ticed had not some person who knew
his features pronounced his name in
a whisper, and this was enough to
make those in hearing distance stand
in awe. He stands among other mill
lionaires like tall pine in stretch
of hazel BRUSH and his power is
more kingly. His every movement
is watched by other fnanciers with
an anxiety that borders on agony.
He can make or break men with one
word, and yet with all his strength
he is not arrogant or pompous. In
the recent coal strike he doomed
portentously, and it is said that it
was his hint to the coal operators
that finally ended the strike, yet if
he is able to control such men and
even greater and more powerful he
gives no outward sign, but goes his
way quietly and unobtrusively.

Without any purpose of interfering

counts proper to make a suggestion. 1t
is this. When Road Supervisors are APP

duties involved should receive the ap-
pointment No man, whatever his
,sAlity or worth Of service i'll other
aaveotions. should be made Road So
pervisor if he has neither experience
nor aptness in road making Fit men
we believe CAN be found in the party
in any of the several districts, if it is
desirable TO appoint party men. But
it will be more 10 the credit of the
Republican party, as well as to the
advantage of the public, if such men
cannot be had from the ranks of the
party to 60 outside III making the ap-
pointments No little complaint has
been made in times past. and justly so,
bee ause of the bad condition of our
county roads generally. The money of
the county hes been used, and yet the
roads are i'm but little better condition
than in years past. There is neces-
sity for better roads ANY improve

who are appointed as Supervisors. Let
the high ANA Of the County Court be,
the greatest GOOD to the greatest num-
Der. If this shall appear IN the ac-
tion OF the present Court in it's last
meeting, there viii be no call for any
changes by tine new Court when it
takes charge ofs county affairs with

President Roosevelt's annual mes
sage sent to Congress and read on
Tuesday, the second day of the session
is an exceptionally able state docu-
ment. 1t is characteristic of the man,
open frank. and manly in the trnest
sense. In this respect even the DEM
ocratic press finds much to praise.
The Republican press representing all
sections Of the country almost with
out exception gives it hearty endorse
ment.
The Message gives no indication of
a disposition to shlrk responsibility or
duty, in dealing with the great inter
ests of the country. 1t discusses mat

are interested in the countrys well

uppermost in the public mind, the

legislating. looking to the control and
destruction of the evil. care must be
exercised that the good is not destroy

Moderation and Reason

The President reasserts his policy
for the regulation of trusts but his dis,
cussion is distinguished by moderation
reason and Judgment. He has seen and
recognized from the first the tenden-
cies and necessities of modern eeono-
mic forces, and h|4percieves that the
essential condition. of industrial de-
velopment neither can be nor ought to
be changed or thwarted, But he be-
lieves that there are evils. inner emit in
unregulated operation, and he propo-
ses only such supervision as will bring
them within legitimate control. He
holds that the restrictive and regulat
ing power of Congress is not exhaust
ed by existing legislation, and he
would extend legislation TO meet the
further requirements which expert
ence has made plain. His whole treat
ment of the subject is calm, dispas-
sionate and marked by admirable equi-
polse and fairness. --Philapelphia Press

commEsT OF THE PRESS
To Control The Trusts.

President Roostyelt's message deals
with the tariff and the trusts, capital
and labor, in manner too simple to
please 'shigh falutin' critics; too Tor
chile to suit the advocates OF the
trusts. But it viii powerfully appeal
to the plain people, who keenly appre-
cha to the fact that a sheer is not an
argument, and who, IN the memora-
BILE words in Democratic convention
is years ago, will love him for the
enemies he has made "
There is nothing in this program to

NEGROES AS BUsINE3s MEN.

Barbering as a pro eession is what { you make it. Years ago to be a barber you had to serve three years Gppren- ticeship. but nowadays in three months you will find an apprentice the pro- prietOr of a shop and trying to run his : former boss out of business. To be successful it is nC essary to get a prac-
 tical knowledge C the business, theory will not work W, I in the barber busi- ness. It is also necessary that a bar Der keep sober; tie main trouble I find with some or o.. best barbers. they seem to think thaL tL5y cant work well unless they have our or five drinks. In my opinion rum &.I razOrs don't work well together, some body is apt to get cut, and it is ally the customer Any barber who Jrks for me and gets drunk during mess hours gets dis missed at once ven if it is on Satur- day, when in a Lsh.
 In Connecticut we have state law that all barbers have to serve three years and then before they can work as journeyman barber they are co.E- pelled to go to the state capitol and be examined by the state board of exam iners of barbeTs. So l advise all Of these three months barbers to stay out of Connecticut. IL will cost you $5 to
 be examined, and for barbers who at
 tempt to work without a license, the
 penalty is $50 fine.
 Mir. President, l can't think of any
 thing else that will be of any interest
 to the convention concerning by Dusi- ness, but l want 10 say a few words
 before l stop, about some other peo-
 ple's business. This National Negro Business league in my opinion has
 caused a number of people in Hartford to enter into business. Two years ago when l returned from a Boston meet ing, our league held a public meeting in the Pearl street A. NJ. F. Zion church. and related the interesting things that were said about the ne groes. The delegate told the people about the rapid progress of the negroes in business and many were surprised to learn there were colored mayors coal mine owners, bankers and many other industries represented. Since 19C0 we have a new grocery store owned by Paul Morris; his profits last year were over $500. Two investment companies are composed of young men who buy houses and rent them to col cred people. Two new club houses anG several barber shops.
 MT. k. NJ. Richie started a coal busi- ness last year and is now doing a good business; sometimes he has more or ders than he can fill. The delegate spoke so much about the colored drug stores that one of our three licensed colorod druggists decided to start store for himself. His name is F. C. Lane. May l. 1902 he opened a neat little store in Saybrook, Conn.,, a town where there is but one or two colorei families and only one other drug store MT. Lane wrote me few days ago that he is doing double the business that he expected and the people d. not think of his color, nor does he until he looks in the glass. The population of Hartford is 79,S50. Of this number 1887
