SUCCESSFUL NEGROES MEET
At Little Rock and Tomorrow Will
Hear of All Colored Town of Boley.

Little Rock, Ark, Aug. 16.-Be-
tween 700 and 500 delegates,
among whom are scores Of col
ored men who have made success
in commercial enterprises and others
who represent prosperous towns con-
trolled entirely by negroes, are at
tending the twelfth annual meeting
of the National Negro Business
League, which was opened in this
city today Booker T. Washington
is the president of the league, the
object of which is to inform the
world of the progress the negro is
making in business and to stimulate
local business enterprises among the
members of the race. The present
meeting will continue its sessions I'M
til Saturday. The progress being
made by the negroes of Oklahoma has
induced the officers Of the league to
set aside tomorrow morning as Ok
lahoma Day, when delegates from
that state will tell of the growth and
prosperity of the town of Boley,
which is inhabitated and controlled
entirely by negroes. One of the evil
dences of the towns prosperity is
found in the fact that it has just in
stalled a $35,00O light and power
plant.

UNCLE SAM AFTER DUMAS
Will Wait Until After Trial Here and
if Warranted Proceed Against
the Doctor.
CASE WOULD GO TO FERGUS

Fergus Falls, Mimi, Aug. 10
The attitude of the federal govern
ment regarding the case of Mayor
Dumas and his associates who are
awaiting trial on burglary charges in
the state courts is stated here to be
warning attitude, the action to be
taken depending on the outcome of
the trials.
The Puposky burglary, in which
Dumas alleged associates were trap
ped, was postoffice as we'll as the
burglary Of a store, and consequent
ly they are liable under the federal
laws as well as under the state laws.
No action is to be taken by the
United States officials until after the
trials in the state courts.
In case these trials should result
in acquittals resulting from a lack
of evidence the case will be dropped.
Should they result in convictions and
proper sentences, the federal govern
ment will be satisfied and will let
matters rest.
On the other hand, if strong evil
dence is presented and a verdict of
acquittal is secured as result of To-
cal influences, the accused will be re-
arrested under the federal statutes
and will then be brought to this city
and tried in the United States court
here.

FARES CUT BELOW 2-CENT RATE
Railroads Announce Reductions for
the Minnesota State Fair.

A passenger rate of one fare for
the round trip on all roads excepting
the Great Northern, Northern Pacific
and 500 Line during state fair week
has been agreed upon by the Western
Passenger association, according to
A. B. Cults, general passenger agent
of the Minneapolis and st. Louis road,
who has returned to Minneapolis
from meeting in Chicago. It was
{ cided at that meeting to make the
rate good from all points in Mime
sofa and in other states within $50
miles of the Twin Cities. This will
make the rate lower than under the
2-cent fare law. Passenger agents of
the Great Northern, Northern Pacific
and 500 Line have not announced
what rates they will grant. Accord
ing to Mr.. Cults, indications are that
travel to Minneapolis during fair
week will be large.

More unpleasantness has developed
in the State Capitol over these charg-

has been drawn from some source

grab the negro and string him up

victim to permit the law to take its

Makes $1,000 Pickup on Dogs.

By way of illustration as to what
economies may be accomplished un-
der the commission plan, the Keokuk
annual report, copy which was sent
to Mr. Roe, contains the following
The payment of the various Ii
censes due the city for special priv
ileges, especially dog license, had, at
the beginning Of 1910, been neg
lected to a large extent. The pres
ent administration has tried to es-
tablish a custom Of paying for all
such licenses in advance, and has
practically succeeded.
The dog license is given merely
as an example of this success. The
amount collected in 1909 was
$126.95, while the amount collected
in 1910 was $1,323.35."
In his report on the commission
plan for his first year in office, Mayor
Elder says:
Begins in Debt; Now Clear.
We have divided the city's
money into funds, as required by
the State law, and this Report
shows the Receipts and EXpendi-
lures of the city's funds in each
account.
We started our term of Office
ignorant of the circumstances
under which we would work.
But, aided by your patriotic spir-
it, we were enabled to carry
through as much public improve
ment as former years, and the
City of Keokuk, for the first year
in it's history, did not borrow
money to defray it's current eX-
penses.
Indebtedness Wiped Out.
AS shown by the financial
summary, on April 18th, 1910,
the city had floating indebted
ness of over $22,50O. On April
list, 1911, at the end of the ifs
cal year, it had to it's credit over
$4,000. The receipts of the city
have been practically the same
as in former years, and this
gain was made by eliminating
useless expenditures.
