TILLMANDE
AS AN IGNORANT
POLITICIAN
Mems Sunday Club at Pill
grim Baptist Church Pays
Its Repects to the South
Carolina Senator's Mime
apolis TRADE Against the
Negro.

senator Tillman is fanatic, ignor-
ant politician, without culture or re-
finement, woefully lacking in Informal
ton regarding the race question, and in
its discussion last Friday evening at
Minneapolis delivered an address re-
plete with vulgar words and phrases,
insulting every self-respecting colored
man in the United States"
Such was the consensus OF opinion
expressed by the speakers of the Mems
Sunday club at the Pilgrim Baptist
church yesterday afternoon, where a
special meeting was held to discuss
the Tillman incident. Many members
delivered short impromptu addresses
all roundly scoring the senior senator
from South Carolina. W. S. Francis
read number of editorials from st.
Paul and Minneapolis papers, all con-
demning the stand taken by Mr.. Till
man.
In the st. Paul G 10 b this morn
ing" said Mr.. Francis, there is an able
editorial which 1 must read to you,
for it shows conclusively how little
Mr.. Tillman IS thought of by the mem
bers of his own party.
This editorial" continued Mr..
x,
carries much weight, for it appears in
the only representative Democratic
paper in the Northwest. 1t shows us
clearly while the sentiments expressed
by Tillman may portray the feeling OF
the Southern Democrats that the mem
bers of the Northern branch of the
party harbor no such feeling"
F. L. McGhee. Rev. DR.. Carter and
several other members of the st. Paul
cOlOred colony who attended the Min
neapOlis meeting told of the impress
sion they gained by hearing the frey
senator deliver his harangue against
the negro.
Mr.. McGhee said that Mr.. Tillman's
story about his colored servant VIII .
loved his master, cared for his en-
ployer's family and property, but whs
had no desire to vote or look for So
Cial betterment. demonstrated plainly
the spirit Of apathy existing among a
great percentage of the colored people
all over the country.
Here in st. Paul" declared Mr.. Nc
Ghee, ARE 700 negroes such as de-
scribed by Mr.. Tillman. They tOdy
to their white brothers, they refuse to
exercise their right of franchise.
Until the negro asserts himself he
will be looked upon as an inferior"
continued Mr.. McGhee, 'and the only
way he can assert himself is by edu-
cation and the requirement of prop
erty. Political liberty will be followed
by social equality"
The speaker urged that the. negro
people band together in closely@allied
federation for the advancement of their
race.
More than 200 colored men and
women were present at the meeting,
which was one of the most enthusi-
astic sessions the club ever held. The
twenty or more speakers all scored
Senator Tillman in bitter terms. and
the trustees of the Minneapolis Bap-
fist church, where the senator spoke,
were also censured for renting the edi-
fee for such a purpose. s@-'

Many and many a child has been

ended in death by being improperly

poison to many a highly organized hu-

identity is unknown to the police. who
charge her with drunkenness.
The woman was first seen shortly
after 4 o'clock. She was pacing up
and down Winifred street talking to
herself in a loud voice. Several chill

large crowd was trailing after the
woman. Several times she stopped

When near the Great Western tracks
she called to the crowd that she was

woman before she had time to carry
out her intention. They then called
for help from the Ducas street station

Breaking the Trotting Record,

When the now World-famous horse
Lou Dillon, trotted a mile in Two
minutes fiat the other day, the dream
of generations, that sometimes there
would come a horse that would make
such speed, was realized. If we had
the money, time, effort and care that
we're spent through many years in
trying to bring forth such an animal
we would be somewhat richer than
we are, no doubt. Since the famous
Maud S. made a mile some years 400
in two minutes, five seconds 1--WE be-
lieve) it is safe to say that millions
Of dollars have been spent in trying
to produce a tWo-minute horse. So
eager have men been to save q few
seconds in the trOtting time of a
horse. The same is true in every de-
partment of industry and business in
day. Railroad companies will
tear up their road bed, tunnel a
mountain or trestle a river, at al
most any expense of means and eff
fort, to save a few minutes, or a few
seconds, in a long run. Men are will
ling to plank down their shekeIs to
save the seconds. And it pays fnan-
cially. This same Lou Dillon could
not find a sale at $3.50. Now her own-
er refuses, with scorn, an offer of
$4,000. Truly time is money, and a
great deal of it.-Christian Sun.

enjoyed by an heir-apparent. He was
born in a court that has never
changed it's etiquette from those
dreary days when it's kings and
princes, queens and ~princesses used
to go almost mad, sometimes quite
mad, from WEAKNESS in their exalted
loneliness. He was born of a family
that has become historic for stupid
ity, duIlness, and tendency to mel
ancholia. He was born of the most
degenerate and corrupted branch of
that family. Finally, he was born to
trouble and alarm, to Misunderstanding
sorrows and anxieties.
And now he has consumption.
Probably never in his whole life, his
sickIy, isolated, companionless, Ell
quette-bound life, was there a burst
of the real, the radiant sunshine of
happiness such as most children, even
foundlings and paupers, often bask
in.-Collier's Weekly.

Tom Johnson and Mark Hanna.

In Ohio, the campaign is a per-
sonal fight between Mayor Thomas
L. Johnson, of Cleveland, and Sena-
tor M. A. Hanna. johnson took the
Democratic nomination for Governor
against the advice of his friends, and
with no strong hope that he could be
elected over Col. Myron T. Herrick,
the Republican nominee. Herrick
will probably be elected, and thus
take a place we'll up toward the head
of the list of those mentioned for the
Republican nomination for Vice.
President. What Johnson has IN
mind is to win the Legislature away
from Senator Hanna, who comes up
for reelection at the hands of the
legislators chosen this fall. johnson
does not want to go to the Senate
Indeed, he put another man on the
ticket as the choice of the Democrats
for that honor, at the hands OF the
Legislature. johnson has Preslden-
tial ambitions. He wants to 60 be-
fore the Democratic National Con-
vention and say, II am the man who
defeated Mark Hanna"
Hanna and johnson are botn
strong men, hard fighters, good gen
erals, and each has all the money
needed. The personality Of Herrlck
will be lost-is lost already in the
struggle. Hanna is fighting for MS
political life, and johnson is fighting
for a nomination for President. Inc
whole campaign is predicated IN these
lines.-Collier's Weekly.

The Pitiful Career of a King.
Editor of The Progressive Farmer:

Those who have seen good pictures
of the little King of Spain are not
astOnished by the news that he has
developed consumption. A feeble
body, obviously tenanted by a feeble
mind, a narrow, sunken chest, a
frightful heredity, and an environ
ment as pitiable as a penitentiary-
such is the seventeen-year-old boy
whom destiny doomed to a lot about
as uneviable as that of any of these
fourteen hundred millions of human
creatures. He was born a king. He
never knew what it was to have even
the rare breaths of limited freedom

Why Macedonia Rebels.

So far as mere outrage and excess
go, there is probably not much to
choose between Bulgarian Komitadji
and Turkish irregular. The whole
land is savage. Brute slaughter and
rapine appear everywhere. It is easy
to make a case for either side. The
worst excuses are undoubtedly by
Moslems. Nothing can e~xaggerate,
and no words that can be printed a
describe, the woe and horror of the
past six months in Macedonia from
Turkish troops, regular and irregu-
lar. Not all that is told is true, but
enough is true to make worse hOr-
rOrs than any man dare tell. But
Turkish oppression has this about it
that it breeds madness. There is a
righteous insanity which oppression
must breed if freedom is to be won.
Given Russian policy as it now
stands, and there is no prospect in
any course but the hopeless struggle
into which the best of young Bulga-
ria has flung itself headlong, as
though life we're the least of earth's
goods. Turkish administration has
suffered the loss which af1icts all
things Turkish under the present
Sultan. Much once escaped the old
rude methods. AS the machine i'm
proves it grinds the more merciless-
ly. The Macedonian farmer pays a
1.-THE of 1912 per cent, an imperial
tax of Is, and faces an export duty
of 8 per cent, 35A per cent in all.
Head tax, license, road taxes-with
no roads-and all the various i'm
posts, from 35 to IS per cent of the
produce of labor, are swept into the
~gatherer's or, worse, tax-farmer's
hands. Heavy taxes exist in all Con-
tinental Europe, witness Italy; but
at least there is legal security. In
Turkey, while there is peace and
much prosperity for many, and a
steady growth of wealth and popula-
ton, there is never security. This
Expresses like a nightmare. More
than once, I have seen the immigrant
from Turkey in this country who
there had enjoyed some ease, posi-
ton, and wealth, and who here was
Vainly struggling for a bare, hard
livelihood, and, when I spoke of the
contrast, have been instantly told
that this was a small price to pay
for the mere sense of security under
