Those who did not attend the banquet given by the local Negro Business League Thursday evening at the Henrietta, certainly missed the treat of their lives for the affair eclipsed anything given in recent years by business men. Although reservations were only made for forty, over a half hundred persons were seated when the banquet was served. Pleads for Co-Operation Immediately following the dinner, Mr. Owen Howell, president of the League who acted as toastmaster for the occasion, sounded the keynote of the league—co-operation. In his address, Mr. Howell portrayed the path of the struggling Negro business man with his many knocks and bumps without the co-operation and support of his fellowmen. He pointed out the usefulness of an association composed of persons in business and after defining the purpose of the local league, urged every Negro in business in the city to join in and put the program of the league over. His remarks were often applauded. Mr. F. D. McCracken, real estate dealer, told the gathering he was a member of the league because he belived in co-operation. He also spoke of several instances where cooperation had put over big things. Mr. S. Ed. Hall, who is a member of the mayor's advisory board, spoke on the proposed $5,000,000 school bond issue. He urged the league to continue to carry out its program so that it might take its place in the business life of St. Paul. Ernest Starks who recently returned to the city after working with the Liberty Life Insurance Co., Chicago, made some very good remarks. He showed why the league was necessary for the promotion of Negro business. in the city, and urged it on. Other speakers who were called upon and brought out some good points were: O. U. Bray, Mrs. W. B. Elliot, Hugh Shuck, John Webb, Mose Johnson and Walter Chesnutt. Several New Members Join At the close of the speaking, the following persons became members of the league: Messrs Lee Johnson, Hugh Schuck, Albert Wright, Roscoe Crump, John Follings, S. E. Hall, W. T. Utley, Dr. E. S. Weber, J. L. Stephens, Mesdames F. Sear, W. B. Elliot and Almee Hall. The league is planning several other activities in the near future and it is predicted that the result of Thursday night's affair will be duplicated. The committee that made the arrangements for the banquet composed of Miss Minnie Tobie, Robert Minor, and Moses A. Johnson, chairman, is deserving of much praise in the splendid manner the affair was arranged. Unity Club Dancing School Friday, night; October 27th. ST.

THE WEEK'S HAPPENINGS RACE COMMISSION IN GEORGIA TO CONTINUE FIGHT RACE COMMISSION IN GEORGIA TO CONTINUE FIGHT Vigorous Compaign Against Mob Violence and Injustice Is Outlined. $50,000 SUIT FILED AGAINST LYNCHERS Some of the Best Legal Talent in Georgia Enlisted in Aiding Commission. Atlanta, Ga., Oct. 20—(Special)—The Georgia Commission on Inter-Racial Co-operation, under the leader ship of Dr. T. J. Wolffter, is waging a vigorous, campaign, against mob violence and injustice, and for the development of a public sentiment that will insure the protection of the life and property of every citizen, irrespective of color. Governor Dorsey's astounding exhibits of lynchings and other injustices were published and widely circulated by the Commission and created a profound impression. The Commission has drafted and is working hard for the enactment of an effective anti-lynching law. Meantime many cases of mob violence and injustice have been investigated by the Commission and legal aid has been extended in a number. Among the latter may be mentioned the notorious Williams 'murder farm' case, which the Commission helped to prosecute and in which convictions were secured; the case of Tom Parks whose farm was saved from fraudulent foreclosure; the release of a Negro boy who was held in service without pay and brutally treated; the case of Asbury McCluskey, now pending, in which a mob attacked McClusky's home, wounded him, and tried to drive him from the community. The Commission has identified members of this mob and filed a $50,000 damage suit against them. As much publicity as possible has been secured in these and other cases and good results are accruing. It is notable that in two recent lynchings, indictments have been returned, and in one of them convictions have been secured. This indicates that great progress is being made. Some of the best legal talent in Georgia is giving every possible aid to the commission.

Greenwood, S. C., Oct. 20- This town is being swept by a new religious faith which requires its adherents to stand up at each religious service and dare the rest of the congregation to disclose any misdeed of which they are guilty. It is said that the members of the cult shout with such fervor that they can be heard for blocks on quiet nights. It is claimed that this cult wages relentless war on sin in all forms. The faith is known as the Pentecostal Baptist and is led by Rev. David Strom, who is an iron moulder by day and a preacher at night and on Sunday. At present they have no church building, but hold their meetings in a shack in a section of repute, known as Butler-town. EK'S HAPE UND THE THREE TO MINNEAPOLIS Messrs. Phil A.

Residents of Butlertown declare that the noise of worship is now far greater than the noise of the Butlertown in its wildest moods, but the noise is of thanksgiving for salvation instead of the shriek of jazz and squealing of cabinet singers yelling some form of the "Blues." It is claimed that Strom is a remarkable speaker and his sermons attract the denizens of the dives to come to his service to hear him preach. At the beginning of each service each member stands up to be "spotted." Each member stands up in turn and addresses the congregation: "If you can spot me, spot me." If there is anyone present who knows of any misdeed of the challenger he is supposed to "spot him." Rev.

VOTERS URGED TO AID DYER BILL SUPPORTERS AT POLLS Democratic Congressmen among Those on list Made Public by N. A. A. C. P. SUPPORT THOSE WHO VOTED FOR DYER BILL Colored Voters are Urged to Return Their Friends Back To Congress. New York, Oct. 20—In accordance with its often published stand of supporting those men regardless of party who voted for the Dyer Bill when the Bill was passed by the House of Representatives on January 26, the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People today made public again a list of those Democratic Congressmen who voted for the Bill. The Advancement Association urges all colored voters in the Congressional Districts in the various States where these men are standing for re-election to lend their support to their re-election. In addition to the Democratic congressmen, Anthony J. Griffin, representing the Twenty-second Congressional District of New York, made a splendid speech in favor of the Bill. He was unable to be present at the time the vote was taken on th measure. He, however, supported the Dyer Bill loyally from the beginning, and was of great assistance in securing its passage by the House. The Advancement Association also calls attention again to those Republican Congressmen who voted right on the Anti-Lynching Bill and urges colored voters to do all in their power to return them to Congress at the November elections. Women Crusaders To Organize Here Women Crusaders To Organize Here Branch of National Organization To Be Organized Here Sunday Afternoon.

The National Council of Women (white) has endorsed the Anti-Lynching Crusade now being conducted by the colored women of the country under the leadership of Mrs. Mary B. Talbert. This endorsement means much to the success of the crusade, as it assures the affiliation of every white club women.

PRICE, 5 CENTS LEADS FIGHT TO CLOSE CITY HALL TO KU KLUX KLAN Refuses to Grant Permission To Klan for Ku Klux Meeting. OPENLY FLAYS KLAN IN LETTER TO OFFICIAL Declares Disguised Men Create Only Lawbreaking and Violence. Milwaukee, Oct. 20—After a fight lead by Mayor Daniel W. Hoan, the Auditorium board refused permission to the Ku Klux Klan to hold a meeting in the big city building. This action was indicated in a letter written by Mayor Hoan in reply to a communication from C. Lewis Fowler, Atlanta, Ga., in which the latter attempts to explain some "misapprehensions" of the Klan in this city, which Mr. Fowler had recently visited. Mayor Hoan's reply to Mr. Fowler reads in part: "Your letter of October 16 stating that you have ben sojourning here from Atlanta, Ga., in the interests of the invisible empire is before me. "You inform me that the Ku Klux Klan has been grievously misrepresented and you set forth in full the purposes and alleged virtues of the order. "Let me say first that for law and order this city stands first among all the cities in the world. Consequently for you to come here from the states where lynching is the most popular outdoor sport, to tell your people that they need this organization with its hoods and nightties, to insure law and order, is in itself ridiculous. We encourage all, including yourself, to bring to our officials in the ordinary way, any evidence of law breaking as we are ready to deal with crime. Any claim, if therefore, that hooded knights of an invisible empire directed from your imperial palace are needed here to enforce law and order is a clear fraud. "Second, any organization of disguised men can lead nowhere except to lawbreaking and violence." Dr. Fowler recently held a klan meeting at the Auditorium in this city which was very much disapproved by anti-klan forces. The klan was refused the use of the Minneapolis Auditorium for the same purpose shortly after the meeting held in St. Paul. Black Swan Artists Hurt in Auto Crash Ethel Waters and Ethel Williams Injured When Machine Collides with Truck. Boston, Mass., Oct. 20—Ethel Waters, the former Black Swan Records singer who has been appearing as a featured member of the Whitney Brothrs' "Oh!

THE BUSINESS LEAGUE The interest that was manifested and everywhere in evidence at the banquet given by the local Negro Business League, Thursday evening demonstrated that that body will if it has not already, become one of our foremost organizations in the city. In the first place, the attendance which far exceeded the number of reservations that were made, signified that interest in the league is greater than believed, and in the second place the remarks made by those who were called upon to speak without previous notice, were full of pledges of co-operation to see the program of the league go "over the top." One thing certain, the league is here, to work and to stay. Co-operation; of course, was the plea of those entrusted to lead the organization. In a recent issue of the Chicago Defender the following editorial was printed bearing on business leagues: "CO-OPERATION is the keynote of the day. Man is a dependent creature; his success in life is largely measured by his ability to surround himself with people capable of giving him the support he seeks. Henry Ford had an idea, and an organization of thousands of men is carrying that idea into effect. Hundreds of small semi-successful crude oil producers are brought together by promoters and we have the Standard Oil Company, a veritable gold mine for the stockholders. There are the five and ten-cent store corporations, Piggly Wiggly, United Cigar stores, A. & P. and hundreds of other national and international organizations that honeycomb the earth, all living and thriving through co-operation. ALTHOUGH practically newscomers in the business world, still we know by observation, if nothing else, that in unity there is strength. To drive this fact home and to bring about a friendly and helpful relationship among our business men and women, the National Business League was formed in 1900, at the suggestion and through the efforts of Booker T. Washington, and up until the time of his death it was, next to Tuskegee, the one big uplift movement nearest his heart. THE BIG FELLOWS in business, of course, have been connected with the organization for years; that is why they are big; the little fellows are beginning to see the light and each successive meeting finds their ranks greatly swelled. This is a most hopeful and encouraging sign. With a racial solidarity, a group consciousness and a spirit of co-operation, developed—much will be accomplished in the way of wiping out the color line that so seriously interferes with our economic advancement." If the local league will continue to bear in mind these arguments in favor of its existence, it will very shortly takes its place and be recognized in the civic and economic life of Saint Paul. And that is something the race needs. A case that has just been argued before the United Staes Supreme court involves the validity not only of the anti-alien land laws in California and other western states, but of the interpretation of the national laws excluding Asiatics. Federal statutes provide that "free white persons" and those of African descent are eligible to citizenship by naturalization. "Free white persons," the Japanese argue, include all who are not black. In reply the government pointed to the historic policy of Asiatic exclusion as bearing on the intent of Congress in passing the act, and argued that Japanese could not logically be considered as belonging to any race but the yellow race, and therefore were excluded by law. If the Japanese Plaintiff's view should be upheld, the California law would fall, since it prohibits land ownership to those who are ineligible to citizenship. CONTEMPORARIES CONTEMPORARIES TRADING HIM OUT When Congress adjourned without a senatorial vote on the Dyer Bill, the Negroes of the country began to take counsel with themselves as they have never done before. They were forced to inquire into the conduct of the party that pledged as a part of its platform, some legislative or executive relief from the mob violence common to the South. After the inquiry, the conclusion. It is not too wild a conclusion either. The Negroes of the country have decided that the Republican party is ready to trade the Negro out of the party and the Southern white man into the party. The address of the President before that southern audience has been responsible for much of the present day Negro sentiment. The President went on record in very definite language. The Negroes have decided the President intended that his remarks be taken literally. It is very clear that the President wants the South in the party he leads. To get the Southern states, the Negro must go out of the Republican column. The southern white man and the southern Negro can never be Republicans at one and the same time. That is out of the question, say the whites. For many years the southern white man has been asking Republican leaders to put the Negro out of politics. After many years of pleading, the Republican leaders have about decided to try the scheme. To convince the southern white men of their sincerity, Republican leaders declined to give any Negroes Federal appointments. This was the first overt act of the party, after an unprecedented landslide, done to convince the South that the Republicans are in earnest about the trade. The next step, probably, will be taken by the southern whites. Certainly, they are in position now to register now as Republicans since the one thing to which they have always objected has been removed. But something else was demanded, evidently. It was very evident that the South did not intend to join the Republican party, if that party enacted any kind of law which would prevent the southern white men from treating the Negro as he pleases. There was suspicion that the proposed Dyer Bill was constitutional and enforceable. If it had become a law, the southerners would have found themselves Republicans, but members of a party that enacted a law detrimental to their mob activities and "strong arm" practices against the Negro. This would have been a poor bargain. They could not trade on any such terms; and they directed the defeat of the Dyer Bill as a condition precedent to their coming into the party ranks. The Dyer Bill was killed. It now remains to be seen with what numbers the southern white men come into the Republican ranks. It is expected that they will come in with enough strength to break the proverbial "solid south." If this is accomplished, the "trading the Negro out" will have been compensated by the "trading of the white South in." Whatever is done, and whenever it is done, the Negro may rest assured that he will be the political loser. CompleteServiceCo. Architects & Engineers CLARENCE W.

Ramsey County has three of her judges of the District Court seeking re-election. They are gentlemen of the highest type. Judges in every sense of the word. They are real Big Men. If they are bias at all, they are bias in favor of the poor, the weak and the oppressed. Gentlemen learned in the law and who have the courage of their convictions to see that it is enforced. We honor ourselves, when we are fortunate enough to vote and work for the re-election of Hon. James C. Michael, Frederick M. Catlin and John B. Sanborn, present judges of the District Court.
