Virgin Islands Delegation Coming to the United States to Urge That Civil Government be Granted St. Thomas, W. I.,—A delegation from these, the Virgin Islands, will leave shortly for Washington, D. C. U. S. A. to appear before the Senate and the House of Representatives there in bonaffice of the McClean bill granting these islands a permanent form of civil government. The delegation; consisting of Arthur Bryan, Halvor Berg, Ralph Bough, and O. C. Granady, were chosen at a conference here, last month, April 19, following mass demonstrations repudiating the resolution of the Joint Colonial Councils against the McClean bill. Popular indignation against the action of the Joint Councils is based on the ground that they represent "an infinitesimal minority of the population, since only $53 out of the 20,000 inhabitants of the Virgin Islands have the right to vote." The St. Croix Tribune, which hitherto the U. S. Navy Department, has joined the movement in favor of a civil government. Mass meetings condemning the Joint Councils resolution and urging Congress to pass the McClean bill have been held in St. Thomas. Frederickksted and Christiansted. Popular sentiment is "overwhelmingly in favor of supplying the present quasi-military government by a more American and democratic form." U. S. Senator McClean's measure provides for a bill of rights similar to the one in force in Porto Rico, and grants American citizenship to native Virgin Islanders in the Islands and in the United States. The bill also provides for a civil form of government recommended by ex-Secretary of the Navy Daniels, which is a simplified version of the Porto Rico government, yet leaves the President's powers similar to those he exercises in the Philippines. A new organic act for the Islands has also been recommended by the U. S. federal commission of the Virgin Islands in its recent report to the U. S. Department of Labor. "HOT FEET" Coming to the Popular Globe Theater, Next Week, is a Company of Star Performers Manager Bob Davis has been singularly fortunate in securing as the attraction for the Globe Theater next week. Jimmie Cooper's sensational Afro-American revue that made such a splendid impression, early last month, at the Columbia Theater, this city. It is one of the livelyest and most fulful combinations of jazz, harmony and "blues" singing seen or heard in many a day. Among the thirty stars in the company are Julian Arthur's ten copators; Bessie De Sota, a dancing marvel from "Plantation Days"; Octavia Sumter, jazzy singer, of "blues"; Reuben Brown, challenge disciple of "strutting," and a host of melodious plantation singers and shuffling dancers. All really GREAT! The show has also assembled a chorus composed of some of the prettiest girls and trained them to work with all the finish of principals. Mr. Cooper has clothed them in a bewildering array of exquisite costumes and they work with speed and enthusiasm. This ensemble of girls can be truthfully described as one of the peppest and best working outfits of the year. Do not miss "HOT FEET" at the Globe, next week. Mid-nite show, Saturday, May 17. WHY NEGROES MIGRATE FROM THE SOUTH Six South Carolina White Brutes Hold for Flogging A Mother—A Southern Daily Newspaper's Account of the Outrage. Charleston, S. C.—Additional evidence for the Northward migration of our people from the South, is offered in the following article, taken from southern newspapers: Six white me not Orangeburg County, S. C., have been held by a local magistrate, according to the Columbia, S. C. State, for flogging Mrs. Alice Thomas, colored woman, on the night of April 5. The story of the flogging, as told by Mrs. Thomas, is as follows: Her husband, Primus Thomas, had gone away in business. She was awakened by someone asking for her husband and upon being told of his absence, the gang of white men broke down her door, and dragged her from her bed. "I had on nothing but a nightgown and Mr. Binnicker said to me, 'You have got to go with us; we are going to whip hell out of you tonight.' They put me in Mr. Binnicker's automobile and they drove off down the road for about a mile and near Mr. Suitcliffe's house, they stopped and I was whipped with a burgy trace. They beat me until I could hardly walk. They were cursing all the time they were whipping me and never stopped until an automobile drove up and I was released and told, 'Go out through the woods; and as I ran I heard some one say, 'Now I guess you will keep your damn mouth shut.' Mr. Binnicker was the one that said this to me as I ran off. I saw and recognized Mr. Binnicker, Mr. Willie-Ford, Mr. Lonnie Garrick, Mr. Whestone, Mr. George Hutto, Mr. Cecil Hutto and Mr. Jim Fogle, but I do not remember of seeing Mr. Bennie Davis, Mr. George Binnicker and Willie Ford are the men who pulled me out of bed and choked me and the others were with them and they were all drinking and cursing. I was bloody from the whipping licks, my nightgown was covered with blood. I have been living in this settlement for three years and am the mother of four children and have never had any trouble with anyone at all, as I have always worked in the field and attended to my own business and I do not know yet what I was whipped about." The story of Mrs. Thomas was corroborated by her son, Marion, and by a statement signed by three local white boys, who witnessed the whipping. ELECUSED.DELEGATE-AT-LARGE! How U. S. Senator Edge of New Jersey and Hoke Donithen of Ohio Differed—Both Coolldge State Leaders. Jersey City, N. J.—On Apr. 22, Dr. George E. Cannon was elected our New Jersey delegate at-large to the Republican National Convention to meet in Cleveland, next June, leading a field of seven, among whom were an ex-governor of the state, one of the state's ex-senators and the present U. S. senator. The results showed that Dr. Cannon was first, Senator Edge second, ex-Governor Slitzer, third, and ex-Senator Frelinghuysen, fourth. This is one of the most signal and decisive triumphs yet achieved by any Afro-American candidate for office. Receiving the highest vote, automatically makes Dr. Cannon chairman of the New Jersey delegation in the convention but he has shown tact in announcing that he will waive the right in favor of U. S. Senator Edge, Coolidge leader in this state, who, unlike Hoke Donilthen in Ohio, saw to it that Dr. Cannon was selected as our candidate for delegate-at-large. This will save this state to the Republican candidates, this fall. Robeson Succeeds Gilpin. New York City.—The Provincetown Playhouse has announced a revival of Eugene O'Neill's notorious play, "The Emperor Jones," on Tuesday, May 6. The part of the Emperor, originally played and made famous by Charles Gilpin, will be played by Paul Robeson, the former Rutgers Yootball star. Mr. Robeson was announced some time ago as leading man of "All God's Chillun Got Wings," with Mary Mary Blair, a white actress; but it is said that Miss Blair's illness has delayed the opening of this play, which was to be the Provincetown Playhouse's fourth bill of the season. In the meantime, the play made famous (?) by Gilpin will be offered as a substitute. Both plays are harmful and not helpful to the race. Local Elks marched to Woodland Ave. Presbyterian church, headed by their band, Sunday afternoon, to hear their annual sermon. They made a very creditable appearance. Likewise, Emmanuel commander, K. T., and several chapters, O. E. S., with its band, the Sunday afternoon previous, at St. John's A. M. E. church. SINGLE COPY FIVE CENTS To Orate Our Springfield Voters Into Line for Coolidge and Other G. O. P. Candidates—The Copenhavers and Their Ally, E. W. B. Curry—Simmons Meeting Overshadowed! Springfield, Ohio.—The apathy of the pre-primary presidential campaign was "broken," last Monday evening, when Roscoe C. Simmons of Chicago, appeared in this city to speak in the interest of the Coolidge candidate. The meeting was arranged by W. E. Copenhaver, chairman of the Republican county committee as he was at the time of the Fulton school controversy. He is also the father of H. C. Copenhaver, one of the members of the school board who supported that contemptible attempt to establish "jim crow" schools in this city. In addition to that Chairman Copenhaver is reported to have said that "Colored people should take what is given them and be satisfied." As a result, the Colored "brother" has not been as ardent and regular in his support of the G. O. P. candidates as formerly. The indifference still continuing, the S. O. S. was sent out and Roscoe Simmons' was sent here to orate the "brother" into line. As if the not offensive enough, the meeting was taken to the Second Baptist church, the home of the "Rev." E. W. B. Curry who is considered the chief of the Negro "jim crowers" hereabouts. Sensing in this an attempt to restore the badly damaged prestige of the "Rev," the C. R. P. league, with the local branch of the N. A. A. C. P., arranged a protest meeting at Trinity A. M. E. church. This meeting was preceded by a parade of about sixty autos led by a brass band which, after parading the principal streets and marching by the church where the Simmons' meeting was being held, repaired to Trinity church where a crowded house heard Prof. Neval H. Thomas, of Washington, D. C., deliver one of his masterful addresses on the rights of the Negro and the necessity of demanding that they be maintained "FIRST SEPARATE BATTALION," Ohio National Guard And Not The Ninth Battalion Anymore—Co. C Organized. Cincinnati, O.—It is the First Separate Battalion, O. N. G., henceforth, and not the "Ninth Battalion," as in years gone by. Co. C the local member of the F. S. B. was organized three weeks ago, has all of its equipment and has been drilling ever since. Its officers are: Capt. Jay W. Wilkins, Lleuces. Elmore S. Willis and Willard S. Townsend. The building, at the corner of 4th and John Sts., has been leased and $5,000 is being raised to put it in order for use of the company. Dr. E. Duval Colley is treasurer of its executive committee. Abyssinian Prince Visits Jerusalem. Jerusalem.—Africa and Asia met in formal splendor several days ago, bringing back the era of 3,000 years ago, when the Queen of Sheba visited King Solomon, with the arrival here of the Crown Prince of Abyssinia, accompanied by a large suite, on a pilgrimage to the Holy Land. In the spectacular procession the Prince, followed by his clergy in magnificent vestments and others of his entourage, all mounted on camels, passed through the streets of Jerusalem on their way to the Holy Sepulchre. Got His Old Zob! Columbus, O.—Wilbur E. King, assistant prosecuting attorney of Franklin county from the time Edward L. Taylor was in the office through the term of Edward C. Turner, some years ago, was again appointed to the position, recently, by Prosecutor John King. He assumed his duties immediately. The appointment was confirmed by Judge Henry L. Scarlet. The program, mentioned in; our last issue, mapped out by the committee in charge, for convention week in June (to entertain delegates, officials and visitors) calls for a band concert, meetings in churches with speakers of national prominence, June 8; a welcome meeting in St. John's A. M. E. church at 8 p. m., June 9; attendance at Keith's Palace theater, June 10; boat ride on the lake in the afternoon, fireworks on the lake front, reception for ladies in the Hawaiian Gardens, and smoker for men at the Caterers' club, in the evening, June 11; Euclid Beach park in the afternoon, reception and ball at Zimmerman's Arcadia in the evening, June 12; tour of the White Co. and Nela Park, June 13 baseball in the afternoon at league park, June 14. IN UNION IS STRENGTH THE COPY FIVE CENTS nted! MOOL ADVOCATES from Chicago In A Effort Voters Into Line for Coolidge Candidates—The Copenhavers W. B. Curry—Simmons vershadowed! at all times. Prof. Thomas, who is a Springfield boy, was here on a visit to his mother who lives at 424 Scott St. On account of the reputation he has made as an orator and an un- Prof. Neval H. Thomas compromising champion for the free and unrestricted rights of the race, he was in demand as a speaker in the short time he was in our city. Arriving Friday evening, he addressed the C. R. P. league on that evening; North St. A. M. E. church, Sunday morning, and, though having intended to return home to Washington on Sunday evening, consented to stay over for the protest meeting of Monday night. Only a comfortably filled church greeted "Col.". Roscoe Simmons who was somewhat late in arriving but who made up for his tardiness by an eloquent but vain plea for the Colored voter to stand by President Coolidge and the G. O. P. A World War Veteran, Out On Parole, Socking Additional Acad- mite Laurels—Already. An Engineer and Chemist. Elmira, N. Y.—Wm. Washington, holder of two college degrees as engineer and chemist, one of the brainstem men ever to serve a term behind the walls of the Elmira reformatory, will seek a third college degree. Reformatory officials here recently received a request from Washington, now on parole, for permission to go from Pittsburgh, where he is employed, to New York City, there to take the entrance examination at New York university, Washington, trained at the Carnegie Institute of Technology and the University of Pittsburgh as an engineer, during his thirteen months enforced stay at the reformatory, decided to prepare himself for the legal profession on his release from the reformatory. During his stay at the reformatory Washington became editor of the Summary, the weekly publication of the "College on the Hill." This unusual prisoner, a young Afro-American of Pittsburgh, who served as a lieutenant in the World War, came to serve his term at the Elmira reformatory when he stepped into a high priced car standing alongside a New York City street curb and drove off. He went as far as Ohio, where he was arrested, taken back to New York and there committed to the reformatory. He was married at the time and had two children. During all of this period of confinement he never wrote to his wife or mother, preferring to have them think that, as they believed, he had gone with an engineering party to South America and had dropped out of their existence. "I'd rather have them think I had forgotten them than to have them know I am here, a prisoner, where the doors of a cell swing behind me each night," he often said. On his release, Washington returned to Pittsburgh, where he had been promised employment. He declared at the time of his parole that he intended returning to his wife and mother, owning up to his disgrace. Many persons who heard Alty. F. B. Ransom's exceptionally able address to the district convention of Mime. C. J. Walker, Mtg. Do. agents, held recently in this city, are still talking about it.

The Senate oil committee, having failed to prove that the leases of Naval Oil Reserves Nos. 1 and 3 were either illegal or against the best interests of the navy will now turn its attention to Naval Reserve No. 2 and the leases therein granted to the Honolulu Oil Company. The Democrats must have an issue, even if they have to ransack every transaction of the Government for the last three years to discover one. --- Why intelligent members of the race persist in invigoring our people to color-line Luna park in order to make money for it, is one of the most harmful things to racial progress in this community that The Gazette finds it difficult to explain. Have they lost ALL self and race respect? Ask them! No person or people have any more respect for us, individually or collectively than we SHOW we are deserving of. --- A lady, living in this city, reports to The Gazette the lynching of a member of the race in the public square of Youngstown, Sunday afternoon, by the Ku Klux Klan. She claims to have witnessed some phases of the affair while driving thru that city in an auto. If she is correct in her statements, there certainly must have been a tremendous effort to suppress the news to be so successful. QUITE CUSTOMARY Senator Wheeler of Montana was indicted on the charge of acting as an attorney in a case against the Government. When Commissioner Spry of the General Land Office, was called before the Borah Committee which is investigating the charge against Wheeler, the Commissioner testified that Wheeler had come to the Land Office to talk with the Government solicitor concerning the Campbell case and was introduced to the Commissioner by the solicitor who said that the Senator was "interested in the Campbell case." According to the Commissioner's story, the Senator said that his interest "was only to the extent of seeing that Campbell got fair treatment and a square deal." There you have it. Did you ever know any attorney anywhere who ever said he wanted anything else but fair treatment and a square deal for his client? Did you ever know any Senator who said he wanted anything else but fair treatment and a square deal for his constituents? Apparently Wheeler conformed to custom. He says he had a distinct understanding that he was to represent Campbell as attorney only in state cases. In the Government case he merely went to the Department and asked that his client be given fair treatment and a square deal. Wonder what he asked for in state cases. --- WOODLAND AVE. MERCHANTS CARNIVAL. Tuesday evening, about two hundred merchants in Woodland Ave met and completed arrangements for the carnival and May sale our readers will see advertised on page 4 of this paper. It is something new to Cleveland and is bound to prove helpful not only to the enterprising gentlemen who are promoting it but to residents of that vicinity particularly, and the entire city. Next Wednesday, Thursday and Friday are the days. On the first two from 6 to 8 p.m., there are to be big auto parades with plenty of band music and other accessories of a wonderful demonstration; free lunches, refreshments, candies, ice cream, sodas, photos, etc., etc. All thru the three days there will be plenty of excitement, pleasure and bargains. The Gazette urges our people, especially those in that section of the city, to enter into the spirit of this unique affair and help to make it a great success and it will surely prove beneficial to all. It would not be a bad idea to make one or more of the days a holiday period for yourself and family. Remember May 14, 15 and 16, next week! --- AGAIN, "SUSPENDED ANIMATION." The Cleveland Call has cahnged hands again, the third or fourth time in the last year or two. This week, a company which it is said consists of Howard Murrell and brother, H. S. Chaucey, J. L. Smith, G. L. Cheatham, Jane E. Hunter and others have taken over the paper from Mr. and Mrs. Wm. F. Jackson, who could not longer bear the burden alone, and established headquarters in the old U. N. I. A. building in Central Ave., east of E. 55th St. Of course you recall what the famous old showman, Phineas T. Barnum, is reported to have said years ago, about one being born every minute. Four "race" papers died in Cleveland, last year, and about twenty now have died in this city since the advent of "The Old Reliable" Gazette, and still this does not seem to convince some people that there is no field in Cleveland for two "race" papers. They simply must have the personal experience that so many have had in the past. Well, they will get it, and "in buckets full," too. That is one thing they may depend upon. THEATER SEGREGATION Mrs. Marie Taylor Brown, president of our City Federation of Women's clubs, has received a letter from E. P. Strong, head of Loew's Ohio theaters, in answer to one she sent him, recently, complaining of the segregation practiced in his local theaters and calling his attention to the penalties for the same. Mr. Strong says his control of the Loew theaters "has no rule regarding the segregation" of our people and that Manager Frank Dae of the Stillman theater advises him (Mr. Strong) "that there must be some misunderstanding inasmuch as tickets are sold down stairs of the Stillman theater" to our people "whenever they want to purchase them." Mr. Strong also gave Mrs. Brown a cordial invitation to call upon him at any time that he could be of assistance to her or the clubs she represents. She writes the editor of The Gazette that she has also placed her correspondence with Mr. Strong in the hands of President Clayborne George, of the local branch of the N. A. A. C. P., and that she feels that it is now "up to him and his organization" to take up the matter with Mr. Strong if there is need of it, as our City Federation of Women's clubs "is not for the express purpose of fighting segregation but, of course, will always be willing to do what it can." Good work, Mrs. Brown. Now Bro. George "get busy." We are convinced that there is much good ground for the complaint so many of our people have made, recently. Even white friends have noticed and spoken of the segregation in some local theaters, particularly the Stillman. "HUMAN NATURE'S FOULEST BLOT." My ear is pained My soul is sick with every day's report Of wrong and outrage, with which the earth is filled. There is no flesh in man's obdurate heart. It does not feel for man: the natural bond Of brotherhood is severed as the flax That falls asunder at the touch of fire. He finds his fellow guilty of a skin Not colored like his own: and having power To enforce the wrong, for such worthy cause. Dooms and devotes him as his lawful prey. Thus man devotes his brother, and destroys: Tis human nature's broadest foulest blot. —Cowper. Hon. Harry C. Smith, editor of the influential Cleveland Gazette, takes notice of our comment relative to the trouble in that state and the treatment of Ohio voters of color. Gauged by what he says, he and his followers have nailed their flag for political recognition to the mast and positively refuse to haul it down or to accept any compromise in the premises. His reply is in the nature of one of those attacks from that noted long range gun that was used during the last days of the World War to shell Paris. In view of our own attitude in this state and our uncompromising stance in dealing with the presidential candidate, we hold a position of witness of this state the time, we cannot consistently afford to take issue with him upon this all-important subject.

The Browns "Trimmed"" THE BROWNS "Trummer": Detroit, Mich.—Amid much pomp and ceremony the National league season opened here, Sunday afternoon, with the Detroit Stars batting the victory of the Browns of Cleveland. The locals pushed the winning run over in the eighth inning. The Browns only made six hits off Alexander but half of the hits were for extra bases. Harris and Miles each got triples, while Hayes hit a home run with nobody on base. Later, when he had a chance to break up the ball game, Hayes fanned. The bases were full at the time.

Gorman Archie Bell, Cleveland Daily News-Leader dramatic critic, is "an old hand at the business" and recognized the country over as one of the best. Therefore, the following from his "pen" is of more than usual interest to our readers: Noble Sissle and Eubie Blake came to the Metropolitan theater a few months ago in "Shuffle Along" and showed producers what musical revues ought to be—and often are not. They are back at the same theater again with a brand new play. And again they are up to their old tricks. "In Bamville" with its two acts and en scenes is up to the standup of the predecessor in every way. Report had reached us to the contrary. A correspondent had said that the revue had been made so elaborate that it had been ruined, at least that its tang had been taken away. Mr. Monroe Mason of Boston, editor of "The Blue Helmet," arrived in the city, last Friday, from New York, and registered at the Statler hotel. He held several conferences with local Coolidge managers, including Mr. Jappe, secretary of the convention committee and with representatives of the committee on arrangements for the entertainment of our delegates and friends. Other convention-week plans were discussed and arrangements made to broadcast them to the many readers of his magazine, and is a monthly. Views of Cleveland and the prominent group-workers will be included in his resume. His unassuming manner and New England breeding made Mr. Mason many warm friends during his brief visit in the city. He left for home, Sunday, but will return to cover the convention proceedings. "The Old Reliable" Gazette wishes him every success in his ventures. Mr. Foster, son-in-law of Mrs. Cynthia Smith of Springfield, a sister of Mrs. J. W. Crawford, recently deceased, was appointed administrator of the Crawford estate, last Saturday morning, displacing Alfred Copes who acted as such ever since the death of Mr. Crawford, who it is said, designated him as such in his will.

It is chiefly composed of the same dancers and singers who "Shuffled Along" for three years. Such indefatigable pep, snap, go and interest in the show is not evident elsewhere. The stars have their "few minutes," as usual. Ivan H. Browning and Lottie Gee have several duets as before. Lew Payton and George W. Cooper have many comical scenes. Charlie Davis is a most talented eccentric dancer. And then there's Josephine Baker, one of the funniest young of the moment on the stage. And it is like having to note that she's a chorus girl. She has been promoted to "principal" in various scenes; but even when she is back in the line the audience is watching her—and applauding her every movement, etc., etc. Crawford, bequeathing her estate to him. This was prevented by Atty. Jas. M. Williams, representing Mrs. Smith, on the ground that one of the relatives, a nephew in Springfield, had not been notified of the intention to probate the same. On Monday, in probate court, Atty. Williams filed suit for his client to contest the will Mr. Copes holds. This will bring on a legal battle which will settle the question as to who will get the Crawford estate—Mr. Cynthia Smith and the nephew in Springfield, Mr. Mrs. Foster live in the East End of this city. He is now in charge of the estate which consists of the property and household goods in E. 31st St. and money in the bank and elsewhere, it is said.

Ohio Afro-Americans Openly Insulted and Humiliated Our Demand for What We Are Clearly Entitled To, a Delegate-at-Large, Ignored—Five “Negroes” Turn Against Our People—Donithen's Statement Columbus, O.—At the Conference of Ohio Afro-American Republicans, held in Garfield hall, Feb. 4, 24, the following resolution was unanimously adopted: Whereas, The Afro-American Republican of the state of Ohio thru the Abraham Lincoln club of Dayton asked for conference with the State Republican Executive Committee and also asked for one of our group to be selected as a delegate at-large to the Republican National Convention which is to convene at Cleveland in June, 1924, both of which requests were denied, therefore be it to any self-respecting human being don't you think? I was standing when he entered and, after introducing myself, Editor Dabney and Rev Webster, I read the following: "Mr. Donithen, we come to you as the representatives of the thinking Negro Republicans, men and women of the state of Ohio, none the less Republican because they dare think for themselves, and in their behaleb we urge you to use your good office to see that we are justly accorded what we are asking for. We recognize Mr. Donithen, that to the victor belongs the spoils, but we do no Resolved, That in view of the fact that the number of Afro-American Republican voters in the state of Ohio is sufficiently large to entitle it to one of the seven delegates-at-large to the Republican Nathan National Convention, and their loyalty to the party is unquestioned, this conference, of Afro-American Republican voters of Ohio, respectfully requests the substitution of a member of our race for Ohio's candidate for as having been recently selected as Ohio's candidates for delegates-at-large to the next Republican National Convention. The following were named as a committee to present the foregoing resolution to Chairman Montgomery of the State Republican Executive Committee and to the Hon. Hoke Donithean, Ohio Coolidge leader, President of Columbia University Tuesday, Feb. 12, 1924, Lincoln's birthday. The committee: Hon. Harry Clay Smith of Cleveland, Rev. I. S. Webster of Toledo, I. S. Beason of Columbus, John C. Logan of Columbus and Dr. L. H. Cox of Columbus, chairman. E. T. Banks of Columbus, chairman; E. T. Banks of Dayton, chairman; Rev. J. E. Baker of Fremont, secretary; Rev. I. S. Webster, treasurer. After the committee was named, the chairman called the office of Mr. Donithen and was informed that the gentleman was out and would not be back until late that evening. He then called the office of the chairman of the state executive committee and was informed that that gentleman had left town, at noon, and would man returned to the conference and related his experiences in trying to make an appointment to deliver the resolution, and announced that he would bend every honorable effort towards making the appointment with Mr. Donithen that the committee might deliver the resolution in person. The reason the member of the committee agreed to the Chairman Cox in Columbus, if possible, on call. A few days later, Mr. Cox called Mr. Donithen over the long distance 'phone and asked an appointment. He stated that the committee could call "any day" and he would see it. To this Mr. Cox replied: "That is too indefinite. Mr. Donithen told me the formation of last Monday when the committee was in Columbus ready to call on you and could not get in touch with you." He then agreed on Tuesday, Feb. 12th. Chairman Cox then notified each member of the committee to meet him in Columbus at 12 o'clock noon, Feb. 12th, and received a reply from Mr. Logan who informed him that coming to the fact that the Lincoln League convention he would not be present but directed Mr. Cox to sign his name to the resolution. The editor of The Gazette, much to his regret, was unable to leave Cleveland, Feb. 12, but wrote that he was heart and soul with the committee and for it to use his name and paper in anyway the committee saw imply the willingness of the Lincoln League convention of five met here at the Y. M. C. A. Mr. Donithen was called on the phone and the meeting with him was arranged for one-thirty. "We were at Donthen's headquarters at one-fifteen, just fifteen minutes ahead of time," said Chairman Cox. "He was out but was 'expected back at any minute.' Well, those fifteen minutes soon passed and it was now one-thirty, the appointed hour, so I could see the outside door and every time the door would open we would think—here he is now—but that door opened and closed several times between one-thirty and three-thirty, without being darkened by the form of Mr. Donthen. For more than two hours, there we sat, smoked and chatted, looked at the door, and chatted some more; only looking towards the door, every time it rattled, to say, 'here he comes now.' Finally, when I could stand it no longer and had risen to go, telling my companions that I had stood the humiliation long enough and that I had stood it that long simply because I felt the making and the sense of the thinking and the measure of my race in the state, and after about two and a half hours' waiting, the long-looked for Mr. Donthen entered and, after seeing another man (white) who had arrived after we did but whom his secretary (Donthen's) explained was a delegate from California and wanted to catch a train, Mr. Donthen came into the room where we were sitting, and I could see ever for keeping us waiting for more than two hours. Rather humilfating to any self-respecting human being, don't you think? I was standing when I entered and then introduced me to Dr. Daniel Daywalt. Rev Webster, I read the follow-up. "Mr. Donithen, we come to you as the representatives of the thinking Negro Republicans, men and women of the state of Ohio, none the less Republican because they dare think for themselves, and in their behalf we urge you to use your good offices of the state to accord what we are asking for. We recognize, Mr. Donithen, that to the view belongs the spolls, but we do not come to you as job-seeking Republicans, willing to barter the just rights of our people for a political job or promise of such job, but we do come fully mindful, of the fact that the year we have labored, side by side, with our race and voted almost solidly for the success of the grand old party, and we believe we are justified in asking, now for some of its honors and that the treatment accorded us be in keeping with our loyalty to the party. I present to you the report (published above) for your careful identification. Mr. Dabney will make a few remarks and then Rey, Webster. BANKS NAMES SIX Now We Know the "Negroes" Whom Doniethen Said They Had Conferred With—Engrave Thekr Names in Your Memory. Dayton, O., March 23, '24. Hon. Harry C. Smith, Editor Gazette, Cleveland, O. My dear Mr. Smith:—information has just come to the Abraham Lincoln Republican club of this city that the Republican "race leaders", who agreed with the Republican State Executive committee in its decision that to have indorsed a Colored person in the Republican National large to the Republican National convention to meet in Cleveland in June of this year, would have been "a fatal step for the party at this particular time," are (named by Mr. Hoke Donithen): Charles Cottrill of Toledo and Attorney Wilbur H. King of Columbus; Prof. W. S. Scarborough and Carl Jenkins of Wilberforce, and Fred D. Patterson of Greenfield. These constitute only a part of those who were seen, they told me these names would have been in your store more this, had we gotten them sooner. Our information also has it that special men were sent out to investigate Editor W. P. Dabney of Cincinnati, Rev. Webster of Toledo, Editor Harry C. Smith of Cleveland, Dr. L. H. Cox of this city and others of our group who were active in the campaign for what we are clearly entitled to—a candidate for delegate-at-large. I am hastening to send you (special invitation) this bit of information knowing of "The Old Desire of Gazette's strong desire for it before now, and it having only reached us at 8:15 o'clock tonight. Trusting, that when we have done our full duty to the race, this fall, the earnest desire of the Colored voters of Ohio will never again be so utterly ignored. I am (for the Abraham Lincoln Republican club). NEGROES FOR COOLIDGE? "No Republican who has the interest of his party at heart need have any fear about the loyalty of the Ohio colored voters in the campaign, this year," said Henry Lincoln Johnson of Georgia, a member of the Republican national committee. He made this statement at the White House: "Ohio has between 275,000 and 280,000 Negro voters, men and women," said Johnson. "There was some disaffection among them, but that is a thing of the past. The Ohio, Ohio, other states where the colored vote is a large factor, are for Calvin Coolidge. They are for him not perfunctory, but with all their hearts and souls and all their sentiment." The foregoing, clipped from the Columbus (O.) Daily Dispatch, a "Coolidge" publication, was sent to us, recently, by one of the leading, thoughtful members of the race living in that city. The following comment accompanied it: "I am sending you a clipping from the Columbus Evening Dispatch. March 10th issue, which will be self explanatory. Mr. Johnson seems to be a teacher who rates others, so-called. When they speak they do not have the interest of the Negro at heart, but only their own selfish advancement." Henry Lincoln Johnson knows absolutely nothing of the attitude of Ohio Afro-Americans toward President Calvin Coolidge's candidacy and shows it plainly by what he says. What is still worse is the evident fact that he had made absolutely no effort to find out what it was and is. "Like most of the other race leaders, so-called," apparently he does not seem to care to know. And this Negro's name is among those signed to the Lincoln League's resolution, sent to Hoke Donithen, Ohio Coolidge leader, on Feb. 12 of this year, "urging the propriety of placing a Colored member on the Ohio delegation-at-large," something Ohio Afro-Americans were and are clearly entitled to! We are very sorry. We thought Johnson a far different sort of man. And his insulting interview was given "at the White House" where doubtless he was begging a job from the President for himself or some one else. LORD, HAVE MERCY! "The Negroes of Ohio and other northern states where the Colored vote is a large factor," have absolutely nothing to thank President Coolidge for, to date, and for Johnson or any one else to say that they "are for Calvin Coolidge, not perfunctorily, but with all their hearts and souls and all their sentiment" is a positively silly statement which it is difficult for us to believe that he or any other sane member of the race could or would make. It is really ridiculous. The Harding-Coolidge administration made the great mass of our people heart-sick with disappointment and chagrin. The Coolidge administration has not changed this condition in the least, up to date, if anything, it has aggravated it with its few insignificant appointments, properly referred to as "the shadow for the substance"; with its studied refusal to wipe out the disgraceful and disgustingly insulting segregation in the governmental departments at Washington, D. C., and elsewhere; and with the Coolidge leaders in the various northern states denying our people their rightful representation in the party's primary elections as they have done in Ohio, Kansas and other northern states. These are only a few of the many good causes of complaint and "disaffection" that will cause thousands of Afro-American voters in "Ohio and other states where the Colored vote is a large factor" to refrain from voting, this fall, if they are not promptly removed by President Coolidge and his state managers. There is precious little Coolidge enthusiasm among the masses of white Republicans throut the country, these Teapot Dome, and none, absolutely none among our people anywhere, and the Republican National Committeeman from Georgia is a mighty dumb politician if he does not know this. And we have yet to meet the person who said Henry Lincoln Johnson was a dumb politician, even tho they may characterize him as a trucking political servant of the big Coolidge leaders, as his "White House" interview, published in the Columbus Dispatch would indicate. IS COOLIDGE A WEAK "SISTER?" The "lily-white" Republicans and Democrats of the South instituted the disgraceful and shameful segregation and other color-line action in the departments at Washington, D. C., and elsewhere in the government service, which the Coolidge administration is continuing in spite of the protests of our people through the land. The same individuals are also showing their power with the Coolidge administration in the outrageous "commutation of sentences" of some of our Houston Texas, soldier-martyr, as announced elsewhere in this paper. In the President's secretary, C. Bassom Slemp, former "lily-white" congressman from Virginia, they have "representative at court" who please them and then has the nerve to try to "soft-soap" our people of the country into liking it. The heart-rending phase of this latter is the fact that apparently he has succeeded in fooling some of the "Negro political-bootlickers," a few of whom publish "race" papers. Lord have mercy! There simply must be a settlement in November, brethren much as we may hate to do it—unless President Coolidge intervenes in his own as well of our behalf His desertion of the Hon. Harry M. Daugherty "in the middle of the stream" is not very encouraging because it leads one to believe that Calvin Coolidge is NOT the strong man his action in that Boston police matter has led the country to believe he is. Is Coolidge a weak sister?" That is the question on thousands of lips, here in Ohio as well as elsewhere in the country, these days. POLITICAL DUMBELLS OR TRAITORS! Now comes the Republican Interstate League of the District of Columbia, "a Coolidge organization," with its protest against "the hand-picking of delegates and alternates to the next Republican National Convention from the nation's capital." It seems the Coolidge leaders there are like those in Ohio, Kansas and other states—have little respect or consideration for "the rank and file" of the members of the party. It looks as if they are determined to defeat President Coolidge, this fall. Whether they are blundering because of a wolf lack of knowledge of politics, or are simply traitors, is the question. The big manager of the Coolidge primary campaigns, through the country, whoever he may be, had better wake up, and soon, too, or it will be too late to stop the mischief being done by the Coolidge state and district leaders. It looks very much, at this time, as if Ohio has been lost already. Hoke Donlthen's insulting mistreatment of the more than 200,000 Ohio Afro-American voters and that most unfortunate attack upon the late President Warren G. Harding, made by Senator Pepper of Pennsylvania in a recent speech "down East," HAVE HURT! There is no question as to that. Donlthen is the President's Ohio leader and the Senator is one of his closest friends and political advisors. Hoke has already hung out the S. O. S. and called upon the Ohio Congressmen to come home and campaign for Coolidge and the party. It's needed, alright, but it will not save the day the way things Coolidge are drifting in this state. Remove the political dumbbells, or traitors, at once. Mr. President, or they will encompass your defeat, this fall, just as sure as there is an election. Northern Republicans, colored and white, will not stand such mistreatment without striking back and you and all others know it.

Now he is sixty. He owns just 15 years of insurance is $6,000 a year—$500 an acre! His four sons and two daughters are graduates of the Kansas State University. Opportunity never knocked at his door. Rogers had to go find his opportunity. He tells here that he is quite unhappy, well as producing to suit his soil brought success.—Editor, "Farm and Flireside." BY RILEY ROGERS Of Lawrence, Kansas. In an Interview With Frank M. Chase. Twelve acres may not seem much of a farm in Kansas, but that much land has done pretty well for me. The cash receipts from it last year were slightly more than $6,000. It has not only supported a large family, and provided for my old age, but has also provided a university education for my six children. For twenty years before coming here I worked for railroads, beginning when fifteen as a messenger boy. During all those years I saved money, nor did it seem that as a railway employee I ever needed an union card. Negroes, however, were ineligible. Consequently I deserved to be told to work myself. I saw a good many vacant lots around Lawrence, and it occurred to me that I could farm them. I went at it. That was twenty-five years ago. What success I have had has been bought with a lot of hard work. I think, however, it is due as much to the attention I have given to selling my produce as to growing it. When I began here besides having no money and very little education, I knew absolutely nothing about truck-gardening. Hoping to get some suggestions, I went to see some of the local men in the business. But from them I got a cold shoulder; they didn't want another man sharing in their trade. They could see their mistakes, however, and I went ahead determined to profit by them and by experience. Now, while I had had very little schooling, a good deal of my railway experience was in offices, and this led me to pay more attention to the business side of gardening than the other fellows were doing. I soon saw, for example, that they Ice Creams, Sodas and Photographs were not catering to their market as they should in order to get the best results. They weren't supplying their customers with the right stuff, in the right quantities, at the right time. As a result, the merchants would buy part of their stuff from out-of-town growers, after which the local gardeners would have difficulty in recovering their trade. My aim is to supply every truck market demands, even if you have some of my products. The return of the sweet corn and cauliflower that I raise, for example, is less than the cost of production. Irish potatoes also give me little profit, though I raise a few for the very early market. But I supply these products because they help me to maintain my trade. I have found that if I can supply all the garden truck a merchant needs he will continue to buy of me, and of nobody else, year after year. Our storage, tomatoes and cucumbers are my main crop. The cabbage is the best money-maker of all, and this is mainly because I get it on the market very early, usually before any is shipped in. Next to cabbage, my most profitable crop is early tomatoes. Practically all of my stuff is sold to the local stores, to which I make daily deliveries. I have never made any effort to develop a retail trade. Probably that could be made if I had the time to devote to it. As I have done so, I have made sure that holidays waiting on people who drive out here for fresh vegetables. The lots on which I began comprise about six acres. For several years I rented the land, and then bought it; the rest of my land, which was purchased later, is a separate building on the original place were poor, but I did not let that fact bother me. I knew that whatever success I had would depend on other things than the quality of the house and barn. About four and one-half acres are watered by an irrigation system. The back of the yard time getting this. With it I can raise two to four crops a year on the same ground. It helps me to have a continuous flow of products to my market. From this land I obtain considerably more than from my other eight acres. Last year its products brought $4,500, or $1,000 an acre. Of all that the little place has done for me and my family, I think I most appreciate the fact that my children have been educated. I have four boys and two girls, and all of them are the University of Kansas. One of the boys is now a practicing physician, while another is a pharmacist. Sumner, the youngest, is working into the business here with me, and will carry on what I have started.—Farm and Fireside, N. Y. City.
