DEMOCRATSHAVE TEST OF STRENGTH Insurgents and Regulars Clash at Meeting of Executive Committee CHIEF LEE TRIUMPHS Regular Forces, Led by Ralph E. Langston, Defeat Wood Faction on Every Point PRIMARIES IN SEPTEMBER Insurgents Tricked into Voting for Lake Primaries—James L. Curtis Still Leader of Thirteenth District. An attempt of a few insurgent members of the Executive Committee of the United Colored Democracy to gain control of the organization and assume leadership of the colored Democrats of New York, resulted in a complete fizzle last Thursday evening, and the regulars are more firmly seated in the saddle than ever. The fruitless efforts of the insurgents, led by Robert N. Wood and James D. Carr, to capture the machinery of the colored Democratic organization, took place at the regular monthly meeting of the Executive Committee, held at the committee's headquarters, 334 West 59th street, Ralph E. Langston, chairman of the Executive Committee, led the regular to victory, and was given valuable aid by Counsellor James L. Curtis, Anthony McCarthy, Johnnie Morris, J. S. Hill, Joseph Campbell, Burgess Holland, Charlie Warren, Thomas Jackson, W J Foye and P. B. Bailey. A significant feature of the meeting was the attitude of Chief Edward E. Lee, who, although present, did not take an active part in the committee's deliberations. Although Chief Lee was aware that the insurgents to tow the old guard and change the personnel of the Executive Committee, he did not appear to take the Wood faction seriously and took no part in the questions debated and voted on. In every instance were the insurgents defeated by a decisive vote. Their strength was first shown when a motion was made by a Wood man to substitute Mr. J Bell, Jr., as committeeman from Thirteenth Assembly District in theee of James L. Curtis. The motion is lost, the majority favoring the re-ton of Counsellor Curtis. Curtis Robukes Carr. During the debate on the police inspector Curtis administered James Carr a stinging rebuke for having questioned his leadership of the Thirteenth Assembly District, and even the few who voted with the Wood forces applauded Counsellor Curtis for his bitter execution of Carr. The regulars played a piece of politics in the insurgents relative to the question of setting the date for the hold of the primaries. Chairman Largeman and the majority of the leaders insisted the third Thursday in September the regular time. The Wood fact is been calling for an early primary. A motion was made by P.B. Bass with the primary of the United Council of Democrats he held on May 29 the regulars knowing that the insurgents would then oppose such a plan and vote for a third primary, which was desired by the old guard. When the motion was made the insurgents fell into the trap and a substitute was then made by an insurgent to hold the primaries in September, which was carried. Now the primaries will be held in September as usual, and the regulars are laughing up their sleeves at the trick played on the insurgents. The regulars won another victory when the motion of Counsellor Curtis thanked Chief Murphy for the recognition given the organization thus far and pledging the confidence of the organization in the leadership of Edward E Lee was carried, Measra Wood, Alston, McNeil and McKenzie voting in the negative. Among the other points lost by the insurgents was the motion of Robert N. Wood proceeded with the election of officers for the year. Chief Lee while elated over the result of Thursday's meeting, stated to a representative of THE Age that he was impressed at the drubbing the insurgents had received, and so confident was he that the regular organization was upheld that he took no part in the proceedings. A lawson acted as secretary during the meeting.

ROBERT G. GRATTON BURIED Deceased Was Regarded as the Most Well-to-do Negro in Newark—Funeral Largely Attended. Special to The New York Asn. Newark, N. J., April 25.—The funeral of Robert G. Gratton, one of the best known Negroes in New Jersey, and regarded as Newark's most well-to-do colored citizen, was held Saturday from Mt. Zion Baptist Church, the Rev. Mr. Brown officiating.

Father and Son Have Been Very Friendly Towards Negro—Appointed Colored Police and Firemen. Special to The New York Am. Chicago, III., April 28.—Carter H. Harrison owes his election as Mayor of Chicago for the fifth time to the colored voters of this city. The nominations in Illinois are under the primary law and at the mayoralty primaries the majority of the Negro voters not registered with the Republicans identified themselves with the Democrats and supporter Carter H. Harrison, who, with their aid won with a scant majority. On the Republican side of the fence Charles E. Merriam topped the list over the candidates that had the support of the machines. It was then that the hardest contested election that has taken place for a number of years in Chicago was fought out with its being acknowledged by all who knew that the way the colored vote would decide the election. Several reasons were advanced as to why hundreds of Negroes gave their support to Harrison. The Harrisons, both father and son, have been out and out friends of the Negro. The elder Harrison was the first Mayor of Chicago to recognize the Negro. He organized the first colored fire company Chicago had and he took the Negro stool pigeons in the employ of the police and made them regular officers of the law. Believes in Appointing Negoes to Office The younger Carter Harrison when previously Mayor had more colored men working in different departments of the city than any administration and he, at the end of his last term, made a commanding police officer of a Negro who to-day is a desk sergeant in a station in one of the most fashionable districts of Chicago. Charles E. Merriam, the Republican candidate, was never heard of previous to the election, except in connection with one of the arch enemies of the Negro in Chicago, an association called the Hyde Park Protective Association. The Hyde Park Protective Association is organized to protect that particular district from saloons and other things which they consider detrimental to the neighborhood, and it has always styled the Negro as one of the most harmful things. It tried to force all property owners and real estate agents to pledge themselves not to either rent or sell to colored people, and although the colored people that live in that section of the city are most property owners and among the best people in the city, they were accused of being everything less desirable citizens. Another instance in which the Negro voters asserted their independence was in the election of one of the aldermen. The Republican candidate had made repeated onalaughts against the colored people, and although the ward is usually Republican by about 4,000 votes, the colored voters rallied to the support of the Democratic candidate, Mr. Tearney, and in spite of the fact that the barrel was rolled through, the Democrat was elected by a majority of 4,800. DOING A BIG BUSINESS Report of North Carolina Mutual and Provident Association Shows That Concern Did Business Amounting to $245,238 Last Year. Special to Twin New York Ace. Durham, N.C., April 11—An institution national in character, and which merits a place in any discussion of the higher commercial endorsors of the Negro people, is the North Carolina Mutual and Provident Association, with headquarters at Durham, N.C., the thriftiest Negro center in the "Old North State." The article by Dr. Browner T. Washington in a recent issue of the New York Independent, calling attention to the manifold attractions of Durham, and the contrast afforded by the disasters that have befallen a number of unsound racial enterprises throughout the country, emphasize in no uncertain way the commercial solidity represented by the North Carolina Mutual and Provident Association. To refer to this association in these columns at this time is to pay a tribute to the worth of men who are succeeding because they are doing business on a firm business basis and to sound a note of encouragement to the matters that they may not be discouraged by reason of the failures that have come to other concerns that neglected to properly safeguard the interests of their investors. The abstract of the Association's report for the year ending December 31, 1910, discloses a volume of business that should be a source of pride to every healthy-minded Negro in the land, also of which the leaders of the movement have every reason to be proud. The books for the year show a total of business done amounting to $245,238, an increase of $25,193 over the previous year. The Association was organized in 1899, and the first year's business amounted to $840. The next year it was $1,265. Each year the Association has enjoyed a steady and substantial growth, until the highwater mark in 1911 has been reached, with evidences that there is no limit to the position that the future holds out. With the enormous sum of $277,986.5 carried forward for the year, as shown in the report to the Actuary of the Institute, the amount of the state of North Carolina on an unease account of the The North Carolina Mutual and Provident Association is directed by the most reliable colored men in the South. They have character, brains, and business acumen of the highest order. They enjoy the confidence and esteem of both races. Their methods are the cleanest and their credit is gilt-edged. The official roster is as follows: John Merrick, president and founder, A M. Moore, M.D., secretary and treasurer; C. C. Spavding, vice-president and general manager. Directors John Merrick, A M. Moore, M.D., C. C. Spalding, E R. Merrick, J. M. Avery and I H. Garner. MCKINLAY'S POPULAR MOVE Collector of Port of Georgetown Appoints Seymour E. Smith to Clerkship—Formerly Clerk Under Dr. W D Crum. Special to THE NEW YORK AGR Washington, D.C., April 26 — The Hon Whitehead McKinlay, Collector of Port of Georgetown, D.C., has recently made an extremely popular move with the bodies of colored clerks here. After a somewhat drawn out tight involving the resignation of one or two white female clerks from his office he has succeeded in appointing a colored man to a position in his office where no colored man was ever employed before he took the position as collector. Seamour E. Smith at Charleston, S.C., for fifteen years a clerk in the custom house at Charleston, who was dropped about a year ago by the white collector who succeeded Dr W. D Crum, has been reinstated through the efforts of Mr. McKinlay and apointed to a $1200 clerkship in the custom house at Georgetown. Mr. Smith takes the place of a white clerk who resigned his position shortly after Mr. McKinlay took charge of the office. He was a classmate of the collector in college in South Carolina under the tutelage of Hon. Richard T Greener and was for many years engaged in newspaper work publishing the Charleston Reporter MAKES BIG GIFT. Special to THE NEW YORK AGE. Jackson, Miss., April 25.—A Negro planter in Mississippi, who does not wish his name disclosed has just given to Campbell College, a large Negro institution here, maintained by the African Methodist Episcopal Churches, a large tract of land in Coahoma County, valued at $7,000, the income of which is to go for the maintenance of poor, but worthy students. This is probably the largest gift made by a Southern Negro for the education of his people GOES TO SELMA UNIVERSITY. Special to The New York Am. Selma, Ala., April 25. Dr M W Gilbert, pastor of Zion Baptist Church, Kansas City, and formerly pastor of the Oliver Baptist Church, New York City, was elected president of Selma University at a meeting of trustees last Thursday, succeeding Dr R T Pollard, who resigned because of old age. Selma University is the most important Baptist College in the state and has long been under the special care of the several Baptist associations of the state.

REFORMERS BOARD MEETS AT RICHMOND REFORMERS BOARD MEETS AT RICHMOND Further Plans Discussed Relative to Rehabilitation of Order ENCOURAGED AS TO FUTURE Counsellor Newsome Makes the Charge That Several Former Officers Created Offices for Speculative Purposes. Special to THE NEW YORK AGE. Richmond, Va., April 24.—After the first session of the Board of Directors of the Grand Fountain of the True Reformers held in this city Monday, well-wishers of the order expressed themselves as being hopeful of the future success of the organization, and the members of the board were not averse to stating in public that a united effort would be made to put the order on a sound basis. In fact, everyone went about with an air of optimism that made a very favorable impression. Many important subjects were discussed in executive session at to-day's meeting, and the method used by several former officers in conducting their business was given considerable attention. The board of directors were greatly encouraged by the reports coming in from fountains throughout the country, the members declaring their loyalty and promising to do all in their power to rehabilitate the order. The Reformer, the organ of the order, publishes the following We are fully aware of the far-reaching effect the failure of our bank had on our race, and it is regretted by the officials and members of the Grand Fountain that this sad happening overtook the first bank founded in this country by colored men. We are glad that the white press secures the light it does, and we quite agree that because one set of officials mismanages a concern, all men are not necessarily dishonest. We are confident the Order will be put back on its feet, and the officers will profit by their mistakes. as never before. Although they have not fully recovered from the attack, he has divided that it is not best to see the pioneer fraternal organization die Newsome Makes Statement. One of the active members who took part in the deliberations of the board Monday was J. Thomas Newsome, General Consul for the Order, who has been having some trouble with several of the other officers with reference to his duties. He also submitted a report showing the result of his investigations, some of which occasioned surprise Before Monday's meeting Counsellor Newsome issued the following statement: "At the extraordinary session of the Grand Fountain United Order of True Reformers, held a little over two months ago, after I had asked a few questions as to the disposition of certain properties the delegates elected me, much to my surprise. General Counsel for the great Order I have intended since that time to make a statement to the public giving my opinion as to the real status of the brotherhood. Unlike some of my friends who are equally interested in the success of the Reformers, I feel that the surest way to reach that end is by withholding nothing from the people. The people, and not the few of us who happen to be temporarily in office, own this society, and I, for one, during my incumbency, shall keep them properly advised "First of all I am certain, as I am of anything that as soon as the courts get an opportunity to pass upon all of the facts and the law applicable therein, they will decide that the Grand Fountain was and is the owner of all the allied corporations which grew out of and have been sustained by it. Such indeed seems to have been the idea of the officers of the Grand Fountain when they asked for receivers for the bank. Then the Grand Fountain was the plaintiff, because the principal and largest depositor of the bank. Since then the parties have changed places and we are now told that the Grand Fountain is very much in debt to the bank. MR. FRED R. MOORE "This I deny, because it is not true. The bank was more the Treasurer of the Grand Fountain than anything else. But the great trouble was that when she was prosperous the directors, under the guidance and dictation of the President, began to create new corporations for speculative purposes and to pay the enormous dividends promised certain depositors. The legality of a number of steps in connection with these acts will be seriously questioned. In fact the several corporations have been so closely allied as to be under the same Board of Directors. Says Funds Were Diverted. "What was done by one Board was naturally concurred in by the others, for a house divided against itself soon splits asunder. These corporations engaged in lines of business which totally diverted the funds of the Grand Fountain to channels never contemplated by its founder Inexperienced men were put in charge of business requiring special training and the result was disastrous. There is record evidence that W. P. Burrell, who has been the Grand Worthy Secretary for a long number of years, vainly protested against these innovations but was booted down by the loyal yet blind supporters of the President who seemed to have had the idea that he, and not the people constituted the True Reformers. "Now, my own investigations supplemented by some of the best legal talent in this state, convince me that the True Reformers are the owners of all of the properties and equities, legal title to which are in some of the other corporations which sprang from the Reformers; that the Bank which furnished the finance to the said corporations was simply advancing the money of the members of the Grand Fountain; that the Grand Fountain as the parent organization, should take possession of all properties belonging to the various corporations and assume all obligations against these corporations. By these means the Grand Fountain will come into possession of considerable property, will at once be put in position to resume business and will insure to every depositor of the defunct bank a large percentage, if not all of the money deposited therein. "It is proper that the people should know that in my search for facts and evidence in this case I have been greatly handicapped by reason of the fact that even members of the Executive Committee differ from the views expressed above because some of them were large depositors in the defunct bank and therefore have conflicting interest to preserve. At my own expense and to the neglect of truth in this matter that I am now in a position to say to the people confidently that the clouds are disappearing and very soon the Grand Fountain will be restored to its place of power and influence which it once occupied in this country." NAMED CITY TREASURER special to The New York Agn. Topeka, Kan., April 25.—John M. Wright, the present Deputy County Treasurer, has been chosen City Treasurer of Topeka. His selection was made last week at a meeting of the City Commission, three Democrats—Mayer J. B. Billard and Commissioners P Miller and E. W Statts voting for him, and two Republicans—Commissioners Tandy and Boone, favoring the selection of a female applicant. Mr Wright is one of the most highly respected Negroes in the West. He has been in politics for a number of years and will soon finish his term as Deputy County Commissioner of Shawnee County. For four years he was County Clerk, and also filled a term as Deputy County Clerk. During the recent primaries, Mr Wright ran on the Republican ticket for County Treasurer of Shawnee County and was defeated. The municipal affairs of Topeka are conducted under a commission form of government and at the election on April 4, a commission was elected composed of three Democrats and two Republicans. Although Mr. Wright is a dyed-an- the-wool Republican the Democrats agreed on his selection as City Treasurer, while the Republicans voted for a white female applicant. The Democrats say that in choosing Mr Wright they considered fitness and character and ignored the question of political affiliation. Has Largest Circulation PRICE, 5'CENTS WHITES ALARMED OVER EXODUS Oklahoma Negroes Leaving for Canada in Large Numbers LABOR PROBLEM ARISES White Employers Have Some Difficulty Filling Jobs Left Vacant by Colored Employers Hundreds Give Up Glironship on Account of Adverse Legislation—Canadian Government Friendly to Visitors. Special to THE NEW YORK ACM. Oklahoma City, April 25.—The exodus of Negroes from Oklahoma to Canada is causing the white people no little concern, and this State now faces a labor problem which promises to become more aggravated as the discontended black citizens leave for other parts. For several months past colonization agents have been working among the Negro population of Oklahoma, painting in glowing colors the attractiveness of the Canadian provinces in the Northwest and the fortunes to be won from their fertile soil. The fruits of these labors became apparent a week or two ago when the first party of emigrants, numbering ninety families or about 500 Negroes in all, started on the long journey to the newly opened region of the Northwest. They sold all their property in Oklahoma, much of it at a great sacrifice, intending to homestead quarter section claims in Canada. Many other Negroes are preparing to follow their example, with the prospect that there will be a heavy exodus. According to the reports of the colonization agents, the next party will number over 1,000 families. Preparations have been completed to move this party in the spring. A treaty provision admits them to Canada if they have $2 each in cash. These emigrants, as a rule, are fairly well educated, many having been taught in the government schools for Indians in the old Indian Territory. The causes of the exodus are not hard to find. Aside from the advantages which they have been told Canada possesses, there is general discontent among the Negroes on account of adverse legislation in Oklahoma. "Jim Crow" coach and depot laws, the "grandfather clause" act, which prohibits them from voting, separate school laws and other oppressive measures have filled their cup of bitterness to overflowing. The exodus has been questioned by some of the whites of the Canadian provinces, but the Canadian Government has decided that there is no law against their admission, and the exodus will probably continue until the heavy Negro population of Oklahoma is largely depleted. INFLUENCE OF LOCAL LEAGUE Negro Business League of Selma Re- sponsible for Many Movements Throughout Alabama—Instrumental in the Civil War Railroads—Some of the Members Special to THE NEW YORK AGE Selma, Ala, April 25—Much of the success attending the recent session of the Alabama State League is due to the flourishing condition of the local Negro Business League of this city of which Prof R B Hudson is president. At Selma the Negro Business League is regarded by the Negroes just as any other commercial organization is regarded by the white people. The Negro Business League, under Prof. Hudson's direction, has to do with all progressive movements, inaugurates many of them and sees to it that any other movement is carried to a successful culmination. The league here has been instrumental in placing colored porters on two railroads running out of Selma and is now at work on the third one. It succeeded in securing an extension of time, when necessary on the payment of the extra tax on a sewer system for Negro citizens, and has encouraged and aided many other laudable undertakings. One sees in Selma a greater spirit of co-operation than in most towns of the size, even where there is present quite as many Negro business establishments. E. W. Stone Worth $70,000. Among some of the leading spirits of the local league, are E. W Stone, who is a blacksmith and large planter. Mr. Stone owns a large tract of land, which has recently been included within the extended city limits, which portion has become a fashionable residence district. The land is conservatively estimated to be worth about $70,000. He is an active member of the A. M. E. Church and has been a delegate to several general conferences.

A class of children is preparing for first holy communion on some Sunday before Trinity Sunday. The Easter Fair began on Wednesday, April 26, and will continue until May 13. The hall is really a thing of beauty. The decorations are most elaborate and the booths are actually merging under the weight of the magnificent articles which have been gathered by St. Benedict's people for this fair. The opening ceremonies consisted of a concert by Prof. Harry Hugg's orchestra and a most eloquent and witty speech by Hon. Judge Thomas C. O'Sullivan. Mt. Olivet B. Y. P. U. Master J. E. Harrison, Jr., Mrs. H. Jones, M. M. Turner, Mrs. H. Jackson, Miss Edith Smallwood, Mr. C. Johnson, Mrs. Allen Sasser and Mr. J. M. Robinson assisted Mr. J. E. Harrison, President of the Tabernacle Baptist Church Lyceum last Sunday afternoon in the rendition of a program. The audience was very much pleased with the entertainment. The Junior B. Y. P. U. rendered their last program under its present administration last evening. The feature of the program was a piano contest between five of the young ladies. A collation was served after the program. Miss Rosa Lee Jones will have charge of the program next Sunday, while President Allison will furnish the program for next Wednesday evening. Abysinian Baptist Church Sunday was another big day for Abyssinian. There were three services. The pastor preached in the morning and also at the baptismal service in the afternoon. Fifteen persons were' baptized. Miss Nannie H. Burroughs, president of the Vocational Training School at Washington, delivered a stirring address before the evening audience. Among other things she stated that while the Negroes had been deprived of many rights, they still possessed four rights of which nobody had tried to deprive them, namely, the right to live decent, the right to keep our houses and bodies clean, the right to bathe in the sunshine and breathe the pure air, and the right to worship God. At the conclusion of her address the church donated $25 to the excellent work she is doing for the girls of her race. Rev. Powell will preach next Sunday morning, and in the evening will deliver the annual sermon to the Abyssinian Friendly Society. Collection for the day. $137. Matthew Henson will give an account of his trip to the North Pole, Tuesday evening. May 2. Public cordially invited. St. Mark's Church Bov. Dr. Brooks was disturbed on last Sunday owing to the very critical illness of Mrs. Brooks. But at this writing we learn that she is very much improved. At 11 o'clock Dr. F. M. North, of the Home Mission and Church Extension Society, filled the pulpit and delivered a most wonderful sermon on the significance of Easter. His text was from Luke xiv. 15. Many think of Easter as a great traditional affair, without any regard to its real significance, said Dr. North. Some look upon it as a great religious festival. But to the real Christian it is putting again the accent of our faith in the life of Jesus Christ, a new inspiration of our hope for eternal life; a new determination and a new mission with Jesus Christ. Bov. R. T. Brown, one of our local ministers, filled the pulpit in the evening. We forgot to mention in our last issue the most excellent services rendered by the choir on Easter Sunday. A special feature at the Lyceum was a paper by Dr. R. C. Fraser on the respiratory organs. The graduation exercises of the Normal Class of the Sabbath School will be held on this Thursday evening at 8:15 o'clock. The Financial Circle of St Mark's will render their famous cantata entitled "The Old Maids' Conference" at Fleet Street Memorial Church, Brooklyn, this Thursday evening. St. James Presbyterian Church Attendance at the services of this church continues to improve. Rev. William R. Lawton, who has been elected "Stated Supply" by the congregation at its annual meeting, and approved by the Presbytery, preached both morning and evening. His sermons were very interesting, full of spiritual truths and inspiring to the members and friends. This church will begin a campaign for the growth and development of Presbyterianism among colored people in this city on the first Sunday in May. Dr Lawton will preach a series of sermons every Sunday, beginning with that day. We are calling for all persons not connected with any other church, especially those who have been brought up under Presbyterian influences, to pay us a visit and join us in the advance of Presbyterianism in this city. The Sabbath School, which meets at 1 o'clock every Sunday, is growing steadily. One new class was formed last Sunday and we hope to form others soon. Christian Endeavor Society, under the leadership of Miss Beaden, is doing good work. She is assisted by a staff of good officers who are doing the power to make this branch of the church the hands of God to do much effectual work. On Sunday next Rev. Lawton will preach both morning and evening. We extend a cordial invitation to all to attend these services. Mother Zion. As the whole of the Christian Church is celebrating the centenary of the King James version of the English Bible, Pastor Eolden spoke from the subject, "The Place of the Bible in Human History." He showed the founding and growth of the Bible; how that the law givers, prophets, priests, scribes and kings of Israel preserved it in the original Hebrew tongue. He claimed that the Holy Spirit acted upon their minds, making them exact in letter, form and accent. He numerated the compilers and revisers of the book from the earliest days of Israel's time up to the present. He claimed that the King James version of the English Bible took precedent over all other versions; because of its simplicity of speech, and im proved form, and he said the influence of the Bible was beyond the full comprehension of any mortal, for all forms of government and good social order, as well as all great men and women are so because of the teachings of the inspired word of God. In the afternoon the pastor spoke at Solem M. E. Church to a large and enthusiastic congregation, on the "Doctrine of the Inspiration of the Bible." At night the Independent Order of St. Luke assembled for their annual Thanksgiving services. "The pastor spoke from these verses: 'For as much as many have taken in hand to draw up a narrative concerning these matters which have been fulfilled among us, even as they delivered them unto us, who, from the beginning were eye witnesses and ministers of the word, it seemed good to me also, having traced the course of all this time in order to write up unto them in order, most excellent Theophrase, that thou mightest know the certainty concerning the things wherein thou wast instructed." Bethel Notes Sunday was a glorious day at Bethel and the services were well attended. In the morning Rev J R Bansom, D. D., of Topeka, Kan, preached a most eloquent and inspiring sermon. He let him freely drink. In the evening Dr. C R Bansom, the pastor of Bethel Church, filled the pulpit. The "Cana Tabernacle" and its invited guests were present to worship with the congregation. The reorganized churchman, named Dr. Bansom, Sunday evening. It did exceedingly well. Its music was sweet and charming. St. David's Church On last Sunday the rector, E. G Clifton, D. F. preached both morning and evening to large congregations, his subjects at both services being a plea for the exercising of On Thursday evening, May 4, the Sunday School will give its annual entertainment in aid of the Fresh Air Work of the parish. The parish will sketch by the Upliftion Sigma Club. The St. David's fresh air work situated at Silver Lake Park, White Plains, is conducted entirely in a charismatic manner with the cheer favored of the race an opportunity to enjoy during the summer for at least one week. The benefits of the pure air of a country home and well-wishers of the parish can help being present at the entertainment. Union Baptist Church. Our rally began at 11 a. m. Sunday, with a strong sermon from Rev. M. E. Lynch, from St. Stephen's Church, Actoria, L. I. on Running Man, and Actoria, L. I. on being killed in his discourse. His audience was captivated from start to finish. A splendid crowd was out to hear him. Our church feels very proud of our burying, and it m. m. proud of our retinent, and his co-workers were at their post of duty in the Sunday School work. At 8.30 Dr. Tellaferro, Editor of the Christian Samer, show up and condition the Bible for the Procession of the Church. The audience was electrified with our brother's sermon. At 5.30 Rev J.

To the Editor or The Age: I have read a statement in your paper, the New York Age, issue of Thursday, April 13, under the heading "Special Notice," signed by my wife, Lucy Knight. Now I wish to have you publish at your earliest convenience a statement to the effect that the whole of that statement signed by my wife is untrue, and to begin with it is characteristic of my wife to it proviate, which I hope to say began in the month after we were married, and has continued, at intervals, all of the thirteen years that we were together, and has really been the most serious cause of all our trouble. Now, my wife says that she and I agreed to separate. That is false. My wife without my consent or knowledge while I was at work on Thursday, March 23, 1911, sold everything there was in the house, not even leaving her "dear children" as she calls them now in her statement, a bed to sleep on or a chair to sit on, deserting them and taking the money she realised on the sale of my household effects for her own personal use. She says we could not get along together after my brother came to live with us. That is untrue. It is simply one of her false excuses. She says she did everything in her power to please me. That is false. She did just the opposite. She also claims she does not know why I said I hate her. Yes she does. She asserts she never would have left had I not threatened her life. That is false, absolutely false, and I can prove it. Furthermore my wife had been planning to sell me out several days before she did it. This I have learned since She says I was cruel. I have never struck her or attempted to strike her. Whatever I may have said to her there was certainly cause for saying it, and with a very few exceptions believe I was justified in saying all that I have said I will not go into detail in this statement because I do not approve of these public statements. I don't believe they do either of us any good; in fact, I am quite sure they don't. When one makes false statements as my wife has done, they are only liked by some of our so-called friends who delight in such things because they are really envious of a man when he tries to succeed. My wife will realize some day that it is simply another case of a man working hard to get ahead in the world, which my wife knows, and all the people in my immediate vicinity knows. I have been doing, and am still doing it, but I had a wife that did not appreciate my efforts. In the thirteen years that I have been married I have purchased a house, furnished it comfortably and my wife or children have not wanted for anything they would ask for that I was able to give them. I am not writing this for sympathy and my pretending friends will do me the kindness not to offer any My wife says she will never live with me again. I certainly hope she sticks to that resolution. I am certainly going to do my utmost to help her stick to it and would consider myself very foolish if I did otherwise. I do honestly believe that my wife put something in the oatmeal and hot milk that she served me for breakfast about a month before she left. It made me so ill that I had to return home before 10 a.m. and had the services of a doctor twice before 6 p.m. on the same date, and I saw an unnatural sediment in my cup more than once after that. This is the only statement I shall make, and I make this for two reasons. First, because I want people to know the true facts in the case. Second, because I want my wife to see this and come to her senses and think for a minute and realize that God knows she has told falsehoods about this af- Elegant five rooms, bath, hot water supply, and good yard for children to play.

Smalley, the journalist-diplomat, tells of the early cleavage established between Northern and Southern students in the years immediately prior to the war of the Rebellion. The Southern students assumed and affirmed that they were members of a race superior to the Northerners, and they were not afraid to demonstrate that superiority by almost challenging the right of the Yankees to give words to their beliefs upon their own territory. The Southerners, fifty years after the Rebellion, in which they were licked, but not whipped, stoutly maintain their superiority and as stoutly disputes the right of the North to disagree with its policies upon questions which are fundamentally questions belonging to no one section. The Southern white people may not be a race superior to the Northern white people, but they are a people of tenacious moral courage, and one of them can put ten Yankees to flight. They are wrong, for example, on the question of the equality of all men under the law, they are wrong. That makes no difference for they maintain their position by riding over the Constitution, in the open, and then they cower the intelligent North into submissive silence They lynch colored men, to take another example, when if pleases them, and inquire into the right of any man to do so who may rise to denounce them. The Northern white man who goes South 'will view the matchless progress of colored people, and, despite this, bow before the infamy of that section. The Southern white man who comes North will stand in the corridors of the Holland House and make every Yankee knee bow and every Yankee tongue confess that Lee was right and Grant was wrong. The Southerner is not a superior race, with respect to ethnological comparisons, but he possesses the courage of his conviction, and will proclaim his faith in any household. He dominates at the present the Congress, not by advantages of learning and experience, but by the force of his character, which measures every Negro a slave and every Yankee a fool. Most men marry hats and dresses, and many colored men are imitative Why do people talk so much about mother wit? Haven't the fathers got wit also? The Governor of Alabama announces that he is against lynching. He can prove it without being turned out of the church. There is a woman mixed up in the alleged scandal attached to the True Reformers' bank. The sisters have been at it since Eve got in her work. We counted nine colored people at the 72d street subway Friday morning, and every one was chewing gum for dear life. They were an ugly sight. Great Douglass said that the Republic can party is the ship, all else the sea. It looks as if the mad waters of the sea notes that the ship is without compass or captain. It was very cold in New York Satur day night. We knew it as soon as we saw no disorderly crowd at 153th street and Lenox avenue and heard no obscene language. We wish it were cold always. From the San Francisco jail to an air ship is a long flight, but Jack Johnson purposes to try it. Jack seems anxious to get killed experimenting around with 20th century contrivances, and we reckon we'll let him have his way. --- Up at the Crescent Theatre the other night people waited by the hundreds to get in on the second curtain. We wonder if that many Harlem people will be waiting at the second gate when Peter turns the keys of heaven? A Pennsylvania essayist says that Christ taught a "social religion" What is that? The next thing we shall have the Master justifying women playing poker all night, and the gentlemen "society leaders" breaking up the homes of friends. KENTUCKY DISGRACED. The method, if not the crime, of the lynching of Will Porter, a colored man, at Livermore, Ky., Thursday night, was brutal enough to shock the respect of every brave and decent man. But, mark it! the pulpit is dumb, the press is silent, and statesmen have no word to utter against the wickedness of a crime for which there was not the slightest justification, nor did there come from a single high place the weakest condemnation of the cruel torture endured by the victim before a hundred volleys riddled his body. The times jestingly—jestingly, men—observes that the well-known pasttime of lynching was in this case performed with dramatic setting, the poor devil was tied in the center of the stage of a theatre, and there—the footlights emphasizing the agony of his expression, and the full lights of the theatre turned on—he was murdered in the name of Anglo-Saxon superiority," the fair fame of justice, and the glory of the commonwealth of Kentucky! God help Kentucky and attend stricken justice. Porter's crime was, what? Attacking the person of a woman, you say No. Then designs against the peace and security of his neighbors? No Why this shameful deed, then, since the proud South takes no liberty with law unless the honor of white womanhood cries for protection? Let the South and its excuse-producers make answer Guilty of the mr of a white man with whom he had a barroom brawl, that was his crime. The white man was shot in the back, the press dispatches say Thank goodness the he was no blacker, as it might easily have been painted. The fact is, Porter shot in self defense. It is perhaps as well for the society of Liver more that both Porter and his man are gone, but to the children of that community the cowardly shooting of Porter by fifty cowardly men a heritage whose influence will cheapen human life, and rob law and order of the tribute that civilization pays them everywhere. Petition Russia to cease to prosecute the Jews. Demand of Turkey to have mercy upon Armenians. Warn Belgium to halt its infamy in Africa. But as for us, let us loose the hounds of fire and shell upon the tracks of Negroes Shame on Kentucky. Curses upon the pulpit and platform, and press of a nation that unheeds the cry of the weak for protection or refuses defense to any element of the population --- If there turns up at Chicago next year a single colored Republican from South Carolina wearing a Capers badge, we will second Will Andrews' motion to drown him in the lake. But experience teaches that new occasions produce fresh traitors There is a big discussion going on now as to the relative intellectual fitness of the ministers of the A M E Church and the P E Church. We are not up on that, but we know that neither set is overburdened with too much religion of the true kind At Austin, Texas, a few nights ago Mrs. Booker T Washington delivered a speech. She closed it with an eloquent flight "The greatest discovery of the century is woman's discovery of herself" And the greatest discovery of the $4.98 department stores is their discovery of woman We don't want any war with Mexico In any war we want to see colored soldiers fighting under the Stars and Stripes They could have no heart fighting against a country where a man is a man, and is so treated, without respect to race. That is Mexico --- La Follette demands the Republican caucus of the United States Senate that his band of twelve apostates be recognized as a third and separate entity of the membership of the United States Senate. Did you ever? To true Republicans it is still doubtful that La Follette Boreh ete ought to be allowed to use the party name. Their proper home is in the Populus party, and they ought to go there. All good men must present the志愿 imputations against the character and atta- tements placed upon the grandest thing that walks on four legs contained in a recent outpouring of the Sun with respect to the rabbit of Burke County, N.C. The Sun claims that the Burke County rabbits are now in complete control of the county government, and that early signs of despotism have alarmed the citizens of the vicinity who threaten a recall if there is not some improvement in affairs. Our acquaintance with the Burke County rabbit is not personal we are sad to confess, but we have had for a number of years a close speaking friendship with the Guilford County house of haredom, and the attorney general for these protectors of Caesar Cone has long been a personal friend of Tim Anz. We refer to President James B. Dudley, who holds down a side job at the State College History tells us that the Guilford rabbit and the Burke County rabbit came originally from the same house, and that both have long been noted for conservative ideas in THE NEW YORK AGE THURSDAY, APRIL 17, 12:11 government, and much patriotism. The Noxubee County rabbit we have known from early infancy. From the elders among this noble hand we have often heard the kindiest sentiments with respect to the abused rabbits of Burke. We believe in their probity and ability. The fact is, it is announced that a delegation of the Noxubee County rabbits will soon call on President Taft to learn something of political science. They are anxious to learn the essence of conciation involved in commanding the support of one party for office, and giving all the honors to the party that was on the other side. Walter L. Cohen, of Louisiana, we understand, will accompany the delegation LET US READ. A favorite boast of colored orators is that their race has reduced its illiteracy by 35 per cent since the close of the war of the Rebellion. That is to say where once there was great mystery in the printed word, that mystery is no more. Since the sweet days of childhood we have looked with awe upon the orator who could boast the progress a struggling people have made against tremendous and frightful odds, but calling words is not always reading, and reading print is not always a sign of intelligence A few evenings ago four colored men were engaged in conversation "Have you read Villard's 'John Brown,'" was asked. "No," replied the three gentlemen addressed. And neither of them, all posing as big men in the community, had ever heard of the book Sumner's anniversary has just passed, certainly the company was acquainted with a late and important work bearing upon the career of a great character "Shotwell's Summer" went on the speaker, "is perhaps the final word about the great Senator," expecting an exchange of opinion "Who is Shotwell" came back the true. The task was given up. It was feared that another question might cloud in doubt the right of the fair name of the great Massachusetts statesman to the hall of fame. However, by easy effort it was found that only one gentleman in this "educated" group knew of Forbes' book on Africa or Harry Johnston's essays about all his book he called on the Negro, or Riley's important work on the relations between the races at the South. The most discouraging bit of knowledge that was gained during the conversation was that neither of the "leaders" had read Booker T Washington's "Chapters from My Experience," now a monthly feature of World's Work. One of the gentlemen had read some time ago an extract or two from the "Chapters" as they were reproduced in THE AGE Not only from this experience, but from an observation based on a general knowledge, it can be said that the crime of the colored race is its refusal to read more of sound literature, not necessarily books by or of colored people, but books in which there is meat for the needs mind. The advanced members of the race set a bad example for the masses in ignoring the necessity for acquainting themselves with the best in standard and current literature. The women of a race are useless omniverous readers, preferring very generally the best works of the best authors. And if their race is making any determined stand for a wider liberty, they choose books that tell of struggle and of triumph, and acquaint themselves with the great poets. Not so with colored women. Here and there we find women who are deeply versed in standard and current literature, and who ably second the men in their battle against prejudice and proscription, but in the main they devote their reading hours to Bud Fisher's works, and in wading through the revising lines of department store poetry. What the smart people are doing to make monkeys of themselves demand much of their attention. The standard of the women is the standard of the race. For example, the colored people in New York are pleasure struck because the women worship pleasure. A woman of prayer can free a slave but a dancing woman has made trouble since the world began We do not refer often to colored people in Washington admirable center of cultivated womanhood and home of an advanced manhood, because a comparison son involving Washington is always unfair, but there is much in the life of the people that could with profit be imbled by the people in every section of the country. Both the men and women of the town in New York, with particular reference to Manhattan, might very properly cultivate the less their love of pleasure and the more a love of the things in life and literature that are permanent in value. We despatched to good Clement of the Star of Zion a curriences of our distingushed consideration and beg to assure him that in a recent observation with respect to the editorship of the great journal whose fortunes he has for so happy a season directed, we had no desire to be personal, except in compliment to him. Our real for Zion may be traced to long and rich association with her strong men and a wakeful pride in her exciting glories. If dear Clement trusts his fortunes to the Lord and the General Conference as he indicated, we may well there deposit our trust also, and, like him, prey without ceasing that the Gen- eral Conference will exercise human wisdom and the Lord show forth His mercy, enrobing the Tar Heel Swift in the garments of the holy, and enclricing the Great Bench with a Preacher with a mighty tongue that waggge without fear against the encroachments of Satan. By way of suggestion we add that should the Lord and the General Conference prove unresponsive to his and our beeching we shall move immediately for the election of Clement to the Chair of Diction in Livingstone as a just rebuke to a heedless church President Charles Banks, of the Mississippi Business League, the largest of all the State Leagues, announces that the annual convention of his league will be held in the city of Natchez June 28-29. At the same time, as is the custom, the Press Convention and the Woman's Federation will be held. The meetings of this league have long attracted a great amount of interest, and the programs are always of a high order. President Banks has succeeded in making his organization something of a clearing house for the societies and business houses among the colored people of the State. He has never shown his wonderful organizing genius to better advantage than through the Business League. In Mississippi, if one doesn't attend the annual league meeting somebody suggests an investigating committee. Perry W. Howard, the Jackson lawyer, is the corresponding secretary of the league Senator Sutherland announces that when the resolution for the popular election of Senators comes before the Senate he will again offer an amendment for Federal supervision of elections. When the Borah bill was before the Senate, Sutherland was able to have that amendment put in the bill, and that is why the bill was killed. It will be killed again if it is put in, but all political students agree that such an amendment alone can preserve the Federal power over elections. Religion on Business Basics is the slogan of a religious campaign about to be launched. God help religion A political party that has no principles is doubly unfortunate with a leader full of policies. Bryan missed the Presidency because he was fill to running over with policies that were not included in the principles of the Democratic party. Two girls on the top floor of the house at the southeast corner of 134th street hung out a window a few nights ago and yelled to a girl across the street, almost a block away. This girl yelled back. Many people were on the streets and we felt ashamed. Some people haven't got much sense. A white man, an office holder, of Atlanta, Georgia, gave $100 towards a building for a secret order among colored men, and the Atlanta Independent devotes seven columns of the first page and two columns of its "editorial" page to hysterical dutiyrambs. Suppose the sum had been $150? THE Ace does not necessarily endorse the dissection of Herbert Parsons by The Sun but the investigation discloses interesting situations in the political anatomy of the Republican party with which we have hitherto been proud to allay our fortunes. On this page is the finding The knight errant of political hypocrisy the High and Honourable Jeems Kavadib Vardhman runs, still runs lightly for the United States Senator from the State of Mississippi. The Jackson Years with gunboat敌, insult on propping that the 'pride of Lethor when Leftover shepherd is not against misgeneration and that he has used railroad post. Angels, attend Lens.' William Jennings Bryan reads Senator Martin, of Virginia, out of the party in last week's Commander. He calls the Senator everything that is bad in the political dictionary. We can say this much for Martin unlike a state Senator from Virginia. He is the father of men by a colored mother whose two was good enough to shelter his child but not fat enough to walk in the way of freedom. True and True The Native Press The banquet attended Hon. L. C. Napier, Registrar of the Treasury by the citizens of Nashville, Tenn., was truly a tribute well deserved. Mr. Napier has been and is still a true and tried Republican and deserves all that has been done for him.

NOTE AND COMMENT The United States, from ocean to ocean, is celebrating the end of fifty years since the rebels fired on Sumter. Newspapers are filled with the history of the first months of 1861, and pulpits and platforms ring with the glories of the struggle and the fulfilled promises of the peace that followed Lee's surrender to Grant. Fifty years ago to-day was a stirring period, men were tramping to war, slaves were crouching in fear, and poor Lincoln, but yesterday inducted into his great office, was heavy with sorrow and troubled under great responsibilities. Writing under the captain of "Fifty Years Ago and Now" the *Springfield Public* in the main, correctly surveys the steep of time and events that have succeeded the season any nation ever faced. We may with pride and pleasure follow this great national's review. Half a century backward seems an introminable reach in the thought of youth, but how many people there were all over the United States last Sunday who remembered the day, 60 years before when Fort Sumter was fired upon and the Civil War, whose no man could then estimate, had begun. What the bombardment at Charleston, S.C. meant to the North. The Republican recalled in last weekly issue, which reprinted the dispatches this newspaper carried on that fateful Saturday, of 12, 1661. Profound were their interest and excitement here and everywhere over the land. South as well as North. The cleavage was absolute, and the deadly hostility deepened with the days and weeks and years until the issue had been fought out in blood and tears, hate to the sufferer and uttered in anger. After that the slow advancement to a better understanding and final reconciliation and the peace of a reunited country that has so long blessed us. To those who us, were a part of this history the sweep of thought to with a wisdom and wealth of memory that no words can embody, no historian ever tell. Fortune are the older people in what they witnessed, experienced and suffered. Their lives were set in the midst of great and tragic happenings that made men and women so strong, not fortunate with the same today, to whom the Civil War is history only. We have inherited a united country—no North, no South, no bitterness—because of differences so sterile settled then and we face national opportunity of a scope and possibility the fathers realities and it means to do the obligation to conserve to guide to enrich this inheritance of ours. The war to be fought is that of social and political regeneration. It is not new this conflict but has been going on year after year with honesty gaining and the cause of genetic democracy advancing. The truth is that the struggle but stagnant. The truth conscience is awake, the common cause but there and everywhere makes progress often by leaps and bounds. There is no room in our outlook, municipal state or national for doubt or presumption and little occasion for little rift. The wonder in all this summer talk that no colored man is in it, one way or the other. What is the matter, has the colored race lost its rabbit foot? When all this money was passing did not one colored man act as messenger? Has State street lost its charms? Since the Chicago election in which Carter H. Harrison was elected Mayor we have been deeply interested in the attitude of the colored voters, what they and their conduct, and their conduct in the election. The Illinois Chronicle, the most important publication edited by Chicago colored men, makes the following comment The Republican party allocated the colored vote. This was done in a number of ways. In some instances they have not kept faith with a colored vote. In others they have not been in his allegiance. Then there was a growing spirit of so-called independent fostered by disappointed political tensions and which persuaded the masses to vote the Democratic ticket in order that the disgruntled politician be regarded as injury to the masses. In other cases the loss of the colored vote was due to this class of leadership. An analysis of the vote shows that, with few exceptions the colored products were carried by Harrison. Capacitably was this true in the Second and Third elections. The latter was passed when an election can be caused in the colored districts by tapping the barrel on election day. Fifty years ago the matchless name of Frederick Douglass was daily bracketed in the praise or censure visited upon Harriett Beecher Stowe, William Lloyd Garrison, Wendell Phillips and other great lights in the anti-slavery movement. The Charleston (S. C.) Messenger announces its opposition to Capers and his lily-white party. For decency's sake loyal colored Republicans, who are preparing for a last stand against lily-whiteism, at the next National Republican convention earnestly hopes that no colored Republican of South Carolina, will be weak enough to ally himself with Capers before the convention committee on credentials. Ohio, once the banner Republican state home of Foraker, McKinley, Hanna and Sherman, is now a banner Democratic state. When Foraker was killed off by one faction of the party, the rank and file of the party gave up in despair, for their last great leader had retired. Since the last state convention in which Foraker was the lion, the Democratic party has been gaining in strength In the plan of rehabilitation which State Chairman Barnes may have under consideration we hope there is a scheme for organizing the colored Republicans of the entire state. There are, here and there, local organizations of some prestige, but, for the most part, colored Republicans are disorganized, and many of them feel themselves to be homeless. The Democrats are making heavy gains among colored men not in Greater New York, but in other parts of the state. Mr. Barnes might well commission Commiteeeman Anderson to undertake the work of convincing colored men that they are really desired in the party of their love. No colored man has ever left the G O P without a regret. C PRESS God Speed the Day. The passing of Mr. Cohen shows how rapidly the "lily white" movement has grown in recent years, and how the Republican party has, untainted think, been influenced by the element. The day will come when the Republican party will return to the principles which made it the party of humanity and not the party of class or the oppressed. Too great to be permanently retarded to this new cult, which has no good purpose to serve - Omaha Enterprise. Profiting by Commotion.

C) Recorder Don't You Know Elder Jenkins? The editor of The Charleston (S. C.) Messenger is sorely distressed and blindly takes the colored soldiers to task for newspaper reports about their behavior purported to have taken place at San Antonio, Tex. We do not believe that there was any such mischief as reported, but a scarceroffense against the race, especially in soldier clothes. We should not be so ready to agree with our adversary — The Nashville Charion New Orleans Exhibit. (The A. M. E. Review) San Francisco beat New Orleans for the Panama Canal Exposition. New Orleans may still be supreme by ex- porting a team from some of its Jim Crow streets cars. Confusion Over Bushons Bishop Hood affirms that the African Methodist Episcopal Zion Church needs only six able bodied active bishops. President Goler is just as certain that four can do the work. The General Conference of 1896 said nine, the General Conference of 1900 said the same, while in 1804 and 1908 ten was the number of the church in its highest constitutional assembly deemed necessary. If all men agreed life would be too dull and the church of a General Conference would make a reckoning hand organ green with envy. The Star of Zion A Governor's Work town.

The government will be held in charge of the government thinking people throughout the State and if carried out will strengthen him among decent and law abiding people everywhere.

Not only should the sheriff be tried looking forward to his memorial the mob should be forcet out and tried as murderers.

Last year the Republicans of New York county failed to elect a Representative, chose one Senator and seven Assemblymen. Here is the statement of the genuine service rendered by Mr. Parsons and his associates in regenerating the local Republican party. 51 THE LAND OF PROMISE He many people know that there is a cosony established in California exclusively for colored people, where we can demonstrate to the world our capabilities and our fitness to govern ourselves, and organize and manage our own enterprise; it is true, the time for another great stride forward is at hand, and this important scene in our history is being staged to-day in California, the Land of Promise. It is known as the Allensworth Colony, comprising farm lands and a town. The land is level and rich and does not require clearing or draining. It is on the main line of the Santa Fe Railroad; practically anything in the way of fruit or vegetables can be grown and dairying, poultry raising and hog raising are sure, safe and profitable occupations. Land can be bought in five and ten-acre tracts at the price of one hundred and ten dollars ($110 an acre; two dollars ($2) an acre and two dollars ($2) an acre a month. The town is progressing wonderfully and now has a postoffice, telephone exchange, an immense produce warehouse, school, church, general merchandise store, and a great many very pretty and comfortable homes. There are many times of business. Lots can be had from one hundred dollars ($100) to three hundred dollars ($300); five dollars ($5) down and five dollars ($5) a month. The conditions in California are ideal for a colony of this kind and the company has spent a large amount of time and money in this proposition for us, and the terms are as good as the poorest among us has a chance to buy a piece of property that will help improve his condition. What more could any company offer us? Now it's up to you to have the opportunity. We know what the capital will cost our capital, our energy and our votes will to the race and to each one of us individually. The way to financial as well as to political freedom is open to us. We must grasp the opportunity. We will support and encourage the capitalists who are the most helpful to help us, or others will not follow their footsteps. We must show appreciation and we must show it in a practical way. It is the duty of every good man and woman to buy something in Alenorchis if it is only a town lot for five dollars ($6) down and five dollars ($5) a month. People in every section of the country are becoming interested and are showing their faith in the race and in giving the colony practical support for the war. More people realize the wonderful power of concentration, the concentration of energy, capital and votes. They have been alive for many years to the unlimited possibilities of such concentrations, but it was not easy to find for Col. Allen Allensworth to make for us the opportunity so long prayed for, but at last it is here, and under the most ideal conditions. The colony bearing his name is but the start of a eleven million strong in the United States, would not the combining of our energies, our capital and our votes mean Fortunate, indeed, are those who have intelligence and foresight to be in this great movement. Don't delay. This property is increasing in value rapidly. Decide immediately what you want and send a postoffice order as first payment at once to Hahne & Monk 908 Security Building, Los Angeles Cal, and they will select for you the best location remaining and send you a confirmation, purchase and all information and details. If it not necessary to move there immediately, but it is necessary to secure your property while the prices are low, if you are pressed to go there at once you can have possession as soon as you make your first payment. The laws of California are liberal. There are no discriminations. Our correspondents speak in the highest degree of Allensworth and its advantages. Mesas, Hahne & Monk are men of spandish reputation and have been enforced as leading citizens of California.
