Operates Officers of the 368th Regiment; PRESIDENT DISAPPROVES THE VERDICT Elaborate Exercises Held at Y.M.C.A. Opening Magnificent New Building on West 135th Street Thronged With Members and Friends-Many New Members. The exercises in connection with opening the handsome new Y. M. C. A building on 135th Street to the members and the general public, began on Saturday night, November 8, with an inspection of the building by the members. At 7.30 p.m. they began to arrive, and promptly at 8 o'clock they were shown over the building by the ushers who had volunteered and been trained for this work. The group of enthusiastic inspectors were passed on rapidly from one point of interest to another until the whole magnificent plant had been seen and explained. They were then ushered into the gymnasium where a program was presented. FOR QUALITY READ THE NEW YORK AGE EXCELS IN NEWS AND OPERON THE HOME PAPER VOLUME 33. NO. 8. Exoperation GET ARMORY FOR 15TH IF MEN WILL ENLIST Building Will Be Erected Very Quickly if Ranks Can Be Recruited to Full Strength. That the Fifteenth Regiment of Infantry, New York Guard, will secure an armory in a much shorter period of time comparatively speaking, than has been the case with any other regiment in the State, is the opinion of Brigadier General George R. Dyer, commandant, 1st Brigade, New York Guard, but this opinion is qualified by a very significant proviso. And this proviso—Well, to get to the bayonet's point Gen. Dyer ordered all the officers of the 15th Regiment to meet at their headquarters, 2217 Seventh avenue. When they were assembled, the General made a speech concerning the much-discussed and much-wanted armory. He said that the armory would be gotten very quickly provided—The people showed that the armory was wanted by quickly filling up the ranks of the 15th Regiment to the required strength. Mon Must Enlist. It was emphasized that the serious phase of the question is the cooperation of the people. And this cooperation can only be shown by filling up the depleted ranks. The armory, which will be of great good to the community, cannot be had unless the people show that it is wanted. Members of the famous "369th", the original 15th, which saw service in France, and has bee ncrowned with garlands of honor for heroic achievements, are asked specially to reenlist with their old regiment, and it is hoped that they will respond. Enlistments, if made before January 1, 1920, may be for one year only, if desired. It is announced that the Governor of New York is to select ten men from the ranks of the National Guard who will have an opportunity to take the examination for entrance to West Point Military Academy. All guardsmen, between the ages of 19 and 22, will be eligible, and members of the 15th can apply through their commanding officers to the adjutant general for a chance at the appointment.

The election of Dr. Charles H. Roberts and George W. Harris as members of the Board of Aldermen of New York City, and Miss Margaret L. Smith and Counselor J. C. Hawkins as members of the New York Assembly, afford some interesting comparisons by reason of the pluralities received by the various candidates. For instance, it is pointed out by well informed observers that the 19th Assembly District, in which Miss Smith and Dr. Roberts live, is normally a Democratic district, while the 21st Assembly District, on the other hand, is a Republican district. Mr. Hawkins and Mr. Harris are in the 21st. Miss Smith was elected by a plurality of 634, while Mr. Hawkins's plurality was 3,148. Dr. Roberts was elected by 529 votes. Mr. Harris by 511 votes.

G. O. F. (Spc. Oklahoma) Analysis of the pluralities shows that in a Democratic district the Republican candidate for the Assembly, Miss Smith, received only 55 more votes than did the Republican candidate for Alderman, Dr. Roberts. It shows, also that efforts made by certain disgruntled elements to inject racial prejudice into the campaign were of no avail. A. Striking Contrast. On the other hand, in a normal Republican district, the candidate for Alderman, Mr. Harris, ran 2,637 votes behind the Assembly candidate, Mr. Hawkins, who was running for re-election. Another interesting fact in this connection is that in a Republican district Mr. Harris received a plurality smaller by 68 votes than did Dr. Roberts in a normally Democratic district. Much of the success of Dr. Roberts' campaign is attributed to the astute and wise campaign manager, Ralph E. Langston, who directed affairs in the Roberts' headquarters. Another worker who should be given credit was Charles E. Murray, who was Mr. Langston's assistant in charge of the headquarters. Mr. Murray lives in the 41st election district, and it was there that the insurgents concentrated their opposition to Miss Smith and Dr. Roberts. But, due largely to Mr. Murray's carefully prepared plan of elastic expressions of satisfaction and approval. The first two days of the opening have proved that the people Harlem are proud of their association building, and the way the mercury in the membership registering thermometer on the front of the building is rising indicates that they mean to support it. NO RACE, CREED, COLOR, SAYS UDGE HASKEL, "The obligation of keeping our ordinary uninsured as a tribunal for equal justice to rich and poor alike, irrespective of race, race or COLOR, will be faithfully performed." These words constitute a part of the first statement given out by Congressman Reuben L. Haskell who was elected on Tuesday, November 4, to the bench of the Kings County Court. Mr. Haskell, nominated in the Republican primary after a hard and bitter fight, was elected by a plurality greater by 10,000 votes than was given to any other candidate on the Republican ticket. In acknowledging the returns showing his election, Mr. Haskell said: "My election as County Judge by a handsome majority is a splendid vote of confidence, for which I acknowledge my deep gratitude to the people of Brooklyn. "I appreciate the great trust the people have conferred upon me. "Much this means to me personally, it has a permanence. "The obligation of keeping our ordinary uninsured as a tribunal for equal justice to rich and poor alike, irrespective of race, race or color, will be faithfully performed." NEW YORK, N. Y., SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 15, 1919. action, both candidates carried that election district by large majorities. Miner, Pauline Dempsey was in charge of the women voters in the 19th A D., and rendered valuable service in making friends for the Republican candidates. Y. M. C. A. WORKERS TO HOLD MEETINGS. Colorado Y. M. C. A. workers will be prominently identified with the fortiest international convention at Detroit, Mich. November 19 to 23. More than one hundred selected colored workers will be among the several thousand in attendance; the delegates representing every phase of Y. M. C. A. work, including city, student, industrial, county, railroad, community and national war work associations. Another meeting of strong interest will be that of the Student Volunteers of the World, which will hold its eighth international convention at Des Moines, Ia. December 31, 1919, to January 4, 1920. Of the more than 7,000 undergraduates from American schools and colleges to be in attendance, about three hundred will be from Negro schools. A large number of the men doing volunteer work in foreign fields, colored as well as white, will return to America for that meeting. Boston, Mass. At a mass meeting called to protest mob violence in the United States, James Weldon Johnson, contributing editor of The New York Age and field secretary of the N.A. C.P., was the principal speaker in Tremont Temple on Sunday afternoon, November 9. Mountfield Storey presided and other speakers were Congressman Martin B. Madden and Gen. John H. Sheehurne. In the evening Mr. Johnson addressed the Community Forum, a body made up of university men and students in Boston. G. O. P. CONGRESSMAN WINS IN OKLAHOMA Oklahoma City, Okla.—Republicans have elected a Congressman from the Fifth Congressional District of Oklahoma for the first time in the history of the state. J. W. Harreld, a Republican of Oklahoma City, is the new member of Congress, and he was elected by more than 700 majority. Claude Weaver, his Democratic opponent, made his platform an unqualified endorsement of President Wilson's league of nations' covenant, while Mr. Harreld opposed it. The late J. B. Thompson, whose death caused the vacancy which this election was called to fill, was elected a year ago by 4,000 majority and in the last Presidential election the district went Democratic by nearly 7,000 votes. Senator Gore of Oklahoma, Democrat, has been voting with the Republicans on the treaty, and he comes up for relection next year. Scott Ferris is opposing Senator Gore for the nomination. The Senator, has been attacked for failing to support the President and for having been one of the twelve "willful men" denounced by the President. TUSKEGEE TO HOLD ANNUAL CONFERENCE. (Special to THE NEW YORK ACE.) Tuskegee, Ala.-The annual Tuskegee Negro conference is to be held January 21 and 22, preceded by the annual two weeks' Short Course in Agriculture from January 5 to 17. Topics for the conference are being prepared. The railroads of the South have granted a special rate of one and one-third fare from all points. Because his wife went to work in a cabaret at 132nd street and Seventh avenue, William Sanford, a musician, 32 years old, of 2400 Seventh avenue, is in jail facing trial for the murder of Policeman John J. McCormick, who died from pistol shot wounds Monday night, November 10. When Sanford found his wife at work he tried to persuade her to return home. When she refused, the musician became infurred and struck her, over the head with his revolver. The impact caused the gun to explode and a panic ensued in the cabaret. Sanford ran into the street and Officer McCormick, who had heard the shot, started toward him. Sanford fired and the bullet plauged through McCormick's thigh. The officer did not stop but attempted to close in on the madman, drawing his service revolver at the same time. But another bullet that struck in his groin fellled McCormick to the ground. The sound of the shots attracted other policemen, who followed Sanford. Two shots were fired by the fugitive but the officers finally overhailed him on 131st street, near Eighth avenue, and he was placed under arrest. In the meantime McCormick had been rushed to Harlem Hospital, where it was found that an artery had been severed. The surgeons decided that blood transfusion would be necessary to save his life, and more than twenty of his brother officers volunteered to give up their blood for him. But he died before the men could even reach the hospital. McCormick, who had been on the force only three weeks, before dying, identified Sanford as his assailant, and the man was taken to the West 135th street station charged with murder. His wife, Edna, is being held a material witness. She had to be given treatment for hurts on the head. On Tuesday Magistrate Mancuso held Sanford without bad for a hearing on November 18. RUN OVER BY AUTO, LAY ON ROAD FOR HOURS. NEWARK, N. J. —The victim of some heartless, unknown automobiltist, Everett J. Brown, of Norfolk street, a well-known painter and decorator, is in the Elizabeth hospital with a leg broken in three places. Mr. Brown was returning from Plainfield, riding his motor cycle, when he was run over by an auto, the driver of which did not stop to render his victim any assistance. After laying on the roadside for several hours, he was picked up and taken to the hospital by a party who chance to be passing. His condition is serious. There is no clue to the machine which injured him. JONES TELLS WOMEN DEBT MUST BE PAID The Women's Presbyterian Home Missionary Society of New York, meeting at 150 Fifth Avenue on Friday, November 7, was addressed by Eugene Kinckle Jones, executive secretary of the National Urban League, on "Social Service Among Negroes." Fifty-five churches were represented at the meeting, three to five delegates being present from each branch. Mr. Jones emphasized the fact that denial of opportunity to any race brings direct consequences, and that industrial opportunity will be forever denied colored men unless they are accorded their other human rights. Arguing that the natural law of compensation is rolling up a debt which the community as a whole must sometime pay, Mrs. Jones said: "No one doubts that the recent race riots in Washington, Chicago and Omaha, cities where civilization and regard for law and order had reached a high point, were possible only because of the feeling quite generally that mobs suffer no ill consequences of their deeds. When white men find that there is no punishment attached to their assaults on colored girls in the South they will not hesitate long in approaching white women. In fact, the records of New York City, showing the number of rapes on white women by white men, are appalling. Men cannot change the law of Nature. The debt of ingratitude and injustice must some day be paid." Secretary Baker Says White and Colored Officers Were Given Like Accommodations But Separation Was Unnecessary. Washington, D. C.—The policy of segregating colored officers on board ship and discriminating against them on account of their color is condemned by Secretary Baker, who, in a statement given out for public perusal declares that "this segregation was unnecessary and should not have been made." In discussing the indignities to which colored officers were subjected on the George Washington the Secretary of War says: "The allegations of face discrimination are based upon the assignment of staterooms, dining rooms and deck space on board the George Washington on the trip to France. In fact, the staterooms assigned to colored officers were equal in character and location to those assigned to white officers of corresponding grades and were no more crowded than the latter. The after dining room assigned to colored officers was assigned in every office, though assigned to white officers, though somewhat smaller. Both dining rooms were located on the same deck, and the food served and service given in them were of the same quality. The principal reason for assigning colored officers to a separate dining room was the fact that the size lent itself well to the accommodation of the officers of a resident. The after end of one deck overlooked a position of a lower deck upon both sides of the room given. The same for spectators war divided between colored and white officers. While by this arrangement white and colored officers were given like accommodations, the separation was unnecessary and should not have been made." (Special to THE NEW YORK ACE) Baltimore, MD - The attacks C. Marcellus Dorsey, Catholic layman, has made against alleged prejudicial conditions operating against colored Catholics, have aroused Catholics working here among the race. Dorsey, writing in last week's "Afro-American" charged that white priests working in the Josephite Order are blocking the chances of colored men becoming priests. Dorsey is a brother of the Rev. J. Henry Davis, colored, in charge of St. Monica's Catholic Church. "The Rev. Conrad Rabescher, priest in charge of St. Barnabas Catholic Church, read Mr. Dorsey's latest attack at each mass on Sunday." MEN OF 15th BUY A $1,000 CERTIFICATE The Fifteenth Regiment, N. Y. G. is probably the first body of troops to invest $1,000 in a U. S. treasury savings certificate. At a recent meeting of the officers of the regiment, the Thrift Citizens Movement was endorsed by a resolution adopted, and the Government Loan Organization advised that the regiment had purchased the certificate. The men, according to their officers, are exhibiting their patriotism in support of the government and at the same time are building up for themselves a financial reserve. PROVIDING HOMES FOR WASHINGTON FAMILIES. WASHINGTON, D. C. The problem of housing the Negro population in Washington is being solved in part through the building operations conducted by the Industrial Savings Bank and John W. Lewis. Other factors in the problem are the Harry A. Kite Company, Harry Wardman and the H. R. Howenstein Company, these being white operators who are carrying on large building operations. Just now there are being erected in the Howard University neighborhood by Harry A. Kite sixteen sixroom houses, with all improvements, to be sold only to colored purchasers. These homes, located on the 700-block of Kenyon street, are of brick in a colonial design. The Ernest Hall-Coalidge Co. is in charge of the sale of ten houses, and it is said that two or more of them have been sold before completion. t; VERDA NO DISCR OFFICERS Officers Co partial Find O but President es Their Fin ERS HOME War Baker Made President and Rec ch Removes Stig word of Brave Me Prejudiced Officers Composing Courts Martial Find Officers Guilty But President Wilson Reverses Their Findings 3 OFFICERS HONORED Secretary of War Baker Made Exhaustive Report to President and Recommended Action Which Removes Stigma from Record of Brave Men.

C. - The United States Government has refused to be a party to the plot to discredit the colored officer, and upon the recommendation of the Secretary of War Baker, the President has directed the disapproval of the proceedings involving the four officers convicted by court-martial in France in connection with the retirement of a portion of the 308th Infantry. This disposes of the cases of all the officers involved, and instead of criticising any of the colored men with commissions, Secretary Baker in his statement for the public refers to the Distinguished Service Crosses several of the officers of the 308th received for extraordinary bravery under fire. The four officers of the regiment who were under sentence but now absolved from any charges of cowardice whatsoever are Capt. Daniel Smith, Lieut. Horace R. Crawford, Lieut. Robert W.

G. O. P. BEST FRIEND TO RACE. SAYS PASTOR (Special to THE NEW YORK AGEN) Baltimore, Md. - Asserting that the Republican party offered the best hope for the race in securing better privileges, the Rev. M. H. Davis, in the course of a sermon at St. James A. M. E. Church Sunday afternoon, contrasted the history of the party and that of the Democrats with regard to the Negro. Tis theme was "Political Parties and the Negro. He told his hearers that the apparent election of a Democrat to be governor of Maryland meant that those things in which the Negro had a big interest, such as good schools and public health, would be retarded somewhat so far as the race is concerned. VOCATIONAL TRAINING Detroit, Mich.—"Negroes are learning to do more and more things well. Vocational training for them, therefore, must be more varied and more thorough than if has been," declared Dr. James E. Gregg, principal of Hampton Institute, before the National Urban League. In 896 Negroes were conducting 2,100 business enterprises. Today they are conducting 500,000. In 1896 the accumulated wealth of American Negroes was $20,000,000. Today it is $1,110,000,000. In emphasizing vocational training I am not forgetting or believing the importance of cultural training. PRICE FIVE CENTS Women Volunte in Conference Meeting of Y. W.

THE NEW YORK AGE, SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 15, 1819 Plot to Derecet Negro Officers Fails tion of colored troops in this battle or elsewhere in France. On the contrary it is to be noted that many colored officers; and particularly three in the very battalion here under discussions; were decorated with Diligentinking Service Crosses for heroulum under fire." When Dr. R. R. Moton, Dr. W. E. B. Du Bois and Lester A. Walton arrived in France last December they were informed at Brest that white American officers had started a propaganda to discredit the colored officers by circulating the report that the 368th Infantry had failed under fire in the Argonne, due to cowardice shown by colored officers under fire. Dr. Moton at once set to work to disapprove these accusations. Decorated by the French. Although colored officers of the old 8th Illinois as well as other regiments with race officers had been decorated by the French for bravery, an effort was made to prove that all colored commissioned officers were failures. The conviction of Capt. Daniel Smith, Lieut. Horace R. Crawford, Lieut. Robert Cheers and Lieut. Robert E. Johnson gave those actively engaged in their vicious work against loyal Americans an opportunity to spread their propaganda more effectively. When the four officers in question were tried eight were in favor of conviction while the other four white officers were unalterably opposed to such a finding, holding that it was unfair. They set forth the contention that the 308th, like other regiments during the Argonne fight, were surrounded by barbed wire with the enemy using machine guns with deadly effect, and that the colored fighters were into battle without wire cutters and other necessary implement. The battalion of the 308th subjected to criticism was under a white tactical commander who was accused of being absent from his post during the fighting. Although this Major was originally accused of department unbecoming an officer the four colored men were made the "goats." ST. JAMES CHURCH.

Lieut. McKenna a Statement As To His Amount in New Orleans Denies that He Made Either Apology or Retraction-Signed Statement Simply Disclaimed Slander Charge. The following is a true and unbiased account of the controversy between Walter L. Cohen of New Orleans, and Lieut. O. E. McKaine of New York City, leading up to the indictment and arrest of the latter and subsequent dismissal of the case: To the Editor of The Age: Lieut. McKaine went to New Orleans at the invitation of colored members of the American Legion and League for Democracy for the purpose of curing, if possible, factional differences between them. In his speech on Monday evening, October 13, at the Pythian Temple, he emphasized the necessity of keeping the Legion free from entangling political alliances and influences, stating that he would tell the people of New Orleans how the actions of Walter L. Cohen prevented the seating of the colored delegates from Louisiana to the St. Louis caucus of the American Legion in his speech scheduled at Xavier University on Tuesday evening, October 14. Friends of Mr. Cohen telegraphed him that Lieut. McKaine had charged him with "selling out." Mr. Cohen telegraphed Lieut. McKaine demanding an immediate retraction. As Lieut. McKaine had not charged him with "selling out" he had nothing to retract and so told his audience on Tuesday evening at Xavier. He added in his speech, however, that at St. Louis Mr. Cohen had requested him to intercede with Col. Roosevelt and the credential committee of the American Legion to have the colored delegates from Louisiana seated; that he made an appointment with Col. Roosevelt and the committee; that before the time arrived for the appointment to be kept, Mr. Cohen informed him that he (Cohen) had arranged with the white delegates from Louisiana to seat the colored delegates; that the colored delegates were never seated and that inquiry among the white delegates elicited replies stating that they had never promised or agreed to seat the colored delegates. After repeated public demands, Mr. Cohen admitted before a ministers' conference that he did make the statement so charged. Cohen Obtained Warrant. After giving Mr. Cohen an opportunity to return to the city and defend himself, Mr. Cohen abused it by obtaining a warrant for Lieut. McKaine's arrest and having him arrested for statement he was alleged to have made on Monday evening. After the arrest, Mr. Cohen's friends attempted several times to have Lieut. McKaine guilty Mr. Cohen a "clean bill of health" which he persistently refused to do. At the trial Lieut. McKaine was approached several times by Mr. H. I. Braden, an intimate friend of Mr. Cohen, to have the case squashed, Lieut. McKaine referred all overtures and arrangements to his friend who had stuck by him. After being arranged and before being sworn, at the instigation and request of Mr. Cohen, the district attorney asked Lieut. McKaine's attorney, if Lieut. McKaine would sign a statement stating that he had not charged Mr. Cohen with "selling out" on Monday night. Lient. McKaine's attorney insisted that he would have to state this anyway on the witness stand and that he thought the case would be continued and be a long drawn out affair and advised him to sign it. Lient. McKaine told his attorney that he could not sign any statement or take any action until he had consulted his friends. The district attorney requested that the case he passed temporarily until consultation could be had. After consultation, the friends of Lient.

OUR NEW ADDRESS. JUDICIAL LYNCH LAW. According to the news dispatches, a species of judicial lynch law seems to have characterized the proceedings at Helena, Ark., in the trials of Negroes indicted upon charges growing out of the recent disturbances in the neighborhood of Elaine. Eleven convicted of first degree murder and sentenced to death, nine to terms of twenty-one years, twenty-seven to five years and one to ten years in the penitentiary were the net results of three days' trials. A further list of 122 indictments remained to be tried. The charge upon which the convictions were obtained was murder in the first degree, although unbiassed investigators from outside the State reported that the Negroes acted only in self-defense, when attacked by the whites. But evidently the local sentiment was too strong to afford a fair hearing of the defense in that part of Arkansas and an adverse verdict was a foregone conclusion. Indeed, it is doubtful if any defence was heard at all for few white lawyers in the State would care to undertake a case that would bring, only social opprobrium and a Negro lawyer would be heard at the risk of his life. The whole disturbance, which was styled an "uprising" by the white press, grew out of the attempt of the Negro tenant farmers to secure a fair and just share of the crops raised by them for the owners. Robbed year after year by the extortionate charges made by the owners for supplies, with no itemized accounts rendered, the cropper was virtually reduced to a stat of preonage, as he could not lease a farm while in debt to the owner, as it was made to appear. The organization formed by the Negro farmers and regularly chartered under the laws of Arkansas, was for the purpose of protecting the interests of the members, when they could not secure an equitable settlement from the owners of their farms. This was the extent of the "uprising" projected. But it was too revolutionary a project to be allowed to operate in Arkansas, and the white owners provoked violence, so as to justify their charges. Backed by the local authorities the Negroes have been arrested and intimidated with the result stated above. The execution of the eleven men convicted, if carried out, will complete this case of judicial lynching, equivalent to cold blooded murder. Upon Governor Brough of Arkansas will rest the responsibility for permitting this clumsy conspiracy to move to its tragic end. He is in a position to learn the truth of the whole matter and to act accordingly. Unless he acts speedily, more martyrs will be made to justify the planters' greed for dirty dollars. It is reported that Negroes are leaving that section of Arkansas.

The Mexican government seeks to avoid responsibility for the kidnapping of a United States consular officer by accusing his attorney of complicity in the plot. The present Mexican regim was never noted for lack of nerve, especially in its dealings with this country. Henry Clay Gray, the veteran Texas editor, is publishing a small but spicy sheet called the Meddler at Waxahachie, Texas. In a recent issue he paid his respects to the "only radical magazine in the world published by Negroes," and punctured some of its stilted pretensions most rudely. AN ACT OF JUSTICE Secretary of War Newton D. Baker has readied an act of justice to a battalion of the 36th Infantry by giving out a statement reviewing the charges made against this unit for its alleged failure to function properly in the Meuse-Argonne offensive. A special report made by the Secretary of War shows that this failure was due to unauthorized orders to withdraw. As the charges growing out of this withdrawal were used as a reflection upon the courage of the Negro troops as combat units, Secretary Baker make this authorized statement "In order that justice may be done to the officers, white and colored, and to the men of this regiment and in the hope that a resentful of the facts may make prejudice and distorted discussion impossible in the future. He also calls attention to the fact that "many colored officers and particularly three in the battalion under discussion, were decorated with the Distinguished Service Cross for extraordinary heroism under fire." After a recital of the circumstances attending the action in the battle of the Argonne, the report concludes: From the foregoing it is clear, that the incident arose in the midst of the battle in which the 3rd battalion was advancing under most unusual conditions, and where the judgment of officers unrilled in battle, however well trained, might easily err, and as to the withdrawals, there is strongly supported evidence that orders from some quarter was carried forward by runners directing the withdrawals, although the Investigation showed that no such written order had been issued. The circumstances disclosed by a detailed study of the situation do qualify many of the highly colored accounts which have been given of the behavior of the troops in this action, and they afford no basis at all for any of the general assumptions with regard to the action of colored troops in this battle or elsewhere in France. This report, together with the statement of the Secretary of War, constitutes a merited vindication of the Negro soldier, if such was needed, and redounds to the credit of the officials instrumental in clearing up this matter. The editor of "Harvey's Weekly" and other captious critic of the Negro as a soldier should profit by reading and digesting the same. FOR BETTER SCHOOLS. In discussing the opposition raised to the new school law in New York, which is attributed to the instigation of corrupt politicians, The Age ventured the opinion last week that the Negroes of that State could not be fooled for long into believing that better educational facilities are going to work them harm. On the contrary there is evidence to show that they are already enlisted in behalf of the extension of education for their children. Further investigation by the staff correspondent of the New York "Sun" as to the basis for the opposition to the new law brought out this fact: While many white school officials were making no efforts for advancement of education in the past Negroes were doing everything in their power to give their children better training than they had themselves. While wealthy white people in some sections were paying but 25 cents on every hundred dollars worth of taxable property toward the upkeep of their schools, and were protesting that expense, Negroes were voluntarily paying twice that rate, and one colored district was paying eight times that rate per hundred dollars worth of taxable property. It was found on investigation that in many Negro districts the colored folk loaned their coal oil lamps to the schools and volunteered to chop wood and make repairs, although in most cases their schools were unappeasable bad because of the impoverished condition of those who were obliged to support them. But there is something else to be learned from these resolutions; although they are written in the high-flow language of their period, they are nevertheless true and brave declarations. And the courage displayed through them by the colored people of the North in 1849 is an example to be followed by the colored people of the North in 1919. It is gratifying to have justice rendered to the race in Delaware by 2m unbiased investigator in this manner. While it was only reasonable to suppose that the colored people of Delaware stood in line with the general sentiment of the race in favor of better schools, it is well to have them recorded rightly in this particular. The resolution adopted at Cincinnati is worthy of special attention; because it not merely voices protest but reveals deep political sagacity. The colored people in adopting that resolution declared that they would remain in this country to be an AGITATING ELEMENT in American politics. That was the key to their strength and influence then, and it is the same to-day. When men have done wrong they desire nothing so much as to have their consciences left undisturbed about it. If the conscience of the nation had been allowed to go to sleep on slavery, slavery would not have been abolished. With this record for sacrifices in behalf of education in the past, it will be hard to lead them wrong on the present issue. With a plain presentation of the improvement scoutplanted under the new law, the Negroes of Delaware will undoubtedly support it in a body. We are confronted by a similar situation to-day. The South does not want its conscience disturbed about the wrongs and injustices done the Negro, and the North does not want its conscience disturbed about its responsibility in the matter. The consciences of both sections would like very much to be allowed to go to sleep on the Negro. If they are allowed to go to sleep it will mean stagnation, and stagnation will mean hopelessness for the Negro. Better a race riot or two than stagnation. A local contemporary says, "We have heard a sea captain tell that he has seen cocoa, which sells at from $400 to $500 a ton, in such abundance in Africa, that they could not get ships to carry it. And they were broken up to make roads with. A sad waste of sea carriers, if true. But then these sea tales are not to be taken too literally." As it was before the Civil War, it still is the duty of the colored people in the North to be an AGITATING ELEMENT in American politics, and not to let the national conscience find any rest in lynching, dismanchisement, Jim Crowism and the other wrongs to the race. If the colored people in the South cannot always agitate, they can at least encourage it on the part of their brethren in the North. THE MISTAKES OF LYNCH LAW. In the little town of Some Leath, 15 years old, mysterious morning about two weeks ago, berry, a tenant on the Leath plaza. The Memphis newspapers ran big scareheads across theirance of the girl and the man, and was searching for them both.

They show protesting against lynching are human treatment of the victim places on the whole race, but themselves, if men may be seized portunity to prove their innocence, guarded court of law. These two incidents also are innocent Negroes have been done circumstantial evidence or on fae. THE FAULTS IN O Time and again the plea he causes of mob law and lynching which are possible under the pro our courts. It has been claimed criminal taking advantage of this pose of delaying punishment in become impatient and take the case. There is no doubt that there an unfair advantage is taken on country; but it should be remem times stand in the way of swift people are often so impatient and pressly provided for. The law is based on the maxim that it is less than for one innocent man to be adhered to when a man's life is in the possibility of delays in our needs to be remedied, but it is which is very common in the court which twelve men have to render the facts and which is very often would be one against a white man. A despatch from Knoxville, in that city has issued an order served as jurors in the race riot white men and entering mistrials, serving as jurors in his court so. In entering the order he said, "cases was wholly unwarranted by such a thing has often happen courage to say and do what judge appear to be an inconsequential twelve men to violate their oaths contrary to the facts. Those who are anxious for a in our courts would do well to Nelson's court. In the little town of Somerville, Tennessee, a white girl, Ethel Leath, 15 years old, mysteriously disappeared early on a Sunday morning about two weeks ago. A colored man named William Seaberry, a tenant on the Leath place, disappeared about the same time. The Memphis newspapers coupled up the double incident and ran big scareheads across their front pages telling of the disappearance of the girl and the man, and giving the information that a posse was searching for them both. Later it developed that the girl had left home on account of some trouble with her father, and that the disappearance of the colored man had absolutely nothing to do with her. But suppose, in the meantime, a mob had gotten hold of William Seaberry. It is probable that these later developments would have been of no benefit to him. A few days after the Somerville incident, another in which the charge was not based on mere circumstantial evidence, but upon direct testimony, occurred at Little Rock, Arkansas. A white woman, Mrs. Ollie Davis, testified that she went to the home of "Aunt Lizzie" Battle, an old colored woman, and that John McKee, a colored man, followed her there and made improper proposals to her. On the testimony of Mrs. Davis John McKee was arrested on a charge of attempt to assault. McKee was given a hearing, and at that hearing not only established a good reputation, but proved to the satisfaction of the court that he was not at the place where the attack was alleged to have been made. It is needless to say that his proof must have been overwhelming. McKee was able to establish his innocence because he was given a trial according to due process of law. How much of a chance would he have had to establish his innocence if he had fallen into the hands of a mob? These two incidents illustrate how no Negro is safe so long as lynch law prevails. They show that law-abiding colored people in protesting against lynching are not only protesting against the inhuman treatment of the victim and the brand of disgrace which it places on the whole race, but also against the lack of security to themselves, if men may be seized and done to death without the opportunity to prove their innocence before a duly constituted and safeguarded court of law. These two incidents also raise the question as to how many innocent Negroes have been done to death by mobs on insufficient circumstantial evidence or on false testimony. THE FAULTS IN OUR COURTS OF LAW. Time and again the plea has been made that one of the main causes of mob law and lynching is found in the technical delays which are possible under the procedure which regulates practice in our courts. It has been claimed that the people, when they see a criminal taking advantage of this and that technicality with the purpose of delaying punishment indefinitely or escaping it altogether, become impatient and take the law into their own hands. There is no doubt that there are times when what seems to be an unfair advantage is taken of the method of procedure in this country; but it should be remembered that the delays which sometimes stand in the way of swift execution of the law and of which the people are often so impatient are not imperfections, they were expressly provided for. The law and the procedure in the courts are based on the maxim that it is better for ten guilty men to go free than for one innocent man to be punished. This maxim is especially adhered to when a man's life is at stake. The possibility of delays in our courts may be a fault and one that needs to be remedied, but it is not so serious a fault as another which is very common in the courts of the South; that is, the power which twelve men have to render a verdict not in accordance with the facts and which is very often exercised when the just verdict would be one against a white man and for a Negro. A despatch from Knoxville, Tennessee, states that Judge Nelson in that city has issued an order by which the twelve men who served as jurors in the race riot cases last August, freeing fourteen white men and entering mistrials as to five others, are debarred from serving as jurors in his court so long as he is the presiding officer. In entering the order he said, "The verdict of the jury in the said cases was wholly unwarranted by the facts." Such a thing has often happened, but seldom has a judge had the courage to say and do what Judge Nelson said and did. Mere delays appear to be an inconsequential fault in a procedure which allows twelve men to violate their oaths and deliberately bring in a verdict contrary to the facts. Those who are anxious for a reform in the way law is dealt out in our courts would do well to consider what happened in Judge Nelson's court. New York Democrats are inclined to insist that the defeat of their local candidates was due to the general unpopularity of the Wilson Administration. The Republicans profited by this swing of votes to their side by gaining two members of the Board of Estimate, Supreme Court and County judges, aldermen and assemblymen, besides several county officers. All in all, the results indicated a shift of sentiment among the voters of the greatest city in the country. sheriff's deputies with red pepper. These officials, to protect their eyes, wore auto goggles and arrested their assailants. A Kansas City woman was fined $35 for shooting at her husband, plus an amusement tax of twenty-five cents. A cheap sport, provided you don't hit the target. A PLEASURE TO PAY.

During the past three months various colored individuals and groups in the South, at the crack of the white man's whip, have given forth utterances protesting against colored people in the North meddling in "Southern" affairs. These utterances declared that the question of relations between white and black people in the South was one with which nobody else had anything to do; and colored people in the North were requested and warned to attend to "their own business." Perhaps some of the individuals and groups that gave out these utterances do not know that colored people in the North have been "meddling in Southern affairs" for so long a time that they have come to feel that they have acquired a right to do so. The use of this right has always been protested against by the white South, but welcomed and encouraged by the black South. Let us see if the colored people of the North have any good grounds on which to assume such a right. The colored people of the North have been activley "meddling" in the affairs of the South for a hundred years or so. Most people know in a hazy sort of way that the sentiment which finally destroyed slavery in the United States was a result of the Abolition movement, but few people know that some of the most effective Abolition leaders were free colored men and women, and that among the strongest elements in the whole movement were the colored people of the North. It was in 1849 that the legislature of, Ohio was in session at Columbus to consider the repeal of the Black Laws. These laws had originally been enacted to prevent the immigration of colored people into the state. For some time the colored people of Ohio had been agitating for their repeal. They held conventions at the capital, and had perfected an organization through which black men were to "stump" the state in advocacy of their claim to equality before the law with white men. At this juncture, as a kind of red herring across the trail, the colonization scheme was brought before the legislature in the form of a memorial asking aid toward sending Negro emigrants to Liberia. A date was made for the colonization agent to lecture on Colonization in the chamber of the lower house at the capitol; and very respectful notices were sent to the colored churches, inviting the colored people to attend. This invitation was met by the colored people with a call for an indignation meeting. At this meeting the following resolution was adopted: "Resolved. That we shall never leave this country while one of our brethren groans in slavish fetters in the United States, but will remain on this soil and contend for our rights and those of our enslaved race—upon the rostrum—in the pulpit—in the social circle, and upon the field, if necessary, until liberty to the captive shall be proclaimed throughout the length and breadth of this great Republic, or until we are called from time to eternity." In 1850 a proposition to Congress for the appropriation of the last installment of the surplus revenue for colonization was laid before the Ohio legislature. The free colored people again called meetings and denounced the proposition; and the following resolution, among others, was adopted at Columbus: "Resolved, That it is our unalterable and eternal determination, as heretofore expressed, to remain in the United States at all hazards, and to 'buffet the withering flood of prejudice and misrule' which threatens our destruction, until we are exalted to ride on its foaming billows, or honorably sink into its destroying vortex; although inducements may be held out to immigrate in the shape of odious and oppressive laws or liberal appropriations." Some three or four years later, on the occasion of the formation of the Ohio State Colonization Society another meeting was called and the following resolution was adopted by the free colored people at Cincinnati: "Resolved, That in our opinion the emancipation and elevation of our enslaved brethren depend in a measure upon their brethren who are free remaining in this country; and we will remain to be that 'Agitating Element' in American politics which Mr. Wise, in a late letter, declares has done so much for the slave." We have quoted these three resolutions to show something of the extent to which Northern colored people (that includes Southern colored people who were continually making their way up from the South) "meddled" in Southern affairs even before the Civil War. How much their "meddling" had to do with fostering and strengthening the sentiment which caused the overthrow of slavery has never been fully estimated. --- Serville, Tennessee, a white girl, E. unusually disappeared early on a Sunday.

In Interesting Play BY LESTER A. WALTON. The Porter..... Walter Robinson Dr. Niblo..... H. L. Pryor Van Herbert..... O. I. Dow Newbury Vanessa Nippe..... Heard Newbury Jimlie Pitpatrick..... Andrew Hobb De Luse Annie..... Cleo Desmond Louise..... On May Taylor Steve Crown..... On May Taylor Hen Kendall..... Lloyd Monagos Mrs Archer..... Mattie V. Wilkes MrMs. Glimour..... Elizabeth Williams Cyrus Monroe..... Harrington Carter Joe..... Henry Jones The Nurse..... Toni Thornton THE popularity of the company of Lafayette Players headed by Miss Cleo Desmond and Andrew Bishop is being strikingly shown this week at the Lafayette Theatre where this group of Thespians is scoring a big success in "De Luse Annie", a play pleasing, to both young and old. Strokes in which detectives prominently figure are greatly relished by all, and in "De Luse Annie" there are several sluths who usually are outwitted by a woman and her male pal, and what is more, the play ends so that the principals have happily together ever after. This is the first time the Desmond-Bishop Company has been seen in New York since last June, and the patrons of the Lafayette seem as glad to see the company back home as many in the company are delighted to be back on Sixth Avenue. Miss Desmond is impressive as Dr. Luke Annu playing the part with intelligence and artistic skill. She has firmly established herself as one of the stars of the Lafayette Players, which has been accomplished chiefly by close application to the study of dramatic art. There is not a more popular member of the Lafayette Players than Andrew Bishop, and his popularity is not due solely to his engaging personality off the stage. This young man has developed into an actor of recognized ability, and no one can see him in the role of Annu Lafayette without according him this distinction. L. L. Cormer is well cast as Nate Cromin, the detective, and as Ms. Alicia Mattie Wilkes looks as attractive as some years ago when I first met her in St. Louis with my old friend, Ernest Hogan. Others to accord the principal strong support are Walter Robinson, H. L. Pryor, O. Edward Brown, Richard N. Gogg, Oh May Taylor, Lonnie Mongeau, Elizabeth Williams, Barrington Carter, Henry Jones and Brenna Torrison. "The Love Annuity is an attraction deux." Records Broken at Lafayette Sunday All records for Sunday concerts at the Lafayette Theatre were broken Sunday evening and never before has such a throng weeded it way on a Sunday to this popular theatre. Handy and Bryant's Memphis BWNs Band was the principal attraction. W. C. Handy, originator of the blues, rendered a corner solo in which he included "The Memphis Blues." Fredk Bryantwas at the piano, opening the act in lively fashion with "The Dancing Deacon." Juniper Taylor, xylophone artist, and Berni Barbour at the piano, helped to make the musical program entertaining. Philip Giles did the principal comedy work winning rounds of applause with his eccentric dancing, while Andrew Copeland sang "Little Daddy" "with a feeling" Hunter & Rasdall also scored in their comedy work. Play to Deal With Race Suicide "The Good Bad Woman" will be next week's attraction at the Lafayette Theatre, which deals with marriage in its past, present and future and the story is carried to ultimate conclusion by three couples—one engaged to be married, another already married and the third divorced. The rights of posterity in matrimony are illustrated in the married people who have not futilised their duty by hearing children, and the remore of the childless wife when she discovers that everything she has done to remain youthful in order to hold her husband has driven him from her. "The Good Bad Woman" is dramatic propaganda against race suicide and is treated in this play in a frank and open manner. In the east will be Carletta Freeman, Clarence E. Muse, Arthur Simmon, Charles Olden, Inez Clongh, Rosa Lee Tyler and Ophelia Muse. Children under sixteen will not be admitted to the Lafayette Theatre during the presentation of this piece.

Lynchburg, Va.—The football team of Virginia Normal and Industrial Institute of Petersburg came here for a game with Virginia Seminary and College.

Most of the playing was done in their territory and they proved themselves exceptionally strong in defensive play. However, they had to yield to the line smashing of Spratly, Pondexter, Harrison and Jackson. In the last period Captain Melton of the Normals broke through the line and recovered a fumble which had resulted from a bad pass. Jordan of the Seminary played a remarkable game and deserves especial mention. A large number of the Alumni of the Normal school was present at the game.

HOWARD. Institute, W.

With exhibitions of liking by Holland, of Institute, interspersed with successful and unsuccessful forward pass, the proteges of Robinson, of Lambham and Bacon, treated the mighty athlete to samples of football rarely seen and rarely played. The playing of individual player stand out as a feature of the game Hughes, the former West Virginia player, material spoken of the All-American team; Downing, at left half, cogitam of the Howard-eleven; Howell, former Sturge College man, at left end, and Williams, as full back, were the Howard stars Hamlin, Pew, Google, Bardlett and Morgan played well and showed up to great advantage - Google in boring the line for long games; Hamlin at tall, who was called upon time after time to catch the ball, and Morgan at center, who played an excellent game. The knot of Holland was also a feature. It was a well matched team and well played game. No excuse were made.

The Lincoln University football eleven defeated the Hampton institute team on Saturday, November 1, on the Hampton gridiron by a score of 14 to 6. During the first half of the game Lincoln scored two touchdowns, rushing through Hampton's line for long gains. The Lincoln backfield was heavy, showed great speed, and carried good interference. Their line also played a strong defensive game, forcing Hampton to kick many times, being unable to gain her distance. In the second half Hampton stopped Lincoln's rushing and played most of the game in Lincoln's territory. In the third quarter Lincoln was taken off her feet, when Hampton began the forward pass game, making several successful passes. Reference, S. C. Wilkinson; umpire, H. G. Douglas; head linesman, W.

The Howard aggregation with their bays to the wall fought 11-11. Iions at bay while the Fort Union eleven tried vainly to break the deadlock. With an ideal day hovering over the field the referee sounded the whistle which was the signal for Hudles to put his powerful toe into the pigskin. Hudles returned the kick but being unable to push back the visitors, she punched. After three downs the painted, likewise. By a decision of line plunges Howard brought the oval Union's goal line. A short pass over the goal line ended the struggle. Hudles kicked the goal. san Brown "Midge" Williams received the kick off and started up field, eluding several would-be tacklers and carried the ball to midfield. Hucules quickly shot the ball to the waiting McQuinn for 'ten yards and by another pass to Capt. Taylor for another first down. The Unionites went wild when Capt. Taylor was called to fullback and by two successive phuges over right tackle landed Hulches kicked goal. Union scored her touchdown in less than twelve minutes of play. Score. 7 to 7. The second half was full of defensive work by Howard with Union mostly on the offensive. For Union Capt. Taylor was the shining star. He was here, there and everywhere, receiving passes from all parts of the field and snatching the pikkin from among groups would-be receivers. He was greatly feared by the Washingtonians, who were evident when he stepped back on the 45-yard line and attempted a drop kick. The Howardites gave a sighing moan as the pikkin sailed towards the uprights but were relieved when a few inches separated the ball and the goal. The line up: Union Taylor L.E. Howell Watts L.T.

Black and White Soap, as sold in cake form, is about the best cleansing agent that you can use, but some prefer a liquid soap for shampoo. Do this-thinly shave about one-quarter of a cake of Black and White Soap and place in a pint of boiling water. It is ready for use as soon as it cools. If your druggist cannot supply you with Plough's Black and White Hair Dressing and Black and White Soap, send 50c to us and both will be mailed postpaid or, four packages of Black and White Hair Dressing and one bar of Black and White Soap [a $1.25 order] will be sent postpaid on receipt of $1.00. . od wha cee’ 0.
