TALK OF FUTURE OF. NEGRO

WASHINOTON. Nov. 1. - President
' Roosevelt, Hon. James Brycs, British am-
bssaador, and Mr. Andrew Carnegie, de
livered addresses reflecting pronounced op
timism ss to the future of the negro race
here yesterday. The occasion was the In
stallation of Rev. Wilbur Patterson Thlr
k'.eld as president of Howard university
and the celebration of the fortieth anni
versary of the founding of that Institution,
which Is devoted primarily to the higher
Education of the negro. President Roose
velt admitted the hardships encountered
by the negro in his efforts towards ad
vancement, but urged that they be looked
upon as a privilege and as stimulating
great effort, for which the reward would
be equally great.
. Mr. Bryce pointed to the development of
the race during the last forty years as
being marvelous compared with the devel
opment of the Anglo-Saxon race.
It waa for Mr. Carnegie to awaken tin.
restrained ' enthusiasm by bis declaration
that It was not now the question, '"What
shall we do with the negro," but "How
can we get more of them?"

HOST EXCELLENT
HSU- TREATMENT
For Conaamptloa and Throat Troubles
Alse Common Colds.
Th camps for tuberculosis patients In
the pine foreata of Maine, established by
the Philadelphia specialist, have demon
strated a new and wonderfully successful
. phase In the treatment of pulmonary dis
eases. The remarkable stimulating effect on. tbe
respiratory organs by the reslqpus at
mosphere of the pine forest has always
been a matter of great Interest to the
medical world, and now that science has
produced a form of pine extract that Is
free from foreign matter the treatment
bas sprung Into popular prominence. The
formula as originally prescribed Is the fol
lowing: "One-half ounce Concentrated oil
of p'ne; two ounces of glycerine; half pint
of good whisky. It should be shaken thor
oughly and taken Id doses of a teaspoonfuJ
to a tablespoonful every four hours."
If this preparation be used In connection
with plenty of outdoor exercise and the
habit of taking deep, long breaths every
few minutes, patlsnts will have all the ad
vantages of the pine foreet camps right
at their own homes and the moat affective
remedy obtainable for any case of lung
trouble that is not too far advanced and
a core for any cough or cold that la
curable.

. Adrs of President. ,
President. Roosevelt, t said t
'l am glad to have the chance to come
before you and say a word of greeting and
of godspeed today. This day of your In
stallation, Mr. President, commemorates
the fortieth anniversary of the foundation
of this institution. There has been much
of sorrow and disappointment that haa
come to men not only of the colored race,
but of all races, during that forty years;
and sometimes in. looking back we fall
to realise all the progress that has been
made. Let me call attention to Just two
facts, burlng these forty years, princi
pally during the time that has elapsed
since the emancipation proclamation, the
olored cltlsens of the United States have
iccumulated property until now they have
ill told some H50.O 0,(00 worth of taxable
property In this country. During the same
forty years they have been making for
themselves homes until now there are
500,0os homes owned and occupied by the
colored cltlsens of our country.
"Ths material basis la not everything,
but It Is an Indispensable perenulslte to
moving.upward in the life of decent cltliMm
hlp, and the colored man when he ac
quires a home has taken that Indispensable
first step, and a . long, long step. I'pon
that material basis must be bntlt the
structure of the higher life, and this in
stitution haa been devoted throughout lta
(iareer to turning out nren and women who
anouia De teachers and helpers of their
own people toward Its higher life. You
hsve close upon t.'MO arraduates.
Every graduate of an Institution of learn
ing who goes out Into the world has many
difficulties' to face. Few have more diffi
culties to face than those who graduate
from this Institution. You bear a great
burden of responsibility upon your shoul
ders, men snd women, who come from this
Institution, I trust you wilt realize It and
that help will be given to you from on
high to bear it well and worthily.
You turn out men and women Into many
different professions. Of course, a peculiar
Importance attaches to those whs In after
life go Into the ministry. A minister needs
to remember, what each ons of ua here
needs to remember but he needs to re
member It more than anyone else ths truth
of the biblical saying, that "By your fruits
shall men know you."
Wood Work of Doctors.
"I hsve also taken a pecul'ar Interest,
fcecaus of having aeen the effects of their
work close at hand. In the graduates in
medicine of this university. I believe you
have all ' told graduated something Ilk
a thousand men In medicine, and I happen
to know that a peculiar meed of achieve
ment haa come to these men. I think
that the average of accomplishment has
bran particularly high on the graduate
In medicine of this Institution. I earn
estly hop that the average graduate of
your medical department will - not stay
around Washington; that he won't try
to get Into some government position;
that he won't even go to some othor large
city. I hop he will go out and dwell
among hta fellow cltlsens of color In their
own homes snd be to them not only a
healer of their bodies, but a, center for
raising them tn every part of their Uvea.
I have been atruck In traveling througa
the south to find how many colored doctors
have gone Into other business as well, as
very frequently you will find that .they
own drug stores, and I was struck by
what very nice drug stores and how pros
perous many of, them have been. I was
struck by the esteem In whlcfi they were
held, as a rule, by all of their neighbors,
and by the evident fact that each such
colored doctor who did his work well
exercised a very perceptible lnfluer.ee in
raising th standard of citisenshlp of al.
the colored cltlsens of the locality in which
h resided, t do not know a more effec
tive bit of home missionary work than It
being done in this way. I have Spoken a
word or only two of the professions Into
which the graduates qf this university go.
Wlyit I have to say, hbwever. appllus to
all. It la from thla Institution that are
graduated those who Will lead and teach
their, less fortunate fellows. Upon their
leading and teaching much depends for
their race and for their country."
Dr. Thtrkolld devoted his remarks to the
place and mission held by the university
In 'developing the alms and Ideals of mod
ern education In the life of the negro race."
Hls doctrine waa that every man had a
right to equality, of opportunity.

OKLAHOMA BECOMES A STATE
President Roosevelt Slarno Prorlama
tlon Adding; New Star to Fla.
WASHINGTON. Nov. 16.-A now star
was added to th American flag today by
the admission formally Into the union of
the state of Oklahoma. President Roose
velt at 10:1 o'clock this morning signed
the proclamation admitting the territories
of Oklahoma and Indian Territory jointly
as one of the American states. Little
formality attended the ceremony which
meant so much to the people of the two
territories. In appending his signature to
the proclamation, the president used a
pen formed from a quill plucked from the
wing of an American eajle. The pen will
be depoalted wlth.th Oklahoma Hfstorical
society.
There was absolutely no ceremony con
nected with the signing of the proclama
tion. The act waa done In the cabinet
room, to which had been admitted Sena
tors Carter and Dixon of Montana and
Warner of Missouri, besides a number of
residents of Oklahoma, most of whom are
connected with the government dopart
menta In Washington and newspaper rep
resentatives. It was exactly 10:1 o'clock when Secre
tary Loeb threw open the double doors
leading from the president's private office.
He had the proclapiatlon In his hand,
which he laid on a large snuara blotter
at the president's position at the head of
tne cabinet table. The president entered
and took his seat at once, was handed the
onff eagle quill pen by the secretary and
himself lifting the lid from the inkstand,
dipped the pen and wrote hla name in
large letters, the pen making an audible
scratch with each movement. When he
had finished his signature the president
picked lip a Small blotter with which-he
blotted his name, and then looking up,
xtlalmed:
"Oklahoma la a State."
"Oklahoma Is a state."
At this Instant Albert Hammer of Enid,
)kl., a clerk in the land office, stepped
rward and asked:
' Mr. President, n ay I have that blotterT"
The president picked up th small blotter
and handed It to him with the remark:
"There were more requests for me to use
particular pens than there are letters In
my name."
The blotter contained a distinct Im
pression of the president's signature re
vereed. The signing and all the Incidents
connected therewith occupied but one
minute and at their conclusion the presi
dent bowed himself hack to hla private
office with the remark "good morning,
gentlemen."
The slight delay from the original plan
of having the proclamation aignud at ex
actly 10 o'clock Is explained simply by the
statement that the president was occupied
with his mall up to the time he actually
algned the document. No significance la
attached to the alxteen minute delay.
Fall Teat of Proclamation.
Following Is the till ot Hie prcia.natlon:
By the president of the United Btatee of
America.
A proclamation.
Whereas, the congress of the United
Stales did, 4.y an act approved June le
1J provide that the inhabitants of the
titrrlfrirv .if fll. lu h.nt a ,,, t t I i .
L territory might, under and upon the con-
u i u u j i iic.iiixu in ttiu aui, auopi a con
stitution and become the stale of Okla
homa; And. wheress, by the said act provision
was duly made for the election of a consti
tutional convention to form a constitution
and government for the said proposod
aiate;
And. whereas. It appeara from the Infor
mation laid lefure me that such con
vention was duly elected arid such consti
tution snd state government were thereby
duly formed;
And. whereas, by the said act the ssld con
vention waa further authorised and in,
poaered to provide by ordinance for sub
mitting the said constitution to the people
of the said stat for ratification or re
jection, and likewise for the ratification or
rejection of any provisions thereof to be
by the state convention separately sub
mitted; And, whereas, It haa been certified to me,
as required by the said act, by governor
of the territory of Oklahoma and by the
Judge senior In the United Statea court of
appeals for the Indian Territory that a
majority of the legal votea cast at an
election duly provided for by Ordinance, as
required by said act, have been csst for the
adoption of aald constitution; and, where
as, a copy of the said constitution has been
certified to me, as required by said act,
together with the articles, propositions and
ordinances pertaining thereto. Including a
separate proposition for state wide pro
hibition, which has been certified to me as
having been adopted by a majority of the
electors at the election aforesaid:
Procedure Was Keg-alar.
And, whereas, it appears from the in
formation laid before me that the conven
tion, aforesaid, afler lta organization and
before the formation of the aald constitu
tion duly declared on behalf of the reopp
of the said proposed stale that they a !o, ted
the constitution of the United States;
And, whereas, It appears that the said
consutuiion and government of the pro-
fiosed atate ot Oklahoma are republican
n form, and that the said constitution
makes no distinction In civil' or Doiltlial
rights on account of race or color, and Is
not repugnant to the constitution of th
