AN ADVERTISEMENT IN THE TRIBUNE IS A DIRECT PERSONAL APPEAL TO COLORED PEOPLE PHOENIX AN A VOL. III. No. 7 BLACKS OF ARKANSAS NOMINATE MEMBER OF RACE FOR GOVERNOR (By Associated Negro Press) LITTLE ROCK, Ark., May 13—J. H. Blunt, of this city, has been nominated by the colored republicans of the state for governor. The nomination came to him after the colored voters had bolted the "regular" convention where only white men were seated as delegates. Blunt declares he will make an active campaign and thus show to the country at large, that the colored republicans are the only bona fide members of the organization in the state of Arkansas. He is the first colored man in the history of the state to run for governor. His chances for election are not flattering. GLOBE--MIAMI (By Mrs. Wm. Young) Mrs. Mattie Alexander, who the past month has been visiting relatives in this city, left last week for Kansas City, Mo. Her little grandson accompanied her home. Rev. H. M. Rivers, pastor of the local A. M. E. church, went to Tucson Sunday, May 9, and held quarterly meeting for Rev. D. R. Jones. The presiding elder, Rev. J. H. Allen, is attending the General Conference in St. Louis, Mo., and so could not be present. Mothers' day was fittingly observed with an appropriate program, all the leading churches of the city taking part. On May 3 members and friends of the A. M. E. church gave a pleasant surprise party in honor of Mrs. Mattie Alexander and all had a delightful time. We regret the loss of Mrs. Alexander from our midst as she was such a congenial woman, always smiling and with nothing but words of encouragement for all. Mr. Bedford Taylor returned from Phoenix, where he went to assist in organizing a Masonic Grand Lodge. He is all smiles because of the fact that he was elected Deputy Grand Master. Mt.

Mrs. Carrie Smith returned last week from a pleasant visit to Flagstaff and Phoenix. Rev. J. B. Bell was a Globe visitor a few days last week. Rev. and Mrs. Wm. Young were dinner guests at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Bedford Taylor last week. Chicken was the piece de resistance and all that goes with it.

(By Associated Negro Press) CHICAGO, Ill., May 13—One of the most significant signs of the times is the development of investment propensities among the people of our group. This has been demonstrated in recent months as never before by Krlebel & Co., investment bankers, a large banking firm of Chicago. As recognition of the possibilities for investment, this well known and reputable firm secured the services of F. V. Babb, one of the most progressive young men of that community, whose reputation for honesty and fair dealing is unquestioned. Mr. Babb entered the office of this institution with zeal and determination, and has had signal success in disposing of listed stocks of the highest grade. So remarkable has been his success in a constructive and efficient manner, that the firm has decided to establish a branch office on the south side, in the neighborhood of the new business center of Indiana avenue and 35th street, promoting Mr. Babb to manager of the new department. This marks one of the most unusual business ventures in which the group has ever shared, and bids fair to stir financial circles from one end of the country to the other. Mr. Babb is recording secretary of the Chicago Business League and a prominent member of the Apomattox club. PRESCOTT (By Mrs. Dora Rose) Dr. and Mrs. Hilbert have purchased a new car and spent Sunday visiting places near the city.

Mr. Joe Blair, who is employed as a butcher in the O. K. Meat Market, had a narrow escape from serious injury last Friday, when a tank filled with boiling tallow blew up.

Mr. Blair had just left the tank house and entered the slaughter house when the explosion occurred. Mrs. R. M. Garet has been confined with rheumatism the past week but is improving. Mrs. Paris Tabron has been on the sick list the past week. Mrs. John C. Garner left last week for Oakland, Calif.

Mr. John Suddoth has been quite ill the past week. Mrs. John Suddoth has been suffering with severe pains in her feet. Colored Teachers In Alabama Outstrip Whites, Is Claim (By Associated Negro Press) MONTGOMERY, Ala., May 13—Colored teachers are outstriping white teachers in this state. At least, that is the conclusion reached by Dr. N. R. Baker, a county superintendent who lives in this city. Dr. Baker has disclosed the fact that there were eighty white teachers and one hundred colored teachers who stood for the recent examinations. "I wonder," said the doctor, "if the white people know that there is more interest Being shown among the colored people in school work than there is among the whites. This condition, continues the doctor, "cannot continue without danger to our civilization. The colored race is furnishing all the teachers needed for themselves and are improving their school work steadily. The whites are neglecting themselves in this particular." A crop of good, self-helpful citizenship is also expected from those backyard gardens.

C., May 13—Cameron Morrison, the democratic candidate for governor, announced himself as bitterly opposed to woman suffrage.

DOUGLAS (By Rev. Major Jones) Complimentary to Mrs. C. H. Ellis, Grand Matron, O. E. S., a delightful reception was held at the Willard hotel last Saturday evening.

Edward Jones, state evangelist, is conducting the meetings and you are cordially invited to attend. Prof. Steel, superintendent of schools, promises better schools for next year. Manual training and music will be given the colored children. Miss Ida Coleman will be retained as teacher and should we secure the services of Prof. Billings of St. Louis, we may expect great things to happen for the good of our children. Prof. Steel stated that he cannot say who will be principal of the colored school next year as they have several applicants for the position. All Douglas is anxious for Prof. Billings to be appointed to the position. Rumor has it that Mr. J. January and Mrs. C. Jackson will be united in the holy bonds of matrimony this week. Well, we shall see what we shall see. Mrs. Gertrude Jones was hostess at a delightful dinner Sunday, May 9. Covers were laid for Rev. and Mrs. Maguinez, Mr. D.

FLURIBUS UNUM 4,000 PEOPLE HEAR EX-PRESIDENT TAFT AT TUSKEGEE ON FOUNDER'S DAY (By Associated Negro Press) TUSKEGEE, Ala., May 13 — The Fourth Annual Founder's Day Exercises were held Tuesday, April 27th. The outstanding feature of the exercises was the address by ex-President William H. Taft, who said in part. "Founder's Day at Tuskegee should be as important in the annals of the America Negro as Washington's birthday is to all Americans. As George Washington's birth, life and acts are valuable as an inspiration and example to all his countrymen, so should the life and achievements of Booker T. Washington be to the men of his race. "Booker T. Washington's longing for an education, his efforts to get books, his wearing to go to Hampton, the privations he had to undergo to achieve his purpose, should be household stories in the families of those whom I am addressing and of every family, white or black. "The general progress made in the south of the Negro race under the inspiration and leadership of the Tuskegee spirit in these days of radical theories, in which the dignity of labor and its usefulness as the basis of character and education are ignored, in these days when men seem to be seeking a life of reward without work, when loyalty to the job is minimized and the only object seems greater pay and less service, the truths that Booker T. Washington taught and exemplified in his own life and which he induced his people to believe and act upon in the wonderful advance which they have made, it is important to uphold for the benefit of our whole community. Such truths and those alone can save us from anarchy and bolshevism." Four thousand heard the address of ex-President Taft. Principal Moton expressed his appreciation of, as well as elation over the interest which the people of this section are showing in the activities of the institution. Colored Waiters Again Coming Into Their Own (By Associated Negro Press) ASHEVILLE, N. C., May 13—The colored waiter is coming into fashion on again in this city. Colored waiters are now being used in the leading restaurants being the first to return to their use. An interesting phase of the situation is that the white waiters are not trying to break away from the colored men, but are working side by side with them. If the experiment proves a success other cafes in the city will adopt the plan, it is said. 52 Gallons of Booze Confiscated By Detectives (By Associated Negro Press) MEMPHIS, Tenn., May 13—Detectives arrested five colored men and seized a fifty-two gallon barrel of whisky last Wednesday night.

Ferguson, president of the Newport News Ship Building and Dry Co., who is also a trustee of Hampton University, declared in a recent speech here, "that colored labor is remarkably like any other kind of labor if given sympathetic and honest treatment. It saves its money in about the same proportion as other people. The difference in habits between the races as to thrift is not nearly so great as you are some times told. The great advantage of the colored men is their desire to own a piece of ground. Those who own ground make for the safety of our institutions and our republic. Leaders you should be. Leaders you will be. Remember you must lead, because you have acquired and pursued the art of thinking. It is important to lead in the art of working and in the art of doing, in industry, and promptness, and in standing by the job and being steadfast—not being put aside by little difficulties. I have the greatest confidence in the future of the colored race." Valley League Is Formed At Meeting Monday Night; Colored Boys Are Members Basetball teams from Glendale, Mesa, Tempe and Cashion and four Phoenix teams to be chosen following an elimination series, will comprise the Salt River Valley Baseball League.

(By Associated Negro Press) DES MOINES, La., May 13—W. W. Lucas, lay delegate from Mississippi startled the M. E. general conference by declaring that "white bishops are not able adequately to administer affairs for the 350,000 Methodist members of the African Methodist church." Delegate Lucas then presented a resolution calling for the election of colored bishops to have jurisdiction over Negro churches. In the course of a long speech Mr. Lucas said in part: "We want a chance to do a man's job in a man's may. The future of the Negro members of the Methodist church lies either in or out of that church. If we are to stay in, give us our rights; if we are to get out, it is our duty all the more to let us learn how to walk alone. There is gravitation towards unity among all the Negro churches. They may teach you how to go about it. It may be necessary for us to go to a racial Methodist church in order to get our rights. We want our own bishops because we have a legitimate right to them." The motion was referred to the committee on Episcopacy. FLAGSTAFF (By Reginald Jackson) Mr. C. J.

Y., May 13 — A young colored ex-officer of the A. E. F., created a mild sensation by a letter that appeared in the Evening Telegram. His name is withheld from publication. The letter reads: "A meeting held at Atlantic City recently brings my attention to certain remarks by the United States chamber of commerce which is a slur on the United States uniform. It was said former colored soldiers from the south getting a bonus would cause them to go into idleness. I think the colored soldier showed his wares. "I believe any man with an honor able discharge from service, regard less of color or rank, should be given a bonus. It's all wen and good to hear men sitting at tables, discussing matters. Where were they? In service or at home reading about our brave boys? Now they fear they might be taxed a few dollars which they made during war times. Any one that begrudges any former service man the bonus is a poor American." Jewish Woman Donates $50 to Aid the Worthy Members of Colored Race (By Associated Negro Press) W.Imington.

A. A. C. P. ENDORSE DOUGLAS' NOMINATION FOR HALL OF FAME (By Associated Negro Press) NEW YORK, N. Y., May 13—The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People through its board of directors, has officially endorsed the nomination of Frederick Douglass to the electors who are to decide upon candidates for the Hall of Fame of New York University. The association summarizes the qualifications of Douglass as follows: Frederick Douglass was born a slave. He achieved his own freedom and education and became a notable public character. He served as a living example of the injustice of slavery and as such gave impetus to the anti-slavery movement. He was a great and effective leader of the Abolitionista and marshalled the free Negroes as their helpers. He was the prime mover in recruiting Negro troops for the war when the nation doubted their worth and did not want them and when the Negroes persisted in offering their services. He became the greatest and most inspiring leader of the million of freed men and represented them with dignity and success. He was until his death interested in all forward movements, and was an early advocate of woman suffrage. He founded a family which still lives and serves one—grandson being a violinist of repute. He was in the great word of the poet "the noblest slave that ever God set free!" SMALLPOX DANGER Six counties reported 29 cases of smallpox to the State Board of Health during April. This indicates a slowly increasing spread of the infection, due, without a doubt, according to the State Board of Health, to the failure of citizens to get vaccinated. During the first three months of the year there were 50 cases reported. Quarantining of cases that may be discovered offers a small measure of protection. Even under the most favorable circumstances, cases frequently wander about infecting numbers with whom they come in contact before the breaking out of the rash makes their predicament apparent. This is particularly true of the slight character of cases that have so far been the rule throughout Arizona. Had these people been vaccinated, they would not have taken the disease themselves and, as a matter of course, would not have been able to have given it to anyone else. So far, smallpox cases have been reported from the following counties: Apache, Gila, Graham, Maricopa, Mohave, Pinal, Santa Cruz, Yavapai and Yuma. No cases have been reported from Cochise, Coconino, Greenlee, Navajo and Pima. The State Board of Health gives notice that there is only one certain safeguard against the discomfort and disfigurement of smallpox, and that is vaccination. As long as the Germans fight among themselves they are less likely to be in a position to fight anybody else. The Prince of Wales is reported to have introduced "cut-out" dancing in London. That ought to prove a simple game for his highness. Phone 3282 Mrs. Della King CALIFORNIA HAT CLEANERS HATS CLEANED AND BLOCKED ACCORDION PLEATING 224 E. Adams St. Phoenix, Ariz. A. R.

GARDNER'S CIGAR STAND Second St. Opposite City Hall THE PHOENIX TRIBUNE-ALWAYS IMPROVING on the subject, "What Is the Church?" He chose for his text, Matthew 16th chapter, 18th verse: "And I say also unto thee, that thou art Peter, and upon this rock I will build my church; and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it." He proved that Jesus Christ was the founder and foundation of the church. The church did not begin in a doctrine or a story, it commenced in a life. Had he not lived, there would have been no Christian people or church. Life is the begetter of life. No man was ever quickened to new life by dead facts. Christ gave His life for His people. The spiritual life that was in Christ produced a new people, doctrine, power and church. After which a new estament church was organized under the name of the Anticho Baptist church of Phoenix. This organization welcomes the investigation of ministers who know the Bible and the Bible way of organizing Baptist churches. But those who know not and know that they know not, will not be tolerated. The spirit Sunday night was high and our place of service was crowded to capacity. As the people learn where we are, they flock to us. Sinners are still coming, asking for prayer. Our collection for the day totaled $26.10. Rev. C. A. Gilmore, pastor. Home From Texas Mrs. Lucille Williams returned last week from Texas, where she has been the past few months visiting relatives and friends. She reports an enjoyable trip.

The collection for the day was $33.15 and the church pledged $541 to the New World Churen Movement. Next Sunday, May 16, Rev. W. H. Burnell of Ardmore, Okla., will speak for the congregation at this church. Public invited. A few Sundays ago the Phoenix Buffaloes played a seventeen-inning game with the Phoenix Red Sox. The Buffaloes finally went down before the mighty onrush of the Red Sox, the score being 6 to 7. Earl Johnson and Robert Fambrough, two of the strong players with the Buffaloes, say they will regain their honors in the next clash with the Red Sox. Excellent Services Sunday services at the A. M. E. church were well attended and the pastor, Rev. Sanford, delivered two able sermons. Two new members were added to the church and the collection for the day was $47.80.
