JOURNAL:
Sir-'rhe Future Lawyer" makes a
broad assertion I'm his letter. when
he says that woman never was, Is
not, and never will be the equal Of

future lawyer would lay aside his law
books and take up the study Of the
woman suffrage question.
He also says that IL greatly depends
upon the mother to rule her home aud

The women are not seeking Office but
they do want TO have The right TO
place good men in Office who viii

are enforced after they are made, for
the betterment of the community:
then, mothers will not dread TO send

1.-THE BIRTH OF A NATlON."

Quite a number of colored people
were invited to witness the private
showing of "The Birth of a Nation"
at the Auditorium last Tuesday night
and all took advantage of the oppor-
tunity. And everyone who was pres
ent condemns it as a prejudice pro.
Queer. When the first part had been
shown, one of the promoters made a
speech before the curtain and stated
that he was present at all of the
openings in other cities and there
had been no race troubles. Mr.. Jose
H. Sherwood at once arose in the
audience and declared the statements
false, which is fact, as everyone
knows there was trouble in several
places where the vicious film has
been shown. Mr.: Sherwood asked the
audience to withhold Judgment until
the second half was shown. The
second half was something horrible
and should be eliminated. The Daily
News on Wednesday contained inter-
views from Rev. s. L. Theobald, Dr.
V. D. Turner, Rev. B. N. Murrell, Mr..
S. b. Hall, w. T. Francis, Esq, and
Rev. j. P. Sims, unanimously con-
demning the film on account of the
effect it's showing would have in
prejudicing the minds of people
against the entire colored race. It is
a shame that such exhibitions should
be tolerated in this city.
A strenuous effort has been made
to prevent the showing Of the film in
this city; how successful remains to
be seen. But if shown some objec-
tionable pictures will be eliminated.
