CENTRAL DANCING SCHOOL

The re-opening of the Central
dancirY school OH last Monday
night, December 7th, was a grand
success. Majestic hall, which is
now one of the most beautiful in
Oakland, was crowded to the doors
and many were the exclamatious in
appreciation of the management.
The Golden West orchestra, the
playing of which is strictly first
class, furnished the music, and all
the dancers were pleased with the
same, and encores were numerous.
To say that the management was
pleased with the outpouring of
friends does not tell the whole
story-they were simply elated.
Monday, December I4th, is the
next meeting night of the school
and a cordial invitation is extended
to the public.

STAND BY THEIR SCHOOLMATE

L
Saturday morning the football
squad of Commercial high school of
Brooklyn journeyed to Cornwall,
where they were TO play The New
York military academy. BY ten
clock the Commercial team had
donned their suits aud were out OH
the field warming up. Shortly
after the Academy team came out,
but was seen sticking to the side
lines instead of warming up, and +,
when questioned as to the reason,
they hung back, and several of
them said they would not play if
Edward Williams, star tackle Of
the Commercials team, played
against them. Their coach said to
Coach Shearer of the Commercial
team: Unless you play without
the Negro, the game is off. +"
This is unusual" said Mr..
Shearer. He is member of the
team and he will play or there will
be no game. ;"
Further argument being useless,
Coach Thorpe of the Academy
wanted the game called a draw and
invited Shearer and his charges TO
come in and have lunch. Shearer
replied:
I'VE want none of your hospi-
tality, nor will we accept expenses
of bus conveyance to the station.
The Brooklyn boys then walked
three miles to the railroad station
and each paid his own fare rather
than accept what they called the
Academy's tainted money. They
openly taunted the Cornwall team

To this many Democrats. as well

To this many Democrats. as well
as practically all Republicans in
Congress. are more or less opposed.
There was much opposition 10 the
Jones bill on the Democratic side.
but pressure from the White House
was so great and the desire OF the
Congressman to get home to look
after their political fences so strong
that it was allowed TO go through.
This was done, however, with the
mental reservation in the minds of
many Democrats that the measure
would not come to vote in the
Senate, at least, not in this Con-
gress, or if it did, that it would be
defeated.
Southern Congressman, particu
larly, have been appealed to in
opposition to the bill on the ground
that to grant independence to the
Filipinos would be to put the white
people aud their interests in the
Philippines in the condition that the
white people of the South were in
during the reconstruction period
1
following the civil war, and before
white Democrats of the South had
found a way, through the grand
father clause aud other ingenious
devices, to escape the humiliation
of Negro domination. This is the
domination that threatens the white
people of the Philippines by the
passage of the Jones bill.
Democrats, however, hesitate tc
openly raise race issue of any sort
at present, because they fear its
possible rami6catious The subjec,
once opened. they do not know
where it might end.
The laws by which many South
ern States have disfranchised the
Negro are regarded by public met
generally as unconstitutional. They
feel that they are hardly warranted
in clamoring for independence anc
governmental authority for the
colored man in the Philippine.
while refusing them to the black
man at home. They admit tha
nobody is complaining much abou
present conditions i'll the South, bu
neither are Americans of any class
they also admit, complaining OF th'
condition Of the Filipinos. In tht
circumstances, Democrats as rul,
think it is a mistake to force th,
Jones bill now, and thus mak'
trouble for everybody, including
the Filipinos themselves most Of all

DEMOCRATS FEAR RACE ISSUE
PROVIDENCE JOURNAL.

PkONlDENNE JOONNhL.
Democrats in Washington are
chuckhng to think that the Negro
incident at the White House did
not occur before election. 1t may
not be important in itself, they say,
but they all fear and many of them
believe that it will grow into a
political issue that is apt to give
somebody trouble.
The dread of the moment that
possesses the minds of many of the
party leaders is that the general
race question may be raised in time
to have its effect on one of The pet
legislative propositions of the ad-
ministration, which the President
anc his advisers (if he has any
have slated for enactment at the
approaching short and final session
of the present Congress.
This is the bill which passed the
House shortly before adjournment,
providing the machinery for gradu-
ally giving Filipinos the independ-
ence promised them by Democratic
party platform planks aud Demo
cratic stump speakers ever since the
Philippines came into possession of
the United States.
The Jones bill does not give a
guarantee of that prompt and CON-
plete independence that Filipinos
from the days of Aguinaldo TO those
of Quezon, the present Filipino
delegate to Congress. have demand
ed, with some justification, from
Democrats, as soon as they should
come into power. But it is the
opening wedge. and if carried to its
legitimate conclusion would lead to
withdrawal of the United
and turning of the islands
over to the natives.

here also for hundreds of years.
The Negro is faithful. He is true
to trust. History will never forget
the fidelity of the Negro in the

torch was lighted. True the Negro

Miscellaneous Developments Bearing
upon Troubled Conditions.

Second Lieut.. +. II. Houston Of the

drunk and interfering with a policeman
who was trying TO take another drunk
en- Mexican to the lookup. The frSt
Mexican stabbed the policeman ana

the policeman. the drunken bully stab
bed him. The American officer shot ana
killed the Mexican on the spot. Gen
eral Funston commended the officer.
The Japanese minister ut Mexico
City and an attaChe of the legation.
have fallen into the hands of a rebel
band in the vicinity OF Sayula and
much anxiety was felt for their safety.
Later adviceS are to the effect that the
minister and attache had reached
port on the west coast Of Mexico.
Rumors coming to JuareZ are to the
effect that about forty Federal SOL
diers have been executed 1T Chihua-
hua. The Constituencies explain
the executions by saying that the
prisoners were deserterS from the
Federal army and deSerterS from for-
mer Madero troops who had joined
Huerta'S soldiers.
Conditions are reported TO be 50
bad at MaZatlan. that more than 200
women, practically starving TO death,
ioined in "a petition Sunday to the
military governor of MaZatlan, asking
him to surrender the Federal garrison
in order that food supplies might be
allowed to come into the city by the
rebels who are beSieging the port.
\ force of 5000 rebels have taken
charge of the towns of Teocelo and
Coatapec. between Vera Cruz and Mex
leo City, with the evident intention OF
isolating the seat of Huerta'S govern
ment so far as the railroad to Vera
Cruz is concerned. The Fedcrals are
reported to be rushing reinforcements
to Jalapa in the expectation that the
rebels will cut the railroad there. The
rebels are also directing attention 10
the railroad entering Mexico City from
other directions.
4 number of war vessels, now in
Mexican waters, are TO be returned to
the United States during this month
for overhauling. Other vessels, how
ever, are to take the places OF the
vessels returning To home waters.
The situation at Mexico City is re-
garded as very grave on account OF the
refusal of the Constitutionalist leaders
to agree to abide bv the findings ot
the mediation conference at Niagara
Falls. The attitude of the rebels Is
considered by many to render the
work of the mediation conference as
quite useless.
