NO. 6 Thu BOARD OF EDUC ELECTS Dr. John Van Schaic dent of the Board B. Larned, Vice P the Dictator, Stoo Thurston to Go—Bruce to Follow. Board of Education to Act—New Superintendent to Be Appointed. At the time this news item was written the report was that Superintendent Thurston was to be succeeded by another man. Just who this new man is has not been decided on. Roscoe C. Bruce, the Assistant Superintendent of the schools, will now be removed by the new Superintendent. The board has decided that it cannot longer retain Bruce with such pressure against him. It was said by one member that he was for Bruce some time ago, but he can no longer support him. In the meantime the Parents' League will continue its reform crusade against the management of the colored schools. The Parents' League feels very grateful to Attorney Fountain Peyton for his defense of the people and the interest he has manifested in the schools. No member, of the Board of Education is held in higher respect than Mr. Peyton. The league has decided to a member to throw their support and influence to him as a lawyer. Dr. Hayden Johnson, a member of the Board of Education, has ordered The Bee to be stopped. It was not "stopped," but discontinued. He was stung by the editor. Charles E. Lane, Sr., has ordered his Bee "stopped." He was also stung two weeks ago. Fifteen new subscribers were received the same day. If you don't want to be stung by The Bee, don't bother with the Bee-hive. The Parents' League held a large meeting last Tuesday evening at the Metropolitan Church. Speeches were made by Messrs. Horner, Johnson, Todd, Hewlett, Hill and others. The league decided that it would have nothing to do with the private investigation which was to be made of the alleged charges against Mr. Bruce. The league decided to continue its picketing of the Franklin School. The league will meet again next Tuesday evening. PRESIDENT VAN SCHAICK. The Bee congratulates the Board of Education upon the election of Dr. Van Schaick as president and Mr. Henry B. Learned as vicepresident. The people will now be heard. The Bee has no regrets at the retirement of George E. Hamilton. DR. LAMKINS' DEFENSE. The Baptist Correspondent Speaks Out in Defense of His Brethren—A Red-Hot Member. The Baptist Ministers' Conference of Washington and Vicinity, is in the zenith of its glory. It has never been more progressive, more harmonious, or more united than it is at the present time. It is a real joy and a genuine pleasure to visit the conference each Monday at high noon, to witness the cordial greetings and warm-hearted handshakes of the pastors and evangelists, as they come up from their several fields of labor after their Sunday services. They seem to vie with each other in trying to see which can be the most decorous, the most courteous. The Washington Bee the most Christ-like, or who can do the most for his fellow-watchman and the cause of Christ. Pastors who have been following the conference for more than thirty years say that they have never seen it on this wise before. There is no trace of the pharisaical spirit and peacockish demeanor that is too often seen in ministerial conferences and which at one time reared its hydra-head in our midst, until it met its Waterloo at the battle of Armageddon and was decapitated by the sword of the Lord and of Gideon. There are no big I's and little U's in the conference now; we meet as men, as brethren, as Christians, as ministers of the gospel, as God's ambassadors, and as plenipotentiaries of fare are not carnal, but they are heaven. The weapons of our warmighty through God in the pulling down of the strongholds of the devil. We meet on the level. The older ministers of the conference are already seeing visions, and the young men are dreaming dreams of the great campaign that is being mapped out to take Washington for Clirist. The conference is larger than it has ever been since its organization. It is true that a few of the brethren stopped by the wayside; to be more accurate without any castigation, they were dropped by the wayside by order of the conference. But there have come into the conference two for every one that has been dropped. The conference is three times as large as any other single conference of color that meets in the city of Washington and represents a constituency larger than any two combined. Among them can be found some of the ablest and most profound thinkers of the race, leaders in educational and philanthropic work, and some of the most eloquent orators and pastors of the race. Both time and space forbid me to refer to the churches and pastors of the conference individually in this brief communication, but we shall hope to do so in subsequent articles from time to time as occasion may require. I can not resist the temptation, however, to make a brief reference to some of the officers of the conference. The president of the conference, Rev. M. W. D. Norman, D. D., LL. D., the popular pastor of the Metropolitan Baptist Church, is one of the greatest pulpit orators in America, without regard to race or color. He is a parliamentarian of exceptionable ability and rules with ease, grace and dignity. He is noble in stature, commanding in appearance, but is as affable and as gentle as a lamb. Long live Dr. Norman. Rev. Joseph P. Green, D. D., vice president of the conference, is the handsome pastor of the Mount Jezreel Baptist Church. He makes a fine presiding officer and is one of the most progressive pastors in the city. Dr. J. I. Loving, the secretary, is the most faithful scribe that has ever filled the office. He has held the position for more than twenty years. Others come and go, but Loving abides forever. He is the able pastor of the St. John Baptist Church in Virginia. WASHINGTON, D.C. SATURDAY, JULY 12, 1919 is called the pastor of the city, because of his great service to the sick and the afflicted, is the treasurer of the conference. He is better fixed, perhaps, financially, than any other colored pastor in the city. He is also the chairman of the executive committee of the conference and presides with becoming dignity. He is not only a great and good pastor, but one of the best preachers at the Capital of the Nation. Rev. S. Geriah Lamkins is the secretary, of the executive committee and official reporter of the conference. He is the pastor of the McKinley Memorial Baptist Church; corner Fourth and L streets north-west. We shall speak of the other officers and members of the conference in our next report. The Baptist Ministers' Conference of Washington and Vicinity is the most representative organization of its kind in the District of Columbia, and as such is under weight obligations to the people of Washington. Whatever may be said to the contrary, the ministers of the gospel are the leaders of the people. To lead means to go before, to direct, to guide, to show the way. This is the work of the gospel minister. If that is true, and it can not be successfully denied, it follows that the greatest aggregation of leaders of the colored people of the District of Columbia are to be found in the Baptist Ministers' Conference of Washington and Vicinity. They are the only class of leaders whose credentials are issued by the King of Glory, signed in the blood, of the Son of God, and counterigned by the Holy Ghost. They are the only set of men who have authority direct from heaven to demand their support from the people. "He that preaches the gospel must live by the gospel." It is said of all other men that they must eat their bread by the sweat of their faces; but he that administers unto the people in spiritual things shall receive from them carnal things. This brings the people under special obligations to the ministers and the ministers under special obligations to the people. The Baptist Ministers' Conference feels keenly its obligations to the people of Washington and shall govern itself accordingly. In the first place, it shall ever guard its good name and eliminate everything from its midst that may be objectionable according to the word of God, that we may be examples to the flocks over which the Holy Ghost has made us overseers. Secondly, the conference will invite, yea, encourage, free and full discussion on all subjects that may come before it and will respect the honest differences of opinion by its members, so long as they are couched in respectful language. Third, the conference will submit to majority rule. When a member or a set of members have filed their protests against any action or contemplated action by the conference, and a majority of the members of the conference overrule them, they are going to take their medicine like men; they are not going to split. To do so would be to acknowledge in the eyes of intelligent men that they were outwitted, out-generaled and out-voted, and thereby expose their inferiority in influence, in ability and in numerical strength in the body to which they belonged. We will not split; to do so we would be justly branded as secessionists, as bolters, as rebels, unwilling to be governed by constituted authority or Baptist Church polity. We could not face our people and talk about love and union, while we ourselves occupied such a ridiculous position. We Bruce to Go feel that if we can not live together here, we can not live together in heaven. "He that says he loves God, whom he has not seen, and hateth his brother, with whom he walks and talks every day, is a liar, and the truth is not in him." "A new commandment I give unto you, that you love one another, as I have loved you. By this shali all men know that ye are My disciples, indeed." Let Brotherly Love Continue. The Baptist Ministers' Conference of Washington and vicinity, of which Dr. M. W. D. Norman is the president and Dr. J. I. Loving secretary, is greatly elated over the success that has attended each session of the conference recently. New members are joining most every Monday. We are not, however, in a boastful mood. We are only sinners, saved by grace, and (Continued to 8th page.) BLACK HAWK SOUNDS THE TOCSON OF RACE John R. Bates Declares Nothing Can Be Sound or Wise or Tolerated Under a Competitive-Appointing School System Which Weakens or Destroys Self-Reliant Ability—No Thing Can Be Endured Which, Inures Us to the Idea of Classes or Closes the Door of Opportunity and Hope to Those Who Chance to Be Born Outside the Charmed Circle of Color, Property and Influence. The colored people of Washington having established their public schools, and determined that they should not be destroyed either from without or from within, the most important question that remains is the selection of the agents who shall administer their government. As the future of the colored American race in this country lies in the development of their sons and daughters, the destiny of the race is swayed if not determined by the character of the agents in charge of their mental and spiritual development. It is the duty of every citizen to demand that the very best agents be intrusted with this immense power and responsibility. Nearly all of us have had some experience in politics. All of us know that if you can control the primary organization—and the primary organization determines who is to come afterward—having control of the primary organization, you can hold control forever. So here in the colored public schools, in the appointment of teachers, primary control is vested in Mr. Bruce, and he can continue to control by letting in or keeping out whomsoever he pleases. Regardless of the qualifications of an applicant, it is not difficult to tell how this power has been used. Today more than 20,000 parents and citizens are demanding the removal of an agent in charge of the mental and spiritual development of their sons and daughters on the grounds that he has by acts of omission and commission lost the confidence and respect of the 20,000 petitioners and his usefulness as a public servant is gone. I maintain that agents filling such high, responsible positions must so live and conduct themselves in the community that their names and acts will be above suspicion, and the general dissatisfaction with the discharge of the duties of Assistant Superintendent of Colored Schools is based on discrimination. From time to time there are rumors, suspicions and occasionally proofs of the rankest sort of discriminations in the selections of teachers for the schools. From time to time a belief that Mr. Bruce has been deaf to the considerations of the public interest and has allowed personal favoritism to supplant the people's desire to select the best public servants, that their children may be carefully nurtured and educated with qualities of absolute regards for morality and decorum. The Moens scandal in the colored public schools brought the Parents' League into being. Today they are leading the fight for a clean, decent school system to which to send their children, and are determined to stamp out every condition found to be detrimental to their welfare in their efforts to secure an education. The public schools are nearer and dearer to the individual citizen than any other public institution, and whenever the question of their management arises there is no neutral ground on which one can stand. No citizen can relieve himself of a performance of those duties that pertain to matters essentially local. If there is any one proposition that may be said in every sense to be of local concern individualized by the people it is the manner of conducting their local public schools. Many for personal reasons hesitate to come out and take an active part in the fight, but the underground railroad is open to them to answer the agonizing cries of these fathers and mothers, and if you fail to answer their prayers, I do I wish to remind those people who may seek to remain neutral that in these days of new apostles for democracy and vote for the Negroes and the advent of woman suffrage their action toward their local affairs might bring up this question: Whenever a people shall cease to have the intelligence and the patriotism and the pride to conduct their public school system in a proper way, protected from vice, corruption and dishonesty, how long would the government last in their hands? The hour is big with the fate of the Negro in this country. The consequences flowing from the steps about to be taken must inevitably affect all shades and tongues of the living and may even concern the destiny of shadowy tots yet unborn. A situation so tragic demands the attention of every loyal citizen of the city. Let no citizen be led to think that we shall ever get a man who can fill the position of Assistant Superintendent satisfactorily to all concerned. But the man who fills this high office must be a man who does not lie. We measure people by the degree of their sincerity and honesty, by the degree of our confidence in them. Some, we trust always and everywhere and we never question their integrity; others we can do business with if we watch them. Many of us have a wrong idea of what honesty means. We are such worshippers of the dollar that our chief idea of honesty is associated with money or its equivalent—property. There is nothing we can say of a human being so praiseworthy as that he is honest, clean and white to the very core of his being. A man may be a great genius, a giant in intellect, but great brilliance of mind cannot be compared with plain, simple, downright honesty of character. Every other virtue or quality is discounted in comparison. In every community there are persons who carry weight and influence out of all proportion to their ability because of their high moral standards — because they stand for the right and are not for sale. The man who is righteously right, righteously true, righteously clean in his life, righteously genuine, who flings open the door of his mind and heart and has nothing to fear, is the man who moves the world. A man who stands four-square to the world immeasurably fixed in his principles is the most precious possession of any community. He makes every foot of land worth more and all his neighbors a little prouder because he is one of them. Everybody feels a little happier and safer because he is their townsman. My friend, the power of a good name, a reputation for honor, honesty, manliness in any profession, any business, in any condition, anywhere on this earth, cannot be measured. It does not matter how much or how little property you have, a good name is legal tender anywhere on the globe. It speaks any language. You cannot measure its value by any low standard. It is absolutely priceless. --- By Leo S. Osman. The Indians are not the only people gifted in herbology. The colored people that inhabit the East Indies, South America, South Sea Islands, Patagonia, Africa and other tropical countries are equally gifted. The colored people in the interior parts of Africa possess a knowledge of medicinal properties of healing plants which is really surprising, and by consequence they are rarely afflicted by disease. The art of healing in Sumatra is very wonderful; they use the plants, herbs, and roots in every form for healing every ailment; they make tea and drink it; they boil herbs and bathe the body; they grind the roots and take them in powder form, and they also apply the leaf of certain plants upon the afflicted part, and they get well and rarely die from disease. The Sumatran colored healer has great skill. They have a great and wonderful knowledge of herbology; they cure where our regular doctor fails to cure. They become acquainted at an early age not only with the names but also the qualities and properties of every healing shrub, root and herb that grows in their wonderful country. The herbs of great medicinal powers are not the same in our country as those found in Mexico, Chile, South America, India, Africa and other countries. There is a great difference in the climate, soil constituents, heat, moisture and altitude of situation, hence their action is stronger. In one of my wonderful remedies I have a root that cannot be found anywhere but in the Southeastern coast of Africa, in the neighborhood of Mozambique. The root is dug up in the dry season in the month of March by the natives, cut in slices, strung on cords and hung up to dry. In the drying process only the water is evaporated, and the bitter acid high medicinal powers remain intact for years. This is only one of the many wonderful ingredients our healing remedies contain. We believe rightly that there is not a single disease in man, which includes woman, that may not have its remedy or cure in some herb or other, in this or that portion of the world, agreeable to the providence of Nature. As the proverb says, "There are sermons in stones and books in running brooks;" so we behold volumes of wisdom in all the herbal kingdom, in every emerald and variegated leaf, in every tinted blossom—in all there is a voiceless language, eternally singing significant psalms in praise of "Him who doeth all things well."

Of those lynched twenty-five were Negroes and three were white. Seven of those put to death were charged with the crime of rape. One woman is reported to have been lynched. The States in which lynchings occurred and the number for each State are as follows: Alabama, 3; Arkansas, 4; Florida, 2; Georgia, 3; Louisiana, 4; Mississippi, 7; Missouri, 1; North Carolina, 2; South Carolina, 1; Texas, 1.

None of these crimes against the honor of womanhood ever existed in the dark days of slavery, and neither can they be placed against the native colored citizens of Washington, who believe in law and order. There was a time when females could walk the public streets at any hour of the night unniolested; there was a time when unprotected females, white and black, could run to the black man for protection without fear. The recent outrages that have startled all Washington are charged against the black man, which will cast suspicion on other innocent colored citizens. Suspicious looking colored men will be shunned by every female, although they would die in protecting the honor of a female, white or black. The Bee, on behalf of the law-abiding citizens of Washington, wants it understood that such crimes deserve the severest punishment, and if the perpetrators of the recent dastardly deeds should be caught, let such punishment be given that will deter all others in the future. No such crimes as these have ever been charged against a Washingtonian. Has education been a failure to this young generation? It seems to The Bee that the more schools we have the more dangerous many become as menaces to society. Some of the most degenerate may be found among some of the supposedly cultured class, as was demonstrated in the recent trial of this alleged scientist, Prof. Moens, in which so many alleged intelligent colored people were involved, and the attempt of this intelligent class to place the blame on the servant element. The Bee cites this case to show that education does not seem to civilize certain classes of colored people. The native Washingtonians are guiltless of such outrages, and when these scoundrels are caught, hanging is too honorable for them. Major Pullman, throw away your color prejudice and appoint colored men on the police force. We should not forget the case of an assault on a New York avenue car between Fiftieth and Fifty-seventh streets northeast some few months ago by two white car officials upon a colored woman. Remember, nothing was said about it; no alarm was sounded; and nothing has been done. Nobody has threatened to lynch these white men. Let the law take its course. A SUGGESTION TO MAJOR PULLMAN. Washington is becoming the greatest crime center in the United States. The number of murders and hold-ups are something fearful. The Bee wishes to make a few friendly suggestions to Major Pullman. First. Have Congress to pass a law compelling every male citizen in the District of Columbia to adopt some legitimate occupation. In short, see that every male citizen is doing some kind of work. See that he registers and that those who fail to register be brought into court, and, if found guilty, given a term in the workhouse. Second. Compel every male citizen in the District of Columbia who is able to work to do some kind of work. Third. Have certain hours for pool room recreation, allow no man to be idle who is able to work, and compel every citizen who is at work to keep a daily diary of his whereabouts. Fourth. Let there be no idle person to exist in this city. Let every citizen who is at work have in his or her possession a card of identification—a kind of passport. This card will show that the bearer is a law-abiding and industrious citizen. Let the law be so specific that no idle person may be allowed to walk the streets of Washington. Fifth. Establish a colored police precinct, to be officered by colored men only. Appoint a few competent colored men on the police force. There is a way to stop so much crime at the Capital of the Nation, if the proper methods are used. The Bee has no sympathy for any brute who assaults a female, and when he is caught, let him be turned over to the proper law officers and be tried according to law. Let the trial and conviction be speedy. WE CONDEMN IT. The Bee takes this opportunity to tell colored citizens are as much in fear of the law to justice as any class of Anzio that the recent crimes committed will be law-abiding citizens in this community. Minor of a female should be severely should have been guilty of such outraged. Hanging for such scoundrels in punishment should be inflicted. This crime never was in such a condition. Write or colored, to walk the public a short being insulted. Major Pullman, give us a colored provement in conditions. Be broad acers and precinct detectives or plain a model for other cities. is opportunity to say to the live as much in favor of bride any class of American cities committed will not militate in this community. Any rule should be severely punished. City of such outrages as recount scoundrels is too honor inflicted. This city during the condition. It is danger talk the public streets, and give us a colored precinct, sons. Be broad and give the detectives or plain-clothes moities. The Bee takes this opportunity to say to the people in this city that colored citizens are as much in favor of bringing these violators of the law to justice as any class of American citizens. The Bee hopes that the recent crimes committed will not militate in the least against the law-abiding citizens in this community. Any man who outrages the honor of a female should be severely punished. None but a brute would have been guilty of such outrages as recently have been committed. Hanging for such soundrels is too honorable. A more severe punishment should be inflicted. This city during the War of the Rebellion never was in such a condition. It is dangerous for any female, white or colored, to walk the public streets, and impossible to do so without being insulted. Major Pullman, give us a colored precinct, and you will see an improvement in conditions. Be broad and give the city a few colored officers and precinct detectives or plain-clothes men. This city should be a model for other cities. The Bee condemns these outrages.

GOVERNOR LOWDEN OF ILLINOIS There is one man in the Presidential race who has the respect and confidence of the people—Governor Lowden of Illinois. He has the appearance and make-up of Presidential timber. HOUSING SITUATION. "While the housing situation in Washington is about as acute as ever," says Attorney King, "still it is gratifying to know that the colored people are becoming home owners at a rapid rate." Continuing, he said that during the twenty odd years he has practiced law in this city, he has been in close touch with the real estate dealings, and never before has he witnessed such activity along these lines. It is bound to be of real and lasting benefit to the race, says the lawyer. Mr. King says that so many people are holding back because of the idle rumor about how certain persons lost so much in an effort to purchase a home or because they don't know how easy it is. Very many such rumors are absolutely untrue, and in other cases the parties attempting to purchase were at fault in that they did not live up to the agreement, and in other cases the purchaser never fully understood the agreement, or just how much he was to pay in order to keep his property. Mr. King states that he has never had a party to whom he has sold a house to lose out because he is very careful in explaining all details. The purchaser is at a big advantage in buying a house through a lawyer of Mr. King's experience, as the legal obligations of the transaction are fully explained, as well as other matters. Attorney King has carefully listed several hundred houses for sale in different sections of the city, at prices ranging from $1,000 to $10,000, and will cheerfully explain terms of purchase to anyone wishing to buy, and if he finds that your income will not allow you to meet the terms, in his judgment, he will not advise you to buy. He will be frank and honest with you. His office is 317 Sixth street northwest. Phone Main 5975. AWARDED FLAGS. At a recent meeting of the Original Parent-Teachers' Association, silk American flags were presented to the following members as a reward for long and faithful services in the community: Dr. A. A. Russell, president of the association; Mrs. A. Dean, manager; Mrs. Rachel Tolson, treasurer; Mrs. K. Johnson, financial secretary. The presentation speech was made by Miss O. G. Hutchins, one of the teachers of Alfred Jones School, where the Parent-Teachers' Association had its birth, who recounted their many noble deeds. A social time followed the transaction of business, and plans were made for the celebration of the tenth anniversary. SOLDIERS AT THE WALTER REED ENTERTAINED. Plymouth Congregational Church, corner Seventeenth and P streets, Rev. A. C. Garner, pastor, entertained the soldiers of Walter Reed and St. Elizabeth's Hospitals on the lawn of the church last Saturday evening at 6 o'clock. There were 50-odd of the wounded soldiers who enjoyed the program and edibles. Mr. Louis N. Brown and Mrs. Charlotte Wallace Murray were the musical attractions. The pastor of the church and Messrs. Aiken and Edington made short sneeches. Mrs. Catherine Cole was the chairman of the committee on entertainment. This recreation for the soldiers is part of a program for encouraging our convalescent soldiers by the churches. The committee on the welfare of soldiers and sailors of the Y. M. C. A., under Lieut. Aiken, is organizing this work in our city, and the churches have responded nobly. The silver loving cup donated by private subscription to the highest point winner in the Playground Swimming Meet, July 4, is now in the possession of A. Bell, who scored 24 points. His nearest competitor, E. Davis, scored 14, and T. Jackson was third, with 13. The competition was of the keenest sort. Midget. 25 yards—Won by T. Jackson; second, F. Ellis; third, H. Wood.

Satisfaction guaranteed. Phone N. 4576-w T12-1t A LONG TRAIL. I have just seen the Board of Education in action. The impression is certainly not such as one might expect. There was something lacking of dignity and poise in its deliberations. The president would certainly be taken for a man in almost any other work but educational. When things did not go to his liking, he grew red in the face, talked very loudly, pounded with the gavel and gesticulated. One member moved to adjourn while another member was on the floor speaking. There are, however, two or three splendid faces among the members. When the Bruce wrangle came up, the tension was felt by all. It was handled as though it were a TNT bomb. Finally, through careless handling, it did explode. Two things were decided upon by the board, on motion of Dr. Learned. First, the board sees no ground for bringing Mr. Bruce to trial. Secondly, there will be a secret investigation some time "soon." How "soon" the board refused to say. The board was asked if the Parents' League or any other organization or person would be allowed to present its side, of the Bruce case, call witnesses and hear the proceedings. The answer was "No"; the board will call whom it chooses and investigate at the time, to the extent and in the way it deems best. The signs were posted, "No Trespassing." Will not the demand of 20,000 people be heard? was another question. The demand of 20,000 people counts for nothing in this case; it was stated. "There might be 20,000 people for Mr. Bruce as well as against him," was the illuminating answer given. And so the case drags on. The pickets are busy each board meeting, and Mr. Bruce seems well defended by his friends. THE ABYSSINIAN DELEGATION. Mr. DeReef Miller of The Bee and Leon Thompson, a representative of a Tennessee paper had an interview with the Abyssinian delegation at the Hotel LaFayette Wednesday morning. The interview was short, because the delegation had an appointment with the President, hence it could not entertain the delegates from the Race Conference. MT. AIRY CHURCH NEWS Rev. M. F. Harris, the founder of the Royal Order of Jonavid of America, has a movement on foot which is destined to become a great project for the race. He is planning to erect a great publishing-plant in this city, which will give employment to hundreds of our boys and girls. He needs, however, the hearty cooperation of the people, and with that the plant can soon be on a running basis, and employment given to a few of our boys and girls immediately. On last Thursday night at the church the following officers were elected: Rev. M. F. Harris, president; Mr. Wm. Morris, vice president; Mr. S. M. Charles, recording secretary; Mrs. Young, assistant recording secretary; Mrs. M. F. Harris, financial secretary; Mr. Patrick, assistant financial secretary; Mr. Richmond, treasurer. The executive board appointed was as follows: Rev. Harris, Messrs. Wm. Harris, Murry, S. M. Charles and M. Richmond, Mesdames Alice Jackson and A. Patten. The enterprise shall be known as the National Enterprise Publishing Company. The stock is $10 a share; terms, $1 down and $1 per month. Come and join us, and let us put this great movement on foot, that in years to come our children will rise up and call us blessed. *** Misses Louise Davis and Alice Pletcher are visiting friends in New York and New Jersey. We wish them a pleasant vacation. JONES SCHOOL LEADS. Five Prizes Won at Jones School This Year. There were five prizes won by the pupils of Jones School this year. Two of the prizes were won by the eighth grade class for excellence in English, one of them being a German helmet offered by the Victory Liberty Loan Association, the other a gold coin awarded by the Junior Red Cross and the Tuberculosis Association. The other three were handsome pennants awarded to the fourth, fifth and sixth grade classes for the excellence of their work in the Health Crusade. It is fitting to state that this is the fourth prize for excellence in English that has been awarded the pupils of the eighth grade of this class in four years. The other two were for the best composition on "Kindness to Animals" and on "The Life of Booker T. Washington." The former prize was awarded by the Humane Society, the latter by the citizens of the District of Columbia. DR. E. G. EVANS. One of the most successful and popular dentists in this city has returned from Columbia College, New York, where he has been taking up a new line in dentistry. Dr. Evans is a remarkable man in the art of dentistry. He has made an innovation in his profession, and no man is more entitled to be mentioned favorably than he, because he keeps up with the times for the benefit of the people whom he serves. Dr. Evans is a bachelor and more than likely he will remain so for some time, which is a shame to society. Some fair damsel should see to it that he is not permitted to continue to run at large. SPECIAL NOTICE. My husband, Mr. Harry E. Arnold, availed himself of a legal remedy, publishing in a local newspaper of the 5th inst. a notice to the public that he would no longer be responsible for bills contracted by others aside from himself, which naturally includes his wife: This is a measure the law allows to protect husbands against the extravagancies of inconsiderate wives. In all my married life I have never contracted one bill in my husband's name, even for the necessaries of life, without his consent. On the contrary, I have protected my husband against claims and other transactions for twenty years, and still stand ready to protect him whenever claims are presented, provided they are for his actual necessaries. Mrs. Daisy Coleman Arnold. ad-j. 12-1t THE SHEPARDS. Mrs. C. D. Shepard, of Durham, N. C., mother of Dr. James E. Shepard and Miss Anna Day Shepard, his daughter, accompanied by Dr. Shepard, passed through the city last Saturday evening.

Dr. Shepard is booked for several speeches in the West before his return to Durham. Mrs. Shepard is a most venerable Southern lady, and Miss Anna Day Shepard is one of the brightest young misses, from the South. The Misses Helen and Natalie Lee, of 1203 T street northwest, met the Durhamites at the station and saw them off. FORAKER JULY 3. Grand Exalted Ruler A. W. Scott Sees Himself and Lodges on the Screen—Several Hundred Crowd Theatre—Mr. Byers Complimented. There were several hundred people present at the Foraker Theatre last Thursday, July 3rd, to witness several thousand feet of films of the Elks in Detroit, Mich., and Grand Exalted Ruler Scott, who is at the head of the Elks. Prior to the presentation of this great organization several vaudeville acts were introduced, which were interesting. The parade of the Elks, with Grand Exalted Ruler Scott responding to the great demonstration in his honor, was quite natural and as real as if one had been present, on that occasion. Prior to the presentation of this picture Manager R. G. Byers introduced Editor W. Calvin Chase, who made a brief address highly commending the success of the Elks and Exalted Ruler Scott and Manager Byers for giving the people an opportunity- to witness that great parade. Mr. Chase was followed by J. Finley Wilson, editor of The Eagle, who made a very enthusiastic address complimentary of Manager Byers and congratulating the Elks on having such a man as Mr. Scott at their head. The next and last speaker introduced by Manager Byers was Judge Robert H. Terrell, who delivered one of his humorous speeches to the delight and approbation of all present. The Elks Band rendered many popular musical selections, after which Mr. Byers was made a member of the Elks. ANDREW J. THOMAS. Manager Andrew J. Thomas and his assistant, Vincent, Thomas, have introduced new features in their theatre. 'During the summer months the Howard will show high-class pictures. These pictures will be the best that can be produced anywhere in the United States. The pictures that are now running at the Howard will undoubtedly meet the approval of lovers of pictures. The management will do everything to meet the taste of the people. The supper show pictures are different from those shown at night. The same picture is never shown at any two shows. This week the Howard Theatre has surpassed itself. The supper show continues to be popular with the masses. The coming fall and winter season will be an improvement on all past efforts of the management, and it feels grateful for the encouragement that has been given. The pictures this week are remarkable and seem to meet the popular approval of the patrons. Pictures shown are varied to meet all classes and religions. Go and enjoy a fine picture. If you are too early for the supper show, try to attend the evening performance. This theatre has catered to the masses, irrespective of color or condition. The management has done more for the pleasure of the people than any theatrical producer in the city. It is the only theatre of its character to meet the demands of the people. During the production of the pictures there are only reserved sections. HALLS HILL, VA. The Citizens' Association of Halls Hill has succeeded itself in being established in our midst, and with such men as Mr. J. M. Hudson, president; Mr. J. W.

Ballard, together with their children, Emery and Lydia Wright and Kenneth and Charles Ballard. They visited for an hour with her son, William Ferguson, on the big ship Utah, then lying out in the Hudson and soon to leave for other waters. The trip was very romantic and enjoyable. *** Mt.

READ DAILY for Breakfast --- Close 12 Midnight In July, 1896, I published a statement, widely circulated at the time in the North, calling attention to the vote polled for the Democratic members of Congress in the South as compared with the vote cast for Republicans in the North. I then recited the fact that, in 1902, John Sharp Williams, the Democratic floor leader in the House of Representatives, was elected upon 1,433 votes, while Mr. Cannon, the Republican leader in Congress, was elected upon 22,941 votes. Mr. Williams of Mississippi had no opponent. The opponent of Mr. Cannon of Illinois received 15,245 votes. The entire delegation of seven was elected from Mississippi that same year upon a vote of 18,058. Seven Democrats were elected to Congress from South Carolina in 1892 on a total vote of 29,343, while the combined vote in Mr. Crumpacker's district in Indiana was 46,158. The Southern Democracy undertook to excuse this situation by stating that "everything was settled in the Democratic primary." These Southern Democratic leaders knew that the fact that they controlled the machinery of elections is what settled their domination. The election to ratify the present disfranchisement constitution of Alabama was held November 11, 1901. The vote counted for its ratification was 108,613, against 81,734. The county of Dallas, with 2,525 white and 9,871 colored male citizens of voting age, returned 8,125 votes for ratification. So it was in the other black belt counties of the State that the black belt frauds were piled up to count in the fundamental laws to eliminate the masses of the people from voting. The colored voters in the black belt were returned as having voted to disfranchise themselves, and this asset was employed to disfranchise the plain white people of the hill counties, who voted majorities against ratification. There were, at the time this State constitution went into effect, 232,294 white and 181,471 colored male citizens of voting age' in Alabama, a total of 413,765. There is no disputing the fact that everything is now settled in the Democratic primaries, and it must also be noted that it does not require so many Democratic votes to settle who is to be, the office-holding beneficiaries of the new political slavery. In a State ruled by 100,000 Democratic voters, it is easily to be seen that any candidate who gets more than half this number of votes is then practically elected governor or United States Senator, as the case may be. Alabama now has about 300,000 white and 200,000 colored male citizens of voting age, and these 500,000 males of the age eligible to vote are ruled by just a few thousand more than 50,000 Democratic ballots. With an audacity that is more than brazen, an effrontery that ought to be viewed as insulting to ordinary intelligence, this is the sort of Southern Democracy now asuming to lead the nation in championing world democracy for everywhere abroad and discussing, for other countries than our own, the principles of government by the consent of the governed. It is difficult to imagine a more colossal piece of political buncombe. The first general election held in Alabama under the new acts was held in November, 1902. There were about 65,000 votes cast for the Democratic candidate for governor and 25,000 for the Republican candidate, in all a vote of 90,000. It would seem that the rest of the country could now understand that it is themselves and their political machine that they want let alone, as the Southern Democracy pleads "to let the South alone," and that the Southern Democracy is not the white-South but purely a political loaded dice. It is this pernicious system of political buccaneering that the Southern Democracy wishes the rest of the country not to disturb.

Grant, I then told those present of the plans and motives of disfranchisement and warned the people of the nation as against, the insidious propaganda of the Southern Democracy and the employment of the alleged race issue as a cloak for the aggressions of the Southern Democracy upon free government in the Southern States. Some years afterwards I spoke at the Twentieth Century Club in Boston on the subject of the repressed South detailing how the plain white people of the South were made subjects of the political oligarchy, and, following each address in the North, I was arraigned by the newspapers in the South as an "enemy to the South." I was warned that I should "stay with the Northern Yankees"; that "up there in the North was where I belonged," while one leading Democratic newspaper in Alabama said that "it spoke volumes for the State" that I was permitted to return to it. I had done nothing more than recite the facts. This they did not dispute. What they were enraged about, was my having told the truth concerning this Southern Democratic political devilry. In doing this, in speaking upon the record of the Southern Democracy, I had become "an enemy to the South" During the years I was postmaster in Alexander City, Ala., 1901 to 1909, a Democratic leader in that town, who was the reputed father of colored children, always referred to the writer of this work as a "nigger Republican," with the purpose in mind of having those with whom he conversed that "a Republican is no better than a nigger." It was in that vicinity, near around and about, that peonage was practiced to such an extent that the Federal Government finally intervened, while the colored man was considered there as no more than a creature of subserviency for brutal Southern Democrats of the character here referred to at Alexander City. (To be continued.) DUBOIS DEFENDED. Editor of The Bee: In last week's New York News an executive officer of the Washington branch of the N. A. A. C. P. made a defense for Mr. Emmett J. Scott, of the War Department and Tuskegee, and in so doing took occasion to publicly assail Dr. DuBois, of the National Association. I don't know whether Mr. Scott is a member of the N. A. A. C. P. or not; but it is rather unfortunate that dissensions and disagreements should be aired in the public press to the detriment of the organization. If Dr. DuBois does not fill the bill, there ought to be some way to improve upon the editorship of the Crisis. As an organ of an association waging war for human rights, I am of the opinion of the Washington critic, that some of the allegorical stories and other lesser matter might be dispensed with in the Crisis, but in the light of Dr. DuBois' statement of the intent of his war program and in view of the threatened and recent actual suppression of the magazine, thousands of people who may not count for much are willing to concede that the wisdom of the editor was in keeping with his usual superior intelligence. It is perfectly apparent to most people that the camouflage, editorials and attitudes assumed by Dr. DuBois were as essential to the schemes for detecting the plans of the enemies of the race as is the use of camouflage in the bloody war of reality. The documents appearing in the late number of the Crisis coupled with the opinions of the editor are so astounding, so unbelievable, that but to be sure of their authenticity is sufficient to drive the members of any race worthy of the appellation into a phalanx, of solidarity. Believing his explanations in the Crisis, and judging from the results obtained, it is my opinion that had he secured that commission in the department of military intelligence, Mr. Scott might have been made aware of the venomous propaganda to discredit and injure the character and fame of Negro soldiery. With respect to the criticism that followed the seeming conversion of Dr. DuBois to ultra-conservatism, I might say that there should be more tolerance of the capable men of the race who live in the lion's den and who, but for some camouflage would be able to do but little to leaven the lump in the center of which they live. This leaven in the communities of the Southland that is making the more handicapped members of the race grow in self-repect and desire to be truly free, is as efficacious a force as the stimuli attacking from long range. I hold my brief for Dr. DuBois, and the editorial in the Crisis that evoked such wide criticism was stunning to me, but I say, let us close ranks within the organization and present a solid front. Whereas there may be reasons for radical differences of opinion within the organization, and since, it is hardly possible that Dr. DuBois will find it convenient to take counsel with all the radical and conservative elements in the N. A. A. C. P. before he adopts a policy, he is going to err and disturb the feelings of some, but the morale of the rank and file of the association is sure to suffer by publication of items of discord. Let the enemy without be the ones to adopt that style of attack. Let us in our conclaves air our grievances and enjoy the sport of smashing idols. See'y Falls Church (Va.) Branch, N. A. A. C.

W. OPEN SATURDAYS 9 TO 6 "Washington's Oldest Hair Store" called by God to do the work of the gospel ministry, and His banner over us is Love. While it is true that we have a greater number of able gospel preachers than any other conference in the city and a greater number of the larger churches pastored by the members of our conference than any other conference, and while we own or represent more church property than any other conference and pay taxes on more real and personal property than any other conference here, we do not feel that we have anything to boast of. There are many things to be considered before one man or a set of men should attempt to boast over their fellowman. Some preachers boast Because they are fortunate enough to be pastors of larger churches than others. It does not necessarily follow because a man is a pastor of a larger church than another that he is a better preacher. He may be and he may not be. Some men boast because they live in a better home than some of their brethren. While it is a cause for congratulation, it should not be for boasting. Some ministers boast of the texture of their hair and complexion of their faces. It is the texture of the brain and the complexion of the heart that counts with us. We subscribe to the doctrine of the immortal Frederick Douglass, to wit, "a man is a man for all that." Some boast of the fact that they have never been accused of any offense. Of course, they set themselves up as being better than Jesus Christ, who was charged with being the chief of devils. The biggest thieves are not always caught; there are plenty of them roaming the streets of our large cities, wearing long faces and sanctified looks. If a man is pure and clean himself—which every man ought to be—before boasting he should ask himself if his parents were upright and were his grandparents perpendicular. Water can never rise above its source, and children are never greater than their parents. It makes no difference how many colleges they may pass through, they have no other blood in their veins than that which coursed through the veins of their parents. The Negro must get in line with the onward march of the civilization of the twentieth century and seek to combine his forces for constructive work. This is no time for division. We must stay together. We must work for the common good of all under the old banner, baptized in the blood of Jesus, unfurled to the breeze, with the inscription upon its folds. "One Lord, One Faith, and One Baptism." Let us fight in the union, whether we are large or small, in our own estimation or the estimation of the people. We must be union men or "scab." If we are a little man working out of union of Christian fellowship and brotherly love, we are little "scabs." If we are big men, working out of union and out of harmony and Christian fellowship and brotherly love, we are big "scabs." Let brotherly love continue. "Little children, love ye one another.

OUT OF DANGER Seriously Injured Son of Attorney Improving Rapidly. Some few days ago little Armond W. Scott, Jr., the only son of Attorney and Mrs. Armond W. Scott, was seriously injured by accidentally falling upon the spikes that form part of the iron fence in front of their home on Eleventh street northwest. The spikes nearly pierced his intestines, and for a while the little fellow's life was considered beyond medical skill. Dr. Williston was sent for immediately and gave him temporary relief. For several days Dr. Williston held out little hope for his life. The little fellow is now out of danger and is able to sit up, much to the gratification of Mr. and Mrs. Scott and their many friends.
