The Globe acknowledges a copy OF
the New Discipline of the African
Methodist Episcopal Church, publish
cd at their Sunday-School Union In
this city. We are informed by Mr..
Ira t. Bryant, the manager of that
house, that this Is the first time In
the history of the Church that a dis
cipline has been printed by N OF
its publishing houses. Heretofore, we
are informed, the work has been done
by contract, but Mr.. Bryant makes
the book out and out. We know
this to be a fact, for the Globe did
not take Mr.. Bryant's word for it but
detailed an experienced man, a prac'
teal printer, to watch the work in
its various stages, who saw the young
Negroes setting the type, reading the
proof, correcting the errors, making
I'D the forms, printing the sneeCs
on the presses, and then II
the bindery, folding the sheets
sewing the books on a new machine
bought for the purpose, then the backs
we're put on and Mr.. Bryant, not
satisfied with having made the boob
from start to finish, had the courage
to prove to his Church that the Dis
cipline could be sold cheaper and al
a profit than it had formerly been.
The A. M. E. Church should recog'
nize the ability of this young man
and we have no doubt that his worth
to his Church will receive that com
mendation and support it deserves. W.

EDITOR DAVIS IN CUBA.


In last weeks issue Of the Atlanta
Independent, Mr.. B. J.. Davis, the edi-
tor, published the first installment Of
a serial article on a recent trip to
Cuba under the title "On the Way to
Cuba" We shall publish the story as
it appears in the Independent from
week to week, and urge that u sub
scribers read the same carefully.
The Globe has always contended
that the Negroes in the States and
West Indies and Central and South
America are too far apart. Editor
Davis doubtless learned a deal from
the trip and he has the ability to tell
what he observed to the people at
home. The black people ought to
know each other, and no better
method Of establishing and acQuaint-
anceship can be adopted than through
the press.

ANNUAL MEETING OF THE RAIL

Wednesday night the most elabo-
rate banquet ever given by the Rail
way Employees Protective Associa-

quarters On Cedar street. The hall
was crowded and many had to stand.
Beautiful decorations and neat par
lors showed that the ladies had been
making special preparations for the
occasion. The people have learned to
expect this from the Association un-
der the leadership of the energetic
president, Mr.. Humphrey Bowling.
The report shows the condition of
the Association to be all that could
be desired. The following program

NEW USE FOR THE PUBLIC
SCHOOLS.

The suggestion emanating from
Richmond that the public school
buildings of the country district
should be used the year round by
the people of their respective commu-
mites as a sort of central meeting
place for neighborhood gatherings
appeals to us as being a very timely
thought, and especially applicable to
the colored schools.
The University of Virginia is help
ing the plan along by sending out
some of its teachers to deliver lee
lures upon various subjects relating
to the social and economic life Of the
people of the state. These lectures
are supposed to be made in the public
school houses under the auspices of
local school improvement leagues,
and cost nothing except the travelling
expenses of the University professor.
In precisely the same manner the
icoiored school houses could be made
centers of social and educational &C
tivity in every community. The
farmers could meet to discuss their
problems; the neighborhood literary
society could have n night a week;
a Mothers Meeting" is a useful in
strument of social service in any
community, and most important Of
all the school house should be the
meeting place Of the local school i'm
provement league. If every public
school house was put to these uses
it would not only touch the life of the
child, but exert a most helpful edu-
cational influence over the whole
community, and the result would not
only be an increased interest in the
public schools but in all matters per-
tanning to better citizenship.
The idea is one that could be de
veloped in every community with
mutual advantage to both the citizen
and the public school system.

Council were inclined toward Mr..
Bryant. Again, when 1t was shown
that the only copyright that protects
the book was secured by Mr.. Bryant,
and that had he not secured a copy
right the Discipline would have no
protection. The quito me was a sig
nal victory for the Nashville depart
ment and Mr.. Bryant is receiving
compliments from every quarter. An
other feature of this controversy that
geined adherents to Bryant was Cne
fact that the price has been reduced
to 80 cents each. A commission was
appointed to take up the differences
between Mr., Bryant and DR.. Lowe.
The following were appointed: Bish-
or ], H. Flipper, Bishop w. D. Chap
pelle and Bishop Joshua H. Jones.
The commission will meet in April,
in this city, at the A. M. e. Sunday

The Council expressed great sur
prise that the Discipline had been
made to read that the A. M. E. Re-
view was ordered moved to Philadel-
mia. This was another victory for
the Nashville house. The meeting
lasted four days, including Sunday.

RURAL AND URBAN LIFE.

Conditions in the South are under
going radical changes. The latest
census figures show in most instances
that the Negro population is concen-
trating in the cities, and while the
same is true, to a large degree. Of the
white people, the question that should
be considered by the Negro is, what
affect the change will work on them
as a whole. The white population
that Is increasing in the cities is not
made up entirely of the rural popu-
ton, but to a large degree Of immi-
grants from the North, who are COM
ing south to work in the factories.
The factory work is not open to Ne
groes only as helpers ana porters.
These positions do not appeal to the
educated. In view Of this fact will 1t
work a hardship on the Negro? Is
he not making his burden heavier by
continually focking to the cities? This
brings the question Of conditions of
rural life. The complaint is often
made, and justly so, that white caps
terrorize Negroes who attempt to be
thrifty in the country. Only recently
in a community where Negroes are
living well, a sick man was blown
out Of his bed by a dynamite. But
over against this is put the fact thai
the substantial citizens Of that com
munity came together and made Il
known to the world that they were
going to see to It that the lives and
property Of the humblest citizen wa.
protected, and as soon as the whit
cappers" were made to know tina
their attempts to terrorize the Negroes
of that community would be met b!
a resistance that would be the mos
determined, all was quiet.
These little disturbances will come
whether the Negro stays in the coun
try or moves to the city; there |
no getting around that, but since 1
is proven that the industrious an.
honest are going to be protected /
does not appear that the Negro shoul
try to get away from a condition, bu
should face it courageously.

LITIGATIoN.

The Negro race since the enamel
patton has not been able to acquire
very much Of this worlds wealth. In
view of that fact 1t seems unwise
to waste what little has been accumu-
lated in useless litigation after the
death of those who have left a little
something. 1t is very easy to avoid
trouble by exercising a little common
sense in ~disposing of what there may
be while we are alive and in the full
possession of the bodily faculties. 1t
is expensive asd exceedingly trouble
some to make and probate a will. If
the amount of the estate is less than
two thousand dollars it will not paw
to go through the courts In making a
settlement that will invite litigation
and will cost money. If there be
something left the easier and better
way is to transfer it before death and
there will be no contention after
ward. Money in the bank may be
transferred and property may be con-
veyed by deed before death and then
there can be no controversy after
wards.
When sickness comes and the re-
suit is uncertain the proper thing to
do is to secure the services Of a COM
petent person and then arrange ones
affairs as it seems proper.
We are prompted to give this ad-
vice because so many of the Negroes
waste their little accumulations by
making no such provisions for the
future.-The Home Protective Record.

Four Months to Claim DAMAGES

Patrons of the railroads must make
their claims for loss, damage or delay
in shipment, within four months of the
date of delivery or within four months
after a reasonable time for delivery
has elapsed, or they will be unable to
collect their claim. The railroad COM
panies are not liable, after the four
months have passed.
Notice to this effect has been sent
out to the various agents in Montana
The notice is the result of the unani-
nous opinion of the attorneys for the
principal western railroads in regard
to that section of the uniform bill of
lading. This section reads as follows:
Claims for loss, damage or delay
must be made in writing to the carrier
at the point OF delivery or at the point
of origin within four months after de-
livery of the property, or in case Of
failure to make the delivery. then
within four months after a reasonable
time for delivery has elapsed. Unless
claims are so made the carrier shall
not be liable"
