BoLEY LAYS CORNERSTONE
FOR $4,000 SANITORiUM

Boley, Okla.-Boley, the largest
Negro town in the United States
perhaps in the world-held recently
the largest celebration ever held by
this metropolis of Okfpskee county.
The occasion was the laying of the
cornerstone of the 100000 tuberculo-
sis sanatorium that is being built by
the state to care for the Negro tuber-
cuar sick. Friday, September 3. was
the day set apart for the event and
the celebration lasted throughout the
day.
The arrival of Governor Robertson
was the signal To start the days fes-
tivities. He, with party of state
officials and prominent speakers on
the program, arrived from Shawnee.
When the automobiles reached the
edge of the town they We're met by
the mayor and n reception committee.
The streets and downtown stores
were decorated with bunting and the
whole town was in gala attire in hon
or of the visitors.

North Carolina Legislature Adopts
Measures Looking Toward We'll
fare of CoIored Citizenry.

Raleigh. n. c., Sept. 13.-The re-
cent special session of the North Car
olina general assembly showed
thorough manifestation of humane
spirit toward the Negroes of this state
and in it the Negroes are beginning
tn see the beginning of broader
horizon for them here and more rapid
advancement of the race along intel
lectual, moral and social lines. This
recent new spirit seems to have emh-
mated from Governor Beckett, who be-
lieves in Christianity in its broadest
sense and who issued the following
statement last week:
The general assembly realized that
If we care to maintain white civ
iIizotion in North Carolina it must be
white in soul as well as in skin;
therefore it authorized the governor
TO anpoint n commission to prepare
plans looking to the establishment OF
n reformatory for delinquent Negro
boys, Il sanatarium for the treatment
of Negroes afflicted with tubercu-
losls. n first class teachers training
school and for ii safer and more san
itary accommodation for Negroes on
the trains. All these things are de-
manded by Christian civilization.

THE NEW EMANCIPATION.
(By Jonathan Govern

The address of the Republican can
didate to the large delegation of Col
ored citizens that recently made a pill
grimage to Marion in pledge of their
support of the Republican ticket, is a
powerful stimulus to the patient faith
and heroic courage of this loyal group
of long-suffering Americans.
1t was plain unvarnished pledge,
made by Il fearless and broad-minded
statesman who proclaims his adher-
ence to the principles of truth and jus
tice for all men, as his highest duty,
and has no concern for the bowling
dogs of prejudice or the milk and wa
ter expedients of pussy-foot friendli-
ness.
The Negro is not without n vast
amount of experience in the matter of
promises, but has little reason to hug
himself on the blessings of perform
ance. Such few as have come to him
are the mile-stones of his progress and
accomplishment and have each and
every one, been hewn in the rough,
from the quarry of beneficent Repub-
ican principles and clearly mark the
road from Bandage towards the City
of Equal Rights.
Emancipation, the corner stone of
this great highway, was set with the
sweat and blood of Lincoln, the Mar
tyr; while Civil Rights, designed and
placed by Sumner and immeasurably
sustained and strengthened by Roose-
welt, is given worthy companion in
Harding's New Emancipation Mile
stone on which is inscribed: Fear not !;
here upon this beloved soil you shall
have that justice that every man and
woman of us knows would have been
prayed for by Abraham Lincoln"
Negro Americans may be depended
upon to see to it that this New Eman-
cipation is adopted as their Siboleth
that it may take on the force of Proc
in the November battle of ballots so
lamation on the ensuing Fourth of
March.

ATTACKS ON NEGROES.
Mob Violence Reason for Opposing
Democratic Candidates.

To the sun and New York Herald:
The increase of mob violence during
this Democratic administration has
been alarming. Colored men and wo-
men are being set upon and beaten
for things less than trivial.
4 few days ago in Newark. y. j.,
the colored employees of factory
were beaten and driven out because
they refused to honor one of their
fellow workmen. Southern cracker,
with the term mister" In the state
of Arkansas II colored man was Sc
verely wounded because he had hired
another colored man who had refused
to work for IL white man.
In the state of Georgia n cOlored
man and his wife were beaten ana
driven away because the husband re
fused to allow his wife to work in
the field. In Mississippi II father and
one son We're killed and other mem
bers of the family brutally beaten be

"'The niggerS We're gittin too rich
and sassy" This colOred man reputed
TO have been worth about S5O.OOO.
These are just IL few instances In
June, 1908. we had one act of mob
violence: in June 1912. we had one.
These were the last years that Roose-
Welt and Taft respectively were in of
flee. In June, 1920. we had seven in
stasces where colOred men We're beat
en- and five instances where colored
men were lynched and their bodies
rddled with bullets.
The civilized world is aware of the
fact that at the very time when the
American Negro soldiers were giving
IN their lives in France their brothers,
fathers. sisters and mothers were be

As matter of fact. Negro soldiers
who escaped with their lives from
France have had to face shots and
shells since their return to their
homes.
How could any colored man or wo-
man fail TO see and feel the sacred
ness of the obligation and duty nor
only to vote hut tn use all his or her
influence on November . against the
Democratic party?

~ is being manifested by colored
women in the campaign. They are
displaying fine intelligence of the Is
sues and are apt to adopt the most
approved methods of organization TO
the end that their vote may have
falling effect. 1t has been source OF
general surprise the remarkable inter
-iieence the average colored woman has
shown for the points of contention.
They enter into every phase OF the
current discussions, and display every
indication of having followed the trend
of politics through the years OF their
fight for suffrage.
Occasionally colored man might
find his way into the Democratic
party. but there is yet to be discovered
an active colored woman Democrat.
Colored women are all Republicans
and it is a matter of general congrat-
ulation.
Mrs. Anita Patti Brown, famous
singer and ardent supporter OF the
candidacy of Senator Harding, sees
very clearly from the colOred woman's
point of view. Mrs. Brown travels eX-
tensively with her concerts ana mas
delighted audiences throughout the
country, and is great favorite among
the women of the race.
"Since we have arrived at our new
estate and have full rights with the
men we are firmly resolved to serve
our race by voting the Republican
ticket" said Mrs. Brown. wherever
l have appeared there is an earnest
interest in the election and the women
have IL full understanding of what Is
ruuired of them. OF course, IN many
instances, the simple matter of method
in voting is not so thoroughly under
stood among our women, but there Is
no doubling that the desire of coloreu
women is to vote for Harding ana ps
so doing help the race. There may
he some doubts in the minds OF the
men but you may be sure that there
are none abiding with the women. All
through the border states the women
have been waiting for this great boon
to show their loyalty to the party that
has always been loyal to them.
.rrhe fact that the Democrats de-
MED the privilege to colored nurses OF
nursing our colored wounded soldiers
in France is standing grievance that
will not soon be forgotten. we All
did our bit in the war, all of us, from
the leaders of our women folks TO the
humblest washerwOman. we bought
Liberty bonds, worked in every chpac-
ity that was opened to us, and no one
could cast any reflections upon our
LOYALTY. but our girls were not permit
ted to nurse their own brothers anu
sweethearts in France, it mattered not
what their qualifications We're.
at is not only the colored men VINO
have n grievance against the Demo-
cratic administration, but the women

President Wilson has refused to

regarded as practically certain that no
way can be discovered to reopen the

she had murdered Miss Ada King,
