The Savannah Tribune NATIONAL ASSOCIATION WANTS MEMBERSIP OF QUARTER MILLION VOL. XXXVI Organization Adopts A Fighting Program Declares Force of a Quarter Million People Cannot Be Ignored New York, Feb. 12—James Waldon Johnson, secretary of the National Association for the Admendment of Colored People, 70 Fifth Avenue, New York, today announced that the association was about to enter upon u dire to increase its membership to 250,000 before next June. In making the announcement, Mr. Johnson made public the fighting program which the association had adopted for the coming year. Mr. Johnson's statement follows. "A quarter of a million people is a force which cannot be ignored. Neither Congress, nor the oppressors of colored labor in the South, nor the newspapers, can ignore a quarter of a million colored and white people determined that the Negro shall be given in the United States what the Federal Constitution promises to every man irrespective of race or color. "With a totally inadequate membership the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People has already undertaken and carried to a successful conclusion tasks of the first magnitude. The brutal invasion and the arploitation of Haiti was brought before the bar of judgment not only of Americans but of the civilized world. Anti-lynching legislation has been introduced, at the instance of this association, in both houses of Congress. The disafflanchment of colored people has been carried before the Census Committee of the House of Representatives. A campaign initiated against the Ku Klux Klan by the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People has met with the endorsement and support of labor unions in New York and elsewhere. Robert L. Hill, charged with leading the colored farmers in Arkansas, was defended in court and freed and the cases of his companions carried to the state supreme court of Arkansas which twice reversed their convictions. "These are only a few of the activities of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People in 1820. They will be extended and given greater power as the membership increases. The association has no hesitation in making a country-wide appeal for cooperation and support, and for a quarter of a million members or more before next June, in behalf of the following programme for 1821: 1. Anti-lynching legislation by Congress. 2. Abolition of segregation in the downtown at Washington. department at Washington. 3. Entrance ofment of the Negro in the South or reduction of southern representation, if necessary. 4. Restoration of Haitian independence and separation, as far as possible for wrongs committed there by the American administration, through Congressional investigation of both military and civil acts of the American occupation. 5. Presentation to the new president of a manmoth petition of say, 100,000 bonafide slimers, collected by various branches, requesting the parition of the soldiers of the 25th infantry imprisoned at Lervenworth on the charge of rioting at Houston, Texas. 6. The abolition of Jim Crow cars in interstate traffic. 7. Treatment of colored men in the Navy; where once many rating as noncommission officers were held by Negroes, now colored men can call only as mess boys, in other words, as servants. 8. Appointment of colored assistant secretaries in the Departments of Labor and Agriculture which would give the Negro official representation in the two phrases of national life where he needs most and suffers most. 9. Appointment of a national Intercultural commission to make an earnest study of race conditions and race relations in the United States. 10. Continuance of the fight in the Arkansas cases. 11. The successful holding of the Second Pan-African Congress that the colored people of the world may gain a more understanding of their problems. 12. The defeat by over legitimate means of the nefarias Ku Klux Klan, both South and North. both countries. "In organization there is power. As I have said a quarter of a million is a force which cannot be ignored."

DEMOCRATIC LEADERS GLAD FOR NEGRO SUPPORT Houston, Texas, Feb. 10th (Associated Negro Press)—There are signs which point to the danger of the colored voters, in this city, capturing the machinery of the local Democratic Party. The present primary election is the innocent cause of the situation. And so secure is the probability that local Democratic leaders have taken serious steps to bring about annulment of the law. This fact was brought to light last Monday morning in the court room of Judge Charles L. Ashe where eminent counsel contended that the city had no legal right to hear the expenses of the scheduled primary election for the ninth of February. Ornately the primary law would have been allowed to go its way. But recently local colored leaders have shown a marked disposition to forge the Republican ranks and affiliate with the Democratic organization, Lily- Whitman is said to be at the bottom of the desire. This fact was pushed out into the linelight at last Monday, hearing before Judge Ashe. Several colored men confessed that they were bent on going into the primaries to make a fight for recognition and a vote in government by throwing their support to such Democratic candidates, as has shown a disposition to give the Negro a fair chance. The democratic primary has been therefore purely a white man's primary and as it operates here and in other Southern states, had been poorly actually the real election day, all actual issues being fought out in the primary colored voters sought. In conjunction seeking to restrain the interference in their voting, the primary and the influence moved to annul the law, claiming that the primary was illegal. J. R. Griggs, F. C. Tilcherd, son, J. C. N. Love, W. I. Davis, Wm Nickelson, J. Jr. Norman, Dudley Jr. and Perry Mack were leaders in the movement. Not a few Democratic leaders would be glad of Negro support if it were not for the fear that the colored leaders would finally take advantage of the power of a majority role and thereby capture the Democratic organization. This is too bitter a pill to swallow even by inference. Hence there has been a cry sent out from Macedonia and Judge Ashe has been called upon to hold back the impending "higher flood." SAVANNAH, GA.. SATURDAY FEBRUARY 19, 1921 THE BEST SELLER DISTRICT ATTY. STIRRED STATE And Attracts National Attention By Deploring and Denouncing Lawlessness in Georgia Atlanta, Ga., Feb. 16th (By Associated Negro Press)—Hopper Alexander, of the northern district of Georgia, has stirred the entire state, and attracted the attention of police and a nation. He has recently been making a series of statements in language that cannot be misunderstood, deploring and denouncing the lawlessness in certain sections of Georgia. Because of these statements, regardless of the fact that they are filled with truth, a number of newspapers of the south have taken Mr Alexander to task. They have accused him of playfully to get favor with the Republicans so as to retain his office. He has come back with a statement that the position is not "iterative" as money goes these days, and that he has only with held his resignation for the last year through loyalty. He retorts with the statement that if those who criticize him will "let me tell them a few of the things that are going on they also have done," he instead of throwing the weight of their party flavor of the disgraceful things that are going on, unwholeshed of justice, they will join in my protest. The Moon News, daily, comes back with a reply, which plainly shows that there are sections of the white Sun. where it is not desired that the truth be known regardless of how horrible the conditions may be, there are those who wish to wish their eyes to the terrible blindness, and even when a brave official and respected white citizen like District Attorney Alexander comes to the front, they wish to put "cotton in his mouth." After paying this high tribute to Mr. Alexander: "Mr. Alexander holds a high office and when he speaks a great deal of importance is attached to what he says. He is a man of culture and intelligence. He does not belong to the 'radical school'." The Macon News makes this warning: "If Mr. Alexander could have seen the two column headlines on the front page of the New York Times which said, 'In New York city he would have had a rather different idea, and it was just such a course which led to the comments made in the Macon News." The New York Tribune has many merits, but it is one of the most virtuous and unrealizing critics of the South we have in this day and then. It has a tradition feeling which makes it the principal bias of the old time abolitionists and it never overlook an opportunity to lustre the South. "There are several other such papers in the North. There is the Boston Trilogy, for example, which has not written a line that was fair and just to the South for a generation. It still lives in the days of Uncle Tom's Cabin. It wakes up every morning with a subconscious feeling that it ought to send a reporter around the corner to report a speech by Wendell Phillips or William Llord Harrison. There can be no possible doubt as to the royalty of Mr. Alexander to the South and to its old-time institutions. But it is entirely possible that he does not always stop to weigh his words. His statement, given out to the "Local press" which means that it was probably cabled around the world, gives a very erroneous expression of conditions in the South, and if Mr. Alexander canidled with himself he must know this better than his critics." "LINK" JOHNSON NOT TO GO TO HAITI The following communication from Hon. Henry Lincoln Johnson, Republican national committeeman from Georgia, to Editor B. J. Davis of the Atlanta Independent, will be of interest to Negroes throughout the country in view of recent newspaper articles in which it was said that Johnson had or was about to resign as Republican national committeeman to become minister to Haiti at ten thousand dollars a year: "1461 S Street, N. W. Washington, D. C. Feb. 15, 1921 "Mr. B. J. Davis. "You advise me that the newspapers in Georgia carry a story that I am to be made Minister to Haiti at ten thousand dollars a year and to resign as National Committeeman. "Tell to every friend of our, and, to the whole world, that such is not the fact. I was elected National Committeeman by the electorate of the State of Georgia and those electing me did so purposely that I might function as such. I shall never resign as a memoir of the Republican National Committee, so help me God. I shall never accept an appointment that shall take me out of the United States. I shall never accept any position, however loaded with flattering emolument that will interfere, in the remotest, with my functioning as National Committeeman. I expect to so conduct myself, with faith in God and loyalty to the Republicans of the state of Georgia and to my race, that at the next election time I shall again be made the National Committeeman of Georgia. God hins brought me back from the shadows of the grave to do this work of an evangel in fighting against the terrorism that has tormented the souls of my poor, downtrodden people, and, if necessary, I can live without public office, for, when I am hungry, I can go back, even to the peasants whom I am trying to serve, for my daily bread. "God bless us all, and pray that through this crisis we may fight like vultant soldiers against any new fangtled change from the ancient history and traditions of the Republican party as laid down by Lovejoy, by Greeley, by Summer and glorified by Krolerick Douglass. "You can make use of this letter in such way as to you may best." Humbly, Henry Lincoln Johnson Georgia Member of Republican National Committee" YAMACRAW KINDERGARTEN TO HOLD MEETING There will be a meeting of the Yama- craw Free Kindergarten Association at Carnegie Library Monday, Feb. 21st at 6:30 p.m. All members are urged to be present.

COOLIDGE RECEIVES CHILL V-PRES. COOLIDGE RECEIVES CHILL Because Of Statement Made in Atlanta Declared That White Southerners Are The Negroes Best Friends Chicago, Ill., Feb. 16th (By Associated Negro Press)—Vice-President elect, Calvin Coolidge, according to authentic reports, felt a chill" go up his spine when the statement he made about white southerners being the best friends of the Negroes, was met with rigid and frigid indifference. The psychology of this notable event is very peculiar, and is worthy of explanation. There is no American who has been more admired for his honesty for purpose and fearlessness in the cause of justice, than Gov. Coolidge, so far as colored Americans are concerned. The silence of that great Atlanta audience was not scorn, hatred, nor indifference. The silence was due to disappointment, pity and thoughtfulness. All the records go to prove that memory out of every one hundred northern white people who go South, and come under the symbolical influences of the crafty southerners, who cleverly and designedly seek to impress their point of view on the visitor, come away "solid." The Associated Negro Press could counteract hundreds of instances, and there is in mind the case of a nationally prominent white editor who but recently was there, and who was brought under the same influence, but refused to be "sold." How delighted the white South is over compromising statements like Gov. Coolidge made is expressed typically in an editorial from the Charlotte, N. C., Observer, daily. It says: "The day before he departed from Atlanta for Asheville, Vice-President Coolidge was invited to make an address in a Negro church. The invitation was accepted and the visitor delivered himself of a pointed bit of advice. He told the Negroes that "the white people of North have done much in money and educators sent them", but the people of the South have done even more than that. He advised the Negro to bear this fact in mind and to "appreciate the work of their white neighbors in their behalf". Doing that and making conversations effort on their own part to better their condition," was Mr. Coolidge's idea of the best thing for the Negroes of the South. The Vice-President Coolidge appointed to have a sense of the opportunity at hand to say something of real benefit to the Negroes, and now that they have had this advice from a man they know must be their friend, they should be inclined to give it serious thought. Mr. Coolidge words were丰满, but they encompassed a mighty truth." President-elect Harding has come under that same influence, but he has made this far, no break that would indicate that he has been "sold" in 1870, 500,000 American colored people have been nervously watching every turn up the bends of the Indian river, so to speak. Those who know President-elect Harding best, and their name is legend, have the most earnest assurance that he will countenance no unfair advantages. As an editor and United States Senator, Mr. Harding is a well informed man on American problems. Senator Harding is no stranger to the South, for years before he was a senator he spent his winters in Florida. The Coolidge incident shows that American colored people are not being carried away with hounded words, regardless of the source, and that they have their own ideas about "best friends," and why such should be entitled to that appreciation. JOHNSON-TAYLOR-JOHNSON TROI DELIGHTS/AUDIENCE The Johnson-Taylor-Johnson trio, of Chicago, appeared here in recital at the Catholic hall Wednesday night in what was, by all means, the most delightful and pleasing musical program heard in Savannah for many a day. In fact, the renditions of these three excellent artists from the Windy City were flawless and should have been heard by every lover of high class music in the city instead of the small audience which was present. the excellence or in voice or take time did not have the opportunity to display itself as on last Wednesday night. They were both in most charming voice and the number of delighted by them constituted a very delightful and pleasing program. Mr. Johnson's excellent tenor voice rage out in tones clear, distinct, sweet and its range truly marvowishly Mrs. Johnson brought to her lovely mezzo-sprangin voice in a most charmingly delightful manner. T. Theodore Taylor, pianist, the instrumentalist of the trist, equalled and even surpassed advanced reports of his playing which had reached the city. His numbers were all excellently rendered and his performance in entirety was very delightful. Mr. Taylor played the accompaniments for Mr. and Mrs. Johnson and much of the credit for the charming performance of the solistis must be given to him.

NEGROES BALK AT LYNCHING NEGRO Assaulted Negro Girl on Way From School Instead They Take Him to Bryan County Jail in Clyde Pembroke, Ga., Feb 14—An unidentified 19岁 age about 35 years, narrowly escaped being刺到 near Reka Bryan county, late to night by a mole composed of Negroes, after he had been identified gas the assailant of a Negro school girl. The mole which caught him at Lauier fire hours after the assault, left the decision with the victim whether the Negro should be lynched. She is reported to have said she wanted him killed. The white men in the pose then turned him over to the 200 Negroes present and told them to do their duty. The white men then returned to their homes believing that a Negro had been lynched by Negroes, but a few hours later it was reported that the mole decided to allow the law to take its course and had proceeded to Clyde, the county site, seventeen miles away, where he was to be surrendered to the sheriff.

White men led them and one of the posses overtook the man they wanted at Lanken, a few miles past of Pembroke. He was back to Krefk and politically identified the man.

At an early hour Tuesday morning the prisoner had not been received at the jail at Clyde. It is about seventeen miles from Ikea and the roads are said to be bad. News of the attack on the young girl was given by her two younger brothers who were with her on their way from school when she was attacked by the man who is said to be an escaped Llynn county convict. When the man attacked the girl one of the boys ran home and spread the news, the other goffg to an uncle's house near by, and informing him of what had taken place. DISCRIMINATORY CONTRACTS VIGOROUSLY ASSAILED Chicago, Ill. Feb. 10th (Associated Negro Press)—A strong, concerted effort was made before the United States R. L. Labor Board at Chicago in the interest of the colored railway employees, recent. Discriminatory contracts and misapplied seniority rules were vigorously assaulted by the representatives of our race organizations in the persons of R. L. Mays, of the Railway Men's International Association, (tale Long of Birmingham, Alabama), of the Association of European President John H. Eland of Memphis, Teen, of the Association of Colored Trainmen. Each organization was in support of a demand of an abrogation of the existing national agreements where the same precluded the craft advancement of colored men and wongen in the ser- rice. The case as presented were the result of a month's conference between the colored leaders who were in daily attendance at the sessions of the Board and who had been given full rights to appear and present evidence on the matter of rules and working conditions of the railway employees. Following an excellently prepared brief by Mr. Eland, President Mays and President Long of the Colored Locomotive firemen, submitted rules for all classes of the mechanical and shop employees. The representatives were accorded the annual honor of being openly complimented by certain members of the Board and many of the able attorneys and spectators present at the hearing. President Mays virtually placed Mr. Forrester of the Board on the witness stand and proved that the white organizations were discriminatory by a speech Mr. Forrester had made while at Atlantic City in 1916 after Mr. Forrester had sought to establish as a fact that the white shop unions were fair. The plea made by all organizations was for "open-opportunity" irrespective of race or color. NUMBER 18 With Special Negro Feature Picture New House Built At Approximate Cost of $75,000.00 'The new Dunbar theatre which was complete this week will be opened to the public Monday noon and will have a continuance performance until eleven o'clock that night. This theatre which occupies the south west corner of the large four story office building which the Savannah Savings and Real Estate Corporation is erecting at Gaston and West Broad streets, is without doubt the most complete Negro moving picture house in the state and was erected at an approximate cost of $75,000.00. The house has a seating capacity of 700,200 of these being placed in a very comfortable and nicely arranged balcony. It is steam heated and has many other conveniences which are to be found in new theatres of today. The beautiful old rose that of the walls is brought out very richly by the soft rays which radiate from eight beautiful dome lights in the ceiling while along the walls are four easy guide lights. The seating arrangement of the house is very convenient and everything is provided for the comfort of the patrons. Easy metal orchestra chairs are provided both down and upstairs, these being fastened on the concrete floor. Fire proof can be applied to the house. For there is but very little, if anything, about the house or fixtures which is inflammable. In fact it has been stated that this house more nearly approaches the fire-proof idea than any theatre in the city. The operator's room is fixed up in the most approved style and reduces the probability of fire to a minimum. The house is equipped with two Powers GB moving picture machines which are capable of throwing most wonderful rays. In addition to these machines, the operator's room has two substitute compensators, a transverter and other devices common to moving picture machine rooms.

Birthday was fittingly celebrated here with the following program: Hynn—Thegrus a Witness. Invocation. Anthem. Theme—The Open Road—Miss M. J. Cooper. Responsive Reading—Congregation Gloria Patra. Scripture reading—By the Pastor DUNBAR THEATRE Atlanta, Ga. News As an aftermath of the row going on in Georgia as to who will be the loses of political patronage under the Harling administration, another angle is seen in the controversy. At the so-called State Central Committee meeting held here on the 21st Goree and Karnes, chairman and vice chairman, respectively, were given an opportunity to resign or be summarily dismissed. Up to this time neither Goree nor Karnes has done so and therein lies the trouble in Republican camps. One of the prominent daily papers carried an article a few days ago in which it was said that one Charles Adamson, a former Pennsylvaniaian who has adopted Georgian as his state and Gelartown as his place of residence, would dispense the Republican plea to those of his liking. This article brought about a storm of protest, it seems, and raised the fire of his lorship, M. H. Karnes. In last Sunday's Constitution, to offset what has been reported about Adamson, Karnes is reported to have said: "Mr. Adamson, of course, is known as a Republican, but his only activities have been confined to his efforts before the Republican National Convention much concerned about helping his friends get a delegation from Georgia at Chicago, June 8, when he was very that would support General Leonard Wood. Since the nomination of Warren G Harding he has never evinced any willingness to help with the affairs of the Republican party in this state, and I have seen a letter from him replying to a request that he assist with affairs in his district, to the effect that he was too busy to help and expected to be out of the state until after the election, which he evidently was, for the first any of the regular organization has heard of him since was when he began the solicitation of funds to help the National Committee make up the deficit that existed after the election." waxed warm as he continued his interview with the Constitution and said further. "The whole report is to be characterized as the opening gun fired by "ple" hunters; job seekers whose lack of capability would naturally exclude them from the conscientious consideration of the regular organization—to secure patronage through a source which would give them aid and comfort rather than oppose them." "Scouting the idea of Adamson having charge of giving out ple and that newspaper report when could possibly be true is the trade vice chairman continued by saying. "The only portion of the report which could possibly be true is the assertion that all appointees in executive and administrative positions shall be white men." Goree and Karges were helped and brought to the fore as leaders of the party in Georgia, against the advice of the true and tried, and dumped upon the party by "Link" Johnson when he was told they would knife him at the moment when he least expects. But he was given his way and the result is known. Thus, in his concluding remarks, the modern Brutus took a paring shot at "Link" and wound up by saying, "The report states Henry Lincoln Johnson will be made minister to Haiti, a job carrying a $10,000,000 salary with the understanding that he resign as National Committee man for Georgia. My position is that, in view of Johnson's many acts of discredit to himself and the party and to antagonize the best people of the South, he will not be offered any position whatever under the Republican administration. Of one thing I am positive and certain, Henry Lincoln Johnson will never be given my endorsement or that of Chairman Goree for any job. My knowledge of the situation leads me to say that the disposition of Republican patronage in Georgia will be in the hands of the regular organization which is headed by Mr. Goree, chairman of the State Central Committee, and that not a single application for a job will be endorsed by this organization which would in any manner offend the sensibility of the locality who will be served by the appointee." With this row going on before the president-elect is inaugurated, there is no telling what the out come will be after he takes his seat. The interview of Karges as to Link Johnson in particular will hardly hold good. Link is so well on the inside with the powers until it is almost a foregone conclusion that he will need no endorsement at the hands of Goree nor Karges and their hand of Illy whites, and it is an even bet that he will be appointed even before these poor white men whom he made politically has any knowledge of it. Workmen are engaged in painting and decorating the auditorium of Bethlehem A. M. E. church. When completed it will be one of the most beautiful in the city. Dr. P. J.

In their engagement to put the issue over, those appointed by the mayor-as leaders, are nursing the Negro voters as a hen would her brood for other purposes and should the bonds pass, the Negro will be told: "We will give you the old worn out rat traps which have RE 1805 as time keeper. Mr. Zenley held co-operative Baptist State Convention, that position for sixteen years. After spoke at the F. A. B. Church on Monday night in the Interest of her work moved to Charleston, Mr. Zenley then Miss Bacou is a splendid speaker and opened a grocery store on the island, which he conducted for the past ten boys in France. She is now trying to years, with credit to himself and the save the girls. been used by white children for more than thirty years or take nothing. The paper in question, has done nothing but mislead those who had little enough sense to believe it as is shown by the action taken at Bethel church Tuesday night when nearly a thousand of our people refused to endorse the bond issue without some guarantee as to what will be done in a most substantial way for Negroes about new schools and particularly a real, modern senior high school which they are entitled to. A resolution which had been unanticipated adopted informing the bond issue that the mayor and council set aside $1,500,000.00 of the fund derived from salts of the bonds for new schools, was immediately dropped when F. M. Inman, chairman of the campaign committee, told the Negroes that such a promise had not been made and the whole statement was an error. The only promise the committee could give was a statement by the mayor in his address was: "There will be justice and fair play in spending the money" which is poor encouragement to more than 60,000 Negroes who are entitled to a large share of the funds if the bonds are put over. In 1010 the citizens of Atlanta voted $5,000,000.00 in bonds out of which the Negroes got one school that cost less than $30,000.00 and now they come asking the same Negroes and more of them to vote an issue of $8,500,000.00 for what? To get the old unsanitary, fire traps to the our children are not entitled to as good as other children even tho they get not as many. Whenever the southern white man wants something good or better than what he already has, and it takes Negro votes to get it, he is sweeter than honey or the honey comb and almost falls on his stomach to the Negro until he accomplishes his aims after which time he tells the Negro to go until he (the white man) needs him again. This injustice to Negro citizens has been going on for fifty years and the negro is so tolerant that each time the white man comes he believes his time will come next and the time never comes. It is the honest belief of the writer that every effort should be put forth to snow the bond issue under with an avalanche of votes March 8th, and let the narrow minded white men of Atlanta realize that they must not overhook the fact that 62,000 Negro citizens are entitled to what they demand, and must have new and modern grammar school buildings, and an up-to-date senior high school to prepare our boys and girls for the high duties of citizenship, as well as to relieve the private colleges and universities in our midst of the embarrassment of being rated as only normal schools Beaufort, S.

We can anticipate many local difficulties, which arise largely from misunderstanding or lack of proper understanding, which this sort of cooperation will correct or prevent; and we are hopeful that our fair city is on the road to preserve its reputation for splendid and earnest co-operation between the races, which reputation has been seriously threatened in the recent past. There is little doubt that many of the minor causes of friction as for example the frequent troubles on streetcars, may be safely and permanently eliminated by the work of this committee; and that in many other lines of activity where the interests of all the people lie together the just and proper solution will be worked out, and the two races may move and work and live together, not only peaceably, but in most enthusiastic and harmonious co-operation and communication. No one disputes the interdependence of the races in our nation; none of the races in our nation; none and justice and protection in all things, the difficulty has come about in getting the thoughtless and arbitrary and advantaged to respect the rights of others. A solution of this obstacle has been long wanting, and we hope we have it in this committee. This observation is not meant to encourage the public, with grievances, to burden or embarrass the committee; on the other hand it is more intended to protect the committee from such fate, by having everybody understand that the committee is capable, is composed of the very best types of men, just and fair and fearless; that they know the common difficulties, and will not about to remedy them, remove the occasion for trouble, and in every way promote harmony and peace. The people will have faith that this is a most conscientious effort, by good men, and that whatever they shall do will be intended for the mutual best interest of the whole people, because founded on right and lassed upon vision and a clear understanding of the situation. SELF-CONTROL OR THE EFFICACY OF PRAYER True to the traditions of our fathers, we are firm believers in the efficacy of prayer; and all our hope and faith for the future in the ultimate triumph of light is basal upon an unwavering confidence in the principles of Christian our time and the established practices of the church. We would not awerse one lot from the tids, worn beliefs and worship which have saved the world, and we could not if we would. And while our faith is unchallenged and our Christianity yet firm and undismayed by the tribulations we bear, we are still unwilling to credit the sparing of the life of the criminal Negro at Pembroke to the ethic of prayer, alone, although we do not question the tremendous influence which prayer and Christianity may have had upon the unfortunate father of the victim of the criminal. We would not detract one lot of honor and distinction due the company of Negro men who, along with the white mob, held a criminal captive and set for his lynching, by attributing their worthy and commendable conduct to other than highest motives of citizenship conduct and a profound and courageous respect for the law. Here was the avenging muddled mob of white men, discovering that the Negro "brute" had assailed a Negro girl instead of a white one, whereupon decided they would not lynch or burn, but would induce the Negro part of the searchers to commit the lynching, thinking perhaps to make capital of a lynching by Negroes. But they reckoned where they knew not; the Negroes hesitated, in spite of the fact that some of them were hot-headed and more or less willing to follow and obey the dictates of the whites; then the more level-headed ones prevailed; and there was no lynching at all; the majesty of the law was upheld; the law was allowed to take its course as was proper. It was a good and fine lesson in self-restraint and law and order and self-control for the mob assembled, although they were doubtless little influenced. It was a fine illustration for the whole state of Georgia, and should be capitalized as such in interest of law and order, and in impressing that the law be allowed to take its course, because it is sufficient to avenge all crimes while still providing the accused with the chance to meet the charges brought against them, to prove their innocence if they are able. Prayer will right many wrongs; it is the best possible succor for the oppressed and powerless, but self-control, re Certainly we cannot take away from these law-abiding Negroes their just commendation and praise for their splendid conduct under most trying passion, when there was present every inducement and aid to add one heinous crime to another, and incidentally to put their own stamp of approval upon the practice of lynch-law and contempt for constituted authority, the very practice by which thousands of Negroes have been slaughtered for trivial offenses in some cases, as innocent victims in others, and always without trial by the courts, which right even the confessed guilty are entitled to enjoy. We honor these men for their respect for law, and the state should see cause to honor them for the noble example which they have so fortune lynchers, night-riders and Ku Klux Klan which infest the state and south, and which are destroying the morals of the people and bringing shame and anarchy upon us. AN UNNECESSARY FLING Editor Sarannah Tribune, Deer Sir: In this city are many Negroes of refined sensibilities who feel insulted by that unnecessary "What Has Become of Cuyler Cooks" article in one of the daily papers issued on Wednesday. For very many reasons, Negroes be lured from the beginning the "Cuyler Cook" was fiction, and they have never thrilled over the Cuyler proposition. They have simply had to accept it. If there were a senior high school for Negroes in these and every other southern city, there would be no danger that Negroes would become over educated. High school education doesn't over educate white boys and girls. If they become better and more useful citizens, Negro boys and girls would become so too. If a Negro girl becomes a good cook and needs to make her living cooking its all right, but why should she be expected to become a cook, because she has studied cooking. Some girls take cooking in order to better prepare the food in their own homes. Indeed, the course in which cooking is a feature emphasizes home making. There are many intelligent Negroes in this city, who have never felt satisfied over the course given their children at Cuyler, and there are many more who feel the injustice of being forced to send their children away from the city, at heavy expenses, in order that they might get the education which the white children get in the public school system. These things have been fully realized all the while, but we have been helped to remedy them. "What Has Become of Cuyler Cooks' was an unnecessary fling at a helpless and almost hopeless people.

A very exciting reading was spent in trying NEW YORK ELEKS Daviscount-Zhyszko Affair February 25th Be Good Bout When Nick Daviscount, the sensational Texan, and Wladek Zhyszko, the Polish giant, get together here on February 25, Savannah fans may prepare themselves to see a rough and ready contest. It will be no pink tea affair. Zhyszko has the reputation of being a rough mat artist. Daviscount has shown he does not mind a little rough play himself. When Hassen, the Turk, met the Texan here recently the rough and ready Turk decided he would live up to his name and get rough. Daviscount won over Hassen in straight falls. The last appearance of Zhyszko here was when he met Charlie Cutler. Cutler was out by the first fall and was unable to return for the second. The Polish giant has agreed to throw the Texan twice within seventy-five minutes. He believes he can and Daviscourt is equally confident he will be able to hold his own. The match is staged under a "winner-take-all" agreement. If Zbyszo makes good his boast he gets the entire purse. If he falls he gets nothing, the purse goes to Daviscourt. The last mat contest at the Auditorium when champion Ed "Strangler" Lewis plumed Tom Drake's sword to the floor, was attended by the largest crowd of colored fans who have ever turned out to a wrestling match in this city and they got their money's worth in action. An equally, as large crowd will be provided for at the match next Friday night and they're going to witness some hair-ruling stunts by these two giants for its a toss-up as to which of them is the superior.

A report of the women's meeting at Memphis to consider race questions was given to the Women's Club in Louisville by members in attendance. The hundred of more white women gathered at Memphis had been deeply stirred by the talks of the four colored women who had been invited to tell them of the needs of Negro women, children and homes from their point of view. "The trouble with us," said a club member, in reporting the conference. "Is that white we have feelings about the Negro we have very little information about him. The conference showed us not only what he is 'dote' for himself, but what he is to. Our way of dealing with him." The need for protection in domestic service and from mobs was cited; for better homes and sanitation; for justice in the courts, in the division of school funds, and in travel. The Ku Klux was denounced, and a plea made to more courteous treatment of color people, especially of colored children by white children. Other club members spoke of the need for present-day contact between the best women of both races if the old-time friendliness and understanding were to be revived. Notice was also given of the spring meeting of the Kuucky inter-racial organization, and the club members were invited to attend.

Scotr SHUIGFF FORGETS TO EXECUTE PRISONER Baton Kunga, La., Feb. 10th (Ay- sociated Negro Press)—Lonhio Eaton, colored man the sheriff forgot to haim- may be dead, legally. Attorney General Coco frankly admitted he didn't know: but reports from Ouacouita parish prison, where Lonhio has been taking in, legally or illegally, his regular "three squares" a day ever since his execution was mislain by Sheriff Grant, February 5 do not indicate that his appetite La- suffered because of his possible de- mise. Sheriff Grant wrote the governor that in the press of civil and criminal matters" he utterly forgot the mandate to put Eaton, convicted of the murder of a white man, to death on that day. The Sheriff didn't know what to do about it. He had no warant to execute his prisoner or all other dry, and asked for instructions. The governor turned the matter on to Attorney General Ceco, who is asking the lawbooks for presidents. It was said the one-in-jeopardy principle of law right prevent any execution. In the meantime, Eaton is physi- ally alive, and the board of judges still has before it an application for demen- er in his case. The attorney general issued a statement declaring that from investigation of the case as a member of the team of patrons he believed that Ethel "should not be burglar." He added that had he known the date of execution had been set he would have called Gov. Parker's attention to a request for reprieve and commutation of sentence made by Sheriff Giant, who had asserted that to hang Eton would be "a travesty on justice."

"We shall press this way but once," and if we can show some kindness to one in need, or comfort, some fellow help, let us do it now that we may have the opportunity of enjoying the news that may be scattered in the pathway of his life and to experience the happiness and satisfaction which proceeds from deeds of kindness unselfishly performed. If we do this we may, indeed, worthily wear the family kin and stand before the world as an upright Mason.—Missouri Preemason. r WHOSE FAULT? We are frequently complaining to cause new members are being taken in who do not manifest a proper interest in Masonry. The fault, dear brothers, is not altogether with the mortar, but much of it rests with ourselves. How many Masons are there who go up to a candidate on the night of his initiation and take him by the hand and express to him words of welcome? When he comes to the lake after being made a Master Mason, how many are there who give him and give him to understand that his presence is an prelated and that the lodge expects to see him on meeting nights? When he is absent from lodge how many are there who when they meet him in the street, comment on his absence and express regret that he was not present? How can you expect to interest man in Masonry if Masons themselves fail to perform their duty? Try the experiment in your own balde and so if you do not hold your new masonry in a closer bank of brotherhood. - No the of St. John's Lodge. NEGRO LITERATURE IN NEGRO SCHOOLS Leading educators of both races in the South are interested in the plan of strengthening racial integrity by teaching Negro children something of the history and achievements of the own race. The main obstacle to such a course has been a lack of books suitable for school children of grammar grades. Harcourt, Braze & Howe be it published a book of this kind—The Upward Path, compiled by Mary White-vington and Myron T. Pritchard, which an introduction by R. K. Motton, of Tweezeger Institute. Fifty Negro authorates represented, with biographies, notes of each. The quality and tone of the selections are excellent; and some of the names stand high with who, lovers of good literature. Dr. Kerlin, secretary of the Virginia Society for the Study of Education, says of the book: "It's use in Negro schools would greatly contribute to the development of that character in the Negro which we of the white race have so often pressed a desire to see. It is to be hoped that state boards of education will take this view of the matter, and will place this reader in the hands of colored school children as a prescribed book. It would be an act of justice as well as of grace that would do much toward promoting interracial goodwill." The North Carolina department of for better school facilities, for better education has put one book of Negro traveling conditions, and for more par- authorhip—Up from Slavery, by Book,ience and self-control, growing out of er T.

Two men had been fast friends. In an evil hour they quarreled, and from violent words they came to dagger-points, but used no daggers. They did not speak, and had not spoken for years. Mutual friends had tried the arts of reconciliation in vain. They were avowed enemies for life. The whole difficulty was purely personal, and the honor of neither was impelled either by the origin of the quarrel or subsequent circumstance. Probably they were equally to blame; possibly not. No matter. One of them became a Mason after the estrangement, and it happened the other remained ignorant of this fact. One evening he, too was admitted into a lodge. Almost the first voice he heard, and certainly the first face he saw, was that of his enemy, who presided over the ceremonies of initiation, and was obliged according to usage to address him by the title of "Brother." This was a most peculiar situation and a severe ordained for both. After the lodge was closed the Apprentice sought the Master, and without any preliminaries the following colony ensued, commenced by the newly made Mason: "Are you a member of this lodge? The reply was: "I am." "Were you present when I was elected?" "I was." "May I ask if you voted?" "I did!" "Now, will you tell me how many votes it requires to reject, in a ballot for admission?" The Master answered, "One." "There was nothing more to say. The initiate extended his hand, which was warmly grappled by the other, and uttered, with thrilling accents, deep emotion mellowing his voice: "Friend! Brother! you have taught me a lesson I shall never forget." This is a little ray of Mascaron light. No language is so elemental as the silent throbbing of a heart full of joyful tears. While this kind of cement is used in our moral education, should it not be tearing? Who can wonder that it is so strong? Missouri Freeman. ideas. White students would find them beyond this racial quality, the broader appeal to the common human basis of all racial life which must be understood before inter-racial pea can be assured. STAGE "INTER RACIAL SUNDAY" The governors of Kentucky Tennessee and Georgia have called upon the ministers of both races in their respective states to observe a designated day as interracial Sunday by preaching an Christian obligations in race relation Kentucky left off with a Sunday in December, when over 1,400 preachers of both races applied scriptural laws present-day relations between white and blacks. In many places Justice services were held in one entire day of our rafa, and large attendance was generally reported. Tennessee's Inter racial Sunday for low ear early in January with similar results; and Georgia, Florida, and Arkansas came next. The other states are preparing for a like observance. In endorsing the call of the Interracial Committee of Georgia Gov. Dorsey said: "I would add my voice to that of the Committee, urging that you should appeal to the constellation of our people for a more even justice in our courts, for better housing and sanitary conditions for better school facilities, for better traveling conditions, and for more patience and self-control, growing out of the spirit of the Christ, in the association of the two races."

The first half was truly Hampton's half, the score at the end being 17 to 7 in Hampton's favor. Howard started the second half with that "come-back spirit" for which she is known. As she cut down Hampton's lead, the great crowd went wild. Hampton was outplayed in the last half, just as Howard had been in the first, not by superior playing, however, but simply by the Howard spirit, that turned what seemed a certain defeat into victory. Hampton's team showed superior passing, but Howard's spirit made up for their lack of it. In the last few minutes of play, with the score 23 to 21 in Hampton's favor, the Howard team put forth its supreme effort. Then amid the wildest cheering and pleading on the part of the students for a victory, the Howard team "delivered the goods" by defeating Hampton by a score of 28 to 23, in one if the greatest games ever played between the two institutions. The spirit on the part of both players and spectators could not have been better. The second game of the series will be played at Hampton Institute on Washington's Birthday.

But the more her words were recalled and pondered the more convinced the students became that they had remembered correctly.

Feb. 16th (11) Associated Negro Press)—Recognized ministers are in protest at the ruling of the railroad clergy bureau recently in limiting their privileges in the way of reduced rate tickets over the various lines and forcing all to submit to stringent regulations in applying for and securing permits for such tickets Colored Ministers' Interdenominational alliance of this city had the matter before the organization. Railroad authorities have ruled that a colored preacher applying for a permit for reduced fare must present some evidence that he is in reality an authorized minister of the gospel and represents some genuine religious organization. This ruling was made because of discovery that numbers of Negro men have been using the calling of a preacher on their own account and using the title of "Reverend," thus self-bestowal, as a means to secure the privileges of gentle ministers when desiring to travel or the railroad. FOR SALE—This is a good plain house on corner lot, on the east side, on car line. Reasonable price and terms.
