PEACEFUL CITIZEN IS BRUTALLY MURDERED Walter Robinson Shot Down N. A. A. C. P. Takes Up the Case Jacksonville, Fla., May 25—on account of the death of Walter Robinson, aged 36, this community lost one of the most law-abiding taxpayers among our people, and the story leading up to the court's which marks one of the most deeds deeds of civic vicinity. The fact that there has been no one indicted for the murder makes it imperative that certain names be not mentioned, the principals being well known, however. The victim's troubles are started when a certain white man, who was a resident, moved without paying, and who roundly abused the latter when he called for his money, later having him arrested for disorderly conduct. Trouble on Car A short time after the above occurrence, while the murdered man was riding in the regular "Crow" seats of a street car with his brother, they were brought to the several rough-necks, the brother, leaving the car, troubled. One of these roughs was recognized as the officer who had made the arrest of Robinson. He was followed and further bulldozed and about an hour later, his home is to attend to some minor matters fronted by his former tenant and several others, who had an automobile standing near by. He was followed up road and knocked down, kicked, beaten and killed by a gang of murderers, some of the shots having been fired into his body while he lay on the ground unconscious. It is said that the affair is being investigated by a coroner's association for Advancement of Colored People, the above is the true story of the crime. PROMOTERS OF "JIM CROW" CAMP MEET WITH FAILURE Men Willing to Fight, but Are Opposed to Segregation The attempt Sunday at the Y. M. C. A. to have the young college men of the race volunteer for service in a segregated training camp for Negroes, met with complete failure. The room was filled with young men and representative men of an older type, who listened to the explanations the sponsors of the race made, and to the touch of C. L. Carey, Bishop Parks and Franklin A. Dennison, reached the conclusion that somewhere among the men who hold power, must at least be one who would remember that we are guardians not only of the nation, but of that common heritage of the American people, and of the life into which we were born, but which our children may find wasted by our blind violence and hate. It was pointed out that a Jewish rabbi recently cautioned the Jewish people to obey the country as American citizens and not as Jewish citizens was called to the Irish people, who have paused upon the threshold of victory or defeat to British arms, to demand a free Ireland, while the Polish people are demanding that the allies shall declare for the island the slogan to which they shall march. Shall the Negro be less considerate? Something is wrong when loyal, parochial citizens, ready and able to fight, are compelled to petition their government for appointment to fight for it and whatever the situation is, should be corrected now, so that all citizens may die if need be, defending the life of a government that stands for equality of opportunity and fair and square to all. This seemed to have the thought that they would meet, for no one volunteered to segregate himself, although the temptation to wear shoulder straps and receive $100 per month was referred to several times by the promoters. They brought ready to fight and die for his country, but he is not ready to accept a position in public or private life that means a surrender of his manhood, without complaining. Among those present were Hon. E. H. Wright, Dr. A. K. Bentley, Beauregard H. B. Turner, Dr. George C. Hall and many others. CITY COUNCIL PROHIBITS 'THE BIRTH OF A NATION' Cleveland, O. May 25—The city council has passed the ordinance introduced by Councilman Stolte (Democrat) prohibiting the showing of all pictures or plays tending to incite race hatred, or "Birth of a Nation" etc. It is to be given that the judicial status of the ordinance is jeopardized by the recent decision of the United States court of appeals, which sustained the opinion of Judge B. H. McCormick, common pleas court that the exhibition of pictures not be prohibited after being passed upon favorably by the state board of censors. Assistant Director of Law, Mr. Woods, put up an excellent fight in behalf of the Judge Wing and Attorney Alexander L. Hurst in behalf of the Association for the Advancement of Colored People, et al. School children of the Virgin Islands, West Indies, Uncle Sam's recently purchased territory from the Danish government MILLIONS PREPARE TO LEAVE THE SOUTH FOLLOWING BRUTAL BURNING OF HUMAN By a Staff Correspondent Memphis, Tenn. May 25. — On the eve of a great patriotic parade, while the members of our $300,000 police force are making a house-to-house canvass in order to begin registering the Race man power of Memphis and Shelby county for selective conscription, A MOB OF $3,000 OF THE NATION'S RULING CLASS, SHERiffs, JUDGERS, EDITORS, LAWYERS, PRIESTS, PREACHERS, PHILANTHROPISTS, MILLIONAIRES AND MERCHANT PRINCES, deliberated from April 30 to May 22, elected a secretary and treasurer and other necessary secret service officials. These refined thousands, after working out their plans, selecting their leaders, notified them of the day and the hour that the high sheriff of Shelby county would order a criminal from the state prison at Nashville to be burned at the stake. This order was given after several conferences with the judges, the attorney general and other high officials of the county. These officials boast of a long line of courageous, brave, intelligent ancestors. Let us pause just here for a brief review of the crime: A little school girl was murdered during the latter part of April. It was a terrible crime. The man, or men who committed that crime, should, at the hands of the law, pay the penalty, but, instead, the newspapers instituted, or caused to be instituted, a search for every cabin in one entire section of the county, for what they termed the "fatal as." I say newspaper, because they: kept afame this damnable fire of lawlessness, which has raged in this county for more than thirty days, knowing full well that there was not enough white men of character holding office, in the neighborhood, when that mob was bent on burning or hanging a member of the Race. Finally, after using the terrible third degree method on a score or more, who resided in the neighborhood, and who did not have an ax on the premises, a confessor came in to the Persons. After the confession he was ridden to the capital of the great volunteer state of Tennessee, placed under the shadow of the governor's office within a short distance of the State National Guard training camp. Placed there for protection (?). They seemed to have been in the house in the better classes" as to weather or not the accused was guilty. So they marked time. They continued to investigate. One of our daily papers stated that it bore the earmarks of a "white man's crime." All who were held in jail were released, all who were authorities pre- released that they were seizing a chance of venue, in order to legally execute the criminal. Sheriff Disappeared A week before the "BURNING" the sheffit of Shelby county made a trip to Nashville on other business, he claimed, but, so well organized was this mob in Shelby county that it knew every step that he took, and they were under the impression that he was to bring the man back with him. So they met his train at a town near by, and after a few minutes he disappeared. Where he had gone, no one seemed to know. It appears that he simply made a grandstand political play by hiding, doubtless communing with the mob two or more days. Our newspapers again sought to, and did fan the flames to murder. WHAT FOLLOWED? A second scare of the millionaires through the police, the $300,000 police force as ushers, showing this mob through these costly temples of justice. "Sin of Silence" During this entire time "the sin of silence" had such a firm hold on the Jewish rabbi, who himself was once enslaved, that he could not speak. Had he been freed, the oops of the Episcopal church that they disappeared. Had so completely enthralled or overwhelmed the Catholic priests that not one could murmur. This same "sin of silence" made cowards of more than a thousand Methodists, Baptists, Presbyterians, Congregationalists, ministers and churches of this city. The realization of the fact that they had no protection, that they, too, would be burned at the stake, kept the mouths of the children of the fire county shut. What of the women and children? They were, some of them, looking forward to the day on which a black man was to burn at the stake. He was beaten and beaten and afraid, plending with the men not to assort itself. The transactions of the last thirty days made cowards and criminals of 150,000 women and women, and white. There was born in this county a man who was stained the stain of tain in their heart. There was born other hundreds of children with the curse of fear and the badge baked upon them. The mothers of these children will the mothers of children yet unborn, will be weakened because of the mob. The Ultimate End of It All I do not know, but I do know that somebody or bodies will pay, and dearly to the "white south." The grave of the "white south." The plains and place was selected two weeks before the actual hanging and burning took place. The commercial Appeal, "the south's greatest newspaper"; the News-Scimlimar "the south's greatest afternoon journal"; the News-Scimlimar "the south's greatest agitator and crime breeder," all of these organs and mouth-pieces of Shelby county and the south published the plans, pointed out the case, the cowardly editors of the all knew and the too, too, are co-murderers of the three criminals who paid the price. For ten days every train entering Memphis was stopped, very carefully and intentionally stopped. Stopped with the knowledge of the all knew and the too, too, are co-murderers of the three criminals who paid the price. Race passengers on the Illinois Central, on the Louisville & Nashville, on the Prisco, and the other great lines entering Memphis were abused and insulted. During this entire time the public protest was made by either the office of the law or the owners of the roads. Law and Order? There is not today in this whole county a single officer of the law who would continue on next page COUNCIL MAN FLENING HURT Cleveland, O. May 25—Councilman Thomas W. Fleming was painfully injured when his auto collided with another car in the east end last Monday. He was accompanied by his wife, Mrs. Leahin Fleming, eminent.

Mr. Fleming's knee was operated upon at Charity hospital Wednesday, where he has been confined since the accident. ACCIDENTALLY KILLED Corsicana, Texas, May 25—Alexander Johnson, an old citizen, was accidentally killed Saturday. Notice to Agents Memorial day, May 30, falls on Wednesday. As there is only one mail that day, orders for papers and correspondence must reach this office on Tuesday of NEXT week. Walking Delegate Would Take Matters in His Own Hands, BUT— By the Scrutinizer Toledo, Ohio. May 25—When I was detailed to come north for the purpose of covering reported conditions in the city of the Maumee I remembered that this had been one of the few really unprejudiced cities in America at the time of my last visit, which was several years ago. Today, if the sentiment expressed by one of modern Race-baiters here is a criterion, Toledo will have to be classed as a stolen hoole as are found in certain sections of "Sunny South." Never, in all my experience as a special investigator, have I seen such a change as concerns common privileges and equal rights. There are many in a bathroom in this town which claims a position of 25,000, a member of the Race can get service, and at the theaters they have adopted a system which is an in-dependence of any self-respecting individual—seating them in a prescribed section of the well-known "theatre." A Bitter Harangue Now there is a, concerted movement about to be made by the Central Labor Union to stop the further importation of members of the Race into this city, and to stop the thing being brought to a successful end is the matter hereby mentioned, but just to bring to such readers of the Defender attention, the rotten bunk of such sum as Ernests of Rieger, a cheap walk-in store, inside, puts it, "our white women, having the privilege as the white men." And then he throws the following fit, which has one-half of the decent population of the town laughing at his assassin braying; the powers that he are letting such conditions exist, and yet they are asking us to buy Liberty bonds. They want us to fight and get with German bullets while the Negroes stay on the job. If we can penetrate through an educ- ADAMS' RESTAURANT BURNS Cleveland, O., May 25.—Fire caused by an overheated stove almost destroyed the restaurant of Charlie Adams, 3017 Centerville, and Mrs. George H.

The fire was averted by the quick action of Mr. Randolph, neighbors, and the fire department. Loss covered by insurance. HEROES OF CARRIZAL MAY GO WITH GEN. PERSHING Washington, D.

B. Tucker, 3551 Forest avenue, which has kept the courts busy for over a week. Irma Chetam, the young school girl who figured so prominently in the proceedings at the trial before the civil service board, when Tucker was charged with improper conduct in the offices and who was severely reprimanded along with Tucker by the judge, who dismissed the second case, was on the stand in favor of Officer Tucker. Like the other officers, she was also charged with adultery, men were charged with keeping and presenting other women as their wives. The witness stopped at the witness stand. Martin had to be called several times by the judge and objection after objection by Attorney Albert George was sustained. Mrs. Tucker on the stand told of how she victimized a frame-up. She declared the victim of guilty of immorality with the Chetam in contradiction of him action becoming to a husband on numerous occasions. There seems to be a lot of counter-charges made by him some of his friends, but Martin called some of his friends a contradictor anything on the witness stand. Her answers were straight, calm, cool and deliberate. She never faltered. At times, Mrs. Tucker claims, she was forced to carry a gun for fear of her life. She said that whatever she had done to her mother, she gave her he would give her the money in her pocketbook she had saved to buy a tombstone for her baby's grave and the dollar he had that her mother, who is now dead, gave her. Her mother, having been but some years ago in a bicycle accident, as we go to press the case is still in the hands of the jury, which was out all night, both sides feeling confident.

THE CHICAGO DEFENDER MEMPHIS LYNCHING HORR:FIES WORLD MEMPHIS LYNCHING HORR:FIES WORLD (Continued from first page) attempt to do his duty, unless that duty was to disarm some helpless Race man who might try to protect himself. The truth is, they themselves are in sympathy with the mob, The mob is carrying out their ideas and their orders. Some of them helped to dignify the mob, while others killed them. Others, then, helped to adjust the chain about their victim's neck. There were hundreds of guns in that mob that were bought by the taxpayers of this county. Now, if we can, let us journey all the way from the town to the town, and to the town, to the town, bearing the license numbers of two sovereign states, Tennessee and Mississippi, each automobile containing from four to eight men from the best white families in these two states. These were the first to be produced in the United Kingdom, to demonstrate to the world the real feeling of the south, determined to outdo the efforts of similar groups in Georgia. Our morning paper speaks of them as it would speak of heroes who were making the most of the world. They score in need sober, thoughtful, patriotic souls of the south, bent on murdering and burning and insulting just a few helpless, ignorant men. From 5:20 o'clock Monday night until 9:15 Tuesday morning, they traveled to the town, and they were at the head of the great city of Memphis, situated in the corner of three great states. From the heart of this city to the outskirts of the same, they made their way. Imagine if you can our mounted policemen, who are in charge of the police, who are in charge of the sheriffs, the hundreds of American soldiers, courting our bridges, standing idly by. Imagine if you can our grand jury in session, judges of our courts busy with petty cases involving hogs, cows, mules, inland miners, too busy to give a single thought to the insignificant burning of a human being. They reacted the scene. At Macon road a gallant officer of the law, who made all of his money, off the cheap Negro labor, stood the victim up in his machine, made him hold his right hand to heaven and to God and implicate two other members of the Race. Immediately sections of these great men started out in search of the two men so implicated, while the 3,000 left behind went about the very pleasant duty of cutting off the ears and toes of the prisoner preparatory to placing him on the fur-faced person. "They are a few of the more thoughtful members of the hollo, and a few of the thoughtful members of the hollo from a near-by log cabin, with not a single window in it, a little ragged, poor, emaciated boy & years of age, dragged him to a huge bog in plain view of that miserable creature, and one of the orators of the occasion delivered to this child the message of misery, the message of hate, the message of murder to be handed down by him to all ages. "Look on this form, boy," said that cur, "and remember to the last day of your life, this representation of law, order and civilization in this, the land of the south. This same thing will always be given to the most white women." The untawened truths that could have honestly been stated by the orator were: these: "This same thing will happen to N --- who steal chickens, hogs, cows, mules. This thing will happen to any self-respecting one who even attempts to protect his wife, his mother or his sister." Who Witnessed These Scenes? Who heard this eloquent speech? Race, who lives in women, little girls and boys in whose home she was bitterness, gray-haired ladies, old and young, a few grim-confident yet-angry, a few grim-confident yet-angry, white men and women from the north, white men and women from the north, little innocent from those of the south. Little innocent from those of the south. Race, who are forced to see this crime, who are forced to see this crime of the blue-eyed Texasans. After the burning, then what? The head of the victim was brought to Real Street, the center of Race business enterprises, two banks representing a half million dollars, many churches and schools. The head of this victim was brought in the section where hundreds of thousands of dollars of money is invested. They threw this man's head, which was minus both ears and nose, into this busy street, and there is a member of the mob said to be the throng. "Take this." Thousands of law-abiding citizens who have, by their labor, fed the south for fifty years. Thousands who are today producing two-thirds of the food eaten by the mob. Not until the bringing of the head to head street did our $300,000 police department get into action. The message was flashed to headquarters. The child ordered six stalwart policemen to capture this head and to turn it over to the county authorities. The Jew, operating the pawn shops, had charge of the head; the Italian, operating the meat market, had charge of the arm. The mob drove quietly away from this center of wealth and culture of the Race. What of the two implicated? The 12 o'clock bulletin stated that they, too, would be burned at 5 o'clock, when all of the stores were closed. This information was flashed throughout the city by the news boys. The 5 o'clock burning was arranged for that hour in order to give the brave business men, the shop girls, who could not get off in the morning, the opportunity to witness the afternoon tragedy. During this entire day the smiles had never left the faces of our white neighbors, but there is today gloom completely developing our temples of justice, the churches look dismal and cold. The children look as though a national holiday had enabled them to be home from school. The Race men, brave, but powerless, look sad and discontented, realizing doubtless that even a protest from the best of them would be the cause of another burning. Three of the men implicated by the man who was burned this morning, is completely surrounded by the mob. Different groups of young individuals, the who can neither read write, speak or hear, with hands shot off, in chains waiting for the capture of Armstrong. When Armstrong is captured, the gallant heroes will return to Macon read, where the crowd has survived the 300 years of the organized经营活动, waiting for the seeded epic side, in this most interesting tragedy. Our good (7) daily papers are still lending their little mite, each one reaping a harvest of nickels and pennies from the disgraced inhabitants. They are published in the press, the book, the press, with the story of the homeline, of the still more horrible criminals. All meetings are called off. All of the great organizations among them have abandoned the idea of holding their annual sessions in this city of the mob. They are conducted by the members of the Medical Association, the largest gathering of professional men that S物流协会 has ever had the opportunity to entertain; the Delta Bowe, the largest gathering of college-bred men of the Race in the world, with these organizations as well as those of the other members of July and August. The Grand Lodge of Masons, the Grand Lodge of Knights of Pythias, meetings of all called off, and the funds raised in Memphis will be given to the men of the mob. The men who have been故里, either Knoxville, Chattelot or Norwich, The efforts of the best men of the Race to get these gatherings to Memphis, all destroyed by the mob. Memphis is not a fit place for the best members of the Race to assemble. Memphis is a place for us of any kind, large, high, live. This is not the first big mob this city has had. Special secret meetings were held and it is estimated that before many said many of the best and most influential others in this city will have moved elsewhere. Millions of others throughout the south have prepared to leave. The answer to those who have said the south is your best friend is to point their finger at this boy. No China will heathen days, no cannibal tribes. Fri is guilty of such a crime. Fri is brought to bear that all men leave here rather than be drafted into an army led by members of the mob. Northward bound men are often called the governor is censured, as no protection was offered. The papers are to blame. What prophecy can the hards of the south make when women form part of the Creator, you sons of the south, for the wicked crimes that you have committed against your brother in black, in the evening of your life upon the banks of the river, your heart will be smite with eternal remorse. DO YOU WONDER AT THE THOUSANDS LEAVING THE LAND WHERE EVERY FOOT OF GROUND MARKS A TRAGEDY, LEAVING THE GRAVE OF THEIR FATHERS AND ALL THAT IS DEAR, TO SEEK THEIR FORTUNES IN THE NORTH? AND YOU WILL THAT THEIR GRAVE IS TO SEEK BETTER WAYS INSULTING TRUTH, DETHRONING REASON, AND CONSOLING YOURSELF WITH A GROUNDLESS ALLEGATION. UNION LABOR LEADER FALSELY ALARMED UNION LABOR LEADER FALSELY ALARMED (Continued from first page) cational campaign, then we will chase them, but ourselves." If it is true that the south was laughing before, this descendant of the kaiser now has the north laughing also. What selflessness can only be conjectured, but it is dollars to doughnuts that if there is a sympathy in the lead, he can expect but little sympathy from the better class of people here, and an investigation made by the kaiser will be well as those who have come here in the past year or so, if Rieger, Klein or any others of their likl to pull any answer will truly try get what is coming to them. Folks Arc Ready There are certain employers who have gumption enough to hire skilled labor regardless of race or color, which fact often makes them more likely to south to get employment at good living salaries. This is the real cause of the bowl let out by these grafters who have gumption enough to outsmart unions out of fat salaries for years. I have made it a personal duty to advise members of the Race regarding preparation for the job, and that may be tried and it is a fortune that the results are more than gratifying, our men and women have as much right to work as anyone else. Batters have to "chase em out," which means nothing more or less than the Khu-klux idea, and I know that when they get hired, our unions will remember it for many a day. I also looked up the ancestry of these blowhards and I find that they are a couple of Germans whose gulfwares are imbibed or the number of kimmels they have soaked into their Teutonic systems. There is no reason for fear that either of these fellows will get hump-backed bonds, and as far as getting shot by German shells, there is much more inability of them getting half shot from beers as a sojourn thing to men get up on the street, somebody may be able to beat them out of their women, and Kaiser Rieger should be drummed out of town for expressing such a thought. Decent women, and if any of the females of the Rieger or Klein tribes have been bothered that way, these fellows should begin their relations to a good start at home. No doubt that it is the place where it is most needed.

ANSWERS Dear General Tony: For the past six weeks I have held myself in readiness to join the Hungry Hussars; I sent the money which you asked for and forwarded that two-gallon jug of monshine that you said would be needed by you and your staff. Now, in the last issue of the Defender, I see where you promised a fellow down in the sticks that you would tell him what you all were going to do. That's what I want to find out.

I will await your orders and feel like the fellow in the song, which goes like this: And I will fight from morn till night, Unless they shoot at me.

UNABLE TO STAND ONSLAUGHT OF HIS FORMER TEAM MATES WILLIAMS IS MASTER OF SITUATION Schollar's Park, Sunday Afternoon.—The mighty Wickleware retreated at the request of Manager Joe Green of the team, who was the manager's today's game after he had hopelessly tried to baffle Rube Foster's sluggers—his former teammates. Walter Ball finished the game he pitched a masterful game, cool at all times, using judgment and winning instincts. Ball had come out to see him works. Had Ball started the game it would have been a pretty pitchers' battle and the team would have won. The question, but Ball didn't and the lost game is charged to the once mighty conqueror of Walter Johnson of big leagues. Tom Willis has great rest. Tom Willis, carved in Morris Brown University, carved his name in the halls of fame when he held the Chicago Giants to three scattered hits, one of which could have possibly been Grant hustled a bit. Inability to field bunt cost Wickham the game. Both Chicago Giants' scores were results of errors, one by Beyoung, which proved bad, the other by DeMario, more of the kind of weather for March than this time of year, and hampered men in their efforts. Both teams swatted the ball at times but the strong kent kept it long enough to let the fielders get under it. The cold weather also hampered Williams, who said that it had been warm in the innings. Williams played in the fifth innings and performed a wowfulful fit by pitching three balls during the innings. Twice his position in the innings, Williams and his runners were trapped, one at second and one at first, but they got back safely each time. Williams wilted in the back. The Fosterites tackled the Cubans next Sunday. The game by innings: **Wickware Begins to Ascend** First Inning—Gans was warmly applauded by the crowd. Williams couldn't get the ball over and Gans took two balls, but skilled to Hill on the next. Winston hit to Lloyd, who was on the ball. Winston to the stand. Jennings worked the counts of three and two and then doubled over Duncan's head, scoring Winston. Pettus laid down a neat sacrifice and was sent to Grant. Beckwith filed out to Hill. American Giants—Wickware was given a glad hand from all sides of the pitchers. Jennings struck a strike on Duncan. Duncan waited out two balls, a strike and PITTSBURG STARS LOSE Buffalo, N. Y. May 25—Every fan that saw last Sunday's game between the Urban Liberty's and the Pittsburgh Colored Stars admitted it was good base on the street grounds early today, to see the second struggle of theirs. When clubs play with but one excusable error on grounds none too smooth that the teams are not. That is what these clubs pulled off last week, a single miscue in an attempted double play, where action is required rather than perfect aim. The Urban Liberty's and the Pittsburgh Colored Stars jubilant ever since. To defeat Johnson's fast teams is something that every club tries for, but few reach the goal. Manager Johnson proposes to make it a harder for last Sunday's winners by seizing the early start and not wait until it is too late to save the day. Emory is the foxiest pitcher in the business and twists his best when his opponents think nothing but his glove and a wad of gum. RICHMOND BROWNS WIN CHICAGO DEFENDER NEWS SERVICE Batesville, Ark. May, 25—The opening game was a battle royal between the Black Sox and Batesville High School, the Sox winning, 7 to 6.

Five visitors held a pow-wow around Goeckel, but it proved harmless. American Giants—Duncan strolled. Booker came out a buir in the booker couldn't pick it.

Ninth Inning—De Moes went over and put down Beckwitt's high foul fly. W. Green and De Moes tossed out Booker to Grant. Giant Sidelights Walter Ball must certainly be given credit for the masterful game which he had. So must our college boy, Williams. Joe Green has plenty of pep in him. He would have given the boys of Foster a tough battle but he started Ball. He played with a clean player. He was back of second, third and short on different plays. Foster stood among the spectators, flicking his tongue and then smoking the old corncippe. One thing: that was clearly proved that Lloyd was still peer of the shirts. His play in the seventh was a dream. The Cubans will be here Sunday with the famous Padron in Redding, who was on occasion. Wickware seemed to float his old-time effectiveness and control and was kidded by the fans. Everyone praised the work of Tom Williams, of the Morris Brown University.
