Convention
The sessibn of the Women's

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

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.

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.
