That is not any wiltime—dare care what it is—that justifies a departure from law in the punishment of the person who is charged with guilt. The only way by which it can be suppressed is that some time we shall have men as sheerly and as governors, and as prosecutors, and likewise men as lawyers, that the men who are engaged in pulling the rope under, those conditions shall themselves swing by the rope—President William H. Taft. WASHINGTON, D. C., April 17—Since President Taft's vigorous denunciation against lynching last week at the Metropolitan A. M. E. Church, at a meeting held in the interest of Howard University he has received hundreds of letters from Negroes from all parts of the United States praising him on his stand against mob law. It is thought that the timely utterances of the President will have a tendency to put a check on the mob spirit which has been so much in evidence in recent months. President Taft told his hearers that lynchings are due to vicious public opinion as well as the uncertainty of courts, and that no crime justifies mob law. He said: "Now, take the matter of lynching. That, as well as the administration of our criminal law, forms a disgraceful page in our social history. I just think it is well to take a text be that subject. "Now I know that our courts are not perfect. I know that they don't apply the law with certainty and dispatch in the criminal cases as they ought to, and I believe that part of this departure from law is as the case in lynching and disorder, is due to the fact that courts are not certain and are not full of dispatch in the justice meted out in criminal cases. But we must not attribute it all to the courts. There is among our people a disposition to forget the sanctity of the law and not to know that no civilization in any country can live unless the law is respected. Now lynching is claimed, by some being justified because, as they say, it is applied only to persons guilty of one special crime that is particularly heinous to all of us. But that is not true. No Crime Justifies Lynching "Statistics show that lynching is applied to those charged with a great many crimes and the moment you transgress once and the moment that the mob acquires the wolfish desire for human blood, the example is dreadful to the community in which the exhibition of lawlessness is given. And there is not any crime (I don't care what it is) that justifies a departure from the law for the summary punishment by a mob of the person who is charged with guilt. It is one of the serious questions that we have to face in this country. "We have not among all of our people as profound a suspect for the law and the necessity of obedience to it as we ought to have, and that is part of the reason why we have this exhibition of lawlessness over the country and these cruel murders. For that is what they are, for it is so that a murder when four hundred participants in the killing of one man nearly it is accompanied by a great will move of good tice by reason of the fact that four hundred are engaged in such a crime. "And the only way by which it can be impressed is that sometimes we shall have men as shelters, men as governors, and as prosecutors and as judges who will see to it that the men engaged in killing the rope under those conditions shall themselves swing by the rope. "And in the hatter of lynching we need not sit quietly by and 1 those of us in any particular section are better than those of another section of our country, because that kind of lawlessness has shown its ugly head both North and South of the Mason and Dison's line. Wherever it occurs it is to be condemned and rooted out and this can only be done by developing an individual and public opinion demanding the enforcement of the law. And I hold that every one who tends to minimize respect for constituted authority and respect for the law and fail to follow it just as it is, contributes to the continuance of that lawlessness which we deplore theoretically but, I am sorry to say, at times we express too much sympathy with actually. "It is the courts upon which our entire civilization rests. It is by the courts that our individual liberty, our right to pursue happiness, and our right to hold property are to be secured. I do not know whether you have ever looked into the question to see whether in other countries than this liberty, and the right to hold property are held secure, but if you have, you will find that in the country where they are least secure there are declarations in the law that are as perfect in their rounded sentences (especially in the civil law, to show the regard the law has for the rights of a citizen) as anyone could desire. But the trouble is that declarations work on the conscience of the general legislators and in no other way, and if their conscience are not pricked to an observance of these declarations, why the institutions of their country' fade away and disappear. And this is what happens in so many of the so-called republics which are frequently nothing more or less than revolutionary dictatorship. Now there is a vast difference between their declarations (the wording I mean) and the declarations contained in the Constitution of our country, and that is the point to which I would like to call your attention. In our constitution we don't alone 'declare' in favor of the liberty of the citizen but we provide for the procedure by which that liberty is to be secured. Nothing the Matter with the Constitution. "Our constitution does not only declare in favor of each and every citizen enjoying 'life, liberty and property' but in addition to that it proclaims that the writ of habeas corpus shall not be suspended in time of peace. Now what does that mean? The writ of habeas corpus enables you and me to preserve personal liberty. If any person devises a can go into court through our agent or attorney and file a petition for a writ of habeas corpus, and if the judge does not issue the writ and unlawfully detains a citizen, the judge himself goes to prison. It is not merely a declaration but a practical instrument for aggrandizing your liberty. And that is the difference between our Anglo-Saxon liberty and the declarations of liberty which have come down to us from the centuries. They say you shall not be deprived of life and liberty and the pursuit of happiness without due process of law. They don't say that you shall not be deprived of your life and I; they don't say that you shall not be deprived of your liberty, but they say it must be done by due process of law. In other words our Constitution provides a practical procedure for the meeting out of justice to each and every citizen. And we, like our forefathers, should thoroughly believe in and insist upon the enforcement of this instrumentality for the preservation of the rights of each and every citizen rather than indulge in mere declarations. Criminal Law Enforced in England. Criminal Law Enforced in England. "Now we must return to the profound principles of the law that were adopted and respected by those ancestors of ours when they subscribed to the Magna Charta, and which have been preserved in England down to the present day. They don't have lynching in England. Now why don't they have it? It is because the criminal law is enforced in England in a way we don't have it enforced over here. They punish crime irrespective of class or cast, and absolute respect for law and lawful authority prevails throughout the country. We have written in our Constitution guarantees respecting the rights of the citizen, one of which is the right of trial by jury, insuring the citizen against improper conviction. "And yet this right is abused in many cases, for too frequently do we find murder cases being tried in the newspapers, either inflaming public opinion, or treating mankind sentiment in favor of the prisonism and often presents and flowers are sent to the murderer. When the prisoner is finally sent to prison it is usually after a long delay which weakens the cause of justice. In England it does not require four or five weeks' trial to get a man into jail or prison; justice there is prompt and certain, and that hand of justice breeds respect for the law. "But notwithstanding all of this, the law's delay makes no exercise for any set of men to resort to lynching; the law should and must be obeyed. Of course in this regard we can improve matters. I believe there is need of revising our criminal laws and procedure so as to make our courts more expeditions in the administration of justice and by so doing we will take away part of the excuse that is set up by those who resort to unlawful lynching. But on the other hand, the only way to improve people I don't mean we need depart from or change our form of government) is to improve and make higher the standard of the individual." Mr. Taft also spoke in favor of higher education of colored people, stating that the race needs them in the learned professions, the white educated class is essential to full development; and that the Negroes should THURSDAY, APRIL 18, 1912.—Crowned, all rights reserved. RACE DISCRIMINATION RAMPANT IN CANAL ZONE Dr. R. H. Boyd Tells of Outrages by U. S. Officials in Panama Effort will be Made to Stop Discriminations Made by Employees of the United States Government. Special to THE NEW YORK AGN. NASHVILLE, Tenn., April 16.—Dr. R. H. Boyd, secretary and treasurer of the National Baptist Publication Board, and one of the important officers of the National Baptist convention, has just returned to Nashville from a trip to Panama. He makes some startling statements with reference to race discrimination by the United States Government in the Canal Zone and says he is prepared to make affidavit, if necessary, to every charge made in the articles he has been publishing in the Union Review and the Nashville Globe, as to these racial discriminations. In a discussion with THE ACE correspondent Dr. Boyd said: "There is no place in Mississippi Louisiana or South Carolina where discrimination by state, county or individuals is as closely drawn as it is by the United States authorities on the Canal Zone. Railway stations, saloons, banks, United States commissaries, and even the United States Post Office have racial discrimination that are strictly enforced. This is not true, however, in the republic of Panama. It is only in the territory over which the United States has jurisdiction, that you find this discrimination. The lines are even drawn in churches and Sunday Schools, which are all presided over by white men. "I am not only willing to make affidavit to every fact I have stated with reference to conditions on the Canal Zone, but I should be glad to give the names of several of the leading persons who were involved in the case." Dr. Boyd is himself a lawyer. Dr. Boyd is a member of the Navroes of the United States and none who know him believe he would make such serious charges of discrimination if they were not wholly true. The drawing of the color line in Panama by officials employed by the Government of the United States will be put before President Taft and the administration, and every effort will be made to have such outrageous practices stopped at once. LIQUOR DEALERS ENTERTAIN Bumptuous Dinner Given at Hotel Marshall—Members and Guests Conference Impreving Tone of Saloons and Hotels—To Form a State Body. How the colored saloon and hotel keepers of New York City can improve the tone of their business and the need of co-operation to bring about better conditions were subjects discussed Friday evening at a dinner given by the Colored Liquor Dealers' Association at Hotel Marshall, 127 West Fifty-third street. The dinner abounded in many good things that would have tickled the palate of the most fastidious, and numerous speeches were made. James L. Marshall was toastmaster. The saloonmen promised to heartily co-operate with the Committee of Seven, the auxiliary committee of the Committee of Fourteen, in its effort for general improvement. Those invited to meet the members of the association around the festal board were Fred R. Moore, Rufus P. Perry, James H. Anderson, D. E. T. Biass, Charles W. Anderson, Edward E. Lee, James L. Curtis, Phillip Carter, and J. Frank Wheaton. The Colored Liquor Dealers' Association is an incorporated body and during the dinner the feasibility of taking in the colored saloonmen of New York and making the organization a state body was discussed and considered favorably. The officers of the association are: J. W. Common, president; S. Bowman, vice-president; J. T. Allen, secretary; Gibson L. Young, treasurer; Edward Johnson, sergeant-at-arms. Executive Committee: John L. Morris, chairman; R. D. Wilkins, J. T. Allen, Gibson L. Young and F. B. Woods. Other members of the association are James L. Marthall, Leoyy Wilkins, W. L. Page, Duffy 'Brothers and the Bowman Grothers. TO SPEAK FOR PRIZE Irida, N. Y., April 17—James B. Clarke is one of the six seniors of Cornell University selected to special for the Woodford prize in oratory. This is the oldest and most coveted prize at Cornell, having been established by Gen. Stuart L. Woodford in 1858, when instruction first began in the university. No colored student has made the stage since 1800, and Clarke will probably be the first to win the prize. The stage will take place on May 3, and Clarke 1. The image contains a black background with a rough, uneven texture. 2. There are no visible objects, text, or any other content within the frame. 3.

CONFIRMATION AT ST. BENEDICTS A class of one hundred and sixty-one, half of whom were adultes were confirmed on Sunday, April 14, in St. Benedict's Church, by the Rt. Rev. Thos. F. Cusack, D.D., Auditary Bishop of New York. At eight o'clock the procession of candidates made the entrance at the rear of the church to the martial strains of "Owens Christian Soldiers." First came the hearer, followed by the hearer. Bishop with his monetary attendants. Among these were the Rev. John E. Burke, Rev. Thos. J. Lynch, Rev. Thos. J. McMichall, C. S. P., Rev. Jos. P. Donohue, Rev. Thos. M. O'Keefe and the Rev. Timothy Shanley, pastor and assistant at the church. The Bishop explained the nature and effects of the sacrament of Confirmation and impressed on the class that the Holy Ghost was to come into their souls with His wonderful seven-fold gifts, to make them strong and perfect Christians and soldiers of Jesus Christ. "A soldier," he said, "is ordained to fight against the enemies of his country. A Christian soldier must fight against the enemies of Jesus Christ, and these enemies are the devil, temptation and sin. The arms of the soldier are the prayers and the sacraments. Therefore," he urged them, "to be faithful in saying their daily prayers, in going every Sunday to mass, and in receiving every month the Blessed Eucharist." Then after the imposition of hands every candidate approached the altar for the anointing on the forehead with the sign of the Cross, the Bishop saying, "I sign thee with the sign of te Cross, and confirm thee with the christ of salvation, in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Ghost, Amen." Then he gave a slight blow on the check and said, "Go in peace." The church was packed with a congregation that filled every foot of its creating capacity. The singing of the Benediction hymn was inspiring. NEGRO VETERAN DEAD. Special to THE NEW YORK ART. Boston, Mass., April 14.—The funeral of Capt. Charles L. Mitchell, a veteran of the Civil War, and one of the first Negroes to be elected to the Massachusetts House of Representatives, who died at his home, 24 Sherman street, Roadbury, was held Tuesday. The new Powdermatt Barrall officited, assisted by the Rev. I. N. Vincent. The interment was at Dover, N. H. Capt. Mitchell was born in Birtford, Vt., in 1829, July 1, 1823, he was illiterated as a private in the 55th Infantry, one of the two Massachusetts colored regiments, and by the next June had become a sergeant. In the battle of Honey Hill, S. C., he was wounded in the foot by a cannon ball. For brevity at that time he received a second lieutenancy. Returning to Boston, he received an appointment in the Boston Citizen House, from which service he did not retire until October, 1908, and made taking it necessary. In 1866 he was elected to the Legislature from Ward 6, Boston. At the outbreak of the Spanish War he devised his efforts to raise men and money for Co. L. of Regiment, MVM, and served service in aiding in the care of the soldiers going to the front and rearming. He was a member of Benjamin Stone Jr. Post, G. A. R. of Dorchester. He was married to Miss Nellie Brown of Dover, N. R., sister of Edward Everett Brown, a master of this city, and herself know WARDEN SMITH RESIGNS FROM SAINT PHILIP'S One of the Oldest and Leading Members Applies for Papers ELECTION STARTS TROUBLE William H. Smith, Sr. Said to Have Become Dissatisfied Over Results of the Recent Votry Election. The application for the taking out of the album in a member of St. Philip's P. E. Church by William H. Smith, Sr., following his resignation as church warden, is the chief topic of conversation among the members of the congregation. Mr. Smith is one of the oldest and influential members of St. Philip's Church, having been identified with the church for over a quarter of a century. In giving notice of his intentions of severing his connections he has created quite a furore. Mr. Smith is said to have shown dissatisfaction over the result of the election held last week when his son, William H. Smith, Jr., was defeated for reelection as vestryman. Two tickets were put in the field, one sanctioned by J. Eugene Mars and William A. Heyliger, and the other by Mr. Smith. The election resulted in the election of the candidates favored by Messrs. Mars and Heyliger, the successful vestrymen being Theodore A. Morse, Chas. D. Pedro, J. Eugene Mars, Claude M. Moten, William A. Heyliger, Clarence W. Robinson, John W. Givens and Enoch Newton. The losing candidates were William H. Smith, Jr., Francis J. Carmand and Timothy N. Knight. Although William H. Smith, Sr., and Francis H. Carmand were unopposed for church wardens, the opposition cast fifteen votes against them, which is said to have been another contributing cause for Mr. Smith's hasty actions. It is said that so chagrimed was he over the result of the election that on the following day he resigned as warden and later made known that he wanted to withdraw his membership papers. Members who are disposed to have peace are seeking to have Mr. Smith reconsider his determination to leave the church as well as resign as warden. For many years Mr. Smith has also been chairman of the church property committee, and it is said that he has differed from the other members of the vestry relative to the handling of the St. Philip property to 135 th street. William H. Smith, Jr., who was defended for re-election as vestryman is a son-in-law of the Rev. Hutchens C. Bishop, rector of St. Philip's Church. VANDERBORG-GOULD WEDDING.

Y., April 17.—Poughkeepsie had its Vanderbilt-Gould wedding in this city a few evenings ago when Miss Grace Neville Gould and George Clarence Vanderbilt, colored, were robed in wedlock at the home of the bride, 94 North Clinton street.

The couple left on their honeycomb. The groom is employed at the New York Central station in this city. JACOB W. MACK DEAD Well Known Business Man and Philosopher Dies After Operation—Devoted Much of His Time in Uplift of Negro. Jacob Wolfgang Mack, a manufacturer, who devoted much of his time in the uplift of the Negro, died Wednesday, April 10, in a private sanitarium following an operation. He was born in Germany sixty-seven years ago and was for many years engaged in many business enterprises, being President of the Raritan Woollen Company and treasurer of the Nathan Manufacturing Company. Mr. Mack was for many years a JACOB W. MACK member of the Board of Education and was especially interested in the work of Prof. William L. Bukkley and John T. Thorne in the evening trade schools, using his influence at all times for their improvement. For the past five years he was chairman of the executive committee of the Industrial Committee, the object of which is to open opportunities for the employment of Negroes. It was the desire of Mr. Mack to see the Negro advance, and only a few weeks ago he met the members of the Interborough, accompanied by Mr. Frissell and urged the selection of colored men asmotormen. He was a great admirer of Booker T. Washington, and was a member of the National League on Urban Conditions Among Negroes as well as a member of the Armstrong Association. Mr. Mack was a liberal contributor to Negro education and his philanthropy was of the unostentatious kind. Funeral services were held from the Temple Emanuel, Sunday, the Rev. Samuel H. Bishop officiating. MAKES DEBATING TEAM Georgia Boy to Represent Amherst College in Debate with Rhode Island State College—Star Football Player.

TUXKOE, ALA, April 16—Driving thing is in readiness for the International Conference on the Negro which will convene at Tuxhague Institute Wednesday for a three days session. Many of the delegates are already on the scene and Tuesday evening a preliminary meeting of the delegates was held in the chapel of the institute. The majority of delegates from abroad were at Tuesday evening's preliminary meeting of the conference. They have been spending a large part of their time looking into the work in the shops and the class rooms and studying some of the unusual subjects they find in operation at Tuxhague Institute for work among the surrounding rural Negro population. Thirty-six missionary societies, representing sixteen religious denominations and twenty-one foreign countries or colonies of foreign countries are represented either officially or unofficially at the conference.

Venezuela, South America, is represented by Dr. Esteban Gil Borges, Secretary of the Venezuelan Legation at Washington and Delegate Designate of the Government of Venezuela. A Distinguished African's View of the Meeting. One of the interating portions of the program will be the reading of the letters from the persons who were invited, or who heard in some way about the conference. Very few of these letters are of the ordinary formal sort. Many of them give interesting glimpses into the life of the native peoples and suggest something of the ideas and angel the black man's brain, in many parts of the world. For example, one of these rations that are stirring in the back of letters is from Dr. Edward Blyden written shortly before he died, an exile from his home in Liberia, at Sierra Leone, West Africa. Dr. Blydon, who was born in the Dr. West Indies and emigrated to Liberia, was one of the most distinguished and learned Negroes the world has yet produced. He was at different times President of the Liberian Republic, Ambassador to France, and head of the College of West Africa. He was a deep student of Arabic, and had traveled far and wide among the Mohammedan Blacks. He had a peculiar theory to the effect that the Negro could never be come a Christian because, as he pointed out, in all of the imagery of the Christian Church, the religious statuary, and so forth, Christ and the angels are represented clearly. There are no black angels, and for that reason, he said, the masses of the black people are not going to believe in the Christian Heaven. Dr. Blydon was inclined, in his latter years to the creed of Islam, which is strong among the native African peoples. He favored Mohammedanism, because it forbids the use of images, pictures or symbols of any kind in conspionment with religion. To Dr. Blyden, the significance of this conference seemed to be the fact that a Negro school should have become so widely known that without any one regarding it as strange or unusual, it was possible to invite people from all over the world to visit it. Dr. Blyden said: ```markdown ``` I am not sure if you on the important question to which you have been good enough in your place, I may stay.

LEIBOVITZ 203 West 61st St MANHEIMER BROS. 204 West 34th Street Or Inanitor on Premises President Taft Makes Another Representative Appointment. Special to THE NEW YORK AGR. Washington, D. C., April 7.—Another representative federal appointment has come to the race. It was learned Wednesday at the White House that William C. Mathews, the once crack college athlete and now a practicing attorney in Boston, has been appointed Assistant U. S. District Attorney. Mr. Mathews takes the place made vacant by the promotion of Hon. Wm. H. Lewis to be Assistant Attorney General. By this appointment President Taft has again shown that he means that the race shall have better representation under his administration than under any previous, and the selection of [Picture of a man in a suit with a tie]. WILLIAM C. MATHEWS Mr. Mathews is another proof that the President means to only recognize hearing Mr. Mathews is a product of Tuskegee Institute and of Harvard College. He was born at Selma, Ala. After his graduation from Tuskegee, being valedictorian of his class in 1897, he entered Andover College. He was very popular at Andover, where he was a star member of its football, baseball and track teams, and also one of the editors of the bi-weekly college journal. He captained the Andover baseball team in 1901, being the only colored man that ever held the captaincy. In the fall of 1901 he entered Harvard, and because of his prowess as a player was immediately taken on the ball team, and for three years was chosen short stop for the All-American team. Although a star athlete, it did not interfere with his studies, for he practically finished Harvard's four-year course in three. In 1907 he finished at Boston University Law School, and being admitted to practice the following year began his career as a lawyer. Mr. Mathews has taken a commendable though not an offensive interest in politics, and was one of the founders of the Colored Republican League of Massachusetts. To Mr. Lewis is due the greatest credit for this second federal appointment of a colored man for the Old Bay State. Ever since Mr. Lewis has been in Washington he has been urging more representation for his people in his home state, and through his persistent efforts Mr. Mathews succeeds to the fine position in the Department of Justice. And that splendid friend of the trace. Attorney General Wickersham, promptly responded to Mr. Lewis' request for Mathews' appointment. BOSTON. MASS.

The French Superior Council of Dancing has approved the Sherlock-inette quadrilade and disapproved of the bunny, the grigri and Couche-couche dances. What the Paris highbrows of fashion disapprove who will O. K.? It is now said that the two mountain outlaws who shot to death the whole court of Hillebrand, the grigri and Couche-couche dances, a persistent detective and blood hound hunt has been made by the officers of three states, have escaped from the mountains and cluded their pursuers. Three of the five have been captured. Will be a long time Virginia justice recovers from the shoot up the Carroll county Alens gave it. The Rev. Frank W. Sandford of Maine, "The Holy Ghost," who is serving a ten-year sentence in the Federal prison at Atlanta for fanatical religious practices, is being sued for $10,000 by one of his victims. The murdered Negro religious fanatics of Louisiana are also sued. Vulnerable religious fanatics in the same by whatever name it does business. Secretary Knox had a bang-up time in Hayt1. The Taft Administration does not appear to be afraid of the Negro question at breakfast at a Negro Court. That is much in those piping times when so many people are dodging the color line while insisting that they care nothing for it as a stumbling black. Why does not some Democrat in the Federal Senate arise in his patent leatherers and demand an attorney into the Treasury of American Treasury of State accepting the hospitality of the officials of the Black Republic of Hayt1? Gov. John A. Dix of New York, who had the name and the opportunity to be a great man in the National Democratic party before he became Governor, and that much smaller than his name and his opportunity, says he thinks that the Democratic party will sweep New York and the Nation in the fall elections. The facts of the situation are that the Koch family is a very small Governor of a great State. We could not care for him, if we desired to, and we do not because he helped kill "The Colored Regiment犯." The Panama Canal, we are told by Col. Goethals, will be ready for business sometime in September, 1913. The American Negro was allowed to have a small part in digging the canal. West Indian and other labor being needed to all the Colonials in need, that all the people along the canal route be driven out after it is completed and that the banks and country about it be allowed to grow up a dense jungle, as the best protection idea is both original and barbaric. Some men have a funny way of explaining why they do things. For thirty-three years Gov. Thomas Riley Marshall of Indiana, who is incidentally a Democrat, has been on the Democratic ticket, practiced law, and made money and fame out of it. Then he abandoned the law and took up politics. In explaining why he did it, Gov. Marshall says, "I respect what I did, I respect what I wanted to get into a profession where my conscience could be given breathing room, where I would not have to wink one eye at the truth." This is as rich as cream. When a man has a conscience, he must have his self-respect and into politics where his conscience can have breathing room, virtually jumping into the fryingpan into the fire, he is too actively Spinnyhy to be understood. If he had a conscience, he would be plain to us and to him, for therein a man buries his worldly ambition for fame and desire for cash. Gov. Woodrow Wilson of New Jersey, who wants to lead the Democratic modern hope this year, and has a good chance to do so, had his room at the Warren House, in Chicago, entitled "The Modern American with his letters and political papers captured." Political enemies are accused of the fobbery. Gov. Wilson is almost good an advertiser as Col. Roosevelt. By the way, Speaker Champ Clark and his hour dawg "would be the best Democratic delegates to the Baltimore convention so far as Gov. Wilson. If Gov. Wilson should be nominated we are sure that he could not carry his State. New Jersey's electoral vote will be cast for him, and he wouldn't it be just too funny for anything if Speaker Clark and his Missouri "dawg" should capture the Baltimore nomination! The young men workers in the New York churches are to have a summer setting site of their own. It is made possible, and financed in large part, by the men behind the Meh and Reliklon church. It will be located in Greenwood Lake, in Orange county. The Chautauqua idea will prevail. A summer place like that near New York will be a great treat for the young people engaged in active church work. The church cannot afford to have a long vacation from the city, and who do not find the amenities and serious occupations of the nearby resorts, conducted purely to money makers, to their liking. When the Negro churches of Greater New York combine in co-operative effort to better the condition of the old and the young of their people. They all believe the good things, the moral and spiritual spirit of the people, and there are united efforts could well meet for the good work with the expenditure of the same energy and money. The Republican State convention of New York met at Rochester last week and displayed a solid front for the renomination of President Taft, and against the revolutionary tendencies in the Republican party, for which Col. Roosevelt so conspicuously stands. The convention did not instruct in terms for the renomination of President Taft, but the unanimous opinion was in his favor and the four delegates and four alternates elected are favorable to his renomination. Chairman Barnes opposed instructions, as he thought it unwise to tag the delegation, so that it would be hampered by unforeseen developments at Chicago, and between now and the convening of the convention. The election of Hon. Charles W. Anderson as one of the alternate delegates is a great honor for him and for the Negro Republicans of New York State. The feature of the convention was the classical address of the temporary chairman of the convention. President Nicholas Murray Butler of Columbia University, who flayed the radicals and their isms at every angle of the argumentative square. His address was so pointed and incisive as to offend many who believe that the situation in the Republican party is so sensitive as to call for the soft answer that turns away wrath. In the course of his address Chairman Butler made the following striking analysis of one phase of the Republican situation, which will appeal to the readers of THE Age as keeping alive the lynching abomination, so that sober-minded citizens can see the desolation of it: "What these revolutionary elements of the population most dislike is the rule of law. They call it the rule of the established order, but they mean the rule of law. Their conception of government is a sort of glorified lynching, before which the achievements at Springfield, IL, or at Costerville, IA., would fade into insignificance. The phrase "due process of law" drives them to freey, and any judicial officer who, in obedience to his oath, ventures to declare the law to be something which is out of agreement with their present day propossession, prejudice, emotions or desires, becomes a tyrant who should be dashed from his place on the bench by the profoundly wicked instrumentality of the recall of judges. The process of impairment is apt hand for the removal of the corrupt or unjust judge, if such there be; the recall, be it remembered, is aimed at the courageous and high minded judge who defends the people's will from the attacks of the people's feeling and the people's passion. It has been well said that savages do not like an independent and upright judicial; they want the judge to decide their way, and if he does not they want to behead him." The mob wreathes of Georgia, and of the South, come under the head of the savage sort who want to behalthe judge who refuses to prostitute the principles of justice to meet the demands of their prejudices. The political mob in the South, which was allowed to subvert governments by violence and destroy the lives and property of citizens without due process of law, came over into the Northern and Western States after 1877, and has since eaten into the life of the Nation the poison of its spirit which threatens all parties with corruption and the nation with revolution in its basic system. There are many reforms in all directions needed by the changed conditions of our population, industrialism, and capitalism, but the changes can be made, as the Republican party has been making them since 1890, solely and solely, without destroying the well-balanced powers of the Government in doing it; and President Tait is the safest individuality in the situation to continue the good and needed work. --- DEATH OF JACOB W. MACK. In the death of the Hon. Jacob W. Mack, the race has lost one of its best and truest friends. As a member of the Industrial Committee on the Improvement of the Negro, he did most helpful work in opening up opportunities for the employment of members of the race, and it was only recently that he had gone to the Interborough Company to try to persuade them to employ colored motormen on the subway and surface cars. He will be genuinely missed by his associates' and it will be no easy matter to fill his place in the various organizations of which he was a member. China has a great future. It has awakened from the double night of ages. This awakening has been due more to the thirty years of agitation of Dr. Sun Yat Sun than to any other influence. It is one of the mysterious freaks of Fortune that this man who has done so much to make possible the Chinese Republic has no official place whatsoever in the new government. President Kai recently announced that the Chinese people would soon belong to the great family of the Chinese people, and that the new awakening. That means everything for China. In a recent letter to a friend Dr. Sun say he is sure Christianity will flourish under the new regime and the proposed plan should follow the lead of China in this matter. Indeed, the hope of the people of the East and Africa is to be found in their adoption and practice of the Christian philosophy. Asia will probably do this, but Europe will not. We will with the Mohammedan religion for death's head. We hope not. Gen. James Longstreet, Gen. William Mahone, and Col. John F. Mosby were among the contagious figures on the Confederate side who accepted the results of the Civil War in good faith and co-operated more or less prominently with the Republican party, General Longstreet as United States Marshal in Georgia, General Mahone as a Senator in Congress for Virginia, and Colonel Mosby as a special attorney of the State Department. Mrs. Helen D. Longstreet, the widow of General Longstreet, who is postmistress at Gainesville, Ga., was in New York last week looking after the publication of her new book, which she calls "The White Heart of the Black Race; or, Lest the South Forget." In the main, the South has forgot, and, perhaps, Mrs. Longstreet's book may make it remember somewhat; if it does it will accomplish great good. The proceeds from the sale of the book are to be devoted to the building of a monument to the slaves of the Confederacy. The New York Herald publishes the following as one of the stories Mrs. Longstreet has written: "Our race problem will never be settled in righteousness until the white men of this nation join hands as Christians and patriots worthy to enjoy the blessings and shape the destinies of this grandest republic do the earth, with no end to serve save the welfare of our great country through the uplift of that black brother whose keeper we are." But as citizens now of a common country the obligation is as incumbent upon the black as upon the white brother that they mutually consider themselves as the keeper one of the other. That is the cornerstone of the religion of Jesus and the Christian philosophy of Saint Paul. The two go together. As common citizens of a common country, it is no more a question of race, of color, of election, but of works. If this principle were more generally understood and practiced the world would be wiser and better than it is. THE ILLINOIS SURPRISE. Surpises are the spice of politics as tobacco sauce is of oysters. They are to be looked for when they are not expected and to be expected, when they are not looked for. When the interested citizen carries this attitude of mind about with him he learns something all of the time, and gets the reasonable amount of exhilaration out of it without which politics is a stupid business. Most citizens are capable of forming their own estimate of men and measures, or should be, and campaign frenzies are intended more to arouse the enthusiasm of the voters and make them get to the ballot boxes on time than to educate them as to the men and measures they should favor. Of course, with ignorant constituencies it is different. They do not understand men and measures when they think them out for themselves, nor when others think them out for them. The American electorate is made up of too many of that sort, of people, which the public schools are moving down and out by the thousands every year. The political surprise of the past week was the way the voters of Illinois registered their wishes in the Presidential preference primaries. It was not expected that Col. Roosevelt would do more than obtain a delegate here and there. The managers of President Taft were reasonably certain that the Republicans of the State would endorse President Taft's administration and vote for his re-nomination; but they did nothing of the sort. The State went for Col. Roosevelt by something like 150,000 votes, Congressman McKinley's district going down in the slide, the fact that he is manager of President Taft's campaign. The result was generally unexpected, and has put new ginger in Col. Roosevelt's prospects and campaign oratory. The other surprise was that Speaker Champ Clark and his "Houn dowg" of Missouri carried the State with a sweep, as against Gov. Woodrow Wilson of New Jersey, in the Democratic primaries. Gov. Wilson, who had his suit case stolen from him in Chicago just before the primaries, was sure that Illinois was safe for him. As a result of the Illinois voting Republicans in all sections of the country have been thrown into a state of mind. The discontent in the party has been emphasized in a way not to be disregarded. The nomination of Col. Roosevelt has not been made any more probable, but it indicates that the Progressives will have a voice in determining the candidates and platform of the Chicago convention that will be embarrassing for President Taft and those Republicans who believe with Chairman William Barnes of the New York Republican State Committee that the Republican, party should stick to oldtime Republican principles and methods and men and not go a gadding after new principles and methods and men. ```markdown ``` It is a great satisfaction to know that the work of the Young Men's and Young Women's Christian Associations of New York is in a fair way to have adequate housing and financial support for running and exercising, and to enjoy the work are deserving of all the encouragement and support they need for their work. It has become unacceptable, not only in the Southern States but in the Northern and Western States, for the police and others interested in criminal prosecutions, when their Sherlock Holmes wit fail to enable them to unravel the mystery, to suspect the Negro in the situation, or all of them, and to treat them accordingly. Some very ugly instances of injustice even in New York have resulted from this way of getting at the cause of crimes. A person placed under suspicion, although the outcome may result in the establishment of innocence, is never the same any more, either with himself or in the estimation of the employer. If the position is lost as the result of the groundless suspicion, when employment is sought of others, the brow goes up and the exclamation is fired at the victim: "Oh, you are that person suspected of robbing Mrs. Smith!" That settles it. A person suspected of anything out of the ordinary has a hard time of it to get work or to escape the lynx-eved police Aiken, S. C., is a fashionable resort ot wealthy people of New York and other Eastern cities. A few years ago it was a blur on the map. Now, it has become as fashionable and exclusive as Lakewood, in the New Jersey pines, or Lenox in the Berkshire hills. Not long ago Mrs. Frederick O. Beach, of the Vanderbilt set, of New York, was assaulted and robbed on her own premises at Aiken. The outrage attracted the widest publicity. It was stoutly maintained by all of the parties concerned that the outrage was committed by a Negro, and the officials of Aiken were roundly scored and abused because they could not trace the guilty Negro to his hiding place. All the Negroes in Aiken were put under suspicion. After awhile the Beaches dropped the case, with a slur at the officials of Aiken for failure to protect Winter residents from Negro depredators, and the announcement was made that they were going to Europe. The Negro in the wood pile was there all right, but he appears to have been and to be the head of the Beach household. Here is a Sherlock Holmes' story for Sherlock Holmes. An Aiken dispatch, dated April 8, says that a warrant has been issued there "charging Frederick O. Beach of New York, with assault and battery with intent to kill his wife, Camilla Beach." The dispatch says further: This action grows out of the assault made upon Mrs. Beach on the night of February 28, when she was felled with a fence piling and her throat slashed in the yard of her winter home. It was said by the Beaches that Mrs. Beach had been called out to the gate by a Negro man who said he had a note for her, that she went to get it and that the Negro then slashed her throat and escaped in the darkness. A warrant charging the crime to Mrs. Beach's husband has been expected for more than a week by those who have been in the secret that the detective employed by the city authorities, M. S. Baughan, was still at work. If the Beaches cannot be got into the jurisdiction of South Carolina苏州市, Gunter says that Beach will be tried in his absence and a sealed verdict delivered to the Court. This is a nice mess for the Beaches of New York's highest society to be mixed up in, but the efforts to shunt it off some poor Negro, and to put all the Negroes of Aiken under suspicion, is too base and contemptible to be properly characterized. The Beaches, who are in France, it is announced will return and face the charges at Aiken in June. Meantime, many of the Negroes of Aiken are locked up and held as witnesses. THE MARKET AND THE BUY ERS It is no longer fashionable to go to market as in the old days, when going to market was one of the greatest pleasures of the good house wife, who had a liking for that sort of thing, or when she had not such a liking, of the good husband who had a liking for it. The market going called for early rising as the best of the market truck was to be had by those who got there first. But now there is little going to market, as in the old days, especially in the large cities of the North and the West, and not so much so in the Southern States as formerly. The corner grocer, laziness and the telephone have revolutionized the marketing habit, lessened the purchasing power or a dollar and inferrated the market products, which are often stale and ragged, thrown together in a hurry by the grocer and delivered in a hurry, or purchased at the store by the small boy or girl of the family. It is a pleasure and a revelation to visit the open markets of the Jews and other foreigners under the Central Railroad from 110th street, East, to 110th street, and the East River waterfront from 110th street to 125 street. a regular Oriental bazaar affair, where everything can be purchased, from a herring to a cow and from a shoestring to a whole house-outfit. And to watch the buyers, most of them women, and the bargains they drive, and the sharp tactics of the vendors, is amusing enough for those who have never witnessed market buying as it is in all parts of this work are to study the role of the persecution. The effort to revive the market-going habits of the New York women of today as it was in former days, which is being tried, should succeed, but we doubt that it will. We have a new condition in all things, and there are many respects in which it is not as good as the old. EDITORIAL NOTES There are 6,000 schools in the Philippine Islands, attended by 620,000 children, all of whom now know or are learning the English language, although many tongues spoken among the tribes. The University of the Philippines at Manila has 1,400 students. The Americans have wrought wonders in the islands, and the natives are being employed by the government in all manors of the Philippine government. Only the American Negro in the Islands is allowed by Government policy to rise so high and no higher. The Negroes of New York should keep on fighting for the Negro Regiment of the National Guard. The Jews are also after a regiment of their own, and they are the race one, and they should aid them to block the Jews, but insist that they have their claims allowed first, because they came first. The Jews will keep on fighting for what they want. They cannot do so also. That is the only way that people get what they want. Rev. William Booth, general and commander of the Salvation Army, who is 83 years old and resides in Great Britain, hopes to visit the United States again before the eighty-fourth anniversary of the war. "China calls to me, and before I pass away I must find men and money that the Salvation Army may play well its port in the Celestial Empire." The army is already doing good work in the Commander Booth has done a great and good work for the uplift of mankind. The Socialist Labor party are first in the field with their Presidential candidates. This shows that they really believe the dear early bird catches the worm. They hold their convention in New York City last week and placed in nomination Arthur Hammons for President of the Haus for Vice-President. The one is a Boston tailor and the other a New York stationary engineer. The platform, in proclaiming against the present industrial system, says "the Socialist Labor party raises the standard of revolt, and demands the uncondition" sundae of capitaine. "These new american capitals democratic than republican in their opinions, which places then at odds with our system of government. Should a wife receive wages for caring for her husband and his home? The question is becoming one of interest to all parties concerned, as women are increasingly dependent of man and the obligations of home, even as wives. The question has been made a running discussion for some time in The New York Sun, which has a knack of provoking the women. The Christian principle that the man and woman become one by the marriage relation, which the License of the state and the sanction of the church make binding alike upon the man and woman, insists instead that women minded by women rather than men. The man wants a home and murries a woman to take the place in his life as a man which his mother here to take the place in his life when the woman falls as the wife to till the home of the mother there is no place. Dr Ernest Lyon, a prominent member of the Baltimore Conference of the Methodist Episcopal Church, and who served as Minister to the Republic of Liberia, under President Roosevelt, was a member of the United States Congress, Mrs. Marie Wright of Baltimore, in applying for the license Dr. Lyon objected to having the word "Reverend" placed before his name, and it is said he refused to give a reason for the objection. The case is the same that Mr. Lyon objected to having the word "doctor" or "Reverend" before her name as our religious newspapers often do. We often come with surprise in such newspapers upon Mrs. Ushbish This, Mrs. Rev That, and Mrs. Ushbish This, Mrs. Rev That, and persons Ernest Lyon, the man not Ernest Lyon, the preacher, got married, No doubt the marriage blank called for his occupation and got it. Colored Bishops in M. E. Church. To the Editor of the Acr. Of late several articles on the election of colored Bishops in the Methodist Episcopal Church in the secular and religious press have appeared. The church now convenes three facts: (1) the church now presides over three facts for special service among their own people, which white Bishops cannot and will not perform; (2) the possession of colored men in the church qualified for the bishopship, and (3) race prejudice is hard to strong that way; (4) the church has two reasons for electing colored Bishops, and one feeling for not electing them. The family, the state and public schools, the church and all other educational institutions and forces available at an in-age age are employed to get the world on fellow reservation than feeling. The church, therefore, needs to be reasonable. The church is also primarily a spiritual institution. Incidentally it is a so- been the director of the institution, we have merely the rule of doing other secular institutions, including education and all other ill feelings. But the spirituality of the church has no place for them. Therefore, reasonable and spiritual men in a reasonable and spiritual institution dealing with reason, are not feeling, especially on occasion, in low feeling, especially a low one as is prejudice, to rule them in dealing with the questions of their institution. We do not deny feeling a place in the Church, yet we do deny it a ruling place, because in such a situation made up of men, especially in an institution composed of reasonable and spiritual men. In spite of our Church being reasonable and a spiritual institution, it is seared on this question, and it rests contended to treat its members of their inability to defend themselves, which indicates how cowardly men can act when they have a chance to so act. Its treatment of us in prejudice is not only unreasonable unjust, unspiritual, but its attitude, this treatment is wrong and defiant. It has no excuse to offer for being prejudiced toward us, and it feels justified in its conduct toward us. It has no apology for being prejudiced in the face of demanding an apology or it would make one and have an enlightened conscience, too. Instead of this, one of our "Bishops by arrangement of his church site as an institution of demanding sessions the public judge to be for tampering with the rights of his colored members, and when we ask for a member's right and a man's chance, we are given to understand that if we are not satisfied with injustice we may go. With a blush, a smile or with a frown it says to me you can't be Bishop because you are black, while to my eye you can be, because you are white. All editorials written in our church organs pro and con colored Blishops wind up in doubting our getting one because of the prejudice in the church against it. While an interested public daily says to us, black members, you will get no colored Blishop, and their answer to our "Why?" is because your church is prejudiced to you. Your winner because he is unreasonable, following his feelings rather than his reason. Condemn myself for like cause. I conclude by asking the church to deal with us in reason and from the needs of the work, and not in prejudice, and set itself right with its weak members, and just before a moral world, and have the approbation of the Judge of all the earth, or this may yet be said of you: "Yet come it will, the day decreed by fate; (How my heart trembles, while my tongue relates! The day when thou, Imperial Troy, meets in Kannar City. May 6, it will be a great day. And see the warriors fall, thy glories end. SYLVESTER H. NORWOOD. PURE, MANLY LEADERSHIP. To the Editor of the Ace: In a recent article in your paper, under the caption "False Leadership," in which you rightly score Henry Lincoln Johnson, Mr. Taft's Recorder of Doods for the District of Columbia, for having said, as reported by the Atlanta Constitution, "I long to see the time when every position of leadership in the Republican party of Georgia will be held by a white man, for under these conditions I believe every man would have an equal chance" you state a potent fact when you say for the past number of years the leadership in the Republican party in Georgia and other Southern States has been held by white men, and as Southern white men assume leadership the Negro is not only crowded out of conventions, but out of offices as well. With the exception of Lee, in Florida, and a few others holding less important trusts, every colored federal official in the South has been displaced by a "Lilly White" or a "National Republican," a term seemingly more cherished by Southern white usurpationists. National Republican means Republican for federal office and that only, as not one of them could be elected to a state, county or municipal office and their only home for recognition is at the nation's pre-counter. They are always ready to be sent to national conventions, to become national committees, state chairmen, referrals, for the prestige these places offer as stepping stones to federal patronage. But it is as impossible to get one of them to stand for any elective place within his state, whether it be for constable or governor as it is for a camel to pass through the eye of a needle. They just won't go against such a proposition, always falling back on what's the use, can't be elected, independent and an endless chain of subterfuges. And any national administration hoping to recoup a party out of such material can but fail no matter how good its intentions. They will accept all gifts Republicans offer but they are Democrats just the same, the sad part of this situation is this. A few Negroes are always on hand to aid these "Lily Whites" or National Republicans to rise into power at any cost to their own people. The present president, Andrew Johnson, people to abandon hope, ambition, aspiration and all other manly virtues for the mess of potage. Unite Curry of Texas, Cohen and Lewis of Louisiana, Irice Hill and Lynch of Georgia, Jones and Deveaux and Ricker of Georgia. White Cheatham of North Carolina, Langton of Virginia and scores of others who fought their way to the front contending always for a square deal and the open door of opportunity for their own people. This false leadership is responsible for every political loss the race has sustained in the South, but for it there would be race representation on the National Republican Committee. All offices in the South now fall to Lily Whites" or National Republican The masses are now fooled by this leadership but it isn't possible that they will always be fooled and after awhile the sleeping dog will wake and claim his own. This leadership but recently down a colored man on the State Committee and elected a white officeholder to the place. It may be for President Taft now, but if a host can be feathered when the National Convention meets and the real Taft men are not vigilant it will fly from him and vote for others as was done at the last convention. The Constitution created a mild sen- he said, when it happened to the company of the case pending in J. Davis in the United States Court. Many people had been led to believe the cases had been dropped and nothing more would be heard of them. But Davis plans a house cleaning bill that got to answer for all the corn which two United States Grand Juries allied to unlawfully removed from libraries he was in charge of. Speaking of Davis, the public is reminded that Mr. Davis was a John Temple Graves as being the great of Southerners. It was only a few years ago when Mr. Graves said in his paper that if this Negro editor continues to attack white people, some normal people find his printing effect the middle of the street in front of his office and his carcass at top of them. This grass enough said said what has been said of Mr. Graves since has been more than graves, and is twitching to a burrow manly underside. Keep up your flight and the race will rise. ARCHDEACON RUSSILL'S CAREER LAWRENCEVILLE, VA., April 16—The 9th of March marked the Thirtieth anniversary of Aredeacon Ruself ordination to the deconate and the Sixteenth of the beginning of his ministry here as minister in charge of St Paul's and missionary for Brunswick and Mecklenburg counties. Great and far-reaching have been the changes since he came. Lawrenceville was then just a small county seat town. The nearest railroad station, Emporia, was twenty-two miles distant. The present site of the school and church was a barron hill, covered with a sparse growth of stubby pines with a few oaks interspersed here and there, plenty of rocks and full of gullies and deep gulches. The space in front of where the chapel now stands was occupied by an old neglected grave yard with its usual tangle of shrubbery and rank undergrowths. On the whole it was as desolate and unkept looking a place as one would wish to see. The congregation, small, poor and struggling, had no house of worship. Except St Stephen's, Petersburg, there was no other church building for colored people in the diocese. The number of clergy but three and about two hundred communicants. That was thirty years ago. To-day there are thirty-three chapel, churches and preaching points, tea colored and five white clergymen and several lay readers ministering to these congregations. These congregations hold church property valued at nearly $100,000. In the counties of Brunswick, Mecklenburg and Lunenburg, more directly the field of the Archdeacon and where he has done the major part of his work, there are now flourishing churches, schools and congregations, where none existed when he began his work. The church was little known and even less understood when he began his labors. To-day it numbers its communicants by the hundreds in these counties, and its innuence is an ever growing and increasing factor in the life and ideals of the Negro people of these counties. During his ministry the Archdeacon has delivered 3,500 sermons and ad dresses, baptized 900 infants and adults presented for confirmation over 800 persons, performed 150 marriages and conducted over 250 funerals. In connection with his ministerial work he founds and is principal of St Paul's School the largest missionary and educational work under the auspices of the church and the third largest school in the country for the normal and industrial education of Negro youth of both sexes. The Normal School had its inception in the parish school started by Archdeacon and Mrs. Russell, January 1, 1883. At first taught in the vestry room of the chapel, one of his first acts being to induce the Council of Virginia to give $300 for the erection of a chapel, the school soon outgrew its quarters. A new building was put up mainly through the generosity of the late Rev Rr. Saul, of Philadelphia, Pa. By August 1, 1888, he bought the first parcel of land for the normal school at cost of $1,000, or payment of the thereof in payment as he had not a dollar in hand for the purpose and not a cent promised. Contracts were let for lumber and building material. Three days after the first contribution of $5 came, September 24, 1888, the normal school was opened in the School Building or Parish School house, with five teachers and less than a dozen boarding scholars and no money or resources of any kind. From this insignificant beginning the school has grown and prospered so that today there are over twenty five large and small buildings all electric lighted from the school's own plant, which also supplies the town, and some of them steam heated; five hundred students, fifty-five officers, teachers and instructors, four hundred graduates over 2,500 undergradates, twenty-three trade and literary division and departments, 1,400 acres of land, students from twenty-fold states in the union, and even far off Africa with a total plant and equipment with over $200,000. Most of the buildings including the splendid Memorial Church were put up by student labor of books and lumber, manufactured on the school grounds. GREEN AND JACKSON WIN. Knights In The New York Ace.

In some parts of Africa and South America the news that there was to be a meeting of Negroes and iriends of the, Negro irom all parts of the world has given rise to the. strangest illusions.

Following is Dr. Booker ‘I. Wash- ington’s introductory address to the conference: “For some time past, 1 have received an increasing number of letters and inquiries every year, from persons our: side the United States. who have wanted to learn something in regard to the work and_ methods of the Tuskegee Institute, These letters have come from many parts of the world: they have ‘come from missionaries in Africa. Aus- tralia and India, from officials of the Colonial Governments in Europe, and from all sorts of pergons who are inter- ‘ested, directly or indirectly. in liting up the man at the bottom in any part of the world. “I recall at one time that I received & letter from a man in the South of Russia, who wanted to establish a school for the Muzhiks, or Russian peasants. At another time, I received a letter from a missionary in the New Hebrides, who was engaged in teaching a type of black people there, of whom I had never before heard. In addition to these let- ters I have referred to. we have at Tus- kegee. every year. I should say. from fifty to 2 hundred visitors, who come here for the express purpose of study- ing the work of the school. “Sometimes we entertain visitors of that kind without knowing that we are doing so.- At one time we found that we had with us as a student, the son of a wealthy Chinese merchant, who, with- out at first disclosing his purpose or identitys had come here a¢ a student in order to get_acquainted with the school from the irfside:. with a view to cs- tablishing 2 somewhat similar institu- tion in his own country. efore, and since then, we have had students from India and Japan, who came here with a similar purpose in view. Vor a num- ber of ron past. we have had at Tus- kegee from 100 to 125 students from different parts of the West Indies, Africa, and South America, who have heen sent here, not_mercly: tw et an esiveation in the trades: such a they not have an opportunity to do at home. but likewise tovget acquainted with the plans and methods of this school, m order that they might he more helpful (6 their own people. cither ax teachers or in some other capacity, when they returned home. “J mention these facts here, because they indicate to my mind, not so much an interest in any one particular insti tution or in one particular form of edu- cation, but rather a very widespread mntest. in regard. to educational mat: ers in general. and at the same time, 2 hope and faith that there ase oppor- tunities for broadening. improving and applying education to the ‘actual needs of life, in ways of which we are just berinning to realize the possibilities. “This is the reason. | take it. tha: so many of you have come from distant sarts of the world; from Europe, from Africa and the West Indies. to attend his’ conference.

A, ROGERTR tig.’ WE 00 JOB ARNT BENCH REMOVES DANCING DOLL RESIDENTS of Cleveland, O., who are wont to pass the store of the Remick Music Publishing Company, located in the Public Square of the Forest City, will in the future miss the grotesque jumping jack of ebony but which has been prominently displayed in the show window for several weeks. Instructions were issued this week by Jerome H. Remick, President of the Remick Music Publishing Company, advising his Cleveland manager to remove the jumping jack with neatness and dispatch. Mr. Remick's order to his Cleveland manager to take promptly the comic figure from public view was done to satisfy some of the colored citizens of Cleveland who have not taken kindly to the jumping jack of jet, claiming that the act of exhibiting it to the gaze of the multitude was in the nature of an out-and-out insult to the colored citizens of that city. The Remick people assert that they first learned that some of the colored residents of Cleveland took offense at the dancing doll of dusky countenance and minstrel mouth was when they read in last week's issue of THE AGE that the Cleveland Gazette had published an article declaring that Jerome H. Remick & Company had a notice in its Cleveland window to all self-respecting members of the race to stay out of its song shop, with the request that all colored papers republish the article. Upon reading the article in THE AGE the heads of the Remick Music Publishing Company at once conferred with THE AGE and registered an emphatic denial that they had consciously done anything to arouse the ire of the Cleveland Negroes. They also declared that they were ignorant of the specific offense with which they had been charged. THE AGE, upon wiring to the Cleveland Gazette to ascertain what the exact grievance was against the Remick Music Publishing Company received the following wire: To the Dramatic Editor of The Age: Remick's Cleveland store has a very insulting Negro caricature in his window on the most generally used thoroughfare in this city, and insists on keeping it there for many weeks. It ridicules our people. They are very angry as a HARRY C. SMITH. Cleveland. Upon being shown the telegram from Editor Harry C. Smith, Jerome H. Benick, who is in New York, said: "It is gather difficult for me to believe that the colored citizens of Cleveland are wrought up over the little dancing doll in the window of our Cleveland store, as the firm had no intention of insulting the colored people. We have black dancing dolls in our windows in Detroit, but as far as we can learn no exceptions have been taken to their presence by the colored people, of Detroit. Our firm has song shops in many cities throughout the country and besides selling music we also sell postcards and trinklets. The little black dancing doll was put in the window of our Cleveland store to attract attention the name as we have advertised billikens for sale. It is never our policy to ridicule race." F. E. Belcher, local manager of the Remick Music Publishing Company, in speaking in defense of his firm, said: The Remick Music Publishing Company has always tried to treat the colored people fairly. This can be borne out when I say that we publish the compositions of many colored writers and accord them the same consideration as we do white composers. A glance over our catalogue will show the names of many colored song writers which should dissipate any idea that we are misinduced on account of color. "Although the article appearing in last week's Ace referred to an incident in Cleveland, yet when read in New York and other cities makes it more than a local matter. There are many colored singers and music lovers in New York and we do not care for them to get the wrong impression about us." In speaking to the dramatic editor of Tux Acu, Mose Gumble, manager of the professional department, said: "Several colored singers have read the article in last week's Acu about the Remick Music Publishing Company showing some discourtesy toward the colored people of Cleveland and have asked us to make investigations, which we have done. We well know that no instructions had been given out from the New York or Detroit offices to insult the Cleveland colored music and were surprised to learn that the objections were based on the presence of a black dancing doll in the show window. The treatment colored performers receive when visiting the professional rooms of the firm should prove a good argument that we want to treat all right regardless of race or color." In commenting on the charge of the Cleveland Gouette last week, it was stated in these columns that if the Rem- YEA BO! CLEF CLUB (INCORPORATED) MANHATTAN CASINO May, 23 YEA BO! ick, firm was guilty of insulting the colored citizens of Cleveland that the colored people throughout the country should cease to patronize America's largest music publishing house. However, after being acquainted with the offense charged against the Remick Publishing Company, I feel compelled to say in all fairness to the Remick people that the crime charged by the Gazette should be regarded more in the nature of a misdemeanor (judicially speaking) than an offense calling for drastic action.

Fifteen couples took part. CRE8CENT THEATRE. Chris Smith, writer of many song hits, and his comical partner, Billy Harper, were headliners the first half of the week at the Crescent Theatre, and won the high regard of the Crescentites as entertainers in new songs and old dialogue. While their talk was a trifle lengthy, they pulled many laughs. They went very big in their musical numbers. The two and three acts have a singing act that is bound to attract favorable attention. The act is well costumed and they are always sure of a strong finish, due to the disclosure made by the female impersonator. Prof John W. Woods, ventrilequist, returned to the Crescent Theatre as week for a brief engagement and enjoyed his usual success. I would like to see Prof. Woods on a bill at Hummerstein's say about fourth. He would "mop." The Whitman Sisters—Easle and Alberta—assisted by two energetic picks, proved a strong attraction the last half of last week. Marjorie Lorrain, formerly of Naugunner and Lorraine, is now dancer, single-turn. She has a neat act, she dances with her mother and her dancing at the flush, who applauds. IN THE WORLD OF SPORT Fair Play for Jack Johnson in New York. Speaking on the pugilistic situation, R. L. Goldberg of the Evening Mail drops the following gems of thought: The elements seem to be composing against the fight fan. The white hope question has been dragged around on the floor so long that it has become by its own mother. Just as the old Jeffries problem worked itself into a class with the "Merry Widow" wafts as an epidemic, so the white hope enigma is also enrolled in the medical books among the long list of contagious diseases. Now that Madison Square Garden has been taken back into the fold as a fight arena, the logical man to apprehend the feud is the real York Johnson. Whether they want him to retain or lose the championship, the boxing enthusiasts are desirous of having some kind of a showdown on the field. The great mystery lies in the fact that Johnson has not had a real battle since he came into the title. He may be just as fast and strong as he ever was, but he hobbling about on ever wary, clamoring for admission into the slimhouse. The idea is simply this: Johnson owes it to himself, his tailor and the rest of us to appear in a real light with him or a man of his own color, because—well, just because he owes it to us. He can get more money in New York for a short battle than any play else in the world. There is no reason to fear that Johnson will murder his opponent, even white hopes more or less. Johnson cannot be dismissed from the fight stage with a few harsh words. He is the heavyweight champion. But if the sports are anxious to see the title go to a white man, they should be into defeat for Johnson to fight his way into defeat which he must do in time. So say all of us who are desperately inoculated with the color prejudice germ and who want to see fair play. Since Johnson has been champion heavyweight of the world, his conduct, at times, has not been such as to entitle him to a raling vote of thanks from the members of his race, but it is feared that boxing officials in New York City and elsewhere are carrying the ball far. Those in control of the boxing game in Manhattan are evincing everything but a sportmanlike spirit when they seek to keep Johnson from boxing in New York. Thus they are filled with grave apprehensions that if some white hope stands before the champion he (the white hope) will be performing a FUN MAKERS SOAP BOX MINSTRELS.

From the present looks of things Chicago will not have a colored team in the city league this season. According to news from the Windy City, Frank Leland, who has had a club in the league for many years, will not put out the Chicago Giants this summer and has ceased to be a baseball manager. Manager Leland's baseball aggregation has always been a strong contender for the City League championship honors, and the colored team was regarded as the team that drew much regret is being expressed over the determination of Frank Leland to forgeake baseball. It is said that an effort has been made to induce "Rube" Foster to join the local league in Chicago, but the head of the Chicago American Glens is more deeply concerned about money than he is glory. He believes money is the key to success. Middle West he can have a more healthy looking wallet at the end of the season. Already he has booked his team for some choice dates in the East.

The game advertised to be played between the Smart Set A.

The contention raised by the Smart Set A. C. of the Wigging and Cooper were memories of other local quintets. Wigging played in the All Stars during the greater part of the season. As the teams were unable to amicably settle the controversy the game was called off. The Smart Set Midgets defeated the St. Lakes 21 to 12, and the Smart Set Juniors won from the Planets of Ossining 22 to 7. WALTER F. CRAIG DIOLIN STUDIO 488 Hancock Street Brooklyn, N. Y.

While the evidence was comparatively small, Professor Miller made a splendid admonition, J. H. Murphy, editor of the Baltimore Afro-American Ledger provided. The difference between the industrial and higher education," said Professor Miller, "is that the first develops an instrumentality and the other a personality. Through the development of the personality one is able to enter into those things which deal with the highest manhood. After all, only through the development of the higher order of manhood, will the idea pave the way for the amelioration ENBERG'S Hair Dressing Parlors BUREAU OF HUMAN HAIR GOODS IN HAIR GOODS A SPECIALTY In Pieces and Switches in Stock, and Made to Order.
