seventy-fve cents borrowed to buy a
wedding shirt, struck out with his
wife to get ahead. For the first year
the two worked for wages and clear
ed sos. The second year Lockhart
leased for FIVE years, a plantation of
one hundred acres east of Raleigh
When his lease expired, he bought the
place at an average of $22 an acre.
This put the cost of the farm at 1900,
which he gradually paid off from his
crop money. The place is now worth
nearly $4,000. He has not only
made money, but he has also well
educated his four children. His farm
is a model, for on it are crops of cot
ton, corn, wheat, oats, and long list
of truck products His display of
agricultural products, in almost every
line, was a sight worth seeing. Furth-
ermore, he was Justly awarded by the
committee one ($Ioo) hundred dol
lars, the first prize, given by the In
dustrial Association for the best ex-
hibit in this department.
The second case is that of S. M. r.
Slade of Work Greek Township,
Wake County, who owns a farm of
seventy-fve acres, worth about ST.
500. He was born in Caswell Coun-
ty in 1857. His father, together with
the other slaves, were driven off the
farm a year after the war and went
to Almance County, with nothing,
where the whole family toiled hard,
working the soil at first with hoes,
as they owned no horse. Soon young
Slade decided to own some land, so
he bought two and One-half acres for
which he paid $50 of the money he
had saved. Later he bought four
acres more, after making a $3.50 crop
of tobacco the first year on what had
been termed, IAN old field" He liv-
ed in Burlington ten years and sold
his six acres for 5000 Now he IS
told that this same track of land is
worth at least $1,000. In 1896 he
went to Raleigh and paid sos for
seventy-hve acres of land. On this
farm Slade has prospered. The ex-
hibit from this farm, showing some
one hundred and fifty different ar
ticles: Cotton, corn, tobacco, wheat,
grains, vegetables, preserves, pickles,
-four, and whole lot of other things.
The second prize of fifty dollars, for
the next best display, was awarded
him.
The third farmer was Levi Minor,
who took the first and second rib
bonS on corn at the Fair. His farm
is in Saint Mary"s Township, where
he owns three hundred acres OF land,
some fifty acres being under cult
walton. Having saved some money,
about FIVE years ago, he bought a
farm for $1,000. On this he paid
5000 in three payments of two hun
dred dollars each Some time ago
he sold $1,000 worth of timber from
sixty acres, this amount paying off
his Indebtedness and leaving him a
comfortable balance in cash on hand.
The prizes he won on corn shows
that he knows how to farm and to
farm right. Here are four object
lessons; each success and each a
land owner. Is there anything
worth while" in the lives of the
above mentioned characters?

TERMS OF SUBSCRIPTION.
COMMISSION WEST.

The resignation of Commits
sioner II. L. West, to the PreSi-
dent, was, indeed, thunderbolt
to the people of this city, There
is no man in public life more
respected and honored. Mr.
West is a man above reprOach.
He is always willing and ready
at all times, to give a hearing 10
the most humble citizen. He
has never been too big to throw
open his doors to receive those
in distress. President Taft
would do the community a favor
if he would refuse to accept Mr..
Vests resignation. He has
been too valuable a man to lose.
He has managed the affairs Of
our local government in man
ner that commends him to the
people. His record is one that
will stand the light of day. His
retirement means that the people
loses one of their most honor
able men, and a benefaCtOr. Mr..
West is a journalist of ability.
He is a political prophet and
very seldom, if ever, he misses
a prediction. He knows men
and he is respected by them.
Mr.. West is a man who doesn't
believe that the rich should pos
sess all and the poor nothing.
This is only one of his many
noble characteristics. The
President could not retain a bet
ter man in office. But why
should The Bee make this plea I?
He needs no defence. His char
acter and reputation recon-
mended him to the people he
has so faithfully served.
Mr.. West has so conducted
himself that entities him to the
respect and confidence OF the
people Can the people afford
to allow him to resign without
a protest to the President. If
Mr.. West insist on resigning
and the President decides to
accept his resignation who will
the people recommend to sue
coed him?
Mr. West knew no man by
the color of his skin or the curl
of his hair He appointed more
colored men to office than our
distinguished Republican COM
missioner. He had no preju-
dices; he recognized merit and
nothing more. He is always
willing and ready to correct an
error and the first man to give
an accused the benefit of all
doubt. The Bee regrets sincere
ly, his retirement from the COM
missionership.
Unless his successor is a
liberal Democrat, the colored
citizens who number ninety
thousand will have but little
consideration under the new re-
gime. The colored people have
been better treated under Mr..
West than by any other commits
sioner. The Bee knows his
heart, The Bee knows that he
is a man who believes in fair
play. There is but one man
who will come nearer filling the
bill than any other man named
among the great list of candi-
dates, and that man is Captain
James F. Oyster. No better
man as Mr.. Vests successor
can be selected. Will Mr.. Taft
name him? He will be accept
able to the masses.

NOTES ON RACIAL PROGRESS
As Reported by The National Negro
p,1cIuacC I aoo,,a

N@S-AA~NS @@~N@So 49,
Between October goth and 27th
local leagues were organized in North
Carolina in the following places
Windsor, Winton, Tarboro, Rocky
Mount, and a State Negro Business
League at Raleigh, the capital.
Lewis Thomas, a farmer who lives
in East Monroe Township, Monroe,
N. C., says that he picked this fall
1867 pounds of cotton from one acre
and three rows of measured land. Be
ing hard worker and doing his part
in the world of work, he enjoys the
reputation of making good crops in
his neighborhood.
During the recent Colored Fair
held in Raleigh, n. c., October 245th
to goth, there were three farmers who
made exhibits that deserve special
mention. The first one is Fletcher
Lockhart. who is regarded as one OF
Wake County's most prosperous
truck growers. He was born slave
in 1854. When freedom came he was
all alone in the world, as both father
and mother were dead He worked

men who do things. With some more
timely financial aid it would seem that
his dream for the betterment of his
race is about to be realized.
Gen. Julian S. Carr is the treasurer

The Washington bee., 1909-11-20

the President does accept the
resignation of Mr.. West, for God
sake Mr.. President give the col
ored people man in whom they
have confidence and respect.
Relative to the Republican
commissioner, who will he be?
There are few who will fill the
bill. Mr.. Chaplin Brown, form
erly president of the Bar Asso-
citation, Col. M. NJ. Parker, DR.
VIM. Trindall, or VIM. Metzertt
Any of the above will give
satisfaction. The Bee hopes
that the President will not ap-
point such a white Republican
who is afraid to shake a col
ored citizens hand. The Bee is
of the opinion that the colored
citizens would fare better under
two Democratic Commissioners.
If Captain James F. Oyster and
Mr.. Charles w. Darr would fill
the bill. If we are to Judge By
the past colored Republicans
have even given greater consid-
Grafton from the Democratic
Commissioners. Let it be I'M
derstood, however, that The
Bee and people are for the re-
tention of Mr.. West il it is the
Presidents and Mr.. Vests will.
Mr.. WEST AND Mr.. MAC
FARLAND
The designations of Mr.. West
and Mr.. mcfarland, as Com
missioners of the District of Co
lumbia were not only surprises,
but they are to be regretted by
the citizens of this city. These
commissioners were faithful and
honest in the discharge of their
duties. They served the people
faithfully and it is the duty of
the people to show their appreci-
alton of their work before they
finally retire from office.
Mr.. West gives his reason for
retiring is to enter the field OF
journalism. Not a more indie
pendent vocation in life can be
followed.
A journalist is his own boss,
He makes and unmakes bosses.
Mr.. West is a journalist of abili-
ty and will no doubt be as sue
cessful in this field as he Com
missioner of the District of Co.
lumbia. 1t has always been
surprising to The Bee, that a
man of such independent mind
as Mr.. West possesses should re-
main the slave of Uncle Sam so
long. Mr.. mcfarland is also Il
journalist. But he prefers not to
return to his first love, but to
the law. No occupation in the
world is greater than that of a
lawyer.
Both men retire from office
without a blemish. Both have
the respect and cooperation OF
the people, and just who their
successors will be is a conjec-
ture, but The Bee would be
more than pleased to see that
honest Roman Captain James F.
Oyster as the successor of Mr..
West and Mr.. Chaplin Brown
the successor of Mr.. mcfarland.
Both OF these appointments
would meet popular approval,
