THE RICHMOND PANET SENATOR HENRY CABOT LODGE PERMANENT CHAIRMAN. Ringing Declaration of Principles--The "Lily-Whites" Seated From Virginia. Colored Delegates Protest in Vain--National Convention Confirms Actions of National Republican Committee. Hon. Henry Lincoln Johnson, Colored Leader from Georgia Wins and is Elected Member of the Republican National Committee. VOLUME XXXVII. NUMBER 39 REPUBLI SENAT Ringing Decl Colored Hon. Hen The Republican National Convention, in session at Chicago has been a object of interest on the part of the entire country. The most disabling factor has been the candidate of Senator Hiram W. Johnson, no leading the fight against President Wilson's League of Nations has brought his recognized mouthpiece, Senator William E. Borah has declared that he and his friends would lift the convention before they could submit to a plank supergence Treaty with the Lodge reservations. THE LILY WHITES WIN Colored people were most interested in the seating of the colored men, led the fight against the lily white Republicans, who excluded colored men from Republican meeting up a white Republican Party in the excuse that they were building up a white Republican Party in the Southland. The colored delegation from Virginia appeared before the Republican National Committee made no head-way, all of the regards being seated. The appeal to the credentials Committee of the Republican National Convention met withiliar treatment. MHROMISE WITH RADICALS The fight between the Wood, Lowe and Johnson factions became bitter, and the fight on the platform rested at one time a split in Partly. At this writing no canoe had been nominated. The grow convulsion that the convention Chicago will name the next President of the United States is being apted as a fact. The new plank denms the treaty and the league denant as submitted by President Johnson and embraces an unqualified lorsement of the Senate in refus to ratify the document. UST ADMIT COLORED MEN. the action of the Republican National Committee in notifying white publicans that colored men must admitted upon a basis of absolute authority in future councils of the city in the Southern States had a tendency to calm the feelings of faithful colored men, although it realized that the machinery would be in the hands of these lilies who would attempt to take advantage of them in future meetings. The disclosures made by Sen Johnson and his friends have led no end of bitterness among leaders. Still that the Convenient will ultimately harmonize and unite in support of the ticket is needed. In Memory. sad and loving memory of my son Rev. William T. Anthony, departed this life on June 11th made no one a last farewell, bid goodbye to none; heavenly gates were open wide viving voice said, "Come! with farewell unspoken gently entered home. LOVING MOTHER, WIFE, AND CHILDREN. s Mary E. Williams, R. N. called to the bedside of her in Savannah. Ca. He is seri WHITE MAN ASSAULTS COLORED GIRL AND GETS LIFETERM (By Joe L. Tinsley.) The trial of Charlie Noe, white who on February 21st lured eleven year old Beatrice Lindsay of this city to a lonely spot in the woods, about one and a half miles from the city, and brutally assaulted her, was brought to a close at Blountville, Town. Friday May 28, after a hard fought legal battle between the de fense and prosecution extending over a period of three days, the de fense trying to save the brute from the electric chair while the prosecution exerted every effort to give him the extreme penalty. Because of the unusual character of the crime and the youth of the victim the trial attracted widespread attention throughout both Virginia and Tennessee among both white and colored. At the preliminary hearing given Noe immediately after his arrest and confinement he was indicted on two counts criminal assault up on an eleven year old colored girl and of having carnal knowledge of a female under twelve years of age. Not because of lack of evidence, but because of a prejudice jury and the fact that a white man must place up on his entire race the odium of raping a Negro girl. Noe was freed of the charge of rape, but was found guilty of the charge in the second count, with a recommendation by death, and was sentenced to life in prisonment by the Hon. Judge D. A that notorious jury of anything but DeVine. The conviction of Noe closes one of the most startling trials ever witted in this section of the country. In hideousness it has no parallel in the criminal history of the county and the fact that the Attorney Gen. Pross, Attorney, O. B. Lowett, and the Judge of the court dealt so speedily, and meted out to the brute his reward for his crime, the people of Tennessee and Virginia will ever cherish the memory of these fearless men. Their actions in dealing with Noe and denouncing his dastardly act has placed these men foremost in the ranks of those who place law, or der, and justice above the plane of hatred and prejudice. The conviction of Charlie Noe is a complete triumph for law-loving and law-abiding citizens who must be protected from the menace of such inhuman criminals. Charlie Noe, twenty-one years old and of sound mind and body, and who bears an unsavory reputation "mong his own people is known to have attempted an outrage upon a member of his own race, but because of the law tide at which his morals flowed (if he had any) choose for his victim a helpless, eleven year old colored child upon which to inflict his horrible and unspeakable crime. But this only adds to the long list of crimes that are being and have been for a long, long time, inflicted upon our people. It establishes another chapter in the criminal history of the white race and disproves the theory that this form of crime is confined to the Negro race. Passing as a car ried man with a wife and sick baby this man Noe, lured this innocent, helpless child away from the protection of home or even the possible as sistance of a stranger or a passerby and wreaked upon her frail body his trendish purpose, the like of which has no precedent in the criminal his tory of the State. The swift action of the Court in handing Née his punishment meets the approval of the entire citizenship of Virginia and Tennessee, white and colored. This Charlie Noes on the twenty first of February in the broad day light approached Little Beatrice Lind (Continued on Fifth Page). WOMEN'S BAPTIST STATE EDUCATIONAL CONVENTION.

SENATOR HENRY CABOT LODGE PERMANENT CHAIRMAN. Ringing Declaration of Principles--The "Lily-Whites" Seated From Virginia. Colored Delegates Protest in Vain--National Convention Confirms Actions of National Republican Committee. Hon. Henry Lincoln Johnson, Colored Leader from Georgia Wins and is Elected Member of the Republican National Committee. VOLUME XXXVII. NUMBER 3' REPUBLI SENAT Ringing Decl Colored Hon. Hen The Republican National Convention, in session at Chicago has been the object of interest on the part of the entire country. The most disliking factor has been the candidate of Senator Hiram W. Johnson, no leading the fight against President Wilson's League of Nations has brought his recognized mouth-piece. Senator William E. Borah has declared that he and his friends would lift the convention before they would submit to a plank suprising Treaty with the Lodge reservations. THE LILY WHITES WIN. Colored people were most interested in the seating of the colored men, who led the fight against the lily-white Republicans, who excluded colored men from Republican meetings up a white Republican Party in the excuse that they were building up a white Republican Party in Southland. The colored delegation from Virginia appeared before a Republican National Committee, made no headway, all of the regals being seated. The appeal to the credentials Committee of the Republican National Convention met with similar treatment. OMHROMISE WITH RADICALS. The fight between the Wood, Lowell and Johnson factions became bitter and the fight on the platform treated at one time a split in Party. At this writing no candidate had been nominated. The growl conviction that the convention Chicago will name the next President of the United States is being accepted as a fact. The new plank demons the treaty and the league consent as submitted by President son and embraces an unqualified endorsement of the Senate in refusal to ratify the document. CST ADMIT COLORED MEN. The action of the Republican National Committee in notifying white publicans that colored men must admitted upon a basis of absoluteality in future councils of the city in the Southern States had a agency to calm the feelings of faithful colored men, although it was realized that the machinery did be in the hands of these illiterate who would attempt to take antage of them in future meetings. The disclosures made by Senator Johnson and his friends have saved no end of bitterness among leaders. Still that the Convenience will ultimately harmonize and unite in support of the ticket is ceded. In Memory. In Memory. sad and loving memory of my son Rev. William T.

LOVING MOTHER, WIFE, AND CHILDREN --- Ms Mary E. Williams, R. N. called to the bedside of her in Savannah, Ga. He is seri WHITE MAN ASSAULTS COLORED GIRL AND GETS LIFETERM (By Joe L. Tinsley.) The trial of Charlie Noe, white who on February 21st lured eleven year old Beatrice Lindey of this city to a lonely spot in the woods, about one and a half miles from the city, and brutally assaulted her, was brought to a close at Blountville, Tenn., Friday May 28, after a hard fought legal battle between the defense and prosecution extending over a period of three days, the defense trying to save the brute from the electric chair while the prosecution exerted every effort to give him the extreme penalty. Because of the unusual character of the crime and the youth of the victim the trial attracted widespread attention throughout both Virginia and Tennessee among both white and colored. At the preliminary hearing given Noe immediately after his arrest and confinement he was indicted on two counts—criminal assault up on an eleven year old colored girl—and of having carnal knowledge of a female under twelve years of age. Not because of lack of evidence, but because of a prejudice jury and the fact that a white man must place up on his entire race the odium of raping a Negro girl, Noe was freed of the charge of rape, but was found guilty of the charge in the second count, with a recommendation by death, and was sentenced to life imprisonment by the Hon. Judge D. A. that notorious jury of anything but DeVine. The conviction of Noe closes one of the most startling trials ever witted in this section of the country. In hideousness it has no parallel in the criminal history of the county and the fact that the Attorney Gen. Pross. Attorney, O. B. Lovett, and the Judge of the court dealt so speedily, firmly, and meted out to the brute his reward for his crime, the people of Tennessee and Virginia will over cherish the memory of these fearless men. Their actions in dealing with Noe and denouncing his dastardly act has placed these men foremost in the ranks of those who place law, or der, and justice above the plane of hatred and prejudice. The conviction of Charlie Noe is a complete triumph for law-loving and law-abiding citizens who must be protected from the menace of such inhuman criminals. Charlie Noe, twenty-one years old and of sound mind and body, and who bears an unsavory reputation "mong his own people is known to have attempted an outrage upon a member of his own race, but because of the law tide at which his morals frowed (if he had any) choose for his victim a helpless, eleven year old colored child upon which to inflict his horrible and unspeakable crime. But this only adds to the long list of crimes that are being and have been for a long, long time, inflicted upon our people. It establishes another chapter in the criminal history of the white race and disproves the theory that this form of crime is confined to the Negro race. Passing as a man ried man with a wife and sick baby this man.

LA FESTA DEL MILITARIO YOU WOULDN'T TRY TO TAME A WILD-CAT Mr. Dodson Warns Against Use of Treacherous, Dangerous Calomel. Calomel salivates! It's mercury. Calomel acts like dynamite on a sluggish liver. When calomel comes into contact with your bile it crashes into it, causing cramping and musca. If you feel bibous, headache, constipated and all knocked out, just go to your drugrist and get a bottle of Dadson's Liver Tone for a few cents which is a harmless vegetable substitute for dangerous calomel. Take a spoonful and if it doesn't start your liver and straighten you up better and quicker than mosty calomel and without making you sick, you just go back and get your money. If you take calomel today you'll be sick and mouseted tomorrow; besides, it may salivate you, while if you take Dodson's Liver Tone you will wake up feeling great, full of ambition and ready for work or play. It's harmless, pleasant and safe to give to children; they like it.

Pilate saith unto him, What is truth? — toioy Bible St. John 18:38 The Nortfolk, Va., Journal and Guide, in its issue of 8th uil. under the caption, "Mr. Mitchell's Views on the Fight Against the Lily Whites' proceeds to use harsh but diplomatic language in connection with our comment relative to the colored men's party recently organized in this State and which culminated in the holding of a colored men's convention in this city. In view of the reputation and standing of the gentlemen, who have successfully guided the course and shaped the destiny of this influential and widely read publication we have been surprised to note its attitude and amazed to read its statements concerning us. Let us see. It gives as its excuse for not quoting any part of our editorial that it was too lengthy for any such use, being oblivious of the fact that we made it lengthy purposely that we might not be misunderstood. The leading editorial in last week's issue of The Richmond Planet was a labored effort on the part of Editor John Mitchell, Jr., to analyse and pass an opinion upon the recent The publican convention held in that city. Evidently Mr. Mitchell did not attempt to recite the facts in connection with the convention as nothing that appeared in his editorial was in accord with the facts and the truth. Therefore we give him the benefit of our belief that he did not attempt to recite the facts. This brought to our mind, the famous query of Pontius Pilate, "What is truth?" It continues: The distinguished editor of The Planet did, however, devote himself industriously to the task of misrepresenting the facts. His statement that the movement was "under the tiltage and instruction of the Lincoln League is erroneous. Likewise is his statement that Dr. D. A. Ferguson, treasurer of the State Committee was a delegate to the meeting of the Lincoln League held in Chicago in February. And he was also in error in insinuating that Wood or Johnson money is financing the colored Republican movement. But it is useless to go on quoting where in Mr. Mitchell is in error, as we would have to quote the whole editorial which consumed a column and a half space. The Associated Negro Press of Chicago was our authority for the state moment that Dr. D. A. Ferguson attended the meeting of the Lincoln League in that city. He is of age and is amply able to state whether he did or did not attend this meeting. One of the leading officers of the colored convention was our authority for the statement that the gathering was affiliated with the Lincoln League of Chicago. We did not state that either the Wood or Johnson money figured in the affair, but the following interesting information may be read at this time with profit: Chicago, Ill., June 5—The Republican national committee at night session seated all the regular delegates at large and the ten district delegates from Virginia which were elected at the State convention at Ranokoke on March 1. The hearings of the case lasted nearly three hours and the decisions were by unanimous vote because of lack of substantial evidence to substantiate the claims of the contestants. The decision is a victory for National Committeeman C. Bascom Stump. The delegate soated are uninstructed but are presumably for Gov. Lowden. In effect the delegation is an organization victory. The contestants denied seats in the convention were Wood delegates and the contests were instituted under the direction of Frank H. Hitchcock who thus went down to another defeat in the last of the contests to be heard. The settlement of the Virginia contests cleaned the slate and completed the official convention roll National Committeeman Collabaday of the District of Columbia who was accused at the hearing of being for Wood voted against the seating of the Wood delegates. The Wood delegates were nearly all Negroes. In addition to the seating of the Stemp delegates at large and from the ten congressional districts which were voted as a unit, the committee also, by unanimous vote, seated the Stemp or Lowden delegations from the Second district from the Third, o. Richmond district and from the Eighth or Alexandria district, where the contestants were white. With this State ended in disaster the effort of Frank H. Hitchcock, who presided over the steam-roller of 1898 to get a flock of Wood delegates, in the Southern States. Again we voice the query of Pontius Pilate, "What is truth?" We pause to remark that it is admitted that Hen. Frank H. Hitchcock and his associates expended over one trillion dollars in promoting the candidacy of this distinguished soldier.. If political "wheel-horses like Mr. J. R. Wilson of Danville, Va., Attorney J. R. Pollard of Richmond, Va., Attorney J. C. Carter of Danville, Va., Mr. H. H. Price and many others that we might name, including Mr. A. Humbles of Lynchburg, Va., were duped into expending their own mony and that of an unsuspecting public in promoting a candidacy in this State, while every other State was getting its proportion of funds from this political barrel, then we have a very poor opinion of their political acumen and financial judgment. The contest in Virginia was promoted by Hon. Frank H. Hitchcock. If Treasurer Ferguson did not deal with him, who did deal with him? In the words of Pontius Pilate, we again ask the question, "What is truth?" We are frank to admit that we do not see anything wrong in obtaining expense money to legitimately promote the candidacy of such candidates where the expenditures carried with them no sale of principle or party. The Norfolk Journal and Guide says: The Planet editor takes the same position with reference to the basis, or absence of basis, for the colored party members' fight that many "old timers" in various sections of the State are taking. Their disposition is to lie down and accept the situation without a protest. They do not wish to put up a fight to regain a party status, and are willing to be read out of the party upon the lily White's own terms. Is this the truth and if it is, what is truth? In our issue of March 20, 1920, we used the following language ago: So far as we can advise, there is absolutely nothing to do but to fall behind those who are in charge and exert every atom of effort to enable them to secure a hearing at the hands of the leaders of the great National Republican organization. Will the Republican State organization endorse a Republican organization that boldly reads citizens out of the Party upon the ground of race and color? These white men should not be permitted to dodge the issue. Let them endorse the position of Mr. Brady and his friends or let them disavow and repudiate all that they have done. Colored people are having a hard time of it now. They have been eliminated from politics, but the intelligent colored men, with money and property are necessarily demanding a hearing. Thousands of them responded to the country's call to arms and won renown upon a for eign field and all efforts on the para of Negro-haters to stay their progress and check the forward movement will fail. You might as well attempt to dam up James River with a shovel. Let us support this movement for equal recognition and equal privileges inside of the Republican Party. Certainly, we have won the right to recognition. To sulk in our tents and to yield supinely to discrimination would be to prove our incapacity as American citizens. These colored leaders, who are protesting are right. They have made their tasks difficult by their manner of handling the affair, but they are nevertheless entitled to encouragement and support. When the colored people with their influence and their money go properly to the constituted party an authorities and state their cases, we believe that they will be accorded a respectful hearing and that the abuses of which they complain will be remedied. Has either the one or the other of the Editors Young misrepresented us? Will either the one or the other who wrote that editorial have the many courage to admit that their in financial journal misrepresented and wronged us? If they do not admit it, we must necessarily come back to Pilate's query. "What is truth?" The Norfolk Journal and Guide says further: Mr. Mitchell and every intelligent man in the State who knows anything at all about the history of lily whitism in the ranks of the Republican party in the State knows that it has been the instrument of depriving the colored voter illegally of his right to participate in the primaries, causeses, conventions and councils of the party and practically separated him from party identification. Mr. Mitchell also knows that these THE RICHMOND PLANET, RICHMOND, VIRGINIA things were done by trickery, fraud, usurpation and intimidation. Still, Mr. Mitchell would advise colored Republicans to carry their fight to the district and State conventions, which are packed against them. Mr. Mitchell wants the colored Republicans to 'saoe hell with the devil as judge. We took the position that colored men should attend all district conventions and demand their rights, even though they knew that their demands would be denied, that they should have appeared at the Republican State convention at Roanoke and made a similar demand, even though they knew that their claims would be denied. This is, in the language of lawyers "perfecting a case" and securing material' and evidence on which to base an appeal to a higher tribunal. Still, the Norfolk Journal and Guide charged the editor of the Platet with having "a disposition to lie down and accept the situation without a protest." Again we ask the question, What is truth? The following extract confirms the correctness of our conclusion: Chicago, June 5.—In considering the final contests for seats in the National convention, the Republican national committee voted this evening to seat the four "regular" delegates at large from Virginia. The winning delegation headed by Congressman Slemp, national committee from Virginia, was supposed to indorse Governor Lowden for the Republican presidential nomination. The defeated Negro delegates were for Wood. The Negroes charged they were barred from the state and dis trict conventions. The Negroes admitted they made no attempt to attend the state convention and the committee ruled they had failed to present a case. This Norfolk Journal concludes: Editor Mitchell did not attend the recent convention in Richmond. He wrote his opinion of it from hear-say. If he had attended the sessions and observed the caliber and character of men who made up the personnel of the gathering he would not have taken them as a subject of sarcasm and ridicule. No one could have participated in that meeting without coming away with a profound sense of pride in the new birth of Negro manhood that characterized its delications. Only the national Republiq Committee can decide whether these men have a good case, and they are determined to put it up to that or gnation right soon, and until that time it will be well to suspend judgment as to the merits of the cause. In the light of these disclosures, who came nearer to rendering a true statement as to conditions, the editor of this Norfolk journal, who was a part and parcel of this body, or the editor of the Richmond journal, who did not attend the sessions? We did not criticise the meeting itself, but expressed an opinion as to the wisdom of the course these well-meaning even were pursuing. Although they were paying the railroad fares of the delegates to this city and sending prepaid telegrams to every nook and corner of the State, while the board and lodging of those who came were charged up and subsequently paid out of the money raised by the colored people of the State themselves, other States like Georgia where Hon. Henry Lincoln Johnson the able colored leader, admittedly received nine thousand dollars from the campaign managers were "living in clover," so to speak. But Editor P. B. Young states that we are inferior in even instituting that any of the money expended by Hon. Frank H. Hitchcock was expended in Virginia, even though it is positively stated that the contest was instituted at the behests and command of one of the shrewdest political white Republican managers in this country. We accept this brilliant Virginian's statement at its face value with the ringing exclamation, Oh, for a Henry Lincoln Johnson in Virginia! Pilate saith unto him, What is truth? The Republican National Convention acted wisely in selecting Senator Henry Cabot Lodge as both the temporary and the permanent chairman of that record-making body. If he cannot bring order out of confusion then no statesman on earth can do it. We have never understood how there could be any serious disagreement with reference to the League of Nations as presented by President Wilson. The only safe course is to steer clear of entangling alliances as was outlined in the memorable warning by President George Washington. Viewed from any angle, Sonator Hiram W. Johnson was right in his ringing connection. The Wilson coveant as endorsed at Versallie should be repudiated. The distinguished occupant has made the issue. It should be accepted just as he made it without any tendency to evade the issue. If the country wants another four years of Democratic rule and incompetency, it should have it. We have not been able to see that any kind of League of Nations, sailing under a false name and indulging in misleading information will bring any relief to a world that its patrons have wrecked and steeped in a sea of misery and woe. The young girl graduate now occupies the centre of the stage and the admiring young map occupies the centre of the admiring audience. Quit school and marry, young foiks, quit school and have all the trouble over at once and prepare for more trouble. Students who realize that their parents have gone to great expense to educate them and proceed at once to find a way to make money to pay them will be blessed by the good Lord and by every body else. Dying is easy. Living is the hard part of this life. A woman, who doesn't get angry is not a woman. She is an angel. A man, who does the same way 'is, well we don't know what to call him, for he 'is not an angel—he's dead. The Democratic National Convention at San Francisco will endeavor to accomplish a miracle in nominating President Woodrow Wilson with out nominating him. Just how a Republican National Convention could last three days with Hon. Hiram Johnson on the floor and Hon. William J. Bryan in the press gallery is one of the mysteries of the year of 1920. The colored Virginia delegates, who did not get seated at Chicago were disappointed in one respect and satisfied in many others. They said what they wanted to say and they had a good time. Drinking ice water, lemonade and soft drinks in Chicago was a hardship with some of them. The mandate of the Republican National Convention has been handed down. Who will obey it? No one has thought to ask President Wilson who furnished the money for his campaign when he was first elected to the presidency. He was a poor man. PHYLLIS WHEATLEY BRANCH.

Address: BAPTIST WOMEN WIL HOLD SESSIONS AT POCAHONTAS To the Sisterhood of the State and States, our Brotherhood in general and friends, we send forth our urgent appeal in behalf of the financial drive to be put over in the Woman's Baptist State Convention at Pocahontas, Va., June 24. The women have greatly helped in all the Churches in the remarkably successful drive, which culminated in going over the top at Staunton, Va. To help this drive to be a success we had to keep our own rally in the background and said we nothing about our work. We did so willingly and do rejoice in common with the brethren over the great success. But we are coming now in turn with out-stretched hands, asking for your service for the same good cause. To this end we beseech the brethren to help those women who have helped them, encourage those who are already organized into Educational Circles, Missionary Societies, Bands, and also to organize the women where they are not organized. We appeal to the ministers to lend a helping hand as pastors. We are asking that every effort be put forth to bring up as large amounts as possible from every Church. This is not to rival the brethren, but to supplement the princely sum already gathered by them for a cause greatly in need of reinforcement in the behalf of the youth of our race. Encourage the feebled efforts as well as the more efficient workers. Help the women to get together. We are asking the brethren to send us a collection for our work and send the same to Mrs. L. W. Tyrrell, Box 399, Pocahontas, Va. by June 23. The Hayes Memorial Building has been repaired, renovated and painted at a cost of several thousand dollars. We in Convention assembled last year pledged to pay for this work, and it must be paid for in June. I therefore call upon you women everywhere to get to work at once, work fast and long, do the very best you can at this time for the time is short. The District Chairmen are urged to arouse the workers in their respective districts to get the Circles to send up as large amounts as possible. We are expecting one thousand dollars from each district, including the Circles in the district. The Southern District, Mrs. Janie Galvin, Chairman will report one thousand dollars. Central District, Mrs. Rosa Loyings, Chairman will report one thousand dollars June 24. Southwestern District, Mrs. C. M. Bezota, Chairman, one thousand dollars. Northern District, Mrs. D. Higginbotham, Chairman will answer one thousand dollars. Eastern District, Mrs. C. E. Jones, Chairman has said we will bring up two thousand dollars. Western District, Mrs. Dora Burkes, Chairman, will bring up one thousand dollars. Sisters, do your very best to bring more if possible. Rev. Inman and his ladies are doing everything possible to make our stay at Pocahontas one of pleasure. They are now prepared for our coming. Send the names of your delegates at once to Mrs. Lizzie Jennings, Box 399, Pocahontas, Va. We are calling for ten dollars from every life member, it can be paid through your Circles. Annual members are asked to give two dollars through your Circles. Volunteer Missionaries are asked to bring up fifty dollars, if possible. Women, we must be lining up now for this great campaign; our Convention must reach more women, it is our opportunity and also our obligation. Our Field Worker, Mrs. Gordon is stirring the country. Let us hear from you before the Convention meets. We must have five thousand dollars. The Convention will meet June 24 at nine o'clock in the First Baptist Church, Pocahontas, Va., Rev. Iman, pastor. Come one, come all, you are welcome. Yours for five thousand dollars, MRS. L. W. TYRRELL, President. 1307 Twelfth Street. Lynchburg, Virginia. WHITE MAN ASSAULTS WHITE MAN ASSAULTS (Continued From First Page.) sry near the crossing of the Southern Railway and Moore Street only a short distance from her home and asked her if she would like a job as nurse in his home, that his wife and baby were sick and that he needed a nurse. Telling the child that he lived on Sixth Street only a short distance from where she lived. It will be noted that this is an exclusive residential section of the city for prominent white people and no such a thing as Noe has ever lived on that street. The child went to her home and told her mother of having met this man and of the conversation that ensued also saying that he had told her that he lived on Sixth Street. The mother, knowing that only the best of white people lived there gave her consent that the girl go and see the body of the house and see what arrangements she wished to make concerning her working there as nurse. The child left the house in company with her brother who had been cantoned by his mother to accompany Noe and the girl to the home of the supposed sick wife and baby. Upon reaching the place where Noe was waiting the child's return the boy did not go any further. Whether he was stopped by the man or not seems of little importance since Noe was seen in company with the child with out her brother by Mrs. Cora Mabe, white, an employee of Servers' Laun dity, located on Moore street a short distance from where Noe approach of the girl. Coming to Moore and Cumberland streets Noe turned up Cumberland street contrary to the direction in which he should have gone. The child hesitated there and Noe was seen to beckon her to follow him by Charley Brown an employee of the Goodwyn Coal and Ice Company. From this point Noe pursued a circuitous route taking pains to keep away from the streets that were the busiest. Getting well away from the populous section of the city, Noe was seen by Jesse Ray, colored, and Floyd Childress, white. Stopping to talk with Childress he told him "he would have something to tell him that night." Floyd Childress testified that Noe old see him that night following the attack upon the girl and told him of his relations with a "twelve year old nigger gal." This was the last time Noe was seen as far as could be learned. He went directly from where he talked with Floyd Childress to the spot on the knobs; where he forced this helpless, innocent child into submission by slapping her in the face because she struggled with him in her attempt to ward off his dirty act. Stopping as a child would from her efforts to free herself from this brute, to cry, Noe accomplished the purpose of his low, cowardly heart. Finishing his flend ish work. Noe told the child 16 "find her way back home as best she could, that he lived in Knoxville Tennessee, and was going there." Torn and bleeding, and weak from her struggle with that white beast the child wandered back home as best she could and told the story of her experience with Noe to her parents. They immediately called a physician, who upon thorough examination of the child found her to be term, lacerated, brushed and in a serious condition as a result of her experience with Noe. Immediately after hearing his daughter's story, and the outcome of the Doctor's examination, William Lindsay, father of the girl went directly to deputy sheriff Chas. F. Nuckolls of Sultan County, Tennessee, was told that the mugger would be looked into. Though living here in the city—Bristol, Tennessee, twenty-four hours elapsed and nothing had been done by him to apprehend Noe. A committee of the Inter-Thecial Committee of the Peoples Cooperative League was immediately formed and called upon Mayor Clarence King of Bristol, Tennessee who once called in Chief of Police Robert Moton. The committee informed the Mayor of Noe's attack upon the child and upon the Mayor's instructions. Chief of Police, Moton had Noe in jail within two hours after they had been informed of his crime. The actions of Mayor King and Chief Moton in affecting the arrest of Noe in such a short time after being informed of his attack upon the girl, and the refusal of Sheriff Nuckolls to do anything towards approaching this criminal affords a study in the history of the abuse and enforcement of the laws of the country. In the action of Nuckolls one can readily see why colored people are afforded such little or no protection from such outrageous attacks upon their women and children and the rule of mob and lynch law is allowed to sweep the country with its hellish destruction. Mayor King and Chief Moton are the types of men that are sure to put down lawlessness in this and other states and their efforts in awaeying the arrest and conviction of Noe will go a long way in establishing them in the esteem of people of Virginia and Tennessee. Noe's trial, the most sensational of its kind heard in Tennessee was marked throughout with the best of feeling between the races. It was evident from the beginning that no self-speecking citizen could feel other than that Noe was a menace to the comunity and should be gotten rid of. An alibi for Noe was tried to be proved by his attorneys, John T. Dehart and E. K. Backman but the prosecution had evidence too strong against him. They tried to show that Noe, between the hours of one o'clock and three o'clock in the after noon was not with the girl, but that according to Noe's testimony, he had left the home of Lawyer J. B. Ashworth, where he was working to attend a funeral "which the prosecution termed as his own." Lawyer Ashworth himself testifying that Noe came to his office between three and four o'clock of the afternoon of the crime it being near four. It was proved conclusively that the child got back to her home at fifteen minutes to four, showing that Noe used an out-of-the way method in getting back to the city thinking the child would not reach home until after dark, thereby covering up his tracks and shielding him from his crime. Chief of police, Moton testified there on that lonely mountain was that the child voluntarily led the way to the scene of the crime and the earth torn and shattered and the foot and force prints of the brute, giving evidence of a struggle between the child and Noe in an effort to save herself. Even the clothing worn by Noe at the time of the crime were shown in the court room bearing blood stains as evidence against him. Charlie Noe's trial and conviction closes a page in the criminal history of Tennessee that it is hoped will never have cause to be opened again. The address of Attorney General O. B. Lovett to the jury is one that will live long in memory of that crowded little court house, characterizing the Negro as the most loyal and patriotic, law-abiding and liberty loving citizen of the country, he paid high tribute to the value of the coined man as a factor in the development of the country. He told of the thousands who fearlessly left their homes and loved ones to go three THE RICHMOND PLANET, RICHMOND, VIRGINIA thousand miles from the land of his birth to fight for the freedom of a superior people in numbers and opportunity. Of how, in all the Nation's struggles for her integrity and freedom he had bared his breast to the onslaught of the enemy and died unfinished that his country might live, and the climax of his address was reached when he dramatically exclaimed "what would these dead heroes say could they come to you now and see your attempt to turn this brute loose to prey upon the members of his race?" Attorney Joseph Caldwell for the prosecution presented logical and conclusive argument, asking that nothing less than death sentence should be given the perpetrator of this hideous crime. The jury delicately all night returning a verdict the next morning of guilty on the second count ad recommending any penalty other than death, Judge A. A D. Vines discharged the jury without compliment and gave the prisoner the extreme penalty prescribed by the verdict which was imprisonment for life. ART SCHOOL AT UNION. Announcement of Summer Extension Course in fine arts at the Virginia Union University, Richmond, Va., June 14th to August 28th, 1920. If your children show taaste for music, you want them to take music lessons, do you not? But music is only one of the fine arts. Many of our young people have remarkable talents in other lines, hild de or undeveloped. Why not bring these to the light also? The culture of any people depends largely on the ability of that people to express inner ideas. Music, drawing, painting, sculpture, architecture and printing are forms of self-expression just as truly as is oratory; the only difference being that a skilled hand rather than a skilled tongue is doing the work. But drawing has many practical uses. We need but to mention decorative design, illustrating of magazines, architectural and mechanical drawing, or cartooning to suggest also the large amount of money being paid out annually to those who possess a trained artistic hand. And apart from the enjoyment of knowing how to represent what we see on canvas, it is now well known that it is much easier to teach the young through the eye than through the ear. How indispensable, therefore, for the prospective parent, Sunday School worker, day school teacher, social worker or any other person who may ever be responsible for the educational welfare of others. In order to advance the cause ofot among colored people the Virgin ie Union University offers, at a nominal cost, various summer courses in art. Take advantage of this unusual opportunity at once. COURSES AND TERMS Each of the following classes will meet once a week for two hours through the ten weeks, June 14th, to August 28th. Pupils furnish all materials such as paper, pencils, paints and brushes. These materials will cost from 50 cents to $5.00 according to the subject chosen. One or more courses may be elected. Tuition Free for each course, $5.00 payable in advance. No other costs. Hours to suit pupils. COURSES OFFERED Course 1. Free-hand drawing for chit dreen under high school age. Course 2. Free-hand drawing for adults and children of high school age. Course 7. Oil color painting for advanced students only. Write to Prof. F. H. Rose for further information. REV VALENTINE SUCCEEDS REV S.

Turner who sands charged with the murder of one, Mr. Moore and attempted an assault on Miss Clark, on a government reservation at Arlington, near Alexandria, Attorney Denny had a long interview with his client Sunday morning in the Heurico County Jail and now he begs the press and the public in general to with-hold judgment until a Court of law passes upon his guilt or innocence. The Federal Grand Jury will meet in Alexandria July 6th, at which Time Turner will be indicted for murder. By order of the Court, his trial has been set for July the 14th. Mr. Denny will go to Alexandria, July 6th and move the Court for a change of venue and it is very probable that the United States' Attorney will agree mind for trial because of the City to have the case brought to Richmond, all men are guaranteed a fair and impartial trial. Turner is without means to pay Counsel and the public should interest themselves in this case, not for the purpose of snatching a guilty man from punishment, but for the purpose of seeing that he has a fair speedy and an impartial trial and that the punishment will not be too severe for the crime committed; and none of these things can be done without the aid of an Attorney.
