TEXAS OUTRAGES SHOW NEED FOR ANTI-LYNCH LAW
N. A. A. C. P. Points out Situation in Texas—Urges Passage of Dyer Bill.
MOB TELLS NEGROES
AND MEXICANS TO GO
Residents Fleeing—City Authorities Promise Ample Protection.
Breckenridge, Texas, Nov. 25—A sudden exodus of colored people and Mexicans within the last 24 hours followed a march of a crowd estimated at 300 men through the colored and Mexican districts of Breckenridge last night. Threats were alleged to have been made by the marchers that Mexicans and all colored people must leave Breckenbridge or have their homes burned. The colored people are in the majority of those leaving.
Mayor H. C. Fulwiler declared tonight that city authorities will do everything possible to protect residents of Breckenridge regardless of race or color.
New York, Nov. 24—On receipt of news from Texas that Mexicans and Negroes were being driven from their homes in Breckenridge, Texas, and that the Mexican Government had protested against the lynching of its nationals in the United States, the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, e 70 Fifth Ave., N. Y., immediately telegraphed President Harding renewing its demand for enactment of the Dyer Anti-Lynching Bill and asking federal protection of colored United States citizens in the danger zone. The telegram which was signed by James Weldon Johnson is as follows:
"National Association for the Advancement of Colored People respectfully calls your attention to international situation created by lynching of Mexicans as well as of Negroes in Texas and again urges that Dyer Anti-Lynching Bill be endorsed by Administration and enacted by Senate in order that the Federal Government may properly deal with this humiliating and dangerous situation.
"In the meantime may we respectfully urge that Federal protection be extended to Colored United States citizens of Breckenridge, Texas, who are being driven from their homes by threats of violence.
"(Signed)
James Weldon Johnson "Secretary National Association for the Advancement of Colored People."

Social Function Given by the Sterling Club Week's Biggest Event.
The Bohemian Night Party given by the Sterling Club on last Tuesday evening at Union Hall was one of the most unique and brilliant affairs ever given in St. Paul. The large hall was transformed into a real Bohemian style setting. In each corner of the hall were improvised cosycorners decorated with palms, cut flowers and subdued lights. In the center of the room was placed a large tea table with a large basket of yellow and white chrysanthemums in the center, and silver candle sticks. In front of the stage, which was banked with
palms and ferns, the officers of the club, with their wives, formed the receiving line. They received the members and their guests. A string orchestra played Bohemian music during the receiving hour. The balance of the evening the orchestra played dance music. During intervals special entertainers secured for the occasion entertained the guests. The wives of the officers of the club acted as assisting ladies. Mesdames B. C. Archer, L. H. McCoy, C. W. Wiglington, O. D. Howard, J. E. Johnson, Wm. B. Tandy presided at the tea table, with Mesdames W. B. Walker, O. C. Hall, J. W. Milton, R. H. Anderson, H. F. McIntyre, W. E. Alexander, Frank Boyd, Thos. Neal and George C. Sleet, assisting.
A special committee from the Club waited on Mr. Chas. Glipin, who is the leading actor at the Metropolitan Theatre, and escorted him to the hall as a special guest of the club. Mr. Glipin was formally introduced to all the members of the Club and the guests by the President.
The Committee in charge of the affair spared no pains in making the party a success. Much credit is due Mr. W. E. Alexander, the president of the Club, who was the originator of the Bohemian Night Party. The Committee in charge of the affair, J. W. Milton, chairman; Geo. C. Sleet, B. C. Archer, B. F. Edwards, Thos. Neal, H. F. McIntyre, D. T. Reed, G. Gough, and W. E. Alexander, Ex-officio.
Some beautiful gowns worn by the ladies were very much in evidence.

PETITION SAYS LAW MUST PROTECT LIVES
Ask Harding to Use His Good Office To Push the Anti-Lynching Bill.
The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People and the Local Branch of the National Negro Business League have petitioned Pres. Harding and Sen. F. B. Kellogg urging them to use their influence of their office in favor of the Dyer Anti-Lynching Bill now before Congress.
The petition sent by the Business League was formulated by George D. Howard, secretary of the League and was formally sanctioned by the League in session read as follows:
"Your Excellency: We, the local Branch, No. 282, of the National Negro Business League, having in view the necessity of affording a more perfect protection against the crime of lynching, and realizing the failure of the several states to enact, or enforce laws designed to protect the life or lives of people who become victims of mob violence: Do hereby urge that you use your good office in furthering the passage of the Dyer Anti-Lynching Bill, H. R. 13.
Yours very truly

Sold by Mother; Girl Found Tied To Train Track
Sold by Mother; Girl Found Tied To Train Track
Clearfield, Pa., Nov. 25—Miss Nora Moore, aged 17, of Philadelphia, was found tied to the Pennsylvania Railroad tracks a few minutes before a train was due to pass.
When freed, she recovered consciousness and told authorities that her mother had sold her to a white man, who brought her here.
"He gave me something to drink—and that's all I remember." sobbed the girl. She told the sheriff that she did not know the man's name, but believed that she could identify him. Officials have started an investigation to locate the girl's mother with the hope of finding the man in the case.

Political Influence of Newspapers Felt
Standing of Colored Newspapers In Recent Election is Widely Recognized.
Chicago, Ill., Nov. 24—Attention is directed to the part played by Colored newspapers in the recent election. Only a limited number of the papers urged their readers to "Vote the Straight Republican ticket."
The majority of them gave preference to Republican news, while a number gave liberal space to news of local Democratic candidates, and accepted advertisements from both parties, as the daily papers do.
In a few instances, newspapers normally Republican, openly opposed certain Republican candidates.
Editorially the newspapers gave carefully discriminating suggestions: strong Republican leanings with a tempting flavor of independence and disappointment. Thousands of voters throughout the country were guided in their opinions by the information obtained in the newspapers of their group.
The newspapers were quoted both in editorials and news articles by stump speakers. The great influence of Colored newspapers is recognized by all political parties, leaders, candidates and the people themselves.

Speakers Denounce Organization As Menace to American Democracy
At an anti-Klu Klux Klan meeting held last Sunday afternoon at St. James church under the auspices of the National Ass'n. for the Advancement of Colored People, the klan met with wholesale denunciation. The speakers Judge John W. Willis, M. S. Winthrop and W. T. Francis openly flayed the klan. Judge Willis went so far as to say that it would be a good thing for the klan to lynch him in order to excite the people of Minnesota of the truth of the klan's un-American policy.
Mr. Winthrop, a Minneapolis attorney, speaking from a Jewish viewpoint said the klan's crusade against American people is nothing more than a crusade against themselves. He also warned this audience of the necessity of having a substantial fund with which to combat the klan activities here.
W. T. Francis laid special stress on the meaning of "Social Equality." He declared there are two kinds of equality—private and public—and the latter is what the Negro asks for.
The remarks of each speaker were well received. Dr. Valdo Turner presided.
An interesting program has been arranged for the next meeting of the Forum which will be held Sunday afternoon, December 3 at Little Pilgrim church, W. Central and Grotto streets.
HARDING LOSSES
Atlanta, Ga., Nov. 25—Apparently President Harding's Birmingham speech, in which he politely washed his hands of the Race, did not have the required effect in the South, where the former slight gains of the Republican party have been absolutely wiped out in the recent elections and the South goes back to its old custom of the "solid South"—solid in politics and solid in the region of the cranium.
So complete was the Democratic landslide that the Ninth congressional district of Virginia, for 22 years Republican, went Democratic.

Harding Assures Governor of Federal Aid if Situation Grows More Acute
HOLDS STATE IS ABLE TO COPE WITH SITUATION
Gov. Parker Says Klan Outrages Must Be Investigated, Regardless.
Washington, Nov. 24—Assurances were given Governor Parker of Louisiana today by President Harding that wherever federal interests were involved in the alleged activities of the Ku Klux Klan in that state, the federal authorities were ready to extend full co-operation. This was in reply to a request by the governor for government help in cutting off from the organization in Louisiana the support and encouragement that he asserted it was receiving from the outside.
State Competent to Act.
At the White House conference between the President and Mr. Parker, attended also by Attorney General Daugherty and the attorney general of Louisiana, A. V. Coco, it was agreed that the state government would be fully able to take care of the situation. The governor called attention to the campaign he has been conducting against the Klan for months and declared in a formal statement issued on leaving the White House that "regardless of cost or consequence," a most thorough investigation would be made of reported outrages.
Statement Is Issued.
Arriving here early today from Baton Rouge, Governor Parker conferred with W. J. Burns, chief of the bureau of investigation of the department of justice, before going to the White House. The conference there lasted for more than an hour and at its conclusion, Attorney General Daugherty issued this statement for the President:
"It appears that the state of Louisiana will be fully able to take care of the situation. There is nothing at this time for the federal government to do except to give assurances to the state authorities that wherever federal interests are involved federal authorities are ready to extend full co-operation."

Long Islanders Break Up K.K. K. Gathering
Bay Shore, L. I., Nov. 25—The first bow of the Klu Klux Klan on Long Island here tonight was interfered with by Catholics, Jews, Negroes and others, including bodies representing Organized Labor, not in sympathy with the Ku Klux movement, who called upon the state troops to stop the meeting after there had been considerable heckling from those in the audience. The uphost of the interruption was that the Klan principals made a hasty exit and the troopers declared the meeting adjourned when the speakers did not return to the hall.
Klan Candidate Wins in Oregon By Heavy Vote
Portland, Ore., Nov. 25—In the heaviest vote ever cast in a State election here, the Ku Klux Klan backed Walter Pierce was elected over the Democratic candidate and the Republican incumbent, Ben W. Olcott, who was a candidate to succeed himself.
The compulsory educational bill, championed and backed by the progressives went down to defeat after a hard fight.

GOOD WORK
The overwhelming success of the business exhibition given at the St. Paul Negro Business League was both remarkable and surprise to the people of this community. It was remarkable cause it did for St. Paul something that has never been done our people before—it demonstrated that our business men are ree and awake with the times, that we too, can advertise St. Paul by our own accomplishments. It was also a surprise to its motors in a measure, and to those who thought the magnitude the undertaking was too great for an organization whose life led back only ten weeks. It was a fine demonstration of cooperation and support.
It is the opinion of some people that Negroes should not and not put over programs similar to those fostered by our white children. It would probably be futile for us to attempt to put our affairs quite as large and as costly as some we see put over whites, especially where our numbers are fewer, but with a knowledge of our limitations, we are as capable of successfully manipulating cooperative schemes and institutions as any other people. Cooperative demonstrations have proven themselves to be of mutual benefit to those who subscribe to them in their profession and those who patronize them. In reality it is a form of paganda we must inculcate into our systems of our economic progress in the future is to be a marked degree of advancement it has in the past. It is educational.
Initiative and enthusiasm are two qualities necessary for the successful promotion of any venture. But so many of our organizations are lacking in this respect. Initiative sponsored the Business Exhibition and enthusiasm, in the face of odds, pushed the future to one of the most successful terminations Negroes in Northwest have ever undertaken.
St. Paul should be proud of itself, proud of its Negro business and women and business league.
Advertising is to the newspaper what wheat is to the human being—the staff of life. Some people seem to forget this.

THE HAPPY POSSESSION OF RACE PRIDE
The happy possession of all people for the mere asking is Race le, but Negroes have to be lynched, burned and abused into a war semblance of it.
Such, in substance, is the remark attributed to Marcus Garvey in Carolina. Such, in fact, is the near-truth which nothing apparently equivocation saves us from guilty admission.
Generally speaking, a discussion among Colored persons goes to the surface criticism and ridicule for any serious efforts made within their group by one of their own kind. No disparagement of the most rabid white Negro baiter could be more severe in these same people, yet upon analysis the attitude is shown to be more a pose than a fact. As proof, we cite the fact that no real can be made to Colored people on the premises of race le, and turned down.
Marcus Garvey knows this, and has, capitalized it to the tune thousands of dollars a year. He, with his shrewdness, underends race loyalty among Colored people to be under the surface other than on top. Some of it may appear tarnished and even eroded at times, but let the person who seriously discounts it very, very careful.

WHY THE SIKI MATCH IS PROHIBITED
The British Government, through the Home Office, has prohibited the visit between Joe Beckett and the African Negro, Siki. Arrangements for twenty-round bout for the heavyweight championship of Europe, scheduled for Albert Hall for the night of December 7, have been called off.
It is not that Albert Hall is synonymous with missionary effort; the function covers the whole of the United Kingdom. It is not that the oceans of the Home Office frown on boxing per se; it is likely that every one secretary and most of his staff have donned the mitts in their time. An explanation is made that "in contests between men of color and white, the temperaments of the contestants are not comparable and, moreover, all sorts of passions are aroused."
There are more blacks than whites in the British Empire and Great Britain is very far-seeing in these matters. In the terms of peace with Gergy there was a paragraph calling for the restoration of the skull of some cannibal lord. It was a live issue among the people who swore by the red bones.
Ever since the day when Siki came out of his jungle and walloped Cartier, this question of contests between black and white has worried Briers in the tropical countries. They regard such contests as scandalous and dangerous to a degree.

The African native lacks finely adjusted nerve centers. His body has been developed at the expense of his brain; ours is the reverse. Mr. Hughes says that any one of his hundreds of natives would think nothing of traveling sixty miles in a day with a letter; that most of them can carry an 80-pound box on his head for a 25-mile march with ease, and that he could personally pick a dozen that with a few years training could defeat any white boxer. Even the women, giving birth to children on the march, will walk miles back home carrying their newly-born offspring.
The color line in boxing on this continent has been largely a personal matter. So far as Great Britain is concerned the injunction issued by the Home Office yesterday is based on Imperial and administrative grounds.

The SANDMAN STORY
ONE day before the flowers had bloomed or the buds come out the little Leaflets began to complain to the Trees where they lived that they never had any fun; that no one ever noticed them, either, for all the Blossoms and Fruit took the attention from them.
"We never have a party or anything," sighed the Leaflets, "and no one cares anything about us. But if it were not for us I am sure the Trees
By and By the Moon Came Up.
would look queer and the Fruit or Blossoms would not be half as beautiful."
In vain did the Trees tell them that they were beautiful, and that everyone loved to look at their shining green dresses, but still the little Leaflets grumbled and fussed, and at last all the trees talked it over one night, and it was decided that the Leaflets should have a dance all by themselves, before the Blossoms or the Fruit came.
As all the festivals and parties take place on moonlight nights, the Trees waited until the moon was shining full and bright, and then they told the Leaflets about the dance.

A Newspaper's TWO Sources of Revenue
Subscriptions and Advertising Are the Only Sources of Revenue a Newspaper Has and Often the Subscriptions Do Not Pay for the Cost of White Paper
Advertising today, especially in newspapers, is the greatest business getter here is. This is acknowledged by men who know. People read advertisements in newspapers. They have been educated to do so. Every merchant in our town ought to advertise. You remember the story about John Wanamaker? The first day he was in business his receipts were $24.64. He kept the 64 cents and spent the $24 the next day in advertising. We all can't duplicate this feat, but according to the best statistics available three per cent of the gross sales should be put aside for advertising.
Possibly you will say, "I don't need to advertise. I've been in this town thirty years and everybody knows me."
Probably they do, but did you ever stop to think of the sales you lose because your fellow competitor advertises? He may advertise the same goods you have in your stock, but the people don't know you have them. The other fellow gets the sale because he advertises. And, then, how much more business you would do if you did advertise?
We know of one merchant who advertised a lot of goods at 19 cents a yard. They cost him 27 cents. He took a clean loss, but while the sale was going on he could buy new goods at 12 cents. He put them in with the other goods and the result was that he cleaned his shelves of the old goods and he broke even on the deal. Advertising and good buying liquidated his stock without a loss.
We can't all be John Wanamakers, but we all can advertise in proportion to our business. Results will be sure if you advertise honestly and give service. A newspaper can bring people to your store, but it can't make people buy your goods. Your clerks must do that, and it depends on the service you give as to how successful your business will be.
What is done in the big cities can be done right here in this town if you will show the pop, give the service and advertise. Make business good. You can do it through this newspaper.
MAN STORY
All the little Breezes were invited to help with the dancing, and even Brisk Wind was asked to come around for a while. The Soft Sighing Winds were asked to furnish the music, for the Trees wanted the Leaflets to have a wonderful dance.
When the little Leaflets heard they were to have a dance they could not keep still, and long before the dance began they were swaying and fluttering about, practicing all the fancy steps they could think of for the wonderful dance.
By and by the Moon came up and the dance began. The Little Breezes were their partners, and they enjoyed the frolic as well as the Leaflets.
Suddenly some of them discovered their shadows on the ground, and they danced faster than ever. In fact, old Mr. Moon grew tired and sleepy and went to bed, and still the dance went on, for now they had found something that amused them the Leaflets would not stop. They tired out the Little Breezes and they went home; and not until then did the Leaflets stop dancing.
It was a long time ago that the Leaflets held their first dance, but ever since they are always calling the Little Breezes or the Brisk Breeze to come and dance with them.
Often, when all the rest of the world seems quiet, if you look at the young Leaflets you will no doubt see some of them, at least, swaying and swinging, trying new steps and watching the shadows they make on the ground.
Never since that night long ago have the Trees been able to keep the Leaflets from dancing; but, as they never fuss or complain, the Trees do not mind. And so, while they sleep, the little Leaflets go on with their dance, sometimes even dancing in the rain.

Basket Ball Team Swings Into
‘With the basket ball season al
hand the Uptown Sanitary Basket
Ball quintet is ready to open their
season with any team in the Twin
Cities who can come in to the 135
to 150 Ib. class. ‘The Uptowns form-
erly playing as the Sterlings A. C.’s
have an enviable record, losing 7 out
of 32 contests in two seasons and
made an excellent showing in the
state amateur tournament reaching
the semi finals with practically green
material, but with the defense built
around Bush a stellar guard and let-
ter man from Montana and the of-
fense bolstered by Woodard and Da-
vis both lettér men and of college
calibre with White of Montana by
Claibourne at the pivot position and
J. Carr probably at the other guard
position the strongest colored quintet
in the Northwest is in sight.
A man having basket-ball know-
ledge and feels that he could coach
a wealth of material would be great-
ly appreciated if he would either call
at the Uptown Sanitary Shop at 339
‘Wabasha Street or come to the Me-
chanics Arts gymnasium Thursday
evening between 7 and 9:30 p. m.
Davis who has been coaching the
team for the past two years finds it
too difficult to play and coach the
game also.
‘One, Mr. Reasly, a former coach
in a colored school of the South, now
residing at 465 Rondo Street has of-
fered his services but has not as yet
‘appeared to take charge.
Somebody Wuz
Sayin’ that—
Maybe you won't believe it, but
Mr. Se and So’s daughter and Mr.
So and So’s son and a whole lot of
those who used to say, “Ridiculous”
smiled, laughed and applauded aiid
rubbered from the front row at the
Gayety during the past week.
‘There's a rumor affoat that all
those who have been invited “out”
to Thanksgiving dinner have agreed
to fast beginning Monday night at 6
until ¢he much awaited day in order
that their “bread baskets” may be
in fit condition to properly accommo-
date that prised bird of feather—the
turkey.
Judging from the results of the
recent popularity contest it appears
that Minneapolis possesses the prize
winning stock.
Emery Jones, like his friend Bill
Bolden, has finally decided that a
theatre party of two is much more
enjoyable than the company of the
gang.
If one of our proud real estate men
would forget real estate for a few
hours and discharged his pledged du-
ties as a walter even if his business
did suffer, bis very presence might
increase the sale of beef stew for the
benefit of charity. Opportunity knocks
but once.
