A $321.22 RALLY.
THE BIGGEST RALLY IN THE HISTORY. OF THE COL- ORED PEOPLE OF SEDALIA.
Held at Taylor Chapel M. E.
Church, Sunday, October 25
—Twelve Deserving Captains Lead Their
Armies to
Victory
The work of the valiant workers of Taylor Chapel M. E. church last Sunday will stand in the history as a premium for raising money in a short time, for years. Rev. Richard Davis, the excellent and able leader of this flock of Christian workers, began this battle of a new church rally about three weeks ago last Sunday, and in so doing, he named twelve captains, who were to organize their armies and battle to raise the largest sum for this rally day, last Sunday. The tight began early—without delay—and the town was haunted from one end to the other by these captains and their workers. Socials, suppers, concerts, entertainments and prizes were given during this battle, and also trolley parties—everything that was honorable was done by these workers to raise the money. All last
Agric
Sunday each captain and their secretaries were busy collecting in their donations until the winding up that night, and after each had reported the results of her battle, the grand total was over three hundred dollars. The following are the names of the captains and the actual amount paid to the board of trustees for the new church:
Mrs. Rev. R. Davis..... $57.49
Mrs. Rev. Densmore..... 35.00
Mrs. Maude Travis..... 33.05
Rev. R. Davis..... 31.14
Mrs. M. B. Smith..... 29.95
Mrs. Rev. Bishop..... 26.11
Mrs. Florence Cadwill..... 24.30
Mrs. W. H. Carter..... 23.35
Mrs. Julia Nelson..... 18.52
Mrs. Anna Wright..... 16.28
Mrs. A. G. Wheeler..... 15.00
Mrs. T. P. Moffette..... 13.01
Cash received ..... $322.22
Which is the largest sum ever
raised in Taylor Chapel or any
other church among the colored
people of Sedalia for years
The church was filled with the many friends who were anxious to hear of the results, and when the total was announced, the audience burst forth with many cheers for such a victory lead by

MORGAN STREET BAP
TIST CHURCH FAIR.
The Blue Ribbon Club of the Morgan Street Baptist church, under the careful management of Mrs. Rev. Mack, Mrs. Anna Hurdle and Mrs. Lillie Kenney, held a very successful fair all week. The church was beautifully decorated in every department and an excellent program was rendered each night.
Thursday night was the banner night, which consisted of an address by Ex-Mayor P. D. Hastain, followed by Jno. Ramsey, president of the literary society. A solo was then rendered by Miss Emma Drake, followed by recitations by Mrs. Kinney and Lady Kinney. Afterwards the drill of a number of small girls in robes was had, under the management of Mrs. Kinney. These little girls made an excellent showing and gave much credit to the church, themselves and their instructor, and was well worthy of a larger audience. The Queen City band ren-
culture bui
derd a short musical concert every night, which added greatly to the affair. This FAIR has been continued until Monday night on account of the rainy weather.

]/ If our leaders of our city are so
opposed to a Central Missouri
League, they ought not to be op—
posed toa league or club in the
city of Sedalia.
\ If you want to see Old Missouri
inthe Republican colums once,
come and less organize the Negro
30,000 votes will make a big differ
ence next year.
It’s sometimes good to change
your opionin, is’nt it brother.
The Negro voters has an import
ant part to play inthe next cam-
paign, beginning with our local
city affairs and concluding with
state and national election, The
question now is, what are Sedalia
Negroes and the Negro voters of
Central Missouri doing to prepare
themselves for the fight, so as to
be able to make themselve felt and
to benefit themselves as a race.
Other cities like St Louis. Kan-
sas City and St Joseph has Negro
clubs and leagues organized, and
are working for success of the re-
publican party and the Negro’s in-
est in their city. Why can’t old
Sedalia with her hundreds ot Ne-
groes fall in and organize. Yes,
why cant the thousands of Negro
voters of Central Missouri organ-
d pane togethee, and dc
their duty for the suecess of Koos
yelt, Bothwell and their race.
We cannot hope to do much
good for our race in politics ff we
wait until the last day in March to
do our work, nor can we do much
to help our frieends, we must be
organized and in perfect harmony
order to be felt or to do go ¢
for ourslves or our friends. The
time for the Sedalia Negro to or-
ganize is now! and let do so and
able to do ourselves credit in the
coming big fight.
