PAR Hon. Robe Scen Colored Folk Chicago has been the "storm center" or political activity since Saturday July 10th, 1920. The occasion has been the assembling of a national convention called by the "Committee of Forty-eight," which committee had its active headquarters in St. Louis, Mo., with ramifications throughout the country, but primarily in N. Y. The radical labor group which has repudiated the leadership of Hon. Samuel Gompers, finally secured the ascendency in the convention, which convention had 101 different organizations and creeds represented. The first bolt came when the "single taxers," not securing their demands in the platform left the meeting. CANDIDATES NOMINATED They held a convention of their own and proceeded to nominate Robert C. MacAuley of Philadelphia, Pa., for President; R. C. Barmann of Cleveland, Ohio for Vice President. This nomination took place Tuesday, July 13, 1920. This was followed on Wednesday by the nomination by the Farmer-Labor Party of Parley P. Christensen of Salt Lake City a member of the Committee of Forty-eight for President. The convention proved to be a veritable "Tower of Babel. Eleven hundred delegates were present. Radicalism prevailed to such an extent the Senator Robert M. La Follette declined to permit the use of his name. PLANKS MISSING. Henry Ford of Detroit was nominated as a candidate. The indications are that the extremists in the country will find a rallying point under try will find a rallying paint under this flag, but that the present status of the two great political parties will not be affected by this peculiar meeting in Chicago. While no discrimination was made in any national conventions on the race question, nevertheless, no provision appears in the platform planks relative to Lynching, racial discrimination on the denial of fundamental rights to citizens of color.

AN ORDERLY LYNCHING There was no disorder except the yielding of the lynchers when the Negroes were brought to meet their doom. In the meantime the stakes had been set up on the Hodges' farm and made ready for the execution. It was all quietly done. The stakes were put in place, fuel was prepared for th fire, and the men were burn ed according to the schedule of the lynchers.

(American Negro Press.) Columbus, Ohio, July—By a ruling handed down by the Secretary of State last Thursday, Harry C. Smith, editor of The Cleveland Gazette, was forced off the Republican ticket, as a candidate for nomination for Secretary of State, subject to the August primary election. Because the Gazette's editor has the same initials "H. C." as the present secretary of State, Harvey C. Smith, he was charged with collusion to confuse the voters although Harry C. Smith denied collusion, and the evidence brought out at the hearing did not substantiate the charge. Because Harry M. Daughterly, political manager of Senator Harding, voluntarily and without hearing on the case caused to be introduced evidence purporting he had sent Harry C. Smith check for expenses to come to Chicago to work for Harding Colored voters are charging that Harding-Daugherty combine was in collusion to force Smith off the ticket. The Cleveland Advocate, edited by Forte and Taylor, and between whom and the editor of the Gazette there has been no love, has bitterly denounced the ruling of Harry C. Smith from the race as highhanded injustice, and have championed the cause of its local contemp orary's editor. The incident has greatly aroused Ohio colored voters, and fear exists that they will make the party pay for it by withholding their votes from Harding in November.

TWO ARCHDEACON RUSSELL'S WIFE DIED AT LAWRENCEVALLE The Richmond Planet, Richmond No. (Special Correspondence.) Lawrenceville, July 3.—The community was shocked yesterday morning when it became known that Mrs. Virginia M. Russell, wife of Archdeacon Russell, had expired at 5:30 A. M. after an illness of a few days duration. Mrs. Russell had been in poor health for some time, but it was only recently that distinctively unfavorable symptoms developed. All was done for her that love and skilful medical attendance could suggest, but she steadily grew worse. On Sunday and Monday absent members of the family were sent for. These were her daughters, Mrs. Dr. Robert A. Deane, who was in Washington, D. C., and Mrs. Rev. M B. Birchett, Portsmouth, Va. They came with their husbands and were with her when the old came, 5:30 o'clock Friday morning. Her translation was so quiet and so peaceable that the watchers around her bedside hardly realized that her gentle spirit it had flown. Always a devout Christian and a sincere follower of her Lord and Saviour whom she loved so well her last conscious utterance was characteristic, Wednesday night she revived some what from the state of coma into which she had been for some hours. Her lips were seen to move. Archdeacon Russell, who had been constantly by her bedside, and other members of the family bont over to catch her words. It was a request for the administration of the Holy Communion. The sacred elements were procured and the blessed sacrament administered to her for the last time by Archdeacon Russell in the midst of her sorrowing family who also par took. It was 10 P. M. The hour the scene, the kneeling family and the face of the stricken mother transfigured for the moment with the brightness of that glory which soon she was to inherit forever. It was a picture of the eternal verities that can never be effaced. After the sacrament she relapsed into a state of coma which lasted until the end. The funeral service took place Saturday 2:00 P. M., in St. Paul's Memorial Chapel. The Chapel was crowded to repletion by those wishing to pay the last and tribute of respect. The chancel and altar ewre bright with flowers. A floral decoration of evergreens and lilies of the valley marked her seat in the Chapel. The service was conducted by the Rev. E. E. Miller, rector of her girlhood Church, St. Stephen's, Petersburg assisted by the Rev. J. L. Taylor D. D., rector of St. Phillip's, Richmond. The service was simple and unantentious, in keeping with her beautiful and unassuming life. The sentences were said by the Rev. Messrs. E. E. Miller, D. D. Lee and J. L. Taylor, Hymn 396 was sung, followed by the reading of Psalms 39 and 90, and the Scripture Lesson I Cor. XV. 20. "Lead Kindly Light" Cardinal Newman's beautiful hymn and one of Mrs. Russell's favorites was sung by Miss Annette and Mr. C. E. Green. The Creed was said by the Rev. S. W. Grice followed by hymn, "Guide Me O Thou Great Jehovah" was sung, which was another of Mrs. Russell's favorites. Then followed special prayers by the Rev. J. L. Taylor, D. D. This ended the service at the Church. As the remains were taken out of the church, "Rock of Ages" was sung. The interment was in St. Paul's cemetery and services at the grave were constructed by the Revs. E. E. Miller, J. L. Taylor ant D. J. Lee. The floral decorations were numerous nearly fifty. Among them were a floral pillow; faculty of St. Paul's School; "Palms," Rev. and E. E. Miller, wreathes from St. Paul's Mission Suffolk, St. Stephen's Petersburg; Grace Church, Norfolk; Mr. and Mrs. L. H. Foster, Petersburg; Miss Bessie and Mr. Willie Burke, Norfolk; Mr. and Mrs. Sol Davidson, Brooklyn, New York. A floral author from her husband inscribed "My Wife," a pillow, "Mother" from the children; a wreathe "Grandma" from the grandchildren. Among the out of town people attending were: Major Allen Washington, representing Hampton Institute President and Mrs. J. M. Gandy and Treasurer and Business Manager L. H. Foster and wife representing V. N & I. L. Petersburg, the Revs. E. E. Miller, S. W. Grice; Basil Kent; Jos. W. Carroll; J. L. Taylor; H. T. Butler; D. J. Lee and J. C. Dennis representing the clergy of the diocese; Mrs. C. E. Smith, Mrs. J. W. Carroll, Mrs. John Bland and others representing the Woman's Auxiliary of the Archdeaconry. Mrs. Russell is survived by her husband, two sons, Herman W. Russell and the Rev. J. Alvin Russell; three daughters, all married; Mrs. A. H. Turner; Mrs. Dr. Robert Deane and Mrs. M. B. Birechet; two brothers and a sister. THE NEGRO IS LEARNING THE POWER OF THE BALLOT Baltimore.

Dr. A. L. Gaines, Pastor of Trinity A. M. E. Church introduced and the Preachers Meeting unanimously adopted the following resolution: RESOLVED, That the African Methodist Episcopal Preachers' Meeting, because of a seeming disposition on the part of the City Republi can leaders and their advisors to ignore the colored voters of the city in the way of recognition, declares itself in favor of the National Repub Hican Ticket, headed by Harding and Coolridge, but reserved the right to advise its constituency to act along independent lines in voting for State and local candidates in the November electon.' FEDERAL EMPLOYEE LYNCHED. N. A. A. C. P. Calls on Postmaster General to Investigate Lynching of Negro Postal Clerk. Association also asks Governor of Texas to Punish Mob Which Buried at Stake Two Negroes. The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People today wired Postmaster General A. S. Burleson requesting that he order an investigation into the facts of the lynching of James Spencer, a Negro postal clerk at Enterprise, Miss., on July 5, reminding him of the fact that the federal government hos the power of police protection over those in its service. At the same time the Association wired Governor W. P. Hobby of Texas asking that he bring to justice the members of the mob which on July 6, at Paris, Texas, took from the county jail Irving and Herman Arthur who were being held on a charge of having killed their landlord and his son, and buried them at staFahdrduelmoinidwim this latter lynching is magnified by dispatches in which the sheriff at Paris, Texas is quoted as declaring that one of the two Negroes burned was not the right one and that he doubted whether the other was the right party, and in which he is reported to have gone into Arkansas on the trail of the men believed to have killed the farmer and his son. The telegram follows: July 7, 1920. Washington, D. C. Dispatches July fifth from Enterprise Mississippi, report James Spencer, Negro postal clerk, taken from officers of law and lynched, alleged offense stabbing of Otho Parker, white postal clerk, on New Orleans and Northwestern car car last Friday. Federal government has power of police protection over those in its service. It is therefore duty of government to inquire into death of Spencer and take steps to secure punishment of those guilty of his murder.

JOHNSON, Field Secretary. National Association for Advancement of Colored people JOHNSON JOINS IN SUPPORT OF PARTY TICKET. California Unqualifiedly Indorses Res Publican Standard Bearer, FOUR SQUARE, HE SAYS. Facing Breach in Their Own Party They Had Hoped for Bolt from G O. P. Harding Emphasizes "Interest in the Party." Marion, Ohio, July 7.—When informed today that Senator Johnson had issued a statement that he would support the Republican ticket Senator Harding said: "I am glad Senator Johnson is going to give the support, and hrd I am glad to know of everybody's support, and would much rather have support on the grounds that our platform is appealing than on the grounds of interest in the nominees." The Ohio Senator added that throughout the campaign he intended to emphasize "interest in the party." "It's going to be a fad in the campaign," said Senator Harding. Washington, July 74.—The announcement of Senator Uriam Johnson opponent of Senator Harding for the Republican Presidential nomination, that he would support his colleague and campaign for the success of the Republican ticket is interpreted here as a splendid sign of approval of the Harding policy or consulting representatives of all shades of belief within the party ranks. The Johnson announcement was surprise to those close in his confidence. It long has been known by them that he would forget his natural disappointment over the action of the convention in going over him to Senator Harding provided the latter did not make it impossible by violating some of the cherished and strong convictions held by the California Senator. That Senator Harding has not violated those convictions is proved by the tenor of the statement which comes after a silence that for a time made party leaders uneasy. But this uneasy feeling never was shared by Senator Harding himself. While he kept his own counsel in the matter it may now be stated that Senator Harding has been en tirely confident that there would be no bolt on the part of Senator John son. This assurance was born of in formation that he obtained in Washington in the various consultations he held with Republicans who be fore the convention were in the Johnson camp. PLEDGED SUPPORT TO HARDING. It will be recalled that during the conferences Senator Harding hold with these men without a single exeception they expressed enthusiasm for the nominee, pledged their support and since then have joined with organization forces to win the Presidency from the Democrats. These pledges of support were given as the direct result of the clear understanding of Senator Harding's views gained in the exhaustive discussions of party questions that were carried on from the time he reached here from Chicago until he started for his Ohio home in Marlton. Additional significance is attached to Senator Johnson's endorsement of Senator Harding because it was issued prior to the notification cereumies to be held July 22. Some of Senator Johnson's friends thought he might hold back his pledge of support until Senator Harding delivered his speech of acceptance since that has come to be regarded as of greater importance in many respects than the Republican national plat form itself. Senator Johnson already had indorsed the platform and was prepared to make the race on it. Hence that cut no figure and any doubts he may have entertained centered around Senator Harding's interpretation of the platform still to be uttered. The general principles underlying that document have been discussed freely with the Johnson THE RICHMOND PLANET, RICHMOND, VIRGINIA RELIGIOUS EDUCATION THE SUNDAY SCHOOL PUBLISHING COMPANY, BEN 1, N. 220 04, Richmond, Virginia Printing and Publishing of Church Supplies, School Supplies, Music, Bibles, Books, etc. Everything The Management asks your Patronage—Harry W.

CHILL IN DEMOCRATIC CAMP. In Democritic circles in east the same chill over calculations that came when after the threatened split in Chicago over the treaty plank the danger was displaced in the adoption of the present treaty plank. The Democrits still were clinging to the forlorn hope that Senator Johnson hight vote or at least say nothing and keep out of the campaign. But now they see a united Republican party with every section in the race and presenting a solid phalanx and at the same time they face a serious breach in their own party owing to the bitter fight in the convention between the Administration and anti-Administration forces and the keen disappointment of William J. Bryan over the Cox nomination. While the latter is less important that the former both are serious liabilities which in spite of the struggle to keep up the appearance of confidence and optimism are giving frave concern to the Democratic leaders.

SUBSCRIPTION RATES the Year ..... $ 2.00 ix Months ..... 1.10 Three Months ..... .00 Foreign Subscriptions ..... 2.60 SATURDAY.....JULY 17, 1920 THE JAPANESE QUESTION. This color question is destined to get the United States in much trouble and this League of Nations may yet load to President Wilson's undoing. The Japanese are now being ostracised and discriminated against in California and the National Administration appears to be helpless. Mr. Albert W. Fox in the Washington Post of the 15th inst., has this to say about this most embarrassing situation. There are two important developments in the diplomatic controversy looming up between Japan and the United States over the prospect of discriminatory legislation by the State of California against the Japanese. They are: First—Japan will if necessary, decide whether he will seek to discountage California's proposed action or whether by not interfering he will encourage it. Second—Japan will, if necessary, appeal to the league of nations, there by forcing the league, under the specific terms of the covenant, to assume jurisdiction and decide whether or the United States is to be allowed to regard this as a domestic issue or not. The league is pledged to take cognizance of the case even though the United States be not a member. It is known that the representations which the Japanese Ambassador here has made to Secretary of State Colby are informal and calculated simply to direct the attention of the United States government to the situation in California. No attempt has been made to suggest a line of action for the Federal government, for the reason that it is fully understood on both sides that the only action which the Federal government can legally take is to advise the California authorities not to enact legislation which will offend Japan; violate the spirit of the so-called Root-Takahira "gentlemen's agreement" and perhaps lead to serious trouble between the two governments. The alternative for President Wilson would be to take no action at all which would be interpreted by the Tokyo foreign office as an invitation to California to go ahead with what ever discriminatory legislation the State desired irrespective of the position of Japan. That the latter course would inevitably threaten peaceful relations between the United States and Japan is admitted and in this event the question would be brought to the attention of the league of nations by Japan as threatening to disturb the peace of the world. The United States, not a league member would be invited to become a member for the purpose of settling the dispute and President Wilson would then have the alternative of declining to recognize the provisions of the covenant or seeking to have this essentially American question passed upon and decided by a council of foreigners. There would be no other alternative. Incidentally the league might take cognizance of the question and assume jurisdiction irrespective of the desires of the United States. Then follows specific citations from the articles of the Covenant of the League of Nations bearing upon the subject. Even by implication, The United States of America have become involved in the world controversy and it will be a long time before the damage already Mone will be rectified and the former position of this country established. The Californians are independent and defiant. They are particularly bitter against the Japanese and their Government. Whether or not it will result in the rupture of the friendly relations previously existing between the two countries is the question. Certain it is that they will not tolerate these discriminations against their subjects without involving the world in the controversy. Colored people are particularly observant of the situation and interest --- ed in the outcome. The race question as applied to them has led to the Japanese on the Pacific Coast. Let as hope that a happy solution may be found by the incoming administration, should President Wilson find a way to hand it down to it as a legacy. MEDDLING WITH WHITE FOLKS BUSINESS. Force and right govern everything in this world; force till right is ready. —Joubert. The merger of the Westmoreland and the Commonwealth clubs of Richmond, so-called, continues to attract the attention of the public and to engage the business of the courts. Judge Ernest H. Wells, sitting for Judge Beverly T. Crump quickly "passed the buck," so to speak announcing that the court was without jurisdiction. Just why Judge Crump, who is an authority on constitutional law, should have stepped aside in order that such an opinion should be rendered, is a mystery. It has been finally ascertained that the State Corporation Commission is the proper tribunal before which to decide the questions at issue and from this tribunal there is an appeal to the Supreme Court of Appeals of Virginia. It looks as though lawyers are "at sea" as to the law themselves. When Hon. Edwin P. Cox, at one time a member of the law, is unable to determine as to which tribunal he should appeal in a case of this importance then certainly, the law-makers have mixed matters considerably in their efforts to put new legislation upon the statute books of Virginia. These gentlemen wanted an injunction and where else should they apply for an injunction, but to a court in this jurisdiction? The "long and short" of the whole matter is that somebody has blundered. A historian wrote at one time in speaking of the fallen Grecian and Roman Empires, "The glory that was Greece and the grandeur that was Rome." These thoughts come to mind, when we contemplate the high plane upon which the Westmoreland club has been conducted for more than a quarter of a century. From the time that Attorney James Lyons held sway there and Col. Jo Lane Stern served his apprenticeship there under the learned barrister down to the present time, only those Virginians, who had reached the zenith of fame and who had ascended to the top round of social and political achievement were admitted within its sequestered confines. But this is a day of commercialism, when money and the matter of getting more money is the primary thought and purpose of the leaders of today. Gauged by this standard, those gentlemen, who are strenuous in bringing about this merger are right, but those other members, who cherished memories of the days when "worth makes the man and the want of it the fellow" oppose all propositions for the enrichment of either club and the letting down of the bars of exclusiveness to the individuals of today are right also. Stately jurists and respected states men must "rub elbows" hereafter with the 'mian' regardless of his standing or his ability. Can a union of action be brought about on this basis? It is like the Louines and the Trotskys roaming through the palaces of the Czars at St. Petersburg and Moscow. It is like the Eberts and the Fehrenbachs sitting in the palatial edifices of the Hohenzollerns and the Bismarcks in Germany. It is like the Valeras and the Carsons lounging in the private apartments of King Edward V. of England. The exclusiveness and privacy is wanting in this Republie. But "the most unkindest cut of all," while not so intended was the rape of the name, "Westmoreland." The Commonwealth Club name which was cosmopolitan is to be eliminated and Hamlet with Hamlet left out substituted therefor, while the proceeds from the sale of this valuable landmark will swell the coffers of the new club and eliminate all in dobtedness of either organization provided either ever had any indebtedness. Of course, these sad days to the Westmoreland may have been brought about by the radical action of the great Commoner and his associates, when they banished from the country in general and Virginia in particular the "cup that cheers and enebriates." Hon. William J. Bryan did not know the taste of that vector of dozing joyfulness, the Virginia mint julep and the insidious, but transcendent effect of the club cocktail. The Country Club is the retreat for golf after the sipping of the limeade decoction, the lemonade or the bottle of Bryan grape juice. But what will be the outcome of this struggle between these white folks in which many of the "K. E.

Sir Aukland Geddes, British Ambassador to the United States presenting General Pershing with a gold jeweled sword, the gift of the City of London. Vs." are to be found qu both sides of the contention? This is an ora where the rights and privileges of the minority are no longer recognized. It reminds us of a story, for which we are not responsible, but which was told to us by one of the single tax agitators. He said that under the Lenino administration of the Soviet in Russia a manufacturer was approached by a rerpesentativo of his workmen, who said, "We want half of the proceeds from this industrial plant." "You have the power; take it" was the reply. In a few days, they came again. "We want 75 percent of the proceeds from this plant," they said. "You have the power," was the reply. "Take it." And again they came. This time they said, "We want one hundred percent of the proceeds of this plant." The manufacturer protested, telling them that they were taking all. They would not listen and again he made the laconic response. "You have the power; take it." He was sure that inasmuch as they had ruined him, the end had come, but a short time afterwards, they came again. "We want one hundred and fifty percent of the proceeds from this plant," they said. The manufacturer knew that it was impossible to argue or convince them, so he said. "You have the power; take it." It was only after this that they found out that inasmuch as they had taken one hundred percent, which was all, that there could be nothing else to take. So it will be with this Westmoreland muddle. The Courts are apparently influenced by the present day doublings, if we are to judge by the 5 to 4 decisions of the Supreme Court of the United States. It is a day of majority rule, with constitutional law and the rights of the minority thrown into discard. This is a time when men will not stand sound doctrine and when from the bottom to the top and the top to the bottom, the cry is, "You have the power; take it." BICEETT OFFERS REWARD FOR ROXONBOR LYNCHERS. $100 for Each Member of Mob The Hung "Red" Roach Last Week. Raleigh, N.

(Associated Negro Press) Cincinnati, July—Henry Lincoln Johnson, lawyer, former Recorder of Deeds for the District of Columbia, and present member of the Republican National Committee from Georgia, has been named by Chairman Will H. Hays of the Republican National Committee to have charge of the entire campaign work, as it affects our group, throughout the United States. Some member of the National Committees has always, been assigned to this work, but this is the first time it has gone to a member of the race. The departure is very significant, and indicates two important facts: the Committee has been aroused to the insistent demands of the race of proper recognition; and, there is a real awakening to the importance of proper campaigning among the voters in the pivotal states of West Virginia, Ohio, Illinois, Indiana, Kentucky, Michigan and Missouri. Sad a white member of the National Committee to the Associated Negro Press "The Colored people of these states, since the great migration from the South, will doubtless be the deciding factor in the Presidential election." Colonel Johnson enters upon the biggest political job ever undertaken by a member of the race. In an interview in Chicago for the Associated Negro Press, he said: "This campaign will be the most important in which our people have ever engaged. With us it is a campaign for human rights and we can fight for them better within the Republican party than without. It is to be a campaign in which every Negro voter from the voting states will be invited to take an active part. The border states will decide the battle and the ovalance of power in these states lies with the colored voter. The oxolus has iperces ed the voting strength by thousands. The Negro is interested in politics as never before. He is reading, he is asking, he is speaking "right out in the meeting" and he is acting. The vital question he is asking from one end of the country to the other is: "Where Do We Come In?" He is not asking it with a smile of indifference nor with the seckly grin of the cynic he is asking it with that serious determination which proclaims a group awakened to the full knowledge of man's estate. The fight this year, so far as the American Negro is concerned, is to be for the fulfillment of a definite national program. When Marea 4th comes around, and the next President is inaugurated, "we want to be able to demand of him that this program which we are now laying down will be carried out," declared Col. Johnson. The program as proclaimed by Col. Johnson is summed up as follows: 1. A law forbidding Jim Crow cars entering the capital at Washington. 2. A "General Executive Order" forbidding any such as segregation in any department of the government, or federal territory, of the United States. 3. Passage of a law making lynch ing a federal crime, with trial before and punishable by the United States Court. 4. That office holding should be unarmed, with the full rights of any citizen to hold same and enjoy the emoluments thereof. Col. Johnson who is now in Chicago, will spend practically all of suite of rooms in the Auditorium His time in the city until after the election. He has been assigned, a tel, on the parlor floor and a part of the space occupied by the national headquarters. The rooms have been fitted up with the necessary furniture and such office assistants as are required, are living installed. Col. Johnson is calling into conference leading members of the race from every section of the country. He invites advice and suggestions, and stated that he is there "merely as an instrument for the cause, and not as a dictator." Mail will reach him addressed to the Auditorium Hotel, Republican National Committee, Chicago, Illinois. Further announcement regarding those who will assist in the management of organization, speakers and publicity, will be made in a few days. It is probable that a woman's department will be also be opened. THE KIND of GIRL EVERY MAN WILL LOVE How Old Are You?

Patient Swallows Rubber Tube and Gall Duct's Concents Are Drawn out by Suction. Chicago, July 14.—A painless method of treating diseases of the gallbladder, which it was claimed would eliminate surgical operations in more than 50 per cent of such cases, has been perfected, by Dr. Frank Smithie, associate professor of medicine in the University of Illinois it was an nounced today. Dr. Smithie's device consists mainly of a small, egg-shaped ball, about one-quarter of an inch in diameter and one-half inch long and fifty-four inches of rubber tubing about the size of a lead penail. The ball is easily swallowed by patients, and the contents of the gall duct are painlessly drawn through the tube by suction. --- JUDGES DECIDE IN FAVOR OF S. C. OF M.

After Nearly Six Weeks Deliberation the Judges Reached a Conclusion Last Saturday, Finding no Merit Claims of Ben Davis Followers. The three judges of Common Pleas-Court No. 3, Philadelphia (Mr. Justice McMichael, Mr. Justice Ferguson, and Mr. Justice Davis,) sitting as a court en banc, reached a decision last Saturday, July 10, 1920 in the case of Nqel and others against Grand Master Edward II. Morris and his colleagues on the SubCommittee of Management, in which judgment was rendered in favor of Grand Master Morris and colleagues notwithstanding the verdict rendered by a jury on April 23 last adverse to them. It will be remembered that, Grand Master Morris and the other members of the Sub-Committee of the Manage ment took an appeal from this unfaw orable and unwarranted verdict of a jury, whose members were permitted all freedom of intercourse and move ment outside of the jury box and court chamber throughout the nine days of the trial last April. This appeal came on for a hearing before the three judges on May 25 ul tima, and was argued by former Judge A. M. Beitler, on behalf of the Sub-Committee of Management, and by Attorney G. Wharton Pepper on behalf of those contending against the Sub-Committee of Management.

PLATFORM Hallie Brown's Declaration to 600 Colored Women Appealed to by Harding. Tuskegee Institute, Ala., July 17.—Six hundred Negro women参加 the annual convention of the National Association of Colored Women, today applauded Halle Q. Brown, first vice president who charged that "while the Republican party is the party that has stood by us it was noticeable at the Chicago convention that the platform committee reported not a plank, but a splinter against lynching." During the sessions today a telegram was read to the delegates from Senator Warren G. Harding, Republi can committee for president, extend I cordial greetings to the New club women and expressing the hope that the association will be guided by the broad and uplifting spirit which characterized the founder of Tuskegee Institute, Booker T. Washington whom he hailed as one of the really useful men of the country. The telegram closed with the phrase: "His example is a great heritage which your people should guard most zealously."

Negro Accuses Democrats of Lynch ing and Using Money, but Advance es No Proof. HOT ON PALMER'S TRAIL. To Probe Alleged Expenditure of $3,000 in St. Louis by Attorney-General's Friends. Chicago, July 8.—Henry Lincoln Johnson Negro national committee man, better known as Governor Lowen's "Georgia Peach," was the star witness today before the Senate committee that is investigating the huge expenditures by the Wood-Lowen forces in pre-convention campaigns. He said that between $65,000 and $80,000 was spent for General Wood in Georgia and admitted that $20,000 of Lowen cash was spent by one agent alone. Johnson attempted to justify this lavish expenditure by "Republican missionaries" and promises of post-masterships galore to the colored brethren, by introducing charges that white men in Georgia lynched Negroes though even Senator Kenyon, the Republican chairman of the "slush fund" hunters, ready to admit any evidence reflecting on Demo cratic candidates, couldn't justify the "peach's" irrelevant testimony along this line. GOT $9,000 FROM ILLINOIS. After admitting that he received $5,000 from Illinois, "but not from Governor Lowden himself," Johnson said he spent $7,000 or $8000 of his own money and $4,000 raised from other sources, adding that the Democrats spent more money than he did. Senator rReed interrupted with "But you don't care so long as you got $9,000 do you?" "Not a bit," said Johnson, but I would need about $50,000 to combat some Democratic candidates down there." Johnson did not introduce any proof of his assertion that Democrats used corruption funds, but wandered off into a charge that Negroes who voted the Republican ticket have "disappeared," backing up this charge by declaring that a Negro who voted for Harrison in 1888 had never been heard of since. "They don't lynch them for belonging to the Republican party do they?" asked Senator Kenyon, Republican . "Oh, yes, they do," Johnson replied. Many a Negro voting the Republican ticket has disappeared and no tidings have ever been heard of him." URGES FEDERAL LAW. It calls for federal law to prevent lynching of Negroes, and after Senator Fred assured him that one would be passed he admitted that during the preconvention campaign there was a "wild use of money" in Dublin, Ga. . . "I spent only $150 there," he explained, but the other fellows spent more than $2,000. "The other fellows' he said, were the representatives of Major-General Leonard Wood, while I was working for my national committeeman. Asked if Wood supporters "brought delegates" Johnson said he did not know, but they passed out plenty of jack to the boys. Clark L. Grier, former postmaster at Augusta, was "the pay-off man" for votes in Georgia this year and for the Acool people, he said, adding that Grier worked under direct orders from F. Hitchcock former Postmaster General in the Roosevelt Cabinet. Democrats paid from $5 to $5,000 for votes in Georgia this year and "generally spent more money than the Republicans" Johnson told the committee, "but not one cent given to me was given to any delegate to the Republican National Convention. TURNS TO PALMER, CAMPAIGN Senator Kenyon suddenly turned to the Palmer campaign in Georgia asking Johnson if officials of the Department of Justice took part in the attorneys' campaign there. "Mooper L. Alexander, of Atlanta, was the leader" Johnson said. Other questions concerning activities of the Department of Justice in Georgia brought no definite information. Going back to the Wood campaign Johnson said National Committee man George Bean, of Florida; Captain H. Blun, of Savannah, Ga., and Henry Blun, of Savannah, Ga., and former Postmaster Cole, of Atlanta, "cared nothing about Wood," but were ordered to prepare a delegation for Mr. Hitchcock to boss. Johnson charged that offers of postmasterships were made openly by Wood backers to men of influence to get Wood votes. WERE FORMER POSTMASTERS. Many of the men backing Wood were former postmasters, he said. Were any of your men offered jobs as postmasters?" Senator Kenyon asked. "Not directly, but they would not lot the crown be offered them too many times," Johnson answered. I might have said I would use my influence. Senators Kenyon, Reed and Spencer of the committee which has uncovered the use of millions by Republians left for St. Louis tonight to find out whether any "boodle" was employed to unseat Senator James Reed in the Democratic National Convention. Another subject for the probe will be the charge that the Palmer forces spent $3,000 to further the Attorney Generals campaign in St. Louis. SOUTH CAROLINA COURT FREES CONVICTED COLORED MAN. Supreme Judges Declare That Evil Thoughts Must Become Actual Deeds in Certain Cases. Spadansburg, S. C., July 12.—The State Supreme Court in an order received here today, set aside the verdict of guilty an ordered the release of Will Kelly an aged Negro, of Cowpens, this county convicted of attempted attack upon a little white girl and sentenced to ten years' in prisonment. The court held there was no evidence upon which to base a conviction. "When a man charged with evil thoughts ripened into action," the decision said, his fellow-triers cannot rest judgment on their knowledge of original sin inherent in the prisoner, else none of us would escape judgment. The evil thought, which is the original intent only becomes unlawful when he who harbors it proceeds to put it into action. The single act of the defendant, testified to by the female child does not tend to prove that when he put his hand upon her he had a criminal intent. To so hold would hurt the law more than it would hurt the defendant." THE Y. M. C. A. NOTES. Last Friday night gave the men an opportunity for service to the other man. The boys and men of the Y. M. C. A. were very active last Sunday. 9:30 A. M. at the building the workers met and the meeting was enjoyed.

Every since the North Craolina Mutual Insurance Company brought its work into the state of Virginia early in 1917. Mr C. A. Wright a native of Ohio has actively prosecuted the business on this great Negro Company in the city of Richmond. The marked insurance ability of Mr. Wright as demonstrated in his management of the Richmond District has won for him a transfer to the Home Office of the company, and he leaves immediately to take up his duties in Durham. Mr. D. C. Deane, Jr., who succeeds Mr. Wright as general agent is a native of the state of West Virginia, and his business career extends well of several states. He is an insurance man of unusual experience having served the Southern Aid Society with credit, both in the Home Office and on the field. During his stay here in Richmond Mr. Deane made for himself a host of friends and acquaintances. General approval is expressed at the return of this popular business man, and we predict for him over whelming success with the "North Carolina Mutual Life Insurance Company.
