TusRegee in Africa.

IuSKegee IN Africa.
The Booker Washington school is
bearing splendid fruits just now in the
way Of furnishing expert cotton rails
erS for the German government to
operate in Africa, where there is a
large German colony established
which is using the natives as field la
borers. For the past year some eight of
Tuskegee's best graduates have been
in that country in such a capacity,
and their success there has been al
most phenomenal. Recently five 9TH
ers from the school passed through
New York en- route to Africa and more
are wanted. These men go as experts
and their wages are paid by the Ger
man government, which is higher pay
three times over than any wages they
could get in this country To the man
or woman, whether he be white, black,
griZzled or gray, who will perfect him
self in some kind of profession there
is always room for him at the top.
When you will have learned to do
something better than anyone else
can do it there will always be plenty
OF demands and calls for your SER
vices. The Negro, who went to Tus-
kegee and became thoroughly con-
versant with cotton raising on high
industrial order, not knowing that
there was field beyond his own com
munity in which he could operate, us
now in the employ of the government
of Germany at almost fabulous prices,
and yet there is need for more. Such
must be proof sufficient to the others
in the South that it is their duty to
do their very best at whatever they
undertake and become proficient in at
least one thing if they hope for future
success.

Yes, said Dr. Samuel Burdett,
president of the International Council
of the World, whose Offices are in the
New York block, our association has
just completed it's arrangements to
float its bonds on it's land proposition,
which has for its object the irrigation
and cultivation of a large tract of land.
The production of the sugar beet will
be one of the chief articles of cultiva-
ton on our lands The company will
not leave a stone unturned to settle
as many colored families on those
lands as possible believe Eastern
Washington offers better and more
inducements for the Industrious and
thrifty Negro than any other section
of this cOuntry, and it is our object to
assist them in taking advantage of
those opportunities and inducements.
You can say our association, which
is duly incorporated under the state
laws, is now open and ready for bust

ton, but it does not always do it, be-
cause no race of people on the earth,
according to their numbers, has great
er wealth than the Jewish race, and
yet they sometimes meet with as much
opposition as does the Negro. Many
of the leading hotels in New York and
watering places along the Atlantic
coast absolutely refuse to entertain
Jews and they often turn away Jews
worth their millions, showing very
conclusively that wealth is not al
ways protection to a weaker race
against insults from stronger race.
Wealth, however, freely mingled with
education, refinement and good citi-
zenship will do a great deal toward
protecting any weaker race of people
