Our voters of Des Moines will vote
Monday at special election asking
them if they want to 10 away with
the various justice of the peace courts

lieu thereof. We think that our city
ought to establish municipal court,
where all minor troubles and difficult
ties might be speedily tried and ad-
Indicated without della or taking
change of venue to prolong the case
and add cost. It will centralize. our
courts and in the end save money.

TRIBUTE TO BOOKER T. WASH.
INGTON.

When soul has taken its lofty flight,
Away from the world and its pain,
Can we yield it up and say It's right;
That our loss is just Heavens gainy
When we think Of the year of con.
slant toll,
That Washington gave to our race,
OF the sorrows endured, of days Of
turmoil,
We know he was kept by Gods
grace.
Do you know the task he has left un-
done,
Must 60 on if we reach the goal,
He has set for our race, and it will bs
. done, "
We treasure the gift of his soul.
Oh! leader of men! by thy force of
Thou has left US monument grand,
Thy dreams realized you knew how to
build
Upon rock, not the wave shifting
sand.
An influence grand from this founda-
tion strong,
Will endure in the years to come,
Thou hast gone to join Eternity's
throng,
Oh immortalized Washington!
Oh lealer Of men! your work now is
Der,
Your troubles, your sorrows, and
Il. pain,
In the light of Gods love your soul
will soar,
For our loss is just Heavens gain.

OUR RACE LEADER GONE

to whom Andrew Carnegie once ap-
piled the phrase-'The combined
Moses and Joshua of his people.
Washington was born in Franklin
county, Virginia, in 1858 or 1859-he
was not sure Of the date or the place,
and of his ancestry he knew almost
nothing. my mother" he once wrote,
II suppose attracted the attention Of
purchaser who was afterward my
owner and hers. OF my father I know
even less than of my mother. l do
not even know his name" f.. r..
When freedom came through Lin
coins proclamation Booker was put
to work by his stepfather in a West
Virginia salt furnace. Schooling was
intermittent. He learned his first
written symbols on salt barrel. He
obtained work in q coal mine and later
made his way to Hampton Institute,
where he worked his way through and
was given place on the faculty.
Then Tuskegee Institute was start
ed by the joint efforts Of Colonel
George W. Campbell, an sex-slaye
owner, and Lewis Adams, an ex-slave,
both of Tuskegee. They conceived the
idea of establishing normal and in
dustrial school for Negroes. They
wrote to Hampton Institute for man
to take charge of the work. Booker
T. Washington was sent. This was in
1881, and Washington began work
with a dilapidated shanty and an
abandoned church as the school struc-
lures and only thirty pupils. Now
there are more> than 1,5OO students,
100 buildings and $500 acres of land
valued at $2,O00,000.
Great Loss To Race.
Mrs. Ida B. Wells Barnett said:
"Our race has lost its greatest lead
ing man. Booker T. Washington was
great not only as a race leader, but
he was one of the greatest orators-I
mean oratory in it's broadest sense,
and he was the peer Of any publicist
before the country today.
"As constructive force on the
lines Of industrial education he was
the equal of any living educator. We
are wondering where we will find
his successor. There is no Negro be-
fore the public today who has the
confidence Of the influential white
people that DR.. Washington had, and
that is what makes our, loss so great.
The natural separation between the
two races can be bridged only by one
who is in ready communication with
both sides."
Tribute BY Roosevelt.
Oyster Bay, N. Y, Nov. 14.-Col-
onel Theodore Roosevelt made the fol-
lowing statement tonight on the death
Of Booker T. Washington: ?
II am deeply shocked and grieved
at the death Of DR.. Booker T. Wash
ington. He was one Of the distin-
guished citizens of the United States,
a man who rendered greater service

so DOM, also rendered great service
to the whcle country. mourn his
loss and feel that one Of the most use
full citizens of our land has gone"

JIM CROW NOTES.

We have written several articles
denouncing the jim crow notes known
as Afro-American notes appearing in
the Register and Leader as being det-
rimental to the colored people Of Des
Moines. There are many reasons why
it retards the advancement Of the
race. First, it creates the idea and
sentiment of race separation, segre-
cation and ostracism. Second, it
draws the color line, as it's designa-
ton suggests. Third, if some worthy
colored man should 60 to the Register
with worthy news about his friend the
reporters will dub it Afro-Amerlcan
notes or stick it in that column. 1t
has done more to ridicule our race
and lessen respect for them in the es-
timation of the white man, OF whom
many are disguised seeing that Miss
Jones entertained elaborately, this
club or that club entertained-such
silly, sickening news. Many OF those
es and behind in the payment OF their
entertainers are living in rented hous-
grocery bills and other honest debts.
There is a movement started to have
this column discontinued. I have my
utter contempt for any person who
will denounce and cry out against be-
ing Jim crowed, segregated or draw
ing the color line in our city theaters'
restaurants, cafes or drug stores
Then ask for separate column or
permit the color line to be drawn IN
a newspaper and furnish news for It,
Oh hypocrite, how inconsistent! Why
don't the Register have a German
American column or a Swede, Jew
or Dago column. Certainly the poor
colored race is being sold out by So
called leaders who want self-pralse
and a few pieces of silver. "
