SENATOR TURNER'S S CAREER.

| George Turner of Spokane, the democratic cand
date for governor of Washington was born at Edna
Mo-, February 26, 1850, says the Tacoma Ledger
He received a common school education and after
wards studied law and was admitted to the bar. He
was appointed by President Grant United States
marshal for the southern and middle districts of
Alabama and filed the Office from 1876 to 1880
President Arthur in 1884 appointed Mr.. Turner as
socate justice of the supreme court of the territory
Of Washington, a position he held until January
10, 1886. He was member of the constitutional
convention which framed the constitution for this
state. In 1896 Mr. Turner left the republican party
and supported Mr.. Bryan for president. The fusion
of democrats, silver republicans and populists car
ried the state that year for Mr. Bryan and elected
majority of the legislature. Mr. Turner was elected
ito the United States senate to succeed Watson C.
Squire and served in the senate from March L. 1897
tc March 8, 1908. Senator Turner was assigned to
several important committees in the senate, serving
on the judiciary and commerce committees, besides
the committee on nteroceanc canals coast defenses
fisheries immigration, pensions and public buildings
President Roosevelt recognized Senator Turner'S
ability by naming him, with Secretary of War Root
and Senator Lodge of Massachusetts, as the American
members of the joint high commission to settle the
Alaska boundary question. The British members Of
the commission were Lord Chief Justice Alverstone,
Sir Louis A. Jette and A. B. Aylesworth, the last
two being Canadians. The commission sat in Lon
don and after hearing elaborate arguments made an
award, the lord chief justice concurring with the
American contention in regard to the Interpretation
to be placed on the treaty of 1926 between Great
Britain and Russia regarding the disputed boundary
Ex-senator Turner was prominently mentioned as
"a candidate for the evice-presidental nomination re-
ceivng 100 votes for the nomination on the only
ballot taken in the convention Turner received the
solid vote Of Idaho, Minnesota, Montana, Nebraska,
Oregon, Utah, Washington, Alaska, Arizona and
Hawaii and support from Colorado, Delaware and
the Philippine islands. Senator Turner was in no
sense an active candidate for the nomination Of gov
ernor of Washington, but was nominated by accla-
nation IN response to conviction that he was easily
the foremost and strongest democrat that could be
named for the place. Washington has no democrat
who is more widely and favorably known nor who
has shed more luster on the commonwealth through
his distinguished public services.

The literary department, as is well
known is under Mr.. r. G. Bruce. Stu
dents in this are drilled in English,
p the sciences, history, and mathematics
as far as trigonometry. Mr.. Lamont
of the New York Evening Post said
he had been on the examing board OF
schools of Rhode Island, and was once
a teacher in Harvard College, and
that the teaching at Tuskegee, would
be classed as excellent in any school
in the North. He said that the idea
prevailed North that the schools in

the South generally were not up to
date, but he had found the contrary
true, and that modern and scientific
methods were being used in the
Southern schools and that the teachers
were right up to date with everything
This is a very high testimonial and
speaks loudly in emphasis of the fact
that industrial schools can be greatly
assisted by the graduates of those
schols which are pronouncedly liter
ary; for nearly all the teachers at Mr..
Washington's school are products of
such schools as Fisk, Atlanta, Shaw
etc. The industrial schools can be best
managed by men and women who have
both head and hand trained, and this
is the idea on which Tuskegee is run,
from its distinguished principle down
to the superintendent Of the pig pens.

Fisk furnished music at intervals dur
ing the sessions of the Conference.
Both plantation melodies and classical
selections were rendered. Infammatus
Ascensus at the evening session was
especially well rendered, also my Old
Kentucky Home. The music, like all
else at Tuskegee, was first class.
The Workers Conference occupied
the second day, and subjects pertaining
to reaching the people through the
teachers otherwise than in the school
room were discussed, the idea being
to keep the people in touch with the
school and break the growing tendency
of the school to be considered as sepa-
rate from the interests Of the people.
Various methods and plans were gone
over in this meeting to show what
| teachers could do towards helping the
people buy homes, improve them,
raise poultry and supphes,-and sup
state fund ran them for only two and
three months. One young man in this
meeting showed how he had formed a
stock company and established a school
and white people contributed, and in
two years he had raised about $4,000,
and his school was running nicely with
two hundred and fifty pupils. The
work of reaching the native preachers
by Bible classes at Tuskegee was also
outlined, showing how all denomina-
tiOns were after ding these classes.
Many of the preachers cultivated their
farms during the day and studied at
night All kinds of doctrines were
discussed and there was no bad feel
each one gathering from what went
on whatever was of interest to him
self and his work. The result was
better preaching and better pastoral
work in the communities where these
ministers labored,- of whom
have two and three churches.
Tuskegee is helping the Negro to
reap some of the fruits of his toll for
himself and check his tendency to
,uild for others exclusively by the prac-
tice of vicious habits and extravaganza.
The work at Tuskegee itself is a grand
one, but coupled with the idea Of the
Farmers and Workers Conference, it
is still grander. In the first place it is
reaching a people who need it,-in the
second place it is reaching a people
who would not get such help otherwise.
The children of these people who
would not get such help otherwise. The
children of these people until the fourth
generation might grow up in ignorance
and serfdom but for this help. Some
of our friends have attempted to classi-
fly Booker Washington as a "sham-'

work of uplifting the Negro in the

Methodist class meeting where those
present give their experience in tenn
poral affairs rather than spiritual. Mr..
Washington with his efficient secre-
tary, Mr.. E. J. Scott, presided at all
these meetings, and first states the OBJ
ject, insisting that each one who speaks
should stick to the truth-if condi-
t1Ons are bad in his community, say
so, and if they are good, say so,-
paint the picture as it really is. Both
men and women rise up in different
parts Of the large assembly room from
time to time to tell whether the people
are buying homes, how long the schools
run, what has been done to supple
ment the State fund and lengthen the
term, what kind of teachers they have,
what kind of ministers they have,-if
the teachers and preachers are moral
if the people are growing better in
morals or wOrse,-how much land the
speaker cwns, how many rooms to his
house, is it painted or whitewashed-
is it mortgag ged, how much land has he
is it mOrtgaged- he make lien
bonds or raise his own supplies-is
he giving anything to the cause of
education? These are the subjects
touched upon by the various speakers.
The majority seemed to see some i'm
prOFement along various lines and cit
ed instances of progress. One man
stated that the people on the large
plantations could not be reached on
the subject of fornication and adultery
because the white landlords would not
allow the colOred preachers or any one
else to interfere with those colored
people who were thus living. The
landlord would not have them indicted
by the grand jury for fear they might
run away and thus deprive his plan
tation of hands, and tolerated anything
the cOlOred people did along these lines
provided they were good "hands for
work" This man said he could tell
more, but fatty refused to go into de-
tails saying that he might get Unto
a hole" One Of the best speeches and
accounts were given by a Miss Bowen
of Talladega County, she showed how
the people of her community-hadc con-
tributed six or eight hundred dollars
to supplement the public school fund,
and that she was teaching the people
to get homes, and that they we're get
ting them and placing over the door
a prohibitory sign forbidding the pres
ence of the disreputable. A man from
this same section, eight miles away
from Miss Bowen, stated that the Ne
groes in his community were abso-
lutely worthless, and he didn't see
one that was worth educating. He
thought it was throwing away money
to try-he also scored the school teach
ers and preachers as being worthless.
He stated that he had children but he
didn't have one fit to -educate-and
didn't believe much in education any
way. Some one asked this man if he
owned any land, he said no. He was
asked by an old tim6 brother" from

Jabson, a prisoner in the Green coun-
ty Jail, made his escape, He was aided
by William Cleveland, a former pris-
oner, and together they attacked Mrs.
Gardner, wife of the sheriff, knocking
her down and locking her in cell,
When sho was discovered aud liherat-
ed it was found that her left shoulder
was dislocated, and she was otherwise
very badly bruised. Sheriff Gardner
had gone TO Madison to attend the
Republican state convention.
