DIR. MASON AT MEHARRY.

The Meharry Auditorium, on Fri
day evening, the 18th, inst, was the
scene of a most splendid spectacle:
1t had been previously announced that
DR.. M. c. B. Mason, Secretary OF the
Freedman's Aid Society, would adj
dress the delegates of the M. u.
Church Conference, and the public
had been invited. The hour prior TO
the opening of the exercises was
o'clock, but at 6:45 the people begun
to repair to the great ediflce and
when the appointed hour arrived the
building was crowded: every seat was
occupied and chairs were necessarily
placed along the aisles to the great
relief of many. The first speaker of
the evening was DR. Bennett, Inspec-
tor of the schools of the Freedman's
Aid Society. The Doctor reported on
the work and development of the
schools with which he is connected,
and urged the necessity of due prep
aration for the various professions
represented among the celored peO-
pie.
DIR. Thomas, of Atlanta, Ca, was
entrusted with the introduction of
DR.. M. c. B. Mason. The latter gen
tleman, on rising before the audi
ence was cheered vociferously. He
spoke of the work that is being done
by the churches of the Freedman's
Aid Society for the improvement of
the conditions of the Negro race,
and for aiding in the solving of the
race problem. In his further dis
QUESTIONS he remarked on the neces-
sity of ethical and moral training for
the Negro, declaring this to be the
only force that can possibly keep the
races on the basis of moral friend
ship and helpfulness. The Doctor
then congratulated the North OH its
generous contributions for the relief
of the necessities of the South.
The meeting was closed at 10
O'Clock and the audience regretted
that the speaker had brought his ad-
dress to an end.
The election of officers of the Sen
ior Medical Glass was held at the
Auditorium on Tuesday afternoon,
the 18th, inst, at l o'clock. The
class he'd been very active during the
first two weeks in their selection for
the various offices and great was the
anxiety as to the result. The ut
most order prevailed throughout the
entire election period, and at 2:30 p.
m. the official return showed the fol
lowing: G. w. Furlow, President;
J. T. Smith, President; r. G.
Buckner, Secretary; A. G. Terrence,
Assistant Secretary; B. A. Everett,
Treasurer; H. d. Canady, Clinical
Secretary.

FRIDAY, OCTOBER 20, 1911.
Justice Harlan.

Justice J0hn MarSnall Harlan, AS
sociate Justice of the United States
Supreme Court, died in Washington
Saturday. Justice Harlan was born
in Boyle County, Kentucky, June /,
1893, and was commissioned an AS
sociate Justice of the Supreme Court
of the United States, November 20,
1877. Justice Harlan was a unique
character He was courageous and
never failed to stand up for what he
believed to be right On several oc-
casions cases have come up before
the Supreme Court relative to the
Negro, that appeared to all sane men
to be discriminatory 1t is well
known to the American people how
a majority of the Supreme Court
members have decided these cases,
but Justice Harlan was invariably
found on the minority side. If he be-
lieved an injustice had been done,
he would say so regardless of who
it affected. He did not compromise
with wrong because the question of
veracity happened to be between
white and black man. He did not
make decisions in that way, but based
his opinion on justice. If there were
two of his associates standing with
him, all right and well; if there was
one, it was the same to Judge Har-
Ian; if he had to stand alone, he did
so without a culver, because he
felt that with right on his side he
was stronger than all of the other
members of the Supreme Court com
bined.
The name of John Marshall Harlan
will live forever in the hearts of
the American Negroes, not because
they looked upon him as a sympa-
thizer and friend because of their
peculiar surroundings, but because he
had the courage to stand up for the
right. When the American Negroes
think of the Supreme Court of the
United States now, they will not
feel that there is at least one man on
the bench who will fight their cause.
They know what to expect from a
majority of the remaining Justices,
and so it will have a tendency to
drive the Negroes to another shelter;
to look for Justice from some other
source. He will not slacken his
traces because of the loss of this
staunch friend, but will be more de
termined than ever to fight his bat
ties and to contend for what he be-
lieves to be the right. He knows
that right has always triumphed and
he has faith in his Creator to be-
lieve that in some way justice will
cone to the much abused and con
stantly discouraged black man in
America They honor Justice Harlan
for what he has done for them
They will always remember him as
a friend of justice and champion
Of the cause of the weak.

ganlzaOlOn, need OF understanding
on the rart of the leaders. The Ne
groes of Nashville must be given
credit for doing remarkably well in
their disorganized state, but who
knows when an occasion will arise
that will require a better understand
ing and a more concerted action?
Does not this suggest need of or
ganization?
The complaint is often made about
Negro women being allowed to fire.,
ouent saloons and dives, and that the
policemen of the city pay no attention
to it, but there seems to be no
Thought of the fact that the Negro
men of the city have never taken
any definite step to have this prac-
tice broken up. AS little as is
thought of it, it is true nevertheless,
that every true citizen IN this city
has a deal to do to look after him
self and his own interests. The
white people have their troubles 1t
is not apparent to all Negroes that
they do but they have numerous con-
ditions to contend with. They are
kept busy every day in the year in
their efforts to strengthen the weak
places among their people and to
bring them up to a respectable gen.
eral average, and if the Negroes
needs are looked after the Negro
men will have to do it.
Conditions are such in the South
that the social, moral and religious
affairs of the black and white peo-
pie are kept separate This being
true, it looks out of place when white
men attempt to do this work among
colored people. In fact, Negroes be-
come indignant when white people
make themselves too conspicuous
around them. They do not like it,
they do not believe there is any sim
cerity in it, therefore this work, If done
at all, must be done by the Negroes
themselves. If the moral standard
of our people is to be lifted the think
ing people must get together and
map out plans whereby such can be
accomplished No one can afford to
say they are not concerned, neither
can they place themselves in an at
titude that will separate them from
the influence that is made on the
world by the thoughtless and immo-
raj element.
All children attend the same pub
lie schools, and it is conceded that
one bad child can influence ten
good children. 1t is much easier for
one bad boy to get ten good boys
into mischief than it is for ten good
boys to keep one out So every
mother and every father should feel
that it is a part of their duty to
help make their neighbours boy or
their neighbor's girl the best they
can. Time will not allow the work
ers for the moral uplift to reform
those people who are set in their
ways and who have passed the age
in life where the mind can be shaped
The hope is in the children and I'M
less they can be gotten hold of the
effort will be futile Such work will
require systematic organization and
that is woefully lacking in our city
What is true of the moral life is also
so true of the religious and social
life of our people. 1t is high time
our ministers and our teachers, and
all who are interested in the gen.
eral uplift of the people were get
ting together on these propositions.
It can not be done in a day, but it
never will be done unless an effort
is made.
