The Forum

THE FORUM Vol. 8, No. 37 SHALL THE SALOONS GOV- ERN THE PEOPLE OR THE PEOPLE THE SALOONS? Screen Ordinance Will Be Great Improvement and Protection To the Youth. The election which has been forced on the people by the saloon interests, to be held Dec. 14th, is an important one because the people are called upon to settle a most vital question: Shall the saloon govern the people or the people the saloons? We say let the people rule. Barber shops have closed on Sundays in obedience to commands. Now the ordinances are fair. The screen ordinance is one of vital importance because it protects your son and daughter and does away with wine rooms, clears the tracks and when a saloon has closed you can see all over the room. The $1,000 license cannot do any harm to anyone; if a man can pay $500 for a saloon, two men can pay $1,000 just as easy. The license for bartenders is an asset for them because it protects them from intrusion and raises the standard of the bartenders' fraternity. The commissioners, Messrs. Davidson, Coe and Spaulding, have no fear of the recall. They are doing their work in earnest and above board. This is no fight to abolish saloons, but merely to regulate them. Every Colored voter should feel it a personal duty to support the ordinance, because we know too well what bad conducted saloons do for the Colored people. If the saloons win this fight the Colored people will again be insulted, maltreated by ignorant and unscrupulous policemen. The commissioners mean to give the Colored people fair and just and proportionate recognition, and if this election goes in favor of the ordinances you will see a change. Let all the Colored people who are looking ahead and desire to save the young people consider these things and prepare to vote for the ordinances. You will find that it will be to your best interest to stay with the best people, that is, the people who stand for the high ideals and moral improvement. There will be a lot of one and five dollar bills floating around just before and on election day, but these same people will join a mob after the election and run you out of the city for all that. We can't afford to go against what is best for the community. We claim that these ordinances, if enforced, will prove an asset even to all decent saloon people. Let the dives go; what good are they? Remember if you vote against the ordinance you vote away your own chances for a peaceful life, where you do not have to dodge robbers and cut throats and mobs. Shall the good people or the bad people have Springfield? The Tuskegee Negro Conference. On Wednesday and Thursday, January 17 and 18, 1912, the twenty-first annual session of the Tuskegee Negro Conference will convene at Tuskegee Institute. Wednesday, the first day, will be devoted to a mass meeting of the Negro people. Thursday, the second day, the annual Workers' Conference will be held. In the call for this conference the statement is made that its purpose is "less to teach than to inspire." The first day will be taken up for the most part with informal reports and personal experience of representative men among the farmer and laboring classes from all over the South. The purpose of these reports is to afford a broad view of actual conditions and of what the people themselves, either as individuals or through their churches and schools, are doing to improve them. The second day will be devoted to a conference of the teachers and others who are engaged in some definite form of work to improve the masses of the colored people. The purpose of the Workers' Conference is to bring the work of the school, the churches and other institutions into closer touch with the practical and every-day life of the people. The principal topic for discussion at the Workers' Conference will be: "How May We Encourage the Practice of Saving Among Negroes?" This subject will be divided into five sub-topics, affording opportunity for a full, free and helpful discussion. Auditor McCullough. Auditor J. S. McCullough, who will likely be a candidate for reelection, has conducted the affairs as state accountant (or book-keeper) for the state of Illinois so satisfactorily that he has, up to now, had comparatively little or no opposition from within his own party ranks. Everything seems to be absolutely agreeable and all records and accounts are correct. He is an old soldier and fought many a hard battle in the Civil war; was with Grant's army that marched through the South "clearing up everything before them." Mr. McCullough is very congenial and a staunch Republican. Mrs. A. W. Williams Dead. Mrs. Rosa B. Williams, wife of Rev. A. W. Williams of Zion Baptist church, died Sunday, Dec. 10, at 4 p. m., after a long illness, undergoing operations and many exerciating pains. Mrs. Williams had been in bad health for several years. Her husband and many relatives and friends survive. She was an indefatigable church worker for home and foreign missions; was quite intellectual and good-spirited. Her funeral was held at Zion church Tuesday, Dec. 12, at 2 p. m., and the remains were taken to Champaign for burial. Requiescat in pace. We offer condolence to the husband and relatives. A Correction. The report in last week's Forum to the effect that Miss Eva Bridges had married one Mr. Green, is erroneous. Miss Bridges is not married. Jas. P. Loomis Dead. Mr. Jas., P. Loomis, turnkey at the county jail, after an illness of several weeks and going through an operation, died Sunday evening, Dec. 10, at his residence, 1421 East Reynolds street. He had a lovely family, wife and three children and many friends. Was well known and 39 years old, a member of C. C. Lodge. K. of P., of this city, which body had charge of the funeral and burial ceremonies. The funeral was held at St. Paul's A. M. E. church Tuesday, Dec. 12, at 2 o'clock, attended largely. The lodge turned out in a body. The floral offerings were many and beautiful. Rev. J. H. Sydes officiated. Interment was made in Oak Ridge cemetery. Those surviving are: His wife, mother, two daughters and one son and one brother. The Forum offers condolences. JACKSONVILLE When in the city, stop with Mrs. M. C. Clark, 429 S. West street. Mr. and Mrs. Ed. Terry are two of Jacksonville's oldest and most revered people. Mr. Terry was a soldier in the Civil war and was at the battle of Ft. Pickens, participating in that fight and others of that region. Miss Susie Lynch left last week for Macon, Mo., where she is attending college. Miss Lynch is very popular in Jacksonville. The Mallory Bros. are two of the race's best representatives in Jacksonville. Formerly on the road in the theatrical circles, they, unlike most of those people, had the great foresight to save their earnings, invest it and now rank among the best business men in the city of Jacksonville, white or colored. A Forum representative visited their apartments on the second floor over their business place a few days ago, and the well heated, lighted and furnished spacious compartments there, decorated with all kinds of musical instruments, from piano to Jew's harp, lend a coloring to the entire situation, savoring of the intelligent and accomplished.

Every voter who is anxious for this city to regain honor and respectability will vote yes. We can not afford to have this town again plunged into a sulking mob. We have seen enough of corruption, caused from saloon domination. To the Colored Voter. Your chances for peace, police protection and some kind of recognition will be made intolerable if you do not help to let the people's chosen representatives govern. There is nothing harmful in any of the ordinances. As a race, the colored people get all of their bad treatment, all the lynchings, etc., right in bad saloons and generally where saloons are run on Sunday or run all night. Look at Springfield in 1908 and Cairo in 1910. Let every sensible man vote yes in all of the squares. You can't afford to vote otherwise. Be wise. The H Num The F Will be Dec. Get your Xn We hope to A Big A grand social was given by the Sunday school at the A. M. E. church Wednesday night. There was a large crowd present and enjoyed themselves. Several excellent selections were rendered by Master Leon Hayden, Misses Cozetta and Vergie Grigsby. Mr. and Mrs. Chas, Estell of Mattoon, Ill., spent Thanksgiving here, the guest of their sister, Mrs. William Estell. Mr. and Mrs. Mitchell entertained a few friends Thanksgiving day. Every one enjoyed themselves. The evening was spent in jokes and music. Refreshments were served. Hours from 8 to 11 p. m. Mrs. Esther Dixon was called to Kansas City, Mo., by the serious illness of her daughter, Mrs. Lizzie Estes. She is reported much improved. Mr. and Mrs. Joseph Burton have moved here from Davenport, Iowa. Mr. Burton is in the employment of Allen & Co., contractors of the new court house. Mr. Burton has been with the company for years. That Mr. and Mrs. Burton are ardent Christians is clearly shown by their effort to enlist in the Christian work, Mr. Burton being appointed one of the stewards to assist Mr. Mitchell, and Mrs. Burton is teaching the childrens' class and accomplishing much. Miss Alice Moore of Urbana, Ill., and Miss Pauline Bell of Kewanee Ill., were visiting friends and relatives in the city Sunday. Mrs. Bell is the granddaughter of Mr. J. W. Mays of Tuscola. Miss Bell is a junior in the Northwestern University at Evanston, Ill. Holiday ber of Forum out about 21st mas ads ready to make this Success Tuscola can boast loudly of a fine Sunday school. Its superintendent, Mrs. Gertrude Mitchell, is still at the helm and is assisted by an excellent corps of teachers, Mr. W. M. Mitchell, Mrs. J. Burton and also a competent secretary, Miss Cozetta Chavous. Mr. and Mrs. B. M. Moore of Chicago have moved to this city. Mr. Moore is a barber and is in the employment of J. W. Mays, the Park street barber. Mr. Mitchell has lately entered his handsome residence on Niles street. A very fine lamp made by the Prescott Lamp Co. with its brilliancy adds a beautiful appearance to the home. Do You Read "The Crisis?"

Mr. Willis Stearles and sister, Miss Edna, of Bloomington, spent Thanksgiving in Lincoln, the guest of their brother, Mr. Jay Stearles. Miss D. Harriett Christburg of Galesburg, spent several days in Lincoln the guest of her aunt, Mrs. Katherine Wilson. Mrs. J. Stewart and son, Mahatha, of Jacksonville, spent Thanksgiving in Lincoln, the guests of Rev. and Mrs. H. Lachey. On Thanksgiving evening the young people of Allen Chapel played to an audience of about 200 people, half of whom were prominent white people of the city. The play was well received, as was evidenced by the frequent applause of the audience. During an intermission Mr. Mahatha Stewart, a violinist of Jacksonville, rendered a solo, accompanied by Miss Mary Deper as pianist, was applauded until he was obliged to respond with an encore. Mr. Stewart is an able violinist, having studied under some of our best teachers. It is hoped that the people of Lincoln will be given another opportunity to hear this young man. --- As evidence of appreciation Mr. and Mrs. Bud Orendoff entertained the Dramatic Club at their residence on East Broadway Friday evening for their splendid work in the rendition of the drama, "Under the Laurels," Thursday evening. After spending the evening at various amusements, at the proper hour a delicious two course luncheon was served, and the club members are still talking about it. Mr. and Mrs. Orendoff are splendid entertainers. They seem to think there is nothing too good for such young people. Mr. Fred Brummell of Decatur spent Sunday in Lincoln visiting with his family. Rev. John Peterson of Beloit, Wis., is spending a few days in Lincoln visiting his sister, Mrs. D. L. McKinney, on West Pekin street. Rev. Peterson is a member of the Iowa Conference. The Sunday services were well attended all day at both churches. The Rev. Mr. Peterson gave a very interesting talk to the Sunday School of Allen Chapel and also preached an able sermon in the evening, both being greatly enjoyed by all who heard him. The B. Y. P. U. of the Second Baptist Church is growing nicely. It is hoped that mothers will take interest and urge their young people to come out and be on time. Sunday being the consecration meeting for the Allen League, there could have been no better topic for the evening than the one discussed, lessons from great lives, "Paul." A paper was read by Miss Duke on lessons from the Apostle Paul. Miss Christburg of 15 cents Per Month Galesburg gave a very interesting short talk on the life of Paul, which was enjoyed by all. Miss. Mattie Fant and Miss Mary Cecil of Mt. Pulaski spent Thanksgiving in Lincoln visiting friends and to witness "Under the Laurels," in the evening. The Screen Removal. A goodly number of people are under the impression that the screen ordinance, if carried, will mean that you can not have any screens in your saloon at all and that people can see a man whenever he goes up to the bar to get a drink, but that is not so. It simply means that when the saloon is closed at 12 o'clock, all screens, blinds, partitions, etc., are to be moved and the place clear so you can see all over the place until the saloon is opened again at 5 o'clock. Saloons are to be closed only five out of the twenty-four hours. Have Beautiful Home. Mr. and Mrs. Fred Hatfield, 1419 East Reynolds street, have a most beautiful two-story home, nicely furnished with modern accommodations. Mr. Jas. Loomis, who sold his property on N.Twelfth street, has also a nice home with like accommodations, at 1421 East Reynolds street. Geo. B. Colby, Attorney at Law. Among the young prominent lawyers before the Sangamon county bar who are taking front rank as practitioners, both in civil and criminal cases, is Geo. B. Colby, who is a native of this county and who has the highest reputation as an attorney. For four years he served as Probate Clerk and gave the best satisfaction. He is a very affable and congenial young man and will treat everybody right. His office is now located in No. 300, Booth building.

EDITORIAL The commissioners have been fair and reasonable; they passed ordinances which, in their opinion, are for the best interest to Springfield; they are not trying to fool the people, but are willing to let the people be the judges. Their opponents have stated their reasons for opposing them through every paper in Springfield. Now let the voters decide the question. There should be no trickery on either side. The Forum favors the ordinances because we believe they are sane and safe and will be an asset in favor of the city's growth. We have no ill feeling towards those who believe otherwise. You may vote for all or a part of the ordinances, but be sure to vote some way. The only Christianity worth while is the spirit that impels a person to do unto others as he would that they should do unto him. We do not care whom you are, nor what your station in life is, if you fail to do this you are not a genuine Christian. Christ taught and exemplified this as a cardinal principle and imperative. Will colored people please stop using "D. D.," "L.L.D." and "Ph. D." after their names except in rare and needed instances? It has become a sounding brass and a tinkling symbol, signifying little. It is an awful thing for a man to have D. D. affixed to his name and get up before an audience and use "is" for "are," "them" for "those" and vice versa. It must be stopped. Did you ever stop to think of the fact that there are not nearly enough of brains in the leadership and especially the ecclesiastical leadership of the race? The Negro seems to be the only race that God called to preach, ignorant.

Stone, Shoe Shinier Washington St. Spring Your experience with bigotry, coercion and intimidation has been of a character so emphatic that you must be opposed to any legislation which has a tendency to rob men of their legitimate rights. Despotism, which proposes to take away from individuals their property without remuneration, robs men of a free right to earn a living without unnecessary handicaps, or prescribes burdens which poor men cannot bear, are dangerous to a free government. Three commissioners—Davidson, Spaulding and Coe—have presented to the people of this city four ordinances which are to be voted upon Thursday, December 14. These ordinances are every one vicious in character and prescribe impossible conditions. One of these ordinances raises the license fee for saloons in the city of Springfield from $500 to $1,000. This ordinance would put at least seventy-five to one hundred saloons, all of them of the small type, owned and conducted by poor men, out of business. Stop a moment and see what this means. Every colored man and all other citizens of this city believe in fair play. There are probably saloon keepers in Springfield who would be glad to have this ordinance passed because it would make it possible for them to make more money. But that is not the point. The city administration should be a just one. The poor man running a saloon is entitled to the same consideration and respect as the rich man. He should not be legislated out of business for the benefit of his more fortunate competitor. If you put one hundred saloon keepers out of business, bankrupting them, you will turn all of those men onto the open labor market, and they, with their employes, will make an army of probably five hundred men out of work. This means disaster in a city the size of Springfield. 60 YEARS' EXPERIENCE PATENTS TRADE MARKS DESIGNS COPYRIGHTs &c.

We trust she will find it a pleasant one. Thanksgiving was a beautiful day and a nice little crowd attended the union services at the Antioch Baptist church, and a large number took dinner and heard the evening concert at the A. M. E. church. Miss Lucile Duke of Lincoln was in the city Tuesday night to see "Princess Moonbeam." Traver hall was packed Tuesday night for "Princess Moonbeam." This play was written by Miss Minnie Kelley and was given for the charity benefit of Maple Leaf Court No. 25. A delightful little 6 o'clock dinner was given Sunday evening, Dec. 3, by the Misses Moore in honor of Prof. Malone and Mr. Cole, traveling agents for the Bible Encyclopedia. About ten young people was in the party. Miss Mabel Johnson left Tuesday for a visit in Indiana. Miss Lena Goins of Lincoln spent several days in Decatur, the guest of Mrs. Claude Goins. Miss Prudence Sheen is on the sick list. The body of Monroe Mozee, who died in Washington, D. C., arrived in the city Saturday evening, Dec. 2, and the funeral was held Sunday from the residence of his sister, Miss Fannie Mozee. The services were conducted by Rev. H. W. Jameson. If the three commissioners are in favor of prohibition, they should be honest enough to say so, instead of taking this course. Another ordinance proposes to make every person occupying the position of bartender, take out a license, for which he has to pay a fee, make an affidavit before a notary public, for which he has to pay and give an unreasonable bond, for which he again has to pay. He can only make a living now and we submit that every workingman in Springfield finds it hard enough to earn the necessities of life without being compelled by these three commissioners to shoulder additional unnecessary burdens. Another ordinance forbids the granting of a license to any saloon within two hundred feet of any school, public or private, or church. If this ordinance passes it will be possible for the Anti-Saloon League and the Prohibitionists to start a kindergarten school or any other kind of a similar fake in an empty store room within two hundred feet of every saloon in Springfield and put all of them out of business. It would also be possible for any religious or fake religious society to hire a hall within two hundred feet of a saloon, thus making it impossible for any saloon within that radius to secure a renewal of license. This proposal is so eminently unfair that no reasonable person can vote for it. Another ordinance provides for the doubling of the penalty now fixed by law for saloons keeping open on Sunday. The present law makes it an offense for keeping open on Sunday. If the commissioners have the desire, they can close every saloon in the city on Sunday, and the proposed ordinance is simply and only an imposition. Every one of these ordinances should be voted down. These ordinances will be presented to the voter in the following Springfield, Illinois, has discovered ure for Asthma and Colds. with this dreaded affliction and patent medicines, she gave up in with various home remedies. dief, she compounded the ingredi- ody and was entirely cured. Henderson Springfield, Illinois. I Wonder— Who is E. G.? If C. W. ever frowns? How the "E. D. and R. H. case" will end? Mr. Editor, please allow me this correction through your paper in reference to the funeral of Miss Lizzie Saunders. The pastor of St. John's A. M. E. church and Mr. and Mrs. Saunders, mother and father of the young woman, agreed on the time and arrangement for the funeral Friday evening, and from then until about 8:30 Saturday evening I was in all preparation to carry out said arrangements, and as to any refusal of the time or service, or demands for compensation, were unthought of, unreasonable and is an absolute falsehood. There was no time until I was given notice about 8:30 p. m. Saturday that the matter was out of my hands, that had Mr. or Mrs. Saunders come or sent for me I would not have yielded to any demand of them. WILLIAM M. COLLINS, Pastor of St. John's A. M. E.
