VOL. XXVI. No. 2. ESERT THIRD PARTY CANDIDATE And Moosers Announce Inten- tions of Voting for Job Hedges OPPOSITION TO STRAUS Progressive Candidate, for Gov- ernor Charged with Discharg- ing Negroes while in Cabinet US ACTIONS AT CHICAGO And Resolution Tabled at Third Party Convention Which Opposed Discrimin- ation Against Negro in Politics. Every Sunday afternoon the office of the undertaking establishment of J. C. Thomas, 89 West 134th street, is the meeting place for well-known Negroes who are deeply interested in politics, and despite the fact that the place is conducted in the interest of the dead, some very live issues are intelligently discussed. Men of all grades of political opinion are wont to congregate at the Thomas establishment, and last Sunday afternoon three-cornered discussion was held, which resulted in a big victory for the Republicans, as several Bull Moosers publicly announced that they intended to support Job Hedges, the Republican candidate for governor. Among those present were Assistant District Attorney C. W. McDonald, P. A. Payton, General Stewart and Secretary who were spotted by the Republican party; J. R. Baldwin, Baldwin and William Freeware who are supporting the Democratic Presidential and gubernatorial candidates. Taft, Roosevelt and Woodrow Wilson were highly spoken by their supporters, and each speaker felt confident that the Negro would benefit by the election of his candidate for President. After a lengthy discussion in which Taft, Roosevelt and Wilson were praised and censured in turn, the talk turned toward the race for Governor of New York, and the names of Hedges, Sulzer and Straus were mentioned. The Bull Moosers claimed that the Negroes should support Oscar S. Straus because he was an able citizen of high ideals, who had done much for humanity, and was a sincere friend of the Negro. "Soil" Johnson insisted that Straus was not a friend of the Negro, and produced statistics showing that while Secretary of Commerce and Labor Straus had demoted Negroes, discharged a large number and had always catered to those with Southern prejudices. Republicans Produce Damaging Evidence. Mr. Johnson was backed up in his charges by Gichirch Stewart, who referred to Strans' position at the meeting of the Third Party at Chicago, when he moved to table the resolution to disqualify him against the Nero. In his pocket Mr. Stewart produced a copy of the New York Evening Mail, a stance Roosevelt paper, of August 5, and read the following article under the caption—"Negro Problem Worries New York Delegation": The feeling over the Negro Problem is momentarily growing more bitter among the delegates to the National Progressive Convention. There is certain to be a prolonged light on the prosecution and the resolution committee over the attitude of the new party to the Negro of the South. Everett Colby, one of the leading New Jersey Progressives, is emphatically opposed to discrimination against the Negro and is working with Prof. Hayes of Cornell, and other men to have the convention go on record for the black man. Scores of prominent Negroes are here demanding a recognition of their race. The New York defense, sitting as an adjourned session of the State Convention, split over the question and tabled a resolution deal with the matter. Prof. Joel E. Johnson, formerly of Columbia, Prof. Alexander Hayes, of Cornell, and Dr. Henry Olozovitz came into the meeting after conference with Col. Roosevelt and presented the action of the convention, following resolution. The National Progressive Party recognizes that distinction of race or class in political life have no place in the Democracy. Expectations of the party realize that a million million people who in a great man's hands from now on are the labor system, established family/life, accumulated billion dollars of real property, including ten million acres of land and reduced their litteracy from their per cent, deprived them of their government. The National Progressive Party, therefore, asserts the Americans of Africa as the continent of its deep interest, welfare and in the gradual growth of his political power. had seen the resolution. 'Yes,' he replied. "I move that the resolution be tabled," said Mr. Straus. On a rising vote the resolution was tabled eighty-two to twenty-three. Apparently it was Mr. Straus' idea not to tie the New York Progressives up to any stand on the Negro problem which might prove embarrassing to Col. Roosevelt. PLAN WHIRWIND CAMPAIGN Advisory Disposition to Republican National Committee Holds Improvement Commission—Barnetters News Chapter of Various Libraries Lightning Bolt Distributed from Colorado Republican Club. An important conference of the Advisory Committee to the Republican National Committee appointed by National Chairman Hilles, was held Saturday at the headquarters of the Republican National Committee in the Times Building, when matters pertaining to the colored voters in the present Presidential campaign were discussed. Arrangements were made to inaugurate a whirlwind campaign in the debatable states. Reports made by members of the committee, from the various sections of the country showed that prospects for a Republican victory at the polls in November are growing brighter, and that President Taft is steadily gaining in strength. The Advisory Committee is co-operating with the National Republican Committee, and has the general management of the campaign among colored voters. Literature of interest is being distributed from the Colored Republican Club, 70 W. 131st stree, which is in charge of Fred R. Moore and Gilchrist Stewart. Mr. Stewart will spend a large part of his time at the club. At Saturday's meeting the supervision of states was apportioned as follows: Gilchrist Stewart and Fred R. Moore, New York, New Jersey and Pennsylvania; Harry S. Cummings and Dr. Ernest Lyon, Maryland and Delaware; J. L. Poues, Ohio, Indiana and Kentucky; J. Solomon Gaines, Massachusetts, Competitent. Vermont and Rhode Island; Hai J. R.

"The Negroes are making the mistake of their lives. The time has come when the Republican party is going to make the Democratic are their enemies. They had better make their peace with the new Progressive party. If they don't we will join hands with the Democratic party and disfranchise the Negroes in North. We cannot think that they should not appoint any Negroes in the South." —Chauney Dewey of Illinois. --- Special to THE NEW YORK AGN Chicago, Ill., October 8.—The cat is out of the bag! From the very outset it has been contended that the Progressives intended to do all in their power to disfranchise the northern colored people, and that they were exploiting the candidacy of Roosevelt in the interest of the Democratic party, but loyal Republicans never dreamed that they would brag about it. Chaucerey Dewey. Progressive National Committeeman from the State of Illinois. Director of the Roosevelt campaign in the western states, an intimate friend and personal adviser of Theodore Roosevelt, has onely threatened that the Bull Moose party will join hands with the Democrats and accomplish the disfranchisement of the northern Negro. He glosted over the unholy alliance between the Progressives and the Democrats, and admitted that his party was trying to destroy the grand old party of Lincoln and Grant. He used the threat of disfranchisement to clout the intelligent colored voters of the North into the corral of the Bull Moosers. Last week several colored men of local and national prominence gathered at the Progressive headquarters at the La Salle Hotel, and were discussing the political issues in an informal way. Those present were S. B. Turner, editor of the Illinois Idea; E. E. Wilson, a well-known lawyer and former partner of Edward Morris; Maj. John R. Lynch, U. S. A. (retired), formerly paymaster in the army; Beatregard F. Mosley, an active Roosevelt man and a candidate for elector on the Progressive ticket, and some few others. Finally Channey Dewey, who is director of the headquarters came in and took part in the discussion. Remarking that the colored people were generally fighting shy of the new party, Mr. Dewey declared with vehemence and striking his net violently upon the desk: "The Negroes are making the mistake of their lives. The time has come when the Republican party cannot protect them, and the Democratic party their enemy. They had better make their peace with the Progressive party. If they don't we will join hands with the Democratic party and disfranchise the Negroes in the North." "Vengeance as desire a pall fell upon the astonished colored men. It took minutes for them to transcribe to their minds what their ears heard. S. B. NO CHARGE FOR TUITION The first school for colored children established by the Catholic Church in New York City is located at 61 West 154th street, and is under the control of the Sisters of the Blessed Sacrament, which branch of the Catholic sisterhood works entirely among the Negroes and Indians. While this is the first school to be established in New York, this order has already a number of schools for colored children in other sections. An academy or high school is located at Nashville, Tenn., and industrial school is at Rockcastle, Va., and at Cornwell, Pa., just out from Philadelphia. Then there is a public school in Philadelphia, and the sisters teach in another school in that city. They are also engaged in the public schools in Chicago and Cleveland. The school in New York is known as St. Mark's School for Colored Children, it was opened on September 1, 1912, with staff of four teachers and an enrollment of approximately seven pupils. The curriculum covers the eight grades of the grammar course. At present all the children in the school are from the homes of Catholic families. The Mother Superior in charge of the school explained to an Age representative that while the institution receives only Catholic children at present, in the near future the door will be opened to children of the Protestant denominations as well. also expressed himself, as being well pleased with the outlook for success, which is encouraging. The children are prompt and regular in attendance, and apt in class room work. A high standard is set for the pupils, and they are required to conform to it. The conditions under which the school is operated make it possible for them to pay attention to the child's individual characteristics. Truancy is unknown. Absence from school is always accounted for in a manner satisfactory to the teachers. The tuition is free, there being no charge of any kind attached to attendance in this school. The books are furnished and all lessons of a literary nature are arranged with a view to engendering a religious trend of thought. In the reading, for instance, lessons are largely taken from the Bible when grades are reached which are advanced enough for the child to understand the subject matter. In the first and second grades, which are in one room, the little tots are given a great deal of nature work, and it is very interesting to hear them recite in unison simple verses which teach them some vital truth. Songs are also taught them as the lessons progress, and each song has some germ which is naturally planted in their little minds, and which will develop eventually into a gnide for action in their future life. The entire building at 61 West 134th street is used for the school work. The sisters have their home at 50 West 134th street, and here the people of the neighborhood are always made welcome in the evenings. In the neighborhood are a number of folks who have attended schools of this order in various other sections, and it is a source of great pleasure to these consecrated women to have these former pupils come in to see them and so keep in touch with the lives they have had so much to do with shaping. Visits are made by these good sisters to families in case of sickness and death, and aid and consolation is always freely extended. It is hardly possible to calculate the amount of good that is being accomplished by the development of this work. Reaching the very heart of the family through the children, lessons of sobriety and right living are incubated and an influence established that will last the child throughout life, and which indirectly is bound to have its effect upon the parents and older members of the family. Religious services are held at the St. Mark's Church, 134th street, near Lenox avenue, of which the Rev. Father Plunkett is priest in charge. This is the second church established for colored Catholics in New York, the first being the Church of St. Benedict the Moor, in West 33d street. St. Marks has a large congregation, and the services are always largely attended. A surplied choir is maintained, composed entirely of Negro men and boys. School work by the sisterhood among the Indians is quite extensive. They are teaching at Catlise P. Ph. and several schools are located in the West, notably at St. Michaels, Ariz.; Santa Fe, N.M. and Winnfield, Neb. The sisters engage largely in settlement work in the neighborhoods where they are located, and do an immense good in incubating a knowledge of the right principles of living. Visits are made to prisons in the different communities, and the influence of the sisters is exerted to benefit the inmates during their incarceration and after they have served their prison of imprisonment.

When this call was sounded Monday evening, October 7, in the halls of the Hotel Bellmen's Beneficial Association, 343 West 35th street, every man on the bench responded, because they all knew that an elegant dinner was to be served, and not a man wanted to be missing.

LEGAL PROCEDURES USER GRATTION ESTATE New York Women Appears on the Scenes and Pulp in Widow's Claim PHILAELPHIA, Pa., Oct. 8—Complications concerning the marriage or marriages of the late William H. ("Billy") Gratton, is delaying the settlement of his estate. These complications were brought about by the arrival here of Mrs. Lettie Mason Gratton, 86 West 130th street, New York, who claims that she was married to Mr. Gratton on April 3, 1886, at the parsonage of the Abysinian Baptist Church, New York, by the Rev. Mr. Speelman, Mrs. Lettie Gratton has been in constant communication with Mr. Gratton, she claims, and though he has not lived in New York she says he has visited her on a number of occasions. She is stopping while in the city with Sydney Purnell, 1005 South 17th street. Mr. Gratton's son, William Norman Bratton, is at the same place. Mr. Purnell appears to be Mrs. Lettie Gratton's adviser, and it seems that legal steps have already been taken to establish the legal rights of Mrs. Lettie Gratton. The second Mrs. Gratton is residing at 1552 S. Carlisle street, and the mother of Mr. Gratton, from Jacksonville, Fla., is with her. Mr. Gratton left a will and divided his estate to the second Mrs. Gratton. Expenses occurring from legal proceedings Gratton claims to be the mother of Mr. Gratton's son, Mrs. Lettie Gratton not having had any children. It is generally thought that fear of exposure by Mrs. Lettie Gratton, his first wife, led Mr. Gratton to commit suicide. The funeral services were held from the undertaking parlor of W. W. Caselle, 917 S. 17th street, on Saturday morning, September 28. This was in accordance with his expressed desire as shown in a letter left to the second Mrs. Gratton. The body lay in state at the Hotel Brotherhood Headquarters, and large numbers of his friends viewed the remains. "Billy" Gratton, as he was familiarly known, was one of the most popular men in Philadelphia, and his untimely end is deeply and sincerely mourned. The Rev. C. A. Tindley was the officiating minister and the interment was at Eden cemetery. The floral tributes were costly and abundant. The second Mrs. Gratton has expressed herself as being loyal to Mr. Gratton's memory, and will do everything she can to save his name from being mismerced. The matter will probably be thrashed out in the courts, and because Mr. Gratton's prominence and wide circle of friends, the proceedings will be watched with much interest. RE-ELECT W. T. BLUE COLUMBUS, O., Oct. 8.—At the annual session of the Colored Business Men's League Association of Ohio last week Nelson T. Blue was re-elected president. Nathan D. Brasher was chairman of the meeting. The feasibility of opening a department store in Cleveland for Negroes was discussed. SIR Bertender Aska Pflanzen Coin a Bleu Awaye Bar Awaye Bar a Maison in Dameville Not Want Negro Trade—Sebouls located at Eighth Avenue and Wight Street—Pressuations Lively to Follow. Beer, 15 cents a glass! Beer, $2 a glass! Sounds rather steep, but these are the prices prevailing in certain sections of Harlem when a Negro happens to be the customer in front of the bar. Persistent rumors as to the variations in charges for drinks when asked for by Negroes in certain bars upnown caused a representative of The Ask to make a short tour of personal investigation. With a friend, he entered the cafe at the southwest corner of 135th street and Eighth avenue. Several men were standing drinking and beer was generally the drink. Payment was made at the rate of 5 cents a glass in several cases, before the bartender approached the two Negroes. In a rough and abrupt manner he asked what was wanted. "Two glasses of beer," he was told. "Cost you 15 cents a glass," was his reply, with a frown, and he turned away, paying no more attention to the would-be customers. Leaving this saloon, the two men went directly across the street, and approached the bar in the Brighton Cafe, southeast corner of 135th street and Eighth avenue. Two street cleaners were standing at the bar, and they called for two glasses of beer, laying two nickels on the counter. They were served. The bartender then approached the two colored men who stood waiting, and very politely asked for their order. His courtesy causing them to feel sure that the report was not true about this particular place. The two men again called for "two beers." With a general smile and savest manner the polite bartender leaned over the counter and said: "Beer will cost you $2 a glass, boys!" The two street cleaners looked on with curiosity and probably wondering, how the two well-furnished and intelligent Negroes developed more courage to come, into that particular saloon, and feel great for beer. Such experiences in the saloon keepers, as is expected by those curators, already have begun to show about Negroes of New York the necessity of patronizing men of their own race who are trying to cater to their wants. There are a number of saloons in Harlem run by Negroes, and there are also a number of saloons run by white men who cater to the Negro trade. Investigation shows that the last-named class of saloons enjoy a large patronage from the Negroes while the saloons run by Negroes have to struggle and strive day and night to eke out a living. It is more than probable that a test will be made of some of these cases in order that it may be known whether the instrument is extortionate charges to a class of attorneys while another class is served at the same time at the regular rates. REV. STILES ABRESTED Wayman D. P. Wilson of Bridge Street A. M. E. Church, Brooklyn, Brings Two Suits Against Minister—Bond Is Secured and Rev. Stiles Presaches Sunday. Last Sunday morning many of the members of the Macedonia A. M. E. Church at Flushing, L. L. were ignorant of the difficulties that had beset their pastor, the Rev. Joseph Stiles, as he occupied the pulpit and gave them advice about living upright. Christian lives Little did they know that the Rev. Mr. Stiles had been arrested only a few days before, and had been help prisoner, until bond was furnished for his release by Mrs. Elizabeth Cisco, 54 Douglass street, Jamaica. The Rev. Mr. Stiles was arrested last Friday at the instance of Wayman D. P. Wilson, the young church worker who has been endecovating to secure the dismissal of the Rev. Mr. Stiles as a pastor of the A. M. E. connection for a number of months. Wilson, who is a member of the Bridge street A. M. E. Church, Brooklyn, was arrested several weeks ago because of the minister's desire to see him in custody, and the tables turned Friday when the young man had the Rev. Mr. Stiles arrested. The estrangement between Wilson and the Rev. Mr. Stiles occurred last June during the New York Conference of the A. M. E. Church at Binghamton, when Wilson preferred charges against Stiles, who was then pastor of the Bridge street A. M. E. Church, Brooklyn. An affidavit was sent to the conference substantiating the immoral charges made against the minister. The Rev. Mr. Stiles was not sent to his former charge, but was given a church in Flushing. Proceedings charging criminal libel and for furnishing information of alleged felonious character for publication in Tug Acq. were instituted against Wilson by the Rev. Mr. Stiles. How ever, on September 12, Chief Justice Marian of Brooklyn dismissed both cases, holding that the minister had no good grounds on which to base his causes of action. Smarting under the inconvenience that the Rev. Mr. Stiles had caused him, Wilson filled two suits for $5,000 each, one alleging false imprisonment and the other unlawful prosecution. He also demanded that the minister put up bond to insure his presence in the Borough of Queens, and the Rev. Mr. Stiles was Has Largest Circulation PRICE, 5 CENTS WAITERS ARE TO LIVE IN STYLE Hotel Sagamore Management Erecting Large Dormitory for Help MANY CONVENIENCES Building to Have 150 Booms with Toilet, Bath and Running Water on Every Floor CHAMPIONED WAITERS' CAUSE Thomas A. Madison Woodworker of Hotel Sagamore, Showed Management at Head of Moving Sanitary Quarters. Special to THE NEW YORK AGE. SAGAMORE, N. Y., Oct. 9.—When the fifty-odd Negro waiters and the other colored help come to work at the Hotel Sagamore next summer they will find that the hotel management has erected for their exclusive use a three-story building, 102 feet long and forty-two feet wide with, bath, toilet and running water on each floor. Every convenience will be provided for their comfort. The building will contain 150 rooms, and the size of each room will be thirteen by eight and a half. It is now in progress of erection. Thomas A. Madison, the popular and efficient headwater of the Hotel Sagamore, is responsible for the new quarters for the colored help, and has succeeded in inducing the management to enact a large dormitory with proper sanitary conditions after making regular installations in his annual report for three years. At the annual session of the board last summer the recommendations of Mr. Madison were acted upon favorably, and arrangements were made to start erecting the new building October 1. The argument made by Headwaiter Madison to the hotel management was that sanitary quarters for the help meant much to the hotel. He gives marked attention to the cleanliness of his waiters, and believes that cleanliness and economy are questions that must be seriously considered by any waiter in order to become successful. Mr. Madison is also a firm believer in rigid discipline, and any waiter who wants to work for him must conform with the following rules: 1. Every waiter must clean his teeth and finger nails before each meal. 2. Every waiter must frequent the bath tub after ball games and other athletic sports. 3. Every waiter must be in his room at 11 o'clock at night. 4. No card playing for money is permissible at any time. 5. All waiters must be courteous, obliging and attentive. Mr. Madison thinks that it is the fault of the colored headwaiter that colored waiters are not more in demand throughout the country. "I believe that if many headwaiters would drop their selfish ideas and become more friendly toward the less informed waiters under them by telling them of the importance of being economical their services would be more satisfactory to the average manager," he declared. During the month of June Mr. Madison holds twice a week what is called mock service, in which he trains the men relative to what dishes and how they should be used. He also lectures once a week during the season (which opens in June and ends the last of September) giving his men instructions in the art of carrying the tray. Mr. Madison disagrees with those who assert that the colored waiter is not capable of working in hotels and restaurants where the European plan is in operation. He cites as an example the 20th Century Limited on the New York Central, which has European service with colored waiters. The most luxurious class of people ride on this train, and no complaint is ever heard about the inability of the Negro waiters to give first class service. It was also powered out by Mr. Madison when that the St. Charles Hotel in New Orleans changed its service from American to the European plan a few years ago the colored waiters were retrained in the American breakfast on the American plan and luncheon on the European plan without a hitch. Mr. Madison says that the Negro makes a more competent waiter than the white man; that his memory cannot be beaten and if properly trained can creditably serve in any eating place whether the service be American or OUT OF TOWN CORRESPONDENCE KINGSTON N Y.

Whenever I speak of the race problem in a persuasive way, I am often met with the response, "Washington, Brooks, Duffield, Jumas, Puskin and others. But those men are exceptions, and the race will not be judged by exception—ifoo many of our young men frequent the stadium on Sunday afternoons, and drag down the womanhood of the race. "And the colored woman what shall I say of her? In all the world there is no highest sympathy and is before the best nurse in the world.

The men who did this at Baltimore did it to promote their personal ambition and profit at the expense of the Order, openly and unblushingly. At the Atlanta meeting no program was allowed to go through, the officers elected at the Baltimore meeting holding over by decision of the Grand Master to the meeting of 1914. Why? Because those who had hung together at Baltimore hanged separately at Atlanta. The Big Wigs had fallen out gmong themselves over the division of the honors and emoluments ofthe Order. F qe _, It remained for Mr. Benjamin Jefferson Davis of Georgia to Ynake it plain for the first time as he did in the exhaustive letter published in The Age of September 26, that “a gentlemen's agree- ment” among Odd Fellows existed at Baltimore and at Atlanta to “steam roller’ the situation, to the end that the men in it should have their personal ambitior and profit promoted at the expense of the Order. The statement made by Mr. Davis as published in The Age should arouse every member of the Order in the United States to-the fact that the affairs of the Order are in the hands, and will be for two years more, of as unscrupulous a set of grafters as ever looted a bank or disrupted a State. A million men and the, affairs of their Order at the mercy of two such crafty, dishonest and insolent men as Edward H. Morris, of Chicago, and Benjamin Jefferson Davis, of Georgia, will have no one but themselves to blame for the destruction of the Order if they do not at the earliest possible moment get rid of the conspirators and reorganize their affairs. Mr. Davis furnishes the evidence needed to justify such | procedure inthe following from his letter published in The Age | September 26: __ There was some disregard for instructions among delegates, but this disregard was not serious enough to in any way affect the result the people had @ right to expect. And to be.frank and fair with 80 per cent. of the delegates to the 16th B. M. C., I must confess I have no complaint. They did" not expect any opposition to me, any more than I expected it, for the reason a gentleman's agreement existed between the Grand Master, myself and every member of the Commitee, and we had a right to rely upon every member of the agreement as a geaticman and brother. We had no right to suppose there was a Judas or traitor in our camp, and for that reaton, no provision er cation was taken against the result recorded. ‘We were seialed because our confidence and faith in the integrity of our Grand Masser whe had begged his way into the mastership by,1 soleran promise and vew as 2 gentleman and brother. In 1910, he made known to his brothers in July that he wanted to gail around the world, and while en route, he wanted to set up several lodges, in foreign countries and de- aired to be the head of the Order ut that time, a¢ it weuld ansure him atten- tion that he could not otherwise obtais. ‘At that time, I-was the choice ef the brethren for Grand Master, but being a young man, I acquicsce@ and yielded to the wishes of my stajor aod ‘master, “Meariwhile, be had introdeced through Dawson Leite, No. 2456, the proposition to establish the Supreme Court, with the wnderstand- ing that if the proposition were adopted and the Court eatablished, he would net be a candidate for Grand Master in 1912, an6 would seek a place om the Supreme Court beoch, as that was his highest ambition. -He said he had no desire to be Grand Master for but a single term; felt that I deserved the place and ought to have it. and would stand loyally by me for his suc- cessor in 1912. I was not a candidate for the bench, and only accepted the place after insistence from him and the S.C. M. My friends finally agreed that I should wait two years, relying absolutely upon his honor and integrity. ; “The gentleman's agreement” to run the Order for the benefit of Mr. Morris, Mr. Davis “and every member of the Committee” was made before the Baltimore meeting, in 1910, and in carrying it out the Order was scandalized in the proceedings and split in two parts as to the Order. Mr. Morris got what he schemed for at Baltimore because all the gentlemen in the agreement “toted” square with one another: Mr Davis did not get what he schemed for at Atlanta because, why?. Let him explain in the following from The Age: . Ie was then about 12 o'clock. 2 asked him what he would do about it Mr. Morris said, “I will hold over. The title, I sgcured at Baltimore is better than any J can seciire here. There is no question on that title or its legality. I should hold the session a few hours longer and adjourn without x date, and by the authority in me vested, I declare that the-present S.C. M. shall hold over two years.” I said then’ that there was no need of our in- sisting upon a square deal. He said, "No square deal or anything else | appeals to me. Iam going to be Grand Master.

[f fashion decrees that we wear absurdly titting and looh- ing clothes, and” the’ clothiers have nothing of the fashion we destre, what do we do, bow ty the tyranny ant absurdity of fashion makers?

Broadly speak- ing,) much of feminine underpining is to .abaped that it should never be ex- posed in public, Their dear owners should keep them concealed until they shape up. Afid now men are threatened with the tight-fitting fashions that prevailed in 1870.9, A Chicago dispatch contains the “appaltieg information in the fol- towing; “ahibits dinplayed at the’joint convention of the “Merchant Tailors” Society amd the Custom Cutters’ League show that'men will not be permitted to wear what they please or what is com fortable. Form fitting coats and waist- coats With tight trousers prevail. Top- coats will be double-breasted, with vel- vet collars and edges. Collars, waist- coats: and scarfs of the most violent colors are proper.” What are we coming to when we allow the fashion leagues of the United States and Paris to forre upon us styles what are vulgar to the eye and uncom: fortable to the fecling! We once heard Henry Ward Beeclier say he did not need a big pulpit 1 stand before be- cauxe he had nothing to conceal, while his good friend.

Man's work is mine, the woman born: My burried way in crowded morn. Is true unwillingly each morn, I bear a hungry heart. Man's love and babe's life hath denied; No leisure can to give a crust Is mine; swept omen with the tide Of those enslaved by lust Of gold, or load unjust. I would not vie with men for gain. Nor in the sun of ease would bank; I who man's burden bear with pain— I want my woman's task. Give this, O Lord, I ask: "Does a business life unit a woman for the position of wife and mother?" So asks a distinguished colored journalist. Let's see from a business woman's point of view. The desire of the average woman is for husband, home and babes; she is the exception who prefers the nerve-racking strain of a business career to the quiet comfort of home—"where hours untold and peaceful move," and she is shielded from life's buffetings and its hard places. The average colored man of family earns barely enough to make ends meet, consequently the wife is called upon to supplement husband's earnings by her efforts, and the daughter of the house is expected to choose a line of work for her own support. Therefore, it is Mother Necessity which throws the majority of women upon the world and says "hustle or starve." The question now is "What shall she do?" Each year adds to the number of colored business and professional men who are needing typists, stenographers, bookkeepers and clerks of all kinds. Shall the colored woman eschew these positions because they are in man's territory? Very wisely she says "no," and is showing her good sense in measuring up to requirements and refusing to allow these opportunities (so hard to get) to slip to women of other races A. M. E, Churches Church Ma A. M. E, Churches in South America A. M. E, Churches in South America Church Maria Johanna Church Wakopam Church Wakenaam All Parties Making Bid for Negro Vote, But Majority of 50,000 Colored Voters Will Support Native Sen. Special to THE NEW YORK ACM. COLUMBUS, O., Oct. 8.—The colored voters of Ohio have a big opportunity this fall. No one believes that any party will have so many votes to spare that the 50,000 votes of Negro citizens will not mean anything. So all the parties are after this vote. The Democrats have an effective organization and are appealing to Negroes as never before, chiefly using the argument that a Democrat is all right if he lives north of the Ohio river. There are some Negroes who are politically ambitious, who work to use their influence for Willis with the hope that if he gets in there will be some nice jobs to hand and after the fourth of next March. The Progressives are after the Negro and say that Roosevelt is the man people and that he did not mean to throw the Negro out of politics So this mix-up of affairs is considerable interest but not real excitement. While there was considerable division among Ohio voters in the spring primaries, indica- tive are the colored voters of Ohio and by the Republican party this it is reasoned that while Presi- laft is not spectacular he is sin- they are reading of his quiet instments and learn that his record highout, as an American citizen, in the progress of the re- is consistent and trustworthy the masses of the colored voters of OHIOANS FOR TAFT. who should have no interest in marriage. Bemarkly, when college women had an opportunity the home they had to stick mostly to domestic service, but types change, and we are progressing and branching out in all lines of enjoyment as women of other races, and still do not purpose being unexposed by it. True, it may be that marriages are fewer, but if so it is largely because the woman on affairs views life with a clearer and broader vision than the woman who consequently remains in the home, if the man whom she can "love honor and obey" does not come her way she sees no reason to sacrifice her life and liberty for a shadow. Contrary to unfitting woman for marriage, business should make of her the very best kind of wife, for several reasons, viz.: She knows how uphill is a man's work and the worries that arise in business, so instead of "hardening her," it should make her more able to understand and deeply to sympathize with him. She appreciates the value of money, having had to carn it herself and knows that every penny represents hard work and should be allotted to some definite purpose. She knows by experience that a man may be tired at the end of the day and need the quiet and rest of a pleasant home for the battles to be fought on the morrow, and that he is not necessarily grouchy because he refuses to don his best bib and tucker and go "socializing." She knows that office hours may be sometimes stretched and won't fuss if dinner is delayed. She knows that jealousy is often foolish and will get her nothing, but may lose her a good deal. She doesn't make mountains of mole hills and worry a tired man at the end of the day with a lot of petty annoyances which she has experienced in her household routine. She also knows the need of a nourishing well-cooked dinner. There are many other good reasons, but, the above are sufficiently convincing to show that when a business woman gives her hand and heart to the man of her choice she is capable of making a first-class wife. in South America aria Johanna Ohio are far more interested in prosperity than they are in politics. They realize that never before in their lives has there been such general prosperity as now, never have they been so able to buy homes, furnish them comfortably, provide food and raiment for their children, give them an education, and lay by a few of Uncle Sam's good dollars for a rainy day. And this means much to the colored voter of Ohio, the thinking laboring man, progressive agriculturalist, and successful business man. They say further, that if it is political preferment Ohio Negroes have not fared badly. There are: Ralph W. Taylor, of Columbus, Auditor of the Navy; Charles A. Controll, of Toledo, Collector of Internal Revenue, Honolulu; H. I. Richard C. Bundy, of Cleveland, Secretary of the Legation, Monrovia, Liberig, Maj. Charles Young, now in Liberia, is an Ohio boy, born and reared in Zanesville Everyone knows that President Taft believes thoroughly in civil service. Under Republican administrations, the Negro has been given an equal opportunity in Ohio in the federal government and in all of the large cities.

In contrast to this the Democrats in the cities named, are turning men from the city government they had passed civil servantinations, and the Negro holds his position regardless. --- loved voters are broad and tho enjoy the inspiration of called state pride President Ohio man, and thus fact can- rhooked. the Republics carried thirty-five states out of forty-five, with 7,625 votes; 1808 found them, insofar their popular vote, and stated states added to their credit. Considering the wave of prosperity now overspreading the country, there is no need for a decrease. The people in this country are not ready as yet to place themselves in bankruptcy. To-day there is more money in circulation in this country, more work and better wages than ever before recorded, and, too, the farmer is receiving better prices for his products, and is finding better treatment at the hands of the Republican party than for many prior administrations. As the days go by it continues to develop that the people of this nation made no error when they elected Judge Taft. He stands for an honest deal and fair play. He is the spokesman of the party to which the nation owes a debt of gratitude for every great national law under which we have grown to greatness is a free people. We should be bitterly opposed to Roosevelt because, though, twice honored by the first office in the gift of the people, saved in the battle of Santiago, yet, he turns upon us to make us serfs and drives us from a council that heretofore he begged us to follow and hold up as a criterion of righteousness. Now, he calls us venal coward and black rocks—the ingrate is the meanest creature that God has ever turned loose upon humanity, so says the poet. That stuff that constitutes real manhood is lacking In the Negro who makes up his mind to support him. In them we have admired and allowed him to dence in him, made possible by his deception has placarded the American panthers with bold headlines "NO NE-GROES WANTED." But the Republican party still sails as the "ship of the desert" and glides with all alike. And it is confidently believed that the vote of the conservative and thinking laboring men will go to President Taft. The people, it is generally expected, will prefer to try the tried administration and hold on to the grip that has proved safe and trusty. It is largely conceded that result of the Democrats as from the Republican, Axin, straw votes count for but little and is no authentic test to be used as a criterion. Everywhere, North, East, West and South, our exchanges bring us the cheering news that the inconsistent "Teddy" is being dropped and the people are lining up under the banner of Taft and real progress who are following the footsteps of Lincoln and human uplift. Let the Negroes everywhere know that Gov. Wilson, when in Georgia, as a lawyer, sought to hatch a "Jim Crow" log on to the cars to carry Negroes his dogs and freight. He told Negroes and assured that everything that would humiliate the Negro. Since his promotion to the presidency of Princeton, no Negro ever matriculated, and if elected President of the United States it is farewell to the Negro, provided his recommendations are adhered; we know him; he lived in Georgia, in his beginning. ROOSEVELT LEADER THREATEN8 Together in speaking of the incident, said that it was almost dramatic. "Most Mae Lynch, who is a Progressive soul," this way be your position, "I will know that it is not the stand assured by God. Respectfully." "We are reminded the Dull Muses had I have had a personal talk with you that he declared that if he be declared man from the South, I have the Lord of the South, and Mae Lynch, I know that he does not know from the South." Well, we shall report to Mr Dewey himself until the month this remarkable threat may be by the Bull Masse that threaten the colored voters of the North was indicated in Chicago until moved to the talks of the town. People who had known Mr Dewey for years demonstrated the truth of the report. Several of them went to see him in reference to it and he repeated what he had said at the la Salle to them. FIFTY YEARS' NEGRO PROGRESS (Springfield, Mass., Republican. Now that the successor of Abraham Lincoln has organized his new party, his counsels purified of the contaminating influence of the descendants of the men whose emancipation Abraham Lincoln the first proclaimed, it is an appropriate time to glance in review at the conditions of the Southern black man at the outbreak of the Civil War and his condition of being a highly interesting figure to help such a review have been marshaled by the promoters of a bill before Congress asking for a $250,000 appropriation for a Negro exposition in celebration of the semi-centennial of the emancipation proclamation. The black man may have to keep accusing for some time an enlistment in the Union company a bull mose convention, but he seems to have done pretty well. The Negro, it seems to be pretty well agreed, is indispensable in the South, at least at the present stage of its industrial development. At all events that he has found a livable country there is eloquently witnessed in the fact that his numbers have increased from 4,000,000 in 1800 to 10,000,000 in 1910. Meanwhile there is not lacking evidence that in some outward respects at least the Negro has been more successful than that accomplishment is evidence of quality. Before the war practically all the Negroes were slaves and illiterate; in 1800 the figures show illiteracy among the descendants 20.5 per cent. less than that of the white population of Spain, Russia, Romania, Hungary and not a few other European countries. By war of comparison nearer home the still more significant fact is pointed out that in Pennsylvania the illiteracy of the foreign population has increased in 20 years from 15 to 19 per cent., while that of the colored residents of the state has increased from 20 to 15 per cent. This compares with its disquisition phase, but it is not at the expense of the evidence regarding Negro progress potential and actual. Fifty years ago there were practically no American Negroes in professional life; there are more than 75,000. Fifty years ago there were more pilgrims; now his descendants are more FREDERICK'S BAY MARKET HAPPINESS HEALTH Pursue. Cure. Grow. Readings.

I cannot begin to tell you all the benefits I have received since the arrival of the two specimens of Logistones you sent me. For many years I was convinced that no person lived who was more unfortunate than myself. Loss in business, death of loved ones and other troubles too numerous to mention, were driving me to a state of frenzy. A friend told me to write you for information regarding the system of two Loadstones and their power. As a last resort I did so, and later purchased two of them. Since then the great change in my career has been so remarkable as to be almost beyond belief. My business increased rapidly, and not a thing has occurred to mar my state of happiness. You are at liberty to use this letter as reference, for I believe it is my duty to let the world know of the wonderful change in my life, that I believe was brought about through the power and influence of two Loadstones.

I was all out of sorts myself and wondered what had happened to cause so much discord all at once. Finally I remembered the Loadstones and began to search for them. A few days later I found them tucked away in my machine drawer where one of the children had put them.

It is a little leaven, perhaps, to leave a lump, but the essential fact is that the leaven is working.
