Postage Rates.

The bill pending in Congress to in
crease the rate of postage in second
class matter from one to four cents
per pound is meeting with strong OPP
position by all publishers. The bill
is the most drastic that has been
before the Congress for many years.
lit was drawn under the direction of
the Postmaster General, Mr. Hitch
cock, and with the sanction of Pres1-
dent Taft. 1t is a case of the pub
fishers of the country against the Of
fetal of the postofice department.
Mr.. Hitchcock claims that the big
magazines of the country are respon-
sible fo- the deficit of the postoffice
department, but the publishers cite
that were it not for them the postal
receipts would drop away below what
they are now. That there is truth
in this claim is evident to the most
casual observer. There are ve-y
few people who do not order some
thing during the year by mail, and
there are fewer still who do not at
some time write several letters in
quiring about something they see ad-
verified in magazine or newspaper.
If this bill goes into effect it will
do more to stagnate business than
anything that can possibly come upon
the nation, The energy and thrift
of the American people are kept alive
throug hthe newspaper and the
magazine. 1t would be absolute
ly impossible for the people to
know of the general progress that
is being made by the nation other
than through the knowledge gained
of men and things as told of and
advertised in the newspapers and the
magazines. Again, if it were posi-
BILE for drummers to get into every
community Win Jnelf wares the cost
for travel would be hundred times
more than it costs to send a letter
through the mail.
No set Of publishers would suffer
under this proposed rate as much as
the Negro magazine publishers, all
Of whom nublish Cundav-schooI unaoa-
zines and church papers. These pub
fishers are endeavoring to enlighten
a benighted people, the poor and de-
spised Negro of all would they ex-
perience great losses on their mag
zines, and if this new rate goes into
effect the publishers win be COM
PEELED to increase the prices Of their

composed entirely of student girls,

Normal School Question Settled.

Normal School Question Settled.
After long fight Davidson County
has at last settled the Normal School
question. Last Saturday the court
met and thrashed out the matter to
a finish, so now nothing is in the
way of speedy erection of the build
ing and preparation for the open
ing of this institution at the earliest
date possible. The Negro youth of
Tennessee are waiting for the gates
to be thrown open that they may
come into their own.
The decision of the County Court
to make it possible for the college
to be located in Davidson County is
the completion of the second round
only of this battle. We now should
turn attention to the next round,
which is the proper beginning of the
Normal. Every citizen in the state
should celia part of this RESPONSE
bility to look to the welfare of this
state school 1t should be as much
concern to the people in Bristol and
Memphis as it is to the people in
1t is an institution for all
the people and should be so consid-
cred.

will have to do without Sunday-school

of which they get Bible instruction.
Mr.. Hitchcock's bill may be drawn
in way to sound good to him and
to President Taft, but to the bust

killing the hen that is laying golden

The bank business is still on the
flourish among our business men. Sad
is it to think that all of our cities
boast their Negro banks except around
Huntsville. We are hoping that this
year will bring new ideas and more
progress among our people. What we
want here in the great Spring City
is an organized effort among the
strongest men. When this is done
banks and everything else that we
want, will come our way.
Go about your business, whether it
rains or whether it shines. When the
dark days come and the lazy man is
begging for a crust of bread, you can
sit down and take life easy.-Negro
