VOLUME XXXVIII, NO. 51 DIED HIS Tragic End Fight--T and Nin Defies Arrest a Burning C Was Sing Orange Va., Oct. 23. Not since the stirring days of the War Between the States has this community witness a pitched battle of such proportions as that which was seen here this morning, when a posee traced a Neptune, Water Ware, to a barn on the outskirts of the town set fire to the harm and burned him alive. Ware had been charged with killing Sheriff W.C. Bond of Orange County and J. M. Mayer chief of police of Orange. In the exchange of shots which preceded the burning, nine members of the posse were wounded, none of them serious. Sheriff Bond and Chief Bayer left Orange Courthouse at 2:30 o'clock yesterday afternoon with a warrant to the arrest of Ware, who was charged with illegally operating a still. They made the trip in a taxi cab Ware was absent when the guilvers arrived. They instructed the driver of the automobile to remain at the house while they searched the surrounding territory. He remained at his post for several hours, when they did not return at about 4 o'clock he decided to return to Orange. DRIVER BECAME ALARM 59 At 11 o'clock last night he went to the home of Chief Boyer to inquire after him. Mrs. Boyer informed him that the chief had not returned. Beginning alarmed the taxicab driver, whose name could not be learned, told a number of residence of Orange that suspected the officers had met withoul play, and quite a crowd collected and waited in the village for the coming of down Shorty after 5 o'clock morning the posse greatly augmented with the breaking of day set in search of Bond and Boyer. Knowing that the two officers had left the afternoon before in search of the crowd went directly to his home a little more than a mile from courthouse and found the bodies of the two men lying in pools of blood far from the Ware house. Tables were only a few feet apart. A Pet which had penetrated the breast probably piercing the heart had killed herif Bond, while Chief Boyer had been literally riddled with sunshot. The bodies of the victims were at once remove to the undergarments rooms of Preddy and Wilbiree, in orange.

Think 'b' the Republican Party Should be Punished for Trouble Breeders Section 1332, of the Code of Virginia, reads as follows: "If any person consigns with another to incite the contested population of the State to acts of violence and war, against the white population or to incite the white population of the State to acts of violence and war, against the colored population, he shall, whether such insurrection be made or not, be punished by coiffment in the penitentiary not less than five nor more than ten years. On page four of the "Platform" of the lily white Republican party we find this sentence "any person, white or colored, who seeks to arouse prejudice and antagonism is covering the seeds of those disorders which bring shame upon this nation and is an enemy of the State." Under the head of "Ambitable relations" between the races, we find this statement: "Any terminating or mixture of the races in this State is impossible." We rise to ask, for what purpose was the last sentence quoted in the platform, if not to mention "a race antagonism?" what else could it have been inserted for except to "appeal to race prejudice"? If any sentence that the colored people of Virginia, constituting less than one third of 1st population, can control our State and local government, or that they desire to do so is a potent antidiversity and a disruption both races "what interest was it expected to conserve by the insertion of any reference to the race question at all?" Every word and sentence in the platform of a political party should have an object and a meaning, and so what is referred to nurture it rather be for the purpose of appealing to "race prejudice" and meaning "race antagonism," or it is a "patent abolishment." To in one breath "condemn without qualification all persons, who in a rockiest disregard of the public practices to produce race intolerance and reprep to prejudice, "and in another write that which suggest that there is a desire on the part of the colored people of the State to intermingle in mix," in a social way," with the white people of the State is, in our opinion, nothing but an attempt to do the very thing which is condemned, and a work in an underhand way, to do it the harmony existing between the best of both races in Virginia who are going their several ways," distinct as the billows but one as the sea, and certain dangerously near to violating that section of the statutes designed to prevent or punish those which are calculated to be the necessary consequences of the covert appeal in the public platform to the worst situations of both races. If any social intermingling or nature of the races in this State is impossible then it is an established fact, and if so, why make allusion to what the very suggestion of the Cr RICHMOND, VIRGINIA, SATURDAY, OCTOBER 29, 1921 stance of the desire of which on the part of either race, is "a slender upon the into Nigence of both race." What does a reference to this delicate question show but a wish to make political capital out of a social question, that has been long settled in this State by law, custom and individual choice. The Republican party has undated choice in an underhand way, to "protect" the threshold portion of the colony population of the State to near of violence and war against the white population and "to infinate the thoughtless portion of the white population of the State to gears of violence and war against the colored population," and for that reason the whole gang of trouble breeders should be published by continuation in the penitentiary for not less than five nor more than ten years. The white and colored race of this State have some how, manmade to injit it any differences that have arisen between them and will continue to do so and he is a friend of neither race who, for the sake of office, would attempt to throw a monkey wrench into the machinery of racial peace and good will. It is the duty of the people of this State regardless of party, to rise up and登own these new Daniels" come to judge men" and who are seeking "to atone race prejudice" and race antagonism" by endeavoring to disturb the very coral relations existing between the best of both races in Virginia, "and are cowering the reeds of those disorders which bring shame upon the na'f' in t₂" to doing show themedoes to be the worst enemies of the State. For the continued peace of this State the Republican party must act as a cut constituted, like old Carthus, "Must be Destroyed." It is the solum duty of every man and woman from mountain to sea, in Virginia to recognize and denounce the devil and REV. W. B. REED'S COMMENT Hen, John Mitchell, Jr. Eller Richardm Planet, Richmond, Va. Dear Mr. Mitchell, I wish to congratulate you upon your nomination for Governor of your State by the Republican Party thereof. A worthy and respected honor wholly bestowed by self-reciting people, and the Colored man who does not support your ticket to be made a "Fruity" of the unbreakable Ku Klux Kruptes. The brave stand taken by the real men of Virginia god of Georgia will do more toward the uniting of our forces North and South, than all the bowling and opening of Mr. Harding to Lily Whites, from now until time for Gabriel's port on the program. I went to Mr. Harding's porch and with bowed heads, we asked God to send him to the White House though the Lord has answered our prayers. Mr. Harding has bonded us as a scorpion. Let him do his woes! Next fall is coming and 1924 will soon roll around. I have been a "Died in the wood Rebellion" but from now on I am a "Lily black Republican" and a red nose Democrat who is my open enemy, really looks a little better than this Lily White animal who is a Bear from the beginning.

The Ninth Annual meeting of the Negro Organization Society will convene jointly with the Negro State Teachers Association in Cavary Baptist church, Danville, Va. November 15th, 1921.

Moreover there will be the stirring report from representatives of School Deputies women Longues of what is being done to improve Colored Schools in in Virginia from Eastern Shore to the Southern S.W. and from the Northern Neck to the Piedmont District of the State. There will be reports from churches, lodges and other terrestrial organizations depicting an graphic detail a wonderful story of human progress through struggle. The Colored Citizens of Danville have formed a spondid commissive of fifty or more of the representative people of that city to make special arrangements for this meeting. R.W. G. W. Goode, pastor of Cavary Baptist Church is Chairman of this Committee with the following persons serving as his able assistants: A FULL ENDOSSEMENT FROM MASSACHUSETTS Hon, John Mitchell, Jr. The Richmond Planet Richmond, Va. My Dear Mr. Mitchell. I have followed, with such information as I were available, your timely and courageous campaign in your State protecting against the "Lily White" Republican movement, and while somewhat familiar with your local conditions, it does seem that you are rendering an spedial service to the Race by your course. You teach the Race a needless lesson of money investment against your injustice. How any man, and especially a Republican President, can remain silent in the face of such a situation is enough to give us cause. I am desirous of obtaining a copy of the Lily White platform and a copy of your party and will be obliged if you will forward the same to above addresses. Please find two dollars for submission to the Planet beginning with our rent gambler and accept my best wishes for a special vindication of your cruise. A LESSON FROM TULSA The phrase from jail at Tulsa, Okla. of Dick Rowland, the Negro bell boy, who ailed attempt to assault a white girl, was the spark that seized the disgraceful riots in the oil city last summer, is the final chapter in a story that shows the vicious infliction and brutal stupidity of mob subjec- not one word of evidence was added implicating Rowland in the charge brought against him and it was not even demonstrated that the girl in the case had made the complaint she is said to have made. The Negro's complete innocence was established. This is not an isolated case. It is typical of the sort of "mistakes" that turn the riffraff of cities into mob with ropes and guns and torches. A drunken kid whisps to a few other louts that be heard someone say that A Negro had attacked a white girl and the riot is on. No attempt at investigation, no attempt to let the law look in to the matter. It is to be hoped that that Tulsa crime will be taken to heart in other sections of the United States, where contempt of courts; judges and juries is so great among certain classes that mob law must be invoked in order to get "justice." EDITOR MITCHELL'S TRAVELS EDITOR MITCHELL'S TRAVELS (Continued from last week) AT LOS ANGELES. I arrived at Los Angeles, California in the day morning. The train was late and it was 10 o'clock when I received Mr. J, C. Bank's, Dr. J, A. Somerville and others who had come to be time. I arrived into Dr. Somerville Chandler care and after arrival im about my baggage was soon on my way to the palatial hotel Alex- drie where I secured the official badge of the American Bankers' Association and the handsome leather souvres card case containing invitations to the various festivities of the week. Then I was carried to Dr. Somerville's cousy residence, which was to be my home for the week. PHOTOGRAPHED ON SHORT NOTICE To my astonishment, a photographer was awaiting me and I posed for a photograph to be used in making a cut, for the Western Dispatch of Los Angeles. A few moments later, Mrs. Soumerville carried me in the car to the Philharmonic Auditorium, where the American Bankers' Association was then in session. President John S. Drum, who has been a most popular official and able presiding officer hold the gavel. It is difficult to describe the scene. This spacious theatre building has four tiers or rows of cabbies or matricle arranged in crescent formation one above the other. The stage is unusually wide and the seating capacity of the house appears to be in excess of 2000. The wide walls and ceiling have a golden embellishment with hundreds of electric lights. Three over the stage have golden circular trinues, while the balconies were decorated with flares and embens. A R. A. for the American Bankers' Association.

Hon. John Mitchell, Jr. The Richmond Planet. Richmond, Va. My Dear Mr. Mitchell.—I have followed, with such information as was available, your timely and courageous campaign in your State protesting against the "Lily-White" Republican movement, and while somewhat unfamiliar with your local conditions, it does seem that you are rendering a splendid service to the Race by your course. You teach the Race a needed lesson of manly resentment against gross injustice. How any man, and especially a Republican President, can remain silent in the face of such a situation is enough to give us cause. I am desirous of obtaining a copy of the Lily-White platform and also one of your party and will be obliged if you will forward the same to above address.

Of Dick Rowland, the Negro bell-boy, whose alleged attempt to assault a white girl, was the spark that set ablaze the disrespectful riots in the oil city last summer, is the final chapter in a story that shows the vicious injus tice and brutal stupidity of mob rule. Not one word of evidence was adduced implicating Rowland in the charge brought against him and it was not even demonstrated that the girl in the case had made the complaint she is said to have made. The Negro's complete innocence was established. This is not an isolated case. It is typical of the sort of "mistakes" that turn the riff-riff of cities into mobs with ropes and guns and torches. A drunken lout whisps to a few other louts that he heard someone say that a Negro had attacked a white girl and the riot is on. No attempt at investigation, no attempt to set the law look in to the matter. It is to be hoped that the Tulsa crime will be taken to heart in other sections of the United States, where contempt of courts; judges and juries is so great among certain classes that mob law must be invoked in order to galt "justice." EDITOR MITCHELL'S TRAVELS (Continued from last week) AT LOS ANGELES. I arrived at Los Angeles, California Tuesday morning. The train was late and it was 10 o'clock when I greeted Mr. J. C. Banks, Dr. J. A. Somerville and others who had come to meet me. I vaulted into Dr. Somerville's Chandler car and, after, arranging about my baggage was soon on my way to the palatial Hotel Alexander drive where I secured the official badge of the American Bankers' Association and the handsome leather souvenir card case containing invitations to the various festivities of the week. Then I was carried to Dr. Somerville's cosy residence, which was to be my home for the week. PHOTOGRAPHED ON SHORT NOTICE. To my astonishment, a photographer was awaiting me and I posed for a photograph to be used in making a cut, for the Western Dispatch of Los Angeles. A few moments later, Mrs. Sommerville carried me in the car to the Philharmonic Auditorium, where the American Bankers' Association was then in session. President John S. Drum, who has been a most popular official and able presiding officer hold the gavel. It is difficult to describe the scene. This spacious theatrical building has four stairs or rows of balconies or galleries arranged in crescent formation one above the other. The stage is unusually wide and the seating capacity of the house appears to be in excess of 3000. The side walls and ceiling have a golden embellishment with hundreds of electric lights. Those over the stage have golden semicircular fringes, while the balconies were decorated with flags and emblems. A. B. A. for the American Banker's Association.

John Mitchell, Jr.: Permit me to warmly felicitate you, gifted son of Virginia, upon your selection to lead the victorious hosta of Virginia Colored Republicans at this pivotal moment. No man in the great Commonwealth is better pre pared than you, either by training or character to marshal the ranks who fight against the most disgendous 'lily whitism' that ever disgraced a State. Let cowards take their seats and sometime conservatives hide their faces in shame while the only progressives in the Old Dominion take the step that shall set men free. ON A WESTERN TOUR Doubless thousands of messages of congratulation have paired in upon you but I cannot refrain while touring the golden West as a loyal son of the State where Patrick Henry's golden voice rose to the god loss of liberty and where Thomas Jefferson, invincible patriot, wrote with flaming pen, from adding my feeble word to the mighty number that must cheer your soul. And sir, I had planned to remain on my present tour for eight weeks. But a month has already clipped. Yet in another week I shall turn my vagrant steps home that in the last ten days of the campaign I may serve you where you bled me go. In 15 States I have acquainted the people from the public platform with your gallant, fight, and 50,000 have cheered you through the mists of a thousand miles WILL RETURN AND SPEAK Tonight I board my great iron steed for the plains of Missouri and the golden grain fields of Kansas. In another week I shall set my face toward the Sunny South to ascertain if the light of freedom does not still burn in the breast of every loyal Negro in the State that we both love. I am, Most cordially yours, CHARLES SATCHELL, MORRIS, J1 COLORED REPUBLICANS WILL RESPECT DEMOCRATS --- Colored People Appland Candidate Newsome's Excoriation of Lily White Ticket --- Newport News, Va., Oct. 22.—At a District mass-meeting here last night, J. Thomas Newsome, candidate for Attorney-General upon the colored Republican ticket, was enthusiastically applauded as he stated, the Negroes attitude in the present political campaign in Virginia. The colored lawyer said we are not going to vote for Mr. Trinkle, because we are not Democrats, but we respect the Democratic party for its cander. It never fool's us, we know where it stands but we will not vote the Lily White ticket because of its duplicity. They will not tolerate us in party council but they beg us to vote the ticket on election day. We will vote for John Mitchell, Jr., who welcomes all Republican white and black, male and female without regard to creed, condition or color.

The recently erected home of Mr. and Mrs. Smith in Morgan Park is a beautiful site and was greatly admired by the many visitors in the park last Sunday afternoon who attended anniversary exercises held at Bethesdon Baptist church, 110th street and Vincones avenue. FULTON NOTES The Pastor of Mt. Calvary Baptist Church requested the members and friends to raise at least $500 by the fourth Sunday in November which is the termination of our annual rally. The same was adopted by the Church. Why we should raise that amount or more? The Church has been dedicated to God as a place for us to meet and praise and worship His Holy Name. The same is left in our hands for upkeep in a lawful way. Second it is our home and a man who will not look out for his home is worse than an infidel. Lastly, it was a request of our Pastor and adopted by the Church. How are we to raise that amount? Each member is asked to give no less than $2, friends likewise, if you feel that way. You can pay to Deacon Frank Jeter 25 cents each Sunday until the termination of the rally and you won't feel the burden hardly, if at all. When will the rally end? The fourth Sunday in November 1921 at 8:30 P. M. Roy, C. A. Cobbs, Pastor; Nathaniel Yates, Church Clerk; A. D. Daniel, Chairman of the Deacon Board; John Barber, Chairman of Trustee Board.

Many friends were present including Mr. John Pierce, who expressed his desire of uniting with us. Our brother is a convert, only a babe in Christ. He was convicted during the preaching of a funeral by Rev, Cobbs about a month ago. Sunday night we listened to a fine sermon by the Rev, Charles H. Fox, Pastor of Mt.

Thirteen years ago twelve leading physicians of my city treated me for Kidney trouble and gravel without the desired benefit. These doctors advised me to be operated on, as that was the only chance for me. I was advised to go and get some of L. J. Hayden's Herb Medicines and try to fore be operated on. I did so, and in twenty four hours after using his medicines I passed at least a half dozen gravel, some as big as a large pen. Since that time I have not suffered with the gravel. I highly recommend L. J. Hayden's medicine to all suffering humanity. I am, J. A. PAGE, 4 Auburn Ave., Richmond Va. Richmond, Va. July 8, 1915.

I was cured of a very bad case of Rheumatism by two bottles of L. J. Haydon's wonderful Herb Medicine, after suffering a long time with the dreadful disease.

Hayden of Remarkable Cure—Doctors Had Given Her Up—A Few Bottles Accomplish Marvelous Results L. J. Hayden, Richmond, Va. Dear Sir,—A grateful heart and an appreciation of your medical skill prompts me to make a statement of my daughter's case. I can truthfully say I believe your medicine saved my daughter's life. When she began your medicine she had been given up by several doctors, and my friends had lost all hope of her recovery. She had suffered seven months with dropsical trouble and Bright's disease, her body swelling to an enormous size, totally blind for several days at a time, also delirious at her worst stages, finally going into spasms, as many as twenty-five or thirty in one hour, going from one right into another; her skin peeled off, also losing her finger nails, and continuing in that condition for months. Such was her condition when I commenced on Mr. I., J. Hayden's remedies. After using his medicines only nine days she began to improve, and now at the end of two months there is no symptom nor sign of the old disease. Be assured that whenever I have it in my power I shall recommend your invaluable remedies. I thank you a thousand times for what you have done for my daughter and for the kindness which you have extended to me throughout. Wishing you long and continued success, I am, with much gratitude, Yours truly, (Signed) J. WILSON, 417 W. Seventh St., Manchester, Va. L. J. Hayden: I wish to add to your testimonial that your medicine has cured me of Lumbago with the use of six bottles. I have suffered for three years and my family doctor told me that he could not do me any good. I began taking your medicine November 15, 1903, and I have not lost a day since with Lumbago. I can't praise your medicine too highly. Yours truly, W. H. MILLER, Highland Park, Richmond, Va. Mr. L. J. Hayden: Dear Sir,—I have tried four bottles of your Blood Purifier for Rheumatism, and I feel that it has made a final cure of me. I know not how to thank you enough for that great relief. Enclosed please find money for one bottle of your Blood Purifier for a friend of mine. Please send it at once, and oblige. Yours truly. J. P. DEANS, Colerain, N.
