas Fortune was referred to as one time brilliant. Mr Fortune claims that he is still brilliant enough for all of his purposes of stating facts and entreating them decently, and of running the merciless point of rationation through the thick skins of graffits, imperious dictators and important sacrosancts. Mr. Fortune's reply To the Editor of The New York Age In the last issue of The Age Rev J M Henderson seeks to destroy my pen picture of Bishop Bishop Gaines, published in The Age of May 6, as discovered by him, Bishop Gaines, and not by me, at the Camden Conference, by a glittering glittering pearl, published are as far from being pearls as are pearls from being pebbles. As to the facts related in my article, which are sustained by the minutes of the Camden Conference in 1900, I have noted that Henderson Out of Conference," and your brilliant editorial, "The Bishops Toll, in the Age of May 12, and by the saturnine silence of Bishop Gaines, they, the facts related in my article, the pen picture of the Bishop, and the person Henderson does not touch or disturb at all in his glittering string of rhetorical pebbles. Why, because Dr Henderson during the past twenty-five years that I have known him, has been a phantom from a healthy pastorate to a fat bishopic, and is chasing them still, with a glittering string of rhetorical pebbles. His head is built that way. As for grasping a fact, and treating it with the pleasure of the hands of man, that is none of Dr Henderson's business. Dr. Henderson's Mental Nakeded What is his business? It is Dr. Henderson's business to uncover the mental nakeded of Dr Henderson, and he has been doing it ever since I have known him. That the reason why he cannot keep a mental nakeded one, or come into a fat bishopic, Indeed "Whom the gods would destroy they first make mad." That is the way I felt about it. When I was editor of The Age some five years ago, on reading a four column article of self-revelation, of ubiquity, and mental nakededness, the most expressive whitethered the man's soul and blasted his hope of preferment in his church, made of himself by himself by Dr Henderson, in the columns of The Indianapolis Freeman. Why did he do it? Because the beast of Ephesus forced him to do it. The heart has been after me for three years, and the will of it, I have forced it to do my will as Jesus did Let Dr Henderson do likewise before bings stones at "the one time brilliant" me as he puts it I am still brilliant enough for all of my purling of stating facts and entreating the decency and of running the mercy through the thick skins of grafters, imprisoning dictators and ignorant sacricles. Understood All He Saw. I realize in my article that Bishop Gaines is one of the best money pattern in his church, and so I am interested in his church, and that is one of the best money keepers in his church. I did understand that I saw at the Camden difference which resembled an armed camp than a peaceful nation of saints of the Lord. Bishop Gaines is working for the political leader hated by the clerics and mistrusted by the head as is gray as white, but not as bald as an instance is clean, and I am working as an editor against the work as a preacher and grandfather was preacher in Bethel, in Florida. Mr Gaines was driving Georgia. If I have not been told, I should be. Ada helped behind Brew's back when the Lord confronted him with evil doing. Dr. Henderson does not help Bishop Gaines any by stating the pleasing fact that a sweet and gentle woman has stood by him and believed in him through all the years. Bishop Gaines stated as the years go on, he sees eyes, but he did not return the $150 to the superannuated preachers' fund, which his finance committee, appointed by him voted to him without and shadow of church law or moral right. He has the $150 it frightens him. What has the committee done to business the woman's business? Adam thought so, and so did Jacob, but Jesus thought the other way and so did Saint Paul, and so do I. Like as Cusser insisted that Caesar's wife must be above suspicion the New York Bar Association will not allow a lawyer with a member of it or to print the law in New York. Can the Church afford to be less scrupulous of the character of its ministers and bishops? Dr. Henderson thinks so. I do not Bishop Gaines thinks so, and had three preachers about him at Cambridge, where he was a church board for tampering with handmaidens' of the Lord without the consent of their wives, but I do not think so. More is expected of a preacher and a bishop and a churchman in this respect than of others. I urge the church. It is not a question of men, purge the church. T Thomas Fortune. Trenton, N. J., May 15. GRISCOM ADVOCATES UNITY Chairman of the Republican County Committee of New York County Advises Negro Voters to Follow Leaders—Republican Party for Good Government. The Hon. Lloyd C. Griscom, chairman of the Republican County Committee of New York County, was the principal speaker at the monthly meeting of the Colored Republican Club at the organization's clubhouse, 54 West 133d street, last Tuesday evening. THE HON. LLOYD C. GRISCOM Chairman of the Republican County Committee of New York County Mr. Griscom, who was introduced by Collector Charles W. Anderson, urged unity and recognition of party leaders, saving in part "Mr Anderson, Mr Middleton and gentlemen of the Colored Republican Club of New York. I am here this evening not so much for the purpose of making a formal speech to you as to have the pleasure of meeting you face to face, and coming to know exactly what it is that makes up this great Republican party in the city and county of New York. Collector Anderson has referred to the fact that he feels confident at least that the colored race will receive fair consideration, in so far as it has in my limited power. If he ably does not know there are good reasons which to base what he says reasons which are purely personal myself, but, nevertheless, in my case, very potent. I do not know whether you know it, but I was born and bred in Pennsylvania, and I have not a drop of blood in my veins that is not pure Quaker blood. "My grandparents on both sides, I believe, were Abolitionists before Abraham Lincoln was born. My grandfather's house was one of the mysterious stopping places in the Underground Railway, which procured the freedom of many Negro slaves from the South, and I was brought up by parents and grandparents who filled me with stories, one after another, of what my people had done in the interest of the colored race. I say this here with some pride, not that I have done anything myself, but I am proud of my ancestors. Hardly a week, hardly a day passed at my grandfather's house that some Negro did not arrive, conducted from some other house a few miles away, to be passed on, in time to reach Canadian territory. My grandfather told me that at one time there arrived a large packing case, and my grandfather, who was a physician was called in and told in confluence that it was expected the box might contain a member of the colored With a great deal of anxiety they break open the top boards of the box and sure enough, they found on the inside an enormous man who was speechless and apparently dead. They spoke to him. No reply. Finally my grandfather reached down and whispered in his ear, and said, 'You are among friends; you are no longer in Virginia.'

S. L. Bush Gained Entrance and Preached Sermon Minister Averse to Giving Up Pastorate of Mt. Olivet Baptist Church in Saratoga Springs, N. Y. Special to THE NEW YORK AGE Saratoga Springs, N. Y., May 17, Rev Samuel L. Bush, pastor of the Mt. Olivet Baptist Church of this city, is having a strenuous time of it in his efforts to hold his pastorate. The majority of the trustees do not want him, but he is averse to giving up his charge, and both sides have been kept very busy for the past two weeks. The trustees are said to have held a conference and voted to hold no church services Sunday, which was considered a piece of strategy on their part, the argument having been advanced that it would be better to have no preaching in the morning or evening than to allow Rev Bush to occupy the pulpit. But Rev Bush was not to be outdone, and in some manner secured a key and unlocked the church door, thereby holding services to those who desired to bear the minister expound his views on religion. The trustees are now planning a more effective way to get rid of Rev Bush if he continues to disregard their request to regrieve. Trustee Explain the Situation. The situation as explained by a representative of the Trustee Board is as follows. The conduct of Brother Bush who has been our pastor for four months, coming here from Washington, D. C. has been the subject of several recent meetings of the trustees and Mr Bush signed a paper confessing to misconduct with some of his parishioners. The officers, not wishing to bring all the facts before the congregation and the public, then advised Mr Bush to resign and refuse Mr Bush a second meeting of the congregation, when it was stated that Mr Bush had signed the above mentioned paper, the church members voted to keep him. At this time it was decided to adjourn the meeting until Tuesday. Mr Bush would be formally presented and acted upon at a meeting of the congregation and a council of Baptist clergymen and laimen. The trustees of the church, then, thinking that the pastor was not worthy to preach, and that it would not be possible for the church to be closed, locked the church doors. Mr Bush, so I am told, broke open the lock and conducted services both in the morning and in the evening. Mr Bush some time ago had been charged with trespassing and trustees it is a rule of the church that any of the church officers is under charges his duties cease until he is cleared. Accordingly we held that Mr Bush exceeded his authority in so doing. Understand that Mr Bush has engaged counsel, and that he broke open the door on the advice of his attorney. M F. McLygue, Rev Bush's counsel says that one of the pastor's sympathizers broke open the lock and not the pastor DIVORCED FROM NEGRO WIFE. William S. Morton, a wealthy contracting plumber, has been awarded an interlocutory decree of divorce from Edith May de Williams Morton by Supreme Court Justice Fitzgerald, the suit having been instituted by Morton on the grounds that his wife represented herself to be a white woman, when she was in reality a mulatto. The couple lived happily together until the birth of their first child, which was dark-skinned and showed unmistakably that the child had Negro blood in its veins. In court Morton produced the court records of Danbury, Conn., showing that the defendant was the daughter of a white woman who had married Howard Williams, colored, of New Haven, Conn. Mrs. Morton is now in New England. THREE CHEEFS FOR EDUCATOR. Special to The New York Age. Norwich, Conn., May 17—Booker T.

Immediately after addressing the audience in the Park Congregational Church he was taken in an automobile to the A M E Zion Church where he was received in NEW YORK, THURSDAY, MAY 19, 1910. ORS OUT Gained ed the most enthusiastic manner by an audience of colored people that filled every corner of the church. After speaking for some time the colored women of Newton honored the guest. Dr. Washington's honor immediately after the banquet Dr Washington took the train for New York. A large part of the audience assembled in front of the church as the automobile departed and gave the educator three hearty cheers. The enthusiasm throughout the meeting was at fever heat. NO REVOL MOVE Nervousness Brought ORGANIZE TO UPLIFT RACE Well-Known Negroes of Cleveland Form Cleveland Association of Colored Men—George A. Myers Tells of Aims of Organization Special to THE NEW YORK ACE Cleveland, O. May 11 A movement is on foot in this city to work for the greater improvement of the Negroes of Cleveland, and an association has been organized to be known in the Cleveland Association of Colored Men. Among the prominent Negro citizens interested in the movement are George A. Myers, Attorney John P. Green, member of the Legislature at one time. State Representative Eunikins, Attorney William Reeve, Attorney Manian T. W. St. James, Rev. A. Owen, pastor of St. James, A. M. E. Church, Nahum D. Brascher, Walter B.

TWO FUNDS TO UNITE Rumor Afloat That There is To Be a Union of the Slater and Jeanne Funds-Combined Funds, Amounting to the Interest of 100,000. To Be Used in the Interest of Negro Education. There is an authentic report in New York to the effect that the trustees of the John F. Slater Fund and the trustees of the Anna T. Jeanes Fund are to bring about a union of these two important educational funds. The Anna T. Jeanes Fund consists of $1,000,000. The John F. Slater Fund now amounts to about $1,500,000, and the combined funds will amount to $2,500,000. According to the deed of gift in each case, the interest on these two funds is to be used for the promotion of Negro education. The present plan of the two boards of trustees, it is reported, is to have each board maintain its separate legal status but that they are to units in a way to economize in the use of the money and in the promotion of better results. It is said that the plans, which are being worked out in detail, contemplate that there shall be one general agent acting for the two boards, and that the two boards will jointly supply assistant or field agents. If this plan is carried out it would seem that the race will be greatly benefited, as the income from $2,500,000 should aid considerably in helping the black race toward the education of the Negro people. REV. GILBERT WIN8 CASE In denying the application for a writ of certiorari to review the election held by the Mount Olivet Baptist Church on December 2, 1907, as asked by Xenophon W Jackson and others, Supreme Court Justice Ford rendered a decision in favor of Rev Matthew W Gilbert. Since 1907 several factions have been at war at Mount Olivet Baptist Church, due to the attempt of the faction headed by Xenophon W Jackson to oust Rev Gilbert as pastor. The controversy was taken to the courts, and the ruling of Supreme Court Justice Ford will probably end the ecclesiastical war Nervousness of Government Brought About Recent Agitation POLITICAL SITUATION Gomez Attempted to Break Up Independent Party of Color—Estenoz Wants Negroes to Get Proper Recognition. Special to The New York Aqz. Havana, May 14 — Peace regns throughout the island, and it now develops that there never has been a sureenough Negro uprising, the government having displaced unnecessary nervousness in dealing with the situation. There have been no disturbances between the whites and blacks, and the only ill-feeling shown has been on the part of those whites who were pane-stricken by the rumors circulated that the blacks were planning a revolution. The consensus of opinion is that Estenoz and his followers never planned an anti-white movement, and that the government's zeal in attempting to check the progress of a political movement did much to agitate matters. So far the net result of the recent wholesale arrests and indictments of Negroes has not been to weaken the Agrupacion Independente de Color—Independent Party of Color—but to alienate from the government and to drive into the Conservative camp many thousands of those very Negroes who constituted the bulk of the party which elected President Gomez. While many intemperate articles have appeared in General Estenzo's Prevision, and the General himself for months past has denounced the government from the stump in unmeasured terms, there appears to be no evidence that he at any time advocated the forcible overthrow of the government or any rupture of the amicable relations between blacks and whites that are normal throughout Cuba. What he demanded, as all other colored politicians have done, was the assignment of offices to the Negroes' proportion to their numbers, and to the services rendered by the race in the war of the revolution. No Evidence of Conspiracy. The government pretends to be in the possession of information proving that Estoner and the greater part of the other prisoners were engaged in a plot to overthrow the government and massacre all the whites in the island, but this apparently rests mainly on the statements of police officers and spies without further corroboration. As an example of this testimony, information was given by the police that members of the societies called "Aponte" and Arpa de Oro" were concerned in the conspiracy to massacre. It turned out that the former of these societies is an organization modeled after the Red Cross, the members of which are well-to-do white and colored men, who parade in very showy uniforms and whose honorary president is no less a personage than Major General Jose Miguel Gomez, President of the Republic of Cuba. The "Arpa de Oro" and one other society denounced by the police also proved to be perfectly respectable organizations without the faintest taint of massacre or rebellion. It is also significant that these conspirators, bent on the desperate enterprise of overturning a well-armed government and perpetrating a general massacre, possessed no weapons. At least the government has made no seizures of arms with the exception of one revolver and a machete, which one of the conspirators carried while fighting for the independence of Cuba in the revolution of 1896. There is plenty of evidence that the Conservatives were giving their support to Estenor's political party in exchange for rewards to be forthcoming in the event of united victory at the polls, and these Conservatives embrace in their ranks the best elements of Cuban society. General Freire de Andrade, who was Secretary of the Interior under President Palma and who undertook the defense of all the prisoners under the express stipulation that he would withdraw from the case on the discovery of any evidence of an illegal conspiracy, says that he had no doubt whatever that no conspiracy existed and that it was perfectly clear that the motive of the government's action was the breaking up of a political party, no matter at what hazard FORM STATE BODY Negroes of Rochester Planning to Celebrate Eleventh Anniversary of the University of Michigan's Giants Monument—Circulate Sent to Citizens Throughout New York State. Special to THE NEW YORK AGE Rochester, N Y, May 17—Active preparations are being made by the committee in charge of the eleventh anniversary of the unveiling of the Douglass monument, which will be celebrated in this city June 30, at Odd Fellows Hall A State body is to grow out of the local organization Mrs John G Lee has charge of the musical program, and John C Dancey is expected to be the chief speaker On the committee are John W.

Portland, William H Stockton, Lewis Alston, Charles K. Davenport, Charles Majett, M R Lippins and George Gibbs. The following circular has been sent out to the Negroes of the State of New York The Cleveland Association of Colored Men and Association to promote the varied interests of the colored people of this community It is doing a great and noble work for their uplift The recent visit of Dr Booker T. Washington has given the association a renewed impetus and inspiration The members are planning an educative industrial camp and actively the licensed engineer of which there are thirty have organized The association will seek to organize colored men in other employments, not with any idea of having them affiliate with organized labor, but for their moral and educational labor, and we believe that the more brain a man puts into work the better workman he becomes, and he is in a position to make his services well-nigh indispensable to his employer and to secure a healthy bank account. The colored men of Cleveland are better than any man ever before, and each succeeding year will see their condition improved. The capable, competent colored man willing to work and deliver the goods only asks an equal chance, an equal opportunity, and if he cannot measure up in the equation of success he must be a great injustice to measure him the careless and shiftless of the race. Other nationalities are not so measured. If a colored man is incompetent, treat him the same as you do in incompetent white man, but do not make the mistake of being incompetent with being incompetent or shifting, as frequently the case, for this is an injustice. We earnestly ask the co-operation of the white citizens, that there may be a better understanding and a closer relation existing between the colored and industrial affairs, thereby giving us a better measure up to the standard in all that constitutes good citizenship. RICH WOMAN: DEAD Special to THE NEW YORK AGE Lexington, Ky, May 16—Margaret Pryor, the richest Negro woman in Kentucky by virtue of the will of Maj. B G Thomas, whose slave and housekeeper she was for years, died last Thursday in the mansion left to her by the master of Hiravila Stud. The money that was accumulated by Maj. Thomas during his lifetime will be divided among the Negro relatives of the aged woman. The will of Maj. Thomas, one of the most remarkable documents ever filed for probate in this county, caused a storm of protests from his relatives and friends, as in addition to bequeathing the bulk of his vast fortune to Margaret Pryor, he also inserted a clause that at her death she should be buried at his side in the Lexington Cemetery. The latter clause, however, was finally compromised by the Negro housekeeper, and she will be buried in the cemetery set aside for those of her color. Since the death of Maj. Thomas, "Aunt Margaret" as she was known to practically every horseman of note in this country and Europe, had resided in the handsome city home willed to her and there she had been visited by people from every part of the country who had known her master and who were anxious to once again look at the priceless paintings which adorned the library. While the will of the deceased has not been made public, it is believed most of the fortune will go to John Clay, the Negro trainer who for years had charge of the horses owned by Maj. Thomas PREVENT JAIL ESCAPE. Special to The New York Age. Douglas, Ga, May 16—Fifty convicts were prevented from escaping last week by the fidelity of two Negro lifers, who seized rifles and threatened any convict with death if a break was made. The prisoners got the opportunity to show their fidelity because the white guards got drunk and deserted the camp, which is about five miles from here. The Negroes stood guard over the fifth camp all the time. A citizen passing the camp this morning learned of the situation and notified the authorities here, who sent a posse to the camp. The posse found the two Negroes still on guard and the baffled convicts cursing them. A petition has been started asking Governor Brown to recognize the fidelity of the two Negroes. DEMOTED TO MESSENGER Cleveland (0). May 17—Much surprise, as well as regret, is being expressed here owing to the announcement that the Hon Jeremiah Brown, who for many years has been employed in a responsible position in the office of the United States Commissioner of Immigration, has been removed and given the position of messenger MINISTER HELD FOR BIGAMY Rev. Francis Bowser a Prisoner in Brook- lyn Jajl Case Continued by Magistrate Tighe in Order to Extradite Preacher to New Jersey Mrs. Bowser, No. 1, Says They Were Married in May, 1888—Second Marriage Solennized Last June. Rev Francis Bowser, formerly pastor of the V M E Church at Bradford, Pa., is a prisoner in the Adams Street Station, Brooklyn, on the charge of bigamy preferred against him by Mrs. Wealthy Bowser. He was arrested last Friday by Detectives Donelon, Wendeberg and Gomeringer at 493 Cumberland street, where he had been stopping for several days, and was arraigned before Magistrate Tighe in the Adams Street Court. Magistrate Tighe adjourned the case PETER H. for ten days to give the New Jersey authorities time to arrange for Rev. Bowser's extradition to Jersey City, N. J., as the second marriage is said to have been performed in that State, where he is under indictment. Rev. Bowser's arrest is the culmination of a search extending over a period of eights months, instituted by Mrs. Wealthy Bowser at whose instance the minister is being held. Mrs. Bowser received word from the Brooklyn authorities last Thursday that Rev. Bowser was under surveillance and to come at once to Brooklyn. She arrived the next day and promptly identified the prisoner as her erring spouse. Mrs. Bowser, No. 2, who was formerly Miss Mary Gantt, of Brooklyn, is a patient in the Seney Hospital. Read of Second Marriage in The Age. The first information Mrs. Bowser, No. 1, received of the second marriage of Rev. Bowser was last July when the read in THE AGE of July 1 of the announcement telling of the marriage of the contracting parties on June 21. At the time Mrs. Bowser, No. 1, was in Pittsburg and thought Rev. Bowser was in the Northwest, she claiming that he left her in Bradford, Pa., in April 1909, with the understanding that he was going to be away for several weeks. She went to Pittsburg to visit relatives. According to Mrs. Bowser, No. 1, upon going to their home in Bradford she found that all the household effects had been sold and that Rev. Bowser had broken up housekeeping and departed for New York. Coming to New York she learned that Rev Bowser had wooed and won Miss Mary I Gant and that the couple had departed for parts unknown. She put the case in the hands of the authorities, who located Rev Bowser and Mrs. Bowser, No. 2, in Canada. However, the police officials were unable to bring the minister of sentimental tendencies to the United States without first securing extradition papers which, for some reason, could not be secured. Just how long Rev Bowser and Mrs. Bowser, No. 2, have been in Brooklyn is not known. The prisoner says he has been soliciting subscriptions for a home for colored people at Sharpsburg, Va. Mrs. Bowser, No. 1, is highly elated over the arrest of Rev Bowser, and declares that she will prosecute him in Jersey City for bigamy. They were married in May, 1888. Mrs. Bowser, No. 2, says she did not know that the prisoner was a married man before she married him, as he represented himself to be a Romeo who had never known connubial bliss.

In addresses delivered im this city last week, two of the most prominent speak. ers, Clarence Darrow, of Chicago, and Professor Boas, of New York, accord- ing to newspaper reports, advocated intermarriage between the black and white races as a solution of the race problem. We wonder if there 1s any real good to accrue to the race just now in agitat- ing such a question We wonder, fur- ther, how many people there are in America, either North or South, of either race, who are prepared to stand by and support such a practice in actual deeds. We wonder, still further, if those who are responsible for such utterances think that they are really helping the Negro race And still further, we won- der if the individuals themselves who utter such sentences are prepared to put their theories into actual practice THE WORLD MOVEMENT. We advise all our readers to read and ponder the surring address of former President Roosevelt. on “The World Movement,” dehvered at the University of Berlin last Thursday. If the ad- dress at the French Sorboune was that ‘of the world statesman, this address at Berlin was that of the world scholar. Clear and comprehensive the conclu- sions of the learned and experienced student of the world will be inspiriting and inspiring to all civilization. What Mr. Roosevelt said of the world move- ‘ment fits with a pecuhar appropriateness to the Negro race Taking stock of the civilization of all mes and with the actual conditions of the world to-day as & basis, he took a look into the future His great conclusion was Personally. I do not believe that our civilization will fall. I think that on the whole we have grown better and not worse I think that on the whole the future holds more for us than even the great pyst has held. But, assuredly, the dreams of golden glory in the future will Bot come true unless. high of heart and etrong of hand, by our own mighty deeds we make them come true.

Away with any agitation in this church or any other church that makes Y difference between the color of a man's skin="Those who are responsible for the agitation of this question should be ashamed of themselves A CATHOLIC TUSKEGEE. Father John E Burke, of New York, Director General of the Catholic Board for Massionary Work among Colored People, has induced the great Catholic Church to go still further for the uplift of the Negro. The warm enthusiasm of the earnest priest has widely infected his Cathohe brethren and in his own words “The crv of the Negro has pen- erated to the very heart of the church.” A movement national in scope hasbeen, launched Fur several months the work ‘of raising $100,000 annually for the education and salvation of the Negroes of the South has been going on. The Catholic workers in the field have found that the crying need of the Negroes in the South 1s for an education that will meet and raise their industrial condi- tion Naturally enough they turned to Tuskegee and found the famous institu- tion “a civilization works” The Catho- hie Missionary Board meeting at Balts- more last week put itself on record as favoring the establishment, somewhere im the heart of the Southland, of a na- tional industrial school for colored boys and girls, The Cathohe Tuskegee gether with the more strictly mussion- ary work, said Father Burke, im the future will make “home missions as im- portant as the foreign.” This new effort which the Roman Catholic Church 1s making in behalf of the Negro is one of the most noble and ambitious the Roman Church has ever made in this country It means not only an industrial and spiritual salva tion of the Negro. st means a better and more democratic feeling on the part of the hosts of Catholics in the South and throughout the country It is a splendid example to the Protestant churches who ate concerned almost ex- clusively in the salvation of the heathen of Asia and Africa and omnt to consider the heathen white as well as black of America It does not stop there, but charity begins at home THE DOCTORS’ DUTIES. Dr. Marcus Hi. Wheatland, president of the National Medical Association, has undertaken at least two efforts which, if successful, must be of ines- timable benetit to the race ‘The famous president tumself will head a committee of fifteen doctors from the national organization to inves- tigate tuberculosis among Negroes No comprehensive, sctentinc and satisfac tory inquiry into the reasons for the excessive ravages of the disease among Negroes has vet heen made Whatever investigation hay been made heretofore has been partial at ont unfriendly It has. consequently, been reported that hecunse of the Nugers mferior lung capacity and his mabibts te acclimate an the temperate sone, he as a peculiar vie tim of the great white plague Pore howsng and bine contiteens and an ability to secure proper medical atten thon ate ascribed as the causes by the eminent X Ray expert, whe scoffs. at the other quasi screntiti apimione How. ever that may be, that the leading Ne- gro doctors will consider thoroughly the citation ie cayge for general satis- facon Ar the Newark meeting of the North Jerses Meshal Ascuration last werk De Wheatland again impressed pon Negro doctors the need of sctentia at tamment ‘The Negrin ductor fer the most part seems contort te carn a good Tising and restion fay ware He is not apparently fired by the amnion ts keep inthe san of his profession and te achieve reputatian fer serentitie scholarshyy and attainment ‘This tack of attainment and reputation protubits confidence and popularity, not only among white, but colored people In urging consideration of consump: tion among Negroes and the need of scholarship and achievement, the pres: dent of the National Medical Associa ton has placed his finger upon the two preeane duties of the Negro doctors A MATTER OF CONGRATULA. TION. A dispatch from Washington, recent ly pubhshed im the New York newspap- ers, state that R. E Cabell, Commis. sioner of Internal Revenue, has given out a statement showing that $25,000,- 000 has been assessed in the various in- ternal revenue districts of the country on account of the tax of one per cent of the net income of corporations. ‘This statement shows that the largest amount assessed in any district in the United States was in the Second Dis- trict of New York. This is the district over which our fellow townsman, Hon. Charles W. Anderson, presides. Facts like these make one who belongs to the same race that Mr. Anderson belongs to feel exceedingly proud.

African republic Said To Have Been Pooled Into Foreign Loans—Uncle Sam Should Come To Its Rescue. In the New York Tribune of recent late appeared an interview with Dr. Ronald P. Talkiner, Chairman of the American Commission to Liberia, in which especial mention is made of Liberian conditions. The Washington correspondent of the Tribune writes "Since the United States began to take an interest in Liberia, and especially since the publication of the report of the commission which visited that country, Dr Robert P Falkner, Chairman of the Commission to Liberia, common warnings have come to the daily press from correspondents in England, whose general tone is to represent the action proposed for the United States as foolhardy. These dispatches are a certain family resemblance and race their paternity to prominent Englishmen who are well informed as to Liberal conditions. The name of E. Graham of the Liberian Development Company is frequently mentioned as the source of the information given. The substitutes of these dispatches is that if the United States fails Liberia at the present juncture the African rebellion will be hopeless, that she has one nothing to develop the resources of the country, that her government is inefficient, and corrupt, that a loan from the United States would be of little trail, unless the administration of the country were enarmed in all its parts. The officials that the United States will rue the day it enters into arrangements that Liberia, as she cannot be trusted that she will repulse obligations to the United States as she has those underaken to foreign orders of concessions. "It is undoubtedly true." Dr Falkner continued that the Liberians look longingly for aid from the United States, recent events have confronted them with grave problems of national defence and internal development which they rarely admit are beyond their power to meet alone. For the last three decades territorial aggrandizement has seen the policy of the European powers in Africa, and the vaguely indefinite boundaries of Liberia have been a weak defence against the land-grabbing proxies of her neighbors Looks to United States. Liberia feels, with good show of reason, that if she could eliminate these exiting international questions growing out of boundaries there would be better opportunities for development of her country and for internal growth. Naturally she looks to the United States. That Britain and France are parties in the case, while Germany is an African colonial power. Among her friends the United States only has no territorial interests. But it is in her home problems as well that Liberia needs the help of a more advanced people. New problems confront her because the intrusion of arrogance into Africa has set up new standards of efficiency in government and has made a more effective control of territory imperative. This is parallels true in all relations with the more true, who must be held in check. Some than was once the case. To meet these obligations Liberia accepted a proffered aid of Great Britain. She captured a fortress in English officers. But these were turned up all sorts of trouble with the Liberian authorities and left no room to Liberia but to request her regiments. negates the need of doing the development of her first foreign debt, con- trol had some such end in it was vaguely demean- duse the republic failed the proceeds of the loan, and it Only a few years and to the inducements the company which Mr This company ob- one sued agreement harrow $5000 on Liberian government interest and plague revenues which it the hands of a British Government Stepped In terms of the contract has to receive outright while the remain- by the company for works and its own put- the company had frattered the government over the incomplete of the cash balance, but company had paid all its London, and charged public improvements of experiences it can propose that the Liber- ather nation for aid and implication that Liber- tiful for all that her for her is a most re- put forward by the of the Liberian Develop- Liberans have done little countries of the country have not had the money neighbors are resources of pean powers, with all the nations behind them.

No Mother Country. May be noted, it is easier eruption than to find it fourches in Liberia, as The statement that the Liberians cannot be trusted, that they will not keep their word, the implication that they fatten on the foreigner by granting concessions which they later repudiate, is a gross perversion of the truth of the matter. If one could read in all its details the pitiful story of how Liberia had been bamboozled in its foreign contrast with this its earliest effort meet its obligations notwithstanding, it could gain a feeling of respect for the people. "Why this story of repudiated contracts should be so persistently repeated is not clear. It has little to back it, and there is no precise statement of the facts. As nearly as can be ascertained, the President of the republic made some unauthorized contracts with the Liberian Development Company which were kept secret. When they became known the Legislature repudiated them because it had not empowered the President to make them. This is the whole front of Liberia's offending "Sifted down, then, these recent dispatches represent in considerable measure the bile of disappointed concession seekers. It is hardly to such that the American public will be disposed to go to secure true views and estimates of what is going on in Liberia."

The purposes of all generations are set forth at length in additional exposes which we spread from the New York Evening Post, at which Mr. Oswald Carrion, Vetter is editor and himself chairman of the executive committee of the National Negro Conference. The editorial in part follows. The second annual National Negro conference for the discussion of Negro problem now in session in the city has set itself high and worthy aims to do for this race what the Lake Mobink Conference has done for the Northernners are to break this year at least, and colored men and women as well as white. All shades of opinion are to find utterance that out of the mulitude of connected some progress may be made in bringing the actual facts of the situation and in demanding redress for undoubted grievances. This year the discussions are from the point of view of disfranchisement. how diffranchisement affects the Negro in the courts in the schools at the ballot box, the community in which he dwells. Eventually it is hoped that out of this conference will grow a bureau of scientific committee for investigations, a legal aid department for the race, a publicity department for the coming actual facts of the confounding progress of the Negro in less than fifty years, and the amazingly law-abiding character of the colored people as a whole. Meanwhile, however, the conference, in its resolutions of last year, demands of Congress and the Executive, that the Constitution be strictly enforced and the civil rights guaranteed under the Fourteenth Amendment be secured im- (3) That there be equal educational opportunities for all and in all the states, and that public school be the place for the Negro and the white child. (3) That in accordance with the Fifteenth Amendment the right of the Negro to the ballot on the same day be recognized in every part of the country. Grievous as is the lot of the oppressed, that of the oppressor is worse in the long run—so often is he compelled to commend to his enemies the poisoned chalice. Hence we have no reason to say that the National Negro Conference's title is misleading. It ought to be known also as an undertaking on behalf of the militant black officers of the South Difraanished, often disregarded, lacking in many communities, inprise of the Negro, pitifully ignorant, they are often the easy prey of demagogues whose whole stock trade is the menace of the Negro and the welfare and efficiency of the Negro depend the economic prosperity and progress of the entire South Disfranchisement of Negroes in various Southern States was discussed at the Friday and second public meeting of the National Negro Committee's second annual conference in the assembly hall of the Charity Organization Society. The Rev John Haynes Holmes, b. Burdins BoBos and Albert E. Pilllsburr, ex Attorney General of Massachusetts, were the speakers. The first gathering had been in Cooper Union Thursday night. Mr Pilllsburr, who presided at the morning meeting, was the first to talk He said in part. "It appears to me idle to discuss disfranchisement, unless, somehow or somewhere, we can strike a direct blow at it. For thirty years the process has gone on under our eyes, for thirty years we have been looking for some way of putting an end to it, and no way has been found. The difficulties in the way of a direct attack upon it have thus far proved insuperable. There is no doubt that in the fullness of time the injustice and inimplicity of excluding the Negro from the political and social system will be seen and confessed, but an indifferent North cannot meet a united and resolute South. To work out the rights of the Negro by mere appeals to public sentiment will be a work of generations. "There is a Remody." The course of events for years has gradually been forcing me to the conviction that the political fate of the Negro is in his own hands, and that he must work it out for himself. There is a remedy for disfranchisement, if he will apply it, more effective than any for which he can look to the dominant race. In eleven States where he is allowed to vote, there is a Negro-voting population sufficient to hold the balance of power in any close elections "It would call for leadership of the highest order, for sacrifice, and a devotion to principle which might stand as an example to the world. Yet it is an eternal truth that men's fortunes are in their own hands. The whole philosophy of freedom is sounded in that inspired and inspiring line of Byron's apostrophe to the struggling Greeks, a call that ought to ring forever in the ears of every Negro "Who would be free themselves must strike the blow." Mr Pillhour introduced Mr Holmes as a man with good blood in his veins, as a man fitted to take up the work of that great apostrophe of freedom. Theodore Parker, Mr Holmes began by mentioning some of the other men continually raised to any discussion of the subject of disfranchisement—the plea that it was too delicate a matter to discuss, that it hurt business, and that it offended Southerners. As of business were of the least importance whatsoever when the freedom, happiness, and love of ten millions of people are at take," he continued. "As to affording Southerners by an open invitation of the subject, I think our duty to attend any people who do not appreciate the gross error of their Tendency to Improvement He said that the whole trend of modern effort was to unify rare social customs to bring about the true and pass relation of class with class of individual with individual. In the intrusion into the legislatures of employers having acts in the enactment of child labor laws in the increasing demand for national socialism or a more equal employment or opportunities, the struggle for justice was to be seen he said. Why should this problem not be disfranchised he indemnity postponed while other questions are receiving immediate and searching consideration he asked. After reviewing the three periods in the process of taking the tramise from the Negro the first from the close of the war until 1775, when the Negro was practically dominant, a period known as the "carpet bag" period, the second until 1790, when the illegal disfranchisement of the Negro was carried out, by brute force, by the Klu-Klux Khan and the stuffed ballot box, and the present time, marked by the legal punishment through literary classes and other Constitutional interpretations, the speaker explained the workings of the two great weapons by which the Negro was now deprived of his vote. These were first, the Understanding clause, by which it was left to the discretion of the election officers to pick out a clause in the constitution which the voter must interpret, with the result, according to Mr. Holmes, that the uneducated Negro would be excluded and the equally uneducated white man allowed to vote and the Grandfather clause, by which any one whose grandfather was entitled to vote on the first of January, 1807, would be allowed to vote, and which he may provision, excluded all Negroes and let in nearly all white men. Mr. Holmes said the public school system of the South was "no poor as to be broken down, nor were they called attempts to disfranchise the Negro, as distinguished from the white man, damnable, and said that by them an entire class was outlawed from the race "The men who have done this thing," he exclaimed, "are the most dangerous anarchists with whom our nation has to deal." The whole matter, he continued, was based on prejudice, which Professor Royce of Harvard had defined as "no more a noble sentiment than a woman's fear of a mouse, a mere caprice, and a childish thing". This prejudice, he asserted, was far from the central teaching of religion, universal brotherhood. As a practical suggestion for remedying the evils which he had pointed out, he gave the following: "We can educate, we can talk, we can agitate, we can meet, we can trouble America as Elijah of old troubled the people of Israel, and someone or later the national conscience must be aroused to activity and the ending of this crying evil" The last speaker of the morning was Professor DuBois, the Negro man of letters, about whom a Harvard professor recently said, after his return from the southeast, that Professor DuBois is the only graduate of Harvard in the last twenty-five years who has produced a work of true literature." He spoke of the statistical and practical side of the disfranchisement problem, and drew diagrams on an improvised blackboard to illustrate his meaning. The Cooper Union Meeting. Speakers at the meeting in Cooper Union included the Rev. Reverdy C. Ransom, Mrs Ida Wells-Barnett, Ray Stannard Baker, Representative W. S. Bennett and Clarence Darrow. The Rev. Peray S. Grant presided. "Some of the ways in which the Negro is vitally affected by disfranchisement we will show by incontrovertible facts," said the Rev. Mr. Ransom "He has been abandoned by the party he kept in power for a generation and given into the power of those who, by every device of legislation and lawless outrage, are seeking to reduce him to a condition of semi-slavery or serfdom. His life is insecure. He may be set upon by mobs and put to death without mercy when accused or suspected of crime. If a white man is the aggressor, he is not protected in defending his person, his family, or his property from assault, outrage or violence "It causes injustice in the division of the school fund. South Carolina spent last year for the education of the average white child $10.34, and for the education of the colored child $1.70 The States of Virginia, North Carolina, South Carolina, Georgia, Alabama, Mississippi, Louisiana, Alabama, and Tennessee spent on public schools annually $22,068,851 The Negroes in these States, although 40.1 per cent. of the population, receive only 14.8 per cent. of the fund. It is not true that the money used to educate the Negroes in the South comes from the pockets of the white taxpayers. In Virginia, North Carolina and Georgia, the Negroes do not receive by $33,275 for school purposes the amount of personal and poll taxes they pay, plus their pro rata share of corporation taxes and State appropriation. Barred from Jury Service. "Disfranchisement makes judicial procedure in the courts a farce, by excluding Negroes from jury service, and from election and appointment to office for the execution and administration of the law. It prevents freedom to move from place to place within a State, and freedom to emigrate. It is re-enacting within a free republic the federal system of attachment to the soil. In Georgia, Mississippi, South Carolina and Louisiana, laws have been passed which inhibit the moving from place to place, except under hard conditions. In these States there exist laws which provide a penalty of imprisonment and a fine of two hundred dollars, for any emigrant agent who endeavors to encourage migration not only from the State but even from different counties of the same State. Mrs. Lily Wells Harper said, Records show that beginning with 1882 in which year there were upward of one hundred persons launched, there was steady increase until 1892, when there were launched tiffy persons were launched with the most cruel, public, and barbarism. Lynchings in the North. Later the war 1994 knitting developed by year by year for the next decade. The existence of the nation was again limited to sleep, and the record of the twenty years shows a surprising increase in knitting and not ever in the North. No Northern State has more professionally engaged in this crime than him as the State of Lincoln, Grant and Logan. Since 1991 there have been sixteen knitting within the State, including the Springfield root. With each report in there has been increased violence, rioting and barbarianism. The last knitting which took place November 11 of last year in Italy, was one of the most human spectacles ever witnessed in this country. "The Negroes of Illinois have taken counsel together for a number of years over Illinois increasing lynching record. They elected one of their number to the State Legislature in 1904. In 1905 he offered and caused the passage of a bill which provided for the suppression of mob violence, not only by punishment of those who incited lynchings, but provided for damages against the city and county permitting lynchings. The bill went further. It provides that if any persons shall be taken from the custody of the sheriff or his deputy and lynched it shall be prima facie evidence of failure on the part of the sheriff to do his duty. Ray Stannard Baker of the American Magazine said "But, personally, and I am here vowing a profound conviction, I think our emphasis at present should be laid upon the practical rather than upon the legal aspect of the problem I think we should take advantage of the widely prevalent feeling at the South that the question of suffrage has been settled legally for some time to come of the desire on the part of many Southern people, both white and colored, to turn aside from the discussion of the political status of the Negro "In short, let us for the time being accept the laws as they are, and build upward from that point.

WHITE RATS ANSWER THE AGE In a recent issue of THE ACE the charge was made that there is a tacit understanding existing among the White Rats, a theatrical organization composed of white vaudevillians, to discriminate against colored artists whenever an occasion presents itself. Judging from articles appearing in several of the white papers, the White Rats did not take kindly to the indictment. Fred Niblo, big chief of the White Rats, in giving out a lengthy interview which appeared in the New York Morning Telegraph, is quoted as being opposed to drawing the color line in vaudeville, and goes on record as saying: "The White Rats are heartily in favor of encouraging an organization of colored performers," while Harry Mountford, secretary of the organization, is credited by the Player, the official organ of the White Rats, with declaring that no stand has ever been made by the body of white vaudevillians to retard the progress of the colored vaudeville performer. Such outspoken denials of discrimination by reason of color, and healthy expressions of good wall for the colored vaudevillian by two of the most prominent members of the White Rats are received with marked pleasure, as heretofore, for some reason, the colored members of the profession have been of the opinion that the White Rats have not been any too kindly disposed toward them. The attitude of Messrs Niblo and Mountford changes the aspect of things. Past Differences Should be Buried. Many colored performers, after reading the published statements of Big Chief Niblo and Secretary Mountford, showed an inclination to question the assertions that the White Rats have never made an effort to raise the color question. Specific instances were cited to substantiate claims that colored variety artists have been in the past inconvenienced by the alleged projudicial attitude assumed by many of the White Rats. That white vaudevillians, who are members of the White Rats, have gone out of their way to make conditions uncomfortable for colored performers, is a piece of news generally known in theatrical circles. However, it is possible that these would be prejudice manufacturers were acting without the knowledge and consent of the organization in which they hold membership Big Chief Nblo has expressed a willingness to co-operate with the members of the colored theatrical profession, and his kind invitation should be accepted with alacrity. Much good could come about by the white and colored Thespians working together. For instance, the White Rats are making a fight in Albany to have a law passed which will make it unlawful for booking agents to collect more than five per cent. commission from vaudevillians. If the bill is passed the colored artist will profit as much as the white, as it will be impossible, under the laws of the State of New York, for the act to favor one without the other. It is somewhat unfair to expect the white performer to bring about such a desired result and the colored members of the profession to be equally benefited, without making the least effort to aid in a fight which means money in the pockets of all. Of course, it is possible that the White Rats have not conferred with the colored vaudevillians on the subject, the latter assuming that they were not wanted. A Factor to be Reckoned With. There is one thing that the White Rats and all other white theatrical organizations should remember, and that is, the colored variety artists and their friends can help materially in securing the passage of just laws at Albany as well as in Greater New York. There are about 40,000 colored voters in the State of New York, 20,000 of whom are living in Greater New York. It can be readily seen that the Negro has something to do with electing Assemblymen and State Senators, and therefore is a factor to be reckoned with. If the broad minded members of the White Rats will join forces with Messrs. Niblo and Mountford and agree to co-operate with the colored vauillevillian, both sides will find that much good can be accomplished in behalf of all concerned by the establishment of friendly relations. On behalf of the colored vaudeville performer THE ACE accepts the hand of good fellowship extended by Big Chief Niblo, and the following proposition is submitted to the White Rats for consideration. That a time and a place be named at which representatives of the white organization and representatives of the colored vaudevillians can meet and discuss harmony and plans for working together in the future, with a view to bettering conditions in the theatrical profession generally. What do the White Rats think of the idea? ```markdown ``` GEORGIA HARVEY MICKEY who is living Russia alone in vandale BLACK PATTI CO- Waterbury, Conn. May 18, New Haven, 19 and 20 Bridge- port, 21.

Columbia University Pharmacist Employed. The only colored graduate of the Columbia University College of Pharmacy was George F. Clayton, born in March, 1839. He is the son of the well known business man, Mr E Lee Clayton and Mrs E Lee Clayton of 780 Franklin Street, Manhattan. Mr Clayton prepared for the Army and Witt Clinton High School graduating with the class of 1908. After completing his freshman year at New York M. GEORGE F. CLAYTON University he entered Columbia University College of Pharmacy Young Mr. Clayton is one of the most ambitious and industrious of young men. If he achieves the bright future which his friends predict he can truthfully call his laurels this own, for he has been able to assist him, he has earnestly worked his way through his whole college career. Last year he was employed in the work of his profession as a druggist, junior grade, by a prominent white firm of apothecaries, where he found崇厚 medicine. Mr. Clayton's services were immediately sought by a white firm, which he accepted. This in itself is a feature which gives great hope, for it shows that in the event of young colored men obtaining the necessary qualifications the door of opportunity opens, and that much of the color line as relates to business is effaced.

You need not mind telling us if you are alive. Slowly the lips began to twitch, a large mouth opened; a fine row of teeth began to show, and the most beautiful grin he ever saw was when he saw the smile on that man's face. They quickly took him out of the box and him how he was. Apparently he was in humor, but said he had not had a bite to three days. He said that once during his impairment from Washington they had stood the box so that his head was down for them but said, 'I guess de good Lawd who made my haid knew what was comm' "I do not think any man in this room can carry away any doubt about the sincerity and strength of the feelings which I have. But I am here to greet you tonight as fellow Republicans and to appeal to you for your loyal support of the party for which we are all working and for the aims and principles for which we are all working.

"That which is important to you is unity. You must have leaders; you must recognize the leaders and must follow the leaders. I am not holding my office to pick your leaders for you. It is for you to do that. Of course, I am thrown in contact with only a few of you, and I am glad to tell you what a pleasure it is to have business relations with and feel that our organization has been responsible for external placing in office such a distinguished, such an intelligent, cultivated and able member of your race as Collector Anderson. "A word about the general political situation. You doubtless know that the political barometer is supposed to be a little low just now. The newspapers are full of criticisms of our party. Those are criticisms which must and always do come to the party which is the great constructive party, and not a destructive party, the party whose ideas and policies have been responsible for the unbuilding and prosperity of this country ever since the Civil War. We have been out of Federal control some years at a time, but in the long run it is our party which is responsible for the history of this country, and our party which is entitled to the major part of the great advances which our nation has Greenberg Ladies' Hair Dressing MANUFACTURER OF HUMAN HAIR GOODS Afro-American Hair Goods a All kinds of Wigs.

When we pass through such moments of criticism as now it never appears to harm us, for we have seen over and over again that when the time for activity is reached, we have seen the original sane condition and place us in power, and I am confident that this is what is going to happen this year. "We are fortunate in having at this time a great national leader, who is occupying the White House at Washington in a manner that does credit not only to his party, but to the people of the United States, and of whom we might well be proud Here in New York we have a situation which is fairly startling. The Republicans of the State were in the habit of following the lead of that distingushed Republican, who for four years past has given the State of New York the best administration in history—the Honorable Charles F. Hughness-Huette, a short by magistrate, is transported, a short by out of the political arena, and the fact of his going leaves a great gap and a greater burden of responsibility on the organization of the Republican party itself, which we of the county of New York have to assume our share, and which I feel confident we will be able to do. "I in assuming the burden of the county charismantship, no pledges were asked of me as to what lines I was to follow, but it was understood that the organization should be led along the lines of progress and should not go backward, but should keep abreast of the times. I am not a reformer, in the sense of wishing to overthrow existing conditions in a day, or expecting to find men other than human beings, but I am determined that so long as I am chairman of this county committee its march shall be a march of progress, along lines of progress politically, in that we may procure better government in the city and State of New York.

I include the disfranchised white man as well as the Negro, because I take it that we are interested, first of all, in democracy. South and North, and we can hope for justice neither for Negroes nor for the poorer class of white men, nor for the women of the factories and shops, nor for the children of the cotton mills. For true democracy is a spiritual relationship." Representative Bennet of New York, who is the author of bills to reduce Southern representation in Congress, because of the South's violation of the Fourteenth and Fifteenth Amendments to the Constitution, declared that he would continue to introduce the bills as long as he was in Washington, and that eventually they would be passed. He said that the situation under which 1,200 men in Mississippi could elect a Congressman, while it took 75,000 votes in the Senate to elect one was injurious to the liberty of the American voter, and that every American was entitled to demand suffrage on an equal basis with his fellows irrespective of color, and took issue squarely with the preceding speaker, Clarence Darrow of Chicago, some of whose remarks seemed to indicate an approval of lynching, provided white men were lynched as well as black, and who decried the courts as not much better in their wisdom than lynching mobs. 493 Seventh Avenue, between 36th and 37th Street Camp chairs to Hire.
