Real Americans should not forget
the massacre OF Santa isabella.
Eighteen Americans we're shot down
in cold blood, their clothing stripped
from them and their bodies horribly
mutilated, and we have at Washing
ton signed statement from the
surgeons who examined the corpses.
And when the relatives and friends
OF these eighteen murdered Amcri-
cans went to the state department
and demanded some reparation, some
measure Of damage for these out
rages, they were refused any aid or
assistance by this government.
And this has been the course Of
the administration in all the horrible
Mexican mess. Yet, In the campaign
of 1919. the Democratic marty ora
tors made protection OF American
lives and American property in every.
state along the border the issue, and
they carried the Southwest for VIII
son on this issue. Eighteen Ameri-
cans murdered in cold blood and not
a blessed thing done about it! Ia
this the kind of Americanism you
want in the White House?

The Democratic leaders Assume
tina, the people Of this country are
fools. The Democrats know what
everyone else knows. that the only
prosperity We have today is founded
upon the misery and the demands OF
the worlds greatest war. Every stu.
dent knows that 100000 men are
working upon war orders, that these
war orders in turn furnish work and
wages to a million more men am
women; more coal, more zinc, copper

Is not because there are not among
them paupers, for there are. 1t is true
that among those people in thi:
country there are drunkards, and ar
idle, indolent worthless class; thai
they have their criminal class and that
they have committed every crime
known to the criminal calendar, fol
their is no crime known to human
kind that has not been committed BY
the white man;-but it is because
there is no organized interference
with the rights and privileges of those
people; no studied restriction of their
liberties; no Vardaman, no Tiliman
no Thomas Dixon ct al, whose great
aim in life is to prevent the enjoyment
of their equal rights under the laws
of this land. No attempt to alter the
natural order of things with which
they are concerned. No attempt to
interfere with the privileges of their
natural course. No attempt to restrict
their right of passage or to change
their channel for selfish purposes.
It is the utter disregard of the law
of God and man, and the desire to
change things where the Negroes
rights are involved in this country
that creates the Negro Race Problem.
The solution of the whole problem
involving the white man and the
black man is simple justice, a recogni-
ton of the fact that the rights of the
humblest citizen are as worthy Of
protection as the highest. Apply this
method and the problem will be
solved.
But whatever may be in store for
this nation in the future; whether
prosperity or adversely; whether there
be foes within or foes without.
whether there shall be peace or war,
the Negro always will be loyal and
faithful American citizen, and we sim
cerely hope the day will soon come
when he will be treated as such.
Atty Francis spoke at length on the
remarkable rise and progress of Chas.
w. Scrutchin, of Bemidji, Mimi, and
Turner Bell of Leavenworth, Kans.,
the noted Negro attorneys, as ex-
amples of the possibilities Of the
highest development of Negro brain
and character under the most adverse
circumstances.

Bishop Greer Presides at Session Of
American Church institute.
The work that Is being done toward
the Industrial education Of the colored
race in a dozen schools scattered
throughout the south by the American
Church Institute For Negroes was de-
scribed at the recent meeting Of the So
ciety by the Rev. Robert w. Patton
before 400 women interested in social
betterment work.
DR.. David Fl. Greer, Episcopal bishop
Of New York and president of the in
stitute. presided at the meeting. which
was held In the assembly hall Of the
Colony club In New York. and intro
duced the speaker.
The Rev. Mr.. Patton in part said:
1T cost the nation $4,000 per capita
and a million lives besides to emanci-
pate the slaves. But emancipation is
not freedom. And after the bitterness
Of the reconstruction period in the
south, which should be called the re-
destruction period, group Of men in
the north and south decided that this
was 80.
1.-The Church institute Is freeing the
slaves at 800 each by giving the Ne
gro the freedom of mind and body
which he deserves" The reports of the
past years work showed that much
good had been accomplished. The in
stitute conducts divinity school. two
academic schools, five industrial
schools, two hospitals and training
school for nurses.

Program For Annual Meeting Of Farm
ere Had Many New Features.
In order to put new life into the Tus-
kegee Negro conference, DR.. Booker T.
Washington's last suggestion to the
conference committee was that there
should be variation Of the usual pro-
gram for the conference in 1915. Ac-
cordingly, the exercises which began at
tho institute on Wednesday, Jan. 10,
1915, were very much different from
former programs.
Il has been the custom to have the
visitors to theconference go to the chap
q at 10 o'clock In the morning on con-
ference day and listen to the reports
made by delegates from various COM
munities. Instead Of this, visitors
were taken to the agricultural depart
ment and to Dorothy hall from to II
O'Clock, q. m, to witness special dem
onstrations and exhibits.
While the exhibits and demonstra-
lions In the agricultural department
were intended for all, the exposition at
Dorothy hall was specially intended
Tor women. A real school for the old
q people and other visitors to the con-
ference proved to be a real personal
benedt
The agricultural department gave
demonstrations In farming. trucking,
canning and fruit growing, and In ami
NAL groups there were illustrations In
the case Of dairy cattle and the manu-
focturs Of dairy products, selecting and
feeding farm animals, diseases Of
farm animals and their treatment. In
the handicraft division there were DEM
onstrations Of making doormats out Of
coenshucks, reseating chairs, mattress
making, horse collars, table mats and
various pieces Of household furniture.
The following is the program for the
woekeEs' conference on Thursday, Jan.
20, In the academic assembly room,
from 1890 q. m. to 100 p. M: THE
Better Housing Of Negroes" the topic
being divided into two parts, Urban or
CITY Housing Conditions and Rural
Housing Conditions" Under the first
Were discussed (a) Housing Conditions
and the Urban Death Rate For Ne
groes," o. "Some Examples Of What
= Being Done to Improve Urban
Housing Conditions" and (c) Agencies
which Can Assist In Improving Urban
Housing Conditions"
Under "Rural Housing Conditions
tho discussion was (a) Housing Con-
dttaous and the Rural Death Rate For
Negroes" o. Housing Conditions and
The Rural Labor Supply" and (e) "Agen-
ciss Which Can Assist In Improving
Rural Housing Conditions" The
health demonstrations were held by
