interested me enormously, by
reason of the life and color in the
streets. In this town is to be
seen the house of Simon, the
Tanner, and it was from Joppa
that Jonah embarked on the i'll
fated voyage that eliminated in
his sojourn in the belly of a
whale. My first impression on
walking through the streets was
that everyone had something to
sell. An Arab will sell every
thing but his beard and mustache.
A few hours journey in the
train and we approached Jerusa-
lem, throned on hills like that
other eternal city-Rome. But
to me, with my Imagination
ahame with thoughts of the mag
nitude of its history, the impress
sion of grandeur came not when
I saw the city afar off. The first
disappointing impression was
soon corrected after a walk
through the streets, where one
finds stories in stones and history
in everything.
The principal street is not
much more than IA feet wide, and
is vaulted over. At one end, by
the Jafa gate, are large iron
bars to prevent camels from en-
tering the street, Donkeys are
allowed to perambulate the street,

Washington D. C.--.The devel-
of the past week in the
field of politics were many and
varied and chrystalized themselves
into tidal wave Of sentiment IN
flavor aof. the nominrtion of Col.
| Theodore Roosevelt as; the candi-
date of the Republican. party for
the presidency. Dispatches from
all sections of the country have
told of the ascendency of the
Roosevelt boom. and the naming
of a number of. delegates, instruct
ed for him, have supported the
contention that he is the people S
choice. -.
. One of: the principal Roosevelt
victories Of the week was there
fusal of Mr.. Mckinley, manager
of the Administration campaign
forces, to accede to the request of
Senator Dixon, chairman of the

that the Administration intends to

THEATRICAL COMMENT.

S. H. Dudley, the leading coH7-
edlan of the Doctor Bean From
Boston Company, or better known
as the Smart Set, is inaugurating
a scheme which, if it proves sue
cessful, will be of lasting benefit
TO the celored performers of the
country. especially those In vaude-
vile -
Mr<Judley's plan is to establish
a wheel or circuit of colored the
alters IL all the larger cities Of tAe
country. and likewise some, of the
smaller ones, or, in fact, anywhere
1t is worth while.
Now that the Negro has arriv4
ed or is ne longer an experin1en
out an established fact III theat
ricals, the white managers all over
the country are turning him down
at every opportunity and doing all
they can to discourage him.
With few exceptions, such as
Bert. Williams, Fiddler and Shell
ton, Avery and Hart, and per-
formers CT that class, there axe
practically no Negro performers
able to secure work over the big
time, though there are numbers
capable of doing credit IL theA-
selves and the race upon any stage
in the land
go Que is better acquainted with
these facts than Mr. Dudley hin.-
self, and with this state of affairs
in view, he is trying to furnish
means of livelihood for his fellow
workers.
It is said by those in position to
KNOW, that Mr.. Dudley already
has several hundred thousand dol
HAIRS to put in the work, and with
{ prospects of that much more.
We as a race should all pull for
1.-The success of the venture, and do
all vge can in every way to make it
la huge success.
/ There are many Negroes, espe-
lciaI1y in the South, who are amply
liable 10 finance such a venture as
this and it goes without saying
THAT if properly managed, this
business is one of the most lucra-
tive in which person can engage.
| It is to be hoped that Mr. Dud-
iiey will receive the unstinted sup
| port and encouragement of his en-
ltire race in his efforts to better a
livery deserving class of men and
iwomen.

MR.. sToLL FOR DELEGATE.

The Weekly News, announces today
the candidacy of Hon. Richard c. Stoll
for delegate to the Republican National
Convention from the Seventh Congress
sional District Mr.. .Stoll is a warm
supporter of President Taft T. for re-
election.
AIR. Stoll is one of the, best friends
the colored man in Fayette County has
ever had and has always been a Repub-
lican. supporting at all times the nomi-
nees Of Republican Conventions. Mr.
Stoll belongs to the celebrated StolI
family who have always been Republi-
cans, his father, who is now dead, Mr.
R. P. Stoll, being during his life one of
the leading Republicans of the South in
the days when there were very few
white Republicans in Kentucky.
Mr.. Richard c. Stoll has never been a
candidate for any Office and as the posi-
ton of delegate does not pay anything ii
seems TO the writer that now is
a good time to reward him for his faith
full services in behalf of the Republican
party. Mr. Sto1l was one of the warm
est supporters of the Fusion ticket last
fall, is great friend of Senator Brad
,ley's and has arhost of friends who will
Insist that he be sent as delegate te
Chicago.
It is understood that the colored Taff
Club TO be organized at the u. B. F
Hall Monday night will endorse Mr.
Stoll and many of the colored voters Of
this district are for him.

CONTRIBUTED IN
INTEREST OF
Mr.. R. P SIOLL
PRESIDENT TAFT SHOULD BE
RENOMINATED,

We have no patience with the element
of our party which seeks to prevent the
denomination of President Taft Nc
President has done more for the Conn
trv than he. He is the one real pro-
gressive member of the Republican
party. The man who accomplishes
things for the good of the great COM
mon people, is the man who does the
people good. President Taft has ac-
cornplished great good and more pro-
gressive legislation has been passed dur
ing President Taft,s administration than
has been adopted by any other admins
tration of recent years.
During President Taft's administra-
ton. the Sherman Antitrust Act has
been enforced, three score monster cor
porations have been prosecuted, the gov
ernrnent has succeeded in dissolving the
Standard Oil and the Tobacco Trusts,
the Postoffice Department, for the hrst
time in its history, has been put upon
having basis, his judicial appointments
have been taken out OF politics, and
bucket-shops and get-rich-quick con-
Germs have been forced out OF exist
ence We are not attempting here TO
erunerate all the things accomplished
bv President Taft during his admins
ration, but we only wish to say that
President Taft has done things Tor the
rood of the people. He has been Presl-
dent of all Of the people without regard
to politics, race or creed.
We are opposed TO any person beng
President for third term. One OF the
greatest friends our race has ever had
was General Grant. He was one OF the
Greatest Presidents and greatest soldiers
that we ever had, yet the American PEG
nle would not agree that even so great
a man as General Grant should be norni-
mated for third term. George Washing
ton the father of our country, refused
to accept third term because he feared
that this might lead to monarchy and to
kings. Surely the advice of President
Washington should be followed.
We are opposed to the recall OF
judges. The greatest protection that
our rase and the American people have
and we are in favor OF
judiciary, which is fearless and will
ecide the law as the law is written, and L
e do not believe it safe orwise to sub b
ct Judge, WHO fearlessly decides what :
right, to recall because his position I
light not suit an exacting or prejudiced a
eople We have the fullest confidence c
the peaple We believe that the voice
the people is the voice Of God, but we /
/ know that sometimes people, in their
Go things which, after calm t
alteration. they would fail to do.
President Taft stands for the rights
all Of the people He has made
ood President, and he deserves re-
onlination apd reelection; and he
i'll be renominated and reelected
resident and the country will prosper
lder his new administration as it has
lring the present administration.
