81 many qpes ions are being asked
az 10 the manner OF the hnal closing
of the contest that the West Virgin
ion desires to thorong:l explain the
matter at this time. The issue Of the
West yirgtnEan Of July 9 win contain
the standing OF the candidates at eight
O'Clock Saturday evening. July 2. No
further statement of the standing Of
any candidate will be given until the
Judges announce their decision. That
everything may be open and above
board at the close. the West virginian
would request that the contestants on
Monday, July 9, place their subscrip-
ton books, votes and certificates, also
money for all unpaid subscriptions in
sealed packages and present these
packages to representatives of the
West Virginians at the final voting
place, which will be announced later,
these not to be opened until the con-
test closes at nine o'clock and in the
presence OF the judges. who will make
the final canvass and award the
trophies. This gives all an equal
chance and we think will meet the
approval of all.
This should enable the judges to
count the vote very quickly and de-

Death List Is Given Too SMALL
The same gentleman said he was
positive that the death estimates sent
out are a mere bagatelle and that the
actual loss of life will never be known
with anything like accuracy. Person
ally he firmly believed the loss of life
would range up in the thousands and
he would not be surprised If he reach
ed 10000, as first estimated. Dead
were lying about everywhere even
when he left and he named II hotel
where he claimed to know that ESQ
lives were lost, and this was but one of
many instances where scores of lives
were crushed out in an instant.
Sufferers Being Well Cared For.
The sufferers were being well cared
for in San Francisco n other cities,
the relief coming so quickly that nearly
all were supplied with the immediate
necessities of life. But the relief work
ers were greatly handicapped in caring
for the sick and disabled on account OF
the lack of facilities.
on the way from the coast, the gen
tleman stated, the refugees were being
cared for as well as can be expected
and they felt grateful to the people for
the kindly interest taken in them.
An old Grand Army veteran who was
also co~nversing with some of his com

Fairbanks to Negroes.

Columbus. o., Special.-Vice-Pres-
ident Charles W. Fairbanks and
Booker T. Washington, the colored
leader and president of Tuskegee In
stitute, addressed the Ohio State
Colored Industrial and Educational
Exposition at Grove City, suburb.
Regarding the race question, Mr..
Fairbanks said to a reporter.
1.-THE settlement of the so-called
race question, or race problem, rests
with the colored people themselves.
I believe these people, who make up
ten per cent. Of our population, have
improved wonderfully, and they are
taking advantage of the opportuni-
ties placed at their disposal.'
In addressing the Ohio State Col
ored Industrial and Educational Ex-
position Mr.. Fairbanks congratulated
the colored people upon the success
full Inauguration Of the exposition,
saying that their success was not
surprising to him, as he knew some
thing of the tenacity Of their pur-
pose. The Importance Of the work
in which they were engaged could be
better appreciated when the fact was
recalled that the black race now con-
stitutes more than ten per cent. of
the population of the United States.
The exposition, he said, is a hope
full sign, not only because it illustrates
what the negro has been able to ac-
complish in the industrial arts in a
comparatively few years, but it shows
that he appreciates the value Of CO.
operation. The exposition is an ad-
mirable object-lesson, full Of encour-
agement and inspiration to the col
ored people. To advance education
and industry is to encourage two of
the mlghtiest factors in the upbuild-
Ing of any race. To prosper to the
utmost and make the greatest advance
III life, the colored people must teach
the virtue Of sobriety, honesty, fru-
gality. industry and fair play, Their
advance had been accomplished
against tremendous obstacles, one OF
their greatest difficulties being preju-
dice.
A broad opportunity, he said. lies
before the colored race. What it will
become will depend upon what ii
does. In the final analysis, people
advance only by virtue of their own
efforts. The future of the colored
race was in its own hands.
