FIs is one of the directors Of the
One Cent Savings Bank established
and conducted by j. c.. Napier and
yet his race pride and love has never
gone Far enough to have him insist
upon depositing the Pythian money
IN the bank Of which he himself was
q director. Instead the Pythians of
Tennessee have kept their money in
the white bank of one Of the smaller
cities of the State and thus exposed
the order to the attack Of white
Tennessee lawyers who see good
chance to open up new business
and pick up some Of the loose money
Of the Pythians.
The Negro secret orders ought to
inaugurate some banking system
that will place the enormous amount
Of money they gather in the keeping
Of the race. Until they put them
|selves to the task of taking over
their own banking business, they
may expect trouble Of some nature
from "quack" white lawyers.
T. In addition to the banking system,
there is marked disposition on
the part Of many editors of the off,
cial organs Of both the Pythians and
lOdd Fellows to expose the financial
condition of the Negro orders
Through the columns of their papers.

Washington, D. c., March 9.-During
the past week the political skies have
cleared to an amazing degree in this
"neck-O- the woods" Confidence in the
disposition of the grand old party" to
do the fright thing by the Negro has
crowded doubt and suspicion to the
rear. Order has come out Of chaos, and
the coiored citizens feel happier to-day
than they have felt since the Inaugural
ton Of President Taft two years ago.
Last Tuesday. as all know from the
press dispatches, the name Of William
Henry Lewis, Of Boston, was sent to
the Senate for the office Of Assistant
Attorney of the United States
On the following day the name Of Jas
G. Napier, Of Tennessee, went in fC'
Register of the Treasury Although
long expected, the country was fairly
electrified over this redemption Of the
administrations promises, and all the
weary uncertainty that had been ex-
Derienced by the Negro in the land was
forgotten in the acclaim over the final
result. The appointments are, in ev-
cry way, satisfactory to the rank and
file Of the race. Both Mr.. Lewis and
Mr.. Napier have been long in the pub
lie eve. They need no Introduction to
the American people. Their services
to the party and to their people have
been of the most valuable character
Both deserved promotion. and it is q
matter of qualification that each Sc
cured just what he wanted. The work
Of the Assistant Attorney General Is
in line with the brilliant legal attain
ments Of Mr.. Lewis, and his training
in the office Of Assistant District At
torney at Boston will stand him in
good stead when he takes up the reins
in Mr.. Understands great Bureau of
Law. There Is an especial fitness in
bringing to the Treasury Department
q man Of Mr.. Napier's ample expert
ence as banker and expert financier
where he will daily give authority for
the issuing Of the paper currency and
bonded securities Of the most pro-
nounced government under the sun. 1t
cannot be doubted therefore. that in
their respective places Of honor and re-
spOnsibility, both Mr.. Lewis and Mr..
Napier will give an excellent account
Of themselves. President Taft is being
overwhelmed with letters thanking him
for this splendid recognition of the ca
pacity Of the Negro to serve in the
highest places within the gift Of the
American Republic.
