COLORED EDITORS MEET

SESSION OF THE AFHO-AMERICAN Fit ESS ASSOCIATION YKSTKHD.W, Oilicer Elected and Addresses Delivered Programme of the Exercises Committee on Resolutions. i Election of officers for the ensuing year was the most Important event of the meeting of the Afro-American Press Association at Bethel Church yesterday. The election occurred In the afternoon and resulted In the substitution of two new officers for two who served during the year past. George L. Knox, of this city, editor of The Freeman, was chosen for the association's vice president. Instead of J. E. Bruce, of Albany, N. Y. A. L. Manly, of Martinsburg. W. Va., editor of the Dally Record. Washington. D. C, was elected secretary in place of J. R. Clifford, of Martinsburg, W. Va. Cyrus Field Adams, editor of The Appeal, of Chicago, was re-elected president, and W. H. Steward, of the American Baptist, Louisville, Ky., was again chosen treasurer. A formal programme had been prepared for both morning and afternoon sessions yesterday, but the members whose names appeared on this programme failed to put in appearance, and a new arrangement had to be made. In the morning the preliminary business of the organization was transacted. A. L. Manly was made temporary secretary, and the credentials of members were received and recorded. There was a general discussion of the outlook for the colored newspaper in the United States. A brief talk was made by Prof. R. R . Wright, president of the Georgia Industrial School for Colored Young People and an ex-newspaper editor, in which he declared for greater independence of colored editors. Mr. Wright spoke against the alleged practice of accepting money for the printing of articles in negro papers which are not in line with the best interest and development of the race. He also said the colored men would do well to read their own newspapers and encourage them by their support. T. T. Fortune, editor of the New York Age, discussed 'The AfroAmerican Editor." and showed an inclination to resent the assertion that the colored man accepts money for inserting certain articles in his paper. He declared that in reality the negro editor has stood by his race better than it has stood by him. He said what is wanted Is rather better readers instead of better editors. THE AFTERNOON SESSION. The afternoon session opened with "a short address by A. L. Manly, who told about the time when he was driven from Torth Carolina in the race riots of 1S38. The reason for his expulsion was that he took a stand which was nonpartisan and fought against the action of the people who tried to drive out the progressive element of the colored race. Prof. James Lawson, of Washington, I). C, who is an employe of the Pension Bureau, followed Mr. Manly In a three-minute talk. lie gave the interesting Information that there are 175 negro newspapers published in the United States. President Cyrus F. Adams read a letter, printed in the Chicago Record last Tuesday, from that paper's Jamaica correpondent. W. J. Thorpe, in which he narrated the equality upon which the different nationalities represented In the island dwell. The letter declared that the negroes of Jamaica are orderly and law-abiding citizens, and that a white woman is able to traverse the extent of the island without suffering the slightest indignity. Mr. Thorpe mU the progress of the negro in the island has been marvelous. He declared that the negro will not "go under," because he has too much vitality; he thrives on civilzatlon; none of the crimes alleged against the negro race in the. Southern part cf the United States are known in Jamaica, where the colored men are left to govern themselves. The writer said in conclusion that those in the United States who are seeking to solve the race problem would do well to turn their eyes toward Jamaica for valuable points. The discussion of Mr. Thorpe's letter was led by T. T. Fortune, who said he has often been called one of the "firebrands" if the colored race. He Justified this designation by making a vigorous appeal to his fellow-citizens not to submit to the treatment which he declared has been meted out to them. He referred to separate railroad coach laws for negroes and separate school laws, saying that doubtless, after a while there will be separate streets for the colored men to walk on and separate graveyards in which they must be buried. He continued, "I am in favor of getting up and denouncing these thing3. but when we do they will call us 'firebrands.' Newspapers in this town denounce us for saying that when you deny men their rights you are making desperate men. but my statement is true." At another point in his talk Mr. Fortune declared with emphasis: "I believe in telling the white men of this country that we expect of them just exactly what they expect of us," a sentence which drew forth vigorous applause from the few who were present. W. H. Steward, of Louisville, pleaded for moderation of discussion of the race question. He said the mob spirit very often prevails against a white criminal and that occasionally a white man is unjustly convicted by a jury just the same as a colored man. He cited the Caleb Powers trial at Georgetown as an example of this. Mr. Steward said that iossibly the feeling against negroes In Georgia may be due to the fact that, on account of funds for free education of the colored children, they are able to obtain educational advantages denied to the poor white children, and that the parents of the latter have become jealous. Dr. R. F. Hurley, former pastor of Bethel Church, now editor of The Christian Recorder, of Philadelphia, spoke in a manner similar to that of Mr. Fortune. "The white man of the South has got to be educated in the elements of true manhood," he said, "lie has got to learn that manhood is not found in the color of the skin. The white man of the South must be taught the elements of morality. The lawmakers of the Southern States must learn that crime is none the greater because committed by the black man." The speaker declared that the solution of the race question will never come by compromise. A statement made by him which was heartily applauded was "We ask all the rights of any citizen of this country, to vote as we please." COMMITTE ON RESOLUTIONS. At this juncture the committee on resolu tions, composed of W. M. Lewis, Miss Lll Uan T. Fox and William II. Steward, was named and directed to retire for the pur pose of drawing up a set of resolutions to be read at the night session. A commit tee was also chosen to nominate officers. This committee was made up of George R. Stewart, W. 11. A. Moore and Rev. R. F. Hurley. Its selections were unanimously indorsed by the delegates. The discussion was resumed with a plain. straightforward, eloquent plea for modera tion. made by Robert JJruce Ragby, ex record clerk of Marion county. Mr. Bag bv's speech was frequently applauded, and at the close of the session he was congratulated by many who pronounced it one of the best made during the day. He said it is the duty of the colored man to protect himself against assault, but that he should alwavs deport himself as a true gentleman. His statement that no doubt the special car laws rassed in some of the Southern States were brought about by misconduct of members of the negro race was met with ome protest, but Mr. Ragby insisted he was correct. He urged that the mass of colored people endeavor to become culti- ' vated and retlned in emulation of the ex 1 ample of their leaders. The speechmaking event of the entire day : was an address ny juoson . Lyons, regis i trar of the United States treasury, whose I p.ppearancc near the speakers' stand was the signal tor an outburst or enthusiastic 1 nnolause. Mr. Lyons commended the re marks or air. uagoy, wnos name ne said he did not know referring to him as the speaker who preceded him and elaborated on the points mane ny .Mr. uagoy. no tie clarcd that nothing will ever be accomplished by the negro abusing the white man. A little politics was injected into the proceeding by Mr. Lyons, who told hi

hearers that all the legislation by which the colored man has profited has been put upon the statute books by the party represented by Abraham Lincoln. "Let us all remember." he said, "th3t that grand old party still stands." THE HKSOLITIOX DEFEATED.

It Was nn Indorsement of President MeK in ley's Administration. At the evening session of the National Afro-American Press Association a resolution indorsing the present administration was defeated. There has been a well-defined rumor current that an attempt would be made by the Democrats to capture the convention of the Afro-American Council, which begins its session in the Senate chamber Lt the Statchouse to-day. It was said by some of those who are members of the association that the clause Indorsing the administration of McKinley was merely a ru?e to draw the enemy out into the open. If it was a ruse it was suc cessful, for William Lewis, editor of the Louisville Freeman and chairman of the committee on resolutions, had scarcely fin ished the resolutions before half a dozen members of the association wpre on their feot asking for recognition from the chairmain. The chair finally recognized Jesse L. Lawson. of Washington. Mr. Lawson said he was violently opposed to the in dorsement of any party. "I do not see. said he. "how we as an association can consistently indorse this administration. We might do so Individual ly, but we cannot as a body. What right have I to pledge the indorsement of my neighbor and what right has he to pledge my indorsement? The object of the association is the betterment, the advancement of the colored race. We cannot hope to do this by affiliation with any political party." Mr. Lawson was followed by oth ers, some of whom were in favor of adopting the resolutions as they had been read and others who were strenuous In oppos ing them. A motion to strike out the clause referring to the administration was finally carried by one vote. It Is said that the anti-adminlstrationists feel that they have gained the first blood and that they intend to make a thorough canvass of their strength and if they find that they are strong enough will introduce a resolution indorsing the candidacy of Bryan. The regular programme of last night's session began with a selection from the Freeman quartet. After a number of letters from absent members had been read by the secretary, the president of the association, Cyrus Field Adams, editor of the Appeal. Chicago, read a paper on "Some Pioneers of Afro-American Journalism." THE NATION'S STRONGHOLD. President Adams said that the ability and fitness of the press is the measure of a country's progress and its power. "The press can create and can destroy," said he, "but it Is a nation's stronghold and de fense." After paying a warm tribute to the pioneers of Afro-American journalism. among whom he mentioned Bell, Smith, Cornish, Douglass, Ward, Allen and others, Mr. Adams concluded by saying: "We should revere the memory of this noble band of men, who sacririced themselves upon the editorial altar for the race. They were poor in pocket, but noble in spirit. Their time, their talents, their money, were treely given that we who live to-day might enjoy the fruits of their labors, for it is carcely probable that they hoped to see direct results of their work. Yet some of them lived to see emancipation and en franchisement. And we who live to-day thirty-five years afterwards see the AfroAmerican making progress alorw? lines wholly unlooked for, unthought of in the dark days before the war. Grand men, great men, were those pioneers of the AfroAmerican journalism. Their work was well done and they have passed away, and, al though we cannot pierce the veil nor catch the glitter of their sail, yet may we hope that somewhere they are pressing on to victory." The paper of Mrs. Lillian Thomas Fox. of the Indianapolis News, on "Women in Journalism" was warmly applauded. "No human device, said Mrs. Fox, "holds a more exalted place in mankind's regard than does the pen. The words written by Martin Luther in a Chamber in the Wartberg prison awaiting his doom, because of his protest against the Roman faith, when meditating upon the subtle power which had quickened his words of praise to God, making them baffle the designs of his opposers whom he had caused to recognize the immutabilty or God s words, I am prompted to echo. In view of the part that vornan has taken In connection with tho most worthy events that have marked this and other epochs of the world's history prompts me to say that, the pen has been most efficiently yielded by women." At the close of the meeting Bishop Wal ters, who had come late to the meeting, was called upon by the president for a few remarks. The bishop referred to the great power exerted by the press and said that the press In conjunction with the pulpit and the schools was the greatest agency in life lor the uplift of any people. The bishon bald -this was especially true with the colored people. The race will make more rapid advancement, said he. when it reads more and thinks more. FAIL EXCURSION RATES. Lorr Fares Provided for Oat-of-Totm Merchants. Retail merchants throughout the State and within the territory of the Central Pas senger Association can now come to In dianapolis and return home under the fall excursion rates, as the rates went into ef fect yesterday. The customer pays full fare to Indianapolis, and after eloing business with a local jobber secures a certifi cate which entitles him to a one-third rate to his destination. The rates to Indianapolis will be in effect until Sept. 6 and return ing until Sept. 2b. This plan is independent of rebates given to out-of-town retail buyers by member? of the Merchants' Associa tion. M. I. BROWN'S ASSAILANTS. Arrent of Two Men Who Have Confessed to tiie Shootlufr Detective L. P. Grady, of the Big Four Railroad, after a search of several days, arrived in this city late last -night, having in custody James Williams, of Trenton, J., and Ivory Smith, of Danville, 111, both colored, who confessed to the shooting of Erakeman M. L. Brown near Riverside, O.. Thursday night. The men were caught I. ear Lawrenceburg. He had also in custody a boy who will be held as a suspect. Brown, who is In a Cincinnati hospital. was said last night to be improving and it is thought he will recover. Detective' Lucky. Catch. Detectives Gerber und Lancaster were coming down Alabama street early yesterday morning, and near New York street saw Richard Wilson, colored. He is a known thief and burglar, and has served several terms in prison for burglary. They stopped and searched him. finding a money sack containing about $13 and a $5 gold piece, wrapped in tissue paper. He was sent to police headquarters as a suspect. and about 8 No'clock Tunis Tuley. of SO:: East Michigan street, reported that his house had been entered by burglars, who got In through a side window. He Identi fied the money sack and the gold piece. Wilson was charged with the burglary. anil in Police Court a few minutes later waived examination and was held to the grand Jury. Increase In the Price of Coal. The demands of the miners for Increased wages, which was granted after the convention here in January last, has resulted in an Increase In the price of coal. Though the increase in the price of coal is not now proportionate to the increase in wages, it Is said future prices will be higher. The railroads have advanced rates and the prospects are for increase of coal prices in order to overcome these increases. Lieutenant Doyle Coming Home.

CLARK'S BARREL OF COIN

STROXG IU'MOKS OF ITS USE TO HELP THE I.DIAA DEMOCRACY. The Montana Man Want to Get Even with Senator Fairbanks, It Is Said. "Did you notice the sensational report In the Sunday Sentinel about the Republican State committee having a secret poll of Indiana, which gives the State to the Democrats by 18.000?" Chairman Ilernly was asked last night. "Yes. I read that story with a great deal of amusement and pronounce it the paramount lie of the 'campaign," Mr. Hcrnly replied. "It simply proves that the Sentinel is maintaining its reputation as the champion Ananias east of the Mississippi river. Any person that knows anything about politics knows that there has been no poll made by either party. The sixty-day poll is not due until the 6th of September and the result of it will not bo received, proba bly, for a few days'after that, although our committees throughout' the State are working very diligently, getting ready to take that poll. "I realize tliat the Democrats have had a great advantage of us in the campaign in one particular," continued Mr.Hcrnly, "and that is they have had a great deal of money and the activity shown by them throughout the State has been brought about by their liberal use and expenditure of money in perfecting their organization. A good share of this fund is going to the Indianap olis Sentinel for gratuitous circulation of that paper throughout the State, and a great deal more of their campaign fund is being expended in circulating what i3 called the National Rural, which purports o be a free silver, anti-expanslonlsts, agricultural paper, but in fact is a paper published in Chicago under the auspices of the Democratic national committee, and a large amount of this Democratic campaign fund is also. be ing expended in Marion county, in holding their tent meetings around the city and for other purposes, for the reason that the Democratic managers in Indiana are more Interested in carrying Marlon county than any other point in the State. It is appar ent that the story that was circulated at Kansas City that Senator Clarke, of Montana, agreed to donate one million dollars to the Democratic campaign fund in consideration that he be seated in that convention as a delegate, and that his faction in Montana should be recognized bv the Democratic party as against his opponent. Marcus uauy, is true, and that a large amount of that fund has already been placed to the credit of the State committee in In diana. It is well known that Senator Fairbanks voted against seating Senator Clarke, and for that reason the latter is apparently desirous tthat Indiana should be carried by the Democrats this year as a vindication of himself and to punish Senator Fairbanks for the stand that he took in declining to vote to seat a man who had been convicted of purchasing his elec tion to the United States Senate. It will stand every honest, liberty-loving voter in Indiana to be on his eruard and be active and. diligent to see that the Democratic managers in Indiana do not so use this corruption fund as to contaminate Indiana politics and thereby install Montana metnods in our State. "This man. Clarke, who was unseated by a Republican Senate for havlnir pro cured his election by corrupt and hishonest method. Is the leading Democrat of Montana, and is now the candidate for re-elec tion for the United States Senate in that State, and is said to have an income of $75.000 per month. lie believes that he can not only buy his way through Montana, but has undertaken, in this campaign, to punish the Republican party for having unseated him. He is a thorough believer in the Idea that with " hla money anything can be aecompiisnea in pontics. TIIE FA I IUI A KS 31EETIVG. Local RepnblicniiH Are Making Prep arations for It. Preparations of the most active kind are being made for the formal opening of tho Republican campaign at English's Opera House the night of Sept. 5 by Senator Fairbanks. The meeting will be presided over by John L. Griffiths. A special feature of the event will be the first public ap pearance of the Marion Marching Club in their new uniforms, which are said by those who have seen them to be unusually handsome. The club will escort the distinguished orator to the opera house. In addition, it is expected that other clubs will take an active part in the proceedings. Good music will be provided, in both vocal and instru mental forms. "We are going to make the Democrats open their eyes," said Vice Chairman Joseph u. Kealing last nieht. "Indeed we will," heartily assented State Chairman Hernly. Should Vote for McKinley. George W. McDonald, secretary of the State committee of the national Democratic party, better known as the Gold Democrats, gave out a statement yesterday in which he said: "The logical thing for Gold Demo crats to do this year is to support McKin ley. There xIs nothing in this cry of im perialism to deter Gold Democrats from supporting the President. The imperialist cry was raised after the war of the Revo lution, after the war of 1S12, against Lincoln in the latter part of the civil war and later it was changed to the cry of 'Caesarism against President Grant. Every time it has been without a semblance of foundation and this time it will scare no thinking man. I favor a government so strong that there will be no riots such as have taken place in our leading cities lately; a goevrnment so strong that American rights will be protected wherever the flag floats." Mr. McDonald is of the opinion that the great est per cent, of Indiana Gold Democrats will vote for McKinley. M. L. Clav son Will Speak. Attorney M. L. Clawson has been invited to make some speeches under the auspices of the Republican national committee. He will accept the invitation and will be at the service of the committee until Oct. 10. After that date his time will be taken up with speechmaking in Indiana. Opening: of Democratic Campaign. The Democratic State campaign will be formally opened In Tomlinson Hall Friday night. The principal speech will be made tt V Shlvplov nf Krnth Rend .Tnhn W Kern and Frank B. Burke will also prob ably be heard briefly. GRAND JURY INSTRUCTED. Jurors Told to Investigate Report of Gambling in the City. The county grand Jury met yesterday for the combined August and July sessions. Judge Alford, of the Criminal Court, when he gave the grand jury Its instructions, said he understood there was much gambling going on in the city, such as policy playing and crap shooting in cigar stores. Sundays included, and he directed the jury to make an investigation. The wide-open policy .with which gambling places and saloons have been run and the flagrant law violations, if all reports are true, should receive the Immediate attention of the grand Jury, the Judge said. A largo num ber of witnesses were examined yesterday. Frederick Kettlehake, charged with the murder of Frederick Simon, last April, filed a motion in the Criminal Court yesterday that he is a poor person, and asked coun sel. Amos Hlnes. attorney for the poor. and Henry Seyfrled were appointed his attorneys and $25 was allewed to employ a local attorney In Hamilton county, where the case was taken on change of venue. to asslat in securing a Jury.
