In fact, the men were flooded with literature designed "educate" the prospective Republican voter and it was commonly reported that a big fund was coming in the State from national headquarters, to be used in ousting the Democrats. Republicans throughout the Shenan- hong Valley were more than confident winning the election, and when the news came in that the Democrats had caught the State by the largest major- ity since the War Between the States, that the Seventh Congressional district had cut a solid Democratic cession to the General Assembly, appointment was written in acer- mine.

The result of the State election in Virginia may be accepted as a decisive revenue for the policy of the administration of the Negro from the Republican party, at least on the plan which was tried out by Representative C. Bascom Skemp and his followers. It there seemed Republicans were ready bent on following out President Harding's policy in trying to build up a new Republican party in the South they evidently went too far, ignoring and cutting loose from the Negro wing of the party. Not only did there "Lilly white" abate the large proportion of Negro voters, who supported the other Republican ticket, headed by John Mitchell, but they failed to hold many of the white. Republicans who resented the anti-Republican policy adopted. The new voters that the Traditional Demo emblem ticket was elected by a plurality of Shout. The Mitchell ticket is reported to have received Shout votes which were sufficient to促成 the most potent attempt to secure the course pursued by the "Lilly white." If the withholdings of Virginias expect to constitute the party, with any president or successor, they must press on different lines from those followed in their district car parks. They should study the policy outlined by Mr. Harding more closely and lay out their plans on broader lines. They cannot win by merely echoing and imitating the old Democratic policy of trying to exclude the Negro from participation in politics on an equal basis. Political and economic equality was at the base of the President's plan for the treatment of the Negro in the South. No party can build up a lasting success on any other basis. If this rebuke at the polls is taken in the prop or spirit, it may point the way for the rehabilitation of Republican in Virginia as well as in other Southern States.

Still the vote on Tuesday night of the election was twenty thousand for the Republican ticket headed by John Mitchell, Jr. and on which Attorney J. Thomas Newson won a candidate for Attorney General and Mrs. Maggie L. Walker candidate for Superintendent of Public Instruction. HEAVY INCREASE This was a heavy increase over the presidential vet. It is estimated that of the thirty wks thousand and real treeed收敛 votes in the State, about six thousand or more infil to pay their pool taxes and were disqualified to vote. In Richmond city alone where John Mitchell, Jr., joined 14,000 votes, were thrown out as to the government on account of being environmentally marked. The vote for Senator E.

Dear Mr. Mitchell, As a former Virginiaian, I wish to extend my hearty congratulations for the wonderful show you and your associates made last Tuesday as the "standard bearers" of the Republican Party. And may I not say that this is not due so much to the number of votes your ticket received, as it is the principle which can of the New York Republicans to enter their ticket in protest to the treatment of the "Lily whites" of the party of your State. The Neighbors of the State of Virginia have pointed the way and they should not be left alone to shoulder the burden of "broadening down silly whiteness" for it; the duty of the New York Republicans of the North to take upon them elves their share of the burden and through their efforts in party coin bills in the north, must assist you in the work they. They must come to read "1844 Webbism" can flourish in Virginia it will soon come to New Jersey and other northern points. Again, congratulating you, I am sir. Yours very truly, JAMES A.

EDITOR MITCHELL'S TRAVELS EDITOR MITCHELL'S TRAVELS (continued from last week) I had to wait for the arrival of the train on the Oakland side and it did not come into the Station until 19 00clock, and had expected to board at earlier than that. Here I met Mr. Marshall Cox, alias Bob Curtro I and Cherokee Tom. He was an expert prize fighter. With both was a well-trained white man of heavy build. His name was Mr. Mike Dorman and unti recently, he had been a pressman on the Los Angeles News. To my astonishment, he introduced himself as a manager for Heavy-weight fighter Dorman. I thought he was joking, but upon peaking to Mr. Dorman, this was confirmed. Mr. Cox showed me Prize-fighter Dorman's picture in his fighting costume. WON TWO ROUTS Mr. Dorman had the week before knocked out Tony Ros' he in a ring of Los Angeles. He had also been successful in another prize-fight and they were in route to Portland Oregon to engage in another contest. Mr. Cox was in the light-heavy-weight class. He had trained Mike Dorman and had prepared his man for the fights in which up to the present he had proven victor. Dorman showed me his hand where he had sprained a finger in his last contest. He had a bulldoos appearance and appeared to be able to take and inflict all kinds of punishments. Marshall Cox was accompanied by his wife, who was from Oklahoma. Mr. Cox as Cheekoee Tom had been starring partner for and had trained Jess Ward and Carl Murrell and other noted fighters and was no movie at the game. RICHMOND, CALIFORNIA For some time, I talked with him and listened to his study is of the pre-flighting game.

CHECKING FERMENTATION In order to prevent fermentation, the grape juice is sterilize or cooked in the bottles. He showed me through the immense $\alpha$ plant. Two bottles of grape juice were opened. I drank敞 openly and then six bottles were given to me by the superintendent, with his compliments. I had been discussing present financial conditions and I now bid good day and vaulted into Mr. Santner's car. On the return trip, I put out records about the beach, and sent in the direction of the Golden Gate. Returning to Richmond, Mr. Santner took me to the colored settlement. Whole pigs, 25 by 100 feet were available for the rich, kind of colored people. MANY CONVENTENCES For the kind of work who available to the dorm plants.

That was the majority claimed 2 days before the election by State Chairman Rupper. A Statement was issued also during the latter days of the campaign by Congressman Siemp, of the 11th Congressional District, to the fact that there was every reason to believe a fair count of votes would be and this year in the State. Statements authorized by leaders in cannock a few days ago that Republicans made no campaign until after the folk convention nominated the late ticket were refuted today by democratic leaders, who recalled that no campaign of 1920 was hardly over before appeals were made in person and by letter to Republican men and women, especially the latter, to pay their poll taxes. In fact, the mails were flooded with literature designed to "educate" the prospective Republican voter and it was commonly reported that a big fund was coming in the State from national headquarters, to be used in ousting the Democrats. Republicans throughout the Shenanah Valley were more than confident winning the election, and when the waws came in that the Democrats had swept the State by the largest majority since the War Between the States, and that the Seventh Congressional district had sent a solid Democratic delegation to the General Assembly, appointment was written across their faces.

This Candidate was DEFEATED by the white people of Virginia by an approximate Plurality of 65,000 votes. VIRGINIA LILY-WHITES ARE REBUKED. The result of the State election in Virginia may be accepted as a decided reverse for the policy of the elimination of the Negro from the Republican party, at least on the plan which was tried out by Representative C. Bascom Slemp and his followers. If these so-called Republicans were really bent on following out President Harding's policy in trying to build up a new Republic can party in the South they evidently went too far ignoring and cutting loose from the Negro wing of the party. Not only did these "Lily-whitees" alienate the large proportion of Negra voters, who supported the other Republican ticket, headed by John Mitchell, Jr., but they failed to hold many of the white Republicans who resented the anti-Republican policy adopted. The result was that the straight Democrat ticket was elected by a plurality of 65,000. The Mitchell ticket is reported have polled 20000 votes which was sufficient to register the moral protest intended against the course pursued by the "Lily-whitees. If the white Republicans of Virginia expect to reorganize the party with any prospect of success., they must proceed on different lines from those followed in their disastrous campaign. They should study the policy outlined by Mr. Harding more closely and lay out their plans on broader lines. They cannot win by merely echoing and imitating the old Democratic policy of trying to exclude the Negro from participation in politics on an equal basis. Political and economic equality was at the base of the President's plan for the treatment of the Negro in the South. No party can build up a lasting success on any other basis.

It is estimated that of the thirty-six thousand registered voters in the State, about six thousand or more failed to pay their poll taxes and were disqualified to vote. In Richmond city alone, where John Mitchell, Jr., polled 1,402 votes, 1,324 votes were thrown out as to the governorship on account of being erroneously marked. The vote for Senator E.

EDITOR MITCHELL'S TRAVELS (Continued from last week) I had to wait for the arrival of the train on the Oakland side and it did not come into the Station until 19 o'clock, and had expected to board it earlier than that. Here I met Mr. Marshall Cox, alias Bob Carrold and Olceice Tom. He was an expert prize fighter. With him was a well set brawny white man of heavy built. His name was Mr. Mike Dorman and until recently, he had been a pressman on the Los Angeles News. To my astonishment, he introduced himself as manager for Heavy-weight fighter Dorman. I thought he was joking, but upon speaking to Mr. Dorman, this was confirmed. Mr. Cox showed me Prize-fighter Dorman's picture in his fighting costume. WON TWO BOUTS Mr. Dorman had the week before knocked out Tony Roselle in a ring at Los Angeles. He had also been successful in another prize-fight and they were on route to Portland Oregon to engage in another contest. Mr. 'Cox was in the light-heavy-weight class. He had trained Mike Dorman and had prepared his man for the fights in which up to the present he had proven victor. Dorman showed me his hand where he had sprained a finger in his last contest. He had a bull-dog appearance and appeared to be able to take and inflict all kinds of punishment. Marshall Cox was accompanied by his wife, who was from Oklahoma. Mr. Cox as Cherokee Tom had been sparring partner for and had trained Jess Willard and Carl Morris and other noted fighters and was no novice at the game. RICHMOND, CALIFORNIA For some time, I talked with him and listened to his analysis of the prize-fighting game. When the train came he and his partner bid me adieu and I saw him off on his trip up the coast to realize much money on his venture should his ma continue his present victorious strides in the fistic wena. I failed to state that Mr. W. H. Sanford had come for me that morning to take me out to Richmond, California, where to my amazement I saw many improvements in this ideal spot on the Pacific ocean and just over from the populous city of San Francisco. It is located in Contra Costa County. I was now in Wine Haven, one of the largest wineries on the Pacific Coast. I met Mr. W. F. Wilson, the Superintendent. He was disgusted with the Prohibition Laws. CHECKING FERMENTATION In order to prevent fermentation, the grape juice is sterilize or cooked in the bottles. He showed me through the immense plant. Two bottles of grape juice were opened. I drank copiously and then six bottles were given to me by the superintendent, with his compliments. I had been discussing present financial conditions and I now bid good-day and vanished into Mr. Sanford's car. On the return trip, I got out, roamed about the beach and gazed in the direction of the Golden Gate. Returning to Richmond, Mr. Sanford took me to the colored settlement, where, lots, 25 by 100 feet were available for the right kind of colored people MANY CONVENIENCES For this kind of work was available in the large plants. A church has been erected for those, who had already located there. Lots could be secured on time payments and bungalows would be erected by the company. The streets were wide, street car service available and every reasonable inducement offered to the right kind of people. A letter sent to Mr. W, H. Sanford, Richmond, California would bring full in formation. I was deeply impressed with what Isaw there. But now I wait leaving San Francisco and Oakland by the Southern Pacific and it would be from that Tuesday night until either Saturday or Sunday that I could hope to reach St. Louis, where my enthusiastic friends were anxiously awaiting me. Bidding Editor Watkins good-bye. I disappeared in the doorway of the Pullman sleeping car, got into the birth prepared for me and got all about the tiresomeness of that long journey that was before me. JOHN MITCHELL, JR Rev. Luke Jones Here. Rey, Luke Jones of Hot Springs, Va., arrived in the city Sunday. He is Pastor of Piney Grove Baptist church and reports his church in a flourishing condition. He is the guest of his brother Mr. Mack C. Jones, 1502 W. Leigh street. PRICE, FIVE CENT$ BOOTLEGGERS OPEN FIRE ON SHERIFF AND JUSTICE. Dinwildle Officers Wounded While Searching for Still.

The only score of the game came as the result of a drop kick by A. Moore from Institute's 25 yard line in the second period. Twice the Seminary by a succession of off-tackle plays and cross bucks and marshed down the field only to fail to make a touch down. On the first occasion, Watson actually carried the ball over. He was tackled by an opponent, however, just inside the goal line, and the whistle blew immediately. As he fell he stretched across the goal line but the referee brought the ball back to the spot where the whistle had blown. This was the fourth down, and the ball went over. Holland kicking out of danger. Again Seminary rushed the ball down the field, only to be held when within the ten-yard line. On this third occasion, Quarterback Moore used what seemed to him to be the best way of scoring, kicking the ball from a difficult angle at the side of the field, the ball clearing the bar by only a few inches. The game was a hard fought contest with all of the advantage and most of the breaks in Seminary's favor. The Dragons time after time tore huge holes in the opposing line, but West Virginia seemed to be always there with the strength when her goal was in imminent danger. Watson again stood out for his star playing both on the offense and the defense. He is probably the best defensive back that Seminary has ever had and added to this, he is a very consistent gainer. A. Moore's superb generalship however, was the one important factor in the game. Colay for Seminary and Harris and Cardwell for Institutes also showed up well, the latter two contributing several spectacular dashes. The game was played under very adverse conditions. Officials who had been selected early were, because of certain conditions not present, Dr. Morrison of Howard was secured by the Seminary to handle the game at the last moment, but West Virginia refused to accept his services on the ground that he was objectionable and that they intended to play his team next year. In order to satisfy the West Virginia Coach and to have a game for the spectators who had come from out of the city, it was necessary to use white officials, a procedure that Virginia Seminary stands unalterably opposed to. The attitude of Coach Brock of West Virginia in dog Coach Morrison, whom everyone ad- Coach Morrison, whom everyone admits to be a football authority was considered by some unwarranted and altogether unsportsmanlike.

C. and Hampton Institute played at Hampton under ideal weather conditions and before an enthusiastic audience of over two thousand people, resulted in a victory for Howard by a score of 34 to 0. The Hampton Institute team which averaged considerably lighter than the Howard team', whose average went to 185 pounds, played well. Hampton was saved many points by David L.

The second touchdown was made on another forward pass—Kean to Contee. Hampton in the third period kicked to Howard across Howard's line for a touchback (ball out 20 yards).

Philadelphia, Pa., Oct. 31.—Because of the responsible positions held by most of the promoters of the African cruise, purpose to carry a body of church, professional and business people to Liberia, West Africa, in December, we feel that the public generally is due a statement. Especially is this true since there has been much doubt as to the possibilities of such a crise, and even a hint that it is another skin game to get the peoples money. As business manager therefore, the under signed wishes to make this statement, The cruise was organized first, to carry a group of people to West Africa who want to know the facts and possibilities of that section of the world. That the greatest possible benefit may be derived, His Excellency, President King, has agreed to hold a "Convocation of Chiefs" in order that to tourists may come in close contact with leading natives of the Interior. Secondly to convince the lesser informed public that Africa, like was America 400 years ago, is inhabited by a people who are unable to maintain responsible Government and therefore, like America belongs to the people capable of organizing and harmonizing in a way which will convert that Continent from a virgin stretch of plain and forest, into one of potential energy act unily contributing its share toward the resources necessary to support and maintain a high state of civilization. Thirdly to actually carry to Liberia the only place in Africa where American Negroes may emigrate except Abyssinia—such families as are able, and want to move there. In other words, much action and little talk. At first, the public interest seemed such that we decided to charter a steamer for the cruise. Accordingly, the "S. S. Tunisian" of the Canadian Pacific Ocean Service Ltd., was contracted for. This boat required a minimum of 350 passengers. Later, out of more than 2,000 applications, less than 200 actually deposited on their passages. We were forced therefore, to cancel our Canadian Pacific contract, and cast about for another method of transportation, or break faith with those who had paid and have a right to expect us to carry out our contract with them. We have been successful in *l* rearranging in such a way as will add to rather than detract from the trip. We have contracted to have our party carried by regular line, on first class North Atlantic passenger steamer to Liberia, touching Europe, and transshipting either in England, France, or Spain, thus making the original ports of call we have advertised, giving a three week visit in Liberia, and returning the party to New York at about the same figure quoted at first—$495.00 up for the round trip. Registered and 'prospectus passengers therefore, may feel certain that their interests have been guarded, and that they may spend the holiday season in Africa as planned.? The enterprise is indorsed by most of our characters of National note, many of whom have secured tickets. I quote names of a few of the more prominent of the passengers in an inclosure. Trusting that this will reassure you that this venture has already proved a success, and that Africa will, then, it, begin to occupy the place in our daily life it so rightfully deserves, I wish to remain Sr. A portion of the passenger list for the African Cruise: Rev.
