Houston Informer

VOTE IN REPUBLICAN PRIMARY ELECTION, SATURDAY, JULY 24--'Remember 1920! 'Boss' Morris' Malicious Misrepresentations --- HOME EDITION VOL. VIII By C. F. R. RICHARDSON. This is the last call to VOTERS! This is the last call and final appeal to the republican voters of Houston and Harris County, as well as Texas, to march to the polls on Saturday July 34, and cast their ballots against the Cruger regime in Texas, generated by known as the "Illywhite" gang or machine. In this state the fight between R. B. Creager, national republican committee chairman, and Harry M. Wurbach, was a leading candidate in the congressional district of Texas, in the nomination of a candidate for governor on the republican ticket. H. H. Haines of Houston is the "Illywhite" candidate, and R. B. Creager, the Republican candidate, is the Lincoln, genuine republicans, with Congressman Wurbach as the Texas leader and champion. In Harris County and Houston the fight between R. B. Morris, present republican county chairman, and C. F. Richardson, editor of The Houston Informer, who was denied a place on the official republican ballot for the primary election on Saturday, July 31, 1972. The election was held by the son's supporters to write in his name on the ballot, by drawing a black line through the name of R. B. Morris, printed on the official republican ballot as a candidate for county chairmen, and writing in the name of C. F. Richardson. Not only will the primary election be held Saturday, July 24, but after the polls close the voters of the republican election, the election will be a cinct convention, at some public place previously designated (usually such meetings are held at the polling places), and elect delegates from their precincts to attend the republican election. This is very important, next in importance to the casting of your ballot, and we urge the republicans to watch for notices of such precinct conventions. The public will be required to attend the election by a vote of their pick, and the Electors of said precinct conventions, the law gives the voters of said precinct the right to assemble, organize and then elect their delegates to the county conference. Read very carefully every piece of literature that has been distributed from the campaign literature and through the instructions given you in this campaign literature and through the regular SECRATE NEWPAPER in Houston, and true republicanism is sure to be a priority. Our family, and urge all members of your family and all your friends, who are qualified to vote, to cast their ballots for Pete Seaborn the republican governor and the RichardSON for county chairman of Harris County. Also make note of the very important: that we can win if we think we can, and it is up to every qualified republican voter to cast his or her ballot to restore the republican government. PEOPLE: for "united we stand, divided we fail, and we shall have no future but ourselves." In is "Remember 1820!" and our slogan is "Let's Right a Wrong With Our Pencils" at the republican primary election at Saturday, SOUTHERN PACIFIC PICNIC. The conductor of this column, accompanied by his wife, Messrs. Hobart Taylor and G. R. Tomlin, both connected with the National Benefit Life Insurance Company, spent last Saturday at Kendleton at the annual picnic of the Southern Pacific Lines colored employees. That number which John saw on the Isle of Patmos in his specialistic vision, which could, number, hold the place in the mass of people upon attendance at this picnic. Five trains, carrying around 18 coaches each, poured thousands of Houstonians upon the picnic grounds (Poster's pleasure park on San Bernard River), while a long train from the Wharton section brought hundreds to the event. Besides the acres of seething humanity, from the number of automobiles on the grounds and even an route to play a part in grounds when our particular returning to Houston, every available car in Harris, Fort Bend, Wharton and neighboring counties must have been pressed into service for this outing. Outing is the right name, for the people were certainly "out" there, and it was the largest gathering of its kind we have ever seen; and old time-sons on the grounds declared the same thing. Dancing, begun as soon as the plankleers arrived, held forth all day; with baseball games, barbecues, feasts and other forms of attractions. When we left the park the S. P. team of Houston was about to slay the S. P. team of Lafayette. La. Considering the huge crowd and the various types and classes of people present, the order was real good; only THE HOUSTON INFORMER After Morris had risen to Richardson at length on that memorable autumn Sunday morning, and had assured the race editor that the republican party like was done under the Blackwell adminstrations, (when prepaired for the election) he had virtually sworn on the memory of his departed father to remain true, loyal and steadfast to real republicanism, and suggest that "open door" and fair square deal to all persons of republican persuasion, whether white or black, should be the basis of the election. NEGROES FREED FOR CRIME DONE BY MAN'S SPOUSE NEGROES FREED FOR CRIME DONE BY MAN'S SPOUSE (By The Associated Negro Press.) Montgomery, Ala.—Now, after six years of prison life, freedom has just come to John Murchison, 70, who was born in 1920, were found guilty of first degree murder in connection with the death of John Franklin McClendon, and sentenced to life imprisonment. Two other Negroes sentenced with Murchison and Staten County were found guilty of the crime of which they were innocent. It is now learned that the crime for which these colored men went to jail was the murder of a wife of a dead man, Mr. Myrtle McFarlane, King Otho and McCledon, to a house and a mule for his part in the slaying. Her husband was shot in the back and the body was in a cultish land, where suspicion would point to Negroes. Mr. King McFarlane's death, is in jail now and was given a preliminary Wednesday hearing and minging with the colored pencibles, together in an auto. stands, watching the game ball game by side; thus knocking into a cocked pencible, minging with the colored grasses are always seeking 'noi' equality.

Partial Republican Polls Made Public By Morris; Negro Precincts Missing R. B. Morris, county chairman of the republican party of Harris County, has given to the daily press a list of the polling places for the republican primary election, which will be held in Houston and Harris County, Saturday, July 24, when voters will go to the public for their elections, and cast their votes for candidates for district, state and county offices. In announcing his list of polling places and their location, Morris took good pains to omit from the published list the heavy colored preincts, numbers of which were 47, 48, 49, 50, 51, 52, 53, 54, 55, 56, 57, 58, 59. Some think that there is a method in Morris's madness in omitting these preincts, hoping thereby to keep the colored citizens in said preincts in the dark as to their polling places until the election is over. It is not the stated that the list was not complete, and that the missing preincts would be published Friday. C. F. Richardson, candidate for county chairman of the Republican party of Harris County, has issued his final statement to the voters, in which he said that the election was not the result of daily papers for the location of their polling places; then go out in large numbers and vote, keeping a record of the nums.or on the back of their ballot. He urges his supporters to draw a line through the county, and to print the printed on the official ballot as a candidate for county chairman of the republican party in Harris County, and write in his name: C. F. RICHARD-SON. "If those who believe in fair play," says one republicanism, as well as those who want to see the republican party restored to all the people in this city and county, will go to the polls Saturday and vote," said Richardson, "we shall win a mighty victory and repudiate the 'illy-white' regime, domineering in the city and county. But it is going to require votes to best-the-ring; so let's get out, roll up our sleeves and see that every qualified voter casts a ballot in the republican primary election. We have only 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29, 30, 31, 32, 33, 34, 35, 36, 37, 38, 39, 40, 41, 42, 43, 44, 45, 46, 47, 48, 49, 50, 51, 52, 53, 54, 55, 56, 57, 58, 59, 60, 61, 62, 63, 64, 65, 66, 67, 68, 69, 70, 71, 72, 73, 74, 75, 76, 77, 78, 79, 80, 81, 82, 83, 84, 85, 86, 87, 88, 89, 90, 91, 92, 93, 94, 95, 96, 97, 98, 99, 100, 101, 102, 103, 104, 105, 106, 107, 108, 109, 110, 111, 112, 113, 114, 115, 116, 117, 118, 119, 120, 121, 122, 123, 124, 125, 126, 127, 128, 129, 130, 131, 132, 133, 134, 135, 136, 137, South's Greatest Weekly Newspaper HOUSTON, TEXAS, SATURDAY, JULY 24, 1926 Whenever any man or regime attempts to convert the republican organization of his or its presiding authority to a secular one, the promoters of the social organization and becomes social; and the promoters of the social organization have the right to invite their homes, hotels and offices only those of their social equals whose this the people's fight, and I wish to reassure you that the fight has just begun.

Adolph Smith, who died at a year ago, served the church for 40 years. He was beloved by all. His death was the cause of much grief to the congregation the anniversary sermon. He was plaid direct and convincing in his discourses. He was a great teacher of things that had been accomplished by the membership and how much could be learned. A number of visiting ministers and students assisted in making the program a big one. Many soles were sung, papers programmed.

MADAM WHITE AGENTS LAUNCH ORGANIZATION IN THE PELICAN CITY In order to stimulate a better business spirit apart from themselves, the city agents of Madame Eva B. White, a former New York City mayor, have organized themselves into a club WHITE PASTOR AT TULANE FOR NEARLY DECADE The ninth anniversary of Rev. E. W. White as pastor of Tulane Avenue Baptist Church, July 14, was very elaborately and befitingly celebrated. The church was decorated to suit the occasion. Very excellent programs were arranged for each evening, Sunday 18, being the arowning one. Many papers were read, remarks made, and short talks, paying a high glowing tribute to Pastor White for his faithful, untiring efforts and services put forth to make the church a greater Tulane. The paper read by Mrs. Alice Mimms, "The Pastor's Nine Years Labor," carefully traced the record of the church from the time he accepted the pastorate up to the present. Mrs. Mimms told of how the church had increased in membership and finances. The interest of the members has been aroused from an inactive, cold, aristocratic few to a host of soul-stirred, fire burning, zealous Christians, thrilled by the burning gospel messages of Rev. E. W. White; how the dingy dark old Tulane, with her brick walls crumbling away, was made new by the $20,000.00 improvements made by the pastor. She spoke of his great power and force as an o-ganizer, many improvements been outlined in A Tribute to the Children's Pastor, by little Louise Phillips of the Sunday school, was easily one of the best on program. She very beautifully told of his friendship and sympathetic understanding and love for the children. The musical program arranged by Chorister Landix added much in making it a grand occasion. Solos by Mrs. V. Leonard and Miss I. Williams were acceptably sung and elicited much applause and praise. The most important of the whole program was the anniversary sermon by Rev. Frank Clark, pastor Zien Travelers Baptist Church, president of Freedman's Association of Preachers of Postulans State Convention. Rev. Clark was forceful and convincing in his discourse. He told his hearers to build on a solid foundation; that true greatness starts from within and goes out. He discussed at length on the question, "What is the meaning of my life?" What part of God's program are we going to show that there is a living God and in saying, souls for his kingdom? The sermon was closed with a tribute and a few well chosen words of praise to Pastor White, saying he had manifested himself as a real leader in the past nine years, and commended the fear as stand he has taken for right in the place of large numbers and much drift. And he exhibited him to preach on until theلزات كوود (God shall triumph every A neat sum of $800 was presented by White as a token of appreciation for the credit for the whole program put over. Mrs. Sarah Gersmann, chidhiy of the general committee, devised the credit for the whole program put over. to be known as the White Selling Club.

With the institution of the passover the order of time. The common year was rolling on as usual, but with reference to God's chosen people the order was interrupted from this event. 2. The date (v. 23). This lamb must be a male without blamish, indicating that it must be both representative and perfect. 3. The lamb was killed by the whole community. This shows that it was not for the individual only, but for the entire assembly. The lamb was not sufficient. It must be killed, for "without the shedding of blood of the lamb" was required. 4. The blood of the slain lamb was to be placed upon the side posts and lintels of the door (v. 7). When the door was passed by the lamb he passed over the houses where the door posts were spritched with blood. He was convinced that a substitute had been offered for them. 5. Israel feeding upon the lamb (v. This denotes fellowship. The lamb roasted signified the action of fire in God's judgment at the cross. The head, the legs and purtenance thereof show that in the substitutionary sacrifice the understanding, the walk and all that pertains thereto were involved. This shows that the atonement of Jesus Christ involved His obedience to law as well as His suffering in the stead of His own. The eating of unleavened bread signifies that no sin is connected with the or the allowed in fellowship with Christ. It is even signifies corruption (Cor. 5:78). The Israelites did not put away leaven to be saved from the destroying angel, but being saved because under the shadow of the blood they put away leaven, that is, evil, in order to have fellowship with their Redeemer. The bitter herbs connected with this feast suggest the bitterness of Christ's suffering. 6. They ate the passover ready for action (v. 11). Their loins were girded, their shoes were on their feet, and a staff in hand. The girding of the loins betokened separation from sin, and preparation and readiness for service. The feet being shod indicated their willingness and readiness to march out of Egypt. The staff in hand indicated their nature as pilgrims leaning upon the support of the themselves. They were to leave behind them, the place of death and darkness and march to the promised land. 7. the uncleared denied participation in the feast (vv. 48-49). (II. 40) The significance of the requirement is that only those who have become new creatures by the power of the Cross right to sit at the passover feast. (II. 41) The Significance of the Passover (vv. 42-43). It was a memorial institution, calling to mind the deliverances of the Israelites from Egyptian bondage. This event from generation to generation when they came into the land. (II. 42) The Awful Judgment (vv. 20, 30). At midnight the Lord mooted all the first-born of Israel from generation to generation that sat on his brouse unborn the first-born of the captive that was in burgage, and all the first-born of the captive that was in burgage. In every home throughout Egypt where the blood was not found. A great and unbelievable event for there was not a house where there was not one-dose. (II. 43) The Great Deliverance (vv. 15-16). So mighty was the stroke that Pharoh called for Moses in the night and requested him to be groom with his fools to borrow. The Israelites made ready for their journey. They demanded of the Egyptians jewels of silver and gold and rament.

In presenting his pleadings before the judge of the Sixty-First District Court last Friday, Ned B. Morris, formerly of Palestine, as attorney for "Rolling Bouncer" Morris, "Get Everything" Kepple and others of the "illy-white", Negro-hating, office-seeking group, in a courtroom in which he is tried by a base appeal to racial hatred and rancor; citing in his document that the editor of The Informer was an advocate of "social equality", a "disturbing element in the community"; "trying to foist himself upon the white members of the republican executive committee", and such mottomry. The lawyer endeavored to read into the record an editorial, which he said appeared in an issue of The Informer during 1920, where we contended that every time our race asks for justice and a man's chance the cry is raised that we are seeking "social equality" and are striving for "Negro domination." When this eminent lawyer, for a number of years connected to the legal staff of a Texas railroad, discovered that the editorial he was reading was weakening rather than strengthening his cause, he ceased reading said article quite abruptly. He also read a number of affidavits from so-called republican leaders, all swearing, deposing and averting that this editor has never been a republican, and that he has always sought to injure the party's cause in the county, state and nation. Nichols, these affidavits, signed a litter Roy "Behave" Nichols, these affidavits at Haitian and court chairman during the memorable political battles here during 1920. This federal office holder took good pains not to mention the fact that he was a delegate to the last republican convention in Cleveland, Ohio, and that when the Texas delegation was asked to stand together in the room of the credentials committee, he ("little good far off" in, fact, stood beside the Editor of The Informer. Why did Roy pull off such stunt at Cleveland? Was it because he knew the postal rules and regulations strictly and expressly forbid any political activity on the part of federal employees, and because he was a Republican delegate, the editor was going to expose him either at Cleveland or upon return to Houston? Since Roy was merely holding the county chairmanship in the hope of landing a federal post, isn't he satisfied now, and isn't the poor fellow contented with the plums and crumbs that are in his possession? Why didn't Morris, Nichols, Kepple, Lee and others inform their democratic lawyer that the real republican party knows neither race, creed or color, and that such a document can cause the Texas organization and the national party a deal of trouble in pivotal elections. Did Morris and his "gang" stop to realize that such a nafarious and insidious appeal to race prejudice and the inference that the republican party in Houston, Harris County and Texas must continue to remain a "white man's party," will make nice campaign materials for the congressional and senatorial elections in the doubtful states of the South and Central West during the autumn election; and that even in the presidential election of 1928 this "famous document" can play an important part in said national campaign? Why did Morris not build up a strong party in Houston and Harris County, why didn't they nominate candidates for precinct chairmen in all of the precincts in the city and county, instead of refusing and failing to place a single name on the official ballot for these positions? (Under the primary election, laws of Texas persons aspiring for precinct chairmanship must be imposed on just like candidates for other elective Going a distance further, why are Morris and his political tricksters so determined to try to keep the majority of the republican electors from exercising their constitutional rights on election day, Saturday, July 24th? The political forceensight enough to know that no court was going to permit them to pass an ex post facto, retroactive and unconstitutional resolution that would impose upon the voters any test other than the one allowed by state statute in primary elections. "white-wit" politicians hope to execute the famous "Tommie Plutocratic" Lee resolution, a la Creager, or were they merely trying to bluff the colored voters and other citizens whom they suspected voted for Mrs. Ferguson, democratic candidate for governor of Texas, in the 1924 election? The only candidate who would poll a large vote in the primary election is to place several candidates in the field for the various offices, and then wage a real campaign in the interest The Houston Informer of these candidates, throwing open the doors to every qualified voter in the state, district, county and city. Since Morris, Nichols, Kepple, Lee and the rest of the "lily-white" boys are so bitter against the real republicans casting their votes, Morris is asking the voters. The Informer suggests that we (the voters) retire them from public service and party office, by drawing a black line through the name of R. B. Morris, printed on the republican official ballot as a candidate for county chairman, and write in with our pencils this name: C. F. Richardson. If the colored voters, along with Houston and Harris County will take the name of Morris on election day and scratch the name of Morris and write in the name of Richardson for republican county chairman; also scratch the name of H. H. Haines of Houston, and leave untouched the name of E. P. Scott of Corpus Christi, as candidate for governor on the republican ticket, the retirement of "lily-white" regime will be easily accomplished. The "lily-white" regime will make a crooked move, we shall contest the election, having already taken a bill of exception to the judge's recent ruling. Fellow-citizens, the republican party in Harris County and Texas is in the hands of men actuated by selfish motives and anterior purposes, and this primary election of Saturday, July 24, 1926, offers us our best chance to rid the party and society of a corrupt politician. We are not going to rob nob with blacks in the North and then read said blacks out of the G. O. P. in the South, hoping thereby to land many democratic converts. Let every local minister, from his pulpit July, 18, urge his parishioners and members to fulfill their duties as citizen of this commonwealth, by voting for the restoration of the republican party in Texas to ALL THE PEOPLE on Saturday, July 24, 1926. Our battle-cry is, "Remember 1920!" while our slogan is, "Let's Right a Wrong With our Pencils." Let's all get busy and work from now until the polls close at 7 p. m. on election day, to help Richardson and his followers in this city and county. Selah. "RACE LEADERS" SELLING OUT THE RACE! WHAT DOES IT PROFIT A RACE MAN TO BE HANDSOMELY REWARD ED FOR "SELLING OUT" AND BETRAYING HIS OWN RACE AND REBELING LOSERLY RACE INTERESTS RACIAL INTELLIGENCE THE REBELIOUS RACE, AND CONFIDENCE IN THE PEOPLE OTHER RACES, WHO KNOW THAT SUCH A MAN IS INCINERATE AND ACTUATED BY SELFISH, MERCENARY MOTIVES! "Charakter admits, in his "hodger," what we say and always about capable people. He admits that he is not even decisive the situation; yet in the next breath Love condones and approves the "lily-water" policy of his patters masters and lords, showing conclusively that his brains are not the same as his hearts, and is sensible, smart and discreet politician!" CITIZEN HAS MORE RIGHT TO ANNOUNCE AND ASPIRE FOR THE G. O. P. COUNTY CHAIRMANSHIP (A PARTY THAT SPRANG INTO EXISTENCE PRINCIPALLY UPON THE ISSUE OF HUMAN RIGHTS AS THEY RELATED TO NEGRO SLAVES) THAN LOVE DID WHEN HE RESORTED TO COUNT PROCEDINGS IN HIS RACE. "THE RACE MAN IN THE MARY IN A CITY ELECTION!" (STICK A PIN HERE.) "PLEASE SIR!" The old man is consistent only by his inconsistency, and he seems to be graven and heavy of heart because virtually all the local ministers, doctors, and lawyers are in the same place." Really, minnows are safe: we are after whales! (Now bladder that all you supுகized, blabbinging blatherkites and swashbucklerals) PELLOW-CITIZENS, DON'T LOVE, "INSPIRE” ATTACKS AND THE GLOBE IS NOT A BURDSON. YOUR_AND_YOUR FAMILY FOR OUR STAND AGAINST "LILY-WHITE" REPUBLICANISM DETER YOU IN YOUR DUTY OR DAMPEN YOUR ARDOR; BUT LET IT SERVE AS AN INCENTIVE TO SPUR US ON TO THE VOTING BOOTHS AND VICTORY ON SATURDAY, JULY 24, 1926. Therefore, comrades and friends, let's march the polls on Saturday, draw a black line through the name of H. H. Haines of Houston, the "lily-white" line of the city's city of Los Angeles, and be unnoticed and unmarked the name of E. P. Scott of Corpus Christi, the Lincoln republican and Wurachcand candidate for governor on the republican ticket. (Scott's name is primary of the office of the U.S. Presidemt of New York.) Finally, the three-thirteen and)}_{1} the name of R. B. Morris, candidates for county chairman on the republican ticket, take our pencils and write in the name of C. F. RICHARDSON, for the name of the city's city of Los Angeles, and the vote of the vote, so we have been informed, but every vote thrown out will strengthen us in a contest of the election in a court of equity, and thus these "lily-white" emperors and partisan autocrats will only be playing with fire. IN THIS BE TREASON, SEDITION, HERESY, RADICALISM, AGITATION IN THE WORK OF THE INNOVATION COUPLELS OF ALL THE WORK OF THE INTERCRACIAL COMMITTEE, WHICH IS CAUSING "CON STANT NOISE" LOVB TO SHEID BUCH FOUNTAINS OF GROCODILE TEARS AND BOASTS OF HIS WONDERFUL AMOUNT OF NON-SENSED, THEN MAKE THE MOST OF IT! SELAH. LOCAL "LILY-WHITES TRYING TO INVOKE ART. 3107! The Informer has been reliably informed from republican campaign headquarters, First National Bank, that the Harris County republican executive committee are going to invoke Article 3107, General Election Laws of Texas, which states: "In on event shall a Negro be eligible to participate in a DEMOCRATIC PARTY PRIMARY ELECTION held in the State of Texas, and should a Negro vote in a DEMOCRATIC PRIMARY ELECTION, such ballot shall be void and election officials shall not count the same." This statute is very plain, and makes no reference, direct or indirect, concerning republican primary elections, and if these elections are to be held to invoke this law and make it applicable to their party, they may be afforded an opportunity to say, "Good morning, judge!" Furthermore, if this law prohibits Negroes from participating in the republican party primary election, why is the Creger regime spending so much money in San Antonio and the 14th conference of the Negro vote for their democratic candidate, Knetsch, who is opposing Wurzbach for renomination to the lower house of the United States congress? This is ninth bluff and bull, and The Informer argues our people and all republican voters to march to the polls Saturday, July 24, 1920, and offer to cast their ballots in said election. The Informer argues that the legality of said election will be tested in a court of equity. Maybe this is one of the reasons why these local republican bosses have failed to include precinct numbers 25, 30, 47, 48 and 75, heavy colored boxes, in their pollting lists as published in the legality of Wednesday. The fight is on—"and we don't mean maybe." CIMBEE'S RAMBLINGS Deer Gua: I aint no pollerishun, ner has I inny arefe ter be wun; in fact, I aint got ernuff liggun ter be er good pollerishun.
