must be given larger place in our
thought, because it is this kind o.
trailing that gives us most of the
leaders in state, as well as in church.
Recent investigation has shown that
upward of rs per cent of the mem
bers of our present National Congress
were educated in church schools.
Only that system of education in
which God has a large place will give
to the young man of the world noble
ideals and the largest possible vision.
AS We enter new century let us look
conditions quarely in the face and lay
greater stress upon our colleges. Let
no thought of retraction linger with
us, but on all sides let the watchword
be Onward! Upward!! Forward!!!
Upon one occasion, when his forces
had been repulsed, Napoleon ordered
his drummer boy to beat retreat.
The boy replied that he had never
learned how to beat retreat. His
master had never SO taught him. He
always taught him to beat a charge
and he could then beat a charge that
would send the broken columns for
ward with an impetus that would be
ifresistible. ''Beat charge then,'
was the command, which was obeyed,
and Napoleon's forces rallied, went
forward and plucked victory from ap-
parent defeat.
If, among us at any time there is
heard the voice of the faint-hearted
calling for retreat in our educational
activities, let it be known now and
for all time to come that the drum
mer boys of our battalion have never
learned to beat a retreat. They did
not so learn from Allen and Payne,
nor have they so learned from their
successors The watchword of the
gallant sons of Allen has ever been
and must ever be, "Onward and Up
ward for Christ Our King"
The Colorado statesman., 1916-06-10

One J. NJ. Hoffman of $40 River
side Drive, New York City, has re-
turned from the Belgian Congo, Afri-
ca, and tells a highly exciting story
to the effect that the use of 10000
native Africans as troops by the AL
lies makes for a dangerous precedent
and menaces the safety of the white
man in Africa in case of an uprising
of the natives.
Before this" says Hoffman. "the
native African has been taught that a
white mans body is inviolate, but this
employment of natives as soldiers will
teach them that the white man is not
to be feared any more"
Ut has Cor years been the custom OF
the Belgian government to use force
and cruel torture in intimidating the
native African laborers, but it is en-
tirely probable, according to Hoffman,
that this cannot be successfully done
in the future.

Governor Whitman Of New York
Pays A Great Tribute To The
Late DR.. Booker 7. Washington

In speaking of Booker T. Washing
ton at the bazaar given at Manhattan
Casino, New York, in aid of the Book
er It. Washington Memorial Fund,
Governor Whitman paid great
tribute to the ate'Tuskegeean when,
among other things, he said:
"a great monument in all justice,
should be erected to Booker T. Wash
ington, and in the building of this
monum ent the white race should be
permitted to share, for this man be-
longed to the United States-to Amer
lea itself. But the monument he most
deserves-the memorial he could have
most loved-is not to be chiseled from
marble or wrought in imperishable
bronze. His memory should be i'm
n ortalized in the nobler lives of the
people for whom he lived and to
whom he pointed the way"
The great lesson to be derived from
the life of Booker T. Washington, ac-
cording to the Governor, was that no
reward could be won except by proof
of merit. The finest protest against
injustice, he said, lay in the continual
der onstra ton of a races capacity to
make noble use of opportunity"
THE old dream of a Negro govern
rent in another land was foolish
dream" declared Gcv. Whitman. "You
are here, you are part and parcel OF
America, and there can be no pro-
gross in which you are not consid-
cred. The greatest monument that
you can erect TO Booker T. Wash 'ng-
ton is the recognition of your duties
as citizens and Americans and the
whole-souled fulfillment of those obli
cations in such a manner as not only
to prove your work but to prove the
wisdom of the great democratic ex-
pertinent"
The Governor said the race problem
had as yet not been completely solved,
but, If the problem had not been
solved. Booker r. Washington had
made clear the one true solution, by
encouraging the Negro to higher self
development.

Washington, May 31.-(Special Cor
respondence)-De the unfair
discrimination characteristic of Dem
ocratic legislation, Congressman Will
liam Mckinley, of Illinois, has pre-
sented some facts which every voter
should keep in mind. Republicans
have never asked for protection for
Northern industries alone, but have
advocated nationwide policy of
protection. The present administra-
ton, under control of Senators and
Representatives from the South, has
legislated for the benefit of the Soutr
at every opportunity. Mr.. Mckinley
said:
In 1915 four Southern states paid
into the United States Treasury less
than $1,OO0OOO incomes taxes. At the
same time the state of Illinois and
three other Northern states paid into
the Treasury over $42,O00,000 of in
come tax, or about fifty times as
much as the amount paid by four
Southern states.

PULLMAN EMPLOYEES CAN
BUY PULLMAN STOCK

Chicago, Ill-The Pullman Com
pany has announced that employees of
the company, who have been in the
service a year or more, will be al
lowed to purchase shares of Pullman
stock on the installment plan at $155
per share, which is $40 less than cur
rent market quotations.
Employees who receive salary of
$500 or less per year may purchase
one share, with an increase of one
share for each $500 of salary. The
stock is to be paid for at the rate of
81 per share each month. Dividends
are payable to employees from date
of purchase, but 4 per cent interest
is required on deferred payments.

RACE NEWS
GATHERED FROM VARIOUS SOURCES

credits bill should be called "a bill to
collect money from the farmers and
business men of Illinois and Northern
states to loan, through the govern
ment. to cotton planters of the South
This is the exact effect of the bill if
it becomes law. The Illinois farmer
now borrows money at per cent and
a small commission; therefore this
bill, with it's provision to loan at 6
per cent. will be of no benefit to the
Illinois farmer.
This bill provides that twelve loan
banks shall be distributed over the
United States, the capital of each to
be not less than three-fourths of a
million dollars, this money to be pro-
yided by the government without in
terest in case private capital is not
subscribed.
when the locations for the twelve
loan banks are selected does any one
doubt the South will be literally sup
piled?
MANY of our Southern friends on
this floor, during the discussion of
this bill, have told us that the private
capital of the South is loaned at from
8 per cent to 20 per cent per year..
That makes it plain that Southern
money Will not be subscribed for
stock in the loan banks located in the
South and that the United States gov
ernment will be compelled to provide
the capital.
This means that the farmers and
business men of Illinois and the North
must pay in this money in the shape
OF taxes, as they now do under the
present income tax and tariff laws
Another appropriate title for this
bill is to call it bill to provide s10.-
100000 in salaries per year to be paid
out of the United States Treasury to
deserving Democrats.
'1he bill expressly provides that
the appointments unCer this law shall
not be under the civil service. 1t
permits the board appointed by Presi-
dent Wilson to appoint an unlimited
number OF examiners over the United
States at an unlimited salary. This
money to be paid out of the Treasury
of the United States and not charged
up to the borrower.
What an elegant political machine.
No wonder, Mr.. Speaker, that the
Democratic majority in the House
promptly voted down an amendment
offered by the Republicans to put un-
der civil service these men and thous-
ands of other positions provided for
in this bill.
Il repeat that it is bill to build up
a huge army of Democratic office
holders and a sectional bill to furnish
money to the South at the expense of
the North"

Its Function.
The first high function of the de-
nominational college is to encourage
and perpetuate that form of higher
education in which deep learning and
fervent piety are one and inseparable.
Its claim to be denominational rests,
not upon the assumption that it
teaches "sectarianism" or religions,
but, rather, upon the fact that it is
pervaded by religious atmosphere.
Its function is to give to the world a
heart, along with cultivated mind.
Experience has shown that that sys-
tenn of education which provides for
the training of the intellect while the
heart is left neglected, will not and
cannot produce high and unselfish
leadership. President Woodrow Will
son, though greatly confused in his
foreign policy, is unusually clear on
this point Says he: Scholarship has
always been most fruitful when asso-
ciated with religion"
And it is for this cause the church
college must be maintained at any
cost. The A. M. E. Church is commit
ted to the belief that all genuine edu-
cation must not only extend back to
Greece the beautiful, and to Rome the
mighty for its foundation in ancient
literature and legal science, but it
must also traverse the land of Judea
and touch Jerusalem, the holy city,
for its fundamentals In religion This
is the kind of training that affords
safe and sane leadership, and 1t is
for this type the church of God con-
tends.
Its Place.
And not only do we contend for the
highest and best in mental and spiri-
tual culture. but history shows that
the A. M. e. College, along with the
other UNCONVENTIONAL colleges, has a
large place in American civilization.
Notwithstanding the fact that the
church school is sometimes branded
as being "sectarian" and narrow, and
that there is a growing tendency
among denominational colleges to go
over into the non-sectarian column in
order to become eligible for appropria-

Our DenOmi-
national College
Address Delivered at A. M E. General Conference, Phil
adelpha BY Rev. R. L. Pope D.

After one hundred years of exist
ence as a Christian church, from ev-
cry quarter Of the globe we have come
up to this good day and to this his
toric spot made sacred by the mem
ory of our founder-Richard Allen
to this our meant of TRANSPORTATION,
to rejoice over the achievements of
the past and to gather inspiration and
wisdom for the future. And while our
mistakes have been many, our achieve
ments, short of our aspirations, and
although at times our anxiety for
place has outstripped our passion for
souls, still it has pleased the Father
of Mercies and the God of all comfort,
to so use us in the accomplishment
of his divine purposes that, with
David, we are forced to exclaim: "The
Lord hath done great things for us,
whereof we are glad And the great
things done for us are nowhere more
apparent than in the work of the
schools and colleges.
1t is inspiring to review the magnif
iSChb eil hiy vi 1AiiOi, Ooo,ooO oeiohS,
keeping pace to the music of the
"Fatherhood of God and the brother
hood of man." it is animating to re-
count the splendid array Of churches
which have been erected in city, ham,
let and backwoods throughout this
broad land by poor but faithful and
determined people as their monument
of wood and stone to their faith in
the God of heaven as interpreted by
the Church of Allen; it is refreshing
to think of our financial department
handling its hundreds of thousands
annually with which the machinery
of the Church is oiled and kept in
running condition; or on our mission
ary department, with it's scores of
missionaries stationed on our border
land, on the coast of Africa and on
the isles of the sea; or on the Sun
day School Union, with its peerless
printing plant and growing produc-
tion Of healthful literature; or On the
Allen C. E. League, with its youthful
multitude being drilled for active
service; or on our publication depart
ment, with its brilliant Quarterly
Review" and weekly Recorders; or on
that division of our activities desig-
mated the Church Extension-the fire
department of the church" l repeat,
it is exhilarating to examine the fine
achievements which have been
brought to pass through these depart
ments, but it is more inspiring to re-
view the work of the Church College,
which has made the men who man
these departments, and who have
brought to pass the great and high
things which have made the one hun
dred years of our existence bright
and glorious. o
If l were called upon to put on ex-
hibition the finest production of the
A. M. e. Church during the century

paratively little for such an exhibit.

creditably upon our thrift, frugality
and esthetic taste, would not put

TAKES OWN LIFE AFTER TRYING TO KILL OLD ENEMY

Danie1sea, Conn.,, Sept. 2s-jofn Sault, a factory hand, father of ten children and probably deranged men, tally, tried to kill Harry Fisher, with whom he had had as recent quarrel, in the Quinnabaug Mills, today. Sault then cut his own throat and died af- forwards.
 Sault and Fisher had been machine fixers in the spinning department of the mills for many years and, al- though fellow workers, the one had not spoken to the other, it is believed, for ten years. But no one knows of any quarrel recently.
 This morning both men were at the mill early. Fisher started up a flight of stairs to the spinning room. s;ault was at the head of the stairs waiting He threw an iron weight Which felled Fisher and he rolled down. Sault dropped another weight on Fisher and then, going downstairs, hit and pummelled hinf in the face. The opinion of other employees is that Sault, thinking he had killed Fisher, went upstairs again and, using a razor killed himself.
 Sault is said to have been acting queerly of late. He leaves in addi- ton to the children, a widow.
