NEGROES 10 NEGROES.
Good Advice That Thinkers of tbe Co., ored Race Have Been Giving
 The Members.

1t IS undSn1aDly true that the negro race as 8 whole suffers for the sins of some of some of it's members. A terrible negro crime receives more attention from the public than the work of some negro school. But thou sands of negroes are doing good work in trying to lead the men and women of their race along proper paths, says the Little Rock Gazette.
 The speakers at the annual meeting of the Consolidated White River Baptist Association, a negro organization that has just finished its sessions at New port, gave much good advice.
 ''l have no faith in a negro who is always standing around on the street corners talking about white folks won't allow him to do this, that and the other,'' said Rev. J. D. Hum phrey, moderator of the associa- tion. Every negro has 1t in his power to be something if he will, and if he fails it is his fault and not the white mans. l tell you we have reached the place in life where we must think more of ourselves. l love the black man because he forms part of me, and the negroes who are trying to get away from their race are the negroes who are doing us untold haru,."
 w. A. Byrd, principal of the Cotton Plant Industrial Academy, a negro institution, writes to the Gazette to say that it is now time for the intelligent and law, loving negroes of the South to unite in one grand endeavor to wipe out the stygma now attached to the negro as race. /" He adds:
 Let the decent negroes speak out. Silence on our part may be justly taken as indifference or acquiesence in these acts of bru- tality. Every negro should be compelled to have an occupation that is respectable. Any negro seen with a deadly weapon should be made to pay a penalty for 1t. Every barber must have razors, but he has no need to go with one continually in his pocket. The negro must learn that 1t IS his duty to be an honorable man and citizen.
 The azor-carrying alley negro is a veritable brute. AS such he must be treated until he reforms. The dagger-carrying negro is a murderer and he must be taught the lessons that murderers learn ultimately. The pistol-carrying man is a veritable coward and murderer, and should not be fined $50, but be imprisoned at hard labor.
 The better negroes are entitled to the sympathy and the support of the whites in their efforts to reclaim the unfortunate and the, vicious of their race.

GOVERNOR TO BE PRESENT
Will Attend All Exercises in Honor of President Except Banquet, But Will
 Not Dine With Powell Clayton.

] Little Rock, Oct. 15. Govern or Jeff Davis has announced that
 he will remain in Little Rock to take part in the reception and entertainment of President Roosevelt as far as the visit to
 Fort Logan H. Roots and the mass meeting at the city park is concerned, but he has reitera- ted his declaration that he will not sit at the same table with Gen. Powell Clayton at the lunch con to be rendered to the presi- dent at the Scottish Rite consist ory.
 .The governor did not communi- cate with the executive committee yesterday, but in a communica- tion to the Gazette he announced that he had not receded from his intention that he would not sitat a table with Gen. Powell Clayton.
 It was learned yesterday that
 in sending his ultinatum to the executive committee Thursday
 Gov. Davis declared that he
 would not sit at the table with
 Gen. Clayton or with Judge John
 H. Rogers, United States judge
 of the western district of Arkan-
 sas. It is understood that the
 governor receded from his posi-
 tion so far as Judge Rogers is concerned, and the only question
 now at issue is the invitation ex- tended to Gen. Clayton, former ambassador to Mexico under the Roosevelt administration. The protest made by Gov. Davis against the presence of Judge John H. Rogers is said to have been due to a personal dislike. Judge Rogers is said to have ev- pressed his opinion of Gov. Davis in no uncertain manner in the presence of the governor him. self, and this is said to have been the cause of the governors refusing to sit at the same table with him. It being understood, however, that Gov. Davis has waived this question, the only point to which the governor now objects is the presence of Gen. Powell Clayton.
