The Savannah Tribune. VOLUME XXXIV 13 Year Old Girl Kills Man Who Attacked Her WAS ACQUITTED AT CORONER'S INQUEST WEDNESDAY Shot Man When He Broke in Door To Get at Her Dunrow Moore, 21 years old, was shot to death Tuesday afternoon in a house at the five-mile bend on the Augusta road by Janie Smith, 13 years old. After the shooting the girl made her escape, but was surrendered the next morning to the county police who brought her to the city. She was carried direct to the coroner's inquest Wednesday morning at Monroe's Undertaking establishment where she was acquitted. There were no eye witnesses to the shooting, and the child testified that she was alone in the house when Moore approached her. She said she ran into another room and slammed the door and locked it. He broke down the door and as he came into the room she pointed a shot gun at him, to scare him away, and the gun fired, the load entering the man's stomach, producing death shortly afterwards. The shooting occasioned much excitement at the five-mile bend, and all during the inquest large crowds of people stood around the undertaking office. STATESBORO, GA., NEWS Mr. and Mrs. P. E.

ENGAGEMENT Seabrook's Undertaking Company Bought Out by Savanah Undertaking Establishment (Associated Negro Press.) Raleigh, N. C., July 5—Denouncing the Loyal Order of Klansmen, which has received a state charter and is being widely advertised in the newspaper, among them Secretary Daniel Democratic organ here, Gov. Bickett today called on all North Carolinians to repudiate this "desperately wicked appeal to race prejudice, and to withhold money from "this scheme so transparently impossible, so plainly a gold brick proposition that ordinarily the inmates of an institution of the feeble-minded could not be induced to part with their coin for a certificate of membership in such a soap bubble." Gov. Bickett's attack, which is said to be the first made by any Southern governor on this organization which is secretly sweeping over the South, comes in the middle of a campaign for membership. The entrance fee. of $50 has been cut to $10 and page advertisements are being published. Gov. Bickett's attack, it was said last night, may be followed by libel suits by the promoters, who justify the organization as an answer to activities among Negroes who are organizing. The Governor catalogues from literature the undertakings of the order, which will "protect our farmer," his crops and our cotton; protect our country from lawless invasion; protect the women of our South; and protect our government; protect our state laws; protect our country from foreign interference in the state; protect our properties from unlawful seizeurs; protect people from riots and disorders. Quite incident to this proposition to underwrite the government, it announces a number of institutions which will be maintained of which the governor says: "And all that it costs to enter into the possession of these vast estates and into the power and glory of this omnipotent order is to pay into the now empty treasury the sum of $50 to join and $18 a year thereafter," "Running thru the whole scheme is a wicked appeal to race prejudice," he adds, "There is a hark back to the lawless time that followed the Civil war, and there are paraded before the mind of the readers the terrors of those dark days. The very name that is written on the death head is a subtitle appeal to the fears and prejudices of our people. "Such an appeal is desperately wicked. There is no good need for any secret order to enforce the law of this land and the appeal to race prejudice is as silly as it is sinful. WIDOW OF EX-CONGRESSMAN LONG PASSES AWAY Mrs. H. A. Rucker returned to the city Tuesday from Macon, Ga., where she was called to the bedside of her mother, Mrs. J. F. Long, who departed this life Friday June 27.

TENT TOWN MAY SOON MAKE ITS APPEARANCE Plan Advocated by Negroes to Meet High Rentage (Associated Negro Press.) Pittsburg, Pa., July 8—If plans of the Negro population of the Hill district are approved by certain city officials, a tent town will soon make its appearance in the congested section of the hill. The arrangements are to erect tents on city property and live in them until winter's winds drive them to other and moresturdy skelter, as rents are said to be so excessive that many families are being forced to vacate on account of not being able to meet the profit-seeking landlords' new prices. In an appeal before council, George A. Neal, representing several civic organizations of the hill, and A. W. Lynch, editor of the Pittsburgh American, a paper published for Negroes, the men told of how during the past two months rents Have been advanced in some instances as much as $12 per month. Not only did the committee request permission to erect tents on city property for Negroes alone, but for white residents as well, who they say, are also suffering as the result of poor housing conditions. If the tent town is allowed government tents will be used. NATI: LEAGUE ESTABLISH (Associated Negro Press.) Tarrytown, N.

DALLINGER INTRODUCES ANTI-LYNCHING BILL State Would be Considered Denying Citizen Lynched Protection of Law (Associated Negro Press.) Buffalo. N. Y., July 8—A measure aimed to stop lynching, which tends to increase, has been introduced in congress by Representative Dallinger of Massachusetts. By the terms of the bill a state, or the officers of a state in which lynching takes place, will be considered as denying to a citizen lynched the protection of the law and a lynching will be considered a violation of the peace of the United States. Every person in a mob by which a citizen is put to death will be deemed guilty of murder, subject to prosecution and, if convicted, subject to punishment under the laws of the state in which lynching occurs. More than than that the state will be subject to the forfeiture of $5,000 to $10,000 for the use of the dependents of the person lynched. Officers of the state who fail to prevent lynching and prosecuting officers who fail to prosecute for the offense all persons participating in a lynching mob will be deemed guilty of an offense against the United. Representative Dallinger would provide for them a punishment of not more than two years imprisonment or a fine not exceeding $5,000 or both. HENRY O. TANNER GREATEST NEGRO ARTIST ('Associated Negro Press.') Pittsburgh, Pa., July 5—Henry O. Tanner, Negro artist, whose paintings won for him the approval of the artistic world, was born in Pittsburgh 60 years ago. The son of Benjamin T Tanner, Afro-American Methodist bishop of Philadelphia. He spent his youth in the Quaker city. As a boy he took delight in sketching the animals in the Philadelphia Zoo. His talent attracted the attention of Thomas Eakins, and through his influence the boy was enabled to take a two years course at the Pennsylvania Academy of Fine Arts. His next step was to hold an auction of all his canvases, which netted him $300. With that sum he went to Paris, and almost immediately, became the favorite pupil of the great Benjamin Constant. His first picture to attract universal attention was "Daniel in the Lion's Den." This was followed by "The Resurrection of Lazarus," which won a gold medal and was purchased by the French government. In 1899 he married Jessie Maculey Olssen, of San Francisco, who gave up, for him, a promising operatic career. ARMED REVOLT AGAINST GOVERNMENT FRUSTRATED Radicals Work Scheme to Convert Negroes to Socialism (Associated Negro Press.) New York City, July 8—Armed revolt to put down the government when the Bolshevist "day" should come in this country was openly advocated for more than two years by the Rand School of Social Science, the Lusk Committee learned yesterday from papers seized in the raid last week on that institution. Convinced that the proof of open sedition had been presented, the state investigators gave instructions that the document be turned over to the District Attorney's office and that the Attorney General of the state be asked to proceed to revoke the charter of the school. The radical groups in New York had worked out a nation wide scheme of propaganda to convert the Negro race to Socialism, this being regarded as essential to their plot to seize the government so that the capitalist class could not organize the Negroes for defense.' Running thru the secret schemes of the radicals was the purpose to strike when the day arrived to take over the government and to be prepared by having all labor industries organized thoroughly. Senator Clayton R. Lusk, chairman of the committee, in reviewing the evidence at the close of the hearing said the two amazing features were, first that it was shown the Rand School and its associates were preparing for armed revolution and were urging their "army" to be ready to resist the militia and second, that the clever propaganda designed to arouse the Negro race was sedulous and vicious. Most elaborate of all the propaganda schemes so far brought, to light was that by which the radical hoped to turn the power of the Negro race into a great asset. The whole scheme was outlined in an extensive document found in the Rand School and prepared by W. A. Domingo. "If the Socialists should elect a president, capital is prepared to use the Negroes for a guard to prevent the new government taking office. With the Negro as guard they would seize the arsenals six weeks after election. Autocracy will use force or fraud to change the race consciousness of the Negro into a, class consciousness and show him his duty is to support all wings of Socialism. The means by which that end was to be accomplished were outlined as follows. "Give financial support to Negro papers which support racial doctrines. Subsidize Negro speakers and orators to spread radical teachings in Negro meetings and show that Socialists are the only true friends of the black race. All socialists must make a strong point of condemning all injustices to the Negro race and particularly denounce lynching. Prepare special propaganda for wide circulation among Negroes and get them in the habit of attending meetings at which "their interests" are papers and schools with a view of discussed by Socialist speakers. Show that capitalists control newskeeping alive class distinction while "not stressing the race question." One of the strongest mediums of appeal would be thru the church, the memorandum suggested, and this would be comparatively easy to accomplish as the "Negro minister was the most parastical of all celestial navigators." The document of this subject as read into the record was an exhaustive analysis of the Negro problem. It dwelt on the psychology of the Negro, showing how he viewed the state and government and pointing to the weak spots in his mental status thru which the Socialists could force an entrance. NEW BEDFORD HOME GETS $5,000 BEQUEST New Bedford, Mass. July 8—In a decision just handed down by Surrogate Fowler, the question of whether a bequest of $5000 should go to the New Bedford Home for Aged Women of New Bedford, is-decided in favor of the latter. When Mrs. Clara E. Seabury, of this city, died among the bequests in her will was one of $5,000 to the "Old Ladies Home of New Bedford, Mass." As there is no institution of that name in the Massachusetts town, the above named two institutions lay claim to that the deceased had no knowledge or hat the deceased had no knowledge or acquaintance with the New Bedford Home for Aged, which is operated and controlled by Negro people, but did know the Association for the Relief of Aged women of New Bedford, as she had relatives in that city who were actively associated with the latter institution, whom she always heard referred to the institution as the "Old Ladies" home, which prompted her to designate it in her will. ENGAGEMENT Mr. and Mrs. J. W. Jordan announce the engagement and approaching marriage of their daughter, Susle Mae, to Eugene E. Nolsette of Savannah, Ga. The wedding will take place Tuesday July 29th at the home of the bride's parents, Highland Falls, N. Y. The bride-elect has just returned from Tuskegee Institute, where she served one term and will be remembered as the grand daughter of Capt. Thomas Allen, formerly of this city. NUMBER 43 Knights Grand Lodge Closed Thursday MRS. MARY NELSON JONES HEADS COURTS OF CALANTHE All Officers Were Re-elected—Attendance Largest in Years Atlanta, July 10th—The thirty-ninth session of the grand lodge of Knkhts of Pythias of Georgia passed into history here tonight when one of the largest sessions in attendance closed out its business after holding forth for four days. Beginning on Sunday, delegates from every section of the state began arriving in the city and by Monday night the streets were thronged with members of the order, including the women of the courts, and men of the uniform ranks were very much in evidence in their khaki attire. The public exercises were held Monday night at Big Bethel church and hundreds of people heard the splendid addresses and other numbers on the program. The grand lodge convened in business session Tuesday morning at 10 o'clock with Grand Chancellor G. R. Hutto presiding. After the usual opening ceremonies and the appointment of the committee on credentials, the grand lodge adjourned in order to take part in the parade which was spectacular and evoked much favorable criticism. The uniform rank made a most excellent showing and the appearance of the Savannah companies was especially commented upon. Col. C. S. Andrews of the First Georgia Regiment with headquarters in Savannah, is the acting brigadier general of the post and Lieut. Raymond A. Hill is the acting adjutant general. The parade passed through the principal streets of the city. The encampment was at Morris Brown University campus. On Wednesday morning the grand lodge re-convened for business and the reports of the various officers were listened to with rapt attention. They were full in every detail and showed the order to be in splendid condition. The election of officers was very quiet, there being no opposition to the present administration and the entire board being returned to office. The grand Court of Calanthe held a most harmonious session throughout. There was an outbreak of enthusiasm when the excellent report of Mrs. Mary Nelson Jones, of Augusta, acting grand worthy counsellor, was read. It showed plainly the business-like manner in which the affairs of the office was being handled. The reports of all the officers were received, showing the order's affairs to be in fine shape both financially and otherwise. The opposition that was looked for in the election of a grand worthy counsellor failed to materialize and Mrs. Jones was unanimously elected. The only opposition to any of the other officers was that which arose against Mrs. M. S. Grant, of Darien, grand recorder of deeds, who was opposed by Miss M. A. Cole, of Savannah. The opposition was very weak and Mrs. Grant was re-elected. In the report of the grand auditors, presented by Rev. Wm. Decker Johnson, Miss M. A. A. Cole and Miss Gertie Jarrett, former clerks in the office of the late Mrs. R. L. Barnes, grand worthy consellor, were recommended for compensation for the valuable service rendered the board during the recent auditing of the accounts of Mrs. Barnes.

The best place for the best people of the city RICHMOND HONORS RETURNED COLORED TROOPS (Associated Negro Press) Richmond, Va., July 8—Never in the history of the city has there been such a wild demonstration of patriotism as was witnessed upon the return of the 80Sth Pioneer Infantry from overseas. All of Richmond, including both races turned out to welcome these dark skinned boys of Uncle Sam. They were everywhere received with the greatest enthusiasm and the day of their return will be long remembered. It was learned, thru the return of these soldiers, whom the white people of Virginia regard as the aristocrats of the race. Says the Richmond Leader, daily, on this subject: "The Virginia heroes are the aristocrats of their race. They have been longest in America. They are the most intelligent. They are the most law abiding. They have, of course, their bad element, as the whites have, and they combat that element, but they surely are not to be judged by it. Understanding and understood, they deserve, as they sought to win, the respect of all right-thinking men. "What a splendid thing it would be if we might make the return of our Negro soldiers the occasion for a movement that would give them better living conditions—a sure foundation for health and industrial progress." No state in America has surpassed Virginia in its demonstration of patriotic interest in returned soldiers. NEGROES SPEED DEMONS STAGE AUTO RACES (Associated Negro Press) Birmingham, Ala., July 8- A new departure in auto racing took place here on July 4th. It probably marks a new era in reconstruction developments, and will doubles be followed in many other communities of the country. Secretary James Dent of the Alabama State Fair Association was back of the movement, and it was a success in every way, thousands of people attending the automobile races in which colored men were at the wheel of the mighty gasoline driven horses. Secretary Jim Dent of the Alabama State Fair Association promised something new in the way of sport attractions when the Fourth of July rolled around. Mr. Dent announced that the Negro speed demons of Dixie would stage auto races at the fair grounds on the Glorious Fourth. The contest was staged under the auspices of the Alabama State Fair Association. This was the first Negro auto race ever held in Birmingham on the fair grounds track and Mr. Dent states that the best Negro drivers in the south competed drivers from Shreveport, New Orleans and Atlanta, battling for prize money. A big Negro barbecue preceded the races, a dance following the night of the Fourth. The i For your pavilion from continually famed by large ty.

A., delivered an able address here recently in behalf of the race, and helping to crystalize efforts in behalf of a thorough reconstruction program. So favorably was Col. Young's advice to the people with reference to making friends of the whites instead of enemies of them, that the Philadelphia Ledger, daily, one of the nation's great newspapers, commented at length on "It was good sensible advice which Col. Charles Young, of Camp Grant, Ill., a Negro officer, gave to people o his own race at the Academy of Music several evenings ago. First he asked how many of his auditors believed that on the whole the white people wanted and meant to do the right thing by the black man. For all the provocation to believe the contrary, most of those present instantly raised their hands. Then he said: "Love and hate are boomerangs, and if you would have the white man love you and be courageous toward you, it is time that the colore people designed in their hatred, which seems to be growing more prevalent." "That is the way for the friends of either race to talk. Any one who seeks to engender strife instead of to smooth away the causes of friction is a foe to society. The earth belongs to all men, and industrial opportunity should be open to those who can qualify for employment, without regard to the color line. The race in half a century of political freedom and through several centuries of industrial and social discrimination has hopefully persevered, and except when roused by artificial incitement it has been gentle and patient, kindly and humorous and long-suffering. There are bad and violent black men, and there are white men of the same kind. Neither race has the monopoly of viciousness or of Virtue. But, no matter what their color, men were set on earth, to help and not to hinder one another. He who preaches that any man has the right to take by force what is another's is an aristocrat, whether his doctrine be overt or covert. It is time to single out and to punish those who seek to inflame one portion of humanity against another; and against these incendiary doctrines there are to be set such wise and temperate counsels as those of Col. Young." HOWARD APPROPRIATION STRICKEN FROM BILL South Carolina Legislator Contends Appropriation Unauthorized (Associated Negro Press.) Washington, D. C., July. S—On a point of order raised by Representative Ragsdale of South Carolina, the appropriation for the support of Howard University, this city, carried in the supply bill, were struck from the bill in the house today. Mr. Ragsdale contended that there is no legislation authorizing the appropriation. Chairman Good admitted that there is no legislation authorizing the appropriation, but urged Mr. Ragsdale to let the item stand as appropriations had been carried in the bill for many years. He added that there is much charity in the bill. "That does not make it rightly said Mr. Dawesble. "I am the point of order that it is not carried locally." The point was sustained against the items amounting the total of $80,200 and they were stricken out. Chairman Good said that the appreciation for Howard University has frequently been stricken out in the house and restored in the Senate, the conferences finally retaining it.

SATURDAY JULY 12TH, 1919 RETROGRESSION It is attributed to Professor Hubert, principal of the Cuyler Street School, in a speech delivered at the closing of the Negro teachers' summer school at Statesboro recently, that he said he was gratified "to see a decreasing worship of books and a growing interest in hand-training" or words to that effect. This report appeared in a report of the closing exercises carried by the Savannah Morning News, and of course, had a wide circulation thruout the state and country. It is unofficially reported that this unfortunate statement was made under the following circumstances: A dinner, prepared by the promoters of the school for certain white public municipal and school officials, was being enjoyed by these white guests while the Negroes stood by and entertained them at speech-making, delivering themselves of such pretended views of Negro education as they opined would please their guests. The Negroes sang, of course, and doubtless sang the "old time" songs, to make the setting for their drama complete. They thus pulled a drama during the speech-making, which, considering its antebellum background and stage setting and trappings, exemplified all the spokesmen had so eloquently said by word. There is no conflict of head-training and hand, in the view of those who think and know, black or white, and it puzzles us to find why these principles are always set up as alternatives, knowing that inasmuch as they are mutually dependent, collateral, indispensable to each other, they are not conflicting. It must be that these Negroes who do it, have discovered that the white men who control the coffers out of which the Negro schools are supported are pleased at it and desire it. It is extremely unfortunate for the chances of Negro children for these sponsors of Negro common school education to be continually busy at preaching that training the Negro child to work must not be jeopardized by teaching him to read and write and multiply, even if this training to work with the hands must be injected in the poor old rural common school for Negroes and the poorly equipped city grammar school, while the child is yet young. This remark as the example can have no other motive, no other effect, than to impress such a company of listeners, as was assembled in that Negro dining room when the Negro teachers and pupils sang and their "sound" leaders spoke. It was intended to make those white men, who control the funds of common school education, feel that they need have no fear that black children would get any "too much larnin," or that any doctrine or mental equipment which would cause them to "forget their place" or become "uppish," as well as to intrench the speakers in the good graces and favor of their hearers as "sound leaders." Wednesday of this week, a committee of prominent Negroes of Georgia appeared before the education committee of the state legislature to urge the state to improve the Negro common schools of Georgia. Certainly any white man who stops to think at all must have realized and conceded that Negro children need, deserve and must be given a better grade of book learning than these unrepresentative spokesmen essay. Such a standard of common schools is absolutely and conspicuously irreconcilable with Negro advancement and need. Training in the industrial arts is absolutely essential in its place and for its purposes, and every person should know how to ply some line of manual labor skillfully and intelligently. How and by what means, pray, can a man or woman do skilled work without a common school education, at least? What individual, without a common school education or its equivalent, can render efficient services of any sort or take directions intelligently? What considerable responsibility can one with less training bear? Isnt it folly for a Negro school teacher, anywhere in Georgia, to commend the "decreasing worship of books" among Negro children? What can be more absurd or sacrificing or vending of the interests and chances and opportunities of the race than such a misguided, ill-thought, ill-considered remark? We should like to find a reason which could defend such a step, taken even in the rural districts where it could have escaped unnoticed? And such a setting! and such circumstances, as attended the fatal utterance? God forbid that Negro children should exhibit any less "worship of books," or have any less opportunity than they now enjoy. The spirit of readjustment and reconstruction, as it affects the Savannah Negro, is manifesting itself in a tremendous outburst of business and commercial and industrial enterprise. Never before, and perhaps nowhere, was there ever a more burning interest to create, to organize, to co-oper ate within class lines to the end of marshalling and coordinating racial movements for the conservation of the assets of race. Such a positive and momentous exhibition of racial enterprise and initiative is highly inspiring of our hopefulness for the future and proves the growing capacity of our trained men to grasp the larger basic essentials of economic strength which are necessary to group advancement; and it foreshadows the day when Negro men, and Negro organization, will take their places in the fore-ranks of the business markets of the world to measure arms with the business genius of the other peoples there. Negro individuals and corporations have purchased, within the past six months, property on West Broad street to the amount of nearly Two hundred thousand ($200,000.00) dollars, and West Broad street is second only in commercial and intrinsic value to Broughton street, the principal street of the city. These purchases include two brick buildings used for stores and offices, one large frame store and office building, two corner properties to be used for the erection of Negro bank buildings, one site containing three stores and apartments above, all of which will be razed to give place to a modern Negro hotel, distant less than two minutes' walk from the Union Station. All of these properties face this street, and add to the valuable holdings already belonging to Negro owners, mark West Broad street as the mecca of Negro business enterprise. It is significant that property on this thorofare has been no less active among white investors during the same period of time. The fever of business venture and enterprise has caused the organization of no less than a dozen new corporations and business companies. A shoe store has been launched, a gent's furnishings and habadashery store, two new undertaking establishments, two branch drugstores to the principal one, an auto supply company, a modern, up-to-date and sanitary and fancy grocery store, several machine-equipped shoe repair shops, a manufacturing candy store, a dozen of hair-dressing establishments, a home-building corporation, a new banking institution and a score of minor concerns. All of these contribute to the busy life of the Negro section of West Broad street. Real estate men, and banking firms which facilitate home-buying, report that there is a greater demand for homes and a demand for a better class of property, among Negroes, than ever before, and the hundreds, who were already purchasing are rapidly paying out, remodelling or making additional investments. It is gratifying that all these movements and all this enterprise reacts, each upon the other to stimulate it. Four first-class suburban resorts, three by Negroes and another by whites, have been established. These are well-equipped with good pavillons, electric plants, water plants, and music; two of these are provided with lawns and grounds for swings, seats and play, while one is equipped with a specially constructed swimming pool using salt water, bath-houses, and has its own line of auto-trucks for conveying its patrons to and from the city. One of these is operated by a stock company while the other is promoted by an individual. These are essential enterprises in the forward movement of the people. There is a strong, if silent, demand for improved churches and schools for the spiritual and cultural advancement of the people. Good strong leaders, well-equipped bulldings and definite and progressive programs, only, will satisfy the increasing demands of an advancing people and civilization. All the enterprises which we have outlined reflect the increasing thrift and better economy of the people. There is a steadily increasing number of depositors in the Negro banks, and worthy increases in the accounts of those already on the books. This growing thrift is manifested in the establishment of another bank as well as in the new life exhibited by those already in the field. One of these institutions has recently published a statement showing its total assets to be over seven hundred, twenty-two thousand ($722,000.00) dollars; its number of depositors is nearly fifteen thousand (15,000); and its volume of business exceeding the ability of its clerical forces to handle. This institution has paid an annual dividend of 12 per cent for nineteen years, as a result of which splendid showing its stock of the par value of $10.00 per share, brought at public outcry at the sale of an estate $26.00 per share, representing a premium of 160 per cent. These splen-lid examples of the business enterprise of the Savannah Negro are not overdrawn a whit. The doubter has only to visit the business section of West Broad street to have his doubts allayed and his spirit of pride in the splendid showing kindled and stirred. Surely, these are momentous times; surely, these are days of awakening and re-adjustment; and who can anticipate what the next decade will bring to pass? The other day we had the rare experience of witnessing one Negro draw a check for the sum of $23,000.00 in favor of another as purchase money for the latter's established business; and only recently before, we saw another Negro draw a warrant for $8,500.00 with which to pay for his hame, a strictly cash transaction.

Our great discoveries are always accidents: we work for one thing and get another. I expect that the day will come, and are long, when the great universities of the world will have to put the Tuskegee idea into execution in order to save themselves from being distanced by the Colored Race. —Elbert Hubbard In "A Little Journey to Tuskegee" EAT--- Capt.

Thou didst tell us all good bye, We know that Jesus thine elder brother Had carried thee on high. It seems as if nothing could pass us.

CANNING CLUB HOLDING SUCCESSEFUL DEMONSTRATION The members of the Sacksville club held an excellent demonstration on Monday at the home of Mrs. Maggie Royal. There were forty-one quarts of vegetables and fruits canned, also a special demonstration in making Dixie Relish by Miss Juanita Conyers. The relish was packed in special 10 ounce containers. Prof. J. W. Hubert was present and gave the ladies helpful hints concerning the county fair. At the close of the demonstration delicious ice cream and cake was served the members which was greatly enjoyed. Tuesday at the home of Miss Helen Wilson, Flowerville, the White Bluff club members met for a demonstration, canning forty-five quarts of fruits and vegetables. Miss Wilson canned at the demonstration eighteen quarts of peaches berries; five; and apples, five. Late in the afternoon a meeting was held and the club voted to send Mrs. Anna Artson, the club's secretary, to the farmers' mass meeting to be held July 24.25 at Wadley Ga. The members of the White Bluff club are to hold demonstrations every Wednesday at the home of Mrs Lizzie George Twenty-four and a half yards of material was purchased by the agent to make aprons and caps for the White Bluff canning club girls. PROF. THWEATT SPEAKS ON ORGANIZATION Editor of The Tribune: Allow me space in your valuable columns to say the following: Abraham Lincoln has well said when he proclaimed with all the earnestness characteristic of his entire being. "And if a house he divided against itself, that house cannot stand." Mr. Lincoln did not claim to say anything new in making this utterance, but showed himself familiar with the Bible, our code of ethics, and that he was trying to live up to its teachings, and wanted his countrymen to do the same. He taught that the "getting together spirit" was God's spirit, and that no permanent success could come to an individual, race, or nation that ignored this sure salvation of the human race. Not only must old ugly self-hoax, the desire to be in the calcium light, to be a moving picture, to be a record dis played by every photograph, but even compassion must be set at night for freedom and her train. I assert that if our race should reach the goal that our ambitions long for, we intellectuals, recordless of the fact that we want to display our astuteness, leadership, ability as orators, to, must sink ourselves into utter indefiance and be content to march WORKING HOMES left, right, left under one banner of safe, sane, reliable and influential leadership. Too many organizations working, as it seems to the same end, or in other words, duplication of each other, only serve to confuse and scatter our forces thus delaying indefinitely the result of the great cause for which we are fighting. As long as the Allies in the great world war were trying to win as separate units, no satisfactory progress was made, but when these great armies united under one leader, victory was swift to the point of a pleasant surprise party. The reader may, at this point, say, that the writer has said is very good, but, what is he driving at?" In 1909 the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People was organized for the purpose of striving to make America as happy for the black man as for any other class of its citizens; to fight every thing with legal weapon that would discriminate against him on account of his color or previous condition of servitude. In 1910 the National Equal Rights League was organized for the same purpose as the N. A. A. C. P. Now this year we find is sheing organized a similar organization known by the attractive title "Lincoln League of America," and the eloquent moto: "To secure for those for whom Lincoln died all that Lincoln died for." It takes no logician to quickly decide that these three associations all stand for identically the same things. Who can explain to us without getting badly mixed up the reason for having these duplications? The N. A. A. C. P. certainly has the right of way and its substantial progress needs no comment. The personell of its membership cannot be excelled when it comes to wealth, literature, influence, and time honored philanthropy. Now if what I have said is true, is it not better for the talented gentlemen who are leading the other less influential organizations to use their powers in making the N. A. A. C. P. the "Forch" of our great drive, "every man up, rather than some men down?" Yours for a strongly united, compact and adamantious civilized unite in our American civilization. Hiram H.

SATURDAY JULY 12TH. 1919 Chicago, Ill, July S—The white people of the United States, both North and South, have begun to take an unusual interest in the future of the Negro of this country. In every section of the country, conferences, conventions and various other gatherings in which colored people are assembled, are being watched with the keenest of interest. It is noticeable that the majority of the white people are willing to grant the colored people almost every consideration except two: social equality and the ballot. They are willing to grant better opportunities for better education, better comforts on transportation lines, complete protection of rights under the law, better housing conditions, make lynching an impossibility and many other things which any sane person must admit as being fair. The better element of the whites, both North and South seem willing to grant the foregoing excepting social equality and the ballot. "Social equality." said one of our leaders today, "is a subject that should cease to be discussed. It never has been and never will be anything more or less than a political scare-crow Concerning the ballot, that is far different. The denial of the right to vote is plainly unjust and most assuredly against the spirit and letter of the constitution of the United States. RECORDS COMMITTEE TO OBTAIN REGISTRATION (Associated Negro Press.) Indianapolis, Ind.. July S-E. W.

NATIONAL ASSOCIATION LEAVES GOOD IMPRESION Daily Paper Commends Record of the Association Cleveland, O., July S.-The impression left on this community by the 10th annual conference of the National Association of Colored People, is favorable in every respect. More than ever before, this community, which always has had a reputation for justice and fair dealing, had an opportunity to endorse the splendid efforts of the race to reach the plane of fair treatment. It may well be said that the sentiments of Cleveland are aptly expressed in an editorial published in The Cleveland Plaindealer, one of the strongest and most influential daily newspapers in the country. Democratic in politics, but always taking an exalted stand in the rights of humanity. "The Hanover said. "Cleveland is hostess this week to the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, gathered here for its tenth annual conference. It is an organization that has demonstrated its usefulness to the country, and the city is please to extend its hospitality to delegates and visitors." "The association had its birth in the Lincoln centennial year, as it gets much of its inspiration from the life and labors and achievements of the great emancipator. In response to a call sent out to the people of America to give thought to the condition of the Negro, a conference was held in May 1881. Attention was called to wrongs and suffering endured by coloured people and plans were laid to combat them in every reasonable and proper way. President Charles F. Twing of Western Reserve University was one of the signers of the original call. A committee was organized and two years later the present association was incorporated. "That the organization had a duty to perform and a place among the many at work to advance the interests of the race is indicated by its rapid growth in membership. From 1,000 in 1912 to 50,000 last year and 65,000 now its members have multiplied as the practical utility of the association, became manifest. It is hoped that by the end of the present conference its membership may have increased to 100,000. "Organized to fight wrongs against the Negro race, to keep the public informed of injustices perpetrated against colored people and to correct such conditions whenever possible. the association has been a persistent investigator and a conscientious enemy of wrongdoers. It has promoted anti-lynching conferences and campaigned against the sentiment that racially justifies this form of murder. It has secured a supreme court decision against the grandfather clause and got the segregation enhancement of Louisville, Ky., declared unconstitutional." "It is an association militant for justice. It seeks political and civil equality, equal justice in the courts, and equitable expenditure of public funds for education on sanitation, health and police protection. These are aims which any fair minded American should be ready to grant. There is no color line in an honest democrat." BIRTH PAUL LAWRENCE DUNBAR MEMORIALIZED (Associated Negro Press.) Chicago, July —The birthday anniversary of Paul Lawrence Dunbar, was memorialized in a great gathering at St. Mark Methodist Episcopal church Sunday, at which time Clarence S. Borrow, white, one of the greatest lawyers in America, delivered the principal address. Julius Avendorph was director and chairman of the meeting. Borrow said that Dunbar was one the world's greatest poets, and that his inspiration is all a myth. Paul Lawrence Dunbar, the Negro man who won a place in American literature, son of a former Kentucky slave and of pure African blood, was born on June 27th, 1872, in Dayton. He was educated in the public schools there, and in 1891 was graduated from the high school. He began work as an elevator boy and later went to New York City, where he found employment as a newspaper writer and contributor to periodicals. Dunbar later appeared in public as a reader of his poems, which in 1893 were published in a volume entitled "Oak and Ivy." His third volume of verse, "Lyrics in Lowly Life," published in 1895 called general attention, is work and received commendation from W. D. G. Howells and James Lave Vien. He wrote partly in Negro dialect and partly in conventional English, and was considered to have expressed the sentiment of his race very "Coolly and in melodious form. He published several novels, including "The Spirit of the Gods." Other volumes of verse then those mentioned in "Poems of Cabin and Field," "Candle-Lighting Time" and "Howdy Holiday, Howdy." In 1897 Dunbar was invited to a position in the Library of Carrress, which he filled for several years but contracting tuberculosis, he returned to Dayten, where he died in 1895.
