Now that the Allies have borrowed our money to pay for powder and guns, we are not surprised if we are not considered neutral by the German allies.

WHAT THE SUNSHINE
The Los Angeles church refuses to have the Rev. Jesse Peck return, and Bishop Parks is not wanted on the district any longer after making the terrible blunder and the Los Angeles church refuses to extend to him the courtesies of honor due his high igh office. This makes Bishop Parks back down and he must send a new man to Los Angeles. Some wanted to retain Dr. Greggs. Rev. Peck goes to Portland. Although the Sunshine had previously announced the appointment, Rev. Peck absolutely refused to be directed by our forecast and preferred to-wait for conference to fix things, gets in big mess and is transferred, just as the Sunshine predicted. Bishop Parks can't fill the shoes of the late Bishop Grant.
It is to be hoped that the 15th-street Church will be supplied with a pastor in keeping with their wishes customs and practices. If we were a shouting and noisy bunch we would like a minister with plenty of fire but we are not fiery or loud, and we do not want these old-time fire-eaters who reach up, as it were, on the throne and bring down blessings. It is further hoped that the officers of the Negro churches will see to it that the trustees and officers do their duty and lift their offerings and not have the pastor lowering his dignity by begging his head off and that, too, right after his sacred sermon. Let the officers do the begging and run the business end of the church without being insulted.

The company is housed in a modern brick building one of the main streets. The company has grown from infancy to where it is now. It has extended to three States. This is an inspiration to the young Western Negroes and it commands him to go and be something in the business world. Strive to make a man in life. Learn to do business.

Prominent Colored Insurance Man Visits Coast
Mr. A. M. Moore, M.D., Secretary of the North Carolina Mutual Insurance Co., one of the foremost business enterprises in the United States conducted by Negroes, was a pleasant caller at our office on last Monday, September 20th. Dr. Moore is one of the founders of the North Carolina Mutual. We were more than pleased to have met the secretary, a man from our own State, our home, a boy who was raised in the old North State. He knew our folks, and it was like getting a letter from home to meet
EQUAL RIGHTS IN FRANCE.
The Diagne Bill Gives Military Privi-
ligences to All Alike.
Paris. The chamber of deputies in this city has three colored deputies representing the colonies from which they are sent by the suffrage of their fellow citizens. A dispatch from Paris recently says that the race and color question that was raised in the French chamber of deputies by the bill of the Negro deputy, M. Diaign, representing Senegal, providing for the extension of general compulsory military service in France to colonial municipalities whose inhabitants enjoy French citizenship, was presented in numerous new lights and complications at the session of the chamber.
The question of how to apporti a pension in cases of polygamit Senegalese leaving several widows proved a poser for the deputies. The minister of war and the military committee of the chamber approved the general provisions of the Diagne bill, which provide for the incorporation with the regular French forces of the Senegalese subject to compulsory service. The action of the committee was immediately attacked by Deputy Labrone, who pictured the difficulties arising from the presence in the French army of soldiers unable to speak French and of different religion and social customs.
Deputy Labrone also raised the question of confusion in the payment of pensions to the widows of polygamous Senegalese. He proposed an amendment providing for the incorporation of such troops in native regiments entitled .o pensions and the other rights of French citizens. The speaker was frequently interrupted by protests from ship rally at the Witerspoon Fryshterian church the last week in September. The society was organized eight years ago and has accomplished much good. who came down to the south, braving abuse from the rabble and ostracism from the thoughtless people of that section, I am glad to offer my humble testimony to the zeal and devotion of those southern white women.
Their mantle may have fallen on others who today even in the state of Georgia may be laboring side by side with the good men and women from the north who are successfully striving to prepare the Negro more fully to discharge the high responsibilities of American citizenship.
Soon this nation may be called upon as the champion of liberty to make good our claim by representing to the world a bold and undivided front, but how shall we do so while 100,000,000 of loyal citizens are ruthlessly and continually discriminated against?
What we need at this time as never before are such measures as tend to harmonize the various elements that enter into the development of that liberty of which Lincoln spoke at Gettysburg.
GOOD WORK OF THE LINCOLN SETTLEMENT FOR CHILDREN
Worthy Brooklyn Institution Successes,
Though In Need of Funds.
The management of the Lincoln settlement on Fleet place, Brooklyn, is very much encouraged over the playground facilities for the children of the neighborhood. The grounds were inspected recently at a public function held at the settlement and were pronounced by expert social workers to be up to the mark in both management and equipment.
The institution has had a hard struggle for the past five years. The immediate friends of the settlement have been loyal to it and have given liberally of their time and money for its maintenance. About eighteen months ago an appeal to the public was made for funds with which to carry on the work. The response was quite generous. Through the efforts and influence of the officials a sufficient sum was raised to put the building in first class condition, making more room and better facilities for taking care of the large number of children. The building is under the direct supervision of Dr. V. Morton-Jones, a well known and capable physician and social worker. Mrs. Jones has created great interest in the work and won many friends to its support. She is assisted by other competent women in looking after the various details in connection with the day nursery, games, etc.
Funds, however, are needed, and the public of Brooklyn and any other cities is asked to aid in this worthy work for the little ones of our race. The white people have been very generous toward the institution from its inspection. The building is located at 105 Fleet place. The officers of the Lincoln settlement are: Miss Mary White Ovington, president; Dr. Henry Neumann, first vice president; Dr. William M. Brundage, second vice president; Mr. W. D. C. Field, treasurer; 224 Henry street; Mrs. Francis A. Wilson, secretary. 45 Sidney place.
Georgia's Educational Color Line Law.
In discussing the matter of white teachers in schools for colored people at the south the New York Eventing Post wisely says: "Both races will profit by the close relationship, and no one will profit more than the white people of the south, for to them the Negro question is much more important than it is to the northerner. At the same time it is a national problem, and if Georgia writes this law on her statute books she will offend not only herself, but the whole country, by taking a step toward the complication and not toward the solution of the problem."

Mr. Springer, who is now located in the Bacon Block, Oakland, in the real estate business, is a man that comes well recommended and one that is not only a credit to his race but to the whole human race as well. His congenial ways and business qualities will no doubt have a tendency to make the business in which he is engaged a success. He was born in New York and came West in the interest of a concession at the Exposition, but on account of differences that existed he changed his plans and entered the real estate business. Mr. Springer has also succeeded in getting the agency for the northern state of the Travelers Insurance of Herford, Conn. He has absolute full charge of the railroad insurance of this company. Here is an honor conferred upon one of our race that has never been bestowed before on anyone. We have found him just as he is recommended, corgienial and always ready when you enter his office, 77 B-con Block, to assist those that need assistance. He is reliable and honest in his business transactions, which is everything to a man's business.
The young men who are running the Marino Hall dancing school on Thursday evenings will make it a point to dispense with the school whenever it interferees with a date taken by any fraternal or charitable organization. They are also in a position to rent Marion Hall at a reduced price on Monday, Tuesday and Thursday and Friday evenings, and solicit the patronage of the public.
It is requested that the general public of the bay. cities will rally towards attending the entertainment at Hamilton's Auditorium on August 26, as Rev. Peck is doing everything that is in his power to make this the greatest affair that has ever been witnessed in Oakland.

I had a bad cough about nine months ago; also had female trouble. Seemed to me no doctor could cure me. They said that I had cough, and had gave me Dr. Woo a trial, but as a result, Dr. Woo's treatment I began to get better and stronger every day. I am now a perfectly well woman, cannot express my thanks to this wonderful Christina, and had not been for him I would not be alive to care for my little ones. I am very delighted to recommend Dr. Woo to all who are sick. I know this statement they may call or write to my residence.

SAMUEL WILLIAMS' VIEWS.
Questions Wisdom of Georgia's Proposed Color Line Law For Teachers. There is much logic in the article of Mr. Samuel Williams of Windsor, VT, with reference to the attitude of the Georgia legislature toward white teachers in schools for colored people. Mr. Williams says: I learned through the newspapers recently that a measure had been passed by one branch of the legislature of the state of Georgia barring white teachers from colored schools. For the honor it has, that state, the nation and the constitution it is to be hoped it will fall to become a law, as it certainly could not be classed as constructive legislation such as the age and the times demand.
After the civil war, when things became somewhat settled, many white ladies in the south, being reduced in circumstances, entered schools that had been established for colored children as teachers. Some had been large slave owners, and their object was not purely mercenary. They desired to repair in part the damage done by the cruel system of which they had formed a part.
They began their 'abors, it is true, with no very high opinion of the mental capacity of the Negro, but soon learned to love their work, and in many instances showed tender solicitude for those under their care, visited them in sickness and personally sought the tardy and delinquent.
During my later school years it was my good fortune to have as teachers three ladies of the class to which I refer, and when I was about to leave school it was one of these who grasped my hand and bade me godsped.
While I remember with deepest gratitude the *t* it benefits I had received in my earlier years from that noble band of men and women of the north "There were times when things looked dark and discouragement boomed high, but we had only to turn to a little card which we had tacked upon the wall which reads, 'Feaven is not gained by a single bound, but we build the ladder by which we rise,' etc. This gave us new hope and greater courage On this, the Recorder's first birthday we find in summing up that we have made a great stride toward the coveted goal, and with the same good fortune that has attended us in the past we shall ultimately reach the desired end. We extend today our best wishes to our readers and supporters, and we wish them the greatest success.
"The Recorder has passed the infant stage. From an expensive experiment it has partly reached the happy realization of our fondest dreams. Our endeavors have been crowned with a success that has won the patronage and esteem of many subscribers and advertisers in a field of more than 400 colored publications.
"We take this opportunity to thank our many hundreds of subscribers, advertisers, voluntary contributors and well wishers. The encouraging letters received have been many, and they generally at a time when they were most welcome. Our appreciation is evident by our efforts to please. In the installation of interesting features which we are able to get from time to time we hope to cover a whole field. "We invite suggestions and criticisms from subscribers and readers. They are always welcome. The Recorder is for the benefit of our people as a race and we respectfully invite the public to make it their home companion."

BUSINESS LEAGUE NOTES.
National Organization Keeps In Close Touch With Racial Enterprises
Boston—With Nacal Enterprise.
Boston—the National Negro Business league, which meets here on Wednesday, Aug. 18, says in its notes on racial progress: The Brown Saving bank of Norfolk, Va., is in a very healthy condition. E.C. Brown is president and William M. Rich cashier. The business was started six years ago, with total assets of $10,434. It has increased to $67,272.09. It is still increasing at the rate of from $20,000 to $30,000 annually.
The Christmas Saving club feature is very popular. In 1914 the bank paid to the depositors in this club the sum of $23,000. At the rate the members of the club are now making weekly deposits the outlook is favorable for the return of $100,000 the forthcoming Christmas week to the fortunate depositors.
The league also notes that our people in Virginia pay taxes on real and personal property to the amount of $43,743,022. They pay taxes on personal property and real estate in the city of Virginia to the amount of $1,180,062.

I convince the most doubtful, will give to anyone mentioning this announcement a seven days' treatment of herbs at half price. This is barely enough to cover the cost of the herbs. At the end of this trial you will be able to judge for yourself just how efficient this herb treatment is. We have letters of thanks for cures of almost every known disease. These letters from local and out-of-town sufferers are open to your inspection at our office. The following are two of the many letters showing the high regard in which we are held by our many grateful patients: Dr. Chan. Dear Sir: I am pleased to testify to the merits of your Chinese Herbs, which I had occasion to use for stomach trouble, after trying several physicians for three years and obtained no relief. Yours truly. E. SHERMAN, 1739 Buchan St., S. F. Chan and Kong Herb Co.

MANY NEGRC DOLLS BEING
SENT OUT.
Nashville, Tenn.—An announcement was made by the Nationz. Negro Doll Company that their rush season, which it usually has during the Christmas, is just now on. This is occasioned, declares the manager of the company, on account of the delay in the importation of material from which these dolls are made. The ship was caught and held as a prize of war and was only recently released, hence the material did not reach Nashville until Christmas day. But the people, says the manager, were so determination to have the size dolls wanted that they are replied, "We need to get the big dolls." While hundreds of small dolls sent out, the manager declares that it was surprising to note that the people wanted the dolls ranging in sizes from seventeen to thirty-six inches. The orders are being rapidly sent out. Many of the churches have sent in orders that they might conduct their bazaars. Dolls will be shipped throughout the year, declares the manager of the Doll Company, as we are ready to fill orders as they come.

Ashbury P. K. N. J. The People's Recorder, E. M. and F. S. Webster owners, celebrated its first anniversary on Friday, July 30. The venture has been very successful, notwithstanding in the beginning the owners of the paper had to employ a New York printer to do the work in New York city each week. Many of it.—The next meeting of the Land Grant college, conference will be held in this city, beginning on Friday morning, July 30 at 10 o'clock. Professor Byrd Prieferman, president of the West Virginia Collegiate institute, at Institute, W. Va., is chairman of the conference and will preside at the coming session. The good effect of these conferences upon the various schools of the Land Grant college order has been the subject of much favourable comment.
The idea of having the representatives of the institutions fostered by the Land Grant college meet once or twice a year to discuss the many phases of work and detail connected with such agricleum and industrial schools has proved to be a move in the right direction. The paramount object of the presidents of these schools is to establish as far as possible a uniform system of teaching, discipline and general school management.
The program of subjects and speakers for the meeting to be held in Cincinnati will be as follows:

R. McDonnell of the Hancock, Virginia, and Mr. W. J. Edwards, principal of the Snow Hill institute, Snow Hill, Ala., to attend with the trustees during their deliberations. Dr. Washington's annual report was the chief incident at the meeting. He reported an enrollment during the year of 1,537 students from thirty-two states and territories, ninety-two of these coming from nineteen foreign countries or colonies of foreign countries. Dr. Washington reported the total receipts during the year from all sources for current expenses, buildings and improvements, endowment fund and from undesignated legacies, a total of $379,708.83. The endowment fund of the school is now $1,970,214.
A particular reason for rejoicing at the meeting was a report made showing that practically $100,000 has been raised for the modern steam heating and power plant which was recently completed at Tuskegee at a cost of $274,000 in addition to the money also raised for current expenses. When the trustees met last February for their midwinter meeting at Tuskegee there was due to be raised to complete payment on the steam heating and power plant $97,520.
A systematic campaign was put under way to raise this money, and during the month of June the whole country had been divided into five parts and had been effectively canvassed. When the trustees met in June the report was made that the amount needed for the steam and power plant had been oversubscribed, two of the trustees alone raising their individual gifts of $10,000 to $12,500 each.
The budget for the next fiscal year calls for an expenditure of $291,567.

World's Christian Endeavor Society on Side of Golden Rule.
The Richmond (Va.) Times-Dispatch gives the following account of what happened at one session of the recent World's Christian Endeavor convention recently held in Chicago. It says: Moved by services of men prominent in church and business life of the south, 30 southern men and women, delegate to the World's Christian Endeavor convention, in session at Chicago, acknowledged brotherhood with the Nervous race and determined to extend it the hand of fellowship.
Out of this idea is to grow the southern extension committee of the Christian Endeavor, which the Rev. Ira Landreth of Nashville, Tenn., calls the beginning of the interdenominational union of the colored people.
"We are going to take the Christian Endeavor into the Negro churches," said Dr. Landreth, "organize new societies and help millions of blacks to enlightenment. God has placed at our door the greatest opportunity for Christian work that ever came to any missionaries anywhere."
"Until the men rise up and say, 'I will not kill,' nations will war with one another," according to Daniel A. Poling, citizenship superintendent of the United Society of the Christian Endeavor H. declared that neither arbitration treaties nor neutrality agreements will bring everlasting and universal peace.
"The message of the Christian Endeavor is patriotic," said Mr. Poling. "The patriotism of Christian Endeavor is practicable, and addresses itself to the foes of the state.
"These foes are intemperance and war. Against them the young people's movement hurls the flower of the world, the youth of the kingdom. Christian Endeavor can and will enroll millions of young people from all sects, colors and nationalities in the peace union which was the vision of President Clark. These millions will proclaim the fulfilment of the sixth commandment. These will declare 'I will not kill.'" For the benevolence of those who may not know it, we will to state that the Christian Endeavor society work is no new thing in the colored people. The work of the organization is strong in the A. M. E. and A. M. E. Zion churches and some other denominations. It is not popular with the Baptist Commission. The chief religious feature among Baptists, aside from the church and Sunday school for young people, is the Baptist young people's union.

With Muscle and Speeches by Eminent Men, Public Turns Out En Masse to Witness Event of National Interest. W. Monroe Trotter Speaks For Our Race.
Boston. — A few minutes before 6 o'clock on the afternoon of July 5 the veil fell from the $20,000 bronze statue of Wendell Phillips in the Public Garden, and a crowd of from 5,000 to 6,000 acclaimed with cheers and patriotic song Daniel Chester French's almost speaking memorial of Boston's famous orator and abolitionist.
As the sun was sinking belid rain clouds in the west little John G. Phillips, Jr., the great grandnephew of Wendell Phillips, the man who declared that if he lived long enough he would make Boston streets so sure to bear the footsteps of a slave, pulped the cord releasing the mantle which for several weeks had velled the statue. As the folds fell away from the figure of the great abolitionist "Glory, Glory, Hallelujah!" burst from a chorus of colored singers. Fervent was the prayer of Rev. Montrose W. Thornton, pastor of the historic Charles Street church and also chairman of the executive committee of the local Equal Rights league branch; sterling and practical the tribute of the acting mayor, George W. Coleman, a man of Wendell Phillips' principles, as was every speaker.
Illuminating and forceful was the life story by Secretary William D. Brigham. Sweet and inspiring were the singing by the colored singers, led by Dr. Walter O. Taylor and J. Therman Jones, and the music of the brass band of Company L. Sixth regiment of Massachusetts militia. Picturesque and touching was the encomium by the only survivor of the New England abolitionists, Frank R. Sanborn, now eighty-three years old, still active, a coworker with Phillips. Earnest and unqualified was the praise by the spokesman for colored Americans, W. M. Trotter.
Fired with eloquence born of love was the eulogy of Ireland's friend and friend of all oppressed by Michael J. Jordan, son of O'Connell's island home; tuneful and noble the paean of the poet of the occasion, grandson of Phillips' party leader, bearer, his name, William Lloyd Garrison. Every participant was an emulator of the "Prophet of Liberty, Champion of the Slave," while the colored women of the Woman's Relief corps held the colors.
The monument, a masterpiece by Daniel Chester French, the sculptor, represents the great abolitionist standing at a reading desk, his right hand resting upon the desk, his left outstretched and holding a bit of broken letter. Upon the marble background, above the head of the statue, are the words, "Whether In Chains or In Laurels, Liberty Knows Nothing but Victory." On the pedestal, in front, are the words in raised bronze letters:
On the reverse side of the background is this quotation from Phillips: "I love 'expressively these streets of Boston, over whose pavements my mother held up tenderly my baby feet, and if God grants me time enough I will make them too pure to bear the footsteps of a slave." The exercises were opened by Mr. William D. Brigham, secretary of the Wendell Phillips Memorial association, who introduced the acting mayor, George W. Coleman, president of the city council.
Mr. Coleman then introduced, in turn, four speakers, who presented a verbal panorama of Wendell Phillips life. William D. Brigham spoke on "Morning - Youth and Vision;" Franklin Benjamin Sawborn on "Noon-the abolitionist Perk"; William Monroe Trotter on "Afternoon - Citizenship For the Colored American;" and Michael J. Jordan "Evening - What Mr. Phillips Did For Ireland." Mr. Coleman, in introducing William Monroe Trotter, said that nothing was so appropriate as for the colored race to have a spokesman in dedicating a monument to Wendell Phillips and that there could be no more fit representative than William Monroe Trotter.
Mr. Trotter said that Wendell Phillips was the originator of the north's policy of reconstruction and a pioneer advocate of the ballot for colored Americans. No man had done more for the cause of human rights, perhaps, than Wendell Phillips, save Charles Sumner. Wendell Phillips was among the first to announce emancipation as the purpose of the war and to urge that the people of color should be used as soldiers to help to save the Union. He was a pioneer in the movement for suffrage. He saw to it that slavery should be torn up by the roots and that as far as federal law was concerned every man, white and black, should have citizenship and suffrage. Wendell Phillips believed, as we do, that the greatest thing is human freedom, said Mr. Trotter, and it can be maintained without equality there can be no equality withc ballot.
William A. Method, who are members of the executive committee of the Supreme Lodge Entertainment association, who attended the session held at Kenia, lost no time after adjournment of the grand lodge to return to this city to assume their work in connection with the other members of the total committee who are completing the arrangements for entertaining the supreme session and encampment here on Aug. 15. The executive committee has been busy for the past few weeks in assigning homes to those who have written in advance for them.

Baton Rogue, ‘a—at through the
south young people are taking advan-
tage of the opportunities offered them
to get an education, and every year
bright young men and women are be-
‘ing turned out from the various schools
lof the country. Not only are the pri-
vate schools well attended, but the
state schools as well. ‘The state of
Louisiana is now reorganizing South:
jer unversity and A. and M. college, @
‘state school for colored people, with
opportunities equal to those of any
other state.
‘This institution was Grst located in
New Orleans, where it stood for about
thirty-four years, administering large-
ly to the needs of the people of that
jelty. ‘The legislature felt that the
fschool was not serving its greatest
purpose, Therefore a bill was passed
two years ago moving the school from
New Orleans to a country site five

miles north of Baton Rouge. Ten
months ago this institution threw open
{ts doors for the reception of students.
‘At that time the school was opened
in temporary buildings, and the class-
rooms, workshops and even dormito-
rles were nothing more than planta-
tion houses. But these houses have
given way to several splendid brick
Dulldings, completed in modern style
and well furnished. ‘The Administra.
tion building, a three story brick, was
erected at a cost of $25,000. ‘This ts
one of the most modern schoo! butld-
Ings in the state of Louisiana.
‘The institution has its own power
plant and its own artesian well. Hight
Duildings, including the president's
home, temporary dining hall, “shops
and others, have been erected ‘or ren-
‘ovated in the past ten months. ‘The
institution had 252 pupils the past
term. The courses of study are college,
teachers’ training, commercial, includ-
ing printing, domestle art, domestic
sclence; blacksmithing, including horse-
shoelng and wheelwrighting; carpen-
try, including tinsmithing, brick ma-
sonry, broom and mattress making;
agriculture, including dairying and
stock raising.
Professor J. 8. Clark, who stands at
the head of this institution, 1s one of
the sons of Loulstana and ts constd=r-
ed one of the best trained men as well
as one of the best school managers in
the state. He is a close observer,
quick thinker and exact in business.
He knows how to deal with the
school's situation. He fs the first mem-
ber of our race elected to the presi-
dency of this school. He has done
‘more in the way of building up @ great
Institution for Louisiana, interesting
the white friends to give money, than
any of his predecessors
Notwithstanding the appropriation
for the institution last year was only
$95,000, President Clark, has rightly
maneuvered and honestly talked te his
board, the governor and the state su:
Derintendent so that these people have
geen the necessity of supplementing
this sum so as to make for Louisiana
a threefold yield to the legislature's
appropriation. He stands well among
the people of his state, and there is no
colored man in all Loulsiana who i
more highly respected than the presi-
dent of Southern university. He fs re-
liable in every way. Perhaps this 1s
the secret of the rapid growth of South:
ern university.
Professor Clark pays his teachers for'
every month in the year. Well known
all over the country as he is and recog-
nized by all school men, he is determin-
ed to make Southern university one of!
the best state scliools for colored peo-
ple in the south. He is a man that
ean stand up and do the right, not only
because he is well trained, clean and
upright in his character, but he has
managed to so live and conduct him-
self that he has some of the world’s
goods to his credit. He may be con-
sidered from an Intellectual, moral and
financial point to be the right man to
head a great Institution like Southern
