NO. 25 RACE CLASHES ARE PUZZLING TO OUR GREATEST LEADER RACE CLASHES ARE PUZZLING TO OUR GREATEST LEADER (Special to the Tribune.) TUSKEGEE, Ala., Sept. 16.—R. R. Moton, Booker T. Washington's successor as head of Tuskegee institute, declared in a statement regarding recent rate riots in north and south that it is difficult to understand why there should be so much apparent suspicion and bitterness on the part of both the white and Negro races. Reports Intense Feeling. "I have never known the Colored people to have more intense feeling toward the white people than at present." Moton said, "and I have never known a time when there was less reason. I never knew a time when the white people of the south, not only leading white people, but the average white man, were more anxious than at present to be absolutely fair and just to the Negro. This is also true of the north. "There was never a time when the south, and the north, too, saw more clearly the value of the Negro as an economic factor in industrial operations. I never knew a time when southern white people felt more chagrined and humiliated at the awful crime of lynching than they do today, and I never knew a time when they were more determined to put down mob rule, whether aimed at black or white, then now. "We, north and south, should make up our minds that there is room enough, there is opportunity enough for Colored and white to work peacefully and harmoniously here in America, each living his life unharmed by any act or any untoward attitude of the other, and I hope that our leaders in every community, white and black will get together and smooth out matters that are misunderstood so that America can teach the world that black people and white people can live peacefully and harmoniously in our great country." MESA By Reginald Jackson Mr. Joe Graham is the proudest man in Mesa this week, all because some of his relatives from Silver City, N. M., arrived in the Gem City. Mr. and Mrs. Samuel Wilson and son, who have been visiting in Oklahoma the past month, returned last week. Mr. Wilson's position was open for him and he has begun work. The Colored churches of Mesa are progressing nicely and attendance at both is good. Mr. Jenkins and family have moved to the country and will remain until the cotton picking season is over. Mr. Judge Taylor and family are expecting to leave soon. Mr. Will Brown, one of our enterprising and progressive citizens, has secured himself a first class cook and the boarders are flocking to him. Some say that Mr. Brown is looking more for a wife than a cook. The doors of Mt. Calvary Baptist church were closed all day Sunday and the pastor and members went to Phoenix in a body to help celebrate Rev. C. A. Gilmore's anniversary at the Second Baptist church. Mr. Albert Taylor has recovered from his recent indisposition. We are glad to see him walking around once more. Master P. Davis has been on the sick list the past few days, but is now improved. ALBANY, Ga., Sept. 9.—A local story carried in today's Herald, shows that the Negroes of Dougherty county now retain property for taxation valued at nearly three-quarters of a million dollars, and that the returns by this race increased seven and one-half per cent, last year, whereas the returns of the white taxpayers increased but two and one-third per cent. All members of the Wisconsin delegation in the house introduced identical bills Wednesday proposing bonuses at the rate of $30 a month for each month's service of soldiers, sailors, marines and Red Cross nurses. It was estimated $1,400,000,000 would be required to make the payments. THE INTER-RACIAL AMBASSADOR THRILLS AUDIENCE IN SOUTH THE INTER-RACIAL AMBASSADOR THRILLS AUDIENCE IN SOUTH ORATOR AND SPOKESMAN RAISES $3,000 FOR LINCOLN (Special to the Tribune) NEW ORLEANS, La., Sept. 15.—Col. Roscoe Simmons laid down a new law to his south, as he calls it, on Labor day. He told the thousands to whom he spoke that the race was the south's friend more than the south was the race's friend, and that the race had made the southern white man what he was. Roscoe Simmons is more than ever the inter-racial ambassador. "The New Orleans Item, the big evening daily, gave a fine report of the occasion. The Item said: "Lincoln took the Negro out of slavery, but he could not take slavery out of the Negro.' With these words Colonel Roscoe C. Simmons, Colored leader, crystallized his speech at the Colored celebration of Labor day at Longshoreman's hall, in which he urged the Negro to establish himself in business, and build up his own future, instead of depending always on the white man as an employer. "Some $3000 was contributed to the various Colored locals at the meeting towards the Lincoln league, the biggest contribution being a check for $800 from the Colored longshoremen, and others ranging all the way down to $19.50, contributed by the female domestic workers' union. Two Thousand Attend "Some two thousand Colored men and women crowded into the hall and many were outside, unable to gain admission. The meeting took the place of the usual parade, the Colored labor leaders having deemed this a waste of money. "We are celebrating our Labor day in a quiet and dignified manner,' Albert Workman, president of the Longshoremen, told the audience. 'We are showing our neighbors that we can run our own affairs without fuss for the first time. There is not a single policeman here to maintain order." "His statement seemed to be correct, no evidence of any police being on hand, despite the proportions of the crowd, which remained unusually orderly. "The program started at 11 a. m. and lasted right through to the evening, when Roscoe Simmons, the orator of the day, rose till after 6 p. m. It included songs by the Colored choirs, prayer by Rev. Joseph Moorehead and speeches by T. P. Woodland, Sylvester Pete, L. D. Wilson, W. J. Harris and Vincent Palao. "I am what God made me and in His own image,' said Roscoe Simmons in his address in part. 'And I am of the opinion that God did not make any man in his image to be another man's slave. "Biots Do Not Disturb" "Riots do not disturb me, belching guns do not disturb me, and I have my hand in God's hand and I am ready to go. I am making the same speech here that I made in Chicago. "I hear people talking about race problems. There is no race problem. The only problem is that of treating your neighbor decently." The speaker went on to compare conditions under which the Negro lived fifty years ago with conditions prevailing today, in which he endeavored to point out the progress that had been made, and winding up with an allegorical allusion. "Today," he said, I write my name in the stars. "This is your country, you have nowhere else to go," said he, after speaking of the suggestions of Negroes leaving the country. "We were born here, and many a white Ameri can was not. Negro Southern Man's Friend "My name is in the constitution and no man can rub it out, and I say to the American white man, "In trying to undo myself, you undo yourself." The Negro is said to be the southern white man's friend. He is more than that. He is his only friend. It is the Negro that has made the southern white man.' "The speaker went on to urge the ARIZONA'S GREATEST WEEKLY ns Monda ld's Greatest Or World's Greatest Orator M. H. COL. ROSCOE CONKLING SIMMONS Phoenix will be honored with the presence of Col.

Mr. Victor left Thursday for the coast, While Mrs. Clandell and Mr. Gordon departed for the Fort. A Mr. Caldwell of Guthrie, Okla., is a new arrival in the city. Mrs. Dorcey left last week for Fort Huachuca, where she will reside temporarily. A delightful party was held Sunday, August 31, on Youngblood Hill by a Negroes to combine their resources and establish themselves in business. "What law is there,' he asked, 'that prevents you from having a store at the corner there, or from running the biggest millinery on Rampart street? "Stand not for yourself, but for your children. That is where the white man leads you. The white man's idea is to leave his children a little better off than himself; the Negro wants to live old enough to have his children support him. "Patronize Other Negroes" "Combine your resources. When you need a physician call a Negro physician and enable Negroes to furnish their children with a better education. Doctors don't know a third of their business, anyhow, and if some one is to practice on you, why not let a Negro do it?"

(Muskegon, Michigan, Chronicle) But the big question before us is whether or not the emancipation of the Negro from slavery of ignorance and superstition and dependence; the second emancipation now in progress; may not aggravate the problem of race antagonism, rather than allay it. NO DISCRIMINATION. (Rochester, N. Y., Herald) Back of this practical license of lawless whites to misuse Negroes of whatever character and worth, and underneath this pusillanimous conduct of the police, lies the indifference of supposedly good citizens to the sanctity of laws and of private rights. If patriotic and law-loving Americans of white blood were alert and insistent in their demand that there be no discrimination by the courts and the officers of the law between white of fenders and black; there would presently be an end of race riots and race animosities. Governor of Texas Would Send "Northener" Back With a Broken Jaw FORT WORTH, Texas, Sept. 15. Governor W. P. Hobby of Texas, speaking before the convention of Kiwanis clubs here, again declared himself in favor of intervention by the United States in Mexico. "The American army was used on the other side of the Atlantic to force Germany to honor the American flag," Governor Hobby said, "and it is equally imperative that it should be used for the purpose of forcing other people to respect it on this side of the ocean." While not mentioning his name, Governor Hobby touched on the recent attack on John A. Shillady of New York, secretary of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, at Austin. "I believe in Texas for Texans only and just as strongly do I believe that Texas should say how the affairs of the state should be conducted," the governor said. "And I believe in sending any narrow-brained, double-chin reformer who comes here with the end in view of stirring up racial content back to the north, where he came from, with a broken jaw, if necessary." Mr. and Mrs. Pat Rivers returned last week from an overland trip to Alpine, Texas. They made the entire trip in their Ford machine. Saturday evening, Sept. 6, Mrs. Frank Smith gave a delightful surprise party in honor of Mr. Frank Smith's 'steenth birthday. It was pleasantly arranged by Mrs. Smith and proved a genuine surprise to her husband. He received many beautiful and useful presents. But that was not all he received, for we noticed he ate his meals standing the next day. School opened in Ray last Monday. All the children were on hand and a large enrollment is reported. Mr. D. N. McCoy of Phoenix was a Ray visitor last week. While here he was the house guest of Mr. and Mrs. Forrest Burney. Rev. S. E. Newell of Tucson was a visitor in the city last week. He was here in the interest of the Masonic fraternity. The 25th Infantry ball team did not visit Ray as expected and at the last minute the game was called off. Mr. Frank McDonald left last week for Phoenix. Mr. James Coleman accompanied Rev. Newell to Hayden last Saturday. RAY Miss Minnie Wilhite, a sister of Mrs. Walter McKelvy, left last week for Waco, Texas, wheer she has accepted a position as teacher in the city schools. Messrs, F. Smith, James Coleman and E. A. Henderson motored to Phoenix on the 12th to attend the boxing match between O'Neil and Williams. They returned the next day, sad and distressed. Little Genevieve Lewis celebrated her sixth birthday on the 11th of this month. She had a dainty little party and ice cream and cake were served in abundance to the little friends who attended. All had a jolly good time. Mr. E. A. Henderson left Monday for Mesa, Ariz., where he will reside permanently. He will be joined later by Mrs. Henderson and daughter. Mrs. F. Smith has been suffering with neuralgia the past few days. THE GATHERING STORM (Binghampton, N. Y., Republican) The storm which is about to break has been gathering for years. Its clouds have been made the blacker by every lynching, by every unlawful execution of sentence, by every slight heaped upon the Colored race. One hundred and twenty-one women teachers in the public schools in Yakima, Wash., have so far been able, with the help of City Superintendent, Davis, to find only eleven suitable rooms for rent. The situation is causing the school authorities embarrassment, as the opening of school is only about a week distant. WHAT A SOCIALIST THINKS IS PROPER REMEDY FOR AN EVIL WHAT A SOCIALIST THINKS IS PROPER REMEDY FOR AN EVIL The Negro is a Republican. He has been a Republican for fifty years. He is a Republican because his father was a Republican. He is a Republican because Abraham Lincoln was a Republican. He is a Republican for what the Republican party once stood for. But awake, old black brother Republicans! The Republicans have been rioting on you for several weeks. You received no protection in Washington, D. C., even though the District of Columbia is governed by Congress, and both the senate and the house of representatives are made up of Republicans. In Chicago, the only protection you got came from yourself, and yet Chicago is a Republican city; it has a Republican mayor, William Hale Thompson. The state of Illinois, in which Chicago is situated, has a Republican governor. The city council of Chicago is Republican. The state legislature of Illinois is also Republican. The grand jury in Chicago, which indicted 54 Negroes before indicting any white man, was a Republican grand jury. The district attorney who presented these cases against the 54 Negroes was a Republican district attorney. The police who arrested Negroes (and shut their eyes when they came to white rioters) were Republican policemen. The Chicago Tribune, the leading mouthpiece of the Republican party of the United States, has been as bitter in its attacks on the Negroes during the riot as the Atlanta Constitution. Compared with the New York World, a Democratic mouthpiece, the Tribune sinks into innocuous desuetude. Of course, all these papers, juries, mayors and governors are farces when compared with the Socialist groups. There is not a Socialist or Industrial Worker of the World paper which sanctions riots. There is no inclination at all to cater to the Negroes, either because the bulk of the Socialist party, and the Industrial Workers of the World is white. But they understand the true cause of the riots. They are not deceived by this cry of race prejudice. They know quite well that the whites will suffer as much as the blacks from what has happened. They understand that the packing interests and the capitalists of the country want to keep the white and black dogs fighting over a bone in order that they (the capitalists) may get away with the bone. The employers will beat down, mob and starve white working men and women just as readily as they will black men and women. No talk of patriotism will deter them from their purpose. Their flag is not the red, white and blue Their flag is a yellow flag; it represents gold. Gold is also the flag of the Republican party. But Negroes are workers. They are not capitalists and-employers. They have nothing in common with the Republican party. They must get out of the Republican party and get into the party which represents, them—which represents the workers. That is the Socialist party. So get in it!—The Messenger for September. RACE NEWSPAPERS. Unfortunately there is a more or less incendiary Negro press in the North. These papers are sold largely because they continually harp on the alleged wrongs committed against Negroes, and because they are constantly appealing to race consciousness. They collect the most lurid stories from every quarter which when they are read and believed, are bound to stir up bitter animosities and resentments among the Negroes. They are less newspapers than race propaganda sheets. These papers and leaders, encourage by Northern Negroes, who have political, social and financial ends to gain, keep a great element of the Negro race in a constant attitude of hostility toward their white neighbors. It is understood that the appoint ment of Kijuro Shidehara as Japanese ambassador to the United States will be gazetted early this month. Largest Circulation of any Race Journal in the Southwest. 5 Cents a Copy; $2 a Year h School PRESIDENT WILSON GETS IN BAD WITH SOUTHERN DEMOCRATS Following is an extract from President Wilson's speech to a gathering of Colored people in a southern town. The daily papers of that city severely criticised the president for his remarks, claiming that he was "putting the devil in the Negro's head." He spoke as follows: "I have always known that the Negro has been unjustly and unfairly dealt with; your people have exhibited a degree of loyalty and patriotism that should command the admiration of the whole nation. In the present conflict your race has rallied to the nation's call, and if there has been any evidence of slackerism manifested by Negroes the same has not reached Washington. "Great principles of righteousness are won by hard fighting and they are attained by slow degrees. With thousands of your sons in this conflict you must expect nothing less than the enjoyment of full citizenship rights—the same as are enjoyed by every other citizen." REAL FACTS ABOUT THAT KNOVILLE FIGHT (By Associated Negro Press.) KNOXVILLE, Tenn., Sept. 9.—Law and order prevails here after forty-eight hours of mob rule, race riots and martial law. The troops were withdrawn from patrol duty late this afternoon, two companies being sent to their home stations, Memphis and Union City. The Knoxville company of infantry is bivouaced in the Market Square tonight, while one machine gun squad guards the entrance to the city from the Negro section. The armored trucks, equipped with machine guns, are stationed uptown with troops ready for a possible call. The force of special deputies sworn in last night is again on duty tonight. The police department's revised casualty list shows that only two persons are known to have been killed. Lieut. James W. P. Payne, of Providence, Ky., and a Negro. A court of inquiry held today developed that the lieutenant was shot by a Negro sniper and fell in the path of his machine gun fire and was not accidentally slain by the fire of his own men as had first been reported. The list of wounded is growing steadily as new reports come in. It is known that more than twenty persons have been seriously injured and four of them may die. Judge T. A. R. Nelson declares that the names of fifty ring-leaders of the mob of Saturday night have been secured and the grand jury will be asked to indict them when it meets Wednesday to pass on the charges against Maurice Mayes, the Negro who is charged with killing Mrs. Bertie Lindsey a white woman, who started the riot. Only small encounters have been reported today. The leading Negroes of the city issued stateemmts today denouncing the murder of Mrs. Lindsey, whose funeral was conducted this afternoon. They also advised the members of their race to stay indoors and not to speak unless spoken to. The exodus of Negroes which started early Sunday morning and continued all day was renewed this morning, lines forming at the ticket offices of the local passenger station, while trains leaving the city carried large numbers of blacks. It is estimated that from 1000 to 1500 Negroes have fled. day, fro mthe Hamilton county jail at Mayes, in a written statement to Chattanooga, emphatically denies any connection with the riot and attempts to prove an alibi, stating where he was during the time of the riot, giving the time and the names of people with whom he conversed. The city is in the midst of a heated political campaign and the Negro was an active worker in behalf of one of the mayoralty candidates. All political meetings scheduled from now until election time have been called off.

It is easy to worry. It is easy to worry when there seems to be something to worry over, and it is just about as easy when there is nothing to worry over. It is so easy that most of us "get the habit" while we are young and keep it up until we reach the haven of rest. And if there is any possible way of doing it, some of us will proceed to worry the very first day we are in our longed-for heaven. It is true that worry carves many deep lines upon our Torcheads, makes us spend many hours of greatest uneasiness, drains our vitality, destroys our cheerfulness, puts an extinguiser upon our joys, makes us less fit for life and an enemy to social good-cheer, and, so far as it can, it jobs heaven of the sun and earth of its song. And yet we cling to it as one of our most cherished possessions. Why do we do it? Probably the principal reason is that we look upon worry as a safeguard against trouble. If we don't worry over things we are sure something dreadful will happen to us. It is worry that protects us from evil, and it is worry that acts as an angel of the Lord encamping round about us. If we didn't worry we couldn't expect to live in peace, and things would surely go wrong. Of course this all sounds very foolish, and it is even more foolish than it sounds; but it is nevertheless true. One of the most striking characteristics of our soldiers during the war was the cheerful spirit which they exhibited. They had difficulties enough and hardships without number, but they steadfastly refused to worry about them. Even in the darkest hours they sang "Pack up your troubles in your old kit bag," and faced the future hopefully. One of the doctors who had charge of a hospital train says that scarcely ever did he hear a groan or a complaint from the men who were suffering the most exorciating agony. When compared with what these brave men endured, how trivial do our little troubles seem! Why not try a substitute for worry? Why not trust? Trust does not remove the possibilities of trouble, but reading, and believing that God cares for us, it decides to let God do the worrying. But, someone says, that is irreverent, as God never worries. Well, then, if God never worries, why should we? He is looking after things and we certainly are not, and if He never worries it does seem foolish for us to do so. Long ago a man of God wrote, "I will trust, and not be afraid." We say, "I will trust," but we seem strangely both to say, "I will not be afraid." To learn this lesson well is to enter a new life, a life of marvelous peace and rest. And the gateway is open always. Christian Guardian SOUTHERN METHODS (By Associated Negro Press) ASHVILLE, N. C., Sept. 9.—A distinct innovation will be introduced at the First Presbyterian church in this city when a room and teachers will be provided for the Colored maids who bring white children to Sunday school. The Rev. Dr. R. F. Campbell, pastor of the church, believes that this plan, although unlike any now in use throughout the country, will meet with the approval of the Colored maids and the congregation urging this change. Heretofore, the Colored maids were forced to wait in the vestibule during the service. - Three men are reported dead as a result of a fire on the battleship New Mexico, flagship of the Pacific fleet, in San Francisco bay late Sunday. It was impossible to confirm the report through naval officers here. Yuma-Somerton Mrs. S. H. Hill, who is now residing in Yuma, extends greeting to her many friends. Yuma's heat has rendered no change in Mrs. Hill's dreams of the old places of Prescott and the sweet faces of Prescott friends. Among the many elaborate social functions given in Mrs. Hill's honor was a party given by Mrs. L. F. Delaney, at the beautiful residence of Mrs. Herndon. Dainty refreshments were served and everyone voted it a joyous affair. Mrs. B. e. Faulkerson, Mrs. W. D. Alexander and Mrs. Estella Hall were other hostesses to affairs complimentary, to Mrs. Hill. Miss Marguerite Vernon entertained the younger set with little Miss Versie James Moore and Mr. Sam Hill as honorees.

Lampasas, Texas By Parlea Springgs Nearly everybody in Lampasas has gone to the cotton fields and will remain until Christmas. Naturally, there is not much doing in a social way. Rev. Ford Mitchell delivered a splendid lecture Sunday night. Rev. J. E. Brown is conducting a revival meeting at Liberty Hill. Down in that section of the country the farmers are producing from one-half to three-quarters of a bale of cotton to the acre. They are paying from $2 to $2.25 per hundred for picking. Among some of the families who left for the cotton fields were: Mrs. Henry Starmis and family, Mrs. Lillie Hamilton and family, Mr. P.

Mr. Marshall Moker departed this life September 2nd, 1919 at 9:30 a. m. at his family residence. The death of this well known citizen takes away one of Prescott's best men. His nature was always tempered with kindness, generosity and good will toward all. Mr. Moker had been sick for ten years, but he was always patient and bore his illness without a murmur and he passed away without the least struggle. Mr. Moker was born in 1856 in West Virginia. He came to Prescott with his family 25 years ago. He owned considerable real estate and he was one of those men who had the interest of his race at heart. When he came to Prescott 25 years ago there was no Colored church and it was in his house that the first Colored church was organized, the A. M. E. Methodist church. He was a Christian gentleman and believed in supporting the church and its ministers. His home was always the minister's home. In the early days the ministers always found a resting place and something to eat in the Marshall Moker's house. His funeral was held at the family residence and officiated by the pastor of the Methodist church, Rev. J. W. Harvey, assisted by Rev. Newell of the Baptist church. The choir sang his favorite selec. --- NIE QUEEN tions: "Nearer My God to Thee," and "Asleep in Jesus." The Worshipful Masters of the two Masonic lodges and their lodges were in charge of the body. He was conveyed to the Citizen's cemetery and laid to rest with Masonic honors to await the final day. He leaves a widow, a daughter, a brother and sister to whom the sympathy of all is extended. PHOENIX The funeral was largely attended by white and Colored. The floral offerings were many and beautiful. "Servant of God, well done, Thy glorious warfare passed The battle fought, the race is won. And then art crowned at last." According to Odessa reports, the Bolshevik barbarities there have exceeded the record in any other place. Several hundred workmen have been shot for refusing to submit to the order for a general mobilization and 200 mercantile seamen have been shot for protesting against the order.

The house was packed and jammed as both boys were quite popular and had numerous supporters. It was a real fight that commenced as soon as the men entered the ring and the crowd was given a "run for its money." Ira became a little careless in the fifth round and Rufus lost no time in taking advantage of the opportunity which this carelessness presented. Result: Ira met a disastrous defeat. Next time it will be different. Just wait and see. IN MEMORIUM The following poem is dedicated by a friend to Mrs. A. G.

Mrs. Elma Scaggs and her son-in-law, Mr. Manning, of 1216 East Madison street, spent several hundred dollars remodeling and decorating the interior of their home. When Mrs. Manning and son returned last week they hardly knew their own home. It remained for Mr. Perry Payne of 64 South 3rd street, to pull a genuine surprise. With him, money is no object, so while his wife and daughter were enjoying the delightful sea breezes in California, he engaged a retinue of expert carpenters and interior decorators who transformed his residence into a veritable palace. Mrs Payne and daughter were so surprised when they stepped into their home, till the smile of satisfaction has not yet worn off.

We received a message this morning stating that a popular young man of this city who recently returned from an institution of learning in Kansas, would lead a fair damsel to hymen's altar this Wednesday night. The young lady in the case is a resident of a smelter city, situated about ninety miles from Phoenix. We were told to keep this information secret until after the ceremony had taken place and every one knows that a newspaper reporter is the last person to reveal a secret. Why, we wouldn't dare publish anything about it until full per mission was granted.

Texas Visitor Mrs. Louise Helm of Galveston Texas, is a visitor in the city. She is the house guest of Mr. and Mrs. Joseph Henderson of 1338 East Madison street. A "Noble" Surprise Last Wednesday evening, September 10, Mrs. Luada Walker planned a novel surprise party in honor of Mr. and Mrs. W. E. Noble's twenty-ninth wedding anniversary. Private notices were sent to all of their friends inviting them to be present Wednesday evening at the A. M. E. church. The Nobles were kept in, darkness, but everyone else knew the object of the meeting. A large crowd gathered and Mr. Phil Green arose to announce the object of the meeting. He began by saying that a report had leaked out about some scandal in which Mrs. Noble was implicated. The meeting, he said, was to clear up the matter before the public and put a stop to those scandalous reports that were going around. Mrs. Noble's eyes filled with tears and her head dropped as though something awful was about to be revealed. She is the lady who writes the Sense and Nonsense articles for the Tribune, and she reasoned that someone had excepted to her writings and was seeking revenge. Mr. Noble was as much in the dark as his wife, but he was too much of a man to cry, so he got "all het up" and deep furrows were seen to form on his brow. Mr. Phil . Green continued his speech in a round-about way, paying no attention to the discomfiture of the Nobles, finally ending his speech with these words: "The scandal is this! A report is current that Mr. and Mrs. Noble have been married twenty nine years and we are assembled here to celebrate their wedding anniversary." You should have seen the look of relief that came over their faces and their change from anxiety to genuine surprise. The guests all brought a penny for each year of their marriage and these with other compliments were showered upon them. Ice cream and cake and other delicacies were then brought in and all enjoyed a sumptuous spread. It was the most complete surprise party ever given and no small amount of credit is due Mrs. Luada Walker for her skill in managing the affair. The Nobles, who reside at 27 South 4th avenue, are still wondering how it all happened. Hayden Visitor Miss Mary Lewis of Hayden, Ariz. is here visiting her aunt, Mrs. Joseph Henderson of 1338 East Madison street. Mrs. Henderson is confined to her home suffering with a slight illness. Visitor From Aio Visitor From Ajo Mr. George Brown of Ajo was a visitor in the city last week. He came over to see his family and attend the fight in which, his son-in-law, Ira O'Neil, was one of the principals. Florence Visitor Mr. Alfred Hart of Florence was a business visitor in the city a few days this week. Rev. Solly III Rev. Wm. Silly of 607 East Jefferson street, who returned last week from several weeks' sojourn in the Globe-Miami district, where he has been preaching to the people, is confined to his home suffering with a slight illness.

It's easy to say, "I saw your ad in the Tribune," and the remark will work wonders for you and the Tribune, too. Get the habit. It's great. Rev. J. A. Wimberley, pastor of the A. M. E. church at Mesa, left this week for Denver to attend the annual conference. Tempe Visitors Mr. and Mrs. J. A. Johnson and Mrs. Maggie Thomas of Tempe were Sunday visitors to this city. Colored Undertaker Phoenix will have a Colored undertaker this winter. He has filed application for a license and will open an establishment as soon as the permit is issued. What's the matter with Phoenix? She is ALL right. Who's all right? PHOENIX! Colored Druggist Needed Will some one please tell us why there is not a drug store in this city owned by a Colored man? A flood of dollars awaits the man who will open such an establishment. Besides the 2,000 Colored patrons, he would draw double that number from the Caucasians, Indians and Spanish people. Where is the man who has the training, ability and NERVE enough to make the venture? Echo answers: WHERE? 'TIL THE COWS COME. (Tuscaloosa, Ala., Times' Gazette) Governors may command, essayists may moralize, expounders of abstract law and principle may theorize until the cows come home, but the people of the South know that if the absolute principle of death forthwith is relaxed in the least for certain crimes, this country would be uninhabitable, peopled in part by prowling beats, and no man would dare leave his home a moment unprotected. The Price of Stock in the Arizona- Globe Copper Company Will Soon Be Advanced____ The Price of Stock in the Arizona- Globe Copper Company Will Soon Be Advanced____ We are advising stockholders, who have examined the mine and expressed a desire to increase their holdings at the present price, to BUY NOW. Consider this:Stock in this Company gives you an interest in a mine not a prospect. The main shaft is down nearly 500 feet, all in ore, and about 600 feet of drifting has been done, also in ore. Approximately 50,000 tons of ore, averaging about 4 per cent copper with gold and silver values, is already in sight. Work is progressing rapidly and new ore of a high grade is being exposed in the sinking of the shaft. Arrangements have been made with the Gibson mine to handle our ore until our own mill is installed and shipment of ore will commence within two weeks. One of the stockholders in this Company states that he considers this the best opportunity for investment offered the people of Arizona since the sale four years ago of United Verde Extension at 25 cents per share. United Verde Extension is now worth $45.00 per share—ARIZONA-GLOBE offers a like OPPORTUNITY for LARGE RETURNS. Recent development at the mine and the fact that the allotment of 25-cent stock is going rapidly means prompt action if you want stock at 25 cents.

As to the Negro question per se, it will continue to be a grave menace so long as the Fourteenth and Fifteenth Amendments to the Constitution are flouted in a large section of the country. Hard as it may be, there is apparently no choice for the States which have reason to fear Negro domination, between submitting to a reduction of their representation in Congress, by establishing qualifications for the franchise which would bar the illiterate whites as well as most of the Negroes, and permitting the blacks to exercise the right of suffrage indiscriminately.

The interests of life and property of everything dependent upon orderly government, demand that the authorities act fearlessly, impartially, and with whatever force is necessary.

A. Gilmove, the pastor. The day marked the completion of his first year as pastor of the Baptist church in Phoenix and the whole affair was a fitting tribute to the man, who by his upright, intelligent, christian leadership, has brought the membership of this church up to the high standard where it now ranks second to none in the state of Arizona. .... Some of the papers that were read at this meeting are such as will merit consideration of all thinking people and we reproduce a number of them in this issue for the benefit of all who were unable to be present and hear them read. Following are a few of the best: (By Mrs. Wm. Shannon.) We know that the church represents Christ's body, and each individual who is a member of this body, is a soul entrusted by Christ to the church to protect and develop and prepare for heaven. The church, therefore, is bound to furnish the best possible public instruction in the Gospel; to exercise a tender, loving watch care over the member and to use the uttermost diligence and effort for his enlightenment, sanctification and usefulness, with a view to present him at last, lect in Christ Jesus." the church or otherwise violates or neglects church covenants and obligations, it is the right as well as the duty of the church to place him under the discipline and deal with him according to the laws which Christ has given in the New Testament. Upon sufficient proof of guilt, the church may admonish him; may, for a reasonable time, suspend him from church privileges, or it may withdraw the hand of fellowship from him. Unless the church do this, it cannot hope to present its members "Perfect in Him at Last." (By Mrs. Estelle Smith.) The church, while it labors according to its ability in its own sphere for these objects, should also give its countenance and encouragement, its sympathies and prayers to every true Christian disciple and Christian church, of whatever denomination, in their efforts for the universal spread of the Redeemer's Kingdom. It should encourage and aid the work of missions, Bible distribution, Sabbath schools and the like, to the extent of its ability. It should also give influence in favor of all consistent attempts to suppress evil of every kind and in every possible way show itself the friend and patron of all virtue—the enemy and oppressor of all sin. But, we must not love our brethren better than we love Christ. Let every one who professes to love Christ, endeavor to maintain a spirit of humility and meekness, being gentle and kind to all, never accusing, ever forgiving; by careful study of the Holy Spirit, seeking to know what the Divine Truth teaches, and what the will of God is; allowing no human influence to prevent a strict obedience to God's word in all things. We believe the scripture teaches that a visible church of Christ is a congregation of baptised believers, associated by covenant in faith and fellowship of the Gospel, observing the ordinance of Christ, governed by His laws and exercising the gifts, rights and privileges invested in them by His word. And its only scriptural officers are, pastors and deacons, whose qualifications, claims and duties are defined in the epistles of Timothy and Titus. The church must care for and keep itself as the body of Christ and pillow of the truth, in a condition which shall answer its holy design. It must preserve its character, pure and unspotted, putting away from it all iniquity and sin. It must preserve such order and exercise such discreet and faithful course of discipline as will maintain vigor, activity and efficiency in the body. It must shun all alliances of wickedness and let its unequivocal testimony always be bodily and distinctly on the side of righteousness and truth, and against all wrong and evil. It is God who hath delivered us from the power of darkness and transplanted us into the Kingdom of His Dear Son Jesus. This is what makes us the sons of God. We are not sons by nature, being born again, not of corruptible seed, but incorruptible by the word of God, which liveth and abideth forever. Our duty is to clear away every stubble of pride, prejudice, self-conceit and the underbrush of fruitless culture; then, in the rich soil of faith, receive the word of God. It is the duty of the church to itself to stand for right because it is right. By so doing, we shall be able of save both by precept and example through His blessed word which is the Bible—the book of all books, the perfect treasure of heavenly instructions. It has God as its author, salvation for its end and Truth without mixture or error, for its contents, which reveal the principles by which God will judge us. It is and will remain until the end of the world, the true centre of Christian union and the Supreme Standard by which all human conduct, creeds and opinions should be tried. The church owes many and important duties to the impenient world. It is for the benefit of unregenerate men it is maintained, as the salt of the earth. It should carefully and constantly furnish such opportunities and methods of religious instruction for children and the young, as shall by the blessing of God, fortify them against the temptation of error and sin. Imbue their mind with religious sentiment, and secure their salvation. It should seek by the force of its Godly examples and the influence of its pious spirit, to pervade and sanctify all departments of society. Civil laws and social institutions should feel the power of its salutary energy, and the best welfare of humanity be secured. It should also, and especially, labor to give the Gospel to every creature, that whosoever believeth may be saved. The word efficiency has become the watchword in nearly every vocation in life. It has become the one general qualification necessary for every individual who may seek employment in any of the gainful pursuits as well as the professional activities of life. When a young man or woman makes application for a position in the commercial or professional world or any phase of human activity, it is expected of him or her that he or she is efficient in the line of work sought or contemplated. To be efficient in the business and commercial realms of life is one thing. To be efficient in church work is another. It is a fact to be regretted that there is much greater efficiency shown in the former than in the latter. This is due to the fact that we are placing a higher estimate on the everyday gainful pursuits of life than on church work. We realize at once that unless a man is efficient in his work in the office, in the shop, in the store, or even on the farm, that he will not be a success. Again, in order that a man may become efficient in business, he studies the needs of that particular business in which he may be engaged, and, having discovered these, he seeks by diligent application to bring about the desired results; by the results his efficiency is determined. The importance of efficiency in the things that pertain to our temporal welfare I have briefly outlined, and this brings me to the subject of consecrated church efficiency. Few men have become efficient in any line of industry unless they have taken a deep interest in the work, and feel the need and importance of that work. No one can become efficient in church work unless he will allow himself to be brought so near to his Lord and Savior that he will feel the need and importance of church work. He must be willing to cheerfully consecrate his life—and that does not mean a few spare moments or a few surplus pennies. It means that he must seek to extend the Kingdom of God whenever and wherever an opportunity offers itself. Consecrated church efficiency means more than mere church attendance or a limited financial and moral support; it means vastly more than that. To me it means to consecrate or dedicate my very life—and by that I mean my strength, my talents, my money, my time, and my personal influence to the Glory of God. The standard of efficiency is not attained in church work by spasmodic and irregular habits; but rather by systematic effort, in the spirit of meekness and prayer, applying your God-given talents without ceasing. Study the needs of the church. Do personal work for the salvation of souls. Support and encourage your pastor. Be willing to sacrifice even unto death. These are some of the elements of consecrated church efficiency. A report that oil had been struck in the desert region near Death valley, between Kingston and Shadow mountain, California, caused a rush of prospectors and investigators. Two hundred thousand pounds of gunpowder manufactured in this country, sold to England, then to Russia and finally resold to the United States, turned out to be useless.
