REPU "FIGHTING NEGRO DEM LIBERIA A LETTER FROM AMANDA MASON, A NATIVE OF LIBERIA, WHO IS A STUDENT AT WILBERFORCE UNIVERSITY. By Rucker Smith, Wilberforce University, Wilberforce, Ohio, February 1, 1920. Mr. Rucker Smith, 1403 Walnut, Kansas City, Mo. Dear Mr. Smith: Yours of a few days ago came safely to hand and has been carefully read. In answer to your letter, kindly allow me to state that I am very glad to know that you are interested in Liberia and its welfare. I wish that more of the educated American Negroes would realize the fact, that the redemption of Africa depends upon the tiny Negro Republic, "Liberia." When Liberia shall have been developed and its influence felt throughout the continent, the "Black Man" shall come into his own. Africa is truly the land of beauty, wealth and prosperity. The need of educated men and women in Liberia is great. Men and MR. RUCKER SMITH. A recognized authority on Africa in general and Liberia in particular. women who have broad visions and strong personalities and are willing to give their last full measure of devotion for their fellowmen. Men and women who are educated along all lines; school teachers as well as preachers, agriculturists, mechanics, doctors, lawyers, in fact, every profession or trade can be put to use and is needed. I hope the eyes of a few will be opened and grasp this opportunity. I shall answer your questions the best I can: The route usually to Liberia is: Take a ship from New York City to Liverpool, England, transfer there to another ship which lands at Monrovia, the capital of Liberia. Liberia had no railroads eight years ago when I left there, but I understand that now some are being constructed. The chief product is coffee, perhaps not the easiest secured. Palm oil, rice, and ginger are some of the products that modern methods of cultivation could develop extensively. Land can be secured without much trouble. Hon. C. B. O. King is President. He was inaugurated January 1, 1920. No, the Liberian Government does not pay my expense. I am twenty-one years old. Yours for Africa, AMANDA MASON. The above letter from Miss Mason is a reply to one I wrote her concerning Liberia. It is so interesting and to the point, I thought it deserved to be made public. Miss Mason devotedly loves her country; it is a land of beauty, of opportunity and an unadulterated freedom for her or any member of the Negro race who wishes to go there. The United States, in the establishment of the Colony of Liberia, which finally developed into a Negro Republic, paid in part, at least, for our enslavement and opened up a bright future for the Black race. The most perplexing question now is: "When shall we accept of it? It is certain, I think, that we shall some time embrace it in the future. The Kansas City Sun 23.

PUBLI G" TOM MA EMOCRATS RE 11th WARD REPUBLICANS NAME CITY CONVENTION DELEGATES The regular Republican delegation from the Eleventh ward to the city convention was elected Monday night by the members of the Third club at a meeting at the court room of Justice Pollock, 3026 Troost avenue. A coterie of "anti boss" independents tried to stem the tide of defeat by advancing the excuse that they had been unable to find fifty-three Republicans in the ward to go on an "anti-boss" delegation, although they had labored long and diligently. They asked for further time to see if they could not meet with better success, but the several hundred men and women present were not in a further delay frame of mind and demanded that a vote be taken on the regular delegation, which was submitted in the form of a report from the minority faction of the committee that had been named on last Monday night to report back the names of the delegates to the club last night for approval. At the meeting on last Monday night it is claimed that the anti-boss" crowd packed it with outsiders and some of the committee of five who are in charge of the anti-boss" campaign and put over a resolution that the ward should send an "anti-boss" delegation to the convention. The president of the club was inclined to rule that the report of the minority of the delegate committee was not in conformity with the spirit of the "anti-boss" resolution in view of the fact that Fred Richardson, a former alderman and holder of other city offices under Republican administrations, claimed that the club had no definite proofs that the delegates recommended were not "anti-boss." "We want no delegates from the Eleventh that are not against Tom Marks," shouted Richardson. This remark drew fire from men on the delegation who disclaimed any connection whatsoever with Marks, and denied that they were boss controlled. Fred Dahney, Nelson Crews and others cited that Richardson always had been "a boss" more exacting and tyrannical than Marks, and that he should be the last man to cry bossism. The crowd was on its feet, loudly demanding a roll call on the motion to approve the minority report on delegates. The president of the club insisted on hiding behind the "antiboss" delegation rule, and when the house was in an uproar it was a woman who brought order out of chaos. She was Miss Matilda Imhof, a school teacher. "I move that we rescind the "antiboss" resolution of a week ago," she said. The crowd cheered. The motion was put and carried. Nelson Crews moved that the resolution be expurgated from the official records of the club. It was adopted and the report of delegates as recommended by the minority of the delegation committee was ratified. The delegation will be known as "The Regular Republican Delegation." The delegates: W. W. Harden, John N. Trout, E. J. Washer, Ross J. Ream, E. H. Barker, Phineas Rosenberg, E. H. Gamble, Charles Myers, G. C. Lee, E. E. Kratz, D. M. Vail, Jos. A. Stringer, Hugh M. Dockery, August Gantz, Herman Weisflog, Conrad Metz, Charles A. Barker, David Russell, Charles O. Smith, J. E. Heiser, A. E. Young, A. J. Shirk, W. C. Herold, J.

The funeral of Mr. Charles Griggsby, Grand High Priest of Royal Arch Masons of Missouri was held in Liberty, Mo., last Sunday at 1:00 o'clock and was largely attended. Grand Master Crittenden C.

Thomkins Supil, of the General Hospital, Kansas City; Grand Tyler Geicks of Lathrop, Mo.; Grand Warder James Green of St. Joseph, Mo.; and many other prominent men and women of the fraternity were in attendance. Among the prominent ladies were Mrs. Scottie Dickens, Mrs. Janie Johnson, Mrs. Lucy Cappels, and quite a few others whose names our reporter was unable to get. The ladies of the Eastern Star served a splendid luncheon to all visitors absolutely free of charge in the entertainment hall of the Masonic lodge building and at 1:00 o'clock the funeral cortege formed under the direction of E. G. Lacey, headed by Blackburn's famous Knights Templar band of 18 pieces who rendered excellent music led by the Commandaries of Kansas City and Liberty, then the Royal Arch and then the various blue lodges and was a most imposing procession. The funeral arrangements were in the hands of Sanders & Moore of this city and for the first time in that city automobile hearse and carriages were used in a Colored funeral, led by that premier driver with his beautiful $4,000 Cole 8, W. M. H. Hubbel, which he drove over to Liberty at the earnest request of the Editor. Deputy Grand High Priest Thomas opened the services and after resolutions on behalf of the Grand Chapter, introduced Grand Master Clark of St. Louis who presided most acceptably and with dignity as Master of ceremonies. Addresses were delivered by S. A. May, Wm. Cappels Wm. H. Jones, T. G. McCampbell, Wm. G. Moseley, and N. C. Crews. Solutions were presented on behalf of the Eastern Star by Mrs. Lucy Cappels and on behalf of the Odd-fellows by Mr. Anthony Dickens. The funeral semen was preached by O. T. Rede of this city from the 38 verse of the 3rd chapter of Samuel "A Prince in Israel has fallen this day" and he delivered a wonderful discourse that elicited much praise from all who heard him. Music was furnished by the choirs of the Baptist church where the services were held and the A. M. E. church and the Eastern Star. Al in all the funeral services were in keeping with the high character and splendid services rendered by this disingled frater. "Rest in peace." ALLEN CHAPEL'S POPULAR SERVICE.

D., and his congregation of St. Stephen's Baptist church will furnish the program from 8:00 sharp to 9:00 o'clock. Sweet singing, fervent prayer and a straight from the shoulder talk from this popular pator will be the program. Everybody invited to come. Excellent music by Allen's Great Choir. "LICKED." In every contest in the various wards of the city during the past week, the Star and its political puppets have been "licked to a frazzle." The motto at all these meetings has been apparently to "put none but real Republicans on guard." KANSAS CITY, MISSOURI, SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 21 1920. It is not representative of the spirit of the Republicans of the ward in that it promotes those forces which apparently are seeking the destruction of the party. "That the Republicans of Jackson County should determine and conclude whom they should support for president of the United States, and M. J. B. The acknowledged leader of the Negro Democracy of Missouri, who is the idol of the white Democrats of the State. what candidates they might prefer for state, county and city offices without outside interference of meddling on the part of agents, paid or otherwise, of various candidates, or the well-known 'non-partisan' press." —Tuesday's Journal. NEGRO DEMOCRATS COMPLI- MENTED. That the Negro Democrats are winning the confidence of the leaders of their party is evidenced by the attached letter published herewith and also by the fact that last Saturday at Snapp's hotel in Excelsior Springs Mr. J. J. Mattjoy and Dr. Howard M. Smith were honored with an hour's conference with His Excellency Governor Gardner who was so impressed MR. J. J. M. The acknowledged leader of the N the idol of the white Democrats of th with their manner and report that he promised to give them and their representatives at any time a hearing upon things affecting the Negro people of Missouri and assured them that their efforts in behalf of the Democratic party were highly appreciated by both rank and file of that party and significantly telling them that the Negro can never hope for a full man's chance in the political affairs of any community or commonwealth until he learns to intelligently divide his vote between all political organizations. Mr. Mattjoy, Dr. Smith, Col. Watkins, Chas. Mills and other leaders among the Negro Democrats are preparing for a big conference in the near future which will undoubtedly have much to do with the political situation in this state. The following letter speaks for itself: J. J. Mattioy. Committeeman, Fifth Congressional District Negro Democratic Organization of Missouri, Kansas City. Dear Fellow Democrats: The Third Congressional District Campaign Committee herewith knights yourself, Dr. Howard Smith and Lieutenant B. E. Watkins, as the Three Negro Muskeeters. This is done as a compliment to the great services rendered by you three in the recent Third District Election. Your trio did much, and will do more, to prove to other members of your race that their true political home is the Democratic party, the only party that endeavors to free them from political slavery. You Muskeeters are doing much for the political uplift of your race. It is a commandment worth more than gold to write that you Democrats labored without price, even refusing your individual expenses. Compare this record with that of some base member of your race who turned a story into the opposition press to the effect that "roughneck negroes were imported and used in the Third District to stuff ballot boxes." Besides being idiotically silly, the story was dastardly mean. It could only be conceived in the mind of some member of your race who --- would prostitute his color for selfish gain. Congressman Milligan desires to be particularly remembered to you Three musketeers. Most truly yours. Most truly yours, Ben M. Neale, Emmet Boy, J. L. Shepherd, F. T. Crowley, J. L.

MATTJOY, Negro Democracy of Missouri, who is the State. LINCOLN THEATRE OPENS. LINCOLN THEATRE OPENS The opening of the new Lincoln Theatre Sunday afternoon February 22nd, marks a distinct epoch in the social life of that large and ever-increasing number of our racial group who bitterly resent the discrimination and Jim-crowism practiced at down-town theatres and who from a standpoint of refinement, culture and intelligence deserve an amusement place in keeping with the advancement of the race. That the Lincoln Theatre will fill all these requirements is amply attested by the lavish expenditure of money that has been made in making it one of the most beautiful and attractive playhouse in all Kansas City. And there is no doubt in the mind of the Sun that the race will give tangible evidence of its appreciation of this new enterprise. With Love's beautiful theatre on Vine street and with the new Lincoln Theatre that is the last word in architectural elegance and design there will be no need for any member of the race haunting the "Nigger heaven" of prejudiced down-town theatres. Five thousand Negroes should visit the Lincoln on its opening date and get their picture in the group photograph to be taken in front of the theatre promptly at 2:00 o'clock. ATTENTION! ATTENTION!

The other day after being soared to the skies by all those preliminaries that go before a fall (all public speakers know what I mean), one of those send-offs before and those kick-offs after. To make a long story short, I was asked if I would give some information along the line of race enterprise. Now with all the courage I could muster with an unnoticed quiver of the lips and the sinking of spirit, I answered, "Delighted," and then I got the jolt of my life for she replied by saying, "I told my friend you could for you are something of a Fay King type." Can you beat it? And me trying to write something to inspire the race. At any rate the question was put forth like this, "What is the cause of the seeming success and increase of beauty parliors among our race?" "It was easy; I merely replied: "No other race is in opposition against us in that line. Let a few open one tomorrow and you'll see. I know that there are places where the Negro is forced to patronize his own, receiving an unwelcome elsewhere. I would just as soon do laundry work for my own race, if that was my profession; I would just as soon buy a sick chicken or be short weighted by my own race as by any other. Not as they would for there are more honest persons among the Negroes than any race on the Globe. Let's unite and lay aside prejudice and patronize our own; for a house divided against itself cannot stand. Do you know why many homes were bought this year? If you don't, think it over. Don't be like the old woman who saw a picture of Jesus, black with wooly hair and who said, "Shucks, if Jesus looks like that I don't want to go to heaven." James J. McCormick, son of Rev. L. W. McCormick, formerly of St. Luke Church, Westport, died suddenly February 2, after a brief illness; his two months' old daughter died three days later.

The exact sum will be published in our next week's issue. Miss Carrie Watson, one of the charming young lay teachers in the St. Joseph public schools, was a welcome visitor at the A. M. E. Sunday School Sunday. Miss Watson made a splendid talk to the school. She is the president of the St. Joseph Y. W. C. A. Mr. Everett and Whitefield, two young men who have been on the sublist of carriers at the postoffice, have been given regular routes.

The church was moving along very nicely and the collections are excellent. KING SOLOMON CHURCH. Rev. J. W. Clav. Pastor. The Sunday School opened at the usual hour with the superintendent, Bro. Warfield at his post. The attendance was good and the lesson was given in a splendid manner. The Sunday School is one of the strongest branches of this church, and we would be glad to have you attend and enjoy the lesson and the splendid review. If we cannot teach you we will allow you to teach us. The morning service was conducted by the pastor, ably assisted by one of our young sons in the Gospel, Rev. Andrew Smith, who is an ordained minister and a good preacher. He preached us a soul-stirring sermon and proved to us that he was trying to improve himself. We are proud of him and pray for him that he may grow stronger. We had our Covenant Meeting at 3 o'clock, which was well attended and a very enthusiastic meeting was had. The evening service was conducted by the pastor who preached a wonderful sermon, which enjoyed by all.

Taylor, a teacher in the Lincoln High School, Kansas City, Mo., after denying me the right to live with him in Kansas City as his wife since his residence in this city and filing a suit for divorce after his residence of one year, setting forth charges which were untrue, I filed a general denial to charges, and Mr. Taylor at once dismissed his suit for divorce. Mr. Taylor stated to me that he was tired of me and a husband's responsibilities (although he had never assumed any), that he had met a face fairer than mine (possibly not so good), but nevertheless he wished to be ridden of me. My mission to Kansas City is to demand of Mr. Taylor a separate maintenance, as he has never supported we since we have been married. LOTTIE G. TAYLOR, Atlantic City, N. J.

In sad and loving memory of our darling mother, Mrs. Rebecca Ewing, who departed this life three years ago February 20, 1917. The days are long, the nights are dreary. And the time rolls slowly on; How few are life's pleasures Since you dear mother have gone. We did not know the pain she had. Although we saw her die; We only know she passed away And could not say goodbye. We think of her in silence, No eye can see us weep; But many a silent tear we shed. When others are fast asleep. Sadly missed by her daughters. Mrs. Lillian Long and Miss Bettie Jones. REPUBLICANS—CLOSE UP!

MEMBER NATIONAL NEGRO PRESS ASSOCIATION. WHY? Why all this hue and cry about BOSS and ANTI-BOSS rule in the Republican party? What sinister motive is behind it? And when did the Star become the mouthpiece of the Republicans in Kansas City? The Editor received a communication from the Rev. S. Douglas McDuffie, who was in Norfolk, Va., waging a campaign against sin in the historic St. John A. M. E. church. The famous Billy Sunday is also in a campaign in Norfolk for the same period as our own Dr. McDuffie. Rev. McDuffie will be in Kansas City about Easter and conduct a summer revival宏re. Kelly Miller is not surpassed in happy and pointed phrase making even by that other teacher that occupies the White House. But Miller's phrases ring true. They do not contradict one another; they apply to mankind, not a favored class. This modern "magician of the art of writing" tersely puts into words the unexpressed thoughts of the Negro. His pure reason lays bare the fallacies of the mighty in a view that is irritating because it is convincing and unanswerable. Yet only once has there been an attempt to suppress his writing. His latest production, "Radicalism and the Negro," strengthens the distracted hope of a sadly abused people, the core of which may be seen in these quotations: It does not require the persuasion of the Bolshevik to make the Negro satisfied with injustice. He does not need the advice of the I. W. W. to del keenly the thing of industrial discrimination, no foreign propaganda is required to cause him to denounce him Crow cars. His feelings are not to numb that he must wait the urgency of Socialism to make him cry loud highest Lynching. "Yet, the Negro will not be allured by the arguments of distracted and destructive radicals. He has no hope outside of the Declaration of Independence and its embodiment in the Constitution of the United States. The Negro must insist with incessant insistence, upon the exact fulfillment of the declared purpose of American Institutions." GOY. MORROW PROVED IT. The promptness and effectiveness that characterized the acting of Governor Morrow, of Kentucky, to prevent the lynching of the Colored murderer, Will Lockett, gives encouragement to the belief that in Kentucky, at least, there are potent factors against disorder—against mobs usurping the powers of established courts. While we praise Governor Morrow for his steps taken to prevent a lynching, we cannot find words to condemn the brute Lockett for his horrible murder of that little white girl. The act of this brute, even though some may be moved to explain it, is but the natural result of an environment that germinates resentment against race prejudice to the point of retaliation, which naturally serves to augment racial prejudice rather than minimize it. While justly inveighing against lynch law, against discrimination and segregation, arch-breeders of crime, we cannot afford, as a race, to excuse so brutal a crime as that committed by Lockett. He not only violated the Tenth Commandment—"Thou shalt not kill"; and the statutory laws of Kentucky, but he made an entire race suffer because of his crime committed. Will Lockett should be made to pay the full penalty, and there should be shed no tears over his passing. We commend the action of Governor Morrow, taken in the interest of law and order, in the interest of the majesty of the law, to the governors of Louisiana, Mississippi, Georgia, the Carolinas and Tennessee, as beate. ing worthy of emulation. Governor Morrow proved that lynching can be prevented.—Advo- Just about the time our one-time associate in the ill-paid sphere of journalism, Phil Brown, of the "whiskyterian state" of Kentucky, had his sails all set for delegate-at-large from that state, made famous by Cassius and Henry Clay, Henry Waterson, Col.

By Perau Webb Last Sunday was the second quarterly meeting at Ward Chapel—"Hear Not, Oh, Lord; Be glad and Rejoice; for the Lord Will Do Great Things." The services were well attended throughout the day. The Sunday School is growing in attendance each Sunday. At 11 o'clock the chair full of Gospel hymns marched in and took its usual place under the direction of Mrs. Sadie Wyett and baptized the hearers with the solemnness of their gospel singing. The pastor, Rev. G. E. Horsey, preached a soul-stirring sermon; subject, "Walk Worthy of the Vocation Wherewith You Are Called." This was indeed a God-sent message, being well explained and the very excellence of the deliverance made it well understood by its hearers. Get the theme of the text, "It Is More Important for Us to Be. Then It is To Do." Three new additions to the church. At 3:30 the sacramental service began. -Rev. A. B. Harris offered prayer for the opening and Rev. Bolden of the C. M. E. Church gave the scripture reading, after which Rev. M. C. Knight of Allen Chapel, Quindaro, delivered a sermon that the fervor seemed to give new life and the worshippers soon manifested their acceptance. The collection for the day was splendid. The Endeavor is improving rapidly and the topics are full of inspiration. The Sunday School is climbing for the top in attendance. "Rob not the poor because he is poor, neither oppress the afflicted in the gutter," was the text of the evening sermon. Lodge Directory A. F. & A. M., Missouri Jurisdiction Officers for 1920.

It being his birth date he gave a short biography of his life and preached a wonderful sermon delivered with power and ability....Sabbath School was very well attended in accordance with the cold weather.

This com THE Ideal Barber Shop! High-Class Workmen D. S. GREGGS, Prop. 907 Wyandotte St. K. C. Mo. During the last few months I suppose that a hundred different people have come up to me at various times and said: "Say Hubbell I notice you're driving an Aero-Eight. How did you happen to determine on buying it?" And to each of them I have given the same answer: "Because I think it is the greatest stock car—bar none—that is built in America today! I did not buy my Aero-eight by mere chance. The Aero-Eight was no stranger to me. It struck my fancy the moment I saw the first one, five years ago. The light weight of the Aero-Eight, the splendid balance, the ease with which it rides and drives, the wealth of power, the quick pick-up are not to be compared with."

BETHEL A. M. E. CHURCH, By Mattie B. Evans. The Sunday School opened with a splendid attendance at 11 o'clock Our pastor preached from Ephesian 5:14; "Awake, Thou Sleepeth"; subject; "Sleepers Awake." This was a very instructive sermon. The thought came to our mind: Are we asleep in God's service? Then we must awaken and let God get glory out of our souls. The C. E. League continues to grow in interest and attendance. At 7:45 Rev. Dawson preached from Cor. 1:13; And now abideth faith, hope and charity; subject, "The Geometry of Life." Every completed life has three sides: love, love and religion. If one of these is left out our life is not completed. Love is the foundation of religion. Jesus says, "If we don't love those whom we have seen, how can we love Him whom we have not seen, so then let us love one another. Faith without works is dead. We are saved by hope. But hope that we see is not hope for what a man seeth. Why doth he get hope. Christ in you the hope of glory. Faith, hope and charity, the greatest of these three is charity, which is love. Come and worship with us. You are welcome. Bethel, the strangers' Home and Sinners' Friend. MORNING STAR BAPTIST CHURCH Sunday School was well attended Sunday.
