MINNEAPOLIS DULUTH THE TWIN CITY STAR ST.PAUL MINNESOTA HISTORICAL SOCIETY. PRESBYTERIAN COUNCIL MEETS Keen Interest Manifested at the Seventh Annual Session. ADVOCATES MORE SCHOOLS. Rev. W. A. Byrd In Able Address Gives Reasons For Slow Growth of the Church Numerically and Why Organic Union With Southern Church Has Not Been Accomplished. The seventh annual meeting of the council of Presbyterian ministers and laymen was held in the Lafayette Presbyterian church, Jersey City, N.J. Rev. Dr. C. H. Trusty pastor, from Thursday, Oct. 27, to Sunday, Oct. 30. There were many delegates present, especially from the eastern states. Following the formal opening of the council the program as proposed by the committee was adopted, and the exercises began in earnest. The opening sermon was preached by the Rev. Dr. Leonard Z. Johnson of Baltimore at the evening session. Dr. Johnson's discourse was delivered with great forcefulness and animation. It dealt with deep Scriptural truths and citations of God's presence with the church in all of its struggles and triumphs. He is one of the most gifted of the younger ministers of the denomination. "The Presbyterian Church and the Negro" was the subject of an able and scholarly address by the Rev. Dr. W. A. Byrd, who is the pastor of an influ- REV. CHARLES H. TRUSTY. ential Presbyterian church in Rochester, N. Y. Dr. Byrd is also editor of the Rochester Sentinel, a splendid weekly paper with a large circulation. In the course of his address Dr. Byrd said: Presbyterianism is peculiarly adapted to the substantial uplift and the Christianizing of Negroes. The genius of Calvinism is a counterpart to the very emotional nature of the Negro, and they imbibes it it produces a tertium quid, a very conformist attitude, and His worship is intellectual, yet spiritual. The Presbyterian church has realized the most satisfactory results of all denominations which have labored among Negroes, and it is very small, but quality very excellent. It has been the restraining power which has caused the more emotional and enthusiastic churches to moderate their emotionalness. The schools, however, are not progressive; are not as good and as high in point of curricula as they were twenty-five years ago. The gradual manning of freed schools and men should be the policy of the church. Cumberland union did more to drive Negroes away from the church than anything else elicited by the imagining. The un-Christian policy of the foreign board if continued means the wholesale exodus of self-respecting Negroes from the church. The program should be right of going into mission lands because they are Negroes and because in these foreign fields white missionaries must fraternize Negroes from the church. This negroes kept out of the crime of the day, so far as the church is concerned. The existence of the Negro in the Presbyterian church is the cause of the program, and the union of especially southern church. Among others on the program were the Rev. M. W. Anderson of the Beean Manual Training school, Philadelphia; Rev. J. B. Reeve, Philadelphia; Rev. W. W. Walker of Carlisle, Pa. Rev. R. H. Armstrong of Philadelphia; Rev. W. Williams of Baltimore and a number of ladies, representing the women's auxiliary bodies. The entertainment of the visitors was ably looked after by Rev. Charles Henry Tussey, the eloquent and populous pastor of the Lafayette church. The services on Sunday were largely attended by visitors from the various churches in New York, Brooklyn, Newark, N. J., and vicinity. Defective Page VOL I. Single Copies 5 Cents REV. CHARLES H. TRUSTY. MINNEAPOLIS CHURCH NOTES The Ladies Charity Club gave a Phantom dance on Halloween night at Dearborn Hall.

NORTHROP OF MINNEAPOLIS Elected Pres. of the Am. Missionary Association. Boston, Mass.—A resolution to petition Congress through President Taft to stop the liquor traffic was introduced today at the session of the American Missionary Association of the Congregational Council in Tremont Temple. Liberal education for the negro was set forth by President Frank G. Woodworth of Mississippi. The demands of the Indian on the American frontier were urged by Rev. Dr. Hull of South Dakota. The work of Rioce was described by Rev. John Edwards and that of Hawali by Rev. Dorenus Scudder. The American Missionary Association reported its receipts for three years as $1,589,348. "The negro should have an equal opportunity with the white man" said president Woodworth "and liberal education should be" opened to him. We have in our land in the south ten million of negroes. They should be so educated that they become trained men and why should there be less training for them than for the white man." "The negro should become better producers, and where there is this larger culture, they will respond. It is not true that the negro with white blood succeeds better than the full blooded one. I deny this. If you give him the opportunity, we enjoy, he will succeed, for he is a man." The Moderator, Rev. Nechemiah Boynton, made an address, to a very large audience, upon the "Nations Debt to the American Missionary Association."

M'KINLEY TAKES A ROSEATE VIEW Looks for Republican Victory at Tuesday's Election. WRITES A LETTER TO TAFT Illinois Congressman Assures the President That the Democrats Have No Chance of Gaining a Majority in the Next House of Representatives. Chief Executive of the Nation Makes the Letter Public. Washington, Nov. 3.—President Taft made public a letter from Representative W. B. McKinley, chairman of the Republican congressional campaign committee, in which he takes a most rosette view of Republican prospects at next Tuesday's election. Mr. McKinley has been optimistic from the outset of the campaign, and his letter to the president regarding the situation is enthusiastic to a marked degree. He declares that what some people recognized as a Democratic year in July will turn out to a Republican year in November. Mr. McKinley indicates that in his opinion the Democrats haven't the slightest chance of gaining a majority in the next house. The making public of the McKinley letter, it is said, will be the last act of the president in the present campaign. It was reported that Mr. Taft might write a letter on the New York state situation, but no confirmation could be obtained at the White House. Mr. McKinley's letter to the president follows: "It gives me great pleasure to inform you that every sign points to Republican control of the house of representatives in the Sixty-second congress. This information is based upon what I believe to be reliable reports from practically every one of the so called 'doubful' districts. We have made and are making substantial gains in districts which we lost in the election two years ago by a narrow margin. "Three months ago pessimistic Republicans and optimistic Democrats expressed the belief that this was a Democratic year. Their prediction was not shared by yourself or others charged with responsibility for carrying out the Republican campaign. I am pleased to advise you that has been a decided change in sentiment in the last few weeks. Democratic hopes are fading and Republicans generally are enthusiastic in their belief that while this may have been a Democratic year in July, it is a Republican year in November. The Paramount Question. "In your letter to me of Aug. 20, 1910, you state that the question was not what complexion of Republicanism one prefers, but whether it is better for the country to have a Republican party control the legislation for the next two years and further redeem its promises, or to enable a Democratic majority in the house either to interpose a veto to Republican measures or to formulate and pass bills to carry out Democratic principles. "Your clear and just analysis of Republican principles and your brief outline of the great work to which your administration is committed was adopted by the Republican congressional committee as the slogan of this campaign. The differences within the party were manifested in the sessions of the congress have been composed on the basis of your letter and a militant and united party is approaching the biennial election with confidence of deserved victory. "As you well predicted the party as a whole is showing itself practical and patriotic in subordinating individual opinion in order to secure real progress. "Following your suggestion it has been the aim of this committee to emphasize the difference in the governmental efficiency and capacity of the Republican and Democratic parties. We have sought to make this a campaign of education and, while in some districts the real issues are obscured by local questions and personal antimotives, I am convinced that our literature and our speakers have brought home to the voters as a whole a realization of the problems in the congressional elections this year would be a staggering blow to national prosperity, would impede, if not prevent, the enactment of all useful and progressive legislation and would make legitimate business the plaything of politics for two years. "I take this opportunity to thank you for your genuine and valuable co-operation with the committee in this campaign. We have made a clean, strathtforward fight for the great principles of the Republican party and I am looking with greatest possible confidence to the result." Sent your notes to the "Star" office.

Mayer, who was known while a soldier at Fort Myer, Va., as the "millionaire corporal," has been reduced to the ranks for disobedience of orders and being absent from duty without leave. Assertions made by western railroads in justification of the purposed increase in freight rates were held by Governor W. R. Stubbs of Kansas to be false and the roads guilty of stock and profit juggling. He was testifying before the interstate commerce commission at its session at Chicago in the rate hearing. Proposed advances in live stock rates between Missouri river transfers and Mississippi river transfers and Chicago were suspended by the interstate commerce commission pending an investigation of their reasonableness.

President Fallieres Aks Him For New Body—Ministry Falls to Act On Laws to Pre- Paris, Nov. 3.—The cabinet of Premier Briand, which succeeded the Clemenceau ministry on July 23, 1999, unexpectedly resigned in consequence of the bitter attacks made in the chamber of deputies. President Fallieres asked Briand to form a new ministry and the latter accepted the task. Although the fact that there was a divergence of views among the ministers concerning legislative measures to prevent crises brought about by the recent railway strike was well known, the resignations created a sensation. It had been expected Premier Briand would remain and remodel the ministry in harmony with his views on a parliamentary program to meet future strike crises. The exact nature of Briand's program has not been announced, but it is understood both M. Millerand, minister of public works, posts and telegraphs, and M. Vivian, minister of labor, dissented, particularly Millerand, who insisted upon the principle of arbitration. Briand, who was a Socialist, was made more conservative by the responsibility of power and experience. His opponents took delight in throwing in his teeth his defense of Herve in 1903, when the latter was prosecuted for his anti-military writings. At that time Briand identified himself with his client's opinions, but Herve's attitude later became more violent. Chamber Is Defeated. On Nov. 8 Briand won a notable victory in defeating in the chamber of deputies a proposal to change the method of elections of deputies from representation by aoundissement to representation by department. He carried the day by threatening to resign if the reform was voted. Again on March 15 last Briand received an overwhelming vindication when the chamber of deputies condemned the manner in which the property of the religious orders had been liquidated but expressed confidence in the government's promise to take the responsibility and punish the guilty. Briand Faces Rail Strike. Briand was confronted on Oct. 10 by the railway strike on the Northern railroad and which, spreading to other lines, threatened to paralyze traffic throughout the republic. He met the situation with a firmness that challenged the admiration of the world. A strong Republican majority in the chamber voted confidence in the government but at a meeting of the ministers dissensions developed and Briand announced that new and serious problems grown out of the labor trouble must be met by a united ministry. Accordingly he suggested the retirement of himself and associates. Plans Kept Secret. It is likely that Foreign Minister Uichon, Minister of Commerce Duply, Minister of War Brun, and Minister of the Navy Lapeyere will remain in the new cabinet. TO FLY ACROSS CONTINENT.

Darkening the Eyebrows The hair of the eyebrows retains the color long after the hair of the head has turned gray.

A., retired, died at his home here at the age of 78 years. Born in Italy in 1832, Major De Dudio began a turbulent career by allying himself with Garibaldi while still hardly more than a boy. From Italy he went with three companions to Paris, the four attempted to kill Napoleon III, and Empress Eugenie with bombs. For this three of them were sentenced to be guillotined. One Conspirator Executed. Pierl, one of the conspirators, was executed first and De Dudio was to be next. He had said farewell to his wife and child and was ready to die. As in the case of Pierl, priests marched on either side of him. His arms were bound behind him and his clothing was stripped from him practically from his waist up, so there should be nothing to block the blade in its fall. As a last favor De Rudio asked that he be allowed to smoke a pipeful of tobacco. The executioner filled the pipe for the doomed man, placed it in his mouth and furnished a light. Then came the replease. The secret of the reprieve was that De Rudio's young wife had so impressed the Empress Eugenie with her tearful pleas for her husband's life that the empress, falling to win mercy for the condemned man from Napoleon III, had issued orders herself that the execution be stoned. When Napoleon III.II. learned of De Rudio's escape from death he was furious. He and the empress had a violent quarrel. But De Rudio had only a short gleam of hope. He was tried once more and again was condemned to die. By this time the emperor's wrath had cooled and the tears of the empress were too much for him, so he commuted the sentence to life imprisonment in one of France's penal settlements. There De Rudio spent more than five years and then by taking advantage of a series of queer happenings he managed to escape and make his way to America. Fought in Civil War. He joined Company A, Seventy-ninth New York volunteers, as a private, fought under Grant and other great commanders and when he was mustered out in 1865 he was second lieutenant of the Second United States infantry. In August, 1867, he joined the regular army and was appointed second lieutenant to the Seventh cavalry and under Custer saw much Indian fighting. 1876 De Rudio was with the Custer command that was massacred at the Little Big Horn. TEACHERS HEAR FOLK SONGS. Pretty Feature at Opening of the Minnesota Educational Association. St. Paul, Minn., Nov. 3. A group of folk songs given by 400 boys from nine of this city's grade schools was the pretty feature with which the Fort-eighth annual convention of the Minnesota Educational Association opened today. The young singers were directed by Miss Elsie M. Shaw, supervisor of music in the city schools. Superintendent E. M.

BROWNE JUROR CLAIMS BRIBERY INDICTMENT IS FOUND AGAINST ERBSTEIN OF COUNCIL FOR ACQUITTED SOLON. Man in Box and Alleged Go-Between Appear as Complaintants.—Disgruntled Because They Got Only Small Sum. Chicago, Nov. 3.—Charles E. Erbstein, of counsel for Lee O'Neil Browne, who recently was acquitted on a charge of bribing a state representative to vote for William Lorimer for United States senator, was indicted, charged with corrupting a member of the jury which cleared Browne. The juror in question, Grant McCutcheon, and Henry T. Etacy, alleged gobetween, according to their stories told to State's Attorney Wayman, received $250 which they divided equally between themselves for McCutcheon's vote on the verdict. - The first trial of Browne resulted in a disagreement; the second, in which the alleged bribery is said to have figured, in a verdict of not guilty. Among the witnesses for the state were three state representatives who confessed on the staid to being paid $1,000 each for their votes for Lorimer. Immediately the case went against him, Mr. Wayman began an investigation of numerous rumors concerning attempts at tampering with venirem. A week ago he secured a clew which led to McCutcheon. The latter and Stacy, it is said, disgruntled at the small sum which they say they received, resolved to tell their stories. Stacy, in particular, was angry. He had, he says, expected to receive a large sum of money for his work, as well as a political job. According to his confession, he sought out State Representative Erickson and asked how he could market McCutcheon's vote. Erickson, Stacy said, replied that he was not personally interested in the case, but would put him in touch with some one who was. Soon afterward, Stacy said, he was introduced to Mr. Erbstein. Meanwhile he had communicated with McCutcheon. The jury was closely guarded, but Stacy managed to arrange a code of signals by which the juror would know whether the financial arrangements with Erbstein had been consummated. The "high sign" was one of these signals, and another was the word "stick." McCutcheon received the signals and, according to his own story, became a partisan of Browne's at once. He voted for acquittal on the first ballot, and argued with others to bring them to his side. When the time came to realize on McCutechon's alleged perfidy the latter and Stacy went to Erbatlen's office, so they declare. They thought there would be at least $2,000 in cash and easy jobs in it. According to Stacy, they could scarcely believe their eyes when the lawyer gave them only $100. Later, they declare he gave them $150 more. Made Ninety Visits. Stacy testified before the grand jury that he made nearly ninety visits to the lawyer's office looking for money and the jobs. Sometimes, he said, Erbstein was "out," sometimes he was told that "things haven't been fixed up," or some other excuse given. Once he was given $10 to take a trip to Springfield to see a certain person about a position. No success. There was talk about a place in the county building, but this also came to naught. Finally Stacy was told that the $250 was all there was in it for them. He was wroth. McCutechon demurred to take the case to the state's attorney, but Stacy said he would go alone. McCutechon then reluctantly agreed to act with him. The indictment was not unexpected by Mr. Erbstein. He declared that Wayman had been trying to "get him" for years and the indictment was merely an incident of persecution by the state's attorney. Smoke Routs Out Hotel Guests. Duluth, Nov. 3.

THE FIRST TASTE If parents realized the fact that coffee contains a drug—caffeine—which is especially harmful to children, they would doubtless hesitate before giving the bables coffee to drink. "When I was a child in my mother's arms and first began to nibble things at the table, mother used to give me sips of coffee. As my parents used coffee exclusively at meals I never knew there was anything to drink but coffee and water. "And so I contracted the coffee habit early. I remember when quite young the continual use of coffee so affected my parents that they tried roasting wheat and barley, then ground it in the coffee-mill, as a substitute for coffee. "But it did not taste right and they went back to coffee again. That was long before Postum was ever heard of. I continued to use coffee until I was 27, and when I got into office work, I began to have nervous spells. Especially after breakfast I was so nervous I could scarcely attend to my correspondence. "At night, after having coffee for supper, I could hardly sleep, and on rising in the morning would feel weak and nervous. "A friend persuaded me to try Postum. My wife and I did not like it at first, but later when boiled good and strong it was fine. Now we would not give up Postum for the best coffee we ever tasted. "I can now get good sleep, am free from nervousness and headaches. I recommend Postum to all coffee drinkers." Read "The Road to Wellville," in pigs. "There's a Reason." Ever read the above letter?

I remember that when I was at school at my home in Liberal, Mo., where I was born in 1887, I used to play "hookoo" to play ball, and whenever the West Side and the East Side teams played on Saturday afternoon I was either pitcher or catcher. No one could chase me into the outfield. I moved down into the southwest and started to play ball at Morenci, Arizona, not so much for what they paid me as for the honor of playing on the teams. I don't exactly know how they happened to find me out there, but I remember that my mother a trial in the spring of 1908 and the boys blubbed me, saying I couldn't make good. I didn't. but the fact that Portland gave me a short trial and V Robert Harmon. then sent me home aroused my determination to show them I could pitch whether thou thought so or not. It happened that Streveport, La., offered me a trial in the spring of 1909, and over there I met a catchen who knew something. He was Lee Garvin, an old timer who knew more about pitching that I ever will know if I live to be a hundred. Garvin began showing me a lot of the tricks of the trade and teaching me how to the natural curves and speed he had mastered to thinking I earnest about how to pitch scientifically instead of shutting my eyes and shooting the ball around the plate as hard as I could. Under Garvin and Dale Gear, who was managing the team, I began to learn the rudiments of scientific pitching. A pitcher never gets through learning, and the moment he thinks he is master of all the tricks of the trade he is ready to go back to the minor leagues. A fellow has to keep working and studying all the time, learning to do new things with a ball, and learning to use his head. It is hard work, but I never have regretted trying to break out into the big leagues. Even if I slip back now, or damage my arm so I never can pitch again, the experience and training gained will help me in any line of business or trade. I think I have learned self-control, patience and to keep my temper; to respect the rights of others and to look on things with the other man's view as well as my own, and I think it has been as good an education as I could have gained in any way. BASEBALL PLAYERS IN UNION Men Are Dissatisfied With Existing Conditions and Will Form Another Brotherhood. A movement is on foot to organize a baseball players' union, which will apply for membership in the American Federation of Labor, according to President Navin of the Detroit club and David L. Fultz of New York, a graduate of Brown university, is slated for the presidency of the brotherhood, says a Providence (R. I.) dispatch to the Buffalo Express. Mr. Fultz was formerly a baseball and football player and made a reputation as such, playing second base and in the outfield of the Brown nine. He was capped at the junior football eleven and graduated in 1898. He was a member of the Philadelphia Athletics and the New York Americans, but retired from the diamond several years ago to take up the practice of law in New York city. Mr. Navin says the Detroit players have admitted taking part in the movement, which will become widespread before another season. If chosen president, Mr. Fultz will have power to deal with the national baseball commission in the attempt to secure numerous concessions for the playing element. It is understood that the proposed brotherhood will work for the adoption of a new contract which will Limit the time magnates can control their players to six months, from April 15 to October 15, and will permit players to engage in other pastimes the rest of the year. The most important demand, however, will be the right of players to be free agents as soon as their contracts expire. According to the insiders, the leaders of this new players' organization are anxious to impose a new rule, the bulwark of professional baseball, eliminated, so that players can demand and accept terms from any club owning a franchise in any major or minor league. If this demand is backed up by the proposed brotherhood, it is safe to say there will be a revolt all along the line, for it is conceded that the organized leagues will never agree to such proposition.

I got curious to see what was in a big lawn around a fine manhole, so I peeked over the high bone fence, so there were three of the finest young ladies I ever see. They had no shoes or stockings on and with sleeves rolled up to their shoulders they waded about, finally lying down and rolling over and over in the wet dewy grass."

In the morning the itching had gone to my chest and during that day it spread all over my body. I was red and raw from the top of my head to the soles of my feet and I was in continual agony from the itching. I could neither lie down nor sit up. I happened to see about Cucurta Remedies, and I thought I would give them a trial. I took a good bath with the Cucurta Soap and used the Cucurta Ointment. I put it on from my head down to my feet and then went to bed. On the first of April I felt like a new man. The itching was almost gone. I continued with the Cucurta Soap and Cucurta Ointment and during that day the itching completely left me. Frank Gridley, 325 East 43rd Street, New York City, Apr. 27, 1909."

TO OUR VOTERS. Now, that the election is drawing near, our people in the Twin Cities are being looked upon. And they know wry. The white man wants your vote. Do you know its value? Are you willing to promiscuously present it to him? Consider carefully, and act accordingly! You should know its worth. They have distraughted negroes in certain parts for this reason,—that his vote was his defense. If properly exercised, this right which you hold, will place in power the men, who can help you, if they keep promises after election. The days of reconstruction are past. The negro is in his "Lra of Political Freedom." Vote for your personal interest, and you will vote for your races weare. This does not mean 'a small sum of money,' but for the men who stand for the principles or right. Assert your individuality, regardless of party. The negro has been the automatic property of the Republicans, without fair compensation, and has not given his support to Democrats, who have individually, helped his ace. "Right of suffrage" is your only constitutional right. Be not bound to a party. The party of a few years ago may be different today. The principles of yesterday are changed today. The candidate who stands for right and justice to all men, regardless of color or conditions, who knows the policies of Lincoln and Grant, and lives up to them. Who does not recite history, but promises to give to your people their share of consideration after election, is the man you should vote for. DO YOU KNOW HIM? A1. Smith is gone. The fight pic tures are still going. Let us forget. CONGRESSMAN NYE. Frank M. Nye, our present congressman, is the regular nominee of the Republican party and Candidate for re-election. He will be elected by the vote of the Negroes of his district. He is opposed by Thos. Dwyer, a Democrat, who has been endorsed by the Labor Organizations. We know that Mr. Nye has done much for the Negroes of this country, and for that reason we wish for his re-election. We know that the Negroes of this district have no representation—and we realize Mr. Nye's fitness for the position and recognize his superiority over his opponent. The Nation needs its most able men in the next Congress. The issues are of vital importance to each and every citizen and Mr. Nye is equal to the task. We hope that every Negro voter of the 5th district will help to elect Frank M. Nye. We hope that he will do something for his friends of lang standing" in this district. "Stand by the old ship," but change the "system." Unjust discrimination. A Boston judge fined a bartender $100, for refusing to serve a colored woman, who was in company of a white couple in a cafe. He held that it was a case of unjust discrimination. Wentworth of Boston and Flintheout of St. Paul will fine anybody-anywhere anytime, if you're in wrong. That's all. Judge Dickinson's judicial career has won him many friends among the voters of our race. Well, there are people paid to "get out the vote" also people paid to "get out and vote." PRESS KEY NO. 17, COLUMN C. The Colored Republican delegation of St. Paul went to the County Committee, and came away "pleased with the outlook." That's saying a good deal, and we feel that they are "men who know." The Episcopal minister who said that the Emancipation of the Negroes was "a dire disaster" would as soon "lead a lynching-party as he would a prayer-meeting." COUNTY OPTION "The adoption of a county option law by the Legislature would not endanger the Minneapolis patrol limits and the local option law. If Hennepin County were to vote dry under County Option, the saloons would be closed. If it did not so vote, neither the patrol limits or the dryness of the villagers would be affected." Judge Simpson of the District Bench, now candidate for the Supreme Bench, has termed the Twin City Star a "Campaign Paper" — We admit it, and will be campaigning every week forth. The Star accepts the title gracefully, and we have passed through this grand and progressive campaign without purse but with script, and though we may have had an itching palm, we have not sacrificed any man on the altar of self-aggrandizement—but have told plain honest truths. We hope the "possibility" a success on the higher bench, we anticipate continuous campaigning with a purpose of right, a policy of justice and a principle of equality. S. A. STOCKWELL Judges W. F. Booth and W. E. Hale of the District Court are congratulated on their nomination by popular vote. They were appointed to fill vacancies. Gov. Johnson appointed Judge Booth, a democrat, and Gov. Eberhard appointing Judge Hale, a republican. Both are true friends of our race, and will get the colored vote. They are of the best type of American gentlemen. One a democrat the other a republican. Both are men. The true friends of Senator Wilson will not prove ungrateful. His best deeds are not recorded as "his political history." The Twin City Star is an independent paper and does not pledge its support for "political advertisements." This paper is read by people who are intelligent and who can decide for themselves, when they know the issues. We shall give publicity to endorsements by Negro organizations to candidates of all parties. FIGHT ON IN BALTIMORE Attempt to Sugregate Colored Citizens Meets Stubborn Opposition. The colored citizens turned out nobly at the city hall of Baltimore Monday night, Oct. 24, to protest against the unfair ordinance some whites are seeking to have become a law in order to keep the colored people confined to certain residential neighborhoods. The bill confines the race to certain blocks occupied by a majority of colored people, but allows servants to reside in their employers' homes. Stirring addresses of protest against the Revs. A, L. Gaines, W. A. C. Hughes, W. E. Williams, G. R. Waller, Editor J. H. Murphy of the Afro-American Ledger and others. Harry S. Cummings, the only colored member of the city council, will make a stirring address when the measure comes up for final passage. Looking For Johnson's Superior Looking For Johnson's Superior. Miles McLeod of Albany, Mo. is the only white man who has thus far announced himself as the savior of his race to win back the heavyweight championship from Jack Johnson. McLeod weighs 225 pounds, is twenty-eight years old, and the boxing business when it comes to scientific hitting and severe punishment. Joe Choynaki seems to be the self appointed leader whose business it shall be to find a white man who can whip Champion John Arthur Johnson. CLEVELAND AS PROPHET. Truth of Late Ex-President's Prediction Has Come to Pass. The general discussion which is now going the rounds among Afro-Americans in most all sections of the country as to the wisdom of members of the race affiliating in any way with the Democratic party recalls an incident which occurred between Grover Cleveland during his first term as president and B. K. Bruce, who was then register of the treasury. As Mr. Bruce was a Republican, there was much speculation on the part of politicians as to whether he would be reappointed by Mr. Cleveland and again as to the propriety of his accepting to serve under a Democratic administration should the president see fit to make the appointment. Early in his administration President Cleveland sent for Mr. Bruce and offered to reappoint him, but the register pointed out to the president that the colored people would never have any more confidence in him if he consented to hold a federal office under a Democratic administration. Mr. Bruce's frankness astonished the president, and as the story runs, told him that the time would certainly come in the future when members of the Negro race would not consider it unmanly or unwise to affiliate with the Democratic party in an official capacity. One need only to look at conditions as they exist today to see the truth of Mr. Cleveland's prophecy. Republicans in Straits Betwixt Two. As we see it the Negro must cut loose from so much of the Republican party as is in the hands of the enemies, says the Dallas (Tex.) Express. This may mean a Democratic house this fall, but when the real Republicans see that they must throw the Jonahs overboard the political rights of the Negro will be restored and the Republican party will again come into power. PARTY EMANCIPATION. The Negroes do not have to follow the regular nominee of the Republican party, because he is a republican. They vote for the man with the right principles and purposes. They have is there a Negro receiving any recognition from the 5th district of Minnesota? When the colored voters of this district organize and unite under the leadership of one or a Committee, they will be Represented. Where is you leader? Over in Duluth they are saying something and doing something. They are trying to return Clarence B. Miller to Congress—They will. Subscribe to the Star. Political Candidates THOMAS KNEELAND.

A native son of the great state of Maine, and a citizen of Minneapolis for the past 30 years or more is making the campaign for nomination on the Republican ticket for representative from the 41st District, has a record entitling him to the support of the people. In the last legislature he stood for the city in the gas and street railway controversies, taking a leading part on the floor of the House.
