RISING FROM RUINS, TULSA TO REMOVE MAYOR
Say Horrible Destruction Of Life and Property Was Due To Gross Negligence.
TULSA, Okla, une 11—Following a night and day of bloodshed and rapine which is without equal in the history of American racial friction, Tulsa is quietly settling down to the task of reconstruction and rehabilitation.
Chicago Man's Father Held
Among those held in connection with the riot is K. B. Stradford, who is now under arrest in Independence, Kans., pending extradition. Mr. Stradford, who is a former hotel proprietor, is the father of Att'y C. Francis Stradford, of Chicago. He is charged with rioting, and if convicted under the conditions can be punished with death. Mr. Stradford has refused to return to Tulsa, and a strong fight against his extradition is expected.
According to claims made by city officials, the dead will not number more than thirty. As yet, it is impossible to obtain an accurate list of the known dead. A partial list of members of our Race known to be dead is as follows:
Noted Doctor Killed
Dr. A. C. Jackson, one of the most successful physicians of the southwest, Dr. Jackson was killed while running from his home which was in flames. He was killed instantaneously when his services were needed the most. John Wheeler, employee of the First National Bank of Tulsa. Killed while on his way to work Wednesday morning. J. W. Williams, proprietor of the Dreamland Theatre. The Dreamland which was located directly across the street from a white theatre, was burned to the ground. It was said to be picked as one of the first targets because it materially reduced the white theatre's patronage.
Many Women Wounded
Many women were wounded by stray bullets. They were taken care of at the Morningside Hospital. Doctor's records show 63 taken care of

"A PAPER WITH A POLICY" The Chicago Whip AN INDEPENDENT WEEKLY
CLAIM "BIG MISTAKE"
STARTED TULSA RIOT
TULSA, Okla., June 11. After the destruction of millions of dollars' worth of property and the death and wounding of scores of people, the real cause of the Tulsa riot has come to light.
It has been ascertained that Dick Rowland stepped into a store elevator and accidentally stepped on the foot of Sarah Page, a white elevator girl. She slapped him and he seized her by the arm.
The girl screamed and a floor walker seized Rowland and turned him over to the police. The girl filed a charge of assault and battery against Rowland.
An afternoon paper in reporting the incident that caused the excitement used the word "assault," but gave insufficient information to confine the term to a mere altercation. The public got the meaning that rape had been attempted, which was untrue.
Y. M. C. A. CAMP SCENE OF NEAR RACE RIOT
MORRILTON, Ark. June 11 — Christianity became involved in race friction over her early last week when a mob of disgruntled whites took offense at the fact that 25 men of our Race were employed in the construction of a summer camp for the Y. M. C. A. They demanded that the men be discharged, and when their demand was ignored, formed a mob to drive them away, but were unsuccessful.
At this point Y. M. C. A. officials sent for firearms to protect the workers. The mob finally disbanded and the work proceeded.
EMPTY STOMACH, HUNGRY
BROKE. PORK CHOPS.BULLETS
Broke, homeless, with an empty stomach, and of the firm conviction that the world owed him a living, John H. Cofealt, 22, walked into a restaurant at 2076 State St., Friday, and consumed an extra order of pork chops. When called upon to pay his check, he explained his poverty to the cashier, adding that an empty stomach had no conscience. Frank Williams, 2241 Cottage Grove Ave., who presides over the destinies of the restaurant, took the law into his own hands and aimed a bullet at Cofealt's conscienceless stomach. His aim was poor, however, and the bullet found its way into Cofealt's foot. Both are now under arrest.
2nd Ward Clings To Thompson's Sinking Ship
2nd Ward Clings To Thompson's Sinking Ship
Cook County went to the polls Monday and administered a smashing defeat to the Thompson judicial candidates, defeating the City Hall ticket by a majority of 100,000.
In spite of the revulsion of feeling shown against the Mayor, however, the Second Ward, as usual, slow to awaken to the march of events, voted 3 to 1 for "Big Bill."
The jail bond proposition, a Thompson scheme, which meant thousands of dollars' worth of patronage for Thompson appointees, also went down in the crash.
The proposal authorizing the board of education to furnish free textbooks to school children appears to have passed.
Although the Mayor's machine has not been wrecked, politicians see the beginning of the end of Tammany in Illinois. It is interesting to note that the Second ward, which was the first to push the Mayor to the front, is the last to desert his raft as it sinks to defeat.
PEACEMAKER GETS WORST OF FIGHT
PEACEMAKER GETS WORST OF FIGHT
There is very little likelihood that Hiram Boulder, 3855 Dearborn St., will ever attempt the role of peacemaker again. Boulder, who is 38 years old, attempted to act as peacemaker between Mrs. Henrietta Jones and her husband, Thomas Jones, in a family quarrel the Jones' were having at their home, 3855 Dearborn St., June 3. Whether Boulder's intentions were misunderstood has not been ascertained. The most that is known is, that after Boulder regained consciousness he found that he been thrown down stairs and that his left arm had been fractured in addition to various and sundry other bruises and lacerations he found on his person.
LAWMAKER SLAYS UNARMED MAN "TO RESCUE FIVE"
SHREVEPORT La., June 11. Claiming that he was "saving the lives" of five other men and himself, Stewart Douglas, White, a member of the Louisiana state legislature, turned a shotgun on Benjamin Gaton, who was unarmed, and shot him to death. Douglas claims that Gaton was about to attack him with comrades, and his only hope of saving his life and the lives of his friends was to shoot the man to death. He has not been arrested.
CHICAGO, ILL., SATURDAY, JUNE 11th, 1921
ONLY 2 MORE WEEKS OF WHIP AUTO RACE
Campaign Speeding Up Or Home Stretch—Last Chance For Big Votes Ends June 18.
SPEEDING UP!—that most fittingly describes the feverish activity being shown in The Whip's great $4,500.00 automobile and the Cash prize race. Swinging into line, all atingle with high hopes and ambition, contestants in the now famous Dixie Flyer touring car campaign have begun to swell their vote totals to a high mark and, from now on to the finish, it will be mighty exciting race.
The First Period which closed last Saturday night was a very productive time for the candidates. Thousands of votes are cast and even as we go to press this week, the aggressive contestants are hitting a fast and furious pace, urged on to do their utmost because of the realization that Saturday night, June 25th, is the last day of the race.
It is a strange coincidence, too, something unusual in affairs of this kind, but each of the "live wire" candidates who are striving for first honors and the grand capital prize of $1,700.00 Dixie Flyer touring car, are benefiting so equally that it is necessary to do hair-line figuring to determine the leader up to the present time.
The competition, therefore, so far as the relative standings of the contestants is concerned, depends almost entirely upon the results accomplished by the various workers between now and the finish as to who the real winners will be. The above is not more important than the sake of telling, but a real fact—theories and timings, notwithstanding. The struggle for supremacy will be fought out during the next few days for the campaign comes to a fateful close in just two weeks from this Saturday—just 14 days.
Contestants who expect to be among the big prize winners when the judges announce their decision on June 25th will have to do more than clip coupons to land the prize of their choice. This is not a coupon-clipping campaign. It is a subscription campaign and you will have to get subscriptions to win.
Now For the Finish
And now for the whirlwind finish. Now for the sensations and surprises. These are the moments of triumph and energy of the candidates. Here is where their courage upholds them and makes them FIGHT, or the lack of courage takes the place, trailing in the训. WHICH will it be that you be trained to "wolf" Supreme course and be equipped to fight? Supreme spirit. It is vitally important that your greatest efforts be put forth NOW. Your greatest efforts are more rapidly during these last two final weeks. The
Votes will be piling up much more rapidly during these last two final weeks. The LIVEST and MOST IMPORTANT part of (Continued on Page 3.)

Police are on the outlook for Ben Carter, 18, who arrived in the city Monday from Youngstown, O., killed Ernest Waller Tuesdav, and then made good his escape. Waller was slain early Tuesday afternoon at his home, 3314 Rhodes Ave., after a quarrel with Carter. Carter is said to have lived with mother at 17 N. Prospect Ave., Youngtown, and police think he may have fled back there. Ohio authorities have been wired to watch for him.
RALPH TYLER, FAMOUS SCRIBE IS DEAD
RALPH TYLER, FAMOUS SCRIBE IS DEAD
COLUMBUS, Ohio, June 11.—Ralph W. Tyler, nationally known as one of the leading newspaper men of the Race, died at his home here last Wednesday. He had been confined to his bed only a short time. Mr. Tyler has been an active figure in American newspaper circles for many for many years. At the time of his death he was writing for the Columbus Evening Citizen (white). During the war he was designated by President Wilson as special war correspondent and assigned to the 92nd division. He went to the front with the unit and witnessed many of its battles. He is survived by a wife and three sons.
'CON' MEN WORK IN SHADOW OF POLICE STATION
So successful were the operations of two confidence men that they took one of their victims into the very shadow of the 20th St. police station Monday to explain to her how they were going to divide the purse which they had just found containing $1,600, provided, however, that she could get $100 with which to make even change. They had succeeded in fleeing two women, had failed in the case of the third, and were working on their fourth prospect when captured by policemen. They described themselves as Cecil Hoffman and Arthur Crutcheld, both of 3106 Wabash Ave. Miss Bertha Allison, 3106 Rhodes Ave., was the third of their prospective victims, who, seeing through the game, notified the police, and aided the arrest of the men.

OXFORD, Pa., June 11.—"The solving of your race problem is up to you and the members of your own race," said President Harding to the graduating class of the Lincoln University theological seminary here Monday.
THODYING, STICKS TO DISCREDITED TALE OF ATTACK
LOUISVILLE, Ky., June 11.—All though standing on the threshold of death itself, Mrs. Mollie Coyle, 52, 41' Fhre Ave, stuck to a story to the effect that she had been struck by an unidentified man of our Race. She was found unconscious at the foot of the steps leading into her house. Gotttried Schlaug, white, was standing directly underneath the steps when the aged woman stumbled and fell down them. He swears that no other woman was along with her witness swear that Mrs. Coyle was alone the time of her accident. Yet, so inbred is it in Southern whites to lay every ill at a Black man's door, that Mrs. Coyle died with this repudiated falsehood on her lips.

KILLSMAN WHO THREATENS TO MURDER HER
16-Yr-Old Son's Testimony Exonerates Mother At Dramatic Inquest.
Before a throng that taxed to capacity the chapel of Williamson's undertaking partors Monday morning and in the presence of his legitimate wife, Mrs. Mary E. Freeman, the common-law wife of London E. Freeman, related to the coroner's jury how she slew her common-law husband Saturday night in their home at 523 W. 54th Place.
Confronts Legitimate Wife.
Freeman's legitimate wife, Mrs. Pearl Freeman, 3348 State St. Apt. 421, confronted the woman with whom her husband had been living for the past eight years, and told the coroner's jury in clear and intelligent terms how she had become separated from her husband fourteen years ago, and from his statute him he had lived with and supported Mrs. Kelly as her husband.
Schoolboy's Dramatic Testimony.
The most dramatic testimony was offered by Clarence Kelly, 16-year-old son of Mrs. Mary Kelly-Freeman, who is a student at Englewood High school. Clarence related the story of the slaying in the clear, high tones of a schoolboy, saying that he had always thought that Freeman and his mother were husband and wife, and that Freeman was his legitimate stepfather. A vibration of emotion ran through the audience as Clarence made this declaration. Women were moved to tears when he placed his arms around his sobbing mother and said: "But it's all right, though, Mamma."
Story of the Slaving.
The story of the shooting as told by Clarence Kelly, Mrs. Kelly, and two other witnesses, Lewis R. Williams, 6226 Green St., and Joseph Waters, 503 W. 54th St., is one characteristic of the disrespect of a man for the woman with whom he is living out of wedlock.
Freeman was preparing to go with friends to Morgan Park to be initiated in a Masonic Lodge. He told his wife to prepare the customary lunch for such occasions. Although he failed to give her sufficient money to prepare the kind of lunch he wanted. He violently protested against the simple sandwiches she gave him. He went so far as to tell her "to be gone" when he returned, or he would kill her. When Mrs. Freeman signified her intention of remaining because she was unable to carry her furniture with her at that time of night, Freeman is said

COULD NOT CONVINCE JURY HE KILLED MEN THROUGH FEAR OF DEATH
Accepts Sentence Stoically. Makes Immediate Motion For New Trial. Hearing Set For July.
Covington, Ga., June 11—After 45 minutes of deliberation, Clyde Manning was found guilty of murder, with a recommendation for mercy, here last week.
Manning was on trial for his life in the famous "Death Farm" murder case.
He relied on the defense that he committed the murders at the command of his "master," John S. Williams, in order to save his own life.
Did Not Convince Jury
According to Georgia statutes, the charge of murder will not lie against an accused if he can prove to the jury that he committed the offense in order to save his own life. The jury's verdict thus proves that Manning did not convince them that he stood in danger of certain death if he had not obeyed his "master's" commands.
As in the case of Williams, the master-slayer, the recommendation for mercy automatically carries with it a sentence of life imprisonment.
The defense will probably ask for a new trial.
Manning was defended by Judge A. D. Meador, and E. Marvin Underwood, both white. They insisted that the state had failed to prove a malicious intent—the only possible means to meet Manning's plea that he had killed the men through fear. They read many legal decisions confirming the legal precept that crime committed in duress is not punishable.
Peonage Stories Retold
Virtually all of the testimony offered during the trial was a repition of the neonage stories told the jury at the Williams trial, of men and women huddled chained together in stockades like hogs, of the frequent beatings of
WIFE KILLS HER ENRAGED HUSBAND
(Continued From Page 1.)
to have seized an axe with the avowed intention of breaking up the furniture so his wife could easily move it. Lewis Williams, one of the witnesses, stopped him in this effort, and Freeman then began beating his wife, knocking her to her knees. As she fell, she seized a pistol lying on the table, and firing once missed her mark; firing the second time, the bullet took deadly effect and Freeman died a few seconds later with an oath on his lips.
Mrs. Freeman was fully exonerated by the coroner's jury.
HOUSTON, Texas, June 11.—Mrs. Delia Tolar, 716 San Felipe St., was found dead in the room from a gunshot wound. A verdict of suicide was returned.

Manning testified that Williams came into possession of him by paying $5.00 for him at the Atlanta stockade. He said Williams paid him fifteen, twenty, sometimes twenty-five cents a week.
The prisoner accepted his sentence stoically and without any remarks. He was immediately started for the Atlanta jail.
The Antilles Bazaar Scores Big Success.
The Benefit Bazaar given at the Antilles Building, 3524 Michigan Blvd. May 24th to May 28th for the benefit of the Antillia Protective Association was well attended and was a decided success.

The decorations were exquisitely tasteful, the palm trees forming the entrance to the hall, giving the affair a distinctively tropical aspect.
On the whole the arrangements were very beautiful and merit much applause.

Only Ruins Left
It was shortly after midnight that whites, apparently carrying kerosene, or some other highly inflammable substance, entered the district and started the fires that before daylight had reduced it to smouldering ruins. Greenwood avenue, principal business street in the district, is a mass of broken bricks and debris. Only gas and water pipes, bath fixtures, bedsteads or other metal fixtures remain to mark the places where homes once stood. The residences remaining intact can almost be counted on one's hand. There is not an undamaged business building in the entire district.
The ruins of the burned district continued to smoulder until late Wednesday night. Here and there during the day the smoking debris would break into flames. Satisfied that all snipers had been put out of the way, flocked down Cincinnati and Detroit avenues to witness the results.
Personal belongings and household goods had been removed from many homes and piled in the streets. On the steps of the few houses that remained sat feeble and gray men and women, and occasionally a small child. The look in their eyes was one of dejection and supplication, judging from their attitude, it was not of material consequence to them whether they were well. Harmless themselves, they apparently could receive the brutality and fiendishness of men, would deliberately set fire to the homes of their friends and neighbors, and just as deliberately shoot them down in their tracks.
"Law Broke Down"
At a meeting in the Municipal Building, Tulsa citizens claimed the complete fall-down of the city and county law-enforcing agencies was responsible for the wholesale destruction of life and property.
Adjt-Gen. Barrett, commanding the State troops in Tulsa County, was emphatic in charging that a complete fall-down of the local peace officers was responsible for the rioting and said that the factors which led to it were a hysterical girl and an irresponsible newspaper reporter.
Gen. Barrett said that he came to Tulsa with 100 uniformed men from Oklahoma city and in short time pacified 25,000 armed, milling men, and said the sheriff could have done it with equal facility if he had used his power to deputize assistants. The General said the presence of six uniformed policemen or a half dozen Deputy Sheriffs at the county building Tuesday night when whites, bent on taking from the jail Dick Rowland, would have prevented the riot.
May Remove Mayor
A definite effort will be made by Attorney General Freeling and other state officers to remove from office Mayor Evans. Charges will be presented against the the special priorities when the special grand jury called by District Judge Biddison meets June 8, according to reports.

THE CHICAGO WHIP
Pillagers Busy
Pillagers preying on burned and bloodstained Tulsa gave authorities new problems to cope with. Systematic thievery in the districts razed during two days of race rioting was reported. Even pianos have been carried away from the district which was wrecked by race hatred. General Barrett, in charge of the troops, began centralizing the property found in ruined homes into one large heap for identification and protection.
U. S. SUPREME COURT DENIES REVIEW OF DISCRIMINATION CASES
Washington, D. C., June 11.—The Supreme Court of the United States last week refused to review several cases from Georgia courts involving claims in real estate suits. J. E. Sistrunk, of Atlanta, counsel for claimants, asserted that his clients were unable to secure justice in the state courts because of race discrimination. Nevertheless, the Supreme Court refused to go into the cases.

ence of a stricture or uncurred gonorrhea. (3) There may be a sense of burning during the act of urinating. (4) Again there may be increased frequency of urination with slight pain at its termination. (5) Alteration of the urinary stream is another significant symptom. The character of the stream may be thin and twisted, double or forked, thick and broad, "fan like". (6) Dribbling of urine after urination almost invariably occurs in well advanced cases.
Treatments are the only cure for stricture. If they are not treated they have a tendency to become worse and the results are acute retention and in this case the patient is subjected to an operation wherein had he began treatments early enough he would have avoided such an operation. Loss of manhood is also results from stricture.
There is absolutely no medicine taken internally that will cure a stricture. Repeated rapid or gradual dilatation before the stricture has become completely closed is the only means of curing a stricture.

What causes strictures? I was a victim of gonorrhea some few years ago and I believe now I have one of the consequences you spoke of in your articles. Kindly tell me the symptoms of a stricter through the columns of the Whip. Does treatments do it any good or does nature tend to heal it in a certain length of time? What medicine may I get from the drugstore to cure a stricture?
(1) The symptoms of stricture vary according to the severity of the disease. A stricture is a result of gonorrhea, either the germ itself or injecting too strong solution into the urethral canal at the time of the acute trouble, may cause stricture. Among the symptoms may be mentioned (1) a muco-purulent discharge from the penis. This is very noticeable on arising in the morning and is often spoken of as the "morning drop." (2) You may examine your urine by urinating in a clean glass. The urine may be perfectly clear; but if white mucus threads are present in the urine, that in itself shows the press-

ONLY 2 MORE WEEKS OF WHIP AUTO RACE
(Continued from page 1)
the campaign is now at hand. And, while all the candidates are practically on the same footing, those who want to win—those who have the ambition and energy to make a real showing in the vote column are afforded the huge opportunity of the campaign to forge ahead and get the winning votes.
From now on to the finish is the time when 100 per cent work and 100 per cent RESULTS come in. Tis the coward who quits to misfortune; Tis the knave who changes each day; Tis the fool who starts like a whirlwind. Then throws all his chances away.
The time to succeed is when others Discouraged, shows traces of tire; The battle is fought on the com-mstretch, the final stretch; and the wire. Second Period Votes Extremely Important. The last big vote offer of The Whip's short campaign comes to a close in just a week from this Saturday night, June 18th
The Subscriber's Part
Contestants must necessarily depend upon the assistance of their friends and acquaintances to win or lose. You have not once had to help your subscription, have not once and help one of the ambitious candidates along. Your subscription will be well comed and an offer of volunteering will be on the part of the recipient. You probably intend taking the Whip—you need it and should get it for two, three, four, five or ten years and give the votes to the candidate of your choice.
Warning
It should be remembered that the last of the BIG VOTES will be discontinued after Saturday night at 10 am at 9 o'clock, after the campaign ends. If the campaign goes into effect, IT IS IMPERATIVE for the candidates to work hard every remaining day, they will have to deal with the part of the rules and regulations which says that "should any candidate become a TIVELY calling officer, you will thereby forfeit all rights to a truce or a cash commission." There is no cause for misunderstanding of this rule, calling officers will be spending solely on the efforts of their friends. There are some candidates whose names appear in the standings of the contestants who are apparently taking no active part in the campaign, and spending solely on the efforts of their friends. Therefore, in accordance with the rules of the competition, all candidates who fail to make a showing there will yet plenty of time to make a showing in the race are the ones who will be badly disappointed when The Whit's campaign is closed. If the campaign is final warning
"Live" Candidates Enthusiastic
The acquisition of the real workers in The Wilma's big prize race is becoming contagious. It has spread to their friends and acquaintances. Candidates when calling at the office are expressing new determination to win the race, and all important period. Letters from out-of-town candidates are tiled with the same sort of enthusiasm which, taken altogether, makes one believe that the race is even more spirted and close than it has been up to the present time.
Time For Action
It is time for action and hustle now. Perserverance and the present BIG VOTE offer can bring victory to any man or woman in the race. "Good intentions" merely will not win—will all be winning and "climbing" in the world will do no good. The "live ones" who will come out on top are the ones who are now WORKING and WORKING hard. From the looks of things now, some of the instants in the race among the leaders will be the ones most disappointed when the final count is made. Conversation and "coupon-clipping" won't win—it takes VOTES and to get the tickets you must get the subscriptions and GET THE TICKETS.
CAMPAIGN NOTES
Every Candidate should be putting forth every possible effort from now on up to Saturday night, June 18th at 9:00 o'clock. It is the last chance to win, and the big wins are the real work done by most of the candidates and it is now time to make every day count. The race is a red-hot one and it will mean some real honest-to-goodness speed for each individual candidate. Miss Edna Purifoy has made a wonderful show in her campaign and leading this week.

How To Get Over 1.500.000 Votes
Just two 10-year subscriptions to The Chicago Whip will count you 1,220,000 votes. One 5-year subscription credits you with 280,000 more votes. This makes a total of 1,500,000 votes for only three good subscriptions. In addition, with the two 10-year subscriptions and the one 5-year subscription you get 200,000 EXTRA votes, making a grand total of 1,700,000 votes.
This is the way to pile up a big vote score—this is the way to get the winning votes that will land the brand new $1,700.00 Dixie Flyer touring car. Remember that the last chance to land votes on the DOUBLE QUICK ends Saturday night, June 18th at 9 o'clock. After that hour the very lowest vote offer of the campaign goes into effect.
Remember that the 2, 3, 4, 5 and 10-year subscriptions count the greatest number of votes.
THE CANDIDATES
We have a brand new candidate this week
Mrs. Charlie Copeland. She is in the cam
paign to win and you want to watch her
She has a mighty fine start.
Mrs. A. L. Writener was out of town last week but she was able to bring her vote standing up in line shape. Mrs. Conn has boosted her score up considerably.
C. F. Armstrong of Pittsburgh, Pa., is not another new entrant in the Whit's Automobile and Cash Distribution Campaign. He will no doubt be a real campaigner.
Sophia Boaz certainly has a lot of friends who continue to send in votes for her. Miss Zenin Douglas says that she has a big bunch of prospects and when she get them around, she's ready.
Miss Mary Byrd is by no means an easy one to lose track of for she has been doing her work. Miss Sailor Whitted is going after first honors and she is a fine campaigner too. Mrs. Wesley Burton is making things hum, and she is making recruits to help her win the Whip's Dice Fly. J. L. Carter is going to be a hard one to handle the shelf. Watch him in the next three weeks.
Miss Mariam Chattert, of New Orleans is making a very fine showing. She is putting forth some real efforts and her friends in Iowa are giving her some mighty face support.
Mrs. B. Wiley Williams of New York, who
is another new candidate, is going to be heard from when she gets all of her prospects signed up. She has a large field to work with no doubt be a real contender for honors. Another new candidate, Mrs. Florence Long, from Houston, Texas, has started off in college while she is visiting Mrs. W. P. Green of Chicago. Olive Malone is getting stronger and stronger in the Whip's campaign. Miss Elizabeth Hart says she's not resting on her ears; that's the right idea. Miss Hart, for when one of the leaders begins to rest forward, always someone else waiting to forward. Between now and next Saturday night, June 18, means busy days in Delahalia Berry. She is the last days to pile up votes on the double quick.
Sandy W. Trice is going to heat his own previous record before the last of the BIG VOTES comes.
Sandy W. Trice's more speed is all that is necessary to put Mrs. S. W. Springer on top.
Mrs. Helen Perry, Prof. James Munday, Mrs. S. B. Davis, Mrs. Nell Calloway and Mrs. Anna Ecton are going to "Fight out" a fighter.
Mrs. Mae Burks plans to be in the lead after the big voting of the next few days.

O!
NOSEY was ambling along State Street the other evening, his sharp eyes taking in all of the "sights" when he stopped suddenly as he looked through the window of a restaurant. A man and woman were eating their evening meal. It was a big meal, too. The man had evidently finished his steak and salad and was engaged in gently licking the left side of the lady's face. Nosey was amazed at the action and went inside to investigate. It turned out that some of the peach cobbler had stuck his side to the lady's face and he had been asked to remove it. He did the best he could and in the way that he liked best he admitted. No accounting for tastes but Nosey warns all girls of the man with the little mustache who always wants to remove something from her cheek.
---
ON the boulevard one can see funny things happen. Nosey was concealed behind the curtains of one of Chicago's popular boulevards watching "things" go along. A gentleman "of color" with two beautiful ladies (Oh very fair and pink), came along in a growing high powered car. The car with the dark man and the "fair ones" was slightly brushed by a car containing two white men. The dark man demonstrated in loud terms "on the boulevard." The white man looked at the ladies and saw that they might be even his sisters and descended from his chariot to spit in their faces and call them names which even made Nosey blush under his coat of natural tan. The white man shaped the face of the man of color, returned to his car and departed. The man of color rushed off for his gang and other things. When "the gang" returned the man could not be found. A bystander remarked that white men objected to social equality unless they were managing the "circus." Nosey smiled in agreement and passed on.
---
SOME crowd gathered at The Amateur Minstrel's performance last week and "society" was there in full dress and undressed. Nosey moved through the gathering and saw many things which started him on a round of investigating. He was particularly interested in that man who had promised eight girls to be their escort to the affair but the "hady" who takes care of his apartment suddenly returned to town from the "country" and he had no alternative but to take her as he cannot refuse her anything. Three of the disappointed "buds" came with other escorts and the eyes they made at the gentleman's compound round out that he cut his grave. Nosey found out that he cut his grave. The next day to make sure that the phone was out of order, but one of the young ladies declared that she can invoke the law to make him act differently towards her after all his promises. You can never tell what is going to happen these days since women have taken to using firearms so successfully. The slogan is, "A few men less will not matter."
---
EVERY time Nosey wanders around Chicago's largest apartment buildings he sees some individual trying to imitate those steep jacks which made crowds shiver with their climbing stunts during the Liberty Loan Drives. Nosey saw a man clinging to a window sill five stories up last Wednesday morning about four o'clock trying to get his foot on the fire escape. He tried four times before he cried for help. A woman came to the window, looked at him, swore and shut the window. He yelled again and she came to the window again but with a baseball bat in her hand. They parleyed a bit then reached into his pants pocket extracted his roll and then assisted him through the window. Nosey decided if ever he went out with the thought that he might have to swing from a window sill, he would have his roll along to make sure that he would get out of danger.
YOU can never tell when a dumb animal will turn you down. Nosey asked a young married lady how she "contracted" the black eye she was wearing and was told that she hit her head on the bed in the dark. Nosey afterward found out that her cute little dog had been playing in the yard next door and was used as a message bearer between the little wife and the gay old bird next door. Hubby called the dog in the house and noticed that it had a little note tied around its neck. He read it, then looked for his wife. He found her. Remember dogs can't do everything.

To The You Know 'Em Editor
I know you know those society butterflies that had their wings clipped the other night while slumming. Well tell them that they should have known that cigarettes are not pink teas and fights, police raids and insults dwell side by side with blue lights, laughter and song. What is a night in jail anyway? The ladies are full citizens now and were "full" citizens Saturday night also.
I know you know the fat lady who has a distinct liking for short, thin men. Oh, you must know her, because her first husband was only four feet nine inches and weighed only 99 pounds, against her 300 pounds. Well she sent another man to the hospital Sunday. A jerky street car dumped her in his lap and remained there, not feeling any object beneath her. Small men are warned against this lady while riding in the street cars.
I know you know those gentlemen who go joy riding out in the country and regularly have a breakdown out on the most lonely stretch of road. Well, tell them most of the girls now have their number and will carry a monkey wrench and hammer along with them. At least the little lady on Wabash Avenue will be fully prepared for her next trip.
Oh you must know that handsome and gay gentleman who is now limping about the city and has his left hand bandaged all up. Well, you needn't believe that yarn he's telling because Nosey saw him when he received his injuries. Merely another case of "flying down the steps." He got a good start—it was given him free of charge. The "landing" is the thing which "balled him all up."
I know you know that hat shop on Indiana Avenue. Oh you must know that beautiful little place. Well, tell them they ought to try and close their shop before 12:30, or the unions will get in behind them, unless they live on the premises.
I know you know that grass widow who is cutting up so in high society now. Oh, you must know her, because all of the ladies are complaining that she is interfering with their husbands. Well, tell her that her last victim talks a whole lot and before long ALL of her activities will be common property and then she will surely have to leave Chicago or live in exile.
You must know newly married lady who holds her head so high and walks as if on air. You must know her from the way she says "lawst" and "pawst" Well, tell her that she forgot all of that high stuff the other night when she "cussed out" her former sweetheart under the "L," over a little money transaction of a very recent date. How the "mighty" do fall sometimes. Then the "L." alley is different from a ball room.
Cut by Flying Glass.
John Porter, 22, 2244 N. Maplewood Ave. was cut on the head by flying glass when a 43rd St. car was struck May 31 at 43rd St. and Langley Ave. by an automobile.
Throat Cut From Ear to Ear.
Sam High, 2621 State St., had his throat cut from ear to ear June 4 at 2621 State St. by Marion Alexander, with whom he was quarreling.
Reginald Hardin gave a stag for his brother Bobbie Hardin, Jr., Saturday night at their residence. Bobbie hardin gave of settling down and getting married.
Among the many pretty booths at the Dramatic Festival, running this week at the Eighth Regiment Arnory none has attracted the crowds as has that of the Douglass National Bank. This booth is distinctive, in that its sign portrays the history of the Colored citizenry from slavery to the present time; on the left of the sign appears a picture of the Sainted Frederick Douglass, "typifying physical Freedom," in the center Booker T. Washington representing "Industrial Freedom" and on the right a portrait of P. W. Chavers, president of the Bank showing "Economic Freedom," the three great steps in the upward development of the race.
On the opening date and each succeeding day since, the interest around the booth has been so great as to necessitate the services of three representatives of the bank. Mrs. Mary Bryon Clarke, is in charge of the booth.
Mrs. Eddie Holkins, 3824 Rhodes Ave, was injured slightly June 7, when she was struck by a Ford automobile driving a surface car at 39th and State Sts.

BRIEF
Women's Amateur Minstrel Big Success.
The seventh annual appearance of the Women's Amateur Minstrel in the "Foodies" for the benefit of Provident Hospital was given Wednesday evening June 1 at Aryan Grotto Temple, Eighth and Wabash Ave. Every seat in the house was sold a week before the show and it was this time as a financial success. It was also a big artistic and social success for the show was excellent and society was out in large numbers. Many beautiful evening gowns were worn by the ladies who sat in boxes and in the orchestra circle. Mrs. George Cleveland Hall, president and business manager was interlocutor and to whom much of the success of the show can be attributed. She was ably assisted by Mrs. Mable Washington, Mrs. James Francis Lawson, Mrs. Theodore Jones, Mrs. Maude Lawrence, Mrs. Dollie Jennings, Mrs. Jessie Jones, Miss Essie Arnold and Mrs. Binga Dismond. The orchestra under the direction of Charles Elgar with the direction of Charles Elgar at the piano. The hit of the show was undoubtedly Mrs. Daisy Sampson, end man. Were she in the show business she would be drawing an easy salary of $2,000 per week. Her jokes, "air tight" were put over the jokes, a thunder burst of applause. The fine "American hand" of Mrs. Hazel Thompson Davis was seen in all the dancing which was under her in the Little Louise Weller, the dancing girl Goosey. Miss Ion Harris, imitating "Mayne Smith" is a very clever and the name encore a dizziness three others on the program of admirably well known the Misses Shoercraft, Egleston lawson the Dixon, Weile, Triggs, Lawson Smith, Cole, Mrs. Ole, Miss Miers and Curry, Medesani Jones and Allen, Misses McDowell, and Nelson, Misses Harrison, Lewis and Speed, Miss Graham, Mrs. Pews, Mrs. Olden Misses Hall, Hardin, Smith, Mrs. Sheocharct, Miss Reynolds, Miss Goodall, Miss Grayson and McDowell, Mrs. Green, Mrs. Gucaya, Grace Anderson, Miss Curry and others. Marion Harrison was another big feature on the program, her dancing being one of the "wonders" of the evening. The costuming by Mrs. Reynolds was praiseworthy. The Women's Amateur Minstrel has become an institution in Chicago. Those who took part and helped in any way deserve our hearty congratulations.

At Olivet Baptist Church
In short the same line of reasoning was taken up and further expounded by the Pastor at 31st and South Park in the evening. L. K. Williams brought out some points that caused even the "near" politicians to set up a committee of the public that proved before the public that they preferred principle and purity to pledge and party when the latter was a blind proposition.

The Olivet Baptist Church
Rev. L. K. Williams, D.D., Minister
A large number of members observed the Lord's Supper last Sunday at the close of the morning in the evening on: "The Tulsa Race Riot." He said in part that the daily press reported that the cause of the outbreak was the same as the cause of the race, two years ago, namely corrupt politics but that is not sufficient, the chief causes of racial conflicts is race hatred, the white man's antiquated conception of the Negro as his inhuman rights as American citizens, and the fighting spirit which we have received as a heritage from the war of this abnormous psychology. The gottesang hope for a friendly relationship between the races. The Negro is ready to believe in the man as soon as a white man is willing to accept the Negro as every respect. The remedy for racial outbreaks is a rigid enforcement of the principles of Jesus Christ and the principles of Jesus Christ addressed a large audience Monday evening on "The Negro's Part in the New Adjustment." Special services next Sunday. All well

PROF. ELGAR MAKES STATE-
MENT.
In last week's issue there was an
article published under the heading of
Musicians’ Notes, concerning the clos-
ing of Harnion’s Dreamland, In the
first place Harmon's Dreamland has
always closed on May 30th and the
management had partially decided for
experimental purposes to remain open
until July Ist; but owing to the warm
weather it was found to be very im-
practical, hence the closing.
Concerning the work at the Pier,
the contract was offered to Elgar's
orchestra for eight men only, but as
it was considered to be unwise to split
the band, inasmuch as the band was
offered a contract to go on a tour
which will probably be accepted, hence
the contract to go on the Pier with
cight men was refused.
For, the information of onr friends
wwe will re-open at Harmon's Dream-
land on July Ist. It is to be de-
plored that false information was al-
lowed to be given out.

C. I. Taylor comes here Saturday
and Sunday and other days, and he
brings with him a new and rejuvenated
collection of players, that from recent
reports, are going to make the Foster
crowd extend themselves to the full
limit in order to maintain the winning
streak that has fallen to their lot re-
cently at the expense of other teams.
Aside from Brother Ben Taylor,
who is field leader and first baseman,
General Taylor has a complete new
team of regulars, Jefferies and Dicta
Johnson are the only ones of the old
A. B. C's that are left, and those two
are pitchers, and mighty good ones.
C. I has so many mew and high class
pitching men that it is difficult at this
time to name the man who will do the
heaving in the first game, or even the
Sunday contest; but no matter which
one of his pitching selections adorns
the slab, Schorling park fans are ia for
a great aiternoon’s work.
‘The A's haye tackled all the tough
foe found in the western circuit of the
league, and the records show them
none the worse for wear. Taylor is
said to be carrying the best collection
of pitchers assembled upon any one
team in the country, and these pitchers
are supported by an infield that. is
second to none, with an outfield that
carries a mighty panel at bat and
frames an airtight defense
| The American Giants, for the first
|time this season, will meet a team
jthat plays a game much after their
own fashion, and when an aggregation
carries Foster's own copyrighted goods
to the men under his charge, there is
at all times an amount of uncertainty
las to whether hig men will stay on
‘their pins and stick to their guns; and
those are points in play that make for
‘good baseball, andthe new Hoosier
team according to. incoming reports,
[gre just the aggregation to, give, th
fans what they have for a long time
Hooked for; a bunch that plays the
pees Giants style of baseball, and
does it with the exactness and preci-
sion symbolical of the local team. Tha
is a true line on the,A, B. C's that wil
he geen in the seriéf of gatties opening
here next Saturday.

INFIELDER, RIGGINS
Of all the new recruits devel-
oped by the Major Colored
League, none have shown bet-
ter form than short-stop Rig-
gins. He is a flashy handler of
difficult rolling grounders, a
slashing hitter and possesses
one of the greatest throwing
arms in baseball. Riggins, like
many of the great bail players,
is a coal miner by trade and
hales from southern Illinois.

Columbus Buckeyes tabbed up a

4 to 0.
DETROIT, Mich, June 6,—Bert’
Gatewood was the stage, scenery, a
leading man, n'everything at Mack
park Monday aiternoon, He did not
allow the Cuban Stars a hit, slapped
out a homer with a comrade on the
paths, and drove in another ran with
a single, Detroit Stars kicked the Is-
landers, 4 to 0.
Only 29 men faced Gatewood. The
two who did progress beyond home
plate did so on passes and their ad-
vance ended at the initial corner. Ten
Cubans spanked the wind three times.
Resides Gatewood's performance,
Drake staged a thrilling catch of a
tong foul, Now the series stands two
and one in favor of the Stars.

“ADVERTISING RATES ON APPLICATION
wi DUE REGARD FOR RIGHT, WITH PURITY OF MO-
TIVE IN OUR EXPRESSION, WITH CONSCIENTIOUS
COMPASSION FOR STRICKEN HUMANITY, WITH UN-
STINTED CREDIT TO THOSE WHO MERIT, WITH TRUTH AS
OUR GUIDE POST AND LOVE AS OUR INSPIRATION, WE
HAVE COMMITTED OURSELVES TO THE WORLD OF JOUR.
NALISM. WE HAVE DEDICATED OURSELVES TO PUBLIC
SERVICE.
The Benefits of Americanism.
Impassioned hatred, disrespect for American laws, trusting in
impunity and immunity as usual, the reassuring confidence of power
and the whiphand—thus the residential section of Tulsa, Oklahoma’s
black citizens lies smouldering in ruins and only charred remains of
wealth and human bones bear testimony of what once was there.
The tragedy of Tulsa will be recorded as a race riot and the
truth will be distorted to suit the morbid blood-lust of America.
Yet every attempt that the black man has made to defend his life,
honor or property which has resulted in race friction, has been so
termed. Any disorder between whites and blacks is accommoda-|
tively styled a “riot.” Yet no riot proper was staged at Tulsa, It
was a massacre, like unto that of Saint Bartholomew and East Saint
Louis. The strong crushed the weak. Fire, hot lead, bursting
bombs, carnage and pillage.
‘When the “undue familiarity” of a white girl with a black
man leaked out in Tulsa, the black man was accused of assaulting
her and immediately thrown in jail. The ‘battle cry of Dixie” was
forthwith raised and “Lynch him, Lynch him,” was heard all over’
the town. A handful of black men with rifles marched to the jail
seeking to protect the life of their unfortunate rere prevent
Phen the : began, not with sticks and stones, but with rifles,
automatics and shot guns. The handful’ of black men held their
own during the fitful night even as Leonidas held his at the pass of
Thermopale and the scream of piercing bullets could be heard telling
the death dealing story of their fight.
When morning came and the tragic news had been flashed to
nearby towns thousands and thousands of blood-thirsty whites came
pouring into Tulsa and like an avalanche they crushed the black
people of Tulsa into desolation and ruin. The black men made no
attacks upon the lives of women and children neither did they seck
to destroy the property of the white citizens but with frothing mouths
and blood-shot eyes the—white Oklahomans—burned homes and
spared not the aged and decrepit nor even the nursing babies at their
mothers’ breasts and the stench of their scorching, blistering flesh
fills the nostrils of civilization.
They claim as they usually do that agitators of black skin pre-
cipitated the trouble, yet reverse the equation and imagine a handful
of white citizens protecting one of their own from being lynched.
Would anyone have the temerity to call them radicals and agitators?
Every stand which depicts manhood and courage which the black
man makes is styled ‘‘radicalism” and Americans have stretched
that term into meaning “anarchism.”
No defense will be made in behalf of wilful trouble makers
and those who seek to destroy the government. No justification
will be tolerated for those who burn property and destroy life.
The black man is always on the defensive both in times of war
and times of peace. He is humble to a fault and a faint and feeble
burst of manhood does not deserve the benefits of Americanism
which he receives.
Americanism! Is that the vile and bloody thing that paraded
in Washington, in Omaha, in Chicago, in Springfield and in Tulsa?
Americanism! Is that the hideous creature who masquerades in
skull and bones calling himself the Ku Klux? Americanism! Is that
the thing which Jim Crows and taxes and then will not allow the
taxed representation? Americanism! Is that the thing which
lynches, burns and murders the weak? If so, then give us Lords
and Kings with guillotines and dungeons.
Tulsa’s way is not the human way. It is the American way
which honor, valor, virtue and civilization must change.
Do You Object.
Chicago, the garden spot of America, or it is so thought
of by the black people at any rate presents an excellent ex-
ample of what the people desire. In their chosen district com-
monly called the second ward, no public library is found which
is easily available to their use, no free infant welfare station,
no milk stations, no clean alleys or well kept streets and yet
they seem satisfied.
There are found houses for immoral purposes, gambling
dens and dives, vagrants who live off of their wits and all
such influences which seek to disintegrate the altruistic in-
fluence of the church. These conditions exist because the peo-
ple tolerate them. If we are tired of vice, filth and ignorance
it is time to express ourselves. Let us no longer support poli-
ticians who make these conditions possible. Let us line up with
law and order and men who will destroy the vice and give us
a decent place to live in, :

THE TULSA RIOT
“No army of invading savages, modern or ancient, civilized or barbarian,
ever wreaked a more brutal outrage on a helpless civilian population than did
the Huns of Tulsa on thousands of their unoffending fellow-townsmen.”—
Omaha Morning World-Herald,
“The Lesson of Tulsa” ~
"The trouble at Tulsa was not the black man nof the white man, The
trouble at Tulsa, the trouble in Chicago and SpringSi#a and wherever else
race riots have broken forth, is nothing more than corrupt politics.
Among white and colored are criminal men and women. ‘They live with-
out the law and they are material for the uses of corrupt politics. They prey
‘upon decent white and decent colored people, and the unscrupulous politician
employs them for his own purposes.”—Chicago Tribune,
“Oklahoma's Civil War”
“A great change has come over'the American Negro’s attitude toward the
white man's government during the last four years, a ehange for which the
war was largely responsible, The Negro was conscripted like any other
citizen, He was put into a uniform, given a rifle and sent to France to fight
for his country, He was good enough to die for the flag, and naturally he
refuses longer to believe that he is not entitled to priviteges and immunities
for which the flag stands, He is no longer submissive; but aggressive, and
while this change has its grave dangers to the Negro himself, it is an inevit
able consequence of the failure of local and State Goyergpents to administer
even-handed justice,
“Lincoln said that this Government could not endure half slave and half
free, It cannot endure with one law for the white man and another law for
the black man. There must be one law for both, and until there is one Inw
for both every community of mixed population is living under the shadow of
threatened anarchy.”—New York World,
“The Reproach of America”
“The worst result was not the destruction of life and property, but the
blow at law and order and the inflaming of race hatred. The spirit of race
hatred, lawlessness and blood lust has possibilities of destruction which far
exceed the deeds of incendiarism and murder that marked the Tulsa riot. It
threatens the worst of wars, the overthrow of law and order and the destruc
tion of civilization itself."—St, Louis Post-Dispatch,
Courier-Journal Sees No Hope
“Very seriously may be asked the question: Is thefe soon to be a solu
tion of the problem presented by incidents in Americanslife like that at Tulsa?
Grover Cleveland saw things as they are. He had courage of high order
—the courage that refuses to blink a fact.
“I think I see the solution of almost every problem that confronts our
people,’ said this bravely sincere man a few years before his death ‘Plutoc
racy will be checked. Warfare between capital and labor will/gease. Other
questions will be discussed, compromised and ‘Spttled,- But there is one
problem in American life for which I foresee no solution, [t is the race
problem—the Negro question.” _*
Cleveland's words may secm to be unduly pessimiigtie,” But are they so
Has real progress been made, since Cleveland spoke these words, in solving
the problem he had ih mind? .
East St. Louis, Springfield, Elaine, Chicago, Tulsa—are not all these in
one direet line? Do these incidents indicate progress? Is the evil illustrated
by them deereasing?—Louisville, CouriersJournal.

| Errors and Coils,
President Harding makes a general appeal to the nation at
large to aid the victims of the Pueblo flood. Evidently he is unaware
of the suffering and desolation of the Tulsa victims. Maybe he
‘is, but to him what does the suffering of black folk mean. American-
ism does not operate that way, neither does Lilly-White Repub-|
licanism of which President Harding is both an exponent and |
co-efficient. Remember the admonition of the Editor upon his
emanation: ‘Remember the Ides of March.
In Chicago it is remarkable to observe how the people are loath
to desert a fallen idol. Mayor Thompson who has been placed
in the balance and found wanting was placed in office because of
their support. At the springtime election almost every ward in
the city followed him but having failed to make good his promises
and pronounced increase of crime and lawlessness caused every one
to desert him with the exception of the black people. Does it
mean that they are lacking in intelligence? Does it mean that every-|
one else is wrong and the Mayor is right? or does it mean that the
black people have sold themselves body and soul? |
The New York News states that President Harding is proceeding
‘on the courageous and just policy of the late Theodore Roosevelt.
For example, they cite the appointment of Perry Howard. Roose-
velt did not cater to Lilly-White Republicans, neither was he a strong
exponent of Justice and Equality for the black man. Of course we
must bear with those who are satisfied with the half loaf but in the
appointment of Perry Howard, an old line Uncle Tom politician,
they have been deprived of the half loaf. It was Mr. Howard
who sent a dancing master to California to lecture to black vot-
ers and have them vote for Harding. Please someone tell us
what has Mr. Howard done to merit honor and a fat salary?
In Montgomery, Ala., the former house of Jefferson Davis,
which is styled the cradle of the confederacy, has been dedicated to
the state of Alabama. Senator Pat Harrison, of Mississippi, was the
orator of the day and graphically did he recall the lost cause. He
was cheered to the echo, the red cross was in attendance and every
lodge in the city bowed to the White House of the Confederacy.
The government tolerates this and it will not be long before the
German people in America can celebrate their yictories in the
late World war. mie:
