BIG CROWD GREETS GENERAL DAWES Establish To Secure Equality to Miss Historical Society East Paul Minnesota VOLUME III, NO. 26 LABOR MEN BECOME BIT UNEASY OVER COMMUNISTS GAIN Minnesota labor men are becoming a bit uneasy over the Communists who are gaining a firm hold on the Farmer-Labor party in this state. The so-called Progressive Farmer-Laborites are beginning to express alarm over the situation which they find staring them in the face. In the October 3 issue of The Minnesota, a Minneapolis labor paper, these "progressives" deplore the fact that there are three Communist sympathizers on the state central committee and Communist candidates for Governor and leutenant governor on the party ticket. This close affinity with the Communists and the Industrial Workers of the World, is due the article says, to wreck the Farmer-Labor party. "Those who have spent their time and money to build the party," it states, "are looking toward the future with misgivings." Another bone of contention with the "progressives" is the fact that the Worker's party in Wisconsin where they have filed a full state ticket, has unreservedly indorsed the Farmer-Labor ticket in Minnesota. This indorsement coupled with the filing in Minnesota of William Z. Foster and Benjamin Gitlow, avowed I. W. W. men, on the Farmer-Labor ticket is causing considerable uneasiness among the candidates who have been perched precariously on the fence between Communism and the ordinary garden variety of Socialism. In an open letter to the Farmer-Labor Advocate, C. A. Hathaway, district organizer for the I. W. W., said: "Mr. Foster and Mr. Gitlow are being filed by petition on the Worker's party ticket in Minnesota. We are not filing any candidates for state office but we will continue our active support of the Farmer-Labor movement and the Farmer-Labor candidates." Communist members of the Farmer-Labor state central committee are William Mahoney of St. Paul, the pilot of the Communist convention in that city last summer; Jack Braden of Minneapolis, a firm supporter of the I. W. W., and Alderman I. G. Scott of the Minneapolis city council; he was appointed by Floyd Olson, Farmer-Labor candidate for governor. A. B. Gilbert, an avowed Communist himself, was first appointed instead of Braden and refused to serve on the same committee with "such reds as Mahoney and Scott." Making a statement of the menace of Communism in the Farmer-Labor party, the article in the Minnesota said: "The borers-from-within have also secured executive positions in the various units which are supporting the ticket, and an instance of this is pointed out in that an avowed Communist, Richard Wangerin, is the secretary of the Ramsey county division of the Farmer-Labor party. "This condition, the progressives feel, is the reason why the Communist organization, which takes its orders direct from Moscow, is not filing a state ticket in Minnesota, and it is creating uneasiness in many quarters, particularly since Floyd Olson has never renounced Communism, and since his principal aides in Hennepin County appear to be I. G. Scott, his appointee to the state committee, and Dick Wiggin, member of the city legal staff and a guiding figure in Communistic activities In the Minneapolis City Council and the City and County Employees' Union. "Communists continually bore from within and never support any organization which they do not know is friendly to their cause. Those who are beginning to express alarm at the situation point out that there are many candidates on the Farmer-Labor ticket who are bitterly opposed to Communism, and their appointees to the state committee are above reproach, but it is felt that the Commies are willing to support the whole ticket in order to get the whole Minneapolis City Hall bunch moved over to the State Capitol." BULLETIN-APPEAL Sent as Delegate to The Grand Lodge PETER H. BURGESS R. D. Wiley, W. M., Prince Hall Lodge No. 3, F. A. A. Y. M., of Minnesota and Jurisdiction, was the delegate to the National Grand Lodge which convened in Kansas City, Kan., this week. Mr. Wiley has been a resident of St. Paul for the past ten years and is a worthy representative. He was accompanied by his wife, Mrs. Stella Wiley, D. G. D., of Queen of Sheba Court, who was also a delegate. Mr. and Mrs. Wiley will visit St. Joseph, Mo., en route home. Other delegates from Queen of Sheba Court were, Mrs. Willa Taylor, A. A. M., and Mrs. S. Smith, Treasurer. PEPPER PUTS PEP IN LOCAL SITUATION Sen. George Wharton Pepper, whose thrilling address at the People's Church on Wednesday night made hosts of friends for the Republican party, proved to be the most magnetic speaker of the Republican camp in St. Paul. The meeting under the State and County Committee was presided over by Fred Snyder, who presented Mayor Nelson, who in turn introduced Senator Pepper, paying a high tribute to his statesmanship. The "Daily News" in its editorial "Scholarly" says of his visit: While The Daily News cannot truthfully indorse much of what was said by Sen. George Wharton Pepper of Pennsylvania in his St. Paul address last night, we cannot refrain from expressing words of praise for the scholarly, masterful speech he delivered. It was refreshing to hear a man of his attainments talk, after listening to the bulk of candidates and campaigners ranting on the hustings in Minnesota. Sen. Pepper is setting a new style of political oratory for the country. It would be a blessing if all stump shouters would strive to imitate his style and method. CHURCH CELEBRATES PASTOR'S ANNIVERSARY Last Sunday evening marked the second anniversary of the advent into the ministry of Rev. E. L. Fuller which was celebrated with a fitting program by the members of St. Anthony Baptist Church, of which he is pastor. This group is working faithfully. The church was organized July 7, 1924, with seven members and has since grown to twenty-three. They have purchased a piece of property at 1201 Emerson Ave. N., where they will build their church home. The deed of this property was presented to the church and congregation on Sunday night during the anniversary service. Pastor Fuller is doing a great work on the north side for God and his Kingdom, and is being ably supported by a band of Christian workers. The congregation will be in its church home by Thanksgiving, marking the same by a week of festivities. Mrs. Mary L. Fuller, the devoted wife of the pastor, is ever on hand to help and cheer both pastor and members. May God bless St. Anthony Baptist Church and her members. Mrs. Alice Franklin, 486 St. Anthony Ave., arrived home from New York City where she was the guest of Rev. and Mrs. J. R. White. The West Side Mothers' Club met at the Neighborhood House.

W. C. A., Central Ave. Branch, and Rev. Ernest E. King, pastor of Camphor M. E. Church, were united in marriage by the Justice of the Peace. They returned to St. Paul, each assuming their respective positions, not even informing their relatives or friends of their marriage. For over a month the secret was safe; finally, however, the news leaked out and they announced their marriage. To say that it was a complete surprise would be putting it mildly as no one ever suspected or had an inkling that their marriage had taken place. Both have only resided in the city a short time [Image of a man with dark hair and glasses, wearing a suit and tie.] but they endeared themselves in the hearts of all. The entire community Sterling Club Entertains With Unique Harvest Festival at Saint Paul Park Armory on Monday Ever since the Sterling Club issued invitations to their Harvest Festival, society awaited with breathless interest the coming of this event. Premier in social affairs, this club surpassed all former events on Monday evening, October 6, at the Armory in St. Paul Park. The invitations were very unique, printed on brown paper "Cy Corntossel," the club's official entertainer urged the recipients to make their appearance at The Town Hall where Hayracking, Corn-Husking and Dancing would furnish a Hot Time in the Old Town that Night. Beginning with the twilight all the folks for miles around gathered to celebrate in the barn of Farmer Silas. Country lassies in gingham gowns and sun-bonnets, village school teachers, Farmerettes in knickerbockers, Buxom ladies in the latest creations from Connersville arrived with country rubes in jeans and overalls. The village constubule with his shiny star could not make an arrest because he violated all the regulations himself. The country tramp all tattered and torn, "Parson Jones" in linen duster and Stove-pipe hat, Love-lorn swains and village cut-ups joined in the fun and revelry. Huge bunches of corn-stacks, mellow pumpkins, golden corn, russet leaves and new mown hay filled the For every 100 yearly cash Subscriptions $50.00 Rev. E. E. King Guests Arrive.

A little over a year ago Miss Amy Hall arrived in the city from Kansas City, Kan., where she was formerly secretary of the Yates branch to take charge of the Central Ave. branch, this city. Possessed with a keen knowledge and rare executive ability coupled with a pleasing personality, she made a marked improvement and put the "Y" on a systematic basis. Outlining programs, organizing classes, meeting committees, speaking before different groups, besides her regular routine of work is only a small item of a huge undertaking, which Mrs. King has accomplished with remarkable results.

A hay-stack improvised as a cozy corner was a popular retreat for those who wanted to rest their weary joints. Farmer Clarence Johnson and his Syncopating Five played as ne'er before while the sets were called for an old-fashioned quadrille. Ladies to the center and gents all around grabbed their partners for the grand right and left then, promenaded over to the supper table. The harvest hands shook their cowbells and called the company to a sumptuous spread. Crops must have been plentiful judging from the abundance of goodies on the table. Hot frankfurters and home-made rolls, steaming coffee, old-fashioned gingerbread, apple cider, doughnuts, apples and lolly-pops were served until every one swore their sides would burst. By Gosh! every one sure at a plenty. At recess the versatile entertainer, Miss Ozzie Schoffner, from the town across the river, tickled the ivory keys and sang some wicked blues full of mournful melody while the green country boys gazed on in astonishment and clapped for a few more songs.

CANDIDATE TO USE POWER IN REDUCING TAXES IF ELECTED Theodore Christianson, Republican candidate for governor, if elected, says he will do all in his power to reduce the taxes in the state of Minnesota. He advocates the establishment of a state budget system along the same lines as the one which saved the United States Government and the citizens who comprise it, over 2 billion dollars in the past year. For four sessions of the legislature, of which Mr. Christianson has been a member since 1915, he has been chairman of the appropriations committee, the body which guides the expenditures of the state. During this period he has been such a staunch advocate of tax reduction that he has earned the title of "the watch dog of the treasury." Last year the appropriations asked for by the legislature amounted to 55 million dollars. Mr. Christianson cut that figure to 40 million. In his keynote speech, Mr. Christianson stated his plan of tax reduction if he is elected. "Let us make the government simpler," he said, "and not more complex. Let us consolidate the functions of the ninety-two separate boards, bureaus and departments which now constitute the government of Minnesota into fewer departments, with fixed responsibility and increased efficiency; eliminate from the public pay roll every superfluous public official and employee, standardize service and salaries in public employment on the same basis of efficiency and economy that is required in private business." Contrast this with the statement which Floyd Olson, Farmer-Labor candidate for governor, made recently in Long Prairie. He said that the Minneapolis city council was typical of the administration which the people could expect from Farmer-Labor leaders and he said that if elected governor it would be his ambition to give Minnesota the same kind of an administration that this council is giving to his home city of Minneapolis. In the past six years the taxes of Minneapolis have more than doubled. The council is controlled by a majority of seven labor councilmen, two of whom are Communists. If Mr. Olson moves the Minneapolis city hall bunch to the capitol, will he also move with them a one hundred per cent increase of taxes for the state? into their wagons and carts singing praises all along the road for they sure had one heck of a time at the Harvest Party in Farmer Silas' barn. As we turn back the pages of yesterday we review with pleasure the Sterling Club's first entertainment; a "Dinner Dance" with its cabaret setting and Eastern entertainers; next a "Night in Bohemia," truly artistic as to decorative features, again on the 29th of February none can forget the Character and Fancy Dress Party when all the guests attired in carnival costume out-rivaled the "Mardi Gras." To these we add the Harvest Inn Festival, last but not least the best of all. Washington, D. C.—Hon. H. V. Speelman, Register of the U. S. Treasury at Washington, D. C., has just created a new Unit among the working force of his office whose entire personnel is composed of colored Americans, including one Supervisor and eleven clerks, who have been assigned to do high-grade work in what is known as the Interest Coupon Audit Section. This is the first time in the history of the Register's office that colored clerks have been assigned to the responsible task of auditing the interest paid on bonds, Treasury certificates and other government securities, although Register Speelman has for some time had another colored unit in his office engaged in arranging interest coupons.

STATEMENT FALSE The article appearing in the Pioneer Press on Tuesday, stating that property purchased in a certain district by one of our citizens had been abandoned by the purchaser and a satisfactory settlement made, is without foundation and not in accordance with facts. There is no change in the matter of ownership, and none is contemplated. The home will be occupied by the purchase owner. Watch for the Big Bazaar and Carnival to be given by Ames Lodge No. 106, I.

Davis, Democratic nominee for the Presidency, on the ground that he is unfriendly to their race and that his election would place in jeopardy their right of franchise. They were preparing to launch a nation-wide campaign in opposition to his candidacy. Negro speakers will be sent from West Virginia into other states to tell of the activities of the legislation inimical to their interests.

He defended the Constitution and condemned in no uncertain terms the provision in the platform of Sen. La Follette, independent candidate for president, to give congress the power to overrule decisions of the supreme court. Gen. Dawes came to St. Paul from Duluth, where he spoke last night.

At no time in history has there been a greater need for unity within the Race.

No scheme of preservation has ever been more needed than at the present day. Bivouacked from from all angles with prejudice, isolated in every respect by unfair legal manipulation, the American Negro stands in a position more peculiar than he has ever known. The inalienable rights of Life, Liberty and Pursuit of Happiness grow obsolescent with the modern interpretation of the Constitution. Law is toothless and justice is mockery. The democracy for which men fought and died in the recent war becomes a dowry for Nordic lineage. The promise of fairness to all without discrimination is forgotten. Prejudice runs amuck and every conceivable method to lessen the Negro's right to citizenship is adopted. To what extent will this sort of thing reach? Has America forgotten the Supreme Being whom all evil must reckon with? Recently in this very city a loyal citizen was humiliated because he purchased property in a zone not totally inhabited by his people. Unable to accomplish their purpose by ordinary procedure, a cross was burned in front of the residence as a “____” to the owner. Such methods cannot be countenanced by any man who believes in the rights of citizenship. The 14th amendment is now sought to be proven illegal, which would disfranchise every Race person in America. The valor of the bronze trooper who fought 'neath the Stars and Stripes is forgotten. The nation for whom he jeopardized his life in time of war turns from him in time of peace. The haven he returned to after the grimness of battle becomes a weightier place than shell-torn St. Mihiel. Is this the democracy he fought to preserve the right of self and kindred to progress without molestation? It was proven that no nation can exist half free and half serf. It must now be proven that no nation can progress half franchised and half disfranchised. As a chain is no stronger than its weakest link, neither is a nation greater than its humblest citizen. Progress comes only when all men are given the right to act within the jurisdiction of law and in accordance with the Golden Rule. Privilege cannot be given to a part and denied to the whole. There must be equality if the best results are to be expected. The Negro is not a separate unit in this nation but a part of the productiveness that has forged America to the front. No struggle for the preservation of place has ever been waged without his playing a prominent part. These are facts that cannot be successfully denied. Out of the realization of these truths should come a co-operative spirit instead of a prejudiced one. The salvation of any people lies within itself. Should America enter into another war would she desire the Negro to again play his part? If it required the nation's entire reserve to defeat the enemy, would the question of the Negro's duty to give his life in the defense of liberty present itself? These are things that must be considered in time of peace as in time of war. Let America make an asset of all her citizens and remember that those who helped achieve victory are deserving of the spoils. Since the Negro helped to develop this nation, he must be given the right to exercise the fruits of his efforts.

CONGRATULATIONS It is with great pleasure that we welcome into the field of journalism the latest entry, The Twin City Courier, which made its initial appearance Saturday, October 4th. The Bulletin-Appeal extends hearty congratulations upon its first issue. Nothing is more essential than another medium in the Twin Cities. One paper cannot furnish its various readers with the diversified opinion to which they think they are entitled. With The Twin City Courier in evidence our group should be thoroughly informed on all vital issues concerning the race. We wish the promoters of The Twin City Courier success in their new undertaking. LaFollette Promises Nation Cheap Sugar By Killing Tariff LaFollette Promises Nation Cheap Sugar By Killing Tariff Robert La Follette, if elected president, promises to give the nation cheap sugar by eliminating the tariff on Cuban sugar. Experts admit that if the tariff is eliminated, sugar will be cheap—for a while. The admittance of sugar tariff free into the United States means that the beet sugar industry which supplies nearly one-half of the sweets consumed in this country will be forced out of existence. With the beet sugar industry eliminated, the American sugar trust, which controls practically all of the refineries and plantations in Cuba, will have a monopoly on the market. They will be in a position to name their own price on all sugar sold in the United States. For years the American Sugar Trust has been advocating duty free sugar for the United States. Along comes Robert La Follette, the "friend" of the people and the enemy of the big interests, and plays into the hand of one of the biggest Trusts now in existence. The American Sugar Trust thinks that La Follette is a fine man—why shouldn't they; by announcing that he advocates duty free sugar he has given them the best news they have had in years!

PUBLISH SUBSCRIBER'S OPINIONS IN PAPER In many of the leading journals space is accorded its readers to give expression to sentiment along any legitimate lines tending to further local civic conditions. Although this is a very interesting feature not many race journals give attention to it. With a view to adding to the recent, awakened interest in the Bulletin- Appeal, and in order to afford the citizens of the Twin Cities a medium of expression, we will, beginning with the next issue, invite through the columns of this paper expressions of subscribers relative to improvement of civic conditions and racial and inter-racial betterment. Owing to the fact that each line of type printed must be paid for by the Bulletin-Apeal, contributions will be limited to ten lines in writing. They must be signed, although the writer's name will be withheld, if desired, and such appellations as "Taxpayer," "Voter," etc., may be substituted in the paper.
