Dr. J. W. Sexton Thinks Live Negro Journals One of Our Hopes. Speaks In Glowing Terms of Sumter Attorney. Reads 13 Negro Journals
Spartanburg, S. C., July 24th, 1921.
Mr. J. A. Roach, Editor of The Indicator.
Dear Sir: Enclosed find check for $2.00 to apply to my subscription. I do not know whether I owe you or not as I have never applied business methods to my busy life that counts for anything in an unbusiness way. I never take time to congratulate the man who is making it possible for us all. But by your continual appeal in a christian and gentlemanly way I am forced this morning to lay aside my bread winning time and use the same to give you an expression that reaches my heart's sincere desire which is my highest ideals of a true and worthy man, like you, standing on the highest and lofty peak, looking into the future from its lofty heights viewing and judging the past advents of great nations and those that have passed that way into the great beyond.
I can not but admire you in your beauty and splendor of race cooperation and racial building. No man today is doing more than men like you in your beautiful and unprejudiced Editorial of the rape case of Mr. Thomas, the white man, who raped or attempted to rape a poor defenseless Negro girl. You are to be commended a thousand times for your recommendation of a true and only way to meet justice is by employing such men as our Hon. M. J. Frederick the coming Negro Statesman and Lawyer of South Carolina. I have the utmost confidence in him and know from a professional stand point he can do more in those cases for his race than any other for us. The same applies to such men as yourself and other Negro Editors along with the Hon. M. J. Frederick.
Mr. Editor, let me mention here before I forget, that I saw that dark cloud arise from the Baptist State Convention to drown you with its cloud burst rain. But you were like the truth crushed to earth, rose again and with business-like methods still shine with the sun. Since all others went down with the sun to rise no more, you are still on the job pleading in terms of a true patriotic Journalist for the race cooperation of those who smote you. Long may you live and God bless you. I want you to know deep down in my heart you have my heart's sincere sympathy and congratulations to cheer you on your way.
I admire you from my bleeding heart when think of poor Editor Labon Morgan, who lived from hand to mouth for more than 30 years, trying to establish the Piedmont Indicator, to do that which you are trying to continue with same paper and contending for that greatest need for our people that they can only become a conscientious people by reading its own papers and supporting the same. I can say Labon Morgan's family was destitute and nearly for want of his getting a living out of what he, like you was trying to do for his people and neighbors were cursing him for making such efforts and did not appreciate his life of service. "SUCH A SACRIFICE." No greater service any man has given than Morgan who stuck to this paper till the last breath was gone. Yes, died without clothes to be buried in. Yet he is dead and no one appreciates him. But thanks be to God his widow and three boys still live and his boys are making good. Buster is in Claflin University and one of the bright boys for his age. When his poor mother wants money from the First National Bank of Spartanburg. Mr. A. M. Christburg, the president will at any time upon my request of long years ago, when Morgan was struggling, lend her $50.00 with no visible means of paying back except my name upon the back.
Mr. Editor; this will never be your lot; for in you are greater possibilities, the time is more ripe for a greater harvest. You continue pour out the great truth that you are at the door of high and lowly that are trying to kill you and your paper. I only regret that I did not make you a present of the money I gave to that great Baptist Convention paper that went to bed never to rise again leaving in its wake a claim against the stock holders of $43.00 each. I paid for a share but never received a certificate of share. These great men of ours who made the mistake, like all of us do, should confess to the public that it takes business men like you to head a business enterprise.
Every preacher should in every sermon preached, try to impress upon our people that the greatest need of today is the reading of Negro journals. It is their God given duty to preach racial uplift and cooperation. We will never reach our goal in our racial up-lift till our preachers and teachers teach this race cooperation and race pride or realization of our hopes will never mature.
I read and pay for 13 Negro papers and must say that my hat is off to the two greatest Southern Negro papers in their worth as freedom of the press, namely; The Indicator and the Atlanta Independent. Hurrah for Ben Dayis of Atlanta, and J. A. Roach of Columbia, the two greatest Southern Negro Journalists. May God ever bless you, peace and happiness ever attend your ways is my prayer for you my Dear Mr. Editor.
OUR WOMEN MEET PRESIDENT.
Negro Women's National Republican League Calls At White House.
Washington, D. C., July 20—President Harding today was notified of the completion of plans for holding the First National Republican Convention of Colored Women in Kansas City, Mo., August 22-27, by a committee of the Negro Women's National League, who were received by the President at the White House today.
The committee was headed by Mrs. M. L. Gray, president of the League, who also extended to the President an invitation to attend a session of the convention. In extending the invitation Mrs. Gray said in part, "We want to see our race represented as far as possible in the various departments of the government—men and women of the highest character and ability. We want to unite our women to the end that you will have a Republican Congress next year.
The members of the committee accompanying Mrs. Gray were Miss Essie Jackson, vice president of New Jersey; Mrs. Irving Norris, secretary of Odgen, Utah;

EMPHASIS ON THE WRONG SYLLABLE
Meditations and Wayside Notes.
By Rev. Richard Carroll
During the Baptist Sunday School Convention, Dr. J. P. Garrick made a speech on the Bible. He spoke especially on: "Laying Emphasis on the Wrong syllable and in pronouncing words correctly." I got a moral from this speech.
We are a race, who are a great people for putting the cart before the horse—laying stress on the wrong syllable, or putting the "bridle on the horse" at the wrong end; "for bragging too much on what the race has done or can do." We are a great people for going too far, or do things at the wrong time—for blowing off to much steam. It really takes to much steam to blow our religious and educational whistle any way.
I am a Baptist from principle and try to know the Baptist doctrine, but I get disgusted sometimes when our brethren "blow the whistle" or put the emphasis on the wrong syllable. I asked Gardena, the little four year old daughter of Dr. J. P. Garrick, was she a christian; her answer was "no, I am a Baptist." This was a good answer. That little child put the emphasis where

most of us put it, or the cart before the horse—the shadow before the substance. "What Baptists believe," should be studied by many of our pastors, preachers, believers and church members. Baptism has a place in our denominational career. Let other racials find their places. Some of our other brethren emphasize Methodist, Episcopalian, Presbyterian and Catholic, too much. A woman or man of character is worthy of standing. Let us all learn, that high life is better than high standing.
THIEF GOT $237.
Mr. J. F. Roberts began search for his purse Sunday morning, July 17th, only to find that a robber had entered his home and rid him of it. The purse contained $237. Who ever the robber was evidently well understood where the money was supposed to be as nothing else in the house was moved out of its place.
At a late hour ih the night a next door neighbor heard some one walk up on the back porch with shoes on and come out of the front door without shoes but even at this the neighbor's suspicion was not aroused. And it was not known what the mission of the late traveler was until the search for the purse the next morning ended in vain.
Mr. Roberts being a carpenter and builder, had just completed a building the day before and received payment in full too late to make his deposit in the bank after meeting his pay roll, hence the money was placed in his bank to await the opening of the bank on Monday is why the money was in the house.
AFTERMATH OF THE S. S AND B. Y. P. U. CONVENTION AT SUMTER
WAYSIDE NOTES.
By Rev. Richard Carroll
It was good to be there. I with many others stopped with Rev. and Mrs. J. P. Garrick. Mrs. Garrick did her best to make things comfortable. Among the distinguished visitors, who stayed there were Dr. and Mrs. J. W. Boykin, Dr. and Mrs. H. M. Moore, Mr. and Mrs. Miller of Greer, Rev. William Howard, Miss Janie Brock, Mrs. Mike Watson, Miss Mamie Sumter, Mrs. Richard Carroll and others that I did not know. I know poor Mrs. Garrick is tired out and sick until this day. The entertainment all around was most excellent. Dr. and Mrs. J. J. Starks had more than they could say grace over at Morris College.
I preached the Convention sermon from Jeremiah 5:1. I was a sick man, but did my best, Rev. S. J. Rice, D. D., preached the Educational Sermon. Drs. J. C. White and H. M. Moore presided and made the proceedings pleasant. Dr. D. F. Thompson delivered one of the finest speeches on "The Graded Sunday School," that I have ever heard; he certainly did himself credit. They tell me that Dr. E. R. Roberts, "got there also" on "The Cradle Roll," The Rev. J. P. Garrick, B. D., crowned himself with glory and honor. The singing of the Convention was great and the behavior of the
der, president of the college, showed us the spirit of the Master; he was the meekest man in the bunch. Though Dr. Antisdel had the greatest scholarship. he did not go on display.
The convention unanimously endorsed him as president of Benedict College and expressed themselves as sympathizers and helpers in his five thousand dollar drive. The Rev. J. C. Tobin, D. D., was the finest speaker in the body, The Presiding Elders and visitors of other denominations spoke feelingly and encouragingly of Morris College, Dr. Starks and Negro ownership, They pushed the Baptist brethren up and eluded them somewhat.
There were too many "hot" speeches about Negro ownership; too much race prejudice and Baptist talk. The cart was often before the horse. There was too much stress and emphasis on Baptistism and not enough on character and real religion. There was not enough attention given to the "stranger" in their midst; we were too free to give insults to our visiting brethren, in our eloquent speeches. There was too much stress laid on the wrong syllable and too much boasting of learning. There was Too Much child likeness, play, talk of our equality ("a little learning made us mad") and play to the gallery.
In the absence of the president, Dr. J. C. White made a good presiding officer: He is a good mixer and is not easily provoked. The Rev. William Howard of Darlington, came a little late, but talked enough to show us "where he was at". Dr. Tobin's eyes turned red when he began to "fling his eloquence." Prof. S. L. Finley, Pres. Reed and Mr. John Finley were equal to the occasion.
I was glad to see the brethren treat Dr. Antisdel as well as they did. He is a man, who deserves occasion.

MR. C. C. SPAULDING ADDRESSED MASS MEETING IN INTEREST OF THE VICTORY BANK.
Representative Body of Men and Women Applauded Competent Speaker.
The promoters of The Victory Bank movement, Friday called a mass meeting to further the bank's interest, Friday night. July 22nd, at Sydney Park C. M. E. Church. Mr. I. J. Joseph, presided over the meeting. Mr. C. C. Spaulding, Vice President and Manager of the great North Carolina Mutual Insurance Company of Durham, N. C., was invited to address meeting which he did with dignity and honor frequently bringing laughter and applauses from a representative audience of men and women who are anxious to see The Victory Bank, a much needed institution put over in Columbia.
The strong and helpful message brought by Mr. Spaulding will repay Columbians for having extended the invitation and urging the coming of this man who has wrought so well in the insurance and banking field.
As a result of Mr. Spaulding's message many shares were sold and interest injected into the already interested members of this institution while the banking laws and plans were made so bare to those who were waiting until the institution got down to business before taking shares, that many were converted to the necessity of a bank for and by our people, that they fell in the line of march and subscribed then and there while others are still coming over.
Dr. R. W. Mance, president of Allen University, the educator, pulpiteer, and orator, responded to Mr. Spaulding's timely address as only a Mance could do. Bishop W. D. Chappelle made the closing remarks. Like Dr. Mance, he strongly endorsed Mr. Spaulding's address and bank movement for Columbia.

Headline, "Mississippi Mob Lynches White Man."
Mob spirit is so rampant now that white lynchers have turned on themselves as was the case a few days ago in Mississippi.
Just as we expected, the new past time of daring Uncle Sam by tarring, feathering, sacking, dragging and dumping in the streets, of white men and women is the work of the newly reorganized nefarious Ku Klux Klan, a branch of which is organized in Columbia, and against which not a single protest was entered by the powers that be. Just what has happened in Florida Mississippi and Texas, is likely to happen right here in Columbia.
Just how to hold the Negro down without staying down themselves, is still a problem for the underclass of whites, while the average Negro is least concerned and therefore will not grasp the legitimate means of advancement at his command.
Some people keep so busy attending to other people's business that they don't have time to attend to their own business.
The business and professional men and women of Atlanta, are raising $5,000 with which to entertain the large delegations that will attend the National Negro Business League in that city Aug. 17, 18, 19. This effort alone will give our readers an idea of the value and importance of attending this meeting. And we trust will prompt them to go over and partake of the good things said and done. The indicator assures each and every one that at this gathering they will get new inspiration, new business ideas at first hand.
Now that Hon. J. W. Tolbert, the reconized State Chairman and National Committeeman, has won out in every battle over the many "would like to be Republicans" and has proven himself to be the proper man to shake the plum tree in South Carolina, we may expect old man Tom Miller and all of his kind—the Lilly White crowd—to take a back seat while the true and tried old liners pick up Mr. Tolbert's shake downs
The ending of this fight brings the greatest victory to true republicanism it has been ours yet to witness. The Negroes of South Carolina owe Mr. Tolbert a debt of gratitude, for this victory, which they should not let go unpaid.
This victory makes conditions in South Carolina more hopeful as Mr. Tolbert has his first time to betray the trust of those who have entrusted their greatest interest to keeping.
we understand it, Mr. Tolber will need no dictation as to how volumes should be measured out as will understand conditions in South Carolina and knows his enemies from his friends as well as the enemies and friends of the Grand Old arty. And will hand out the plum, according as their works have do. It now remains to be seen whether or not Mr. Tolbert will make good his pledges or default and get
in the bad graces of his true and tried friends as he is already with those who were lined up but fell by the way. This is an old line Republican administration, but the administration cannot do its full work unless all of its members or officers are full fledged to the party. So we would admonish Mr. Tolbert be careful in considering New Converts many of whom are not converts to the true principals of the party.
Because of the explicit confidence it had in Mr. Tolbert, The Indicator has been one of his ardent supporters, and until he betrays the trust it now has in him, it will still support him.
It is now time Mr. Tolbert to call your men under the plum tree and give a good shake.
***
We are grateful to the many who are expressing to us their great satisfaction with our late editorial policy and the general contents of The Indicator each week. We are especially grateful to our good friend Dr. J. W. Sexton of Spartanburg, a constant reader and firm believer in The Indicator, who was moved to write us such a pleasing article this week. Which article appears on front page. We invite the attention of our readers to this article that they may read what a man of worth and standing in his community has to say about Negro journals and how he backs up his saying with thirteen paid up subscription to Negro papers.
It goes without saying that men like Dr. Sexton with such a large city and country practice in and
around Spartanburg together with his drug store and other business interests, has not one-half the time to read Negro papers that the contract hand, farmer and other laborers, yet to keep abreast the times and to keep in touch with doing of our people he finds it his indispensable buty to subscribe to pay for and actually read a large number of Negro papers. Yet there are scores of men and women right here in Columbia and elsewhere who never see a Negro newspaper and cannot be persuaded to subscribe to them.
There is another class who await the coming of Negro newspapers as eagerly as the neighbors themselves who have enough race pride and honesty to subscribe. These belong to the "beating" class who believe in getting all they can at the expense of the publisher and their neighbors, matters not what the cost to them may be. This is one of the great hinderances to Negro journalism. Like a tub of crabs the poor publisher is trying to make it with all the crabs pulling him back.
There are many Dr. Sextons in South Carolina who believe in and back up The Indicator just as strongly with words and deeds as does he. And were it not for these many Dr. Sextons and the unfailing effort of this humble servant of the people, The Indicator, would have long ago gone the way of the dead after many other papers. But it still lives with more hope than ever, that the long oppressed people it represents will soon more fully realize its real worth and appreciate its service.
We cannot fully express to Dr. Sexton our high appreciation to him for these high expressions of us, of our position on matters pertaining to the advancement of the race along all lines but especially racial co-operation which is so badly neglected. We feel, however, that we are unworthy of these laudable praises, and will only use such to rekindle the hope that we may some day prove ourself worthy by rendering more effective service to a people who will soon realize the great worth, not of the man but the newspaper that will turn to our boys and girls the bright side of the picture in rebuttle to the dark side that is daily turned by the other fellows.

Every colored man and woman in the United States who wants to see barbaric crime of mob murder wiped out in the United States should, as soon as it is announced that the Dyer Antilynching Bill is reported out and is before Congress, telegraph at once to its or her representative asking his support for the Bill. Never before has an anti-lynching bill advanced so far as this one. Largely through the efforts of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored people, whose representatives have appeared at hearings in Washington and conducted correspondence with senators and representatives, there is every prospect that if colored people unite, the bill may become law. This will put the entire federal government behind prosecution of mobists and lynchers. It is now or never for if the present bill is not enacted, such legislation will be set back for years to come.
It is, therefore, not too much to urge that every colored American citizen spend fifty cents or a dollar in telegraphing to Washington in support of this most important measure. It is now up to the colored Americans, themselves. If they want this measure to pass, it is in their power to have it. If they fail to take united and nation-wide action, the responsibility for the failure will rest squarely upon their shoulders. Here is a concrete opportunity for all of us—church

Mr. Jonas Thomas, the big cotton planter of Marlboro county is in the city spending a week with Rev. Richard Carroll. They will probably go to some country place or to Battle Creek, Mich. Mr. Thomas has already spent sometime at Battle Creek. He and Rev. Richard Carroll are both suffering with high blood pressure. Mr. Thomas was thinking of spending a few days at Benedict College Hospital which is under the management of Miss A. A. Nelson. Mrs. Janie Maxwell of Laurens is in the city as the guest of Dr. and Mrs. J. G. Stuart.
It is said that Dr. D. F. Thompson will be a candidate in the election for president of the Baptist State Convention, when it meets in Columbia next November. Dr. J. S. Earle of Spartanburg still has his "hat in the ring" for the same position. Mr. Jonas Thomas worked on his farm last year one hundred twenty mules and made over two thousand bales of cotton. There are no bell weevil in Marlboro county and his prospects are great for this year. His crop consists of long staple seed.
Mr. I. S. Leevy is getting things lined up for the National Business League, which meets in Atlanta, Ga., August 17th. The South Carolina delegation will meet in Augusta, Ga., and will take a sleeper for Atlanta on the 16th. Rev. Richard Carroll had a congested chill last Sunday night. Dr. J. G. Stuart was called in and gave relief. It is said that Dr. J. B. Taylor of Bennetttsville, pastor of the Methodist church, and one of our wealthiest preachers in the State, is looking for a wife in Columbia.
Miss Mae Gardner, Miss Daisy Roach, Mr. A. N. Neal and Mr. R. L. Simmons visited the home of Mr. Simons' parents in Ridgeway last Sunday. They report a pleasant trip. Mrs. Carrie Douglass of Manning has returned home after a successful Summer Normal at Allen University. Mrs. Minnie Byrd of Blairs, passed through the city last week going to the Gethsemane S. S. Convention. She called by our office and left a job of printing for which she has our thanks.
Mrs. Cherry, wife of our true and tried friend, Rev. G. W. Cherry at Ellenton, passed through the city this week on her way back home from Hendersonville N.-C. where she spent several days. She spent a short while in the city with her son, Mr. E. J. Cherry on Walnut St.
Miss Susie Jaggers and Mrs. Eugenia Davis left last Tuesday morning for Asheville, N. C., where they will spend a few weeks.
Mrs. F. Shelton and her little grand-daughter Elaine Owen left last Sunday for a visit to her sons in Chicago. We wish for them a pleasant trip.
Mrs. M. H. Wright of Spartanburg spent several hours in the city last Friday enroute home from Cheraw where she attended the session of the Order of the Eastern Star.
Mrs. Janie Reynolds is spending a few days at Hopkins, her country home.
Mr. I. S. Leevy and Mr. J. H. Jackson visited the Gethsemane S. S. Convention near Blaney last Sunday.
It is requested that all our new subscribers, who subscribed through Rev. Bishop, will be ready to pay up when he calls on you next week.
We now ask all of our advertisers to be prepared to settle your advertising accounts on Monday, the 1st of August when collector calls.
All city subscribers will please be prepared Monday to renew your subscription. We are endeaving to cover the city within the next two weeks. If you will be ready when collectors come around you will save this office a deal of trouble and thereby greatly oblige us.
Numbers of persons who are not subscribers to The Indicator, and seem not inclined to subscribe are still flooding our office with local news. This is not fair to us and we can't afford to publish them. If you want your local news to appear, subscribe to the paper and don't depend on your neighbor's paper. It is not fair to your neighbor neither this office. Mr N. J. Jenkins' the grocer at 601 Assembly St., now gives S. & H. Green Trading Stamps. Mr. Mattison Mack of this city left last Sunday for New York where he goes to spend a few weeks.
We shall be pleased to receive your locals over the telephone.
IN MEMORY OF
Dr. Charles Avery Johnson,
Beloved Son of Rev. and Mrs.
M. G. Johnson,
Who departed this life on 12th,
of July 1920.
By Mrs. Wm. Augustus Allen
[Formerly Miss Clarissa M.
Thompson]
Thy way, O God, are past our ken,
We see the work of Thy dread
Hand
And bow, submissive, to the stroke;
But yet we cannot understand.
Why was he called? Just as he had
Prepared himself for useful life,
The Reaper came, and our dear
Charles
Fell at the opening of the strife.
Why should that active brain be
slain?
Why stilled fore'er that noble
heart?
So many worthless men are spared,
Why should Death aim at Charles
his dart?
Ah, light appears; by faith, I see
It only proves our Father's love
To call us from this vale of tears
To live with Him in bliss above.
This world has charms but what
are they
Compared with those of realms on high?
To those who dwell beyond the sky?
Our loved ones would not change their home;
O, Father, who for two score years Has been a Herald of the Cross. Who, to uplift humanity
Has counted all things else but dross.
O, Mother, whose bright stainless life
Has ever been a force for good,
Whose children show the training which
Develops Manhood, Womanhood
Weep ye no more; our Charles still lives
And with dear Maud and Iva Lee
Will haste to greet you when your time
Has come to cross the narrow sea.
In Heav'n, the saint's eternal hom
Whose beauty man hath ne'er conceived.
All those will meet, who love Him here.
Grand Lodges Donate To Fairwold.
Mr. I. S. Leevy and Hon. P. H. Hydrick, member of the General Assembly appeared before the Grand Lodge Knights of Pythias in the State College Chapel, Orangeburg, Wednesday and presented the Fairwold School to the Grand Lodge. A most excellent presentation of the work was made. Five hundred dollars ($500) was recommended to be given to the school. Mrs. Wilkinson, President of the Fairwold School presented its cause to the Courts of Calanthe. They donated one hundred dollars ($100) to the Shcool.
RESOLUTIONS
From Bethel A. M. E. Church To Wesley M. E.
Whereas, the officers and members of Bethel A. M. Church learn with regret that their pastor was invited by the pastor of Wesley M. E. Church to preach during a week anniversary.
And whereas for some personal difference on the part of some said (Wesley Church) official or officials said meeting was post poned rather than have our pastor serve:
And, whereas we are loyal officers and members of Bethel A. M. E. Church in particular and the great connection in general: Be it resolved, that we the officers and members of Bethel Church in church conference assembled treat the action on part of the officers of this church, (Wesley) an insult not only to our pastor, but the congregation and church in general and we believe in the appointive power of our church which church we love and adore;
Resolved further that we believe in the appointive power of our church and are loyal to the conference appointments and are
