Denver Star

The Denver Star Has The Largest Circulation Among Colored People. Get Wise and A The Denver Star ESTABLISHED 1888 The papers formerly known as The Statesman and The Independent, have been merged into The Denver Star TWENTY-SIXTH YEAR Number 112 DENVER, COLORADO, SATURDAY, NOV. 13, 1915 FIVE CENTRE A COPY sewing the Ocean but the writer's hair was the only drawback. Meet It at the Gap cannot fail to be harmed It is also true that the Leaving the plateau and a long distance ahead, the train begins the ascent of the main range of the Cascade by a serpentine route, disclosing a wonderful view of the surrounding country. Much water is passed, a score of canons are penetrated by the train, and at last timber line is almost reached as Mount Shasta rises up first on one side of the track and then on the other until the very backbone of that loftly mountain stands out grand and vigilant, the isolated, as a monumental landmark over mountain and plain. One who has ever witnessed hundreds of wild soda springs rushing down the mountain side and that wheel turned everlastingly by water power, can never forget how good God must have been to California. From this vantage point practically the entire state of California is under your view with field glasses. Enroute and long before reaching the summit of this historical guardian of the placid Pacific, the scenery that has made many other side trips of California famous is spread out below you and long after many other scenic attractions have blended or passed from your memory, the soda water and the rushing and gushing Shastsa Springs will still claim your attention and always be a satisfactory event in your trips. Who can forget the effects of a California, Oregon, Washington or Idaho forest fire among the tall timbers? Passing through Medford and thence thru Ashland, Oregon's last city, we came into California and the warm mild climate, the beautiful scenery, the blossoming flowers and verdant field of grain, easily told you of the change. Thence to Sacramento and at 6:30 a.m., we were on Oakland pier and in a short time both sections of our train were on the Southern Pacific ferry, which crossed the bay to San Francisco. We soon landed and found that the Key Route would put us in two blocks of Samuel Cook's house, 1105 Kirkham street, our old Shorter friend and Denver citizen. All the party of five attacked his house and it surrendered without resistance and the following Denverites sat down to breakfast; Sister Thenis Stewart, Mrs. L. Gilbert, Mrs. Williams, Mrs. Ella Cook's mother; Mrs. Cook, the hostess, and Messrs Capt. Johnson, Geo. D. Hall, Chas. A. Burton, Father F. T. Bruce, Atty. Geo. G. Ross, Samuel Cook, Mrs. Cora Simth, Misses Pearl and Eva Jones and Mrs. A. E. Holley. Never has so much real enjoyment been witnessed, when everybody made a speech on Colorado. As one enters Oregon his mind is forcibly attracted with the association of the mighty oak, the lonesome pine and the silvery, wavering ash, the logging incline extending from the top of the mountains to the base and lumbermen's camps on the slopes of the hills and mountains. The scenic wonderland as it follows the bend of the deep blue Columbia river, and the beautiful sight in the distance of the snowcapped Mt. Hood, St. Helens and Mt. Adams; all these scenes make Oregon one of the special beauty spots of earth. Portland is a thriving up to date city, the oldest and largest of the northwest cities. Its streets, business buildings and dwellings all reflect standards, which have been developed in new life in the past decades. The foundations of Portland were laid 62 yeats ago and since that time its development has been continuous. At Portland we visited the Golden West Hotel, a hostelry operated by a man of color who pays $1,000 per month rent and who does good business all the time. It is a rendezvous for railroad men. Our "Denver Colony" in Oakland is and has been loyal to our state, and all sav, there is warm spot still in their hearts for old Denver. The hungry crowd ate Mrs. Cook out of house and home, destroying four pans of hot buttered biscuits, with sixteen bis (Continued next Week) Viewing the Ocean From the Coast Line. (Continued From Last Week) was given an auto-seeing Seattle trip by the Odd Feilows and Firemen (white.) We wonder if Daddy Bruce or George Hall who attended Queen Esther Temple No. 6, in company with Mesdames Ophelia Heck and Blasingame will ever forget "Seattle Ice Cream Goodbye at the Depot." Across the sound and high upon the plateau stands Tacoma, a sentinel in rugged majesty, serene and bold bidding defiance to earthquake, wind, water and sky. Her street cars travel at an angle of 35 degrees up hill of which the whole city is composed. De Junis Ogburn, who now lives at 4324 Forestville avenue, Chicago, Ill., was visiting Tacoma with his wife. Mr. Ogburn was Mr. Chester Franklin's former printer and a popular Denver young man. Portland claimed John Leftridge, John Quarrels and Wm. Lomax, all of whom were Denverites and are doing well. We can never forget how kind Dr. Merriam and his good wife were in taking care of Father Bruce, who was slightly affected with a cold. The doctor is a good mason and doing good business. Thru out the northwest, no discrimination is shown, the money is the idol, and the Jap, the Chinamen and foreigners have excellent business and very often Negroes (in Denver) have become for financial gain, Jap, Italians, Spainards, or some kind of an Oriental. All is necessary is some lingo. A thought struck our party, that we pass for the novelty, Meet It at the Gap Denver Negroes Must Become Active. Your Houses are on Fire and You are Asleep. Organize to Meet Injustice. Crisis Impending. Mr. Negro do you know that your house of liberty, justice and equality is on fire? Do you know that your bread and butter is threatened by the presentation of that race hybrid play, "Birth of a Nation?' Do you want to be treated like a dog, snarled at, and have the wrong impression go out that you are bestial, dishonest and criminal after you have lived in Denver 25 years? Will you stand idly by and let a stranger, money shark come into Denver, and right in your own home town, where you have lived, labored and given your life's best toward the full development in civic morals and municipal pride, and without vehement protest and a fight to the last ditch, create wrong impressions of you and yours, and then reap his dirty dollars and cents gained through poisonous race hate? May every nickle divide in two parts, and each part multiply itself ten times in trouble, sorrow, pathos, woes, disadvantage. contumely and heartaches which this money shark and all his followers may cause the Negro in the United States. And for every drop of blood spilled already or may be spilled by the Negro, may ten be drawn from his family and tribe. So far only three Negroes have asked to be present at the private presentation of this hell play. Where are Ministers, Women's Clubs, G. A. R. men and women, business and professional men, in fact ANY KIND OF MEN—real men I mean? Let us all unite, meet it at the gap and there put the quietus on it before it enters the city. January 1st and during the whole month it is to be at the Broadway or Tabor. Negroes of Denver and Colorado you house is on fire. GET BUSY! DENVER, COLORADO, SATURDAY, NOV. 13, 1915 Hon. Harry C. Smith, Dear Sir—It devolves upon me as a member of the Ohio Board of Censors to render my individual decision as to whether or not the film, "The Birth of a Nation" should be approved or rejected. Many protests have been brought to our attention from sources that indicate that the entire Colored race and those especially interested in their advancement seriously object to said film. Governor Frank B. Willis has repeatedly called the attention of the Board to the fact that many protests against this film have been entered in his department. He has also repeatedly requested that this Board give said film very careful attention, and if it should be found to be of such a character as to reflect upon the colored Race and tend to arouse racial hatred and prejudice, as claimed, he has urgently recommended that we reject the same. On the other hand, the owners of said film have filed quite a number of recommendations praising this photo-play. It is claimed by many reputable individual citizens that said film ought to be exhibited because of its dramatic and historical value. It is urged that it is the most gigantic production from the standpoint of cast and spectacular achievement the film industry has yet produced. After having very carefully considered the arguments pro and con, and having closely inspected said film as well as discussed the merits of the same with other members of this Board (who have equally considered all matters pertaining to the same), I now render my decision, looking to the things portrayed in the film itself. It will not be disputed but that it has a great dramatic value and is stupendous from the standpoint of camera achievements. On the other hand, by no stretch of the imagination can we get away from the fact that it reflects unfavorably upon the colored Race. The entire latter half of said film is devoted to scenes and subtiles portraying colored men engaged in all sorts of vicious conduct towards the whites of the South during the Civil War and the Reconstruction Period following. There are many mob scenes where Negroes are in the most repelling way attacking white citizens, and scenes where Negro men are forcing their attentions upon white women and are engaged in all sorts of ridiculous and knavish conduct; not only as individuals, but as a race. True, they were in many instances led by what the film terms "scalawag carpet-baggers"; but this only further reflects upon the government of that period. While the picture is based upon some historical facts, many phases are exaggerated in such a way that the child unfamiliar with the real facts of history, upon viewing the film would immediately conclude that the result of the Civil War was the greatest crime in the annals of history, rather than the prevention of human beings being driven by the lash and sold upon the auction block. The entire film would seem to proclaim the very doctrine which it cost half a million lives and billions of dollars to eradicate. It is claimed that the film should not be objectionable because of the time that has elapsed since the period when these episodes were supposed to have taken place. With this I cannot agree. Many soldiers of the Civil War are still living, both in the North and in the South. This film cannot but open the wound of ill feeling between them and their offspring. Not only does it rekindle the feeling of sectional hatred but it strongly tends to arouse hatred and prejudice among the coming generation against a race living in our midst. 100,000 of whom are in the State of Ohio. Too, there are eight millions of this Race in the United States; and since the constitution of of the United States guaranteed them equal rights and having taken oath to support this constitution, I consider it wholly unwise, unjust, dangerous and harmful to officially approve a film that reflects upon them and recites hatred toward them, retarding them in their progress, as this film does. The play also represents the Ku Klux Klan in such a manner that their conduct would be applauded. It tends to justify thas organization in capturing the Negroes and, as masked vigilance committees, trying them at night, convicting them and placing their bodies at the doors of state officials who sympathized with their cause. Without discussing the justification of their methods of that day, the same spirit that urged their activities at that time is the same that prompts such appaling conduct in recent times as to cause Negroes to be lynched, making the lynching day a day of celebration. The same spirit prompted masked men to take Leo M. Frank from the custody of the law and execute him. Films which present scenes of this character in a manner which to the onlooker seems to be justified FIVE CENTS A COPY. It is also true that there are a few scenes on the end of the last reel of said film that show the colored Race in a favorable light. But to my mind, after considering all that has gone before, it is similar to forcing a very nauseating concoction down the throat of a man and then giving him a grain of sugar to take the taste out of his mouth. Again, the objectionable features above described including the plot, scenes and sub-titles are so inter-woven throughout the entire film that I consider it impossible to eliminate said objectionable matter. My individual decision, therefore, is that said film should be rejected in its entirety. The "Birth of Nations" is a lie! Its brutal attack against the order, dignity and peace of law-abiding communities is everywhere evidenced. Mr. William H. Gaston of St. Paul, Minn., makes this point clear in his letter to the St. Paul Dispatch, which reads as follows: To the Editor of the Dispatch: The "Birth of a Nation" in the near future is to appear at the Auditorium in our city. The purpose of this play is to Southernize the North. It is the most subtle effort to imbue the spirit of Ku Kluxing Night Riding, and all the abominable lawlessness of the Southland. The Southerner of the Thomas Dixon type has succeeded in poisoning the minds of thousands of our Northern people. Why should the people of the North permit the minds of their young to be poisoned to lawlessness. anarchy and mob violence against an already despised and oppressed people? This play is a product of the brain that believes that the white man is more honored through disrespect and hatred toward the man who has been robbed and oppressed for more than 200 years. The author is imbued with that same spirit that would have during the years from 1861 to 1865, torn our flag out of the blue heavens and dashed our nation asunder. The brain that produced this play would glory in all the vileness that could be heaped upon the unprotected Negro girl, and would sanction the execution of the male members of the Negro race without jury, judge or law. Will the Southerns be permitted to spread their infectious disease of lawlessness and crime among the people of the North? Do we wish our people of the North to possess the spirit of such Southern men as Blease, Vardaman, Tillman and Watson? Remember, the Negro even in his own good state is to the disadvantage of being voiceless in an official way. Church News CAMPBELL CHAPEL A. M. E. CHURCH, CORNER 23RD AND LAWRENCE STS. REV.

We present to interested Bible students the Bible class in connection with the People's Presbyterian Sabbath school, where researches are made every Sabbath morning for half a hour, from 10 to 10:30, in Bible study. The class is growing weekly. The verdict of the scholars, among whom are some of the most eminent students of the Word, is that the lessons are instructive and inspiring. To be in line with all the progressive moves in the city along the line of religious activities, we once more enjoin on all our members and friends to make the sacrifice to attend all of the Sabbath services as well as the Wednesday night prayer and song exercises. The community is once more reminded that Thanksgiving services will be observed at this church at 11 o'clock Thanksgiving day. Dinner will be served by the ladies at the close of the services. A program will be the feature at night. The music for the occasion will be appropriate and inviting as usual. The members of the church are reminded of their special Thanksgiving offertory. We submit for pulpit treatment tomorrow two very interesting themes. The former is to expressly locate each of the ethic heads in history and religion and thus lay bare the false assumption that some people make with regard to monopolizing all of the good in both history and religion of the past and present. The evening sermon provides a comparison of program between the Christ and modern representatives of the Christ. Everybody is invited. PLEASANT GREEN BAPTIST MISSION, REV. C. A.

We know he has made three there and an excellent time was caretakers appointments and "one midnight gift" job, but Mayor Sharpley in one appointment in the health office recognized the Negroes' ability more fittingly. We wonder if, for some reason unknown to the Star, Commissioner Greenlee, who failed, neglected or refused to introduce the photo-play ordinance, thinks that he has fulfilled his obligation to the Negro. We do think Mayor Sharpley, who has proven by the interest he took in presenting the photo-play ordinance and seeing that it passed, that he is a friend of the Negro. Now, Mayor Sharpley, we believe (yes, we know) that you do not consider your promises made to the Negro fulfilled. Mayor, we are eagerly watching and waiting that you make one more of such appointments and the Star will feel that Mayor Sharpley can victoriously say with the Negro who supported the Mayor, "I came, I saw, I conquered," and made good. We await the Mayor's answer by his action. Denver, Colo., Oct. 26, 1915 To the Editor: Having had at least twenty inquiries last Saturday and Sunday, about the Fair held Oct. 15th and 16th at Dearfield, and why no mention was made of it in your issue of last Saturday, allow me to ask you a few questions for the edification of all concerned: Has it not been your custom to speak continuously upon Race Pride? Theh Uplift of the Negro Race? The Betterment of the Negro in America? The Patronizing of Colored Enterprises? Then may I ask you, as I have been continuously asked, why no mention of the Fair was given in your paper last Saturday? Yet, when ever a Prize-fight, dance, or some so-called "Social What-Not," is given there is a great space taken up about the said affair, the costumes worn, etc. Do we call these affairs the Uplifting of the Colored Race, and the Betterment of the Negro in America? No! By no means does this uplift the Race. Yet, when a few Negroes, who having colonized a strip of land, and are making good and are beginning to see their way to prosperity, endeavor to get together to show the citizens of Denver the real road to the Betterment of the Negro, and the Uplifting of the Race, by giving a farm exposition and securing special rates from the railroad to the said Fair, no mention is made of it in your paper last week, and no interest shown by a representative being sent from Denver t howse how the few members of the Race are progressing in Dearfield, Colo. To secure better Race Unity and help one another, let the people stick together as the citizens of Dearfield have, and then we can talk in good truth of Race Pride, Unity, Progress and the Uplift of the Negro Race We promised to publish the above letter and we did. We could write a caustic and sarcastic letter severely criticising Dearfield and be techincally right. We will not do so. The Star believes in self-preservation, but not to the full extent of giving as a reason for publishing or not publishing a communication of the fact that you do or do not take the Star. We believe Mr. Harvey Page, one of our veteran mail carriers, a high school graduate, a man of family, highly respected lodge man, a Christian gentleman, is honest in his statement intended for good. We plead guilty of advocating and urging race Unity, race pride, patronizing Negro busi, ness, better and more efficient workers among Negroes and even do we plead guilty of advertising Dearfield town lots for sale. We did it without pay and freely. But now because we happen not to "think a fair" what you and others thought a "fair" we have shattered race unity, killed race progress, chilled the patronizing of Colored enterprises and let race pride stand still. Publicity is what you or Dearfield or who in Dearfield wants? Would we have been justified in giving four columns of write up of that fair, when, as we are informed, there is not one self-supporting farm owned by Negroes in the village Mr. Page, the Star believed that your little "miniature fair or display of farm prod."

If it meant politics, then you cannot succeed that way whether Democratic or Republican. Do you get why we were silent? We hope Dearfield will wake up. We raise this question because Mr Page (who fails to mention any one personally of the twenty) is forgetful of the fact, that there are as many different opinions of men and things, as there are men who think. And while he seemed grieved about our not mentioning the industrial event or dig down deep into our pockets, pay our hard Denver cash to "see" this industrial upheaval without a chance to get immediate action on our cash, yet business sagacity, keen competition and other reasons sternly dictate a wiser course. Lastly, Mr. Page, our failure to mention the "fair" will not stop a blade of grass from growing, one field of hay from being garnered and the sun will kiss the sandy loam of Dearfield yet. The Star encourages the idea of farmers getting together for industrial purposes and other purposes but the Star believes in calling a spade a spade. Politics and politicians should take the medicine of the game. Now, don't you think so, Mr. Page? CITY NEWS. BE PRESENT AT THE "Y" OPENING.

ROSS, Plaintiff's Attorney SOJOURNER TRUTH HOUSE. National League Successes In Founding Home For Delinquent Girls. New York.-At the meeting of the board of directors of the Sojourner Truth House, which was held recently in this city. Miss Eva G. Burleigh was elected superintendent and Mrs. Lola Johnson Guerst matron of the home. The institution comes as a part of the new work of the National League on Urban Conditions among our people. The Sojourner Truth House will be located at 15 West 131st street. The house has been renovated from top to bottom, steam heat installed and new decorations placed upon the walls of the rooms. The committee in charge of the home has been incorporated under the laws of the state of New York with the full sanction and approval of the state board of charities and the Judges of the children's court. It is not the plan of this institution to receive full or final commitments from the court or the department of charities, but this institution is to be a home where no more than twelve girls may be received voluntarily and where their needs and characters may be carefully studied, so that each case may be cared for and disposed of by the proper authority to the best interest of each child. The officers of the committee are Mrs. George W. Seligman, president, and Mr. E. K. Jones, secretary. The idea of a suitable home of this kind has engaged the attention and efforts of the officials of the National league for several years. The outcome is therefore a matter of much satisfaction at this time.

Whatever may be the cause—"that children have worms is a fact." Your child's peevishness and irritability has a cause. Give Kickapoo Worm Killer a chance and if worms are there this humanly, harmless remedy will eliminate the annoying parasites. 25c a box.

Phone Main 7702 NEW BOOK BY DR. DU BOIS. Home Library Issues Valuable Work by Noted Scholar and Publicist. The little volume entitled "The Negro," written by Dr. W. E. B. Du Bois, editor of the Crisis, and issued by the Home University Library of Modern Knowledge, is the most scholarly and accurate book on the Negro race in early times in Africa that has yet been written. The author treats his subject in logical order from the beginning of the race in Africa, through the years of its meandering as tribal inhabitants crude and unlettered, through the slave trade to high culture and refinement. Dr. Du Bois is very sure of the fact that there are no definite lines of separation for the various races. The backwardness of the black race in Africa the author attributes to the fact that the interior of Africa did not furnish sufficient protection from invasion, as is true of those in the Nile valley or in Europe. As to Negro culture in Africa, the book shows that at the time when Columbus was discovering America a full blooded black, Mohammed Askain, was ruling over an empire as large as all Europe. On his pilgrimage to Mecca he was accompanied by "a brilliant group of scholars and holy men, with a small escort of 1,500 soldiers and $9,000,000 in gold. He stopped and consulted with scholars and politicians and studied matters, of taxation, weights and measures, trade, religious tolerance and manners. The University of Sankore became a center of learning in correspondence with Egypt and north Africa and had a swarm of black Sudanese students. Law, literature, grammar, geography and surgery were studied." The chapter on "African Culture" tells of the achievements of African Negroes as workers in iron, bronze, copper, wood and pottery, recalling that "Schweinfurth, Von Luschan, Boaz and others inline to the belief that the Negroes invented the smelting of iron and passed it on to the Egyptians and to modern Europe." All this was swept away by the slave trade, says Dr. Du Bois, who estimates that every slave imported to America cost "five corpses in Africa or on the high seas" and that the American and Arabian raids together meant the death, expatriation or forcible migration of at least 100,000,000 natives. "And yet people ask today the cause of the stagnation of culture in that land since 1600!" Dr. Du Bois pays a glowing tribute to the Negro race in America in the last two chapters of his book. He believes that the fifteenth amendment to the federal constitution is our bulwark of protection and lauds the many spirit and courageous action of our people during the reconstruction period following the close of the civil war. The book should be in every home for the instruction and inspiration which it is sure to give to the youth of the race. BUTLER GETS SCHOLARSHIP. New York Musical Settlement School Encourages Thrifty Yankers Lad. Yankers, N. Y.-Master Willie H. Butler of this city, the clever boy violinist, has been given a scholarship in the Musical Settlement school in New York city and will train under the celebrated David Mannes, who thus acknowledges his gratitude to the Negro race, he having been taught the violin by the famous Negro violinist of New York, Douglas, many years ago. It is a rare opportunity for young Butler, who comes from a musical fam- ALEXANDER WILLIE H. BUTLER. fly, every member of which performs on one or more instruments. The youngster is a musical genius and even now performs on the violin with a skill and technique which some older performers might well envy. Young Butler's father, who is an instructor in the Musical School settlement, will have general supervision of his studies, while Professor Mannes will give him the benefit of his wide knowledge of the king of instruments and the instrument of kings. Master Bill will probably need a little strap oil also before he reaches the virtuoso stage in his promising career, and his "dad" has provided one for use when moral sussion falls. "I predict a brilliant future for my young friend Bill," says Bruce "Grit." "and congratulate him on his good luck." Thomas J. Pillow's Work Appreciated. Thomas J.

M'ADOO ISSUES TIMELY WARNING Ex-Slave's Sult For Millions Has No Merit. United States Supreme Court May Dismiss Action Brought Against the Government by Attorney For Four Former Slaves to Recover $68,000,000. Case Creates Unusual Interest. Washington:—Secretary of the Treasury McAdoo has earned the everlasting gratitude of the colored people of the entire country. The latter part of October he released an official statement to the effect that there is no fund of $68,000,000 or any other sum in the treasury of the United States for exslaves or their heirs or for any other persons who worked in the cotton fields of the south. Secretary McAdoo thus sounds a timely note of warning that payments made by individuals to defray costs and expenses of suits against the government to recover any part of any such fictitious fund is a waste of money. This is intended to shut off the financial supply of promoters of the action against the government, who, it is said, have sent circulars broadcast over the land calling for contributions of $1.75 each from those who might be supposed to have an interest in pressing the claim. The record shows that suit was brought last July in the supreme court of the District of Columbia in the names of four persons—H. N. Johnson of Louisiana, R. Bowers of Texas, C. B. Williams of Mississippi and Mamie Thompson of Tennessee—for themselves and all others who have similar interests as plaintiffs, in which the secretary of the treasury of the United States of America is made defendant, the purpose of the suit being to have the sum of $68,000,000 pro rated and paid to claimants and all ex-slaves who helped to produce certain cotton or to their heirs. The cotton in question was produced by slave labor between the years 1850 and 1868 or the period between 1862 and 1868, and the $68,000,000 represents the internal revenue tax on the raw cotton under the law and is now held in the treasury among the general funds of the government. It is the view of the treasury department that there is no legal or just basis for the suit filed in the supreme court, and that it or any other suit brought for the same purpose will prove unfounded and fruitless. The treasury holds that the tax was collected lawfully, as determined by the courts years ago, and no one who is familiar with the law on the subject and the decisions of the courts thereon would think of bringing suit for the recovery thereof. Even if those who were slaves were entitled to compensation for their work, their claim would be against their former masters, and they would have no recourse at this late day against such masters or for the proceeds of the cotton produced by their labor. A contention that they could now collect anything for such service would be fraudulent and absurd. Secretary McAdoo explains this point at length because the statements of the promoters of the suit are liable to mislead persons unacquainted with the facts. Cornelius J. Jones of Memphis, Tenn. is chief counsel for the exslave claimants. He has been in this city recently and delivered a speech on the matters at issue. He made no attempt, however, to answer leading questions raised just after the filing of the suit. The Baltimore speech of Lawyer Jones was published in the Washington Bee. The treasury calls attention to a circular sent out by the said C. J. Jones purporting to give "instructions what to do to make claim to share in $68,000,000 sued for by persons who labored in the production of said cotton." The department has also received another circular issued by C. B. Williams of Clarksdale, Miss., which is headed "Make a Just Claim," embodying therein a copy of the bill of complaint filed in the court in Washington. When the suit was filed by Lawyer Jones in July he had associated with him former Judge E. M. Hewlett, a prominent member of the District bar. Judge Hewlett, in view of all the facts, has now made affidavit that his confidence has been abused and that he now sees no merit in the suit and, further, that in view of the statements made in the printed circulars put into circulation in the south advising the colored people to give money to conduct the suit, etc., he has withdrawn from the case. Judge Hewlett is a man of the highest standing, and his action is asserted to be an indication that an honest man cannot afford to be identified with the proceedings as conducted by the promoter in chief. The treasury warning concludes with the declaration that as the pending suit is against the secretary of the treasury it is a familiar law; that a suit of this nature is a suit against the government. It is therefore more than probable that the case will be dismissed by the court on a preliminary motion. The papers of the country published by our people should give Secretary McAdoo's plain and timely warning the widest and fullest publicity.

This auxiliary reaches our young folks, the race's greatest ux set. They have inaugurated what ix known ax Bible day demonstration This service takes place the third Sun @ay In June of every year, and the most characteristic feature about thix service is the entire state is divided up into districts, and there is a plice centrally located in each district. and the ‘schools meet in their respective churches, and the scholars, with Bible in hand, march tn a body to the zen eral meeting place in their district. ‘This makes quite an impression. It shows the world God's army out on ‘dress parade. They remlized $100 out of this service this year for mission Durposes, and. they donated $50 of this ‘amount to the Berean Baptist church a church that was struggling to kee): the meeting house from being sold cae auxiliary mised over $200 in tt /wexston. | Secondly, we must speak of our wo men, God bless them, for helping our convention to bear the cross and the burden and responsibility of givine the gospel to all men. The women's auxiliary holds its session the timt two duyn preceding the convention proper. We need not speak of the peace aud tranquillity among them, for it is well known that peace ts the crowning characteristic of the wom en’s convention, This auxiliary un. der the eficient leadership of Mrs. 8 D. Richardson, who bas been the pilot and gufding star of the woman's con vention for over eight years and has led er cohorts to see the dawn of a new day, and every woman in nearly every city, town, village and hamlet of the atate hns been inspired to higher thoughts and has been quickened to ureater zeal because of the new vision every one has had. They had their birth in the Holy ‘Trinity chureh four: teen years ago. In their session they raixed over $100, ‘The nddressen of welcome to the general convention were made by Judge Robert H. Roy in behalf of the borough, Rev. W. TH. Jones, B.D, in behalf of the Methodists; Dr. BOP Farnbam in behalf of the Baptists of Long Island and Master John Wooten in behalf of the eburch, ‘The conven tion felt Itself very much at home, and Piatt Bike | Se an AAS eereataedibha ag a ete highly commended. Itev. W. A. Camp- bell delivered the introduciory sermon from the subject “I Will Not Forsake You.” The Hev. A. C. Matthews, B.

Dr. R. C. Woods, president of Virginia Theological Seminary and College. the school that the convention has adopted to support, rade an ap- peal for education. in his appeal he told the convention that we ought to largely support a school owned and controlled by our people that stands for higher Christian education. Dr. J. E. Love, president of the New Jersey state convention and represent- ing the Northern university movement. laid ont the plans for the Northern university and urged the people to es- tablish in the north a university to train our young people. There wis an offering of $13.50 with several hundred dollars in pledges for this movement. Rev. J. W. Bright preached the mis- sionary sermon. Dr. L. G. Jordan made & plea for foreign missions. “The entire conventioh was inspired to do greater and more tangible work for the common cause of humanity when it was remembered that “the destiny of the Negro must be worked out right here in America.” Instead of dreaming about some distant Utopia, he must gird on his sword and fight down the obstacles which prevent him from coming into his own in this coun- try. “Exernal vigilance is the price of llberty.” The Negro must keep up the fight against all forms of discrimi- nation In this country on account of race. He must stand unalterably op- posed to everything that is un-Ameri- ean and unchristian.
