Lowerv- Bradford.

In the presence of a large number
of friends Mr.. Edward Lowery, of
Huntsville, Ala, and Mrs. Josie E.
Bradford, of this city, were united
in marriage on Wednesday evening,
April 20, at 8 o'clock. The ceremony
took place at the residence of the
bride, 1872 Fourteenth avenue, North,
Rev. w. S. Ellington, A. B., officiating
Only the most intimate friends were
invited, and still the home was
we'll crowded, as both contracting par
ties are we'll known IN the city. The
bride was born and reared in
and about Nashville, while the
groom up to a few years ago was
in business in this city, moving from
here to Huntsville, Ala. Mesdames
N. J. Anderson and c. V. Roman were
matrons of honor The wedding
march was played by Mrs. w. S,
White. The reception was held from
$50 to 1920 y. m. A large number
of gifts, some of them coming from
many parts of the country, was re-
ceived. The bride and groom were
entertained by Mrs. N. J. Anderson,
who served a wedding breakfast for
the bridal party on Thursday morn
ing. They left the city at $3.50 Thurs
day afternoon for Huntsville, where
they will reside in the future.

Echoes of the Helm Episode.


To The Nashville Globe:
Tom Helm, the pistol toting repre-
sentative from Alabama, who figured
recently in a shooting scIape at
Washington, D. c., in which he wound
ed two men, has succeeded, it is said,
in squaring matters with McCreary,
the New York man, who was an inno-
cent victim Of his (Heflin's) wild
and reckless shooting. Helm has
agreed to make good, it is said, all of
McCreary's expenses while in the hos
pital and also to further reimburse
him for loss Of time. 1t will be re-
membered that Hehin was trying to
eject a colored man from street car,
bringing into play his ready hip peck
ct artillery, when McCreary was shot
The affair created quite a sensation
at the time, owing to the fact the prin
cipal of this street brawl was nation
al representative. He occupied a high
position, but position has nothing to
do with a man, if he does not possess
the requisite qualities commensurate
with it. The man that could step down
from the lofty position of a national
councillor and legislator to that of a
common scrapper, assuming and exc
cutting the duties of policeman is
totally unfit in every sense for that
position. A man like Hefiin seeking
notoIiety is not expected to let any
chance slip him, and most especially
is he expected to magnify and take adj
vantage of anything that he may lay
at the door of a Negro, which will help
him to reach his coveted niche, if but
for a brief moment, in the public eye
The Negro has been for long, long
time the stepping stone by which a
certain class of men has come into
public notice Such men have resort
ed to all sorts of trickery at the ex-
pense Of the Negro to effect their de-
sired ends. They have, inveighed
against the Negro in the most strenu-
Gus manner, even though they knew
their rantings were rank misrepresen-
tations
Hehin had failed with his "jim-
crow" street car measure, and he was
bitter. Ranking deep in his heart
was the consciousness of the contempt
that must have been his by those who
had not only given his little "jim-
crow measure a black eye, but had
done for it what all men are hidden to
do to the serpent in the egg, they
killed it in its little shell, and this so
intlamed this man, Helm as to send
him forth on the war-path armed to
the death and ready to shoot any Ne
gro who even glanced in his direction
He was not long in finding target for
his gun, but being over anxious to
get his mana Negro man whose life
didn't amount to much in comparison
to the notoriety it would bring him
he winged a white man, too, who
CHANGED to be passing with his wife
This was an act that was not down in
Helms intended tragedy, and now he
is called upon to pay the fiddler of this
extra part.

Judging from the uninstructed and

the South, the federal office-holders
have not been able to deliver the goods

ago. 1t begins to appear that after all,
Southern ofice-holders will not dictate

Foraker's speech in the defense Of
the discharged soldiers and in support
of his bill to reinstate them seems to
be hard to answer. Senator Borah
made speech in reply, Senator Warn
err made one attempt to answer it and
is due to get off another, while our
own James B. Frazier, of Tennessee,
has decided, since Mr.. Foraker deliv-
cred his powerful arraignment OF
those who oppose the soldiers, that he
will not speak on the subject at all as
had been previously announced. Fra
zier, at least, was wise. He probably
remembered that fools rush in where
angels fear to tread" and kept out Of
the discussion.

Those Southern newspapers that
claim, with all the simulated pious-
ness of saints, that the Negro has
been voting against his best friend,
the Southern white man. for forty
years, seem to forget that for over
forty years they and their kind have
been voting against the Negro, and
have done all in their power to keep
him from voting for his best friend"
In their pious mood they seem to for
get that their panacea for all the ills
of the South-economic moral and fl
nancial--is "a white mans party" In
one breath they accuse us of trying
to force ourselves where we are not
wanted and in the next, blame us for
not forcing ourselves where they state
explicitly we are not desired. For per-
sistent inconsistency some of our
best friends" take the first prize.

The hog raisers OF Kansas station
made a test 10 show what kind OF a
hog grows the best meat. The weights
Of hams In the test were as follows:
Berkshire hams, 2315 pounds; Du-
roc-Jersey, 2415 pounds; Poland
Chinas, 2555 pounds. These hogs in
size were as near the same weight as
possible to get them. The shoulders
Of the Berkshires weighed Ply
pounds; Duroc-Jerseys. 1917 pounds
and Poland-Chinas. 1917 pounds. The
Berkshlres have larger shoulders than
the other breeds.
The butcher who saw the hogs
slaughtered thought the DurOc-Jersey
had the most fat on the back; the PO-
land-China next, then the Berkshire.
The Berkshire ham showed more lean
and less fat than the POland-China.
The butchers considered the breed Of
hogs that had the most fat the most
profitable hog both for the farmer and
the butcher.
