SATURDAY, JULY 21, 1900. a For Present: WILLIAM McKINLEY, of Ohio. For Vick-PREsIDENT: THEO. ROOSEVELT, of New York: Booker T. Washington writes that the effort to organize a National Afro- American Business League at Boston, August 23-24, 1900, is meeting with the most gratifying commendation and as- sistance from business men and wom- en inevery section of the country. It is to be understood that this organiza- ‘tion 1s for Afro-Americans who are en- gagéd in the most humble lines of trade, as well as for those in the high- et lines. Few people understand how ‘many successful Afro-American ~ men Say ae : : a Bs, S| ee : te > e 5) | SS PN Si Ge ye Nee SSS SBS. 4) SSS “Zhe = ~ SS \ : yN = Ve = EES \ oN oe pM rre: 3 aEv/ As GAREY and women there are who are engaged in business of all kinds in remote towns and who are succeeding in a quiet way. The object of this meeting will be to get hold of such people and give them such encouragement and advice as will enable them to do more and better business, At the same time a demonstration will be made of the enterprises of the race that will do much to help and strengthen it in the eyes of the world. All persons en- gaged in business who have not yet communicated with Mr. Washington are urged to do so at Tuskegee, Ala, at once. Such an effort deserves and should receive the hearty encourage- ment and assistance of every man and woman of the race interested in its future. ‘The Kansas City convention at: tempted to square a circle when it tried to construct a sound-money-tree- silver platform and nominate a pait of free-silver-sound-money ‘candidates ‘The two things will not mix. One is right and the other is wrong; and no amount of word juggling, wool pull- ing, hedging or evasion can deceive the people: ‘Those who sincerely believe in the free and unlimited coinage of silver at the ratig of 16 to 1, without awaiting the aid or co-operation of any other nation on earth, should vote for Bryan, for he is pledged to that very thing. All other citizens of the Re- public, no matter‘what their previous political affiliations may have _ been, should and must unite against that financial heresy, which, if adopted would plunge the country into a state of business anarchy, such as has neve been experienced by any people since the invention of coined money. It may be assumed with a good de-| gree of confidence that this campaign will not be as profitable for Mr. Bryan jas was the last. The people will be slow to part with their good money to hear hard luck stories. ‘The Nebraska Colonel-Orator's ideas concerning the Philippines are about as clear as his ideas about fin- ance, both beindg more serviceable for ‘campaign purposes than as a, working basis for government. | ‘The Democratic party is no longer frawing inspiration from the memor- jes of Jefferson and Jackson.

The trustees at this time were John Lucas, William Sparrow, Jolin Collins, Isaiah Baker, A. ‘. Hrll. The Rev. Bird Parker, an able Preacher, was employed to travel and eollect funds to pay for the church prop- ‘erty. The sixth pastor 1854-1855 was tue Rev.

First, as to the feeling of the people in regard to the policies and nominees of the great parties, etc. They were generally enthusiastic for the Republican party and its nominees. Second what about China? Some thought the United States had no right and should not mix in the affair. Others were of the opinion she should go in unhesitatingly, join with the other powers and crush China or wipe her off the face of the earth. They all seemed to have decided views and opinions. They were not many in number and were generally of the modest unassuming type, but were decidedly strong in intellect. That is to say they were well posted on the issues of the day, keen in appreciation of the right and bold enough to oppose when occasion required. There were no large social functions during their stay, but they were earnest in their praise of St. Paul and the hospitalities of her people.

The greatest feat of modern civilization is the modern newspaper. This thought comes to mind almost every day as we take from its wrapper The Minneapolis Tribune. It is simply astounding how much in the way of information and fact, as well as intelligent comment one can buy for a cent—new and fresh every day. There is something to be said about The Tribune. It is true of any other Twin City daily. It is consistently and persistently Republican. The Tribune never goes off after false gods nor do the flesh pots of office or the allurements of gain ever swerve it from its support of the right. It is true of the efforts to shape party policy and the selection of candidates for office. All this may be understood, however, from the fact that The Tribune is in no sense an organ; it is a newspaper—with the accent upon the news. No doubt this accounts for its overtopping circulation. When a paper in Minnesota averages for an entire year over 50,000 circulation, as the Tribune does in the ending March "1, 1900), it is going to consider the number of people within its field, than any paper we know of. There are more kinds of people in Minnesota interested in the dog in The Tribune's daily cartoon than in any other one daily creation. These cartoons are infinitely funny, and at the same time full of good sense. They are often when a whole column of editorial might glance off ineffective. The Tribune has recently moved into its new marble front building, of which Defective Page THE APPEAL: A NATIONAL AFRO-AMERICAN NEWSPAPER Little Willie—Mamma, why is tolen kisses de sweetes'? Mamma, I don't know. it is justly proud. Its equipment is said to be without exception the finest, and most up-to-date in America. No money has been spared to make it so and the paper tells on its face that it is the product not only of the best mechanical facilities, but the best newspaper brains and character in the Northwest. We feel like saying to others "Toe the mark with The Minneapolis Tribune."

This is merely an example of prosperity fact. Boss Bryan objects to an imaginary national imperialism. He believes as ever in individual imperialism. The Goebbels are now in possession of all the Kentucky state offices. The delivery of the stolen goods has been accomplished. Eighty-one per cent of the delegates to the Democratic convention recognized that 16 to 19 years ago the President David Bryan wanted it, and Prince David voted for it, so settled it. Four years ago the Democratic party favored an income tax. This year it didn't too many Democrat millionaire now.
