morning session was held. When they
had finished their numbers on the pro-
gram and the presiding officer attempt
ed to 60 on with the business of the as
sociation, there was one continuous
ovation on the part Of the audience
so much SO that the presiding officer
was compelled to ask the students to
sing one more selection.
The following editorial which ap-
reflects the general opinion Of those
who were present concerning the part
taken by the students:
"One of the most distinctive features
OF the state Sunday school convention
now in session In the capital which the
delegates will carry away with them
will be the musical part, especially the
part taken by the young men and
young women of the West Virginia
Collegiate institute.

colored school for higher education

OUR SUCCESS IN MUSIC.
Most Distinctive In America,
Says Benjamin Brawlsy.

Benjamin Brawley In q recent
article In the Southern Work
man has the following to say OF
the possibilities Of the race for
advancement In the arts and In
music:
With reference to the Negro
two things are observable. One
Is that any distinction so far
won by member Of the race In
America has been almost always
In some one Of the arts, and the
other is that any influence so far
exerted by the Negro on Ameri-
can civilization has been prima-
rily In the field of aesthetics. But
there Is something deeper than
the consciousness Of beauty that
makes for the possibilities Of the
Negro In the realm Of the arts,
and that Is the soul Of the race.
The wall Of the old melodies
and the plaintiye quality that Is
ever present In the Negro voice
are but the reflection Of the back
ground Of tragedy. No race can
rise to the greatest heights OF
art until 1t has yearned and suf-
fered. The Russians are case
In point. Such has been their
background In oppression and
striving that their literature and
art today are marked by an un-
mistakable note of power. The
same future beckons to the Amer
lean Negro.
The Negro has great gifts OF
voice and ear and soul, but so
far much Of his talent has not
scared above the vaudeville
stage. This is due most largely,
OF course, to economic instability.
1t is the call Of patriotism. how
ever, that America should realize
that the Negro has peculiar gifts
which need all possible cultiva-
ton and which will one day add
to the glory Of the country. Al
ready his music is recognized as
the most distinctive that the
United States has yet produced
Oakland sunshine., 1915-07-03

The following are some of the
principles for which the Colored Git
izens Protective Association, an or
ganization of colored men and women
recently organized for the civic pro-
lection and betterment of their citi-
zenry of San Francisco, stand for:
The principles we stand for and ad-
vocate in season and out of season:
We believe that humanity is unit,
and we advocate the cause of right
and justice for all sorts and condi-
tions of people, women. children and
men.
We believe in an Almighty God and
we are unalterably opposed to the
sovereign will and power vested in
one human being, man or woman.
We believe in inspired and divine
race leadership and we are uncompro-
misingly opposed to specially hired
or charitably bribed leadership for
this reason: any man who can be spe-
cially hired and privately paid to lead
the people can be bribed to mislead
the people. !.
We believe that colored men in all
parts of the republic should vote and
be allied with any political party they
desire, and we strongly advocate TAX
ing an active part in politics and vot-
ing at all elections.
We believe in a broad franchise for
women and men, and we advocate the
same qualification for both, because
it is Just, right and fair and will work
for the success of human progress and
good government.
The object of the Colcred Citizens
Protective Association is: To seek the
truth by turning the searchlight on in
dark places; to oppose false teachings

 MT Mills will return Co the coast on tht train leaving at nine o'clock tonight as his engagements are suchI that he cannot remain longer.
 The fact that Mir Mills comes to Bisbee on this occasion speaks vol umns for the high regard tht Loyal Order of Moose have for their service in commemoration of their departed brethern. He has few equals and no supeiors in the world today as am orator, and being a member of the order, he speasks as brother to his brethren on this occasion. and all who hear him win undoubtedly rtmember this day for many years to come.
 MT Mills is not only an orator. but his lile's efforts toward the uplifting of humanity probably places him in the position of being the greatest liv- ing human factor in the establish ment of the Fatherhood of God and the Brothtrhood of man.
