COUNSEL FOR ADVANCEMENT.
Prseepts Adopted by tho Tuskesss Ne.
gro Conference.

prsespts Adopted by tho Tuskesss Ne
gro Conference.
The following declarations Of princi-
pies were adopted by the Tuskegee Ne
gro farmers conference during Its re-
cent session at the Tuskegee institute
In Alabama:
AT this twenty second annual meet
ing Of the Tuskegee annual Negro con-
ference, fifty years after Abraham Lin
coin set US free. we rejoice ut the evi-
dences we see around US Of the prog
ress Of the people Of our race.
while we rejoice In the opportuni-
ties that have come to us with enamel
patton, we recognize that complete
freedom can come to US only as we
gain the knowledge that will at rs TO
use these opportunities.
"We therefore urge upon our people
everywhere. especially upon our teach
ers and preachers. to see to It that the
masses Of our people are given the
kind Of education that will at them to
be honest. industrious and law abiding
citizens. .... .~.
1--WE advise all Of our people through
their local conferences, business
leagues or other organize lions to urge
upon the proper authorities and also
upon their own people the wisdom and
necessity Of improving the school
houses, lengthening the school terms
and Of securing teachers who are able
to At the education In the schoolroom
to the needs Of the community outside.
( I'VE are glad to learn by the last
census that during the first fifty years
Of our freedom something like 70 per
cent Of our people have learned to read
and write. We urge especially upon
the farmers Of our race to make use Of
this knowledge, to read the agricul-
tural papers, make themselves ac-
Quainted with the best scientific meth
DDS Of improving their lands, increas-
ing their stock and help to bring in an
era in the south when the farmer will
stop robbing the land and begin en-
riching It. .
I'm this connection we are glad 10
know that our farmers are making
progress, as is shown by the presence
here today Of colored man who rails
ed 200 bushels Of corn upon one acre
Of land, thereby winning among 10000
contestants the second prize offered by
the state of Alabama to the farmers
who raised the largest amount Of corn
Per acre.
. I'm conclusion we urge upon all Of
our people north and south to make
this flftieth anniversary of our free
dom the beginning Of a more united
effort to the end that the progress of
the next fifty years may be even more
rapid, more enduring and more worthy
Of the respect Of the world than that of
the past"
