Pretoria. August 9,-Eyerythlng was
prepared in the plot TO make Lord Roberts
a prisoner and shoot the British officers,
and the conspiracy Was only discovered at
the last moment. The conspirators num-
bered about fifteen. They had planned 10
set Are TO the houses in the extreme
western part of the city, hoping that the
troops would be concentrated there. The
plan was that the c0nsprators were
forebly to enter all the houses occupied
by British officers, these houses having
been previously marked. and kill their oo-
eupanfs.
All the Boer sympatnizers were au-
quainted with the plot and several had
been told off TO secure the person Of Lord
Roberts and hurry him to the nearest
commando. Horses had been obtained for
this purpose. Then the British learned
the names OF the ringleaders, who were
put under arrest. The affair has caused a
tremendous sensation.

TO TEST SUFFRAGE LAW.
Represen ative Afro Am ericans Meet ard
Take Definite Action in the Matter.

An important conference of Afro.
Americans was held here Saturday, at
which the testing of the suffrage law
Legislation of the Southern States, es.
pecially Louisiana, was thoroughly dis
cussed. Among those present were
T. Thomas Fortune, IF New York,
chairman Of the executive committee
Of the National Afro American Council;
Mr.. Jesse Lawson, of New Jersey,
chairman Of the sub-executive commit.
tee; Representative White, of North
Carolina; Mr.. Thomas l.. Jones, of Vir.
ginia; Mr.. William Calvin Chsse, Mr..
Edward E. Cooper, Mr.. Daniel Murray,
Of the Congressional Library, Prof
William II. Richards, dean of the law
department of Howard University;
Prof Bruce Evans, and others.
The conference was not held under
the auspices Of the National Afro
American Council, but it was decided
to indorse the action Of the, Council In
determining to bring to finaI test the
constitutionality Of the suffrage clause
OF the Louisiana constitution, and a
sufficient amount of money was raised
to insure the instution of a proper case
in Louisiana and to see that it reaches
the United States Supreme Court for
final adjunctlon if necessary.
Responsible persons in New Orleans
were instructed by telegraph see that
the purposes of the conference were
carried out at once at the expense of the
conference.-the Washington Post.

can never forgive the Negroes for
looking upon them with the contempt
they deserved. But the pitisble thing
about it is that no one rose in the Sem
ate to rebuke this old savage for utter
ing his infamous sentiments on the
floor. All knew, of course, what he
was and were not surprised at his ad-
Vccacy of anything frcm petty larceny
to burgalry, and from midnight maraud
ing to murder, But he should have
been denounced to his face by some
decent member cf the Senate. 1t may
be remembered here, that if the United
States has no better civilization to give
TO Its new possessions than that repre-
sented by Tiliman, may God have
mercy on the poor people Of the distant
islands. The worst they ever got from
their most cruel chieftains, the rule Of
cannibals and naked ssvages, would
be mercy compared to what they would
get from TilIman and bis hordes. It
is an old maxim that "In the country
of the bind the one eyed man is king"
AS Tillman has but one eye, the other
no doubt being lost in one Of his muir
derous brawls, the maxim seems espec.
tally made to tit him. What must be
the moral status or intellectual grade
Of people who selected such q Great
ure as their leader and Spokesman in
the Senate chamber? The sooner South
Carolina overturns these murderous
desp3ts, restores power to her educated
classes, the sooner she will reinstate
herself in the esteem of respectable
people.-Tne India nspolis World.

" HERE WE DO THE BEST.

Some Comparison That Ought to Cause
the Negro 10 Think Seriously -Coun-
try VS.. the City.
Some figures by Census Bureau Off =
cials from Virginia reports, as a basis
Of comparison for later census returns,
bear out the contention Of many south
ern papers that the Negro do better in
dustrially and morally, on the farm
than in the city. 1t is shown that the
farms owned by colored men In 1892
was assessed at 274 per cent of all SIM
liar property, and in 1898, 1852 per cent.
Here is relative gain in six years of
very nearly one third. This satisfac'
tory showing of colored men on the
farms of Virginia is not, however, re-
fl cIed by the ownership of realty in
the eighteen largest cities of the state
The property owned by them in the
cities In 1892 was 3.14 per cent, and in
1898 it was "a per cent less relative
increase than that in the country. In
the smaller to WINS the Negroes did bet.
ter than IN the cities the increase from
1892 20 1898 being from rs to 6S4 per
cent. 1t is to be noted that the relative
ownership of prep srty by the colored
man is the largest in the small towns
being nearly twice as great as that of
the race in large cities sor among the
farms. Taking all forms of real estate
including buildings and lands in Vir-
ginia it ls found that the colored man
in 1892 possessed 8 1s per cent of all
realty, while in 1898 they possessed $40
per cent. "If the colored peop'e main
tain the same relative increase for the
next century" commented q census of.
fetal, "thelr ownership of realty would
be relatively the same as the whites. ~

A NATIONAL DISGRACE

and Ballot-Bo Suffer.
Inthe course of the debate on the Haw
allan suffrage bill, Senator Tillman, of
South Carolina, said:
Finally, after the bayonet had come to us
again in 1876, we rose in Righteousness and
right. We took the government, We stuffed
the ballot boxes, we bu ldozef The niggers
ard we shot 'eT. And we are not ashamed OF
IT. The PEOPLE of South Carolina, in their
constitution, have done their level best to
prevent the niggers from voting. What now
ask ou to do is to give the Kanakas and
Portuguese of the Bawaaln Islands the same
power of suffrage as we In South Carolina
have given the niggers.
Think of Senator of the United
States giving utteraDce to such senti
ments as these IN the highest legisla'
tive body in the land, and in the face
of the whole civilized world. In the
space of these few lines quoted above,
Senator Tillman confesses himself to
be bsllot'box suffer, a bulldozer, a
usurper and a murderer. Not only
does he openly confess guilt of all
these crimes, but he actually boasts of it
should think not. 1t would take more
than few such things as whole
saiemurder and political scoundrel
ism to make Tillman ashame. The
man is savage if there ever was one.
In the South he belongs to that class
known as "poor white trash" There
never was a time when ali Negroes high
or low, did not look down with con
tempt upon the element to which Till
man belonged. This was true in slavery
days and the "poor white trash'' con-
ceived an undying hatred for the Ne
gro. While slavery lasted they co lld not
wreak their vengeance. as the masters
protected their slaves from the ignorant
trash" who were regarded by the edu
Gated whites as 40 better than Digger
Indians. After the war the opportuni-
ties of these savages came. The Negroes,
no longer having the protection oftheir
former owners, were left to the mercy
of the "poor white trash Tillman be-
came leader among lhese ignorant
barbarians, sort of Sitting Bull, with
ten times the savagery OF the old Sioux
leader, without half his ability. His
warcry was determination Of the "nig
gers" and the favorite psstime of him
self and his bloodthirsty followers was
numbering helpless colored people. In
course Of time, by meane of the Farmers
Alliaucs movement, the Tillman crowd
got On top in South Carolina. They
overthrow the rule of the Hamptons
and the Buffers and the respectable
white people Of The state and installed
themselves in power, like 40 many
wild bulls IN q china shop. 1t was a
sorry day for South Carolina when she
exchanged her cultivated sons for the
unspeakaply vulgar creatures who rose
to power as the result Of "poor trash"
movement The old state bowed her
head in shame when she saw the coarse
and savage TilImsn elevated to the
seat once graced by John q. Calhoun.
AS his colleague, they sent drunken
sot and ignoramous who did all he
could in his feeble way to help TilIman
bring disgrace upon the state.
The result is low before us in
spectacle which may we'll cause blush
