the meeting, and indicated a clear
comprehension of the condition and

the document from beginning to end.
The majority of the delegates visited
Tuskegee on the 18th, and were
handsomely entertained by Professor
Washington and his staff. The gen
eral feeling is that the Congress has
accomplished substantial good for the
race, and came up to all that was ex-
pected by the most sanguine. I'm
stinted praise is due Professor I. Gar
land Penn, for conceiving the idea Of
holding such a conference, and to Rev.
J. w. E. Bowen and his aids for the
yeOman service il developing the
plans outlined by the originator.
Before adjourning sine die the Con
gress perfected a national association

attired well-behaved and bore them
selves, without exception, in a man
ner that suggested intellectual attain
ments of a high order, social culture
and a love for law and order. The
impression created upon the locality
was pleasing, and it was a rare treat
for many to listen to addresses from
Negro scholars that would have done
credit to the best brains of any nation
or race under the sun. The great Ag-
ricultuTal Hall, the Peoples Taberna-
Gle Big Bethel Church and in fact
all of the large auditOriums of the city
were brought into requisition to ac-
cOmmOdate the vast gathering, and the
many sessions for religious and ed

Mr.. LYONS IN NEW YORK.
Ihe Eloquent Register Of Ole
treasury Delivers a Telling
Speech on Negro Achievements
and Presents VaIuab bic Statis
tics.

Thursday, August 7th, was a red
letter day for the colored people of
Ithaca, N. Y. 1t was freedoms natal
day, and the emancipation anniver-
aary was celebrated in a fashion more
elaborate than has been the case for
many years. Fully two thousand peo-
pie were in attendance, coming from
numerous points in western New York.
The speaker of the day was Hon. Jud-
son w. Lyons, Register of the Treas
ury. He was feelingly introduced by
Mayor Gunderman, who referred to
the occasion as one of great import
ance to the colOred people, and ap-
plauded the enthusiasm with which
the race celebrated the day of their
deliVerance from bondage He
thought the anniversaries of Independ-
ence Day and Emancipation Day were
the two most sacred and significant
days in the political life of the repub-
lie. The mayor complimented the
cOlored people upon developing such
a sturdy eXemplar of American man
hood as Mr.. Lyons, and thought the
race. should take on courage anew in
contemplating the dispensatiOn of
Providence that made the autograph
of a citizen of African descent neces-
sary to the Iegalization of every piece
of paper money used in the great
monetary and commercial transactions
of the nation.
Mr.. Lyons address was pronounced
to be the clearest exposition of the
history, progress and achievements of
the Negro race ever heard in that sec
tion of the Empire State. 1t abound

ed in valuable statistics, many OF Whlch
were taken down by students and bus
mess men for future reference, as they
were difficult to obtain otherwise The
Register held the undivided attention
of the audience throughout, and at
the close was given an ovation when
lasted for some time. He spoke or
the colored man as a soldier, as a cit
izen, his social position, and the as
sistance he has brought to the lndus-
trial world. He took no stock IN the
idea that there was any conflict be-
tween the two schools of education
that is talked about in some quarters.
The coIored man, said he, must get all
the Industrial training that science
can bestow. but it will be a sad day for
him and every ether American citizen
when he is content to become simply
an industrial factor in OHr body pollt-
ic He Dointed out that in the produc-
tions of agriculture and manufactur-
inc. the cOlored mans share amount
ed TO s61O.7S6182, or SCI per capita
to every individual of the Negro race.
In proDertv holding, the Negro is ac-
credited with the grand total OF
$500 OOO. 900. or $50 per capita to ev-
arv man. woman and child Of the race
for tbe first generation Of freedom
ali this. too without strikes, riot, or
any other labor disturbance. The
results showed the splendid part the
Negro is playing in the development
ofsthe nation.

TIE MERGER AT GREENSBORO.
1t is Understood That High Point and Winston
Interests Are Involved.

Especial to the News and Observer)
Greensboro, N. c., June 4.-The cleo
trio light, power. transportation and
gas properties merger, formed here yes
terday, is all the talk today.
There are many rumors of the deal
affecting the gas properties of Winston
Salem in that the same parties who
owned them, or controlled them. are
those who sold out to the new con-
solidated company here yesterday. 1t is
further stated by good authority, that
the High Point electric railroad fran
chise is mixed up in the deal, and the
probabilities are that in short time
there will be an immense concentration
or consolidation of all these properties,
and that the much discussed line of cleo
trio railway between all these points will
soon be a reality.
Over half million dollars were in
volved in the deal yesterday, and if the
merger is extended to the properties men
toned above, it means the community of
one million dollars invested enterprise,
and the additional sum of million to
carry out the projected extensions of the
railway system.

THE SCHOOL REPORTS
Accurate Census of Children
Asked for This Year
SUPP. Joyner Also Calls for Correct R. port of
Numb.r Between II and q That Can
not Read and Write.

The blanks for the annual reports are
being sent out now to the various county
superintendents by Superintendent of In
struction Joyner. A feature of the re-
ports this year will be the latest and
most accurate census of children. All SUI
perintendents are requested to use the
school census taken last August, and
not to copy the census from old reports.
They are also asked to see that the cities
have a correct census, as in several it
has not been taken in several years. A
correct report is also called for of the
number of persons between the ages of
IL and q that can not read and write,
white and Colored.
Superintendent Joyner also sent ou the
following letter to the treasurers of Coun-
ty Boards of Education:
II must insist that county treasurers
be more careful in making their reports
than some have been in the past. l call
your special attention to the following
important points
THE poll and property tax should be
separated as the blank indicates. In some
instances the treasurers report that the
sheriffs have failed to keep the amounts
collected for polls and property separa-
ted. 1t is the duty of the sheriffs to
keep the amounts separate, and failure
to do so may necessitate the county board
having the penalty enforced against them.
Under the head Paid for Other Pur-
poses, giving every item you must not
include anything that should come I'M
der any other head. All the money paid
county superintendent for any official
work should come under the head Paid
County superintendent
eff he is paid a Fer diem, you should
state how many days he has been on
duty. If paid commission, state what
per cent. and on what amount.
''The compensation of treasurers can
not exceed two per cent on what they pay
out. They are not entitled to any COM
mission Oh receipts or on their own COM
missions. 1t is important that you make
your reports promptly, so they can be
tabulated and prepared for printing"
