THE exciting incidents at Emporia
bring to mind similar trying times
through which our own county
passed upon two occasions not long
since. Lancaster, however, was
more fortunate then Greensville
county--in that we had few cool
heads to whom the outraged populace
gave heed. Tie law was permitted
to take its course, and today there is
none to regret that GOODNESS and
were permitted to have
sway. Whenever we read of these
unfortunate affairs we feel like utter
ing the words of the praying Phari-
see-though not in a boastful spirit,
but in one of humility and true
thankfulness.

The National Negro Business League
will be able to report the wealth of the
race at double what 1t is today. The
number of delegates at the Boston
meeting represented personally about
one million dollars in money. II the
plan of the League is strictly followed,
1t Will be easy to assemble a number OF
Individuals representing many hun.

L is TO be hoped that the leaders of
the race In the various communities
throughout the country Will act prompt
~ upon the suggestion of the League
and thus stimuli ate the race In money
making, and the Guilty atom of busi

already commenced to organize. A

The plan OF the L aague can be made a

THE COMPILER TALKS.
10 Tells the Story of the National Negro
Business League and Gives Reasons
for its Organization.

4inrfion where there is a marked ab.
soore Of both moral and intellectual fit
ness. The National Negro Business
League which held Its first meeting at |
Roston I47t August was called for the
nurpose Of stimulating the money get
ting habit in the Negro race Mr.
Rocker T. Washingt n conceived the |
nan and invited the cplOred business |
men of the country to meet with him
there and help devise some plan TO that |
end. aud at the same time some plan /
was being thus devised. there might be |
assembled a number of business ColOred |
men together, who would, In sense,
be representative OF the progress the Ar |
ro American race Is making along busi- |
ness lines. The world had beard of our |
orators and scholars, hat the record Of
the Negro business man was sealed |
book. Thus the object of the Boston |
meeting was two fold, frat to show |
wha. we are doing in business and |
second, to perfect a scheme that would |
stimulate more business In the future.
The meeting at Boston has served the |
purpose Of the call TO a considerable ex
tent. First, no meeting of cOlored peO
pie since the war has been 80 universal
Iy commended by the newspapers OF
this country, perhaps, as this one, both
as to the personel of the meeting itself,
and as to its timelineas The white edi-
tors have We'd with themselves, seem
ingly in praising the good order, de.
cOrum, smooth and business like way
in which it was conducted. They
seemed surprised that Negro meeting
could be thus conducted They were
able to chronicle two full days sessions
Including half Of each night) of the
proceedings of a Negro convention
where not a single "point of order" was
raised. Mirabile dictu! While itiwas no
doubt bitter disappointment to them,
yet, the fact had to be 80 written, for it
was the truth. These newspaper com
ments have no doubt made sentiment
In the races favor, and strengthened
our cause with our friends who are
quick to grasp such expressions In our
favor. aud hurl them in the teeth OF
the slanderer and evil wisher, The
conduct of the convention, therefore,
ought to be source Of sincere pride Oh
the part Of every we'll wisher in the
race in that it has helped, as [ believe,
1t has IN encouraging our friends to be-
lIeve more firmly in the righteousness
Of our cause, and is prophetic OF new
and more ardent friends for the future.
Secondly, the meeting passed reso'
luton making the National Negro
Business League permanent. Its pur'
pose is not TO make money for itself, 1t
has no capital stock, it is not designed
to make money for its officers or mem
bers. but rather TO send out stimulating
literature from tin TO lime to the
leaders in every Negro community IN
the United States, asking them to call
the people together and organize some
cooperative business enterprise either
among the masses or by few. No at
tempt is made to dictate what business
shall be o-gauized, but each communi'

Death Of a Carson Favo1.te.

the death of Miss Edith Jones, only
daughter of the late Governor Jones
That her death caused deep regret in
this com munity does lot express the
sorrow that is evidenced by everyone
who comments on her untimely and
unexpected end.
Miss Edith Jones was one uf the
fairest daug hters of Nevada. ami uad
enaeared herself to everyone who had
the pleasure of knowing her. Her
manners were those Of a sweet, refined
young lady, and one Of the pure dispo-
sitiohs that win only friendship and re-
tain it. She grew from childhood to
budding womanhOod in Carson, and
her uutimely calling to the Great
Father casts a gloom on all who ever
met her. 1t was only a few weeks ago
that Miss Edith departed for Mills
Seminary where she expected to finish
| her education, and her death is in a
measure due to over study, as it was
her aim in life to better herself in
knowledge.
At the death of her father. Governor
John f. Jones. she was selected to Ter
