WILLIAM HOWARD TAFT The Republican party made no mistake when William Howard Taft was renominated for the presidency. He is a man of the people, his public record is clean and he stands for policies which mean the continued progress of the Nation. He deserved a renomination because of the great achievements of his administration. He has shown sober judgment and broad statesmanship. The Afro-Americans have a good friend in Mr. Taft. He inherited his open sympathy for the race from his father, Judge Alphonzo Taft, than whom the Afro-American never had a better friend. A few years ago Mr. Taft was appointed a trustee of the Jeannes fund for the education of the poor Afro-Americans in the country districts of the South, and his acceptance of the trust is an evidence of his sympathy for the poor and downtrodden. In his public utterances, President Taft has denounced lynching in the strongest terms; he has approved higher education as well as industrial training; he has paid high tribute to the race for its great progress in education and industry during the past forty years, and he has expressed his deep sympathy for the sufferings of the Afro-American from the contemptuous insults of white men not his equal in intelligence and devotion to duty. To President Taft must be given credit for having appointed an Afro-American to the highest office yet obtained by one of the race. He did this when he named William H. Lewis Assistant Attorney General of the United States. The President has shown his interest in the race in so many ways that there can be no doubt about the matter. The great body of the Afro-Americans are Republicans, true to the party, and when November comes they'll cast their votes for William Howard Taft. --- W. H. TAP I, Who Was Renominated on the First Ballet by the Republican National Convention at Chicago, WASHINGTON HON. JAMES S. SHERMAN, Renominated for Vice President by republicans at Chicago—Great Friend "THE COLORED TROOPS FOUGHT NOBLY." In reporting a great battle during the slave holders' rebellion in which the Union army was victorious, a famous general said: "The colored troops fought nobly." In the great battle for the Republican nomination for President the other day the Afro-American delegates in the convention acted nobly and made the renaming of President Taft possible. It was made possible by the unwavering loyalty of the great body of the Afro-American delegates who held the balance of power. Although inducements of every kind were held out to them to desert the President, they spurned the offers and voted as they were instructed, for Wm. H. Taft. The editor of THE APPEAL, in an interview early in June, denied the stories which were being circulated by the enemies of the race that the Afro-American delegates were venal and would desert Taft when the crisis came. Attention was called to their high standing in their respective communities, and the prediction was made that they would never betray their trusts, and to their everlasting credit be it said, that they have proved faithful. In addition to their great work for their country in voting for the renomination of President Taft, they have rendered a great service to their people by demonstrating to the world that their honor is unpurchaseable. --- Two years ago Champion Jack Johnson celebrated the 4th of July by licking Jim Jeffreys, and he had another celebration last Thursday by doing the same thing to Jim Flynn. He had licked Flynn once before and he ought to have known better. We do not care a rap for Jack Johnson and abhor pugilism, but it is pleasing to know that in the "manly art of self-defense," as they used to designate it, as well as in many other lines, a man's ability cannot be absolutely determined by the color of his skin. Our sanctum sanctorium is in close proximity to a daily newspaper and on the occasion of the two victories of Johnson we could tell of the progress of the rights by the shouts or the silence of the crowds that surrounded the aforesaid newspaper office as the returns of the fights were announced. Of course the crowds were made up almost entirely of men of the complexion of Jeffreys and Flynn, and they were mighty poor loosers. Had they been genuine sportsmen they would have cheered the winner of the coveted title, "the best man in the world," but they were as silent as clams when Johnson won. We were away up on the 5th floor, but their silence reached us and was music to our ears, for it told us that as Burns says, "A man's a man for a' that and a' that' even if he is black. SAUCE FOR THE GANDER, SAUCE FOR THE GOOSE. Mrs. Mary Dubal of Birmingham, N. Y., is believed to be the first suffragist in the United States to be given a penitentiary sentence for husband-beating. She was arrested on a warwant obtained by Mr. Dubal, who complained that in a fit of rage she gave him a sound beating. City Judge Albert Hotchkiss declared that if women desired men's prerogatives, they should also have men's punishments. He always dealt severely with wifebeaters, he said, and accordingly sentenced her to three months in the penitentiary. Now, ladies, will you be good? "Tis said on good authority that crop conditions in the Northwestern states are the best in fifteen years. It is hoped that this is so and that the present high prices will be lowered. The hay is so thick and heavy that it will not fall down after it is cut. A strenuous effort was made at the Democratic National convention to have a plank inserted in the platform disfranchising the Afro-Americans, and yet there will be some boneheads who will vote the Democratic ticket at the coming election. The Democrats have nominated Wilson and Marshall. Taft and Sherman will beat them to a frazzle. Like the famous whiskey: The nomination of Wilson—that's all. Taft will be elected.

There are more Afro-Americans in the service of the United States Government, under the Taft Administration, than ever before in the history of the country. President Taft Gives Race Highest Office Yet Attained. To President Taft is due the credit for having appointed a colored man to the highest office ever held by one of the race in the government service. When Mr. Taft named Hon. William H. Lewis, of Massachusetts, Assistant Attorney General of the United States, he did a thing unprecedented in the annals of the nation, for this is a near-cabinet position. An Afro-American's Name on All U. S. Paper Currency and Bonds. Paper Currency and Bonds. One of the most important offices in the Treasury Department, that of Registrar of the Treasury, has been continuously filled by colored men, under Republican appointment, for more than a quarter of a century, while under President during that time no Afro-American considered worthy to occupy that position. The place is now held by Hon. J. C. Napier, of Tennessee, who was appointed by President Taft. The importance of this office is indicated by the face that the signature of the Register is attached to all paper currency and bonds issued by the Government. Some Others in High Places. Among the other colored men holding good places in the government services, who were appointed by President Taft or at his suggestion, or retained by him are the following: H. W. Furnish, of Indiana, Minister to Haiti; Dr. W. D. Crum, of South Carolina, Minister to Liberia; Charles W. Anderson, of New York, Collector of Internal Revenue, New York City; Jo seph E. Lee, Collector of Internal Revenue, Jacksonville, Fla.; Henry Lincoln Johnson, of Georgia, Recorder of Deeds, District of Columbia; R. W. Tyler, of Ohio, Auditor for the Navy Department; Whitefield McKinley, Collector of Customs, Washington; Charles A. Cottrell, of Ohio, Collector of Customs, Hawaii; Robert H. Tervell, Judge Municipal Court, D. C.; J. C. Rock, Receiver, Land Once, Little Rock, Mo.; W. Allison, Receiver, Land Office, Jackson, Miss.; Nathan Alexander, Register Land Office, Montgomery, Ala.; W. C. Matthes, Assistant U. S. District Attorney, Boston, Mass.; S. L. Williams, Assistant U. S. District Attorney, Chicago, Ill.; James A. Cobb, Special U. S. District Attorney, Washington; Gen. Robert Smalls, Collector of Customs, Beaufort, S. C.; Mrs. E. P. Booze, Postmaster, Mound Bayon, Miss.; Thomas Richardson, Postmaster, Port Gibson, Miss.; W. T. Penon, Supervisor of Indian and Johnson Forest Service, Department of Interior etc. The list is not complete, but it is long enough to show that the Afro-American has not been overlooked in the matter of presidential appointments. The highest salary paid an Afro-American is received by the Envoy Extraordinary and Minister Plenipotentiary of the United States to Halti, whose salary is $10,000 per annum. A number of government officials receive from $2,500 to $5,000 per year. Clerks are paid from $300 to $1,800. The total number of Afro-Americans in all branches of the service of the United States Government is in round numbers 15,000, and the aggregate annual salaries paid amount to nearly $10,000,000.

COLORED RACE HAS HIGH IDEALS Said President Taft in Recent Address. Believes that Race Needs Men in Learned Professions. College Education Essential to Full Development. Every once in a while you will meet a man, whose vision is a bit clouded, who talks about the waste of money in teaching men of your race the curriculum of an academic institution. Instead of sending them to the university, the claim has been made that they should be sent to manual training institutions. Such a man has never thought deeply on the subject and does not understand that as a race which is striving upward and onward you need many who shall be leaders—men who shall figure in the learned professions, many of them as physicians, as lawyers, and especially as ministers. Higher Education Essential to Race. Higher Education Essential to Race Now it is highly essential that all of the men of your race and any other race who are to occupy the learned professions shall be equipped with a complete education and those of us who are to the coming of your race to this country are only responsible for furnishing the means by which they shall lift themselves, (Hearty applause.) It is essential that we should encourage those who aspire to be the leaders of your race as far as possible and furnish the means for higher education such as are supplied by Howard University, by Fisk University and other institutions established for the higher education of your race. Now these people who are saying that the waste of money on that subject is not worth the on subject, for I have looked into the amount of money that is invested in those institutions and there is not anywhere enough money to furnish the education that is needed by the colored people of this country.

The President of the United States can have no more sacred function than to speak words of encouragement and hope to assist your own efforts. Fate in the past has not been kind to you, and the whole American people has the highest obligation of trusteeship and guardianship for your uplift. "I say to the colored men and women of this country that hard as your lot has been and hard as the road is likely to be, it will be a road forward if you able by your consciences and by ideals of self-custard, and that you will attain a condition, you hardly dream of today."—Address of President Taft, to Afro-American citizens of Atlanta, Ga., at Bethel Church. --- "THE PRESIDENT * WEEK'S RECORD IN MINNESOTA'S CAPITAL.

Washington, D. C. last Saturday evening. There was a large number of the ladies of the Twin Cities present, who had a most enjoyable time. Whist was played and the first prize was won by Miss M. Moore of Madison Jackson son of Prospect Park. Elegant refreshments were served. Many friends of Miss Margaree Adams in the city have shown their sympathy by showering her with flowers, fruits and dainties of various kinds. Even out of the city she is remembered. Last week Mrs. H. E. Margaree Adams of Duluth, sent a huge bouquet of lovely carnations, and Mr. R. Davis, of the Dellwood Club, White Bear Lake, sent a large mess of croppies. These kind remembrances are gratefully received and fully appreciated. While much interest will naturally be taken in the business sessions of the coming Negro National Educational Congress as there will be some of the brainset men and women of the district, the grand reception and ball which we attended at the Auditorium on the evening of July 16, holds the greatest interest from a social stand point, as it promises to surpass either of the two former occasions, when we have had this, St. Paul's grandest and largest place of public entertainment. There are many boxes to be bought and the large size of the immense waxed canvas for the dancers. HOT TIME FOR DELINQUENTS. We clip the following from one of our exchanges to warn our delinquent subscribers what a hot time they will have if they fail to pay their newspaper bills. The same fate awaits advertisers. "An editor who will starvation was being escorted to Heaven by an angel sent for that purpose. "May I just glance in at the other place before we ascend to eternal happiness?" So they went below and skimming it, the editor said. It so happened that the angel lost traction the editor and went around Hades hunting him. He found him sitting by an enormous furnace, fanning himself and gazing with rapture upon a crowd of lost souls in the fire. Over the furnace was a sign bearing the words, "The angel, subscribers." So said the angel, "going now. 'You go on,' said the editor, "I'm not going. This is heaven enough for me," If you haven't lately visited George Davis' Restaurant and Dairy Lunch. No. 154 E.

The plans for the coming Negro National Education Congress, which will come to St. Paul, are 19th inclusive, are progressing finely. There was a meeting of the local committee at the old capitol last Monday evening, at which much routine work was done. Reports from a number of states of federal governors appointed by the several governors gives a total of delegates approximating 300, and they include some of the best men and women in each state. A letter received this week from J. Sis Harris, president of the Congress, states that among those who have accepted places on the program are: Reverdy R. Cansom, of New York, editor of the A. M. E. Review, one of the most distinguished orators in America. Edward Attaway, president of Edward Waters College, Jacksonville, Fla., an educator and orator of national renown. Prof. E. L. Blackshear, president of Prairie Lake State Normal and Industrial College, Prairie View, Texas. Dr. R. K. Williams, president of State College, Orangesburg, S. C., a graduate of Harvard and West Point and one of the leading educators of the country. J. Thomkins, the great white plague specialist. The plan of entertainment as now arranged is to have each of the churches in the city to give a reception and program on Monday evening, with numbers on the program to be submitted to delegates or distinguished visitors. Wednesday evening, July 17th, a grand boat excursion on the Mississippi will be given for the delegates and visitors. Thursday evening the delegates and visitors will be entertained in Minneapolis, plans not fully arranged. Friday evening has no decided program arranged for at this time, but will be arranged later on. The greatest interest is centered in the entertainment at the Auditorium, and former entertainments. All that is necessary is for every one to boost to make this the biggest occasion ever in St. Paul.

It will be well for the very anxious to get on the list soon, as they will be able to see their intention of taking boxes. So get busy or blame yourself if you can't get what you want. Persons who are desirous of housing and boarding delegates and visitors to the coming Negro National Educational Congress are requested to send their names and addresses, and to send a letter to Mr. Orii C. Hall, 768 aqrue street, or to Dr. J. R. White, 15 Stees block, corner Seventh and Jackson streets. Another excellent meeting of the local general committee for the Negro National Educational Congress was held at the old Capitol at Monroe evening. Considerable business was transacted and much enthusiasm evinced. Everything is going on fine. The next meeting of the committee will be held on Monday evening. Remember there are 44 private boxes to be sold for the coming grand affair at the Auditorium in honor of the Congress. Make up your box parties now.
