 \u201cThe New Negro: What He Wants\u201d
\u201cSaturday\u2019s issue of the Charlottesville Messenger<\/em>, of which J. G. Shelton, colored, is editor and manager, contains an article on \u201cThe New Negro,\u201d by George W. Buckner, of St. Louis. It concludes as follows:
\u2018The New Negro\u2019 the country over is coming to see that his salvation is in his own hands. No longer can he leave it to Mr. So and So. Thank God the pussy-footing \u2018Me-too-boss\u2019 and hat in hand Negro is gone! The race is now to the thinkers, and Negroes everywhere know it! That is why we are termed New Negroes. So the New Negro of Charlottesville wants:
1. Teachers\u2019 salaries based on service not on color.
2. A four year high school.
3. Representation in City Council.
4. \u2018Jim Crow\u2019 street cars abolished
5. Representation on School Board.
6. Better street facilities in Negro districts.
We are tax payers and law abiding citizens. We know our strength and will accept nothing short of justice!\u2019\u201d
Daily Progress<\/em>, Wednesday February 16, 1921, page 1
https:\/\/search.lib.virginia.edu\/sources\/uva_library\/items\/uva-lib:2118657<\/a>

The Charlottesville Messenger<\/em>, edited and published by John G. Shelton, principal of the Albemarle Training School, was Charlottesville\u2019s African American newspaper from 1910 until about 1927.  On February 12, 1921, Shelton published an article written by George W. Buckner entitled \u201cThe New Negro.\u201d The Daily Progress<\/em> reprinted part of the article the following Wednesday, Feb. 16, 1921.

Although in 1921 George W. Buckner was the Executive Secretary of the St. Louis Urban League, he was born and raised in Charlottesville, the scion of an old Charlottesville family. His father Anthony T. Buckner, who had been the body servant of James Fife throughout the Civil War, became a successful grocer who owned and ran a grocery store at 904 West Main for almost forty years. George Buckner\u2019s wife and daughter, Geneva Tonsler Buckner and Eileen Woods Buckner, are buried at Daughters of Zion Cemetery near George\u2019s father Anthony Buckner and Geneva\u2019s parents, Horace and Pocahontas Tonsler.

The publication of Buckner\u2019s Charlottesville Messenger <\/em>article in the Daily Progress<\/em> spawned a series of letters, editorials, and articles, and caused a stir that lasted until Shelton ended the hysteria with a conciliatory editorial which was reprinted in the Daily Progress<\/em> on Saturday March 5, 1921.

NOTE: Although the Charlottesville Messenger<\/em> was published from 1910 to 1927, the only known extant issue is from August 20, 1921. It is held in Special Collections at the University of Virginia Library.

Editorial: \u201cHOW DOES MR. GLASS FEEL?\u201d
\u201cWe wonder just how badly Senator Carter Glass feels after having had a parade and a mass meeting staged by some six thousand participants in his city, just to convince him of a certain error in calculation of which he was guilty . . . We were afraid Mr. Glass was boasting a bit when he estimated that there was only a handful of Clansmen in this State. He is inclined to be optimistic at times. We hoped that this time, he might be right, but alas, he was not! Incurable sentimentalist that we are, we are always hoping that the spirit of tolerance is really so much a part of the tradition of Virginia and so ascendant in her borders, as to render impossible the thriving of the offsprings of prejudice and ignorance. But now and then, something increases our disillusionment.\u201d

\u201cPupils In County School Try Out\u201d
\u201cThe school officials of the county schools are trying to give as practical training as possible in the schools. Evidence of this is at least partly shown by an experiment in fertilization made by Fred Minor, under the direction of Prof. J. P. Burley, agricultural instructor in the Albemarle Training School. Fred tried five plots of ground using different kinds of fertilizer to determine what seems to be the best fertilizer to use in rowing corn in this section. . . .\u201d

\u201cThe Entertainment Committee at this point presented as entertainers for the evening a Negro male vocal quartet, consisting of Jerry Bowles, baritone; Bernard Brown, first tenor; Daniel Childress, second tenor; and James Wigginton, basso all from the colored high school. They sang a Negro spiritual as an opener and followed this with several other numbers with touches of quaint humor. The voices blended admirably and produced an excellent ensemble. They were warmly applauded.\u201d

\u201c4-Year High School For Colored Pupils\u201d
\u00a0\u00a0 \u201cThe Albemarle Training School for the education of negro youth on the nine mile circle. four miles from town will be made a four year high school this year, according to a recent announcement by Supt. A. L. Bennett. This school began giving one year of high school instruction and was subsidized by the General Education Board about 15 years ago. Up until last year only two years of high school work was offered but the third year was added and this year the full four year high school course will be given. The school specializes in agriculture and Home Economics and has done an outstanding piece of work in the training of negro boys and girls.
\u00a0\u00a0 \u201cThis will be the first four-year high school operated out of public funds west of Richmond and north of Lynchburg in this state.
\u00a0\u00a0 \u201c\u2018We feel,\u2019 Supt. Bennett says, \u2018that we must offer the right type of training for our colored boys and girls. In the past they have been forced to go away to northern cities for their high school education. With the aid of the General Education Board we hope to develop a school that will give worthy and deserving boys and girls an opportunity to secure a high school education at home.\u2019\u201d

\u201cRegistrar\u2019s Action Upheld By Court\u201d
\u00a0\u00a0 \u201cAction of Edward O. McCue, registrar, in refusing to register Mrs. C. W. Wetmore was upheld this morning by Judge J. W. Fishburne in the Circuit court.
\u00a0\u00a0 \u201cAccording to facts stated in a petition filed in the court, subsequent to the refusal of the registrar to register Mrs. Wetmore or her two colored servants. Mrs. Wetmore applied, in writing for registration on September 14, of this year. She was refused then on the grounds that she had not paid her capitation tax tor the year 1927. The petition stated that as Mrs. Wetmore had not moved here until July 1, 1927, she was not required to pay the tax for that year. Claude R. Yardly appeared for the petitioners.
\u00a0\u00a0 \u201cMr. McCue, said this morning that Mrs. Wetmore had applied to him for registration as stated and that he had refused to register her and had notified her of the fact through her chauffeur who came to his office on September 18, to be registered. The chauffeur, according to Mr. McCue, said that the residence here had been established in 1926. He was also refused registration.
\u00a0\u00a0 \u201cIn the court proceedings this morning Lemuel F. Smith, attorney for Commonwealth appeared in defense of the registrar. Mr. Smith entered a demurrer to the petition and was sustained by the court. Mr. Yardley amended his petition, whereupon Mr. Smith filed a plea of the statute of limitation saying that the petition had not been filed within ten days as is required by the statute. It was for this reason that Judge Fishburne denied the petition.\u201d

\u201cGeorgetown Philanthropist Follows \u2018Daddy\u2019 Browning; Starts No Riot: Colored Citizen Finds a Good Deal More \u2018Poor Folks\u2019 Than He Expected, But \u2018Good Time Is Had By All\u2019\u201d
   \u201cG. W. Fleming, prominent colored citizen of Georgetown, had been thinking a long while of something to do for his village by way of distributing cheer. A few days ago he made up his mind. It was when he read in the papers of how \u2018Daddy\u2019 Browning, in New York, distributed presents to the poor children, had a fine time and started a riot.
   \u201cThat settled the matter in Fleming’s mind and he gave out notice that he would have a Christmas tree on which there would be present for every poor child and its parents in Georgetown on Christmas Day.
   \u201c\u2018They all came,\u2019 said Fleming yesterday, \u2018and there was heap more poor folks than I thought was in Georgetown. Most everybody was there and everybody got a present. They shoved and pushed right smart long towards the end, but there wan\u2019t no riot nor nothin like what happened in New York. A good time was had by all,\u2019 the Santa Claus of Georgetown added.\u201d
