The Washington Bee, in the issue
of July 80, makes an attack on the
president of the National Negro Press
Association for which we fail to see
any Just cause. The Bee says:
There has been a fake press
association called to meet in New
York at the time of the Negro Bus
mess League is to meet there.
DR.. Washington doesn't want any
fake association attached to his
Negro Business League. This
League is doing something to ele-
vate the colored race. The So
called press association is called
by a man who depends on real
editors to publish his matter. II
there are colored editors fools
enough to be duped into a fake
organization, The Bee will not be
one. If there is need for a first
class colored press association, let
there be one organized and a real
editor, elected president of 1T. We
have had enough takers and fake
institutions in this country. We
want legitimate institutions and
organizers. This affair in New
York is what we may call the tail
leading the head.
The National Negro Press Associa-
ton was organized at Louisville, KY,
during the last session of the National
Negro Business League. Mr.. R. W.
Thompson, of Washington, D. c, was
elected president, DR.. r. H. Boyd, OF
Nashville, Tenn, was elected cores
bonding secretary. Other prominent
publishers were elected officers of the
association. But to the. Bee all these
men are takers. Will the day ever
come when Negroes will be willing
to share the honors, and of a truth,
the labors of the world with their
fellowmen?
The National Press Association may
not have done all that it seems TO
some it might have, but when any
one essays to assert that it is a fake
organization, we challenge them for
proof. On more than n occasion ii
has been stated that the present heat
of the association is not an editor OF
any paper, and in fact that is the
only charge advanced by the Bee.
fail to see how not being an editor
should d~isqualify a man for a position
in a press association. Mr.. Thomp'
son certainly has rendered and is now
rendering great service TO the Negro
papers throughout the country. He
has now organized an association t.
systematically gather the news OF the
Negroes from every quarter, and FOL
attempting to do so he and his asso
ciates are held up as a band of takers
This charge is not sufficient to con
fict, and the Bee will have to renew
their case to get it before the court

DISCUSSES APPALACHIAN EXPO
SITION TO NASHVILLE AU
DIENCE,

Those who heard DR.. A. M. Green
talk on the Appalachian Exposition
last Wednesday night no doubt re-
ceived more information upon the 3D.
iect of this Well adyerCseu ana VIDE
.ly known exposition than they ould
have obtained by reading constantly,
book after book and paper upon top
of paper. DR.. Green came to the-e1ty
at the urgent request OF the directors
of the exposition located here. His
visit was for the sole purpose OF hav-
ing a heart to heart talk with the
business men, school people, manufac-
turers and the industrious class OF Ne
gro citizens, who would likely take
advantage of the opportunity that
this exposition is offering to show that
they are a part of a parcel in the
development of every phase and every
interest of the eight states In the
Appalachian region. Every detail that
could be touched upon briefly in the
time allotted that was Of interest TO
the proposed pleasure-seekers or ex-
hibitors was made plain by DR.. Green,
who in a straightforward, yet enter
tanning way, told what has been done
what was being done and what would
be done for the Negro, who in the
end would profit by all the good &C
accomplished by the celebration ina
was to extend over a period OF ter
years.
The audience listened with the most
profound interest as he gave graphic
descriptions of the enormous amount
of work that had already been accom-
plished by the directors. Possibl!
the masses were interested most II
the statement, that the Exposition
authorities had succeeded in haVln'
all the railroads throughout tn
United States, allow a fiat one cen
per mile rate from every portion o
the country to this big show. AS al
illustration; a party will be able t
buv a ticket from FL Paso, Texas
through New Orleans by the way o
Nashville into Knoxville at one cen
per mile. All people coming from
distance of one hundred miles or NOR
to Knoxville will be admitted to tn
Exposition free, said DR.. Green, afte
he had just remarked that ther
would be miles of actual midway a.
of which would be seen upon the prlc
of one admission to the grounds.
Mr.. Green made plain the fact ina
every piece of work of art, whethe
with the needle, pen, brush, chisel
what not, would find a welcome plac
in this exposition. While the sho'
may possibly give more space to tn

BEHIND TIME.

Our esteemed contemporary, The
Journal and Guide, of Norfolk, Va,
is away behind time in Tennessee
politics. The campaign just closed
was not a primary but a regular cleo
ton. Commenting on the political
situation in this state the Journal
and Guide says:
The colored citizens Of Tennes-
see seem to be cutting a large fig
ure in the Democratic primary
now being waged in that state.
Even the Negro religious press
has lined up for the fray, and
the combat deepsns.
We admire the Independent spir-
it of u Tennessee brethren but
fear that as usual, when the
smoke of battle is cleared the Ne
groes will be right where they
were at first. No matter which
side wins their status will not
change. After the election the
independent Democrats and Pat
terson Democrats will all be REG
ULAR Democrats, and will treat
the colored brother alike.
If we understand the signs at
this distance the colored leaders
or most of them, are lined up
with the Patterson faction of the
Democratic party. To our mind
that is a bad omen, as the Pat
terson Democrats are opposed to
the moral issues of the Tennessee
campaign. We believe that the
people Of Tennessee have decided
to get rid of Governor Patterson
and his administration, and if
they are defeated at this attempt
by a coalition of Democrats, Re
publicans and Negroes, they will
ultimately succeed IN ousting him.
Regardless of what the outcome
of the election may be, the colored
men of Tennessee are to be COM
mended for showing the ~independ-
dent spirit in politics. 1t will
teach the Taft administration a
lesson, and shows that the N
groes no longer feel bound to vote
the Republican ticket.
We highly appreciate the intere
manifested in our welfare by the lea
ing Negro journal in Virginia, and v
accept it as genuine. We, no dout
would be apprehensive about OF
neighbor in the Old Dominion if thu
were in a position like ours. b
