The. INFLUENCE OF EASTER.
Everybody Needs the Message, "Riss to
NeWness of Life,I

No one may account himself free
from the spiritual teaching of Easter
day because he may consider the
Christian faith concerning it romantic.
fictitious, poetic, allegorical. None the
less Is the practical, personal truth
emphasized, that everybody needs the
message Of Easter. Rise to Newness
Of Life"
Is he In all respects the noble being
he would have his friends consider
him? Is his influence always on the
side Of that which is high and true?
II man is only that which God
knows him to be is there not room for
Improvement in every ones life? Self
examination and honest, sober
thought will surely teach every one of
us that there are nobler aims, purer
motives, higher attainments than any
which We have ever heretofore known,
for the exhortation has to do not only
with private, personal character, but
with domestic conduct, social relation
ships, business associations and the du-
ties Of citizen. Let us cast away the
works OF darkness and put upon us
the armor Of light, laying aside much
that now fills our life and mars our
conduct and rising to newness of life
with heads erect in the consciousness
OF breathing purer atmosphere and
dwelling in the glorious sunshine of

NEW YORK CENTRAL EMPLOYS
NEGROES.
Hundreds Of Baggage Handlers, EIeva
tor Men and Car Cleaners, Get
Permanent Positions When
White UunIon Men Go Out
On Strike,

The New York Central Railroad re-
placed about 600 white employees who
went on strike with Negroes. They
have been given permanent positions as
baggage handlers, car cleaners and
elevator men in the mammoth New York
Central station and yards.
AT the time white union EMPLOYEES
filling these positions suddenly walked
out, leaving the officials helplessly, It
seemed, In a hole. Night Station Master
Hutchinson had nothing other to do than
press the hundreds Of Negro red caps
into the service, and they saved the
situation for the moment.
The most important positions being
conducted by Negroes are open at the
Grand Central Terminal Scores have
been employed to operate in this big sta
ton, from foremen in the baggage de-
partment to truck runners and through
the efficient instruction Of Chief James
Williams, OF the Red Caps, assisted by
Tom Marlborough, the men learned to
run trucks In few hours, which is a
very cautious undertaking. The most
pleasing feature to those who have been
employed at the Grand Central was an
order issued by the management, stating
that their positions would be permanent
as long as they could make good in the
different posts assigned them. It is pre-
dicted that the majority Of those who
nave been employed will not only make
good, but will be promoted to more i'm
portant positions which are promised
them.

The assault on Port Hudson was

A coLoRED CANDIDATE.
Leading White Paper Endorses Neoro
Candidate

Perhaps it is not proper for us to
speak editorially, but so far as we are
individually concerned, we are free to
say that we propose to vote for Ralph
w. Tyler for one of the so-called big
four delegates to the Republican ma
tional convention. We will do this, first,
because Mr.. Tyler is worthy man and
will honor Ohio in the delegation; second,
because he Is respected representative
OF a people who have always been faith
full to the Republican party; third, be-
cause he was removed from an office
which he was filling with great credit,
because he was a Republican; fourth,
because self-constituted directory has
assumed to name this delegation without
consulting the people. Any one Of these
reasons are sufficient to prompt a man
to vote for Mr.. Tyler and taking them
altogether, they are invincible, and we
say this without any reflection upon the
other gentlemen themselves who have
been named on the delegation. Now is
a good opportunity for the Republican
party to show in modest way its ap-
probation Of the Negro vote.-Ohio State
Journal.

From the Department of the Pres.
National Association of Colored
Women's Clubs.

Easily, the greatest forward rae,
movement of the age is the Nationa
Association of Colored Women.
Clubs, and the leading spirit amone
them the President; Mrs. Booker T
Washington. Emerging from the
gloom which has recently enveloped
her, she has apparently re-consecra.
ted her life to the uplift of the race
and by her helpful messages of encour.
agement to club leaders all all over
the country is inspiring officers, de-
partment heads and members to a
greater activity than ever before been
evinced in the work.
The next Biennial will be held at
Baltimore, Nd, in August. Mrs.
Washington presiding.
This meeting bids fair to be the
most interesting in the history of the
Association. The meeting in 1912 at
Hampton was intensely interesting
and inspiring; that at Wilberforce in
1914 was wonderful and far reaching
in its effects - wonderful group of
women, showing remarkable insight
in the philosophy of life and demon
strating constructive ability which
portends wonderful results in the next
few years.
"On to Baltimore" is the slogan of
every race organization of women.
and were the women (and the men)

BY courtesy of the editor I shall
from time to time issue information
through the columns of this paper,
relative to the great Biennial at Bal
timore in August.

ST. LOUIS SEGREGATION LAW Is
ENJOlNED.

st. Louis, April S.-Enforcement O,
the Negro segregation ordinance of ST
Louis has been enjoined by Federal Dis
trict Judge d. P. Dyer, who said he made
the order temporary only because the
United States supreme court now is con
sidering segregation case from Louis
Vile; Ky. The ordinance prohibits whites
or blacks from living In block in which
rs per cent of the houses are occunied
by persons Of the opposite race. A man
has a right to occupy property that he
owns under the laws of the United
States and the constitution, said the
court. THE Negro Is entitled to the
same consideration and the same riphts
as a white man."

THE REV. HONORABLE ARcH1.
BALD JAMES CAREY, PHI. D.
D. D. SHOULD NOT BE
ELECTED ONE OF THE
BISHOPS OF THE A.
M. E. CHURCH.

The Twin City Star which is pub
lished in St. Paul, Mimi, and severa
other newspapers which are published
in the interest of the Colored rae,
throughout the country, are wastins
their ink and white paper in puffins
or boosting the Rev. Hon. Archibald
James Carey, Phi. D. D. D. up fo,
Bishop of the A. M. E. Church; the
conference meeting in Philadelphia
Pa, early this coming May.
1t viii be recalled that the Rev. Hon
Archibald James Carey, Ph. D. D. D.
was candidate for Bishop at the an
nual conference held in Kansas City,
Mo-, in 1912; that the great majority
OF the delegates attending that con-
ference solidly voted against him for
Bishop for they did not feel that he
was the right man for that position
and as he is more of ranting ratified
brain politician than a safe, sound and
sane preacher, he should again be de-
feated in his efforts to become one of
the Bishops at the Philadelphia con-
ference. Chicago Broad-Ax.-
Editor Julius Taylor of The Broad
AK is "off again." He forgets that The
Appeal is published in St. Paul and
Editor Adams is boosting" DR..
Carey. The Twin City Star has not
interfered in the affairs of the relig-
ious organizations. 1t has no candi-
date for the Bishopric, - has not
boosted" DR.. Carey and will not
"knock" him. We believe the rever-
end gentlemen of the A. M. E. Con-
ference will use their best judgment
without the aid or interference of
editors and bowling press
correspondents.
