LIQUOR DEALERS

Elsewhere in The Bee will be
seen and read with interest the
resolutions passed by the Retail
Liquor Dealers Association. The
resolutions adopted by this ASST
citation are very commendable
and if followed, there can be no
complaint made by those who
are opposed to the saloons.
Strange to say, only one color
ed retail liquor dealer belongs to
this association. Colored saloon
keepers don't seem to guard
their own interest. When the
bill to abolish saloons was before
the Senate District Committee
last winter, not a colored liquor
dealer appeared before it.
The COlored Personal Liberty
League, an organization that has
been advertising the liquor in
terest, was the only colored or
ganization that had counsel to
appear before that committee.

OUR SCHOOLS

The recent changes in the
public schools have caused con-
sternation to some extent, but
there is hardly a teacher in the
divisions from which the two su-
pervising principals were trans
ferred who expresses any regret.
The Bee for two years has urged
the removal or transfer OF
MesSrs. Nalle and Bailey. The
Bee said then, as it does now,
that the transfer OF these TWO sd
pervising principals would re-
dound to the best interest of the
public schools. Both of these
men are now reaping what they
have been sowing A person must
not come to the conclusion that
he is a fixture in any position.
A person that has become intoxi-
icated over a little temporary
power should remember that a
day of retribution is bound to
come. Both of these men could
have been receiving the plaudits
of the masses instead of their
condemnation and jubilation.

WHAT THEY LEAD TO

White reforms are good some
times, but, more or less they all
lead to destruction of good exist
ing conditions. The teachers,
that is the colored teachers, are
up in arms. They don't know
what danger awaits them. Per
sons who are employed in the
public schools cannot do their full
duty when the affairs in the
schools are unsettled.
The wholesale changes in the
colored schools may not be the
best thing for the betterment of
the public school system. Be-
cause teacher becomes old in.
the service is no reason that he
or she should be denoted or dis
missed. We should be reminded
of the story of the son and ia
ther. This was related unto us
while upon a back sick unto
death. 1t was related by a very
distinguished friend of ours. A
father had become old and de-
cript. The son advised him to go
to the poor house. The father
readily consented, because he
saw that his son was getting tired
of him, and if he didn't go some
where his treatment by his son
would be unbearable. Upon his
back the son carried his father to
the poor house, but, just before
he reached the poor house the
son was compelled to stop and
rest. He saw a rock and upon
that large rock he placed the old
man and himself to rest.
Some thirty years after that,
the son had become old and he
also was carried to the poor
house. Just as he reached the
rock upon which he placed his
father in years gone by, the son
was placed. Co." said the son,
"did | ever think that the time
would come when | would be
compelled to sit upon this rock?"
why this is the rock upon
which I placed my father thirty
years agor'
So it will be seen that the time
may come some day when just
retribution will be meeted out to
those who deprecate old age. We
should be careful. The old and
faithful teacher cannot help his
condition. He has served the
youth we'll in his younger days
and in his retiring age he should
be treated most literally.

the Durham colored people.
THE NEGRO POLITICIAN
From the Forth Worth Outlook
1t must be admitted that the Negro
Politician is a failure. He neither
Understands the philosophy of politics
n5l will he be taught its rudiments by
those who know.
The Negro politicians ambition is
for Office and so far as his people are
concerned he cares but little. The
Negro politician is everlastingly
scheming to injure those who may
aspire for office. His ambition is for
Office and nothing more. If he fails
to get an Office the administrative
power is all wrong and the chief
executive is inimical to his people.
There are some politicians who
love politics for the novelty and
amusement realized and there are a
few others who believe that to the
victor belongs the spoils.'
This is the sensible politician and
there is much wisdom in his philos-
ophy,-Washington Bee.
The Bee in this expression is in
the main correct, but the statement
is too broad in that it includes all Ne
gro politicians.
The Outlook believes that there
are some worthy Negro politicians
who are moved by high and worthy
motives. Taking the terms politics
from which the adjective politicians
is derived, it by no means carries
with the low idea that is currently
applied to the term, but is a proper
term to be used and applied to all
men who are actively interested in
governmental questions.
The Negro as an American citizen
has right to be a politician. OF
con, - -: admit that the majority of
the men who have interested them
selves in politics have abused their
privileges and betrayed the race, but
we do not believe that all of them
have been thus moved.

DIR. SHEPARD

DIR. SHEPARD
From the Durham Daily Sun
Durham moves onward. Durham is
building along all lines as she has
never built before. This time the
colored people of our city score a
great success, and the harmony of
feeling, and cooperation of their
white friends, has made it possible
for them to establish here a great
educational institution, which will be
to them in North Carolina what Tus-
kegee is to their race in Alabama.
The leading spirit in this successful
move is DR.. James F. Shepard of this
city, who is the pride of his people
here and who is an indefatigible
worker for the uplift of the Negro,
industrially as we'll as spiritually, and
lie is backed by a community of color
ed people, for energy, industry and
thrift that cannot be equaled-we
make no exceptions for any place.
The intelligent, upright and God-fear-
ing Durham Negro is making his
way and mark in the fruitful fields of
sObriety and honest business toll, as
their work shows for itself, and the
achievement in getting this training
school is an example. They are ably
seconded by the white people, and
they are much elated over their sue
cess.

eral years, and was an active member
over forty years. There were but few
members of the church at the fun

RIGA, he could only say that cancer is
a disease Of over-indulgence. On his
return from Africa in the summer Of
1906 he said in an interview at Chi
cago that cancer is a result of high
living" and warned particularly
against over-indulgence in rich foods
and in tobacco.
In recent years gratifying progress
has been made in determining the ma
ture Of cancer by means of expert
ments on animals. BY far the greater
part of our fundamental knowledge of
physiology, of pathology, and particu-
larly of the germ theory of disease,
has been obtained by such expert
ments. Hundreds of thousands of
white mice and rats have been inocu-
lated with cancer in the various insti
tutiOns devoted to the study in this
country and in Europe, the conditions
of its growth observed and the results
recorded. The facts thus obtained
have thrown much light upon it's de-
velopment, but thus far no conclusion
has been arrived at as to it's true ma
ture, the means by which it may be
prevented and the specific cure.
These experiments have shown that
all the domestic animals, especially
the dog, are subject to cancer: that
while it is not contagious, it can be
communicated from one animal to an
other of the same species by a process
of grating; that a natural immunity is
sometimes established by a process
more subtle than any other natural
system of defense against disease ex-
listing in the body. 1t was found that
cancer grown on white mice in Berlin
could not be engrafted upon white
mice reared in London. AS we all
have at some time in our lives a be-
ginning of consumption which the ma
tural defenses of the system NAV
overcome without our knowledge. so
one can have incipient cancer and
overcome it without knowing anything
about it,
The true theory Of the cause of can
Ger and its cure must be found by
from the data furnished bv
those experiments conducted on both
sides Of the Atlantic, all of which are
at the command of Independent inves-
tigators together with the statistics
Of deaths from cancer recorded in this
country and in Europe. /
Columbus was not the most skillful
navigator of his time. Thousands had
