arrived on the s:45 train last night
Both of these gentlemen, who are
among the best known politicians in
West Florida, are progressives, Cover
nor Wilson being the first choice of
Hayes Lewis, while Rivers Buford
championed the cause of Champ Clark
for the nomination. The first choice
Of each, however, is the second choice
of the other and is satisfactory.
Hayes Lewis was a candidate for
delegate to the convention on the
Woodrow Wilson ticket while Rivers
Buford was the only man in Florida
to make speeches for Champ Clark.
1t was before the ruling of the ex-
ecutive committee and when Buford
believed that the name Of the speaker
of the house would be on ticket In this
state that he made some speeches in
his interest. AS soon as the com
mittee decided TO only place the names
of Wilson and Underwood on the
ticket he espoused the cause of the
New Jersey governor.

The WEST INDIAN
NEGRO IN AMERICA

Every West Indian immigrant has
a definite purpose in view when he
lands in New York. In his own coun-
try there were activities which
were wholly in the hands of white
men; but here he can enter upon
these and assume that position OF
natural leadership which was denied
him at home. His ambition is arous-
ed; a massive race consciousness, the
like of which he has never expert
enced heretofore, binds and conse-
crates him to the service of his race;
the superiority of his early training
inspires him with new and strange
sense of power; and with this comes
the desire seen among aliens-the
strong and steadfast determination
to master new society and ciyiliza-
tion for the sake of self-preservation.
Seeing that the standard of intellect
ual requirement in the average col.
ored school is below what would
have been expected of him in his own
land, he steadily and vigorously
pushes his way to the front, and finds
little opposition in so doing. He
questions everything, taking nothing
for granted, and never resting until
he can see the reason underlying all.
American methods of education seem
to leave too little for the mental
teeth of the student, the whole diet
being pre-digested. The American
student usually makes a better reci-
tation, reciting page after page to
the establishment of the West Indian;
but the latter cannot do this, as he
has been accustomed to correlate
and associate every new fact with
an old. He carries with him only
facts which he can incorporate into
his mental consciousness for all
time. The West Indian student does
not care how long he takes so long
as he understands every move and
step leading to the solution of
problem. Where routine work is
concerned, the American will very
often surpass the West Indian; in
initiative the latter is better.-South.

PLANTS FROM CUTTINGS.

When growing plants from cuttings
take off from old ones the tips of the
branches with sharp knife, using a
quick downward stroke, taking three
eyes" or buds. When the soil Is filed
in the flats firm it at once, and with
a quick. firm stroke. holding the cut
ting between the thumb and first fin
ger, insert it in the soil. releasing the
fingers as soon as the lower bud has
been covered a half inch. When all
are planted soak the fiat, shade for a
day, and set in light window shaded
with white curtain. Pot into 2-inch
pots as soon as the cuttings form a
small mass OF roots, which will be in
from three to four weeks. From this
on the treatment of the seedlings and
rooted cuttings is the same. Shift
them on as their pots fill with roots

DUTCH MONEY IN OUR FARMS.

A good share of the money borrowed
on farms in this country comes from
Holland. For years the Dutch cap
italists have been turning their sur
plus money over to the American farm.
ers to develop the vast agricultural
reaches of the country, says the New
York Sun. South America and Africa
are now soliciting money from Holland
for improving their crops, and as a re-
suit less moneyis now being placed by
the Dutch on American farms. Under
this demand the Holland bankers have
raised rates on money and the class
of securities. Almost any price is paid
now, and the securities offered for
these loans are only of the gilt-edge
kind.
AS result of this pressure the ac-
tual amount of money in Holland avail
able for this purpose has shrunk per-
ceptibly. Again Holland is turning to
it's own agricultural fields, which
means that capital that might be avail
able to the American farmer is now
being used developing the fertile land
of the many dikes. The. prevailing
rate for money Is about per cent
A few large loans on American and
Canadian farms have been negotiated
at 5 per cent, but this is a rock bot
tom figure To take care of this big
business many mortgage companies
have been organized in Amsterdam
and other big cities of the thrifty lit
tie kingdom.
A mortgage company is now being
spoken of to handle loans on Texas
farm land.

ADVANCE IN EDUCATION

Washington.-It is encouraging to
note the continued increase of inter-
est in the study of modern languages
at Howard university as indicated by
the large enrolment in the classes. es-
pecially in German. Within three
months after DR.. Schmidt took up his
work In German there was a marked
growth In interest and enthusiasm.
This advance has been kept up through
the addition to the faculty of Mr..
James S. Thomas, who was elected
Instructor in German at the last meet
ing of the board. He has fully justi-
fled the high estimate placed upon
him as a scholar and teacher. Ger
man club of over sixty members has
been organized, where all the proceed
ing are carried on In German.
While the high water mark In at
tendance in the School of Theology
reached last year has not been wholly

ALUMNI ASSOCIATION BROADENS
WORK.
It is truism that the larger life
and influence of a real university are
not in its buildings or grounds or in
its faculty or student body, but in its
alumni. One of the discouraging fea-
lures in the past history of Howard
has been in the fact that there has
seemed such slight attachment to
the university on the part of the great
body of its alumni. 1t is gratifying.
however, to note a decided growth OF
interest on the part of the alumni.
The annual meetings have greatly in
creased in attendance. The luncheon
rendered to the alumni by the board
of trustees has been of marked value
and greatly appreciated.
Within the past few months there
has been an advance in larger plans
for the unifying of alumni sentiment
and loyalty as has not been seen before
in the history of the institution. A
strong executive board has been form
ed, we'll defined constitution has
been prepared and adopted, secre-
tary has been employed for reaching
the last alumnus, an official list OF
members is being prepared, and plans
looking to a great reunion at COM
mencement have been formulated and
are being pressed on the attention OF
the whole alumni body.
The gymnasium project, which start
ed out with much hope, but almost
wholly declined in interest after the
first 81 900 had been raised, has been
taken up again with vigor. 1t is plan
ned to keep up this work until the
$4,000 goal is reached. There are
eleven city organizations of the alum
nj, and others are being formed.

For is not our most important duty
always the duty nearest to US? And Is
not the southern white mans greatest
opportunity to work for the realization
Of the prayer, Thy Kingdom come. to
be found in the opportunity which Is
furnished by the condition of the Ne
gro at his very door?
May my hand forget its cunning
and my tongue cleave to the roof of
my mouth" If ever / utter or write a
single word calculated to make less
Missions. But even in work for Christ
ought not some efforts relatively to
take precedence of others?
To make a great sacrifice to relieve
a yellow fever epidemic in Calcutta
would bespeak breadth of SOUL but II
In doing so we ignored at the very
same time the suffering and dying
from an epidemic of smallpox at our
very door-a disease, the nature and
proximity of which would keep us and
our loved ones threatened with death.
What would such conduct indicate?
Does not the above aptly portray the
southern white mans zeal for Foreign
Missions? And yet the Negroes condi-
ton, while mill stone around the Ne
gro's neck. is curse and hindrance
to the white man also. Ignorance is
not only curse to the possessor, but
to all who are. brought in contact with
It, And is not self preservation hui
manity's first law?
WHITE PROGRESS CONDITIONED
ON NEGRO ADVANCE.
These things must be done: The
white man must either eliminate and
exterminate, or evangelize and educate
the Negro And to educate him being
the right way, the more humane, Gods
way safety for the white man and sal
vation for the Negro are to be found
in the moral educational and religious
betterment of the Negro by the white
man. Nothing is ever settled unless
it be settled right-in accordance with
Gods laws and standards.
THE SOUTHERN WHITE MAN
SHOULD GIVE THE SOUTHERN
NEGRO THE GOSPEL.
We are part of all with which we
come in contact" Then self-interest.
to say nothing of Christianity, ought to
cause the white man to strive stren-
uously for the Negroes education and
betterment God did not solve the hu-
man problems until he gave the world
Christ.
AS the methods of expediency and
the judgment of the white mans wis
dom have thus far failed and will con-
tinue to fail to solve the race problem,
would it not be better to accept and
put in practice the wisdom of God and
give the Negro Christ-the gospel?
The gospel will settle all human prob
lens to the best good and content
nient of all concerned.
The gospel is what the negro sorely
needs-in fact all mankind needs. 1t
will save from sin. 1t will make man
more useful to himself and to others,
for were not all the inventions which
bless mankind today, made in lands
where God is known and Christ is
preached? 1t makes a man Industrious.
1t makes womanhood honored and re-
spected and protected. 1t also makes
a man more humane
In fact, the gospel makes the dumb
to speak, the deaf to. hear, the lame to
walk, the blind to see. 1t makes man
new creature in Christ Jesus. 1t
brings God to man and man to God. 1t
makes us like Christ whom we shall
see as he is, because we are like him.
