Stoekmen to Organize.

Knoxville, Tenn, April 24.-The
following circular letter is being
sent out by Prof. A. M. Soule, of
the University Of Tennessee:
The live stock interests of Tennes-
see have been looking up very much
of late and there is a general feeling
that the stockmen should get togeth,
er and organize. A stock breeders
association is now in existence in
every state where the live stock in
terest is an important consideration.
At the request of a number of lead
ing stock breeders the writer hereby
issues a call for a meeting to be held
at the State Capitol, in Nashville,
on May Is, for the purpose of or
ganizing a live stock breeders asso-
citation for Tennessee and discussing
matters o general interest to the
stockmen.
The Tennessee Worlds Fair Com
mission has agreed to pay transpor-
tation charges on live stock to and
from the Worlds Fair. 1t has also
authorized the appointment of a live
stock Inspector, whose duty it shall
be to work up an interest In this
exhibit. 1t is of the utmost i'm
portance that the stockmen of the
state get together and take action on
this very important matter. A cred
liable display at St. Louis will do
Vonro 70 oAuorIcn fHnnnnncan live
stock and create a demand for it
than anything else that could be
done at the present time.
There is not a stockman in Ten
nessee who is not interested in this
meeting You can afford to make
the necessary sacrifice to go and
push along a project that means so
much to the state. The very best
men in the state are interested u
this movement, which is absolutely
open and above board. Our stock
men have long wanted just such an
opportunity, and now that it has
come, let them take full advantage
of it. The sending of a representa-
tive exhibit of horses, mules, cattle
sheep and swine to ST. Louis is ouly
the beginning of the good work a
live stock association can do for the
breeders.
Through the Office of a permanent
secretary a record of the different
breeders can be maintained and thus
reliable information of the greatest
value to them and to intending pur-
chasers would always be available.
The character of stock maintained
by the various breeders would be-
come generally known and an edu-
cational campaign for the improve
ment of the live stock of the state
could be conducted with gratifying
results. The need for All aggressive
organization was shown by the out
rageous attempt made to bar the
Southwestern Poland China Breed
ers, with headquarters at Gadsden,
Tenn, from exhibition privileges al
st. Louis.
This meeting is purely in the in
of the live stock breeders of
the state. There is now an oppor-
to push Tennessee live stock
to the front and make a record of
the breeders of the state will
be proud. The of this meet
ing will depend on the enterprise of
the breeders. Do not fail to be
there and shoulder your part of the
responsibility. A tentative program
will be issued shortly.

Sermon by Oliver Johnson.

The Rev. Oliver johnson, a distin-
guished minister in South Carolina of
the Seceder faith, will preach the bacca.
laureate sermon at the approaching COM
mencement in the College of William
and Mary, and this causes the Charleston
News and Courier, whose editor, the ac-
c0mplished James Calvin Hemphill, grew
up on "Seceder'' -"Seceder' being
the name commonly applied to psalm
singing Presbyterian in the South--to
express the hope that "good meat of
'Seceder' flavor thus assured to the Vir-
ginians will agree with their commence
ment Digestion"
At William and Mary the sermon will
be preached on June 20. On June s Mr..
johnson will preach the sermon at the
commencement of the theological semi
nary at Due West, S. G. Due West is the
college town of the Seceders, and when
invited to serve there at the next COM
mencement Mr.. johnson said. "The re-

The Negro SociologicaIIy.

81 have heard from several Atlanta
ladies' of their experience with negro
women taught at Booker Washing
toms school at Tuskegee, and have
been told that women educated at
this school are totally unreliable as
servants"
This statement was made by DR..
j. Q. Olmsted, a prominent physi-
clan of Atlanta, at the meeting of
the Georgia State Sociological So
ciety in Atlanta recently, and among
others of similar nature, which pre-
cipitated lively discussion at the
meeting. The discussion at the time
followed the reading of a paper by
DIR. w. II. Jones, of that city, on
"The Reliability of the Negro"
Another statement, made by DIR.
Olmsted, was that the negro was
"better off mentally, morally and
physically as a slave"
A number of the delegates to the
meeting of the Sociological Society
took part in the discussion, among
them being the Rev. G. A. Langston
and DR.. II. E. Oertel. DR.. Oertel
characterized himself as "recon-
structed Yankee" and spoke on the
subject of the "Negro as an Agent
for the Spread Of Disease"

and logical day on which to lay the

capitol, that Ia expected TO en22are

meut, It's part, TO the men 3ry Of
Mississiapie gtsetea. end mAst re,
nowned citizen. Thousands ~ Mis-.
sissippi's brayest sons and ,tirest
daughters had assembled to witness
this grand, solemn and imposing cere-
mony. This eager and expectant
audience reasonably contemplated
that the distinguished speaker would
marshal in review before them such
characters, epoohs aud events as had
contributed to the growth, grandeur
and glory of the Commonwealth.
State pride, common consent of all
patriotic Mississippiahs, and the
spontaneous suggestion of the hour,
all conspired in according the seat of
honor to the memory Of President
Davis. And yet, to the life, charac-
ter, eveptfui history, comprehensive
career and marvellously splendid
record of this citizen, scholar, histo-
riaa, soldier, statesman, Senator,
cabinet officer, Chief Executive, sac
rifioial hero and Mississippi planter,
Bishop Galloway hastily and laconi-
cally accorded exactly twenty lines
of his lengthy address, and passing
on, devoted more than five times that
amount of time and space to the
negro, who had nothing to do with
the history of Mississippi; who, in
fact, was an unbidden and unwel-
come guest at the historical banquet,
notwithstanding he was introduced
and chaperoned by Bishop Galloway.
If, instead of all that appeared in his
published speech about the negro, he
had left blank space and written
across it, "Ten Years of Negro Rule"
he would have epitomized all that
was necessary to have been said
about the connection of the African
race with the history of this proud
and potential State.
THE bishops ERRORS FULL OF EVIL
POSSIBILITIES.
The prestige of Bishop Galloway,
SSPOOi"iJ WIN Vic cCOtcbluSUlCdl
world, invests the boldness of his
errors with far reaching possibilities
of evil. If such unnatural oonvic-
tions as he expresses should find ex-
tensive and permanent lodgment in
the minds of the people North and
South, the result would be hideous in
the moral trend of racial relations
and disastrous to white civilization.
1mpelled only by stern sense of
duty as a white man and citizen,
we nave reluctantly challenged the
integrity of his declarations and the
logic of his deductions. AS an hum
BILE and unpretentious advocate Of
the white mans government; in de-
fence of the sacred heritage which,
in the wisdom of omnipotence, has
descended from the morning of crea-
ton to the children of the laboring
white man, we take the liberty Of
solemnly warning the young men of
Mississippi against the perils of
priesthood in the civil and political
autonomy of the State.

ington, d. c., writes, under date of April
Ia, 'O4, as follows: Last February, one
year, while in New York on business for
my, house, l caught a severe cold, which
laid mo up for several weeks and left me
weak and nervous. 1 had little or no
appetite, and my digestion was very
poor. My physicians could not get at
the cause of my trouble, as my digestion
seemed so much impaired. decided to
try Rydale's Stomach Tablets, being as
sured by friend they were good dys-
pepsia medicine. After using them for
a few days, l began to realize that was
getting better. l gave up the Doctors
prescription and have gained 20 pounds
while using two boxes of these tablets.
L never felt better in my life, and ac-
credit Rydale's Stomach Tablets with
having cured me. I can recommend
them, most heartily, to sufferers from
nervous indigestion and general run
down conditions of the system. Walhalla
