RALLY AROUND ROOSEVELT.

At a recent meeting Of the Afro
American Council, a resolution was
adopted urging the confirmation of
DR.. Crum. The members also issued
the following address:
1T is evident to the thoughtful
among US that we are passing
through one of the most critical
periods of our existence in this coun-
try. Questions that Immediately
concern the liberty and well-being of
one-eighth of the population of the
United States and scarcely to less de-
gree the whole population of the
country are pressing for treatment
as never before.

a systematic effort has been i'll
augurated on the part of the South
which has for its object the with
drawal of the franchise from the
Afro-AmericanS Of that section and
their reduction to 4 position Of abso-
lutte subserviencv III all the relations
of life. 1t has been openly declared
by some of the most prominent lead
ers of the South that it was the in
tention of the trainers Of the new
constitutions to disfranchise as many
Afro-Americans as possibly and leave
every Caucasian i'll full possession of
the suffrage. The effect has been that
not only has the Afro-American been
DISTINGUISHED, but also that a very
large number of Caucasians who
previous to the adoption of these
constitutions participated i'll cleo
tions have ceased to register and
vote
eve contend for our constitutional
rights on the ground that the right
of suffrage has been conferred upon
it's citizens by the Federal Govern
ment.
eve heartily commend the Afro
Americans of Virginia, Alabama,
Louisiana and other States who are
seeking redress through the courts of
the land, and we pledge them our
moral and financial support.
eve denounce the mob murders
now so prevalent in this country.
eve call the attention of the coun-
try to a condition of service on many
farms in number of Southern States
resembling very much the old peon-
age system and ask for legislation
looking to the remedying Of the evil.
eve submit our protest against
the unfair practices in the transport
tation of passengers in Southern
States, discriminating unjustly
against Afro-Americans, requiring OF
them the highest rates for travel and
providing i'll return the poorest ac-
commodations i'll carriage; and we
invoke the exercise of the powers Of
the Interstate Commerce Commits
sion by that tribunal to prevent dis.
ordinations in rates and accommo.
dations against interstate passen.
gers.
1--WE appeal to Congress for favor
able action upon one of the several
measures now pending therein for
the appointment of a commission to
inquire into the condition ofthe Afro
Americans of the country.
eve heartily indorse the deliver
ances of President Roosevelt with
reference to the fitness for appoint,
ment to the office and the attitude OF
the Federal Government toward all
of its citizens, regardless of race or
color. He has impaired new life and
vigor to the time honored principles
and traditions of human rights and
has given hope and inspiration to a
people struggling heroically beneath
the burden OF hate and prescription.
We commend Theodore Roosevelt to
the affection and confidence of our
people regardless of party afillia-

COMMITTEE CHOSEN.

The Democratic State Central
Committee met in Baltimore on We'd
nesday. The following committee of
seven was appointed to take charge
of the local campaign i'll Baltimore
City: Douglas H. Thomas, George
r. Numsen, Joseph Friedenwald,
James r. Wheeler, Charles A. Webb,
Henry ]. McGrath and Edward X.
Pattison. 1t is stated that Mr.
Douglas II. Thomas will be chair
man of the committee and Mr.. w. F.
Porter, secretary. The State Central
Committee was called for this special
purpose and adjourned as soon as
the business had been accomplished.
The committee of seven will have
entire charge of the Democratic cam
paign in Baltimore next spring, when
the mayor and a portion of the city
council will be chosen. Its powers
will be almost absolute and it will
doubtless exercise great influence in
the choice of candidates. 1t is I'M
necessary to state that the personnel
of the committee will appealto every
one. A careful survey will show that
it does not SAVIOR of the practical
politician in any particular. On the
contrary, it has only good clean pro-
gressive business men who have de-
voted their entire lives to the best
interests of the city. The State Cen
trail Committed is to be congratulated
upon its action. Its part has now
been done. The question remains
will the individual Democrats do
theirs?

Consumption is a human
weed fourishing best in weak
lungs. Like other weeds it's
easily destroyed while young;
when old, sometimes inn
possible.
Strengthen the lungs as you
would weak land and the
weeds will disappear.
The best lung fertilizer is
SCOTS Emulsion. Salt pork
is good too, but it is very hard
to digest.
The time to treat consump-
ton is when you begin trying
to hide it from yourself.
Others see it, you won't.
Don't wait until you can't
deceive yourself any longer.
Begin with the HrSl thOuSnt
to take SCOTS Emulsion. If
it isn't really consumption so
much the better; you will soon
forget it and be better for the
treatment. If it is consump-
ton you can't expect to be
cured at once, but if you will
begin in time and will be
rigidly regular in your treat
ment you will win.
SCOTS Emulsion, fresh air,
rest all you can, eat all you
can, that's the treatment and
that's the best treatment.

National Aid to
Road Improvement.

The plan proposed in the house
bill No. 1869, introduced by the
writer on the first day Of the pres
ent session of congress, seeks to
establish II policy. to be pursued
bv the United States government
in reference to the permanent
Improvement of the public high
ways Of the country. Some Will
say that such Improvement is
outside the jurisdiction OF the
general government. but the con
stitutiOn was ordained and eStab-
lished (among other things) to
promote the general welfare and
congress is especially authorized
to "establish postotfices and post
roads" Few things will con
tribute more in a time Of peace
and industrial prosperity to the
general welfare than the perDa-
nent Improvement Of the pubic
roads. aud there never was
time when congress could so ap
propriately exercise. its power to
establish pOSt-rOadS as at present.
when to use the language Of the
presidents message: "Rura1 free
delivery service is no longer IN
the experimental stages: it has
become a fixed policy. The re-
suits following its Introduction
have fully justified the congress
in the large appropriations made
for its establishment and exten-
SION Every such rural free
delivery route is a post-road.
It is we'll known that the con-
eress of the United States. dur
ing the early history OF the re-
public. appropriated large sums
of money to build and maintain q
system Of national roads. the
most famous one of which IS
known as the "Old Cumberland
Road" and by reason OF It's pre-
eminence, the ''Old National
Road" This road was started
in the year 1911, Ut Cumberland,
Md. and continued almost due
west in practically a straight line
through Mary land, Pennsylvania
Ohio. Indiana and Illinois to st.
Louis. and is said to be the long
est straight road ever built by
any government in the world.
Though never fully completed on
the western extremity, it was
substantially seven hundred miles
long. and it cost about seven
million dollars. or practically ten
thousand dollars Il mile.
The subsequent abandonment
of the policy of the United States
government, as expressed and
carried out in this gaeat road, has
led many persons to suppose that
the entire question Of rOad-buIld-
mo or substantial aid thereto. so
far as the United States govern
ment is concerned, had been set
tied and disposed Of for all time;
, hut q careful examination OF the
controversy, which ended IN the
abandonment of the former policy
of the United States, will show
that it turned more upon the
question of jurisdiction pertain
mo TO, the control of the road by
the United States government.
through whose territory the road
nassed, than upon the right OF
congress to make appropriations
to.build such roads. Most Of the
trouble resulted from the attempt
to collect toll for the use OF the
! road. and not on account or ap-
preparations OF money from the
