SATURDAY, MARCH %, 1908.

At Washington, D. c.; last Sunday,
representatives Of the Pen and Pen
Gil Club and some prominent citizens
were received at the Ebbitt House by
Archbishop Ireland. They called to
express their gratitude and apprecia-
ton for his unwavering stand for hui
man rights.
Replying, Archbishop Ireland said:
Few things have happened to me
of late that really give me more pleas
ure than meeting so many intelligent
representatives of the colored race as
l do this evening. Now, as you have
said, the few words I spoke in Chi
-cago are but the repetition of what
I have said on many occasions, when
ever the opportunity offered, and but
the expression of the deepest convic-
items OF my heart. L nave never uIl-
derstood how it is that any American
or Christian could hold other views
than what 1 have held and what I
hold, and I hold those views simply
because am an American and be-
cause I am a Christian, and an AM
erican means a child of liberty

National Business Leaque.

Editor, The Appeal:-I take the lib
erty of asking the use of the columns
of your valued newspaper to remind
our people of the fourth annual meet
ing of the National Negro Business
League to be held in Nashville, Tenn,
during the coming summer. The peo-
pie of Nashville have already begun
making thorough and elaborate prep
arations for the meeting of the
League, and from every point of view
the next gathering promises to be the
largest and mast important in the
history of the organization. espe-
cially desire to request that local Ne
gro Business Leagues be organized
and sustained in every. community
where there are no such Leagues at
the present time; and in this connec-
ton, to express the wish that new life
and vigor, be put into the work of the
local Leagues already organized.
1T SENS to be the universal verdict
of our people that since the organiza-
ton of the National Negro Business
League at Boston in 1900, the bust
ness interests of our people have been
stimulated and increased throughout
the country many per cent, and all
agree that the National Negro Bust
ness League has more than justified
it's existence 1t is important that To-
cal organizations begin at once to pre-
pare to send delegates to the national
meeting to be held in Nashville.
In this connection, | wish to call
attention to the fact that the report
of the proceedings of the third an
nual session of the League, held at
Richmond, has been published, and
that copies of the report may be Sc
cured by writing Mr.. S. Laing Will

At Tuskegee, Alabama, for Southern
School Teachers.
We are pleased to mention in these
columns of the Tuskegee Summer
School for teachers that will be held
at the Tuskegee Normal and Industrial
Institute at Tuskegee, Ala, during the
coming summer. The school will be
/ cid under the auspices of the General
Educational Board, will be in session
six weeks, from June 29 to August Z,
and will furnish an excellent oppor-
tunity to teachers in the south for
studying the methods employed in the
best primary, secondary and high
schools in the country, of presenting
subjects taught in these schools in the
most interesting and effective manner.
Friday. June a26th, is the day of en-
ro,lment and on this day it will be nee
essary for all teachers who have not
had experience in some good high.

The Newspaper Deadhead.

Why should people ask for free news
papers, asks the Toronto Evening Tel
egram, any more than they look for
free cigars, free umbrellas free walk
ing sticks, free collars, free cuffs or
free beefsteaks? Every copy of
newspaper is a product which costs
money. The tailor, the tobacconist,
the gents furnisher or the grocer is
not called upon to supply free copies
Of the products which they handle.
The people who are aggrieved if they
cannot get free copy Of newspaper
would not think of struggling for
place on the free list of grocery store,
a dry goods store or butchers shop.
It is the principle moref than the
cost of the free newspaper idea which
is repugnant to all sound business no
lions.
