VOLUME X Wom COLORED WOMEN WILL VOTE STRONG FOR THE DEMO-CRATIC TICKET Mistreatment of Race Woman by Republican City Administration Will Be Resented at the Polls Next Tuesday That the colored women of Tulsa do not propose to pass unnoticed the action of the police department and Mayor Evans in their very unfair treatment of Mrs. Partee, who was arrested last week and compelled to spend a night in the city jail because of an auto accident in which she was one of the principals, is being evidenced by the activity of several women who have been busy all the week organizing their forces to go to the polls Tuesday and rebuke the Republicans by casting their ballots for the Democratic ticket. Many of those who have registered as Republicans and intended to vote the Republican ticket have signified their determination to assert their political independence in Tuesday's election by voting against the party whose representatives here in Tulsa have shown such little respect for them. "We cannot swallow this insult—it would choke us to death," said one of the women yesterday. "If the Republicans think the colored women of Tulsa are bound to them by inseparable ties, and will support them regardless of their conduct toward us, they will themselves very much mistaken Tuesday." And she left the pressure that she meant all she said. Thus it appears that our women who expect to take part in political affairs, unlike some of our less thoughtful men, will not be the tools of the G. O. P. It is a commendable part these women of the race are playing in the closing days of the campaign. They propose to make themselves felt in the approaching election in a way that will not be pleasing to the Republican bosses, and that is just what they should do. The colored women of this city are not altogether novices in the political world. They are naturally close observers and they have all failed to take in the political situation as it effects the race between the two parties here in Tulsa. Most of them know that the race has always fared better here under Democratic administrations and it is unthinkable that, knowing this, they will still vote the Republican ticket. Harding's "Equality Policy" Enforced Colored People Who Objected to "Jim Crow" Rule Told to Get Out if They Didn't Like It Louisville, Oct. 25.-Five thousand colored Republicans, who attended the big Harding rally in Louisville, Ky., were seated in a separate part of the Armory. Colored people were met at ahe doors by the ushers and sent up to the "South gallery." Those who protested were told to "sit with their kind" or else "get out." Gompels Pleads for Cox Indianapolis, Ind., Oct. 25.-Samuel Gompels urged organized labor to support Governor Cox for election in an address tonight at a labor political rally here. He attacked Senator Harding as an opponent of legislation to benefit labor. Judge Williams Sure of the Colored Vote Popularity of County Judge Much in Evidence Among the Colored People of Tulsa So far as the Colored vote of Tulsa is concerned, Judge W. B.

COX PEACE, PROGRESS AND PROSPERITY tion sentiment counts for anything. Practically every Colored man and woman voter in the city is decidedly pro-Williams and will vote for his re-election. He is easily the most popular man on either of the ple and his re-election is freely preple and his re-election is full predicted by the leaders of both political factions. The popularity of Judge Williams among the Colored people of Tulsa is due solely to his well established policy of dealing fairly and justly with all men regardless of race or color. Every Colored person who knows Judge Williams know him as a big hearted, fair minded man, an honest conscientious official, who believes in the principles of the Golden Rule. He has on many occasions demonstrate these fine qualities of his noble character, and for this reason alone it is generally believed that every Colored voter in Tulsa, regardless of party affiliation will vote for him on Tuesday. Not only is this true among the Colored people of this city—it is equally true all over the country. His name is a household word in every Colored home in the County where he is known. The vote of the Colored people Tuesday for this splendid, upright man will be a fitting tribute to the best qualities to be found or hoped for in real manhood and at the same time a commendable expression of the Race's appreciation of a real friend in the democratic party. As one of the prominent educators said to a Star representative yesterday: "It is impossible to find a better man, so why run the risk of getting a much worse man by trying to find his equal?" And as another prominent educator said: "Judge Williams is all that any good man could possibly hope for; he is fair, honest and just, and absolutely without racial prejudice, just the man for a judicial position and while I am a Republican, I must admit that my party cannot produce a man more fitted for this position than Judge Williams. For my part, I am going to vote for him and I believe every professional man and woman of our Race in Weekly Mail Edition Tulsa, Oklahoma Saturday, Oct. 30, 1920 Rebu ALM OF LIBER WE SHALL ENFOL THE CONSTITUT THE LETTER GOV.

Mrs. G. N. Wright, Mrs. G. T.

"The women are showing an especial interest in the campaign of Congressman 'Howard,' Mrs. Galbreath said, because they do not forget that he was particularly active in getting word to them about their husbands, brothers an dsweethearts fighting at the front."

London.-Terence MacSwinney died of heart failure, according to the verdict in an inquest over the remains of the Irish hunger striker. A dilated heart, acute delirium and scurvy," "due to exhaustion from prolonged refusal to take food brought death," according to the verdict. Mayor's Widow Testifies. The lady mayoress, dressed in black and heavily veiled, was the only witness on behalf of the MacSwinney family and was the dominant figure of the proceedings. Her composure was indicated by her quick and pointed replies. Mrs. MacSwinney successfully resisted the attempts of the coroner to have her characterize her late husband's occupation otherwise than as a "volunteer of the Irish Republican army." The lady mayoress said her name was Muriel Francis MacSwinney and that she lived in Cork. "What was he?" asked the coroner. "An Irish volunteer," was the answer. "Did he make a living by that?" "No," answered Mrs. MacSwinney, "Had he any other occupation?" "He was a school teacher for a number of years," replied the lady Mrs. MacSwinney replied: "My husband did nothing for years but work for his country." Coroner Wyatt objected to the witness describing her husband as an Irish volunteer to which she rejoined: "I don't see why, Ireland has an army of its own; don't you call that an occupation in your army." "Yes," said the coroner, "but that is a different thing entirely." "Quite," was the monosyllable reply of the witness. "He went on a hunger strike the day he was arrested, as they had no right to arrest him; it was an offense against the laws of the Irish repub- By Lloyd Allen Wherein The Tulsa Star Scratches Its Own Back lic," Mrs. MacSwinney spiritedly replied to another question. With the formality of the inquest out of the way, MacSwinney's body was to be conveyed from the prison mortuary to St. George's cathedral to lie in state until 11 a. m. tomorrow, when mass will be held by Archbishop Mannix and Bishop Cotter. MacSwinney, who defied the British government in life, continued to do so today in death. His funeral was planned as one of the greatest demonstrations of the kind in England. "Terence no longer belongs to just our family," his sister Mary said. "At his death he became a kinsman of the entire Irish nation and all struggling people." Although police were crowded about Brixion prison, there was no attempt to interfere with those who openly voiced their sympathy with MacSwinney's cause or flaunted the Sinn Fein colors. It was made clear there will be no interference with the funeral plans or funeral crowds It is not often that the Tulsa Star undertakes to throw bouquets at itself, and it is even more rare that in excess of self appreciation over the success of its efforts in various fields, that it is tempted to scratch its own back within the limit of its column rules. But here goes. As the presidential, congressional and county campaigns are drawing to a close, the Tulsa Star finds itself in estatic elation over the triumph of the policies it has so faithfully and earnestly advocated to the end that votes of the Race should be divided between the two great parties, and not be solidly massed in either of them, particularly in the Republican party. The Star points to the political conditions existing in Tulsa city and county, as evidence of the undisputable triumph of the principles for which it has fought for so many years. The political situation here is not equalled anywhere else in Okalhoma, and its parallel is not to be found anywhere else in the country. It is true enough that there are colored candidates running for offices on the Republican ticket at St. Louis, Mo., Chicago, Ill., Cincinnati and Cleveland, Ohio, and several other places. In these instances, there is no division between the great parties on the part of the Race. It is also true that in New York Race candidates are in the field on Republican and Socialist tickets but the Socialist party, howsoever worthy its purposes may be, is not to be considered in strength and power with the Democratic party. Then in Maryland, we have a very able representative, Ashbie Hawkins, who is making a strong campaign for United States Senator. It is worth of mention here, that when Senator Harding recently visited Baltimore, he called around him the supporters of Hawkins and begged them in the interest of Republican party success in gaining a majority in the U. S. Senate, to forsake Hawkins and to give their support to Weller, the white candidate for the same office. This they declined to do, while at the same time they pledged their support to Senator Harding. This is a factional fight among Republicans only and has for its aim the punishing of the Mayor of Baltimore, who had repudiated the colored voters of Baltimore after they had elected him over and above a most powerful Democratic machine. The situation in Tulsa, city and county, may be best illustrated by relating the story of the controversy in which the two leading white dailies of Tulsa engaged because there were colored candidates upon both the Republican and Democratic tickets. Prior to this controversy, it may be said the campaign for several months had been carried on so far as the surface is concerned as placid as the Larger Circulation than all the combined Colored Weeklies in Oklahoma.

NUMBER FORTY icans Cork—Outside of the Cork city hall there was posted today the following notice: "The second republican lord mayor, of Cork lies, as lay his predecessor, murdered by the British overnment. Cork is in mourning. Citizens, or any section of them, will take only authorized action. Orders will be issued by proper authority." Today the city is quiet with the exception of a slight stir caused by military raids on banks in search of firearms placed in vaults for safekeeping. Soldiers not on duty were restricted to their barracks. The body of Joseph Murphy, one of the hunger strikers, in Cork jail, will be removed tonight to a church from which the funeral will eb held tomorrow. With the exception of Kenny and Donivan, who are believed to be rapidly nearing death, doctors say there is still a chance to save the lives of the remaining hunger strikers if they are released. Pulsa Star Scratches own Back depthless wastes of the Pacific and the proverbial quietude of the Potomac. But this calm serenity was broken and disturbed, not by a Democrat, but by a Republican, a former Commissioner, who had been elected to office by Colored votes. This white Republican made the dire and awful discovery that a Colored man, Rev. E. N. Bryant, had been nominated and was making an earnest campaign for the same Commissionership he formerly held. This disgruntled him so much that he could not keep his opinions to himself, so he wrote the editor of the Daily Tribune, so-called Democratic paper, and expressed his belief in the erroneous principle that while a Colored man should vote, yet the time was not ripe, nor had he advanced sufficiently to be fit for holding office. The Tribune unforunately and unwisely sided with this disaffected white Republican, and childled the Republicans of the city and county for having a Colored man on the ticket. The following day, the Tulsa World, the daily Republican organ, retaliated by confessing that a Colored man had been regularly nominated on the Republican ticket, but that there was also a Colored man running for office on the Democratic ticket. Thus the matter politically so far as color is concerned was horse and horse for both parties, and there was no room for either the pot or the kettle to call the other black. The Star regrets that the Tribun etook occasion to express its opinion for it could have gained several points for the party to which it claims allegiance, by letting the white ex-commissioner express his doleful voice from the tombs. It also finds fault with the Tulsa World, which in connection with the matter made the entirely uncalled for and unfounded charge that this paper was "subsidized" by the Democrats. in The Star is, however, perfectly law-well satisfied. The fact that there are candidates representing the Race on both of the party tickets proves without doubt that there is a division of vote between the parties and that precisely is what we have contended for. Aside from these candidates, there is a strong likelihood of a division of the Colored vote in favor of a number of candidates (white) on the Democratic ticket. Our contemporary, the Colored Republican organ of Tulsa, proposes to carry a page ad supporting the re-election of that most excellent gentleman, Judge Williams of the County Court, and last week editorially favored his candidacy. The Star cordially congratulates the Colored citizens of Tulsa over this liberal and broad-minded position they have taken and urges them to go to the polls next Tuesday and cast their ballots for the best men on either ticket.

CURTIS, Deputy. (A. N. P. Service) BALTIMORE, Md., Oct. 30—The campaign of W. Ashbie Hawkins, Independent Colored candidate for United States Senator, is assuming formidable proportions. It now looks as though Hawkins would receive a very substantial support from the Colored people and also from a considerable number of dissatisfied whites. It is this feature of the campaign that is affording much concern among the white leaders of both parties. What was in the beginning regarded as a big joke has become a serious political menace. It is the first time in the history of the country that a Negro has stood a candidate for a seat in the United States Senate. Many Colored men declare that Hawkins stands a good chance of election.

JOHN SMITHERMAN, Circulation Manager OUR POLITICAL FAITH "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. VOTE "NO" on Sec. 9 A, Article 10, amendment to the state constitution, unless you want to increase your annual taxes. "HOWARD FOR CONGRESS" seems to be the settled slogan with Tulsa people, regardless of party lines, and when Tulsa will she will. DO YOUR DUTY Tuesday—Vote, and vote right. You owe it to your country and to yourself to exercise the right of franchise. Whatever your politics—vote. THE PARAMOUNT ISSUE with the colored people of Tulsa is the return of Congressman E. B. Howard to Congress and the election of the local Democratic ticket. "POLLITICS" makes strange bed fellows," runs an old saying, to which we might add with propriety, "of some otherwise fairly sane men, politics also makes ools incarnate." THE COLORED MAN or woman in Tulsa who is well informed in political matters, and who has the best interest of the race at heart, will surely vote for the county Democratic ticket. AT ANY RATE, the vote of the women will decide the election, and while Gov. Cox is not necessarily a ladies' man, the majority of the fair ones are Cox women, all of which indicates that the Ohio Governor will be the next president. ONE THING IS CERTAIN: Gov. Cox will carry Oklahoma, no matter how many colored votes are cast for Harding. And it is practically conceded now that he will carry New York and Ohio. If this prediction proves true Senator Harding will be lost in the shuffle. ONE OF OUR WHITE SUBSCRIBERS writes: "I am very much interested in your paper and the splendid fight you are making to bring your race to a political emancipation. You deserve special commendation from the people of your community in both races." Thank you! But the trouble with most of us newspaper fellows is that we seldom ever get all we deserve. Fortune are we though, at that. THE ELECTION NEXT TUESDAY, no matter who is elected president, can't be accepted as indicative of party strength. As never before in the history of the country the political parties are split on the national issues and as a result thousands of strict politicians will stretch their ticket. But in the final count the verdict of the people will be rendered unmistakably for the best man in their judgment—and here's hoping that man will be James M. Cox. THE INTELLIGENT PEOPLE of Tulsa are entitled to an apology from those who are responsible for the grating on their finer senses that the injection of the unpleasant race question into the campaign has occasioned and the "airing" given it by the press of this city. We deplane the incident and regret that we live among men of such narrow vision; but this sorrow is counter balanced by the joy we feel in the knowledge that these men represent the minority of our splendid cosmopolitan citizenship. THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY was born when Thomas Jefferson, the father of Democracy, wrote the Declaration of Independence promulgating the principles of justice and equality. "All men are created free and equal and endowed with certain inalienable rights among which are life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness," and no deviation from these principles or divergent policies as advocated by sap-headed political misfits of any faith can change the true fundamental pillar stones of the party. Any man who is really a man capable of using tto the best advantage the gray matter God has given him can ascribe to the principles of Democracy—we do not expect others to do so. "CONCEDING EVERYTHING that the Negro contends, who wants to vote with the Democrats, admitting all of his argument to the effect that the Republican party is doing nothing for the Negro but making promises, that Negro has yet to convince the Black Dispatch that the Democratic party offers the elixir for our ills in citizenship." The above appeared in last week's Black Dispatch, followed with a long lettered, pointless spasm of trades against the race man who has manifested his good common sense by cutting himself loose from his traditional political bondage and supporting our friends in the Democratic party with his vote. If a same process of common sense reasoning (which we have heretofore ascribed to the editor of the Black Dispatch) cannot convince him and turn him from his erroneous pathway, certainly it would be a useless waste of time for mere man to attempt it. There are some people of our group who cannot be moved from their fixed notions of love and devotion to the Republican party and their animosity to the Democratic, just as there are white men of both parties who cannot be convinced that their prejudiced attitude toward the black man is fundamentally wrong. Realizing that to "convince a fool against his will, he is of the same opinion still," few of us care to waste time explaining. THE RECENT COLORED FAIR held at Wewoka may not have been the financial success the promoter anticipated—and it probably was not—but from the standpoint of attendance by people of the white and Indian races, as well as colored people, and the cordial relationship existing between the three groups, a much higher and nobler purpose than that of making money, has been attained—that of breaking down the walls of racial antagonism and animosities based upon color prejudice, and cementing the apolitical friendly relations which J. Coody Johnson, the promoter, has done and still doing so much to establish in his community. Considered from this angle the fair was a booming success and deserves all that might be said by way of praise for the man who made it possible. "Coody," as he is known and loved in his home town by the people of the three races, has ingratiated himself into the good graces of his fellow townsmen and will live and die the idol of the people—of all races. THANK GOD, THERE ARE SOME FAIR ONES The first ballot of the electors who choose the candidates for the American Hall of Fame have rejected Frederick Douglas, the great Negro orator, who rose from slavery to a position of nation-wide distinction and who rendered incalculably valuable service to the cause of abolition. This drawing of the color line is not authorized, so far as is known, by any of the provisions of the gift regulating the selection of distinguished Americans for this posthumous honor. Certainly it is not consistent with the broader principles of the Americanism which ought to govern the choice of these candidates. Fame is not a matter of parentage. If there is any sound theory at the bottom of the system under which the Hall of Fame is maintained, the men and women so honored are those who have rendered great services to the nation, in one way or another. While many omissions have been grossly incongruous and while in all probability many selections have been undeserved, nevertheless through the system as a whole runs, the idea that the men and women selected have served the nation in honoring themselves by their achievements themselves are chiefly honorable because they contributed largely to the progress of the nation and to the stability of its institutions. From such a category it is grotesquely inconsistent arbitrarily to exclude such a man as Frederick Douglass—or Booker T. Washington or B. K. Bruce, for the matter of that. The annals of the black race in this country contain other names from which a choice ought to be made, even though it would be going too far to say that all should be included. The broad vision which ought to distinguish the action of the electors is narrowed to the pettiest of proportions if men are rejected because they were black, even though none may have been selected because he was white. BUTTON, BUTTON—WHO'S GOT THE BUTTON? Speaking about "the war," the partisans of Woodrow Wilson point out—with a great deal of justice—that this was in many respects more of a Republican war than a Democratic war and that billions of the people's money was "wasted" because of the "inefficiency" of the Republicans. The Wilsonites claim that practically every "key" position was occupied by a Republican during the greater part of the war. Here they are: Gen. John J. Pershing, a Republican and son-in-law of Senator Warren, one of the administration's most bitter enemies, was commander-in-chief of the army in France. Admiral Sims, a Republican, ran the navy in the war zone. Harry A. Garfield, a Republican, and son of a former Republican president, was the fuel administrator. Herbert Hoover, of England, a Republican, was the food administrator Howard E. Coffin, of the steel trust, a Republican, was in charge of aircraft—or was it air-graft? production. Maj. Gina Coutts Maj. Gen. Goethals, a Republican, was in charge of ship building. E. R. Stettinius, of J. Pierpont Morgan and company, a Republican, was made an assistant secretary of war in charge of all supplies. Maj. Gen. F. M. Cormack Davison, of J. Pierpont Morgan and company, a Republican, was head of the Red Cross. Charles M. Schwab and Charles Piez, both Republicans, controlled the Emergency Fleet corporation. Frank A. Vanderlip, of John D. Rockefeller's City Bank in New York, a Republican, managed the War Savings stamp campaign. And on top of all these names the Democrats can also prove that most of the "dollar-a-year men" were big Republican business men. And occupying these "key positions" and holding the keys to Uncle Sam's treasury—with unlimited liberty money and other patriotic wealth gotten with the help of mobs and terrorism—these genetlemen naturally helped themselves. It is, after all, nonsense to talk about "waste." Nothing was wasted. Big Business got every cent that could be gotten. Moreover, grafting was non-partisan. Therefore why blame only the Democrats—Oklahoma Leader. A NEW CHILD IS BORN THE OLD WORLD—the old order of things temporal—has passed away and a new world—new conditions and environments—have been ushered in. This is true in a political sense as much as in any other sense and with the colored man as well as with men of other races. As touching the race in a political and economic sense this fact is being evidenced on every hand. The recent world war, its beginning and closing, marked this epoch in the world's history, but the change had been in process a number of years. The campaign now closing and the election next Tuesday are but milestones in this era of evolution. The world is in a state of unrest and all of this commotion, political and otherwise, is simply the necessary process of elimination, or perparing the world for further and greater events in the history of mankind. In the present and in the future the black man will play his part, just as he has played a part in the past. It's unavoidable. But his part in the future events of men—in the new world—will be vastly different from the part he played in days gone by. The new world has brought forth a new man, conceived and birthed in the womb of oppression and persecution; of humble parentage but with inherited character which will eventually exalt him to the rightful place among men on the plane of human equality. The child is born. It has yet to grow and develop into manhood. God alone is able to stile the life of this child and that is not in the Divine plan. It will grow and in growing will take on the qualities of character which will enable him to master environments and develop into perfect manhood. The child of today will be the man of tomorrow. In the old order of things, speaking from a political standpoint, the black man had one faith—that was based in the Republican party. By false teachings and false notions of obligations and loyalty, he clung to this faith like a drowning man might cling to a straw. In his weakness and illiteracy, his tutored mind was incapable of considering men in their relationship to measures, and as a natural result became the victim of his own stupidity—a slave to the Republican party. But this black man has passed away with the old world and a new black man has come forth with the new world—the undeveloped child referred to; the vision which has prompted a large per cent of colored men and women to join hands and declare allegiance to true Democratic principles and with their vote endorse and encourage our friends in the Democratic party. In no other way can the race entertain hope of emerging from the thraldom of political darkness in which the traditions of our forefathers have engulfed us. Let us rejoice at the dawn of a new era and the birth of this new child, and like the wise men of the East, let us go in search of this newborn babe and herald him to the world as the savior of his people. Let us forgive and forget the past and turn our faces to the future. What was good for our forefathers is not meat for the new generations. We must face new conditions with new ideas and renewed determination to surmount all obstacles and find our place in the world among men on the great plane of human equality. HERE IS ▲ LITTLE MORE REPUBLICANISM READ THIS, Mr. Hide-bound colored Republican, and try to remember it when you go into the booth Tuesday; "As a taxpayer residing in County Commissioners District No. 1, I am writing you to inquire if it is satisfactory to the Tribune, likewise the Tulsa World, that a Negro represent this, our Commissioners District. I ask this simply because I have failed to read anywhere in the columns of your paper any reference to the fact that the Republican nominee, E. N. Bryant, is a Negro. It would seem to me that it is high time the electorate of this district is informed of his fact in order that when they go to the polls on the second day of November they may know that the man whose name appears upon the ballot as E. N. Bryant, is colored. I am not antagonistic to the African race and believe in being fair as regards the right of ballot, etc., except the time will not reach us immediately soon when I as a Republican can subscribe myself to the support of a Negro for any public office except in a jurisdiction where the population is wholly colored." P. MARTIN The above is an inquiry addressed to the Tulsa Tribune by a former Republican County Commissioner. This is the kind of man the Republicans nominated and elected to office with the help of the colored vote. Now because a colored man is the party nominee for the position he once held he reveals his yellow streak by injecting the race question in the erstwhile vigorous but peaceful campaign. Thus remained for a Republican to raise the much discredited and time-worn issue so dear to the jack-leag, spineless, unscrupulous politician. Once opened up there are always to be found weak-hearted people to give undue importance to this question which has in fact no place in the great political issues involved. Accordingly, the Tulsa Tribune seems to have found special pleasure in giving publicity to the inquiry and to acquiesce in the un-American sentiment expressed therein. Both the inquiry by Martin and the editorial relating to and answering it, by the Tribune, are representations of perverted Americanism and bespeak the respective characters of the two writers; but we are not surprised in either. In our opinion, both are undesirable citizens. The Tulsa World followed this up Tuesday morning with a front page editorial giving more needless publicity to the question in an attempt to retaliate by showing that a colored man was also a candidate on the Democratic ticket. In this editorial the World charged the Democrats of Tulsa "subsidized a colored Democratic paper in the Negro section, its candidates play politics with Negro voters and organize Democratic clubs" etc. This is another attempt on the part of the World to play politics of the basest nature. The colored people of f Tulsa in casting their lot with the Democratic party have acted of their own volition because they have learned from actual experience that their best friends are not to be found in the Republican ranks. Acting on their own initiative they not only organized clubs, but many of them have contributed their bit to the cause of true Democracy as they have found it among the Democrats of Tulsa. So far the Tulsa Star is concerned, we are not "subsidized" by any party. We stand and fight for the true principles of democracy—for an equal and fair chance for the colored man, along side of all other men, in the economic and political life of our common country. In our advocacy of these principles we are not influenced by the hope of any pecuniary ain, bonus or bounty of any kind, or by men or parties, except when they are in perfect harmony with our established policy. The race question should have been left out of this campaign, but a Republica has thrust it upon us. It is quite natural that the scallawags of both parties should relish this as a coveted desert of a political feast, but the cultured minds of both parties and of both races must frown upon the spectacle. There is no good reason why a colored man should not aspire for political positions. As a citizen he has a perfect right to do so, and his racial identity should be no barrier to his ambition, though very often it is. The conditions we have lived under in this country for the past fifty years, the traditions of a misguided people, are responsible for the prejudice a black man must overcome to succeed in almost any worthy undertaking. viewed from a sane, practical standpoint, however—taking things as they are rather than discussing them as they should be—the colored man who 7 aspires for political positions should be conscious of his ability to successfully and creditably discharge the duties of the office he seeks; convinced that under existing conditions, he would be able to render as much service and do as much good for all the people of his community as his white opponent for the same position; above reproach in his daily life and habits among his fellowman and worthy in the estimation of his own people of the honor he seeks. Unless he comes up to this standard he should not embarrass himself and his people by announcing for public office. The colored people of Tulsa know whether or not the Republican nominee for County Commissioner comes up to this standard and they will vote their approval or disapproval as the case deserves. Tom Munroe Will Draw Heavily on Colored Voters Howard Strong Favorite In the Race for Congress Home Man Will Get Landslide Vote in Tuisa County—Will Draw Heavily on Republicans Colored Man at Alsuma Writes Encouraging Letter to County Attorney—Though They Have Never Met, is Working For Election of Montrose Soldier Vote will Help Return E. B Howard to U. S. Congress At the close of the campaign and on the eve f.eicind.nor hoesistivie on the day of election every indication points to the success of Congressman E. B. Howard for re-election to congress from the first congressional district. Sentiment is strong for the congressman all over the district, but it is particularly so in Tulsa and Tulsa County. It is certainly something out of the ordinary for a public official to be blessed with the active encouragement and co-operation in his campaign for re-election of any man whom he has never met; and it is even more out of the ordinary if such public official is a white democrat and such unknown friend happens to be a Colored man. And yet, that is precisely the predicament Tom Monroe, democratic candidate for re-election to the office of County Attorney, found himself Tuesday when he received a letter from a well known Colored man of Alsuma, assuring the County Attorney that, although a Colored man and a stranger, he was putting forth his best efforts to re-elect him. Not for money, not for favors, but solely because of the splendid record Tom Monroe has made since he was elected to the office. The district has never been represented by a man more able, more wiling and more popular with his constitution than Congressman Howard. And this pauparity is not continued altogether to his race or to his party. All who know L. B. Beward will agree that his character is composed of all the elements essential to true manhood, and he deserves the confidence and high steem so lavishly bestowed upon him by the people of his home town. Much of the Congressman's strength and support in this campaign has come from republicans who have the foresight to put the interest of the people above party obligations. The letter in full and Mr. Monroe's answer follows: Alsuma, Okla., Oct. 25, '20 Hon. T. I. Monroe, Tulsa, Okla., My dear sir:— shr_ egi_ f cmfwyp jqkgb hgkgi shgwp I am sure that you will be surprised to know that I am a stranger, also a Colored man, and am putting forth every effort to put you over in this Linn Lane Township. I am not doing so for anything only on your past record as Count Attorney. Of course I am a stranger to you, but you may ask Jake Dillard, Stalie Webb or A. J. Smitherman of the Tulsa Star about me. ogkdj shrdrd miwyp shrdrd uywwwfd They want Howard returned because they know he will not betray his trust; because they know of the good work he has done in the past as their representative in Congress, and because they have reasons to believe he is decidedly the best man for the place—that's why E. B. Howard will be returned by the biggest majority ever given a Congressman from this district. Respectfully Colored Soldiers For Howard A Star representative questioned 98 Colored ex-soldier boys this week to see how they intended to vote with respect to Congressmao Hiward and his opponent "Bert" Chandler and all except one of that number were emphatic for Howard. The other one said he had not made up his mind. Several of that number said they had received special benefits from Mr. Howard in an official way while he was in Washington. This proves true while the Congressman has often said : "I will work just as long and just as earnestly to look after the affairs of a Colored man in Washington as I would any white man, and finn just as much pleasure in doing it," and accounts for the many friends he has among the Colored people of this district. M. C. BALTRIP. Tulsa, Okla., Oct. 30, '20. Mr. M. C. Baltrip. Alusma Okla Austinia, Okla., Dear Sir:— I have your letter of the 25th suggest ing your appreciation of our efforts as your County Attorney, and assuring me of your support at the coming election. During my term in office I have given the Colored man the same consideration as the white. It is always a pleasure to serve those who appreciate our efforts, and I find your race especially appreciative. I thank you very kindly for your interest in me and I appreciate very much your efforts in my behalf in Lynn Land Tiwnship. I shall be very glad to have you call upon me at any time and if I may serve you in any way you will please command me. Scott Ferris Closes Campaign in Tulsa Yiurs very truly, County Attorney, T. I. MONROE, Mr. Baltrip is well known in Tulsa having been engaged in the real estate business here several years ago. He purchased a farm at Alsuma two years ago and has some engaged in agricultural work. Democratic Nominee For Senate Picked as Winner in Tuesday's Election Hon. Scott Ferris, democratic nominee for the U. S. Senate closed his campaign in Tulsa last night with one of his characteristic speeches. He discussed the issues of the campaign and plead for a united democratic front in the election next Tuesday. Tom I. monroe is well known to the majority of the Colored people of Tulsa and in the County. He has many friends among them in both parties and will receive the big end of the Colored vote next Tuesday. As stated in his reply to Mr. Baltrip, Mr. Monroe has shown no discrimination in his official dealing with Colored people; he has been fair and impartial in the administrative duties of his office. In short, he has made good and deserves to be re-elected—as he will be, no doubt. Mr. Ferris has made a vigorous campaign beginning in the primaries, and it is beveled, a successful one. His record, a successful shine one. His record as United States Congressman stands well in his favor for the Senatorial togo and gives him a big handicap over his republican opponent Scott Ferris will be elected by a substantial majority, according to pre-election signs, despite the powerful republican machine set to work against him early in the campaign. Many of the Colored people of Tulsa voted for him in the primary and a greater number will vote for him Tuesday. Tulsa Boy Weds in Foralla, Ala. Mr. Cooly Johnson, nephew of Hon. R. J. Hill, was married last Tuesday evening at 9:30 at Florala, Ala., to Miss Geneva Williams of that city, and returned to Tulsa on Friday via the Frisco. The newly wels will make this their future home.

Thomas Newsome Newport New; Second District—Thomas R. Reid, Portsmouth; Third District—H. H. Price, Richmond; Fourth District—Rev. F. L. Mason. These nominations show that the breach between the white and Colored wings of the Republicas party has not been bridged. The executive committee advises the Colored voters to either refrain from voting for Congressman Slemp in the Ninth or vote for the Democratic candidate. Pollard last night issued a call for a mass meeting of all Colored voters. They will be addressed by prominent, able speakers. OKLAHOMA OPPOSED TO GOVERNMENT OPERATION Editors of State in Large Majority Report Their Communities Against Socialistic Experiment The Oklahoma public is not as ready to try radical government experiments as many residents of other states imagine, according to the results of a questionaire on the subject of Government operation of industries sent out to the editors who replied, 29, or 87 per cent expressed it is at their opinion that the citizens of their communities were opposed to the government going into business in competition with its citizens. The questionnaire was sent out by the Press Service Company of New York City. While the inquiry was based on the general principle of government operation, the so-called Mucle Shoals bill now before Congress was used as a concrete example. Uster this bill a government owned corporation would be given power, among other things, to produce at Muscle Shoals various fertilizer products and sell them in competition with private manufacturers and dealers. As to the wisdom of the government adopting this policy toward the firtlizer industry the editors were askel for their personal opinion. Of the 142 editors who gave an opinion on this point, 109, or 77 per cent were unqualifiedly opposed to the scheme. The political affiliations of the Oklahoma papers whose editors answered the questionairere were: Republican, 27; Democratic, 72; Independent, 33; and miscellaneous, 17. A summary of the results of the questionairere from the country at large shows that this opposition to government operation is general. Of 5154 editors replyisg 4466 or 86 per cent voted their communities against the proposition. This is an increase of 3 per cent in the opposition as compared with the results of a similar questionairere sent out by the Press Service Company a year ago in consectiin with the question of turning the railroads back to the owners. The papers heard from in the pres ent poll are 1857 Republican; 1350 Democratic; 1458 Indenpendent; and 462 miscellaneous. Not only did political bias play no part is the replies but sectional differences seem to VOTE FOR W. M. McCOLLOUGH Repulican Candidate for Sheriff have no appreciable effect on the result. The combined circulation of the papers whose editors replied is 11,428,817, which means a constituentcy of at least 44,000,000 readers. GETTING RESULTS IN HAITI INVESTIGATION NEW YORK, Oct. 30—The following statement on Haiti has bees issued by the N. A. A. C. P.: "With the appointment of a Naval Board of Investigation, consisting of Rear Admiral Henry T. Mayo, and J. R. Oliver, U. S. N. Brigadier General J. H. Pendleton, to investigate the invasion of Haiti, the charges made by the Acting Secretary of the Association, Mr. James Weldon Johnson, and by Mr. Herbert J. Soligmann, both writig in the Nation, have bebum to achieve results. "The Association is gratified to announce that its charge that more than 3,000 Haitians were slaughtered by U.S. Marines has been verified by the report of Brigadier General Barnett, former commandant of the Marine Corps who not only placed the number of those killed at about 3,250 but referred in his report to the "in discriminate killings" which had taken place. When the National Association originally made this charge, the Secretary of Navy abolished it. "After the publication of the Barnett report we wired Senator Harding requesting him to reiterate the charges with all strength at his command and calling to his attention the substantiation of our charges in the Barnett report. Kentuckians Want Race Man on Board of Education [A. N. P. Service] LOUISVILLE, Ky., Oct. 30—The Colored people of this city have launched the candidacy of Wilson Lovett for a place on the local Board of Education. His petition has been filed with 57 more than the required number of names. It is proposed to "single shoot" the colored vote for him and thereby make sure of his election. There is also considerable sentiment against the University of Louisville bond issue. It is very probable that the Colored vote will be cast against the issue. Race Woman Named For Congress (A. N. P.

The robbers took race $180 in cash and a few articles of the merchandise. The men escaped after the hold up. THE MISSION OF THE CHURCH DURING THE GOSPEL AGE Before discussing the mission of the Church it might be well for us to state what is the church and what class of persons constitute the church. The wolf church means a called out class from among the people of the world—1st Peter 2:9. The Church is called out for the purpose of being drilled, polished and qualified for judges during the Millennium of Judgment Day—1st Cor. 6:2-3. Before any one can become a member of this church or called out class be must be Baptized into Christ's death; that is to say, one must surrender to the Lord his will and all his earthly hopes, things and ambitions; yes, even life itself if he expects to live with the Lord—Romans 6:3-5-8. A mistaken idea has lost prevailed concerning the mission of, the Church. It is believed by many that the Church should engage in all social, moral, religious and political reform movements, but such an idea is absolutely wrong and contrary to scripture. The Church is a class called out for the purpose of being fitted and qualified for Judges and teachers during the Milennium. While the church should and does greatly sympathize with the poor world in its efforts to reform its conditions, she is to spend all of her time in preparing and making herself ready for this all-portant position which when gained she will be able to permanently reform the world. To illustrate the thought suppose a certain person was selected and called out to be trained as a teacher of a very high position. You can readily see that while such persons would be in sympathy with any good move in the way of helping the people he could hit give his time to such movements especially if the time was limited in which he was to prepare himself for this high position. Now these man made systems of Churches regardless to the names by which they are called. The people of the world have been taught by thousands of false preachers that any band of persons (who meet together, singing and praying, collect money, pay a preacher and build a church house), is a church but such a thought is absolutely wrong for the reason that no one can become a member of the Church that God recognizes unless he fully consecrates himself and agrees to do the will of God even unto death. The masses of the people have not only been mistaught as to what constitutes the Church but they have also been misled as to what is the Chrchr's mission during this Gospel Age. It has been sounder from the house-tops luring the latter part of this Gospel Age, by thousands of pinheaded, ignorant, and unfaithful preachers, that the principal mission of the church is to go slumming for sinners, joining social, moral, religious and political societies and seek to reform the world along those lines. The people are also made to understand that no one could be a genuine Christian unless he was interested in some respect, with some of these reform movements. But such is a false idea of the Church's mission. While the Church admires in many respects and sympathizes with those engaged in reform work, she, the Church realizes that all the endeavors of man to reform the world will end in absolute failure and that whatever good is accomplished is but temporary at be t. The Church fully understands that the world will never be truly reformed until all her members have finished their testings here below and passed beyond the veil. The members of the Church also know that they have been called out—1st Peter 2:9; to qualify or get themselves for Judges during the Milennium or Judgment Day—1st Cor. 6:2-3. The value of these reform movements has been over-exaggerated by the Clergy and many others who have desired to hide their damnable schemes of graft and trickery behind a little batch of pre-tended reform work; such as giving a poor man a dinner once a year, Thanksgiving, for instance; giving and collecting money to build a home for wayward boys and girls and at the same time sustaining a condition which contributes largely to the cause of the poor man beng hungry and the boys and girls going astray; such as poor prices for farm products, extortionate taxes and high rents. There are other persons not prominently connected with any of these reform movements who have done and are doing more than many who are conspicuous. The Senator, Congressman, Newspaper man, Merchant, the Fireman, the Sheriff, the Policeman etc., who fearlessly advocate and stand up for what he believes to be right even at the sacrifice of friends or life, is contributing more to the social, moral, religious and A. W. W. political reformation of the world than the great majority of these pinheaded preachers. The sending of Missionaries to Foreign Countries has proven to be a sad mistake for the reason that the truth concerning God's plan of Salvation was not sent with the missionaries. Since the Great War the Heathens are looking with great surprise upon the God of these so-called Christian Nations. They are declaring an utter disrespect for the religious teachings of a people whose God would sanction the killing of millions of innocent persons It is better that people hear nothing about God and His plan of salvation, before the Milennium of Judgment Day if they do not hear the truth. It is a fact well known that the person who has a lot of misunderstanding scriptures in his head is harder to be taught the truth than one who claims to know nothing about the Bible. Nowhere in the Scriptures are God's people directed to spend their time in efforts at morally reforming the world. Our Lord did not engage O. S. S. in this work, neither did the Apostle, nor did they offer any suggestion to the effect the work of the Church should differ from the work which they performed and directed us to continue. On the contrary, they declare that we have the Apostles for examples of how we ought to walk. They declare that our Lord's course was in full perfect harmony with the Divine plan and will, and that the Apostles faithfully followed his example. And we are exhorted to simply become co-workers together with God in His work, already instituted—not to order or attempt to improve on them. There were moralists and Moral reformers in our Lords Day; some along the line of abstinence, some along the line of asceticism, inculcating rigid self-denial in food, clothing etc., as essential to a moral uplift of the people. There were also political reformers who sought the establishment of Republican Institutions in his day; and Social reformers who sought to establish forms of communism. There were also dress reformers at that time, who advocated certain peculiar styles of clothing, beneficial to health, morals and religious sanctity. Do we find that our Lord or his Apostles ever associated with any of these or that they ever in any words or act gave sanction or encouragement to any of these theories or reforms? No. Not once. If then, the teaching example of our Lord and his Apostles are our criterion of the will of the Lord, the Church's commission is not to morally reform the world. But perhaps some one will say, times are changed from what they were, and the Church's work should change accordingly. We answer, that the Apostle Paul declares in so many words, "I have not shunned to declare unto you all the council of God." (Acts 20:27) Whatsoever therefore is additional to that which was stated by the Apostle is not the council of God. And any council from any other quarter is not to be received by --- THE TULSA STAR Saturday, Oct. 30, 1920 and more The Chu mission i and Dea ur (To 2:7; 3:6- It is an mission see the and who and who is to tea to introdi ship of clear to piece, "c calling," to suffer ness sake His disp of the sp lives, an vision, t and mercy clearly and distinctively The Church is to realize that her mission is not to these, the Blind and Deaf, but him, "That hath an ear (To hear) Let him hear (Rev. 2:7: 3:6-13:22) It is another part of the Church's mission to care for those who do see the light which she holds up, and who are attracted by that light and who come unto the Lord. She is to teach and instruct such, and to introduce them to the full followship of the high calling by making clear to them, as the Lord's mouthpiece, "What is the hope of our calling," present and future—Now to suffer with Christ for righteousness sake, to cultivate His spirit, His disposition, to bear much fruit of the spirit in our own hearts and lives, and thus, under Divine supervision, to be fitted, polished and prepared for a place in the Glorious Temple of the future for a share in the Glorious work of the incoming age—The Blessing of the world (1st Cor. 1:26; Eph. 1:18; 2d Thes. 1:11). Red 0 Ju --- Christians, and is sure to be misleading. Again, the Apostle says to Timothy, respecting the word of God, "All scripture is given out by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness; that the man of God may be perfect, thoroughly furnished un to all good works." (2nd Timothy 3:16-17). If therefore, it was God's design that the Church's mission should change at some future time we should be able to find in the scripture some antitaton of this kind, and some authority for the change. And if we find no authority for the change in her mission we should make no change. But some one inquires, did not our Lord especially go after the Publicans and Sinners and especially welcome them; and was not that an indication to us that the Church's work is to be largely amongst the lower, depraved class of mankind. We answer that the Publicans and Harlots were not made the subjects of special missionary efforts on the part of our Lord and His Apostles. It was when these classes came to His ministry, to His preaching, manifested interest therein and signs of repentance and reformation, that he received them cordially; he did not refuse to recognize them, as did the Pharisees. The record is not that he went on slumming missions, after the Publicans and Harlots, but he "Receiveveth (Publicans and Halots) Sinners," and that many of these lower classes heard Him gladly (Luke 15:2; Mark 12:37) The chief mission of the church is toward herself. She is to lift up the light of the world, the true light—not with the expectation of enlightening the world, not with the thought that her feeble lamp shall scatter earth's night of sin and darkness of superstition; for that can be accomplished only by the coming of the morning, the Milennial morning when the Son of righteousness shall arise with healing in his wings. She holds up the light of the truth, the light of the Gospel during this night—to attract some—"a peculiar people"—Not to attract and gather all, but "Even as many as the Lord our God shall call." (Acts 2:30) Her message respecting the love of God and the salvation which is in Christ Jesus as it rings out into the world, is not expected to awaken the world and lead the world to the Lord. No She is merely bearing witness—a witness which will have to do also with a future knowledge and opportunity to be granted to the world during the Millennium. She is instructed by the word of the Lord not to expect that any but a aomparatively small number will appreciate her light or her message: As the Prophet foretold so she has found it. "Who hath believed our report? And to whom is the arm of the Lord revealed?" (Isa. 53:1; John 12:38) As the scripture declares so She, the Church finds it, that the vast majority of mankind are blind so that they cannot see the light: Some are stone blind, so as to see nothing; while others are partially blind and can get a little glimmer of it by which they can discern some things indistinctly. In hearing, likewise, the world's ears are dull of hearing—"Deaf" says the Scripture. Some hear nothing, others hear very imperfectly, few hear the message of Divine love Watch This Space W. C.

OKLAHOMA salvation knows that Jesus Christ became a man for the purpose of laying down his human body for the redemption of the world.

(1st Cor. 15:45) And no one with even sound reason could expect Christ to give His human body for the ransom of man and receive it back. Any one should reason that if He laid His human body down for man He forever parts with the right to its possession. To say that Christ could receive again the same body laid down to redeem man would be the same as saying that a person could pay one thousand dollars to redeem a piece of mortgaged property, and at the same time have a right to receive back the one thousand dollars.

I must say that I do not know when I have been more surprised in any one than I was in Rev. Johnson during my debate with him. He convinced me and others that he knows absolutely nothing about God's Great Plan of Salvation; and worse of it all, he attempted to fool the people by quoting the 16th verse of the 16th Chapter of Mark to prove that there is an eternity of punishment after death, when he knew full well that the 16th chapter of Mark has only eight verses recognized as genuine, from the ninth through the twentieth is recognized by all Bible students as an interpolation. To say that the School in which Rev. Johnson was educated for the ministry did not inform him concerning these interpolations in the Bible would be casting a too gross a reflection upon the Institution. The only reasonable conclusion to reach is that Rev. Johnsn being hard pushed for facts to maintain his false position of eternal torment, attempted to (Continued on Page 10) Tulsa, Oklahoma ..
