Beaver Dam, March 3l.-The Union

The miners asked so cents on the ton
for mining coal and an advance of 20
per cent. on all-day labor and the OPP

per cent. on day labor. This strike will
affect nearly every country in Western

ATTORNEY GENERAL MONTAGUE
An interesting question in connection
with the proposed Constitutional Con-
vention is whether or not the people
will be permitted to vote for the adop-
ton or rejection of such an organic law
rs may be drafted by the convention.
Attorney Montague said to-
day he was not prepared 10 say posi-
lively that If n convention should be
held it's work would become the or
ganic law OF the State without being
submitted to the people. He had not
Investigated the matter carefully.
The Attorney General was of opin
ion, however, that the. Legislature
might have authority To provide that
the Constitution drafted by the conven
ton should be submitted to the people
and approved by them before it should
go into effect.
SET TO THINKING.
OF the large number of officials inter
viewed here, all showed interest In the
question as advocated by the Nir
Jginian-Pilot, and they have been set to
thinking over the matter as they never
had before.

Kansas City, Mo. special After visit
10 the East, including the cities Of Chi
cago, Pittsturg, Allegheny, Washing
ION, Philadelphia and points in Viz
ginia, desire 10 speak Of Avery Trade
school In this communication.
The colored American., 1900-08-18

Avery Trade School is situated in
Allegheny, Pa. and is the Oldest insti-
tuition of learning for colored youths in
the United States.
The school is well located in the city,
which makes it desirsbIe place for
the edues tion of children. My visit
there last month and a thorough exam
1nation Of the handiwork of the stu
dents have convinced me that Avery
School occupies high rank in educa.
tional circles Each department of the
school is run on high business prlnci-
pies, and in addition to the literary
training, a finished trade is given to
each student, boy and girl alike, who
will hold out to the end.
The people of Pennsylvania and ad.
jacent States have an opportunity in
Avery School that ia rarely given.
With free tuition, all that is required Of
the boy or girl are good behaviour,
promptness, regularity and earnestness
The work I examined In the millinery,
dress.making, tailoring and mechanical
departments would do credit to older
and more experienced hands. The
trustee board is composed of set of
wide-sWsks and energetic business
men.
DR.. Geo. g. Tulfley, president of the
board Of trustees is man Of wide
awake business experience and ever
working for the elevation of his race.
With his energy and easy manner he is
gradually forging his Institution to the
front. Prof. Jos. D. Mahoney. mana
ger and director Of the school is the
man for such a responsible position.
He Is a man Of tact and talent and has
an earnestness and interest in the work
that knows no bounds. The people of
Allegheny and Pittsburg are fortunate
in being able to secure the energy of
such gentleman 30 we'll qualified for
all departments Of the work.
With the completion Of the new an
mex the school is the better prepared to
carry on and extend its work of use.
fulness. The new building is COM
plete in it's every detail and with the
nominal sum for board will hardly &C.
commodate all who will apply this fall.
Schools that furnish a complete indus
trial training are few.
The demand Of the age is for this
kind of training among all classes, and
the schools that are being equipped
will have the confidence and support Of
the public.
Our boys and girls must learn bust.
ness and trades. The lines are being
drawn so tightly that we will be forced
into all kinds of business If we would
receive the accommodations we deserve
and covet.
Our young people must be educated
to work, and I know of no place so
we'll adapted and so we'll managed as

THE AFRICAN QUESTION.
(By Mary A. Blackburn. J

(By Mary A. Blackburn
What shall we do with the Africans,
That race SO INTERIOR
Is the question they are discussing,
Debating it Ger and Ger.
Some want to send them to Africa,
And the reservation plan
Is favored too, by others who
Belong to an upper clan.
Far above the poor. black Africans,
Who should never dared been born,
For there seems to be no place for them
They a. doomed to be forIorn.
I'm wondering what these folks would do
About all their dirty work
II they sent them Off to Africa
And they had none here to shirk.
They say they are all such lazy things
And then. they are so black,
"Why wouldn't begin to teach one"
Says simple, idiot Jack.
What was IL We heard long years ago,
About stree and equal men,"
They surely didn't mean what they said
Or, has sentiment changed since then?
What do you suppose God made them for?
What will he do with them when
The judgment day is come to us all
And ali Of the Saxon men.
Who are feeling SO far above them,
Because their skin is 80 white
Rise up in one, great. sui ging body,
In the realms OF perfect light.
And the noise they make Is rumbliDg
Throughout the heavenly dome
While they're pushing their way up higher
Right close to the great, white throne?
Perhaps they will IL en- muster courage
And very Justify shout,
"Say st. Peter ou at the gateway,
Put these nigg ers rig ht straight out"'
But fancy the one great Ruler,
OF this mighty universe,
Who is no respecter Of person
And does only the wicked curse.
Will look sround him gently, calmly
Surveying earths upper clan
While he's saying in accents firmly,
'You seem not to know the plan,
Whic b tried to make SO plain,
That way fariug man though a soel
Might not be erring therein.
'But repeat my message clearly
ALI who believe in the Son,
Who obey him and confess him
And whosoever will msY coJne."
All, dear brothers, sisters and worldfings
That's fact We can't dispute
We're are all one and equal to our God
And his word We cay.t refute.
What the ugh the skin be as black as mid
night,
II our hearts are good and pure
We will enter In at Heavens gate
salvation is certain, sure.
