Austin, Ebenezer Baptist Church. The presiding officer or this occasion was Rev. Wesley Wheeler, who is an employee of the National Savings & Trust Co. A vokiferous applause followed the reading of an original poem which was the history of the church, by Mr. George Timus, the church clerk, which follows: The Foundation of this great Church was fixed, Upon this spot of ground in Eighteen sixty-six. Like the mustard seed and little piece of heaven, They started off, with only seven. Encouched upon our Record book, The Founder's name is John H. Brooks. His ways and manners pleased the people, And many said he looked like Jesus. Through the preaching of this Son of Thunder, The membership soon reached Fifteen hundred. Here Brooks toiled on till Eighteen eighty-four, When God said, "John, don't preach no more." Now Brooks has gone, their hopes are shattered, Some of the flock begin to scatter. The Praying part, on bended knees, Cries, "Help us, Master, if you please." God's cause on earth can't go to naught, We see another leader coming forth. In answer to that fervant prayer, we see, God sends a robust man, Rev. George W. Lee. The gospel plain he always preached, Yet never failed men's heart to reach. His theme or subject always ran, Jesus said, "Ye must be born again." A handsome monument to Lee is raised, For which the Church receives much praise. But a greater and lasting monument was begun, When the mantle fell on "Willis;" our own son. The death of Lee, brings about another change, Willis comes upon the scene, providentially arrang The death of Lee, brings about another change, Willis comes upon the scene, providentially arranged. A difference in men's opinions, Will certainly bring on a division. Man looks upon the outer part, But God saw down in "Willis" heart. An argument, they would not quit, So soon we found the Church had split. We missed some members from the pews, But these were not the faithful few.

Mr. John Lewis, founder of the White Law Hotel, and President of the Bank, 11th and U Streets, worshipped at Union Wesley Church Sunday, the 24th. After the sermon he was introduced by Dr. Jones to the congregation, and talked to them very earnestly about self help and the contemplated erection of the new hotel for the accommodation of our people in Atlantic City. Keep on, Mr. Lewis, you are pursuing the right course. Let us in this generation lay economic, spiritual and intellectual foundations so deeply that unborn generations may be able to build structures so great that they, too, may become potent factors in the worlds reconstruction.

Dr. Jones of Union Wesley Church, 23rd Street between L and M Streets Northwest, preached a most eloquent sermon Sunday morning, July 24th, to a crowded house. Many handkerchiefs were brought into requisition to dry the tear-bed-dimmed eyes. *** Dr. Jones will begin his vacation the second Sunday in August. He needs the rest, for he has labored earnestly and arduously, and his people do all in their power to co-operate with him in his work. *** This church has bought the adjoining property, and are preparing to enlarge the house of worship. Your scribe thinks they should purchase the house on the corner and erect a building so magnificent that unborn generations will arise and May the Lord bless the pastor in all of his efforts, "and make his face the late Hon.

In a few choice words the told of the needs of the work, at 1135 New Jersey Avenue, after which the pastor said through the trustees that Mrs. Williams would receive financial help for the nursery. Many of the members gave their names as members of the Day Nursery Association. *** The splendid choir of Union Wesley will begin their vacation the second Sunday in August, returning after the second Sunday in September. Their places will be filled by the Endeavor Choir and the Young People's Choir. We missed our organist so very much, who was absent on account of personal illness. May God soon restore her to health is the prayer of the church. Mrs. Jones, the wife of the pastor, played the piano for the church services because of the absence of Miss Virginia L. Williams, our organist, Sunday, July 244. The Sunday School and all the activities of our church continue to do great work. THE DOINGS OF SHILOH BAPTIST CHURCH. The Sunday School of Shiloh Baptist Church held its annual outing and field day at the Zoological Park. There was a contest between the Reds and the Blues as to which side would carry out the largest number of persons to the picnic. When we went to press, this contest had not been decided. The Sunday School scholars and teachers engaged in racing, foot ball, lawn tennis. Everybody had a good time and they did not dance either. *** The Missionary Society held its monthly meeting at the home of the pastor on Friday night of this week, at which time Mrs. M. M. Waldron and the pastor, Dr. Waldron, were elected delegates to the Lott Carey Convention, which meets the last of August in Newark, N. J. The Church, Sunday School and various young people's societies are planning to send liberal contributions in cash and large numbers of garments which they have made for the children and women in the different mission stations. *** The Christian Endeavor Society will hold public religious services in Linger's Court Northwest, for one hour on each Sunday during the month of August. Licensed ministers, Olive Barksdale and Henry Lewis, will assist the visiting pastors in conducting these services. The friends and members of the society are invited to attend these meetings. *** A large number of the members of the church have left for the seashore, mountain resorts and summer homes, but those who are left, along with the pastor and officers, are pushing the battle to the gate. There are quite a number of sick persons in the church, among them being the chairman of the Trustee Board and Clerk of the Church, Mr. William H. Scott; Mrs. Delia Jeter of Church Street, Mrs. Ella Rawlings of 24th Street, Mrs. Annie Nervis, Miss Eva and Miss Elinor Pitts of 23rd Street, Mrs. Murphy of H Street. Notwithstanding the warm weather the choir holds up well, and is rendering unusually good music. Mrs. Mary R. Reid is in charge of the organ in the absence of Prof. Syphax. In order to encourage the study of the Scriptures and to give everybody who desires to do so an opportunity to attend the People's Bible School at the Church, the session is held on Wednesday night from 9 to 10 u. m. Rev. Dr. Waldron is teacher of this school, and it is open to all whether they are members of the church or not. *** As next Sunday is the fifth Sunday the pastor is planning extra sermons and unusually interesting services morning and night. There was baptism at the close of the morning service last Sunday, and for quite a while during the summer the pastor has baptized almost every Sunday. Y. W. C. A. NOTES.

Board of Trustees, J. Milton Waldron, Pres SOCIAL NOTES. By Ralph H. Coates. The Midsummer Novelty Dansante given by members of the Big Time Four Hundred Pleasure Club, at the residence of Miss Annie Green Monday evening, July 18, was a success in every way. The gathering was the gayest of the season, being staged by the following: Messrs. Ralph Coates, William Anderson, Eugene Coates, Ralph Barbour, Alfonsa English, Arthur E. Brooks and Bernard Tyler. The beautifully gowned damselfs were really a fine lot to behold, and every one seemed filled to the overflowing with congeniality. Punch, ice cream and cake were served to the guests by Alfonsa English, Bernard Tyler and William Anderson. Some of the musicians of the evening were James Washington, Coleman Pitts, Montgomery Shinn, Henry Carpenter, Walter Cornick and Arthur King. Some of the guests were Mr. Raymond Clipper, George Clipper, William Hicks, Miss Pearl Tyler, Ureline Smith, Sam Bryant, Sarah Sellman, Leo Tilghman, Ruth Hawkins, Agnes Johns, Viola Perry, Mae Bell, Gladys Chapman, Lillian and Helen Anderson, Beatrice Stewart, Thelman Bolden, Velma Francis, Dorothy Boggs, Clarence Raymond and Marguerite Furbey, Scoffield Nicholas, Bobby Jones, Pearl Robinson, Ethel Browne, Fred Byrd, James Aukard and several others. IN THE WORLD OF MUSIC. Miss Marie James, one of the music teachers of the public schools in this city, is studying music at the summer music school of Cornell University. Miss James has one of the best trained voices in the music world. Every summer since her advent in the public schools she has spent the time allotted for her vacations in taking a special course in one or the other of our northern colleges. WHY NOT CONSIDER MISS JOHNSON? Since the object of the entertainment given by the Polly'annas was for the benefit of Miss Johnson why put her to the additional court expense to obtain the funds? It seems as if the matured judgment of the Polly'anna's would see the wisdom of avoiding further trouble for Miss Johnson. A CORRECTION.

Through the humanity shed broadcast by the administration which touched the heart of Gov. Dorsey, this dreadful blot on civilization now occupies the foreground of the stage of life. The unsaddling of the Democrats from the Wilson regime who are of southern origin and who have certain fired notions about "equal and exact" justice must be given immediate attention because of their continued acts of segregation and discrimination which is embarrassing to the administration. For obvious reasons this must be done along the lines of least resistance. Not the least among the problems is the chaotic condition of the financial world which is difficult to remedy. The present administration is leaving its infancy. It is still in its childhood stage. Very little is done during this period of life other than planning and shaping impressions of good character. This the administration has done in its pre-election and inaugural talks. Pledging itself to justice to all. At a later date the child reaches the age of maturity. His character is then formed. We can then better tell whether his aims and tendencies have been in th right direction by the uprightness of his character and the brilliancy of the light which he casts upon those about him. So it will be with the administration. When its policies shall have been fully and unmistakably shaped—then is the time to form our conclusions about all things including the isms, which now bedim our horizon with vageness and uncertainty. The Bee believes that though now we see through a glass darkly that some day we will understand. It views it as a means to an end—the end being the final demolition of the solid South. This being the vision of The Bee, a good idea, then, is to watch developments. Take the people's money now being used to maintain expensive headquarters to combat Lily-Whitism, and use it to educate and prepare the people to enjoy the Utopian era when it arrives. The Bee believes as firmly that this era will arrive as the dreamer, John Brown, believed that slavery would be abolished. Very sincerely yours, (Signed) LILLIE B. BROOKS Witness: Hallie G. Glenn Colored Americans of Tulsa are seeking aid. What shall we do for them? The city has issugd an edict that outside help is not desired for these unfortunates. Yet the city itself gives no aid because the people refuse to move their homes two miles out into the country. At present the people are in dog tents with dirt floors. When it rains they are forced to leave them and seek shelter in their H. S. Winter is rapidly approaching. The unsanitary condition is breeding disease. In view of these conditions what shall we do to aid these heroic people who did not permit the lynching bee as scheduled by the mob and who so nobly defended their homes? Out of the fullness of heart of every citizen who is in sympathy with the riot victims, a generous contribution can be made. If you have not the time to carry it send it to Mr. S. D. Hooker, the Tulsa Relief Headquarters, Y. M. C. A. The Bee hopes that every individual, both rich and poor, will send a contribution to help Colored American Tulsa rebuild its homes. All kinds of laws are being enacted to cripple every effort of self help by these unfortunate victims. Encourage them to greater achievements by your aid. The people feel, no doubt, like doing as the silly married woman did who caused the riot—fleeing to parts unknown. But for race pride they have made up their minds-to run nowhere, but to stand their ground. The race has run too much already in the past. J. T. CARTER, Pres. B. L. JORDAN, Secty. W. A. JORDAN, Asst.

(Copyright, 1920, by the McClure Newspaper Syndicate.) THE LATE W, CALVIN CHASE Attorney at Law Founder and Proprietor and Editor of the Washington Bee, June 6, 1879 January 3, 1921. Orator, Politician and Leader. The Fearless! The Courageous! The Invicible. Like the late Editor—We are truly democratic! This is a journal for the benefit of the people, whether they are in high or low places! May God bless and keep these lowly people. May they ever find friends like our late editor who will help them in the ir struggles toward the light" WASHINGTON, D. C., JULY 30, 1921. BRING PRESSURE ON CONGRESS TO PASS THE ANTILYNCHING BILL. Every colored man and woman in the United States who wants to see barbaric crime of mob murder wiped out in the United States should, as soon as it is announced that the Dyer Anti-Lynching Bill is reported out and is before Congress, telegraph at once to his or her representative asking his support for the bill. Never before has an anti-lynching bill advanced so far as this one. Largely through the efforts of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, whose representatives have appeared at hearings in Washington and conducted correspondence with Senators and Representatives, there is every prospect that if colored people unite, the bill may become law. This will put the entire power of the Federal Government behind prosecution of mobists and lynchers. It is now or never for if the present bill is not enacted, such legislation will be set back for years to come. It is, therefore, not too much to urge that every Colored American citizen spend fifty cents or a dollar in telegraphing to Washington in support of this most important measure. It is now up to the Colored Americans, themselves. If they want this measure to pass, it is in their power to have it. If they fail to take united and nation-wide action, the responsibility for the failure will rest squarely upon their shoulders. Here is a concrete opportunity for all of us—churches, fraternal orders, all organizations and individuals—to get together and work as one unit, ten million strong. We shall keep our readers informed and shall announce the moment for action. CERTAIN OF TWO THINGS. Of two things The Bee is certain—the people of the Vermont Avenue Church know whom they want for a spiritual leader and how to help him lead. This has not been recently discovered but has been found to exist since the foundation of the church. These people were loyal to their founder, Rev. John H. Brooks, his successor, Rev. George Lee, and to their present pastor, Rev. Willis. During the past week the members of the church have been celebrating their tenth anniversary of the church under the pastorate of Rev. Willis. The beautiful team work of the members in this gigantic effort was noteworthy. The pastor and members work together so harmoniously that it behooves other churches to take note and do likewise. One could not behold such a beautiful human picture of cooperation and loyalty without being inspired. WHO KNOWS THE PROBLEMS? Who knows the problems with which the administration is grappling behind closed doors? The Bee believes them many, varied, and intricate owing to the awful condition in which the country was left by the war and the outgoing administration. Among the many problems which need immediate attention and drastic legislation is the one that is menacing the very heart of our civilization—Mob rule. By it, no citizen is safe irrespective of race. These uprisings are not by any means new or novel, and are by no means confined below the Mason and Dixon line, but they are constantly growing in number and intensity. The non-employment of 5,000,000 people who are responsible for the support of 20,000,000 in our country is causing no little concern as we automatically approach King Winter. Peonage which enslaves both the peon and master is recognized by the intelligent as increasing race bitterness, rendering insecure the BEAUTY AIDS FOR DARK COMPLEXIONS. How Art Improves Upon Nature.

This is merely a reptition of previous years. They are graduating every year. Among these numbers are many worthy young men and women fitted for all the branches of commerce and business. But where will they find employment? Will they be forced to do the ordinary manual labor of the untrained? This question is strongly in the minds of the promoters of the Progressive Company, that is making a concrete effort to furnish Chicago a much needed department store owned and operated by colored people.

Beleive Ku Klux Started Trouble Man Slain from Ambush. (Special to The Bee.) Monroe, La., July 17.—"Bill" Menifield, owner of a fertile 190-acre farm at Powell's Station, four miles west of Monroe, was shot to death from ambush Friday, July 8, and James Gardner, another well-to-do farmer, was fired on from an ambuscade and seriously wounded in the vicinity of Calhoun, about five miles from Powell's Station. Bloodhounds were placed on the trails near the scene where Menifield was killed and where an attempt was made on the life of Gardner, but no arrests were made. Sheriff Arthur Grant and his corps of deputies have expressed the belief that it is prejudiced white farmers who are staging the feud, according to reports here. There have been numerous threats against men of the Race and a state of terror prevails in Ward 6 of Onchita parish. Made without the use of gelatine, gums, starch or fillers. Made with pure cream, pure milk, pure cane sugar and natural flavors. THERE IS NONE "JUST AS GOOD" Chapin-Sacks Corporation Franklin 4800 Suspect Ku Klux. During the last eight months five men have been shot to death from ambush and although there have been several arrests in these cases the men have been released for lack of evidence. Many are inclined to believe that it is the work of the local Ku Klux Klan order, as the organization has a bloody record throughout this state. All of the men who have been killed belong to the better class of residents here. Richard Nelson, the first to be slain, was reputed to be the wealthiest man in the parish. Threatening letters have been sent to prominent members of the Race here bearing Ku Klux signatures. The Klan is so well organized that fear was expressed for those who attempted to fight its existence. It is reported that several county officials are members of the society. --- Doctors Get Notice. Those who have been murdered are Richard Nelson, Allen Cole, Gene Burr, Ed Burks and "Bill" Menifield. Ed Burks was shot to death a few weeks ago and his death has just been reported to the sheriff. Several other men of lesser note have mysteriously disappeared. Many physicians of the race here and in Alabama have received notices to place the word "Colored" on their signs in order that no white person will make a mistake in the selection of them for medical services. NATIONAL TRAINING SCHOOL DURHAM, NORTH CAROLINA A study of the situation indicates that the murders are committed to force the wealthly planters to sell their holdings. A SCHOOL FOR THE TRAINING OF COLORED YOUNG MEN AND WOMEN FOR SERVICE ATLANTA WILL WELCOME LARGE DELEGATION AT CONVENTION. Though it is young in history, the Institution feels a just pride in the work thus far accomplished, for its graduates are already filling many responsible positions, thus demonstrating the aim of the school to train men and women for useful citizenship. Washington, D. C., July 25. As the time for the next annual convention of the National Negro Business League Convention draws near, it is interesting to note the continued enthusiasm that is being manifested in the 1921 convention, which will be held in Atlanta, Ga., August 17, 18 and 19. Coming at a time when our national business is passing through a grave period of change, and when the entire world is turning its attention to the stimulation of business interests, the approaching Negro Business League Convention seems destined to become a very important factor in helping to shape and solidify the business interests of the Negro. PRESIDENT JAMES E. SHEPARD, DURHAM, NORTH CAROLINA Never before in the history of the organization has there been a more opportune time for getting together. Negro men and women see more clearly now than ever before that the future of the race lies in the advantage that is taken of the business opportunities which we ourselves must help to create. There is no wonder that the Atlanta convention is expected to surpass all previous meetings. Not only will the so-called big Negro business men and women be conspicuous but the smaller merchants as well will be represented. Indications are that a number of those who have decided to visit Atlanta during the convention have made preparations to take their families, since it is seldom that such extensive preparations are made for the reception of visitors. PUBLIC MEN AND THINGS I attended the outing given by the Stenographers at the Suburban Gardens on last Saturday evening and from appearances, every one-in town must have been there. I thought I would patronize the refreshment stand and thereupon ordered a couple of bottles of near beer and passed over a fifty-cent piece. It being very warm the contents were swallowed up in a few seconds. I turned to the proprietor and asked if he received the money and received an affirmative reply and still waited, whereupon I was asked if there be anything else. I replied by asking, "How much is the beer?" The reply was "twenty-five cents a bottle." Now every one knows that this is outrageous. Another get-rich-quick scheme. Why not give the patrons the benefit of moderate prices. This "junk" may be bought anywhere at a price of two for a quarter. Justifying what one evening of pleasure would cost an individual, 10 cents at the-gate, 40 cents on pavilion, 16 cents carfare, flying horses and refreshment. Why not treat the patrons fairly? The officers of the Ovington Hotel, under the direction of Mr. John W. Lewis, met last week and perfected plans for the erection. This promises to be a great hotel and my friend Lewis is leaving no stones unturned to make it so. The colored American may look forward to a fine building for next summer, where they may go and enjoy the breezes from the Atlantic. Great plans are being made for the opening of the new haberdashery store on You Street. The proprietor, Mr. Fred Harris, has just returned from an extended trip to Philadelphia, New York and Boston, where he has been purchasing stock. It is planned to open up about September 1. Miss Nannie Burroughs is making great success at the Whitelaw Hotel lunch room. The place which seemingly was dead has taken on new life. It is a well known fact that anything that Miss Burroughs takes hold of is bound to have great success. This is only another instance of what a woman can accomplish. The eighth anniversary of the Oriental Court, Daughters of Sphinx, A. F. A. M., was a great success. The affair was held in Pythian Building on last Sunday afternoon. Miss Minnie Berdley, the deputy grand matron, is deserving of great praise for the manner in which she is leading this order. She is both wide awake and enthuastic and is bound to succeed. \* \* \* While passing through the northwest last week I dropped in the Howard Playgrounds and was surprised to note the great difference which has taken place since Miss Daisy Piney has taken charge. All kinds of games are to be found there and the swimming pool reminds one of the seashore. This playground recently won the cup given by Dr Warfield. * * * Gourdin of Harvard University, has broken another record. Last Saturday he set a new mark for the broad jump. The contest was between Harvard and Yale Universities on the one hand and Cambridge and Oxford Universities on the other. Gourdin was the only athlete on either team to win two first places. Jack Johnson is now seeking a fight with Wells and the other colored Amercian heavyweights for the colored championship. This might prove a good elimination contest and then the question of the heavyweight championship of the world could be settled. A VICTORY WON. The opening of the summer school of Harvard University in Boston caused a little trouble when it was attempted to bar Miss Eunice Hudson of Armiston, Ala., and Miss Gal- frey Young, daughter of President Young of Tallahassee, Fla. The night before they were given their rooms in Gore Hall, but on returning from breakfast on Tuesday they found a note directing them to see Director Murray, who requested them to find a home with colored families as "it might be unpleasant to room with white girls." They had a double suite in the freshman dormitory. They at once found the home of Mrs. E. T. Morris, wife of the president of the Boston Branch of the National Equal Rights League Mrs. Morris told the girls to keep their rooms and she would telephone to Secretary Trotter. On arriving Mr. Trotter found Miss Roberts of Jacksonville, Fla., who had part of a double suite and had been sent to Mr. Murray and not even permitted to enter her room. Mr. Trotter escorted her to Gore Hall, with Miss Bessie Miller, and when the hostess gave a false excuse and said she was powerless, all went over to Mr. Murray. Here ensued an argument of a full half hour between Director Murray, who was avoiding unpleasantness for the colored girls as some Southern women were students, and Secretary Trotter, who insisted race discrimination was not the policy or spirit of Harvard University and that the girls have their rooms and rights. Finally Mr. Trotter prevailed. Miss Roberts was escorted to a single suite in Standish Hall by Secretary Trotter and secured her room. The other girls were advised to stand firm and nothing more was heard of the color line. GOURDIN, OF HARVARD, NEW STAR IN PENTATHLON WORLD. Cambridge, Mass., July 25.—Edward. O. Gourdin, Harvard's colored American athlete who set a new world broad jump record of 25.feet 3 inches last Saturday; has closed his college athletic career with an all-round record of track and field proficiency surpassing that of any man who ever wore the crimson. His ability in events, which he first tried as a freshman, is shown in a list of the marks he has made in actual competition. They follow: One-hundred-yard dash, 94-5 seconds; 220-yard dash, 221-5 seconds; 440-yard run, 521-5 seconds; broad jump, 45 feet 3 inches; javelin throw, 140 feet; discus throw, 110 feet. Gourdin will be as much decorated as a hero of many wars if he chooses to pin on his breast all the medals he has won in four years. The Harvard athletic authorities have been unable to get medals struck off as often as he has earned them. Five gold medals of special die are due him for his successive college record marks in the broad jump, culminating in the broadest jump known to man last Saturday.

Jehovah mighty in, battle.—Psalms, 24:8. The Book of the Wars of Jehovah.—Num., 21:14. The sword of Jehovah and of Gideon.—Judges, 7:20. If I whet my glittering sword, and my hand take hold on judgment; I render vengeance to mine. adversaries, and will recompense them that hate me. I will make mine arrows drunk with blood, and sword shall devour flesh.—Deut., 32:41-42. Be ye therefore imitators of God, as beloved children—Eph., 5:1. as beloved children.—Lpm. Blessed be Jehovah, my rock, who teacheth my hands to war, and my fingers to fight. He teacheth my hands to war, so that my arms do bend a bow of brass.—Psalms, 141:1 and 18:34. Now Deborah, a phophetess . . sent and called Barak, the son of Abinoam, out of Kedesh-Naphtali, and said unto him, "Hath not Jehovah, the God of Israel, commanded, saying: 'Go and, draw unto Mount Tabor, and take with thee ten thousand men of the children of Naphtali and of the children' of Zebulon? And I will draw unto thee, to the River Kishon, Sisera, the captain of Jabin's army, with his charitos and his multitude; and I will deliver him into thy hands.'" And Barak called Zebulon and Naphtali together to Kedesh; and there went up ten thousand men at his feet; and Deborah went up with him. . . And they told Sisera that Barah, the son of Abinoam, was gone up to Mount Tabor. And Sisera gathered together all his chariots, even nine hundred chariots of iron, and all the people that were with him, from Harosheth of the Gentiles unto the River Kishon. . . And Jehovah discomfited Sisera, and all his chariots, and all his host, with the edge of the sword before Barak. . . "Curse ye Meroz," said the angel of Jehovah, "curse ye bitterly the inhabitants thereof, because they came not to the help of Jehovah, to the help of Jehovah against the mighty." Blessed above women shall Jael be. She put her hand to the tent pin, and her right hand to the workman's hammer; and with the hammer she smote Sisera, she smote through his head; yea, she pierced and struck through his temples.—Judges, 4:4, 6, 7, 10, 12, 13, 15, and 5:23, 24, 26. And he (a certain man of the sons of the prophets) said unto him, (Ahab, King of Israel), "Thus saith Jehoyah, 'Because thou hast let go out of thine hand the man (Benhadad, King of Syria), whom I had devoted to destruction, therefore thy life shall go for his life, and thy people for his people.'"—I Kings, 20:42. Now on the twelfth month . . . on the thirteenth day of the same, when the king's . . . decree drew near to be put into execution . . . the Jews gathered themselves together in their cities throughout all the provinces of the King Ahasuerus, to lay hand on such as sought their hurt. . . . And the Jews smote all their enemies with the stroke of the sword, and with slaughter and destruction . . . and stood for their liyes, and had rest from their enemies, and slew of them, that hated them seventy and five thousand.— Esther, 9:1, 2, 5, 16. Therefore set I in the lowest parts of the space behind the wall, in the open places . . . the people after their families with their swords, their spears, and their bows. And I said unto . . . the people, "Be not afraid of them; remember the Lord, who is great and terrible, and fight for your brethren, your sons and your daughters, your wives, and your houses." And it came to pass from that time forth, that half of my servants wrought in the work, and half of them held the spears, the shields and the bows, and the coats of mail. They that builted the wall and they that bare burdens, laded themselves; every one with one of his hands wrought in the work, and with the other held his weapon; and the builders, every one had his sword girded by his side, and so builded.—Neh. 4:13, 14, 16, 18. The time will fail me if I tell of Gideon, Barak, Samson, Jephthah; of David and Samuel and the prophets; who through faith subdued kingdoms . . . waxed mighty in war, turned to flight armies of aliens.—Heb. 11:32-34.

The article in the Washington Bee of last week relative to the condition of affairs which obtained at the Republican Convention at Norfolk, Va., and the impression that the Republican party is inactive in furthering of the old Republican principles which put this government on a sound financial and business basis for over gfty years, and caused this government to flourish and become the most powerful nation on the globe. The people who are the bosses of the government saw to it over sixty-five years ago that their representatives were 100 per cent American in words, acts and deeds; and knew every principle of the American Constitution and fought and died for those principles. It is believed that there are signs of the passing away of the heavy dark clouds and rays of the sunlight are about to shine on all Americans alike. It is not the proper thing for us to make the conditions of the Virginia Republican Convention too seriously, and it is not fair to the administration to place the responsibility of the condition on it.

There is very little difference between these times and the times just after the civil war. Everything is disorganized. You will agree that this administration is burdened with difficult propositions, and it might be fair but not expedient for the administration to meddle in every un-American occurrence. The country is too unsettled. It needs the cooperation of every citizen, to bring things to a normal stage once more. Each and every citizen is invested with the right to make America stand for America, a government of the people, by the people and for the people. That is to say, that you have the ballot, you make the leaders, and the leaders must do what you want. The Tulsa Spirit Is Not to Forsake Their Own Business Enterprises. Despite the intense heat, a large number of people assembled at the Y. M. C. A. on last Sunday, Tulsa Day, to hear the story of Tulsa told by eyewitnesses of the recent riot in that city. The meeting was called by the business men of this city and presided over by Mr. Howard, while the story of the riot was graphically told by Messrs. S. D. Hooker and W. A. Gregg, who are members of the relief committee elected by the citizens of Tulsa to solicit aid in the states for the restoration of their city. Mrs. S. D. Hooker of the firm of Elliott & Hooker, who was proprietor of a large clothing and shoe store in Tulsa, and chairman of the relief committee, was the first speaker, who said that after many vain efforts by him he failed to find any officer of the law who would stop the riot, which would have been an easy matter if taken in time. He tried to get the mayor and the judge, who claimed that they were not peace officers, while his efforts to get the ministers of the gospel were defeated by their speedy efforts to get away. He said that the cause of the riot was economic, that the people of Tulsa were making progress in the commercial world, and that they had a true Tulsa spirit to support their business enterprise, and that of their business section were invaded by the establishment of another race, that it was taken care of by all the people of Tulsa. Mr. Horace Hughes, a teacher in the high school of Tulsa, made an eloquent appeal for aid for the people of Tulsa. This was responded to by a liberal collection from the people.
