LARGEST sassafraa Tree.

A sassafras tree is the principal in
Atlanta, Georgia's. new bid for fame
The largest sassafras tree in the
world, says the department Of agricul-
ture. To most people the name sassa.
fras is associated in their minds with
the picture of low, stunted bush lux
uriantly foliaged. from the roots of
which their grandmothers made tea
to "cure spring fever" and other Ills
of that nature. A sassafras tree has
been thing unknown. In the yard
of the First Methodist church of At
lanta the sassafras tree stands, passed
by thousands each day. The tree, ac-
cording to experts Of the agricultural
department, is more than 100 years
old. 1t is 71a feet In circumference,
SO feet high and has q spread Of more
than 40 feet.

SEEKS "AT COST" STORES
Bill introduced for the Establishment
Of Chain of Stores for
Federal Employees.

Government-owned d epar m |
stores in Washington to sell staple
commodities at cost to Uncle SAM
army of employesl
That is the latest reform that Rep.
resentative Berger of Wisconsin, the
Socialist member Of the house, has un-
dertaken to accomplish. He intro
duced a bill the other day appropri-
ating S1,000,000 for the establishment
of chain of stores to be organized
and operated along the lines of the
commissary stores in the canal strip
on the Isthmus of Panama
The Berger measure asks that the
secretary of the interior, at the ear
liest practicable time, establish in the
city Of Washington, at suitable places,
stores for the sale, at cost price, of
staple commodities to all employees of
the federal government.
A clause in Berger's bill provides
for the extension of facilities already
at hand until such time as the chain
of stores is completed. This clause
reads:
That the privilege of purchasing, at
cost price, commodities from the de-
partment stores at Washington bar.
racks. d. c., and at navy yard station,
D. c., now restricted to officers and
enlisted men of the army and navy, be
and the same is hereby extended to
all employees of the federal govern
ment."

Details pellahts President.

While the making of appointments
and federal patronage has been the
bane of President Taft's executive life,
1t is one thing in which he has equaled
the judgment Of Mckinley. especially
in filling the important posts. They
have been made to effectively carry
out the administration policies with
as little regard for personal wishes as
Lincoln manifested. When the per-
picking problems Of political policy
are before him his brow wrinkles and
his mental appetite for facts is whet-
ted. No matter how large the mass
of detailed information involving a
fundamental decision or policy he is a
happy man-happy with a task that
would appal the ordinary man, but the
petty annoyances of patronage are his
abhorrence.-National Magazine.

FRENCHMEM THoUGHTIT JOKE
AMBASSADOR Jusserand's Request for
an outdoor Sleeping Porch Not
Taken Seriously at Home.

The French government has obtain
ed permit, blueprints and full speci-
ncations for fine new embassy build
ing here in Washington. AS French
architects rank among the best in the
world, the building will probably be
an attractive structure, with hard
WOOD hoors, modern plumbing, glass
doorknobs and decorated to suit
But j. ]. Jusserand, the French am
oassador, isn't certain whether the
piace Is going to be anything much
OF not In some respects the houses
that are shown in the daily papers suit
MIN much better, and he has made
bold to tell the French government
so.
lnasmuch as Jusserand is going to
i've In the place. his government as
sumed' quite logically, that he and his
wire would have some little curiosity
TO see the plans and note the loca-
tlons OF closets and bathrooms. So
they sent him blueprints showing the
front, side and rear elevations and the
interior arrangements.
Jusserand promptly wrote back to
mis- government saying he wished,
while they were about it, that they
would build house with a few of the
more modern conveniences. For ex-
ample, he pointed out no American
thinks of building a house nowadays
without an outdoor sleeping porch and
also cute little screened porch
where they could serve afternoon tea.
Jusserand's letter caused much con-
sternation in his native land. The
French officials couldn't figure out
why few years residence in Amer
lea should give high born citizen SO
many barbarous notions about archi-
lecture. After several weeks they an
swered his sleeping porch communica-
tion and told him they enjoyed his lit
tie joke.
or course, you cannot be serious"
they said, I'm wishing to sleep public
iy. The outdoor porch might be very
nice for an American hunting cabin
with its picturesque log finish, but for
an embassy building located in the
heart of city, any arrangement for
one to sleep out on the porch would
no doubt excite much funny comment
Furthermore. we do not know of any
recognized school of architecture that
provides for special porch to sleep
on"
Jusserand threw up his hands with
despairing gesture on receipt of the
letter. asked for one more window in
the front bedroom, and let it go at
that.
The Colorado statesman., 1912-03-09

The New York Times claims that
the friends of the negroes are doing
them a disservice when they bring ac-
tions in the courts to compel theater
managers to sell them tickets to any
part of their theaters. 1t AYERS that
the white patrons would cease to
patronize the theaters on account of
their prejudice against negroes. Have
the whites of New York ceased to
patronize the street cars and the rail-
roads? Do they cease from attending
the public library, the parks, etc, be-
cause negroes are admitted to them?
The editor of the Times passes for a
brainy man and yet is guilty of per-
petrating such rot The fact is that
the great body of white people in this
country care nothing for these mat
ters, 1t is only few who dread the
comparison between themselves and
negroes. They seem to think that
their alleged superiority is in danger
of being questioned and hence they
seek to remove the competition
against them by having the negroes
removed from their just position If
race prejudice were left alone 1t
would die of the lack of proper nu-
triton 1t feeds upon such carbon
Piedmont Advocate.
The Colorado statesman., 1912-03-09

The negro fraternal organizations,
in this state especially, have been
taught a most forceful lesson, in the
fact that they can't very successfully
conduct mercantile business in con-
nection with insurance business.
In order to make a success OF such
establishments there must be great
deal of money invested and people
must be secured, who understand the
kind of business 1t is intended to con-
duct in every essential detail.
OF course most of these concerns
are run upon the cooperative plan
and the people who take stock are
always selfish about who should con-
duct the business and in consequence
sentiment controls the affairs instead
of cold business, and We can never
hope to make any business succeed
unless 1t is run upon the most strict
business basis.-Newport (Va) News
Star.
The Colorado statesman., 1912-03-09

The viewpoint is everything. II
you don't think straight you can't see
straight The Chicago Defender says:
"The United States government gave
last year s1,430,000 to Indian educa-
ton and 100000 to negro education
Comment unnecessary" But COM
ment is necessary. The Indian owned
the country before the white man, and
the white man robbed him of 1t; 1t is
as little as 1t could do, then, to make
him some payment in the education
of his remnants. Again: the Indian
is very generally regarded and treat
ed as ward of the nation. with no
inheritance in citizenship. On the
other hand, the negro is a free citizen
OF the nation. and no ward, and has
an undisputed inheritance in citizen
ship. The Indian is dependent; the
negro is independent-New York
Age.
The Colorado statesman., 1912-03-09

A ChiDaman prefers the Chinese
newspaper, the Irishman the Irish
newspaper; the German. Dago, Anglo
Saxon, Greek-in fact every human
being prefers the literature made by
his own people except the American
negro. He prefers the newspapers
printed by white men. OF course
there are exceptions to this rule. In
the matter of developing the colored
man along lines of race love, scarce
ly beginning has been made.
We can see the baneful effects of
the disloyalty of the colored man on
every hand and wherever we turn.
In this city there are hundreds of dry.
goods stores owned by whites, while.
only one is owned by colored COM
pany. There are only $4,000 whites
to support hundreds of stores, and 49,
900 colored people to support one
store. If they had sense enough to do
this, soon this store would cover a
city square and employ hundreds or
their young men and women; but they
are too ignorant to patronize their
own concern. What is true of the
dry goods store is true of every other
line except in the case of the under
takers and physicians, and it has been
proven that white people as a rule do
not care to mix up with the darkey in
death or sickness.
The Dallas Express does not call at
tention to these things out of preju-
dice to the white people, but to en-
tighten the colored man on the great
doctrine of self-help, without the prac-
tice of which no race can rise to re-
spectacle consideration.
Our schools, academies and col
leges are filled to overiowing with
bright young men and women who
must find respectable and paying en-
ployment. They have a right to ex-
pect this from their own race. The
fathers of the present generation OF
negroes were for the most part born
free, at any rate they know nothing
OF slavery. They are American citi-
zens. They must not only accept lib
erty. but its responsibilities as well.
One of these responsibilities is the
care of the family and encouragement
of the rising youth.
The practice of the doctrine of self
help is the lever which must lift the
lump. Let us begin today; tomorrow
may be too late.-Dallas Express

AFRO-ANER|CAN CULL|NCS

A mavement is on foot, backed up
by some of the most prominent men
of the race, to aid the 61,131 deposit
ors of the Freedmen's bank to get
back their money. with the earnings
of many years. The amount which
the government bank owes the depos-
itors is 1921, ,744.50. In addition
about 100000 is due the old colored
sailors and soldiers, which amount II
secured will go toward the erection
of a permanent home for them. Inc
matter is to come up before the pres
ent congress and much pressure is be-
ing brought to bear to get the bills
through. Senator Roberts OF Massa-
chusetts will present the bills asking
the Freedmen's depositors be given
their money, and the 100000 due the
old sailors and soldiers be returned
Among the senators who are taking
personal interest in the matter is Sen
ator ]. j. Fitzpatrick, chairman or the
committee on appropriations.
Among the influential members of
the race who are interested in the
movement are Rev. DR.. s. l.. Corruth-
ers of Washington, d. c.; Hon. j. G.
Napier Register of the treasury;
Mrs. Mary Church Terrell, Bishop
Alexander Walters, Rev. James White
and many others. The prevailing opin-
ion in the country is that the money
wrested from the hands of the poor
depositors be refunded. Just what dis
position congress will take of the mat
ter is being watched with great inter
est.-Exchange.
The Colorado statesman., 1912-03-09

The steady growth of negro newspa-
pers in the various sections of the
country and the interest they take in
the local affairs of the people. always
of helpful character, with only Incl
dental interest In national affairs"
has been very remarkable during the
past ten years. The home, the church.
the school and business interests have
taken the place, almost entirely, of the
editorial opinion of the negro newspa-
per to the exclusion of political and
personal discussion That is to say, our
editors are beginning to "cast down
their buckets where they are for the
waters of life.
The Colorado statesman., 1912-03-09
Setting ones Heart on a Purpose.

A man should conceive of a legti-
mate purpose in his heart, and set
out to accomplish 1t. He should make
this purpose the centrafizing point of
his thoughts. 1t may take the form
of spiritual ideal, or 1t may be
worldly object, according to his ma
ture at the time being; but which
ever 1t is, he should steadily focus his
thought forces upon the object which
he has set before him. He should
make this purpose his supreme duty.
and should devote himself to its at
tainment, not allowing his thoughts to
wander away into ephemeral fancies,
longings and imaginings.-James AL
len.
The Colorado statesman., 1912-03-09

The natives OF the west coast OF
Africa are to have a supply of high
hats and paper collars. What they
want with either is not apparent at
this remove from "Africas golden
sands" A New York steamer has just
gone to the west coast loaded with
things the natives fancy. High hats
and paper collars are affected IN
Liberian circles" the news item says,
and the natives prefer things to the
mere token of the value of things.
Money does not mean much to them.
They prefer barter" Perhaps 1t is so,
but Judge Stewart did not look 1t nor
tell us so when he was recently in
New York. We are sure, however
the west coast natives will outgrow
the weakness for high hats and paper
collars, If they have it. First the
child, then the youth, then the man.
and 1t takes time, sometimes thou
sand years. Children like to parade
in the clothes of old folks, and old
folks often dress in the styles and
colors of young people. So with races.
Japan is in the transformation stage
from Oriental to European manners.
So, we once saw tall Japanese in
Yokahoma who had on big colored
gown, like bathrobe, belted with a
cord, tapping open in front, with a
derby hat on his head and American
shoes on his feet. That was ten years
ago. We suppose, now, he is wearing
a full dress suit three times day.
A west coast African native with a
high hat and collar on, and nothing
else, is hopeful improvement upon
the naked native.-New York Age.
The Colorado statesman., 1912-03-09
Reaching Ones Audience.

It is a great mistake to think any
thing to profound or rich for a popu-
lar audience. No train of thought is
too deep, or subtle. OF grand; but the
manner of presenting 1t should be Pc
culiar. 1t should be presented in
anecdote or sparkling trulsm or tell
ing illustration, or stinging epithet !;
always in some concrete form-never
IN logical, abstract. syllogistic
shape--Rufus Choate.
The Colorado statesman., 1912-03-09

There ought to be more business
establishments in Memphis oper-
ated by our people. But, you say,
there are too many now. No, you
will not patronize them is the rea-
son they are not a success. Throw
your trade to them and let them
widen out their places of business
and all will be able to employ our
boys and girls as they come out of
school. We don't mean by this
that your boy and girl must not
seek any kind of work to do when
they come out of school, but in
case there be enough business
places of your own we will be able
to employ a number of them. So
learn to support your own enter
prises and institutions of all kinds
and also your professional men.
Stop saying you would not allow
negro doctor in your house, or
that a negro lawyer cannot at
tend to your case in court. or that
you will not trade with So-and-So,
because he will not do this or that
like white folks. Stop wanting
something for nothing from your
own business men. Stop all this
stiffness and big-headedness and
build each other up. The white
people love to see you have race
pride; that Is, the better class of
white people and will credit you
with having common sense.-Memphis
