THE NEGRO STAR FOR THE GOOD OF THE PEOPLE
THE KU KLUX KLAN AN INDICTMENT AGAINST AMERICAN CIVILIZATION.
Eternal Truths vs Ku Klux Klan—Shall Civilization Live or Shall the Invisible Empire?
The organization known as the Ku Klux Klan recently organized in the State of Georgia, and which now for various reasons is attracting the attention of the general public, stands as one of the Greatest Indictments against American Civilization, and the practice of those attributes of civilization in the United States that the world has ever been called to gaze upon and ponder. A relic of an institution bred out of a spirit of rancid racial hatred it in itself has no other purpose than that of by more sinister cryptic propaganda spreading broadcast over the entire country that which its mother institution failed to accomplish in the Southlands, the total terrorizing of the Negro to the end that his progress might be absolutely arrested. American civilization both by tradition and law assures to all men absolute security from those methods of government that characterize a savage state, yet the Ku Klux Klan daily resorts to personal violence, arson, intimidation, murder and if its every act was placed before the reading public perhaps Rape to further its detrimental aim. American Civilization stands upon the pinnacle of world progress and procams the sublime principles of Democracy while the Ku Klux Klan by a selective process obtains its members who pledge themselves to maintain by cryptic forces boasted superiority of a single race out of America's cosmopolitan whole. American Civilization on its hallowed sheets of the Federal Constitution fixes the letter and spirit of citizens and their treasured institutions while the Kan in the dark hours of night steals away to its secret dives, and with masked men sets up proclamations of crime to be committed against peaceful men for no other reason than that they are progressive under the established order of things regulated in accord with the edicts of time-honored courts. American civilization through its countless churches, colleges, schools, and Libraries declares itself as striving, to inculcate those high ideas which will make for morality among all races while the Klan proclaims itself as the knight errant to defend the virtue of the women of one distinct race. Amercian civilization through its centers of religion, arts, refinement and culture declares for lofty ideas based upon the great fundamentals of Liberty, Justice and Equality before the eternal laws of the land while the Klan asserts itself as the fostering spirit of a determined Americanism, backing its assertions by acts criminal in every aspect against a race as yet too noble in its aspirations to retaliate.
American civilization with the employment of all its moral agencies has not been able to check the encroachment of the base sexual tendencies of the white race upon the black race as is attested by the complexion of the black race in America, and yet the Klan proclaims itself as the great moral force born in the dark but to baze forth in all the glory of a noonday run lighting the path of honor and virtue to the glorious end that a new spirit of chivalrous defence of womanhood in America may dazzle the world. American civilization declares itself through its various channels of law and order; its well determined solution of social, political, and economical problems; it's established civil government which has blossomed forth from virgin principles that have been nurtured by the blood of countless heroes both white and black, as being able to maintain a reliable form of government stable in its every act and purpose based upon the essentials of an absolute Democracy firmly entrenched against Socialististic upheaval.
Bolshevic insurrection, and anarchic conflation but over night within the limits of its bounds is born a body of men who by their every movement, strive to usher in a situation which
must eventually lead to racial misunderstanding that may place the very life of American civilization at stake.
The Ku Kux Klan is an indictment of American Civilization on from every point of view, and if the Klan is in the most minutiae respect essential to the wider development or progressive trend of Americanism than American Civilization has been a gigantic failure, and this the Colored American inspiro of' the defects which he has found woven in the fabric of the government which he loyally supports is not yet ready to admit.
Not because of the unfair fight which it makes against a weaker race nor yet because it is but a stop behind the darkest days of Russia's persecution of the Jews, Turkey's assault upon on the Armenians, Germany's policy in Belgium, The Klan should and will be crushed because it is unfair indictment of every principle advocated by the Eternal Truths of American Civilization. The Colored citizen of America has lived through the dark shadows and terrific storm that marked the period of one Ku Klux Klan's unsuccessful progress and emerged from the storm center strengthened by its terrors to achieve greater victories along all lines of progress and he will live on to see the death and burial of the present day Klan if not by the forces of American Civilization by the forces of the awakened, moral sentiment of the World. The eyes of the World Disarmament and pondering upon the course America will assume against the disarmament of the armed force of the Invisible Empire within her bounds. The great question of the present day advanced by the Ku Klux Klan is "Can an Invisible Empire with fixed laws and customs with armed forces to carry out the edicts of its legislative council, exist within the bounds of a republic challenging the world with its marks of a higher civilization, and can the indictment of such an Invisible Empire stand with the approval of the republic."

St. Mary Baptist.
St Mary Baptist Church, Corner 12th & Wabash, Rev. J. E. Douglas, pastor. Services each Sabbath; preaching, 11:30 a. m. and 8:00 p. m., by the pastor. Services were very good on last Sunday; the Rev. seemed to have been at his best. Our Sunday School Work is in fine shape, Bro. A. Washington, Supt., still has the rope of recuperation and says that he will not stop until the hill of success is topped. We have an enrollment 137 pupils and are looking for more.
In explaining the cause of the Apostle Paul writing to the church at Corinth, and that was, that contention had ails in the church, we got avision and saw ourselves of today in the same shape, and attempted to make known the need of love's kindness, love's contentment, love's humility, love's faith, love's hope, love's endurance, and the things that cause us as Christians to fill.
At the close of the losson, our pastor introduced Mrs. Fleming of Watts, Calif., who lectured to us; and say it was timely is paying the least. Mrs. Fleming will speak for us Thursday night at St. Mary Baptist Church. Come out and hear her.
At 11:30 a.m., our minister, Rev. J. E. Douglas, delivered a sermon to us from John 14:2-3; "I go to prepare a place for you, and if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again and receive you unto myself, that where I am, there ye may be also" All seemed to have enjoyed the service.
At 6 o'clock, Bro. E. L. Newton, President of the B. Y. P. U., was on hand; a splendid session was enjoyed. The subject of the evening being: "Biblcl—Saving Power of The Word." The value of God's word seemed to have been the leading feature. Bro. Newton has worked very hard to build up the Union and how he has succeeded is found by attending, to soon for yourself, the interest. It is growing trees high, over there. After the Union, a song was sung
WICHITA, KANSAS, FRIDAY, Oct. 21, 1921.
Atty. Scott is at the Rooft of Tulsa Riot.
By The Negro Associated Press
TULSA, OKLA. Oct. 21—Elisha
Scott of Topka, Kansas, one of the
attorneys retained by the Tulsa riot
victims, has a signed affidavit in his
possession that when produced will
throw an entirely new light on the
insurrection carefully planned by the
whits here on May 31 last.
It is the confession of a former Tulsa, policeman, Van B. Hurley (white) and consists of 21 pages. Hurley, who was honorably discharged from the force and given splendid recommendations by his captains and lieutenants, names several prominent city officials who has declared mit in a downtown office and carefully planned the attack on the segregated district by the use of airplanes. He gives in detail a description of the conference between local aviators and the officials.
After this meeting Hurley asserted the airplanes darted out from hangers and hovered over the district dropping n troglucerine on buildings, setting them afire. When questioned regarding instructions from police officials shortly before the riot, his answer was as follows:
"They gave instructions for every man to be ready and on the altrt and if the niggers wanted to start anything to be ready for them. They never put forth any efforts at all to prevent it what, ver, and said if they started anything to kill every d... son of a b... they could find." Gustafson, who was chief of police at the time, was later dismissed.
"On the morning of June 1, they gave me orders to go over to the Negro district." Hurley said. "There was a bunch of rozues, the lower class of white people, stealing, and robbing and bursting open trunks and carrying off stuff. Well, I found conditions unspeakable in the way of robbery. I arrested eight and turned them over to the petrol, but that is the last I ever saw of them or heard of them. I don't suppose they ever reached the fail."
Hurey says draws came later and moved the stolen articles away, despite the fact that the Bay Scouts guarding the district, had strict orders to permit only Red Cross cars. It was the former policeman's opinion that members of our Race fought in self-defense. However, he punctured his remark with an exception, naming those who came to the court-house to avoid the proposed lynching of Dick Rowland.
The confession also involves a well known police official. He is Capt. George G. Blaine. Hurey stated that Blaine rode in one of the airplanes that hovered over the district during the slot.
and prayer was offered and the minister again across and from the 15th chapter of St. Luke, 18th verse, preached: "I will arise and go to my father, and I will say unto him, father, I have sinned against heaven, and before thee;" He discussed the downward course; and then the upward course; the story of a boy and an old man. At the close, a strong young man came forward and joined for baptism, and on next Sunday morning, we have three for baptism. Thank God for all.
We thank the membership and the public for the collection which was $148.80.
We have a strong pray r meeting, come out and sing and pray with us. We will help you while you help us. Christian Co-operation is one of the things we most need; let's get together and try to save or help God to save these sinner filends, and we will be blessed. The report of Bro. George Cotton, last Sunday night from h's entertainment was the best for some time, $34.00. Bro. John Crane, church clerk assisted by Bro. James Douglass, Jr., is keeping the records.

According to the will of God, a great day has dawned for, New Hope, in
THE Recital even Wednesday evening at Calvary Baptist Church by Miss Hazel Harrison, left absolutely no doubt in the minds of those present, of the matchless ability of Miss Harrison as a pianist. Her technic spoke for itself. Her touch and wonderful observance of dynamics, held the attention of the entire audience throughout the program. She really felt every composition she rendered, and her interpretation and explanations made the program not only more interesting but gave the hearers a deeper appreciation of the beauty in musc. Her charming personality shed rays about her life a spot light and every one noticed she not only had music for all, but a pleasantness that does not accompany all artists of such note. Miss Harrison, without doubt, stands among the World's best pianist and of her, the race is justly proud.
In addition to the music given by the great pianist three other numbers were reenlered at rest periods: Mr. Casper Haynes played a beautiful organ number. "Melody in G." Miss Myrtle Letcher sang a beautiful solo, "Life's Lullaby," and Miss Launa Rawes gave an excellent reading from Longfellow's "Hiawatha"—The Fiming. See what you missed? Think what you missed and don't miss the next big recital that comes to Wichita.
Prof. F. L. Barnett, deserves much c. dit in securing the service of such a noted talent for Wichita's hearing. Mr B. H. Neely is to be wonderfully complimented and was highly complimented by the art's for such an excellent program and immense audience in response to his advertising.

which He will enlarge her borders and do more in His name and for His sake.
Sunday morning, Oct. 16th, A. D. 1921, members and friends of the New Hope Baptist Church assembled for the first service and worship in the first auditorium of our Greater New Hope, on the corner of 9th and Ohio.
At 6:00 a.m., guided by the Holy Spirit, our minister, Dr. E. T. Fishback, began to conduct a gorious meeting of prayer, praise, rong, and test-mony. This glorious thanksgiving prayer meeting was graced with many participants. The first contribution was made and it will go to Home and Foreign Mission Work.
At eleven A. H., the first song in His honor was, "Oh for a Thousand Tongues to Sng."
The following Scripture lesson was read by Dr. Ferrisch; Prov. 3rd chapter, and 24th Parlm. Dr. Fishback, using for a text, Haggal 2:1:9. Subject: "The Vision of This House which should Inspire All its builders Through All the Per-
ills," preached the everlasting, glorious Gospel. His message was timely, eloquent, spiritual. Hearts were made to rejoice and grand old ha lelu ahs rang out.
The pastors of the city and many of their members and our other friends were gladly welcomed at three p. m., also Dr. J. H. Van Leu, our State Supt., of Missions was requested by our pastor to introduce the associate ministers of the city and in his own unmitateable way he did so. Each responded with short excellent address. If some names are omitted, please pardon correspondent.
Among those responding were Dr. S. B. Butler, Dr. J. R. Ransom, Dr. Little, Dr. Ferrisch, and Dr. Edmond. At seven p. m., the congregation was highly gratified to hear he rendition of a apenid B. Y. P. U. Program. Every number was good. Re-assembling at eight p. m., the congregation gave attention to Dr. J. H. Van Leu, who used as a text, Acts 1:8. Subject: "We Shall Receive Power." Our minister read the Scripture Lesson from the one hundred and eighteenth Psalm. A great sermon was preached. And what shall I say of Monday evening when New Hope threw open her doors and invited the city to our reception?
Palms, ferns, and other potted plants, with the tasteful festooning made the interior beautiful. Our minist. r and his wife were at the head of the receiving line. With them were Mr. Dudley Johnson, representing the Deacon Board, Capt. W. L. Hutcherson representing the Men's Bible Class. Dr. G. G. Brown, Chairman of Trusted Board, Mr. Shad Jones, Treasurer and foreman for the work on our new building, Mrs. C. Tillman, President of the Women's Missionary Society, Mr. James McAfee, President of the B. Y. P. U., Mrs. M. L. Copeland, representing the Cradle Roll, Mr. H. Parks, Chorister, Mrs. I. F. Bates as Mistress of Ceremonies, was at her best. Mrs. Pearl Robinson and Miss Mildred Griffin had charge of the register. Miss Othella Lewis and Mrs. M. Dunn decorated each one with a souvenir. Mrs. G. G. Brown and Mrs. Lena Smith were conductors. Punch was served by Mrs. Lizzie Harris and others.
A silver purse was donated by the members of New Hope to our minister and his wife; afterwhich the members of the receiving line made short talks. Mrs. Bates made the presentation speech, The HI "Y" and Triangle Boys gave a fine entertainment Tuesday evening. Hurrh! for Capt. Hutcherson. Mrs. Doris Hardy and her staff of he pers gave a musical and literary program Wednesday night. They covered themselves with glory.
Don't forget that the Baptist Western Convention convenes in Omaha, Neb. Oct. 29. Our own Mrs. I. F. Bates is the honored President of the Women's Department of the Convention. (It is the Women's Missionary Convention.) Surprise the President by going and boosting everything that is right. Mrs. Bates will leave Wichita, for Omaha, Sunday night, the Lord willing. Our prayers accompany her,

In a little stone school-house in the rather isolated school district No. 8, there gathered on the 1st Sunday in October, the happiest group of sociable individuals to be found in many a bad day's search. When we see or hear of something unusual, we seek the cause and in this instance we do not have to seek far.
It was the 12th meeting of the Logansport Township Sunday School Convention. Five Sunday Schools were present, which constituted a nice crowd for so sparsely settled a country as Western Kansas, especially, Logen County.
After the morning service which consisted mainly of songs by the various Sunday School Choirs and a masterful sermon of "Devotion" by Rev. M. S. Jones, pastor in charge. The noon hour was announced. The writer feels his inability to express his views of the exquisite, dainty, delicious, inspiring luncheon, so, will only say that it was an inexpressib- v. glorious occasion.
Afternoon the business of the Convent on was placed under discussion, Miss Bernice Nevins, accomplished Secretary of the Convent'on read the report of the business transacted at the Convention, held in Oakley, following which report, plans were moved and adopted for the progress of the next Convention to be held in January. Among the visitors present and introduced to the Convent'on, were Mr. D. S. Jones of South Logan, Mrs. Brown of Oakley, and Miss Orebla Louis, of Friend, Kansas.
The Logansport Township Sunday School Convention has realized progress by leaps and bounds; and although it has been organized only three years, it compares favorably with organizations of twice its age, if we compare them as to (1) Foreign Missionary support, (2) Local Inspiration. May the Convention live forever in the minds of is loyal members and supporters.

ATLANTA, GA. Oct. 21—An e'oquent appeal for liberalism and a scathing arraignment of those who sow discord by arraying race against race and creed against creed thrilled the congregation of the West End Baptist Church at the last Sunday morning services. Dr. Warren Mosby Soay was talking of the new era which should dawn among men when he declared that the first element of it was a new liberalism.
"The time was, "said he, "when the followers' of him who meek and lowly, who gave us the sermon on the mount, who was the very embodiment of love, burnt each other at the stake for Jesus' sake. This was done by Catholics, but it is also true that Protestants did the same thing.
"Any organization, whether civic or religious, that arrays race against race or creed against creed or sect against sect, or sows the seed of suspicion and hate in the heart of man against h's fellow man, neither fosters true Americanism nor promotes the spirit of the religion of Jesus Christ. We need a religion that will have nothing to do with racial and religious intolerance.
NO RESPECT FOR CHURCH NOR LAW
NO RESPECT FOR CHURCH NOR LAW
By The Negro Associated Press BLACKWELL, OKLA. Oct. 21—More than .00 men wearing robes of the Ku Klux-Klan filed thru the First Methodist church here during church services, and stopping in front of Rev. Fred Mesh, the spokeman said, "We know you are not with us, but we are behind you, 3,000 strong, in Kay county." His speech concluded, the spokesman turned and the leader of the group bearing a huge cross lighted with torches, preceded the remainder of the body down anisle and out the door.
The Klansman carried banners stating, "We stand for 100 per cent Americanism," and "We bow on'y to the law, but we want the law enforced by the right officers."
The band disappeared almost immediately after leaving the church, Rev. Mesh has been emphatic in his appeals for observance of the law, and its enforcement, according to members of his congregation.

A FEW HOURS AT THE CENTRAL
¥. M. CG. AY
Ls Saturday evening was the
enjoyable occas‘on for a great
number of Invited guests to be pres-
ent at the Sir Gere Willitins’ Cen-
tennial Anniversary, which consisted
of # splendd luncheon and progrem.
‘The luncheon consisted of grape fruit,
fruit 2a ad, peas, white potatoes, fried
chicken, coffee, hot rolls, butt’r, and
ice cream. It was well prepared and
richly served. Two solos while wo ate,
were for the sweetening of our souls
forthe great things thit were to fol-
‘low, At the conclusion of the supper,
we stood and sarg with the spirit, “Oh
Teil The Power of Jesus’ Name.” A
fervent prayer shaped ou our souls to
"receive the great messages brought
from across the sea where Sir Wil-
jams was born and from London,
where he organized this grest agency
for good among humanity all over this
vvorld. We heard from the fields of
South America; and we enjoyed im-
riensely the address from Drs, Wel!s
end P.erce, Out of their storc-houses
of knowledge, we fersted untiringly
and were only sorry when the end
ame, Dr. Pierce has provid to be a
square mpn in every field that ea Ted
hum to service and all humanity felt
Tis powerfal Influencd for uplift and
development. Mr. Bleck was the reg
lator of the good will that made every
body fecl welcome, We wish that the
peop’e of the city could realize what
‘a big heart and soul that propt! tho
vetions of this ggreat character, We
feel lifted a few degrees higher to
have bcen present at this great ‘meit-
ing.
JF the race has not found a grect
friend in Dr, Ross Sanderson, it
is badly footed and we believe that a
reai co-operation and suggestions by
the htt e counsel that met at the A, M.
E. Church last Tuesday will be the
great means for a better relation be-
tween the two races; and a better riz
latfon means no riots and destructions
for Wichsta, which now has the beat
rece relation in America, We believe
that the Christian foree and the prop.
er understanding will be our only
safe-cuard from prejudices that mean
fruits of d’struction This counsel
consisted of representatives from
eight cotgregations of the city, We
were also favored with some va-uable
information about our children’s wel-
faro in the city by Mrs, Stokeley.
Great things are ytt to come for the
two recea as soon as they rightly un-
derstand each other.
A constructive, Christian work
for God and his race in this city and
v'einity, Rev. Dr. 8, B. Butler, pestor
of Calvary Baptist Church will within
the next few weeks leave to take up a
greater work in Indianapolis, Ind,
“By their fruits, ye shall know them”
saith the Lowly Nazarine. Dr, But-
ler, by the fruits of his Christien en-
deavors as a minister and gentleman
in this city has measured up to the
high standard and met the test. The
Star congratulates the cltizons of
Indicnapolls, upon having secured a
racc jeader who was a valient knight
of the army of Christ stands firm in
advocating those things which make
for the bettering of racial conditions
ard cdvancing of the Kingdom of
Meaven.
Nw HOPE BAPTIST CHURCH
of this clty, after years of pray-
ets, tears and cross-bearing, on last
Sunday tnjoyed the realization of its
efforts, and w'th an outburst of en-
thusfastic prayer, song,cnd eloquence,
Inte its new church which is destined
to become one of the great religious
edifices of the city and state. Praise
must be given Rev, Dr, Fishback and
bis congregation for their determined
efforts. Those who build for God
build for humanity, The churches of
jw race are not its burden but by the
Ine of principles and influences that
come from within thelr wells, stan:
lee 2 melt abes
out as God’s Levers to lift a race to
higher places in the world’s affairs.
| ecaal absolutely true to form

Grand State of Texts comes forward
with another Negro Roasting at Lees-
burg, There was a time when such af-
falis might have terrified the Ne-
groes, but that day has passed end in-
stead a svirit of d-gnified contempt is
aroused which serves as a spur to urge
thom on towards that success from
which they cannot be held by the sav-
age rttitude of any class or clan in
America. Such an exhibit‘on wil af-
ford great inspiration to the various
delegations to tht Disarmament
Conference, and perhaps increas,
their fcith in the spirit of Americen
Sinzer'ty relative to the dawn of
universal peace. They cry for pace
but there can be no peace brought
