That year after year football is get.
ting strong footing among the ath.
letic events of the negro schools and
colleges of the country was demon
strated very clearly last fall by their
general participation in the game.
The schedule of games of the vari-
GUS schools was more complete and
more satisfactory to the public this
year than ever before and with but
few exceptions was played without a
hitch.
Everything taken into consideration
the teams representing most of the
colleges have shown themselves to be
we'll versed with the new game, and
some Of their exhibitions have called
for the highest praises.
The season has come to a close with
two teams standing out pre-eminently
above the others; they are the Atlanta
Baptist College and Howard Univer-
sity. Both teams at least for the pres
ent year will have to content them
selves with sharing equally the honor
OF holding the leadership among the
negro colleges of the country. A meet
ing between the two this year would
have been battle royal with toss
up as to which would be returned the
victor. The Atlanta Baptist College

few days ago a number Of gentle
men met in this city end decided to
form a social club, lease or buy a res.
,dence and furnish 1t and equip it on
a sumptuous scale. This club Is de-
signed for the amusement and pleas
ure of it's members. 1t does not appear
that we, of Washington, will continue
to begin working from the top down,
instead of from the bottom up. With
such a crying need here for organiza-
ton to promote and finance CONNER
cial enterprises it does appear that If
men can organize to spend money Law
ishly for amusement they ought to be
able to organize to spend money judi.
ciously to foster business enterprises.

store of size and stock deserving the

not single dry goods, hardware, con-
lection or china store or bank in this
city Of $4,000 negroes, 1t would ap-
pear that it would be far better to or
ganize clubs to promote business
rather than to furnish amusement.
And these are anything but amuse
ment times. This is serious period
in our history. With house of rep
resentatives passing jim-crow meas
ures, and each day the daily prints
carrying cruel. outrageous attacks up
on the race by members of congress:
with right after right and privilege
after privilege being swept away;
with the door of opportunity being
closed more effectually every day,
there ought to be something more
serious to command our attentions
than the providing Of a sumptuous
club in which to loll our time away
with nectared wines and aimless con-
versation. The sumptuously appoint
ed social club. among the whites,
came after the amassing of wealth
and business success. Just at this
particularly crucial period in our his
tory, which invites serious thought
and earnest work, social club.
sumptuously appointed, would be the
initiating of Nero-fiddling while
Rome burned. Let's begin at the bot
tom and work up, rather than at the

To date seven bills have been intro
duced in the Illinois legislature, all
of them antagonistic to the negro.
They are known as the Shaw bill. the
Campbell bill, the Foster bill, the
Poorman BILL the Hollenbeck bill, the
Karch bill and the Full Crew BILL
With the exception of the latter, the
sponsors for these measures place the
blame for their action upon the Jack
Johnson incident. The Campbell bill
seeks to esta blish the Jim Crow" car
on the transportation lines of Illinois,
especially on the street cars Of Chi
cago and the other large cities. The
Full Crew bill will eliminate the rail
road porter, and is believed to be the
first step in the thorough elimination
of negroes in railroad service. The
other five measures aim at the pre-
and whites, thus permitting illicit in
tercourse and wholesale miscegena-
ton. 1t is significant that these bills
have been introduced by Democratic,
Republican and Progressive members
of the legislature. The Full Crew bill
has been made party measure by the
progressive party. What is still more
significant is the attitude of the So
called friends of the negro. They are
not anxious to assert themselves at

oughly active and gaining force. The

Bank of Nampa Fails.

The Bank of Nampa, capitalized at
100000 and with deposits aggregat-
ing S290,000, suspended business Sat
urday morning and now is in the
hands of the state bank commissioner.
The closing of the bank followed an
examination of the books of the insti-
tuition by Deputy State Bank Commits
sioner Record who, it is said, found
the reserve fund below the legal limit.
Officers of the bank claim that the
embarrassment is only temporary
that there are sufficient assets to more
than balance all liabilities and that
depositors will be paid in full. The
failure is charged to heavy withdraw
ais incidental to the current crop
and to the inability of the
banking house to collect loans to cover
this shrinkage. These loans are un-
derstood to consist largely of long
time realty paper on which it was i'm
possible to realize, due to the present
financial depression.
