colored tenant working under Mr..
Gray Stinson reported to him few days
since that boil weevils were destroying his
Irish potato vines and that he thought the
matter should be made public through the
columns of the Banner so others would be
on their guard. We don't doubt his story,
but We think he has given an old bug a
new name.
The elections held at Bossier City, Ivan
and Tyler last Friday resulted in the vot-
ing OF special tax for ten years for
school purposes in all the respective dis
trcts, except that in which Ivan is located.
It is our belief that the taxpayers of the
Ivan community do not thoroughly under
stand the proposition. If they had, no
doubt the tax would have been voted.
At Fulton, Ark, yestesday Red River
had reached height of 1871 feet, i of a

2 rise of 1.3 feet was recorded, making the
stage of the river there 18 feet. The flood
stage is 20 feet. Yesterdays weather re-
port said: Conditions still indicate a
further rise at Fultun for about four days,
and the rise will probably continue at
Shreveport during the next nine days."

WHERE DO WE STAND?

It is about time for the citizens
of this city to have a watchful eve
of their surroundings. There is
a disposition on the part of some
one to crowd out the real citizen
for interlopers. The question which
rs uppermost in the mind of The
Bee is, Where do the citizens
stand?
The interlOper is grasping every
thing in sight. At his own home
he is a nonentity. The citizen seems
TO take up the interloper who has
no standing at his own home and
push him into power and place him
in positions of honor and trust, to
their own detriment.
The time has come for home rule
10 assert itself. The time has come
for the real citizen to act.
Then, again, If you place the old
citizen in power he will reach out
and extend a helping hand to the
interloper, to his own detriment.
The question is again asked,

THE BAPTIST VONVEN-
TION.

The NatiGnal Baptist Conven-
ton convened in this city last week
and ended Monday. There were
some manly men in that body who
reflected credit upon the colored
race. There were others who be-
longed too that class known as
trimmers and apologists, who are
impediments to the colored race.
The resolutions that were unan-
imously reported from the commit
tee ON resolutions were manly and
should have been adopted.
When the president of the con-
vention threatened to resign, a
number of the delegates weakened
which forced a compromised reso-
luton. 1t was not because the SEN
timent of the convention and the
entire audience were with the pres
ent administration, but because the
delegates were influenced by the
presidents bluff. He should have
been given an opportunity 70 have
resigned. The manhood of the
cOlored Americans should not have
been crushed out by any such
threats. The president would not
have resigned had the report of the
tommittee been adopted. The COM
promised resolutions were adopted
it is true, but the sentiment of the
people is not changed.
1t was a sentimental trick of the
trimmers who have been promised
official recognition by someone.
The Bee is informed that the
trimmers have been promised of
fees. The people will have seen
whether this compromised resolu
ton was offered in good faith or
whether there is a consideration be-
hind it.

sociation wants is a strong head:
a man who has the love of the race.

RING.
rom the Cleveland Leader.

! From the Cleveland Leader
The most significant feature Of the
remarkable success often achieved m
the ring by Negro fighters IS the part
their brains play in their victories They
upset the theories Of those who have
argued that the African race was ex-
cesssively subject to excitement the
kind of frenzy which is often called
losing ones head
It has been held that colored soldiers
could never be quite so efficient as their
fighting spirit and good physique should
make them, because Of hteir mental ex-
make them, because Of their mental ex-
prevailing estimates of the Negro's lack
of fitness for many positions of power
and responsibility.
Colored pugilisrs do not seem to be
at al under the spell of any such mental
tfsit. They are likely to be exceptionally
cool and clear-headed. That is the way
with Cans, the champion lightweight,
who has again demonstrated that he is
JIe best man Of his size in the ring to-
day. He IS one of the coolest and
,hrewdest Of prize-fghters. He is as
remarkable 5or generalship in the ring
IS for his quicknsss and his strength.
Peter Jackson, the big Negro, who
vas born in Jamaica, but came into such
as a boxer in Australia. was
+ the same type. He was a big, pow
rful man. extremely supple and quick.
lis physique was exceedingly fine. He
light have won many victories in the
ng ever if he had been less cool. less
inning less a tactician. But in his
ST DAYS he was quite as remarkable
4 his shrewd, cool generalship as for
: strength and his skill with his hands.
