Kriesmann Said to Believe in "Jim Crow" Method.
There is a story going the rounds that Mayor Kriesmann several months ago stated that he was in favor of appointing colored clerks where they did not have to work side by side with white clerks, thereby causing confusion. Negroes are declaring that no trouble arises when a colored Republican and a white Republican vote side by side on election day.
It is said that Mayor Kriesmann was visited by a delegation of Negro citizens recently interested in securing uniformed colored police. They pointed to the colored police on the force in Kansas City who are making good records, but it is said that Mayor Kriesmann stated that he was unalterably opposed to such a plan. Then the visitors referred to the large number of colored mail carriers in St. Louis who have no trouble, although they work in uniforms. Mayor Kriesmann is said to have shocked his visitors by declaring he was also opposed to colored mail carriers going about in uniform.
It is not idle talk to say that the Negro voters are much raised over the indifference of some of the officeholders, and the only reason that they will not make known their displeasure at the coming primaries and other elections will be because Gov. Hudley Mayor Kriesmann and others were up and stop holding them cheap.
FORCIS MAYOR TO SHAKE HANDS
Miss Rosa Lindberry Refuses to Depart from Usual Custom—Girl Graduate Applauded—Graduating Exercises by Baltimore Colored High School Held.
Special to THE NEW YORK AUB
Baltimore, Md. June 20 Miss Rosa Lindberry a member of this year's graduating class of the Colored High School, has been attending graduating exercises of the school for years and is therefore familiar with the customs and uses in such an auspicious occasion. So last Friday evening at the Academy of Music when Mayor James H. Proston awarded her a diploma without shaking hands, as is customary, she caused the large audience to applaud vociferously by grasping the hand of the city's chief executive and forcing him to shake hands.
The Mayor had attended each of the commencements of the white high schools and was reported in the daily papers as having shaken hands with each graduate. It has been a custom with Mayors for some time past to shake hands with graduates and the members this year of the Colored High School were anticipating a commencement of the custom. Principal Mason A Hawkins was calling off the names of each graduate, who was then presented with the diploma by Mayor Proston.
To the surprise of everyone the first three or four graduates received diplomas from the hands of the Mayor, who failed to offer to shake hands. When Miss Limberry's turn came she advanced to the front quickly shipped her right hand into that of the city's chief executive and received her diploma with her other hand. When Mayor Preston shook Miss Limberry's hand the theater shook with applause. Each of the other members of the class was afterwards "pump handled" a little by the Mayor as he handed over the diploma.
An attractive musical program was rendered by a chorus of 450 voices under the direction of Miss Constantha Brown, Mr Harry T. Pratt, a supervisor in the public schools, played a well received violin obligate.
Commencement Address.
The address to the graduates was de heavered by Hon James C Napier Registrar of the Treasury. He said in part There is no phase of American civilization into which we are not honestly struggling to enter Therefore it is absolutely necessary that your youth apply themselves to the task of securing every kind of education, whether higher industrial or technical Each one should be pushed as far as his conditions and his inclinations permit him to go The thing upon which the greatest stress should be placed is that this education, whether higher technical vocational or industrial, should be such as to fit the recipient for the greatest usefulness in life. He should not only do well, but to do his best all that his entire being is capable of encompassing
Whenever injustice and wrong have caused our race to suffer inconvenience and disadvantage, such restrictions have invariably served as an inspiration and an incentive for greater achievement in some direction. If in the end, seagrass law, unjust invasions and wrongful as they may be, are thrust upon us, we should make every effort to turn the result of their execution to our own advantage. Places of business should be established within such district or territory where every necessity and every luxury whether it be food or payment may be purchased by our people. We shall thus be filling the coffers of our own merchant and tradework at least cease the benefit from certain people in this city to red themselves of our presence.
The speaker ended by advising the graduates to cultivate habits of perseverance and industry as well as the extent of the commitment.

My Dear Mr Mayor
Under date of December 3 I sent you a letter with physician's certificates inviting your attention to the matter of Samuel J Battle, and I have your kind acknowledgment of December 3 that you would look into the matter
I am quite sure, Mr. Mayor, that you will see that Mr. Battle gets a square deal. He passed the examination for the position of a policeman, and it would be regretted to have it thought that those in control of such matters were unfavorable to the appointment of segregated policemen on the force. As you know there are colored policemen in Brooklyn who have rendered most efficient service, and I think that you looked with friendliness at the time they were appointed your general reputation for fairness heals me to believe that you will see that Mr. Battle is given that consideration to which he is entitled and as the police department in under your control I shall hope to see Mr. Battle appointed

The twelfth annual meeting of the National Negro Business League will be held at Little Rock Ark, Wednesday Thursday and Friday, August 16, 17 and 18. The program for the meeting is now being formulated and will soon be published.
The progress being made by the Negro people of Oklahoma is induced the officers of the league to set aside the morning session. Thursday August 17 as Oklahoma day. Opportunity will be afforded the live Negro business men of this new State to put before the country not only the opportunities that are open to enterprising people, but a statement as to how these opportunities are already being taken advantage of along all lines of business and in professional and educational directions as well. The Negro town of Boley, for instance, has just in stalled a $35,000 light and power plant and there are many other evidences of superior progress being made by the Negroes of that State.
Hon. Sopra A. Jones president of the State Negro Business League of Arkansas announces that the State League and the Local Negro Business League of Little Rock now have their plans fully matured for the coming meeting. The Chamber of Commerce and the Board of Trade through their respective secretaries are in active cooperation with Messrs. Jones, Bush, Booker and others. The Entertainment Committee of the Chamber of Commerce has appropriated $400 for the entire amount of the league and will publish the plans of the meeting. The Local Negro Business League of Little Rock will make biggest contributions of features of entertainment to the society prior to the coming meeting. Delegates from the League and Western States of Arkansas will bring their own voices to the meeting. They will represent their interests in the plans of the league and will participate in the various aspects of the meeting. The League and Western States will participate in the meeting to see something of the progress being made in the degrees of the South.
"STAY ON THE FARM"
Slogan of Fifth Annual Session of State Association of Teachers in Colored Schools Held at Utica—Prof. J. A. Martin Re-elected President.
Special to The New York Am
Utica, Miss., June 23—The fifth annual session of the State Association of Teachers in Colored Schools was held at the Utica Normal and Industrial Institute, June 20, 21, 22, Prof J A Martin, of Jackson, presiding. The meeting was attended by a large number of teachers.
The convention was marked by several strong and important papers bearing upon various phases of the profession, the chief of which were an interesting talk on the Jeanes Fund by Prof J H Webber, Darbun, a discussion of "How to Make Negro Education Popular in the South," by W A Battle, of Okolona Normal and Industrial Institute, "Self-Help in the Sevondarn Schools," by Prof G C Moselev, Christ's College, Jackson, and "The Responsibility of Women as Teachers," by Misses Armelda Greene and L P Winfrey, of Jackson.
The "back to the farm" slogan was changed here to "stay on the farm" Principal Holtzelzw declaring that the farm was too important in the economy of the race and the nation to be made a refuge for failures in other walks of life. Farming subjects were given place and the lion's share of attention and industrial education was stressed by nearly every speaker, while President Martin, in his annual address made several important recommendations with reference to agricultural and other industrial works in the public schools.
Prof T. T. Hubert, the new president of Jackson College, by whose coming means the placing of an all Negro faculty into this well-compiled institution, was introduced to the association.
Dr I. B. Lehman, president of Southern Christian Institute, Edwards-Miss., spoke to the teachers at a special four Wednesday and Bishop Theodore D. Bratton, of the Episcopal Diocese of Mississippi, was, the guest of the institution and the association Thursday.

WALDRON IGNORANT OF RULES IN ARMY
Criticises President in Open Letter, Alleging Discrimination
TAFT IS NOT RESPONSIBLE
Chief Executive Has Not the Power to Order a Soldier to Take Examination for Promo ion.
Special to THE NEW YORK AQR
Washington. June 27 - The open letter of the Rev J Milton Waldron, pastor of the Shiloh Baptist Church of this city, and national organizer of the National Independent Political League, to President Taft, alleging discrimination against Negro soldiers in the army, has caused your correspondent to make some investigations to assert the truth or falsity of Rev Waldron's charges. It might be said in the onset that the name National Independent Political League is a misnomer. National League of Colored Democrats would be more fitting, since all its officers, including the Rev Milton Waldron and a few others who do not vote lent what influence they had to try to the advocacy of Democrats' cause during the last campaign. However, this can not alter the facts in the case.
Rev Waldron evidently wrote his letter to the President without first informing himself. Your correspondent holds no brief for the army and doubts not but there have been and may be now specific cases of the termination bar. Rev Waldron presents no specific case, and yet he in effect commands the President to give colored soldiers, as well as soldiers of Jewish or Hebrew extraction the same privileges and opportunities for promotion offered white soldiers.
What the Rev. Dr. Waldron Assumes
Rev Waldron assumes that President Taft can ordered up any soldier whom he may desire, to take examination for promotion, for in his letter he says
The examination or enlisted man for promotion to the position of second lieutenant in the Regular Army which you have ordered and which appeared in the public press of June 9 does not contain the name a single colored soldier nor have we seen the name of any such soldier in any list for examination which has been ordered by you since your imminence of the officer of Chief Executive of the Nation Continuing Rev Waldron says.
It must be that your failure to order such men before the Examination board of the Army for promotion is not right.
Key. Walton because of his many considerable treaties of army laws and regulations respecting promotions holds the President responsible for something over which he has no control. It no colored soldiers have been ordered be the Examination Board, it is then fault and not the President as will be seen by reading the act of July 30, 1892 which provides that
All unmarried soldiers under thirty years of age who are citizens of the United States are physically sound, who have served honorably not less than two years in the Army * * * may compete for promotion under any system authorized by this act
What the Law Prescribes.
Thus it will be seen that the act countenances no discrimination. The existing regulations, prescribed by the President for the examination of enlisted applicants for appointment as second lieutenants under the act of July 30, 1842 contains the following provisions, applicable to whites and blacks alike.
The enlisted man who desires to appear for examination will submit through military channels an application so that it will reach his department commander on or before February 1st of the year in which he desires to take the examination. The Company Commander in forwarding such application will verify the statement of service given, and will state specificity whether in his opinion the soldier fulfills each of the conditions herein before required. * * *
The Post Commander will upon receipt of such application cause the applicant to be examined by a medical officer as to his physical qualifications and will forward the report of such examination with the application.
Each Department Commander will each such application in a board of five officers, two of whom shall be medical officers whose duties will be combined in importing into and reporting upon the physical qualifications of the applicants. * * *
To conduct the preliminary examination. He will order before thus boards, he will order in his nomination as appear to fulfill all the requirements he is indicated.
The grade of second grade is being given to
final results of the fifth day the ap-
portment in the following order
toward first, second, third and from the United States Muni-
tary Academy during the final
war, second of collected men
whose fitness for promotion shall
have been determined by competi-
tive examination, third of candi-
dates from civil life * * * * so
lated by competitive examination
from those designated by the War Department.
Only Generalized in Complaint.
Now can Rev Waldron sight a single case where a colored enlisted man has applied, taken and passed the examination and then failed of promotion because he was colored? If he can he ought to be the first to call the President's attention to that specific case. Or can Rev Waldron recall a single case where a colored enlisted man has applied to take the examination, meeting all preliminary qualifications, and was refused opportunity to take the examination because of color? If he can it is his duty to remind the President of the specific case, and we doubt not but that right prevail as swiftly as in the case in which a Jewish enlisted man figured. Your correspondent recalls but two instances where colored enlisted men have regularly applied, taken and passed the examination for commissioned officer, and these men were John E. Green, Twenty-fourth Infantry, and Benjamin O. Davis Ninth Cavalry. Both men were appointed and are now commissioned officers.
The failure of colored enlisted men to be 'ordered' to take the examination for promotion is their own, because they have failed to apply and not the result of discrimination or oversight on the part of the President. And all this information was obtainable by Rev Waldron before he wrote his letter to the President had he washed or taken the time to be advised
BRUCE GIVES STATISTICS
Says There Are 142 Public High Schools for Negro Youth in America —Large Increase in 30 Years—Facilities for Education Very Good
Special to The New York Age
Washington, D.C., June 17. In presenting diplomas to the graduates of the Armstrong Manual Training School at Howard Theatre last week, Roscoe Conkling Brue, assistant Superintendent of Public Schools, said in part, I appreciate the honor which has been extended to me by the principal and faculty of the Armstrong School. The privilege of presenting the diplomas to this rare group of young men and women is one which would appeal to the least imaginative of men. I puns of the ambitions of mothers and fathers that are realized to-day. I think of the struggles and sacrifices these faithful men and women have made to give their boys and girls the opportunities of an education plonged through 12 or 13 years. I think of the moral and intellectual victories which these young men and women have won over distractions of a thousand names and over the arduous tasks of school life. I think of their enduring effort and patience and determination. I think of the happy serviceable lives they will lead in this and other communities. I think of the mostitable power for refinement and for social uplift which they will extort wherever their lots may be cast in the difficult years that are to come. I rejoice and an exceedingly glad
Lot, I should do injustice to the significance of this occasion did I not mention the larger problem in which the endeavors of the Armstrong School are involved. In those cities and states where separate schools for our youth are maintained, what progress has been made in extending high school opportunities? How do the facilities which exist here at the Capital of the nation compare with those in other localities? Is there anything in the local situation which bids us take heed that substantial improvement may result? At these questions on this day of rejoicing we shall do well to glance.
"My first question relates to the enlargement of facilities for secondary education in those communities where separate colored high schools are maintained. In 1880 there were thirty-six public high schools, for colored youth in the Southern states, with 5,217 students, in 1890, 6,14 with 11,480 students, and in 1901, 100, with 12,202 students.
"In 1910 there were 142 public high schools for Negro youth in America. These schools were scattered in 21 states, and the District of Columbia, they enrolled 8,973 students of whom 62 per cent were boys.
From 1880 to 1910 a period of only 30 years the number of high schools grow from 16 to 142 an increase of 294 per cent, and the number of students from 5,237 to 5,973, an increase of 71 per cent. Truly these facts reflect great credit not only upon the states and cities which made it possible, but also upon this great democratic nation.
These young men and women before us are especially to be congratulated upon the fact that they have some reasonable conception of the life careers upon which they are to enter. They have enjoyed some preliminary training for these careers. The most eminent American educators has recently remarked. In secondary education the high school and middle arts have a decided advantage as regards native power within the pupil population.
A pupil in high school has made a primary degree with a good education and the first directive to the way we want to be. You are being trained up in the primary education.
Some of you were impressed truly early
in our education. We were proud to see you
education and training provide sons and
daughters to the Army. The School
Armstrong will remember you will en-
courage you will be proud of you."

PULLMAN MEN TO GET INCREASE
Announcement Made That They Will Receive 10 per Cent. Raise
PORTERS ARE DIVIDED
While Some Are Heartily in Favor of Proposed Increase, Others Are Not So Jubilant
WONDERING ABOUT THE TIPS
Many Porters Think Public Will Either Stop Giving Tips or Reduce Them If Their Wages Are Raised.
According to advices from Chicago, the Pullman Company contemplates increasing the wages of its porters ten per cent and the conductors five per cent. Just how soon the order will be sent out to the many Pullman offices throughout the country has not been made public.
The announcement that the Pullman porters are to get an increase in wages has occasioned a controversy which has divided the colored railroad men into two factions. One faction is heartily in favor of the proposed increase while the other is unalterably opposed to the plan. Those who have become enthusiastic over the news that the porters would be paid more money assert that tips are not as frequent and as large as some years ago, and claim that if the Pullman people increase their monthly stipend they will, therefore, receive "living" wages.
The porters who regard the increase plan with marked distaste admit that they do not receive living" wages from the company, but they argue that there is a possibility of the traveling public being misled by the announcement that all Pullman porters are to be given more pay, that those who have been in the habit of tipping will either stop giving tips or greatly reduce the amount of money they have been wont to give to the obliging "knight of the whist broom." Although it has been publicly made known that Pullman porters will be given an increase in wages, the heads of the New York division, from Superintendent Merrill down, are not inclined to discuss the subject at length. It is admitted however that the Pullman Company is seriously considering the advisability of raising the wages of the conductors and porters, the conductors to receive a five per cent increase and the porters a ten per cent increase.
The wages of Pullman porters at this time are from $35 to $40 a month. They make most of their money in tips

Dr. Powell Tella Members of his Church
How to Keep Young Folks Off of
Street Corners—Would Provide
Young Men with Gymnasiums and
Young Women with Reading Rooms.
At the installation of officers of the
Usher Board of the Abyssinian Baptist
Church, held last Monday evening, the Rev. Dr. A. Clayton Powell aroused
enthusiasm by stating that if he ever
erected a church in New York City he
would see that reading rooms and a
headquarters for the teaching of domestic science were provided for the
young women and a gymnasium for the
young men, and that he would insist
on social meetings being held Dr. Powell expressed the belief that if the
churches would make a greater effort
to furnish young men and women innocent amusement it would tend to keep
them off the street corners and out of saloons
The ushers were thanked by Dr. Powell for the courteous attention they
had shown members and strangers during the two and a half years of his pastorate, the speaker declaring that the position of usher was one of the most responsible of a congregation.
The officers for the ensuing year are:
Mr. Burton, president. K Lewis, vice-president. A Carter, financial secretary; H C Willis, recording secretary. W. Walker, treasurer. V Willis, custodian; Mr. Kiel, chaplain.
To Mrs Sarah L Jones chairman of the Reception Committee and others deserve the credit of the collation which followed. Short speeches were made by the Roy Haskett and Dracaa Taylor and Dayn and others.

St. Mark's Lyceum Closse.
Last Thursday evening a large number of persons attended the closing of St. Mark's Lyceum, despite the stormy weather. The meeting was a most unique social event and the program arranged by the president contained such popular artists as Miss Luelia E.

Abysinian Baptist Church.
Soldom has it been the privilege of New York people to listen to two more powerful, practical and pointed sermons than the two delivered at the Abyssinian church last Sunday. Kgf J. Hackett, a schoolmasters, helped J. Hackett, Powell, occupied the pulpit in the morning, and Rev. Dr C T Walker, the noted pulpitier and lecturer at night.

Mrs Thosiaudia Odbell was for the eighteenth year reported a membership of 2,250. 244 additions having been made in the last twelve months. James H Porte, secretary of the trustee board, reported that the church collections amounted to $3,000,000. He included the amount raised by the Sunday School and other auxiliary or the collections from the property. Mr Porte also reported that the church had paid $3,000 during the year on its debts. Mr Porte presect at both the morning and evening services at the Abysianian church next Sunday.
Bethal Chapel.
The A M E Church was founded in New York in 1820. To this date there is but one established church of that denomination in the city. But this is not to be taken as the only church on the west side north of 50th street. Bethel Chapel will before long become established as the Second A M E Church of New York. Last week a party reliable for many times more than the amount invoked, authorized and empowered the minister of Bethel Chapel to secure by lease a building in which to open a Mission House with such institutional church features as might seem best suited to the needs of the immigrant population. The church acknowledges that the money waited, the church is worth in the uplift of the people more than ten policemen and one pastor is a mighty backing, to the police, the health officers, the humanitarian and all others who seek the betterment of a neighborhood.
The man who has opened this door is one of the broadest minded men of the race in the city. That the venture will succeed is a certainty. At present the place of worship is not large enough for the crowd, the streets are too narrow for the services and there is no room for other than regular church work, but arrangements will be made without delay for room and for enlarged features of service to the people. Last Sunday the pastor, Rev J. David Anderson. Mr. I. said, I feel my age now and I am still getting tough to see this work will start. I will live expenses I do not ask any compensation this year. I will use what I have learned in my former experience in New York and elsewhere to help get this needed work founded. The plan it is said is to create a neighborhood work in connection with the work of the district. This will enhance a reading room and other special features.

A silver medal as the second prize was awarded to Master Leonard Bowles of the St. Philips Sunday School. The third prize, a silver medal, was awarded to Anita Roval of the Trinity Sunday School.

Mother Zion.
Sunday was children's day. In the morning pastor Holder praised the text there came a man named Joseph whose name was the same as that of the man and indented it with that God who saw the man and that human beings constituted it with means which would suit his purpose for a time and eternal world. In this transaction he gave man an idea which would conceive of the abilities to choose. A man asked that man has a business of most importance in the world his mission concern two worlds and is for the highest good of man and the glory of God in Jesus Christ. An appreciation for man as an individual might today as he has never been recognized by the church. Jesus the Master teacher emphasized the many centuries ago. The text says: "There came a man sent from God," therefore the man was not only in the mind of God but was in reality in the conventions of God. After studying the text he appears to be that of a herald. In fact "I am the voice of one crying in the will."
magnificent name of the Supreme and one of the
Lord Jesus was mentioned in the account
of Heaven to Jesus by testimony of Jesus to
behold of the Supreme Head of the universe.
The jesson which comes to us is not only freighted with grace. But with strong suggestions as to the place, purpose and of a human being, therefore the weight is of a human being, therefore the weight is why and for what purposes we are here, and endeavor to faithfully carry out the will of God.
The Sunday School presented a splendid juvenile program in the afternoon. Mrs. Johnson had their little ones under good control. The parents are to be commended for the clean and neat appearance that their children made.
Mr. Justice, president of the Literary Society, gave a very good program. He is proud of the public a great his official production
Alonso Reyes had charge of the evening services. The program was as follows. Selection by the choir, scripture lesson by the pastor; prayer by Rev. E V C Eato, singing; remarks by Mr. Reyes, followed by a reading by Miss Johnson, followed by a Jackson solo, Miss Mabel Biggs; address, Mr Green, of the City College; address by Prof Haynes of Flask University. Each of these made an impression for good and did much towards encouraging the cause of education. The floral decorations were simple and pleasing. The students to be graduated Mr. Fields of Portchester, N. Y. comes in for special mention. He not only gave large bouquets of flowers, but gave also two large vases for the pedestals. Superintendent Eato has the school well disciplined, is giving the pastor every encouragement and enduring him to moble the extent that he is now called "Father Eato" and he graciously smiles and accepts the title, for it is a compliment.
Union Baptist Church
Our pastor attended the World's Baptist Alliance that met in Philadelphia. At 11 a.m. Dr. C. T Walker, the pastor of the Tabernacle Baptist Church, Augusta, Ga., was present to the great delight of the Christian citizens of New York, for it seems if there were delegates from all the churches in the city to listen to a strong and eloquent sermon on "Christian Encouragement." It seems as if Dr Walker preaches better and better each time. The only regret we have about the doctor is that he is not restoring in the city.
At 2 p.m. even though stormy, Superintendent W. H. Johnson and the workers of the Sunday School were out in full. The Missionary's Sisters had a splendid meeting at 4 p.m. Mrs A Williams the president had a interesting program at 5:30.

Fernell, were out 200 strong, with the Eastern Star and the Daughters of Sphinx of the Mystic Shrine. The sermon was delivered by our pastor, the illustrious grand chaplain. He used for his text, I am Alpha and Omega. He endeavored to show that masonry is the mother of that manual organization, also stated that manual things that were charged to masonry was untrue, but stated that true masonry) had stood in all ages, for the protection of life, and not destruction. Our sitting capacity was overtaxed in the morning and in the evening. Offering for the day amounted to $180.38
Special sermons will be preached both morning and evening by our pastor At 11 a.m., Subject 'Sold Out.'

Baltimore, June 28.—The closing exercises of the public schools are now being held and those who completed various courses are being awarded certificates of commencement and the Fifth Grade sermon at Sunday with the baccalaureate sermon by Rev. W. A. C. Hughes. "You shall enter into sort of partnership with man," he said. "At no time in the world's history has the query of 'Am my brother, ye son of mine?' for the new Christ would prompt than today. We are not icebergs on the ocean of time, each floating by himself. We are not in a little birch canoe paddling all by ourselves, but are rather aboard a great ocean liner with a large crew working to keep it afloat. We are through the deep. The man who calls alone in his little canoe over this sea of our twentieth century, 'We will find the tide too strong and will be unguild. Mankind has learned the lesson of unity. The race is a great brotherhood and is uniting us all out of heart and head to the world's progress."
The commencement exercises will be held tomorrow night. The address to the gradates will be delivered by Hon James C. Slagle (Missouri State University) and Stenoutte will deliver the invocation. Mayor Preston will confer diplomas upon sixty two students.

HARDLY A LITTLE.
Commenting upon the mess in which the present loud mouthed Governor of the State of South Carolina finds himself, the Rock Hill (S. C.) Messenger, a sprightly but careful sheet, says
If this Fielder-Reage matter is thoroughly afflicted as we think it should be we have no doubt but that little will hereafter be said about the Negro and carpeting steal in radical times'
We have heard very little in these late years about the carpet baggers' and "Negro rule" in the South because those who used themselves to harping upon these familiar strings accomplished the purpose of their song, got into all the jobs, shut out the Negro in particular and through them all southern Republicans. The old tale of the horrors of "reconstruction" we hear very little of in the North because Northern editors and professors many of them very weak things, took up their stream where the Southern left off. They do that now. Let a dozen reputable newspapers in the South start up a slander against colored people and let their conclusions defy every tact and ignore every rule of reason. Two days following this exhibition, led usually by the subtle yet brilliant Sun whose repetitory staff reads like twenty Southern families starving on Want street because they do not like work, the press of the North will fall in and swear away a people to gain a crown to error.
The fact is, the only time in all its history that the South had any form of just government was in the days following the Rebellion Every man had a vote and no man owned the State. We had no lynchings, for lynchings have grown out of disfranchisement, and there was little or no friction between the races, for the white people knew that all men stood equal before the law Only since the North and the Republican party deserted the colored men to the mercy of those known to the world as unalterable opponents to civil and political equality for colored men, did this breach between the races begin to widen Robbed of every political right, how shall we reason that men anywhere, in a Republic, could be secure in any other right?
As for rottenness, why, compared with present conditions in the South, the faultiest State among them all in the period of reconstruction was virtue's shrine. Further, there is not in all the records of that period a single case to show that "carpet-haggers and Negroes" ever sought to rob a white Democrat of a single right that was his under the laws and the Constitution. White men, Southerners to the manner born, joined hands with colored men and worked in the politics of the States without serious confictions. Good laws were put on the books, and the best free public school system the South ever had was at that time established. We had none of this "social equality" talk and it was then unnecessary to enact laws to keep white women away from colored men. All these differences, the reader will see, are results, not of "carpet bag" rule, but rather of the rule of a political party built on race and color and fashioned by as unscrubulous set of red-faced bloats as history knows anything about
White men, North and South, ought to be ashamed ever to let one word fall in condemnation of the work of colored men in the South when colored men had some political power there. Fifth to the right, fifth to the left, fifth in the West and East, fifth everywhere, if any one can open the records and point to a parallel of the criminal tendencies of the white men who are in control of the affairs of the country at the present, a nation will be greatly eased and obligated. Vote selling halloys stuffing grafting, stealing, bruising, drunkenness, "kiting" city funds, these under the dominance of the "superior" race, unaided by colored men, are now a country's pillars of fire.
The Governor of South Carolina is an ignorant wretch, more scorned against than sunning, who got into office by lying and misrepresentation, and who belongs elsewhere than in his high seat at Columbia, but he is not alone in his glory His friends and kind are in the saddle in every State of the union, and they are riding to a mighty fall.
THE FIRST POLICE OFFICER.
More than two years ago The New York Ace took up the fight for representation of colored men on the police force of this town. By persuasion, by letter, by visits, by requests and by demands we have kept up this fight. We have not been swerved from the course we thought proper to pursue if anything more than talk was to be accomplished. We saw in our proposition nothing of politics, for proper representation of taxpayers and citizens in every department of the city government has nothing of politics in it. This is a matter of simple justice, and protests clothing in thought other than this will tall to the ground.
Tuesday of this week the Police Commissioner of the city announced the appointment of Samuel J Battle to the force the first colored police officer on Manhattan Island. Through many tools, snares and disappointments, Mr. Battle has made his way to the force and through all his striving to get there he has found The Ace a willing and ready friend, long not on words or empty braggado, but on patience with work. We claim nothing not ours in claiming the appointment of Battle a victory not only for the persistence of The Ace but also for its methods, which are not in common with froh me and frightening.
The Mayor and the Police Commissioner will find in Mr Battle a good and faithful officer, for he bears an excellent reputation. After him will come more of his kind to fill places in the Police Department and in many another department of the city government. When the news of Mr Battle's appointment came into these rooms we were looking on a picture in the Chicago Idea. It was a plot graph of the colored police officers of that city. There must have been unity of them there. In season we shall have such a picture here.
IN DUE SEASON.
Nowhere on this page there is reproduced an editorial from the pages of the New York Independent, that is no more afraid to tell the truth than it is to think with its head and not with its feet. The readers of THE AGE will follow that editorial with interest and print.
Incidents such as this that the Independent writes about, getting into history in all sections of the country may for the moment be discouraging to colored people, white colored and black colored people, for the colors among us, thanks to the vanity and virtues of the 'proud Anglo-Saxon," who refuses to receive his own, are more than the colors that decorated Joseph's coat, but they are not discouraging to those who have peeped in the history of the world. The American white man is no better, though he may be a great deal worse, than the white men and the black men of other days, and when these tried to do the things now attempted by the "superior race" they couldn't get away with them. And the American white man will not get away with his crimes and injustice without paying the price.
We know nothing of this St. Louis case, but we know a great deal of many another case in which there has been involved the confusions of the blood of the whites with the blood of the blacks. History would surrender its job if it were compelled to write the records as the records are. We know this, however, that the family sought to be disgraced and humiliated is a family of culture and refinement and the betters of the "white" family that throws fury fits for the benefit of the batters. St. Louis may be worked up over all this disturbance because an erring boy's father got mad over his son's choice, but what in this wide world would really happen if we could place our hands on every American in whose veins is the blood of Ethiopia? The mills of the gods grind without ceasing and the blown bladder of the white man's prejudice and pride is due to burst.
FISK UNIVERSITY.
Lask University at Nashville, Tenn. closed last week a memorable year Great institution of learning, the training ground of a regiment of men and women now distinguished in the affairs of the country, it is now only in the first years of its larger usefulness. President Gates is filled with the spirit and bubbling over with enthusiasm. Aside from his experience as an educator, in a work of another character, of course, he enjoys the heritage left to him and to all by Erastus M. Craath, who, like Samuel Chapman Armstrong, did nothing for applause and shaken no duty.
President Gates will find that it will do him no harm to hold the confidence of the colored people of Nashville, to whom Frank has always been the child of their pride. He may gain all the ap phrase from his white neighbors, he may have heaped upon him instudied praise from the daily press and the Confederate veterans, but if he is unfortunate in his relationship with Nashville colored people, he will find his usefulness greatly impaired. He will find later that

his work at Fisk is over. The president of our greatest seat of higher education we exhort to the exercise of wisdom and judgment, and colored Nashville to the exercise of patience
AN APOLOGY.
In one of its issues of last week The World carried a short dispatch telling how the body of an aged colored servant had been buried in a certain cemetery by the side of his late employer. The next morning after the dispatch came a long, long "story" telling how wrought up the rich white people had become since they had heard of the outrage" Names were given, and there was a description of some high monuments that arise in stately grandeur in certain section of this city of the dead. The story we read with no little interest, and were ridgant at this exhibition of assunny by good people otherwise respectable. We had a single brief moment of relief, the name of the stately old warrior, too brave ever to be a coward, Morgan Bulkeley, was not included in the list of those who were standing on their heads, and bugging everybody else to assume that happy position.
Several days thereafter the following apology appeared in an inconspicuous place in The World.
In publishing a story from Hartford, Conn., yesterday morning, in which it was said that some of the residents of that city including George H. Batterson, a relative of James H. Batterson, copied to the Instrument in the Cedar River, was one of the servant for the late Addison Wells. The World regards to that it was mistaken Mr. Batterson, when seen yesterday, declared that he had not and would not oppose the Instrument of the Negro body in the city in which relatives of his are buried.
Robert S. Strasser, superintendent of the cemetery told a World reporter yesterday afternoon that several other Negroes have been buried at Cedar Hill, and pointed out a paragraph in the Instrument that declares that the body of no person shall be denied instrument there.
"Misled." And often The World and all the rest of them, have been misled, misled in many directions, sometimes with dreadful consequences to the reputation of an entire race, and usually with a damaging effect upon the name of unoffending men. Ninety-nine per cent of the reports of crimes committed by colored men is misleading. Ninety-nine per cent of the "indignation" of some white community against a colored man or their colored neighbors is misleading. Ninety-nine per cent of the "vice" laid at the door of all colored people is misleading. Three-fourths of the reports of the causes of lynching in the South are misleading, and fifty per cent. of the reports of the activities of colored people in all sections of the land is slanderous.
The World knows this. The Sun knows this. The Times knows this. The Press knows this. The Tribune knows this, and the American knows this as well as it knows anything else. And yet, with respect to the colored people of New York and of the South, the columns of these newspapers are filled day after day with misleading and slanderous reports. What white men in the South employed to gather "news" fail to do, is well done by the Southern white men in the North, who dominate the newspapers of the North and have constructed a machinery that worked with an incomparable regularity to "break" a people and keep them from rising in their own country. It is time for the white press to give the Negro a square deal, and give it to him without fumbling
COLORED ARMY OFFICERS
Just now, according to a statement recently given out by the Secretary of War, there is an excellent chance for young colored men to become officers in the United States army Secretary of War Stimson gives out the following.
No political or other influence is required to secure one of these appointments. He wants to get young men of the proper physical and moral turbine and the only requirement is that they shall pass the prescribed examination. While a diploma from a college is preferred it is not required and any young man who can pass the examination will have an equal chance with those who have acquired diplomas. For the 22-year-old in the army and the class just graduated from West Point, just eighty-eight of them
The age limit is from 21 to 27 years, and any young American who wants to be an officer in the United States Army can have it for the asking. Secretary Stimson has had compiled circulars of information with reference to these appointments which can be had upon application to the War Department.
We should like to see a large number of our brightest young men take the examination and make an earnest effort to become army officers. In this way we can in a measure regain what we have lost by not being able to get young clothed men into West Point.
TAFT AND HIS CO-WORKERS.
Lafte, Wickersham and Hollies! In that trio the Negro race in America has three strong friends. They never flinch. All have been tested over and over again.
Mr Hollies has been unswerving in his loyalty to and friendship for the inter-
ests of the Negro ever since he went into public life in Washington.
Mr. Wickersham has never flinched. When it has been suggested that a colored man be taken into his department, whether he went in as an Assistant District Attorney or Assistant Attorney General of the United States, he had no faint heart. And, of course, Mr. Taft has shown too often by his actions what he thinks of the Negro race to need at our hands any special praise at this time. The way these three men stood by W. H. Lewis for Assistant Attorney General, at every point urging his confirmation, is evidence of their courage and of their friendship.

So we now have an official "Sensor of Literature" We have long suspected the now titly decorated and reigning force of letters, for these many years the dictaries have been mutilated at pleasure and spurned at will The Independent gives us the news
We thank the "Evening Sun" of this city, for having even facetiously praised "The Independent" as an authority on matters of taste. To be praised by any edition of the Sun" is praised indeed. We allow that its "literature" and "spurned at will" is literature, that its every utterance is "thought expressed in terms of taste". Indeed that it is the high paladin of thought, the Beau Brummel of taste, and above all the Roger Asham of verbal exactitude. As it credits us with the desire to have an official Center of Literature" will itself take the office, or has it not already taken it.
And so it is. But the official censor's fantastic assumption often leads it in all kinds of crimes against philology and plain common sense. The efforts of the censor to fasten the word "negress" upon colored women is not only a crime against decency and language, but they are going to bring sorrow to somebody less famous some of these days.

In another place on this page will be found an editorial taken from the study columns of the Boston Herald. Read that, and see what leading thinkers on the continent think of useful education as exemplified in the Boston "Tech," Pratt in Brooklyn, and other publicly endowed institutions, and then lay our own Hampton and Tuskegee. General Armstrong had the idea with respect to the kind of education needed by the bulk not only of colored people but of all people, but it was left for his discipline to force that idea on the philosophy of education, and give it a place in the curriculum of universal training. What does the Herald mean when it says: "Wisely, 2300, however, he (Booker Washington) remembers the fine art in which the colored people chiefly shine, that of vocal music, etc." There is no art in which colored people do not shine, and to the the very fine art of painting they have given in Henry O. Tanner, the greatest living painter.
NOTE AND COMMENT
With the coming of Spring there comes also the issue of the realtion and the phrase maker. The coming or departure of Spring, or of any season, however, has no appreciable influence upon the thoughts or words of the rebels, their children, and their defenders, neither of whom can persuade himself to follow Lee and surrender. The spirit and hope of secession, like the fires of youth, die hard. The South, through two centuries to come, will still defend the affirmative of the debate, that the South had a divine right to secede.
Very recently Mr. Bailey of Texas, a Senator in the Congress, who thanks to newspaper correspondents, enjoys a wide reputation as a constitutional lawyer, is yet a champion of secession, contending with eager heart and happy mind that the South was right in its attitude toward the Union, and then finally in seceding. Mr. Bailey and his kind, and the historians of the South, who write history with the pen of prejudice, are answered by the New York Times, which says:
It seems a little late for Senator Bailey, of Texas, to be contending in public that in 1860 and 1861 the Southern States had the right to accede, and to place the contention on the issue of slavery for forefathers never would have consented to the formation of a union that could not be dissolved "for cause." In one sense no such union was or is, possible, since dissolution by successful war is always a conceivable possibility. It is also possible to establish a Union that could not legally be dissolved, under a Constitution that made no provision for a legal dissolution, can hardly now be disputed. On the other hand it is equally clear that the Constitution does not provide for the dissolution of the claim of the Southern States to the right of secession.
It is hardly too much to say that the man of 1873 had the question, and they ended the lasting settlement of the question of slavery which ultimately made the contest so excasionable. That may be called a back of courage it may have been a manlike man who looked back on simple, the only course practicable in the then existing circumstances. Since it was politically impossible at the close of the eighteenth century to arrive upon a plan for disposing of slavery, it must be seen now that the formation of the Union with a National Government of autantitative authority and power with a concrete National citizenship and, as a consequence of industry throughout the whole territory of the Union, had previous results. It made possible the immense development of the resources of the land. It welled all the free States, and to a great extent the slave States as well into an organic nationality. It kindled the career and daring spirit of expansion which rapidly seized and in the way of occupation the nation away from the Gulf of Mexico to Puget Sound, from the Atlantic to the Pacific. It made of the Mississippi River the channel of a commerce that bound the North to the South in a vital partner-
ship against the dissolution of which the great Northwest was ready to fight. Thus it came about, when slavery famished in its self-made desert, grouped for still unlightened regions, and when the leaders of the slave States saw that their control over the final and decisive struggle of the Union won. It was a tremendously costly victory. The South, in the sincerity and loyalty of its belief in the right it maintained, made as guilant a fight as history recites. In courage, endurance, energy, skill resourcefulness, and in heroic devotion, its record is unsurpassed. It was literally, in all tragic significance of the phrase, a death struggle, for the South survive.
Then came, in a sense different from that usually implied and far wider, the process of reconstruction, the upbuilding of an integral Union in which the vanquished and the victors in the war had built up and shared a share and prosper. Necessarily it was a painful and confused process, involving much that was mistaken and some things that were evil. But measured by the extent and nature of the task, compared with the outcome of any like trial in history, it has been marvelously successful. In which it has fitted the Nation, and on which the Nation is splendidly unburied, is one of limitless progress. As we have said it seems a little late now to discuss the right" of the South to bring on the adjustment of the Union, and it was done in obedience to forces far greater than either party to the conflict was conscious of. So far as human forsight can be trusted, no like appeal will ever again be to be made. And the Nation, with some pardonable exceptions, as content to turn an unjustified upon a wonderful, promising future.

"United Together"—O. K.
"United together we stand, divided we fall."

The time we waste contending can be used to a great add-on in going forward. Helena (Ark) Reporter
It Would Be Intergating
The dense ignorance and prejudice displayed by the white people of Baltimore is appalling. They have a law which says, Negroes or colored persons shall not live except as servants, in a block with white people," note that only divides the population into black and white, and all other dark races come under that ban, if the law is carried out to the letter. We do not wish Baltimore any bad luck but we would like to see the result of a Japanese moving into a restricted neighborhood, for they not only want to be free, but can fight to prove it with a country as enterprising as ours to back them — Chicago Defender
Idly Working from the Top
We may continue to erect and purchase churches, foster and promulgate protective organizations like that of the Young Men's Christian and Young Women's Christian Associations, but we may also let a higher and better influence radiate from those homes little if any good will be accomplished. Let the thoughtful Christian people of this city begin a crusade as has been suggested and see that every man and woman in our country present too much idleness among us. The minister in the pulpit and every member of his congregation ought to beat themselves to rid this community of these octupus of idleness, these forms of evil, such as infest many of the corpses in this city. Philadelphia Courant.
Tell 'Em About It. King
The Negro judge and the Negro church should not forget from whence cometh their strength. They control thousands of dollars yearly, nearly all of which is placed in the banks owned and operated by white men, notwithstanding the numerous numbers. There are five colored banks in Texas and out of something like $2 million of colored money belonging to colored bolognese and churches not less part of it can be found on deposit in colored banks. This condition must be separated from his money - ballasted excess.
PAVING THE WAY
Through the Practical Influence of Tuskegee Upon Present-Day Education There Will Come the Sure Triumph of the Blacks.
(Editionnel, Hostp, Herold.)
Climate conditions make the school year at Taukegge Institute relatively short and accordingly the Commencement Exercises down there are already over while yet most Northern schools have been under examination. As for the last fourteen years the graduating addresses at Taukegge this year were mainly concerned with the practical work of the students. The sabbatian spoke in English and discussed The Care and Feeding of Cattle for Milk and the Training of Farmers in going to a stairway which he had made with his own hands, told how he had done the work. A girl graduate talked of the "Negro Dressmaker in Her
Community," and illustrated her address with the actual execution of millinery work in the presence of the audience. A striking feature of the exercise was a dramatic representation upon the stage of actual bloom-making, plastering, wheelwrighting and the like. There were theoretical discussions as well on such topics as "Charrying the School Into the Hotel," "Modern Fashion and Production," but the actual significance of training at Tinkwer was chiefly emphasized.
It is easy to see in all this the homely wisdom of the remarkable man at the head of Tuskegee. He knows his own people well and realizes their immediate needs. He knows also their taste for dramatic realism and meets his demand in these unique circumstances. In fact, however, he remembers the art in which he colored people chiefly shine, that of vocal music, and singing was an important adjunct of the entertainment. The character of the occasion certifies to the outside world the practical aims of this truly great school of thrilling the idolistic ambitions of his race, but he is far from doing anything so shortsighted. He recognizes however, the pressing need for systematized practical education and wholesome discipline among the colored people and he is paying the way for that high standard which he has achieved as the face of the blacks, which will come to them slowly, indeed, and perhaps with disappointing delays, and even on emotional agressions toward earlier crudities, but with substantial gains such as must eventually command the recognition of the best writing and most poignant depths that describes the confidence reposed in him by both races, and his work was never worthier than any of continence and support.
THE CANAL BUILDERS
(Copyright © Frederick J Haskins)
The West Indian Negro has had an important part in the building of the Panama Canal. Notwithstanding his shortcomings, he has furnished the bank of the unskilled labor that has made the success of the undertaking constant, and he is entitled to his full med of praise. In the beginning the West Indian Negro had a bad reputation. It was said that he lacked physical strength, that he had little or no plack that he was absolutely unreliable and that the canal never could be flushed if he was exposed to supply the greater part of the labor. But he has lived down this bad reputation in large part, and although it must be admitted that he is shiftless, inconsistent, and exasperating, he has developed a good workman and has played a big part in the success of the canal project.
The government pays the West Indian laborer on the canal 90 cents a day, furnishes him with free lodgings and meals a day, makes a day for 10 cents each, a total of 30 cents a day for the actual expenses of living on the balance of 60 cents a day the West Indian Negro can earn with his opportunities at home.
But the free sanitary quarters, and the necessarily strict discipline maintained therein did not please him. He sighed for his thatched but in the "bush," for his wife and his chickens, for the freedom of the tropic world. At first the Canal Commission was in agreement to treat the authorities believed that ill-fitted workman could do as much work as a well fed one, and no "bush" dweller ever was known to be well fed. But it was demonstrated that the Negro in the sanitary quarters succeeded to homeliness and threw up his job. Then the commission reached the conclusion that a stable force would be more easily obtained by permitting the workmen to live in their own way. Permission was given and the sanitary restrictions of the commission quarters for the dollar for plague of the bush.
When the Americans first begin work here it was an accepted dictum that one Spanish or Italian could do as much work as three Negroes. But the Negro has proved this to be a tabel, and if he only could be persuaded to stick to the job six days a week, he would be efficient as the European. But nothing can induce him to work all the time.
Of course there are exceptions to this rule. Some of the Negroes are industrious, constant and thrifty. They save all they can, and then go back to Jamaica or Barbados to invest their money in a bit of land and become the Vanderbilt or Astor of their respective social environment and social environment of their native countries $100 in gold is as much wealth as is $100,000 in the United States.
There is little or no friction between the whites and blacks on the Canal Zone. This immunity from racial clashes results from two causes—the incompatible courses of the West Indian Negro and his full knowledge of the King George II. The be a subject of King George II. The king and the Negro have been roped with a full consciousness of the possession of every right of a British subject, except the purely political privileges. The trouble making politician has thus been eliminated from the equation in which he is such an important factor in the United States. But the Jamaican and the Paradisean Negroes know that they are not upon them. They are British hostages, and their appeals to his majesty's counsel suffer no prejudice because of the color of their skins.
North every West Indian Negro has his primary education, is acquainted with the rudiments of the three He and proud of his learning. He is alone there and only the writings of his father will take him alone that will take him alone his hatched that his irregular family and his chickens. There are now about 40,000 West Indian Negroes on the Canal Zone. What will become of them when the war is done so no killed thousands of Negroes were left killed and their governments were forced and they back home. It is possible that this will happen again although conditions never again can be as bad as they were then. But come what may the Negro has had his full share he has been well paid in money, and he deserves also to be remembered in the gratitude of the great American republic.
(From the New York Independent)
Would that the time might come when we should not be, and again and again to raise the question. We would have it and forever, no more discussed, like past polygamy, partridge and inoculated Abraham married his half as and so did the old Pharohs. Solomon took three hundred wives. In Egypt and Greece unwelcome infants were once exposed to the waves of the wild beasts, and even to-day among the Laplanders aged parents, a hard to reach the march, are left to die in the heat with a few days' supply of food. At the end of this month a great meeting will be held in London to discuss the wrongs of the various races and some what hasten the day when equal justice shall be done to all.
In no country in the world does this race question, morally so simple, demand an accepted solution. So far it is the greatest question by far before our people. It concerns injustice, bitter and cruel, to one-eighth of our population. We are apt to think of the problem of the Catholic Church in its character, its attitude to modern thought, its influence of dominance, the chief of religious question in our land, but the race question is itself tremendous religious question also, although our duty to it is not brought nowadays so close to the Christian conscience as it was when slavery was being overthrown.
A strange, but not extreme illustration of the enormity of the cols involved by race injustice has just now been filling columns of the St. Louis papers. In Elkindale, one of the plausible suburbs of that city a boy nineteen year old, named John R. Collins, persuaded a schoolmate Clara Chamosan to cope with him. The families in the same social station accepted the situation. When their child was six years old an anonymous letter reported to the older Collins that his son wife was a Negro. No one had suspected it. Her family had lived as white in the exclusively white section, and been socially popular. But meanwhile the young wife had suffered much from rheumatism, and her husband appears to have got tired of her. At his fathers demand he left his wife and child and petitioned for the annulment of the marriage on the ground that she had Negro blood. Her father did not deny it. He was of an old family of distinction in St. Louis, and his great-grandfather, a Spanish officer of noble lineage, had married a Cuban woman who had colored blood.
In Saturn's reign
Such mixture was not hold a stain"
The young wife's father and mother made no resistance to the repudiation of wife and child and annulment of marriage, and with sobs the wife told her husband she loves him but will not stand in the way of his advantage They submit. The Clamorgans may well think-perhaps they do think-that they are well rid of a mean-spirited son-in-law, but sympathy of the public, if we may judge from the newspaper reports, is with the Chinese who have had the cruel misfortune to contract an alliance with a Negress." The Clamorgans have been compelled to leave the home they own, and the younger children have been expelled from the white school and bled-in to go to the Negro school, notwithstanding blue eyes and light hair
Now, as we understand it, by the Missouri law marriage is forbidden between a white person and one with more than one-eighth Negro blood. This girl had not more than one thirty-second of Negro blood, so that the Missouri law would not hold the marriage invalid, although the school laws exclude from white schools any Negro admixture. In Virginia, we believe, even an octoctoron is legally not a Negro. The Clamorgangs had always attended white schools, graduating from the high school.
This is a case of criminal white race hatred. We give it as illustrative of the extent to which the cell carrier those debased by it. It separates a white husband from his white wife brutally disowns and discards his babe, expels a white family from their home and the children from the privileges of their education, and all because one hundred and twenty five years ago an imperial stain of African blood entered into their homes. A heartless act of all the general public hates the cruelty and puts no blame on the innocent boy and his hard-backed father.

San Francisco Cal. June 25—Pas-
tor Russell addressed large audiences twice today at the Golden Gate. He addressed a con-
vocation of the "International Bible Students Association" in session here. He has been making a sort of con-
tinue tour including Indianapolis, IA, St. Louis, Kansas City, Pueblo Cal.
orado City, Denver Salt Lake City, Los Angeles, Pasadena and Santa Cruz. Like these cities local branches of the I.E.S. are invited him and made arrangements for public ad-
dresses. A trainload of Kobe Stu-
dents are with him about one hundred and fifty in all.
Meetings are to be held r turning at Sacramento Portland Tacoma Seattle Vancouver Calgary Winnipespeg Buffalo and Toronto The show is a novel and a believe lent out, for surely what he has undertaken is off by carrying out is not a large man's burden
Th. Earthly Zionism
Speaking from the text, The Law shall go forth from Mt. Zion and the Word of the Lord from Jerusalem (Isaiah 1:1). Pastor Kessel described that Christ had madly misappropriated to themselves many promises of the Scriptures which are not wholly Jesus. Christian greed and thieves have surmised that, through the question of Jesus, all Jews doing unselfeel of Jesus were forced to an eternity of torture because of that unselfeel in the Only Name.
A more detailed study of the Rible
be declared to sowing Bible Students
the error of its position. Jews who
do not omit it as their Savior and
who do not become followers in
His steps in the narrow way will in
deed fail to marry a place with
Jesus in it. Dome of glory. They will
fall to be joint helpers with
Him in His famous Messianic King-
dom. They will fail to become members
of the final Seal of Abraham
respecting them in Paul said. If we
be Christians we are Abraham's
seed and be bound to the promise
(Galatians 5:20)
The bsaveply Zionism
The Zion of the past children
centuries be born of the hereby
kind. It is being selling and aspiring
to be Zion of the children and an
utility to have the hearing ear"
the heavenly thing to point her belief
with Messiah. This glorious privilege
is about to be because the full num
her product of the Lord will soon
have been quoted. Meantime, the
Pastor and others of God's consecrated
people should be Zionists in the high
sense of the word and, laying aside
every weight and every besetting sin,
each should have to make his "calling
and election sure to a place in the
Heavenly Zion, the Kingdom of Meas
It will be from this Mt. Zion, the spiritual king of Mossiah, that the Law will go forth during the thousand years of the Messianic reign; the great Judge and Law giver of the world will be the glorious Redeemer, and His associates in His various offices of Prophet King Judge and Mediator will be the faithful Zionists of the present time who follow in the steps of the Redeemer delighting to lay down their lives for the Truth's sake and for the brother's sake, in cooperation with the great Captain of their giver through the merit of His immanuel strengthness.

·AID FOR LANE
General Board of Education Makes Gift to Negro College, Which Will Make Every Effort to Comply With Conditions.
Special to The New York Agn
Jackson, Tenn, June 27-At the close of the commencement exercises of Lane College, President J. F. Lane announced a conditional gift of $7,000 to Lane College by the General Education Board of New York. It was not known then what the exact conditions upon which this money was given were, since that time the president has been informed. This donation is by far the largest one ever made to the college outside the C M E Church, and comes large through the earnest efforts made by the president, ably supplemented by that of Dr J W. Gilbert, of Augusta, Ga
Regarding this matter, President Lane says, "Lane College greatly needs another boys hall. The present dormitory for the boys accommodates less than one-half of the young men, and it is in behalf of this building that the gift from the General Education Board is made. To construct a hall in keeping with the other splendid buildings on the grounds, and one having a capacity to accommodate the school, will cost just $20,000. Toward raising this amount the General Education Board contributes $7,000, leaving $13,000 to be raised by the trustees and friends of the college. This condition will be met promptly and the building will go up."
The college has just closed a most successful season and the trustees and friends are unhappy over the prospects for a new hall on the grounds, which has become in recent years a real necessity.
WESTERN'S COMMENCEMENT.
Well Known Kansas College. Under H. T. Kealing, Closes a Happy and Successful Year—Sister of Theodore Shonts Speaks.
Regular Correspondence of The Ace
Quindain, Kansas, June 21—The 15th annual commencement expoises on Monday, Wednesday, May 11, and closed June 8, were the most successful in the history of the institution.
The band concert under the direction of John Sellers was a success and the band deserves much credit for the grand gram that Sellers is a good leader On Thursday evening Miss Eva K. Jones, of Denver, Colo., gave her graduating retrait which was an elaborate affair. She was able assisted by Miss Carne Joseph, of Denver, Mrs S. E. Frederick Pairfax, of Kansas City, Mo.
The annual address to the combined literary and religious organizations by Rev Jno. A Gregg, of St Joseph, Mo, was full of practical advice and gave ample food for thought along both sides. The annual address was preached by President Kealing. It was indeed a scriptural gem and pronounced by all to have been the most finished and effective discourse ever delivered before a graduating class in this section.
A new feature of the school work undertaken by Kealing's administration was the industrial demonstrations by the various classes from the trade departments. The exhibits in the trades hall were above the average and were very unique in display. The class night exercises were well rendered, as was the play, "A Doctor in Spite of Himself." The annual oratorical competition was won by a period of oratorical flights by Earl Hatcher of Johns Mo.
The commencement program in the foreground was as usual far above the ordinary. The address by Leight-Gov R J Hopkins was a masterpiece. It contained not only advice, but practical and sound reasoning. Among other things he said, "You will note that I make honesty one of the first things I teach the students in the apprenticeship of life. Not only will honesty reap its reward but there is nothing that will satisfy one's conscience so much as to be absolutely honest in all his dealings with his fellow men. Another element to which I especially direct your attention and one that will have as much to do in your course of life as any other is that of right thinking, thought is added to what is necessary of progress. Every law that is in upon the statute books was one day a thought in some man's brain. No great reform was ever inaugurated except that some thinker blazed the way. There was never a time in the history of the world when so much depended upon what each individual thinks as today." Bishop Parks in presenting the diplomas and certificates of the college and women who had completed the normal and various trades, have very encouraging words.
President Kealing presented the prizes and medals to the successful winners. At 3 o'clock the large and spacious tent was crowded. Fully 2,500 people thronged the grounds to hear the tribals paid by eminent presidents and dignitaries. The ceremony was not worthy and truly marked an epoch in the history of the Negro race. Upon the platform at Miss Eva P. Shonz, of New York, a slater of Theodore P. Shonz, the railroad magnate, and herself one of the richest of American women who came from the East in her brother's private car to pay a tribute to the hero of Harper'serry, Ruth Gee, P. St. John Kane, Leontie Gee, Hopkins, Dr J H Jones, ex-president of Wilberforce University, and others of national reputation who made remarks in honor of the hero.
Miss Shonitz talked at length on the history and significance of the American flag and paid a glowing tribute to John Brown. "I love Kanaan and her people," she said with Kanaan. "I love her spirit, the spirit which dominated old John Brown. I love her because she starts things. It was Kanaan, more than any other community that actually started the movement which resulted in the abolition of slavery, and it is Kanaan, she can get along without strong drink even for mechanical, medicinal or scientific purposes. It is worth coming across half the continent to just be in Kanaan and meet her people." Dr. Jones in an eloquent address cited the early history of Kanaan her family with the slave trade and efforts of John Brown to make Kanaan free.
The remarks by ex Gov St. John, the eighth governor of Kansas, were much appreciated. He has always been a loyal friend to the Negro, as was hown in the early exodus of the Indians when he hid the error, after being appealed to by white people, refused to do any act which would discriminate between them and any other law-abiding citizens, who might seek to better their conditions
by coming to free Kansas. He was also indicted by the grand jury for feeding and caring for Negro children. At the proper time, the six little children had died in the care of the imposing figure of John Brown carved from Italian marble by the Italian sculptor Chignone at a cost of $2,000, which was collected throughout the country from colored people only. The movement was started by late Dr. Grant and carried out by his successor, Bishop H. R. Purks, of Chicago. Other visitors of note who were present were Mrs. Shontz, mother of Miss Shontz, Mrs. W. R. Stubba, Miss Lenora Stubbs and other guests from John Hurst of Washington and Dr. P. Jesse Peck of Los Angeles, Cal.
PEABODY GRADUATES
Noted High School at Peterburg Holds Graduating Exercises at Which Maj. R. R. Moten Delivers Annual Address and Seventeen Graduate.
Regular Correspondence of The Agr.
Peterburg, Va., June 14—The thirty-ninth commencement exercises of the Peabody High School, held at the Academy of Music Tuesday night of last week, was a brilliant affair. On the rostrum were seated leading clergymen members of the school board, distinguished visitors and teachers. The exercises opened with chorus, "Our Flug" The Rev. Mr. Baldin, pastor of Oak Street Methodist Church, offered prayer. In the essays, orations and addresses by the graduates, painstaking and earnest effort is shown where the character of the exercises reflected great credit upon the authorities of the school
Rev E. E. Miller, rotor of St. Stephens Church delivered distinctions, after which J. R. Smith, president of the school board delivered diplomas. Superintendent Jones in a speech presenting a modal for excellence to Charles C. Wwatt, asked the colored people why it is that out of 250 girls and 10 girls in 11 girls would graduate" and that this is a serious question and should encourage the earnest attention of every colored parent in Petersburg.
Maj. Robt R. Motten commandant at Hamilton Institute, the chief speaker of the occasion spoke with his customary force. He dwell upon the advantages of the Negro in American, and commenting on the high average required to graduate from Peabody School, said he hoped that life would present the same strength to the grading of slavery, he was of the opinion antes as their examinations. Speak that the Negro got more out of slavery than the white man, and that his end was in the hands of a God's own plan even as was freedom. He did not desire his audience to understand him as apologizing for or eloquizing slavery. But the picture which rheated his gaze was of the white man nearing the end of his road and the Negro just beginning.

LEAGUE NOTES.
12th Annual Session to be Held at
Rock, Ark., August 16, 17, 18,
1911.
For the meetings of the National Educational Association to be held in San Francisco in July, information has been furnished as to how arrange should be made for Pullman or Tourist car parties. This same information is of interest and value to the members of the National Negro Business League. Experience has shown that attendance at meetings may be largely increased by organizing Pullman or Tourist Car parties or special train. Already Timbermen are participating in Pullman car parties for the National Negro Business League meeting to be held at Little Rock, Arkansas, August 16, 17, and 18, are being organized throughout the country. All that is needed is for some one to take the initiative. The following suggestions are offered for the consideration of local and Negro Business Leagues and others interested.
1 Carefully canvass the matter in your own city or state. Formulate your plan of action, then select active workers in each important center where you will make the special Pullman or Tourist car party a personally conducted affair.
2 Select the most attractive route for the going trip to Little Rock to arrange interest among the delegates. Start early enough to permit stopovers and to allow the one in charge of the party should make a careful study of points of interest, etc., that he may in his correspondence, advertising and on the trip speak with authority.
3 Get the active co-operation of all the mileposts and誓约 of the initial party in your city. When you have decided upon the route you favor write (or better be personally) the General Passenger Agent of that particular railway. Tell him you will undertake the work of securing a special car party to the Little Rock meet, and you have positive assurance of his active co-operation on the following lines.
(a) The railroad to furnish full information to all prospective members of the parties, giving data covering itinerary and points of interest en route to Tulsa.
(b) The railroad to circulate this information and itinerary with your cooperation among the members of your Local or State League.
(c) The railroad to advertise the special Pullman or Tourist Car party in the Negro newspapers of the state.
(d) The railroad to send instructions to its agents throughout your state to carry out the active canvas for mem-

BEYOND THE GRAVE
Goes the Arrows of Prejudice of Those Who Are Rich in All Things Save That Which Alone Can Make Them Free.
Hartford, Conn., June 21.—Beyond the grave the arrow from the bow of prejudice dares to dart. The body of Chester Stanton, buried a few days ago in Cedar Hill Cemetery, has started a war here among the wealthy, the wealthy in gold and stocks. At a conference of some of the richest men in this city and representatives of the oldest families in this section to-night it was determined to bring such pressure to bear on the cemetery authorities that they will be forced to remove Stanton's body from Cedar Hill Cemetery, where for many years the wealthy and famous of Hartford have been buried.
The leaders at the cemetery indignation meeting were Charles Gross, trustee of Col. Cadwell's Colt will; Chas. E. Chase, son and executor of Charles L. Chase, president of the Hartford Fire Insurance Company, and George B. Batterson, son of James G. Batterson, founder of the Travellers' Insurance Company. The cemetery is one of the beautiful show spots of the city, and looming most conspicuously near the centre is the 'fifty shaft which proclaims the mansoleum of Col. Cadwell Colt, who was well known in New York at the time of his death, when he was president of the company that manufactures the Colt revolver.
When Abraham Lincoln was assassinated and Secretary of War Stanton was shot by the Booth gang, Lincoln's Secretary of the Navy, Gideon Welles, who was also a marked man on the assassins' list, escaped through the bravery and strategy of his personal servant and guard, Chester Stanton. He died at an advanced age in this city last week and was buried in the Welles family lot at Cedar Hill last Saturday with all the honors the Welles family could pay the beloved old servant.
For a long time it has been known that on his death bed Secretary Welles made a dying request that old Stanton be well cared for, and that he be buried beside his master in the family lot.
The wealthy families who have relatives buried at Cedar Hill now declare that if the ultimatum to be given the cemetery authorities to morrow is un

availing they will use concerted pressure in another way and will begin the disinterment of about two hundred bodies.
Of course this means removing the ponderous headstones and mausoleums and general devastation and despoiling of the beautiful premises.
One of the officers of the cemetery association said to-night that the superintendent was authorized to use his discretion in selling plots in order to preserve the exclusiveness of the sections, but that after the land had been once purchased, the Welles family or any other had a perfect legal and moral right to do as they pleased with their ground.

MUSIC AND THE STAGE

THE FROGS' ANNUAL FROLIC
MONDAY evening when sweet music flowed into every nook and corner of Manhattan Casino, and when the spirit of hilarity and mirth took complete possession of all who came within the portals of the huge structure, two visitors—one from Alabama and the other from Mississippi—sat in a box attentively gazing in wonderment at the small army of merry dancers below. An acquaintance chanced to pass by and inquired of the strangers, whose eyes were working over time, why they were not dancing, to which query the gentleman from Mississippi replied "I consider it a great treat to be able to sit here and watch several thousand people dancing at one time—a sight I have never beheld before. I can dance when I return to Mississippi, but I don't expect to see such a spectacle again unless I return to New York."
The sentiment expressed by the M
An Active Member of the Juvenile Band
sissippi visitor represented the views of hundreds of strangers who attended the fourth annual frolic of The Frogs. Throughout the evening many took delight in sitting and watching the merrymakers dance to their hearts' content. It is said that the frolic of The Frogs is one occasion when but few tight-fitting shoes and slippers are pressed into service, as the people, knowing it to be the largest dance of the summer season, turn out to dance, and they say it is very inconvenient, as well as painful, to spiel for hours in shoes which compel you to give them more attention than you do the harmony of sweet sound furnished by the hands.
This year's frolic was no different from the affairs given by the widely known club on previous years. Space was at a premium on the dance floor, there was quality and quantity to the dance music provided, for when Walter F. Craig's select orchestra stopped Hallie L. Anderson's augmented band started. The casino was tastefully decorated for the occasion, the colors of The Frogs—gold and green being con-

spirituous everywhere. The late style in women's wearing apparel were extravagantly shown and the men produced some sartorial effects that atracted more than prancing effect on And the automobiles' One was reminded of a big night at the State theatre Opera House during the winter month.
Out in the German Garden Jenkun's Juvenile Band of twenty youngsters gave a band concert for the tourists who preferred to be in the opera and in the Swiss Garden village bill was given by sweet music and agile drummers. Shortly before clock "The Lugs" Sharon Dip was played by the comedian. Jenkins under the direction of Lrug J Rasmus in Johnson the conductor of the opera.
The condition of the weather last Monday was not at all inspiring. As usual, "Frog weather prevailed. The day was one which was described by the weather forecaster as "cloudy and threatening rain," but the past has shown that the people care naught for the none too obliging elements when The Frogs give their annual frolic. Although it rained Monday morning, and the sun and the o'er-hanging clouds
seemed to have entered into a conspiracy against The Frogs throughout the day and evening, hundreds and hundreds of people made Manhattan Casino their objective point just the same. It is said that in Germany and Switzerland the frogs toretell rain, that a curious barometer is used in these countries consisting of a pan of water with a frog and a little stepladder in it. When the frog comes out of the water and sits on the steps it is said to infallibly indicate rain. As the frogs are considered reliable weather prognosticators in Germany and Switzerland, so are The Frogs, incorporated regarded as trustworthy amusement

prophets in America, and can always be relied upon to forecast what is going to be the largest dance of the summer season in this country. And as the gentleman from Mississippi said to his friend last Monday evening, New York is the only city where several thousand dancers can be seen enjoying themselves at one time, and the occasion when such a sight can be witnessed is at the annual troble of the Frogs.

Conservatory Has Commencement
(12 Joseph H. Douglas)
A representative audience of Washington's best musical and literary tastes comfortably filled Howard Theatrical Friday evening June 16, to witness the second annual commemoration of the Washington conservatory of Music and School of Expression. After invocation by the Rev J. Milton Walden the program opened with a splendid interpretation of Ruffs Le Galop Caprice by Miss Bessie Patterton. The School of Expression was admirably represented by Mrs Emma Lee, Williams whose full conception of the Confessional by W. W. Story thrilled the audience. It was an excellent bit reading and dramatic work reflecting grazing ditto upon the training in that department in the piano and strings) by Gobard was not renewed with plosing effect by Moss Fortune, Jones and Miss Tilda Foering which was followed by Reethoven's difficult Concerto for four hands and executed with artistic finish by Miss Ruth Weatherless and Miss Celestine Lott
The Philadelphia Concert Orchestra came next on the scene with F. Gilbert Anderson, director. Although with about half of their membership present the visitors gave with authority and precision Verdi's Alba and Loves' Menu by Tyers. The audience was captured at once and with repeated calls and encore followed. The excellent work of this organization showing should possibilities of future development of genuine talent should encourage and inspire the hearty support from our race in a like effort in every city in the country, where our people are well represented.
S. Cobridge Taylor's Leap was sung with case and grace by Mr. Westmoreland of Atlanta who was followed by the same authors' trio for with violoncello and piano Messrs. Fortune Jeter and Miss Angela Bryson gave a pleasing exhibition of ensemble playing.
The talented Miss Ruth Grimshaw made her appearance in Leoschetzky's "Andante Finale" (left hand alone) showing at intervals when composed to tune and a mastery of the technical difficulties in this remarked composition.
Ralston's concert, top 50, which
presents the first of the evening was
performed by Miss Pessy W Patter

institute and assisted by Mossers Delia
W Warton L Letter of White and H
Horton. Mrs Harrett will be Marshall
directed with her help with her grave
and will get the best possible results from the difficult earth

spirit of this concert with inspiration
expression and the temperament of a
true artist. Her complete history of
every movement was astonishing
keeping her pure tone and brilliant
technique at all times will be an
orchestra. This remarkable inter-
tation from memoirs to a revelation
citing litilim to the evening's
interment, reflecting high credit
upon Mrs Harrett's Mossars
president and founder of the school
and her associates.
The sacrifices and esteem efforts of Mrs. Marshall her executive abilities together with a splendid museliability as instructor and director is in the main responsibility for the success thus far accomplished in a conservatory of music for our race.
Presentation of scholarships were presented by Mrs. Percy Foster of the Foster Piano Company, who in a short address paid a glowing tribute to the graduates' school and Mrs. Marshall. Presentation of diplomas in artillery to our course and school of expression was made by Hlan Arab bald D trunk, who in his prepared and scholarly manner delighted the dancers with words of encouragement and faith in a race of enamourment and faith in a race of excitement in the near future to make its place in the front rank in every achievement known to human history.

More Talk of Colored Baseball Leagues.
A is the result of the successful series played last week at St Louis between the St Louis tians and the Chicago team, the talk of forming colored league leagues which plan was discussed in early spring by several colored baseball promoters. It has been revived. It would not be surprising it such a baseball organization made its fledgling how to the fans in 1912.
The figures giving the attendance at the three games played are interesting and formidable, who have been agitating the organization of a colored baseball league in business for years. They are now enthusiastically counting the number to take up the artifice they have been making all along that a colored baseball league would pay also that the fans would pay the level of support.
The St. Louisaints opened their series of the Kansas with the Chicago Cubs on their home ground Wednesday, June 11. The attendance at the first game was 1,000 on the home field at the Kansas in the league between the St. Louis and the St. Louis Cubs. All Cubs players were present on Thursday, June 11, who saw the two teams face off and the St. Louisaints to win. In addition, Longer than all of the World Series, Park St. Louis where the Cubs are holding their fourth game, the rival team saw the first between the colored teams with a little larger than the day before.

Colored Fans Loyal

Some have contended that while New York and Chicago, judging from the past cost support a colored team but express doubt as to whether deserves of the national game in St. Louis the Louisiana etc. would turn out an excellent numbers to insure the players a nice check when pay is made around
Those who favor the colored baseball league that Cincinnati, Louis and other cities consider as good a showing as St. thorpemore it is claimed they have but one big league St. Louis has two a year it is claimed would are the respective colored to larger white patronage.

From Central High School the only representative was Miss Sarah May Talbert. Miss Talbert has won several prizes during her school life, the last being a prize offered by the high school calendar for the best short story. Miss Talbert's story, Polly's Green Talbert, is the only prize. Miss Talbert is the only daughter of William A. H. Talbert of the City Treasurer's office, and Mrs. Mary H. Talbert an Oberlin College woman and well known throughout the country as a club woman. Mrs. Army Thomas entertained Tuesday, June 16, honor of these two young graduates. Muster Park High School and Technical High had no representatives. From the grammar schools Mr J Anderson, eldest son of Mack Anderson, Miss Edna Chuitt, eldest daughter of Mr Arthur Capit, Miss Steeves, daughter of Joan Fers, Miss Ethel Ether, daughter of Mrs Ella Rose, made up our contribution to this year graduating classes.
The only members of the race in the high schools now are attending Central. It is to be hoped that our young boys and girls will not quit school but will strive for the highest and best in the concert given by the boys' brass band at St Luke's A M E Zion Church, under the direction of Milton Hardy, was a great success. Mr Hardy is the founder and originator of this organization, and he states that no other organization has anything to do with it, and wishes the public to know that statements being published that it is a part of another organization are misleading. Although held on Thursday when other entertainers were given, the house was packed. On Thursday the entertainment given under the auspices of the Colored Social Centre in the Women's Union Hall was poorly attended. The program as given out was not produced in full. Ms James L. Branham and Reginald M. L. Branham at the Talbert cottage for the summer.

The presents were man) and costly. After a short wedding journey) they will re-live the day. Rev J. E. Nash has returned from Philadelphia, where he has been for the past week attending the meetings of the Great Baptist Alliance. Rev Nash gave a very interesting account of the meetings at the Christian Culture Congress. Mr. Jerry Martin, one of Buffalo's old and highly esteemed citizens, died at the Forest Avenue Hospital Sunday. Mr. Martin has been sick for several months. He leaves a wife, Miss Belle Howard, three children Mrs. Pearl Howard, Mr. William Martin and Mr. Louis Martin. Allan grunt Sinnott is again under the doctors care but we hope for a speedy recovery.
Mr. and Mrs. Julius Tubes of Masten street gave a dinner Sunday in honor of Mrs. Tubes' sister, Miss Laura Hines of Baltimore. Covers were laid for six. The table was decorated with American roses and summer flowers. Those present included the Misses Helen Thompson and Laura Hines Messes. Slnott and Jinger and Mr. and Mrs. Julius Tubes.
Mr. and Mrs. Gio Chase are entertaining a house party this week. An automobile ride and trip to the Falls are a part of the arrangements.
It is with regret that we announce the passing of the Christian Culture Congress for the summer season as we feel the institution for spiritual and intellectual uplift in the hot summertime, and the good wholesome lessons thereby by the very able president and race champion, Mrs. Wm. H. Talbert, will long be remembered by those who frequent the Congress. If you want to see Buffalo at its best reflectually and morally, attend the Congress for it is here the most respected Buffaloans congregate and it is the only movement of its kind in the city.

CINCINNATI NEGROES PROTEST
The Dunbar Club. Through Its Officers. Addresses a Note to the Park Commissioners Against Threatened Discrimination.
Special to THE NEW YORK ACR
Cincinnati, O. June 21 -There will be no discrimination in public places in this city if the leading men in the town can prevent it. The Dumbar Club, an organization composed of the representative men of the city, is constantly on guard, and that means that it is busy every day, for Cincinnati is no paradise.
It has been rumored that the white and colored children are to be separated in the public parks of this city. The following letter was sent to the commission and is said to have arrested any such action as was contemplated.
Hon. Board of Park Commissioners, City, Hall, City Gentlemen
We view with a considerable degree of alarm the rumor that the Park Commissioners are either considering or tacitly approving a separation of Negroes and whites in Sinton City.
Left alone the children who frequent grounds will work on their own problem with less friction among themselves than will be generated among the citizens of voting age of both races should such segregation receive official approval.
We protest against an discrimination anywhere in our public officials whose duty it is to give respect and equal opportunity to all its citizens regardless of color.
The letter was signed by the emer-
gency committee of the club. Joe
