This later led to a dispute as to what they should be. The men argued for over a week and Saturday took the guns and crossed into the city, "shoot it out." Dep Frames, who is stationed at the line, away from the men, put them on a stage bound to the police. They went to the police courts to decide. Carleton was in a disagreeable mood when they left the city.
Late yesterday, while thousands were watching the races a short distance away, George Monteverde, the police chief, guel and Porfiria, met Carleton on the tijuana bridge.
Four men were shot, while Monteverde brothers and two spectators were wounded, and Miguel chased Carleton to the head, then placed him under arrest.
The wounded brothers were rushed to a local sanitarium where George died. Carleton was placed in the caucasus and an angry crowd built up.
Cries of "lymch him" were on all sides as the mob stormed the municipal building.

When the battle was over George Monteverde, jalor at the Tijuana bridge, and his brother, Porfirio, seriously wounded and two spectators slightly hurt. After the battle, another participant in the shooting, was chased to the Cadino by Manuel Monteverde, brother of Porfirio, beat Carleton over the head and then arrested him. He was taken to the cuartel where a mob gathered, threatening witnesses. Reports that he had been hung and the body would be burned were made, and a court said that Carleton would have a military trial. He will probably be executed. He was shooting, which threw the border town into a furore of excitement, was caused by a dispute over January 29.

LYNCHING AND HOW TO STOP IT.
Philadelphia, Penn., Feb. 22.—At the last meeting of the Board of Managers of the Board of Temperance, Prohibition and Public Morals of the Methodist Episcopal Church, Rev. J. N. C. Coggin, D. D. Secretary for Colored work, offered the following resolution on lynching:
“We call earnestly upon the Methodist people throughout the length and breadth of the land to consider prayerfully and with a sense of duty the great problem of racial relations. Methodist ministers, both white and Colored, should appeal to the Christian conscience of every community to stamp out the custom of lynching and to minimize those points of friction between the races which result in race warfare.”
“Particularly urgent is the duty of the white people of the country to see that everyone charged with crime has a fair and open trial in efficient courts. It is a mistake to think that lynching is a necessity or that court action is not a deferent to all forms of crime.”
“We have this issue, then, been the football of politics and the subject of sectional recrimination. The problem has become national in its scope. The white people of the country control the courts and make the laws and for them to go outside of the law in the handling of crimes is a degradation of themselves, an indictment of the governments which they have created, a humiliation to every state and a national scandal.

He reported that the year 1923 was the first year in the history of the Urban League movement which started with a small group in New York spending $2.5 million in national movement with branches in more than forty cities spending more than $100 million. He gave great hands-on to better inter-racial relations has been the indifference of the great mass of whites and this indifference has been increased by the knowledge by the whites of Negroes, said Mr. Wood. "The last generation of Negroes from the South Indian country has significant change which has come about through the great migration of Negroes from the South Indian country to the East and Middle West and through the attention which has been brought to inter-racial relations by the ex-White National Congressional debates on the Dyer, Anti-Lynching Bill by the Congressional attempts to scrap one of Harvard's most precious traditions and by similar incidents in which the
"These incidents have made the great contribution of focussing attention on this matter and for the first time, the United States has been fostered there have been many real Americans who have accepted justice and fair-play and have become aroused to throw their influence into the arena of law and cooperation, such as the Commission on Inter-racial Relations which became so important to be deferred in the South, and the activities of the Federal Council of Churches of Christ in America. This increased interest, the Urban League announced the four new citizen organizations affiliated in 1922 and that the income of the national organization had increased $15,000 to a total of $454,486.
The announcement was also made that friends of the late Mrs. Harry Plotz, who died in Paris, last summer, the Plotz Fund, had been given to the National Urban League for the establishment of the Eliza Plotz Fund, the organization which "to the development and training of some Negro man or woman especially in the community."

Honorable Gentlemen: A committee from the Negro Teachers' State Association visited the State Training Juvenile School to discuss the need for our visit, beg to recommend to this committee a separate reformatory school on the penitentiary sites, that the state is contemplating selling.

Thus greatly reducing the cost of building We would also recommend that the Superintendent and Board of Trustees establish the same as that of the Gateville school. We would also recommend that the Superintendent and Board of Trustees establish the same as that of the Gateville school. We are found in the Oklahoma Reformatory School. Thus placing the reformatory school upon the penitentiary sites.
CHARGE BREACH OF JIM CROW LAWS; INDICT RAILWAY.
Chattanooga, Tenn. Feb. 24. — The grand jury voted against aminting the Tennessee Electric Company's lawsuit against the "Jim-Crow" law, lating the "Jim-Crow" law, all common carriers including railway companies, street car companies and other operators of vehicular passenger cars, and vide separate accommodations for the handling of Negro passengers. In reference to street cars, the law vided and that certain seats will be set apart for the use of Negro passengers, plainly seats to be used for Negro passengers, the dividing line, showing, clearly plainly seats to be used for Negro passengers, according to the law, may be moved by the conductor, or person in charge of the car as conditions must be placed between the two reservations. The street car company has been evading the letter of the law for a year or more by the use of Negro passengers, the dividing line, according to the law, may be placed at the front end of the car it states that "this part of the car is for white people," and that the car it states that "this part of the car is for Colored people." In any manner designate the location of the dividing line they do not, according to the idea of the grand jury, appear before the Negro Court of Appeals in pleading the seats in a street car with a goodly number of white passengers, the rivals, the matter of seat separation being left to the passengers
Much complaint has been heard because of this system but no effort has been made to correct it until the present. This effort, however, has proved sufficient to correct the fault as the law carries a penalty for its violation and fines of from $80 to $450 for each.

Called by Federal Grand Jury to Testify Concerning Garvey's Visit to Atlanta Last Year. Asked to Make Letters Public.
New York, N. Y., Feb. 22.—Edward Young Clarke, Imperial Giant of the Ku Klux Klan, came to this city from Atlanta, Ga., and appeared before the Federal Grand Jury as a witness against Marcus Garvey, the Negro leader, who is to be tried on Feb. 20, on a charge of defrauding investors in the Black Star Line. Garvey is the head of the "Back to Africa" movement.
At a meeting of the Universal Improvement Negro Association here in July, Garvey, who is known as the "Provisional President of Africa," denounced the Ku Klux Klan, but in October last he made a secret trip to Atlanta and conferred there with Clarke. The Government learned of his conference recently and Assistant United States District Attorney Maxwell 8 Mattuck had Clarke subpoenaed before the Grand Jury.
It is believed that Clarke told of his dealing with Garvey. Clarke promised Mr. Mattuck after his appearance before the Grand Jury that he would send here papers which might throw light upon any overtures made by the Black Star Line to the Ku Klux Klan.
"Edward Young Clarke was subpoenaed here by me from Atlanta ten day ago after the investigation into the case of Marcus Garvey disclosed that Clarke was visited by Garvey at Atlanta some time ago in connection with Garvey's Black

"It was my purpose to determine the nature of the conference between the so-called 'Provisional President of Africa,' and Clarke, appeared before the Grand Jury this morning and was examined by me at length as to the conference between the two men."
Garvey and three officers and directors of the Black Star Line were indicted on a charge of having falsely stated that the line intended to purchase a steamship and an excursion boat and to operate them, and also to purchase a steamship which was to operate between this port and Africa. The line was capitalized at $10,000,000, and Garvey and his associates sought to sell 2,000,000 shares of the stock at par to members of his race by issuing circulars sent through the malls.
In January, a Negro clergyman, J. W. H. Eason, who was to have been the chief witness for the Government against Garvey, was murdered in New Orleans. There was about fifty other witnesses on whom the Government's list, however, who would be able to supply the same evidence, it was said. Mr. Mattuck said he had known form some time that attempts were being made to intimidate witnesses, and that several of them had said that their lives had been threatened.
Tuskegee, Ala., Feb. 22—America stands committed to the principle of the right to individual freedom made forever plain and clear by Abraham Lincoln, Vice-President Calvin Coolidge said last Monday in an address dedicating the $2,000,000 Government hospital for Negro veterans of the World War.
“In the less than seventy years has the Negroes in America have been in the enjoyment of freedom they have made marvelous progress,” said the Vice-President. “That pro-black-ness has made the great majority of an individual, of their people have performed the plain, everyday duties of life, when the call came in time of war they were ready and devoid of enlist them they were to evade any service for their country. In spite of every deception or temptation to which public enemies artfully subjected them, They exhibited a loyalty and devotion to the cause of the people, and the true, true, true, true, true. Nearly four hundred thousand of them went into military service.”
The total casualty of Negro troops, he said, was approximately 103 officers and 4,543 enlisted in the service. He was killed in twenty enlisted men were killed in action. Fourteen Negro officers and forty-three enlisted men received the distinguished service cross, he added. The Negroes' record at home and abroad during the war was of the same nature as the men of the American people, he said. "They have justified the faith of Abraham Lincoln."
At the hospital, which is well equipped, World War Negro veterans were also provided with treatment for all classes of physical, mental, and so on injuries incident to their service at home or abroad.
The hospital will accommodate 600 patients. Sir Robert H. Stanley is in charge. It is proposed later to be a white, well-trained, experienced medical staff, exceeding the

TEXAS SUFFERED NEARLY $20,000,000 LOSS IN 1921. ACCORDING TO NATIONAL BOARD OF FIRE UNDERWRITERS THREE-FOURTHS OF THIS WASTE CLEARLY PREVENTABLE.
Can it be that residents of Texas really are not much concerned about the persistently mounting cost of living? That, of course, is highly unlikely. The state is compelled by the Actuarial Bureau of The National Board of Fire Underwriters and made public today, $19,934,268 worth of property was burned in this state during 1981; and this is a waste of substantially affective living expense. [To this fire total loss—which places Texas fifth among the forty-eight states—every woman, woman and child contributed an average of $1,000,000 to it. In 1918, the destruction amounted to $10,$24,372, which indicate the starting increase in $3,000,000 in property, also, to add to the total, 25 per cent for unreported and unaccounted
Analysis of the elaborate tabulation published by the National Board established so-called originating causes, "Matches-Snapping," was chiefly responsible for this damage, which caused the damages inflicted was $1,028,635. Following this cause came fireproblem and "Lighting," to which was attributed $603,276. Fire prevention engine issues of the country's permanent fire destruction always is clearly preventable, because to that extent it is due to the carelessness and to ignorance.

CLAIM CONVICTS OF GEORGIA WANT WORK WITHOUT LASH.
Atlanta, Feb. 22.—Convictions cannot be worked on the roads in Georgia without the lash as a mean of enforcing discipline," declared the spokesman for the state prison commission in a conference with Governor Hardwick last Thursday in regard to the abolition of whipping in the convict camps and at the state prison farm.
A committee from the council of Christian churches of Atlanta presented the Governor with a legal brief arguing that the constitution forbids whipping. Gov. Hardwick has often estimated his dielice of whipping convicts. He said that the convicts are handled under rules and regulations described by the prison commission and approved by the governor.
"Mam, I the convicts are Neurosciences and are no way to enforce discipline and gel a lazy Negro to work except by fear of the lash. The Neurosciences and will not work unless it is made to feel he is constantly in danger of severe punishment," declared a member of the commission.

In 1929, 980 applied, as much of it might have been, to construction of good macadam roads, to erection and maintenance of hospitals or to any one of a score of public works, this amount of money would have served the two-fold purpose of imbuing the city at the same time lowering taxes. Furthermore, there were sundry incidental losses, apart from the main one, that should not be forfeited. The amount of money stroyed was automatically removed, al least for a time, from municipal funds, an increased levy upon other property holders.

The whole race, especially the colored women must rise up and defend the enactment of such a law. Not upon the grounds that we are dearest of intermarriage, but upon the laws that the Colored woman still has in nineteen away the legal recourse which the Colored woman still has in nineteen away the seduces her and upon the ground that the Negro refuses to be written down in Federal law as such conventions of these facts, I call upon the State Presidents, the officers and the rank of ATONCE to Senate Cappen and Congressman Fairfield their most UNGENT PROTEST against this proof. Ever an anon some un-American measure is proposed to disparage the manhood of the race. Let NO WOMAN REST until the desks two hawkers are buried beneath the manhood of this country. Jalille Q. Brown, President, National Women's College, Woman's manhood of this country. Feb. 14, 1923.
SOUTHERN WHITE WOMEN
FAVOR THE DYER ANTI-LYNCH
ING BILL.
Columbus, Ga., Feb. 22—A meeting of the South Georgia Missionary Society have last tuesday taken on violence and unbinding the Dyer Anti-Lynching bill. One speaker said, "It is a blunt on the fair in that we have been forced to abolish a bill of the Dyer Anti-Lynching bill should have been defeated in congress. The horrible atrocities that have occurred in this country partly throughout this country and more especially in the southern states with our state laws are such un civilized and diabolical crises, are moving this country the laughing joke of Europe last summer Europe referred to lynching as an American past time. Some of them even were killed in the United States attempting to act as guardian for conduct in Europe, but such things as lynching and murder of the United States Klan were no prominent in this country. We cannot hope to have our country superior civilization respect the laws of our house at home. The Dyer Anti-Lynching bill was the first step toward one of our worst evil."

board finally decided to replace it with a *n* new and modern, and adequate building. Throughout the present school year many Ngoh children were awaiting the completion of the new building. As that structure took shape and handmade proportions, it was raised against its devotion to Ngoh education. Wisely and properly the new building was built, its constancy to its original purpose was shown when the new Ngoh school was completed. Ngoh who had served the cause of education many years ago. Only *l* little while ago it reaffirmed its
The sudden reversal occurred just as the building is ready for use, for example, the school in the district heavily populated with *Negrogs* without school facilities. Their transfer to the school is in a practical impossibility, not only because the distances to be travel'd are too great in many instances, but because the school is ready overcrowded. The board's action amounts in effect, to denial of schooling to hundreds of *Negrogs* in the district, and to correct for their use stands idle.
There is not even the color of justification that might be pleaded for. We need to need this new school for their own use. Suprintendent Gwinna has resisted the district, far from being overaxed, have accommodations for more children than now are required. We have a responsible he concludes, "to use this building as an elementary school for white children when they are not required to deny to Negro children a school bldg expressly for their use, upon request, without protest for forty years. So flargent an injunction ought to prosecute Negro children in the minfolk. Permitted to stand, it will constitute an immunity which prides its self upon its fair treatment of its Negro citizenry and its care for the education of the Negro children.
THE NEGRO NORTH AND SOUTH.
The inconstistency of the attitude of some people of the North toward the negrity is never brought out so clearly as when some shocking crime happens in which a negrity is ever since the days of abolition. North has loved to lecture the South. There has been much agony of spirit north of the plasmon Dixon line over South. If there has been much agony of spirit South. If a negrity is mishandled in the South for some heinous crime, it is evidence of a lack of civilization. But let a negro commit a serious offense in the North against a white person, and what happen? Are all people of the North just as muscled, equality and brotherly love put into practice? The race riots in the North now and then answer that question. Are all people of the North either South or North. The best people of the North are just as muscled, equality and brotherly love put into practice. The race riots in the North now and then answer that question. Are all people of the North either South or North. For the sake of consistency, the North might well study its own methods. In the way the South meets a situation in which a negrity is involved in unpeaceable violence, a similar situation, in that while the South charges the crime to the individual negro, the North is pronounced.
An example has just occurred in Indiana. Following the commission of the militia, the nation demanded the evacuation of the negro population of several towns. The negroes were warned to stay out, but they were remotely connected with the crime were classed with the criminology department and were enceased on them. Contrast the action with the action of the militia of Houston at the time of the mutiny of negro soliders in 1789. If ever the white people were attacked by the negroes on another tree it was furnished in that case. Bullying negro soldiers, the negroes of vicious negroes, openly attacked the town. A score of innocent cold blood. Most of them died in ignorance of the mutiny. The militia of Houston There was no semblance or a riot. White citizens who aided the military, forces and militia of the negroes murdered negro troop, were duly deputized by the authorities. The
And after the disturbance, not a single negro was violated. No molestation or population from Houston ever entered the city. But had such an outcurrence occurred of the white people of the city, it would have been a terrible te-come-to-one that the negro district would have been burned and the city would have been destroyed. Louis Chicago, Philadelphia and other centers of recent racial discontent individual nero in the South who commit the unpardonable crimes run a risk of being lynched, and the nero race as a whole would perceive who decides most wisely with it. let it compare the actions of North Carolina and Texas to a groat into serious troubles.

WAKING A DEAD ONE.
If a thing can be "deader" than dead, we don't know it. But certainly it may be truthfully said of our local business league that it has been dead; has ceased of function for so long a time that it may be classed, like old King Tut—whatever his name is, in an age gone by.
An attempt is being made to resurrect it. And we hope that this attempt may be more highly successful than those of the past few years have been.
Once the league flourished and really did great things for Negro business life in Dallas. But finally it waned and for several successive years was resurrected and allowed to die again.
It is sorely needed now. Properly managed and skillfully directed it could do much to hasten the development of Negro business to the point of real efficiency.
More than once we have called attention to the fact that our people spend more than $6,000,000 each year for the necessities of life. That money might as be spent to better advantage with Negro merchants, giving employment to Negro salesmen, managers, bookkeepers, etc.
The lack of prober business direction and salesmanship is all that keeps such a condition from maintaining. The Nero merchant in Dallas has not sold himself to his people. The spirit of the town as far as business is concerned has not progressed beyond the one man stage.
We hope that the new executive of the resurrected league are more with vision enough and courage enough to venture out into new fields seeking to raise the interest of the public out of the lethargy into which it has been allowed to sink.
Dallas has agencies enough which can be interested to put every business enterprise on a new plane to a Lw it up to the prospective buyer in a new light.
Those merchants who compose it must also decide to spend wisely in advertising if they expect to reap largely in rewards. Dallas has progressed beyond the stage when to be in business was to be well known. The public does not know its Negro merchants. It can only know them by being told about them and their goods well and
To the everlasting shame of Dalton, be it said that it is the only team in the league to be found which does not have an active and so ergobic business league which contributes argyte to the national league. During the past few years I has not been represented at the National League, it has sought to prove itself by the success of leagues composed of men of other races which in recent years have been uniformly successful right here in Dalton.
We hope that this closest restraint of the learn may mean preparation for a machine that is not habitable. If it is needed, it can pop up a definite feature. Properly directed it can serve as a city wall that will be able to build all agrees that these are badly needed.

KEEPING THE SPORTS CLEAN.
the progressive step could have been a public Conference than its resolution to the playing of professional men on co-ops are sport only in so far as the and free from commercial taints. The success of their teams leads them of non-students on their teams ten schools and to incite in the minds of their students its resolution as unnecessary as it matters, not many years in the past arguments of some school teams have of course cannot be so easily regulated at the announcement against it by act as a act to the great extent without leaving the considerate without again calling attention from to the lack of ability to lose grazed often by some of our schools. The they are prone to argue discriminatory without definite proof. This happes sustained, truthfully said that the public does they lower the dignity of the so settled without a publicity assume a day when athletics large and satisfactory pro our schools through their Confere sportsmanship and realize that any stress will give it.
No more progressive step could have been taken by the Southern Athletic Conference than its resolution discouraging betting and the playing of professional men on college teams. College sports are sport only in so far as the spirit of rivalry is healthy and free from commercial taints. Those whose desire for the success of their teams leads them to wink at the membership of non-students on their teams tend to lower the plane of the schools and to inculcate in the minds of the students wrong ideas of what true sport is. Nor is this resolution as unnecessary as it may seem. There have been instances, not many years in the past, which proved that the management of some school teams have not been above such proptosities.
Betting of course cannot be so easily regulated as the choice of players, yet the announcement against it by the conference can be made to act as a deterrent to a great extent. Nor would it be right to leave the consideration of sports in our schools without again calling attention from the standpoint of the public school system to lose perfect which has been often by some of our schools. They are too ready to offer alibi, they are prone to argue discrimination, they claim unfair tactics without definite proof. This happens particularly when a loss is sustained.
It may be truthfully said that the public does not appreciate such arguments. They lower the dignity of the schools involved. They can be settled without publicity.
There ought to come a day when athletes among Texas college athletes will satisfyactory proportions. This will happen if our schools through their Conference uphold the spirit of true sportsmanship and realize that any sport needs publicity. The press will give it.
MAKING THEM KNOW.
reported that during the presentation we prepared that during the presentation two weeks ago, one of the members of the representatives of the Teacher like what your folks ought to do or what they well. Let them see that they well. Let them see that they not get exactly all that they will after having asked that. Statement was in place there and mattered. We grumble much to our conditions but seldom ever do we take steps to lay our grievances before the favorable conditions. We seem to this which an attitude may be a natural heritage were compelled to take what was their masters to doing, being such as it ourselves with the belief that such is now exists. Complain openly and definitely abuses for satisfaction with them. They must say what they want as the attention of those in whose hands often our protest stops among us. We thus does fear and distrust our consideration of those in power better ourselves much by being unwilling better railroad accommodations let a whole to the railroad officials. Better streets and more sanitary; is before the governing bodies of our whatever we feel that we need, let us Thus only can we find out define it the power to speak and it seldom is denied us. In the past our fair opinion for failing to be more seriously or worse forever.
It is reported that during the presentation of the petition asking for a separate reformatory for Negro boys at the State Legislature two weeks ago, one of the members of the committee said to the representatives of the Teachers' Association: "This is more like what your folks ought to do. Your people should ask for what they want. Let them seek those whose duty it is to remedy the conditions which they don't like. Of course it may not get exactly all that they want. But they stand a better chance after having asked."
Such a statement was in place there and may well be more widely considered. We grumble much to ourselves. We talk about poor conditions but seldom ever do we take definite and systematic steps to lay our grievances before those responsible for the unfavorable conditions. We seem to think that "they ought to see the wrong and the cultural heritage of the days when our people were compelled to take what was considered fit for them and that we were deeply interested, from an economic standpoint, in their well being as it was, we can no longer moment ourselves with the belief that such a special rea- for interest now exists.
Not to complain openly and definitely about unfavorable conditions argues for satisfaction with them. Mens minds cannot be read. They must say what they want and that saying must come to the attention of those in whose hands the power to relieve lies. All too often our protest stops among us. We fear to present our caces. Thus does fear grow and distrust gain the upper hand in our consideration of those in power.
We can better ourselves much by being unwilling to continue longer Juns.
If we want better railroad accomodations let us present our grievances as a whole to the railroad officials.
gravences as a whole to the streets and more sanitary homes, let us remember before the overcrowding bodies of our cities.
In short, whatever we feel that we need, let us ask more directly for it. Thus only can we find out definitely that it cannot be had.
We have the power to speak and it seldom ever happens that audience is denied us. In the past our failure to ask has been due to the need to be more seriously considered. That not be true forever.
ANOTHER COLOR DECISIO N.
meaning of "free white persons"

case of a high caste Hindu. He was

revoked
nation of the decision the Supreme
an is a conventional word of much
a literature dealing with racial
itic it and the words "white persons
for the purpose of the Ozawa case.
Another meaning of "free white persons" as used in the naturalization laws is established by a recent Supreme Court ruling in the case of a high caste Hindu. He was granted citizenship by the U. S. Court of Oregon but by this latest ruling his citizenship is revoked.
In explanation of the decision the Supreme Court declares that "Caucasian is a conventional word of much flexibility." "As a study of the literature dealing with racial questions will disclose, and while it and the words 'white persons' are treated as synonymous for the purpose of the Ozawa case, they are not of identical meaning."
The words "white persons" are words of "common speech and the scientific origin", and the substitution for them of the Word Caucasian would only substitute one perplexity for another. The Word Caucasian has however, by common usage acquired a popular meaning, which is of much narrower scope, the court said, than its scientific application.
"It is in the popular sense of the word, therefore, that we employ it as an aid to the construction of the statute," "for it would be obviously illogical to convert a common speech neither the latter nor the science for whose purpose they were coined within the contemplation of the framers of the statute. The words of the statute are to be interpreted in accordance with the understanding of the common man from whose vocabulary they were taken."
And now we see two instances in which Colored races are denied citizenship in "the melting pot"—the Japanese and now the Hindus.
Herefore, it has been blindly assumed that all nations with the exception of Chinese and Japanese had the privilege of becoming American citizens if they so desired but these two recent decisions of the Supreme Court show that belief unfounded. What does it mean? Certainly upon the face of it it appears as a crystallization of the white supremacy" which never before has had such a splendid opportunity of expressing itself. It has become the national religion so that now there seems to be no recourse from it. From a national standpoint no time has ever before been so propitious as now for acquainting the whole Colored world with the stand of America in this regard America now has such an ample labor supply that she no longer is dependent on the white man for her labor. In her operation her genitive industries. She is mistress of the world of production and her peculiar financial position during the war has made her banker for the world. She is able to choose her citizens. But if such a course as is indicated by this and the Japanese decisions, is to be followed. America must take down her welcome to all men and races. Instead of having it declared physically and unlawfully as a welcome it declare that "white men only need supply" have Colored enough already. Nor is it to be supposed that Negroes are already citizens by a Constitutional Amendment may feel that they alone of all the world are welcome. They are just here. That is all. And a step further in pursuit of the "white men only" scheme can, by a little stretch of the imagination is carried far enoow, to the class of inhabitants only.
Literally this last is a pessimistic presumption but it is not altogether unaware in the face of certain events which have occurred.

UNSPEAKABLE INJUSTICE.

that all over Indiana and it warning Negroes that they are within the confines of our injustice, as is that of Blanc indole a whole nation or war more than a subversion of injurious decree.

The Negro Here he has his irades that accumulate property, and that account not instances of achieve to us at the moment are relinquished up in the South and remain in the South—the land
THERE is so much hypocrisy in the attitude of the North towards the brother in black that it is worth while to point a moral by directing attention to an ever-recurring incident which emphasizes this attitude. The other day the people of Blanford, Ind., aroused over an incident in which a Negro boy 11 years of age was the principal and a little white girl was the second, that within 48 hours they would all have to get out. The next day the exodus began, and by nightfall, press dispatches state, every Colored person in the town was gone.
We are advised that all over Indiana and Illinois there are signs posted in the towns warning Negroes that they are not wanted and not to let the sunset find them within the confines of the town.
This is frightful justice, as is that of Blanford. Blanford said to a judge in indictment, and to attempt it is nothing more than a subversion of injustice. There is a law in this land that is supreme. It knows no brother, no race, no condition. It is our sovereign, and when any individual, no matter who it may be, violates that law, the strong army of justice is there to reach out and get him.
States is against mok law in any form, whether it be Ku Klux Klan, or lynching bees, or Blanford mobs that use their power to drive innocent and helpless blacks from their homes. It is to her credit that the South has never been guilty of such inhumanity against the black people as the Blanford incident reveals.
In line with the foregoing the advice of Bishop Fountain, to the conference of Colored ministers now meeting in New Orleans, is worth nothing. He tells the members of his race to remain in the South, where they are under attack, and to be detained, and where they are understood. He sees in industrial competition with the white men of the North increasing trouble for the Colored man
This advice is to be commended. The Negro has made his greatest advances in the South. Here he has his trades that he has unmolested. Here he is allowed to accumulate property, and can grow wealth if he has it in him. The most noted instances of achievement wrought by Colored men which occur to us at the moment are related to those who were born in the South, grew up in the South and did their work in the South. They should remain in the South—the land of their greatest opportunity.

If a bill favorably reviewed in the Senate becomes law, the army engineers will select in Washington a suitable site where on Jeopardy Davis Chapter, Daughter of the Confederacy, will erect a monument in memory of "the faithful Colored mammals of the South." Such a tribute would be well deserved. The Colored mammals of the South were the first African children with a vow of worthy all of praise. Southern writers alike of fact and fiction have eloquently described their faithful service, and Southern women might be permitted to express their sense of it in any way they may desire, if the art of the monument is adequate to carry its sentiment.
More than such a memorial to certain of its class, the Negro race as a whole might the ordinary rights of American citizens for all of its members. Negroes might well be to free, in cities, from exploitation and oppression. Negroes might well be to provide sharp practice in the disposition of their crops against which it is often death to protest.
Conceded with little, the Negro might wink at the loss of his constitutional political rights in many localities if he could be granted the older guarantees of life, liberty and freedom in re pursuit of happiness; if the reef of law could be substituted for Judge Lynch and the hooded slave, if the slave could be freed, in that case that would compliment be set along quite contentedly if it could be justified of a fair chance in the Republic its heavy toll enriches.

It is in its essence an appeal to prejudice and passion, and if unchecked will bear fruit in the horrors of racial conflict. The formal protest, therefore, addressed to the Attorney General and the group of the leading金融机构, will be published by the publicists of the Negro community everywhere with approval and sympathy by order-loving and human people of what ever color.
The significance of this protest lies in its origin and in its manifestation of a growing realization among intelligent and educated Negroes that its liberation from injustice and oppression can only be brought about through a concerted effort by the Negro race and by a co-operation in which the latter must take an equal part. Great as are the evils growing out of the spirit incubated by Garvey and his "Universal Negro Improvement Association," a spirit of hatred, distrust, violence and revenge, and important as it is to protect the ignorant and guillotine from robbery and cruel exploitation, the graver activities create in the minds of the white peaces as to the real aim and

purpose of those Negroes who are striving earnestly and surely for the advancement of their race, the elimination of prejudice and unfair discrimination in industry and in civic life. While the Negro needs to be protected from the enemies to progress in his own race, the community at large in a greater degree needs to be protected from the enemies to progress in his own race, the community at large in a greater degree needs to be safeguarded against an evil protector sowing the seeds of bitter antagonism and strike. Is this why the Department of Justice should receive thoughtful consideration and preventive action in the interests of order and racial harmony.

This disease is an inflammation of the mucous membrane of the bronchus and is characterized by cough, expectoration, soreness about the chest and a sensation of chest pain. This disease usually results from exposure to wet and cold, or getting into drowns, inhalation, or contact with infectious agents as a complication to infectious and contagious diseases like measles, influenza, whooping cough, or very young individuals are more liable to bronchitis and those whose occupations subside may be more likely to bring on this disease. Variability of the temperature and humidity of the atmosphere also subject one to cough.
As a rule the general constitutional symptoms are mild with the cough, hoarseness and sore or irritated throat as the most annoying symptoms. At the onset of the disease there may be a little fever with chilliness and a fresh cold. The fever rarely reaches 162 or 103 fahrenheit with a slight acceleration of the pulse often a few days the cough becomes very ansoying and at this time there is soreness at the pit of the stomach immediately below the end of the breast bone, sometimes even pain is experienced upon coughing and pain may be referred to the intercortical muscles. This pain is due to the spasmodic contractions of the diaphragm from coughing the breathing is more rapid than normal but there is no shortness of breath, the cough is hard, dry and often manifests itself in spells, which may be long or short, this is particularly noticed on lying down and on rising after a full night's sleep. At the end of a few days the cough may be moist and with free expectation comes relief to the patient. The individual suffering with this disease should remain in doors where the temperature is even and the atmosphere moist and at all times be protected against cold and dampness. Take a saline laxative to open up the bowels and seek the service of the family physician in order to assure a quick recovery and prevent possible complication.

I Roey cheeks and raven hair,
Her pretty eyes so true
She sheeps through breath and

She sheeps short, her voice is sweet
She sheeps light with little feet.
But what charms you all the while
And your days hours will beguile,
And your days hours will beguile.
There is none who can compare.
She since fine, and can recite,
Converse well, each word is
right.
But what holds you as a dream,
is that even seem is
that captivating him.

Henry Lincoln Johnson is a politician. A politician, mind you not, is a man who is different from you, known. Nowadays it may be somewhat difficult to determine where one tribe begins and the other one is but there is no difference. In the same way there is a democracy a politician shines with a lunuleally overpowered by the state. A stateman will help is a rare specimen of the "Politician"s and is used, at odd intervals, to form a group of people who are in the same way when the people temper to State documents and party platforms. There is a great need for the state to be a part of the redoutable Heary Lincoln none too, and it certainly but that a party platform of a group and a guide, would adhere to the a pertinence of spirit that is a particular one of the outstanding and)”
The great)”
The great, of the American political aunts. Speaking of "political stunts" and the use of the state's laws, the state has been a far-reverend oration delivered before the credentialal, "the committee before the said��," said, "that the state is a smart nigger." Of course I cannot suberibe to the nigg. I am a man who is not a man who has a smart "his me square and I accept it" is graciously unduressively the iron hand eached in the velvet-like form of the line of instructions of Henry Lincoln Johnson's blandishments when he has been a man who is not a man who is in the cracking of a hard political nipper. And he plays no favorites when it comes to making political eidades. He is a man who is not a man who is in theன்றing of the color in Mr. Johnson's political manipulations. The only difference is the more of heart in their black aspects.
FACTS ABOUT THE TUBERCULIS DEATH RATE
The Department of Commerce, through the Federal Bureau of Census, announced that about 80,000 deaths were due to tuberculosis in the death registration area of the United States and that about 50,000 deaths of the United States has had as many deaths from this disease in proportion to the population, the tuberculosis death rate in the entire United States for 1921 was about 167,000, or 16,500 less than the 122,000 estimated in Texas is not in the registration area as yet, so this office cannot give definite information on the death rate of the registration area and comparing it to the entire population. This would mean that deaths from tuberculosis in 1921. The best authorities estimate nine living cases to every tuberculosis death. This would mean that Texas had 39,778 active cases of tuberculosis during the past year. In the Chattanooga area by state Tuberculosis Sanitarium the deaths each year in Texas was estimated at 19,000 and the number of living cases in Texas was estimated at 19,000.
The migratory consumptive is one problem that this state has to contend with, but each year it is more difficult. This is due to the educational campaign which show that tuberculosis may be cared in any climate if it is not treated with the tuberculosis Association, with the assistance of all state and local associations, has been conducting an intensive collar program for tuberculosis for a number of years. The success of their efforts is shown by the steadily decreasing number of tuberculosis cases. You can help in the saving of lives if you will tell your friend that tuberculosis can be cured if discovered in its case. You can help in that a periodic physical examination is the best way of locating the infection. It is much better to pay a doctor to visit you than to pay him to get you well.

MY TWELVE YEARS IN BASE BALL.

APTICLE 2
How I Came Out in Practice.
Indianapolis, Inc., Feb. 22. We arrived at the park at 3:30 pm. passed a few balls to each other, then we were ready for our practice. All the players wanted me to try their positions, but Pullman put me at short. I had a wonderful lot of speed at the time and could throw a ball very hard; Pullman was batting the ball to the infield and when it came my turn to field the first ball he hit to me, was a hard chance. I knocked it down and recovered it quickly and whipped it to the first base; the next was straight at me and awful hard; I made a great one hand stab of it and threw it to first and the first baseman muffed it; saw it was too hot to hand it. On my fifth chance I had begun to think I could play short and rushed in on a hard hit ball, and just as I went down to field it, it took a ball bounce and hit me in the face and knocked me out; so that was the end of my short stop position.

Pullman, the Captain both liked me so may decided to "keep me. That was on Thursday and we were to go to Silabee. We practiced again on Saturday; I had always been a pretty fair batter, so we were taking batbats. But the man was considered the most dangerous batter in that part of the country and he used a very large bat. When he came my turn to bat, "Bolea" was pitching and he throw me a curve ball which he hit. The ball fell on him, then he hewed a fast bait that I hit over the fence. I was using Pullman's bulb in the first shot, and I was surprised myself just to think that I was batting against "Billy Bolea," the best left-hander in the league. I thought they thought I was a good man.
My First Game.
The Fostoria Club arrived and Geo. Kidd then owner of them, and who would bet the limit his club would beat any body, offering odds, 2 to 1, that they would win and he got plenty of callers because the fans had confidence in "Bo-legs" that he could beat any body.
Geo. Kidd was satisfied that if "Bo-legs" pitched against his club he would win. He gave "Bo-legs" fifty dollars to not pitch and gave him a job on his club and payed him more than he was getting with us, so "Bo-legs" jumped us and Geo. Kidd was satisfied because he thought he could beat any pitcher on the club. When the game was called, "Bo-legs" refused to pitch; the fans made up a large purse and offered him to pitch, but he refused; Willie our first baseman had to pitch and Holland, our center fielder played first; I went to right field.
The first inning Fostoria scored 3 runs and our fans lost all hopes.
Where I Made Good.
In our last half of the first, Walker, first baseman up filed out to center; Holland singled to left;IBM, second baseman up filled out. Pullman came to the bat and the bats begged him to hit a home run, but the mighty Pullman struck out, and was following Pullman in the batting order; the fans had little hopes left after Pullman bounced, but some players had faith in me, so we wanted to bat I was determined; to do something and on the first pitch, to double to right and scored two runs, to double to right and scored two runs, pitcher because his next pitch was wilt and I went to thirc and stole home for the their running; I got four runs, and drove in live runs. We won the game 9 to 7. No. 2 which will be next week I will tell about how they found out I could pitch.

President Hardin Gives Clemency to Members of 24th Who Participated in Race Riot of 1917. Sentences of Ten Others Were Commuted to Life Imprisonment by Ex-President Wilson.
Washington, Feb. 23.—Although official records are unavailable to those again, it was given out at the War Department that communication of sentences imposed by court martial in the Houston, Peru, race riot case of August 22, 1917, was made by the senior prisoner of life imprisonment at Leavenworth, Kan. It was reported here that no demonstration was shown by the prisoners when the good news was received. Nor has any official comment been obtained by reporters. In seven cases, it is alleged, life sentences had been committed to 20 years and the residue of prisoner sentences reduced from 15 to 10 years.
The action was taken, it was explained, after a review, application and approval of the Court's final rule, acting judge advocate general, personally reviewed, and recommended that the court were approved by Assistant Secretary Wainwright by cohesion it determined that the judge advocate of the court which originally held the case and handed it to the Court, reviewed again by Colonel Hill as the acting chief law officer of the Court.
An unofficial and incomplete list of those receiving commissions from life to 26-year sentence included Ben Tillimon, Laurel A. Boye, Rustin Batter, John Geler, James E. McKinney, John H. Gould, Gerald Dickson, H. zekiah C. Turgee and Douglas T. Bolden. The commissioners of the Department of Justice and Samuel O. Riddle received commissions reducing their terms of imprisonment from 15 to 10 years.
Constant modern recalling the war and its horrors will remember the deplorable pleight of those who were imprisoned on August 23, 1917. At least Houston citizens will always be able to refer to the fateful night tight in the streets of Houston. The Houston police had trouble at the REGIO PROBLEM (A PROBLEM).
Rev. H. H. Crompton Says City officials have begun regularly registering Education of Race.
Worcester, Mass. Feb. 22—“What the people of America call the 'race problem' has little or no impact on church life, that there is such a problem,” declared Rev. Earl H. Crampon, pastor of Bohler church, church congregation, the congregation of the Grace Methodist church. Rev. Mr. Crampon spokes on “The Contribution of the Race Problem to the Grace Methodist church’s cause and effect
When a great shipload of foreigners come to the shores and it is found that none know how to read or write it is termed a great educational problem, but when our recalls that there are thousands of Negroes in the same condition in this country it is at once called a race problem that must be studied out with the greatest of care," said Her. Mr. Crampton.
"If one finds old ramshackle sharks in the Negro quarters of the South and unsanitary conditions existing, quick-thinking people call that a race problem. Take the city of Atlanta, Ga., where there are more than 14,000 Negro children in the public schools, yet less than 2000 of them are on full time and none of them in the high schools. That is not a race problem; it is the evident failure of the city to pure for the Negroes."
"Take away most of the present day problems and one will find that no such things as a race problem exists. The Negro race is no longer a child race and the activities appearing in the 200 Negro paper and marvins in the country show that the mind of the Colored people does not dwell on the light type of story that is seen in other magazines, for the pages of the Negro magazine are devoted to articles that are sound and contain opinion."
The failure of the Senate to pass the Dyer Anti-Lynching Bill, not to mention the success it has had, is a great effect on the Negroes of the country. The things Negroes have contributed to America are loyally and patience. The Negro has always been known for his loyalty, yet to be articles in the Negro esquivers show this running out. The Loyalty graved from a Negro for the treatment is evidenced in the fact that a Negro American Legion post pledged their allegiance to France, the land where racial prejudice is unknown.
"One of the most helpful signs of the fact is that the Christian conscience is being aroused. This is especially true in the South where the Commission on Inter-Racial Cooperation is operating in the very districts where in the past the Negro had to ride on separate cars, so to separate schools and where the net of separation was carried

Anyhow, it was reported that shortly after dark on the night of the 323d, the troops-raided their own annuition tent and marched out of camp, 150 strong, led by non-commissioned officers. The fatal march headed down Washington and San Felipo route, and through the Colored section.

Mounted police from the station were present, but most of them were killed.
The following day the deputy sheriff searched every nook and corner of the surrounded area, and of the underground, under houses, in the ball park, in closets and other places where they had taken refuge. Several bodies were killed. Houstonians never knew, as rumors concerning the number were never considered very complete. The troops were ordered removed from Houston immediately. They were later tried by court martial at Camp Travis, 65 of them being hanged and the remainder given prison sentences.

COLLEGES ARE OPPOSED TO STUDENT BEING
Houston, Texas, Feb. 22—The Southern Athletic conference, composed of the following Negro College athletes, are: James Paul Quinn College, Samuel Houston, Texas College and Bishop College, at its last meeting Friday, March 16. The conference as vigorously discountening the disposition on part of devotees of college sports toward betting; and the committee committed itself to the policy of discouraging those in any way connected with the college athletics.
Moreover, the idea was suggested that concerted action among the schools of the conference in necessitated the formation of societies in these colleges Pecunionary steps looking to the forestalling or prevention of any definite tenuity in the conference, by unanimous consent of the conference membership which action was expressed in the form of a more formal constitution, and by unanimous consent in the by-laws defining requirements for eligibility of bona fide players. The construction or new facilities in an follows: That no student shall be considered a bona fide player who is not participating in any or all athletic sport participation in any or all athletic sports carried on within a classroom room work per week and has a passing grade in not less than two-thirds of the subjects carried on. A place on a conference team must in the case of football, enter college on or before October 15th; and a place on a baseball, or on before February 15.
Another question which came up for discussion in this connection was the encouragement of students to leave one college and enter another for the obvious purpose to taking part in the course. The student to enter this offense so unsuitable that it was deemed worthy of some action; wherefore the following obligatory action was taken: lated into the article on by-laws relating to being fide players: No more course of some course of the institution from which he withdraws shall be considered obligible or allowed to play in the college school until he has been a student of such school at least one year of course, he has been acquainted with the college formerly attended within that time, which condition makes him eligible to play in the college or inhibits Owing to the difficulty and dissatisfaction experienced in providing for the various contests, the conference approved a list of men whose knowledge of the games would contend for, and aced upon favorably by the conference as follows

ONLY FIFTEEN STATES FREE FROM LYNCHINGS.
Statistics Show Rate of Mob Violence on Increase,
Washington, Feb. 22. — (Crusader Service) Only fifteen states have been free from lynchings in the last decade and race relations of the Federal Council of Churches of Christ in America declared today in an analytic lynching statistics from 1886 to 1931. Of these, no lynching has ever been reported in Rhode Island, New Hampshire, or Vermont, the statement said, and none has been reported since 1889. The lynching is not a teethtreat. The other states with a "clear record" in the last ten years were Nevada, Colorado, Iowa, Wisconsin, Indiana, Delaware, and Pennsylvania.

It added that the annual rate of lynching declined slowly and the number of lynchings in 1908, increased in that year and the next, and then fell of until 1909, when the tendency again turns upward.

Oklahoma, Chio, Feb. 22.—Consternation in the minds local School has grown in recent years, "now that the smoke of scandal in the local School has blown over.

Thus a velled suggestion has been conveyed that the child tries hard, but that there is no need for it. Leaders with their ears close to the ground has long sounded the training that an effort to introduce the new curriculum in Cleveland, Considerable fear was felt when Dr. Spauling, now at University Dr. E.

Cleveland, Ohio. Feb. 24. —County officials have a wry smile on their faces, and they are wreaking their brains for a legal way to "even up" with a Colored understaker who "cleaned up" the tune of several thousand dollars. Edward R. Brandon, who lived in poverty, died about one year ago after a stroke. The county left no heirs and the county auditor claimed that this entire estate after funeral and other occurrences was the state to be credited to the county school fund. But. understaker R. Brandon did not agree with the county auditor. Roger provided the dead man with a $749 bronze coffin, and a monument for $2,200.
