Whites Desire Inter-Racial Amity "LILY White BLACK REPUBLICA CONCERNING PART "LILY-WHITEISM BLACK REPUBLICANS DISTURBED CONCERNING PARTY'S RACE POLICY; "LILY-WHITEISM" WILL NOT DOWN (By the Associated Negro Press) Washington, D. C., June 8 — "Lily-white," the infamous, notorious, nefarious, sacrilegious and hell-hearted dame of southern debased ideas, is on the rampage again! If "lily" is permitted to run loose, as now appears to be the republican program, so far as the South is concerned, may God help America and the G. O. P! President Warren G: Harding, than whom no finer exponent of human justice, by word of mouth, ever occupied the executive chair, is seemingly being invigued to acquiesce in a program that has for its object the elimination of colored Americans from absolute consideration in Southern politics. Washington, D. C., June 3. "Ilyl-wily," the infamous, notorious, nefarious, sarcastic and heart-bleated dame of southern debased ideas, is on the rampage again! If "ilyl" is permitted to run loose, as now appears to be the republican program, so far as the South is concerned, may God help America and the G. O. P. President Warren G. Harding, than whom no finer exponent of human justice, by word of mouth, ever occupied the executive chair, is seemingly being invigued to acquiesce in a program that has for its object the elimination of colored Americans from absolute consideration in Southern politics. This amazing condition of affairs is thoroughly presented in a four-column, even-tempered, frank editorial in the Atlanta Independent, issue of May 21. The editorial sets forth the establishment of a "committee of one hundred, which seeks to reimbure republicans whites in Georgia, and very obviously has for its ultimate object the elimination of Henry Lincoln Johnson, and his following, both white and colored, in Georgia politics. President Harding has, according to latest information, as published in the Independent, recounted this committee's chairman, Chairman Robert F. Kennedy, known in certain states of the South, where democracies have become alarmed at this "ilyl-wily" republican activity, that certain suggestions are being made to certain colored leaders to the effect that, if democracies should be endangered in office holding, they the premises is without appeal. Democrats Taking Notice, Democrats in Washington and throughout the South are taking special notice of the moves of the "ilyl-wily" office. Office-holding, and the spoils of democracy, have been the magic combinations that have held Southern democrats together, with anti-Negro propaganda as the big issue. Now, it appears, that this very propaganda may be the means of marvelous and important results known in certain states of the South, where democracies have become alarmed at this "ilyl-wily" republican activity, that certain suggestions are being made to certain colored leaders to the effect that, if democracies should be endangered in office holding, they the premises is without appeal. Slemp and Hitchcock Confer. Congressman Bascom Slemp of Virginia, and Frank H. Hitchock, former chairman of the republican national committee, and former postmaster general under President Taft, have been known by the Associated Negro Press to have conferred, and to well oppose, the subject of South African political conditions, as they affect colored Americans, was thoroughly discussed. Congressman Slemp is chairman of the subcommittee of the republican national committee that has the matter of dealing with the debate the national committee could consider. Congressman Slemp is known as a 'lily white' of the first degree, according to colored leaders of Virginia. Frank Hitchock for years has been known to be obsessed with the idea of building up a republican party in the South, in which colored citizens would practically be eliminated except possibly those who would be milded few of the bids of their masters. The situation has reached a crisis in Washington, and has superceded all other considerations. The subject of patronage has become nothing, as compared with it. In fact, on the subject of patronage, the Church of Ten of patronage has an extended conference with President Harding about three weeks ago. The conference was one of confidential exchange of opinions and policies. Mr. Church has not appressed the Associated Negro Press of the details of the conflictable sources has been leaked in the Harding painfully frank in letter it be known that there are to be certain limitations on the administration in appointing colored men to office. In other words, the Harding administration, in seeking honesty to apply the tonic of justice, will not go so far as to impose the conditions that will bring forth bitter comment from white southerners. So serious has become the political status of the race in the republican party that all reactionalism has ceased and all the well-known leaders through out the country are presenting a solid enemy of the times, "jive white." VOL. 111. "Lily-white," the infamous, nood- and hell-hearted dame of southern again! If "lily" is permitted to the republican program, so far God help America and the G. than whom no finer exponent of th, ever occupied the executive led to acquiesce in a programation of colored Americans from politics. Democrats Taking Notice. Democrats in Washington and throughout the South are taking special notice of the moves of the "lily whites." Office-holding, and the spoils of office, have been the magic combinations that have held Southern Democrats in office, proaganda as the big issue. Now it appears, that this very proaganda may be the means of a marvelous change in Southern conditions. It is known that in certain states of the South, where democrats have become alarmed at this "lily white" republican movement, it is being made to color coded leaders to the effect that, if democrats should be endangered in office holding, they will form a coalition with Negroes, with certain political understandings, and permit them to vote. This matter is having very serious attention, according to exact information coming from the Democratic Press from most reliable sources. On the other hand, Nemo republicans throughout the North, where their votes count in close years, have been outspoken in their expressions that no "nate trickies" can be pulled off by the republican national committee, the conservative, the senatorial, the congressional and gubernatorial elections in 1922. Practically every newspaper in the country has set forth editorial opinions, backed by expression from the people, that bear out this statement. The influence of the Nemo newspaper in molding and shaping the most remarkable things of the times. The letter of Charles D. Hiles, a national committee member from New York protecting in couting down Southern representation, and declaring that it would endorse disaffection; the expression of William Pickens on the subject, in a special contribution to the Nemo Negro Press, has weight.

Austin, Tex.-The Texas Public Health Association has issued a warning to the citizens of Texas against the menace of the house fly and the mosquito. The common fly is sometimes called the typhoid fly, as it causes much typhoid fever. It also helps spread cholera infection, tuberculosis and many other diseases. To eliminate this menace we must destroy the breeding places of the fly, among which the most important are cesspools and filthy stables. It takes the eggs a week to hatch, so the rubbish and other breeding places of the common fly should be removed or disinfected at least five or six days. The ordinary mosquito is called the mosquito, because by its bite the larger portion of malaria is transmitted. The mosquito is also capable of carrying a number of other diseases. The breeding places of the *m*osquito are stagnant water, slopes, dirty fronty walls, piers, ditches. To combat this no water should be allowed to become afflicted. If it is necessary to have a standing body of water, it should be covered with oil. Other breeding places should be kept in a sanitary condition. When it is not in use, this can be punched in the bottom will prevent water collecting. It has been definitely shown that a mosquito can fly only 1/5 miles. After all precautions have been taken the house should be securely screwed so that no fly or mosquito can gain entry and thus expose the family to disease. the offenders, is sufficient reason why the whole matter should be exposed and brought to the attention of thinking people. The injection of racial prejudice into the discussion will get us nowhere. It is a time for calm consideration and careful weighing of the consequences that are sure to follow unless conditions are remedied." Dr. Ham declared that peonage conditions exist in convict camps throughout Georgia, that prisoners are flogged and mistreated, that barbarian practices prevail under the guise of legal authorities. He asserted that "peonage within the law" is more offensive than "peonage without the law." "The moral issue can not be beclouded." said the minister.

Madden of Chicago was given an ovation when he concluded his address before the "Convention of Amity Between the Colored and White Races" at the First Congregational Church. Congressman Madden's subject was "Duties and Responsibilities of Citizenship." He began saying: "Let us hope we have reached the hour when we can bid good night to the day that is gone, and look forward to the day when the people of all races will be given justice." Congressman Madden spoke of duties of individuals, and the duties of the government in the responsibilities for the protection of citizenship. He pleaded for equality of opportunity in everyday life, declaring that he firmly believes there is a dawn of a new day when merit, regardless of color, will get its just reward. "The world we opened the door of opportunity for education. More than 400,000 colored citizens became soldiers, forming one-tenth of the total army. There was no discrimination in that, and there should be none in civil life," declared the congressman. The congressman referred to the terrible condition of trenching, peaage, and spoil, and asked the judiciary committee of the house. He stated that he believes that the bill will be reported favorably, and advanced on the calendar. He said he felt assured that the measure when passed would be signed by the president.

This, he said, would Other speakers were Representative Theodore Burton, Charles Lee Cook of Louisville, Ky., and Louis G. Greer. "The races must dwell in it in this country because they are the color of the people." The colored race should be recognized by white men, not only because the constitution of the United States requires it, but by the divine power of God. "Both races, he continued, 'must be understood to each other'." The colored race was committed by a colored man his people should be inbring him to justice. "At the same time, he add, 'If a crime was committed and the ofender was unknown, and a colored man should not jump to the conclusion that a colored man committed it.' "We are to take an important place among nations of the world," said the senator, "but we must first put our house in order of the order of the world, in that of leaching. This is not against the colored man alone, but against the man as well. I am ready to do what ever can be done, by constitutional amendment or otherwise, to the na Hope that the convention may become the steppingstone to the final achievement of human and universal brotherhood was expressed by Charles W. McCarthy, the former city, Ky. The world, he said, is looking, and has always looked, to this country for social justice. There is a great work ahead, he continued, in bringing the people together and help to achieve it, and not bury their heads in the sands of optimism.

If this. program had been followed Governor Dorsey would have ingratiated himself into the hearts of all the Georgia mobo- ‘rats, autoerats and helloerats and his name would have gone down in history as one of the greatest heroes of the sunny South- land. But no! (and here is where the trouble lies) Governor Dorsey dared expose the rotten conditions and intolerable state of affairs existing in Georgia and because he did not apologize for his ex- pose and because his action was so out of keeping and harmony with Southern custom and practices in such matters, he is a ‘curse to his race and « blight upon his state, according to the ‘excoriation, denunciation and condemnation of several Georgians of note | There is an old expression that “the truth husts sometime," and it seems that in the Georyia ease it has seratched the fur the wrong way and a veritable bedlam has broken loose in the’ shape icra salons nar tarring nts Gre the ‘cannibalistic and heathenish isles of the sea. Undoubtedly Christ was mistaken in his great pronouncement | ‘regarding men knowing the truth and the truth making and keep- ing them free; for the man who dares to tell the truth today and espouses the cause of righteousness in church and state is con- sidered and regarded as a menace and by all the gods, he must be suppressed “If our modern day erusaders and secret advocates and expon-| ents of Hunnish “kulture” and clandestine autocraey and ezarism are to suppress the truth and banish from the immunities all who incr their wrath and dnpenure, then Chrit’s lors and| doctrines have availed mankind nothing and we are of all men most miserable. ‘The Informer, knowing that the wisdom of man is as foolish- ness compared with God, still stands firm on “the faith once de- livered unto the saints” and believes that in due season truth will get a hearing and right will triumph, “Ye shall know the truth and the truth shall make free; and if the truth make you free you are free indeed.” Selah!

Broke His Promise to Keep Her Secret Marble Above Mrs. Carry Nation's Dust Marble Above Mrs. Carry Nation's Dust Gotham Smart Set Going Into Business MINNABAPOLIS—That a husband's solemn promise, made during courtship, to keep secret his wife's identity, had been broken to gain his ends in a divorce suit was charged by Mrs. Velva Vanderburg against William Wade, made a lengthy deposition was made in a lengthy deposition from London, where the wife is now living. The indiscretion, she adduces in the deposition, caused the affair before their marriage February 2, 1915, in London, and she says she promised on his honor not to violate the affair before their marriage. He expressed sympathy for her girlhood error, and begged her to marry him in spite of her earlier infatuation and the fact that a child had been beaten. Admission of the indictment came when, among questions submitted for Mrs. Vanderburg to answer by deposition, was included one asking politically related questions. The deposition of Mrs. Vanderburg is supported by affidavits submitted by her mother, Mrs. Sarah Gentle; a friend, Catherine Edward Dynke; and a friend, Edward Catherine Dynke. NEW YORK—The fad of having a job is society's all-absorbed idea. The latest of Driven daughters to the industry, Lydia Hoyt, who has signed a contract to appear in motion pictures, she is no pioneer from the social mukus in the industry. She blazed before her by not a few of her own set. Emphasized, Briated, for instance takes her place at her desk in the offices of a well-known magazine each morning promptly at nine. Mrs. William Lainberhe, who was named a pioneer better known in banking charts than in the social ones where only a few years ago she was a leader, time after Time Alice Potter of Newport, has weared of society and is engaged in the photograph business in a prominent Fifth Avenue location, when you would least expect to be in trade is Mrs. Charles Diksley, too, in the perfume Miss Briar Force, sister of Mrs. going to hold that poor woman any longer, are you?

Attorney O'Brien informed him. "She shot in self-defense. Look at the scratches on her." "But your honor, I understand she tried to knife him. put in the assistant stalker's arm. I don't die. We ask her immediate discharge." It was agreed that Mrs. Sweeney be charged with assault with a deadly weapon. Mrs. Sweeney and her husband are arrested for disorderly conduct. Mrs. Sweeny was home in time to prepare supper for her husband. "What's the good word, BILL?" he was asked. "Don't talk back to your wife," said Dr. Godreau De Baux Turtle. The depositions were taken by Joaslyn Branford the Minnesota commissioner of Burlock, England. The Vanderburghs were married in London as the culmination in a romance which began in Switzerland and the Minnesota man was touring Europe. After the separation less than two years later, the husband began two divorces and in 1920. The latter was dismissed and it is upon the former that the case is to be heard. Vanderburgh is a son of former Judge William H. Vanderburgh of the State Supreme court. He is an attorney and has been an unsuccessful candidate for the Supreme court. He is sixty years of age and his wife thirty- Even that is a typographical error, so to speak. Mrs. Nation insisted that she carry "Carry" her middle initial was A, but she wrote it without the period, thus making her full name appear thus: "Carry". Which, by the way, was exactly what Mrs. Nation wanted to do and tried to do—carry a duty against the mob. She did not carry a grave here in the little town cemetery of Belfon, one wonders just what she would say, and what she would do, she could return in the flesh and find Americas saloons and her own grave.

It is Julia Hoyt, however, who has the right to lay claim to being the first distinguished daughter of New York's social world to embark upon a new career. She has been a good friend to Lady Diana Manners and one or two other noted English women have acted for the screen and some American actors can appear on the legitimate stage.

Browning his story as a Universal Jewel feature at a cost run of $100,000 of thousands of dollars, and the film is said to give ample evidence of the expenditure, by the beauty and lavishness of its production. The locale is San Francisco, and several blocks of the Bay City's underworld were reproduced at Universal City at a cost of $90,000. An apartment house on Knob Hill, the modern palace of a banker, and the splendid oriental in the year and second floor of a bazaar are some of the more extensive settings. The story of "Outside the Law" concerns the struggles of a little group of crooks to free themselves from the shackles of crime and live the life they desire. In the they are the warriors of the criminal justice, a vengeful figure of the half world, who resents respectability. In the back ground, and yet the dominant personality of this drama is an old heathen philosopher, whose ideas of right and wrong are based on no political status and are based on a justice-justice justice-justice justice "outside the law." Priscila Dean is said to be at her dramatic best in this, her first picture since "The Virgin of Stambault," while Lon Chaney has a dual role which outliness anything in his career of crime and difficult screen imperations.

This question will be answered at the LINCOLN THEATRE Sunday, Monday and Tuesday June 5-6-7 THEATRE y and Tuesday 5-6-7 LINCOLN THEATRE Sunday, Monday and Tuesday June 5-6-7 This is one of Farnum's greatest films, being the story of a man's heroic struggle for love of a selfish wife; a tale of love that survives even death; the story of a domestic tragedy in which love finally wins the day; a romance of happiness wrecked upon the reef of vanity and ambition; a drama that proves self-seeking ambition's "less than littleness." Should a wife seek a career of her own or should she help her husband along the road to success? Can a woman find happiness in a career if she separates herself from husband and child and abandons their love? These questions will be answered in "His Greatest Sacrifice"—see it for yourself. PHONE PRESTON 1995 O. P. DeWALT, Prop-Mgr. PAGE EIGHT Farnum Here In Big Domestic Photodrama Followers of William Farnum—and they are legion—will find fine entertainment in his latest picture, "His Greatest Sacrifice," which shows at the Lincoln Theater Sunday, Monday and Tuesday, June 5, 6, 7. In this movie, Mr. Farnum has been a great asset to the screen, stands out more clearly than usual. He has a big dramatic part as the successful writer whose wife leaves him and their child so that she can give all her time to her own advancement on the operatic stage. "His Greatest Sacrifice" brings up a question quite common in modern times—should a wife have a career that interferes with the welfare of her husband, her home and her child? The question is answered in telling fashion in the photoplay. Still, those who watch the movie "It" makes stirring drama and pulls hard at the heartstrings. Reports from the William Fox studio in New York state that Mr. Farnum took more personal interest in the making of this picture than in any other, with the possible exception of two Cities and two Miserables. Each day in his dressing room he went over the scene by scene with his director, J. Gordon Edwards, acting out every point on which there was any slight difference of opinion and finally getting all to a state where he and Mr. Edwards agreed they would be most effective. Mr. Edwards agreed to Mr. Piot that in this picture there is food for thought for married and single alike, for men and boys as well as for women and girls. At Ideal Theatre Tot Browning's original drama of "the underworld," "Outside the Law," comes to the Ideal Theater next Thursday and Friday, June 3 and 10 with Priscilla Dean in the stellar role, Lon Chaney, Wheeler Oakman, K.

Chicago, Ill.—A verdict awarding Ada Dozier, 3515 Federal Street, a colored woman, damages of $2300 against the city of Chicago, was returned by a jury of white men in Superior Court before Judge Samuel Stough last Friday. This was the first of thirty-eight damage cases against the city originating in the race riots of July, 1919, to be tried. Of the veniume selected all were white except Ellis Thompson of 6220 S. Morgan街, who was rejected by assistant state's attorney representing the city. It was brought out at the trial that during the rioting a committee had waited on Mayor Thompson and been assured of ample police protection.

William Henry Dozier, husband of Mrs. Ada Dozier, was killed by a mob at the entrance to the stock yards the following day. Attorney A. L. Williams, representing Mrs. Dozier, read the handbills into the record, alleging they had been the indirect cause of Dozier's death. One of them read: "All stock yards workers may return to their work without fear of molestation or bodily harm. Mayor Thompson guarantees that all races will receive a square deal.

The Gassers were not in it with the buffs, who put up a stellar exhibition, and they posted in every game of the series and won the series practically hands down. Sunday the Gassers could not fathom the slants, benders and shoots of Pitcher Jackman and the Buffs were returned winners by the score of 9 to 1. Tuesday the Gassers did the receiving in grand style. Monday "Black" Alexander hurled a masterly game, while Carrington caught another great game, the Buffs winning 6 to 2. Tuesday the Gassers' battery consisted of Evans and Williams, and while the game abounded in plenty of hitting by two sides, Houston won by a score of 9 to 7. The games in Shreveport were very poorly attended, there hardly being any defense, and start a fuss with the peanut vender. Secretary Homer E. McCoy of the Black Hair witnessed the Sunday and Monday games and, while he was immediately pleased with the victories on the diamond, he was sadly disappointed with the receipts at the ticket window.
