The Plan of Opening Stores Managed by Colored People — Unity of Action Advoceted. “Organize,” “Organize,” was the burden of the speeches delivered last night at the meeting of colored citizens of the District of Columbia held in the Vermont Avenue Baptist Church for the purpose of dis- cussing the industrial and mercantile status of the colored people here. The first move of the Union League was an attempt to induce the white merchants here to give employment to the young col- ored people as clerks and salesmen, but, having failed in this, it is said, the league then turned {ts attention to the work of encouraging the colored people here to de- velop enterprises of their own, whereby the young people could have something to do, ‘At a recent meeting of colored citizens held in this city it was agreed that there should be established among them stores that they would patronize and support. The meeting was largely attended and was called to order by Miss Nannie Bour- roughs, who said that it had been agreed that one of the stores which had been pro- posed among the colered people would be opened about the Ist of October. She said that the meeting’ was held for the purpose of interesting the colored people in the proposed establishment, so that they might give the managers their aid and co-opera~ tion. She said the greatest question ‘with her was how to help her people. She be~ lieved that there was something that everybody could do to help the race. She claimed that although the negroes of this city spent thousands of doilars in the stores of the city, yet when any young colored man or woman applied for positions in the stores he or she was refused. “She thought that this was ridiculous. The colored people, she sald, ought to be inde- pendent, and establish their owa places of business. She thought that this was the only way that the negro could win success and respect from the white race. All that she asked was the aid and the co-opera- tfon of all the colored peopie for the en- terprise when established. It wes not pro- posed to appeal to the public for funds to maintain the proposed enterprises, as had been supposed; but the capital had already been secured. What Some Speakers Said. She then introduced Dr.Walter H. Brooks, pastor of the Nineteenth Street Baptist Church. He said that one thing was cer- tain, and that was that he was profoundly interested in the serious question of how empioyment could be obtained for the hun- dreds of young men and women who have no profitable employment. He said that each year there went out ‘rom the public schools of this elty hundreds of young peo- ple, and yet when their school terms were over they had no means of obtaining a livelihood. He thought that the establish- ment of business places among the colored people would remedy this great evil, and give the young women honest and honor- able means of living. If business enterprises were established the colored people ought to give them their honest and persistent’ pport. He spoke of the large business enterprises in existence among the colored people of the south, and said that if it wes possible for the colorad peopie in the far south to keep up large es- tabif$hments of their own, that it ought to be an easy matter for the 55,000 colored people here who boast of their education and ability to operate such enterprises. ‘The next spesker was Recorder C. H. J. ‘Taylor, who said that the establishment of business places among the negroes here was an assured fact. He said that such places shculd be so established as to merit the support and patronage of every one, regardless of creed or color. He claimed that Jf the 85,000 colored people here were as interested in the business welfare of the race as they are in the religious that there would be less discrimination against the colored people, and they would find employ- ment without the necessity of having to develop enterprises of their own. The great trouble, he claimed, with the colored peo- ple was that they thought too much upon the religious side of life and not enough on the other sides. He said that al: the negro wanted was elbow room, and that he would edge his way through Ife. Organization and agitaticn, he thought, was the only way by which caste and race prejudice could be downed. The enly trouble, he thought, was that the colored people were too jealous and envious of each other.What they wanted was to establish closer ties of relationship—help each other and build up a healthy puolic sentiment favorable to themselves everywhere. Col, Carxon’s Views. Col. Perry Carson was next introduced, and he said that everybody who knew him knew that he was in favor of organization. He thought that it was strange that the colored people had no tendencies toward consolidation among themselves. The Klu- klux gangs ir the south and the midnight , assassins had not had the effect of solidify- ing the negroes. He said that the negro had to orgenize—had to show his manhood and womanhood, else he was in danger of forever remaining a slave to American prejudices. Mr. Carson was followed by Thomas L. Jones of the District bar, who urged for unity among the colored people. He took occasion to tell why the negro In the Dis- trict had been unable +o accomplish any- thing thus far. He said that this condition of affairs wi due to the fact that they did not practice what they preached. He knew pastors of colored churches who would preach all day Sunday about what the negro should do to help one another, and yet would come down to the court the next morning and pass by all of the col~ ored lawyers and retain a white one. He said that there was as much dis- crimination against the negro in his own race as there was in the white race. He said that even in the public schools there was discrimination, and that if a young woman who applied for a position as teach- er was of a dark skin that she stood no show. She had to be white and have straight hair before she could earn the pittance of a livelihood as a teacher. He said that this condition of affairs was pre- carious and calculated to do the race great injury. Until the negro learns how to re- spect and do justice to one another, he could not expect justice from other sources. In concluding, Mr. Jones urged. union among bis people, as being calculated to help solve the negro problem and to lift his race to a higher plane of intellectual Ife. He said the negro needed more race pride and must manifest more loyalty one to another. There were other speeches, after which the meeting was adjourned. —_—__ Eduentors Disagree. From the Galveston Dafly News. The school board of Toronto, Canada, is in trouble over a bloomer outbréak. One of its members recently made a motion that the school inspectors be required to report to the board the names of all the women teachers who rode bicycles “in mele attire, commonly called bloomer: He in- sisted that they were immodest and un- becoming, and that they furnished a bad example to the young girls who were at- tending the public schools. He also de- clared that this costume would never be worn by women generally, because to leok well it must be worn by a well-formed woman, and three-forths of the women were not well formed and would never care to wear a Gress showing that such was the case. These remarks aroused the ir- dignation of a slender woman member of the board, who is a doctor. She declar- ed that it was for women to decide what was modest and becoming in the satter of dress and what kind was most conducive to heaith and comfort. The motion to keep the women out of man’s habilimental prerogatives failed, but it turned out that there was a city ordinance “forbidding women to appear in public in the attire cf men.” —___-—+-0+_____ The Star Out of Town.
