THE RICHMOND PLANET Virginia State Library VOLUME XXXIX, NO. 17 COMMENDS CANADIAN JUSTICE IN BULLOCK DECISION Canadian Justice in the case of Matthew Bullock the colored prisoner held at Hamilton, Ontario, on a murder charge preferred by yAmerican authorities, is not likely to be altered or diverted from its usual course as a result of the hot declaration by Gov. Morrison of North Carolina that he is not going to try his State's honor and integrity "before any judge in any foreign country" in order to obtain Bullock's extradition. Judge Sudder at Hamilton has declined to grant the extradition of a man described by Governor Morrison as a "desperate criminal" until some evidence other than abduvails shall have been submitted to prove that the charges against Bullock have sufficient basis to justify this returning to the United States. In this case, as in others in which serious charges are made against a prisoner held for extradition, the custo mary rule has been followed and oral evidence has been requested. This assures justice to the prisoner, a requisite equally important in the eyes of the law as justice to the State of North Carolina. It is a protection against political persecution, but it is not a hindrance to legitimate extradition proceedings. If the man is a deserate criminal it should be no more difficult to produce witnesses to prove this fact to the satisfaction of the Canadian authorities than it will be later to obtain the testimony necessary to convict the defendant on his trial in the courts of North Carolina. CAROLINA GOVERNOR SCORES CANADIAN DEMAND. Hamilton, Ont., Feb. 24.—I am going to stick to my guns. This was the answer which Judge Snider made (tonight to the declaration of Governor Morrison, of North Carolina, that his State "would not send witnesses to have a trial before any Canadian court," and that if Canada would not honor "in the regular way" request for extradition of Matthew Bullock, colored charged with attempted murder in connection with a race riot in Norlina, N.C., he hoped the American State Department would not request North Carolina or any other self-respecting State to honor a Canadian request. Interviewed at the Hamilton Club, after having, in day refused to honor the American warrant unless witnesses were brought from North Carolina within a week to testify as to the nature of the charge, Judge Snider said. "When the case was first opened, I told the United States consul that he must produce oral evidence. I refuse to take affidavits." Canadian officials asserted that the customary procedure would be followed, and that Bullock's fate would not be affected by the fact that international interest had been aroused. WILL NOT MEET COURT REQUEST Raleigh, N. C., Feb. 24.—Governor Cameron Morrison telegraphed Acting Secretary of State Fletcher at Washington today, stating that he will not send witnesses to testify at the extension trial of Matthew Bullock, at Hamilton, Out., which was suggested in a message from the acting secretary yesterday. Bullock is wanted in this state in a charge of attempted murder in connection with a race riot at Norlinge, N. C. "North Carolina will not make an appearance through attorney in any Canadian courts" Governor Morrison told in his telegram. "It will not send witnesses to have a trial before any court there." SUGGESTS RETALIATION "If Canada will not honor our request in the regular way and you can, through diplomatic channels, convince them they should do so, then I誓你 will not hereafter request North Carolina or any other self-rejecting State of the Union in any way to honor a request from Canada. "If treaty relations with Canada are not such as to guarantee the return to this country of desperate criminals like Matthew Bullok k without the States of this Union being subjected to the humiliation of having to appear be fore some judge in a petty judicial proceeding in Canada, it is certainly a distressing situation. I am not going to try North Carolina's honor and integrity before any judge in any foreign country. "If there is any error in form or regularity of application for the extradition of this fugitive from justice," said the Governor, "I will be glad to have it corrected, as far as correction can be made in truth." WASHINGTON SAYS ITS UP TO CANADA. Washington, Feb. 24. The extradition from Canada of Matthew Bullock wanted in North Carolina on a charge of attempted murder is in the hands of Canadian courts, according to State Department officials. These officials said today that the treaty between the United States and Canada providing for extradition of alleged criminals specifies that a principal case of an extraditable offense must be made out by either nation seeking a fugitive from justice. There have been instances in past history when Canada has accepted alludias submitted by American authorities and has turned over into the custody of the United States the person or persons thus sought. The matter of requiring oral testimony regarding the offense for which Bullock is sought, however, officials said, is one purely for the Canadian court to decide and should that court require the presence of witnesses to testify regarding the offense for which Bullock is sought this government can not well take any other position than acknowledge the court's authority. Double Birthday Party. One of the finest entertainments given in South Richmond for a number of years was that of the birthday party of Messrs. Arthur Lewis and Edward Miller at the residence of the former's mother, Mrs. Mary L. Lewis, 21 Midlothian Pike, on Tuesday night, February 22nd. The parlors were brilliantly lightened and the handsomely evening gowned ladies and the tall-dressed young men presented a beautiful scene. Fine music was furnished by the five-piece orchestra of Mr. Clem Scott and the guests enjoyed themselves to the utmost until about 3 o'clock A. M. Messrs. Reginald Hatcher and Floyd Langhorne served the larger number present and they deserve great credit for the unique manner in which they served the dainty menu. All the delicacies of the season were served abundantly and the guests regretted when the hour came for departure. REV. BETTS MAKES STATEMENT Claims His Expulsion Was Wrong Leaves It to the Public. In reply to the exclusion of a Colored minister by the Shilo Baptist Church of Alumagro, Va. which was published in your Register and also Daily Bee January 21, 1922. To the readers of the said paper, I feel that I would do myself an act of injustice should I fail to reply to that article since the writer failed to state why I was expelled and my license revoked from the Shiloh Baptist church, that you should know the cause. I shall state first that I fail to get, a fair deal by the moderator on the night of my trial There were fifteen Baptist Churches represent in the mutual council, and several other ministers of the Gospel present and when a committee of finding was chosen, the Moderator selected them from five churches which, consisted of five preachers and four deacons from the same school or schoolmates of the said Rev, M. C. Allen who was involved against me in a personal difficulty. In selecting this committee, several able ministers who had been preaching many years were overlooked and younger ones accepted. My charge for which I was expelled and licenses revoke as as follows: First, for carrying the church pastor, Rev, M. C. Allen to court to be tried by unbelievers. I shall say that the Rev, Renl owe me (W, M. Bette) a big bill for groceries, which he failed to pay for and refused to give any explanation what he would do about it. Second charge, for inferring or saying that I believe that the pastor, Rev. Allen which is the principal of Alma-gra, Va. public school, was guilty of in sulting a little girl. In refrence to this Rev. M. C. Allen gave one of the school girls 15 cents in school and her mother brought the money back and asked him not to do so again. Third charge for giving aid and sympathizing with those who sought to blacken the pastor's character. How and what ways Rev. M. C. Allen had threatened the father and brother of the girl and that they better not approach him about the matter and the father of the five children wanted to get his children back in school, when he came to me (W. M. Betts) and asked me would I phone to one of the county school trustees to tell him that he wanted to see him. I phoned for him at his expense. For the charges stated above I was expelled from the church. Aside from taking him to court. I deny the other charges and leave the public to decide whether I was fairly treated. (Signed:) —REV. W. M. BETTS. RICHMOND, VIRGINIA, SATURDAY, MARCH 4, 1922 WHITE COLLEGE MEN STUDY RACE ISSUES An Open Letter to the College Men of the South from the University Commission on Southern Race Questions. The University Race Commission in its last letter to the college students of the South called attention to the fact that college men are expected to assist in moulding public opinion and to cooperate in all same efforts to bring about a more tolerant spirit, more generous sympathy, and larger measure of good will and understanding between the best elements of both races. In this letter the Commission wishes to call attention to the progress made in the last few years in interracial cooperation. Already there are agencies at work developing such cooperation in local communities throughout the Southern States. Noteworthy in 1915 connection is the establishment of more than eight hundred county interracial committees in the Southern States as a result of the efforts of the Commission on Interracial Cooperation, organized in 1919 by representative Southern men and women, with its headquarters in Atlanta. This is a practical method of putting into service the leadership of both races. Sane, thoughtful men, who love truth and justice, can meet together and discuss problems involving points of eye strong disagreement and arrive at a common understanding. If only they remember to look for the next best thing to do rather than attempt to determine for all time any set of fixed policies or lay down an inclusive program for the future. The most fruitful forms of cooperation have been found in connection with such vivid community problems as better schools, good roads, more healthful living, and more satisfactory business relations. In all these community efforts the good of both races is inseparably involved. No fact is more clearly established by history than that hatred and force only complicate race relations. The alternative to this is counsel and cooperation among men of character and good will, and, above all, of intelligent and comprehensive knowledge of the racial problem. The number of those who possess specific knowledge upon which to base intelligent thinking and, ultimately, wise action is still too small. There is great need, therefore, that facts now available concerning the advancement of the Negro race in education, in professional accomplishment, in economic independence and in character, be studied by thoughtful students in our colleges. Such facts as are definitely established can be made as has already been done in some institutions, the basis of instruction in race conditions and relations as a part of a regular course in social science. This body of information would undoubtedly allay race antagonism a would serve as a foundation for tolerant attitude and intelligent action in every direction of interracial cooperation.

Walks over the earth with silent tread And bears our mother awake; And then we call her dead. Oh! mother is sleeping, so free from all pains. Oh! wake her not sweet spirit to suffer again. She is resting so sweetly Oh! let her rest on; Her sickness ended and her troubles all gone. Oh! think how she meant and suffered with pain. In long nights of ours as we soothed her in vain.

His text was from Matthew 25: 34; "Come ye blessed of my father, in herit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world." Rev. McGee preached a soul-stirring sermon, one worthy of praise, and one which will live long in the hearts of his hearers. ANOTHER TESTIMONIAL Rev. L. E. Terrell was present and also spoke in the very highest terms of Deacon Golden, and of the Christ-like life, which he lived in the community thereby winning for himself a host of friends. He was survived by a widow and three sons. We express our hope that even so great a loss to us may he over rued for good by Him who knowest best. —THE OXFORD ZION CHURCGL In Memory.

TWENTY MILLION WON BY COLORED GIRL TWENTY MILLION WON BY COLORED GIRL New Orleans, La., Feb. 28—Oil lands in Claiborne parish, said to be wort nearly $20,000,000 were declared yester day by the Louisiana Supreme court to be the property of Lillie G. Taylor, a colored girl, when the court denied a request for the appointment of a curator for the estate of Leona McGee, her mother. J. Ephus Wimberly, District Attorney of Claiborne parish, brought action in the District court of that parish to have himself named curator for the estate, contending that the estate was a "wacunt" one as no legitimate here were living. Upon dismissal of his suit in the district court he appealed to the supreme court, which upheld the lower court. Lillie Taylor was declared by the Supreme court, reiterating a form or opinion decreeing the land hers, to be the acknowledged daughter of L. oma McGee wife of the former owner of the land. A. SPEAKING SILENCE. The unbroken silence of the Hon. Henry Lincoln Johnson, member of the Republican National Committee from Georgia has been the subject of considerable discussion, between Editor John Mitchell, Jr., of The Richmond Planet, and Editor Benjamin Jefferson Davis of the Atlanta Independent. The former contended that an open break had taken place between the latter and the National Committeeman, which indicated a split in the Republican organization of Georgia. Editor Davis repelled the impachment with the following reservations: You are wrong, Brother Mitchell. There is no split in the organization, except that Mr. Johnson has adopted himself the policy of sitting in humiliation at the feet of the Lily whites and undertaking to stand at the same time at the head of the column of thirteen million Negro citizens as their political leader. He has adopted the policy of running with the Lily whites and holding with the organization of which he is leader. The organization in the state is solidly against the policy of vacillation and surrender and there is no personal break between the Editor and Mr. Johnson. It is not that we love the Colonel less, but that we love the rights of our group more than we do the personal ambition of any one individual. It is a question of principle with us that envolves the entire race's political status for all time to come. We are thinking in terms of a thousand years and not of a political meal for one man. We love Mr. Johnson and we'll serve him personally whenever we can; but we cannot subscribe to his political leadership; we cannot adopt nor follow his policies; we believe in no ruler of our rights to any man or set of men. The rights of all first and jobs for the individuals last. Mr. Johnson is a public servant and directly accountable to the Republicans of Georgia; and if the President has not treated him right—and the country knows it—it is his business to report to us and let us fight his battle and not acquiesce in or surrender the rights of all of us for peace with an administration that has violated every promise it made when bidding for votes. If this declaration of independence by his former political henchmen does not serve to break the silence maintained so strictly by the Georgia leader, we shall have to seek a solution of the situation by consulting the narrative of "Unde Remus" as interpreted by amethi er famous Georgian: "En Bre Rrabit, he hay low." (New York Age.) IDEAL SOCIETY NEWS. The Richmond District Council of the National Ideal Benefit Society held quite a meeting on Friday night, February the 24th. The reports made were very encouraging. The campaign committee reported many members having joined the Order and the organization of three new lodges and two nurseries in Richmond since January 1st, 1922. The grand union instillation of offices which took place at the 5th Street Baptist Church on January 30th was indeed a remarkable success considering the great snow storm, as well as the meeting held at the New Baptist Church on February 17th. Applications have just been received requesting charters for a new lodge and nursery at Pittsburg, Pa. The Union Nursery Board of City Point, Va., held its meeting at the residence of Mrs. Hines on the 25th of February. This was a splendid meeting which every one enjoyed. Mrs. M. E. Overton was elected President; Mrs. L. A. Cooke of Charles City. Secretary. The meeting adjourned to meet again the 4th Saturday in April at Bormuda Hundred. At the close of the meeting refreshments were served. —Mr. Jas. Jones of 1541 Decatur St. continues sick. —Mr. and Mrs. Gartfield Davis of New York, arrived in the city last Sun dayto attend the funeral of their sister Mrs. Mary Johnson. —Mrs. Roberta C. Miller of 12 E. 20th street, who has been sick for the past two weeks is improving. —Bishop G. L. Blackwell, D. D., LL., D. of Philadelphia, will be in the city on next Sunday, March 5th. He will preach at Hood A. M. P. Zion Church morning and night. A coedal invitation is extended to a1 to come and hear him. —Rev. M. F. Gregory, the pastor has been extremely ill, in his home, 21 W.

Lace, at the Vermont Avenue Baptist church Sunday, February 5, 1922, Rev. R. V. Peyton, D. D., pastor of the Sixth Mt. Zioh Baptist Church, Richmond, Va., preached a soul-stirring sermon. We were pleased to have him here. He was the guest of Mrs. Minnie Liggins at the residence of Mrs. M. E. Holmes, 3305 Sherman Avenue, N. W., Washington, D. C. Mrs. Johnson Visits Richmond. Mrs. Eliza J. W. Johnson, of Washington, D.C., a former Richmond resident and well known in religious circles, arrived in the city last Saturday, for a few days' visit. She spoke at the First Baptist Church last Sunday morning and was warmly greeted by a large concourse of admiring friends. Sunday night, at the Woman's Day Exercises, held at Leigh Street M. E. Church, she was the principal speaker and highly delighted and inspired her audience in a well selected address on "How Large is your World?" While here she was the guest of Miss Rosa Brooks. Y. W. C. A. NOTES The very splendid address made by Miss Clayda J. Williams at Vesper services on last Sunday were indeed full of inspiration to all who heard it. Miss Williams in a very charming manner told the story of the Health Fair, Cia Chow, and how with the aid of Education and Publicity he endeavored to overcome the evil work of the impulse, Ignorance and Neglect. She showed how each individual could assist in working out the program of Health Education as outlined by the National Board. A Musical and Literary program will be rendered at the Vesper Hour on Sunday afternoon. Mrs. Susie Williams Chairman of the Religious Education Committee will have charge of the program. On Tuesday evening the Association held an informal reception in honor of Miss Williams and Miss Walker. About eighty-five persons attended. The Virginia Union University orchestra played several selections during the evening and added very much to the enjoyment of the guests. Among the numbers on the program were a select reading by Miss Miraura Edmunds, a vocal by Miss Marion Hayes and a duo by the Misses Griffin. Dr. Bessie Tharp made a short address stating how much the Association had appreciated the visit of Miss Williams and the work of Miss Walker as Girl Work Secretary during her stay with us. She presented to Miss Williams and Miss Walker tokens of appreciation from the Association. Because the members of the classes have enjoyed their Recreation work so much and wished to continue their classes, we have succeeded in getting Miss Webster. Head of the Physical Department of the Central Association to continue these classes after Miss Williams' departure. Plans have been made for a course of eight lessons, one a week on Monday evenings from 7:15 to 8:15. We feel ourselves very fortunate in being able to secure Miss Webster as our instructor and appreciate highly her consenting to take up this added work. We feel assured that all members are desirous of continuing their course and would ask that they call or phone for further information. Miss Adela F. Ruffin. Field Secretary of the South Atlantic Field will arrive on March 6th for a two weeks visit to our Branch. Miss Ruffin comes to us in interest of developing and training the committees in organization methods. Various group meetings will be arranged for during he restay RACE - COUNTRY - WORLD NEWS PRICE, FIVE CENTS PROF. MOORE SPEAKS ON OUR POLITICS Bahia, Brazil. December 16, 1921 Mr. John Mitchell, Jr. Richmond, Virginia. U. S. Dear Sir: It is needless for me to remind you that your national politics of this year have caused unusual interest from all parts of the civilized world and the reasons are various, as well as striking Your apparent success in maintaining dry laws for the nation; your international conference on disarmament; your dominating position over world's exchange of currency; your great industrial questions which seem to enable you to supply the great needs of the world with American goods, not withstanding the fact of your absence and incompetible position at present. Also your great race question, and last but not least, your success at running for Governor of Virginia, with a full ticket of colored people. We must frankly admit that the latter has caused us much impatience in waiting for the news of results. Now, being so somewhat relieved from that suspense, we offer you our congratulations on being the first colored person to get the nomination of the Governorship of Virginia and heading the first State ticket of all colored people in the country. This is indeed making history! Now we beg to congratulate you up on the success, you made at winning votes. You did well, but not half as well as I wished. Your efforts proceed that however, tame one may seem, a mule never forgets how to kick. The stuff is in you sir, and it must come out. "I knowed it all do time. But I jeasn't couldn't git dem udder fellos! I gree wid me." Yes, taking it all together, you done dog-gone well, and they must all give it to you." But before we go any further; how does it feel to be a running for governor of your State?" I guess it must give you swimming in the head on the start off. Did it? Thinking it I tried to ride a bicycle. Give me an awful swimming in the head, but I just kept on at it until my head became used to it, and the ground did not seem to be running backwards from under my feet any more. When I got so that I could take my eyes off that front wheel and look straight before me, it seemed that all the world was glad and was running to meet me. When I passed a tree it seemed to be so delighted, that it was running to tell the others behind me. But when I learned a bit more, I felt well paid for all the bruises I had gotten while falling off; even when I came "dog-good" near sticking my head under the front wheel of a wagon, which was loaded with stone, one time. So just keep on at it until you get use to it and then you will like it; just the same as the white folks do. I suppose that you wont like this kind of congratulation very much and especially after you've been running for governor of Virginia, but I just can't help it, for I am just so glad that I don't know what to do. The word is, you did not win. But even that does not hinder you from trying again. I may not send you this letter, but if I do you can just read it to yourself and tell nobody what I said. This is kind of between useless you would like to tell it to somebody else. I am going to write you another letter, such as should be sent to an ex-candidate for governor. So coming down to business again we must remark that your 20,000 votes did not elect you by a long shot but it counted for more than 5,000 against the other parties. It was 20,000 votes which they might have had in their favor and the 20,000 which were against them on the other side caused a great loss to them. Therefore, some of the democrats must be congratulating you away down in their hearts for playing Theoreo Roosevelt on them. I am as ever, yours for absolute social equality to all under similar conditions. Of course, you did not hit the bull's eye, but you certainly did hit the plate and that is not ba dior the first shot. I. S. MOORE Bahia, Brazil. December 17, 1921 Mr. John Mitchell, Jr. I take great pleasure in congratulating you upon your recent adventure as candidate for Governor of Virginia, and your success of having upward of 20,000 votes cast for you. Your simplicity in manners and your sterling char acter have combined to make this a possibility; like the other remarkable things you have done in society. There fore we say with the fullness of our hearts, that we do hope that even your candidacy, will lend courage to (Continued on Page 2.) SLAY BO a awe iS Sree 7.

It is known though not to be practicable as it will be dim- cult to secure evidence to convict. Another provision makes it a punish- able offense for n prohibition oflicer to fail lo turn in to the State all of the. Vquor that he captures from the “hootlegger. ‘This will make the business of the prohibition officer un- profitable from a personal point of view, | Some of the hest prohibition officers: have been noted for their ability to trace “hoot-leggers” on the seent alone, When they bave not had a drink them selves for weeks, it has not been a aiff enlt isk for them to scent liquor with the primary desire to quoneh thefr own Uhirsts first and (o punish the viola- tors of the law afterwards. So flagt..at had become these conditons that be- fore quitting office as Governor, Hon. Westmoreland Davis proposed that, pro hibition officers be required to take an onth of absiemiousness with reference to liquor, ‘This brought forth a storm of pro test from that quarter and the mensure has never heen reported out of the com. mittee, In the federal court, Judge Edmund Wadail handed down a de- cision relative to search and soizure, which will have a far-renching effect in federal cases, He cited the constita- tional guarantees of the Constitution of the United States concerning this question and announced that warrants known as search warrants not drawn strictly In accordance with the provis- ions of this supreme instrument would be null and void and the evidence se- cured in this manner would be thrown ont of court. As the State and Federal systems of government are so closely intertwined, it is evident that when State prohibit Lon officials, persecute a person, where a federal question is raised at the trial the accused — will enjoy those rights specified by Judge Wadditl, even though the state law provides otherwise, | ‘Thanks (o President Woodrow Wil son and his administration, the feder- al statutes are supreme.

Minus His Celebrated Ring Scowl and Looking Fit to Buttle on Short No: tico, Champion Declares He Must Maye Work, Even as Taxi Driver. (By W. 0. MeGechan.) * Jack Dempsey blew into town with the blizzard yesterday looking for work, The heavyweight champion was in a merry mood. The celebrated ring scowl worn for the last Lime i action last July was erased from his face, and there was a jovial grin under the con ventional black iron derby hat. Like Mr. Gilbert's burglar when not engas ed in his occupation his capacity ‘for innocent enjoyment is just as great ay any other man's. Outwardly the champion looked fit for the ring on-twenty-four hours’ no tice. AIL he seemed to have new was the shifting of the grin for the profes: sional scowl and the other “logical contender” would be kissing the cam vas. IL is quite evident that Dempsey has not ben living the life of Riley ot Hollywood, Cul. ‘Whe immediate, future of the cham pion perhaps fs Just as doubtful today as it has been since he deposited his sharo of the proceeds of the bout with Carpentior: There Is a bare possibitity that he may be matched with Joss Ws) lard at Boyle's Thirty Acres this sum mer, Jack Kearns has picked the vener able Jess as the mast logical contend: er.

I have to got york evon if I diivg a taxteab or some thing.” ‘ ‘That's right," agreed Kearns, “It 1s a terrible thing having a champton around doing no work, Jack must have work, It looks as though ho would ho riven from the Untted States for a While because of the lack of employ- ‘ment. I got some nice offers to bring him to Europe. T want to take him thers for another reason to show up some of the English sporting writers like this fellow, George Bernard Shaw. T under stand that this Shaw Is the bird thet sald Jnck didn't have a Chinaman’s chance with Carpentier. T want Jack to flop Carpentier right into his lap when he gets there T want to show this fellow Shaw what a mug he really {9 about sports. From what I read about Niny he ought to be writing plays or cs says or something instead of sports. It takes a smart fellow to write sports right. “ve heen doing plenty of work in the show Insiness.” Dempsey volun teereil. “I boxed about fifteen rounds a day, I got enough work to keep me in condition, but it is tiresome work for pretty poor money, I want to fight.” “THE OLD MONROE TRICK Dempsey grinned brosdly when he told the story of an attempt to put something over on him at Butte, Mont., where Jack Monroe was mancuvered into tho ring against Jeffries while the ‘Old Grizzly was on tho same sort of tour that Dempsey had heen taking: ‘The canny miners of Butte had a cham pion named Mike Swanson, n porson about the same bulk ay Willard, Demp. sey was passing through inviting tho world in general to step up and be Knocked out. Swanson was trained for weokts in advance to “pull the Monroe” as the ecognoscenti of Butte termed it. But both Dempsey and Kearns had bean warned that Swanson was bent on| homicide, so Dempsey was ready. ‘When Swanson came too he only asked feebly, "Who touched off the blast?” A Vancouver poltcemah with pugilis tic ambitions also gave the champion some cause for innocent merriment ‘The cop was earnest, so earnest that he filled the ring so full of arms and legs that Dempsey thought it was the entire force, He hit one of the chins that flew by himv and the pblice force took the count. It is quite evident that Dempsey ana Kearns are banking on Willard for tho next hig killing. Thoro are still a lot of people he got started rdlu fgaqhelt : of people who believe that Willard was spilled hefore he got started at ‘Toledo and that he might have had a chanco if he had not undorestimated Dempsey. It's a free country and anybody whe believes that should not bo sentenced without a fair trial. MAY BECOME REFERER. It may be that Dempsey may permit himself to bo n candidate for referee of the bout between Grob and Gibbons who will box at the Garden under the Patronage of Mrs. William Randolph Hearst for the milk fund. Dempsey {s Not keen for the honor but watuld Ike to assist he says. “Certainly, T would fight the winner in a minute,” said Dempsey, “it the winner wants to fight and if anybody will offer a purse worth while. 1 want to fight as early and as often as posst: ble. Why a champion has to fight or re tire and there don't scom to bo any sense in retiring at my age, does there?

The office of the President of the United States is not only the highest position in the gift of the American people, but it is the highest as well as the most representative in the world; and the man who fills this exalted position is required both by the Constitution and the expectation of the people to be a man large enough in heart and soul to know no faction, race, creed or religion, but to be truly the representative of every element of people entering into our cosmopolitan population. The President is expected to stand true to form and to be able to issue justice and right to all men, to be a little above partisanship, to possess no hatred, malice or prejudice but to have an impartial mind, and be president of all the people. In short, to be the embodiment of Abraham Lincoln, breathing his soul in his everyday conduct of the administration of public affairs. The rule of fitness is to be the stand ard by which the president is expected to measure governmental officials and a steady, even-handed enforcement of the law so far as lies in his constitutional power, ought to be his policy. He is to administer the government that Lincoln lived and died for, for the people, of the people and by the people. The least thing the people can expect of the President is to be consistent, is to neither contradict, stultify nor double cross himself. Sunday morning, when the people awoke and read his address before the Lincoln Society Saturday night, in which he appealed for party harmony, party loyalty and the integrity of party organization, they were at a loss to reconcile the utterances of Politician Harding with the conduct of President Harding. In his campaign before the election, Candidate Harding made a strong appeal for party responsibility, party sponsorship, party loyalty, and uttered on more than one occasion that he believe in government by parties; but when he became President, he did not live up to the doctrine enunciated as candidate for President. Instead of trying to preserve party harmony and party organization, it has been his policy as President to disorganize, create confusion, discriminate and array race against race, class against class. He has done the unheard of and the unprecedented thing. The proceedings inaugurated in Georgia and wherever the colored man's politics interest was involved have been the most high-handed, dictorial and arbitrary in the political history of our country. In the state of Georgia, the Republicans, following a precedent of fifty years, in 1920 elected a Republican organized organization and seventeen delegates to the Chicago Convention. These delegates thereby making the organization that elected them regular and so stamped by the highest political authority in the party—the National Republican Convention, from whose de clusion there is no appeal. This same convention nominated Mr. Harding and the organization selected by said convention elected him president and the organization in Georgia, which was stamped as regular, but which was outlawed by Mr. Harding after his election, contributed in every way possible to his election. It gave money, time and means. But forgetting that he had said in his address of acceptance, "I believe in party sponsorship in government, I be lieve in party government as distinguished from personal government, individual, dictatorial, autocratic or what not," he proceeded to outlaw the organization in Georgia, because it was most largely constituted of colored men by setting up a pump organization; by coming into the state and selecting from Washington a group of white men who had never affiliated with or professed to be Republicans and designated them as a committee of one hundred This committee was presided over by a Mr. Miller from Minnesota, who was aided and abetted in the conspiracy to dethrone, disorganize and disrupt the party organization in the state by Joe Kealing of Indiana, Bill McGinnis of Ohio, and Charles Houson of Tennessee. The people, when they read of the President's conduct in Georgia and his policy of disruption by encouraging ill whites to exclude all Negroes from party council, will take with a grain of salt all of his sayings in Washington Saturday night about party government, party loyalty, and that he would rather see some of the old time party loyalty than to have the party policy that we have sometimes nowadays. Mr. Hardling will easily go down in history as a party wrecker, as a disorganizer, as a discriminator against American citizens because of their race or color. Mr. Hardling has made hold and has alienated ninety-eight percent of the Negroes in this country from the Republican party. His policy of discrimination, of prescription and his declaration that he would not appoint any Negroes to office because they were Negroes, and his failure to recognize Henry Lincoln Johnson—the only colored member of the National Committee, in dispensing patronage in this state—has taught the Negro that he must make new political alliances. Mr. Hardling has not hesitated to say he wanted white leadership in party affairs, and the Negro must take a back seat; he must not try to be a white man, but must make the very best black man of himself that he can; that it is not a question of votes with Mr. Hardling it is a question of color, if we are to believe his public utterances The President's Saturday night utterances are in keeping with his campaign utterances, but his policy as President is in direct contravention of both his Saturday night utterances and his campaign promises. In other words, President Harding double crosses Candidate Harding and Political Harding. As candidate, he was talking for office. As a politician, he is trying to mend broken fences. At any rate, his leadership is a failure and so far is nothing outstanding $I_n$ his administration. The Negroes of this country, 13,000,000 strong, will cast at least 4,000, votes for the next President of the United States and unless the Republican party checks the leadership of Mr. Harding a Waterloo will meet them in November, 1924 as great as the Waterloo which overtook Candidate Cox who ran on a dry platform with a wet plant on it. The Negro has settled every debt he owed to the Republican party, and will not stand for the party when it deserts the doctrine of Lincoln and forsakes the soul of the great emancipator. It is sacrilege for President Harding to refer to the party and policies of Lincoln. McKinley and Roosevelt, Mr. Lincoln stood upon the platform that all men were born equal and entitled to freedom, and that the nation could not endure long half slave and half free, and in support of that doctrine he emancipated b y proclamation 4,000,000 souls and backed up that proclamation with the entire army and navy of the United States. McKinley took the position and died for it, that any class of people woe were entitled to vote were entitled to be voted for, and in the distribution of federal patronage, his rule was fitness and not one of partisan and race hate in any community. Roosevelt perpetuated the policies of Lincoln and McKinley and preached the doctrine of up with all men rather than down with some men; that the door of hope should not be shut in the face of any man but the highest reward in the gift of the American people should be held out to the humblest citizen as an encouragement for the development of the most useful and helpful character. Living up to these principles established by Lincoln, enunciated by McKinley, he appointed men to office with out regard to race, color or previous condition of servitude. Mr. Harding is the only man who has ever been President, who took the position that he would not appoint a colored man to any position where he was objectionable to white men. If he were fair, he would take the position that he would not appoint any white man to a position where he is objectionable to colored men. Every UPresident, including the two Democratic Presidents, since 1876, has appointed, Negro men to statutory positions except Warren G. Harding, who promised the Negro more than all the Presidents since Lincoln's death Verily, the President not only double crossed himself, but stultifies his own public utterances by both his speech and his conduct as President. As a candidate, the Negro was everything—as President, he is nothing. As a politician, he enunciates before the Lincoln Society a compromise. He strikes at the primary and seeks to re-establish the old convention system. Verily, the President is without a policy or the element of political leadership. Verily, he double crosses himself.

Sister Robinson was a faithful member of the Rising Mt. Zion and one of the oldest citizen's of our community. Well thought of by Fulton as a whole. 8:30 P.M. our pastor used as his theme for discussion: "Miracles of Egypt." He had before him the members of the Training Class of the Sunday School, who was instructed by their teacher Miss Alma Logan, to take notes on the same. Our pastor seem to like such way, because of the interest manifested by our teacher, in trying to enlighten the minds of her students. Tomorrow at 11:30 A. M. Rev. Cobbs will use as the basis for his discourse "Whether you can be Holy and live here or not." Let us come out in large numbers 3:30 P. M., will be our Communion services. Everyone is invited.

The pastor preached a wonderful sermon, portraying in glowing and well chosen words the life and works of such a one, whose christian life was exemplified in her every act. With equal regret are the hearts of the people of this vicinity over the death of Mr. Ellis Fisher. Funeral service was held at the Rising Mt. Zion Baptist Church, Tuesday evening. UNION LEVEL NOTES We enjoyed a splendid treat in our Sunday School, Sunday morning. Our Superintendent, Brother Joyco was at his post on time. Our pastor's wife, Mrs. C. A. Bush, was able to be in Sun Day School for the first time and took charge of her class of girls. Our pastor took charge of the singing and every one seemed to be happy and lifted towards heaven. At 11:30 he preached from Rev., using for his subject: "The Word of God, a Sure Guide. His sermon was full of power and our hearts were indeed filled with joy. At 3:30 clock our Sunday School had a literary program and we all enjoyed a splendid treat from the children. We also enjoyed a splendid duet from Rev. Mrs. Alice Tuck and Mrs. Robinson our organist. A fine recitation from Rev. Mrs. Clarke. They are some of our best friends and we invite them to come again. At 8 o'clock our pastor preached from the 91st Psalm. His text was: He shall cover thee with his feathers." and under his wings shall thou trust. This sermon was full of spirit and power and our pastor preached and sang as never before and we all went home with our hearts on fire. We are proud to say without the least contradiction that Union Level Baptist Church has called a fire brand from the altar, a man that truly hates sin, and we are proud to say, that he is not afraid to strike it when he sees it. Brethren pray for us; that we may continue to win souls for Christ. Come and see us.

Richmond, Va. July 8, 1915. A perfect cure has been effected by L. J. Hayden's Pure Herb Medicines. After waiting thirteen years and have not suffered from the horrible disease, Gravel, I desire to make a statement to L. J. Hayden: 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 Medicine and try to 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 pea. 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. try GR ical the S. D. LYONS 316 North Central Oklahoma City, Oklahoma I was cured of a very bad case of Rheumatism by two bottles of L. J. Hayden's wonderful Herb Medicine, after suffering a long time with the dreadful disease. I was unable to move hand or foot, and after I had taken three doses of the medicine I was able to get out of my bed and walk across the floor, and only two bottles of the medicine has made me a perfectly well man in every respect. I cannot give Mr. L. J. Hayden too much praise for what he has done for me. I have sent many other suffering ones to him, and they have also gotten cured. My daughter was also cured of Rheumatism and Indigestion by L. J. Hayden's Herb Medicines at No. 220 W. Broad Street, Richmond, Va. I recommend Mr. L. J. Hayden as one of the greatest healers of the sick on earth. Respectfully, J. D. TAYLOR, 2410 E. Grace St., Richmond, Va.
