RACE WOMEN OPENLY DENIED
RIGHT TO EXERCISE FRAN
CHISE.

Birmingham, Ala, Sept. 16.-In the
past week a large number oil Negro
women of the Birmingham district
have been denied the right to regis
ter at the registration office at the
Jefferson County court house. They
have applied as other women and
many of them, as they report. have
been Inundated in an attempt as
they charge. to discourage them in
their effort to become registered
voters One or two particular cases
have been reported that are VeNing
and humiliating.
A young woman of very rare in
telligence applied for registration and
she was asked by some OF the white
women those questions: what do you
want up here?" why do you want
to vote?'' When hcsr questions wore
answered concisely and particularly,
the next statement followed: well,
the state of Alabama doesn't want
YOU
Another yotng woman. property
owner, a widow and one who Is do
ing a large business in the city OF
Birmingham. was asked rs she states,
to tell all about woman auffrage, the
amendment when that was success
fully done. as il appears. acco; ding
to her statement, she was asked by
the registrar to repeat to him the
Constitutional the United States from
memory. This she refused TO do, and
then he asked her to get a party that
he knew: this was done. she took
her seat as other candidates for
registration. being familiar with her
name, he turned and called ner by
name. II told you l wasn't goina
to register you. I'm through with
you" but you told me II ] could
get somebody TO Identify me YOU
would register me. Here are three
men: they know you ard you have
registered Chllred men On their ad
vice" II don't know any OF them.
don't want to be bothered with you.
And thus runs the story of the prac
tfce at the registrars Office as II re-
CARDS the vote Of the Negro w5m
en-. That the feeling is high in the
district and that the husbands and
sons are asked to protect the rights
Of these women is but mildly ex-
pressing it, The feeling is to have
the proper and just thing done and
that the women of the Negro race
will not be counted out because rhc2
are black while others are counted
in because they are white. IL is be-
lieved that this is the most acute stu
ever existed in the district and, the
thoughtful element Of both races must
bestir themselves ine allaying a feel
ing that miyht cause Il break the
race relations here that would re-
suit in a wholesale exodus of the
race from this community. ON evcIy
corner and in most every place the
discussion is made Qnd IL hinges or
the Injustice practiced on prominent
Negro women most of whVp are tax
payers. morally in. intelligent and
prepared from every viewpoint.

do the whites. His teachings are TO

therefore the black man should be

The activities Of jackson and his
union have resulted in an actual
ceive. But. according to Mr.. kutan,
their morals and their living con.
ditiOns are as bad as ever they were.
The Rev Mr. Farber, formerly pastor
sted, and the Rev. w. G. Watson.
priest of St Johns Anglican Church
in Christiansted. were driven from
their churches into retirement by the
on one occasion are said to have
stoned Canon Watson's home.
I Jackson is represented by Mr. Ru-
tan as restless agitator,, whose
creasing. and the consequences OF
which have assumed the most dis
astrous proportions"
Among the most active OF Jackson's
followers in his Indictment OF race
Ehatred was Rev. Mr. Rutan's prede-
cessor as curate of st. Paul's Church
| in Frederiksted, the Rev. r. D. Bar
row. The Negro minister was ap-
| pointed to be curate of the church,
but some months later, following an
interview With Bishop Colmore, who
| had previously appointed him, wrote
an insulting letter Of resignation
| His resignation was accepted. but
he thereafter Set up a schismatic
church of his own. from which he
preached race hatred. In particular
he accused Father Smith, rector Of
| ST. PauPs Church, of having removed
J him because he hated black men
| and of having made statements
against all black men. These alleg-
ed statements We're published In the
Herald and otherwise given wide
publicity and were largely believed
| by TIE Negro population. In ad-
| dition Jackson's union took stand
| in opposition to the white rector and
in favor of the schismatic church
result that a large number % the Ne
gro workers deserted the church to
| follow Barrow.
All this is part of the race 'ques-
ton which Americans Of every sort
who have gone or are going to the
Virgin Islands. with the thought o.
developing them along Industrial oil
cultural lines, have to meet.
mo one can tell" writes Rev. MI
/ Rutan in conclusion, how the mat

culties we are to have. The situation
seems to be growing worse everyday

handwork. Many new plans for the
new year are rapidly being formu-
lated. A leave of absence was
granted Mrs. Sara Fox, who takes
up her Kindergarten work in Fort

regret that Dallas should let her

Shall We Put Science Into Our
Weekly Washings?

Weekly Washings?
The modern. washing machines
have come and are being put on
the market at prices within the
reach of many of us. We are a
buying people and IL any article is
put on the market on obtainable
conditions. we usually but IT and
pay for 1t from player plano to
an automobile. Shall We let the
washing machine go by?
Ilnever pass modern laundry but
the thought flashes through my
mind that, there is a business once
the heritage of our people. now
lost, why lost? On. account of cap
ital sufficient to promote such bust
ness? Yes, but chiefly because we
have been sleeping on our rights and
have failed to sleep and not lay
hold of opportunities? Our women
still are doing laundry in the home
and are doing It in the old fashion,
ed way Shall we not change? A
number of our women wash out by
the day for families well able to
provide these machines and often
quite willing If approached in a
/ logical way. Why not say to your
employer, ''if you will install ma
chine I will wash your wash cheap
err and clothes will last longer"
You will then be able to do anoth-
er washing and make three times as
much as you lost and not be hall
as tired as you We're formerly. Trb
1T and you can't lose and you may
gain much.
: What does change offer? In
the first place, more washing can
b., done in the same time and ouI
earning capacity is thereby increas-
ed. Secondly-We use less energy
in doing 1.-The work. and the work
is better done, the clothes whittier
Ilastly-more time will be left fol
other duties and a few pleasures
Not only should the woman who
takes in washing consider the wash
ing machine, but the ordinary fam
lily can well use one. This phase o.
house work is hardest on the moth
err or housekeeper and wears hel
more than all the other work com
bined. Why, then. not use ma
chine, and save yourself for you
children and grandchildren? Let III
think on the modern washing ma
chine.

LITTLE THINGS THAT HELP.

Good Uses For Paper.
In one of my cabinet drawers
keep paper napkins, sheets of news
paper, a roll of waxed paper and
large sheets of Manila paper. The
paper napkins l use as coverings
for foods and jelly and to wipe off
greasy plates when l am piling up
my dishes. The Manila paper, when
slightly Toured and laid flat on the
table, makes an excellent mixing
board. When fowl or fish are clean
ed large sheet is placed over news
papers on the table, and the min
cling and dicing of vegetables are
done on smaller sheets.
use the paraffin paper to but
ter tins or to brush the top of bis
cults with milk. / wrap my cakes
and bread in the parafin paper. as
II helps to keep them fresh. With
newspaper, l clean my greasy pots
and untensils, thus avoiding insight
ly cloths The gas and coal stoves
get good cleaning with this paper
every week. The garbage pail is
lined with newspaper, which saves
much cleaning of that receptacle.
Whipping Evaporated Milk.
l use evaporated milk instead of
cream in making whipped-cream
desserts and find it great deal
cheaper. Heat the evaporated milk
to a simmering-p point, and when
bubbles start to form around the
edge remove from fire and set on
ice until very cold, then whip in a
bowl with ice packed around, as the
colder It is the easier it is to whip.

Ants I'm Refrigerator.
If ants get into the refrigerator,
get four bricks and four lids of
baking powder tins, put the lids on
the top of bricks, and set the cast
ers of the refrigerator into the lids,
and fill the lids with tdrpentine.
You will have no further trouble
with ants in the ice box.
Wash all closet shelves where
ants come with borax, washing
blue, and turpentine., Ants loathe
all these things.

cording to Mrs. Enyart this has been
valued at S2.O0O,o00. Her compla-
int also charges that Mr.. Enyart has
stocks and bonds and banking inter-
ests of great value as well as land
and securities In Nebraska to the val
ue. of $1O5,6O0, irrigated farming
lands and other property in Crowley
county valued at 100000. and that
he also has large sums of money in
various banks in Colorado. She de-
clares that while his income now is
100000 a year that
it has all been accumulated since
their marriage and is the result of
their joint efforts and earnings.
Mrs. Enyart asks the court to al
low her an absolute divorce and that
her husband be compelled to pay her
$500 month temporary alimony
and that upon final hearing she be
decreed the owner of an equal one
half interest in all of the property
owned by the defendant, including
all the lands said to have been trans
ferred to his nephew, Potter. The
case probably will be called here for
an early trial.
