The past week has been busy
one for our farmers. Cook and Till
man started their machine last Mon
day and was busy most of the week.
AL. Croker started up on Wednesday
with his new machine, and it works
to perfection. There is considerable
more grain to be threshed yet. The
yield this year is as good as can
be expected considering the long dry
spell of weather we have expert
enced, in fact some oat fields have
yielded better than was expected.
We are all thankful for the showers
that have fallen the past few day,
and hope more will follow.

was to sit out in their yards and en-
ioy the music. Mr.. Sanborn has the
thanks of our citizens for the eve
nings entertainment and hope that he
will bring it along again.

said that Mr.. c. w. Anderson is not
at all pleased with the actions Of Mayor
Low, and that he is being urged to
go forward with his large influence
and endeavor to turn the tide, so at
the next election there will be tidal
wave of Negro votes toward the Tam
many oFganizatiOn--for condemn it as
the reformers may, it offers wider
door than was ever found under
Strong, Low or any of the so-called
champions of civic righteousness. This
is gwen space to show the temper of
the new Negro, North and South, and
those who are politically wise would
do we'll to take note of the sentiments
here expressed. The reelection of
President Roosevelt or that Of Gov
ernor Odel1 might, in certain contin-
gencies, hang upon the fair treatment
of the aggressive young 'Afro-Ameri-
cans, led by such forces as Charles
Anderson, George Wibecan and John
z. Bruce.

While the colored Republicans are
sending up their plants of nOn-recog-
milton, the Negro Tammanyites are
having family troubles of their own.
Edward e. Lee was all-poWerfuI under
the chieftainship of Richard Croker,
but after the return OF the Vantage
Squire to private life and the ascenden-
cy Of the triumVirate system Of gov
ernment, the dusky braves split into
factiOns-some say at the instigation
of the white assembly leaders who
felt that the Negroes were receiving
too much consideration as a separate
annex of the party, and that the small
fry whites could themselves secure
credit for the work of the Negroes if
the latter could be swallowed up in the
regular ward clubs. Anyhow, Mr..
John J. Bell, smarting under the
lash of the Lee discipline, got together
following. and at meeting held not
long ago, had himself declared the
official leader Of the Negro Democ-
racy of Greater New York Mr.. Lee
holds that he is the only Simon-Pure
head of the Organization-and there
you are. With the party out of pow
er, the question of who is is not a
weighty one, and by the time the
lOaves and fishes heave into sight.
there will doubtless be some getting
together"

The editorial in THE CoLoRED AMERI-
CAN of Washington, D. c., under the
caption of Appeals to Race Prejudices"
was copied in full by Editor Bryson in
the daily press in the issue Of the 18th

its logic and good sense. It was GER

The rumor that the Justice Party
and the anti-Pearre Republicans of
the Sixth Congressional district Of
Maryland have put up a colored
preacher named Rev. Henry Newman,
is said to be without foundation. The
opposition to Col. PearTe is said %
be the work of some Washing gton pol
iticians, headed by W. r. Vaughan,
who are trading upon the gulibility
of the Negroes for their own personal
gain. A writer in the Evening Star
says that PeaTre in the oh and Mudd

out" and the official methods Of Mayor
Low has been no exception to the rule.
There are signs of a revolt, and the
outspOken remonstrance last week of
Mr.. George T. Wibecan, president Of
the Garnett Republican Club of Brook
lyn, has made profound impression
among the rank and file, so much so
that several have written him letters
approving his course, and rendering as
surances OF their hearty support.
Here is a significant extract from Mr..
Wibecan's peppery talk before the
meeting Of the 10th Assembly District
Republican Association:
twenty-five thousand loyal patri-
otic and liberty-loving Negroes gave
their votes for the elevation of Mr..
Low" said Mr.. Wibecan, yet when
these people seek political preferment
at the hands of the mayor, they are
denied, snubbed and entirely ignored.
Let US tell the party that we want and
and demand consideration. We want
a place on the next ticket named by
the Republican party. We not only
want it. but l serve notice on the party
now that we must have it. If we don't
have it, then the party won't have US
Mr.. Wibecan strongly cOntrased the

administration with the present man

Down in West Virginia, Senator
Scott is going to have a fight on his

In other States the same program is
Tentatively agreed upon ana it is openly
argued by leading Republicans that II
the Negro is eliminated from politics,
the whites will divide upon economic
issues, and a square fight between
white voters will insure honest cleo

wellfned plot to freeze the Negroes
out of the national convention, where

and having them seated, as the regular
