Thoughtful and helpful papers were presented and discussed. No time was wasted n foolish pedantry or “play at learning” but, each participant dip- pe: deeply in the fount of common sense and brought out practical ideas that a stauggling peop'e must lay hold upon, if they would rise to success and aifluence, Wisdom was plenteously displayed.

Contemporary with the assemblying of the ladies’ convention will begin a great Pentecostal Meeting, under the auspices of mem bers of the Missouri conference of the A, M.

Local committees, under the personal supervision of Rev. Wil liam Alexander, pastor of Quinn chapel, this city, are making ample preparatiohs to properly care for all who may come. It is hoped that the outcome of these meetings may haye a last ing effect, for good, upon the communities represented.

Let them be inducted into our best homes and given first class entertainment, Political Unanimity of the Negro Detrimental to His Best Interest. After several years of thoughtful consideration of the Negro’s political interest, so for as it affecfs the community where he abides, we have been convinced of some of his errors. Circumstances now make it expedient for him to study this question carefully, if he would serve properly the best interest of the state and himself. He has been swayed too long by local party prejudice and narrowness, It has been bis custom to vote his feelings rather than his sense. Not only has the Negro been given to this grave blunder but the southern white man allowed himself to be duped in like manner, Fear of ‘Negro Domination,” ‘“Miscegenation” and a bundred oth er Negro Bogymen led him to vote against his local interest often un tilrecently. Dvring the past decade he has opened his eves, looked about himself and permitted reason, judgment and common sense to have a say betore arriving at his political conclusions. Happy has been the result. A new and grander south has arisen from the ruins of a once blood drenched land. Southern white men have observed that the cultured Negro is as much averse to intermarriage and oth rot that caused many useless contentions as he is, In fact he eare nestly begs his white brother to “shinny on his own side.” If southern white men have learned, by experience, that a differ- ence in politics 1s helpful to his business and social interest, why Per Year (in advance) ..... «+. $1.00 Six months (inadvance) ......, .60 BUA CYL: vic iciecevecus i Drink the beer your fathers drank And get your moncy’s worth, Is the Choice product of the Brewer's Art, Sold Every where, When buying, see that you get Lemp’s. ° E.

ADMISSION, 25 CENTS. should the southern negro continue to make himself a slave to one idea and depend upon one party or class, absolutely, for everything desired? In every community the acgro should align himself with the best citizens—democrats, republicans, prohibitionist and social- ist, He should counsel with them upon all propositions that con- cern his home, his church, kis school and his municipality, After such conferences, he should use his ballot to sustaia the men and | measures that are pledged to safeguard the highest interest of all concerned, We have permitted sweet tongued politicians to lull us into sleepy subservience too long. Only one idea reigns supreme in every act of the professional politician and that is “to get his” at once and then graciously smile, while promising the other fellow some thing later on; provided, it is something he does not desire for self. Negro suffragists must wake up, They must be as independent and thoughtful in the use of their ballots as the Irish, German, Jew and other races of this land are, Because he is loyal, the republican party never thinks of making any provisions to care for him, except to give him a spittoon job, Let the c. 0. Pp, see that we know our worth to it, ‘ocally, and we are certain that it will do the right thing, It use to be an indicatiun of a good republican, whenever and wherever you sawa black face, But the Negro has learned from dealings with the “lily whites,” “silk stockings” and ‘“spellbinders” that that has been to his political detriment, 1906 will find more in- depenient negro voters in Missouri thanever, He is becoming an independent voter not for graft but rather to destroy the grafters, white and bluck, democratic or repubiican, } Colored Fair for 1906. ‘The Stockholders of the LaFay- ette County Colored Fair Asvoci- ation of Higginsville and Lexing- ton are preparing to make the fair thatis to be held at the Hig- Ginsville Fuir Grounds the best in the history ot it#existence.

The pastor and members of Mt. Zion M E church will spare no pains to make this one of the greatest celebrations ever conducted in Johnson County. The people of Sedalia and other neighboring towns will be invited. So everybody look for the Bills early. Don't forget the date Aug. 4th. Two social functions have been arranged for, viz. A grand musicale at Quinn Chapel, A M E church, for the evening of the 18th and the grand installation at Liberty Park on the evening of the 20th. Both of these entertainments will be attended by all the elite of the city. At the opening session at the Court House, Mrs Ida M Cart r.

Dr R T Bridgewater of Tulsa L T, a former student and graduate of George R Smith College, came to our city on the morning of the 11 and boldly took unto himself a Better Half in the person of Miss Mattie Holmes, one of the members of the college faculty. The ceremony was performed at the bride's home on East Pettis street at High Noon of the 12th, Rev. Richard Davis officiating. Only a small circle of intimate friends, with the family, witnessed the ceremony. At 2:40, they took the train for Pleasant Hill, Dr Bridgewater's former home, where they will spend a brief honeymoon before going to Tulsa their future home. Both of the high contracting parties are well known and loved by all Sedalians, young and old. The meanest thing our Tyler has ever done was to come here and take away our Mattie, without giving us a moment's warning. Since we love him so dearly we shall forgive him. The CONSERVATOR joins with a host of others in wishing the hap py twain a long and prosperous journey through life. --- TIPTON. Mrs Nadine Taylor is visiting her mother.

The New State Of Oklahoma Statehood for OKLAHOMA and Indian Territory will give this section a tremendous impetus in growth and development. Even now, the towns and cities are growing up. requiring more and demanding more; pushing wide awake citizens who see the virtue of encouraging enterprises of every kind, in needfulness of getting more and better facilities, and more hands to develop the country. Briefly, the condition is this: Oklahoma is really in need of nothing save people. More men are wanted. There are vast areas of unimproved land—land not yielding the crops of which it capable. The same thing, in a different way, is true of towns. Few lines of business are adequately represented. There are openings of all sorts, for small stores of all kinds, for mills and manufacturing plants, for banks, newspapers and lumber yards. Mechanics and professional men both are in demand. Your Opportunity Now while land is cheap and the country is settling up. On Suly 17, August 7 and 21, exceptionally low rates will be made to Oklahoma, tickets good 30 days from date of sale and permitting stopovers at pleasure. This rate, with the stopover privileges, will enable you to thoroughly investigate every section of the new state. If you are interested in Oklahoma you should read the July issue of my free paper "The Coming Country." Write for it today. W S ST GEORGE. General Passenger Agent, M., K. & T.
