The Appeal

THE APPEAL STEADILY GAINS BECAUSE: 1-It aims to publish all the news possible. 2-It does not impress all noteworthy. 3-Its correspondents are able and amenable. TUSKEGEE Annual Report of Principal Booker T. Washington. VOL.17.NO.43. To the Trustees of the Tuskegee Normal and Industrial Institute: Gentlemen: During the present session, 12 new women have been in attendance, and the average daily attendance has been 1.010. About one third have been young women and the remainder young men. The average age of the women admitted under 14 years of age, and unless they have had some academic preparation. The students have come to us from foreign countries, including 14 from Cuba and Puerto Rico. Aside from the students just named, who are in the regular industrial, academic and religious departments, there are 160 in the training school, which is taught upon the school grounds and under our control. This training school is a school of practice for those in the town of Tuskegee and the children of our teachers, and is not only used to benefit children of the town, but as a school of practice for those of our students who expect to become teachers. A night school is also maintained in the town of Tuskegee and the attendance of 88 students, and is composed of persons who work in the town during the day. An afternoon cooking class is also maintained in the town of Tuskegee for the benefit of the cooking school, it is the aim to teach the best and latest methods of preparing and serving food, and other household duties. Most of those who attend the afternoon cooking school, also attend the night school. Thirteen are at Counting those who are in regular attendance at the institution, together with those in the training school, town night school and the town afternoon cooking school, there is a total of 1,814 students. The number does not include the hundreds of adults who are reached through the Tuskegee Annual Negro Conference, together with its numerous local Negro conferences. There are in the employ of the school faculty of officers, academic teachers, industrial instructors, assistants, clerks, etc., 109 persons. Since its beginning, 498 persons have received diplomas and certificates of graduation from its various departments, and these are at work in various areas of usefulness in every part of the South. WORK OF GRADUATES. Aside from those who have graduated, it is safe to say that there are more than three thousand who have not remained long enough to receive a diploma or certificate, but who, nevertheless, have been so much benefited by their education, they are doing praiseworthy work. In the early years of the school, the larger proportion of our graduates became teachers. At the present time a majority of our graduates are or industry learned at this institution during the whole of the time. Others combine their industrial knowledge with teaching, while still others teach a portion of the year and work at their jobs. The calls that come to us almost daily, not only from the Negro race, but from whites as well, for our graduates to enter various fields of usefulness, are many—more than we can count. We need to take charge for our graduates to take charge of various departments of agriculture, are especially numerous. If we had the room and means, we could find opportunities for the greatest usefulness for our graduates than we sending out. In accordance with a vote of the Trustees, Rev. R. C. Bedford, one of our trustees, is spending a portion of each year in making personal inspection of the students under-graduates, and one gratifying fact in connection with this inspection is that very few men and women have spent any considerable time at this institution are to be found in idleness. Since the entire value of our work is to be tested by the success of our graduates, we feel that we cannot be too careful in keeping in close and accurate records of those who have been educated here. In several cases graduates of this institution are planting the methods and the spirit of this work in a surprisingly successful manner, on a large scale. The most important factor is this true of the school known as the Mt. Meigs Institute, at Waugh, Ala.; the Snow Hill Industrial Institute, Snow Hill, Ala.; the Christiansburg Institute, at Cambria, Va.; the Denmark Industrial School, Denmark; and we will well several others. It is a notable and encouraging fact that in the case of the schools at Snow Hill and Denmark, that the prime movers in starting and encouraging these schools have been Southern white men who are committed to secure the most promising students from a wide section of territory and to so train them that they will return to their homes and give the communities the benefit of their training. As fact as possible we are encouraging our graduates and others to introduce training in agriculture into the public schools of the South. This we are very important for the schools located in the small towns and rural districts. in this industrial training, we keep specially in mind the emphasizing of those industries at which the students are employed as soon as they leave us. GROWTH AND EXPANSION OF WORK The experiment which we began trying some two years ago of giving training to a portion of our young gardeners, a gardenering, horticulture, dairying, raising and poultry-raising, is proving quite successful. This is especially true of poultry raising. Several of the new agricultural buildings mentioned in this chapter were all of these were buildings greatly needed. Among them a heenery. This new building gives us the opportunity of teaching the raising of all kinds of poultry. We also have friends whose gift made it possible for us to erect the heenery, also enabled us to build a new barn for the dairy cows, and a new dairy house. All three of these buildings were much more effective in position to do much more effective work. Dorothy Hall, the new Trades' Building for Girls, gives us by friends in New York, to which I made reference in my last report, is completed. This is a very satisfactory building, and puts us in a position to give more effective training to girls than ever before. In Boston has given us $2,000 to be used in the exercise of training school building, and another in Connecticut has given $4,000 for a hospital. Both of these buildings are in process of erection and are much needed. Morris K. Jesup, of New York, has given $5,000 for a new barn for horses and mutes. This building is also being constructed. Mr. Andrew Carnegie has given $20,000 for a new library building, which has given $10,000 for a training section. In connection with all these buildings sticking to our original idea of having practically all of the work done by the labor of the students. In many respects this has been our most prosperous and encouraging year. This is how we show our financial condition in detail. Very large through the medium of the book, we see the interest in York and Philadelphia and other centers, the interest in our work has not only kept alive, but has grown bigger. FINANCIAL The total amount of money received for general purposes this year has been $189,782.30. Of this amount, the current amount has been used to meet the remainder to meet prior obligations and for permanent equipment. The report of the Treasurer will show that the institution is practically free from debt, and friends can feel assured that whether they give will be used for forwarding of the school, and not in meeting debts. Since my last report we have received for special buildings and other designated purposes in the direction of planting the plant, $252,005.28. At the time this fund will report the Endowment Fund amount to $158,222.49. Since that time this fund has been increased to $252,971.02. The whole of this fund is invested in safe and secure funds for our Endowment Fund Committee in York. This committee consists of Mr. William H. Baldwin, Jr., 128 Broadway, New York; Mr. J. G. Phelps Stokes, 47 Cedar street, New York. The average interest now being received for our Endowment is about 41% per cent. The total amount received from all sources, for all purposes, is $2,129.08. It now costs annually to operate the institution its departments not far from $100.000. To meet this annual expense we are now assured of the following amounts: $4,500 from the state of Alabama. $1,000 from the Peabody Fund. $800 from the John F. Slater Fund. $2,000 from students' entrance fees. $12,000 from the John F. Slater Fund. $270 from the Woman's Home Mission, as well as several other organizations. Added to these is the interest of our Endowment Fund, which is about $1,100, thus making a total of $32,070 that we can depend upon with reasonable assurance. $600 to be raised each year in order to meet the current expenses of the school. This money is secured mainly in the form of small gifts from indulgent schools and churches and other organizations in all parts of the country. The amount named as needed for current expenses leaves out of account the money needed for buildings, maidens and other improvements of the plant. Two-fifths of the total amount received during the past two years has gone into the permanent plant and Environment. We have a right, I think, to point with pride to the small average cost of educating our students. The total number of students reached being 1,514, and the total current expenses charged being about $110,000 brings whole cost for each individual to $7. The greater proportion of what the students pay is in the form of labor. They have paid toward their expenses in labor this year, $67,291.15, which being made to reduce the expenses of the institution, and to exercise the strictest economy in every department. At this point I cannot refrain from mentioning our indebtedness to six friends whose quiet, unrestricted generosity has lifted this year a great THE APPEAL. ST. PAUL AND MINNEAPOLIS. MINN.. SATURDAY OCTOBER 26. 1901. UPHELD. The Northern Press Without Ex=ception Defends President In Inviting Booker T.Washington to Dine With Him. President Theodore Roosevelt. Editor Post: Why all this fuss about Booker T. Washington and President Roosevelt? In what way has the president acted wrongly? He has consistently been a liberal, an aggressive fighter, a man who, as a thorough citizen, colors race, religion, or nationality in him to practice the principles of his life; therefore, Booker T. Washington was the private guest of Theodore Roosevelt, who recognized in him merit, the keynote of the political and social arch of American citizenship. But the president in his official or personal life does anything else than this incident; he will surely live in history as a man of courage P and splendid Americanism. No man in this great republic is to be tabooed on account of color or religion. The president is not the representative of all men, Christian and white, and black. I venture to say that if he had done me the honor to ask me to be his guest, there would have been a howt from those who object to the South, who would make themselves ridiculous by their insane and stupid prejudice. Booker T. Washington is an American gentleman, a thinker, scholar, educator, reformer—one who is a greater friend of the South than all other mouthing politicians of that section. I see the Republican party is to lose votes in Virginia and Maryland on account of this dinner incident. If so, I for one would be afraid of the fact that such good intentions have been driven into too much lately into so-called reconciliation, but my opinion is that the South is very good indeed just so long as it secures what it wants; and the government tread on one of its best bets to operate like the red rat to the bag. Frederick Douglas and John M. Langston were guests at my house. I have survived the deprivation, but I have learned to appreciate the resources of these men fingers, and is an inspiration. It is true if we are to be a world power that we manifest our power by recognizing the recognition of the men who merit it by act and deed. These wise Democrats of the South ignore the teachings of Jefferson, and forget the golden age of independence; they forget the history of slavery, when the children of the manor and the pickaninies of the hut mingled in fraternal comradeship. Prejudice based on ignorance and custom is hard to kill, but it will have to be overcome. It will not be it by President Roosevelt will be conceded wedge. Would the Southern press have, howled if Boss Croker had been the guest? And yet every decent, clean American citizen knows that the one, although black in skin, is white, while the other, although white, is black, and that the comparison is in favor by long odds of Booker T. Warner. It is the man, not the Negro—it is the high thinking American who is T. R. President Theodore Roosevelt recognized, and that is the basic rock of American institutions, and any departure therefrom is unworthy of the republic. God bless and strengthen the hands of the president. I know he is far above the petty criticisms of unthinking men, and he will as chief magistrate the same power of private and public conduct that endear him to all true citizens, and history will write him down as a worthy successor of Lincoln and McKinley. SIMON WOLF. He is a prominent Washington Hebrew. Editor Post: Apropos of President Roosevelt inviting a colored brother and man to dinner. I recall a remark of his that we were stumping together in Indiana for Garfield in 1880. At Vincennes, at dinner, one day he turned to me in that quizical way he could assume, and said, "Datzell, tell you ashamed of going along with the country this way with a nigger." "Well, no," I answered, my old abolition blood taking fire at the thought, "not a bit. I should be ashamed to travel around with some niggers and with many whites, too. I am sure, as would be, but not with a nigger like you. I am proud of it," and I was. And so say I still, in this year of grace 1901, I am proud of a president who can recognize such a man as Booker Washington as the equal of the best of any color or creed. I suppose that was the feeling of the presidents of 11,000,000 American citizens to dinner and he is right about it. The only people who will object are Defective Page those who don't like a race that always fought for and never against the flag, and always did and will vote the Republican ticket. Selah! PRIVATE DALZELL Cambridge, Mass. Oct. 18—(Special) —President Roosevelt's bold stand in dinner Booker T. Washington at the Executive table yesterday receives the unanimous commendation of Harvard professors. They look with high mindfulness upon the question and condone the hasty criticism of the South. They president did wrong and who think the President did wrong as jaundice-eyed and narrow viewed. President Eliot, when asked to sum elt. up the opinion of Harvard, replied with characteristic terseness: "Last commencement Booker Washington received the greatest Booker Washington receive the greatest, or we could bestup upon him—an honorary degree. By that we expressed what we think of him." Booker Washington is one of the scientific school, himself from Kentucky, ran his fingers through his gray Andrew Jackson poudour and laughed. "When Mr. Washington was here I sat with him on the platform and in front of the Booker Washington is a man, and a great man. Were I in Roosevelt's place I would have done the same. Were I in Roosevelt's place I would feel an intense pity for those who deceived me. Professor Charles Elliot Norton said: 'As far as the question of citizenship is concerned, Roosevelt's action is eminently just and right. In regard to speech of the question, I will not speak. "The President cannot look at citizens in regard to their color. No distinction can be drawn between white and black. A black man of high attainments is worthy of recognition. His color is blind to it. It merit is commendable only because of its possessor's color, it is not valued for its intrinsic worth. "It pleases me that the President has given this recognition to a deserving man. When Booker T. Washington who have lost this distinction him at my table and should be here again this winter I shall again hope for the honor." Continued n 6th Col. THE APPEAL KEeps IN FRONT BECAUSE: 6-It is the organ of ALL Afro-Americans. 5-It is not controlled by any ring conique. 6-It asks no support but the people. COLORLINE Used As A Sermon Text by Chicago Pastors. Booker T. Washington a guest at dinner at the White House formed the text on which at least four Chicago ministers constructed their sermons yesterday. They were as of one mind President Roosevelt and in the foreword with which they pointed to the error in Southern criticism. "Theodore Roosevelt is president of the whole American people, and he gave a practical illustration of that fact," said Bishop Samuel Fallows. "It is a welcome herald of the days when men shall be measured solely by the quality of their intellects and their morals," was the argument of Dr. H. W. Thomas. "The act points to the early recognition of God and the brotherhood of man," was the comment of the Rev. A. L. Murray. "Mr. Washington was at the president's table not as a Negro, but as an American citizen," declared the Rev. A. J. Saran. "PRESIDENT IS JUSTIFIED." Speaking of "The Unity of the Human Race," Bishon Fallowes said: "President Roosevelt has shown his Christian manhood in the invitation he gave Booker T. Washington to dine at the White House, act on the part of the president, but if it had been an official one he would have been justified in asking this disguised Afro-American scholar, educator to break bread with him. "Theodore Roosevelt is president of the whole American people. It is absurd to fault with him for giving him the facts of fact. It is ungenerous, to say the least, for any one in the southern portion of the country to criticise him when the reason of the friendly interview with White House is the "sober second thought of his critics will be in the right direction. The president has committed neither a crime nor a blunder. "The overstatement of sentiment of the nation is with him." Dr. Thomas took for his subject, "The Greater Man; the Greater God; and in the course of his sermon said: "That time is near when man will be measured, not by the accidents of wealth, or race, or color, but by the mind. The man who has been left to this country to bring forth the highest interpretation of the equality of man as the son of God. The day is coming when the greatness of man will not be gauged by the in- herited titles of royalty, nor by the millions of money, however gotten, and earned, but by the earnest and earnest endeavor. Then crowns of honor will rest on the heads of the honest, telling fathers and mothers, the millions unknown to earthly fame, but who have nobly done their work." UMEN OF RACIAL PEACE. At Quinn Chapel, M. E. church, Thirth and Dearborn streets, the Rev. A. L. Murray said: "While some of the A. L. S. press is criticizing the act of the chief magistrate of our country, we see in it Christian evidence of coming peace between the races and a recognition of the brotherhood of man. The act itself only portrays to the world the inward principles of a pure and upright man, and it has without doubt welded to him the better class of white people of this country and brought him the right to live in peace and race. Lynching and mob violence will soon be cellled in the principle of the brotherhood of man." CITIZEN AND NOT NEGRO. At Quinn Chapel, twenty-four street and Washabue avenue, the Rev. A. L. Murray said: "Booker Washington nor any other intelligent Negro of this country cares not one lota about so-called 'social equality.' We believe the president invited Mr. Washington to his table not as a Negro, but as an American citizen, because he desired to consult on matters of national importance." "We hall this action by the president as an omen of the coming of that day when we shall neither be favored nor hindered because of the color of our skin. All that the Negroes of this country want to be chance, and I beseach you that we so deport and conduct ourselves that fair-minded men, who are willing to forget the color of a man's skin and measure him by his character and fitness, will find in us no cause for complaint." INDORSED BY DOWIE "Johnny came to DOWIE to take a stand in defense of the president in his discourse yesterday." "The president has the right to entertain whom he please," said he, "and I indorse the stand he has taken. Prejudice against the Negro race has got to go, and I hope our new president not only will be president of the white race, but of the black as well." UPHELD Continued from 6th Col. the Evening Sunday before last night before both Booker T. Washington, the worthy and much respected colored man who is at the head of the Tuskegee-Institute, as a guest at his private table in the White House. This has caused some indignation among Southerners and in Southern newspapers. They declare that it sets out adamantly against dining at the White House' is an outrage, and that the President cannot expect to make friends in the South if he continues to be guilty of such conduct, together with divers and sundry $2.40 PER YEAR. remarks to the effect that this is a 'white man's country.' "Yet all that the President really seems to have done was an act of courting in asking Mr. Washington to sit down with him, and then to have talk with him. As Boehner T. Washington is an entirely reputable man, as well as an interesting one, the President doubtless enjoyed his company. Many Presidents in the past have had far less reputable and agreeable men with him. Mr. Roosevelt shall have no worse ones among his private guests, the country will have no cause for complaint. "The right of the President to dine with anyone he may please to have with him is entirely his own affair, and Theodore Roosevelt is not a likely friend and company, black or white, for his business or world companionship. The rumpus which some indiscreet Southerners are trying to raise because he has been hospitable to a colored man is a foolish display of both manners and temper." New York, Get. 19.—The Tribune says: "The Southern politicians who criticise President Roosevelt's action in inviting Prof. Booker T. Washington to be asked to raise the question whether of the Tuskegee Institute or himself is really the more deserving and genuine friend of the South." In December, 1858, the President of the United States and the Governor of Alabama were received and entertained at Tuskegee Institute by Booker T. Washington. In writing of this visit the correspondent of the New Orleans Presidential host, said or hostesses could have been more courteous in attending to and more thoughtful in forestalling every want of their guests than were these refined and educated Africans during all the time of our presidency. This was in keeping with the practice at Tuskegee Institute. In the last ten years hundreds of distinguished white men, from the South and North, have sat at Booker T. Washington's table. Booker T. Washington has the host and there has been no protest. In the last five years Booker T. Washington has attended three banquets given by a conspicuous Chicago club, and on two occasions he has had dinner with a guest at banquets in nearly every large city in the country. He has been received with courtesy also by the Governor and Legislature of Alabama. Yet, on these occasions, he has been a guest at clubs or Governor or Legislature of proclamation "break down the social barriers between the races." Nevertheless, the act of the new president of the United States, in reelection 2012, has Washington at the White House a few days ago, is being described by many Southern newspapers as "an outrage" and "a declaration of war." Of these Southern newspapers, "the United States may dine with a colored man at a colored man's home and not depart from the strictest lines of propriety; but if he invites the most distinguished colored man in the country to dine with a colored man in the guilty of an "outrage" in other words, the President of the United States may accept the hospitality of a colored man, but he may not return it. This is absurd. The President receives a letter from the interment of Booker T. Washington in ashes as President of all the people. There was no protest when Mr. Washington advised the President to adopt a new policy as to new appointments of officers, and no protest when such appointments of white men were made in accordance with his advice. The line was drawn only when the President invited Mr. Washington to dine with him. From the end of the civil war, we are living at a time when it is the duty of the President of the United States to receive hospitably the representatives of all nations—white, black, or yellow, brown, or red, and yet, when the President in the performance of his duty receives hospitably the chosen representative of 8,000,000 native Americans, there are those who pretend to see in this act of patriotism the "declaration of war" on some American institution or institutions. Nonsense!—Chicago Inter Ocean. Philadelphia. Col. 19—The Ledger this morning says: this morning says: "Because President Roosevelt saw fit in his good judgment to invite Booker T. Washington to dinner, strong words were delivered to Mr. Washington is a colored man who enjoys the universal respect of all people in this country, black and white, on account of attainments, character and intelligence, and he him to be his private guest, and did not attempt to force the companionship of a colored man upon to whom the association could possibly be distasteful, and of citizens who would favor a narrower, great impressiveness. But, considered in any light, the invitation is not a subject for criticism. Booker T. Washington is one of the most potable citizens of the country, and worthy he is.

During the excitement some one telegramed him that the man was dead, but when the latter appeared on the scene Cash was conscious.

SIS HOPKINS At the Grand Opera House, St. Paul. "Sis Hopkins," that pretty pastoral comedy drama which is now in its third season, with Miss Rose Melville in the title role, comes to the Grand Rapids theater this week and this is really remarkable play that Mr. J. R. Stirling, under whose direction the piece has become one of the most popular and best-known comedy films of the past decade, the public had it entirely recast by the author of the stage version of "David Harum." It was then sent out for last season and brilliantly successful beyond all anticipation. This season Mr. Harum takes a role in a fight in response to requests for time to age in different parts of the country who wanted to give "Sis" to their patrons once more before Miss Melville takes up the new play which has been adapted by the actors in the stage today. Many of the actors are known and popular with theatre goers. The story of "Sis Hopkins" is a simple one, natural and free from the liberties of modern society plays because the homely country people of Posey are known and popular with theatre goers. The story of "Sis Hopkins" is an awkward country girl, the daughter of Pa Hopkins, and she dresses in that queer, old-fashioned stocking of gingham pinafore, striped stocking and a funny little red side combs. A railroad wants to get the right of way through THE APPEAL: A NATIONAL AFRO-AMERICAN NEWSPAPER the farm, and an agent comes along to secure the necessary papers. His efforts to this and give Sis her first introduction to the farm is a revelation to her and in a most pathetic scene she announces her determination to go away and learn to dress "an lie, an lie" like other people." She returns it is as a young woman of color and a father has lost his mind and does not recognize her. She slips away and returns clad in her old clothing as "Sis" and slinging her old father's favorite dress. She is recognized by recognition. The character of "Sis" is distinctive and quaint and original with Miss Melville. Her mannerisms, sayings and her teering walk make character one of the most interesting on the stage. When she is asked to sign away her portion of the farm for the winter, she has become famous from one end of A BRILLIANT IDEA 1—Tom is so absent-minded that he just fix them in his hatband, so! 1—Tom is so absent-minded that he always forgets to mail my letters; so I'll just fix them in his hatband, so! the country to the other: 'You can't never make *nothin*! don't *ninthin* for it!'

Intends Taking Precautions to Prevent Post-Mortem Robbery The uniformed functionary who is in command of a袋 of bellboys at a local hotel takes pride in the mouthful of jewelry he displays every time he grins. He had bad luck with his teeth in earlier life, and several ivory have been replaced with gold fillings. An acquaintance, one of the prominent regular boarders at the hotel, noticing the animated show case the older day, observed: "I am afraid, captain, that after you "I am afraid, captain, that after you remain in your grave. Some one will dig you up for that gold in your mouth. You'll be worth more dead than you are alive." Rastus laughed so heartily at this that the jewelry display dazzled the eyes of the guest.

Ouer Result of Jersey Justice. Here is a little story of the thrift of one of those stern dispensers of "Jersey justice" that adorn the bench of that state, says an exchange. A couple of months ago a gentleman living near Paterson was sued by a butcher in the sum of $350, though he held receipts of the butcher for the full amount of his alleged indebtedness. The resident of suburban Paterson was waited upon by the sheriff and hailed before a justice. Before the judge, who was a personal friend and showed him his receipts, the judge looked the documents over and realized that the case must be thrown out of court. "I'll look after the matter," said the judge. Some days later the gentleman who had been sued asked the judge about the case. "Oh," said the judge, "threw the case out of court and made sure I pay the costs—and, by the way," put the bill bearing the butcher's signature for its payment from his pocket, "I see you are paying two cents less for leo chops that I do—and that ham is but 22 cents a pound, while we pay 23 for it down there. I'm going to / trade with that son of a gun after this." Put not thy soul in Satan's hands, in justice. Aq u neege xoeq aj aeku oj adoq Cursed is he who sins in hope.—Clark. FAR OFF.

See vg OR ET ee TT eo Directions, George Bird Grinnell describes in ‘the Century what he calls the Crown ‘of the Continent of North America: Far away in northwestern Montana, hidden from view by clustering moun- tain-peaks, lies an unmapped corner the Crown of the Continent. The water from the crusted snowdritt ‘which caps the peak of a lofty moun- tain there ‘trickles into. tiny ills, which hurry along north, south, east ‘and west, and growing into rivers, at Jast pour their currents into three ‘seas. From this mountain-peak. the Paclile and the Arelle oceans and the Gulf of Mexico receive each its tribute, No words can describe: the grandeur ‘and majesty of these mountains, and even photographs seem hopelessly to wart and Dolittle the most Impressive peaks. The fact that it ts altogether unknown, the beauty of its scenery, its varied and unusual fauna, and the opportunities it offers for mountain- climbing, give the region a wonderful attraction for the Jover of uature. Be- ‘yond the head of the lower lakes wag- fons cannot 40, and the traveler who ‘wishes to reach the heads of any of ‘he streams must leave his wagon and start into the mountain with a pack- train. This means that all his posses- sions—his food, his bedding, and all his camp furniture—must be lashed on the backs of horses and mules, and 80 carried through the dense forests and up the steep mountain sides. This is a, pleasant mode of traveling, though it is slow and entails much more labor than traveling in a wagon. It has, however, the great advantage that it makes one independent. With 4 pack train the explorer ean go al- most where he pleases. Neither dense brush, close-standing timber, nor steep hills furrowed by great ravines can stop him; wherever a man can ride, a pack-horse ean follow. COCAINE FIENDS.
