The WOMEN
INSULTED
ATTITUDE OF DAIRY
MAN REPULSIVE
Do Not Desire White Mans Kinshlp
Best that Stay out of the
Community-WiII be
Boycotted.

V. II. Tarkinton, who runs Cumber-
land Punch Dairy No. 225, created
quite a commotion among the house
wives in the vicinity of Fisk Univer-
sity, in his persistency in calling all
the ladies "aunty" One lady was
very indignant when seen by a Globe
representative, and expressed her ut
ter disapproval of this white man
claiming to be her nephew. She said
she had told him not to call her his
aunt, but that he told her he would
call her aunt at the risk of his life.
The colored people are up in arms
against this dairyman and have de-
cided tc give him the go by when
purchasing milk and butter. The
Cumberland Punch" dairy No. 225
will not be able to do much business
in that vicinity, for the ladies are not
solicitious of his relationship, and
will shut their doors in this white
mans face if he comes around seek
ing their patronage.
Just why this man should want to
call his customers aunty could not
be understood, and several of the citi-
zens have been heard to express
themselves freely on this point. First
of all they argue that there is no re-
lationship whatever between a sales
man and a customer, and doubly so
when one is white and the other
black. The opinion prevails that it
WILL be best for all that the Cum
berland Punch" dairyman seek pa
tronage in other parts of the city.

from the government officials in the
Zone as well as by the officials of the
Republic of Panama. He stated he
was given due consideration on all
sides, mentioning by way of a re-
mark that he had been given a COM
plimentary pass over the entire rail-
road system of the Republic of Pana-
which enabled him to visit Colon,
Panama City, Pedro Miguel and in
termediate points. When questioned
by Globe reporter as to whether he
bad any statement to give out, touch
ing the condition of the work among
the Negro Baptists, or if he had any
report to Offer he smilingly stated
that it was his first duty to make
report TO his Board, that he could only
say the denomination that he repre-
sented was the only distinctive Ne
gro denomination with houses of wor.
ship and ordained ministers on the
Zone or is the Republic of Panama.
He promised to make full statement
at the Chapel on the following morn
ing, so at $3.50 Tuesday morning the
chapel was crowded with employees
and, members of the Board, who
learned over night and early in the
morning of his arrival, and for one
hour and half lie held all spell
bound while he went over in detail the
interesting narrative of his visit to
Central America, Immediately after
the adjournment of the chapel serv-
ice, the Board met, and it is stated
by the members that more concise
and accurate statement of conditions
could not have been made. 1t is
not known Just what action the Board
took upon his report, as they will not
give out anything for publication, but
it is evident that the entire situation
was carefully gone over and they
have some definite plans for the fu-
ture of the work Of the National Bap-
tist Convention on the Canal Zone as
we'll as the Republic of Panama.

Eighth Congressional District Dele
cation.

SdblOIs
While the political convention was
is session this week, much attention
was given to the eighth congressional
delegation, whi n was one of the larg-
est Negro delegations that has at
tended meeting in Nashville for a
number of years. 1t was conspicu-
GUS because of its makeup. Jackson,
Tenn, is the leading city is the
eighth district. They sent a delega-
tion CT twenty-six representative
voters who had been delegated to
come to the State Convention at
Nashville. There were twenty one Ne
groes in the delegation and only fee
whites A Globe representative, in
questioning the delegates, desired to
know why such a proportion obtained
in this particular district, while in
similar districts the Negro delegation
was conspicuous for its absence. 1t
was earned from some of the leaders
that there was but a small white re-
publican vote in this district and that
the the Negroes on every occasion
had contended and demanded that the
delegations be made up in proportion
to the voting strength of the race.
They were met by the representa-
tive /. W Pierson, r. w. Meeks, G. w.
Greer, John Ingram, L. W. Deberry,
Jordan Dyson, Alex Taylor, Albert
Cleve and, James Gillespie, Jim Es,
tus, Allen Jackson, Robert Comfy,
Lee Tyson, Ed Pierson and Charles
Womack Some Of the members OF
the delegation expressed great con,
1dence in the voting strength of the
eighth saying an effort would prob
ably b. put for,h to elect a congress
man in the near future whose politi-
cal complexion would be repubica
and that thore was no doubt that the
eight would send q Negro delegate
OF large to the Chicago convention.

BISHOP TYREE LEAVES FOR
TEXAS,

AT e'even o'clock last Tuesday night
Bishop Evans Tyree left for Texas,
where he goes to hold the last Pre-
siding Elders Council and to prepare
for the last educational rally that will
be held by the African Methodists
of that state before the setting of the
General Conference in Kansas City
in May.
Bishop Tyree has been over the
Texas conferences eight years. When
he took charge of the work there
Paul Quinn College, one of the oldest
and among the leading schools in this
country owned and supported by Ne
groes, was in a bad way financially.
By persistent and conscientious ef-
fort and with the cooperation of the
ministers and people he has been
able to restore confidence and bring
the institution up to high standard.
Bishop Tyree will be moved this
year, and from present Indications it
seems he will so to the First Episco-
pal District, which comprises the
eastern states.

witnessed in Nashville for a long time.
The train had not come to a stand
still before it was boarded by com

VIVA Meharryite Again Demonstrates
His Ability in Another City.


His Ability in Another City.
There is an organization of Physi-
clans, Dentists and Pharmacists in
the city of St. Louis, known as the
Mound City Medical Association
The membership of this body in
cludes the men in the profession from
st. Louis, East st. Louis and the sub
urbs.
At a regular monthly meeting
Of the Society, held this month, very
high honor was conferred on a pro.
duct of Nashville. 1t was the election
Of Charles Henry Phillips, Jr., M. D.,
as President of the Society.
DR., Phillips is both graduate of
Fisk University and Meharry Medi-
cal College. Notwithstanding tho
fact that he is the youngest physician
in the city of ST. Louis, his election
gave more general satisfaction than
any in recent years.
Among the other officers elected
were: Dr. B. r. Bluet, of East St.
Louis, First Vice President; DIR. E..
L. Hunter, Second Vice President;
DR.. Charles l.. Thomas, Secretary,
and Mr.. E. L. Harrison, Phi. G., the
St Louis druggist, of st. Louis, was
elected Treasurer
The fact that the State Medical AS
sociation is to meet in St Louis and
that Dr. Dan Williams will be one of
the guests to be entertained during
the meeting made this one of the
most important elections in the his
tory of the Society, as their arrange
ments must be made through the reg
ular organization for the entertain
ment of the State meeting.

HON. A, N. JOHNSON CALLS RE-
PUBLICANS TO TIME

The republicans or this district
nave their feather clipped from
their tails by Mr.. Johnson in the
following communication TO Banner.
TO the Editor of the Banner.
In your report of the proceedings
Oh the Sixth District Republican Con-
ventlon, held in this city on yester-
day. l am given the credit for strik-
ing the only "discordant note" because
cause | charged that the Negro Re-
charged that the Negro Republi-
cans were "discriminated' against.
and such action was termed "ex-
treme view" in which the other Ne
gro members did not agree. How
ever, upon a roll call by counties and
not delegates the Negroes present
voted with me. The paucity of Ne
groeS in the convention was such that
one spokesman was enough. OF the
i've counties constituting the Sixth
District the four outside of Davidson
took pains to leave the Negro at
nome, and there were four Negroes
in the convention from Davidson.
three OF whom supported my efforts
TO gain some scant recognition, while
the fourth, from modesty, refrained
from voting because his name had
been presented.
In the columns of the Banner the
Negro has been iayed for supporting
the Democratic party, and whenever
one OF the race has denounced the
independent" Negro who voted out
side OF the Republican party, the same
has been given due publicity The
Negro was most shamefully discrimi-
mated against as evidenced by the
very proceedings An entire county
came to the convention in the per-
son OF one man who held it in his
vest pocket, and there has never been
roll call of the delegation but by
counties. The entire proceedings
were arranged before the meeting and
there was nothing to do but ratify
that programme or strike the dis
cordant note.
1t was Mr.. Johnson who called the
meeting TO order; it was Mr.. Johnson
who presided over tie convention; it
was Mr. Johnson who named the head
OF the Executive COMMITTEES; it was
Mr.. Johnson who named the various
committees on resolutions, delega-
ton, ETC., and Mr. Johnson who nam
ed the national delegation, and it
looked Ike too much Johnson" for
any man in a convention where de-
liberation was to be considered. Mr..
Johnson did not appoint any Ne
groes in the workings of the conven-
ton; meme were officers in the tenn
porary or permanent organization;
none were on the delegation direct
or alternates; none will be electors;
none will be congressional nominees
and in the words of the famous Ala
bama Congressman, the Negro want
ed to know where he was "at.
To expect the Negros support
something must be done / wanted

of ability culture, standing and from
Republican ancestry, ON the delega-
ton. He wanted the honor and was
too modest to enter an open protest
wanted none, but ] wanted my race
represented, and this was why
struck the discordant note which |
am afraid will vibrate throughout the
state. The Republican party cannot
hope to succeed in Tennessee by this
method. Thirty thousand Of us can
vote and will vote and all the mis-
representation will not make us vote
