Ashbie Hawkins On Thursday Night HAS CHANCE TO WIN Campaign Manager Gives Figures To Indicate This Possibility Interest this week centers in W. Ashbie Hawkins' speech of acceptance to be made at Sharp Street Church Thursday night. Crowds are expected. Placards in Mr. Hawkins' behalf have appeared throuout the city and in many homes. Indicating the possibility that the Independent candidate has a chance to win, J. Stewart Davis, manager, issued the following statement: The candidate of W. Ashleigh Hawkins for the E. F. Senate by this vote, with almost every voter in the State of Me. and That Mr. Hawkins is a N. of national reputation and distinction is also as well known. In the opinion of the writer the fact that the above named candidate is able, honest, and representative, should of itself be a sufficient reason why every colored voter should cast his ballot for W. Ashleigh Hawkins. However there are other reasons, which I shall briefly discuss. The candidacy of Mr. Hawkins is a protest against the unobscure methods of those in charge of the Republican party in the State of Maryland. It has been the false conception of the Republicans that they are our protectors. How have they protected us? What have they done for us. They've denied us representation. They will not permit us to participate in any of the deliberations, which involve us vitally. We were promised a new high school by Wm. F. Broening, before election. He has not even mentioned it since, yet he is actively urging the support of a loan of several thousands for school purposes. Galen Tait, chairman, told the reporter of the New York Herald that they generally did not feel the colored brother at election time. Is this true? Who is Mr. Tait? To say that he or any of his corps of incompetents can count on you. Mr. Weller boasts of the fact that he fought the Pat disfranchisement amendment. He had to. For if the Negro had been disfranchised, the Republican party would have been wrecked. In other words, Mr. Weller loves your vote, but he hates you. It has been said that the national ticket will be harmed. That is another untruth. You can vote for Harding, Coolidge and Hawkins. The Republicans claim that Mr. Harding needs comfortable working majority in the Senate, we grant this; why can't that majority be just as comfortable with Mr. Hawkins in the Senate as anyone else. He will be a better Republican than Mr. Weller. Lastly, Mr. Hawkins has more than an excellent chance to win. There are four candidates in the field, Hawkins, Iverson, Smith, Weller. If the Negroes of Maryland who represent one third of the vote will solidly support W. Ashleigh Hawkins, he will represent this State in the U. S. Senate. The election is as good as won. If Mr. Hawkins loses, the sin is on our shoulders. J. STEWANT DAVIS Chairman Executive Committee SHOULD DEPORT JEWS AND NEGROES Pamphlets To This Effect Being Distributed In Chicago Chicago, Ill., Sept. 23.—Patrick O'Rouke, white Irishman, is circulating pamphlets here declaring that Jews and Negroes are a national menace and ought to be deported. About 300,000 Africans should be sent home each year, and meantime the 14th Amendment should be repealed. O'Rouke grievance against Jews is that they have bought most theatres in the U. S. and use jazz musicians. Phone MT. VERNON 5534-J Cut the High Don't Buy New The Acme French Dry 641 N.

WILL GET OUT; OF HAYTI Secretary of State Says U. S. Will Withdraw When Work Is Completed Washington, D. C., Sept. 24 Denyng published charges of James Weldon Johnson and others that U. S. is trying to get control of Haiti. Secretary of State Colby issued a statement Tuesday declaring that the work of the U. S. is about completed and upon completion, the government expects to withdraw. Secretary Colby admitted that the salaries of Haitian officials had been held up, but said it was because they refused to carry out the treaty agreed upon. Coming back at the State Department, Mr. Johnson asks them to deny the slaughter of 200 natives and tell why a muzzle is on news from the island. Haitien President Only A Figurehead Haitien President Only A Figurehead Islanders Believe Executive Powerless to Prevent their Country from falling Into Hands of Whites. BUSINESS BANKRUPT Some Of The Most Fertile Acreage In World Being Deserted. BY D. D. SHURLEY Whoever invited the United States to interfere in Haiti, there is no doubt that Uncle Sam has outslayed his welcome. That the United States has fastened its mighty grip upon the threat of the little republic, reducing its president to a mere figure-head and rubber stamp, destroying its business by controlling its financial affairs, ruining the landholders and buying in the big plantations for a song, and that the island is at present time on its knees begging for the aid of colored Americans is the substance of a memorandum placed in my hands by an influential colored business man on the island. This document in part, is as follows: "The President of Haiti is only a figure-head and important to prevent the business of the country and its lands from falling into the hands of white men. There are ten ports on the island, open to foreign trade: Cape Haiti, Port de Paix, Gonives, Saint Maro, Port an Prince, Petit Greve, Miragoane, Jeremie, Cayes and Jemel. Business men in these cities are largely Haitiens by birth or naturalization. Haiti exports three-fourths of its produce to the United States and imports all of its foodstuffs from the same country." All of this trade passes through the hands of white Americans, who force Utiatis to become obligated to their for credit. The only three banking houses, National Bank of the Republic, American Foreign Banking Corporation and the Royal Banking Corporation are now all white. These banks make use of the country to develop their own business, and exploit the Utiatis. No native is encouraged, on the other hand, newly arrived white emigrants are given every advantage over natives, and when the latter object, their credit is stopped. A colored bank here backed by colored American capital could earn $100,000 the first month, and the second month, $200,000. Utiatis would desert the other institutions which are unreasonable, if they could. Two-fifths of the agricultural lands on the island lie deserted because of the lack of capital to cultivate them. This is some of the most fortile average in the world. The native in large numbers has left his home and migrated to Cuba seeking work in the sugar industry. It is then that the white American appears, backed by the banks, buys in the land for a few dollars that is worth hundreds and installs himself as master. Haiti wishes ardently for Negro colonists from America able to bring with them $2,000 which is enough to make a start on a comfortable scale."

It is pointed out that the University admits only white citizens. North Carolina Real Estate Dealer Exiled For Calling On White Woman Reported Half White PARENTS WEALTHY 30,000 REGISTER Raised Boy With White Half Sisters And Died Leaving Him Riches Woman Age 113. One Of The First To Get Her Name On The Book St. Louis, Mo., Sept. 20.—Between 30 and 40,000 men and women registered here during the past four days. Over four hundred were registered in some precincts. Perhaps the oldest registrant in the city was Mrs. Ebbie Talbert, age 113 years, who resides at 315 Gratiot St. She registered with the hope of voting, in the 7th Precinct of the 17th Ward. Philadelphia, Pa., Sept. 23.—The queer case of H. B. McRary, wealthy real estate dealer of Lexington, N. C., exiled when he was found in the home of M. Varner, white editor of a white Lexington daily was cleared up this week according to a special dispatch to the Teihune. Few cases were reported where some of the women were a little embarrassed when it came to telling their exact age under oath. But in every case they chose to tell some kind of a story rather than miss registering. 1. In reality McRary, the lovestater, is a white person with some colored blood. His mother was colored, but he was acknowledged and brought up by his white father and white mans, and inherited their money. As a child he slept in the bed of his paternal aunt. He has now two white half-sisters in Lexington who acknowledge him. CRACKERS BURN LODGE HALLS 2. The white man who is suing McFary for $100,000 for stealing the affections of his wife, had often invited him to his house as a guest to meals. It was nothing astonishing or unexpected to see him at that white man's house. Meeting Places Burned By Mob Tracking Alleged Murderer Macon, Ga., Sept. 21—Mobs amounting to 400 men with 6 blood hounds burned four lodge halls near here. The crowd was in pursuit of Josh Spillers, said to have killed a white man. Lodge buildings were burned because the fraternal organizations might raise money to aid the men to escape. 3. McRary has money. He "owns the town," and backs most of the white business enterprises. 4. And what is more important still, he just about "owns" this white man, and has backed his moving picture business and his newspaper. In fact the white owes land $25,000. RICHMOND WOMEN ARE TURNED DOWN McRary at least $24,000. Now you begin to "smell a rat." don't you? There's money at stake in this nice little game. The white man was not in New York where the press said he was on the night when the trap was sprung, but was out patiently waiting for the signal of his "watchers." We are not excusing McRary. It may be that he is an old sinner of long standing in the case, the trapping was deliberately and methodically done. Richmond, Va., Sept. 20.—Every possible help was withdrawn from colored women attempting to register here, and many failed to qualify or were turned down, because their slips were not properly made out. An appeal was sent out keep the government white. Colored women who did qualify were given severe tests. The colored man has secured the best lawyers in the state. The white citizens of the state and of the town of Lexington, are not very sympathetic with the accuser. White people are human beings too, and naturally recoil before certain degrees of pastiness. New York, Sept. 20—Patrolman Angus Beaton, transferred at eleven o'clock last Thursday morning from his post in front of the Morgan Building, to 34th street, where the Odd Fellows were parading. was thereby saved from being blown to bits in the great explosion. It is rumored that the white man is offering to compromise for a neat sum. That may mitigate the robbery, and is the usual end. For before a North Carolina jury, composed exclusively of white men, a man with colored blood stands little chance of a fair trial.

Replying to your query of August 21, allow me to say that the doors of Mexico are open at all times to immigrants without distinctions of race or color, as many colonists who have already settled here will testify. I beg leave to remain your obedient servant. For the President of the Republic. ELISSING, Private Secretary Forty-three Persons Taken In City Wide Crusade Against Vice Lancaster, Pa., Sept. 23.—Forty- three men and women were taken last Sunday from houses of immor- gality and vice, here by the police in an effort to rid the Columbia district of all that is unclean.

Today, Harper is registered again, but this time at Syracuse University, where he has been awarded a government scholarship. Harper now reads and writes—he has taught in the army—and prepared for Syracuse at the New York Electrical School, as a vocational soldier.

East African Natives Put Aside Religious Differences To Resist Rule Of White Men MURDERERS GO FREE Boast Made That No White Man Was Punished For Killing Africans 12 PAGES. Mohammedans Join Christians London, England. September 23—A newspaper article in the London Observer commenting on the recent Marcus Garvey meeting in New York has created a sensation in local political circles. The writer, Sir H. H. Johnston virtually admits that the Garveyies have some reason for wishing to drive all the white people out of Africa, and scores the British Government for its wretched treatment of natives there. Among Sir Harry's charges are: That exceptional cruelties have stained the past fifteen years of the white man's rule in East Africa, as a result of which Hammedan, Christian and pagan natives are organizing, putting aside their religious and tribal differences to resist white invasion. Among the boasts made by white Britishers in Africa is that anthi natives are dogged or shot to death for trivial offenses, "no capital punishment has ever been allied on a white man in East Africa. Either the all white juries acquire delinquents, white judges inflict trivial penalties, or rebellious public opinion forces the white governor to revise the sentence." 23,000 DIED DURING WAR "Again, in the great war, thousands and thousands of native porters were compulsorily enrolled by our government or by the military authorities in the unhappily styled 'protectorate' and the arrangements for their commissariat, their medical treatment, their lodging and clothing have been miserably inadequate, with the result that some 23,000 to 25,000 of them (it was reported) died during the pursuit of the German forces. "The survivors have retained tongues, and the power of speaking; some, even, had been mission educated and when 'Dora' (defense of the rotha act) took her hand off the mail service they have stammeringly told the outside of Africa something of their preventable sufferings and even of singular callous and sometimes cruel treatment at the hands of the military authorities. "Now the culminating incident is this. Some two months ago there occurred at Nduru, in British East Africa, cases of flogging and torture so severe that, according to a medical officer's report, in some cases, 'the flogged natives died from the torture and flogging.' These crimes seemingly were committed on a European's plantation." THOUSANDS ON EXCURSIONS Ocean City, Md., Sept. 25—Nearly ten thousand excursionists mostly from Virginia and way points arrived here last week on seven trains of more than eighty cars. These excursions are run annually by the New York, Philadelphia and Norfolk and Baltimore Cheesapeake and Atlantic Railroads after the regular season at Ocean City is over and are always well patronized. One Edition MARYLAND COMMITTEE NAMED Unofficial Announcement Is That They Are To Handle Republican Campaign In State It was unofficially announced this week that the Eastern Republican Headquarters in New York had appointed Revs. Ernest Lyon, A. L. Galanes, Junius Gray and H. M. St. Clair, of Cambridge as members from Maryland to conduct the colored end of the national campaign in this State. The committee will not handle any funds, it is said, except local contributions to the campaign, but will upon requisition draw upon the New York office for necessary expenses. Who Discovered North America Harvard Professor In New Book Proves That Negroes From Africa Sailed Here First HISTORY IN ERROR Colored People Grew Peanuts And Sweet Potatoes Here Before Columbus Was Born Boston, Mass., Sept. 23.— Who discovered America? Columbus in 1492. Not on your life. That is old stuff and nonsense founded, on myth and imagination. So says Professor Leo Wiener, white, professor of Slavic Languages in Harvard University, and he gives his proofs in a new book "AFRICA AND THE DISCOVERY OF AMERICA." According to Prof. Wiener, black men from the Guinea and Congo sailed across the Atlantic Ocean, traded with the Indians, and some of them, came to America and settled three hundred years before Christopher Columbus was born. Here are some of the proofs presented, which I have set Boston and Harvard University by the masse the more so, because Professor Wiener is an authority on the history of civilization, and has an international reputation. He points out that in Columbus accounts of his voyage to America, Columbus said he had heard of Africans reaching a cinctinent in the west, and that he went first to Africa to verify it before sailing. A good part of our present opinions about Columbus the discoverer, he adds are frauds and "horrible lies." Tobacco, Professor Wiener adds, as well as sweetpodatoes, yams, mannock and peanuts are native to Africa, and were brought here by Africans. "It is a historical fact that in 1503 Negroes in large numbers were living in America, and smoking and raising tobacco. Even the wampum belt, always that of Indian origin, I have found was an African product and the making of it was taught Indians by the Africans. (Longer excerpts from Professor Wiener's interesting book will be printed in following issues of the AFO-AMERICAN. SHOT HUBBY IN THE FOOT Chicago Woman Said She Installed On Crowding Her Out Of Chicago, Ill., Sept. 20.—Mrs. Tessie Woods, 1291 South State street, got tired last week of being pushed out of bed every night by her husband, and shot him in the foot. Her husband John, she said, was a heavy sleeper and with his heavy frame usually managed to crowd her out of bed before morning. Failure to wake him up by shooting, she said, she fired off a pistol but the bullet went crooked and hit him in the foot. NOTICE! There appeared an article in the Saturday News Sept. 18, 1920 stating that I was summoned to court to answer charges preferred against me by my wife. On Monday, Sept. 20, 4 p.m. I answered the summons. The Judge ruled that I was absolutely innocent and that the prosecuting parties should have had charges preferred against them. As a expression of thankfulness to the members and friends of the Agnes Memorial Baptist Church I publish: I especially feel deeply grateful to those who pawned their clothing and jewelry and also to the three children, the Misses Ellen Johnson, Florence Malden, and Bessie Williams, who brought all of their earthly savings, 40c, $1.11 and .4, and walked two miles in case I might good them. Also those who lost a day's labor for my interest. After returning from court the church held a reception in honor of the pastor's vindication. REV. C. O. CARTER. Pastor Agnes Mem: Baptist Church AMANDA JOHNSON. Secretary Advertisement POSSE WAS READY Then Wife Admits Husband Stabbed Her Three Times After A Quarrel Raleigh, N. C., September 23. Here is the story told by Charles Evans by the police: "I and my wife were lying in bed. A yellow Negro entered, attacked me knocking me unconscious, and stole a sum of money variously estimated at from $75 to $150. While I was unconscious, he attempted to assault my wife, and in the struggle stabbed her three times with a knife. When I recovered, both of them had gone." Such a report to local police was enough to start rumors of a posse, and a lynching to the guilty man when apprehended. It is the kind of occurrences that usually precedes mob violence, in this section. Meantime the wife, had been carried to the Rex Hospital suffering with severe gashes in her head and body, from which blood flowed profusely. Her clothing was disarranged. This is her story: "My husband and I were lying on the bed in our room. We had quarreled on account of his idleness and heavy drinking while out of work. Without warning, he reached for a dirk, stabbed me in the head, in the neck and a third time in the back. I rushed out of the house and called for help." The dirk penetrated the woman's lung and she may die. Evans, evidently attempted to commit suicide, but at the last moment lacked the nerve. The bullet entered his left shoulder. MASSACHUSETTS GETS NATIONAL GUARDS Coolidge Gives Permission For Formation Of Combat Battalion Boston, Mass., Sept. 23.—After several months of agitation Gov- ernor Coolidge has granted per- mission for the formation of a col- ored combat battalion of the Na- tional Guards. REPUBLICAN WOULDN'T DEMOCRAT WOULD Missouri State Convention Adopts Every Plank Colored People Ask St. Louis, Mo., Sept. 20.—Sta- Republicans are placed in one of the most embarrassing positions they have ever known. When the Republican and Dem- ocrats hold their state convention here last week, the Colored State League, asked both conventions to adopt the following program: 1. Enforcement of the Federal Constitution and its amendment. 2. Enactment of a Federal Law against lynching. "We favor the establishment of a Sanitarium for the treatment of tubercular Negro patients, an institution for Negro feeble-minded of the state, a school for the blind, and the establishment of an Agricultural Experiment Station. We favor the creation of a Negro Supervisor for colored schools, and the creation of an industrial Training School for Negro Boys." The Republicans turned down the colored planks with out debate. The Democrats adopted them in toto. BLACK BELT WON FOR THOMPSON Chicago Mayor Dowdaw Illinois Governor In Contest For Supremacy Chicago, Ill., Sept. 20.—In the primary election here, candidates of the Mayor William H.

SHE COULDN'T REGISTER St. Louis Miss. Was 20 Years And 364 Days Old St. Louis, Mo. Sept. 20.—Miss Sarah Washington. 3004 Lacade street, was denied registration, because she would not be 21 until the day following. Alexandria, La., Sept. 20—A long drawn out battle was ended here last week when the Louisiana Navigation, Campany, grained standard pay to its thousands of colored employees. Jev. C. E. Stewart, Local Pastor, Ready To Sail For Orient From That Post Stored Homes And Stores Scattered Everywhere Thruout City Deddy old San Francisco, the New Port of the West as it is commonly called, is a wonderful city. A pleasant, polite, and accommodating people from every part of the tube, greet one as your way is wended among these alluring shops, bazaars, stores, and residences. There is not a "Jim Grow" law written or really exercised in San Francisco. We cannot say how long this will last but so far, perfect accordance exists between all these many rays fully represented here. The Japanese and Chinese merchants are remarkable for their thrift and re- demeanment. There is hardly a city in the United States with as many real apartment houses to the square such as in this city where the ocean's rear is heard from one side while the murmur of the Sacramento River soothes the other. How the high prices of this country can exist I cannot tell for there is an abundance of fruits and grains and vegetables from one side of this country to the other. A cattle dealer who keeps on an average two thousand head of cattle on his ranch, told me, that the sold five hundred head of cattle a few days ago and only received three and one half cents per pound while hides of good grade only brought three and a quarter cents. Labor is scare everywhere. There are no factories of consequence in San Francisco, but every large concern in the country is a prominent agency here and one can buy anything that can be bought in New York or Baltimore. This remarkable city sleeps in a valley of the Coast. Range Mountains, now a broad level street running with business area while just around the corner is another rising suddenly to a high eminence where only automobiles and cable cars can reach, yet one can see the young and aged going and down them without complaint. Lucky for the city, there are no frosts, snows, or sleets, for the weather seldom changes other than an occasional rain, else these people could not travel up and down those steep hills as they do. We invited out to lunch across the city about five miles from my living place, and when I finally off the car and started to walk the house I found myself climbing a veritable mountain in highland and steepness. This hill overlooked the entire city and when once upon its crest, lunch was more than welcomed; yet this hill is almost to the point of congestion. Many of our young ladies are clerks in the large department stores, and other places. There is very little Negro business activity, they being so well favored under all circumstances that they make little effort at business enterprises. However, many of our people own very well appointed and well situated homes for we do not live in groups but very well scattered. There is not a single spot where a city blocks are devoted to rehabilitation. Now there are many serious political scandals in the city government, being investigated by the Grand jury, but above it all the name of Harding looms very large as the best Presidential possibility. The coming of Governor Cox to the city to deliver a series of speeches does not seem to stir much political patriotism. Inquiries in many and varied quarters shows an overwhelming sentiment for Senator Harding as the man who can do most for the country in its critical condition and a vote against Cox is a repudiation of the Wilson policies. Using the words of the President of a local bank "the election of Cox following the regime of Wilson, would throw this country into a muddle only rivalled by Europe itself, and we cannot afford to do it." Our young church, so well pastored, by the Rev. James Washington, is well situated and rapidly growing. Last Sunday Bishop W. A. Fountain prescheduled to the delight of the large audience. The people were glad to receive greetings from the ministry and churches of, the Baltimore Conference, brought to them by the speaker of the evening who also told of his trip to Japan and what it would mean-to our people. They were told of the many business activities of Baltimoreans, their homes, streets entirely of Negroes, wonderful church life, and also the life and work of many individuals was mentioned. Although the colored people in 'San Francisco are in a position which may tend to stifle racial, growth, the Japanese and Chinese, are teaching them what racial solidarity means. Our people have not lost their racial pride and sense of struggle for the right. Our boat is now lying at the wharf, anxiously to again plunge its 22,000 tons into the restless seas. We must therefore get our luggage in hand and ready to drop out of sight for about three weeks, only to be heard from again on the other side, of the world. Again leaving my love and best wishes with you I bid you good-by. CEAS. E. STEWART The Queen of the East Lodge No. 44 St. Marie M. P. Church, Progresses, Knights and Daughters of Samaria had a special sermon to them on Sunday Sep. 19, 1920, which was largely attended. Sermon was by the pastor, Rev. J. Johnson and we art. Mr. Bell says: "Because, in the past, Negro art has been treated with absurd contempt, we have electric lights put in parishioners all inclined now to overprase it; and because I mean to keep my head I shall doubtless by my best friends be called a fool. Judging from the available data—no great stock by the way—I should say that Negro art was entitled to badly brushed at one of the local plants last week. POLLS 10,246 VOTES Detroit, Mich., Sept. 22.—Editor Wm. P. Kemp of the Detroit Leader made an excellent showing in his recent race for the Legislat- ture from this city. Kemp recei- vied 10.246 votes. Following is the standing of the first fourteen candidates: James D. Jerome 18430 John Stevenson 17711 Milton R. Palmer 15299 Charles H. Culver 15250 G. Oliver Frick 14171 Ward Copley 13869 Albert H. Reutter 13574 George Lord 13165 Vincent P. Dacey 11850 Ralph W. Diddy 11414 Russell A. Hart 11202 George Brown 10557 Wm. P. Kemp 10246 Frank J. Potter 9834 There were 46 candidates running and 11 were to be nominated. Mr. Kemp was greatly handicapped by being stricken ill just on the eye of the campaign and was unable to take any active part in the fight which he would undoubtedly have won by a good margin had he been able to even direct the energies of his friends, who so nobly came to his aid and rendered herculean service in their efforts to put him over. NEGROES HAVE BEST OF ANCIENT ART New York, Sept. 22 — Clive Bell a London Critic, in his regular contribution to Arts and Decorations, writes about Negro sculpture and tells how he measures its worth. It may help some a lot in recognizing the value of works of median, which, for archaeological purposes begins under the Sassanians a hundred years and more before the birth of the prophet; I would compare it with Romanesque and early Italian (from Giotto to Raphael); but I would place it below all these. On the other hand, when I consider the whole corpus of black art known to us, and compare it with Assyrian, Roman, Indian, true Gothic (not Romanesque, that is to say) or late Renaissance, it seems to me that the blacks have the best of it. "And, on the whole, I should be inclined to place west and central African art, at any rate, on a level with Egyptian. Such sweeping classifications, however, are not to be taken too seriously.

Both Dead Atlanta, Ga., Sept. 23.—Alex Wilder, Negro farm hand and ex-soldier, defied death when he descended into a gas impregnated well to rescue his employer, Joe Patterson, and his son, Frank Patterson (white), both of whom had been overcome by the fumes. The herolism was unavailing. Though he succeeded in bringing both white men to the surface, their lives were extinct. Wilder, realizing what had happened, ran to his cabin a few yards away and returned with the gas mask he had worn overseas. Without hesitation he dropped into the death pit. Help had arrived and ropes were lowered to Wilder, who fastened them about the bodies of the victims. When they were hauled to the top, it was found that both men were dead. Wilder was uninjured. 58 Years in Service of Christ Teens in Service of Christ A reception and testimonial was given in honor of Rev.

He has seen the great need of the colored people of Maryland, who seem peculiarly subject to consumption, for a hospital and sanatorium where they can be healed and rescued from death. Having no such place patients suffering with the disease are kept in close contact with others, go to homes where they may be employed and so spread the disease broadcast. For a long time Senator Smith has endeavored to have the State establish such a sanatorium for colored patients as the white patients have at Sabillasville. Finally at the session of 1918 he induced the Legislature to appropriate $75,000 for this purpose and $75,000 at the 1920 session, and since that time with the co-operation of Mr. Samuel K. Dennis, Secretary of the Tuberculosis Sanatorium, has been diligently seeking to find a suitable location. After much opposition and legal difficulties a site has finally been obtained and the work of construction will soon begin. For free school books, for this sanatorium and for many other things the colored people of Maryland have reason to be grateful to Senator Smith, and to give him their earnest support. He has never failed to help any one of the race calling on him. In his report as President of the Maryked Tuberculosis Sanatorium, to the Governor in 1919, Senator Smith said Colored Tuberculosis Sanatorium We most earnestly renew our recommendations that a sufficient appropriation be made to establish and maintain at least one hospital, by way of a start, for colored tubercular patients. The difficulties, delays, and disappointments of your Board in its efforts heretofore to get such a hospital unit are sufficiently stated in the special report of the Secre- We most earnestly renew our recommendations that a sufficient appropriation be made to establish and maintain at least one hospital, by way of a start, for colored tubercular patients. The difficulties, delays, and disappointments of your Board in its efforts heretofore to get such a hospital unit are sufficiently stated in the sepecial report of the Secretary of this Board. Justice to both races demands that the present conditions intolerable when understood, be at least in some substantial measure, if not wholly, relieved. Your Board should have at least $200,000 to use for lands, buildings and equipment for such an institution, and $50,000 per year for its maintenance. The tuberculosis problem in Maryland will never be solved until really adequate provision is made for colored patients. No better solution or system of handling this problem occurs to your Board, than the one outlined in our last printed report. The vast and acute importance of the colored question justifies every effort of the medical profession and of our people generally. For your convenience we quote a short extract from our former report on this subject: 'The justice of making some suitable provision for the colored people of the State suffering from tuberculosis, has been agitated for years. Time and again the ablest physicians of the State, among them, Dr. Welch, Dr. Janeway, Dr. Fulton, Dr. Thayer, and others, have expounded and demonstrated the necessity and expediency of such action.'

It was a rainbow wedding and the bridesmaids were dressed in various colors. The maid of honor, Miss Margaret Washington, who is a cousin of the bride, wore a beautiful dress of silver cloth draped with pink and lilac tulle and carried a large hat, but filled with pink dress. The dresses of the bridesmaids: Misses Bessie B.

All of the bridesmaids were silver slippers. The bride, who was given away by her mother, wore a lovely gown of white satin draped with tulle and pearls. The bridal veil was of tulle and was draped with orange blossoms. Her slippers were of white satin.

Colored Catholics here in Baltimore do not appear to view the proposition with favor. Marcia the Catholic man whom he has been the pastor attendant for a Colored Catholic Priesthood, said: "Every Insurgent Catholic in this country is absolutely opposed to the proposed scheme to be established at Greenvilleville, which is destined to defeat the very object of its position.

FRIDAY, SEPT. 24, 1920 CHRIST WAS OF NEGRO DESCENT Rev. Harvey Johnson Quotes Bible To Prove That Ham Was Original Forefather Of Nazarene Their Language Not Hebrew But That Of The Black People of Canaan Using the scriptures as his foundation, Rev. Harvey Johnson, venerable scholar and pastor of Union Baptist Church has issued a pamphlet proving that Christ was a direct descendant of Ham, from whom spring the races. The title of Dr. Johnson's effort is "the Seed of Abraham. Who In the Fourth Chapter of Blight, the doctor declares, it is written on the Solomon, David, Jesus, and the immortal-father of Jesus Christ came then Pharise, son of John, and the parent of the black son of Nahal, and not the other sons of Nahal. Pharise, it is said, was a Cannan, and the third son of Hamile, and his mother Tamar. The Jewish addu is in error in claiming that Jesus was a son of Shom, father of the white races. Continuing: "I wish still further tion to the strenuous efforts made from time to time to time Shoen with Ham's influence. For example, the first national governments established were by Nimrod, (See Gen. 10:95) which read, "And Cush began Nimrod—and the beginning of his Jebah was Babel, and Erech, and Aacid and Caleb, in the land Shinar." This kingdom was the first ever established on the earth for the first National Government was Ham- ile. And the Hebrew Bible says that Nimrod went forth out of Shinar, into Assur, and "builted Nimrod Niveh, in Hebdah, and Calah, These same Scriptures say that "Nimrod began to be a mighty one in the earth" (see verse 2.3). Not only so but the descendants of Ham were inhabitants and settled in Europe Asia and Africa, including Egypt, Ethiopia and Mayshia, and indeed, are the heliocentric world. These the Bible facts, yet the Libraries of the world grow with volumes upon volumes to prove to the contrary." Boy, Johnson also declares it a mistake to call the present Hebrew Shinite, when the Jews, never held their own language, adopted that of the ancient Canaanites Isahl (1918) called what is now Hebrew, the language of Canaan. EVANGELIST FORD BEATEN ON TRAIN Hit by Black Jack In Hands Of Train Crew and Kicked Off Train at Connellville, Pa. Deaton with a blackhack in the hands of a member of the train crew and put off a train of the B. & O. railroad curruce to Cumberland from Pittsburgh, was the harrowing experience of Prof. E. Ford, of 1621 Presbury street, this city. Prof. Ford gave the conductor his ticket when he entered the car at Pittsburg, and in return the conductor gave him a check, which he stuffed in the edge of the seat in front of him. Sometimes afterward, Prof. Ford dozed off and was awakened by the conductor demanding his ticket. Unable to find his check, which had evidently been stolen by someone, the conductor put him off at Connellsville, Pa., members of the crew assisting him and using a blackjack to strike him over the head. The professor declares that he was dragged to the door and kicked off. Prof. Ford is well known in this city where he gave a concert at Realmist Baptist Church on Tuesday night, and also in Avalon, Pa., where he has a headquarters.

The women, he declared, would be harder to keep away from the noils than the men. On the question as to whether the churches should be open to one wing of local Kasonic order and closed to the other, the consensus of opinion was that no fraternal society shall dominate church of Christ.

An address by W. Ashble Hawkins, candidate for United States Senate, was the order of the day, but Mr. Hawkins was not present due to a misunderstanding. Mr. Hawkins understood that the hour of meeting was two o'clock, and when he appeared at that time, the ministers had listened to a sermon and departed. Very much churred, Mr. Hawkins made his apologies and may he given a hearing at a subsequent meeting of the ministers. Rev. Henry Buried. The Rev. T. A. V.

Our Colored Missions, edited by Monsignor John E. Burke, of New York, devotes the entire September issue to what is termed, "The Greatest Event in the History of the Colored Race—A Seminary to Educate Negro Boys for the Priesthood." The new school is to be established at Greenvilleville, which will be the Negro Word, who have their headquarters and a seminary for the education of wolle boys at Techny, Ill. The circular letter sent out by these priests, n part, reads as follows: "A separate religious community for Negroes, is to be established in the near future. The Society of the Divine Word will be responsible for the enterprise which has full control community. It is this feature which appeals to the Hierarchy. Whether the community may become affiliated with the Society of the Divine Word, or may in time be an independent organization, need not be decided today. At the request of Rome a start is to be made at once. For practical reasons, Greenville, Michigan has been chosen as the temporary quarters of the preparation of the Sacred Heart College. Boys who wish to become priests should be graduates from grammar school, possessed of good talent and health, above all plums and double Ordinarily, only children of Catholic parents can be considered for the Brotherhood." Colored Catholics here in Baltimore do not appear to view the proposition with favor. C. Marcellus Dorsey, the Catholic layman who has been the foremost agitator for a Colored Catholic Priesthood, said: "Every Insurgent Catholic in this country is absolutely opposed to the proposed scheme to be established at Greenville Miss., which is destined to defeat the very object for which we are contending, at the New Orleans clearly defined at the New Orleans of the Knights of Peter Claver, by Mr. John Clouser, of Galveston, Texas, who in a speech in opposition to the Convention endorsing this project, declared it was but "a Jim Crow School for the purpose of in Jim Crow Catholic Churches," educating Jim Crow Priests to work Royal G. Addison, Secretary of the Local Association of the Insurgent Catholics declared it a scheme and disgrace a Christianity that a great Church should become so impregnated and dehased by American Race prejudice that its so-called Ambassadors of Christ refuse to sit in a classroom with colored students." TO WHOM IT MAY CONCERN: I want the public to know that I am no longer janitor of St. Peter Claver's Hall or am I working around the church any more. The pastor and I had no argument; simply we did not agree on both of us renting the land. So I turned him over to the other pastor. I had $100. Dollar was due to me for two month's pay for taking care of the hall, leaving me to turn over $150. When I took charge of the hall in May, 1919, I was asked by our late pastor, Rev. J. J. Nally, to do so. I told him I would take charge of it if he would announce it. I asked him to ask me to be the first usher around the church, and he announced it from the altar. He gave me $5.00 per month for taking care of the hall. I received that $5.00 from May, 1919 until September. Now, how many houses could I buy with that amount? It has been glorified around this week that they are going to have trust in me. I got rid of me around the church; that I am buying too many houses' off the church money. I bought my property and paid for it with my hard-earned money, working hard every day. I have worked around the church ever since it has been built; about thirty years ago, has never been at the church too late for me; at the church and give me time for missions or any other service, as early as half-past four in the mornings. I did not get any pay for it and did not expect any, because it was my church, and always had good pastors. I never asked for a job around the church. I was always recommended from one pastor to the other, out of our church he recommended me to the present pastor. I have been working for the firm of N. W. James Lumber Co, for thirty one years and I have been carrying their mail bag and keys for the past twenty-five years and if I was not honest, I could not do that and any any says I am dishonest, will they them pro it, I do not care who it is.

THE CHURCH ARTICLE 3-EDEN Literature furnished free "Oh Jerusalem, Jerusalem. How off would you say that those those would say that the chicks; but ye would not." Matt. 23-37. The rude conception that most men who claim to be Christians have of God, is of itself sufficient to fill the world with many infidels and athletes. God likenes his fatherhood, his love as 100 per cent and that of our earthly parents and their love as 1 per cent. Yet while His love is infinite, His mercy plenteous; these are limited by the great word or law. Had man been made subject to the will of God, then he would not be a father. Can you, can I, make our children do the thing that is right or wrong? No. "Train up a child etc.". reason, implore, threaten, punish; but subject them to our will, as automatons, impossible. So when God made man He gave him the same will as himself to choose or refuse. Mating all other creation; God creates man, and knowing the danger of him being alone, gives him a helpmate; woman. And their union is likened to the law of God, joined together till death doth them part. No man, no judge of earth able to "put them asunder." Before sin entered the world, God told them to be fruitful and multiply (bring forth children), and it was necessary each other, for there was none else in the earth of the race of man Cain's wife (Gen. 5.4), a Abraham (Abram) married his half sister, woman was to hand in hand with her husband, and it was when she was alone that the serpent tempted her. She partook of the fruit of the forbidden tree, the fruit of which no one knows the name. Smith says it is thought to have been a citron or an orange: Josephus does not mention the name of the fruit; nor do any of the commentators. I wish I could stop at this point and show you one of the greatest wonders of God. How man can take to himself a strange woman, love her, forsake all others for her, and if that woman is endowed with the power of God, can cause the man to be a power for good in the world. When a man and a woman live together there is an operation of joining, knitting, welding of the material and spiritual parts of those two in dividuals, for good or evil. God created the first home, the first church, and the first couple were a Christian couple, married as all should be, by the Almighty. So great was Adam's love for his wife, he deliberately, willfully sinned against God (1 Tim. 2-14). Look at the contrast: Adam was willing to die to gratify self. "Jesus died to save all men from self." Adam was willing to die because he loved a woman who loved him. "Jesus died for us, when we were His enemies." "So he drove out the man, woman, and serpent from the Garden of Eden (Paradise), and an Angel with a flaming sword guarded the portals so that man would not be able to return." To be Continued In the still hours of the night, to Thee Oh God I come, Knocking, a poor lost wanderer, seeking to find a home: Thy "precious Son" sought me one day, rescued, I roam no more. "Once I was lost, but now am found." Lord, I'm coming Home. D. WEBB JOHNS Barre street near Green Rev. T. H. Skinner, pastor. 11 A. M. Schoolchurch. 2 P. M. Sunday School. 3 P. M.

Athio the jury was called Tuesday of last week, all of the cases were tried by the court until Monday, when Mrs. Caroline Jackson, charged with the larceny of $28 from a Jewish Junk Dealer came before the court and prayed a jury trial. Henry W. Nelson, 557 Bloom street and John W. Freeland, of 417-W. Biddle street were called out to serve on this jury and after hearing the case argued by both sides rendered a verdict in favor of the woman without leaving their seats. In their second case, Eva Taylor and Pearl Harris, charged on two counts with larceny of $720 from a white man, who had been enticed into a house in Josephine street were found not guilty on one count and guilty on the other. Judgment was suspended. This is the first time in recent years that colored men have been drawn on petit juries in the local courts and all three men received congratulations in the Court House on their willingness to put aside their pressing business in order to serve as jurors. Words of praise were also heard for Judge Soper, and other members of the Supreme Bench, responsible for the calling of the three men.

John Hill and Sterling Grant, Singers, marched with the band and entertained the big crowd. The uniforms of the Harrisburg men consisted of white trousers, blue coat trimmed with orange, and an orange and blue cape, black puttees and black busy hats. Each man had an electric outfit and an electric light bulb, for the parade took place at night. Commander George Cooper, leading undertaker of Harrisburg, Adj. J. L.

GAY STREET FRIDAY, SEPT. 24, 1920 Councilman McGuinn Tells Rev. Stepteau That City Committee Can Handle New Registration COMMITTEE MEETS CAREY STREET LARGEST Ostensibly To Talk Registration, But In Reality To Get Behind Republican 12,001 children to the number of 1,054, have entered the public schools of the city, and from the daily reports coming into the prin- cles, indications are that the regis- tation will be far above 12,000 at the closing hour today. Declaring that the city Republican Committee with executives in every ward and chairmen and chairwomen in every precinct is quite able to handle the registration of women as well as men, City Councilman Warner T. McGullan refused to serve this week on a special committee headed by Rev. Ernest Lyon, C. H. Stepteau and A. L. Gaines. The increase in number of pupils over last year has caused conession and discomfort in many schools, especially in the lower grades. Schools 101, 107, 110 and 112 are reported to have more pupils than they can properly take are of. This committee, whose connection with the Republican Headquarters could not be learned held a quiet meeting at Moses Hall Thursday night from which newspaper men were excluded. About twenty persons were present, and the deliberations lasted until late in the night. Rev. Lyon presided. Reports have not yet reached the school board from the Morrell Park and Canton schools and the new spaces. The total enrollment is as follows: -High School, Penns. Ave., and Dolphin St. Mason Hawkins, principle, enrollment 740, Miss Duller is the new teacher. Among those present were Mrs. Rosa J. Richardson, Mrs. Jennie Mills, Mrs. Rachel Tucker, Rev. and Mrs. Frank Williams, Rev. Junius Gray, Ernest Lyon, A. L Gaines, J. H. Bunday, Gee B. Brown, George Watty, E. B. Taylor, Rev. A. B.

Lee, principal, 640 pupils. As far as could be learned the purpose of the meetings was said to be the taking of further steps to getting out a larger number of women to register. More important, however, was the intention to support the whole Republican ticket in the November election including Mr. Weller. School 105, East street near Lexington street, H. Grafton Browne principal, 400 pupils. School 106, Hill street near sharp street, George A. Owens principal, 1,000 pupils. Five new teachers, Misses Tainwich, Gainesoes, Mickens and Reid. Some of the persons present, not knowing the purpose of the meeting before hand, and who were ardent supporters of the candidacy of W. Ashbie Hawkins left early in order to attend the monster mass meeting held at Sharp Street Church, the same night. School 107, Biddle street near Avenue, Ava. Name: B. Groomss, principal, 641 pupils. Miss Ethel cott, new teacher. School 108, Caroline street near daniel, Daniel C. Credit, principal, 55 pupils.

If every young man could see "Wild Oats" a new photo drama which had a private showing recently in New York City a few weeks ago, the average of wild oats would be reduced to a very small crop. Likewise, if all the young women could see this picture that was prepared under the direction of Dr. Royal N. Copeland, Health Commissioner there is little doubt there would be happier homes ahead of School 110, Waesche street, Wm.

The coming to New York of a farm boy who wants to take his last filing before joining the Navy. A friend, who has been afflicted, takes him in hand and shows him the dangers, and thereafter unwinds the sad story of suicide and disease that follows from association between men women. School 115.

Not connected with any other store in Baltimore City A PRIMER FOR WOMEN VOTERS. This department is being conducted by Mrs. Augusta T. Chissell, a member of the Colored Women's Suffrage Club of Maryland, for the benefit of women who wish to inform themselves in regard to their newly acquired duties and privileges as voters and citizens. Questions are invited and should be directed to Mrs. Augusta T. Chissell, care of The AFRO-AMERICAN. Potentially women are as capable as men. Just as men may be taught to do things that women do—when properly taught, women will vote, administer to the affairs of the municipality and figure conspicuously in the business world. Capability and originality have no gender. Question—Should a woman register as an "Independent"? Answer. A woman may register as an independent and at the coming election vote as she sees fit, but, she will not be able to participate in the primary election in the Spring. In Maryland the man or woman who registers as an independent cannot vote in the primaries, but in the other States the independent voter may vote in either the Democratic or Republican primary, or in any primary that he chooses. Be careful to weigh your candidates on the merit basis rather than with regard to political expediency. Question—What is meant by party platform? And where may I go to be taught how to vote? Answer—Parry platform simply means what either candidate promises to do after he is elected. The Just Government League is conducting a polling booth at its headquarters, $17. X. Charles street. You may go there and become acquainted with the whole order of things. You will also do well to attend the Thursday night meetings at the Colored Y, W. C. A. under the auspices of the Colored Women's Suffrage Club. Mr. Rice Home. Mr. John R. Rice, of 1222 Eating Street after attending the B. M.

'It hand your eyeglasses to the barber, he does not appreciate assuming responsibility for $25.00 glasses for a 25 cent show.' Don't delay a barber's meal hour, you will do it, why should he? Don't lie in the chair in a concave position, a convex position is more appropriate and comfortable; he will adjust the headrest. Do not ask the barber to work over eleven hours; he mechanic does, why should human also do. should me be, here. Don't fold your arms in the chair, you interfere with the free movement of manipulation. Do not holster barber every time you see him; find out his name, he is more autobiographical towards you. Do not tell the barber you came in to get your face and neck washed; he runs a barber shop, not a laundry. Do not open your mouth, as the barber intends to stay outside to do the shaving. Do not tell the barber you have the best razor in the world. He knows better. What suits one will not suit another. Do not tell the barber your family troubles, your aches and pains; he has troubles of his own. Besides, the porter is hired for advertising. Do not insist on advertising your brilliant imagination about the prejudice you have developed for some barber the indiscretion may be the indirect cause of unnecessary pain while passing through the evolution of a shave. Do not tell the barber "I'll hand you this tomorrow." The H. C. L. does not permit of his wasting his time that way. As regards discrimination in barbers, if in your estimation he is not good enough to cut your hair, in his own estimation he is too good to shave. He was not good enough for your beneficial benefit to be utilized for the convenience of individuals of whimsical fancy. Do not get your or your children's hair cut on Saturday if you value the friendship of your fellow shavers. Do not get your hair cut on Translational Dermatologist.

I decided to promote a bull fight myself. I completed arrangements for the hiring of the arena and got everything ready. The next thing was to learn how to fight the bull and get away’ with it, I hired a teacher and we—-my nephew, Gus: Rhodes, and _myself—began taking lessons in the national sport of Spain, The lessons were wonderful, In them T learned this thing—I was all right as Jong as T was on, the outside looking In but when I got on the inside things changed a bit. . Finally came the big day for the bull fight. ‘The purade? Fine. ‘The matadors, meaning Gus and T, ied the parade. Phere were toreadors, pteadores, bandarillas, and others mumber- ing sixteen, besides two large white horses the duty of which aus to pull the bull out after we killed him. ‘There was good music, Everything was lovely—so far, But then a ehange came, ‘The tugles sounded for the first bull o enter, ‘he creature, snorting. came from his stall, and made a mad rush towards me and T debated whether or not T should ran and jump the fenee. Bverybody applauded but 1 still wanted corran. T had one eve on-the but} and the other on the fence. By the tims I got straightoned out the bull had me down. ‘Toreador assisted and we got the hull away. T jumped up again, ready for a grandstand play, waving my cape like Bel monte, the great Spanish bull fighter, But of no avail. T was downed again. ‘Twenty-thousand people in the arena were Jaughing by that time but T couldn't see the joke. Well, T cassed the'bull a couple of times—the Spanish, nut an English bull—and T finally gave myself the gava, or, in other words, got my thoughts. ‘The crowds began to applaud. It was time to bandarilla, to stick the bull with sharp sticks (0 get him angry. But J thought T would pass uyt as the ull was sore enongh sngway, IC any: thing T wanted to make friends with him. ‘Then Tr was my duty to Kill him. — A queer feeling came over me and 1 wonder- cd what was hest far me to do, to get rid of the buil ax snon as 1 could. Tn place of the bull closing his eyes as they say they do, #his Bull saw me close my eyes, rush blindly at him ana stiek hist with the sword. Down he went, dead ax the proverbial door- nail. ‘They awarded me with the highest honor a but ngbter gels. They gave me the Geil and the cars of tie twull In came the second hut, the one my nephew was to kill, He hid horns four or five fect tong. T didn't like his tooks wt all, T said: “Gus, we came to Spain together and have warked to- gether. Gur-not ow, He Is your bull." The erewa anpliud- cd so, however that I finally eame buck into-the arena to place the Dandariiias in this bull to make him more ferveious, ‘The bull lwoked at me. T looked at him. T never got a chance to stick him with the bandarillas, He made a mad rush and 1 went over the fence, In jumping the fence T insured my finger in a most painful way.” ‘The erowds cheered but 1 didn't go buek to the arena that day to fight. s%me excuse is hette than none, American Giants Win pack JOHN: Léadue: Championshia GIVE Chicase.

To make laughter genuine it is human for that element to be in the background. In "Broadway Brevities of 1920" Williams will be seen in several incidents, or sketches. Each of these will represent the imprisonment of a distinct character, and into the characterization will go an minute of detail in attention, posture and person in the audience it looks very simple and very natural, but like all things of this sort, it is the thought behind the action which makes it so. This is also the song we all know and that these songs are always clean. They do not depend upon the off-color phrase of the misrepresentation of womenking for their appeal. This is so because Williams believes there is enough material in the world to provide those songs to the lower strangers of mankind. 18 WEST INDIAN Bert Williams was born in the West Indies, but came to the United States as a kid. He dripped into California and shortly after his arrival, he joined the stage. At that time minstrels was his (as they were, and Williams thought he would like to be a bailout in a mini-theater) stage. But at length secured a position with an organization which was to have his first performance at Bridgeville. Cal. up in the rewards of Monroe High School. At the rehearsals Williams did the "stunts" but just before the opening the stage manager came to the young actor and asked him to his first appearance on the stage. He was told to first throw his chair out; then throw his hand, and then himself. Being a young actor and author for authority, Williams followed the instructions literally. When he picked himself up and looked at the hand, he and so his doubt was postponed for three days until another instrument could be brought from San Francisco. AMBILIES ON STAGE This experience made Bort Williams an individual. It was the fastest entrance he ever made. Since that time he has come upon the stage in his own ambilable ambition fashion. And upon the lesson he learned that he was built on an experience. Alfirst he played with a motley of minister companies, setting an occasional job in one of the "bunky-tanks" or variety houses which were built on the coast, and at least once this went to Chicago. But the Pacific coast meant nothing to the East, and his work to do all over again. periment, beAMS AND WALKER Grand Fort, many experiences. Williams came of older land at Koster & Blair's as those Hall, New York, and there they thurbed for 38 weeks, supported by the New York reputation did not get them much farther than a western one, and cut was some years before they were in a position to command the attention of the men who booked vaudeville shows. But that came, and then they took tours at the head of their business came upon them. Bert Williams is sent it alone. From the vaudeville postal position Williams went into Pete. Ziegfeld "Follies," and there he played until last season, when he and Malmire "Broadway Brevities of 1820." These are the material details of the struggle which brought Bert Wilkins to the history to which justice can hardly be done in words, of the manner in which he gained the respect and admiration of the public. It is the story of a man who by consideration, modesty and the constant observation of the standards of a general society follows. The Tact that Bert Wilkins places where he does today should prove an inspiration and a help to every man who has a hard road to his destiny, by weighing the circumstances and adapting his life to conditions and giving thought to the finer things that obstacles can be overcome. BERT IS HONARY MASON when Bert Williams was in the pew with capital. In 1964, he came to know King Edward well, for that elegant monarch took endless deserts and moorlands, with Dickie Dorries. At Edinburgh, in the year, he was made a member of the Masonic order. He was raised in Waverley and took his chapter in the Scots Rifle and took it as a distinction for any man to belong to the Free Masons, as they call them. The candidate is subsequently a rigorous examination before he can be admitted, when a man is accepted in the Masonic denotes the finest qualities. Williams has a few friends, many acquaintances, best of all of admirers, best of all of to be known by Bert Williams, actor. ASSOCIATION New York, Sept. 28—Dressmakers man, man, man, of the country New York, last week, and form- national Association of Dress- Makers, Madam May, Bell, Coffe- president, Madam Marti What Democrats Do In Kansas City. By W. H. DAWLEY, JR. Kansas City, Mo., Sept. 20—Noting in last week's issue of the Afro-American, Grand Exalted Ruler, McMochen's reference to Democratic recognition and Dr. Howard M. Smith, it occurred to me that the Folk at home would like to know what their son was actually accomplishing in what some are pleased to call the "wild and woolly." You may get a glimpse from the enclosed. He is not only the efficient superintendent of this spacious Negro County Home, but was constantly at the side of the edge and saw that he did not become dismouraged in this, to say the least, not popular undertaking, while it was under way. If the old folk out at the Jackson County Home for Negroes were asked who ought to be the next president of the United States with one accord they would shout: Milles Bulger. Why? Who is Miles Bulger? What has he done? Miles Bulger is a Democrat whose party affiliation has never been questioned and is beyond reproach. What has he done? Miles Bulger has built a spacious home or the aged, outcast and homeless Negroes of Jackson County. This is a long story. We can submit here only a few details. When the Hon. H. B. Halley was governor of Missouri, the Republicans had their one chance of making life less miserable for the old Negro folk. Their intentions were good, no doubt, but they busied themselves with a colossal foat of constructing a reservoir. Before they could complete this and look after the poor, aged Negro, the State returned the Democrats to power. The Democrats found the Negroes in delipidated shacks with leaky roofs, such that in inclement weather, beds bird to be moved to dry places. The brick buildings at 1405-07 Vine street were leased and fitted up with steam heat and other conveniences to accommodate the old folk. They were installed there. A colored physician superintendent, and patron with attendants in charge and the old folk from the home at Michigan and Howard streets were transferred there. In the meantime, Miles Bulger had become Presiding Judge—Chief County Commissioner—he would be called in some States, and proposed what had been in his mind for some time, a new home for Negroes, as an imposing one had been erected for the whites. No funds was the case, nor did Peter Mulger. If the Rector would construct a reservoir that has never worked and to erect an imposing wall about the county courthouse, surely there could be found in that same place funds to shelter hungering humanity, and the fact that this humanity was black made no difference to Miles Bulger, despite unfavorable and almost abusive criticism. The architect, Mr. White, notwithstanding he was building for Negroes, added a human, sympathetic touch here and there, as noticed in the mirrors extending to the door. In old old piece of furniture, or bedding from Vine street go into the new building? Not a piece, not a stitch. These are a few reasons why the old tomb is so important. It is the president of the living states. Figures Show Kentucky And Maryland Have Largest Colored Vote New York, Sept. 29—Figures published by the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, 70 Fifth Avenue, New York, indicate that the vote of Negroes in Northern states may elect the next president. "The Negro vote this year," says the Advancement Association, "will constitute the balance of power or will approach closely to being the balance of power in 8 pivotal states where he has 165 votes in the electoral college." The states with their probable Negro vote, due to immigration and enfranchisement of women, are given Illinois, 125,000; Inlanta as follows: Illinois 135,000 ottawa 45,000 Nebraska 150,000 Maryland 150,000 Michigan 25,000 New Jersey 75,000 New York 125,000 Ohio 100,000 in each of these states the pro- gram Negro vote is larger than the number of votes necessary to sive the State.

All that without her we would lack She is in purity and black. The nappy and the violet. The pansy and the violet, The dark of all the flowers met, And gave their wealth of color in the sable beauty of her skin. Glad winds of evening are her face Gentle with love and rich in grace The blazing splendors of her eyes Are jewels from the midnight skies. Her hair—the darkness caught and curled. The ancient wonder of the world. Seems, in its strange, uncertain length. A constant crown of queenly strength. Her smile, it is the rising moon, The waking of a night in June; Her teeth are tips of white, they gleam. Like starlight in a happy dream. Her laughter is a Christmas bell Of "peace on earth and all is well!" Her voice—it is the dearest part Of all the glory in her heart. The height of joy, the deep of tears The surging passion of the years The mystery and dark of things, We feel their meanings when she sings. Her garments gracefully caress Her tender form of sinlessness. And on her hosom's curves sublime Make love's eternal rhythm and rhythm. Her thoughts are pure and every one But makes her good to look upon Daughter of God! you are divine, O, Ebon Maid and Girl of Mine! DR.

Democrats Cry "Stop Thief' While Making Away With One Hundred Fifty Electorial Votes Stolen In Dixie POOR WHITES LOSE OUT George Lockwood Declares Poor Whites Of South Politically Enslaved The two and cry that Governor Cori and his colleague have been raising throughout the country about the senate oligarchy has suddenly ceased. The Republicans have completely relied their statement concerning the alleged control of the Republican Party and have shown in every election, primary and otherwise, held up that it is the masses of the people now in control of the situation. A greater popular uprising has never been staged in the political history of the country as that which took place in Maine last Tuesday. When Woodrow Wilson, Governor Cox and all of the Dirigo State minors were held under by a vote of two to one by the Republican candidates there, has evident that even the far north, so southern administration is holding over the nation. Public spirited citizens of Maine have been asking questions as to why the South should stronger dominate America by her fraudulent election and her consequently voted voters. A prominent elected George A Lutz of Old Town, Maine, Derring to the editor of the National Populist in the issue of September 14, says: As one who is greatly interested in all that pertains to the welfare of our great country and a reader of your available paper, I come to you for knowledge. I know that in some way the Democrats control the so-called "Solid South," that they "count out all that don't "go along" with thems. But will you please please how they do it? Thanking you for any information you may give, me I am. Yours very truly: (Signed) GEORGE A LUTZ 16 Willow Street. Old Town, Maine. This is only one of numberless communications that have been reaching Republican headquarters, asking the power that be, to do something to keep the wholesale election results of those answers seen as the failures have stopped. Cox's report about the power that be shows beneath that disastrousness is not only responsible for administration but that it disunifies more white voters in South than it does black. In the startling statements answer to Mr. Lutz carry out when meaning the Republican agenda as follows: The National Republican has printically accuses of matter setting with the methods by which the back "has been put in democracy by the Democratic originary in the South. However, a brief review of these facts may not be out of view in view of the hypocrisy that is now being set by Mr. Cox in Congress. Lester McCormack, the "untarist" method, tension and "corruption" in national politics. There is not a state of the Union where Republicans have control of government, or where they are summarily numerous to prevent Democratic leaders from forcing their policies, unanimously upon the people, there free elections, do not exist, there is not a state in the Union where Democratic policies have unisoned sway, where free, fair elections are possible under the laws and practices existing. For many years elections were conflated in the Solid South states by Ben display of force, ballot box cutting and fraudulent counting of votes, Senator Ben Thuman, South Carolina, housed of close methods in the United States. He declared that his fellow Democrats did not state to commit murder, if necessary, in order to control elections. Such practices were general throughout the states of the Solid South. The effect of the system now in operation is to exclude from the polls more white voters than black, the pretense is made that the system intended to prevent negroes from voting, but it is made to exclude from the polls a larger number of the men than black, taking the old South as a whole. In Virginia, or lansing, it distranchises 100,000 more voters than black. This means men are divided to vote, of which are 150,000 in Virginia, out of which 50,000 are third elections. Only 50,000 voted in that vote, as a matter of fact, the last Virginia elected a United States senator. Five-sixths of the men conquered in Virginia to fight to "save" democracy for democracy had no vote for the affairs of government thereby change in the government of Germany. 56th Anniversary Alexandria, Va., Sept. 20—Shiloh Pupst Sunday School celebrates their th anniversary Sunday September 6.

WOMEN VOTERS "NOT EASILY HANDLED" Colored Women In South Are Bound To Vote New York, Sept. 20—That colored women in the South, enfranchised by the Woman Suffrage Movement, will be less easy to intimidate out of the current Bulletin of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored Women. "Colored women are not going to be as easily handled" says the Bulletin, nor are they likely to submit to disinformation as readily as colored women in the past. Their record of protest against prejudice during past years is proof of that fact. The Advancement Association is urging its branches to throughout the country to increase awareness for the training of mostly enfranchised women in duties and privileges of voting. STUDENTS SWAMP H.

Voters Madison Wisconsin, Sept. 16—Westley Peoples Press Service: Speaking about Jim Crow Cars, Chairman Each of the Interstate Commerce Committee went down to defeat in the Wisconsin primaries. There are some who are mean enough to say that this is because his committee refused to reopen the passage of the Bill. Likewise Chairman Reed, author of the enforcement act of the same decade, was defeated at the Minnesota election. This committee saw fit to appropriate three million dollars to enforce the 18th Amendment but could provide nothing for the 13th, 14th and 15th Amendment. Perhaps after all it is a great deal of satisfaction to know that there were twelve good Republicans in the house, but give pause, drugs twelve in the house, and the establishment of Jim Crow cars were twelve conscience stricken southerners, who took this method of relieving a troublesome state of mind.
