Columbia, Tenn.-An innovation in
race enterprises in the form of a
movement calculated to do untold
good toward helping to build up what
is regarded as one of the greatest
factors in shaping a conservative race
policy, has been started in this
city. The forces at work to accom-
plish this might be considered as
recruits" and yet upon retrospect
i've view it must be admitted that. to
an extent they are not recruits. AS
for centuries back and as it will be
for centuries forward, if times con-
tinues to go on, this same force will
prove to be the most gigantic and
powerful lever in any constructive
form or effort that can be put forth.
Particular reference to this move
ment Is made by your correspondent
because of the uniqueness and the
originality of the plan as it has be-
gun to be worked out in this way
The matter is this: For three years
the citizens of this city, the county
seat Of Maury County, have watched
with astounded amazement the grad
ual, steady and powerful growth of
the Nashville Globe, a paper welding
untold influence in every quarter of
the nation and state for the benefit of
the race So firm has its policy been
in it's advocacy for the cause of right
and on behalf of the people, that it
has attracted the attention of quite
number of children, out of whom
has been formed an organization
whose purpose it will be to see to it
that the Nashville Globe is placed
into every home. The children con-
stituting this organization are school
children and according to the best
and most reliable information at
inah'e they purpose to have the
membership so large that it will take
in every child from to 1S years Old
in the city of Columbia. Those in
terested in this movement so far
have had their earnestness amply re-
warded in the past week, as they
have succeeded in getting an un-
usually interesting list of new read
ers and subscribers. Those who
have worked are Walter Taylor, A.
P. Williams, Sinnie Wilks, James
Terry, Bertha Williams William Ed
mondson, Emma Marshall, A. billiard,
Laura Sims and Rebecca Johnson.
They have received substantial en-
couragement from older people and in
order that the movement might not
be wholly charitable. one, it is un-
derstood that the Nashville Globe has
decided to literally compensate their
efforts. When children decide among
themselves that certain paper ought
to be read, it becomes matter of vi

QUARTERLY CONFERENCE A sUc-
CESS.

Vale Mills, Tenn, November 2S,-
The quarterly Conference held at this
place was the best ever witnessed,
considering all things. Rev James
Childress is known as one of the best
church workers in the Tennessee Con-
ference. After being on this work
only three weeks he called his peo-
pie in quarterly conference and they
came as never before, in wagons, bug
gies, on horses, with baskets filed with
good things. The community is made
of loyal people. Rev. H. L. P. Jones,
the presiding elder, was highly elated
over the meeting. The Conference
collection was SIS. Mr.. Aaron Over
ton was Secretary of the Conference.

SERIOUSLY HURT.

Mr.. James Malone, of Perkins
street, was very painfully hurt We'd
nesday afternoon. Mr.. Malone, who
is very aged man and partially
deaf, was beating rock at the Ran
dali Cole Industrial school, and it
seems that the boys of that place,
while hauling coal to the school
from a car ran over the old man.
He was fouad lying in the street,
where from the bruise5 received he
lost an enormous amount of blood.
He was removed to the hospital,
where he was examined and his in
juries said to be very serious.

relationship of the United States to
Liberia, that Republic last year asked
this Government to lend assistance
in the solution of certain of their ma

The Nineteenth Conference of the
Colored Mems Department of the
Young Mems Christian Association of
North America was held in Louisville,
KY, December 2-5, 1909. Viewed
from whatever angle, the meeting
was an unqualified success. 1t
brought together large number of
strong Christian men Of the race,
whose words of wisdom and messages
of love and fellowship were invalua-
BILE. The success of the meeting was

Washington, D. C.-The text of
the Presidents message submitted
to Congress to-day, follows:
To the Senate and House of Repre-
sentatives:
The relations Of the United States
with all foreign Governments have
contin sd upon the normal basis of
amity and good understanding, and
are very generally satisfactory.
The question arising out of the Bel
gian annexation of the independent
State Of the Congo, which has so
long and earnestly preoccupied the
attention of this Government and
enlisted the sympathy of our
best citizens, is still open, but
in a more hopeful stage. This
Government was among the fore
most in the great work of uplifting
the uncivilized regions of Africa and
urging the extension of the benefits
Of civilization, education and fruitful
open commerce to the vast domain,
and is a party to treaty engage
ments of all the interested powers
designed to carry out that great duty
to humanity. The way to better the
original and adventitious conditions,
so burdensome to the natives and so
destructive to their development, has
been pointed out by observation and
experience, not alone of American
representatives, but by cumu ative
evidence from all quarters, and by
the investigations of Belgian agents.
The announced programmes of re-
forms, while striking at many of the
evils known to exist, are an augury
eof better things. The attitude of
the United States is one of benevo-
lent encouragement, coupled with a
hopeful trust that the good work, re-
ssponsibly undertaken and zea'ously
performed to the accomplishment Of
the results so ardently desired, will
soon justify the wisdom that in
spires them and satisfy the demands
of humane sentiment throughout the
world.
Liberia.
Under the appropriation made at
the last session of the Congress
commission was sent on American
cruisers to Monrovia to investigate
the interests of the United States,
and it's citizens in Liberia Upon it's
arrival at Monrovia the commission
was enthusiastically received, and
during its stay in Liberia was every
where met with the heartiest eX-
pressions of good will for the
American Government and people
and the hope was repeatedly eX-
pressed on all sides that this Govern
ment might see its way clear to do
something to relieve the critical po-
sition of the Republic arising in a
measure from external as well as in
ternal and financial embarrassments.
The Liberian Government afforded
everv facility to the Commission for
ascertaining the true state of affairs.
TIE Commission also had conferences
with representative citizens, interest
ed foreigners and the representatives
of foreign governments in Monrovia.
Visits were made to various parts of
the Republic by the colonization of
British colony of Sierra Leone, where
the Commission was received by and
conferred with the Governor
It will be remembered that the in
terest of the United States in the
Republic of iberia springs from the
historical fact of the foundation Of
the Penublic by the colonization of
American citizens Of the African race.
In an earlv treaty with Liberia there
is a provision under which the United
States may be called upon for advice

from the 35th Mass, which was being
