Johnson, Mrs. VIM. Young and Miss
Maggie Stubs are here to see that
you will not be sighted.
Who would miss such a grand treat
as this when you can come and get
what you want to eat, drink and wear,
and enjoy yourselves and feel that the
money you have spent is for noble
cause.
Beautiful Roger Williams Univer-
sity is no more The buildings were
destroyed by fire. The insurance
money was collected and carried to
New York or somewhere else, and the
campus has been cut up into residence
lots and is being sold under an agree
ment that no Negro will be allowed to
live there except as a servant. This
arrangement was made by society
posing as agency to do Christian mis-
sionary work. The Negroes have be-
come disguised with such hypocrisy
and have determined to erect Roger
Williams themselves and conduct the
same as they see fit. Great progress
has been made and the Alumni are
giving this entertainment feeling that
the people will be glad to assist them
in any way possible.

4 PRINCELY GIFT.

The gift by Miss Anna T. Jeanes, of
Philadelphia, of $1,000,000, for the es-
Enlistment Of a trust fund the inter
est of which is to be used for the bet
terment of the school facilities for
Negroes in the rural districts of the
South, is destined to do great good
for class of our race that mentally
stand in great need of help. 1t should
he welcomed by all citizens of the
South no matter what their color be-
cause in lettering the schools for our
race the whole community will profit
thereby. The trustees, DR.. Washing
ton, of Tuskegee, and DR.. Frizzell, of
Hampton, are practical educators, well
informed as to the needs of the rural
schools and their selection to admin
lister the trust guarantees that it will
be applied for the best interest of
those for whom it was given. The in
terest from the fund, which will
amount to about $4,000 a year, is a
mere drop in the bucket when it is
taken into consideration that the fund
is given for the whole of the South.
But it will be a great help and doubt
less others, following the lead Of this
pious woman, will add to the sum.

SIGNIFICANT.

1t is highly significant of the indus
trial status of the country and the
real value of the Negro as a laborer
that while the states of the South are
organizing immigration bureaus and
appointing immigration agents to go
to the old world and persuade and
substitute foreigners To immigrate to
this section of the country, West Vir-
ginia is trying to add to its Negro
population by securing emigrants
from the South. The coal fields of
that state need men to develop them
and those Negroes who have gone
there are proving to be such satisfac-
tory laborers that the employers are
anxious for others to come.
The advantages Of the state over
those further South are being pointed
out by those interested. Among these
they mention the following: Though
the state has Negro population Of less
than $4,000, three schools are support
ed directly by appropriations from the
state; the public schools for both
races have the same curriculum, run
for the same period and the teachers
receive the same amount of pay; no
"jim crow" cars, no disfranchisement;
wages range from 81 to S. per day and
property for homes is cheap; pay day
every two weeks and the men are paid
in cash, not being compelled to spend
their money at the Company's store;
lodge halls and churches are fur
nished by the mining companies; men
not wanted as strike breakers but for
permanent employment and the offer
is made to furnish transportation
from any portion Of the country.
Some of the advantages, and we
haven't named them all, may be the
eXaggerations of the labor agent, "
but be that as it may, the significance
of the fact that other sections of the
country are asking for the labor of
that happy-go-luck fellow who so often
works at almost starvation wages, and
that they want him as a permanent
citizen, can not be minimized. Some
day, we fear, the South will awake to
the fact that while chasing the chin
era of immigration and low wages and
going into spasms over the fear of
social equality, it has allowed the best
labor in the world to drift from its
confines.

entertainment under the auspices of

Miss Birdie King and Mrs. R. II.
Miles to wait on you.

around to the candy booth and filled
their pockets with some of the choic-
est candies there are on the market
Mrs. ]. w. Devices, Mrs. w. A. Reed
and Mrs. Martha Redmon are here to
wait on every one, to see that you get

Human life is regarded so cheaply
IN this city that a man is said to have
remarked to his wife, when in a fit of
passion recently: 'I'll kill you and
pay for you. 1t only costs SIS to kill
a Negro" Judging by Nashville's long
list Of homicides and the tlimsy ex-
cuses upon which the murderers are
turned loose, it costs even less than
fifteen dollars Almost every week
there is a murder, but conviction with
the proper penalty in the most fla
grant cases seldom follows. Nash
vile should have few legal hangings
then these bad men would not be so
ready to give vent to their feelings.

Hayti gave the officials Of the
jamestown Exposition a scare when it
was reported that a short, fat and very
black representative from that country
would attend the opening ceremonies
Of the show as a Vice Admiral. Had
such been the case the Haytian would
have outranked all the naval repre-
sentatives from every country repre-
scented except Japan, and would have
taken precedence at all social func-
lions. Happily for the distressed
whites, Hayti will be represented by
two members Of it's army.

Mr.. j. c. NAPIER IN NEW YORK,

Mhs y, u NAPIER TN NEW IOnN'
Mr. ]. G. Napier left the city for
New York, last Monday night, where
he will remain the entire week. Mr..
Napier went to New York, 1t Is
learned to be present at the special
call meeting Of the executive commit
tee of the Negro Business League,
which was called by President Booker
T. Washington. They will consider
some very important matters while
there. One which will come in for a
great deal of discussion will be the
place of meeting for the next Negro
Business League, While it was decided
last year in, Atlanta, to hold the meet
ing in the West, there appears to have
arisen a sharp competition as to
whether it will go to Little Rock,
Ark, or Topeka, Kans. At any rate,
indications point across the Missis-
sippi to some of the thriving cities of
the West The city that furnishes
the greatest inducements will in all
reliability capture the meeting. 1t
has been the policy of the Negro Bust
ness League to meet wherever they
can do the most good.
Another matter to be considered
will be some method Of reviVing To-
cal business interests and leagues,
and state organizations, as only few
states have maintained the independ-
ent organization Mississippi still
leads, with Arkansas a close second
for state organizations. Tennessee
has no state organization, and the
city league appears to have died COM
pletely.

THE "BEST CITIZEN" VINDI-
GATED.

We have been dreaming that the
best citizens" of the South who con-
stitute the mobs that take without
any semblance of law the lives of men
accused of crimes, we're really the
tough, low-down class, locally known
as "po' white trash" We have had a
rude awakening and now accept the
newspaper correspondents designation
of lynchers as the best citizens" of
the place. The best citizens have
proved their rights to be so designated.
In Louisiana a gang of lawless men
hanged a man last week who had
been accused of an attempted assault.
This was not strange. But at the re-
quest of the man who was soon to be
hurled into eternity, it is said, the
leader of the mob led in prayer. This
was strange! Because it stamps the
man as one of the "best Christian citi-
zens" Of the place. What a farce is
the religion of the white man! Prayer
followed by murderI If this be the
true religion of the Lord Jesus Christ,
then the Negro has another kind.
