FRENZIED FANATICS BURN FLAG READ EVERYWHERE BY EVERYBODY THAT'S ANYBODY High Court Affirms Riot Verdict ELUDES BURNING STAKE; SHOT DEAD Vol. 2.—No. 26 FRE High C ELUDES MOB'S VICTIM BROKE CHAINS AND DIED BY BULLETS MOB'S VICTIM BROKE CHAINS AND DIED BY BULLETS Savannah, Ga., June 21.—Philip Garthers, colored, was lynched at Rincon, Ga. near here today, after he had been charged with the der of Ansa Jandon, a white Garthers was arrested, it is said, thru information furnished by a renegade Negro, who held a personal grudge against the lynched man. Garthers stoutly maintained his innocence from the moment he was arrested to his dying breath. It is claimed that the home guard of Savannah was ordered to Rincon, after the report of the lynching had been received at Savannah. Auto Parties To Scene. When news reached Savannah of the arrest of Garthers, several hundred automobiles were chartered to make the trip to Rincon, where the accused man was incarcerated. Automobilists are said to have made the trip from as far as Brunswick, Ga., suport. S. C. Arriving in the town, the automobiles surrounded the jail, and began a demonstration such as was never before seen in Rincon. Men, women, and children appeared in gala atire and the drowsy rural village resounded with the laughter of holiday crowds. Lunches were spread in the town square, and a dance was held in the Odd Fellows' Hall until about 4 P. M. when the merry makers began congregating around the jail, which, by some mistake of the sheriff, had been left unlocked. Chained To Tree. The accused man was produced, and various methods of lynching were discussed. It was finally voted that Gartners be burned at the stake. In the voting women and children were given equal suffrage with the men. A committee was appointed to perform the ceremony and a ministed of the gospel volunteered his services to the doomed man. Breaks Chains In Struggle. Gartners offered little or no resistance as he was being led to the tree which was to serve as a stake. His clothes never saturated with oil. While the torch was being applied, Garther began struggling and protesting his innocence. His clothes were blazing as he finally broke the chains that bound him and dashed into the crowd of picnickers as a human torch. Women screamed for glee. Someone fired a shot at the fleeing fire brand. This shot proved the signal for a fusillade which ended Garther's carrer. Negroes Forsake Country. It was reported tonight that vast numbers of Negroes are leaving the country for the North. Many have simply walked away leaving their homes and valuables to whomever chooses to take them. --- Judge Stelk Is Attacked by Legion Judge John Stelk of the Municipal court was made the target of charges last week preferred by Woodlawn post of the American Legion. The post accuses him of "unfairness" in connection with the trial before him of Wiley Gresham, colored, charged with annoying women by writing obscene notes. Gresham, a soldier who went over and said the Cink de Guerre, was employed in the warehouses. When insecure writing and notes to white women appeared, Capt. Rogers called in several persons and got samples of their writing. Comparison of the samples led him to believe Gresham was guilty and he had him arrested. At the trial Judge Stelk refused to admit the handwriting of Gresham to be compared with that in the notes. He also criticized Capt. Rogers for statements he made to Gresham. It was urged that he be transferred to some other branch of the court. Chief Justice Harry Olson received the charges. He said he would confer with Judge Stelk, but as the "unfairness" complained of consists of Judge Stelk's exercising his judicial discretion in refusing comparison of handwriting to prove the guilt of Gresham, he doesn't see what he can do about it. "I don't care what Judge Olson does about it." Judge Stelk said. — "This just shows what the Legion is getting to be. It is trying to dictate to the judges and everybody else. "In this case, when Gresham heard he was under suspicion he asked Capt. Rogers about it and told the captain he wanted to face his accuser. Capt. Rogers told him to 'Get the h-l out of here' and also said: 'If you made a request down south to face a white woman who accused you you would be burned at the stake.' ABBOT LOSES CASE TO GARVEY (New York City, June 22.) Case of the Black Star Line against the Chicago Defender which terminated in the Federal Court, before Judge Knox, last week attracted considerable attention. The suit was for libel brought by the Black Star Line against the Chicago. Def. for $200,000 and after exhausting all the facts, in the case and a careful charge by Judge Knox to the jury, who deliberated for about three and one half hours, the verdict was arrived at giving the Black Star Line six cents. The Black Star Line was ably defended by Attorney Rosenheim, while the Defender was taken care of by the law firm of French and French. The rights of the press were clearly established; the case was one of unusual importance to all publications. MARINES ATTACK NATIVES.

Springfield, Ill., June 22. — The Illinois Supreme Court here last Wednesday affirmed the judgment of guilty against Walter Colvin and Charles Johnson, convicted in Chicago of the murder of Morris Lazzeronin, at, 36th and State Sts., during the race riots. The case was brought to the supreme courts because of alleged faulty instructions to the jury. The Supreme Court said it could find no error. Attorneys Pollard and Barnett handled the case for the defendant, and sought to set aside the judgment of the lower court. In their brief to the Supreme Court the defendants relied on seven points: That there was no evidence to prove that Lazzeroni was the individual alleged to have been killed in the indictment; that there was no proof that the body of the person killed was the same as examined by the coroner's physician; that there was no evidence as to the guilt of Charles Johnson; that confessions made by the defendants were made under duress; that the only eye witness made contradictory stories; that the only eye witness was carefully schooled in her story even from the inquest; that the one eye witness changed her story at the trial so as to make out a case against Johnson. GOVERNOR MORROW CORRECTS INJUSTICE Louisville, Ky., June 22. — Government or Morrow yesterday pardoned Earl Mosely, colored bellboy at Hotel Henry Watterson, recently sentenced to serve six months in jail on a charge of stealing a ring, according to information received from Frankfort last night. The ring belonged to Mrs. Nellie Harrington, a patron of the hotel. Missing it, she charged Mosely with the theft. Mosely was convicted. Afterward the ring was found in the room. Application for Mosely's release was made by petitions signed by Police Court officials and by Louisville citizens. ALEC TAYLOR, EX-SLAVE, DIES AT THE AGE OF 107 Ardmore, Okla., June 22nd. Alex.

NEGROES FLEE GEORGIA Atlanta, Ga., June 22—The American Steel and Wire Co. in its reports as to the condition of crops in Georgia for the week ending June 19, says: "The brutal and inhuman treatment accorded Negro farmhands and the consequent wholesale exodus of Negroes has thrown the agricultural situation into a state of stagnation. A comprehensive survey of the state shows: North—Plenty of mules and stock, but labor is scarce and hard to obtain. Northeast—Owing to the shortage of labor it will be impossible to make more than a 50 per cent cotton crop. East—Labor high and scarce. Southeast—Farm labor high and so scarce that most acreage is not being cultivated. West—Farm labor from scarce to scarceer than ever. Control—Labor high, scarce, and independent. THE TRUTH WITHOUT FEAR FOLLOWERS OF RADICAL CULT KILL 2; WOUND 2 Two white men were killed and two colored wounded in the frenized outbreak of a cult of colored fanatics at the corner of 35th St. and Indiana Ave., late Sunday afternoon. News was flashed throughout the city and the nation that Chicago Negroes had broken out into race riotng, and had shown their contempt for the Federal Government by burning its flag. There was no raid. The disturbance the direct result of the clever activities of white and colored propagandists, who, for their own selfish purposes, hypnotized their emotional followers, already discouraged and demoralized by alleged injustice, into a frenzy of violent resentment.

OWENS, Who Was Shet Down Protecting the Flag. DEAD. R. L. ROSE, white, a sailor from Great Lakes Training Station. JOSEPH HOIT, white, salesman for the United Cigar Stores Co. INJURED. JOSEPH OWENS, colored, police- man, shot through the lungs. WILLIAM CARTER, colored, a passerby. Several Causes Given. While it has been definitely ascertained what caused the frenzied state of mind of the cult known as the "Star Order of Ethiopia", it is not yet definitely known what incidents directly caused the actual shooting. Stories told by actual eye witnesses to the affray differ. Sunday afternoon members of the fraternity known as the "Star Order Ethiopia" headed by its leader—styled as the "Prince of Abyssinia," paraded south on State St and east on 35th Street to the Entertainer's Hall. When the parade reached Indiana avenue, the members of the cult assembled in front of the door to the hall. Bystanders who claim to be eye witnesses to the affair claim that white sailors standing around began jeering at the ceremonies. Others who claim to be eye witnesses allege that a white sailor assailed one of the paraders who was wearing the Abyssinian flag and set it on fire, whereupon the parader retaliated by burning the American flag, and the fight ensued. The theory upon which the police are working runs as follows: When the parade halted at the corner of 35th street and Indiana ave., an American flag was produced by Joseph Ferno, self-styled Abyssinian Prince, who, wearing a bright blue robe, a red fez, was riding a black horse. Ferno is said to have dismounted from his horse, gathered his followers around him, and begun setting fire to the American flag. PRICE FIVE CENTS FLAG OF RADICAL CULT WOUND 2 called and two colored wounded in result of colored fanatics at the cor- ave., late Sunday afternoon. hought the city and the nation that in out into race riotng, and had Federal Government by burning the direct result of the clever acti- ropagandists, who, for their own their emotional followers, already by alleged injustice, into a frenzy Some one in the cross cried in horror, "He's burning the flag." — When Policeman Owens rushed to the scene and asked Ferno whether he was an American citizen, Ferno is said to have responded: "No, and I'll burn your American flag just as you burn people of my color." When the policeman began struggling to recover the flag from the flames, he was shot down by one of the zealots, presumably Ferno. Just at that time an automobile bearing several white sailors turned into 35th St. Seeing the flag in flames, Rose leaped from the car to rescue it he likewise was shot. Rose then rushed toward the United Cigar Store for aid and fell dead in the door. The shooting was general by this time. Shots were heard in all directions. Pedestrians began running pell-mell for refuge from the rain of bullets. When Rose fell dead in the cigar store door, Hoyt ran to the door to see what was going on. His head was cloven by a dumdum bullet, fired by some one of the zealots, no one knows whom. Riot Alarm Sounded. The pandemonium was now general. Rumors ran rife that another race riot was in progress. In less than twenty minutes 700 policemen were crowded into the "black belt" Outlying districts were left unprotected. Whites and colored alike began to arm and distribute ammunition for a general conflict. Sporadic Outbursts Begin. Although the residents of the black belt maintained their composure and co-operated with the police authorities in suppressing the excitement, white hoodlums throughout the city began yelling for black blood. A mob of 500 white sailors formed at Adams street and Wabash avenue to invade the South Side. One enthusiast offered to charter taxicabs for the small army. This mob dispersed when it was realized that probably the "black belt" was able to take care of itself. Another mob of 150 sailors was organized at 8th and State streets for similar purposes. This mob was intercepted and appealed to by Eugene F. Manns, of Eugene F. Manns & Co., Inc., (colored) who prevailed upon the sailors to return to Great Lakes peaceably. A crowd of white hoodlums recruited from the notorious "athletic clubs" attacked two colored small boys at 47th St. and the Elevated Station. Back o' the Yard gangsters attacked three colored ministers at the corner of 63rd and Halsted Sts. By midnight newsboys throughout the city were yelling "Race Riot in the Black Belt. Niggers kill two white men!" The prompt action of the police authorities coupled with the co-operation of citizens' of both races prevented a re-enactment of last year's rioting. Arrest Ringleaders. Edward Redding, the leader of the "cult" was arrested in a flat at 3626 Prairie Ave. In the same flat were Continued on page 6. UNDER THE LASH OF THE WHIP The Monogram Theatre on State Street is full of terrible things. The odors are terrible and the heat is stifling. All through the performance vendors yell and shriek their dirty wares. Yet you pay loop prices and get slavery-time service. The Vendome Theatre is a splendid example of a first class picture house. The people appreciate it. The cheap vaudeville and its sardine style accommodations make us wonder how it passes sanitary tests. Let everybody observe the Monogram, notice its operation, at what price, and by whom. Then let us decide whether it is wholesome for the community. We heard a certain party voice great respect for a certain local politician "because he has backbone." We have been fooled a long time by this gallery and grand-stand play of our "race champions." They get before large audiences and attempt to show off. They know they have not prepared themselves to compete with trained men. Yet they dare arise among brilliant people and show off their ignorance. We have neither respect nor admiration for this kind of backbone. If our political bluffs would keep quiet when they can't fool people they would win more respect because their ignorance would not be so publicity established. They bombed Binga's house for the fifth time. They demolished his front porch. We would like to see something done by the "Old Negroes" and the politicians with influence to stop the persecution of this man, not because we have any personal love or respect for him, but because the bomb was aimed at Binga's race, and not at Binga. For the same reason we would like to see the State Bank a success, because it will benefit the race. The masses are ungrateful, and so is the conceived individual. This is the time when personal feeling should be placed in the background, and let the race feeling get behind this man, not because he is deserving, but because success and relief to him will better the general condition of affairs. As usual, when the so-called Abysinian race friction arose in Chicago, the "misleaders" as usual offered their race solutions to the white press and the problem again has been tied into a Gordian Knot. None of these "misleaders" were on the scene of the disaster, neither did they know the origin or the Parades, loud bands, loud colored regalia, black horses and pompous "street marshals" show how Negroes are being organized: They prove how emotions are played upon, proves how passions are fanned into fires. If this zeal and enthusiasm is put into labor organizations and behind Negro business, oh how different things would be! The Pozo and Protective Association and the Protective Circle had a splendid chance to function on last Sunday. The officers were other busy getting their opinion to the white press or behind "closed doors" at the Appomattox Club and left Mr. Engene Manns to do the real work downtown. Jesse Binga, known to many as the Black Capitalist and who is very much disliked by the black constituency who do not belong to the Catholic Church is learning that his capital and "business prestige" will not give him immunity from the well directed bombs of Negro haters. Jesse may be expected to be seen converted to the ideas and ideals of the New Negro not by the persuasion of reason or logic but by the solemn influence of bombs.

WHILE the June showers fell during a cessation of bomb hostilities, while colored mothers huddled their brown-skinned babies to their breasts, while stern, stalwart, grim-faced Irish policemen paraded the Southside to prevent a repetition of last summer's orgy, while young men sat in close caucus, endeavoring to shoulder the burdens of a misunderstood, much persecuted, much maligned race of people, the sires and their scions garbed in full dress regalia and riding in capitalistic taxicabs gathered at the Grand Opening of the Appomattox Club Nosey passed wending his way homeward and heard the clinking of the glasses and the chirping of high feminine voices and was constrained to stop. Upon the faces of the celebrators he noticed no trace of anguish or any ostensible sign of race consciousness. He lifted his bleary eyes into the misty stars peeping through the shaded heavens and murmured "lift my eyes to thee,, from whence cometh my salvation." AGAIN the "Champions" in the billiard world, Dr. Halc Parker and Mr. Fr. Preer renewed their conflict of words on their perennial subject: "Their abilities as billiardists." Packey McFarland and Virgil Williams also closed their debate on the respective merits of the contestants in the tournament recently held at Royal Gardens. The interested spectators enjoy these spicy contests without cues or balls. T WAS interesting to note the the spirit of the "strollers" on 25th St and "bystanders" on 30th St. on Sunday evening and Sunday night. They were not,beligerent and not aggressive, but they were certainly grim and determined and not afraid of the great white majority of ten to one, the Chicago Tribune to the contrary notwithstanding. One could see the activities of the sober thinkers who sensed the tense situation and threw themselves sanely and intelligently into the situation to prevent a great and general outburst. None of these thought, however, to see that police protection was given to Stock Yards employees of color, or that 63rd and Halsted Streets were properly patrolled. But none of these persons thought to plead with the white newspapers to make their head lines moderate ndnsaddsnakaarea, lines moderate and sane. I saw some of the jackies come back in the heavily patrolled black belt and stand with arms a-kimbo.

In an interview with Mr. Edwards, the deacon stated that the statements were fals and malicious and that every penny entrusted to his care was safe. The case has been set for June 30th when many startling disclosures will be made on behalf of Deacon Edwards. It is said that several other members of building fund and officials of the church are contemplating suits against the Rev. Polk. Mrs. Birdie Lee James, sister of Attorney Richard E.

A committee was appointed to see the Mayor. This committee today sent him the following letter: National Equal Rights League Chicago Branch June 19th 1920 To permit such criminal acts against property and lives because of the race of owners, there having been many such outrages without any arrests, is to actually encourage and foster a spirit of race attack and lawlessness most dangerous to the city.

El Centro, Cal., June 15. — The newspaper El Monitor, published at Mexican, Lower California, today printed the statement that Judge Louis Cacho at Tinjuanna had ordered Jack Johnson, former world's heavyweight boxing champion, to leave the territory within thirty days from June 5. Mistreatment of several Mexican girls, including his wife's maid, was said to be charged against Johnson. El Monitor stated Governor Esteban Cantu of the northern district of Lower California, had approved the action of Judge Cacho. The newspaper added that if Johnson had not left the territory by July 5, Mexican authorities at Tinjuanna would turn him over to officers from the United States, where he is wanted to serve a sentence for violation of the Mann act.

Local Pestimers Make It Two Straight Over Hoosiers. Detroit Stars defeated Indianapolis A. B. C's Sunday at Mack park in a short game, 3 to 1. The contest was called on account of rain after 4 1-2 innings of play. Detroit scored twice in the opening inning, Lyon's pretty drive to center bringing home Warfield, who had strolled. Lyons stole second and third and tallied on C. Hill's hit. Warfield tripled in the third and scored on Lyons's drive to right, on which Jeffries made a wonderful shoe string catch. Holland handed the visitors their only run in the second inning. With two out, Powell walked, advanced the second on a balk and scored on McClain's hit to right. Wesley retired the side in the fifth, getting Johnson's line drive and doubling Day off first. Indianapolis plays the Stars at Mack park Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday.

The Roseland Eclipse will play the Cuban Giants, Sunday, June 26th. The American Giants entertained their old enemies the Rogers Parks and believe me, it was some game.

Lafferty pitched shut-out ball, but Johnson was just as good and if it had not been fro Demoso's error they might have been going yet as Johnson's ball was fast and breaking right and it anybody's game until the last man was out in the ninth inning. Umbles And Simpson Win Athletic Letters At "Y" College. Y. M. C. A. Athletes Carry Off Honors in College and Dual Meets. Lee Umbles and Gordon Simpson, both members of Wabash Avenue "Y", have been making their marks in athletics at Y. M. C. A. College this year. Both were awarded the college athletic "C" at the recent Student Open House, Umbles winning his in both baseball and track, and Simpson in track. They have been big factors in the college victories this season. Umbles cinched second base position on the varsity baseball nine by outplaying several opponents. He starred both in the field and at the bat in every game. In athletics, Coach Hoffer relied upon him in the half-mile, one mile and two-mile events. Umbles' favorite distances are five and ten miles, but he has shown surprising form in the shorter runs this year and should make a better mark next season. He will run this summer in several meets around Chicago. Monarchs Break Even. Omaha, Neb., June 20 — The Kansas City Monarch split even in a double header with Omaha Armour's, losing the first game 4 to 0 and winning the last 3 to 1.

San Francisco, June 15. — William Harrison (Jack Dempsey), world's heavy weight champion, was found not guilty on a selective draft evasion indictment by a jury in the United States district court here today. The jury was out ten minutes and took one ballot. Judge Dooley's instructions to the jury occupied ten minutes. In them he outlined the three counts in the indictment against the champion. A joint indictment of conspiracy to evade the selective *draft* remains against Dempsey, and his manager, Jack Keenan. They were asked to plead to the indictment tomorrow. Mrs. Priscilla Dempsey, mother of the champion, who sat by his side throughout the trial, squeezed his big hand in both of her hands when the verdict was returned. Later she said she never had any fear of the outcome. "I knew my boy innocent from the first." The Good Heckler Elihu Root said at a New York luncheon: "I like to attend Anti-Saloon League meetings on account of the heckling that goes on at them. The hecklers are much cleverer than the speakers as a rule. "An Anti-Saloon League orator was being heckled the other evening by a broad-shouldered lad in a brown cap. The orator got the worst of it, and he lost his temper. Finally he said in a voice of rage and hatred: "Take off your cap, young man, if you want to question me." "Take off your cap. Take off your cap!" yelled the orator's supporters on the platform. "But the broad-shouldered youth grinned and shouted: "I didn't take off me cap when I went over the top!" 120 Millionaires—But!

Third Party favors Race. Some journalist, who can wield a facile pen, could write a story about the Committee of 48 that would set the political wisecases thinking. There is nothing like it in the annals of politics. This organization has had in its making almost none of what is called publicity. No paid organizers have solicited members. Yet it has attained a membership of great numbers and that membership is so diffused that scarcely a community exists in America where there is not at least one forty-eighter. Back in January, 1919, when the Committee was first proposed at a dinner in New York City, the way of the public critic and the reformer was hard. A citizen who was brave enough to venture even a mild criticism of the conduct of public affairs, or even of the high cost of living, was set down in the public print as a bolshevist or some other kind of a dangerous person. It was a period of terrorism. The free America, of which we had once boasted, had ceased to be. The Committee of 48, when mention was made of it at all, was characterized as a committee of forty-eight dangerous radicals. Most people seemed to have forgotten, if they ever knew, that there were forty-eight states in the union and we were called on to explain constantly the meaning of "forty-eight". The first act of the Committee was to issue a "Call" to Americans. This proclamation will live in history along with similar documents which have expressed the feeling and thought of our people in times of crises. The daily papers, almost without exception, refused to publish it. Met with this solid wall of opposition on the part of the press, which is supposed to serve the public without bias or prejudice, someone thought of the only great institution which the people own—the postal system. We secured mailing lists and began to send out circular letters. Responses came by return mail, often accompanied by checks and lists of new names to be circulated. This developed into a system. We established almost an unchanging percentage of returns. We found that a hundred circular letters mailed would bring a percentage of answers. All the essential machinery of a new political party has been created by mail, and the character of our membership is of the highest order. We have the best and the bravest of the colleges, the churches, the professions, and o the farm and the workshop. We have also the finest type of the modern woman, who is soon to become a power in the political world. We not only have members, but we have leadership in thousands of communities. Our opponents will find that following the convention its nominees will be placed on the ballot in jig time, for we have made a careful digest of the election laws and are ready to go on the ballot under a dozen different party names should that be necessary. With such a membership, the financial problem is in a large measure solved. Up in the great northwest the Non-Partisan League has amazed the country with its organization and financing. The League has a membership of 200,000 farmers, who each pay $18 in dues. This amounts to the stupendous sum of $3,600,000, a pretty healthy campaign chest. The opposition poke much fun at the League farmers, calling them "$18 cuckers". On Tuesday, June 15th, a grand cause they are fully convinced this is the only way to freedom. They are learning that the fellow who pays the campaign expenses takes it out of the public after election, and the only way for the farmer to get "his" is to pay his own campaign expenses. There's a fly in that $18.00 ointment. The League uses organizers and automobiles and that costs money—lots of it, and it's slow even if it is sure. It will take the League, at the present rate of progress, twenty-five years to cover all the states. Postage stamps cost two cents each and your Uncle Samuel takes a paper organizer on the fastest trains and delivers him to the mail box. Not so bad when you come to think of it—and anyway it has worked. There are millions of people in America who are praying for someone or something to lead them out of the wilderness. There are other millions so full of suppressed wrath that they are aching for a chance to swat the twin organizations that have jointly ruled and despiled this country since the days when profiteers found the war the golden road to affluence. There are millions of people in this country who have two sets of opinions—one that they talk and another that they think. Thinking is the only thing that's free. People are looking for a ballot box to get even with the delegates who nominated Harding and Coolidge, and they are not looking toward San Francisco. Since the Republican convention, people are hunting up our membership blank, which they laid up on the clock shelf for future consideration, and sending it in, saying, "We are with you row". It seems that the Johnson campaign made a lot of people think that something different might happen in the Republican convention. People are coming to Chicago on July 10th to nominate a ticket of their own. Those who can't come—and of course that means literally thousands—but who wish they could, are going to be there in spirit. Read The Whip For The Latest Sporting News.

"Our Race Problem" The Chicago Tribune under the caption of "Our Race Problem", has given birth to inflammatory propaganda, disjointed logic, hectic philosophy and arrives at a biased and fallacious conclusion. Referring to the Abyssinian tragedy on Sunday, they state that "radical propaganda has filled the minds of Negroes in this country with wild dreams of power." The Tribune does not seem to be able to grasp the idea that the Negro can have a "wild dream" of justice and fair play at the hands of a "democracy". They cannot conceive that the one-sided mind of the "religious fanatic" is a weakness the same as the irresistible impulse of the white moron, the multifarious white bank bandits and labor sluggers who have menaced and endangered organized society in Chicago. We wonder if the Tribune realizes that criminal philosophy is to be found among Italians, Irishmen, Chinamen and white people. We wonder if these was any "race consciousness" in the Fitzgerald murder, in Gene Gary's wild activities, and Camorra's riotous reign. There is a striking similarity in the criminal mind wherever found. The Tribune further states that "race consciousness further expresses itself in claims for a complete race equality and more or less open appeal for race mixture." We can be with the Tribune. The cry for Irish for the department of justice can be of assistance. Can仕 of D'Annunzio, the pliants of suffragettes, the constitutional preamble, the democratic propaganda for America's part in the World War all bespeak of the highest form of race consciousness, absolute elimination of creed, color and class distinction. The Negro is becoming race conscious, should become race conscious and will continue to become race conscious until the horns of the dilemna are broken—the dilemna af amalgamation or annihilation. Dr. DuBoise's latest book, "Darkwater", a work of philosophical fiction, carries the counter propaganda of Thomas Dixon in "The Leopard's Spots," and bases itself upon the academic ramblings of Woodrow Wilson and his "Never freedom." "If a race conflict is certain, if theorist encourage Negroes to press claims of equality, "the element of certainty cannot be avoided. It the Negroes did not preach thru their theorists and even ther "pussyfooting politicians" the claims of liberty, freedom and justice, they would be less than freemen, less than American citizens, less than taxpyers and less than veterans from the World War. "If the instinct against mixture is as deep as any we have and will be defended against without ruth" as the Tribune states, the Tribune Editor is too racially conscious himself, too unchristian to appreciate the broad principles of the brotherhood of man, too blinded to see his argument against himself. Judging from the infamy that white men have perpetrated upon colored women as shown by the hordes of mulattoes and judging from the general attraction of men and womn it appears that the instinct against admixture is not so strong and needs no "defense without ruth." Dangerous Days And Dangerous Men The Danger Days of America are at hand. The Government with its judicial and legislative snobbists stand on dangerous ground. The quicksands of capitalistic improvidence lie before us. The souls of impoverished and emaciated Americans rebel against the shams of party exploitation and economic tyranny. The country is infested with dangerous men. These men are the captains of finance and their political "rubber stamps." These men have thrown us into labor strife and political revolution. We cry "Freedom and Liberty!" We cry Salvation from our Oppressors. The radical breath of opposition fills every gathering, religious, political or economic. Radical strains can always be heard reverberating from the responsive chords of human hearts. Sometimes muffled, sometimes disguised, sometimes feeble or forced, but ALWAYS present. Radicalism is evinced by desires for something freer, something fine, something newer. The formation of new parties, the extension of labor organization, the lowering of the color bars, the consolidation of religious orders, the spread of propaganda and the denouement of false prophets proves that people are tired of the OLD ORDER of affairs and that these are dangerous days for dangerous men. As usual the dangerous men have shifted or have at least attempted to shift its weight upon the shoulder of Negroes.

O AND CHICAGO, PRESENT papers and magazines that the Negroes were becoming dangerous, that "black ascendency" had begun, that political parties were controlled by "dangerous blacks." They have accused Negro freethinkers as being anarchists and have styled those who have fearlessly cried for race consciousness as traitors and revolutionists. The capitalists and their political dummies have recognized that the freedom cry of Negroes backed up by valiant and determined agitation will result in coalitions with the other dissatisfied groups and realized that this will militate towards the abolition of color prejudice, labor friction and make color and class distinctions less profitable. The men higher up in America, the Wall Street Bears and Bulls and their henchmen in the high courts and in our legislative bodies have realized that the Negroes, especially the Negro in the South, were very valuable chattels. They work long and tediously for little pay and no advancement. They know that lynching in the South and the spread of hatred propaganda in the North would intensify race prejudice and would keep the Negro afraid to organize and timorous about agitating his cause. They know that the Negro's vote under the borough system or by the easier way of buying them would strongly entrench them for their further riches. This condition of affairs has reacted against all labor and political order and they realize that the "Southern Sleeping Giant" (The Negro) must wake up. He yawned and stretched after the war. His editors threw cold water in his face. He now twists and stretches. He soon will be shaking himself and begin rising to his feet to break his economic manacles. He is fast learning the first lessons in Radicalism, which is intelligent organization. His leaders are styled "dangerous" because they are trying to work the motto, "Liberty, justice and equality." The Negro is not dangerous. He is not seeking domination or personal ascendency. His oppressors are the dangerous type who divert the ideals of government, hoard up the wealth, starve the people, intensify race friction and then laugh as they rattle their bloody shekels gathered from dead men's eyes. These are dangerous days for them. The Negro is awakening for the inevitable struggle which will result in his real emancipation. The Meaning Of The Flag Burning An American flag has been burned here in Chicago by a Negro. This is history's first opportunity to record contempt for the American flag by a black man. The Negro has always been styled as the exemplification of loyalty and patriotism. His civic escutcheon has been untarnished by reason of his continued repudiation of treason. His servility, humility, and fidelity have made him the "half-man" of America, and the underdog of civilization. While Ireland produced her Sir Roger Cassiment, France her Cillieux, and America her Duby, the Negro received to the ideals of democracy and worshipped the Stars and Stripes. During the year following the signing of the armistice and the declaration of peace with Germany, 78 Negroes were lynched, 14 were burned at the stake, of whom 10 were soldiers just returned from France, the altar of Democracy, and one was a woman. 28 race riots have occurred and hundreds have been killed and wounded. Negroes have been segregated, disfranchised, and discriminated against. He still remains loyal as a group in spite of all of this. His faith still remains unshaken in the good in humanity. But dissatisfaction, and disappointment caused by the fast fading ideals for which he bled in France are intensifying his racial resentment and he is becoming an easy prey for the religious fanatic and the ultra radical who sow the seed of anarchy in his emotional heart. The dispassionate thinkers among Negroes want no flag burning, neither do they want any human burning. The government wants good citizens and loyalty. The government wants no race of flag desecrators, neither should it want its citizens hanged and burned not only when they are clothed in the plain garb of everyday citizens, but much the less when they wear the sacred uniform and insignia of the nation. The dispassionate thinkers of America do not approve of American soldiers mobbing colored women and children as they did a few days ago at Waukegan. Neither do they approve of quasi-political religious fanatics, be they white or black, to kill American sailors. What the best among us all want is square dealing, fair play, and unstinted justice. The Flag must be protected from insult. Colored people and their homes must also be protected from violence and bombing. Lynchers and vandals must be eliminated. Patriotism, equality, and justice must rule the day. THE NEGRO AND CHICAGO, PAST AND PRESENT By Lieut. J. E. Hawkins (By Lieut. J. E. Hawkins.) MAJOR ROBERT R. JACKSON. Robert R. Jackson, is one of the very few who can boast of being Chicago born and if birth birth place can count he certainly can live up to it as he is a "born hustler" and a Chicago Booster. "Bob" Jackson, as he is called by those who know him best has not only brought great credit unto himself but the Chicago Negro as well as he has possibly held more positions of trust and merit than any one colored man of this community. He graduated from the "Old Jones" School in 1883, and then entered the South Division High School, later, thru Civil Service examination he was appointed a clerk in the Chicago Post Office and subsequently was promoted until he reached the rank of assistant superintendent of Armour Station. --- THE CHICAGO WHIP OF THE Negroes were becoming danger- had begun, that political parties was blacks."

CHICAGO, PAST AND SENT He joined the old 9th Battalion Illinois National Guard in 1888, as a drummer boy and later was commissioned to organize Company D, and subsequently was elected captain. When the Spanish War broke out the battalion was ordered to Springfield, Ill., and "Bob" was advanced to the rank of a major by Governor John R. Tanner, and held this rank until 1917 with great credit to his own self and was considered by military authorities to be one of the best colored officers in the army. The Major has long been a fraternal man and has been a member of all the old standard lodges in the city, shortly after the War with Spain he was elected General of the Colored Knights of Pythias of the World which at that time numbered about two hundred uniformed men, and at --- the present time numbers twenty-five thousand. Many unfair critics claim that it was thru his pull with this organization that he became prosperous; this last is not so as we know that "Bob" not only created the uniform rank but in doing so he created a position which he used as a stepping stone to other success. In 1912, the Major was elected to the House of Representatives and filled his position with such credit that he was twice re-elected, filling three successive terms and during that time made one of the most brilliant records in the Illinois General Assembly. He was in the post office twenty one years and during that time he never had a mark against his credit and only resigned thru business necessity as the printing company he had organized had grown to such proportions that it required all of his per personal attention, and at the present writing is the largest printing company operated by the race in the country. The printing orders are not solely confined to the race as many orders come from the Government, State, and private corporations as the work done by this firm is considered to be of the very highest type. Soldiering was "Bob's" hobby, and he was known as one of the greatest drill masters in the State, many old timers will no doubt remember company D was better known as "Jackson's Zouaves"; this company carried off more drill trophies than any similar organization in the country. While in his "teens" he worked his way thru school by selling newspapers and "burning leather", this last is better known to the old-timer as shining shoes. In his spare time he practiced on the mandolin until he became proficient and in the summer evenings together with the Riley boys — who were accomplished musicians, they would go over on the Avenue and give serenades in front of the palatial homes of the ultra rich, and the boys would be rewarded with substantial sums of money which Robert put to excellent use. In April of 1918 he was elected Alderman of the Second Ward and filled the position with such credit that he was re-elected in February of 1920, the daily papers claiming that he made one of the cleanest records of any member of the City Council. He is a married man and has fathered seven children and succeeded in raising two of the seven, one boy and a girl. The girl was named Naomi and died a few months ago, George E. Jackson, the son, better known as "Zowie" holds a good position in the employ of the U. S. Government and bids fair to follow in his fathers foot steps. The race has received much benefit from such men as "Bob" Jackson, and it will be thrue the untiring efforts employed by this man that we shall be lifted out of the "deaths of obscurity" and industrial success that we aspire to. The best thing and the worst thing that his enemies can say about him is that he has been honest and on the square with his people, for not one word of suggestion has ever been given of his "putting over a shady deal". When asked the question as to how he acquired his hustling ability, he tells the following story: "Once upon a time a frog lived in a pond near 63rd Street and Michigan Avenue wandered over to a freight depot in Grand Crossing; he jumped up on the platform on which were piled some cans of milk. One of the cans were opened — hearing a man coming down the platform he became frightened and jumped into the can; shortly after he was in the can another frog jumped in. The man coming up the platform saw the open can of milk and closed it. The can was then placed on the cars and started on its journey. The frog number one asked frog number two where he came from. Frog number two replied that he was from Philadelphia, they then grew silent. After a short time frog number two said: I am drowning. Frog one said: Hustle, hustle, hustle. After a long time frog two two was silent and a man came, took the can from the car, out on the platform and removed the cover, when he looked in he saw a frog setting on an island of butter, and when he reached in the frog jumped out and got away. He poured the milk from the can and found a dead frog at the bottom. The frog that got away was the Chicago frog who had worked so fast that he churned the island of butter and rested upon it. The Philadelphia frog did not hustle but bursed. Moral: Hustle Makes a Difference. "Daddy, what's a thief?" "Why, a man who is caught robbing another." "And what if he isn't caught? "A financier, my son." About the only thing that's gone down since Palmer entered his drive on the high cost of living are Liberty bonds. - Nonpartisan Leader. Lynching Not Subject To Geographical Line. [Birmingham-Age Herald—June 17] have been the product of the habit of The lynching of three negroes at Duval lynching for that crime. Stop that luth. Minn., for assault on a white crime and lynchings will be few and girl is no more of a surprise than had far between. Lynching By A Northern Mob. (Birmingham-Age Herald—June 17) The lynching of three negroes at Du luth, Minn., for assault on a white girl is no more of a surprise than the lynching taken place in Mississippi, Alabama or Georgia. Where that crime occurs the moles metes out punishment. Man will care for his women and he who abuses them is headed to quick immolation on the altar of instinct. As faith rises above mathematical demonstration, man's protective spirit in relation to women brushes restraint aside and goes straight to the mark of natural law. More lynchings occur in the South simply because there are more negroes in the south and the crime is oftener perpetrated here. The difference between the north and the south with respect to the negro is that the south stops at the individual criminal while the north, once the racial feeling is aroused, strikes with ungovernable rage at numbers. Negroes are sometimes lynched for other causes than attacks on women. So have white men been lynched for other causes, both north and south. The west strung up cattle thieves sumarily. Lynchings for causes other than attacks on women in the south (Chicago Daily News—June 17) Duluth, Proctor Knett's "zenith city of the unsweet sens", is the latest to fall a victim to mob rule. Following an attack on a white girl, six negroes were taken from a police station in that community and three of them were hanged by a mob. Whether the men hanged were guilty the mob of course, did not know, although it conducted what it chose to call a trial and turned three of its captives back into the police. But the mob sought not justice so much as it sought vengeance, as all mobs do, and taking three lives made a satisfying score. The other negroes under arrest in connection with the crime will come to trial. If found guilty they will be punished to the limit of the law, it is to HEALTH HINTS. By J. Sylvander Trice, M. D. The advancement of the science of medicine has followed very closely the progress of civilization. In fact the history of medicine is very closely allied to the history of mankind. In studying both the history of civilization and of medicine we find that in the period of retrogression in civilization there is also recorded a period of retrogression in medicine. This can be expected after consideration when it comes to our minds that when civilization advances there is when development of man's mental powers, and that medicine depends upon man's mental condition. It also comes to our attention that any advancement in medicine will give a similar advancement in civilization—the better we are able to keep our bodies and organs in normal working order (and any progress that man makes in medical science affords us greater and better means of preserving our normal working conditions of the body and its organs), will cause greater mental advancement, and mental advancement means the advancement and progress of civilization. Therefore, where we find progression and advancement in civilization we also find advancements and greater activities in the medical world; thus greater and better civilization means greater and better medical activities, and all great discoveries made in medicine that will improve the health of the people means greater progress of civilization. In other words the History of a Civilization or Nation is the History of its Medical Activities From the above statement it will become evident that to one who is familiar with the History of Man it is easy to trace the History of Medicine as the two are so closely allied. The history of medicine is divided into five great periods:— 1. Prehistoric and Mythical Medicine from the earliest times to 460 B. C. 2. Greek and Roman Medicine, from 460 B. C. to the downfall of the Western Empire, 476 A. D. 3. Medieval Medicine, from 476 A. D. to 1493 A. D. 4. Philosophical Medicine, from 1493 to 1822. 5. Scientific Medicine, from 1822 to the present time. From time to time beginning next week the writer will discuss the History of Medicine, taking up the most important events as time and space will not permit going into minute de- Had the Duluth crime occurred in Georgia the actual assailant would have been lynched. In Duluth they went at it in wholesale style. Not long ago in Knoxville, a southern city, the aim of the law extended to the protection of a negro fiend who had ravished and murdered a number of women, the last a white girl in her early teens. Members of the mob were shot down and killed. The negro was tried, convicted and suffered the law in the usual way. In Duluth thirty policemen in the jail enclosure gave way to the mob after the sole and ridiculous effort of dispersing it with a stream of water. The negro would make greater progress toward the elimination of lynching if less attention were paid to lynching statistics and more to preachment of the inevitable consequence of this cropping out of the savage in the race. More progress would be made in securing full justice in the courts were a stop put to the habit of harboring known criminals. EK'S BEST ORIAL.

Military forces have restored order in Duluth, but the damage to the city's reputation has bone done. Trust mobs anywhere for that. But such outbreaks are not expected in cities like Duluth, and this one would have had a far less offensive look if the police had not so spinelessly yielded up the victims to the liegers. Chicago is in no position to assume a pharisaical attitude toward other cities that suffer from such outrages. It, like every other community, should take to itself the lesson taught by them—no temporizing with mobs; sure and speedy punishment of crime. tails and lesser important features. Help racial improvement by giving financial aid to institutions that assist in restoring the sick to health; that help keep the body and its organs in normal working order—as racial Hospitals, Y. M. C. A. and Y. W. C. A., etc. Do not foster but throttle down all anarchistic activities and propaganda led by unworthy members of our race and outcasts of the white race. Progress is the result of work of radicals, but retrogression, race-riots, etc. are results of work of anarchists. Colonization is not what we want, we are here and are here to stay and here to uphold our government, not to tear it down; we are here and here to make this country fit for to live in. We truly cannot make this country fit to live in by encouraging anarchistic movements. Anarchistic movements bring trouble that we will not be able to withstand. See that our homes are in good sanitary conditions, thus help ward off diseases. Avoid overcrowded homes and see that your children get plenty of good food and plenty of fresh air and outdoor exercise. J. Sylvander Trice, M. D., 2902 South State Street Why Editors Are Baldheaded. An exchange says: Most anyone can be an editor. All the editor has got to do is to sit at a desk six days out of the week, four weeks of the month, and twelve months of the year, and "edit" such stuff as this: Mrs. Jones of Cactus let a can opener slip last week and cut herself in the pantry. A mischievous lad of Poketown threw a stone and struck Mr. Pike in the alley last Tuesday. John Doe climbed on the roof of his house last week and fell striking himself on the back porch. While Harold Green was escorting Miss Violet Wise from the church social last Saturday night a savage dog attacked them and bit Mr. Green several times on the public square. Isaiah Trimmer of Running Creek was playing with a cat Friday when it sertched him on the veranda. Mr. Fong, while harnessing a broncho last Saturday, was kicked just south of the corn crib.
