BooKER's ADVICE
70 NEGRO RACE.
Calls Upon Race to Weed Out Grim
inaIs and Thus Prevent Mob
Violence.


inaIs and Thus Prevent Mob
Violence.
After explaining the objects of the
National Negro Business league,
which met in Atlanta on August %,
Booker T. Washington, in his annual
address as president of the league,
said in part:
1--WE believe that while the world
may pity crying, whining race, it
seldom respects it. We believe that
that influence of one great success in
really accomplishing something that
the world respects will go farther in
promoting our interests. Let con-
servative progress be the dominant
note among US in every section of
America.
''Right here in Georgia, we have
abundant evidence that the negro is
learning this lesson at a rapid rate.
1t is safe to say that the negro in
Georgia owns atleast $1,000, 900 worth
of taxable property and that our peo-
pie in other sections of the south
have made almost equal progress.
Within the past year I have inspected
and studied the conditions and pro-
gress of our people in the northern
and western states, and I have no
hesitation in reafirming my opinion
that southern states offer the best
permanent abode for the masses of
our people.
''There is much that the brave, in
telligent, patriotic white man of
American can do for us; there is
much we can do for ourselves. The
executive authorities should see that
every law is enforced regardless of
race or color, that the weak are pro-
tected against injustice from the
strong. We have examples in several
southern states that this is being
done in an encouraging degree.
"On the negroes we have a duty.
Our leaders should see to it that the
criminal negro is got rid of whenever
possible. Making all allowances for
mistakes, injustice and the influence
of racial pride, I have no hesitation
in saying that one of the elements in
our present situation that gives me
most concern is the large number of
crimes that are being committed by
members of our race. The negro is
committing too much crime north
and south. The crime of lynching
everywhere and at all times should be
condemned and those who commit
crimes of any nature should be con-
demned. Our southland today has no
greater enemy to business progress
than lynchers and those who provoke
lynching.
I'VE cannot be too frank or too
strong in discussing the harm that the
committing of crime is doing to our
race. Let us stand up straight and
speak out and act in no uncertain
terms in this direction. Let US do
our part and then let US call on the
whites to do their part.
'Right here in the south there are
more things upon which the races
agree than upon which they disagree.
There is no section of the south where
the negro farmer, mechanic, mer-
chant and banker cannot find en-
couragement, opportunity and pros
perity. In this respect let US not
overlook the fact that many similar
opportunities are at our door,

tack the vital organs, causing catarrk of
the bladder, or the kidneys themselves
break down and waste away cell by cell.
Bladder troubles almost always result
from arrangement of the kidneys and
cure is obtained quickest by proper
treatment of the kidneys. IF you are feel
ing badly you can make no mistake by
taking DR.. Kilmer's Swamp-Root, the
great kidney, liver and bladder remedy.
1t corrects inability to hold urine and
scalding pain in passing it, and over
comes that unpleasant necessity of being
compelled to 60 often through the day,
and to get up many times during the
night. The mild and the extraordinary
effect of Swamp-Root is soon realized.
It stands the highest for its wonderful
cures of the most distressing cases.
Swamp Root is pleasant to take and is
sold by all druggists in ffty-cent and
.sne- dollar size bottles. You may have a
sample bottle of this wonderful new dis
covery and book that tells all about it.,
both sent free by mail. Address, Dr.. Kill
Eer & Co., Binghamton, n. Y. When
writing mention reading this generous
offer in this paper. Don't make any
mistake, but remember the name, Swamp
Root, DR.. Kilmer's Swamp Root, ard the

ASKS $4,000 DAMAGE


The case of Eliza DuCate VS.. Town
of Brighton was called in Circuit
Court Tuesday This is:-the thir d
personal injury case tried at this term
of court, and is brought by the plant
if for injuries received on defective
highway running east from the village
of Unity. in Marathon County.
It seems from the complaint that the
plaintiff and her daughter were return
ing late in the afternoon to their home
from Unity when they reached a strip
of road which had been undergoing
repairs, and which it is claimed was
not properly smoothed down to permit
of safe passage. The horse was
frightened from the result of the tip
over that occurred and in the mix-rp
that ensued the plaintiff was injured.
She is asking for damages to the ex-
tent of $1,000 through her attorneys
Messrs Humphrey and Parks.
The defendant town of Brighton, of
Marathon county, denies the salient
allegations, and are represented by
Attorneys r. J. Mcbride and George

FIRST CAMPAIGN GUN
Republicans Start the County
Campaign bv Hearty Rally in
Grand Rapids.

The Republican meeting held in the
town hall in the town of Grand Rapids
Monday evening was an enthusiastic
meeting in spite of the fact that the
weather was unfavorable. The meet
ing was presided over by F. J. Herself
leb, chairman of the Republican Com
mittee in that township.
Atty. r. E. Andrews, the candidate
for District Attorney was the first
speaker introduced and during the
course of his remarks he paid an ex-
cellent tribute to the leadership of
Senator Robt. NJ. LaFollette. He
was followed by G. r. Goldsworthy,
candidate for the Assembly who ex-
planned the workings of the new Rail-
road Commission and the safety in
which the citizen could enter just COM

to promptly and efficiently. Geo. W.

the audience into a jolly mood by
the telling of a timely story.

ERRONEOUS IMPRESSION

An erroneous impression regarding
the campaign expenses for the prima'
ries has gone abroad and in nearly
every county in the state, as well as
with the Secretary of State at Madi.
son, men who were candidates for
party nominations, have filed their
expense account. 1t was thought b
many that the law required the filing
of these expense accounts within thirty
days after the primaries. The law
however, does not require this until
thirty days after the general election.
This clause requires the primary con-
testants to file such expense list, as
well as the regular nominees.
One of the contestants in the prima-
ries in this county has already filed,
and as the law does not require the
county officials to refuse to accept
such tender, the expense account is
now a matter of record.
