OHIO'S CENSORS BAN PHOTO PLAY Chairman of Board of Ceasors Says Picture WILL Rekindle Sectional Hatred and Arouse Prejudice Against Race Would Make the Child, Unfamiliar With the Real Facts, Comclude that the Result of the Civil War was the Greatest Crime in Annals of History—No Politics in Action of Board. Special to THE NEW YORK ACK. COLUMBUS, O. J. Oct. 5.—The victory of the colored people and decent white people achieved last week, when the State Board of Censors, after being deadlocked for a week, refused to permit to "The Birth of the Nation" to show in Ohio, was achieved only after a most gruelling fight. Daniel J. Ryan, former Secretary of State for Ohio, a leading Ohio lawyer, led the fight against granting a permit to show the films in Ohio, and to him, more than any factor, are the colored people of Ohio indebted for the victory won. C. G. Williams, chairman of the State Board of Censors, after announcing the board's decision, gave out a statement defending the board's decision, which is a classic. Among other things the chairman said: "It will not be disputed but that it has a great dramatic value and is suspending from the standpoint of camera achievements." On the other hand, by no stretch of the imagination can we get away from the fact that it reflects unfavorably upon the colored race. The entire later half is devoted to scenes and subtitles portraying colored men engaged in all sorts of vicious conduct toward the whites of the South during the civil war and the reconstruction period following. There are many mob scenes where Negroes are in the most repelling attacking white citizens, and scenes where Negro men are forcing their attentions upon white women and are engaged in all sorts of ridiculous and knavish conduct, not only as individuals, but as a race. True, they in many instances led by what the film terms 'scalawag carpetbaggers', but his only further relief the government was based upon some historical facts, many phases are exaggerated in such a way that the child, unfamiliar with the real facts of history, would upon viewing the film immediately conclude that the result of the civil war was the greatest crime in the annals of history, rather than the prevention of human beings driven by the lash and sold upon the auction block. The entire film would seem to proclaim the very doctrine which it cost a half million lives and billions of dollars to eradicate. "Not only does it rekindle the feeling of sectional hatred, but it strongly tends to arouse hatred and prejudice among the coming generation against a race that is living in our midst, 120-140 of whom are in Ohio. I consider it wholly unwise, unjust, dangerous and harmful to officially approve a film that reflects upon them and incites hatred toward them, retarding them in their progress, as this film does. Can't Be Purged. The play also represents the Ku Klux Klan in a manner that their conduct is applauded. It tends to justify that organization in capturing Negroes, and, as masked vigilance committees try them at night, convicting them of supposed outrages, executing them and placing their bodies at the doors of state officials who sympathized with their cause. Without discussing the justification of their methods of that day, the spirit that urged their activities at that time is the same that prompts such appalling conduct in times as to cause Negroes to be made the lynching day a day of celebration. The same spirit prompted masked men to take Leo M. Frank from the custody of the law and execute him, thus which present scenes of this character in a manner which to the onlooker seems to be justified, cannot fail to be harmful. It is also true that there are a few films on the end of the last reel of a film that, show the colored race in a vividable light. But to my mind, after considering all that has gone before it is similar to forcing a very frightening concoction down the throat and then giving him a grain of ear to take the taste out of his mind. The objectionable feature above described, including the plot, scenes and the future film that, I consider it impossible to eliminate, said objectionable When asked if state politics had an ing to do with the board's decision Mr. Williams said that "the board had not been influenced by politics," and he "didn't think there was any politics in the protests that had reached it." Ryan's Protest..... Among those protesters, I got from Daniel J. Ryan, representing the Columbus Branch of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People," among other strangers. Ryan's protest says: "I am opposed generally in anything that creates ill-feeling among the different racial stocks in our American citizens. I protest against this picture of a protest structure in our appeal to our evil passions and treason. It exhibits, in our condition in our national life, what a distinct tendency to create a protest against our fellow American citizen by the colored race. I have not seen this picture personally, but I have conversed with newspaper people, business men and others who have informed me of its contents. "There is nothing in it of a lofty or patriotic character. There is nothing in it that would induce citizens to love them. But citizens more! The whole result of the play is to avenge the primal patriots of one race against another, and that reason I regard it against the peace and the patriotic life of our country to exhibit it in this sum of elsewhere." POLITICAL CAMPAIGN Special to THE NEW YORK ACE BALTIMORE, Md., Oct. 6—The candidates of the Republican and Democratic parties for governor, attorney-general and comptroller have been formally notified of their nominations, and the campaign for election in November next is in full sway. Ovington R. Weller, the Republican candidate for governor, was formally notified last Friday at an enthusiastic gathering of Republicans of all shades of opinion, and Emerson C. Harsington, the Democratic candidate, was told the good news Monday. It is believed by many that the Republicans will be able to elect their standard bearer in November. Weller having made a most capable chairman of the Good Roads Commission. Under him what is regarded as one of the best systems of roads in the country has been built. He will receive large-support from the independent voters of the State, as well as the great majority of the colored vote. The Republicans in their platform have two planks of special interest to the race, to wit: We favor the extension of public school education, including the lengthy requirements wherever needed, without discrimination with our youth. We stand for the protection of the public health of all the people of the State and favor and shall support such legislation as will make ample provision for consumptives, without regard to race. The two planks were inserted at the suggestion of leading colored men here. MEL CHARLTON WINS HIGH MUSICAL HONOR Melville Charlton, 405 Cumberland street.

MAKE NEGROES LEAVE Portland, Me, Oct. 6.—The killing of a night watchman in one of the business stores, the crime being charged to two strange Negroes supposed to be from Boston, has aroused considerable feeling among the people. The authorities have put out a drag net and all the Negroes are being locked up on the supposition that they may know something about it. The two men, after the killing, went to the house of Bill Harris, a brother to George W. Harris, editor of the New York News, and rented a room. Harris, from all indications, had no connection with the men or knowledge of the crime, but the police arrested him for possible complicity. The white people are sore and incensed, and besides arresting many of the Negro men, some of the Negro women of the town have been compelled to leave. Others are expecting to receive similar notices.

STEWARD DEFENDS WILBERFORCE The question of "modernizing" Wilberforce University, making it the center connection institution of the A. E. Church, is taken up in a letter by the Rev. Theophilus G. Steward, chaplain of the United States Army; retired, and now connected with the Wilberforce faculty. Dr. Steward sees, in the proposed movement a probable attempt to subordinate scholarship to industrialism, declaring, that in this direction already the school is modernized almost to the breaking point. The letter in full is as follows: "Recently in a popular publication the statement was made that, a number of influential persons were preparing to petition the next General Conference of the African Methodist Episcopal Church to make Wilberforce the central connecational institution of the church, to which other schools might become in a sense tributary, and to 'modernize the university.' With the first part of this proposed position it is probable that every lover of our university is in hearty accord. I would indeed be a great educational achievement could we rally around this institution and develop it according to the plan projected by its founders. Alas, however, the signs point but vaguely in that direction. Industrial Equipment. "The bete noir in this proposed petition, however, is the word "modernized." Modernized education for the Negro in this country is spelled with an 'I', and when completed reads INDUSTRIALIZED. Now, we have certain industries in Wilberforce, and the equipment for this phase of education is developed far out of proportion to the other departments, so that we may say already the school is modernized almost to the breaking point; any more of this modernizing would lead toward the question, Where is the University? "Behind this word 'modernize' there may easily lurk all those inferences expressed in such phrases as 'back numbers,' 'not up-to-date,' 'behind the times,' 'obsolete,' etc. These bits of ready-made slang are so easily used by people who are usually too tired to think. Surely the faculty of Wilberforce would welcome at any time improvements, and stand ready to put in use as best they can whatever of advanced means or methods the managing boards of the school may suggest or provide; but they are not prepared to recognize novelty as the only qualification, nor age as the only disqualification. Age in a university, like age in an individual, is not always contemptible; in some instances it has proven itself to be honorable. Speaking of this same grand OLD Wilberforce, employs the following respectful language: The Wilberforce University has added to its enviable reputation for dignified antiquity among institutions of learning the reputation acquired with delight, a faculty of worthy scholarship and of high personal character. Time after time, through press and from lecture platform, have representatives of this earliest and most widely known center of wider education in Negro race brought credit to Wilberforce and enlightenment to the general public by their competent discussion of vital issues. Quietly, with neither ostentation nor unseemly haste, the men behind the movement of Wilberforce a widening influence of potent good in both educational and political fields. Some Facts About Wilberforce. "I will ask the reader to consider the question of Wilberforce and its need of being modernized, in the light of the following facts: "Quite recently a girl from our senior academic class went to Oberlin, entered there the class corresponding, and finished her academic course from that school without having lost a day by the traister. Will it be said that Oberlin's academic department needs to be modernized? "This week one of our students who finished sophomore here last June entered the junior college class in the Ohio State University and with the completion of two years' work there will receive his bachelor's degree from that institution based upon two years' work done there by your state work there. Will our modernizers say that the college of arts and sciences in Ohio State University needs to be modernized? It seems to be in the important respect of preparing men for college degrees, in exactly the same condition as Wilberforce." This week also one of our students who took his degree here last June enters Columbia University as a candidate for the master's degree, which he hopes to earn in one year, his only scholastic "aids for his admission to this graduate school being his degree, from Willerforce University. His is not the only case. Last fall one of our students entered Columbia's graduate school on the same basis, and during the school year completed six of the eight courses required for his degree. This estimable course is now teaching, and hopes to complete the remaining courses by summer work and thus obtain degree. Will our modernizers demand that Columbia University's graduate school should be modernized? "Really, dear reader, what is it that needs modernizing—the academic department of Oberlin University, the College department of the Ohio State University, the graduate school of Columbia University, Willerforce University, all these—or the paragrapher from whom I have made my initial quotation."

Told owner Ford Was a Guest of the Society Reating the Hall and Would Remain as Long as Did Members of Their Organization-Asked Southerner If He Was a Georgia Lyncher. $ Special to The New York Age. SPEAK TO THE NEW YORK CITY SAN FRANCISCO Oct. 6—Clay Ford, tailor, 1318 Valencia street, and his wife were invited to an entertainment given by a Jewish society on September 26 in the hall at Van Ness avenue and Sutter street—but the proprietor of the hall, a Southern white man, attempted to force them to leave the building, giving as reason. "I am a southerner and have lived among your people. They have several times tried to rent my hall and I refused because I did not inten- ture for any of the mto stand on this floor. Mr. and Mrs. Ford had been cordially received by their hosts, and the more than two hundred Jews present had shown every sign of friendliness. After they had participated in several dances, the Southerner, who is the proprietor, approached them and said to Mr. Ford, "Here is a dollar; you and your wife have the money." Mr. Ford refused to accept the dollar and immediately went to the manager of the entertainment. The manager said to the owner: "That man has a card of invitation and he is as good as you are." More than half of the guests present were attracted by the disturbance and when they had learned the cause of it, much indignation was expressed. One of the most indignant asked the owner, "Are you a Georgia lyncher?" He was told most pointedly that the hall had been rented by their organization, that Mr. and Mrs. Ford were their guests, and as such would stay as long as they did. The proprietor chagrined and disgruntled, left the hall, and the Jewish hosts paid extra attention to Mr. and Mrs. Ford, trying to remove even the remotest remembrance of the unkindly action of the prejudiced Southerner, BERRY O'KELLEY OF N.C. STORY OF HIS CAREER The address of Berry O'Kelley of Method, N. C., delivered at the recent session of the National Negro Business League at Boston, Mass., was an interesting disclosure of the various events in the life of a successful, self-made man. There is so much food for thought that the address is being given in its entirety, as follows: "WHOLESALE MERCHANDIZING." Address Delivered by Mr. Berry O'Kelley, of Method, North Carolina, at the recent meeting of the National Negro Business League in Boston, Md. Ladies and Gentlemen and Delegates. By request of your president (Dr. Booker T. Washington), I will endeavor to state in a few words what I have been attempting to do and what I have are accomplished along the line of gentlemen merchants in order that you may be assured of the character of men handicapped, let me say that I am a wholesale dealer in groceries and general merchandise, including flour, hay, oats, nuts, cotton, and other products, meticulous in wares on the Southern Railroad. The president, in introducing me, state that I was from Raleigh, North Carolina, but really my place of business is three miles from Raleigh, from which I am being now located at Method, N.C. I began business with $5. I was an amateur, so being deprived of both father and mother early in life, and went to life with my kind-hearted aunt, who raised me. It is to her I was raised, and it is to my career. Before going to work I won't tell you what year, for it might disclose how old I am. I went to work for a Mrs. S. K. Brown for $5 a month. Sometimes later on I was persuaded to change my employment and was hired by a railroad where I worked for fifty cents a day as "water worker" there but did not stay long because I could not stay there. I did not like that kind of life, so I went back to the same lady and continued working for her at the handsome salary of $5 a month. Of course, I was young then and at first my amity got all the money I made—all I made was hers, or as my own older I made $5 of my earnings kept on working for only $5 a month, by denying myself I managed to save something each month. If only a little, until I had saved $100, which was a their saved up, a business manager, Mr. C. H. Woods, a business manager and his business manager, there by. One time they came to there with him, which their boss became attached to me and finding out that I had $100 he induced me to become a partner of his. I bought a half interest in his business, paying the $100 cash down and I went into the grocery business by myself, and I found that in order to succeed in the grocery business was to give the people the same value for their money as any other grocerian was able to give after making up the difference. I have eleven problems that method, I found no trouble in getting people to deal with me. My only trouble was to get money enough to buy what they wanted, in order that they wanted in order that they might deal with me. I merely mention this point. My business men complain that their race don't patronize them, when they themselves have not taken the proper steps to win or deserve their trade. To-day my business is prospering, my customers are colored as well as white and to many of them I ship in carload Invested in Real Tatate. After succeeding in the grocery business so well, I wanted to buy some land; so I bought a farm near Raleigh, NC, and from that time until now I have been trying to add to my real estate holdings, at the same time conducting a large grocery and general merchant business, lots of things, and doing fairly well. I want to say especially to 'the young men up this way (Boston). Lots of you don't know anything about the South' only the bad things you sometimes read about in the newspapers go good in that things have go bad there, but I am sure you from personal experience—after living in the South for many years I have never had anybody, white or colored, to block my progress or to object to my living an upright, manly, successful business man. Now that you have read about the right people you people who read so much about the South in the newspapers, and to some of you young men and women of the North who seem to be so wrongly impressed as to the wonderful opportunities for business success that the Southland offers you in almost nine cases out of ten, if not ten cases out of nine, the troubles you read about as occurring down South, are caused by the ignorant, stiffness and wrongdoing of our race, aired man or woman who is self-representing, who tries to live right and do right in a Southern community, but what the white people of that community, with very few exceptions, are willing to lend their help, their encouragement and friendly their encouragement in business. Sometimes course, you may run across some 2 by 2 white people, who are narrow-minded, narrow-hearted, and "not quite right"—indeed in my own town where I live, some years ago I had a little unpleasantness with one of this people in business. Sometimes friends. Up here in the North you have plenty of chance to spend money out very little chance to make it. We need a large number of you young men and women of Boston to come South with your education, come South and come South with your business. You know that "small fruit, though small, cats just as good is large fruit." Questions and Answers Dr. Booker T. Washington—You said you had other lines of business than your grocery and general merchandise business. Tell us, what are these lines? O'Kelley—In addition to my wholesale dealing in groceries and general merchandise, I am in the real estate business, the cotton ten business, farming and perhaps a few other little ventures on the side. *Washington—Do you combine your business to retailing* O'Kelley—I run a retail store by iteload and I have a warehouse on the Southern Railroad, from which I wholesale groceries and general merchandise, such as flour, hay, corn, oats, etc., sometimes shipping in carload lots. Washington—To whom do you wholesale? O'Kelley—To anybody that buys. Washington—What class of goods do you wholesale, did you say? O'Kelley—Package goods, sugar, flour, foodstuffs, grain, hay, cotton-seed meal, hulls, dairy food, canned goods and such like articles. Washington—You mean to say you wholesale to white people" O'Kelley—Yes, sir; they are my friends! Mr. Maloney, of Durham, N. C.—I want to ask the speaker who has just written the freight agent and also the ticket agent at Method, North Carolina" O'Kelley—I am informed that his name is "Harry O'Kelley." Mr. Maloney—What is the name of the public school for colored children in Method, North Carolina? O'Keeley—I believe they call it the 'O'Kelley—I believe they call it the 'Berry'O'Kelley School." Mr. Maloney—Who is its principal? His name is Prof. C. M. Junger. Ample Capital Stock. Washington—Can you tell us about how much business you do per year? *Okley—Can't tell that exactly; it fluctuates.* Washington—What is the amount of digital stock or amount invested in your business? *Okley—I don't know exactly, but I will say this much—enough to run it good.* Capt. James W. Hamlin, Raleigh, N. —Who supplies Shaw University (at N. C.) with all of its provisions? *Okley—I supply them all they will get me. We have been supplying Shaw University for quite a time.* Hamlin—Who is president of the State Fair of North Carolina? *Okley—I am.* Christie Morris, N. C. —I would like to ask Mr. Okley, do you not also own a shoe store in the city of Raleigh, N. C.? *Okley—I have an interest in one—es, sir.* Washington—How did you happen to be postmaster under a Democrat administration? *Okley—I hold it down and give attraction just like I did under the republican administration.* R. W. Thompson (newspaper correspondent), Washington, D. C. -What was the leading colored shoe store in tuleigh, N. C.? *K'elloy-I believe I happen to be the largest stockholder.* Dr. J. R. J. Foster, Ph.D. much a year so you are to qualify including schools, churches, etc; O'Kelley—1, cate, and answer, that ques- tionally have gave rather than mastered Washington. That means a question, for it, brings out the idea that when a member of our race proper, or when the member of any race proper, she should reach down and help somebody else. We want these people to know, of us already know, about your generosity to schools, churches, and other charitable purposes. How about the public school that was named after you? "Kelley—I merely gave them the lot of ground on which it stands, together with a little money and they called it the 'Berry O'Kelley School.'" "Kelley-1 gave last year about $10,000. At least some of them down there say I gave that much; they may have overestimated the amount, but I'm glad to say I gave some, and I'm going to give some more. Connected with Three Churches. Mrs. Stevens, Lynchburg, Va.-Do you hold office in any church? *O'Kelley-I* hold office in three churches. *Mrs. Stevens-Are they all of the same denomination?* *O'Kelley-To other people they are not, but to me they are. I am in a community where there are three churches. On one Sunday or during the week, I go to A's church; the next time I go to I's church; and then I worship in B's church. That is why I want to work with every church with every church in the community for they are all doing good work. I think more of my community than I do of any denomination differences, and I like to work with all classes of my people, doing all I can and helping an adult can in an humble way, for the purpose of the advancement for the advancement of the Kingdom of God. That makes me say I belong to them all. The pastor know I give as much as any other member and do anything I can to help, though I'm not much of a denominational man. I believe being a full-fledged citizen simply does not mean I am able to practices the Golden Rule-"I Help You and You Help Me." Washington—I believe sometime ago there was some agitation in North Carolina about sergregating; the white and colored people in the farming disaffected their ideas. Are any progress—any actual idea, Mr. O'Kelley? ©Kelley—Practically none at all North Carolina is the greatest State in history of States. Washington. We know that—two take all, that for granted. OKelley (continuing)—We have got some of the best white people and some of the best colored people there that you can find anywhere in the civilized world. They get along well together; they are for the most part most friendly toward each other, and so far as segregation is concerned, we have got so many good people in North Carolina, there not much attention paid. It is also the news-paper people who always like to have some yellow news, to publish Property Rights Protected. Washington — The question is whether a man who wants to buy property can purchase where he wants a man hold it after he has bought, it? **O'Kelley—If a Negro in North Carolina has the money to buy a farm he can buy. good land, well located in almost any county of the State; and in upright industrious citizen he will in upright industrious citizen be suspected by his neighbors, white and black. Let me say, my friends, that I have got some interest in property: jointly with white people and jointly with black people in North Carolina in the property right by the side of white people, but you buy some more. I don't know of any special places where we as a race are restricted unless it be such large blocks where the rich white folks don't even want the poorer class of their neighbors to purchase because they know they won't sell to them and keep up the right kind of improvements. Segregation does not mean much unless it is aimed only at us. In the first place, white people own the entire country anyway, and they don't need any law to segregate us, and they don't need any law to segregate country, and, in a sense we are already segregated. They are not giving land away to anybody. Washington—Let us come more direct to the question. "In the practical application of the plan of segregation that was talked about, have you seen in North Carolina, any practical effect on our people?" O'Kelley—Not in our section—I can't speak for the whole State. Washington—Then with regard to the idea of segregation—that is the way you see it? O'Kelley—I don't see it—though all places are not alike in North Carolina. Washington—We thank you very much Mr. O'Kelley; your success should inspire other young men to follow your example.

Mrs. Howard Renolds; Paterson street, has been ill, but is improving Most of us when presented with the word "Beauty," would immediately think of the outward appearance of something. Various pictures would arise in our minds of things bright and beautiful. There is no subject, more vast and more dubious to discuss than the subject, "Beauty." Why? Because it includes the entire universe and everything therein. The world is made up of all that is beautiful. It is vast because there is nothing in life that does not receive part of its perfection from something else. Since beauty is perfection, there is nothing more desirous, more impressive, more lasting, than beauty. The Sources of Beauty. One may study the beautiful in two ways, either in objects about us, what ever they may be, or in the mind of man, in the faculties that attain it, in the ideas and sentiments it excites in us. Real beauty exists in nature and magand from these develops all other sources of beauty. The foundation of every source of beauty develops from these with every necessity, for loveliness; in each will be found Infinity, Unity Repose. Nature is beautiful when we think of the sky, the clouds, the rain, the waters, the mountains, the trees and the grass. In these are real pictures of beauty. Nature is the greatest, beautifier the world knows. It talks to man and teaches him the value of beauty as it is intended for man's perpetual pleasure and perfection. There is nothing more beautiful than nature and nothing that has reached the perfection of beauty more than man. Nothing that has served as a greater teacher than nature and no scholar more apt than man. It is true that every part of nature has its tale of beauty and every material object plays its part. Every painting, every piece of sculpturing, every phrase of music tells something of beauty. But the greatest instrument of all, which is man, is at the bottom of it; for, if it were not for the artist's skill, Nature is so closely related to man, and man so closely related to nature until it is a problem to decide which is the more beautiful Human Beauty. We admit a public idea of beauty is subject to epidemic desires agitated by passion the slave of fashion and the fool of fancy, distinguishing only between that which is best or worst of that particular class; it can authorize? treel be said that, "Human Beauty" is real beauty and the best after all. We are creatures made after the image of God and should find beauty more exquisite than in the fowls of the air and the things of the earth. The soul of man is the object of real beauty. When we hold the mirror of life before us, we realize what kind of beings we really are; and, to reach the perfection of the soul is not a work of imagination. Man has much to fight against in attaining this victory. Firstly, the perfection of the soul depends upon the influence of the mind upon the body. The body will respond in action, according to the mind, whether good, bad or indifferent. The soul will be no greater than mind or body. There is much to torment the mind and body, but even so, beauty lurks within it all. There is evil diversity, which is the stamp or scar of various degradations. Sickness and sensuity passion and poverty, sorrow and remorse traced in our faces, while our bodies are consumed with sloth and labor and tortured with disease and abused with misuse. Human hearts are without hope and minds without power. The physical beings are bundles of sin. Yet, with all this these tortured bodies, can attain real beauty of the soul. Secondly, the intellectual power will remove the signs and blunts of sensuality and sloth. The intellect should be the master in facing the four evils of the world, which are Pride, Sensuality, Fear and Cruelty. Pride is the origin of all sin and the destruction of human beauty. Sensual character will tear down, while Fear and Cruelty will set every member of the body ajar. But in the recognition of these evils the moral enthusiasm of the soul will break its way through the body and our actions will express our thoughts while the intellectual power will control the great evils. Since matter is inferior to mind let us clothe ourselves in beautiful thoughts. Let us not spend our days and dollars on the clothes our homes and bodies wear and then pick up any sort of vulgar shabby thing and clothe our thoughts. To reach the perfection of human beauty every individual must have something to bestow and something to admire. He must have something to rejoice and admire in the other fellow that he does not find in himself. Then, let us so cultivate and beautify ourselves in order that we may become human beauties. We will realize the good and the beautiful in each other by our actions, words and deeds and not by the perishing and fading features, color of the skin, and texture of the hair which so many of us believe to be real beauty. DANGER OF RACE RIOT IN COATESVILLE Special to THE NEW YORK ACADEMY Coatesville, Pa. Oct. 6—This town is throbbing with repressed danger, with strong probability of racial friction, following the shooting of a white man, Assia George, by a Negro, Alexander Fisher, and the stabbing of Fisher by Joseph Korgus, white, a friend to George. The trouble started with an alleged attack by Fisher's dog on George's child. After rescuing his baby, George attacked the dog. Fisher resented the action and shot George in the right leg below the knee. Korgus crept up behind Fisher and plunged a knife into his back, stabbing him twice. George is in the hospital and will lose his leg. Fisher is also in the hospital and Korgus is in jail. Rumors that a band of 200 men was forming to take Fisher from his cot in the hospital and lynch him, aroused the Negroes. A few years ago Zuck Walker, another Negro, was brutally lynched in this town, and recalling that tragedy, the colored men immediately prepared to to the box- wreny of men, so more men, armed with rifles and shotguns, marching down Main street, arousing great excitement. The authorities promptly disarmed the men. Burgess Jones assured the Negroes that Fisher would be protected and swore in a large number of firemen and special officers. Fifty additional police were also sworn in. There is a heavy guard of Negroes at the hospital to protect Fisher, and others nationated at every exit to the local prison, for the release of Korgus.

The trip was made on the yacht formerly owned by "Tom Dixon," and known as the "Dixie," but which is now owned by Hampton Institute, and is called the "Hampden." The people, both black and white, were cordially responsive to the appeals for better home, better health, better schools, better farms, and closer co-operation between the races. The people attended the meetings in large numbers, ministers, judges, attorneys for county commons, county superintendents, and men of all degrees of prominence took part on the programs. It is evident from year to year that there is marked improvement in the life of the colored people of Virginia, and that the feeling between the races is more friendly. At various points on the way unusual overtures were made by county officials and leaders of public sentiment to make the party feel welcome and to render its work successful. Well equipped camp grounds, fair grounds and publie buildings of every kind, were placed at the disposal of the party, and at one place the white masonic lodge room was given over as a dining room to the party. Altogether the meetings were the most successful ever held by the Organization Society. Thousands and thousands of people attended them, white and black, women and children, and all went forth from them encouraged and helped. Automobiles, the best in the county, usually driven by their owners, were used to convey the party from the boat to the various places of meeting. WHEELING W VA Wheeling, W.

Pag “Miss Rachel Bumey ‘of Long Branch was'a visitor of Mrs. Wm. Jackson, Elm set. tt Oe The Rev. Richard M. Bolden, pastor of the First Emmanuel Church, 1951 130th street, said that the document of Paternalism which has been long neglected in the teaching of modern thought is coming to the front tease in both State and church organization. In the state organization the Constitution embodies this doctrine. The spirit in this doctrine is beginning to shape national and international thought along the line that all government should be developed and maintained for the good of all that are governed. Therefore there should not be any special classes or privileges; that all the children of a constitutional government, should share equally and participate alike in the intellectual and business life of the world. The consolence spirit in the pattern of the patterning spirit in government is participating labor movements, socialism and anarchism; for these things are nothing more than protests and revolts against individual national and international organized selfishness. Legal frightfulness cannot hold back and keep the spirit of paternalism that is manifesting itself in the State from triumphing; because it is the immensal spirit, throughout the ages with kept this religious truth in the hearts and minds of His chosen. All scientific thinkers agree that the universe is harmoniously, benevolently and eternally arranged; and all thinkers agree that there is an intelligent and all-powerful reality controlling in person we call the Father, God gave to this world a concrete historical character, who was qualified and did give to us a living example of the doctrine of Paternalism. Though the people were unworthy of Him, He showed tenderness and mercy in their sorrows and distress and short-sighted being. For His disciples suspidity and short sightedness He demonstrated the Father's wonderful patience, for their indifference and coldness of heart, He showed the highest affection and solicitude. As an illustration of His tenacity and love, He says, "I will give you a hand." Therefore it is His spirit that is rebaptising and renewing us into one female as children of God. The Sunday School and the Men's Bible Class were largely attended. The opening exercises of the school were conducted by-Pastor Bolden, and the review by-Supt. Humphrey. Two new scholars joined the school. The teacher of the Bible Class reported new members and an interesting study of the lesson. The large audience who attended the meeting at the Literary Society at 4 p.m. was amply repaid in listening to the sleddle program brought to them by Mrs. Joseph Jenkins. A majority of the participants were members of the B. Y. P U. of the Metropolitan Baptist Church. Each number had been prepared, and was well rendered, losing remarks were made by the pastor. Miss-Edna Horrah had charge of the prayer and praise service at 7 p.m. At the evening service Pastor Bolden delivered a special sermon to the memorial of the 68. Order of Moses, on the occasion of their seventh anniversary. A large crowd was present. Excellent music was rendered by the choir in charge of Mrs. S. U. Jackson. Mrs. Leanna Hamilton presented a purse to the pastor on behalf of the society and a donation was also made. Rollin and Miss Johnson had charge of the dinner during the day and gave $3.30 to the church. The socials for the week are: Monday night, a night, a social at the home of Mrs. Keaton, 27 West 131st street by Mrs. M. Cox. Tuesday night, 22 Mrs. given by Mrs. J. McKenna and Mrs. Quick, at 108 West 139th street. Wednesday night an Apple Duemett at the home of Mrs. M.

C. church Friday evening, comedy force entitled "Those Husbands of Ours." Abyssinian Baptist Church Many of the members feared that the already large debt of the church would be increased when the modern improvements were made on the property recently. This fear was disgusted at the joint board meeting that week that the improvements cost $4,240 and that it the church would raise $587.01 more the trustees would be able to pay off the entire amount. This statement Sunday, so thrilled the congregation that $114 more was raised, and this was done despite the fact that the trustees and their auxiliaries the following amounts: Solid Workers' Club, Mrs. Thomas Jarrett, president; $25; Sunday Morning Band, Thaddeus Erby, leader $18.73; Usher Board, A. H. Holmes, chief; $45.45; Missionary Society, Mrs. Julia O'Hagan, president; Volunteer, president $61; Voluntary Club, $51.80; Deans and Trustees, $66.71; Pastor's Lecture on "Little Foxen", $137.55; Sunday School, W.

The large attendance at the morning and evening services at St. David's on last.Sunday was an evidence of the returning of the members of the pariah from their summer vacation. Many of the members who have been laid aside by sickness and kept away by bereavement were again in their places. The Rev. J. H. Edward, vicar of the Chapel of the Redeemer of Oklahoma City, Oklahoma, was the special preacher at the 11 o'clock service and assisted at the celebration of holy communion at which the Rector, E. G. Clifton, was the celebrant. The junior members of the parish scored a great success at their Autumnal Festival Dance on last Thursday evening at Odd Fellows' Temple. A large attendance of members and friends of the parish enjoyed the night. The success of the affair was mainly due to the untiring efforts of Miss Henrietta Anderson, Mrs. O. Ayers and D. H. West. They were ably assisted by a number of other ladies of the parish. - The Literary Society of the parish, which began its fall and winter session on last Thursday evening, will meet every Thursday evening in the Church at 8:30 p. m.

No judge or justice shall sit in the appellate term, appellate division or in the court of appeals in review of a decision made by him or by any court of appeal. In the case of another herer. The testimony in equity cases shall be taken in like manner as in cases at law; and, except as herer otherwise provided, the legislature shall have the same power to alter and regulate the jurisdiction of the court in equity that it has heretofore exercised. Abstract.-By this section as amended the present prohibition against a judge or justice sitting in the appellate division or in the court of appeals in review of a doctrinal case, which he is at the time a siding member, is extended to the appellate term, the same reasons which induced the prohibition in the one case being equally applicable to the other. The official terms of the justices of the supreme court shall be fourteen years from and including the first day of January next after their election. When a vacancy shall occur otherwise than by expiration of term in the office of a judge, the vacancy shall be filled for a full term, at the next general election, happening not less than three months after such vacancy occurs, until the vacancy shall be so filled, the position of the judge shall be filled for the senate. If the senate shall be in session, or if not in session the governor, may fill such vacancy by appointment, which shall continue until and including the last day of December next year, or sit at the position of the vacancy shall be filled. Section 8. To secure a more simple, speedy, and effective administration of justice, it shall be the duty of the legislature to act with all cofficient speed upon the report of the court, and to act promptly and attentively to the legislature by the governor on the twenty-fifth day of April, one thousand nine hundred and fifteen, and to enact a brief and simple civil practice act and to appoint a separate body to practice the civil procedure in the court of appeals, supreme court and county courts. The legislature may make the civil practice rules or any part thereof applicable to such other courts as it may provide. Therefore, if any other body is appointed to perform than five years, the legislature may appoint a commission to consider and report what changes, if any, there should be in the law and rules governing civil procedure. The legislature shall act on the report of each body, and the legislature shall not otherwise, or at any other time, enact any law prescribing, regulating or changing the civil procedure in the court of appeals, supreme court or county courts. The legislature shall make to make and amend civil practice rules shall certify that legislation is necessary. After the adoption of the civil practice rules by the legislature under the requirement of the power to alter and amend such rules and to make, alter and amend civil practice rules shall rest and remain in the courts of the state to be exercised by the judges of the supreme court and the county courts, public divisions of the supreme court, or by such judges or justices of the court of appeals, the supreme court and the county courts as the legislature shall choose, is intended to remedy the existing evils of the civil practice in the courts of the state. It contemplates the adoption by the body of practice rules which must take the ABSTRACT.—This section makes the court of claims a permanent court of the state jurisdiction as are the other courts enumerated therein. The recent changes in this body for political purposes by the legislature require the court as a constitutional tribunal as to give it permanence and improve its efficiency. The language of the provision relating to this court, except that the lesixture may confer upon the court the power to determine conflicting claims between the jurisdiction which it does not now possess. The jurisdiction now exercised by the several courts hereby abolished, shall be reinstated. The superior court, inferior and joint courts now heard in the court of common pleas for the city and county of New York and the superior court of the state, and the oceane court in such manner and by such justice or justices as the appellate divisions in the respective departments which include New York and Buffalo shall discharge otherwise provided by the legislature. ABSTRACT. -This section is eliminated as being now obsolete. 14.6 Circuit courts and courts of over and terminer are abolished from and after the last day of December, one thousand eight hundred and ninety-five. All their the supreme court, and all actions and proceedings then pending in such courts shall be transferred to the supreme court for hearing and determination. Any justice of the supreme court, except as other articles of the article, must hold court in any county. ABSTRACT.-The first two sentences of this eliminated section are obsolete. The last sentence is unnecessary. The supreme institutions of the state and there is no restriction as to the faculty in which a justice may serve. This article in several provisions assumes the transfer of justice from one county, district or department to another. Section 8. Supreme court commissioners may be appointed as hereafter provided, one or more of whom may be designated by the court to administer private property as taken for a public use in the judicial department or district for which they shall have been appointed when such compensation is made in writing.

The districts shall be numbered for district number one which shall consist; and then follows the description of the senate districts as created by the constitution of the state, and ending with district number fifty. Such division of the state into senate districts is not restated here, in full, because it already be supervised by the act of the legislature of 1907, creating the present senate districts, which are not affected by this proposed constitution. The alteration of ex-dividend districts is left to the legislature of 1916. **ABSTRACT.**—The senate districts shall remain as at present constituted until altered as hereafter fixed by the legislature in 1907, until the alteration to be made by the legislature in 1916. **Section 4.** [An enumeration of the inhabitants of the state shall be taken under the direction of the secretary of state during the months of May and June in the year preceding the amendment, and in the same months every tenth year thereafter; and the said districts shall be so altered by the legislature at the first enumeration after the return of every number.

Resolution is left to the legislature of 1918.] Section 10. The legislature of its own motion, in the manner to be provided by joint rule which shall continue in force until abolition, may conclude its assembly, may conclude to take action in the matter of removal of a judge of the court of appeals or justice of the supreme court.

ABSTRACT.—The legislature now has the power to remove judges of the court of appeals and justices of the supreme court. The assembly as a separate body, to constitute impeachment proceedings. No specific grant of power is given at present either to the legislature as a whole, or the assembly as a separate body, to constitute impeachment proceedings. No foregoing amendment is to rectify that situation. Section [R] 11. No person shall be sible to the legislature as a member of the time of his election, or in within one hundred days previous thereto has been, a member of congress, a civil or military officer under the United States, or an officer under any other jurisdiction, or a member of the legislative recess or otherwise. The foregoing amendment is to rectify that situation. Section [R] 11. No person shall be sible to the legislature as a member of congress, a civil or military officer under the government of the United States, or an officer under any other jurisdiction, or a member of the legislative recess or otherwise. The second sentence is retained, however, to the effect that a person who becomes a member of the legislature may not hold such office after accepting an offer under the federal government of a city. ABSTRACT — The above section is changed so as to forbid the legislature berefted to pass any bill until the lapse of three years, and to prevent the legislature from print of the bill, thus removing an exception by which a bill may now be passed in less time if the governor so recommends. This change insures at least three years' scrutiny, by the legislature and the governor, of the bill before it is passed, without any exception. The latter part of the section is changed so as to remove the prohibition against amendment of a bill during the general debate on the question of its final passage. The legislature must, because a motion to recommend, amend and report forthwith as amended is manifestly proper notwithstanding the present language. The proposed change restores in substance the provisions of the constitution, and the procedures of the practice during the last- sixty-nine years and simplifies and expedites procedure. leys, or for draining swamps or other low lands[1]; Locating or changing county seat[s][]; Locating or changing venues of venue in civil or criminal cases[]; Facerporating villages[s][]; Facerporating members of members of boards of supervise[s][]; Selecting, drawing, summoning or empa- panelling: grand or petit jurons[;].

The legislature shall pass general laws providing for the cause enumerated in this section, except on the Hudson river below or over the waters forming a part of the boundaries of the state. But no law shall authorize the construction or operation of a street railroad except upon the condition that the property bounded on the property be obtained, or in case the consent of such property owners cannot be obtained, the appellate division of the supreme court, in the department in which it is proposed, to construct upon application, commission, or determine, after a hearing of all parties interested, whether such railroad ought to be constructed or operated, and their determination, confirmed by the court, may be determined, the consent of the property owners. ABSTRACT.—This section now in article 3 as section 12, defines most of the cases in which the legislature is prohibited from to which private or local laws may apply, in such matters, must be taken by the enactment of general laws. The amendment includes in the list of matters to which private or local laws may apply, association, association or individual the right to prove a claim against the state or any civil division thereof, or authorizing a civil division to allow or pay a claim or acco-Section 12.10. The legislature shall neither audit nor allow any private claim or account against the state or account any money to pay such claims and account against the state as shall have been audited and allowed according to law. ABSTRACT.—This amendment is to prevent allowing any private claim or account against a civil division of the state, thus extending the existing provision which prohibits the legislature from auditing or accounting for money to pay such claims against the state. As to claims against the state, the spirit of the prohibition has been sometimes overlooked by the direct appropriation of money to the legislature to pay such claims and accounted for. The section as amended will prohibit that practice. Section 12.11. The amount of two-thirds of the members罢了 to each branch of the legislature will be paid, the bill appropriating the public money or property for local or private purposes. No public money or property shall be an appropriated for the construction or improvement of a building, furnishing, waterway or other work plans and estimates of the cost of such work shall have been filed with the secretary of state by the superintendent of public works, together with the budget for the construction of the state then requires that such improvement be made at state expense. This section shall not apply to the contributions of the state to the budget for grade递增 or in-stream from the budget for grade递增 from the proceeds of bourse authorized under section four of article six of the constitution or section four of former article seven thereon as in force on the first day of January, 1999. **Abstract.** The second paragraph is the matter added to the section and comprises the entire amendment. Under proposed article six the superintendent of public works has full charge of the works it is believed that his estimates of money needed therefore afford the best source of information for the legislature to not upon in appropriating money thereon. Such information is beneficial to particular localities. The amendment is designed to have the necessity for an improvement determined in each case on its merits and not by the budget. In order to please the voters of his district, the effect of the last sentence is to leave the legislature free to appropriate money, without a certificate from the superintendent of public works, for eliminating grade grades and for certain highway construction. Section [21.12]. No money shall ever be paid out of the treasury of this state or other government, nor shall the management, except in pursuance of an appropriation by law, nor unless such payment be made not later than three months after the close of the fiscal year and made made; within two years next after the passage of such appropriation not, and every such law, making a new appropriation, continuing the appropriation, electively the sum appropriated, and the object to which it is to be applied; and it shall not be sufficient for such law to refer to any appropriation, continuing the appropriation made by the legislature in the year one thousand and hundred and eleventh shall be made for a period ending the thirteenth day of June, and for a period ending the fourteenth day of June, and therefore the fiscal year of the state shall be on the thirteenth day of June of each year, unless otherwise provided by law. Abstract.—This amendment makes the following conditions: At present appropriation is made for time from the year through the year, two years from the date of their passage. The amendment makes them expire at a deniate date of the fiscal year, and therefore the fiscal year of the fiscal year in which they were made. At present the fiscal year begins October first. The amendment brings to effect the time when the signature adjourns. [22. Sections seventeen and eighteen of this article shall not apply to any bill, or the amendments to any bill, which shall be presented to the then legislators who have been appointed pursuant to law to revise the statutes.] Abstract.—This section is eliminated because the statutory provision thereof is the only one completed its work paid. attachment shall be limited in its operation. to such appropriation, which imposes, continues or revives a tax, shall distinctly state the tax, and the object to which it is sufficient, to refer to any other law to such tax or object. house of the legislature, of any act which imposes, continues or revives a tax, or creates a debt, or charge, or public or trust money or property, or releases discharges or commutes any claim or demand taken by yeas and nays, which shall be duly enforced upon the journals, and three such cases, house shall in all such cases, be necessary to constitute a quorum thereth.] ABSTRACT—The elimination of either house of the legislature, from defeating, by mere absence, the enactment of finance, or the ascent of a majority of the members.
