meet ng of the Na tional Negro Business League assem bled in the city of Indianapolis in jUuinbtrH and lu interest sheave by the delegates present from every part of the republic emphasizes anew the wisdom by the founders of tile League It demonstrates the influence which the League has exerted upon our great Negro population in stimulating the saving spirit among them to labor toga of those worthy to be counted with the upliftiug and conservative forges of the national citizenship In tbe brief pertl od of its ex stance it has shown that the raceia animated by the same im pulses for individual race and national uplift winch animate others of our fellowcitlzenlt and that they need only an others need it the inspiration of close association and wisp council It iis a fair conclusion from tbe fact Jpresented in this convention that the Negro people have shown their capaci ty in the entire field of manual tabor employments and that the results of their labor in tbobe employments are no lest worthof honorable records titan thos3 of others Of the ten mitten hates or cotton produced in the molted States last year eighty per cent was the j product of Negro labor while a prince ly acreage on which tho cotton was produced is now the property of these who forty years ago did not own them selves And the constant increase of the farm holding of the Negroes and of cotton and other agricultural prod ucts with lit developweet of the now Negro busiues man and therefore of tbe bankers six of whom are members of the League is not only one of tne t1mP8sbuWhen one Kansas farmer a member of the League requires 161 cars to move his annual crop of white potatoes to the market when one barber employs e 20 men when ono man manufactures carriages and buggies when one woman in a northern community can oruate a domestic science school out of nerve and persistent effort when it is shown that the race by testimony by numbers of the League are making a place intbe industrial and commerial life of the Republic in all cf the various avenue we may be reasonably encouraged in the good work we are doing U For the day cometb aud to appeal to our fa vored and fortunate fellow citizens for helpful sympathy and for the open door of opportunity without which as merchant as skilled artisan as manu al laborer our efforts will be diflicult beyond tlr + measure of other men if1 not impossible of ultimate successj I The right to labor is the right divinet our right to ilive is wrapped up in It and1 amel d I by the law of man The public opinion or the private ule

with rig idly and impartially In this connection we wish to direct attehtioh to the significant fact that the primacy of the United Slates in tbe production of cotton is tbreatended from two sources 1 the restless dis position conetatly shown by the labor er necessary to produce cotton to abandon the farm due in large part to the belief becoming general that the laws iare iuaufticient to protect him even when innocent of offense from mob vio J GerImanvi raise cotton on a largt scale in the I African territory and the persistent bid which they are hepiniug to make fo theetrains Negro laborer for the South the Germans having gone so far as to employ for a term of years at largelsalary Negro graduates of our leading industrial schools in Gorman Africa the necessities of foreigners make them desire to become free of dependenee upon Am rican markets for the cotton nectsaary to keep their spindles in ruse tion As business nun we have to ngard with apprehension any tnovemennt which threatens the continued supremacy I of the United States in the produc tion of cottonI Your committee urges that the or ganization of Leagues In neighboring towns be encouraged remembering that there iit room for all and that the widest possible usefuln ss of the League upon the people generally We also recommend ithat local Leagues associate thei efforts with those who would diecon tuuance vice and crime in their Immediate ocalities and in stimulatin members oftberrace to a lire of indus tryDLd thrift in which tbe acqdiRition of homes and lands should be a control t Hug factor I r During our discussion it has been clean developed that the race has been steadily loosing many avenues of valuable employment It is that this is largely from lack of training To meet this emergency we recommend that in order to hold our position in gainful occupations moje the t1 Mfu ftttnUo iibe glen tnu technical education of our youth as a supplement to suck training in the home as to make for fidelity and pre cision it the execution of sma lor obli gations The National tfegro Business League is very much indebted to tbe Local Bus iness League rf Indianapolis and tM the citizens generally too many to be spe cially mentioned in a resolution such as we derffe here to pre e JtJtor the generouBeffroU fo provide for the corn fort of delegates and for their many and generous provisl ms lor their

the Home Mission Board to the National Baptist Con vention in Austin Texas last week the Board affirms that after three years earnest toil we are compelled to bring this magnificent paper back to the convention and say that our Board finds it both unprofitable and impracticable to publish it under the present arrangements The paper met with flattering success for two years but the change has caused toIdaythan 60 per cent of what it was a year ago We believe that anyone of the Boards could take the paper and make it a success after a num ber of years work We therefore turn it over to the convention with whatever interest your Board may have in the paper as the Board feels the Convention is mucb better prepared to run a denominational paper and defray the expenses than any OlA Boat When this paper 1asstarted it was the consensus of opinion of many experienced and practical newspaper men that the project would not succeed Experi ence has verified that opinion and instead of the Convention conducting a paper it would be well togive support to those already established using their columns for the work of the convention as the necessity demands In this way a larger num ber of readers would be reached than any paper established by the convention could possibly do and with a very much smaller expendi tore of money THE movement to inaugurate a series ot revivals or a general revi val in this city as a cure for law lessness and immorality in this e community is no doubt prompted by the right spirit and will be successful only so far as the flood people it support and encouragement There is entirely too much of the disposition to allow these matters to take care of themselves and for that reason much that is good and wholesome fails to be as affective as it shouldt be No class of people in this com- munitY need the influence of thesep reform movements more than ours andthe excuse that the evils of which general complaint is made origina tea among others make the errors of our race none the less reprehensible norharmful The most cau anal observer must confess that the lawless and disorderly1 class of our people are increasing far too rapid ly and that they are growing auda cious and bold in their transgressions If This class must be sup tt pressed or reformed or it will be as a millstone upon the neck of the i race and will do more than its 1 share in bringing it into bad repute- dfw under censure Let the good 11work of reform begin and Christina workers lend a helping hand 1 TnVgrowtb in business enter priseet Sooog our people is one of J Jt the meet hopeful and assuring evi deices of sN ntfal pcotxees but saai of thou a are deck r edly injurious to the people and ought not to be encouraged It has not been many years since their was only one saloon in the city owned by colored men but today there must be at least a halfdozen and still there are more to follow The fact that so many applications are filed for the opening of new saloons so frequently proves that they must be profitable or other wise the parties would not desire to engage in the business It is also equally true that the saloons are doing more to degrade and destroy the young men especially of the race than any other agency On this account a strong sentiment should be created against the sa loon in the church in order that it may not multiply or destroy the good work of saving and uplifting the people This idea ofencourag ing every kind of business upon general principles is a mistake and the fact that a colored man con ducts it makes it no less harmful than if it was conducted by any other man AMONG the enterprises that the General Association of this state has established none should com mend itself more to the favor and supprt of the churches than that of the church edifice fund to help poor and needy churuhes The second Sunday in October is the designa ted time to raise collections for this work and circulars calling attention to it has already been sent out A generous response to this appeal will place the Executive Board in a position to help a number of needy and deserving chuches either in the way of loans or direct gifts Many stragetic points could be occupied with great benefit to the denomina tion if this day was observed properly and it is one of the needs of the hour to have uniformity of action in the raising of collections by the several churches for these objects If every church win bear it in mind and raise the collection let it be great or small on that daythe work of helping poor churches willtake ia definite and assuring change for the better THE indicting of the members of the mob at Huntville Ala last week for the lynching of the colored man Maples is a strong indication that public sentiment is being aroused even if conviction does not follow Some of the parties indicted are prominent in business social and political circles and this fact indi cates that those who engage in lawlessness dq not always belong to the lower classes as is sometimes believed It has been found necessary to call the militia to Huntsville in order to maintain the law and prevent the liberation of the men who have been indicted and are under arrest The officers of the law in that city and the Governor of the state ought to be sup portorted in the effort to apprehend the partis engaged in this lynching business and to mete out to them the punishment they deserve under the law THE session of the National Bap tist Convention in Austin Texas last week was the largest and most successful in the history of the or ganization The reports showed an increase in receipts and magnii tude of work in all departments The statistics show churches 16996 ordained ministers 16554 mem bersbjp 21x0269 The amended plan of

Dear Brethren The two above named days come so close together that we think it wise and best that contributions should be taken for both objects at the same time or on the same day We all know the needs of our state work yet we will again can your attention briefly to a few particular points First The Needs of this the Third Quarter We have three missionaries on the field whose sal aries must be paid as also their traveling and other expenses We reassure you that they are faithful ministers of the gospel of our Lord and Master hp are willing to spend and be sent for and in his cause and that tfctsy deserve your support and your moral influence in thegreat work of missions Second Our Church Edifice Work IITo be plain weare doing next to nothing In this class of work It use to be that we could collect money for poor churches anywhere and from any person but now with the most urgent appeals and the most prayerful Pleas though they be and sent out by your Board giving to you the names of the church condition of fields and their sur rounding In general It is so now that personal appeals cannot be successfully made for poor churches even in the associations In many instances if we appeal to church or association or individual for mission they say we are doing edu cational work thetppeal is made for education they say we are do ing missionary work And others run from church debt to pastor debt and pastor debt to church What shall we do What can we do What is to become of the denomination We have poor church es in most every condition pa mahie some have no ground some have no house some are in the courts some are ju the hands of other de Qominatiqns and some have QO pastor and i therefore they have nt preaching Now this is the condition of affairs that confronts your Board and they are before us now Missionaries callineior their sm ries and poor churches from many parts of the state begging for help We want to try L little different plan of notification this quarter and thus releave the pastors of some of the responsibility by pub fishing the appeal In the denomina tional papers and in any paper that will kindly take the matter up By this means we hope to be able to pdt the appeal and information into the bands of the laiety and friends of the work as well as In that of pastors We ask that you say as to how you want the money used for mission or for church edifice work but please doot sty for what church or field you want the money aced Leave that matter with the Board Way we in ell Wariness ask that the moderators other offices sad members of the boards take the lead in these contributions sad will all the putonud leaden of the denominsti0n lead a helping ktad We close this appeal byatttag rijddtetthat the lalaekMMHet wil- liNtb it Out the

upon me And Elisha svw itEHshasasc- enSIOn which was the sign that a double portion of his masters spirit would be granted him And he cried my father my father It is evident from Elishas devotion that Eijah was a very lovable man The stronger the character if it be also tender the deeper the devo tion it receives A noble man is stern and relentless toward sin but kind and loving to the penitent and the good The chariot of Israel and the S horsemen thereof Elijah was the strong defense of his people against idolatry hence Elisha speaks of him thus What a wall of pro tection this man was about the be lievers in the land He was thei champion standard bearer More terrible was he to Ahab and Jezebel in his invisible armour than a host of Syrians and Philstines He was the phalanx and bulwark of Is rael Krammacher Christians are Itoday the defence of any na tion Ten righteous men would have protected Sodom and Gomor rah Luther did more for Germany than all her armies And he took hold of his aiun s chtftes and rent them tn two pieces Tlje common way of expressing grief was chiefly that efiHislost to Israel and he felt be could fill the place of his great teacher It was trom the of Elijahs mantle that we have the commpn expression which says of a great man his mantle has fallen on such a one And he took the Iimanuc Itz him and smote the waters and said 1 Where is the Lord God of Eli fahrn Elisha begins his career with the miracle with which Elijahs had closed thus showing to the sons of the prophets he had been chosen by God as Elijahs successor There is no doubt in tJhe question he asks It is a pray JI to the God of Elijah to come to His help Eli sbas duty led him balk to Jericho And wherever God calls a man to go he will open a way for him If the way is not opened it is sure proof that the man is nt called to walk In it The fiftymen who had gone out upon the height to watch Elijah and Elisha as they went down to Jordan saw that the spirit of Elijah rested on Elisha and they received them as their director and chief V 1 6 This is a strange request These men had known before the ascension that God would take away Elijah that day Comment ators differ in their explanations Some think these young men were anxious to prove beyond the gainsaying of skeptical idolaters that Elijah had been translated Others that they thought his soul had gone to heaven but that his body would be left as a castoff garment and they were anxious to find and bury it Others that they thought the spirit had carried Elijah to heaven for a season as Pauland John were afterwards carriedand that the prophet was returned to earth refreshed and strengthened for his work and would be found somewhere alive and well The latter explanation seems most prob able AU which the Bible tells us is the fact of their desire to send I Fifty strollg711elzsuch as would be needed in searching the wilder ness And when they urged till he was ashamed he said Send Ashamed means that he gave up hopev of persuading them the search would be useless Lange lays the Heorew word frequently word fregaently has this meaning point but L4Irs1stencc1ts J 8J fI t itc i I ti1 r only to find the prophet was right They ought to have known from I the miracle worked at the river Jordan by Elisha and from his I I taking Elijahs place that Elisha knew his old master waS gone from earth not to return But they in sisted till he yielded to importunity We should be very careful before being persistent in wishing any prayer granted to be sure the re quest is the right one H They southt three days but found him not Time enough to search the wildesness carfully for some distance from the Jordan Their search confiirmed their faith that Elijah had been translated to heaven in his body and also increased their respect for Elisha Elishas rebuke for their to take his word is a very refQsingI And the vies oj tIe city The translation of Elijah would make them have more faith in the power of his successor They come be lievmg he can and will work a miracle to aid them TIt situation of this citv is pleasant as my lord satlBeing near the passage of the Jordan it was an important point for trade I But the water is naught and tIlt ground is barren Naught is used in the sense of bad It is evident all the trouble was caused by the water and that was known by the authorities How often one thing destroys pleasure and happiness All earthly thingsh ave their draw backs The city was a pleasant onebut These men knew what to do to remedy the evil They appealed to God through his pro phe Bring me a new cruscTbe Hebrew word is different from the one used in speaking oj the widows cruise This means bowl The The cruse being new was pure from all former defilement Salt is a purifier but salt thrown in by oth er haeds even by the barrel full would have done nothing for the water A dic went forth unto the spring of tIlt watersNo doubt this is the present spring called Ain es Sultan a large spring dFwater which is tiot very cold but is very agreeable to the taste This spring is still dalled by the Jews The Fountai of Elisha c Thus saith the Lord I havt healed these waters This clearlyII shows that the salt was means whereby the healing was wrought but only an outward sign to point to the work which was su pernaturally performed Even if salt had a tendency to make the water better the smallamount that Elisha had cast into Uje water could not have effected so large a spring This water cause it is supposed much death among chil drenThe direct lesson which this incident teaches iis Gods care for the temrpopU 1 wdfare of his creatures It illustrates those words of our Lordin regard to the falling spar row tyis right to ask God to remove temporal1 iroublesHf onlyl we desire that Hshall do as seemeth him best And this healing of the waters encourages us to pray for earthly blessings The incident can be usedas an illustration In spiritual things bu teachers need to use great care in spiritualizing We have no reason to believe that salt was used for example as a type of the covenant blood nor yet that the spring was a type of sin in an otherwise beau tiful wcrld But yet the foul spring and its purification illustrates the sin of the world and its remedy- ASSOC t ATIONAL MEEFINGS IN KENTUCKY FOR 1904 First District B W E Convention Paducah May 17 First
