WAS UNSEATED AT ST. LOUIS MEETING Defeated In Contest For Position By White Republican In 1918. Lily Whites Will Again Contest For The Seat Associated Negro Press, Jackson, Miss, April 14.—The Republican State Convention has adjourned after the largest, most representative and enthusiastic convention held in the State since Reconstruction. Out of the eighty-two counties, of the state, eighty were represented by bona fide delegates actually, and physically present, about forty of that number being white men. W. C. Ligon, a white southern Republican was chairman. Georgia C. Granberry was secretary. Eight delegates at large were elected. Perry W. Howard, W. C. Ligon, Chas. Banks, J. A. Toler, S. D. Redmond, J. F. Butler, S. S. Matthews and C. N. Miller, four white men and four colored men; eight alternates, three of whom were white; and thirteen district delegates were elected the day before, four of whom were white men. Major John R. Lynch, former member of the Mississippi Legislature, made a special trip from Chicago to be the honored guest of the Convention. Both Major Lynch and Col. Roscoe Cocking Simmons addressed the Convention at the mass meeting held that night. Perry W. Howard for National Committee. Howard who played an important part in the proceedings was one of the most prominent figures of the Convention and the delegates were unanimously instructed to vote for Howard for National Committee. Both State and District Delegates were given iron clad instructions to vote for Leonard Wood as long as his name is before the Convention. possibilities, there will be a contested in this State and National Committeeman Mukhilah, has called another convention to be held on May 5th. If the contesting state of delegates are named, Perry Howard feels certain of beating them before the National Convention. Major Lynch states that the sentiment among the Mississippi Republicans of all factions is practically unanimous for General Wood. Howard Makes Statement, Mr. Howard makes sent out a statement to Colored Republicans; North, East and West, in which he says: "I was not elected National Committeeman merely by my own people, but I was elected by conventions made up of both colored and white republicans. Notwithstanding this fact, this handful of Lilly Whites will go before the National Committee at Chicago and seek to unseat me because of my racial identity, and the only reason that they hope to use in effort is the fact that they must: "I want to appeal to you to send representatives to see the National Committeeman of your respective character and urge him to send to it that we are given a square deal. I have a delegation of 19 men representative of the best white Republicans and colored Republicans of the State of Mississippi—men of wealth, of character of attunement and other essentials and prerequisites to good citizenship." "I appeal to you to not allow us to be shunted at the hands of those who place color above party and greed for office above justice. We who are toiling and sacrificing here in the southland commit our fate into the hands of you and believe that you will protect us. Was Unseated in St. Louis. The Republican National Committee in midst of February, 1918, bowed to the will of the "Lily, Whiteen" and unseated Howard, who was its only Colored Committeeman. Multihill was elected to Howard's place by a vote of 25 to 22. Several of the leading Colored men in the country went to St. Louis to champion Howard's cause and when he was defeated, swore to keep up the fight.

THE UNIONS OPPOSE COLORED MOTORMEN AND CONDUCTORS (Associate Negro Press.) BOSTON, Mass. April 14—After rejecting by a standing vote, the bill described as "an act to secure equal opportunity to all citizens for employ, ment in the street railway companies," the Senate brought to a roll call, sometimes and passed the bill to a third reading.

To The Public At Large I am taking this method of informing the public that I am still in the work of divine healing and the Lord is blessing my work with wonderful results. I am simply an instrument in the hands of the Lord, and as such I am willing to be used when and wherever the opportunity presents itself. Since there is so much suffering among the people throughout this and other cities, I am fully persuaded that God stands ready as he has at all times to use human agency to heal all manner of disease, as was so clearly demonstrated in our midst recently, by Mr. James Moore Hickson. These are marvelous things wrought in our midst, even before our own eyes, and yet, there are doubling Thomases who will shut their eyes, close their ears and become invulnerable to the teaching of Jesus Christ. While I am engaged in this work, I do not dey the unkind good that is being accomplished by the physicians. They, too are doing much in relieving suffering humanity. Following is the list of those who were treated the past week. Mrs. Laura Liles, 4222 Maffey avenue, rheumatism, better. Mr. Charles Campbell, 4225 Flinney avenue, nerveness, better. Mrs. Gorse, 1215 Ambroise Street (white epilepsy, better at this writing: Miss Minnie Poster, 2107 Division street, symile troubles, Webb Clay, ear trouble: Mrs. Matilda Jordan, 1128 Channing better after a long series, illness: Thomas Brown, 2226 Wash street, dumbbell, Mrs. Smith, mother of Mrs. Matilda Jordan, 1128 N.
