This resolution was introduced by Sam
Parks. and the complete control that
he has OF the convention was demon
strated when it was adopted without a
dissenting vote The convention gave
another demonstration OF its subservience

seats in its chamber or place in the
electoral college. This congress can do
constitutional!y. This congress ought
to do, and it would unquestionably set
tie the problem. The claim OF the
south that it was mistake to put the
ballot in the hands of the Negro, that
it had only resulted in harm. is un-
founded. 1t is not true. The ballot was
put in the hands of the Negro as war
measure to conserve and preserve the
result of the war; and to help in the re-
construction of the union.
The New Orleans mes-Democrat is
of the opinion that DR.. Hilliss faith
in the Negro is the faith of a fanatic.
His hope for the negro is the hope OF
the emotionalist. His denunciation of
the south is the denunciation of a man
whose motive is pure but whose intel
ect is befogged. He represents that
constantly diminishing element at the
north whose fate 1t is that it has failed
to keep up with the progress of modern
thought. 1t is gratifying to know that
on this race question the public Senti-
ment in the north is reflected not by
DR.. Hills. but by such men as Mr.
Cleveland, DR.. Abbott, and DR.. Park
hurst" Against this editorial dictum
might be set the statement of the New
York Evening Post that the three SER
mons quoted above prove the awaken
ing of the north to the new southern
peril to our colored ow-citizens and
to our institutions"

THE CHURCH AND THE NEGRO.
Three Sermons on the Negro Problem
by Prominent QiXincs.

by Prominent Divincs.
Some observers think that they have
seen IN the utterances of Dr. Lyman
Abbott and the Rev. Charles H. Park
hurst on the negro question, a recrud-
essence of the Indifference to the well
fare of the negro that marked many
northern pulpits during the struggle
over slavery. AS the Brooklyn Times
says: "Glergymen of high distinction
have taken the ground in public that
the enfranchisement of the negro was
mistake: that the fifteenth amend
ment should be repealed, and that the
south should be left to deal with the
negro as it pleases. Fortunately, this
is not the attitude of the leaders of
thought in the northern pulpit, and
there is no reason to suppose that it
ever will be-
Foremost among those to whom the
above structures do not apply is the
Rev. DR.. Newell Dwight Hills, the oc-
cupant of Beecher's old pulpit in Ply
mouth church. In recent sermon DR..
Hills declared his belief in universal
suffrage for white and black, for the
yellow man and for the red man. 1t is
{
stand for the equality of the black
man. Another Brooklyn minister the
Rev. DR.. Dean Richmond Babbitt, of
the Protestant Episcopal church, of the
Epiphany, said in sermon preached
the same day: The attitude of the
south toward the negro today is not
defensib!e, except on pleas utterly un-
American. Its plea for Anglo-Saxon
dominance, it's prejudice against the
negro. it's systematic attempt to multi
fly the constitution of the United States,
all are but a far off echo of strident
voices heard for thirty years before the
civil war settled forever the overween-
ing pride and arrogance of state SOW
eregnty. 1t was feudal in its ideas and
impulses before the war; 1t is feudal
today in all its ideas. impulses. legis-
lation, and methods pertaining to the
negro. Ii is trying to shut the door of
in the face Of the black
man on grounds of race and color. 1t
is rapidly robbing the negro by a de-
liberate system. of not only political
rights, but inalienable natural rights,
the rights of life. liberty and happiness.
Why should the north let the south
settle alone this great national prob
lem? We are first Americans, then
members of state or section, and the
negro belongs to the north as we'll as
to the south. The negro problem is
a United States problem
There was still another sermon on
the same day in which Brooklyn
minister expressed himself forcibly on
the question of negro suffrage. The
Rev. DR.. David Gregg, of the Lafayette
avenue Presbyterian church, declared
that congress should refuse all repre-
sentatives elected by those districts
which nullified these three amendments

"The Yellowstone Park is something
absolutely unique in this world, as far
as l know. Nowhere else in any CIVIL
ICED country is there to be found such
G tract Of veritable wonderland, made
accessible to all visitors, where at the
same time not only the scenery Of the
wilderness, but the wild creatures of
the park, are scrupulousiy preserved"
President Roosevelt.
This delightful spot IS more easily
reached via the Union Pacific than by
any other line. The stage ride from
Monida, by the splsrdid Concord
coaches of the Monica e Yellowstone
Stage Company. is thru scenery hardly
inferior to the park itself.
The popular route to the Yellowstone
Park is now via the Union Pacific.

FOR TOBACCO TEST
DR.. Wiley to Begin Series Of
Experiments In Use of
Cheap Tobaccoes
SECRETS OF THE CHEAP CIGAR
Its Effect and That of the cigares on
the Smoker Will Be Tested on Class
of Eighteen Young Men in tho Agri.
cultural Departments at Washina-
ton.

Washington. July 11.-Professrr VIII
ment, will conduct another experiment
this fall which will attract as much
attention as did the famous squad of
twelve poison eaters" that for seven
months was subjected to experiments
with food adulterants at Professor
Wiley's .borax boarding house The
experiments to begin in the fall will be
for the purpose of determining the eff
feet OF tobacco, good. bad, and indiffer-
ent, pure and impure. and domestic and
imported, upon the heart, lungs, and d.
gestive organs and the human system
generally.
Professor Wiley believes the expert
ments will not only be of interest 10 the
smokers thruout the country. but will
prove Of value to the manufacturers
OF various forms of tobacco. During
the first thirty days Of the expert
ments the members of the squad will
not be permitted to use tobacco in any
form. Thus all the members will be-
gin on the same basis.
After the expiration of the thirty
days each man will be given an al
lowance of tobacco each day. What will
be known as smokers squad" will
begin its work" with three cigars a
day, one to be smoked after each meal.
Gradually this allowance will be in
creased. Cigars Of every kind will be
used, including domestic, Porto Rican,
Philippine. Cuban, and other imported
brands. This plan has been adopted
to determine the relative harmfulness
of each. After sufficient data has been
obtained relative to cigars the squad
will be provided with pipes and snok-
ing tobacco and more data will be OBJ
tanned.
Then the cigaret fiends will be given
an inning. They will be divided into
two squads, "inhalers" and nominal
ers." and the results OF excessive and
moderate smoking are to be noted with
particular attention. Still another
squad will be provided with plugs of
chewing tobacco and government GUS
pidors and instructed to chew as much
tobacco as possible Shutters" will
be given government snuff boxes and
the best brands of powdered weed, and
the effects of the southern practice of
dipping" will be tested to determine
the effect on the system.
One month prior to the date set for
the conclusion of the experiments and
the disarmament of the tobacco users,
the men will again be forbidden the
use Of tobacco in any form, and the
results OF this sudden stoppage and
the effect upon the physical condition
of the squad viii be carefully noted.
A large number of clerks of the agri-
cultural department have offered their
services for the experiments.

Joint Board of Army and
Navy Officers to Be APP
pointed Soon
WILL FoRTIFY PANAMA CANAL
Principal Object is to Insure co-opera-
ton Between Army and Navy in the
Matter of National Offense and De-
tense During Times Of War-Want to
Avoid Friction.

Washington, July 11.-Secretaries
conference yesterday during which
they discussed the appointment of a
joint board of army and navy officers
to devise plans for the national de-
Tense and for fortifying the Panama
canal. This board will be appointed
when the general staff of the army be-
gins it's work at the retirement of Cen
eral Miles on Aug. s.
Representatives of the army will be
detailed from the general staff, and
those for the navy will be selected from
the general board of the navy, of which
Admiral Dewey is a member. The
chief object of the joint board will be
to insure the cooperation of the army
and navy. in devising and executing
plans of offense and defense in times
of war, and particularly the harmonious
conduct Of operations, at naval stations
where Notifications and land defenses
have been established by the army, as
will be the case in Cuba at Guantana-
mo and Bahia Honda.
The most important topic which
will be brought to the commissioner s
attention is that Of the plans of forth
flying the canal. While there has been
little attention devoted to this subject
by army and navy officers, enough has
been said to note considerable differ
ence Of opinion. Army officers think
that forts to be garrisoned by artillery
men should be erected at the entrance
OF the canal, while many naval officers
hold that the duty of guarding the wat
erway should be entrusted to fleet.
1t will be for the joint commission to
thoroughly discuss this subject and re-
port scheme which can be put into
operation without causing friction be-
tween the military and naval services.
Secretary Root will announce the ap-
pointment of the personnel Of the army
contingent upon his return from Oyster
Bay, where he goes to consult Pres
ident Roosevelt about the matter. Gen
eral S. NJ. B. Young, who will be chief
of the army staff, will in all probability
be the principal representative of the
land forces, while Admiral Dewey,
president Of the general board OF the
navy, or Rear Admiral Taylor. chief OF
the bureau of navigation, will repre-
sent the sea force.

lnter-Denominational Unity,
[Rev. J. S. Moore.l

Rev. j. S. MoOre.l
Before we advocate inter- denomina-
tional unity, it might be better to see
just what could be accomplished in the
way of denominational unity. There
are at present thirteen kinds of Bap-
lists. twenty divisions among the Lu-
therans. seventeen branches of the
Methodist church and twelve of the
Presbyterian. AT present there seems
to be little disposition on the part OF
these divisions to consolidate under the
one denomination to which they are
most nearly akin. And until that is
done it does not seem as though the
time was ripe for an inter-denomina-
tional union. However, there are some
forms of union which are desirable
and which must come first: allow me
to simply call attention to them: /.
That which we now have In our Sab
bath school. Christian Endeavor and
Y. NJ. C. A. conventions. 2. A union OF
the different branches of each denoml-
nation. 3. A willingness on the part
of the Individual to work and worship
with some other church when the one
Of his choice is not represented In the
community where he resides. 4. That
which is being agitated in the Church
of England today-tne common COM
munion table. 5. INSTRUMENTATION
comfy. This reform, II accomplished,
would satisfy nine tenths OF the de-
mand for union OF the denominations.
