TuSkegee Graduates Leave New
 York for Africa
BOUND FOR HE WEST COAST
Pupils from Booker T. Washington's Famous School Engaged by the German Government to In
 struct Natives-Plans

From the New York Evening Post.
 Sailing from New York today on the Hamburg American Line steamer Graf Waldersee were four young colored men from Booker T. Washington's school at Tuskegee, Ala, who go to the west coast of Africa under the auspices of the Ger man government to teach cotton raising and general agriculture to the natives in the German colony there. They take with them ten bushels of cotton seed of the most approved varieties, cotton gin, probably the first ever seen in that part or Africa Qf there has ever been one in the continent at alb, lumber wagons, full outfit of agricultural tools In general and stock of vegetable seeds.
 This expedition has been referred to as the most important step in the develop ment of the cotton industry since Eli Whitney invented the cotton gin. Cotton has been raised for generations-centuries in fact-in Africa. The natives have raised the crop, in a poor way, in the very part of the continent to which the expedition goes but they have not understood how to cultivate it properly, and the crop has been small in quantity and poor in quality. Every portion of the work has been done in the most primitive way. Even the pick ing of the seeds from the staple has been done by hand. Last year about thirty acres of cotton were planted in this colony under government supervision and better culti- vated. This year the government proposes to begin the cultivation of the crop on still broader and more systematic basis.
 With view to doing this the representa- tives of the German government arranged with the Tuskegee Institute to send four men who are skilled in the best methods of the cultivation of the crop. These men are hired by the government, which pays them a salary and their travelling expenses. From Hamburg they are to go by coasting steamer to the seaport of Lome, and from there inland. Three of the men are grad uates of the institute. Two come from the agricultural department and have had years of training on the schools planta- tion. The third man Is a graduate of the mechanical department of the school. He goes to look after repairs to the machinery and tools which they take with them, and is also capable of building many utensils which may be needed The lumber wagon taken, for instance, was built in the shop of the Tuskegee Institute in which class of students are all the time learning the wheelwrights trade. These three men look forward to spending years, if not all of
The age-herald., 1900-11-18

their lives, in Africa, although they hope to return to this country at more or less frequent intervals. As one of them said, in speaking of the work which they go to do, q feel as if I was going back to my old home to carry back there sore part of what I have learned in thls country" part of Africa a few generations ago.
 The fourth member of the party IS J. N. Galloway, a colored man, who has been the manager of the schools farm for several years This farm is plantation of sev- eral hundred acres, large part of which Is cultivated by the students each year under his supervision. MT. Galloway ex- poets to remain in Africa for a year or more to get the enterprise well establish ed there. It is an interesting fact that his grandfather, who was formerly a slave in Tennessee, went to this same part of Africa, and died there not so very many years ago. This man bought his free dom a few years before the civil war. Ac- cording to the law at that time slave who had freed himself in this way was obliged to have some white man vouch for him, MT. Galloway says, and this fact led his grandfather eventually to leave this country and go back to the land from which his people had come.
 The colony to which these men go is call ed Togo-It is on the west coast, north of the Gulf of Guinea, and lies between Da- honey and Ashantee. This is the part of Africa from which the greatest number of slaves were brought. The ultimate desti- nation of the party is a settlement sixty miles inland called Misahohe. Togo is about half as large as the State of Ala bama; that means thatit has an area of about 30,000 square miles. The native pop ulation is estimated to be about 1,000 900 The three men who are to remain there represent three different states in the South, and will, threfore, have the advant- age of understanding the cultivation of cot ton in various soils and under varying con ditione One of them, John Robinson, comes from Bennettsville, s. C.; another Allen Burks,. is from Tallassee, Ala, while the third. Shepard Harris, Is from Maconf Ga.
 They never had been in New York be- fore or in any very large city, until they started North on this trip, and they were intensely Interested in what they saw here Wall street was one of the places which they asked to be directed to. When asked how they felt about going so far away from home, they looked little homesick.
 The machinery and tools which the men
The age-herald., 1900-11-18

carry are of the best patterns. The cot ton-gin has a condenser and feeder. The ploughs which they take have an assort- ment of adjustable points, to be used at different stages of the crop. They carry three different kinds of cotton seed. One of these Is called the "Peterkin:" this is a favorite variety over large section of the South the other two which they will try are the Russell Big Bale" and the Fruit" There has been some question as to whether the seed of cotton which flour ishes in this country will do well in Af- rica It has been said that the eseed of the Egyptian cotton does not do well in this country. They will also experiment with the native seed, and see if this cannot be improved by careful cultivation.

JELKs OF BARBOUR ELECTED.
From the Scale Register.

From the Scale Register
 In the election of Hon. w. D. Jelks to the presidency of the State Senate the press has been recognized, and it should ap- preciate it. His election was not a sur prise, as he has been prominent in the par ty for several years, and was very popular with the members of the Senate two years ago. He has the ability and will make a model presiding officer, and in case our be- loved Governor-elect should not recover from his present serious illness the mantle could not fall on shoulders where it would be so fittingly worn as on those of our old friend Jelks. When the present Senate shall have finished it's labors there will be no one of it's members who will have done more for the people of the State than it's presiding officer, and the people will invite him to higher honors.
