Tulsa Entertains State Medics! A Fearies Exponent of. Right and justice. An Uncompromising Defender of the Colored Race. We fear only to do wrong. Tulsa MANY PROMINENT MEN VISIT THE MAGIC CITY Tulsa Extends Glad Hand to the Doctors, Dentists and Pharmacists of Oklahoma. The Colored Citizens of Tulsa during the past week availed themselves of the opportunity of showing off the unexcelled capacity of Tulsa as a convention city. The chance came to them through the 13th Annual Convention of the Oklahoma Medical, Death, and Pharmaceutical Association which convened here last Wednesday and continued for several days. This meet-brought members of these three professions not only from all over Oklahoma but from points as distant as Memphis and Kansas City. The hospitality manifested to these strangers within Tulsa's gates was both generous and spontaneous. Our most palatial homes were thrown open and receptions and dinners were so numerous that even old High Cost of Living had to turn green with envy around his gills. A number of enjoyable receptions were tendered by various well known women's clubs of Tulsa. In return it may be said the visiting M. D. and P. Association reciprocated in a manner which proved both highly beneficial and instructive to the people of our community. Free clinics were held at Frussell Hospital, and an illustrated lecture thru the media of moving pictures at one of the local theatres was highly appreciated by the large audience present. On Thursday evening the visitors had choice of a variety of entertainments ranging from a lecture at the High School by Needham Roberts, the world's war herp, to the Elks' Ball, which proved to be one of the most recherche social events of the season. Brilliant Reception for Medics: The palatial residence of Dr. and Mrs. T. L. Travis, 527 North Elgin street, Wednesday, from 5:30 to 7:30 p.m. was the brilliant scene of a reception tendered the visiting and local members of the Medical, Dental and Pharmaceutical profession and their wives, by the well known Modern Priscilla Art Club of Tulsa. This club is made up of a number of the most prominent and representative Colored natrons of the city—a fact which stamps the reception as one of the highest class socially. The house was very beautifully decorated in the club colors—pink and green. An appetizing refreshment of two courses—brick cream and cakes was daintily served by a group of school girls. Quite a number of the visitors attended and also the parloos were thronged by groups of Tulsa's handsome and cultured women. A large audience of Tulsa's most enlightened class were out last Wednesday night at Vernon Chapel, A. M. E. Church to lend their presence to the cordial and hospitable welcome extended by our local medical fraternity to their guests from all over the state and elsewhere, who had come to attend the convention of the Oklahoma Medical, Dental and Pharmaceutical Association. The meeting was called to order by Dr. A. J. Whitley, president, who presented Dr. H. J. Watson, as Master of Ceremonies. Addresses of welcome were delivered as follows: Dr. B. A. Wayne for Tulsa Medics; Prof. E. W. Woods for City Schools; A. J. Smitherman for business men; Rev. H. T S. Johnson for Ministers; C. E. Corbett for Attorneys. These addresses were snappy and eloquent as a whole. The response by Dr. F. S. Jones of Enid was ably delivered. The program was interspersed with solo and choruses rendered by local musical artists. On Thursday the a local theatre was crowded by a large audience to witness instructive pictures illustrating phases of dangerous diseases, this exhibition being put on for benefit of the public by the association. THE TULSA STAR COLORED WOMAN SHAMEFULLY MISTREATED American Express Agent at Garnet Okla.. Threatens Bodily Harm Using Abusive Language. T. H. Spears, the talented young attorney of this city, who a few weeks ago brought the Midland Valley Railroad to account for mistreatment of Colored passengers, has undertaken to see that justice is rendered the Race in another matter. In this new case, like a true knight in the days when "Knighthood was in Flower," he has espoused the cause of a woman, Mrs. Lissig Rowe of Garnett, Okla. Attorney Spears has served notices on the officers of the Frisco Railroad and the American Express company that in behalf of his client, Mrs. Rowe, of a claim for damages by reason of the conduct of their agent toward her on May 10 last. The petition sets forth that Mrs. Rowe ordered ice cream from the Purity Ice Company of Tulsa, which was shipped prepaid to Garnett. When Mrs. Rowe called for it, the station agent told her to come around to the door, which she did, and the agent began to abuse her and threatened to kick her across the railroad tracks; that he shoved her through the door, and told her there was the the cream, if she wanted it, take it, and if you don't want it, I don't give a damn how long it sets there, God d—n you." Attorney Spears claims his client was injured, humiliated and insulted willfully and wrongfully in violation of law by agents of these companies. COLORED YOUTH WHO TOOK HOSE TO HAVE A WIFE NEXT TIME They say that justice is blind, but Will Fisher, a young Colored boy, formerly employed at the Hunt-Murry company is scratching his head and wondering if it pays to be honest. Will seems to have had a fancy for ladies silk hose. At any rate he was found with a pair in his possession and could not explain satisfactorily where he got them. When Justice S. C. Maxey looking the boy squarely in the eye and asked him if he really stole those hose, the boy didn't tell a lie. Then Judge Maxey scratched his head and asked: "Bill, are you a married man?" Bill admitted that he was still "loose." "Well," the judge drawled, "young man, I'll just fine you $40 and costs. If you had been a married man if I thought you stole the stockings for your wife I wouldn't have charged you but $5, but since you are not married I think it is a more serious crime." Knocks Out the Boll Weevil (A. N. P. Service) AUGUSTA, Ga., May 1.0—John A. Rhodes who is now a citizen of Augusta, but who was born and reared in Burke County, not far from Augusta has invented a machine for destroying the boll weevil. The machine is called "The Rhodes Economy Duster," and has been patented by the United States Government. Its practicability and usefulness has been demonstrated in and around Augusta during the past several months, and the machine is pronounced by those who have seen it work to be the most wonderful thing yet patented to conquer the dreaded boll weevil. Colored Editor Runs Daily. (A. N. P. Service) KNOXVILLE, Tenn., May 10.—The East Tennessee News of this city has completed the arrangements to issue daily editions during the progress of the A. M. E. Zion General Corference which convenes in this city beginning on the 3rd of May and continuing through the month. While the greater bulk of the news published will relate to the proceedings of the Conference the management also proposes to provide a general news service. Weekly Mail Edition TULSA, OKLAHOMA, SATURDAY, MAY 15, 1920. In The Political World Political Stargraph Dope Collected From Authentic Sources for Star Readers. Socialists Want Debs The meeting held by the socialist party at Madison Square Garden, New York, this week is considered the most important ever held by that party. Eugene V. Debs, now, serving 10 year sentence at Atlanta, Ga., under the espionage act was launched as presidential candidate of the socialists for the 5th time. The convention endorsed six hour labor day and in the opening address Morris Hillquit, socialist leader, bitterly denounced President Wilson. He declared the socialists elected him as a radical and he had double crossed them. Hillquit declared there would be two million socialists before the end of 1920. Tne "Dark Horse"—Senator Knox. The complicated republican presidential situation has been rendered more complicated by the entrance of Senator Philander C. Knox of Pennsylvania as a "dark horse" candidate. Senator Knox was recently endorsed for this honor by his colleague, Senator Boies Penrose, who did so as "feeler" to find out how Senator Hiram Johnson of California would look upon Knox's candidacy in case of a dead lock at Chicago. Johnson and Knox are close personal friends, and it is likely Johnson would consider his candidacy favorably in case there was no chance for him to win. Johnson has declared he will not bolt the party if he fails of nomination A Double-Barreled Candidate. Despite his overwhelming defeat in the recent California primaries by Senator Johnson, Herbert Hoover has an increasing strength and following in the eastern states. Hoover's candidacy is peculiar in that he is also being considered as a presidential possibility by many democrats. He has 33 instructed democratic delegates, and 41 instructed and uninstructed delegates already chosen to the San Francisco Democratic Convention. Religion Lost; Now Our Politics. John Tillman, democrat, Arkansas member of the House of Representatives, declared recently: "Party lines must go and the democratic and republican parties must soon be welded into one great party in order to combat the 'Reds.' This is the only way to save the country." Twine Says He'll Win. The Hon. W. H. Twine, pioneer republican leader, announces he has filed as contestant delegate from the Second Oklahoma Congressional District and that he will be seated and will take part in the proceedings of the National Republican Convention at Chicago. Cowgill Is Sitting Tight. A recount of votes cast in the recent municipal election at Kansas City, will be had on account of contestant Foster, who claims illegal votes were cast for Mayor James Cowgill, democrat. Cox Leads With Instructed Votes. According to latest reports the following is standing of democratic presidential candidates as to the number of instructed delegates: Cox 74; Hoover 33; Edwards 28; Senator Owen 20; Hitchcock 16; Bryan 10; and Gerard 10. Woman Republican Leader. Republican headquarters for the national campaign have been opened up at Lawrence Hotel, Oklahoma City, Okla., according to the announcement of John D. Appleby, secretary of state committee. Mrs. Otis R. Cureton of Muskogee, vice TUCKER SAID TO HAVE CHANCE FOR BISHOP chairman of the committee and in charge of women's department, will have office in the headquarters. No arrangements have yet been made for maintaining an office for work among the Colored adherents to 'the party. Leading Candidates are Wood and McAdoo. The Literary Digest has been conducting a nation wide poll in order to ascertain strength of the candidates for presidential honors. According to its latest report the standing of the candidates is as follows: McAdoo 39,120; Edwards 28,904; Wilson 28,206; Bryan 19,900; Cox 15,080; Clark 9,148. Republican candidates as follows: Wood 136,182; Johnson 118,016; Hoover 113,998; Lowden 59,352; Harding 23,753. Wilson Stands Pat on League President Wilson has issued a call to his party to stand four square on the League of Nations pact. It is his desire to fight it out on this line during pending campaign and he particularly wishes the republicans to nominate some candidate who is known, like Senators Hiram Johnson and Philandeer Knox, to be radically opposed to the League. Missouri Does Square Thing. The recent republican state convention held at Kansas City selected Dr. Crossland, nationally known Negro of St. Joseph, Mo., as one of the big light delegates to the national republican convention, and Mrs. Victoria Haley, St. Louis, a Colored woman equally as well known as Dr. Crossland was made his alternate. These selections have given great satisfaction. Mrs. Ada Benge, Fort Gibson, Okla., has entered as candidate for democratic nomination for superintendent of schools, Muskogee County, against present incumbent Heber Battles. Senator Robert L. Owen has requested Gov. J. B. A. Robertson to call a meeting in his office at the capitol on May 24 of all the democratic delegates from Oklahoma to the national convention to meet him. Bishop Denny Favors "Jim Crow." BIRMINGHAM, Ala., May 10.—U-qualified opposition to the proposal for unification of Methodist Churches was sounded by Bishop Collins Denny in a speech before Methodist ministers and laymen in the Sunday School room of the First Methodist Church. Bishop Denny discussed from every angle the plan to unionize the Methodist Churches of the country. "The proposed union has its weaknesses," declared Bishop Denny. "It would place the Negro on the same footing with the white people and allow them to enter the white churches as members. Those who favor the plan declare that Negroes would not enter white churches. Now we have separate railroad cars for Negroes, yet they have to be taken from these cars occasionally. When they go beyond their rights where they are forbidden by the law, what will be the result when it is in conformity with the law? There would be approximately 303,000 Negroes affected by the plan of unification. That is one of every 40. Why should we accept a plan that affects six million white people and puts them on the same basis with 303,000 Negroes?" Grand Master Stewart in Town Grand Master R. E. Stewart of Muskogee was a visitor in the city yesterday on legal matters. TWINE THWARTS OKLA. "LILY WHITES" Republicans Meet in Hotel Where Negroes Can Enter Only as Flunkies. (Special to Tulsa Star) MUSKOGEE, Okla., May 12.—How the republicans of the second district made their convention here two months ago "lily whites" and the Neegro delegates then hell a convention of their own and are now contesting the seating of the white delegates to the national convention has just come to light. The contesting Negroes tell the story—the white leaders aren't saving a word about it, since Jake Hamor and Jim Harris went to Chicago and were confronted by the contest. The story is best told in the words of W. H. Twine, Negro delegate and contestant. Whites Met In Severs. "The convention was called to meet in the district courtroom but when the white leaders saw Negroes among the delegates from some of the counties, the convention was adjourned to the Hotel Severs where a Negro can't stick his head in," Twine said. "Two Negroes in the Okmulgee delegation went to the hotel and were promptly put out by the management. They came to me and we just held a convention of our own, elected our delegates and alternates and drew up our protest. I was elected one of the delegates and I'm going to have a seat and a vote on the floor of th convention, too." Surprise to Leaders. The white republican leaders knew nothing of the Negro convention and the contest of the delegates unti Hammon and Harris went to Chicago and had the thing "sprung" on them. The contest charges that the white delegates to the district convention, though there is no white and black designation, held a "social" convention while the Negroes held a real political convention. It further charges that those who elected the white delegates are working only for their selfish interests and not for the good of the party and that, in fact, they are injuring the party's chances in this district. "Oh, we've charged everything we could think of," Twine said, in telling the story. PRESIDENT OF OBERLIN TO SPEAK AT TUSKEGGE MAY TUSKEGEE Institute, Ala., May 12.—Dr. Robert R. Moton, Principal of Tuskegee Institute, announced recently that President H. C.

LOUIS, MO., May 14.—The A. M. E. Conference in session in this city has voted to increase the Episcopal Districts from fifteen to eighteen and to elect five new Bishops. The contest for the Bishopric is becoming very interesting with several likely candidates in the field, each one expecting to be one of the lucky ones. Rev. C. R. Tucker, of Tulsa, Oklahoma, is considered one of the most likely candidates. The entire Oklahoma delegation are strong for the Tulsa man and it is generally conceded here that he has an excellent chance. TUCKER FAILS TO LAND IN HIS FIGHT FOR BISHOP Late news from St. Louis as we go to press informs us that Rev. C. R. Tucker of this city who was an aspirant fo' Bishop was defeated in the contest. Sabbatical Leave Granted Howard University Instructors. WASHINGTON, D. C., May 13.—Sabbatical leave has been granted by the Trustees of Howard University to four of its teachers during the school term 1920-21. Prof. Chas. H. Wesley of the Department of History has been awarded an Austin Teacher's Scholarship in Harvard University, and will study for the Ph. D. degree next year. Professor Martha McLear of the School of Education, is planning to study at Columbia University, being registered for the degree of Ph. D. Miss McLear's study will be the "History of Education." She will also do some work in Sociology. Professor Thomas W. Turner, Acting Dean of the School of Education, and Professor of Applied Biology, will continue research in Vegetable Physiology at Cornell University, Ithaca, New York. This particular line of research has large agricultural significance, and for this reason the United States Department of Agriculture has given him ample facilities in the last few years for carrying on investigation in its laboratories. Also because of the important bearing which these investigations have in the field of agriculture, the Department sent him to the Northern Maine Experimental Laboratory, where better facilities were offered for carrying on his investigations in connection with the sterility of the white potato. Professor Turner will give attention, while at Cornell next year, also to "Education," particularly "Agricultural Education." Professor George W. Hines, Assistant Professor in the School of Commerce and Finance, will attend the University of Washington at Seattle. His major work will be in Corporation Finance, while he will also take certain studies in Accounting and Business Organization The University Trustees have generously voted a substantial portion of the yearly salaries received by these professors along with the year's absence.

HILL This Command merely enjoiases idleness on the Seventh Day of each week. It does not say to cease from ordinary work and engage in Religious work, as many of its advocates seem to suppose. But on the contrary, it prohibits all kinds of work. Many who think themselves bound by this command neither rest on the seventh day nor on the first day of the week, which without orders, they make an effort to keep instead of the seventh day which the law appointed for those under it. On the contrary, to very many the first day is as busy a day as any. The ruling under the law was that any one who even picked up sticks or kindled a fire was a violator of thic Command, and must be put to death. (Numbers 18: 32-36). How many of those who claim to keep this commandment do far more work in the way of cooking and etc. They, their sons, and daughters, their menservants and maidservants? (See Exod. 35: 3). If that Law i nosw in force, and has been extended beyond the Isrealites (On whom alone it was put), so as to include Christians (Followers of Christ) then every Christian violates it repeatedly, and is deserving of death for each offense; for they that violated Moses' Law died without mercy.—Hebr. 10: 20. But though our views on this subject differ widely from those of most Christian people, we are very glad that one day of each week is set apart for rest from business without regard to which of the seventh days is thus observed, or by what law or law giver it was originally appointed. We greatly enjoy the day, and think it not only a blessing for those who use it for worship and study, but also for those who use it merely as a day of rest and recreation from toil, to enjoy the beauties of nature, or to visit with their friends and families as they can not do on other days. And we are especially pleased that the day set a part by the Government under which we live is the first day of the week, because of the same blessed memories and associations which gave that day a special sacredness to the Church in the days of the Apostles. The Apostles declared that the Jewish Law (Which included the Command relative to the Seventh Day) was superceeded by the new and more comprehensive law of the New Creation thereafter in operation toward all who accept Christ. The Apostles used the Seventh Day as a time for preaching Christ, just as they used every day in the week, and especially because on that day, the Jews, their most hopeful hearers met for worship and study. But the Apostles no where recognized the Seventh Day Sabbath as a day of rest, as the Jewish Law Covenant had enforced it. Contrary, they taught (Romans 14: 5-8). That any and all days are acceptable for good works done in the service of God and for the benefit of fellowmen. (Math. 12: 10-12). The ransom was given for all mankind, but its benefits are applicable only to those who believe. Thus far the believers are only a few compared with the mass of mankind. These have escaped from all condemnation of all broken laws, while of the remainder, the world in general still continues under the original condemnation, and Jews who have not accepted Christ are still condemned by Moses' Law Covenant. "He that believeth is passed (Reckonedly) from death unto life (John 5: 24). While he that believeth not is condemned al- "The Son of Man is Lord of the Sab bath Day" Matt. 12: 1-13. (Continued from last week.) "Remember the Sabbath Day, to keep it Holy. Six days shall thou labor and do all thy work. But the Seventh Day is the Sabbath of the Lord thy God. In it thou shall not do any work. Thou, nor thy son, nor thy daughter, thy manservant, nor thy maid servant, nor thy catle nor thy stranger that is within thy gates. For in six days the Lord made Heaven and earth, the sea and all that in them is, and rested the seventh day. Wherefore, the Lord blessed the Sabbath Day and Hallowed it." Bv RICHARD J. HILL ready," (John 3: 18). The whole race of mankind was condemned six thousand years ago, and, if a Jew, he was additionally bounded by the law covenant and has not escaped the condemnation that is on the world. (roman 8: 10). The only ones who have escaped this condemnation that has so long been upon mankind, are referred to by the apostle Paul (roman 8: 1). "There is, therefore, now no condemnation to them which are in Christ Jesus, who walk not after the host but after the Spirit." These are the Free Ones: Free from all laws and all penalties—free indeed. "In the Son shall make you ye shall be free indeed," (John 8: 36). This could not possibly apply to any one who put ourselves under any restraint in keeping the law, but one says can be that God has released these entirely from both the Law given in Leen and the Law given at Sinai just so, such ones being justified by the death of Christ, and released from their former condemnation, and having received his spirit, which means the love for God and his creatures, are free from all laws so long as the will of Christ is then will and they do his will to the extent of their ability. Under such conditions we repeat, one is only under the law of love. What is the difference between the law of love and the law of thou shalt and thou shalt not? We might illustrate the operation of the law of love by the action of a mother or father who really love their child. It is absolute unnecessary to lay down rules for the father or mother as to what they should do for the absolute necessities of the child they love. All they need is to know what is best to do and they gladly do it, even at the cost of their life; but one not being moved by the spirit of love it is necessary to lay down rules of thou shalt and thou shalt not. Servant would of necessity be in the class governed by thou shalt and thou shalt not. (The Jewish people was a house of servants under Moses). A Son is supposed to act in his father's business from the standpoint of the highest interest and love for the father and his household, therefore you can readily understand that a son would do all that a servant would do and much more. When Christ came he established the house of Sons and all who come into Christ, through consecration of their all to him are members of the house of Sons and are not under the Servant law "Thou shalt and thou shalt not," but are under the law of love for God and all his creatures. Through him, Christ, our best endeavors to do his will are acceptable, and we are reckoned as having passed from under condemnation to death in to justification to life so long as we abide under the blood which secured the new covenant. In no other way could any be accepted by God. For the law given in Eden was one that required absolutely perfect obedience, and the law covenant given at Sinai demanded the same. And now since we know that God could not give an imperfect law (James 3: 11), and since we know that no imperfect person could fully obey a perfect law, we see the necessity for us being free from under the law and accepted in the merit of our beloved Christ. Hence we conclude that those in Christ, whether they be Jews or Gentiles, are in no sense under the law given at Sinai, Graven upon stones, termed "The Ten Commandments,"—neither to the Ceremonial attachments relating to typical feasts, sacrifices and services. (Heb. 9: 1). No wonder, then, that the Apostle so earnestly sought to guard the new Gentile converted from becoming Jews and seeking life under the law covenant; by which neither he nor his nation had been able to profit. No wonder he exhorted them to stand fast in the liberty of Christ and his Gracious arrangements under the Covenant of Grace. It was in view of this danger of their losing faith in Christ's finished work and trusting for salvation to their own efforts to keep the Law Covenant by works that Paul even prohibited the Circumcision of Gentile converts, although he approved of it for Hebrews to whom it was given as a symbol and rite, long before the Law Covenant was made. Hence the remark that, "The Gospel to the Circumcision," was specially supervised by Peter, while the Gospel to the uncircumcised, the Gentiles, was specially Paul's mission. (Gal. 2: 7-8-14-16). It will be quite a help in the study of the Scriptures to observe that the Apostles often refer themselves as having been under the Law Covenant and subsequently freed from its bondage. And to Gentile converts as not having passed through such an experience.—See Gal. 2: 17; 3: 3; 13: 14; 5: 5-6-8-10; Eph. 2: 11-19. Kindly understand me. There are some points concerning God's plan of Salvation upon which my Adventist friedns and I fully agree, but their doctoring of the keeping of the Seventh Day as essential to salvation, that the days of creation were periods of twenty-four hours, that Christ will appear, materially and literally, and that the whoie PAGE THREE world of mankind has been and now is on trial for life or death everlasting during this Gospel age, and that death settles the question as to whether one is lost or saved, are among some of the dead files of error which make the Adventist's "Gospel pudding" nauseating to the logical minded and truth hungry person I admire the zeal with which the Advents do what they believe to be right in many respects, but I do not admire their closing their eyes to the plain and logical truth stated by the Apostle and the Lord Jesus Christ concerning many points of vital interest for the salvation of Man. I note them to be like many other well meaning persons who are able to quote much scripture but gifted on misinterpretation not intentionally, of course, but ignorantly. But I am very thankful that the God I serve will reward them for all the good they do with good intention; but may it be understood that the highest rewards and blessings in the Kingdom of God will go to those who understand the plans of God and do and teach accordingly. (Math. 5: 19). Adventism is not the only "ism" contaminated with error. Nearly all of the "isms" have within their "Gospel Pie," the dead flies of immortality of the soul, Hell Fire, Eternal Torment, and the doctrine of the Trinity. The Christian has come into relationship with God not under the terms of the Law Covenant made with the Jews, but under the terms of the new Covenant sealed and ratified with the precious blood of Christ. The Christians therefore have nothing whatever to do with the terms and conditions of the Jewish Covenant which bore only upon Israel after the flesh. The fact that by the deeds of the Law Covenant no flesh was justified in God's sight (Romans 3: 20), leads us to rejoice that we have a better covenant with God through Christ. Our covenant is very much higher than the Law Covenant, just as its mediator, Christ, is much higher than was the mediator of the Law Covenant, Moses. So also is Spiritual Israel (All who come into Christ by consecration), is much higher in every way than was fleshy Israel. The foundation of our covenant is not the Ten Commandments written in stone, delivered at Sinai, but a much higher statement of the Divine Law—The Spirit of that law, the meaning, the intent, the grand completeness of the Divine Law, of which the Ten Commandments was but an incomplete statement brought down to the measurable comprehension of that people. Our New Commandment, as expressed by our Master, Jesus, is not composed of a number of threats, thou shall not thou shalt not! But is composed of one Commandment, thou shall love—the Lord thy God and thy fellow creatures. Love is the fulfilling of the Jewish Law but a fulfilling also of the entire Law of God, as it relates to himself and all his creatures. In this new Commandment, there is no reference whatever to a Sabbath Day. Nevertheless, as the Ten Commandments to Israel and their Covenant and their Mediator fore-shadowed this higher law of Love and our New Covenant and our Great Mediator, so also we find that the Sabbath feature of the Jewish Law has an anti-type on a higher plane in the Christian experience—a better Sabbath. In the type it was a physical rest to the natural, typical Israelite. In the antitype it is a mental rest, a heart rest to the antitypical Israelite. As the Jewish Sabbath Day typified the rest of heart, the joy and peace which Christians possess through faith in Christ, in realizing their sins forgiven, ther iniquities pardoned and themselves reconciled to God thru the death of his son, so also the law of the New Covenant, Love, commands all who are in Christ to rest in full faith in the great work finished for us, by our Mediator at Calvary. As the Apostle declares: "Being justified by faith we have peace (rest) with God through our Lord Jesus Christ." Thus we enjoy the rest or Sabbath of our New Covenant. Thus the New Mediator has provided for his Spiritual Isreal a very much better rest than that which was provided by the Typical Mediator for the Typical Isreal. As seven is a type of perfection, of completeness, so the Seventh Day of rest was a type of the complete or perfect rest which we have in Christ, which Isreal after the flesh never did and never could enjoy. The Sabbath or rest under the New Covenant is not merely for a day. Alas! How weary we would be if we could only rest in Christ one day in seven! But we may rest continually in Christ, every day and every hour—trusting not to our own sufficiency, but to his. Thus we rest from works of self-righteousness, from all efforts to justify our self before God. Accepting the justification freely offered to us through the precious blood, and resting in it continually we have peace with God, rest of heart. We have committed all of our affairs into his hands, and are resting in him—keeping a continual Sabbath all the days of the week and all the weeks of the year. As respects physical rest, however, we are under no command re- (Continued on Page 6).

Houston, has officially approved forms of new permanent policies of exceptional liberality into which former Service men may convert their wartime (term) insurance. Announcement is made by Director R. G. Choleley-Jones of the Bureau of War Risk Insurance that conversions into the new forms of insurance already have passed the half billion dollar mark. Liberal ruling permits reinstatement of lapsed or canceled insurance before July 1, 1920, regardless of how long service man has been discharged by payment of only two monthly premiums on amount of insurance to be reinstated, and satisfactory statement of health with application. When Congress passed the War Risk Insurance Act, which has been characterized as "the most liberal law ever placed on the statute boasts of a grateful nation," it provided that the war time policies, which were planned to endure for only five years, might be converted into permanent forms of Life Insurance to be issued by the United States Government. Announcement of the actual provisions of the new policies which now is made, was deferred until necessary, supplemental legislation could be passed, in order that the policies might be made models of liberality. These policies are issued to former and active service men and women of the American forces, on terms which have been made exceptionally favorable, in recognition of their sacrifices. The Government pays all the costs of administration. A total of 4,610,388 applications for War Risk Insurance, representing more than 840,000,000,000 have been received in the Bureau of War Risk Insurance. The applicants, in many cases have been waiting definite announcement of the terms of the new policies, before applying for conversion of their War Risk Insurance to permanent forms.

Efforts of the defense to have the cases of the six Negroes transferred to the federal court and to obtain a change of venue were overruled. A large number of veniremen examined after the calling of Martin's case were rejected, and when court recessed tonight only one had qualified. The cases taken up for retrial today were remanded on the ground that the indictments under which the first trials were held were unsatisfactorily worded. No Color Line in Waiters. ASHEVILLE, N.

While we would be glad that all might reeognize this matter from this standpoint of the New Covenent, yet we know that none can view it and observe it fron: this standpoint except those who have entered into the New Cov- enent relationship with God, and those we know are comparatively few of the world’s population, «l- thoveh our hope is that in God's due time, the Millennial Age, all mankind shall be brought to the krowledge and appreciation of this New Covenent, and may then, if they will, enjoy all of its provisions inchwding this rest of faith, the an- tits pieal Sabbath, which can be en- joyed only by God's faithful people. Meantime, however, the world of mankind, amongst whom we live, have through various _ misconcep- ticns, both of the Law Covenent and the New Covenent, set apart one day of the week as a Sabbath or rest day, and as Christians who «n- joy the real Sabbath of Rest and Pesce in Christ, we are glad to avail ovrselves of the regulations of the world to abstain from worldly la- ber and deve ourselves to Spirit. uai works, spiritual feasting and spiritual up building of character in Righteousness on that day. But while recognizing and observing it carefully, because it is the law of the land, and while pleased to have this special opportunity for Chris- tien fellowship and spiritual co: operation, we deny in total that it is of Divine ob’igation. And while we should observe what ever day mignt be appointed by “the powers that be.” we are especially glad that they heve by common consent adopted the day, which we prefer to oll others, because it commemorates the resurrection of our Lord and Master, and hence it commemorates the beginning of our rest of faith in him.

COLORED LABOR LIKE ANY OTHER LABOR President Ferguson Has Greatest Confidence in Colored Race. (ALN. P. Service), HAMPTON, Va., May 14.—Homer L. Ferguson, president of the New- port News Ship Building and Dry Dock Company, who is also a tru,- tee of Hampton University, declar- ed in a recent speech here, “that Colored labor is remarkably like any other kind of labor if given synipathetie and honest — treatment. It seve its money in about the same proportion as} other people. The difference in habits between the races as to thrift is not nearly so great as you are sometimes told, The grcat advantage of the Colored men is their desire to own a piece of ground. Those who own ground meke for the safety of our institn- tions and our Republic. Leaders you should be. Leaders you will be. Remember you must lead, because you have acquired and pursued the art of thinking. It is important to lead in the art of working and in the art of doing, in’ industry, and promptness, and in standing by the job and being steadfast—not being pit aside by little difficulties. 1 have the greatest confidence in the future of the Colored race.” COLORED DELEGATES LOCKED OUT BY “LILLIES” Shut Out State Convention Colored Delegates Hold Separate Convention, (Star News Service) LITTLE ROCK, Ark.

May 12.— The Kansas City delegation of Ne- gro Business Men, while guests of President Hale at Tennessee Indus- triel and Normal College were grected by Governor Roberts of Teanessee, who spoke in part as follows: “There is one plane above all others,” said Governor Roberts, “on wh'ch there rests the solution of all difficulties; it is not new, and it is simple, but it affords the only solution, and that is the plane of justice. “This justice,” he continued with an earnestness and sincerity that could not be questioned by the most skeptical, “applies to all men with- out regard to race or creed. There is no such thing as one justice for ove group and another justice for avother. Those looking for right do not look for color. “The Colored race should have its own leaders, and at all times, in every avenue of life, needs hone=t, educated, high class, dependable leadership, who will xeceive the hearty co-operation and good will of the white people. It is only through leadership of this kind that the great opportunities can be work- ed out, and the goal of success) reached in educational, industrial and religious and political life. “There must be,” said Governer Reberts, “equality before the law, and that means absolute equality: The principle of the Golden Rule must apply everywhere. A quick: ened conscience will demand thal these things be written into ll laws. “There will be peace when we have justice. As long as I am gov" ernor of Tennessee, I will see peo) ple only as they are, and not 4s) they profess to be; I will let noto- ing deter me from using every foreé} at my comniand to uphold the cot stitution, and give to every persed po matter how humble, equal and] exact justice.” Mrs. Belle Johnson is rapidly rf covering the use of her right st injured in the recent accident 0 Archer street, and her friends #¢4 patrons of Bell and Little Cafe at much pleased.

"BREAD CAST upon the waters will return again after many days," quotes the Scripture, but few of us are willing to take the chance with the article at 15 cents a loaf. THE GANG OF KNOCKERS and back-biters are busy plying their stock in trade and the Race continues to suffer thereby. No good has ever been accomplished by this class of citizens and never will be. THE STAR OFFICE feels highly complimented over the friendly visits of many prominent visitors this week, and accept modestly the nice things they all said about our paper, our office and our plant. ON VIEWING some of our rising generation we are reminded of the old adage, "As the twig is bent, the/tree is inclined." And then our sympathy goes out to the woodman whose duty it will be to prune the trees. "POLITICS make strange bed fellows" is a saying old and true. It has done more in Tulsa. It has, in the nature of things that be, inoculated a falsetto germ of respectability which makes erstwhile gamblers, bootleggers and libertines parade their imagined importance and consider themselves the peers, if not the superiors, of decent men and women. "What fools these mortals be." OUR REPUBLICAN FRIENDS seem to be hopelessly split over the political patronage accorded by the City Administration. Factional fights have resulted and present indications point to a general upheaval among the Colored G. O. P. supporters. Protests have been filed with the City Commissioners and Monday has been set aside as a day of hearing for the petitioners. And so the stormy period begins with the republican administration. THE ADMIRABLE SUGGESTION of Secretary Douglass of Tulsa's Chamber of Commerce to honor the dead heroes of the late World's War by planting trees on Decoration Day is worthy of adoption by all our citizens both white and Colored. We think it would be an excellent idea for our public spirited women to take hold of this and make arrangements for planting trees commemorating the Tulsa brave soldier boys who went over but have never come back. THE TULSA STAR has never been found wanting where the interests of the Race were concerned. In our desire to serve the Race unselfishly and well, we have often lost sight of our own interest and well being. We have even faced death for the Race. Our loyalty in this respect can not be questioned; and yet there are those who would dare to question it. Be that as it may, we are still here to render such services whenever and wherever we feel the same needed. THE PRESENCE of the members of the Oklahoma Medical, Dental and Pharmaceutical Association in Tulsa this week has given new inspiration to our citizens as a whole, but particularly to the medical profession of this city. There is no better way of infusing general knowledge of the laws of health and the scientific treatment of diseases that the human body is heir to, than by these annual meetings of our medicos where public free clinics are held for the benefit of local practitioners and their patients. Tulsa feels itself highly honored and exceptionally fortunate in having as our guests this week such brilliant array of intelligence as was found in this aggregation of the disciples of aesculapius and we hope our visitors have taken away with them pleasant reminiscenes of their stay in our city, as well as some real benefits and inspirations from what they have seen of our progress along commercial and professional lines.

It is also said by some that the hungry-dog-like scramble of some one hundred or more applicants for a few places for Colored men on the city pay roll and the utter lack of harmony among them caused the city administration to take this action to quiet the troubled waters. In either case the Race has been done a great injustice. No man or set of men should be allowed to set themselves up as dictators for any community, and no amount of factional discord among so called politicians is sufficient cause for the City Administration to pursue its present apparent policy toward the Colored people of Tulsa. But we can not lose sight of the fact that, in a great measure, those within our own ranks are responsible for present conditions affecting our people. The interests of the Race in Tulsa have been sacrificed on the altar of narrow, selfish ambition and by men who would have us regard them as true Race men and who would appear to the powers that be as leaders among their people. The sooner we get rid of this class of cattle the better it will be for both white and Colored people of this community.

The Star is not, however, opposed to the collection and expenditure of the greatest possible fund for education, provided there are no inequalities practised in its distribution between the white and black children of Oklahoma. On its face this petition is quite alluring, and would be all right were it not for the inevitable "fly in the ointment." It very temptingly relates how these additional funds are to be raised, and then at close, spoils everything, so far as the interests of the Colored people are concerned, by stating these funds are to be distributed just like other state educational funds, as "already provided for by law." Right there is where the Star gets off. It is unnecessary in our opinion to cite concrete instances of the injustices wrought upon us through the "already provided for by law" method. They are too numerous to mention. The Negro schools of Oklahoma as a whole are negligible, and so emasculated as to be unworthy of the name—schools. The framers of our constitution are entitled to the hearty congratulations of all opponents of "Negro Education" for having so adroitly afforded the spectacle of drafting laws providing for the education of Coloreen children which compel them to grow up in ignorance. The aim of the framers was not to eliminate illiteracy among our people, but rather to perpetuate it. HOWARD GETS IN BAD AGAIN Tulsa, Okla., May 7, 1920. Editor Tulsa Star, Dear Sir: A article appearing in the issue of a local paper dated May 5, 1920 under the caption "For the Benefit of the Public," and which was signed by one Ed. G. Howard, has been recently brought to my attention. I am therefore writing to ask if you will allow space in your publication for the following: My good friend Howard seems to have a suspicious spirit against the Tulsa Star and myself, judging from the article above mentioned, I take the greatest pleasure in hereby giving the brother a hunch that "when he is in deep water, to keep his muth shut." The article alluded to by Mr. Howard that appeared in the Tulsa Star has since been forgotten by the general public, as the principal of the subject will be forgotten before many suns. Mr. Howard attempts to deceive the public in his statement alleging that Mr. J. T. Presley authorized him to register voters in a sense that wound mean that he was thereby deputized by Mr. Presley with authority to register outside of the place which had been certified by the County Registers and he unminds fully discredits his denial by stating in the article which appeared in the issue of May 5th of a local newspaper. Heretofore I have not attempted to inform the public as to my knowledge concerning the matter, but since Mr. Howard has so falsely misrepresented the facts in the premises, I therefore feel that I should speak. It was the day after the Registration had been declared closed by the County Registrar, that Mr. Henry Pack inquired of me if Mr. Howard was ever appointed as Registrar for Precinct No. 23, and informed me that he had noticed a registration book in the Republican Headquarters of which Mr. Howard was in charge, that had been all used with the exception of one or two sheets. Then I went to Mr. Presley and asked him if he knew that Mr. Howard was in possession of such a book, and Mr. Presley's reply was: "No, if he is in possession of such book he is evidently up to something crooked." Taken I made to something crooked." Mr. Howard's right to register or possess the book and found through the office of the County Registrar, Mr. Vernon Seaman, that he did not. Mr. Pack stated that he went into Mr. Howard's office, after first telling us that Mr. Howard was in possession of the registration book with the aim of obtaining it as evidence, but that he found that it had been removed. Later in the evening, Mr. Presley and I found Mr. Howard dining at the Red Wing Cafe and asked him if he had a registration book in his' office or possession, and Mr. Howard said: "No, I have no book, and I know absolutely nothing about any book except these you have here in the cafe." On the Monday following, Mr. Howard informed me that he had possessed a registration book as had been described by Mr. Pack, and also stated that Mr. Presley had authorized him to register with --- the part of wisdom for the members to go slow about signing a petition on an amendment to the con- 6 or 10 mills upon all taxable s.

It very tempt funds are to be raised, and then as the interests of the Colored these funds are to be distributed funds, as "already provided for the Star gets off.

They the Negro schools of Oklahoma as masculated as to be unworthy of of our constitution are entitled all opponents of "Negro Educa- ded the spectacle of drafting laws cloored children which compel them in of the framers was not to elimi- out rather to perpetuate it. full authority. The truth is, if Mr. Howard had at any time been authorized by Mr. Presley to register there would never have been any denial on the part of Mr. Howard when asked if he had registration books in his possession. Mr. Howard, states that in a former issue of a local newspaper that I had alleged that it was due to my strenuous efforts that Precinct No. 23 went Democratic. Understand me, Mr. Howard, in the language of the Immortal Shakespear, that is an odious D——n lie! I have never asked any newspaper or any person employed by any newspaper to say one word for, or concerning me, nor has any publication ever published even a suggestion of mine I think you are mistaken Brother Howard, when you say that Mr. Presley's Special Registrar made it his business to register all the law violators. Do you recall that he did not register you? I am not certain that you meant for me to answer your inquiry about who the voters were that so valiantly supported the Democratic Candidates at the last election, but I take the greatest pleasure in explaining to you that there was not one among them as I recall, whose record is not as good as your own. Seems that you should remember that quite a number of Democrats in this precinct and out of it for that matter were hauled in "Baby" Henderson's automobile which you have in your possession, and several other cars to the Republican meetings to cast their votes for you or for Republican Central Committeeemen, and if you have forgotten about the incident, probably Mr. Gabe can inform you, for I am certain that he must remember since it was lie whom you defeated for the Republican Central Committeeenship with the votes of some of those whom you would now denounce. My action in the matter of Mr. Howard's fraudulent practices during the recent registration was prompted by the fact that it was my duty as the Democratic Central Committeeman in and for Pricin't No. 23 to protect the interests of the Democratic party. The election has passed, and I do not see any need for "Mud slinging" and ill feeling, yet, if that is the proper ideals in the minds of some of my good friends (?), keep it up, and "By Gosh" we will go some. Mr. Howard seems to be suffering with a convulsive attack of the brains, and unless something happens, a great calamity will occur in the seat of his consciousness. I wonder if Mr. Howard would like for the public to know that he had so little confidence in his own ability to spell and compose an article that it was necessary for him to take his original which appeared in a local newspaper dated May 5th, 1920 to the office of Mr. C. E. Corbett, an attorney at law, for revision, and since Mr. Howard is so much interested in benefiting the public for uncovering the short comings of others, I might resolve to publish a copy of the original to the article presented, by him for revision to Attorney C. E. Corbett, as was obtained by the scribe from the handwriting of Mr. Howard, which was obtained from the original copy while in the office of Mr. Corbett, and let the public benefit if they can, from the ravess, lines of ungrammatical express --- REFRIGE Are Ready for Let Us Figure With FURN E.

Money, Money, Money, Who's Got the Money? (Special to Tulsa Star) LOS ANGELES, Cal., May 15—The result of the recent republican presidential primary in which Senator Hiram Johnson overwhelmingly defeated Herbert Hoover has been to bring on charges and recriminations on both sides of an excessive expenditure of money. The campaign manager of Senator Johnson in his retort to the charge of Hoover's manager asserts that Hoover on the day of the primary hired hundreds of automobiles at $25 per day. He further alleges that Hoover's headquarters on the next day after the primary resembled the pay day scene of a large industrial plant employing thousands of laborers. He says in one hour over 600 workers were paid from $4.60 to $50, for services and that paying off for several hundred had to be put off until the second day after the primary. On the other hand Senator Johnson says it was unnecessary for him to spend any money. Mo. Republican League Squabble (Star News Service) ST.
