GOV. MOODY'S AMBASSADOR

Governor Dan Moody, who permitted a
man to be lynched while the National
Gaurd and the Texas Rangers looked on
does not like the publicity given Texas
by London newspapers. To offset this
truthful statement of the mob murder
at Sherman, the Governor has sent an
unofficial Ambassador to London to
spread tissue of lies concerning Why
we lynch Negroes in texas with the con-
sent of public officials
The Honorable (DAN) need not get
excited, the civilized world has been
knowing for a long time about our little
lynching parties. That white women
and children pitch fuel on me blazing
body of an innicent victim (every man
nounced guilty buy court of law, is
is presumed to be innocent until pro-
common knowledge.
Evidently the story published in a
London newspaper struck the Hon. IDA
below the belt 1t has him hanging on
the ropes. We remember that one time
the National Association for the Advan-
cement of Colored People displayed in
London placards which told of America s
mob murders. If America dislikes the
truth being published in foreign news
papers, colored people srould use all of
their power to get such news prominent
ly displayed. But it will cost money.
The N. A. A. C. has shomn that it un-
derstands the wisdom of such policy.
Would it not be an excellent idea for
Negroes to seud an unofficial ambassa-
dor to London to counteract Governor
Moody's plan to whitewash the lynching
in Sherman? Again we place the bur-
den on the one organization which can
do the job. The idea is fundamentally
sound and would bring bring results,
but the treasury of the N. A. A. G. P. is
in need of funds and because of the
lack of funds many excellent CLANS must
be abandoned. Truly can it be said
that Negroes do not get justice because
they are unwilling to pay the price.

10, 1880.

SOUTHERN EDITOR PAYS
COMPLIMENTS TO (UPPITY) NEGRO
ES IN N. A. A. C. P.

AS was to have been expected when
the Association for the Advancement of
the Colored race won its fight upon
Judge Parker, fresh demands have arisen
the latest move being to force the mix
ing of white and black Gold star Moth
ers, on the trip to Europe.
Arrangements properly had been made
ia carry the Negro mothers in group
to themselves, just as thewhite mothers
are being carried, but this was altogeth-
err unsatisfactory to the League for the
Advancement of the Colored race, anr
now the demand is made that all distin-
ctions be abolished and the groups be
sent as one, preferably white and col
oredwomen occupying the same cabin a.
board ship the same births on sleeping
cars and eating together at the same
tables in hotels and restaurants.
These (uppity) Negroes in the North
whose agitation is doing the common
sense Negroes of the South much harm
claim that the Negroes Mothers are be-
they are raising sand about it. And,
ing (jim crowed) and tinsulted) and
unless there his been decided stiffen-
ing in the backe of Republicans, and
some such Democrats as Senator Helfin,
who aided the Negroes in their victory
over Judge Parker, the mothers, white
and black, will be mixed as is demanded
That an issue of this nature and a
demand of this kind should be made
is disgraceful but simply proves what
every Southern Knows; which is that to
give one of these Republicanized Negro
cs an inch means that he will take yard
The revival of the fight of the North
ern Negroes for social equality began
with the announcement that the wife of
the Negro cngressman from Illinois had
been entertained at White House tea,
and matters have since been going from
bad to worse. The only solution is to
put real Democrats to the front in the
Democrat cparty and put the Democrat
ic party in power.

n. A. A. c. ?. Adopts Strong Resolutions At Twenty
First Annual Conference At Springfield, Massachusetts,

Ne" York, July D. The National Asso-
clatlon Tor the Advancement of Colored
People IN It's twenty-first annual session
at springfield, Mass, June 25-July /, A
dopted strong resolutions, the substance
VI wnlcn is as follows:
NO element of the American popuia-
ZION has felt the present economic de-
preston as keenly as the American Ne
gro and this fact illustrates perhaps
better than anything else the nature of
our problem. Thegrandchildren of the
sla'es have achieved physical freedom,
legal sattus, and political power in the
: nth. but hvi: economic bondage st!ll
fetters them. lay form in The mass
great reservoir of unskillcd and semi
:tii'ed labor, .'ad on the lowest scale of
current wages .rItd last in times Of
prosperity and fired first in days of de-
preston.
The attitude of the trade unions con-
tinues to be such that it is difficult for
Negroes to acqlre silukl or raise their
standards of living and public opinion
still regards the place of the Negro as
properly near the line of sheer physical
existence. This situation indicates tn
most important field for unceasing agi-
tation, for more thoughtful education.
We commend the efforts in Chicago,
New York and elsewhere to use the &C.
onomic power of Negro consumers in
order to open opportunity for wider en-
ployment. This movement deserves the
cooperation of everyone.
There is every indication that the
time for renewed anr serious battle
for the civil rights of the Negro is at
hand. 1t seems certain that the N. A.
A. c. P. can launch during the next year
In the court osf the nation a widespread
battle against the disfranchisement laws
and custom ms the eight Southern States
where disfranchisement laws were pass
ed between 1890 and 1910.
And above all, we are going to attack
the discrimination in school funds Gus
tomary in nearly all the Southern States
and even in some of the Northern States
which gives to the already underprivil-
eyed Negro child less than half the
Chance of learning to read and write and
acquiring the elements of education that
is given to the none too fortunate
white child.
Our triumph in the defeat of Judge
Parker, whom President Hoover appoint
ed to the Supreme Court, was due not
only to the sound logic of our content
ion that Supreme Court Justice must
supprt the Fifteenth Amendment, but
even more to the weight of our growing
political power. Uuless, therefore, that
political power is used independently and
honestly for the support of candidates
Who stand fer democracy and against
caste and color prejudice, as we'll as for
the larger matters of liberal reform in
this country, we cannot hope for further
triumps of this sort. The Parker VIC
tory is demand for independent vot-
ing on the part of the Negro regardless
of former party affiliations.

Fishing On The Fourth

AT fve-thirty on the morning Of
the Fourth, a party of ten set out
for the Rappahannock River, six
ty miles away. The party consist
ed of DR.. j. M. Newman, noted
physician and professional hunts
man, DR.. R. Beecher Taylor, popu-
lar dentist and sportsman, Rev. A.
w. Brown, pastor great Sixth
Mt. Zion Church and preacher Of
national note, Mr.. Armstead

note, Mr.. George Walker. efficient
house manager for the home Of
flee building of the great South

writer also went along.
The waters of the Rappahan-
mock were placid and a gentle
haze saved the party from the
merciless severity of the summer
sun and withal the day was ideal
for the gladstone. pursuits of
party on pleasure bent. The ques-
ton naturally arose as to who
would be the leader, and without
dissent DR.. Newman was nomi-
mated to take the lead; and he in
deed led the party with % nice
ones. DR.. Beecbes Taylor follow
ed with 16, and might have done
better but for a series of broad
smiles which accompanied
thoughts of the dear wife and
dear kiddies back home. Such
smiles as he "smole" invariably
drove the fish away. The party
agreed that Father Time would
