NATIONAL GRAND MASTER CON-
ING

The United Brothers of Friendship
of Tennessee, those who are espec-
tally interested in the development OF
that splendid organization, are max
ing extensive preparations to quietly
entertain Hon. William A. Gaines. the
National Grand Master, who will be
here Sunday afternoon for a council
with those connected with the order.
The Honorable Mr.. Gaines is from
Covington, Ky. He is to speak at the
Brown Building, that is, the confer
ence is to be held there. The real DUR
pose of Mr. Gaines visit to Nashville
is said to be simply in the course of
his official capacity, as the National
Grand Master, a position he is now
filing, having been elected the fourth
successive time Each term means
three years, hence for twelve years
or thereabouts, he has presider with
dignity over the U. B. F. and S. M.
T. When Mr.. Gaines reaches Nash
Vile he will have just completed a
tour through Texas. His mission
there was successful one, according
to reports, for while in the Lone Star
State he succeeded in uniting all the
warning factions, bringing them back
into full fellowship of the order. The
fact that Mr.. Gaines will be here pos
sibly Saturday to remain over Sun
day and Monday means cordial re-
ception for him on all sides.

cipals of the colored schools. This
will necessitate the promotion Of some
one to a principalship.
1t is evident by the decision of the
Board of Education to elevate one of
the principals to a supervisorship that
some one of the professors now teach
ing in the public schools would be
promoted to fill the position vacated
by the motion, thereby keeping
the promotions in the ranks Of
the teaching force which would
of natural consequence be
given to one of the assistant princi-
pals. There are several teaches con-
sidered competent to fill the position
of assistant principal, among the
lumber being quite few ladies'.
There is an inclination prevalent in
the country toward the recognition
of women in high positions in school
work, a lady having been recently
elected superintendent of the public
schools of one of the cities in this
country, and at the last meeting OF
the National Association of Teachers
a lady was elected president.

Wednesday and Thursday saw the
first skirmish of the army of boys and
girls who will fill up the schoolhouses
in this city for the next nine calendar
months. Every schoolhouse was sur
rounded early Thursday morning with
children and parents. Teachers were
on hand to greet the little folks with
a smile, and they were kept busy all
day until late hour in the afternoon
Thursday was an intensely hot day
but the children did not allow that to
stop them. They rushed right on,
eager to get back to their desks.

TENNESSEE COLORED STATE FAIR, GREENWOOD PARK
SEPTEMBER 27TH TO OCTOBER lST
G. T. WALKER, FOR PRESIDENT.
EMINENT DIVINE FROM GEORGIA WILL
POSSIBLY BE ELECTED PRESIDENT or
NATIONAL BAPTIST CONVENTION IN
NEW ORLEANS.

Augusta, Ga.-When the announce.
ment was made several months ago
that DR.. Charles T. Walker, of this
city, was a candidate for the presi-
1ency of the National Baptist Con
vention, commotion was created and
1t was at once whispered around the
entire United STATES among the lead
ers that his election would be GER
tainty This argument is more fully
substantiated by several facts which,
when looked at properly, mean his
unanimous election, He is one Of ths
most eloquent speakers and forceful
debaters in the United States, and
halls from a state that is overwhelmly
Baptist. He is the peoples ideal, and
has the ability to organize. He knows
what the people want, need and must
Lave.
The strongest thing in favor of his
unanimous election is the fact that
DR.. Morris, who has served for more
than sixteen years as president of the
Convention, has said emphatically
that under no condition would he ac-
cept the presidency If there were an
other candidate for the position, that
it would have to be acclamation or
not at all. 1t is understood that Dr..
Walker has notified DIR. Morris that he
is candidate for the presidency and
has asked him for his support.
The delegates from Georgia are en-
thusiastic for DR.. Walker. 1t is said
that when the name of DR.. G. T.
Walker is presented at New Orleans
that DR.. Norris will decline to stand
for reelection, and that when Dr.
Walker is put in nomination by his
home state, it will be seconded by
nearly every state in the Union.-The

With the exodus of all the big Bap-
lists from Nashville, to New Orleans.
the question is being asked how many
of the official boards will remain in
Nashville after the convention ad-
lourns. Nashville has long held the
distinction of being the headquarters
of five out of the eight boards now op-
Grated under the National Baptist
Convention namely: The Educational
Board Rev. S. E. Griggs, Secretary:
The National Baptist Union Publish
ing Committee, j. Thomas Turner,
Secretary; Baptist Young Peoples
Union Board, Rev. e. w. D. Isaac,
Secretary; The Home Mission Board.
Rev. R. H. Boyd, Secretary and the
National Baptist Publishing Board r.
H. Boyd, Secretary. The question
that interests the Nashville people and
that has agitated the minds of the
Baptists is how many or these boards
will remain here after this convention
year? Some are in prosperous con-
dition, while others are said not to be
accomplishing much. It is rumored
in the city that the official organ is
likely to be moved from Nashville in
case the convention decides to main
tain one, which if true would remove
Nashville as the headquarters of the
official organ of the convention.
The Educational Board according
to those who claim to know, has prac-
tically done nothing under any of it's
secretaries. The first secretary of the
Board was the Rev. John R. Wilson,
of South Carolina, who was in his Of
flee twice during his term. Succeed
ing him was Rev. D. Abner, Jr., of Tex
as, who did not report in Nashville at
all. Succeeding Rev. Abner was the
Rev. ID. S. Klugh of New Jersey.
Following him came the late Rev. A.
N. MclEwen, who doubtless would
have opened the Theological Semina-
ry, but for the fact that he took sick
and finally died before he could open
his Office The present incumbent,
Rev. S. E. Griggs, has really done
more travelling, and possibly repre-
sented the Educational Board in more
states than any since the term Of
Professor Wilson. Nashville has
seen nothing of the purposed semina-
ry and is getting little restless.
The B, Y. I. U. Board too, is caus-
ing some speculation. as rumor still
has it that the present secretary, DR..
Isaac, will accept one or the two big
churches in Alabama 1t is not likely
according to well-informed ones, that
any efforts will be made to move the
B, Y P. u Board in case the secreta-
ry, who has held it for the past nine
years, should step out. His success
sor would no doubt be located in this
city. At any rate the outcome is to
be watched with interest by the enter
prising citizens of Nashville.

Rev. H. S. Jones, formerly princi-
pal OF the Female Seminary of Port
Gibson, Miss, but now at Sacramen-
to Cal, wrote him in the Port Glib
son Reveille when he heard they were
thinking of bringing in foreign peas
ants to till the soil The following is
a part of his letter:
California is in the hands of for
elgners, who are the sworn allies of
the liquor traffic, the white slave
trade, prize-fghting, Sabbath desecra-
ton and all kinds of lawlessness.
They are not here because they love
the country, but to make money and
indulge their vitiated appetites and
base passions.
| have learned through the col
umns of your most excellent paper
that you people of the South are or
ganizing immigration bureaus look
ing to the future cultivation of your
lands with cheap imported labor.
The Negro is best for you as la
borer. 1st, Because he can be assim-
Hated. You can by training develop
him into a fairly good law-abiding
citizen. If the South will take hold
of the Negro as a man created in
Gods image and educate him for cit
izenship, you can make a better cit
izen of him than of any man you will
be able to import from across the
seas. 2nd. Because the Negro is
very religious man and can be easily
Christianized and elevated to the
standard of Christian service. To do
this you will have to give up some
of the race prejudice that has kept
you at great distance from the Ne
gro. do not mean that you are to
lower your ideas of social equality.
but you are to look more to the NOR
ais than you have done in the past.
3rd Because he does as good work
as the average foreigner who receives
$500 to S4OO per day for hours
work.
Give your Negroes as much for
their time as you would have to give
your imported labor and take hold
of him for his moral uplift as you
would have to do by your foreign
labor, or soon be destroyed by him,
and you will have better laborer
and citizen in the Negro than in any
of the laborers that | have seen in
California
You owe your moral strides in the
South to the absence of a foreign ell
ement that you could not amalgamate.
If you had had a foreign element
equal to the Negroes in numbers, you
would never have swept the liquor
traffic from Mississippi and other
states. But for the foreigners in
California we could clean up the
state in twelve months. | love my
Southland and would save her from
what will inevitably accompany the
Importation of large numbers Of for
eigners into the country. California
has ruled the day Asiatics set foot on
her shores and is trying to rid herself
of them. Hold to your Negroes
They are the best servants in this
or any country, for the South, May
the blessings of Heaven rest upon
orr dear Southland

One of the most pleasant and beau
tiful receptions of the season was
that rendered Miss Helen Goggans by
! Miss Gertrude Carwile Thursday af-
ternoon. AS the guests arrived they
we're cordially welcomed by Mrs. Car
vile and Miss Goggans received.
When the guests had assembled,
each was presented with a booklet
and asked to draw her idea of the
groom elect, write what she consider
ed the best recipe for happiness,
and close with a telegram OF good
wishes. Upon examination of the
"artistic productions" exhibited it
was found that Miss Elizabeth Dom
mick had been most successful in Sc
curing a good effect Of the groom
elect. Misses Louise Jones, Bess
Burton, and Maude FAINT gave the
most original recipes for happiness;
in the cut Miss FAINT was successful.
Miss Burton's telegram was decided
to be the best.
While all were busily engaged in
conversation, little Miss Ella Dunn,
as a dainty fairy, entered the parlor
and 'bade Miss Goggans follow where
she led. This little fairy, scattering
! roses in her pathway, led the bride
elect into the sitting room. This room
was fairy-like in its beautiful decora-
lions of pink roses and silver cande-
labra. In the centre Of the rom was
fixed a large horseshoe and suspen-
ded from it was a pink rose covered
basket which contained many beau
tiful and useful gifts Tor the bride
elect from her girl friends present.
At the close of the afternoons
pleasure, delightful refreshments
were served the guests by Misses
Carwile, Louise Jones, and Master
John Kinard.
Mrs. Bell, of Atlanta, was the guest
of honor at a most pleasant party
