Jones Back to Iowa After Two Weeks Inspection Visit to Piney Woods School. After attending the National Negro Business School in Philadelphia and making a business trip to New York and Boston, Prof. L. C. Jones went down to Mississippi, for his mid-summer visit to a museum. He appears to be most interesting visit and says that instead of his force of students and teachers needing inspiration, they inspired him; the things they thought would be most pleasing to him. Negroes Must Stop Trading at Grunds The Negroes on and near Center St. have made Grund's store what it is today—rich, but as usual they did not notice that he would do the usual thing. He had told him that had fed him. The American Co. had at 1106 Center street, a Negro enterprise, operates a grocery store directly in front of Grund's. Last week when the Negro institution began to draw attention to these honorary follows attempted to store the Dairy Co. from selling the Co-operative Co. milk, and did succeed for a couple of days until the directors actually forced the dairy to cease its pernicious actions. This is a deplorable situation. It should be known in every colored family in town. The store should be picketed. Circulars should be printed telling of this fact. The "societies" and "associations" of the city will spread the propaganda. This will help colored business and show what Grund and his kind will do. A great many colored people have excuses for trading with Grund, "My steers give me credit," "this prices are high," all of which are absurd. Examine your weights, credit slips and then investigate the prices at the colored store and you will come out about them any way. There are numerous large stores who would rather see Negroes trade with their own stores and yet who welcome any overflow trade. The Public Market is one point. The manager there will give you the lives in Negroes supporting their institutions and the prices and produce are the best. Piney Woods School is one of the unique institutions of the country in that like Chicago University, it is an all the year school; Prof. Jones never followed the school down Stry to eighty students and teachers are on the grounds the entire summer. He reports the following departments in active operation: Office. Under the direction of Miss Eva Spella, a graduate of Piney Woods school, the office department was sending out fifty thousand pieces of mail, through the school's own United States post office of which Mrs. Laurence C. Jones is a postmistress and Miss Spella was as well as secretary to the principal. Printing Office. In charge of a senior student, Miss Ollie Thomas, had just finished running off the fifty thousand piece of mail that had started on the school's paper, the Pine Torch, which has a circulation of 100,000 copies. Boarding Department. One of the livest departments on the ground was this one under Miss J. B. Thomas, the fifth secretary in theinary. Aside from supervising the laundry, dining room and kitchen, Miss Robinson had the school's steam canning plant in full operation and was in the five thousand piece of fruit and vegetableAcademic DEPARTMENT. The academic department under Miss Elizabeth Price, a graduate of Tuskegee had just closed for a few days vacation. Some students' were rejoicing over having made up work they were over having gained some new credits. Agricultural Department. Prof. Luther Harper had his hands full harvesting and getting ready for fall crops. His department was cutting and baling hay, filling the silo, grinding and cooking molasses and in it was ably assisted by Mr. Collins. (Continued on page 2). THE BYSTANDER Must be Centuries Old To Vote in Ga. MUST BE A RESIDENT PRIOR TO 1402, TO VOTE IN GEORGIA Georgia has been known to do some absurd things especially in its dealing with the Negro citizens but this proposed law surpassed anything. Rep. Harris is no doubt a hero in Georgia. The following article is quoted from the Freeman which sets out in detail the original bill: If Methuselah had been a colored man and lived in Georgia, he would have the distinction of being the only man of his race in that great comeback. The colored person must be resident in the coming election, according to a bill introduced in the Georgia Legislature by Representative Harris of Head County, the other day. The bill that colored person must be resident in the South since the year prior to 1402, before he can undertake even to consider any of the other ordinary qualifications for voting. Representative Harris' bill was as such documents go, and is as follows: "AN ACT to forever forbid the privilege of voting to certain persons: "Be it enacted by the General Assembly of the State of Georgia, and its assembly as such documents the authority of the same that from and after the passage of this Act. "Section 1. It shall be unlawful for any person born on the Continent of Africa, or descendants of persons born in the State of Georgia, to vote or hold office in the State of Georgia. "Section 2. Be it further enacted by the authority aforesaid that all persons born in the State of Georgia use, and customs in conflict with the law, and the same are hereby repealed." While Candidate Cox is galliating up and down the hustings, striving to impress the colored American voter with his love for the race his sofware and sympathizers are expressing their devotion to Georgia by legislative enactment like the foregoing. Young Washington In Des Moines Davidson Washington, youngest son of the late Booker T. Washington was in Des Moines last week, in the interest of Tuskegee institute. He reports that his visit was successful in that the people of Tuskegee formally to the cause which he represents. Mr. Washington is also interested in putting on the market a phonographic record of his father's famous speech at the Atlanta exposition. The record may be procured in this district by calling the putting the Bystander office. Price $1.50. Speak Here Warren G. Harding will be in Des Moines from 9 to 12 o'clock about Oct. 7 and at a big meeting at the Coliseum with people who come to the city will get a chance to see and hear the next president of the United States. It is especially desired that the women come out and hear the senator. The color of people in the room is a man aspiring for the presidency who has spoken fearlessly on the race question.

One or two of Chamberlain's Tablets taken immediately after supper will cause a gentle ripple in the bowels on the following morning. Try it. Harding's Creed for Humanity Every right and every privilege of Citizenship that the Colored American Enjoys Came Through the Republican Party. Every Reprisal Against His Citizenship, Every Constitutional Privilege He Has Lost Was Taken By the Democratic Party. Thousands of colored people who have moved into Northern labor centers from the Democratic South, CAN VOTE, provided they hold the qualifications of other men. The fact that they are colored does not interfere. Tell them of this privilege, and direct them to their county or city chairman of the Republican organization, who will be glad to give them full instructions. THINK and VOTE AS YOU THINK Iowans Next Gov- ernor in Des Moines Twenty years ago Mr. L. W. Williams of Lexington, Mo., came to Boone, Iowa (shipped in) to wok in a hotel. A little later he was married to Miss Ida Griffin of Quincy and after fifteen years opened to open up business for themselves. They moved to Clarinda nine years ago and opened up a restaurant, four years later a grocery department was added. She d. N. R. (do no better) care is second to other othering house in Clarinda. Ninety per cent of his trade is white and they are doing a business with a gross income of $1,600 a year. Mr. Williams says they bar nobody on account of race but that his condition of being but that their place bars a great many people in that everybody white and black must come decently clothed and orderly. Mr. Williams has had a hard struggle but he has been an honest and an honestly toward the ideal of being his own host. Side by side, sharing his F. W. B. Negro Millionaire Dies in Texas Charles Brown, who died at his home here a few days ago at the age of 90 years, was probably the wealthiest, but one of the most unostentatious, Negroes who lived in the city, left a fortune of considerable more than a million, some estimates placing the figure at $2,000,000. It is known that Brown owned at the time of his death about 3,600 acres of land in the heart of the wonderfully productive West Columbia oil field, all under lease. He received an enormous revenue from oil wells under the one-eighth royalty clause which is in all respects the most successful farmer during his long life. He leaves a family of seven children and a number of grandchildren. Although the aged Negro did not set store by a rockeel display and expenditure of his land was liberal in providing for his children. Brown's physical and mental condition was vigorous up to a few days before he died. He made no change in his manner of living when fortune took him to the streets on the streets of West Columbia and surrounding country. Frequently he was seen driving along the roads and streets in a farm wagon. Although his children rode in highpriced automobiles, he was always on the tenor of his old life. He was always held in the highest respect by the white people of the town and section. WILLIAM H. LEWIS HONORED BY HAYS New York, Sept. 28.—William H. Lewis, distinguished lawyer, is included in the list of forty names of those appointed by Chairman Will H. Hays, retainer at a Special Advisory Committee to the Republican Committee. New York, N. Y, Sept. 28.—Without assigning the slightest-reason for their action, the Board of Awards of the University of Pennsylvania named Frederick Douglas, cx-salvage, orator and diplomat, as unworthy of a bronze tablet in the Hall of Fame. The anti-slavery orator's name was placed in nomination by Cleveland G. Allen, a nation-wide attention, being the first time a man of the race had been so honored. joys and sorrows, has been Mrs. Williams and they have gone over the top, Grand Chancellor Knights Public School, to provide evidence of the great esteem in which the recole of Iowa hold Mr. Williams. What Mr. Williams has done others can do and there is an abundance of opportunities right here in Iowa for a business enterprises of the same kind. g's Creed Republican C Stand reed for Huican Candidates Stand for Freedom and Equal Opportunity A Square THIS TICKET O and every privilege of Citi the Through the Republican Square Deal KET OPENS THE DO Ege of Citizenship that the Colore Republican Party. Every Reprisal A Square Deal DEMOCRATIC PARTY ANGERS FOR THE RACE! Hear Dr. Washington On The Victrola We are about to hear the late Booker T. Washington himself again: About eight years ago the late Booker T. Washington, at the request of an official company had a record made of his famous Atlanta exposition speech which because of its wisdom and forcefulness first brought him into worldwide fame. Only one record was made for Dr. Washington, and the rest of it been in the possession of his younger son, Davidson. The latter treasured it more than any other possession because it was his father's voice and took great pride in playing it for friends. He was born to put it on the market—but the rest of it his many friends has finally consented to do so. A singular incident attended the meeting of young Washington and some of the Columbia officials. While talking to some of them, a gentleman was told things—who did things and who left for his race a wonderful, tangible monument—seems like a voice from heaven—shades of the past. If we could but hear Douglass or Lincoln and a few of the mother great leaders of yesterday be more odorises. When the lure of gold is making so many of those who might be great—lesser. Every American citizen should have one of these records in his home. DELAYED BY SICKNESS.

ANDERSON, Attorney for Plaintift Publishing every Thursday by the Bryastander Publishing Company, Des Moines, Iowa. Office in Chemical Building, Corner of Seventh and Mulberry streets. Phone Walnut 809. A Jewish grocery store attempted to have Flynn dairy refuse service to a colored grocery because the latter drew too much Negro trade. Give these fellows a chance and they will all show their hands. Maybe our folks will wake up then. Last week we published an editorial scoring Mr. Chas, Ramson for his failure to give recognition to Negroes in the Republican state campaign. In the same issue a news item appeared which stated that Mrs. S. Joe Brown had been recommended by him and appointed from national headquarters to the state organizer of colored men. This was fair but because the subject is severe antitism until recognition is given as according to our strength. We report here that Mr. Cummins, the candidate for re-election as United States senator needs every vote that can be mustered up. The only way to get them is through a perfect organization of all forces. Andrew (Rube) Foster, noted colored baseball player and magnate said in an interview in New York; "When Senator Harding said that 'the federal government should stamp out lynching' he just naturally hit the ball and knocked Cox out of the box." Nobody but a man of foster incintration would have thought of this. The colored people are helped to outwit. Jacob Schiff died in New York Sunday. He was born in Germany, came to the United States in the years ago and soon entered the financial world with Kuhn, Loeb & Co., of New York, one of the oldest and best institutions in Amer- Mr. Schiff was a philanthropist of the highest type. He gave both time and money to the Jewish, Negro and far east relief work. Fords have been reduced to pre-war prices. Some other manufacturers have followed suit. Some of the big packers said they did this long ago but the consumers have not felt it. Ford evidently controls his prices down to the buyer while the packers don't; some joke. I SAW IT IN THE BYSTANDER. Fort Worth, Texas, Sept. 29.—In an effort to save the Indian race from further intermingling of Negro blood, C.B. Trailer of Hominy, Oka, son of the chief of the Osage tribe will ask Governor Hobby to present to the next Texas legislature a bill preventing the intermarriage of Indians and Negroes. Through his efforts Oklahoma already has such a law and a similar law has recently passed in Louisiana. Be brave that it is imperative that Texas enact the same legislation. The Osage is the wealthiest in the United States and one of the most advanced. Its lands are rich with oil and its capital wealth in the hands of the government mounts into the millions of dollars. The Indian has followed the white man in all his bad habits, so there is little surprise in this instance. INFORMATION DIGEST. (By Robert D. Duffy) It cost Ucass Uncle Sam $10 to run fifteen million dollars to pay to run this establishment called the U. S. A. Four times as that of 1914. Article 10 of the League.

Executive Aug. 1, 1920 the headquarters of the American expeditionary forces. Washington, D. C., will be discontinued. By order of the Secretary of War Peyton C. March, M. T. C., of staff. The Franklin and Ford Motor Car companies have knocked some of the meat off Miss High Prices' bones, and Sears-Boebuck and Montgomery and Ward took a whirl at her hard work and knocked off a big piece. This initiative when you see it things needs to be done without being told. The band called the "Watch tower of the continent during the war" and the "whispering gallery" has more disposed royalties and less American visitors. After all this year nothing seems unusual there. The most perfect ever prevails. A news representative of the Newark describes it as "The mutest people in Europe, Sturdy, busy and free of scars of war." PRIZES GIVEN AWAY. WITH WIVES IN LITHUANIA Getting a wife in Lithuania is lots of fun. It is also worth while from a business point of view, for the bride's father must give up a fistful of rubles with the apple of his eye, and the husband may lay his hand on anything he sees and likes when he takes the girl to his own home. Yes, as a woman writing in the London Times agrees, it's a lot of fun for everybody—except the old man. He, it seems, has to fork up everything in sight and smile as he does it. MAKES MID-SUMMER VISIT TO MISSISSIPPI (Continued from page 1). Truck Garden. The surprise of the summer was the truck garden of Mr. Shelton James, who not only raised enough vegetables of many varieties to supply the sixty odd people, but kept the canning plant busy. Piney Woods had never seen such a garden nor has it ever seen such a fall garden as he has coming on. During rainy days Mr. James and his boys are kept busy in the blacksmith shop at which he is also an expert worker.

A brand new industry at Piney Woods which attracts a great deal of attention from all about the country is the brickyard under the direction of Mr. R. H. Mullan, the mall manager, the dirt court, the yard and the kiln going up was indeed an inspiration. In all of this work, three faithful boys, Willie Buck, Ben Jones and Monroe McClaurin ably assisted the instructors wherever needed. And so the work at Piney Woods goes from day to day, everybody busy all of the time. When not at work they are in a literary society or band practice for Piney Woods has the only brass band in the county. No wonder they turn out active, wideawake, ambitious students. Prof. Jones says that anybody who could have visited Piney Woods this summer would have been happy, but he has to have seen the perfect cooperation. Best Treatment for a Burn. If for no other reason, Chamberlain's Salve should be kept in every household on account of its great value in the treatment of burns.
