VOLUME X
Pythia
Strong Effort Will Be Made to Save Lives of Condemned Race Men
Sentenced to Die As Outcome of the Elaine, (Ark.) Riot.
At the request of the Pythians of Arkansas, Supreme Chancellor, S. W. Green of the Knights of Pythia made a personal investigation of the cases of the men convicted in connection of the Elaine riot and spent a day with the twelve condemned men in their cells. Among that number he found three brave Knights condemned to die and eight other Knights serving sentences from twenty-one years in the Arkansas State Penitentiary.
The Supreme Chancellor says "these Brave Knights must not suffer and die without giving them a chance to establish their innocence."
After consulting with the attorneys of the convicted men Sir Green has authorized all the Grand Lodges of Knight of Pythias of N. A., S. A., E., A., A., and A., to take up the assisting in financing the necessary steps to secure justice for the condemned men. Other plans are well under way to save these men and with the Pythian Order actively aiding the attorneys of the condemned men, the convicted men will be able to prove their innocence.
In Oklahoma, two years ago, R. Wardlow a member of the Pythian Order was placed on trial in Bartlesville and if it had not been for the prompt and immediate steps that the Grand Chancellor, Dr. Wickham, took in giving Wardolw able counsel in the person of Grand Attorney, E. T. Barbour, of El Reno, Okla., and and Attorney W. H. Twine of Muskogee, Okla., Wardlow would have been electrocuted for killing the Chief of Police of Dewey, Okla., in self defense. The Pythian Grand Lodge of Oklahoma as it rallied behind Wardolw to enable him to receive a "square deal" in the Oklahoma Courts, will render every assistance possible to Supreme Chancellor Green necessary to secure justice for the mer convicted outrageously in the Arkansas matter.
Distinguished Visitor Coming to Tulsa
Supreme Chancellor S. W. Green
To Be A Guest of the Oklahoma
Grand Lodge K. of
P. In Tulsa, Okla.
The city of Tulsa will have among its many guests during the Pythian Grand Lodge, Supreme Chancellor S. W. Green of New Orleans, La., head of the largest Negro Fraternal Order in America. Sir Green is a recognized leader among all fraternities and towers head and shoulders above all others.
Being a delegate to the Republican Convention in Chicago last month, necessitated Sir Green having to cancel other important matters that he could visit the Oklahoma Grand Lodge Session in the Magic City of Tulsa.
Men of this calibre should be appreciated by the citizens of Tulsa and their visits should be made the essence of everything pertaining to hospitality and cordiality.

COLORED EDITOR FILES
FOR SECRETARY OF STATE
Harry Smith, Editor Cleveland Gazette And Father of Buckeye Anti-Lynching Law As-
(C星 News Service)
CLEVELAND, Ohio, June 30.—Political circles in the old Buckeye State have something else to talk about than the nomination of Senator Harding for the presidency. In fact it is almost an every day matter of occurrence for an Ohioian to be running for the presidency, but for a Colored man to be running for the position of Secretary of State is entirely unusual and out of the ordinary. Just such a situation has arisen through the filing of the Hon. Harry Smith, the intrepid editor of the Cleveland Gazette for the Republican nomination for the Secretary of State. Editor Smith was a member of the lower house of the Ohio Legislature for three terms during which time he conceived and had adopted legislation bearing on lynching and evil rights of his people. During his service as representative, such Ohioans as ex-Governor Willis, and ex-Congressman Cole, who now aspires for Governor, were his colleagues. It is quite natural for "Harry", for that is the love name by which he is known everywhere, to break the ice in this candidacy for Secretary of State, and the beauty of it all is that he is fitted in every inch to fill the position with distinguished credit.

Attorney Corbett Selected as Prominent Speaker at Elk Celebration
(Star News Service)
MUSKOGEE, Okla., June 30.—Attorney Corbett, formerly of Tulsa and now of Muskogee, Exalted Ruler of Cosmopolitan Lodge No. 247, I. B. P. O. E. of Tulsa, has been chosen to respond to the welcoming address of Mayor James Cowgill who is representative of the Chamber of Commerce of Kansas City, Mo., is to welcome the Elks of the U. S. at their National Convention to be held during the week of August 22, 1920. Among the other speakers of welcome that Exalted Ruler Corbett is to follow are Gov. Henry J. Allen, (probably), Editor N. C. Crews, Sun, and Hon. Burris Jenkins, editor of Kansas City Post. Our Oklahoma representative Attorney Corbett, is rapidly attaining a national reputation as an orator, and his address on this occasion is most likely to gain him additional fame.
ROBERT HILL OUT ON BOND
Charged With Impersonating Officer Freed At Kansas City.
TOPEKA, Kan., June 29.—Robert Hill, charged with impersonating a federal officer, was released on $2,000 bond today from the Shawnee county jail. He had been held here since last January when an attempt was made to have him extradited to Arkansas on a charge of inciting riots. Governor Allen refused and he has since been held on the federal charge. His bond stipulated that he must remain within the jurisdiction of the United States district court for Kansas until trial on October 11.
COMMISSIONER WOODEN
OUT FOR RE-ELECTION
Ex-Mayor Has Many Good Friends Among Colored People.
Among th aspirants for county officers to appear before the voters of Tulsa in the August primary, is F. M. Wooden, present incumbent in the office of County Commissioner.
Mr. Wooden was for several years Mayor of Tulsa and is well known to most of the Colored people of, this city, among whom he has many good friends. He is generally considered an easy winner.
Bartholomew Denied Writ
The state supreme court denied the writ of Mandamus sought by J.W. Bartholomew, of Midmi, Repubcan, who endeavored to compel W.C. McAlister, secretary of the state election board, to accept his filing as candidate for judge of the 28th judicial district. This ocision sets at rest the question of the tenure of office of judicial appointees of Governor Robertson, holding that they shall serve until their successors are elected in 1922.
DR. WHICKHAM HAS MADE GOOD
DR. CHAS. B. WICKHAM.
The coming Grand Lodge Session of the Knights of Pythias will be the largest Race meeting held in Tulsa. That it will be so is due to the tigable efforts of Grand Chancellor Chas. B. Wickham, who is leaving no stones unturned towards making the Tulsa Session the greatest meeting of the Pythians and the largest meeting ever held in Tulsa. The successful upgrowth of the Pythian Order of Oklahoma is due to the keen business foresight and efficient management of Dr. Wickham. The large increase of membership is due to the fact that Grand Chancellor Wickham has at all times and in all weather with all his zeal and energies labored incessantly, traveled unremittingly in the interest of his various lodges. When Grand Chancellor Wickham was placed in charge of the Pythian Order on July 1st, 1916,—48 months ago, the order was $6,000 in debt and with a small membership. Today, the Pythian Order stands far above any indebtedness and has a very creditable banking balance.
Since Dr. Wickham has been Grand Chancellor, he has paid to the Pythian Widows and Orphans, the sum of $25,375.00 and has also paid the sum of $5,750.00 to the various local lodges enabling them to bury their deceased members very fittingly. Making a total of $31,125.00 paid by Dr. Wickham in forty-eight months to the Widows, Orphans and lodges. This sum paid out would average a monthly payment of $648.43 per month paid to the Race.
In addition to having paid this large sum of money having liquidated all indebtedness, the reports at the coming Grand Lodge will show a splendid balance of $17,000.00 on hand. The Order of Pythians in Oklahoma does not owe a solitary death claim.
In addition to the remarkable work done by Grand Chancellor Wickham financing the Order of Knights of Pythias mendtion should be made of the proposed Pythian Temple that will be constructed in Oklahoma in the near future. At this forthcoming session a very tangible and definite plan will be placed before the membership of the Grand Lodge.
The Pythians of Oklahoma are to be congratulated in having at its head Dr. Chas. B. Wickham, who has given all his time and talent uncomplainingly and unselfishly to the Pythian Order a Success. Dr. Wickham ranks among the leading physicians of the State. During the late war he was placed in charge of the Veneral work in the city of Tulsa and upon the conclusion of the same was warmly commended by the authorities of Washington, D. C. The citizens of Tulsa will likewise remember that when the dreaded influenza epidem
ic began to rage, ExMayor Hebbard then Mayor, wired Dr. Wickham to hurry back to Tulsa from his lodge work to take charge of the Colored Influenza Hospital for the poor of the city. Dr. Wickham served faithfully during this epidemic and gave freely his time and talent to the poor of Tulsa with ut remuneration. His work in the influenza campaign was very highly commanded for its excellence and also because Dr. Wickham was big-hearted enough to give all his time free to the poor of his race.
As Chairman of the Washington Branch Red Cross Tulsa Chapter, Dr. Wickham contributed his home for all business and work meetings of the organization and held his motor car at the disposal of the Red Cross workers. It was by his uniting efforts that the Tulsa Branch of the Red Cross stood second to none. The amount and character of work done under his supervision was surprisingly great and caused special mention by Mrs Coleman, General Chairman of the County Red Cross Work.
Last month Grand Chancellor Wickham was the honored guest of the Texas Pythian Grand Lodge and on the Wednesday afternoon session in his special address to the Texas Grand Lodge, Dr. Wickham electrified his listeners by his simplicity, earnestness of eloquence and direct appeal to the hearts of his colleagues, imbueing them with a Pythian Grace.
Men of the Race who give their time, who make sacrifices for the interest of their people without remuneration and only out of the fulness of their hearts on account of their love for their people ought to be commended and any order and the Race should be congratulated for having Dr. Chas. B. Wickham

SOME FACTS ABOUT
THE PHILIPPINES
The Filipino people number 10,350,640 of which 9,495,272 are Christians, and only nine per cent non-Christians.
They have been Christians for 300 years, and have a culture and refinement that will compare very favorably with that of other nations.
The University of Santo Tomas is 25 years older than Harvard. English is taught exclusively in the Philippine schools. Two million natives now speak English fluently, and there are 700,000 English speaking children in the public schools. It is destined to be the national language.
Seventy per cent of the inhabitants of the Philippines over 10 years of age, according to a census just completed, are literate. This is a higher percentage of literacy than that of any South American country, higher than that of Spain, and higher than that of any of the new republics of Europe whose independence is being guaranteed by the Allies.
The Fitipino people are unanimous in their desire for independence. Whenever they are called upon to deposit their ballots they have always ratified this aspiration. At every session before adjournment their representatives in the Legislature reiterate their faith in the principles of liberty and the independence of the Filipino people.
There are only 6,684 Japanese in the Philippines. There are 124,000 Japanese in California alone, or 19 times as many as in the entire Philippine archipelago.
A special delegation of Filipinos, officially representing the Filipino people, are attending the two national conventions, seeking an endorsement of the Filipino desire for independence in the platforms. Their arguments, briefly stated, are as follows:
First: That the American Declaration of Independence declares that governments derive their just powers from the consent of the governed:
Second: That the American Congress, in the Jones law, solemly promised the Filipinos independence upon the establishment of a stable government, and that their claim that the said stable government is now in existence in the Islands has been officially confirmed by America's own representatives there; and Third: That America went before the world in the recent war as the avowed champion of "self determination," American soldiers having been told it was one of the things they were fighting and dying for.
MARATHON BETWEEN
IVORY SOAP AND PULL-
MAN CAR MONEY
Money Was Written in Box-Car Letters All Over Late Republica Convention.
(Star News Service)
CHICAGO, Ill June 30—Oswald Garrison Villard, editor of Nation and the great champion of the rights of our Group, through the influence of the N. A. A. C. P., in a recent issue of his journal, writes as follows concerning the proceedings of the late republican convention, which nominated Harding and Coolidge for president and vice president;
"Aside from the fight to keep the party from promising to ratify the peace treaty with its reservations the only question of interest during the week was whether Ivory Soap money or Pullman Car money would carry off the nomination. Despite many signs to the contrary, many of the veteran correspondents here refused to believe that there was ever any real chance of Wood or Lowden winning the fight. On Monday night at the Johnson rally in the Auditorium a Lowden sympathizer interrupted Senator Borah in favor of Lowden. Before the Senator could answer, another man called out: "Did you get two thousand five hundred dollars to say that?" During the convention, on one ballot the Missouri delegation declared its unreadiness to vote. "Give 'em time," called a spectator, "they are counting the cash." Not even the Old Guard would have dared to go into a campaign in which things like this would have been said every time a meeting was had on behalf of either Lowden or Wood. The thing was just a bit too raw.
But, as it was, money was written all over the convention. It would have been impossible to throw a stone into any group of men without hitting a banker. One wondered after a visit to the Blackstone how business could be going on in Wall Street when so many of its most distinguished figures were in Chicago. No one will of course deny that a banker has as much right as anybody to attend a party convention, but if one is aware of the feeling abroad as to relationship between bankers and political campaigns, it is undoubtedly the part of political wisdom not to have every single firm on State or Wall Street too conspicuously represented or by too many partners. Special privilege.
big business, great wealth was everywhere in evidence in the gathering. There was not a man anywhere who looked as if he earned his living by the sweat of his brow, though there were farmer delegates. But this was emphatically a gathering of those to whom the gods have dispensed the favors of the earth, and the leaders showed it by the indifference with which they greeted the demands of labor and farmers.

Race Men Approve A. F. L.
WASRINGTON, D. C., June 30
The report that the American Federation of Labor in its annual convention in Montreal wiped out the color line has been received with much favor among workers here, who, however, admit that they desire to await developments. Industrially, if carried out, this will mean much to Negro workers, who it was declared must be given full and equal membership with white men. It is said that this action came at the end of a stormy session, which nearly ended in a "race war" between delegates from the Southern states and the Negroes and their sympathizers.
New Jersyians Up In Armsa
(A. N. P. Service)
NEWARK, N. J., June 30—Rumors are flying thick and fast that the Negroes of the state are about to begin a fight for substantial recognition at the hands of the republicans. considerable number of these men are threatening to transfer their allegiance to the democrats if they are not given the recognition they say is their right. There is another branch of the Colored men who aver that the proper way to get the matter is to organize a state convention at which the people may be given the chance to pick out the leaders they desire to make the fight for recognition. These men say that the "old bunch" are merely seeking to exploit the rank and file as to suit their own selfish ends.
REPUBLICAN PLATFORM
FOUND WANTING
Group Leaders Threaten to Form A "Third Party."
(A. N. P. Service)
CHICAGO, Ill., June 30.—Third Party talk continues to interest a considerable number of Colored men who seem to be unsatisfied with the disinclination of the Republican Party to come flat-footed on the "race issues" in its platform. The callof the "Forty-Eight" is attracting attention among these dissatisfied and a movement is said to be on top looking to the issuance of a "call to Negroes who would be free" which will include the "Third Party Call."

Paul Laurence Dunbar Honored.
WASHINGTON, D. C., June 30. At the Dunbar High School a bust in bronze of the poet, Paul Laurence Dunbar, by May Howard Jackson of this city, has lately been given permanent place. Mrs. Jackson was given a commission to execute this protrait by the students of the school and considers it one of her most successful achievements. Some have declared it a most excellent likeness, but whether it actually resembles the poet or not, it undoubtedly possesses an unusually large measure of
THE TULSA STAR. Saturday, July 3. 1920
To these papers and others of like quality the Negroes are going for the news, for tr stworthy reports of "Negro uprisings," "Negro riols"—so-called by the white press—and lynchings, for wrathful denunciation of them. The Colored press is now the rival of Colored pulpit influence. There are signs that it is coming into the first place. The Negro appreciates his newly discovered Fourth Estate.
Reading Between the Lines$^{8}$. The white people must give the Colored people credit for more percipiency than we are wont to do. They have quite as good a facility as we for reading between the lines, for taking the force of an innuendo, for perceiving the point of a bit of mild irony or gentle sarcasm. Vague and indirect pronouncements, perfectly harmless in appearance to us, are hand grenades to them. Editorial reticence they well understand to mean "safety first for the editor, a longer career of usefulness."

White Virginia Professor Finds the Press Is Displacing Ignorant Church Pulit Influence.
(Star News Service)
ST. LOUIS, Mo., June 25.—Prof. Robert T. Kerlin, one of the instructors of Virginia Military Institute, Lexington, Va. has been making a study of Colored Journalism, and the result of his investigations is shown by a recent article written by him and published in The Mirror of this city, of which Marion Reedy is editor. The following extract indicates Prof. Kerlin's views:
"The Negroes' subscription to the liberty loans, to Red Cross funds, and the whole list, they quote as evidence of their patriotism and spirit in the country's time of need. It is a record of which they are justly proud. They make it the basis of democratic demands, quite naturally. Of the valor of their troops overseas they make the same argument. Those troops fought with endurance and heroism at Chateau Thierry and in the Argonne, and mingled their blood with that of the white soldiers in the dust of France. Those troops labored in the service of Supplies at Bordeaux and Brest without counting the hours, counting only the loss to our cause of any slacking on their part. They buried the soldier dead—the most repellant task of the war—at Belleau Wood and Romainge. This, while lynchings were being reported in their papers from home. Comparisons were inevitably made between Americans and Germans.
It is this story that has embittered the Negro. It is this story that has given new potency to his newspaper. For Information and Guidance. There is no lack of evidence that the Negroes are going to their own

Every paper has correspondents
in all of its territory, and in states beyond that might be supposed to be its territory. There are also news agencies. The most important of these by far is the Associated Negro Press. Through special correspondents in every city of the country it gathers the racial news and sends this out regularly to its large membership. About seventy-five papers receive these communications directly, but all get it sooner or later. Nothing racial escapes the Argus-eyed Colored press.

DETROIT, Mich., June 30.—One thousand Negroes are coming into Detroit every week. This is the estimate of Forester B. Washington who is making a comprehensive survey of the social and industrial conditions among the large number of these people who now are lodged in this city. Washington's survey also reveals that the living conditions in which these emigrants are forced to abide are wretched, in the greater instances, and constitute a health menace that should be remided at once. He advocates the erection of workmen's homes in large numbers as one of the means of solution.

MANY OUT OF TOWN VISITORS TO ATTEND SESSION
Meeting of K. of P. Grand Lodge in Tulsa to Be Big Event of Year
Never before have the Colored people of Tulsa looked forward to the coming of any event with more interest than is being manifested in the forthcoming meeting of the K. of P. Grand Lodge in this city July 20, 21 and 22 inclusive.
The meeting of the Pythians in Tulsa this year is made the more interesting because of the inter-state encampment of the K. of P. Uniform Rank here during the meeting of the Grand Lodge and will conduct a competitive drill contest involving more than 8700 in prizes.
A home company of the Uniform Rank will enter the contest with a determination to pluck some of the prizes. This will be the first time in the history if the state that Tulsa or any other city in the state has been selected for an inter-state encampment of the Uniform Rank and this in itself is enough to justify the pride Tulsa feels in having the honor of entertaining the K. of P. Grand Lodge. Ofcourse Tulsa will live up to her reputation in receiving and entertaining these distinguished visitors. No one expects otherwise. It's up to every Tulsaan to help make this event a complete success. Every one who can possibly take one delegate or more should notify Dr. Wickham at once.
BON. W. S. WILLS, GRAND
CHANCELLOR OF TEXAS
Among the Visitors of the Oklahoma K. of P. Grand Lodge.
Among the many visitors coming to the Grand Lodge of Pythians here in Tulisa on July 20th, 21st and 22nd, is Hon. W. S. Willis of Waco, Texas, Grand Chancellor of the State of Texas and one of the leading lights of the Pythian firmament nationality. During the past year of service in the Pythian Order of Texas, Sir Willis has increased the membership of his organization from 6,000 to 13,001 and financed the resources of his organization in an excellent manner that it enabled the Texas Grand Lodge to meet all its financial obligations and have a surplus of $62,000.00 left. Dr. Claude M. Wade of Hot Springs, Ark., and a member of the Supreme Grand Lodge Pythian Temple and Sanitarium Commission writes that he is arranging to visit Tulisa for the Pythian Grand Lodge Session.
Dr. Wade is an authority on matters pertaining to the efficiency of the use and application of the Hot Springs, Ark., waters in the treatment of the various diseases. Many of Dr. Wade's former patients and friends will be well pleased to see the Doctor's smiling face in Tulsa, Okla.

If the early morning breeze, so invigorating from 4 to 6 a. m, should waft intrancing strains of music through the open windows, early Monday morning and arouse you from a slumber for which you probably would gladly give much of your worldly possessions to prolong, as will surely be the case with those who live in the 600 blocks on East Archer, just remember it will be the Elks and Daughters of Cosmopolitan Temple taking an early morning glide over the waxed floor of the Masonic hall, and maybe it will add to your mental comfort to know that many of them may have remained up all night in order to be present at a Sunrise Dance which is scheduled to start sometime between 4 and 5 a. m. and last until 8 a. m.
The ball has been well advertised and is attracting a deal of attraction.
"HOW TO KEEP YOUNG"
How to instantly have a beautiful Brown skin. It changes a dingy complexion into a Brown-Skin immediately. It's impossible to detect it and gives the skin that Brown-Skin appearance and baby softness everybody raves about. You put it on in the morning and it stays there all day, perspiration does not effect it, and is a wonderful tonic for the skin, makes the skin transparent, smooth and velvety. It is absolutely harmless and will not produce or stimulate a growth of hair. Calcimine liquid sold by druggist accept nothing else then you will not be disappointed.

RICHARD J, HILL,
When a long time lease ends, and
the buildings erected on: it are in
a decayed condition, and a new
owner comes into possession with
the intention of erecting new build-
‘ings, his first acts are to tear down
and remove the old and clear. the
lot for the building of the new
structure, * The old) order or. the
old world ended in 1914, and exact-
ly on time the work of removing
the old order began and. still. pro-
kresses, ‘The Great King of Kings
and the Lord of Lords is directing
this work, and he is removing the
old preparatory to the erection of
the new and ‘righteous order of
things, The prophet of the Lord,!
having in mind this very time sei
the kings of the earth would be
Making a last desperate stand to!
hold their possession, wrote: “And|
in the days of these kings shall the
God of Heaven set up a kingdom,
which shall never be destroyed:
and the kingdom shall not be left
to other people, but it shall break
in pieces and ‘consume all these
Kingdoms, and it shall stand. for
ever.” Dank 2: 44.
We submit that the evidence is
conclusive to the reasonable mind |
who believes in the seriptures, that
the world bas ended; that the old
order is passing away and the new
is coming in; and if that be true,
then this must mark the dawning
of a new and better day; it: must
mart the beginning days of the
Golden Age, and of necessity must
mark the time for the fulfillment of
the great biblical promises that
Jehovah hay made for the blessing
of mankind with life, liberty and
happiness.
“Verily, verily, 1 say unto you,
if a man keep niy saying, he shall
never die.” John 8: 51 |
The inquiring mind — naturally
asks: “Why should man. see death |
at all? Is is not possible for him!

kind, the whole race ultimately
would go into death and there
would be no resurrection—no hope
for them in the future, God pr
inived, however, that he would re
deem man from death, ‘Through
the prophet he said; “f will ran
som them from the power of the
grave; Twill redeem them from
death.” Hosea 13:14
Since a perfect man had sinned
ind brought death upon the race,
nothing but the life of a Serfect
man could satisfy that judgment;
and s.nee all of the human race
was imperfect, therefore “None of
them could by any means redeem
his brother, nor give to God a ran-
som for him.” Psa. 49: 7.
The death and resurrection of
Jesus provided a ransom or pur-

RICHARD J. HILL
concerning the end of the world, we
quote again the words of the Mas-
ter: “And the nations were angry,
and thy wrath is come, and the
time of the dead that they should
be judged, and that thou shouldst
give reward unto thy servants and
prophets, and to the Saints, and to
them that fear thy name.” (Rev
11: 18). Clearly, then, many of
these great truths are now due to
be understood because, the old. or-
der is passing away and the new
order is coming in. Jesus taught,
and everyone of his diciples empha-
sized, his second coming and the
establishment of his kingdom. One
of them reffering to that glorious.
time, wrote: “Times of refreshing
shall come from the face of the
Lord (Jehovah), and he shall send
Jesus Christ, which before was
preached unto you whom the heav-
ens must retain until the times of
restitution of all. things, which
God hath spoken by the mouth of
all His Holy prophets since the
world began.” (Acts. 3: 19-21).
Therefore, the time must come when
there shall be offered Yo mankind.
the blessings of being restored to
the condition that Adam enjoyed
before he sinned. Namely, perfec-
tion of body and cf ind, and per-
fection of conditions surrounding
him, insuring his peace and last-
ing happiness,
Are we near the fulfilment of
that prophecy? Note again, the
answer of Jesus concerning the end
of the world: “For then shall there
be great tribulation, such as was
not since the beginning of the
world to this time, no, nor ever
shall be, Ard except those — days
should be shortened, there should
be no flesh saved, but for the elect’s
sake, those days shall be shorten-
nd” Matt, 24: 21-22,
This saying Jesus is subject to
mnly one interpretation; namely;
hat the old order will completely
vass away by the greatest time o1
rouble the world has ever known;
hat there will never be another
uch time of trouble; that it will be
o great that all the humane race
vould perish from the earth unless
he Lord would eause it to be short-
‘ned, for his clect’s sake, namely,
hose whom he has elected or tak-
n out of the world—the Lord Jes-
is and the true Christians—for the
ake of such those days will be
hortened and will therefore result
n many human beings _ passing
hrough this time of trouble with-
uit dying. Why should the Lord
wermit any to escape death in that
ime of trouble unless he expected
0 do them some good? Why say
or the clect’s sake, that he is: go-
ng to shorten the time, and thus
ave many from death? There can
e but one conclusion, The elect
onstitute the seed of Abraham ac-
ording to the promise, through
hich blessings shall be minister-
d to the remainder of mankind.
herefore, God would spare some
) pass throiigh this time of trouble
wit the elects might begin the re|
onstruction work of the human
amily, first’ with those who re-
ined on earth, |
Again refering to the great time
F trouble that is now afflicting!
ankind, the prophet of the Lord,
rote: “And it shall come to pass.
tin all the land, saith the Lord, =
two parts therein shall be cut off
and.die; but the third shall be left
therein. And 1 will bring the third
part through the fire (The fire
rouble), and will refine them as
silver is refined, and will try them
as gold is tried; they shall call on
my name, and 1 wil hear them; I
will say, it is my people; and they
shall say, the Lord is my. God.”
(Zachariah 13: 8, 9). Why bring a
part of the people through the firy
trouble unless it is God's purpose
to give them a chance to accept the
blessings that shall be ministered
through Christ? Clearly this is the
purpose; for he says these will hear
him and will become his people
and be obedient to him.
Again, the prophet of the Lord,
speaking concerning those who
love rightousness in this time, said:
“Blessed is he that considereth the
poor; the Lord will deliver him in_
the time of trouble. ‘The Lord will
preserve him and keep him alive,|
and he skall be blessed upon the:
earth (not heaven); and thou wilt
not deliver him unto the — will of
his enemies.” (Psa, 41: 1, 2). This
is a wonderful incentive’ for men
in this hour of great disturbance
ind distress to be considerate of
the poor and afflicted, to deal right-
ously with their neighbors, to live
in peace and honor the Lord, Such
ure the ones that are promised de-
liverance in the time of trouble,
Those who seek meekness and
rightousness and avoid turmoils are
especially promised protection int

TULSA. OKLAHOMA
came death, so by man (Christ Jesus) came also the resurrection of the dead. For as all in Adam died, even so in Christ shall be made alive. But every man in his own order." (1st Cor. 15: 20-23). The Apostle then proceeds to show that the Messiah "Must reign until he hath put all enemies under his foot. The last enemy that shall be destroyed is death."
It will be during the reign of the glorious Messiah that the following text will be fully realized: "If a man keep my sayings, he shall never see death." It cannot be said that man, in the true sense, lives until he has a legal right to live, and the legal right to live will come to him only when it is offered as a gracious gift through Christ Jesus, as the Apostle stipulates. (Rom. 6: 23; 5: 18, 19). Jesus declared: "And whosoever liveth and believeth in me shall never die." (John 11: 26). This Scripture must have a fulfillment, and the time for the beginning of its fulfillment is the beginning of restitution times, which commence with the reign of the Messiah. The old order being dead and passing away, and the new coming in, there are millions of persons on this earth now who will pass through that trouble and who obeying the Lord's rightous rules shall never die.
The prophet Job has given us a beautiful picture of this arrangement for the restoration of mankind. He describes a man who is aged and sick; and there is brought to him a knowledge of the great ransom. He believes and accepts the Lord's teaching and obeys the righteous rules and is restored to his youth, and his flesh becomes fresher than that of a child. Mark this beautiful Scripture: "He keepeth back his soul from the pit, and his life from perishing by the sword. He (man) is chastened also with pain upon his bed, and the multitudes of his bones with strong pain; so that his life abhoreth bread and his soul dainty meat. His flesh is consumed away that it

WORLD IS ENDED; MILLIONS

Referring again to the same great stress upon the world and what shall follow thereafter, the prophet of Jehovah said: "Wait ye, upon me, saith the Lord, until the day that I rise up to the pray; for my determination is to gather the nations together, that I may assemble the Kingdoms, to pour upon them mine indignation, even all my fierce anger; for all the earth shall be devoured with the fire of my jealousy. For then will I turn to the people a pure message, that they may call upon the name of the Lord to serve him with one consent." (Zephaniah 3: 8, 9). Why turn to the people a pure message after this time of trouble is over, unless God intends that the people should profit by it?
Many children have been left fatherless in the recent war and revolution, and with comfort the Lord's prophete says: "Leave thy fatherless children I will preserve them alive; and let thy widows trust in me." Jeremiah 49: 11.
After those who pass through the time of trouble have been ministered unto and given the opportunities of blessings by the Messiah, then those who have slept in their graves in death shall be awakened and given knowledge of the truth. That will be their "Due time" to hear the message concerning the Ransom. "Marvel not, at this, for the hour is coming in which all in their graves shall hear his (Christ Jesus) voice and shall come forth; they that have done good unto a resurrection of life and they that have done evil unto a resurrection by judgment." (John 5: 28, 29 Revised Version). "There shall be a resurrection of the dead, both of the just and unjust." (Acts 24: 15). "Christ is risen from the dead and become the first fruits of them that slept. For since by man (Adam)

cannot be seen; and his bones that were not seen stuck out. Yea, his soul draweth near unto the grave, and his life to the destroyers. If there be a messenger with him, an interpreter, one among a thousand to show unto man his uprightness; then he (the Lord is gracious unto him, and saith, deliver him from going down to the pit: I, (says the man) have found a ransom. His flesh shall become fresher than a child's; he shall return to the days of his youth. He shall pray unto God and he will be favorable unto him; he shall see his face with joy; for he will render unto man his righteousness." Job 33: 18-27
Saint John, the follower of the Lord Jesus, was convicted of the alleged crime of sedition and banished to the Isle of Patmos. While he was there as a convict in a rock quarry, the Lord visited him and gave him a wonderful mental vision of the blessings to come. Saint John saw the incoming of the Golden Age, and sublimely described it thus: "And I saw a new heaven and new earth for the first heaven and the first earth were passed away and there was no more sea and I John saw the Holy City, the New Jerusalem coming down from God out of Heaven, prepared as a bride adorned for her husband. And I heard a great voice out of Heaven, saying: 'Behold the tabernacle of God is with men (on earth not in heaven) and He will dwell with them and they shall be his people, and God himself shall be with them and he their God. And God shall wipe all tears from their eyes; and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain; for the former things have passed away. And he that sat upon the throne said, 'behold, I will make all things new,' Rev. 21: 1-5.
In this glorious reign of Christ the great enemy of mankind, death will be destroyed. When there is no more death to ravage the human race the people of earth will live in joy, in happiness, in peace forever.

Catholics Honor African Martyrs
ROME, June 30.—The ceremony of the beatification of twenty-two Negroes, who died martyrts for the faith in Uganda under King Mwanga, was celebrated with great pomp in the Basilica of St. Peter's. Cardinals, Bishops and other richly gowned officials, with missionary priests worn by their labors in torrid climates, passed up the center of St. Peter's to receive the announcement of beatification from Pope Benedict.
During the afternoon the Pontiff descended to St. Peter's accompanied by the Cardinals to venerate the pictures and relics of these humble saints.

MEXICANS ISSUE
CALL FOR VILLA
Manifesto Is Made Public Declaring in Favor of Him.
ASK NEW GOVERNMENT
Sonora Plan Is Opposed—Ten Generals Including Villa's Chief Sign Paper.
(By the Associated Press.)
WASHINGTON, D. C., June 30. Declaring in favor of the restoration of the constitution of 1857 and describing Francisco Villa as "the only leader who disinterestedly and patriotically combats and will continue to combat for the welfare of the people and for the re-establishment of constitutional order." 10 generals, including Villa's chief of staff and more than fifty other officers and a number of civilians have issued a manifesto to the Mexican people announcing their position in the present Mexican situation. The manifesto, a copy of which reached Washington recently, was issued at Hacienda Salacies, district of Jiminez, Chihuahua. It states that "the Agua Prieta plan, which is to be the standard of the new liberal constitutional revolution, like that of Guadalupe, will be a source of discord for the future and in consequence will bring serious evil to the country."
It further states that the signers of the manifesto "want the reign of democracy; true government of the people, by the people and not that the succession of tyrants be sought by means of treason, intrigue, disloyalty, cowardice and crime, assassinating some to elevate someone else."
"Product of a new military coup" the same manifesto says, "the regime which intends to establish itself in the country, with the same passions, the same jealousies, the same ambitions and the same mistakes, will be impotent to restore peace in the republic."
The manifesto states that the Villistas endeavored to join the Sonora revolt at its inception, hoping that it shared the same ideals and principles as their own, but, it states, "unfortunately our good faith, our honesty and our patriotism have been met with intrigues, disloyalty and treachery, and with the most absolute disregard for justice that has been and still is ours."

"A Day in the Nation's Capital."
(Star News Service)
WASHINGTON, D. C., June 30. Avery interesting occurrence has been taking place in Washington during the past week. The Camera man of the Monumental Picture Corporation, recently organized by Lieut. J. Williams Clifford for the purpose of portraying in its true light the Negro's progress before the world, was photographing the many institutions of learning and places of business which stand as monuments to the achievement and progress of the Negro in the National Capital.
Among the scenes taken were the Howard University commencement and the Competitive Drill of the Washington High School cadets. This picture will be similar to the Pathe News, and it is hoped that it will be shown in every Colored theatre in the United States because of its inspirational and educational value.
Pawhuskans Entertain With Fish Fry.
A very delightful before-day party was enjoyed last week by the Messdames, W. M. Cherry, Edna Sterling and Missie Whitmore Lacey as the guests of Mr. and Mrs. James S. Mohair of Pawhuska. The party drove out before sunrise to the ranch of Mr. Barton Carter at Sand Creek and before noon the party had caught enough fish to furnish a banquet with plenty for all, which was served on the banks of the Creek. The enjoyable and delicious menu consisted of hot fried fish (fried on banks of the creek) and fried chicken. Mrs. Cherry was pronounced champion for catching the greatest number and Mr. Mohair for catching the largest. After the fish fry a good time was had boating.
"Dynamite Ed" Saved Many Lives8.
(Okla State News)
OKLAHOMA CITY, Okla. June 30.
—"Dynamite Ed" Perry of Coalgate, one of the fifteen republican candidates for the nomination as United States Senator to succeed F. P. Gore, was in conference with Oklahoma City friends last week. The G. O. P. fight for the senatorial nomination offers many unique political figures, Perry, who gained his cogmen "Dynamite Ed" when he threw a fifty pound charge of dynamite, to which was attached a burning fuse, from a railroad train near Atoka in territorial days, a G. O. P. leader with whom all the others had to reckon. Perry was host to more than 800 people en route to a territorial district convention. Dynamite was taken on the trip to salute the opposing forces as the special train approached Atoka. Carelessness resulted in the ignition of fuse to the entire fifty pounds of explosive in a baggage car. With rare presence of mine and remarkable nerve, Perry hurled the box from the car, slammed the door shut and by his action doubtedly saved many lives. Perry is a coal operator in the Coal gate field.

Results of Jim Craw Laws
DANVILLE, Ky., July 2.—"The
Torchlight of this city, makes editorial comment in its issue of last Tuesday on the recent decision of the United States Supreme Court upholding the power of a state to enact and enforce a "Jim Crow" law. It says in part, "This decision hurts business and in the end will work general hardship upon the whole people regardless of color or condition. It hurts business by perpetuating the discrimination and injustices that are slowly but surely driving the Negro population from the South. When the Negro leaves the South in large numbers the South experiences a shortage in man power. This shortage curtails the production of sugar cane, corn, cotton, lumber and rice. This curtailment of production and the output of raw materials appreciably lower the volume of business done. Southern planters and merchants become land poor, the land instead of producing the staples, grows up in weeds and jungles. These are the logical results of the action of Supreme Court in upholding "Jim Crow" laws.

FLIPPER-KEY-DAVIS U.
CLOSES SUCCESSFUL YEAR
President Green's Efficient Managemenl Places This School High in Educational Rank.
(Star News Service)
MUSKOGLE, Okaa., June 30.
The Flipper-Keys Summer School is progressing nicely with fair attendance under an excellent faculty. The location is most favorable for study.
Flipper-Keys University which has enjoyed a remarkable growth during the four years of its existence, achieved the greater part of its success during the past two years while under the presidency of the Rev. T. M. Greene was chosen to succeed Mr. J. B. Key, who resigned, and had the double work of looking after this institution and performing his duties as pastor of Ward's Chappel A. M. E. Church of this city. Either position was sufficient for one man alone, but with his unusual energy, push and splendid ability, both positions were filled with credit to both school and church.
Dr. Greene was ably assisted in the work by Prof. J. L. Jones, dean of the department of liberal arts and a talented faculty. Through the active co-operation of these forces, excellent work was achieved and advancement made along all lines. He had accepted the presidency with reluctance, and after having filled the position with the greatest possible efficiency, he leaves it as president occupying a higher status in the educational arena than when he took charge.

THE TULSA STAR. Saturday. July 3. 1920
Negroes were shot to death and two others hanged early this week in this county, it became known here today. They were wanted in connection with the killing of Deputy Sheriff C. F. McCormick last Saturday night.
Washington Giles and his brother name unknown, and who was accused of firing the shot that killed McCormick, were shot by pursuers late Tuesday afternoon near Diamond mound. The bodies of Jodie Gordon and Elijah Anderson were found Tuesday morning hanging from trees six miles east of Wharton.
Deputy Sheriff McCormick was shot to death Tuesday night when he went to the Giles home to arrest Wastington Giles on a minor charge, officers said.

Gore's Health Not Affected Seemingly.
(Okla, State News.)
OKLAHOMA CITY, Okla. June 30.—Those who appear to be determined to see that Senator Gore gets a "rap" at every opportunity, in condemnation for his alleged lack of representation of the sentiment of Oklahomaans in the senate during the war, found satisfaction in the adoption of scathing resolutions by the veterans of the Rainbow Division at its reunion at Tulsa. The resolutions were introduced at the meeting by Josiah Chatfield, secretary of the state organization. The resolutions, probably the most scathing that have yet been hurled at the junior senator, were adopted by unanimous vote, according to press dispatches from Tulsa. The veterans of the Rainbow Division will hold their 1921 reunion in Oklahoma City.
Moving Wheat Crop The Great Problem.
(Okla. State News).
OKLAHOMA CITY, Okla. June 30.
—R. E. Echols, members of the state corporation commission, returned the latter part of the week from a trip through the wheat belt where he was in conference with farmers, elevator men, threshers and railway officials, seeking to aid in the effort to solve the problem of moving the small grain crop. The car shortage problem is perhaps the most difficult to combat this season of any time in recent years. Railway men declare the situation is one that will require the most careful consideration and entire co-operation upon the part of all interested. In every instance possible efforts are being made to increase storage facilities both on the farm and in the towns and cities of the wheat belt.

Russell did not abandon the effort to secure the approximately 30,000 signatures until practically the last moment.

If you expect to make any changes during the year, by all means have an Astrologer point out the days and dates when the planets are favorable for your interests. These are critical times and you need counsel and advice as never before. If you have made errors in the past see that you do not make them in the future. There is no disputing the fact that the Astrologer can point out with remarkable accuracy and fortell coming events which are beyond the outer of the average mind to fore-
Surely you are interested in yourself and want to know more about your future. We send you a lengthy Astrological Reading covering the entire year; one that you can consult today and prepare for what is coming tomorrow. As long as your star of Destiny is favoring you, your affairs will run smooth and prosper, but when the planets are in evil aspect everything goes wrong, you then say you are having "bad" luck. Surely this has come to your notice. From the Astrologer's view the year 1920 will be the most eventful year in the world's history. Many a fortune will be made and lost. Therefore, when you have an important matter to decide, and are at a loss as to what is best to be done, it is only necessary to consult your annual forecast, which fully covers Business Matters, Change of Location, Speculation, Travel, Love

OUR POLITICAL FAITH
born equal and endowed with which are life, liberty and the purity. In the principles of true Democ- Thomas Jefferson, and without all times fighting for an honest principles to all men regardless
"All men are born equal and endowed with certain inalienable rights, among which are life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness." —Thomas Jefferson.
We believe in the principles of true Democracy as promulgated by the patriot, Thomas Jefferson, and without fear or favor, we will be found at all times fighting for an honest, impartial application of these principles to all men regardless of race or color.
OUR RELIGIOUS FAITH
To live as near as we can to our own conception of our duty to God and to or fellowmen; to do right and live right at all times as God has given us the conscience to see and feel it.
We believe man's greatest service to God may be rendered through honest, unselfish service to mankind.
BIG MEN
I've seen folks get all excited when some Big man chanced round-
"Why he's famous all about from Maine to Puget Sound"
My that nonesense! Let me tell you—"tis as plain as A to Z.—
He's just ordinary "human" all the same as you or me.
Don't care if he is all diked up in those gaudy folderals.
If the truth was known about it he's at home in overalls!
If those English "dogs" are shining—Bet they're hurting cause
they're new
And he's wished he had his old ones with the toes all shining through
Don't give such fancy "eatins", I'll admit it's fine for style
But when one gets "sure nuff" hungry this will beat it by a mile—
Give him cornbread, beans and bacon, something that he's sure to like,
Somethin' that won't make him nervous, fearin' he can't eat jus right.
Treat him like you would a human, not a doll you are afraid to touch,
And for goodness sake, when talkin', please don't praise him overmuch.
For it's not a bit a credit to be hiked upon a shelf—
All away from everybody, gets so lonesome by yourself!
'Cause it's nice to be a genius and it's fine to have the wealth,
But it's glory to have happiness, companionship and health,
Be yourself in your own calling, for the best it can afford
Is the spirit of your presence and the honor of your word.
—EVA ALBERTA JESSYE.
IF YOU WATCH THE FELLOWS who are always hollering about Race Pride, and advising the masses of our people to spend their money with Race enterprises, to make places for our boys and girls, you will find among them some rank hypocrites, who do not practice what they preach. Open your eyes and look about you and when you have found the vultures take them at their word and foster real unassuming and impertentious RACE ENTERPRIZES that actually offer opportunities to our boys and girls. The worst enemy the Race has to contend with is that class of imposters who preach the doctrine of "Race Pride" while they are fleecing our people to build up enterprices where a Colored boy or Colored girl nat not get a job even as janitors. If these leaders and "Race Pride" preachers have a moral right to do this to "save money" or for any other reason, so have the struggling masses of our group a moral right to follow the example thus set. If we can not be truly RACE MEN let us stop sailing under false colors.
WE WHO LIVE IN TULSA, are more concerned (or should be) in the election of Congressman, State Legislators, County and City officials than we are in the election of the president. Especially does this apply to members of our group. If we use our ballets to better local conditions we then do ourselves and the nation a great service.
HAMON, OF BIBICAL FAME in his jealous zeal to see the destruction of a fellow being, built a gallows on which he hoped to see Mordica, a good, honest man, executed. But his envious, jealous, conniving, planning and plotting met a just reward when he himself was hanged thereon. And there are some modern Hamons who, if justice prevails, will meet the same fate.
WHATEVER THE CLERGY may think or say about lawyer Richard J. Hill, his doctrine appeals to thousands of people throughout the world and he is attracting a strong following among our group here. The old world is getting restless in her search for the Truth.
THREE HUNDRED AND FIFTY Colored democratic voters is certainly a strong opposition for the Tulsa County G. O. P. to overcome. In the County election, as in the city campaign, our fellows will toe the mark for the democratic ticket.
THE MEANEST FELLOW in the world is the scoundrel who polishes lies to bring strife between his fellowmen all the while himself posing as a neutral friend. Do you know him?
GOVERNOR COX of Ohio seems to be the popular favorite for the democratic nomination and may be the successful candidate. He is the logical man and ought to be nominated.
THE REPUBLICANS are kidding themselves into the belief that they can win in the County election this fall. But then Tulsa republicans are naturally dreamers.
AMONG OTHER THINGS Tulsa has a Cosmopolitan citizenship unsurpassed anywhere in the world. Won't you join us?
THE MAN who thinks he knows it all, is a fool, not worth trying to teach—in fact he is beyond teaching.
THE "GRAND OLD MAN" from Nebraska is making a strong fight, and a manly one, but the odds are against him.

LISTEN: I will make you wise happy and healthy.
If you are sick or unhappy, failing in business or unsuccessful in life, it is your fault and none other than yourself is to blame. "Keys to the Kingdom" is a dissertation of secret powers that will enable you, if properly understood and applied, to accomplish your desires, remove or conquer disease, in fact to occupy an enviable place in the world. They tell of that central point in the body where health is produced and controlled—This is the thing which overcomes disease and gives in its place perfect health. They tell of your connection with the "Mechanism," which when understandingly put in operation is the enemy of grief, trouble, fear, failure and unhappiness. The cost is but $10.00 and after you have them in your possession I am sure you would not part with them or the results obtained, for a large sum. We wish to place in your hands the means to constitute you a power in your community to accomplish an untold good, both to yourself and others. "Keys to the Kingdom" will be sent to you by American Express on receipt of the full amount in Registered letter, Special Delivery or an American Express Money Order.
