Boley, Okla., July 14.—To prove that the Negro, as a race, is incapable of self-government, critics who arbitrarily assume to serve as accusers, judge and jury for the race, point to that revolution-torn black republic, Haiti. If they would but turn their eyes to the southwest here in the United States, they would behold the existence, in one state alone—Oklahoma, of eight exclusively Negro towns that are conclusively demonstrating the Negro's growing capacity for self-government, as a town builder and community conservator.
Boley, Taft, Red Bird, Langston, Taunts, Brooksville, Vernon and Rentlesville—all in the state of Oklahoma—testify to the innate peacefulness and acquired constructiveness of the American Negro. Boley, with its 2,500 Negroes within the town's corporate limits, and its 10,000 Negro population within a radius of ten miles which population is a direct contributant to the municipality, is the largest of the eight exclusively Negro towns in Oklahoma, and the largest exclusively Negro town on the Western Hemisphere, being three times the size of Mound Bayou, Miss.
A Town of Staple Orderly Government
I spent several days here in the interest of that constructive organization which Dr. Booker T. Washington inspired into existen the National Negro Business League, investigating this town whose stability, orderly government, carefully and conservatively administered, presents the conclusive proof that the American Negro is capable of self-government.
In Haiti a standing army, whose maintenance impaces a burdensome tax upon the country's limited resources, preserves the life of the republic while at the same time jeopardizes
long its peace with continual disasters and bloody revolutions. In Boley no soldier patrols its borders in its streets, or guards its regularly closed officials. Boley is governed by force of arms, but by the millions of Peace. Boley has orderly conducted elections for the selection of governing officials, but no armed revolutions to enthrone an executive. Boley's taxes are assessed by and with the consent of the governed, and not by arbitrary officials who command office and power by force. Boley applies the constructive propa-
sition of Booker T. Washington more than the destructive intrigues wielded in the black republic beyond the United States' southwest kissed border. Boley repre-

CHIEF SAM IS NOW SAID
TO BE IN GALVESTON
The Associated Press dispatches of July 13 give the information that Chief Alfred C. Sam has turned up in Galveston, Texas, with the vessel in which he proposes to sail to Africa. The antiquated liner has been rechristened the Liberia. It is reported that Sam has paid $40,000 on the purchase price, the total agreed on being $250,000.
He arrived in Galveston on June 18, the report goes, and several hundred Negroes from Oklahoma were waiting there, having been led to believe that the vessel would sail the latter part of March.
Sam is charging 25 cents for admission to the deck of the ship and 25 cents more to speak to him.
The people are dissatisfied and disgruntled, and unless Sam makes a move within the next two weeks he will lose the confidence of most of his followers.
It is reported that he is trading in the name of the Mim Trading Co., having sold about $250,000 worth of stock in that company at $25 a share.
WHITES TRY TO DRIVE
PHILADELPHIA, Pa., July 15—Mrs. Mary L. Montague, a colored woman, purchased, for residential purposes, a house at 1904 North St. Bernard street, West Philadelphia, and took possession June 7.
White neighbors objected to her presence and on the night of June 30, a mob of a thousand whites bombarded the house with bricks and stones, usually using firearms, coupling the demonstration with threats of death if the occupants remained until the next day.
For two hours the mob raged, damaged the house front and rear, no policemen being in evidence. In response to a telephone call from a saloonkeeper at the corner of 52nd street and Westminster avenue one policeman responded who sent in a riot cell. Two wagon loads of officers were then sent to the scene and order restored.
Mrs. Montague purchased the property through a colored agent and had no prior intimation that the white people of the neighborhood objected to colored residents.
The Department of Public Safety has made an investigation and it is reported that a number of the ringleaders have been arrested. It is probable also that a storekeeper in the neighborhood, who sold fireworks at half-price, to "blow the migrants out," will be indicted.
FOUR ADDITIONAL CITY
NURSES ARE APPOINTED
Four young Negro women, graduates of the Lincoln Nurse Registry, Miss Bertha Lewis and Mrs Cora Winston 186 West 155th street, Miss Ethee Watkins, 833 Last 219th street, and Miss Deas of Brooklyn, have been appointed city nurses by the board of health, the young women having passed the nurse's examination held by the city. One hundred and twenty-nine nurses were appointed, many vacancies being made because numerous white nurses already in the service could not meet the new requirements. Miss Deas is assigned to contagious diseases and her territory is in Brooklyn. The other three are assigned to milk stations. Miss Watkins is stationed in Eldridge street. Miss Lewis is in Division street and Mrs Winston in Brooklyn.
The nurses supervise the distribution of milk for babies and give mothers directions for preparing the child's food at home. Based on its condition. The children are examined and weighed each day and mothers are instructed in how to care for the infants.
Eight colored nurses are now serving as city nurses, four others having been employed for some time.

Nannie H. Burroughs Makes Charge of Inhospitality Against Y.W.C.A.
OUT IN STORM ALL NIGHT.
Mrs. Cabaniss, V. W. C. A. Secretary, Denies Charge, and Says There Was No Room in Building That Night-Offer to Secure Places for Travelers Refused.
Miss Nannie H. Burroughs, of the National Training School, Washington, D. C., created a sensation at the meeting of the Empire-State Federation of Women's-Clubs, held in Concord Baptist Church, Brooklyn, July 1-3, when she spoke of her experience in applying to the Y. W. C. A., 121 West 132nd street. Although it was after the midnight hour and a fierce electrical storm was raging, Miss Burroughs claimed that she and two of the girl students of her school were refused accommodation at the Y. W. C. A., of which Mrs. Cecilia Cabaniss is secretary.
As a result of the failure to secure accommodation in the institution, Miss Burroughs claimed that she and her girls had to walk the streets all night in a pouring rain, not finding a place of shelter until next morning, when a friend's home in Newark, N. J., furnished shelter, food and comfort. The women of the Federation were stirred by Miss Burrough's recital.
Miss Burroughs Tolla of Experience.
Following her verbal recital, Miss Burroughs has written to THE ACE the following account of her experience.
Imagine yourself in New York City about twelve o'clock at night, with two young women for whom you were personally responsible, hunting for lodgings. A fierce electrical storm is raging. The rain is coming down in torrents, the gutters cannot carry, the water off. The streets are so flooded that you wade in the water ankle deep to get to the curbstone. You have plenty of language but no umbrella or coat. You get up in the mid-122nd street to 123nd street in this storm, with a hope of finding an open door—at least for a night. You are not a beggar nor are you seeking free entertainment.
As you approach the building No. 121 West 132nd street, you see by the brilliant light "Y. W. C. A." This is the place. How glad you are to get in—we bedraggled, tired (you traveled all day).
"Walk in!" is the sign on the door. You obey. The lady who announces that she is the housekeeper, comes to meet you. "I have just come into the city and would like to get lodging tonight for two girls and myself."
I am sorry, but we cannot take you.
"I is so hot and we are so tired—I would like to remain if it is at all possible."
"We have no room; I am the housekeeper and I know."
"Well, perhaps so"—and despite the tired feeling and the dampness, you are amused at the "tautful—no christ-like way of handling those who seek shelter" but may I see the Secretary "No, she has gone to bed and there is no room here." "Will you kindly tell her that Miss
"I will tell her, but she is in bed"
"Take a seat in the room there. I will see"
"No, thank you, we will stand, as we are quite damp"
"In a few minutes the Secretary comes down, clad in a kimono. She said, 'We are sorry, but we cannot accommodate you, a girl is detained here, cause of the storm, and we cannot take a night. I can send you to a place'
"We are so tired and it is so late that I do not want to tramp any more to night."
"Well, you can go to 'The Home for Working Girls'."
"No, they might be crowded too, and we would be turned away."
She then stated that there was one empty bed but she did not offer that but simply continued to impress it upon us that "We cannot accommodate you."
Cannot Reach Friends on Phone.
You think a moment and then ask for permission to use the telephone. It was granted but the party we called did not answer. We found out a day or two later that the family was out of the city. While we were trying to get in touch with some one we knew or felt would not turn us away in midnight we were entertained by five or six young women in lodgers, I presumed who had not retired, but were holding "high court" in the office and the subject disused by them, while we were telephoneing was "Fair." Our friends said "and of course we have to go out." We told the sender that he means it. We would be best for us to go, to the station to stay night and then bade her Good night" to which she gleefully responded "good night." We picked up our luggage and started for the car. It is (Continued on page 5).
ADDRESS IN LONDON
When the sixth international dental congress convenes in London, England, next month the only Negro dentist who will have an assignment on the program will be Dr. Charles H. Roberts of 242 West 53rd street, New York City. Dr. Roberts has been given the subject, "The Teeth of the American Negro," and he is well fitted by training and experience for the task. It is an unusual distinction which has been accorded Dr. Roberts, not because he is a Negro, but because of his ability. He is the only Negro who has been so honored by this international body and his opportunities for wide experience make him exceptionally well qualified to discuss the subject from a scientific view point.
Dr Roberts was born in Louisburg, N. C., some forty years ago. After finishing at the Albion Academy, Franklinton, N. C., he graduated in 1896 from Lincoln University. Two years were spent in the study of medicine at the New York Homopathic Medical College. He left this school and entered the Philadelphia Dental College, graduating in dental surgery in 1901. After practising one year in Winston-Salem, N. C., he came to New York in 1902, practising there ever since. His first office was at 252 West 53rd street, moving later to 242 on the same street. He was married in 1907, to Miss Hattie Beatty. Dr. Roberts, Mrs. Roberts, their daughter, Beatrice O., and Dr. E. P. Roberts, brother, will sail July 21 on the Cunard steamer, the Aquatania, which is said to be the fastest steamer in the world, going direct to London for the congress. Afterward they will take a continental trip, returning to Amelia, August 22. While Dr. Roberts is away his office will be in charge of an efficient dentist.

COL. JAS. LEWIS, RACE LEADER. DEAD IN N. O.
SPECIAL: THE NEW YORK MUSEUM
NEW ORLEANS, La. July 14—COL.
James, Lewis died here & Saturday
morning, July 11. For years he has
been conspicuous as a race leader
and has occupied a large place in
national affairs, as well as locally.
Col. Lewis, though without early
school advantages, was well read
and his great store of common sense,
coupled with an uncompromising ag-
gressiveness, carried him far as a
leader of the race and gained for him
the respect and consideration even of
the southern whites
He was a member of the Republican National Convention in many sessions, achieving distinction in 1880 as a member of the "famous 300, whose espousal of Grant's candidacy tied up the convention and eventually resulted in the nomination and election of James A. Garfield. Col Lewis has held many positions of importance, nationally and locally. President Haves appointed him United States Naval Officer. President Arthur, who succeeded the martyred Garfield, appointed him Surveyor General. President Harrison made him Deputy Collector of Customs and Immigration Inspector, and President McKinley and Roosevelt appointed him Surveyor General. In the city government he was Commissioner of Police and Public Buildings and Administrator of Public Improvements.
A veteran of the civil war, he was for years Department Commander of the Grand Army of the Republic of Louisiana and Mississippi. He worked zealously always for the betterment of his people.
A BEER KEG SAVES KING FROM DEATH IN WRECK
LUKA NUB, Ga., July 14 — Horace H. King, corner Hill and King streets, mail agent on the Macon and Birmingham Railroad, running between Laigrange and Macon, was brought home Saturday, July 11, suffering from serious mines received in a wreck on the M. & B. in which Mr. King was buried under the wreckage of the mail and baggage cars. He is severely bruised and battered, but no bones are broken. Mr. King's escape from death is almost a miracle, his life being saved by one of the doors of the car, which fell across a beer keg, which kept the heavy timbers of the two cars from crushing him to death. Mr. King was taken to Macon, Mrs. King going to that city immediately after the accident.

PASTOR OF MOTHER ZION PROTESTS BISH.WALTERS
Causes Bishop to Decline to Serve as Judge in Case of Rev. R. M. Bolden
SAID TO HAVE NO STATUS
Protest Signed by Rev. J. W. Brown and Trustees of Mother Zion Raises Question of Legality of Church's Action—Annual Conference, not Church, Party Involved.
Because of a protest filed by the pastor and trustees of Mother A. M. E. Zion Church, Bishop Alexander Walters has notified the Rev. Frederick M. Jacobs, 410 Gold street, Brooklyn, counselor for the Rev. Richard J. M. Bolden, that he has decided not to preside over the Court of Appeals in the trial of the appeal which Dr. Jacobs nled July 3 with Bishop Walters in behalf of the Rev. Mr. Bolden from the decision of the New York conference of June 11-13, in which Mr. Bolden was expelled from that conference.
The text of the protest filed with Bishop Walters by the Rev. J. W. Brown, pastor of Mother A. M. E. Zion Church, has not been given out as yet by Dr. Jacobs, as he wanted to have further consultation with Bishop Walters before making it public, but it is alleged that the action of the Mother Zion officials was based on prejudice to the interests of Bolden rather than on any inherent rights belonging to the church in the case. It is pointed out that the appeal of Dr. Jacobs is not in any way allied to action by the Mother Zion Church, but relates entirely to action taken by the annual conference. That Bishop Walters, after agreeing to act under a law of the church which is mandatory, and under which it is said he has no legal alternative other than to act at least to the extent of organizing the court, is surprising to those associated in the case.
In his letter of declination a pressed to the appellant's counsel, Bishop Walters suggested that either Bishop Clinton, of the New Jersey Conference, or Bishop Mistork of the Alabama Conference, be asked to preside With an attentive tone to influence different opinions on part of Bishop Walters, Dr. Jacobs has already, transmitted Bollens' appeal to Bishop Clinton. The appeal is identical with that submitted to Bishop Walters a copy of which was printed in The Not of July 9.
The papers made the matter of the appeal were handed to Bishop Walters in person by a representative of the Rev. Mr Bollens acting for Dr. Jacobs, on Friday, July 5. Bishop Walters stated to the representative that he would be out of town on the following day, Saturday, July 4, that the case would be taken up in due time. The letter written to Bishop Walters to Dr. Jacobs, stating that Mother Zion's protest had caused him to decide it to preside in the case was written on Monday, July 7. Since it is suppoible that, Bishop Walters was out of town from Saturday July 4 to Monday July 8, it is a matter of structure as to how it was possible for the pastor and others of Mother Zion to receive such advice.
information as enabled them to file a protest with Bishop Walters on Monday, July 6, when he returned to the city. Further developments in this case will be awaited with interest. Friends of the Rev. Mr. Bolden are saying that the charge of conspiracy by certain elements in the church which Mr. Bolden has made is being borne out by the trend of the case.
JOHN H. HARRIS
MISSISSIPPI SHERIFF
DEFIES LYNCHING MOB
Special to THE NEW YORK AGE.
Bay Springs, Miss., July 14.—Sheriff Jones of this county has shown the kind of courage that entitles him to a place on the roll of honor of brave men. When a mob attempted on the morning of July 9 to take from his custody, a Negro, Mose Johnson, then heriff promptly summoned thirty deputies in addition to thirteen, he already had and denied the mob. He ordered the crowd to disperse and informed them that he would protect the Negro at all hazards.
That kind of opposition weakened the determination of the would-be lynchers and they sullenly and slowly scattered. Johnson was charged with holding up the pay car of the Gilchrist-Fordney Company at Stevens, Miss., getting $2,300 in currency. One clerk was killed and two severely wounded.

REPORTS FROM RAILROAD DAY
An Epitome of the Results Achieved in Various Cities with Southern Railways
RAILROADS PROMISE AID
Committees in Different Sections of the Country Discuss Present Inferior Accommodations for Negroes and Enter Protests
ACT IN SIX STATES OF SOUTH
Some Results from Dr. Booker T. Washington's Efforts to Secure Better Accommodations for Colorad People on Trains and Other Public Conveyances.
WASHINGTON, D. C., July 15. Reports indicate that "Railroad Day" observance, suggested and urged by Dr. Booker T. Washington, has not been in vain. It is too soon, however, to make up any definite estimate of the real benefits which colored people of the United States are to receive as a result of the combined protest of the race against the unspeakable, indefensible, and hatredengendering miquites of the separate car laws, as at present enforced in the Southern state. But it is certain that much future good will result from the movement. Below are set down reports from a few of the cities which observed the day:
Washington, D. C.
While there was no general observance of "Railroad Day" in Washington, nor any committee appointed to wait on the railroads, a few colored ministers of the city preached on the subject of better accommodation for colored passengers.
Cadiz, Ky.
A committee was appointed to present the complaint of the colored people to the Louisville & Nashville and the Illinois Central Railroads. A special resolution commending the president and officials of the Cadiz Railroad Company for its treatment of colored passengers was also adopted.
Louisville, Ky
Representative colored agents called on the general passenger agents of Ilo-ville and conferred with them relative to better railroad accommodations for colored passengers. The committee was very cordially received and a satisfactory and lengthy conference was held. The agents admitted that the discriminations do exist, but claimed that they are due to public sentiment and conjunct legislation. However, the committee was told that some of the discriminations were contrary to the regulations and they were asked to report any violations of the rules so that steps may be taken to right matters. It was promised that the matter of providing meals and sleeping cars for colored passengers would be taken up with the different railroads, in the hope that something can be done to better conditions. The matter of providing sleeping car accommodations seemed to be the difficult one to settle. The committee felt very much encouraged as a result of the conference.
Petersburg, Va.
A small committee met in the office of Big Colored Lugman and signed a protest against present railroad facilities for travel now given colored passengers in the South.
Spokane, Washington
The Colored Men's Business League of Spokane addressed a letter to the Train-ontinental Passenger Association of Chicago urging the body to use its influence to improve the conditions complained of by Dr. Washington. The League took action to thank the Association for the fact that the conditions of travel or travelled of by colored passengers in the South do not obstruct the State of Washington.
Hattiesburg, Miss.
A committee adopted a "Bill of Complaints" and presented it to the superintendents of the Gulf & Ship Island and the Mississippi Central Railroads. They made copies to the New Orleans and Nearwest and the New Orleans, Mobile & Chicago Railroads. The committee called on the officials of the first two railroads named were cordially greeted, went over the complaints with the officers and were promised that conditions would be changed.
Jackson, Miss.
It is stated in Jackson that, as a result of "Railroad Day," Negroes of the State are filing petitions with the Railroad Commission, setting forth the contention that existing conditions of travel for colored people in the State
are deplorable and protesting against discriminations practiced against their race on railroads. tion of Major Fillmore plans have been laid by which candidates for commission will be secured positions comporting in fleet of foot; "Spanish" Valdez, of Spanish origin; "Monk" Harris, of pa- laeolithic physiognomy; "Bunny" Knoll.
Birmingham, Ala.
A large mass meeting of colored people met in the Metropolitan A. M. E. Zion Church of Birmingham on Sunday, June 7, under the auspices of the Birmingham Civic and Educational League, to make protests against the iniquities made possible by the present separate car, law of the South. After listening to strong addresses on the subject by a number of prominent colored citizens, letters were addressed, to the nine railroads' entering Birmingham, to the State Railroad Commission, and to the United States' Interstate Commerce Commission, calling attention to the many discriminations which are made against Negroes on public carriers, and asking for some remedy for the evils complained of.
The most satisfactory reports thus far seen have come from New Orleans, where the colored people, with the chairman, Dr. Rob E. Jones, editor of the Southwestern Christian Advocate, met in the Central Congregational Church and issued an appeal to the public and the railroads, urging better accommodations for colored passengers. The Times-Prairie (white) devoted considerable space to a report of the meeting, and it showed that committees were appointed to consult the representatives of the twelve railroads entering New Orleans. The opening words of the appeal, according to the Times-Prairie, were: "It is a matter of no small significance that the Negroes of the country under the leadership of the true and tried apostle of peace, Booker T. Washington, are grafted, together today in their home towns and cities to invite national and local consideration of the public humiliation and injustice forced upon the race by the prevailing methods of operating the separate car laws."
"What was interesting and encouraging as we proceeded with the movement, showed every willingness to give a respectful, and sympathetic hearing to our complaints. New Orleans is a railroad center. There was not one of the higher officials of the large Trunk Lines entering New Orleans but that time when he would hear a committee accepted suggestions and appointed a director. This in itself was significant. There were those who felt that this might be denied. But at once the replies that came from the general offices were courteous, respectful and cordial and in every case the committee was received with all courtesies that could be expected and the complaints actually made to correct the abuses. Two things were apparent. The high railroad officials had not had their attention called to the situation as it really is; they did not know of the many indicities that we suffer and inconveniences that are heaped upon us by the train crew and others responsible for the train. Again, they did not know but that we were satisfied with the conditions and as soon as the matter was brought to their attention in a straightforward, business like way, the promise was given that the eills would be corrected. It now seems very clear that this program have been put through in city in the South with gratifying results."
Dr. Jones and the committee called on representatives of the Pullman Car Company, and the division, superintendent requested that they send him a letter to be forwarded with one of his own to Chicago urging that sleeping cars be provided for colored people, even if the drawing room must be split and berths sold at the regular rates. Dr. Washington has done many things for his race, but if he had done nothing else, colored people all over the United States must admit that by his manly and courageous course in publicity pointing out the injustices and indignities heaped up on colored passengers, and in trying to devise a workable method of removing them, he has laid us all under an eternal debt of gratitude.
EX-ADIUTANT, CARR
WANTS $5,000 FOR LIBEL
C. Franklin Carr, who was ousted by Col. C. W. Fillmore and the council of administration of the Provisional Regiment from his position as adjutant, has held a suit for $5,000 against Col Fillmore and a local paper, charging them with label because an article was published in the aforesaid paper saying that Carr had been disloyal to the regiment to the extent of endeavoring to secure Cornelius Vanderbilt as colonel commanding the proposed Negro regiment. The intimation was that Mr Carr was far-seeing in his own interest and would be benefited if Mr. Vanderbilt accepted
In filing his complaint, Mr Carr stated that he was actuated by high motives, that one reason the Negro regiment had not been admitted was because Maj. Gen. O'Ryan and Brig. Gen. Hamilton objected to Negro officers. He attempt to secure Vanderbilt's acceptance was to overcome this obstacle.
Replying to the complaint. Col. Fillmore and the paper declared an absence of malice in publishing the story and affirm that the statements were true.
MANDAMUS TO COMPEL
ADI GENERAL TO ACT
ADJ-GENERAL TO ACT
It is intimated that because of the dilatory tactics of the Adjutant General'of the National Guard of New York in carrying out the provisions of the bill providing for the Negro regiment of infantry in National Guard, mandanus proceedings will be instituted to compel him to commission the officers and muster in the regiment. Governor Glynn has been communicated with and those interested are awaiting his reply before taking radical steps to enforce compliance with the provisions of the bill.
The provisional regiment is controlled now by a new council of administration, the old council being disbanded. White officers have made the criticism that Negroes applying for commission were filling, in many instances, service positions, and consequently would not be able to meet white officers with proper dignity. The new council of administration has made a careful investigation and reports that only a few of the aspirants would come in that class. Under the sugges-

THE NEGRO FARMER
A Paper That Helps People to Become. Better Farmers is an-Aid to the Church, the School and to the Secular and Religious Papers.
It has been decided to publish at Tuskegee Institute Post Office; Every-Other-Week for the present; a national farm paper to be known as THE NEGRO FARMER. It will be published in the interest of Negro landowners, tenant farmers and of those who employ Negro labor. There is no other strictly farm newspaper in the world devoted to the interest of Negro farmers.
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. It is proposed to circulate this paper among the 2,000,000 black farmers of the United States. The paper will be eight pages, of about the size of "The Country Gentleman."

FOUR REVOLUTIONS AT THE SAME TIME.
We are interested in Santo Domingo and Haiti because of racial as well as sentimental reasons, and we wish them well for both reasons, and we wish further that their wise men could see the matter of their government as we see it and act accordingly; but when Ephraim has one or more idols, and calls them revolution, and insists on worshipping one or the other of them all of the time, what can be done about it? Revolution is the curse of both those countries, as it is of all Latin American States; it is their best-selling sin, and it promises in the end to be the end of them, unless they speedily amend their way's in that respect. The Great Powers of Europe and America have decreed that the people of the Latin American States shall maintain lawful and orderly government among them, and that they shall respect the rights and feelings of others as they expect others to respect theirs, or they will be compelled to do it. Are the Powers justified in taking this position? The question is academic, and they may discuss it who have the rag-chewing habit.
Santo Domingo, which is divided from Haiti by a narrow frith, our State Department has information, has four revolutions on its hands at once at the present time. It has so many able capable men to provide a living for in idleness or activity in revolutionary activity, that her people have little time to develop and enjoy the splendid resources of the country. Our Government is worried over the situation, because it has a semiprotectorate of the country and has been collecting its custom house revenues to satisfy the creditors of it, but Mr. Vick, the American collector, has resigned, and Minister Sullivan is on the way to this country and not expected to return to his post and poor Mr. White is left in charge of the Legation. When things get to such a pass in a country the people of it are bound to lose hope and courage and outsiders are bound to lost faith in them.
Everywhere the warlike spirit is manifesting itself in many parts of the globe, not alone among States, but among individuals, as such and in the small organizations maintained to constrain others to do that they are not willing to do of their own will; such as labor organizations that demand more wages and fewer hours of work, and Socialistic organizations, that insist that people shall see and do things as they see and do them, whether the want to or not, and are ready with boycott, lockout, pickets and dynamite to enforce upon others their demands; while, in the Southern section of the country, one part of the people insist upon making and enforcing all the laws against the other part, because they have the power to do it, on the race and color line, sowing the seed of trouble in the present which is sure to come to a head somewhere in the future, for as we sow to-day so shall we reap to-morrow.
The honest workers and thinkers of the world want peace and order among themselves as individuals and governments, so that they can get the best results out
THE NEGRO AND THE SOUTH'S INDUSTRIAL LIFE
The efforts of all those who have striven during the past twenty years to prove that the Negro's industrial and economic life was independent of his political rights, and that by seeking to obtain the one at the expense of the other he would follow the better course, have failed, as they were bound to fail, because there can be no industrial and economic growth and security in the absence of the protection of the State that comes only through and by the agency of politics. This fact is so far true in the case of the Negro people that it applies to all of the people of the country and to all business of whatever sort; the present hard times, in the midst of abundant harvests, being ascribed on all hands to the policies of the Democratic party in its attitude toward all business, big and little, during the past two years, as well as to the period of seven years of controversy and legislation aimed at the business interests in the administration of President Roosevelt. The labor and business interests of the country and politics have become so far dependent the one upon the other as to be really inseparable. It stands to reason, as a matter of course, therefore, that the Negro can have no healthy industrial and economic growth in the absence of the protection of the State enjoyed by others and which is equally necessary to both of them. We are indebted to the Hampton Workman for July for the full text of the splendid address of Major, Robert R. Moten, delivered before the Southern Sociological Congress, at Memphis, last May, entitled "The Negro and the South's Industrial Life." The address is one of the clearest and ablest we have read upon the subject in a long time, as it may well be, as Major Moten has grown up with the Southern industrial and educational movement of the past twenty-five years; and has kept pace in growth with it. He is one of the younger men of the race who has grown with the work in the South and contributed to the growth, as one of the executive officers of the Hampton Institute. He opened his paper with the following statement of fact of general information and interest:
The census of 1910 shows that two out of every five persons engaged in gainful occupations in the sixteen Southern States are Negroes. Of the entire Negro population in those sixteen Southern States, 63 per cent are in some form of industrial occupation; while only 47 per cent of the white people are thus engaged. Of all the Negroes who are engaged in industrial activities 60 per cent. are agricultural workers. The large majority of industrial workers in the South are on the land; and this is especially hopeful so far as the Negro is concerned. It is also significant that the number of Negroes engaged as agricultural laborers is about the same, as it was fifty years ago, though the Negro population has increased nearly 150 per cent. during that period. Something like a million Negroes have helped in agricultural laborers to farmers, there being, according to the census of 1910, something like 890,000 in this class.
Major Moten shows that the South is so far dependent upon the Negro as the main labor supply that, after all the effort that has been made to induce immigrants to settle in the South, less than 5 per cent. have so far, done so, a large percentage of the 5 per cent. having settled in the cities rather than in the country districts. Of the splendid future before the South, Major Moten says:
One reasonably familiar with the situation does not doubt that the South, within the next few decades, because of its splendid soil and climate, its abundant rainfall, its special adaptation to the raising of cotton, its new agricultural wealth which demands scientific advice of agriculture, will become one of the most important agricultural sections of the nation and the world. It is, therefore, important not only that labor and capital should work in harmony, but it is even more important that there should be inter-racial sympathy and co-operation along all lines of economy and civic endeavor.
Finally, Major Moten reaches the following conclusion: It seems to me that the best means of cementing a more cordial, sympathetic, and helpful relationship between the two races is thorough, systematic training, and practical education for both races, which means loyalty and efficiency, and especially so for the more backward of the two races—the Negro.
Our struggle, then, to bring all the laborers of the South to the point where they can make of this Southland, where cotton still remains the economic king, what it should eventually become, must be first to feed, clothe, and house them properly.
For this they must be trained intellectually, morally, and spiritually; and for this training the white people, the directing class, must see that all labor black, as well as white, has a full and complete opportunity to get the very best, broadest, deepest, and highest that the Creator has given to all mankind.
There are plenty of agencies at work in the Southern States, with influential sympathizers outside of it, that are being wisely directed toward the accomplishment of the great destiny that should await the Southern people of both races, but ambitious politicians and half-baked editors do much to hinder the good work and to discourage those engaged in it, and to keep the people of both races in a state of agitated unrest, and to hinder to that extent the development of the peacable and lawful conditions that make most for their mutual sympathy and progress. It is to be hoped the tribe of all such will steadily grow less in numbers and influence.
of living, to develop to the highest that best energies they possess and the best resources of their country or their personal possessions. They do not want one revolution, or four, on their hands, and they are determined not to have them. Whether they shall have their way, or those who want the reverse shall have theirs is the fateful question which good and bad people have locked horns about all over the world.
DID JOHNSON HIPPO-
BROME 'EMY'
We live in an age when takerism has attained a masterful preeminence in all of the relations and affairs of life. "How to heat the game!" is the effort of most people from the cradle to the throne, in a straight line, and from the hovel to the palace in a crooked line. And the funny thing about it is that most people think they are honest, from the bishop in the most high places to the Slumite in the hyways and highways, with no place to lay his head and no daily bread in sight. They all see the dishonesty in others but not in themselves, and preach and write long discourses on the subject or swing on the gate and talk their neighbors into hysteria about John Doe's wickedness, sinfulness, and all that. It is very amusing, as the moment the money or goods or chattels or character of either one of them is assailed he seeks to get the most protection, the highest price for his goods and the highest rating for his precious character.
Take the fighting game, for example. We are bound to be amused at the universal verdict of the daily papers that Jack Johnson and Frank Moran had a frame-up, and that Johnson made the frame and swiped the bigger share of the money in the Paris fight. They all insist, with here
and there an exception, that Johnson could have bested Moran in short order, but allowed him to go the twenty rounds in order to cover the betterts and increase the value of the moving picture films. In short, Johnson fought to win and to make the most out of the mill, and not to please the English and American people, who had blacklisted him and all other black and yellow fighters. He did right. Every general should fight his battles in his own way, and not as his opponent wants hint to do it. We do not approve Mr. Johnson, but we do approve his ring methods, in Paris and Reno, of whipping his opponent and winning the big money, in his way, and not as his white enemies think that he should do it, and we recommend the methods to Negroes everywhere as winning methods. White men do not ask them how to win out, and they should not ask white men to show them how to do so:
Jack Skelly, who says he is a sporting writer of thirty years in the game, writing in the 'Trenton Daily State Gazette, and avowing that color-prejudice has nothing to do with his judgment in the matter, charges that all of the Negro fighters of the past and present were, as schumers, better schumers than the white ones, which is a compliment, and winds up his estimate with the following sweep of the last word:
In fact, Gans in his early career was mixed up if many hippopotamuses. He would always allow a second or third rater to get to a draw, provided he got the lion's share of the plunder. This was also the financial tactics of Joe Walentt. Many an easy mark he would let stay if the money was coming his way. In fact, I've found that the great majority of Negro fighters could be fixed before a mill with the long green. This has been my experience during the past thirty years. There may have been some exceptions, such as Jackson and Dixon, but they were very few indeed. Study
their courage, yourself and see if I'm not near right.
Now, what is true of white fighters is also true of black ones, they are crooks of a crooked game, and when the white whipped crooks admit that the black crooked crooks "are the slickest," as well as the champion besters in the mix-up, we have the whole verdict made up by white men against themselves, and a humiliating verdict it is! The white hopes in all directions are showing that they are afarid of the Negro and the Jew in fair competition, and then will fail in the effort to bar them out of the game of win or lose.
DEMOCRATS ELECT A
DEAD MAN.
DEAD MAN.
The Democratic party contains a great many live men who are dead, who have been walking over their graves since the close of the Slave War, as the sons and grandsons—and even great granddons of those who enslaved their fellow men and gave sons and daughters to their slave women. Now and then one of them is buried and a great noise is made over the matter in the local newspapers, and by the orators of the locality who never allow an opportunity to pass without again "shouldering the fun and show how fields are lost and worse." Some of these dead men sit in the Federal Congress, and when they speak it is in the voice and manner of dead men, slaving over dead issues and rejoicing in scattering abroad the sentimental stink of race-hatred and prescription which should be allowed to slink away in silence and be heard no smelt any more.
A Macon, Ga., dispatch of July 8, tells the following sad story of the absentmindedness of some of the live men who are lead:
W. J. Moseley, who died ten years ago, was elected a member of the Bilb County Democratic Executive Committee in the recent county primary.
Two thousand voters cast ballots for him without knowing that for a decade Moseley was in his grave. A relative, who had read in a newspaper of his election, today informed the county officials of the error.
It will be a, great day in the Southern States when all of its dead men who are alive shall be buried in six feet of earth, and are forgot, so that the live men of them who are not dead may take up and do the great work of the home, the church and the State without the fear and trembling which the ghosts of the dead past insist upon forcing upon those of the present.
THE N. Y. MAIL AND PRESIDENT WILSON.
The New York Evening Mail in a masterly way dissects President Wilson's Fourth of July oration at Philadelphia and calls attention in pithless criticism to the suggestion that the peons of Mexico shall be allowed to have a "look-in" in connection with their government while ignoring the fact that one-third and more of the population of the South, composed in the main of black men of character, substance and ability are denied anything that even smacks of a "look-in." Such inconsistency is typical for the Democratic party which gries for freedom for the peon in Mexico, the Negrito in the Philippines, but ignores the Negro in the South. The Mail truly says:
Mr. Wilson is humannely sympathetic with the disfranchised Mexican peons; but these disfranchised Americans are not peons. They/are not now illiterate, but are a people for wohm good schools are maintained; who can read and write; who speak the language of the country, read its literature, are interested in its history, its men; its public proceedings; and who are not disfranchised because they are illiterate, but only because they are black.
Mr. Wilson has seen these people in our own country enfranchised in a struggle in which many thousands of lives and millions of treasures were mighty written in the constitution of the United States: "The right of citizens to vote shall not be denied because of 'race, color or previous condition of servitude.' He is sworn to obey this charter of citizenship; yet apparently it does not give him any congeny that, after all was done to enfranchise them, they are deprived of the vote by one pretest or another in a third of the states.
We published in THE AGE last week the whole editorial as it appeared in the Evening Mail, and it would be worth while to know President Wilson's thoughts, and ideas after reading this exposure of his apparent hypocrisy in advancing freedom for the peon in Mexico and by his silence, consenting to the disfranchisement of the Negro in the United States.
HARRIET TUBMAN WAS
A MODERN PRISCILLA
Prevented by other engagements from
being present at the unveiling,
a table by the memory of Harrie Tubman
by the citizens of N. Y. on
June 12. Rev. James. Edward Mason, secretary of Livingston College, Salisbury, N. C., one of the incorporators of the Tubman Home, wrote the following tribute, to Harriet Tubman and it was published in a recent issue of the Auburn, N. Y.
Advertiser-Journal.
Over 35 years have elapsed since I met for the first time this remarkable personality, Bishop J. J. Clinton, was conducting the Geneseo Annual Concert of musical exercises; were held in the long, one-aligned frame Zion A. M. E. Church, on Washington street. The love feast was practically ended but the enraphed songs were sung by one word out loud the winds, and one word bylistened with rapture. I was seated near the altar, facing the audience. Four pews from the front, on my right, a woman with shoulders sloping down a stoop was standing in the ward; She stood broad forehead, piercing eyes, thin lips and strong masculine features.
Harriet Tubman a Modern Priscilla.
At the close of her thrilling selection, she was called to her mission: a heating voice. I understood that her impediment resulted from a violent blow which broke her skull when she was struck by a monkey to God's goodness and long-suffering. Soon she was shouting and so were others. She possessed such endurance, vitality and magnificence, that Harriet Tubman—the "Underground Railroad Moses." Here was a modern Priscilla, a prophetess, telling out of the fullness of her heart God's revelations to her in the secret of His presence.
We have met on many important occasions during the intervening years, and we have met in private and public homes of the wealthy; in private and in public place of responsibility, in the community determined, generous, ostentatious, race-loving, cheerful, heroic soul. A many-chorded harp was her broadly melodic voice, a very touch of her rasc's sensual旅
The epoche in which she first saw the light was memorable. Napoleon had returned triumphantly from Egypt and was arranging military expeditions. The French armies were barring Wellington's entrance to Spain. Public attention here was centered upon the possibility of a conflict between Amelie and Great Britain, which would most fiery and momentous here all of our national existence.
Knew No Fear.
As Daniel in the lions' den and the Hebrew children in the Beryl, furnace, forge, and forgelessly. Above, the sights and crowds of her sorely smitten people she heard the voice of the Unseen saying, "She rested upon Him. Implicitly, hence what of difficulties? What of dangers? These only incited her to imitate her mother, and her defense. What could must do unto her" -She rested in the cleft of the Rock of Ages. No nights was too long for her mission -Back and forth, as the years came and went, she faithfully pursued her way. Her perseverance, the prologue of old. Before her remarkable activities ended, over 400 of her brothers and sisters were guffed by her from the house of bondage to the
Tubman Home an Asylum for Needy.
The Tubman Home, (her private residence, in your city), was for many oppressed and unfortunate, irrespective of nationality. In sunshine she was willow, and in storm she was onk. Through summer's heat, through autumn's blast, winter's frost and spring's frost, she found at the post of duty. She have the best of her life, the best she possessed for the benefit of others. Her's was an inspiring service, with bigh and excalled ends. From the lowest to the highest in a commanding attitude, to be admired by queens, to stand before kings and to be honored of marking.
When can the Afro-American pay the debt of gratitude they owe their ancestors Jean of Are, this modern Amazon? If our standard is to be, determined here or hereafter by a conscientious person, her will be a bolt station. Who were her associates? Through the memorial struggles for emancipation and the preservation of human liberty, she will be a bolt station. Lloyd Largarion, the flower of New England culture, and peerless author, Wendell Billsig, the eminent Christie Chus, Summer, the myriad-minded pulpitcher, Henry Ward Beecher, the reformer and literary poet, whose misfortune fire, William I. Seward, Harriet Beecher Stow, Julia Ward Howe, Susan I. Anthony, the illimitable and eloquent, Frederick Doughus, and the centuries Abraham Lincoln.
With such eminent personages she forms a part in a galaxy of imperishable chars, and forget for a good reason the flushed face that waited hopefully for the command to a higher sphere. She too, with other immortals, and objects on her shoulder, beyond the globe, Death her was not the folding of philos but the spreading of wings. Not the closing of prison bars but the opening of gates, to the world of light and love. Yonder, in your Panthéon of glory rests all that is mortal in her embrace, moving onward and almighty moving onward with the fabled music of the spheres; will look down upon many elevated mounds, awakening presences of the Arca-Americas and lovers of liberty
in all lance, we spot will be invoked with deeper interest than where her precious form mingles with its appreciative form, to appreciate her meritorious work. But in years to come, lover of what is best garland above her grave.
The Tubman home should be a mecca for Afro-Americans in particular, and patrols generally; that the rising youth, learning how to live, must lesson how noble it is to live for others, and the elevation of their native land.

Raley. Although the town is ar ¢&-
clisively Negro owned and populated
towns when a white man puts in ap-
pearance here: as is frequently the
case, on, business crrands.. he is -not
subjected to. the “diserimination, and
Segregation to which Negroes are
not infrequently subjected in white-
governed’communitics. In=this Ne-
gro town a white man is accorded
the’ Negro’s sincere desire to return
good for evil. :
In Boley the spirit of harmony is
so manifest, the simple life . is. so
prevalent,’ with just a touch ‘of ‘the
‘strenuous, as to make one feel” per-
fectly contented in’ this, black Ar-
cadia, and yet conscious that he is in
a-real, live, wide-awake town,
iitittle has been said or -written
about this town, the largest Negro
municipality!in America. Its gitizens
are too busy making it an exemplifi-
cation sof race progress and race
unity to advertise to the world, in
bold-face type,.that Boley is on the

JGHN LEUBRIE HILL .
Whose Musical Comedy, “My Friend from Kentucky,'*will be
presented at the Lafayette Theatre by the Darktown
. Follies Company, opening Monday Night, July 20.
“FOLLIES” AGAIN UPTOWN
» J. Leubrie Hill's Darktown. Follics,
whieh cijoyedSieh-T phienomedial” tain
at the Lafayette Theatre some months
ago, will return to “Harlem next week
{or a short stay, opening Monday, July
20, at the pppulir Seventh avenue house
for a week's engagement.; The theatre
management announces that- there will
be no changd in prices despite the large
attraction offered, and that seats (none
reserved) for matinees will be 5 and 10
“cents and evenings 10, 15 and 25 cents.
© Not: te’ change the continuous show
policy Gi*the Lafayette, the following
Program will be observed next week:
Motion pictures: from 1.30 to 2.50, show
frogh 2.30 10 5.30, motion pictures irom
§:30‘to 8.30, show from 830 to 11.15.
Single. reel pictures will be run between
the acts of the show.
A number of Harlem favorites will
be seen with the show, including Happy
Julius Glenn, Gaines & Brown, Evon
Robinson, Anthony Byrd, Alice Ramsey,
Toots Davis, Ada Guy, Hamilton White
Sallie Byrd, Tiny Ray, Helen Baxter,
Eugene Perkins, Johnnie Peters and his
Four Dancing Girls, Ethel Williams,
Irene Baptist, Mae Brown and’ Effi
Hallaman, A singing and dancing
chorus of thirty will be one of the fea-
tures of thes production.
The big business being done at the
+Lafayette Theatre for this time of the
year, is still’ the talk of local theatrical
‘circles. Megsrs. Morgansiern & Walton
gave their patrons another: highly enter-
taining and evenly balanced bill the first
half of the week. There was not a
weak act: Those two real-artists, Fid-
dler & Shehton—were headliners and hail
no difficulty convincing Harlem theatre-
goers why the act works steadily on the
larger circuits both winter and summer.
There is not a more retined and enter-
taining act in vaudeville than that ‘of
Fiddler & Shelton's. The members of
this well-known team are more “dressed
up” than ever, having discarded evening
dress for frock coats and gray trousers,
which are fresh from*the workshop of
Lucius Jones, Harlem's colored theatri-
cal tailor.
Evon Robinson and Alice Ramsey. are
winning applause at each “performance
in their act, which goce big. -They are
singing’and dancing well, wearing fetch-
ing costumes and have a strong finish,
using “At the Rall, That's All,” assisted
by four male singérs in a box.
. Jones & Cisco, who have quite.a repu-
tation in Harlem as society dancers, live
‘up.to the expectations of their many
admirers, pleasing in their interpretation
of the Modern Dances.: "
Bassilero, with his double voice,
Loultan & Huber, dancers of ability,
and Marr & Robinson, comedy, acrobats,
also scored. Fiddler & Shelton and
Evon Robinson and Alice Ramsey have
heen held over for the second half.
Harrison Stewart, Ora Criswell, the
Eight Honeysuckles, Seyah and Jack
Fine were-on the bill, the second half of
last week*™ | w * = 2 ‘
.yA. 0. W. TANGO PICNIC.
‘To-night’ is the time when from all
directions the people will have Manhat-
tan, Casino as the common ohjective
paint, for to-night Aida Overton Walker
will pull off her Tango Picnic. *
Naturally Miss Walker will -herself
he the center of attraction, but, she. hias
surrounded herself with such a galaxy
of talent as would never appear on the
same bill at the same time under dif
ferent circumstances, Next to. Miss
Walker the Fan .Fan Club of Newark
is arousing anticipatory curiosity, for the
Fan Tan Trot which will"he danced by:

Women in Work for Social Prestige.
A charge has been made in vain that many of our women in this work because it affords them without effort and gives them who pay the bills, that a number of the women of the type making the places, seek. Since a charge has become a numbness, the women could hardly rush to become "Social Writers. An euphonious, high-minded prestige and contact with society, but nothing less, than the name "missionary" in a modern dresser, that smells sweeter by aroma. Such women have about as much of the real missionary spirit as ladies and bad holiness. They go into the world with a moral ambitions and to feed the heights with a long spoon, at other peoples' weak expense. God forbid this poor, green girls should fall into the hands of one of these faddists.
Sporting Woman Would Give Shelter.
Had we gone to a "branch" where sports play, who are, after all, too conscientious to wear the livery of heaven and yet do service for the devil, and told them our condition, they would have opened the door and let us in, and we would have turned our course of polish through the place, but we are just as certain as we are that we are alive after that ordeal that there was room enough in that place for three more women. If this Y. W. C. A. movement among us desires to live, the workers and secretaries will have to be prepared to will-stand and the wisdom for real Christian work. In short, they must be women who practice what they preach.
A hospital for a great building for the New York, Y. W. C. A. is now on. I presume we poor mortals will have to travel to our curbstone and want to come out to meet our dependents to come out there to tell us that we cannot be accommodated. "No room in the Inn" will be the oft-repeated message to those without the dependents. This experience has already confirmed what I have heard again and again.
Minister Says Prejudice in Associations
one of the most distinguished preachers in America—a pastor in New York—in a letter written after he heard about the disgraveful treatment we received, said.
I am not at all surprised to see your experience at the Yale University Association in New York City. The Association, of men as well as women, has more prejudice to the future than any institution in this county. I had rather go to a school looking out for fellow-whites to be colored man than to the Dressmaking Association. The word "whiteness" ought to be used to describe the young women we turned away at midnight, to form the streets of New York; one of them more prominent on both sides of the ocean, perhaps, than any white member of that Association. They claim to stand for the position of character. This is a special illustration they give us in the women at a midnight upon the merces of New York men.
No friends. I write not to express my personal grievance; people of that time are obsessed of prayer and misgivings; I write to warn young women inasmuch going to this place after dark to sitize shelter, and expecting to follow in the air, the spirit of cordial hospitality and Christian worries. They are the prayer will be, they test them tilled with the Lowly Nazarene. Personally I remain no feeling against any I speak for a Cause. I would save my life for the girls of my race, my friends, in deeds.
Tours for the highest development
corridor womanhood.
Mrs. Cabaniss Explains.
Following Miss Burroughs' statement before the Federation, Mrs. Chilcott, the secretary of the Y. W. C. A. came forward and explained that inability to accommodate Miss Burroughs and her girls was due to lack of room, absolutely, that only one single bed was vacant, and that every effort had been made to look at Miss Burroughs' comfort by offering to secure accommodation in the immediate neighborhood by means of the telephone, which offered were declined by Miss Burroughs. Use of the phone was freely granted the travelers, and Miss Burroughs called up the Rev. Geo. H. Sime, pastor of Union Baptist Church, West 63rd street, but could not answer to her call. Dr. Sims was at the city.
We are representative submitted the statement written by Miss Burroughs to Mrs. Chilcott, and in reply to questioned information similar in the explanatory statement
to the executors of the W.Y.C. A, will
provide a formal statement in reply to the
issue Burroughs for publica-
tion weeks ago.
AD-ALL HOURS OF NIGHT
Frances Lawrence, 71% Stuyvesant
estate, was granted an injunction
by Supreme Court Justice J. Kelly, re-
straining her next door neighbor, Dr. Philip Berlenbach. 9 Stuyvesant avenue, a white man, from using his mechanical player incessantly. The judge declared that while occasional use of the piano, even after midnight, would not constitute a nuisance, its use continuously, night after night, into the small hours of the morning, constitutes a nuisance and should be enjoined.
It was declared also by the judge that the trouble was caused by bad blood between the parties, evidenced specially by the manner of Dr. Berlenbach in testifying. Next door neighbors for twenty years, the two families are not on speaking terms. Mrs. Lawrence was the first to take up residence.
Counselor Rufus, L. Perry was attorney for Mrs. Lawrence.
ASKS COURT TO PASS ON VOTE; BARRED AT POLLIS
Special to The New York Age
* CAMBRIDGE, Md. July 15.—As a result of the refusal of election judges in the Second Ward to allow H. M. St Clair to have watchers in the polling room during the election for City Council last Wednesday, court proceedings have been instituted by Mr. St Clair. He and Councilman Nehemiah Honey were nominated in the primaries here on June 7. Just before the polls opened last Wednesday, Mr. St Clair went into the polling booth and asked that he be allowed to have a watcher. This was refused and Mr. St Clair assumed that role himself until he could get into communication with the State's attorney for Dorchester County. The election judges ordered him put out of the polling room, but he did not leave until he was threatened with arrest. Claiming that he did not believe fair play possible under the circumstances, he refused to allow his fell-wors to vote for him and Honey had a walkover 'St Clair's friends say that Honey would have been defeated easily.

ge NEWS OF THE CHURCHES®:
‘Firsk: Emenenuel Chusch.
‘The services~ of. the” chufch were
largely attended during the éntire day,
many. visitors’ being present.
Pastor Bolden said that Immanuclism
in the Apostolic or Primitive Church
oi our Lord is ati inspiration to. us
The spirit was the unifier among them
and fervent love was the stimulator.
The object of their service was the
coming” of our Lord and His Kingdom.
This thought crystallized them into an
attractive, forceful and much tilked of
group. The following verse, though noi
intended for such, is a very high com-
pliment coming from their’ able oppon-
ents concerning them and their Lord:
“Now when they saw the boldness oi
Reter and John and perceived that shes
were unlearned and ignorant men, they
marvelied and they took knowledge that
they had been with Jesus.”
The work which the Apostles were
doing and the power in the name of
the Lord they were working among the
people, catised the leaders of the coun:
cil ty hold secret sessions against them.
The minutes of the session shows that
they recognized the power of the Apos-
les, and endeavored to" put an end to
it by threatening theny and command-
ing that they speak henceforth to no
man in the name off Jesus (the nerve
of these would be usurpers and censors
ever the hearts and mouths of men).
We believe we are confronting their
kind today, but knowing that our Lord.
is with us, we are to push His work
on and press toward the mark of the
high calling which is in Christ Jesus,
our Lord. .
The company of Welievers ot to-
wether after these threats and tatked-the
matter over among themselves. ‘With
one mind in prayer they told our Lord
all about their toubles. ‘They. asked
of Him guidance, help and.” specific
signs as a mamfestation of His prés-
ence among ‘them, When they had
prayed the place was shaken where they
had assembled sogether and they were
all filled with the Holy Ghost and spoke
the word of Gud with boldness.“ \nd
the mulutude of them that believed
were of ane heart and one soul neither
siti ably of them aught of things which
he possessed was his own, but-they had
all things common> and with reat
pawer gave the Apostles withess of the
resurrection of the Lord Jesus. Aud
Great grace was upon all. Fi
‘The certain ‘and definite stand whieh
the Apostles“taok, their increasing and
ever-widenmg influence, their leader, the
Apostle Peter, miraculous power ‘and
highly illumined personality, stirred the
self-eonceited, jealous high priest and
his followers to show their envious
feeling: thenre, they seized them and
ast them inte the commen prison, “but
Hiceangel of the Lord hy night opened

speak in the temple to the peaple all

upposition “and persecution, “only tend
to consolidate and develop the’ divine
strength and power that is’ inherent in
it. The Gamaliel policy of patience and
‘confidénce-in ultimate truths would be
a good thing for the social hfe of man
today. “He said refrain irom these
‘men and let them alone, for if the
council or this work ‘be of men it will
rome to naught; but if it be of God
ye cannot overthrow it'lest haply ye be
found even to fight. against God.”
Miss A. M. Young, the efficient ab-
sistant secretary of the Sunday School,
conducted -the opening exercises of the
Sabhath School. In spite of the ex-
tremely hot weather, a large number
of scholars were out.’ At the conclusion
of the lesson study, the new superin-
tendents of the various departrients of
the school were installed by Pastor
Bolden. The first outing of the school
