POLLLOWAY 140 Former Editor Explains Baptists' Sherman Rift; Avers Harrison Winner The Baptist forces of the B. M. and E. Convention of Texas, held full sway in the city of Sherman, last week, Harmony Baptist Church and Rev. Joseph Wilson entertaining. The sessions of the convention began Wednesday noon at the C. M. E. Church. Rev E. Arlington Wilson of Dallas, who has functioned as president of the convention for the past twelve months, called the convention to order. No one had to be remotely akin to King Solomon to see that an overwhelming majority of the message were on hand to change the official complexion of the convention and especially the head. An injunction issued by District Judge Wilcox on the prayer of Rev. W. L. Dickson of Dallas and others, restrained Rev. E. Arlington Wilson et al, from participating officially in the sessions of the convention, alleging that Wilson was not duly elected president at Paris in 1927 and therefore was ineligible to set in that capacity. The commenters of the conference were to be elected by electing Rev. T. George, Jr., temporary president. Other temporary offices were duly elected. The permanent organization was then perfected by electing Dr. E. L. Harrison of Houston, president by a vote of 420 to 128. Pandemonium reigned when the count showed that Harrison of the B. M. and E. Convention by a vote of more than 3 to 1, had gloriously triumphed. The overwhelming majority was not a surprise to anybody familiar with condition. The conference was held in the B. M. and E. Convention. Dr. Harrison was the choice of Texas Baptist last year in Paris but the unholy methods employed by the opposition defeated the will of the rank and file of this division of God's flying squadron.

This case emphasizes passengers in interstate traffic are not subject to the crow regulations of Southern states without equal accommodation being furnished by the railroad. The case first came to the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People in July, 1927, and the N. A. A. C. pald $100 for the taking of testimony in Florida, and asked Mr. Hays to handle the case. It was conflated by Mr. Brooks that she had purchased a Pullman ticket from New York to Orlando, Florida, and that at Jacksonville, the conductor told her to go into the jim-crow car. She refused, and further contended that the conductor telegraphed ahead to Palatka where two officers took her from the train and put her in jail. She was kept there all night and next day fined $500 and costs. Mr. Hays, after carrying the case to court, reported that the Atlantic Coast Line Railroad had offered a settlement which Mr. Brooks agreed to accept.

W. Brown, colored veterinary doctor, against a plan to cut him from his hospital in Fort Scott, by city ordinance. Mr. Scott in his letter to the N. A. A. C. P. writes that: "the court in granting the temporary injunction under the opinion was not completely ended the case ... so all that remains in the case is for me to take a judgment in default. ... Will further advise that the city of Fort Scott passed another ordinance directed at Mr. Brown, and I immediately notified the city attorney what we intended to do in the event Dr. Brown was arrested, so there has been no evidence of the action and is practising his profession and doing nicely." Dr. Brown, who was born in Fort Scott, was the first Negro to receive a degree from the Kansas State Agricultural College in the division of veterinary medicine, in 1912. After teaching for a year at Tuskegee he established himself in practice in his native city, buying and fitting up a hospital building. In response to petitions signed by the J. W. Brown, the city council, in 1928, issued an ordinance on February 14, 1928, making it unlawful for anyone to keep infected animals for treatment within 100 feet of a private dwelling. The discriminatory nature of the ordinance was shown when a neighboring white veterinarian, in the same block, was allowed to continue practising unmolested, while Dr. Brown was arrested. P. V.

Without that vote such states would be Democratic, as a majority of the white voters are Democrats. Without the Negro vote none would be Democratic, since Kentucky, Missouri, Maryland, and Oklahoma, would ever go Republican." The above declaration was made last Monday morning by John H.

There is none. "Border states in the days of obsolete states, by the white majority, did not have the foresight to clarify their racial situation as the result of the reason of the influx of Southern Negroes and Northern Republicans, they cannot do it.

THE HOUSTON INFORMER, SATURDAY, OCTOBER 27, 1928 LOCAL RUTHITES HONOR ESTEEMED HOUSTON LEADER As a tribute of respect to a earthy and highly esteemed officer of their organization, the officers and members of Household of Ruth No. 219 on October 22, complimented Mrs. M. M. McDonald, 2502 McKinney, Ave. with a party, which was given at the residence of the honoree. According to one of the leading members of this household, the members of Household No. 219 have long desired to show Mrs. McDonald, in your way, just in what high esteem she is held by them. So, when Mrs. McDonald returned from Chicago, III. where she had been attending the sessions of the B. M. C., as a representative of Household No. 219, the plan to stage this party in her honor was conceived and staged. Mrs. McDonald has been the most noble governor of this local household for the past twenty-four years, and by her healthy and devotion to the affairs of the order and her interest in the city member of the households, she has no interwoven herself into the hearts of her sisters that if she so desired she could hold her office indefinitely. One Ruthite remarked in this connection, that "no night is too dark, nor too cold which would deter Mrs. McDonald from coming to the assistance of a Ruthite in need." On the night mentioned, the members assembled at her residence rendered the following program: Song: "Love Lifted Me," prayer by Dr. J. H. Lovell; song: recitation, "Chill's Prayer," by Marjorie R. Harmon; paper, "Loyalty," by Mrs. Elmira Fonsworthy-Murphy; presentation of Mrs. M. M. McDonald, by Mrs. Ohio Phillips-Brown; solo, Mrs. Rosa Grandson; response to remarks of Mrs. McDonald, Mrs. H. P. Harmon, who used as her theme, "Happiness Derived From Service." The honoree was the recipient of many beautiful gifts, among which were two lovely floral designs and a cake from her household. Dr. J. H. Lovell, Mrs. McDonald's pastor, spoke very pleasingly of the object of the occasion and paid great tribute to her as a church worker, and spoke of the high esteem in which she is held by her fellow church workers. A delectable menu consisting of salad on lettuce leaves, saltine crackers, ice cream and cake was served.

Only fumbles and ultimately prevented Howard's scoring two other touchdowns. One occurred on the corner foww yard line. The third quarter after Rona had skirted right end for the team's yardage and 15 yards for holding. Another tough break for the home team occurred on the ball with the onhone 10-yard line. Howard was penalized 15 yards for coaching from the sideline. Howard was in danger, and the strength of Howard's forward wall and secondary defense was easily manifested by Morehouse's and in every quarter, the visitors were never in scoring position. In fact, the Cuebler Gobblers made first down. The opposition to the Houston team was entirely too weak for the spread of the Golden Eagles. Almost every player on the team made a touchdown in the game. The team made a touchdown in the game Coach Lockett used his second and third string man Horse Wesley and third string man Horse Wesley.

Waco, Texas.—The Bishop Bear completely outlasted and outplayed the Paul Quinn Tigers in a football game, 14-0 in favor of the Bears. The Tigers eleven had the Bears in the first quarter, but Mumford would not be denied in the later stages of the encounter. The Tigers down in the later stages of the game. The outstanding feature of the game was the Waco Wattkins, Houston product, returning a punt for a touchdown. The second touchdown of the cap of Cap, Cal Fulloy was in rare form as he boooted the oval through the up-ridges for the additive kick. The kick was made by a forward pass to the end, and ended in a forfeit field and better teams to subdue. Their next game is with the Dragons of Austin, Saturday, Oct. 27. James Dorn, Houston High School object, who received his first kick from Washington coach, R. G. Lockett, was the outstanding one that was able to hold on through the Bishop line for short game. The following is a summary of men in the game: Paul Quinn Position R.E. Bishop Bishop R.E. Wakefield Gentry R.E. Wakefield Merrit R.G. Rettig Merrit R.G. Rettig Williams L.G. Flourney Dunnington L.T.

Through the entire game Morehouse was not able to gain one first down, through the line or around the ends. The visitors made only two first downs, completed forward passes, Howard's backs broke off of tine and skided the ends for a total of nine first downs. The defense was the longest of which was a 45-yard pass from Marshall to Simpson. The Morehouse players who stood out were Jeffrey and Joseph in kicking.

Nashville, Tenn—On an ideal football afternoon, before an estimated crowd of 3,500 football enthillants, the well-coached team from Wilberforce University stacked up against the opposing team. Neither team came on the field as a favorite, but Wilberforce had blood in their eyes because of a stinging defeat administered to them on their last journey to Nashville. The Flask team came out with a wild sight of lollipop at the same time celebrating their temporary bleachers. Many out-of-town guests from Kentucky, Indiana, Missouri, and Tennessee journeyed to jeep trailers where were amused and thrown into the spirit of the occasion by the young women cheer leaders of Fisk University. The Fisk team was outweighed ten pounds to the man, but it was generally conceded that Fisk outplayed their opponents in both halves of the game. The defense of both teams worked much better than the offense. The Fisk forwards were upon the Wilberforce runners many times before they got started and the Wilberforces were alert in intercepting passes, some of which may have proved dangerous from a scoring point of view. Both teams showed that they were well coached; it was nigh impossible to pick out a star on either side and it was a game of team play rather than a chance for individual stars. Not an opportunity for long spectacular runs but for short, steady, consistent gains only. Yost was outstanding while in the game but near the end of the first quarter was removed along with Nixon of Wilberforce for unnecessary roughness. After Yost left the game Edwards, right tackle for Fisk, did some fine kicking, getting Fisk out of what might have become a bad hole. The most hair-making point of the game was in the last quarter with one player back for a kick and Coleman, left for a kick, through the line and bleached a kick. The ball and running 15 yards, placing the ball on the field, with half-time to play Goe exited a forward pass to Cox 7 yards and gained one gain of yard. The whistle and the game ended with the ball in the force's 7-yard line, with a score of 0-0. Fisk outplayed Wilberforce 10 first down to 3.

PAGE SIX—FIRST IN COMPLETENESS IS AL SMITH AFRAID OF THE SOUTH? Alfred Smith is not the first American politician for whom the Negroes of the United States have proved a most embarrassing stumbling block. Butelson has the implications of this situation been so clear to all of us that Mr. Smith is posting as liberal. His attitude toward super-power, toward non-parties appointment to office, and toward prohibition give him some color of right to this definition. Toward the greater and ever more powerful party, he is making tentative approach by increasing income and ownership of property, he is making tentative approach by increasing income and ownership of American farmer. But all this does not prove his case, and does not make his appeal to American liberals by making a more reasonable and made depriveable effort to reassure entrenched American capital that he can be will be considerable of corporations like General Motors; and that he will be behind the tariff. All this would make liberal support of Mr. Smith debateable where there can be no debate. Mr. Smith is silent about the Negro. Why? Certainly it is not because he has no need of the Negro vote. Migration from South to North and from country to city, has increased the effective vote which Negroes cast very appreciably over 1916, and considerably over 1920 and 1924. We must, of course, depend upon estimates instead of actual figures, but in States where the real battles of this campaign are apparently being fought, there is a large Negro vote in New York, 150,000; in New Jersey, 75,000; in Ohio, 125,000; in Indiana, 70,000; in Illinois, 175,000; in West Virginia, 50,000; in Kentucky, 125,000; in Tennessee, 225,000; in North Carolina, 25,000; in California, 40,000. Even Massachusetts has 21,000 Negro voters, and Connecticut, 15,000. There are probably 60,000 Negro voters in Michigan and 125,000 in Missouri, Kansas has 35,000, Delaware, 15,000, and Maryland, 140,000. Of course, in the Southern hinterland, there is little chance that any appreciable Negro vote will be cast or counted. And yet in Virginia, South Carolina, Georgia, Florida, Texas, and Oklahoma the Negro vote of 100,000 might conceivably be of importance if any real rift were made in the governing oligarchy. This is an asset that no astute politician—and no one has accused Mr. Smith of not being astute—would ordinarily neglect. Moreover, the Negroes are incensed against the Republican party and against Mr. Hoover as never before. Some defection from the ranks of Negro Republicans was felt as early as 1912, and Woodrow Wilson went out of his way to encourage it. He openly promised Negroes "Justice and not, mere grudging justice." Led by the late Bishop Alexander Walters, a Negro bureau was established at Democratic headquarters and a considerable Negro vote was cast for Woodrow Wilson. But the Wilson administration disappointed Negroes even more than he disappointed other people. Wilson refused to appoint the fact finding commission which he had promised to Oswald Garrison Villard; he refused to recognize the Negro in any important appointments; his whole Negro program succumbed to the Southern oligarchy, except during the war scare. By 1916 the revolt was well, over and Negroes went back and In 1920, Cox made no appeal to the colored vote and it was almost all white. In 1922, he even revolt again began. Davis was a Mivorate among West Virginia Northwestern, Boston lawyer, many colored voters bolted Coulson. All but this revolt began in 1923, brewing among Negroes in 1928. If Al Smith would raise a finger to American Negroes that, while he was at least white, he could not be classed as an African-American, any Democrat has ever received. For the first time in the history of the United States, colored politicians, like R. R. Church of Tennessee, refused to serve upon the colored advisory committee, and there was every sign pledged his organization against However, and there was every sign guber to reach large proportions. Not were the reasons for this far more widespread repudiation of Coledge in 1924 when he estranged in 1928. Moreover, Hoover's alienation on them and their problem with the South African South Africa. He has said not a single public word against lynching or dislocation and uplift. When it was brought out, he was a discriminating outrageously against Negroes suffering from the racial violence he witnessed, afterward he named a Negro committee of his friends, the Negro League, and when this committee confirmed the evidences of discrimination, he refused to let the committee publish its In addition to this, Hoover has joined in the effort to that, in with those active Southern politicians who propose, but not support, the disfranchisement, to but prevent the organization of any effective minority position in what he Negro has preserved, and to well that the disfranchisement of the blacks them into the hands of venal politicians, Colleges, Bureaus, Harding and all Republican candidates receive gladly the political support of those men in the convention. Mr. Hoover proceeds to have supported him. It was very easy to find evidence for accusing Mr. Hoover of being a vice president in public office. But the same accusations were with white politicians. There is no reason to think that the accusations were any more true in the case of the colored Powell Howard than in the case of the white secretary to President Coldenford Howard was political organization presented, while Sleep was put in charge of the Negro political leader in the South regardless of his standing—he was a slave and brave—has been unceremoniously ousted by Howard and his lieutenant. Here, then, was a chance and an unusual chance for Al Smith, and not simply a chance for political maneuvering. It was a chance to attack in its stronghold the central danger of American democracy; the thing that makes it impossible for the American people today to vote logically or coherently on any subject whatsoever; and that incubus is the bloc of 114 to 139 electoral votes which are out of politics in the sense that no political discussion, no appeal to intelligence or justice, has any influence on them. This was the time for a really great statement. The governor of New York might have stepped into the arena and said: "I believe in democracy. I believe that no one is good enough to cast vote for his neighbor. I believe that poverty and misfortune, even if coupled with slavery and color, are in them which are not reason for caste and disfranchisement. If in spite of misfortune, poverty, and handicap a man meets the qualifications laid down for voting, he ought not to be interfered with by lawlessness and lynching. Education and encouragement ought freely to be offered, and every opportunity for development placed before such people." Is there any reason why any American citizen, Democrat, Republican or Socialist, should not subscribe to such a creed and publicly announce it? If there is, then American democracy is already a failure. If there is not, then Alfred Smith ought to have made such a statement. Moreover, I violate no confidence in saying that the administration urged to do it and that he refused. A number of enthusiastic colored folk and friends of colored people put before the advisers of Governor Smith several possible statements which he might make to show that at least he was not an enemy of the American Negro. He refused to say a single word. He refused to let even indirectly anything go out from his headquarters which should seem to represent him as friendly to black men. Negro Demandath headquarters were not all established but they were not allowed to have offices in the regular Democratic headquarters but were given a small "jim-crow" annex where they exist without real authority, without explicit recognition, and without the slightest initiative. On the other hand, explicit and repeated anti-Negro propaganda is being sent out by Democratic headquarters. When the klan accused Governor Smith of having as his principal director of the National Network, Stenge, the democratic headquarters at Washington on September 8 sent out the following release: "Governor Smith does not have, and never has had, a Negro ethnographic museum in the state of New York under his administration this has been given to him, and given in the South, to wit: porters, janitors, charnet women, etc., things about this statement is that it is perfectly true. In all Government agencies only awarded recognizing Negroes in any way. He has twice been awarded a colored magnitude to Harlem. He has never given a Negro any major appointment. He has solemnly given his appointment to Harlem and it is doubtful he is he met personally in all his career a half dozen At one time the leaders of his party in New York City recommended he be made head of the new Negro regiment authorized under the direction of the governor. This regiment had not been organized because of the question of colored officers. The State National Guard had no colored officers, and gave as a aid Charles Chase, none was questioned. Charles Chase was in the regular army and a West Point student, was a man not only of stained clothes but of military ability. The army would have been perfectly willing to lend him to the regiment and he would not Smith was asked to appoint him. He peremptarily refrained and placed a white man at the head of the color guard. Now why should a man otherwise in many respects liberal and likable who has himself come up from the common people, show himself to be ill-lύχنی to be so good as the Negro. It is because Smith has been afraid of the South, and is so today. He probably first ignored the Negro because, with East Side ignorance, he knew nothing about him, and shared the East side's economies' disillusion of his labor-related activities; dislike which was back of the Irish anti-Negro riots before and during the war, in Philadelphia and New York. As Smith began to develop in political power and ambition, he recognized that if he wanted to carry the South he must be more modern. The Negro wording Southern traditions. He has been so, and, in the future, according to Congressman Hill of Alabama, "Governor-Smith says he will let us handle the Negro problem as we see." Fit that we could be "I am again, his liqueur program and his religion have stirred up enough trouble and revolt south of the Mason and Dixon line. Smith is determined, therefore, not to say a single word that will enable his enemies and the Ku Klux K帮者 to be often the title "Black-lover" upon him. This is unfortunate for the Negro but it is far more unfortunate for the American people. It means that no attempt to liberalize either the Republican or the Democratic party, or to start a new third-party movement, has caused as long as the present disillusion of the Negro unremறable solid South. Few Ameri- THE HOUSTON INFORMER, SATURDAY, OCTOBER 27, 1928 If now the Southern Democratic bloc cannot become liberal, what URGES NEGROES TO BACK SMITH IN NEW ORLEANS New Orleans, La.—(ANP)—Dr. Jay J. Peters, president of the Universal Negro Improvement Association on Sunday night in an address at Liberty Hall, 2919 Danneel Street, told 800 persons that "Governor Long, using the editorial pages of the Daily States as a medium, is stirring strife among the Negroes of New Orleans." “The Negro in the South will vote for Governor Smith, just as many thousands of those living in the North will do, for the Negro realizes that the election of Mr. Hoover will not affect the Negro in the South,” he said. “The Negroes of New Orleans, as the Negroes of all America, will vote for Mr. Smith because of his fine character and his kindly spirit in dealing with the Negro race.” Dr. Peters criticized his race for not asking the Negro for an out asking aid of white organizations "Unless the Negro becomes more aware of the need to wait when the white race will lose patience with Negroes, the Negro squarely and given him justice, and the Nei-ness of the Negro race lies in the hands of Negroes alone and it remains for Negroes to take the sole and loyal subjects of the white race." The occasion was the eighth anniversary of the Negro's arrival in Maracay, founder who was depleted. NEGRO ATTORNEY DESERTS HOOVER; BACKS DE PRIEST Chicago, 111—(ANP)—Declarating that he did not care who was elected president and that he had heeded his connection with the Republican national committee and the Democratic national committee. Atty. Anayon Pawer, member of the executive committee of the Colored Vote's Division of the Republican national committee, and Atty. Philip High School, president over by Mr. Zachary Payn, gave every other interest in the support of Oscar DePriest for congress. Payn's attentions due to the fact that Mr. DePriest has rallied his followers to support Negro leadership and urged them to refute for vote certain Republican is for Hoover, against the Republican candidate for state's attorney, more important to him that Mr. DePriest's candidate for state's attorney or a Republican were elected to the presidency. Mr. DePriest has indicted him that he did not support Democratic candidates for election. chance is there that the Northern Democrats will become liberal? None at all. In all States they may temporarily follow liberal principles. But nationally they must do as Smith and others do in blood racy and repudiate the simplest principles of democracy. There are a number of hopeful voters who continue to believe that the very ineptitude of the two old parties in the Democratic and Republican triumph third party. These dreamers insist that this already unpopular party can only "agree." This is nonseason. When and where have advocates come to vow on main matters of reform? Certainly not at the birth of the Re-formation in England; at the birth of the Liberal or party in England. Widely diversely positioned into shape at successively earlier times as certain of them gain population support. By a slow process of consolidation, the party became capable in the United States because the one political party, the Democrats, can demise; it uses the political power of disfrianchise Negroes and disfrianchise a minority party that any diversion of Liberals from the Republican party simply throws in more money than was the clear case in the celebrated election of 1912. It was the largest party when at the last moment voters became convinced that a vote for Lauren a practically a vote for the Democrats. The same situation is before us to welcome our wives for Al Smith, and many will welcome our blessing. will not let Smith take a single blessing with the Republicans. They will stand with the Republicans, for high protection, for disfurbance, for an army and army which they overwhelmingly dominate. On the other hand, the Republicans will take for Norman Thomas they throw away just as surely as when they vote Norman Thomas has no chance to should receive. 6,000,000 poplars votes. All of which shows that the Republicanism of the Negroes; it is a problem of democratic government in the United States. PLEASANT BROTHERS CLEANERS 2003 DOWLING ST.

B. Norris, preacher, is a very determined man, in the opinion of members of the Fortieth Avenue Church here, and especially so, according to the way Deacon Daniels figures. Coming to the church to preach, the deacon had the temerity to try and argue with the pastor concerning whether or not he should preach in that particular church. He didn't argue long. Rev. Norris is said to have wielded a mean axe handle with very evident results on the deacon's head, and after getting the deacon on the floor, sat on him to keep him subdued, meanwhile keeping other members of the congregation away by brandishing a pistol. Eventually, deputy aneriffs arrived on the scene and the party was broken up by the minister being removed to jail. Just what caused the row in the first place, has not been ascertained. DR. C. B.

I hope you will have no objection to our making use of them and I am taking the liberty of forwarding copies to Washington, because of the weight your name carries throughout the country.” “I have just returned from an inspection of the camp set up for Negro refugees in the north end of the city. I am going to ask the advisers and give me a statement as to the facilities afforded your people there. As far as I can see everything has been done, I am not sure that you will be for these refugees. The location of the camp is the best in the city, and I am also dressing station for any emergencies. Water is supplied at numerous positions throughout the camp. The planning has been tents quite adequate, I believe, to the family’s need. The effort has been made to provide you with the things that you have to do and to provide you with the necessary for ordinary family life. I have no need to do so for any purpose in a very adequate manner. Sanitation is taken care of in the best possible way.” “I am very�oply important in order to indicate you that we are actually doing what we think is right in all matters pertaining to the development of our country.

INTERMEDIATE AND SENIOR TOP- IC—What Our Pastor Does for Us. YOUNG PEOPLE AND ADULT TOF- IC—Paul, Shepherd of the Churches. 1.—Paul's Visit to Greece and Milletus (29:1-16). Two incidents marked this trip: 1. The Jews laid wait for him (vv. 1-5). This plot hilified him to retrace his steps through Macedonia instead of choosing a more rapid sea voyage. 2. Fellowshipping with the disciplines at Troms (vv. 6-16). He met with them around the table of the Lord and spoke words of encouragement. While preaching here, Eutychus in a deep sleep, fell from a window and was killed. Paul restored his life, thus giving to the disciples a sign of divine power which was greatly needed at that time. II. Paul's Farewell to the Ephesian Elders (20: 17,38). His destination was Jerusalem. He was pressing this forward with all speed, but on account of the inloading of the ship he was obliged to wait at Tire for seven days. During this delay he searched out the disciplines who lived in that city. While here certain disciplines said Paul should not go to Jerusalem. The information which these disciplines received by the Spirit was doubtless the same as that given to Agabus (vv. 10, 11). Agabus told exactly what the Spirit said, which sets right what the Spirit displaces seemed to say. We should give need to prophesying, but should prove their utterances. Let all who claim to speak with the Holy Spirit give the exact words so that they can be subjected to legitimate tests. The same Spirit which showed to these disciplines that suffering awaited Paul revealed unto him the same suffering and sent him forward into it. IV. Paul Tarrying in Philip's House (vv. 7-14). Resuming their journey they paused briefly at Ptolemais to greet the brethren there, after which they went to Chesaure. Here they took up their shode with Philip who had no successfully wrought in the early days of the church. His four daughters doubtless are mentioned to show that the Spirit's gifts are not confined to one sex. V. Paul at Jerusalem (vv. 15-17). The brethren at Jerusalem, gladly received him and his companions. Paul's lodging place was with an old disple.

Morton, civil service commissioner of New York City, will deliver a picture of the man who for eight years has guided the destiny of the city. "Never in his official life have I known Gov. Smith to do or say what he did, but in gaining the support of any group or class," it is therefore, my belief that if elected, he will not be guided by decisions by the race creed, or color of the individuals concerned," said Morton.

Dowthard said that he dressed and followed the men out into the street. Then he became gangicious and started running, the witness testified. Parells levelled a second-off shot gun at Dowthard and shot him in the area. The party then overtook Dowthard and beat him severely, he said. The other star witness heard was Cornelius, who left the witness stand and identified five of the men who kidnapped and beat him. Later, according to Cornelius, he was driven to the “election jail” and held there as prisoner all day. NEGROSS EQUAL.

Not being satisfied with charges and counter charges against Hon. Herbert Hoover, Republican presidential nominee, regarding his alleged pro-Negro attitude and relations, a former governor of Missouri, who was in a position in circulation a baseless canard that Mr. Hoover, during a visit to Mound Bayou, Mississippi, attended a colored social function and danced with a colored woman! According to this Southern fabrication, Mr. Hoover practiced "social equality" with the colored inhabitants of this exclusive region of Missouri, and the rehabilitation work subsequent to the Mississippi River flood; and therefore he is unfit to be president of the United States of America! I'm it funny how so many Smith-Democrats are denouncing and anathematizing members of their party for their intolerance towards the African-American culture, Catholic religion, while these same denouncing Democrats are exhibiting a worse form of bigotry, intolerance and hatred against both Mr. Hoover and the Negro race without any justification or reason? In branding and exposing this canard of the former Mississippi governor, Mr. Hoover is issuing a statement in which stated that Mr. Hoover only passed through Mound Bayou on his special train, and that his train only stopped at the station for 15 minutes for the former secretary of commerce, who was director of Mississippi delta rehabilitation commission, to receive an expression of the gratitude of the colored citizens in Missouri for their service, by bringing the worst disaster in the history of the "Father of Waters." However, if we had to choose between the white man—Democrat, Republican or whatnot—who dances at a social function with a colored woman, and the one who maintains immoral and illicit relations with a colored woman or girl under the cover of dark clothing, we would prefer the dancing Nordic to the one who leaves visible signs of his cohabitation with some colored woman! In this connection, the "solid South" is both the Democratic stronghold and the land of countless thousands of quadroons, ectoroons and other human products resulting from clandestine relations between white men and colored women and girls, it appears that thousands of white Dixie Democrats, who are not necessarily white, have "social equality" and the "intermingling of the two races," have not practiced and do not practice the doctrine which they preach and publicly profess to espouse. Would these "pure, spotless and unblemished" Nordic Democrats of the Southland attempt to lead one to believe that all these "bright" and "light colored" Negroes are the descendants of the white people? Do they accuse Northern Republicans of advocating and practicing "social equality," do they mean to infer or instigate that the fathers of these numerous Southern mutuates are Northern white men who have slipped into Dixieland, pulled off their "stilt," returned to their home and made it appear as if so many of our Southern Democrats of Nordic extraction are guilty of practicing "social equality" where it shows up in its worst and most shocking form? Boasting of their "superiority," it is a sad commentary upon the South when some of its "leading" white citizens and pseudosatemen resort to such tactics to inflame the minds of white Southerners against a presidential nominee of an opposing politician, and to use the politician's ignorance so that the politicians can manipulate partisan affairs to their own fancy, liking and benefit! Having maligned, misrepresented and mistreated the unfortunate and disadvantaged black race for so many years, and having almost converted the country according to taking on the role of a political leader, the race has become emboldened and is now trying to circulate damaging and spurious propaganda of the most pernicious species against one of the ablest and cleanest men in the public life of America. These same Dixie demagogues are mute and seem to lose their factional pride and have become presidential candidate, Governor Alfred Emuelman Smith, has been openly accused of mixing and mingling with Gotham blacks on terms of absolute social and political equality; and no denial has ever come from any Dixie supporter and backer of Nominee Smith that their "ideal candidate" has attended, during his past political career. When a former chief executive of a Southern state will give credence to and circulate such baseless untruths and will handle veracity so parsimoniously, one can readily see why the "solid South" remains SOLID in more ways than one! Yes, sir, between the white man who dances with a colored woman in the dark, give us the former every time! Selah! AN ALARMING HOSPITAL SITUATION Hardly before the ink was dry on last week's issue of The Informer, containing an editorial comment in "The Mirror" about the peculiar circumstances attending the death of a wounded colored man at Jefferson Davis County-City Hospital, the daily newspaper that city broadens the "mysterious" death of another colored man, who was murdered August 2 after sustaining a gunshot wound in the leg during an alleged altercation with a local police officer. According to the newspaper version, when the black man in question, who was charged with assault to murder and carrying a concealed weapon, failed to appear last Friday, October 19, in court, the judge ordered him to be courted the court that he had learned Thursday, October 18, that the wounded colored man died at this (in) famous hospital on October 8. As a result of the death of William Ingate, the Negro in question, conflicting reports have been made concerning his dismissal from the hospital. Hospital attaches contend that Ingate left the hospital after his physical condition showed signs of improvement, but that he later returned complaining about his leg giving him intense pain. According to their version, the cast was taken off the colored man's leg and it was discovered that blood poisoning had developed. One of the hospital surgeons stated, according to newspaper reports, that Ingate died from the effect of an anesthesia, which The Houston Informer America's Greatest Weekly Newspaper On a pop call to the city and hath their own team, Hon.

The Democratic party's policy of racial segregation; showing that delegated and visitor seats were an hourly affair. Listen to this blind Democratic speaker from the Sooner States. "The Democratic party has never been so aggressive," the Democratic party introduced segregation, a and the Democratic party will be held in the state on Monday. In the back of this convention and you will find a segregated section booth. The Oklahoma solon was alluring to the "CAGE" which the leaders of the party have colored spectacles, name have been screened off with chicken wire, cut off when appeared in last week's election. While it may be true that the Democrat party, per as, "has never kissed him," it is true that this much can not be said truthfully about some of our South Carolina voters, "kissed somebodies" in the dark; but observing the various tints and hues in this human-rainbow race of our South Carolina voters in the dark," and we don't mean him. Of course, the senator has no visible eyesight, and we presume he was or is unaware of the glaring fact that he is on the part of many of his Southern Democratic colleagues with perceptions of American race and Democratic party! It is a mighty poor American who kissed him, and understanding the constitution and undermining the constitutional of American ideals and institutions. Marshall, Texas.—The past week at Bishop College were devoted to and attended by many of interest. At the prayer service of the Paul Quimby-Bishop game were announced and the students abstorted all over the chapel and it was stalled for a few minutes. A came back Friday morning before day three of the entire college at breakfast. Trainer L. G. Alexander gave a short description of the chapel service. Friday night a program was held by the quarter. Saturday night was given over by students at the Wiley-Sun-Huron game at Wildcat Field. Many of the students made the trip from the Capital City, visited Bishop. President D. C. Gillman preached at service Sun. was administered as a preliminary to a surgical operation of some nature. Another daily newspaper stated that the "records at the hospital do not show that the Negro left at any time." A bounded Negro were under arrest, why should the hospital authorities hold him to leave the institution without notifying the police department? If these hospital authorities did not know that criminal charges were hanging over the black man's head, what kind of system is in vogue at this county-city hospital? Why did the hospital authorities wait until an officer of the law permitted him to serve papers on the Negro in question before informing the police department that the prisoner was dead? Why was Ingate's death and the circumstances attending it, kept such a secret and shrouded in so much mystery? Did the Negro ever leave this hospital and if he left it, who granted the hospital attaches permission to allow a wounded patient to be held? Are the records in the colored ward of this county-city hospital kept in such a slip-shod manner that any inmate, even though charged with penal offences, can go and come at will? Considering that two Negroes have died recently at this county-city institution because of the hospital "system", as it relates to the Negro, we should not be led to believe that Davis Hospital authorities, attaches and attendants are not concerned in the physical welfare of Negroes who are committed to that institution with wounds received in fights and brawls? Sick, wounded and injured Negroes have told of waiting for hours at this county-city hospital for medical and surgical attention, and of being dismissed from the hospital before their physical condition had shown any appreciable signs of improvement. Realizing the virtually cruel and heartless attention accorded colored charity patients at this hospital, the suggestion has been made repeatedly that the city should contract with the Houston Negro Hospital for handling such cases; but certain city officials have if-noted upon the proposition, and thus the Negro death rate at this hospital, due to negligence, indifference, prejudice or ignorance (the result is the same in either case), is reaching an alarming state. This all a part of a plot to decimate and exterminate colored residents of Houston by the type of hospitalization given them at Jefferson Davis County-City Hospital? With a few more hospitals in the city boasting of such mortuary records, the various undertaking establishments will soon be being set off. Then, “peculiar” and “mysterious” deaths should be thoroughly investigated by the Harris County grand jury, and the local medical societies of both races. Furthermore, The Informer can not see the wisdom of official objection to colored charity patients being treated and cared for at the Houston Negro Hospital, on the grounds that the colored doctors are inefficient and unprepared; when it does not require much preparation, training, efficiency or experience to duplicate the type of medical and surgical services now being accorded so many Negro patients at this celebrated county-city “death-house” (hospital). NEGRO BAPTISTS STILL RAISING HADES! According to both newspaper stories and reports from messengers who attended the session of the Baptist Missionary and Educational Convention at Sherman, last week, the long-expected and developed; and this supposed religious assembly became so disorderly and so void of the Christ-spirit that officers of the law were forced to invade the church, where the sessions were supposed to be held, and arrest several ministers and laymen. It is further stated that the white citizens of Sherman were tilted toward the church, and the deputy deputy repudiated religious leaders, while the colored inhabitants regretted the day that the convention ever came to their city. The Informer, in this editorial, is not trying to point the indicting finger at either faction, per se; but this paper considers both the white and black members of the congregation a year a reflection upon a gang of underworld gangsters, to say nothing of a body of supposed Christian ministers and laymen. The convention's program and perpetuity ought to be paramount to any man's ambitions and aspirations, and the men, who are the most important of these groups, are able and disgraceful state of denominational affairs, should be made to feel the righteous indignation of the conventional constituency. If a split has occurred in this convention, then more than one man or faction is responsible for the division; for there can be a large number of those who do not the physical presence or existence of two men or factions. Here are men professing to be followers of the Prince of Peace pulling off a disorderly orgy which challenges some of the stunts engineered by gangsters and denizens of the underworld—not only because of their involvement, but over the question of office holding and its resultant spoils. In this connection, most of the denominational splits and religious controversies have been waged as a result of fundamental differences affecting religion, but rather upon the all-important question of occupying the "chief seat" and being "the leader". Tactics, ward-heeling politicians would not resort to in order to carry their point, were invoked and employed at this religious gathering, according to some of those who attended the shameful episode at Sherman; and instead of offering prayers for divine guidance in the impending crisis, the preachers were bound to take the lead in the process of refusing. Such disgraceful stunts are outlawed, if the members constituting the local churches will place their unequivocal stamp of disapproval upon such heathenism and hellish affairs by refusing to contribute one penny to any denominational cause or activity, except their local church's maintenance and operating expenses the brooklyn church and the denominational motor is once more on all its civilization fronts of the hard-working men and women, whose blood money makes it possible for the ministers to attend these conventions and raise unadulterated hades (polite term for "hell"), to which place some of our religious leaders seem head faster than a bee-martin his hole), should learn some sense, and refuse to support, either in the church or in the public arena, until this infamy is blotted from the pages of the denominational ledger. Furthermore, it stands to reason that if these religious leaders are unable to handle the convention and steer it along a righteous and constructive course, they are wholly unfit for executing the orders upon them either as local pastors or denominational leaders. The Informer is not a religious organ as such, nor is it sectarian; but this paper is intensely interested in humanity in general and the Negro race in particular, and we know that the race can never get very far with such centrifugal leadership. If the so-called intelligent and Christian Negroes can not bury the race, they can not kill it, and then the Negro race is nothing more or less than a huge joke, and our days in the wilderness of ignorance, oppression and repression will be many and full of trouble. There is not a denominational breach which can not be healed, if the members of the various churches compose the conventions, both state and national, would show some courage and backbone and demand that the preachers cut out their hellraising and bickering and unite their forces for the salvation of the Negro race than in fighting and splitting over office and its "trumpeters."
