Which is the
 Richest,

John D. Rockefeller or the city of Waterbury? We'll, we think John is, but our city is more generous. For instance, our city will present to the railroad company "Cinder park at a cost of about $299,OO or more, and she must borrow the money to pay for it. Of course the city will own it, but it's for the bene- fit of the railroad. We'll, we see by the newspapers that generous John found out that the people who owned the house he lived in when he was a boy owe mortgage of $500 on it, so generous John" gave them one dollar to help them pay it. We'll, John didn't have to borrow the long green he had it of his own, but his generosity must have been overcome by his heart; but the city officials hearts must have been overcome by their generosity. Speaking of gener- osity reminds us of a generous gift we have this week, and while they last each purchaser of a pound of Baking Powder, 45 cents per pound, can have one-half dozen fruit jars with it. There's generosity for you, if you act quick and call at

THE FAIR.

The Tennessee Colored Fair Associ-
alton is holding its first annual fair
at Greenwood Park this week. This
is the first effort of the colored peo-
pie of this county, so far as we know,
to hold a fair, and it is a matter of
congratulation that they have sue
ceeded.
All efforts to present to the world
the construction work of the Negro
are to be commended. AS a race we
have suffered in the estimation Of the
world because of the good things-ouT
advancement in agriculture, in bust
ness, and all other forms of develop
ment, have not been properly placed
before the public. The Negro crimi
nal is known far and near, but the sue
cessful farmer or breeder of fine
stock is not known outside of the i'm
mediate neighborhood of his home
So the Fair Association is to be
commended for making it possible fol
the Negro farmer, business man ant
artisan to properly place the results o.
their work before the public.
The fair is an educator of The
general public as to what the Ne
groes of this section are doing. The
fair we hope will prove a financial sue
cess and will be a permanent insti
tuition.

her about 7 o'clock, where the road
ran into a ravine. After parting, the
visiting friends went homeward
through the ravine, but had not gone
far when a Negro came through the
woods (probably a near cut to his
work. to the road a little way behind
the white woman. Perhaps the sense
of loneliness enhanced by the locality
and the approach of the Negro UNI
nerved this lonely girl, and a scream
rang out from sheer fright, without
being embraced" as the press des-
patches have it. A hurried retreat
was beaten by the Negro, but he was
soon overtaken by a mob, and when
identified by the young woman was
hanged to a nearby tree.
This was a human life snuffed out!

without saying. But the methods Npur

We have been repeatedly told, and
we really believe it, that the better

pose the mob, nor approve of it in
any case. Then one is left to con
clude that mobs are composed Of a diff

tiful GU mass endued with such d
high sense of justice and equity, that
the swiftest mode and severest method
are insufficient to- requite outraged

Unbridled LawIessness.
OIdSS IJII, WOHuI J
New York, Sept. II, 1903.

"Be not deceived; God is not
Knocked: for whatsoever a man SOW
eth. that shall he also reap" This
announcement or r%etribution is no
less applicable to nations and COM
munities than to individuals. It's
visitation is inevitable, being the re-
sultant effect of contributory causes.
A few days ago a Negro was lynched
in the vicinity of Murfreesboro, and
The Nashville American, recording
the event. said, among other things,
that "the mob went about it's work
orderly! not a shot was fired" etc,
In the name of all that is high and
holy, how can any mob, whose very
existence is in defiance Of law and
whose every move is riot, ruin and
disorder, go about anything orderly?
We confess to being pretty good at
puzzles and connundrums, but this
paradox has us nonplussed. Perhaps
the American can answer,
The story told briefly is this: A
young woman (white) goes to spend
the evening and night with a neigh
Dor. some few miles out on the Nash
Vile and Murfreesboro pike. The
night passed, the neighbor returned
with her friend a mile or so, leaving

makes Tor a better racial understand
Ing. The fuCure OF both races depends
largely upon some working agree
mont between the whites and blacks
OF the South.
The white people of the South
through forty years and upward have
known the black people POLITICALLY,
chiefly as a big stick in the hands oil
theT oppressors. Throughout the
whole dread period OF Reconstruction
the Negroes were used as the instru-
ments OF the spoilers, who masquerade
ing as patriots, sought by turning So
ciery up-side-down to rob the cradle
ana the grave, and TO take out a per-
petual post-obit upon the public credit.
III should be no wonder ii the South
resented this bitterly n when the
Southern white people recovered their
power that they should DO what they
have done 10 etace It's monuments
and to make it hereafter impossible.
AS matters stand W. are having
measurable peace. But, suppose II
should happen that the South, which
is still deeply interested in the defeat
OF tnat party which holds ver it in
terrorem the threat of Negro domino
ton and Force bills to reduce repre-
%Sentation, should find that it owes the
winning OF a Presidential battle to
the independence and intelligence Of
the more educated and enlightened
black people of the North; would not
this make for still happier conditions?
Would it not lay the foundation at
least for a truce and parley, looking
toward some adjustment OF operating
forces and influences more solid and
substantial than those tentative on
ditiOns which now exist? Assuredly
the COurier-Journa thinks SO. 1t
thinks so not as a Democrat, but as
a friend of the black people.
The Democratic party, as a party,
asks nothing, offers nothing. The Re
publican party demands the Negroes
vote at the price of his freedom, and
then at the North fails either to employ
him or protect him. The Courier
Journal, cutting loose from both par
ties on this issue, would have him
assert himself for once in his life if
ne never uO6S IL dSdlu-IO Idh6 d
trial trip OF the good ship Indepen-
dence-stying to the Republican bosses
1ourishing the slave drivers whip,
you can not drive us; you cannot
cheat, or buy us. We are men, not
chattels."
In this attitude the black people of
the North will show the dignity of
their manhood and will, whilst ex-
plotting their own character and in
telligence, help sensibly, and surely
help, their poor, uneducated black
brethren of the South.

completing the highest grade in one
of the best schools at his home, he was
appointed a Government pupil teacher
by Hon. w. H. Watkins, Inspector of
Schools. While employed in that ca
pacity Mr.. Phipps took the three an
nual examinations necessary to n
ter the Mico College, preparatory to
entering the teachers profession. The
result of his last examination was the
incident which made him famous with
his people. At that time he won a
scholarship in a competition with pu-
pill teachers of all the Islands consti-
tuting the "Leeward Islands Presi-
dency." By virtue of his scholarship,
young Phipps entered the Mico College
at Antigua (Which was afterwards
removed to Jamaica) and finished his
course in two years, making the high
est average all through. His work in
college being so marked he was APP
pointed to one Of the largest public
schools, and a sub-Inspector OF Agri-
culture in the Island of Montserrat, at
which post he won for himself an ex-
cellent reputation in the island.
Feeling that his mission here was
not to teach but to heal, DR.. Phipps
set out for Nashville, Tenn, where he
entered Meharry Medical College of
Walden University in the Fall of 1904.
His career here was no less distin-
guished. having in his first year made
1.-the highest average that had ever been
made in the history of the school.
While a junior student he won the first
prize for the best composition in
Pediatrics. During his four years
course, he not only made the highest
average in his class, but won the re-
spect of his classmates to such a de-
gree that he was made secretary of the
Senior Glass by reclamation. The
members of the faculty also saw much
in DR.. Phipps, and evidenced their es-
TEEN by electing him a member of the
Executive Committee of the Alumni
Association of the Medical Depart
ment. He took the examinations OF
the following states and acquitted
himself admirably: Missouri, general
average, 95 per cent; Arkansas, SO pei
cent; Federal Board of Hot Springs
100 per cent.
A few weeks ago DR.. Phipps was wei
coined into the medical fraternity al
Hot Springs, Ark. From his office al
324 Malvern avenue, he sends me the
following message: my practice Is
now fairly we'll established and grow

A SORE SPOT.

The Hon. Leslie M. Shaw. a former
member of the Roosevelt Cabinet, in
opening the republican campaign at
Louisville, had the following to say
on the Brownsville case: ct firmly be-
lieve that if the Browns vile troops,
who have suddenly become objects
of solicitude to the dem ocratic lead
ers, had been white men, they would
have been discharged even sooner than
they were. They did not suffer be
cause of their color"
Perhaps Mr.. Shaw is right. His
term of service in Mr.. Roosevelt's
cabinet has made him familiar with
the cratic temperament of the Presi-
dent. Possibly he had in mind that
it was thought Mr.. Roosevelt had
upheld the law against hazing at
West Point until he put lais new Sec
rotary Of War in the Ananias class,
1t is possible and probable that the
color question did not enter into the
dismissal Of the colored troops, but
The Nashville globe. [volume] (Nashville, Tenn.) 1906-193?, 1908-09-18

it is more probable that if the troop
ers had been white and no more evil
dence had been submitted connecting
them with the shooting up of the
town than had been introduced against
the colored troopers, they would have
been r%einstated long ago. If the
troopers had been white and had as
many votes supporting the republican
party as the Negro, the republican
majority of nearly two to n in the
Senate would not have permitted the
innocent to suffer for the crimes of
the guilty.
If Mr.. Shaw and the republicans are
DESTROYS of controlling the Negro
vote as in the past, they would do
well not to defend Mr.. Roosevelt's un-
American act in the Brownsville affair.
Brownsville is a sore spot with the
Negro voter, and republican speakers
should do we'll to recognize the fact,
while addressing themselves to the
voters.

The Negro is not the only race that
is forced to face injustice on account
of racial prejudice. Recently at a
public celebration, a Frenchman shot
Col. Alfred Dreyfus, a Jew, the perse-
cution of whom by French army Of
fcers several years ago, excited the
sympathy of the world. The man
who did the shooting admitted that he
fired the shots, and that Col. Dreyfus
had injured him in no way, yet a
jury of twelve men declared the mis-
creant innocent of the charge. The
prejudice in Paris where the Shooting
occurred against the Jew reminds
one of Mississippi, where an ex-Unitec
States Senator openly proclaims thai
he led a mob.
