Speaking to great crowd in Wash

campaign trip across Indiana yesterday
Col. Roosevelt denounced theNew York
state democracy with all the emphasis
which he can command.
"We are fighting for the rule of the
people against the most shameless
ombination of crooked politics and
crooked finance that our state has seen
since Tweed was driven from power"
he declared.
John A. Dix, democratic candidate
for governor, he dismissed with a few
words as the respectable and unim-

RINGLNG'S CIRCUS
HAS BEEN HERE

Ringling's Bros. Circus gave two
performances here yesterday afternoon
and night. To say that this great show
pleased everybody is expressing it
mildly. The show was without a doubt
the greatest and most satisfactory that
has ever visited our city. In view Of
the fact that this circus permits no
''grafting" there was little trouble,
considering that the afternoon per-
Torrance alone was witnessed by APP
proximately $4,000 people.
The show is morally clean and we
will welcome its return any time in
the future. Mr.. Albert Sweets Con-
cert Band was one of the features of
the evening and that gentleman re-
flected great credit on the management
by his select program which was well
rendered by his musicians. Mr.. Sweet
is an excellent musician and sustained
his popular reputation as such at both
performances, although his evening
program was more suited to the people.

of the Methodist church.
DIR. Lucas, who made the principal
address, declared that the negro in
America would awaken to full reali.
cation of his duty to his brethren in
Africa as soon as he came to do more
for the church and educational work
at home.
ave have made great progress along
this line" he declared. "During the
last year the twenty colored conferences
raised So, 600 more for foreign missions
than ever before, and while we are
raising every day in our benevolent
contributions, we have not yet come
up to the expectation of the church"
Calling serious attention to many Of
the shortcomings of his race, DR.. Lucas
gave some pointed advice, and among
other things, said:
"The colored man must learn tC
count his victories. He pays toe
much attention to defeats. The world
does not want to learn of failures. One
half of our people lose all their energy
for the future in thinking and talking
about the past. / long to see the time
come when some of our best young
men and women will be willing tc
consecrate themselves and hive theil
lives to the evangelization of Africa
We must take a few lessons from the
white man. He will go to the end o.
the world to save souls and to find
gold. The white man is on the from
tiers of this world today trying to re
deem humanity and to gain wealth
and control.
The negro is too afraid to leave his
folks. Afraid somebody vii die anC

to Africa and gives his live for the re

always talk about it, but he goes Il
church, rain or shine. We want to b.

ligious life save our feelings. w,
have become so emotional in our re
Iigion that il permerates our every en-

cOLORED METHOD
IST CONFERENCE

The principle feature OF yes
terday's session of the East Ten
nessee Conference of the Meth
odist Episcopal Church was a
strong address by Bishop L. B.
Wilson to the members of the
class of young ministers who
were seeking admission to the
conference. The address con-
tanned such common sense adj
vice to the clergy in general
and was particularly adapted
to the needs of members of the
negro race, making up the con-
ference. The address was heard
by all the members of tine con-
ference and members of the
East Tennessee laymen's con-
vention, who had assembled to
hear it, and a large number of
colored citizens of this city.
Bishop Wilson referred in his
address to the recent liquor fight
in the state of Tennessee, and
declared that no matter how
the press and prominent indi-
viduals stood on certain popu-
lar evils, such as intemperance
and gambling, that there was
no question as to the proper at
titude of the minister of the
gospel. The keynote of his adj
dress was that the minister
should be moral and spiritual
leader and placed great stress
upon the necessity of the lay
men standing by such minister
in his efforts for the uplift OF
the people.
There can be no successful
emotional preaching, he declar-
ed, that does not carry with ii
exemplary moral and spiritual
leadership. The negro race
nor any other race need not ex-
pect to win out today unless ii
sticks to the principles and MOI
atty and good citizenship.
Considerable business was
transacted by the conference.
An able sermon was preached
in the afternoon by Rev. j. H
Gardner, of Big Stone Gap.

The duty of the negro church people
, of America toward their brethren IN
