MOB VIOLENCE IS SWEEPING THE COUNTRY Mayor Hanged, Courthouse Burned, Colored Man Lynched In Omaha, Nebraska. Four Men Put To Death In Alabama. Many Killed And Injured In Serious Fighting In Arkansas RACES CLASH DAILY. ANTI-NEGRO PROPAGANDA BLAMED Omaha. Neb. Sept. 29.—Two persons were killed, a score or more injured and property damaged to the extent of $250,000 as the result of a lynching here last night. William Brown, a colored man, was lynched for an alleged attack upon a white woman. In the effort to take him from the authorities, the mob set fire to the court house and the building was practically destroyed. The mob threw a rope around the neck of Mayor Edward P. Smith and attempted to hang him for trying to stop the outrage. His life was saved by a policeman who cut the rope, but not before the mayor had become unconscious. He was taken to the hospital in a critical condition. The maddened throng secured its victim, hung him to a lamp post, riddled his body with hundreds of bullets and then dragged the remains through the streets. One white man was killed many injured by promiscuous discharging of fire arms. By Associated Negro Press. OMAHA, Neb., Oct. 1.—With the presence of General Leonard Wood, hundreds of regular army soldiers in the city from nearby camps and forts, with hundreds of members of the American Legion sworn in as special deputies, Omaha is again quiet, after its most distressing and disastrous experience. N. A. A. C. P. COMMENDS MAYOR SMITH OF OMAHA. New York, Sept. 29, 1919. Hon. R. F. Smith. Mayor of Omaha, Nebraska. Omaha, Nebraska. National Association for Advancement of Colored people. Hace feeling reached the breaking point by the insidious propaganda of flaming headlines reporting alleged or attempted assaults of Negroes on white women. Since June 11, there have been twenty-one "alleged assaults" and "attempted assaults" reported in the newspapers. These allegations have practically all come from the southwestern part of the city where very few Caucasian people live, and many of them are regarded with utmost suspicion by conservative people. It is true that some of the accusations in this book have been directed against whites. One ignorant Colored man under dureus "confessed and was sentenced to the peasantry." A special guitt of W. William Brown, the Negro who was lynched Sunday, was not proven, and the better element of both Races believe that the law should have been allowed to take its course. Mayor Edward P. Smith, a Democrat in politics, has received hundreds of letters and telegrams of sympathy and praise for his valiant stand against the determination of the mob, which was composed for the most part of mere boys andoodlums. During his term of office, Mayor Smith has shown an unfettered determination to be fair to all people. Scores of Colored returned soldiers have been sworn in as deputy sheriffs and are doing their part in preserving order. There is much nervousness but no panic. The majority of the Colored people in the section where they lived are heavily armed, and say they will not start trouble, but will protect their homes and families at all hazards. Leading business men have urged all citizens to turn in their arms to the authorities, and the military authorities have issued a proclamation stating that all citizens, regardless of color, will be protected if it takes all the armed forces of the section to do so. Leaders have counseled the people to remain indoors until order is restored. Prosecutions are expected to follow swiftly. MISSISSIPPI SENATOR DEFENDS LYNCHINGS. CHICAGO, Oct. 1 — Protests have been made to the Chicago Tribune against the inflammatory headline appearing in its final edition concerning the Omaha riot. Through the United States Senate, the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People issued a statement that there have been forty-three lynchings this year, four white. Since then, up to Tuesday, there have been two additional: Miles Philfer and Robert Grosky, the latter a discharged soldier, five miles from Montgomery, Ala. They were taken from county officials turned lose, told to run, and fired on by twenty-five unmasked men. Senator William E. Borah, in a patriotic speech in the Senate, called attention to the amazing immediate need of drastic action against lynching and mob violence if the country is to be saved from destruction. Senator Williams, of Mississippi, followed Senator Borah, and not only defended the action of the mob in Omaha, but defended lynching, generally that Black clashes all due to be supported on white women by Negroes. To this statement, a prominent Bace leader remarked: "It is a bity for America that such abused felibration is allowed to go unchallenged in the United States Senate. Senator Willigens, sworn to uphold the Constitution, advocated lynch law. He is the unworthy possessor of a senatorial seat secured through the trickery of disfranchisement in a state where two thirds of the population is made up of the Colored people whom he slanders." The Colored people of the country 1. Igers, are showing amazing calming experiences through which the man has never been called upon to The St. Louis Argus - National Association for Advancement of Colored People commends and congratulates you for your courageous attempt to check lawlessness and deeply regrets injuries you suffered. The officers of this association stand ready to cooperate with you is any way possible to put down mob violence. The Association is at present enforcing the bill introduced by Senator Charles Curtis's calling for a Congressional investigation of race riots and lynching. pass. Everywhere that there has been race outbreaks, Fast St. Louis, Atlanta, Longview, Houston. Washington, Chicago, Knoxville and now Omaha, the better element of whites and the better element of Colored people have conferred frankly on the subject and worked out cooperative plans of economic adjustment, in such a way that conditions improve. There is a high hope, however, that public sentiment will soon reach the point where all classes, including hoodlums of both races, will be forced to respect law and order. FOUR COLORED MEN ARE LYNCHED IN ALABAMA MONTGOMERY, Ala., Sept. 20.—John Temple, Negro, who last night shot and fatally wounded Policeman John Barbare and who was wounded by the officer, was shot to death in a hospital early today by a small band-of white men. He was the third Negro to die by lynch law within a period of twelve hours, Miles Philler and Robert Crookey, the latter a discharged soldier, having been shot to death by a mob five miles from the city yesterday afternoon. Still another negro, Bird Astor, who was with Temple when Barbare was shot, was being sought by a possessor and it his capture would result in more mob violence. A fourth Negro, Ben Miller, a former soldier, was shot and wounded early today on a downtown street. He reported 200 white men had attempted to get him into an automobile, and he was shot when he refused to go with them. SENATE TO HAVE A RIOT INVESTIGATION WASHINGTON, Sept. 26.—An investigation by the United States Senate into race riots and lynchings throughout the United States is provided for in a resolution introduced by Senator Charles Curtis of Kansas. It was announced today by the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, 70 Fifth avenue, New York City. The Association unreservedly endorses the resolution and urges every Colored man and woman in the country who desires better relations between the white and Colored races to write to his or her senator, urging action on the resolution. It reads as follows: 66th Congress, 1st Session. 88, Res. 188: In the Senate of the United States, September 22, 1719. Mr. Curtis submitted the following resolution, which was referred to the Committee on the Judiciary: RESOLUTION: Resolved. That the Committee on the Judiciary of the United States Senate be, and it is hereby authorized and directed at as early a date as possible, by subcommittee, to investigate the race riots in the city of Washington, District of Columbia, and other cities in the United States, and to investigate lynchings which have occurred in different parts of the United States, and to ascertain as far as possible the causes for such race riots and lynchings, and report what remedy or remedies should be employed to prevent the recurrence of the same; said subcommittee shall have power to have meetings in any part of the United States, to call and examine witnesses, to examine papers and to take such action as may be necessary to secure the facts. CHARGES ANTI-NEGRO PROPA- GANDA CAUSED NEW YORK, N. Y., Oct. 1—The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, 70 Fifth Ave., today made public a statement charging that a prominent cause of the Omaha riots in which the mayor of the narrowly escaped hanging, was distorted newspaper accounts featuring the word Negro in connection with crime. In many cases, according to the statement, alleged crimes were attributed to Negroes and it was afterwards discovered that the victims could not in any way identify the criminals. To the race riots in Atlanta and in Washington which are directly attributable to newspaper headlines, is now to be added the shame of Omaha, says the statement. "Trouble was foreseen for months. A recent report from our Omaha branch says: "Since the Washington and Chicago plots we are having to fight a propaganda to discredit the Negro in this community. The Daily News, Bee and the World-Herald, our daily papers, persist in placing in glaring headlines every alleged crime to Negroes. Upon investigation we and they have no ground for doing so, as the victims do not in many cases know who their victims are. We are writing the Chamber of Commerce, asking for a conference with the Negroes, the supporter, and such leading citizens as they deem best. We hope in this way to stop some of it, as our requests to the papers have been ignored. "As early as last June the Omana-branch of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People held a meeting, protesting against remarks of the chief of police in which he seemed to hold the entire colored population responsible for the acts of a few zero criminals. At that meeting, the department depriving the tendency of newspapers to size by glaring headlines the race of suspected assailants in cases of crime attributed to colored men." RACE RIOT REPORTED AT ELAINE ARKANAB When The Argus went to press, at noon: Thursday, a race that was reported as being in progress at Elaine, Arkansas. Three white men were reported to have been killed and two wounded on Wednesday: four Negroes and three whites killed, and a number wounded were said to be the Thursday morning casualties. The cause of the trouble seemed to be the killing of a police officer. LANE TABERNACLE BUYS NEW CHURCH Fairfax Avenue Congregation Will Occupy Church at Enlight and Newstead by Next Spring. The officials of Lane Tabernacle C. M. E. Church, under the leadership of their pastor, Rev. N. L. Smith, recently closed a deal for the beautiful church office now occupied by the First United Presbyterian Church congregation at the N. E. corner Enlight and Newstead's avenues. This is a stone structure and has an elegant lawn, which makes it an ideal location. The purchase of this property does not only mark a new epoch in C. M. E. Methodism, but opens up new avenues to the race. It is understood that this deal carries with it the sanction and hearty approval of Bishop. R. A. Carter, the presiding Bishop over this diocese and the Church Extension Board. It is not known definitely when the membership will take charge of their new church home, but it is expected that the occupancy will be some time in the early spring. The present building occupied by the congregation of Lane Tabernacle has been sold to the Mt. Olive Baptist Church No.1 and will be surrounded to them when the church at Enlight and Newstead is taken over.

Says, "If Police Had Investigated, Several Lives Would Have Been Saved." By Associated Negro Press CHATTANOOGA, Tenn., Oct. 1, Maurice F. Mays, the Negro who was plucked from the hands of an angry mob in Knoxville when he was arrested and accused of the murder of Mrs. Gerlie Landsey, a well-known Knoxville woman, made a statement in which he gave a detailed account of his every action from early Saturday evening until the hour of his arrest. He states that he has been persecuted when there was no real evidence against him, and declares that the methods of the Knoxville police employed at his arrest were irregular. Mays states that if the Knoxville police had investigated the crime properly a race riot resulting in seven deaths would have been avoided. As it is, he declares his confidence that he will be cleared when he is taken back to Knoxville for further investigation and trial. Mays is a fair writer, as will be seen. He says, "Officers in the case are somewhat prejudiced against me on account of unoffended reports. One of the officers, Andy White, has cursed me on a former occasion. "I served as a deputy sheriff in my home county and have a recommendation from Sheriff Calloway, commending me on my honorable record as an officer. The case is one of oppression and injustice. Had the officers been honest in their actions, they would have arrested several suspects filling the description and kept the arrests secret. Then they would have allowed the lady in come in a composed condition and pick out the guilty party. As it is, it looks like bad management, based on oppression and prejudice. I think the court will believe me as I am telling the truth, if I die this very moment. "If the case had been handled with justice, a race riot would have been averted and several lives would have been saved." NEW YORK, Act I. The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People today made public a letter received from a colored citizen of Knoxville, Tennessee, requesting bailties and indignities to which colored people in that city were subjected, mafting it necessary for citizens both white and colored to petition Governor Roberts to order white officers removed from that city. The letter is as follows: "Both, white and" Colored citizens protested against the mistreatment of the Colored people by the soldiers, and, as soon as they could get in touch with Governor Roberts petitioned him to take away the soldiers at once. They were ordered from the city early Monday." INVINCIBLE CONCERT COMPANY. The Invincible Concert Company will appear at Union Memorial Church, Pri- frey Street, 25 p. m. Two Musical Wonders of the face are with this company The Japanese Press On Our Race Riots NEW YORK, Oct. 1—The old legal maxim to the effect that he who seeks equity must come into court with clean hands has a parallel in international justice. American prejudice, particularly on the Pacific coast, against the Japanese, gives the Japanese press ample ground for commenting on the racial troubles at our own door. The following excercises from Japanese newspapers throw light on Oriental opinion: and the authorities are trying to prevent serious disturbances by prudential martial law. American statesmen not to mention Mr. Wilson, should fit satisfy the 100,000,000 Negroes Americas, before meddling in the analogy of other countries, on the play of justice and humanity. They discriminate the racial white from black, but confound the logical, white and black, an attempt to dictate to the world Asahi (Osaka): At first the Negroes merely throw stones, but they eventually came to make loopholes in the walls of their houses to shoot through. This shows the great determination of the Negroes, and also leads to the assumption that there must be depressed causes for the present trouble. What an trany that such disturbances should have occurred in the capital of America, the protagonist of the league of national, Most of the American papers fear that if all the Negroes, who amount to over 19 per cent of the whole population of America, should rise in revolt, the consequences will be very serious. Apprehension alone however, does not suffice to remedy the situation. Is it not most urgently necessary to rectify the arrogant attitude of the whites towards not only the black but other colored races? It is pleasant to learn that at a time when racial riots have occurred in Washington the ill-treatment of Negroes by American soldiers raised a question in the French Chamber of Deputies, which has passed a unanimous resolution urging the equality of the treatment of all races. We cannot, but be sympathetic toward this resolution, at a time when the United States Senate has been indulging in senseless twaddle with regard to the affairs of another country. The question of racial equality, originally advocated by Japan, is to be brought forward at the first meeting of the league of nations, to be held in America in October. The racial riots in Washington and the French revolution must be a great warning to America. Maninichi (Oska): The principle of humanity not being executed in the country which professes to vindicate that principle, bloody strife occurred in its capital A. B. Bishop Jannahal A Carter, A. M. D. D. of Atlanta, Ga., presiding bishop of the Fifth Episcopal District of the C. M. E. Church will make his annual visit to Lane Tahmerec C. M. E. Church Sunday, Oct. 16th. This will be the second time the Bishop has appeared before the people of St. Louis since his consecration to high and exalted position in May, 1914. Bishop Carter is a deep thinker, a ripe scholar, a great preacher and an orator of the rank. He will preach at 11 a.m. and speak at 1:45 p.m. The business and professional are especially invited to hear this special sermon at 11 a.m. Dr. N. L. Smith, the pastor, and members are looking forward to having a great day Sunday. A special service in the afternoon at which time the Holy Sacrament will be administered.

Graced March at 12 o'clock Admission 30 cents a couple or 10 cents for ladies without escorts. Joe Davis, manager. and the authorities are trying to prevent serious disturbances by preaching martial law. American statement, not to mention Mr. Wilcoen, should first satisfy the ¥500,000,000 Negroes in America, before meddling in the affairs of other countries, on the plea of justice and humanity. They discriminate the racial white from black, but confound the logical white and black, and attempt to dictate to the world. If they are not crazy, they are foolish. Nichi Nichi (Tokio); Americans have prided themselves on the fact that they do not discriminate, as regards one race against another. The truth is, however, that though Americans speak of no racial discrimination, they are not able to carry their ideal into effect completely. Negroes are legally on the level with whites, and practice the former are being discriminated against in various ways. The clashes between the Negroes and whites in Chicago and other places prove the bankruptcy of the American principle of no racial discrimination. Vomluri (Tokio) After describing at great length the treatment of Negroes in America the "Yomturi" says: Some attribute the fact that Japanese immigrants in America are not treated fairly, because of their rude manners and low standard of living and to the fact that they do not know the language of their adopted land. It is pointed out that the Japanese immigrants cannot be naturalized in America without remaining Japanese in spirit. The Negroes have no fatherland; their forefathers have lived in America, and they are as conversant in English as whites; their manners, and customs are not so different from those of whites as in the case of immigrants from the Orient. The Negroes publish several newspapers, have their own universities, and their civilization has made a notable development. Not they are so much hated by Americans. Those who are interested in the immigration question should share this fact squarely in the face. We should also ascertain what America's principle of justice and humanity really it. It is not known by many St. Louisians that at St. Ferdinand and Pendleton acres, is the most modern, convenient and elaborate dining hall owned by a Negro and open to their accommodation. The Porn Building has recently been decorated by the firm of Massa and Jones. No amount of money has been aparted in making this decoration a market of color and beauty and at no place in the building is it more tastefully alone than in the double dining room. The wall paneling are in all having been first painted on canvases and then glued to the walls of the dining room. One eats here in the most pleasing environments, far above the dust of the streets and the gaze on the curious passer-by, served by young ladies of surpassing neatness and pleasing manners, beautiful landscapes of trees, brooks, lakes, flowers, mountain-birds and cloud screens of every tint and combining in a manner to produce a wondrous blending of color. Mr. Wilfred P. Lewis an experienced caterer is in charge and personally attends to the needs of the patrons of the dining room. There is no attempt here to make food secondary to environment but on the other hand experienced cooks are in charge. The foods is cooked in a way to at once impress you that the management wants you to feel like you are not at a hotel or restaurant but at home, liberal portions are served and the mean permits one to have a wide range in selection. The Missouri Conference which will meet in St. James, A.M., on the 15th, will be largely entertained here and on Sunday not only will the members of the Conference eat here but the public will be served with a Conference Special Dinner." Accommodations for two hundred or more are easily provided and special attention is given private dinner buffet and banquets, you need only call Poro College and order what you want in that line, at no place are prices more reasonable. There is nothing good to eat in this city but what can and will be served at the Poro dining room. The dining room is on the third floor take elevator. This is but one of the special features of the magnificent Poro Building which stands on the corner of St. Ferdingand and Pendleton ave. There are other departments equally as interesting and beneficial to the public. Attorney Goo L. Vaughn, Chairman of the executive committee of the local branch of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, investigated the story printed in the St. Louis Post-Dispatch of September 28th, to the effect that a white girl, named Harris, and living at 2816 Franklin Ave., had been assaulted by two negroes and bound and gagged by them and taken into a gangway at the rear of 2816 Morgan St. Mr Vaughn called on the father of the girl at 2816 Franklin Ave., and got his statement and was shown over the ground which was the scene of the alleged crime. He them got the statements of people in the neighborhood with reference to the matter THE FATHER'S STATEMENT THE FATHER'S STATEMENT. According to the statement of the father, his daughter who is 16 years old, came in and kissed him good night. She had off her shoes and stockings, but said that she was going to the toilet, which is located out in the yard. After she had gone for some minutes, the father's attention to her absence was attracted by the fact that she did not take with her a dog which the family keeps in the rear of the home. He then went to hunt for her and found that the back gate was open and his daughter was no where in sight. He went west in the alley between Morgan and Franklin in search of her and had started for the police when he says he heard a faint cry for help. He got back in the alley and entered a gangway in the rear of the Morgan street address and found his daughter lying on the ground. He pointed out the door from which he had picked her up. Mr. Franklin stated that his daughter told him she entered the closet and shortly thereafter had seen two noggin jumpers over the fence in the ash pit in the lot just west of the ash in which the toilet is located. That she had heard she said, "she's in there." They then came to the closet and ordered her to open the door, threaten to kill her, and screamed. She claims they tied her hands behind her with a handkerchief and gagged her with her half, opened the gate and took her arrows the army in to the gangway and that when they heard her father approaching they throw her on her face and one stood on her neck and the other on her feet, but managed to turn her head and yell for help, whereupon her two assaults died. She claims that one of the men had a scar on his face and that both were negras. Her father demonstrated that his back gate could not be opened from the alley and that the gate to the west of his could be opened from the alley. He also stated that a Negro was sitting on the back steps at the Morgan street address with a lighted torch. He received a dignitary and arrested the colored people at the Morgan street address of shielding the assistants of his daughter. NEIGHBORS SAW WHITE BOW Attorney Vanessa then remembered the people in the neighborhood. Will Person also love of the Morgan street address. Note that he was sitting on the table above of the garden of the house in which the canvass in question leads from the side. That a young white girl came out of the garden and looked up at the garden window. He asked her what she wanted. She did not answer but went back into the garden and about two minutes he heard a voice in the gang was and went into the kitchen and lighted a torch which he kept and started out to love. He noted the noise the states that he got to the foot of the steps and about six feet from the mouth of the canvass he encountered a white boy about 12 or 18 years old who asked him to put out the light and threatened him when he refused to do so. Person demanded of the white boy to know what he was doing in his yard and before an answer could be made someone in the alley called to him, and the white boy ran out of the gate and made his escape up Morgan street. Mrs Person further stated that the girl's mother had stated that one of the men who attacked her daughter was a white man and one was a Negro on discussing the matter with the neighbors. According to the statement of the邻居a the only man involved in the case was a young white man whom they believe the girl knew. No claim is made that the girl was injured and she shows no marks of violence. ANNOUNCEMENT I wish to announce that I am no longer connected with L. S.

Every member is urged to be present on next Sunday to hear plans for dedication. ST. JAMES CHURCH. Although the pastor was greatly disposed Sunday morning he delivered a strong sermon from Acts 1, Chapter 8th verse, theme: "Witnessing the Power." He gave a beautiful description of, that scene centuries ago when Christ was preparing his disciples for His ascension. They were despondent, discouraged and were anxious to know how Christ was going to establish His Kingdom on earth. His answer surprised, but reassured them. Our race is restless and anxious about existing conditions today. We long for citizenship: for equal opportunities for the brotherhood of man. We lack power. The same thing is true of this government; it has no power, no solidity. They profess one thing and practice another. As Christ prepared his disciples for the coming of the Holy Ghost and power, just so will he raise up men and endow them with the gift of the Holy Spirit to accomplish the mission for which he sent and ordained them. The Men's Guild, entertained the ladies Wednesday night. Mr. Gilliam, principal of Lincoln School, was the speaker. He discussed the three most prominent men of the race: "Bubuos, the scholar," "Colonel Young, the soldier"; "Emmett Scott, the statesman."

A standing invitation is extended by the superintendent to all visitors. The R. T. P. U. is making a wonderful progress in the work. ENCOURAGE OUR BUSINESS. (Atlanta, Gas Constitution). "It is obvious, therefore, that it is the duty of the white people to edu- rage the Race in undertakings that seek to give its members broader and better opportunities in business, for those who succeed along these lines become wiser and stronger leaders of their people and are in a better posi- tion to counsel conservatism and combat the evils that stand in the way of the progress of the Negro toward better citizenship." (Springfield, Mass., Union). The lesser nations associated with the great Powers in the war Belgium, Serbia, Greece, even Roumania, who are paved because they did not receive as much consideration in Paris as they anticipated are finding a considerable amount of sympathy coming to them from Berlin. Germany discovera that Japan has good cause for resentment that her equality amongst nations was not recognized at the Peace Conference. Germany has suddenly displayed a spirit of humanitarism, a belief in the principles of self-determination so she sympathizes with discontended Irishmen, discontested Indians, and circularized the Negro soldiers of the United States when in France how Colored people are treated in Germany, compared with some parts of America. And one has not to go far below the surface to discover that a good deal of the trouble between the United States and Mexico, is the consequence of German propaganda in getting under way now to set comrades. There is something more serious in all this than spiteful satisfaction. It is long range planning for the next war. WANTED: NEWSPAPER WORKERS The subject of this appeal has been very carefully thought out. It would not do to use the term "journalist," for that word is too professional and is not sufficiently inclusive. It would not do to use its term "newsman," men, for the job also open to women. The opportunity is not for a dreamer or a shipper, but the time is and NOW, and the Recruiting Stations—newpaper offices—are open for enlistments of able bodied, energetic, optimistic, intelligent NEWS-PAPER WORKERS. In the field of newspaper and magazine work among us, opportunities were never so glittering and inviting. The amazing business success of scores of our periodicals in the last five years, has lifted the pailing from the realm of uncertainty, hard luck and labor of love, to a plane of dignity, prosperity and fortune. There is at week, and there is fond, gross income more than $10,000 per week, and there are dosens whose income is far in excess of $10,000 per year, and the field is getting wider every day. THE NEWSPAPERS OF OUR GROUP HAVE AT LAST COME UNTO THEIR OWN. No line of business, and certainly no other of the professions, holds out a more promising future at this time. There is not a newspaper publisher in the country who could not use one or more additional people of the right kind. The right kind must be those who are willing to start at the bottom, go through all of the grilling, grinding experiences, be honest, and work to the top. The name is more than worth the candle. There is absolutely no limit to the possibilities of success—success is measured only by the capacity of the individual. Through the National Negro Press Association, a plan has been mapped out by which those who desire to acquaint themselves with the mechanical side of the business, may be apprised in the National Baptist Publishing House of Nashville. Dr. R. R. Wright, editor of the Christian Recorder, Philadelphia, has expressed a willingness to take five young people into his office, learn the professional side of the game. "It's a great game if you dog wrenches." Any newspaper editor will "take on" any young man or young woman who has taught and williams, and "mounting fire" is not to sit at the "big deal" ...The president, Mrs. Annie B. Hill, has returned from the National Convention very much pleased with the trip. Many good things are in store for the union and mission circle from the delegates...The pastor, Rev. J. K. Parker, has returned from the National Convention with much inspiration, and is endeavoring to complete his work for September and begin a revival October 7th. Everybody is welcome. Sinners have a standing invitation to attend the revival. Rev. J. K. Parker, pastor; E. D. Beaulord, reporter. and write "editorials." It is a singular fact that nine tenths of the young people with newspaper ambitions, wish to begin by writing editorials, and that, undoubtedly, is the least thing they should think about. It is like a violinist who wishes to begin by playing the classics in music; or a doctor who desires to perform a major operation before finishing his medical course, or an aviator who wishes to make his first flight a trip across the ocean. There is room at the top bud you must work up from the bottom. Circulation in all our newspapers, practically, has jumped from 100 to 200 per cent in the last five years. During the same period advertising patronage has jumped from 50 to 200 per cent. It is a known fact that most of this increase in circulation and advertising has come to the periodicals without any one of them, including the best having been the head of the department of important departments equipped in the highest measure of efficiency, as compared with other lines of business. What might have been done, or what will be done, when our men and women have fitted themselves by careful, and the most modern training for this work is too startling to describe. The face is alive to the mighty needs and power and influence of capably edited newspapers. The people are buying and reading everything that's published, even though in some cases, as worthy as may be the af forts, "it's a shamie to take the money." Young men, young women, those of you with high school, business college, or university training, who are now trying to decide on a life work, get in touch with the editor, and talk the subject over with him. Listen carefully to his words or advice and wisdom, and then decide to become a "newpaper worker." "The harvest is ripe, but the reapers are few." Subscribe for The St. Louis Argus, $1.50 per year.

The committee's report is the most cheerful and rosy description, of conditions ever read, from "railroad accommodations" to "Mississippi's Penal System," almost ideal. The report should be read in full. It closes by saying: "Political and social equality are not promised the Negro. Those who will accept the laws and customs of Mississippi, are fully recommended to return to where security and industrial opportunity are abundantly offered to the deserving Negro." BICHMOND, Va., Sept. 23—Representatives of the Negro Organization Society began their annual speaking tour last week in the interest of the educational and industrial development of the colored people of Virginia. A total of sixteen meetings were held in Prince Edward, Campbell, Nelson, Bluvanna, Faququier, Prince William, Stafford, Spotylvania, Caroline, King William, King and Queen, Essex and Middlesex Counties. Three prominent leaders of the state spoke at each meeting. A preliminary meeting of the speakers was held at Miller's hotel, Richmond, and the first meeting was held simultaneously in three counties on the following day. Various, members of the United States Senate and House of Representatives are manifesting deep concern in the future welfare of the American people, all of them. The Associated Negro Press is prepared to report attributively that important steps will be taken by Congress in a short time in a serious effort to work out the problems of race adjustment. The subject will be approached from an economic rather than a sentimental viewpoint as on this basis, every section of the country, including the South, is greatly concerned at this time. With immigration restricted, and 3,000,000 foreigners clamoring for passports to return to their native land, with strikes shooting up everywhere like sky rockets on 4th of July, the industrial conditions are in an alarming state, conservative thinkers admit. This campaign was the sixth of its kind conducted by this society. During the last five years the people of 35 counties and ten towns have been reached through this means with practical addresses on educational and economic improvement, and from this source leaders in the movement state preparation and enthusiasm that have compelled the efforts of the colored people for the improvement of their institutions. Business advancement in every section by Colored people is most noticeably on the increase, denoting a spirit of understanding and unity never before approached, and a measure of wealth at this time that to many is quite amazing. The principal officers of the society are Allen Washington, president, J. M. Gandy, executive secretary, A. A. Graham, chairman of executive committee, T. C. Erwin and T. C. Walker field secretaries. The efforts of Southern employers to induce Negro workers to return South, has attracted wide attention. The report of a committee which made an investigation of conditions in Mississippi, has been read with interest. This committee was composed of two Colored and one white man, and made a trip after a conference with officials of the Chicago Association of Commerce. The Colored people of Chicago regard, the "investigation as a shewed effort of white Northern capitalists who have interests in the South and are in great need of labor to get Race publications have taken mastery lead in moulding public opinion and distributing news, and their products are being read not only by hundreds of thousands within the Race, but by thousands of whites. Daily newspapers and magazines are giving most unusual space to news and editorial opinion on matters affecting Colored people throughout the world. A new era of Racial progress has dawned and is moving with marvelous rapidity. Cut this out. KHIRON THE GREAT GENUINE SPIRIT MEDIUM Best Beyond Question VERY BEST READINGS 50c BRING THIS ADV. 62 Ed.

This set of players surely have the edge when it comes to dispensing humor. The chorus, has been enlarged and the many songs and dances by the girls are neatly and artistically done. There are a number of comedy situations in which Byrd and Tally keep the crowd laughing. The playlet attached to the program is a domestic comedy drama arranged, as usual, around the fatthlessness of one of a married couple. This time it is the woman. Of course, she is "turned up" by the houseman and her troubles are many. There's the inevitable distribution, in which the married parents-in-law, from the country, come into their own. One conspicuous feature in the playlet is the acting of LeRoy. This performer is an artist with the versatile ability to portray most any character role of a serious nature. This week as the wronged husband, he is making a very creditable showing and wins the appreciation of the audience. The entire program is entertaining and the performers are rewarded with much applause. Owing to a change in the routing of acts, due to the failure of the Joe Bright Company to reach St. Louis in time to fill a two-week engagement beginning last Monday, the bill for the Booker Washington for next week had not been completed when the Argus went to press. The patrons can feel assured of a star selection, however. The African Veiled Prophet promises to visit the theater sometime during Tuesday evening. JACK JOHNSON KNOCKS OUT CUTLER, IN MEXICO MEXICO CITY, Sunday, Sept. 28.

"DADDY LONG LEGS AT THE JEST-A-MERE THEATRE Mary Blickford, in "Daddy Long Legs" will be shown at the Jest-A-Mere Theatre this Sunday and Monday. The story is of a child who has been thrown upon the world a few hours after birth by her unknown parents. She is found a woe pathetic bundle in an ash can by a policeman, taken to an orphan asylum and given a name from a telephone book. This picture is filled with the most delicate and artistic imagery throughout, and is one of the truly big successes of the film world. By comparing the orphan and the rich child it is an exquisite symbolism and teaches a moral lesson for old and young.

La., Sept. 25.—"Remain in the South where the white people are your best friends, pay no attention to the vapors of irresponsible agitators and dispel from your minds all ideas of social equality," was the advice given the Negroes of Alexandria by Milton S. Hampton, editor of The Negro Advance of New Orleans, who addressed an audience of Negroes at the Union Baptist Church in this city. Hampton has just returned from Chicago, here he had studied Race conditions. He cautioned his readers not to follow the advice of agitators or agitating sheets; to remain in the South assuring them they would get along right. He also told them that they earn what they are entitled to, and they will get it, and to do all they can for the improvement of conditions. Rev. P. P. Hampton M. leader among his Race, of Forlery Ark., advised the members of his Race to steer clear of the "Bugabo" of social equality. WELL STRUGGLE TIL DEATH By Tom Harris Oh God, have they forgotten the deeds our noble blacks have done? Let's not forget there another battle to be fought and won. Are determined now to fight for honor and liberty. We'll struggle until death, ceases our efforts. To batter down those strong discriminating forts. Never relinquish until God ceases our breath. We'll strive—struggle until death. An everlasting fight for a genuine democracy. Twas our stalwart men that volunteered to try They didn't fatter to meet death upon the battlefield They went as conquerors, determine to make foes fall For they had forsaken their all and all They cared not at the hands of grim death made them fall. And even as our wounded fell, they fought on and fought well— These heroic deeds we often hear them tell. Well fight the same way now for recognition God, our Creator knows no nation. We've accomplished our hard fought victorious tasks. We are determined to fight this case to our very last. We've borne numberless insults—also abuse In this fight for freedom there'll be no truce O God have we done those noble deeds for naught! For our brave died, so this lesson could be taught. We've been dogged, deprived of justice and right. It's our heavenly teachings that make us strive with all our might. Ah, the wheel of fate is turning—turning very fast. The Negro-haters know not when will be their last. Let's mass ourselves together, to make this great attack. Show them what we can do, as children of the black. God has created us the same as everyone. We know our Heavenly Father's will will be done. In history's pages, our deeds have been recorded in letters bold. A greater honor awaits us, though for He above. Will not let our noble deeds remain untold. A. RESULTS. French System of Hair and Beauty Culture.

More than 4000 heard Dean William Pickens, a graduate of Yale and now dean of Morgan College, Baltimore, state that the denial of state aid to the hospital "was done as a direct challenge to the manhood and self-respect of the Negro. They concurred in the sentiment with loud applause. In the absence of Col. Franklin A. Denison, advertised to be the chief speaker of the program, the crowd came forward, enthusiastically with contributions toward the $50,000 which is being raised. It was estimated that between $5000 and $6000 was given at the meeting to add to the $10,000 already given The name, Edwin H. Vare, led the list of contributions announced with a contribution of $500. It was greeted with much applause. The meeting followed a parade of two companies of the home defense. They saluted the staff of the hospital in a ceremony which took place before the theatre and filed into the assembly. The Rev. Alexander Hamam, pastor of the Big Wesley Church, opened the program with an invocation. Then followed a baritone solo by Alfred H. Johnson of the Cheyne Institute; a selection by the band and a speech by Bishop J. S. Caldwell. A letter from Colonel Denison stated that "the aftermath of the recent race riots and the threatened recurrence of these riots, make it impossible for me to leave the city at this time." He is assistant attorney general of Illinois, and is advertised, as "the highest Colored officer to see over sun service." Prior to the introduction of the chief speaker, appeals were made for contributions. Bishop Left J. Cooper presided and called upon the audience to "vote for the white men who give the black men a square deal and put the black men on the ballot." His statement was cheered. EPISCOPAL CHURCH WILL CONTRIBUTE TO NEGRO EDUCATION BOLLINGTON, VL, Sept. 24. An appeal for resubmitted effort in the education and training of the Negro has been issued in connection with the Nation wide campaign of the Episcopal Church. In a special report to the managers of the campaign, Rev. Dr. Robert W Patton, himself, a Southern man, and special representative of the American Church, Institute for Negroes, as well as National Director of the Nation wide Campaign, says frankly. The great war has awakened the racial consciousness of the Negro as no other event in the history of the Huey. Their appeal today, and it is a growing and insistent appeal, is that we give them a chance through education and character training, in the schools under the Church's direction, to prove themselves worthy of their citizenship and of their inheritance as sons and daughters of the living God. They have purchased the right by their sacrifice of labor, of treasure and of blood. Will we refuse to pay the debt? Accordingly, in the mobilization of the resources of the Episcopal Church preparatory to embarking upon a campaign for after the war service, it is announced that the programme of the Nation wide as well as the Every Name Campaign, which is the control of the Diocese of New York to the movement, will embody enlarged and intensive plans for work among the Negro population. An idea of the nature of the work that is being done by the Church thru its institute for Negroes is given in Dr. Patton's statement that scattered thru the South, are eight well equipped schools though all of them are capable of great improvement in which Negro boys and girls are being trained not only in Christian character and the regular grammar and high school features, but in special courses in the trades and industries, such as carpentry, massonry, printing, nursing, agriculture, cooking, dressmaking, etc. THE SOCIAL UNREST CHIAGO, Sept. 25 A careful survey this week by the Associated Negro Press, of conditions throughout the country discloses a continued state of anxiety and unrest. The effects of the recent riot have not died out, in so far as the certainty of the future is concerned. Conditions are practically formed in Chicago, and all people are going about their business as usual, with a feeling of ease, but every large city where there has not yet been a riot is frankly on the "unvious path, hoping against hope that trouble will not occur, but fearing it might any moment. Chicago has lost thousands of usual Summer visitors, and hundreds of thousands of dollars in money, because of fear for safety in coming here, but this feeling of fear has been exaggerated, it is now understood, and visitors are coming to Chicago in large numbers. The Boston police strike has been everywhere watched with the greatest concern, and its effects upon the body politic. The great danger of such a strike, and its resultant riot and anarchy, has stirred President Wilson, Congress and leading thinkers to action, when trace evidence have seemingly been ignored. The danger of organized labor becoming more powerful than the government itself is very apparent and the colored people of the country are frankly on the side of law and order, and are related over the fact that something has poured into force putting on the growing disrespect for justice, law and order.
