FORMER KEOKUKIAN
WORKING FOR PROGRESS
Spirit Of Progress az Shown by Ac-
tive Work at Wellston, st.
Louis Suburb.

The spirit of progress seems to
have permeated the entire country
with the wish and activity to make
the year 1914 model year for indus
trial adyancem snt and the building up
of towns and cities heretofore DOR
mant.
The Globe-D Democrat one day this
week made prominent notice of the
action of the citizens OF Wellston, a
suburb of st. Louis, whose people for
some time have been looking for a
plan for the Improvement of the con-
ditions there Wellston is a well-built
town OF some size, many OF its resi-
dents doing business In st. Louis.
Now, the town lies Just outside the
city limits Of st. Louis in the county.
Many of the people Of more progress,
siye ideas have agitated the thought
of having ST. Louis attach the town
of Wellston to it's municipal govern
ment that more modern utilities might
be acquirsd for the comfort, conven-
fence and advancement OF that place.
The result of this agitation for better
ing the condition OF Wellston has re-
suited in the organization Of the Ho-
bart lmprov sment company in which a
former Keokuk boy plays a promi-
nent part.
He is Richard w Wood who has
been active and successful in bust
ness in St. Louis for number OF
years and only a few years ago pur-
chased, residence in Wellston where
he now resides. The improvement as

gan at once to do things" Within
4 five days of the organization sufi-
/ cient funds had been received by pri-
vate subscription to light Hobart ave.
nue., principal thoroughfare OF the
4 town, and the matt er is under discus
sion for the reincorporation OF the
town which lost its charter several
years ago by action of the supreme
l court.
The matter of Incorporation will
probably be taken up later by the as
! ISOLATION with the question also Of an
n axation to the municipality Of st.
Louis. 1t Is evident that the spirit of
1 improvement is pushing forward the
popular movement and the fact that
within five days much needed I'm
provement In the matter of liehting
the town was accomplished, speaks
well for this young organization and
promises much In the future In the
uplift of Welston and the energetic
executive ability of the president. a

Audience Of coIored People

Night.
PROBLEMS CONSIDERED
7. J. Hunter Draws an Analogy Be-
tween the Jewish and
Negro Bondage, in
His Speech.

The forty-f1rst anniversary OF Eman
cipation Day was celebrated last night
by the colored people of Keokuk a,
the Bethel A. NJ. E. church, corner
Seventh and Morgan streets. A pro
gram Of speeches, Including one by
G. r. JOY. president Of the Industrial
Association, and music had been pre-
pared for the evenings celebration.
Artistically draped over the organ
OF the church was huge American
flag. On stand in front of the pull
pit stood a picture showing Abraham
Lincoln in the act of freeing the
slaves.
Alonzo w. Draine acted as master
Of ceremonies and very capably fillei
that place. In introducing Mr. Joy,
: Mr. D-aine spoke of him as man
who stood for progressiveness In
keokuk's hi.tory, and man who
was known from the Mississippi to
the Potomac.
Mr.. JOY said that no pes dent had
the responsibility that Lincoln car
ried. He SAID it was no wonder that
he had sad face ard the gray hairs
crept early into his head. AS Lincoln
faced the problem of the emancipa-
ticn. Mr.. Joy spoke of his anxiety.
If Lincoln could see the progress you
have made he would feel
that he did the right thing.
When we consider that 10000
of the farms in North America are
owned by negroes, and that $4,000
homes in the cit es are owned by
negroes. one can net help but feel
that he would wonder that SO much
could have been done In SO short a
time
Mr.. JOY then commented upon the
future. He took up me- Of the eco
nomic problems confronting the
negro. He said, more attention must
he paid to education. There were too
many criminals among the black race
and records showed that it was the
uneducated man that made the Grim.
inal.
More efficiency in service was an
other suggestion Mr. Joy made He
tod his audience that they should BE-
able to do what they knew how to do
better than any white man, then they
would be in demand for their ser.
vices
He then spoke about health. The
death rate was too large, and tuber
calosis in particular was making in
roads into the ranks Of the negro Mr.
Joy suggested a few simple means
for securing better ventilation and

BRADY APPRECIATED

The reelection of Senator Brady
demonstrates that the people of this
state believe in the policy of accord
ing every confidence to an individual
who has made good. In face Of enc
mics in his own party, and battling
against odds occasioned by affairs
that seriously disrupted the Republi-
cans this year, his victory is import
ant in that it not only overcame all
obstacles, but placed Senator Brady
at the head of the Republican party
Of the state, and evidenced that the
Republicans have faith in his ability
to lead the party to victory and to
remain loyal to it under the most
trying conditions. He has advanced
from business man. promoter, live
factor in development, governor, to
the United States senate, and the
vote to return him to the senate dem
onstrated that his popularity ard
substantial character have grown.
His ability has grown, also, and not
the least of his requirements is an
oratorical ability that materially
counted in the campaign just closed.
