BISHOP CONNER, IN
 SPEECH HERE, FLAYS AG|TAT0RS, WILLOWS
Negro Leader Speaks in Be. half of Literacy Move
 ment

In speech at the St. John Afri- can Methodist church last night in which he declared that "yellow' jour- nals and agitators have done more harm to the colored race than any thing else, Bishop James M. Con- ner, head of the African Methodist church of Arkansas and Oklahoma speaking in behalf of the literacy movement among Arkansas colored churches urged harmonious rela- ! tions among whites and cOlored, and stated that the negro was not alone in his fight for general uplift, but that the best white men in the South were with him
 More than thousand people gathered at the church to hear the speaker. and he was rendered an ova- ton at the conclusion of his address. A substantial sum was raised for the iliteracy movement at the meeting last night
 In his speech, Bishop Conner SCOT ed radical newspapers and agitators, and while he did not dwell at any ! length on the Robert l.. Hill case, he made his stand plain that he believed Hill was d criminal, and that he should be returned to Phillips coun- ty for trial. Bishop Conner has been denounced by members of his race for his stand on this matter. but these denunciations have come most ly from northern states. His speech in part was as follows:
 Ignorance is the most baneful thing in the world today, because it's the root of many, if not all, of our evils. This seems to be an age of revenge. The spirit is prevalent This can and must be killed by the love we exhibit for one another. We, the negroes of this state, must en- terly heartily in this great plan to reduce the state illiteracy. I am not working for praise, but working for humanity. Dr. Pope, assist cd by Dr. Hill, the pastor of St. John A. M. E. church, backed by the loy- al pastors and membership of this district, have done lion share in that they have already given for the "1lliteracy canIpaign movement their quota. Many of the best ne- groes, including the professional as well as laboring class, have assist ed. "All we need in this coun- try,' said the Bishop, "is a thorough understanding of each other.
 Plays Fellows.
 "The only way to take care of these conditions is to educate, christianize and purify, social sys- tenn, and then the problem will, be solved. This country has given birth to new negro and white man, and we must learn to work together on grounds in common for the best interest for the best country in the world.
 "One of the main thinSs that has dcne us harm as race is yellow journals and agitators. This is not an indentities. We should have interest age for agitation. These are time for extreme conservatism for my

 Say what you may, this is the white mans country, but let us seek to keep on friendly terms, and con tribute our share. Let us seek to live here in peace. We can do it We must do it. We are not going North to live better. Let us be one people. Let us know one flag. Th;s can be done without the de- struction of any of our racial indinities. We should have interest in common. Why should we want everything for nothing. The white man has done much for us. As an evidence Of this fact. they have and are educating many hundred negroes in this country. We must. while we are bowling for our rights. not forget we are to contribute our quo ta in civic uplift. and we must do all that lies within us break down. and burn up everything that tends to boost and give impetus to crime and debauchery.
 "We are not alone in this fight for the general uplift for negroes The best white men in this fair Southland are with us.
