GOES TO SAVE NEGRO

Louisville, KY, Special.-Gov. A. o.
Stanley is determined to prevent a
repetition of the recent mob violence
in Paducah which resulted in the hang
ing of two Negroes in that city. De-
claring it was his purpose to give the
mob an opportunity to chang the
governor of the commonwealth first
and then wreak its vengeance on the
Negro later" Gov. Stanley left Louis
vile Wednesday night for Murray to
quell a mob which seeks the life of
Lube Martin, a Negro. The Negro is
charged with killing former Policeman
Guthrie Duiguid. The mob threatened
the life of Circuit Judge C. H. Bush to
make him bring the Negro back from
Padueah, where he is in Jail. 1t was
to Gov. Stanley that Judge
Bush had signed an order ordering the
jailer to turn the Negro over to Off
GERS from Murray.

turn of the Negro to Murray" Judge

APPoMATToX CLUB, ATTENDED
THE ANNUAL BANQUET LAST
SATURDAY EVENING.

Peace, unity and harmony reigned
supreme at the Appomattox Club, BAL

quet last Saturday evening. Between
seventy-fve and one hundred of its
members greatly enjoyed themselves
around the festive board and there

1t is contended that since this paper
intimated in its last issue, that if the
Appomattox Club expects to accom-
plish anything worthy of notice
or the slightest consideration in
the civic affairs that its members must
wake up and not expend so much of
their time in studying the expressions
of the faces or figures on the small
square card boards which are more or
less in evidence on the walls through
out the club rooms or in other places
at certain times; that many of its mem
bers are now willing to unite with the
preachers of the various churches and

Greatness Of Douglass.
Douglass was the great Colored
Abolitionist. An escaped slave, he
eventually waged an Independent cam
paign of agitation for the freedom of
his own race. The approach of his
centenary should be the signal for his
people to rally to the standard of
fight of our race for rights denied be-
cause of our race.

our fight for rights be strengthened in

Great and vital causes are advanced
by honOring the memory of their IL
luStrious opponents. When the work
of these moral heroes is vet unfinished
or is being undone, the present-day
struggle for humanity is strengthened
by public observances of the anniver-
saries of the pioneers. Such events
furnish the occasion to recall the
careers and recite the noble utterances
of the great advocates of reform, and
to urge devotion to their ideals The
sentimental appeal which goes with the
centenary of the birth of a moral
leader makes its celebration, if carried
on in the spirit of its life-work, of
telling help to the same cause today.
Douglass Centennial, Feb. IA.
Hence it is that the National Equal

and liberties still denied, urges the
celebration of the centenary of the
birth of that greatest of all Colored
Champions of liberty and of Citizen
ship for Colored Americans, Frederick
Douglass, all day Wednesday, Febru-

The league advises that these OBJ
