CAUSE
OF AMERICAN NEGRO DISCUSSED
National Conference Of Noted White
\ and Coioled Men and Women
speak I'm His Behalf at New ,Yorl,
.~ Meeting. -

New York, May 31.-A national
conference in the interest of the
american Negro was opened IN the
united Charities buildisg in this city
today by Prof. Burt G. Wilder, of
cornell university, and Profs. Liv-
lngston Farrand, e. r. A. Seligman
and John Dewey, of Columbia univer-
stty. The conference will be in session
for two days
Prof. Wilder brought from ithaca
several brains, including those of an
ourang-outang, an interruptions pol
itician, an illiterate colored janitor
and an eminent mathematician.
The brains of the average Ameri-
can Negro seems to be about two
ounces lighter than that OF the aver
ago white man. said Wilder. "and
probably there occurs more frequent
ly than in the white man a less de-
velopment Of the prefrontal lobes
These two conditions render it like
~ the whites will remain the domf-
nant race"
MRS. Cecilia Parker Wooley, found
or OF the Frederick Douglass Center
lii Chicago, was the chairman of the
AFTERNOON session, and spoke on
The Industrial and Educational
Status of the Negro"
Prof. w. e. Dubois, Of Atlanta
university, Georgia, declared that the
idea OF taking the Negro out of poll
Tics is wrong, as it leaves him a
prey Of mobs.
At the evening session, the speak
ers included Judge Wendell Phillips
Stafford, Of the supreme court of the
District Of Columbia; Rev. jenkins
Lloyd Jones, Of Chicago; Prof. John
Spencer Barrett, Of Smith college,
Northampton, Mass; Rev. J. Milton
Waldron, Of Washington, D. c., and
Clarence Darrow, Of Chicago.

STAND
AGAINST COItORED FIREMAN RE.
-. TARDS. ~...... .
Settlement Of Railroad Strike i'm
Georgia, AS Neither Side Seems
Wiling % Give i'm on This Point.

Atlanta, Ga, May 3O.-There were
no new developments in the strike
situation today. Officials of the Geor-
gla railroad and the Brotherhood of
Locomotive Firemen spent nearly
the entire day in conference, taking
up the questions in the strike agree
ment that remain to be settled.
commissioner NeiH, Chairman
Knapp and Second Assistant Post
master General Stuart were present
at the conference, which will be rs,-
sumed tomorrow. 1t is thought bv
those conversant with the strike sit
uatfon that the points in dispute will
be given to board Of arbitration
under the Erdman law.
The race question will retard the
settlement Of the strike, az the
white frenen are determined to stick
to their stand that the Negro firemen
must go and not be employed in any
capacity. The other points will be
speedily adjusted, it is expected.
There are several reasons why the
race question is so important. The
Georgia railroad Is considered q
nome institution. 1t employs Georgia
men only. It's flremen and engineers
and conductors, and even it's brake
men, are all NATIVES of towns and vii
lagos through which it's trains run.
These men have intermarried until
nearly whole communities are reIat-
ed. One engineer told Commissioner
Nefll that there was not q town on
his run between Atlanta and Angus
ia In which he did not have blood
relatives. Many Of the men come
from old and highly respected fami-
lies, and the idea Of working with q
Negro is abhorrent to them.
1t Is repulsive to their relatives.
too, and to this feeling Is attributed
the strong stand taken by entire com
munities against the railroad.
Should the Negroes win in the final
settlement of the dispute many be-
lteve there will be strong sentiment
created against permitting the Ne
grces to continue at work. This feel.
Ing does not exist so strongly in the
larger cities, such az Atlanta and Au-
gusta, and it Is possible that If the
railroad insists upon keeping some OF
the older black employees and will
consent to work them only in the
yards Of the cities named. that the
problem will be solved.
It Is expected that normal train
service, with the exception of the
freight department, will be establish
ed at an early hour tomorrow morn
ing.

Name.
ASA ~.

Vlcksburg, Miss, May 31.-At the
recent meetings of the grand LODGES
hnlshts OF Pythias (white) of this
state and Louisiana action at law tn
Cestrain Negro organizations from
! using the same name was authorized:
rms move on the part Of these two
Jurlsolctlons was not unexpected. Il
mas oeen contemplated for some
years and was only postponed to
await the outcome OF the suit IN
Georgia, where the grand lodge, with
the permission Of the supreme lodge,
secured an injunction from the SUI
preme court restraining the county
OF Fulton from granting incorpora-
ZION papers to the Negro organtaa,
uon. The question is now before tho
supreme court of the United States
ana until its final settlement, the
negroes Will make no change in their
name Or emblems. They, appear RI
/ nave a good case, one OF which the
outcome would not be in doubt If left
10 an unprecedented tribunal, for the
white knights themselves had taken
no steps to incorporate before the an
pIcatlon of the colored organization.
Inc Negro Fythians are not the
only ones who are being called upon
TO protect their organizations name,
A suit Is now pending in the Missis-
s1ppi court against the Grand United
Order Of Odd Fellows, which, though
affiliated directly with the parent
body in England, is called upon to
fight for it's life. Both these frater-
mites are doing excellent work for
| the uplift Of their members through
out the southland. At New Orleans,
the Pythians are erecting a temple
OF reinforced concrete which is sur
fpassed by no other fraternal head
quarters building south Of the Ohio.
They, like the Odd Fellows here and,
4 in fact, all through the south, are
spending thousands of dollars caring
for their sick, burying their dead and
4 providing for the maintenance OF THE
widows and orphans OF deoeaaed
imelnhars. 49, If BAas D. slaak dl
business the whites who oofhpiai1i
$50 loudly now Of the black man s dis
inclination to help himself will have
additional cause for complaint, for
= they will be called upon to do, in a
large measure, what the Negro Sc
cret societies are now doing. 1t
goes without the saying that the
courts decisions are awaited with
much anxiety by both whites and
| blacks. .. ..

Senator Scott abs made himself
very solid down in our country BY
his stand on lumber and coal; both
Senators have for that matter and
we feel that We have representatives
In the Saan.e who are on their job

1t would be a great pity to send a
man to the Senate in place Of Sena-

entail man may become after serV-
ing one or two terms in the United
States Senate"
While talking on the political sub
jects it might he we'll to say some
thing about the Marshalship of the
Southern District and the Attorney
ship and Marshalship Of the Northern
District. Many Of the papers OF the
State have been stating that Senator
Scott, especially, has made definite
promises to certain gentlemen con-
corning these appointments. The Sen
ator was asked about this and said ::
"The terms Of the gentlemen hold
ing these offices do not expire until
along in December or January, near
| ~ a year away. 1t Is too early to
take action Of any kind and 1t Is also
too early to make promises. / have

Of which any state might be proud.
The showing of both class of banks
is that the savings of the people of

the first of June to the first of Sep

Mimic War

The South Dakota National Guard
and a company of four hundred
Indians from the reservation went
through an unusual experience at
Pierre last week. An eastern NOV
ing picture company had heard of
the reproduction of the Custer battle
as an amusement feature of the Gas
Belt Exposition. and they offered
1000 for the privilege of taking
pictures of the fight.
The scene of the battle was on the
hills north of Pierre, and it consum.
ed the entire afternoon in taking the
pictures, which it is estimated cost
the company $50 200. Three ma
chimes were in operation all the time
and those who witnessed the fight
say that it was as spectacular AS
though it was the reality instead of
the mimic.
The moving picture company hg-
ure that it will make the most sem
sational set of pictures on record.

That Winning Smile

Have you ever noticed how many
favors and courtesies you could win
with a smile? If not, try it. HUI
mainly, big or little, black or white,
is more susceptible to a smile than
to any other one thing on earth.
That is a well established fact which
any intelligent man or woman will
concede, ond yet like many other
self-evident truths it is disregarded
by ninety-nine people out of a hun
dred all through life. Even in this
money-mad age. where the average
American is supposed to be entirely
engrossed in business, a pleasant
manner is the most valuable asset a
person could have in furthering his
or her own interests. No person
can stand alone and say he is indie
pendent Of his fellow men IN any
walk of life, and the one with a
ready smile and a pleasing manner
will find he has a path Of roses to
tread in comparison to what his
grouchy brother will encounter.
So you see even if you don't wear
a crown for unseifishness, it is to
your own interest to don that smile
the first thing every morning.
