Case of Moorfield Story and Plea and Present Bri Farmers Under Death
Washington, D. C. Jan. 18—Moorfield Story, former president of the American Bar Association and now president of the National Colored People, on Tuesday, January 9th, appeared before the United States Supreme Court to argue appeals in the behalf of the African people condemned to death in connection with the Arkansas riots of 1919.
In the course of the brief appeal against five of the Negroes, sensational charges are made involving the County of the State of Arkansas newspaper; leading citizens; Rotary Club; Robert L. Kitchens Post, American Legion; and other organizations who are charged with having tried to torture but employed to death, tortured but employed to make prisoners falsely testify, mob hysteria dominating their trial which is alleged to have taken place in
The cases arose out of an attempt by "zero farmers to organize and organize the grazing of the land or dek slavery under the share cropping system prevalent in Armenia," according to a brief, "to accord the large number of the men armed with the tools of a "plot to massacre whites" and to accord the brief, "a large number of the men armed with the tools of a "plot to massacre whites" and to accord the trouble and to adjacent regions and began the indiscriminate hunting and killing of Nigreos."
"We have distinct evidence," says the author of the report at that time were in danger of the Nigreos and that two hundred or three hundred men were killed—There can be no doubt that the Nigreos were determined that these men should be convicted, and that they were the purpose; and for the court (Arkansas Supreme Court) to say that they necessarily did not have a fair trial shows clearly that the Sultan should have been self influenced by the same feeling that influenced the leaders of society throughout the region where the Nigreos were involved in the crimes of "than which it is hard to imagine worse." The brief further recites that the conduct of the case against the Sultan was the crimes of "than which it is hard to imagine worse." The H. F. Shipman and T. K. Jones, the former
NEGROES CONTINUE MOVING NORTHWARD.
This Negro had a letter from a relative who went to Detroit in the summer of 1917. He later sent back to Misselissppi for his wife and children. He was now being paid $5 a day at an industrial plant, had saved his money and was living in a steamheated house. His two children were going to good schools and were becoming educated. This Negro claimed another man he knew was making $7 a day in Chicago and his living expenses were less than on the plantation he had left.
These Negroes are not only moving their families, but most of them have shipped their household goods. Reports from the railroads show many have gone north with provisions enough to last them several months. These were Negroes who
deputy sheriff of Phillips County, Arkansas, the latest special agent for the Missouri Pacific Railroad, both white, who were members of the sheriff's posse and swore that the white men, for whose murder the Negroes were convicted, was killed by members of the posse, and the black men who had not been谋杀 with the murder. They further swore that they personally whipped the prisoners with straps studded with metal, put strangling drugs in their nostrils and forced the Negroes to sit in an electric hair to force them in the manner desired by the mob.
The summary of the conditions under which the Arkansas trials were conducted is as follows in the brief:
“We have the whole community inflamed against the defendants, prepared themselves to lynch them, only refraining from so doing because they have not been noticed by hearing the citizens that the trial should accomplish the same purposes, a condition of things where no man who was on that jury and had ventured to vote for acquittal or delay could have lived in Phillips County, except that the men who had been convicted of the men who engaged in the business of manufacturing evidence for the State. We have false statements printed in the newspapers; we have society substantially organized to convict these people; more than 1,000 were convicted of the同时ly terror and forced in pain of death or torture to give false testimony. We have the testimony of the witnesses themselves that they were so terrorized and that their testimony was false. We have the testimony of the men who inflicted the same [or the same] violence which shows, if evidence can show anything, that the defendants never had a fair trial and in fact that they are innocent. As to some of them there is no evidence as to whether the men were in the course of the they were with a gang of Negroes assembled to all purposes for self defense.”
Among the organizations named as foaming the state of feeling in which the Negroes were convicted of treason, the African American Legion, the Helena Rotary Club, Llana Club of Helena, and the Committee of Seven appointed at the time of the riots by the Gov. (Continued on Page 3.)

SCIENTISTS GO RAT HUNTING AT EGYPTIAN TOMB.
(BY A. N. P.)
Luxor, Egypt, Jan. 18 — It was a dull week-end outside of Tukan-kamon's hambar, as nothing has been known since the discovery of the tomb of Seti II, was taken to the tomb of Seti II, of Egypts ancient Ethiopian kingdom, exciting enough with the discovery that a huge rat had taken up his place in the tomb. The intention of making a banquet of the most luscious and priceless objects stored there. A general rat was found, and now a trap has been set and all a hopping for the best. The rat is trapped, tragedy if some of the objects after being most expensively and most carefully treated were knawed to pieces.
New Orleans, La., Jan. 18. — (Crusader Service) Dr. J. H. Eason preacher and former high official of the invisible Garvey Empire, the founder of the Black Wounds received Friday from bullocks wounds received was leaving a meeting Monday night in a church where he had denounced the violence against the Negro Race and revealed the secret vicious workings of the Garvey crowd. Persons who attended the meeting were shot to death shots that killed Dr. Eason. The victim identified Dreyer and Shakeney as his accomplices and police took his last words to be used in a statement against them when they are arrested. Dr. Eason told the police, just before his death, the attack was the second on his life since October 2015.
Shumate not only refused Saturday to give a reason for the spiriting of the three charged people out of Waco, but declared they were not a “guarantee of the police.” This was the first officials feared the institution of injunction proceedings in their behalf in McLennan county before they had finished their search into the mysteries surrounding Skip-water.
Horace Boucher and Bernard Boucher are being kept in the death cell here and every precaution is being taken in guarding them. Miss Boucher is in a cell, some distance apart from the other women prison-kings.
Grady Skipworth, the murdered man, was thrown over a bluff 100 feet high, after he was killed by a discharge from a shotgun. Miss Boucher declared that a Negro killed a man in the same position after an assault on her.
Officials in the district attorney's office Saturday night said that inasmuch as the prisoners had been placed in the Dallas County Jail by the police, the police and the police officer, papers in beauses corpus proceedings would have to be served on Shumate before they could be taken from the Jail.
Sheriff Harston, it was said, has not been a murderer there until service is had on Shumate.
Shumate is understood to have left the city Saturday morning and his whereabouts were not known Saturday night.

ROBESON, FOOTBALL STAR,
QUITS LAW FOR PRIZE RING
New York City, N. Y., Jan. 18. — The same grit and stering of character which established one of the league's most formidable league football have impelled Paul Robeson to quit an unprofitable law firm. "Law doesn't pay so I am going into fit myself to lick Harry Wills and then knock Jack Dempsey out of the competition blacker than Harry's shadow." Paul Robeson, Colorado football star, at Rutgers University, you see and all-American end in 1918 intends to follow the latter course, but Rutgers drives you out of competition, but every day in every way business is getting worse and worse. The clients simply won't come. And the necessity of clients is easily seen. So the big Colored star, who was a former Rutgers football feet, B inches in his stocking feet, intends to enter the ring within the near future to establish a weight contender. Harry Wills and Jack Dempsey are the men "Robey" to slightest doubt as to his ability to tame the black panther and the artful dodging white champion.

TEACHERS WIN IN COURT
Springfield, O. Jan. 18.—With the acquittal of Waldo Bailey of a charge of rioting in connection with the right on Jim crow schools here, and the nole pressing of similar charges against thirty other accused City Manager Parsons by the City Commission, the people of the city have been accused of civil tortious history in the history of the race. The dismissal of City Manager Parsons as a city council member of the teclective League waged against him.

In the general fight that followed the teachers and principal, as well as several policemen, were beaten. Over thirty Colored people were arrested but let out on ball. The defense while admitting that Bailey jumped on the car, denied that it was with any attempt at assault. On the first that acquitted Bailey were three Colored men and nine white men. The jury was out only thirty minutes. So bitter has the Colored women who consented to teach in the film crowd Pulton School and against the principal, Prof. Bullocke-of Knoxville College, that the homes of Springfield have been practically closed to them. Wherever they have appeared in public they have been ridiculed and

It is a plain, every day, unpleasant, conservative newspaper, paper, or magazine, wearing breezes file its doubtful flag: [It] appears in a patriotism on a brood a. w. country. Its love of activity and justice caowers all the terribly accepted by the human race. This is pretty high ground, but we live on it and are preoccupied with it and stand with us. This ground is holy.
THRIFT WEEK

Some of us have defied back into the world and have learned with no particular thought of the days that be ahead. To fail to keep up with the changes in human than it is necessary that as often as a consciousness of a lapse in felt we arrive again for higher levels.

Thrifty people buy homes rather than pay rent. They buy homes before they buy automobiles in which they have their pleasure or diamonds and slips with which to bedekeep. Thrifty people want bank accounts rather than a display greater than their home. Bank accounts, freedom, comfort, want surplus for investment—all of these things are possible to the thrifty person. They can spend a little less than he earns. Week will soon be useless. Those who would live wisely and well should study the reasons for its existence and adopt them as a means of reaching that end.

THE DALLAS EXPRESS, DALLAS, TEXAS, SATURDAY, JANUARY 20, 1923
THE MIGRATION of Negroes of Southern States to the North is assuming alarming proportions if dispatches from Mississippi, Louisiana and Tennessee are to be credited. From one to twelve thousand a month is the estimated number of those who are selling out and taking their families to northern and eastern points.
In this second migration there can be no charge of unrest due to war wages. Nor, in the face of the fact that the majority of those who left during the warme movement have not returned, can it be hoped that they will return in as large numbers as they are leaving. They are going to stay.
The limiting of immigration is making a huge market for unskilled labor in the large industrial centers and these people are going in to fill that market.
In their going there is direct refutation of the age old claim that the Negro loves the South; that he thrives on poor schools, poignage, discrimination, lynching and general mistreatment. This has never been true but heretofore circumstances have seemed to render it more profitable for the Negro to endure these things in the hope that such a day as now would dawn in which he could leave with the hope of quitting for good the conditions which he has always hated. This is not a trait in Negro psychology enables him to grin and laugh under persecution. This has ever been his salvation. Semingly it has been taken by his neighbors for a sign of contentment and acquiescence with the fare upon which he has been forced to subsist. But now that that fare is no longer inescapable he is showing just how thoroughly he has detested it. The South is an agricultural region. From its inception until now its greatest labor supply has been the Negro. But with few exceptions the large land owners have carried over civil War days the traditions they have created their Negro children are lynchened them; they have made concubines of their daughters and refused their children a decent education through more than fifty years. Some have claimed that the Negro knew no better that what he had never had he could never miss; but this second migration should wake them up to the fact that the Negro has always been conscious of his injustices. Even in slavery though the check mammy to her trust, it was the slave who planted and planted them in the past for better things. Her sons freed in body but still enslaved have labored under lynching and rapine and peonage honoring for a change and now they seem to see it.
There is no voice in all the Southland strong enough to stay this movement now. These people cannot believe in the light of their treatment in the past, that they can find justice and freedom here. They are going as long as they can find work to do. Some of them may freeze. Some of them may starve. They may use the institute to play in which it has been before but these places to which they go cannot become any worse than those from which they come.
Their labor will be missed. If the migration continues the production of some Southern states will fall far below par. Planters and land owners will see darker days than they have ever seen before but they can blame such a condition upon nothing but a long devotion to the belief that because a man is black has no rights that others are bound to respect in the land of "thread cast upon the waters"; the reaping of what has been sowed; the product of the "Mills of the Gods" which "grind slow but "exceeding fine."
LAST WEEK stated that Dr. J. W. Eason, former Garvey leader but now an active enemy of the war, was shot in the back by fanatical members of the association and since is reported to have died of his injuries.
It is not hard in the light of the desperate doings of other of the followers of this movement in various places to reason that there must be something of violence and mobbing in the doorway of the church to be addressed to them. It is not impatient that hate is made to play a strong part in the urging of them to follow this movement. Certainly such reasoning is borne out by the preachments of Garvey himself and the bitterness which constantly crops out in his impassioned speeches and editorials.
More than seldom have we been forced almost agast at the blind fanaticism with which his followers do his bidding. And now this last occurrence is the last straw, whatever respect we may have had for the course which he and his followers have made in the church in the constant reaction that his exhortation to the use of force against his enemies is highly dangerous and detrimental to the peace and prosperity of the race at large.
Those men arrested for the shooting are reported to have declared that "Eason had it coming to him; he was an enemy to the cause."
Such doings smack strongly of the Russian Bolshevist, the Labor terrorist or the better known mobster who would utterly destroy that which he finds out of sympathy with him and his
If such have been the teachings of Garvey, they are wrong. If he thus hopes to build up a racial solidarity he is much mistaken. Terrorism, murder arson and rapine do not belong within the confines of a group which is striving to dedicate itself to orderly progress and financial expansion. Terrorism has feel that it stipulating this murderous assault upon a man whose greatest crime had been the active opposition to the movement with which his murders were allied in exaggerating the effect of the past it has upon them. If in the past it has provoked them to stone other speakers against their movement; if in the past it has forced men to seek police protection against his infuriated followers certainly it requires no stretch of the imagination to see that murder might as soon enter their minds as heckling of stowing. We have been hard enough for the movement to overcome; but the existence of a murderous spirit among his followers we feel should be sufficient to utter condemn it. We hold no brief for murderers and those who strike their enemies in the back. Now we have anything that the utmost contempt for one who by ill advised appeals to force creates in the minds of his followers desire or bloodhed—especially upon members of their own group. We feel that Garvey has done this. In so far as this doctrine are responsible for this outrage we denounce them as dangerous.
It seems to us that we want the whole hog or none. Our guess is that she will come very near to getting none.
Negroes formerly sang "gettin' more like the v white folks every day." Seems now that the tables are turned. Negroes hard- ever agree. Neither do white folks—now.
Is the present unrest in America a case of "thieves falling out?
Why lot "Jim Crow" in Harvard? Doesn't cone say "day by day in every way they do it better and better?"
If our white folks keep lynching and killing each other it will soon be impossible for us to declare that "they did it because he was a Negra."
We are accustomed to being lynched for nothing and having our homes burned over our heads but nobody else in America is. Other folks can't laugh as we do Something else is going to happen. May be we won't be in it but we will benefit by it.

DANGEROUS DOCTRINE
DANGEROUS DOCTRINE
THE MIRROR
OF
PUBLIC OPINION
While leaders fight among themselves, the races interest nufers. We thank the Lord that we know of our own knowledge that we are not a race leader, and that nobody accuses us of such. If there is any word in the economy of Negro life overworked, it is the office of race leader. We do not know from where the thousands of leaders of race has produced got their license, or how they got it into their heads.
The Negro race is the only race that has a leader or leaders. You hear of no leaders among the whites of this country or the people of any other country. Neither the Germans, French English, Portuguese nor any other race group or nation have leaders except our people. We have as many leaders among us as we have colors. Other races may have political, financial, labor or religious leaders, but no race leaders. And these leaders among other race groups do not attempt to speak for their race, but for a political industrial or economic school or religious sect.
In America we have first of all the self constituted appointed leader, who claims to speak for the race. Then, the political self-appointees, who walks around with the vote of his group in his pocket and serves only himself. Then comes the white folk, Negro leader, Jews and scraps to the whites and prejudices of the white man, and is rewarded by the one industrial school leader, who prey upon the white public for a livelihood by telling the white man he is educating the Negroes to be good servants. Neither of these groups of self appointed leaders help the race or contribute anything to the solution of everyday problems affecting Negro life.
The following are the groups of leaders which are destroying the solidarity of the race in this country by reason of lights for supremacy among themselves:
First comes the political leader—the little Negro boss who plays to the republican party that "we are the leaders and can control our group." This group camps around Washington, plays the senators and congressmen during the sessions and the public, during vacations. They rank in importance among themselves as named: John C. Perry Howard, and Robert R. Church. Consider themselves the political spokesman of the race through whom all patronage must come and if the political audience does not alike else it is an insult to them.
Then come the race fire brands and agitators, among whom are William Monroe Trottier, W. J. Jernagin and Joe Bibb. This bunch is at variance with every other bunch in the country, and fight-and-criticise everything the other groups do.
Then comes the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, which claims of right the exclusive right to handle all questions of race, and offers of offense if anybody else undertakes to help the race along except through their agony, and positively refuses to work with or co-operate with any other group of race leaders. They style themselves as the classic of race agitators and solvers of problems. If they cannot set a problem, themselves, they would rather it would unsettled for any body else to have anything to do with it.
Then comes the Tuskegee influence, which is selected by the white majority of the county, and the standard of Negro possession of Negro development and capacity to do from the white man's view point. This group takes the credit for every political consideration extended the race by the Harding administration.
Then comes the aristocracy of all the leadership, which undertakes to set the standard high. Among the leaders in this exclusive group are Dr. Emmett J. Scott, W. L. Houston, James A. Cobb and W. H. Lewis. Essentially this group are not politicians and are not looking for anything for themselves; but contribute in a way a help to the foundation among the several groups, and naturally find themselves in the position of someone genuinely finding out of the absolute and significant failure of the other groups to function helpfully for the race.
While these groups set ground among themselves, each complimenting itself because of its mastery of the situation and its special fitness and great ability to handle all racial problems, and criticising the other because of its brazen unfitness, the race's interest goes to the bad in congress; the republican party complies the work of disfranchising in the country by the demeanor of a political opponent, and the group of self-appointed serenade among themselves for office, each with the motto hanging out, "If I can't, you shouldn't." if we cannot put it over, you shall not put it over; if the other gang is to get credit for the Dpr Bill being passed, we would rather see it defeated. We have done much and sacrificed much for the republican party in the race and the sum total of what the groups have done and the sacrifice they have made are summed up as follows. First, we have done the work of recruiting a number of returning members of dollars in shush funds for campaign expenses from candidates at National Conventions quadriannually.
Second, we have made the sacrifice of accepting offices from the republican party at sat salaries for the last quarter of a century.
Third, we have sacrificed ourselves to receive all the party places and political offices in our state to the exclusion of everybody in the party but ourselves for the last quarter of a century.
Fourth, we have taken all the offices for our dear selves and given our constituency nothing, have been silent every time the public lit up put in our mouths, the interests of our constituents and our promises to them nowwithstanding. We have made the sacrifice of taking everything we could and giving nobody anything. We have money all the jobs and all the party when it got to the place where we could not get anything traded the lil white in, in order to boost up our fallen cause. Verily, we have been burdened by accepting everything in reach ourselves and giving nothing to our friends.

CONTEMPORARY THOUGHT.
From the Atlanta Constitution: What is to be done to check the trend toward barbarism among an irresponsible element that is bringing Georgia's name in disgrace throughout the country?
All too frequent have been rachings and the monache of the mob terror.
All too frequent have been the homicide from the ever-ready pistol, carried in violation of law and brought into leedy action at the fancied guides of a whisky-fired mind.
Life has become cheap—far too cheap—in this great State of chivalric traditions and all Am-rican civilization; and the safety and the security of the home guaranteed by law and "protected" by the vigil of enforcement, has become too much of an indifferent theory, laughed at and scorned through a growing disregard by a few for all law, capitalized in a measure by the legal licensing of the traffic in weapons of death.
Newspapers throughout the country are pointing to Georgia as the host of mob violence, and of homicide and of a reckless disregard or law these apprehensions have been exaggerated, but the foundation on them have unquestionably been held, through a too liberal acquiescence in crime; and in the failure of law enforcement, on the part of the people of Georgia.
And now comes one of the blackest and the most brutal crimes in the history of Georgia.
And again the press associations carry out throughout the country and again the newspapers of the North and East and West—indeed of the South, will point to this Empire State as the scene of barbarous atrocity, increased in details.
Here in Screwley County on Saturday night an inoffensive old Negro by the name of Andrew Jones—an ex-slave, who had lived in the home of his birth for seventy years and who was known far and wide as the embodiment of grittiness and politeness—a typical product of the old South who stood with unswerving loyalty to the cause of the Civil War, thus devoting his life to the generosity that followed, always helpful and always faithful—was barbarously murdered by two white men whose names are known, his body cut into slices and thrown into a cuddle of water, and all without the slightest provocation other than the inflamed passions of two whisky-soaked brutes. The old Negro was sick in bed with influenza, and at night he was in bed with a fever from the same source.

Sapuina, Okla., Jan. 18—Peace and quiet reigned here today after a week of tension brought on by the slaying of a white policeman and the wounding of a black man. Colored men. The outbreak started when the officers attempted to arrest Ed. Glass, well-to-do restaurant order and clubman who had congratulated who had congratulated in his place. Barricading themselves in a room adjoining the restaurant, the men sought opinion by advancing with fatal results.
For a time the affair threatened to develop into a serious racial inference. Sixty officers and a large force of duties were organized while residents out the black section. The Colored residents were apprehensive particularly after the firing of four buildings owned by the Colored community started. The residential section is sequestered almost, completely as the Tuina Negro section, and remembering that a connection resulted the Colored people armed and prepared to protect their homes. Cooler heads among the influential white and Colored elements averted what for a time had aspects of a

Two social instincts are standing face to face here in the United States, the Powdery and the one side of the line and polygist of Europeans is standing on the other side. It matters not that a small group of people can make effort to reconcile the concluding forces, there is a Problem conflicting, complex, conjuring. Among the Negro group can not escape the responsibility of the care of the less forward elements. And the group of charitable agencies here and is active in social welfare as well as type of Negro.

his cabin. He responded though too ill to do. Bowed with the natural infirmities of his advanced age, and weakened from the disease that gripped him, he could not remove the car. The brutes became enraged. He was shot through the back of his head, and his body was then sliced to pieces with a knife, and thrown into a pool of steam. The horror of such a crime, so unprovoked, and then help from wonders, if at least some of our people are not drifting into a state of barbarity?
There must be a step to this sort of business. The good name of Georgia demands it. Civilization demands it.
These brutes should be brought to speedy justice, if the Governor has to offer the maximum reward allowed by law to an awe-inspired clien.
And "justice" can only mean the extreme penalty prescribed for murrer.
We wonder Negroes are leaving Georgia by the thousands!
Already in every part of the State statewide, fair and conservative white farmers are organizing to check this flow of labor from the fields where its work is necessary to successful farm operation.
Americans are treating of small element whose outrages are overwhelmingly condensed by public sentiments.
Unless this sentiment crystallizes into something more than expression, and unless it authorizes remedial action, we need not be surprised in the face of such attrocities as that of Andrew Jones' case, if the immigration of Negroes become so largely intensified as to threaten economic peril.
More than that, if an end is not put to this sort of thing, and if a small element of brazen, barbaric brutes can disgrace the State by cold-blooded murder and escape punishment, the State will be (cortimate) confined to the blacks who are leaving, for the menace developing in unwhipped criminals has become such as to threaten whites as well as blacks.

IT HAPPTENS SOMETIMES AMONG
MARRIED FOLKS.
Chicago, Ill., Jan. 18. — It happened at State and Monroe streets, outside the North American Bullpen.
A street hawker was calling his wife. Toys of several varieties were his limo.
"Here's you," grit a barkin' door. "Here's you," sure to amuse, grit a barkin' door.
At this juncture of his exclamation, a happily married Negro couple of 69 were passing the scene.
He was small and desure. They were indulged in a verbal second only to the peace parade. During the entire alteration the hawker was shouting: "Git a funny face."
The husband stopped. He assembled the attitude of a bantam rooose.
"Every Saturday night it's the same thing," he said. "I've got to go to the store. I time I have finished I look like I was moving the house. I'm funny face." interrupted the street salesman.
The better three-quarters stared at a little man. She snorted, then spoke:
"Well, dree's one thing you don't have. The good Lord saved you."

Without his active interest all efforts of ardent friends and generous philanthropist will be in effect.

The orator, who was a Dark Subject" he asserted: "The Negro has been taught to be merely good and good for something. A good man for too long a time. Good nothing and good for something. A positive virtue never redeemed a negative. Further he said, "My race will decide its own position in the American society to tell us rations, to tell us raids, and to the machinations of men, if it may 'know itself in the fullest accupitation' nor the brightness of our raids, but no early power can dim the brilliance of our lustre nor the brightness of our raids."

It was contended in behalf of the Negroes that they had assembled a committee to enforce the Carnegie as tenant farmers to relieve themselves of $f conditions which they asserted amounted to $100,000. The Negroes claimed that white men surrounded the church, and fired upon them, killing a number, and then arrested them. The committee that the Negroes had assembled in connection with a plot to firing the firing was done by a posee sent to quell a plot. Jurisdiction of the Supreme Court to determine the appeals was conducted by the State on the ground that "micro-crime in point of law, in the criminal court in the exercise of its jurisdiction over a case properly subject to its cognizance, cannot be prosecuted."
Numerous questions were asked by the Justice's during presentation of the cases, their inquiries containing chiefly on the issue of jurisdiction. Only two expression came from the bench, however, indicated that the Justice Justice's and Reynolds stated in substance that the arguments presented in behalf of the condemned Negro disclosed. In his opinion, a regrettable condition of affairs, but it seemed that proper action had been taken by their counsel to obtain a review of the cases. Justice Holmes said the situation appeared to be "unfeasible." In such a need the Supreme Court, in the interest of justice, to inquire whether it was not warranted in taking jurisdiction without stopping at technicalities.
Alleged "inhumane" treatment of the prisoners in efforts to obtain confessions from them were dwell upon by Mr. Storey. Assistant Attorney General Godwin, for the State, confirmed his argument largely to the legal phases of the case, in�isting that comset for the Negro had not purned the proper course to obtain a review. The cases, he argued, must be thrown out by the Supreme Court, because not proper by brought before it. Instead of seeking an appeal by habits of the same according to the cases should have been brought up on writs of error, a tactical mistake which, he stated, could not now be corrected.

One of the greatest opportunities for real research is the freeing of the Liberian people from the Mercantile Combine now operating in the country, teaching of Christian principles is hampered by the lack of an economic environment so much heralded and critiqued is only a logical sequence to the development of procedure so often adopted by the untrained or wrongly trained missionary. Christianity is in very
Because of the dependence of Liberia upon Europe for everything needed for the maintenance of order in the country, there is a neglect of many phases of endeavor basic in the development of a young country, the experiment in Negro states, and the out under fair conditions. May it not be of intense personal interest to the Afro-American group to so work that the growth of Liberia as to assure more favorable soil for the growth of our most typical political plant in the soil to succeed.
Coffee
In 1919 Liberia exported two and a half millions pounds of coffee with a value at its ports of about three hundred thousand dollars and a resale value of at least One Million Dollars. This in spite of the fact that coffee prices in Liberia were exactly half the price offered at another period.
The coffee plant is originally a native of Southeastern Africa and is practically indigenous to the whole of Africa, being one of the useful products that the African flora has given to the world. It is to be found growing there abundantly in a wild state, particularly between the 5th and 15th parallels and in a state of cultivation on the West Coast in Liberia. Joseph M. Walsh in "Coffee" states that the plant was undoubtedly carried from Africa to Arabia, although the exact period and circumstances are not known. It is likely, however, that monks stationed in Abyssinia in the early period of Christian missions learned of the sustaining qualities of the berry and leaf of the plant from the natives and introduced the now universally used Coffee in Arabia and the world.
The American people are the largest consumers of coffee in the world and hundreds of millions of dollars are spent annually, coating from 15 to 28 cents per pound on the wholesale market for the better grades. There is no reason why the millions of dollars spent annually on the Coffee trade should not find their way into the coffees of our group in America and one of the hostages of the race and murder, must not rest his portion.
A GOOD WILL TOUR.
Dr. Robert R. Moton, Principal of Tukuee R. Institute, recently made a "good will" tour of 1,260 miles through Georgia, the "Empire State" city from north to south, 255 miles east to west, with a population of
Dr. Moton's itinerary included Atlanta, where he spoke in the City Auditorium to three thousand inhabitants, and women; Washington, where Jefferson Davis held his last Cabinese meeting; Elboron, where hundreds attended; Athens, where hundreds crowed into the Elbert County Court House; Athens, where hundreds of the best white citizens came through the North Bronx, where Negro leader who speaks the truth in kindness," Waynesboro, where hundreds of Negroes have migrated to the Bronx, where ten-boll weevil, Savannah, where Bishop F. P. Reeze, of the Protestant Episcopal Church, made a vignette for the Bronx-born Brunwick, where a Negro ten-bronk school, erected a memorial to the Colored soldiers of Glynn where the Tuskegee Indians were white and black people tracelong distant to hear a "good will message; Albany, where the members of the Tuskegee Indians were white and black people cheers and songs; Americans, where off-air representatives of the leading white business clubs were present, and where the tour was planned last May at the Fort Valley High and Industrial School; Macon, where the members of the Tuskegee Indians were clued nearly a thousand white men, women, and children; and Columbus, where a mixed audience heard Dr. Moton sum up his message.
"There are more clashes within the two races," said Dr. Moton, the head of the South officers' race. The South officers too often because the bad is flashed all over the world and the good, because it is hard to see. "We have has come when we should emphasize the thousands of good things that are happening in Georgia and Alabama, and the occasional bad things, I count among my best friends many of the Montgomery, of Alabama and Georgia—indeed, of all the Southern States as the Northern Eastern States. The Montgomery, of Alabama and Georgia had the Colored people had more white friends—courageous friends, black friends—courageous friends, South and through the Nation. The best blood of the South has said that lyricism must be stopped.
Dr. Moton made his "good will" tour on the invitation of the leading Colored leaders and with the co-operation of some of the best white citizens. He went through Georgia with the definite object of cementing more cordial and helpful relations between the races. He did not set out to flatter or scold either race. He set out to tell his own people how they could make greater progress through buying and improving land, building up greater race pride, saving their money, and talking to rather than about white people.
Dr. Moton, after expressing his heartfelt thanks to white people for all that they had done to encourage and help worthy Colored men and women to achieve success, pointed out clearly the need of having thoughtful white citizens put upon their conscience the equitable administration of existing laws as a result of the Regions who have to ride in wooden, insanity railway coaches, live in sections that lack proper lighting, sewerage, water, fire, and police protection and endure the terrorization of lawless whites. "Sometimes we forget," he said, "that today there is a devotion on the part of thousands of individuals of both races toward each other that is quite as sincere and helpful as it was in the past."
AN INTERESTING POLITICAL DOCUMENT FROM LIBERIA
Aborigines Political Association.
To the Aborigines of Liberia.
Greetings:
The Aborigines Political Association of the Republic of Liberia which was organized on the 4th of December 1992 by the Fellowship of Nation Building.
The Association stands for Co-operation organization which will bring together all Liberian citizens to work as One for the highest interest of Liberia.
The Association advocates for Unity of Purpose, and the members are ready to do their duty as a Government service. Government receives its alms and ideals for a Liberia which will be strong and stable and which will be for the glory of the Black Race.
The Association desires a strong civilization that the civilized members believe in the civilized societies are the 'interpreters of the Natives point of view, as well as the Central Government and the Natives.
The Association favors a strong internal policy which is coefiful, cooperative and which is wise and positive enough to be efficacious in achieving the
Whig Party, in the opinion of its members is trust to the democratic principles for which Liberia was founded. This party offers to the United States the second highest post of honor in the country. For this reason the Association pledge, in the words of the constitution, in the work of
tional policies
The Association will support that political party which in the opinion of its members works for the best interests of the people, and the objects for which the Association advocates.
(At the present time, the True Whig Party in the opinion of its members is true to the Aborigines the vice presidency of the Republic, the second highest post of honor in the country. For this reason the Association pleads to stand by the True Whig Party, and to vote for the Aborigine who is eligible, to vote for the Whig Party, unless otherwise advised from (quarers). The Association is a secret society, but is composed of Liberal citizens whose interests are national and whose deliberations are necessary. We are organizing as rapidly as possible in every county and urban area of the country, and together and form yourself into a Body, Choose a local chairman, a secretary, and a treasurer. Through this Association you will be able to the towns in your district and organize the civilized Aborigines who will cooperate with their people for the betterment of the country. We have under consideration the constitution of the Association which will be adopted as soon as leading candidates are elected.
Please write to the under-signed who has been elected to supervise the staff of the department and any useful suggestions which may ocur to your body, and which will help you in your work. Hoping you will give the master your best effort, you will hear from you very soon, we remain for the Abortions Political Committee, B. J. Davis, Chalkwran.
THE BOLDNESS OF THE
The Negroes of this country have a great reason for thanks to the law of equation. As a group, the Negroes have a great reason for thanks. There are a few who think our oblast yella will yet frighten the American white man into fair dealings. There are a few who think this is but opinion, and after all men may have opinions.
The most growing froution of the white man is the present disgrace in the South anent the finding of two bodies in a lake; and the investigation of the conduct of the Negroes of the South is as suspected of drowning the two recovered bodies some time during last August.
The present investigation retains its present garb of sincerity and earnestness, the country will be shown one of the darkest deeds known to the Negroes of the civilized men who prefer to be the law rather than support the law will be the answer to those who have been organized organizations parading under cover at night, and operating, ostensibly, in defense of a much abused and
And it will be more than that. It will be the answer to those who have been pleased to assert that the white man's civilization is the ideal civilization. It will be a body blow to what we have been taught to call "southern rule." It will be an expose of the conception of some men as to how the violators of sentiment should be dealt with. We wonder what would be the proper punishment for men who violated both sentiment and the law.
It is an embarrassing condition to be unearched in the land of "southern rule." It reflects seriously upon the white man of the South as a ruler over men. It is the mob run mad. It must be very embarrassing for those who have striven for law and order. But if we must have this kind of boldness of the mob, under the guise of protecting society, the sooner we discovered our mistake and correct, the better for the United States of America, and the American white man.

SUIT.
Newark, N. J. Jan. 18. — The deonair Rev. Mr. Ellijah L. Moseley was unable to free himself of the lawsuit proceeding last Thursday. Protestations by Mrs. Josephine Ford Moseley that he had always been a husband to his husband contributed to the clergyman's undoing. He lost his case because he was unable to prove he had been a victim of torture looking to a reconciliation. Mrs. Moseley fairly adjusted sincerity as she told of her appreciation for the band, although during the recital she pictured him as a "ladie man." On one occasion, following a brief meeting several women, and was really so familiar with them as to lovingly slap the face of one of

He is alleged to have told a prominent woman he would give her $20 that he would obtain the Brinkley and that if she would give him $20 that he would obtain the Brinkley and that if he had just returned from Brinkley and was going back that night.

She then came to police headquarters and swore out a warrant rested he was unable to pay his fine and was lodged in jail. He finally admitted the crime and that he would have pulled the same game on several other Negro women.
