VOLUME XXXVII No.39 LOYAL RACI The Politic port New Attorney New Motives in Colored Sou OPPOSED COLORED MAN ENTERING LISTS BECAUSE OF INSURFICIENT VOTERS AT THIS TIME. Editor The Star; I was very glad to read my friend, Lawyer Frees' reply to certain charges brought by us against him, because his communication shows that he, like a great many others, who had their minds on the local campaign in Newport News, had no idea of the magnitude and importance of the great battle we engaged in at Chicago for the more than eight million Negroes who are virally distrusted in the South. The question is too big to permit of petty personalities; or local aggrandement, for it raises the issue of political die or death for the Negro in this port of the country. The contesting delegates from Virginia were met by mainly, contesting Celebrates from North Carolina, Georgia, Florida, Mississippi, Texas, and South Carolina, and each delegation was made up of some of the race's strongest and most intelligent leaders, and their fight was waged with such courage, skill, and parliamentary ingenuity that the great Republican National Committee after seating, a large number of colored men from the South, went on record and debarring in the future from the National Convention all "Lily Whites" who hold mass meetings, ward, proctect and other conventions in places in the South where colored men are not allowed to enter. The contesting Negroes, also, by cancumulate generalship, had the National Committee as on record as appointing a committee to five National Committee to investigate conditions in the South affecting the Negro's rights in Republican politics. On this committee doubtless will be that great champion of his race, and the only Negro National Committee man in the world, Henry Lincoln Johnson of Georgia. Talk about selfish motives! Why it is inconceivable that there could have been this great uprising of Negroes throughout the United States had they not been almost divinely in spired to fling defiance in the face of the little coterie of so-called "Lily Whites," who have emasculated the Grand Old Party of its old-time virility. Now, let us examine my brother's letter in the light of practical politics. He was a delegate, honored by the colored convention that convened in Richmond in April, and was on the official calendar as a contestant from the First District. He was contesting the seat of Mr. C. G. Smithers, of Cape Charles who is the rankest "Lily White" in Virginia. When he refused to act with us he elected Smithers, who ten minutes afterwards came out of the Convention and beamed al that "Niggers would never run the Republican party in Virginia." But if my friend had, only resigned without seeking to discredit the entire Virginia delegation it would have been badenough. But when he sent his resignation—not to us who thought he was adding the cause—but to the white chairman, adding in his letter that "It was apparent to all that the leaders of the movement were insincere," he stabbed us in the back and put the entire district in the "Lily white" column. He may not have in --- tended it so, but such was the inevitable effect. But he says we had no ground of complaint or cause for contest in the First Congressional *DISTRICT*. Now, let us see if we did have ground for a contest. The National Committee requires that every call for a Republican mass meeting, district or state convention shall be published in a newspaper of general circulation in the place where the meeting is to be held, and it is also provided that all persons believing in the principle of the Republican party shall be welcome in said meetings. Now, the meetings to elect delegates in Newport News was held without any published call, by the salvation Army Hotel, an exclusively written account which Negroes were barred, and not permitted to enter. At Cape Charles, the news meeting that elected C. G. Smither, the far-famed White Lady" was held at Elkville without public call whatever and after Mr. Smithers had been sent to Cat Chicago because Mr. Price would not contact his seat, he begged to a large delegation of colored men on the outside of the Convention, that he "picked up two of three diggers on his way to Elkville, and had himself certified as a delegate to the Convention." It was impossible for the Neurosci to appeal from the decisions rendered in these meetings and conventions, because they had no notice of the meeting until after they were held, and therefore would have no standing at the Roanoke convention. Beside Chairman Hay's announcement, through the public public, that all technicalities would be waived aside and each case would be heard on its merits. There are at least fifteen Negro votes to every white Republican vote in the First District, so that it will be seen by even a school boy that it is jeopardable that this district would have elected only "lily Whites" to the Convention if colored men had been notified and allowed to participate in the meetings. From these facts it will be seen that when Mr. Free wrote to Chairman Hay, to the effect that we had no grounds of contest and said that he spoke on behalf of the colored voters of the First District and that he repudiated the entire movement, he either spoke without knowledge of the facts in the case, or did not thus ouchly comprehend their significance. Now, just a word as to the entire movement against the "Lily Whites" in the State. In the city of Petersburg in the Fourth Congressional District the district that elected the Hon. John Mercer Langston to Congress, the only Negro who has ever hold that distinction from Virginia, the District Convention was held in a private room of a white hotel, with only six white men present, and no Negroes were allowed to enter. This is the district where Col. Matt. N. Lewis led the fight for the election of Mr. Langston against overwhelming odds, putting the writer in charge of the campaign in Sussex and Greensville counties when he was only a boy fifteen years of age, one of the largest and wealthiest Negro districts in Virginia, where the colored vote is twenty-five to one of the "Lily Whites," and no notice was given to thea loyal black men and, therefore not a delegate, or even an alternate RICHMOND, VIRGINIA, SATURDAY, AUG. 7, 1920 ot color was elected to the National Convention! In the Third Congressional District a large force of policemen were stationed as the courthouses in South Richmond where the meeting was held with instructions from the "Lily Whites" to allow no Negro to enter the convention. And Mr. Lawrence Gramer, on the floor before the National Committee, admit of that Negroes were kept out by policemen, but said that they were disorderly persons kept out to prevent them from disturbing the peace. And this, now standstill, the fact that the colored men seeking entrance to the convention were composed of such me When old man Lathrop of Calpier county, a veteran of the civil war, presented himself at the convention and demanded to know who it was that he who had fed for blood for the freedom of his race and attended every convention since chancipation, had had no notice of the meeting, he was brutally told that the reason why they had not published notice of the meeting was that they did not intend to be both cited with "niners." Mr. Joseph D. Brady, whose father or was honored by the black men of the old Fourth Congressional District himself now derek of the United States District Court of the Eastern District of Virginia in a published statement declared that the time had come for the Republican party in Virginia to become a white man's party to the execution of all Negroes in the party councils. Similar irregularities and expressions from "Lily Whites" all over the State were made concerning the black Republicans, as was shown by hundreds of affidavits filed with our belief, and not denied by the brazen "Lily Whites" whose seats we were contesting at Chicago. Knowing these things, I said publicly, and now repeat, if the Negroes in the Southern States are to be humiliated, ostracised, and read out of the Republican party in the South by a small gang of office-seekers, then their brother in the North, whose votes are counted, will punish the Republican party by the election of its rival until it returns to the landmarks laid out by the fathers. Joining us in this attitude at Chicago were Hon. William H. Lewis, ex-United States Assistant Attorney General, who spoke out boldly before the National Committee; Mr. Edward H. Wright, corporation counsel for the city of Chicago, and almost the entire Negro press of the United States takes this same position. Now, just a word as to the local campaign. As to who authorized J. Thomas Newsome to say that the colored people would bring out no candidate, I gave the same answer that was made to Col. Matt. N. Lewis some time ago in the following language: "Well, the answer is simple. Every colored man who voted a little over a year ago for a simplified form of government authorized J. Thomas Newsome to make the statement. The very heart of the new city charter, for which we all voted, contains (Continued On Eighth Page.) MRS. ROSA THOMPSON IS LAID TO REST.

The bishopsk forces apparently have scored a great military victory over the Poles, who are reported to have been forced to abandon the Bung River line and possibly will be compelled to relinquish Warsaw. According to the latest reports reaching Paris the Polish army, for the time being at least, has gone to pieces and the bishopsk columns advancing in colonnade in accordance with approved German technique, are enveloping Warsaw simultaneously from the north and the east. The Bung River line, Poland's Marne, has gone almost without a fight, compelling the Poles to make a rapid retreat and shorten their front which some of the military experts believe will be likely to bring the Poles to the Vistula and San ravers and involve the abandonment of half the country to the invaders.

Warsaw will have to be calculated within two or three days, in the opinion of the French and British military experts there and the government is expected to be moved than that period probably to the now.

The experts reported that the Polish forces were demoralized on the whole northern and central fronts. Military men said they they had virtually abandoned hope of the Tobey making a stand now. The Polish armistice delegates returned to Warsaw Tuesday night and the Polish government has little hope of the speedy arranging of an armistice. The members of the allied mission are convinced that the soviet government does not intend to negotiate an armistice they reported. NO EXCHANGE OF VIEWS Conversations relative to the Polish situation were begin last evening between Paris and London, according to the Journal. Most of the news papers of this city express the opinion that a new exchange of views between the French and British foreign offices is necessary because of the decision of the soviet government to conduct peace conversations coincident to the negotiation of an armistice with Poland.

VOLUME XXXVII. No. 39 LOYAL RACE The Politic port New Attorney New Motives in Colored Sou OPPOSED COLORED MAN ENTERING LISTS BECAUSE OF INSURPICIENT VOTERS AT THIS TIME. Editor The Star: I was very glad to read my friend, Lawyer Preco's reply to certain charges brought by us against him, because his communication shows that he, like a great many citizens, who had their minds on the local campaign in Newport News, had no idea of the magnitude and importance of the great battle we engaged in at Chicago for the more than eight million Negroes who are virtually distranchised in the South. The question is too big to permit of petty personalities or local aggrandisement, for it raises the issue of political life or death for the Negro in this part of the country. The contesting delegates from Virginia were met by manly, contesting delegates from North Carolina, Georgia, Florida, Mississippi, Texas and South Carolina, and each delegation was made up of some of the race's strongest and most intelligent leaders, and their fight was waged with such courage, skill, and parliamentary ingenuity that the great Republican National Committee after seating a large number of colored men from the South, went on record debarring in the future from the National Convention all "Lily Whites" who hold mass meetings, ward, pre-cinct and other conventions in places in the South where colored men are not allowed to enter. The contesting Negroes, also, by consummate generalship, had the National Committee go on record as appointing a committee of five National Committeemen to investigate conditions in the South affecting the Negro's rights in Republican politics. On this committee doubtless will be that great champion of his race, and the only Negro National Committeeman in the world, Henry Lincoln Johnson of Georgia. Talk about selfish motives! Why, it is inconceivable that there could have been this great uprising of Negroes throughout the United States had they not been almost divinely inspired to fling defiance in the face of the little coterie of so-called "Lily Whites," who have emasculated the Grand Old Party of its old-time virility. Now, let us examine my brother's letter in the light of practical politics. He was a delegate, honored by the colored convention that convened in Richmond in April, and was on the official calendar as a contestant from the First District. He was contesting the seat of Mr. C. G. Smithers, of Cape Charles who is the rankest "Lily White" in Virginia. When he refused to act with us he elected Smithers, who ten minutes afterwards came out of the Convention and boasted that "Niggers would never run the Republican party in Virginia." But if my friend had only resigned without soeking to discredit the entire Virginia delegation it would have been badenough. But when he sent his resignation—not to us who thought he was aiding the cause—but to the white chairman, adding in his letter that "it was apparent to all that the leaders of the movement were insinicere," he stabbed us in the back and put the entire district in the "Lily white" column. He may not have in tended it so, but such was the inevitable effect. But he says we had no ground of complaint or cause for contest in the First Congressional District. Now, let us see if we did have ground for a contest. The National Committee requires that every call for a Republican mass meeting, district or state convention shall be published in some newspaper of general circulation in the place where the meeting is to be held, and it is also provided that all persons believing in the principles of the Republican party shall be well come in said meetings. Now, the meetings to elect delegates in Newport News was held without any published call, in the Salvation Army Hotel, an exclusive white section, from which Negroes were barred and not permitted to enter. At Cape Charles the mass meeting that elected C. G. Smithers, the far-famed Ulysse White" was held at Eastville without published call whatever and after Mr. Smithers had been seated at Chicago, because Mr. Pree would not contest his seat, he boasted to a large delegation of colored men on the outside of the Convention, that he "picked up two of three niggers on his way to Eastville, and had himself certified as a delegate to the Convention." It was impossible for the Negroes to appeal from the decisions rendered in these meetings and conventions, because they had no notice of the meetings until after they were held and therefore would have no standing at the Roanoke convention. Besides Chairman Hays announced, through the public print, that all technicalities would be waived aside and each case would be heard on its merits. There are at least fifteen Negro votes to every white Republican vote in the First District, so that it will be seen by even a school boy that it is inconceivable that this district would have elected only "Lily Whites" to the Convention if colored men had been notified and allowed to participate in the meetings. From these facts it will be seen that when Mr. Pree wrote to Chairman Hay, to the effect that we had no grounds of contest and said that he spoke on behalf of the colored voters of the First District and that he repudiated the entire movement, he either spoke without knowledge of the facts in the case, or did not nor ouchly comprehend their significance. Now, just a word as to the entire movement against the "Lily Whites" in the State. In the city of Petersburg in the Fourth Congressional District the district that elected the Hon. John Mercer Langton to Congress, the only Negro who has ever hold that distinction from Virginia, the District Convention was held in a private room of a white hotel, with only six white men present, and no Negroes were allowed to enter. This is the district where Col. Matt. N. Lewis led the fight for the election of Mr. Langton against overwhelming odds, putting the writer in charge of the campaign in Sussex and Green esville counties when he was only a boy fifteen years of age, one of the largest and wealthiest Negro districts in Virginia, where the colored vote is twenty-five to one of the "Lily Whites," and no notice was given to these loyal black men and, therefore not a delegate, or even an alternate RICHMOND, VIRGINIA, SATURDAY, AUG. 7, 1920 of color was elected to the National Convention! In the Third Congressional District a large force of policemen were stationed at the courthouse in South Richmond where the meeting was held with instructions from the "Lily Whites" to allow no Negro to enter the convention. And Mr. Lawrence Groner, on the floor before the National Committee admitted that Negroes were kept out by policemen, but said that they were disorderly persons kept out to prevent them from disturbing the peace. And this, notwithstanding the fact that the colored men seeking entrance to the convention were composed of such men as Joseph R. Pollard, one of the leading colored lawyers in the State; Dr. Ferguson, a refined and wealthy gentleman of the city of Richmond; Mr. Price one of its leading business men, and a host of the most representative Negroes of the Capital City. When old man Lightfoot, of Culpeper county, a veteran of the Civil war, presented himself at the convention and demanded to know why it was that he, who had shed his blood for the freedom of his race and attended every convention since emancipation, had had no notice of the meeting, he was brutally told that the reason why they had not published notice of the meeting was that they did not intend to be both ered with "niggers." Mr. Joseph D. Brady, whose father was honored by the black men of the old Fourth Congressional District himself now clerk of the United States District Court of the Eastern District of Virginia in a published statement declared that the time had come for the Republican party in Virginia to become a white man's party to the exclusion of all Negroes in the party councils. Similar irregularities and expressions from "Lily Whites" all over the State were made concerning the black Republicans, as was shown by hundreds of affidavits filed with our brief, and not denied by the brazen "Lily Whites," whose seats we were contesting at Chicago. Knowing these things, I said publicly, and now repeat, if the Negroes in the Southern States are to be humiliated, ostracised, and read out of the Republican party in the South by a small gang of office-seekers, then their brethren in the North, whose votes are counted, will punish the Republican party by the election of its-rival until it returns to the landmarks laid out by the fathers. Joining us in this attitude at Chicago were Hon. William H. Lewis, ex-United States Assistant Attorney General, who spoke out boldly before the National Committee; Mr. Edward H. Wright, counsel counsel for the city of Chicago, and almost the entire Nogro press of the United States takes this same position. Now, just a word as to the local campaign. As to who authorized J. Thomas Newsome to say that the colored people would bring out no candidate, I gave the same answer that was made to Col. Matt. N.

Mrs. Rosa Thompson, National Lecturer of the National Ideal Society, passed away, Tuesday, July 27 1920 at her residence, 931 West Clay Street. She was one of the best known fraternal workers in this country and especially interested in the race. Her good work and inspiring speeches will long live in the minds of the people throughout the many States of this country. Mrs. Thompson joined the Nation al Ideal Benefit Society, when it was organized and a little later became one of its greatest workers. She made a host of friends wherever she wept. Truly she built for herself a monument in the hearts of the people. She was a faithful member of the Ebenezer Baptist Church for many years, from which her funeral was preached by Rev. W. T.

The Allies Worried--Want the United States the Conflict. PARIS, August 4. — The bolshevik forces apparently have scored a great military victory over the Poles, who are reported to have been forced to abandon the Bug River line and possibly will be compelled to relinquish Warsaw. According to the latest reports reaching Paris the Polish army, for the time being at least, has gone to pieces and the bolshevik columns advancing in echelon in accordance with approved German technique, are enveloping Warsaw simultaneously from the north and the east.

Martha Jackson, sister of Mrs. William L. Stewart. The remains were taken to her home in New Kei County, Va. for burial. The funeral services were conducted from Mt. Zion Baptist Church, of which she was a member, Sunday, August 1, 1920, at 3 o'clock P. M. Re The Bug River line, Poland's Marne, has gone almost without a fight, compelling the Poles to make a rapid retreat and shorten their front which some of the military experts believe will be likely to bring the Poles to the Vistula and San rivers and involve the abandonment of half the country to the invaders. BOAST OF OFFER TO GERMANY. The experts add that the holsevki are boasting that they will offer the territory of the Polish Sea corridor to Germany, as the holsevki do not recognize the treaty of Versailles. Warsaw will have to be evacuated within two or three days, in the opinion of the French and British military experts there, and the government is expected to be moved within that period, probably to Cracow. The report of the members of the military mission, telegraphed here last night, declared that the Polish army along the river Bug had retreated so precipitately that it did not even destroy the bridges behind it. This river was Warsaw's last line of defense. CALVARY ON THE ALLENSTEIN FRONTIER. A special Russian cavalry corps, the military men reported, was driving southwest along the border of the Allenstein district and had yesterday reached a point 30 miles from Miwan 31 miles northwest of Warsaw, on the only direct railroad to Danzig from the Polish capital. The experts reported that the Polish forces were demoralized on the whole northern and central fronts. Military men said they they had virtually abandoned hope of the Poles making a stand now. The Polish armistice delegates returned to Warsaw Tuesday night and the Polish government has little hope of the speedy arranging of an armistice. The members of the allied mission are convinced that the soviet government does not intend to negotiate an armistice they reported. NO EXCHANGE OF VIEWS' Conversations relative to the Polish situation were begun last evening between Paris and London, according to the Journal. Most of the newspapers of this city express the opinion that a new exchange of views between the French and British foreign offices is necessary because of the decision of the soviet government to conduct peace conversations coincident to the negotiation of an armistice with Poland. U. S. OFFICIALS PACK UP. Officials at the American consulate have packed up their most important record for prompt shipment from this city in case the Russian bolsheviki continue to advance. The task of viseing the passports of the hundreds who desire to leave Warsaw will continue until the consulate is forced to close. NOTICE!

Griffin, of Dallas, Texas arrived in this city about three weeks ago to conduct revival work. He was accompanied by another individual and two or three boys. He had preached forebible discourses at several of the Churches here. He visited The Planet office and explained his work. Dr. Griffin had arranged for a series of evangelistic meetings at the True Reformers' Hall. He had spoken to the Grand Worthy Treasurer W. H. Smith on Friday afternoon between the hours of six and seven o'clock. He stated that he was suffering from indigestion. He went upstairs to the main auditorium and was talking to the two boys at the door, he being seated, when all at once he threw up his hands and expired. The remains were turned over to Funeral Director Clarence P. Hayes by his associate. This man, with the boys suddenly left the city taking with them all of the effects of Rev. Griffin and they have not been heard from since. Investigation brought out the information that Rev. Griffin came originally from Shreveport, La. It is reported that he has a wife and one son. In order to prevent his interment in Potter's Field, the Baptist Churches here have decided to lift collections to defray the expense of the funeral. JACKSON—TAYLOR Mr. and Mrs. Wiliam A.

Negroes Killed Following Reported Attempt to Murder White Woman at Dothan. Dothan, Ala., July 30.—Sills Spinks and Jester Jennings, Negroes, were shot to death by members of a posse at Midland City, near here last night, after an attempt to kill the wife of a white farmer. Spinks was killed, it was said, when he at tempted to snatch, a gun from member of the posse. Jennings was killed later in the night. The Negroes of the little town had been rounded up in an effort to identify the woman's assailant, according to reports reaching here, when the shooting occurred. Andy Spinks, father of Sills Spinks is in jail, at Montgomery, charged with attacking the same woman several months ago. She is to be the principal witness in the case. Mrs. L. B. Dassenger, alone in her home at the time of the attack was approached from behind, and felled by a heavy weapon in the hands of Sills Spinks, who it is alleged, declared to the woman that she would never live to testify against his father, Andrew Spinks, now held in the Montgomery County Jail charged with attempting to criminally assault her. Mrs. Dassenger's condition late today was very critical, but physicians anticipate a recovery on her part. Sills Spinks was captured late in the night by a posse, summoned by the woman's husband, as he was about to start for church, and from information received here today his body was riddled with bullets. Jennings, who was charged with being implicated in the attack on Mrs. Das sanger, was captured by a section of the mob searching for Spinks, but stowed fight and seized a gun from one of his captors, but was shot be fore he could bring it into action and then killed by other bullets. In a general round-up of Negroes in the Grimes section two Negro women were beaten, but will recover. JAPS ACCUSE U. S. OF WAGING ECONOMIC WAR AGAINST THEM. Osaka Chamber of Commerce Demonstrates American Law. Tokyo, July 30.—The Chamber of Commerce of Osaka adopted a resolution today declaring the American shipping law to be economic Imperialism under which foreign steamers and especially Japanese are treated unfairly. The resolution says the law is tautamount to a proclamation of economic war on Japan. Marquis Okuma, former Premier, is quoted today by the Jiji Shimpo as declaring that it would be folly to dream of war between Japan and America, and asserting such a thing to be practically impossible. "Opinions more or less bold and rather hurful to our sensitiveness may be openly ventured in America Marquis Okuma said, "but this is due to great political struggle going on there." The former Premier continued by warning the newspaper readers that Japan should be prepared to receive more protests from America, but said he thought these protests would only be paper ones. --- SUES COLORED TOILET CONCERN (Associated Negro Press) New York, July—The Americany Toilet Co., white, a corporation doing business in this city—manufacturing ladies' toilet preparations, has warned the Ambrosia Toilet, Co., of Cleveland Ohio, a Colored company incorporated in Ohio, that it must cease using the name, "Ambrosia Toilet Co." before September 1st, or be sued for damages, as the white firm of this city by the same name has that name copyrighted as a trade mark. It appears that the colored concern out in Ohio, of which Mrs. Mary Beckwith is president, know nothing of the existence of the white firm bearing the same name. The Colored company manufactures hair preparations for colored women. MISS HALLIE C. BROWN ELECTED HEAD OF FEDERATION (Associated Negro Press) Cleveland, Ohio. July—The election of Miss Hallie C. Brown, of Wilberforce, as President of the National Federation of Colored Women's Clubs, is regarded in Ohio as a well deserved compliment. Miss Brown has been an active worker in the organization from the beginning twenty-five years ago. As in the organization of men, there is considerable politics in the women's organization, and Miss Brown's election is due to an organization of personal friends rather ASPIRIN Introduced by "Bayer" Introduced by "Bayer" to Physicians in 1900 You want genuine Aspirin—the Aspirin prescribed by physicians for nineteen years. The name "Bayer" means the true, world-famous Aspirin, proved safe by millions of people.

Aspirin is trade mark of Bayer Manufacture Monoaceticacidester of Salicylicacid than the desire of the inner circle. Mrs. Talbert, of Buffalo, was prevented from being elected the third time by a clause in the constitution which limits presidents to two terms. There is an effort being made to amend the constitution in this respect. The next session will be held either in Chicago or Richmond, Va, with the chances favoring Chicago. If it is held in Richmond, a great celebration and memorial meeting will be held at the Frederick Douglass home in Anacostia, in the District of Columbia. NEW PAPER IN DETROIT.

Goes Further Than Lodge, Borah or Johnson When He Discards League. Warns Labor to Speed Up, Cautious On Ratificalism and Urges Normaley. Marion, Ohio, July 22.—Peace by declaration as soon as Congress can pass it, and then a new association of the nations to prevent war through justice rather than force, was the potency presented to the American people as a substitute for the League of Nations and Wilsonian doctrines by Senator Warren G.·Harding today when in formally accepting the Republican nomination for president he outlined the issues of the 1920 campaign. Accepting the challenge given by the Democratic party and nominee to make the league the issue, Senator Harding laid down a completely new principle for his party. He asserted his leadership by throwing the league into the discard, going further with his reservations even than Senator Lodge or Senators Johnson and Borah ever thought of going. While he struck as the dominant note in his campaign the league isue, the Senator faced squarely and boldly his determination to have an honest referendum and make an end to flaming and futile promises. FOR DRY LAW ENFORCEMENT Whether the Eighteenth Amendment is to be modified rests with Congress but as long as the law stands it must be strictly enforced he declared. His declaration that modification or repeal is the right of a free people did not bring the exected demonstration in fact, his promise of strict enforcement developed into a big dry demonstration. His little "surprise party," as the Senator called his notification ceremony, has proved an amazing outburst of Republicanism. Ohio is on fire with the Harding sentiment. Marion is tonight exhausted and clat ed. No expression of the wild enthusiasm which has prevailed here since day light this morning can be extrava gant. Three thousand persons crowded in to the pavilion in Garfield Park and probably thirty thousand filled the park enclosure surrounding the hall. Fully as many more in the streets leading to the park and in the downtown sections gave up in their struggle to get within hearing distance. The campagin is off with a bang and a roar. The Senator supplied the issues and the oratory which aroused the people to a high pitch of parisian ardor, and the Ohio public certainly has responded with a variety of pep and enterprise which means big things for the party in the next few months. Divisions in the party had disappeared. Leaders and representatives of all factions and lsms were here today expressing that complete satisfaction with the Senator's keynote speech. LODGE DENOUNCES WILSONISM Senator Harding's address was made in reply to Senator Lodge's short address of notification in which the Massachusetts man spoke a burning denunciation of the Wilsonian ursurgation of power; the autocratic tendency of the Government. His declaration that the League of Nations, on which Wilson and his Neuralgia, Lumbago, Rheumatism, Neuritis and for Pain generally. Always say "Bayer" when buying Aspirin. Then look for the safety "Bayer Cross" on the package and on the tablets. partly still insist, ought never to be accepted by the American people brought forth a great roar of approval. The greatest acclamation of the day greeted Senator Harding's promise to arrange a formal and effective peace as soon as Congress can pass its declaration. Even his complete rejection of the League of Nations and his pledge to carry out his new international principle to banish war did not evoke the genuine outburst which greeted the prospect of early peace. MARION MARCHES APPEAR FIRST Not only was it Marion's big day, but it was Harding's too, and he was as keenly interested in all the proceedings as any man or boy in the city. Up before 6 o'clock, the Senator was out in the front yard awaiting the Marion marching club when its several hundred members, dressed in straw hats, blue coats and white trousers, swung into the court of honor far down the street. The last column was in place and the last plaster cast eagle pelched on top just before daylight. For half a doz en blocks the court was gay with its streamers and greens. The Sema tor raised the flag, dedicating the gay avenue approach to his front porch—the heart of the nation today. For the next six hours the Senator stood most of the time on the porch or in the lawn waving his hands to the marching delegations which filled past in steady lines. As fast as they could get out of the thirty spec trains the visiting pilgrims from far and near formed in line, each with its band, and marched the two miles out to see the candidate. It was like an inaugural day parade. The New York delegation of a hun dred Republicans arrived at 8 o'clock and Samuel S. Koenig led them proudly past the Senator. Each man carried a flag and the delegation gave three lusty cheers for the Senator when he stepped down to the sidewalk to shake hands with Chairmate Koenig and a few of the New York men. The Pittsburgh Republicans made a big hit with the crowd. The 250 men from the Smoky city wore capes and high gray hats which recalled red, white and blue mrrndlu emfwy the McKinley campaign and carried red white and blue umbrellas. The drummer in the psirt of 76 leading a Columbus club was festive in his golfing trousers. The Dayton and Toledo Republican clubs, county organizations from all sections of near by States and a delegation of 1,500 from Cleveland contended for honors in striking costumes. It was band day for the city. The fact that Mr. Harding in his young days had played a cornet inspired the musicians of Ohio to great effort. Every man in this and nearby States who ever footed a horn or heat a drum was pressed into service in the rivalry for big bands. The Caledonia band carried a banner inscribed, "Harding's Boyhood Home Town Band" The Grand Army Band of Canton and the McKinley Mascot Band were out in all their splendor. WHO IS TO BLAME? The Bee desires to place a few facts before its readers and the colored citizens of Washington and ask them who is to blame?? Some few years ago, colored citizens of Washington were permitted to enter the grounds at Cabin John's Bridge. Some few years ago they were permitted to go on the dancing pavilion at Chevy Chase Lake, and they were also permitted to go on to the old German Park above the houn dary on the Seventh Street road, and they were given unlimited accommodations on the Washington and Norfolk steamboats. All of these privileges have been taken from them, except a very limited accommodation is accorded them on the Washington and Norfolk steamboats. The question is, Who is to blame for the taking away of these accommodations? Every theatre in the city was opened at one time to the colored citizens, and today many of the larger theatres don't even want to give him a "jim crow" corner. Who is to blame? Will someone who knows answer this question? Now, since there is so much segregation and discrimination against the colored citizens of Washington, what is the result? They have their own theatres—the Howard, the Foraker, the Hiawatha, the Mid-City and Dulley's You Street Theatre—and one is about to be erected and another in embryo in the square between Thirteenth and Fourteenth streets on You street northwest. It is to be one of the largest theatres in the city. This enterprise is known as the Dudley-Murray United Theatre Corporation, known as the Douglas Theatre, with an authorized capital stock of $500,000. --- RICHMOND PLANET, RICHMOND, VIRGINIA RELIGIOUS EDUCATION THE SUNDAY SCHOOL PUBLISH Richmond, Virginia Printing and Publishing of Church Pure, Music, Bibles, Books, etc. Use Management asks your Pat- Professional and Expert Serv- lature and Periodicals---Sund American Bapt.

YOU WOULDN'T TRY TO TAME A WILD-CAT THE ZIPPER 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 sour bile it crashes into it, causing cramping and nausea. If you feel bibious, headache, constipated and all knotted out, just go to your druggist and get a bottle of Dodson'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 nasty calomel and without making you sick, you just go back and get your money. If you take calomel today you'll be sick and moussed 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. U. S. NAVY'S DIRIGIBLE D—1. WHICH MAD FLIGHT. IT HAS A CRUISING RADIUS OF 1,000 MILES AND 20 JOURS OF SUSTAINED FLIGHT. --- EDW.

After discussing ways and means to get the Ministers and the Churches closer together and how to advance Methodism in the State, the Union adjourned until 8 o'clock. At this hour an evangelistic service was held and Rev. James S.

The Edward Morris Faction of the Grand United Order of Odd Fellows prevailed in their motion, in Philadelphia last week, to have the law points involved in their lawsuit to go to the Supreme Court of the State. This is the very opposite of what the Noel-Davis faction won in April of this year when a jury rendered a verdict in their favor. The Noel faction immediately took an appeal to the Supreme Court of Pennsylvania, which leaves the status of the case the same as it has been since April—two sets of officers, both claiming under the right of law. The Noel faction is planning to hold their B. M. C. in Wilmington, Delaware, pursuant to the adjournment of the New York B. M. C., and John S. Noel has issued a statement to the lodges and members of the Order urging them to attend in such strong numbers as will give the members of this fraternity to understand that "a government of Odd Fellows, by Odd Fellows, shall be restored, that the ancient rights of the lodges of district grand lodges and of B. M. C.'s to rule by a majority and not by one-man-power will be restored to the people. Hon. George Wharton Pepper one of the most distinguished jurists in America who is counsel for the Noel group, and Attorney Gilchrist Stewart, associate counsel, expressed confidence that the Supreme Court will sustain the verdict of the jury ousting the Morris faction. FEAR IRELAND IS ON VERGE OF A CONFLAGRATION. Battles of Sinn Feiners With British Troops Daily More Stubborn. STEADY RE-ENFORCEMENTS COM ING ACROSS CHANNEL Republicans Are Now Firing Country Houses That Might Be Used as Bar racks. NOTHING IN IRELAND SAFE Banks Plead for Soldiers to Guard Bullion and Dublin Is Full of Gunmen Dublin, August 1. — Fears that the Irish situation, which is daily growing more tense, may burst into a general conflagration at any moment are expressed in responsible quarters here. At the present there is virtually no civil law south of the River Boyne, except that administered by Republican courts, but it is pointed out that each day finds the balance between military and a revolutionary rule growing more equal. It is estimated that there are between 60,000 and 80,000 fully equipped British soldiers in Ireland and they are being re-enforced daily by men arriving from across the channel. As a result there are more frequent and more stubborn battles between the troops and the Republicans volunteers who for a time had things much their own way. ARRESTS ARE INCREASING There have also been more arrests for carrying arms and seditions literature, as reports to courts-martial show. It is expected the number of these arrests will increase if the government succeeds in carrying its "drastic measures" in the House of Commons next week. Reprisals by policemen and soldiers on villages suspected of harboring men responsible for attack against the armed forces of the crown are also expected here, the police being particularly aroused over the atacks made on their fellow members. In the meantime, the Sinn Feiners in carrying on their campaign, have THE RICHMOND PLANET, RICHMOND, VIRGINIA The Star Hair Grower.

LOYAL TO HIS RACE (Continued from the First Page.) the solemn covenant that no party class, caucus or combination shall nominate, designate, or in any manner, select any candidate other than by a circulated petition." It must be amusing to intelligent men when my friend speaks of his name going on the official ballot, as his nomination had nothing whatever to do with that, and he could not have gotten on the ballot by a nomination, but only by circulating a petition, as I explained to the mass meeting when they undertook to nominate him. Now, as to any selfish motive, I dismiss that charge with this simple statement: The more than five hundred men who led this movement in Virginia spent their own money and lost their time to attend the various meetings and conventions, financed the entire campaign, without the aid of a single white man, and not a man among them would have any office in the gift of the Republican party. This talk about Democratic newspapers is pure nonsense, for Mr. Prey very well knows that Mr. Goodfry Smith, Mr. Noland, Mr. C. C. Smith and every other white man that was voted for by the Negroes were Democrats, and the only two Republicans on the ticket were scratched by the Negroes. This does not prove at all that they were Democrats, but it rather shows that they were independent voters, who will not hend their knees to every man who happens to 'call himself Republic. Now, just a word as to my loyalty to the Negro race. I have gone up and down this State and in many other states of the United States and defended my people in hostile court rooms, and this frequently without compensation; I have contributed of my means to every worthy civic demand upon me in this city; I contributed more money to the republican club of this city than any other individual voter of Newport News; I went to Chicago at a cost of more than five hundred dollars, and am now ready to join hands with Mr. Pree, or any one else, who is concerned about the Negro race to a greater extent than he is his own political fortunes. Personally and socially, Mr. Preo and I are the very best friends. Professionally our libraries and briefs are open to each other, and there was no opposition to his candidacy, because it was he who offered for the suffrage of the people of the city of Newport News, but I opposed our entering the race at this time for the reason that I thought it wiser to register and wait for a year or so, when our numbers would have been sufficient to give us an opportunity to win in partisan politics. I am of the opinion still, but a majority of the voters thought otherwise, and so I signed. Mr. Preo's petition and would have voted for him had I not been called by a more solemn duty that I owed to the entire Negro race. I conclude this controversy with this statement: I have never been willing to drift with the current of thoughtless public opinion, and I have always had the courage to defy the crowd, and I have not depended for success in my profession upon the love of my clients, but I have sought to make myself indispensable to them by being able to defend them at the bar of the court. I do not seek popularity, for nothing makes me happier than to fight in the open for any principle I believe to be right. Very truly. ARTHUR B. JOHNSON WANTED.
