PLATFORMS MANY FEATURES
Administrations of President Taft and
Fort Heartily Approved.


Fort Heartily Approved.
The platform as adopted follows:
The Republican party, in convention
assembled, heartily approves the ad-
ministration Of President William FL.
Taft, and we affirm our loyalty to the
president, who has brought to the dis
charge of the duties of his great office
the highest ability and Hottest patriot
ism.
We commend to the people of this
state the results of the labors Of the
congress just adjourned, which has
passed more measures which contrib
ute to the benefit and development of
the country than any other congress
since the organization of the republic.
We especially commend the tariff.
The tariff question involves three great
principles-the development Of Ameri-
can industries and the protection of
American labor, a revenue to provide
for the expenses Of the government
aud the making of the United States
Independent as against the world for
the provision Of everything that enters
into the question OF national defense.
The tariff law Of the last congress pro-
vides for all these In ample way, and
as one of the immediate results It has
changed a deficit of $4,000, 900 into a
surplus Of S2s,0oo 900.
We indorse the action Of President
Taft and a Republican congress In pro
Viding an expert and impartial perma-
nent tariff board to investigate tariff
schedules with a view to a just correc-
ton Of any inequalities and to relieve
the country from political tariff agita-
ton so disastrous to prosperity.
We heartily indorse the administra-
ton of Governor John Franklin Fort
and approve the wise. progressive and
successful legislation enacted by the
Republican legislatures during the
term of his office.
True to Party Pledges.
True to the pledge of three years
ago, the Republican party has enacted
into law a sane and effective public
utilities statute for the proper regula-
ton Of Quasipublic corporations. 1t is
a uISdSuIC Va ESbuidliOut nv VI duullu-
istration or con1scation. 1t confers
wide powers 1t has been a~pprovingly
referred to by the press Of the country
as being the best exponent of this class
of legislation thus far developed. The
expense of the commission created by
it Is moderate and in keeping with the
traditions Of the state in reference to
such matters. The new commission
has begun It's labors and is working
smoothly and effectively.
We favor a statute giving the com
mission the power to fix just and rea-
sonable rates for service rendered.
We approve the policy of conserVa-
ton announced by the president, and
we believe in so far as 1t Is possible
the principles which govern that pol
icy for the administration Of the nation
should apply to the state.
We believe In the principle that an
industry ought to bear the cost of per-
sonal injuries sustained in the bust
ness. A Republican legislature and
governor placed the first employers
liability law on the statute books of
New Jersey, and they have also pro-
vided for additional legislation on this
subject by the creation of an active
and efficient commission 70 report hy

GIRL HAMMERS TORPEDO WITH
AN AXE.

Thought 1t Was a Dime Bank
Police Patrol Makes Record Run.
While hammering with an ak upon
a railroad torpedo, loaded with dyna-
mite, which she thought to be a dime
bank, Daisy Puryear, a twelve-year-old
girl living at 402 Fifth avenue, South,
had her left hand badly lacerated.
The torpedo was heavily charged and
the explosion caused some excitement
in the neighborhood for a short time.
Someone sent in a report to the po-
lice station that shooting had taken
place, and the patrol wagon, with
Driver Rainey at the helm, made a
record-breaking run to the scene. The
little girls hand was treated by DR..
H. T. Noel. and it is thought that she
will lose one or two other fingers as a
result of her misfortune. The torpe-
do might we'll be taken for a small
bank, being about the same size. 1t is
used as a signal by the railroads, one
or two being placed on the track to
signal the engineer in case of an emer-
gency. 1t was found in a vacant room
next door to the girls home, having
been left there by the former occu-
pants. The girl had a narrow escape
with her life.

The Normal meetings Of teachers

pointment of the Superintendent prom
Uses 10 be unusually interesting and
profitable this year. A complete ped
agogical program has been made out
for teachers of every grade and they
will have to study books on teaching
and school management and recite
lessons to their leaders just like pu-
pills. A fine course has been ar
ranged, as a perusal of the texts to
be used will show. For High School
teachers instructed by Prof. Smith
Seeley's History Of Education,
whcih is a study of the educational
systems of the world. For Grammar

The Primary grades, lib to "a, will

part of the plans of n principal,
which is only an index of what the
others are doing. They are all bpsy
planning for the success of their
schools, and if they realize their ex-
pectations Nashville will receive an
educational uplift that will be felt
throughout the entire city.

NEW POSITION.
Continued from Page ~

able that the Negro schools Would TO-
day have the benefit of that training.
The opinion is freely expressed that
the music, writing and drawing in the
colored schools is not up to the high
standard it was a few years ago. But
it is believed that a little well-direct-
ed effort on the part of a few interest
ed men of the race might get this
position re-established. One of the
Work brothers would dignity the
place and do the work with perfect
satisfaction to all.
In another column of this issue
can be found all the official meetings
ordered by the superintendent for
the opening week Of school. Pr1n-
cipals and teachers will meet in their
old places Monday morning, Septem-
ber 5th at 8 o'clock. At 3 p. m. OF
the same day, the Principals will
meet the superintendent for opening
instructions. Grammar school pupils
entitled to examination will meet their
teachers at Q a. m. Tuesday. New pupils
will be examined and classified We'd
nesday at 8 p. m. All grammar school
children and the Pearl High School
pupils will assemble at their old
buildings at 8 o'clock Thursday morn
ing for organization, assignment OF
lessons and book lists. Colored teach
ers will meet Saturday morning at
the Pearl High School at IL a. m.
While it cannot be definitely known
until Thursday morning just what
the enrolment for the first day Will
be, indications point to a larger num-
Der than V e before. The school
census shows a large increase in the
scholastic population and no DOUBT
all the schools will be crowded!
DIR. F. G. Smith, who has been at
the head of the High School for four
teen years, is full of new plans that
he wants to see mature and bring
forth good fruit. One is his propo-
sition that the teachers take some
graduate Of the High School, en-
dorsed by the High School faculty,
and send him through college at any
one of the three colleges. The High
School Alumni will aid in this work.
Another is to make arrangement to
launch a High School Magazine or
journal, edited and managed by the
High School pupils under his direc-
ton. He is also trying to get a new
and extra teacher in the High
School, as the number of pupils is
now large enough to justify this ad
dition. He earnestly requests al
parents to send their children back tt
Pearl on the first day and all old pu
pills who have been out of school fol
some time, he wants them to return
and make the number still larger, ant
thus increase the urgency for a new
teacher. AS President Of the Col
ored Principals Association, d.
Smith, has laid large plans for thi
years work. The first thing to b
undertaken will be an ~educationa
rally or campaign among the colore
people at the various schools an
churches in the city. The city wi
be divided into sections and each prll
cipal will be assigned to a certain SCI
ton, to visit the churches, meet tn
people and address the Sunda,
schools, Mass-meetings will be hel
in various parts of the city and lie
lures given on educational matters.

Tells of National Negro Work Done
by Business League, of Hartford,

Special to the Globe.
Hartford, Conn, August 25.-J. G.
Napier, of Nashville, Tenn, who, with
his wife and daughter, has been Wis
iting his nephew, r. A. Lawson, of
this city, in an interview by "The
Courant" for a few minutes yesterday
afternoon said he had been attend
ing the Eleventh Annual Session of
the National Negro Business League
tat was recently held in New York,
and he is filled with enthusiasm for
the work that the league has already
done and is doing for the colored peo-
pie in the South.
Mr.. Napier is the cashier of the One
Cent Savings Bank, of Nashville, an
institution that has resources of over
$62, 900. This is me of four colored
banks in Tennessee, all of which, ac-
cording to Mr.. Napier, have resulted
from the activities Of the Colored
Mems League.
This league, he said, has weaned the
Icolored mar from his hunger for Of
flee, and has made him feel that his
future salvation and prosperity lie
along lines Of commercial activity
When the league was founded there
were scarcely any commercial institu
lions in the South that were conducted
by colored men. Now there are fifty
seven Negro banks, 1000 drug stores
and 10000 stores of various kinds
such as grocery, boot and shoe stores
It would astonish the average North
erner, said Mr.. Napier, to see the wa,
!, in which the Negro of the South

mination to succeed that makes hill
accomplish great things.
In speaking of the bank of whic
ne is cashier, Mr.. Napier said that tn
daily deposits ranged from $500
$1,000. The bank business of II
bank is conducted on a thorough
sound banking business lines. \
n money is loaned without the best
