G o l o r m r i n h W o l t o d a y There are fully 60,000 Negroes on Manhattan island, and while only a few relatively interblend with the population I have portrayed, they have slum districts of their own, which, if they are not as large as where the white element preponderates, they are no less foul and dangerous. Twenty thousand of these people have come to the city within the last ten years, and in one ward where 10,000 of them dwell, there are ninety saloons, eighteen liquor stores, eight Raines hotels, and only one colored church; and in another equally crowded, the Thirteenth, there are 10 saloons seven liquor stores, fourteen Raines hotels and no colored church. And it has been estimated that if every Negro, man woman and child in New York desired to attend religious services only one in five could be accommodated in their available meeting houses. What other result can be expected from this lack of ethical and spiritual training than denomination and the increase of vice and crime? There is a Negro question in the South, but, unless all signs fail, there will soon be a Negro question in the North. Unless something is done we shall have a section of "darkest Africa" in the heart of this most imperial city, and one that may cast a brighting shadow on what is most highly prized. France's Negro Vice President. One of the four vice presidents of the French chamber of deputies is a colored man. His name is Greville Reach, and he represents the island of Giaeloupe. He has been prominent in political life as a journalist and a member of parliament for the last twenty-five years. M. Greville-Reache ran as vice president on January 12 and was elected by 255 votes against M. Jaures, who polled only 199 votes. The friends of M. Jaures are very angry and remember for the first time that M. Greville-Reache is a colored man. M. Clemenceau writes in L'Aurore: "M. Greville-Reache is a mulatto in politics as well as by race." —Ex. Mrs. Harper Ill. Mrs. Lizzie Horper, of Montgomery City, Mo., and who is here with her dauhter, Miss Sadie, who is a Geo. R. student, is confined to suite of rooms on E. Cooper St. with LaGrippe. She was resting very well when ye editor called. SEDALIA, MISSOURI, FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 26 1904. FOR SCHOOL cords that bind her to the universe, all things tangible may prove false, and nature herself must become fickle, ere an iota of my love be with drawn from the darling of my affections. There is not one bit of jealousy within my bosom. But envy is ripe. I envy every living creatures that receives more of your attention than 1. I envy the Sun who can look down daily upon you, and scatter its light and health giving serum for your delectation. But why this infatuation? It is because of the inestimable virtues, which you possess. I have seen many far more beautiful-and beauty is not a despicable virtue, many with forms just or, if not more, comely, many whose external appearances were all that could be desired, but basing these trifling adornments they were only the skeletons of what the Creator intended them to be. Not to make you vain, but that you may cultivate them the more. I shall enumerate some of what seems to be your inherent qualities, that make you the admiration of all my sex and especially myself. Goodness, kindness, placidity of temper, modesty, politeness and too many attributes to mention. And were I myself not so wicked and mean, to whom no angel would condescend to speak. I should think you one in disguised appeared. Now it is your right and duty to demand a lover possessed of the same qualities, indeed, if you do not, you will be derilict in your moral obligation and will be inviting the friend who will destroy your earthly happiness and put in jeopardy the chances of future enjoyment. And more, were I to find thee living a dual life, an angel in company, a vixen in the home, though it break my heart and destroy my peace, yet would I spurn thee and say get the gone gay deceiver, go hence traitorous thou art not worthy to be in the confines of true society. NEGRO DOR5EY D00W MISS DORSEY DOOM, Nowhere, On Earth. Shall I begin by saying Dearest Dorsey, or by saying Dear Miss Doom or, My Darling Dorsey, or My Doom Darling? Oh! I have it at last. Dearest Darling Dorsey Doom, deem it not a daring deed that I declare my dying devotion to my dear and devoted dove, nor doubt, my dearest, the deepest depths of duty drives disloyal deigns deathward in disgrace, never dreading double-dealing domestic difficulties. But, Dear Dorsey, aside from folly and pleasantry, in writing you, there strikes me a subject more serious. Have you ever considered the fate of those who link their destinies together in true love? Doubtless you have notice how a man will fondle his dog, how a woman will pet her cat, each showing a degree of friendship, but no even verging to-wards the boundary of love nor even pointing towards its confines. If you have never, this is the most opportune time; for "the melancholy days the saddest of year" will lend their influence. Now, you find no birds mating, no larks carolling their songs of love, no jovies showing their infatuation by live-long days of running down their mates, no robin standing upon a weed, making pretty bows to his fiance. You will find that all nature seems to shed the robes of gayety and have decked herself in mourning. The trees have shed their once green and golden foliage and now stand with their bare branches as if to say to the world that no love is lasting, all pleasures are fleeting and those who profess to love us the more soon full off for even more a surdid lover. But draw not your conclusions of my fidelity from the picture which I have tried to portray, but listen to the immortal words of Shelley, "they sin who tell us love can die." Though likethe tree your lover may shed hypocrisy and cant, but his constancy shall be proved by his steadfast stand through the cea eless train of time. And this leads on to another thought. Every person has his ideal woman, and think me no vain flatterer, my love, when I tell you that you are my ideal. And do you know that when a man has found his ideal he thinks she is the embodiments of the essence of all virtue and happiness, that no object lower than an angel is worthy to be compared with her, that in the cluster of the stars she shines the brightest? Now my love you are all this and more to me; you are my hearts desire and my soul's delight. Would that I could command words to express myself. And you are sweet, too yes, great goodness, sugar is sweet, and lasses is sweet and both of you are sweet. But you doubt me. Now, that your weaverings may be removed that your apprehensi ns may give way, misgivings may be of none avail, I do again declare to you my fidelity and loyalty. Prove false to you? Impossible! Perish the thought. It cannot so be. The earth may break the the force of gravity and rend the SCHOOL But, Dearest Dorsey, I must close this note, not that I am tired, but in order that I may accommodate myself to the mail. But believe. I could write until the twinkling stars, wrapping themselves in the light sheet of the morning, hie away to sleep, slumber and rest bidding me do likewise. Here is my devout wish to the author of all love and my benediction to you. Let me a true worshiper at your shrine be, a worthy lover. May heavens' choicest blessing rest with you constantly. May errratic Cupid cover his flame that no other moth's wings may be singed, not that it is painful, for 'tis more pleasure to be burned by the flames of love than to fly unhurt and unharmed in the darkness of indifference, but that jealousy may not arise and envy be forced to slink to her retreats in the caverns of darkness. May joy, pleasure, contentment and all the attendant delights of love be yours. Let the sighing winds bear tidings of my devotion, let music from every source be a reminder that I am true, let the hill suggest the thought that love changes not, let the coming and going of the days deeper your conviction in my fidelity, let the blooming rose portrait to you my ever widening hopes of the joys of love which are yet to come, let the rising sun greet you for me and think it is done only half. P. S. I must not close this note until I have tried at least to dispell all your vagaries, scatter the cloud of doubts. I might use figures and flowers, but the plain truth is, I love you, and ever shall, yes in the great beyond, in the by-and-by, in the future in eternity; for it is more lasting than time plus eternity. Love, that little word, means so much for me when used in reference to you, for in it all my happiness exists. Would that I could hear the voice of my wee-bit, the cooling of my dove, the singing of my bird of paradise. Yet there flits, through my mind anon a thought that may hap you were not destined for me. And if so, I shall say with Tennyson, "I hold it true, whatever may befall. I feel it when I sorrow most, it is better to have loved and lost than never to have loved at all. Heartily as I wuld do it. Let your thoughts revert to me now and then if it give you no pains. Let you be happy in my love, and let me paraphrase an expression to tell you my devotion. You are the biggest waffle on my girdle, sweetened by the honey of love poured from the bung hold of affection. I am yours devotedly and lovingly, NEGROES ON JURIES Our readers will remember we published an article, a few issues ago, bearing on this same subject. The case was in Montgomery, Ala., where the right of Negroes to sit on juries was contested. The case was appealed to the United States Supreme Court. And now we are delighted to have our readers know the Court's decision: "When Negroes are excluded from being drawn on juries, on motion of any Attorney defending a man, the verdict could be set aside, when a conviction was had." Now, since this is decreed by the U. S. Supreme Court, and Missouri is a part of these United States, and the Negro of Missouri is a citizen of the United States, this right is ours as well as that of the Alabama citizens. The Stand of The Spectator. "The Spectator is a Negro paper—neither republican or democratic unless the men chosen to represent either party give PROMISE OF HELPING the race—substantial promise—not before, but after the political smoke of battle has blown over." Three cheers for Bro. Jones. Pulmonary Trouble. Mrs. H. L. Billups is confined to her bed with Pulmonary trouble. She took herbed last Wednesday, and Dr. J. M. Harris was called. Mrs. Martha Finis, of Pleasant Green. was in our city on business last Thursday. While here she was the guest of Mrs. Julia Woods. DIRECTOR. TATTLER DR. FELIX ADLER on the NEGRO And here I wish to speak especially of the highly cultivated Negro of whnm it has been my good fortune to know not a few. If you will put yourself for a moment in the place of one of these men, these cultured Negroes, and I hope you will not question that there are such—black man with whitest souls, shut out from the masses of their own people by their very superiority, their very refinement, their delicate response to every intellectual and aesthetic need, and yet shut out equally by a barrier, which even in thought, they must not dare to overleap, from white men on the same plane of culture and development with themselves—if you will for a moment put yourself in the place of these you will find yourself compelled to re-read your philosophy of life, to seek and perchance, see new light as to what should be our attitude towards limitations imposed upon us and which we cannot transcend **** The educated Negro may devote himself passionately to his own people, may seek the ideal society of Plato and Shakespeare, nevertheless he breathes the same atmosphere with the white man around him and he is constantly brought into relations with them and how shall he bear the scorn and degradation implied in their estimate of him? But he must see himself and the other through his own eyes. He must realize the fundamental truth, that if a man does not recognize the essential humanity of another—as Christianity has it, the Christ in him, as we should say, the divine potential humanity in another—it is because the divine humanity in him is still shrouded and undeveloped; that a man is what he sees; that a man who does not see the manhood under the white skin; that a man who says to another: "No matter how much of a gentleman you may be you are still, because of your color, a dog, publicly advertises the fact that he is, to that extent, still near the brute level himself; is to that extent, an inferior of his black brother, no matter how superior he mry be in polish or learning or race virility; and hence, must be treated as one who is to be made to see. The Negro Problem, is a national problem, a problem of universal Democracy, but above all, it is a spiritual problem." Trouble For Prof. From Saturdays Capital we learn that a Prof. in the white High School has gotten himself into it. The Prof. caught some young ladies copying their examinations from other ladies' papers. He took the papers from the girls and tore them in pieces before the class, and called the girls "thieves and liars." And now the Prof. is prevailed on to apologize to the class for his actions.

The Ground-Hog and LaGrippe, from present indications must have formed a little "community of interests" of their own.

We heartily concur in the sentiment conveyed. Our plea for the election or selection of a Negro as school director is based upon that principle. Let the Negroes of Sedalia township rest not until they have received something in return for "goods" delivered. WHAT Negro enterprises have you planned to set in operation during the summer? Do you mean to allow another whole year to roll around with out anything undertaken that shall add credit to yourself and honor to your race? Study the needs of your community and then study your own abilities and see if you can not begin something that, by putting all your strength and intelligence in, may be developed to a strong self supporting enterprise.

Now the council has or is about to threaten all delinquents with a refusal to allow them to vote at the city or county elections unless they hold a receipt certifying the payment of their poll-tax. Should this be carried out many hundred voters will be nominally disfranchised this spring. What next, we would like to know? MARCUS ALONZO HANNA. Why does the world wait until an individual falls by the hand or death to tell of his virtues? Why not give man and all men justice, while they live, then it would add some happiness to them during the hours they are weighted down with the cares of great responsibilities. What man in public life has been more severely abused than Senator M. A. Hanna? His slanderers have accused him of every conceivable act, which only demagogues and plutocrats are susceptible of performing. Why? For no other reason than to poison the public mind against him, one of the most patriotic and sympathetic citizens. He was made the subject of every malicious assault of the Cartoonist—no man was ever more widely and severely caricatured than he. Yet, all the venom of the cartoonist and vitriol of the orator was poured out without sufficient grounds for justification. Senator Hanna was a political fighter of no mean repute and when he fought, he fought to win. Never theless, facts are wanting to prove that he ever fought an unmanly fight. He, being a business man, combined business with every thing he undertook, whether it was the conduction of a National Campaign or debating the feasibility of Canal Construction. Senator Hanna—The organizer of millions for Republican success, the leader of varied industrial interests, the champion of the rights and immunities of the laborers and the sagacious statesman—will be recorded in the annals of each and all as one of the truest, noblest and aggressive type of America's patriotic and loyal citizens. May this allay all prejudice, malice and envy connected with the future study of his deeds. OUR INTERESTS IN THE FAR EAST. THAT american interest in the orient is becoming equal to that of any of the other maritime powers is made more apparent by the setting of each succeeding day's sun. Trade advantages are the motives that move other nations to act in the far East. We are a commercial people, hence, the motive prompts us to action. Our statesmen cannot and will not stand supinely still and see the other great nations get trade privileges in China to the exclusion of some. Secretary Hay's note to the powers on the maintenance of the "Administrative Entirety of China" is only one of the many steps we shall have to hold our own in the Celestial Empire. Since our occupancy of the Phillipine Archipelago, american interests in the far East have become paramount to all other powers, excepting Jacan. Courage nor intelligence in diplomacy and strategy will not be wanting on the part of American statesmen to uphold our interests. KUHN & CO. Blue Front Cor. Lamine and Pettis Bts. Q. C.

Among a class of seventy-six candidates, the name of a Sedalia boy-A. C. Briscoe-is conspicuous both as a candidate and valedictorian of his class. Mr. Briscoe completes the Dental course, and the conferring of degrees and giving to him his diploma, by the College, launches out in this world another professional man of color. Sedalians should be especially proud of this young man, and make all reasonable inducements to have Dr. Briscoe locate and practice his profession here in Sedalia. The conservator hails the graduation of Dr. Briscoe with great joy, for he shall add strength to our rank of professional youths. NATIONAL NEGRO SUFFRAGE LEAGUE CONVENTION. Second Meeting.

In this the wives, mothers, widows, daughters and sisters of Knights are united for the common purpose of life. In this department we are paying out annually thousands of dollars to the widows and heirs of deceased Knights.

March 3 is democratic primary day, March 4 republican primary day and Mar. 5 we shall be called into convention to see if the "fixins" will work. But, lo and behold!

If the President Is Unsafe There Will Have to Be a New Bill of Particulars. The republicans are acting wisely in taking up the democratic challenge that the president is not a "safe" man. Upon that proposition, says the Washington Star, rests the whole anti-Roosevelt movement, whether inspired in trust circles, or in democratic circles on the legitimate hunt for an issue. Mr. Root, speaking with a good deal of knowledge, tells the New Yorkers immediately upon his return home that the president is the most potent influence in public office here for conservatism in affairs. That is a reply to the Wall street howl about the Northern Securities case. If Wall street remains incredulous, let it take the steps to sound sentiment in political circles in this town as to how strong the demand still is for an enforcement of the anti-trust law. The president is executing that law to the full, and in doing so has popular sentiment behind him. But it nowhere appears in his actions that his object or desire is to knock legitimate business on the head anywhere. The great army of manufacturers and wage-earners are not menaced or alarmed. If Wall street thinks the president unsafe let it try congress openly in behalf of its real purposes. Did it fail to note the response, both in congressional circles and out, to the Foraker bill? Another point upon which the arraignment of the president is made to rest is his interference in the matter of the anthracite coal strike. But as to that he is defended by one of the most eminent of democrats. The following is taken from an interview with Judge Gray, of Delaware: "What effect will President Roosevelt's action in compelling arbitration of the anthracite strike have upon his candidacy?" That cannot have. I know what effect it could have. The president in that instance acted with wisdom and patriotism. He prevented fuel riots in the great cities and earned the gratitude of all classes, the wealthy as well as the miners. His prompt and vigorous action really preserved property rights that were seriously endangered. The question—how far may a natural monopoly be controlled by individuals or corporations for private gain—was before the people, and the people were approaching its solution in an ugly mood." According to this—and Judge Gray, it will be remembered, had exceptional opportunity to study the whole question—the president acted not only as a peacemaker, but as the guardian of the peace. The people were becoming aroused to the danger point as to the attitude of those railroad companies which were indifferent alike to the appeals of the miners and the necessities of the country. The president spoke the word of duty, and at the proper time. It is very evident that if Mr. Roosevelt on a question of this kind is an unsafe man in the white house, Judge Gray also would be. And vet a great many democrats seeking for a safe man for president are in favor of the Delaware statesman. Nor can it be doubted that he would fill the office well. If the president is an unsafe man his opponents in Wall street and elsewhere must present a new bill of particulars. Phelps Piano Company Burned. Rochester, N. Y., Feb. 24.—Fire in the factory of the Phelps Piano company's dry kiln in Brockport threatened for four hours to destroy the entire business section of that place and resulted in a total loss of $150,000. The flames spread across the street after destroying the piano works and attacked and destroyed the Moores Subscription agency, a two-story frame building which covered a large area. The loss to the agency is $50,000. Mason County's Unenviable Record. Havana, Ill., Feb. 24.—Mason county, where a few months since Frederick Strube murdered his sweetheart, Alice Hennenger, has been the scene of another sensational killing. Sheriff Brooker and the coroner left Havana for Sardoria, where Charles Miller, a wealthy farmer and director of the schools, shot and killed Richard Edlin, another wealthy farmer, with whom he had a dispute over some corn. CONFLICT WITHOUT END. Bryan Continually Kicking Up a Fuss in the Democratic Party. Is the democratic party in St. Louis in 1904 going to repeat its Charleston convention ruction of 1860? It begins to look that way. Mr. Bryan's Commoner, in a recent issue, after mentioning Bryan's return from Europe, says "the Commoner will make an uncompromising fight for an honest platform and for candidates in full and sympathetic accord with the platforms" of 1896 and 1900." Bryan has personally said the same thing every day since he lauded, with all the emphasis which he can command. He says "the real democrats of the United States want the platforms of 1896 and 1900 indorsed in 1904." His latest expression on the subject is that "the reorganizers will not be strong enough in St. Louis to make even a fight against the Kansas City platform." By the time the convention meets, he says, "the sentiment will be such that the indorsement of that platform will be a foregone conclusion. These deliverances, remarks the St. Louis Globe-Democrat, naturally cause consternation in the ranks of the Cleveland element of the party. Bryan makes it known in most of his interviews that he is more antagonistic to Cleveland than he is to Roosevelt. The Cleveland section of the party reciprocates by saying that as against Roosevelt and a Bryanized candidate they are for the former. Such expressions of members of the democratic national committee and the state committees as have been obtained by the democratic papers seeking them show that a majority are against the Bryan position, but this does not necessarily mean that a two-thirds poll of the delegates can be had against him. Bryan will be at the convention: He has made this known. He will work with all his eloquence and energy in favor of the indorsement of his position in the two latest canvases. His whole political future depends on the result of his fight in the St Louis convention. What he expects to accomplish is either to frighten the convention into putting up a colorless man on a platform which can be construed as recognizing the Chicago and Kansas City deliverances as being orthodox, or to compel it by menaces of a bolt to take up a Bryanized candidate on the Kansas City platform with such new issues as have arisen since. Senator Platt, of New York, the other day said the democracy was becoming "sane and dangerous." That remark does not sound quite so impressive now as it did when it was uttered. Not much evidence of sanity can be discerned in that party's present position. It will be useless for the reorganizers to deny Bryan's power. He was the leader of the party in two canvasses. In each of these he polled many more votes than Cleveland obtained in the last campaign in which he was elected. He is still the party's most conspicuous representative. Under the two-thirds requirement of democratic conventions, a minority has a power unknown in republican assemblages. A bare one-third of the delegates would enable Bryan to control the convention. It is evident that he believes he has much more than a third of the democratic voters on his side. It is clear even that he supposes a majority of them are with him. This gives him a courage and a confidence which makes him say things that anger his democratic enemies. The epithets "unatic," "madman," "fanatic," "marplot," "republican in disguise" and other things which they are hurling at him will not swerve him from his course as a champion of what he considers to be pure democracy. On the other hand, against Bryan and all his works the other element of the party will make a stand, feeling that Bryan's triumph in dictating candidate or platform would be democratic suicide. The participants and the spectators at the St. Louis convention of 1904 will see and hear things that they will be likely to remember. Bryan's Bad Biotch. The Courier-Journal would not impeach Mr. Bryan's integrity; though the Bennett business is a sore strain upon its confidence and respect. Mr. Blaine was charged with nothing worse; and assuredly Mr. Blaine was in many ways much abused. Mr. Bryan may be a perfectly high-minded, disinterested man, but the spectacle of a party leader struggling with a widow for the larger part of her husband's estate—the will and all its appendant documents prepared by himself in his own house more than a thousand miles away from the testator's home—he no blood relative, nor even an old friend—is an unsavory spectacle. With it before us—and along with it the fact that eight years ago Mr. Bryan was obscure and poor and that he is now rich and famous—we must decline to accept the characterization of the Lexington Gazette, his newspaper organ in Kentucky, that he is "the greatest general, the loftiest statesman and the purest patriot who has adorned American politics since the formation of the government." Yet, on no other hypothesis can any man justify his support of Mr. Bryan under existing conditions — Louise QUINN'S BAR -104 E.

Toilstoi talked freely to Bryan; and now if he takes the American papers he has learned that: Bryan marketed the interview at fancy prices. The Russian sage thought he was talking to a statesman, not a reporter.—Indianapolis Journal. In one respect Bryan has a big advantage over his democratic opponents. As Mr. Cleveland says, he has the stage. And while he has it he is talking all the while. And while his talk gets very wearisome to many ears there is no denying that he still has followers who delight to listen to his silvery oratory. There isn't another man in the party who can so tickle the ears of the groundlings, and the groundlings are what Bryan is after. They twice nominated him for president.—Troy Times. Nevertheless and notwithstanding, it still remains true that reciprocity in competitive products, with Canada or any other country, is simply a species of free trade. That is what it amounts to in practice, and the democratic leaders, foreseeing this, will wage their campaign to that end this year under the reciprocity guise. Anyone who advocates or countenances such an attack on protection—all the more dangerous because covert and insidious—will give aid and comfort to the political enemy. Hannibal Courier-Post. These are difficult days for Senator Gorman, nominal leader of his party in the senate. He has been humiliated by the refusal of his party colleagues to follow him in his opposition to the Panama treaty; his presidential candidacy is pale and languishing, finding neither honor with the old school democrats, who remember his emasculation of the Wilson tariff bill, nor with the new school democrats, who remember his inactivity when Mr. Bryan was looking for votes; and now, completing the trilogy of his woe, his Maryland, the state he was reputed to carry in his vest pocket, has selected for the senate Isidor Rayner—N. Y. Globe. Republican duty is to unite about the strongest candidate. Theodore Roosevelt, and to secure that victory for republican principles which must be the inspiration of the continued progress of America—Troy Times. An immense oil painting of Grover Cleveland hangs in the executive mansion, but a Nebraska artist has just completed a portrait of William J. Bryan, painted on the smooth side of a kernel of corn. The size of these pictures typifies the relative importance of the two leaders in the minds of a large number of democrata.—Indianapolis Journal. DIED—Nanna Symanthiae, only daughter and child of Jasper and Piukie Mills, aged 9 months and 18 days. All that loving hands and a skillful physician could do, death would claim his own. May the guardian angels to whose care heaven has entrusted the mother and father, guide them in the paths of virtue and right. Defend them from insolence and wrongs of a heartless world and at last when their stay on earth is ended, may their lives, like that of Nanna Symanthiae, shine back as a beckon amid the gloom.
