The business men of Nashville and
vicinity will have a splendid opportu-
nifty to show to the people what they
have accomplished when the State
Fair opens. It will be necessary,
though, to lay aside the petty jeal-
ousies that exist among them and
work in unison in things pertaining
to the general unfit of the race.
"Beerette," "Nearbeer" and "Neu
Bru" are some of the fancy names
given the supposedly soft drinks be-
ing sold in our city. If reports are
true these soft drinks are nothing less
than real beer, and are used also as a
cover for strong drinks of all kinds.
That Y. M. G. A. work has taken on
new life was clearly demonstrated at
the sermon at Mount Olive Baptist
Church last Sunday. The forty thou.
sand Negroes Of Nashville should aid
the young men to erect a suitable
building for their meetings.
Provision was made by the last
General Assembly of the State for one
normal, agricultural and mechanical,
college for the Negro youth of Ten
nessee. 1t is incumbent upon every
Negro citizen of this Commonwealth
to lend hand in the proper establish
ment of this institution.

Correction.

Dear Mr.. Editor, please give space
for little correction of statement
made in your write-up of the doings
of the churches in the city on Sab
bath of July 4th. You made it appear
as If st. John took a different course
from the old standing custom of near
ly half century; and that the morn
ing service was dispensed with that
the pastor might make prohibition
speech. Please allow me to correct the
mistake did not make prohibition
speech. After baptizing Is persons in
the Cumberland river between six and
seven o'clock, we returned to the
church at eleven o'clock and general
class was the order of the service as
is the usual custom in this church
on first Sundays. On opening the SER
vices l referred to the closing of the
saloons of the city as a great victory
in favor of Christianity and spoke
few words to make it plain to the
congregation how inconsistent it was
to pray to God to aid in the removal
of these great evils and when the
prayer is answered, the praying ones
go around complaining about the in
justice of the means that brought it
to pass. l said the church had all
to shout for and nothing to sigh for.
St John had her General Glass as
usual on the first Sunday which was
the 4th of July, and was high day in
Zion. We baptized 81 persons that
day and had four to join the church.
We had our usual Sacrement service
Sunday evening at $780,
Yours for Christ and His church,
A. BROOKS,
Pastor St. John.

their labor, but because friendly

FRIDAY JULY is, 1909.
TRUE IN PART.

In the Nashville American of July
9 communication was published
over the signature Of Mr. William
Jerome, a citizen of this city, in which
the writer states some very timely
facts, but in other instances he makes
assertions on which we do not fully
agree. The article referred to
was prompted it appears from the
general discussion of the appointment
of census enumerators to take the
next census in the South. 1t was
headed Justice for the Negro" and
reads as follows
read very carefully the editorial
in yesterday mornings American
which begins, "The race question is
ever present in the South" and l
thought you might have added, "and
it will always be burning question
so long as cheap newspapers and poll
tical demagogues continue to agitate
it."
Your editorial pertains in the main
to Negro census enumerators. South
ern statesmen and newspapers speak
of these "jobs" as though they were
positions of great social distinction.
And then you forget that there are
many Negro homes into which enum-
orators must go. Now why not be
consistent and allow the colored peo-
pie to insist on having Negro enumera-
tors wait on them? The whole ques-
tion seems to me to be one of petty
politics. If it is Office we are after let
us get it in a more dignifed and hon
orable way than by making sentiment
which is inimical to the best interests
of the Negro.
You say in your editorial, and you
frequently say it that there is no
better friend to the Negro than the
Southerner." l take it that the senti.
ment of the South is either moulded
or reflected by its newspapers and it's
best citizens. These two factors in
the South have certainly put them
selves on record as being opposed ia
the Negro in any capacity except as a
"hewer of wood and drawer OF
water" Mr.. Hoke Smith says that he
shhould have little learning, and The
American endorses his position in to-
to. Have you not learned that a
little learning is a dangerous thing?'
Is such man friend to the Negro:
No person is friend to the Negro
who would deny him the privilege OF
aspiring to and attaining the object Of
his ambition, whether it be along the
lines of higher education or otherwise
I do not think it extravagant to say
that 80 per cent of the Southern people
are friendly to Negroes only because
it Is profitable to them. The Negro
must look elsewhere for sincere
friends. Would it not be better IL
this question were not agitatet
longer?-WiIHam Jerome.
The Globe heartily agrees with Mr.
Jerome in his contention that Il
would be nothing but fair to appoint

The situation in the Republican camp,

POLITICS.

The Negoes of this country are oft
en- advised to stay out of politics, but
those who are preaching such doctrine
are more or less found participating
in the conducting of the affairs of the
people in some way. The Globe does
not believe that Negroes nor people
of any other nationality should be-
come interested in politics to the ex-
tent that they will lose sight of every
thing else, but it is fact that men
who make the best citizens are those
who can find time to study the needs
of the community and will use their
ballots to put in Office those aspirants
whom they believe to be the best
qualified to serve the people and
will give honest service. 1t can
be seen from daily utterances
that the American people are becom-
ing more and more independent vot-
ers, and are putting in places of pub
lie trust the men they have confidence
in.
Every voter in Nashville, if present
indications maintain, will be called
upon in the approaching municipal
election to decide who shall conduct
the affairs of this city during the
next term of the city government.
Some Of the present incumbents will
likely desire to succeed themselves;
and there will be others who have
held Office before, who are known to
the voters of the city, and there will
also be new men in the race, we'll
known as successful business men,
but who have never held Office in the
city government. The voters will be
asked to decide between these three
types of aspirants. They may all be
good men, but the question to be de-
cided will be which is the best?
