COMMUNICATION.
TlmeIy A~dmOnItlon.

To the Negro boys and girls of the
twentieth century, is left the making
of the race. You have the advantages
of many institutions of learning,
while our foreparents had not such
places, therefore it is left to you to
make this race the greatest race on
earth. Many boys Of to-day have
heard their parents discuss the sub
jects of to-day, especially the subject
of mobs. l am sure it makes you
angry to read in the daily papers
about mobs; but boys just keep every
thing in your hearts and wait, for the
time will come when mobs will stop.
Why? Because the Negroes will take
charge of them. Discussions rendered
by the white man do not please the
young Negro, although he can not pro-
tect himself, because the law is not
with him. The younger generation
can not stand this. They will rise
up and protect themselves. But boys
go gently on; although the many OBJ
stacles may cross your path, and the
way seem dark, but push on, don't
be discouraged, some day the dark
path will be made bright and the way
clear, but while it seems dark keep
fighting your way to the highest posi-
bic place and the victory will com to
you: then you can look the white man
straight in the face and say, "The
law is for the people and not against
them. | consider my race as a peo-
pie and therefore I share the law with
YOU" Boys lift your eyes to the
light beyond the hill; the gate that
leads to the glory of to-day is standing
open for you, but the way seems so
dark that you cannot see ia. If you
look and think a while you can see
that the gate which leads to victory
is open. The wonderful progress the
Negro has made in forty-four years
is enough to convince you that the
gate which leads to victory is open to
you. The great progress the Negro is
making is marvellous and the white
mar is doing all he can to keep the
Negro down. The white man is dread
ing the Negro on the account of the
wonderful progress he is making in
so short a time. Take all these
things under consideration, especially
mobs striking against the Negro and
prosecuting him. They really do him
good. They bring the Negroes closer
together and enable them to do bust
ness among themselves.

NASHVILLE DELEGATION.

The Nashville delegation to the
State Sunday-school Convention left

UNMANLY ACT.

While the exercises subsequent to the
dedication of the Widows and Or.
phan's Home were in progress at
Greenwood Park last Tuesday some
parties took the occasion to have an
injunction issued against the Masonic
Grand Lodge Officers to restrain them
from holding their session. Just
what grievance the parties had against
the officials of the Grand Lodge we do
not know, but it does seem that some
other time could have been selected to
have them notified of the action about
to be taken against them, AS a race
of people, we are all condemned for
every evil committed by individuals,
but we are not so judged when an indi-
yidual achieves some great success.
Our lodges are being watched with the
utmost scrutiny and some are being
threatened with injunctions by white
men, and while it is right and proper
for every man or set of men to contend
for justice, it is unmanly to dis
turb a whole ~assemblage of people to
crafty a personal grievance.

IN SESSION.
State B. Y. P. U. and sunday-schooI
Convention Hold Session.

CHATTANOOGA, Tenn.-The an
nnual session of the B. Y. P. u. and
S~unday-school Convention 10 in ses-
sion in this city. The meeting was
called to order on Wednesday at the
First Baptist Church of which Rev.
G. A. Bell is pastor. While the dele
cation is not extremely large it is
gratifying to note that they come from
every part of the state. Memphis has
the largest delegation, in fact, more
than makes up the convention. They
came in a special car direct from the
Bluff City. The Nashville delegation
while not so large is quite conspicuous
by its prominence. Chattanooga, of
course is here as is Knoxville, Clarks-
vile, Jackson and all points where
there Is a Sunday-school and B. Y, P.
U. and that are interested in state
work. This is one of the meetings
where the pastors of the Baptist
churches have not attended in large
numbers for some reason, and yet
much is being accomplished. The first
two days of the meeting will be de-
voted to B. Y. P. U. work, while the
remainder of the session will be for
the Sunday-school. Sunday is expect
ed to be an important day in the an
nails on the church history as the city
Iby the Lookout Mountain is making
extra preparations to entertain it's
scores of visitors.

THE HAMPTON INCIDENT.

The New York Age was so silly as
to clip from the daily press what was
purported to be an associated press dis
patch about Bishop Hampton, Of Green
vile, Miss, and publish the same in
their news columns. We know the Age
is given to the clipping habit for news,
but they owe it to their large constit-
uency to stop long enough sometimes
to investigate some things before
heralding them to the world.
1t appears that the Age, over a thou
sand miles from the place where the
incident is supposed to have oc-
Cured, can tell a great deal more
about it than Bishop Hampton knows,
or can learn; and the Age is not the
only paper published by Negroes that
needs to put on the brakes. Our
%neighbor, the Citizen, published in the
metropolis Of the state, needs to sit
up and take notice. The race is better
off without papers unless they can
inform the people truthfully.

GEORGIA RAILROAD CASE.

Down in Georgia they are trying to
decide whether or not Negroes shall
have the right to earn their bread.
The attorney for the strikers is max
ing his case solely on prejudice, and
admits the only ground he has for
asking that the Negroes be dismissed
is because they are black men and
white men want their jobs. The
charge that the Negroes do not make
gOod fremen is false upon it's face.
The fact that some of those employed
by the Georgia Railroad have been
with the company for ten and fifteen
years is the best evidence that a be
cited to prove their efficiency.
The arbitrators who have been Sc
lected to settle this case would do
well to bear in mind that they are
dealing with the destiny of over ten
million people; for if they decide
this case against the Negro it will set
a precedent that jeopardizes any job a
Negro has if a white man wants the
same job.

IS NASHVILLE INDIFFERENT

IS NASHVILLE INDIFFERENT?
Cities that thrive best are those that
are made up of progressive citizens.
1t is a common custom for the mer-
chants and manufacturers to organize
for the specific purpose of advertising
the city. They have organizations
known by different names, but all
working to the same end. Regular
standing committees are elected TO
look after special interests. One of
the most important committees in
these bodies is that that looks after
conventions and assemblies. Thou
sands of dollars are spent by the dele
gates who attend these meetings, and
wide awake merchants are always anx-
ious to have them come.
Negroes Of Nashville who are from
time to time instrumental in placing
conventions, lodges and conferences
have had cause to complain recently
as to the attitude of the merchants
toward them. An impression has been
made that has caused the Negroes
to declare that the merchants of Nash
vile do not desire to have Negro
gatherings come here. They claim
that it has been absolutely impossible
to get any inducements whatever Of
fered by the Board of Trade or Cham.
Der Of Commerce. The promoters OF
the Baptist Sunday-School Congress
did not ask for anything from these
organizations except their good will
but If the statement made by the pro,
moters be true, and we do not doubt IL
in the least, they did not get their good
will, for they were forced to pay
an eXorbatant price for the use Of q
public building for a few hours. A
few weeks ago another committee Of
leading citizens appraised the Board Of
Trade of the fact that in this month
the Commission of the General Con
ference Of the A. M. E. Church would
select the place to hold their mex
meeting. The inducement offered tina
committee was so insignificant tina
this city was not even mentioned

hundreds of visitors come during tn
session, and, all told, they spend owe

WASHINGTON, June 25.-The

resentative Tawney, chairman Of the
appropriations committee, appropriate
ing $1O,OOO,OOO for taking the federal
census next year.
Representative Macon, OF Arkan-

by making the point of order that 1t
was not properly before the house, but
he was overruled. Mr. Macon de-

speaker the house should not make
such a large appropriation without

ESTES LEASES
PRIMM SPRINGS
POPULAR SUMMER RESORT TO
BE RUN ON BIG SCALE.
OPENS JULY I.

Ernest D. Estes has taken a lease
on the Estes House at Primm's
Springs and will open July list for the
summer. Mr.. and Mrs. Estes have
had much experience at Primm's in
assisting their father, the late F. R.
Estes, and they will spare neither
time nor expense in keeping the hotel
up to it's past high standard.
Mr.. Estes has been at the springs
for the past month getting the house
in first-class shape, employing help
and preparing to feed the hundreds.
The old ball room is in bad condition
and will not be repaired this summer,
but a plan is on foot to convert one
of the stores below the hotel into
ball room. All who have been at
Primm's since the storm say that the
of the timber has resulted in
a decrease in dampness and that here
after Primm's will be more desirable
from this standpoint.
