Convention The sessibn of the Women's held in Greenville was the gijeatest in the history of the Contention as to number, finance andJuplifting work done. The same ofiicers were re-elected. TheConven "iongoes to Bennetts ville next year. * * * There see us to be quite a lack of interest in the Columbia Board of Trade al eady. Some of th e main men who clamored for ths much needed enterprise seem o have gotten cold feet. * * * The editcjr has not as yet re ceived a watermelon, a quart of peaches, potatoes, nor anything else in the j fruit and vegetable line even or subscription dues to say nothing: about "a token of appreciation'9 for the "good ser vice" rendered. Yet we would gladly givejerediton subscription for these products. r * * * The kiiltng of Dr. Lawton Lipscomb,. jformer Columbian atj Ninety Si^ last Tuesday by one of his fajrm hands, "Pink" Adams is regretted by ail Ne groes in S(futh Carolina just as much as t^e whites and the Ne groes are just as anxious that he suffer for his crime according to the provisions made by the law ir such crimes as our white Ut if. In fact to make ? long: story short we Negroes be lieve in la v and order and say like the im nediate family of Dr. Lipscomb, I "let the law take its course." Quite a jdifference indeed be tween the posse of Ninety Six and the ppsse of McCormick a few days! a^o who murdered Herbert Qfiarles. The Indicator knows nothing of the family standing ?f Quarle's victim but it does know that the Lipscomb family represent the aristocratic element inj South Carolina which element cannot afford to decend to the iowjlevelof savages. This fact is oorjne out by the request of the fajmily to "let the law take its ! course." While The Indicator jdee p 1 y sympathizes with the bereaved family it con gratulate^) them on their 3tand for law anp order * * * In the srecent municipal elec tion in Jajcksonvili?, Fia,, there were two ^oiured candidates for Coaadf-at[large while four others sought el ation from their respec tive wards. The Colored Candi dates m*djde good showings. None wdre elected and it is hardly probable that any really expeeted Ito be, but to show to the world i that they want to ex ercise thejr rights as citizens and that they want to lend inspira tion to th? party they represent, they wenjt after it for all they were worth and made the white voters dp some extraordinary hustling tp hold their own Jacksonville like Columbia and other plaaes don't have to do any extra polling unless the Negroes awake anii show signs of earnest activities <and in every case they do their tfesc to keep the Negro down. This action on the part of'our white friends to keep us dowp should add fuel to our ambition to do any way if possibile but it doesn't. Wei give it lip in almost every in stance a$ a hopelsss case But The Indicator is hoping that the colored citizens of Jacksonville will use every opportunity by the next eiejetion to register their men and women and be prepared to poi 1 a itili iarger vote. ! The Njegroes in Columbia are still doziifg, politically. No body urges registration any more, nor do thev j aspire for any office. The Indicator thinks, however, after thesfe four years they will a gain revive and bestir themselves ;o their pelitical duties. But this s not a healthy sign. Our lead ers should be actively engaged in everything that tends inspira tion to our people in all matters of polities whether locally or not Why not clubs in each ward to see that men and women regis ter and become citizens of this commonwealth as well as be pre pared for any emergency? Our leaders need to wake up. DR. MOORE CELEBRATES FIRST ANNIVERSARY. ANNIVERSARY SERMON IS PREACHED BY DR. J. S. EARLE. The first anniversary of Dr. H. M. Moore as pastor of Second Calvary Baptist Church began June 27th and ended July 3rd. The anniversary ser mon was preached last Sunday morn ing by Dr. J. S. Earle^ pastor of Mt. Moriab, Baptist Church, Spartanburg, and president of the State Educational and Missionary Convention. The ser mon was practical and helpful. The result of Dr. Moore's first year's work at Second Calvary give all evi dences for a much greater church. Dp Moore has a mind to lead aright and the people have a mind to follow his lead. During the anniversary services 125.50 was raised. Additions to the church for the year were 100. Total amount of money collected for all [purposes was $7,104.91 (seven thou I sand one hundred and four dollars and ninety-one cents). The slogan for the next year is 300, new members, $12,000 pasonage and pipe organ. ] WAVERLEY MILLINERY SHOP ROBBED. J Robbers gained entrance through the side door of the Waverley Milli nery and Dressmaking Shop on the night of the 4th and the second time supplied themselves with hats, dresses, men's and ladies' hose, hand kerchiefs, etc., to the amount of about $100. They gained entrrnce through the side door facing Heidt street. To the proprietresses this is quite disgusting and discouraging but with the continued patronage of their friends who appreciate their business, they hope to overcome these losses zni finally make their business what they started ^oat t?m itable business for the race. They solicit the continued patron age of the public. FIRE DAMAGES WOOD'S HABERDASHERY. The Wood's Haberdashery at 1124 Washington street suffered a heavy loss on the 2pth of June from fire and water. W? do not know the ex tent of Mr. Wood's loss but we under stand that it was well covered with insurance. Mr. Woods is now selling the dam aged goods at greatly reduced prices. 1 SPECIAL LECTURE TO B. Y. P. U. OF SECOND CAL ARY. '] Dr. T. M.

WOMAN'S CONVENTION Continued from page 1 vice to the sisters of the convention It would be this: Conquer the mean elements of nature, destroy every atom of dishonesty, be as sound as 24 karat gold, as true as best steel, as reliable as the course of nature, as pure as sunlight, as cheering as dew drops, as kind as the gayety of sun beams, as brave as the hardness of adament and as helpful as the weep ing of clouds. Linger not among the records of the past, thinking that the best has been accomplished, but with iaith in God go forward. S. C. Campbell. Greenwood, S. C. OUR GREkT WORD!
