ESTABLISHED 1888 merly known as The TWENTY-SIXTH YEAR Number 135 LANDSLIDE SWEEPS SPEER IN MAYORS CHAIR. Speer Amendment For.....30,891 Against.....22,164 Majority for..... 8,927 Macy Amendment For..... 6,508 Against.....45,408 Majority against 38,900 Booth Amendment For..... 5,659 Against.....44,344 With a landslide vote, Commissigner of Safety Nisbet was ousted from office. The people plainly told him that they did not approve of his "Birth of Nation methods," at the same time sustaining the race. The race's fight has made a good impression upon all political parties. Nisbet was snowed in with a majority of nearly 40.000 votes cast against him and Booth. Leland, Miss—Ed Coleman a young and respectable race man, was taken from the barber shop where he worked by three white men and severely beaten, made to dance and then whipped till he could not walk. The cause of this brutal act was a race woman named Mammie Bidgood, who is alleged to be quite friendly with one of the whites. She became sore at coleman and had told the white men some untruths about him trying to insult her. The wounded man is in a serious condition and is under the care of a physician. mother died. Many Denver people were present at both occasions. He served very succesful seasons as pastor at Narragansette Pier. R. I. during summer seasons of 1914 15 and was appointed in September 1915 to take charge of a regular pastorate in Boulder, Colo. Since there, the work work has been organized and is in good condition. He has to his credit 12 conversions and admissions to probation and 8 admissions into full membership since last September. The future Mrs. A. W. Ward is the Miss Jeannette M. Green, eldest daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Wm. Greene, a graduate of the Sumner High School and of the State Normal College. For four years she has been preceptress in the Junior High School division of Douglass School of Kansas City, Kan. She is a native of Kansas. A wonderful future lay just ahead for both of these promising young people, Our Denver Y. M. C. B. and its foot ball team can never forget the "Ward" impress while acting as manager and secretary. A GOING UP THE HILL. Young Boulder Pastor Marries June First. A. Wayman Ward, the eldest son of Rev. A. M. and E. N. Crosby-Ward, was born and reared in Kansas. He soon became interested in athletics and literary affairs and graduated as valedictorian of the class from the Sumner High School, Kansas City Kan. in 1907. His ambitions to ascend the ladder of accomplishment and education forced him to take a college course in Denver University and in 1911 graduated among the first fifteen ranking students, receiving his A. B degree. While attending Denver U. he won "honorable mention" in Junior Senior oratorical contest in 1911; his class numerals in basket and A. WAYMAN WARD. foot ball and became an associate member of the Glee Club. Climbing another round in educational development, he graduated from Payne Theological Seminary of Wilberforce University in 1914 with the highest honors of his class and was president of the combined graduating classes of the University, when he received his "B. D." degree. At the same time he was president of the Y. M. C. A. and of the Preachers Asso cian, manager of the foot ball in 1912, 13 and 14, also of the University. He won his letter in basket and foot ball and acted as editor of the first Senior Annual "The Tawawa Remembrancer" as well as Senior Founder's Day Orator Stepping a little higher in life, he graduated from Yale School of Religion, Yale University in 1915 with the degree of "S. T. B." Scholarship was granted him by Yale for special work in Social Service. He was a member of the Alpha Phi Alpha, the eldest and largest Greek letter fraternity in the world and was its National delegate in 1914. Rev. Ward having been peculiarly fitted for religious work, was converted at the early age of twelve in Topeka. He was ordained to preach at Shorter Chapel in Denver in 1911 and became a deacon in Colorado Conference in 1912 at Cheyenne, Wyo. on that memorable Sunday, the day his Nisbet Spurned, Spurred and "Speered" by the People. Race Vindicated DENVER, COLORADO, SATURDAY, MAY 13, 1916 Insults Resented and Insulters Rebuked. Negroes Mass Votes and Elect Speer. Carlson Harpooned and Post "Speerized." Star Wins Fight for the Race. "The Birth of a Nation," that infamous photoplay, has returned to Los Angeles, Cal. sor a second long run, and the New Age, one of our race papers there, asks "have the Negoes of Los Angeles no race pride?" We have been trying for months to get an answer to the same question from the "Negroes" of Chicago where the miserable film has been run for many months without the shadow of an effort on their part being made to have dissolved the temporary injunction under which it is being exhibited. It looks as if many Los Angeles and Chicago "Negroes" are much alike in at least one respect. This is to be regretted and greatly deplored. IN TIMES LIKE THESE GOD GAVE US MEN Every Negro, true to his race and honor as a man and citizen and conscious of the vital importance of victory in this death grappling struggle for better consideration from his fellow citizens with shoulders together stood in solid phalanx all over this city, and cast a united vote Tuesday, one for all and all for one and elected Robt. W. Speer, Mayor of Denver. They condemned "Birth of Nation" Nisbet, resented insults offered by J. J. Vick Roy of the Booth Committee and refused to swallow their slurs and treachery. They did not apologize, justify not excuse and the Negro met them at the gap with their votes. The Negro had too much at stake for him to do otherwise than what he did. He can look the world in the face with an erected head and can withstand the most searching glance of an honest eye. To our noble and brave women all the credit and laurels of victory belong. Some were up working at 5:30 a. m. preparing their people, so they could vote promptly at 7 a. m. Never has the Star seen so much true loyalty, enthusiasm, self sacrifice, devotion, race pride, civic consciousness shown as was exhibited Tuesday at the polls. Negro men and women proudly and openly walked to the polling places, displaying fearlessly to the world, the way that they intended to cast their ballots. Not a Negro cringed nor dugged his duty. He did his full duty at the polls and the figures in Districts C. H. and T speak volumes for the work and workers as well as, for the voters. The Negro has unmistakably demonstrated that he did not intend to be insulted, double crossed nor discriminated against without a fight. God bless our brave men and noble women who have "sand enough in their craw" to stand out and fight openly all enemies who fight them. With our self respect defended, our racial pride protected, our women's honor and integrity preserved and our manhood sustained by forever putting a quietus upon such plays as "Birth of Nation", the Negro can well go back serenely yet watchfully to his daily toils and honorably discharge his duties as a citizen. Knoxville, Tenn.,—Gladys Thomas, a member of the demi monde and inmate of a house of ill-repute, was shot and killed by a white man she had refused entrance to the house. The murderer escaped in the confusion. The Thomas girl was from a highly respected family of White Pine: Tenn., and came to Knoxville to work. She went astray and became an inmate of a house which admitted both white and colored men. Des Moines, Iowa,—The city has been fighting the Birth of a Nation, but has not been successful in stopping the play. Just what movement the leaders of the Race men will take is not known yet, but they intend to fight the play to a finish if they have to take it before the Supreme Court. Despite the party lash wielded freely by some republicans, trying to hold the Negroes in line, also in spite of the activity of Governor Carlson and his employes in our city campaign and despite the fact that the yellow Post with its mud slinging batteries had used every available sewer accessory known to journalism, save that of race and color, and those were even pressed into service at last moment when it was known that Mayor Speer had 95 per cent of the Negroes to attempt to arouse a racial hate between the white and black by describing and featuring Mayor Speer, as a big burly black Zulu with some little Zulus, attending him - despite all of these offsets, the real people of Denver adopted the Speer Amendment which, in effect was the election of Robt W. Speer, as Mayor of Denver. By that action Birth of Nation Nisbet was defeated, and dethroned in disgrace, Gov. Carlson was harpooned for meddling in our city affairs and the Post given such a sound thrashing that other habitations will be more favorable for its yelling place. Mr. Speer, a true real man, every inch of him, knew when he began his campaign that he had to fight and win, overcoming all kinds of mean, pernicious abuse, falsehoods and poisoned gas of Champa Street. Not only was he attacked but his supporters were openly attacked and insulted Elberton, Ga.—Mr. Young, a wealthy white farmer, had a farm hand working for him by the name of Ben. While working in the fields the Race man stepped into a hole and discovered a pot of gold containing $35,000. The man kept the gold and quit his job taking the next train out of town. Young says he don't know where his former employee went, but that he certainly was a wise "N—." racially, but from a civic and municipal standpoint, in order to assist in the growth and greatness of prosperity to all citizens. Mayor Speer who won the loyal support of 95 per cent of the best business Negroes thru the efforts of the Star and others, has the chance of his life to do for them, what is so sorely needed, and that is to follow the example of his illustrious predecessors, Mayor Sharpley and Commissioner Clair J. Pitcher. Let us all work together for a better, a more prosperous and greater Denver, giving encouragement to every laudable activity which makes for Denver's health and happiness. He won. The first skirmish has been won, now comes the real battle, the struggle to make good and keep true his pledged word for law enforcement, greater prosperity, better police protection, and a strictly non-political, nonpartisan administration, playing no favorites. In this program of action, he needs the aid and assistance of every Negro citizen. He cannot do much without the help of the people who elected him, especially the business men and women of our race. In order to be prepared for the emergency, the Star suggests that our professional and business men and women organize into a commercial club and be prepared to render any assistance in furnishing any labor to any avenue of endeavor which might be available. Our white business men of Denver have suggested to the Star that such a movement be put on foot which will be divorced from politics, but which will be in a position to recommend good, clean and substantial citizens of color to business men for jobs. This organization is sadly needed in Denver now and it is strictly in line with the the Mayor's industrial idea to upbuild Denver by taking up the slack of the unemployed Negroes. Never have the Negroes of this city have offered to them such a favorable opportunity to do, not only good DEFEAT. FIVE CENTS A COPY. It Pays to Fight For Your Rights. "I write to offer to reinstate you to your former position as clerk and stenographer at the Medheld Hospital. Your work will be the same as before, and you will have a room as good as the other clerks and stenographers. You will eat in the dining room with them. Your pay will be the same as before, and you will be given the same privileges as the others." —Dr. French's letter. Boston, Mass.—Miss Jane R. Bosfield, who was recently discharged from the Medfield State Hospital, declared last week that she had received a letter from Dr. French (white) who had caused her dismissal offering to reinstate her. Miss Bosfield said that she answered Dr. French's letter and would report for work at once Miss Bosfield was discharged because she insisted that she should be served in the dining room with other employees and as she was the only Race girl there the poor whites objected and Dr. French discharged Miss Bosfield, claiming insubordination. The trustees upheld the doctor. Miss Bosfield then sought legal aid and took the case to the courts. The Supreme Court decided against her. The fair name of the Bay State was dragged into the case, several newspapers, especially the Boston Post (white) and the Guardian, sought to arouse the people because Miss Bosfield was not getting a square deal. The case was taken to the Governor who said he would hear the case with the executive council. At this hearing Miss Bosfield told how she had been treated and that sometimes she would go without food because it was cold and brought to her on a tray. The Governor seeing what pressure had been brought to bear ordered her reinstated even if Dr. French and the trustees did not like it. Their positions would be at stake. Miss Bosfield said that she believed there is a feeling of unfriendliness toward her at the institution, but add "that is one of the things I shall have to bear and live down." Reinstated. Faced by the formidable "request" of the Governor and Council that Miss Bosfield, the colored stenographer, be reinstated in her old position at the Medfield State Hospital, the trustees and the superintendent of that institution though still prating about the "right" to do as the superintendent did, have taken the very practical course of putting the girl back to work. This time there will be no knuckling to the nonsense of the employes as to eating in the same dining room with Miss Bosfield. And these employes may now be expected to have the good sense and courtesy to treat her properly. If they do not it will not be well for them. The girl has proved that she has powerful friends.

As is generally known, Scott church has had a hard career and the few loyal women who have stood by the church in the past year have had a most difficult task. But by their unswerving interest and Christian spirit they have excelled all succeeding years in the work financially toward making church and parsonage clean and comfortable and paying off old indebtedness. They will soon turn the church over to the male member. Rev. G. S. Sawyer, the newly appointed minister, arrived early Sunday morning. After a few hours of recuperation, he was ready to take up his duties at the Sunday school hour.

On Monday evening the Church Aid Society gave a May Day program. A very beautiful and engaging social it proved to the large number present.

On the 24th, 25th and 26th days of the month will be held our annual May Festival. Three attractive programs are being arranged. "Living Pictures" of Bible subjects, beautified by colored stereopticon lights; a "Tom Thumb wedding" and a popular social drama, "East Lynne," will furnish attractions for the three nights respectively.

DOUGLASS LEAGUE ENTERS PROTEST Objects to Actions of Repub- lican Law Committee, CONTENDS FOR SQUARE DEAL Reo oreeterinn bese Nee rs with headquarters in New York city, 1s sending out circulars and petitions for signatures to be presented to the Na tional Republican convention at Chi. cago in June. The league 1s protesting against the action of the law commit tee of the national Republican commit tee in reducing southern representation in national Republican conventions of the present and future. This action is belng taken because of the manifest injustice of party man agers in depriving Negro voters who are citizens and taxpayers of a voice in party counclis and because the na- tional committee in thus eliminating the Negro appears to be playing into the hands of a group of white men in the south, calling themselves Lily White Republicans, who have persist ently advocated the throwing over board of Negro Republicans in that section because of their growing num- bers and possible danger to the polit feal hopes and aspirations of white men in that section who can no longer mold them to their purposes. ‘The law committee and the national Republican committee, as the official mouthpiece of the Republican party, allege us a reason for the deletion of the Negro from party councils that Negro delegages are purchasable; that they have no influence and cannot de ver any votes; that these southern Negro delegates are an ignorant type of the race, etc. These, to me, do not seem to be valid reasons for depriving the electorate, which is the Judge of the qualifications of its representatives, of the right to x volce and a vote quadrennially as to whom they want for president. On the score of general intelligence the Negro delegates from the south in previous national conventions have not suffered by comparison with the white men from the south In political acu- men and in mental equipment. 1 have known many men of both races from the south who were delegates to national conventions, and I think the dumbest white Republican I ever met was one who represented a district in South Carolina in the Republican con: vention of 1888. I traveled with mem: bers of the South Carolina delegation from the District of Columbia in that year and saw much of the white men in the party during the run from Washington to the convention city. Edmund Deas of South Carolina was n delegate, and he ts a colored man. He could make rings all around his white confreres in the delegation be- cause of his practical knowledge of the political game. Robert Small was also a delegate. He was not an educated man tn the broad sense, but he died tn office, and a black man who conld obtain and hold an of- fice in the south for more than forty years and get himself elected to every national convention of his party is not only a good politician, bnt a genius, and General Small, whom I knew very well, was certainly a genius in his way. I could name dozens of these old timers like Jim Fill of Mississipp!, Jim Tewls of New Orleans, N. Wright Cuney of Texas, R. Henn Burch of Loulsiana, Perry Carson of the Dis trict of Columbia, Judge Gibb of Ar kansas, and scores of other notable Negroes, who in their day were good enough Morgans for the national Re publican committees that wrote party platforms and made presidents. ‘The Negroes of the south have not retrograded politically nor intellectual: ly. Asn matter of fact they knew too much of the political game for the crafty white men tn that section, who would reorganize the Republican purty on a white basis and reduce the Negro to the condition of a political non- entity. This is the purpose of the acheme to reduce southern representa: tfon in the national committee. ‘The southern Negro is a man, the southern white 1s also.a man. They differ in no essential as voters where opportunities are equal, for one man’s vote counts one and no more. ‘Then, too, the Negro s reducing his {literacy in the south, and his ambi- tlon rises in corresponding ratio. He wants to be somebody politically and socially. He is somebody industrially and finxneially, as a glance at the last census will show. He ts a taxpayer The constitution tells Lim he ts a man and a citizen of the United States. Tle belloves what the constitution says. and he demands the enforcement of tts provisions guaranteeing to him the tn- allenable rights of citizenship, among which Is the right to a veice in the se. ection of those chosen to rule over him, I very much question whether the Inww committer of the national commit tee can Justify in a court of law tts action in abridring the rights of the Negro enfframins of the south by deny- tng them fe"! representation in a con: ‘mie awe lace RARE a aime tania ines oe All Aboard For 99 | Shey Ann | THURSDAY, JUNE 15th GIVEN BY BOLDEN BROS.

We are in receipt of an invitation requesting our presence at the inauguration of Robert Russa Moton as principal of the Institute in connection with the thirty-fifth anniversary exercises on the 25th inst., at Tuskegee Institute, for which we are very grateful. We regret very much that owing to the overplus of work, we will not be able to be with you. However, we wish you a very successful commencement at Tuskegee Normal and Industrial School. Please correct the statement in last week's issue of your paper that work on the election books had been given to me by Mr. Teller, the Democratic commissioner. Mr. Martin, the Republican member of the election commission, was the inspiration for what work I did. (Mrs.) IDA DE PRIEST. Upon the strength of the above statement, the Star wishes to state that Mrs. De Priest says that Mr. Teller did not appoint her, and if such is the case, the Star was in error and Mr. Teller misinformed the Star. He does not know Mrs. De Priest, only by name. The Star was told last Wednesday by Mr. Teller himself that HE appointed Mrs. Ida DePriest, along with Messrs. Gay and Hall. That a committee of colored women had called and requested that the Colored be given a share of the copying the poll books. Mrs. DePriest appeared there some three or four weeks ago and asked for some work and he appointed her, so he said. In order to ascertain the correct facts, The Star asked Mr. Bert Martin, whom we know well, if he appointed Mrs. DePriest or had anything to do with her appointment and he said plainly that "Mrs. DePriest was appointed as one of Mr. Teller's workers and he had nothing to do with it." We accept the denial of Mrs. DePriest, but the Star sincerely thanks Mr. Teller for giving the opportunity to the colored to get back some of the taxes paid to the county. This statement is published in fairness to all concerned. Give honor to whom honor is due, is our motto There have been complaints made against a certain ambitious undertaker for the pernicious practice of going over to the County hospital and asking relatives or going to the house and asking them for the body of their sick relative. In one case both parties were very sick and this undertaker went to both sick people and asked for the body of their sick relative. As a result, serious illness was the consequence to both. Even money has been offered the nurses at the hospital to use their influence in getting them the body. Such pernicious practice of scaring people to death in order to get their bodies must cease. The Star only gently calls attention to this matter, which we hope will be sufficient. Only think before you act The Star is calling special attention to Jason Perkins, one of the News-Times contestants for an auto and a bicycle. He has led since the start and on May 20 the contests closes. He has a right to ask you for your subscription for the Times and News and expect your support, Cal Champa 1856, or at 2447 Tremont, and he will do the rest. One or two of the ministers have promised to help win this glory for the race. A hint to the wise is sufficient. Help him. Let us thank you for the many subscriptions you have sent in the past month. It's mighty nice for an editor that is trying to do the right thing to find several unsolicited subscriptions in his mail every morning. This paper certainly appreciates what the common people have done for us. We have, it appears, struck a popular chord at last. But, above all, this gives us more encouragement than anything else. Again we thank you and would like to say before we close that the people will always do for those who do for them. The Star is the people's friend and the best proof of it is that you cannot find in another Denver paper the kind of breezy news that the Star contains, and a paper that will make the fight for the Negroes that the Star makes.

The Virginia Journal of Education in speaking of Major Robert R. Moton, who will be installed as principal of the Tuskegee (Ala.) institute at the commencement exercises to be held at the institute in May, says editorially: Distinguished honors have come to Hampton. She not only educated Booker Washington and through him made Tuskegee possible, but she has now trained and supplied his successor. Major Moton has no easy job ahead of him. His responsibilities will far exceed his honors. Even if he shall equal Washington in the grasp of today's problems he will yet have to deal with the more acute ones of tomorrow. Until this day is reached and passed no final judgment as to the value of Washington's great venture can be predicated. History must reverse itself and the tragic story of the race be rewritten if the day is to be passed in safety. In the arena of commercial rivalry no quarter is given the weak and especially where race instincts are acute and race prejudices exist. Herefore the fairest attributes of humanity have failed utterly to soften the shock of collision and to ameliorate the sad fate of the defeated. This, then, is the task ahead of Major Moton and his collaborers. It is one requiring a prophetic eye, a consecrated heart and a just conception of human nature, its capacities and its limitations. In these days of preparation for the final contest the Journal bids the leaders of Hampton and of Tuskegee an earnest godspeed. It sincerely hopes that history will reverse itself and that through the force of proper race adjustment and the finer equities of an advancing civilization the trained forces of both races may meet in happy accord and in abundant prosperity. LIBERIA'S GOOD FORTUNE Large Bible School Started by Miss S. M. Taylor at Fortsville. Miss Susie M. Taylor of South Carolina sailed for Liberia, West Coast Africa, on June 8, 1912, as a missionary of the national Baptist convention. She returned to this country on Friday, April 21, 1916, after a perilous voyage on the Chicago, a French steamer. Miss Taylor inaugurated plans for founding the Bible and Industrial academy, near Fortsville, Liberia. This promises to be the largest undertaking in West Africa by any religious sect of our group. The building is to cost $4,000 when completed and is now nearing completion. She reports a large number of students and every prospect for one of the best institutions in that little republic. Miss Eliza Davis of Texas, her assistant, was left in charge of the work. The foreign mission board of the national Baptist convention hopes to plan her meetings so as to raise the needed funds for the completion and equipment of this school before she returns to West Africa. There are 300 acres of land, on some of which many coffee trees have been planted. Dr. L. G. Jordan, secretary of the board, says, "Miss Taylor has proved one of the most consecrated and efficient workers the board has ever sent to foreign fields." She hopes to visit a number of the state conventions during the summer. Her story of nearly four years' work is pathetic, and it is felt the Baptists of the United States will give her the needed funds for the completion of the school, as she is quite a favorite among them. Letters intended for her may be sent to 701 South Nineteenth street. Philadelphia ARDENT ADVOCATE OF GOOD HEALTH Mrs. John E. Smith Tells How to Prevent Disease. NATIVE OF NOVA SCOTIA Effective Work of a Hampton Institute Graduate In Two Counties of Virginia as Visiting Trained Nurse-Delivers Instructive Address Before the Negro Organization Society. Mrs. John Edward Smith of Hampton, Va., is doing valuable and effective pioneer work. She is winning the confidence and respect of her own people and the best white Virginians through teaching men, women and children how to lead healthier, happier and better lives. As a visiting nurse Mrs. Smith follows up the medical inspections which are being made in the schools among our people in York and Elizabeth City counties by Dr. Roy K. Flannagan and other workers of the Virginia state board of health. Before her marriage to a Hampton tradesman Mrs. Smith was Miss Annie Taylor, who finished her course at Hampton institute in 1890 and was a member of Major Robert R. Moton's class. She was born in Kentville, N. S., in 1868, and after her graduation from Hampton institute took a course in the Dixie Hospital and Training school. In 1894 she received her diploma as a trained nurse. Representative of the Hampton idea. Through all the years Mrs. Smith has been devoted to improving the health conditions of the community in which she has lived. She has always been a good home maker and representative of the Hampton idea of education for service. The Negro Organization society of Virginia recently held a Sunday health mass meeting at Hampton institute to create fresh enthusiasm for the state wide "cleanup campaign." Captain Allen Washington, who will succeed Major Moton as commander of cadets at Hampton institute, asked Mrs. Smith to speak on "Health Conditions." Mrs. Smith in part said: "This meeting is like a revival. The Negro Organization society has gathered us here from the communities in the county to learn about the religion of health. To fully understand what this society is doing through its efficient workers we should read again the health creed and pledge which were written by Professor John M. Gandy, who is the executive secretary of the Negro Organization society. "I believe a sound body is the most precious of all earthly possessions, the foundation of a strong mental life, an important element in the making of moral character, the first essential to any worthy achievement and the greatest factor in a life of happiness. I believe dirt and filth are the copartners of disease and death; cleanliness and abundance of pure, fresh air, plenty of sunlight and the proper disposal of waste from the body are safeguards to good health. "I therefore pledge myself to keep my body clean, my mind free of impure thoughts and my lips of unclean words; as far as possible to live in the open air; to let into my sleeping room sunlight in the day and a full supply of pure, fresh air day and night, winter and summer; to wage a deadly warfare against files and mosquitoes; to do whatever I can to encourage good health for my community. Death Rate In Elizabeth City County. "The Elizabeth City county board of health for a month or more has reported no contagious diseases. The number of deaths among colored people, however, has exceeded the number of deaths among white people each month for the past four years with only one or two exceptions. The number of deaths among our people some months has been double that of the whites. I am sure that in many cases, if the simple laws of health had been regarded, the number of deaths might have been less. "I have visited some beautiful modern homes owned by our people, and I have also visited the humblest cabins that anybody could spend the night in. I have entered some homes into which preachers, teachers and even doctors hardly ever go. Some people are indifferent. They don't seem to try to make the most of what they have. I have found that even indifferent people are sometimes willing to listen to a stranger who will help them. Spirit of Cleanup Should Continue. "We want the spirit of 'cleanup week' to last all the year, especially in the winter time, when dirt seems to accumulate so fast. While cleaning up do not forget to look after your well. Good, pure water means health. The Virginia state board of health has carried on the work of medical inspection in the colored county schools. In seven schools the inspectors found over 500 children suffering from defects which interfered with their school work. "To interest the children in their own health problem we have had instructive lectures and demonstrations by our own doctors. Dr. Lattimore and Dr. Atkins, both of Hampton, have been especially helpful." ZION CONFERENCE HELD AT CAMDEN New Jersey Methodists Conclude Harmonious Session. BISHOP CLINTON PRESIDES. Forty-third Annual Conference of Influential Religious Body Was Most Successful In Its History—Good Work of Dr. J. R. White at Wesley A. M. E. Zion Church. By GEORGE E. KING. Camden, N. J.-The forty-third annual New Jersey conference of the A. M. E. Zion church, which closed its sessions at the Wesley A. M. E. Zion church in this city the third week in April, was one of the most harmonious and successful in its history. Bishop J. W. Clinton presided. Rev. James R. White, D. D., pastor of the church in which the conference was held, deserves great credit for the able manner in which he, assisted by his congregation, entertained the conference. He is rated as one of the most progressive ministers of the denomination and a fearless race leader. The Rev. Mr. White was left an orphan at the tender age of ten years. He is a native of Elberton, Ga. Despite the adverse conditions which he faced at such an early age he had a broad vision and a native ambition, which enabled him to vigorously overcome obstacles and to get a thorough education at Clark university, Atlanta, Ga, and at Payne college, Augusta, Ga. He began his active career in the ministry twenty-four years ago at Augusta, Ga. He at once became a factor in the uplift of his people in his state and helped to wage a strenuous campaign for better schools for Negro youth, and on two occasions, because of taking PETER H. HARRIS REV. DR. JAMES R. WHITE. a firm stand for the race to receive an equitable share of the school funds his life was jeopardized. After pastoring successfully in Georgia the Rev. Dr. White was sent to the Virginia conference and then to Washington, where he also did constructive work for his denomination. He built Lane chapel in Northeast Washington and became a potent factor in reaching the unreached in that section of the capital. Later he was transferred to Philadelphia, where he was presiding elder for two years. Since then he has with pronounced success pastored in other parts of Pennsylvania and New Jersey. The remarkable enthusiasm of the conference at the Wesley church was largely due to Dr. White's achievements since he has been in this city. When he came here two years ago the church building was in a dilapidated condition. He organized the members of the church, and they joyfully followed him to the extent that this congregation now has an edifice which reflects credit upon them. Recently an annex was added to the church at a cost of $4,000, and several organizations of the church have equipped the entire plant with electric lights. A large gas range has been put in the kitchen. The main auditorium has been beautifully renovated, and an inspiring churchly atmosphere prevails. Dr. White believes in Negro brain and skill, and the entire work was done by a Negro contractor. The ministers of Camden received their share of praise from the conference because of the splendid work the ministers of the race in this city are doing through their organization, the Ministerial alliance, which was organized by Dr. White. This body of able men, with the assistance of the local Negro Business league, in 1915 stopped the play entitled "The Nigger" from showing in this city. The Rev. Dr. White has received many honors. He is a strong force in the economic, social and religious activities of Camden. He has certainly made himself an element for good in the affairs of the local government and has helped to better local conditions among our people. Because of his consistent and inspiring efforts and training Livingstone college, the leading institution of his church, will also confer the degree of doctor of divinity on him. Being a man of strong qualities and endowed with the ability to lead, he is one of the leading delegates to the general conference of his church which convenes in May at Lon isville, Ky. He has won the admiration of the better element of both races wherever he be bored.

Folks Contribute to Washington Memorial Fund. In a faraway district of Alabama, twelve miles from a railroad, there is situated a little school which found its beginning first in the hearts of some of Coosa county's patriotic white and colored citizens and which under most trying difficulties has blossomed into a little community, an oasis of civilization, as it were, in a desert of ignorance. It now pulses with the quickening throbs which come from education and purposeful toll. The Coosa County Training school, of which Robert W. Taylor is principal, is the center of activity in this model community, and from this school there radiate encouragement and an awakening pride of race which are molding a strong sentiment for progress and advancement. But Coosa county is not unlike other counties of the south, for it depends almost wholly upon the production of its farms for its existence, and "then there be lean years, and there be fat years." And 1915 was very "lean" with the colored people of Coosa county, and they have suffered much and been deprived of much. But they are stout hearted and hopeful and have yet to show the first evidence of a faltering faith in the ultimate achievement of their ideals. When the call for support to the campaign for the Booker T. Washington memorial fund was issued the people of Coosa county were among the first to reply that they would spare nothing in doing their part to perpetuate the work founded by Dr. Washington and in helping to erect a suitable memorial in his honor on the grounds of Tuskegee institute. The story of their great love, of their great loyalty and of their great sacrifice to participate in this expression from the race is best reflected in the following letter from Mr. Taylor: "I take pleasure in sending you here with my check for $2.50 as a contribution from the children of the Coosa County Training school to the Booker T. Washington memorial fund. A large part of this contribution represents the sale from eggs donated by children who were too poor to give anything in cash." The spirit of the widow's mite was never better exemplified than in this instance of the Coosa county school children's contribution to the memorial fund. This same spirit should spread throughout the south among the school children and encourage them to contribute freely. Merchants' Association's Good Work. The Merchants' association at Pensacola, Ala., recently organized among the business men of the race, is doing a most helpful work. The association is the outgrowth of the local business league. It regulates credit and co-operates with the public along other lines which are proving very beneficial. The association precludes the possibility of dishonest persons securing goods without paying for them, and in this way it is a real protection to the community. Virginia Baptist State Convention. The annual meeting of the Virginia Baptist state convention will be held at the First Baptist church, Norfolk, for five days, beginning on Wednesday, May 10. Corresponding Secretary Thomas H. White announces that each church or auxiliary body should send the names of their delegates to the Rev. R. H.

DAILY AND SUNDAYS 711 - 28th STREET PHONE CHAMPA 2163 NEW ENGLAND BAPTISTS MEET IN PHILADELPHIA. Committee on State of Country Holds an Interesting Session. Philadelphia.—The Holy Trinity Baptist church in this city, the Rev. Dr. W. F. Graham pastor, was the scene of a large gathering of Baptists and other persons interested in the general welfare of the race on Wednesday. April 19. The occasion was a mass meeting held under the auspices of the committee on state and country, representing the grand old time honored New England Baptist missionary convention. The Rev. W. Bishop Johnson of Washington is president of the main convention, and Dr. W. B. Reed, pastor of the Mount Olivet Baptist church, Newport, R. L., is chairman of the committee under whose auspices the meeting was held. The Young People's Association of the Holy Trinity church rendered special music for the occasion, and Rev. W. F. Graham delivered a warm address of welcome, in which he gave the keynote of the meeting and aroused great enthusiasm by pledging hearty support to the work of the committee. The first address on the program was that of the Rev. Dr. W. H. Jernagin, pastor of the Mount Carmel Baptist 9 REV. DR. J. E. CHURCHMAN. church, in Washington. His subject was, "Shall We Make a Manly Fight For or Cowardly Surrender Our Rights?" Dr. Jernagin's speech was logical in thought and accurate in its legal contention as to what constitutes citizenship in this country. He made a strong plea for a fearless and unceasing fight for all the rights of citizenship being granted to the colored The Rev. Dr. J. E. Churchman of Orange, N. J., who is one of the most zealous and fearless champions of equal rights and opportunities for the race, made perhaps the most remarkable speech of the day. Dr. Churchman's subject was "Negro Manhood According to Southern Analysis." He recited in detail many cases of wrongs perpetrated upon the colored people by the state and the national government and branded segregation, mob law and political treachery as the most barbarous of twentieth century crimes. Dr. Churchman labors in many fields for racial development besides his business as an undertaker. He is an orator of ability and has rendered valuable service in many good movements. He is in demand on all occasions where real service in defense of the race is needed and at times when only men of courage can render service which counts against injustice and misrepresentation of our people in this country. The power of concentrated effort was discussed by Chairman W. B. Reed. The address to the country was read by Dr. George E. Morris of Camden, N. J. Echoes from the Washington meeting held in February were given by President W. Bishop Johnson, Rev. W. A. Taylor and Rev. J. R. Bennett.
