WAR DOGS CALLED OFF! Through Envoys at Portsmouth Russia and Japan Finally Reach Agreement and Peace Now Reigns. VOL. XX. WAR DOGS Through Envoys at and Japan Finally and Peace MIKADO IS MAGNANIMOUS While Waiving Disputed Points Japan Wins Every Contention for Which War Was Waged. A Portsmouth special says: The long and bloody war between Japan and Russia is ended. The terms of peace were settled by Mr. Witte and Baron Komura at the session of the Tuesday afternoon conference, and preliminary arrangements for an armistice were concluded and the actual work of framing the "treaty of Portsmouth" was by mutual agreement turned over to Mr. de Martens, Russia's great international lawyer, and Mr. Dennison, who for 25 years has acted as the legal adviser of the Japanese foreign office. The treaty is expected to be completed by the end of the week. This happy conclusion of the conference, which a week ago would have been shipwrecked had it not been for the heroic intercession of President Ioscoevelt, was sudden and dramatic. For the sake of peace Japan with the magnanimity of a victor as the last moment yielded everything still in issue. Russia refused to burge from the ultimatum Emperor Nicholas had given to President Roosevelt through Ambassidor Meyer. By the terms of the peace treaty now being drafted Japan wins everything for which she went to war. Japan receded only as to indemnity, the Interned warships and the limitation of Russia's naval power in the far east. Japan gains Korea, Port Arthur and the Liao-Tung peninsula, drives Russia out of Manchuria, gains half of Sakhalin, takes over railroads built by Russia in Manchuria and will be liberally paid for maintenance of Russian prisoners. Russia saves payment of indemnity, interned warships and limitation of her sea power in Oriental waters. Cause of the War. 1. Russia's policy of playing fast and loose with her promises as to the evacuation of Manchuria, whereby China's sovereignty over that land was practically annulled and the equal commercial rights therein of the rest of the world seriously threatened. 2. Russia's refusal to recogulze Japan's paramount interests in Korea and her own "diplomatic" moves in that peninsula, looking toward treaty rights, under which she might gain control of the port of Fusan—the more northern harbors of Vladivostok and Port Arthur having proved less serviceable than had been anticipated. 3. Japan's 7-year-old grudge against Russia for custing her from Port Arthur at the close of her contest with China and (also) Russia's fatal ignorance of Japan's preparedness and her over-confidence in her own strength. The duration of the struggle was from February 5, 1904, to June 11, 1905—493 days. Note: June 11 is the date on which Russia and Japan agreed to meet to consider peace. There has been no armistice since MORE FEVER CASES FOUND. Authorities at New Orleans Unearth New Fool Near City. The most important development of the yellow fever situation in New Orleans Tuesday was the report of Dr. C. Milo Brady, who had been sent by the state, board of health on a tour of inspection of the bayous and lakes in Jefferson parish, where there are many settlements of fishermen in constant communication with New Orleans. Without completing their investigation they turned up 35 cases of yellow fever, learned that deaths had occurred and found much suffering. June 11, but there has been no fight ing. The Final Result. 1. Japan has re-acquired control of Korea, establishing a protectorate, and appointing an American, Durham White Stevens, as advisor to the emperor, Yi Heul. 2. Japan has regained possession of Port Arthur and the Liao-Kung peninsula and has forced the return of Manchuria to China with "open door" for the trade of the world. Japan also acquires the northern half of Sakhalin Island. 3. International law has gained a clearer knowledge than has before been had of what constitutes "contraband of war" and to what lengths a naval officer may properly go in the "right of search." Both of these advances were made largely through the prompt diplomacy of the late Secretary of State Hay. 4. Russia certainly will not get on the Pacific coast the "ice free port" for which she has so long been looking. President Roosevelt Joyous. A special from Oyster Bay says: In his library at Sagamore Hill, President Roosevelt, shortly before one o'clock Tuesday afternoon, received the announcement that the Russian and Japanese plenipotentiaries at Portsmouth had roached an agreement and would proceed at once to conclude the terms of a treaty of peace. The joyful tiding soon spread through the Roosevelt household. The president did not conceal his gratification at the successful issue of the peace conference, the initiative of which had come from him, and his feeling of satisfaction at the outcome permeated the entire entourage of Sagamore Hill. It was a joyful family party that assembled a few minutes afterwards around the hospitable board of President Roosevelt. Official confirmation of the historic tidings reached the president at 2:20 o'clock in a cipher dispatch from Portsmouth. By authority and at the request of Baron Komura, the chief envoy of Japan, the dispatch stated: "The plenipotentiaries of Japan have withdrawn their claim for reimbursement of war expenses, and an agreement has been reached as to the partition of the Island of Sakhalin. All main points have been definitely settled. The plenipotentiaries will now proceed with discussion of details." Japs Are Satisfied. Although the Japanese envoys will not talk for publication, their line of reasoning is known to be as follows: "The Russians may indulge in boastings now. They may call it a diplomatic victory but we are confident that upon calm consideration the world will applaud our course. To yield upon the question of our demand for the expenses of the war was the only road to peace. We had attained the objects of the war; we had established our predominant position in Korea, we had obtained the lease to Port Arthur and the adjacent territory; we had obtained the Chinese Eastern railroad and the evacuation of Manchuria. We had even obtained important fishing rights along the Russian littoral. These covered the objects which we have kept steadily in view for nineteen months of bloody war. These objects insured the resumption of the great works of peace we had planned." PETERS DEFIES JORDAN. Vice President of (Cotton, Association Refuses to Be Suspended. Colonel E. S. Peters, vice president of the Southern Cotton Association, has just returned to Texas from an extended sojourn in the east. He found a letter from President Jordan, which contains, what Peters says is the first formal notice that he had been "suspended." In his answer to Jordan, he says: "As I wired on receipt of your telegram I will not resign the office of vice president, and you have no authority to suspend." SAVANNAH. GA.. SATURDAY. SEPTEMBER 2. 1905 FEVER IN NATCHEZ Dreed Scourge - Breaks Out in Mississippi Town. CONSTERNATIONPREVAILS Twenty Cases Reported by Health Authorities and People Hasten to Leave—Report of Conditions In New Orleans Sunday. Physicians of the Natcher, Miss., board of health at noon Sunday examined and pronounced as yellow fever, two patients, a white woman and a negro man. Examining further, five negroes convalescent from yellow fever were found in the northeast end of town together with seventeen suspicious cases of sickness, thirteen of which are, undoubtedly yellow fever. The infection is traced to a negro woman who came from New Orleans on July 19. Lake Providence, La., reports five new cases, making a total of fifteen. Sunday night at Jackson it was reported to the state board of health by the local health authorities at Natchez that there were twelve cases of yellow fever in that city, all of the victims being negroes except one, a white woman, Mrs. Einstein, the wife of a white peddler. It is not stated where the disease came from, but it is believed that it was catried over from Louisiana by negroes. According to reports received in Jackson a good many people are leaving Natchez. Sunday's record in New Orleans showed the smallest number of new cases since August 6, and the largest number of deaths, thirteen, on any day since the fever made its appearance. The unusual number of deaths is attributed in a measure to the change in the weather, Saturday night being cool and pleasant, in great contrast to the weather of the preceding week. The principal news from outside the city was the announcement from Natchez of the discovery of six cases here, and the attempt to blame New Orleans for them. This is regarded as rather strange in view of the fact that of all the tight quarantines against New Orleans, Natchez has maintained the tightest, not even allowing its own people to enter if they had been near ew Orleans. The official report in New Orleans for Sunday was as follows: New cases 31, total to date 1,743, deathe Sunday 13, total deaths to date 257, remaining under treatment 199. Quite a controversy has developed between City Health Officer Kohnke and Dr. Joseph Holt, at one time the president of the state board of health. Dr. Holt, in the course of an address before a meeting, passed some severe strictures on the city health officer, who, when he read the report of the address in the morning papers, wrote him, asking if he had been correctly quoted. Dr. Holt made a rather warm repiy, in the course of which he said: "You are evidently trying a bluff game, but whether so or not, you can pop your whip and wade in, for I make to you neither apology nor explanation." To this Dr. Kohne made response, in which he told his politely that he should have ascertained the correctness of his impressions, before giving them public utterance. MURDERER YIELDS TO REMORSE. Zarbel Gives Himself Up to Ease His Conscience. Carl Zarbel, a farm hand of Camden, N. J., surrendered himself to Wilson T. Jones, sheriff of Gloucester county, and asked to be hanged. Zarbel said he had killed a man in Virginia last January. The Virginia uthorities were notified by wire and information was received that Zarbel's story was true and that a reward had been offered for his capture. He appeared to be melancholy and finally he told his employer that he was a murderer. His conscience gave him no rest and he was impelled to give himself up. Husband and Wife Separated by 1,000 Miles Expire. Simultaneously. Separated by 1,000 miles distance, Mrs. June Johnson and her husband, Allan Johnson, a Little Rock, Ark, banker, met death almost simultaneously Monday. At the precise hour when Mrs. Johnson's body was taken from the bathing waters of Coney Island a telegram reached New York of the death of hen husband. The wife was a magazine contributor, and the husband was president of the National Exchange Bank of Little Rock. TO OCEAN BOTTOM Steamer Peconic Goes Down Off the Florida Coast. TWENTY SAILORS DROWN Only Two of the Crew Escaped Watery Grave to Tell the Story—Vessel Was Bound to New Orleans With a Cargo of Coal on Board. Twenty men constituting all but two of the officers and crew of the American steamship Peconic, bound from Philadelphia to New Orleans with coal, were drowned by the sinking of the vessel off the coast of Florida. Monday. The disaster was the result of a fierce gale which raged along the coast during the night and early morning. Lashed by the storm, an immense wave struck the vessel with terrific force about 12:30 o'clock a.m. The impact coming just as the vessel was making a turn, caused a shift of the cargo and the vessel careened and sank immediately. The accident occurred so quickly that only two of those aboard her, an Italian and a Spaniard, were able to save themselves. They succeeded in getting into a life boat, reached Amelia beach about noon Monday: and, landing, told the story of the disaster. About midnight of Sunday, during the heaviest part of the storm which had raged all day, the officer of the deck gave the order to put further cut to sea, fearing they were approaching the coast too nearly. In the endeavor to turn the ship was struck by a heavy sea, the cargo shifted, giving a broadside and she began sinking rapidly. In less than ten minutes after the alarm was sounded she had gone to the bottom and no trace of her was left upon the waters. The account of their own miraculous escape out of all of the ship's crew who went down was something approaching the marvelous. One of these men was at the wheel at the time the order was given, the other was upon watch. As soon as the ship began to careen these two men rushed for one of the small boats, which they jumped into as the vessel began to go down. With their knives they severed the ropes as the water's level was reached, and the small boat was thrown far out on the waves. The men whose names are, respectively, Bagellini Humbertli and Antonio Clark, were unable to speak out of their native tongues, and it was some time before the facts of the disaster were thoroughly ascertained. They have testified to the correctness of the above report before a notary public, and the people of Fernandina kindly cared for their wants. At the time of the disaster the ship was about 20 miles northeast of Fernandina, heading south, and in the teeth of the gale. The small boat was thrown here and there until finally control was gained through handling the oars, enabling the two unfortunate survivors to pull ashore at last. The vessel had been engaged in the fruit-trade from Central America to New Orleans, but on account of the quarantine regulations prohibiting the import of bananas she had been engaged for two voyages to carry coal from Philadelphia to New Orleans. She was a ship of 1,154 register and had on board about 1,500 tons of coal. She arrived at Philadelphia August 14, and cleared for New Orleans August 19. The Peconic was built at Liverpool, England, in 1881. She was 270 feet long, 34 feet 6 inches beam and 22 feet 8 inches deep. She formerly sailed under the British flag and ran on the Phelps Brothers & Co.'s line between New York and Mediterranean ports. D. H E. Jones of the firm of J. W| Elwell & Co., New York, is her present owner. REPORT IS DENIED BY CRUM. Colored Collector Did Not Try to Hire Wheel Chate at Ashbury Park. A Boston dispatch says: Dr. William D. Crum, the collector of customs at Charleston, S. C., a colored man, who is visiting in this city, takes occasion to deny that he had been refused the services of a white wheel chair attendant at Asbury Park, N. J., as has been stated. Crum added that although he was visiting Asbury Park with his invalid wife, he did not try to hire a wheel chair nor did the proprietor of the boardwalk chair stands decline to order any of his white hands to push a chair for his wife. FEVER IN VICKSBURG, Two Cases of Mild Type Reported by Health Authorities—Appearance of Disease in Pensacola Confirmed: Dr. John Guiteras of the public health and marine hospital service Wednesday afternoon reported two positive orses of yellow fever in Vicksburg, Miss. The sickness is of a very mild type. Local physicians first diagnosed the disease as yellow fever, the announcement creating somewhat of a panic. The origin of the fever has not yet been fixed. Both patients are white and neither has been out of town for months. After six o'clock Wednesday evening, one new case of yellow fever, which was reported convalescent, was discovered in Natchez. Otherwise, there has been no change in the local yellow fever situation. Dr. W. H. Alkman, county health officer, is in charge and had reported that there were no new cases nor any suspicious cases. Dr. Goldsberger, of the marine hospital service, viewed the patients and concurred in the diagnosis made by the local physicians and Dr. Wasdin in every particular. At noon he addressed the physicians and said the fever could be stamped out. Mayor Brook issued a proclamation calling on the citizens to fight the mosquito. The work of fumigation is being carried on in every home. New Case at Pensacola. One case of yellow fever developed in Pensacola, Fla., Wednesday. It was in the infected district, the patient being a tallor, who had quarters adjoining the building in which the first case was discovered. The case was found Wednesday afternoon and was pronounced by physicians to be yellow fever. All of the patients are doing well, and the fever seems to be a very mild form. The citizens do not seem to be panic-stricken as in former years, though a through train, which left at noon, carried perhaps one hundred persons away. There were many also to take boats, and go far up the bay in camp. Dr. Guiteras, the famous Cuban yellow fever expert, arrived from New Orleans, and was soon in consultation with Dr. Porter and the state health authorities. The fever report for New Orleans Wednesday was as follows: New cases 46, total to date 1,878, deaths Wednesday 4, total deaths to date 271. Among the list of stricken Wednesday are two physicians, making four in all who have succumbed. The latest victims are Dr. J. T. Wolfe, who lives below Canal street, and has had a large practice among the yellow-fever patients in that quarter, and Dr. Lamaraux, health officer of St. Bernard parish. Both were undoubtedly infected by stegomyia while moving among their patients. State of Georgia Will Enter Suit Appeal Cause of Torture Against State of Tennessee. The special commission appointed under resolution of the Georgia general assembly, at its recent session, to investigate the destruction of vegetation in Fannin, and other north Georgia counties, as a result of the fumes from the copper and sulphur smelting works at Ducktown, Tenn., returned to Atlanta: Wednesday and report was made to the governor. The commission reports conditions in the affected section as most deplorable, says the destruction is becoming more wisped than ever, and thirwith the destruction of the forests, the north Georgia streams will dry up and be subject to freshets and floods. The report concludes with the recommendation that immediate legal steps be taken to abate the nuisance, as it is stated it will be better to wipe out the entire industry than to permit the destruction of all the vegetation in half a dozen counties. Georgia Commission Will Endeavor to Force Obedience to Orders. Suits for the penalty of $1,000 to $5,000 provided by law in cases where railroads refuse to obey the orders of the Georgia railroad commission, were filed in Fulton superior court at Atlanta Thursday morning, against five of the railroads entering Atlanta, because of their refusal to obey stoves tendered by the Atlanta Stove Works, under the rule made in circular 309. The commission decided not to give the railroads their days notice. cided not to give days notice.

The French republic rejoices in the role that her sister America has played in this historic event. EMILE LOUBET." The president has acknowledged the messages received from King Edward, Emperor William and President Loubet, but, the text, of his responses is not made public.

To begin with this, isa very vital subject and one that should be seriously consid- ered because it is damaging to our race and a*building uP. of another. The very first thing that should come under our consideration is—That it takes from our poor people money they are not able to spend for pleasure and many are involved in a debt which causes them to loose that which they had saved and some are made to steal to take in these excursions. It also Jeads to poverty because what we had saved up we use it for one day on these excursions and itis possible that we will never recover that which we had saved, hénce it leaves us ip a poverty strickened condition, and no poverty strickened race canever amount tomuch. “To be weak is miserable’ and ‘‘to be poor is weak.” Itrust every reader will carefully consider this matter as you go over it and reason it out for yourselves and see whether or not this is true. Second. It affects the moral status of our young men and women. You may ask, how? Well Ishall prcceed to give you some facts: To begin with I will say first there are numbers of our a men and women who would like to do things that they would not do at home, hence they take this chance to dothem. I will not ay what things they are but “A hint to the wise is sufficient.” And another thing is, some who go on these éxcursions, go armed and. get fall of cheap whiskey, and just because they have one of these litte cheap Pistols in their Rocket they meddle every- one who come in their way and those that do not, in order to raise a fuss to do some injury or take some one’s life.—Scarcely an excursion run by our people but what some one is cut or shot almost to death, Some who read this may not like it because they are in favor of excursions, but my friends it is high, yes very high time we were begin- ning to see these and deyise some methods by which we could stop Sar penne, especial- ly you who call yourselves lead- ing and light holders, why don’t you try to ehlighten our people along this line? No, you have not that moral courage to do so. by reason of the fact you are afraid you won’t get all you want.—Why don’t you quit yourselves like men and fight these evils to a bitter end and fight'theni from a christian prin- ciple and ask God to help you and he will take care of you as he has promised. And this,evil is not only practloed. by these weak kneed Jeaders but anigug our proficient leaders, and hers) is the thing they dodge baking: For the benefii ‘What ‘ai for our ereat and’ “ssbefore excursions were ever thoughtof, God had a plan laid, by which, his church could suryive and he is the “‘samé God to-day, yester- day and forever and lie ‘changes nog.’ Did you éver read or ever heard:of God's church failing to carry out its obligations ? ‘nd you never, will. Let me ask Which would you rather. To havea small church out of debt, or to run excursions at the risk of the good name ofthe race and having somé one cut or shot to death ? Hardly an excursion ran by our people but that some one is cut or shot to death or some good friends made to fall out for !Jife. Now rere up’ on thes bind joes and dispute it. I now I will be criticised, for the stand I take but there never was a good thing started but what someone had to suffer forit. Suf fering by our Saviour’ brought redemption to all men, and Lam willing to suffer to let the people see this thing. Third and last It tends to destrey. our civilization among the other race by the way we condtct ourselves onethese ex- cursions, we carry on, worse than heathens to an extent. Now let me give you some facts ‘that can’t be denied. The men do not respect their women and some of the women do not re- spect themselves : the men curs- ing and drinking and using all manner of bad languages before their women and many other things I could name but as I said above, a hint to the wise is suificient. Now let me appeal to every good thinking man and woman in ourrace to raise your voice in helping to stamp out excursions as it is making us poorer and the other race richer “What's good for tha goose is good for the gander.” You buy the boat or the train yor. go on, and then some time be sent to the chain gang and somebody’s soul is sent to hell, All on ac- count of excursions. Good peo- ple, Good people stop and egin to think. Can’t we use our money to a more advantage than buying thése shite folks boats and trains. Save your money and help to build up these orphan homes and save these little boys and girls who are, going to destruction every day. Now wont you wake ap aud shake off these evils an stop wasting your money. Some one might say “Its my money I earned it and I do as T please with it. Yes you earned it and that little you did earn will get you into more trouble than you can ever get out. 7 Now inmy conclusion let me appeal to‘those true hearted christian men and women to take this matter to God in prayer because it is raining our people. Now to the preachers, ye fathers and messengers of God look around vonieeves and see if you haye done your duty along this line. And if you have not you ask God to help you to fight this great evil toa bitter end. Lam not making an attack on any one but simply trying to get you to see how much we are being damaged by these excur- sions. [hopesome one will see and be benefitted by this article.

October 1, Negro Business, J. W, Armstrong. We are pleased to insert Mr. Grnat’s address to the Sunday Olob on Angust 20th : LE NEGRO AS A POLITICAL FACTOR. S All persons bora or naturalized ia ‘the United States andfsubject to the jurisdic- tion thereof are ‘citizens of the United States and of the state wherein they re- side, No state shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the Unities States, nor shall any state‘deprive any person of life, liberty or property without; the pro-, cess of law, nor deny to any person within i aidicten the equal protection of the We: a'The rigiof the citirensJof the United’ States! tole shall not ‘be denied or States. toc na tate of account of race, color or previous condition of servitude. So read the rth and 15th amendments to the Constitution of the United Statés., , AOn addressing myS2U to_ 1h considera- tion of the ‘subject, “The Negro as a politi- cal Factor," I come at once toa ne of the ¥i- tal principles underlying American citizen- ship and the citizenship of tlre colored man. Itis necessary, therefore, id the beginning to refresh your mlads with those facto Jeyislation4which brought about his citizen. ‘ship and the power resulting therefrom. I realize keenly the importance of the sub- ject and the tride diversion of public opin. on thereon, still, Tadd that what may be said, will not be said as a compromise, but asa firm conviction born of existing con: ditions. e When I speak of the Negro as a politi cal factor, I'do not mean his mingling fate Politics from a purely pecuniary or renum- erative standpoint, but I mean his inter esting himself in the “affairs of state” in order to insure his protection aad to se- cure his rights as laid dowa in these amendments which we may for the present term his ‘declaration of independence.” It may be admitted here, that the Negro for some time has not wellded any force in American politics. He has not been a factor in the polities of his country either from a selfish or patriotic standpoint. Still there is a reason for this somewhat dormant condition of the Negro in politics. We are all cognizant of the fact. that the present Republican party gained its Srst victory on the inheritent weakness of the Democratic party on the question of Hu- man Rights and the right of the Federal government to protect itsclf from the as- sumption, the aggresslen, the attempted usurpation of the states, Naturally’ the American Negro, believing that in the Republican party he had found the tardy champions of his long taken rights, ideati fied himself as a whole with this party. Since bis emancipation (Negro), he has lined himself as a silent adherent to this party, the supposed party of his second birth, “He bas forgotten entirely the fact that what was done by the Republican par- ty was done as duty for earlier wrongs in- fileted upon him for 240 years, and not as charity. Yet the Republican party should be given credit for being the first party to realize its duty to its black citizens, The Negro since ther ratification of the r5th amendment in 1870 has fully reciprocated this apparent kindness. So adherent have we been to the Republican principle till it has hardly been necessary for the party to cater for our-votes. There has been no cavilling io our ranks concerning the work- ings of the party. Allow me to assert right here that Ido not refer to the Re- publican party from a biased standpoint, but I take them as the supposedly least of of the great political disregards‘ to our political rights and preferences. We have been mere parasites to this party, human automatons, imitatiog them, but’ not de- manding any rights from them. ‘Thus the supply in this case bas been equal to the demand. The Republican party no less than the others in this latter day has changed. It has together with the other parties degenerated into an ignoble scrain- ble for place and power, forgetting in the largest degree its loyal supporter, the Ne- gro race. It;has forgotten the priaciples for which Sumner contended and for which Lincoln died, It has betrayed the cause for which Douglass, Garrison and others labored. It has made slaves free- and freemen slaves in same breath by coa- ferring the franchise and withholding the guarantees to insure its exescise, Te ap- pears even now pawerless to iasure an honest expression of the voze of the <ol- ored citizens, For these reasons and oth- ers, it is plain that the Negro plays no im- portant patt ial he politicafof the couotey as long as he remalas staunch to a party which does not attempt to gain for him any of his rights or to insist upon their pro- tection. If wevare to stay with this party it is high time for us to make demands for services rendered. It is high time for us to cease to be the missionaries in politics, What more outward show of friendship bas been shown than in she plank of the Republican party of 1904 on Negro dis- franchisement. It reads “We favor such congressional actions as shall determiac wither by special discrimination the elective franchisqin any state has been un- constitutionally limited, and if such is she case, we demand that- representation in Congress and Io the Efectorial College, shall be proportionally reduced as directed by the Constitution of the United States.” ‘While the party has made some attempt to carry out all the planks in her platform, it has made considerably little attempt to act.upon this plank. This leads me to be- Tieve that af least the party bas awakened tothe fact that the Negroes vote count for much, tbat he holds the balancing pow- ers in national politics ; thus the party deems jt necessary to gain or retain the Negro vote even if it has to resort to cun- ning legislation in its platform, ‘The hour has arrived when thoughtful men sbould ceasb to put their faith upon broken straws; when they should cease to be the tools of treacherous and corrupt parties; whenthey should cease to sup- port men and measures which do not ben- efit them or their race ; when they should case to be duped by one party and shot at by another. The time has fully arrived when they should have their positions in parties. more fully defined, and when, by the ballot which they hold, they should force more respect for the rights of life and property, To do this they must _ad- just themselves to the altered conditions which surround them. They must make for themselves a place to stand. In the politics of the country the colored vote Alexander’s Magazine. Every reader ofthis paper should have a copy of Alexander's Magazine for August.

We were glad to have the Friendly Sisters Social club, numbering 83, with us. Quite a number of them expressed themselves as pleased with the sermon that was delivered to them. Saints and saints said they "didn't know Griffin could preach so." Then after the services the Friendly Sisters Social club played a noble part financially. The preacher entertained them on the subject, "Faith, Hope and Charity." He showed that out of the three Charity was the greatest.

(C onlined from opposite page.)^* ment which will stimulate our political beneficaries to an enforcement of the 14th and 15th amendments. Our attitude in national politics should be our attitude in state and municipal politics. Whenever we are debarred by unjust disranching laws or by white, primaries, we should urge our people to effort themselves to measure up to these laws, and to organize our own primaries, if it be necessary. If we are, not dead, let us show life, whether we meet success or not. I do not mean to say that the colored voter should assume a hostile position to his neighbor. I realize the fact that the colored voter, especially of the South, must by a wise policy hasten the day when politics shall cease to be the shibboleth that creates perpetual warfare. The citizen of a state is far more sovereign than the citizen of the United States. The state is a real tangible reality; a thing of life and power; the United States is purely an abstraction. So with the city and town. They are even more tangible than the state. While I therefore urge interest in national affairs, I would in the same breath urge greater interest in state and municipal affairs. Let every one read, listen, think, reform his own ideas of affairs in his own locality. Let him make friends of his neighbors white and black and vote for the men and the party that will do the best for him, his race and best conserve the interest of his vicinity. Let there be no aim of solidifying the colored vote unless for our ultimate good. To show the importance of individual action, I quote a few figures from the tax digest just completed. "There are 753 registered Negro voters in Chatham County in comparison with 6783 whites. The ratio of Negro population to Negroes of voting age is 4.3 per cent. At this ratio there should be at least between 7000 and 8000 Negro registered voters in Chatham County when at this time, there are only 753, about one-tenth of the possible number. It may be readily seen that we cannot prove a factor in politics whether local or remote, until we have our full voting strength ready for the fray. Wherever there is an educational qualification we should measure up to it; wherever there is a property qualification we should strive to come within the limit of the prescription and wherever there is no qualification save that of age and citizenship, we should surely not be derelict in making our personal returns, thus qualifying ourselves. In conclusion I would say that "the colored man must rise to a full conception of his citizenship before he can make his citizenship effective. As has been said, "Ignorance, superstition, prejudice and intolerance are elements in our nature born of the malign institution of slavery. As they wave the slow growth, the gradual development of long years of inhuman conditions so they must be eliminated by the slow growth of years of favorable conditions. Let us recognize these as facts and labor honestly, to supplant them with more wholesome, more cheering realities. As American citizens let us feel it born in our nature to share in fullest measure all that is American. Let us sympathize in all the hopes, aspirations and frutitions of our Country. Let there be no pulsation in the animate frame of our native land which does not thrill our nature. Let there be no height of glory we may reach as a government in which we should not feel ourselves individually lifted, and no depth of degradation, to which we may fall to which we should not feel ourselves individually dragged. In a word we are American citizens. We have a heritage in each and every provision incorporated in the Constitution of our Country and should this heritage be attempted to be filched from us by any man or body of men, we should deem the provocation sufficiently grievous to stake even life in defence of it. This should be the spirit should permeate the body of every colored American citizen. To aid in lifting our people to this standard should be our mission. Let us mention the idea that the preservation of our liberties, the consumption of our citizenship must be conserved and matured, not by standing alone and apart, sullen as the melancholy Dane but by imbibing all that is American, entering into the life and spirit of our institutions, spreading abroad in sentiment feeling the full force of the fact that while we are classed as Africans just as the Germans are classed as Germans, we are in all things American citizens, American freemen with rights which the other fellow is bound to respect Church Anniversary. The 13th anniversary of the Nicholsonboro Baptist church will take place on Sunday September 10, 1905 at Nicholsonboro, White Bluff. All the churches and the public generally are cordially invited. The program will appear in our next issue. Proper arrangements have been made for the conveyance of the persons who will attend, at Royall's undertaking establishment under the direction of Mr. R. W. Spaulding. Persons desiring to go will please inform him one day before time so that he can arrange for the conveyances of the persons without any hitch. There will be special mention made of the late Capt. Samuel Spaulding and Major W. H. Royall. There will be some befitting remarks made by Col. J. H. Deveaux who was a friend and companion of each. Services will convene at 10 o'clock. The clergy of the city will be expected to take their usual part in the services. The Colonel's Waterlee, Colonel John M. M. Fuller, of Honey Grove, Texas, nearly met his Waterloo from Liver and Kidney trouble. In a recent letter, he said: "I was nearly dead of these complaints, and, although I tried my family doctor, he did me no good; so I got a 500 bottle of your, great Electric Bitters, which cured me.

A “companion” sounds as if it aust be something delightful. ‘The “young woman starting ont in the work- cing world of’ large city ike New York without capital, experience or talents, has often a shrinking from the Dusiness world and longs to hide her- self in some quiet cultured home, where she may make herself useful and agreeable, and also earn sufticiertt Pay, to dress herself suitably, and per- ebance amass a modest bank account. ¢ ‘What simpler, then. than to be com- ‘Qauion to a detighttul old lady, who Is ‘rich but lonely, to whom a bright pres- ence Will give hourly pleasure, and for awhom it will be equal happiness to Derform the services of a daughter? Or, perhaps, the young woman Is fond of children and hopes to be mentor and friend to a growing gitl whom she may assist to form good tastes in lit- erature, art and music. She sees herself In the fnture acconi- panying a sweet young girl to concerts, .to lectures, and later on to “parties” in the light of a chaperone. And doubtless there are such positions in the world, but they are not as’a rute Jong vacant in New York, nor are they ailled through newspaper advertise- ments or agencies. Indeed, the exper- Jence of several young women in this city has not been particularly eucour- aging to those desirous of seeking a living Jo this calling, although spime- times the outward appearance of their situations 1s entirely satisfactory. ‘Stil, when so much of the companion's comfort depends on tlie personality of her employers, the success of-tuch 2 position is necessarily difficult to guar- antee. A well-known employment agent was asked what her experience had been In supplying womep for the position of companion, She shook her head du- biously. : “Not one in fifty turns out satisfac- torils, so that I have given up trying to supply anything but teachers and secretaries.

Anyway, if you can't get on with your own flesh and blood, I don't sée how you can expect strang- ers to agree with you, and that's true of both employer and employe in this capacity.” One young girl who had spent her Ufe,su 2 small town came to New York witli the {dea of seeing something of the orld, She answered an adver- ‘Usement in a reliable paper, and soon yas employed as companion to ait eld- erly lady, who was about to go abroad. What delightful visions filled the girl's head, of sightseeing, of voyaging, of little exenrsions in the wonderfuFcoun- tries of Europe! The lady was a widow, handsome, well dressed and, although the salary offered was only S15 a month, the applicant was t cages forthe experience and tnvel fo hesitate at that. Her duties were to he light. .Slie was to be more like 2 fried and accompany her employer everywhere. “I will give you some clotlies, my dear,” said the Indy, touching the young woman's simple tweed gown with politely, scornful fingers, “and, of course, I shill take a maid.” Bs ¢ _ DISENCHANTMENT. In six months thes returned from their travels, having visited France, Italy, Switzerland and, most. briefly, England. ‘The companfon could hard- ly walt to land, so eager was she to leave her position, and \she testified willingly to the drawbacks of such work® ‘Her “lads” had proved herself selfish, vain, Jealous and’ {ll-tempered, put, wokse than any of these miserable petty fayilts, was the faiting of drink, which tike fanocent young woman had at Inst discovered after many embar- rassing happeniogs. > “But \ald-yon not enjoy, yourself at II?” the gbrl was asked. indeed id, for a daytor two at a («chins al tle eer As CFP ich seers) Then she was, always taking ilttle ‘nips,’ as she called them, and fiying into 2 violent temper for nothing af- terwards, but I never guessed that she took tod mich until the ship's doctor told me on the voyage home. She Wouldn't stay more than a_week in England because some friends of mine were going to be there, and shethought I might have too ood a time for 2 companion! No more such positions tor me!” An older gitl with, perhaps, less pa- tleneé, took 2 post as companion and chaperone to 2 girl of fourteen (rrhose father was mnch engaged in business and whose mother had dled when she Was very young), The young’ woman found the girl, charming and sweet, the father ‘considerate and polite, the house was handsome and her quarters were all that could be desired. But she was not happy, and could not en- dure if for more than a thonth, owing to the obnoxious presence of a privil- eged Irish servant, who had held un- divided sway ‘over the household for ten years, and was not ready to give in to the newcomer. Several battles had taken place between them, which had reduced the ghild to tears, finally arled on Bridget's shoulder, while the companion retired discomfited. ‘Too spleited to put up.-with atetation/from such a sonrce, and conscious that'Brid- get was more Indispensable, tote fatally happiness than herself, the yonng woman gave up $10 2 morth and a comfortable home, and tried again. After a succession of harrow- ing trials as companion to nervous and physieal wrecks from drink and va- rlous diseases she gave up her tdea and went Into one of the prominent hospital tratning schéols as the caster lfe of the two. ‘ Another young woman became com- panion and mother's help in a large family of children in a-Jersey suburb. She loved the children, made them lore her, and was very happy with them, but the Inek of freedom and the {eolation told upon her, and at the end of a year she was glad to take up her neglected knowledge of stenography, which would give her time and oppor tunity to see her friends, with some Prospect of, advance tn the future— which her other position did not pos- sess. “What did you do in that family? Did you teach the children?” she was asked. - “No, except one hour in the morn- Ing. ‘The, eldest one went to school, the baby was absolved from study, and the middle three had a governess for seven months, From May to Sep- tember I gave them all an hour's Ger- man in the morning, and the rest of the time I helped their mother to keep thelr clcthes In grder and to do the housework. ‘They were awfully good to me, ald I loved every ove in the house, and cried heartily to leave them, but I didn’t feel that I was do- Ing for them that a superior nurse- mald or chambermald could not have ague, and T wanted a change.” ‘There are other examples of exper- Jence iu this situation that ome to mind, One girl Is very happy, and contented as eompanton toran old Iady, Her chief dates are to drive datiy with her employer, to hetp her keep house, to arranga the flowery to play chess and backgammon every even- ing, to read alond, and do Ifttle odds and ends of mending thatt are not worth seuding to a dressmfker.
