Address Of the National Afro -Ameri.
y can Press Association.

To the People Of the United States.
At the twenty-fourth annual meeting
of the National Afro-American Press
Association held at Fifth Avenue Bap-
tist Church, Louisville, Ky, Monday,
June 29, 1908, the following address
was adopted:
The National Afro-American Press
Association at it's twenty fourth an
nual meeting in Louisville, KY, feel
that in the present crisis in the history
of the Afro-American people, when a
systematic and thoroughly organized
movement, begun in 1868, is working
with malicious and malignant energy
to utterly destroy the civil and politi-
cal rights of those for whom we stand
in some part as spOkesmen, it is neces-
sary to re-afirm and emphasize the
following principles fundamental in
citizenship and generally championed
by all Afro-American newspapers, and
to request the masses of the people to
live up, as far as they can, to the letter
and spirit of these principles.
We resent the reiterated state
ment that this is white mans cOun.
try" It was made in it's inception and
development by all of its people, ire
spective of race, and the Federal Con-
stitution specifically places all of its
citizens on equality before the law.
With our heterogeneous population of
all of the races on the. globe, if dis
tinction and abuse of race on account
Of race should ever become fixed pol
icy of the Government, the disruption
of the Government would be inevitable.
God has created no one race to lord
over any other race, for. 'of one blood
made He all mankind"
The persistent effort which has been
made and is being made to nullify the
suffrage guarantees of the Fourteenth
and Fifteenth amendments to the Fed
eral Constitution is fraught with as
much danger to the peace and security
of the Federal Union as was the effort
to hitch slavery upon the Constitution

of the country prior to 1860. This ef-

of the country prior to 1860. This ef-
fort has caused constant irritation of
the public mind and temper since 1868,
and there promises in the near future
to be crisis in which the wrongs and
inequalities which have grown up un'
der the legislation of several of the
States will have to be definitely set
tied. We claim nothing more than what
is guaranteed to all citizens by the
Federal Constitution and made manda-
tory upon the States, and we will be
satisfied with no less. President Lin
coin declared that this country can
not exist half slave and half Free" and
we declare that this country cannot
exist in peace, security and prosperity
where one-seventh of the total popu-
lation has it's civil and political
rights abridged or denied, to the de-
basement of manhood and womanhood
by the late slaveho1ding States. Denial
of these rights have worked irresisti'
bly, for the denial or abridgement of all
the related rights of citizenship, be.
cause a voteless man of a truth, has
no right which any man is bound to re
spect. : . r.
We believe firmly IN the healing Vlr-
tues Of sound religion and sound edu
cation; and by. education we mean a
thorough training in all useful learn
ing of the head, heart and hand. The
idea that Southern Caucasians pay the
taxes necessary to educate the South
ern Afro-American is an economic
absrrdity which would only be ad
! vanced as an argument by persons
who seek to befog the public intelli
gence. Each man standing in his place
in every community pays as mucl
taxes as any other man. This is al
economic truism which no reputable
master of social conditions, from Adam
Smith to the present, has disputed.
We again direct attention to the ef
i feet produced by the license of th.
mob spirit We do this not because W.
are the victims in most part OF thi:
license, but because it has become 3
national problem with which the ma
tion in its public opinion and its laws
/ must deal or ultimately go down te
ruin in the mad overflow Of anarchistie

Hydrophobia literally signifies dread of water" Rabies is more proper or appropriate term for symptoms arising from the bite of rabfd animals Hydro- phobia is the term applied to one of tho symptoms of rabies rather than to the disease itself.
 According to a medical dictionary hy- drophobia is symptom which appears occasionally in other nervous affections. Rabies is susceptible of spontaneous de- velopment in the dog, wolf. cat and fox which can thence transfer 1t to other animals or to man. Many facts induce the belief that the saliva and bronchial mucous are the sole vehicles of the rabid virus the effects of which sometimes ap- pear almost immediately after the bite and at other times are apparently dor mant for considerable period.
 The chief symptom of hydrophobia, or rabies. are a sense of dryness and con- striction of the throat. excessive thirst, difficult deglutition, aversion for and hor- TOT at the sight of liquids as we'll as of brilliant objects. a red animated counte- nance, great nervous irritability, frothy saliva and grinding of the teeth. Death most commonly happens before the fifth day. Hydrophobia has hitherto resisted all therapeutical means.
 In the way of prevention the bitten part should always be exercised where practi- cable, and cauterized.

MAD DOGS VERY FEW
POLICEMEN SAY THERE IS NO
 CAUSE FOR ALARM.
Muzzling of Montgomery Canines
 Will Not Begin Under City Ordinance Until June-Some- ] thing About Hydrophobia.

Some alarm has been expressed by Montgomerians at the reported number of mad dogs which have been seen on the streets recently. Police officers declare, however, that this alarm is without foun- dalton as the number of dogs in Mont gomery affected with rabies is very few DO far as they have observed.
 The city ordinance requiring that dogs must be muzzled is not in force except Curing June. July, August and Septem- Der, and patrplmen are unable to do any thing with the worthless dogs that roam khe streets.
 The. ordinance covering the subject is
 Tt shall be unlawful for the owner of any dog to permit the same to be upon the streets of the city between the first day of June and the first day of October ln each year without being muzzled It shall be the duty of the Chief of Police to have any dog found on any street in the city between the above named. dates without a muzzle, placed in the city pound to be kept there for three days but the owner of such dog. or any person of such dog by paying to the city the sum of $1 at any time within such three days: and if such dog is not so released 1t shall be killed after the expiration of such three days under the direction of the Chief of Police.
 .sThe Mayor is authorized to put the foregoing section into force at any other season than that mentioned herein by is- suing proclamation thereof for at feast five days"
 Mayor Joseph said yesterday afternoon that he had not been advised that there was any necessity for muzzling dogs and that the ordinance would not be made ef- 9ective by proclamation.
 Policemen say that the muzzlng ordi- nance has been what is termed "a dead letter law" but 1t may be enforced this summer.

She does all the work of attending to the bees. handling them without fear. and not a swarm has escaped her.
