ASK PENSION FOR YOUNG'S WIDOW PRICE: 5 CENTS ASK THE MIRROR By C. F. RICHARDSON. THE POLITICAL ASPECT. The political situation, especially as it relates to Texas, seems to be rather nebulous, and many of the politicians in Texas are far among the democrats of the state. Apparently there are three factions in Texas that try to carry its point regarding the Texas democracy of the Texas democracy for the presidential nomination of the "jackson party" for president. They are dedicated to the national democratic convention in New York and quite naturally they demand to choose endorsed by the Lone Star Bakers of Underwood are insisting that Texas democrats endorse their man or nobody at all while Governor Rick Perry is endorsed by the Texas democrats and that Texas should have an uninstructed association with the national meet of the party. There you have the situation from a national standpoint among the party. As for the republicans, it seems a foregone conclusion that President Coolidge will be nominated on the ballot. The Republicans are gathering and that all is over but the republicans, "really "white-whites"” have decided to continue their program of eliminating and including the colored citizens from the ballot and holding their preconvention on Saturday. May 3, where colored people are meeting and holding their preconvention on Saturday. These office-holding politicians are in the same manner, and it would not surprise us to see these "white-whites" staging their convention of leading white hostility, or going to some exclusive building where col- The Texas republicans (self-identified) seem to be determined that colored men should be the affairs and councils of the party, shall not be only denied a seat in the party, shall not be only denied a seat in the affairs and councils of the party, from participating in any of the conspicuous party-leaders. In the hectic political fight between the republicans during 1980, the former employed force and resorted to duces to keep the latter from participating in the party, carried two or three "Uncle Tom" manikins to the national convention and invited his hibits, to convince the national executive committee of the republican party to attend the convention, to clamp out the affairs of the party, provided they are permitted to select said .colored manikins. Harry Bck, who mismailed the force against this "illly-write" regime and dynasty in 1980, but their case was missed at Chicago and the cards were issued from reports of what transpired at that convention and how lavishly the party treated its "tertiers" to put over their choice, an instrumental investigating committee, these slate makers were not anxious for the colored brother to be too illiterate and to have difficulty in machinations, machinations and money-bag. Right is right and right will finally be achieved, and this is as true in the political field as in the spiritual sphere of action. The insurgent republicans of Texas, formerly called the "shock and terror" party for a fight and contend, especially if chinney in Texas invades and resort to BAS THE HOUSTON INFORMER INTERRACIAL HEAD, HUMANITY FRIEND, PASSED TO REWARD Special to The Informer. Atlanta, GA.—In the death of John J. Egan, of this city, which took place on March 30, the cause of interracial true and powerful friend—one whose life was devoted almost wholly to the cause of interracial cooperation to organize the Commission on Interracial Cooperation and was its chairman until his death. When the Piedmont commissioned a commission, he was called upon to head that as well. He was also the chairman of the committee of Atlanta. To these organizations he devoted a great deal of time, and none of his altruistic interest. Mr. Egan was deeply interested also in the problem of Christianizing in India, the principal owner and manufacturing enterprise in Birmingham, and the duo profit sharing on an extensive scale and employee representation in the company, amounting to $20,000, which would ordinarily have gone to the stockholders, over and above their regular employees, over and above their regular employees, no many enterprises were closing or cutting wages, Mr. Egan refused to pay the workers his welfare of the workers was his concern. He put into effect also many other projects for their benefit, such as rebuilding the school, providing public will, which has just begun public, in the supreme evidence of the Birmingham concern, it is almost without the Birmingham concern, amounting to about $100,000, to be held by the employees, and that provides for the employees, and that provides for the profit shall go to them. His purpose the will is, "to insure that as express in the purchasing public and to labor on the purchasing public and to labor on the benefits of Mr. Egan's welfare plans while living and in the provisions of the Golden Rule." It is important that the concerned employees of the concern participate fairly in the life of the business, it is not surprising that the death of this employee is the absolute fact is that his funeral was attended by a number of representative colored leders, and that race will participate in the funeral. MEN'S SHOE STORE OPENS IN HOUSTON; LEE IS PROPRIETON Fulfilling a prediction that he made some years ago when embarking in a new job, Mr. Lee is the proprietor of the Lightning Shoe Repair Shop, 417 Milman Street, has recently remodeled his place and installed a new lighting system. Mr. Lee has been engaged in the present business for seven years and owns a lighting trade. He saw the need of a shoe store owned and operated by the race and retail industry. He will feature the Yorker shoe, one of America's best make, which is高度定制 and comes all in style. The shoe store is in Houston and throughout the country. They are shops of high quality and come all in styles. Mr. Lee desires that our people visit the shoe store and that he is well prepared to take care of the trade. The same practices and tactics employed by them during 1920. We wonder of this in the battle song of the 1920s. "The fight is on!" The trump sound is ringing out. The cry, 'To arms!' is heard from far and near: The Lord of hosts is leading on to victory. The triumph of the right will soon arise. The flight is on, but he be not worry. Be strong and in his might hold fast. If God be given, his hamer over or, We'll gist the victor's song at last." HOUSTON, TEXAS, SATURDAY, APRIL 26, 1924 N. A. A. C.P.

She was a member of Bethel Baptist Church. She lived a consistent Christian. When he was sent to the Bethel church, she went on a journey seeming her way to the Bethel church to ring. She was never so happy when she was able to go to church and answer the preacher or talk in church. She not only loved to talk but she also loved to play and often used this expression with her mother. The money and I must give the church some. About five years ago she was married to her husband, her demise. During her illness she was as patient as Job—never complaining on Jan. 2, 1924 that she was so severely strenken that she was confined to her rooms in the house. She unable to leave her home she was carried to Camp Logan Hospital. She told Mr. Pearl Enter that she did not want her daughter to see her die. One morning when her daughter was talking to her about being so quiet, she said, "I am sitting here and I do not want her to give me up as your mother has you up." Then she began singing: "Our hearts in Christian love; The fellowship of kindred minds I like to that above.

Andre, Seey's Reporter Y. W. C. A. NOTES THE HOUSTON INFOMER, SATURDAY, APRIL 26. 1924 WHATNOT COLUMN 61—Who was Salem Poor? The following report was submitted to the honorable general court of the Pennsylvania Bay by 14 officers on the Patrol of December 5, 1775, i. e.: "The subcribent beg leave to report to your honorable house, which we do in justice to the character of so brave a man, that under our own observation, we declare that he was a Colossus of Poseidon's regiment, Captain Ames' company, in the late battle at Charleston, behaved like an experienced officer, as well as an excellent soldier. We would only beg leave to mention that he was a center of brave and gallant soldier. The reward due to so great and distinguished a character we submit to the congress. In 1857 the first newspaper published in this continent was the title of the call of the war. It was called "Freedom's Journal," and published from its office in New York. It was called "Freedom's Journal," and published from its office in New York. Its editors and proprietors were Messr. Cornish & Rushworn. Its name was subsequently changed to Cornish, and Cornish retiring, and in 1830 it was suspended, Mr. Rushworn going 63—Were American Negro soldiers ever in combat with German soldiers prior to the recent war? (67) referring to the battle of Rhode Island, says of Varmur's brigade, "None behaved better than green. The green colored regiment, which was the charge of charges of Varmur Heslans (House, Germany)," Williams says, "the black regiment was one of three that took part in the battle of the American army. These black troops were doubtless as the weak spot of the line, but they were 64—Who was Peter Salem? ANOTHER UNDERTAKING FIRM STARTED HERE Houston has another undertaking establishment, which throw wide its doors during the latter part of last month. The couple Daniels and Phillips and their funeral parlor is located at 1010 San Pellet street. Both men have been connected with other local undertaking establishments. "Clere" Daniels was with Elvidge Jackson for several year and then moved to Houston formerly connected with I. S. Lewin. They are now full-fledged embassers and funeral directors and have been invited to attend their fourth ward, and extend a cordial invitation to their friends and public to inspect their funeral home.

"Washington, D. C, March 17 —My appointment as compilator of customs for New Orleans district, made by President Coulson, has just been confirmed by the senate, 39 to 68. I thank the defender for its support, the dean to say that credit for the victory is due it through the indefatigable forts of its representative, Rocose Simona. "Walke L. Cohn." —The Atlanta (Ga.) Independent. Clean teeth the right way—with a dentifrice that does not scratch or scour. "Wash" your teeth clean with COLGATE'S (Continued from Page 1.) (7) In answer to the allegation that Wiley was afraid to play the games he was supposed to meet Prairie View on these terms: "That the conference name the umps; that the conference name the territory with both teams sharing equally in the expense, or that games were played by the same person or Wiley field with umps named by the conference and the school where games are played bear expenses of the conference. It was the intention of Wiley not to give this matter an airing until the conference was justified in the statement in last week's Informer forces us to speak in justification of the accusation of the presentation of the facts. Wiley greatly deplores the incident for the reason that he stands ready under any just circumstances to rectify a situation for which the concienciously feels no response." If the person supposed to represent Prairie View, J. P. Ellison had had a chance to play the trouble would never have arisen. It would appear from what took place in the game that he was making a binding agreement for the school is not vested in any of the local Prairie View schools. He was not a dear partner of winning the game, it occurs to me as it would to any fair-minded person that any other person who was no longer acceptable to them. Wiley would be willing to play anybody with any two of his players. H. J. MASON. Executive Secretary, Marshall, Texas, April 20, 1924.

IMPROVED UNIFORM INTERNATIONAL SundaySchool Lesson (BR) REV. P. B. FITZWATER, D.D. Teacher of English Bible in the Moody Bible Institute of Chicago. (C) 1914, Western Newspaper Union.) Lesson for April 27 AMOS AND HOSSEE PLEASING FOR RIGHTEOUSNESS (Temperance Lesson.) LESSON TITLE - Amos- 6:14; Hosee- 6:15 GOLDEN TEXT - "Hate the evil, and love the good." Daniel Bates. Become Barson. TOPIC1 - Amos Deserves Drunken Revenues. TOPIC2 - AND NESPOT-IC The Sins Denounced by Amos and Hosee. TOPIC3 - AND ADULT-IC The People and Adult-IC Sins That Destroy Israel. The kingdom of Israel reached a high state of property in the time of Jeroboam II, and with it came a kingdom of wickedness. Our lesson is a temperance lesson and applies to other things as well as indulgence in inexplicable acts of pleasure, pursuit of gain and selfish ambition. The Site Which Ruined Israel (Amos) 1. Reckless Security (v. 1.3). They were blind to the evisus that surrounded them, and they paraded, closing their eyes to the approaching storm of judgment as judged by Anno. They trusted in the protection of their city, and they regarded their city as impractable. They no doubt regarded the storm of judgment as a fantastic. The chief ones of the nation were so puffed up with pride that they failed to read the words of the history (v. 2). To disregard the lessons of history by dismissing the thought of violence (v. 3), they seated near the seat of violence (v. 3, 2. Luxury (v. 4-6). Periods of prosperity are always characterized by the violence of luxury in Samaria expressed itself in (1) Extravagant, Furniture (v. 4), (2) They had bids of livy, perhaps wood and stone (v. 4), (2) Laziness (v. 4). They stretched themselves upon their couches—living lives of indulgence. The implication here is that they had their dainalties out of season. This is what they define as deflecting what they define regardless of what it costs. In many instances women and women are living in gluttony while men are living in luxury. 1. Turn Back to God (v. 1). The only way for aiming individuals and nations to ascend the judgment of God is to repent and return to God. Hosea assures them that though God had torn and bind it up, God will heal and bind it if they repent. 2. Believe in His Power to Restore (v. 2). This power extends to a national resurrection for Israel. 3. The obedient walk and communication with the Lord that they were to know His forging mercy. 4. The Issue (v. 3, 4). Such pent-up resurrection is certainly certain. Grace is even more certain than the laws of nature. Just as shows result in faithfulness in Israel, so does the command of the Lord will result in blessings from Him, for His Supreme desire is not for man to bring offender to God, but to walk in the knowledge of God. The Bondage of Fear the cellar-growing vine is the Christian who lives in the darkness and bondage of fear. But let him go forth, with the liberty of God, into the garden where he will be the plant in the field health, and joyful—W. H. Becker. Think The greatest events of an age are its best thoughts. It is in the nature of thought to find its way into action. — Christian Overseas. The Franklin Way Is The Right Way THE FRANKLIN·SYSTEM AND PREPARATION GREW MINE.

HOUSTON, TEXAS, SATURDAY, APRIL 26, 1924 LAST CALL BEFORE BOND ELECTION. APRIL 26. Before another issue of The Informer, the citizens of Houston will have judged judgment on the big bond issue for "civic improvements," which will be voted on Saturday, April 26. As stated previously, The Informer is not opposed to this huge bond issue per se, but this paper is opposed to our people or any people voting blindly for bond issues, when they have no manner in improving just what part of said money will be spent in improving the sections of the city where they maintain their residence. Millions of dollars have been voted for bonds in Houston during the last two decades and millions of dollars have been spent for "civic improvement" but precious little of these millions has been expend. proving the conditions of the sections of the city where they have been invested just stop and count the number of paved streets in colored residential sections in this city, and then count the number of streets in these same districts that are even shelled or graveled. The only paved street or streets in the Fourth Ward are those that are served and serve the local traction company, and one of these is a quasi-business street. The only street that is any paved street, excepting Odin Avenue, and it is another business street, being dotted with more commercial and mercantile establishments than residences. Third Ward (let us pray), excepting McKinney Avenue, another business street, has no paved streets in colored sections, with the possible exception of the few who are fortunate enough to reside on Polk and Leeland Avenues. The Street Ward was assured of permanent living in the spring of 1922, and the streets submitted and carried, but where is the promised and assured pavement on this street? Now, this time the city fathers do not even make the colored citizens or even the Committee on Inter-Racial Co-operation one solitary promise regarding what consideration will be given colored taxpayers and citizens out of this proposed bond issue for "civic improvements" in the electoral electorate will either approve or defeat at Saturday's election. Indifference, lethargy and moral cowardice never did get any people anything, any time, anywhere, and, since it is apparent that the colored citizens of Houston will get absolutely nothing out of this proposed bond issue. The Informer herewith registers its operations all the issues exceeding the one line of the maryery. Especially does this paper oppose all the submitted bond issues for "civic improvements," for this paper is tired of seeing colored tax-payers and citizens burdened with additional taxes because of such bond issues, when these same people get about as much out of them as the necessary material to make a tea-jacket for a maryery. Colored citizens in Houston do not get anything for nor out of their taxes but a tax receipt, and it appears to The Informer that we should call a halt somewhere down the road, and think and act like other sensible and same people. Perhaps the maryery rays of Sol would continue to support and vote for big bond issues for "civic improvements" and get such little (practically nothing) out of them, as our people do in Houston. Perhaps the bloc happens a menace to a democratic form of government, but we notice that many of these blue-collar citizens obtain and attain—respectable hearing and decent considerations. Go to the polls Saturday, April 26, and vote against the bond issues for "civic improvements," for these items or propositions do not include or mean the colored citizenry of this municipality, unless they are lucky enough to reside in some white neighbor- Vote against these proposed issues and urge your friends and neighbors to do likewise. By all means, go to the polls Saturday and vote, whether for or against the propositions. Remember, The Informer is not against bond issues for civic improvements as such but this paper is fired of paving the freight on people's goods, and every time we support and vote for such bond issues, we are pulling off such a "bonehead" stunt. The city officials have had ample time to make public just how and where this huge sum of money for bond issues for "civic betterments" will be spent, but they have remained as silent as a clam and their silence and past attitude towards our people in such matters make us suspicious and doubtful of their good intentions on this occasion. Be sure and go to the polls Saturday (tomorrow), April 26, and register your objection to these proposed bond issues for "civic improvements!" Selah! The Houston Informer UPHOLDING "WHITE MAN'S PRIMARY" LAW. Judge Duval West, presiding over one of the federal district courts of Texas, recently held that the "white man's primary" law, passed by the Texas legislature, is constitutional and that any party has a right to prescribe the qualifications of its electors. The law requires that voters from participating in the democratic primaries and conventions, but to also make it impossible for "bolters," "spliters," et cetera to play havoc with the democratic party like was done in the Peddy-Mayfield contest of 1922. The Informer holds to the opinion that any party has a right to prescribe the qualifications of its constituents, but only in so far as the party is required to constitute and bills of rights and do not transcend public policy. Any party may be permitted to say who shall or shall not vote in its affairs and conventions, but when said party gets into power and employs legislative authority to take up the voters of the state their pet ideas and notions regarding such matters, a law that would be being established and class legislation is being enacted and enforced. If the legislature of a state is permitted to disfranchise citizens from the affairs and councils of one party, it will not be long before this same august (7) body will go a step further and disfranchise citizens because of party affiliations and religious beliefs. To be more explicit: If the democratic legislature of Texas, elects as the servants of all the people, can pass a law (and have its provisions enforced) to keep the colored people of the state from voting in the primaries conducted by said party, it will soon mean that the white republicans, who always vote, in a larger or smaller primaries, will also be excluded and disfranchised in this respect. The law is not only designed to keep the democratic party "white," but to make for the strength and solidarity of the said party, and the weakness and destruction of other parties in the state. I money for conducting and operating these "white mans" primaries is to be taken from the public treasury (as has been the case in the past), then the disfranchised and excluded citizens are victims of a grave and gross injustice and the state legislature merely becomes and is a machinery for executing and enforcing laws to benefit and prove advantageous to the party in power. The charge is often made that one reason for objecting to and opposing colored citizens participating in the affairs and elections of the party in the South is that the fact that colored people are easily bought and can be bought like cattle in political contests. If this charge is true, then the democratic party should begin its work of reformation within its own ranks, for the Peddy-Mayfield fisco is still too fresh on the minds of those citizens who frown at the party and even to even try to stigmatize the colored race with such opprobrium. Certain sinister and insidious influences are backing and supporting such class legislation, and its devotees and adherents are not all members of the democratic party. As The Informer has stated before, there is a tacit agreement and understanding between the white republicans and democrats regarding the colored brother, and in the South about the only difference between the two parties is that in principle, policy, tenets, traditions, practices and machinations, there is just about as much difference as there is between two black-eyed peas! In the scheme of political science and economy there is such a thing as the political which very often affects more disastrously upon its proponents than upon its intended The Informer would not be a bit surprised to see the reaction and ramifications of this "white man's" primary creating consternation and confusion in the ranks of the so-called democratic movement. The public distribution, while not always swift, is sure, certain and inexplicable. IS MISSISSIPPI A BAY OF HOPE? Apropos the recent appearance of a group of leading colored citizens before the legislature of Mississippi and the memorial presented by their spokesman for improved living conditions in that state for colored people, the Nation came forth with an argument that the coloration of the population was hard but the ink become dry in issue of this weekly magazine before the legislators of that state showed the world about how much ray of hope there is in that state for colored people. A true Southern style these solons passed a set of resolutions a few days ago condemning the race delegation and denouncing them as agitators and seekers after "social equality" and the usual buncombe and "bull-shevik" that is dispensed in Dixie when the colored man asks for justice, a fair and square deal and a man's chance to live as other American citizens. Here are some of the things the colored citizens asked for: Here are some of the reasons for school funds, so that colored schools could have longer term education efficient teachers; better railroad accommodations for colored passengers; modification of the suffrage laws of the state, which virtually disfranchise colored citizens; eradication of mob-violence; better and more wholesome living conditions; in fact, these citizens only asked that Mississippi adopt and execute a program of coloration for colored people from that state and bring about more amicable relations between the colored and white races in that state. Yet because these colored "people" dared to ask the legislature to change their status to that of "citizens," they are adjudged and pronounced as "agitators" and "trouble breeders" by the lawmaker and the legislator; this petition was consigned to the torrid clime of the plutocratic regions. We often wonder if the South really intends to ever do its duty by and towards the colored race; if the race is to forever be rebuked and condemned when appealing for justice and its inalienable rights. The fortile and salubrious fields of Mississippi have been deserted by colored farm hands in their northern heath, in quest of better living conditions and a chance to live as other American citizens; and despite the fact that several of the big planters have been forced to leave the state, the delta section of that state on account of the colored exodus, these legislators—ignoring the message of the governor and plea of the race delegation—are doing their utmost to accentuate the movement of their colored "subjects" and further precipitate economic and social change. If such arbitrary and automatic legislative action terminated in the Mudcat State, the affronty could be overlooked, perhaps; but the Southern states usually contest in such matters to see which one can outdo the other in giving it to the black man "in the name of the white man," and to wealth to aa after and imitate Mississippi in turning down, ignor- OPINIONS Ten Greatest Negroes America Has Produced Ten Greatest Negroes America Has Produced Published by American Federation of Negro Students (Preston News Service) In the field of poetry our hands have 'carried on' so nobly that one should have a place on the soil of honor, here are many distinguished persons among us who have been involved in distinguished personal and Conte P. Cullon of our own day, who have enriched such rare taste, angular style, thoughtful theme, and within poetic charm; have in a marked fashion, it is seriously questioned, however, that any of these can be matched with the philosophic, unique and original Paul Laurence Dunbar. Better than true, humorous as well as solid ring of his peculiar talent in angelic, lyrical verse, he has been the century episode of the race, easily picks him out as one of the Ten Greatest Dumbar, although a poet, was essentially a fighter. He fought for self, for fame, and to show the possibility of undeterred Negro blood. Here we consider those whose ambition and privilege it is to defend the honor of their country and its traditions. In this field Crispus Attucks and Dunbar, in comparing these two bright persons, one comes into full consideration as to the number of acts one must do to be called great. Lack of skill and experience in the field of poetry, Commonwealth, shedding the first drop of blood for American liberty in our war for independence, makes a judgment difficult. There is a string contrast and yet a close similarity. Crispus Attucks there was the constant of will, purpose, fighting and struggling for the opportunity to be patriotic. Contraise, Crispus Attucks' great act occurred upon the heels of the moment and in liberal Massachusetts. Colonel Charles Young fought his way through the ranks of the Army, and was a hero of the war. A member of any of the race. No attempt can be made to institute that Crispus Attucks would not have been equal to the task, but rather to say that Young's heroism was a mere conjecture, not a mere theme initiating much conjecture. Both partners, both dying in harms, voluntarily in the service of our country. Colonel Young, like the great hero he was, however, fought the hard battles, subdued his to the unfortunate end. He was a great character, and is justly named as a member of the mythical ten. He is a cause for pride and womens emulation by the youths of color in Indeed, there are eight great Negroes who have been produced in America (Continued next week). ing and refusing this same, fair and humane plea of the race for the full enjoyment of all constitutional rights.
