VOL. 1, NO Minn. Historical Society Minn. Historical Filings Saint Paul, Minnesota HARLEM INTER ELECT COLORED MAN TO NEXT CONGRESS James W. Johnson Considered As Candidate to Oppose Rep. Ansorge This Fall. 35,000 COLORED VOTERS IN DISTRICT OF 80,000 Former "Election Boss" Has Lost His Power of Carrying Black Votes to G. O. P. (Associated Negro Press.) New York, July 28—Will New York or Chicago be the first northern center to return a Colored American to Congress? Chicago will not this year. The nominations have been made, and in the First District, where the votes are almost four to one colored, Martin B. Madden, Chairman of the Appropriations Committee has been retained. In New York the situation is different. The nominations are yet to be made, and strong efforts are being made to induce James Weldon Johnson to oppose Congressman Ansorge, who comes from practically a Colored District. The Philadelphia Public Ledger says: "The Negro vote in the greater city is about 50,000 among 1,250,000 voters. But of the 50,000 colored votes fully 35,000" are located in the Twenty-first Congressional district where the blacks are clamoring for a candidate of their very own, a favorite being James Weldon Johnson, a conspicuously able Negro. The incumbent, Martin C. Ansorge, a white man who aspires to be returned to the House this autumn, is finding the colored portion of his district in open revolt against the Republican Party. The total vote of the Congressional district is 80,000. The highlands of Upper Manhattan are occupied by the whites, but the valleys to the eastward hold a black city of 150,000; colored people living in fine apartments with steam heat and baths. There was a time when Charles W. Anderson, a Negro, formerly United States internar revenue collector, could go among his race and turn their minds any way in the interest of Republican candidates. But not so nowadays, for a new generation of colored people have taken up the problems of their race." Liberty Life Co. Nears End of Big $1,000,000 Drive Chicago, Ill., July 28—The Liberty Life Insurance Company is really out for a record in the insurance field, for within the next 25 days the company will close its Million Dollar Anniversary Campaign. Every agent is keyed to a high pitch. Each is anxious to share the honors and prizes that will be bestowed upon Liberty Life representatives upon the Anniversary Banquet, August 19th. The banquet will be held in commemoration of the issue of the First Liberty Life Policy Aug. 18th, 1921. Through out the campaign, which began June 12th, the stockholders and policy holders have shown themselves deeply interested. The accomplishment of this objective, the putting on the books of $1,000,000 of paid up business in two months would be a proud chapter in the history of any company's first year of activity. ANOTHER NEW BUSINESS OPENS IN MILL CITY The Progressive Distributing Co., a business conducted by Mrs. Edythe Moulden and Mrs. C. A. Williams, two well-known Mill Citians have opened an office at 602 Lyndale Ave. No., jointly with the Northwestern Bulletin. Black Swan and Okeh Records, the better known line of toilet articles and Negro literature are offered through a service which includes home demonstrations as well as office sales. This is the only enterprise of its kind conducted by Negroes in Minneapolis and as they are featuring Negro products chiefly it is expected that they will do well. THE NORTHWESTERN BULLETIN William Pickens Discusses Lies That Will Be Told To Keep Dyer Bill From Passing U. S. Senate Dean Pickens Says That "Unconstitutionality", "Bill Will Encourage Crime." "Lynching Is for Rape", And Other Lies Will Be Told By Democrat Senators Trying to Kill Bill. (Associated Negro Press.) They are going to tell them, so we had just as well tell them over to ourselves now and get used to them. It is necessary to lie when one opposes a good man or a good thing. How could one bear testimony against Jesus Christ in court or fight against an anti-murder bill in the legislature without taking a false position? How could he ever score a point by telling the actual truth in such cases? If one wants to "win" Kluxers Ordered To Give Up Mask Except at Lodge Atlanta, Ga., July 28—The Knights of the Ku Klux Klan have been ordered to discard their masks, robes and other regalia except when in their lodge rooms, it was announced here tonight at the headquarters of the organization. The order, at first made public in a letter to Governor Hardwick of Georgia from E. Y. Clarke, imperial wizard protem, mentioned only Georgia Klansmen but later it was stated the order was general. Supreme Life Co. Holds Annual Meet First Colored Casualty Company Holds Successful Business Meeting in Columbus. (By Fred D. McCracken) The Supreme Life and Casualty Company, the first Negro Casualty company to be organized in the United States and chartered under the laws of the state of Ohio, with offices in Columbus, has just closed the celebration of its first anniversary. The meeting was well attended and complete harmony prevailed. Stockholders from all parts of the United States were present and much enthusiasm was manifested at the various public meetings. This company, which is only a year old, has done such a great amount of business that it may be ranked with many of the older companies. Over $1,250,000 worth of insurance was placed within the year and this in spite of the fact that only small policies, for the most part, were issued. The first meeting of the Board of Directors was held on Wednesday, July 12, followed by a public meeting at the Chamber of Commerce at which addresses were delivered by Harry H. Pace, president of the Pace Phonograph Corporation, B. M. Ruddy, Cashier of the oSlent Savings Bank, Memphis, Dr. W.A. Method, Medical Director for the company, Columbus, and B. W. Gearheart, Superintendent of Insurance for the State of Ohio. Rev. J. B. Plus of the Second Baptist Church, Columbus, welcomed the visitors in behalf of the citizens. Carl P. Anderson, contractor and builder of Piqua, Ohio and Mr. Wilson Lovett, President of the First Standard Bank of Louisville, were elected to the Directorate as successors to A. B. Boyd, of Cleveland, deceased and Levi C. Brown of Portsmouth, Va., resigned. NEW YORK CITY PASTOR VISITING IN SAINT PAUL Rev. S. P. Anderson of New York City, formerly of St. Louis, Missouri, is in the city as the guest of his daughter, Mrs. Sophia Parker, 350 N. Dale street. Many of Rev. Anderson's old friends are glad to welcome him in the city. He preached the morning sermon at Pilgrim Baptist church last Sunday. Rev. Anderson is now retired from active service, being 80 years old, but nevertheless he is assisting Dr. Powell with Christian work in New York City. ST. PAUL-MINNEAPOLIS, MINN., SATURDA Y, JULY 29, 1922. In such a position, he must use exaggeration or absolute falsehood. When this bill comes to debate, some of the opposition will, of course be due to misinformation, mistaken sentiment and false political philosophy—but most of it will be plain, old-fashioned calculated and deliberate, measured and fitted, cut and dried or canned LIES. And not a single lie will be true. We have heard them all before. But first some of the more or less sincere false notions: Unconstitutionality of the bill; as if it were not the first principle of the constitution of every civilized state to protect the lives and welfare of its citizens, whether the constitution happens to say so in so many letters of the alphabet or not. That is the raison d'etre of a constitution and a government. It does not have to be avowed in detail. There should be no need of a constitution but for these lives and interests. When men draw up a charter for the promotion of some business, they do not have to agree in writing, NOT to steal and plunder and destroy the business, or NOT to permit others to destroy it, and besides, this comman-sense, there is plenty of expression both in the original constitution and its amendments, which will support any necessary measure against murder, riot and rebellion. And finally, a point of order can be called on all "constitutional" arguments until the matter has been passed by congress and brought before the courts. That the bill will encourage crime; as if the punishment of a greater crime will encourage a lesser one or any kind of one. That it will violate state-rights; as if that bogie did not die 60 years ago. What state could ever have a right either to do or to permit organized murder? And it will not in the least impair the state rights to prevent it, because the general government exercises its concurrent right to prevent it also. That is will not stop lynching; as if a million laws against murder had ever stopped murder. But although anti-murder laws have not stopped murder they have stopped a lot of murders and prevented more. Because a law never yet has been 100% effective, shall there be no law! Follies! And now for the plain LIES: That lynching is for rape: while not even the mob had the effrontery to charge rape in as many as one (Continued on page 4) Emmett J. Scott, Jr. Gets Appointment to Boston Elevated Ry. (Associated Negro Press.) Bosten, Mass., July 28-Emmett J. Scott, Jr., honor graduate of The Phillips Exeter Academy, Exeter, N. H., and graduate in Civil Engineering of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, has just been appointed to a position in the office of the Chief Engineer, Maintenance Department, of the Boston Elevated Railway.

Pastor Seeks To End Dispute At Memorial Church Rev. J. W. Harris Sets August 8th as Date for Congregation to Decide Course. Because there is a general interest affecting the public evolved at Memorial Baptist Church, corner Rice and Fuller St., with reference to the endorsement given by the St. Paul Association for the solicitation of $5000 for community work at the church and certain things seemingly calculated to retard the community project have appeared, to safeguard the community interest as well as the program of the chuarch, Rev. J. W. Haris, pastor of the church will ask the members of his church, to make a decision as to whether they are willing for the community work to be continued or not at a meeting to be held Tuesday evening, August 8. Before he started solociting funds with which to organize the community center at the church, according to Rev. Harris, plans for the community organizations and remodelling of the church were approved at a regular business meeting, however, a question has arisen in regard to the way in which these plans should be carried out. Several meetings have been held at the church but nothing has been settled. At the meeting to be held August 8th it is hoped some definite decision will be arrived at.

New York, July 28—The National Urban League for Social Service among Negroes is in receipt of a check for $5,000 being a bequest to this organization by Mrs. Ella Sachs Plotz, a member of the League's Executive Board, who recently died in France. Mrs. Plotz shortly before her death wrote to Eugene Kinckle, Executive Secretary of the League as follows: "My interest in the colored race was early aroused by my mother's father, Mr. Marcus Goldman, who was always a great admirer of Booker T. Washington, and often told me, as a child, of the incidents in his life. Later Mr. Rosenwald invited me to go to Tuskegee and on that trip I met Mrs. William H. Baldwin. Ever since then I have worked heart and soul for the colored people to help create a better understanding between white and black races and I feel that the very best friendships I have were started thru contacts made in this work." The League's budget for 1922 is $57,000. Close to $40,000 of this sum is in sight. The League now has organizations in forty-two cities, its most recent additions being Columbia and Joplin, Mo., organized by George W. Buckner of the St. Louis Urban League and Tampa, Fla.

"Why, I don't know," the matron's voice was dubious, "it is such an unusual thing. Still," both the old ladies looked up hopefully, "I don't see why it should make any difference to the 'Home.' I'll tell you, you just go ahead; if there's any blame, I'll take the responsibility. Let me know if I can help. Good luck!" "My, ain't she fine?" Aunt Sarah Turnbull spoke admiringly to her companion. "I don't see, Marthy, what makes you so discontented here." "Yes, Sarah, I expect I am ungrateful. I don't know's I can explain it—just. I do miss my garden and my chickens, but it's mostly not being needed. Why, I could do a sight o' work yet if I only had the chance!" "I know you could, Marthy, that's why I come to you now. This business I have on hand needs gumption, engineering. I couldn't handle it in a thousand years. Now, my son Elmer sends me eight dollars a week to pay my board. It's the 18th of April and he won't be back from Oregon before November. Let's see," the old lady hesitated, calculating. "Why, Marthy, it'll be 'round two hundred dollars." "Elmer would be terrible put out if he knew about it, he don't hold with helping people much; he thinks Jim's family shiftless, too. I guess things have gone to wrack and ruin since Jim died, but then, what could you expect when an easy-goin' woman's left with five children? "I don't hold with allases, but when you get down there, Marthy, you'll have to be 'Aunt Sally'; that's what Jim always called me." "I see, Sarah; I don't hold with allases, neither, but I guess in this case it's a 'means to justify the end.'" "Annie Barber, what do you expect me to cook with?" Martha Ransom, alias "Aunt Sally," glared at Nephew Jim's wife. "Do you mean to tell me you keep two cows and a passel o' hens and don't have no butter nor eggs nor hardly enough milk for yourselves?" "But, Aunt Sally," Mrs. Barber protested, weakly, "if I didn't sell things how could I buy groceries or pay the doctor's bills, or anything?" The rest of the morning Aunt Sally bustled cheerly about. At noon the youngsters seated themselves at the table with a hilarious shout. It seemed to them a wonderful repast which was set before them—and, oh, crowning glory—a custard pie! Nothing like this since dad went. Already it brought a hint of color to the pinched faces. Martha beamed with delight. "William," she spoke to the eldest when the meal was concluded, "I've been out to the barn this morning and I found two settin' hens. Know anybody 'round has good Plymouth Rocks? Mr. Riley has purebreds? You get two settin' s, then. These hens you got ain't nothin' but tramps. And, while you're about it, you hunt up a couple of little pigs. As long's this family's goin' to use butter and cream there'll be quite a lot of skim milk. I'll get you the money—and hurry back. We goin' to clean the yard this afternoon." The last day of October came. "Aunt Sally" was alone and the tears rolled unheeded down her cheeks. The thought of leaving these new friends of hers and returning to the monotony of the old ladies' home was almost unbearable. She tremblingly wiped away the tears as the kitchen door opened. "Why, Aunt Sally, whatever is the matter?" Mrs. Barber deposited an apron filled with red apples on the table and came over to the old lady. "Don't, Annie, don't call me that. I'm not your aunt Sally, I'm a dreadful impostor. You've been so good to me, and I've been so happy, I couldn't go away without telling you. Your husband's Aunt Sally sent me. She gave me the board money her son sent her, and she's taking my place in the old ladies' home. I just got a letter, and I've got to go back tomorrow and I—oh, dear," the tears rained down again. "Stop, do stop!" Mrs. Barber's own eyes were quickly filling. My dear friend, if you are an impostor, you are a dearly loved one. And, oh, I'm so glad you haven't a home! Now we can give you one." Prepared for the Worst. There was turmoil on deck, feet clattered to and fro, there came a grinding sound, and the engines seemed to stop. The timid passenger rushed from his cabin, and almost collided with the captain. "What has happened?" he panted. "Be prepared for the worst!" said the captain sternly. "Wh-where are the life belts?" "It's too late to use those," said the captain. "We've done everything we can. Now it's every man for himself!" He led the timid one to the side of the deck. Evidence of It. The Desk Sergeant—Who's the dame you brought in just now? The Patrolman—She says she's the woman who was sawed in half at the theater, but she ain't exactly all there.

Playing a brand of baseball seldom seen in amateur ranks, the Uptowns completely outclassed the North St. Paul nine on last Sunday and "brot home the bacon" with the big end of a 15 to 9 melee. The Uptowns were beat by the Northsiders in a previous game and on last Sunday they journeyed to the battleground of the enemy with blood in their eyes and a determination to get revenge. Coleman started the fight for the Sanitary System boys with a hot liner to short, but his hopes for the first safe hit were nipped when he was thrown out on first. Ware singled to short and was advanced one station by West's burning liner to right. Mosely made a neat sacrifice hit that meant a run; Ware making the first tally. Du Love, the slugging centerfielder started his day with a single to left field, scoring West. Rudolph whiffed, thus ending the first inning for the Uptowns with two markers across the plate to their credit. Roach, twirling for the Uptowns, had the Northmen eating out of his hand, allowing them only four runs during the first six innings. In the "lucky seventh" for the Northmen, Roach slackened his speed-ball delivery and the enemy garnished four runs before the curtain went down on that inning. This mattered very little because the lead that had been built up by the Uptowns, plus the perfect support that Roach was getting, had practically decided the game. The high-spots in the game for the locals was the hitting of Dennis Ware, who connected with three singles and a circuit clout in six times at bat. Mosely, the big first baseman, made two singles and a three-bagger in five trips to the plate. Frank Ware and Harry Davis made five and three hits respectively. A very large following of fans witnessed the work of the locals and have promised to be with them Sunday, July 30, when they pitch battle with the strong Lindstrom team at Lindstrom, Minnesota. Two busses have been chartered for the team and its followers who wish to make the trip. Busses will leave Rice Park Fourth and Washington Streets, at 11 o'clock Sunday morning. Make your reservations at the Bulletin of office or the Uptown Sanitary Shop, 339 Wabasha street. Several lakes will be visited on the trip; including White Bear and Forest Lake, so don't miss the treat. Somebody Wuz Sayin' that Among those who arrived as the guests of the city of Minneapolis last week was Henry Thomas who operated his own into Mill City "on foot." If the time ever comes when Sharkey lays aside his cigar for three or four hours at one time, the price of cigars is liable to drop all the way from one to a dime and stogies will sell, "six for a nickel." If work entered into the daily routine of "Tracy" at 317 1/2 there would be a comet seen. Should Bay Harbor not be the stopping place of Calvin Lester, chances are Chicago looked a little bit more like a country town, than the Michigan burg.

Miller's Pantorium, 705 Sixth Ave. N. is now being clothed in a new brick front which greatly adds to the appearance of the place. the states most solidly opposed to anti-lynching laws and even to anti-lynching education. Why should the rest of the country leave those states "alone?" Civilization in the rest of the country is being victimized by this crime. The victimized part of the community could as reasonably be asked to let highway robbers alone in the prospect that their own consciences and the good members of their families will ultimately (certainly, ultimately) reform them. That there is no occasion or "reason" for such national legislation; as if 4,000 lynched men and women were not just 3,999 superfluous reasons for law against it. But what reason can you offer to prejudices against itself? And suppose we had to get the consent of every bootleger before the rest of the community could agree upon legislation affecting his profession, or the consent of every "second-story man" before the rest or us could agree on laws against burglary.

Dr. Frank Crane One of the very best things that comes from war is comradeship. It is impossible to prevent this comradeship, even if we wanted to. Ex-soldiers are held together by the strongest ties of fellowship. That is the reason why, if I were an ex-soldier, I would join The American Legion. In other words, The American Legion is inevitable. It is every citizen's duty to use existing agencies and inevitable forces. If he does not use them, other men will. The best way to make The American Legion a force for good is for all good men to join it, and direct its energies in wholesome ways. The American Legion ought to be a tremendous power for good, for intelligent patriotism, and for sound government. It is so now. The way to keep it so is for every man who is qualified to enlist his membership and help along. WM. PICKENS TELLS OF ANTI-LYNCHING LIE (Continued from page 1) case out of five. And it would be unheard-of-follishness to accept as wholly true even the small proportion or rape cases charged by a mob. Knowing that this is their best card, the mob plays it as often as possible. That it will make white women unsafe; as if white women were to be protected by the criminals rather than by the laws and courts of these United States. As if a white woman at the present time in the midst of black men in the state of Georgia, were not ten times safer even from insult, than a black woman in the same state in the midst of white men is from extreme violence. As if civilized communities, like the British West Indies where the blacks greatly outnumber the whites, ever had to resort to lynching to protect the white women or to protect anything else. As if it were not true that a much smaller percentage of rape is committed by black men than by white men. That is will cause more lynching; as if human nature were so upside-down and so inside-out in Mississippi and Georgia that the lyncher will be more apt to commit his crime if you give him a chance to get into the penitentiary, than he is now with his present chance to get into the hero column of the newspapers. We will not believe that until it is demonstrated MORE THAN ONCE. That the states if let alone will eradicate lynching; as if the very states that do the lynching were not CLASSIFIED CLASSIFIED HOUSE FOR SALE 447 Carroll Ave. in the Hill District.

PAUL A Five-Minute Sermon on Church Advertising DID you ever think of the church as a business proposition? Why should a church always be considered a subject for charity? How often have you heard men say: "I don't go to church very often, but when I do go they are always begging for money. That's the reason I don't go offener." It's a narrow point of view, of course, for a church needs money to run it, just the same as a business. But why shouldn't a church be run as a business and be INdependent and not DEpendent? It can be, but business methods must be adopted. All successful businesses advertise. The greatest competitor of the church on Sundays—the movies—advertises liberally. You have attractions in your church. You have a story to tell. You have a minister who can preach with a punch. The "regulars" may know it, but it isn't the "regulars" you want to reach-it's the "irregulars" and the "neverwuzzers." That's where the church has got to grow. And you have got to go after them the same as the business house goes after business. You know that every business man keeps track of his sales every week and that he compares them with a year ago. And if he isn't running ahead he wants to know why. Do the churches keep track of their attendance? They know what the subscriptions are, for that's vital; yet increased attendance would mean increased subscriptions. The church should cease to be DEpendent. It should go after business Ministers who have tried it have been well compensated. Supposing this advertisement should appear in this paper this week: You'll be surprised. Come out and hear a worthwhile sermon. A special invitation to all. We would like to see YOU in church. Special music. Don't you think it would help? Wouldn't it start some talk about the church? Wouldn't the people say, "Well, I guess the church people are waking up!" The cost of the advertisement would be small, but the results would be big. Think it over. Why shouldn't our churches stand on their own feet and be run in a businesslike way? Why shouldn't the people be educated to the fact that it takes money to run a church, that it is not a charity organization and that people ARE EXPECTED to contribute to it. What would this town be without churches? You would not live in it, for it wouldn't be a fit place to live in. You need the church. The church needs you and the church needs advertising.
