HIS Own Trap.

There is a-young man in the pension
office who is buying house on the
Installment plan at a town somewhere
between this city and Baltimore, and
his dear little wife lives out there. II
g his wont to come in early of a morn
ing and to go out again on the $40
train when his days work is done. A
few days ago he met an old friend from
Chicago, and, yielding to the entreaties
of that old friend, he decided to spend
the evening in town. He was so afraid
wife would feel hurt if she knew that
he had deliberately planned an even
ing's good time without counting her
in that he manfully resolved to deceive
her. Accordingly as he came away
from the office he went to a telegraph
office and sent this message to her:
''Unavoidably detained Missed $50
train. Will be out later"
1t was a great deal later when he
reached his happy home. Wife met
him at the door, and there was a look
in her eye that every married man
learns to know and inStinctively to
dread.
did you get my message precious?"
he asked as he kissed her tenderly,
holding his breath meanwhile as a pre-
cautionary measure.
Yes, dear" she made answer, and

dear" that way you can cut loose from

No man Of any race Is more complete
ly identified Wi the commercial in
teress of his community than is Mr.
Church with those Of Memphis. His
name is connected with every great
movement undertaken, looking to the
growth and Advancement Of that city.
In every printed statement touching
its progress the name of Robert r.
Church finds prominent place. Few,
II any, coiored men have been conceded
just such status as he has in connec-
tion with the great business interests
of a large city. This has grown out of
the fact that he has always responded
readily to all monetary demands for
public improvements and has been
willing to take the chances that other
men take in such matters. Hissuccess
in this direction has been due to q ju
dicious and sensible use OF his means.
No man in any part OF the country
has been a Drawer, more radical and
more ardent champion OF his race and
lts interests than Mr.. Church. He was
a leader IN every movement for the al
deviation of iss hard conditions az
time when it tried mems soul 10 be
courageous. He is known everywhere
as man or the strongest character
and absolutely fearless in the perform
ance Of duty. He is, inc eed, leader
of men.
Mr.. Church has travelled extensively
both IN this country and Europe in
company with his charming family.
He lives in an elegant mouse and Is
widely known for his generous hospi-
tallty. His home has been the rendez-
vous for all of the leading colOred men
in the country who have have from
time to time visited Memphis.
The 10Th Congressional district of
Tennessee will be well represented at
Philadelphia next June. MIR. Church,
himself, Is splendidly informed on all
great public questions. His colleague

next. The election OF sucn a man as
MIR. Church to distinguished place
in the council of his political party
marks an epoch In the history Of the
colored people of this country. 1t ia
rare compliment to Mr.. Church, and
itrefiects the intelligence and advanced
thought of his constituents. Mr.. Church
is not and has never been an Cff1ce
seeker. He lie business man pure and
simple and has never allowed the
thought Of personal politics to disturb
his equanimity or to interfere with his
established ideas of business career
He is q politician only in that broad
sense that the affairs of Stare should
concern all of its citizens Of oharac .er,
reputation and manhood. He has al
ways believed that the elective fran
ehise should be exercised to the end
that the best men should make ard
exercise the laws Of the state and the
municipality. Mr.. Church has never
sought political recognition Of any kind
for himself but has heretofore steadily
and firmly refused IL. He has however,
constantly spent his time and literally
given his means TO advance the politi'
cal ambitions of others In whose honesty
of purpose he believed. In this re-
spect he has been the ideal citizen.
The honor which MIR. Church has
inst received came to him unsolicited
and almost against his will. 1t was In
truth the case Of the office seeking the
man. It is hopeful sign for the col
ored people when sueh a man of their
number is put forward for political pre-
ferm ent-a man independent Of politi-
cal Office and party lesders for a liveli
hood. A thousand such TepI esenta
tive would mean political dignity and
political elevation for the Negro in
America. The respect which they would
command and the independence with
which they might act would be worth
more than one can estimate.
Mr. Church Is q man Of large means:
indeed, he is one of the wealthiest col
ored men in the country. His accU-
mutations were gained by indefatigable
industry and extraordinary business
ability. His purpose to make for him.
se,f q competency was so firm that he
has never allowed the glsmor of shad.

The lament of the Prophet,
who was King in Jerusalem, that
"Man goeth to his long home
and the mourners go about the
Streets" has found an echo
through all the rolling years in
the temples of Masonry, where
the Fatherhood Of God and. the
Brotherhood of man is the tie
that binds.
Whereas God in His infinite
wisdom has seen fit to call from
this world our late brother Mai.
L 0. Fonvielle.
Resolved, that in the death of
Brother Fonvielle the Masonic
order has lost a devoted and ex-
emplary member, the State a
patriotic son, the community an
upright citizen, the home a low.
ing father, the church a shining
light.
Resolved, that a page of the

lutious thereon, and that a copy
hereof be sent to the family of

Only a Baby.

BY Harriet Prescott Spofford.
Something to live for came to the place.
Something to die for, maybe.
Something to give even sorrow a a
And yet it was only a baby!
Cooling and laughter and gurg1es and
cries,
Dimples for tenderest kisses.
Chaos of hopes and Of raptures and
signs, :
Chaos of fears and of b1isses.
Las year, like all years, the rose and
the thorn:
This year a wilderness, maybe;
But heaven stopped under the roof on
the morn
That it brought there only a baby.

WE GO FORWARD.
One of The Best Evidences of
Progress is the Growing De-
mand and Rising Valne of

Progress is the Growing De-
mand and Rising Valne of
a Community's Real
Estate.
Time was when vacant lots in
Goldsboro ere plentiful and
could be purchased readily at
low fg1res, and when farming
lands round about the city were
hardly desirable at any!price.
It is not SO now,
la fact, it is the exception when
a piece of real estate goes on the
market in this city, and wnen it
does bidders are plentiful and
ANXIOUS and at prices that show
the spirit of progress that is
abroad in our midst; while farm
ing land within a radius of ten
miles of Goldsboro is hardly to
be had at any reasonable price.
This shows most conclusively
that not only is .Goldsboro and
the territory Of which it is the
trading centre on a substantial
basis of progress, but also that the
people themselves realiz5 this
fact. which makes the future. Of
our city and section all the more
certain in it's assured promise OF
progress and prosperity-fOr
this is the secret OF successes with
communities as we'll as individu~
ais, that they appreciate their
advantages and improve their
opportunities; an this is what
the people Of G3ldsooro and vi
entity are coming, a. length, to
reaIiZ7.
And one of the chief factors In
bringing ABOUT this nav order of
things hereabouts IS Mr.. Ed. l..
Edmundson, the "Real Estate
Hustler, who realizing early that
Goldsboro and Wayne county real
estate is "a good thing, has not
ceased to "push it along" Ga the
northeastern suburb, in he neigh
borhood of the Wayne Cotton
MIL and the new Borden Cotton
Mill, he has built quite a little
town in itself, kaown as edmund
son Town., and all through the
city be has censummated real es-
tate deals that have redcunded to
the improvement of the city and
lent impetus to our onward march.
His operations, however, in this
regard have not been confined to
Goldsboro. He has gone out into
the country and made numerous
deals in farm lands that have
brought new energy to agricol~
tural pursuits in this section: aud
this means more than can be COM
puted in dollars and cents for
Goldsboro; for successful agricul-
ture is the hope of the country,
when you come down to the final
analysis of what constitutes the
basis of a peoples hope and prog
ress.
But in all Mr.. Edmundson's
career in real estate his transac-
tions of yesterday marked it as
the "red letter. day in his record
as ''The Hustler, when he con-
summated the sale and transfer
of titles to six farms in Wayne
county, to as many different par
ties, running up in price, some of
them, as high as $500 cash.
These facts speak louder than
words and the people can draw
the lesson they teach for thems
selyes.

THE REAL LESSON.

The digging in the wreck to
find the real cause of Tuesdays
disaster is going on with vigor.
We shall hear how it happened
with a great many variations in
the next few days to come. 1t is
of no manner of Importance what
Republicans think about it. What
are Democrats saying2
We are in the midst of a com
plete'smash, AID it is only sensible
tor US to ask how it happened?
What caused it? Was it Republi-
can goodness or Democratic bad
ness? Was it free silver or was 1T
prosperity Was it Bryan2
Indeed, as we honestly seek for
causes in the general wreck we
cannot escape the conclusion that
the real cause Of Tuesdays great
defeat is tracaable 10 Mr.. Bryan
himself. It lies close to his in
sistence at Kansas City that free
silver at Is to 1 be incorporated
in the platform. It was not an
issue and it could not be made one.
The judgment Of the leaders was
opposed 10 the dangerous experts
ment of trying to revive it. 1t
was realiz I'd that conversative men
of both PARTIES who might sup
port Mr.. Bryan still had latent
fears of him on financial issues.
1t was argued that the country
was prosperous and that it was
useless to inject a question into
the camp ign that did not belong
there and which was sur to do
infinite hsrm.
Mr.. Bryan had his way. 16
to 1 was adopted and he was re-
nominated.
The lesson of his decisive de-
feat it seems easy to read. Mr..
Bryan has twice been a candidate
before the people and has twice
been defeated, the second time
much more sigpally and decisively
than the first. We feel confident
that Mr.. Bryan himself will re-
cognize that there is d meaning to
the verdict Of the people which
the Democratic party in turning
its face to the future should heed.
We believe that all elements of
the party, those now estranged
and those Loyalty supporting Mr..
Bryan, will work together in
utilizing the teachings of the past
two campaigns and in placing the
Democratic party where it be-
longs.
The are many predictions as to
the future of the great Demo-
cratic party, and a "re-organiza-
ton" of the same. This talk of
Reorganization" is idle talk.
Simply because the party was de-
feated in the election does not
show in the least that it is dis
organized. Some years ago, the
Republican party was as deep in
despair as IS the Democratic
party to-day, but there was nc
talk of reorganization" There
will, no doubt, be some change in
the platform of the party, just as
there have been changes in the
platform of all political parties,
but the fundamental principles Of
the Democratic party will live as
long as there lives in the hearts Of
men a love for truth, justice, ant
liberty.
