RACE WOMAN THEATRICAL MAGNATE Mrs. Lula Williams, Amusement Queen, Owns and Operates Three Play Houses and Other Business. It is a pleasure to note the great progress being made by our women in the business world, and Mrs. Lula Williams, of Tulsa, Oklahoma is an excellent example of the type that is pushing forward. She occupies a front seat along with the foremost business women of the country irrespective of creed or color. She owns and operates three high-class motion picture and vaudeville theatres in three different cities, housed in first-class buildings—she erected and owns at a cost of over $20,000. A white man erected one on Greenwood street opposite the theatre something over a mile her theater something with her ago thinking the colored people would look to his play house. He ought to feel disappointed by this time as the race is standing by Mrs Williams who has a manager in the person of Mr Lewis T (Lind) Brown who is a thorough business man. We will put his judgment against any white man in that line of work don't care where he comes from Mrs Williams was born in Jack nor Tom in the middle name was Cotton. There she graduated from Lane College. She is a beautiful lady, a Christian and stands high in the councils of the M.I. church. She married Mr. Wesley Williams a hustling bustling machine, who operates a large garage. It was he who put the young coloured man in the chaujour trade a few years age when the who' men opposed them. They have one son, Master Willie who is doing fine in school.

The Consolidated And The Change of Chicago books the acts and companies playing the landlands and one thinks he is on the stroll when he attends these theatres All the big acts and companies play these houses Their entertainments are clean and classy Management One would ask how does Mrs Williams manage these houses and her other business out ripples. To use her exact words "that's easy." In Muskogee I have a local manager, Mr. J W Brown who has been a real performer for several years. In Okmulgee, my brother Mr Dinesen Cotton is local manager and my general manager Louis T Brown with headquarters at Tulsa, has the management of No. 1 and the general supervision of all my shows. He visits my other theatres from time to time when he finds it is necessary to put a little more "peep" into the business. The booking of acts companies and lectures for all the houses is all done from the office of my general manager at Tulsa. Yes, we very often book independent acts and companies." "This enterprise is looked after by my sister, Mrs. Itobertson, my son, Willie and Mrs. M. M. Brown, who is my bookkeeper and buyer. Of course there are other assistants, but these three have the burden of responsibility." "I attend the show regularly, not as owner, but as patron.

MORRIS, FRIEND OF ARKANSAS GOVERNOR REPLIES TO YE EDITOR Noted Baptist Divine Cives Citation of His Bravery---Declares There's as Much Freedom in Arkansas as in Topeka, Kansas. Henry Aikin Nov 17th 1901 Mr Nick Chiles Toronto Kansas Dear Sir, I hope you are on your the fourth and I have to say that it is a bit surprising to read a letter from the edition of a great paper like The Nationaleer and I can say that you are the only man among the many thousands of my acquaintances that has ever intimated that there is a shock of cowardice at touching in me I am not attempting to answer your letter, for the reason that your advice is to how I should approach the governor shows very clearly that you do not know a man when you see him. Our governor is a man and I am well acquainted with him, and have had contact with him and can have as many as I chose to have. My version of the plot will be given at the proper time and in the proper manner. I am not a citizen of Arkansas by the grace of my man and am as tree to speak and act in Idaho, as you are in Topokia. I am to make an address this week, and in all probability the governor will be present, and that you may know how much of a coward I am. I am outlining you a paragraph of that speech. Very truly yours, B. C. MORRIS Under the head, The Hope of the Nation' is the paragraph referred to by Dr Morris as showing his bravery and how freely he expresses himself in his state. It reads: 'The hope of the nation lies in the spread of Christianity.' I mean that Christianity which has its foundation in the regeneration of man, for many of the normal Christians, who merely hold membership in the churches are as vile as men can be, and will resort to lawlessness as quickly as will the uninitiated. But real devout Christian leaders in all the denominations and in all the races have sprung to their feet, and mean to occupy front lines in all world con- Rev B C Morris, Pres Nat Baptist Convention, Helen Aikawa Dear Sir, In answer to your letter of Nov 17th, also containing marked paragraphs of your thirty-seventh annual address to the Baptist State Convention of Arkansas Nov 19th Not stating the place of meeting we take for granted it was not held at Helena where one hundred men of our race were tried and convicted in seven minutes and sentenced to death. Helena should have been the place where indignation meetings and resolutions should have been passed denouncing the rage on justice. You say you are surprised at my charging you with cowardice and toadism, a thing that thousands of others who know you have never charged you with which is because they are probably like yourself "wait for the proper time" to speak, and then apologize and cry because some misguided Negro who has been cowed, cheated, roiled and deprived of an education by the crackers of your section happens to commit a crime as is shown in a paragraph of your speech. If you be Morris and the thousands you speak of would have joined together in the name of the Lord and justice and right and took on the courage of Joshua spoke out loud from the house tops, prejudice outraging, laughing and burning of human beings would have been stopped long ago You know of hundreds of instances from information given you of white men living in open adultery with colored women and rearing families by them and yet you and that "thousand of other" braves "who know you" allow it to go on without a word of protest and in their own congregation too. Colored men have been lauched for morally being charged with looking at a white woman and you and your "thousands of others" have been dealt as lambs being led to slaughter. You must your version of the riot will be given at the protest time in the protest manner. When will that be, after the man have told the penalty with their heed The Saxon had not time to do home alone. Whoever the next right then and there on the spot the Saxon did not tell the not channels. He will look at a movie or custom but the man out here. This colored film to attend by the what and convert by the same way. It was the time for you and the troops who know of your bravery who come. Up to this time we have not on the head of anything and at home by you or upon your adversary. You at not a citizen of Valais by the grade of white, white and can express yourself as a trot and not in the same manner as I can in Touchea. Now may or Mr. Miles that statement alone put you in the imaginary closet. When you get on to yourself where you can whisper your denunciation of the Southern white man's cruelty to the race and you can see none of that race in car shot than you imagine that you go in Touchea or Bost in then you go and act as you please as it will both nothing. If you will get the governor of Arkansas with whom you are so familiar to say that a colored different rights in Helena of anywhere in that state are useless to act and expose his shows as they are in Topeka or elsewhere in Kansas I will donate to the ill-armed ones of your church in YOU will go into the public and none that does who are committing the or and rejoice award for the or institution of these will outlast The reason you in stay in Arkansas and be head of the State was the Constitution is because you talk in favor of the South in whites and against your race. All that you have said comes with these outrages is that you bad. The Lord knows best. Then you promise more to the outnumber blacks for protecting themselves against these white devils who start the trouble. If you supposed borders would stand up for justice and right and organized to stamp out print committed to white men against black men and women you would other make Arkansas and the South better or be chapel of ourself I will guarantee to you will come to Jamaica to give you a place to speak and be free to express yourself on any question the nominee at North and the person connected to that white man black. Can you do much of no matter in any place in that state?" If so I would like to come down and talk as I would be able to cause the countrys Southern whites a little unhappy by unhollowing his many sins the committed man the people. Prove to him that he is as cowardly as a cow for everything done against the explored people and that you and your thousands of brave stand for it. You have been 17 years president of the State Baptist Convention. Point to one public utterance or ad also offered by you that has been taken seriously by either you thus had its effect and I will tip my but to you. Now brother Morris the age has suffered long under your misguidance and will not follow you any longer. There must come another Moses whose good works the people can see and follow. Everybody below a toward as well as a pretender and grandstander. There is enough good ELISHA SCOTT HEADS A NEW ENTERPRISE Looking forward to the commercial advancement of the race in this city as well as to assist in the purchase of homes and farm lands, the Western Reserve Realty Co., has been organized and is now being fostered by prominent members of the race in this city and county.

Their list contains a large number of farms residence, lots etc., for sale or trade. Other features aside from real estate have been added and consist of a loan department where short loans with a low rate of interest can be made, the insurance department with both life, accident and fire insurance, hiring agents for reliable old line companies which seek and treat Negro police holders the same as any other nationality. Owing to the great risk on Negro property on ac COUNT OF MOB VIOLENCE SOME COMPANIES refuse to furnish our property for its full value hence this feature has been added.

On taking leave for points in Illinois on business President and Attorney Smith was approached by a reporter for an expression in regard to the new institution. He said, in this period of Reconstruction the Negro must begin to realize that his only salvation of recognition is the building of an industrial enterprise, which will later afford opportunities to the young men and women of the race thus showing to the obstruction of determination and ability to unite and corporate in their actions, which are essential to the race and its progress and national with which they are showing of the Western region. He said it has come to their realization so as it has come to their realization that they want among my people. UNITED STATES. Topeka, Kans Nov 18 1919 Hon Attorney General Palmer, Department of Justice, Washington, D. C Dear Sir: We wish to call your attention to the outrageous trial of colored men, now in progress at Helena, Phillips County Arkansas. These trials have been in progress during the past two weeks, and it would seem the trial judge and all the officers on behalf of the state are reporting to Kangaroo methods to secure contictions, which require only seven to thirty minutes to try a man for his life. We wish to call your attention to Article Six of the Federal Constitution, which is as follows. "In all criminal prosecutions, the accused shall enjoy the right to a precedent trial, by an impartial jury of the state and district wherein the crime shall have been committed which district shall have been previously ascertained by law, and to be informed of the nature and cause of the accusation against him, to have compulsory process for obtaining witnesses in his own behalf and to have assistance of counsel for his defense." This being true, we respectfully ask you to invoke the powers of the department of justice in this matter. If after careful investigation you find these accusations to be true, relative to the methods being resorted to in these cases, to take such action in the premises as you shall deem ample and proper to guarantee to them a fair trial. It is believed that part of the men who compose the jury were members of the mob that started the riot. Colored men are not drawn as jurors in Arkansas, therefore, these men could not be tried by men of their peers, as all southern white men believe them disqualified. Education, wealth and good citizenship count for naught when it comes to the colored race in that state. The low element of whites have resorted to this method of court procedure not only to rob the colored race of their rights but of their property. The organization there which is complained of was formed for the purpose of keeping Cotton Growers Association from rebbling the colored planters of their earnings. All that our society the Kansas Defense Society, asks is fair play. We cannot send Council there to defend them, because it would be worth their lives where the officers of the law are lax and make no pretence to give protection to their colored citizens. We therefore respectfully request that your department take the matter up. Respectfully submitted NICK CHILDS, Editor. Topeka Plaindealer and President of Kansas Defense Society NOTICE (No 32766) The tate of Kansas to R F Green, if living, and if deceased then in the alternative, to the unknown heirs, executors, administrators, devises, trustees and assigns of said R F Green, defendant.

(Attent:) Mary E. Chapin, Clerk District Court, Shawnee County, Kansas. By Mae B Brewer, Deputy Mr. Frank R. Wilson of Junction City, Missouri, gave us the following article concerning the State Agricultural convention of Colored Farmers which met at the Topeka Industrial Institute from 11th to 18th inclusive. A great session was held. It was very impressive indeed from the writers standpoint of view as well as inspiring. Reports came in from various districts throughout the state showing the Sunshine and Mother earth are still in the lead to produce great things for the Colored race. The convention brought out this fact, "He who is willing to put forth his energy and shoulder to the wheel can achieve wonderful success which is in store for him. It was a pleasure as well as a mystery to the writer to hear the report of one farmer, selling Four hundred dollars worth of canelope from one-half acre of land; also Col. J. M. Brown of Shawnee County, marketed twenty tons of grapes, approximately realizing Two thousand dollars from his crop. There were other reports equally as great. It was the desire of the convention to erect a hospital on the school campus Dr Ross and Martin of Topeka ably addressed the Farmers Convention on living and sanitary conditions of the race. It was very impressive to the writer to see the class in nurse training under the instruction of Miss Harnds, the class numbering 47. We feel quite assured that this is one of the greatest movements started in Kansas to fulfill this long desired want of giving our young women this particular training. The exhibit of the convention was the greatest the writer has seen from colored people, including art, domestic science, dressmaking, home canning of vegetables, etc. Among those who were awarded Sweep State prizes were: Mrs. L. Wilson of Shawnee County, mother of the writer, and Mrs. D. Alexander. Another phase of the convention brought out the question of equal rights. We were very much uplifted from the fact that the women took a very active part in the convention. Her hand was seen in all departments, some of the best speeches being made by them. In conclusion will speak in behalf of the president of the State Agricultural convention, Prof Bridgeforth, a man of great force and ability; we predict great success for the school under his management. Mr. F. R. Wilson was the guest of Captain Hicks while in Topeka There were a number of afternoon functions last week held in honor of Mrs H. J. Brown of Denver, Colo.

Miss Moore was the recipient of many pleasing gifts in honor of the day and the guests all report a most delightful evening. Mrs. S Cavens and children of Manhattan, Kansas spent Sunday afternoon the guests of her daughter, Mrs K Rann on East Chestnut. Mrs. J. W. Warren, wife of the pastor of A, M.

The splendid athletic relations now existing indeed warrant its continuance. As the two rival rival educational institutions in this section, a great deal of interest is manifested in any well regulated combat, which is produced, either physical, musical or otherwise, lites hoping a continuance of the good spirit and the Turkey day game.
