The Negro Business League Of Birm-
ingham, Alabama, has a rare oppor'
tunity to render valuable and sub
statnial service to the members of the
race In that community by urging the
practice Of frugality, in Strengthening
the businesses already established and
in the encouraging the starting Of new
ones, where there is a prospect Of sup
port and success.
This opportunity is present by reason
of the fact that over one million (s1,.
OO0, OOO) dollars every month is paid
to Negro. wage earners in the mines
the mills and factories in that dis.
tricf.
The greater portion Of this vast sum
Of money is spent with the various
merchants Of the city.
II follows then that, if fair POr-
ton Of these peoples trade does not
20 to the Negro merchant, the white
man cannot be justly held response

Tentative efforts will probably be
made to arrange for "National Ne
gro Business League Special" for the
eleventh annual meeting in Little
Rock, Arkansas, August 1918.
The plan is to have the business
men from the cities in the East to
gather at Baltimore, staring out in
special PuIlmans from that point, they
could proceed West to Pittsburg,
Cleveland, Chicago, then to st. Louis,
finally reaching their destination Little
Rock.
Delegates from cities nearby could
join 'the special" at these principal
places.
The Cleveland Journal makes the
above practical suggestion, which is
at least worthy of consideration.

Jail Delivery At Bison.

Saturday evening some time
between 600 and 9:30, George
Dively and Andrew Parker,
prisoners in Sheriff Anderson 5
charge succeeded in breaking
out of the Perkins county jail
and making their escape.
Sheriff Anderson was at Lem
mon at the time and Immediately
instituted a hunt for the fugitiy
es. which however thus far had
been without avail. DiyeIy, who
was known as a desperate char
acter of considerable cunning
and resource, was at the time of
breaking out we'll provided With
money. and will doubtless use
this well, in putting distance be-
tween himself and the authorit-
les of Perkins county. He is
wanted for numerous lists of
thefts.
The prisoners had been in
charge of Deputy Ellefson, who
about 600 p. m had gone to his
supper, locking the jail. When
at $50 he returned, he found
! the Jail empty and the cells pretty
badly wrecked. The prisoners
had left a couple of knives and
piece Of gas pipe, ostensibly to
show how they had managed to
saw iron bars and pry off doors,
but it is thought that they had
help from outside. Andrew Par
ker's wife, who had visited her
husband almost daily is held or
suspicion to have assisted the
men in escaping.
Dively is about 40 years old,

meeting, there being an eXcell-

subjects were discussed relative
to the many objects before the
club. A committee was appoint
ed to inquire into the matter of
sprinkling Main street with road
oil. 1t was also urgently shown
that the work of cleaning up the
city will have to be taken up
Systematically by all citizens and
property holders. Mr.. Heinrich,
speaking for the officers Of the
South Dakota Travelling Mems
association presented a review of
what had been done and what
was to be done in connection
with the coming convention of
! the commercial travellers, to be
held here June I'd and Sd.
An important matter was
touched upon, when it was pro-
posed to reduce the member
ship fees from $40 to so. In
this connection a committee was
appointed to solicit for member
ships under this proviso, and If
enough join the measure will
probably be passed at the next
meeting.

Washington, July 16.-Postmaster
General Hitchcock today designated
the main postoffiees in New York,
Chicago. Boston and st, Louis as pos
tai savings repositories. They Will
begin to receive deposits on August l..
Having installed successfully more
than Il thousand postal savings banks
in second class postorfices Mr.. Hitch
ccock decided to extend it to some OF
the first-class offices. The four cities
were named because of their great
population and commercial proml-
nence and because in each one is To-
Gated a United States sub-treasury,
which will facilitate the heavy banking
business that is likely to result from
postal savings transactions.
As in the smaller cities the system
probably will be popular with foreign
born residents, many of whom now
send their surplus savings to thelr
home countries. From New YORK
city alone last year the money orders
sent abroad by foreign born residents
aggregated $g,000,000.
