—So far this has been a most pleasant trip, nothing has been more useful than the usual humiliation of having to ride from Jacksonville to Tampa and to this place in the usual "jim crow." Even this is much better than formerly. Very much better indeed. The car we came to Jacksonville was clean and the porter not so officious as formerly. They are now putting on whole cars, with fair accommodations; in fact as far as the accommodations are concerned there is little to concern them, but the porter however which over balance these discomforts.
Arriving at Tampa, Pastor S. H. Williams was almost overwhelmed when he found two car loads of people. However, he was equal to the occasion, and took care of nicely. Prof. Scarborough, and you Mrs. J. E. Stewart, of Cass street.
There was a considerable amount of business transacted by the Council of Bishops, much of course was not for publication, the Council of Bishops "House" as some were pleased to term it, took upon itself to propose certain legislation for the General Conference to pass upon. Inasmuch as many of these men are leaders in their respective conferences, the meeting will be acted by the next General Conference. The next meeting, both of this body and the Bishops' Council will meet in Bethal Church, Baltimore, February of next year. Baltimoreans may look forward to a miniature General Conference that time, and have the opportunity to assess what the real genuine article is.
Leaving Tampa, early Monday morning in company with Bishop and Mrs. Hurst, Dr. and Mrs. R. C. Runsneu, editor, Dr. and Mrs. W. Hammans, missionary secretary, Mr. J. S. Jackson, secretary of education, Drs. Steptone and Stewart, of Allen and Ebenezer Churches, respectively of Baltimore, and Wesleyan at nearly ten o'clock P. M. We were met at the depot by Rev. S. W. Adair, pastor of the local church, where the conference is to be held, with automobile buses, and soon a well-filled supper table at the parsonage. Notwithstanding, "on account of "conditions," we had previously provided a very substantial lunch. (I mean by we, the parsonage, and the church, all did full justice to the solitary meal provided.
Tuesday morning we started out to see what was to be seen in this "Millionaire's Paradise." Through West Palm Beach, over the lake and we are in Palm Beach, the beach is open, through the grounds of the Royal Ponciana Hotel, to the beach front where hundreds were sporting in the emerald green waters of the Atlantic Ocean. The Beach was dotted with hundreds of others, while overcrowded the beach had two Hydrosarplany, darting bither like some high birds of prey. Just below them and almost flying in between them were a number of buzzards, almost looking like the flying machines themselves. In turn in looking over the beautiful grounds we made enquiries for the Baltimore boys we knew were there. We found several, who took us in the great dining room, said to be the largest in the country, if not in the world, seating 1,000 people. We also a well known Baltimore (an old timer), met us while in company with Mr. C. Newton, also of Baltimore, and introduce us to Mr. J. S. McClane, of Jacksonville, headmaster of the Palm Beach R. R. Goode, Richard Gordon'J, A. Joyner, and Wm. H. Simms, his assistants. Inasmuch as this hotel is not opened to colored tourists it is not necessary for us to say more than it is a veritable dream, nothing being left untouched, as well as catering to their highest taste, even at a cost of $50 per day.

Late Captain of the 372nd Gives Inside Dope on Treatment of Colored Officers Overseas. _Colored Ranking Officers Put Below White Lieutenants on Board Ship.
New Bedford, Mass., Feb. 25.—At a meeting of this National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, held in the Bethel A. M. E. Church last evening, Capt. J. O. Troyer, formerly commissioner of the Old Co. Sixth Massachusetts regiment, and later of the 372rd regiment, gave his story of the war and told how the colored troops and officers were discriminated against, how men who were found to be unarmed in France, and which they were originally assigned, were placed over the colored troops in the south, and how he and over 50 other colored officers, with from five to 25 years of military training were finally relieved of their commanding in France, and what he termed "90-day professors" and young West Pointers placed in their places.
He was very plain in his talk, giving dates and names of officers of the army. He told his audience that he had been told during a visit to Washington, while he was trying to get some satisfaction from the war department. He was also interested in business" and recently he was advised in Boston, after he had made several addresses on the war, "to lay down, that this thing would adjust itself." He said that he had been over 24 years in military service, and that at the close his record was a kick.
He told his co. L. was mustered the federal service on the sixth of April, 1917, and went to Fort Smith, New Hampshire, where it remained until July and then went to Framingham and to Ayer. On the 15th of August, Captain Pryor said that the first degree of American citizenship was detained from the Sixth regiment and sent to the Watertown arsenal and the company increased from 150 to 250 men to do work around the arsenal. In October the company went to Westfield, and then to Charleston in November. In the company was beaten by segregation. He was battled commander and he issued 42 passes a day for soldiers to leave camp. When the battalion was about to go overseas a committee met with Capt. Pryor and told him to Charles, the battalion and the conduct of men had advanced the black man's cause in this country 10 years.
Captain Pryor told of the removal of Major Walker from the Washington battalion of the 372d regiment, saying that he was told that he was sick, it must have been so, for the examining board of physicians found him disarmed and so his removal. He told of the treatment of the Negro officers on the transport, when ranking officers were put below and young lieutenants and "90 day professors" given the choice places on the berth deck, how colored officers were not allowed to enter the saloon and to be discriminated. When the officers complained to the master of the ship, he told them it was the orders of Colonel, Young of their regiment.
But Capt. Pryor said his regiment received proper credit when it got to France from a French general who said it was the best with one exception in France, and he said that in four months the front line officer received a 92 percent. The officer who gave it this mark had been a commanding officer for 35 years.
Capt. Pryor said that the men of his company had orders to never see a French woman can carry or - bind a soldier could carry and the orders which started in his company went right through the regiment, and the resultant kindly feeling of the French women towards the colored soldiers, had no doubt that the letters that had been written to this country. He told of his regiment being with the 63d and 55d French divisions and finally with the 157th division, and he knew that when the history of the regiment, that the colored soldier will get his just dues. He said that from the 15th of April till the 18th of August, when he was drummed out of command, he had only one man killed. He said that the colonel who succeeded in command slaughtered 61 men the first day afterwards.

AFRIGA A SYNONYM FOR OPPORTUNITY
Dr. Cassell Urges Hampton Students to go to Liberia For Real Democracy. Carricatures Condemned.
A. E. AEKY
Hampton, Va., Feb. 26.—That it is the duty of some Negro Americans to go to Africa and help build up a democracy in which there shall prevail international justice and good-will was the vigorous plea recently made by the Rev. Dr. N. H. B. Cassell, president of the College of Liberia, West Africa, to the Hampton Institute student body. Dr. Cassell said:
"God places a duty upon you Afro-Americans, to whom He has given these wonderful opportunities, to go into Africa and build Africa up and establish African moorcies, politicalities, in the army, and prove Liberia to be the open door-to democracy. That is the message which I bring to the Afro-Americans, and particularly to the younger Afro-Americans who are in school.
"Afro-Americans are not really African, but like to take the fact that there is a point of contact between themselves and the Republic of Liberia. They have been disposed to dissociate themselves from the African problems. In the methods they have pursued of finding the God in this world is the almighty dollar, possibly they have believed that God is a God of force, just as the Germans did. There is only one thing that is going to last everlastingly. If you want to do men, the help we host upon men, the lifting up of men."
President Cassell described the contributions which Africa has made to the literature of the world, to the arts and sciences, and to church history. He condemned much of the violence of Africa which have commonly appeared in geographies and histories.
THE NEW AFRICA
"He who follows history at present, he who reads the signs of the times must realize that Africa, in the readjustment which the world's great conference is going to be assigned its proper place; that its people are no longer to be exploited; that international justice and international good-will will be realized and exercised upon the same principle as personal justice. Africa is going to take her true place in the world's history.

Pan-African: Congress Outlines Code for Protection of Race.
Paris, Feb. 22.—The pan-African Congress, representing the Negro peoples of six different nations, has passed a resolution for presentation to the Peace Conference, giving the outcome of its deliberation.
It proposes that the Allied and associated powers establish an international code for the protection of Negroes, similar to the project-International labor code. Negroes have the ownership of as much land as can profitably be developed in countries inhabited by them; that slavery, enforced labor and corporal punishment be abolished, except in punishment for crimes; that they be guaranteed to every native child to learn to read and write its own language and also the language of the trustee nation; and that the trustee nation be responsible for the sanitary conditions in Negro countries, without discouraging collective or individual initiative.
The resolution covers regulation of the investment of coastal, granting of land, religious liberty and demands that Negroes have equitable representation in all the international institutions of the league of nations.

Next Census May Show that Windy City Has Largest 'Black Belt.' Another Migration Expected this Spring.
By The Associated Negro Press Chicago, Feb. 25.—(Special) Chicago, the second largest city in the nation, leads all others in Negro population, according to the latest and best information obtainable. Statistics gathered since the beginning of the migration more than two years ago, place the Negro population of the "Windy City" at 150,000. The section on the South Side formerly known as the "Black Belt" has spread in so many directions that the belt has increased in size until it is now a coat.
Section after section of the big city where white families formerly lived have been turned over to Negro residents because of the great demand for housing. May of these places run up in values to thousands of dollars, but members of the race are living in them and keeping them, in many instances, in much better condition than their former white occupants. However, there has in too many instances been a disproportionate number of females, and this matter is receiving the attention of civic workers.
Demand for labor, hitch wages and the awakening of the Negré through travels induced by the war, together with southern discrimination and synchisms, are doors inflow. While the labor conditions now are greatly affected by the war adjustment, problems, there is every reason to believe that 1919 will see another big migration, as soon as industrial questions are easier. With secretary of the Chicago Urban League, sold recently; "There have been few labor troubles, because the majority of the men employed are unionized. This probably has prevented troubles which otherwise might happen." "They have been some conflicted groups. Negré families established themselves, but no real racial trouble."
Washington, D. C., Feb. 26. John Sye who shot and almost instantly killed little, Lillian Holly while the latter was asleep in bed was indicted for murder by the Grand Jury yesterday.
Slyve explained that he had been at a dance and got drunk. He claims to have stumbled on the front steps, accidently discharging his pistol, the bullet going thru the door and striking the child.
West Virginia Legislature
Appropriates Huge Sum

Bills. Political Plums
Given to the Faithful.
BY J. C. GILMER
Charleston, W. Va., Feb. 24.—The prohibition against the exhibition during the period of the war of the "Birth of a Nation" and similar pictures and plays, put into effect last summer by an order of the Executive State Council of Defense, was continued indefinitely by the legislature, which in the measure drifted by 72. J. Caphart, one of the three colored members of the lower house. The law provides as a penalty not only for exhibiting but also for advertising such pictures and plays, a fine of not more than $1,000 and confined to no more than 20 days the latter at the discretion of the court.
Other legislation of special benefit to the race was the creation of the office of state supervisor of schools with school funds of $2,400 and for traveling expenses, and an advisory board to the state board of education to be composed of two citizens of color, the compensation each to be $1,000 a year and the advisory board, advisory board, acting, with the supervisory 'practically will have charge of all matters pertaining to the state's colored educational institutions. It authoritatively is required that it will be called upon to perform will be the recommending to the state board of education of a president for the West Virginia state where a change has been under consideration for some time.
In the matter of appropriations for the next two years the legislature was very liberal to the colored institutions. For the creation and maintenance of a hospital for colored insane $165,000 was awarded. The colored institutions was voted for land, buildings and current expenses of a colored doff and blind school. Other institutions and their appropriations are: colored tuberculosis sanitarium, $42,000; orphans' home, $43,000; the Colleague Institute, $146,000; the Colleague Institute, $67,000; Storer College (a private institution) $5,400; Barnett, Harrison, Mercer, and Lomax Hospitals (privately owned) each $2,500, a total of $508,000.
As with appropriations so was the design in handing out notices. There were not many notices, ranging from clerks to monitors and maids, and if any discrimination was shown in committee assignments, the colored members of the house of delegates benefacies. Mr. Nutter, of Kankan, forfeited and unappropriated lands, and insurance committees; Coleman, of Fayette on the forestry and conservation, penitentiary, labor, and medicine and sanitation; Capehart, of McDowell, on taxation and finance, and on insurance and immune institutions and public buildings, executive offices and library, and railroad committees.
ATTORNEY PENDLETON STILL HOPES TO SAVE
SNOWDEN'S LIFE
Albo Mr. Pendleton attorney for Snowden has filed his writs of certiorari and Janebus corpus with the United States Supreme Court, after having been refused in the court of local United States Court, no probate was granted. Several women from Amappala including Detective Grace Hum堡 came to the city to consult with Mr. Pendleton and his assistants, and up to a late hour today the Detective says he still has confidence that he will save Snowden.
To the Editor:
We want the public to know just how we are being treated, both soldiers and sailors. Mr. Frank Williams told you of conditions at this camp in last week's paper just as they are.
I was drafted last fall, and that I was going to get military training. I did, for one month, then I was taken to this forsaken place. newport News. Our treatment here, our sorrow and hearts. There is no democracy here, just hardship and injustice.

"If the Governor fails to commute the sentence of John Snowden, the condemned man will be hanged against the expression of the white man, the state will be colored people." This was the consensus of opinion of the high gathering of people, who crowded the private offices of Governor Harrington in the State at Annapolis last morning.
Some estimates go, as high as five hundred, but there was no doubt that at least four hundred people, mostly white, thronged the office. They were persons from all walks of life from the lowest. There were the wealthy like Mr. Spencer Morgan elegantly gowned, midshipman, cadets, soldiers and sailors. The business men of Annapolis led by Mr. James Monroe, owner of large real estate holdings, and president of the local Trust Company were people and farmers, both men and women. All of these were white. Shrinkled among them was a minority of fifty colored folks. These too, came from all walks of life, but not a one of them had a word to say. It seemed as if they had turned their cause back and turned their standing back to see how well their friends would lambast the Governor.
Lambast him they did. First of all R. Lee Bosley, one of the jurors that sat at Towson and convicted Snowden, presented a petition including the foreman as follows: "The undersigned, members of the jury that tried John Snowden for the murder of Mrs. Brandon at Annapolis, realizing the possibility of mistake in human affairs, convinced matter, feel that justice would be done, if the sentence in Snowden's case was commuted to life imprisonment, and we hereby petition the Governor to commute his scence to life imprisonment. John Bosley, Andrew G. Husbler, John E. Kloche, John G. Schmidt, John E. Andrew, Andrew H. Husbler, Wm. H. Timus, George O. Ritter, John E. Koener, Edmund A. Burk, Nathaniel H. Bortner, R. E. Lee Bosley, who presented a petition signed by nearly sixty of the leading white business men of Annapolis. He said that not a single colored person had signed the petition, and the best white people of the Annapolis wanted first, of all a computation of the sentence, and if the Governor could not see his way clear to grant this, then he might days, so that he could hardly chance to secure new evidence.
In reply to the Governor's invitation for any others to take the door, Professor H. L. Rice, a teacher at the Naval Academy read his position, Professor Rice is a sailorlist, and remarked that his smart told him that Snowden said that if Snowden had wrestled and fought with the dead woman Continued on Page 2
Oyster Bay, N. Y., Feb. 23. About fifty members of the 269th New York's colored heroes, visited the grave of Theodore Roosevelt, and one of them placed a large wreath on his grave while others stood at attention.
EXTRA!
SUPREME COURT REFUSES WRITS FOR SNOWDEN
Chief Justice White of the United States Supreme Court refused to grant a writ of cardiogram and hubeas corpus to Snowden's attorneys. This means that John Snowden will be hanged at dawn Friday morning.

PRESENT JIM
OROW ORDER
Charges Presented by Y.M. C.A. Secretary. Officers and Men Were Returning from France on the Olympic. Jim Crowed in the Dining Room. New York, Feb. 25.—Colored officers of the 355th infantry, a colored draft regiment, arrived on the Olympic. The charges they were made the charge of a "Jim Crow" order ahead of the ship. The charges were presented by James G. Wiley, a colored secretary of the C.A. and were submitted by Negro officers. State.
colored officers of the 365th Infantry, 317th Seminary Train, 357th Infantry and 359th Field Artillery have been greatly insulted by being grunted in a separate dining room once more properly, in the teem on board H. M. S. Olympic while shave silve tallenateurs and white captains and field officers of the armored nurses of enlisted soldier rank, Y. M. C. A. secretaries of soldier clerks are seated in main dining room with passengers. The demand of colored officers for fair play has been Grendhardt resulting in his dodging the issue by saying that the colored officers got the same service as in the main dining room. This paradox on democracy has impaired the great efforts of indignation among some of whom wear des Guerreux.
"Those the American nation proposes to stand for this insult to her officers who have fought so nobly? Twelve million of them, the world wants to know now. If the United States now to stand behind those principles which President Wilson has so well proposed at the peace conference, the unity of government and opportunity," General Gearhardt and Colonel George McMaster, of the 565th are both Southernners of the old school, with all its old traditions. "Feeling amused the officers of the residential flag and colors of the residential flag and colors of the Three Hundred and Sixty-fifth Industry were salvaged and lost. It is known that this is the result of resistance and has of regard for us was astonishing, to put it mildly."
Want 14th and 15th
Alabama, Ga., Feb. 27.—The effect of motion-wide prohibition upon, the country is being paralyzed in editorial comment with the holding of the 19th, 14th and 15th Amendments. The Validata (Ga.) Times (white) says: "In order to send another precedent of the same sort, we need only to go back to the thirteenth amendment, which destroyed many billions of money in staves with a stroke of the pen, providing for less compensation for slave holders than the eighteenth amendment provides for distillers, brewers and wine merchants.... If the institution of private property survived the thirteenth amendment it can survive the eighteenth." There is a growing determined effort that the fourteenth and fifteenth amendments must be enforced.

Bickett of North Carolina for the actions by officials of that state in securing the conviction and sentence of fifteen of sixteen men for attempting to take Russell Hitch, a Negro, from the jail at Winston-Salem on November 17 last and lynch him, the terms ranging from fourteen months to six years. The Association commends the officials from their action in the case and that that "the State of North Carolina will be enmiled by other states in this country in which mob violence and lynching prevail."
18.000 IN AFRICA
Tampa, Fl. Feb. 21. —The African Methodist Episcopal Church raised last year for missionary purposes more than fifty-fifth of all the funds. Des. 4. W. Franklin, missionary secretary of the church, yesterday afternoon in addressing the Missionary Meeting. "We have more than 8,000 members in South Africa; more than 2,200 in North Africa; and more than 1,200 in the West India islands. The fund raised provides for 410 missionaries in South Africa; 28 in West Africa, and ten in the West India islands."
Memphis, Tenn. Feb. 27.—From all indications, the campaign for President in 1920 is now on and promises to be the most extensive ever, with the nation. One of the real leaders to be rocked with the south, one of the younger men of wealth, education and aggressiveness is Robert R. Church of this city. Mr. Church is in the game of politics as a professor, and because he believes in the importance of interests of his race. He frankly admits that he aspires to be a real leader, not for selfish purposes, or for a mere job, but to get adages that are now denied the Negro. Every returning soldier is coming home with a new vision and grim determination to get the justice he was promised when he was fighting and bleeding on the battlefields of France. There is hesitation in saying that the "old line politicians" must step down, but for the soldier boys and the men of the younger generation.
EVERYBODY RIDES A BIKE AT PALM BEACH
Continued From Page One.
here Wednesday night, and when the members arrive they will find a well prepared church and people to take care of them. There are five Baptist Churches here, each of a different kind, two African Methodists, one Episcopal, and one Methodist Mission. They have a large institutional School, which has been brought about principally by the Northern people who come here in large numbers all through the winter season. They have also a small well appointed hospital. This hospital has been furnished and operated by a philanthropic group of Samurians, made up mostly of Northern people who, also, have a hospital for the whites. In this hospital I noticed colored nurses. The colored waiters here have their own quarters, well furnished and looked after. They have here a number of colored business houses, some of them doing very well.
There is, however, one unique feature of this place I have seen no where else. The only street car line in the city is operated on the grounds of the royal Pofinicaua, a small fortress of one small manor trooped by a mule. Everybody here rides a bicycle. Little and big, men and women, black and white, old and young. I have seen what is known in the South as some real good sized "black mammys" riding bicycles. If they were not "mammys they looked would be for them closer than on a bicycle. All along the streets are specially prepared racks, and one sees everywhere hundreds of bicycles parked just like automobiles are parked elsewhere. Colored people are everywhere and doing almost everything. They are indispensable, at least apparently, all the clothing and pressing establishments. As a matter of fact they are "Johnny-on-the-spot" in everything.
Nearly all the large hotels are on the East side of Lake Worth, quite a considerable body of water, and there are many built bridges and a ferry. West Palm Beach is that part of the town in which the other folks live, and everybody does business. The banks and large business as well as the railroads, are in West Palm Beach, and the hotels are that nearly, if not all, the colored people live on the West side. This section of Florida is semiprotrial and is almost past desription. Oranges, lemons, grape tomatoes, and oranges are other tropical fruits and flowers grow in protraion. Palms of all kinds and descriptions grow in abundance, and in many cases are distinguished by the descriptions of jungle land; and would not be surprised if any moment a lion or tiger would jump at you, or a bonn constrictor would reach out and bite you, or hasten his course around you, and proceed to swallow you whole.
The ocean here is as calm as a lake and is a beautiful emerald green of constantly changing boughs as the Southern sun shines upon its gently swelling leaves. You have enough of this and if my passport should arrive in time my next letter will be from Cuba.

BISHOPS' COUNCIL
CREATES COMMISSION
The action taken by the Council of Bishops of the A. M. E. Church at its last session, at Tampu, Fla., of far reaching interests and importance was to create a commission on all After War Problems, and for the government of which the following was adopted:
The articles in part provide for financing the commission from General Conference funds and:
"The Commission shall deal with all After War Problems affecting the moral, educational and economic interests of the members and adherents of our church in particular and of the race in general.
"The problem of overshadowing importance confronting us as present is the welfare of our church overseas on the territory to our homes. The result of the Kiu Klux Klan in Georgia, Tennessee and in communities in other southern states is not only deplorable, but points to the possibility of violent race conflict in the near future.
"That the commission shall collect and record data as to the contribution made to the conduct of the war by the A. M. E. Church, and be reasonably competent as a bureau of information on such subjects.

The announcement of the Associated Press that the Kuklux had extended their field of operations northward, and are now about to inaugurate a campaign of frightfulness in Pittsburgh turns out to be pure bunk.
It appears that the trouble in the Smoky City is no whit more grave than the trouble of certain local colored people who have recently moved into the nine and ten hundred blocks of North Stricker street. There as here, white residents were foolishly aroused because colored people had become able to purchase and live in homes outside of the section designated (in their minds) for Negroes.
Since the Supreme Court made city segregation measures of no force, some misguided whites still feel that they must use threats of violence to keep colored people "in their places." Hardly any city is free from this class of "crackers" who have brought their obsolete notions with them from Southern mud huts.
We want to command to Pittsburgh the example of certain local residents, who informed the police offensals of their intention to move on Stricker street, and asked for police protection. Police are now on guard as they ought to be and enforcing the law, which says that no man is good enough to tell another where he must live.
WHAT CAMPBELL WOULD HAVE SAID
Governor Harrington had the sympathy of the public crowd, that thronged his office in the State last Monday, by his abrupt and impatient dealing with the various speakers referred to present petitions.
One of those who was not allowed to speak and who was later gently urged to get out was Mr. M. R. Campbell, white, of Fork. Had he been allowed to speak, Mr. Cox is letter to one of the daily papers some time in index of what he might have said. Here are quotations.
Because he was handy, because he is black, S. must die—a victim of race prejudice, of a transient hate! Poor, helpless, rude, low-born, light, bewildered and nothing—nothing can save him now. With all the employ command, I hereby proclaim his trial a majeure, a fragrant travesty of justice.
The jury returned a verdict of first-degree murder 20 minutes' deliberation. Think of it! Justices O Justice, what crimes are committed name!
The difference between passing the Brandon home emerging from the front door thereof rests only a few feet. Hence the delusion (a rededulsion) of the State's star witness, saved her impressions from a window opposing Brandon home.
He so-called expert testimony revealed not just which counter术ial talent could not be published a reduction ad absurdum. But the moment of such testimony costs money—some poor Snowden never possessed. In adding black, he was broke—a heil of a comedy and enough to try the patience of any countrist humble Negro who survived the hellish froe will not "confess" for the simple reason: knows nothing about Mrs. Brandon's death, so white man would have been convicted on documentary evidence, upon arguments so urged, upon testimony so weak, fantastic and scary.
Mr. Campbell's views may be said by some time, yet the handling of the Snowden case beginning certainly justifies some people in making radical opinions, and expressing them.
Governor Harrington lost the sympathy of the great crowd, that thronged his office in the State House last Monday, by his abrupt and impatient manner of dealing with the various speakers who desired to present petitions.
One of those who was not allowed to speak at all, and who was later gently urged to get out of town was Mr. M. R. Campbell, white, of Forest Park. Had he been allowed to speak, Mr. Campbell's letter to one of the daily papers some time ago is an index of what he might have said. Here are some quotations.
Because he was handy, because he is black, Snowden must die—a victim of race prejudice, of blind insensate hate! Four, helpless, rude, low-born, untaught, bewildered and alone—nothing short of a miracle can save him now. With all the emphasis at my command, I hereby proclaim his trial a mockery, a farce, a flagrant travesty of justice.
The jury returned a verdict of first-degree murder after 20 minutes' deliberation. Think of it—20 minutes! O Justice, what crimes are committed in thy name!
The difference between passing the Brandon home and emerging from the front door thereof represents only a few feet. Hence the delusion (a well-fostered delusion) of the State's star witness, who received her impressions from a window opposite the Brandon home.
The so-called expert testimony revealed nothing against which counter merical talent could not have established a reductio ad absurdum. But the employment of such testimony costs money—something that poor Snowden never possessed. In addition to being black, he was broke—a heil of a combination and enough to try the patience of any court!
This humble Negro who survived the hellish third degree will not "confess" for the simple reason that he knows nothing about Mrs. Brandon's death.
No white man would have been convicted on such fragmentary evidence, upon augments so unsuainted, upon testimony so weak, fantasistic and remote.
Mr. Campbell's views may be said by some to be extreme, yet the handling of the Snowden case from the beginning certainly justifies some people in nurturing radical opinions, and expressing them.

HOME AGAIN
there are just two things that can be done using soldiers. First they should be wielded secondly they should be given a job. flags were flying and houses and stores were used when the news of victory came, cough decorate and unfurl our flags again, now boys are home, our boys. There are some waiting for the street parade and official face, but meantime our boys are back, and that we gave for victory, they only read a
There are just two things that can be done for training soldiers. First they should be welcomed, and secondly they should be given a job. Flags were flying and houses and stores were decorated when the news of victory came, ought we not decorate and unfurl our flags again, now that the boys are home, our boys. There are some who are walking for the street parade and official welcome, but meantime our boys are back, and the sheer that we gave for victory, they only read about.
Show your welcome by your "welcome cards" and "old glory" flying from the front window.
This is the first and the second is to find a job for the returning hero. His medals and his wounds ought to make it easier for him to get his old job back. One of the things that the returning soldier dreads is to find his old place occupied by another, while his employer turns the cold shoulder. So many employers were quick to put out their service flag indicating how many men they had "sacrificed for the cause." Now these same employers ought to be as glad to hang up other service flags indicating how many men have fought for the cause and have come back to their old jobs.
The soldiers have been "over there" for us. As they come home they will appreciate a word of welcome, but most of all they will appreciate a job.
CANNON FOR BALTIMORE
The First Separate Company as a part of the 372 Infantry was brigaded with the French in their fighting around Verdun, Hill 304 and in the Argonne. This regiment now at Camp Meade, captured from the Huns, 600 prisoners, 350 machine guns, and 70 cannon. Eighty of these soldiers wear either the Distinguished Service Cross or the War Cross of the French, and in addition the French changed the name of Hill 304 to Hill 372nd in their honor. Now that Congress has been busy for some time presenting captured cannon to various cities and towns in the country, the question naturally arises, is it not possible to have one or two of the 700 cannon, brought to this city and placed in one of the public squares as a permanent memorial to the gallantry and bravery of the old First Separate Company in the Great War?
Several persons have that well of the idea and of course the proposal goes big with the boys themselves, but can enthusiasm enough be generated to tell the truth. If it can, then these cannon
would stand as the first and only memorial to colored soldiers ever erected in the city of Baltimore.
The Mount Street Hospital, sometimes called the Northwest Hospital is soliciting subscriptions from colored persons over the telephone, and in return is offering the colored people of the city beds and medical treatment. Just now the institution is closed but the campaign for money is going on, and it is reported that several persons have been persuaded to make subscriptions. At the Hospital office the person in charge knew nothing of the promise of accommodations for colored people, and could give no assurance that this would be done. Under the circumstances, it would seem good advice to withhold contributions until the hospital authorities can issue an official statement. The only hospital in the city or state that treated colored people as they ought to be treated is Provident Hospital, and any persons, who have funds for charitable purposes could hardly invest them at a better advantage than there. There are no Jim crow wards and beds at Provident.
One of the things that visitors to Charleston, South Carolina, never could understand is why they only had three colored schools, and why these were taught by white teachers.
At the end of this school year one part of the anomaly will be abolished. After thirty-two years of fighting, the fifty-two white teachers in colored schools will be asked to walk out, and next year colored teachers will take their places.
The strange part about it is that the city of Charleston took this action of placing colored teachers in colored only when the state legislature threatened to pass a law forbidding white teachers for colored pupils after 1919.
A British clergymen threw a bomb into a ministers meeting recently when he offered an amendment to the baptismal service to eliminate the words "as it was in the days of Noah." The clergyman said he did not believe in the story of Noah, and while he was about it he remarked that furthermore he did not believe in the story of the Garden of Eden. Such a man as this would not be worried by the problem of how Cain got his wife.
Japan is going to demand the removal of racial discrimination against the yellow people. This will be one of the important things considered at the Peace Conference. Japan's reasons are that now Japan is one of the five great powers and therefore fully entitled to demand equality in all respects. One thing is certain to be the outcome, if the League of Nations comes into existence, then America will have to stop discriminating against Japanese. One of these days some Negro nation will be strong enough to demand the same thing for colored people in the United States.
"The colored woman of two years ago," says a Y. W. C. A. authority "could be found only in domestic service. Since the war I find her in every sort of occupation where women are employed." From domestic service to industrial service she the change two years have effected and colored women are now doing everything from picking nuts to scrapping iron People who regard this change as marvelous need only look two years into the future, when colored women like all others will be wielding the ballot.
Governor Harrington said the other day that a "delegation" of 150 colored men visited him recently and promised him support. In case he decided to run for Governor again. Either the "delegation or the Governor must have been dreaming.
A colored conscientious objector in prison at Fort Leavenworth, Kansas, explaining to the Congressional Inquiry Committee why he was there said "God gave us this country, why fight for it." Certainly good logic, but very poor common sense.
THE PEOPLE'S FORUM
Does Not Agree With
As a loyal race man, I do not subserve to the view expressed by Supervisor in the Colored Teachers' Year Book, in which he asserts that the colored people are clamoring for second chance. I am not aware of the motive or motives that prompt me to choose the choice of subject and subject matter for treatment in a book that will undoubtedly be as well as our friends, but whatever the motive it certainly loses its force when placed over against race loyal
Whatever views we, as individual members of the race may entertain, with respect to race, we should not be predicated of the entire race, in fact it is far better to inhibit our individual experiences of the private expression of them that is intimate to the best interests of the race as a whole. For social equality, as used by our enemies, implies that the chief aim and ambition of colored people is to associate with white people expresses or implies that such a desire really exists among his people, his view, in a measure, justifies, approves and entertains by our enemies. Social equality is the scarcrow that has been an effective barrier to American civilization from the most menial to the most honorable. It has been, and still remains, one of our enemies, and they have made and are still making most effective use of it wherever and whenever they God forbid that a member of the race should do or say anything that may in the remotest or slightest degree contribute to the
I hold that the term social equality is inapplicable in the sense that it is desirable to associate with white people. A may desire on the part of colored people to associate with white people. A may desire on the part of colored people to associate with white people. If B is an intelligent, upright Christian citizen or gentleman, he is not only As equal but perhaps not equal without association and conversely, there may be association without equality. He never and wherever our people insist upon having equal educational opportunities, equal accommodations on common carriers, equal representation in city, state and national affairs, equality before the law, equal opportunities that satisfies their ideals and is in keeping with their means and station in life—in short—whenever they are admirations and a tendency toward higher ideals—qualities that are inherent in every intelligent American citizen to mean that our people are seeking social equality. that is, association with the white people of the
Those who make this chance against us, know that it is without foundation to keep colored people from enjoying and sharing the privileges to which they, as American citizens, are entitled to a condition of burglary. What I have said should not in any way be construed as an attack upon the people of the United States that I do not endorse or subscribe to the view expressed in his article as it appears in the Teachers Year Book (colored).

Professor Owens Answers His Critics
To the Editor:
As a minister in accord with all that we need to make a morally strong and useful people of my race, I would not for once attempt, knowingly, to say that I have given my people the bringing of my people to their rightful place as citizens of this republic to which they have given vassalage. Who are prepared, strong in mind, in action, fervent in our endeavor too often forget the masses of the people of our country. Help not in the sense of making a show-off, personal jealousies and bickering but is the sense of the truth stated in the story of the Gods.
To this end, I wrote the article appearing in the Teachers' Year Book not for Southern white men or Northern white men, not for those men and women of my race who are giving their very lives to bring the people up; but for the fellow who is camouflaging, seeking personal glory and gain and robbing the people. The last mentioned is the Judas, selling out for material favors and political pull and forgetting that "honestly urges us to give a traction more than we receive and keeps us safe on the value of "thine and mine." Such as the fellow who climbs up on the backs of others and when his ambitions are satisfied, looks back up on the tolling untrained masses and cry "poor helpless creatures." Term me as a "false friend." Judas or such like, I am willing and trying to give all that I possess in thought, word and deed to my race, trusting they may see me in the right, "for as the body without the spirit is dead, so faith without works is also dead," and I have faith in my race.

The Negro Regulars
Why has not somebody been interested in the treatment of the Nexpo regular troops 36th Infantry and the 9th and 10th Cavalry Regiments were known to be the "crack" troops of the United States. Accordingly, the American Army kept them out of the war. Theorec Roosevelt and General Wood were not the only efficient powers who were not able to disarm the French.
We kept these regulars, our best Negro troops, out of the war. And many white officers say that they were not only the best Negro troops but, the best troops, of the United States Army. Colonel Charles Young was one of them and we retired him.
Were we afraid that these black men would shine too quickly and too brightly in Europe? We sent plenty raw Negro boys who had never thrived on a bayonet or smelled powder before, except in fun or training. And, bless me, these inexperienced Negroes went over there and "shined" anyhow. And that is where we made our mistake: had we sent the Tenth Cavalry, the United States Army could have taken most of the credit for what they did, and could have said that it was all due to the "exceptional" training which these troops had had for fifty years, being "permitted" to fight for America in the Wild West, in Cuba, in the Philippines and in Mexico. We could have licked our satisfied chops and said: "The credit is not due to the Negro, but it is all due to the training which they received under their white officers."
Editor Afro-American Baltimore, Md.
But when we sent over the Fifteenth New York, black boys picked up on the streets of Harlem a few months before they were sent, and when we sent the Eighth Illinois black boys who flocked to Chicago from all parts of the South, in search of better wares and treatment—we then and there gassed our right and stopped ourselves from "explaining the great valor of these Negroes." We must give them straight and unqualified credit. They are brave men. The New York daily papers have proclaimed them, with the approval of white army officers, as being not only the best troops in the late war, but the best troops that ever did war. These New York papers, edited by white men, forgot to make an exception even of a European's Old Guard or Caesar's Famous Tenth Legion, when they bened the black-faced "hell fighters" returning ablaze with the medals and other honors of war. The Fifteenth New York went over the top twice on the day when the armistice was signed—and got up such a speed of shooting that they could not stop for fully five minutes after the hour for the armistice.
The Germans never will forget these boys. They may hate Africa but cannot scorn her any anguish. And she will not be scorned in that their "greener" sons bore off the honors. Like son, like sire. WILLIAM BICKER

Editor of the Afro-American. Dear sir:—
This is to let you know also of the condition of this colored battalion of Camp Sevier, S. C. which is made up practically of men from Baltimore and the District of Columbia. We sincerely desire to be published in your paper, which includes them, particularly the same with us, as we have read in your paper, the condition of the men of Camp Stuart, Va. and Camp Johnston, Florida. These men are being also forced to work for civilian contractors and in all kind of weather; under surplus officers. We are being worked for contractors under disbanded white guilders in order to make us believe that we are still working for the U. S. Government. Men who are charged with any disobedience which would be a company punishment offense, they are fined, and from ten to fifteen dollars taken out of their salary. We wish that you will try and interest the people of Baltimore and the District of Columbia in conditions that they may try to remedy them, through investigation.

Rotten Conditions At Camp Eustis
To the Editor:
We wish to say that the colored men in the camp at Eustis, Va. are not treated as soldiers of the United States. If we were prisoners we could not be treated worse. We are not treated as soldiers of recreations. We were given a Y. M. C. A. in "p" block and were Jim Crowed in the building three nights out of the week.
A chaplain was sent to address his hearing course to his speech he heard the "nigger" never had a shirt, comb, toothbrush, soap or shoes until Uncle Sam drafted him into the army.
We have also discovered that the Y. M. C. A. is not a friend to the colored soldier. Although we are camp and far away from our home towns they do not care for us.
The Knights of Councus opened their doors to us and we have enjoyed the hospitality of their but until February 21st when Capt. Cook asked all the honored building to leave the building. He told the K. of C. Secretary that if he could not keep the Negroes out of the building he would close it. This last act on the part of Capt. Cook leaves us no place to go in the camp.
Aside from the fact that we are excluded from all the recreation buildings in the camp we are constantly humiliated by being called Hammett. J. Scott, but have received no decision on the matter.
Of times we receive insufficient
food thouh we are doing work for
which civilians receive from $4,000
A number of the soldiers have applied for discharges under circular 77, but they have all been told that they could not be spared from the organization. We have had a fight. When we were detail we go with a white sergeant who is armed with a gun. Let us ask you a question. Are we soldiers of the U. S. A. or are we prisoners or are we soldiers who do our bit but now that the war is over we feel as though we should be discharged. We want to return to our wives and children, mothers, fathers, brothers and sweethearts. There are boys here from Earlham, D. C. and all parts of the South.
When a man is reported sick he is given pills three times a day and made to do guard duty, nor is he excused from his seven days of work. We are hoping that Congress will do something in our case.
Should Not Have Mentioned Names of Colored Women
February 23, 1918.
I wish to call your attention to an article I read in the Friday edition of the Evening News, in reference to the investigation and trial of Supt. Lankford of the House of Supremes for the case "What Eight Women Saw at the House of Correction." This investigation is headed and started by the Board of Prison Control or a Society of Prison Reform, for the interest and good society. The primary organization is to return fallen men and women back to society, reformed. It is strongly noted in this article that only the names of the four colored women, who were witnesses, were used. In my opinion the tree uses names that the women will expose to further torture, and defeat the purpose for which the Board of Prison Control stands. For with the exposure of the names, the society is giving public attention to a blight upon what might be a better future, since one of the women is only 19 years of age.

LINCOLN TRIUMPHS
OVER HAMPTON
Hampton, Va., Feb. 22.—In a fast and exciting basketball game played in Hampton's gymnasium on Saturday, February 22nd, (afternoon). Hampton institute bowed to Lincoln University to receive Indiana's quintet journeyed from its University to the xr-tamed Institute and met its sons before a crowd of nearly a thousand enthusiasts. The game was clean and spirted and at no time less intense than the interest or abated cheering on the part of the ardent rooters. Lincoln made the first basket and kept ahead until a few minutes before the end of the first half, when Hampton with a great effort did the score 1-1. In the second period, as exciting as the first, if not more so; for Hampton did succeed in coming up and forging ahead for two points at the middle of the second period; but her success was short-lived. The Pennsylvaniaans show their determination in the shooting of Butler and Wheatland and the guarding of Boozer and Thompkins, coupled with the ubiquity of Henderson was quite disconcerting to the 'dwellers by the sea'.

Y Team Defeated
February 22 seems to mean nothing along the winning line for the local "Y" Big Five. The basket ball team of D. H. S. Washington journeyed here and took away one of the freestest games ever played in this city. The local boys outpassed them but their shots were wide. The team's right eye opened his eyes much wider. His all over now but wait. The blood is in the eyes of the right eye will tell the tale. The crack local combination was too slow in finding the goals. In the first half the boys broke hoose, but in Washington on top. In the second half the boys broke hoose, but it was Butler, Harris and Harris played a sterling game of baffl. As a whole the team was on the best of the best to receive knocks. The final score was: Washington 17, "Y" Big Five 12.

She claims to have been trying to unite her rivals for her fare, and the conductor told her that she died that she was trying to tell that he was wrong and was ordered to shut her mouth. This she refused to do and then struck her, showing it into the skull bone. He then drew his revolver, when the motorman rush to the scene, struck her crazy. This saved her life.

Concerning Your Hair
The Invention of a Chemist
You probably have tried all sorts of remedies on your scalp without getting better, have become discouraged and lost confidence in all hair remedies. Thousands of people use Quinasea on their scalp, and have been so pleased with the result they would never again waste their time. Quinasea is not an ordinary pomade it is highly medicated and is a real hair nourisher. It nourishes the roots of the hair, saunting a natural growth of long, straight hair. It will make coarse, stubborn hair up in the style desired. Quinasea will positively allay itching of the scalp, and is the cause of most hair and scalp troubles. To get best results from the use of Quinasea, apply it to the scalp every two weeks with Sebelyn Quinasea, a soap made entirely of pure vegetable oils. Quinasea fatties the scalp, and it cleanser. It leaves the hair soft and duffy and imparts a refreshing feel to the scalp unguarded by any other shampoo.
Insist on getting Seeby's Quinacan and Quinacanan, asking for them by their full names. Please is life each. If your drugstor or dealer does not stock these two articles, ask him to obtain them from his wholesaler for you, or send us the price, and we will mail them to you direct.
