GRANDFATHER CLAUSE INVALID
Judge Thomas J. Morris Rules That the Federal Law is Supreme
FAR-REACHING DECISION
Court Holds XVth Amendment is Supreme Law of the Land and Applies to All Elections
MARYLAND NEGROES WIN
Question of Negro Disfranchisement Probably Has Been Settled For All Times—Registers Lose Annapolis Case.
Special to THE NEW YORK ACE.
Baltimore. Md. November 1—Judge Thomas J. Morris, of the United States Carcourt Court, handed down an elaborate opinion last Friday holding that the Annapolis Grandfather act is invalid and in conflict with the Fifteenth Amendment, which is the supreme law of the land and applies to all public elections.
It was also ruled that the petitioners are entitled to sue for damages by reason of the attempt of the registers to deprive them of their votes.
The decision rendered by Judge Morris is far-reaching in importance, and renders void all similar election laws applying to municipalities in the State of Maryland.
It is the first time the question has been raised properly and directly passed by a Federal tribunal.
Edgar H. Gau believes that the decision of Judge Morris settles for all times the question of Negro disfranchisement in the State.
The court also holds that the Federal tribunal has jurisdiction, inasmuch as the act violates the Fifteenth Amendment, which Congress, by statute, is authorized to enforce
The original action brought against the Annapolis registers was based on their refusal to register three colored men because they could not comply with the provision which required them to have been able to vote in 1868, or if not then, that their ancestors must have been eligible to vote. Anderson, one of the colored men, could not have voted at that time because of his race and color, and Howard and Brown, two others, were denied registration because their father and grandfather respectively could not, on account of race and color, have so voted.
The point was then made that in refusing to enroll these men and depriving them of their right to vote, the registers had violated the Fifteenth Amendment, the plantiffs having met every other requirement of the law entailing them to registration.
The Demurrer
To these declarations the defendants interposed a demurrow on the following grounds:
1. That said declaration is insufficient in law and bad in substance.
2. That said declaration fails to show any ground of jurisdiction in this honorable court over or in respect to the parties, matters and things set forth therein.
3. That by the laws under which the defendants were appointed and acting were of a judicial nature, and that they could not be held legally responsible or anything more than an honest, faithful exercise of judgment, and as there was no allegation of malice in their refusal to register the men they were to register, that as the declaration avers that the law itself is unconstitutional and void, the registrators had no authority and were charged with no duty to register the plaintiffs and were not, therefore, legally liable.
4. That the registers could not have acted without incurring the criminal penalties imposed for a violation of the act.
Right of Action.
Passing on the first proposition, that the declarations are insufficient in law because they do not allege malice, the court says
It is true that in refusing registration the plaintiffs the registrates were in their official capacity, and that by the law of Maryland under which were acting they were required to refuse registration to the plaintiffs, in my judgment there are considerations which affect the provision.
The provision of the State law under which they acted in refusing registration is a solid provision. It affords protection, and if by a valid letter from the United States a right of letter from a denial of registration, then both of action is based upon such letter and is referable to it and is powered by its terms.
The consideration of the question for not the provisions of the law which the plaintiffs were denied registration, and, in consequence, denied be to vote, is a solid provision to the foundation of these suits and of necessity be dealt with at trial. When cited sections 1 and 15 of the Fifteenth Amendment, and also with Section 2004 of the Revised Statutes, which act Congress and enforce the amendment Concerning the court referred to Section 20 of the Revised Statutes, which makes the provisions of these suits and privileges liable in any other redress. Lastly, the court
The New
quoted clause 16 of Section 629 of the Revised Statutes, giving to circuit courts original jurisdiction in all such cases.
Intent of the Law.
Basing his decision on these laws, the court proceeds as follows.
the court proceeds as follows
Prior to January 1, 1868, by the Constitution of January 1, 1868, by the "white" male citizens of the United States having the required length of residence were entitled to vote, and therefore, by the letter of the Maryland law, prior to January 1, 1868, the plaintiff. Anderson, being a black man, was not entitled to vote, and the defendants, upon not being descendants from persons who, being "white," were entitled to vote, were likewise not entitled to vote, and the defendants, upon that ground solely, denied to the plaintiffs registration.
Upon this state of facts and of the grounds of the law, have not the defendants contrary to that law, discriminated against the plaintiffs in denying them the right to vote because of their race and color, and have not the statutes enacted for that purpose given them a right of action?
It is true that the words race and "white" are used in the name of Maryland, but the meaning of the law is as plain as if the very words had been made use of, and it is the meaning, intention and effect of the law, and not its phraseology, which is important. No other possible means for this prosecution has been suggested except discrimination which by it is plainly indicated.
This being so, what is the effect of the Fifteenth Amendment? It is declared by the Supreme Court to have the effect of obliterating from the statutes so much of their provisions as created so much of the additional laws as Delaware 103 U. 320.
The court quoted a decision by Chief Justice Waite in the case of the United States va. Reese and another by Justice Scalia in the case of Virginia which it in held that there is a limitation in the power of the States on their exercise of the rights to prescribe qualifications of voters in their own elections, and while the Fifteenth Amendment restricts an affirmative right to vote it prohibits discrimination against him. The court then says That the Fifteenth Amendment has proprio vigore, the effect of eliminating the affirmative right to vote in all State Constitutions and Laws in fixing the qualifications of voters has been fully recognized by the Court of Appeals of Maryland in numerous cases. Schaeffer va. Gilbert. 73 Md. 84; Schaeffer va. Scalia. 74 Md. 826; Hardman va. Young. 84 Md. 179; Pope va. Williams. 98 Md. 59
Registers are Liable.
It is therefore apparent that in enforcing the discriminating provisions of the State statute, the registers were doing and intended to do an not forbidding act for doing which the State statutes could afford them no protection.
It is suggested in argument that if the clause in question of the Maryland statute, is by the Fifteenth Amendment rendered unwieldy, the whole statute would be deemed to have no power to register anyone under it. This was held in Giles va. Harness, 189, U. S. 475, where the complainant alleged that the whole registration scheme of the Alabama Constitution was a fraud on the Constitution of the State, and that the court in an equity suit to so declare, at the same time, that the complaint be registered. The court held that if the complainant's contention was sustained and the whole scheme declared void, the complaint of law for registering him at all.
The plaintiffs make no such allegation or contention in this case. The law is recognized as valid in all its provisions, except the one which discriminates; and the plaintiffs allege that the defendant acted wilfully, maliciously, fraudulently or corruptly in order to endure a legal obligation which they would have been entitled to register.
We are now to consider whether it was a requisite of good pleading that the declaration should allege that the defendant acted wilfully, maliciously, fraudulently or corruptly in order to endure a legal obligation which they would have been entitled to register.
It is to be observed that there can be no right of action under the Fifteenth Amendment and these sections of the Revised statutes, unless a discriminatory and denial was in pursuance of a State law.
Therefore, if the defendant's contentions could be upheld, the defendant in such a suit could always plead that he did not act maliciously or willfully or in bad faith, because an action in such a suit was not made of the State. The purpose of Congress in these sections is distinctly stated to be to give a right of action and an effective safeguard against deprivation of a right by the enforcing of a statute of the State, and when it says (Section 1579) that "every person in any State subjects or causes to be subjected any citizen of the United States to deprivation of any right, privileges or immunities secured by the Constitution and laws, shall be liable to the party injured in an action at law" what can it mean but that the enforcement State law does not apply, which relates to the cause of action? Now could it be made to appear that the officer appointed to enforce a State law

WASHINGTON PARTY TOURING N. CAROLINA
Educator Receiving a Rousing Welcome Throughout the State
HIS ADDRESS AT CHARLOTTE
Says Schools Are Cheaper Than Jails and Penitentiaries—Sherman and Washington Exchange Greetings.
Special to THE NEW YORK AGE
Sabshire, N. C., November 1. With the close of the second day of Dr Washington's tour through North Carolina, indications point to record breaking achievements in everything that is outlined in the purpose of these occasional excursions throughout Southern territory by the acknowledged leader of the Negro race.
The educator's opening speech at Charlotte Friday night showed conclusively that he is more and more wedded to the policy that preaches the wisdom of the Negro remaining in the South and working out his destiny on Southern soil, and he has brought back from his recent trip abroad a large fund of information that is conclusively used in comparisons between the relative conditions of the "man farthest down," in America and the "man farthest down" in other lands.
Committee on Arrangements.
The arrangements for the North Carolina trip were made by Bishop George W Clinton, Messrs John Merrick and C C Spaulding, of the North Carolina Mutual and President Association, Durham, N C, and were admirable in every respect. A standard Pullman drawing-room sleeping car was placed at the disposal of the party, and the frequency of trains either way on the main line of the Southern Railway enables the party to make from three to four stops a day. So far, Dr Washington has spoken in Charlotte, Concord, Salisbury, High Point, Winston-Salem and Greenburso At every point the party has met a rousing reception and a genuine welcome.
At Charlotte, Biddle University was visited; at Concord, Scotia Seminary; at Salisbury, Livingstone College; at High Bridge, the High Point Normal and Industrial Institute; and at Greensboro, Bennett College and the State A. M. College for boys.
An interesting feature of the trip was the request of Vice-President Sherman, at Salisbury, who was making political speeches throughout the State to be personally introduced to Dr Washington Directly on reaching Salisbury, the car containing the Washington party backed up against the private car in which Vice-President Sherman was traveling and during the time, the second official of the nation expressed a desire to be introduced to the first Negro in the land. When the desire of the Vice President was carried the two distinguished Americans chatted cordially for a few minutes, while the immense crowd cheered vociferously
Members of the Party.
In the party besides Dr Washington, are Emmett J. Scott, his secretary, Nathan Hunt, stenographer, J H Washington, Dr. J. A Kenny, resident physician, and C W Greene, in charge of truck gardening, Tuskegee Institute, Major R R. Moten, and Prof W T B Williams, Hampton Institute, Hampton, Va, W Sidney Puttman, architect, Washington, D C. Rev Richard Carroll, President Negro State Fair, Columbia, S C., Dr E H Clement, Editor The Star of Zion, Bishop George W Clinton, Lawyer, Saunders, Charlotte, S C., D A E. Dringer, Greensboro, John Merrick, and Spauling, Durham, Dr S A Peeler, President Bennett College, Greensboro, Dr W McCorey, President Biddle University, Charlotte, R W Thompson, Washington, George F King, Greensboro, and Horse D Slatter, newspaper correspondents, and others.
Address at Charlotte.
Dr. Washington addresses at Charlotte was delivered under suspicious circumstances, to an audience of about four people, half of whom were white. He was introduced by the mayor, and among other things said.
In the Southern States, I think I am safe in saying that there are nine million of black people, and sensible men to-day will not try to argue that these people are not here to stay for all time. Since the only rational attitude for one to take is one which will result in making the Negro more intelligent more skilful more useful and more law abiding. It is also equally important that all are that since the two races will for ever keep together that it will for ever keep between the two races. The worst enemy of the Negro is the man who unnecessarily attra up racial strife and the worst enemy of the white man is the individual who unnecessarily attra up a feeling of hatred and bitterness between the races.
While I have not been very much in the State of North Carolina, I have kept in close touch with the progress which our race is making in this State. I have noted with interest the friendly relations that exist for the most part between black citizens and white citizens in North Carolina, and I know of a more friendly than they are in this State.
Feeling Between Races in Southern States.
I have studied the conditions of black races in most parts of the world, and I am frank to say that I know of no portion of the civilized or uncivilized world where there are so many white people residing by the side of so
many black people where the relations, all things considered are so satisfactory and friendly as they are between the two races right here in our Southern States. This statement, I make, despite my knowledge of the fact that there is often wrong oppression, and that we practiced racism, and that there is a chance we could be better conditions will be equally satisfactory, but we are on the road to progress, and while we are making progress there is always encouragement.
Throughout the North, and especially in Europe, I find that the true condition as to the relations between the white man and the black man in the South is not always understood. This comes about by reason of the fact that the worst things that happen in the South are directly related to the best things that occur are seldom heard of outside of our communities.

SAYS "SOMEBODY LIED"
Edward H. Davis, *Motim of Joke*, Claims He Is Not a Groom as Reported—Admits He Went to Bedford But Denies Having Gone on a Honeymoon.
Edward H. Davis, 1826 West 134th street, is usually of a funny disposition, but for the past week he has exhibited a grouch that reminds some of his friends of the one possessed during the early days in July by one James J. Jeffries. Mr Davis says there's a reason for his present disposition, which is suggestive of your grapep, claiming that he has been made the victim of a joke—a box in which he has been introduced to the world as a married man.
Not that Mr Davis has any objections to being a Benedict, but he feels somewhat chagged, irritated and embarrassed to think that friends have circulated the report that he was recently married to a charming young lady when he has not realized such a blissful experience.
In a letter to THE *AGE* Mr Davis gives his views, without reservation, on the subject at issue, becoming figurative and epigrammatic in form, and ending with the pointed and emplished charge: "Somebody lied."
In last week's issue of THE *AGE* the following announcement was made:
Misa Nellie Powell, daughter of Mrs. Amanda Powell, of 32 West 132d street, was married to Mr. Edward Davis, president of the Green Dragon Association, on Monday, October 11, 2014, wedding of the Union Baptist Church assisted by the Rev. Dr. Eppa. The ceremony took place at the home of the bride's mother. Mr and Mrs. Davis are well known in society of the younger set in New York, and will leave in a few days in Edford, Mass., on their honeymoon here will be the guests of Mrs. George Smith, of Cedar street.
Mr. Davis Explains.
Mr Davis, who says he has been made the victim of a joke by friends, admit that he went to New Bedford a few days ago, but made the trip alone and was perfectly obvious of connecting the trip with sentimental reasons. In his letter to THE AGE Mr Davis made it known that because of the joke he has been struggling in the depths of despair, and writes as follow
Concerning the Davis-Powell wedding, E. Harding Davis wishes to state emphatically that he is not the man—the Edward Davis—who was reported married on October 17. Not that that he has anything in particular against the lady in question, and feels flattered to have it thought that he had all the money he had for the young lady. Miss Powell, is a most desirable person to be adapted, or adopted. Nevertheless, he wishes to acquaint his numerous friends, and lady friends in particular, that he feathert to take the step, and at present he is as free as numbered as he ever was, even as the birds and bees and the breezes that blow.
It is true that he took a trip to New Bedford to visit his cousin, Mrs. George B. Smith, on Codar street, but he took it by his lonesome car and refused to refuse to shine, not even a glimmer. Just a little sorry joke by one of his joker friends, and he has a bunch of jokes in his desk, but hat but not least, all he knew is why is just this—that somebody lied.
It is said that the young lady in question is also very much embarrassed over the joke, which is not regarded as being very funny by her.

Negroes Pleased Over Probable Appointment of Wm. H. Lewis
Will Be Most Important Federal Position Ever Given a Negro—Career of Future Assistant Attorney-General.
Special to THE NEW YORK AGE.
Washington, D. C. Nov. 2.—The announced intention of President Taft to appoint Hon. Wm. H. Lewis, of Boston, to the position of Assistant Attorney General has aroused the greatest interest, and called forth the highest commendation among the one hundred thousand Negroes of Washington. The effort of a few ultra anti-Negro newspapers to dissuade the President from his intention to appoint Mr. Lewis by suggesting the scare-crow "social equality," intimating that in this position he will come in contact with cabinet members and diplomats, will fail of its purpose.
When Ralph W. Tyler was appointed Auditor for the Navy, the same newspapers reminded the public that as Auditor he would be brought in contact with admirals and commandants, intimating that the position would suggest social equality, yet Mr. Tyler has filled acceptably the position, without friction, and without having given Washington's aristocratic and exclusive social circles the least alarm. In fact they do not, socially, know he is here.
Mr. Lewis, diplomatic and tactful as he is, will fill his position with credit and honor, and without the least jar to social conditions.
The Washington Evening Star, whose White House news is regarded as ecathedra, had the following to say on the Lewis appointment.
There has been no change in the plans of the White House as to the appointment of W. H. Lewis, the Negro lawyer o Boston, as assistant attorney general, a higher governmental position than any heretofore given to a colored man. The appointment will be made in due time is not in the interest to cause friction Lewis is said to be diplomatic enough to conduct his position without offense to anybody. Protests against the appointment will not avail. It is known, unless they are sufficiently well informed, that incompetency or lack of character.
Protests simply on the ground of color will not be considered by the President, whose aim is to raise the standard of Negro office holdings in the state and to signal service to the mce. The inability of a fight on the confirmation of Lewis by southern Democrats is already foreseen, but to win in such a fight in the Senate it would be necessary to show incapability or incompetence. As to the possibility of friction when Lewis goes into office it is pointed out that Ralph W. Tyler an Ohio colored man, has been no editor for the Navy Department for a number of years and has not the slightest interest in the affairs and that it has been the same in other positions held by colored men in and out of the District.
Bostonians Pleased with Appointment
Bostonians Pleased with Appointment
The citizen of Boston will be
certainly compliant with word Mr. Lewis as
the holder of the highest government
office ever given to one of his color for
his record as a student and football
player at Amherst and Harvard made
him respected by all who came in con-
tact with him. He has done brilliant
work as a lawyer since his graduation.
Mr. Lewis was born the son of a poor
Negro minister in Portsmouth, Va,
forty one years ago. On account of
his lack of funds, his father had diffic-
ulty in supporting his son even through
the grammar school, and when it came
to high school the tussle was severe. But he had a splendid physique, great endurance and the will to persist. Time and again he had to leave school in order to support himself, but he always came back.
When he passed the Amherst College entrance examination Lewis was older than the average run of students there. He had little money, but scurried around for work outside of lecture hours with success, waiting on table among other jobs. Then he was "discovered" by an Amherst football coach. His modesty had prevented him putting himself forward as a player, but as soon as his brawny figure had done duty a few times at the position of center his reputation was made.
The Negro became very popular among the Amherst students, as he also did at the Harvard Law School, where he entered after being graduated from Amherst in 1893. Lewis played center on the Harvard football teams of 1899 and 1893, doing great execution against state opponents. The style was his speed in getting down the field under kicks, sometimes arriving at the ball before his own ends. He was one of the Harvard coaches for several years after graduation until the pressure of his legal work became too great.
Lewis served one year as a member of the Massachusetts Legislature. In 1903 he was appointed an Assistant United States District Attorney and has since then been connected with the Boston office. He is married and resides in Cambridge.

BENNETT FOR CONGRESS
Nominated to Success Olcott, He is Making a Good Fight—Graduate of Fisk, He Has Been a Consistent Friend to Negroes.
No contest in local politics has more interest for the colored people than the contest in the 15th Congressional District where, in that Republican stronghold so long represented in the Congress by J. Van Vechten Olcott, William M. Bennett, champion of the people, is making an earnest and brilliant canvass against Tammany Hall on the one hand and lukewarm Republicans on the other. Mr. Bennett has made for himself a reputation as a legislator who was not afraid to legislate, nor afraid to stand out against those whom he thought were desirous of legislating for interests other than the people's. His years at Albany have been years of service to the State. If the people love him for what he has done for them, they may also love him for the enemies he has made in the course of his work.
In the last primary battle on the west side Mr. Bennett defeated Mr. Olcott for the nomination for Congress. It is doubtful if any one else in that district could have wrested the nomination from Mr. Olcott, not only one of the real prominent Republicans in New York, but one of the influential members of the congress. Two伏 Supported Olcott in that contest. The people supported Bennett. Titin Work with the people. Mr. Bennett is a graduate of Fisk University, the prestigious university in the South, founded primarily for the education of colored young men and women. His other was missionary, and taught them being missionary, and taught them the missionary and educated with the class of Mr. Walker T. Washington then Miss Murray T. Murray. His friendship for colored people has continued unchanged of undisturbed through all the years.
Mr. Bennett is a Republican. He is a strong character true in experience, with a future full of promise to his party. He has been tried. He has been found true. Colored men ought to vote for him with pleasure and with pride.

TRUE REFORMERS' BANK SUSPENDS
Closing of Institution a Sensation in Colored Banking Circles
Examiners Do Not Think Depositors Will Be Much Embarrassed By Bank Closing
True Reformers Will Probably Continue to Do Business As An Individual—Bank Will Not Resume Business.
Special to THE NEW YORK AOB.
Richmond, Va., Nov. 1—Quite a sensation was created in colored banking circles last week by the announcement that the True Reformers' Bank, located in this city, had been closed and that a receiver had been appointed to take charge of the affairs of the insolvent institution.
The bank was closed October 28 by order of the Chancery Court of Richmond, and William A. Moncrew was made receiver.
For several months rumors have been current that the affairs of the bank were in an unhealthy condition, but many were under the impression that with the new change in management by the order several weeks ago that eventually the institution would be put on a thriving business basis.
The Savings Bank, Grand Fountain, United Order of True Reformers, had already called a meeting of stockholders for November 30, at which an election of officers was to be held. Another important matter to have been considered was the adoption of the policy as defined by the Bureau of Insurance, which prevents fraternal orders and insurance companies from operating banks.
Investigation by the State Bank Examiners shows that the True Reformers' Bank has been insolvent for a number of months. However, it has been given out that the depositors will not be embarrassed by the crash; and if so but we will. According to sworn statements, the bank had $290,468.34 on deposit, of which amount $27,000 belonged to the society. The order issued last week by Deputy Insurance Commissioner J. N. Bremman in revoking the license of the True Reformers' Bank is said to be final. In the future all fees and dues of applicants initiated are to be returned at once. No applications for beneficial membership in any branch of the order must be considered in Virginia while the suspension order is operative. While prospects are not bright relative to the bank resuming business, the heads of the order are confident that conditions will be such as to permit the True Reformers to continue doing business as an individual organization.
Formal Order Issued.
The formal order issued by Deputy Commissioner Brenaman on October 26, revoking the license of the True Reformers' Bank, reads as follows: October 26, 1910. To the Grand United Order of
To the Grand United Order of
Burrell,
Secretary, Richmond, Va.
This is to notify you that the license of the Grand United Order of True Reformers to transact business in this State as a fraternal beneficiary association is set up on account of the gross mismanagement. If it misapplies of its present and former management in safeguarding its funds. The fees and dues of all applicants for beneficial membership who are initiated into the organization on or after this date in Virginia must be immediately returned to the applicants. No applications for beneficial membership in any branch of the association must be considered nor are invitations permitted within the confines of Virginia while this order is effective. This order will remain effective until the affairs of the Savings Bank of the True Reformers and of the Reformers Morristown and Indian Association are liquidated, with or without or otherwise on deposit in said bank and other assets of the Grand United Order of True Reformers in the possession of said bank have been returned to the association (P.O. Box 145 AMAN, Dep. Commissioner of Insurance). The Bureau of Insurance has given out the statement that examiners have disliked the fact that the True Reformers' Bank is holding $7,000 worth of checks drawn by the order to pay insurance claims, which the institution has been unable to bear. It is said that other unpaid claims are owed amounting to $120,000.
Since the election of A W Holmes as head of the order in the place of Rev W L. Taylor, several weeks ago at the biennial session of the Grand Fountain, the members and friends of the order have been optimistic as to its future. Even under the present discouraging circumstances it is thought that the True Reformers will be able to keep the fraternal branch intact.

fwo hundred strong, with, thelr tnvited
guests. Rev. Powell paid a, glowing
tribute to the life of B EK Bruce,
‘ehowing that he forged his way from
the slave plantation to a seat in, the
United States Sedate, and declared
that his achievements should be an
inspiration to every Negro youth in
America. The collection for the day
was $11.66.

"The Negroes are now Americans.
Their ancestors came here years ago against their will, and this is their only country and their only flag."
"Any recognition of distinguished Negroes, any appointment to office from among their number, is properly taken as an encouragement and an appreciation of their progress, and this just policy shall be pursued."
"Personally, I have not the elightest race prejudice or feeling, and recognition of its existence only awakens in my heart a deeper sympathy for those who have to bear or suffer from it, and I question the wisdom of a policy which is likely to increase it."
Extracts from the Inaugural Address of William H. Taft.
ELECT STIMSON GOVERNOR.
Theodore Roosevelt is one of the very best friends the Negroes have ever had Theodore Roosevelt is unreservedly committed to the election of Henry L. Stinson as Governor of the State of New York THE ACK stands with Mr. Roosevelt in his advocacy in the election of Mr. Stinson Nothing would be more discouraging than for the Negro people of New York State not to rally to Mr. Stinson's standard and to the support of the Republican ticket. THE ACK whole ticket from beginning the issues are clean cut as between the Republican party and the Democratic party and there should be no hesitation on the part of the Negro voters of the State as to which side they should support.
We do not altogether follow Mr Douglass in his statement that "the Republican party is the ship, all else the sea," but we do stand by the Republican party as at present constituted and managed and urge our people throughout the State to help roll up a majority for Stimson so large and so overwhelming that no one shall ever be able to bring against us a charge of ingratitude. The man who stands for the "square deal" and that the door of opportunity shall remain open to the Negro, needs and deserves at this time the earnest support of every Negro voter
What is true of Mr. Stimson as a clean, able, courageous man, is also true of his associates on the ticket, from Koenig down. Standing by Koenig is standing by a friend, and standing by his friends is to stand up for him in a courageous and effective manner. It has been many a season since the Republican party had a stronger array of men upon a State ticket. Further and finally, what rhyme or reason can use the Negro to support the party that has done all that has been done against them, or to desert the party that has done all that has been done for them?
To kill off Jim Crowism, first kill off the party that has fathered it. Vote the straight Republican ticket without a scratch.
TALK VS. DOING
Manhood rights is the slogan among a certain element of Negroes who represent themselves as alone in standing for the eternal verities. They are supported in the main by a class of white men who are misled by the term "manhood rights." The Age believes in "manhood rights," but confesses that it has not been able altogether to understand just what our friends mean by the term when they use it. As interpreted by the blatant would be claimers as well as by hundreds of others who use it, it is a term which is presumed to mean the ability as well as the inclination to do as one pleases.
We have already published in these columns extracts from the special cable dispatches of The New York World, The New York Times and other great metropolitan newspapers, from Denmark, describing how recently Booker Washington was given a private audience by the King of Denmark, and how in the evening of the same day he was entertained at dinner by the King and Queen of Denmark
Now, one does it to Mr. Washington ton talking a great deal about manhood rights," but it is inevitable that when ever he cares to assert his rights by actually doing a thing, he does not hesitate It is noticeable that, in his own way, without noise, without talking about "manhood rights," without bark or bite, Mr. Washington dines where he pleases, he rides in Pullman cars when he pleases, he lives at the best hotels in the country when he pleases, but one does not hear him indulging in cheap talk about "rights." Instead of talking about it, he actually does the thing. We wonder
---
if in this case, doing is not more valuable to the Negro race than talking? If the friends who continually talk about "manhood rights" mean that one may do as he pleases, it would seem that Mr. Washington believes about as much in the "manhood rights" of the Negro race as any of that wondrous number that has secured a "copyright" on the term.
VOTE FOR BENNETT.
William M Bennett is the candidate for Congress for the Fifteenth Congressional District of New York City. He is the regular Republican nominee. No man who is a candidate for Congress in New York has a stronger claim upon the colored vote than Mr. Bennett
Mr Bennett is one of the few strong, clean white men in America who is a graduate of a Negro College. His father for years was one of the professors in Fisk University. Instead of going off to a white college which he might easily have done, Mr Bennett chose to take his college course at Fisk University, and to graduate with colored students. This action in the youth indicated the character of the man. Certainly no Democrat that we are acquainted with has more or as much interest in the welfare of the colored voters of the Fifteenth District than Mr Bennett, and we strongly urge every colored man, with any degree of race pride, to go to the polls on November 8 and cast his vote for Mr Bennett, the regular Republican nominee. He is all right and is a sincere friend of the Negro.
The colored people have never been accused of ingratitude, and here is a chance to prove that they are not only grateful to Mr. Bennett for not being ashamed to study at a colored college and graduate with colored classmates, but that they are grateful to his father for the long years of hard, faithful service which he gave to the race at Fisk University.
DEPENDING ON OTHERS.
The Negro race has learned its less well and is not to be deceived at the present time into believing that any outside influence is going to do much for it in getting upon its feet. In the old days of reconstruction there was always dangling before the eyes of the race some great benefit which the organization or that party was about to bestow upon the race by getting Congress to pass this or that law. In every case, however, where the race instead of depending on its own efforts to do something, depended upon some individual outside of the race or some organization outside of the race to confer upon it some benefit by reason of a law that Congress or some other organization would pass, the race was deceived and eventually learned that they must depend upon themselves. What was true then, is true to-day.
No matter how much people stand up and talk about "manhood rights" and constitutional rights, womanhood rights and all the rest of it, every sensible Negro knows that the last 25 or 30 years have taught him the lesson that he him self must secure his rights with his own achievements. THE AGE believes thoroughly in the enforcement of the Constitution of the United States, believes thoroughly that no racial line should be drawn either in making or enforcing a law, but THE AGE knows, as every colored man in America knows, that racial success, like individual success, must come from with in rather than from without.
A LITTLE MAN FROM THE SOUTH.
Suddenly and without notice, a little fellow has appeared in New York from Georgia, and before he has had time to secure a room or even a boarding place or registered or cast a ballot he has issued instructions in the form of a circular letter to the colored voters of New York State, telling them how they should cast their ballots during the coming election. He has all at once challenged the political leadership in this State of Chas W Anderson, who is the recognized political leader of the Negroes of the State, and who has won his title through many wars.
This little fellow does not stop at this. He advises the colored people of New York State to vote the Democratic ticket. We hazard the question as to whether there is a single voter in this State who will be controlled by the advice from such a source. Every colored voter in New York understands that the Democrats have passed every Jim Crow law that has been passed in any State in the Union Democrats, not Republicans, enacted the laws to disfranchise colored men, and every mob in the Southern States organized to lynch or burn a Negro has been organized by Democrats. Under the circumstances we question whether this little fellow from Georgia had better not attend to the public here to attend to tolerate the ties at home to supplant such a leader, true, long standing political leader, Chris W Anderson and those who have a support him.
The Negroes of Indianapolis have trained a Lotus Club. What other racial skies do noticing them names for their organizations not readies associated with distinguished organizations among white men? The Lotus Club that is New York's greatest gathering place of titles and talent.
The appointment of Hon. William H. Lewis to the position of Assistant Attorney General of the United States marks the high water of Negro official life in the United States. No colored man in the United States has ever before been appointed to so high and dignified and responsible a position. For this recognition, President Taft and Attorney General Wickersham, as well as the whole administration, deserve the thanks of the Negro race. To make such an appointment required courage and persistence of purpose.
In his inaugural address President Tatt stated that it was his purpose to place colored men in high official position. In the Lewis appointment President Tatt has fulfilled this promise, and we have nothing but gratitude to express for this recognition. What the President has done in this respect is out of the ordinary, and will go far to encourage and give heart to our people in every part of the United States. We are sure at the same time that Mr Lewis will conduct himself in this high and responsible position in such a way as to reflect credit, not only upon the race, but upon the entire country.
WHERE IS THE MONEY?
The trials and tribulations incident to high flying in finance, which are respectors of neither race nor cline, have come upon the Negro, or he upon them. They have certainly met. No sooner had our fever subsided over the triumph of W P Burgide in the management of the True Retainers, than up again it goes over the news of the failure of the True Retainers' Bank. What ails the True Retainers, once the pride pond of Virgins, and of the Negro race. Is all uttered in Denmark?
Years ago we heard the noise, and ourselves indulged the fact that this bank was is solid as the rock of Moses, and would endure the storm of years linked it was the pride of all Reformers, true and otherwise that in the Cleveland pune the Reformers. Bank was undisturbed, and that it actually helped the excited city of Richmond in time of financial need. It was our oldest bank ex-President Taylor was given to loudly claimly. Now what has he to say? What as Cashier He 'to say?' Will W P Burrellie say anything?
Why did the bank tan? Where is the money that was put there by the people and the True Reformers? Is there any loss? It so, whose loss is? Will the bank resume? In short, what may Reformers expect of the organization? Is it living, or is it dying
IN CONCLUSION
In respect of the empty challenges of the immortal son of Dawson, Benjamin J. Davis, conductor and operator of the late lamented B M C. THE AGE asks in conclusion
(1) Will he deny that he received $250 for expenses to the Atlantic City B M C when he rode on reduced tare? Is the trace that when he pays full fare attending the S C M, remaining a work at the draw but $50?
(2) Will he deny that $500 was paid out for expenses to the B M C? Will he give the tars and tec. how much he get?
With those unimportant questions answered in a pen, it never knew a wisked purpose, or touched the liquid tree of error. THE AGE will gladly close the discussion, to prepare for the tunera, expenses over the remains of the Dollar Mark in Old Fellowship.
Cardinal Logue, or some such name and title, from Ireland, on his first visit to America thinks that the Negroes were emancipated too soon. All right, Elder Logue. The English, you know, think the Irish should never be let loose at all flow about that.
---
As long as the Democratic party in the South continues to make a fool of it self, the Negroes in the North will continue keeping the Democratic party up here from making fools of them.
POLITICAL NOTES
"If all things were equal the direct primary would be a farce," said a leading colored political leader of New York the other day. All things not being equal, he continued, the only hope the New York colored Republicans can have of sending a man to the Legislature is in having the direct primary be nominated. The bosses will never move otherwise."
J K. Tener, the Republican candidate for Governor of Pennsylvania was the leader in the fight against Nogro Elks. The Nogro secret societies are up in arms against him, as are the Republican majority in Pennsylvania. It is too fear any threatened desertion of the Nogro Republicans, but if they should sulk or desert that manity would be cut down appreciably.
The S. Scripps that George H. Perry the Chairman thinks that then Pennell Chayton of Arkansas is one of the wisest of it. Republican leaders and then goes on to tell why. The story is humorous. Joking apart from Chayton in a really wise man, a great leader and a Republican to the core, he served in Arkansas during forty years of which were storms. He has been a stamina friend to the colored Republican and a bitter foetor to the Whitehite President McKinley appointed Gen Clayton Minister to Mexico. His colored protege (every great leader always has one warm colored friend) is John E. Bush, Recorder of the U.S. Land Office at Little Rock.
Thomas H. Richardson, the colored postmaster at Port Gibson, Miss., hns
died that position for thirty years, serving under Cleveland as well as under every Republican President since Hayne. Mr. Richardson was one of the few colored partisans of John A. Lynch. The late James Hill always showed what a big man he was by warding Richardson's retention. "I would rather have a colored man opposed to me than not to at all," the old Roman used to say. Next Tuesday elections will be held in thirty-eight states. A new House of Representatives will be chosen and the terms of thirty United States Senators will be determined by the political complexion of the Legislatures chosen.
The total membership of the House of Representatives is 391, a majority of which is 196. The present Congress consists of 215 Republicans and 172 Democrats. The Republicans have a majority of 43. To gain control of the House it will be necessary for the Democrats to elect 24 new members, while the Republicans may lose 19 and the Democrats may lose 18 members necessary to control, the Democrats have already gained two in the State of Maine.
South Carolina and Louisiana have each but one ticket—the Democratic. The Prohibition party has tickets in three states, the Socialists in thirty-four, the Socialist League in eight. The Independence League has a full State ticket in New York, the Keystone and the Industrial parties each have a ticket in Pennsylvania, the Republican Party has one in Nebraska and the American party (anti-Mormon) one in Utah
The number of tickets in the various States is 1. South Carolina and Louisiana. 2. Florida. Kentucky and North Carolina. 3. Idaho. Nevada and Hawaii. California. Colorado. Connecticut. Delaware, Indiana, Iowa, Kansas. Montana, New Hampshire, New Jersey, North Dakota, Oklahoma, Oregon, Rhode Island, South Dakota, Tennessee and Wisconsin. 5. Illinois, Massachusetts, Minnesota, Mississippi, Nebraska, Ohio, Texas and Utah. 6. New York and Pennsylvania.
When the editor of the Southern Reporter of Charleston rebelled against Capers the last influential colored man in the State left him Commenting on the convention on the Reporter side.
Capt Capers launched his white Republican party at Columbia yesterday. A State ex-commissioner was appointed at the organization meeting and L. W. C. Blalock of Laureus, a university, convention eliminated the Negro entitlement from the new party declaring that he is not wanted and that he is a burden around the white man's took. Though this life white movement has not the O.K. of the administration at Washington, Capers says it is only a white man's scheme for office and power

Recently Dr Pettiford's Penny Savings Bank of Birmingham and other Alabama cities had a 'deposit' rally. The results were more than satisfactory and added deposits not only to the Penny but to all the closed banks in the state. The Penny has branches in Montgomery and Sarma.
Waco has been successful in getting the big Negro bank of Texas. The Farmers Improvement Society of which Hon R S Smith is president a society unique among all Negro or organizations has decided to open up its great institution in Texas city. No one doubts that the new bank will succeed from the start.
Robert R Church Jr himself a financial wizard has been acting president of the Solvent Bank at Memphis for a number of months in the absence of his father R R Church, the wealthiest Negro in America. The Church Jr. promised to fund the memphis during the next quarter of a century He is surrounded by young men like H H Price Fert Roddy Dr George H Jackson and De Roe Saunders.
WHITE PYTHIANS LOSE
(Continued from Page 1)
Knights were represented by Judge Percy Bell and the Negro order by Judge R. F. Gochran of Meridian, with whom were associated Judge C. C. Moods and W. Percy, of the cai bar. The case was argued with usual force and ability by all the attorneys. Judge Gochran's argument being pronounced by all who heard it as very able. The fallacy of attempting to bring this case into the sentimental race who has been attempted in some quarters was expelled by Judge Gochran, who is one of the stunchest and most active Volunteer men in the State.
In his closing remarks he said
My political opinions and preferences are well known. My position on the race question is equally well understood, but this is a court of justice, where all men stand and should stand upon an absolute equality before the law. The Negroes in Mississippi do not sit and should not, they do not sit upon our juries and they should not, but they do come into this court asking for the white man's justice which has been the best and proud of our race and they are entitled to the adult rights of the State in that we put the black man in the court of justice when for white men we court the administration of the white man's duty justice in the Negro's strong in these demands to elevate and build up the hope that we make a white man governor.
Lynch Defends Moseley
To the Editor of The Age
Str. In your issue of the 10th that I saw an editorial illustration to my State Mississippi, in which an undocumented Injunite is done Hon. I R. Mackey who represents that State on the Republican National Committee. I have
known Mr. Mosley favorably and well for many years. While he in a Southern white Republican, he has at all times been, and I am sure he is now, opposed to drawing the color line in the Republican party.
I spent several weeks at my home a little over a year ago and while there I saw and conversed with Mr. Moseley several times, and I was pleased to find that he was just as strongly opposed to drawing the color line in the party then as he had been in the past. If any effort is being made in direction in Mississippi I am satisfied that it and is not a supporter of it. In fact if there is a white Republican in Mississippi who in anticipate of any thing of that sort I confess I have not heard of him. Mississippi, I am pleased to say, is one of the Southern States which has not thus far been cursed with that sort of political nonsense.

MacVEAGH DENIES DISCRIMINATION
Washington Nov. 11 Secretary Mugwah has issued a statement denying that there has been any discrimination against Negroes employed in the Trade Department during the Civil Department.
In the department, a commission from the Negroes in Chicago has suggested that a civil order was applied to rescued Mugwah on week in the Auditorium of the Post Office Department, the Secretary wrote a letter explaining that the order was made under the premise that the rescued servant had been in the department.
The post office department of the Treasury Department to determine against the race, write Mugwah. On the contrary, every care has been taken to avoid discrimination and to see to it that exact justice is done to all. For instance, out of sixty six colored employees in the office of the Auditorium for the Post Other Department who are eligible under civil service rules for promotion, twenty six or 99.3 per cent have been promoted since February 1995.
Secretary MacVaughan also expounded that since the administration of England successor the division over which he presided has been abolished in the organization of the Auditor's office. He also said that the division abolished in the Treasury Department he said, no colored person had been thrown out of employment.

Sermon by
CHARLES T.
RUSSELL,
Pastor Brooklyn
Tabernacle
London, October 30.—Pastor Russell of Brooklyn Tabernacle today addressed an audience of nearly four thousand people from the above text. His hearers were of all classes and very intelligent appearing. He had closest attention. He said in part.—
God has messages for those who have hearing cars at each great Dispensational change in earth's affairs. These messages have generally been in the nature of forewarning of coming distress and the reasons therefor. Such a message was given to our first parents when they were expelled from Eden—accursed would be the ground for their sakes. Thorns and thistles it would bring forth unto them. In sweat of face they should eat bread thereof until they should return to the ground, from whence they came. Another great message went forth at the time of the dood, another before the destruction of Sodom and Gomorrah, another at the close of the Jewish Age, when Jesus and his Apostles called attention to the prophecies which foretold the Divine rejection of the nation of Israel for a time and declared that all things written in the Law and the Prophets concerning them would have fulfillment, quoting the prophecy which declared that their house would be left desolate, that they would have neither prophet, nor vision, nor priest, nor ephod for many years, but that eventually God's favor would return to Israel that he would gather them again and fulfill to them everlastingly the blessings promised both to Abraham and to his descendants—"the sure mercles of David."
A week ago we considered the prophetic message, "Comfort ye, comfort ye, my people, saith your God" (Isaiah xl, 1). We noted that the due time has arrived for the fulfillment to Israel of this comforting message—that as a people the appointed time for the return of favor to them is accomplished because their two-fold disciplines for sin have been fulfilled. Thus our present day is clearly marked and the words of our text following imply that now is the time for a special message to all, in proportion as each may have the hearing ear.
It is the voice of God which calls now through various channels and agencies. It cries not from the "City Babylon the Great." It cries not from the citadel of Christendom; but from the wilderness, from those who are more or less separated; from those who have heard the voice of the Lord saying, "Come out of her, my people, that ye be not partakers of her sins, and that ye receive not of her plagues" (Revelation xvill. 4)
Prepare the Lord's Way.
The message of the hour to every hearing ear is, "The Lord whom ye seek shall suddenly come to his temple" (Malachi tl. 1). For centuries you have been praying, "Thy Kingdom come, thy will be done on earth as it is done in heaven." Now your prayer is about to be answered, whether you prayed in sincerity or in hypocrisy. The glory of the Lord is about to be revealed. "All flesh shall see it to gether." It will not be revealed merely to one nation, nor merely to one holy class. His glory will be revealed in flaming fire in judgments. All flesh shall see it—the rich and the poor, the learned and the ignorant, the holy and the unholy. But, as the Prophet Malachi declares, "Who shall abide the day of his coming, and who shall stand when he appeareth; for he is like fuller's soap in its attack upoq grease and dirt, and he is like a refiner's fire," as it melts and separates the dross of sin and iniquity (Malachi tl. 2).
The coming of a great earthly king to a city is the signal for a general cleaning up everywhere. And so the Lord declares that the message of his fast-approaching Kingdom should influence all who have the hearing ear to make preparation. To each nation it means. Set your house in order. An inspection is at hand. See that your laws are just and equitable and that they are administered justly. The same message comes to each self-governing city, and lastly, and most important of all, this message comes to each individual, and especially to all who have named the name of Christ. Or, as St Peter declares, this inspection of the King of kings and Lord of lords must begin with the house of God (I Peter iv. 17). And if the inspection be so searching that it must begin with God's saints, what could we expect of it when it reaches those who are merely monastic Christians and then the world in general. All we may expect from what the Bible visions us with one. A time of trouble such as never was since there was a nation (Daniel vii. 1). The message of this hour dear friends elsewhere stated in Hosea Wort i. 1. Seek meekness, seek righteousness. It may be that she shall be in the day of the Lord's anger. Zephaniah iii. 1.
Hidden Things to Be Revealed
The greatest Teacher the World has ever known, a Jew, eighteen centuries
ADVERTISE IN THE AGE
ago, declared prophetically of our day that every hidden thing shall be revened (Matthew x. 26). We see his prophecy fulfilling. The secrets of nations are being exposed. Infusion in its every form is being brought to light as never before. Inquiry in financial institutions and in politics and in private affairs is being remorselessly muckraked and brought to light. Expediency and policy might say, Hide these things from public gaze. But under Divine Providence the light is being turned on everywhere and hidden things of darkness are being exposed, sometimes in the evil and sometimes in the good. And sometimes, perhaps, the Adversary succeeds in making the good to appear evil. We are merely noting the general tendency—the great fact so peculiar to our day. We are not saying that every charge of fraud is borneide.
Levelling Processes Are at Work.
The great levelling processes mentioned by the Prophet may be seen at work everywhere in society in politics, in finance, in religion. A straight path is certainly being marked out in the wilderness. The people are coming to see gradually what constitutes Justice from the Divine standpoint the path that Jehovah God will take when coming to mankind to require an accounting for the blessing of religion and of enlightenments granted to humanity in this, our day. Those who point out to mankind the straight paths do not always walk therein themselves. Nevertheless, the great purpose of the Almighty is being accomplished in the exposures of sin and injustice, whether made from the Christian pulpit or from the socialistic platform or in the public press. The Divine edict is "Make straight in the desert a highway for your God" (Isaiah xl. 3,—show his path of righteousness, make it known to all the people
We should remember, however, that it is one thing to know the path of righteousness, of justice and of equity, and another thing to walk therein. Let us, my dear hearers, see to it that we not only recognize the Divine standards of righteousness and that we proclaim these to all who have the hearing ear, but let us also take heed that we practice what we preach that we be not condemned in respect to those principles which we allow and acknowledge and proclaim as the Golden Rule to others. Alas for the hypocrites who proclaim the way of the Lord to others, yet ignore that way in their own dealings. We have every reason to believe that honesty is one of the qualities which our God most highly appreciates in his creatures, hence we may be sure that hypocrisy is one of the most almighable qualities in his sight. Hearken to the words of the Great Teacher, "Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites" * * * for ye lade men with burdens grievous to be borne, and ye yourself touch not the burdens with one of your fingers" (Luke xl, 444).
Let all who have named the name of Christ, all who in any sense of the word profess to be God's people, put far from them the hypersensitive which appear so unadmirable in others. Let us be honest. Let us practice even more than we ever preached. Let all who belong to the Lord be indeed burning and shining lights in the world—examples of justice and righteousness in their homes, in their neighborhoods, in the workshop and in the markets. Let us not only proclaim and assist in making straight before our feet the pathway of our God, but let us conform our words and deeds and thoughts thereto. The general result of the uncovering of the hidden things of darkness, and the bringing of them to light, and the proclamation of the straight way of the Lord, will have a great effect, and that effect is declared by the Prophet. It will mean a Revolution in symbolical language in earthquake. Note the picture given: "Every valley shall be exalted, and every mountain and hill shall be made low, and the crooked shall be made straight, and the rough places with." Not in one instant will all the highly transformation of society be accomplished. Not at once will all the degraded members of the human family be brought to the general standard of level. Not at once will the mountains and hills (the kingdoms at princesdoms of the world) be broken down to the common level. Not at once will thus a general equalization of society be effected. But it will be tested. "The mouth of the Lord be broken it."

L. B. B. SAMETL B. RONIO. Secretary of State right to vote of the citizens of the United States on account of race or color, must be held to apply only to the right to vote at congressional elections, and does not apply to the right to vote at State or municipal elections given by the State. Amendment was proclaimed March 30, 1870, and by act of May 31, 1870. Congress undertook to exercise the powers it understood to exercise in the exercise of the powers and passed the act, now Section 2004, providing expressly that all citizens of the United States, otherwise qualified, should be entitled and allowed to vote at congressional offices, county, city, without distinction of race or color, any constitution, law, custom usage or regulations of any State to the contrary, notwithstanding
Nothing in the way of interpretation by the legislative body which itself has framed the amendment could be passed by Congress immediately upon adoption. I do not find in the case cited from the Supreme Court anything opposed to that interpretation of the amendment. It is not a tenth Amendment it is declared that the right of citizens of the United States to vote shall not be denied or abridged by any State on account of race or color it means namely the right to vote at all public elections. It is further urged by the defenders that if the Fifteenth Amendment construed to be a right of citizenship it is beyond the power of the states to go and amend it and not receive that amendment and approve it.

"HIS HONOR, THE BARBER"
URING this depressing period when musical comedy, so far as it relates to the colored Thespian, is at a low ebb, it is quite a notable event to have in your midst the largest and most representative colored show in the business. So when the Smart Set Company filled a week's engagement at the Court Theatre, Brooklyn, last week, hundreds of playgoers who have been pining all season for entertainment furnished by a colored theatrical organization, took advantage of the golden opportunity to gratify their desires, likening the visit of the Dudley aggregation to the first appearance of sunshine after a long and cloudy rainy season
Having cultivated the habit lately, by reason of conditions, of telling about the discouraging happenings in the theatrical world, it is somewhat awkward to emerge from the realm of gloom and assume a new rule that of writing in more cheerful and encouraging vein. "His Honor, the Barber," the piece presented by the Smart Set Company, is not new, and many of us have seen it a

number of times, yet the production is funnier and more enjoyable this season that ever before.
S. H. Dudley has been regarded favorably by the public as a comedian for several years, but in the past his managers have failed to surround him with the cast and chorus to which he has been entitled. This season Mr. Dudley is receiving the strongest support ever given him during his career before the footlights, and the show is not only bright and full of ginger when he is on the stage but also when he is enjoying moments of recreation in his dressing room.
Aida Overton Walker is with the company, and her work goes a long way toward making the evening's entertainment more highly appreciated than heretofore. Then there are Andrew Tribble, whose portrayal of wench characters stamp him as the best in his line; Lottie Grady, who ranks high as a depictor of ingenué roles. Ella Anderson, who has for yeags been favorably considered as a soprano soloist, besides Alberta Ormes, James Lightfoot, William Ramsey and Will Grundy, all of whom aid in the success scored by the company.
Aida Overton Walker Artistic Hit
Aida Overton Walker appears in specialties three times during the performance and she is the artistic hit of the show. In the first act she sings Golly, Ain't I Wicked," assisted by dancing girls. "Porto Rico" is sung at the end of the second act, and Miss Walker's dancing is the best she has ever done—at least it is far more taking than her version of "Salome" and the "Wilde Fire" dance. In the third act Miss Walker presents "That's Why They Call Me Shine," in male attire, which is a very fifty numbers. There is no reason, however, why she should close the second act and open the third, both numbers are strong and could be placed to better advantage.
Andrew Tribble as Babe Johnson is one of the laughing hits of the show. Some of the most ludicrous situations are between Messrs Dudley and Tribble Each year Mr Tribble is seen to better advantage in the character he plays, and he has been such an attentive student in his line of work that now he is recognized as a female impersonator of no little ability. His costumes this season are attracting is much attention as in the past. Lotte Gradys training in speaking parts affords her an excellent opportunity to play the part of Lady White which she does in a pleasing manner. Miss Grady has one song, "Rubbernecking Moon," which is very tuneful, well staged and goes big. Ella Anderson, as Widene Caroline Brown, makes a dashing and good looking widow, and in her two songs, "Conversation Lane" and "Merry Widow Brown" mentured the applause she received.
cores in her song 'Isle of Love' sung at the opening of the second act. The Smart Set chorus has never been so lively nor so good to look at as this season. Musical Director Brynn has evidently spent some time rehearsing the young men and women who now boast of being connected with the best of 'em all. S H Dudley occupies a peculiar as well as a unique position in theatricals at this time. He is the bright particular star in the colored musical comedy field and much depends on his actions in the near future. That he is the same big hit this year in 'Honor, the Barber,' goes without saying, but what we are more deeply interested in is what the comedian is going to do in the days to be as a musical comedy star.
It is reported that he will appear next season in a new show, and it the rumor is with some foundation let him look well before selecting his vehicle and supporting company. If the comedian uses judgment, next season he will find himself in the monday of his existence as a performer, for with a book written by colored librettists and a cast in which everyone who can do something out of the ordinary will be given an opportunity to do so, the production will be epoch-making in colored attire.

One Dallas little made the following comment of the show, with apologies for the use of the word 'nigger.' Did you ever watch an anime that was three parts autumn jacques,ager, aquila and one part languid, rather uncomfortable and most disdainful members of the american race at a show that was frankly and solely altogether nigger? Don't look disgusted they're pretty good stuff, those coon shows—and it's a revelation to watch the popcorn take care, an institution of plain human nature, to observe those in the pit
And then the dancing. From pleasurable days the burkwing has been his own private possession and Mr Negro 'dominian' is in his element when clines and fantastic evolutions to the rythmic fantastic evolutions to the of his companions. For humor undoled the Negro comedian is pretty apt to satisfy the fun loving hunter of amusement. There's more fun. Memorient unrestricted, abandonment of pose complete sympathy with the entertainer. No carping criticism, no subtle distinctions. Miss Dinah and Mr Muscat are there to enjoy every minute and do it. Arraigned in splendor and gorgeousness of peacock hue. Miss Dinah resigns herself to laughter and peals of the genuine sort issue from her lips while Hastus forgetting his highest of about and lets his historic tears of purity entrench leak into her jerky dangles.

CRESCENT THEATRE
A very amateurish bill was offered at the Crescent Theatre the first three days of this week. Several of the acts were more suited for "get the hook" nights than for occupying spots on a regular bill. Herbert Lewis must have changed his occupation only recently and was making his initial appearance as an actor man Sadie Jones and son, Irving, Jr, also made their debut in vaudeville, the youngster officiating at the piano while his mother sang several Indian songs. Bessie Oliver Brown, late of The Red Moon Company, rendered three songs and appeared in each number appropriately costumed. De Grace and Gordon had the best act on the bill and their skirt was received with the greatest of pleasure.

ABOUT THE THEATRES
Theatres, as a rule, are long lived, and the two oldest playhouses in America are the Walnut Street Theatre, Philadelphia, and the Savannah Theatre, Savannah, Ga. Despite the fact that so many new theatres have been built in New York in the last decade only one of the old ones have been eliminated, the Star, the Madison Square, the Manhattan, the Princess, and the Koster & Bial Music Hall in Thirty-fourth street. It has often been said that Daly's, the Bjopon, and Wallack's were also destined for the discard, but they continue to defy time and conditions undaunted. Wallack's is the only unmished theatre in New York, as the outer building was never carried above the second story, although the original points called for a handsome office building. When it was discovered that the necessary outlay of money was not justified by the probable revenue the structure was abruptly textured at the second story.
The finest theatre in London remains permanently closed, total failure. This is the Sack Theatre, which was built by a rich dentist for sentimental reasons on the site of the famous and Prince of Wales Theatre, the little old dustion in Tottenham Court Road, as it was familarly called during its prime, where the Bancrofts produced the successful comedie of T W Robberson forty years ago. The dentist had not reckoned upon the deterioration of the neighborhood however, and he built his beautiful marble playhouse on the disreputable side of Tottenham Court Road. On the east side of the thoroughfare he set the middle class in proximity to Elbe, which is now the heart of the city. The project is now

IN THE WORLD OF SPORT
With a stiff north wind sweeping Howard field, the Howard football team defeated Annapolis High School team last Saturday by a score of 16 to 0. This was Howard's first game of the season. Although the Annapolis team did not score, it was by no means a one-sided game, there being plenty of interest and dash. Annapolis was dangerous at times, but by Howard bracing up the visitors were unable to cross the goal of the blue and white
Howard played a game which was in every way satisfactory to Coach Marshall and their ardent supporters. However, the weakness at quarterback is plainly evident. The Washington player are without an experienced quarter. All three candidates were tried out. Nixon showed better generality and ability than the others, although Coppage shaded with much grit and enthusiasm. Hodge remained in the game but a short time. Another call will be made by Coach Marshall for candidates for this position. It was largely through the steady handling of the team and the spectacular kicking of Quarterback Brice that Howard was unable to score more touchdowns. He consistently kicked between forty-five and fifty yards.
Forward Pass Tried.
The game began with Howard kicking off to Annapolis twenty-yard line it was brought back five yards by Annapolis. During this quarter the forward pass was tried repeatedly by Howard, each time Stratton fumbled or failed to reach it. Although Captain Allen tore off yard after yard by his large burgundy and Terry and Gray made large gains Howard was unable to score. Quarterback Brie continually kicking them out of danger.
The next quarter began with more spirit and alertness, both teams playing a faster game. The playing of Shaughter at left end was especially noticeable. He was into every play Durrah, Howard's star tackle, gained about twenty-five yards on a forward pass which brought them nearer Annapolis goal. After repeated line plunges by Terry and Gray the ball was given to Captain Allen, who scored the first touchdown. He failed to kick goal. In this quarter Johnson was slightly injured and was replaced by J Harris who installed new hopes into Annapolis. However, they were unable to stop the inroads of Howard Ed' Gray scored the second touchdown after a line plunge. Captain Allen knocked goal this time. This ended the second quarter with the score 11 to 0.
"Tabby" Howard Showed Up Well. In the next quarter 'Tabby' Howard replaced Terry at left halfback, and Tyson and Rock' Hunt went in at end Tyson played his usual aggressive game and Howard showed plainly that he could come back' Howard showed much improvement over his last year's playing, as did Thomas at center. He was especially good on the long passes sooring a touchdown on a long pass from Gray. However, Allen failed to kick goal. The game ended 16 to 0. During the latter part of the game many candidates were given workouts and trouts. Moore, the veteran co-player, being in a strong stretching in at right quarter and Bell at right tackle Beamon was given a trout at left tackle, Carter at guard. George at end and Carmichael at tackle. Coach Marshall was very much elated over the work of the two new guards. Celland and Wiggins.

Lincoln, 21: Stentonworth, 3
Last Saturday before quite a number of Philadelphia's elite young set, the Lincoln University varsity defeated the Stentworth club of Philadelphia by a score of 21 to 3. This was Lincoln's first game of the season, and, while the contest was somewhat one-sided, it was for the most part spectacular. Lincoln received the ball, and it was not out of her possession until Bullock for Lincoln had crossed the goal for a touchdown. A goal was tried by Morris for Linne but was not kicked. The ball being brought back to the center of the field was kicked off to Scentworth but they hit it in three dunks and in a few minutes Dunn had crossed the goal for Lincoln again. There was no scoring in the second quarter, but Jenkins Armstrong Lincoln's former quarterback, had his leg broken.
In the third quarter Big Bullock scored another touchdown for Lincoln, taking the ball through the Stentonworth line by stiff arming and shaking off tackler after tackler Bigl for Lincoln kicked cool. In the last quarter Bigl Bullock ran through the line for another touchdown and during the last five minutes of play Forbes for Stentonworth kicked one of the prettiest drop kicks that has ever been seen on Lincoln's campus making the score 21-0. In the final of the alumnium Here are for Lincoln Bigl Bullock Jacobs Morris Walker French and Dunn shone most brilliantly while for Stentonworth Forbes H Duplessis Blue and Turner were stars.

The All Stars took the All Stars into the air with a thrilling return from their first game last week. They were the top of the pack with the best record of the season, that by winning the playoff game against the Wiltshire Bulls. The All Stars from the Little Rock team were the fastest team in the basketball league, the first team in the record of winning 144 games. The All Stars made a great showing, but in failing to score on critical stages and lack of sufficient physical play was the cause for the defeat. On Friday night the All Stars have

and no important address was more far-
orably commented upon by all the delegates than his. His appeal for the Christian brotherhood which would exemplify practical Christianity, including every race, was simply wonderful. The daily press gave a very full report of Dr Walker's interesting address. It was a straightfight Christian appeal for co-operation in the life and development of a race which leaves the country and its institutions. Rounds of applause punctuated his most trenchant statements showing that the heart of the great body of Christian men in America heats true to right and justice. No one can read the following resolution adopted unanimously by this consen-tion without taking fresh courage.
Resolved. In view of the urgent need for aggressive efforts among colored young men that this convention urge upon the international state and provincial committees and local boards of directions of obligation upon our associations of this work and these young men.
When it is remembered that members of other departments desired such recognition by resolution and were denied it, and the department for colored men, so recognized, it is

Dear Sir:
I have your favor of the 18th inst. enclosing blank "application for membership" which the incorporated charter association which has incorporated thereto in this society "incorporated 1910 under the laws of the State of New York," and an adjoining blank "benefit to be derived by persons joining this society." The Aulta Beneficial Society has no license to transact the business mentioned in this document from you. It has not incorporated by filing its own incorporation in this department, and I find that no certificate has been filed in the office of the Secretary of State; therefore, the statement is not true. I have this day written to the president of this society, whose office I note is at 209 West 27th street, New York City, warning us to bring to carry on the business of insurance.
Yours respectfully.

LADIES SPECIALLY INVITED!
PARENTS, YOU ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR
THE EYES OF YOUR CHILDREN.
Do you know that statistics show that over 60,000 children in the Public Schools of Greater New York have defective vision — a serious handicap in life's race? Your child may be one of those little victims with defective eyesight.
Don't neglect the eyes of your children if they are defective, for the sake of saving a few dollars! It is criminal neglect to refuse them protection from eyestrain, headaches and nervousness, when immediate and timely attention may save your child much misery and yourself future regret. Many a so-called "dull scholar" is so, because of some defect of the eyes.
If they complain that their eyes feel tired and painful and can't see the writings on the blackboard readily, bring them to me and I will tell you the exact condition of their eyes — whether they need glasses or not. All children's eyes should be examined. Scientific examination of the eyes for defective eyesight is my specialty.

STRAIGHTEN YOUR HAIR.
Not with hot irons. But do it with (Kink-no-more) the greatest hair straightening preparation on earth. Kink-no-more will stimulate the hair to harden but think about it—a preparation that all you have to do is apply it on the hair and with a little combing the hair becomes straight, but but last from sir to eight months. Wear nothing else will make it kink again after it has been straightened. Kink-no-more is the most convenient solution does it its work that one can hardly be known eyes. It works like magic, and is unique because there is not another preparation in the world that it. We offer a reward of $100 for any head of hair that Kink-no-more will not straighten.
THE PEOPLE'S PULPIT
(Continued from Pane 4)
New Kingdom of Europe, perhaps the distance between the mountain saps of autocracy and the depths of social degradation, have been lessened, so that in Great Britain, the change demanded by the new Kingdom, Messiah's Kingdom, will be less than in many other countries. Here it has some gradually.
The Glory of the Lord Revealed.
A well-known American authoress Henry Ward Beecher's Sister) once wrote some words which seem proptic:
"I have his coming judgments, as they circle all the earth.
The signs and groanings promised, to
proceed a second birth;
I read the words of conscience, in the
crumbling thrones of earth—
Our King is marching on.
*The Gentle Times* are closing, for their
kings have had their day.
And with them sin and sorrow; will forever pass away.
For the tribe of Judah's Lion, now comes to hold the sway—
Our King is marching on.
The seventh trump is sounding, and our King knows no defeat.
We will sift out, the hearts of men before
He will sift out the hearts of men before
his judgment-seat.
O! be swift, my soul, to welcome him, be
fublant, my feet

The exposure of the frailties of poor humanity—of the shams of society and of religion of and business and politics, all are constituting a great black background, against which the glories of the Lord are being revealed in striking contrast, as the critics of the world mercilessly hew to the line and lay bare the cankers in politics and pollutions of our social system. The effect of this primarily will be the arousing of the masses against the classes of privilege. Theft human idols and ideals will crumble. Their confidence in men will melt. They will give vent to what they will esteem to be a righteous indignation. And so doing they will forget that the masses are equally unrighteous, unjust, as the more favored classes, in proportion to their opportunities. Wherein they judge others they should also condemn themselves, and the result should be that mercy which the Lord enjoins.
Only those who forgive others their trespasses—who thus manifest a spirit of love and sympathy—need expect to have mercy, consideration, shown them by the new King. He will surely punish injustice and unrighteousness of word and deed and thought in the poor as in the rich, in the ignorant as in the learned, in the outwardly religious as in the outwardly profane. The message of the hour to Christian, Jew and Gentile is what it was eight centuries ago, "Repent ye, for the Kingdom of heaven is at hand." Repent and reform respecting public injustices, no matter of so long standing, no matter by whom practised and approved. Repent of and reform from and disown the rank errors to be found in so many Church creeds, dishonoring to our Creator. Let us be honest in our professions of faith. Repent as respects wrong practises which have crept into our Churches, quite out of harmony with the teachings of Jesus and the Apostles.

F THE WORLD
WASHINGTON PARTY IN N. CAROLINA
The work of the mob, the lynching bee, is widely heralded, while the quiet work of education, of civilization, of property getting, of schoolhouse building, of church building, that is going on day by day is seldom heard of. The white man who curses the Negro is heard of outside of the South, but the hundreds of white men in each community who are helping the Negro to get education build churches is seldom heard of. The time has come when we as a race should advertise our friends more and our enemies less. World Included to Let Negroes and Whites of South Alone.
There never was a time when the North, and the civilized world for that matter, was so much inclined to leave all matters that relate to the Southern white man and the Negro entirely in the hands of the South. This places around the South tremendous responsibility—a responsibility to see it that the Negro receives justice in the way of education, justice in the way of protection in the courts, justice in the way of having the law executed in the South, justice in my opinion, as the best white people in the South realize their responsibility in this respect. I believe they are gong to respond in a whole-souled manner to meet this responsibility, and they are responding in many sections to the South in a magnificent manner.
It is sometimes with races like it is with individuals. Individuals often get into the habit of parading their disadvantages before the public to such an extent that they overlook their advantages, the fundamental life of a man. I observe and study the conditions of my race in the Southern States, we have a tremendous advantage as compared with other classes of people who are in the same relative stage of civilization.
I have recently been spending two or three months in Europe observing the conditions of people because of what I have seen in Europe I return to this country more encouraged, more hopeful concerning the condition of the Negro and his future than I have ever been before. As compared with the condition and the outlook of the working classes, South European Negro has a chance in the South that is from 50 to 100 per cent more hopeful than is true of the working classes in Southern Europe.
Negro Has Opportunity to Buy Land.
Fundamentally in practically every part of the South, the Negro has a chance of purchasing land, of buying him land and town lot, of making it as impossibly good as a poor man in Europe to get land. In many cases, if he has money, the land is held in such large tracts that it cannot be bought. Here we are urged to buy land, often at prices that seem ridiculously small as compared with the price of ordinary land in Southern Europe where the price ranges in some places from $10,000 to $40,000 for farming land no better than ours.
And, wherever I go in the South, despite what may be said to the contrary regarding the relations of the white man and the black man, I find white men urging Negroes to buy land, and willing to lend him money, to give him advice and encouragement in the direction of securing a home. The man will help that direction is not our worst enemy, but our best friend.
In the matter of labor we have another tremendous advantage. The Negro in the South for the main part does not have to seek labor Work seeks him. In England where I was recently I found three and four men looking for one job. In this country, in the South, so far as the Negro is concerned, you will find conditions where you will instead of three or four men looking for a job, the job is in search of the man. We are not restricted in the South, as is true in many portions of the North and West, as to the kind of labor we engage in. Here the Negro cannot only be a farmer, but a skilled
GRAND REPUBLICAN
laborer. The ware which the ordinary Negro workman receives in the South is from three to four times as high as the ware received by the working man in Europe doing the same kind of work. That is another advantage which we should not fall to appreciate.
I have said that in North Carolina progress is being made. Let me be more definite. I find from the official records that the assessed value of Negro property in this county in 1899 the assessed value of Negro property had grown to $21,000,000. These figures do not include church property, school property, nor property owned by benevolent associations. I find, too, that in the State of North Carolina that there are five hosery乳乳 operated by Negro labor, and in one case the mill is owned by Negroes. I find that there are two hosery乳乳 operated by Negro labor, and one of these is owned by Negro capitalists. I find that in the State of North Carolina there are four banks owned and operated by members of my
Duties of the Races.
I have referred to friendly relations existing between black people and white people in this State. But for the fact that there is a large class of white people in every community, who are helping the Negro to get education to get property, his life but the existence of the work of the Southern white friends, in a State like North Carolina, it would have been impossible for us to have made this tremendous progress in so short a time, and so throughout the South, if we learn to be frank with each other, to trust each other, toIVATE love and to be trusted of each other and will teach the world a lesson as to how two races different in color, can live together in peace and in harmony and friendship
It will pay from every point of view—and from an economical point of view, for every white map in North Carolina who owns property in the country districts, to see schoolhouses. The Negro schoolhouses are provided with a schoolhouse, a good teacher, with plenty of money to sustain the school six or seven or eight months in Macon County, Alabama, where I live, the Negro schools are in session seven and eight months in the year. have good schoolhouses, good teachers and nurses in the that the Negro schools remain in the country rather flock to the cities
