NASHVILLE, Tenn, Sept. 26.-The
American will say tomorrow: Senator +.
w. Carmack, in an interview here to-day,
said when asked about the publication that
he would make effort to secure the re-
peal OF the fifteenth amendment:

that had not thought of doing so, but adj

debate. That was all. l confess that L
have a great curiosity to hear the fifteenth
amendment defended by the Republican
leaders who now take the position that the
general principles of the Declaration of In
dependence are applicable only to white
and not to colored men and who hold that
the brown man in the Philippines has no
right that the white man is bound to re-
Spect.
''At the same time know that any prog
ress toward the repeal of the fifteenth
amendment depends on it not being made Il
partisan or sectional question. To make it
such would be to check at once healthy
growth of public sentiment. 1t may well
be that any direct effort on the part of a
Southern man for its repeal would result
in making this a sectional or party queS-
ton. This must be avoided.

Views of Negro Leaders on the Race
Question.

WASHINGTON, Sept. 26.-The views of
conservative negro leaders in this city on
the race question have been formulated
at a conference between Rev. Dr. Dean
Richmond Babbitt, of the Church of the
Epiphany, Brooklyn, N. Y, and the fol-
lowing prominent colored citizens: Rev.
Francis ]. Grimke, pastor of the Fifteenth
street Baptist Church; Prof. Kelly Miller,
of Howard University; Judson w. Lyons,
register of the United States treasury;
Cyrus Field Adams, assistant register of
the treasury; John c. Dancy, recorder of
deeds of the District of Columbia; DR.. r.
NJ. Atwood, Thos. r. Clarke and Whitefield
Mckinley.
DR.. Rabbit has devoted much time to
the study of this question and was chosen
at the recent Chautauqua meeting to reply
to the argument of John Temple Groves
The composite views expressed in signed
opinions of these eight colored leaders and
submitted to DR.. Babbitt follow:
THE spreading race prejudice is occa-
sioneu Dy appeal TO race passion by poll
ticians. The cure for the prejudice is the
application of Christian morals and reli-
gion and just execution of the laws The
fourteenth and fifteenth amendments to the
Constitution should be held intact. 1t is
noI the uesIe, WISH or purpose or the
negroes, as race, to seek, maintain, en-
phasize or teach social equality with the
whites as consequence of the equar poll
teal rights and they urge strongly that the
negroes education should not be limited
TO Industrial training. They believe that
the number OF crimes charged to the race
has been grossly exaggerated by their
enemies; that the real facts should be COL
lected and published and that the clergy
of their race should teach strongly against
these crimes and against intemperance.
They urge thorough organization of their
race under capable and respectable leaders
moral and religious sentiment of the coun-
try and especially to the white clergy.
They oppose the idea OF a separate politi-
cal party"

lean citizens have suffered i'll treatment on
the Island Of st. Andrews. forty miles from

have failed to afford them protection or re-

his suggestion the Nashville has been or
dsred from Pensacola to St Andrews. The
Americans involved are connected with q

serious trouble but the evident inability of
the local authorities, or their unwilling

OF an American warship desirable.

silk have also stimulated Its produc-
ton in the countries adapted thereto,
so that the tariff against which foreign
manufacturers and home free traders

IMPLEMENT MEN AND RECIPROCITY.

OF all our manufacturing interests
none has pushed farther in the worlds
markets within the past few years than
the manufacturers OF agricultural inn
plements. Their articles are in IN
creased demand in almost every coun-
try OF the globe and their intention to
press the campaign is evidenced by
the request OF the National Association
of Agricultural implement and Vehicle
Manufacturers. which IS soon TO meet
in Cleveland, that the association
be supplied with reports collected from
American consuls all ovec the world re-
garding sales and opportunities for
sales of agricultural implements.
Government statistical reports show
that in 1898 our exports of this class OF
goods amounted to only si,5oo,ooo-an
increase of only 100000 in ten years;
hut in 1908 these exports had increased
to 21.o0oooo. and the annual increase
Is now about 100000 a year. Such
trade is well calculated 10 make those
who enjoy 1t bit nervous over the 1u-
ture, with all the world closing With US
IN tariff battle array. In 1908 reapers
and mowers were sent to over fifty DIFF
ferant countries. while piows and culti-
yators were sent TO even more coun-
tries.
OF the s100.oo0,ooo worth of agricul-
tural implements made in America
s20417,oa7 were exported. Great Britain
took sl,422632, France nearly three
millions, Germany about one and one
half millions and the rest of Europe
more than 100000. Argentina
bought nearly 100000, Australia and
Africa more than q million each and
British North America 100000 in
round numbers. AS the total value OF
farm implements annually manufac-
&ured in the United States is only
little more than s100. 100000, it appears
that one fifth of the entire product is
now taken abroad. 1t IS safe to say
that on the continuation OF this pro-
portion depends in a large measure the
success OF the implement manufactur-
ers. The growth OF expectations to
British North America. l. e., Canada
and Newfoundland. is very significant.
From a value OF $4,000 In 1898 the
Canadian demand has grown to more
than 100000, and is now larger than
that OF any other country.
The implement manufacturers favor
reciprocity treaties. Their conventions
have resolved in favor OF reciprocity
time and again. The big convention II

siastically ON record to the same effect

FURNISHED HOUSES FOR PREACHERS

rate, he must move. He must pay
freight and carriage and suffer breakage

his salary, too often in arrears, he must

All this has brought up the sugges-

homes for preachers. There are a few
congregations which have furnished
