THANK YOU! $3.00 a Year. 10c a Copy 500 NOT DRAWN "COLOR LINE" SPEAKERS Henry Lincoln Job Signantly Denies That Whit and Colored Spellbinders Are Not Permitted to Speak From Same Platform. SPEAKERS BEING CHOSEN WITH CAUTION (By The Associated Negro Press.) CHICAGO, Oct. 14.—Reports emanating from various sources to the effect that the Republican National Committee has laid down a rule that colored speakers are not to appear on the same platform with white speakers, is branded as absolutely false by Col. Henry Lincoln Johnson, in charge of the national bureau, and National Committeeman from Georgia. Col. Johnson states that there has been no such rule adopted, or even suggested, and cites numerous occasions in various communities where speakers of both races have appeared, in all sections of the country, even the South. The demand for speakers during the last weeks of the campaign is increasing. The leaders of both groups are exercising caution in their selections because of their desire not to have speakers go out who will "spill the beans," in the last gripping days of the campaign where, according to their convictions, everything is going along in tin-top shape. Mrs. Lethia C. Fleming, Director of the Bureau for Women, has been in New York City, looking over the work of the Eastern division, which is under the direction of Mrs. Mary Church Terrell, of Washington, D. C., and Miss Jeanette Carter, of the same city. Mrs. Fleming is enthusiastic about the determination of the women to become a part of the real political life of the country. There seems to be unusual alarm on the part of southern politicians about the activity of colored women. There is downright fear, well founded, that the women do not intend to passively submit to the illegal disfranchisement of their sex, as has been forced upon the men of the South. One prominent woman of the South, whose name is a household word, made this remark: "We are going to exercise our rights under the law. We fear no evil; we shall not be bluffed away from the polls. If bodily harm is resorted to, there are two sides to the question, and we may as well begin to prepare for a decision, a peaceful one, we fondly hope. Why should we be denied our votes?" That southerners have fallen back on their old bogey of color scare is demonstrated by the manner in which Governor Cox was introduced in southern communities, without a protest from him, as "the white hope of southern womanhood." In many respects, this is one of the most peculiar campaigns in American history. It is anything but the old-fashioned hurrah kind of campaign, where there is red fire, great parades, unbounded enthusiasm, and torrid side walk arrangements are the order side of the day. If one should hear a group of fellows going down the street yelling "Hurrah for Harding and Coolidge," people would look at them with astonishment. Whether the Nineteenth Amendment has anything to do with the matter is not known. However the people are thinking, and have convictions. The big battle grounds are Ohio, Indiana, Illinois, Kentucky, Missouri and West Virginia. So certain are the Republicans of securing New York, Pennsylvania and the other Eastern states, that activity has slowed down. RECENT OMAHA VISITOR KILLED IN AUTO ACCIDENT MINNEAPOLIS, Minn., Oct. 14. Thomas Roxboro, living at Eighth Avenue North and Bassett place, this city, died an hour after being removed from the scene of the fatal accident on Minnehaha boulevard Tuesday, in which a companion whose name is unknown at this writing, was killed outright. The car which was being driven by Mr. Roxboro was overturned speeding at a high rate. Both arms and both legs were broken, several ribs broken and an artery severed by THE MONITOR A NATIONAL WEEKLY NEWSPAPER DEVOTED TO THE INTERESTS OF COLORED AMERICANS. flying glass.

OFFER $500 FOR CONVICTION OF FLORIDA LYNCHERS NEW YORK, Oct. 14.—The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, 70 Fifth Avenue, New York, today announced the offer of $500 reward for information leading to the arrest and conviction of any person or persons guilty of lynching four Negroes at MacClenny, Florida, last week. A statement signed by James Weldon Johnson, Acting Secretary of the Association, says: "The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, pursuant to its policy of fighting motive offers a reward of $500 payable upon conviction of any one of the lynchers at MacClenny, Fla., to the person giving the information leading to the arrest. "This latest atrocity in Florida adds weight to the evidence which this association has placed before Congress in favor of a federal law against lynching." CHEERING THOUSANDS WELCOME HARDING Republican Nominee and Next President of the United States Given Great Reception by Citizens of Gate City—Automobile Reception Unique Feature DELIVERS MESSAGE TO 10,000 PEOPLE SENATOR Harding was welcomed to Omaha by thousands last Thursday afternoon. The local committee had arranged the most unique reception the future president had been given on his tour. It was called "an automobile street reception." The carrying out of the plan was in the capable and efficient hands of Walter S. Jardine as general chairman, who selected a corps of business and professional men as captains to put it across. A mile lane of flag-bedecked automobiles ran from the Union depot to the Fontenelle hotel. As Harding's party rode through this lane cheers and honking of horns from occupants of the automobiles and the crowds that lined the sidewalks greeted him. Hundreds of automobiles in their turn joined in the procession. No division received more favorable comment than that of our own people. Among those whose cars were in this division were Alfred Jones, C. C. Galloway, Dr. A. G. Edwards, Mrs. Mary E. Overall, Mrs. James G. Newell, Mrs. J. D. Lewis, S. T. Phannix, Walter L. Seals, Rev. W. C. Williams, Nat Hunter, W. H. Robinson, N. W. Ware, C. R. Boyd, Harry Newland, George W. Macklin, Eugene Thomas, Richard Gorham, Mrs. Jefferson and five or six others whose names The Monitor has not secured. At 8 o'clock Senator Harding spoke at the city Auditorium. Long before the appointed hour it was impossible to gain entrance and thousands were turned away. He was introduced by Congressman Jefferis. Mr. Harding spoke for an hour and a half and was frequently interrupted by applause showing how thoroughly the vast audience was with him. He discussed domestic problems pressing for attention and came out in direct opposition to the League of Nations. Ten thousand people heard his message.

NATIONAL RACE CONGRESS CONVENES Proclaims As Its Dominant Note The Doctrine of "Self Help" For The Race. Holds One of Most Successful Sessions in Its History. ELECTS STRONG CORP OF OFFICERS BY CHARLES STEWART (Special to The Monitor) WASHINGTON, D. C., Oct. 14.—The doctrine of "Self Help" for the American Negro was preached during the 5th annual session of the National Race Congress which was held last week in the John Wesley A. M. E. Zion church. It was one of the most successful sessions in the history of the organization from stand point of actual racial work. A large number of people were present and an interesting program was carried out during the session and plans for larger activities were laid out. Every interest of the race is to be looked after, during the next 12 months, and an executive secretary was elected, the Rev. Dr. H. J. Callis, of Washington, and he is to give his whole time to the work. The Congress is going after disfranchisement, lynching, Jim Crowism, mob violence, proscription and all their kindred evils. In his opening remarks, Dr. W. H. Jernagin, declared that on account of the refusal of Alabama to permit colored women to exercise their right of franchise, no self-respecting Negro could vote the democratic ticket this year. "If Alabama refuses to permit Negro women to vote," he said, then that state is in open rebellion to the United States. This Government has spoken through the 19th Amendment to the Constitution. The question is now whether Alabama is larger than the United States or the United States larger than Alabama. The nation has spoken, placing franchise in the hands of women. "It is high time for the south to produce statesmen and not pigmies who build up race prejudice, race hatred, race antipathy. Unless we are protected in our political and civil rights and provided with schools, then every Negro will go where he can get his rights. We can never have true democracy in America as long as human beings are lynched and mob violence and lawlessness go unchecked. What we died to establish in Europe, we would like to have right here in America." The opening sermon was delivered by Bishop I. N. Ross, on Monday night. At the opening Tuesday morning addresses of welcome were delivered by Dr. O. W. Carrington, pastor of John Wesley; J. A. Lankford, architect; Judge R. H. Terrell, J. J. Finley Wilson, and all the addresses were re- FIRE LEAVES 500 WITHOUT HOMES Blaze Sweeps Eight Blocks In Colored American Section of Pine Bluff, Ark. PINE BLUFF, Ark., Oct. 14.—Nearly 500 people were homeless Tuesday night as the result of a fire which swept over eight blocks of a Negro residence district and for a time threatened the business district less than a mile away. Only the dying out of a brisk southeast wind, and entrenchment tactics employed by firemen, checked the flames. Nearly 100 homes were destroyed and the total loss was estimated at from $200,000 to $300,000. The burned area presented a pathetic scene with fires still smoldering at scattered points. Colored families were wandering aimlessly about in the district, seeking shelter for the night, and here and there a family stood woefully on guard over a trunk, a piece of furniture, or whatever comprised the little household goods they had saved. Na fatality had been reported up to the present time and a canvas of hospitals indicated that only a few received slight injuries. An aged woman was forcibly taken rfrom her home after she had rushed back into the dwelling, declaring frantically that "she was going with her home." She pleaded with her rescuers to be allowed to perish in her burning home. Throughout the district were charred bodies of pigs, houses, cows and house pets.

"General Lejeune's report on the conduct of United States Marines in Haiti only emphasizes the fact that there has been no specific denial of the serious charges made against the American Occupation of that island. "The charges, made by Mr. James Weldon Johnson, acting secretary of the National Association for the Adv- ancement of Colored People, and by Mr. Herbert J.

"In answer to these specific charges it is hardly sufficient to assert that some Haitians are grateful for what has been done and that the American adventure in Haiti has been beneficent. "Our whole intervention in Haiti is in violation of the principles we profess and of our constitution, and whatever the Haitians have done has been obtained, by force. We have made war on Haiti without authority from Congress." CONFERENCE CALLED TO DISCUSS EDUCATION (By The Associated Negro Press.) ATLANTA, Ga., Oct. 14.—Announcement has been made by P. P. Claxton, commissioner of the bureau of education at Washington, that a conference will be called to discuss Negro educational questions. The conference to take place in Atlanta in the Senate chamber of the capitol Friday and Saturday, November 19 and 20. Among the subjects to be considered at the conference include the following: The work, the conditions and needs of the colleges of agriculture and mechanic arts for Negroes of the Southern states, industrial education of Negroes in other schools and the preparation of teachers for Negro schools. DEMENTED DOMINGAN KILLED BY OFFICER Desperate Fight Between Patrolman And Man He was Seeking To Arrest. NEW YORK, Oct. 14.—Patrolman Martin Gill struggled for 20 minutes on the roof of a five-story building Tuesday with a San Domingo Negro he was trying to arrest, and then shot his antagonist to save himself from being hurled into the street. The man with a bullet in his stomach, slid off the roof, falling into a basket of wash left on the sidewalk. There he died a few minutes later. Scores of pedestrains stood on Sixth Avenue, transfixed, watching the struggle, while guests in several hotels near by pressed their faces to window panes. Finally a former sailor dashed upstairs to the roof and caught Gill by one leg just as the Domingan was about to roll him into the street. The man, identified as Rafael Cotin by this time had obtained Gill's pistol. He fired at the patrolman, wounding him in the shoulder. The sailor struck Cotin on the head with a piece of wood, and Gill regaining his weapon, fired twice as Cotin made his last furious rush. Medical Examiner Norris later expressed the opinion Cotin was insane. CHARGES AGAINST ALLEGED MOB LEADER ORDERED DISMISSED LEAVENWORTH, Kan., Oct. 14.—Proceedings begun in the Kansas federal court to bring about the return to Arkansas of Robert Hill, Negro, accused of participation in race disturbances at Helena, Ark., last fall, have been dismissed at the instance of Attorney General Palmer, according to an announcement made by Fred Robertson, United States district attorney for Kansas. Hill was said to have been the leader of the Progressive Farmers' and Household Union of America, an organization of Negroes which became involved in a series of race disturbances in Phillips county, Arkansas, that culminated in calling out federal troops. Several white persons and an unknown number of Negroes were killed before the trouble ended. Alleged ringleaders of the movement, with the exception of Hill, were captured and brought to trial on charges of murder. Hill fled and later was captured in Topeka. Efforts of Arkansas state officials to extradite Hill began a litigation marked by refusal of Governor Allen of Kansas to honor the extradition papers. LIFTING. LIFT, TOO! INDUSTRIAL UNREST CAUSES ANXIETY What Will Be the Position of Race Labor Should the Inflow of Foreign Workmen Assume Large Proportions, Becomes Important Question. BELIEVED COLORED WORKMEN WILL RETAIN PLACES (By The Associated Negro Press.) CHICAGO, Oct. 14.—A crisis in northern industrial conditions is impending on the solution to be worked out by the most thoughtful men in the industriay world, will depend the economic future in the North of the Negroes for the next generation and more. What is to become of the Negro workers? Is the question being asked on every hand by those who have been carefully watching the pre-war time flow of immigration from the various countries of Europe. From the manner in which immigrants are coming into the United States, at the rate of more than 25,000 per week at this time, there is certain to be a tension in industrial pursuits in which the unskilled labor of our group is now employed. The fact that the largest percentage of the immigrants at this time is women does not lessen the problem. Since the beginning of the war, colored women have been employed in large northern industrial plants in great numbers. They are in the places that used to be filled by foreign women. Will the new immigrants replace the colored women? Investigation by The Associated Negro Press discloses the fact that there are some employees among the whites who will give the preference to the white foreign women, merely on a basis of color and not efficiency. On the other hand, for the present at least, the majority prefer to continue with the help they now have. In meeting the crisis, there are three men whom it is believed the race can depend upon to consider the matter from a strictly impartial viewpoint. They are: J. Ogden Armour, of the packing industries; Judge Elbert H. Gary and Charles M. Schwab, of the steel industries, these being the largest fields of labor in which the race is employed. These men have always shown a disposition to be fair to Negro employees for two reasons. First: because they speak English, and, second: because they seldom mix in labor troubles. The subject is so tremendous that it calls for the most sober thinking by the leaders of both races. The South is not without its part in the problem. That section of the country is using the situation to persuade those who have moved North to return, and to prevent others from coming North. Under existing economic and social conditions in the South, the appeals are falling on deaf ears. This makes the problem more perplexing for all. Added to this situation is the new proposition to displace Japanese workers in the far West with thousands of Negro laborers from the South. MRS. DUNBAR DISMISSED BY DEMOCRATIC BOARD WILMINGTON, Del., Oct. 14.—Mrs. Alice Dunbar Nelson, widow of the late Paul Laurence Dunbar, famous colored poet, was unceremoniously discharged from her position as teacher in the public schools of this city by the Democratic board for having attended the social justice pilgrimage to Marion, Ohio, October 1. Mrs. Nelson, who was among the colored delegation from the east that went to Harding's home, joining the thousands of other women assembling there for the purpose of social welfare, had been warned by her principal that if she attended this meeting she would be dismissed. When she returned and presented herself at the school to take up her duties, she was informed that her services were no longer needed. She appealed to Dr. Conwell Banton member of the board, and was informed that the action of the principal would be sustained by the board. THE MONITOR DEMOCRACY AND THE | AMERICAN NEGRO) .. | “Can any boy tell me the three foods required to keep the body ip health?” ‘There was a silence in the class till one youth held up his hand and replied: “Your breakfast, your dinner and your supper!” Ry H. Wallace Thurman. Fifty-seven years ago the much despised American Negro was re- leased from the shackles of slavery by that incomparable statesman and emancipator, Abraham Lincoln. The Negro was cast out upon the sea of life without knowledge of responsibili- ty and unable to cope with the sit- uation of having to care for himself. He has been hindered from making ‘any great advancement because of lack of knowledge and because of the fact that he was held in partial slay ‘ery by the American white man. Has ‘this partial slavery been fully eradi- cated at this present date of “Free- dom and Democracy?” No. | Does the American white man fully ‘realize the meaning of Democracy? ‘Does it mean that a race struggling hard for recognition should be de- prived of the rights and privileges ‘which are inherited by them at birth’ Does it mean that this race should be surrounded on all sides by prejudice and segregation? Does it mean that they are to be confronted at all times by that Satan-inspired law, “The Jim Crow?” Does it mean that the men of this race shall have to stand to see their women and children beine insulted by the brutes who call them- selves gentlemen and purveyors of Democracy? No. Democracy does not mean or uphold the acts alluded to in the foregoing, {t means that all men regardless of color or creed are ere- ated equal and should recetve the recognition and respect due them ano their posterity. ‘Who are the men that never fai! to respond to the call of arms and never fai] to conduct themselves cred- itably and conscientiously whenever ‘called upon to help protect our na- tion’s rights and honor and make it safe for Democracy? What race re- ‘siding in this country is subject to lynchings without provocation or fai) trial? What race has nearly reache! the pinnacle of success although 1m. peded by ignorance, prejudice an? segregation? Need I answer the above questions when you know that there is only one race so treated in this fair land of freedom and democ racy, and that race is the American Negro. If this be true then to whom should our government first see that the rules of democracy are applied? Why tie American Negro. But does it do this? No. Our government is too busy ¢ry- ing to teach other nations what she yet herself has to learn. : Select Your Fall and : Winter,4 . ‘Suits and: : 3 EERE A) re omSRNNR ER a } | : vercoats ; at a Savings from Omaha's ; largest Stocks : : . 3 - Stylish $30 Suits... ; Other Prices #25 to $60 ; Warm Fur Collar $43 : O’coats.. : Others from $25 to 895 ‘ ; FALL FURNISHINGS ON ; SALE AT SPECIAL PRICES j : SATURDAY q : ‘ 4 : GUARANTEE: : ; CLOTHING CO. 16TH AND DODGE STREETS | COLORED COMMERCIAL CLUB BULLETIN Commissioner's report for the five weeks’ work in the Labor Bureau end- ing Oct. 1, 1920, No. Firms Calling tor Help......175 No. People Wanted for Help......206 No. People Employed for Help.... 88 Distributioh of employment for ‘men: | Laborers, hotale, clube, Janitors, 1 evator operatives, garagemen, apart- ment house workers, and department stores.

There was a marked contrast between the speech of Governor Cox, the democratic nom- inee, and that of Senator Harding, in that the former stressed as paramount international questions and touched very lightly indeed upon domestic af- fairs, while the republican nominee reversed matters stressing domestic issues as the chief concern of the nation and touching upon international questions as secondary. This con- trast was most striking. The wisdom of the republican position must be apparent to all. It will commend it- self to the sound judgment of the American electorate. It must be evi- dent to all that if we can “Set our ‘own house in order” and establish jus tice, insure domestic tranquility, pro- mote the general welfare and secure the blessings of liberty, in fact and truth, to ourselves and our posterity, we will be in a position to assume our rightful place in international matters from which it is absolutely impossible for us to remain aloof. But with seething diseontent at home; with acute problems, racial and indus- trial, threatening the stability of our institutions; with our democratic prac- tices belieing our preachments; with our national morality and ethical standard so far from the ideal, it were the height of folly and the presump-| tion of arrogant insolence to assume that our first duty is to nations neross| the sea. Our first duty is here. This| point! is made clear by the republican platform and has been rightly ema phasized by Senator Harding, both in. his letter of acceptance and in his sub- sequent speeches and notably in those delivered on his western trip. As touching the League of Nations he most emphatically declares that be is opposed to it. The contest on this Tine must be plain. The issue is clear- ly drawn, We are glad of it. We do not like equivocation or ambiguity. Candor compels us to say that on this’ issue the platform is ambiguous; but there is no ambiguity in Senator Harding’s position. It is plain. Those who believe in the League of Nations, with its consequent surrender of con- stitutional rights of the United States in certain important matters to a se- lect coterie of foreign diplomats and the embarrassments resulting there- from, of course will vote for Cox and a democratic administration; while those who are opposed to the League of Nations and the surrender of Amer- jean rights and her opportunity, when fitted therefor, for world leadership and the arbitrament of world peace, will vote for Harding and a repub- liean administration. ‘The Monitor has no doubt as to how the American people will decide upon this issue which the democrats have elected, chiefly because of their tra- ditional difficulty of finding some is- sue however false or irrevelant it might be upon which to make a cam- paign, to make paramount. Their “paramount issue” will be met by an avalanche of votes which will bury it 80 deep that it will never rise again. ‘We have no doubt how our own group ‘will vote on the League of Nations which, however, with us is not a para- mount issue. Senator Harding's speeches at Omaha and other points on his west- ern trip have made friends by the thonsands for those who believe in an ‘Americanism which, while not indif- ferent to neighborliness and kindly and helpful relationship to all the mnie conceives as its first duty the of justice, tranquility and prosperity at home, in order that by precept snd example it may be to « towards the same if "3 first secure, in- You cannot vote if your registra- tion is not all right.

New York city CLEAN OUT DIVES oOo authorities owe it to the good name and character of our city to clean out the bootlegging joints and other disreputable dives which are scattered throughout the city. Many of these disreputable places are found in the sections where respectable col- am reside. Indeed, it would . that they are winked at or over- looked in these sections. Drunken men and women, of both races, for vice draws no color line, aré frequent ly seen on the streets in thése local- ities and make the night hideous with their brawls. The police authorities, The Monitor believes, know where many of these places are. If they do not, they can find out, if they really want to and they should be closed up, The epidemic of shooting scrapes and other crimes which jeopardize the safety of law-abiding citizens is di- rectly due to the vile, maddening, poisonous concoctions sold at exorbit- ant prices in these bootlegging joints and dives. The Monitor opposed pro- hibition because we believed that it was not the best way to eradicate the drink evil and would result in multi- plying bootlegging joints dispensing liquor substitutes more poisonous and destructive than the’ government-in- spected and licensed beverages sold in saloons. This we believe to be true. That there are scores of bootlegging joints and dives in Omaha is very evi- dent. They ought to be cleaned oist. They are a constant menace to the community. The Monitor demande that the authorities exert themselves to ferret out and close up such places wherever they are found and espe- cially in the residence districts occu- pied by respectable colored people where it seems to be taken for grant- ed that they can be operated with im- punity. It is not the duty of the col- ored citizens to ferret out such places any more than it is the duty of the white citizens to ferret out such places among the white people, but the duty of the police authorities. Let them do their duty. Clean out dives and close up bootlegging joints. A RAY IN THE DARKNESS A REMARKABLE thing happened in Mississippi recently. A meet- ing of white people was held in the leading Baptist church of Corinth and passed resolutions denouncing the lynching of two colored Americans, commonly called “negroes,” in that community and pledging themselves to cooperate with the authorities in bringing the lynchers to justice. We believe that such a meeting as this and such action as was taken is un- precedented in the Southland. The general practice of that section has always been to condone or justify the action of the mob. The victim being black was “only nigger” not a hu- man being, and therefore entitled to een ae SS THE MONITOR no more consideration than a dog or some similar lower animal. This, un- fortunately, is the mental attitude of the South toward the colored Amer- iean and it is becoming the mental attitude of the North. The unprece- dented action of the citizens of Cor- inth, Miss., is therefore a gleam of light in the mental darkness touching the crime of mob-murder which low- ers so ominously over the fair South- land. The Monitor notes this prophetic ray with delight, and believes that it is the harbinger of a brighter day. When the Christian white people of the South condemn lynching and de- mand that law shall protect white and black alike the problem of inter-ragial amity will be solved. ce passing of Judge Estelle, the nestor of the district bench, re- moves an upright and outstanding citi- zen who will be genuinely mourned. Just, kind-hearted and sympathetic tempering justice with mercy his ju- dicial career was without reproach. His connection with the juvenile court made the experiment a marked sue- cess. Judge Estelle held a warm place in the affections of our people in com- mon with all Omaha citizens. We per- sonally enjoyed his friendship and con- fidence for nearly thirty years which will be treasured as a sacred memory A WORD TO PARENTS ao Monitor calls upon parents who have children in school to visit the sehools where their children are enrolled, become acquainted with the principal and teachers and cooper- ate with the school authorities in see- ing that their children are taking full advantage of their opportunities.

MACON, Proprietor 2412 Lake St. Two doors east of Columbia Hall JUDGE ESTELLE WHAT THE EDITORS SAY One finds a terrible indictment against American democracy and the American claim of justice and fair play in the courts in the ante mortem statement of Edgar C. Caldwell, hanged at Anniston, Ala, July 30th, for thé killing of a street-car con- ductor. He sald: “1 am being sacrificed today upon the altar of passion and racial hatred that appears to be the bulwark of America’s civilization. If it would alleviate the pain and suffering of my race, I would count myself fortunate in dying. But 1 am but one of the many vietims among my people who are paying the price of America’s mockery of law and dishonesty in her rofession of a world democracy.” This haunting, burning wail of a hapless wretch, made the victim of race hate and the regime of terror and intimidation of the Southland, was uttered while Sergeant Edgar Caldwell faced immediate and cer- tain death. Without flinching he epi- tomizes the awfil condition of which he was victim and which he felt scant hope would ever be corrected. He had been a soldier, bad fought for freedom and “democracy.” He had likewise become the victim of bis very patriotism, for it developes that his uniform, the fact of his being a sot- dier, even intensified the hate which gave him his penalty of death. Other Negro soldiers must know, by his ex- ample, that because of thelr soldiery, they are entitled to no more consider- ation and respect than were Negroes aceorded before they had helped save America and the World. This glaring indictment of Ameri- can democracy coming as {f from the dead, should be kept alive, published broadeast, to bring American justice into court before the world. If Negroes have do right of self defense against the wrongful attack of a white man, it should be established and promulgat- ed as the law of the land, so that Ne- groes would know that there is a law for the Negro and another for the white; and so that America will cease to publish to the world that here is Uberty, justice, oportunity for all men irrespective of race, color, religion or their natural differences as men. —Savannah Tribune.

WILLIAMS DE- Mr. Fred C.

PATRONIZE THE MONITOR ADVERTISERS (By Clarence Desdunes.) FUNDAMENTAL OF TECHNIC What is the fundamental of a perfect Violin technic? A natural question of today. My answer is "Absolute pitch, first of all." Many a violinist plays a difficult passage, sounding every note; and yet it sounds out of tune. The first and second movements of the Beethoven concerto have no double-stops; yet they are extremely difficult to play. Why? Because they call for absolute pitch: they must be played in perfect time so that each tone stands out in all its fullness and clarity like a rock in the sea. And without a fundamental control of pitch such a master work will always beyond the violinist's reach. Many a player has the facility; but without perfect intonation he can never at- JOHN B. HARRIS Clarence Desdunes tain the highest perfection. On the other hand, any one who can play a single phrase in absolute pitch, has the first and great essential. Its control depends first of all on the ear, and a sensitive ear finds differences in shading; it bids the violinist play a trifle sharper, a trifle flatter, according to the general harmonic color of the acomanement; it leads him to observe a difference, when the harmonic atmosphere demands it, between a C sharp in the key of E major and a D flat in the same key. Every player finds some phases of technic easy and others difficult. For instance, I have never had to work hard for quality of tone when I wish to get certain color effects, they come. I have no difficulty in expressing my feelings, my emotions in tone. Next week: "The Problem of Technic." Clarence Desdunes. HELPS FOR THE HOUSEWIFE Contributed by Fred D. Gamble, Chef de Cuisine, Chicago, Ill. Boiling Last week we took up the subject of oven roasting and this week we shall see what results we will get from boiling. First, we must bear in mind two things vis: that we must always put fresh meat on to boil in hot water and salt meat in cold or tepid water. We put fresh meat on in hot water because by this method we harden the surface of the meat and seal the pores and thus prevent the juices from escaping. The water should be boiling hot to start and then allowed to reduce to a simmer. If allowed to continue at a high boiling point for very long it would cause the meat to be tough and undesirable. After the first few minutes therefore the temperature should be reduced to about 175 degrees F. The vessel used should be just large enough to hold meat and allow same to be just covered with liquid. Salt meat is sometimes soaked in cold water before cooking to extract some of the salt but whether or - not this is done the meat should be put on in cold or tepid water and brought slowly to a boiling point, allowing same to boil for about five minutes and then reduce the temperature to about 175 degrees F. Salt meat requires a longer time to cook than fresh meat. If the meat is very salty and you have not previously soaked it, it would be well to change the water after reaching the boiling point but be sure the second water is boiling. Worth Knowing. Salf placed under baking pans in the oven will prevent contents from scorching on the bottom. A pinch of soda stirred in milk that is to be boiled will prevent it from curdling. By pressing down on the edge of a glass with your finger you can pour hot liquids into same without breaking. FRENCH MUSTARD DRESSING 3 tablespoons mustard; 1 tablespoon of sugar; 1 egg. Mix to a paste and add one cup of boiling vinegar stirring at the same time until smooth. INTELLIGENCE CONTEST NO. 8.

To neglect this you will neglect your most important duty to yourself, race and nation. DON'T fail to learn the ward, or precinct in which you live. These are vital to intelligent voting. DON'T fail to learn the Constitution of the U. S. and your own state. This is essential to intelligent citizenship. DON'T fail yourself, nor to pursue all those whom you know are of voting age to go to the polls on election day and cast your vote. This is your one big chance to help yourself, your race and your nation. DON'T sell your vote. One's suffrage is his license to freedom and citizenship. To sell one, is to give away the other. You can not afford either. DON'T let the ward politician decide your vote for you. Learn the issues at stake and the principles involved and make your own decision. DON'T vote for or against the personality of the candidates. Vote for the issues on which they are running. DON'T be fooled into voting the Democratic ticket. There is nothing either on or in it for the interest of the Colored people. DON'T fail to have in your home a Colored newspaper or magazine. They are the only mirrors in which members of our group may look and have their true image reflected. BANKING CORPORATION HEARTLY SUPPORTED (By The Associated Negro Press.) LOUISVILLE, Ky., Oct. 14. The First Standard Bank of this place has made what is believed to be a record among colored people in the United States. Its entire stock representing capital and surplus of $110,000 has been sold in less than five months. In other words, colored people themselves have bought up the entire Capital stock within less than five months—not one dollar of stock having been sold to white persons. So far as available records show there is no other corporation among colored people that has ever approached this record. Wilson S. Lovett is business agent of The First Standard. ACQUITTED OF MURDER CHARGE IN FIVE MINUTES (By The Associated Negro Press.) BY THE ASSOCIATED NEGRO PRESS. NEWPORT NEWS, Va., Oct. 14. Following deliberation of less than five minutes, a Newport News jury acquitted George Carr on a charge of murder in connection with the killing of Simon Wise Lewis, white seaman from Texas. The affair took place at the colored man's home, and it was alleged by Carr that when he fired the fatal shot he was attempting to defend his home from a mob engaged in rioting. Evidence brought out the fact that Lewis had nothing to do with the riot and was merely walking along the avenue when he was killed. (By The Associated Negro Press.) HAVANA, Cuba, Oct. 14.—The political campaign of Cuba is beginning to wax warm. The leading presidential candidate, Zayas, has as his campaign manager Juan Gulberto Gomez, a citizen of color, and the Politica Comica, the leading humorous publication of the island, constantly caricatures Gomez in true rock-ribbed American southern fashion. Such demagogery, however, only serves to gligst the people of Cuba. Primitive Ramirez Ros, a citizen or color, and a member of the present house of representatives, and one of the leading business men of Havana, will unquestionably be re-elected to Congress. He is the most popular candidate on the island.

Zion Baptist Church followed a four nights' program and entertainment at the church, in which four auxiliaries of the church participated with an elaborate and well rendered program. Dr. W. F. Botts of Omaha. Neb. delivered a most impressive sermon. The money raised from all sources was $501. Dr. Botts congratulated the people of Lincoln on their splendid work and urged them to stand by their pastor. A number of out of town people were worshippers in the congregation among whom were the Rev. Messrs Botts, and Harris and wives. R. C. Lewis, Mrs. O. Kirtley, Mrs. E. Gorham and H. L Anderson all of Omaha PERTINENT INQUIRIES GENERALLY APPLICABLE (By The Associated Negro Press.) NEW YORK CITY, Oct. 14—In a special statement to the New York Globe, William T. Williams makes some very pertinent inquiries, that might be used in all the large cities. He says: "As a resident of Brooklyn for a number of years I have taken keen interest in observing the type of man employed as motorman, conductor, elevated and subway guard. I venture to say that there is a fair representation of at least ten or more foreign speaking nations—Italian, Jewish, Irish, German, Dutch, Swedish, Polish and many others. "The union evidently does not discriminate against our foreign neighbors as members, nor does the company object to employing them. It is said that many of the striking employees are veterans of the last war, who in response to the nation's call fought for world democracy. I recall seeing one of the banners used in the parade which read: "We Fought for Democracy, and This is Our Reward." Thus I assume that they keenly feel the sting of ingratitude. There are hundreds of Negro men, veterans of the late war, and others who are well fitted for the position of motorman, conductor, elevated and subway guard—men who, if given an equal chance would prove themselves valuable assets not only to the B. R. T., but to any traction or railroad company. Would it not be an equitable undertaking to amalgamate the peaceable, law-abiding, worthy colored brother of our own household with the stranger from afar that he may, indeed, say there is no hypoherisy in American Democracy?" BEATS WILSON HOLLOW: (By The Associated Negro Press.)$^{8}$ SACRAMENTO, CAL., Oct. 14.—John W. Fowler, of Oakland, colored progressive candidate for assemblyman from the 29th district, held a state progressive convention all by himself as the only person who qualified as progressive party delegate at the primary. After calling the convention to order Fowler appointed committees, delivered a keynote speech endorsing Harding and Coolidge and Samuel Shortridge, Republican candidate for United States Senator, appointed himself chairman of the progressive state central committee and adjourned the convention. Expert Mice Catchers. The barn owl, when she has young, brings a mouse to her nest about every 12 minutes. As she is actively employed at both evening and dawn, and as both male and female hunt, 40 mice a day is a low computation for the total capture.—Brooklyn Eagle. 225 South 10th Street.—Telephones: L-5550 and L-4302 "The store that sells the best For just a little loss -- GOLD & CO. 1020 - 1033 O Street LINCOLN, NEBR."

INTEREST IN RACIAL ART In my last letter to the public on racial consciousness, beauty and achievement of our people may not have been made clear. For that rea- son I am writing again. In the first place, consciousness means one knowing his or her own niind and governed by the dictates of his or her own thought. Secondly, there must be some estab- lished fact by which one must think, and there is no way to establish these faets without Art and Literature upon the subject which we are most in- terested In. Today we are more interested in establishing a racial confidence in a people who have been taught for two hundred years that there was no good thing come out of Africa. Now we must reach every woman and child with our pictures, calendars, post cards, colored dolls and statuettes, the most beautiful printing and work- manship the world has ever known. ‘The prices are low in order that none will be without them.
