The negro Baptist State convention
which met here yesterday brings to
the city representative men and wo-
men of that race from all parts OF the
state who have met for the purpose
of taking under consideration the NOR
al and intellectual development OF the
negroes of the state and in some way
do something to better their condl-
tion in this country. These men and
women from the churches of the state
raising money for the educational
work and taking steps to forward the
state missionary work.
The convention was called to order
by Dr. E. c. Morris, who delivered
mastery address yesterday afternoon.
He said in part:
Il remember hearing distinguished
member of the race say that he thank
ed God for American prejudice. At
first did not agree with the state
ment. but when | considered that it
is that very prejudice which gives
employment to every negro preacher,
every negro teacher, doctor, lawyer,
that built all the negro churches and
schools started every negro store,
hotel and restaurant, every bank, ev-
cry insurance company and i'll fact,
every enterprise owned and operated
by the race--When | considered thus
| saw the wisdom of the remark. And
let me say just here that it will be
that prejudice or prescription which
will build more stores. banks and in
suranCe companies. 1t will cause the
race to build railroads, steamboats,
and steamships. 1t will continue un-
til the negro's commercial holdings
shall become so interviewer with those
of other men and other peoples OF
the world, that their interests will be
Identical When that time comes the
politics of the country will have an
equal bearing upon all. If were call
ed upon to advise you upon this line.
| would say give less attention to
politics and more attention to busi-
ness and the requirements of homes
and other property. Let every man
among us strive to get home, i'm
prove it and then add to that good
bank account. Go into the unbroken

Deadly Effect of Fear.

Fear causes more disease than do
microbes, more deaths than famine.
more failures than panics: it costs
more than war, is always failure.
and is never necessary. Fear weak.
enes the hearts action, induces con-
gestion, invites indigestion, produces
poison through decomposing foods.

The attempt to array the Indian
element against the mon citizen"
element that is now being at
tempted, is even more reprehen-
sible than dividing on national
party lines. The dag has past
when such foolishness will be toll
Grated in Vinita. We have put
of our swaddling clothes and have
started on the way to build a city.
Every citizen in Vinite must
stand upon the same footing. and
the man who tries to stir up race
prejudice will be asked to go way
back and sit down.

PRlnARY FELL FLAT.

After a day OF toll and sweat the
socalled democratic primary yes.
terday rallied up the number OF
1872 votes. which included a few
stray republicans aud several nom
residents.
There are upwards of 800 demo.
cratic voters in Vinita. so a very
fair estimate can now be had of
the strength of what may proper
ly be designated as the rump de
mocracy OF Vinlta. The anti Led
better strength was fairly testeo
by yesterdays primary. though
many even who voted yesterday
could not fnd courage TO vote
against the marshal aud will on.
the day Of election vote for him.
The effort to force party lines in
Vinita was a signal failure, as the
prevailing sentiment in both par
ties was against such a move. A
few politicians who want to keep
in line with the party for the pur
pose of running for Office in the
future succumbed to TIE party lash
and stepped into line.
The first battle in the struggle for
law and order in Vinita has been
fought and won. and the town will
not be wide open town-uot this
year.
The situation is simphfed and
the political air somewhat clan
fed, and the non. political citizens
movement is master of the situa
ton. The fellows who have been
so vehemsnily denouncing Led
better look silly today; they are
like unto the Queen Of Sheeba, the
"spiiit" is all out Of them.

Out of a. least three hundred
democrats in Vinita, 1872 voted in
yesterdays primary. Last years
duplici,y spoiled the primary bus
lnees in Vinita for some time to
come. The town is about to score
a considerable victory by wiping
out political lines in her muicipal
elections. The town is alright.
