He was not only eloquent, but in
many instances he was vehement.
His oratorical flights seemed to
have electrified his hearers, and in
many instances they seemed to
have completely lost their reason
ing faculties.
The audience was nine-tenths col
ored, and as evidence of its loyalty
to the Republican party DR.. Cor
rothers failed to submit to resolu-
Itions to a vote. While this may
be, ,theRepublican managers should
get to work at once. If such meet
ings as the one last Monday even
ing, were held in States there IS
no telling the harm that would be
done. There are hundreds OF
prominent coiored men waiting for
an opportunity to join the political
organization. The name Of Sena-
tor Foraker continues to be a
household word. He is the idol
of the cOlored race, and no matter
what may be said. It is not wise
to underestimate the harm that is
being done by DR.. Sylvester L.
Corrothers. The colored Ameri-
cans seem to be with him in senti-
ment, if nothing more.

A GOOD OPPORTUNITY.
August 6, 1908.

To the Editor of The Bee:
I have had it impressed upon me
strongly lately that the money in
stitutions, firms and individuals of
the race in few cases have the op-
Portunities and chances to invest
their funds as advantageously and
safely as they are entitled to. So,
after a most careful study and in
vestigation of this subject, I have
decided to resign my position in the
Treasury Department of the United
States, and give all my time and en-
ergies for the purpose of helping
the investors of my race.
l have made arrangement with
Messrs. ]. F. Pierson, Jr. & Com
pany, bankers, of New York, and
members of the New York Stock
Exchange, for this purpose. They
have promised to give me all the ad-
vantages and facilities at their dis
posal. They are at all times in the
best possible position to give their
customers the best, gilt-edge invest
ment, such as Government and mu-
nicipal bonds, first mortgage rail
road bonds, and al the best railroad
road and industrial stocks. Their
commission is only I-8 of I percent,
so all my clients will get their in
vestments at the very best ruling
prices, without paying any fancy
commissions. They are also in a
position to invest funds in the best
New York city mortgages, both guar
anteed and others more speculative
They will act as a deposition, repre-
sentatives and fiscal agents and
bankers, etc, allowing ruling rates
of interest on deposits or lending
money Of their clients either on time
or call, receiving the best gilt-edge
stocks and bonds as collateral.
I find all these advantages have
never before been offered the busi-

A RARE CHANCE FOR FDI-
GATED COLORED WOMEN
Charles w. Fillmore

There is great demand, much
greater than is being supplied, thru
out the country for the services Of
colored women who can teach do
mestic science. At the same time
there are many co.ored girls and
women who have finished the public.
or high, schools who are without
employment. The Tuskegee Normal
and Industrial Institute has facilities
for giving special courses in Domes-
tic Science to colored women who
wish to prepare themselves as teach
ers of domestic science. The course
extends from one to two years. Wo-
men who have finished public OF high
school courses are especially urged
TO take this course.

A SLUR RESENTED.

Many of those Negroes who will
travel long distances to attend the
Soon-to-be-held annual meeting al
Baltimore, Nd, of the National
Negro Business Men'sLeague will
next winter need the money they
will spend for transportation, etc,
and for social enjoyment while in
that city.-CleveIand Gazette.
Every member of the National
Negro Business Men'sLeague will
will resent this fling from Harry
Smith. When he penned the above
lines for his paper, the Cleveland
Gazette, it was with malice afore-
thought. He meant it as a knock
at the League. The men who be-
long to and attend the meetings
of the League are men who are
building for the race. They are
earnest, sincere men, and men who
are able to spend the money nee
essarv to take them to some point
where they can annually meet busi-
ness men of their race to discuss,
for mutual and race benefit, busi-
ness affairs. There is no man or
association OF institution, but who
has been assailed, at some time,
by Harry Smith in his paper. He
seems to be sore on the world.
There is nothing that looks bright
to him. He is a professional fault
finder.
Come, come, Cleveland Gazette
and awake to the good things all
about you. Don't think or an in
slant that the thousands of hustling
colored business men are going to
stop for an instant for your sake,
nor that the National Negro Busi-
ness Mems League will call off its
annual meeting because you do not
approve of it. You are not the
only pebble on the beach.

REV. SYLVESTER L. COR
ROTHERS.

It must be admitted that the
crowd that assembled in True Re
formers Hall last Monday evening
must have been a surprise to those
who have been so long identified
with the Republican party. If any
one had said ten or twenty years
ago that colored Americans would
have dared to assemble in a public
hall and endorse Democratic presi-
dental candidates and their party
he would have been called a wizard
or a worshiper of false goods.
There were fully one thousand
colored citizens present last Mon
day night, and a good sprinkle of
white men. The principal speak
ers were DR.. Corrothers, DR.. Wal
dron and Mr.. L. c. Moore, for
merly a member of the Mississippi
Legislature.
The Bee will give the speakers
credit for the enthusiasm that they
caused by their speeches. That of
DR.. Corrothers was full of ginger,
and he was applauded to the echo.

Now, what can Negro Demo

theirs and others, get out Of Mr..
Bryan's speech Of acceptance de-
livered at Lincoln, Nebraska, Wed
nesday? The only soothing thing
so far as human rights are con
cerned, is the declaration that he
will give justice to all. He says
nothing concerning the disfran-
chisement of colored Americans by
his party and neither does he say
that he will enforce the 18th, I4th
and 18th Amendments to the Con,
stitution of the United States. Let

THE NEGRO BUSINESS
LEAGUE SOUTH.

At Columbia. Greenville, Spartan
burg, S. c., Charlotte, Salisbury,
I1ighpoint, Winston-Salem Green's
boro, Durham, Raleigh, Goldsborc,
Newbern, Wilson, Weldon, NC, we
met and addressed the business men
and women in these respective local
ities, and before leaving either or
ganized new Leagues, or did what
we could toward renewing and
Strengthening those already estab-
llshed
As a rule, we found upon inquiry
that our merchants and other bust
ness men were making progress in
the financial and commercial field.
In Durham, N. C., especially they
are doing exceptionally well.
For on the first of this month a
company of our progressive men,
composed of Messrs. R. B. Fitzger-
aid, John Merrick, c. c. Spaulding,
]. E. Shepard and others associated,
started a new bank with All author
lied capital of ten thousand dollars
all paid in; the first day they open
ed, over two thousand dollars were
received on deposit
This bank is in a new building on
street called Parrish, in which
there is also a new drug store with
authorized capital of ten thousand
dollars, a tailoring establishment,
finely equipped barber shop, a nice
cafe, and the largest Negro insur-
ance company in the world - the
Carolina Mutual and Provident Com
pany.
Here in this one block in Durham
these business men have invested
more than one hundred thousand dol
lars, and carry on business that
stretches out over number of the
Southern States.
What these men of the race have
accomplished in Durham I am sat
isfed could be duplicated in more
than one other place we have visited,
could our people of means be per-
sGaded to ELIMINATE their seIhshness
and try to cultivate and foster a
broader pubIic-spirit for the welfare
of each and all.
From all of the places we have
mentioned in this letter a large num-
Der of delegates will attend next
week the annual session of the Ma
tiOnal League

Negroes Revolt
Continued from first page }

The Indictment, in part, is as fol-
lows:
William H. Taft, in his Colds
boro speech and in several other
speeches and communications, ap-
proves of the disfranchisement of the
Negro.
while William H. Taft is not re-
sponsible for the order of President
Roosevelt dismissing theNegro troops
of Brownsville, he has, in numerous
public utterances, both as a public
official and private citizen, approved
and defended the Presidents course
in dismissing from the army, with
out trial and without proof of guilt,
I67 brave black soldiers.
William H. Taft is pledged to
carry out the Roosevelt policies.
The President of the United
States is a dictator, with the power
to cajole, intimidate, and persuade,
by gift of Office, Senators, Repre-
sentatives, and judges 10 do his will
and execute his commands.
Tool of Roosevelt.
William H. Taft does not pos
sess the courage and manhood re-
quired in q President of the United
States. If elected, he will be the
tool of Theodore Roosevelt.
William H. Taft is not Chris
tian. He repudiates most of the BIZ
bic, denies the divinity of JesusChrist
and the Holy Spirit, ard is not a fit
man to administer the laws of the
United States, whose Government is
founded upon the teachings of the
Bible, and would be a reproach and
a menace as President of this coun-
try to the rights of all Christian citi-
zens, be they Protestants or CatLo-
lies"
DR.. Waldron closed his address by
claiming that Senator Joseph Benson
Foraker was being slowly politically
killed by the Republicans for daring
to oppose King Roosevelt and "his
man Friday"
Mr.. ]. T. c. Newsom was next
introduced, and as chairman of the
Committee on Resolutions read a Sc
ries of preambles and resolutions
condemnatory of the Republican
presidential candidates and their
party.
Mr.. w. Calvin Chase, who occu-
pied seat upon the platform - and,
by the way, received an ovation when
he took seat upon the stage -
came down about the time Rev. Cor
rothers was about to request a vote
and upon their passage, and said that
he would like to discuss the resolu-
tons. Cries came from the vast
crowd, Take the platform! Chase !!
Chasel -
Rev. Corrothers at this juncture
called for the benediction, but Mr..
Chase objected, and moved that the
preamble and resolutions be laid up
on the table. Dr. Corrothers refus-
ed to put the motion.
Mr.. Chase cried out, "All those
who favor tabling the preamble and

From the Scientific American.
A Westminster peal Of bells
weighing seven tons is to be hung
in the uppermost gallery Of the great
tower Of the Metropolitan Life In
surance Building, which is now fast
nearing completion in New York
city. The gallery in question is on
the forty-sixth floor. The bells will
be placed between white marble pill
lars, against which the deep bronzeI
of the bells will be visible. Instead
of suspending the bells in the usual
way upright supports will be used.
Automatic clappers viii strike the
quarter hour. Tn largest of the bellsI
will weigh seven thousand pounds,
and will measure seventy inchesI
across its mouth. 1t will be toned toI
B fat and viii be used to strikeE
the hours as we'll as to take part IN
the general choir. The second bell,
an E fiat, will weigh three thousand
pounds; the third, an F natural, viii
weigh two thousand pounds, and the
fourth, a G, will weigh fifteen hun
dred pounds. The bells will be rung
at rather more than twice the height
of any other peal in the world.
