DEMOCRATS PUT OUT 33 NEGROES
Plea of Bishop Waiters and Others for Patronage Ignored
Only Appointment Democrats at Washington Made During the Last Session of Congress
By Democrat Getting Control of Lower House Negroes Love Jobs With Salaries Amounting $27,660.
Special to THE NEW YORK AGEN:
Washington, Oct. 31.—When the Democrats secured control of the House of Representatives and proceeded to organize it last winter, Bishop Walters, "Jim" Ross, and a few other lesser Negro Democrats came to Washington and conferred with the Democratic congressional leaders in an effort to induce them to appoint one or more Negro Democrats to a representative position in the House, preferably doorkeeper. They impressed the Democratic leaders with the work they, the Negro Democrats, had done in the last presidential campaign, and assured them of the flocking to that party of thousands of Negro voters at the next presidential election.
The answer of the Democrats to Bishop Walters, et al., plea for appointments was the appointment or one lone Negro to a messenger at $1,000, and the dismissal of thirty-three Negro employees and the reduction of one from $1,400 to $1,000. These thirty-three dismissals and the one reduction aggregate a loss in places held by Negroes in the House of thirty-three and aggregate a loss in salaries of $28,660 per annum.
These dismissals, this wholesale discharge of Negro employees by the Democrats of the lower branch of Congress is an indication of what the Negroes may expect should the Democrats succeed in getting control of the Senate and the Presidency. In the face of these dismissals of Negroes, and the assignment of their places to white Southerners it is hard for sane Negroes to understand what Democrats can accomplish forth to justify their espousal and support of white Democrats for ejection to office.
One of the places, held by a Negro was that of stenographer in the Speaker's office, paying $2,000 per annum, the place having been held by Jos. Johnson, stenographer, for a number of years. The wholesale dismissal of Negro employees in the House by the appointment of one Negro Democrat constitutes little encouragement to Negroes to vote the Democratic ticket this fall, or next fall. With the places formerly held by Negroes under a Republican House aggregating $28,660, and the appointment of one Negro Democrat at $1,000, it requires but a limited knowledge or subtraction to figure out a net loss of $27,660 in salaries to Negroes.
MARYLAND REPUBLICANS BUSY
Digges Disfranchissement Measure
can Committee Doing Good Work.
Special to The New York Agm
Baltimore, Md., Nov. 1.—The closing of the campaign is marked with an activity that has not characterized a political fight since 1895, when the late Lloyd Lowndes was elected Governor of Maryland. In that campaign the issue was Arthur Pue Gorman, father of the present Democratic candidate for Governor. All of the city papers, except the old Herald, were against the ring, and the Democrat ring was defeated by a large majority in the recent campaign the Baltimore Sun supporting the candidacy of Gorman, but is giving the Democratic city candidates hard knocks. All of the other city papers are supporting the Republican gubernatorial candidate, Phillips Lee Goldsborough, and a large number of influential Democrats will support Mr. Goldsborough and the other Republican candidates.
The Auxiliary Republican Committee of which Dr. Ernest Lyon is chairman, has been holding meetings nightly, and much enthusiasm has been aroused among the colored voters. The defeat of the Digges disfranchising amendment seems probable, as well as the election of Bobborough, the governor of the Republican candidates. The work of the Auxiliary Committee has been generally commended, and it is sate to say that colored men of influence will be more highly regarded in future campaigns. A big rally against the

Digges bill, and in the interest of the Republican candidates will be held at John Wesley M. E. Church Thursday night. The speakers will include Collector of Customs W. F. Stone, Republican State Chairman John B. Hanna, Dr. Lyon and Councilman Cummings. The women of the city are also working hard against the amendment.
BOYCOTT OF WHITE CHAUFFEURS
Book to Have a Monopoly in Driving Automobiles by Making it Difficult for Colored Men to Secure Accommodations at the Various Garages.
Frequent charges that the white chauffeurs have been waging a systematic boycott against colored chauffeurs in New York City in order to enjoy a monopoly of the work of driving motor vehicles have been investigated by THE Age and found to be true.
The whites have organized a union and have sought by intimidation and tinkering with the machinery of cars to force owners of automobiles to either discharge their colored chauffeurs or to take their cars out of garages where this anti-Negro sentiment prevails. They even allege that colored chauffeurs work for less money, and do household tasks as well.
Many southern white men bring their automobiles and colored chauffeurs to New York while on a visit, and they have been surprised to find such hostility.
To meet this condition four colored men have opened garages, and they have both colored and white chauffeurs on their list of patrons. These whites are not of the type of those making the boycott. A number of prominent white men who own and run their own machines also keep their automobiles in these four places.
All their owners, who has trained several hundred men of the race as chauffeurs, was the first to open a garage in order to meet these prejudiced condition. He is located at 57 West 50th street, and has accommodations for over fifty cars.
"This boycott," said Mr. Roberts to a representative of THE AGE, "has been growing for the past four years. The garages run by us not only accommodate cars run by colored men, but whites, too. It is merely case of the whites trying to force all colored men out of this class of employment.
"As a class, I deny that colored chauffeurs work for less than the whites. There are nearly 200 colored chauffeurs, who are paid wages averaging from $80 to $125 a month.
J. V. Widethsp, an instructor for the Cosmopolitan Automobile College, which is owned by B. C. Thomas, said that the whites made it unpleasant, told of instances where cars taken in good condition to a white garage, had been tampered with over night, causing owners and colored chauffeurs much trouble. He also admitted that colored chauffeurs met with much difficulty securing places to store their cars in white garages.
PRESBYTERIAN COUNCIL MEETS,
Special to THE NEW York ADP
Philadelphia, Pa., November 1.—The work of the Presbyterian Church among the colored people, as well as suggestions for the extension of the same were discussed at the eighteenth annual session of the Afro-American Presbyterian Council, which came to an end at Beren Presbyterian Church last Sunday night.

STUDENT KILLED AT ALCORN.
Special to The New York Age:
Jackson, Miss., Oct. 30—Following the killing of a student by the president's secretary at Rodney, a state institution for Negroes. The town is alarmed and half the Negro youths at the college are going armed. The suggestion has been made that the Governor send troops, but there has been intimation of such action.
Joe Alexander was the student slain and John Reddick is held for the murder. The tragedy took place on the steps of the college chapel. A series of revival meetings has been conducted at the chapel and these led to investigations of alleged practices in which several students were implicated.
At a meeting Monday afternoon a number of students and instructors made short talks that led to personalities and a mob of students started for the doors. It is said that personal remarks passed between Alexander and Reddick and that Instructor Harrison Jones was attacked. The mlee became general and Reddick is said to have drawn a pistol and fired several shots at Alexander. The young man fell dying, but begged the other students to avenge his death.

FRANCE TO MAINTAIN
BLACK MILITARY RESERVE
Francis Population Standily Decreasing—Writer Sae's Black Man Is Vulnerable to Soldier—Germany Alarmed.
Constant talk of a probable conflict between France and Germany, and the revelation that France's population in late years has dwindled to such an alarming extent that in the event of war the French would be compelled to put out an inferior army and navy to battle with the enemy, has caused the French Government to seriously consider recruiting 1,000,000 black men from the French cotontes. While the French are becoming enthused over the plan of France maintaining black military reserves, the other foreign powers do not take kindly to the idea of having to combat with Negroes, knowing full well their value as warriors. Among those who believe that France only oppose on the battlefield in the future will be by recruiting from the French African colonies is Francis Gribble, a writer of reputation, who says:
"The population of that part of the French African colonies in which recruiting would be possible is estimated at 10,000,000; and there is reason to believe that the estimate is considerably under the truth. It is a population of fighting men—men who would much rather fight for their living than work for it. There would be no need to institute a system of universal service in order to compel them to come in. They would all gladly come in of their own accord, as volunteers, and the number of them who are able-bodied and of a fighting age is computed at about one million. The million men, he it observed, who could be recruited and trained, and kept ready for use in a European war—a reserve of men, that is to say, practically inexhaustible, and so situated that, as long as France, or her allies, kept the command of the sea, no enemy could possibly get at it and destroy it. A million men, too, whose fighting value is not to be denied.
Tefta of Deeds of Black Soldiers.
"It has sometimes been assumed that, because handfuls of white men have often scattered hordes of black men, therefore the black man would be of no use in a white man's war; but that is a mistake. Inferior equipment and lack of organization easily account for these sensational defeats. The black man has often proved that, if he is armed like the white man, and has white men to lead him, he is quite capable of standing up to white troops. He did so in the American War of Secession, and in the American War with Spain, when the heights of San Juan were stormed by a black regiment. Napoleon himself was black in European warfare—black regiment particularly distinguished itself at the siege of Gaeta, and afterward captured Fra Diavolo under the guidance of Victor Hugo's father. Black troops helped to storm the Malakoff, and were employed at Magneta, and in Mexico. At least 3,000 of them served through the Franco-German War. Their bayonet charge at Froeschwiller was one of the most brilliant feats recorded in the history of the war; for they actually preserved their moral after the regiment had lost 92 per cent. of its officers and 85 per cent. of its men. They may take it, therefore, that there is nothing new or chimerical—nothing to be described as a counter of despair in the French proposal to employ black troops against Germany.
"This is the black peril for Germany and for no other power; and it is much more real than that yellow peril against which the Kaiser nobly warned the Western world.
"Presumably, too, it is a peril to which Germany is not altogether blind, and one not without its bearings on the course of the critical negotiations proceeding, at the moment of writing, with reference to the rights of the two countries in Morocco. The German demand for emigration is in effect a demand for the surrender of a portion of the Black Reservoir. That is one of the reasons why Germany is so eager, and so firm; that is also one of the reasons why France shows herself so obstinately reluctant to cede anything."
MONEY FOR COLORED SCHOOLS.
At a meeting of the Board of Trustees of the John D. Rockefeller Fund for Education (the General Education Board), held in the offices of the board, 17 Battery place, Friday, October 27, the report showed that the board has contributed between $600,000 and $700,000 to forty-one schools for Negroes. These contributions have been limited to the higher schools which train teachers for the public schools.
The following trustees were present: Frederick T. Gates, Robert C. Ogden, Walter H. Page, George Foster Pea-

SUCCESSFUL NEGRO FAIR
Many Primes Awarded at the Second Annual Fair of the Utica Normal and Industrial Institute—A Fine Lot of Exhibits.
Utica, Miss., October 30.—The second annual Negro fair, held under the auspices of the Utica Normal and Industrial Institute, came to a close here last Friday, the exercises on the last day being attended by about 2,000 persons, including farmers from the surrounding neighborhood. Visitors from various points in Hinds and Copiah counties and the entire student body of the institution.
Competitive games, races and a barbecue furnished the entertainment and much interest was manifested in the exhibits. Walter S. Buchanan, president of the Agricultural and Mechanical College for Negroes, located at Normal, Ala., made the principal address. He was introduced by Principal W. H. Holtzlaw, who in his introduction took occasion to give some frank advice to the farmers present with reference to saving money.
Prof. Buchanan urged his hearers to build good schools in the remote rural districts where Negroes live in large numbers and have an opportunity to plant themselves firmly in the soil, contending that if the Negro, through his own efforts, does not supplement public school funds and provide better schools for Negro children will have access to districts, she shall eventually lose our holdouts in the soil and let slip away from us forever, the opportunity to gain a firm and lasting foothold upon the agricultural resources of the South.
A Variety of Exhibits.
An unusually good line of exhibits was placed by the farmers, their wives and the students from the industrial divisions of the school. The exhibit stands were made out of the 1,200 bales of hay made and baled on the institute farm and included everything practically from farm machinery used on the farm to the most common-place handicraft.
The following prizes were given out: Cotton, bale and stalk, first prize, Ples McCadney; honorable mention, R. D. Morrison; turnips, potatoes, peas, corn, first prize, Utica Normal and Industrial Institute; best peanuts, first prize, Mrs. Newell; rice, first prize, Dallas Page; honorable mention, Harrison Flanders; Louisiana sugar cane, first prize; William Walker; honorable mention, R. D. Morrison.
During the past year a number of improvements have been made at the Utica Institute that greatly increase its facilities. Mississippi Hall, a three story dormitory for girls, has been completed, the first floor being used for a kitchen and dining hall. The water works system has been completed and an electric lighting plant put in operation. Altogether the school property is worth about $100,000.
BIG FAIR AT RALEIGH.
Special to THE NEW YORK ADR
Raleigh, N. C., Oct. 30—Secretary Hamlin of the North Carolina Negro State Fair says that the attendance this year was the largest in the history of the association, which has been holding these annual State fairs for the past 35 years. The weather was splendid and there was a large number of Negroes from all parts of the State for the fair. There was a big concert, for which the Negroes were granted the use of Raleigh's great new auditorium. The attendance was estimated at 2,500. The crowd at the fair the biggest day (Thursday) was 10,000. Announcement is made that Love Brothers, successful Negro druggists, of this city, will head a big stock company of Negroes to erect a $15,000 Negro hotel, to be erected on the corner of Davis and Blount streets. Raleigh has no Negro hotel at all now.
ANNA MARIA FISHER
MAKES MANY BEQUESTS
Tuskegee, and Hampton Institutes Receive $10,000 Each
DAUGHTER OF HENRY CLAY
Decreased Resided in New York for Three quarters of a Century-Helped Many Ambitious Young People.
Many colored persons and institutions are named beneficiaries in the will of the late Ann Maria Fisher, who died October 19, at her home, 59 Fleet place, Brooklyn, aged 93 years. The will was filed for probate Monday. The value of the estate is estimated at $65,000. Tuskegee and Hampton Institutes are left $10,000
THE LATE, MRS. ANNA MARIA FISHER
each, and Frank H. Gilbert, 15 Douglass street, Brooklyn, is named residuary legatee and executor without bond.
After directing that all funeral expenses and debts he paid the testatrix makes the following bequests: Hampton Normal and Agricultural Institute, $10,000; Tuskegee Normal and Industrial Institute, $10,000; Siloam Presbyterian Church, Brooklyn, $5,000; the Amanda Smith Orphan Home, Harvey, Ill., $1,000; Carlton Avenue Branch of the, Y. M. C. A., $500; David J. Bruce, Brooklyn, $2,000; Mary E. E. Bruce, daughter of David J. Bruce, $2,000; Harriet and Lillian Shadd, daughters of the late Dr. Furman Shadd, Washington, D.C., $1,000 each; the Rev. William A. Alexander, Brooklyn, $500; Alice Louisa Brown, $500; Nathaniel B. Onley, Jacksonville, Fla., $500; George Bruce, Norwich, Conn., $500. The witnesses to the will are the Rev. W. R. Lawton and W. R. Briggs, both of Brooklyn.
Mrs. Fisher was born in 1818 on the Clay homestead at Lexington, Ky., and at the age of nineteen was married to Nathaniel Lewis, who also belonged to the Clay family. The couple ran away from Lexington and New York, living in New York City for eight years, then moving to Brooklyn, where the deceased lived the balance of her life.
Upon leaving Kentucky Anna Lewis had about $800 and her husband had saved a similar sum. It was not long before they became engaged in different business enterprises and were very successful. After a happy married life Nathaniel Lewis died and the widow remained unmarried for twenty-five years. Her second husband, Benjamin Fisher, died about a year ago. Although she lived in the North for over three-quarters of a century, Mrs. Fisher regarded herself as a Southern woman, and in making bequests left sums to educational institutions in the South only, giving as her reason that the schools in the South were doing so much for the uplift of the race that they were deriving of her support.
During life Mrs. Fisher aided a large number of young people who were ambitious to go into business and to give homes. She had been known to give $100 to $1,000 to those who wanted to own their own homes.
Funeral services were held over the remains Sunday afternoon from the Siloam Presbyterian Church, Brooklyn, and were largely attended. The Rev. William Alexander officiated, assisted by the Rev. W. R. Lawton and the Rev. George Frazier Miller. The callbearers were Charles H. Lansing, William Russell Johnson, William H. Smith, M. R. Corder, Rittie Ed. A. Barefield, Oliver and O. Livingston. Under-taker Arthur Q. Martin, 178 Daffield street, Brooklyn, had charge of the funeral. Among the floral tributes were pieces from Mr. and Mrs. Peter Rogers, Mrs. Henrietta Douglass, Mr. and Mrs. Frank H. Gilbert and Miss Ella Greenly.
The interment was in Evergreen Cemetery.

ABOUT COMMITTEE OF FOURTEEN
Secretary Hooke Says No Color Prejudice Is Being Shown in the Investigation of Saloons and Hotels—Praises for Associate Committee.
Walter G. Hooke, executive secretary of the Committee of Fourteen, denies that the committee is extending most of its efforts to the closing of colored saloons and hotels in New York City, and in a statement to The Age declares that the Committee of Fourteen is devoting its attention to any and all saloons, etc., not conducted along respectable lines.
To a representative of The Age Mr. Hooke said: "It is absurd for some to charge that we are spending most of our time trying to close up colored saloons and hotels and pay but little attention to similar places conducted by whites. A glance over our list will show that we have had several-hundred cases in which white proprietors have been the subject of investigation to less than a dozen colored men. Yet you will hear that the Committee of Fourteen is trying to put colored saloons out of business because Negroes conduct them." "As a matter of fact, we have been more lenient with the colored saloons and hotelkeepers than with the whites, as ye fully realize that the colored people have less places to go to than the yhites, and ye have not objected to rathskellers run by Negroes, with music and singers, so long as the places were orderly and within the bounds of propriety. The Committee of Fourteen has been ally assisted in the work of regulating colored saloons and hotels by an associate committee, composed of Fred R. Moore, chairman; Dr. P. A. Johnson, Dr. E. P. Roberts, Counsellor James L. Curtis and George Haynes.
"It has the chief aim of the Committee of Fourteen to see that all the saloons, cafes, restaurants and hotels of New York are conducted with a high regard for decency, and we make no exception in closing them whether they he large establishments or small, whether the owners are white or colored."
CHURCH DEDICATED AT SYRACUSE
Special to Twin New York Aoe*
Syracuse, N. Y., Nov. 1.—After several months' delay the new A. M. E. Zion Church at E. Fayette street, was dedicated last Sunday afternoon at 3 o'clock. The Rev. James E. Mason of Livingston College delivered the dedication sermon, which was optimistic as to the future of the church. He declared that the world was growing better and that it is not true that the church is losing its grip upon the people. Mayor Edward Schoeneck was present and congratulated the pastor and the members upon their success. Considerable work remains to be done on the edifice before it is completed, but it is believed that with the amount raised at this service that they will be able to complete the work by giving a mortgage covering the remainder of the cost of the erection of the building. During the day $236.36 was taken in cash and a check for $300 received. The pastor stated that he had received $700 also for this pose. The Rev. Bailey stated that strenuous efforts had to be made to raise at least $300.00 during the next ten days for the work to proceed. The Rev. E. N. Brooks, pastor of the A. M. E. Zion Church at Auburn, N. Y.; the Rev. Smith also of Auburn, and the Rev. Morse of Oneida, N. Y., also took part in the services. Presiding T. A. Autuen of Bath, N. Y., was master of ceremonies.

THEN THEY FIGHT
Attorneys Outlook and Leavelle Engage in Fisticuffs on Street
Curviller Told by Republican Lawyer That Democrats Never Intended to Pass Bill
Tries to Place Blame on Republicans—Leville Takes Exceptions to Attach on Cuvillier by Outlier.
An argument during Sunday afternoon's session of the Equity Congress over the failure of the Democrates at Albany to make the Cuvillier bill, which provided for a colored regiment in New York, a law, ended in a fight after adjournment of congress, the principals being Attorney David C. Outlear and Attorney Louis A. Leavelle. The fight was a fast and furious one while it lasted, but was not fought exactly under the Marquets of Queensbury rules, as the contestants, at times, ignored the implementa- of war usually employed by those who indulge in the manly art, going after each other in mule-like and rat-like fashion.
The fight was witnessed by a large crowd, many of the onlookers having attended the meeting of the Equity Congress. The belligerents were separated by friends, but not mutu- several blows and kicks had been exchanged, and one of the fighters had gnawed with marked avidity on his opponent's thumb. Considerable blood was wasted.
Attorney Outear is a Republican, and Attorney Leavelle a Democrat. The former is opposed to the re-election of Louis A. Cuvillier on the Democratic ticket as a member of the Legislature from the Thirteenth Assembly, while the latter is a red-hot Cuvillier man. At the session of the Equity Congress a week previous the Republicans appeared to have the majority and disapproved Cuvillier and the Democrats for not giving the Negro voters a colored regiment. Attorney Outear was one of these who spoke against Cuvillier's candidacy. Assemblyman Cuvillier was persuaded Sunday afternoon by his colored Democratic supporters to appear before the Equity Congress in person and defend himself and his administration, which he attempted to so. He declared that although he introduced the bill and it passed in the Senate and the Assembly, that it failed to become a law because of the opposition of Adjutant-General Verbeck, a Republican, who advised Governor Dix not to sign the measure.
Oppose Motion to Extend Cuvillier Vote of Thanks.
After the father of the bill had mislaid a motion was made that a rising vote of thanks be extended to him, and Attorney Outlear objected strenuously to the motion's passage. He made a speech condemning Cuvillier and the Democratic Legislature, stating that the Democrats never intend giving the Negroes a colored regiment; that it was a case of jolly frogs start to finish, and questioned the charge that Verbeck, a Republican, was more influential than a Democratic Legislature and Governor Dix. Attorney Outlear furnished cause for more talk and Attorney Leaville joined in. The two yawyers met only a short distance from the meeting place on 134th street, near Lenox avenue, after adjournment, and Leaville is said to have upbraided Outlear for taking the position he did. The Republican lawyer then informed his Democratic colleague that he (Leaville) did not find it difficult to get about because of the heavy load of brains and common sense he was carrying, to which Leaville took exceptions. "I will give you two seconds to take back your assertion," yelled Leaville, who is the larger of the two. Either Outlear thought Leaville two-twenty minutes to have made up his brains to Leaville's demand of apology, for he remained silent with arms folded. The Democratic lawyer was very prompt, when the two seconds were over, Outlear had not apologized he lay with his right on the Republic physiognomy.
Then the fight began in ear Outlair drew first blood and their claim that the anti-Cuvillier bested his adversary. Although bleeding, Leavelle is said to have asked how he could cure, to allow him to resume the hostilities, but the request was denied.

MOB LAW AND HYSTERIC
CLAMOR FOR REPRISALS.
---
The man who is usually on good terms with himself and the rest of mankind is the man who does not become hysterical every tinge a difficult situation confounds him, and lie down helplessly or run away in despair; on the contrary, he looks the difficult situation coolly in the face and does deliberately, without passion, the thing wisest and best to be done to safeguard his life or his property. True; this is not easy to do in most difficult situations, as men are, for the most part, carried off their feet swept away by the environment of the moment, by the unkicked for insult, by the blow in the face unprovoked, but the easy tinge to do counts for little in any situation, it is the difficult thing that counts. As with an individual, so with a race, so with a nation. Half the wars in history are traceable to the absence of the overlord brave enough to blunt the keen edge of insult, or injury, by the soft answer that turns away wrath.
The Negro people face a delicate as well as a critical situation in the prevalence of mob outbreaks against them in all sections of the country, including New York City, and none can tell the moment when the misdeed of some worthless creature, black or white, may not provoke a race riot that will draw into its sweep the offending and the unoffending. Such situations arise every day in one or another section of the country. Each man is the best judge of what he should do when he comes upon one of them, or one of them comes upon him; and he is not a wise counselor who would avise another, or a race, or a nation, to do in hot blood what he would not do in cold blood. Two courses we determined upon for ourselves long ago: (1) We will not provoke a war, but do what is reasonable to discourage one; (2) we will not run away from a war when another forces it upon us, but do what is reasonable to make the other one run away.
We came upon a case in point last week on emerging from the subway at 90th street. Two white toughs of the heavy set pugilistic type were standing at the mouth of the subway, compelling a long line of people to squeeze by them. A small man, strong as wires, just ahead of us, who had been delayed by the blockade, gave the first tough he came upon a shove which sent him into the street. A war of words ensued. Two hundred people gathered, ready to do the toughs if they proceeded to violence. Fortunately for them they thought better of it. If the small man had done that on the far East Side there would have been a riot. As it was, he did not look for trouble, when he got into it he did not run away from it. It does not alter the case in the least that they were all white and variations of white. One man's rights cease where another man's rights begin.
All this is but a prelude to an impassioned plea in the Topeka Plaindealer that something be done because a stronger Negro at Durant, Okla. August 13, charged with assaulting a white woman, was lynched, photographed and burned by a white mob. The Plaindealer reproduces the ghastly photograph, strangely enough, October 13, and wants every Negro paper in the land to reproduce it. 'We beg to be excused from doing any such ghastly thing in the AGE. The horror of the recital is sufficient without the pictured image to fire the imagination of the readers of THE AGE against a critical situation which, in the last analysis, the people of Oklahoma will have to settle themselves.
As the State of Oklahoma will not act the Plaindealer thinks that "it is the duty of the President and the National Government, to act". But the Plaindealer should not think that way. It should re-read the Constitution of the United States, in which it will find that "the President and the National government" have no power to act in such cases, unless the Governor of Oklahoma, despairing of or not desiring to control the situation, should call upon them to do so. Over all such lawlessness the Constitution gives the several states absolute sovereignty. Nor can an amendment to the Constitution be enacted by which the several states must surrender and to invest the government the police
powers of the states under which lawlessness is classed. The Plaindealer concludes its appeal as follows:
The late Senator John J. Ingalls once said well enough; what the African race needs is another Toussaint L'Overture with the blood stained banner of revolution and the state of affairs has become unbearable, and the black man must learn to fight this. The law is blind in dealing with blacks, hence they must protect themselves.
We did not take much stock in Senator Ingalls living and we take less in his advice dead. Negroes who get into trouble are not, in the main, those who stick to "the Bible and hymn book," but those who do not. And when the Negro unfurls, "the blood-stained banner of revolution and the torch and sword" to right his wrongs he will find that he will have to overcome the power of the Nation, as John Brown found it at Harper's Ferry, and not the mob of his neighborhood. Let him defend himself in a given situation, when menaced, as white men do, of, right, but he should be in the right when he does it. The criminal Negro is a nuisance and a menace.
"TO HANG A BOY WOULD BE
ATROCIOUS."
Now and again some sentence escapes an American editorial pen which echoes around the globe like the shot fired by "the enbattled farmers" of Concord, or the vulgar humanity of the Rebel interment at Fort Sumter, who said of Colonel Robert Gould Snow "Terry him with his Niggers." "To having a boy would be attrocious. To be sure the boy is black." Or such sort as these two sentences from the editorial page of the Los Angeles (Cal.) Examiner, one of the William Randolph Hearst string of newspapers. It is a far cry from Los Angeles to New York. But it makes itself heard, as impassioned eries for fair play, for justice, for children, ambiciles and women will be heard. The Christian philosophy has not been hammered into mankind for 1911 years in vain.
"The black boy in question, to be sure," lives in Arkansas. He is but fifteen years old. He quarrelled with a companion and killed him. The Supreme Court of Arkansas, disregarding the appeals of thousands of people of the Northern and Eastern States for clemency, affirmed the sentence of death. The case is in the hands of Governor Donaghey. "Will he be as contemptuous of public opinion as was the Supreme Court?" asks the Examiner. His address to the Negro Business League, at Little Rock, last August, suggests a negative answer. We shall see.
MORE TROUBLE IN ATLANTA.
The people in the city of Atlanta are fast waking up to the fact that putting men and women in prison does not bring about a higher civilization. For years Atlanta has pursued the policy of putting more individuals in prison in proportion to the size of the city than any other city perhaps in the United States or in the world. The people themselves in Atlanta, we are glad to say, are waking up to the fact that Atlanta is being put in an awkward position before the civilized world. We quote the following from the Atlanta Constitution: Power arrests and lower arrangements in the Recorder's Court to this a committee from the Chamber of Commerce and the Police Board are now working, and the City Council is soon to be called upon to lend a hand.
Newark, N. J., with 348,000 people, had only 9,200 arrests in 1910; Jersey City, with her 267,000 people, had 9,347, and Cleveland, with her 591,000 arrests, had 7,185 arrests. Atlanta, during the same year, with her 154,000, had 18,160 arrests, or twice as many arrests as did Cleveland, with 5,790 left over for good measure.
We have one suggestion to make, that is instead of imprisoning people, Atlanta try education, civilized enlightenment. A very large proportion of the colored children cannot get into the public schools for lack of room and money, and those who do attend are poorly taught because of inadequate facilities.
Atlanta will continue to be disgraced in the eyes of the civilized world until it gives Negro children something like the same facilities for public school education that it gives to the white children. How can Atlanta expect colored boys and girls to be as law-abiding and as intelligent and conscientious as the white children when she shuts the Carnegie Library in the face of the Negro child and invites the white child $ ^{10} $ . The next day the Negro child is arrested for vagrancy or for crime, whereas if the child had been permitted to go into the same library it might have kept out of trouble.
We hope that the people of Atlanta will soon begin to use their consciences as well as their minds.
The editor of the Washington Bee, who spends much of his time in the criminal courts of Washington, says: Is not the young Negro of to-day inflicted with a greater criminal tendency than those in former years or soon after reconstructing? The so-called intelligent
classes are not going to teach reformation. They have become intoxicated with social propeusities and are ambitious for dress and frolic. The police court of this city seems to be monopolized by a class of individuals who have no respect for the higher walks of life. There is a great deal of work for the pulpit to do, and it should see to it that a reformation takes place among the criminal classes of this community.
"WASHINGTON "POINTS THE WAY."
The Dallas Express publishes an editorial in its issue of October 21, entitled: "Washington's Enemies on the Run," referring, of course, to the more or less tumultuous gentlemen who continue from time to time to advances the picturesque Thomas W. Wilson, Princeton University and Wilson, Governor of New not the same; they do not they do not have the same aspirations. Perla Wilson wants to be Pre United States therefore
Nobody "inflicts" criminality upon the Washington black; he afflicts himself. A great many of them get into the police courts, but they are but a small percentage of the 100,000 Negro population of the District of Columbia. We quite agree with the Bee, however, that more effort should be made to reclaim and to protect the criminal element from itself. Our "intelligent classes, so-called," would do more in this as in other directors if they had not so many troubles of their own, not of "dress and frolic," but mainly of poverty and the nonest effort to maintain Christian homes, educate their children and maintain their church organizations. If they do this under existing conditions of poverty they are doing very well. The law can be left to look after the criminals for the present.
DEMOCRATIC SHIBBOLETHS.
DEMOCRATIC SHIBBOLETHS.
Once upon a time the newspapers when short on wit and lone on stupidity used to ring the changes on the old saw "Who struck Billy Patterson!" And the tired reader would say to himself "Billy Patterson!" Then, after the lapse of time, came that other saw "I come from Missouri, show me!" and the tired reader would say to himself "Show me! Who is Show Me!" Then, after a long time, Cole and Johnson launched another saw "Can't do nothing till Martin comes!" And the tired reader would say "Martin Who is Martin!" Now, all this is silly enough, but it is upon such stuff that the average newspaper reader, and theatre-goer feeds, laughs and grows fat, and, the last time we attended a campaign speech making, the enthused political "rooters," shrouded in tobacco smoke, made the atmosphere dense with sound as he arose and smiled and looked wise. Shouts of "Anderson—What's the matter with Charlie Anderson? He's all right!" And the newspaper reader and theatre-goer and "political rooter" can be carried further in the way the prophet wants them to go by a joke, a jest or a witticism, than by a whole hour of what Horace Greeley used to style "dry-as-dust" argument, delivered in a stentorian voice, with the solemnity of a funeral sermon.
After the same sort of saws, but a long way after, is the deathless question, which no man has answered since effort to do killed Thomas Jefferson at Monticello, "A Democrat—what is a Democrat!" Let any man walk into a packed Democratic meeting in Cooper Union or Palm Garden or Carnegie Hall, and, while stillness reigns, breathless ask, "What is a Democrat?" There might not be a riot, but the effort of those present to answer the question would make a noise like that at the Tower of Babel when the tongues of mankind were confused, so that they could no more understand one than the other; and it might not break up the meeting, but it would require the music of many brass bands to prevent it from doing so. Less vexations questions, easier to answer, asked under such conditions, have done so.
"A Democrat—what is a Democrat?" The party platforms since 1898 count for nothing as defining the question, because each one of them, four years apart, stands for a different one, in the effort to catch votes and not to define party principles. There is no man in all of the Republic so to be pitted as a Democrat who has and can give no reason for the faith, for the principles, which impel him to style himself a Democrat.
If there is a man in the Republic who should know what a Democrat is and what the National Democratic party stands for that man is William Jennings Bryan of Nebraska; but he does not know and has changed the Shibboleth every quadrimedium since 1896, when he first became, at the Chicago convention, the Democratic voice of one crying in the wilderness, "Free and unlimited coinage of silver at the ratio of 16 to 1." What is the Democratic Shibboleth today? There are no four Democrats of the four sections of the country who could answer the question in the same way. Ex-Governor W. L. Douglas of the East has one answer; Governor Woottow Wilson of the North has one answer; Governor Hoke Smith of the South has one answer; Governor Harmon of the West has one answer; but the four answers compared would not make a concrete Shibboleth which all Democrats could pronounce without dropping the test letter.
In his newspaper, the Commonner, of October 13, Mr. Bryan says: "The fight for the control of the next Democratic convention is the old fight, between the progressives and the reactionaries." Let them fight among themselves, the Democrats; they are not any good for anything else. Each Republican knows what his party stands for, and he stands for what his party stands. That is half the victory.
"WASHINGTON "POINTS THE WAY."
The Dallas Express publishes an editorial in its issue of October 21, entitled: "Washington's Enemies on the Run," referring, of course, to the more or less tumultuous gentlemen who continue from time to time to bark at the heels of Dr. Washington. Brother W. E. King, the editor of the Express, is a man, strong-minded and not at all mealy-mouthed in the expression of his opinions. He is a man who has in the past essayed to criticise the Tuskegee educator, when he has thought it wise to do so, and that he will continue this policy in the future, no one who knows him will doubt; but, nevertheless, Brother King in his Dallas Express says:
The enemies of Booker T. Washington have foundered on the rocks. They have taken to the tall timber. By the works of Washington these gentlemen have been barely discomfited. Washington after all has evidently "chosen the better part." His doctrine of conservation coupled with his clarion calls for patience and labor, have set the world thinking—and thought will move the world. After all it must be conceded that the Negro at present situated and constituted with rare exceptions needs the friendly aid and advice of those who must (whether they so desire or not) furnish him broad and the other means of existence. His ignorance and poverty and prowess to extravagance make him a plenipotent in whatever hands he falls. It is well that Mr. Washington is applying his great intellect to making this clear fact to the end that the whites may exercise that patience and prefer that help and protection, without which all Negro progress must cease. Thoughtful men of both races are coming to see Mr. Washington in this light and adhere to the discretion and courage of the man as he works at his heretofore task.
In this struggle the duty of the great body of men of the entire country, without regard to race or color, is plain. Let the better element of white men and black men take the long distance view, let them count up all the cost, let them measure well the work, and it is our opinion that the consummate Judgment of mankind will be that Washington points the way.
We believe with the Express that Dr. Washington "points the way" and that he is in his work blazing the way for the Negro to realize upon his great opportunities and possibilities.

There is nothing certain in baseball or in an old sledge. A slip of the foot, the turn of a card, and all is lost. Mathewson, the Giant, has lost his wizard curve.
There are three Democrats on the Supreme Court bench, and Democrats are advising President Taft to appoint a fourth to succeed the late Justice Harlan. Will he do it?

Ida Lewis, the keeper of the Lime Rock lighthouse, near Newport, for fifty-four years, is dead. She lived a life of devoted service, and made a fame, without striving to do so, which will live in marine song and story as long as the sun shall wax and the moon shall wane.
Orville Wright, one of the pioneer aviators, says that "the bird instinct lies dormant in man and can be developed so that a human can fly even better than a bird." The bird and fish races are coming to their own as rulers of the thought and efforts of mankind, as all those of "the dry land," the last of those of the earth, were doomed by prophecy 4,260 years ago. (See Gen. 7, xxiii)
The Italians are shooting Arabs right and left in Tripoli, because of alleged rioting and looting by the unattended children of the desert. But the Arabs are at home in Tripoli and the Italians are not; if the Italians were at home in Italy instead of being in Tripoli by the law of riot and looting called war, there would be no need of shooting Arabs for rioting and looting in the effort to get even with the Italians for rioting and looting Tripoli by the laws of war.
Sollson Hutchins, who with Berigh Wilkins and Frank Hatton, established the Washington Post, is now old and enfeebled, but must grieve over the fight his wife is having with his trustees for the control of his millions. Frank Hatton made his reputation on the Burlington Hawkeye and sank it in the New York Press, Hutchins and Wilkins, who made the money, were Democrats, Mr. Hatton was a Republican. It is not safe to be unquestionably yoked in politics.
Victor Berger, the Wisconsin Socialist; member of Congress, proposed in the last Congress that Presidential candidates be nominated by primary instead of by convention vote; and now the Democratic National Committee, when it meets, January 8, it is said, will be asked to adopt the principle and recommend that the Democrats of the States elect delegates to the national convention by direct vote. A Democratic proposition to remove the capital from Washington to Atlanta would not be surprising.
"What's in a name?" A writer in the New York Sun, in undertaking to explain the present vagaries of Governor Woodrow Wilson of New Jersey, who is running for the Democratic nomination for President, ad-
vances the picturesque theory that Thomas W. Wilson, president of Princeton University and Woodrow Wilson, Governor of New Jersey, are not the same; they do not think alike; they do not have the same hopes, the same aspirations. Perhaps, Governor Wilson wants to be President of the United States, therefore he shapes his opinions to catch votes, and not to instruct students. He goes after the theories of William Jennings Bryan, Champ Clark and Josephus Daniels, the politicians, and not after those of Woodrow Wilson, the professor, the philosopher, of whom wise men are glad to learn. The echo of a voice is not the voice of an echo. Many good men have been killed, in one way or or another, by changing their names.
The Chicago Defender suggests that Jack Johnson and Bombadier Wells might pull off their mix-up in Africa without police interference; but in Africa is just where they can do nothing of the sort. What is there in Africa that European powers have not zoned off and control? They would consider it a bad example indeed to give a black man a chance to knock a white into "a stiff" for the comfort and encouragement of the vast hordes of black natives, who are restive under the yoke of the conquerors, as are those of Asia. The mill might be pulled off in French Africa, it is true, as Frenchmen are not afraid of black men, but make soldiers and officers of them, but in that case why go to French Africa when French Paris reseter and more alluring to those who go the peace. And then, too, Johnson says he is not going to fight any more, although it is understood that Hugh McLintosh has him tied up to an Australian proposition. In London Johnson has shown that he has big spending ideas, and sports of that sort, unless they keep on winning, have to be buried by their friends, as Isaac Murphy and Peter Jackson were.

"Let him that is without sin cast the first stone" appears to have broken out in high white life in the South" in dead earnest, so to speak. Henry Clay Beatie of Richmond is yet unhung, but sentenced to be hanged for murdering his young wife; a young white woman is still in the hands of New Orleans law accused of poisoning three members of her family in order to profit by the insurance on their lives; the St. Louis "high-brow" who put away his young wife because he discovered that she belongs to the Negro end of the Anglo-Sason Mobish, which eats 'em going and coming, has taken her back to his-heart, and, during the past week, Atlanta, and Georgia, were regaled with a whole tank of bilge water scandal by Mrs. Hanson to break the will of her husband, the late Mayor John P. Hanson, late president of the Central Railroad of Georgia. The mayor's private life, it appears by the testimony of his wife, was full of thrills which make high society shake its heads and wag its tongues. The white South is ever so much better than the black South, morally, but we don't see it. They should both fight the moral leprosy they have in common, instead of fighting each other "because of race, color," and the like
The New York Evening Post takes no stock in the yarn in the race riot reports, that come out of the South that "the Negroes are armed and threaten to massacre all of the whites." Speaking of "Coweta's Race Terrorism," in Oklahoma, last week, the Evening Post says, "There has hardly been a single authenticated case in a decade of the Negroes rising against the whites, despite the growing feeling among them that there should be some retaliation, since no tribunals will punish lynchers or enforce the laws." We notice, however, the frequency with which white men as well as black men are killed in the alleged race riots. It was so in the Coweta one. It is not a bad sign. If white men cannot abide the enforcement of the law themselves have made it just that they who go out to kill others should themselves be killed. A law too good for a white man to obey is not too good for a black man to dishey when his life and property are imperilled. We notice also that the officers of the law go in for disarming blacks, while allowing whites to have all the arms they can secure. This was done in the Washington Atlanta, Coweta and other riots. Why?
Wages of Biotous Living
How to live be knowledge that is acquired, and to the public teachers is left the task of giving out the knowledge that shall make life most worth while. It is rank folly to believe that rockelessness is adjournment, or license pleasure. Life inevitably takes the individual exactly what he puts into it. We cannot waste our substance in riotous living and still live in plenty. There is something materially wrong with the society, and we cannot care carefully its youth. For low ideals and poor living among its young people means poor racial development. There is a gross lack in the teachings that are being passed on that it is to be desired above all else.—Illinois Chronicle.

Excursion Ways in Texas
This is the season when some of our people take short trips from one station to another with their suit cases—I mean with their flour sack—a to visit "cuddin Kitty."

Some Ways at Concerts
It has always been a mystery why apparently intelligent people, when at a concert or an entertainment of any high order, will laugh and talk while others are heard. It is very ill-mannered and shows a lack of good breeding. If the entertainment is not to your liking, get up and go out but not disturb those who do envy it and have paid just that privilege—Chicago Defender.
What the Preacher Holds
The preacher holds the vantage ground as a race leader, and he enjoys the confidence and respect of the masses by reason of his profession, to deliver the message, to encourage, to enjoy. Therefore, the duty and responsibility devolving upon him by reason of the nature of his profession, makes his obligations double, and he is more prepared to provide examples than any other class of men—Atlanta Independent.
Water "For White People Only."
There has recently been installed in the public square down town an ice water fountain with this sign attached, "For White People Only." (one would scarcely have thought that the first official act of the honorable commissioners of Mobile affecting the Negroes was a commission against the entire rates. The Negroes, like all the other people of Mobile, looked forward to the commission form of government with the hope that conditions might be better for them along all lines and that much of the inconvenience and unnecessary restraints, so far as it is concerned, might be done away with. -Mobile Press.
The One Talent and Ten
We do not believe that God intended for man's mind to remain undeveloped. He did not intend that his creatures should forever remain ignorant and insecure. Wherever he places talents in the insurance, we have no evidence of growth and increase, therefore it is our duty to educate and prepare all for the intelligent use of what God has given them. If we exert ourselves in this life, if we expect to be numbered among the learned, the strong, the moulders of public sentiment, the masters of things material, free from abject mould or servitude, we must obey the laws of nature, like to let this idea run all through our schools until it permeates the life of every boy, every girl, every man, every woman, making its influence felt in all homes, every clime and among all nations of Clarkburg. (W. V.) Charion
A. Get: Together Summons
Every white boy born in this country can hope for the highest that a sovereign nation can hostay, but no black ever dreams of such things. If he enters a bank as a porter his career will begin with no chance whatever of reaching it. He will be in his affairs. He may enter as a boy and the gray hairs of many winters may silently attest to service, faithfulness and true but he is porter still. The black country where the heavy hand of race discrimination is not felt. Much of this harshness would be ameliorated if the Negro would hims- if respect and trust his own people. Discouraged by his Negro sends more discouragement to heart of his own people than the meanest white man. Politics, religion, education nor anything else will tend to help our future as much as race love pride, or this proposition lets us get together.-Norfolk New Century.

there is up to date a woeful lack of genuine enthusiasm. Divided into small warringroups, the Negro seemingly without party, or purpose, led by men who are fighting solely on behalf of the oppressed, on without thought or head of the tremendous stake at issue. If through some unforeseen circumstance, Massachusetts should go Democratic, who is there among us hold enough to reach the point where a triumphant Democracy would not go; they are pledged to assault the business of the country, by attacks on the tariff, and drunk with power would attempt to reach the point where they would strengthen the South in its position, and retard the advance made, a leader is needed, to harmonize the warring factions. Will the powers that hold the destiny of the Republican party carry out their purpose to help cement into a harmonious body the colored vote?—Cambridge (Mass.) Advocate.
He Is the Master Workman.
The master, workman of God is he who possesses that courage of soul and sprightness of spirit that will not quail in the darkness and gloom of the breaking storm of opposition; he is that courageous embodiment of determent that would help the soul of obstacles thrown by chemies athwart the pathway of his passage; he is the master and not the slave of condition or circumstance; he is he who can stand erect in the consciousness of inward integrity of purpose and can look the way. Though poor, I am God's faithful workman and a manly man still—National Baptist Union-Review.
How Land Owners Feel.
The Negroes down here in the South are still buying land. It is not high priced or expensive, as a rule, but cheap, which, with the labor they apply and the rapid increase in value, any man can buy, and a very clear line of demarcation is slowly but surely being drawn between the man who makes and wastes and the one who makes and saves. Some of our ministers, the officers, the laborers have little bank accounts, hold the insurance policies and stock in buildings and both associations. It can readily be seen how much more nearly one becomes when he feels that his living is provided for beyond the limits of a pepper or sulphur for bread. Savannah independent.
Southerners Ashamed of It.
When the rice question threatened to come before the Ecumenical Conference our southern brethren immediately got upon the defensive, Bishop Hendrix told of the opportunities that the Conference had dramatically placing his hand upon the head of Bishop Phillips, with by the way, was educated almost exclusively by Northern money, said that the Southern Methodism made it possible to have a large retainer of the Ecumenical Conference. Another brother from the South told of how they were educating the Negro, how they had sent them to Congress and the Sequoia etc. to do so, and how they had shown one thing, that much as the Southern white man holds up for the South, when he gets out in company there are some things he is ashamed of. He hope when he goes back home will be able to do something especially with regard to education and the ballot—Christian Recorder.
Now After the Chineman
The gentlemanly ruffians in the South must be kept busy, or rather amused, and as there is no novelty in lynching a Negro or riddling him with bullets, they have seized upon the South to be a lawful prey in Mexico and some parts of the South he is not only unwelcome, but in many places driven out of town. We are glad to see it, not that we approve of it, but because it will bring the South to a state of lawlessness of people that have yet to learn that they are not the birds of creation and there are rights that must be respected, even if one is not of the Caucasian race. The Chinamen have a government back of them and they are not the birds of creation. That some one will have to pay for the injustices done the darker races is a certainty. It may not be to-day or to-morrow, but the time will come when they will join bands and rise by pound from their enemies. Everytime comes to him who waits actively—Chicago defender.
The True-Blue Southerners
There were sporadic attempts, and yet incessant in a way, to blot out slavery from the beginning, or shortly after the Dutch trading vessel Van in 1619 fished at Sambown, Va. in 1629. The slave was an effort in kind to get rid of the thing by noble-minded men and women who would have no part of a system which was their bequestment in part. They, of course, were few and not many. The slave was an irreligious, full-throated demand of capital and development. But they did their part—registered against what, to their minds, was a sin. In our general abuse of the section we are more than not strictly confined to any section. The early history of the Southeastern States, especially, is filled with bitter discussions of that day about the subjugation of African slavery. We are friends, free from nearly constant to discuss. There were state enactments, also ordinances and decrees emanating from various sources, prohibiting or limiting further importation and kindred measures, looking forward, to the future. We are friends were few in comparison, but samulet and true; and when old Samulet let house they cast their labs with the fortunes of the North; and a faithful remnant still remains as evidence of the slave's beginning, and eventual Indian possessions.

Politica in Rhode Island
To the Editor of The Age
I wish to correct a statement made in your paper regarding Rhode Island's recognition of the colored voters, to the effect that Dr. W. H. Higgins was the first colored man to serve as a city committeeman in the state. For the benefit of the readers of The Age, also injustice to our state and party, it is well to make the statement clear. While it is a fact that Dr. Higgins is first to serve in that capacity in Providence, we rejoice that there has been a city committeeman in Newport for twenty-two years, namely, Charles P. D. Fayerweather, Capt. J. W. Johnson, W. P. Nightingale, J. W. Berry, A. Hurley, M. A. Vanhorne and W. H. Jackson, the present doorkeeper of the House of Representatives, who is now serving his twenty-second year, from March 2.

HEADWAITER A GREAT RACE MON
Hot Springs, Ark., Oct. 30.—Robert M. Smith is a citizen who has achieved great success in this part of Virginia and is worthy of the respect and good wishes of the entire race.
He came to Hot Springs more than sixteen years ago as head waiter at the Homestead Hotel, and during all that time has steadily pushed himself forward, gradually climbing step by step until he has reached a lofty and enviable position in his chosen profession. By tect, skill and natural ability he handles a body of men such they were members of one family.
Mr. Smith has ingratified himself in the confidence of his men to such an extent that they do his bidding with the same degree of observance that an obedient child hews to the will of its parents. He is not guilty of men, but a great financier and philanthropist as well.
Mr. Smith is a large real estate owner in Covington, Clifton Force and Hot Springs, Va. He is part owner of a large dry-goods and shoe store at Covington, Va., owns and operates a large modern-equipped Troy steam laundry at Covington, Va., with agency closes of Clifton Force and Hot Springs, and is financially interested in several other enterprises at this place. He is greatly interested in the educational advancement of his race along all lines, and to that end has given much of his valuable time and has contributed thousands of dollars. When the Clifton Forge High Industrial School failed two years ago for the want of funds he went to its rescue, purchased the plant at a cost of more than $5,000, reorganized and had it chartered by the state of Virginia and placed it under the management of Rev. Daniel W. Hill, A. B. B. D., giving it new life and starting it on an upward road of progress and success. Mr. Smith made an appeal to the man in his employment on October 20, 1911, for a carload of coal for the
THE

Clifton Forge Normal and Industrial Institute and they responded with such alacrity that within thirty minutes more than one hundred dollars had been contributed and the winter supply of coal for the school had been assured.
Mr Smith is a big-hearted, whole-souled Christian gentleman and is popular with friends and acquaintances.

THEATRE MANAGER LOSES CASE
MRS. HATTIE ROBERTS. 236
W. Fifty-third street, wife of
Dr. Charles H. Roberts, one of
the leading colored dentists in New
York City; was awarded judgment for
$200 damages Monday against Joseph
Carr, a theatrical manager, by Judge
Thomas Murray, of the Third District
Municipal Court. Mrs. Roberts
sued Carr for $500 for ejecting her
from the first floor of the New York
Theatre on the evening of September
6.
At the time of the incident Mrs.
Roberts was with her husband, who
MRS. HATTIE ROBERTS
MRS. HATTIE ROBERTS
was also forced to give up his orchestra seat. Now that Mrs. Roberts case has been disposed of, Dr. Roberts will institute civil proceedings for damages against Carr. The defendant was manager at the New York Theatre on September 6, and was in the employ of the William Fox Production Company which was conducting a vaudeville and motion picture show at the theatre where the ejection occurred. Dr. and Mrs. Roberts were compelled to give up their seats on the first floor because the management objected to colored people sitting in that part of the house.
Knowing that the Civil Rights Act provides that all citizens are entitled to equal rights and privileges in all theatres, restaurants, inns and all places of public accommodation and amusement, subject only to such restrictions as are provided by law and applicable alike to citizens of every race and color, Mrs. Roberts brought suit to test the constitutionality of the act, which became a law in 1895.
In rendering a decision in the case Judge Murray did not hand down a written opinion, the only entry on the books of the court showing that it had been disposed of being that judgment for $200 had been rendered in favor of the plaintiff. However, the case was decided on the evidence, which showed that Dr. and Mrs. Roberts had been ejected from the first floor of the New York Theatre because of their color. By giving Mrs. Roberts judgment for $200 damages Judge Murray made it evident that

```
DR. CHARLES H. ROBERTS
Manager Carr had been guilty of violating the Civil Rights Act. The case was heard in the Third District Municipal Court Thursday, October 19, and the decision was reserved by Judge Murray until last Monday. On the evening of September 6, Dr. and Mrs. Roberts secured orchestra seat tickets at the New York Theatre and were seated by one of the attaches of the house. They had only been in the theatre a short time when an usher approached them and asked to see their coupons. Dr. Roberts refused to give up the pieces of cardboard, but allowed the usher to take a good look at them.
A few moments later Manager Carr informed the couple that they would have to change their seats and go stairs, to which suggestion Dr. Roberts remonstrated. Carr then called a police officer, who told Dr. and Mrs. Roberts that unless they left the first floor as the manager had requested he would be compelled to arrest them.
While Dr. and Mrs. Roberts were leaving the theatre Manager Carr of-
fered to either exchange their tickets for the baleony or give them back their money, but both propositions were refused and the couple kept the coupons.
The next day Counsellor L. C. Collins was told of the outrage and retained as counsel. He at once investigated the ejection of Dr. and Mrs. Roberts from the New York Theatre and secured sufficient proof that the couple had been discriminated against on account of color before bringing suit.
During the trial of the case before Judge Murray the defense sought to show that the plaintiff had not been evicted because of her color and made a number of statements which the court evidently did not value very much from a standpoint of severity. One witness, testified that Dr. and Mrs. Roberts were created because Dr. Roberts became bosses, while Manager Cair stated that he acted the couple to leave their estates because he was wanted to simply distribute the patrons throughout the house and that file requested that they go to the balcony. Counsellor Collins made Manager

Carr admit on the witness stand that in a conversation a few days after the occurrence that he, (Carr) had ordered Dr. and Mrs. Roberts to reave the first floor because of their color; that while he did not personally believe in such unjust discrimination it was the policy of the house, which he was compelled to enforce. The decision of Judge Murray is a great victory for the colored citizens of New York City, and is the first case in several years that has been decided in favor of a colored plaintiff who filed suit under the Civil Rights Act, Counselor L. C. Collins, who successfully conducted the suit, is of the opinion that any reputable colored citizen can recover judgment for being discriminated against in the theatres of New York because of color the same as Mrs. Roberts if the proper evidence is secured and presented to substantiate the allegations made in the petition asking for damages.
It is not necessary to inform the colored citizens of New York that Judge Murray is a learned judge who is not swayed by political influence or color prejudice. His decision in the Roberts case shows him to be fair and impartial and one who reflects great credit on the judiciary of New York.
Dr. and Mrs. Roberts, of course, come in for congratulations. Instead of spending their time telling friends and acquaintances of the humiliation to which they were submitted, they availed themselves of the opportunity afforded all citizens of color in New York and aired their differences in court. The respect for the colored citizens of Greater New York will be greatly increased when the whites learn that the members of the race have made up their minds to take advantage of the laws passed prescribing against discrimination instead of showing their resentment in talk! talk! talk!
Harry A. Levy, assistant manager of the Lyric Theatre, was arrested Monday at the instance of Deputy Assistant Attorney McDougal for violating Section 514 of the Penal/Law of the State of New York, which prohibits discrimination in the theaters, etc. on account of color. The complainant is Louis F. Baldwin, a colored real estate operator, who resides at 8 West 132d street. Levy's bond was fixed at $500 and his case will be called for trial in the
COUNSELLER I. C. COLLINS
Who Represented Haitie Roberts in Court
Magistrate's Court, 314 West 54th street, Thursday, November 2.
The section which Levy is charged with violating reads in part:
A person who excludes a citizen of this state by reason of race, color or previous condition of servitude from the equal enjoyment of any condition, facility or privilege furnished by any express or managerial care or by teachers, managers or lessors of theatres or other places of amusement, or by teachers and officers of common schools and public institutions of learning, or 'by cemetery associations, is guilty of a misdemeanor punishable by a fine of not less than fifty dollars or more than five hundred 'dollars.
Prior to October 13 Mr. Baldwin sent a messenger to the Lyric Theatre and purchased two tickets, calling for seats in the orchestra, for which he paid $2. "On the evening of October 13 he entered the theatre with Miss Jennie A. Green of Jersey City shortly before the hour at which the performance was advertised to be given. They were shifted from one usher to another, all of whom declined to seat them, and the head usher sought to take the tickets from Mr. Baldwin by force, tearing one in half.
Mr. Baldwin, in company with Miss Green, went to the box office and complained to Levy, who stated that he was assistant treasurer of the theatre, and that it was not the custom of the Lyric or of any other first class theatre in the City of New York to permit colored people to occupy seats in the orchestra, that if Mr. Baldwin so desired he might have the $4 which he had paid for the tickets of he might make an exchange and take seats in any other part of the theatre and the difference between the orchestra seats which he had purchased and the seats which he might occupy would be retarded to him.
Mr. Baldwin declined to exchange

the seats and visited the District Attorney's office, where complaint was made against the defendant to the District Attorney and the matter was assigned to Deputy Assistant District Attorney McDougal, who caused Levy's arrest.
* While the law which Levy is charged with violating upon its face seems clear, proceedings heretofore of a criminal nature have not had satisfactory results. In many cases warrants were refused by the City Magistrates having jurisdiction of such cases. If a conviction is had in this case, it is said that it will be the first case in New York City to end so satisfactorily to the colored citizens.

Monday evening, October 23, the Howard Theatre opened under new management with a "monster bill" in polite vaudeville. Manager Andrew J. Thomas has exhibited a true sense of nerve as well as patriotism in the matter of leasing this theatre for the period of ten years, in so far as it has seemed to be an elephant on the hands of the owners since its erection. The S. R. O. sign was displayed long before the curtain was raised for the first performance and was shown during the entire evening. Just before the programme began the Owl Club of Washington presented the new manager with a beautiful horseshoe wreath of pink and white carnations and red roses, bearing the following inscription: "Success to Our New Manager." The presentation speech was made by R. W. Thompson.
The bill was opened by Hayes and Peat, whose clever work easily won a hearty stamp of approval. The American Venus, Mrs. Frede West and company (white) in Electrapose were second. Their act went big. The Three Mitchells came in third place on the bill and their lively work in a whirlwind of fun won for them a storm of applause. The work of the second and third numbers on the bill was something different from what has been seen in this city in a long time. A new and thrilling feature of the bill were the roller cyclists, consisting of Hardy Jackson, the 100-mile roller champion of the world, and George Harris, the roller champion of Pennsylvania. The bill was closed by Jens Moe and Moore. This city playing for seven consecutive weeks. Judging from the applause they received they were the hit of the bill. On the whole, it was one of the most well-balanced vaudeville bills ever witnessed in this theatre.
The bill at the Dabney Theatre was a good one. It consisted of Miss Joan Kelly, contralto, who sang nicely; Ed. Toliver, black-face, comedian, who played a return engagement, and Melgula Gonzez, a native of Havana, Cuba, who sang many sweet songs in Spanish and danced nicely. Miss Gonzez has been in this country but three weeks.
James Lee is assistant electrician at the Howard Theatre.
After the close of the Howard Theatre Monday night the Owl Club gave a banquet in honor of Andrew J. Thomas, the new manager. A summertime was enjoyed and the banquets included much speechmaking. Among those guests were Messrs. Alexander Henson, Humpton Curtis, Louis A. Mitchell, Col. R. Rhone, W. J. Reeves, Col. R. Thompson, T. L. Desmond, Anthony Johnson, Ed. Winston, Felix Cole, Lew W. Henry, W. P. Bayless, William Nixon, W. E. Barnes, Freeman R. Jones, Rufus Byars, Charles Dogan, Anthony Williams, Lester Johnson, J. Smith and George Taylor.
The life motion pictures at the Hinwatha Theatre are quite a valuable feature in assisting the teachers of history and literature in the schools of this city. Famous plays and battles are exhibited in photoplay, which gives them a great opportunity to comprehend more fully the works of the subjects displayed.

IN THE WORLD OF SPORT
By LESTER A. WALTON
Lloyd Writes from Florida.
Capt. John H. Lloyd, of the Lincoln Giants, writes that he is in Palatina, Fla., where the sun is shining on both sides of the street, and that the weather is so balmy he feels like playing ball. He has received a communication from the manager of the Havana team, and the Cubans want the heavy-hitting shortstop to play on the Havann team during the winter. Lloyd will very likely remain in Florida and play in the hotel league.
Howard, 26; Annapolis, 0.
Howard Varsity opened up its football season last Saturday with an easy victory of 28-0 over Annapolis. It was a great victory for Howard. From the time that Perry Bell received the kick-off until the game stopped, Howard actually swept Annapolis off her feet, outplaying and outclassing her lighter opponents in every angle of the game. Many sensational plays were by Howard. Forbes with a 45 and 8-yard run through Annapolis's broken field for touchdowns was easily the star of the game. The playing of Captain Gray, Nixon, Oliver, Schlaugh-Brice and Beamon was also of high calf. Howard's line served as a stonewall, and it was utterly impossible for Annapolis to penetrate it. Gray, Forbes and Nixon forre through Annapolis' line at will for gains of from five to fifteen yards Oliver and Schlaugh made many beautiful end runs. The game as a whole was good practice for Howard, and showed the strong and weak points of the team.
Howard. plays Hampton November 10 at Hampton; Shaw at Howard on November 18, and Lincoln on Thanksgiving Day. Much interest is being manifested in the coming game with Lincoln. Every care will be taken to make this game a great success. Hundreds will go to Washington from the East and the Northeast to see these great rivals in action. Don't fall to see this great game. Write for your tickets at once and be present Thanksgiving Day to see the greatest teams of our race in action.

DR. WASHINGTON ON ARIZONA.
Dr. Booker T. Washington has an interesting article in last week's issue of the New York Independent, in which he speaks of the condition among the Chinese, Mexican and Negro population of Arizona. Dr. Washington recently delivered an address at the emancipation celebration held in Phoenix, Ariz., where he was royally received by the white and colored people of that section of the country.
The article follows in part:

shipped back to his fatherland in Africa. No one has suggested, however, that the Negro, while still living in the midst of the white civilization was so much of a foreigner that he could not be tried by the same law and in the same courts and according to the same moral and political standards as the white man.
"In the first place, the life of the Negro is so interwoven with all the interests arose from hopes and inspirations of the white man that it will be impossible to separate them. In the way I have suggested, even were it desirable. In the second place, no matter how much he may fall below the standard of the white man, the Negro has and desires no other law than that which the white has taught him to love and revere. However different the Negro may be in the color skin, he is not an alien in this country, and living in him and no ambition which, in the last, are not identical or in harmony with those of the white people by whom he is surrounded.
"The Negro, in the process of adjustment between the races, is getting into other kinds of labor. Several of them own large plantations in the rich soil outside of Phoenix. One of them is engaged in running a hand laundry, in which he employs, however, Mexican women to do the work. One of the three wholesale fruit merchants in Phoenix is a Negro, another is making money running what is known as a "post" store on the edge of the Indian conservation, a few miles outside of Phoenix. Another colored man is running a restaurant in competition with the Chinese and has succeeded largely, as near as I could learn, from the fact that he was able to furnish what the Chinese could not furnish—homo cooking. A considerable number of colored men have made money in real estate. Negroes have pretty keen monopoly of the barber business in this city. There are five colored barbers in Phoenix; one of them is to be located in the magnificent Adams Hotel.
"What is even more important to my mind than the successes of the few individuals that I have named is the general disposition among the leaders of the Negro people to consider the needs of their little community and take measures to protect themselves against the danger which is likely to them from the drifting class, who are a greater menace in the case of color than that of any race in this country.
"Arizona has, in one respect, all of the advantages of the new country. It is not troubled by tradition. It has no past to live down. Its people have no fear of doing or attempting to do

something that was not done or attempted in some other time or other place. I would not have people to believe that there is no social prejudice in Arisaona, as elsewhere in this country; but as yet such prejudice as exists has not fixed itself in institutions, and the result is that black man, yellow man and red man have in Arisaona an opportunity which, if they use it properly, will give them the broadest sense of that word for all time to come."
