|TAfter full consideration ant
consultation with the officials Of
the National Negro Business
League and friends throughout
the country, it has been decided
to call the next session of the
League to meet at Chicago, Ills,
Wednesday, Thursday and Fri
day, August Fl, p and %.
1t is generally conceded that
the meeting held in Boston last
August was one of the most sue
cessful gatherings ever held in
the history of the race, and that
it gave an encouragement and
impetus to the race in all lines of
business in way that is now APP
parent in all parts of the country.
Any person engaged in any
commercial enterprise or properly
delegated to represent any indi-
vidual or individuals engaged in
commercial enterprise, is entitled
to membership under such regu-
lations as may be adopted. Wom-
en- as we'll as men engaged in
business should be represented.
It is strongly urged that Local
Leagues be established in every
part of the country where no
such leagues now exist and those
already organized be strength
ened wherever necessary, and
that these local leagues send del
egates, so far as possible to the
National organization, and keep
in close touch during the year
with the officers of the National
organizati ton; that these local or
ganizntions hold meetings month
ly as far as practical; that every
thing possible be done in these
local organizations to discourage
complicated and useless parlia-
mentiary machinery, and that
parliamentary and technical dis
cussions be avoided, as far as pos
sible, with a view to concentra-
ting time and strength on the
real objects of the organization.
It is the desire Of the officers of
our people as we'll as of the per-
persons engaged in business.
These photographs should show
both outside and inside views as
far as possible, and they should
be forwarded to the President Of
the League at Tuskegee, Ala
bama, as early as convenient.
The time has come for the race
to take long step forward in
establishing itself permanently
and more generally in the bust
ness of the community where it
resides.
Let no Legislation or attempted
legislation discourage or dis
hearten us. There should be no
doubling or hating. Every move
should be a forward one. To
gain recognition and success we
may have to struggle harder and
longer than others, but out of the
very struggle we shall gain a
strength that we can get in no
other way. The influence and
power Of intelligence, high char
acter and high standing in the
business world, are sure to place
the race IN the end in position
| where it will be honored and
treated with justice in every part
of the land. Let our watchword
constantly be, FORWARD

There are few states in the Union
in whicn religious work is carried
on by the churches with more steady
zeal and constant, unfiagging in
terest than il is in Indiana, and the
state takes a high place in religious
statistics.
The fact that whereas in 1900
there we're in the whole United States
only lS3 ministers Of the then undl
vided Presbyterian church, and that
to-day there are in the state OF lndi-
ana alone 262 ministers OF the one
branch OF that church which has no
addition to the title Presbyterian
(known otherwise as the Presby-
terian church Norlh) is significant,
not only Of the wonderful growth
and development of religious effort
in the United States during the past
century, but of that growth and de.
velopment in our state as well. II
ANYTHING more be needed to make
this fact impressive, it may be found
in the statement that there are to-
day nearly twice as many Presby-
terians (and all the one branch
mentioned above) in the state OF In
diana alone as there were 10 the
then undivided church in all the
states Of the Union.
SECOND IN THE COUNTRY.
There is only one Presbyterian
church in the United States the
members Of which contributed more
money last year to church work
than the Second Presbyterian church
in indianapolis. The famous Brick
church of New York City gave last
year $4,000. Tie Second Pres
byterian OF this city gave $S4, ,932,
of which amount $45,64S went to
home missions and $39, 2S4 to for
eign missions. This is probably
the largest amount the Second
church has ever raised in any one
year, but it has, nevertheless, . re-
marxably coed record in this re-
spect. II gave $4,000 in 1895,
and $54, 900 in 1899, and its yearly
average will doubtless come nearer
the latter than the former figures.
The Fifth Avenue church Of New
York City, where Rev. DIR. John
Hall labored 30 many years, gave
last year $Sl, 900, while the famous
DR.. Parkhurst's church, the Mad.
ison Square, iell $25, 900 behind the
Second Presbyterian cf Indianap-
oils.
The next largest giver among the
Presby terisn churches in Indiana
last year was the Vincennes Pres

spite Of all his wealth and power, it
is doubtful if Armour was as happy

WHAT THE METHoDIsTs DID.
There are 1 los Methodist Epis
copal churches in Indiana valued a,
81 ,697, $50, adding together every
thing in the three conferences, viz /.
The Indiana, the North and the
Northwest Indiana, and the contri-
buttons of all these churches to the
general work in all its branches last
year foot up $685. $50. The Meth
odists differ from other denomina-
tions in that they have no one church
which is conspicuous by reason oi
its very large contribution; the large
sum the Methodists used in the
work came from the aggregation Of
moderate sums from the numerous
small congregations. There is not
a Methodist church in all Indiana
which raised so much as $40, 900
last year. The value Of the Meth
odist church parsonages is not in.
cluded IN the above figures.

cessible by which the offerings Of
individual churches may be ascer-
tanned.
The Congregationalists are com.
