The getting together of the Demo
Gratis and progressive Republicans is
interpreted to mean that the Senate
will soon take up the tariff. There
are many predictions that the history
of the extra session last summer will
repeat itself this session. and that the
coalition will put through several tar
in bills
As In the extra session, the Demo-
Gratis of the Senate do not really ex-
pecttthe' support Of the Republican in
surgents for the Democratic tariff bills
passed by the House, but in the extra
session the coalition united to support
a compromise framed by the insur-
gents. Compromise bills for the tar
iff measures passed by the House this
season are pretty well framed
Senator. Cummins is practically
ready to put in his metals tariff bill
any day. Senator Bristow has al
ready presented substitute sugar
schedule. Plans are being laid for a
chemical Revision schedule.
So II is confidently predicted that
bills revising these schedules of the
Payne Aldrich law will be put up to
President Taft as bills revising the
wool and cotton schedules were put
up to him during the extra session.
Standpat Republicans of Congress
maintain that they will meet the same
fate as those in the extra session-ve-
toes-on the ground that the tariff
board has not investigated these in
dustries.
Upon the wool revision bill passed
by the House the situation II entirely
different. The tariff board has sub

most all sections Of the state. Much
interest is being manifested in the
work Of the institution by the leading
white and colored citizens Of the COM
munity and immediate vicinity In
which 1t Is located.
The school had its inception in the
thrift and industry of Mr.. Page M.
Beverly, who communicated his ideas
and plans to a number Of ministers.
The result was the formation Of the
school, which Is Incorporated under
the laws Of the state. 1t has the in
dorsement Of the white Baptist state
convention, from which 1t receives sub
stantial encouragement
The faculty Is composed Of a group
Of interested men and women well
qualified for the work. A thorough

given the students before they are al
lowed to enter upon the various trades
and industrial branches. The academ-
ic department prepares the student

President Beverly is an energetic
young man Of great ambition and self

ties Of the school as set forth in the ar
ticles of incorporation.

able member of the community. and
has its deepest sympathy.
Mrs. Francis, when intervied, said
that she considered it high honor to
be selected by that great body of in
telligent and progressive women for
their president, also regards it as an
extremely difficult position, owing to
the highly successful administration
OF our former beloved and efficient
president, Mrs. Gibbs. Mrs. Francis
hopes to attain some degree of her
great success, and feels that by so do
ing the confidence placed in her by
the women of the Federation, has not
been misplaced.
1t Is source of pleasure to her
to know that she was elected without
opposition.

Of forceful character and energetic
manner such as DR.. Penn is known to
be. He is peculiarly known as q man
who has been successful at everything
he has attempted.
He called the attention of the coun-
try to the remarkable achievement Of
the Negro race through the success Of
the exhibit at the Cotton States expo
sition, held In Atlanta in 1895, because
Of the painstaking care and general
forethought that directed his every
movement as head Of the departmnt.
1t is generally known, too. that
through his invitation he gave that
eminent educator, DR.. Booker T. Wash

States exposition to promulgate his
gospel Of amity and mutual helpfulness
between the races, for which he has
since become famous the world over.

DR.. Penn came to this position from
the public schools Of his home town,
Lynchburg, Va. As principal Of the
school in Lynchburg he not only sue
ceeded In his work. but drew consid-
erable attention to himself through the
authorship of a distinctively race work,
"The Afro-American Press" This book
Of 600 pages was an authority at the
time upon the relation of the Negro
press to the abolition of the race.

other men who have stood in the lime

has gone on his mission as assistant

has come in contact with young men
