j. McHENRY JONES.

EX-Grand Master J. McHenry Jones
is in Seattle, Wash, where he Is bill
ed to address the international meet
ing Of the Epworth League. 1t goes
without saying that he will fill the
bill admirably. After leaving Seat
tie he will visit San Francisco, Los
Angeles, and ~Pasedepa, where he will
remain week. He Will return home
by the way Of Salt Lake City, Denver
and st. Louis, making a short stop at
each place. Lodges in the cities he
visits will doubtless avail themselves
of the opportunity to hear him speak.
The above is from the Odd Fellows
Journal Of July l. The attention of
the local lodges is called to the same
that action may be taken suitably to
entertain 80 distinguished an Odd
Fellow.
j. McHenry Jones is president of
the West Virginia Colored Institute
situate near Charleston in that state,
and now fourteen years old. He has
the M. A. degree, is learned and elo-
quent, and ranks among the best of
the orators Of the. race. No doubt an
opportunity will be given to the gen
eral public to hear him.
State Industrial school, at Institute,
w. Va, is one Of the most distin-
guished Afro-American educators
who have visited the city for the past
week. He is on the Epworth League
programme and Is a brilliant talker
Mr.. Jones discusses the situation in
the south, SO far as black and white
folks are concerned, with much intel
ltgence and understanding. While to
him, the picture at present seems
rather dark, yet he takes a cheerful
view Of the whole. and says it Is I'd
to the black man to work out his own
salvation. Like most men who have
given the situation thought, he is of
opinion that the Negro should for the
time being drop out Of politics. He
also thinks that the Negro would do
great deal better if he would scat
ter from the south and find homes in
every nook and corner Of the Western
hemisphere. In his opinion there is
no hope of building up black repub-
tic IN the United States.~Seattle Re-
