be fraught with much that is interest
ing. instructive and beneficial.
On Tuesday, July Sth, Republican
state convention will be held in Ma
sonic Hall, 317 and 319 Wabasha

a large number of the politicians OF
the state.
From July 9th to 18th the fifth an

a reception will be given by the cltl-
zens of the Twin Cities in honor OF the
delegates to the various gatherings at
the Armory Hall of the State Univer-

far. the most superb one we have
given in a decade and is looked for
ward to with pleasurable anticipa-
tons.
The arrangements for the coming OF

THE NATIONAL AFRO-AMERICAN

| The Afro-American Council was
called into being by the necessities Of
the people, and it's mission is to amel-
iorate in so far as it can intelligently,
wisely and practically do so, the de-
: plorable political and industrial posi-
ton CT a large portion of our brethren
| in the South especially, who are living
in shadow Of condition which they
did not create and from which they
would gladly emerge if encouraged by
the Afro-Americans OF the North, who
enjoy larger civil and political rights
than their brethren of the South.
1t is the aim and hope of the Afro
American Council, which is neither
circum scribed by religious, social or
political tests as a condition to the
membership therein, to incorporate all
existing Social religious, political and
benevolent organizations into the body
CT its membership without Interior
! ence with the constitutions, rules or
/! bylaws OF said organizations, except
in SO far as they may be willing to be
guided in their future course by the
great axiom, "To labor for man be-
cause he is man, is mans noblest
work." In these noble words are COM
pretended the purpose, aim and OBJ
ject Of the Afro-American Council.
The uplift and development of the
ro-American people is it's central
thought and it's cherished hope To
; do this it must have the cordial and
! cheerful support and encouragement
of every manly Afro-American who
! has faith in the power and efficacy of

one or the other. 1t is fight to the
finish. and present odds favor Com
pers, The trouble which so suddenly
came to a poin: in the convention OF

yesterday moring is an echo OF the
great strike against the Unitel
States Steel company, which was
fought and lost last year by the
Amalgamated association under the

sociation had been defeated President
Shaffer did not hesitate ID utter
charges CT a serious nature against
7 President Gompers, as well as against
John Mitchell. president Of the United
! Mine Workers. AMI Frank Sargent. OF

men. He asserted that the organiZa-
| i5r over which these men presided
| had. while listening 10 the advice q
their leaders. refused to lend help
! ing hand TO the Amalgamated asso,
ciation. and had even fought against
it in the dark.
The charges were leveled against
,Ir. Gompers in particular. and Sc
cret circular was issued by President
/ Shaffer
This circular came to the notice g
+! President Gompers last fall, and he
made a reply denying that he had
acted in Ead faith toward the Anal

OUT the necessity Of afixing postage

De Forest Donglas. the inventor

De Forest Douglas. the inventor
and original manufacturer of artifi-
eial wooden legs, died recently at
his home in Springfield, Mass. His
invention was the result Of chance
thought after seeing man hobbling
about on wooden peg He con
eeiyed the i9ea of making artificial
limbs and even copied the joints of
the foot. His patent was taken out
Just before the Civil War and short
ly after he had more work than he
could attend to. He furnished arti-
fetal limbs to many members of
royalty and made considerable
money out of his invention.

Because of the many reports and
