C.—Henry McCleese, 50 years old, of 304 Spellman street, in a fit of jealousy shot and killed his 24 year old wife, Edith McCleese, last Sunday morning. According to Theodore McCleese, a 16 year old son by a former marriage, his father and step mother were sitting on the front porch when she requested from the elder McCleese some money. He told her that he didn't have any money. She bet him that he had ten dollars, agreeing to make good all he lacked under that sum, provided he would give her all he had above. To this they both agreed. SHE WON BET When Mrs. McClessie searched her her husband's pockets she found ten dollars and caught him in the act of trying to conceal his other dollar. An argument ensued from this incident and the husband threw the money on the floor. Mrs. McClessie refused to take it and went upetails. The man was heard on the upper floor for about five minutes when a shot was fired, said the younger McClessie, and the woman ran down stairs shot in the stomach and grabbed her step. The man followed behind his wife, pushing open the door and firing another load of shot in her side. The woman fell and died with a stream of blood suturing her root. Her deceased foes joked to loot the run and on himself, but making such a poox job at this, he secured his razor and pulled it across his throat.

Efforts made during recent months by Joseph R. Poore, chiefman of the Republican Party in 1900, effected a working understanding between the two factions, were unavailing. The Richmond convention reaffirmed allegiance to the National Republican party and its platform as a conservative party. Repudiated the action of the "Lily Whites" at Norfolk and Rosanoke.

NORFOLK, VIRGINIA, SATURDAY, OCTOBER 7, 1922 REVIVALS ADD TO MEMBERSHIP IN CITY CHURCHES Ministers Of Outstanding Ability Conducting Campaigns in Local Churches; Good Results Obtained By Their Work. The churches in and about Norfolk are augmenting their membership in large numbers through a campaign of With the passing of hot weather and the advent of fall, it is the cus- tion of many people to special drives to bring in people with no church connections. It is true that at every service in the year the church are open or new members, but these annual events are usually autumn events. It is estimated that before winter sets in the church membership of the city will have been increased by nearly a thousand persons. ABLH PREACHERS One of the special features of these campaigns in the city this year has been the able ministers secured in alding in conducting them. Each minister had the service of an outstanding minister, a recognized fact among the pastors that regardless of how popular they are with their congregations, they are not as effective in drawing large crowds at revival meetings at their church, and for that reason but of town ministers are secured for these meetings. Second Calvary Baptist church has been in the progress of its revival for several years, and the persons have evidenced a change of heart by going to the front and acknowledging Christ. Rev. W. W. Brown, pastor of Metropolitan Baptist church, of New York, was at this church the first week and his strenuous preaching drew large crowds each night. EFFECTIVE REVIVALIST Dr. Brown is renowned as an able revitalist and an able preacher. He is a man of superior education, but much more successful in succeeding in stirring his audience to much penitence. He chose a special text for each sermon and delivered his subjects with great simplicity and charisma, and he remained at *Second Calvary* for ten days, after which, with Mrs. Brown he returned to New-York. Dr. Scott, or Philadelphia, took charge of the preaching part of the parture of Rev. Brown. The services have not lagged at all on account of the lack of effectiveness of the preaching. Dr. Scott is also an outstanding preacher, and he have kept the church full each night. Street meetings are held nightly before entering into services inside of the church building. Songs and prayers are sung in the church march through the streets. At noon hour, as many of the workers as can find it possible to do so, go with the pastor to the industrial plants and the special service for the plant laborers. JERUSALEM BAPTIST Jerusalem Baptist church's revival has been in progress for more than a week. Rev. Boddy, of New York filled the pulpit for Rev. Hobbs at this church, and preached "strong sermons and was very effective as a revivalist. The conversions at this church have been credible. Dr. Thurston, of Elizabethtown, Ohio, preached ruselessism since the discovery of Rev. Boddy. Rev. Thurston is quite well known in Virginia and North Carolina, and is a preacher of the first rank. Good congregations have attended night to hear the distinguished divine. QUEEN STREET BAPTIST Queen Street Baptist, is not in a revival, but a series of sermons are being delivered there by Rev. C. P. Dixon, (Black Billy Sunday) and the church doors are opened for the receiving of new members at each service. The response has been gratify. The church has been known evangelist and he usually leaves the churches where he appears better off in membership. Bank Street Baptist church will enter into a revival during the latter part of the present month and will conduct it jointly with Queen Street Church. The church is scheduled to run for a month, alternating two weeks at each church, with Dr. S. S. Jones doing the preaching throughout the whole month. The mode of conducting this campaign is the city of Norfolk and the combined effort of the churches are expected to be productive of great good. PORTSMOUTH CHURCHES The revival spirit has not been confined to Norfolk, however, as many of the Nortmouth churches have held revivals and parishioners templating doing so in the near future. Old Emanuel A. M. E. church at St. Mary's will be the next morning service with a special sermon by Dr. Berry. Revivals at Emanuel are events of much importance to the parishioners, and paritions have been made through home-worship with the members it is believed that the revival will be Better Homes Week October 9th-14th "Better Homes" week will be celebrated in this city from October 9th to 14th. The colored citizens of Norfolk, although maintaining that spirit throughout the year, will stimulate their efforts for better homes during this week. The Governor of the State has issued a proclamation calling upon the citizens of the State of Virginia to especially observe the week. GOVERNOR'S PROCLAMATION The proclamation of Governor Trinkle, designating "better homes week" follows: BETTER HOMES DEMONSTRATION WEEK (October 9-14, 1922) Whereas the saying has become axiion of domestic, civic and national strength in all lands, and the aspirations of a people may be best measured by its family life; and, the aspirations of a home axiion that in the sanctity of the homes the safety of the State; and, Whereas there is a movement now on foot among certain public spirited citizens to fit up model homes in certain cities for the inspection of the public; and, Whereas I am informed there are approximately 20,000,000 home makers in the numerous states of wakel Virginia, and believing it to be to the interest of our people that Virginia lead in one building as in other enterprise, now the Governor, E. Lee Trinkle, Governor of Virginia, set aside the week of October 9-14, 1922, as Better Homes Demonstration Week, and do earnestly call upon the people of Virginia to give their hand and under the lesser seal of the Commonwealth at Richmond this second day of September, in the year of our Lord, one thousand nine hundred and forty-seventh year of the Commonwealth. E. Lee TRINKLE, Governor of Virginia. By the Governor of Virginia. B. O. JAMES. Secretary of the Commonwealth FOR OWNING OWN HOMES The purposes of the week are many. Among them may be mentioned: The creation of desire among the people to own their own homes and buildings and presentation of information showing them how they may own their homes. Demonstrating the ease with which better, home furnishings may be acquired, that the homes may be made in a manner suitable for the sensences and other facilities for the promotion of pleasure and satisfaction leading to happiness. In the home owning phase of the week, building and loan associations, real estate firms, builders and contractors, among others, give definite aid and who stand ready to do so. How Miss Cargill Was Discovered Washington, D. C.—Miss Lula Cargill, the champion mail sorter of the United States is clerk at the Varkish Street Branch of the New York city post office. Discovery of this colored girl's ransom made as a result of a claim made by officials of the Detroit post office that a young girl-sorter there had distributed an average of 43 letters a minute.

She sorted 2,580 letters averaging 60½ minute and in the second test she sorted 6,715 averaging 74 3-5 letters a minute. Her average over the eight hours was 63 letters a minute in comparison with 43 letters a minute by the Detroit sorter. Miss Cargill girl has been in the postal service since the year, 1919. She is 26 years old. Indictment Returned Against Lynchers McIntosh, Ga.—One of the most unusual occurrences in the history of Southeastern Georgia occurred last week when an indictment was found against alleged members of a mob of lynchers charged with the murder of two lynchers. On the night of June 30th, James Harvey and Joe Jordan were lynched near old ridway, in Liberty County. They were being carried from Jasup into Wayne County for safekeeping, having been previously convicted on a charge of assault and unlawful removal from the governor, when they were taken by the office and hanged. Much indignation was manifested by people of the county over this incident and they at once set about to uncover the lynchers: The result is the 'indictments' returned against five citizens of the county, two of whom are men of affairs or office. All of the officers are persons are white and their rounding up is in keeping with the determination of the better element of citizens who are insisting on law enforcement. W. L. EPPS DIES SUDDENLY IN THE PRIME OF LIFE A Life Long Citizen Of Norfolk And A Well Known Business And Fraternity Man; End Came Unexpectedly. William L. Epps, a well known realtor and business man, with offices in the Hoggard Building, died at his residence in Lewis street last Saturday. Mr. Epps had been a long sufferer from a complication of acute indigestion and heart disease but it was only about two months ago that the attacks of the malaria began to infiltrate with the blood of his wife. And only twice during this time had they been serious enough to cause him to remain away from his office an entire day. He was two weeks before his death he informed Mrs. Epps that he would not long survive the recurrent attacks of acute indigestion, as each one was growing in intensity and though they did not remain with him long at a time when they did occur during a living was more than he could withstand. DIED SATURDAY MORNING On Saturday morning at 1 o'clock acute indigestion again seized him, causing strangulation of an already injured man and although Dr. Tillson was hurriedly examined, within half hour after being seized, he was dead. Mrs. Epps states that Mr. Epps seemed entirely conscious of his apprehension and although before his death, as about that time he requested her to go to the cemetery and see if his lot was in good condition. She states that he was always in the best of spirits during his illness, and for that reason the family took his remarks about his approaching end lightly. William L. Epps is survived by his widow, Mrs. M. Epps, South-Eastlips, Mrs. M. Kelley of Baltimore, Mrs. Annie Jones, of Baltimore; Mrs Luce Shorts, of Newark, N. J.; two brothers, Mr. Allen Epps, of Norfolk; (Continued on Pago Five.) "EQUAL PROTECTION" PLANK FOR DEMOCRATS New York State Body Adopts Plank Opposing Lynching As Party Measure. Syracuse, N. Y., Sept.—Delivering a death blow to the political ambitions of William Randolph Hearst by denying him a place on the ticket and in the party, the Democratic State Convention adjourned late Friday night, after adopting a party platform and nominating a ticket headed by Alfred E. Smith, town New York, for governor; E. Lincoln, town S.C., for governor; for United States Senator; Charles F. Murphy, Tammany Hall chief, was the absolute boss of the convention. FOR EQUAL PROTECTION The Democratic State Convention went on record as favoring equal protection for every citizen. This plank in the platform is as follows: Every citizen, regardless of race, college, or profession, is entitled to the equal protection of the laws mob violence can never be justified.

Y., Sept.—With manifest enthusiasm the Republican State convention Thursday renominated Governor Nathan L. Miller, of Syracuse, for a second term and William M. Calder, of Brooklyn, for the United States Senate. The rest of the State ticket was made of men in harmonic views.

Louis Butts, colored, was sentenced to five years in the penitentiary in the circuit court of Norfolk county for forcing his employer to pay him five dollars in wages at the point of a gun. When he was arrested on a warrant charging highway robbery and sentenced by the lower court, it was on appeal from this sentence that the decision was rendered and a new trial ordered. He was sentenced for a Norfolk county guano plant and was discharged by the "walking boss," who refused to pay him five dollars in wages due. Butts went to the superintendent and requested his wages, so he came back on Saturday, whereupon he was forced the superintendent to pay him immediately. INSURANCE MAN VISITS THE CITY Mr. John R.

Brown, director of agencies Norfolk division, Standard Life Company, Mr. Pinkett called to pay his respects at the Guida office. COLORED VOTERS CAUSE ANXIETY IN OHIO ELECTION Dr. Fess, Administration Semen- torial Candidate, Not The Choice Of. Race Republicans; Prefer Senator Pomerene. Columbus, Ohio.—The colored vote in Ohio is the disturbing element in the Old Guard camp. The administration candidate for Ohio is Jimenson, is not popular with New Yorkers, or the state. Many of the colored voters would prefer to cast their ballots for Senator Pomerene, a Democrat, than to vote for Governor. In Ohio elections the race vote is the deciding factor and the party that captures it is a sure winner. Young Republicans are organizing the State and urging the voters to break away from party lines. Professor Scarborough, of the Department of Agriculture, may be sent in the state in an effort to bring the colored electorate in line. The Administration's policy towards the race in making federal appointments, is a contributing cause for discontentment. Students in Public Schools is also taking on a political aspect in Ohio. Ohio is the political battleground of the Nation and the outcome of the November elections in the Buckeye State (March 1992 campaign; if for Dr. Simeon D. Feeney, Senator Atlee Pomerene for United States Senator, it can only be conceived as an unqualified endorsement of the nominee, and the other hand, if Senator Pomerene should be successful, he will become a potential candidate for the Democrat nomination for President. And in the Buckeye State, he defeated Democratic candidate for 1920, who is now a strong advocate of the League of Nations. He would reverse to accepting a second nomination to the hands of the Democratic party. In 1920, Ohio gave to Warren G. Harding a majority of 400,000; and to Harry L. Davis, Republican canceller for governor, a majority of 120,000. The two parties are waging intensive campaign efforts in strategically the Republicans are better situated. The primary results are regarded as an absolute endorsement of the President, a native son, and psychological effect will materially influence the outcome. PREFER POMERENE To Fess. Yet there is nothing cocksure about the defeat of Senator Pomerene. Progressive and liberal in his views, he has made a fine, record in the United States Senate. Dr. Slimson D. Fess is an enthusiastic supporter of the national administration and it was no secret in the primary fight that he was the personal choice of the President. Nevertheless, the Negro electorate, the balance of power in Ohio's politics, prefers Senator Pomerene, a Democrat, to Dr. Fess, a Republican. NEGRO VQTERS DISCONTENTED A spirit of 'discontent and dissatisfaction' pervides the ranks of Negro Republicans. For instance, while able to light a night was unacceptable to them in the past, Republican governmental nomination Carmi Thompson is not assured of their support at the polls in November. A nucleus of an independent colored voters started sometime ago by clear thinking and independent colored men and women is growing in influence and the indications are that it is going to cause trouble in the Reconstruction era by using against voting the party ticket. Efforts are being made to counteract these tendencies. Press dispatches state that Professor W. S. Scarborough, whose Federal job with the University of Kentucky, is regarded as a sinicure, will be sent into the State to tell the colored electorate how to vote. If he comes, he will have considerable explaining to do, for the Negro voters in the State are not for the General Assembly were knifed in the last election and why Charlie Cottrill, of Toledo, was turned down for the office of Register of the Treasury. And incidentally, Ohio Negroes were not appointed to a tough appointment is not a sufficient reward for their party loyalty. It is rumored that Attorney, General Daugherty is seriously considering the appointment of A. Lee Bosty, a former State senator, as an Assistant State Senator at Cincinnati. This appointment, if made at the proper moment, will help some, but will not entirely satisfy colored Republicans. Mrs. Lethia G. Fleming, of Cleveland, charged of the campaign among colored women in 1920, has been named on the State executive committee. She is prominent in club work and will do much toward corralling the Republican vote for the lean party. News and Advertisements of City of Portsmouth and Vicinity Mr. Joseph A.

Now the chefs want to be recognized as artists. An absurd demand artists never have anything to cook. If the United States had joined the League of Nations we should now be mixed up in the disagreeable war troubles brewing in Asia Minor. The government has wisely decided that our prohibition navy must not go beyond the traditional three mile limit in running, down, liquor smugglers. It looked for a time as if our prohibition navy was to be allowed to be as piratical as the smuggling liquor pirates and to get us into war with Great Britain by their zeal. By the merger of the Great Southern Fire Insurance Company of Atlanta and the Bankers' Fire Insurance Company of Durham, we now have one very strong fire insurance company. The recent disastrous fire in the Berkley district should warn our householders of the probable danger of loss by fire if they neglect to insure their buildings and household goods. The sudden death of Senator Thomas E. Watson of Georgia, removes from public life one of the most useless and troublesome characters since the going away of Senator Benjamin Ryan Tillman of South Carolina. Senator Watson was a political Inhalm. He had no love for the Negro people and they had no love for him The city manager has issued regulations requiring jitneys to stop in the middle of the block for passengers. As the jitneys must slow down at street crossings and stop in the middle of blocks when are they going to do their speeding? The rule is a good one for the protection of the lowly pedestrians. STATES TO DEAL WITH MOB VIOLENCE We have received a letter from the Southern, Co-Operative League in which we are informed that the executive committee of the League of Southern Governors "have appointed a very strong commission of lawyers and business men to draft a model bill for the prevention of lynching; to secure its passage in each Southern legislature and to create a public conscience for law and order. The letter further says: "We are determined to remove the onus of mob violence which now hangs over the South so heavily and which so utterly discredits our Nation in the eyes of the whole world. The work of this commission, in the process of having a bill passed by each legislature, will have an educational value scarcely less important than the law itself, for the education of public opinion must precede the effective enforcement of any law." The criminal laws now on the statute books of the States are sufficient to cover entirely any mob violence which may occur, or to prevent any that threatens to occur. It is not a question of sufficient law, but of sufficient public respect for law and the scrupulous performance of sworn duty of law officials to enforce law and respect for law. Much of the opposition to the Federal Anti-Lynching legislation has been because of the conviction that mob violence is a matter for the State and not the Federal Government to deal with. It is because of that conviction that Congress has failed to pass the Dyer Anti-Lynching bill and deferred consideration of it to the next session of Congress. The appointment of a commission by the Governors of Southern States to draft a proper law, and to submit it to the several State legislatures is one of the most beneficial services the Southern Co-Operative League has rendered, and that is, saying a great deal, as it is one of the most useful organizations in the country. If it can create the necessary public sentiment to bring about the adoption by the Southern legislatures of necessary legislation to stamp out mob violence, it will be a blessing to the South it is not possible to estimate. It is the business of the States to enact and enforce such legislation, but they will hardly do it unless the proper public sentiment can be created and go actively behind the movement. We believe, with Secretary of E. McCulloch of the League, that this can be done, and shall do FRENCH SPORTSMANSHIP "Battling Skii" has uncrowned Georges Carpentier, the French pugilistic idol. Skii, the Senegalese, is an Afro-Frenchman. Since Carpentier has been disposed Skii has become the presiding lord of all "godesses" in the boulevards at Paris. No wonder about it. What attraction a strong man has for the fair sex, well! And he the heavyweight champion of Europe and the middle-weight champion of the world at that! An American correspondent calls the French ladies color-blind because they swarmed to Montmartre, the Negro section of Paris, to congratulate and to admire the victorious pugilist. Skii, for a moment at least, has raised all the Negroes residing in Paris to a level where they are favored by the Parisian belles and acclaimed by the French people generally. All credit to the unbiased temperament of the French, who have showered honors upon the Negro victor. Ski, the Senegalese, has become the most important man in Paris. Some want his picture in order to advertise their medicines; a dramatic concern wants him to star in Rene Maran's "Batoulà"; a famous dancer wants him to dance with her and offers him 1,000 francs to do so. But Ski's manager has turned a deaf ear to all these offers. The modern world has gone mad after physical prowess. The successful athlete is now a greater personage than when he ruled the ancient world in the Olympian games. Is it a sign of moral decadence? Successful pugilists demand a king's ransom to appear in the squared arena, and get it, while intellectual people slave a year for $1,200. Siki only weighs 174 pounds and is therefore, in the light heavyweight class. He will do well not to stake his reputation against heavyweight like Harry Wills or Jack Dempsey. And he should not allow "wine, woman and song" to demoralize him, as they did Jack Johnson and other big fighters, leading ultimately to their utter undoing. It is encouraging, however, to know that Siki is not a drinker in the sense that is the custom in Europe. THE FREEDOM OF THE DARDENELLES The Allies insist upon the Dardenelles being kept free at all costs. What do they mean by the freedom of the Dardenelles? The Dardenelles either under Turkey, or jointly under Turkey, Bulgaria, Russia and other Balkan States, as they ought to be under the latter, will be as free as any other highway on the seas. On the other hand, if the Dardenelles go under the control of the Allies, it means that they will go under British control unreserved. The British have bulldozed the French in Egypt in the past and bluffed all their colleagues in the recent war. In view of these facts it is reasonable to presume that Great Britain would turn the Dardenelles into another Gibraltar, provided she should be successful in her present imperialistic schemes. But the chances are that she will not be successful in her schemes. The Balkan Powers have as much right to control the Straits in their interests as the British have to control the British Channel or the Thames river. The Straits cannot be any more international than the Channel or the Thames. All the water high ways ought to be and are international, and as such the Balkan Powers will have to throw the Straits open for all to use, and they have consented to do so. But if the Straits slip under the control of the British no one can guarantee that the Straits will remain free, and we shall still hear the strains, "Britannica Rules The Waves," "The Mistress of the Seas,' and all that sort of stuff. It is proposed by Mr. Lloyd George that the League should take control of the Straits. But Russia is a stumbling block in the way of the League, whose decisions cannot bind the Russians, nor even the Turks and Bulgarians. If the Allies do not drop their imperialistic scheming in the Near East, if they are not willing to come to a decent and honorable understanding with the Balkan States, they are going to create an awful lot of mess which may smother them one day. The European Powers have no right whatever to control the Asiatic waters, just as the Americans have no right to control the Baltic Sea or the English Channel. Plain common sense teaches that much, but statemen are beyond the reach of common sense, when territorial greed and economic exploitation dominate their policies. Those policies brought on the World War and they now threaten to bring on a Europo-Asiatic War—a war of races and religious creeds. Revivals Added To Membership In City Church (Continued on Page Five.) unusually effective. Dr. Berry, himself, is a preacher of ability and his announcement of special sermons allows receive a response in a packed house. Mrs. Nora F. Taylor will assist Dr. Berry in the revival. She is an evangelist of a wide reputation and has appeared in several of the leading churches in the state. In Brighton, Rev. I. S. Arnold has launched a ten-day drive at the First Baptist church. Rev. R. C. Lamb, of Elizabeth City, will conduct the meetings for Rev. Arnold. Both of these ministers are well known. NORPOLK JOURNAL AND GUIDE Briefs and Spices There is this to be said about those foreign wars: They always break out in territories with unpronounce-bale names. Altho race schools the country over opened with crowded class room, it is well to remember that crowded class rooms don't produce crowds of class. In addition to increasing taxes with a high tariff and giving race legislation the "Hai Ha!" Congress adjourned. The fall style arbiters say long skirts. These umpires are always taking the joy out of life. What next? If coal prices continue to go up, the old adage, "What goes up must come down," will mean a knockout wallop—for the consumer. It is pointed out that what this country needs is more paint on the old place and less on the young face; more tractors and less detractors. Point sustained. Quite a bit of publicity is being given smart children's behavior nowadays. Fulfilling the prophesy of little children leading us as 'twere. After seeing Battling Siki rise to fame over night, American fight promoters evidently want to see him fall equally as quick. They are trying to match him to fight Wills. Straw voters like bill collectors always show up in the wrong way. Wood alcohol caused 22 cases of blindness in six months. We guess the victims have the courage of their convictions. Life they say is "a vale of tears." It's full of pain and want and woe. We'll all admit that this apears, And is not absolutely so. When sorrow comes and bitter grief, There's hope. Try figuring out your income tax; That brings a deep and sure relief; Thank you. Did it act? scissored NEGROES OUGHT TO PRACTICE WHAT THEY PREACH The stock argument of the average Negro man in business is that you ought to support me and my concern because of the race, and you cannot hold on to an inducement to you services for your business; but that you ought not to put your money in a white man's bank or trade with a black man; because you ought to trade with me, it matters not whether I give you service or not, you ought to trade with me, just because I am black, and ought to trade with a black man because he is white. Merit never enters into the mind of the colored man. His color is his greatest stock in trade; it answers for market in trade; it service and value received for dollars. But this same character, when he comes to spending his money, placing advertisements, putting his money in the bank or doing anything else, he poses his funds in the white bank, buys his goods at the white store, has his wife to trade with the merchant who will not permit her to try a pair of jeans on her hands. He buys his groceries at the most exclusive place; he wants to get his medicine from up town in a drug store that does not cater to Negroes. He wants a white doctor to treat his battle cry is, "Trade with me, because I am a Negro." When it comes to advertising in a Negro paper, if he is a Negro merchant, banker or what not, he pays five hundred for five hundred white men in his bank and refuses to give a Negro twenty-five for a page in his paper. Yet he does not sell the white man a dollar's worth of goods or redeem white men in his bank, and if you get after this Negro and ask him why he advertises his goods with white people who will not buy them, he tells you he wants the white people to advertise in the white papers for the purpose of getting business. He does not expect the white man to put his money in his bank, buy his goods or to help him otherwise. He does it for the sake of a desire to look bigger and larger in the white man's estimation than any other Negro in the community where he lives. He delights to say "if some Negro man said to him "if some Negro man said to you, we would have a better community." There is a lot of big advertising being done by Negro concerns in this community, all in the white papers. Recently one of our schools paid quite $1,000.00 in white papers, which did not bring them a dollar, when they bought them. in the Negro press of the state and gotten wise. The white man is a wise being, sensible and judicious in judgment, as well as in his tastes. He cares but little for the fellow who has more respect for him than he has to committency whom he knows will not serve him, instead of one that he has every reason to believe will serve him. It is reasonable for a white man to advertise in Negro publications for respect enough to believe that there are some self-respecting Negroes whom he cannot reach otherwise. And every Negro who advertises through white papers for white customers and others, if he has any sense at all, that it is money thrown a way—pearsls thrown to swine. The white man is not going to trade with him. His pride, self-respect and racial conscience will not patronize Negro doctors, lawyers, teachers or what not to the exclusion of his own race. He believes the best way to provide for his children as they leave school is to build up employ nobody but white children Negro business men never think of service beyond the date they live. They think it is a big thing to let the white people know what he is doing for the Negro boys and girls as they leave school. Nothing is going to bring the Negro business man to his senses but a fight on and an exposure of his hypocrisy. The Negro business man is ground that he is a Negro and giving all his business to white people to make them believe he is as bigger than the Negro in the community where he lives.
