A symposium on "The colored o,ues-
tion as relates to woman's clubs" was
the attraction at the Woman's club last
Monday. The usual fifteen minutes of
parliamentary drill was conducted by
Mrs. Eli Plummer. Mrs. Plummer
said that she hoped many would par
ticipate in the drill, especially tho
who said they would be scared to death
should they address a public meeting
Probably none of these acted upon
the suggestion as there were no fatali
ties, but the drill was lively and was
helpful to the unlearned. One motion,
which passed by a vote of fifty-eight
to thirty-nine, required the ladles to
remove their chapeaux, which was in
stantly complied with, revealing all
styles of coiffure. Mrs. A. W. Field
conducted the symposium. She said
that no vote would be taken at the
meeting, but that the question of ad
mitting colored women's clubs to the
national federation was one which
would demand a hearing at the bien
nial at Los Angeles, in May; she
thought the Lincoln club should hear
the pros and cons and be ready with
opinions at that time. Seven state
federations in the south will withdraw
from the national body. If colored
women are admitted. Mrs. A. A. Scott
was the first speaker. She said the
color question is a national issue and
should not be allowed to mar the har
mony of home clubs or the Nebraska
federation. The southern clubs have
been very loyal to the federation and
should not be offended. There are
several hundred clubs of colored wo
men working together, and Mrs.
Hooker T. Washington and other edu
cated colored women prefer that they
work separately, thinking a union
would be a hindrance rather than a
help.
Mrs. George Elmen said that to re
fuse to admit women of African de
scent would be a failure upon the part
of club women to practice what they
preach. The future of this country de
pends upon the colored woman as well
as upon the white, and she should be
given equal opportunities with her
white sister.
Mrs. F. M. Hall vigorously defended
the colored women in their aspirations
to share the benefits of the whites, but
said that granting this favor to them
need not make them our Intimate
friends.
Mrs. Nellie M. Richardson said it
was not the colored women, but the
club women of Massachusetts who in
troduced this subject at the Minneapo
lis biennial, and who are still urging
It. Mrs. It. P. Herron, Mrs. F. M. Gib
son, Mrs. J. W. Johnson, Mrs. Thomas
Mainland. Mrs. F. S. Stein. Mrs. Eli
Plummer and a number of others
joined in the discussion. Some of the
ladies were in reminiscent moods, and
the assembly was almost resolved into
an experience meeting, as they gave
their recollections of incidents in their
childhood days when their parents
were slave owners.
