WHite Gunn Down Thei How white artillerymen fell down in time of need and how our boys of the 349th came to their rescue is told in a letter from Sergeant Milton Q. Dorsey to the Afro-American. Dorsey writes: Somewhere in France — The infantry outfits on the front early in August and were soon under the dreaded shell fire of the trained Hun. Everything seemed to progress satisfactorily until the division was moved to the Argonne Forest to fortify the fortified Marbache Sector, which was the gate to Meet. The strong-hold of Alsace-Lorraine. Then came the arranging of the relative position of the Division. We all the outfits we received except the Field Artillery Brigade (167th) composed of two light artilleries (349th and 350th), one heavy artillery (351st) one French Mortar Battery (317). The latter was attended by the Courteous French Artillery. As the positions had to be filled and the 167th Field Artillery Brigade had not completed its instruction, a white artillery brigade (136th F.A.) was put in its place. Activities proceeded no further. The French Artillery was ordered. It was that the 368th became furious and dashed 12 kilometers ahead of its objective. All this time, the 368th Infantry was supported by an artillery fire. As a matter of fact, the infantry 14 hours before it received the same. Therefore it was not long before the regiment was between the shell fire of the Huns and the creeping barrage of its own supporting artillery. Consequently on end, many men were cut down. On the following day when a similar order came out, the commands refused to be supported by the white Artillery Brigade.

DO Tennessee Minister Denies News- paper Reports. Columbia, S. C., Feb. 1 — Speaking before the A. M. E. Preachers' Meeting here last week, Rev. J. C. Robinson of Chattanooga, Tenn., gave his hearers a vivid picture of the lynching or the coloured man at Sheffield, Alabama, when he was there recently. Among other things he said "I have been widely published that Booker T. Washington's son was run away from there because he condemned this. It is not so. I was at Sheffield. I made a speece condemnation lynching and nobody bothered me and nobody ran Booker T. Washington Jr. away from Alabama. I condemned lynching." Booker T. Washington returned to his home after fleeing into Ohio for refuge. Subsequent reports show that following warning, from friends he again set out and his whereabouts are not known. and a howl went up from the colored Brigade, which was still at LaCourtine. It was not long before the air was burning with the news of the event. The non-combatant Field Artillery were called together by their dauntless leader, Col. Dan L. Moore, in order to give their opinion of the matter. It was unanimously agreed to go to the front immediately and to take over the artillery positions, which so ineffective and inoperative. In the next four days we had reached the Marbache Sector, took over the positions and shot 140 rounds of a sweeping barrage. Butterles D and E of which Sergeant LeCompte and Sergeant Lefebvre, the more high School, are instrument sergeants, annihilated an entire division of German Infantry, which had recently occupied a little town in the Lorraine Sector. From the time the 349th Artillery arrived, the order to order fire came on November 11th at 10:45 o'clock, the Infantry not only received the barrage when it wanted it, but also趴ison cooperation in the advanced trenches. In this cooperation the 349th Infantry played the role of the first to get into position until many days afterward. The 349th. Field Artillery is known in the Brigade and the Division as the "crack and spotted regiment."

NO PACIFICISTS AMONG NEGROES Washington, January 29.—Out of the names of 62 prominent men and women that have been placed upon the Senate records as engaged in movements which did not help the United States when it was fighting Germany and Austria, not one colored man or woman as included. The names of more than 100 persons were submitted by Archibald E. Thompson, of the Military Intelligence Bureau, to the Senate Committee that is investigating German propaganda. The list which includes radicals and pacifists, was finally pruned down to sixy-two. Prominent in the amended list is the names of such champions of equal rights for the race as Jane Addams, Oswald Garrison Villard, and William W. with the work of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People; John Haynes Holmes, L. Collingsworth Wood, a leading spirit in the work of the Urban Conditions Among Negroes, and Eugene V. Debs, whose appeal against conviction for alleged obstructing of the Selective Draft Act, was argued in the United States Supreme Court. A sample of the memoranda that became a part of the Senate records is indicated in the naming of Oswald Garrison Villard, formerly publisher of the New York Times. It reads: "Oswald Garrison Villard, born in Germany; editor of The Nation; American Neutral Conference Committee; American Union Against the Land Armament; Fellowship of Reconciliation, Interested in National Civil Liberties Bureau." POURS HOT SHOT INTO PROF. OWENS Armstrong Says People Are Outraged by Article E of Montgomery County Supervisor I In Teachers' Magazine.@ Calls Upon Leaders to Speak. Contention of Mr. A. D. Owens, supervisor of schools in Montgomery County that colored people are spending their energies for social equality that ought to be spun in attaining "social efficiency" brought forth an open letter from James F. Armstrong, supervisor of schools in Prince Georges county, who handles Mr. Owens without gloves. The article stated that stirred the horrors that appeared in the first issue of the Maryland Teachers Year Book for Colored Schools which is just of the press, and which is gotten under the direction of the Superintendent of Education for the State. M. Bates Stevens. In the course of his letter Mr. Armstrong is upon leaders of schools遭入 the state not to let such statements go unchallenged, which in his opinion do not represent The open letter follows: "This open letter certain convictions which I have, as one interested in my career, now raising about Mr. A. D. Owens' article in the first issue of *Colored Teachers*. I attribute to Mr. Owens, all good intentions and this work. This work is not a personal attack upon any man but a desire to do the best he can to support this article. This article is headed 'Social Efficacy Against Socialism' concerning this people and mine that they clamor for social equality while social efficiencies are being spent on spending their energies to attain." I deny in belief of my people that they are clamoring for attention to the fact that every intelligent Negro in the L. before Mr. Owens has taken particular pains to make sure that they are clamoring for NO SUCH THING. Mr. Washington went out of his way time and again to see we all know that this is the shibboleth of a few Negro haters of certain sections in the state and we are not proud of a helpless Negro that has been spurned on by this belief: that Negro men have been burned at the stake and are punished because of a belief in this statement, and it is simply appalling, simply disgustful and last in an official document, issued by the State Board of Education of the State of Missouri. Mr. Editor, as champion of our race, we call upon you to give this statement as wide a denial of the facts of our race as the facts of the leaders of our people in this state have not protested. Is Dr. Goodloe of the State Normal School sleepy and not interested in Mr. Owens? What of Prof. Mason A. Hawkinson? What of Prof. John W. Brunner? What of colored schools? want to know in behalf of my people if they support this attitude, their teachers, their students, last before placed at the bar of American opinion and there is no need for Negro supervisors and teachers. But most of our people are outraged that the Negro leaders of the state are permitting this statement, and we want to deny it and to say that in my judgment it does not represent the truth.

EMANCIPATION "WE GO FORWARD OR DIE", SAY TROOPS WHO KNOW NO FEAR New York Feb 3.—According and cried: Truth is proper and beautiful at all times and in all places, and it is never more proper and beautiful in any case than when speaking of a great, public man whose exquisite pity is likely to be required for honor and long after his departure to the solemn shades—distant continents of eternity. It must be admitted, truth compels me to admit, even here in the presence, of the monument, we have erected to his memory. Abraham Lincoln was not, in the sense of the word, our man or our interests, in his interests, associations, in his habits of thought, and in his prejudices, he was a white man. He was pre-eminently the white man's President, entirely devoted to the welfare of the white man. He was ready and willing time during the years of his life to deny, postpone, and sacrifice the rights of humanity in the colored people to promote the welfare of the white people of this country. In all his education and feeling he was an American of the American came to the white people alone, namely, opposition to the extension of slavery. His arguments in furtherance of this policy had their mo- New York, Feb. 3.—According to the story of Sergeant John Jamison of the old 15th New York, now the 369th Regiment, their colonel defied the orders of his superior general in making an attack using words that have since become famous. Colonel Haywood said "My men never retire, they go forward, or they die." "It was in the fighting of June 5th" said Jamison. "Previous to this we had fought through several battles, but this day we were fighting with the French, with whom we were brigaded. We came up to the German front lines and there we met the heaviest attack, which was a counterattack, to our advance. "Colonel Hayward tore off the 'eagles' of his army, grasped a knife, a dagger, and darted out ahead of the rest of Company K. We went through a barrage of German artillery that was poured down upon us. A French General ordered us to retire. Colonel Hayward, who, of course, was under direct command of this French General, said: "I will not understand you." "Then the French General raised his arms, above his head tive and maltipsping in his patriotic devotion to the interests of his own race. To protect, to protect and perpetuate slaves in the States where he was not less ready than any other President to draw the sword of the nation. He was ready to execute all the supposed constitutional guaranty of United States system in favor of any system system anywhere inside of the slave States. He was willing to pursue, recapture, and send back the fugitive slave to his master, and to suppress rising for them. We were already in arms against the Government. The race to which we belong was not the special object of his consideration. Knowing this, you, my friend, flow citizenize, a sentence in this worship at once full and supreme. First, midst, and last, you and yours were the objects of his deepest inflection and his most earnest solicitude. We are in the hands of Abraham Lincoln.

They can run." go forward, or they die." Private James Carter of South Wilmington, Ill., Ninety-seventh Company, sixth Indiana have made a description of the storming of Bourches on June 6 in a final attempt to take the town after nine days fighting. "There were 250 men in the company under command of Captain Donnald Duncan when we started that morning," he said hour after hour. The German burgess, Captain Duncan was killed. Lieutenant Robinson took command. We faced a position so dangerous because of cross fire that we could go no further. "Those who want to go that can go, but order them headquartered. Captain Duncan go back when ever we wish. Any man that wants to go back, may do so with full honor," said Lieutenant Robinson to his men. "The answer was: "We never go back." Seventeen of the Ninety-sexth company came out of this fight alone. GOVERNOR DISCOURAGES A.M.E. MINISTERS Says He Is Convinced of Snowden's Guilt. Condemned Man in Death Cell. Moved When Sentence Is Read t oHim. In addition to the statement of Governor Harrington to Dr. Diggs Committee last week, in which he said that he regarded it as the "greatest misfortune that could possibly happen to the colored people to complain about the white Snowden," further evidence of the fact that the Governor thinks colored people are satisfied to see John Snowden hang is contained in a letter sent to the A. M. E. Ministers' Meeting. The ministers, thru Governor Harrington for the first time, received the following letter in reply. The letter and reply were read at the weekly meeting last Monday morning. Roy C. H. Murray. Ick C. H. H. already given two heurts to representatives of the colored race, one to a body of ministers, and the other a mixed body, of which Dr. J. R. L. Diggs was chairman. I shall be pleased to give you the heurts if you desire it. I want to say to you however, that none of those present at these two hearings had any further request to make in regard to Snowden, after hearing the facts in the case. I have gone over the results more fully in order to self-identify with every phase of the case, and I should be delighted to hear any information, which any of you gentlemen may have. I have gone over the case with the counsel for the defenses, and I was able to say to gentlemen in advance, that I presume you would ask for leniency in regard to Snowden on the ground of doubt as to his guilt. There is no doubt as to his guilt and it is the most completely proved and you will say so too, after you hear the case, just as all the colored people who have come to me in reference to it will now say. Upon the receipt of this information, you still desire a hearing. I shall be very glad to give it to you. BERSON C. HARRINGTON CONFERENCES WITH BRADY Reference in the Governor's letter to his conference with the counsel for the defense, brings to light the fact that Mr. Brady, counsel for Snowden, must have asked for a meeting with the chief executive, in order to ask for a commute in order to ask him to look, many friends of Snowden say, like there is nothing to be expected from Governor Hurrington unless he can become convinced that he is acting in the face of united public sentiment in okeying the hanging Snowden. Several persons pointed out that the only way to convince the Governor that public sentiment is against hanging Snowden is for thousands of persons through the state to send in petitions asking that the sentence we changed to be changed to be members of the Committee, which wont to the Governor with Dr. Diggs, disclosed the fact that Dr. Diggs in leaving the office said to the Governor in effect, "We thank you for this interview, you have given us some information we did not have before, so that we could be entirely mistaken in saying that he changed the opinions of the Committee or that they withdrew their petition.

Dr. Moton Made No Special Address for Colored Only Abroad. French Thanked Him For Colored Troops. Talked withfOfficers rom Pershing Down. Tuskeguee, Alabama, Feb. 4—What Dr. R. M. Moton told colored soldiers in France is best learned from his address before the recent Farmers' Conference that met here. Dr. Moton said he only told the boys what any other sensible man would have told any soldiers of any group. Dr. Robert R. Moton, who was asked by President Wilson and Secretary Baker to go to France two months ago to visit them, told them what ever message he thought best, was given a most enthusiastic ovation upon his return to Tuskeguee. Dr. Moton said: "There have been some 250,000 Negro soldiers in France and I have seen thousands of them, but I have never told them to me as he pointed out a group of forty-eight graves of colored soldiers: 'I do not know how much about democracy they understand, but to me no braver soldiers ever faced them than men whose remains lie here. These men gave their lives—all they had—for humanity, and I believe that America's going to accord them—those who go back, a fuller measure of citizenship than they have ever received, at least I think it ought to do." "After I had spoken to a couple of thousand troops two 'French women' I came up to me to the me for what I had said. One of those peasants shaking it with both hands, said: 'I want to thank American, especially the colored soldiers, for what they have done to free us. Our hearts go out to them as they return to beautiful America', and then, pointing to a little cowboy beyond, she added, "and those who are going to say with us." "I talked with many officers, from General Pershing down, and everywhere I got the same story of bravery of the Negro soldiers—men who have reflected great credit on themselves, their race, and their faith." "What did I say to the troops? I told them that America is more ready to receive them than ever before. I cautioned them how they should carry themselves in the war. I told them that they must get jobs quickly and become useful at home. I said that America was more ready than it had ever been to accord them an equal chance. I added that they could hasten the coming of human justice through the war. I told them just what any sensible man would tell soldiers or any other important group." Camp Parole, Md. February 3. —Mt. Olive A. M. E. Church, of which Rev. J. D. Banks is minister unfurried a service flag of 53 stars last night. One of them was for Alfred Welch, who died in service.

According to a letter dated January 5 from the Personnel Sergeant, John R. Williams, 351st Field Artillery, to the Editor of the Afro-American; the 92nd Division is slowly moving back to the States. It is the apparent policy of the government to return the colored combatant forces first; the reason is obvious. "It may interest you to know that the 92nd Division is slowly but surely (we hope) returning to the good old U. S. A. We were quite amused, several days ago, when we see an account of the news, the United States which stated that we were going to spend Christmas at home. While you were probably eating turkey at home on Christmas day we were traveling from the front in cold box cars, enjoying our "corn-willie" and hard-bread almonds from Turkey and cumberberry sauce. Today finds us still many miles from home, in what is known to us as the Les Mans "Dolosung" area. It took us three days to get here from our old homes on the front (in Lorraine) and it will take days more to get here, the port which we shall eventually embark. Everyone is taking life easy except we poor mortals who are connected with statistical departments; these are strenuous days for us since all official reports must be submitted of the Division leave the country. "Have just learned that the 93rd Division will, in all probability be sent home first. It is also the apparent policy of the government to return the colored combat forces home when the war is over, obvious to you, you'll probably better appreciate it when I call your attention to the fact that we are inland mingling with the civilians and the association mutual. We get along splendidly and no trouble has occurred. We are confident as saying, 'They (meaning the colored soldiers) will forget their place when they get back home.'" ANNAPOLIS CHURCH NEARLY FREE Annapolis, Md., February 2—When Rev. J. A. Briscoe, pastor of M.

Mr. Scott was a member of the American Commission that visited Liberia in the early days of the Taft administration and is keenly interested in affairs there.

Gone but not forgotten dear father; And never shall you he; It was hard indeed to part with thee But God's strong arm supported me. O the memory of that day When I knew that he was dead My heart was crushed with sorrow And many tears I shed. I tried hard to save him Prayers and tears were all in vain God called him home it was his will But in my heart I love him still.

The divorce court will be busy with her kind and caring wife, and come. She was the girl who wanted to say her husband was a soldier, and when he dons civilian clothes the novelty wears off and is tired of her bargain.

DoNot Envy Long Hair 1 HAND MADE LACE EDGING The chief fancy work of the moment now that we do not have to knit any more, is to make one's self yards and yards of narrow edging in fillet or some simple pattern. This is the pleasantest kind of pick-up work, and seems to have an indescribable fascination for the texture of much real use. Fortunately the very tiny edges are much used at present. These work up very rapidly, especially if one selects a simple design. There are numerous books on the subject and clear instructions on lace crocheting and even if there were no printed directions the cuts rae so clear that one can follow most any design in fillet. Besides their use on lingerie dresses as underwear, this technique is seen in many of the cloth and silk gowns. $3-$5 Weekly SCHOOL BOYS For your spare time after school and if you hustle you can earn more.

L. H. DAVENPORT, HAVE QUALIFIED AS A CANDIDATE FOR THE FIRST BRANCH OF THE CITY COUNCIL FROM THE 17th WARD, Subject to the Republican Primaries, April 1, 1919. ****************** FELLOW CITIZENS:— In asking your support of my candidacy for the First Branch of the City Council, I realize the high honor and responsibility attached to the position and therefore, if I be nominated and elected to the Council, I will safeguard your interests, and at all times be ready to meet any legislation that may be hostile to the best interests of all the people of the Ward and City, or any ordinance or question arising in the Council affecting unfavorably your welfare. I shall call a conference of representative citizens and get an expression from them on public questions. I will advocate better care of the smaller streets of the city and urge proper lighting facilities and better sanitary conditions as the small streets should receive the same care, as the larger thoroughfares of our municipality. I will work to secure the employment of any citizen desiring to enter the services of the city government and oppose the exclusion of colored men from the same. I shall give unconditional support to the merit system. I shall be untiring in my efforts to secure like pay for similar work of teachers in the High School and Training School of the city and continue the same in the graded and grammar schools. Similar service should be rewarded with equal salaries. I shall work earnestly for a new and properly equipped High School with all modern appointments. For four years I served as a member of the Republican City Committee. In June, 1906, I recommended the Republican Judges and Clerks to the Board of Supervisors of Elections for appointment in the 17th Ward, when all of the names of colored men were vetoed but two. It is known to many of you that I continued to send in names of colored men until they were confirmed. These are matters of record and history. Now it is for you to judge whether I properly guarded the interests of all the citizens at that time. In past years the 17th Ward has been represented by a lawyer, a physician and a practical politician. I am now asking your surgeon as a business man thoroughly identified with the business interests of the ward and city and bound to you by ties that cannot be broken. As all well regulated municipalities are run on modern business principles, I submit my candidacy to you for your most careful consideration, assuring you that I shall do my best to aid in giving the city a business-like administration in the interests of all the people. LEWIS H. DAVENPORT. TO THE VOTERS OF THE 17th WARD:— GENTLEMEN:— Owing to the sincere requests of so very many of the good citizens of the 17th Ward, I have become a legal candidate for the FIRST BRANCH CITY COUNCIL, Balitmore, Md., subject to the Primaries of April 1, 1919. While taking this step I wish it to be known that if I be elected:— 1st. I shall welcome and invite wise counsel and good advice from those most capable of rendering same, but I shall most positively refuse to be the political tool of any corrupt political boss either within or without the Ward. 2nd. The best interests of Greater Baltimore City will receive my most careful study and zealous support. 3rd. Reports from the city Health Department indicate the necessity for considerable civic bettermement within the 17th Ward in order to prevent it being in some respects a detriment. These conditions I would remedy through campaigns of education, and by bettering the Negro's economic condition party through some of the avenues of labor now denied him, but undoubtedly due him, particularly so now that this great country is to be a real and practical Democracy. 4th. Because of the shamefully unhealthful conditions of many of our public schools and the imperative need of a new or greater and modern High School for colored youth, I would give special attention to this, which is one of our most crying necessities. The best interests of the colored children of our city require at least one colored lady as a truant officer, also. As citizens and tax pawners we are justly entitled to all of the above and more, and for them I claim we should contend. VERY RESPECTFULL. HOWARD E. YOUNG 1100 DRUID HILL AVENUE THE COLORED BUSINESS MEN'S EXCHANGE EN-DORSES WM. L. FITZGERALD for the First Branch City Council for the Seventeenth Ward and WARNER T. McGUINN for the First Branch City Council for the Fourteenth Ward. The Colored Business Men's Exchange takes this method, of announcing to the public its endorsements of Wm. L. Fitzgerald for the First Branch City Council for the Seventeenth Ward and Warren T. McGuinn for the First Branch City Council for the Fourteenth Ward. With pleasure we have watched their growth during a period of many years and by their unbounded energy, unfailing integrity and great natural ability they both have won a most honorable reputation among all business men of our city and their fellow-citizens. We believe both are peculiarly fitted to take places among the salons of our city. Their honesty has never been questioned, their loyalty to their race has been beyond reproach and their long business training and experience fits them for the arduous duties of our City Council. It seems to us that laws are best made by lawyers. Their legal training will stand them in good stead in their battling for the interest of the city, the wards which they represent and the rights of our race. For the reasons above stated we cheerfully endorse them for the First Branch of the City Council and promise them our suffrage and whatever influence we may have with our friends and neighbors.
