VOL. I, NO. 12 KLU KLUX KLAN BRANDS MAN IN ARIZONA CITY Law-abiding Citizens of Middle West Aroused by Ku Klux Klan Orgies. GOVERNOR PROMISES ARREST OF OFFENDERS Negro Lured Into Car, Carried Into Desert and Beaten by Masked Men. (Associated Negro Press) Phoenix, Ariz., April 6.—The Klux has gone wild in this section of the country, in a made craze to throttle the spirit of law abiding citizens, and has resorted to a series of orgies that have aroused all of the respectable people of the state, regardless of color. "Report to the police, the sheriff's office and the newspapers and let them know that the Ku Klux Klan has been active." Such was the parting message delivered by six persons, unknown to Aubrey Carter, colored, who far the past seven years has been in charge of the Phoenix National Bank Building, after they had administered atimazatizing lashes and marks, K. K. on the body of their victim. Long before Carter staggered, nearly exhausted, into the sheriff's office, his wife had reported his disappearance under mysterious circumstances. It was at this time a man, representing that he was from the sheriff's office, called at the Carter home and demanded that Carter accompany him. From this point, Carter tells his story: "I asked to get my hat and coat, but was told to come along without them," he said. "There were two cars waiting, and both carried fair loads of men. That aroused my suspicious. But as soon as I got into the first car, a Chalmers, a man poked a gun into my ribs and another threw a coat over my head. I only know that we went west past the state capitol." Carter said that the car was brought to a halt in the desert after running about an hour. "They ordered me out of the car, then tied my hands and lashed me to the frame work. They flogged me and painted me." To substantiate his statement, Carter showed three crimson K's which had been painted upon his breast. He also exhibited to members of the sheriff's office the deep marks which had been left by lashes. The only reason assigned for the outrage, according to Carter, was a statement by a member of the "gang" that while operating an elevator in the Phoenix National Bank building he, Carter, stopped the carrier between floors and "sized up" a woman passenger. Carter is prominent in church and lodge circles, has been in Phoenix for the past 15 years and is held in esteem by his present employers. "The charge made against me is ridiculous." Carter told members of the sheriff's office. "My wife is the only woman that interests me." This is the third mob attack in which the letters K. K. K. have played a prominent part in this district during the past two months. Governor Issues Proclamation. So bold become the masked anarchists that Governor Campbell issued a lengthy proclamation offering a reward for information leading to the arrest of the offenders. The sheriff and county attorney have issued similar statements. ABBYSSINIAN SHOCKED BY AMERICAN GIRLS (Associated Negro Press) Pittsburgh, Pa., April 8—Charlie George from Abyssinia, is shocked at our lack of clothes and informal manners. He registers this shock keenly as a means of defending his own land from caluminiators and not to be impolite. Mr. George who runs an employment agency down on West street, and is one of the seven real Abyssinians in this country, read in some paper the other day a treatise on the rampant barbarism in his country and a declaration that gangs of wretched slaves chained together may be seen there by any traveler. So he rose to protest. Not only are his people highly civilized, he says. But "Oh? If Abyssinian girl take off clothes like American girl—no good." THE NORTHWESTERN BULLETIN A. E. Last week, Dr. E. S. Weber, dentist, 204 Dakota Bldg., successfully removed a tumor (epithelioma) from the mouth of William B. Brown, 909 St. Anthony avenue, with much skill and precision. Before consulting Dr. Weber, Mr. Brown had consulted several New York dentists, all of whom, after diagnosing the case, pronounced it extremely difficult and advised him to go to a specialist. In St. Paul, local dentists advised him likewise. But finally Dr. Weber diagnosed the case and successfully removed the growth that was disfiguring his mouth and face. Mr. Brown says that he never has been handled with as much care, gentility and patience before, and that he is feeling fine. Pleads Guilty of Carrying Dangerous Weapon Before Judge O. B. Lewis. Although the case has been continued for further investigation, A. E. Buckner, train porter, was given a sixty day sentence to the workhouse for carrying a dangerous weapon by District Judge O. B. Lewis, Thursday. Buckner pleaded guilty. According to O. U. Bray, local real estate dealer, Buckner entered his office at 411 University Ave., and after some unpleasant remarks were exchanged, Buckner drew a revolver and threatened to kill him. Bray then attempted to wrest the revolver from Buckner. A struggle ensued which was stopped by the entrance of two customers who helped take the pistol from Buckner. The incident occurred February 16. It is rumored the altercation between the two men was the result of a love affair which both Bray and Buckner were interested. Further investigation of the case was ordered. ST. PAUL CLEANUP WEEK, APRIL 16-22 Clean-up week will be held in St. Paul April 16 to 22. These dates were announced by Commissioner Wenzel. A campaign will be put on to get people to clean up their yards and especially alleys in which ashes and refuse have been thrown during the winter. Mr. Wenzel said he is about to send out four inspectors to check up complaints which are coming in that many alleys are practically impassable now because of rubbish and ashes.

(Associated Negro Press) Boston, Mass., April 6.—The Trotter Golden Testimonial Committee composed of some of the leading citizens of Greater Boston, organized for the purpose of paying a tribute to Wm. Monroe Trotter for his 50th birthday anniversary, April 7th, at its regular weekly meeting voted to invite the co-operation of justice-loving men and women throughout the country in the movement to present a golden testimonial to the editor of the Guardian and the intrepid agitator of the cause for Equal Rights for Colored Americans.

Masons Overcome By Gas in Hall Two Members Prostrated by Coal Gas Fumes During Session of Lodge. On Monday evening, April 3, while the Pioneer Lodge of the Masonic order was in session at their lodge rooms at 588 Rondo street, two of the members were overcome by coal gas fumes and two were slightly affected. The fumes were supposed to have come from a badly regulated furnace. Those overcome were Wm. Hilyard, 792 St. Anthony avenue, and Kelly Turner, 935 St. Anthony avenue. It was necessary to use a pulmotor in the effort to revive Mr. Turner. For awhile his condition was thought to be serious. The case of Mr. Hilyard was not considered serious because he was revived shortly after the accident. Walker Williams and Will Archer were the first to detect the fumes. They were slightly affected but were able to leave the room and summon aid. Dr. Valdo Turner responded to the call, and after working for more than an hour, the men were revived. Mill City Man To Write Story For Newspaper George Holbert Asked to Write Fiction Story For Chicago Defender. George Holbert, prominent Minneapolis Elk, has been asked by the Chicago Defender to write a short story for publication in that paper some time next fall. Mr. Holbert is author of several stories which have been published in several colored newspapers throughout the country and the request to write a story for the Defender shows that his work is considered very good. If he accepts the Defender's proposition to write a story, more time will have to be allowed him to complete his story, he says.

WHEN REFUSED SERVICE NEGRO SHOOTS: FINED (Associated Negro Press) Baltimore, Md., April 8—When ordered to leave a lunch room here at 701 West Fayette street, Hobson Turner, Colored drew a pistol and fired three shots at Louis M. Kramer, the owner. Kramer escaped injury. At the approach of three patrolmen, Turner and his brother Frank fled but the police found them under a bed in their home. Arraigned before the Magistrate, charged with shooting at Kramer, carrying deadly weapons and disorderly conduct, Turner was fined $225 and costs. The brother, Frank, was fined $25 and costs on a disorderly conduct charge. MPLS. MINISTERS ENDORSE ANTI- LYNCHING BILL Mill City Federation of Ministers Adopt Resolutions Endorsing Dyer Bill. PASTORS BELIEVE MOR RULE SHOULD END Rev. David Jordan Proves Instrumental In Getting Action on Bill. At the regular monthly meeting of the Minneapolis Federation of Ministers held in the Bethlehem Presbyterian church Monday, April 3, 1922, Rev. David M. Jordan, pastor of Border M. E. church, and the only colored minister in the organization, represented the local branch of the N. A. A. C. P. by speaking for the Dyer anti-lynching bill. At the close of his address the body voted unanimously its endorsement of the bill. A committee was appointed to draft resolutions to be sent to Senators Kellogg and Nelson urging them to support it. The committee requested that Rev. Jordan himself sit with them and draft the resolutions. In response to their request he drafted the following resolutions, which were adopted verbatim by the body and sent to Senators Kellogg and Nelson at Washington: "Whereas, our Federal government is founded on a Constitution which embodies law and order, justice in the courts, and a fair trial by jury to everyone. And, "Whereas, the evil of lynching and mob rule has grown prevalent within our borders, thereby undermining these sacred principles of our Constitution, "Be It Resolved: That we, the Minneapolis Federation of Ministers, representing eight (8) denominations and more than fifty thousand (50.00) communicants, do earnestly and prayerfully urge that the Dyer antilynching bill, now before the Senate, be made a Federal law. "Be It Further Resolved: That we earnestly urge our Senators, the Hon. Kellogg and Nelson, to give to this bill their heartiest support." Committee: R. J. RUTT, Chairman F. J. FARMER. R. W. McLEOD. G.O.P. Nominates Senator Kellogg Republican Party Stands Pat in Nominating Junior Senator for Re-election. The "dope" ran true to form in the Republican convention at the St. Paul Auditorium last Friday. As had been predicted, Senator Kellog won the nomination for reelection as U. S. Senator from Minnesota. Only one ballot was necessary to determine who would be the Republican nomination from Minnesota. It had been predicted that Kellog would win on the first ballot with a big majority. On the first ballot, Kellogg received 750 votes; Judge Hallam, 219; Mayor Leach, 96; and Governor Preus, 13, on the final ballot. All of Ramsey county made a strong pull for Senator Kellogg, by giving him a unanimous indorsement. Hennepin county cast 95 votes for Kellogg; 55 for Leach; 13 for Governor Preus; and 6 for Judge Hallam. The Hennepin county votes were the only votes that were received by Governor Preus. After the nomination, all the defeated candidates pledged their untiring efforts in the best interests of the party. Judge Oscar Hallam sounded the keynote of the Republican spirit, when, in a speech, he said: "Senator Kellogg will find no one more ardent in his support than I am." All in all the state Republican convention was the most satisfactory one ever held in the state of Minnesota. The amount of harmony shown before the adjournment, gives vent to the statement that victory in the primaries and the fall election, can be confidently predicted. Patronize our Advertisers Church Spends One Million For Schools M. E. Church Spends Over One Million in two Years For School Support. (Associated Negro Press) Poughkeepsie, N. Y., April 7.—"In the last two years the Methodist Episcopal church has expended one million and a half dollars upon new buildings and equipment at its nineteen institutions of learning in the South, for the education of the Negro," said Dr. I. Garland Penn, Cincinnati, Ohio, one of the corresponding secretaries of the Board of Education for Negroes, before the New York Annual Conference of the Methodist Episcopal Church in session here. The speaker said that the total investment of the M. E. Church in Negro education for the last 50 years was ten million of dollars, and that from this expenditure there was the big result of fifteen thousand teachers for Negro schools, three thousand physicians, pharmacists, dentists and nurses, six hundred ministers, and thousands of artisans and educated men and women of the Nefro race in various gainful, as well as useful occupations in life. In referring to the South where these schools are located, he said: "A reformation is going on in the South by leading white men and women in the interest of better relations between the races, that is changing counties and states in their attitude, so that if such continues it means that migration of the Negro to the North will be small, compared with the exodus of a few years ago. These inter-racial commissions being organized and actively at work in the South, are clearing houses for race troubles and misunderstandings. N.A.A.C.P. Dinner to be April 10 N.A.A.C.P.

(Associated Negro Press) Chicago, Ill., April 6.—The Eighth Regiment Infantry, Illinois N. G., has inaugurated a reorganization program that is certain to attract widespread interest and insure beneficial results. Probably the high point of this program is the development of athletics and the staging of athletic events. The Eighth Regiment Armory is a great modern structure, capable of seating upwards of eight thousand persons and is the largest military structure in the world completely controlled by Negroes. Many affairs of consequence, athletic, social and civic and commercial will be staged in this great structure. There will be the development of crack teams of Negro athletes to compete under the Eighth Regiment colors in all branches of sport and in all sections of the country. Max Mason's Fate Up to High Court Appeal for New Trial is Taken Under Advisement by State Supreme Court. The Minnesota Supreme Court Wednesday morning, heard arguments by Attorney A. L. Barnett of Chicago, for a new trial for Max Mason who was convicted in St. Louis is county on a statutory offense against a 19 year old white girl in Duluth. Mason is one of the men who escaped being lynched June 14, 1920 when three of his companions were lynched in Duluth as the result of an alleged assault of a white girl on the circus grounds where the men were employed. Of the thirteen men involved, Mason is the only one who has not been acquitted. Atty. Barnett claimed that the evidence in the case was too smattering to convict any of the accused and that Mason was convicted because of the prejudice in the minds of the jury. The Supreme court took the case under advisement. Tips From Our Advertisers K. D. Miller, merchant tailor out on University avenue, 429 is the number, says that business is good.

"NEW EMANCIPATION" OUTLINED FOR NEGROES The "Sweet now and Now" is the Time to act, says New York Editor. HIGHLIGHTS FROM OWEN ADDRESS "The idea that people are disliked because of color is obsolete. The white man has kept this idea in the mind of the Negro leaders in order to keep them from seeing the real race problem, which is a question of dollars and cents. "If what Fred Douglass said of the Republican party is true, then for all these years, the white man has been on the ship and the Negro in the sea. "When Negroes are appointed to political positions, their hands are tied, their lips sealed, and a mortgage is taken on their brain. "The church must preach preach something else beside the old doctrine the 'the meek shall inherit the earth.' It must be the means of putting 'backbone' into Negroes. "Negroes form one-tenth of the poulation and produce one-seventh of the wealth. What they need is not more work, but more pay." ( By George Manning. ) "What we need now is the men who can get our needs provided for in the sweet now and now," said Wm. Chandler Owen, editor of "The Messenger," in his lecture at St. James' A. M. E. church Tuesday evening, April 4. The audience was pleased with the forceful and frank way in which the speaker expressed his opinion on the questions that pertain to the race problem. Social Equality Discussed. Economic equality without social equality is like a man trying to live without air, blood and food, the speaker declared. The explanation of the toleration of the Negro as a servant in the midst of the very circles that refuse to admit his as a guest is that there is an ever present desire to see the Negro in an inferior position. Mr. Owen said: "When some Negroes get a backbone where they have been accustomed to having a wishbone, the race may progress." He then discussed the employment situation and its relation to social equality. He pointed out that the Negro is not the only downtrodden one in the labor line, and showed that the custom of all employers is to get the most possible work for the least possible price. Political Equality. The long accepted statement that political equality is possible without social equality, was proved untrue by the speaker. The Negro leaders appointed to political positions have their lips sealed, and a mortgage on their brains. The appointed Negroes have always been used as a means to keep the discontented ones quiet by their promises of better times in the "sweet bye and bye." "What we need now is the men who can get our need provided for in the sweet now and now," said Mr. Owen. Negro Industry.

She de of Minneapolis last added a little nine year old successful attempt to harm and bruised the child and bruised the child and bruised the child Out on the north side of Minneapolis last week, a white man assaulted a little nine year old white girl and in his unsuccessful attempt to harm her, he seriously scratched and bruised the child who fought furiously to defend herself. She succeeded until help arrived. Even then the brute held off the police, with threats to kill, until more assistance was secured. Our way of telling the story does not boil your blood because the man was white or black. You have simply read the outstanding facts of an incident which actually occurred—an incident which the daily papers failed to say a word about. If they did, we have not been able to detect the story yet. But now, suppose it had been a black man who assaulted this little nine year old girl out on the North Side of Minneapolis, the most congested Negro district in the city. Suppose it had been a black man who defied the police with threats to kill them when they came to the child's aid. Suppose it had been a shiny, sweaty black man the police arrested for brutal assault on this little white girl. Suppose the facts in the case had been heard by the whites of the north side as they did through gossip and otherwise. Suppose these were facts, what would have been the result? What would have been the results in Georgia, Mississippi, Louisiana and even in Minnesota? First, it was a little white girl who was assaulted—the "heighth of all things." Second, the scene of the incident was near the heart of Minneapolis' black colony where the least little mishap maliciously done, might cause high feeling between whites and blacks. Third, when one policeman was unable to make the arrest and was threatened with death, what would he have done? Fourth, would the daily newspaper have told the story? What would the black citizens of the North Side had to do if it had been a black who attacked the little white girl? Undoubtedly some unpleasantness would have occured. It is undeniable by past experience. Some commotion may have been the result. However, we are only dealing with suppositions. A white man committed the atrocious act and a white man will suffer according to the justice of American made laws. Now then, only Wednesday morning did Attorney A. L. Barnett, before the state Supreme Court, argue for a new trial for a black man charged with assault on a white woman, 19 years old, in Duluth June 14, 1920, while he was employed as a circus hand. The evidence in the case is so smattering that eight of his companions have been acquitted of the same charge. But three paid—three were lynched by the white mob in the heart of the city of Duluth in the state of Minnesota. It was at this time Minnesota went on record for its first lynching-bee. Could there be a repetition of this in Minnesota? Officers of the law say "No." But who knows? But our point is to show how the black man is singled out, how his shortcomings and bad deeds are put before the public, how no masks are used to cover up the facts but instead, every effort is made to play upon the least discreditable act a black man commits, how justice is distributed, and how the deeds for which a black would be lynched, a white man may commit and simply be scorned by his friends, modest spoken of by the press, if at all, and given a fair trial in the courts of justice. Even in Minnesota there is a difference. So, it behooves us to fight this distinction and this kind of democracy in the most intelligent way we know of. We must ask and demand a fair deal or the propaganda against us will only serve to make the future more contemptible. Justice must have the same for blacks and whites alike. Public opinion must be moulded to make 'color' less obvious, or the freedom, the rights for which the black man is struggling shall not be what we ask for, but a branded, distinctive kind.

'But I must be for this pawnbrokers' bonus bill, because I am bound the boys shall have a bonus, even if they do have to contribute the bankers' toll in order to get it. That is the estimate of those congressmen who really wanted to make good on the bonus promise. But the vast majority of the congressmen—Republicans and Democrats—who put the bonus bill through the house, know that that bill will never become a law. The bill as passed has absolutely no provision for raising the money to pay the bonus. For weeks—months—the bonus has been batted back and forth and congress and the politicians of both parties were not thinking about the soldiers, but about themselves. Next November every member of the house must stand for re-election. They wanted the soldier vote. If a bill passed both house and senate it would be up to President Harding to sign or veto. Mr. Harding comes up for re-election in 1924. But only one-third of the senators come up for re-election this year. Another third come up in 1924 and another in 1926.

The other two-thirds of the senate—Republicans and Democrats—not being up for re-election—can keep the bill from passing and so save President Harding from the veto he must write if he stands by his repeated statements. So there you are. The bonus bill is bogus. It is bunk. Before the bill was passed it was agreed that every congressman might "extend his remarks" in the Congressional Record. That means that millions of copies of speeches that never were and never will be delivered will be sent out by congress to their constituents. The eagle will sream.

And the article begins: "By a vote of 67 to 27 the Senate this afternoon ratified the four-power treaty with the modified Brandegee reservation, which excludes any commitment of the United States to force or to an alliance." The New York American on Monday, March 27, contained a brief but powerful article by Philip Francis on the theme, "Alliances Such as Four-Power Pact Have Caused Wars for 1,000 Years." It is a Brisbanian article, because the sentences are on the whole short, the paragraphs are short, and a great deal of thought is packed and jammed in six hundred words. We have neither the time nor the space to go into the merits or defects of the Four-Pact Treaty; to enter into a discussion as to whether or not the United States departed from the straight and narrow path indicated by Father George Washington when he advised against "Entangling Alliances." We have neither the time nor space to discuss, pro and con, as to whether it was advisable to depart from the traditional foreign policy of America, if the United States Senate did so depart. But what interests us is, "Who constitutes the Big Four?" and "What can the Negro learn from such constitution?" Ten years ago an alliance of the "Big Four" would refer to England, France, Germany and Russia. But today, England, France, America and Japan constitute the "Big Four." And one of these—Japan—is classified among the yellow rather than among the white races. And we desire to say a few words about little Japan. A little over thirty years ago, Japanese students began to come to Yale University, encouraged by Dr. George Trumbull Ladd, head of the Department of Philosophy. At the same time, Chinese and Hindu students came to both Yale and Harvard. Celebrated Hindu thinkers like Swami Vivikanada, Swami Abhedanana, Mozoombar and Bita Chondro Pal lectured about Boston and Cambridge. There was a different psychological outlook manifested by the Hindus and Japanese. The Hindus sat in judgment upon Western civilization and extolled the glories of Hindu philosophy, with its patheism, its doctrine of reincarnation and final absorption in Nirvana. The Japanese, while loyal to Japanese traditions and ideals, endeavored to learn, absorb and assimilate everything the Western world had to teach in philosophy, psychology, science, medicine, business, industry, law, commerce, art and war. The result is that a few thousand Englishmen lord it over some three hundred and fifty million disgruntled Hindus, while little Japan is a recognized world power. It would pay the New Negro to follow the course mapped out by Greece, Rome, England, America and Japan. It would pay him not only to be proud of the ancient glories of Egypt and Ethiopia, and the mediaeval glories of Timbucoot not to retain his racial individuality, but also to learn everything other races can teach in science, industry, art and commerce. The Four-Pact Treaty is a text from which more than one sermon can be preached.—Negro World. And if right is to triumph over wrong, let Americans discourage forever the savagely dangerous tendency to take the law into our own hands. We are living in the greatest republican form of government known to mankind. Let us at least appreciate the fact and measure up to expectation. And we repeat the assertion that the colored citizens of Indianapolis need no "warning."—The Freeman.

NEGRO PHILADELPHIANS PLAN FOR EXPOSITION (Associated Negro Press) Philadelphia, Pa., April 8—Philadelphia's 1925 World's Fair, the sesquicentennial exposition will be held on the same site as the first great American fair, the centennial exposition of 1876. The board of Directors of the sesquil Centennial committee to-night approved the selection of exposition grounds, to include 800 acres in Fairmount Park and a section of the avenue leading from City Hall to the park and known as the Parkway. Colored Philadelphiaans expect to arrange for a large showing of Negro progress during the war. The entrance to the exposition will be within ten minutes walk from the City Hall, the center of Philadelphia's business district. Several hundred additional acres of land are also available in Woodside Park and the Zoological Gardens, adjoining Fairmount Park, in case it is found necessary to increase the size of the grounds. The 1876 Exposition ground included only 236 acres. A girl with pretty teeth never misses an opportunity to giggle. U.N.I.A.NEWS After an interesting reading by Miss McMillan, entitled "The Drunkard," the meeting was given one of the greatest treats of the year in the form of an address by the brilliant Professor Wm. Chandler Owens, of the New York Messenger. The speaker, being personally acquainted with Marcus Garvey, the originator of the U. N. I. A. movement, gave the members a number of facts that they otherwise might not have become acquainted with. Professor Owens said that he foresaw the great problems that would arise as a result of the conducting of the merchant marine, and advised Mr. Garvey of them, but Garvey with his wealth of energy felt equal to the task and proceeded with the Black Star Line. The failure of the plan is due not to Garvey, but to the class of men who flocked to his aid and pilfered the funds and wrecked the plans to get money, for themselves, said the speaker. Transportation is not a race problem nor will any race better itself by attempting to compete with any established transportation company; the real issue at present, is not really a race issue, but very nearly a labor issue, according to the speaker. The effect of a large number of the laboring class leaving a locality, is to rouse the employers to remedy the cause of the exodus, thereby the South has gained much in the last few years due to the offorts of the southern employers to keep their labor where they needed it. The present day Negro problem is not how he can get back to Africa, but how he can get money and proper working conditions, and the African Empire is the thing of yesterday. Professor Owens thoroughly and effectively dealt with the question of Negro leaders. His version was that too many so-called leaders were "long on inspiration and short on information," and, "any creed that would not stand examination was not a fit tenent for the mind of man." His advice was to take council and give criticism of all kinds, constructive and destructive, and unite for a sound purpose and give thorough consideration to the cause and effect. The program was concluded with a reading by Mrs. Nellie Washington. A short meeting was held by the women of the U. N. I. A. immediately after the program at which time Mrs. Benjamin addressed them.

(Associated Negro Press) Muskogee, Okla., April 6.—Much interest is being manifested here in the Negro movement to Mexico. The colony which was founded in lower California, Mexico, sometime ago is to be made the nucleus around which it is hoped to build a large colored community. The effort was originally started by Californians, but the wealthy men of this state, headed by J. B. Key of Okamulgee, known as the oil king, and R. Emmett Stewart, the famous attorney, have bought heavily into the project and in the near future will head an expedition into the southern country. Hugh E. McBeth of Los Angeles, one of the founders of the movement, has been spending some weeks here and has succeeded in interesting large groups of substantial men of the state in the organization. He is enthusiastic about the success of the effort and among other things said: Mexico Beckons to Negro. "The fifteen millions of Mexican people beckon to the American colored people, Negroes, Indians and others, to come and build, and be happy, live and enjoy! Where on God's earth will honest toil create more wealth in a given period, than in Mexico—the land of sunshine, flowers, clean pure water, gold, silver, petroleum, forests, fisheries, beautiful men and women and soft sweet music, and beautiful moonlight nights!" Delux Trip Planned. Plans are being completed for a trip-de-luxe into Mexico via California. There will be twenty or more in the party, which will leave within a few days of April 10th from either Muskogee or Oklahoma City. At Los Angeles, the party will be the guests of the Chamber of Commerce. There will be an auto tour through the greatest wonder of American cities. The entry into Mexico will be by Tia Juana, Lower California, where some day a new state will arise. Inspection will be made of the great properties of the Lower California Mexican Land and Development Company and the wonderful Pacific Port of Ensenada and Santa Tomas and Santa Quentin. Leaving Los Angeles the party will visit the west coast of Mexico, thence into Mexico, where arrangements have been completed for a very important conference, the nature of which will be divulged later to the colored men, women and children throughout the United States. Economic Lights On Race Ills (Continued from page 1) three-fifths of the wealth of the South, while our population there is only one-third of the total population, and that we produce one-seventh of the wealth of the United States, while our total population here is only one-tenth, cannot be overlooked forever, said Mr. Owen. Those who are spending their time dancing through life, had better give a bit of thought to the training of their heads, or they will soon find that they have been crowded out of the places to dance. "The controllers of finance are the backers of the Jim-crow movement," said Mr. Owen, "because they intend to keep the Negro indefinitely admiring the beauty of the world or fighting his brother, and not bothering about where the wealth of their productions is being spent." The Church's Part. The church must open its doors to educate the people. The churches and schools, financed by different interests, have handpicked sermons and lessons to give their congregations and classes, according to the speaker. Even the stage and screen has been affected by the money powers, and the results are, that the Negro has been shown as a degraded being, while the good qualities have been kept out of sight. Thus, many people are taught each day that the Negro is not a fit associate. Liberty from this sort of slavery is the "New Emancipation" for which the Owen is fighting the tireless fight. He declared that liberty is cheap at any price and that we are living on the edge of a volcano, which at any time may become active. Mr. Owen will speak in Minneapolis on April 11 at St. Peter A. M. E. church. He will make a return address in St. Paul a few days later. When an American heiress refuses to marry a nobleman it may be that she considers herself too rich for his blood. SPORTS BOXERS NEARLY MISS KEEPING DULUTH DATE Two colored pilgilists, contending for honors in the Knock-out Hall of Fame, received a sudden jolt. Thursday, when accosted by the "law" in the freight yarda of the Northern Pacific. But by using the customary precaution and discretion which is accredited to all men of the pugilistic world, they were able to draw a suspended sentence and a warning to leave town, by pleading not guilty to the charge of vagrancy. It is hoped that after this unfortunate delay, the Zenith City was not deprived of the boxing performance promised by this couple. The two men, Kid Wright and Will Mickens, alias "One Round Bill," succeeded in reaching Duluth safely. UPTOWN SANITARY TO PRACTICE APRIL TENTH The Uptown Sanitary baseball "try-outs" will hold their first practice, Sunday, April 10, at Dunning Field. Every candidate is urged to be present with his baseball togs, ready for practice. The baseball schedule will open May 7. ST. PETERS QUINTET LOSE TO UPTOWN FIVE The St. Peter's quintet of Minneapolis lost a hard fought game to the Uptown Sanitary Five, Thursday, March 30. Although the St. Paul boys played in the lead throughout the game, they were forced to play hard for each point made. The accurate basket-shooting of Davis and Woodard were the features of the game. The guarding of Few and Jackson, and the fast floor work of Claiborne, spoiled many shots of the losers. Harry Stovall was the outstanding star for St. Peter. Coach Kilborne of St. Paul refereed the game. SPORT NOTES GATEWAY A. C. CHANGES CARD Matchmaker Johnny Walker has struck a snag which has caused him to change the main card of his boxing bout. He will not have Battling Monroe of Cincinnati to fight Hopkins, but will choose a local boy, maybe Laurence Tucker, a likely aspirant and a strong contender who feels that he can beat Hopkins. Dave Wright, a strong colored Minneapolis middle-weight, who has been going good on amateur cards held in the Twin Cities, feels that he is now ready for the professional ranks and believes he can take the measure of Hopkins. However, it is the general opinion that although Wright is just leaving the amateur ranks, he will be able to give Hopkins a very busy evening. GET READY FOR THE BALL The Uptown Sanitary Baseball Club has completed arrangements for their opening Ball to be given Wednesday evening, April 19, at Union Hall. There are to be several attractions for the evening; especially the performances promised by the nationwide famous dancing master, David Gould, formerly of George M. Cohen Co., a first class vaudeville producer in the East. The Uptowns are very fortunate in obtaining Mr. Gould's services. Talks on sports will be given by Dr. V. D. Turner, Attorney, W. T. Francis, Sam Ransom and Marion Bolling. These men are all interested in sports and will endeavor to arouse St. Paul to the need of sports for the young people. Somebody Wuz Sayin' that— Buster Lindsay, due to some unpleasant arrangements, has made his residence in Minneapolis for at least ten or twelve week-ends. Mr. J. Ogden Armour, South St. Paul, has promoted Inky Strong, and he now goes to work at 12, has an hour for dinner, and is off at 1 P. M. It's too bad more hard working men cannot inherit fortunes like the "Duke." Walter Minor and Cornelius Johnson, songsters, have mastered the art, and are singing a new song entitled: "Sing, Sing, Blues of India." If June doesn't hurry up and come around, the rumors of various weddings will be stale news when it does come. It's a pity Sixth Ave. No., isn't a river but they fail to suggest what kind of a river, don't you know. Heavyweight Champ Flayed by Tribune Heavyweight Champ Flayed by Tribune Chicago Tribune Critizes Jack Dempsey for not Fighting Harry Wills. (Associated Negro Press) Chicago, Ill., April 7.—"Has Jack Dempsey a streak of yellow?" This question has been asked by thousands of fight fans with reference to the champion's persistent series of alibis about opening a way to permit Harry Wills to prove that Dempsey is worthy of his title. The Chicago Tribune in a leading editorial proceeds to "Pooch Pooh!" at Jack in the following cynical tone: "Dempsey says that there is no use talking about a fight with Harry Wills, the brunette mauler. The public, whatever that is, has no interest in it and would not pay to see it, he says. We think Mr. Dempsey underestimates public curiosity. A great many people would like to know whether he is heavyweight champion of the world or white heavy weight champion. We shall assume that he is white heavyweight champion until he gets into a ring with Wills and proves otherwise. "P. S. The reason Dempsey does not fight Wills is because he is afraid to do so—not physically afraid to exchange wallops but afraid to take a chance with his title and the money he can make with it. "P. P. S. Why the dickens do we keep on writing prize fight editorials and causing grief to sober minded citizens? It isn't to lead the second ward away from Mayor Thompson. The second ward would like to have Dempsey fight Wills but we are not engaged in any political maneuvers. "We write prize fight editorials because prize fighting interests people. Prize fighting is the most interesting subject to male citizens of voting age in the United States—bar one. That is the Volstead act. Eliminate Dempsey and Volstead from the conversation of the average male gathering and without learning the deaf and dumb alphabet the men could say all they had to say with their fingers, especially about the Pacific treaties, the Geona conference and the coal strike and the condition of justice in Chicago. "People really are very funny people." MOORE AND QUIGLEY OPEN NEW BUSINESS Messrs. George Moore and Charles Quigley, two well known Twin City men, have opened a first-class barber shop and pocket billiard parlor at 490 St. Peter street, near Exchange. The barber shop, under the direction of Mr. Moore, who formerly conducted a barber shop at 349 Minnesota street, has three chairs with all competent barbers. The billiard room has four first class pocket-billiard tables. Both Moore and Quigley are prominent lodge and club men in the city. R. C. TAYLOR OPENS NEW TAILOR SHOP Mr. R. C. Taylor, well-known St. Paul man, has taken over the tailor shop at 557 St. Anthony avenue formerly conducted by A. Lawson, and is now open to do first class work. Mr. Taylor announces that he is in a position to give his friends first class service in dry cleaning and dyeing and in pressing and repairing of clothes. His prices will be very reasonable. Mr. Taylor has been engaged in the tailoring business from time to time but this is his first attempt at carrying on his own business.
