"HERE SHALL THE PRESS, THE PEOPLE'S RIGHTS MAINTAIN, UNAWEI BY INFLUENCE AND UNBRIBED BY GAIN" ESTABISHED 1882 The Fairfax Golored Fair The Fairfax Golored Fair In company with James A.Savoy the dean of the tonsorial artists of the House of Representatives I left Washington on Tuesday October the 14th. about 8 o'clock A.M. and at a few minutes of ten we entered the above named Fair Grounds and the first man to greet us was Mr. Horton of Fairfax Court House. There were about five thousand people on the ground, mostly farmers of Fairfax County, including a Grand Stand with a seating capacity of about fifteen hundred people. Their exhibits of live stock and farm products were fine, which consisted of about everything that is produced by first class farmers; such as draft horses, saddle and driving horses, milch cows with calves. Sheep and hogs were all fine as were their poultry, chickens, turkeys, geese and ducks. The canned fruit department was presided over as one of the Judges by Miss Julia Parker, daughter of Col. Charles Parker of Clifton, Va. a prosperous farmer of that section. There were more than one hundred carriages and buggies on the ground, not including about fifteen Ford Auto cars, besides trucks hauling twenty five and thirty people at a load. Hon Thomas L. Jones, formerly of Va., but now of the District of Columbia, evidently felt at home on Virginia soil. He addressed the association, speaking for about one hour and thirty minutes. He said many encouraging things to the colored people, notwithstanding their ups and downs between the lines of demarcation. He pictured the Negro as playing an important part in the affairs of the world since the time, when God said: "Let there be Light and there was Light" to the present time. He said he knew a Negro was there, somewhere, if standing behind a tree watching what was going on. Many of the prominent white people of Fairfax County attended the Fair. Among them were the Supt. of Free Schools, the Clerk of the Courts of Fairfax County, members of his family and many others. The Odd Fellows of Alexandria gave a drill that seemed to be perfect, as their steps, right abouts, left abouts and face abouts seemed to be all blended in one. The brass band played well and people seemed to enjoy their music. I think they were from Hagerstown. N. G. EDUCATION FOR LIFE Now that the educational world is so alive to the importance of giving boys and girls satisfactory training for better citizenship, Hampton Institute has acted wisely in collecting and publishing the sayings and teachings of the founder, Gen. S. C. Armstrong, a man of active ideas and ideals—ideals which are still a working basis in the field of education. "Education for Life," an attractive pamphlet of 54 pages, printed by Hampton tradesmen, contains General Armstrong's thought-provoking and emergency-meeting ideas of "Education of the Hand," "Education of the Mind," and "Education of the Character," as well as a reprint of his first report. Dr. Francis G. Peabody of Harvard University, a Hampton trustee and distinguished teacher of Christian morals, contributes an introduction, which reveals General Armstrong's "gift of educational prophecy." Miss Helen W. Ludlow, one of Hampton's most faithful and efficient workers, adds a Biographical Note, which shows the fine, Christian spirit of Armstrong and the Hampton School. William Anthony Aery. THE NEW BIRTH Men need not die again to rise With resurrection in their eyes, If but the selfish spirit dies. We need not wait for birth above Some dreaming prophet tells us of, While we have hearts and men need love. Who thinks a thought for other men, Who lifts a brother's burden, then Is with his brother born again. A resurrection I behold More tender than the vision old Of skies of blue and harps of gold— No storied sphere, no fabled land— A resurrection here at hand The simplest soul can understand. The men are learning more and more The greater lessons, later lore, The things they were created for; The new idea the broader birth, Turns fears to joy and pain to mirth; The new idea girds the earth. We shall not rise who seek to rise For our own selves to sainted skies While 'round about us sorrow lies. Nay, we shall rise by kneeling near Some brother soul with song of cheer Shall rise by bringing heaven here. QUAKER WIT "Somewhere in France" there is at work a group of English Quakers, whose cool courage and tireless devotion in rescuing and tending the wounded on many a battlefield have won them, despite their peace principles, the hearty respect and liking of both "Tommies" and "piou-pious." Among them is one young man whose ancestors for several generations have been notable more for wit and spirit than for the virtues oftenest associated with drab coats and broad hat brims. It was a member of that family, a century or more ago, that found himself by chance in a carriage with a very fine lady attired in the low-necked short-sleeved muslin dress then in the height of fashion adorned by a profusion of jewels and trinkets, and protected only by a lace shawl as light as a cobweb. A chilly wind blew up suddenly, and she exclaimed, shivering, "What shall I do to get warm?" "I really don't know" said the Quaker sympathetically, "unless thee put on another breast-pin." Youth's Companion. SATURDAY. Two Notables On Americanism Oswald Garrison Villard's recent speech against hyphenated Americanism was a telling one. Mr. Villard was himself born on German soi and of a German father, yet he is amazed at the divided citizenship of some Americans of German ancestry. He referred to Carl Schurz, and his true Americanism and said "What would amaze him more than to find unnumbered Germans who, like himself, come to this country to escape the very militaristic autocracy that now uphold, today, denouncing the nation that adopted and sheltered and fed and clothed them." Other races have shown strong tendencies to form distinct bodies; Mr. Villard said, but the German propaganda is, so far, the most extensive. He then asked if it were true, as contended, that the German Kultur and political system were superior to the scheme of life and government in America, why the hordes who have flocked here did not go to Germany instead. Mr Villard said, that to allow nationalistic groups to develop in this country such as they have in Austria-Hungary would be most disastrous. He said such a proposal was "unthinkable to a true minded American." For many years it has been the custom to treat colored people as aliens, although they are more than ninety-nine per cent of American birth, and there is a growing tendency among the colored people to regard themselves as aliens. This is being encouraged by a class of leaders who call themselves "Negroes" and yell about "Negro Kultur" although they have not more than half and often less than one-eighth of Negro blood. Such men ought to stop the "Negro propaganda and be Americans and demand justice because they are Americans and not by the false assertion that they are "Negroes." They should not have rights as "Negroes" but every right of an American citizen should be accorded them, if they fight for their rights as American citizens by right of birth. - St. Paul, (Minn.')

You don't want yours, like so many others, to be received with indifference or worse, and ten days after Christmas to be cast aside and forgotten. You take no such chance in giving The Youth's Companion for a year. Did you ever know of a home in which it came amiss, or of one in which it was not conspicuous on the library table or in some one's hands all through the year? It is worth while to make a gift of that sort, and it is worth while to receive it, too, for The Companion illustrates the best traits in American life in its stories and sketches, upholds the best standards in its articles and other contributions, and combines the practical and informing with the entertaining and blood-stirring. If you do not know the Companion as it is today, let us send you one or two current issues free, that you may thoroughly test the paper's quality. We will send also the Forecast for 1916. Every new subscriber who sends $2,00 for the fifty-two weekly issues of 1916 will receive free all the issues for the rest of 1915 and The Companion Home Calendar for 1916.

The Siamese Tonknot A Siamese child, whether boy or girl, wears its hair in a little topknot until it has attained the age of eleven or twelve years. On reaching this age the topknot cutting ceremony takes place. The child is dressed in its best, and amid much rejoicing of relatives and friends the topknot is cut, one lock at a time. The head is then completely shaved by the priests. All guests invited to the ceremony bring presents, usually money, which is carefully invested for the child by its parents or guardians. A young prince or princess will sometimes receive as much as $25,000 in presents at his or her topknot cutting ceremony, while a poor child may get $10 or $15.—Wide World Magazine. The Red Squirrel When the red squirrel begins tapping maple trees for the gap the animal makes an incision in the bark and waits until the sap has trickled a short distance down the trunk of the tree. He then begins at the bottom of the stream and licks up until he has reached the source of the flow, when he again waits and repeats the performance until satisfied. THE SKILLED WORKMAN All admire the living wonder who's an expert at his trade, who is quick and skilled as thunder, with his jimmy, brush or blade. I have watched an earnest toiler, as he mends the pans and pots, puts new handles on the boiler, solders up the leaky spots; and he never wastes a motion, every move some purpose serves; and it is a balm and lotion to the soul to watch his curves. Oh, we meet so many tinkers who have only learned to fail, that all sane and soulful thinkers wonder why they are not in jail. I have watched the men who blunder, botch things up with saw or spade, and I blessed the living wonder who has really learned his trade. If I had a hundred nicces, I would say to them, "My dears, if you wish to save the pieces, as you journey down the years, you will learn some stunt and do it, better than all other maids; locate knowledge and pursue it, till you're perfect in your trades. Stringing beans or paring apples, darning socks or skimming milk, winding clocks or scrubbing chapels, let your work be fine as silk.—Uncle Walt.

Give Rockefeller A Square Deal Some fun has been poked at John D. Rockefeller, jr., but a great deal of credit has been given him by the press of the country for his personal investigation into the mining conditions of his properties in Colorado. None but the extremely prejudiced will throw any doubt on his intentions to relieve the hardships the miners have complained of when his plans for the betterment of the physical surroundings and working conditions of the miners are carefully studied. The most important changes his plans suggest are the limit placed on house rents, the freedom granted in the purchase of supplies, the establishment of an eight-hour working day and the arrangements made for the appeal of miners in all disputes. Nor is the welfare work outlined in the plans to be considered lightly in the advancement of the miner and his family. It is also encouraging that the plan submitted was unanimously endorsed by the mine officers and miners' representatives. The final adoption of these conciliatory measures is put up to the directors of the Colorado Fuel and Iron Company and the referendum of the miners of all the camps under the jurisdiction of the company. While the plan does not prohibit the miners from holding membership in the union, it is not to be recognized in any controversies that may arise, such matters to be settled by conferences of representatives of miners and the employers. It is hoped that the United Mine Workers' organization will see in these plans the conciliatory spirit back of them, and not insist on technical rights which would lessen the hope of a final settlement of the contentions which have so long held that section of the country in a state of turmoil and worse.—Wheeling Intelligencer. GERMANY PREPARED The strength of Germany is in her system of tariff protection. When the war broke out the allies figured they could starve her into submission by keeping out supplies. But they now realize at the end of the first year of the struggle that she is self-supporting. Although surrounded on all sides by enemies, she produces within her borders sufficient food and materials for her wants, and to spare. What would be the condition of Germany to-day if she had Anglicized her economic policy as Wilson has the policy of United States and produced only those things which she could produce the most cheaply? And yet there are some persons who still give an attentive ear to the theories of John Cobden, and cast their votes for his disciples. Manifestations of friendship often count for naught when the time comes for a show-down. Entered in Post Office at Martinsburg, W. Va., in Second Class Matter. J. M. Clifford, Editor and Proprietor. Bowser 809, and Bell 'Phone 60K, Martinsburg, W. Va. A white resident of this city anent the socalled Virginia debt, is so worked up he intends to sell his home and leave the state. The editor of this paper owns several houses, but has no idea of selling any of them because of a fraud, that we have no right to pay. We expect to live right here and never intend to pay a penny of that old slave-made debt. As we look at it, its no debt of West Virginia. Thousands of people scattered to the four corners of the globe own those old musty bonds and no one but the bondholders have a right in court. We shall plead exemption of common-sense and endorse the bonds:—Montana Semper Liberi. Is a crushing finality coming to this money-getting crazed country? If christianized, why not live the life?. That life would be peace makers in war. Are we that? No! Living where everything on earth can be made to grow for man's good, why a war tax when no war? Half clad, starving and dying as at least a fourth of our population is, why do our elected officials aid a foreign war, by selling our products abroad to keep it going on, deprive our own hungry poor of the food products of their soil? Meat, compound, flour—everything even shells—"have gone up"—some "out of sight," Why? for no other reason than to enrich the rich, even though many good thinkers contend that if it were not for the far-off war, this country would be in the worst condition ever known, owing to democratic blunders and misrule. To do right, no aid should be given to carry on Sherman's designated hell—the worst the world ever knew. But pray tell us why do we help and at the same time prepare for war, if it is foreseen, why not keep everything at home? The Pioneer Press received a lithographed poster, 30x20, showing the necessity of educating three million foreigners who can neither read nor write, their own language, and can't speak ours. In the face of this shocking additional ignorance to this country, s own, Uncle Sam smilingly grasps the hand of one of the 3,000,000 and urges him to learn his language and become Americanized. This 3,000,000, include Italians, Polanders, Yiddish, Lithuanian, Bohemian and Hungarian. What a task! Why not see to it that every living born American be properly educated? Can these ignorant foreigners by education be made as good or better American lovers and citizens than the well treated and educated of our own? Are we blind? Is not the stubborn conditions of our internal affairs owing to the influx of the riffraff of this class to be educated and whose practice on the English is "nigah" sufficient warning to guide our ship of state into the haven of love by Americans for America with the lion and the lamb bed-fellows? Who killed Garfield and McKinley? Whose been troublesome,freely using explosives and disturbing peaceful labor for years in this country? Hundreds of thousands have gone back to fight for their native land; is natural and will ever be so. If Pioneer Press could, it would call home every foreign missionary and put them all to work here on our own white and black heathens. "He that provideth not for his own house is worse than an infidel," so says God's word. Can earth present another class of people who have been truer to a country than the colored people have been to this and their traducers and persecutors? No! Then educate and learn to love them and this country will be safe. People who live in glass houses ought not throw stones, for no white man in America, if history be true, can boast over the recently freed Negroes, as if their forebears had eternally been free, for five hundred years ago their ancestors were slaves and wore on their necks brass collars with their master's names on them. Is it Christ like to rise from such slavery and try to crush others they have by slavery degraded? While in Grant county last year one Friday I killed a copper-snake. On my way Sunday to church a buzzard was eating the dead offensive snake. If the white man had not enslaved, brutalized, legislated against marriage, education and all kinds of decency of the colored people, the mass would not be what they are, and the wonder is they're anything but brutes,—for as such they were huddled, advertised and sold. But beasts as classed, this "nigger hating" and abusive class of whites have debauched our women to that extent that it's hard to tell who is who or which is which. If east Martin street is so filthy, what and who made it so? The white man made the whiskey, got license and sold it on east Martin st. and encouraged Negroes to flock there and drink "stone blind." Would the buzzard have come had I not killed the snake? Would the "lowest whites and blacks loafed there" if white men had not made and sold whiskey? God knows your accusations of the "low blacks' is your own condemnation. You give Martin street a bad name when in truth as good people as can be found anywhere live thereon. How many have been robbed and murdered there? But grant all they said is true, what a reflection on our police force. As we see it the dirty black thing in the woodpile is politics. The Negroes are made Smoke-hole devils for no other purpose than to hurt Mayor Turner and his Republican council. The 90 per cent signers on east Martin street against J. Frank Briscoe's restaurant is a 100 per cent false, and every decent colored person in this city should remember forever the dirty sling and Smoke-hole insult. DEATH CALLS MANY Funeral services over the remains of Mrs. Stephen Elam were held in the Dudley Baptist church Monday Oct. the 18th. Rev. W. P. Fisher her former pastor preached the funeral sermon, Rev. R.R. Thompson and Rev. Samuel Beane followed with kind and appropriate remarks. Mrs. Elam's life and death furnish another reminder that white and colored people can live together in peace and harmony; even the highest degree of affection, which is love often exists between the two races. Mrs. Elam possessed one of those gentle natures which appealed to every one with whom she came in contact.

Faithful to her God, loving and kind to her husband and always doing some neighborly service for those around her, she lived a life so queenly in its simplicity, that we all need to imitate such a fine example of true womanhood. "There remaineth therefore a rest for the people of God." Mrs. Elam has passed on to that rest. Beside the devoted husband she leaves an adopted daughter Mrs. Daisy Taylor. Our sympathy goes out to them in their sad bereavement. Mrs. Eliza A. Brown wife of Mr. Riley Brown died at her home on John St. Tuesday Oct. the 19th. about 11 P. M. Mrs. Brown had been a sufferer from a chronic ailment for a number of years; during the illness which resulted fatally, she bore her suffering with christian fortitude. She was a faithful attendant and consistent member of the Mt. Zion M. E. church until her health made it impossible for her to be active in church service. She is survived by her husband and several nieces, to whom we extend our sympathy. We regret to chronicle the death of Ida May, the beloved daughter of Mr and Mrs. Robert Harden who died Tuesday at the City Hospital. Funeral services were held in Mt. Zion M. E. church where she attended Sunday School, Rev. Sam'l Beane officiating. Interment was in Mt. Hope cemetery. The Secret of a Good Figure often lies in the brassiere.

Explosives are solids which under certain conditions suddenly change into heated gas occupying many times the original space of the solids. Ordinary gunpowder when fired turns into gas, of which the volume is 4,000 times as great as that of the powder. No wonder the bullet in front of it leaves the muzzle of the rifle in a hurry. Today there are scores, even hundreds, of different sorts of explosives known to science. Some, such as lydidite, require a very considerable shock to explode them. Others, such as nitroglycerin, are fearfully dangerous to handle, for a few extra degrees or warmth or a very slight jar is sufficient to turn them instantly into gas. Of the latter type there is nothing quite so unstable as iodide of nitrogen it has to be made in alcohol. When allowed to dry it appears as a brown powder, and so unstable is this powder that a touch with a feather will Published by AMERICAN MELODY CO., New York. set it off. The experiment has been tried of leaving a few grains upon a table mixed with a few grains of sugar. The first bluebottle that flew on the table and began to crawl among the grains caused an explosion. The mere jarring of the air by a loud shout or a heavy footstep is sufficient to detonate lolide of nitrogen, and it need hardly be added that no one in his senses would attempt to make this terrible stuff. To do so in any quantity would be equivalent to committing suicide:—Pearson's Weekly. Something Saved. "What success did you have raising chickens?" "Very little. Some escaped, thieves tole others and a large number died of a mysterious disease." "That was tough luck." "However, I beat the jinx to the last one." "How was that?"

Some That Are Guarded and Saluted by British Troops. In India a British guard of honor presents arms to a stone tiger every day. The tiger is regarded by the natives as a god who drives away all danger and calamity, and once some soldiers, in a spirit of mischief; overthrew the image from its resting place and sent it rolling into the valley below. So shocked and scandalized were the natives that a revolt seemed imminent, and Lord Combermere quieted the outraged natives by restoring the image to its pedestal and ordering the regiment to salute it in full view of all. Since that time a British troop has kept watch over the tiger idol day by day. Another Indian idol which is watched over by the British is the god whose name is Klak Klak, equivalent to "Lord of Lords," which is supposed to be asleep for 0,000 years and whose awakening will be the end of all things. Hence the natives of the city of Pegu, in Burma, are terribly afraid that some one will arouse the god, so the British government, to avert trouble, stationed a sentry there to prevent this catastrophe. Once a year a strange custom is observed in Cairo. A piece of carpet on which, according to tradition, Mahomet once sat and which is the most famous sacred relic of Islam, is carried through the streets, and the khedive and his troops all receive it in review order and salute it as they pass. The relic is guarded most carefully at ordinary times, and the officer in charge of it each morning must salute it with his sword raised, while the bugler blows three blasts before it. —Exchange. How a Coal Fire Protects itself. A curious way in which a fire in the heart of a coal pile keeps itself from being put out is noted in a mining journal. Such fires often start in the interior of large piles of coal owing to heat developed by slow oxidation, which is prevented by the size of the pile from escaping into the air. Such fires are difficult to put out owing to the fact that the burning mass turns the coal around it into coke, which is nearly impervious to water. The pile may thus be thoroughly drenched without putting out the fire, which it never really reaches. The only way to deal with the situation is to drive into the pile a sharpened iron pipe long enough to reach the burning coal and then to couple a hose to the upper end and turn on the water.

At times, I would have severe pains in my left side. The doctor was called in, and his treatment relieved me for a while, but I was soon confined to my bed again.
