NEGRO MILLIONAIRE LOSES $75,000 LIFTING LIFT TOO $2.0 Year—5 Cents a Copy NEGRO MICHIGAN ISSUES INVITATION TO ALL COLORADO FARMERS Division of Negro Welfare Officially Calls Attention to Agricultural Opportunities for Race in State. Lansing, Mich.—In keeping with that part of the program dealing with the rehabilitation of Michigan farm lands, the Division of Negro Welfare and Statistics of the state announces the wealth of opportunity afforded Negro farmers in locating in various agricultural sections of this state. The steady decrease in the number of operated farms and the continual stream of farm folks cityward, is having its effect in both avenues of life. Each fall finds a greater number of vacant farm properties and a larger list of unemployed in the city. In the latter case, because of racial lines, the Negro suffers more severely than the white workman and it is the nope of the division to help the Negro who has had agricultural training in securing a fuller measure of independence by taking over one of the many attractive offers to be found. It is pointed out that the fall of the year is the ideal time to consider these locations, as that season of the year marks the movement from the farm, with many farmers eager to rent or sell their property after the crops have been gathered and disposed of. For the benefit of the tenant or purchaser, the winter months offer the opportunity of establishing and preparing for the spring sowing. Although the division of Negro welfare and statistics is not a selling agent in any sense of te word, yet listings of available properties have been made for the sole purpose of being of service to the Negro group in this connection. It also serves as a guide or adviser to the prospective purchaser who may be unfamiliar with Michigan soil. The division is inviting the inquiries of any persons who may be interested and letters directed to the department. addressed to Lansing, will receive immediate attention. WHITE MAN SENTENCED TO DEATH FOR MURDER OF NEGRO Jacksonville, Fla.—For the first time in the history of the state, the death penalty will be paid by a white man for the murder of a Negro.

Britt Pringle, was convicted of killing an aged Negro wood dealer, whom he lured from his home to a place in the woods and killed by striking him with an axe. The crime was characterized as one of the most brutal in the history of the county. He was sentenced to the electric chain and the governor set te date of his electrocution for November 8. The pardon board absolutely refused to grant him a commutation of the sentence.

THE MONITOR MEETS READY RESPONSE Columbia, S. C. Since the announcement two weeks ago that a a group of the leading business men of South Carolina had met and decided to launch a new insurance company for the state, the organizers, H. L. Dibble, and Andrew W. Simkins, report the acceptance of several other leading business men to their board of directors, and a large increase in tenet stock sales, which gives concrete evidence of the way the progressive citizens regard this movement. The Southern Guardian Life Insurance company, which is the name chosen for the new organization, plans to do a general industrial business among our group, particularly in South Carolina, where at present there is only one home company of its kind in the state to offer its stock for public subscription. COLORED CITIZENS OF JACKSONVILLE SEND MIAMI AID Prompt and Generous Response Is Given to Appeal for Help From Storm-Striken Section. Jacksonville, Fla.—(A. N. P.).—The appeal for aid for the sufferers in the storm-striken district of this state met a ready response from the people of Jacksonville and other sections of the state here during the last two weeks. B. C. Vanderhorst, general manager of the Peoples Insurance company, called a meeting of the business men of the city and started the appeal, which resulted in the raising of over $600 by the local branch of the Business League. Mr. Vanderhorst later went to Miami, taking a trained nurse, Mrs. R. L. Brown, with him, who is now supervising relief work at that place and the nearby vicinity. The insurance company also organized other relief stations through its agents in that district. The Most Worshipful Union Grand Lodge of Masons, D. D. Powell, grand master, gave $500 to the work and the St. Joseph Aid society sent its grand chief, Dr. T. H. B. Walker with a carload of supplies and money to the district. At the terminal station in this city, members of the Daughters Elks nere under Mrs. Hattie L. Williams, and working under supervision of the Colored Travelers' Aid, did heroic work in assisting the distressed refugees who passed through here en route to their homes in various parts of the country. The Daughter Elks gave food, money, and clothing to the sufferers from a fund of $300 sent by the Grand Daughter Ruler, Mrs. Ellen Berry of Chicago. The Afro-American Life Insurance company was another liberal giver to the funds. Most of this was given through the central relief committee in its city. The Red Cross has co-operated splendidly with the Negro workers and has abolished the color lines in assisting the unfortunates. ROCK ISLAND BRAKEMAN DIES VERY SUDDENEY Council Bluffs, Ia.—Mr. Harry V. Besse of this city, died suddenly Wednesday afternoon of hemorrhage. Mr. Besse had taken breakfast with his family as usual and later decided to drive over to Omaha. He was seized with the attack while visiting friends in Omaha.

He had been in their employ for 25 years and established a record of efficiency. Honored and esteemed by fellow-workmen, this respect was manifest by the beautiful floral offering sent by the Brotherhood of Railway Trainmen. Mr. Besse is survived by his wife, a son, Harry, Jr., two sisters, two nieces, one nephew and a host of friends. Short funeral services were held from the home, 1311 Sixth Ave. The body was taken to Trenton, Mo., for burial.

LITTLE GIRLS ARE We have received a great deal of favorable comment upon our editorial leader of last week. Up to the present time, we have heard no unfavorable comment, although we have expected it. The general concensus of opinion is that the position taken was honest, sound and fair. In this connection it is gratifying to note that there is after all a good deal of independent thinking going on among our people along political, economic and religious lines. This is a good augury. It is an indication of intellectual growth. Of course we do not think alike on all questions. It would be a calamity if we did and would mean stagnation. It does us all good to do a little thinking and reasoning for ourselves; to put two and two together and then act upon our honest convictions. When more of do this the better it will be for all. And may we not be permitted to again point out a great weakness among our people? It is our proneness to fall out with one another and call those from whom we differ "anything but a child of God," because they do not agree with us. This is particularly in evidence during political campaigns. The American Negro is a great politician—for the other fellow. No group takes a keener and more absorbing interest in political campaigns than do our people where we are allowed to vote. We get all excited and "het up," for candidates, many of them excellent and sincere men, while others are men of very mediocre ability and low ideals,—all white men,—some of whom, indeed the majority of whom,—don't care a rap about us, and forget all about us, as soon as the election is over, and until the next campaign. We get angry at each other and remain angry, while these opposing candidates, over whom we have wrangled, some of the same party or of opposing parties, even during the most heated campaign, certainly soon after, are as warm friends as ever. They have forgotten all about their heated arguments and debates. But not so we. This foolish and childish attitude upon the part of so many of our people, is really laughable, and would be nothing more than high comedy, if it were not for its tragic results in this serious and acute stage of our development. It is right that we should all take an active and intelligent part in the government of our country. This is done by exercising the franchise, by voting for the men and measures we honestly believe will be for the best interests of all concerned. The one that does not vote is neglecting a sacred duty. We urge our people to take an active part in politics, by studying the issues involved, and ascertaining as far as they can by the caliber, character and fitness of the candidates who are seeking their support and to work zealously for the principles and candidates they favor. Allow the other man and woman the same privilege without falling out with him. We are not advising less interest in political campaigns, but we are advising our people to be and act like sensible men women, who realize that it is foolish, shortsightedness to permit friendships to be sundered over some political candidate whose only interest or chief interest in you is that he wants and needs your vote. "In understanding be ye MEN; but in malice be children." Children all pout over their toys and games but never hold malice. Let us emulate children in this as we play as we should play with zest the game of politics. LITTLE GIRLS ARE ALMOST EXTINCT Little girls are almost extinct. Mothers have made them so. Somehow these days parents seem to have a passion for getting their children grown up—especially their daughters. They start their girls out into social life long before they are out of their teens. They are sent to dancing school and parties and quickly acquire all the airs and graces of sophistication. The urge toward maturity lies in every childish heart. Each lad sees himself strong and fascinating. Each lass visions herself with beaas at her heels. What she never realizes, and what mothers seldom try to make her understand, is that she will have all the rest of her life to be grown up, and that God has given her such a few years in which to be a little girl. And little girlhood is such a magic time. Standing on the brink of the river of life, with the mist in your eyes and the glow of the sunrise ahead is a lovely bit of living. Cares are far away. The future gleams all golden to innocent eyes. Today is full of a grave wonder and a thrilling joy. Love is all magical and wondrous. The hours step slowly along so that we shall not miss any of the dreamy wonder of a single moment. Time seems to stand still. There is only wonder and trembling and dreams. This would be a glorious interim in the life of every girl if grown-ups had half the sense with which God endowed children. But instead of letting them drink to the full of the solitude and loveliness of adolescence, mothers must be making them rush off to parties and dances and fill their minds with social cares, and must needs be teaching them the disillusions of life that always come with maturity. They are not left to stray softly in that lovely lane of little girlhood, because there are so L deal of favorable comment upon Up to the present time, we have although we have expected it. in is that the position taken was gratifying to note that there is ent thinking going on among our and religious lines.

Of all the crimes committed against children, this is the worst. Not to let them have leisure to enjoy their magic time is to deprive them of something we can never give them again. Just to be a little girl—perhaps heaven will be all wonder and anticipation and dreams like that.—Omara Daily News. ROMAN CATHOLICS NOTE PROGRESS AMONG NEGROES Philadelphia, Pa.—The Roman Catholic press is paying considerable attention to the recent baptism of more than seventy Negro converts in Cincinnati. Two former Protestant ministers were included in the group. At a banquet held in connection with the occasion, Archbishop McNicholas made an appeal for candidates for the priesthood and sisterhoods from Negro families. "I earnestly ask," said the archbishop, "all our colored citizens to consider the position of the Catholic Church. to study her teachings, to realize that her ceremonies, her processes, her music are full of profound meaning which, if understood, could not fail to stir the deepest emotion of the colored race." TRAIN PORTERS GRANTED A WAGE INCREASE Richmond, Va.—More than 300 train porters in service on the Southern Railway System were granted a wage increase and adjustment of working conditions recently after a conference between Arthur B.

Vol. XII.—No. 16 COLORED STUDENT WINS AUDIENCE AT N. C. UNIVERSITY Speaks on "World Outlook" as Seen From Helsingfors Conference. Chapel Hill, N. C.—Charles C. Spaulding, Jr., son of the president of the North Carolina Mutual Life Insurance company, was one of the speakers at the recent Y. M. C. A. conference at the University of North Carolina, making the first time a colored student had ever spoken at this great institution. Just back from the World Y. M. C. A. conference at Helsingfors, he spoke on "World Outlook" as seen from that notable gathering, where forty nationalities were represented. His address was in fine spirit, thoughtful and splendidly expressed, and was heard with great interest and appreciation. Among other things he said: "My trip to Europe has inspired me. It has given me an increasing appreciation of my fellow-man and the Gospel of Jesus Christ; a Gospel that uplifts and beautifies the lives of men, as this Gospel is translated into unselfish and genuine co-operation the world outlook becomes brighter and brighter. Someone has said that the world is growing better and worse all the time. I thank God that it seems to be growing better faster than it is growing worse. A better day is dawning, a better understanding between all nations and peoples; and we are beginning to realize as never before our dependence, one upon the other. "In conclusion, permit me to say that the invitation extended to six others of my race and to me to attend the Helsingfors conference, and the opportunity extended to me to appear on its program, give encouragement and outlook to the Negro youth of the land. They deeply appreciate the new spirit of democracy and fellowship which this participation cements, and they pledge you their loyalty and trust for the building of a better world."

A. C. P. TO FIGHT ATTACKS ON CIVIL RIGHTS LAW Judge's Opinion Holds Theatre Not "Public Enterprise but Private Property." New York—An attack upon the civil rights law of the state of Michigan, in the form of an opinion by a judge that a theatre is not a public enterprise "but is private property with the right to conduct its business privately the same as any other private citizen transacts his own affairs." will meet with the determined opposition of the National Association for Advancement of Colored People, at whose instace the Michigan Civil Rights Bill was enacted, it was announced at the national office. The opinion is question was delivered by Leonard D. Verdier, judge of the superior court of Grand Rapids, Mich., in the case of Dr. Emmott N. Bolden, denied an orchestra seat, on account of his race, by the Grand Rapids Operating corporation in its local theatre on December 14, 1925. Judge Verdier suggests in his opinion that since a theatre is not a "public enterprise" but a private one, "it is a very serious question" whether the civil rights act does not contravene the provisions of the United States constitution. The case therefore involves the validity of the civil rights law in the state of Michigan, as it applies to theatres and other places of public entertainment. The national office of the N. A. A. C. P. has communicated with the Detroit branch suggesting that that branch, the most powerful in the state, take the leadership in fighting this case.

MADAM LILLIAN EVANTI, FAMOUS OPERA SINGER WILL GIVE RECITAL Omaha Music Lovers to Be Given Opportunity of Hearing Col- ored Girl Who Has Capti- vated Europeans. Madam Lillian Evanti, the first colored woman to star in grand opera in Europe, and who has captivated European musical circles with her marvellous voice, will appear in a recital at the Technical High school auditorium, Wednesday night, October 27, under the auspices of the Episcopal Church of St. Philip the Deacon. Madam Evanti, who is a native of Washington, D. C., before returning to Europe in November to fill engagements in grand opera is making a brief American tour and although she is well-known in the east where she has sung before capacity audiences, and is in great demand is making her first western trip and has been induced to include Omaha in her itinerary. As an example of what foreign and American critics say of Madam Evanti it may be sufficient to quote from Le Courier Musicale of Paris, which says, "Madam Lillian Evanti sang with rare purity the grand air from 'La Traviata' and created a sensation, revealing the qualities which make great singers and displaying gifts of coloratura soprano which sounded like a pure crystal. Greatly applauded and recalled four times, she sang four American melodies with an innate grace and infinite charm." The Washington Star says, "Lillian Evanti, a native Washingtonian, sang before an audience which not only packed the house, but listened attentively to a complete professional program of classical caliber. Madam Evanti has a well-trained voice of lyric quality. She sang the old airs of Handel and Scarlatti with admirable lagato phrasing." This is a rare opportunity to hear one of the race's gifted singers which none ought to miss. In order to insure a large audience the admission has been placed at popular prices.

The duties of the State Auditor, in part, are similar to those of the County Board and the County Clerk combined in the various counties, in that the Auditor passes on all claims against the state and issues the warrants in payment thereof. During his former term the total amount of claims paid annually was about $6,000,000, or $500,000 per month, while at the present time the claims total about $15,000,000 annually. If his administration of public affairs has been satisfactory to you in the past, and if you think he can be of service to the state as Auditor during the next two years, he will show his appreciation by giving faithful service in exchange for your support.
