Seattle Republican

State Library THE SEATTLE REPUBLICAN has maintained during the summer seven playgrounds, eleven ball fields and a summdr camp. The municipal playgrounds have been open at night for the first time. Pittsburg has adopted a playgroued plan calling for thirteen new recreation centers. Baltimore formed an atheletic league with the prospect of ample funds to establish recreation facilities. In Philadelphia $20,000 was raised on Tag Day to equip four new playgrounds. In Washington the appropriation for play grounds was lost in Congress. In syite of lack of proper funds, the attendance at exisuing playgrounds increased fifty per cent this year. Cleveland, Milwaukee, Chicago, San Francisco and many small cities have increased appropriations for fresh air centers for children. The movement has taken a stronghold in Canada—in Montreal, Quebec, Ottawa, Toronto and Hamilton. Professor Hetherington and Professor Melendy have organized a movement for playgrounds in thirty-one cities in Missouri. In Massachusetts a law has been passed requiring every city of over ten thousand inhabitants to vote as to whether the city will maintain playgrounds. The Outlook. North and in many places was actually forbidden the right of being staged. There is no doubt but that the play, just like Tillman, encourages, yea, even produces colorphobia in its most violent form and should not be put on exhibition in any civilized country, but a great majority of the dominant class of this country either want to see it or have no objections of any one else seeing it if he or she so desire, and therefore, for the Afro-Americans to continue to protest against it appearing in any city where a great majority of the citizens therein seem to want it, seems foolhardy. It is purely a case of kicking against the pricks, and the more that you protest the greater the amount of free advertising it is given and greater the number of persons that actually want to see it. The appearance of Ben Tillman in Chicago to lecture for the benefit of a charity organization almost caused a race riot, but he spoke just the same, and not only spoke in Chicago, but has spoken all over the country, and for no other reason than on account of the Chicago trouble, which made something of a martyr and hero of him. So far as the black man of this country is concerned, the white man, being overwhelmingly in the majority, is going to do those things which his fancy leads him to, and that too, in spite of any protest of the black man. The Clansman, Ben Tillman and all such will not to any great extent lead the cool headed Yankee very far from his fixed purpose of life, and it is not believed that after the vulgar play has shown on the coast and gone the way of the world, that the black man will be able to discern the white man showing any more disposition to not give him a square deal than before there was ever any talk of either Dixon or The Clansman. George B. McCllelan, mayor of Greater New York in pleading for a non partisan view of public officials says the following: "Less than four years ago the people of this country elected as their chief magistrate an honest and conscientious man. They knew what he was and what he represented. They knew his ideals, his hopes, his purposes, and had they stopped to think about the matter at all they would have known what to expect from his election. Now that the inevitable has occurred, instead of accepting it, those who a few months ago were loudest in his praise are the most vituperative in their denunciation. It is not so long since that those who disagreed with him ran the risk of being charged with leze majesty by the very newspapers that now even question his honesty of purpose. When you believe that your party is doing right stand by it. When you believe that a public official is doing his duty stand up for him. It is only human for you to think that were you in his place you could do better than he is doing. But the chances are altogether that you could not, and besides, you have no idea under what difficulties he may be laboring. Don't pull down; build up. Don't anathematize the policies of government unless you have something better to suggest in their place. Don't senselessly oppose the party in power for doing what you would very likely do yourself had you the chance. Don't cry out against your successful opponent for stealing your thunder when he is probably applying it better than you could. Price One Year, $3.00. Single Copies, 10 Cents. William Randolph Hearst may be a demigoguge according to the new version of that term, but one thing is certain he has caught Senator Joseph Benson Foraker where the hair is short in his exposure of him in connection with the Standard Oil Company and we see no reason in the world why Foraker should not be Fighting Foraker Fighting Foraker punished just as was Senator Burton as he seems to have committed a similar offense against the government. Official rotenness, whether committed by a Democrat or Republican should be exposed, and from the evidence at hand there seems no doubt but Foraker, who had kicked up such a hellabaloo in the Republican party, is as guilty of official rotenness as a corrupt human being can be. Think of a United States senator receiving a $50,000 check from such a corporation as the Standard Oil Company, and expecting such senator to vote, when certain corporation bills come up, in the in the interest of the people, who are paying him but $7,500 per year. and you will think of seeing a human being giving up a royal palace to live in a pauper's hovel. If Rooseveltism in Ohio has promised Foraker anything whatever in the way of further political preferment for any support he may give to the Republican nominees for president, then those promises should forthwith be recalled, even if it means the defeat of William Howard Taft for president of the United States. Criminals under no circumstances should be given any consideration by decent men, and we believe the rank and file of the Republican party is made up of decent citizens. Senator Burton, who was exposed and driven from office on a similar charge, is now a howling Democrat, and if Foraker is guilty then he, too, should be driven from office, even if he, like Burton, goes to the Democratic party. Such conjugal devotion as that exhibited by Mrs. Anna Johnson, who walked from Minneapolis to Butte, Montana, and was aided the balance of the way by a railroad ticket purchased by Anne Johnson's sympathizers, who heard her Conjugal Devotion tale of woe, should meet a better fate than what seems Anne Johnson's Conjugal Devotion to be in store for her. Believing her husband, Ole Johnson, was sick and needed her care she left her home without money or means to come to Seattle to wait on him, but on arriving here she has not been able to find any trace of him, though the daily papers have published columns about both herself and her husband. Unless Johnson is dead, gone to sea or to the interior of Alaska, where it is difficult for news to reach him, he is deliberately hiding from his wife. If dead, he would certainly told some one about his faithful wife. If gone to sea then he has willfully deserted her. If gone to Alaska, and he is what she thinks he is, he will soon learn of her sacrifices for himself and get news of consolation to her as soon as possible. The devotion of Damon and Pythios dwindles into complete insignificance in comparison to that displayed by this plucky woman, and it is truly hoped that that devotion will not be rudely shaken by her realizing that her spouse has played her false, which to the casual observer seems a fact. If Johnson possesses the hundredth part of the devoted husband that she is wife, he would have sent her some kind of a message, even on his death bed. If he has gone to sea or to the interior of Alaska, he has likewise shown his undevotedness in not sending her some kind of a message. There, however, is a possibility of these things having been done, and by some hook or crook, not reached her, but in the absence of no evidence along that line, it looks like a very sad case of misplaced confidence. All of Alaska must have stopped to drop a tear of regret when it was announced that Capt. J. J. Healy had passed in his checks of life to Him who doeth all things well. Great as is Alaska and as varied as are its resources, no one man was as much responsible for its rapid development as was Captain Healey. Early in the stam- Capt. J. J. Healy and the Northwest Capt. J. J. Healy and the Northwest pede to that wonderful country of supposed snow and ice Capt. Healey was found. He organized one of the strongest trading companies that ever did business in the Alaska interior, and through it he came in contact and did more business with the great horde of gold seekers than any other one man. His company pushed its trading posts to every part and point where the prospector thought that there was a possibility of finding something, and by that means the country became tolerably well known not only to the prospector, but to the general government. He was well known throughout the Northwest, he having been a pioneer frontiers- SEATTLE, WASHINGTON, FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 25, 1908 man for many yiers. His death, which occurred at Los Angeles a few days ago made the old timers set up and take notice, and they recalled the many and daring incidents in connection with the life of J. J. Healey in the development of the extreme northwest of the United States. It is perhaps the first time in the history of the country that a president of the United States has taken an active and participating interest in a presidential Theodore Roosevelt The Wonderful fectively. The charge of Hearst against Senator Foraker brought forth a letter from the president making it perfectly clear to all concerned that the present administration, in which the Hon. William Howard Taft is a considerable factor, wiped its hands of Foraker some months ago and absolutely refused to enter into any alliance with him as to the political division of the spoils in Ohio. Senator Foraker has promised to reply to the remarks of the president, but has not done so as yet, and perhaps never will. After giving the public to understand that nothing that Hearst said in any way tainted those in whose political destinies he was interested, he turned his attention to the Democratic side of the question and handed Gov. Haskell a bunch of beauties that were so striking and so completely stunning, that the Hon. William Jennings Bryan, the matchless one, was forced to come to Haskell's rescue. Mr. Bryan demanded the proofs from the president as to Haskell's identification with the Standard Oil. In his reply the president admitted that he had no specific proof as to the Ohio episode, but Haskell's Standard Oil connection in Oklahoma was a matter of court record, and that while he, Haskell, was attending the Democratic National Convention at Denver, which nominated Bryan, and at which Bryan himself selected Haskell for the treasuership of his national committee, Haskell was forced to hurry home therefrom in order to look after the Standard Oil interests, which had been attacked by the attorney general of that state. It was through the influence of Gov. Haskell that the Standard Oil Company wae permitted to do things in the state of Oklahoma, which was without "any color of law." What reply Mr. Bryan will make to the president's exposure of Haskell is not yet known, but it appears at this stage of the controversy that the president has all the better of it, and that Mr. Bryan will either have to dismiss Gov. Haskell or his campaign will have to bear the ear marks of the Standard Oil Company. The second annual congress of the Playground Association of America, held in New York last week, like the first congress in Chicago and the notable banquet of last March in honor of Mrs. Humphrey Ward has given the movement in behalf of neglected children The National Playground Congress and air-starved adult city dwellers of America a notable forward impulse. At the first morning conference Alderman Vaughan, of Toronto, Canada, testified to the incentive gained from last year's congress, which has resulted already in large appropriations for playgrounds in his own and other Canadian cities. Every meeting thenceforward gave vivid evidence of the immediate response which progressive communities are giving to this altruistic and intelligent effort on the part of public spirited citizens to supply an insistent and vital national need. There are 907 cities in the United States that have a population of five thousand or more. Of these only ninety, or ten per cent, conducted playgrounds prior to 1908. During this summer 177 cities have had playgrounds in use, and 118 others are planning their immediate establishment. In other words, the number of cities maintaining playgrounds has been nearly doubled, and one out of every seven of the remainder are planning to make a beginning in the near future. The Nstional Playground Association has made every effort to supply information and help to local organizations. Printed matter has been distributed at fifty-eight state and national conventions. Minature models of playgrounds have been shown and exhibitions of lantern slides illustrative of playground activities and needs have been made. Personal letters to the number of 3,638 have been written, not including circulars. The report by the general secretary, Dr. Henry S. Curtis, gave a vivid idea of the work of the association. In Boston twenty-eight school playgrounds have been maintained. Children have been taught swimming at the beaches, asd regular story tellars have gone from playground to playground to tell stories to the children.

That woman’s prize throwing contest, which resulted in Miss Jacklin winning first prize, did not cause the sun to stop, but it was awfully gloomy. In proposing and editorial ar- bitration board Hearst is of the opinion that Haskell has a sense of humor if not of honor. That seems to be true of all Dem- ocrats. Consuelo Vanderbilt has de- cided to return to her husband, the Dukeof Marlborough. No- bility smiles come high, but the rich American girls seem to think they must have them. When the editor of the times pats himself on the back and de- clares the Times won a. signal victory in the late primary con- test there is no use applying the accustomed phrase to it. Johnson, the Alaska murderer, it was found was not hiding in the freight on the boat. No, but we suspect he is hiding in the timbers where he safely landed after he escaped from the boat. Bryan, the peerless one, grew hysterical over the accusations against Haskel, but at last ac- counts Hearst had not with- drawn any of them nor had he taken to the woods to keep from being arrested. Eastern Washington is being invaded by a hungry lot of clam diggers from Seattle this week, but about the only thing that they will destroy will be a lot of good grub and thereby get a rest from clam bakes. Why want to keep some fel- lows from blowing their whistles in the city unless you stop the other fellows from tooting their own horns as do the proprietors of the Times Publishing Com- The former may sound a liltle louder, but the latter is a thous- and times more vulgar. President Roosevelt doubtless admires Taft’s fairness in not wanting to kick a man when he is down, but since Foraker will- fully fell down and then wallow- ed after he was down, he simply wants the public to understand, that William Howard Taft is in no wise mixed up with the man. William Randolph Hearst may be a demagogue, but for the past ten days he has had the political chappies of both the Republican and the Democratic parties guess- ing. However, of the political embroligio Mr. Taft and his man- agers seem tobe pulling out with spotless garments. City Engineer Thompson may notaccomplish very much when he goes abroad for the city, but the city authorities seem to al- ways send him in preference to any One else, and we cannot be- lieve for a single minute that Thompson has all of the author- ities hypnotized. So many garbage plans for the city of Seattle are being brought to light by the various members of the city council that there is danger of the Dagoes continuing doing the work for, an indefinite period. It occurs to us that the Repub- liean appathy throughout the country is a badomen for Repub- lican success in November, and then of course the troubles at Republican headquarters are not helping matters a darn bit. Property owners in Seattle are being taxed small sums of money on their lots to pay for the gov- ernment canal between the Sound and Lake Washington, which to say the least is a gross imposition and government hold- up, but in our opinion, the best thing to do is to pay it. Wanted to Shoot And now - another policeman has been caught in the very act of drawing his revolver to kill an unarmed citizen right in police headquarters and it was only the hasty intervention of Capt. Wil- lard that prevented him from carrying out his deadly threat. Judging from the two cases here- in mentioned it is very danger- ous for private citizens to be taken to the police headquarters on any kindof a charge lest some of the officers take offense at the replies they make to their vulgar questions and shoot or knock them down for their alleged im- pudenee. Evidently it is next to death itself to contradict a po- liceman’s word in this man’s town, and yet it had not occur- ed to the mostof us that the Czar of Russia had acquired the United States as part of his do- main. It Was Not a Favor Speaking about old times in Seattle—Alfred Holman, proprie- tor of the San Francisco Argo- naut, of San Francisco, told a rather amusing joke at his own expense a few days ago while visiting in Seattle. “‘Of course you know Brittain Oxendine, who at one time was Leigh Hunt’s handy man. Well, Isent him to the house of a lady, who had invited me to a card party, with a note of regrets as the duties at the office detained me toatime beyond that I was ex- pected at her home. About two hours after that I saw Brit, and to my surprise, he handed me back my own note. ‘Why did you not give the lady the note?’ I enquired rather out of patience. ‘Well, the fact of it, Mr. Hol- man, when I got there I found the lady’s husband at home, and did not think you wanted him to see that note,’ and he gave me a knowing smile. I think I bluttered and likewise blushed, but finally excused him for the day. He has always believed he did me apersonal favor, and I have never cared to shatter his ideals,’” Its No Trouble To call for you legal notices. If you ring i MAIN 305 And leave your office ad- dress.

Our children’s children may think Se- attle was an ideal spot on which to build a city, and sing praises to our memory for having se- lected so admirable a site, but they will little realizes that ‘it cost us the savings of alife time to do so, All these improve- ments to be sure make Seattle the great bustling city of the Northwest, but it in turn makes paupers out of the most of the persons now owning property in her corporate limits. Lee Johnson, the Alaska mur- derer, may be at the bottom of the deep blue sea, owing to not be- ing able to swim ashore when he jumped from the boat on his way back to Nome where he would have to stand trial for the mu:- der of his consort, but it is not generally believed. After giv- ing the matter very careful con- sideration one is moved to ex- claim, ‘‘there is certainly a nig- ger in the woodpile in this whole affair!’’ Johnson escaped while the guard slept, while the crew likewise slept; and jumped over- board and drowned himself while all hands slept on. If he did all these things the man was super- natural and was able to cast a spell over all on board of that vessel while he cooly took one of the row boats and went ashore. THE SEATTLE THEATER Next week the Seattle Theater will have lichard & Pringle’s famous Georgia minstrels for the attraction. This is the biggest, oldest and best colored minstrel organization in the world, and has aiways been the best. There have been others but they were all imitators. More colored per- formers have graduated from this troupe than from all other combined sources. The troupe gives a genuine, minstrel enter- tainment, and it is of an amusing character and furnishes, inci- dentally. more good music than two-thirds of the so-called mus- ieal comedies now appearing be- fore the public. The company is headed by Clarence Powell, the dean of colored comedians. They give a combination of up-tc- date comedy, opera and the us- ual ministrel entertainment. A band of Arabs that would make Buffalo Bills Indians look iike novices, is a strong feature of the minstrel show at the Seattle Theater next week. “The Four Corners of the Earth,’’ the biggest melodramic performance that has been seen in Seattle for a very long time, is at the Seattle Theater this week; but you have to see it to appreciate it, for it is indescrib- able, unless analyzed under four separate articles. The plot takes the hero and several other char- acters to the four corners of the earth to fullfill a vow. It furn- ishes the most startling and com- plete set of thrills that has been seen in Seattle for several sea- sons. The company is compe- tent and ‘‘then some,’’ and the scenery is great.

A St. Louis judge has ruled that cancer of the womb is not a disease peculiar to women with- in the meaning of a provision in an insurance certificate to the ef- fect that it should not cover such diseases. He claims cancers are common to the human family and because they attack one par- ticular organ of women is no reason for claiming it a disease of women.

Yet it has been done as will be seen from the follow- ing specimen, sent us by a Kan- sas correspondent. It seems that a colored citizen of Lawrence commenced an action for divorce, and set up about all the causes enumerated in the statutes. The defendant called on Judge J. Q. A. Norton, an old bachelor, and asked him to file an answer for her. She told him the story of her courtship and marriage, and thisis the way Judge Norton described it in his answer: “Defendant says that in the spring time when the colts ard lambs were gamboling on the green; when the bluebirds were softly chirping and courting in the leafy boughs; when the prancing yellowhammer and the sensuous woodpeckers were flirt- ing together about the openings in the hollow trees; when the mocking bird was swelling its feathery throat in song from the pungent branches of the persim- mon tree; when the gentle twit- ter of the pewee was heard be- neath the eaves, and aeolin strains of the meadow lark were re-echoing in the sky; when the amorous jay was heartlessly co- quetting the modest turtle dove; while the sap was coursing through the veins of the quaking cottonwood, and lovers were strolling idly in shady lanes and beneath the fragant apple blos- soms; when the warm south breeze was softly sighing through the sycamore and pine, and the tender sunshine was wooing the sleeping daisies back to life; when pregnant na- ture had wheedled hoary winter into the lap of spring, then came the plaintiff, this dusky Othello, and with his honeyed words and Bryonic advances, and with his oleaginous tongue, pictured to the defendant the joys that were in store for them in a vineclad THE SEATTLE REPUBLICAN WILSON R. GAY cot beside the hill. Nor did the enerzy of this insinuating and superficial lover wane with the heat of summer, but as the sea- son advanced his ardor rose with the mercury in the themometer. When the first chill frost nip- ped the tender leaves of the m.- andering and laviscious pumpkin vine — with all the happiness that had been pictured to her burning in her mind, and with the thoughts of a cheerful fire in a cozy corner where she and plaintiff could hibernate as hap- pily as two bear cubs, while the blasts of the coming winter were sweeping from Greenland’s icy peaks, this defendant put her hand in plaintiff’s and then the two souls with but a single thought, two hearts that beat as one, wandered away ty plaintiff’s cabin. ’’—Law Notes. In view of the fact that the most of the judges of the super- ior court of the state of Wash- ington have just passed through a trying ordeal the following borrowed joke might be signifi- cant: The pompous judge glared sternly over his spectacles at the tattered prisoner, who had been dragged before the bar of justice on acharge of vagrancy. “Have you ever earned a dol- lar in your life?’’ he asked in fine scorn, “Yes, your Honor,’”’ was the response, ‘‘I voted for you at the last election.’’ A number of lawyers have been killed recently while riding inautomobiles. The list includes Alfred Lauterbach, of New York, aged thirty-seven, killed on July 30th; George A. Vanderveer, of Hutchinson, Kan, aged fifty- five, killed on August 8rd; David Holmes, of Patterson, N. J., killed on August 2nd; Edward M. Sicard, of North Tonawanda, N. Y., aged thirty-three, killed on August 8th; and J. Montgom- ery Sears, of Boston, aged twen- ty-eight, killed on August 12th. Es There will be but one change in {the judicial roster of the King county superior court!next'year and that change will be the Hon. Wilson R. Gay,whojwill succeed Judge Arthur Griffin, who voluntarily retired after hav- ing served on the bench for eight years. In seeking a place on the bench Mr. Gay did so forjno‘other.reason than because he had an ambition to become a judge, the greatest ambition of all attorneys, for he leaves a lucrative law practice to do so. He is in’splendid finan- cirl condition, not exactly wealthy injthe common ac- ceptance of that term, but a comfortable liver. At the time he’ goes on the bench he will have about reached his fiftieth mile stone, and if he remains on the bench for three terms, it will mean that he will retire there~ from when he is in his early sixties andjwilljof course then retire from active duties. He is of aifine judicial mind and it is very generally believed that he will de- velop into one of the ablest judges of the Nortnwest. Mr. Gay is one of the best read men in the city and has one of the most extensive home libaries of any one in Seattle. {tis said that his library, not including his law library, has cost him uswards of $5,000.

Juige Frater Popular A very beautiful story is being told of Judge Frater of the Juv- enile Court. Two boys employ- ed by a big firm was caught pur- loining articles from the estab- lishment. They were arrested and taken before him, but con- trary to expectation, after hear- ing their story, he did not send them to the reform school, but he, himself, appealed to the firm to take the boys back and he would stand responsible for any- thing they were caught stealing. The manager demurred to this, but finally agreed to give them another trial. The judge called ‘on his charges periodically and frequently took them out to din- ner at the Butler hotel and gave them good advice. Asa result the boys are now among the firm’s most trusted employes and earning splendid salaries. No wonder Judge Frrter ran ahead of all other candidates. states attorney’ for this state, This office he held for five years, giving an able administration of that important office, without scandal or complaint. At present Mr. Gay is in part- nership with Mr. Geo, H. Rum- mens, as Gay & Rummens. No lawyer in Seattle has had a larger or more varied practice. He has tried almost every sort of a law case, civil ard criminal. An Abusive Policeman “Reckless Driving,’’ was the charge placed against a driver of a heavily loaded gravel wagon that rolled down Yesler Way and swung onto Third avenue just at the time a change of patrolmen was going out from the ci y hall. The driver under no circtm- stances could have managed the wagon in its condition even if it had ran over the Mayor, much less a vulgar policeman, as was the one that arrested the driver. While the man stood in the police headquarters surrounded by an army of blue coats, he was called adamn liar and other dirty epi- thets were applied to him by Of- ficer Number 123, who stood with his fists clinched and drawn with the evident intention of knock- ing the man cold if he replied to a single one of his vile and un- gentlemanly terms. This officer- who had taken an oath to pre- serve order, just stood trembling to strike a man not half his size, and that, too, in police head- quarters.

They have thair own churches, debating societiss and social gatherings. As farmers they cannot be classed as a brilliant success, yet many of them have good homes as may be seen from the above picture. One thing is tus, however, these from the cities and towns who visit them are not long in discovering, they live at home and board at the same place. Amonz those who have homes in the vall2y we find the following: ‘A. H. Hawkins. 40-acre hop ranch and homestead, $20,000. Oley Washingson, 100-acre home- stead, $8,009. J. L.

Fate Spaight, 150-acre homestead, $4,000, 8 : SHOULD The importance of this subject is not confined to the 10,000,000 Negroes of this country, but ex- tends to the 70,000,000 white peo- pleas well. For as long as the two races live together there is no weal or, woe that comes to the Negro, that does not directly or indirectly effect his white neigh- bor. So we cannot well discuss the subject without an occa:ion- al reference to the opposite race. Now the first question to be be settled is whether or not the rural district is a better place for the masses of our people to live than is that of the cities. But we believe that all the students of ethnology, who have carefully studied the social, moral and in- tellectual status of our race have conceded that the moral and physical sanitary environ- By Rev. A. L. Brown ments of the rural districts offer greater advantages and la ger opportunities for the devel p- ment of the peculiarly situated race, than does the congested sur- roundings of the city life. And the great problem before us now isin getting the masses of our people to see these advantages and opportunies and induce them to accept them. We use the word induce instead of the word force, for we believe that it is easier to devise plans to’ induce the Negro to live in the rural dis- tricts than it is to make laws to force him to live there. But we make no attempt in this paper to build the necessary chain of in- ducements, to solve this perplex- ing problem. But we do believe that one link in that chain is the possession of a good country T {E SEATTLE REPU! LICAN IN FARMS home. The Negro who owns a good country home or farm, with corn in crib, meat in his ‘‘smoke house” milk and butter in his dairy, chickens and eggs in his poultry yard, vegetables in his garden, potatoes in his bank, melons in his field, delicious fruit in his orchard and vineyar?, wood in his wood: yard, good, pure water in his well and a gocd comfortable house, with plenty of room to live in, good clean beds to sleep in, a good stove ard stove room to cook in, a gocd dining room to eat in and an ex- tra dollar in his pocket and a good horse and buggy to drive will find no trouble in keeping himself, his wife and his chil- dren away from town only when they go there on business. NT ne eg eee AT eR, eee Ce ey et people, who live in the country and are requested to remain there. For here is where the rural district problem of the Negro comes in. How can the Negro come into possession of a country home at the present high prices of farm larids? No one expects that all the members of the race shall ever become land owners any more than that all the individuals af any other race should become land owners, but we do assert that for those who desire to own country homes there are many ways by which they can do so. If we save up money and go to the white land owner witha good strong first payment on a home, that will be an inducement to go to him to sell and also give the purchaser a good chance to meet the other payments. But we some times fail in our efforts to buy land by making bargains for more than we can reasonably hope to be able to pay and there- by losisg our first payments and still leaving ourselves without a home. It is better tobuy ona small scale. At other times we make the mistake of trying to buy lands that are already cleared and worked up toa high state of cul- tivation where the price is be- yond our reach. It is better for us to go into. the remote and poorly developed sections of the country and buy lands in the rough at a lower price and work it up to the desired state of culti- vation. For we have more time to clear lands and build up new neighborhoods than we have money to pay for high priced lands in the old and more invit- ing neighborhoods. And after these settlements have been built up let them be made attractive by well laid out farms, cultivated after the modern and improved methods of farming with gocd roads running through them, with comfortable houses to live in, with nice clean yards and flower gardens to decorate them, with nice churches, built after the modern styles, good, comfort- able school houses, good halls for social gatherings and amuse- ments. Then let the neighbor- hood be surpassed by the chirrup of the sparrow at the eave of the house and the voice of the song- bird as she warbles her notes in the lofty tree tops. « But it may be objected that such settlements cannot be made by colored people, but we answer that there are thousands of them already in existence, owned by oar people, and only need to be rearranged and made more prof- itable and atrractive. But we do not wish to convey the idea of the absolute segregation of the Negro land owner, by grouping tiem all off in neighborhoods by themselves, for we do not believe that to be to his best interest. But the idea is that wherever the Negro owns or can owna home in the country, whether it is to bea settlement of his own people or in a settlement among white people. let him make that Friday, September 25, 190. Reg te PE tng ae eee See ere re ee have to be thrown around them to make them contented and prosperous, so that they will want to stay. In this the white land owner will be called upon to dohis part; for the Negro’s re- maining in the rural district is as important to the white man as it is to the Negro himself. The white man needs the Negro as a laborer, and without MS Negro the whiteland owner can- not utilize his land. So we call upon our white neighbor to as- sist us in inducing our people to remain inthe rural districts, by giving them regular employ- ment and wages that will be commensurete with their ser- vices, and rent them lands upon¢ terms that will ensure them a comfortable living, and to build for them good, comfortable houses, with the necessary con- veniences around them, and thereby remove the excuse for going to the city for empioyment and better home surroundings. And in this we believe that our white. neighbors can go a long way in helping to solve the problem of inducing our people to remainin the rural districts. Although our people do not own the houses they live in, they can, by a little extra effort, help to keep the property in good repair and be more than repaid for it by the extra vomfort derived from it. There are many little ways in which a rented homes may be beautified and maddé comfortable and convenient as a place of abode, which would aid materially in making our families happy -and contented with their country surroundings. We have already referred to the importance of good, comfort- able school buildings.. Butin ad- dition to good buildings, we need to supplement the public school fund with private contributions from the patrons of the school. soas to give longer terms and better salaries to teachers. With the employment of first-class in- structors in our rural schools, our people would no longer be under the necessity of going to the city to educate their children We admit, however, that our raral people have a right to live in the city if they chocs2, but we believe that, with inducement along the lines that we have sug- gested, they will see that it is to their best interests to remain in the rural districts. “How dear to my heart are thet, scenes of my chilhood, When fond recollection presents them to view! .
