HAMPTON DEFEATS LINCOLN UNIV. 31 to 24 ‘The basketball season of the colored iscbools of the East ended by Hampton I aefeating the strong Tincoln Uaiverst lty feam on Washington's birth day. Hampton defeated Lincoln by a score of St to 84 and won the Vastern championship. The season just closing has been a yery Interesting one. The great in door game has became more popular this season than ever before, This is especially trne in the U. 8. Army, wheres it has furnished entertainment for thousands of soldiers, and where | some yery goml teams have been de- veloped. ‘The-Hanpton amachine is much light- br than ever before, but it is also much ‘faster. The members of the team, ‘under the coaching of Charles 11, Wil: lias and the leadership of Capt. El- jah Mefaren, feel proud of their ac- complishments, A large audience gathered in the school gymnasium on Washington’s birthday to sce the elash hetween the “Orange and Tue” and the “Blve and White.” In the first halt of the game it wad hard to tell which was the better team, for the scare was fired several tlines before the whistle blew and the first half onded fvith the score 12 to 14 in Hamp- ton’s favor. Hampton's team work in the second half was too much for the Lincolnites. The final score was 24 to $f in Hamp ton’s favor. . 2 McLaren, Gurnod, and Wright played exceptionally good games -for Hamp- top, while Capt. Butler was the star of the “Orange and Blue” machine, "The refereeing hy E. 13. Henderson was also exceptionally ood. WAYCROSS, GA...

ERNMENT COMMISSION In the recent government investigation, of conditions surrounding all classes of labor, their wages, working conditions, etc., as compared with the high cost of living—the Negro Pullman porter's case came up for consideration. He will benefit by this consideration, because one group (the railroads) insisted upon a continuance of "tipping" practice, while another pleaded for a living wage, with no reliance upon uncertain tipping. S. E. Podgett, a representative of the Nationaf Association of Colored Employees urged that Negro employees be paid at the same rates as white employees for the same service. It is "something new under the sun" and a good sign, that the case of the Negro labor, as such, has been before the chief counsels of the Nation. That has never been before. This, together with the recognition and admission of Negro skilled labor into the rank of organized labor, by the American Federation of Labor, is really "something new." We haunt heard "of no such animal before." The first war-year has truly brought many wonders—the years that are to come will bring many more, no doubt. AMERICA'S CHANGING HEART We believe we see the dawning of a new day on earth. We are looking beyond the wild cataclysm of world-engulfing war, across the setting muck of murdering, lynching American mobs, through the thick maze of conflicting and contending social and industrial propaganda,—into the very purposes of God for the ultimate triumph of Justice. Oh, Justice! Fairest of all Virtues! Thou hast slept already, too long! This week, twenty-eight (2,800) hundred, black men, in Georgia alone, boarded Jim Crow cars, from their places in filthy waiting rooms, on their way to Camp Gordon, near Atlanta, to be made into soldiers or stevedores, to be shipped to France, to join with the hosts of Allies in their fight for Democracy. "Democracy" is an elusive, uncanny word,—hard to define, hard to illustrate and practice,—in Amerien. Most white Americans shudder when the word is analyzed in its etymology, because its roots have a too liberal and unawful meaning for America. American wants Democracy-qualified, Democracy with a mental reservation as to its American meaning. Lots of local color and a strong setting of American social scenery must be thrown about this coveted prize of war—Democracy—after we have won her. The Tennessee contingent of Negroes on their way to camp, passed by the bloody pyre of a burned Negro, and breathed the putred fumes which rose from the scared flesh of that luckless black victim of the hate of two thou-and white American savages,—on their way to fight for the enthrancement of that magic institution, Democracy. From the trains the Georgia boys behold the stark and multilated bodies of Best and Dansey, swinging from the limbs of trees, silent in an ignominious death, and abandoned to the vultures, in the fear and terror of relatives and friends who would perform the sacred and human rites of burial; farther on, at break of day, the saw the riddled career of another Negro lying in a drift or rubbish in the road,—shot up the night before, in a mad revelry of white brutes who in day time wear the soubriquet of "citizens and Americans." And yet they went on cheerfully and patriocally to fight for, "Democracy" which to them has been but a mocking fiction,—and will be, if most Americans continue to have their way. Does history, or legend, even, record any instance of unalloyed patriotism equal to this? America has been as harsh and as bloody and as unjust to the American Negro as any power on earth ever was to its subjects. We have in America just as depraved and barbarous misanthropes as any uncivilized people ever produced, and judging by their acts in the Dyersburg and Estill Springs cases the perpetrators of the most brutal German atrocities on Belgium would be maucated by the Tennessee spectacle. We know Negroes are loyal and good fighters. We know Negroes have made commendable progress since emancipation. We know Negroes have reduced their illiteracy, improved their morals, and their mortality. We know "the South is the natural home of the Negro". We know all too well about the relationship of master and slave in the South "fo de war." We have heard too often the discussion of Negro taxation in proportion to his enjoyment of public education. We don't want to hear it any more. When white men and white women come to address us, we want them to leave this old stuff out, and talk to us as intelligent people. We want them to tell us why, we are allotted so little of the public funds for education, protection, reality improvements, playgrounds. We want to know why "good citizens" may not vote to elect the officers who are to govern them. We want to know why they do not stop the ruthless shooting and lynching of Negroes, whether they engage in it or not. We want them to explain why on railroads and other public carriers, accommodations for Negroes are inferior when the tariff imposed is the same as for whites. We are tired of "Your people," and patronizing. ASK PRESIDENT TO GRANT CLEMENCY (Continued from Page One) And we come not only as the representatives of those who signed this petition, but we come representing the sentiments and aspirations and sorrows, too, of the great mass of the Negro population of the United States. "We respectfully and earnestly request and urge that you extend executive clemency to the five Negro soldiers of the Twenty-fourth Infantry now under sentence of death by court martial. And, understanding that the cases of the men of the same regiment who were sentenced to life imprisonment by the first court martial are to be reviewed, we also request and urge that you cause this review to be laid before you and that executive clemency be shown also to them. "We feel that the history of this particular regiment and the splendid record for bravery and loyalty of our Negro soldiers in every crisis of the nation give us the right to make this request, and we make it not only in the name of their loyalty, but also in the name of the unquestioned loyalty to the nation of twelve million Negroes—a loyalty which today places them side by side with the original American stocks that landed at Plymouth and Jamestown. The hanging of thirteen men without the opportunity of appeal to the Secretary of War or to their Commander-in-Chief, the President of the United States, was a punishment so drastic and so unusual in the history of the nation that the execution of additional members of the Twenty-fourth Infantry would to the colored people of the country savor of vengeance rather than justice. "It is neither our purpose nor is this occasion to argue whether this attitude of mind on the part of colored people is justified or not. As representatives of the race we desire only to testify that it does not exist. This state of mind has been intensified by the significant fact that although white persons were involved in the Houston affair and the regiment to which the colored men belonged was officered entirely by white men, none but colored men, so far as we have been able to learn, have been prosecuted or condemned. THE SAVANNAH TRIBUNE SATURDAY MARCH 2ND, 1918 "We desire also respectfully to call to your attention the fact that there were mitigating circumstances for the action of these men of the Twenty-fourth Infantry. Not by any premeditated design and without cause did these men do what they did at Houston, but by a long series of humiliating and harrassing incidents, culminating in the brutal assault on Coporal Baltimore, they were goaded to sudden and frenzied action. This is borne out by the long record for orderly soldierly conduct on the part of the regiment throughout its whole history up to that time. "And to the end that you extend the clemency which we ask, we lay before you this petition signed by white as well as colored citizens of New York; one of the signers being a white man, president of a New York bank, 72 years of age and a native of Lexington, Ky. "And now, Mr. President, we would not let this opportunity pass without mentioning the terrible outrages against our people that have taken place in the last three quarters of a year; outrages that are not only unspeakable wrongs against them, but blots upon the fair name of our common country. We mention the riots of East St. Louis, in which the colored people bore the grunt of both the cruelty of the mob and the processes of law. And we especially mention the savage burnings that have taken place in the single state of Tennessee within nine months: the burning at Memphis, Tenn., at Dyersburg, Tenn., and only last week at Estill Springs, Tenn., where a Negro charged with the killing of two men was tortured with redhot irons, then saturated with oil and burned to death before a crowd of American men, women and children. And we ask that you, who have spoken so nobly to the whole world for the cause of humanity, speak against these specific wrongs. We realize that your position and the tremendous moral influence which you wield in the world will give a word from you greater force than could come from any other source. Our people are intently listening and praying that you may find it in your heart to speak that word." The President received the delegation very cordially and granted them an audience lasting half an hour. He assured them, in effect, that he would carefully examine the record in the case of the condemned men and would give the whole matter his sympathetic attention. A surprising incident of the interview was that the President declared he had not heard anything about the Estill Springs burning. He asked the committee to state the facts for him, which the committee did. The President expressed the opinion that he could hardly believe it true that such a thing had happened. The delegation assured him that not only was it true in the case at Estill Springs but that similar incidents had happened at Memphis, Tenn., and Dyersburg, Tenn., also. On Wednesday night appeared a news item in the daily papers to the effect that the five soldiers condemned to death have been granted respites by President Wilson until he can review the evidence upon which they were found guilty. Mr. Calvin Furgeson, recording secretary of the Colored Chauffeurs Association of Georgia, left Tuesday of last week for Camp Gordon. A send off social was given him by the members of the club. This makes the fourth members of the association to join the colors and several more are expected to go soon.

For this they are to he com mended and should be encouraged. “By continually ursing the race to support its business men, these papers are extending the trade of the Negro business men. Lut what are the Ne- gro merchants as a sroup giving Hack to the Negro papers in return and what ‘are they doing to co-operate witht all thf agitation? It must be granted ‘that quite a few individual merchants ‘give their printing of stationery to col ored printers and not a few insert ‘small advertisements in Negro news- ‘papers which in many instances is “traded out,” but there is entire ab- ‘sence of group appreciation on the part of Negro merchants for the great work now heing done for them by the Xegro editors.” : (To be continued next week) er ee Oe Oe me ee te aero nme ee ¢ THE STAR HA .‘h GROWER + 1 = A WONDERFUL HAIR DRESSER °% x A v AND GROWER x 3, Ce any a One thousund agents wanted.

Recruiting officials are conducting an advertising campaign in an effort to place the facts regarding the splendid pay. excellent living conditions, short work hours and exceptional chances for promotion before the colored men, and it seems that the campaign so far has been highly successful. It is believed that success in an ever larger measure will come during the next two weeks, and that many colored men will answer the call. Those from this section who enlisted during the past six days in the army are: Edward McDowell, Greensville, S. C. Nelson McCoy, Georgetown, S. C. Orle Smith, Beaufort, S. C. John H. Golden, Greenville, S. C. James Blackwell, Greenville, S. C. Joseph Bryant, Beaufort, S. C. William McMullen, Lancaster, S. C. Abram Snipe, Beaufort, S. C. Willie Owens, Greenville, S. C.

Siegel, Savannah, Ga. Information has been received by this paper from the main army recruiting station for the district in Savannah, Ga., to the effect that any colored man interested may write to this station or to any other recruiting station in the district for detailed information, which will be furnished them. Those living near a recruiting station, it is stated, would do well to pay a visit to the recruiting officers, who will cheerfully answer all questions relative to what the army offers the colored man at the present time. RESOLUTION In memoriam of our deceased friend and brother. William E. C. Bullock. Whereas, it has pleased Almighty God in His wise providence to remove from this world militant, to the world triumphant our esteemed friend and brother member, William E. C.

We miss your presence, dear brother, and loss to us which we trust is your gain into sweet heaven of rest. Be it therefore Resolved, that in memory of you and your faithfulness as a member, that this expression of ours be spread upon the records of the society and be also published in the Savannah Tribune and a copy be sent to the bereaved wife.

IN MEMORY MITCHELL-In loving remembrance of my dear husband, Mr. Frank Mitchell who departed this life February 24, 1917. Gone to come no more. Is it possible, dear husband? He was a devoted husband. Though I loved him, God knew best. The voice we loved so well is silent, one year ago and though on earth his body lies the soul I trust is in heaven. Farewell, dear husband, farewell, we must say until we meet beyond the river where it will no more depart to mourn his loss. Loving wife, Mrs. Julia H. Mitchell Sister, Mrs. Mary Brown Father-in-law, Mr. R. D. Holmes MAXWELL-In sad but loving remembrance of my dear husband, Miller, C. Maxwell, who departed this life March 1, 1917. Yes, we'll meet again in the morning, in the dawn of a fairer day, when the night of watching and waiting with its darkness has passed away. Where no shadows will vell the sunshine, over there in the heavenly land, and the crystal waves of the river, ever flow over the golden sand. Where my precious one now is dwelling, free from toil and from every care; with his garment spotless and shining, like the robes that the angel wears. When our pilgrimage is completed, and our footsteps no longer roam, by the pearly gates gladly waiting he will give us a welcome home. O what joy when all shall be over, and the journey on earth we close, and the angels homeward shall bear us, where the life stream forever flows. We shall see the king of glory, we shall praise Him with harp and voice, we shall sing the grace that redeemed us, while our hearts in His love rejoice. Wife, Mrs. Carrie Maxwell Daughter, Mrs. Carrie Green West Palm Beach, Fla. Bro, Mr. Adolphus Maxwell France. Son, Master Joseph Maxwell FERGUSON—In memory of my dear husband, Alexander Ferguson, who departed this life in Philadelphia March 2 1917. Just one year ago, dear husband, you left us. Though it seems many times as long. Our hearts are still yearning for you, husband, we miss your gentle voice but well done thy servant of God, rest on the battle is fought, the victory, won and the pain of death has passed and his soul is at rest; it taketh on loftier swell, it whispers, love somewhere with God. Sleep on my devoted husband and take thy rest, we will meet you again. Wife, Mrs. Alexander Ferguson Mother, Mrs. Julia Ferguson Father, Mr. Richard Ferguson Sister, Mrs. Hattie Ferguson Savannah, Ga GREEN—In memory of our husband and father, Samuel C. Green, who departed this life 26 years ago, but his memory lingers still. Samuel heard the Shepherd when he called and went to obey his will. Twenty-six years ago he left us, left us with an aching heart. He was anchored in Christ Jesus and was ready at his command. He is gone but not forgotten. Sleep on my beloved, sleep and take your rest, we will meet one morning at the beautiful gate. Wife and children. Mrs. M. E. Greene Mrs. M. E. Lockly, Chester, Pa. Mrs. R. G. Mark, Sylvania, Ga.
