A FEARLESS EXPONENT OF RIGHT AND JUSTICE THE TULSA STAR OUR SUBSCRIPTION LIST MAKES A VALUABLE MEDIUM FOR ADVERTISING "Principles, Not Parties," Should Be The Watchword of Every Negro Voter Prominent Citizen Advises Colored Voters to Disregard Parties and Vote For Men Capttain Jackson Gives Reason For Independent Movement Vol. 2, No. 20 "Principles, N Prominent Citizen Colored Voters Parties and Capttain Jackson Giv pendent N Tulsa, Okla. February 5, 1914. Dear Editor: So many men of my race in Tulsa in the last three or four weeks have asked me for information in regard to putting a straight republican ticket for city offices in the field this spring. I only wish to say to the colored voters that as I see it (I can only speak for myself) I am going to vote for the man. The time has come with us as a powerless race that we must do as white men do in this sense, as you know. When Abraham Lincoln died all the virtues of those glorious principles left so far as you and I are concerned. My advice now to all col CAPT. T. D. JACKSON ored men is to forget this republican party isms and be independent as a voter. Be your own judge as to the fitness of the men you vote for. Whoever the white voters as a mass make their choice, let him be ours. What party he comes from must not be considered by us as colored voters. Let's help build up Tulsa, and in doing so we can help wonderfully by concentrating all of our votes to that class of white men who are trying to uplift Tulsa and have done so all along up to now. It has been my fortune in life to fill nearly all of the offices in a first class city f or years, and I want to say to the colored people in Tulsa that so far as we are concerned this administration has, in my judgment, given the taxpayers of this city as good service as any republican government I ever saw since the death of Lincoln. I am proud that I can say this and tell the truth. Now if you will look at this proposition as I see it you will not have to go to the polls next April and stand out in the cold rain all day waiting for one negro to write the constitution of Oklahoma and he stay there all day just to keep you from enjoying the rights that he and all the white voters enjoy. You must vote for the people who you look to for work, let him be a democratic or an independent candidate. By doing so you will --- SUCCESSOR TO THE MUSKOGEE STAR TULSA, OKLAHOMA, SATURDAY, MARCH 7, 1914 have no trouble in voting. You must as a race in Oklahoma vote with the powers to be. By doing so you will bury this old saying that the white man knows who we as a race are going to vote for to morrow by the color of the skin or the curl of our hair. Now, my brother, this is common political horse sense. If you should live in this world as long as I have and if you should not in Oklahoma as long as I have (2 years) you would say I am right. Don't mind what your so-called educated orators may tell you in the contrary. The woods are talke of educated colored men and you may say we have our share of them in Tulsa) who are ignorant in this sense, and the way some of them live and act and treat their brothers and sisters in church and in society confirm this thought. Now my friends I am no leader and don't wish to be quoted as such. Too much education in the head of the wrong man is a pullback to the progress of the colored people in Tulsa. It is an ignorant man in my judgment who will call his friends and induce them to help him to create any organization for social or business purposes on Sunday. God has told us in six days we should do all manner of work. If you should be induced to trample His law under sinful feet of ignorant men you can't lead this unfortunate race of ours in America to success. I don't wish to embarrass you with this, Mr. Editor, but if we would support The Tulsa Star and carry its advice into our churches, into our business, into our societies, into our politics, into the coming city election we would find our conditions much better. We need The Star to help the Tulsa World boost Tulsa. I must say too right here we have been treated very nicely under the present administration from Mayor Wooden down to the chief and policemen. CAPT. T. D. JACKSON. 21 North Cincinnati Avenue. Charging that he entered her room last Monday night and after beating her severely with a revolver and inflicting knife wounds threatened to kill her, Lillian Lagway Thursday filed a charge of assault with intent to kill in the office of the county attorney against Sam Wilson, alias "Coon-Can Slim." Cutting, shooting and "beating up" is getting to be a kind of habit out in the East End. When men are not shooting or cutting each other, women are cutting or shooting them. The same holds true with women of the same class. This condition exists because no serious effort has been made to eliminate the class that causes it. However, Judge Clark of the police court has inaugurated a vigorous campaign against this class of people and good results are expected. Evangelist M. H. Lyon A Serious Reflection On Men of East End. Petty Jealousy. Envy and Personalities are Too Much in Evidence It is a sad reflection upon the negro business, professional and leading men of our race here in Tulsa that they give so little encouragement and support to the local Business League. There seems to be a spirit of revengefulness and spite, of personal amosities and private contentions manifest to clog and hinder its growth and success. Tulsa, with its segregated negro populace, and having in it some very creditable business establishments controlled and patronized by them, should set the example for the entire state in having the most progressive local league in this commonwealth. The interests and purposes of the Negro Business League is to inspire race loyalty and inculcate the principle of helping each other in business, trades and professions, and in this way not only build up prosperous business concerns which make places and opportunities for our own men and women, but they lend inspiration to our children to follow in our wake. Why not drop all this petty strife and revenge and come together, with a united effort to make our local league a chamber of commerce from which all may draw the spirit of race loyalty and development, along the commercial and development line? Let the lawyer, the doctor, the preacher, the tailor, the merchant, the editor, the restauranter, the miller, the dressmaker, the druggist, the laborer, and indeed every man and woman who is seeking for the best in life for self and family, join hounds in the great movement to build a race and people that will stand the equal of any nation on earth. "Only Twenty Six" A birthday dinner was served last Sunday at the residence of Mrs. B. S. Cleaver, wife of Deputy Sherif Cleaver, in honor of her sister, Mrs. Lucy Cole. The event marked the twenty-sixth anniversary of Mrs. Cole, notwithstanding there were forty candles on the big cake, all of which was devoured by the sixteen or more guests who had responded to Mrs. Cleaver's invitation. Mrs. Cole knew nothing of the party until she arrived at her sister's home Sunday evening and found all in readiness. She vigorously protested to the reporter for The Star that she was only twenty six, and that the forty candles represented a joke Subscription $1,00 Per Year Negro Voter Senia Johnson Convicted Woman Who Killed The Wife of The Man She Loved. Must Serve 25 Years in Prison. Mc Coy to be Tried Later. Twenty five years in the state penitentiary is the penalty fixed by the jury in the Serbia Johnson murder case, which came to a close in the district court room here late Thursday evening. Charli Mc Coy, husband of Senia Johnson's victim, who is held in the county jail here for conspiracy with the Johnson woman to murder his wife, will be tried at a later term of court. Martha Mc Coy, wife of Charlie Mc Coy, was shot and killed at the Orentz Lake Park first summer by the Johnson woman who it is claimed, followed by suggestions of Mc Coy, who took her to go with him to the park, and if his wife interfered, to kill her. The defendant, represented by Martin and Roberts, tried hard to establish justifiable grounds for the killing and the convicted woman made an excellent witness for herself, but the jury returned a verdict of "guilty." Senia Johnson throughout the trial has shown no signs of remorse.

Try Grandmama's Recipe of Bage and Sulphur and Nobody Will Know. Almost everyone knows that Bage Tea and Sulphur, properly compounded, brings back the natural color and texture to the hair when faded, streaked or gray; also adds dandruff, itching scalp and stope falling hair. Years ago the only way to get the mixture was to make it at home, which is money and troubleome. Nowadays we simply ask at any drug store for "Wyeth's Flage and Hulphur Hair Remedy." You will get a large bottle for about 50 cents. Everybody uses this old, famous recipe, because no one can possibly tell that you darkened your hair, as it does it so naturally and evenly. You dampen a sponge or soft brush with it and draw this through your hair, taking one small strand at a time; by morning the gray hair disappears, and after another application or two, your hair becomes beautifully dark, thick and glossy and you look years younger. —Adv.

"It was home three years since I rushed Bunny Emma, her living in Yorkshire and me in Ohio but when she wilted me to come and spend the month of March because she had something important to say to me, my natural curiosity awakened me, and I peeked my trunk and went. "Where's Cynthia?" I asked, son am I had slept Emma and John. "That's what I write you to come about, Lady," says Emma. "She won't come home." "But you write me she had gone to New York so to attend her, and was coming home on Washington's birthday, I answered. And now about that your man of here, Fred Huntley?" "Then the truth came out. Cynthia and wilt she wasn't coming home for a long time to come and she immeiately of Fred lived so wait for her he could wait and if he didn't he neeessn't. She had an attack of art nasty and was living in a hall bedroom in New York and forcing her own laundry, which is what art brings one to. And Emma knowing how I'd always had a powerful influence over Cynthia, wanted me to go to New York and bring her home. "How about Fred?" I asked. "Fred just mooned around towns and didn't speak to anyone. I gathered there had been some sort of quarrel, so I thought it hurt to say nothing but to go to New York as soon as possible. And a couple of mornings later I was knocking at Cynthy's door on the top floor of a filthy dark treatment place near Washington Square. "Come in,' said Cynthy. "Why, Aunt Lily, whatever bring you here?" "I'll tell you later, Cynthy,' says I. "Meanwhile, have you got a bite of lunch for me?" "Cynthy made tea over the gas and we ate sausage sandwiches together. Cynthy looking at me curious-like all the while. "I sure do love sausage sandwiches, especially them fortn kind." V. G. "Had a Party That Afternoon." says I, and I see a look in Cynthy's eyes that told me I had got home. I forgot to say that the tiny room was all fixed up with hangings and sofa pillows, and the walls was plastered with Cynthy's pictures. "Sold any of 'em, my dear?" I asked. "Not yet, auntie," says Cynthy, "but I expect to soon. The public isn't educated in art matters, you know. If I chose to give them what they wanted I could sell them all. Now what brings you here, Aunt Lidy? "I'm tired of the humdrum of domestick life," I told her. 'Your Uncle Abe gets on my nerves. I want to live my own life and obey the impulses of my soul. That's' why I come to you.' "Cynthy stared at me as if I was an animal. Then she comes up and throws her arms round my neck and kisses me, and I know she's the same Cynthy. "We had a party that afternoon, the queerest folks. All the men wore jaded looks and loose black ties, and the women was dressed any old way. The things they talked about I'd be ashamed to tell you, but I didn't look feazed. "Auntie," says Cynthy, when we were alone again, I don't know whether you'd care to have dinner with me at the Eclectic club tonight. It costs twenty-five cents and there's a discussion afterward." "What's it about?" I asks. "It's called 'Should Women Have Children?'" says Cynthy, looking at me. "Why, that suits me to the ground," I answers. "I've always wanted to know What's the answer?" "Well, says Cynthy, 'some will say TULSA OELA STAR you and some no. and it will be a very interesting debate. "It was. I was feeling sort of empty after the dinner, but that talk filled me all night. It never heart anything like it. "I'm afraid you must be shocked hurtle with your old-dressed ways, says Cynthia when we won't shock of the art people and got home. "Shocked!" I answered. "Why Cynthia, I feel the art using in my homes. That's the sort of message that the world needs. And to think of the years we've warned with your Uncle Lee and that Poor Dill. Fred Boden, who don't know art from a turpentine. Why I'm glad he's hatching after that Larry Brown." "Cynthia seemed quite shocked what you meant, annie!" she cried. So I said her now Larry and Fred went walking out on Sundays and how the neighbors was hurt of speculative about em. Cynthia didn't say much more that night. I slept on the door, on five side pillows. I didn't like it, but she never knew. "Cynthia didn't seem quite so bright the next few days. Every time she took me out I'd ask her disappointed like if that was the best she could show me. I said I wanted to hear a real artistic debate. I didn't want to know if women should have children. I told her, but how many, and why. The means I put down was terrible. "Aunty," said Cynthia, at last, taking me by the shoulders, tell me honestly, ain't you shocked at all?" "Why no," says I. "I think it's lovely to have the artistic spirit. My, what do we care about those poor creatures at home?" "But, ammy, I—I do care about them," says Cynthy, strangling a soh. "But we've flung 'em overboard." I says, executing a Pa Soul about the room. "We're the army of the future, Cynthy, the army of martyrs. We've left home and husband and sweetheart for art's sake. Whon're we going to the club again?" "But don't father and mother mind me being artistic!" asks Cynthy. "They love it, I answered. 'And Fred says, he's glad he found out the narrowness of his soul, being only a country lawyer, or he might have made your life miserable. Don't you want 'em to approve of your taking to art, Cynthy?" "No, sobs Cynthy. 'I wanted to shock 'em, aunt. I hate art.' "Hate art! I exclaimed. 'Cynthy, you make me feel terrible. How am I going to appease my hankerings if you're going back on me?' "But it's different, says Cynthy, now fairly crying. 'You've got Uncle Abe, and you were always contented at home, and now I've led you astray at your age and made him miserable and—I'd never have left Monatash only Fred told me if I did he'd never ask me to return, and I couldn't take that from him—but it all makes me sick Aunt Lidy." "So it does me, Cynthy," I answered. "And maybe I got that wrong about Fred Holden and Lucy Brown. Now I come to think of it, it was Jack Higgins was going with her My, Cynthy, what's the matter? What are you hunting for?" "The time-table," answers Cynthy. (Copyright, 1914, by W. G. Chapman.) Nature's Ironies. The irony of fate has had few finer illustrations than that staged in the western part of this country during the last seven months. A drought, unrivaled for duration and severity, held nearly a dozen states in its grip last summer, drying up wells and streams, parching pastures, ruining crops. As a result of this drought, hundreds of thousands of breeding stock or unfinished steers were sent to market, because there was no fodder to carry them through the winter. Having struck her blow, nature began to smile. She sent an open season which enabled farmers to do their plowing at a time when the ground usually is locked in frost. She followed this favor with a series of snow falls throughout the west, all of them remarkable and one quite unprecedented. Melting snow will supply the moisture too often lacking, good crops are almost assured, and not for a generation has there been such good range pasture as will be found this summer. But the stock which should fatten and multiply on that pasture have gone to the stock yards.—Chicago Journal. Different "Front."

Hundreds of Agencies WHEN KIDNEYS ACT BAD TAKE GLASS OF SALTS Eat Less Meat If Kidneys Hurt or You Have Backache or Bladder Mirage —Meat Forma Urin Acid. No man or woman who eats meat regularly can make a mistake by flushing the kidneys occasionally, says a well-known authority. Meat forms uric acid which clogs the kidney pores so they singly filter or strain only part of the waste and pores from the blood, then you get sick. Nearly all rheumatism, headache, liver trouble, nervousness, constipation, dizziness, neuropathy, bladder disorders come from chaperoned kidneys. The moment you feel a dull ache in the kidneys or your back hurts, or if the urine is cloudy, offensive, full of sediment, irregular of passage or attached by a emination of soiling, get about four ounces of Jad Salts from any reliable pharmacy and take a tablepoundful in a glass of water before breakfast for a few days and your kidneys will then act fine. This famous salts is made from the acid of grapeg and lemon juice, combined with lithia and has been used for generations to finish clogged kidneys and stimulate them to activity, also to neutralize the acids in urine so it no longer causes irritation, thus ending bladder disorders. Jad Salkis is inexpensive and cannot failure; makes a delightful effervescent 10%-water drink which all regular meat eaters should take now and then to keep the kidneys clean and the blood pure, thereby avoiding serious kidney complications.—Adv.

It commenced on me by causing a scurf-like skin and my toe joints, finger joints and lips commenced to crack and split open. My finger cracks would bleed all day long; the cracks were very deep and my thumb seemed to be cracked to the bone. My hands were so bad that I had to sleep with gloves on. The cracks in my lips would bleed often during the day and I used to put adhesive plaster across them to try to keep them closed. My toes would bleed, and I would find blood in my socks when the day's work was done. The skin around the cracks was red and inflamed. I wore shoes one size too large on account of my feet being so sore. I used to become frantic with pain at times. My hands and feet used to smart. "I suffered agony for four months.

GOLDEN TEXT—"Blessed are those servants whom the Lord when he cometh shall find watching.”"—Luke 12:27, Pe Ne eee aes ea ee The words of Jesus are the greatest authority the believer has upon which to found his belief in the Second Com- ing. Some refuse to have much to do with this important theme because oth- ers have perverted it or else “overly emphasized it” yet in the 260 chapters in the New Testament there are 318 distinct references to this theme, a far greater proportion than is placed upon some of the doctrines upon which whole denominations have been found- ed. Relative Value. 1. The exhortation to watch, vv. 35- 40. ‘This is the beginning of a new paragraph. Jesus has been showing the relative value of material posses- sions and the Kingdom of God and epitomizes .his teaching in v. 34. He now sets before his disciplines what shall their attitude towards him during his absence (II. Pet. 3:11, 12 R. V., Ti tus 2:13; II, Tim. 4:8). Thus to be watchful seems to contradict his sug- gestions about anxiety. We need to remember, however, that the child of the Kingdom is in entirely new relationship with the world. His desire is not for self enrichment but rather to be in such relations with God as his rights demand and thus to bring to others their highest good. This par- able epitomizes opportunity. Rightly to make use of none’s opportunities spells happiness for the disciple when he the king shall appear. The evidence that we are watching for his appear ing consists of the readiness of the in- dividual who is or is not watching, v. 85; I. Pet. 1:13. Jesus knocks at the individual heart (Rev. 3:20) but when he comes ‘twill be to be present at a feast, v, 36. We cannot contract this time and there is no call to service to morrow. Lions girt, ready for the bat- tle or for the race, and lamps burn: ing, (light is always the result of some thing being consumed), are today’s vis- ible evidence of continuous service. Peter's Question. Il. The explanation to Peter, wv. 41-48. Between this parable and the one which follows, Peter interrupts by asking the question, “Lord, speakest thou this parable unto us, or even un: to all?” That which follows is his an- swer to that question but it is also a continuance of the teaching just given. In this part Jesus refers to stewards (bond-servants) that it is their su: preme business to seek the Kingdom by selling in order to give. The one work of a servant is to give to the members of an household, each in due season his portion of the father's bountiful grace, John 21:15-17: I. Pet. 5:2; Jer. 3:15. There are many de ceitful servants who first feed them- selves, or feed only # portion of the household, or who feed chaff rather than bread, even the true bread of life, I. Pet, 2:2; 4:10, 11. Jesus teaches us that each bond-servant shall likewise be judged and that suddenly. Il. The exhortation. Jesus Christ here presents to us the fact that we shell all be judged. That the measure of our reward or of our punishment is dependent upon the measure of our knowledge and of our opportunity, James 4:17. To him to whom much is given, of him shall much be re quired. Our present responsibility is that of being ready for the coming of the King and of his Kingdom. The ex, pression of that readiness is evidenced by our lives of service. There are of course many other phases of service not included in this parable, but ou Lord is emphasizing opportunity, stew ardship, service, watchfulness. In or der to fulfill ourservice we must entet into fellowship with the king in his reign, and those who enter into thai fellowship, who are faithful, he wil reward vv, 37,43. The medisure of out punishment is conditioned upon thi measure of our knowledge (vy, 48) anc our knowledge can be enlarged as ws wee our opportunities. 1V. The Golden Text, (v. 37). I intended to fix our attention upon the acts of our Lord when he shall return It seems astonishing that he shall com pel those whom he finds watching té seat themselves that he may gird him self and serve them.

Lewis formerly Mved near Dayton, Ohio. He went to Saskatche- wan seven years ago with $1,800 in money, a carload of household effects and farm {inp!-ments, including four horses and three cows. Of course, the first year he only got feed from the crops, but the second year had 100 acres in wheat which made over 2,800 bushels. He has not had a fatlure in crop, and at present has 22 head of horses, 15 head of cattle and 35 hogs, and owns 1,120 acres of land, all un- der cultivation. He has been offered $35 an acre for his land, and should he care to dispose of his holdings he could pay all his debts and have $30,- 000 to the good; but, as he says, “Where could I go to invest my money and get as good returns.” He con- tinues in his letter to the immigration department, August, 1912; “We have equally as good if not better prospects for crops this year as we had three years ago, when our wheat ranged from 30 to 48 bushels per acre, I never believed such crops could be raised until I saw them my- self.

If tred, worried, lame, rheumatic, dizzy and nervous don't let a poosible weakness of the kidneys escape attention until it turns into a case of gravel, dropsy or Bright's disease, Sick kidneys go from bad to worse. Their useful work of filtering the blood is only partly done. Poisons that should be passed out with the kidney secretions are held tn the blood, cir- culating freely, attacking muscles, nerves and vital organs. The kidneys inflame, swell and throb, and that is the cause of sharp pains in the back, or that dull, constant heavy ache. For quick help use Doan's Kidney Pills.

Judging from from the interest being manifested in the coming campaign, there will be "something doing" at the polls on March 17. Will the day ever come when the Colored press of this country will be fully and justly appreciated by the masses of our people? When, O Lord, when?

The city campaign is still in an uncertain stage of the game is the belief of W. L. McKee, one of the leading factors in politics among the Colored people of this city.

Besides these, there will be perhaps another industrial proposition submitted. All of these propositions should appeal, without argument, to the intelligent voter and we believe the minds of the progressive people of Tulsa are in full accord with any plan which makes tor better times, a more beautiful city and greater commercial interests. These bonds should carry by an overwhelming majority and the good work of making a modern city of Tulsa started at once and in earnest.

It's a safe wager that if every state officer who has been offered a bribe, has offered a bribe, has accepted a bribe, [to say nothing of the fellows who would like to be offered a bribe], if they all had their measure, under the same law which caught Ed Perry, we would have to call a special election for state officers, right now.

But the common people who always represent the balancing power on election day may be relied upon to act wisely when the time comes for them to decide the questions at issue by their ballots. The Colored voters who are abreast with the times in political matters no longer depend on any political party when it is up to them to help decide by their ballot the future of their home town; but, like all true men ought to do, they consider MEN and MEASURES only. There're good & bad men in all parties, and the hardest task for the voter to perform is to properly distinguish between them The STAR will not attempt to dictate, or even suggest, any of the candidates of any party, at this time, as the proper man for any particular office; but we do think the voters of this city, as awhole, and especially the Colored voters, should exercise due precaution and good judgement in the matter of selecting men to administer the municipal affairs of great Tulsa. A clean, intelligent vote is expected of every citizen who exercises the privilege of franchise. This done, none of us should have anything to fear and all of us should have much for which to feel proud. There are no Colored men seeking office. They are all White men and they will be selected and elected mainly by White men. But the Colored voters will have a hand in the game and they will not overlook the fact that paramount to any political party, any scheming politician, is the interest of Tulsa and the welfare of her citizenship, regardless of race or color. ```markdown ``` VOTING THE BONDS --- THE CITY CAMPAIGN TULSA.

Dearman, scientist, was called to Longview, Texas, by special request of Mr. Jess Isabel, who is a brother-in-law of Pink Watley of Tulsa. Mr. Isabel is a wealthy citizen of Longview and is in a very low state of health. On account of the confidence he has in Dr. Dearman and his system of treatment he has made a special request that Dr. Dearman come to his bedside at once. Dr Dearman is one of Tulsa's most respected professional citizens and uses his own remedy, "Hottenot," which he claims easily conquers more than 10 diseases of the human family. Dr Dearman has fully demolsted the virtue of his "Hottenot" remedies, which are on sale at all leading drug stores. C. M. E. CHURCH NOT S Mr. Eborrow: I am sorry you few notes that I feel will be interest to your readers. The wind began to blow from the northwest and from southeast and came together at the parsonage of the C. M. E. church. While the pastor and his most estimable wife were in church, they heard singing outside by many sweet voices. So they rushed to the parsonage where they found a host of bright and happy faces who had come with donations for their pastor, as a special mark of appreciation from friends in the congregation.

Oklahoma TULSA, OKLA Phone 3337 TULSA, OKLA AFRO-AMERICAN CULLINGS AFRO-AMERICAN "The educated man usually overestimates himself because his intellect has grown faster than his experience of life."—General Armstrong. "Every time I think of Hampton, I get a new definition of education and a new ideal of human training. I believe that Hampton is, after all, the real American university. I believe that this institution comes nearer having found the clew to the maze in this great process of training people for life, in life and by life, than any other institution in the world." This striking tribute has been paid to Hampton institute by Dr. Wallace Buttrick, secretary of the General Education board, who knows intimately educational institutions throughout the whole country. Some 20,000 people are attracted annually to Hampton institute, the pioneer industrial and agricultural training school for negro and Indian youth, founded in 1868 by Gen. Sam- WESTERN STATE HISTORICAL MUSEUM The Old Plantation "Great House," Which Was Completely Remodeled by Hampton Institute Tradesmen, and Is Now Occupied by Principal Hollis Burke Frissell and His Family. uel C. Armstrong. These visitors, from all parts of the world, are attracted by the unique and effective educational methods which Hampton institute has been successfully employing for over 45 years in the training of negroes and Indians for unselfish and efficient service in the home, on the farm, in the shop and in the kitchen. Hampton institute, indeed, fits young negroes and Indians for life—"in life and by life." It emphasizes in every department of its work the value of clean, honest and useful living. Russia's population is increasing at the rate of 2,500,000 a year. It now stands at about 147,000,000, of which 100,000,000 are peasants. In some parts of Mexico proficiency of the school children is rewarded by giving them the cigarette-smoking privilege in school. Nothing gives a clearer idea of the progress being made by the negro in the south and of the prospect that in time the vexed "race question" will find its own solution than the annual report of Dr. Booker T. Washington, principal of Tuskegee institute, to the trustees of the institution. It is not too much to say that Tuskegee, more than any other single agency, has been and is effective in bringing about this condition. It is the pioneer of institutions for the uplifting of the negro race, and its work, its graduates and its example are mighty factors in solving the vexed race problem. The condition of the institution is thoroughly healthy. Doctor Washington's report shows that it is living within its means and has effected large and important savings in current and operating expenses. The institute had during the year ended May 31, 1913, students to the number of 2,137, including 1,618 regular students from 33 states and 18 foreign countries; 219 pupils in the children's training school, and 300 teachers in the summer school for teachers. At St. Louis the Southern Baptist convention appointed a committee consisting of E. Y. Mullins, O. L. Hailey, A. J. Barton, Ben Cox, E. E. Atkinson, J. M. Frost, B. F. Riley, G. W. McDaniel and J. J. Bennett to confer with the colored brethren on the subject of establishing a theological seminary for the training of their preachers. (See Baptist Annual, page 21.) There was to be held in the city of Memphis, Tenn., immediately following the adjournment of the convention, a meeting of their education board and missionary board. It was important that our communication should be brought before them. Five brethren were appointed to do this, namely, O. L. Hailey, Ben Cox, B. F. Riley, A. J. Barton and J. M. Frost. Only two could fulfill this appointment—O. L. Hailey and B. F. Riley. They had a full and frank conference with the colored brethren there assembled, and as a result of that conference the whole matter was referred to a joint meeting of nine brethren appointed by the National Baptist convention and the nine brethren from the Southern Baptist convention. That fuller meeting of the two committees was held in Nashville in connection with the meeting of the National Baptist convention in September following. At that meeting the whole question was fully and deliberately canvassed and a satisfactory agreement unanimously reached, all the members of both committees heartily agreeing thereto. That agreement was in favor of the establishment of a negro theological seminary at the place where it promises to do the must good. Five cities were mentioned as possible locations, and the corresponding secretary of the Northern Baptist convention, Rev. S. C. Griggs, was instructed to bring the matter to the attention of the proper persons in those cities. They are Louisville, Ky., Nashville, Tenn., Atlanta, Ga., Birmingham, Ala., and Memphis, Tenn. The full report of the committee will be brought to the convention at its approaching session in May of this year, when we meet in Nashville, Tenn. Our committee will report in favor of the establishment and maintenance of such a seminary.—Baptist and Reflector. Challenging an implied suggestion, by Senator Hoke Smith of Georgia, that there are no negro chemists in this country, during the debate on the agricultural extension work bill in the senate, Ralph W. Tyler has sent a letter to Senator Smith naming a number of negro chemists. "I do not know a negro chemist," was the remark of Senator Smith, which called forth the letter from Mr. Tyler. In his letter Mr. Tyler says: At Tuskegee institute they have a negro agricultural chemist, Professor Carver, a graduate of the University of Iowa, whom former Secretary of Agriculture Wilson pronounced on of the best agricultural chemists in the country. There is also now in the department of agriculture a negro chemist, Richard H. Lewis of the University of Illinois, who won his place in competition with white chemists. I could give the names of many negro chemists, but even one is sufficient to puncture your sweeping statement that there are no negro chemists." There are colored farmers of Accomack county, Virginia, who clear from $1,000 to $2,000 a year on their crops, whose homes are comfortable, whose stock is well cared for, whose families ride out on Sunday in comfortable carriages. Some of the colored farmers of Accomack and Northampton counties are members of the interesting association which for nearly twenty years past has acted as a buying and selling agency for the farmers of the region. This association buys annually more than $200,000 worth of seed for its members, and spends $10,000 a year in telegraph tolls to keep in touch daily with the markets over a large part of the United States. Along the highways at Topsham, Me., where new state roads are being built, wild apple trees outside the old stone walls are being grafted with summer apples. Big trees bear metal signs informing the public that the fruit is for public use. A leather belt in an English factory has been running at a speed of 1,800 feet a minute from nine to twelve hours a day for more than 32 years. "OH! I FEEL SO THANKFUL" Sincere Gratitude Expressed by Lady After being Delivered From a Very Low State. Hayne, N. C.—"I feel it my duty," says Mrs. Z. V. Spell, of this place, "to tell everybody how much good Cardul, the woman's tonic, has done for me. Last spring, I suffered dreadfully from womanly troubles, and was in a very low state of health, was not able to be up to attend any of my duties. We finally consulted our family physician, and he advised me to try Cardul, the woman's tonic, which I did, and soon I began to feel better. After using seven or eight bottles, I was able-to do my housework. I am now able to do all of my work and take care of my children. I feel so thankful for the benefit I have received that I shall heartily recommend Cardul to all similarly afflicted women." If you, lady reader, suffer from any of the numerous ills so common to your sex, try Cardul. It has been helping weak, nervous, worn-out women for over half a century, and will help you, too. Cardul is a perfectly harmless, vegetable extract, of mild acting, medicinal, tonic herbs. It is the ideal, strengthening medicine for women. Cardul regulates irregularities, tones up the womanly organs, and brings back the brightness of health. Get a bottle today. N.
