WASHINGTON MEETING.

Last Sunday thousands of our Des
Moines people were permitted to hear
DR.. Booker T. Washington under diff
ferent auspices. When he came at his
former visits there were charges Of adj
mission and last Sunday there were no
charges at all. Then again he could
speak upon any subject SO we saw him
at his best. 1t was great inspiration
to our race at this particular age and
time. 1t encourages the race to greater
possibilities, greater achievements; it
establishes more permanent confidence
of the stability and progress that the
masses of our race are making under
disadvantages among the white race,
who are inclined to be fair and reason
able and patient with our race. Again
this meeting united all the churches into
a union never before heard Of and may
never again be attempted; yet it was
good to see us together for once. DR..
Washington was greatly and most hap
PLY surprised at such large greeting
of our people and when he reached Mad
ison, Wis, the next day sent to me the
following telegram which explains it.
self:
Madison, Wis, Mar. 13, 1911.
Mr.. J.. l.. Thompson, Care Iowa State
Bystander, Des Moines, Iowa.
Before leaving Des Moines meant
to let you all know how very grateful
I am to your people in Des Moines for
the great kindness which they showered
upon me while there. I not only want
to thank them through you for what
they did for me but to say that I was
greatly pleased at the many evidences
of progress on the part of our race since
I was last in the city.
