Railroad Company Adopts New Policy After Committee of One Hundred of Jersey City Wages Vigorous Fight.
Management of Jersey City Restaurant Has Been Discriminating Against Negroes for Ten Years.
Special to Two New York Am.
Jersey City, Jan. 14.—The policy of "Jim Crowing" colored patrons in the restaurant of the Central Railroad of New Jersey, this city, has been discontinued. "An order was issued from the New York office by Vice President Better last Friday, instructing the manager of the restaurant to permit Negroes to sit wherever they desired in the future.
This change of sentiment is a big victory for the Committee of One Hundred, an organization composed of prominent Negroes in this city. It was mainly through the efforts of the committee that the Central Railroad of New Jersey issued the order abolishing the "Jim Crowing" of colored people in its Jersey City settlement.
So numerous have been the complaints made of late by Negroes against the unfriendly attitude of the management of the Jersey City restaurant that the Committee of One Hundred decided to take up the matter and wage an active fight for better accommodations. It was invited then years saw a manager by the name of Block first inaugurated the policy of getting cultivated people off to themselves, and that this plan to insult Negroes had been faithfully observed ever since.
Committee of One Hundred Visits
Officials.
Last Thursday afternoon a committee, consisting of Dr. George E. Cannon as spokesman, Dr. G. W. Hooper, J. C. Gunnell, the Rev. W. S. Smith, the Rev. J. H. Hudgins, Edward S. Lynch, A. R. Mayo, and C. H. Mullford, called to see Vice President Beaker in New York City. Mr. Besler was out, but his assistant, Mr. Dickerson, listened to the committee's protest, and for an hour the "Jim Crowing" of Negroes in the road's restaurant at Jersey City was discussed.
The members of the committee were informed that no official order had been made to segregate the colored patrons of the road, but that the manager of the restaurant had been allowed to use his own judgment with respect to the seating of colored people. Mr. Dickerson, said that there had been a great deal of trouble in recent years over the treatment of colored people, and declared the matter might just as well be taken up and settled for all time. The members of the committee were thanked for bringing the discrimination charge before the proper authorities, and Mr. Dickerson promised to take up the case in detail with Vice President Beaker.
Although the members of the Committee of One Hundred talked with Mr. Dickerson Thursday afternoons about J. o'clock, the manager of the road's restaurant in Jersey City had received instructions from the New York office by 10 o'clock Friday morning to allow all colored patrons to sit anywhere. Monday Dr. George E. Cannon received word from the railroad officials that the matter had been satisfactorily disposed of, and that the committee would have no cause to complain of race discrimination in the future.
$TH CAVALRY MAKES
GOOD IN SOUTHWEST
Letters recently published in The Age from Negro soldiers of the United States Army on duty in the Philippines have aroused considerable interest as to the welfare of the Negro soldiers on duty in this country. The result has been that letters of inquiry have been received by members of the 9th Cavalry asking as to conditions in the Southwest, where they are now stationed.
The 9th Cavalry is stationed at Doughas, Artz., where it has been nearly sixteen months. The camp at Doughas is spoken of as the best camp site from California to Texas, and the men seem to have become acclimated and happy. Some of the men are buying property in that section with the evident purpose of remaining there when their term of enlistment expires.
As to conditions in the camp and the general welfare of the soldiers the following letter from an intelligent and well-balanced member of the 9th Cavalry is sufficiently explanatory:
To the Editor of The Age:
Many of our friends have made inquiry as to our situation here in the Southwest. The 15th or 16th of this

EX-SLAVES GUESTS OF BISHOP COLLEGE
Special to The New York Times
Marshall, Tex. Jan 12.—To the delight, encouragement and inspiration of the young, and for season of refreshment and rebuilding because of deliverance from bondage, about forty were a special invitation of President Maxson, gathered on the campus January 1, and told of their experience of slavery days. These old people were the guests of the institution and had the right of way in all respects. Heated upon the platform, about forty who remained after their special dinner, presented an inspiring sight. Men and women who had spent a large portion of their lives on the other side in the service of their earthly masters.
The hero of the occasion was "Father Clark," who is 33 years old. Hale, strong and vigorous for their age, seemed none the more for the fiery trials, but the contrary objects of imagination for the care and preservation of their lives through hard labor, economy and service to God. These old people brought us the true history of the past—an written history—they may have sound philosophy, good sense and good advice.
Everyone who listened to the men who spoke to the students, faculty and friends of Bishop College can truly say that God has dealt beautifully with this remarkable who have lived for hundred years, who have American roll with only fifty years of freedom, and much less time of school advantages.
President Maxson told them to feel at home and express themselves freely without the least thought of criticism. Words of thanks and expressions of gratitude were returned to Home Mission Society of New York, and to the philanthropists of the North who came to the slaves in such a time, so full of need, and placed institutions within their reach and taught them "how to live and how to die."
Students Appreciative
The students seemed to appreciate the remarks of every speaker, and frequently they were interrupted with applause. And so the high-water mark of feeling of appreciation of Bishop College and a spirit of good cheer was renewed. Teachers and students feel more encouraged to go about their tasks in this new year because of the prayers and best wishes of these and women who were the students' guests, and who invoked God's choicest beneficences upon us. May their declining days, as a shadow lengthens, be sweet and pleasant, and may we of the younger generation find many occasions to do them all the good we are their days are quietly, gently adding by
About two or three months ago president C. H. Maxson reached the conclusion that it would be a good hear for our students and faculty to and about Marshall, some of whom slaves upon our campus. Such "tenors of experience" from those who had borne the heat and burden of the day, he thought, would be quite helpful to all. The Rev. J. H. Hudson, one of the old slaves who lives about a mile and half from city, was consulted and it was learned that he knew good many who would be delighted to come and spend New Years with the school, enjoy a "good dinner and tell about slavery" arrangement were accordingly made, and about seventy-five invitations were sent out by the president. To the delight and happy anticipation and fair. About 10 o'clock the expect- ed guests began to arrive—old men and women bent with years, some leaning on their walking sticks, some quite, feeble were escorted by some young men to the reception room in the young men dormitory where their comfort until the hour for dinner. While seated in the reception room, exchanging slavery time stores and the young women and men of the college walked in and welcomed them by shaking hands with and bidding them welcome.
them and bidding them.
About 10 o'clock the bell rang for dinner, and about forty young men and women of the past were accompanied to the dining room to a special table centrally located and nicely decorated by the Rev. and Mrs. O. R. Porteren. The menu for the dinner was turkey, fresh pork, strawberry sauce, potato salad, cabbage, sweet potato, white bread, corn bread (floured on Pep P.)
BACHELOR-BENEDICTS
HOLD ANNUAL ASSEMBLY
Invitational Dance Held Friday Evening at Central Casino
NOVEL DANCES INTRODUCED
Members of the Gentle Sex Appear at Sessour's Big Dance in Chicago Gown — Other Cities Represented.
The Bachelor-Benedict's Assembly was held at Central Casino, 154th street and McCombs road, Friday evening, January 9, and the affair was the largest and most enjoyable invitational dance of the season. The two assemblies given by the Bachelor-Benedict's have met with such high favor that the organization has decided to make the assembly a permanent institution.
Members of the gentler sex were present from Boston, Washington and neighboring cities and as usual the beautiful gowns worn by the ladies were very attractive and proved one of the features of the evening.
The order of dance was unique in that a number of novelties were introduced. In the "Bachelor-Benedicts Waltz" the bachelors and belles danced first, then the benedicts and wives had a monopoly on the hallroom floor to the strains of a dreamy waltz. As a fitting finale bachelors and belles, and benedicts and wives waltzed together. The "Cricket Two-step" was another dance which was greatly enjoyed. In this dance the gentlemen, each with a toy cricket in his possession, tried to drown the orchestra in their noise-making and at times almost succeeded. In the "Moonlight Waltz" a number of electrical effects were introduced. Music was furnished by the Douge Orchestra.
Luncheon was served by Mrs. Fanny
Jarvis at individual tables.

After forty-nine years continuous service in the country of the National Express Company of New York, M. P. Saunders, 20, Clifton place. Brooklyn, has been retired on a pension.
Mr. Saunders entered the service of the company in 1865 in the capacity of porter, but his ability and faithfulness won him promotion from time to time until he was elevated to a clerkship. He attracted the attention of the late Johnson Livingstone, who was the president of the company, and Mr. Livingstone recognized his merit and fidelity by making Mr. Saunders his confidential secretary, which position he held at the time of Mr. Livingstone's death. This relationship developed into a friendship which is maintained by the surviving family of the former porter.
Mr. Summers was also prominently identified with the civic progress of the race. In 1850 he became a member of the New York African Mutual Rifle Society, and has served as secretary and vice-president. He lives in his own home on Clinton place in comfort and happiness.

AFFAIR PRE-EMINENT The CHARITY BALL JANUARY 21, 1914 At Manhattan Casino
Tuskegee Institute, Ala., Jan. 12.—No visitor to Tuskegee in recent years has been more warmly welcomed than Watt Terry, the real estate dealer and broker, of Brockton, Mass.
Mr. Terry was invited to speak at the meeting of the National Negro Business League, session held in Chicago in 1912. At that time when he told the story of his success, there was some disposition to regard his statements askance. The Executive Committee of the League, however, went to the pains of having Mr. Terry personally appear before it so that his various statements might be verified, and to his credit it may be said, that not only did this investigation prove, the truthfulness of every statement made by him, but subsequent investigations, among the strong business men of Brockton, where he lives, shows that Mr. Terry had been more or less modest in regard to his achievements. The Executive Committee, through its secretary, Mr. Scott, made the results of this investigation: known to the delegates assembled. Mr. Scott's statement was, in substance, as follows:
In order that Mr. Terry might not be misunderstood or misquoted, both he and the Executive Committee desire me to relate and explain exactly what he meant to have you understand yesterday, namely, that he owns or holds a controlling equity in about fifty (50) separate pieces of property, and that these fifty separate pieces of property contain about hundred and twenty-two apartments; not that he owns two hundred and twenty-two apartment houses (for he did not mean to say that), but fifty pieces of property in which are $22 apartments, and that all of this property in the aggregate is worth approximately Five Hundred Thousand ($500,000) Dollars.

Booker T. Washington is Warmly Welcomed in New England
Three Thousand Girl Students of College and Residents of Northampton Pack John M. Greene Hall.
Educator Entertained by Dean Purington
—Third Address Made at First Congregational Church, Springfield, Mass.
Special to The New York Am.
Springfield, Ill., Jan. 14—Three current, disgruntled and fearful appeals, calling upon the American white people to treat the colored Americans as a man a brother and a christ, were made by Dr. Booker T. Washington on Sunday, January 11, in out of New England's great centers of learning; three audiences, unusually large in substantial proportions, most friendly and casual in their welcome, manifesting their interest and displaying genuine enthusiasm, listened to the leader of the Negro people convincingly tell of the wonderful progress made by the members of his race in fifty years.
Dr. Washington spoke at the Blythe College, South Hadley, Mass., in the morning, at Smith College, Northport, Mass., in the afternoon, and at the First Congregational Church of Springfield, in the evening. The expression of the eminent chaplet at the three large meetings was gratifying in two ways. Dr. Washington's mention made it evident that they were glad to enroll themselves in the opportunity at what he had to say about the
Makes Vigorous Plea for Justice.
There was nothing unusual in what Dr. Washington had to say. He did not appear in the role of an agitator, nor did he take up the time of his auditors in contending the methods of others who have their particular way of trying to solve the race question. He made a strong, vigorous plan for justice for the Negro, appalling to the hearts and minds of his hearers, rather than to baser passions. While he strongly condemned the many injustices to which the Negro in the South is subjected, declaring that there are many problems to solve in that section of the country and that much exists that is discouraging, he maintained that holding indignation meetings, constant complaining and inflammatory utterances were not going to ameliorate conditions, but aggravate them.
Throughout the South the people are beginning to experience in a very effective manner some of the results of education, he said, and the results are being felt in the life of both men. Education is being applied to the human interests and activities of all the people in a way not to be discounted, and the race is making great progress in the Southland in spite of the many sensational reports sent to the press in this section of the country, declared the speaker, who believes that time and patience is the solver of all great fundamental problems.
Dr. Washington did not confine his remarks relative to the effective work being done in the black belt by colored educational institutions solely to Tuskegee. Hampton, Fisk, Tallulah and a score of smaller institutions in the South were given great credit for playing a prominent part in making conditions better in that section of the country.
Royalty Entertained at Mt. Holyoke College.
Over eight hundred students and friends assembled in the Many Logan Chapel, Mt. Holyoke College, at 10 o'clock Sunday morning to listen to an address by Dr. Washington. Mt. Holyoke College is one of the oldest institutions of learning for young women in the United States, and only recently celebrated its seventy-fifth anniversary. In the absence of President Woolley, who is away on a short vacation, Dean Purington had charge of the services. The chancel was decorated with flowers, and a large choir, composed entirely of young women, rendered a special musical program.
After the services scores of students crowded around Dr. Washington and congratulated him on his talk in the interest of the Negro. Dr. Washington was the dinner guest of Dr. Purington, who proved a most entertaining hostess. At the dinner he met members of the faculty and others.
Smith College enjoys the distinction of being the largest school for girls in the world. The enrollment this year is 1,549, and a corps of 175 teachers is employed. There are 589 students in this year's freshman class. President
Eugene Burgess, although yet in his childhood, has around his inspiration to a high degree of diligence during his administration, and has received valuable assistance from his accomplished wife. He large was the audience that filled the John M. Greene Hall for veteran services, which began Sunday afternoon shortly after 4 o'clock, that President Burke made the announcement before Dr. Washington began to speak that no impure persons would be admitted, and requested that as many students as possible take seats on the platform. Over three thousand persons, including the students of Smith and residents of Northampton, heard the address delivered by Dr. Washington, and it is said that the only time that the hall has held a similar gathering was on commencement day.
Although Dr. Washington spoke for over an hour, he was limited to what best attentive attention he could prepare upon the hundreds of young women hailing from every section of the United States the importance of education for the Negro, and said that the Negro did not create for sympathy, but that he wanted justice—that he desired to be treated as a citizen and countryman and be permitted to assist in making this nation better and more powerful. Before veer services Dr. Washington was entertained at tea by President and Mrs. Borton.
All the available floor space in the First Congregational Church of Springfield was taken up Sunday evening long before 7 o'clock, the hour for the opening of services. The First Congregational Church was organized in 1637, and is regarded as one of the oldest and wealthiest churches in Massachusetts. Its present pastor is the Rev. Neil McPherson. At the beginning of Dr. Washington's address many were unable to gain admission.
The Tuskegeean, in his address, dwelt mainly on the great work being done in the Southland by Tuskegee and other colored schools, and for more than an hour commanded the interest of his hearers. For some time after services Dr. Washington was kept busy shaking hands and receiving the congratulations of those who had had the good fortune to hear him.

of War states that there was less desertion from the colored regiments
during the past year than from the
white regiments. That is to our credit.
I have served in mixed garrisons and
am prepared to state that the colo-
red soldier is more contented,
makes less complaints than white soldi-
ders, complains to the white soldi-
ders, and generally a happy
bunch of men if they are treated and
bad well. Extreme punishment is not
given for acts of insubordination.
A soldier prisoner is not munacled
unless he is a very bad man and has
made attempts to escape from his guards.
Many current magazines and our own race newspapers come to the chaplain's amusement tent daily and weekly, furnished by our government. We are glad that The Age is the champion, not only for KKR but for the man that is down." May others wield the same kind of influence. (Signed) OLD SOLDIER. Carap Douglass, Ariz. Jan. 6.

It has been decided to publish at Tuskegee Insti-

Negro landowners, tenant farmers and of those who
employ Negro labor. There is no other strictly

of Negro farmers. . ett
Many of the white farm newspapers enjoy huge
circulations and there is no reason why a farm paper
in the interest of Negroes should not prove equally
successful. In fact, occupying an exclusive field it
should enjoy a success far beyond that of the ‘usual
farm publication. Ie wpropoeed to‘ circulate this pe-_

MR. BOGENWALD'S BANKS FOR THE POOR.
A very great deal of interest has been transferred all over the country in the announcement that Mr. Julius Roseworld of Chicago is in Europe studying the banks in Italy and other countries that have been established to benefit the poor people who are not able to have credit at the regular banks, with the purpose of establishing a chain of such banks in this country. The Italian banks of this kind are paid to be among the best. The banks will be established in all of the large cities, and in addition to helping poor workshop and other people who used small loans from time to time, say from $10 to $100, on simple induction of note of promise by a fellow worker, tradesman, and the like; the new system is intended to kill the lucrative business of the "loan shark" who prey on the small borrower and make his life a burden, and whom the authorities of New York have been waging a successful cramp against.
Mr. Rosenwald will have the cooperation of Mr. Carnegie, Mr. Aston and other men of large capital, so that it has been announced that the banks will have unlimited money behind them.
Mr. P. J. L. Mathews, in a recent issue of Heaper's Magazine, talking about the Indian loan system, said:
Formal with limited liability, the issue of shares unrestricted the price must more than $00 and often only $0—there being the membership of every one from the line of payment to the edge of wealth.
Departing Sentiment being in a matter of financial statement and degree for its first service but for the possibility it affords to collective industrial undertakings. In no operative banking a course of settlement, not only of material gain but of character and the collection of the common man to the management and investment of a common trust.
We have no doubt that the new system will be a great success and benefit greatly those it is intended to reach. A great deal of want and suffering have been prevented among the honest working poor of Italy by the operations of the system Mr. Roemerald is studying and purpose to introduce into this country, and there is no good reason why it should not work like results in this coming.
The success which has attended banking ventures among educated people during the past ten years and only shows that they were badly needed but that the people were ready to sustain them. Every colored community of one thousand or more people should have a penny savings bank at least, and as many banks of deposit and direct as possible. The presence of a bank in any place is an indisposition to the people to save their earnings above living expenses who never thought of doing so before. New York is still behind even Boston and Philadelphia in this matter, and without any apparent reason.
After the show, then the committee
The Board of Publication of the AFR-
ican Baptist Episcopal Church has
installed Dr. Wright as editor of the
Christianity of the South Church, after
a three-year suspension of thirty days
in which to pay their debts in order.
The editor and manager have agreed to
respect each other and their rights
in the future, and the committee has been placed
in the chair of the Board for reference
and use. If need be, in more more
than just between them. Now let
me keep in mind.
For something the quantity for that people who have higher knowledge and more wisdom for women and womanhood than any other people we should have no trouble in singing out the Southern white man, because he makes leader and longer presentations about "respect for our women" than any other people in the country; but he is really the last and not the first to whom we should appeal, simply because it is not respect for womanhood that he has, but respect for his woman. That is to say, the Southern white man insists that everybody shall regard his woman as entirely ethereal and not made out of common earth at all, while he leaves himself free to regard other men's women as he pleases, often with the contempt and discourtesy that lead directly to bloody and justifiable murder of him.
The average Southern white man has no more respect and consideration for black and colored women than he has for a dog, and shows his contempt on every possible occasion, while insisting that black and colored men shall respect and consider white women as if they were pieces of heaven sliced into human shape to be worshiped as idols, or other fool business. That sort of condition breeds bad feelings all of the time, as travelers in the Southern States can easily see without trying to do so. Respect for womanhood that does not respect all womanhood, because it is womanhood, is a base coinage that is bound by the nature of it to create bad blood and all of the ugly consequences that in the end result from bad blood.
Two years ago when General Rosalie Jones and her "votes for women" hiked it to Washington, a very foolish thing to do, they were met at the Maryland border by a lot of white ruffians from Baltimore and bluntly told that if they favored "votes for colored women" they should expect rough treatment in passing "through Maryland, my Maryland." And they got plenty of rough treatment, which the daily dispatches glosSED over as best they could, in order to put the best face possible upon the dirty business.
The Wilson Administration had hardly got into working shape before it showed it had no respect for womanhood, when the womanhood did not belong to the Democratic party, by making war upon and removing Mrs. Helen Long-street as postmistress at Gainesville, Ga., on the ground that she was an offensive partisan. Gen. James Longstreet, her husband, had been one of the best and ablest of the Confederate generals, but after the war he stopped fighting and threw in his lot with President Grant and the Republican party. But the Wilson Administration threw his widow out of the little Gainesville post office just as cold-bloodedly as if she had been a man, a Republican man, with no great and historic name to sustain her in the position a Republican President, had given her to enable her to earn an honest living.
During the past week the New York Times has given much space to the case of Mrs. Ida O. Tillman, the postmistress at Geneva, Ga., who was removed from her position because she is a Republican, the inspector put on her trail recommending that she be displaced because he was put on her trail for that purpose. Mrs. Tillman made a brave fight to retain her office and bread and butter, but she did not have the right stamp of Southern womanhood and will have to get out. When approached in the matter the postal authorities at Washington shrugged their Democratic shoulders and declared: "The case is a closed incident. We do not expect to reopen the case." But it will be reopened, in the record closed, except for reference, and will rise up in the judgment to confound those who made and closed the dirty record.
Neither the Democratic party nor Democratic individuals can make war on helpless black women who have no protection because they are black and colored, and upon helpless white women who do not think as they think, pervertedly, upon questions of race or of politics and keep the respect of decent mankind or escape the consequences for the wrong which camp forever on the trail of wrong-doers. The Southern white man and alleged white man is built that way. They war on white women when they do not think and do as white men want them to do in race matters, church matters, educational matters, and in social settlement and political work, and they war on black and colored women as a matter of their informal principles, by the standards of which such women have no more rights than a Chief Justice declared black men had in 1856; that is, "no rights that a white man is bound to respect." The harbariism brutality and insensence of it!
The people of the nation will gradually wake up to the fact that the Southern white man's estimate of womanhood is restricted to his own women, from which the women of other men are rigidly excluded; and when they come to understand that thoroughly there is going to be lots of trouble for the Southern white man not written in any book. We say on, and it is said.
MUST WE FIGHT TO WIN?
Everywhere throughout the world, in Christian, pagan and in heathen lands, mankind, advanced mankind, with Mr. Andrew Carnegie as the inspiration and the bulwark, have for years advocated arbitration between nations rather than physical force, actual war, as the wisest and most bumane course to be adopted in the settlement of disputes, that are bound in the course of events to occur, often as to very trivial matters, easily amicably to be arranged if the parties are wise and not foolish. Despite the vast standing armies maintained by all nations as the best protection against war, it is fair to conclude that the peacemakers have gained a substantial victory, so that the nation that goes to war now must have a provocation sufficiently aggravating to justify it, after all efforts at peaceful composition have failed, or incur the displeasure of all of the other nations, with consequent inability to borrow the money necessary to finance the war. It is a great gain to mankind that, it has come to be that way, and promises to become more so.
As it has become with nations which have adopted the principle of arbitrating their disputes, so it has become in a great measure with labor unions in their conflict with capitalism for better wages, hours and housing, and the right to dictate in the affairs of their employees in no wise their business; law and public opinion have united to compel them to arbitrate their differences, so that the common interests of the public shall suffer the least inconvenience and loss. Individuals have been reduced to the most necessity. They are not allowed to engage in fistulcus, to cut and shoot each other, to disturb the peace and convenience of others, without being sharply called to account by the police, the constabulary or the soldiery. This is as it should be. Even dueling has been legalized out of practice in this country, while being still countenanced in Europe, the immigration authorities, at New York having barred out a distinguished Austrian only recently because he had engaged in a duel. That is to say, mankind are progressively getting beyond the lawless attitude toward each other which makes for bloodshed, and are coming more and more to rely upon the legal processes and of healthy, public opinion to settle their disputes of whatever sort. The men and the organizations and the nations that insist upon physical force as the best way of settlement have to pay for it in general disreputation and discredit. Our Southern States now have that bad character, and have had it since 1867. It is high time that they begin to amend their ways, and there are signs that they are beginning to do so.
We are not at all surprised that, at the celebration of the birthday of Charles Summer, in Washington, last week, the Rev. I. N. Ross, D.D., should have got off his stride and carried the audience with him, as reported in the following:
Nigrom were urged to stop burying musical instruments and sending their children to dancing schools and advised to open a church for drums and military education by the Rev. L. N. Ross, N.C., to encourage Negrom church, opening to sight to a large crowd and celebrating the birthday of Charles Summer. He told them they would have to take their musical, political, and industrial rights.
"Prepare for war in those of peace is the policy of this nation," he shouted. "It should be your policy if you wish to break from the oppression, the future of this area of new liberty."
Crisis of "We are with you!" "That's right!" proclaimed the speaker, and the audience rose working hand in hand and urging Rom to go on.
Mr. Oswald Garrison Villard of New York, who was one of the speakers, vigorously dissected from Dr. Rose's advice, but when the latter arose and referenced it, the audience was still with him; which shows conclusively that even in Washington, where the black colored worm has allowed itself to be trod upon no long and relentlessly, there is a disposition to turn and strike. It is not a bad sign, but it should be tempered with the wisdom that experience teaches. There are more ways to fight for rights and privileges denied than to rush into the arms of the police or the militia, unarmed and disorganized for the most part, as colored people are. Every person should have plenty of physical as well as plenty of moral courage, but neither will avail anything if desperate odds are run up against weighing the cost. No man is stronger than the law, however vile it may be, when it is backed by public opinion, however vicious it
What then? The work before the colored people in a hard work, and will require long years of wisdom and persistence to accomplish it; and that work is simply the creation of a public opinion that will conceive them their rights as citizens and men. It is an intellectual and moral work, such as the Jews have had to work in Europe and America for 1913 years, and are still engaged in, and they shall have to do the work as the Jews have had to do it and are doing it, by intellectual ascendance, by moral character of the high and great, by making love and hugging money, by buying and holding property, and
We have enough public opinion and bad law against us now, everywhere, and should labor to convince rather than to make, more of like sort. Men of the age, character and standing of Dr. Ross should not point the people to the way of civil, political and moral death, but rather to life of them in the way we have indicated. The Christian philosophy should not fail them in the long run to come into a rich inheritance in American citizenship, and we do not think that it will, but the run is long and the end is far.
MAKING MARRIAGE DIFFICULT.
Any law or public opinion that makes the marriage of two persons who desire it difficult, if not impossible, is not only immoral but works all the time for immoral relations and conditions. The bar against the intermarriage of blacks and colored and white and colored people in all of the Southern States works in this way, to the general demoralization of the social organism; the colored people being more at a disadvantage now than the whites, as the latter will have a way to reach colored people while the former have as yet found no way to reach white people; but where one party finds a way now the other party will find one after awhile. Love langha at locks and bars and laws and public opinion alike, and has always done so.
That the making of marriage difficult is a thing that the State should not do is home out by the demoralization caused by the new Eugenics law of Wisconsin, which has just gone into effect, and which requires that two people desiring to marry shall first obtain a prescribed certificate from a reputable physician that they have undergone a physical and mental examination and found sound enough in mind and body to be legally joined together. The physicians struck against the law first, maintaining that they could not afford to make the required examination for $3 as allowed by the law, and then the marriageable people went on strike. It is highly probable that the people of Wisconsin will rise in wrath when they reach the voting booths again and rip the life out of their Eugenics law.
There are entirely too many cranks of all sorts in the Federal Congress and the State legislatures who seek a little brief notoriety by introducing new laws for the curtailment of personal liberty and private rights and opinions not hitherto subjects of legal restriction and restraint. Laws are being so multiplied along those lines that citizens hardly know when they are within of without the legal tyranny. Arbitrary interference with personal choice of two people to get married, their age being granted and their parents not objecting, is the latest of these new things in law. There should be a reaction from unnecessary legislation in restraint of personal rights and privileges, and we think it is already beginning to set in.

The Truth Edition of the Norfolk Journal of Law is issued December 20th. It contains twenty-eight pages of reading matter and paying
advertisements, the latter representing in large part Negro business enterprises in Virginia and North Carolina while the contributors represent and, women and men, in business, exchange the church work. A significant feature of the advertising is the number of Jewish firms represented. The Jews do a large business among the colored people of Norfolk and they do not hesitate to advertise in the colored newspaper or give the colored people their job work. The colored people are learning to do the same thing, which is a powerful sign for all of our black peers, which for so long served the people upon the scantiest rations. We congratulate the Journal and Guide upon its enterprise and the excellence of its Trade Edition.
WHAT THE PEOPLE HAVE TO SAY.
THE RACE AND DANCING.
To the Editor of the Age
I have read with interest the book on the misconduct probed by the late, A Chayne Powell, published in last week's issue of The Age. To my mind this sermon strikes a new note bearing upon some of the weaknesses of our race in the South and for one I deserve a thank. Powell for being brave enough to prune such a sermon, and other ministers, continually grieve out in their directions we would mourn in a stronger and more useful race in this city.
When Dr. Powell says that our race in the large cities in the North is dancing itself to death, he certainly strikes a vital truth. The young people are alarmed, however, in which the members and other friendships in which the members are spending their time, energy and money. Many of the older people who seek to make money out of weaknesses of our people are responsible.
We are going to remain a race of underlings and dependents until our ministers are strong enough to speak to the people plainly and come listering them. An Dr. Powell may, the main doctor in which a very important part of our work is being done in the North are wounding their time in in dancing, playing cards, attending what parties, playing pool and billiards, or in some drinking alcohols. It seems as if our young men and women who should be moving money, buying property, going into bensimons, going into the prison, producing real work of life are invading the candle at both ends" by inducing and engaging in the frivolity and weakness of life.
Many who attended the late so-called Emancipation celebration were expired and disguised to find that even the bishop was turned into a dog. Another appeal to the grimness of our raw, simple to get money out of their bodies.
It one wants to get a clear idea as to the difference between the ambitions of the colored man in the North and in the South, he has but to read the North, the south, the Northern and Northern papers. The advertisements in the Northern papers are collated, in a very large degree, to balla, supper graces of various character, while the Southern papers contain advertisements urging the Negro to attend a business meeting, the state or state hall, or literary or educational meeting, a meeting to form a real estate organization, a bank, a mercantile establishment or something of that character. Read the news column of the Southern papers and you will find them billed with details of what the Negro is holding in their conferences, poultry raising associations. The news items relate to the amount of money the race has raised to build a college hall, to establish a new church, the organization of new women's clubs, clubs to study domestic science in this kind of work, to have our whole attention turned to dancing, etc.
Why can't we learn a lesson from what the white man is doing right about us? Every day our daily papers are filled with accounts of what white people are doing in commercial directions. Only a few days ago a great poultry show being carried out at an automobile exhibition was held last week in New York. Two or three weeks ago we had a meeting of all the real estate dealers in this section. Within a few weeks we shall have a convention composed of the hardware dealers, another of contractors. Last year there was held a great convention composed of the grocers of New York, another of the draggers, and all the women of the world who will women's garments. Why can't our people take a hard and learn something from what the Anglo-Nazan is doing every day right about us?
While the white man is going on propping in three directions, we seem to be content to spend our days in sweeping the white man's door, washing his windows and dancing and drinking whiskey at night. After spending one day in the dark, we see that there are people who are trying to help us into the false hope of believing that we can make program and be respected if we spend another large portion of our time in attending indignation meetings, getting worked up into a fever of excitement, throwing up hats and handkerchiefs when some white man tells us he is going to secure all the rights that belong to him, who tells us this would never dream of giving us a job as a bookkeeper or cashier or salesman in his own business establishment. We must no longer depend upon the white man to make a place for us, but must make one for ourselves.
Our preachers have been too long silent on the very subject that Dr. Powell will so bravely spoken on us, and he is hoped that we will be able to maintain that preach will preach such helpful sermons in the future.

The Wright-Lewis Decision
In your home on December 25 appeared an article informing your many patrons and friends that at a special meeting held by the Publication Board of A. M. B. Church that Manager Love and Editor Wright of the Christian Recorder, were reminated, but your article did not give the information that upon upon great growth they were placed in many places. I think many who could not fathom why Editor Wright should have returned similar settlement as Manner

Lewis. It would have been better for all if the matter had not been taken up by the board and after valuing it upon it and adjudge both quietly and remove them from office and then at the expiration of the time given to fix up the business officers to turn it over to their successors, their successors, to say the least was a great surprise.
It is not my intention to enter into the morris or deridder of the matter, but it seems that someone has blundered or the gas has been abruptly shut off, leaving things in a feuded condition. We live in this great Metropolis, 1,000,000 or more citizens, become accustomed to win the hearthlight turned upon us when we appear before the limelight either in church or State.

To the Editor of The Am
To the man in thank you for the kindness of giving our Y. M. C. A. meeting such prominence in your paper a few days ago. The Ago was the only colored paper outside of Atlanta that carried such a full account, and specially at a very short notice. That meeting has been our work here great and we have a fine co-operation of the pastors of the city. They have come together and planned for a second meeting, which is to take place at the Auditorium on the third Sunday in February, at which larger sum will be given for the new building. We will have a spirit as this cannot be no defeat for Atlanta. Up to the present we have one man, who has given us $1,000 in cash, one $250, one $200, and fourteen persons have paid $100 each, twenty-four persons have paid $50 each, thirty persons have paid $25 each. The other accounts run on down to fifty cents. These are Negroes. Mr. David F. Howard, the undertaker, is the man who has paid $1,000.

ODD NUMBERS AND A COLOR SCHEME
There is a fascinating charm to figures, whether rotund, slender, angular, or numerical. A sheriff of Liberty County, Texas, must have had a fond faith in the figure nine, for C. & B. F. Ry. Co., Tennessee (Court of CIVI Appellate Court), Texas, 1848. South-damages for a chooser of five atms, $999.99, for better forced to ride in a necro coach with his negro prisoner. One wonders how his allegedification and humiliation had this precise valuation. The figures are figure to be covered with. Just think he would feel to hold five nines in a poker game. However, the sheer infetion on the wrong figure. The question raised in this case was whether or not a conductor had the trombone power to determine whether a Negro, in character, was a white sheeril, should ride with the officer in the officer for whites, or whether the officer and his prisoner should ride in the colored coach. The court decided that under the statutes of Texas conductor had such power as the railroad company could not be liable for the conductor's act in compulsing the colored coach.
About "Nigger Brown."
To the Editor of Volume 1
Through the columns of The Age I notice the event of a new color of cloth, longer brown. How my mind filled with rapture as I thought of the various shades to be had possibly under this caption. For instance, "high brown," "chocolate," "plain brown," "teasing brown," and "man-hoxany brown." And Mrs. Burleson, God bless her! I know she she, a peach in her tete de Néroir. Somehow, we, as "nigger brown," blacks or white, or as nigger blacks or brown, seem indispensable one way or the other. Some class to us! I admire the spirit of Negro women of your State in their attitude toward issue and hope them success.
Yours truly,

Persona non grata.
Last Monday afternoon, for the
first time in the history of New
York, theatre-goers witnessed the un-
wwaual spectacle of a colored orchestra
playing in the pit of a first class thea-
tre for white artists. This'scene was
emacted at two houses in one after-
soon—Hammerstein’s Victoria Thea-
tre and the Palace Theatre. Such an
wausval condition was due to the in-
sistence of Mr. and Mrs. Vernon Cas-
the, known in the Four Hundred as
wociety dancers, tliat’ James Reese.
Earope's Society Orchestra, play their
dance music.
Mr. and Mra. Vernon Castle are at

York. They not only appear before
the Four Hundred at private enter-
tainments, but comdect a dance hall

Bers af the Smart Set are allowed to

going to use mandolins, banjos and
guitars only, but when the colored

an enthusiastic reception, applauding
them heartily and demanding encores.
the white musicians assumed a dif-
ferent attitude and immediately ask-
ed.that the colored orchestra be per-
mitted to play om the stage instead
of in the pit, contending that a num-
ber of the colored men did not be-

Fighting Gallery Accommodations in
Leuievitie,
The majorit, of citixc-s of Louis-
vilre are remaining far, far away from],
the Mary Anderson and National)
theatres, because the managers of |.
these houses have given out that]
Negroes. mut’ either accept gallery
accommodations or stay away,: Com- |
mittees have been appointed :to watch |
the gallery entrances of the two thea-
rea and report all Negroes who are.
wr lacking .in self-respect as to go]
where they are not provided decent |,
ccommodations. “ye
That there are some colored people}
i ee ee nt
it. the pact ten days thay have shown
a deposition to recede from their
jcratwhile stand that afl Negro patrons
must either sit im ‘the gallery or stay
away, -
‘The management of the Natioeal
‘Theatre has iseecd the following
‘statement: “Colored poopie may have
second gallery sents, but they musi
‘ase the alley entrance; under no cir-
cumstances can they. cater or exit by
the fromt door.” . ~
This is what the management of th:
Mary: Anderson had'to say: “My gal-
Nery brings from $230 to $300 a week.
It is crowded at every performaace
with the best colored people in the
‘tows. They are satisfied with condi-
tions, bet Hf it cam be arranged to
give them seats in the balcony with.
out entering the froat door I might
consider it.” --
The colored Americans throeghoat
the United States would like very
much to learn the identity. of “the
best colored people in the town.”
who are satisfied with gallery accom
modations, and who deem it a rare
privilege to make their catrance and
exit by means of an alley.
Bet we fear the management of
the Mary Anderson Theatre is one
of those misguided creatures who be-
liewes that all colored people are alike
and is just as apt to take anybody
for ome of the best colored people ir
the town, so long as he is well dress-
ed. Bat according to reports from
Louisville, the latest statements given
out by the theatre managers has not
changed the situation one iota.

the following statement in its news columns:
Third Largest Individual Stockholder in Brooklyn.
Watt Terry, of Main street, real estate dealer, is Brockton's third largest individual tax payer, his assessment being exceeded only by that of George E. Keith and ex-Gov. W. L. Douglas. Mr. Terry is assessed on $474,600 valuation in real estate. He pays a tax of $101-164,600 on 64 parcels of real estate and on personal property. His name was inadvertently omitted Wednesday from the Times list of heavy taxpayers.
The Mr. George E. Keith here referred to is the managing director of the Walk-Over Shoe Company, while ex-Governor W. L. Douglas is at the head of the W. L. Douglas Shoe Company, well known throughout the country.
Mr. Terry while here at Tuskegee spoke in the Chapel Sunday evening January 4, to the assembled student body, officers, and teachers, and to many persons from the town of Tuskegee and vicinity. He compiled the remarks almost entirely to the story of his career outside of the role of state business, emphasizing particularly the humble way in which he began, and of the various positions held by him a hostler, as janitor of the Y. M. C. V is a laborer in the shoe factory, and as Pullman car porter. A humorous feature of his address was a description of his visit to his old home county in Virginia; he said:
"A few days ago, on my way to Alabama, I stopped off at my old home and to my great surprise I found more people that had raised me than I ever really knew. In fact, it seemed as if every other person I met had something to do with raising me. It really took considerable time to thank all the old inhabitants for the part they took in rearing me."
With particular reference to the guiding principles of his life, he emphasized that fact that he was a member of the Young Men's Christian Association, and had been almost ever since he reached Brockton. He never used tobacco or liquor and does not allow them in his home. The first and foremost in all of his business dealings is the thought that ever yuan with whom he has business relations is entitled to "a square deal."
On Monday evening in the room of the Academic Building, he spoke to the students of the Senior, A Middle and B Middle classes, and to a large group of the teaching body as well. In his talk Mr. Terry resumed where he left on Sunday evening, and told more in detail of his career as a real estate man. What Mr. Terry had to say was substantively as follows:
Telle Story of His Career.
"I arrived in Brockton, Mass, thirteen years ago with a capital stock of fifteen cents. I worked for awhile as coachman for a family there in the city of Brockton, and then I succeeded in getting into the Young Men's Christian Association where I worked as assistant juniors for about two and a half years. After getting tired of my job at the Young Men's Christian Association.
then, through a foundation then of my own experience, if succeeded in getting a position no porter on the railroad. This position I did not care for, and I only worked at it about a month.
"Druthen is in a shoe-making centre, and it is extremely hard to get a place in the factory where. I had a friend who was working in the shoe shop and I consulted him as to the best way of getting a chance to work there and learn a trade. Following his advice I want up to the white forman and asked him if he would give me an opportunity to learn a trade in the shoe factory. It is not only hard to get an opening in one of those factories because of the fact that they usually employ union labor, but also because of the prejudice against men of my race which is entertained by the workmen. The forman, however, talked to me frankly and kindly and said that he would give me a job provided I would work two weeks for nothing. This I was very glad to do, and later on saw that it paid me to accept his proposition; in fact, by working two weeks for nothing I got an opportunity to work on one of the machines even though the men working in the factory did not want me to learn the trade. One of the white fellows working on a machine had been drinking pretty hard and as he had been slighting his work he did not stand very well in favor with the foreman; one day he went off from work and stayed off on a spree for several days; when he came back I was right on the job."
New Owns Much Real Estate.
I own nearly 50 pieces of property with 222 suites or apartments. Among his property are two very large apartment houses with fifty-four suites in the two houses. I also have a lease of seven or more years from the United States Government on a building which I rent them and which is used as the post office building of the city of Brockton, Mass.; and then I am honored to rent to the city of Brockton a public reading room and library in one part of the city.
