OUR CITY ! REPRESENTA
TIVE orM THE JOB.
Despite the (act that the gene
rai topic of disjcussion these days
is "hard timesj" our City Repre
sentative. Re\f. D. P. Bishop is
/bringing aboujt satisfactory re
sults by wayj of getting new
subscribers. jVe find too that
the bulk of business being done
is Among the tumble people like
ourselves?the; same ciass that
renders the mjost support to all
other businesses, as well as in
the church. This class can al
ways be relied upon and this is
the lesson which ail business
men have learned.
These people don't mind pay
ing the pitiful bum of $1 50 for a
year's subscription to a paper
published in \ interest uf their
people. It's 4 large number of
the other classjwith which news
paper and other business men
have the most [trouble in making
collections of honest bills.
We welcome! these honest and
reliable humble class to our sub
scription list ait ail times and we
congratulate Rev. Bishop on se
lecting the honest ones.
We solicit thie continued co-op
eration of our subscribers for
Rev. Bishop, j
Aside from being a good solici
tor Rev. Bisfiop i s a worthv
young Baptist minister w h
would render valuable service to
a good church in need of such a
? an.-?Manager.
WHAT THEY HAD
iIN THE BANK.
And still thcf end is not yet, in
the disclosure)*4 to be made since
the veil was t >rn aside at Tulsa.
But for the riots, we would never j
have been able to gather an ideai
of the amount pf money that Ne
tuiate and hoard in;
litors have withdrawn over!
one million dollars since the riot.
Ths officials of this hank are re
ported as sayijng: "We did not
know that thj? Negroes had so.
much money jin our banks until
they started drawing it out."
There are eight banks in the
City of Tulsar If the Negroes
had over one million on deposit
in that one bajnk, it will be safe:
to estimate that they had two
million dollars an the other seven.
All black folks do not put their
money iu baqks. We are won
dering how much more could be!
added to this Amount if we could
have gone into! the old soeks and
what not that were hidden in the
in the homes of the black folks I
of that city. One Negro report
ed that the looters got $15,000.00
out of his safe; $1,001.00 worth
of Liberty Bonds were reported
lost in another rooming house
and when w? add to this grand
total the diamonds and other
valuables in the way of jewelry
which has almost a full valuation
upon it, we will find that the Ne
groes of Tulsa could have cashed
in a cool $4,000,000.00 and never
have touched j their property and
their business.
There are two big lessons to be
learned from! the financial dis
closures aboujt the Negroes in
Tulsa: first, ttyat it is a bad prop
osition for bfinks to permit any
sort of disorders in a community
that would fijighten away from
their doors jso much capitol;
secondly, thej Negro should see
that as a group we have in most
every community through our
combined weaflth, enough money
to do most j anything. The a
mount of money per capita, that
the Negroes ! have in banks will
range a little higher than that of
the average (white man for the
reasoa that the white man is
busy putting; his to work. The
Negro with his lack of confidence
in co-operative effort is permit
ing the whitej man to do with his
money what! he is afraid to de
with it hinbself. The lesson
should come ihome to Negroes in
every community in America.
We have served our apprentice
ship in poverty. We have reach
ed a day and a time when we can
put across any sort of financial
program if we will but add tc
our dollars little more confidence.

REPORT OF THE ASSO
CIATED CHARITIES'
AUXILIARY.
During the past month the
Auxiliary handled 7 new case*, 3
old cases, 1 out of town inquiry,
and have in files from the month
before 50 cases, 34 interviews
were made, 23 telephone calls. 8
letters written, 138 visits jiade,
2 telegrams sent.
Sometimes we are called upon
to do mjst unusnal things as in
the case of Uncle John.
This very old gentleman is one
of ine oid schisai, polite and brim
fail of information, always ready
to obligeand never ready or will
ing to ask a favor, worked as
long as he was able Friends
seeing this joval oid gentleman
declining sought the Charities in
his behalf. His needs were met
by loving relatives that probably
would never have known his
condition.
Boys we all know will be boys
and their love for adventure
sometimes causes them to leave
home uniess they have some one
at the new home to go to. The
Charity Organization Society is
the friend in need.
Such a case was handled by
our Society through the Society
in another State and two boys
returned to their parents at
smaller ccst than keeping them
there.
Often persons coming from
other localities, lose their money
some by not knowing how to
spend it, others have money ta
ken from them, these alawys
find their way to us and are sent
on their way as soon as a hear
ing can be had by telephone or
telegraph. During the month 3
such cases were handled.
Physically handicapped but
willing to do most anything,
though not able to launch that
something we often find. Six
such persons went through the
granted extension of time in
paying for licsnses.
Often persons are sick. Doc
tors cannot reach their com
plaint at their home, hospital and
surgical care are not in their
reaeh. One. such case came to
us and through the courtesy of
Dr. fleyward, a Specialist, Dr.
R. W. Gibbs and Mr. Geer, a
hacterioligist, he was given tht
best of care. Two laboratory
test, 3 X-rays and constant at
tention.
There is always a way to do
what one really wishes. A
mother of 3 boys, none old e
nough to be of much service,
through an arrangement of the
Associated Charities, the educa
tion of the boys have been ar
ranged. The mother surrender
ing her Insurance for this pur
pose.
Through the Associated Chari
ties one young man with a very
pronounced case of TB was plac
ed in the Richland County Sani
tonum and is now on the road to
recovery.

RICHLAND WOMEN
OPPOSE LYNCHING
The Record.
Opposition to mob violence was ex
pressed in a resolution adopted by
the board of directors of the Richland
County League of Women Voters at
a meeting in Columbia Tuesday after
noon. The league instructed its sec
retary to send an open letter through
out the State, making it known that
this organization is opposed to mob
violence and lynching and in favor of
allowing the law to handle all crime.
The resolution was prompted by the
lynching in McCormick county Sun
day, when hundreds of citizens took
the law into their own hands, despite
the faci that court was to be in ses
sion the next day.
