Special to THE NEW YORK AQZ
TUSKEGEE INSTITUTE, Alp., Jan. 26.—
To one who was present when the first
Tuskegee Negro Conference met at the
Tuskegee Institute, twenty-four years
ago, and who followed the conferences
held during the subsequent ten years,
something was missing from the monster
crowds which met on January 20 to
visit or have part in the Tuskegee Negro
Conference of farmers which has just
closed.
This "something" was the once familiar type of old men and women, carelessly dressed, primitive, timid, but ready to stand up in the conference and tell about their troubles and hindrances. Many times during the day persons who saw the earlier conferences were heard to remark that there was a difference—that the old bandana handkerchief is seldom seen now at the conference, that coattess, discouraged men seldom appear as of old, and that few persons ever come now to tell of their "troubles."
How Program Has Changed.
The old men and women were here to-day in numbers as of yore; but the habits, manners, dress and general views of things which made them so picturesque some twenty years ago have largely disappeared.
Twenty-four years ago the Tuskegee Negro-Conference was started with the idea of helping encourage the people to get out of debt, and to abandon the one-room cabins for better and more comfortable homes. Steadily the conference "pegged" away with these objects in view. Slowly improvements began to be observed, and year after year the farmers began to come back and tell proudly how they had gotten off of debt and had added more rooms to their houses.
The conference widened its program and began working for better teachers better ministers and longer school terms. Very soon there was added to the program a campaign for the ownership of homes and land. Visitors to the conference, from all parts of the South, caught the inspiration of the slogan "Buy a home and some land; get a good preacher and keep him; lengthen the school term and employ a worthy teacher"; and these visitors went back home and sent the message far and wide. If you can examine the trouble to examine the United States Constitution, you will see the proceedings of the Tuskegee Conference he will find that Negroes made the greatest advance in home ownership during the period—1900-1910—in which the Tuskegee Conference was hammering home the entreaty to colored people in the South. "Buy a home! Get some land, if only a few acres!"
Co-operation Emphasized.
And so the program has widened until to-day the dominant note was and is crop diversification and the raising at home of food enough for man and beast. The old type visitor and delegate has gone, but in its place is another made-up of men and women who are hearting how to live.
Always practical, always determined to examine and discuss those questions which immediately touch the life of the great masses of Negroes in the rural sections of the South, the Tuskegee Annual Negro Conference concluded a remarkable session here to-day—remarkable in that all generalities were laid aside and all agencies which the Tuskegee Institute could employ—its agricultural and academic faculties, the views of visitors, the national Negro Farmer, a journal published here, and the experiences of the farmers and workers—were directed toward showing just how the people can meet the present hard times in the South caused by the failure of their cotton market.
Agricultural Parade.
It was realized and special stress laid upon the fact that the colored people must cooperate heartily with the owners of large plantations and with those merchants who furnish supplied to colored farmers, in reducing the amount of food and supplies which have to be brought. Accordingly, every speech made, every report given, gathered around the field of meeting the present hard work, and Dr. Booker Washington did not permit anyone to turn aside from the field. This twenty-fourth annual conference it is certain that not less than 1,000 people had gathered—farmers, their wives and children, teachers, min-

on the institute experiment plat. The process of ginning and grading cotton was exhibited while the parade moved; and, at the same time, quantities of home-made fertilizer composed of leaves, swamp muck, pine straw, barnyard manure, etc. were mixed in the presence of the beholders.
It is realized that the colored farmer will be encouraged to diversify his crops only as he is convinced that other products besides cotton, can be successfully grown on his own farm and by other colored farmers. Keeping this in mind; those in charge of the parade-loaded the farm crops/vision float with such crops as sweet potatoes, oats in sheaves, sack oats, oat-straw hay, and crab-grass hay. In addition, there were shown the farming implements needed to handle these crops, such as a thresher, baler and seeder.
Cause of Hard Times.
On the orchard float were shown a tree planter, and young, men pruning and spraying fruit trees; while the truck garden showed a variety of vegetables and indicated how they are prepared for market and exhibited the method of selling them from a wagon. Other floats showed a dairy and cremery, a poultry, piggery, and meat house; from the canning factory; horses and mules; cotton and corn; individual floats; the new and the old—rural church, etc.; the rural school; hospital aid—children house. Slowly the long line passed from the starting point, to Carnegie Lilary, where a monster reviewing stand had been erected for the special guest. The spectacle was imposing, but eloquent in its showings of what can be done on the farm through intelligent efforts.
At last the long procession reached the chapel, where, at 11 o'clock, the session began.
the chapel was packed. Prominent educators, white and colored, had seats on the platform. Around the walls were a number of charts showing some of the causes of the present hard times, the main one being that too much cotton and too little corn are produced. For instance, it was shown that Negrens grow $340,000,000 worth of cotton and only $161,000,000 worth of all other farm products combined, a ratio of one dollar's worth of cotton for every forty-five cents' worth of all other farm products.
The charts showed in detail the value of all farm products grown in various States by Negro farmers for every dollar's worth of cotton. To give but a few examples: The Arkansas colored farmer grows 30 cents' worth of all other crops for every dollar's worth of cotton he produces; in Georgia, the colored man produces 40 cents' worth of other crons for his dollar's worth of cotton; in Louisiana, 55 cents' worth
DR. F. A. McKENZIE I8
NEW FISK PRESIDENT
At a meeting of the board of trustees of Fisk University, recently held at the offices of Paul D. Cravath, New York, Dr. Fayette Avery McKenzie, at present associate professor of Sociology, at the University, 011, Ohio, Columbus, was elected president. Those present at the meeting included Paul D. Cravath, Dr. C. J. Kyder, Dr. L. Sipimois, Dr. A. F. Beard, and Dr. Booker A. Washington. The absent trustees endorsed, in advance, a formal action taken by the trustees at the meeting just held at Mr. Cravath's office.
A long and exhaustive investigation has been made to secure a man in every way fitted for the position. The trustees are now satisfied that they have found the right man. He is recommended and endorsed by Dr. Thomas-Jesse Jones of the Bureau of Education at Washington, Dr. H. B. Frissell, Principal of the Hampton Institute, Governor Martin G. Brumbaugh of Pennsylvania, and many others. Dr. McKenzie's record is a notable one.
He received the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Sociology from the University of Pennsylvania in 1900; was assistant professor of Economics and Sociology at the Ohio State University for five years, and since 1912 has served as associate professor of Sociology at the University of Ohio. As an organizer of social settlement work, Dr. McKenzie is without-peer in the country. He is the first, and has been to date the only president of the Public Recreation Commission of the City of Columbus, and has done a splendid work in organizing and developing that, feature of work under the 'auspices of the City of Columbus and the University of Ohio. It is expected that he will begin actual work as president of Fisk next July.
NO COLOR LINE FOR
CINCINNATI MAYOR
Special to Tue. New York Act
CINCINNATI. O., Jan. 26—Mayor Spiegel has issued orders to Safety Director Holmes that the word "white" he stricken from rules of qualification for membership in the fire department. Several days ago the civil service commission rejected six applications of Negroes which had been filed, and this action caused a protest by the Negroes who claimed that it was a violation of their constitutional rights.
Following the mayor's order, R. B. Thompson, 427 Mill street, appeared before Surgeon Hogen, Box and Hall, but was rejected because of twenty-one pounds over weight and deficiency in height. The mayor has stated that so long as he is in office there will be no distinction because of color or race in applications for public positions John S. Fielding, president of the Fraternal League, composed of the Negro organizations of the city, directed the appeal to the mayor which brought about the change in service requirements.
ALABAMA SCHOOL IS
DAMAGED BY FIRE
Special In the New York Act
GEIGER, ALA, Jan. 26.—The West Alabama Agricultural and Industrial Institute, Arthur W. Mitchell, principal, lost the chapel and dormitory by fire on the morning of Wednesday, January 13, about 10 o'clock. The principal and teachers were biny hearing classes when a pupil gave the alarm. The roof was ablaze and was only by the most strenuous effort that the school piano and some of the trucks belonging to the headquarters wereaved. President Mitchell in an effort to save some of the students' effects was caught in an upper story and had to jump from an attic window to save himself. He was badly shaken but not seriously hurt. The buildings will be replaced with brick structures. Loss suffered was about $15,000, on which an insurance of only $3,000 was carved.
Harry Baker, born tenor, 129 West 32d street, founder of the Harlem Conservatory of Music. Each offers instruction in music, vocal education and voice music, he developing his great competence and well-known projects of singing grand
Mr. Baker requires the necessary qualifications for operatic work and has set about to become its competent. John Lorenz of the Metropolitan Opera House is giving induction in voice culture. Prof. Hale, of the Cincinnati College, and the foundation on the piano, Mrs.ville Charlain gave additional instruction on the piano and in harmony and sight singing. Mr. Baker has given several successful recitals in and around New York singing selections from the well-known operas and rendering some excellent readings. The last recital was given January 26, 1914, and the next will be rendered April 26, 1915.
Mr. Baker opened the first school of voice, culture in Harlem and has had very successful pupils. As a teacher of elocution he points with pride to the work of Miss A. Shoulders, Mme. Lott Green and Mys. Laura Callaway, Mme. Auffray, Jackson and Mme. Venus Whittington have shown marked development and advancement in voice culture under Mr. Baker's tutorage. He has about thirty pupils.
Gainful Occupations.
Other successful persons in Harlem who are in gainful occupations are as follows:
A. Pendleton is a preacher of a story at 55 West 132d street, where he supplies many hundreds of customers with groceries and delicatessen foodstuffs, including many products from the South—peas, beans, meal, sweet potatoes and colored greens. Mr. Pendleton plans to enlarge his store and will soon have twice the present space. In the new store Mr. Pendleton plans to deal more extensively in the products of the South which are different from the products raised in the North. His competitors have not realized the market for Southern commodities, hence there is almost no competition. Eugene Braston is porter.
J. H. Deville, 124- West 132d street,
is manager and proprietor of the "Little
Tailor Shop." Low rent, made possible
by utilizing the ground floor of his
residence for the shop, enables Mr.
Deville to clean and press suits for 25
centes each. Suits for ladies and gentsen
are made to order and, Mr. Deville is one of the few cohorted men who buys and sells slightly used clothes.
At 2219, Seventh avenue Daniel J.
Mason is manager of the Turner
clothes, hat and shoe cleaning parlors.
The shop is noted for the excellent
service given its patrons.
Plans to Get Business.
C. Brown has recently moved his tailor shop from 451 Lenox avenue to 46 West 132d street, where he has more space and cheaper rent, which enables him to give his customers better service. Mr. Brown believes in keeping his business before the public. Whenever a
HARVEY BAKER
new family moves in the vicinity Mr. Brown immediately calls upon them and explains what he has to offer. After he has obtained a hearing, in this manner and follows it up with good treatment and excellent work, the members of the family are always his customers. Mr. Brown also makes at frequent intervals a personal canvass of the homes in his neighborhood and leaves advertising matter at each house. J. W. Smith conducts the Murray House at 102 West 132nd street, and serves meals from 7 a. m. to 9 p. m. He offers neatly furnished rooms with baths and all modern improvements. The lower floor of the private house is
a well-fitted-up 'dining' room, in which Miss Elizabeth White, an experienced waitress, renders perfect service. Mrs, Lizzie Smith is cook. 'Mr. Smith managed a restaurant at 322' West '41st street for five years.
Young Girl Tonsorialist.
George Godfrey, 15 West 132d street, manager and proprietor of the College Tonsorial Parlors, has been in the present location one year and uses three up-to-date white porcelain hydraulic barber chairs. The color scheme of the shop is white, and is kept neat and clean. Mr. Godfrey is assisted by W. J. Hamilton and Miss Reila Major, a young girl. Miss Major has been, with him about five months and is rapidly becoming an expert tonsorialist. Mrs. A. M. Johnson conducts a rooming house with dining on the ground floor at 130 West 132d street. Mrs. Johnson's house is more on the order of a private home, as her roomers have been with her for five to twelve years. Mrs. Johnson was formerly located at -265 West 53d street.
Mrs. Laura Buchanan, 328 West 53d street, has recently taken the agency for Mune, C. J. Walker's hair grower. Mrs. Buchanan has already given successful demonstration to a large number of patrons.
NATIONAL HEALTH WEEK
FROM MARCH 31 TO 37
FROM MARCH 21 TO 27
The following communication has been sent out by the president of the National Negro Business League, present at the observance of national health week by the Negroes of the country;
Tuskegee Institute, Ala.—After carefully considering the whole matter, I am authorised by the executive committee of the National Negro Business League to invite the following organizations, as well as others to be napped organizers, in the league in observing a public health Week:
Daily and weekly newspapers; health journals; The National Medical Association; The National Association of Teachers of Colored Women's Clubs; The National League on Urban Conditions among Negroes; The National Association of Teachers of Colored Women's Press Association; the bishops and other officers of colored religious denominations; State Medical Associations; Annual church conferences; National associations; several organizations; Colored organizations; Farmers' Conferences; Farmers' Improvement Societies; Churches, schools, and other organizations; Alabama Louisiana, North Carolina, and other states special Health Days have at one time or another been observed. For some years the organization Leadership May Motton, has observed a Health or Cleanup Week. It is thought to be well to unite all these efforts into one effort to the Virginia effort. It is thought the race will welcome this opportunity to unite all these efforts is one great national health agreement, and this will be a fundamental and enthulism from the unified movement.
Health Necessary to Success.
Without health and until we reduce our rich death rate it will be impossible for us to have permanent enduring fitness in our education and to show other evidences of progress. Without health and long life all else fails!
The following facts will illustrate something of the need and importance of this health movement:
450,000 Negroes in the South alone are seen in all the annuaries in the sickness of these 450,000 Negroes is $725,000,000.
112,000 Negro workers in the South alone are seen in all the annuaries in the sickness of these 112,000 Negroes are presentable.
225,000 Negroes of the working class, the annually 100,000 of these deaths can be preserved.
The annual funeral expenses of Negroes in the South alone are $150,000,000. $650,000 of this amount could be saved.
Sickness and death cost Negroes of the South alone, $100,000,000; fifty million of this amount could be saved.
Sickness and death rate. Death disease and enthrone health and long life. We may differ, on other subjects, but there is no room for differences here. Let us make a plan of education and to show other evidences of progress.

WARN TEACHER TO MOVE ATTEMPT TO FIRE HOUSE Special to THE NEW YORK ACE
NEW ORLEANS, LA, Jan. 26—Following a warning sent in November that he should move out of his handsome home at 1112 Bordeaux street, and "move across the street in those small houses suited for Negroes," which warning was signed "Committee of White Men," Professor Bell, teacher in one of the schools frustrated; an attempt to burn his house when he was awakened and found paner and matting afire in his kitchen. The floor had been saturated, with oil.

WAVE OF INDIGNATION INCITED BY LYNCHING WOMEN SWEEPS LAND
Excoriations of the State of Georgia By Leading Newspapers, North and South Brings Statement From Governor
GOV. SLATON SAYS CRITICISMS ARE UNFAIR TO GA.
Makes Comparison of Labor Revolts in Northern States Against Organized Law With Outrages by Mobs on Helpless and Unarmed Prisoners.
BUT GEORGIA DAILIES DEMAND PUNISHMENT OF CRIMINALS
Strong Protests and Letters from Representative Neges Voice Attitude of Race Under Stress of its Affliction and Call on the Truehearted People of the country for Justice. New York Globe Dissects Governor's Statement.
The lynch, on Thursday, January 14, of two men and women by a mob of white fiends at Monticello, Ga., has stirred the country from one end to the other. Not only have the colored people held meetings and denounced the outrage, but many of the white people are expressing, in unmeasured terms, horrified indignation that lawless molls should be exercising so complete a sway.
specially condemn the South, or to condemn Georgia? Is it not dictated by a high sense of justice to declare that contempt for the law and its orderly processes is prevalent so a more or less extent everywhere, but has no particular geography? Obstant not the good people in every section of this country use their best efforts in an educational work and other efforts to urge upon the people the benefit of obeidence to law and respect for their institution?
No, I approve in Paris endangering life, in London we find some antigued people blowing up mansions and palaces and even threatening Westminster Hall. The same is through in other European countries.
Many travelled all over the South in perfect country, we believed, but United States, only to be murdered in the city of Belfast. President Garfield yielded his life in the
Just one week exactly after the Monticello outrage, on Thursday, January 21, Peter Morris, a Negro, was taken from the custody of the sheriff of Early County, Ga., and lynched. Advices from Arlington, Ga., are that Morris was charged with the murder of a farmer, but no proof had been adduced to show his guilt.
The outbreaks of mob violence, taking such peculiarly atrocious shape, aroused a storm of criticism from the press of the country. That this criticism of Georgia has been effective is shown by the fact that Governor John M. Slaton has issued a long statement, in which he attempts the defense of the State by etting instances in Massachusetts and New Jersey where the law was defied and lives lost as a result of revolt against the constituted authorities. He did not state that outbreaks in Massachusetts and New Jersey were by mobs against law officers and not against defenseless and helpless men and women in the custody of the law. The Governor's statement is as follows:
I am receiving copies of culturals from newspapers and from the University in Monticello, and contain a centuries of the State of Georgia. One editorial begins: "There are dark days in Georgia. This is a demonstration of the attitude of the State, of the crime in Limerick County."
: Declares Criticisms Unfair.
In perfect good humor I submit to the fun-
mished editors of these papers that the crita-
tion and spirit of their articles is unfair to
Georgia, and that the examination of the
law there has been less against the
law in this and sister States than in many
other sections from which these articles come,
beijing at Montpellier was done in the
mime, one previous intimation of attack,
and three others of defense officers
were masked and unknown. The crime sought
the protection of darkness and the escape of
southernness, we find in other sections of the
country. Hardly a year has elapsed since in
Massachusetts there was an open revolt for
weeks against the law, and it was necessary to call on soldiers to quell the insurrection
against the authorities existed in the open day.
Within a week a deputy sheriff shot into a
row of men in New Jersey, where there was
in open attack on life and property, and there
was an impeachment disregard of all Constitutional protection.
I am informed that a few years ago a
Negro shot a policewoman in New ork city and a
group of men pursued and beat every Negro
person. Similar incidents will be recalled as having
happened in Illinois and various portions of the
West. In one of the towns of Illinois the New-
ies were attacked and beaten, if not killed,
and the police were observed that these events took place in
populous communities, where there was every
power of municipal and State government to
control the malefactors, while in Montclair,
a rural county, the attack was unman-
flicted.
Lynchors Sent to enitentiary.
A few years ago in a county adjoining this a mob killed some Negroes and the good people of the community, through their grand jury, tried to kill a white man, a white men, who were found guilty, and three of them were sent to the penitentiary for life and four were sent to the penitentiary for varying charges. At Monticello, the good people, in mass meeting, condemned the offense of the lynchers and promised their aid in punishing the criminals; the court in Jauser County will shortly heed, the court in Monticello will shortly commit their best efforts in vindicating the law. As Governor of the State I have offered a reward, the largest amount allowed by law, of $10,000 for the arrest, with proof of convict the first five men, who shall be found guilty. The press of the South, with unannounced, has condemned the affair in Jauser county, and people everywhere in its incarment.
Some Farfetched Comparisons.
It is just and fair therefore, in view of the History of events taking place in the North and East, and every part of the nation, each day and recorded in the press dispatches, to es-
especially condemn the South, or to condemn Georgia? Is it not dictated by a higher sense of justice to declare that contempt for the law and order is ordained more or less extent everywhere, but has no particular geography? Ought not the good people in every section of this country use their bastardry to urge upon the national law the best attitude to law and respect for their institution?
We find Apaches in Paris endangering list; in London we find some misguided people blowing Westminster palaces and even threaten Westminster Hall; the same is through in other European countries. Mr. McKinley traveled all over the South in public protection while President of the United States Garfield inured in the city of Baffalo. President Garfield yielded his life, the capital of the nation.
I submit that everywhere are there illustrations of violence similar to that which occurred in Montecchio, and the fault cannot be defined by boundaries of latitude or language.
Georgia Papers Demand Action.
The reward offered by the Governor is $500 for the arrest, and conviction of five men of the mob, totaling $2,500, it remains to be seen whether it will be effective in uncovering any of the participants in the recent lynching. Comments from newspapers all over the country show unanimous condemnation of the Monticello mob. The Georgia white daily papers are outspoken and join in the general denunciation of mob law. Speaking of the Monticello victims and their status before the law, the Augusta Chronicle, published at Augusta, Ga., said: 'When they were put under arrest and were incarcerated in the county jail, they became charges of the State. The law then became particularly charged with their safe-guarding. The law was holding them for the law. Had them been held in their jurisdiction, person, helpless to defy the law, Had not taken to hold them to answer to the law. Had made them powerless to physically protect them. They, by numbers of men, should have been taken out and slam, was a defiance of the law, and an indigency to the law and a disregard of the law which must not be overridden, and which the law must justify. State must punish. Else, there will be no law, and might well have been set up as the law of our people. The Daily Constitution, published at Atlanta, Ga., declared editorially that if this outrage could go unpunished something is seriously wrong with the State, and that, it is a smear upon the good name of the State. The following is the editorial, with others from New York papers:
The announcement that Judge J. B. Park and Solitaire General Joseph K. Pattie of the benniger circuit, are investigating the details of the benniger circuit, will probably be taken by the executive department, is significant as indicating that the enormity of this horrible offense is so imminent that it will be encouraged in this state to lead encouragement to the hope that the perpetrators will be brought to justice and punished as they should be. In the case in many, many years has provoked such universal condemnation, as the Jasper county Lynchin, in which two Negro men and two women were convicted of a crime, has been executed by a mob, the vicious harm has been caused of operating a blind tiger, and of assaulting an officer who caught them in the act. In violating the law and they unjustly have been convicted through the usual process of law. But to resort to lynch law under these conditions is a lapse in brutality and barbarity which every decent Georgian must condemn.
It is a sad commentary upon law and order and the administration of justice in this State where things can happen without the offenders being caught. It is a sad commentary. Things of this kind smear the good name of the State and seriously react against its business, its prosperity, and its development. It is a sad commentary on this kind go unpunished in Georgia? It is something seriously wrong with the State.
It is quite natural that Georgians should feel keenly the criticism levelled at their State following the recent atrocious lynching at Montclair, where his son, and two daughters, that the threeright home is evidenced by a statement just issued by Governor Staton, in which he asserts that lawlessness is no more prevalent in Georgia than in New York, north and east, from which sections has come a flood of editorial censure. In brief, he thinks it exceedingly bad taste for the pot to call like black. No, he will question Governor Staton's statement that there is everywhere more or less contempt for the law and its orderly process. This contempt, as he says, has no priority to the law, but to the law itself, the L. W. W. labor troubles in Massachusetts some month ago, to the shooting of preacher attackers at Roosevelt, N. J., the other day; to the outrages in England. All the more matic of one kind or of other of lawlessness it is true, but pot of the lawlessness it 'encourage
ages the wanton butchery of helpless human beings
Lynch law is the most brutal and desperate form of crime. Only the most maddian of sentinel officers, and that, only on the ground that the misguided would presume to excuse appeal to what is known an the unwritten law. It is less demeaning than any other form of lawlessness known to us. It belongs to the days when there were no arts, no letters, no society, when man was in constant fear and danger of violent death, when the man was brutish and short. It is an insult to civilization.
Unfortunately for Georgia the impression that the south more or less condones the lynching of Negroes has become, well grounded in the history of the South, an poison to punish the perpetrators of such crimes. The racial hatred against the Negro, apparently inborn in many southerners, has often found free expression in unappealable outrages. In conference years, the Negro's year after year, no tone is left untroubled to further the propaganda against the Negro to derive him of the rights he is entitled to under constitution. "Jim Crowman" has run trial. Opinion has been carried to the utmost extreme.
Georgia, it may be said for, her, has been no more guilty of crime against the Negro than other southern states. If anything, perhaps she has been less intolerant of them. Governor Slater has been more intolerant of which lynched some. Negroes in a county joining the one in which the latest outrage occurred were sent to prison for the offense. He says, every effort will be made to punish those people of the anticivilian lynching. The good people of the State of Georgia press in denoufcing it and calling for swift recitative justice. It is to be hoped their prayers will be granted.
LYNCHING.
(From the New York Times.)
Use has bred a habit. No longer are lynchings committed solely for "the usual crime." A case, of disfurderly conduct, a case of resistance, or of murder, is the organized murder of in and even women. The evil has grown. The time is near, if indeed it is not already at hand, when the fact that a man is "shud nigger" will he enough to commit a murder. Lynchings are committed mostly by cowards, and quite largely by the riff-raff of the neighborhood, inspired by rum. But in most cases there are a few man heiress who are men of the elite, and the activity is the excuse of the whisky-sailed riff-raff who follow them. If an attempt is made to punish them, their standing in the vienna, their manager and pose, and the "sympathy of the victim," is the excuse of the concluding. Not until these men, the real criminal's, are sternly dealt with in some outstanding trial will the reproach that hangs over them be repressed, some by some Goon≠on, if some southern Judge should just once real interpidity and fearlessness of consequences in dealing with what has become a dastardly and common crime, lynching would be the only way, as any other fellow in the particular State.

THE RACE SPEAKS OUT
LAST Sunday morning a congregation or more than one thousand Negroes assented in St. Mark's Mt. Olive Church, the Rev W.H. Brooks pastor, West 51st street, New York City, gave expression to its demand for protection under the law in the following pro-terrorist which was unanimously adopted:
"We recent outbreaks of the most spirituous outbreak states of the South but especially in Montcloa, Georgia is deplorable.
"We enter our emphatic condemnation against lynching and mob violence wherever manifested, as being unchristian and unhuman for in many instances the pre-terrorist violence of the war the crime for which they are invoked.
"We earnestly appeal to all our people everywhere to live soberly, act orderly, respect the law and constitu-

tional authority and, in-return, demand simple protection of all the rights guaranteed us by the Constitution of the United States. We regularly commend the Press of the whole country for its justice and fearless utterances in behalf of Christian civilization and the impartial administration of the law; and sincerely approve the Office of the Governors of the Office of the States for their morale effort to bring to the face of Justice the guilty parties.
"No Government is strong enough to be indifferent, to the wrongs continually heaped upon ten millions of disastrous and highly disastrous of its justice and thereby grunted at its policy toward them, God is not dead." Letters are coming from all sections of the country, voicing the indignation and affrontance of the race because of the injustices heaped upon it and the outrage to which it is subjected. The following are some of the letters received at the Age office:
To the Editor of The Age.
I wonder if any of your 'Southern airways have considered the question of whether not a municipal corporation is liable for mob violence. The way in which 'our lives in the Southland hang in the distance lately is appalling. The slightest breeze might cause it to swing in the wrong direction, and the result is one too well known to the civilized world, or one with great deal of interest in our florid landscapes in the South and of the tough strides that they are making to better the civic and moral conditions among the colored people. Are they concerned in protecting that divine gift that they to all, the right to live? A serious question, possibly, had ever lived in the South and had changed the South, I would not feel like using some energetic and bright lawyer to commence proceedings on behalf of those who have been damaged because of mob violence. And I pray you of any action is ever taken, some day every day I meet it, our most successful Negro business who say a Negro lawyer is not qualified to look after Negro's interests.
While I have not examined the statutes of the various Statutes in which these, severe crimes have been and are cited in the view of the decision of the Supreme Court, Kansas decided last month, December, 1914, and reported in vol. 144 Pacific Reports at page 816. I cannot help but feel that some liability attaches to some municipal corporations in the South; municipal corporations is a Statute making cities liable for damages resulting from mob violence. The Court has decided in this case that the city was liable to damages, what damages do you think a municipality can make to a to where an entire family, including the weakest of the human race—woman, has been lynched?
What do our Southern lawyers and men of prominence and influence think of this proposition?

To the Editor of The Age.
The horrible lynching of an entire family of colored people at Monticello, Ga., on the 15th of January, was enough to shock the barbarians of the darkest ages of the world, to say mutilation of the human beings of this present century was not just think "A man, his son and two daughters were taken from jail and lynched by a mob of savage white men."
It is too shocking to hear of the lynching of the men of our race, when the power of the courts, and everything else, is in the hands of the white women, when it comes to lynching the women in our community, met with a vigorous protest. There is not another race of people on the face of God's green earth, other than the Negro race, that would stand for this continued lynching of their men and women without making trouble for the awards in the community in which the lynchings took place. But the colored people, the long suffering people. For many years have been waiting, patiently, for justice before the courts. If one of the race commits a crime he should be punished after he has had a fair trial in a jury. And with everything in the hands of the white man there is not only no excuse for lynching, but there always will be lynching as long as the colored people sit still and endorse it by their silence.
This lynching of colored citizens of this country seems to be going from bad to worse. And it is high time for the sailing Nexgrens of the race to be used for their own personal gain, and strive to do something for the general welfare of the entire race alike.
We as a much persecuted people must get together and strive to awake the consciousness of the lynching of the men and women of our race. How can this be done? Is the question. It can be done very easily. The first and most important thing to be done, is to get the attention of the people, the whole people. Let us take, instance, the Anti-Slavery League of this county got the attention of the whole nation. These people formed great delegations, composed of members from every state in the Union, and marched to the capital, where they presented their cause to the lawmakers of this country.
Now, Mr. Editor, it is high time for the colored people to "wake up" and get to work against this dreadful lynching of our people. Let there be no more lynching of our people in every state of this Union, such delegates to meet in Washington, D.C., on a certain day (before this Congress adjourns) and petition the President and Congress of the United States of America, breaking up this uncalled for lynching of the men and women of our race. A march down Pennsylvania avenue, about twenty thousand strong, with lanners representing each state, with worlds, down the street, lynching, Up West Law and Order" in arresting thereon, would go a long way in arresting the attention of the law-abiding white people of this country. The horrible lynching of four men and women, in Georgia does not only disgrace all the states of the Union stand miss disgraced. The leading men and women of our race should get together now, and bring this matter to the attention of their Senators and Representatives in Congress. Let every the United States Congress stand up and be counted.
We believe we have legions of white
Greeks in this country today—just
written by Floyd Garrison, Charles Summers
and other great friends of the col-
ored race—who are in deep sympathy with us, and are ready and willing to join us in the effort to break up this cursed lynching business. But the police, with theirselves to take the initiative, stop in this movement. They are the sufferers.

MEMORIAL SERVICES
FOR MISS GRACE DODGE
*Several of the philanthropic organizations of the city, working among the amelioration of conditions among Negroes, united, in a memorial service on Sunday, January 24, at 3.30 P. M., at St Marks-M. E. Church, the Rev. W. H. Brooks, pastor, in memory of the late Miss Grace 11. Jodge, who died December 27, 1914. The organizations taking part were the Young Women's Christian Association, the Young Men's Christian Association, the White Rose Industrial Association, the Hope Day Nursery and the National League on Urban Conditions among Negroes. Mrs. Emma S. Ransom, president of the young Women's Christian Association, which was, perhaps, the organization with which Miss Dodge was most insept allied and in which she was most deeply interested. The enor of the quenner furnished the music. The services were inspiring and were participated in by a large audience. The following program, arranged by Eugene Kinkele Jones, associate director of the urban League, was carried out:
Hymn, "Lead Kindly Light," congregation; scripture reading, Mrs. J. C. Thomas; payer, the Rev. W. H. Brooks; solo, Mrs. E. M. Connell; resolution, E. K. Jones; remarks, Miss M. L. Lewis, representing the White Rose Home; hymn, "Oh, to be Notting, congregation; remarks, Mrs. E. H. Dorsey representing the Hope Day Nursery; hymn, congregation; remarks, the Rev. R. C. Ransom, representing the Y. W. C. A. solo, Mrs. Ethel Calloway Fearing; benefaction Thomas J. Bell, secretary Y. M. C. A. the following was the resolution read by Mr. Jones and adopted by the meeting:
A friend of all mankind has passed from our mortal vision, into immortality with the death of grace H. Dodge. Her devoted services to mankind in many fields of philanthropy have been so generous and beautiful, and the Negroes of our nation and of this city have been so often and so practically helped by her thought and service for them, that the Young Women's Christian Association, the Young Men's Christian Association, the White Rose Industrial Association—the Hope Day Nursery and the National League on Urban Conditions among Negroes desire to place upon their records their gratitude to our Heavenly Father for such a life, and an expression of the sadness of the members of the several organizations at the loss of such a friend. Be it therefore SOLVED, that these organizations give public expression of their regrets means of a public memorial meeting, and that copies of these obitutions be published through the local press.

Fovenent.: ‘
other day before the Industrial Commission, pronounced a.sentence
which-should be made the golden text of all the captains of industry
lof the country, “The sentetice was the following: 0.)
"We believe itsis better, wiser and more jist,
‘to fnake many men comfortable than to make a few ‘
very rich.”. : "3
These words go to the root of our industrial problems, They
do, more, they find the solution, . .
__Itdoesn’t tuk much thinking ip discover that there is something
radically wrong with the industrial’ system of the world. ;
One man, jor instance, furnishes the-money and brain, and one
thousand men furnish the musele and skill for opefating a factory.
From the profits of this combination the one man is able to maintain
a hotse on Fiith Avenue, a summer place at Newport, a country
home on Long Island; he is able to keep a yacht and a flock-of
automobiles; his wiie can load herself with a’king’s ransom in jewels
jand waste a modest fortune in entertaining her friends atga pet dog
dinner. ee mt a ee
Out of Moric thousand workmen, nine hundred of them are not
able to afford beefsteak-for dinner ; it is a problem to provide shoes
for their children‘and keep them.in school ; if one of these workmen is
sick and out of work for a month his fainily finds itself on the verge
oi starvation and on the way to the poorhouse. we eee
Now, the money and brain are essential in establishing the
iactory, but the muscle and skill are equally essential in keeping it
going and making it profitable. Thén, since thére™is so slight, if
any, difference.in the importance-of what-the one man and what.the
one thousand men contribute to the enterprise, ig there not something
wrong about the vast difference between their respective shares of
thé profits? ee :
This sounds like socialism. Perhaps it is.” 1i, so, there is this
much, at least, about socialism that is right.
‘MrFord went on to-say that no man can bring up a family and
hope’to own a home on the ordinary rate of wages; so the nifiniinum
wage in his factoriés for a man,of iamily is $5 a.day; and eight hours
is a day’s work, “In addition, the men have a share in-the profits of
the concern. The ‘results thave been ‘that since the adoption ‘of this
policy’ 8,000 families connected with ‘the Ford factories have moved
into better homes, bank accounts:of tlic workmen have iticréased: 130
per cents, and the men have made. marked ‘improvement in sobriety
and steadiness. ° = eee
«But the most remarkable result of this humane experiment is
the proof that righteousness is even more than its‘owit reward. In
spite*of the fact that Mr. Ford has increased.wWwaiges, shortened hours
and distributed a share of the profits among his workmen, he, never-
theless, finds himself growing richer. instead af being made poprer.
Last year showed an increase of 15.per, cent, in, the efficiency of his
workmen, a total business of $90,000,000, and a profit of $25,000,000-
Other manufaéturers who are grinding down their employees, pay-
ing them-as little and working them as long as possible, who are
sdueezing out every: penny of profit, these manufacturers are erying
hard times. Re ma .

We can only add.that we hope Mr. Ford's idea is’so big that a
man's ¢olor is no bar to his sharing-in the blessing of being a work-
man in the Ford factories, aoe y a

BISHOP HURST ON HAITI.
In the currént issue of the .\,

not only interesting, put contains

Maiti, that such maligned toun-

Negroes control a real govern-
mentand so recognized by the na-
tions of the world, this unfortu-

going through such a crisis in its
affairs, ought ‘to be a matter -of
special concer to us. The fate
of all of the smaller and weaker
Latin-American states hangs in
the balance, but the fate of Haiti,
as. Bishop Hurstshows, is more
critical than that of any of the
others, © | a,

_° GOVERNOR SLATON ON LYNCHING:
Governor “laton of Utorgi has chaled considerably under tic
ledlitorial criticism in the Northern newspapers regarding the lynehing
at Monticello: . Ina telegram to the New York "World" he resents
the term s‘uncivilized” beg applied to Georgia and Georgians: He
goes on to state that lawlesshess is not confined to Georgia or to the
South—which. is true—and he promises to do all in his power to
bring to justice thoSe’ guilty of this latest crime against law.
We believe-the Governor is in’ earifest, but why did he need
to say, “OF course, the provocation was great?”* We have yet to
hear a Southem man speak out for justice and right to the Negro
without offering"some sort: of ‘apology, to. prejudiced Southern
opinion, £ : yer ds
* Governor Slaton has offered a reward of $500 for the arrest and
conviction ofeach of the first: five’ members of the Monticello tiob.
Now. while we know: that: not one of the mob is really. worth’ $500—
we doubt whether the devil would give.that much for the whole lot—
yet we icel that each one of the crowd is wanted more than $500
worth. dsn’t the arrest and conviction of these enemies of law, order
and civilization Worth more than $500 a piece to the State of Georgia?

bill, “Then why dues: Mr. Dies say, "Of course, we from: the South

‘The answer is very simple... Tire niéaning is that Southern Con
gressmen fegl that they are morally,pound to vote against the Negro
whenever there-arises any quesGon whaisover concertiing the race:
All of which goes to prove that the Negroes in the jungles of Africa
haye more to:hope for and less to. fear from the Representatives of
the Southern States than have the Negro‘citizens of those states:
Anbther curiosity of the,Congressional Recurd is the practice of
the Government in printing the words “Negro rise” to tise v capital
“X"": but in speaking of the Negro to use a small “n.” We cannot
quite see the reason for this distinction. ‘This question of "Negro
