corner.
We have been warned about going
down the street of the international

the favorite avenue of riots and we
are told to go to our room, lock our
selves in and stay there till we are
taken out by our soldiers-that the
Mexicans may surprise our side but
that they can be overcome and driver

CONFERENCE OF EDUCATORS
TO MEET AT DURHAM, N. C.
Atlanta Constitution Highly Approves
Of Meeting Called For Nov. II.

The following editorial from the At
lanta Constitution Of Tuesday, Sept.
10, Is significant of three things-frst,
the constantly widening influence of
the National Training school at Dur
ham, N. CS second, the timely interest
which a large and increasing number
OF the white people Of the south man
fest in the educational work for col
ored people, their growing friendliness
toward members of our race who show
proper interest In racial affairs, and,
third the genuine approval Of the able
and constructive leadership Of DR..
James Il. Shepard, founder and presi-
dent of the institution.
The Constitution says:
"a conference for Negro education
has been called by James e. Shepard,
president of the National Training
School For Negroes at Durham, N. c..
to meet In that city Nov. 21-24 next
to which all interested in the better
ment Of Negro education are cordially
invited
"It Is noteworthy that this confer
ence proposes to deal with the subject
upon q business basis-upon a basis
of results that will best equip the Ne
gro for substantial self support and
aid him most In self sustaining ca
reer.
"This is the kind of work the lead
ing educational institutions for the Ne
gro, located in the south and fostered
and assisted by the white people In
this as well as In other sections. are
now doing.
"The National Training school at
Durham is one of these as is also
Tuskegee institute. There are others
institutions that are teaching the Ne
gro trade. an industrial occupation
which not only makes him independ-
ent, but makes him capable Of render
ing a service which is in constant de-
mand and through which he can al
ways earn livelihood.
1.-THE Durham conference will deal
with live questions concerning the Ne
gro education. Moreover, II any one
has any particular ideas about the bet
terment of the Negroes condition upon
these lines this conference will furnish
him an opportunity to present It, The
work is one to which the white people
OF the south can well afford to lend
their encouragement and assistance.
Education that will make the Negro
a better and more capable citizen
and which, I'm the Industrial world and
where he has the ambition and ability
VIII lift him above the plane OF the
ordinary laborer will not only help the
Negro race, but 1t will help conditions
among both races In the south.
"The opportunity is opening up for
him more and more every year as o
result Of such conferences as that to
be held shortly at Durham. The day Is
not far distant when there will be q
chance to take advantage of 1t. II
means self respect better employment
and better living conditions. 1t is q
good work and should be encouraged"

Commissioner Lewis Brownlow OF
the District of Columbia In an address
Of welcome to the Grand United Order
of Odd Fellows, which held Its eight
eenth biennial session at Washington
In August, in part said:
II welcome you not only as members
Of this order, but also as American cit
izens / am glad when fraternal or
ders meet in Washington, because 1t
gives Americans an opportunity to see
their capital l wish especially to well
come those of you who are In this city
for the first time.
Washington is the metropolis OF the
colored race. There are more eolored
persons here than in any other city of
the United States. They form an In
tegral part of the citizenship of which
Washington is proud.
1--WE are now completing a well
equipped colored high school, named
for Paul Dunbar, the great Negro poet.
1t is to be the most advanced institu-
tion ever erected devoted exclusively
to the education Of the colofed race.
We try In Washington to give equal op-
portunities of education to the colored
race"
The response to Commissioner Brown
lows address was made by Professor
William Pickens, dean of Morgan col
lege, Baltimore, who said:
"The Negro in America has always
proved himself faithful and loyal to
the flag. No one, not even the Negroes
worst enemy, has ever questioned his
patriotism. No one has asked him what
country he would stand by in case of
war between this and any other power

groes' best friends are In the north or

HUNDRED GARMENT WORKERS
QUIT JOBS
Declare Employers Refused to Grant
Wage Increase.

More than hundred garment work
ers employed by II. A. Seinsheimer &
Co, located in the Pugh Building at
Fourth and Pike streets, went on a
strike Thursday after the management
of the concern had refused to grant
them a 10 per cent increase in wages
The demands were presented last Mon
day, it was said by Attorney Nicholas
Klein, who represents the local branch
of the Amalgamated Clothing Workers
of America. Most Of the strikers are
women. They reported for work at the
regular hour, but shortly afterwards
walked out of their shop. The strikers
ask for restoration of their wages to the
point where it was three years ago,
when the garment workers lost their
strike and suffered cut of ten per cent.
Seven of the employees remained at
work, it was said.
The strikers met at 1872 West Fifth
street after they had left their machines.
The meeting was addressed by Attorney
Klein and Miss Lottie Burk, organizer
The workers decided to remain out until
they had gained their demands.
H. A. Seinsheimer, of H. A. Seins-
heimer & Co., stated that he had been
asked to make increases in wages which
he could not meet.
