Negroes Of Des Moines

The Negroes of Des Moines last
Monday evening raised fund of more
than $50 as their part of general fund
now being raised by Moprfield Story of
Boston, at one time president of the
American Bar association, to fight
southern lynchings with.
Mr.. Story has given $1,000 himself
and another Boston sympat athizer with
the colored race has given 81, 900. Just
what the plan is to be has not been dis
closed, tut Mr.. Story is confident
that lynching can be made unpopular
even in the states where it is now most
frequent
At the meeting last Monday evening
interesting reports were made of the
recent meeting Of colored Masons in
Chicago. of the meeting of the Negro
medical association at Kansas City,
and of a recent conference of Negro
women. all of them well attenned from
Des Moines.
Among other thing the Negroes are
doing, tie Negro women Of Iowa are
now raising a fund Of $500 to pay for
a painted portrait of Booker Washing
ton, whicn is to be hung in memorial
hall at the state c,pitol, The painting
is now in progress in Paris, where the
celebrated Negro painter, Tanner, is
putting his best inspi' alton into it.
The spirit OF the meeting was that
the Negro must do for himself. He
must yay his own way IN everything.
He must not rely or the help of others,
however gratefully help may be accept
ed. He must set about raising funds
for everything he ought to do in the
community. He must fight his own
battle, and enjoy the victory when he
wins it.

St. Paul's A. III. f. church, Second
and Center streets, under the pastor
ate of Rev. S. L. Brit, is closing one
of the most successful years in the
history of it's organization and is en-
tering upon a new era Of Christian
activities. A happy elimination of
slow but steady growth under many
pastors and the loyalty of members
and friends.
High churchmen and men of wide
experiences have viewed the ground
and concur in the opinion that the Af-
rican M. E. church has a great oppor-
tunity in this thriving city, the gate
way to the west. Industrial migration
from the southland has set in. Iowa
will receive her quota. Des Moines,
the capital of the state, will attract
many. Our churches Of color must
be on the lookout. Pastor Brit has
net numbers Of these men in the
street, at work and has come in con-
tact with humanity in all it's phases.
AS consequence large crowds have
attended church services; 249 acces-
sions at regular preaching services,
148 accessions through revival meet
ing. Total number accessions, 397.
The whole burden must not rest on
the pastor. The members have re-
sponsibility, extending awelcome hand,
providing comfort and dispensing
good cheer.
The trustees of the church have had
two financial campaigns this confer
ence year. The first, held in Novem-
Der, netted $718; the second, in July
$1,387.
The stewardess board has collected
over $500. The Sunday school, A..

auxiliaries of the church have been
very active. The social side has not

ANTI-LYNCH RALLY A SUCCESS.

The anti-lynch rally held at St..
Paul'sA. M. E. church last Monday
evening was a success from every
point of view. A good sized crowd
including some of the leading white
citizens Of the city, was in attendance
and the reports from the National Ne
gro Masonic Cnogress, the National
Negro Medical association and the Ma
tional Association of Colored Women
were enjoyed by all present, after
whicha collection of SIS was raised
and forwarded to national headquar-
ters at New York City as Des Moines'
contribution toward the $4,000 anti
lynching fund subscription which
were to be closed today.
Some of our citizens refused to con-
tribute because of their doubts of the
possibility of accomplishing the OBJ
ject, namely, the stopping of lynching,
butr egardless of whether this be ac-
complished the demonstration of last
Monday evenings meeting resulted in
the appearance on Tuesday of an edi-
torial in the Evening Tribune on "The
Negroes of Des Moines," which edi-
torial itself has already been the
cause of several dollars being added
to the anti-lynching fund and which
will unquestionably be worth more to
the Negro citizens Of this community
than many times the amount of mon
ey contributed by them in the rally.

If the republicans of Arizona
want a live, progressive busl-
ness man as their candidate for
governor, we would suggest
they go to Flagstaff, and look
over T. E. Pollock. He is OF
the sturdy oak, who would
bring brains and ability to the
gubernatorial chair, and Arl-
iona would soon realize that a
business head was in control.
But if the politicians want a
Eastwood stick, whom they can
control as a puppet to do their
every bidding, Mr.. Pollock is
not the right timber. The peo-
pie are more interested in good
government than in the distri-
button of spoils to political mer-
cenaries. Winslow Mail.
