Hale Expects Deficit


Senator Hale said there was likely 10
be a deficit IN the Treasury At the end OF
the fiscal year He made the prediction
that within ten years naval appropria-
tons would aggregate a75.OlO.Oo0 annu-
ally. The Senator from Maine also ex-
pressed the opinion that the battle ships
planned in the present bill will cost
SlS000.000
Senator Beverage said the possession
OF two more battle ships by this country
would have prevented the war with spain.
Two battle ships at the time. he de-
clared. would have only cost Sl5.O00.O 900.
Senator Hale was not disposed 70 accept
the Senator from Indiana as an authority
on matters pertaining TO warfare. and
referred to the book that Beveridge wrote
with reference TO the Manchurian stu
alton prior to the Russo-Japanese war.
The Senate agreed 10 an Amendments
by Senator Depew that one Of the battle
ships should be constructed in a govern
ment navy yard. New amendments were

Il would lop of 100000 from the

Clay. 1t IS admitted that our navy Is
the second best IN the world at the
present time. and we can easily affect
this saving in naval appropriations. 7
think we have gone too far In the con-
struction Of public buildings. I was told
a few days ago that Congress has erected
a $4,000 public building in a town where
the Post-ofGce Department was paving
rent q only $50 a year. The salary %
the jaHitor alone was $500 a year in the
new building"
Senator GalIinger expressed the opinion
that Senator Aldrich was inducing in
oratory at the expense Of the facts when
be declared that 100000 could he
saved annually in government expondi-
lures. The New Hampshire Senator. ex-
pressed the opinion that no such saving
could be expected. and remarked that
Senator Aldrich had failed to give spec!-
fcauons.

IT IS THE NEW EMANCIPATION PROCLAMATION

ING COMPANY is ENTIRELY NEGRO.
Not one dollar of white capital will be az
Cepted in exchange for its securities.
There is not one dollar of Promotion Stock
consequently there is no watered stock.
Every holder of stock from the President
down must pay at LEAST $1,000 per share foE
every share of stock allotted to him.
This does not mean that the price OF stock
will REMAIN at $1,000 per share. 1t is $1,000
NOW 1t will advance in price far beyond
$1,000, just as railroad and public utility stock
goes to several times par. So will the Lincoln
Memorial Building Companys stock go to
several times its present value.
This means that a share of stock costing
$1,000 NOW will be worth $4,000 when stock
goes to four times par. Estimates show that
the Company earnings will be 20 per cent, and
that is four times par, with every dollar in
vested in Real Estate. THE BEST in the city
of Washington, where values are as firmly hxed
as the Rock of Gibraltar.
This does not mean that the price OF stock
will remain at $1,000 per share. 1t IS $1,000
NOW. If the Company, as il IS estimated.

worth $4,000 If it pays 90 per cent, single
share of $1,000 stock will be worth $1,000 Just

WASHINGTON IS THE SEAT OF OUR

The eyes of the world are on Washington
One-third of Washington's population is

If all the Negroes in Washington were colon
ICED in one place they would make city larger
than Richmond, Virginia.
There are seven theatres IN Washington,
Supported by white population of 24I,923-
and few foolish Negroes willing to be colon
ICED in the galleries, the only place to which the
Negro is admitted.
THERE IS NOT A SINGLE FIRST
CLASS OFFICE BUILDING in the city of
Washington. where colored professional or
business man woman, and there are hun
dreds of them in the National Capital, can OBJ
tain business quarters.
JUST THINK OF IT! 100000 enterprising,

dice, swept completely out of the business dis
trict of Washington; 100000 genteel, prosper

every form of theatrical entertainment unless
willing to submit to the most humiliating con-
ditions.
Every cOlored man and woman IN WASH
iRgton.
Every colored man and woman VISITING
Washington
Every colored man and woman in America,
familiar with the true state of the Negro In
Washington, realizes that theatre, store, and
Office building, operated by the Negroes for the
Negroes, is A NECESSITY.
The welfare of the race demands it.
The self-respect of the race demands it.
Any enterprise resting its hope of success
upon a NECESSITY is bound to be sue
CESS
A THEATRE AND OFFICE BUILDING
IN THE CITY OF WASHINGTON, built by
Negroes, for the use of Negroes, is NECES-
SITY
Appreciating to the utmost that fact
THE LINCOLN MEMORIAL BUILDING
COMPANY proposes to erect In the Central
Business District of the city of Washington a
magnificent theatre. seating capacity $500, and
a store and Office building of splendid proper
don, adequate IN every respect TO meet the re-
qurements of prosperous professional and busi-
ness men.
The enterprise is exceptional in tive respects:
Rirst-It is absolutely safe.

Features that must appeal to every man or

are such man or woman or you would not

ING COMPANY has surveyed the field care
fully, and it KNOWS that hundreds of tenants

that 10000 people are anxious to patronize

IT KNOWS ALL THIS AND IT IN
VITES YOU TO PARTICIPATE in an en-
terprise ABSOLUTELY DEVOID OF RISK,
where every dollar will be invested in the best
of Washington Real Estate, that increases IN
value annually at the rate OF SIS per cent
nearly DOUBLE bank interest.
Even that is good enough for most people,
but the LINCOLN MEMORIAL BUILDING
COMPANY will do better than that. 1t will
have offices and stores and lodge rooms, which
will earn, on a conservative estimate, at least
S23,2oo per year. Equal to S 9-1o per cent per
annum.
The Washington bee., 1910-01-01

It will also have theatre. which, if patron
lied at prices ranging from 10 to so cents, by
only per cent of the total colored population
of the city of Washington, will enable the Com
pany to pay IS per cent on its total Capitaliza-
ton. Equal in all to 90 o-Io per cent to which
may be added the land value increase of 558
per cent.
Now, all tbs is Conservatively Estimated.

AIR COMPRESSOR
FOR west end IS
ON THE GROUND
SHOULD BE INSTALLED AND IN
OPERATION AT END OF
THE WEEK.

Within week it is expected
that the new air compressor for the
West End mine will be in operation
The compressor arrived at the de-
pot Tuesday and yesterday was de-
liyered to the mine. The founda-
ton has already been completed
and all that remains at the present
time is to install the machinery and
make the necessary connections.
When this is done there will be
sufficient power to operate all the
machine drills required, and the
contract, now in force with the Mac
Namara will be terminated.
General Manager S. H. Brady, who
departed Tuesday for Denver, will
contract for all the necessary equip
ment required for the new ore
washer and sorter, ordered some
time ago. His visit will probably
require number of days to make
all the necessary purchases, such
as We're not contained in the orr
