Kills Wife Because She Wouldn't Cook Him Two Eggs
Kills Wife Because She Wouldn't Cook Him Two Eggs
MRS. WILLIE Craig VICTIM OF
HER HUSBAND'S WRATH
Former Wife also Died from Effects of
Blow Dealt by Him
Mrs. Willie Craig who lived at 46
Louisville road, was shot to death by
her husband, Jeep C. Craig, Monday
morning about 8:30 o'clock just as she
was preparing to start her children
off for school. The crime is one of the
most behoused that has been perpetrated
here for some time and caused great
excitement in the neighborhood.
According to the dead woman's daughter, who was an age witness to the whole affair, her stepfather came in about 8 o'clock and told his wife to try him two eggs which were in a dish on the table. The woman replied that she was going to place the hen on them and that he would have to go to the store, two doors away, and buy some eggs if he wanted them cooled. They argued for several minutes and the husband becoming enraged at the woman's persistent refusal, slapped her down twice and was about to kick her when she jumped up and ran out of the house. She ran around the house with the husband in pursuit of her. Just as she reached the door of the house next door and was about to enter he whipped out a revolver and with an oath fired, the bullet striking her in the left side, just below the ribs. She cried out and fell in the doorway where she died in a few minutes. The inmates of the house which she was attempting to enter, and other persons living in the neighborhood, who heard the shot, ran to her assistance but before they could get medical aid the unfortunate woman expired.
According to some of the persons in the neighborhood, the man was under the influence of whiskey though this was denied by others who claim that he was perfectly sober at the time of the killing and was not a man addicted to drinking.
It was learned from the brother-in-law by a former marriage, that this is the second woman's death which is directly traceable to his anger as his first wife died several years ago as the result of his striking her in the stomach with a tree stump while she was in a delicate state. This was made known Tuesday by the man who came here to get his sister's daughter. He said that his slater testified to the attending physician on her dying bed that she had been struck in the stomach by her husband while they were working in the field because be became angered at her on account of some trivial affair during the day.
Mrs. Craig was from Alexander City, Ala., to which place her body was carried by her mother Wednesday afternoon. She was a woman of about 40 years of age and of a very quiet disposition. The dead woman's young daughter was taken by her grandmother to Alexander City.
Shortly after his wife had died and the crowd was viewing the body Craig returned to the scene of the shooting, inquired if she were dead and who told she was said "——I meant to kill her. I'm going in the house and if any one comes for me I've got the same thing for them." He entered the house, got his overcoat and in the excitement escaped by the side door.
The police authorities were notified but when they arrived the man was nowhere to be found and up to last night had not been apprehended.

URBAN LEAGUE FIELDS
DEVELOP RAPIDLY
League Secretaries in Great Demand As Speakers
Eugene Kinclke Jones, executive secretary of the National Urban League and T. Arnold Hill, western field secretary of the National Urban League and executive secretary of the Chicago Urban League, have spent a busy month on the field directing changes and completing new organizations. MF. Jones
attended and addressed the first Industrial Welfare Workers' conference in Pittsburgh, Feb. 19th-20th, held in co-operation with the Pittsburgh Urban League and the Employers' Association. The delegates in attendance were of both races and represented 17,500 workers. Mr. Jones spoke o. the Negroes Future in Industry", and used the new day dawning for the Negro worker, any changes coming will be for the better and that such changes will come largely thru the Negro proving his efficiency by making good in his present job and taking advantage of all opportunities for advancement both in wages and in the scale of employment. He warned Negro workers to be wise in organization, neither allowing him self to be exploited or used as a cat's paw by capital nor to make unprofitable alliances with organized groups that are known to be antagonistic at heart.
Diner A. Carter, Harvard 1912, accompanied Mr. Jones to Columbus, Ohio, to take charges of the Columbia Urban League, relieving Howard K Gregg who Designed as executive secretary of the Columbus Urban League to become Industrial Secretary of the New York Urban League
Miss Katherine Leatt of Macalester College, St. Paul Minnesota Class 1913, and for the past two years student secretary of the Young-Women Christian Association, has also recently been added to the staff of the New York Urban League as head of the Department of Research.
T. Arnold Hill has just completed the foundation of an Urban League in Kansas City, Mo, and Kansas City Kans., where interesting groups of colored and white citizens have organized and elected a strong executive board to handle the affairs of the league.
The National Urban League has enlarged its facilities for conducting research and investigation to meet the constant requests for information of all sorts. The Department of Research is in charge of Mrs. Lillian A. Turner at headquarters, 127 East 23rd street, New York City.
Alexander L. Jackson, educational secretary of the National Urban League who has been loaned by the league to the Interchurch World Movement for its college campaign for Christian service, was one of the speakers at the first campaign meeting held at Hampston Institute, Feb. 21-22nd. Mr. Jackson also represented the league in Boston, Feb. 24th, at a mass meeting held jointly by the trustees of Hampton, Tuskegee, Penn and Calhoun schools speaking on the subject "The Negro in the North." He told of the housing difficulties encountered by the southern Negro coming north, further stressing the fact that his troubles in the north are economic and capable of solution at the hands of the intelligent thinking young generation. "Race Relations" said Mr. Jackson to a large audience mostly white, "is as serious a problem as that of labor. Prejudice has brought about a gap between the races which can only be closed by young white men and women taking up the obligation of making the American Negro feel that there are fair-minded white people in the country. Even in Boston employees will not give Negroes a chance in certain occupations because they are not advanced enough to realize that men should be chosen not because of their color but because of what they can do." On Wednesday night, Feb. 21th, Mr. Jackson addressed the Boston League of Women of Social Service.
A Southern Advisory Committee has been formed by Jesse O. Thomas southern field secretary, to confer all Urban League matters not only Atlanta, the league's southern headquarters, but throughout the south. Dr. James H. Dillard of the Jeanes and Slater funds is chairman of this advisory committee.
SUNDAY IS "VICTORY
POST" DAY AT Y. M. A
The boys who fought in the world war will be in charge of the program at the "X" next Sunday afternoon. These young men are aware of the great help given to them by the "Lost Triangle" at the battle front in Europe and in the training camps in this country, and they are considerably interested in this very vital organization for the uplift of our colored men. The Negro citizenry of this city should, give every appreciation to these brave boys who were willing to, if needed be, to have made the supreme sacrifice. This meeting should be the largest ever held under the auspices of the "X". A good spleaker and excellent program is arranged. We also announce that on account of many people who would like to attend the grand concert announced at the auditorium for March 15th but must observe the Lenten season, the management of the "X" have postponed this entertainment for a later date, the same to be announced later.

DR. EMMETT J. SCOTT, NEGRO REPRESENTATIVE AT CONFERENCE
Emmett Scott Speaks Before Ind. Conf.
Emmett Scott Speaks Before Ind. Conf.
NEGRO LABORERS CAUSE DISCUSSED BY NATIONAL BODY
Recommendations of, Conference Will be Sent to President Wilson
Washington, D. C. March 3—The Industrial Conference which has been in session here in Washington for several months dealing with the problems of Capital and Labor and all of the correlated issues of the present period of industrial unrest, has taken a recess for the purpose of putting into form recommendations of the conference for harmonizing relations between capital and labor.
A great many witnesses have appeared before the committee including former President William H. Tutt, Samuel Gompers, head of the American Federation of Labor; Daniel Willard of the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad and a number of others of importance in the world of affairs, who have offered suggestions with regard to the establishment of a National Employment Exchange, hours of work, wages, women in industry, child labor, the cost of living, etc.
The conference recognized that consideration must be given to the claims of Negro labor and its recommendations, and therefore sought testimony from a representative of the colored people in the person of Dr. Emmett J. Scott, secretary-treasurer of Howard University, who during the World War served as Special Assistant to the Secretary of War. Dr. Scott offered testimony as to the claims of Negro labor to proper consideration in the adjustment of present day industrial problems and set forth in some detail the factors which have been responsible for the large migration of Negroes from the South, as well as the place which these colored laborers are taking in the field of industry in the North. A discussion of the whole Negro problem developed as a result of the friendly questioning on the part of most of the members of the conference which followed Dr. Scott's direct testimony.
The Industrial Conference is composed of such well known Americans as Hon. William S. Wilson, secretary of Labor; Mr. Julius Rosenwald, the Chicago capitalist and philanthropist; Former Governor G. W. McCall; of Massachusetts; Former Governor Martin H. Glyan of New York; Prof. F. R. Tazingo of Harvard University; Mr. Herbert Hoover, food administrator during the World War; Hon. Oscar S. Sturrows, former Secretary of commerce and former Minister to Turkey; Hon George W. Wichershman, Attorney General of the United States during the Taft administration and others of like prominence and importance.
The Conference plans to recommend a National and Regional Board for the adjustment of industrial differences and will seek to forestall disputes as well as to settle them after they arrive. When the drafting committee completes its work the final report will be submitted for acceptance or revision to the full conference, which will lend it to President Wilson.

Negroes Wage War On All Segregation
Negroes Wage War On All Segregation
3,000 VOTE TO FIGHT TO LIVE WHERE THEY CHOOSE
$2,000 Collected at Meeting to Help Campaign for Rights
Chicago, IL, June 1—More than 3,000 Negroes all of whom had signed pledges to support a fight which has as its object entire freedom for Negroes in the selection of homes in any part of Chicago, yesterday applauded speakers at the Eight Regiment Armory who favor "fighting to the death rather than take the slightest step backward in our rights."
There was a belligerent attitude throughout the meeting and one of the speakers asserted that unless early action is taken to protect the rights of Negroes, next summer may bring forth "further and more terrible race riots at a moment's notice."
The Rev. John W. Robinson, pastor of St. Mark's M. E. church, said: "We have grown and have moved into a big house on a front street and we are going to stick. If the white people don't want it, they can get out. Our slogan is 'No backward step,' and we will die in the defense of our position."
Dr. Charles E. Bentley, a Negro lawyer, attacked what he termed an unfair attitude of the Chicago newspapers, and said that proper telling of the Negro's story in the press would add a "progress which will not be halted by anything." He demanded the provision of whites responsible for the burning of Negro homes. M. C. B. Mason Jr., a Harvard graduate and real estate operator, said the Negro wants no new laws in Illinois, but stands ready to make a never-ending fight for the enforcement of protective laws now on the stump talk.
A collection which was taken up to aid the campaign netted more than $2,000.
There have been several bombing expeditions carried out within the past five or six months by whites against Negroes of Chicago, who have moved into neighborhoods. The most recent was that of February 13th when the two houses owned by Mrs. Mary E. Clarke, 4404 and 4406 Grand Boulevard, were attacked, the bomb being thrown in the vestibule of the 4406 house and shattering the entire front of the building and throwing the inmates out of bed. An infant daughter of the sister of the owner was pitched about fifteen feet from her crib by the exlosion and all that prevented her from being seriously injured was the fact that she landed on a bunch of blankets in the corner of the room in which she was sleeping. The bomb was thrown about midnight when the majority of the members of the family were just about to leave a meeting of the Lincoln League and at a time when the policeman who had been standing watch at the house had stepped off for a lunch.
Last summer the, house at 4404 Grand Boulevard was bombed and considerable damage done to the building, all the inmates miraculously escaping injury. About $3,500 damage was done by the last bomb, all of which was covered by insurance. Mrs. Clarke, the owner, is one of Chicago's leading Nero business women. She as succeeded in securing homes for many Negroes in some of the city's most exclusive sections, and it is thought that this is the reason why her property has been singled out as objects of attack by the bombers. Mrs. Clarke is the sister of Mrs. J. H.
RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN
THE RACES DISCUSSED
Judge Admits No Such Thing for Negroes as Equality Before Law
Baltimore, Md., March 1—Relations between the white and colored people of Baltimore were discussed from economic, educational, legal and other viewpoints at the all-day session of the Interracial Conference of Baltimore at the Friend's Meeting House Throughout the discussion, there was evident a spirit of good will and tolerance and realization of the imperfection of human beings and human institutions. Chief Judge Morris A. Sopper of the supreme bench of Baltimore City, admitted there was "actually no such thing as absolute equality of justice before the law." Judge Sopper did say though, that "in Maryland, thank God, there is something approaching justice before the law to the Negro and the white man alike," that at least lives and property to all citizens are fairly safe in this section in contrast to some other. He mentioned the inevitable imperfections of human systems and of human theories and said that one of the best remedies for race antagonism was plain courtesy.
Rev. S. A. Virgil stated in the discussion that followed that the chief trouble in the problem of justice to the Negro lay with the police, and he mentioned an example of unnecessary rough treatment. Judge Sopper in reply said the police magistrate was the most important judge in Baltimore city, and that the appointment of police magistrates was among the most important in the judiciary of the state, because more people came in contact with the police courts than any other
The possibility of building up Negro industries was discussed by Prof. Harry T. Pratt, after an address by the Rev. James J. Cole, secretary of the Presbyterian Federated Council, on "The People." Mr. Cole has spoken of the evil of discrimination between colors in industry and of the attempts of the corporations to lower wages and incidentally to lower living standards by importation of Negro labor. Prof. Pratt said there always would be friction where large bodies of white and colored men were employed together and that apparently the only way to obviate this friction was for the Negroes to build up their own industries. He said this should be possible in Baltimore, with its 100,000 Negroes. He cited the Negro laundry as evidence of what could be done. He declared vocational and industrial schools for colored children were also needed.
A CALL TO THE COLORED MEN OF GEORGIA
Dr. H. R. Butler
There comes a time in the life of every man when he must act. That day has come to the colored men of Georgia. More than a half century has found us sitting idly in our tents, but now the time has come to strike tents and go forward.
Following in the wake of Sherman's army, there were colored men members of the legislature and state senate by the score. There were some mistakes made by some of them, but, on the whole, they gave the state some good laws. There were some strong men among them. In those days it took men to stand up, to defend Republican principles; they swam rivers and dodged Klu Klux and spoke to their people who, often in the face of shot gun resistance, went to the polls and voted. There were giants in those days, where we have pimies now, to very large degree. I do not mean to say we have no strong men today, we have a few, but they are heard only every four years.
I want to call on the men to go to your county seats and pay your taxes and register. Every man in Georgia, who is a man, will go and register, but every slacker will stay away from the court house and not register, and by so doing will say that he is satisfied with lynching, poor schooling for his children and Jim crow cars. I call on our women to make homes hot for their husbands, brothers and sons until they register and vote for their protection. The God of our fathers calls to you men over the years to be men and to stop being slackers. See to it that the white Repubilicans in your counties help you to organize the county and put out county, city and state tickets. Let us put a stop to this quadrennial baby rattle politics. Give us a ticket every year in the cities, counties and state and then when the presidential election comes we will not have such a hard time organizing our forges, we will already have them lined up. Wake up, you sleepy men, and go to work to save yourselves. Let every man be a committee of one to see to it that the other fellow register and pays his taxes, then if he will not let the people know he is a slacker. Men, don't you hear the VOICE CALLING YOU?
N. A. A. C. P. TO HOLD MEETING Next Wednesday night, March 10 the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People will hold a big mass meeting at St. Phillip's church Charles and Weef Braad streets, and its officers especially urge the preachers, teachers, business men, insurance men, ship-workers, stewardors, ex-soldiers and the people to be present. There will be live discussions of registration, the presidential election, the public school building program in Savannah, business co-operation and the general welfare of colored people in Savannah. Reports of the various officers will be made and the annual election of officers will be held. President F. S. Belcher has issued

MIGRO IN PUBLIC EDUCATION Colored people are very properly raised over the apparent neglect or the Negro children's needs in the announced apportionment of the half million dollar school bond money. If newspapers reflect the intentions of the Board of Education in the matter of expending this sum of money, it appears that it will all be consumed before the big program for enlarging the white school facilities is carried out.
When the bond issue was proposed, Negroos without, dissent rallied to the call of those who sought to have the bond issue carry. Every Negro preacher appealed from his pulpit to have his congregation register every vote in the church for bonds. Through the schools a vigorous campaign was waged upon the family circle so as to cause every voter to go to the polls and vote for bonds. Negro societies, clubs and political organizations held meetings and rallies calling on the registered men among them to join in the task of "putting over bonds." The two Negro newspapers kept appeals and by giving publicity to meetings and campaigns, waged in this behalf. Every registered Negro voter cast his vote "for school bonds."
The vote was close, and but for the solid vote of our people the proposal would have failed to carry with the vote us cast at the election. And this, even, does not matter so long as it appears that Negroes voted for the proposition at all, and that it carried; for bonds having carried, there would rest upon those administering the public school fund the solemn and sacred duty of administering and apportioning them equitably and solely upon the basis of the relative needs of the two principal groups of the city's population
Moreover, the relative voting strength of this or that group of the people can never, in logic or law, be made the basis upon which educational opportunities are provided. If this were at all true, then the weaker people, politically and otherwise, would never be raised out of their wretched estate. The very theory of education presupposes that its benefits are provided for those who are too poor and too backward and ignorant to provide it for themselves. And the state realizing that the very bulwark of government rests upon the public, free education of the masses of the people, without regard to race, nationality or creed, has everywhere framed its laws and secured its revenues for educational purposes-upon this theory and looking toward this end.
It is backward, and looks like retrogression, for this community to rest while Negro children, who need light and education most, must continue to use the Maple, West Broad and even the East Broad schools. It must be that the masses of the people do not quite realize these pitiable conditions. The Maple and West Broad street schools do not even amount to "make-shifts," so aggravated is their condition and inadequacy for their purposes.
· the whites and the announced program of building and remodeling to merely explain that half a million dollars "was too little an issue" anyway? Does that explain, when Negroes need education to a larger extent than whites? Does it explain, when the populations are about equal? Does it explain, when Negroes have so little at present? Does it satisfy the yearning Negro child who has no place from lack of seat and lack of a school conveniently located?
Seriously, and more seriously, the Negro people have exercised a rare patience under these trying conditions the worst in this state. The leaders here have co-operated with the Board's officials in every movement looking toward the upbuilding of the schools, and have been promised from time to time that conditions will be bettered. Can this city, conscientiously and at a right, expend this $500,000 of bond money without allowing the Negro schools to share in it to a large extent? Needling and deserving by right at least one-half of the whole amount, wouldn't it be the part of simple justice, ordinary fair-play and of moral duty to use at least, more than a fourth portion of it for the construction of new schools for Negroes and the rehabilitation of these old structures.
Who could deny that. Negroes, by every manner of consideration would be entitled to such an amount? Who
THE SAVANNAH TRIBUNE
could say, that a sense of justice does not dictate it?
The justice and fairness of the Board of Education to Negroes in the past obligates it to rise to the heights of justice and fairness in this instance, in this matter of apportioning this cost $500,000.
The opportunities, the peace and the justice which the Savannah Negro has enjoyed with this people for generations has been published and heralded abroad. Few cities anywhere, north or south, have been freer from racial clashes and conflicts of interests based upon such considerations. Negro business here has reached a grade not reached by Negroes in any other city of the union. All's the more reason why school conditions and other public benefits should keep apace, with this progress. But it has not.
Negro people are helping to make Savannah the commanding city that it is; helping to put it in the fore-rank of the great, modern, new cities of the after-war forward movement. The city can ill afford to suffer such a wrong as it would be if Negro people did not share largely in the benefits in education which are to be derived from the projected campaign for more, better-equipped and modern public schools.
The honds[were issued to raise money for improving the public school system of the city and county. The basis of improving them is need and the school population. The money cannot, then, rightly and legally, be expended except upon this basis.

SEGREGATION IN BIG CITIES Local troubles arising from the purchase of more desirable residential property by Negroes, in practically all the big cities, will not down. There continues to be more or less disturbance due to practices of intimidation, terrorism, bomb-throwing and other acts of violence committed against Negroes who have purchased their homes or other properties for the conduct of businesses in neighborhoods where the bulk of the residents are whites. Even in communities where for a number of years a few Negroes have lived, the most violent opposition is experienced by other Negroes, new-comers to those neighborhoods.
These troubles, in some cases resulting in damage to life, limb and property, are very prevalent in several of the larger cities of the North, the resentment toward the Negro home-buyers being fomented and kept alive by organizations of white residents of the neighborhoods affected.
It is interesting to quote the Acts and Laws of the Congress of the United States in this matter of property rights:
"All citizens of the United States shall have the same right in every state and territory as is enjoyed by white citizens thereof to inherit purchase, lease, sell, hold and convey real and personal property."
—Section 178 of the laws of the United States, enacted April 9, 1886.
"All persons within the jurisdiction of the United States shall have the same right in every state and territory to make and enforce contracts, to sue, be parties, give evidence, and to the full and equal benefit of all laws and proceedings for the security of persons and property as is enjoyed by white citizens, and shall be subject to like punishment, pains, penalties, taxes, licenses and evictions of every kind and to no other."—See 1977 of the Laws of the United States, enacted May 31, 1870.
"Every person who under color of any statute, ordinance, regulation, custom or usage of any state or territory, subjects or causes to be subjected, any citizen of the United States or other person within the jurisdiction thereof to the deprivation of any rights, privileges or immunities secured by the Constitution and laws shall be liable to the party injured in an action at law, suit in equity, or other proper proceeding for redress"—Sec. 1979 of Laws of the United States, enacted April 20, 1871.
What the U. S. Supreme Court Says "An agreement not to convey or lease land to persons of a specified race is inoperative and voids violating the 14th Amendment to the Constitution, and is not enforcible in equity."—U. S. Supreme Court in case of Gandolfe v. Hartman, 49 Federal Report, P. 181.
These acts were passed at a time when, immediately following the emancipation of the slaves, Congress could forsece the necessity of forstalling efforts which might be made to defeat the general declaration of freedom and the spirit of equality before the law.
These acts have never been repealed or abrogated, though hundreds of efforts have been made, through the years that have intervened, by various states and municipalities, principally in the South, to do so. The tendency of Congress and of the Supreme Court of the United States whenever that tribunal has been brought to declare itself on any phase of segregation, has been to draw the lines tighter to secure absolute equality in the matter of real property rights.
In the fall of 1918, the supreme Court of the United States, ruling one case carried up from the State of Kentucky (at that time various states and cities had passed segregation acts and ordinances which were affected by this decision, many of them having been upheld by state Supreme Courts), held, in substance, that there was also lately no distinction of property rights based upon considerations of race. Their action was comprehensive-and sweeping, and while it was shocking and revolutionary in its effect upon those who believed in segregation, there has been no attempt to deny its constitutionality or to refuse to obey is mandates; save through lawlessness and intimidation such as we have here been discussing.
an unusual fact is, that this momentous decision of the Supreme Court came under a Democratic administration; from a court, the members of which are partly appointees of a Democratic president, and the Chief Justi-

Labor shortage in the North caused migration, Migration still goes on. Wilder industrial opportunities extended to Negro workers, as a direct result of this, resulted in higher wages and increasing economic strength among the workers. Increasing populations in the cities and greater economic power both raise a demand for better housing. This better housing is not to be found in the "ghettoes" in which Negroes have lived in other years it rather is only found in better residential districts. Negro tenants and buyers have been willing to pay higher prices than whites for like consideration in the way of houses, and hence the whites have been pushed out by economic laws that are both natural and inevitable. In fact, the new Negro demands and desires a better home and is able to pay for it.
These are the facts, and they are everywhere largely the same. The conditions which have brought about these changes have been abrupt because of war conditions; but the results of war on social and economic conditions are always abrupt. Negro people, be it said to their credit, have no inordinate desire to live in white neighborhoods because they are white. They much prefer to live among their own people; and this may be said of all Negroes, good and bad. We do, however, desire comfort and convenience which wage conditions, restricted opportunities and bad laws have hitherto made it impossible for us to enjoy. No one can deny us the right to ordinary comfort as a reward for our toll.
Economic laws provide the only justifiable segregation, the natural grouping of citizens according to their economic power to purchase, own and possess property. People of all races, as a rule, live in circumstances consistent with their ability to do so. People of means live in good houses, on good streets and in neighborhoods convenient to cars, parks, good lights, police and fire protection and the like. People up to afford themselves the comforts gravitate to lower level positions of living.
It we shall be a law-abiding people and will give less worry and concern to oppression and discrimination and injustice, and more interest to uphold the Constitution and laws of our government and to maintaining the ideals for which the government was established and for which all our wars have been fought. America will surely be saved to Democracy and "the world be a much better place, to live in."
A YOUNG BUSINESS MAN
A YOUNG BUSINESS MAN
Mr. Milton G. Robertson, Jr., of the official staff of the Wage Earners Bank of Savannah, Ga., has been spending a few days in the city of Charleston where he is well known and has made many new friends. He is a well educated) thoroughly trained and experienced business man, being a graduate of Tulladega College and has been connected with the Wage Earners Bank for the past five years, so that he is familiar with the growth and progress of that successful Negro institution.
Mr. Robertson visited the Jenkins Orphanage on Thursday afternoon and gave a very practical business address to a meeting of the workers. His talk was filled with good advice in regard to punctuality, loyalty and efficiency on the part of those who are engaged in business. He spoke of the great opportunities that are now being opened for colored people in the different lines of business. He spoke of the large number of business enterprises among colored people of Savannah and especially of the Consolidated Realty Corporation with authorized capital of $1,000,000 and in which the workers were invited to take stock. Mr. Robertson's visit to Charleston has resulted in arousing a greater interest in business on the part of our people and we hope that he will come again—Charleston Messenger.
COLORED MAN NOT AS
BAD AS PICTURED
American white women for decades have been blindfolded and duped as to the colored man. The colored man has been held up before our eyes as a lustful and vicious creature. As a consequence, great masses of us, and because of ignorance of literature and statistics bearing on the truth of the case, have come to believe the unwarranted and unfounded charge against the colored man as a class. But the undeniable, rock-bottom truth is that Negro men are no more prone to commit heinous crimes against women than are other men. If there be any one who doubts the truth of this statement let them make a comparative study of the statistics bearing on lecherous crimes against women and their doubts will vanish. The result of the comparison will be in favor of the colored man. If I were to publish the figures I have on my desk I would start my readers. Colored men in other countries such as Canada, Central America, South America, West Indies and Africa are not pictured as the arch assailants of women. In fact, it is said that the attitude of the native African toward women is superior in polifit of decency to that of men in the most highly cultured countries. When I am told that the colored man is so lustfully inclined, I ask why is that there are 4,000,000 mulattoes in the United States and that this number is yearly increasing. White men tremble before this question. They know they are responsible. Yet many of them are always telling us women about "Negro brutes" and "Negro rapists." In the south, my native home, where there is the loudest cry about "race separation" and "white persecution" the greatest mingling of white men and colored women takes place. The south is the garden spot of mulattoes. It must not be assumed that white women will always remain ignorant of and indifferent to this fact. Many of us are wide awake and are thinking, although only a few of us dare to express ourselves publicly on this question.
Of course, I am intelligent enough to know the reason for this denunciation of the colored man. One of the objects is to keep the gap as wide as pos-
sible between the white woman and the colored man. 'But why is there little or no effort to widen the gap between the white man and the colored woman? Why are our men not punished for intimate relations with colored women? No! This would interfere with white men's social freedom. Yet they arrogate into themselves the role of supreme dictator as to the race or color of men with whom we must or must not mingle, while they will brook no interference as to the race or color of women with whom they mingle and become intimate.
With all the emphasis at my command I affirm that the colored man is not the unworthy creature that the press, platform? pulpit, and the movies have pictured him to be. The veil of illusion' is being gradually removed from white women's eyes.—Miss Critical Observer, in the Baltimore Ameri-

HAMPTON DEFEATS
By Charles H Williams
Hampton, Va., Feb. 29—Hampton defeated Lincoln in Philadelphia on Friday night. Feb. 27th before one of the largest and most enthusiastic crowds of basketball fans that ever gathered in Music Fund Hall. It was truly a college night, and supporters of both teams were out in full force. Philadelphia is known as a "Lincoln City," but Friday night was a Hampton night. Not only did the Hampton team outplay Lincoln, but the Hampton alumni and supporters out sang and out yelled the Lincolniotes. Inspired by the yelling and songs, the Hampton team played its best game of the season. Not since the championship days of 1915 and 1916 has the Hampton team exhibited such fighting spirit.
Lincoln started the scoring, but their joy was short-lived. Hampton soon overtook the lead, by scoring several baskets in short succession. The game was a thriller. It was more closely contested than the score indicates. The spectacular playing on both sides brought the great crowd to its feet time after time. In fact, the first half brought one sensation after another. Freeman and Wright in guard, McLaren in forward for Hampton, and Wheatland in center for Lincoln were easily the stars of the game. The Hampton guards both guarded and shot exceptionally well, while McLaren was everywhere apparently at the right time.
The basketball lovers of Philadelphia were given a rare treat and a very great surprise by the playing of the Hampton "farmers". The game was free from un- sport-man-like conduct. A real college spirit prevailed throughout.

CAR MORRIS BROWN.
Valdosta, Ga., Feb 27.
Dear Mr. Editor:
Please allow me space in your paper to say a few words about the affairs of Georgia, relative to the great work accomplished by the sons of Georgia in the past nine years. With the great leader of men and expansioner of the educational system of Georgia, Bishop J. S. Flipper, and his herculean comrade in the person of Dr. W. A. Fountain, who has proven himself not only to be a great administrator of the college but a headlight for his race, for whom all men should rally to bestow upon him deserved honor of being, one of the bishops of the A. M. E. church, we in Georgia have made strides educationally such as have not been before.
Mr Editor, be it far from me that you or any one else should get the impression that we, the Georgia Regulars, would release our great chancellor, Dr W A Foutair, any other cause but that we may now upon him the highest gift of A. M. E. church.
Mr Editor, we find that it is the wish of Georgia that not only should our educational chieftain be elevated to the bishopric but another son of connectional tame in the person of Dr Wm D Johnson, a man in every way deserving of the highest gift of the A. M. E. church. Georgia wants him also elevated.
Because of the educational system of Georgia, if in case Dr. Fountain is elevated to the bishopric, we do not have to go beyond its borders to find men to carry on the work of Morris Brown University. We have within our domain Prof. C. G. Wiley, A. M. for eighteen years principal of the high school at Valdosta, Ga., Prof. A. B. Cooper, A. M. for several years president of Payee College; Dr. G. M. Maninoz, principal of Central Park Normal and Industrial Institute; Dr. L. M. Smith, a scholar and theologian, and others whom it is not necessary to mention What Georgia, if Dr. Fountain is elevated, must have is a man who can administer the affairs of Morris Brown University system, conceive plans and execute them in such a way that great good may be accomplished. More anon.

WAYCROSS, GA. NEWS
Miss Reather M. Woods the daughter of Dr. S. W. Woods, P. D. of the Brunswick district, has accepted the position as district clerk with the Liberty Mutual Life and Health Insurance Company. In our last write up about the work of our doctors while the flu has been so bad we forgot to mention the old pioneer, Dr. G. P. Washington, who is the dady of them all. He is still on the job. Prof. R. W. Williams and Pres. L. R. Moore of the business league and secretary of the Waycross Casket Co. spent Sunday at Homerville, Ga.
Miss O. C. Wade, C. Taylor, C. M. Thomas, Willie McGraw, the four young ladies who entertained the young men and friends on last Friday night need to be complimented for the way they entertained their guests. The affair was quite a swell one. There was nothing but joy and pleasure to all present. There were quite a number of visitors in the city on Wednesday attending the Eleventh Congressional Republican district meeting which was held at the McGraw's auditorium. Rev S. D. Brown who recently organized his church at Billys Island returned on last Tuesday and reported a great meeting Sunday. He also spent a few days in Broxton. When you want to read about the progress of the race, be sure to read The Tribune. Only $1.50 per year.
Dr. R. J. Brown a brother-in-law of Dr. R. W. Verner, who lives in Nortolk. Va. stopped over a day in the city, while on his way home from jacksonville, Fla.
Dr. S. D. Cotrell made a trip to Jacksonville on last Thursday on business.
Mr. and Mrs. R. F. Singleton spent Sunday in Jacksonville, Fla., visiting friends.
Mr. A. C. Gillbert, inspector for the Georgia Mutual Insurance Co., arry-
ed in the city on Sunday night and is taking the inspection of R. F. Crittenden's debit. So far he has found his record clear.
Mr. E. W. Langston, state supervisor for the Liberty Mutual Ins. Co., spent Sunday and Monday in Brunswick with his family.
At last the colored people who like to go to the moving pictures will have a place to, go where they will not be jim-crowed, as a building is now going up on Parallel and E street strictly for colored, owned by a white gentleman, but runned by colored help.
WARE COUNTY NEGRO
FAYETTEST. CO
Many colored farmers of Ware and surrounding counties attended the conference held under the supervision of the farm demonstration agent, Dr. A. H. Hinesman, at Waycross, Feb. 27 and 28. Subjects pertaining to better farming, better living and better business were discussed. The meeting was full of interest, information and inspiration. Able addresses of welcome on the part of the people of the city of Waycross were made. Mrs. W. G. Hill of Savannah addressed the conference on Friday evening upon the subject "The Necessary Co-operation of Farmers." Prof F. R. Lampkin of the State College at Savannah delivered an address upon "The Importance of having a Right Vision.
Ware county is one of the few counties in the state that believes in the statement, to elevate the Negro means to elevate the white man. This was shown during the conference by the presence and able addresses of V. L. Stanton, president of the board of education; Dr. Seulley city, health officer; Daniel Lott of the D. and (0. Lott Real Estate firm and L. C. Walker, the farm demonstrator, white
The work of Dr. Hinesman among the farmers of the county is beginning to have a telling effect. This is proved by the interest which the farmers showed in attending the conference. The conference this year in February shows a great improvement over that of last September. The number of clubs have increased from 2 to 4. This phase of the work among colored farmers is heartily supported by the cooperation of the county officials and business men with the county agent.

Yours truly

THE PEOPLE'S FEDERATION
The mass meeting in the interest of the People's Federation at Morris Brown A. M. E. church on last Tuesday was largely attended. The Federation is growing rapidly in membership And in interest that is being aroused in business enterprises among the colored people. Interesting addresses were made by Messrs J. G. Lem on and M. G. Robertson of Savannah Ga., and Rev. M. M. Mouzon and R. Kemp. Books for the sale of stock in the People's Federation Bank, were also opened and considerable bank stock was sold. The bank expects to be ready to do business in a few days. The colored people of the city of Charleston are taking more interest in business affairs than ever before. A business meeting of the Federation will be held at an early date.—Charleston Messenger.
At a spirited meeting of the Fox Club held on Tuesday night at which time the election of officers took place. Mr. Daniel Boykin Jones was elected president over his opponent, Mr. John Harris, the present incumbent. The contest for the office was a heated one and every phase of parliamentary usage known to the supporters of the two candidates was put into force. Mr. Harris who was not present at the meeting on account of sickness had to rely upon a few of his friends to look after his interest. Through absent he was defeated by a small majority of nine votes. Mr. Jones, the newly elected president, is an untiring worker and has done much to bring the Fox Club up to its present standing. He was instrumental in placing the club in its present quarters, organized the ladies branch and put into operation other things of a constructive nature during a previous administration. The other officers elected were: Frank Bogan, vice president; W. G. Wilson, financial secretary; John W. Scott, recording secretary; Dan Cuthbert, treasurer; Charlie Sabattie, advocate; Eddie Sabattie, sergeant at arms; Henry Bourquin, chairman of house.
