A-1 Candidates Named For April Election
VOL. 6
NOTHING BUT DEMOCRATIC
SUCCESS AT THE POLLS IN
APRIL WILL SATISFY THE
PEOPLE OF TULS.
Democrats Will Launch a Vigorous Fight to Oust Republicans From City Hall.
That the democrats of Tulsa are determined to dethrone the gang at the city hall in the spring election no one can doubt who attended the mass meeting held in the district court room Monday night.
It was a meeting void of mudslinging personalities, but fraugh with a spirit of quiet determination such as precedes all storms. It was evident from the sentiment of the meeting that the present city administration will go out for good when the votes are counted after the election in April. The committee appointed at a previous meeting of the Young Men's Democratic club to name candidates for the democratic ticket and to report at this meeting should be commended by all good citizens for its very good work in selecting high class men to make up the democratic ticket. The report of this committee also anticipated the move on the part of a few "wishawasha" politicians to put out a "non-partisan ticket in the hope of forestalling the democratic victory which they know is sure to come. The report in full follows:
Resolution adopted called attention to the fact that Tulsa is on the threshold of its greatest era of development and building activity and that competent, clean, efficient men must be nominated an delected to office this spring. Following is the report of the committee which was adopted unanimously:
"Mr. Chairman and Gentlemen of the Convention:
"We, the committee, appointed by your chairman to recommend to this meeting the names of men suitable to become candidates of the Democratic party in the coming election, do most respectfully beg leave to report as follows:
"First: The committee is of the opinion that the city of Tulsa is on the threshold of a great era of prosperity and progress; that the business men and the great business enterprises are now investing, and will, during the coming administration, invest hundreds of thousands of dollars in this city, thereby employing thousands of l rainobnem in,—— Los sands of laboung men; that in the selection of a Democratic ticket, to represent our party in the coming election, it should be our duty to endeavor to suggest the names of men who have business experience and ability, and who have confidence and hearty support of all legitimate business enterprises, as well as the labor element of our city and community, and men who will endeavor to promote the welfare and progress of all our people. Non-Partisan Ticket.
"Second: The committee learned of a movement on the part of some of our citizens to form an agreement with the Republican party whereby a non-partisan ticket might be selected, thereby avoiding the partisan strife incident to an election at this time of trial throughout our nation.
"Your committee gave every possible consideration to this movement but it is of the opinion that such an agreement is absolutely impossible of realization for many good reasons. Those who favored such a ticket were, doubtless in the opinion of the committee, impelled by the most high, most worthy and most patriotic impulses, and deserve the commendation of all good men.
"Some of the reasons why a non-partisan ticket is impossible are suggested:
WEEKLY MAIL EDITION
TULSA, OKLA..SATURDAY, MARCH 2, 1918
"First: There is no provision of law whereby such an agreement could be made, adhered to, or enforced, either in the statutes of the state or other enactment.
"Second: Such a ticket is against the fundamental principles of the democratic party, which believes in a primary, where the people express their own free will in such matters.
"Third: At this particular time in the history of our nation we are engaged in the greatest war of history, and it is necessary, if we are to survive, as a great independent nation; if we are to make the world safe for democracy, that our national administration receive every possible support from the various municipalities of this nation, and we believe that the city officials of Tulsa from the top of the ticket to the bottom should be composed of men who are of unimpeachable integrity, and men who believe in the great democratic principles of Thomas Jefferson, and who are ready to use all of their power to co-operate with our great president. Woodrow Wilson, the commander-in-chief of the American armies, to the end that the war may be waged the most effectively.
"We therefore recommend that the democratic party nominate a full party ticket in the coming election.
"Third: In keeping with the high and lofty sentiments expressed at a meeting of this league, when this committee was appointed, it has been our endeavor to select the kind of men suggested at that time, and after much consideration, we have finally agreed upon the following named men, whom we think should be urged to become the candidate of the democratic party for the offices named, from which the people at the regular primary election will make their choice:
First ward: J. A. Waldrep, R. E. Curran.
Second ward: W. E. Rhode, M. J. Glass, C. W. Kingsbury,, N. J. Gubser, George B. Johnson.
Third ward: J. E. Wade, Dan J. Davidson, L. J. F. Rooney.
Fourth ward: Fred G. Shaw, M. J. McNulty, jr., G. B. Stotts, O. L. Gent, L. E. Nichols, C. T. Bumgarner, Dan Hunt.
Auditor: Randolph House, Leo Quinn, Roy Garbett, M. O. DeVinna, Fred Kitchen.
Mayor: N. R. Graham, D. F. Connolly, C. H. Hubbard, Geo. E. Black, Judge G. E. Warren.
"The above men are all splendid democrats, and men of wide business experience, and if a ticket is nominated frim the foregoing list, it will be elected by an overwhelming majority at the election.
"Urged to Remain Loyal.
"Fourth: We take this opportunity to urge upon the democracy of Tulsa the importance of the coming city election and appeal to every loyal democrat to lay aside any prejudices he may have had in the past for the good of the ticket, to the end that the militant democracy of this city may again control the destinies of a greater Tulsa, we take this occasion to suggest the selection of a central committee at an early date that a full ticket may be nominated at the primary election, and that the interests of our party may be properly cared for in the coming primary.
"In conclusion, we take pleasure in congratulating our party upon the magnificent record made by our noble president, Woodrow Wilson, by our governor, R. L. Williams, and the county administration in Tulsa county.
Respectfully submitted,
"M. S. BLASSINGAME, Chmn.
"ROBERT E. ADAMS, Sec.,
"R. E. LOZIER,
"S. R. LEWIS,
"W. T. BRADY,
"H. C. JACOBUS,
"G. E. WARREN."
Rousing and old-time democratic speeches were made by such party warriors as R. F. Morley, Judge J. E. Lyddecker, State Auditor E. B. Howard, Judge F. E. Riddle, Pat Maloy, G. E. Warren, W. T. Brady, R. E. Berger, Lee Kunsman, Lee Fitzhugh, Dan J. Davisson and T. C. Hughes.
Judge Lee Daniel, president of the Young Men's Democratic club, was chosen chairman of the meeting. C. W. George was elected secretary.
All speakers heartily endorsed the men selected as candidates in the party primary and the work of the committee was strongly commended.
HEAD OF BLACK PRINTING CO
DEAD.
C. F. Nearman, head of the Black Printing Company of this city, died at one of the local hospitals last Saturday after an illness of several weeks. He was well known in Tulsa where during his eight years residence he had made many friends. The body was shipped Tuesday morning to Stillwater, Okla., where he was formerly editor of a newspaper and postmaster. He came to Tulsa eight years ago and bought the Black Printing Co. three years later. He was a big investor in Tulsa real estate and was a good booster for the town. Two sons and two daughters survive him. The business which has been conducted by his children almost exclusively for the past year will continue in the same location.
RAGSDALE BUYS INVALID
WAGON.
H. W. Ragsdale of the Home Undertaking Co. No. 2 with his fartner, Wm. Ragsdale of Home Undertaking Co. No. 1, at Muskogee, has purchased a fine invalid ambulance, the only one in the state owned by colored undertakers. It has not yet been decided whether it will be used here or at Muskogee.
NO MONEY FOR COLORED HOME GUARD COMPANY
However, County Council of Defense Promises Relief.
Capt. T. D. Jackson of Home Guard Company No. 2 had a conference with the chairman of the Council of Defense Board this week and ascertained that there is no money available with which to buy uniforms and guns for the colored company, but that efforts would be made in the near future to get money for same. In the meantime, the company will be expected to observe their oaths and respond to roll calls as often as required by officers of the company.
The next meeting of H Company No. 2 will be announced in the Star next week.

Rent Allowed Plaintiff Amounts to
$192.00.
A jury in the superior court Thursday rendered a verdict in favor of Mrs. A. F. Adams, plaintiff in a suit against Rev. E. N. Bryant, to recover a lot in Fairview addition which Rev. Bryant claimed was sold to him. The jury decided the deed held by the preacher was a mortgage and allowed the plaintiff full title to the lot and rent from last November, amounting to $192.00. Rev. Bryant has built a cement house on the lot since the suit was filed and is now conducting a stu in the building. I. H. Spears
represented the plaintiff.
W. H. Beasley, who spent several months in Tulsa, a part of which time he spent in the home of H. J. Carver, died at the home of his parents in Little Rock, Ark., Feb. 16. He was a victim of "death's greatest harvester," tuberculosis. Mr. Beasley was an A. B. Aluminus of Philander Smith College. His father is a prominent A. M. E. minister.
NEGRO AMERICAN ALLIANCE
WARNS AGAINST FALSE
OPTIMISM.
"Face Facts Squarely and Use Common Sense," Says Secretary General.
"The American Negro needs to exercise extreme caution lest he be swept away on a wave of false optimism," says Floyd Delos Francis, secretary general of the Negro American Alliance.
In a statement which the Alliance is sending out from its national headquarters, the secretary general continues: "It is well to be optimistic and look on the bright side of things, but there is a danger mark that must be carefully avoided. At the present time there is much machine-made opinion finding its way into the public print. The Negro is being assured that all is well. There is much talk about what he has done in the past and how he can be depended upon in the future. He is being lauded as an American citizen who always rises equal to the emergency. While being filled with enthusiasm by hired enthusiasts it is well for him to pause, face the facts squarely and use his common sense.
"We are at war with Austria, yet Austrian alien enemies have more privileges than Negro soldiers in uniform. The fact is that democracy is being made a farce and mockery right here in America. It is time for the Negro to cease fooling himself or when the war is over he will be lost." The Negro American Alliance is teaching the race to think. This fine organizatin has issued a pamphlet that every Negro should read. It is entitled: "The Negro American Alliance; Its Principles, Purposes and Aims." It will be mailed anywhere on receipt of 20 cents. Address the Negro American Alliance, Suite 24, Atlantic Insurance Building, Atlantic City, N. J.

BUSINESS LEAGUE BOOSTERS
NUMBER TWO.
By Albon L. Holsey
"It is the Colored press today in whose hand reposes the sceptre of larger influence and greater power for racial betterment. The more liberal the race is in its patronage of the Colored press, the more power will it wield for good," says Editor Forte of the Cleveland (Ohio) Advocate, which reminds us of the magnificent tribute paid to the Negro press by the late Dr. Booker T. Washington. In his last annual address before the National Negro Business League at Boston, Mass., in August, 1915, Dr. Washington said:
"This organization could not have been kept alive from year to year without the hearty co-operation of another hard-working and deserving element of our race that most of our people know too little about. I refer to the deep debt of gratitude we owe to the Negro Press of this country. There is no set of people who are contributing more generously, even out of their poverty, toward the uplift of our race than is true of the owners and editors of the Negro newspapers of this country, and I say this notwithstanding the fact that now and again there are those who do not altogether agree with me."
Therefore, the writer of this series will be pardoned for repeating now a statement which he made sometime ago regarding the Negro press and which is most appropriate in this connection. The statement was in part as follows:
"No less than a dozen of these papers take their turn each week and speak editorially to the race, urging them to patronize the members of the race who are in business. That appears to be one topic on which all of the publishers agree and in agitating for more liberal and sustained patronage for Nebro business enterprises they are prompted by no loftier motive than their pride of race and their absorbing desire for the race's upclimb into the more important avenues of commerce and industry. For this they are to be commended and should be encouraged.
"By continually urging the race to support its business men, these papers are extending the trade of the Negro business men. But what are the Negro merchants as a group giving back to the Negro papers in return and what are they doing to co-operate with all this agitation? It must be granted that quite a few individual merchants give their printing of stationery to colored printers and not a few insert small advertisements in Negro newspapers which in many instances is "traded out," but there is entire absence of group appreciation on the part of Negro merchants for the great work now being done for them by the Negro editors." (To be continued next week.)

I am indeed glad that I am permitted to furnish a true statement so that the people may know about the great work of Mr. Chas. Page and this statement is made without his knowing it, and he merits the thankfulness and praise of the colored people of Sand Springs.
I first call attention to the case of the colored widow, Mrs. Turner, with four little helpless ones. He gave her her home which had only been partly paid off at her husband's death. Also the case of the widow, Lethy Jones. He gave her her home at the time of the death of her husband. At that time the widow had 3 little ones to provide for. Also the case of the widow Cook with 8 little children. He gave her a home and good food to lare for her little ones until she could maintain herself and little ones.
We gave the Colored Baptist church the lot with deed, the first set of widows and $100.00 in cash. He gave the Holiness church a lot with deeds and lumber to build. He gave the C. M. E. church a lot with deeds to build as soon as they organize. He gave the colored people two park sites and he is the man and the only one in the county who gave them a hospital.
He is a friend to the cripples. He always gives them work in order to make a living. He also takes care of H. T. Tutt and Walter Banks—just as good care as if he was their guardian. He has always been a good friend to me. The third Sunday in September last he spoke one word to me that will never be forgototen by me and that was that the Colored people were his "friends."
I beg space to have this item of appreciation of this great and good man printed in your paper, although I know he does not like notoriety.—Mose Flenory, 131 Oak St., Sand Springs, Okla.
Stop Eating Fire And Brimstone
Stop Eating Fire And Brimstone
The greatest blasphemy of God's character, during this part of the gospel age, is the doctrine of eternal torment, which is a product of the dark ages.
This theory of an eternity of torture after death was doped out to the people during the dark ages when none but a clergy class was permitted to read or explain the bible; and this class, being anxious to rule the people, placed such constructions upon the teachings of the bible as would make the masses feel it a fearful thing not to do as they commanded. This class, who were even then, lording it over God's heritage, told the people to do as they said and go straight to heaven when they die or disobey and go to hell, an eternity of torture.
When the common people, in God's due time, begin to see the errors and misconstructions that were being placed upon the bible, by this ruling class, they protested—hence the name protestant churches. This protest cost the lives of thousands of good Christians but they won and were instrumental in bringing about a condi-

STRAINING AT A GNAT, SWALLOWING A CAMEL
IT'S RATHER AMUSING the way the present administration of the police department draws the line between big things and little things. A careful study of the record made by the police department during the past two years reveals some startling facts which can not well be explained except by the word "incompetence." In fact, the police department is a huge joke. In two years time more than 20 murders have been committed in Tulsa and not one of the slayers have been caught by the police. Their favorite pastime seems to be in visiting pool halls and rounding up the frequenters of such places, whether they be working men or loafers, and march them to police station as vags, or chasing some unfortunate devil who they happen to see taking a drink from a half pint bottle. The latest stunt of the department was the arrest of Billy McClain and handing him into police court as a vag. Think of Billy as a vagrant, if you can. The fact is, they are sore because Billy pulled off a boxing show, after the department had stopped a boxing contest a few weeks before in Billy's place. The police say Billy should not pull off a little boxing contest because it makes the public spend their money which should be saved for the soldiers. However, they have no objections to foreigners coming in under the auspices of some lyceum and taking away thousands of dollars for one night's amusement. If this is democracy, let's stop the war.

THE COLORE DPEOPLE of Tulsa have not forgotten the good things republican candidates promised us during the last city campaign and they will not be hoodwinked again by the bunch who rode into office on the strength of the colored votes obtained by means of false pre-election promises. Under democratic rule the colored people of Tulsa have always fared well, and were treated fairly. But not so under the administration of our dear old republican friends. In fact, we have received nothing but insult and injury from the hands of our republican benefactors, whose first official act after getting safely in office was to pass a nefarious segregation ordinance and those who opposed this measure most were democrats, good, true-hearted men who believe in a square deal and daily practice it. Chief among these were George Reeves, county attorney, whose record in Tulsa is an open book. These are the calibre of men the democrats of Tulsa are offering to fill the vacancies to be created in the city hall next month. The day of idle sentimentality has passed with the Negro and we are rapidly developing into a of forethought and reason. The Negroes of Tulsa have been ill treated by the republicans and their lifelong loyalty to the G. O. P. has been required with insult and if God lives we will not forget.
We are willing to follow the lead of the committee headed by M. S. Blassingame and work for the success of the candidates they named, because we believe any man can well afford to support a ticket vouchered for by citizens of Mr. Blassingame's and the other gentlemen's calibre.
The colored people intend to help turn the city affairs back to the democrats, where they rightfully belong, and in this way pay off the republicans who have so shamefully treated them. Indeed, we will not forget.

Pledging full support of the strength of twelve million Negroes, the National Negro Press Association, in its second days' session, went on record as favoring continuing the war until victory is achieved and a world democracy permanently established. A resolution was adopted urging the members of the press to throw open their columns in helping the Liberty Loans, the War Savings and the Food Conservation campaigns.

Wm. LANE, Editor
Mr. Walter Banks and wife have recently opened a first class cafe on Oak street. Their place is well equipped and always clean. We wish several others in business here would take pattern after Mr. and Mrs. Banks.
The great fault with negro business men is that they want to be patronized because of their color, but never interest themselves about accommodating their customers. I know a certain colored groceryman here who keeps his store locked up about one third of the time; his excuse is that so many people want credit. Now it seems to me any man who has sense enough to run a business at all, ought to have sense enough to refuse those he doesn't want to credit. But this particular man will lock up his store and step over to some neighbor's house and watch the door. If some debtor comes to the store, he will stay hid but if some person who buys for cash comes he will ease over and wait on him and then lip back in his den. The sooner such a business is closed up for good, the better off Sand Springs colored people will be.
But to you, Mr. Banks, the colored people are compelled to lift our hats. We wish you well and we shall show our appreciation by our patronage.

The program was pronounced very good by the many people who attended. There was some disappointment, however, that the Tulsa high school did not appear, owing to the lateness of the train. The program was as follows:
Invocation.....Rev. G. G. Gratton
Sextet.....From "Lucia Di Lammermoor
The Royal Orchestra
Address.....Mr. J. A. Chappelle
Son. "Mother o' Mine".....Quartette
(Wilkins, Royal and Royal)
(Willaims, Royal and Royal)
Selection.....Booker Washington School
Piano Solo.....Miss M. Thomas
Closing Remarks.....Mr. W. E. Day
Mr. Lee Harrison Davis of Detroit,
Mich., was a visitor at the Bachelor
headquarters last Sunday evening, as
guest of Mr. H. T. Hutton.
WEWOKA NEWS
Wewoka is active in all the good things of the times, among which are the scholastic, ecclesiastic and patriotic auxiliaries, which are doing a splendid service in these times of war for the government.
Headed by Mrs. L. A. Tyson, Mrs. Cora E. Chiles, Mrs. Virginia Davidson, Mrs. Booker Williams, Mrs. Bruner, Mrs. Elma Jones, and Miss Orthera Carson of the local Red Cross chapter, the Senior Red Cross chapter officials rendered very patriotic services when they visited the Douglas school and organized a Junior Red Cross chapter. The lectures by Mrs. Tyson and Mrs. Chiles were very appropriate and interesting to the pupils.
During the week, quite a large number of the pupils of Douglass school
OUR BORS
Douglas school was favored with two visits by Miss Maud Smith, our canning and baking club agent. With her pleasant disposition, she captured the pupils of the school; and every one, who had reached the required age, joined the clubs. Miss Smith, who has charge of the Colored Emergency Home Demonstration Agency in this (Seminole) county, is interested in her work; and it is believed she and the good people of the town will make the government congratulate itself upon providing the colored people with this long wanted and deserved service.
Revs. Holmes, Thomas, Leake and Jones of the A. M. E., C. M. E., M. E. and Baptist churches, respectively, are keeping their churches in good condition in spite of the cold weather the past several weeks.
The business men and the professional men of the town, and we have quite a few of both, are highly successful in their businesses.
All the farmers are going into the new crops with determination and foresight. They are going to see to it that Wewoka makes a favorable showing to the fairs and the government in food production next fall.

STOP EATING FIRE AND
BRIMSTONE.
Continued from page one
tion under which all men could study
the bible as they desired.
Now, while the protestants congratulate themselves on breaking away from the mother church, the Catholic, they, nevertheless, brought with them and now have some of the errors of the dark ages—The doctrine of eternal torment and a literal lake of fire and brimstone are among the gross errors belonging to the period of the dark ages.
We are glad to note that most of the earnest-hearted and intelligent ministers have long understood that the bible nowhere teaches an eternity of torture after death; but I fear that most of them have not been sufficiently outspoken on the subject.
This is an important matter and one that should interest every individual.
If the bible, in its logical construction, teaches an eternity of torture for all the unrighteous (when there is none righteous) or if the bible teaches a different plan of salvation, the time is at hand when the whole world of mankind should know it and be absolutely clear on this subject.
I for one, as an humble servant of the Lord, most positively and unqualifiedly deny that the bible teaches any form of punishment after death.
Now if there is any one in the city of Tulsa or state of Oklahoma who is yet so unfortunate as to consciensiously believe in an eternity of torture for the unrighteous, after death, please don't criticize my position behind by back but kindly step forward and take the stand before my face and the public and let the people be the judge as to who present the scripture on the subject.
All that I've stated above is with an earnest desire to do the Lord's will and to help in tearing down the strong hold of the Devil.
I humbly ask the prayers of all the pure in heart that the will of God may be done and the great systems of error and masses of lies may be swept aside by the flood of truth and that God's glorious character and loving plans of salvation may be made known to the whole world of mankind.
I am yours in the interest of the truth.
RICHARD J. HILL.
COL. STRYKER DROPS DEAD.
Wm. Stryker, founder of the Tulsa Democrat, of which he was editor until two years ago, dropped dead at his residence here early Monday morning. He was sole owner of the Democrat Printing Company at the time of his death and was owner of several valuable pieces of real estate. He was also proprietor of the Quality Engraving Company. He left a wife, son, a brother and two sisters surviving him. The body was buried in Rose Hill cemetery Wednesday.

EUROPE NEEDS FOOD
Food Administration Declares It is an Absolute Sin to Waste Food—Food Has Become Sacred.
Europe is still sending an instistent call for more food. We must send it if the war is to go on efficiently. If we eat it all we cannot ship it, and the food administration has already tried to picture how much that wheat is needed by people who will starve if they do not get it, the food administration states.
"For the least bit of heedlessness on your part in food conservation some one somewhere in the world must suffer privation," an official statement declares. "The food administration has mastered the problem of America's food in such a way that every ounce of food conserved and kept in the currents of trade goes to an empty stomach in Europe.
"It is an absolute sin to waste food. Food has become sacred.
"Food means life; it means somebody's life, and you cannot escape responsibility.
"There is no waste of food among the allied nations."
WAR BREAD COSTLY TO BRITISH GOVERNMENT
Every year the British government pays $200,000,000 toward the cost of that nation's war bread. That is the principal reason why English bread prices are lower today to the consumer than in America. Incidentally the British bread is much poorer than the American.
Great Britain has taken over all home grown grain, bought at an arbitrary price, and all imported wheat bought in markets of the world at prevailing prices. This is turned over to the mills by the government at a price that allows the adulterator war bread loaf of four pounds to sell at 18 cents. The two pound loaf sells 9 cents, and the one pound loaf sells for 5 cents.
In milling, however, 14 per cent, more flour is extracted from the wheat than in America. And there is a compulsory adulteration of 20 per cent, and an allowable adulteration of 50 per cent.
Compared with American bread, the British product is only about 65 per cent, pure at its best. In France, under conditions somewhat similar, but with a larger extraction, the four pound loaf sells for 16 cents.
AMERICAN SAVINGS WILL MEASURE WHEAT EXPORTS
"We have already exported the whole of the surplus of the 1917 wheat harvest, over and above the normal demands of our own population. It is necessary, therefore, for the food administration to restrict export of wheat so as to retain in the United States sufficient supplies to carry our own people until the next harvest.
"Therefore all exports of wheat from now forward are limited entirely to volume of saving made by the American people in their consumption of wheat and wheat products.
"We continued wheat shipments for December as far as our situation allowed, but even with all the conservation made we were still unable to load several hundred thousand tons of food-stuffs urgently required by the allied nations during the month of December alone."

Is the science of adjusting the subluxations (displacements) in the spinal column, commonly called back bone, for the purpose of removing the pressure from impinged nerves. The spinal column is the only place where nerves pass between two hard, bony, movable surfaces; therefore it is the only place nerves can be impinged or the nerve supply restricted, and it matters not what part of the body or organ is affected, the cause is in the spinal column.
We simply analyze the spine and tell you where you are affected. Chiropractic is the only science that removes the cause of disease. No drugs, no pain, no knife. We use nothing but our hands, and the whole object is accomplished when the nerves are released. Paralysis, deafness, loss of voice, catarrh, gall stones, overweight, rheumatism, appenditis, neuralgia, neurasthenia, epilepsy, St. Vitus dancer, eye, ear, throat, lungs, stomach, liver, kidney, bladder trouble, bad habits, lost vigor, all quickly and permanently disappear under Chiropractic adjustment, properly given. We remove the cause of disease and nature cures. Analysis and consultation free. Investigation costs you nothing and means your life, health and happiness.
