TAFT’S RECORD ON RECALL OF MOOSEVEIT is not the point of present comment. The focus of present interest is President Taft’s aversion toward any questioning of the sanctity of judicial decisions. "GRATITUDE" MEANS MALIGNANT ATTACK dangers of a plutocratic government, toward which we were fast tending." In numerous speeches during the campaign of 1908 Mr. Taft declared his cordial support of Mr. Roosevelt's THE N. N. E. CONGRESS en to the Congress. Chas. Sumner Smith presided. Seveneral young ladies served at the punch bowl, Mesdames. Ophelia Rice, John "But when the food committee of the National Consumers' league addressed to President Taft an appeal for the 'recall' of Dr. Wiley's resignation and cited certain facts decidedly pertinent to President Taft's horrified denunciations of 'nostrum makers' and 'subverters of the constitution,' who 'lay the ax to the root of the tree of liberty,' who dare question the infallibility of any judicial construction of any law? "For the Consumers' league makes clear in taking up the Taft decision in favor of the makers of imitation whisky that in this ruling the president recalled the decisions of President Roosevelt, Attorney General Bonaparte, Solicitor General Bowers and seven fed oral courts. Seven Times Sustained. "Finding themselves unable to sway the Roosevelt administration in spite of the efforts in their behalf of Secretary Wilson, the whisky polsoners went into the courts. Seven times the Roosevelt ruling was sustained, as follows: "Aug. 24, 1908, in federal court at Cincinnati. "Aug. 27, 1908, in same court, strong supplemental opinion refusing a rehearing. "United States circuit court for southern Illinois, later in the same year, completely sustained the Roosevelt ruling. "Feb. 4, 1909, United States Circuit Judge Cochran, at Richmond, specifically ruled that the judge who Roosevelt had ordered to be labeled as imitation whisky was exactly that. "Aug. 11, 1908, the court of appeals for the District of Columbia broadly sustained the ruling." "July 7, 1908, the United States district court for western New York completely sustained the Roosevelt rulings. "The supreme court of the District of Columbia, by decree in a case, United States porting to be whisky," held that the contents was an imitation of whisky. "Oct. 27, 1908, federal court at Baltimore broadly sustained the Roosevelt ruling that imitation whisky was imitation whisky, and must be so labeled. Alphonso Taft's Opinion. "What the Consumers' league failed to cite, however, was that President Taft in that one ruling not only recalled seven federal court decisions, but also another which, while it did not emanate from a court, was certainly judicial. For it was handed down by a great and honored jurist who sat in the cabinet of President Grant. This was the eight decision recalled: "Alcohol and whisky are, unquestionably, different articles in contemplation of law, as they are in fact, having different qualities and values. (Opinion of Alphonso Taft, attorney general, construing section of internal revenue laws. General Revenue Record. Aug. 2, 1876 volume 22.) "Just what process of reasoning the president employs to determine positively that he has the right to recall seven court decisions with a single signature, while the recall of one by the sober judgment of millions of citizens in a state would destroy our fundamental national liberties, we are unable to understand, except by remembering that striking portrait drawn by the lamented Dollier of the amiable person in the White House 'entirely surrounded by men who know exactly what they want.'" AFRO-AMERICAN MUSIC Damrosch Paye High Tribute to its Originality and Beauty. Artists and musicians who have won fame in their profession are constantly giving encouragement to colored men and women who are striving to make themselves proficient with the paint brush and the musical instrument. Speaking of the possibilities of the Afro-American in music, Mr. Walter Damrosch recently paid the race this compliment: But if proof positive of a soul in the Negro people should be demanded it can be given, for they have brought over from Africa and developed in this country, even under all the unfavorable conditions of slavery, a music so wonderful, so beautiful and yet so strange that, like the gypsy music of Hungary, it is at once the admiration and despair of educated musicians of our race. Unique and inimitable, it is the only music of this country, except that of the Indians, which can claim to be folk music. In it the Negroes pour out their joy and their sorrows in naive but wonderful moving fashion. Therefore, in the face of such testimony of emotional and aesthetical beauty, who dare deny their wider future possibilities in the great work of liberation of mind and soul which is now going on?

TAFT'S RECORD ON RECALL OF COURT DECISIONS Favored the Principle to Oblige "Poison Makers." Reconcilied His Conscience to the Promulgation of a Presidential Order Legalizing Every Demand of the Makers of Imitation Whisky—He "Recalled" Seven Federal Court Decisions to Accommodate the Opponents of Roosevelt and Dr. Wiley. Now that Mr. Taft is so violent in his opposition to any proposal to permit the people of a state to assert their understanding of the meaning of the constitution made by them when that meaning has been perverted by a judicial ruling, it is well to examine his past record in this particular. Recorded facts prove that President Taft is not opposed to the "recall of decisions" of the federal courts when the recall is made by "a representative part of the people," even though that part consists of one of 100,000,000 Americans. Here is an "expose" especially interesting at this time. It appears in the editorial columns of the Philadelphia phila North American: "Long before Theodore Roosevelt upheld the hands of Harvey Wiley and forced the passage of the pure food law there had been notorious frauds in the making, marking and branding of distilled liquors. But the question seemed pretty well settled by the upholding of the explicit provisions of the national pure food law in the rulings of Dr. Wiley, sustained by repeated messages of President Roosevelt, opinions of Attorney General Bonaparte and decisions of different federal courts. Merely Common Sense. "The question was simply one of common sense. There was to be no prevention of or penalty for the sale of any sort of liquor. The rulings meant only that the purchaser was entitled to the privilege of learning from the label whether he was buying what he was paying for. "Undoctored whisky was to be labeled 'whisky'. A mixture of two real whiskies was to be labeled 'blend.' A mixture of a whisky with something that is not whisky was to be labeled 'compound.' A concoction that smelled and tasted like whisky, but contained no whisky, was to be labeled 'imitation." "That was all there was to the provisions of the pure food law governing interstate commerce in whisky. It was such a simple, incontrovertible regulation for square dealing that every American who thought he knew along what lines the administration of William H Taft would be conducted scoffed at the idea that the question was not a closed chapter. "When the rectifiers of Cincinnati and Pooria hinted at the influence they could bring to bear upon a Cincinnati newspaper and Speaker Cannon and prophesied the discrediting and the downfall of Wiley we thought them overconfident in proclaiming that they could reopen a contest which had been won and won over and over by the people, by the state food commissioners and friends of pure food before President Roosevelt and the federal courts. "So there was wonder when there followed President Taft's executive order reopening the whisky branding question settled by Attorney General Bonaparte's successive opinions and President Roosevelt's orders-giving executive effect thereto. Taft's Conscience Reconciled. Taft's Conscience Reconciled. "At the time of the ruling in favor of the swindlers by Solicitor General Bowers, in June, 1909, the North American said: "The real meaning of this reopened controversy, of course, is that the conspiracy to weaken, break down and nullify the pure food laws is widespread, powerful and persistent. * * * With President Taft rests the responsibility of spreading credence or giving the lie to the general boasting of the druggers of food and drink of the city of Boulder and Wiley to safeguard the health of the people is to be obliterated before 1921 for the benefit of certain strong but not altruistic interests. "Six months' consideration resulted in President Taft's reconciling his conscience to the promulgation of a presidential decision legalizing every demand of the cheating poison makers of the Taft-Cox and Joe Cannon ballwicks. But this notorious annulment of a portion of the work of Wiley and Seven Times Sustained. Alphonso Taft's Opinion. WANTED. MINNEAPOLIS, MINN., JULY 20, 1912. "GRATITUDE" MEANS MALIGNANT.ATTACK UPON ROOSEVELT When Seeking the Presidency In 1908 He Strove to Appear as a Stanch Progressive—Wore a Mask For Two Years—Has Now Openly Stamped Himself as a Reactionary. Washington, April. - Stung to the quick by his belated recognition of the long patent fact that the voters of the Republican party had repudiated his candidacy for renomination and are overwhelmingly in favor of the nomination of Colonel Roosevelt as their candidate for the presidency this year. Mr. Taft has at last thrown aside all restraint and carried out the threat which he has been muttering to his intimates for some weeks to speak out in public his real thoughts about the man who made him president. In Mr. Taft's tirade against Mr. Roosevelt at Springfield, Mass., there is nothing essentially new to those who have been on anything more than relations of casual intimacy with the president for some time. It is a fact known to not a few of those closely connected with the campaign of 1908 that even at that time the Taft family was displaying that peculiarly malignant temper toward Mr. Roosevelt which so often takes the place of gratitude in the hearts of those who have benefited by a great service rendered by a friend. It is a fact known to not a few persons that at times during the campaign of 1908 the talk about Mr. Roosevelt among members of the Taft family was such as to cause the greatest uneasiness to the managers of Mr. Taft's campaign for the presidency, lest it should become public and work serious damage to the campaign. Those familiar with the true feeling toward Mr. Roosevelt in the Taft family have been surprised that Mr. Taft has concealed for so long his real attitude toward his benefactor. From the time last fall when the strong sentiment of the country in favor of Colonel Roosevelt began to manifest itself unmistakably, there has been much talk from Taft sources about Colonel Roosevelt's ingratitude to Mr. Taft. It has been assumed by Mr. Taft's partisans that, because Colonel Roosevelt was instrumental in bringing about Mr. Taft's nomination and election to the presidency, he was therefore bound at all times, under all circumstances and at all costs, to support Mr. Taft's administration and Mr. Taft's renomination and election. That assumption is entirely unwarranted and has no logical justification. The fact is that Taft, the president, is not and never for one moment has been the Taft Mr. Roosevelt and his intimate associates knew as secretary of war and whom they supported as a candidate for the presidency. While Mr. Taft was seeking the presidency he constantly sought to appear as a stanch and true progressive. But on that November night in 1908 when the count of the votes showed that he had been elected to tife presidency, he ceased to make any effort actually to be a progressive. For some time he continued to wear a mask as a progressive, but in the last two years of his presidency he has not kept up even that feeble effort to deceive the people of the country. By his constant association with the Aldriches, the Cannons and the Lorimers, by his ready submission to their influence and advice, by his active support of the measures they devised and favored; by his co-operation with them in matters of patronage, and by his unblushing attempt to coerce the real progressives through the brazen use of federal patronage, he has stamped himself openly as the reactionary which he has always been at heart. A single illustration will suffice for the demonstration of this proposition. In his speech at Cincinnati, in July, 1908, accepting the nomination for the presidency, Mr. Taft took occasion to reiterate his indorsement of Mr. Roosevelt and to enumerate some of the acts which he regarded as the distinctly beneficial achievements of his predecessor. In that speech he said: "He (Mr. Roosevelt) recommended the passage of a law, which the Republican convention has since specifically approved, restricting the future issue of stocks and bonds by interstate railways to such as may be authorized by feredal authority. He demonstrated to the people by what he said, by what he recommended to congress, and by what he did, the sincerity of his efforts to command respect for the law, and to save the country from the dangers or a plutocratic government, toward which we were fast tending." In numerous speeches during the campaign of 1908 Mr. Taft declared his cordial support of Mr. Roosevelt's proposition to secure the enactment of a law controlling the issue of securities by interstate carriers. When he became president, he pretended to make such a law one of the paramount measures of his legislative program. He caused to be prepared, with much advertisement and publicity, a bill purporting to contain provisions aimed at such control of the issue of securities. This bill was drafted by the eminently successful corporation lawyer whom Mr. Taft had placed at the head of the department of justice. The moment that bill was read by the genuine progressives of the senate and house, they denounced its provisions to control the issue of securities as intended really to further the designs of the railroad reactionaries and the special interests whom Mr. Taft has steadily sought to please from the day he was inaugurated. After a hard fight in the house, the Taft-Wickersham provisions were stricken from the bill and a substitute provision was adopted which at least embodied a recognition of the principle of federal control over the issue of such securities, and was, therefore, a distinct step in advance. When that measure reached the senate, Mr Taft's allies and cronies there were vastly distributed by this provision. Aldrich Crane, Penrose, Gallinger and all the other representatives of the special interests in the senate at once protested against it. These were the men with whom Mr. Taft was associating intimately, with whom he was working constantly, and upon whom he was relying for support in the senate. They were the same men who had most vigorously opposed his nomination when they, like Mr. Roosevelt, beled him to be a real progressive but already they had learn that his progressiveness was merely a mask worn for the purpose of securing the presidency. They knew now that he was as good a reactionary as any of them and they counted upon his support in defeating this provision for the control of the issue of securities by interstate carriers. They did not count in vain. With Mr. Taft's knowledge and convainance, they arranged a deal with the Democratic opposition in the senate whereby they not only struck from the bill this provision which was in accordance with the Republican platform and the many speeches of Mr. Taft's campaign, but they stopped the further efforts of the real progressives in the senate to make the railroad bill, of which this provision was a part, a genuinely effective and valuable measure. Then they inserted in the bill as a sop to the public clamor for real legislation a provision for the appointment of a commission which was to determine not the method by which the government was to exercise its right to control the issue of securities by interstate carriers, but whether or not the government had such power. The appointment of this commission was a stultification of the Republican platform and of every speech Mr. Taft had made in support of that platform. It was fair notice to the whole country that from that day forward no faith or credence could be given by the country to any declaration of any Republican platform upon which Mr. Taft might be running for office. But now, in the face of this incontrovertible fact, and of scores more of exactly similar purport and effect. Mr. Taft has the effrontery to stand before a public audience and denounce Theodore Roosevelt and present himself in the attitude of the one who has the right to feel aggrieved. It is an astounding exhibition of willingness to deceive the people of the country in the effort to secure office. Scholarship For Layton J. Wheaton.

CONGRESS Hold Third Annual Session at Old State Capitol. Successful Meeting. Delegates Pleased With Twin Cities. Many Able Negroes Present. THE MINNEAPOLIS RECEPTION. Largest Gathering Ever Assembled on Such Occasion. A Splendid Program and Appreciative Audience. The Symposium and Civic Social in honor of the visiting delegates and friends attending the Congress was a grand affair. The program opened with an "Overture" by Jeffries Orchestra. Invocation by Rev. T. J. Carter. Song, "America", led by Rev. Morrill; "Welcome", by John S. Wright, a citizen of whom "we are proud, who presented to the visiting guests an invitation to share our hospitality. "Response," by Atty. Wm. H. Harrison of Oklahoma City, Okla. who in most eloquent terms thanked the people in behalf of the Congress in an able and impressive manner. Piano solo, "Overture from William Tell," by Mdme. W. K. Bowle of Minneapolis, was the instrumental classic of the evening. She won a shower of applause. Mr. Gale P. Hilyer, (a graduate of the U. of M. and a son of Hon. Andrew F. Hilyer of Washington, D. C.) was introduced by the chair to present Dr. Cyrus Northrup. Pres. Emeritus of the Univ. Northrup. Mr. Hilyer told of the special interest taken in Negro Educational work by this learned educator. Dr. Northrup believes that education was the solution of all race problems. He advised the race to be patient, and that their reward was assured. As to social equality, he did not think that the races improved by amalgamation, that it was best to keep both races pure, although it was the right of individuals to do as they pleased. The next speaker was Prof. John J. Smallwood, one of the constructive educators of our age, a grandson of Nat Turner, a Virginia slave and a man who has established a Temperance and Industrial Institute at Claremont, Va., of which he is President. Prof. Smallwood sounded the note of warning to the race. He believed in intellectual and industrial education but proved that moral and economical education was necessary for the progress of any people. He made a strong plea to mothers for the proper home training of children, especially our girls, and that pains should be taken to see that they kept proper companionship that the future of the race lies in its women. Dr. Smallwood is an able orator. The soprano solo by Mdme. Addie Crawford-Minor, accompanied by Miss Alberta Bell, was the vocal feature of the program. Mdme Minor, the "Nightingale of the Northwest," is one of the best singers of her race, and Miss Bell is one of the coming concert-planists. The entire musical program was highly commendable. Billy D. Black's vocal and instrumental Quartette, rendered melodies that brought forth rounds of applause. Their original musical compositions were void of that usual dialect so often presented by Negro artists. The next speaker, Rev. G. L. Morrell, was a surprise to many who had never heard him. His rapid-fire, quick delivery and plain spoken truths, were interspersed with witticisms. Rev. Morrell is always ready to help a black man, and we know that he believes in equal rights for all. Hon. Albert H. Hall on "The Races and Universal Humanity," was very instructive and effective. He has the respect of the Negroes and they believe in his sincerity. He attended Universal Races Congress in London as has a reputation as a criminologist. Mr. Hall has been deeply interested in Negro peonage. He saw a great future for the Negro and his remarks were concluded amid prolonged applause. Special mention is due the ladies on the program. A paper, "Woman Suffrage," by Mrs. W. R. Morris, was a resume of the achievements of women of various races, and the progress towards the solution of civic problems. Mrs. Morris is a substitute teacher in the public schools. Miss Eva Walker, Dramatic Reader, won great applause. She displayed her race elocutionary talent to a great advantage. Benediction offered by Rev. M. W. Withers. After the program refreshments were served free, and a donation giv en to the Congress. Chas. Sumner Smith presided. Several young ladies served at the punch bowl, Mesdames. Ophelia Rice, John S. Wright, I. E. Glbbs, Miss Selina Newman, Dr. Jcs. L. Titus, Will M. Smith, Philip F. Hale, and Benj. F. Bullock, ably assisted by many whose names, space will not permit of mention. The piano used, was from the Cable Piano Co. The large Assembly Hall was packed with one of the most appreciative audiences ever assembled in our city. Minneapolis did her self proud and many visitors from St. Paul were present and they were outspoken in their praise, and it was voted the Educational Program of the Congress.

The following are excerpts from his columns. "NEGRO COLLEGEB" BY PROF. McCRORY. President of Biddle University. Rev. H. L. McCrory, of Biddle University, addressed the delegates of the National Negro Educational Congress on Friday night. He spoke on "Negro Colleges." Prof. McCrory said: "That Character and Efficiency should be the motto of the Negro race," that the college student should be as familiar with the writings of Isiah as of Shakespeare. The manhood of every race should be the highest result of any race. As to constructive education there could be no race or nation building without constructive thought, which we cannot have without we have been trained in books." Prof. McCrory thought that the Congress should adopt resolutions to standardize colleges. As to professional requirements, he advocated no limited form of Education. Many of our prominent Educators norrow down to the education advocated in their respective schools. He does not advocate the industrial training to the exclusion of the intellectual, or vice versa, but both are very necessary. Negro Colleges should be standardized. Many are colleges in name only. Our schools should not be called colleges unless they measure up to the standard set as to the curriculli and faculties. Rev. McCrory filled the pulpit of several Presbyterian churches during his visit. His dignified bearing and sound judgement commanded the respect and attention of all, and he was in every way the leading educational character of the Congress, and a credit to his Alma Mater, Biddle University of which he is now President. "BILLY" RECEIVES AN OVATION. "Billy" Williams, the governor's messenger, received the delegation in the Governor's office, last Thursday. He had guided them through the Capitol and after they had returned, they assembled in the Governor's private office and sang "America." Addresses were made by Mrs. Laura Hickman who spoke in endearing terms of the ability of Mr. Williams and his service to the people of Minnesota. Remarks by Thos. H. Lyles and Chas. S. Smith. The vault whose fixtures were designed by "Billy", was shown to the visitors. Keep Out of Politics. "A man with a law practice had better keep out of politics," is the conclusion of T. H. Devine, who held a proxy in the national committee for law, and was a delegate from that state. "Nearly every man that goes in for politics to the extent of getting and holding office is sure to lose his business and in the end comes out a disappointed man." At the same time many men like to leave a record of honorable service in important positions. Then there are others who think there is money in office, but are often mistaken. SUBSCRIBE FOR THE STAR.

Third Annual Gathering of Educators and Seekers After Knowledge Scheduled For Month of July Will Be Big Event—Varied Program of Subjects and Speakers. By GEORGE FRANCIS KING. Durham, N. C.-Durham is located on the highlands of the central part of the state, with a healthy and pleasant climate. During the hottest part of summer the weather is ideal. This city will soon be a Mecca for preachers and teachers from every section of the country. The summer school and chautauqua of the National Religious Training school will begin July 8, with a faculty composed of some of the ablest men and women from many of the noted colleges of the country. This institution has become a great educational factor in the development of the race. It has attained national prominence because of its farreaching influence. This is the third annual summer school of this great institution. It has presented such features from time to time as have placed it in a class by itself. The citizens of Durham and points contiguous to this busy educational center and world famed movements among our people are preparing for the many auspicious events of the school. From present indications the program for the sessions will draw hundreds of teachers, preachers and others interested in various other movements to this city. The spirit to be helpful and make the entire six weeks of the summer school and chautauqua one of vital import for the race and for the true enjoyment of those attending it is unique. Among the noted characters who will lecture and instruct are Dr. James H. Dillard, Drs. D. Webster Davis, W. E. B. DuBois, Professor Kelly Miller, Dr. J. E. Ford, J. C. Massee; the distinguished Bible teacher, Dr. S. N. Vass, the widely known Biblicist; Hon John C. Dancy, Drs. Jesse L. Hurlurb, W. Y. Chapman, Professor Jesse Johnson, Miss Halle Q. Brown, Edward Brigham, the famous dramatist, and Bishop George W. Clinton. Never before in the history of educational movements among Afro-Americans has there been given at one institution of learning for the race such a broad field for study and research work. Many social problems will be discussed. Dr. Shepard will certainly bring together a great concourse of thinkers and workers whose influence for good will leave a lasting impression upon the minds of the students. Any one interested in any phase of educational work will find at this institution a daily program that will be hard to excel by any of the great summer schools and Chautauquas held elsewhere. A prominent divine says all who are interested in religious work will miss an opportunity if they fail to take in the courses for pastors, evangelists, Young Men's Christian association workers, missionaries, settlement workers, deaconesses and specially prepared courses for laymen. Mrs. Clara A. Smith, a woman of much experience and rare culture, has been engaged for the teachers' training department. Professor T. Parker Smith, who has a national reputation as one of the most prominent directors of commercial courses, will be the director for this department. It is conceded by music lovers throughout the country that Professor F. A. Clark of Philadelphia is a musical genius. His music is used by many of the leading choirs. By being director of the music department with some of the ablest teachers, Professor Clark will make this feature of the school a strong one. The Chautauqua features of the summer school are far above the average. Every day some of the greatest lecturers of the country will speak. This phase of the movement is certainly an extraordinary one. Teachers and preachers and those interested in work for the uplift of the race will be doubly compensated by hearing these eminent speakers and come in direct touch with people from all sections, who are working for the well being of the masses. The summer school will begin July 8, and the ministers' conference will be held from July 6 to 13. All ministers in attendance upon the conference will be entertained for the week free of charge. Dr. Jesse L. Huriburt, the world famed Bible authority and teacher; Dr. W. Y. Chapman, the eminent scholar, pulpiteer and lecturer, will be special lecturers during the conference week. The other instructors and lecturers are: Professor W. G. Pearson, dean; Professor Charles H. Boyer, Professor W. H. Hannum, Professor T. A. Long, Professor P. W. Dawkins, Professor J. L. Murray, Professor F. A. Clark, Dr. E. H. Hunter, Mrs. Alice M. Dunbar, Miss Josephine Pinyon, Mrs. Clara A. Smith, Miss Bertha R. Perry, Mrs. Charlotte Hawkins Brown, Miss M. E. Phillips, Miss Ella Jackson, Miss Abby L. Williams, Miss Clara E. Scudder, Mrs. Elizabeth Wilson, Miss Cecelia Holloway, Mrs. Anna D. Shepherd and Professor T. Parker Smith. SOCIAL SERVICE WORKERS. Tribute Paid to Women Who Endeaver to Reform Delinquent Children. New York.—The June meeting of the Utopia Neighborhood club in this city, held the last week in the month, was largely attended. The Rev. Dr. William H. Brooks, pastor of St. Mark's M. E. church, and Mrs. B. Kemp took part in the opening exercises, which were held in the Mount Olive Baptist church, Dr. W. P. Hayes pastor. The meeting was held in the interest of the Detention Home For Colored Girls. Assistant Attorney General William H. Lewis of Washington and Ernest J. Coulter, former clerk of the children's court in this city, were the chief speakers for the occasion. In his forceful address, which was listened to attentively, Mr. Lewis said: "Of the many graduates of Amherst college none are doing more effective service than those engaged in the work of social service. Prominently among them is the Rev. C. H. Parkhurst, who gave to New York city its first awakening along social lines. District Attorney Whitman is also doing a most excellent work along the lines of social service. "Throughout the country there are graduates from this institution who are doing excellent work for the uplift of the human family generally. It is far easier to condemn than to save, and it is through just such agencies as women's clubs that this work is to be accomplished. "Under the social system which we live in the evil surrounding the young people of our race is destined to disappear through the courts of social evolution. It is impossible for the white people of this country to save themselves without saving us. We should not have to appeal to the public for funds to carry on an institution of this kind for colored girls, but there should be homes provided and supported by the state for all of its citizens alike." Mr. Coulter said: "Ten years ago the children of New York were treated as if they were thieves, thugs or drunkards. Conditions are greatly improved now, and the credit belongs to the no-ble woman who first conceived the idea of properly dealing with children." Mr. Coulter further said that if the children of our cities are not good we as citizens are responsible, because we should surround them with the best influences. "We hear so much of the delinquent boy and girl, but I want to tell you that the number of delinquent parents would astound you, and I hope the day is not far distant when there will be an institution for such parents. "There are fewer delinquent boys and girls among the colored people than any other race. This is remarkable in view of the fact that many of their parents labor under such tremendous opposition and obstacles." J. E. SHEPARD'S NEW HONOR. National Religious Training School's President Now a Doctor of Divinity. Musklingum college, Ohio, recently conferred the honorary degree of doctor of divinity upon President James E. Shepard of the National Religious Training school located in Durham, N. C. Dr. Shepard is the only man of the colored race to receive such recognition from the president and faculty of this institution. While Musklingum is one of the smaller colleges, it is recognized everywhere as being a great one. The late President Harper of Chicago university, Dr. Morehead, dean of Xenia Theological seminary; Dr. Lawrence, Hon. W. J. Bryan's pastor; Dr. McClenahan of the great Presbyterian church, Pittsburgh; Rev. J. Walter Liggitt and a host of others are graduates of this college. The institution boasts of the fact that 55 per cent of its male graduates are either in the ministry or the missionary work of the world. Such an honor as this coming to Dr. Shepard is a tribute worthily bestowed. CONFERENCE AT HAMPTON. Prominent Educators and Social Workers to Meet July 17. The sixteenth annual Hampton conference will be held at the Hampton (Va.) institute on July 17 and 18. The program will include reports from county school supervisors, facts from the 1010 census, work of the Negro Organization society, discussion of problems relating to health, agriculture and religious life, work of school administration, recreation and amusement in rural communities. Prominent white and colored social workers will deliver interesting and helpful addresses. All persons interested in the work for the betterment of their communities are cordially invited to attend the general and round table meetings of the Hampton Negro conference. Rewards Man Who Rescued Children. By his keen foresight in stopping a team of frightened horses in Philadelphia recently Shedwick Waters, Jr., of Paschall, Pa., saved the lives of more than half a dozen children. As a token of gratitude for his services Mr. Waters was awarded the sum of $5 and a vote of thanks by those interested in the welfare of the children. Larger Benefits For Sons of Virginia. The board of directors of the Society of the Sons of Virginia has recommended an increase in the benefits due financial members when ill and claims due to the nelts of deceased financial members. The recommendation of the board will be voted upon by the society at the first meeting in September. PRIEST M. BARNETT DODSON, AFRO-AMERICAN EDITOR, AMERICAN PRESS ASSOCIATION. National Negro Press Association. The next annual meeting of the National Negro Press association will be held in Chicago in August one day before the meeting of the National Negro Business league. As Chicago has a large number of papers published by members of the race it seems fit that every effort should be made on the part of the officials of the association to have a meeting of lasting benefit to members of the profession. Must Hold Republican Voters In Lines There is no question about the Negro vote being divided, says the Muskogee (Okla.) Climeter. A large number of Negroes voted the Democratic ticket in the last election, and a still larger number now threaten to register and vote the Democratic ticket next fall. We must stop this exodus by a close organization, and the work must be started now. Extent of Colored Soldiers' Record. The war record of the colored soldier extends from Bunker Hill to Cuba and up to the ramparts to the top of San Juan hill. The late President William McKinley commissioned during the Spanish-American war some 266 colored officers, and there were more than 15,000 colored soldiers who gladly shouldered their muskets and went to the front in defense of the American government against the enemy in that terrible conflict. They demanded themselves well and came back home amid the plaudits of the nation. Color Prejudice and Politicians. This race question bobs up at the most unseemly times, and especially when folks are running for office, says the Baltimore Afro-American Ledger. It is an awful thing to be continually explaining why one did this or that. But as long as men will set their prejudices stand in their way such things will continue to happen, and this has reference to Jew, Negro and gentile. --- Progress of Foreign Mission Work. The work of foreign missions was wably presented at the general con- ference of the A. M. E church, held in Kansas City, Mo., recently, by Bishop W. H. Heard of Monrovia, West Afrlen; Dr. W. W. Beckett, secretary of missions; Bishop J. Albert Johnson of Cape Town, South Africa; Rev. H. H Stendy of Sierra Leome, and the Rev. J. P. James, who represents the denomination in Samana, Santo Domingo. The progress of the work was described, and plans for the future were outlined. Freeman Puts the Race on Guard. Watch and pray during these political times. Can't tell what the future has in store for the race. says the indianapolis (Ind.) Freeman Prepare for acceptable citizenship. Depopulate the jails and workhouses and other places of confinement. Major Cunningham's Work Appreciated The colored people of Cadiz, O., were quick to recognize the efficient services of Major David Cunningham, member of the Ohio state constitutional convention, in his contention to have the word "white" stricken from the new constitution, which will come up for adoption at the fall election this year. Major Cunningham is a believer in equal rights and justice for all citizens without regard to race, color or creed. His success in the convention is the success of all Americans who believe in justice and equality according to law. Hon. Harry C. Smith also deserves much credit for the part which he has taken in co-operating with Major Cunningham in matters of legislation. Hampton Institute Helps Farmers. The term for the short course in agriculture at the Hampton (Va.) institute began on Wednesday, Jan. 3, to hold for four weeks. The course is offered to meet the needs of farmers. Both Races to Live Together in Peace. Dr. William J. Thompkins, in an address before the National Negro Educational congress recently held in Denver, is credited as having said: "We abhor the mere expression of social equality as the average white man sees it. We ask no special favors, but we do ask for a square deal to make opportunities for men. The Negro is here to stay. He and the white man are tied together by location, by education by language, by custom and by blood. They cannot be separated if they would." IT PAYS TO ADVERTISE. We claim to be the best advertising medium of the Twin Cities, and when you're not advertised in the Twin City Star, you need not show—that's all. Because the people read the Star for the news, especially in Minneapolis. The day of the Town Crier is past. Be up-to-date, Advertise and Pay for it. A newspaper is the best medium. It reaches the homes and firesides of people who attend public entertainments. These people never go out and loiter around and read hand-bills and hang-up notices. They read the Twin City Star.

Western University, Quindaro, Kansas, is to operate a Summer School, this summer beginning June 10th, just after Commencement, and running six weeks, or until July 19th. The Industries, Manual Training, Pedagogy, Psychology and a Special Course in Instrumental and Public School Music will be given by a selected Faculty. Special lecturers like Dr. L. B. Moore, of Howard University and Prof. G. N. Grisham, of Kansas City, will be heard from time to time. The indications are that the attendance will be large from Missouri, Kansas, Oklahoma, Texas, Arkansas, Nebraska, Iowa and adjoining states. The location of Western University is one surpassing beauty, and President Kealing proposes to look after the Social as well as the Scholastic features of the Session. NEGRO LABORERS vs. VAGRANCY Many Negro laborers are employed on the new Post Office Building, and it is probable that more could obtain employment, if they would apply. There is no excuse for vagrancy in Minneapolis among our people. There are contractors who prefer Negro labor on asphalt pavements, buildings, etc., and it is up to the Police Dept., to see that all Negroes are employed. Vags must "get busy."

"Wherever any race or group of people learn to do a common thing in an uncommon way, by putting brain, skill and conscience into labor, that race or group of people is likely to solve all the problems that surround them."—Dr. Washington. Revs. McDonald and Fr. Lealtad, Thos. H. Lyles, Walker Williams, R. Hopkins Johnson, W. P. Lewis, A. J. Roberts of St. Paul and Philip F. Hale and Chas. S. Smith of Minneapolis, were active during the entire sessions, and they had to be in the game every minute. THE COALS OF FIRE Get together, the Congress has adjourned. Factions must be united. The people of the Twin Cities can not afford to suffer on account of the personal issues of individuals. Atty McGhee, B. S. Smith, Esq. and even John Dillingham are valuable citizens and we can't peaceably get along without them. The Delegates, the Citizens, the Star, and they themselves regret that this tempest in a tea pot was unnecessary. Get together. Get on the inside to curb the evils. You can't help it by knocking from without. We are sorry that these great educators (and there were some) were subjected to these conditions. But we are proud to say that the people made a record in many instances. Concerted effort and a desire toward race betterment must prevail, and it will, or the people will be sorely disappointed and previously affected. "Let us have peace," end this factional strife, and we will rise by leaps and bounds. THE NEGRO'S DUTY. "What the Negro must do is to contend for his rights in the best spirit without losing his head and he will find the genuine white people the world over respecting them. First, let him respect himself and others will respect him."—(Charleston, S. C. Messenger.) REV. J. W. ROBINSON, A. M. Author of "Mile Stones in Negro History." Rev. J. W. Robinson, A. M. of St. Albans, W. Va., a delegate to the Negro National Educational Congress, is a graduate of Shaw University, Raleigh, N. C. Rev. Robinson was elected to the principalship of Roanoke Institute, Elizabeth City, N. C., after completing his college course in 1898, which position he resigned in 1901 to accept the position of supervisor of the Colored Schools of Clarksburg, W. Va. Mr. Robinson resigned his position at Clarksburg to accept a more lucrative position at St. Albans, W. Va. He is pastor of one of the best churches in the state and principal of the colored, graded school of St. Albans. Rev. Robinson is the author of "Mile Stones in Negro History," which has a large circulation. This book has been commended and largely quoted by such magazines as The Literary Digest. He is a brilliant speaker and his quiet and unassuming manner won him many friends. FROM THE CONGRESSIONAL RECORD. The Congress was not a financial success. Few believed it would be, the contending forces had done their work, but what credit have we given Rev. J. R. White, who brought it, and who gave us the good we received by having such great men among us. Let us remember Rev. White and Editor Adams, and if in doing this thou shall forget the "Star" and "Guide", a plague on those that follow. MINNEAPOLIS MADE GOOD. A basket picnic, the only educational reception, and a small donation. Every arrangement perfect. Minneapolis is the home of hospitality, that's why we stay. THEY SHUT OFF HIS STEAM. Rev. William Gray brought a steam roller from Chicago to the Congress, but lost his steam and took a roller for Chicago before adjournment. Rev. Gray promised to give Chicago to the next Congress, but they doubted his power to deliver the goods, and the fault was all his own. His persistent proclivities and rough procedure, caused his unpopularity and the Star prophet predicted his fate on the opening day, "and it came to pass." Miss Sadie Marshall was taken seriously sick last week but is rapidly recovering. PROMINENT FEMALE DELEGATES. Mrs. Julia Caldwell Frazier, Asst. Prin., Dallas, Tex. High School. Mrs. M. E. Moore, Waco, Tex. Mrs. Gertrude Culberson, Clinton, Ia. Mrs. Nannie O. Burden, Kansas City; Mrs. Alice Thompson, Muscatine, Ia. Mrs. Nannie Barnes, Chicago. Mrs. Julia Embry, Editor Colorado Springs Eagle. Miss Marie Burgette, Milwaukee, Wis., were among the prominent lady delegates. Dr. C. H. Thomas of Madison, Wis. "The Old Roman," was one of the conspicuous characters of the Congress. He had the aggressive air of a university leader and the politeness of a Chesterfield, and won a host of admirers. He often revelled in oratory to the delight of many, and was in every way the life of the occasion. Editor Jno. D. Cooke of the Wisconsin Weekly Defender, attended the Congress and offered his columns for the Publicity of the Congress. Dr. Ward and Prof. Walker of Indianapolis, were lobbying for their city, but were unsuccessful. Taken on Lawn of Old Capitol.

The third annual meeting of the Negro National Educational Congress which will be held at St. Paul, July 15-19, bids fair to be more successful than either of the former two. The earnest effort of the leaders in the movement to get away from "professional negroism" and to elevate the race as a whole by raising intellectual and moral standards is meeting with an increasing degree of sympathy on the part of all real friends of the race and of human progresses in the abstract. Entirely too much is heard of the negro as a race and too little of him as a citizen who is an integral part of our social and economic system, who cannot be kept in ignorance without detriment to the whole people, who cannot become immoral without creating social plague spots and who cannot above all things, be the victim of injustice and injury without corresponding and reflected harm on American institutions. Especially during exciting political campaigns a great deal is heard of the negro as a voter, and a great many foolish blacks lay entirely too much stress on the Jack Johnson's of their race. The farther the race can get away from the negro politicians, and particularly from the negro prize-fighters, and the nearer it can get to the best representatives of the negro as a citizen, the better it will be for all concerned. The objects of the Negro National Educational Congress are closely nected with these principles and for that reason the movement has received the support of the governors of most of the Northern states and of country. Education is the very keynote of citizenship, and citizenship is the key to the solution of most of the vexing problems of our national life. The young man or young woman, no matter of what race or color, who is honestly ambitious to get an education is on the upward road and can rise superior to most of the obstacles to advancement. Doors may be barred to some that are opened to others, but in the long run the world respects and sympathizes with those who make an honest and earnest effort to better their condition.-The Kansas City Journal, July 8, 1912. TWIN CITY STAR A REAL NEWSPAPER. A newspaper isn't simply a bare chronicler of events. It is a personality. It comes into your house almost as a member of your family. What sort of a person do you like to have visit you? He ought to be honest, courageous, no hypocrite, and a gentleman, with a real interest in you, ready to lend a hand if you need help. Cheerfulness and good humor are excellent qualities, and a wide range of interests. What do you find in The Star? It has opinions, of course, and it speaks them out freely. They are its own and they are not influenced by outside interests. The square deal is its platform. In handling news it observes the decencies and amenities of life. It never wantonly brings shame or sorrow to any home. Its advertisements are clean. If the Twia City Star does not bring you something of interest in any particular issue, it has failed by so much that week. It takes of its hat and apologizes for having bored you as a visitor. But it trusts this doesn't often happen. Not often, does it? SHOULD BE READ BY EVERY NEGRO. Negro Year Book and Annual Encyclopedia. The Negro Year Book, which has just been published under the auspices of Tuskegee Institute, is the result of a systematic attempt to supply the growing demand from all parts of the United States and many portions of the Old World for accurate and concise information in regard to the history, progress and present status of the Negro Roce. It is based on a large extent on the inquiries that have come to the Institute and have been turned over for reply to the Department of Research of which Monroe N. Work, the author of this work, is the head. Among the subjects treated in the work are: "A Review of the Negro in 1911," "The Economic Progress of the Negro," "The Negro in the Religious Field," Negro Education," "Negro Soldiers and Heroes," "A Chronological History of the Negro in America." It contains directories of Negro Banks, Negro Towns, Business Leagues, Hospitals, Newspapers, and National and Fraternal Organizations. There are also carefully classified lists of books and articles relating to the Negro. The Year Book which is bound in paper has 229 pages. The information is aranged in a concise, systematic form so as to make it easy of reference. The book is not published as a business venture although it may be so later, provided it finds a sufficient number of readers. In order to determine whether there is sufficient demand for the Year Book to warrant its continued publication in succeeding years a price of 25c has been placed upon it, postage 5c. A considerable reduction will be made to persons desiring ten copies or more. WRITE TODAY. ADDRESS, NEGRO YEAR BOOK COMPANY, TUSKEGEE INSTITUTE, ALABAMA. MRS. WASHINGTON FOR PRESIDENT. Mrs. Booker T.

Francis, President of the Minnesota Women's Federation desires to call attention to the fact that special effort is being made on behalf of Tuskegee Institute to raise finance through popular subscription. Very little has been done by our people in this section of the country. Contributions of one dollar or more will be thankfully accepted. It is urged that members of the Federation and all others who desire to contribute to so worthy a cause in Minnesota will forward one dollar or more to Rev. H. P. Jones, Pastor of St. James A. M. E.
