1t took three years of training at
Hampton institute to bring me to the
point of being willing to sing Negro
songs in the presence of white people.
White minstrels with black faces have
done more than any other single agen-
cy to lower the tone of Negro music
and cause the Negro to despise his
own songs
r. Nathaniel Dett. director of vocal
music at Hampton, says:
There is no more lamentable ten
dency among certain people than the
disposition either to despise Negro
as means of race caricature; neither
is there any practice that should be
more condemned America has no
more valuable heirloom. from a his
torical. traditional or musical stand
point than these folk songs. For this
reason it should be the duty of all. es-
pecially of Negro musicians. to do ev-
erything possible to bring the songs
in their proper and full appreciation.
Negro music has suffered sufficiently
already through ragtime and popular
minstrels, and any further attempt to
keep Negro music on this low level
should be met with the indignant pro-
tests of all serious-m minded people.
"lt is imperative. in my opinion.
for people who are sincerely interest
ed in the Negro and his one unmistak-
able contribution to American civili-
zation to use every opportunity to dig
nifty the music of this people, not
merely by encouraging the Negro to
sing his folk songs in their truly beau
tiful primitive form, but also by en-
couraging him to show their possibili-
ties for use as themes for anthems,
oratorios and even operas. This will
do more than anything else to dignity
them in the estimation of educated
Negroes. s."-Southern Workman.
The Colorado statesman., 1915-12-04

Success depends upon ability to
do something useful. to perform sore
kind of service that the world wants.
Teach the Negroes how they may best
help themselves; then no one will
need to help them"
Such is the kernel of the teachings
of Booker T. Washington, who was
born a slave and died the leader of
his race.
He did more than any other one
man to solve the race problem of the
South. and he devoted his energies to
educating his people IN the practical
and industrial pursuits of life. The
message which for 33 years he ex-
pounded was that the Negro should
learn to work skillfully, to acquire
property, own his land. drive his own
mule hitched to his own wagon, milk
his own COW, raise his own crop and
keep out of debt.
That was the doctrine that took
form at Tuskegee, school that is
nothing short of a mammoth labora-
tory in which race problem is being
worked out. a public service institu-
tiOn developed by man who was born
In bondage and whom three presi-
dents of the United States called
their friend, whom university presi
dents spoke of as '-confrere." and 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 1s59-he
was not sure of the date or the place,
and of his ancestry he knew almost
nothing. My mother" he once wrote,
Il suppose attracted the attention of
purchaser who was afterward my
owner and hers. OF my father know
even less than my mother. l do not
even know his name"

Cum pTOCIdndIlOu BOOkeT WAS put
to work by his stepfather in a West
Virginia salt furnace Schooling was
intermittent. He learned his first
written symbols on a salt barrel. He
obtained work in a coal mine and later
made his way, to Hampton institute.
where he worked his way through and
was given a place on the faculty
Then Tuskegee institute was started
by the joint efforts of Col. George w.
Campbell, an ex-slave owner. and
Lewis Adams, an ex-slaye. both OF
Tuskegee. They conceived the idea
of establishing a normal and indus
trial school for Negroes. They wrote to
Hampton institute for a man to take
charge of the work. Booker T. Wash
ington was sent. This was in 1881,
and Washington began work with a
dilapidated shanty and an abandoned
church as the school structures and
only 80 pupils.
Mrs. Ida b. Wells Barrett said:
Our race has lost its greatest lead
ing man. Booker T. Washington was
great not only as race leader but
he was one of the greatest orators-I
mean oratory in its 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 wonderinw 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"
Col. Theodore Roosevelt made the
| following statement on the death of
| Booker T. Washington:
Il 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 to
his cwn race than ever had been rem
dered by anyone else, ant who, in so
| doing, also rendered great service to
| Aoo1
and feel that one of the most useful
citizens of our land has gone.'
The exposition at Chicago. August
% to September 16, in celebration of
the fiftieth anniversary of the eman-

an exhibit of more than a thousand
patents which have been granted to
those of that race. Manifestly the list
is incomplete, as it is impossible to de-
termine from the patent office records
whether an applicant and patentee is
white or colored, but much effort was
made by Henry F. Baker. who was de-
tailed by the commissioner of pat

DOWNEN WRITES INSURANCE
SETTLE OUT OF COURT

The superior court was denied the
privilege of hearing an interesting
and somewhat entangled case last
Tuesday when IL. NJ. Beck and ]. r.
Ruply effected a settlement out of
court, by the terms of which Mr..
Beck pays to Mr.. Ruply the sum of
$3.50 for the privilege of attaching
the floor and roof joists of his new
bakery building on East Main street
to the east wall of the pres snt RUBY
building, oc2uDied by the Hub store.
Last week Mr.. Ruply secured a TEN.
rorary restraining order which pro-
h'bited Mr.. Beck from proceeding
further with the building until ac-
ton on the petition for a permanent
restraining order was taken in super
Tor court. The time for hearing on
the petition was set for last Tuesday,
but the settlement out of court
quashed the proceedings. The case
49, 800 4A'NA SStihto OllS anu gave evil
dence of some unusual points for set
tlement in court. When Mr.. Beck
started work on the building he
claims to have made attempts TO
reach Mr.. Ruply by mail to secure
the latters consent to attaching to
his wall, but was unable to locate
him. Later survey Of the Ruply
property was made and it is stated
that the survey showed the east wall
ct the Ruply building to be over the
Beck property line. Believing thai
he would have no trouble in making
arrangements with Mr.. Ruply, Mr.
Beck proceeded with the build ng
but operations were brought to
standstin when a temporary re
straining order was served on Mrs
Beck.
1t is asserted that Mr.. Ruply'
claims totaled near $1,000, which Mr.
Beck refused to pay. Following tn
settlement, work on the new build
ing was resumed and it will b
rushed to completion.
