Denver Star

The Denver Star Has The Largest Circulation Among Colored People. Get Wise and Advertise The Denver Star ESTABLISHED 1888 Everyone to Protect Himself. Big Mass Meeting. Men, Women and Children Come. Pack Shorter. To the Colored Citizens of Denver: and formulate plans to defend your manhood and womanhood rights. I therefore, on behalf of the Colored Protective League of Denver, invite every colored citizen, every minister and his congregation, every secret or fraternal society, every woman's club, and every organization of any kind among our people, to be present and take part. Let us appeal to the City Commissioners who have the power to suppress such photo plays as the "Birth of a Nation", and let them know that we know that the taxes we pay entitle us to protection against proscription, persecution, denial of civil rights, and from the disgraces constantly heaped upon us. W. B. TownsEND President, The Colored Protective League. I concur in the above call, A. W. Lewis, President of the Colored Citizen League. I concur in the above call, Geo. W. Gross, President of the N. A. A. C. P. THE SLANDEROUS FILM CONDEMED BY SOUTHERNERS Discussion of The Birth of a Nation still continues. The Knickerbocker Press, Albany, N. Y., calls it editorially: A movie that lies. The Rev. D. C. Milner, writing to the Chicago Evening Post, says: A riot is reported in Philadelphia, caused by the exhibition of the Birth of a Nation. A number of colored people were arrested. When the intense feeling of the Negroes against this most slanderous caricature of their people is considerate, it is remarkable that there have not been many riots. The Birth of a Nation is a cruel slander of a weak and helpless race. It is a cowardly attack upon a people who are not strong enough to hit back. It is unfortunate that the mighty genius of D. W. Griffiths, the producer of the picture, has not been employed to better purpose. Major Charles Young has been conducting a school for cadets in Liberia, Africa. Several young men, some of great promise, have already been graduated. Jersey City.—A new racial enterprise which will probably assume large proportions is the Frederick Douglass Film Company, organized in New Jersey by some of the leading Negro citizens, with $100,000 authorized capital stock. To the Colored Citizens of Denver: Let me exhort you, that if you would be men, if you would be respected and have your families respected, and protected from insult, you will come to a mass meeting of the Colored Citizens, Tuesday night, at Shorter's Church Birth of Nation Must Not Show In Denver. Klu Klux to be Born in Colorado. South Pushes Jim Crowism and Klu Klux Plays North and West. Will Colorado be like Carolina, Home of Ben Tilllman? NEGROES PACK SHORTER TUESDAY NIGHT AT MASS MEETING When General Grant took his seat in 1869 he ordered at once an investigation of the Ku Klux Klan. The testimony before the Congressional investigating committee and before the United States courts shows plainly how these assassins, by their burning down schoolhouses, dragging men from their beds and slaying them, perpetrating all kinds of violence, caused all the North and the whole civilized world to cry out against them. Numbers of the Ku Klux were sent to the penitentiary, and then these assassins were disbanded just a short time after the reconstruction laws went into effect. Yet these assassins are the men that American audiences are glorifying in the drama, "Birth of a Nation." What does all this "lost cause" which will make you a better American citizen now mean and how will it operate in Denver. It means that every time a Negro school boy on the playground happens to be polite, courteous or smile in the direction of a white girl. Birth of a Nation suggests that this boy wants to marry this white girl. It means that every white girl and boy who see the play but who are too young to know the real true facts in the present and past history of the South, will look upon the Negro school boy or girl and girl through a different light. They will not want to sit by them in school nor will they want to be in the same room with such criminal beasts. Hence at the first opportunity and at the least provocation a fight, which will ultimately mean separate schools. Upon the streets, if a refinely educated Negro woman happens to drop her handkerchief or any article, Birth of Nation of Nation and lost cause suggest this Negro does this to attract some white man's attention for some immoral purpose and to see this play and follow the lost cause will make a better American of you. If the woman be a mullato or quadroon the evidence is conclusion. If a Negro man happens to accidently jostle against a white man on our crowded and congested streets, Birth of Nation and lost cause say that the Negro wants to be impudent, insulting and abusive. In the street cars if a Negro pays his fare and sits down in same seat with a white woman, this photo play and lost cause suggest that Negroes Form Film Co. DENVER, COLORADO, SATURDAY, DEC. 4, 1915 this Negro is forcing his attentions upon and trying to socialize with this white woman. In the public stores where Negroes go to trade if Negroes in the rush and hurry of business attempt to push his way torward, Birth of Nation intimates the Negro is assassinating the freedom and maliciously abusing the liberty allowed him in Colorado. In the theatre and other public places of amusement and accommodation, if the Negroes get their rights Birth of Nation says we want social equality and intermarriage. So that that the washerwoman, the butler, the hired girls and other servants working in private families are closely watched and feared by the fathers, mothers, children and relatives lest the Negro men become bestial brutes and Negro women contaminate every white man she looks at, because Birth of Nation hints and pictures that Negro women's highest ambitions is to be a white man's concubine and that all Negro men are low, bestial rapists. Hence for the white men and wo- The Birth of a Nation really means the new nation that was born under the immortal Emancipation Proclamation of Abraham Lincoln, in the beginning of 1865. As written and staged by Tom Dixon, it means the nation born of the loins of the political, secret, oath-bound bands of assassins known throughout the Southern States as the Ku Klux Klan. The Klan began began in 1865, at Pulaski, Tenn., and expanded itself into a great federation of regulators, having 50,000 members in the state of Tennessee and 550,000 throughout the states then lately in the Rebellion. The entire South was name by them the "Invisible Empire" placed under the domination of Gen. M. B. Forrest who was called the "Grand Wizard." This was the same person who, as general of the Confederates at Fort Pillow, succeeded the Negro soldiers after their surrender at the battle. Each state was under a Dragon, each county under a Titan, and similar divisions under Grand Giants, Grand Empires, etc. These weird titles, taken from demonology, described the ghoulish and diabolical characters of these oak trees. ward the Klu Klux Clans organization to destroy these savage, bestial, treacherous, half human and half animal Negro men and women. Will it be a wonder if a white child who really did not know the truth, would refuse to play or sit down by his Negro friend because his parents belonged to a race of rapists? In the first part of the Birth of the Nation, you sympathize with the Negro, and in the latter part you hate him because his every thought is low carnal; every act, bestial, and energy look sensuous and immoral. It is not so much what is in the play that, but it is the damnable influence it leaves behind to spread and the seeds of lies it sows in honest unsuspecting hearts and minds. It finely makes enemies out of neighbors, creates doubts and suspicion where none heretofore existed, tears down the law and directs lawlessness it glories in racial differences, disputes and conflits. It magnifies influences and aggragates little mistakes or misdoings into crimes and heinous offences; it poisyns the pure waters of justice with the causes of prejudice, destroys the staff of right doing and right thinking and makes not violence the standard of good citizenship. Can Denver afford to play with this not spirit fire, violence and destruction especially after experiencing the late miner's trouble? Yet this money shark in the daily papers advertises to see such vicious films will make better Americans of you. A true American will give all people a chance for a respectable living to which their patriotism and valor entitle them. He will encourage them in the race for success and will let Genii, Hydras' Turies, Gobbins, Nighthawks, Magi, Monks and Turks. Their lodges were called dens, their members were called ghouls, and, like ghouls, they peopled graveyards, burned down schoolhouses, homes and killed innocent men, women and children at midnight. They had constitutions, rituals and secret orders. It did not drive Negroes from the polls, for the Negroes did not vote in 1865, not for years afterwards. The Klu Klux Klan burned down Negro schoolhouses, assassinated Negro teachers and other prominent Negroes who were struggling for the upbuilding of their race. These assassins, with their night patrols, midnight paradss, wearing hideous masks, carrying skulls and sacks rattling with bones, claiming to be spirits of dead Confederates just from Hell, issuing warnings of death and damnation to all who opposed them, were not a mythical illusion or creation, but were really bloody, death-dealing Confederates and their character and needs corresponded with the names they assumed. FIVE CENTS A COPY. them realize that they are a desirable part of our citizenship. He will help them help themselves. He will spread the doctrine of liberty among them and will sow seeds of patriotism and kindness in their hearts and in time of need the Nation as well as Colorado, can be certain of reaping a harvest of gratitude and devotion. The Birth of of Nation must not show in Denver. Get Busy. Ohio N. A. A. C. P. Acting. The Secretary of the Association has spent some time in Columbns, Ohio, where a determined effort was made by the business interests of the photo-play to secure, endorsements from colored people. It was represented that with certain eliminations the play would be acceptable. The advent of the Secretary with her intimate knowledge of the many battles that have been fought about this question was most fortunate and resulted in the colored people of Columbus regudiating any compromise and also any compromisers. The Governor of the State has assured our representative that the play will never appear in Ohio while he is in office. Word comes to us from St. Paul that the Mayor and the Council failed to ask the opinion regarding the production of "The Birth of a Nation," and the film was produced on October 23. In a week's time, however, the St. Paul Branch and its friends had secured the elimination of all of the "Gus' scene from the time the Cameron girl leaves the house for the spring until her brother finds her at the foot of the cliff; and all of the Lynch-Elsie Stoneman scene from the time Lynch proposes marriage to the return of Stoneman. Our correspondent, Mr. J. H. Sherwood, writes, "We feel that the forcible demonstration which was made will assure us respectful hearing from the Council on any protested subject in, the future." While the Boston Branch was unable to prevent the production of "The Birth of a Nation" In Boston, its vigorous and untiring battle against the picture bore fruit throughout the State. Springfield, West Springfield, and Lawrence, have refused to have the tattered form in which it ran in Boston. At a private exhibition before the Mayor and the Committee, the play was cut more than it has been anywhere that it has yet been exhibited. The following will give an idea of the eliminations made: 1. The so-called "smell" incident. 2. The library scene between Stonemason and Lydia Brown 3. Many of the offensive scenes between Stoneman and Lynch. 4. Every incident relating to Gus including the chase, the trial and the execution, although the girl was seen flying from someone and leaping to death. 5. The entire scene depicting the attempt of Lynch to force Stoneman's daughter in to marriage. 6. The offensive incidents in the Legislature. Church News CAMPBELL CHAPEL A. M. E.

The offertory was pleasing, total contributions for the week being about $60.00. Mrs. Lilly Hughes very effectively read the Thanksgiving proclamation. The music was appropriately rendered for the occasion. Few of us realize the danger of coughs and colds. We consider them common and harmless ailments. How- common and harmless. We desire to thank the ladies of the church and the friends for their efforts to make the Thanksgiving services, as well as the other features of the day's program, such a success.

Holds Musicale and Reception on Thirty-sixth Anniversary. Professor Pastor Penalver celebrated the thirty-sixth anniversary of his career as a teacher of music and orchestra leader in New York city with a musicale and reception, which was participated in by many of his old and new pupils in the new Central hall, 114-116 West Fifty-third street, New York, recently. A large and appreciative audience was present and enjoyed every number of the excellent program presented. The New Amsterdam Symphonic orchestra opened with an overture. The artists were Ford, violinist; Austin, cornetist; Donge and Allen, clarinetists; Riker, bass; Martin, bell and trap drum; Downe, cornetist; Grant, accompanist; Davis, pianist, and Beaumont, solo flutist. Miss Aurora Martinez, twelve years of age, gave on the piano an artistic rendition of Donizetti's sextet, which won applause. It was rendered with precision and mastery. Then Master Andrea Martinez, eighteen years of age, was introduced, and going to the piano, he executed the classical "Chansons des Alpes," to the great surprise and the admiration of the audience, which consisted of many veteran musicians and other professionals, who applauded vociferously at its conclusion. The next number was a "Cavatina" by Mr. George Davis of Nassau, W. I., which was rendered with expression and the touch of a master hand. Professor Penalver, accompanied by Mr. Carl, violinist and composer, rendered two violin pieces in which the old master showed that his hands have not lost their cunning, judging from the applause with which he was greeted when he left the stage. A selection from "Il Trovatore" by A. Martinez (Verdi) was rapturously applauded. The young man was accompanied by the New Amsterdam orchestra. The musical part of the performance was brought to a close with this number. Part 2 included an address by Mr. J. E. Robinson, city editor of the New Amsterdam News; presentation to Major Wandall and staff of the boy scouts of a loving cup, the gift of Professor Pastor Penalver as a token of approbation and encouragement of the discipline which boys should receive to make them useful and law abiding citizens. The reception and musicie was a pronounced success artistically and financially, and Professor Penalver was the recipient of the hearty good wishes of all his friends for many returns of the day so auspiciously and pleasantly celebrated.

New York City, Nov. 8, 1915. Mr. George G. Ross, 209 Kittredge Bldg., Denver, Colo. Dear Mr. Ross: ‘Thank you sincerely for sending me a copy of the “Denver Star.” I do not believe that I have any word to add. The exhibition in our church was a private one. No one was ad- mitted except by invitation, It was not given as a token of our approval but merely so that ministers them- selves could sce it and make their own conclusions. Surely if the pic- ture is as vicious as depicted, minis- ters would understand that and quick- ly draw right conclusions. If they had seen it, they could more certainly condemn it if thus convinced. They were under no obligations whatsoever to the producers of the play. If they had gone to the theatre for a free performance, that might have been true. I do not care to enter into any controversy. and so, though Dr. Brooks has written to every paper he could reach, I have thus far refused to answer it. My Negro friends in Denyer will remember how strongly I spoke out in their defense and the effort I made, which 1 believe you will personally recall, to help secure a church for them of our denomination. My whole life will count for more than any vi- triolic criticism that may now be poured out by one man. Because of your friendship I am venturing to write this frank, personal letter. With cordial regards, I am, Yours sincerely, CHRISTIAN S. REISNER. We know that Rev. ©. S. Reisner was the friend of the Negro and trust- ed that he was still, but sometimes association changes men’s former con- victions. We are glad to note that he is still on the Lord's side. DRAW IN THE NETS. ~ _ Good, honest, hard working citizens should not be humiliated and dis- graced for a few dirty dollars. Cry from housetops and fight to be men ea mead The city law says that it shall be unlawful Tor any person, persons or company to advertise, publish, pro duce, exhibit, or cause to be adver- lised, produced or exhibited, at any time, in any public place, or upon any bill boards, walls, fences, windows or by any advertising method or medi- um, within the City and County of Denver, any theatrical play, act, pic- ture, or picture show, lithographed drama, photo drama, or historical pro: ductions which are contrary to good order and morals and the public wel- fare, and which tend to reflect re- proach upon any race, or incite race hatred, or tend to stir up or engender race prejudice, or are calculated to disturb the public peace, or that shall represent, or purport to represent, any hanging, lynching or burning of any human. being. ‘Then follows the penalty We know that prejudice of class and race, injustice and oppression on this account and along these lines are as old as tribes, nations or states among mankind, ‘The history of man is civil society has been to a consid: erable extent the history of such pre- judice and maltreating by the strong: er against a weaker, The progress of what, for a better name, we ‘call civ- ilization has been largely the struggle of races and classes against oppres- sion, injustice, proscription, and then overcoming race and class diserimin- ation. Especially have races and classes of individuals been deprived of freedom, self government and equality of rights. Human progress has been written in terms of the struggles, the fights, which oppressed races and classes have been made with ultimate success to secure to the individuals thereof freedom and equal rights with the individuals of the dominating races or classes. Human beings have been shown to possess an instinct for liberty and a passion for free and equal governments. The people with these aftributes are rated the highest and are the most respect- ed. This is a true American, but the Birth of a Nation advertises that when you see Negroes burned, lynch- ed, mistreated and made to crawl “on his belly like a dog,” like Gus in the photo plays, that these sights will make better Americans out of you. ‘The money sharp who sells and spreads racial prejudice wants condi- tions in Colorado like they are in Car-| olina, He wants the “lost cause” to triumph in North, West and East, as it has in the South, In other words, this American conscienceless money shark wants the Northern, Western and Eastern white men to hate and oppress the Negro as he is hated, burned, lynched and mistreated in the South.” Will Colorado. stand for it? Cut out his objectionable scenes like they did in St. Paul, Minn., and Bos- ton, Springfield, West Springfield and Lawrence, Mass., completely barred this vicious film, even in the tattered form in which it ran in Boston, In ‘New Haven, Conn., the play was cut io pieces. ‘The law is full, plain and explicit.

OWLS asked Combination NCE HONORED MEMORY AND DEEDS OF DR. B. T. WASHINGTON. Memorial services in honor of the late Mr. Booker T. Washington were held at Shorter A. M. E. church last Sunday afternoon at 2:30 o'clock. Long before the appointed hour the auditorium was crowded with those who had come to do the memory of this great man honor. Never before in the history of Denver have her citizens turned out in such large numbers, complimentary to the achievements and endeavors of a Negro. The principal address was delivered by Mr. Geo. Gross on "Dr. Washington, the Modern Moses." His eulogy was a masterpiece of eloquence and oratory. Dr. Washington, a product of Hampton, as a scholar, as a leader, and the builder of Tuskegee, was discussed by Mrs. A. M. Ward, Messrs. T. J. Bell, secretary of the Y. M. C. A., J. W. Jackson and A. W. Lewis, respectively. Judge W. B. Townsend gave an address on Dr. Washington's political influence on the nation and his loss to the nation and as a Christian was discussed by Miss Nelsine Howard and Rev. D. E. Over. Mr. Morrison's orchestra furnished the music for the occasion. Vocal solos were very creditably rendered by Messrs. Y. S. Reid and Virgil Wolfskill. Mr. Geo. Morrison, Denver's favorite violinist, rendered a violin solo, accompanied by Miss Jessie Andrews, pianist of Morrison's famous orchestra. The congregational singing was directed by Miss Jennie Hicks, chorister of Shorter A. M. E. choir. The Star congratulates the Ministerial Union, under whose auspices the meeting was held, on the success of this most excellent service. The Tuskegee students were given seats of honor. Owing to the illness of Rev. Jas. Washington, president of the Union, the meeting was presided over by Rev. Price, secretary of the Ministerial Union. Dist. Supt. James N. Wallace of Birmingham, Ala., writes that he has recently purchased a lovely five-room bungalow at a cost of $2,150 at 117 West 8th Ave., and invites all of Colorado to visit. The Reverend is gradually but surely making good. Congratulations. Pain is a visitor to every home and usually it comes quite unexpectedly. But you are prepared for every emergency if you keep a small bottle of Sloan's Liniment handy. It is the greatest pain killer ever discovered. Simply laid on the skin—no rubbing required—it drives the pain away. It is really wonderful. Mervin H. Soister, Berkeley, Cal., writes: "Last Saturday, after tramping around the Panama Exposition with wet feet. I came home with my neck so stiff that I couldn't turn. I applied Sloan's Liniment freely and went to bed. To my surprise, next morning the stiffness had almost disappeared; four hours after the second application I was as good as new."

Phone Main 7702] JACK JOHNSON ONE OF THE GREATEST MEN EVER LIVED. (By B. F. Chambers.) There are a class of Negroes in America who are always willing and ready to grasp an opportunity of seeing the low side of life rather than the high elevating side and are nothing more than parasites to those members of their race who strive to make a high and intelligent mark in life. Especially is this true in the case of Jack Johnson, who is recognized by the leading people of Europe, such as the kings, queens, dukes and lords, as one of the smartest and greatest men who ever lived. But Johnson, like all other great Negroes of our race who have passed away, will only be given credit for his great skill and wonderful genius by his or the Negro race after he is dead. I wish to call your attention to an article direct from the English government, which goes to prove that Johnson is even greater today than ever before during his fight. Although he elevated the scientific prize-fighting to the highest stage of science, this profession is now inferior to his present and feature work in life. The article is as follows: Jack Johnson Gets Nine Recruits—His Wife Featured in Oyster Dance. Glasgow, Nov. 29.—Four thousand people blocked traffic in Queen street for a half hour today while Jack Johnson made a recruiting speech. He drove his big motor car to the Royal exchange, removed his big white hat, showed his plentiful display of gold teeth, told how he had given two of his own motor cars to the government and urged every strong man to enlist. He was introduced by Corporal Baker of the Scotch Rifles, clad in khaki, and the result of his speech was nine recruits. British actors are frequently making recruiting speeches from the base of the Nelson column in Trafalgar Square, London, but an American prize-fighter securing nine recruits for Kitchener's army in a Glasgow openair meeting is a novelty. not altogether destroyed in interest by the fact that Johnson is appearing in a local music hall this week in a "revue." Incidentally his wife is placarded as "America's most beautiful and versatile artiste, the originator of America's greatest craze, the oyster dance." The second article is a clipping from a Nevada paper which was published the next day after the great Reno victory, which I had the measure of seeing and which also goes to show the great flow of racial blood that flows through his veins. This ought to be an example for every member of the colored race. The article is as follows, by Otto Floto: Reno, Nev.—It was a well-known fact that up to and within a couple of days before the Johnson-Jeffries fight there was something "rotten in Denmark." All sorts of rumors were in the air and it was generally conceded that "Johnson was to lay down." Mind you, Jeffries at no time knew this, nor was he a party to any deal of this kind. Certain parties close to him took it upon themselves to act without his sanction. The very best evidence that Jeff knew nothing or any arrangements of this kind was when on the morning of the fight he refused to consider Johnson's offer to "split the money." When the proposition was taken to Jeffries he absolutely refused to listen to it and it took the hardest kind of work on the part of his friends to force him to agree to a 60 and 40 per cent agreement. I ran across a can who was closely connected with Johnson and other interests at Reno and he told me the following story the other morning: "Do you know," he said, "that I went to Johnson the Saturday before the fight and offered him $150,000 to allow Jeffries to win and he turned me down. That's what he did, and all this talk that $10,000 or $25,000 would have made him lose is rot. I figured that if Jeffries won the pictures would be worth a million more, and I went out to get Jack's consent and then would have sold my option to the picture people. But Jack wouldn't have it. I told him that glory was a fine thing, but it didn't buy beetsteaks or pork chops. I told him about that old saying that has been handed down for generations about "a bird in the hand being worth two in the bush." I called his attention to what an unpopular champion he would be and even tried to scare him by saying the white people would never let him win, but would kill him at the ringside. He listened attentively and then turned to me and said: "There are 30,000,000 niggers in this land that will go broke if I lose. Of course, a nigger hasn't got much use for money anyhow, and it might make little difference. Just the same those black people will always point back to one man of their race they couldn't reach with money and that's worth something. After I win tomorrow I will be king of all those niggers." My informant then said: "So I am to understand that you are going to do your best on Monday." He scratched his head and replied, "Yes." My informant then told his friends and that's where all the Johnson money came from just before the fight. I am pledged not to use his name, but if you are acquainted with Johnson, just ask him who sat on the long fence the other side of the barn at his training quarters in Reno, about the time I mention." RESULTS OF CO-OPERATION. How the Organization Society Helps the Masses in Virginia. Whenever all the colored people of a community unite earnestly in asking and working sanely and wisely for a needed improvement, whether it is a better schoolhouse, a manual training or cooking equipment, better teachers, better sanitation or anything else worth while, they usually get it. Scores of delegates at the recent third annual meeting of the Negro Organization society, which was held in Petersburg, Va., testified to this truth. Major R. R. Moton, commandant at Hampton Institute and president of the society, said in part: "The movement among colored people for better schools, better homes, better health, better farms, seems to have made an irresistible appeal to all the people of the state. Religious, benevolent, secret and educational organizations of every character have joined in this movement. Leading white people, including the officials of the Virginia boards of health, education and of charities and correction, have been most cordial in their support. "The state wide campaign for clean premises, clean homes and clean lives has received help and support little dreamed of. The two races have been brought together on the ground of common needs of humanity. We have given white people a chance which they have long desired—a chance to help the Negro without compromise or embarrassment. They have met us more than halfway. "I am most anxious that we shall continue to be sane and wise in what we do and say and not be swept off our feet by those who feel that the great problems of humanity can be solved by abusing those with whom we do not agree." Reports from delegates, including many women, showed clearly that hundreds of rural communities are waking up to the possibility of making genuine progress by having people work together for common economic and social interests, regardless of religious or fraternal affiliations. Ideas gathered at preceding meetings have been carried to distant rural districts and have been the means of doing much good. Professor J. M. Gandy, president of the State Normal school at Petersburg, who is the executive secretary of the Negro Organization society, reported that in one year over 45,000 people had been addressed on subjects relating to community improvement, 502 school terms had been lengthened, 604 school leagues had been reached, $340 had been given to five schools and that these small gifts had inspired the people to raise thousands upon thousands of dollars for their own schools. T. C. Erwin of Petersburg, the society's field agent, reported that 347 organizations and 643 individuals had become members of the Negro Organization society. Professor Erwin has been at work in thirty-eight Virginia counties. He has carried a message of new hope through organization to thousands of men and women. He has reached school improvement leagues in nineteen counties and has aroused the people to the necessity of practicing self help and working out a constructive plan. Dr. H. B. Frissell, principal of Hampton institute, paid a warm tribute to the achievements of Dr. Booker T. Washington. He declared that the Negro Organization society stood for three big ideas which had rare transforming power-co-operation, good will and service. Several hundred delegates attended the annual meeting and heard addresses by Mayor Cabanan and Professor James E. Shields of Petersburg, Rev. Dr. L. L. Downing, Roanoke; Professor S. C. Atkins, Winston-Salem, N. C.; W. T. B. William, Hampton institute; J. H. Binford, Jackson Davis, Ennion G. Williams, R. C. Stearnes and Miss Agnes D. Randolph of Richmond; Principal E. A. Long of Christiansburg, Dr. W. E. Atkins and Mrs. Janie Porter Barret of Hampton and many other white and colored speakers who are experts in community improvement. Liberal Gifts For Brooklyn Y. M. C. A. The Carlton avenue branch of the Brooklyn Young. Men's Christian association is conducting an energetic campaign to raise $15,000, the amount necessary to cover a gift of $85,000 with which to erect a $100,000 building. The campaign began Nov. 11. The amount received in cash and subscriptions up to Wednesday evening. Nov. 17. was $11,016.50. The largest amount subscribed by any one individual was $1,000, the gift of Frank H. Gilbert, one of Brooklyn's leading business men. Mr. Gilbert is a member of the committee of management of the association and is well known throughout the country as the registrar of the National Negro Business league, a position which he has held for many years. The association is quite confident of raising the required sum. Alabama's Champion Cotton Grower. One of the most widely known farmers of the south is Samuel McCall of Alabama. Mr. McCall grows more cotton to the acre than any other farmer, so it is said. The average production of cotton is two-fifths of a bale to the acre, but Mr. McCall grows three bales to the acre, and one year he produced eight bales per acre. He is known as the champion cotton grower. Bar Association Honors Scratchin. The Beltrama Bar Association of Bemidji, Minn., recently elected Attorney C. W. Scratchin vice president of the association. This honor came to Lawyer Scratchin solely on his merit as an attorney and man of splendid attaintments.
