CoIored Voters Opposed Taft

Washington, July 8.-If results
are what the Rev. DR.. j. Milton
Waldron predicts, Mr.. Taft will
be defeated for President, for
this negro preacher and politician
for the pending campaign says
the National Negro American
Political League, of which he is
president, will do its utmost to
beau the Republican candidate.
DR.. Waldron has telegraphed
Mr.. Bryan that from reports re-
ceived from all portions Of the
country he can count upon 81
per cent. Of the negro vote in
November. Mr.. Bryan is con-
graduated by league on being the
nominee of representatives of the
American people and not of the
'hirelings of a boss
A number Of the leading negro
bishops and preachers are MEM
bers of the league and it is
claimed that the organization
now has membership of fully
700. 900. The pastors of some of

Washington are officers Of the

President Gompers, Of the
American Federation of Labor,
denies that he sent a dispatch to
w. R. Hearst, of yellow journal
fame, urging the latter to use his
influence for the prevention of
the nomination of Labor candi-
date for President and to urge the
League to give its support to
Bryan, because the Denver Con-
vention adopted in it's platform

Hearst says he received the dis
patch and straightway answered
it in his papers. 1t will not be
forgotten in this connection that
William Randolph also claimed
that he had been elected Mayor

The following statement was
made by William ]. Bryan July
10 when, at 4::34 a. M, he re-
ceived the announcement Of his
nomination as the candidate OF
the democratic party for presi-
dent:
''The presidency is the highest
position in the world and no one
occupying it can afford to have
his views on public questions
biased by personal ambition.
Recognizing his responsibility to
God and his obligation to his
countrymen, he should enter
upon the discharge of his duties
with singleness of purpose. Be-
lieving that one can best do this
when he is not planning for a
second term, | announce now,

that if elected | shall not be a

A Good Show.

Haag's Shows, which exhibited here
Saturday, was, in our opinion, the best
that we have ever seen in Jackson,
The performances were first-class and
the animals were in good condition.
The clowns and the other actors con-
nected with this show are not excelled
by any with the larger circuses. Every
feature .of the.l show was carried out
just as advertised. The attaches of
the show ares courteous and gentle
manly set of showmen, who made many
friends among our people during their
stay here. There was large crowd
present and good order prevailed. There

Probably the most agreeably sur

DISTRICT COLLEGE
RECEIVES PRAISE
Beneficial Influence of In
StitutiOnS Proved.

Many compliments have been re-
ceived by the Third District Agricul-
tural College over its splendid open
ing and bright prospects for the ses-
sion. The schools enrolment sur
passes that of any other of the schools
which have opened and it is be-
lieved that few, if any, will be able
to make as good a showing when all
of the eleven have been gotten under
way.
In a recent issue Of the Savannah
Morning News has the following to
say of the Americus institution:
IF anything was needed to show
the favor in which the district agri-
cultural colleges are held by the
people of Georgia, and the prosperity
that will be theirs as soon as they
have got into working order, the evil
dences would be afforded in the re-
ports that come to us from Americus.
The Third district college has hardly
more than opened it's doors, yet the
enrolment of pupils is beyond the
capacity of the establishment. That
means that boys of the district who
desire to secure practical agricultural
educatiOns must actually be turned
away because there is no room for
them. Every country in the district
is represented in, the student body. It
the capacity Of the school could be
doubled we have no doubt that all
of the room would be quickly taken
These district schools are going to
have a tremendous and beneficial in
fluence upon the development of the
agricultural resources of the state
Each of the eleven schools viii doubt
less start off with every pupil that
it can take in"
